Wet winter greatly reduces drought conditions in California
By JOHN ANTCZAK, Associated Press
LOS ANGELES (AP) — In a matter of weeks, a very wet winter has greatly reduced drought conditions that have plagued California.
A series of storms has coated mountains with blankets of snow and unleashed drenching rains that have even greened up landscapes recently blackened by wildfires.
Here are things to know about the suddenly soggy state:
The U.S. Drought Monitor reported Thursday that a large portion of the state including the Sierra Nevada, much of the Central Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area is free of any significant dryness.
Heavy rain has also ended most of the moderate drought that stretched from the Central Coast to the southern tier of the state, leaving a lesser condition designated as abnormally dry, according to the monitor.
California's southwestern corner, including all of San Diego County and portions of surrounding counties, remain in moderate drought even though it has received more than the usual amount of rain to date. The monitor said several reservoirs are still at their lowest levels in at least a year, and in one case, as long as three years.
A relatively small area of moderate to severe drought persists along the California-Oregon border.
More than 34 percent of the state now has no abnormal dryness or any of the four levels of drought, which are described as moderate, severe, extreme and exceptional.
Slightly more than half the state is considered abnormally dry and just 10.5 percent is either in moderate or extreme drought.
On Jan. 1, less than 8 percent of the state had no level of dryness or drought. Slightly more than 75 percent was in moderate, extreme or exceptional drought and the remainder was in the abnormally dry classification.
Just before last weekend's latest round of stormy weather, the California Department of Water Resources conducted its second Sierra snowpack survey of the season and found it was 100 percent of normal, an important reading because it holds about a third of the state's water supply.
Even more snow has fallen since, including staggering amounts at locations such as Mammoth Mountain. Eleven feet (3.3 meters) of snow fell on its 11,053-foot (3,369-meter) summit over four days, bringing the season total to more than 32 feet (9.7 meters), the resort said.
Rainfall totals this winter have been impressive.
Downtown Los Angeles, for example, has received nearly 13 inches (33 centimeters) of rain since the Oct. 1 start of the "water year." That's over 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) more than normal.
The result has been an explosion of verdant grasses across the state, including the Los Angeles region where the Mediterranean climate usually expresses itself in shades of khaki and tan.
Swaths of bright green have even sprouted amid vast areas burned black by wildfires.
The storms have caused burn scars to belch mud and rocks that have blocked streets and highways, but so far have not led to a repeat of the kind of disastrous and deadly debris flows that smashed the community of Montecito last winter.
Even with the high precipitation totals California has avoided major problems because the storms have been spaced far enough apart and have not been overly intense, said Alex Tardy, a warning coordination meteorologist with the National Weather Service in San Diego.
"We have been mostly fortunate with these big rain events, the atmospheric rivers, where the impact has been relatively localized," he said.
Historically, there have been winters with high precipitation totals that did not cause problems, but soils are saturated and many of the big reservoirs are starting to fill up, he said.
Even more snow.
The National Weather Service said two storms are expected to drop snow on Northern California mountains and higher foothills this coming weekend, producing dangerous driving conditions.
Significant snowfall is predicted at elevations down to 2,500 feet (762 meters) and light accumulations as low as 1,000 feet (305 meters).

Root Cause
I just finished another accident investigation, not too serious. Just prior to doing the investigation, I was reviewing my notes on accident investigation so that I was focused on the investigation and the facts. I came across this illustration of the "Accident Weed."
What this states is that the ultimate cause of all accidents is a system failure. Somewhere the safety program has deficiencies. These deficiencies lead to the accident. Although the deficiencies may not have been the direct cause of the accident, they allowed (or did not prevent) the behavior that lead to the accident.
In my years of investigation accidents I found a couple interesting factors that contribute; It is not the "goof-off" employee that is involved in serious accidents, it is the good employee that cares so much about his work that he forgets about safety practices (complacency).
Another factor is that time pressure is present in almost all of these serious accidents. The last contributing cause is when employees do not FOLLOW or do not UNDERSTAND the instructions given. #-part communication can solve this system weakness.

Billings Best Choices for National Taco Day
October is turning out to be a great food month. We get to celebrate pizza all month. And today (10/4) is National Taco Day! Seriously, who doesn't love tacos? Hard or soft shell, chicken, beef, shrimp or fish tacos...this simple, or sometimes complex, food item is loved by nearly everyone.
Tacos are generally inexpensive. They are filling and delicious. I love making them at home with soft corn shells, seasoned ground beef and my special cabbage & pineapple slaw. Super good. The great thing about tacos is that you can have them anyway you want.
Montana is not known as a haven for fantastic Mexican food (as transplants from southwestern states like to mention every time you try to talk about Mexican food in Montana), but when I need tacos in my belly, here are a few of my favorite picks around Billings:
- Guadalajara. We usually go to the recently remodeled Laurel location, but the Billings location is good, too. Their service and food quality have been consistently good every visit. Make sure you get one of their house margaritas on the rocks. So good.
- Taco Treat. I know, I know. The classic, soft corn shell, beef taco from Taco Treat is probably the least "authentic" taco in town, but I love them. Nothing fancy about these tacos. Meat, shredded lettuce, a pile of American cheese and that's about it. I douse mine in their house hot sauce and scarf down the taco lunch plate in about 5 minutes. It comes with two tacos, but I always add a third.
- Sarah's. This small, downtown restaurant is considered by many to be one of the most authentic Mexican places in Billings. Fresh ingredients, family recipes and locally owned, make sure you hit up Sarah's next time you're in the mood for a taco.
- Jake's. What? A steakhouse for tacos? Have I lost my mind? No. I have not. But you might just lose yours when you try the fish tacos at Jake's. They are to die for. I could eat them every day.
- Taco del Sol. A step up from your average fast-food taco, "fast-casual" Taco del Sol just opened a new location at Shiloh Crossing, in addition to the Heights store. Their tacos (and burritos) are good.
- Taco Bell & Taco John's. No taco snobbery from me. I'll be almost as happy eating a cheap taco as I am eating a finer taco. I give a slight edge to Taco John's over Taco Bell because TOTS. Nobody can beat TJ's tots.
Today is also National Vodka Day. Does vodka go well with tacos? I'll let you know tomorrow.

