A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved.
Kurt Vonnegut, Sirens of the Titan
I've been finding myself exploring the idea of faith a bit more these days. Faith in myself. Faith in others. Faith in the future. Faith in something abstract, something bigger than the totality of all of that.
It's the latter that I catch myself contemplating, generally on my commute home, when the train is swaying, and a lack of cell service leaves me with my music and my thoughts. There's something very comforting but quixotic in the simple and honest belief that things will be better, or that one's actions will eventually lead to something infinite, intimate and warm. That honest belief that you can release control of the greater picture to something or someone else and focus on the present, the moment, the real.

Are you ready with your juicer, but still fairly new to this whole juicing thing? Are you not sure how to choose the best fruits and vegetables for juicing?
What should you look for when selecting fruits and vegetables to juice?
Let's see if I can help you with a choice of my personal best fresh goodies, specifically tailored for folks who are still finding their feet in the juicing world...
Veggies like the leafy greens are not necessarily very water-rich, but they sport an extremely powerful nutrient profile. So, a little goes a long way. The best way to juice them, is to bunch them up and add them together with the harder ingredients such as carrots or apples.
Just wait until you taste the Digestive Shake juicing recipe further down! White cabbage has never tasted so good before! :-) As it has a water content of over 90%, cabbage actually produces a surprising quantity of juice.
Whether you prefer white cabbage, the red variety or savoy and chinese cabbage, you will be adding an astounding mix of phytonutrients to your diet. Cabbage is packed with antioxidants and is well-equipped to help you fight inflammation in your body.
If you struggle with digestive issues, adding cabbage juice can be a great help. It is also one of the best liver support foods. Cabbage is rich in a substance called SMM, also referred to as Vitamin U. This particular nutrient has been shown to help heal the lining of the digestive tract in general and peptic ulcers in particular. It is also of benefit to your liver.
Together with the above, the glucosinolates[1] in cabbage give your body the tools it needs to put up a defense against cancer.
Although strictly speaking a fruit, let's count it among my best vegetables for juicing. I use it almost every time we juice. It is rich in water (roughly 96%!) and can add lots of volume to your juices, without altering the taste of a juice significantly.
In spite of its high water content, it is rich in nutrients. It is one of the best ingredients to juice for your hair, skin and nails.
If you are struggling with water retention, juicing recipes with cucumber are gold. You can read more about the benefits of cucumber juice here.
As with beets, celery is a must-have for lowering high blood pressure and for restoring electrolyte balance after workouts. For 5 of the most important health benefits of celery juice, check out this article.
At roughly 95% water, celery is a good item to include in your recipes.
A single medium carrot can provide more than an astonishing 200% of your daily Vitamin A need! This is thanks to the high beta-carotene content of carrots, being converted to Vitamin A in your body.
Carrots act as a natural sweetener in your vegetable juices. Just keep in mind that they are higher in sugar. It is preferable to mix them with greens to lower your sugar intake.
As beets grow below ground, they are higher in sugar and therefore add some sweetness to juice recipes. I also love the delicious-looking reddish color they give to juices! If green juices don't appear appetizing to you, you can easily change the color by adding a chunk or two of beetroot.
Remember that beets are quite potent, so take it slowly if you are new to juicing. Start with a chunk or two (not whole beetroot), while allowing your system to get used to the juice. Don't drink beet juice on its own, but mix it with a variety of other fruits and veggies.
Beet greens are edible and can be juiced. However, the leaves are strongly flavored. If you are a beginner, I would suggest discarding them at first.
Beetroot juice probably is one of the best researched juices so far, as you can read in this article. It has been proven to be beneficial in a number of ways, from lowering blood pressure to revving up your endurance[2]. Beetroot would be one of the best vegetables to juice for energy.
Be sure to buy the darkest shades of spinach you can find, in order to ensure the highest nutrient intake from it. Baby spinach also is an excellent choice for both juice recipes and smoothies.
If your family doesn't enjoy eating brussels sprouts, try them in your juices. They don't alter the taste significantly and can therefore easily be added to almost any juice recipe. As one of the cruciferous veggies, brussels sprouts are great for weight loss.
This is one of the most nutrient-rich types of lettuce to use for juicing. It is a low-calorie choice and comes with a high water content. Romaine lettuce is loaded with beta-carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C, folic acid, potassium and manganese, among a variety of other nutrients.
The folic acid in romaine lettuce is excellent for preventing the build-up of damaging homocysteine in your blood vessels. Another plus is the package of antioxidants that help to keep your arteries clear by preventing the build-up of sticky cholesterol. This combo makes romaine lettuce a very cardio-friendly veggie to include in your juice recipes.
I love adding kiwifruit to almost any juice recipe. They may be small, but potent stuff can come in small packages!
Researchers are still scratching their heads about exactly why these fruits are so powerful in terms of health benefits[4]. Generally speaking supplementation with antioxidants haven't shown promising results. However, when adding only 1 single antioxidant-rich kiwi fruit per day, the results were impressive.
Whether this has to do with the specific antioxidant combo in kiwifruit, or some other active phytonutrient, remains a mystery at this time. But, there are clear indications in research studies are clear that kiwifruit can help to reduce the DNA damage that can lead to cancer. The fruit also seems to have a measurable beneficial effect on heart health.
Although golden kiwifruit have a different phytonutrient profile, both the green and gold varieties offer these unique health benefits. This fruit is one of the most concentrated sources of vitamin C.
I love the fact that pears are such an excellent source of pectin, one of the crucial soluble fibers. Luckily the soluble fiber is retained when juicing. It plays an important role in lowering bad cholesterol and regulating blood sugar.
Try not to peel pears. The skins are a good source of the antioxidant quercetin.
Don't miss my delicious Digestive Shake Juice Recipe a bit further down! A simple combination of pears and cabbage with an amazing taste!
An apple might seem like a very 'ordinary' fruit, but don't misjudge the nutritional power hidden in each juicy package! It is astonishing that such a common, readily available fruit comes with so many health benefits. And it has to do with far more than the fiber content.
I often use apples in my juice recipes. They are great for adding a touch of sweetness and flavor. Although a bit higher in sugar than most veggies, they are fairly low on the glycemic index (around 38). They are a good source of soluble fiber. Best of all, their polyphenols team up to help to prevent blood sugar spikes - excellent news in my book!
Get the full story in this article on the nutrient profile of apples and their health benefits.
All the different kinds of berries, but blueberries in particular, are extremely rich in a variety of antioxidants. Researchers have found that blueberries offer from cancer protection to brain protection! They can help to keep age-related brain diseases at bay and can give your memory and concentration powers a solid boost. Read more about the powerful antioxidant cocktail in blueberries here.
I love to use lemons when juicing. This fruits adds flavor to veggie juices and make green juices more palatable.
Try to peel lemons as thinly as possible, before juicing. If you leave more of the white pith on the fruit, you will markedly increase your intake of very unique nutrients. The pith of citrus fruits is extremely rich in a variety of phytonutrients, for example limonene, naringenin and limonin. These, plus the vitamin C content and the other nutrients in citrus, make them handy allies in keeping you healthy.
If you don't enjoy using lemons, you can use limes as a substitute. Limes may be a little less sour. In fact, you could even be lucky enough to get the sweet variety, if you prefer! Unfortunately the sweet version isn't widely available yet.
Watermelon contains around 92% water! Researchers have found that folks who increase their intake of water-rich fruits or veggies, find that they lose weight with greater ease and are better able to keep their calorie intake under control.
Watermelon is loaded with minerals and other nutrients that can help with water retention and can also boost metabolism. And, did you know that you can even juice them rind and all if your juicer can handle it?
The Best Vegetables To Juice For Weight Loss
Now, let's try two very simple, yet delicious fruit and vegetable juice recipes! Enjoy!
Digestive Shake Juice Recipe
Note: Both pear and cabbage are extremely soothing and healing for your whole digestive tract. This juice looks like milkshake! It is a delectable creamy, pale color and tastes surprisingly sweet. And cabbage is one of the best vegetables to juice for weight loss!

