Important 2013 update to Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich"
Posted on September 17, 2013 25 Comments
"You are already wealthy, but you have been taught not to experience your wealth." –David Cameron Gikandi
In 1937 when Napoleon Hill wrote his now-classic tome, quantum physics was still in diapers. Einstein, of course, had posited his famous theory of relativity, but quantum physicists didn't completely understand how it worked.
To tell you the truth, they still have trouble making sense of the crazy quantum world that is changed by simple observation. As famous physicist Richard Feynman was known to say, "Nobody understands quantum mechanics."
However, we do know with complete certainty that thoughts produce energy (much like invisible radio waves) and that they have a significant impact on your life. This energy, in fact, provides the building blocks for your life experience.
The update to Hill's material should be this: "Think and BE Rich." Time is irrelevant. You can "be rich" now. Money is only a representation of your "wealth consciousness" and "wealth consciousness" which is the true source of your financial picture is available right at this moment.
Money—or what we think of as money—bills, coins, etc.—are merely tools that demonstrate a person's "wealth consciousness." And, in fact, according to David Cameron Gikandi, only 4 percent of money in banks (depending on the country) exist in physical form. Furthermore, he says, "Money is not real. It's a shadow of something else."
So by expanding your consciousness into the true abundance of the world, you acquire what is in you already. As Gikandi says, "You have more wealth capability within you than you can possibly experience in a lifetime. Nor do you need to know how to convert wealth consciousness into paper money. It happens automatically when you expand your wealth consciousness."
In the quantum world, you are connected to everything. You already have all the riches you could ever imagine. They exist right now as probability waves. But that's the problem. You don't imagine them.
You keep focusing on what you don't have.
So back to Napoleon Hill. He advises people to come up with a date when they want a certain amount of money. Sometime in the future. But the trick in the quantum world is to "be rich now." Again, all your riches already exist in the quantum world.
Being wealthy is an internal state. As Gikandi points out, "It has nothing to do with the outside world. The internal state of wealth is a decision you make right now and you become it right Now. You need nothing outside yourself to make this decision. Do not attempt to get wealth. Be wealth.
"Even in a billion lifetimes, you cannot possibly exhaust the wealthy given to you freely by life. But you can "fail" to receive it by your own thoughts, words, action, and most of all, your chosen states of being."
The only thing standing in your way is your "wealth consciousness." Isn't it time to quit "thinking and growing rich?" Instead, it's time to Think and BE Rich.

"I laughed more in the last 7 days than in the last 7 years."–Esther Hicks
I've mentioned this before, but there is NOTHING. LIKE. FRIENDS. Especially when un-learning the old paradigm. I'm in a couple groups here in Lawrence that get together regularly to talk about the principles I wrote about in E-Squared. We laugh so hard. We have so much fun that it makes you wonder. Why doesn't everyone do this?
So if you're not in a group, get in one.
I learn so much from my fellow creators. I get so much support. Including having one of my besties fill in for me here on the blog.
It may not look like it, but I'm actually in Istanbul right now. Or I will be when you read this. So let me introduce you to Annola Charity who has always been an inspiration to me.
This woman knows spiritual principles and she walks her talk. Every time I'm around her, I feel uplifted. She's a fabulous artist, seamstress, author and well, her talents go on and on. She even sang "Everything's Coming Up Roses" on my birthday. She sent out this little reminder to all of us in the group last week and I begged her to let me share. So take it away, Annola.
As I was doing my morning time, meditating and practicing appreciation for my life and my home, I realized I was happy with what is. But I am also open to an upgrade.
I discovered that contrast does not have to be negative in order to be seen as contrast. The contrast is that I have good stuff now but I am ready for more. I love coffee ice cream just as it is right out of the carton. I also want to experience it with hot caramel sauce. The contrast is the coffee ice cream with the new and improved dish of the added topping. Both are good, but one is better.
I like where I am living, but truly love the house in my vortex that has more room and has some of the same features that I am living now. I like being in the country, the quiet, good-natured neighbors and so on. This 'ah ha' moment was also a great reminder that just because I like where I am, I am not 'stuck' with it. I can except a new and updated version of my life experience and I don't need pain to get a better gain.
Contrast only shows the difference between the two things I like. As I come into alignment with the awesome stuff in my vortex, the less negative contrast I have to have. I embrace the idea of loving and appreciating what I have now and joyously anticipating the newer, more funner (yes I said funner), experiences and things into my life.

"We manufacture beauty with our minds."–Augusten Burroughs
According to Tony Robbins, there are more than 3000 words in the English language relating to human emotions. Not a surprise–we're an abundant bunch.
However, 2086 of those words are negative. And if you want to hear a lot of them, bring up the topic of dieting and weight loss.
Luckily, I don't have to, because Cloris Kylie Stock, one of my favorite blogger friends, brought it up for me. Here's a blog post she sent me a few weeks ago. Take it away, Cloris:
It's All Good Food
Burgers are "bad" and broccoli is "good."
We think we're being "good" even if the broccoli in question is drowning in a sea of processed cheese and hydrogenated oil.
The "good" and "bad" labels we've applied to food have become part of our subconscious programming, and we act on this programming without being aware of it. The messages stored in our subconscious mind affect our thoughts and mold our behaviors, so if we feel guilty because we were on a diet and still had a cookie, we're likely to say, "Oh, what the heck. I blew it. I might as well have the rest of the cookies." We're also likely to feel terrible about ourselves after eating those cookies because we were "bad."
I thought about this while visiting a local picnicking spot. The people sitting at the first two picnic tables couldn't have been more different.
One of the tables was covered with all the "sinful" food: bags of chips and pork rinds, fried chicken, 2-liter bottles of orange soda, and assorted cookies and cupcakes. A family of seven gathered around the table. Most people in the family were largely overweight, even the children.
Sitting at the other table was a single woman of average height. The only item on the table was a cellphone, and the only item in her mouth was a cigarette. I estimated she weighed less than 90 pounds.
That's what happens when we assign labels, I thought to myself.
Obesity and eating disorders have become such a problem in our country because of the unhealthy relationship we've created with food, and this relationship stems from the messages we have stored in our subconscious mind. When food becomes "bad" or "sinful," or when we call something that tastes good "guilty pleasure," we associate negative emotions with what is supposed to nourish our bodies. This negative energy translates into unhealthy behavior, excess weight, and disease.
But we're not doomed.
As Pam Grout writes in her brilliant book, E-Squared, "Food is full of energetic juju, and eating should be a thoroughly positive experience." After applying the wisdom of "The Jenny Craig Principle" in E-Squared, I've not only lost the pesky two pounds I gained during my torrid love affair with Ben & Jerry's, but also learned to truly enjoy everything I eat.
We can decide to change the programming in our subconscious mind by being aware of our negative thoughts about food, and by replacing those thoughts with gratitude and appreciation. Instead of being afraid of gaining a pound, we can visualize each nutrient making our body radiant and strong. Instead of feeling guilty about the food we consume, we can give thanks for being able to afford a good meal.
And once we change our thoughts about food, we'll subconsciously make healthful food choices.
It sounds simple because it is.
Buon Appetito!

