In the "Focal Pont" article, Fred Meyers described his research in what feature of the August 21, 2017 totall solar eclipse?
OK, pencils down. Let's trade with a neighbor and check one another. Here are the correct answers and your "neighbor" who got the correct answer on my Periscope broadcast on July 16, from 8:00 am (eastern US) to 9:00.
Correct Answers……..Periscope Winners:
Total solar eclipse………. @katimus: (page 4) Did you see the total solar eclipse last August? Many Americans traveled to the path of totality. Barbara and I went to Columbia South Carolina for the event. I spoke to a group at the UU church there, then we went outside and enjoyed the eclipse.
Geometric parallax…….. @speear40: (p. 9) All the other methods, spectroscopic parallax, using variable stars, using supernova, are built on assumptions and parallax. Geometric parallax is the only method we are confident in.
Click here to view an animated 3D view of the sky created using Gaia's DR2.
Photosphere……@: (p. 15) The photosphere of the Sun is the layer we see. Blow that are the convective and radiative Zones, and the core in the middle. Above the photoshere are the chromosphere and corona.
Mexico…….@stevieray1986, USA….………@hellopeepel . Canada……@.katimus: (p. 21) . Upon further reflection, there are three correct answers to this question. Any one of them is correct. The eclipse will begin south of the Hawaiian Islands in the Pacific Ocean. Then cut across Mexico, entering Texas, leaving thru New York and cutting thru eastern Canada.
orange…………….@speear40 ( p. 30) Orange lunar soil? Upon inspection back on Earth, scientists figured the orange soil was volcanic beads, "twisted breccia cemented together by meteorite impacts."
water………..@BenSpiers: (p. 30) . Scientists expected to find zero parts water per million parts of lunar soil. Instead, Saal found up to 1,410 parts per million . The existence of watere on the Moon really threw a monkey-wrench into the Giant Impact model of the origin of the Moon.
emission lines.……….. @speear40: (p. 35) This indicates a cloud of gas that is shining on it's own energy. Finding double ionized oxygen indicates the highly evolved nature of planetary nebula.
……….. @17romancer: Jupiter.……….. @Steelman: Mars.……….. @Stevieray1986: (p. 46-47) from the West horizon to east, find Venus near Spica, Jupiter near Alpha Librae, Saturn near M8 and Mars towards the west. No one mentioned the ringed planet.
Perseid meteor shower………..@BenSpers (p. 48-59) For information about recording and reporting meteor observations, click here.
volcanic……..@Steelman: (p.48-49) A hundred years ago, many thought the craters on the Moon were volcanic in origin. During the Apollo program, we began to realize they were really impact craters. Almost all of them. Except for a very few, including this odd little thing in Mare Nubium. What evidence s there that it is volcanic?
William Huggins…………no one: (p. 61) After learning about Bunsun and Kirschoffs lab experiments, Huggins turned his prism to the Cat's Eye Nebula. There he discovered emission lines. (See question 7 above.)
Temperature…………@no one:

Lucrative small companies can quickly go out of business if they lack money. Likewise, unprofitable unprof small companies can be survived for a long time if they have a good money balance. Simply puts, money is the life blood of American small businesses.
Small Business Loans in Model, Colorado
Naturally, when times are difficult, failure to obtain capital to pay daily operating costs frequently becomes a source of worry, anxiety and distraction for small business owners.
In these cases, many small company owners think about looking for short-term financing.
Small Business Loans in Model, Colorado
Regrettably, most of big city and town traditional lending institutions have rigid and strict requirements that their clients must fulfill.
Because of this, there is 4 particular features that are required by those seeking company funding.
Easy credit approval:
Companies have a separate credit rating from business owner. Even if the business owner has a high credit rating, the business might not have an established credit history (particularly if freshly developed). For that reason, potential lending institutions have to use solutions with that take business owner's individual credit into consideration which accepts applicants with less than ideal credit.
Quick Financing Time:
Usually, when a company is seeking out a loan, they have operating expenses that they have to have the ability to pay within the next 7-14 days (such as payroll and providers). As such, loans that take weeks to be authorized and finances just aren't suitable to most businesses requirements
No Red Tape:
Lots of conventional lending institutions needs months of bank declarations and years of tax returns to be able to process a loan application. While this might not be a big deal to a well-established company, it's not extremely useful for a brand-new business that has actually beened around for 6 months to a year
Small Business Friendly:
Usually, physical lenders just service organisations doing 20k or more in regular monthly profits. This disqualifies smaller sized companies doing 10k-15k in month-to-month profits.
Because of the strict abovementioned qualification criteria imposed by conventional lenders, more and more entrepreneur are relying on the myriad of online loaning options now available to small business owners in Model, Colorado
GoTorro Small Business Loans provides rapid financing in just 48 hours, of amounts varying from $10,000 – $500,000 to customers that fulfill the following basic qualification requirements:

