Glamour Owl Apparel Giveaway!
I am excited to offer my first Healthy Please Giveaway! Glamour Owl Apparel has graciously offered a tank and a pair of yoga pants from their new spring collection! Before I review, I want you to know I am not receiving any form of payment for offering my review. I met Marie a little over a year ago when she offered a trunk show at my studio. We became friends right away. We were both trying to start our businesses that we were extremely passionate about, both with a love for fitness, people and fashion. I began to sell Glamour Owl at my studio and my clients fell in love with the brand. Glamour Owl is a lifestyle clothing company that was developed on the philosophy that people should be dressed beautifully and comfortably so that they can shine. Plus, she's a Charlotte girl which I like! Continue reading to the bottom for instructions on how you can enter my giveaway!read more
I Feel Frustrated...I Am Not Getting The Results I Want From My Workouts. Help!
I hear frustrations from students sometimes when they do not get the results they want from their workouts as quickly as they want them. While this post is focused on Pilates workouts, the advice here can be applied to your other workouts as well. I first ask folks how often they practice Pilates. Then I ask them how long they have been studying Pilates. Pilates is meant to be practiced for a lifetime. I have been teaching long enough to know that students who stick with it get results. The physical results will come, but the mental results are immediate! I also see the best results in students who eat healthy. I am a firm believer that what you put into your body is just as important as how you move your body. In addition...YOU MUST BE CONSISTENT! I've said it before, but no workout program is going to bring you success if you are not consistent.read more
My Pilates Perspective On Getting Organized...Project Organization!
I am an unorganized perfectionist. Is that possible? I like for things to be a certain way, of course, that is not the way life happens is it? I feel stress when I am on a schedule that changes or I have a plan that does not work. I feel my body tense up and my mind starts spinning to figure out a way to make things the most productive. As much as I try to be organized, it's hard for me. I cannot use my iphone calendar, it simply does not work for me. I have tried multiple apps and they do not work. I am just a planner girl. I like something I can carry with me, open up and write down. Except....my planner starts to look like a scattered mess of multiple clipboards, notebooks and calendars! What dos this have to do with Pilates? Organization is crucial in the Pilates world so we do not book clients at the same time, we allow time for our own workouts, time for operating the business, and planning for my family. I want to share my research with you. A healthy lifestyle means less stress, right?read more
It's time to set your fitness and weight loss goals!
The new year is exciting for many, because we eat a lot over the Holidays knowing that we are going to get back on track in January! For some of us, we eat way to much all year long and we eat the wrong foods. I am careful what I eat most of the time, but I do tend to indulge more than I should over the Christmas Holidays. This week I want to help you set goals!read more
Tips to help you meet your New Year's Fitness and Diet Goals!
Happy New Year! It is January and studios are getting busy! Most of the studio owners I know (including myself) spend November and December preparing to make January wonderful for you! I understand because I am a mom of three busy kids, I work full-time, and sometimes I just get tired! Don't beat yourself up. I want to help you set some goals for the new year. As a personal trainer, this is a very exciting time of year for me because it's my chance to get you to commit to your workouts which will bring a better quality of life for YOU! My goal is to take my clients to a place where they MUST workout. This Christmas I was very proud of my clients. They obviously wanted time off to be with their families, but when given the option to keep their private sessions or cancel them, almost all of them wanted to keep them and were willing to be scheduled at a time that worked for me. This is because they have been dedicated for the year (or many more) and know that a week off and can take them one step back. Don't worry if you are new to fitness. Baby steps! I am here to help you along with any good and caring trainer you may seek for help! Below are a few tips! You can do it!read more
Pilates and Teaching Clients With Shoulder Pain
Do you or your clients ever deal with shoulder pain? Most instructors will have a client at some point who has shoulder pain. I have had a few clients who have shoulder pain unrelated to Pilates, but it makes me think long and hard about the exercises I include in their workouts. My journey to find the answers led me to a few Pilates instructors who are also Physical Therapists. I simply asked them for the "Do's and Don'ts" for working with shoulder issues when teaching or practicing Pilates. Please hear from my colleagues who offer great advice.read more
Why Is Flexibility Important?
First and foremost......stretching feels good, right? Well, I guess that depends on who you ask. I love it, and cannot get enough of it. However, I have a couple of clients who do not like to stretch. For many men, especially, it hurts. Give it time and you will enjoy it, too!read more
Season 3 Episode 5 - I Was A Homeland Extra In "The Yoga Play"

Why Is Core Strength So Important?
Mostly everyone has heard or used the term "core strength" at some point. But what defines core strength? Many people think that core strength means using your abs....a couple of sit-ups and you're good to go. Unfortunately, that is not the case. If it were there would be fewer muffin tops and a lot less back pain. In the picture below I was pressing my legs and arms opposite directions into the tree, but without my core strength I would not be able to hold steady.read more

Hi everyone!
My name is Dayana Sarova, and I am a sophomore at American University, where I am pursuing a major in International Studies. I was born in Krasnodar, Southwest Russia, where I lived until I moved to D.C. for college. During this year in Olson Scholars, I plan to focus my research on the abuse of diplomatic immunity and the effects it has on bilateral and multilateral relations between states, as well as possible implications such offenses have for a sending nation's image.

