When talking to Dr. Alan A. Winter, New York, New York, it doesn't take long to discover he has great passion for his varied interests, be it periodontics
and implantology, or researching and writing novels.Read More
It may be down the shore but Island Bluffs is hardly a relaxing place to vacation. Island Bluffs is a fictional town similar to so many summer
shore villages. It is the title of Alan A. Winter's newest novel and it combines the Holocaust, a ghostly home and the experiments of the notorious Nazi "Angel of Death," Josef Mengele. Read More
Former Livingston resident Dr. Alan Winter is a long-time periodontist who has a second career going as a novelist. He has recently published his
latest novel, Island Bluffs, a thriller/love/ghost story with inspirations drawn from real life. Read More
Nine years into his career as a periodontist, Alan A. Winter decided he'd also like to try his hand at writing fiction. He began with a movie
script with a science fiction motif and ended up 31 years later with three, soon to be four, published novels... For Winter, who does the bulk of his research on the weekend, having time to pursue his career as an author is only part of the equation. Patience and perseverance help too. His latest novel, "Savior's Day", a suspense thriller that came out at the end of may, was percolating in his head for more than 40 years. He said it took him that long to figure out how to craft the components of what is a true story about an ancient bible that went missing for years into a modern fictional whodunit. Read More
Alan Winter, DDS, FACD, always wanted to be a dentist. But throughout his 30-plus-year career he hasn't let that get in the way of his love for history and writing. Instead of taking a more traditional route and pursuing a biological sciences degree prior to dental school, Winter earned a history degree, graduating from Rutgers with honors and earning a fellowship nomination.
...And in June, his third novel, "Savior's Day," was published. The suspense thriller, rooted in historical fact, is available through major booksellers, including www.amazon.com, where it can be bought as a hardback, paperback or e-book. Read More
Winter, following the cardinal rule of "write what you know," had set his novel in Livingston and laced it throughout with autobiographical elements.
His next novel, Snowflakes in the Sahara, was a suspense thriller that came out in September, 2000 that featured as a protagonist a forensic dentist named Carly Mason. Now, 13 years later, he has just published his third novel, Savior's Day. Winter's book interweaves fact and fiction in tracing the Codex of
Aleppo, the oldest Bible ever written, through 1,000 years of history. Read More
Phillip Hunter, 18, a 1993 graduate of Livingston High School, has just landed a job at a pharmaceutical company, and he's mapping out his future.

A 13th-century illustration of Islamic scholars debating in a library The Arabs were keen to learn about the world around them. Islamic scholars made great advances in astronomy, studying the movements of the planets and drawing up detailed star charts. They had realised that the Earth was round long before this fact was generally accepted in the Christian world. In mathematics, scholars such as Al-Khwarizmi (c.780–850) developed some of the methods still used today, such as algebra (from the Arabic al-jabr). In medicine, great doctors like Al-Zahrawi (936–1013) gained greater understanding of the body and diseases.
Islamic science and exploration
A world map by Al-Idrisi (with south at the top)
Some Muslim scholars and adventurers undertook great journeys of exploration, visiting different corners of the Islamic world. North African explorer Al-Masudi travelled throughout the Arab Empire and beyond until his death in 956. He wrote over 30 books, which explained what he had seen in Africa, China, Sri Lanka and elsewhere.
During the 1100s, Arab geographer Al-Idrisi travelled through Europe and the Near East, gathering information for Roger II, King of Sicily. He wrote a detailed guidebook for other travellers and produced an atlas of the known world.
Arab merchants pass Pharaoh's Island in the Gulf of Aqaba off the Sinai Peninsula.
An astronomical observatory, the Shammasiyah, was built in around 828 in Baghdad. It was the first modern-style observatory ever built.