"Is there an edge? Does it go into infinity in time and space? There's nothing like swimming in the ocean for 50 hours that gets you to thinking about things like this."—Diana Nyad
Even though I'm a journalist and it would probably be wise to keep this to myself, I don't put a lot of stock in the news.
To my way of thinking, the news is short-sighted, mostly negative and doesn't begin to show an accurate picture of the way the world really is. In fact, most of what I see on the all-important news seems pretty irrelevant to my life.
However, there was a news item this week that is as close to what I consider Truth as it comes.
I know you've heard about it. Diana Nyad, at age 64, after four other failed attempts, swam 110 miles in 52 hours and 54 minutes, the first swimmer to go the distance from Cuba to Florida without a shark cage.
So in honor of this amazing woman who went for her big dream, I decided to post her very inspiring Ted Talk.
This is for anyone out there who thinks they're too old or it's too late or they've already tried way too many times.
This, my friends, is the news!!

"Go in your pocket, pull out your wallet, put it in the air and sing."–Travie McCoy and Bruno Mars
You've heard the phrase: "be careful what you wish for." This is a story about that very adage.
Five months ago, I was in Denver on a travel assignment. And because travel assignments always entail getting to do "really cool things," you won't be surprised to hear that I was given the rare opportunity to not only visit Red Rocks, the magical outdoor venue that, to performers, is considered the holy grail of places you want to play, but I got to go backstage and hang out in the 300 million-year-old sandstone cave-like rooms where musicians hang before their sets.
I sat on the very couch Macklemore (who I love with all my heart and soul) had sat on just one month earlier when playing for Icelantic's Winter on the Rocks. I got to linger in the hidden tunnel beneath the stage where hundreds of famous musicians have signed their names. As I said in one of the articles I wrote about this trip, it felt like getting to mecca.
Every inch of the walls, steps and electrical wiring in this tunnel leading to the sound engineering room is covered with autographs: everyone from John Mayer, Sting and Santana to perennial favorite The Grateful Dead.
So what did I do? I took a deep breath, grabbed for my pen and signed my name along with the many recording artists that I've sung to, danced to and loved since I first turned on a radio.
So fast forward to today, less than 150 days later. I am heading to a real live recording studio to record (don't worry I won't be singing) the audio book of E-Squared.
It wasn't just my "what I wish for." Dozens of readers have emailed me with some version of this message: "Where do I find an audio book of E-squared? I want to listen while I drive to work, to New York, to my Aunt Bertha's house for Thanksgiving……"
So together, I believe we called this forth. Me in a recording studio and a soon-to-be-available audio version of E-Squared.
So here's to Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show, Phish, Poison, Buck Owens, Bruno Mars and Travie McCoy (who, instead of wanting to be on the cover of Rolling Stone, decided to "be on the cover of Forbes with Oprah and the Queen)!
As Bruno Mars told Forbes when they featured him in their annual billionaires' issue (He wrote the song, I want to be a billionaire so frickin' bad), "The inspiration behind that song was, I was tired of spending half my day worrying about what I can and can't spend on whatever.
"I wouldn't have to worry about, you know, 'I can't afford to get breakfast, so I'll wait until lunchtime to eat.' If I was a billionaire, none of that would matter. I'd be eating diamond cereal."
So, he wrote the song and a few months later, he was playing the track "Nothing on You," which went on to get multiple Grammy nominations. Can't say if he's a billionaire, but as I said, "be careful what you wish for."
I don't wish to be a billionaire or be on the cover of Rolling Stone (not that I'd turn either down), but what I wish for "so freakin' bad" is that peace will enter each of our hearts and spread like a Colorado wildfire across the planet.
Wish me luck in the recording studio.

Why I'm the luckiest person on the planet, Part 3
Posted on September 2, 2013 13 Comments
"Spiritual practice is just training our minds towards reverence, like moving a potted plant to a sunny spot by the window."—Lana Maree on Facebook
Okay, so I guess this topic (being the luckiest person on the planet) is now an official series. And one of the gazillion reasons it's true is because I have the most awesome friends in the entire known universe.
I hear from hundreds of readers, who are all awesome, and I have a couple groups here in my hometown who get together with the sole purpose of HAVING FUN. And therefore attracting MORE FUN. It's a constant reminder of why we are here on planet earth. I walk out of those groups….no, I should say I dance out of those groups buzzing with joy and love and creative ideas.
Yesterday, one of our newest members told this story. A couple years ago she made a New Year's resolution to "never say no to fun." That meant if anyone asked her to go to a concert or go out dancing or out to lunch, she was committed to say "You betcha!"
She had begun to notice that she was turning down invitations because well, she's a mom and she had a busy day or she was tired or…..you get the idea. There are a million rational reasons adults can give for declining an offer to enjoy themselves.
Kids, she noted, never turned down fun. They were in constant search of the next good time. Teenagers, too, would never spurn a party…no matter how late or how much they were going to piss off their parents by sneaking out the bedroom window.
It begs the question….when was the tipping point? At what point did we begin rejecting the chance for joy and glee?
What she discovered during her year of "just saying yes" is that the energy she thought she was going to conserve by staying home actually grew. The tired feeling that had previously impelled her to give the other answer completely disappeared.
And now, she says, "I don't even have to think about it. I always say yes to fun."
In the comments section below, tell me what you're going to do this week for fun?