St1ckumup asked:
hi there, has anyone heard of RUNDLES ENFORCEMENT in the past ? any experiences with these ?
the council tax debt that was passed to bristow & sutor previously; has since been passed back to council & now with rundles enforcement; who have since sent me about 5 notices all at once for different amounts!
unsure how to proceed with them so far. i just ignored B&S! so what now ??
any help / advice fully appreciated. thanks.
Faljay replied:
Check this out:
http://www.steveedgedev.co.uk/rundles/p … onduct.pdf
[ http://www.steveedgedev.co.uk/rundles/pdf/rundles-code-of-conduct.pdf ]
And make sure they follow their own rules.
Bailiffs may not break in to your home without a court order to do so, and that has not yet happened concerning Council Tax arrears, and is almost exclusively meant for criminal offence and dealings with HMRC. If you do let them in, they may force entry on a return visit.
Print off as many Denial of Implied Right of Access notices as you need and place them up at all windows and doors. Send them the denial letter as well. Both found here:
As to their letters showing varying amounts, you need to get clarification which is correct as they re using confusing practices. If they persist in not supplying you with accurate information, first complain to Rundles and if no joy, complain to the court, as they are ultimately responsible for any enforcement agency's actions.
St1ckumup replied:
hey there, many thanks for the info , excellent!!
may be a silly question but, am just wondering can i send just 1 Denial of Implied Right of Access notice via post to them regarding the 5 notices they have sent me ? or do i have to send 5 notices separately ? they are different amounts but all for council tax.? thanks again.
Faljay replied:
Send a single, Denial of Implied Right of Access letter, found on the Bailiff Template Letter page, and list each of their 5 notices to cover them all.
St1ckumup replied:
Hey guys,
just an update on the above post.
Rundles enforcement agents have sent me a letter today , this is what it says –
cancel tax debt
prior notice of intended proceedings
the above debt remains outstanding despite previous applications for payment.
we have made arrangements to remove your goods during the course of the next few days and would prefer you were present so that we can agree the list of items removed.
If payment is not made and we are unable to complete our proposed actions, our client will consider further action which may include an application for a warrant of arrest , a charging order on your property or a possible application for bankruptcy.
To avoid this action which will incur further considerable costs please contact us immediately by telephone on (0845) 658 5030 to make payment.
Ok folks thanks for taking the time to read . so just wondering how to proceed from this point ? shall I just send the rights of implied removal of access letters again to them ? not really sure what to do from here! Just a little bit worried that they could / may possibly hire a locksmith and break in or sneak in when I'm not around ( not that they've mentioned it in any letters but just a bit worried ) crafty buggers though so wouldn't put it past these. All help fully appreciated many thanks for your time.
mareo replied:
if no car on drive then sit tight, they will pass it back to council, they saying as much in their letter, the bit about arrest, taking goods is scare mongering, only goods they may take without you being there would be a car parked outside as they are vulnerable to being stolen by these crooks –
park cars away
St1ckumup replied:
Many thanks.
We'll I don't currently drive so ok with that.
Shall I send the denials of access again?? or leave it as iv sent them before??
All the best!!!
Thanks for help & reassurance!
mareo replied:
no need to re send, put some up around your home if you have not done so thus far –

Instead of blocking the window with a rectangular mirror, this bathroom used a smaller round one set up on a narrow stem.
Round mirrors get matching silver sconces in this bathroom.
Cream bathroom walls pair perfectly with white beadboard wainscoting, while an ornate wooden mirror hangs above a vessel sink installed on top of an old painted dresser.
Weathered wood gives rustic panache to this bathroom vanity and the room's walls. A round mirror cozily fits the smaller space.
Brass fixtures and a large basket for towels add an element of warmth to the white vanity. Round mirrors over the sinks are another softening touch.
This bathroom's friendly Mediterranean style gets a contemporary upgrade with the neon lighting on the round mirrors and metallic sheen of the tile backsplash. The light wood vanity and stone floor are a casual, practical choice that also keeps the room feeling light.
A beautiful round mirror fills the space above this bathroom's vanity and doesn't feel a bit imposing.
A rustic wood shelving unit becomes a charming vanity with the addition of a countertop, sink and round mirror.
This custom-designed circular medicine cabinet measures in at 42 inches providing much-needed storage space. The mirror splits open to reveal shelving, its off-center position balancing out the sink's handles and the vanity's cabinetry down below.
Stone bricks make a handsome backdrop in this bathroom for the round, black mirror and honey-colored wood vanity.
A small bathroom brings chic textural interest to the space with ridged wallpaper. Above the vanity, a round mirror offers up another unusual touch.
Soft brown and white stripes give tailored tidiness to the wall behind a bathroom vanity, complemented by a rustic round wood mirror. Yellow flowers add a ray of sunshine.
This condo bathroom isn't big, but a light palette, large mirrors and a glass wall in between the shower and tub give the room an airy feel.
Lavender is a whimsical choice for this small bathroom, accented by pops of brown and melon orange. A walk-in shower with a sliding glass door both saves space and adds a welcome luxe touch.
This modern bathroom keeps things cool with a slate gray-and-white palette and streamlined style. A huge walk-in shower also offers a tub.
The weathered wood finish of the vanity introduces a welcome organic note to this bathroom and provides contrast to all the clean, white elements.
Two round mirrors provide a visual break from the otherwise sleek, clean lines in this elegant bathroom. The black vanity countertop offers a splash of contrast in the light space, which predominantly features neutrals and whites.
This clean white vanity features chrome and ceramic fixtures that blend with the rest of the bathroom. A glamorous round mirror adds interest and sparkle to the all-white space.

As part of efforts in forging a collective action against Corruption in the Nigerian Business environment, the United Nations Global Compact hosted another session with Small and Medium Enterprises in the country, to explore the measures and steps that should be taken to strengthen governance measures.
It had in attendance stakeholders from various sectors in the economy, which was a significant improvement from other workshops so far hosted by the UNGC, since the inception of its activities in 2016.
The forum was an opportunity to assess critical issues from the report of the "UNGC Nigeria Anti-Corruption Workshop for SMEs in the Fight Against Corruption", developed in July, 2017.