Title: How to Rescue a Rake (The Book Club Belles Society series)
Genre: Historical Romance/Regency
Author: Jayne Fresina
Publisher: Sourcebooks Casablanca, Jan. 5, 2016
Pages: 384
Source: Free for review from the publisher
Rating: 4
Sexy Rating: 4
Description from Amazon.com:
Reject his marriage proposal Nathaniel Sherringham has returned to Hawcombe Prior a changed man. Gone is the reckless rake who went out on a limb to propose to Diana Makepiece three years ago. Now Nate's mysterious new wealth has the town's rumor mill spinning. To stir things up (and get Diana's attention), Nate boldly announces his plans to marry "any suitable girl" under the age of 25.
Run away Diana, now 27 and still single, is acutely aware of Nate's return. When her mother suggests a trip to visit a cousin in Bath, Diana leaps at the chance to escape the heartbreak and regret she can't help but feel in Nate's presence…and avoid his irritating charade to find a bride.
But for Nate, Diana has always been the one. He might just have to follow her to Bath and once again lay his heart on the line to win her attention-and her heart.
The Book Club Belles Society: Before the Kiss: A Book Club Belles Society Novella Once Upon a Kiss Sinfully Ever After How to Rescue a Rake
This novel is based on the Jane Austen novel Persuasion. Ms. Fresina liberally peppers the book with quotes from this classic. Nate Sherringham was cruelly rejected when he proposed to Diana Makepiece three years ago. He left Hawcombe Prior to heal his wounded heart and make something of himself. Diana, did love Nate but thought him too frivolous and unsettled to marry him and he left town without even a "good-bye" which made her furious.
We have the couple three years later still angry. Nate is angry because he was summarily rejected and Diana is angry still because she thinks him a flirt and immature. They are both in high dungeon but at the same time overwhelmingly attracted to one another. There is a scheming mother who we dislike for her interference and then she redeems herself by books end.
Ms Fresina has given us marvelous characterization with scenes that ring true to the Regency Era. Because of the addition of the Austen' quotes we can see the comparison to that classic work. We are treated to a follow-up of the members of the Book Club Belles Society that we have met in preceding books. I can recommend this book to HR fans. This is a standalone novel with reference to past books in the series.

|If you are planning to take your acoustic guitar, mandolin, banjo or ukulele to a gig out of town or on vacation you may have some concerns about how the airlines will treat your prized possession. Since 2014 the Federal Aviation Administration rules require that airlines allow passengers to treat a musical instrument case as one of your carry-ons so long as it fits in the overhead bins or other on-board storage areas, subject to available space. Most acoustic stringed instrument gig bags and cases (not including cellos and double basses) will fit overhead except on commuter flights or where other smaller planes are involved. Checking with the airline to confirm policy and arriving early to capture overhead space are both good practices.
If you prefer to send your instrument through as you would luggage or you are concerned that the airline might prevent carrying on at the last minute, there are two good options. You can "gate check" which means the instrument will be hand loaded last and taken off first eliminating the potential for damage on conveyor belts or you can purchase hardened cases which are designed to withstand the rough treatment sometimes attributed to airport baggage handling.

Wenger: The surprise news on Oliver Giroud
As we eagerly await the game between Arsenal and Chelsea, Arsene Wenger has made some revelations about his key striker Oliver Giroud.
Giroud had been sidelined with a toe injury and it was suggested by Arsene Wenger earlier this week that the French goal poacher would not be available for selection today.
However, the Arsenal manager has now revealed that the French international could actually play on today as long he passes a late fitness test.
"We have no new injuries [ahead of Chelsea game]. Olivier Giroud has a test to see if he can be involved [on Saturday], he had a good training session [on Thursday] so he is really the only one who could come back.
"A little bit [ahead of schedule], yes, because I thought that he would be short for [the Chelsea game]. But we will see how he comes out of today's training session."