Tips on Caulking a Shower
Erica Lugbill, owner of Lugbill Designs, a residential interior design and remodelling firm in Chicago, gives us tips on caulking a shower.
First, decide what caulk is best for your project. For a small job, small tube applicator would work best because it is easy to use. You can also opt to use a caulking gun if you want to. In this project, she used a silicon-based caulk that is washable with water.
Pick an appropriate color depending on your project. Keep in mind that when caulking your tub or shower, choose a mold and mildew resistant caulk.
Before the application, make sure you clean the area and remove grout or old caulk using a putty knife. When everything's ready, cut a small opening on the tube applicator and run a thin line and run your finger onto the surface. After it dries, wipe out the excess and you're done.
Follow our blog and how-to videos for more inter design tips and tricks.

Holy. Moly. I have a lot to recap.
For starters, I wrote a post on Friday and forgot to publish it. There was nothing very significant about said post, but if it seems strange that I posted "Friday Thoughts" on Sunday, well, now you know.
So Friday was a big day. I met some former colleagues for lunch. I hadn't seen a couple of them in about 8 years so it was fun to catch up. Then, it was off to get my new car!! Very exciting!! We've always worked with a family friend to purchase our cars. As a side business, he helps people find cars for the best price and charges a small fee for his services. Totally worth it to have someone else do the searching and negotiating!! A had talked to the owner of the dealership prior so we had already agreed on the car model and had a tentative price. After we got there and it seemed like everything had been worked out, the price they offered the new car at was $1000 more than the price given to us over the phone. The dealer told us the car had upgrades. Maybe so, but mama didn't raise no fool! After some negotiation, they lowered the price by $500 and offered me $1000 more than I had been quoted for my trade in. I also argued the financing rate since A and I have excellent credit and got them to lower it by half a percentage point. Hey, every little bit counts! So at the end of the day (after 3 hours at the dealer), I felt like I got a great deal and I love my new Toyota Highlander. The best thing about it is the third row and captains chairs in the second row (which allows easy access to the third row). Also, the car reads me text messages and tells me the weather, which I didn't even know was a possibility?!?! W has been calling it my Toyota Calendar or Canada… hahaha.
Saturday morning, A installed the car seats in the new car and took the boys on a Starbucks run. J That afternoon, W went to swim lessons. He's doing awesome! So much better than soccer. I guess soccer just wasn't his thing. J While W was there, S and I headed to my family reunion. It was sooo hot and humid. Uggh. But we had fun and A and W eventually met up with us there. My second? cousin's (I have tons of cousins) son happened to be about 3 months older than S and kept coming up to him and bear hugging S. It was so cute. The boys got to play at a nearby park and we had some yummy food. I loved catching up with family I hadn't seen in a while. Oh! My dad was a huge Minnesota Vikings fan. I have no idea why he chose that team to love, but he did. Anyway, when my brother was little, my dad got him a Vikings football uniform and helmet. When my brother grew out of it, he passed it on to another cousin. Well, Saturday, my cousin gave me the Vikings helmet back for my boys. It's a bit beat up, but I love having that reminder of my dad. J We finished the day with an ice cream outing. Once again the boys had about 2 bites and were finished. A and I decided that future ice cream trips will not include the boys. :P
Saturday night/Sunday morning, S was up for nearly 3 hours and ended up spitting up all over A, his blankets, and his rug. It doesn't get much better than cleaning up puke at 2am. I have no idea what's going on. He had been sleeping well and seemed to be feeling fine. Despite being so tired, we still kept our usual church, Starbucks, and grocery shopping routine. The boys spent the afternoon playing in their kiddie pool. I finally got around to trying on my Stitch Fix items – more on that in an upcoming post. Basically, the boys were in full on meltdown mode while I was trying on clothes so that was fun. I gave A a few new recipe options. He chose spinach artichoke pasta so I made that for dinner and it turned out pretty good – except I haven't mastered cooking for two adults so I ended up making enough pasta for a small army. Oh well. Definitely a great weekend!
Annnd for some reason, S was up last night for 2ish hours. We even tried a bit of Motrin before bed, thinking his teeth could be bothering him. Not sure what's going on, but lots of caffeine in store for today!