A Systematic Approach to Enhance Communication and Optimize Patient Flow Through the Use of Technology
Meeting: Hospital Medicine 2012, April 1-4, San Diego, Calif.
Abstract number: 97747
Communication failures are frequently cited as contributing to patient care errors and delays, specifically with regards to discharge planning. The common medical model, usually structured as a physician service team, houses patients across multiple nursing units throughout the hospital. This geographical distribution impairs physician to nurse communication and the ability to effectively coordinate the plan for patient's discharges thus, hindering efficient patient flow.
To implement an effective physiciantonurse communication methodology that was timely, standardized and improved discharge prediction and coordination. The goal was to improve discharge prediction, room turnover, pull time and bed turns.
Utilizing our existing computerized physician order entry (CPOE) system, we implemented a physician order that was to be entered within 36 hours prior to the patient's predicted discharge. An education plan was developed for physicians, nursing and other disciplines that outlined the process for the "planning order". The process includes patient and family awareness and education, prioritization of tasks, and follows up communication to the provider. This information was incorporated into existing standard workflow for communicating pending and confirmed discharges and use of a multidisciplinary electronic dashboard. Collectively, these tools serve to enhance communication around discharge prediction and improve reliability. Recent data from JulyOctober of 2011 compared to the same prior period demonstrates a 7.3% improvement in utilization of bed resources, moving from 89.9% occupancy to 96.5%. The reliability of the Planning Order (defined as patient departure within the period defined in the order) has increased by greater than 79% when compared initial Planning Order implementation efforts.
By integrating the "planning order" into standard work, we will be able to interface discharge notification in CPOE from physicians to Teletracking (electronic bed tracking system) used in Patient Placement Center. Sources of waste such as, waiting for test results, waiting for discharge paperwork, etc. have been mitigated. By further refining these interventions; we will improve forecasted bed availability, increase the preassignment of patients to currently occupied beds, and advance reductions in room idle time and waste in the process. Implementation of a physician driven electronic communication order, visible to all stakeholders, enables predication of anticipated discharge time therefore improving overall throughput.

text: Suicide prevention toolkit part one Our society is waking up to the fact that suicide is the biggest killer of young men. No longer a young man myself and for the first time since leaving school something other than suicide is more likely to kill me. Perhaps a heart attack, or an altercation with a punter in my local public house. It's something to celebrate because I have been particularly at risk as someone with bipolar. People with the condition are estimated to be 20 times more likely to take their own life than the general population. It being Suicide Prevention Month I would like to share with you my thoughts on suicidal ideation and how to prevent it. Rather than bombard you a hard to digest tips and techniques I'll serialise these in digestable and easy to retain chunks from today until this coming Friday. Firstly, what is suicidal ideation? I am sure there are suicides that occur due to a sudden perceived catastrophe such as a stockbroker realising a plunge in the FTSE has wiped out their holdings, or someone who's failed their A levels and has the immediate prospect of studying at the local agricultural college instead of university. But my experiences of suicidal ideation were far more sustained. It typically started with a slide over a number of weeks into depression, then deeper down to a point where my thinking became fixated on self-destruction. In this state, my mind seemed to focus exclusively on ways to take my life with an exhausting drip, drip, drip of repetitive suicidal thoughts. It was quite simply my brain telling me over and over again to kill myself. Sometimes the only relief was to consider different suicidal methodology and how comforting it would be not to exist anymore. This could go on for weeks and was exhausting. I think I should point out that the majority of the time I'm in a normal range of mood and these thought patterns were episodic. I haven't been affected for a number of years and I'm fine today. I think it is interesting to consider the first time I experienced these thoughts. I was 17 years old and still at school, recovering from my first manic episode that had thrown my academic life into disarray. It took 10 years for me to get a diagnosis of bipolar (about average) and I had no idea at the time why my erratic behaviour had damaged relationships with teachers and students alike. During the depressive episode that followed the mania, and which included suicidal ideation, I had no psychological tools to manage what I was experiencing. I concentrated on salvaging my A levels and in time was lucky that the extreme negative thought patterns subsided, despite a level of residual depression lingering for several years. So what stopped me? Probably the most important thing is the fact I grew up in a family. My Dad had bipolar so there were times when our lives were anything but stable, but we stayed together as a family despite some lean times. I consider that to be a strong protective factor. However, if a friend comes to you feeling suicidal, an observation about the benefits of stable family life isn't going to be much help. Are there practical things we can suggest beyond the usual, sound advice of going to a GP and calling a helpline if you're desperate? I believe so. There are protective thought patterns that I have developed that now enable me to beat suicidal ideation almost before it starts. When I was grappling with bipolar in the early noughties, I found a psychotherapist who specialised in Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP), a branch of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). A few sessions of NLP helped me establish a greater awareness of my inner voice and observe the way my mind told me all sorts of unhelpful messages. Developing an ability to spot self-sabotaging thought patterns, and to consider alternative ways to appraise myself and the world around me helped me significantly. I have since used the techniques I learned to develop a toolkit, which I apply when I spot the early warning signs of a manic or depressive episode occurring. There are specific things I do to prevent mania but I will focus here on techniques to prevent the depressive phase and suicidal ideation. My suicide prevention toolkit The anti-depression spanner set This consists of all the things I do to turn around a developing depressive episode - increasing exercise, coming off alcohol and coffee, telling my wife and trusted friends/colleagues that I'm at risk, and ensuring adequate but not excessive sleep. I apply the CBT techniques I have learned and pay more attention to my mental 'monitoring programme' that observes my thoughts and challenges irrational perceptions. Listening to 70s funk helps, rather than intensifying my low mood with someone like Leonard Cohen. Fresh air, sunlight and a good diet are also key. Antidepressant medication can be useful for some, but it can precipitate mania in people with bipolar and for that reason I don't take it. The hammer of experience People who make attempts on their lives run a significant risk of completing on the second and future attempts. But this is where a key protective thought pattern can be introduced. I tell myself that I survived last time, so this state of mind is temporary and will pass. I've managed to get out of the hole before and will be able to do it again. Explaining this to someone who is suicidal is tough and they simply aren't going to comprehend easily. Their mind may be telling them that a perceived catastrophe or situation they are facing is final and can't be solved, and that the only logical way to deal with it is self-destruction. They may believe they will always feel this bad. If done sensitively, however, it is possible to plant the kernel of an idea of the eventual transitory nature of these thoughts. I'll be back with another instalment of the suicide prevention toolkit tomorrow. Before then feel free to share what you have read with someone who might need it. Jeremy Your donation will help provide a range of services offering the support people need, when they need it steering people away from suicidal ideation. You can make sure there's someone at the end of the phone to listen, a nearby group to share experiences, a 24-hour peer forum and more. Together, we can support the person behind the diagnosis of bipolar.