"Man only likes to count his troubles, but he does not count his joys."—Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Before entering the hospital room of a tuberculosis patient, visitors are required to cover their entire bodies. They even don surgical gloves and face masks.
None of us balk at this seemingly overcautious behavior. We don't want to catch tuberculosis. It's contagious, for goodness sake. Of course, we'd go to great lengths to avoid being exposed.
Yet, we never protect ourselves from the bad news we see on television, the horrible reports we read in the newspaper. What we see on the nightly news is nothing like what we see in our own neighborhoods. The new media presents a grossly-distorted picture, an anomaly.
And, unfortunately, that picture of "America, the Ugly" is every bit as contagious and as damaging as those tuberculosis germs.
Poet and novelist Maya Angelou goes so far as to call negativity poison. She is vigilant in protecting herself from negative conversation. If she hears what she calls "a poisonous comment," she quickly says "sayonara" and doesn't feel a bit guilty about it. If anyone starts in at her home, she asks them to leave.
"If you allow it (negativity) to perch in your house, in your mind, in your life, it can take you over. So when rude or cruel things are said, I say, 'Take it all out of my house.' Those negative words climb into the wood and into the furniture and the next thing they'll be on my skin," she says.
She prefers what Paul said in his letter to the Corinthians. They wrote complaining about old men who were chasing young women, about church members who refused to tithe. And he wrote back, "If there be anything of good report, speak of these things."
Your thoughts are magic. Not one of them goes unheeded by the universe. Whatever it is you think and feel the great universal energy stands up and says, "I second it."
Why cast your spotlight in dirty corners? Why focus on negativity?
Our thought about ourselves, about our world, about our relationships create our reality. In a landmark physics experiment, researchers who theorized that light waves were curvy found curvy light waves. And those who deduced light waves were straight as Billy Graham? They found Billy Graham-straight light waves.
Who needs a mind reader or a psychologist to dredge up an unburied unconscious? If you want to know what there's just take a look around. It's all right there in living color. If you see dysfunctional relationships, finances that are always a struggle, a word of snotty sales clerks, then that's what you're spending your time thinking about. In fact, the thoughts come first.
Change your thoughts and your focus and you can literally change your world.

"Revolution might sound dramatic, but in this world, choosing authenticity and worthiness is an absolute act of resistance."—Brene Brown
Just finished Brene Brown's book, The Gifts of Imperfection. It's a short, inspiring book, a perfect read for the day I took my daughter back to college. She (my daughter, not Brene) has been home most of the summer and, even though this is the second year I've taken her to college, dropping her off for a whole year (it was much easier dropping her off for four hours of kindergarten) still pulls on my heartstrings.
So in honor of moms and daughters and Brene Brown, I'd like to share this story from Brene's fabulous book.
She and Ellen, her daughter, decided to run to the mall for a quick run-in and run-out. Brene hadn't washed her hair, was wearing sweats and hoping like hell not to run into anyone she knew.
Eight-year-old Ellen, inspired by an exuberantly joyful song, began doing the robot (it's a dance they often do at home) in the shoe department. Right in front of, as Brene describes it, "a trio of gorgeous women, tossing their long (clean) hair over their narrow, square shoulders as they perched on their high-heeled, pointed-toe boots, and watched their equally beautiful daughters try on sneakers."
She says her default setting would have been embarrassment and a diminishing look at her daughter. But instead, as she watched those "magnificent moms…and their daughters visibly on the edge of doing or saying something mean-spirited," she decided to join right in.
She says, "We stood in the middle of the shoe department and practiced our moves until the song was over. I'm not sure how the onlookers responded to our shoe department Soul Train, because I didn't take my eyes off Ellen."
Bravo Brene! And bravo for writing such a wonderful book.

"Most people don't understand how important thoughts are and leave the development of thought patterns to chance." –Dr. Daniel Amen
Since I've shared lots of butterfly stories here on the blog and have even had readers asking "How do I turn the butterflies off?" I thought I'd share a humorous twist on the Volkswagen Jetta experiment that came from my new friend, Paula, who stopped by to treat me to a fabulous lunch on her way to see her grandbaby in Kansas City.
Anyway, she made the intention to find the word cacophony.
"I'd never heard that word before," she said. "You used it in E-Squared and I had to look it up, didn't know what it meant. So I thought it would be fun to make the intention to see or hear that word again."
Sooooo……wasn't to be found in the newspaper. Didn't show up in any of the books she was reading (like me, "my new BFF" devours books).
Basically, she'd forgotten about it. But she's on her I-Pad, the 48 hours are nearly up, she's looking up some directions, some route or something and guess what word shows up in autocorrect? Yep, the one and only: cacophony!
And one more fun story from last week:
This one is also from Kansas and from a manifesting maestro who's only in kindergarten. Take it away, Mom:
"Last Christmas, our daughter received a gift from my sister's family, in our White Elephant gift exchange. It was a complete kid's kitchen set that their daughters weren't using anymore. I didn't think anything of it, until a few days later, when I went through her backpack from school. In it, there was a piece of paper, with an image of a very similar "kiddy kitchen set" pasted upon it.
When my daughter saw me looking at it, she grabbed the paper, ran into her room and said, "Mommy… LOOK!" She was pointing at the "physical" kitchen set she now had. I had chills. I guess the preschool teacher had the kids cut out an image of something they wanted for Christmas. The thing was, no one in our family knew of her desire. She had not mentioned this item, when asked what she wanted for Christmas… but she had obviously set the intention in her mind, and created her own "vision board."
I can only imagine that this amazing little girl is going to have one heck of an exciting life.
Woo-hoo! Madi!!