Coronation Street star Chris Fountain has praised the decision to finally unite his character Tommy Duckworth and Rovers barmaid Tina McIntyre.
The pair get together at last this week as Tina steps in to support Tommy when his grandfather Geoff passes away.
Fountain told Hot TV of the storyline: "Viewers will see that Tina really does care for Tommy. She sits him down and takes control of the situation.
"It really means a lot to Tommy and she goes to see his family with him in Blackpool, which is a big thing for him, and she is lovely to everyone. He respects that she has gone out of her way to help him like that."
He continued: "With his granddad dying, you see a different side to Tommy that I hadn't seen until now. It brings Tina and Tommy closer together and they have quite a lot of time to themselves, having conversations and not game playing.
"They are genuinely talking and I think that's what they need. I think it is a very good dynamic. We have a great rapport on set. We have spent a lot of time working together when Tommy and Tina were living at Tyrone's house, so it has built nicely on and off screen."
Tommy also has another big storyline on the way as his bad boy father Terry (Nigel Pivaro) will be returning to Weatherfield later this month.

Fun with mod_rewrite (and its special variables REQUEST_URI, IS_SUBREQ and THE_REQUEST)
I wasted a few hours of my life, over the weekend, playing with mod_rewrite. I had, what I thought to be, a fairly simple problem to solve: I wanted requests for index.html within any subdirectory of my site to be redirected to the root of that subdirectory. So, a request for example.com/subdir/index.html would be (301) redirected to example.com/subdir/.
I thought I could do this without using RewriteCond. I tried something like this.
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.html$ $1 [R=301]
I would expect this to match requests for URLs that end with index.html and redirect them to the URL minus index.html. Although this correctly redirected /subdir/index.html to /subdir/ it would also attempt to redirect /subdir/ to /subdir/ resulting in an infinite loop. It took me a very long time to work out, what I believe, is going on. If I understand correctly, apache will send every request (i.e. not just the request you issue from the browser) through mod_rewrite. When we request /subdir/, apache will try, and fail, to match that URL with our regex (/subdir/ doesn't end with index.html). Internally, apache then 'requests' index.html (since index.html is the DirectoryIndex). This request matches our regex which results in apache sending the 301 redirect and us ending up with an infinite loop. If I mis-understand what's going on please feel free to correct me.
Based on this assumption, I figured I'd need to use RewriteCond to somehow ignore the internal request for index.html. I initially added a condition that checked for the REQUEST_URI ending in index.html (
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} index\.html$). This suffered the same problem as my initial attempt. A little more reading led me to the IS_SUBREQ special variable. I thought this might allow me to ignore the 'internal request' for index.html (
RewriteCond %{IS_SUBREQ} false) but I couldn't get it to have any effect.
In searching for answers to this problem I kept seeing THE_REQUEST special variable used in the solution, although never an explanation as to why it's used (specifically in preference to REQUEST_URI). I ended up using THE_REQUEST in my solution (not technically my solution as I stole it from a site that I failed to bookmark) and it seems to work OK.
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /.*index\.html\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)index\.html$ $1 [R=301,L]
I'm guessing that this is because THE_REQUEST contains the full details (the stuff that appears in the log file) of the request from the client (browser) and will therefore be empty for any 'internal requests'. Anyone know if my assumptions are correct?