Source: MYP: A Basis for Practice, IBO, 2009
The Middle Years Programme (MYP) is designed to assist students develop the knowledge, attitude and skills necessary to participate in, and contribute to, an information-rich and dynamic knowledge environment. The curriculum base is broad and inclusive, drawing upon established intellectual disciplines, with an emphasis upon the interrelatedness and interdependence of these disciplines in comprehending real-world phenomena. The MYP celebrates our vast inheritance of knowledge traditions, but its scope extends far beyond mere recall or even understanding. Both are vital capacities. But the MYP places a primacy on higher-order cognitive capacity – critical and creative thought, evaluation and analysis, reflection and action. The MYP values the application of knowledge in problem-solving, the skills of collaboration which might optimize this process, the insight and reflection on the beliefs and standards upon which we might judge the decisions we make, and, ultimately, the bases upon which we might take action.
The MYP seeks as a central aim to produce independent learners, who can adapt a variety of disciplinary perspectives to new and evolving real world problems. The MYP seeks to generate students who can with confidence approach the problems of the real world, either in an individual or group setting, and propose solutions with insight into implications and rationale.
The three fundamental concepts of the MYP
The IB Mission Statement provides the foundation upon which the MYP was devised. Central to this Mission Statement are three fundamental concepts:
Holistic learning the IB Learner Profile describes the type of student which engagement in the MYP might produce: an internationally-minded, world-citizen, who takes confidence in their common humanity, accepts responsibility for their planet and the stewardship entrusted to them and who is committed to producing a better and more peaceful world.
Intercultural awareness an international-mindedness, represented by awareness and exploration of, and willingness to engage with, other cultures.
Communication the encouragement of open and effective communication, with clarity and in a variety of forms, as well as to be receptive to communication, with insight and with empathy.
The MYP curriculum framework
The IB prescribes aims and objectives for all subject groups and for the personal project. The MYP requires schools to teach a broad and balanced range of subjects in every year of the programme. These are organized into eight subject groups:
· Language A (ideally the student's mother tongue – Arabic)
· Language B (a second modern language – English)
· Humanities
· Sciences
· Mathematics
· Arts
· Physical Education
· Technology
The diagram below sets out the interrelationship between these subject groups and their connection to the Areas of Interaction.
The Areas of Interaction
The Areas of Interaction provide the MYP with its unique core.
Approaches to Learning (ATL) represent the learning skills, both subject-specific and holistic, that students apply during the programme and beyond. These include subject-specific skills as well as organization, collaboration, communication, information literacy, reflection, thinking and transfer.
Community and Service considers the layers of community – family, classmates, school, nation and world - in which each student is immersed, and the reciprocity upon which this community is founded.
Health and Social Education examines human societies and the issues which affect them. Through this Area of Interaction students develop the insights and skills of citizenship and develop the capacity to make informed decisions relating to their personal and community welfare.
Environments considers the interrelationship between humanity and their environments. It extends to the interaction between differing environments and reflection upon the global environment.
Human Ingenuity examines the impact of human thought and action. This Area of Interaction seeks to examine the ways in which human thought – in its multiple forms - has influenced the world
The Personal Project
In the fifth year of the MYP programme students are engaged in a personal project. The personal project is a multi-disciplinary enquiry in which each of the Approaches to Learning, and the skills entailed, and at least one other Area of Interaction, are integrated into a piece of focused and self-initiated research and/or action.
Assessment of the Personal Project looks to the student's ability to work independently and to draw upon the Areas of Interaction as a frame of reference.
MYP assessment
Assessment in the MYP is both summative and formative. Ideally, formative assessment, as part of a developmental feedback loop to students, designed to improve performance, precedes summative assessment. Self-assessment and peer assessment is encouraged by the IB. Students and parents should receive regular feedback as to progress.
The IB provides subject-specific criteria for each of the subject groups. Assessment in the MYP is continuous. Assessment relates not only to knowledge outcomes, but also to thinking strategies and processes. Assessment activities are many and varied. They include, amongst other things, problem solving activities, debates, hands-on experimentation, analysis and reflection, tests and examinations. In assessing a piece of work teachers utilize the 'best-fit' approach. Teachers are asked to refer to the IB-provided, subject specific, performance rubrics. They should start from 0. As they read through the performance descriptors they arrive at a level of attainment that the work being assessed has not attained. The appropriate award is therefore the preceding level. There is, necessarily, a matter of judgment involved.
At the end of each assessment period, teachers are required to summarize attainment either as a Progress Grade or a culminating award. This is done on the basis of the IB-provided general description of attainment, recorded below.
Grade 1
Minimal achievement in terms of the objectives.
Grade 2
Very limited achievement against all the objectives. The student has difficulty in understanding the required knowledge and skills and is unable to apply them fully in normal situations, even with support.
Grade 3
Limited achievement against most of the objectives, or clear difficulties in some areas. The student demonstrates a limited understanding of the required knowledge and skills and is only able to apply them fully in normal situations with support.
Grade 4
A good general understanding of the required knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them effectively in normal situations. There is occasional evidence of the skills of analysis, synthesis and evaluation.
Grade 5
A consistent and thorough understanding of the required knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them in a variety of situations. The student generally shows evidence of analysis, synthesis and evaluation where appropriate and occasionally demonstrates originality and insight.
Grade 6
A consistent and thorough understanding of the required knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them in a wide variety of situations. Consistent evidence of analysis, synthesis and evaluation is shown where appropriate. The student generally demonstrates originality and insight.
Grade 7
A consistent and thorough understanding of the required knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them almost faultlessly in a wide variety of situations. Consistent evidence of analysis, synthesis and evaluation is shown where appropriate. The student consistently demonstrates originality and insight and always produces work of high quality.
MYP: A Basis for Practice, IBO, 2009
The IB Diploma Programme
Life in the 21st century, in an interconnected, globalized world, requires critical-thinking skills and a sense of international-mindedness, something that International Baccalaureate® (IB) Diploma Programme students come to know and understand.
The IB Learner Profile describes the type of student which engagement in the MYP might produce: an internationally-minded world-citizen, who takes confidence in their common humanity, accepts responsibility for their planet and the stewardship entrusted to them and who is committed to producing a better and more peaceful world.
What is the Diploma Programme?
The IB Diploma Programme is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepares students, normally aged 16 to 19, for success at university and life beyond. The programme is normally taught over two years and has gained recognition and respect from the world's leading universities.
The curriculum
IB Diploma Programme students study six courses at higher level or standard level. Students must choose one subject from each of groups 1 to 5, thus ensuring breadth of experience in languages, social studies, the experimental sciences and mathematics. The sixth subject may be an arts subject chosen from group 6, or the student may choose another subject from groups 1 to 5.
Group 1: Language A1
English and Arabic are offered at Standard and Higher Level. Students will need to develop their writing and oral skills and respect for the literary heritage of the English and Arabic languages. This is complemented by an international perspective given through studies of world literature.
Group 2: Second Language (Language B)
Students will have the opportunity to study English or Arabic at Higher or Standard Level depending on student demand. The principal aim for subjects in Group 2 is to enable students to use the language in a range of contexts and for many purposes. The courses focus on written and spoken communication, and reading comprehension.
Group 3: Individuals and Societies
Subjects included in this group are: Business and Management and Economics, and each will be offered at Standard or Higher Level depending on student demand. Environmental studies are also offered in this group at Standard Level only.
Group 4: Experimental Sciences
Biology, Chemistry, and Physics will be offered at both Standard and Higher Level, based on student demand, Environmental Studies is also offered in this group at Standard Level only.
Group 5: Mathematics
In order to gain an IB diploma, all candidates are required to complete a Mathematics course. In response to the different ability levels in mathematics, three distinct courses are offered: Mathematical Studies and Mathematics Standard, both at Standard Level, and Mathematics at Higher Level. The three courses are based on student need, catering for different abilities and levels of student interest. Each course aims to deepen a student's understanding of mathematics as a discipline and to promote confidence and facility in the use of mathematical language.
Group 6: Arts and Electives
Art and Theatre Arts will be offered at both Standard and Higher Level. Alternatively, students may elect to take a second subject from Groups 2, 3 or 4. The availability of the electives will depend on student demand.
The Core Elements
In addition the programme has three core requirements that are included to broaden the educational experience and challenge students to apply their knowledge and understanding.
The extended essay (EE)
The extended essay of some 4,000 words offers the opportunity for IB students to investigate a topic of special interest, usually one of the student's six DP subjects, and acquaints them with the independent research and writing skills expected at university. It is intended to promote high-level research and writing skills, intellectual discovery and creativity - resulting in approximately 40 hours of work. It provides students with an opportunity to engage in personal research on a topic of their choice, under the guidance of a supervisor. This leads to a major piece of formally presented, structured writing of no more than 4,000 words, in which ideas and findings are communicated in a reasoned and coherent manner, appropriate to the subject, It is recommended that students follow the completion of the written essay with a short, concluding interview - viva voce - with the supervisor. http://www.ibo.org/diploma/curriculum/core/
Theory of knowledge (TOK)
The interdisciplinary TOK course is designed to develop a coherent approach to learning that transcends and unifies the academic areas and encourages appreciation of other cultural perspectives. The theory of knowledge course is in part intended to encourage students to reflect on the huge cultural shifts worldwide around the digital revolution and the information economy. The extent and impact of the changes vary greatly in different parts of the world, but everywhere their implications for knowledge are profound. Theory of knowledge encourages critical thinking about knowledge itself and aims to help young people make sense of that they encounter. Its core content focuses on questions such as the following:
What counts knowledge? How does it grow? What are its limits?
Who owns knowledge? What is the value of knowledge?
What are the implications of having, or not having, knowledge?
TOK activities and discussions aim to help students discover and express their views on knowledge issues. The course encourages students to share ideas with others and to listen and learn from what others think. In this process students' thinking and their understanding of knowledge as a human construction are shaped, enriched and deepened. Connections may be made between knowledge encountered in different Diploma Programme subjects, in CAS experience or in extended essay research; distinctions between different kinds of knowledge may be clarified. http://www.ibo.org/diploma/curriculum/core/
Creativity, action, service (CAS)
Creativity, action, service is at the heart of the Diploma programme, involving students in a range of activities that take place alongside their academic studies throughout the IB Diploma Programme. The component's three strands, often interwoven with particular activities, are characterized as follows:
Creativity arts and other experiences that involve creative thinking
Action physical exertion contributing to a healthy lifestyle, complementing academic work elsewhere in the IB Diploma Programme
Service an unpaid and voluntary exchange that has a learning benefit for the student.
Creativity, Action, Service (CAS) encourages students to be involved in activities as individuals and as part of a team that take place in local, national and international contexts. Creativity, action, service enables students to enhance their personal and interpersonal development as well as their social and civic development, through experiential learning, lending an important counterbalance to the academic pressures of the rest of the IB Diploma Programme. It should be both challenging and enjoyable - a personal journey of self-discovery that recognizes each student's individual starting point.
Activities should provide:
Real activities purposeful, with significant outcomes
Personal challenge tasks must extend the student and be achievable in scope
Thoughtful consideration, such as planning, reviewing progress and reporting reflection on outcomes and personal learning.