Corruption: An Albatross Around Our Necks
A loaf of bread placed on a table in a room without preservation gets mouldy within 48 hours. Options available to us are to cut off the moldy portion and still leave it on the table or keep the bread in the fridge ab initio. The temperature in the fridge provides a conducive environment that is kept constant which preserves the whole bread. This process demands extra effort from the provision of a fridge to the constant power supply that creates that enabling environment/temperature that preserves the whole bread. It therefore follows that decay (and thus corruption) happens naturally, except definite/specific interventions are introduced to control it. Continue Reading
The 5th Annual Christopher Kolade Lecture on Business Integrity!
The 2008 global financial crisis re-emphasized the importance of compliance and risk management but perhaps a tale of the fall of Britain's Oldest Bank, Barings, could further buttress the point. Even though, the fall of Lehman Brothers and numerous banking scandals after Barings by far incurred losses of greater magnitude, there remains a story to be told with the fall of Barings Bank hence the apt theme for this year's event:
"Prevention is better than cure, even on the issue of Corruption"

Time to Clean the Augean Stables in the Private Sector
The ravages of bribery and corruption is a topic that has obviously attracted a lot of scholarly comments and opinions but very little action. This short article is aimed at examining the claims that corruption risks in the corporate sector are measurable. It aims at identifying the common forms of corruption in the corporate sector and how to eliminate same. The closest paradigm of such exercise is the OECD's Good Practice Guidance on Internal Controls, Ethics and Compliance which works by identifying certain "corporate red flags" including bribery, kickbacks, facilitation payment, charitable and political donations (sponsorship, travel, and promotional expenses), collusion, cartels, patronage, Illegal information brokering, and tax evasion.

Nigeria: The Rotten Barrel?
'A rotten apple spoils the whole barrel' is the proverbial saying that has been used by many to describe how corruption spreads. This suggests that a bad person can infect/corrupt a group of people. The story of Eve and the serpent in the Garden of Eden corroborates this notion. The serpent deceived on Eve, who went on to deceive Adam, and Adam in turn infected the entire world with sin, as the story goes. However, you are likely to read stories about rotten apples, not about rotten barrels. So what happens when the barrel is rotten? As corruption is both systemic and endemic in Nigeria, it begs the question: Is Nigeria a rotten barrel? In such a situation, where are the positive influences expected to come from? Can those who are themselves down help others up? Can many wrongs make right? What are the implications of tackling corruption in a rotten barrel? Continue Reading

Highlights from the Symposium on Funding & Sustaining Anti-Corruption Efforts in Nigeria
The Convention on Business Integrity (CBi) and the INTEGRITY Organization (Limited by Guarantee) held a symposium in Abuja on March 10th, 2016 (10h30 -13h00). The aim of the symposium was to spark a debate on how to effectively fund and sustain anti-corruption efforts in the Nigeria. For the fight against corruption to be effective and far reaching, there needs to be concrete ways of funding, driving and sustaining anti-corruption efforts in Nigeria that complement's the president's body language. There needs to be more support from leaders of the business community, all arms of government, civil society and the general public.

Relationship Myth # 3: "Marriage Should Feel Easy and Natural"
Relationship Myth # 3: "Marriage Should Feel Easy and Natural"
There is one thing that I commonly see during marriage counseling in Wake Forest, NC: couples who love each other but don't know how to reconnect most often tell me that they want their marriage to be "easy" and "healthy". But don't know how to achieve that.
Why do people think it's okay and appropriate to invest time, money, and energy into their careers, education, and hobbies, but not in their relationships? We expect our romantic relationships to be self-sustaining and to self-maintain, not realizing that healthy relationships are hard and require a great amount of effort, care, and energy (to begin with). We have learned so far that everything worth having in life requires effort, dedication, and lots and lots of energy. Why would our relationships be different?
Why are Relationships so Hard?
Imagine not investing all those years, money, and energy into your education or your career? In raising your kids? Or cooking an amazingly tasty meal without standing in a kitchen for an hour and a half or so? Having a fabulous hairdo without sitting patiently at your hairdresser's? Impossible. It's really simple – if you don't invest time, hard work, and energy into something, you won't be able to enjoy it.
A healthy, conscious relationship requires you to devote time to a meaningful, open communication with your partner each day. This is the only way to feel emotionally connected with your spouse.
Of course, you can't have an honest communication with your partner without slipping into a conflict. But don't try to avoid conflicts. No matter what you may think, conflicts are not necessarily a bad thing. They can help you gain a better understanding of each other's thinking patterns and feelings. Furthermore, conflicts can help you understand each other's needs and expectations and learn how to fulfill them.
If you learn how to have these moving conversions with your partner habitually, there are so many beautiful experiences awaiting your marriage, including feeling heard, seen, and supported.
Sometimes, the challenges in a relationship are just too overwhelming. So, you might think, "This is not worth it. Maybe there is someone better for me out there. Maybe I should try with someone else." We often get tricked into "the grass is greener on the other side" crap that doesn't allow us to try harder with what we already have. While you may indeed be able to find a more fitting partner out there, keep in mind that no one is perfect. Which means that the new relationship will be equally hard and unfulfilling if you don't work on it.
How to Nurture Your Relationship?
Building a gratifying and passionate relationship is not easy. However, if you are willing to commit to the relationship, there are certain things you can do to enhance or retrieve the connection with your partner.
· Be Honest about Your Feelings and Celebrate Your Love
In a healthy passionate relationship, all emotions are welcome. You need to learn how to share your deepest feelings, needs, and fantasies without fear of being judged or rejected. A complete honesty about who you truly are and letting your partner do the same can help you feel accepted, understood, and connected.
Appreciate each other and the ways you enrich each other's lives every day. Learn to love yourself first. Learn how to love your partner in the way they need it – don't be afraid to learn how to be vulnerable, dependable, and emotionally attached to your partner.
· Be Devoted to Growth: Both Individual and As a Couple
One of the most important human needs is a self-actualization need – we all need to grow and develop emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually – and being a conscious couple, you value an individual growth and strive for personal expansion while committing to complete union with each other.
· Engage in Conversation
Hesitancy to bring to light your deepest thoughts and feelings or failing to listen to your partner's feeling may create misconceptions and false beliefs that lead to unrealistic expectations, poor decision-making, and inevitably, disappointment in a relationship.
Practice acknowledging your spouse's feelings rather than being judgmental because openly discussing the feelings and thoughts in an atmosphere of complete honesty is a big step towards a happy, fulfilling relationship.
· Accept Your Share of Responsibility
If you want to rekindle connection in the relationship, you need to take full responsibility for your thoughts, feelings, and actions. It would be awesome if Instead of engaging in endless unproductive conflicts and blame games, the both of you can mindfully reflect on the situation and accept your cut of responsibility for what has happened. This kind of attitude will help you overcome the conflicts quickly and more efficiently. Also, being honest and realistic about your responsibility will help create a deeper connection with your partner.
Most of us tend to take our relationships for granted, somehow believing that they will flourish without any tending and care. Having a happy, rewarding relationship, however, requires a lot of work, effort, and energy.
I hope this information helps you to better understand why relationships are not as easy we usually think. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to give me a call at (703)347 3200 and schedule an appointment in my Wake Forest office.