After an uncertain few months last year, Morocco has seen a healthy growth in tourist numbers. According to the Tourism Observatory a total of 3.8 million tourists visited Morocco between January and May 2017, up 9% from the same period a year earlier, according to the Tourism Observatory
The number of foreign tourists grew by 12.3%, while arrivals of Moroccans resident abroad increased by 3.4%.
The increase was particularly strong from Germany (+ 9%), Spain (+ 8%) and Belgium (+ 7%), the Observatory said.
In more good news, it appears that the emerging tourism markets for Moroccohave maintained their upward trend, with China growing by 760%, while Japan, South Korea, the United States and Brazil posted increases of 45 %, 42%, 34% and 35%.
The total number of nights spent in classified tourist accommodation increased by 17% during the first 5 months of 2017 (+ 22% for non-resident tourists and + 6% for residents).
Marrakech and Agadir alone accounted for 60% of total overnight stays at the end of May, says the Observatory, which notes that these two cities increased by 19% and 16%, respectively.
Other destinations also performed well, particularly in the cities of Fez and Tangier, with increases of 38% and 31% respectively.
Revenues from non-resident tourism in Morocco amounted to MAD 22.86 billion at the end of May, compared with MAD 22.7 billion a year earlier, an increase of 0.7 %.
The entry of Moroccans resident abroad has increased in comparison with the year 2016, both on the sea and air routes.
Launched on June 5 to welcome Moroccans living abroad (MRE), Operation Marhaba 2017 will continue until September 15. A total of 17 reception areas have been set up under the direction of the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity.
No fewer than 709,620 nationals have returned to the national territory, according to statistics from the Central Coordination Office of the Foundation. This represents an increase of 7.09% compared to 2016 until 10 July. Indeed, 51% of the MREs (362,951 persons) have returned via air, while 49% have returned to the territory by sea.
|Thousands of Moroccans return home for the holidays
A total of 178,233 people transited through the port of Tangier Med, representing 51.4% of the MREs that opted for this route. It is followed by the port of Nador, where 56,666 people transited (16.4%), recording an increase compared to last year (34,058 people on the same date). Bab Sebta (43,420 people - 12.5%), Bab Melilla (35,039 - 10.1%) and the port of Tangiers (29,118 - 8.4%) are the most important.
In terms of air transport, Casablanca airport received the largest number of MREs, numbering 113,931, with 31.6% of the total number of people returning by air. It is followed by the airport of Fez, which welcomed 42,917 people until July 10, or 11.8% of the total.
The first two airports are followed by Tangiers (42,267 - 11.7%), Marrakech (42,124 - 11.6%) and Nador (38,819 - 10.6%) respectively. In addition, Nador airport registered 35,298 people in 2016, an increase of 9.97% as of July 10, 2017.
At the entry points, the foundation teams in charge of hosting the MRE offered social and medical assistance.
The entry of Moroccans residing abroad is expected to peak between July 15 and August 2.

Out of Africa
Eye Bach Choir
Africa, in all its colour, moods and troubles, was the theme of this
bubbly concert.
Eye Bach Choir, directed by Leslie Olive, had got together with the
Call Me Al Jazz Quintet and local schools.
That mighty continent has seen more than its share of strife,
reflected in spirituals like Nobody Knows the Trouble I See.
Hopes for the after-life, and stealing away to Jesus, made slave
existence bearable.
These numbers, from Tippett's A Child of Our Time, were performed by
the choir with a feeling for that tender melancholy of African music.
Alexander L'Estrange had composed Zimbe! and played those songs of
Africa with his jazz band.
They pick up on his enthusiasm and play with a seductive sound that
can be both languorous and effervescent.
If some of the early items recalled troubled times, the second half
was notable for joie de vivre. This was Africa as a colourful, vibrant,
happy land.
The contribution of the children was a credit to Hartismere School and
Eye and Mellis Primary Schools.

|Queen Maxima of the Netherlands is currently in Argentina to attend the G20 summit held between the dates of November 29, Thursday and December 1 in Buenos Aires. On November 29, Thursday, Queen Maxima and President Macri hosted the G20 side event 'The Role of Finance for Women's Economic Empowerment'. In the margins of the G20 programme, Queen Máxima will also hold a number of bilateral meetings with government representatives of countries that are actively working to improve access to financial services and inclusive finance. (On the first day of the G20 Summit, Queen Maxima wore a colour-block wool midi dress by Michael Kors.)

Mmm... her hair is different, not so messy. That's nice. I'm not really a fan of the skirt, can't help to think it makes her look a bit bulky... But when she sits, it's nice.ReplyDelete
I don't like this dress at all. Only a very slim person would look OK in it, but for Maxima it is is wrong. Like other people who are constantly photographed, she should always think how her clothes will look when pictured, not only how they look in life.ReplyDelete

Strahlende Maxima.ReplyDelete
Sie sieht so frisch aus auf den Fotos. Ist das retuschiert oder hat sie einen helleren Blondton...Lifting? Vielleicht auch einfach nur Glückseligkeit.
Ihr Kleid gefällt mir richtig gut.
Der Mann auf Bild Nr. 6 (rechts im Bild) kommt mir bekannt vor. Stand er nicht neulich bei der Konferenz in Wien neben Victoria?
She has changed her makeup from that harsh, aging overdone blush and she looks much better and younger. Her hair looks a little thicker and a bit less messy, although it still looks better in an updo. Dress is not the best but still OK.ReplyDelete
Nice, fresh and different design. It has a slight 70s retro touch, but still feels modern. Also, it is a good choice for early summer in Argentina.ReplyDelete
Still, a few points of criticism:
This outfit, while nice, is neither queenly nor particularly well suited for a high-profil international conference. Too casual for the occasion.
I agree with Marina above that the silhouette isn´t ideal for Maxima, and to be more specific, I´d say that the skirt is a bit too wide at the bottom; I wish the slit in the middle both started a bit further down and didn´t open quite as much. Also, just a few cm less length for the hem had been better.
The shoes are horrid.
Lastly, I find funny to see how her belt buckle travels all over the place in the course of the day. Happens to the best of us :-)

Without any offence intended, kudos to the queen for looking ahead and not at Trudeau in the last pic. Not so,etching many are capable of.ReplyDeleteReplies

no one looks at Trudeau lately - don't worry (or at least not in Canada - since it became so clear that he's just an average liar like any politician). I am sure Maxima cares very little about him too.Delete
Please let's keep politics out of this blog. One reason I check in is to escape from the constant agitation.Delete

I am certainly not a Trudeau fan, but this is a royal fashion website, not a political one. Plenty of those out there for you to give your opinion.Delete
She looks lovely - her hair isn't perfect but it's much better than on some occasions. I like the dress and the bold colour on the skirt part.ReplyDelete
I like Maxima's dress. I'm glad to see her branching out with her designers. Michael Kors is a more modern look, and certainly less bizarre, than some of her Natan designs. I like seeing this more updated look on her. The shoes are not right with the dress, but a solid improvement. I appreciate seeing royals appearing more approachable.ReplyDelete