In the summer of 2009 TACS introduced an adaptive sailing program. Adaptive sailing is a program that is inclusive to individuals with all abilities, including but not limited to those with physicals and/or cognitive delays, senior citizens, veterans, and those with critical health concerns. Easy access is the key to providing services for all, and the Cornwell Sailing Center provides barrier free docks, lifts and equipment. Community funding and collaboration has been necessary to provide the boats, instruction, and volunteers to run a safe and fun program.
Currently we have six Access boats (two 303's and four 2.3's). These boats were selected because of their stability and maneuverability. A joystick is used for steerage, the centerboard is very heavy and the sail area is limited. Weight of an unrigged boat is about 130 lbs. Click here to learn more about the 2.3s.
Site adaptations have been carefully assessed. Curbs, floors, dock grades, lifts, light switches, garage door openers, and transfer stations have been considered and designed to promote independent participation.
Accommodations, as needed, are also made for students using our regular fleet of boats, and individualized instruction. (See Up North 2 program alert: "TACS: adaptive sailing program") Scholarships may be provided to students as funding becomes available.

De natuurlyke historie der versteeningen, of uitvoerige afbeelding en beschryving van de versteende zaaken, die tot heden op den aardbodem zyn ontdekt: ... Uit het hoog- in 't nederduitsch vertaald door M. Houttuyn, met verscheide aanmerkingen.
Amsterdam, J.C. Sepp, 1773. 3 volumes (bound in 4). Folio (445 x 275mm). pp. (4), xiv, 64; (4), 1-184; (2), 185-484; (4), 236, with 1 double-page handcoloured engraved plate 'Marmer-Groeve na by Solnhofen', some engraved head- & woodcut tail-pieces and 272 hand-coloured or colour-printed engraved plates. Contemporary half calf, gilt ornamented spines in 7 compartments with red gilt lettered label, marbled sides (very minor restoration to spines).
A fine copy of 'one of the best illustrated and most complete accounts on fossils...' (Landwehr 95). "The outstanding work of this period is undoubtedly that of Knorr and Walch in four volumes ... The first volume was written by the Nürnberg collector and artist, Georg Wolfgang Knorr (born 1705, died 1761), and the other three volumes were prepared after the death of Knorr by Professor Walch of Jena ..." (Zittel pp. 21-22). The rare Dutch edition of the German original 'Naturgeschichte der Versteinerungen' (Nuremberg 1768-1773) with the same beautiful plates. Volume II almost entirely concerns fossil shells. "It is hardly possible to exaggerate the beauty and fidelity of the representations of the fossils in his plates. No such illustrations had ever before appeared, and they have hardly been surpassed since. By delicate lines on the copper plates the most minute intricacies of structure are reproduced, and by thin washes of colour the tints of the original specimens are represented.

'The extraordinary quality of the plates, representing the eighteenth-century continuation of the tradition of Dürer, led to an expansion of the work by Walch, as well as to French and Dutch editions... the detail and accuracy of Knorr's engravings not only made possible zoological classification but firmly established the distinction between fossils of organic and sports of nature' (DSB).