I work with old books, maps, prints; anything on paper, sometimes with the addition of small objects, stitching or colouring. My studio is in Folkestone's Creative Quarter. I started out as a language teacher but, finding something missing, went back to college and did a Fine Art Textiles degree and have since taught Art, run workshops, projects and made my own work. I have been working as a full-time artist now for about 10 years.
Website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
[clickToTweet tweet="'Doing something small everyday... usually turns into something worthwhile' @thurlew" quote="'Doing something small everyday, even when you are feeling blocked; usually turns into something worthwhile' - Thurle Wright"]
Career Summary
I feel really lucky to be able to make my own work and that people like my work enough to support me. Going into my studio in the mornings is usually a release and a pleasure, despite the hard work. This time of working quietly on my own projects, especially one they're on the go, has been the best phase of my career so far. Previously I have worked on large community projects, in schools, universities, with galleries and festivals. A residency in India, followed by an exhibition at The V&A Museum of Childhood remains a highlight. It was also wonderful to know my work was bought by The National Library of Queensland for their collection. I enjoy both the teaching and making side of things and have phases of both, though find it very hard to combine them. Must learn![/fusion_text][fusion_code]Jmx0O2JyJmd0Ow==[/fusion_code][fusion_text]
Working Environment
Weirdly enough, the most productive time for me is often in the bath or when I'm not actually trying to think about work. That's when I get ideas and make connections. I work most days from about 10am til 3pm and then again later in the evening when all is quiet. My current studio is the best I've ever had; warm, quiet and light. It's hard working on your own sometimes and maintaining focus. Also tricky, is balancing the domestic side of my life with 'work' as it all tends to blend into one. Think rather than fight this, I must go with the flow more. Watch this space! Keeping track of all the admin side of things is also not a strong point. I have recently become dependent on a wonderful studio assistant, a few hours a week, who helps with all this.
Method and Approach
It is hard to define any one particular process, style or theme in my work but I am often categorized as a book or paper artist. My works are usually made from multiples of cut, folded or stitched text and images taken from books. They are intricate, labour-intensive, usually delicate, perhaps slightly obsessive. Ideas usually begin with a book. I try and translate the written words of the book into the feeling it gives me when I read it. Sometimes it works the other way around; I have the idea of a pattern/shape/format first and then find a book that fits the idea; hard to explain... But, the books I usually work with are those that reflect my own interest in language and learning (classic novels, set texts, school atlases, dictionaries etc). The time scale to complete a work varies hugely from a few days to a few months. Sometimes I make quite large-scale installations and wall-pieces. Most of the work is in the preparation and thinking.
Marketing and Promotion
Marketing and promotion is, for me, the worst part of my job. I really don't enjoy it and am not good it. I am fortunate to have a few galleries who help with this, both here and overseas. I try maintain a presence on social media but to be honest I would rather be making work (wouldn't we all!). Instagram is probably the most immediate/effective tool for me though I'm not sure I make the best use of it. I am inspired by looking at other artists' work though and keeping up with shows/exhibitions etc. Keeping in touch with other artists who are better at such things is also useful. Word of mouth is still a great resource in this age! Making more time for this is one of my 'to be improved' targets... (hence doing this Blog interview for Ashleigh).
Exhibitions and Shows
Most of my work is exhibited in London, through commercial galleries. I moved to Folkestone five years ago and have recently shown work locally, which I have really enjoyed as it links me to the community and has brought me some local commissions and connections; much needed to keep sane. I also show in various specific Book Art exhibitions (Lithuanian Book Arts Triennial, 'Between the Sheets' in Australia) and taken part in public art festivals, most recently in Norfolk and Romney Marsh. These are good quality curated exhibitions and a good means of exposure to a wide audience. I try not to enter competitions where you have to pay to enter; it's hard enough making a living as an artist without having to pay people to look at your work. When I started out, I did do artist fairs (Battersea, Islington) which was hard work but useful and was how my first galleries found me (it never seemed to work approaching galleries?).
Obstacles and Challenges
Keeping faith in what I am doing has always been a challenge; valuing it and not giving in and getting 'a real job'. I suppose artists are often their own worst critics. Financially I have had to be brave and trust that something will turn up. It usually does but it often involves juggling and feeling quite insecure (on going!). Being clear about which (paid) work or applications are going to help my career and which are just because I'm feeling anxious or wanting to please. Knowing when a work is finished, whether it is any good and how to present it continues to be a challenge. As does balancing home life with work. Can't say I have overcome any of these challenges yet. Having a studio assistant a few hours a week has helped enormously in terms of talking things through and keeping track of things (my own head can be quite a solitary and convoluted place!). Oh, and taking time for long walks/baths and having 'tidying days' (just not too many!).
Tips and Advice
Tips for artists starting out? Hmmm... I'm not sure if 'starting out' ever ends. It's an on going learning curve as our practice develops. I am still learning/changing and have a long way to go. I have noticed though that things go in cycles, like moods. The skill to ride through it all and keep true to the need to make is the hardest but most important. Trying not to worry about what people think (impossible when doing commissions!). Doing something small everyday, even when you are feeling blocked; usually turns into something worthwhile (thanks Dad). Being really flexible and open to opportunities; something good usually comes from any endeavor even if it is not what was expected. Allowing yourself down-time. Taking time to reflect; write, draw, doodle. Maintaining a strong network of colleagues or people interested in talking about your work. Looking at other artists who inspire you, going to exhibitions... Oh, and being playful. I must remember that! Tra la!

Vacation feeling for the stage and at home!
We see a ukulele, and we naturally start dreaming about Hawaii and its beautiful sun, beach, sea, hula and surfing, It truly is paradise!
A dream for soloists
The Classic Cantabile UT-260PU S is a very beautifully made tenor ukulele with built-in pickup. The tenor ukulele is the second largest and a very popular model. The top of the UT-260PU S is made of solid spruce and gives the sound a beautiful shape. The tenor ukulele is very popular with soloists. Traditionally, the tenor ukulele has an E-A-F#-C# (A tuning). But here the instrument is tuned in G-C-E-A just like the soprano ukulele. With a low-G string, this instrument has a greater solo range.
Top quality with compact size
With its smooth guitar mechanics, tuning the ukulele is a child's play. The ukulele is equipped with nylon strings. Its compact size makes it perfect for travel, and it can be easily stored in a backpack.
Pickup with 3-band EQ
A pickup is built into this instrument which includes a 3-band equalizer (treble/mid/treble) and tuner. Thus, the ukulele can also be amplified by guitar amplifiers/PA speakers. The 9V block battery required for the pickup is included in the delivery.
Conclusion: an awesome instrument with a great sound!

In an interview for his 2nd solo mini album 'Want,' Taemin opened up about the late SHINee member Jonghyun.
It's been a bit over a year since Jonghyun tragically passed away. Regarding his absence, Taemin said, "From time to time, I suddenly feel his emptiness. It comes to mind out of nowhere." Taemin explained he's okay and has got himself together now, however, "he suddenly comes to mind sometimes."
Taemin also talked about SHINee promoting as a 4-member group. He said, "Last year, SHINee released 3 albums. We were more like, 'Let's show rather than hide.' We (the members) told one another that we will be the same so we want people to treat us the same too."

Spent today working on fitting the seat and the bag underneath it. It took a lot of effort, but the end result looks really good. I used a couple of worn out brackets, the kind you'd use to make a shelf, for support to make sure the saddle won't break in half (wood core, remember?) and made a simple arm out of some left over sheet metal. The arm allows me to lift the saddle as you would the hood of a car after just removing two bolts. Makes for easy access to battery / wiring and carb.
I didn't take her out for a ride this weekend. I'm waiting for that exhaust wrap still before I make the final assembly of the exhaust system. According to the online tracker, the package has been sitting in Mexico City for almost two weeks... I am really looking forward to getting her back on the road though.
Future projects will likely include:
- Cutting her tail. She's got a big behind.
- Rewiring everything. Current wiring is a mess and it looks as if only half of the wires and connectors are being used. And a lot of them look as if they'd fall apart any minute. I'd look into a simpler way of wiring. Only the essentials. And thicker wires. You know how we feel about reliability.
- New handlebars. And mirrors, current ones are hideous. New turn lights of modification of current ones.
- New, meaner wheels. She looks as if she wants knobbly dual purpose wheels.
- New paint. I'm thinking grey.
But she is getting there. Starting to look dirt road back street worthy.
Apart from motorcycle mechanics, we've been working on a big order for ulbator. So no time for life. My new babe will also have a saying in a future ulbator project so her appearing here is not at all out of place.
We really want to encourage all of our readers taking up motorcycling and motorcycle maintenance and mechanics as a hobby. So far, I've been wrenching more than I've been riding but it is a lot more fun than working on a car. And a lot easier. Furthermore, it makes for a nice setting for a few beers and a couple of cigarettes. And it provides something to do while plowing through hours of country rock and hair metal. Oh, and your ol' lady won't like it so she'll leave you alone. No nagging from them womenfolk while you're out there.

