A young girl confronts her own death in the river city of Zombay with its ancient magic and new gearwork in a stand-alone companion to National Book Award–winning Goblin Secrets (2012).
Young Kaile, the baker's daughter, is separated from her shadow when she lets the bone flute given her by a goblin performer play its own tune. "You might…try to discover whose bone that once was," the goblin tells her. But Kaile is forced to leave her home—she watches as her family holds a funeral for her and refuses to acknowledge her presence, convinced that the unshadowed are newly dead. Kaile, with Shade, her shadow, in tow, seeks the secret behind the bone flute. For some reason, it will only reliably play the well-known tune about a girl rumored to have drowned herself for love by leaping from the bridge into the River. And the impending River flood sounds a threatening note through everything in the city, creating the kind of urgency that has a sailing captain telling Kaile "we haven't time for pissing and whistling." When at last Kaile confronts the River's power and the collective grief of the bones of the drowned, she saves herself along with the bridge that spans the River and connects the two halves of Zombay.
Alexander's storytelling is compelling and clever, and this tale of courage is by turns humorous, poignant and convincing. (Fiction. 9-12)

My Baby's Growing Up
by Heather at brownrobin.blogspot.com
My Baby's Growing Up
I made this quilt for my daughter to use for naptime at school. I combined some of my favorite fabrics with pieces from many of her baby clothes, and even a piece of corduroy from a well loved shirt of mine. There's some thrifted vintage fabric tucked in there as well.
The pattern is from Aardvark Quilts and is called "Squares Squared." This pattern is not a baby quilt pattern but is for a 40" x52" quilt which seems the perfect size for young ones to continue to use as they grow. I loved working with it and it's great fun to create. There are many opportunities for tiny pieces of scrap that you may have been holding onto for a while, plus favorite fat quarters from your stash. This quilt is machine pieced and I free motion quilted it with lots of flowers, hearts, and scrolls in a periwinkle thread. It was satisfying because it came together so rapidly. I worked on it for several naptimes, but I work quickly. The straight line cutting and flexible design options make it an enjoyable pattern for beginner and intermediate.

I can almost hear the tumbleweeds drifting across my neglected little blog. Blogging about your year abroad requires a fine balance between writing and doing. Of course you can fill pages and pages with new photos and chitchat about the customs of the country you're falling in love with, but not at the expense of going out and living in it. This week has been one of my busiest times since arriving in Molfetta. Since I wrote about my trip to Giovinazzo on that sunny mid-February weekend, I have:
– Been to Rome for the second time. I was unexpectedly invited on a school trip dedicated to remembering the Holocaust and discovering the history of the Jewish community in the capital city.
– Visited a Norman castle in a town called Sannicandro di Bari, and then eaten my body weight in Puglia's culinary delights
– Tried Aquagym for the first time and almost died
– Been to Bari to see Saving Mr Banks: how bizarre to hear the songs of Mary Poppins sung in Italian
– Picked a load of oranges in the sun, spring is officially on the way.
All of these experiences have been great and soon I hope that I'll have a spare moment to document them properly. Tomorrow morning, I'm off to Venice for a potentially rainy Carnival weekend: masks at the ready, it's going to be a great trip. And THEN, the very afternoon I get back to Molfetta, my family will be arriving. They'll tumble out of the car after a 13 hour trip from Mondovì, dogs and all: the following days will be my chance to show off how beautiful this region is and to spend time with them all.
Until then, here are some photos of my every day life in Molfetta:

A highly visible and well-liked legislator is effective, popular, and unbeatable come election time. While one of the key responsibilities for a legislator is constituent communications, it's often the part of the job that gets the least amount of attention.
Cor Strategies can fill that gap. We will create an ongoing relationship between you and your constituents, building a public image that strengthens your position within your district and lays a foundation for your next election.
With outside forces constantly looking for their next target, it is more important than ever for legislators to connect with the voters in their districts. We will foster these relationships to make constituents into friends and voters into fans.
Building Your Brand
Quick: name one successful business or product that does not have a recognizable brand.
Your brand is the foundation for all your current and future efforts. Without a brand that embodies your mission, clearly conveys your message, and positively defines your public image, all future efforts will falter.
Our experienced brand development team will work with you to develop your brand: a logo, colors, graphic elements, and a theme to serve as the basis for your messaging. We then help you implement this brand.
Developing an Engaging Message
Simply communicating more frequently with your constituents will not produce the desire results. What you say, and how you say it, is the key to success. It does you no good to discuss issues about which the voting public cares very little, and it does you even less good to do so in a way that does not gain you favor.
Our expert team of communicators will continually produce talking points on the key issues driving the public's attention. We will then help you push out this messaging through all available channels.
Talking Directly with Your Constituents
There are three key ways we will help you talk directly with your constituents on a regular basis. First, via the standard channels: website stories, social media posts, and letters to the editor.
Second, we will utilize telecommunications services to help you talk with your voters. We will put out a robocall to all your constituents twice a quarter, informing them of important events and votes. We will also conduct a tele town hall twice a year, allowing your voters to connect with you directly.
Third, we will implement a hyper-targeted and personalized email program allowing you to regularly be in front of your constituents. We develop an email list of all right-of-center voters in your district, create a dynamic email template, and give you access to our proprietary system that learns the tendencies and issue preferences of your constituents so your communications to them earn the best possible results.
Average price for Political Concierge Package is $2000/mo for State Representatives and $3000/mo for State Senators. Initial setup cost per member is $2,000. Contact us today for an exact proposal for your district.
Note: As services are focused on constituent outreach, program costs can be paid through your government budget. Campaign funds may be used to augment efforts if desired.

Quiet night for Brits in Cannes
A subdued Cannes film festival has come to a close with the top prize – the Palme d'Or – going to the Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul for his mystical movie, Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives.
The second-placed Grand Prize went to Xavier Beauvois's drama, Of Gods and Men, about the killing of seven French monks in Algeria in the 1990s.
The third most prestigious honour, the Jury Prize, went to A Screaming Man, by Mahamat-Saleh Haroun, from Chad.
Despite two British films being among the competition entrants, neither Mike Leigh's Another Year nor Ken Loach's Route Irish came away with any prizes. The nine-member jury, headed by the director Tim Burton, also bypassed the only American film in the competition, Doug Liman's Fair Game – about the real life CIA agent Valerie Plame.
Other awards of the night saw Juliette Binoche collect the Best Actress prize for her role in Abbas Kiarostami's Certified Copy. And the Best Actor award was shared between Spain's Javier Bardem for Alejandro González Iñárritu's Biutiful and Elio Germano for La Nostra Vita.
Known more for his acting, Frenchman Mathieu Amalric won the Best Directing award for On Tour.
South Korea's Lee Chang-dong won the Best Screenplay prize for Poetry, about a grandmother coping with the onset of Alzheimer's disease.
The Un Certain Regard side-bar of generally more arty films was won by another South Korean, Hong Sangsoo, for his drama Ha Ha Ha.
The Camera d'Or – for the best first-time filmmaker at Cannes – went to Michael Rowe, for his romance Leap Year, which was screening as part of the Directors' Fortnight strand.

The project 'Economic Development for Peace and Stability in Plateau State' is closely linked to and implemented together with the GIZ-SEDIN Programme which has been operating in Plateau since April 2011 and a predecessor programme since 2009, both promoting micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Both are implemented jointly by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. Due to this linkage, it is possible to have synergy and leverage effects of implemented activities.
The project is funded through the 'Instrument for Stability (IfS)' fund by the European Union. Furthermore the project collaborates with two NGOs, Apurimac and Search for Common Ground, which are implementing the other two IfS-funded projects in Plateau State.