Nice to see Maxima attending the G20 Meetings. She fits right in with all the Heads of States. Plus it is in her Homeland.ReplyDelete
I have decided that Maxima has very little of her own hair. I think those are the days we see it looking bad. I think she has to have the extensions for body and lift. Not sure if this is the result of coloring and flat ironing etc. But I would assume that she could have the most luxurious head of hair if she could. She has the money and stylist. I think she may get tired of having extensions in all the time. She can go from full head of hair to looking like super thin stringy hair in one day.ReplyDelete
So .... just my thoughts
She looks great here!!Replies
- RosalynDecember 1, 2018 at 7:45 PM
Yes she often uses extensions. I also think that all the styling, colouring and ironing are bad for everyone's hair. So perhaps she indeed does have thin and very little hair of her own, that's how it looks like. But always using extension can be annoying either, like you said.Delete
Being a queen and always have to look flawless is a hard job!
Imagine how awful it must be to have to be "perfect" all the time? Right now I am in yoga pants and tshirt with my hair in a 'messy bun" ... no make up and I went to the grocery store, the cleaners, and the public market like this today. I did bath LOLDelete
No one gives me a glance. But if I was a Queen I could never just be.... comfy..
- RosalynDecember 4, 2018 at 8:01 PM
Yeah I totally agree. They look at every move, they seize every word, they criticize every look... and if you make a mistake, it's not easily forgiven! Glad you got this as well! I also often like your comments, you make good points in what you say and have humour as well :-)Delete
How lovely to see Queen Maxima back on home territory, working on something she was trained to do and able to use her position as Queen to raise the profile of the things she's interested in. She is one highly intelligent lady and it's great to see her here with other world leaders. Like some of the comments above her hair seems less straggly in these photos. Has it been cut? I think I could have lived with the dress if it were't for that strange curving hem. Looks better when she's sitting as someone else said.ReplyDelete

How to Email Someone You Haven't Talked to in Forever
The value of an original document
A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is assigned to helping the other monks in copying the old canons and laws of the church, by hand.
He notices, however, that all of the monks are copying from copies, not from the original manuscript.
So, the new monk goes to the Old Abbot to question this, pointing out that if someone made even a small error in the first copy, it would never be picked up!
In fact, that error would be continued in all of the subsequent copies.
The head monk, says, "We have been copying from the copies for centuries, but you make a good point, my son."
He goes down into the dark caves underneath the monastery where the original manuscripts are held as archives, in a locked vault that hasn't been opened for hundreds of years.
Hours go by and nobody sees the Old Abbot.
So, the young monk gets worried and goes down to look for him.
He sees him banging his head against the wall and wailing.
"We missed the R !!!
We missed the R !!!
We missed the bloody R !!!"
His forehead is all bloody and bruised and he is crying uncontrollably.
The young monk asks the old Abbot, "What's wrong, father?"
With a choking voice, the old Abbot replies, "The word was …
Note On Fridge Door
My Dear Wife,
You will surely understand that I have certain needs that you, being 54 years old, can no longer satisfy.
I am very happy with you and I value you as a good wife. Therefore, after reading this letter, I hope that you will not be upset that I will be spending the evening at the Comfort Inn Hotel with Chantelle, my 18 year old secretary.
Please don't be upset. I shall be home before midnight.
When the man came home late that night, he found the following letter on the dining room table:
My Dear Husband,
I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about my being 54 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are also 54 years old.
As you know, I am a mathematics teacher. I would like to inform you that while you read this, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is also the assistant rugby coach. He is young, virile, and (like your secretary) 18 years old.
As a successful businessman with a mathematical brain, you will understand that we are in the same situation, but with one small difference: 18 goes into 54 a lot more times than 54 goes into 18.
Therefore, I will not be home until sometime tomorrow !!!

The DRUM . . . Sacred Object, Community Gathering, Musical Instrument, Therapeutic Tool, and Used for Healing
by Joanne Crofford
People using drums in intercultural, teaching, recreational, and healing environments were interviewed. Their names are listed below. Quotations are not individually attributed.
RESEARCH . . . Science is merging with the developmental and healing qualities of the hand drum. Hand drums, around for thousands of years in celebrations, rituals, and ceremonies, have more recently become the object of research. Studies demonstrate the calming, focusing, and healing effects on Alzheimer's patients, autistic children, combat veterans, emotionally disturbed teens, recovering addicts, trauma patients, and prison and homeless populations. They are effective in treatment of stress, fatigue, anxiety, addiction, hypertension, asthma, chronic pain, arthritis, heart disease, mental illness, cancer, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, stroke, emotional disorders, and isolation. —Michael Drake ©2010