The Ohio University Multicultural Center in conjunction with the Ohio University Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Committee started off the month's recognition of King with an event hosted in Baker Center Multicultural Conference Room on Saturday, Jan. 16. The event was sponsored by Ohio University's Office for Diversity and Inclusion.
"Faith Acts" was a conversation between participants and religious leaders from the local and regional community. According to Tyrone Carr, the chairman for the MLK Celebration Committee, a breakfast is typically held on MLK Day to bring faith leaders together in discussion of civil rights, but this year it was decided that in order to open the events up to people from more diverse walks of life, most notably students, the event would be held in the evening and would take on a seminar style.
Rev. Mel Hoover, Minister Emeritus of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Charleston, W.Va., was invited by Rev. Evan Young, the campus minister of the Athens United Campus Ministry to speak on his perspective regarding "race relations" in the United States. About 15 students, residents and religious members of Athens and the surrounding area arrived, signed in and took a name tag.
Hoover and Young took the reins and led the group through their views on the problems the United States faces in race equality and the solutions the reverends see most fit. Issues of rising contention between the state and black communities, unfair treatment of black individuals and the historical significance of black recognition were the primary points of focus for the dialogue.
"I love to hear the stories of my black friends, but that's just the beginning," Young said as the discussion drew to a close.
The Office for Diversity and Inclusion hosts a number of events throughout the month of January recognizing King and honoring him by way of our national holiday. A full list of the sanctioned activities can be found on the Ohio University Multicultural Center website.

Alpha | Slamdance Review
By Don Simpson | January 29, 2015
Director: Stathis Athanasiou
Writers: Stathis Athanasiou, Mihalis Samiotis (Contributing Writer), Mihalis Kloukinas (Contributing Writer)
Starring: Serafita Grigoriadou, Tasos Karakyklas, Evdokia Chrysovergi, Silvano Olalla, Katerina Psychogiou, Savina Samioti
Director Stathis Athanasiou's Alpha functions as a contemporary presentation of the ancient myth of Antigone; but whereas Antigone was willing to sacrifice her life for her beliefs, Alpha (Serafita Grigoriadou) has chosen to conform to the tyrannical government's rules. A true bourgeoisie, Alpha focuses solely on self-preservation, yet she lives in a constant state of fear. When a fugitive surprisingly appears at her front door, Alpha's quiet and reclusive life spirals out of control…
Exiled to the dreary post apocalyptic landscape of a barren forest, Alpha is confronted with the decaying corpse of the fugitive. Alpha attempts to salvage an existence from a land that has decomposed into a junkyard under the tyrannical thumb of the Orwellian government, but every time Alpha appears to be making progress in her struggle for survival, a ghastly greek chorus marches in and beats her into submission.
The recurring sounds of military marches illustrate the posttraumatic fearfulness of Alpha's life, but it her guilt concerning the breakdown of her family unit that utterly destroys her. Just as the world has decomposed, so has the sense of family. Alpha's childhood — the screeching wail of a crying baby, the surreal images of a child in a rabbit costume — nearly cripples her with Lynchian nightmares, such as a spectre in a gas mask who circumvents the linearity of time, forcing her (or us) to relive her past in order to inform her present.
Sometimes mysteriously oblique, other times viscerally poetic, Athanasiou's film artfully discusses the inherent existential struggle of living in fear of everything. The puzzle-like structure of Athanasiou's narrative unfolds like a treatise on the impossibility of true democracy, due to the inherent lack of justice and the natural human tendency to prefer isolationism and self-preservation. Though, the world of Alpha takes place long after a democratic state has evolved into a militarist dictatorship, at which point anarchy seems like the only viable next step.

Apologies to those of you who have been eagerly awaiting news of EDNS and DNSSEC support in Twisted Names. I haven't really got a good excuse; just that I'm a bad communicator and I've been distracted by some mundane (and some exciting) non-computer activities. Sorry.
So, a progress report is long overdue and progress has been a little slower than expected, but let me try and compensate by promising a series of short updates and demos which I'll publish over the next few weeks, demonstrating what has been achieved so far.
Stay tuned!

I just got back from a 5-week visit to Japan, with a side trip to Nanjing, China, and in a week or so I am moving, from North Vancouver to the City of Vancouver. This is why I have been so silent on my blog lately... but I thought I had to write something at the year end to conclude 2007 and renew my pledge to work for peace in the new year.
My trip is just impossible to summarize by just a few words, but I will just write about some highlights of the trip, in a separate posting, and hopefully will post it in early January. Ideally some time in the new year, I will host an event to share my experiences in this trip. My priorities though early next year will be the move, and family of course. I believe that my peace centre, which will be based in my new home, will evolve in the right direction as long as I have my priorities straight.
The first year of Peace Philosophy Centre has been just incredible, and it is hard to believe we have done all that! However, I know that this is not the time to reflect on what I have done; instead, it is the time for me to be who I am. I cannot possibly imagine being who I am without the love and support of my husband, my children, and my parents and inlaws. I cannot even start to fathom where I would be now without the love, friendship and guidance of my friends, colleagues and teachers. I feel the interconnectedness of myself and all around me, and the Universe.
Thank you so much. Please forgive me for the mistakes that I have made. I am sorry if I caused any hurt. I love you the way you are. Again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Peace Philosophy Centre, based in Vancouver, Canada (est. 2007), provides a space for dialogue and facilitates learning for creating a peaceful and sustainable world. ピース・フィロソフィー・センター(カナダ・バンクーバー 2007年設立)は平和で持続可能な世界を創るための対話と学びの場を提供します。欢迎来到和平哲学中心!我们来自加拿大温哥华,我们致力于促进对话及建立可持续发展的和平世界。欢迎您留下宝贵的评论。Follow Twitter: @PeacePhilosophy / "Like" Facebook: Peace Philosophy Centre