It is an elastomeric rubber based insulation material in the form of sheet with closed cell structure. It is manufactured to be used for air conditioning, heating and cooling systems. It can be faced with aluminium foil and can be self-adhesive.
It is used on the exterior surfaces of the ducts and large diameter pipe lines in the heating, cooling and air conditioning systems for thermal insulation and condensation control purposes. For the spaces where there is heat transfer by radiation, using products faced with aluminium foil is recommended. The sheets are adhered to the duct surface by using a special adhesive that Izocam suggests. Joints should be tightly sealed and they should be covered with insulation tape afterwards if necessary. Taping should not result in thickness loss. For the application of self adhesive sheets there is no need to use any adhesive. The application should be protected against distruption and rupture. For the applications exposed to the sun, definitely a protective coat or a protective paint should be used. For indoor spaces getting day lighting, the products faced with aluminium foil can be used without requiring any coating against UV affect. Fort the outdoor applications, the surface should be coated within 5 days.

Forensic Exam
What is it?
The Sexual Assault Forensic Exam, also called a 'rape kit', is an exam that checks for and documents physical evidence of sexual battery, sexual assault, or rape, and may be conducted up to 5 days after the incident. To best preserve evidence, one should not bathe, shower, brush teeth, or go to the bathroom until after the forensic exam. Evidence from a forensic exam can be used in prosecuting sexual assault cases through the criminal justice system.

Pella, Iowa 50219
(You can call Crisis Intervention Services for more information at 1-800-270-1620)
How does it work?
A sexual assault nurse examiner, (SANE) or doctor will begin the exam by asking about your medical history and health, and may ask about the characteristics or details of the assault. A physical exam will be performed and samples from various parts of the body may be collected to test for DNA. A toxicology test may also be done to test for drugs in the system, and clothing may be kept as evidence. At the hospital they may ask for your insurance, however, there is no charge for a rape kit and you do not need to provide insurance.
Will the police be notified?
Yes, the police are notified to come and pick up the exam. You do not have to provide your name on the exam. The police are NOT automatically given your name. No investigation is kick-started just by the police picking up an exam. You are given the option to speak to the officer. If you choose not to, they will come pick up the exam after you have left.
How are forensic exams used?
After the exam, the doctor or nurse will document the findings in a medical record, which can later be subpoenaed to assist in the legal process. The record will be saved with the police department for 14 years.
Can I have someone with me?
You can have a support person (or people) of your choice such as a friend, family member, or advocate accompany you throughout the medical care process. You can also call Crisis Internvetion Services at 641-673-5499 or 1-800-270-1620 to speak with someone confidentially and request an advocate to accompany you to receive medical care.Back to top

Welcome to the first blog post on TorontoRunClub.ca! Thank you for stopping by. I'm just getting started here, but please feel free to check back for updates soon.
So what should you expect?
On this blog I'm going to share the trials and tribulations of my own running journey on the streets of Toronto. I'll do my best to candidly and honestly share the highs and the lows, plus my favourite running routes, training tips and inspirational running content. I promise I'll make it worthwhile.
And perhaps most importantly, I'm hoping to document my involvement with the Toronto running club scene. From my preliminary research, it looks like there are tens of running clubs in our great city. So I'm curious to see what they have to offer.
Traditionally, I've done most of my running alone. But I think these clubs could offer an appealing social aspect as I try to take my endurance exercise to the next level.
And hey…
If you have any tips of your own, or ideas about running in Toronto, feel free to leave me a note in the comments. I'm excited to learn from my fellow Torontonian pavement pounders.
So there you have it. I think that's it in a nutshell. As a reminder, please bookmark this blog. You won't regret it. And by the way, I created a little something for you below. Just for stopping by.

Wise She Mega NYX Giveaway Entry 13 By Swati
What the company claims: A color intense formula that glides on evenly for a dramatic look that lasts all day.
I had been looking for a dark blue eye pencil that would be visible against my dark eyelids. I wanted to buy the Faces one badly, but since we do not have Faces where I live, I decided to go for an alternative. The second I laid eyes on the swatch, I knew my search was over. This range comes in other colors like Black, Jade, Purple and Slate.
Price: INR 295 for 0.35 gms
The color is a dark matte blue which pops up against my dark lids and brown eyes. It is very pigmented and one swipe alone gives a beautiful color. The formula is very creamy and smooth, glides on easily and will give a nice even line. It comes in the form of a retractable pencil, which in my opinion is really hassle free and prevents product wastage. It stays on my eye-lids for a good 7-8 hours without a primer and also stays on my waterline for 4-5 hours. I do not expect any eye liner to stay on my watery waterline for long, so its staying power was a pleasant surprise. It will not wash away with water. You need to use a god cleanser to remove this.
Swatches of Lakme Nine to Five Defining Eyeliner in Sapphire
Lakme nine to five eyeliner on my eyes
What I liked about Lakme Nine To Five Defining Eyeliner
- The color is gorgeous. It is totally matte without a single drop of shimmer in it. It would great on brown-eyed beauties. I say this from experience.
- Very pigmented. You don't need multiple swipes.
- Shows up well against dark lids too.
- Smooth texture. Will not tug eyelids. Not so smooth that it will crease or smudge.
- Waterline safe. Does not irritate the eyes.
- Staying power is great. Without a primer, last for about 7-8 hours on eyelids and 4-5 hours on waterline.
- Does not smudge at all. Will start fading slightly after 6-7 hours.
- Water-proof.
What I do not like about Lakme Nine To Five Defining Eyeliner
- Retractable pencil would raise hygiene-related concerns for some. It does not bother me, personally.
- Paying 300 bucks for a lakme eye pencil does not seem justified. Agreed that as a prduct its great, but it's still Lakme!!!
Will I buy it again: Yes. Once I finish this one up, I am definitely buying this very pencil in the same shade again. I might also try the other shades.
Will I recommend this: Hell Yeah! I have already made my friends buy these in various shades!