Elixirs, Herbal Teas, and More! – Drinks for Health
by Stacey Tress
I love how an article idea "finds me." I'd been dabbling with a few ideas for this Sept/Oct'17 article when the signs to go in another direction just kept adding up. My sister-in-law had posted a few most inspiring and beautiful local foraged herbal/flower teas back in July on Instagram (I'll post some links at the bottom) – I've used one of her lovely photos in this article. These pics of hers were the base inspiration for this article. I love that you can go out into your garden, or wherever, and forage ingredients for a healing drink/tea. Her teas were made using live plant material but of course you can dehydrate the plant material and enjoy them all winter long, too. A few more signs fell into my lap like when I was unpacking books I came across Ann Wigmore's book Recipes for Longer Life (as we are still unpacking and sorting from our move from Yorkton to our new home in Rhein, SK); shortly after that my husband came home with some books from the library and he left one for me on the kitchen table called Healing Tonics, Juices and Smoothies by Jessica Jean Weston…..at the time I laughed and said, 'Yeah, thanks…cause I've got so much time to read right now (not)."
The Hurley/Osborn Technique: Bringing the Body Back to Balance
by Tricia Gutek
Anyone who is experiencing persistent physical pain and discomfort knows that understanding the pain is as important as relieving it. Having physical pain not only affects your body but also your quality of life. The method for feeling optimal should not be forced but rather facilitate the body's natural healing ability. The Hurley/Osborn technique combines bio-mechanics and muscle testing that is centred around bringing the body back to its natural state of balance, allowing it to facilitate its own healing mechanisms.
De-Stress: Tips for Your Busy Life
by Kathleen Brown
Are you feeling stressed? Do you look forward to going to work to get a break from chauffeuring kids to and from activities? At the end of the work day, do you scramble to finish deadlines and rush out the door to pick up kids? Do you rush to work and after school activities, leaving no time for a nutritious meal, just a grab-and-go meal from the local burger joint? Is there just not enough time to do the laundry, house cleaning, spending quality time with your kids or your partner?
Die Wise, A Manifesto for Sanity and Soul
A Talk with Stephen Jenkinson
by Patti Lindgren Gera
"If you love somebody, if you care about the world that is to come after you, and if you want somebody to be spared the lunacy of what you've seen – then you've got to die wise." —Stephen Jenkinson
Hello Saskatchewan, and in particular, those of you living driving distance from Saskatoon and onto the scent of better ways for health, leadership, culture, and community. We, in the co-founding of the Saskatoon Community Healing Initiative (CHI), are excited to announce our first offering of day-long soul-based village training experience with a visiting teacher. The Community Healing Initiative (CHI) is a conversation for waking up to what is going on in the world and responding as if the fate of all beings and Creation itself is in the care of the village.
Facing the Elephant in the Room: Planning for the End of Life
by Karla Combres
Death. Most people in Western cultures avoid the subject and are not comfortable talking about it in polite company. And yet, birth and death are the only guarantees in this life. While we have little input into our birth, we can anticipate death and, to some degree, help to influence our last living days and the way that we are remembered by our loved ones.
Actively Grieving
by Joan Tessier
People and pets die all the time. I know that. I grew up on a farm where our cats and dogs, even horses, died and others took their place many times over. In my younger years I accompanied my parents to many funerals. When it's your own parents and a special dog all at once, though, it really hits hard! At least, that's what I discovered in 2001. Our son's gorgeous golden greyhound was hit by a vehicle and had to be put down. That was in January.
by Melva Armstrong
September…one of my favourite months. No more ticks, no mosquitos, and those stunningly gorgeous autumn leaves have arrived. It is fun to hear the crunch of them under my feet and listen to them rustling in the trees. There's a pleasure in the coolness of the air as it brushes my cheeks. I love my walks and especially so during the fall season. I found the spring and summer delightful and loved being outdoors and soaking up the glorious sunshine. The warmth of the sun feels like it is healing and nurturing my body, soul, and spirit. In my mind, Mother Nature is the ultimate healer, therefore I enjoy getting out in her as much as possible.

Use the right keywords, and have as many links as possible on other peoples websites pointing back to you. That's still true, but now it also makes a huge difference how you write your sentences, whether you use "active" or "passive" voice, transition words used, repetition, captions, sentence length and the list goes on… Then after all that you need to think about how your site looks on a mobile phone compared to a pc screen. It's all part of SEO. According to Moz, the first page of Google captures 71% of search traffic clicks and has been reported to be as high as 92% in recent years. Second-page results are far from a close second coming in at below 6% of all website clicks. So it's really important to be on that first page. Masterlink SEO optimises your website not only for Google, but also Bing and other search engines. Our service has two options, you can get your site optimised and from there hope you stay high in the rankings. Or you can subscribe to our ongoing service, which refines our search parameters every month. Note: (1) Masterlink needs full access to your website's "back end". (2) No gaurantee of position ranking is given (3) It may take several weeks for results to be fully realised, while your site is discovered by search bots.

If you were given a chance to add a new denomination(one that's not in use today, but was perhaps used in past) to Indian currency, what would it be? And why?
Well, that's the question that got everyone thinking , at the HackerEarth meetup on competitive programming with Anudeep Nekkanti.
We had invited Anudeep Nekkanti, an amazing competitive programmer from India, to a competitive programming meetup at HackerEarth. Anudeep was selected for the 2014 ACM ICPC World Finals in Ekaterinburg. Having bested a whopping 25000 teams at the National-level and State-level of Infosys Aspirations 2020 programming contests held in 2012. Anudeep could well be among the most talented programmers today.
He was happy enough to give us some insights into the world of competitive programming and what it takes to make it to the top. He talked about his experience at the prestigious programming competition in Russia. And he definitely made the meetup a gem of a session by speaking about SQRT decomposition in some detail and how it could be used to tackle problems at various levels.
What in god's name is SQRT decomposition? ?
We all know how powerful the base 2 numbers are; they form the numeric system and that's how we represent the numbers in computer systems too. See how versatile these numbers are, that we can form any decimal by using each of these powers just once.
The concept of doubling gives rise to log factor, multiples of 2's, and to know that they are used in various concepts of programming like segment trees, binary search, square root decomposition etc and still we do not really realise it. Square root decomposition is not as obvious as it should be.
Here are some excerpts from the meetup –
Talking about how to reach the top, Anudeep tells us, intelligence or ability to learn quickly, hard work and being persistence are the important skills to have. Well, of course, luck is one of them. It is all about striking the right balance. Competitive Programming is about learning new things and not giving up in frustrating times and staying in that uncomfortable zone. Well, what's the point of walking every day when you are practicing running, right? That's just how it is with competitive programming too. You need to try for the next level. If u have solved X number of problems, make sure to solve X + 1 as well.
In Competitive Programming, it's better to break the problem into smaller problems, solve them in order, and think about the efficiency. This helps in better planning.It's crucial to know when to go for help. Did you know that you can relate the Algorithm's logic to real-world scenarios? see if you can get an analogy of that in the real world.
Without knowing it, people use most of the sorting techniques in their everyday lives, without realising, for example, to find a word in the dictionary, almost everyone will go for a binary search as the dictionary is already sorted.Even the shopkeeper arranges his daily earnings by segregating the notes into heaps of 10s, 50s, 100s, 500s and so on, and then merges them, and they are sorted. That's nothing but bucket sort. The clock too works on Modulo operations.
To solve a problem, it is important to understand the proof of the algorithm and the math behind it. There is math in everything and it's crucial to know it, not that you need to be an expert in it. What is also imperative is that you understand the logic of algorithms.
Anudeep explained square root decomposition in detail. Check out this video where ace programmer Anudeep tells you all you need to know about square root decomposition.

