Written by Steve Beckow, The Golden Age of Gaia, December 28, 2014 – http://tinyurl.com/n9w8fwf
As a lightworker building Nova Earth, one of the agreements I've made (and you may have made it as well) is not to follow the path of the mystic this lifetime – not, that is, to the exclusion of my lightwork.
Archangel Michael has been clear on the matter on a number of occasions, and what he says here of me may also apply to you:
Archangel Michael: You did not come to live as a guru in a western or eastern manner. … You are here to be a transition point and … to show people how to do both [awaken and build Nova Earth].
If you were completely involved in your full awakening, you in very great likelihood would not be forming a platform with me. You would be off somewhere in an ashram meditating. (1)
My focus needs to be on the here-and-now life in and what works in regard to observable human behavior. Again you may find that this is one of your agreements as well.
There's nothing inherently wrong about being a mystic. Far from it. But what's wanted and needed right now is people turning their attention to the practical matters of building the New Earth.
And I'm learning. I make lots and lots of mistakes and sometimes get triggered and drawn in and all the rest of it. So I'm not pretending to be some paragon of virtue, but more of an explorer.
There are several pieces of the puzzle that are indeed mystical in nature in that how they work is a mystery to us. But they nonetheless serve us in the practical arena of our lives.
One is the whole discussion about remaining in the center, remaining in balance. Kathleen and Graham excel in this area.
This area is related to such things as talking in Perro, which is emotionally-neutral, bare and descriptive language. It's related to staying in the heart, which is the center and fulcrum of our being.
It's accomplished by detachment, equanimity, the lack of an agenda. It's helped by lowering (downscaling) every need to a want and every want to a preference and then having no preference.
We might consider this similar to the training a soldier goes through before being assigned to a combat unit. We trim down, focus in, strengthen our resolve and ability to concentrate on the work at hand. In the process we let go of more and more of the personal.
Lao Tzu gave the best statement of it:
"Let this monkey [the ego] go. Let the senses go. Let desires go. Let conflicts go. Let ideas go. Let the fiction of life and death go. Just remain in the center,watching. And then forget that you are there." (2)
What are we to attach to if we let go of all that's "worldly" or Third Dimensional? The simplest term for it would be "the heart."
Years ago I was talking about the basic spiritual movement as discriminating between the Real and the unreal, detaching from the unreal, and attaching or devoting oneself to the Real. The heart is the Real. The heart is the Christ, the Atman, the Self. Staying in the heart, in the center, in balance is all three spiritual actions rolled into one.
A second, very practical but mystical action is what I've been describing over the past two days: to take three breaths and on each inbreath to imagine yourself drawing love up from your heart and on the outbreath sending that love out to the whole world. I predict you'll end up in bliss by the third breath. But maybe the fourth. Whatever it is for you.
Again, why that results in bliss I don't know. I'm not really sure that I need to know. It just works.
Matt Kahn in the video The Love Revolution discusses the tremendous power that'd be generated by every person telling their own heart "I love you" and continues:
"Every single person who says 'no, that's not true' is justifying why they have the right to give their attention to the very thing that distracts them from the love they have not learned how to give themselves." (3)
Matt goes on to say that we may find that the activities which keep us from exploring love expand to fill the space we provide for them. If we provided no space for them, they wouldn't appear in our lives and we'd have time for love.
And it isn't that the other activities press on us – although they may. It's that we allow them to press on us when there's often no need to. Much of what we do instead of exploring love turns out to be non-essential.
I've certainly seen this over and over in the past few weeks. I've become a little more realistic and scaled down in my workload. I was ready to drop from the amount of work I was doing.
And one thing I'm seeing is that a lot of what I was doing was non-essential. Some of it was almost ritualistic but with little necessity underlying the ritualization built into it.
I've reduced my workload and now I'm free to experience love in my life, to explore its conditions, to watch it rise and fall.
And, just as Matt says, I did justify why I wasn't taking the time to experience love and work with it. And now I feel abashed that I did.
And that isn't all that Matt says. He also says the people who distract themselves have not learned how to give love to themselves. Again here is the corrective to the chief error we make in our 3D ways of thinking: believing that love is something we get, rather than something we give ourselves.
The practice of drawing love up on the inbreath and sending it out to the world on the outbreath allows us to give love to ourselves even as it passes through us and out to the planet.
If we haven't learned how to give love to ourselves, isn't that job one? How can we make of the desert a watered plain when we ourselves are internally a desert? If we don't irrigate ourselves from the ancient spring in our hearts, how will we have the strength to help others?
Although some will take the statement that we need to love ourselves and turn it around in the service of selfishness, it's a basic and necessary preliminary step on the spiritual path nonetheless. And I mean really love. Blissed-out love. Transformational love. The greatest respect, appreciation and admiration for ourselves going along in its train. Just as we have for others.
Do unto others as we would they would do unto us. But also do unto ourselves as we'd do unto others. Extend the same respect and caring to ourselves that we do to others.
Not arrogance. Not vanity. Not ego. Love has nothing to do with those. If we really do feel and come from those things, the love we experience will be non-existent or shallow. Matt said that, when we love ourselves, it extends to every person on the planet. Well, I'm willing to have that be my next experiment.

As the Buyer and Seller proceed with a real estate transaction, it is important that they each understand their professional relationship with the real estate agent(s) and with the company.
Who represents who in a real estate transaction? In Utah, "agency" can be one of three things; 1) Seller Agency; 2) Buyer Agency and 3) Limited Agency. According to Utah State Law, "A Seller's Agent works to assist the seller in locating a buyer and in negotiating a transaction suitable to the seller's specific needs. A Seller's Agent has fiduciary duties to the Seller which include loyalty, full disclosure, confidentiality, diligence, obedience, reasonable care, and holding safe monies entrusted to the agent.
An agent may represent, through the brokerage, a seller who wants to sell property or a buyer who wants to buy property. On occasion, an agent will represent both seller and buyer in the same transaction. When an agent represents a seller, the agent is a 'Seller's Agent', when representing a buyer, the agent is a 'Buyer's Agent', and when representing both seller and buyer, the agent is a 'Limited Agent'.
Every real estate agent must affiliate with a real estate broker. The broker is referred to as a Principal Broker or a Branch Broker (if the brokerage has a branch office). The broker is responsible for operation of the brokerage and for the professional conduct of all agents."
Agency sounds very complicated but it doesn't have to be. Allow Bob Richards & Associates to answer your questions and be your professional advocates. They will provide you with accurate, honest and important counsel so you can make a proper, educated and informed decision.