A Lottery Win
I had one of those 'Exciting news about your lottery ticket' emails today, although I know it will be one of the thousands of lower pay outs, while I sign into my account in my mind somebody is pointing at me saying "It is you". No such luck but 25 Sovs will come in handy, I used to buy two tickets before they doubled the price I only buy one now so my chances of winning have halved.

The Netherlands boasts one of the best perinatal care systems in the world. However, the support and care given to young women through pregnancy and giving birth, may be quite different from what internationals are used to in their home country.
Healthcare for internationals (H4i) is currently researching the experiences that internationals have (or have had) with Dutch perinatal care. The outcomes will help healthcare providers to better meet the needs and expectations of internationals.
Perinatal care is the care a women and her (unborn) baby receive during pregnancy, when giving birth and in the first days after the baby is born, as well as, for the purpose of this survey, the care the child receives at the Youth Healthcare Clinic ('Consultatiebureau') during the first 4 years.
Please take this survey if you have experience with Dutch perinatal care and receive(d) care from a midwife, maternity nurse or youth healthcare clinic.

The Finisterre Mountains Range – a mountain range found on the second biggest island in the world, Papua New Guinea, located North East of Australia. Out of the 70 tribes in these mountains, all speaking different languages, 53 are still unreached.
What do I mean 'unreached' people?
- They have not heard that they are sinners, and that because of their sin, they're under the wrath of God (Rom 1:18-25) Because they are sinner, they need to hear the message of repentance and belief in Christ Jesus, the only Savior. Acts 4:12 – "And there is salvation in no one else, for there is NO OTHER NAME under heaven given among men by which we must be saved"
- They have no way of hearing. They don't have the Scripture translated into their own language in order that they can hear about Christ. Rom 10:13 – "For 'Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.' How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!"
Missionary work is not a clever, man-made plan – it is God's plan and desire. Matt 28:18-20 – "And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
We desire to carry out God's command by…
- Learning the nDo language.
- Proclaiming the gospel to the people in their language (Rom 1:16-17.)
- Baptizing believers.
- Teaching those who trust in Christ as their Savior to observe all that He has commanded us.
- Translating the Scriptures into their language.
- Planting a local church.
- Encouraging them to "go" and do the same work of Matt 28:18-20 in their surrounding villages.
Our desire is that the believer may continue to grow in maturity. God ordained for this to happen in the local church, as fellow believers meet together. Thus we plan to plant a church, with elders to Shepherd them, who meet the qualifications of Titus 1:5-9.
Ephesians 4:11-16 – "And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love."
Our desire is that God may be GLORIFIED by the people in Mawarero! As Chris Woolley said : "God the Father originated the mission, the Son enacted the mission, the Spirit empowered the mission, the church carries out the mission, the world encompasses the mission and the glory of God fulfils the mission."

We have a burning bush tree that has been ravaged by aphids. We seemed to have killed them off but our tree is losing its leaves and looks very unhealthy at the moment. Any answers?
Be sure to positively identify them as aphids, because they could also be scale insects, which would explain why the bush still doesn't look very good. Here are some articles that may help you:

Fall 1985
My second year at Vassar, they moved up the start of classes to Labor Day. Every year before classes had been scheduled to allow us all to enjoy the last long weekend of the summer properly ensconced by the shore or in the country. We were outraged of course but despite shared boasts and threats of arriving late, we all obediently arrived on time. The consequences, lost slots in full classes, missed syllabi, and most importantly the social set back of missing the pre-class parties were more than we were willing to risk. And so we returned for our second year, new fabulous furnishings for our rooms, chic outfits and tall tales from the summer in tow.
Unlike our first year, there was no three day orientation (subsequently curtailed due to some new arrivals never making it from the parties to classes), and so we were invited to arrive no earlier than Friday and no later than Sunday. By Saturday afternoon we were all back and unpacked, furniture re-installed, mini-fridge's and liquor cabinets stocked. Saturday evening the official party in the Aula and unofficial party in the Mug were packed. Seasoned sophomores, we made sure to get our Mug bracelets early (so we could skip the line later) and duck out to the Aula around ten to be sure we weren't missing anything.
Ford was my best friend at Vassar. I'm not exactly sure how or why we became best friends but somehow, somewhere amidst the chaos of our first year we found in each other exactly what we each needed in a friend; social standing, acid wit, and the ability to drink all night and still arrive on time to our morning classes.
Handsome, beautiful really but I didn't see it then, well bred, or well brought up, I think dogs are well bred., faultlessly polite, when he was on his good behavior, exceptionally well dressed, smart, talented and with plenty of money. Ford was admired , desired and resented all at once and I loved him for it.
Ford was connoisseur of consumables. Ford knew quality, insisted on the best and almost never paid retail. A consummate bargain hunter, Ford flew to London for a Burberry sale and bought two overcoats and half a dozen other plaid things just so he could say he saved more on his bounty than the airfare cost. We love air fair wars. With his mother he stalked the weekend auctions in the Smokey Mountains, bidding on the perfect items for the well furnished dorm room. Just before returning for the semester he made a quick to trip to Montreal to pick up uber expensive cognac duty free and cartons of cigarettes.
Ford's smart social observations precisely dissecting his peers to reveal their every flaw with great humor are what first attracted me to him. Ford wasn't richer than all of his classmates, in fact his trust fund was modest in comparison to some. But while others had to wait, making due on a generous allowance, for a future magic birthday, 21 or god forbid 25! Ford had gotten his money at 18 direct from his dear old Auntie. And so it was his to spend as he chose. It was how he paid for Vassar when Da refused to pay for "some damn Northern Sissy School." Ford spent freely if not carelessly, knowing that a 21 he would get a great deal more from Mummy so long as he graduated.
Selected Characters
Ford's tall, fabulously thin with a wasp waist and perfectly proportioned features. Thick brown curly hair in need of regular visits to Sassoon for a taming cut. Rich enough with his own money from an aunt or uncle and even richer from his families successes in various genteel industries. A poor Southern farm boy when it helped, Ford had been thrown out of several prep schools and been forced to actually graduate from a Boston area last chance school. He came to Vassar because Mummy had and Da hated the idea. Da had not actually attended college. He had been too busy crashing race cars and playing at other fabulously expensive hobbies. Da was the bane of his father who had insisted his son not waste his life in play and get an education. When Da's father died suddenly, Da reformed with a vengeance. Too old to go to college (at least as Da say it), he threw himself into enterprise. Da took his father's small delivery service and transformed it in only a couple of years into a nationwide fleet of trucks to which he added air and ocean transit services. Da leveraged these to secure a leaseholds on various airports and other key urban sites giving him real estate leverage across the country. By the time Ford came to Vassar, Da had untold riches and power.
Mary Ann Kravitz (a.k.a. Makra) was a good old fashioned Connecticut girl. A blonde when she was a little girl, she was now a blonde with a little help from a bottle. Makra and Drew had know each other for years. She'd actually gone to prep with Drew. At prep, Makra has seemed to Drew to be exotic and artistic. But Drew had mistaken Makra's daring wardrobe (no Talbot's in sight) for a kind of exotica. In fact Makra was just committing a basic form of rebellion aided by her hometown proximity to Manhattan. Makra had actually shopped in the Village at prep. At Vassar, Makra kept the same look which was not nearly as exotic amidst the various student style choices. Makra was extremely committed to her art (some kind of college thing) and her vodka (Stoli, of course).
Jason is cute in that tall plain preppy sort of way. Drew's roommate freshman year, Drew was initially intrigued and then bored by Jason. Jason came from solid Connecticut stock or at least had been adopted by solid Connecticut stock. He's a committed preppy, insisting on plaids, plaids and more plaids. Drew swears he even coordinates his boxers with his sheets so as not to sleep in blackwatch on Campbell or vice versa. Jason was perpetually polite and kind to a fault.
Nancy Jane Pruit (a.k.a. Prissy) was an upstate New York girl. Way up state. Prissy insisted she loved upstate and missed it terribly. Otherwise Prissy was a normal if excessively prudish girl