- Way Up North in Louisville: African American Migration in the Urban South, 1930-1970 by Luther Adams
This book examines African American movement within the South during the Second Great Migration. It covers a significant amount of historical ground: migration, civil rights, southern identity, busing, urban renewal, and open-housing demonstrations. The volume highlights the organizations, personalities, issues, and events which shaped the city of Louisville during the modern civil rights era. In doing so, Adams's work fits nicely with George C. Wright's study, Life Behind a Veil: Blacks in Louisville, Kentucky, 1865-1930 (1985).
Adams offers a compelling narrative on the circumstances which brought southern African Americans to Louisville and the reasons they chose to make the city their home. He notes its proximity to the North, the growing number of defense-industry plants during World War II, and the fact that Kentucky African Americans could vote in political elections. Black migrants to Louisville found that the city connected them to the South. It was part of their southern identity which was built around family, culture, and place. Instead of leaving the South because it was a region known for segregation, discrimination, and racial violence, migrants chose to work and live in the South. They came to Louisville determined to fight for racial equality. From their perspective, Louisville was the South; Louisville was home.
One of the migrants who came to Louisville was Lyman T. Johnson who migrated from Columbia, Tennessee, in 1930. Johnson was a schoolteacher and a civil rights activist. He divided Kentucky "into two parts, Louisville and the rest of the state. Louisville is oriented to [End Page 591] the North, culturally and commercially. The rest of Kentucky looks to the South" (p. 39). On the surface, Louisville appeared to be more progressive and racially tolerant. Public transportation was not legally segregated; African Americans served on the police force, and school desegregation underwent a peaceful transition in the 1950s. Segregation in housing and public accommodations existed in the city, but interracial coalitions which included the Urban League, YWCA, YMCA, and the Louisville Council of Churches, among others, sought to erase these forms of discrimination.
Yet, as Adams's book deftly notes, white Louisvillians were not willing to surrender power and authority to a rising African American population easily. As the civil rights movement gained momentum on the national front, African Americans in Louisville engaged in various strategies to expand their rights. There were demonstrations at Taylor's Drugstore, Ben Snyder's Department Store, and Stewart's Department Store. The participation of African American high school students was critical to the local movement. In February 1961, a "Nothing New for Easter" boycott placed even greater pressure on downtown businesses to treat African Americans equal to whites. At the forefront of the demonstrations were members of the NAACP and the Congress of Racial Equality. Following three years of demonstrations, the city passed the first public-accommodations ordinance in the state in May 1963.
While Adams's book does a nice job exposing the differences between civil rights leaders and the strategies they employed to end segregation, his most interesting discussion revolves around the commitment of black migrants to eradicating discrimination in the city. African American migrants augmented the civil rights leadership in the city. They came to the city ready to build upon networks, work with coalitions and civil rights groups, and exercise black political power to push for racial change.
Because whites controlled the process and timing of urban renewal, Africans Americans found themselves facing a never-ending challenge. The historic black business district on Walnut Street was [End Page 592] abolished. The fight for open housing and school desegregation in Louisville revealed quite explicitly the level of resistance whites would exercise to prevent attempts to further desegregate the city. And, while an open-housing ordinance and state law was passed, these measures did not alter the urban landscape to the degree blacks had hoped for...

Marina & The Diamonds – Electra Heart
If you were to put music on a map, the city of Pop would be located in the north. The mayor of this city is Teenage Dream (by Katy Perry). To the south of Pop is ElectroPop with some suburban sprawl by Robyn's Body Talk and Lady GaGa's Born This Way. To the southwest toward Rock county, Metric. In the middle of Pop and ElectroPop, Marina and the Diamonds.
While the radio waves are ruled by pop acts like Katy and Rihanna on one end, with the heavier dance and electro-influenced sounds of producer-based music by the likes of David Guetta, the heart of the electropop movement isn't represented as much just yet. The sassy pop with heavy beats and tons of personality, sometimes with guitars but always synths lead by groups like Dragonette, La Roux, Little Boots and Marina & The Diamonds. Electra Heart is the second record by Marina Lambrini Diamandis.
The record follows in a similar progression as the first. While it's clear where Marina's sound originated from, there is a slight shift toward a more radio friendly sound. There are obvious comparisons to Katy Perry in her vocals, such as in the album's first single Primadonna, and those comparisons aren't unfounded. Though Marina's music is more adventurous, it does at times parallel what Katy might be doing if she were to put out new music right now. Lies and Starring Role, in particular, could have been on Teenage Dream despite tracks like Bubblegum Bitch being completely out of Katy's grasp. Europop takes control in the middle part of the record with the trio of songs The State Of Dreaming, Power & Control and Living Dead though things come back to this side of the ocean with Valley Of The Dolls, featuring a beat that sounds oddly like Timbaland's production of Say It Right by Nelly Furtado.
Marina's sound could become the centre of pop music in the coming years as the current trends move away from the upbeat sounds of high energy dance pop. However, there isn't a whole lot on Electro Heart that makes her stand apart from her peers who have had at least one song really make an impact. She's yet to have her own Hello or Bulletproof. On Electra Heart, many of the songs are competing with each other with no clear indication as to which one will receive that distinction. On an individual level, each of the songs are catchy, Bubblegum Bitch insanely so. But collectively, they blend together. As a record so neutral in amongst the pop landscape, perhaps being in the middle of so many other bigger genres isn't quite so exceptional afterall.
1. Bubblegum Bitch
2. Primadonna
3. Lies
4. Homewrecker
5. Starring Role
6. The State Of Dreaming
7. Power And Control
8. Living Dead
9. Teen Idle
10. Valley Of The Dolls
11. Hypocrates
12. Fear And Loathing