In our next band spotlight we chat to Chambers' Aeris and Ellie about their music.
S] Talk us through your mission statement as a band?
Ellie: I'm not sure that's something we can explain really I think being in a band should be a very natural creative thing and having a mission statement sort of sets a structure to it. Generally, we like to enjoy what we're doing and love what we create. We aim to produce music that challenges what we're already influenced by.
S] What inspires you outside of music – think film, art or people?
Ellie: I was introduced to Marina Abramovic by a friend last year. We both love how she lay's it all on the line for her art. I'm also a big fan of Yayoi Kusama, Fiona Rae, Leonora Carrington and sometimes, I don't mind Tracey Emin. I'm drawn to that type of human emotion, it's very real to me. Generally, I tend to like art which is very dark and beautiful at the same time. I like to read too, I really like H. P Lovecraft – weird dark stuff – and I like to read dark poetry. I'm not sure what it is about dark stuff that intrigues me so much, perhaps it's the mystery and the unknown. Happy people inspire me generally. I have a lot of love for people who make the best out of bad situations.
S] What ideas and experiences inspired 'They're In The House'?
Aeris: We watched the film It Follows and felt an urge to to write a song about it. It's not just a case of films though, we get the same feeling to write through pretty much any experience that has an impact on us.
S] And 'Disappear' as well…?
Aeris: Disappear is a perfect example of letting your subconscious write a song. I think Tomas Cummings (Leeds Music Scene) captured it beautifully. "Lyrically dark, they seem to be a reflection of the self, challenging notions of identity and can be viewed as tragic in some places, yet has a tortured soul breaking free of the bonds of oppression in other moments especially with the lyrics – 'I'm still alive, but the tears weigh me down. All it takes, is the words that I'm crowned. Stare at the monster, please take me away. They know it's hard, what a beautiful pain'."
S] How did you get involved with Warren Records?
Ellie: Our involvement with Warren Records started when I first contacted Stew Baxter for an interview to promote The Warren. After a long natter I mentioned I was in a band, pinged him our new track and he loved it. It seems pretty apt to release it through Warren given what they stand for and the general aesthetic of Chambers. Stew has been lovely to work with.
S] How do you feel about the exposure you've had thus far?
Aeris: Our debut single Disappear has been getting really great reviews. Radio stations and DJs are playing Disappear and saying some really nice things about our sound. Warren Records have been great in terms of social media. We've been really pleased to have been asked to play alongside some great bands such as Black Honey, Black Delta Movement, Sister Mantos, Shopping, Galaxians, HECK and Dinosaur Pile-Up. Most of what people know about us are from our live performances.
S] Talk to us about your goals with regards to raising awareness about transgender issues?
Aeris: What, I'm Transgender? Does dad know? We're all on a journey of self discovery. It doesn't matter if you're transgender or a natural born female. People raise awareness everyday in their lives without even realising it. Just being you and not letting other peoples opinions interfere with what you want to do. That in itself seems to inspire people from any walk of life.
Ellie: I think if Aeris can inspire anyone to be comfortable with who they are, transgender or not, that's a good thing. We never wanted it to be the main focus of what we do though as it's not why we formed, but if what we do helps that's always a fantastic thing to happen!
S] What are your biggest plans for the rest of the year?
Aeris: Get our album finished and work on organising our next tour.
Ellie: I would ideally like to own a really lazy grey cat I can do cat stretches with.. don't think it'll happen til 2018 though.