Developed by Jen Roberts, who along with Diana Neebe authored Power Up: Making the Shift To 1:1 Teaching and Learning, the Tech Model is one that focuses on student and teacher actions, rather than on the tasks being performed. This guideline can be used as an alternative to or in conjunction with the SAMR Model.

WASHINGTON D.C. - While many kids across the Nation's Capital started their summer vacation weeks ago, eleven D.C. Public Schools still have a week left.
It's a part of the extended school year program, which gives each school an extra 200 days or month of learning.
In total, 4,583 students are involved.
In 2016, Mayor Muriel Bowser announced the she was expanding extended year to ten additional schools for the 2016-2017 school year as a part of her administration's work to accelerate education reform.
She visited Garfield Elementary School on Friday as they prepare to wrap up their first year with the extension.
"Each day we purposely take advantage of the additional time we have with our children," says Principal Kennard Branch.
Raymond Education Campus first piloted the extended year program in the 2015-2016 school year.
According to the mayor's office, on the 2016 PARCC exam, the school saw improved academic performance, with a six percent increase in English Language Arts proficiency and a three percent increase in math proficiency.
However, Chancellor of DCPS, Antwan Wilson, says the program is for more than combatting summer learning loss, but for the kids to have time with adults.
"We know students grow from being in places and spaces with adults who care about them who are concentrated on their learning," he says.
Some parents told DCW50 they are supportive of the program.
Others said it is especially beneficial for the younger students, but may get in the way of things like summer jobs as the kids get older.
"While he's young and he needs this much education, I do like it," says Risha Briscoe, mother of a 5-year-old Pre-K student Kimatni.
Chancellor Wilson says they are focusing on the program with the eleven schools for the upcoming school year.
However, conversations are in the works for how they can open the program to other schools that express interest.

text: James Spencer - September 23, 2010 Proper Conditioning For Hunting - Spaniels The latest training techniques for spaniels. By James B. Spencer "To tell whether a spaniel is in good hunting condition," Don said, "stand behind him and look to the front. His neck should be apparent so that his head doesn't appear to grow out of his shoulders. His rib cage should be well defined, with just a suggestion of rib bones. Between his rib cage and his hips, he should have a slight 'Barbie-doll' indentation."Don has found that some spaniel owners let their dogs get badly out of shape between hunting seasons. Their dogs spend most of their off-season time as family pets, getting little or no strenuous physical exercise, especially during the harsh winter months. "Overweight is usually the major issue," he said, "brought on by too little exercise and too much food, especially table scraps and other treats. When you start conditioning your spaniel, you should stop the excess feeding and rely on a high-quality dog food in appropriate quantities." Don recommends that you start the conditioning process with a trip to the vet for a check-up, followed by a grooming session to remove mats from your dog's coat.That done, you should start taking your spaniel for daily runs in the field, ideally in hunting cover. Don pointed out that if you walk along while your dog runs and hunts, you'll be less apt to overwork him. When you're tired, so is he, so quit. "When you're walking," he said, "your dog is covering three to five times as much ground as you are." Proper Conditioning For Hunting Retrievers Pointing Breeds As your spaniel begins to get into condition, you can add some training drills to your program: patterning work, hunt-deads, retrieving, and so on. But you should keep these drills short and fun for your dog.Don recommends limited swimming for conditioning a spaniel, such as tossing fun dummies in water, swimming with your dog, and short marking and blind retrieve drills."Spaniels are not retrievers," he said. "If you try to swim your spaniel as much as you would in conditioning a retriever, it'll quickly become counter-productive. He may wear out. He may start swallowing too much water. He may start 'puppy paddling.' And he may even refuse to enter the water. So keep his swimming sessions short--and fun."Don stressed that when conditioning your spaniel in warm weather, you must prevent overheating. In fact, he feels that overheating is the most serious danger the dog faces."When you and your dog are exercising together," he said, "he is putting in three to five miles for every one you put in. And he's wearing a fur coat!"During warm weather, do your conditioning work early in the morning and late in the evening, and have plenty of fresh water available. Never confine your dog in a closed space immediately after exercising. First let him cool down in a lake or in some shade. Then, when you confine him, make sure he has plenty of ventilation.Don described the signs of overheating as very rapid breathing; hyper-extended tongue; excessive drooling, often followed by a dry mouth and nose; stiff, uneasy movement, weakness; and seeming confusion. At the first sign of overheating, you should cool your dog down immediately with cool water.If you have cold packs or ice packs, apply them to areas of high blood circulation, such as the groin, armpits, and the front of the neck. If possible, get air circulating around the dog, either with a fan or by putting him into the cab of an air-conditioned vehicle. "The final, and most important step," Don said, "is a trip to the vet. Even if your dog seems to be stabilized, he's still in serious danger of belated complications, not excluding death! "An overheated dog needs, and deserves, veterinary supervision."As a final thought, Don added this: "Hunting is a team effort and both of you need to be in shape so you can support one another's efforts. By working out together in the pre-season, you'll be a better team afield in the fall."This tip is from Donald P. Krueger of Orion Guide Service, 1825 Lakeview Terrace, Stoughton, WI 53589; (608) 873-8549; e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. John has been training all sporting breeds (spaniels, retrievers, and pointing breeds) professionally for 14 years. He trains for hunting and hunting tests. He is one of the few, perhaps the only one, to have trained and handled spaniels, retrievers, and pointing breeds to their AKC MH titles.