2019-12-23 (URGENCE NEWS) | Welcome! Today I did some analysis on Tortoise Pipeline & Energy Fund, Inc. based on how it has behaved over the past few trading sessions. First of all, please note that this is technical analysis only (ie. analyzing how TTP is trading, not digging into the company fundamentals), and therefore you should not rely only on this to guide you on whether you should buy or sell TTP – take it with a grain of salt only, and pay attention to the disclaimer below. With that said, many traders find value in technical analysis and others even swear by it, so if that is you, I hope my analysis will be of use to you. Let's get to it…
First things first: during its last day of trading, TTP opened at 12.93, got to a maximum price of 13.06 and dropped to as low as 12.878 before finishing the session at 13.03. In total there were 61829 shares traded, which is enough to conduct our analysis.

The verdict above will consider all these technical indicators and consider which are strong and weak, and then put them all together to come up with a conclusion stating whether TTP is strong or weak. Again – this is not a reliable indication of whether Tortoise Pipeline & Energy Fund, Inc. is a good investment! None of these indicators consider the company fundamentals. All of this data is based on how it trades only.
What tools do we think are useful for TTP investors? We have identified a handful of great services and software products that we feel comfortable recommending. The first (and main) thing you should take a look at is the Beat The Market Analyzer software, but we also recommend 3 other products. These are Dividend Stocks (an excellent resource to find stocks that may pay far better than TTP), Microcap Millionaires (the best site online for profiting off micro-cap stocks) and Trading Code (an extremely powerful system for profiting off trading). These recommendations are valid for TTP investors as of 2019-12-23.
DISCLAIMER: We are not registered investment advisers and the above analysis should be taken at face value only. We strongly advise against buying or selling Tortoise Pipeline & Energy Fund, Inc. (NYSE:TTP) based solely on our analysis above, and are not responsible for any losses that you may incur if you choose make any investment decisions based on the above.

In this video Tara Stiles gives an introduction to basic meditation. Meditation can be done while doing the physical yoga poses, or really any time when you have a few moments. Even while you are in line at the grocery store you can practice simple meditation by bringing your attention to your breath. Observe your thoughts and focus on breathing in and out. The intent is to bring yourself back to yourself. Tara leads a guided meditation which begins by encouraging the listener to find a comfortable spot and begin quieting the mind. Think about how your body feels and focus on the breath. Notice when thoughts enter the mind and guide your attention back to the breath without judging the thought.

What our clients say
James and Kevin, have done an amazing job of converting our lean-to polycarbonate conservatory roof. We now have a flat solid fiberglass roof on the exterior and a beautiful flat level plastered ceiling on the interior. The roof cavity has been filled with the latest insulation materials. Turning our old conservatory into a modern warm contemporary living space. They
I can not recommend Kev and Jay enough. They are perfect team. They completed the roof in the time they said they would. Never left the job without telling me. Never left it open to the elements and best of all they left the site clean and tidy. The roof they completed for me is no other words but
5 stars to Kevin & Jay for a magnificent new kitchen including French Windows. From start to finish the boys project managed all the works from electricians to plumbers. We now have a fabulous new Kitchen to be proud of. We have already pencilled in our next project and would have no hesitation in recommendin these guys. Thank you.
Kevin and Jay have just finished doing our conservatory roof. Will post pics when the plaster is dry and painted. I am a big believer in "word of mouth" and this is how we got in touch with these guys. Nothing was too much hassle, very professional and extremely tidy. They use good quality materials, keep you updated constantly
After having Kev & Jay do our garage conversion last year, we had no hesitation in asking them to do our recent extension. It's absolutely amazing and we couldn't be more happy with it. Kev & Jay are so friendly and helpful, they really go above and beyond to make sure you get exactly what you want. They also
Kev and James were friendly and professional. Our conservatory was usually so hot even in the recent hot weather we could sit in it and relax. Definitely would recommend.
Kevin and James have just finished a job for us, fitting an en-suite bathroom and renovating the hall and stairs. Right from first meeting them we were very impressed. They listened to what we wanted, made very good suggestions and gave us a very competitive quote in writing, listing all the stages of the work. During the job itself,
Like many others with a glass roofed conservatory, it wasn't a room we could enjoy all year round until we had the light weight roof fitted by Four Seasons. From the first enquiry to the finished job, they were professional, helpful and a fantastic workers. all our questions were answered and they made sure we were happy with the
Rang for a quote which was a prompt service and helpful information.
More than fair price and top quality finish. My conservatory wasn't fit for purpose, way too hot in summer and was near impossible to keep warm in winter. Adding this roof has meant that the conservatory has become an extension to the house, and we probably use that room more than any other now! Top job from Kevin and