NH transportation officials say ORT lanes on I-93 in Hooksett to close Monday for repairs
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) � New Hampshire transportation officials say the open road tolling lanes on Interstate 93 northbound and southbound in Hooksett will be closed briefly for repairs to a barrier guardrail.
Officials say the four lanes will be closed for a six-hour period from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. Monday.
The lanes allow E-ZPass holders to breeze through the toll station without braking while scanners automatically record E-ZPass data.
The lanes first opened last Memorial Day weekend � the fourth busiest travel holiday for the state.
The New Hampshire Turnpike along Interstate 95 also has open-road tolling at its tolls in Hampton.

This is not the first or only time that the not-so-highly esteemed Senator Kelly Ayotte has done this sort of thing or allowed it to happen. She did similar things to Ralph Holder -- another black man -- and also check Dave Coltin, a caucasian brother. Google their names and run them on YouTube to see Mr. Coltin's NH Supreme Court testimony. The Michael Holman movie will be up by noon and boy oh boy it presents a very compelling and accurate picture of glorified redneck racism 24/7.

Good Evening Brian.
You co-counsel's client is about to take a virtual beating.
Michael Holman is an experienced yacht builder who took substantial shit from Kelly Ayotte and John Pickering. The mother of his child ends up being a drug addict on methadone and they trumped up charges against Mr. Holman as she allowed his son to get struck by a car without a helmet and almost die. And you just don't know who knows whom, but hey that's how life works. Plenty of people work together to try to silence me but we have our network of people working toward The Good.
And Kelly Ayotte ignored all of it just as she did with Ralph Holder.... in fact did not ignore it but worked to protect bad LE.
Now I am going to tell it on YouTube.
And no she can't trump up any more bogus charges against me as she did a few years back when I was NAACP Legal Chair and tried to talk to her and that idiot prosecutor Bill Albrecht before I smoked them on those bogus charges leveled at me. I just saw David Horan at Court the other day and reflected on that little beat down.
You Sir, are swimming with swine, and you and I both know that extra footage I found of Nashua's Finest driving me out of the entire Crowne Plaza is going to resonate forever in the annals of First Amendment Free Press abuse.
The whole facade is shattered.

FreedomPop also announced that it will begin selling the iPhone 6S in October and it will offer financing on that phone at prices comparable to what Apple charges. In an interview with FierceWireless today, FreedomPop CEO Steven Stokols said that customers will also soon have the option to choose FreedomPop as the carrier when purchasing an iPhone from the online Apple Store.
Today also marks the official launch of FreedomPop service in the United Kingdom. The U.K. service includes 200 minutes, 200 texts and 200 MB of data for free each month.

FreedomPop plans to expand its free service to seven other countries within the next 12 months and over 20 markets by 2017.
In the FierceWireless interview, Stokols said that FreedomPop has nearly 1 million customers. He also said that FreedomPop, which currently uses the Sprint network, still hopes to offer service on a second US carrier sometime in 2016.
FreedomPop, which launched in 2012, is for the most part a data only service. Calling and texting are handled a custom app that uses VOIP and XMPP over the data connection. FreedomPop offers an extra cost, Android-only Premium Voice option that routes outgoing calls over cellular voice when the FreedomPop app detects that the data connection is too poor to support VOIP.

A Special Presentation To The Family Of A Soldier Who Went MIA In WWII
The family of a WWII soldier reported Missing In Action 71 years ago, received an American Flag commemorating his service at the West Haven Veteran's Museum on Wednesday, July 5.
US Senator Richard Blumenthal presented the flag, that had been flown over the nation's capitol, during a ceremony which also was attended by State Rep. Charles Ferraro and West Haven Mayor Ed O'Brien.
"A flag that is a token of our recognition and honor to the Gilbert family, and a flag that will grace this museum," Blumenthal said.
This all came about due to the persistence of a nephew that Lt. James W. Gilbert never met.
Terrance Gilbert, 70, who once lived in Orange, came across some boxes in the basement of his West Haven home and as he carefully went through all of the contents, became acquainted with his uncle, about whom his family never really discussed because their hearts were broken by the way they lost him decades ago.
After 9 months of digging, research, phone calls and working with the Veteran's Museum and his grandson, also Terrance, Terrance had a binder filled with photographs, documents, letters, telegrams, copies of pages from James' military school yearbook and so much more.
James was inducted into the Pennsylvania Military College in 1940, where, it appears, he made excellent grades, was a member of the football team and was a bit of a cut-up. He was a member of the final graduating class in 1943.
Terrance and his Uncle Kevin, of Orange — he runs the Memorial Day Parade with passion every year — learned that James had applied to West Point in 1942 and was accepted without condition, but before he was able to attend, the war in Europe was heating up and he graduated Officer Candidate Class, 1st Co., Third Student Training Regiment Infantry School in Fort Benning, GA, as a Second Lieutenant on Sept. 5, 1944.
In the box of treasures from the basement was a letter from Everett Scranton, one of the men in James' platoon, to Mrs. Gilbert, giving an account of what happened to James during a battle with the Germans.
James was the only officer in the foxhole with his men. When the Germans started coming at them the men began to retreat and James stood up and called them back, which is when he was shot. The men tried to fix him up with a tourniquet and he ended up in a hospital in France.
Terrance has documentation, some written in German, some in French, that the government attempted to find him, but the Hospital that James was in, was bombed and nothing of his, not even his dog tags, were ever found.
James was blonde with blue eyes and he spoke fluent German. For some reason, he was wearing German boots when he was pulled out of the trenches. Because of this, the Gilbert Family held onto the hope that the Germans would have thought he was one of theirs and had brought him with them to the other side and someday James would walk through the door after the war, but sadly, that never happened.
Aside from getting to know his uncle through his research, there is one thing in particular that ties the two men together. James was declared MIA on Feb. 8, 1946. Terrance was born on Feb. 8, 1947.
Terrance donated his binder to the West Haven Veteran's Museum along with James' medals, which he compiled with Blumenthal's assistance: the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Combat Infantryman Badge, American Campaign Medal and the WWII Victory Medal.
Upon request, the PMC Museum sent a uniform like the one James would have worn in the 1940s, to West Haven for the presentation. At a future date, the Museum in Pennsylvania will similarly honor Lt. James W. Gilbert.
A Brother Remembers
Over the years, Kevin Gilbert has dedicated his time to bringing the town of Orange a meaningful Memorial Day Event with a Ceremony at the Gazebo, then the Parade, concluding with a service at the Orange Center Cemetery.
Last year, he said he was retiring from the leadership position, but this year, he was back.
So after reading this story, you now know that Kevin lost a brother during WWII. He was just a kid when it happened so his emotions run deep when it comes to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and those whose fate is unknown.
Kevin has vivid memories of his childhood, and some stand out more than others at times like this.
He recalls what happened to many of his neighbors during war times. A man on his street was taken away and sent to a concentration camp for several years because he was Japanese.
In Kevin's West Haven neighborhood Armstrong Rubber was the hub of the community and one day, all the men were gone, they all joined the service. Women joined the workforce and took over where the men left off.
"I was young, I didn't realize what was happening," he said.
At 10-years-old Kevin was home when the Western Union man delivered the telegram informing his mother that James was MIA and again when the military presented his mother with two Gold Stars, one for the window, and another that was a pin she could wear. These memories are still raw in his mind.
His brothers Jimmy and Terry were born three years apart and they were older than him, so they "didn't grow up together," but he's lived with the angst of never knowing what became of James.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Park rangers were working to get one injured person to medical care.
The NPS did not identify the victim or injured person and said it expected to release more information Thursday