For many, LEGO bricks and pinball machines are mere school-day memories. For Bre Burns, they're the ultimate geek mash-up.
Burns, half of the LEGO enthusiast duo Renegade Bricks, built a fully functional pinball machine with more than 15,000 plastic blocks and a brilliant throwback theme.
As detailed by The Brothers Brick, the tabletop game stands 2.5 feet tall, and, aside from a slab of plywood bearing the unit every inch of Benny's Spaceship Adventure pinball machine is made from LEGO.
That includes three Mindstorms NXT "brain" bricks, a handful of PowerFunctions lights and battery boxes, several Mindstorms steel castor balls, and 30-plus official rubber bands.
The idea for Benny's Spaceship Adventure, Burns told The Brick Brothers, came in March 2017; she unveiled the final version at this year's Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle, about a year after the project began.
"I realized that, like most real pinball machines, leveling issues, realignments, and periodic breakdowns needed to be addressed," she told TBB. "But I was able to achieve my goal of giving a couple hundred people the opportunity to play it."
Burns spent between 200 and 300 hours designing, building, and programming the machine. She even stuck diligently to her self-prescribed challenge to use only official LEGO products.
"No gluing, screwing, fabrication, or modification of any of the parts, including balls, rubber bands, and even the use of the LEGO NXT-G software instead of another programming platform," she explained.
The journey from piles of colorful bricks to a working pinball game was not easy, though: Constantly hammered by soaring steel balls, the table "flew apart repeatedly," according to TBB.
But what has LEGO taught us if not to persevere in the face of adversary—be it the frustration of missing pieces, or the all-out rage of unexpectedly stepping barefoot on said missing piece?
That's exactly what Burns did.
"LEGO are meant to be played with," she told TBB. "And I wanted this to be an inspiration to young builders, so getting people to play it and seeing kids' faces light up made all the difficulties totally worth it."
The machine is a beautiful nod to LEGO's "classic" space sets—the blue, grey, white, and yellow collection of cosmic cubes that inspired The LEGO Movie's enthusiastic astronaut Benny, aka 1980-Something Space Guy.

I collect San Franciscana, primarily old books and postcards, mostly related to the Gold Rush and the 1906 earthquake. At an antique store many years ago, I bought a lovely stereoscopic slide showing the Victorian Cliff House (middle thumbnail at top of this page) from Ocean Beach. This card later inspired me to scrounge on eBay for more San Francisco stereoviews, mostly during a period of about ten months in 2000. The supply of the more common S.F. stereoviews (typically related to the 1906 earthquake and fire) appears to outweigh the demand, so they are cheap; I didn't pay more than $4 for any single slide, and my collection cost about $200 in toto for nearly a hundred slides. Older stereoviews are available, like the wonderful Carleton Watkins stereoviews, but they are usually quite expensive.
This page lists 102 stereoviews from my collection. I also have a number of duplicates, not cataloged here. Most date from just after the 1906 earthquake and fire. Quality varies widely, both in the quality of the original and in wear. The originals are all roughly 7" x 3.5", here scanned in color at 300 dpi. Many originally came in sets. Some are reproductions.
My More San Francisco Stereoviews page displays additional San Francisco stereoviews not included in my collection. My San Francisco Buildings page gives more information about some of the buildings.
While these photos of post-earthquake San Francisco are interesting per se, of course you should view them in stereo. The Wikipedia stereoscopy article gives general information on stereo imaging. There are two different ways to view stereo images without a stereoscope, called freeviewing. With the normal left-right image orientation, you can focus past the image to see the stereo image (parallel or walleyed viewing). Alternatively, you can focus in front of a right-left reversed image to see the stereo image (crosseyed viewing). Freeviewing is nicely described here, with simple illustrations and good viewing advice; I won't repeat it here. My Stereograms page shows a few of my own stereo photos.
My browser-based viewer (pure PHP/CSS, no Java) displays either a normal or a reversed image. It also lets you turn on small white boxes at the sides of each image. The boxes give your eyes a strong clue for converging the stereo image, which makes freeviewing much easier for me (your mileage may vary). I like to view from about 6' away from our big HDTV, using the viewer with reversed images, boxes, and width 1600 so that the slide fills the browser window. The best images (Siegel, Cooper and Underwood) look great, a real 3D window into the past.

The Gods of Norðlond—The Aesir—are more than just mythological, ineffable entities: they walk among the people of the world, offering their wisdom and might to those they find worthy. This book offers detailed information on the denizens of Asgard, the divine realm worshipped by the people of Norðlond and its surrounding regions.
The book presents additional options and guidelines presented for Clerics who choose to devote themselves to the worship of just one instead of the pantheon as a whole. Also included are more than twenty new Holy Might abilities available for Asgardian Clerics and Holy Warriors to bring the word . . . or the sword . . . to those that need it.
The book is 16 pages long, in 8×10 format, in full color. Written by Kevin Smyth, who just couldn't stop writing after we put the bug in his ear with Norðlondr Fólk. Thanks to Jake Harrison whose casual "what about . . . " question led to the very rapid proposal and approval of this book!
As an add-on, it will be $5 PDF, $10 Print-only, or $13 Print + PDF. If you want it, simply adjust your pledge. This book will print and ship together with the rest. No waiting!
For Asgard!

I have implemented a mutex on an embedded system that have armv7 processor and a basic scheduler
There are several instructions in armv7 instruction set that are used for power efficiency.
Two of these instructions are WFE (wait for event) and WFI (wait for interrupt), the instructions enter the processor to idle mode until an event is raised or an interrupt is raised,accordingly.
Also the processor will exit idle mode if the condition that accompanied the instruction is true.
I could use one to these instructions when i failed to acquire the mutex thus the processor will be idle through the remaining of the time slice until a timer interrupt is raised and then the scheduler will context switch to another task.
If i am not concerned with power consumption is there really a reason to use these instructions instead of busy looping?

The Revivalist Botanical Gin Harvest Expression
The Harvest Expression shows complex spice notes that balance the Juniper nicely. Cinnamon, lemon verbena, Christmas cake and so much more. This has a distinctly bold mouthfeel with notes of Kaffir lime, fresh cut violets and the essence of cloves and burnt orange peel. This is a gin one can actually sip on its own, and would taste great with just a simple dash of bianco vermouth. A straight gin for the "barrel-finished" gin lover, this one is complex enough, yet still refreshingly vivacious!
Brothers Don and Scott Avellino took an interesting approach to that idea and have begun producing seasonally inspired gins to showcase different botanical mixes that each make for a spirit with gusto! The bottlings are appropriately named "The Revivalist." Given gin's resurgence in the spirits world, it is a logical place for a small, craft distillery to start. Housed in a converted, restored barn, and nestled around 45 miles west of Philadelphia's City Center, Brandywine Branch Distillers began making artisan spirits from grain to bottle in 2016. They use a custom built alembic still and have installed fermentation tanks made of local Douglas Fir, definitely modeled on an "old school" operation. Don, Scott, and their team are dedicated to preserving the traditions of craft and producing spirits that discerning drinkers will want to return to time and again.