I know most of you assume that we've got a pretty high-end operation over here at 901 Collection, with fancy robotic inventory management systems, and army of staff. We thought it would be fun this week to let you peek behind the curtain and see what our little family business is really all about.
As some of you may already know, 901 Collection is a joint endeavor by Emily & Jonathan May (who you might know from 3 Shades of Blue & 3SOBRadio) and Courtney & Mark King (who you might know from Grizz/Fan Essentials). Both families were going (separately) to Disney earlier this fall, and we worked together to make some pretty awesome "Grizzney" shirts for everyone to wear on the trip.
Not surprisingly, we had a lot of people ask us if they could buy one of those shirts. While we knew we couldn't acquiesce that request, it occurred to us that we'd really enjoyed the process of designing shirts together and were eager to find another project to work on as a group. As we looked around the vibrant Memphis shirt market, we found that there was a staggering shortage of clean, simple and gender-neutral designs, and very few long sleeve shirts. And thus, an idea was born.
Now that you know a little about us, and why we're doing this, we thought we'd show you what "901 Collection HQ West" (aka "The May Residence") is all about. Of course, it all starts with the very best Comfort Colors shirts, which we source from the manufacturer and one secondary distributor, depending on stock availability.
From the time we order raw shirts to the time finished shirts are delivered from our local printer is generally about two weeks. This is part of the reason that our pre-order policy provides that it may be as long as 14 business days if you purchase something out-of-stock. It may be shorter, if we've already got an order in process for that design. It could be a little longer if we can't place the order until the following Monday. Take comfort in knowing that we want to get them to you as quickly as possible, and are always working on ideas that can shorten our production time.
Once the shirts come in, we immediately inventory and inspect them to ensure that the shirt and print is up to our standards. Then, we get to folding and tying, which is...intense.
Now, you may wonder how we get such a beautiful, consistent fold on the 901 Collection shirts you receive. It's a trade secret, but we will share it with you if you promise to keep it between us:
If you ever came over for one of our "staff meetings" (aka "lets order some wings and talk about the Grizzlies and some business"), and saw the destruction left in the wake of our five-year-olds, you'd know this book was the appropriate selection! Once everything is folded, tied and tagged, it goes into our highly complex inventory control systems:
From there, it is order fulfillment time! Now, when we have outstanding pre-orders, our first priority is to get those folded, tied, tagged, packed and shipped. We're consumers too, and know that waiting for your online purchase can be the worst. Otherwise, every night after the interns (errr...kids) go to bed, we go upstairs, consult our master notebook and write thank you cards to fulfill that day's orders.
With the orders pulled and cards written, its time to pack and ship!
The process ends, at least for us, when we drop off all our packages at the Post Office!
Once they are out of our hands, we get to sit back and wait for your tweets and Facebook messages, and enjoy your excitement for your new favorite shirt(s)! We're not kidding when we say these messages make our day, so please keep sending them!
Now you know how the sausage is made, so to speak! We hope you've enjoyed this little tour of the 901 Collection operation. We just wanted you all to know that this is a labor of love from our families to you, and that we take seriously our commitment to provide outstanding customer service and deliver the best Memphis-centric shirts you've ever purchased.
As a reward for those of you who took the time to read this little story, we've set up a promo code (BEHINDTHECURTAIN) for you. Enjoy!
-- Team 901 Collection

The Multigenerational Workforce: BYOD at Unisys
The first step toward bridging the technology generation gap is recognizing that a potential problem exists. Patricia Titus, vice president and chief information security officer at Unisys, says that the company is attempting to swim with the current rather than fight it. "We felt that it was necessary to adopt a consumer IT framework that enables the workforce to be more productive," she says. (For more on this topic, read the full CIO Insight report "Managing a Multigenerational Workforce.")
Unisys is developing a BYOD (bring your own device) program that accommodates workers but also protects the company's interests and security requirements. Employees can use a smartphone or tablet of their choice as long as they abide by an acceptable-use agreement. Among the terms: Users must allow a public-key infrastructure device certificate to be installed on their smartphone along with remote wipe software. They must also acknowledge that they understand that their personal device may be confiscated for unspecified periods in the event of a legal hold.
The company is now rolling out the BYOD program in North America. Other countries will follow. "We must take into consideration the laws and privacy requirements of every country where we have employees," Titus says. She doesn't expect the task to be onerous. "Smartphone technology and many smaller mobile devices are really just data replicators," she explains. "We focus on the data rather than the device and educate employees about the risks, including the use of social media."
Titus believes that the program is a valuable exercise in identifying policies and procedures that accommodate today's workplace. "It's no longer possible to build a fortress," she says. "You have to figure out how to protect your digital assets, while allowing employees to use the device of their choice."