Little Witch Academia Episode 20: Why did it have to be snakes?
Published on May 26, 2017
Phew, this week's episode was quite fun to watch. I know I take my shots with this episode, but my overall impression of it is surprisingly positive. I think the series has been doing a good job of developing its characters in the second half. I'm happy to have a better understanding of Diana's motivations and background. It's actually making me reconsider how much I really know about the other characters. Anyway, I'm a little sad that we have to get back to that sketchy business with Croix after this.
Yeah, Akko. I'm sure that will convince Diana to listen to you.
Huh...today I learned that "Venusian" is a word.
Oh no! It's an opportunity for Akko to save the day again! Also, Diana was clearly standing on the plant bridge when the snakes attack her, but she's magically on the platform in this picture. Sorry, I couldn't resist pointing that out.
Squirrels are the natural enemies of witches! That aside, I'm not really surprised by this revelation, but Diana is a much more interesting character if she has this kind of backstory. Plus, this gives her a chance to relate with Akko, right?
Did this series just give Akko the convenient conversation where the bad guys reveal their evil plan so she can interfere with it? Sigh...
I know that Akko is impulsive and all, but how does she not notice Diana or the snakes before attempting to cross this plant bridge?
I was going to ask that too.
I have to admit that using a water drop in this shrine to represent the tears that Diana wouldn't shed while talking about her deceased mother is a nice touch.
Aww...they're friends now.
I'm torn on this. I liked that this scenario gave Diana another chance to show her compassion at the expense of the ritual, but it makes no sense that these three are here in the first place. How could they have known that Diana was coming here to do the ritual? They were clearly content to put their feet up and wait for the eclipse to pass before Akko overheard them.
Wait, is Diana's goal at Luna Nova related to the card? Is she searching for Shiny Chariot too? It would certainly make sense.
This is the correct reaction.
Abigail RogersonFeb. 7, 2018, 8:54 p.m.
I definatly agree with what you're saying, especially the "Aww, they're friends now!". I dunno why, but Diana looks too serious to be such a cinnamon roll!

Loyalty Points
Loyalty Points
This valuable exposition of the theme ois in four sections. The first is concerned with the nature of Satan and his activity in the world God has made. The second examines the different dimensions of Christ's victory over Satan. The third considers ways in which Christ's victory over Satan impacts God's people. The final section looks at various areas in which believers must fight sin and Satan. Two concluding chapters examine the weapons with which God equips his people for their spiritual warfare.
There are not heaps of helpful books written on this subject but I found this one an exception. Insightful, biblical, honest and applied. I would thoroughly recommend.

I often wonder in my heart even though I might not be mathematically correct what the actual value of one voters card could be.
My layman's mind tells me that with a population of about 180 million, or just put at 200 million Nigerians and a voting population of less than 100 Million, we have a commanding electoral change force.
The excuse that Nigerians will continue to be short changed by an inconsequential few politicians hold no serious contention. What is worrisome is the inability of most Nigerians to appropriate the worth and potency of a legitimate voter's card.
A voter's card is supposed to provides for our good roads. healthcare services, security, shelter, employment and effective communication infrastructures but our experience in Nigeria reveals otherwise.
The gripping effect of poverty has reduced the human worth of an average Nigerian to a beggar while those who have the mandate of the people to represent them are aggressively looting our common wealth
A political position or appointment is considered far more lucrative and financially rewarding than growing an investment. A good percentage of the Nigerian political class have no known source of steady income prior to their venturing into politics. Most of them cannot boast of ever employing 10 Nigerians but their bank account reveal billions of funds without factories or industries to their credit.
The insanity of this group of political jobbers is the assumption that their acquisitions can sustain them and their families for a lifetime. Unfortunately they suffer from the failure of Electricity, move around in the custody of uncountable armed police and military guards. It is disgusting to see even security personnels and principal officers move in cocktail of long sophisticated armed vehicles while most Nigerians are living without common police posts and community police patrols. Do these Nigerians not have time to think and ask themselves questions? Why do an average Nigerian fail when it matters most to engage the moral decadence by voting character with integrity and credible characters during election? Why do we vote for parties instead of persons?
Our security personnel are poorly equipped and crime has risen to such a level that criminals are more sophisticated and better trained than those paid with tax payers funds for the enforcement of law and order. A voter's card can become a constant reminder to those who have taken electoral mandate as an end in itself and fail to be stewards and prudent managers of the peoples common wealth and trust.
Once upon a past political leaders were custodians of truth and prudent stewards of public resources,
They were the icons of patriotism and epitome of integrity but not any more, Not in today's Nigeria and by extension Africa and other nations of the world.
Our voters card is our red card.
Let us retire wasteful leaders and truants from public service
Let us bring and end to political jobbing
Let us close the doors against touts and sycophants.
Any politician that cannot quantify his or her contributions to the growth and development of their constituents must be made to account for the resources allocated for their community development. Corruption thrives in Nigeria because social misfits, men and women of dishonest pedigrees are mandated to manage the resources of the people.

Rather than plan in depth, Raynor is an excellent improviser able to achieve victory by using what is on hand.[13] Allied military captains recognized Raynor to be highly resourceful,[52] and even the Axis considered Raynor a grave threat.[13] He is used to leading men personally in battle, and by using his wits and inspiring those under his command, he has made the impossible look easy.

While some celebrities' style is demure, others love to take risks with the outfits they wear down the red carpet—so much so that we've occasionally seen a few NSFW wardrobe malfunctions. Whether it's a completely sheer gown, or barely enough fabric to be considered a dress, Hollywood A-listers have worn just about anything.

Online colleges are becoming more and more popular with students seeking college degrees and enrollment into these programs continues to grow each year. These programs are designed to help students of all lifestyles reach their higher education goals, and while attending an online college might seem strange to some students, there are many key advantages to attending a top online school that students otherwise would not receive from a traditional college.
One of the greatest benefits of online colleges is their flexibility and freedom, according to Blackboard. Students with busy personal lives, including stay-at-home parents and working professionals, turn to online colleges because there are fewer restrictions and more freedom involved. For instance, online programs do not require students to attend physical classroom at given times in order to learn the material. Instead, students are able to read the texts and complete their homework and other assignments at their own pace from home. These kinds of programs are especially beneficial for students that struggle to keep up in traditional classrooms, prefer to learn in a non-traditional manner, or donít like the distraction of sitting surrounded by other students. Also, students have the option to study and work in any location they choose, like a library, home office, or coffee shop with wireless Internet. The possibilities are endless.
Another great advantage of attending an online college is the cost savings. While many online programs can be as costly as attending a traditional school, there are several other less expensive options. Also, students will save money in other areas, like transportation, since they will not be required to travel to a physical campus, room and board, child care, as they will be able to work from home, and in the many fees traditional colleges charge for campus maintenance, facilities usage, and even athletics. Also, students interested in attending an online college have many more academic options and opportunities than students enrolled in a traditional school. Because students can choose from a wider selection of colleges, they will have an even greater selection of majors and degree programs to pick from. This is a great advantage for students interested in a less popular, more specialized field which would otherwise not be offered at a traditional college.
Overall, online colleges provide students of all walks of life greater flexibility and freedom, greater cost savings, and more academic opportunities. Choosing an online program might not be the norm in higher education yet, but with these key advantages, these schools will only continue to grow in popularity, according to PR News Wire.