Waqar is our first blogger for this CIA exam site. He writes for us every Wednesday.
I am glad to say that Wiley CIA focus notes are really something that I didn't thought it would be — I mean I like them. Today I'm here with Wiley focus notes review, and why I find them helpful.
1. Affordable
First thing which is the best about them is that they are really cheap. You can get the electronic copy for just $40 on the Wiley CIA official site. You can also get them on the Amazon 🙂 Do try them it won't harm you in monetary terms.
2. Detailed and To The Point
I did not know that the notes would be detailed and at the same time they are to the point and focused… that's why they name them focus notes 🙂
3. Good Explanation
Let's get to the part where these notes are explained and I would say they are well explained. I did not buy the Wiley CIA text book and can't compare the two, but I would say that these notes are great and really help enhance your knowledge on the subject matter.
4. Well Organized
They are really well optimized, and they help you go through the notes easily with everything so organized for you. Wiley has done a great job with the CIA focus notes if you ask me.
I would say buy these focus notes and give them a chance. For me, I love them and I think that I have put great use of my money because of the pros I described above. I am really happy that Wiley has improved so much. I used Wiley intensive review for the CMA exam. I did not like their slides (or should I call them notes) that came with the intensive review… but these CIA notes, I have only one word to describe them — awesome — and I mean it.
Lastly again I want to recommend these notes as these will help you prepare better for the exam and pass on your first try. I hope you find this review useful. A marvelous quote for my readers :
In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can."
Waqar Akmal
Note from Stephanie
Thanks for the evaluation of Wiley focus notes. I haven't got a copy myself so it is very helpful to hear your first hand experience.
Referring to your comparison of Wiley's Online Intensive Review for CMA, I have to say that Wiley didn't create them; it was originally developed by the IMA and Wiley started to help them update and distribute since 2013. This explains why the format and perhaps the quality is quite different.
The retail price of each focus notes is $40 from Wiley's official site ($120 for all parts). Amazon price is listed below:
|Part 1
|Part 2
|Part 3
|All Parts
Howdy guys, I am Waqar Akmal from Pakistan. I am currently enrolled in MBA program (Third Semester) and have completed the CMA exam. I am now working towards the CIA exam.
Thanks steph for the information.
Thank you for your comment about CIA focus notes from Wiley. I used its CPA focus notes before and also looks good to me. Hence I am struggling if I should go wiley CIA focus also. May I know which CIA study package you use? Do you just self study with Wiley CIAexcel? or something else?
Thank you,
Thanks Steph for answering for me and Ricky its as Steph says !
waqar where are you from? Can i get notes for WILEY CIA PART ONE NOTES IN KARACHI
Sorry you need to buy it from Wiley's official site !

About a month ago, I watched as men worked for three days to drop a tree in my neighbor's back yard. For some time the top had been dying, and the massive maple posed a threat of crashing onto the house. What drew my attention to the event was the fact that the endangered house was where I grew up and that tree
That tree played a prominent role in my life during the first day of summer break from elementary school after the sixth grade. Daddy met Jim and me on the last half day and told us to change clothes and weed the strawberries. The patch was located behind the maple, and we spent what seemed to be decades hunched over yanking stubborn weeds from the rows. Like most kids, we weren't too tough when it came to work, so every few minutes we took a break and searched for shade. That maple was no bigger than six feet and offered only imaginary shelter.
Mother placed a table under the tree during garden season. On it we husked earns of corn and set containers of broken beans. One year Mamaw Rector sat with us boys for a few days, and we spent afternoons breaking beans as she told us stories about our dad as a boy and young man. She called my older brother aside and gave him some change to buy his cigarettes. She was more aware of what we did than we knew.
I'd never completed a pull-up during high school. A few years later, I decided to change that. One branch on the maple was low enough to reach, and my hands wrapped around it perfectly. Before long I chinned myself for the first time, and by the end of the year, I could do 20 reps with hands in either position. When the tree was hewn, that limb was more the size of most tree trunks.
When we boys grew into adulthood, mother planned a family reunion. Aunts and uncles and cousins once, twice, thrice removed came from as far as North Carolina and New York and as near as a mile away. The maple offered shade from the summer sun as we set up tables and chairs and ate meals and caught up on events and recalled the best of times.
Grandchildren spent hours with Mother at the tree. They'd sit in the swing with her and talk and laugh and love. Wading pools were positioned, and little persons splashed under her watchful eye, all the time being protected from sunburn by the sprawling canopy.
When Mother ended her battle with cancer, we boys and our families gathered at the house. We cried for our losses but then found ourselves sitting under the tree as stories of what used to be flowed. Late into the night, we shared those memories with only the light of cigarette tips and the sounds of beer cans clinking interrupting the dark and stillness.
Like all things in this life, that maple tree aged and grew brittle and a bit feeble. Eventually, some kind of disease attacked and slowly destroyed it from the inside, its own kind of cancer. Eventually, it was too weak and too sick to recover, and its life came to an end.
Watching such an important part of my life cut down in pieces hurt. Oh, the real pain might have come with the realization that I too have spanned several years and am on the backside of life. That's not being maudlin; it's being honest. At some point, I'll come to an end as well, but my prayers are that I won't leave for several more years and after making a mark on those whom I love.
That maple tree started off as a young, strong sapling, and over the years it matured and served as the centerpiece of many of our activities. In so many ways, that maple became our family tree.

The sketch, which was released on Tuesday, is based on eyewitness accounts.
The suspect is described as being in his early 20s, Hispanic, about 5' 5", weighing about 140 pounds, and has short black hair.
"The crime that we have right now is a burglary, a residential burglary. He'll reach in through a window, or take of the screen of a window, and reach into someone's apartment building and remove their underwear from their drawers in some cases," said Bill Russell, Ontario Police Department. "He hasn't made any attempts to harm anybody or to actually physically touch anybody at this point. We're hoping it does not escalate to that some day."
Ontario police have been patrolling the area and informing the residents of the situation.
Some residents say they now hide their underwear because of the thefts.
"Basically, I don't think about it that much because I'm pretty busy. But, other than that, we are taking more precautions to be safe and keep the house locked up," said resident Missy Bushell.
If you have any information on the suspect, you should call the Ontario Police Department at (909) 986-6711.