Bruce S J Hill
A New Zealander who has lived in Abu Dhabi for 17 years, Bruce Hill has been exhibiting his work for over 30 years. During this time his work has developed into a distinctive intuitive expressive style.
He usually starts his compositions employing impasto effects and then brings in intuition to develop motifs, shapes and colours. These express meanings and emotions personal to him and hopefully of some meaning to the viewers of his work.
Hill was a keen supporter of fine art in Abu Dhabi and organised several exhibitions throughout the city. Bruce lead four art groups in New Zealand and it was on his initiative that the Abu Dhabi Art Squad was set up.
First in 1999, as an amateur grouping, and again in 2008 as a group of professional artists. Bruce is also a teacher with over 35 years of teaching experience. He taught art in Al Ain, Dubai and Abu Dhabi and was the senior art teacher at the German International School in Abu Dhabi from 2009 to 2014.
From 2014 until late 2018 He lived in Madinat Zayed, a small city on the edge of the Empty Quarter, 160 kms south west of Abu Dhabi.
Bruce worked on developing a "round" painting philosophy with meditations on The Self as the centre of his art focus. The "Being" part of Human Being
This lead to his return to the round painting format he constructed in 1987 using canvas stretched over circular aluminium frames*
His last work in the UAE now in the possession of the Abu Dhabi Department of Culture and Knowledge is titled "Light Behind the Eyes".
An impressive 2 m by 1.6 metre work LBTE explores the Human Being undivided, and division emerging over time and with involuntary subjection to the square based binary digital world. This world continues to divide the Self but the Self remains intact throughout with awareness established through pineal gland focus.
The sovereignty of the individual, under threat from this ever dividing square based world, is now represented in Bruce's work more clearly in his round formated heart strong paintings. Here the attributes of the round format dictate a boundary weak but strongly centred world in which to create. A world more in tune with the natural world on earth and in the cosmos.
Bruce now paints exclusively in the round.
* This is a unique circular painting support format now able to be manufactured in the UAE

Lipinski Votes to Protect the Paychecks of Part-time Workers by Changing ACA Definition of Full-time Work from 30 to 40 Hours a Week (April 3, 2014)
Today, Congressman Dan Lipinski (IL-3) voted in favor of H.R. 2575, the Save American Workers Act. This bipartisan legislation adjusts the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) definition of full-time employment from 30 hours to the traditional 40-hour work week, protecting part-time workers from losing wages and work schedule flexibility as employers adjust to the ACA.
"Ask most Americans and they will tell you that a full-time workweek is 40 hours, not 30 as defined in the ACA," said Rep. Lipinski. "If left unchanged, an unintended consequence of the ACA would be a reduction in take-home-pay for millions of hard-working Americans. Many families would suddenly be forced to make financial decisions they shouldn't ever have to make, or find another part time job to try and make up the difference."
Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), employers with more than 50 full-time equivalent workers must offer health insurance to their employees or face a penalty. The current law defines full-time status as 30 hours of work per week, significantly below the traditional definition of 40 hours that employers and workers have been accustomed to for decades. As a result of the ACA, hourly or part-time employees working between 30 and 40 hours per week could see – and some already have seen – their hours reduced as companies face either unaffordable new costs or substantial ACA-related penalties.
The Administration has already acknowledged problems in implementing the employer mandate rules and has instituted multiple delays and substantial administrative changes to the law. In July 2013, the rules were first delayed for a year for all employers. In February of this year the rules were delayed again for employers with 50-99 workers and significantly loosened for employers with 100 or more workers.
Representatives of the retail, restaurant, and education sectors from across the country have testified that the 30 hour definition of full time in the ACA will result in as many as 2.6 million part-time workers having their hours cut resulting in lost wages.
In addition to lost wages, many workers could lose the scheduling flexibility currently available through many part-time jobs. In some hourly positions, workers are currently able to swap shifts and change their hours from week to week in order to accommodate family needs or emergencies. But with a 30-hour definition of full-time work, employers may no longer permit this flexibility, as workers would cycle in and out of full-time status from week to week.
A recent report from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office confirms that the shift from a 30-hour to a standard 40-hour week in the ACA could lead to some people seeing an increase in their take-home-pay.
Last year, Lipinski introduced the Forty Hours is Full Time Act to change the ACA's definition of full time work. Earlier this year, he and Rep. Todd Young of Indiana consolidated their efforts, with Lipinski joining Young's legislation, the Save American Workers Act, as a co-sponsor.

Did you get that lovely little shamrock plant for St. Patrick's Day? Super! Now here is one way to use it – BUT a major caution first!
Don't eat oxalis just purchased unless it is labeled "organic." Plants that are ornamental (as opposed to vegetables) are very often treated with toxic insecticides and fungicides (biocides) that are systemic (throughout all plant tissues) and stay in the plants for around three months. Herbs and vegetable plants are not legally treated with systemic biocides because they are edibles.
Using Oxalis
Both leaves and flowers of oxalis are edible with a pleasing tartness. Flowers and leaves can be added to salads and soups for a zesty citrusy tang. Or capitalize upon this lemony flavor and puree leaves with fresh dill and a drizzle of olive oil to use on fish – delightful! The flavor of oxalis also works well to make a "lemon" chicken.
So far I have also mixed diced oxalis flowers and leaves into omelets, fritattas, potato salad, egg salad, and put it in "wraps" with cream cheese, turkey, or ham. A friend chops oxalis and adds it along with fresh oregano her home-made goat cheese.
Oxalis Wraps
These wraps good to make for a potluck or a party that calls for finger foods. All you need are some wrappers, something as a "holder-together, and some oxalis.
Wrappers can be flour tortillas or a gluten-free alternative. The holder-together can be cream cheese or a non-dairy substitute. Do make it something with a mild flavor so the zing of the oxalis can predominate.
Oxalis should be cut fresh, rinsed, and the stems trimmed off. If there are any seed pods, they should be removed as well because they can be stringy. Feel free to munch them if you wish, you just might not want to inflict them on guests. You need a great deal of oxalis, and if you run short, a mild chive can be added, or even micro-greens.
Smear the wrap with cream cheese, add the oxalis to one half and roll it up. Leave about half the tortilla uncovered by greens so the cheese will help it stick when wrapped – these are finger foods.
Slice into bite-sized chunks. If you slice on a diagonal it looks more elegant. This means you will have trimmings to eat or feed to the chickens.
Meat is just fine in these wraps, I made two plates of oxalis wraps for the party I went to – one vegetarian, one "meat-atarian." The oxalis goes very well with milder flavored meats like turkey or chicken.
If you live in Southeastern Arizona, please come to one of my lectures. Look for me at your local Pima County Library branch, Tubac Presidio, Tucson Festival of Books and other venues. After each event I will be signing copies of my books, including Southwest Fruit & Vegetable Gardening (Cool Springs Press).