The Brown Center Chalkboard launched in January 2013 as a weekly series of new analyses of coverage, analysis, and practice related to U.S. schooling. We cannot declare that all of that is due to schooling reform but it has almost surely helped.

Movies We Like
Plan 9 From Outer Space
In the world of bad movies, most are boring and just unwatchable - lazy filmmakers just trying to slap something together to make a buck or ambitious filmmakers overreaching and missing, big time. Every once in a while a movie comes along that splits the difference and is so bad it becomes a wonderful experience. Director Edward D. Wood Jr.'s now legendary would be sci-fi flick Plan 9 From Outer Space has become the Citizen Kane of bad, so amazingly inept, yet so innocently earnest and good-natured that it's not hard to kind of love it. Literally every scene in its 79 minutes is filled with amazingly laugh-out loud, quotable dialogue, horrible acting, ridiculous special effects and utterly inane directing. Ben Hur might have won the Best Picture Oscar in 1959, but Plan 9 From Outer Space is way more memorable and special.
Originally titled Grave Robbers from Outer Space, a plot recap goes something like this, bear with me now...The film opens with a narrator ("The Amazing Criswell") telling us, among much gobbledygook, that what we are about to see is true. Then in a cemetery two gravediggers are killed by the zombie corpse of a woman they just buried. She is played by the thin-wasted, TV personality Vampira; her still living husband, known as the "Old Man," is played by the half-dead looking, one time Dracula sex-symbol, Bela Lugosi (unfortunately he died after shooting just a few minutes of random footage, strangely he was wearing his Dracula costume for some of it). Then a few moments after being introduced, Legosi's "Old Man" character is hit by a car and killed (we don't see this, the narrator tells us). Later in the cemetery Vampira and her husband, also now a zombie (but often played by a different, much younger and taller actor, actually a chiropractor named Tom Mason), attack a police inspector (obese Swedish wrester and Halloween mask superstar Tor Johnson). Meanwhile an ace airline pilot, Jeff Trent (Gregory Walcott), spots a couple of UFOs while on a flight. Later with his wife (Mona McKinnon) back home in the cemetery (literally his house seems to be in the cemetery) he tells her about the UFOs and somehow he's rightfully convinced they had something to do with the commotion in the cemetery. Then a gust of wind knocks them both over.
In a Robert Altman like ensemble touch, more characters and plot are introduced...Up in outer space the UFO commander Eros (played by an actor with a fitting name, Dudley Manlove) tells his Ruler (John Breckinridge, also known in some parts of 1950s Hollywood by his drag queen name Bunny Breckinridge) that they have put into effect "Plan 9" to get the attention of Earth's ignorant saps. The pituitary glands of the dead are being stimulated which is resurrecting them, though it only seems to effect three dead people as Tor Johnson joins the zombie married couple. There is also much hokum about the Pentagon, led by General Roberts (Lyle Talbot), trying to cover up the flying saucers, explaining the science of UFO activity, and listening to messages from Manlove. The Lugosi/Mason zombie chases Jeff's wife around her house and the cemetery and a bunch of knucklehead cops stumble around the cemetery (literally knocking over cardboard gravestones). And that's all just in the first act. Where it goes needs to be seen, not described.
Like Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, every frame of Plan 9 From Outer Space has been dissected, analyzed and studied, though for different reasons. Also like Hitchcock, Wood's career and personal life have been highly scrutinized; he's been the subject of books, essays, documentaries and even a Tim Burton film bio (Ed Wood). In the history of bad movies no other filmmaker has been as honored and revered as Wood has been. Bad movies come and go and some gain a cult following, but Wood has at least three films that could make the all-time great bad movie honor role, including his autobiographical transvestite love story, Glen Or Glenda, and his mad scientist epic, Bride Of The Monster, but hands down his greatest bad opus is Plan 9 From Outer Space.
Everything that could go wrong on Plan 9 From Outer Space seems to have gone wrong. Wood's attitude is that this is heavy, important material, not a quickie exploitation flick. He seems to be going for the grandeur of The Day The Earth Stood Still, but unfortunately every instinct Wood has seems to be the antithesis of how to make a good movie or even tell a coherent story. What makes it so wonderful is that sense of importance and Wood's love of movies, but everyone involved in the film is just completely untalented and unskilled at what they are trying to accomplish. Enthusiasm can't cover the complete ineptness that ends up on the screen, and what a beautiful horrible mess it is. Plan 9's reputation as the greatest bad movie ever made is fully deserved, and that makes it much more entertaining than the majority films that have been made since.