In the U.S., there's not much in the way of built-out public transportation infrastructure, which means you need a car to get around. When you're a teen, a vehicle is a pass to freedom, but more importantly, when you're an adult it can be your pass to so much more. The vehicle you drive could be the difference between keeping your job and losing it, finding a career and being able to show up on time every day to pursue your dreams and so much more. A vehicle is more than transportation, it's how you intend to get where you're going in life. At Lane One Motors, we believe that nothing should stop you from accessing the vehicle you need for your family and the pursuit of your dreams in the U.S. That's why we've gone through pains to offer several different financing opportunities are available at our discount vehicle dealership so that everyone in the St. Louis area can afford their basic needs.
How To Pay For Your Vehicle
Unlike new vehicles, used cars have a few more options in how you can pay for them. If you have the cash set aside to buy the used car you need, you won't need financing options. However, it's understandable if you don't have that much cash set aside and there are ways to get around this hurdle. As Edmunds data from 2016 suggests, the average used car is around $19,000, and while Lane One Motors is much more affordable than that, it's still unusual to have so much cash lying around in liquid format. To avoid paying all of the car's value up front you could look into an affordable financing option through Lane One Motors.
Unparalleled Convenience
When you're looking to finance a used vehicle you have two options: Turn to a bank, or turn to Lane One Motors. Dealer financing has a variety of advantages, one of them being we've developed a rapport with you. For every customer that walks through our door we make it our mission to get you the vehicle you need so that you can pursue your goals without worrying about your transportation options. We're more dedicated to finding better financing options for you than the average bank teller ever will be. As a local business, we differ from the bank in many ways, but that teller will get paid whether or not you're happy with your financing option or not, that's not the case for Lane One Motors.
Additionally, the very same day that you find the car you want and need is the day you can drive it off our lot if you want to. If you opt for a bank or credit union, it will take them several days to process your application for an auto loan and that much longer to put you on the road.
Lane One Motors also takes pride in our forgiving financing options. Our mission is to make transportation universally accessible to the people of St. Louis. With that in mind, we have to be more approving and understanding of whatever credit score you bring to the table. On average, folks with subprime credit scores often pay an interest rate of around 15.7% on their auto loans, based on the data from Experian from 2016. Bearing that in mind, we work with you as much as possible to keep that percentage at a comfortable rate. We're capable of exploring multiple types of options with you on a variety of different vehicles that you like so that we can provide both transportation and a financially viable option to acquire that vehicle.
Pick a Loan Term
We're a business run by an immigrant that believes in the will power of the individual. Which is why we're so open about what's best for your financial health rather than what's best for our bottom line. We're always ready to chat with you about setting loan terms and what is a realistic outlook for how long it will take you to pay off the vehicle and what you can afford. There's a few simple guidelines to follow to sketch out t your loan terms and navigating what you can afford to put forward first.
The Down Payment
If you're getting something financed, we recommend using it as an opportunity to think ahead. The better down payment you can put down now, the more affordable your auto loan will be down the road. It'll be a lower interest rate and a lower monthly bill at the very least, but it can also be a future stress reliever, which in the long-term, is the exact purpose of your new vehicle anyway. Often, when there's a larger down payment, the state of your credit is thought of as a second factor. Lane One Motors can offer a more competitive rate on your financing options if you start off on a better foot. We recommend starting with at least 10% down, but putting down more, or even less, isn't a problem. More is better so that you're not paying more for the vehicle over time, but do what you can afford first.
In regard to loan terms, start by taking a proper pulse of your own financial capabilities. If you feel that you can comfortably afford a shorter loan term, sign up for it. But if you need a longer period of time to pay off such a large sum of money, don't stress about it. A vehicle isn't something with much resale value and unless you're investing in a classic car model like a 55' Mustang, then a used vehicle isn't going to regain much of its value as time goes on. You're paying for the ability to relocate yourself in a shorter amount of time so you can get to work, get your children to school, your spouse to their place of work. It's a portal to where you all need to be at any time. It's not an investment, so when you're considering your loan, just be honest about what you can manage and don't stretch yourself too thin.

The Art of Mindfulness: Relaxed and Focused Colouring is published and was very kindly sent to me for review by Michael O'Mara Books. This book contains a large number of natural images and many of these include patterns within them in a zentangle-style to create lots of small spaces that can be coloured over or within to create different effects. There are also a large number of patterned pages that contain abstract images, repeating designs, crazy shapes and more. If you liked Color Me Calm and Color Me Happy then you're sure to love this book because it contains illustrations from Angela Porter who illustrated both of them and her style is very unique and striking with its flowing scenes that you can't quite tell whether they're scenery or just abstract shapes. The natural images include dolphins, birds, flowers, mountains, stars, peacocks and so much more. This book is a great all-rounder and perfect for beginners who want to try a bit of everything or anyone who enjoys colouring a huge variety of designs. The line thickness ranges from thin to medium/thick and mostly resides within the medium range so this is a good book for those of you who struggle a little with fine motor control or who don't have perfect vision and still want to be able to colour some fairly intricate and detailed images. This is a lovely book which is perfect for practising mindfulness because the details force you to concentrate and this can be used as a great distraction technique when you're feeling anxious or low and really need to get out of your own head.
To read my reviews of other titles in this series and for more general information about the books themselves including size, binding style and line thickness click here.
The image below was coloured using Staedtler Triplus Fineliners and Stabilo Point 88 Fineliners, both of which caused a little bleeding through to the reverse image.