Guy makes Custom 3D Catan Board with Resin Cast Pieces on Laser Cut Tiles
Imgur user 'roryjacobevans' has managed to design a custom 3D Catan board with resin cast pieces on laser cut tiles. For those who are unaware, Catan refers to the Settlers of Catan which is a classic multiplayer board game by Klaus Teuber.
Players take on the role of settlers as they strive to earn rewards for growing their settlements as they trade and acquire new resources. For a home-made Catan board to mimic the same quality as the original Catan board is quite appreciable. Here's a look at what one person was able to achieve on his own.

Part of the reason why small business debt collection is better left to the professional debt collection agency is a federal regulation called the FDCPA, which is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The rule stands for the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and it was signed into law to protect consumers from unfair debt collection practices.
This post will provide you with what you need to know about the FDCPA as it relates to small business debt collection and the relationship between companies and their third-party partners. Private lenders for personal loans Canada is dedicated to connecting you with the most reputable lenders with low rates and no upfront fees.
Small Business Debt Collection and FDCPA Rules
The FDCPA was really written for consumers, to protect them from debt collectors. Prior to the law, debt collectors could call up consumers anywhere at any time in a practice that bordered on harassment. The FDCPA established rules for debt collectors. It defines debt collectors as "any person who uses any instrumentality of interstate commerce or the mails in any business the principal purpose of which is the collection of debts."
When conducting small business debt collection, here are five important rules spelled out within the FDCPA that you should pay close attention to:
- It is the responsibility of the third-party debt collection agency to provide consumers with proof of their debt. This makes communication between the business and the debt collection agency very important. If the records are wrong or communication fails, the consumer could be contacted unnecessarily.
- Debt collectors may never abuse or harass the consumer by threatening them. The harassment could take many forms – excessive phone calls to work or family members, or using profane language, or even publishing lists of consumers that have failed to pay and fallen behind on their obligations.
- A debt collection agency can never lie in order to capture revenue. Unethical debt collectors could falsely claim they are attorneys or from the IRS or misrepresent themselves. They cannot claim you've committed a crime if you haven't and certainly not misrepresent the amount of money you owe. Certainly, they can't threaten with legal actions they aren't able to really fulfill.
- It's important to note that, without court proceedings, they can't threaten to garnish wages or bank accounts. Too, federal benefits such as military annuities and Social Security cannot be garnished for credit card debt, medical debt, or personal loans.
- The FDCPA also forbids debt collectors from giving false or misleading information about you to anyone. They also can't send a consumer a document that looks like a court document – unless it really is one.
The FDCPA protects consumers from harassment and abuse by debt collectors.
While the FDCPA outlines rules for professional debt collectors, it's important to note that the company behind the small business debt collection agency is liable for these actions, both in the court of public opinion and under the law. For example, a local retailer that uses a debt collection agency to collect on past due invoices could experience a PR nightmare if the used a third-party vendor that didn't follow these rules. That could have a direct impact on their bottom line. Or, even a big company, like a health system, that failed to select the right debt collection agency, could be fined if their partner firm failed to follow these rules.

Samsung Electronics will expand the use of quantum dots, which are inorganic materials generally used in producing display panels for TVs, to memory semiconductors and sensors. With differentiated materials, the company plans to improve the competitiveness in its major industries, including electronics and semiconductors, and develop new markets like biotechnology.
During the 9th International Conference on Quantum Dots held at the Ramada Plaza Jeju Ocean Front on Jeju Island on May 26, Jang Hyuk, executive vice president of Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology, delivered a keynote address, saying, "As Quantum Dot technology continues to develop and evolves into totally new technology, which we never had before, it will lead the growth of the display market. It is important to research and develop quantum dots in order to understand the crystal structure and synthesis process, improve the efficiency and add new functions."
Jang, one of Samsung Fellows which were given only to Samsung Group's key technology workers in 2011, is a key figure who leads the R&D in quantum dot technology. He is considered to be the world's leading expert on energy conversion and storage technologies, such as automotive lithium-ion battery, flexible secondary battery and portable fuel cell battery.
Jang stressed that the company will advance its TV business by using Samsung's quantum dot technology. He said, "Samsung Electronics' third-generation quantum-dot TV to be released next year will have better color coordinates and color filters and lower power consumption."
He also said that its quantum dot technology will be expanded to not only TV but also memory semiconductor, sensor and biotechnology sectors. For sensors, it will be developed into photo-detectors which can detect ultraviolet and infrared rays. Also, the technology can be used as a "marker" in the body in the bio sector. In particular, it can help improve the degree of integration in memory conductors. With the quantum dot technology in which Samsung has a big lead over its competitors, the company can strengthen the competitiveness in new business and increase the added value.
He said, "In a bid to deliver continuous innovation in quantum dots, it is important to carry out an integrated program, including research and development and technology development of products, components and materials."
Jang also revealed confidence in its technology ahead of others. He said, "Samsung Electronics' quantum dot technology is 1.5 years ahead of those of competitors in a conservative point of view, while being two years ahead in views of the outside. We produce far better products than companies which use cadmium quantum dot with our non-cadmium quantum dot technology."
This is because Samsung Electronics has made an active research investment in the quantum dot sector in the last five years through its Visual Display (VD) Business Division and Advanced Institute of Technology. Jang said, "When competitors considered a next-generation product, Samsung started the R&D in quantum dots considering a next-next-generation product. We expected that the non-cadmium quantum dot market would open up so we made a bold decision to stop R&D in cadmium quantum dots early and start new R&D in non-cadmium quantum dots."
Meanwhile, Samsung will continue to boost joint research with great scholars at home and abroad in order to strengthen its original technology. Currently, the company are working together with major quantum dot research institutes, such as U.C. Berkeley Lab, Los Alamos National Laboratory, MIT and Seoul National University.