text: Territorial disputes between Hanoi and Beijing have led to public anger [File photo: Reuters]Vietnam has accused China of attacking its ships in the South China Sea, waters that have become a source of friction between the regional giant and its neighbours. The Foreign Ministry in Hanoi said on Wednesday that the collisions caused considerable damage to the Vietnamese ships, Reuters news agency reported. "On May 4, Chinese ships intentionally rammed two Vietnamese Sea Guard vessels," said Tran Duy Hai, a Foreign Ministry official. "Chinese ships, with air support, sought to intimidate Vietnamese vessels. Water cannon was used," he told a news conference in Hanoi. Six people suffered minor injuries as a result of the incident. China has yet to respond to the allegations. The state-run oil company, CNOOC, is operating a drilling rig in waters claimed by Hanoi. Jen Psaki, spokesperson for the US State Department, said on Wednesday: "Given the recent history of tensions in the South China Sea, China's unilateral decision to introduce its oil rig into these disputed waters is provocative and unhelpful to the maintenance of peace and stability in the region. "We are strongly concerned about dangerous conduct and intimidation by vessels in the disputed area." Hanoi's complaint follows an incident between China and the Philippines, after the Philippine government seized a Chinese fishing boat and crew on charges of catching endangered sea turtles in disputed South China Sea waters, prompting China to demand their release.

YouTube recently overhauled it's commenting system. The new system, powered by Google+, had its fair share of initial hiccups. The integration with Google's relatively new and ubiquitous social network was supposed to make verifying a channel's Top Fans a breeze and allow for a more relevant, less spammy, and easily navigable commenting experience. Things didn't go exactly as planned (though ASCII art experienced a brief renaissance). But after some tweaks, the 230,319+ YouTubers who were disappointed with the rollout seem to have simmered down.
Now, YouTube's released another improvement to its comments that will be sure to calm any who are still aggravated with the new iteration. Any YouTube creator can now click over to YouTube.com/Comments and be presented with all the comments on his or her channel aggregated into one central location.
"You can easily remove comments, flag comments for spam or abuse, give a thumbs up, or click over to the video watch page and reply," wrote YouTube Engineer Patrick Doyle on the YouTube Creator Blog. "Quickly toggle between comments that are published on the channel, comments that are pending channel manager approval, or comments that have been marked as spam."
It's a great new feature (if long overdue) that's sure to have a positive effect on a channel's interactivity with its fans, which, if used effectively, should lead to a noticeable increase in subscribers and views.

Aas Mek Verksted will deliver the new wellboat to Sølvtrans in October 2020. Image: Aas Mek Verksted
Norwegian shipyard Aas Mekaniske Verksted has awarded Hydroniq Coolers a contract to deliver its energy-saving, hull-integrated seawater cooling system to a vessel the shipbuilder is constructing for wellboat company Sølvtrans.
Under the contract, Aalesund-based Hydroniq Coolers, formerly Sperre Coolers, will supply its Rack seawater cooling systems to the wellboat. The Rack cooler differs from other cooling systems as it is integrated in the hull below the main engineroom. Here it safely reduces temperatures in the ships engines and other auxiliary systems through use of seawater but without taking up valuable engineroom space.
When we developed the Rack cooler, we combined the benefits from box and plate coolers, without the disadvantages of either system, said Inge Bøen, CEO of Hydroniq Coolers.
The Rack offers a maintenance-friendliness that neither the box nor plate cooler can compete with, according to Hydroniq Coolers CEO Inge Bøen
For example, we combine the energy and space-saving features of a box cooler with the standardised steel structure and constant and efficient cooling of a plate heat exchanger uniting all these qualities into one system. Additionally, the Rack offers a maintenance-friendliness that neither the box nor plate cooler can compete with.
The company will manufacture and assemble the equipment at its headquarter in Ålesund and deliver it to Aas Mekaniske Verksteds yard at Vestnes.
The wellboat is newbuild number 204 from Aas Mekaniske Verksted and will have storage capacity of 2500 cubic metres, equivalent to 375 tonnes of live fish. It will have an overall length of 69.69 metres long and a beam of 17.80 metres wide. Delivery is scheduled for October 2020.
The customer is Sølvtrans, the worlds largest wellboat company for transport of live salmon and trout. The company is in the forefront when it comes to closed system technology, an environmentally friendly concept which limits the danger of infection.
Our hull-integrated seawater cooling system reduces power consumption, fuel costs and maintenance costs. As such, it is a good match for Sølvtrans environmental profile, Inge Bøen added.