For the one appointment no one can cancel, it pays to be prepared.
Recently a college friend of mine was diagnosed with an incurable cancer; his doctors told him he would live for only another year. The family panicked and consulted a wide range of doctors as well as healers from various alternative fields of medicine. They approached astrologers, prayed to demigods in temples, and even consulted a mystic tantric. Many people keep telling them that a cure may be available that they haven't yet tried.
I was sad to learn about my friend's disease. I wanted to help him during his crisis and suggested the Krishna consciousness process of chanting and hearing Krishna's holy names. But I failed to convince him that, while trying various treatments, he also needed to face reality and prepare for his next life. I was unhappy to see that even his eighty-year- old father was uninterested in the spiritual dimension to life and determined only to save his son.
I remembered the observation of a devotee friend: "One may be admitted to the best hospital, treated by the best doctors, administered the best medicines, but if he is destined to die, he can't avoid an appointment with Mr. Death."
The philosophical writings of Vedic India compare the inevitability of death to the inescapable visit of someone who will get us one day. When Mr. Death strikes, a rich man can't bribe him to go away, a beautiful lady can't charm him to excuse her, a strong man can't wrestle him to submit, a wise person can't defeat him in a debate. Mr. Death gets us all, with no exceptions.
In the Mahabharata, King Yudhishthira is asked what is the greatest wonder in the world. The wise king replies, "Every day thousands are sent to the abode of death. Yet those who are living lead their lives as if death will never happen to them." These words of wisdom helped me come to terms with the stubborn reluctance of my friend's family to understand Krishna consciousness, and with their refusal to accept the inevitability of death.
First Lessons in Spiritual Life
One of the first lessons I learned in spiritual life is the inevitability of death. Friends in college ridiculed me for subscribing to what seemed to them the fatalistic philosophy presented in ISKCON teachings. Their taunting made we wonder whether the Hare Krishnas were only pessimistic, but I soon realized that the acceptance of the unavoidable reality of death equips us with an internal fortitude and calmness. The Hare Krishnas were learning to see the world and its fleeting promises in a detached manner.
A devotee of Krishna faces tragedies, including death, with grace and dignity. Still, devotees don't ignore their bodily conditions or make no attempt to avoid death. A spiritualist cares for the body with a desire to serve God and others. Since the goal is service and not bodily maintenance, the devotee is detached even while caring for the body, and is prepared to face inescapable death.
Teachings of the Vedas
The Vedic tradition explains that our existence doesn't end with death. We are not our temporary body, but the eternal soul residing within. When the body dies, the soul continues to live, although in a different state of existence. By cultivating Krishna consciousness, we nourish the soul and our consciousness transcends petty material pursuits; we learn to live on the spiritual plane of reality and to connect to God, Krishna, through spiritual practices. Hearing and chanting God's holy names helps us attain spiritual happiness, which helps us transcend material happiness and distress. Hearing and chanting also guarantees us a divine journey after death.
The Vedic literature gives many examples of persons whose lives teach us how to prepare ourselves to face the moment of death. The Srimad-Bhagavatam begins with the enquiry of King Parikshit on the duty of a person about to die. Cursed to die in seven days, the king happily accepted his fate; he could now immerse his consciousness in remembrance of the Supreme Lord without any distractions. King Khatvanga, another exemplary person, on learning that he had only a moment to live relinquished all his riches and welcomed death.
Srila Prabhupada's Appeal
Srila Prabhupada taught that life is a preparation for an exam: death. The time of death tests all our cherished values and principles, as well as our attachment to our body and to people and things connected to our body. A devotee of Krishna leads a life centered on service to God and carries out his worldly responsibilities maturely, knowing that the unpleasant vicissitudes of this world can bring the end at any time. Even if the devotee lives a long life, eventually time in the form of disease, old age, or death will threaten to take away all of the devotee's possessions and positions. But because devotees have invested their consciousness in remembering and loving God, they are prepared to meet Mr. Death cheerfully.
Srila Prabhupada often quoted a verse from the Srimad-Bhagavatam (10.14.58) that says that in this material world there is danger at every step. Death can come at any moment. He urged his readers and audiences to spend every moment remembering God so that at the eventual moment of death they would be fixed in an inner state of bliss, ready to enter the divine realm of God.
Srila Prabhupada was himself such an example. In October 1977, when he realized that his body would give away soon, he retired to Vrindavan, the holy place of Lord Krishna's appearance and activities, to engage in exclusive remembrance of God. When he was asked if he had any unfulfilled desires, he calmly said, "I have nothing to desire or hanker for." Srila Prabhupada led a dedicated life of loving service to Krishna, and when Krishna came to take him back, he was ready.
Facing Death Cheerfully
At a festival of hearing and chanting the holy names last year, I had a sobering educational experience. During the daylong kirtanas and discourses at ISKCON Mumbai, I was seated next to thirty-yearold Rohini Tanaya Dasa, who had been diagnosed with a malignant bone cancer. Like my college acquaintance, he had only months to live. But his response to the crisis inspired all the members of our community. He was absorbed in devotional activities; his face was beaming with happiness springing from a deep internal connection with Krishna.
While sitting next to him during the program, I caught my mind feeling sorry for him. But I soon realized he was in the best state of consciousness, and I wished I had the same faith in the holy names and the process of devotional service. Later we spoke together about chanting the holy names and various aspects of the Krishna consciousness process.
"I welcome this disease," he said, "and consider it Krishna's calling. Now my definition of what's important or irrelevant has changed; I seek to make Krishna my exclusive goal."
I was humbled and enlivened in his company, and wished my dying college friend and his relatives could take a cue from him.
Rohini Tanaya reminded me that for a sincere spiritual seeker, death is not the end; rather, it's the beginning of entering into the realm of eternity, knowledge, and bliss. For materialists, death is the end of every thing they identify with; therefore they are in great distress at that moment. On the other hand, a lover of God doesn't mind getting old or nearing death, because he knows that as the body is coming closer to death, the soul is coming closer to its eternal spiritual youthful form. Death for a devoteemeans joining Krishna in the spiritual world for an eternal life of service and bliss.
The two contrasting experiences, with a college friend and with a devotee, convinced me that the process of devotional service makes a person mature beyond his age. A thirty-year-old with a spiritual connection to God can have sagacity and maturity far beyond the myopic vision of an eighty-year-old bereft of spiritual knowledge.
Rohini Tanaya Dasa passed from this world in the loving association of Krishna's devotees chanting the holy names. He had been living as a resident brahmacari at the ISKCON temple in Nigdi, outside Pune.
During his last moments, Rohini Tanaya desired to be with the deities and devotees, so he was rushed to the temple, a four-hour drive from the hospital. On his arrival, all the resident devotees and more than five hundred congregation members performed an intense kirtana for more than an hour. As the evening arati started and the deities were greeted amidst loud chanting and the blowing of conch shells, indicating auspiciousness, Rohini Tanaya cast his last loving glance at the devotees and, while prayerfully looking upon the deities, departed from his body.
Devotees cried and rejoiced simultaneously, for this was an extraordinary, inspirational departure. Devotees had witnessed that Krishna consciousness is not simply a theory but a practical science. Rohini Tanaya had just shown by his example how a devotee fixed in Krishna consciousness receives Mr. Death cheerfully.