"For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come." –Hebrews 13:14 ESV
Restoration is here! His name is Jesus! This is our anthem. This is our sound. Restoration Church remains committed to lifting this banner high over New Orleans and among the nations.
We are excited to announce our impending adoption by Williams Blvd. Baptist Church of Kenner, LA, as an official mission church. So what does this mean? Beginning Sunday, September 9, 2018 10:45AM we'll combine our Sunday gathering with Williams Blvd. Baptist Church at 3000 Williams Blvd., Kenner, LA, 70065. Additionally, our members are encouraged to connect prior with Williams Blvd. Baptist Church's regular Sunday Bible Fellowship at 9:30AM. For more information: http://www.williamsblvd.org
Restoration Church will launch a mid-week gathering in the Metairie area this Fall 2018. More details will be released soon. In the meantime our core team will continue to gather to read, pray, and share with one another and our community at the home of Pastor Dean Ross in Metairie, LA.
The vision for "Restoration: Next" is to spend this season in preparation to replant Restoration Church in 2019 and beyond in a new location alongside Williams Blvd. Baptist Church with a strong core team dedicated to the mission and vision of the church for New Orleans and the nations!
So is Restoration Church coming to an end?
Absolutely not! Restoration Church was born out of a vision for our city and community to experience the power of restoration rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ. We officially launched in December 2013 under the leadership of Pastor Dean Ross as a replant of the historic Lakeside Baptist Church of Metairie, LA. Our mission has been clear since day one: Love God and Love People. We are blessed to report greater than 30 souls have been saved and baptized through this work since its inception and we believe the best is yet to come!
Why meet on Sundays with another church?
Williams Blvd. Baptist Church is the home church of Pastor Dean Ross. Our ministry and mission have been shaped by the influence of the work of this great church. Williams Blvd. Baptist Church officially sponsored Restoration Church as a church plant in 2013 and a relationship between the leadership of our churches continues to this very day. The DNA of the two churches is strikingly similar.
What happens to the members of Restoration Church?
Restoration Church will officially become a mission church of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church. Currently, we are a completely autonomous church. However, with this move our members will also become members of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church upon the affirmation of their membership. In essence, both churches will share the same membership during this season. Your current membership status with Restoration Church will remain.
What will happen to Restoration Church's current property?
Restoration Church was gifted its current property by unanimous affirmation of the remaining membership of Lakeside Baptist Church shortly after our launch. Our church owns and operates this property without any indebtedness. Restoration Church honors and continues the vision that initially started a congregation in the rapidly growing suburb of Metairie in 1958. Importantly, we realize the church is a people and not a building. Restoration Church plans to permanently relocate upon being replanted in 2019 and beyond. The tentative plan for our current property is for it to be leased by another church that can better utilize the facility with an option to purchase after a year. An executive oversight board approved by the members of both Restoration Church and Williams Blvd. Baptist Church will oversee the assets from the property. This executive board will feature the pastors of both churches and outside representation. This board will be tasked with steering the vision and assets of Restoration Church prior to its replanting in another location in the near future.
How do I connect or stay connected with Restoration Church?
Restoration Church will be fully integrated for now on Sunday as members of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church. We will also be invited to take part in the same events alongside one another as we are able to participate. This season is an exciting time for us to be walking hand-in-hand with the Williams Blvd. Baptist Church family as the Lord is shaping something special with a renewed mission and vision for the church. Restoration Church will gather initially in the home of Pastor Dean Ross in Metairie mid-week before launching a public mid-week gathering at a neutral location sometime this Fall 2018.
Who will be our leaders?
Pastor Dean Ross will continue to serve the Restoration Church family as its replant pastor under the leadership and guidance of Pastor Tim Williams of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church. The senior leadership of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church will be our leadership. Pastor Dean Ross will serve on pastoral staff alongside lead Pastor Tim Williams, Pastor Jamie Elliott, and the staff of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church. Pastor Brett Weller of Restoration Church will remain committed to serving Restoration Church alongside Pastor Dean Ross in addition to working with Pastor Jamie Elliott in the worship and missions ministries of Williams Blvd. Baptist Church.
Can I still make financial gifts to Restoration Church?
Once the Williams Blvd. Baptist Church family has adopted Restoration Church as an official mission church, we will share resources together and officially be overseen by the appointed administrative committee of Restoration Church. We encourage our members to engage in the giving of their time, talent, and treasure on all levels while with Williams Blvd. Baptist Church. If you would like to continue to designate your gifts to the replanting of Restoration Church in 2019 and beyond there are two means of making such a gift: Give through Williams Blvd. Baptist Church with the gift designated to "Restoration Church Metairie" (more details at http://www.williamsblvd.org/giving) or make a donation to Restoration Church here online at http://www.restorationgathering.com/give
What happens to The Restoration Collective?
Absolutely nothing. The Restoration Collective is a collection of individuals and organizations committed to pursuing the restoration of our city and world by assisting churches, proclaiming Jesus, and mobilizing people. For now The Restoration Collective will continue to serve as the parachurch ministry and missions function of Restoration Church. There are future plans for it to be established as a separate 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The Restoration Collective is built upon the legacy of Abandon Productions, which pioneered concerts, events, and movements across New Orleans and the Gulf South in years past. This work originates from Pastor Dean Ross' calling and work as a teenager at Williams Blvd. Baptist Church.
How can I pray for Restoration Church?
Pray for the passion, resources, and vision of Restoration Church. Pray for Metairie and all of New Orleans. Pray for the nations who have yet to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. Pray for Williams Blvd. Baptist Church and the entire Kenner community. Pray for this season of vision, prayer, and preparation. Pray for us to be empowered by the Holy Spirit for the work ahead.
What's next?
Restoration Church will remain gathering regularly on Sundays 10:30AM at 2929 Metairie Court, Metairie, LA, 70002 through the month of August 2018. Sunday, August 26, 2018 will be our final gathering in our current location. That evening (Sunday, August 26, 2018 6:30PM) Restoration Church invites you to "A Night Of Restoration" held at The Boulevard Room (Williams Blvd. Baptist Church) at 3000 Williams Blvd., Kenner, LA, 70065. Restoration Church will gather Labor Day Weekend on Sunday, September 2, 2018 10:30AM at the home of Pastor Dean Ross in Metairie, LA, for a time of devotion and fellowship followed by a community cookout. Our first official gathering with Williams Blvd. Baptist Church will on Sunday, September 9, 2018 10:45AM at 3000 Williams Blvd., Kenner, LA 70065.
Restoration Church will officially launch a mid-week gathering at a neutral location in the Metairie area beginning this Fall 2018. In the meantime our core group will meet mid-week in the home of Pastor Dean Ross for a focused time of reading, praying, and sharing together with one another and with our community preparing for what's next.