Growing and Learning 'Math' Together
Grandissons et apprenons le 'Mathématiques' ensemble
This is an evening to learn about math: through games, music, technology and cooking. We can influence our children's success in math through a positive and game based approach to math.
You and your family will be able to visit each of the math stations to play, sample, and test; before you move to the next activity. There will be take home samples and ideas to continue the learning at home.
Activities are geared to all students: kindergarten to grade 8. Math stations will be set up in a number of classroom locations. There is no order that you must follow. Maps will be posted throughout the school. There is no sign up for the classroom locations. Each station will need about 10-15 minutes of your time. A list will be posted in many locations of all games and activities so that you might plan your Math Journey. We will hand out your Math Passport so that you can keep of record of your learning for the evening.
One activity, Finding the Math in Music offered by Mr Smeaton and Miss Kherraji, is a sign up activity. There is a maximum of 22 spots.
Throughout the hallways are a number of Estimation stations: there are prizes for these activities.
If you are interested in "Finding the Math in Music": please return the bottom portion of this letter to the school to register you and your family members for this activity. You will be taking one hour to learn about the math using the hand bells and vocal music. This one hour session will run from 6-7.

We're quite used to seeing companies update frames from year to year with slight geometry changes. Add a few mm to the reach, steepen the seat tube a bit, slacken the head angle a little, oh and change the colour of course! So it comes as no surprise that the new Pace RC529 hardtail is longer, slacker and has a new colour, but Pace hasn't added a few mm here and there, they've added a few INCHES!
Pace has really shaken up its range of steel hardtails for 2019. Back in September, we reported on the new RC627 which had seen some pretty radical changes, and now it's the 29er hardtail that has undergone similar geometry updates.
The Yorkshire based brand has really pushed reach numbers on the refreshed version of the RC529 and has sent us a geometry comparison chart showing the differences between the new frame and the 2018 model.
As you can see from the chart above, a size M RC529 from 2018 has a modest reach of just 418mm whereas the 2019 version of the bike grows by 46mm to an impressive 464mm! The large frame gets an even larger increase of 65mm for an overall reach of 483mm while an XL frame is now a stonking 506mm in reach. That's 70mm more than before.
We wouldn't generally be all that excited about another LLS (long, low, slack) hardtail, but the RC529 specs are seriously impressive too! It all looks so good.
The chainstays have been shortened to 5mm for a more playful ride and more rear wheel love, and thanks to sliding dropouts and built-in chain tensioners the length can be adjusted to ensure correct chain tension If you decide to run a single speed drivetrain.
In traditional hardcore hardtail fashion, the RC529 uses quality steel tubing, including Reynolds 853 and the slack 65° head angle is designed to accommodate forks with up to 140mm of travel. Although Pace calls the RC529 a 29er, there's also room in the backend to run plus sized 27.5in wheels with a max tyre width of 2.8in.
The 148 x 12mm Boost backend uses an included DT Swiss bolt-thru axle, while a 31.6mm dropper post is clamped into position with a Pace branded CNC seat post clamp.
Other nice features include external hose guides, stealth dropper post compatibility, ISCG-05 chain guide tabs, rack and mudguard mounts and a 73mm threaded BB shell.
Pace hasn't shared the frame weight just yet, but they have confirmed that this progressive hardtail will come in sizes M, L and XL in either Stealth Black or Matt Icelandic colours. Pricing is pretty keen too with frames costing just £575.
Head on over to the Pace Cycles website for more info.

All that extra reach, and then they've gone to a 73 seat angle instead of 76?
Is that a mistake, or have they just gone mad?
@honourablegeorge 73 is the 2018 model
Hmmmm. This or a SolarisMax?
also, new axle standard, 149 x 12… lol
@standi – just the table is wrong then, that makes a lot more sense.
Looks a lovely bike. Cheaper and slacker than a SolarisMax. Any chance of a group test? Maybe chuck in a Stanton while you're at it?
@honourablegeorge the geo table is correct but confusing, the white figures are for the 2018 model, the darker (harder to read) is for the new model. I agree though a group test would be good.
Would shortening the chainstay while lengthening the front center not make for a less balanced ride, or does the adjustable CS length help you tailor it to how you like?
Pace looks a lot like the Solaris Max, but the Stanton Switchback is significantly shorter. Stanton is prettier though!
"The chainstays have been shortened to 5mm" – that is going to make the backend pretty twitchy; clearance must surely be an issue?
@bungalistic – Yeah – I now realise that the new bike is 2019, not 2018. So have they actualy steepened the head angle, then? 66 verus 65 for 2018?
Hi guys, Sophie here from Pace! Thought I would answer a couple of these questions 🙂
Yes we have made the RC529 chainstay shorter, bear in mind – the RC529 has our slideout system so that you can adjust the chainstay length up to 13mm (Lengthen it by 13mm over the stated length on the geometry table which is always given with the slideout fully forward).
We have made the head tube angle 66, the reason is, is that we were asked by a lot of customers if they could fit a 120mm travel fork in the previous model. So we have tweaked the frontend geometry to open up the range of fork travel – more to what customers are requesting. This is a sensible request because of the inherent handling characteristics of 29 ers which are more stable in any case than a 27.5″ wheel running the same head tube angle.
We wanted to make the RC529 different to its sister model the RC627 – which is 130mm – 150mm travel with any 27.5″ tyre/wheel from a 2.2 up to a 2.8.
The design envelope of the RC529 is a 29 specific and can take any fork from 120mm-140mm. (We spec with the 140mm fork).
However, if you want to put a 150mm travel fork on the RC529 to increase travel and slacken the headtube angle, then you can because A.) The frame is strong enough to take the extra leverage, B.) The bb height is very low and C.) The seatube angle has been steepened.
Also, clearance will not be an issue as it is significantly wider then its previous model (it has a steeper seatube angle which also creates more clearance)
If anyone has any specific questions that need answering just drop me an email: firstname.lastname@example.com
🙂 Sophie
Looks pretty good,
but "shortened the chainstays"? there goes the front rear balance on larger sizes. Steeper head angle?
Maybe next year, eh
longer +24 reach, slacker 62.5 and 445mm stays please.
THAT would be a great winter bike
moving the right way Pace, to be congratulated for sure
Good post from Sophie, would be better with a 150 fork for sure
Will the Sturmey Archer three speed hub fit this frame?
Will I be able to fit a really really long stem and really really narrow handlebars?
@mudfish as mentioned with shortened chainstays on our RC529 it has our 'slideout system' so that you can adjust the chainstay length up to 13mm (Lengthen it by 13mm over the stated length on the geometry table which is always given with the slideout fully forward). So that is an additional 13mm if you want, so it doesnt have to be as 'short' as shown in the geometry above.
Also…we have made the seat tube steeper so you can weight the front end even better then its previous model 🙂 It will not effect any of the larger models, only in a positive way 🙂
@Superstar1 That is a question we have not been asked before nor fitted. We have fitted a Roholff hub before on our RC127's. It will also depend if that that Sturmey Archer is available as a thru axle boosted version and that there is a availability from Stermey Archer a fitting that allows the torq arm to be located onto a chainstay (universale bracket)
Anymore question drop me an email 🙂
For anyone interested i have set up a facebook page for the bike to track peoples builds / experiences…
search Pace RC627 / RC529
Are there any test rides or demo events available to try these new frames out?
Are any other manufacturers using such a steep seat tube angle?
This and the Solaris have the same(ish) reach, but that 76 degree angle compared to 73.4 moves the seat closer to the bars by 27mm on my setup meaning I will need to use a longer stem to keep my 'position' the same…