Fortune Cookie Soap Vivid Bar Soap Review
After trying out Vivid Body Mist I immediately knew I had to get me some other Vivid scented products from Fortune Cookie Soap! I love me some sweet, fruity fragrances and Fortune Cookie Soap Vivid Bar Soap is a big old sweet smelling chunky of glittery soap.
Yeah, it caters to both my need for fruity sweet scents and GLITTER! Glitter in the shower? Bring that on!
Don't worry, the bar of soap is glittery but it doesn't transfer to your body!
This big old chunk of pink soap smells exactly like a cold glass of fruit punch. It takes me back to my 5 year old self when that ungodly awesome hour came and everyone sat down for cookies and sugary fruit punch. I don't have kids but but at 5 years old if they had a teacher serving Hawaiian Punch along with cookies I'd have to send them to another school. What were we all crazy in the 80s!? Giving a five year old fruit punch and cookies? Forget nap time! We must have all been crawling up the walls as children!
At least Fortune Cookie Soap Vivid Bar Soap is completely sugar-free! And you still get glitter and fruit punch, tell me what more could a girl want in the shower? This is a large bar of soap weighting in at 6 oz so it'll last you for literally ages. I slice it up and take a piece into the shower! It lathers up nicely and leaves skin delicately scented after you bath!
As far as I can see the injection of sugary fruit punch in the shower isn't making me run in circles and climb walls yet so I'd def call it a sugar-free soap! Wink!
If you love sugary fruity scents I imagine you'll adore Vivid!
Did I say it had glitter?
Available now at fortunecookiesoap.com.

Published first in 1935, the second edition of this textbook gives evidence of careful revision. Much old material has been removed and the results of recent investigations have been incorporated. This has occasionally required the rewriting of whole sections. New chapters have been added on the reticulo-endothelial system and serum sickness. Many transpositions of material have been made, both within and among chapters. This has led to greater continuity of thought and clarity of presentation. The illustrations on the whole are helpful and the references appended to each chapter are adequate. The total impression gained is that the book has

Goddesses is the third offering in Navona Records' The Shakespeare Concerts Series, which presents several works by composer Joseph Summer from his collection of settings of Shakespearean scenes, sonnets, and soliloquies, Oxford Songs. These particular works are reflections on feminine divinity, from the literal – as in the triumvirate of Roman goddesses in the piece Honour, Riches, Marriage-Blessing – by way of the metaphorical – as exemplified by the depiction of women in the sonnets, In The Old Age Black Was Not Counted Fair andShall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day – and to the figurative – contained in the idealized, eternal female characters of Juliet, Olivia, and Ophelia, respectively portrayed in the works,Gallop Apace You Fiery-Footed Steeds, If Music Be The Food of Love, and There Is a Willow Grows Aslant a Brook. Summer's deep knowledge of Shakespeare's works and rich compositional technique produce a musical and literary experience that adds layers of insight to Shakespearean characters and themes.

From nin.com:
Nine Inch Nails will not be performing at the MTV Movie Awards as previously announced. We were set to perform "The Hand That Feeds" with an unmolested, straightforward image of George W. Bush as the backdrop. Apparently the image of our President is as offensive to MTV as it is to me. See you on tour this fall when we return to play in America.

Tongues tell us a lot. In Traditional Chinese Medicine. Tongue areas correspond to internal organs and if you take a look- you can see what might be going on.
The normal tongue in Traditional Chinese Medicine has a light red or pinkish body with a thin white coating.
The picture shows the Channels/Meridians Reaching the Tongue:
I'll share with you my own tongue to give you an example. When I looked this week- I could see a it was shiny, with a thin coating of white which suggested it was in good health however I could see a little redness at the tip which showed me that my Fire element was beginning to go out of kilter. This told me that I need to take more care of my heart, its connections to my lungs and my small intestine and pericardium and take more care of my own chi 'life-force' otherwise known as my ' Yin' which will otherwise begin to run out and lead to more deficiency.
The beautiful thing about seeing our tongues is that it can demonstrate a reflection of our internal systems and the best part is that it can be easily remedied through diet and lifestyle with the support of a therapist.
The actions I need to take are 1. to take more care of my heart and its circulation so eating more white and red food. To take care of my Lungs which feed my heart – making sure I have time to do my own daily Yoga practice will be helpful for me. And finally to take a few more early nights and try to get 9-10 hours of sleep for the next few weeks. I had been staying up late watching a new series and with teenage children staying up later on a weekend than usual waiting for them to come in – but what this has meant for me has staying up far later than I should over the last few weeks. I will be heeding my own advice and be eating food to feed my spleen which feeds my pathways to the liver for detoxing with the full moon as this is the best time for the body to work to it natural rhythms and balance its life force.
So having heard my story, What does your tongue say about you?
if you's like to know in more detail book a consultation and see if theres something you can do.
We are in metal season now which is essentially the winter element. So its not surprise we will all be feeling the affect of the cold days a nights.
Heres a few tips that can be used easily for supporting yourselves and your wellbeing.
Eat more white food; rice, pulses like cannelloni, haricot and white kidney beans are excellent this time of year. Try congee. 1 part rice, 4 parts water. Season to your taste and add root vegetables, leeks. You can make it vegan or add fish or chicken stock if you would like to make a really fortifying broth.
The few final things to think about to really give yourselves a boost : Drink more fluids and eat omega 3 rich food.
Both can be helpful to the body and have so many properties for supporting wellbeing.