If you're planning to run a marathon for the first time, then you need to start training at least 12 weeks before the marathon date.
The biggest danger for beginners is the urge to over do it in the first couple of weeks. You MUST start at a level you can handle, and build up your intensity and mileage gradually. Increase your distance by 10 percent and no more for each practice run.
In this way you will prevent common injuries experienced by novice and expert runners alike and also ensure peak performance when the big day comes.
First-time marathon runners usually assume that the more practice they do and the harder they go at it each time the better, but overtraining can lead to shin splints, plantar fascilitis or runner's knee
Painful inflammation of the muscles around the shins. Otherwise known as MTSS or medial tibial stress syndrome. Very common in runners and athletes who have to jump a lot.
Runner's knee is also know as CMP or chondromalacia patellae. Although it's called runner's knee, you can suffer from the condition even if you don't exercise. It's a pain behind the kneecap. The main cause is muscle imbalance so that your kneecap or patella is not sliding over the groove in your thighbone when you bend or straighten you knee. It's probably causing friction and pressure to the cartilage on the undersurface of the kneecap. It is also frequently caused by poor exercise techniques such as wearing inappropriate shoes or if you're a bike rider, having a bike that does not fit your body and leg length.
It can be caused by running up steps, a steep hill or twisting your kneecap in some way. It doesn't help if your quadricep muscles are weak and you have muscle imbalances.
Read here about Plantar Fasciitis Symptoms and Treatments
These conditions are especially common for people who are starting out or those who haven't trained for a long time and suddenly push themselves too hard.
Forget that old saying: NO PAIN NO GAIN
Listen to your body - if you're feeling pain, don't assume that you should just show mental fortitude and push on through - you might be making things a lot worse. If the pain gets worse as you continue to run then don't carry on trying to ignore the pain.
So how to start training for a marathon if you're a total rookie?
If you are total beginner, start by walking or slow jogging for the first week - if you're pretty unfit to start with, even 10 minutes is a good start. If walking, aim for around 3KM or 1.8 miles but again, listen to your body. There is no shame in simply walking. Running can put a lot of stress on the body and it helps to build up some leg muscle. Don't forget to stretch before you start. If you're up for jogging, try a light, gentle jog on fairly flat ground avoiding a series of steep steps for around 30 minutes. Just make sure you don't feel any pain and you're completely gasping for air. Average walking pace is around 20 minutes a mile but no one is timing you at this stage. Our bodies are all different and you need to consider what your body is saying to you - is it fine - is it utterly exhausted - it is feeling strange twinges? Each time you run, do not progress by more than 10 percent in distance. Think about the distance more than your speed: too often marathon newbies said over-optimistic time goals their first time out - it'll be an amazing acheivement and you'll gain a huge sense of satisfaction simply from completing your first one! You don't need to train every week. Your body needs about 48 hours to recover from heavy exercise sessions. Some people get their rest and recovery time from running only every other day. Others alternate 'big' runs with 'light' runs or walks, or they cross-train on the light days e.g. with weights in the gym, or yoga.
As you plan your training program, there are other things to consider:
Get a running partner or join a running club
Having some social support can really make the difference between a newbie marathoner who sticks with it, and someone who goes with full gusto for a couple of weeks or so but then starts to drop out when the weather and the going gets tough. Don't be put off by running clubs and feel that you're too much of a rookie or 'not fit enough' to be a club - most of them have beginner sessions. If you're still put off, try an online training program - they are pretty sophisticated these days and can create customized training programs for you.
Consider the time of day that works for you
It is most common to exercise in the morning so that you get it ticked off and done without letting the clutter and craziness of the day ahead get too much for you. Maybe you're not a morning person, or you already have a long commute into work. Lunchtime might be the best time for you : in fact you can jog to your way to pick up your brown-bag sandwich you can eat at your desk later.
Treadmill or street?
I know many runners who prefer training outside on the street or local park versus the treadmill except in winter months. And here's a running newbie tip: start AWAY from your house and make it your goal to head home. You have to get home somehow so there's a built in distance and goal motivation. On a treadmill it's easier to call it quits and get off anytime. On the other hand, with modern treadmills, you can have distractions such as built-in DVD players or radio/TV tuners and you can set distance, speed and time goals which are easy to follow. And it's an all weather solution.
Here's to your marathon goals!!

Belly Cast
Last night we made a memory to last a life time…
I've done several casts for friends over the years… usually standing or sitting on a bunch of news paper for easy clean up. We thought being in the bath or in our case shower would make it even easier… so I figured it would be a breeze!
I learned very quickly that it was a whole other experience being casted!!
Showers of Happiness
May 15th, 2011 were showered with love and gifts for our littleBean!
Hosted by Alana's Parents (with help from our family & friends!) at the Children's Peace Theatre in East York.
It was a very wonderful day filled with family, friends and lots of kiddies 🙂
We felt so lucky to be amongst such a great community of people!
Here is the day in collage form – ENJOY!!
Easter in Kingston
We enjoyed a quiet Easter weekend with the family and took some belly shots along the way… Bunny belly at Grandpa Al's — where we enjoyed a fantastic roast beef dinner, complete with Yorkshire puddings, mashed potatoes, asparagus, & salad… followed by the most favorite Guinness cake – YUM!!
And then took a few more on a walk at Nana-Mo's 🙂 Where we indulged in a scrumptious lamb dinner, with mashed potatoes, rice & veg, asparagus, it was a feast for 4 as Dave was sick and he and Steph stayed home rather then share 🙁 Desert was something called death by chocolate… it's in the picture below!
BELLY SHOTS: Early Spring — Walk by the Lake
We live in the vast suburban sprawl of Mississauga and with all it's parks and trails and even waterfront spots — it's fun to explore!! Blair had never been to Port Credit so last Sunday after some shopping we decided to stop for a walk and a look at the lake & waterfront there.
Here's a collage I made (with a cross process filter) of the beautiful photos he captured of me and the belly bean 🙂
~~ Ultrasound part deux~~
Testing… testing 1-2-3…
Hemoglobin, Glucose & Ultrasound #2
Meeting a Midwife Mentor
Today I joined some friends (Melissa & Erin from her workplace, Sarah H. & her friend Karen, Sahar & Hubby) and a couple hundred other excited women (and a few men) at the Victoria College at UofT to hear a great talk by our mentor Ina May Gaskin!
Ina May is the pioneer of modern midwifery in north america and an inspiration to all who come to know her.
She has written several books that document positive birth stories and the awes and wonders of the female body and our abilities to have happy healthy babies NATURALLY.
Milestone Note – Oh my disappearing belly button!!
I consider myself to have a deep belly button… about 1.5 inches deep.
I'm aware that most women's belly button's "pop" during pregnancy… but not all… I was in denial up until now thinking since mine is so deep it surely wouldn't!!
But I'm starting to notice the once cavernous depth turning into a shallow hollow… and with 3months or so left to grow…
When or will it pop I ponder!!??
I have also notice I have a skin tag down in the depths of my belly button… didn't know that before… I guess it's right when they say you learn so much about your body and what it's capable of when you're pregnant!!
I still love all the changes and feel great — so here's to disappearing belly buttons and appearing stretch marks — somethings are just inevitable!
BELLY SHOTS: Winter
Babymoon – Mazatlan Mexico