Hi everyone! Before I start I just want to say that I'm so grateful for the response that I have been getting from this blog! Thank you for all the tweets and retweets and comments. I'm overwhelmed by the response and it just motivates me to continue this blog even more!
Anyway, onto the topic of this blog post. Going to see a psychologist for the first time. This can be a very daunting thing, I mean going to see someone who you have never met before and eventually having to tell them a lot of personal things about yourself that possibly you have never shared to anyone. Ever. Pretty big thing if you ask me, and its totally fine to be nervous! Who wouldn't be it's a big thing opening up to someone. From my personal experience it's best to go to your first session open minded with no preconceived notions. It's the start of your journey to recovery! Normally in your first session your psychologist will get to know you and you will probably just go over some personal details. Also you will probably get some background information on the treatment you will be getting (for me it was CBT.) It takes a while to get the ball rolling so to speak, but it's worth it. When I went to my first session I went in with my parents. Normally that's what happens if you are a young person like myself. It's just so that your parents get to know your psychologist and so that they know whats going to be happening. For me my parents were in with me for the first 3 sessions and then midway through my third session my parents left to go sit in the waiting room so it was just me and my psychologist. It was nerve racking. I was like a little kitten quivering in the corner like 'Oh my gosh, this is so scary!' (Haha not really, but I was very nervous.) I was pretty quiet for my first one to one session which is understandable and we just filled out some questionnaires so that she could gain a better understanding of the specifics of my OCD as everyone's OCD is different. It really is fine to be nervous about going to see someone your psychologist will expect that. They are not going to expect you to come in all guns blazing announcing your life story the minute you see them. It just takes time and as you see them more and more you will get a lot more comfortable speaking with them until it just sort of feels like a normal conversation. I'm very comfortable speaking with my psychologist now as I have been seeing her for eight months. It's great!
That's all I have to say on the subject I think… (I may of left something out.) All together going to see a psychologist is a great experience for most people and I highly recommend going to see one if you need some help or are struggling with something such as OCD. (You can go see a psychologist for many reasons other than OCD as well :-).) If you have any questions please leave a comment or tweet me! Hopefully I have gone over enough, but I shall add some more if needed! Thank you all for reading! See you!

At Clanimal, our mission since Day-1 is to improve
relations between humans and animals like the Pit Bull.
That's why our goal is to empower people so that we may live
in a society in harmony with all animals. This is what we
explained in our last editorial published couple days ago.
We have among other things explained why banning pit bulls is not the solution to that crisis.
On August 23rd, the Montreal Gazette published an article
that goes in exactly the same direction as Clanimal's philosophy.
We invite you to read the article (in English only).
What do you think?
Also, if you are looking to buy a dog (or know someone who does),
I invite all of you to experience the only true dog matchmaking quiz
in the world, it's called Dog's Choice where my fellow dogs
choose the human based on its personality!

Initially posted here:
Decided I'm at the point where a build log is in order. Still looking at wood only, but would like to toss 3D carving into the mix. Table is built from 2"x2" square tube steel, 1/8" thick. I will be adding steel strips for more thread engagement where needed.
Ordered linear rails and ballscrews for Y-axis (X-axis?, still haven't figured that out) from Fred at BST. Trying the 20mm Chinese ones. Saving the 35mm NSK surplus ones I ordered before for a later project.
I know I'll get bruised up a bit for this, but I am somewhat "designing as I go". Getting handier with F360 though, so I'll finalize a gantry design before going that far. Here's what I have for now:
Ordering epoxy to provide coplanar place for mounting rails. Gantry thoughts are something similar to what Joe Harris is building. Looking at 1.5kW water-cooled spindle with ER16, 4 bearings, real HY VFD.
1. More bracing needed? I am thinking of angled supports for top rails.
2. Any experience with the Chinese rails from BST?
3. What should I be thinking about now to avoid headaches later?
09-10-2017 #2
Hi Wallace,
I would brace the underframe a bit with either some vertical pieces mid span, or diagonal across each side.
1.5kW spindles often come with ER11 collet (max 7 mm), although some are ER16 (max 10 mm). But my advice is go for 2.2 kW and ER20 (max 13 mm) as it will give you more options. The extra power will help with the torque at lower speeds. They are all 80mm diameter for the main body so shouldn't effect your design.
If the gantry will ride on those side members is there enough clearance in Z movement to the bed? Check they are going to be high enough.Building a CNC machine to make a better one since 2010 . . .

09-10-2017 #3
If I did a couple vertical braces mid-span, you think I'd have to then add legs in the middle too?
You are dead right on the collets. I have an ER32 shank for my Bridgeport and was thinking ER16 was ER32 (powers of 2...damn computer geek :). I'll look at 2.2kW spindles.
Not sure I understand the Z clearance question... I'm planning on a beam gantry (if I have my terms correct), so wouldn't taller sides give me the clearance needed? Within reason of course.
10-10-2017 #4
Taller sides will get you there! And from what I understand that's perfectly alright for wood routing.
If you plan on aluminium then raising the frame sides are a more rigid solution then taller side plates for the gantry.
Glad to see that you are progressing :D

Also the braces that routercnc mentioned are most likely diagonal braces.
If you brace diagonally in as many directions as possible it will reduce flex in the entire machine when you are routing full speed later.

That's good in front to back direction.
Side to side could use some diagonal lovin aswell ;)
What epoxy have you ordered?
Skickat från min SM-N910C via Tapatalk
10-10-2017 #8
Yeah, you're probably right. Sigh, I never thought I'd get tired of welding!
I may get some grief, but I ordered Totalboat 5:1 epoxy. Supposed to be equivalent of West at about half the price. Actually, it wasn't so much that it was cheaper - they had a nice kit on Amazon with resin, slow hardener, metered pumps for each, and mixing containers. Specs have viscosity with slow hardener at 700 Cps, which is actually lower than West's 1000 Cps. So should flow as well or better.
11-10-2017 #9
Had a look on the web and wonder whether you've gone for just the Slow-Hardener or the Extra-Slow-Epoxy-Hardener which seems to me to be closer to the West system that the successful pours on this forum have used?
5:1 Slow Hardener ~ http://www.totalboat.com/product/51-slow-hardener/
• Excellent thin-film characteristics provide smooth flow-out and self-levelling ideal for coating and laminating
• Pot life @ 75°F: 20 minutes
• Set time @ 75°F (thin film): 10 hours
• Cure time @ 75°F (thin film): 1-4 days
Tropical Extra Slow Epoxy Hardener ~ http://www.totalboat.com/product/tropical-hardener/
• Excellent thin-film characteristics provide smooth flow-out and self-levelling ideal for coating and laminating
• Pot life @75°F: 46 minutes
• Set time at @75°F: 20-24 hours
• Cure time at @75°F: 4-7 days
11-10-2017 #10
I used reactive resins slow kit. Don't remember the exact specs for it but it worked real good :)
It was about half the price of West 105/209 and it shipped to Sweden without hassle!