Not all street art encompasses a door. But this creation in Urbana, Illinois blends door into art seamlessly.
Very cool photo 🙂
Thanks. Glad you like it.
LOVE it! Talented street artist and a door – big hit. 🙂
Too bad it's in an alley!
Wow, you found a very unique door – very creative of the artist must say!
A creativity I don't possess, that's for sure, Suvi. 🙂 But at least I can take a photo of it.
That. Is. AWESOME! Nice find 😀
Glad the street artist expert enjoyed it, Norm. 🙂
Very interesting and vibrant piece of street art, well-captured!
I featured another part of this art in an earlier post, but they're both in an alley which is too bad.
I love that, it's brilliant. Does his head disappear behind the vine when it greens up?
I suppose it does, Jean. I'll have to check if I'm back there in summer. 🙂
What a cool capture, Janet! 🙂
Thanks, Amy. I'm glad I walked through the back way.
That's pretty cool looking.
Someone did good work.
Very cool! 😀
Glad you enjoyed it, Linda.
Very cool find. Love this
I can't imagine drawing/painting on that scale, Raewyn (or, for me, on any scale.) 🙂
Street artists amaze me.
Me, too, Patti!
Love this! So funny really. 🙂
When you look at the subject, it really is rather funny, Sylvia.
It tickled my funny-bone. 🙂
Am glad the artist went around the door – it (door) would otherwise have been hard to see! The artwork – the guy with a walker, I wonder what it refers too… It's a great find!
I don't know, but the artist did a good job.
Now that is a door with a difference. What a rather strange/alien person
What incredible street art
There are some amazing artists out there, Becky.
Interesting graffiti art door.
There was some more similar art just down the alley.
Now, that's a door post! Nice find and thanks for sharing it.
My pleasure. Thanks for commenting.
Fun to find where I didn't expect it.

Hotel Secrets To Get The Most Out Of Your Stay
When staying in a hotel, you don't want to feel as if you've been taken advantage of. If something rubs you the wrong way, it will be hard to enjoy your trip. Learn how to minimize the potential of a bad experience by reading the following article.
Use travel websites, like Expedia and Priceline to find great hotel deals. Make sure you notify the reservation clerk about any loyalty program you belong to with the hotel. Also, as an added bonus, you may get discounts from other companies such as AAA or AARP.
Think about using room service if you want to enjoy late-night dining without needing to leave your hotel room. While it may cost a little extra, it is worth it if you can stay in your comfortable room as you satisfy your cravings.
Be sure to keep your valuables and electronics secure by locking them in your hotel room's safe. Putting these items in the safe ensures that you can go out and have fun, not worrying about what you've left in the room.
Check in on the organizations you belong to. Many of these places will give you cheaper hotel prices. Many people don't remember these discounts, which can save them 10% or more. If you are planning to stay a few nights, this can really add up. A stay of 5 days or more could add up to one free hotel night stay!
Checking online is the best way to find a good price and get the information that you need about hotels. Usually, when you try to book a room over the phone, the clerk will not let you know that there is a better deal online. This is why you should always do your research well online to find these hidden discounts. Look at Jetsetter, Enrovia and Hotels.com.
Plan your trip in advance for the best rates. Many hotels offer the best discounts if you book a few months in advance. You may even be able to cut the price down by half!
You don't want to assume that the hotel you will be staying in is considered pet friendly. So call ahead and make sure you understand if there are extra fees or a limited number of rooms available. Be certain you understand all rules pertaining to pets. Some hotels only allow certain types, sizes and breeds.
There are three different things you should do in advance if you're going to be traveling with a pet. Find out if the hotel you have selected is pet-friendly. Additionally, bring along a few plastic bags suitable for cleaning up after your animal. When you go to make the hotel reservation, see if there is room on the end that would prevent the other guests from hearing a noisy pet.
If you want to have a great time during your hotel stay, follow the advice as outlined here. If you're able to figure out what needs to be watched for and what to do to get good deals, your experience will go just fine. When you're on the road and you stop at a hotel, it's time to relax not time to be made uncomfortable and unhappy.…

Due to variations in computer monitors, actual finish may appear differently online.
BDI's wood finishes feature natural hardwood solids and veneers. Wood is a product of nature and - unlike man-made materials that can be manufactured to strict and consistent specifications - has natural imperfections that are part of its appeal and character. Every piece of wood differs from every other, even when coming from the very same tree. As such, variation in grain, texture and tone should be expected from one panel or piece of furniture to the next. It is this variation that separates natural wood from an engineered product, and variations should be expected as part of the beauty of a real wood finish.
BDI's Natural Walnut finish is clear-coated and does not include any stains or color modifiers whatsoever. This natural finish will typically change in appearance over time, usually starting out as a medium tone and then becoming darker, more amber over time with exposure to ambient natural light. It can also fade and get much lighter with exposure to direct sunlight. To avoid discolored spots in the wood tone, periodically move any items that are resting on the finished surfaces including lamps, vases, TVs, etc.

to Hindu belief marriages are settled in heaven, but celebrated on earth.
It is believed
the Almighty has already decided a suitable life-partner of a boy or girl.
However it is the responsibility of parents of boy as well as girl to find
out this already decided life-partner.
Normally, the parents of the prospective spouses get together either through a
common relative or through a matchmaker. The families discuss each other's
backgrounds and work out the
For most
people in India, the betrothal of the young couple and the
exact date and time of the wedding are matters decided by the
parents in consultation with astrologers. At Hindu weddings,
the bride and bridegroom represent the god and the goddess,
although there is a parallel tradition that sees the groom as
a prince coming to wed his princess. The groom, decked in all
his finery, often travels to the wedding site on a caparisoned
white horse or in an open limousine, accompanied by a
After some
time, the prince is joined by the most elegant lady of the night in red coloured Sari and beautiful gold jewellery. Yes! It is the time for
one of the most beautiful moments of a wedding ceremony, Jaimal,
in which both bride & groom exchange garlands of fresh flowers in presence of all
the relatives & friends, acknowledging the life-long bondage. Jaimal is
followed by a long photo-session including Prince, Princess and near&
dear ones. Next in the queue is Grand Dinner- a wide range of
Indian Delicacies!
Later bride & groom are escorted to the Mandap (alter) by their parents
for the core ceremony of Agni Sakshi that goes on past midnight. The
young couple circumambulates the sacred fire
(representing the god
Agni) seven times, called Agni Pheras. At the same time they take
solemn vows of loyalty, steadfast love and
life-long fidelity to each other,
with the fire as their prime witness. Hindus believe in rebirth and hence by
taking seven rounds it is believed that the souls of the bride and the groom
are married together for the next seven lives, including the present. Each
round of the god Agni is accompanied by the recitation of a mantra,
which explains its significance.