Hi Ian, Your well researched recent additions to this question of soy consumption add to the slowly growing picture. I look forward to your future updates. While in vitro and animal studies may suggest caution, human studies must dominate the question when available. The HAAS study which you posted has been widely misinterpreted by the popular press, peer reviewers, and the authors themselves. I'm disappointed at the lack of competency shown by the authors and their peer reviewers, but take heart in the many good studies being done at an ever increasing rate. Here is my critique. As of late it seems to have fallen my lot to criticize several large observational and randomized trials. IMO the discrepancies I've seen in the papers are due to a marked bias on the part of the investigators against natural dietary supplements. The HAAS study that Ian posted doesn't seem to follow the pattern, never the less the rudimentary nature of the mistakes suggests to me some psychological pressure rather than plain incompetency, perhaps the desire to be published or to splash louder with the publication is the cause of the large number of serious mistakes. I first read the paper with a sense of doubt that the long standing custom of tofu consumption could display enough negative power to stand out against such a cacophony of variables. Table 1 first caught my eye because of the small size of the low tofu consumption group and the astounding fact that the authors had ignored the second dietary survey, basing the table on the results of only the first. In the absence of an explanation this surely smacks of "doctoring" data. At the very bottom of the table they give scores of the intelligence test. (CASI) It turns out that the failures of the low consumption group are only 2.0%. This is an impossible number since the denominator of the calculation is 38, the group size. If unadjusted it must clearly be zero, or some multiple of 2.6%, corresponding to failures of 1,2, 3 individuals etc. divided by 38. The paper says these values were adjusted for age, and education, (why only these factors among the many available?) but such an adjustment would leave the values at zero or raise them to some value higher than 2.6%, probably, judging from similar adjustments in the study to about four or five, which would take away almost all of the impact of tofu consumption. "Mistakes" like this are almost always indicative of data doctoring IMO. The hypothesis of the authors is not that the tofu consumption in the cohort is associated with lifelong lower intelligence, but with "accelerated brain aging". Figure two clearly shows them wrong on both counts. The median age at testing was 80, putting the first two bar graphs below the medium, and the last three above. A quick glance shows that the younger members of the hi-hi tofu group failed at about four times the rate of the low-low tofu group. As the members get older this failure rate is gradually reduced to near equality. Comparisons of the other two groups show the same trend but not as significantly. ACCORDING TO THIS STUDY TOFU ATTENUATES BRAIN AGING BETWEEN AGE 71 AND 93. Why were the hi tofu eaters so much less intelligent at age 71-75 than the low group? They went to grade school in Japan. People always (groups, not individuals) demonstrate a relative lack of intelligence when dealing with written or oral tests in a second language. A most pertinent example of this is the wives of the cohort. Those who went to grade school in Japan failed the CASI test at a rate of 2.7 times those who didn't (table 4). THIS HUGE MULTIVARIENT FACTOR WAS NOT APPLIED TO HUSBANDS. Had it been, it would have eliminated the difference in the CASI scores of the husbands at age 71, and would have destroyed the thesis of the paper. A much milder factor of 1.04 based on childhood years in Japan was applied to them. Why was such a different factor used? All I know is there would not have been a story without it. Why were the hi tofu eaters of about equal intelligence at near age 90? Perhaps, because they ate tofu. No other reason is apparent to me. This was the dependent variable after adjusting for all others in the study. The stratification of the group into two smaller groups (over 80 and under 80) would have reduced the P values by about half leaving results only of marginal significance, but still indicating with a probability of about ten to one that tofu consumption attenuates brain aging from ages 71 to 93. Table 2 gives the heart of the papers results, the OR for the failure rate in the CASI test of 1.0 (reference), 1.42, 1.74, and 1.62 for the low-low, the low, the hi, and the hi-hi groups respectively. The difference for these rates is miniscule and totally insignificant for all groups except the low-low one. The difference for the failure rate between the low-low group and the low group is significant, but the difference in tofu consumption is little more than answering once last week instead of zero times last week in the second dietary survey ALONE. That one serving per week of tofu can increase your failure rate in a test by 42% is just not believable especially in the face of such a small dose response and the many errors made by the authors. Speaking of which they have more of the wives going to school in Japan than were born there. (table 3), and they put the OR for going to grade school in Japan at an unbelievably low 1.04, they may have meant to add per year. These mistakes led to the apparent failure to adjust properly for the all important lack of schooling in English. The data are especially unconvincing since we are asked to believe that tofu consumption until age 71 accelerates brain aging and then begins to attenuate it after that age. Apart from the fatal mathematical and procedural mistakes listed above. The authors made two fundamental mistakes in logic. First they did not use the average CASI score, but rather the percentage of failures. This would have been the appropriate dependent variable only if their hypothesis were "tofu accelerates brain aging of those who are of low mentality, but not those of normal or hi mentality." And second their assumption that they had listed all the reasons for a lower apparent intelligence of the hi tofu groups at age 71 was based only on the logic that since that's all we can think of, there are no more. I can easily think of several quite probable ones. Contrary to the CASI data the relationship with brain size was most pronounced in the hi-hi group, being totally insignificant between the other three groups. I would guess that this was caused by lower growth due to the fact that soy protein is lacking in methionine, a deficiency of which is known to slow growth rates, but only at hi levels of deficiency. The high-high group, which show lowered growth would have been deficient to at least some extent in this amino acid, the restriction of which is also shown to extend lifespan. Buried in the small print is the important datum that tofu was related to a lifespan extension of the autopsied members of about a year and a half. In summary the data of the experiment, in contradiction to the author's claims indicate that tofu consumption in men extends life span and protects the aging brain from dementia, and further that the vaunted peer reviewing of world class medical journals has room for improvement.