Many people who make a minimalist home as their dream home choice. This is because the design of the minimalist home impressed simple, elegant and luxurious and comfortable to be in place.
For those of you who build a minimalist house with one floor, you can give a little of your land to be a garden. With the garden in the house, you can give the impression of spacious and more natural impressed. For elegant and innovative floors to match a wide range of architectural styles and for every fashion sense, you can use stained concrete Houston. You can also create a fish pond in the garden as a quiet impression on for you because the water from the pool can also provide its own coolness when the atmosphere outside the house is hot.
Before you build a minimalist home, it helps you prepare a mature planning first such as home theme, home design, and your building form. For example, when you want to make a home from the basic wood materials, you better consult with the developer or home design services provider first. And when you want to make a home from the basic concrete materials, you should know about the company.
Good observation and supervision according to standards should also be considered before building a house. Service providers or home design developers will usually survey your place first in order to determine the most suitable theme and shape of the building that fits with the location that you will make your home. Also, ensure regular and regular maintenance when the house you build is ready and ready for everyday use.
The Idea of a Minimalist House Model
Basically, a minimalist house does not always have to have the impression of luxury, you can also issue a simple impression on a minimalist home. This was evidenced by several models of minimalist home design that many circulating in cyberspace. So, what should be considered when you want to build a simple minimalist home? Check out some points in this article.
- Spatial Planning
Neat impression on every corner of the room must be in your house. Therefore, you must set the arrangement of every room in your home. Familiarize to all family members to keep the neatness and cleanliness of the house. That way, your house will still look neat and minimalist and simple.
- Roofs
Unlike the 2-story minimalist house model that has the impression of luxury, the roof of a simple house usually has more gentle shape. If you usually see a minimalist house has a sharp roof with a firm line, it will not be seen on the concept of a simple house.
- Sticking Placement
For a simple model of a simple 1-story house, you'll want to pay attention to the bulkhead in every room. With the bulkhead in your house, can provide firmness division of the room in the house. So you can adjust the function of each room wisely without making 1 room to be used as a multipurpose room.
- Horizontal and Vertical lines
Every line that is in the house, of course, has its own function and role. Similarly, the concept of a simple house. It's good you give a lot of horizontal and vertical lines to decorate the walls of your home. That way you can find clearer and firmer lines on each side of your home.
- Window Size
For a simple window minimalist home, generally still the same as the houses that have been built since the first. Yes, larger window sizes will definitely be chosen to give way to fresh air into your home.

Council bans charity fundraiser over square sausage
The revered square sausage does not meet nutritional standards according to council officials
Stirling Council has been criticised for banning a primary school's charity breakfast because the Lorne sausages did not comply with nutritional standards.
Pupils at Fallin Primary School, near Stirling came up with the fundraising idea to raise cash for STV's Children's Appeal.
Over £2.5m has so far beeen raised by the STV appeal this year.
The fundraiser planned to charge pupils for a cooked breakfast, in which rolls on lorne were offered.
Stirling Council was one of the first local authorities in the country to set nutritional standards for school with an emphasis on locally sourced and grown produce.
It said it was "committed to improving the health and well-being of pupils" including ensuring that school meals comply with nutritional requirements.
A council spokesman added: "To ensure these guidelines were followed, the school postponed the breakfast event, and the children are looking forward to fundraising for a good cause at a future date, which will be communicated to parents."
One parent said: "Honest to God, it's not like it's a plate of sugar. I think it's awful. They were trying to help raise money for a worthy cause and they stop that."
Lorne sausage, also known as square sausage, is usually made from steak and rusk and is a popular staple of the full Scottish breakfast.
On hearing of the pupils disappointment, STV Weatherman Sean Batty has offered to join a rescheduled Big Scottish Breakfast event at the school with all funds raised helping to support children and young people affected by poverty in Scotland.

Double-digit increases to the dividend on SBUX stock are worthy of your attention
Who doesn't like a juicy dividend yield between 3% and 4%? I know I sure do. And while a number of companies — like The Coca-Cola Co (NYSE:KO) and Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG) — sport such a yield, the valuations surely don't appear to be a bargain. I'm not here to argue the merits of these stocks though. Instead, I'm more excited by a trio like Visa Inc (NYSE:V), MasterCard Inc (NYSE:MA) and Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX).
Despite mediocre earnings growth, Coca-Cola and PG trade with respective forward price-to-earnings ratios of 21 and 22. Similarly, V, MA and SBUX stock trade with forward P/E ratios of 23, 22 and 23, respectively. However, they are often times lauded as being highly overvalued despite their strong brands and growth.
Specifically with Starbucks, a number of investors now claim its growth run is over. Why? Because its recent same-store sales grew less than 5% in the U.S. While 23 times expected earnings is not cheap, I don't agree that Starbucks stock is overvalued given its growth, brand and dividend.

A reminder: The Rev. Dick Begbie's "The Anglican Faith: A Layman's Guide"
I thought that I would repost this again because I think "The Anglican Faith: A Layman's Guide" is a very helpful book. One thing that continues to concern me is the level of literacy in theological and doctrinal matters among our laity. I know there are some very knowledgeable men and women among our laypeople – certainly there are a number of bloggers, for example, out there who are laypeople and from whom I have learned much. But at the same time we have other laypeople who simply have never been taught the true richness of Anglican doctrine and practice. Such is one reason I highlight the theological books you see mentioned here.
But it is also true that many (though not all) of these books require a certain amount of theological knowledge to even begin to comprehend them – in other words, one would almost need to already be a theologian to use them. With that in mind, I would like to highlight a PDF book available for download from the Latimer Trust, "The Anglican Faith: A Layman's Guide" by the Rev. Dick Begbie of South Africa. This book approaches doctrine by using the Thirty-Nine Articles, and goes article by article for laypeople; indeed, it was written expressly for laity. If you are interested in a book on the Anglican faith written for laypeople, please give "The Anglican Faith: A Layman's Guide" a look.