Adults Also Have Tantrums
Adults can also have tantrums, especially when overwhelmed with emotions such as anger, sadness, and jealousy.
When you hear the word 'tantrum', you probably imagine a 2 or 3-year-old child lying on the ground and screaming. However, adults also have tantrums. Sometimes, they get lost in their emotions. Specifically, emotions like frustration, jealousy, and disappointment.
According to behaviorism, the area of psychology that studies human behaviors based on stimuli and responses, tantrums are clearly maladaptive behaviors. Mainly because they don't achieve anything.
However, the fact that they don't lead to anything concrete, (or nothing really useful) doesn't mean that these behaviors have no meaning behind them. On the contrary, these emotional tantrums transmit a message that is very rich in content.
"Follow your heart but take your brain with you."
-Alfred Adler-
Between the ages two and four, tantrums are a normal part of a child's emotional development. They're nothing more than a challenge that every mother and father must learn to deal with calmly and effectively.
Now, sometimes you forget that simply by growing up and becoming an adult doesn't automatically give you the ability and maturity to recognize and control your emotions.
So much so, that we could unmistakenly say that there are many adults in your life who abound with the emotional intelligence of a 3-year-old child. Most often they didn't have a good sense of self during their childhood.
Likewise, they probably had no access to adequate help to channel and understand their own emotional universe. Thus, it's common for them to spend years carrying the same burden.
Adults also have tantrums due to impotence
A tantrum, temper tantrum or emotional tantrum consists of an exaggerated reaction to a frustrating situation. For example, children usually express anger by screaming, crying, kicking and a general loss of emotional control. There are different intensities.
However, what's always present is the disproportionate behaviors and the deficit in communication. Likewise, there's a level of incompetence when it comes to managing emotions and impulses.
In adults, on average, these tantrums don't result in physical aggression. There's no kicking, hitting, or biting. Whatsmore, in most cases they can even go unnoticed by the people in their immediate surroundings.
Let's take a look at an example. Claudia works at a law firm and is used to success. Every time she achieves a goal, she is rewarded with a bonus. However, when her coworkers have achieved the same success, Claudia can't stand it. But, she doesn't lie down on the floor or shout. In fact, she doesn't say anything at all.
Claudia limits herself to going to the bathroom and crying in a stall. Namely, because she can't tolerate that her companions' success surpasses her own at any given moment. At any rate, jealousy is eating her up inside and she doesn't know how to handle that discomfort.
Adults also have tantrums, but you must not get confused. Like children's tantrums, these emotional explosions, if they're real, don't try to manipulate anybody.
"Tantrums are instances where emotions reach an intolerable intensity and need to come out in some way. It's like being imprisoned in your own emotions and not knowing what to do with them whenever you don't get what you want."
Adults with frequent tantrums, what's the cause?
Not everyone expresses their tantrums as privately as Claudia does. It's also just as common to find people that never hesitate to make a complete scene during the expression of their tantrum. There's screaming, throwing objects to the ground. And worst of all, there is aggressiveness, where insults and disrespect also appear. But, what's behind all of these behaviors?
We said it at the beginning. In most cases, a tantrum is the demonstration of a clear emotional immaturity. They're the result of a lack of sense of self that's incapable of managing frustrations or disappointments. However, like any good professional we cannot ignore other causes to get an adequate diagnosis.
- Adults also have tantrums. But those who have them on a regular basis may have a personality disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, etc.
- Post-traumatic stress may also be the cause of this behavior.
- People with an autistic spectrum disorder may also show these behaviors.
I'm an adult who also has tantrums, what can I do?
Let's think about Claudia for a moment. Put yourself in her place and in the difficulties of asking for help. How can she tell somebody that her emotions completely get out of her control when her colleagues get are recognized and she isn't? How can she let others know if, in addition to her anger, there's also shame? She knows she shouldn't feel this way, but she doesn't know how to deal with it.
When you're an adult, it's very difficult to talk about the jealousy and frustration that certain situations cause you. However, nothing can be more positive than taking that step and asking for professional help. You will feel more capable, secure and free on a day-to-day basis.
Let's now reflect on a series of strategies that can help you in these cases. These are simple tips with which you can improve your capacity for self-control, instead of feeding your behavior whenever these emotions arise.
Steps to better handle your emotional tantrums
Check your expectations
If adults also have tantrums, it's because sometimes they have an unrealistic view of certain situations. In particular, they expect certain recognitions, support, benefits, or achievements that are unreasonable.
Don't inhibit negative emotions or let them erupt: channel them in a constructive way
Every time you experience some sort of frustration, let it manifest itself in another way. No screaming, no tears, no anger. Find a helpful way you can manifest it: talk to someone, do sports, paint, write, etc.
Identify those key situations that bring out your tantrums
For example, envy, not getting what you want at work or in your relationships, to name a few.
Once you've identified those situations, work on them
Create an internal dialogue or an action plan with which to act in an adequate, mature, and emotionally intelligent way whenever the situations appear.
In conclusion, you now know that adults also have tantrums. Moreover, you may have had one on a certain occasion. Therefore, if there's something that you certainly remember from them, it's that they're not exactly pleasant. They generate discomfort, create very uncomfortable environments and don't gain anything from them.
So, it's time to work on your emotions. Give yourself new outlets and resources that make you feel more competent.