A lot of Flashman in the Great Game reads more like conventional historical fiction than the irreverent romps we've come to expect from Harry Flashman. Chapter 8 is no exception. It covers the siege of Cawnpore and does it pretty straightly.
Harry twisted his ankle on the way into Cawnpore and in a turn of unFlashmanlike behaviour he digs in with everyone else and tries to do his duty. He even comments on it. Ordinarily the slightest injury gives Harry the excuse to take to his bed, and complain loudly about it. Admittedly everyone in Cawnpore was in such dire straits that this was impossible, but he doesn't even whine about it. He doesn't take the opportunity to even flirt with pretty young Bella Blair. He does consider going native and making a break for it, but reasons that if he's caught by the pandies it'll be worse than what he's going through in Cawnpore.
He does meet up with East, and somehow manages to make it look like East lit out on him on the way out of Russia, and did the dirty on him. In some ways he did, but Flashman makes it sound a lot worse than it was, and effectively ruins East's reputation.
East comes to him and apologises and admits that his actions were partly driven by what Harry did to Valla (see Flashman at the Charge), because he was smitten by her. Harry refuses his apology, tells him that he is not forgiven and shatters any illusions he may have had about Valla by letting young Scud know exactly what the nature of his relationship with the Cossack's beautiful daughter was. I felt kind of wrong about that. I couldn't stand Tom Brown. I tend to side with Harry on that. Okay he went over the top with Brown, but seriously the little snot was annoying. East I kind of liked, he wasn't Harry's sort at all, but he wasn't a bad bloke. He didn't deserve what Harry did to him.
The defenders are broken by a mutineers charge and lay waiting for the inevitable doom.

Bradley Beaulieu, Twelve Kings
The Song of the Shattered Sands, Book 1 (Gollancz)
In the cramped west end of Sharakhai, the Amber Jewel of the Desert, Çeda fights in the pits to scrape a living. She, like so many in the city, pray for the downfall of the cruel, immortal Kings of Sharakhai, but she's never been able to do anything about it. This all changes when she goes out on the night of Beht Zha'ir, the holy night when all are forbidden from walking the streets. It's the night that the asirim, the powerful yet wretched creatures that protect the Kings from all who would stand against them, wander the city and take tribute. It is then that one of the asirim, a pitiful creature who wears a golden crown, stops Çeda and whispers long forgotten words into her ear. Çeda has heard those words before, in a book left to her by her mother, and it is through that one peculiar link that she begins to find hidden riddles left by her mother.
As Çeda begins to unlock the mysteries of that fateful night, she realizes that the very origin of the asirim and the dark bargain the Kings made with the gods of the desert to secure them may be the very key she needs to throw off the iron grip the Kings have had over Sharakhai. And yet the Kings are no fools-they've ruled the Shangazi for four hundred years for good reason, and they have not been idle. As Çeda digs into their past, and the Kings come closer and closer to unmasking her, Çeda must decide if she's ready to face them once and for all.
Bradley P. Beaulieu began writing his first fantasy novel in college, but in the way of these things, it was set aside as life intervened. As time went on, though, Brad realized that his love of writing and telling tales wasn't going to just slink quietly into the night. The drive to write came back full force in the early 2000s, at which point Brad dedicated himself to the craft, writing several novels and learning under the guidance of writers like Nancy Kress, Joe Haldeman, Tim Powers, Holly Black, Michael Swanwick, Kij Johnson, and many more.
In addition to being an L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Award winner, Brad's stories have appeared in various other publications, including Realms of Fantasy magazine, Orson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show, Writers of the Future 20, and several other anthologies.

Decayed organic matter, be it animal manure or composted garden material, is always the main ingredient when I'm busy planting.
Adding spent potting compost, gritty sand and a phosphatic fertiliser to the medium helps encourage root development. These are mixed together in a handy-sized tub that is an essential planting companion, easily carried between sites.
Questions relating to planting depths and supports are frequently asked.
Container-grown specimens reveal at a glance the level of compost they've enjoyed previously. It should be just below the soil surface after planting.
Bare-rooted plants have a tell-tale mark on the main stem indicating their planting depth in the nursery, which can be repeated in your garden. This allows for the addition of a deep organic mulch laid over winter.
When planting roses, blackcurrants and raspberries remember that their longevity and performance is reliant on strong young shoots emerging from below soil level. Slightly deeper planting than the norm achieves this and annual mulching perpetuates it.
When planting new or moving existing roses, always ensure that the union or point where the rose was grafted onto its rootstock, is well below soil level.
Spring flowering plants are currently replacing spent summer bedding. Whether they're in the open garden or containers, make sure they are planted firmly enough to withstand autumn winds.
When planting hardy bulbs make sure the tip of each is at least twice the bulb height below soil level. Shallow planting is one reason why narcissi fail to form blooms.