Brother Jim was in NE Arkansas last week and sent me some church photos. This is the Methodist church in Rector, built in 1915.
He took some interior shots as well.
I like the subdued earth tones in the stained glass.
In my travels around the state of Arkansas, I tend to be drawn to houses of worship. There is an amazing diversity of architectural styles when it comes to churches, and I try to record that diversity here. Please excuse my amateur bumbling with a camera; I'm learning as I go along.

Lady in the Red Hat Sitting in the Church Pew
Now, lest you think I would forget about you on my treasure hunts, you can just forget that nonsense! Look at these fabulous pieces I found for the boutique. Are these not the cutest, most precious vintage doll hats you have ever seen? The blue bonnet is for a big baby doll and the red fashion hat is for one of those gorgeous old 16" fashion dolls. Those both have gorgeous old shabby flocked and velvet flowers on them. Their large size makes them perfect for display. Can you see one perched on a stack of old children's book? I also found some pretty vintage millinery flowers too which I am feverishly trying to list in between writing this post. :)
Have you found something wonderful on your treasure hunts lately? Have a great week and I most likely will see you for Pink Saturday.

It stands perfectly in that side of you home :-) And with the story that goes with it - it is even more darling to own such furniture. Bet it brings smiles whenever you walk in or out the door. :-)
(Love your garden cloche. That's a first as I always see cloche's in glass and displayed indoors.)

Such a lovely bench! You are so lucky!
I have a larger one from Europe that I love. Alas, I don't have the entry way to fit it.
I also love those little doll hats ... so sweet.
Would love to feature your Halloween tomorrow or next day depending on how many visits I can get in today. Let me know.

Hi Lynn
So glad you dropped by. Did you look at my other posts by chance? I have so many great pictures of my girlfriend's visit, I would love you to look at them when you get a chance.
As far as your pink shoe tree... I LOVE IT. Your saucy little dress... go find some boots. I found some cool red boots in a consignment store & I sure feel "hot" in them... not as in hot flash either lol
I adore your "new to you" bench & those adorable hats.
I've missed you.
Love Claudie

Ooh, Lynn. I love it. We have an old oak church pew on our upstairs landing, and I love it, too. We've had it about thirty years, but for the life of me, I can't remember where we found it. I know we were living in Fort Lauderdale, but that's it.
I hope you enjoy yours.

I just spotted your " I'm not old I'm an Antique"... cute, but your not old at all or an Antique to me Lynn. We could hang out and have sooooo much fun, and get in trouble lol
As for "how far am I from Manhattan"? Well first I'm a Canadian, right? I live in Ontario, which is border to Quebec, near Montreal. We cross the bridge in Cornwall, Ontario, which is border to Messena N.Y. We drive through the Adirondacks, to Albany and on to Manhattan. All in all it's about an 8 hour drive. We stopped and had a lovely evening and night in Lake Placid (we go right through there also). Then to Cracker Barrel, my fav breakfast place (we don't have them here) and from there it's about 3 hours to the city.
I'm sooooooo jealous that your going. We had splendid weather. It will be like here... nice and sunny, but very cool evenings. So bring a few woolies, just make sure they are high in fashion lol or just buy a pashmina shawl, there only 5 bucks each. Get all the colors lol
Have fun and if you want to go to "the best" Italian rest. in Soho let me know. I guarantee you WILL NOT be disappointed.
Talk to you soon
Love Claudie

Lynn, great score on that beautiful church pew!!! Pardon the pun, but it's heaven!
I'm so delighted that you "know" Terry Grahl -- I think she came in a very close second, but at least she beat out the glitter people -- not that I have anything against glitter. LOL

That bench is to die for. The arms have such a wonderful curve. I also have been searching for one for years so hope my luck is as good as yours. Thank you for sharing.

Oh my gosh!! You are so lucky!! How great is the bench! I LOVE it!! The color, the charm, the size, the overall "look", it's perfect!!
- Monday, September 21, 2009
Oh boy! I share your joy over such a find. What a deal, too. We just painted our church pew oyster white (with milk paint) last weekend. Wish it only cost $40!

Engagement Session: Sue + Ryan Sneak Peak
Yesterday I went to meet with Ryan and Sue to nail down the details about their shoot. While I was meeting with them, they wanted me to meet their dog Ginger since it was important to them to have her be part of their shoot. I brought my camera to see how Ginger would react to the camera, so there is a part one to their e-session. We had a good time just hanging out and playing with the dog. I look forward to showing the full e-session after their booked date!

Trades media acts as a bridge between businesses and major search engine, Google. Businesses enjoy prominent ranking with a listing which emphasizes their business name.
In most instances, when a customer searches for a product or service online, within the 'search box' they would normally type a generic keyword search in a locality nearest to them. E.g. 'BMW Specialist in Greensborough', 'Window Cleaner in Donvale', 'Carpet Installation in Doncaster East', 'Truck Repairs in Coburg', etc. Trades media is able to provide a boost in prominent ranking to businesses that subscribes to our unique online advertising solution.
Here's an example on how it works:
Step 1 : Potential customer types in generic keyword and locality into Google search engine.
Step 2 : Search Result appears prominently in the organic section on Page 1 of Google.
Step 3 : One Click Process to an exclusive full page advertisement in LocalitySearch.com.au with complete business contacts, description of services offered, pictures, hyperlink to business website and page view counter/tracker.
Get ahead of your competitors today!