September 12, 2008Way down south in Evansville, things are looking good. The AdvantAge Initiative survey provided some pleasant surprises, demonstrating higher than average rates of screening and vaccinations and pretty good evaluations of neighborhood quality of life. The folks at the area agency on aging (SWIRCA), with the leadership of John Graves and Jean Tillery, are jumping on the energy and enthusiasm that emerged from the successful Mid-American Institute on Aging in August. The Institute attracted 250 participants to learn about livable communities and get some inspiration from Sandy Markwood, Director of the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging.
Future planning will make use of survey data revealed today by Phil Stafford in a presentation at the Greater St. James Recreation and Education Center in downtown Evansville, a wonderful center funded by Evansville's own famous B-Ball player and IU grad Calbert Cheaney. It was a pleasure to also meet the church's Pastor Smith, 89 years old, who continues to complete 50 push-ups a day, along with a two mile walk. The good survey results around physical exercise suggest that Pastor Smith is a good role model for many!

National Council of Jewish Women, Denver Section Records
The National Council of Jewish Women, Denver Section (NCJW) was a women's philanthropic organization founded by Carrie Benjamin in October 1893 to serve the Denver, Colorado Jewish community. Most of the early members were members of Temple Emanuel in Denver and the collection details the contributions of women to social causes in Denver. Education was an early priority of the Denver Section and classes were held to serve Eastern European Jewish immigrants in the West Colfax area of Denver. The Council established a settlement house in West Denver for Jewish boys, worked with disabled children and initiated the Children's Traveling Theatre. During World War II, the Council was involved in the resettlement of Jewish refugees in Denver. In 1938 the Council opened a thrift shop at 27th Street and Welton Street in the Five Points area of Denver. The records include board of director meeting minutes, lists of officers and board members, correspondence, financial records, newspaper clippings, newsletters, bulletins, yearbooks, publications, invitations, scrapbooks and oral history audiocassette tapes.
- 1894-2018
- National Council of Jewish Women. Denver Section (Organization)
Biographical / Historical
Susan B. Anthony was determined that women should participate in the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893. Anthony assigned Hannah G. Solomon the task of organizing a group of Jewish women to participate in the Fair. Solomon invited 90 Jewish women to attend the events in Chicago. During discussions at the the Parliament of Religions of the Chicago World's Fair, Solomon convinced her Jewish colleagues of the need for a national organization, and so began the National Council of Jewish Women. Among the women attending the session was Carrie Benjamin, who returned home to Denver, Colorado and organized the Council's Denver section in October 1893. Thirty-nine women met at Temple Emanuel and elected Carrie Benjamin the first president.
Carrie Benjamin and the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) worked in the areas of religion, teaching, and philanthropy. Eventually the Council would take a stand on various social issues and reach out to help the community at large. Education was one of the Denver Section's first efforts. They taught classes on West Colfax Avenue to recent Eastern European immigrants, including cooking and sewing classes. Kindergartens (not yet a part of the public school system) were established. By 1908 the Council's adult evening classes offered a variety of subjects, including hammered brass, literature, dramatics, debating and Jewish studies.
In 1910 the Council supervised a summer playground at Cheltenham School on West Colfax Avenue and Julian Street. The Council also established a Citizen's Committee For Public Schools, which worked with other civic organizations to improve Denver's schools and to secure the necessary financial support by issuing bonds. The Council worked closely with Judge Ben Lindsey, founder of Denver's Juvenile Court, and founded a Settlement House in West Denver for Jewish boys. Council members worked regularly at Wallace School (a private school for children with brain injuries) and a group of Council women founded the Children's Traveling Theatre and performed in orphanages and hospitals.
Seraphine Pisko, who served as executive secretary at National Jewish Hospital, was elected to the National Board of the Council and in 1907 was president of the Denver Section. When she saw a sign at a hotel that proclaimed ''No Jews--no consumptives,'' the Council and the Denver B'nai B'rith Lodge successfully lobbied the Colorado Legislature for a bill to prohibit such language in signs and advertisements.
The Council participated in the resettlement of refugees during the Holocaust in Germany. The Council furnished apartments for the refugees, taught them English, and instructed them how to navigate in America. The Council's Committee for Service to the Foreign Born helped members of the Denver community bring European relatives to America. All the efforts were the beginning of a resettlement program that came to prominence when the Denver Jewish Family and Children's Service was established in 1945. The Council worked closely with this agency to develop a resettlement plan known as the ''Denver Plan,'' which became a model for similar programs in other cities. The Council also cooperated with other women's organizations to implement social programs. Through WICS (Women in Community Service), the Council screened and recruited young women for the Job Corps.
The NCJW continues to develop and implement programs to improve the quality of life for people of all ages, races and religious backgrounds, striving to ensure individual rights and freedoms. The information in the organizational history is from ''Denver Section: Council of Jewish Women'' by Marjorie Hornbein in the Rocky Mountain Jewish Historical Notes Volume 3, Number 2, July 1980.