Air America was a 60 minute action series that aired in syndication about two government agents who worked undercover for the U.S. State Department. Their covers were as two pilots working for a Latin American airline called "Air America". Their duties included carrying out rescue missions, investigating criminal activities and other covert activities.
Air America CastLorenzo Lamas .................. Rio Arnett
Scott Plank .................... Wiley Ferrell
Diana Barton ................... Alison Stratton
Ismael Carlo ................... Secretary Morales
Gary Wood ...................... Edward Furman
Shauna Sand-Lamas .............. Dominique
Gilbert Montoya ................ Pablo
John Bennett Perry ............. Frank Arnett
Gary Hudson .................... Henry Stanley
Air America TriviaThere were four episodes of the Air America TV show that were produced but were not broadcast. Their titles were: "Betrayal", "Safe Passage", "The Cure", and "The Miracle".
Lorenzo Lamas is an international TV and movie star with an impressively long list of roles! His other best known TV series include "Falcon Crest", "Renegade", "The Immortal", and "The Bold and the Beautiful".
Lorenzo was born to highly successful show business parents. His father was "Fernando Lamas", one of MGM Studios headline actors during the 1940s through the 1960s and his mother was Arlene Dahl who never achieved the same level of success but nevertheless starred in numerous MGM films. Arlene also appeared as a guest star on Air America in episode #16, "Eye of the Storm" as her final role! A few years earlier she also appeared on two episodes of "Renegade".
While the titles are identical, this series has no connection to the 1990 movie starring Mel Gibson and Robert Downey Jr.
Rio and Wiley often found themselves in difficult and dangerous situations caused by their boss, Edward Furman who cared about little more than enriching himself.
The agents operated out of the ficticious community of Costa Perdida that was overwhelmed by drug kingpins and paramilitary organizations.
Shauna Sand who played Dominique on Air America was married to Lorenzo Lamas at the time. She also had guest-starred on five episodes of "Renegade".

Wesley completed his BS and MS in Agriculture from Southern Arkansas University after experiencing a spinal cord injury in high school. His newest mountain to conquer is employment. To be competitive, he needs some help. Wesley presently uses a mouth stick to type on an old computer. His injury makes it impossible for him to use his hands. We have already made it possible for Wes to exit and enter the house without assistance using an automatic door opener. He can also turn on and off the lights on his own, so he no longer has to wake his mom. This makes a big difference -- and thanks to everyone that donated to help make this a reality.
Given the challenges of finding a job when you can't move your hands, Wes decided to start a business tutoring high school and college students. Tom Jakobs and John Riggins helped Wes to write his business plan and Wes applied to Arkansas Vocational Rehabilitation Services for a grant to help start his business. We found out in February, 2013 that Wes received the grant! John continues to work with Sherry Howard at the Arkansas Women's Business Center in El Dorado as Wes gets his business started. InvoTek put together the technology needed for a great office (pictures below). We also helped Wes create a simple but professional web site with a content management system so that he can update the site himself. Progress! ;-)
In November, 2013 Wes called Tom and John and told us that his first student hired him! Since that first call, Wes has started working with several other students. In 2014 we created a video of Wes and friends talking about his business. It is fun to watch a person grow. You can see his videos by clicking on the video above and video below.
See Wes' other video on the power of community here. Wes also has written some great blogs published on our site. Enjoy!

The One Thing Stan Lee Could Never Convey In Ant-Man
The comic book legend visited the set of Ant-Man and revealed to Paul Rudd why this character had to be made into a movie
Paul Rudd — star of this past weekend's number one movie and the latest film in the Marvel Universe — visited the Stern Show Monday morning to discuss the success of "Ant-Man."
While he shed some light on the now-infamous original Edgar Wright script, maybe the most interesting revelation was a conversation Rudd had with the creator of Ant-Man himself, Stan Lee, when he visited the set.
First, to set the scene, you have to imagine what it's like to have the Marvel legend stop by. "[I]t's like the president … he's the guy," Paul thought in awe.
"And one of the things that was so cool, was talking to him about Ant-Man," Rudd remembered. "He said, 'You know, I always loved this character and I'm so happy that we're making a movie of it because when we made the comic, the one thing that I could never really convey – the artists, we never got on the same page about it — was it's so hard to convey just how small he is, because in a panel, you can't show everything else so huge around him.' And Ant-Man has to be a regular size in the panel. There's no way to show the proximity. And he said, 'You can do it in a movie.'"
So, there you have it from the source – Ant-Man has finally been realized in a medium that does the tiny hero full justice. Check out the movie in theaters now!