Jody Feagan is the Founder and former Director of the San Miguel Writers Conference & Literary Festival in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico,
which has featured such literary luminaries as John Berrendt (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil), Barbara Kingsolver (The Poisonwood Bible), Margaret Atwood (The Handmaid's Tale) and Cheryl Strayed (Wild). She still remains in an advisory position to the San Miguel board as well as having served on the board of the Aspen Writers' Network.
Jody has been producing independent writing workshops in the US and Mexico since 2004 and has been a writer's advocate through her extensive network industry-related professionals. When a friend and writing coach reached out to Jody to work with one of her clients in promotions, it was an easy and natural move for Jody to help authors market themselves and their work. And it made sense for Jody to do the same for artists.
For several years Jody has worked with Art Santa Fe, the international contemporary art fair now in its 16th year. In doing so, Jody has developed lasting relationships with many artists helping them further their career and broaden their reach through social media platforms as well as various marketing channels.
Jody's talent is that she is a true connector. And she can help you to connect with where you want to go and what you want to achieve.

As they did against Chelsea, Manchester United have nicked a fortunate win against a superior team. Short-term elation for them, but for the long haul, Liverpool look a better bet to finish second come the end of the season.
- The Times
Now before anyone says that this is just another sour grapes Liverpool rant, and that the British press are bias against Manure, well, let it be known that this IS what I thought of the game on Sunday, and that I STILL think we're gonna finish above Manure this season.
As Tigerjoe would say: PFFFFBT!!!!!
Anyway, go to this blog here: Verdict from the Press - ManUSA v Liverpool and see what most (supposedly bias) observers had to say about the game.
Thanks to the guys at Unforseeable for the summary of the reports!
PS: Oh, and this quip from Soccernet's Team of the Week cracked me up:
Alex Ferguson: 'He is 6ft 4in, has a big head and great spring, so there is no reason why he shouldn't get more goals.'
Ferdinand? A big head?

Blessed with the ability to score and set up goals in abundance, Miralem Pjanic has established himself as a key creative force in the Bianconeri midfield ever since signing from Roma in 2016.
Whenever he steps up to take a free-kick, whatever the distance, Pjanic looks like scoring. Needless to say, the Bosnian has produced some real gems in the black and white stripes of Juventus.
With a feather touch and stunning range of passing, the midfielder has the technique to carve open opposition defences from anywhere in the final third and also boasts top-drawer dribbling skills.
Pjanic made his first steps into professional football with French side Metz, with whom he made his debut as a 17-year-old in 2007 having joined the club as a junior from Luxembourg outfit Schifflange.
Eventually impressing with Ligue 1 giants Lyon, making 122 appearances for the club, the Bosnian headed south to continue his career in Serie A with Roma, where he would be a key component of the team for five whole seasons.
His level of consistency in the Italian capital would be sign of things to come in Turin, where he has developed into one of Europe's outstanding midfield forces.

It's important to know where you want to go, otherwise, you'll get lost. You may get lost anyways, but if you have some kind of an idea – some kind of vision, then you can begin to plan a route to get there.
Most people (I'm assuming) want to be passionate lovers. They want to demonstrate their devotion, their adoration, their desire to please their partner. In a D/s dynamic, they want to demonstrate their Dominance and their submission.
You have to know where you're at. What you want. How you want it. Where you want to go. That takes honest communication. It also takes a lot of trust.
You'll never truly be "Fuck Yes" lovers if you don't talk. If you don't share your passions and desires.
You'll never get there without going through the "Okay, I'm Ready" – it's a process. And while you'll constantly be emerging, you have to make some movement. That requires some guidance and willingness.
And many things begin with a few "Oh My God" moments. You're embarking on something new – most people don't experience kink of any sort the first time without this phase.
Whether it's a facial, anal, water sports, wax, clamps, or any other kink – to include non-intercourse areas as well, it's a process. Life isn't like porn – you don't just slam your (seemingly non lubricated) cock into her ass and expect her to have a squirting orgasm from it on the first try.
But you know that you want her to eventually orgasm through anal sex (or whatever your goals are)- so develop a way to get there. Because once you get to the "Fuck Yes!" phase it really is fucking incredible.

If you're like me (chances are you're much cooler), you've attended, planned and/or led many conferences over the years. Of those that have had the biggest positive impact on attendees, what was it that made them stand out? For me, this blog post from Seth Godin clearly identifies key characteristics of such events (no surprise there…that's why he's one of the most influential bloggers in the world, while I'm a…financial analyst).
As you read his post, reflect on how well his descriptions apply to the event(s) you lead, particularly those held on a recurring basis. Then ask yourself the following questions:
- "If everything is on the line, if in any given moment, someone is going to say or do something that might just change everything." Will the freedom of interaction, personalities of faculty and breakout leaders, ideas offered, challenges discussed, surprises planned (or unplanned), and event venue produce the kinds of interactions and exchange of ideas that have to be experienced in person, in real-time, in the moment they occur? To use an entertainment analogy, are your events "must-see TV" or just additional episodes drawing out the lifespan of a show which once had promise but now just primarily resides on your DVR?
- "If there's vulnerability and openness and connection…at most events, people are on high alert, clenched and protective." Again, how free is the flow and exchange of ideas, both in formal presentation settings as well as informal gatherings? How generous are your presenters and faculty in terms of listening to your attendees' ideas, respecting the vulnerability behind their questions, and responding with genuine connection rather than rote, impersonal responses which exterminate rather than germinate ideas? Your attendees will notice, and your event will earn the reputation it deserves (whether good or bad).
- "If there's support…at most events, competitiveness born from insecurity trumps mutual support." What will it take for each attendee to "win"? For all attendees to "win"? For all attendees and presenters/speakers to "win"?
- "If it's part of a movement…if the attendees are part of a tribe that goes beyond demographics or professional affiliation." If you're familiar with Godin's ideas, you're likely aware of the value he places on tribes. Does your event promote, nourish, and maintain a tribal culture? If so, it will increase the attendee return rate as well as draw new participants through passionate word of mouth advertising.
Of the events with which we're involved, an example of one that fits Godin's criteria quite well is the Blue Ridge Mountain Christian Writers Conference (check out the event here). How well does your event meet Godin's standard? And, more importantly, what criteria do you use to judge whether a conference works or not?