HK. PAMHO at your Lotusfeet prabhuji…
Thank you for the wonderful post. Just one doubt that's perturbing my mind is,
We always hear/read, that we have to strive to go back to godhead… and at the same time, Mahaprabhu is saying, "Mamma Janmani Janmanishwaray ….."-"I don't mind Being here in this world, if I can Just remember you and serve you Lord"?…
So, on one hand there is this hankering (Or for a Neophyte like me, rather an immature understanding) of going back to Godhead to shun away from worries? As Practically speaking I have no qualifications or absolutely no clue about the spiritual world? As being in this Material world since so many Lifetimes, hearing and reading about Spiritual world appears to be a very Foreign Concept to my limited intelegence!
& on other hand there is this, that to Please Krsna I can be in this world in midst of all the fears, anxieties, miseries & worries, (which is not exactly coming from within the heart/ not genuine)?…
So, How do we reconcile these two thoughts & prepare for the inevitable final exam???
Your Insignificant Servant-Shraddha.
the understanding is we aspire to serve and please krishna and we want to go back to godhead because our service will be uninterrupted and nice. therefore we want to go back to godhead only to please krishna.
now regarding staying in the material world the mood that chaitanya mahaprabhu exhibited is a result of pure love for krishna. it is an effect of bhakti. we cant imitate it. ultimately we want to serve krishna and please krishna and for pure devotees it doesnt matter where they are because they will always please krishna whereas we are small and insignificant and want to go back to godhead, if krishna desires, so that we can serve and please him.

Thank you for your kind reply!
Beg your prayers and blessings.

Worthless Guide to Social Graces - Part 3: More Table Manners
I figured I had better continue my series on social graces around the

of perpendicular) after sucking down a tube steak in France. What are you

ask? Well first of all it is my love of the written word. Nothing gives

am sure of is that all you straight men need a wake-up call, and I'm

Worthless Guide to Playing Guitar
since I was a small child I've dreamt of being a rock star. One of my
fondest childhood memories is dancing in front of our television,
rocking out with a broken broom to a Whitesnake music video my father
was watching. "Boy," he said to me, taking a drag from one of his brown
paper (and likely PCP laced) Sherman cigarettes, "Getthefug outta the
way and stop mincing around like a goddamn fa**ot." Then he threw a
half-empty beer can at my head and I ran off crying. From that moment I
knew I was destined for greatness. Sure enough, soon I was swaying back
under the white hot lights of the stage, noodling at a cheap guitar and
barely able to stand because my blood was almost pure heroin. So now
that you're aware of my own rock credentials, let's see about helping
you get started with your own.
10 Things to do Before You Die
Who the hell comes up with these "Things to do before
you die" lists. Swim with dolphins? Spend New Years Eve in Times
Square? Stay out dancing all night? You have got to be kidding me with
that crap. I figured I could find better, so I took to the streets and
asked six fascinating folks from different walks of life to create
own lists of Ten Things everyone should get done before they kick off. We hope you'll take
some of them into consideration and begin living life to its fullest!

- Take mushrooms and wander wide-eyed through a casino
wasn't that beautiful? Sometimes it just takes someone outside of your
life to really make you say "Huh, I don't care, thanks for wasting my
time." Make sure to also keep an eye out for Part 2 of this series,
coming sometime to somewhere. Nobody cares.
Alright, here is PART 2.

About Us
Welcome to Mexborough Life Church & Centre.
We are a church that exists to demonstrate the good news that God is alive and well today.
Jesus Christ stepped into the real world, got his feet and hands dirty and involved himself in the real lives of his friends and followers.

He went to where they were, answered their questions, and laid before them a vision of life that was so free, so powerful and so transforming that no-one could ignore it.
That in a nutshell is what we are about. We want to bring the real God, to real people, in the real world. There is nothing special about us, we are ordinary people who have encountered an extraordinary God.
Our website will introduce you to our programmes and activities. You can also find our contact details here in case you have any questions.
It's great to know you!