I am the prodigal son. Or daughter, I guess. For those of you who don't know the story, it's a parable in the Bible, found in Luke 15. Here's a quick synopsis:
A man had two sons. The younger asked his dad if he could have his inheritance now rather than later (the older son would get the land/home, the younger would inherit just a small amount of money compared to the older—that was Jewish tradition at the time). The father said okay, and the younger son basically ran off and squandered all his money on partying and prostitutes (see, the Bible has some serious DRAMA, huh?!). He was gone a long time, and after a while his father thought he must be dead.
After the son had "wasted his substance with riotous living," the place he lived (which I envision as the modern-day Vegas) was hit with famine, and he began to starve. He was basically homeless and hungry and sleeping with the pigs. Then one day it hit him that he could return home and, though he could no longer be a family member because he had disgraced his family, he could perhaps become a hired hand so he could eat.
He returned home, and Luke 15:20 tells us that "when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck and kissed him." Although the son told his father how he had squandered everything and sinned against heaven and was no longer worthy, the father loved his son, forgave him, and welcomed him back home into the family with open arms. He threw a big party to celebrate, and the rest was history.
The older son was a bit jealous, since he'd been faithful and "worthy," staying home to take care of pops and the farm and all (again... this is a brief summary and extremely paraphrased).
I, too, had a time in my life when I strayed from my heavenly Father. I didn't go to Vegas or blow money on strippers or anything like that, but through my teenage years and early adulthood, I was an angry, resentful, hurt girl who felt like her life had been ripped from her, and I was angry with God. I was so angry, in fact, that I willfully and purposely lived in direct opposition to scripture. I'll spare you the details, but I was astray. I was saved; I'd given my life to Him at a young age. I was born again. But—I. Was. MAD. I went on living life angry and rebellious until I was about 22 years old, and had traces of it left in my system for about another 2-3 years after that. (And let's face it: we all will have it in our systems until we get to the other side of eternity.)
Yet, God never forsook me. He didn't turn from me; He didn't even admonish me. When I hit a wall and decided to surrender and finally come home (to Him), He had compassion for me. He loved me through it, and when I came back, I believe He rejoiced just as the father in this parable that He authored.
This is a story of grace, but grace was not extended ONLY to the prodigal son—because grace is for everyone who will accept it. The other part of the story involves the older brother who basically threw a fit that "it's not fair!" because he had stayed home and been responsible while the younger brother was out partying it up and trashing his body and the family name. He was mad that Dad had never thrown a party for him.
Rather than chastising the son for being jealous, saying he's being silly, or telling him not to be so selfish, the father said, "Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine." Then he continued, "It was meet that we should make merry and be glad; for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found." You see, the father could have furrowed his brow at the older son and told him to cool it, but instead he offered words of affirmation and assurance: Thou art ever with me. All that I have is thine.
And this is the lesson for me as a parent, as well. I've said so many times that I wish there was a handbook for parenting. Here it is, folks. This is the handbook. GRACE for your children. GRACE for my children. My babies. There are times when discipline and admonition are practical and necessary—for instruction. But I've often struggled as a parent, even with girls so young, to have an attitude of compassion and grace. At this stage it applies more to my older one since Sierra, just barely 1 year old, hasn't had a chance to "transgress" against anyone yet; but the time will surely come.
I want my relationship with my children to be a reflection of my relationship with my heavenly Father. If I want my children to know the Lord, I need to show them who He is. Not only is it important to have grace and compassion when my children have sinned, but also to have words of affirmation and assurance when they are insecure. So many times, just in the four short years since Sophia was born, I have missed the mark. I've scolded her when she's been jealous of my affection toward Sierra. I've been frustrated when I just barely got Sierra down for her nap, and out of desire for attention, Sophia made noise that woke her. Even when I tried not to let my irritation show, I have failed to have an attitude of grace.
I will never be able to love my children like God loves them, nor am I capable of the grace He has bestowed on me. But this parable offers a perfect instruction on and example of how to give my girls a glimpse of Jesus.