It would appear that my Linksys SPA2102 ATA has stopped working. Over the past week we started hearing some cyclic noises on our phone and noticed that the noise was in sync with the power led on the ATA, which was flashing green.
Last night to troubleshoot it I unplugged the power supply and reconnected it after a few minutes. The power led then started to vary between different states of solid red, flashing red, flashing green and solid green. It kept going through this process intermittently, which naturally disconnected calls or did not pass through calls. I left it disconnected overnight and today I get no activity on the ATA, i.e. no power light.
I've measured the voltage on the power supply and as expected it shows 5v.
I'm assuming the ATA is dead.
I'm currently using a softphone on my android phone to receive VOIP calls.
Can anybody recommend another model ATA under $120? I was looking at SPA122 but a search on these forums indicated firmware issues.

text: Protests against the occupation forces are spreading The trend is best showcased in the Shia-dominated slum of Baghdad, once called Saddam City. Its residents had given the occupying forces a joyous welcome when Baghdad fell some months ago. But today, they are seething in anger at the occupation. Besides a change in name - the slum is now called the Sadr City in honour of a leading Shia leader, Ayat Allah Muhammad Baqir as-Sadr, killed by Saddam Hussein - its mood has changed as well. "We were happy at first when the Americans came. Now they should keep out, no one wants them around," shop-owner Jasm Kathai said. The upshot has been daily protests, which turned into open fury last Wednesday when a US helicopter appeared to try to knock off a religious flag from atop a mosque. Iraqis were outraged. "What they did to the flag was a grave insult to Islam. There will be consequences," added the shop-owner. In protests on the same day, one Iraqi was killed and four others injured. "They provoked this … they shot first," Waleed Kathim, a 25-year-old electric repairman screamed in rage. ''We were happy at first when the Americans came. Now they should keep out, no one wants them around'' Shia resident On Friday, chants of "Yes for Islam, No to America" rose from far corners of Sadr City. Rumours also circulated of a prominent local leader forming a militia to fight the occupying forces. Young men hung around the mosque of Shaikh Abdul Hadi al-Daraji who in a sermon Friday demanded a better apology from the US and compensation for the victims of their firing. "The people here have had terrible difficulties for years. After the war, we have the same problems. Nothing has changed," complained a shop-worker. "Look around you - the dirt, the unemployment, the lack of electricity, the thieves. If the Americans can't do anything, they should leave us to solve our own problems," he said.

Shoes are something that everyone needs, because you really can't get around on just your bare feet. Therefore, it is wise to spend a bit of time to make shoe shopping a good experience. Below are some timeless tricks that are sure to be useful.
Stick to a budget. If you are on a budget when it comes to shoes, do all you can to stick with it. Salespeople may try and pressure you into spending more than you can afford. Just buy what you need and stay under budget.
Never buy shoes without trying on both of them and walking through the store. You might get uncomfortable shoes if you don't try them on first. Try on a few different sizes so you can figure out which one fits the best.
Though the weather may be warm, you still should not wear flip-flops constantly. They do not support your feet the way they need to and could lead to ankle, foot or toe injuries. Limit the times you wear them to when you are at places that include water.
Always opt for shoes that give you the most comfort. The shoes you purchase should protect your feet. You can harm your feet if you have shoes that hurt your feet. If your shoes fit correctly and feel comfortable on your feet you can avoid foot problems down the road.
Finding shoes that fit well is of utmost importance. If you feel that you need to break in shoes, you should consider a different pair. Breaking in shoes can cause pain and lead to the development of foot problems.
Before buying a pair of shoes, walk in them for a bit. Take a stroll around the store just to make sure that they feel good on your feet while walking and not just when you're sitting down. You can feel rubbing occur. This will ensure you don't make it home with a pair of shoes you can't wear.
You should never overpay or underpay for shoes. Quality shoes made from durable materials can be expensive but they will last longer. Don't make the mistake of spending more than necessary on a pair of shoes "designed by" or endorsed by celebrities.
Shoes are an important part of your outfit, but you should not cause any damage to your feet just to be fashionable. Now that you have went over some tips that can help you to locate some shoes you can wear, you should have no trouble getting them. Good luck shoe shopping!

As I prepare for a busy month of conferences in Limerick, Paris and London, I'm thinking more and more about the role of sound in poetry, specifically the way sounding a poem links with music or song. I'm focusing more and more on what poets (especially Baudelaire) have to say about hearing or listening, with such lines as "écouter la plainte éternelle" from 'Le Jet d'eau' suggesting that certain sounds (poetic ones?) don't die away and that their effect on us is, somehow, permanent, or "Entends, ma chère, entends la douce nuit qui marche" from 'Recueillement', suggesting that it is easier (maybe?) to hear things that elude us during the noisy daytime if we bend our ears to what poetry emerges at nighttime.
The theme of the conference I'm presenting at in Limerick (the Tenth Annual Conference of the Society of Dix-Neuviémistes) is "The Senses". So my attention to the role of sound and hearing in poetry is apposite. But I've also been whetting my appetite for the conference by reading other blogs by fellow dix-neuviémiste scholars. Cheryl Krueger (University of Virginia) blogs about scents, perfumes, smells (I love her post about the smell of the Paris metro), and Hannah Thompson (Royal Holloway University of London) blogs about blindness and its relationship to sight (her posts about erotic braille, and about audio description, are fascinating).
Because I focus so closely on the relationship between poetry and music (and therefore, for me, sound, voice, performance), I often leave the other senses out of the equation. Interestingly, that's what Cheryl has also noticed: in her detailed attention to smell, sight and touch still feature, but sound is sidelined altogether (because of the intensity of the sensory experiences). For Hannah, detailed attention to senses other than sight (hearing in audio description, touch in braille) seems to redouble the effect experienced. And I'm beginning to wonder if this is, in some way, what happens when we spend time focusing in so much detail on the soundscape of a poem: do we feel it in double? By the time I get to the conference I'm co-organising in London on Debussy ("Debussy Text and Idea") at Gresham College , I will be working closely with the performers actually singing the song(s) I'm talking about (notably the soprano Sophie Bevan and her accompanist Seb Wybrew ). The more I explore the role of performance of poetry, the more intrigued I am by different performers' experiences of that poem. For example, as a pianist, Seb never gets to sing the words (or melody) that Sophie sings, so he never 'feels' them on his lips, or in his mouth, in the way that Sophie does. But does that mean he inhabits the poem's soundworld less intensively? My instinct suggests no, but there isn't a clear rationale for that yet, unless what is actually going on is that there are always multiple different songs (constantly) emerging from the poem (in a "plainte éternelle"?) which form a perennial "song-alongside" (as I'll clumsily call it for now) – in essence the heard experience of poem-as-song, or of poem-alongside-song. And what else could that "song-alongside" be other than, to use Genette's terms "le fait de chanter à côté", or, a parody (para + ôdè)?

Due to the coronavirus and social distancing mandates, we're seeing what we can do online. We've temporarily closed registrations until our adjustments are in place based on what our guest agents, editors, and workshop speaker is able to do. Once plans are in place we'll reopen registrations if there are openings in the remaining activities.
To offset Atlanta Writers Club costs incurred for providing refunds, $10 per canceled activity will be withheld for any refunds given except for the Conference All-Activities Package, where there is a total refund fee of $60 if a registrant cancels the entire Conference All-Activities Package before the manuscript critique deadline (see below). The $50 dues for membership in the Atlanta Writers Club (or registration fee if you don't want AWC membership) is NOT refundable–you will continue to receive all member benefits for the full 365-day term.
If you paid for a manuscript critique but cannot make it to the conference, to receive your refund you must cancel your registration through the Modify link sent to you in the registration confirmation e-mail–or notify Atlanta Writers Conference Director George Weinstein at email@example.com–no later than March 17, 2020; if you already submitted your materials for manuscript critique, you will not receive a refund but the editor's/agent's written comments will be sent to you. If you paid for a manuscript critique but do not submit your materials by the April 7, 2020 deadline, your registration for that activity will be cancelled with no refund given. To receive a refund for the pre-conference edit, you must be cancel by February 1, 2020, with no work submitted. For all other activities, to receive a refund you must cancel your registration through the Modify link sent to you in the registration confirmation e-mail–or notify Atlanta Writers Conference Director George Weinstein at email@example.com–no later than April 16, 2020.
Finally, if an editor/agent has to withdraw from the conference, we'll enlist another editor/agent to fill the withdrawing guest's place and we'll confirm whether that individual will suit you for your manuscript critique or pitch. If we cannot enlist a substitute editor/agent you deem suitable, and no openings exist among any other editor/agent you prefer, you will receive a full refund for the manuscript critique or pitch regardless of the deadlines. Likewise, if the Friday workshop presenter cancels and the substitute presenter will not address the same topics, you will be given the option to receive a full refund for that activity regardless of the deadlines if you don't want to attend this workshop with the new speaker and topics.
Payment Processing:
The Atlanta Writers Club uses a secure PayPal portal to process your credit or debit card payments. If you don't have a PayPal account, you can enter your debit or credit card information and contact details instead. This will ensure a secure, worry-free transaction on the Internet.
You must pay online as part of the registration process in order for your registration to be recorded. Due to bounced checks and failures to pay prior to previous conferences, checks will not be accepted and grace periods for payment will not be granted.

It seems as though ever since Hartford switched to the "Strong Tyrant" I mean "Strong Mayor" form of government, much criticism has been heaped upon the Hartford City Council for not exercising its powers given to them as a body under the new charter. This has been very evident, especially at budget time. The Council has appeared to choose a lapdog mentality when approving spending rather than using the pitbull powers they were handed under the Charter.
This became very obvious this week when it came to light that despite layoffs of City employees, some not far from the poverty level, Mayor Perez continues to build the Sovereign Nation of Perez, also known as the Mayor's Office. Even the titles are striking fear in the peasants as they were introduced to the Mayor's new "ENERGY CZAR" this past week. Don Blakelock has been making the rounds this past week and being introduced to City staffers as the latest Knight in King Eddie's roundtable. His official title is Energy Manager, with a salary anywhere from $90,000 to $105,000, depending upon which version you listen to. Ironically, some of these introductions to Blakelock were made to City employee union representatives as they were leaving meetings requesting givebacks from City Employee's to help curtail the budget deficit. I wonder how those talks are going now? Czar Blakelock's annual salary would save more than 3 Public Works laborer positions.
In addition, we were told last summer that Charles Crocini was leaving the Mayor's Office and his replacement, James Keaney had been hired direct from Digg's Construction (yes, that Diggs Construction). It was interesting that at the time of Keaney's hiring, according to the Mayor's Director of Misinformation Sarah Barr, that Keaney had negotiated into his city contract the purchase of a luxury SUV by the City for his use, heated leather seats, roof rack and all. On Friday I received documentation from Santiago Malave, the City's Director of Human Resources, that Keaney's annual salary is $150,000, more than that of Mayor Perez (or at least what he claims on the books, less countertops, jacuzzi's, steam showers, Ireland plane tickets, etc). Mr Keaney's luxury SUV (so much for King Eddie's promise of becoming a green city) purchased by the city could in itself have saved one laborer at Public Works or maybe even a teaching position.
Oh, and Charlie Crocini who was mentioned above as leaving city service to make room for Jim Keaney, don't feel bad for him as a retiree struggling to make ends meet in this economy. Mr. Crocini has been hired back as a "Special Assistant to Mayor Perez", only on a part-time basis though. He's "only" being paid $85.00 and hour for his services as "Special Assistant to the King" (I think they call them Knights). At $85.00 an hour,(yes, not a typo, $85.00 an hour) if he works 15-20 hours a week at the end of the year that could land him close to $80,000 a year. Not bad for a part time job, sure beats those unfortunate retiree's that have to work at Wal-mart.
And finally, on the City vehicle front, Clarence Corbin apparently is not one to be outdone. Last summer I raised the issue of city vehicle use and found that Corbin had two city vehicles he claimed for his personal use. A Buick and a new Ford Escape SUV.(I guess you can do that when you are the one running the fleet of vehicles).This at a time when the Hartford Police Deaprtment was assigning 2 and 3 officers to Patrol Vehicles because they were short of cars. Well, anyway, Corbin gave up the Buick and kept the SUV Ford Escape. Apparently as winter and the cold weather set in though, Clarence must have become envious of Jim Keaney and his luxury SUV with the heated leather seats, because Corbin ordered one for himself. It apparently arrived in the last couple weeks, a lovely shade of green just in time for St. Patrick's Day, and Clarence Corbin can now arrive at work every morning with the same rosy cheeks Jim Keaney has from his heated leather seats. (oops, wrong cheeks)
The Hartford City Council has the power to end all of this insanity. The only problem is, once you are neutered, I don't think it is reversible. We'll see.