The Captain Class Frigates in the Second World War by Donald Collingwood
The Captain-class frigates included seventy-eight sturdy destroyer escorts built in the United States and leased to Great Britain in 1943. A member of the Royal Navy who served on one of these combat vessels in the Atlantic has written this engaging narrative of their operations. As a participant, he describes the close teamwork and comradeship that existed within the escort groups of the Captains as they faced the lethal submarine threat, in all weather, week in week out, with all too little opportunity for rest between operations. It is a story of vigilance, determination, and fortitude combined with high skill and unfailing courage. These "Yankee frigates," as they were affectionately known, and the men who manned them saved many thousands of lives and millions of tons of vital supplies needed to keep Britain and the Allies in the war.
Every so often a book comes along which is a true labor of love by the author. This book is one such instance.
Written by a former crewman of HMS Cubbitt, one gets the true sense of feel that others could not have imparted.
Some excellent material is contained in the narrative about the conditions at the Boston Navy Yard in Charlestown, which was a beehive of activity at that time.
As per British custom with ships received under Lend-Lease, creature comforts for the crew such as ice cream machines and laundry facilities were removed. However as an improvement performed in UK yards, proper toilets replaced the as built US style latrine style facilities.
The ships came off the Boston area production lines so fast that Royal Navy crews were not always ready for them. Some of the crews came from RN ships under repair in US yards such as HMS Uganda at Charleston. A number of the ships were sailed up to Halifax and stored at the RCN base there until such time a RN crews could be made available. One of the ships in Halifax sailed to the UK with a Canadian civilian crew and a number of others were sailed over by crews going to get ships being built in UK yards.
The author groups the ships together by the Royal Navy group to which they were assigned. A career history while engaged in these activities is provided for each ship.
Mr Collingwood is to be commended for his fine work here. It is a must of any bookshelf of students of naval history. (DS)

In a market crawling with young and highly trained new talent, it's a veritable playground for hiring managers when it comes to recruiting and staffing. But with so many companies vying for the same pool of applicants, HR professionals find themselves faced with the challenge of standing out to prospective candidates. While there are obvious draws such as salary and title, many job seekers, especially in the younger millennial demographic, are motivated as much or more by other factors when it comes to finding a corporate home. Perks are becoming more relevant in a big way, and companies that offer their employees avenues to explore personal and community development will find themselves on the winning side of the bid for talent.
One of the biggest concerns of an employee is to know that their employer is invested in their personal development. Providing corporate training programs to help new workers learn the ropes of their position is important, but companies that offer their staff the means to continue developing outside of the conventional workplace framework will demonstrate their value to those on the job market.The counterweight to professional life is academic development, and in recent years many companies have been helping employees supplement their individual academic endeavors through programs such as tuition reimbursement. According to The Washington Post, beverage monolith Starbucks recently made headlines by offering full tuition reimbursement for workers in their junior and senior years of Arizona State University, a world-class university with a recognized online program. This new initiative is attractive to Starbucks employees, as it helps them strike a balance between work life and school life— the online offerings of the school allow employees to pursue their education regardless of geographic location.
Community development
Companies that embrace their role as members of the surrounding community and encourage efforts to develop their own neighborhoods show potential applicants that there is more to them than the daily 9-to-5 grind. Work-sponsored charity programs let companies on both a corporate and an individual level give back to their customer base in a new way, strengthening both the company's public image and the relationship between management and staff.Such programs can allow workers to exercise flexibility and creativity in their implementation, ranging from charitable-giving allowances to public blood drives, food drives, and more. These initiatives are important to employees, who can take from them a sense that they're part of a company that is doing good work, leading to greater employee loyalty.
Professional development
Employees want to work for a company that they feel will provide them with ample opportunity to climb the corporate ladder and further their own career goals. One virtue your company culture should espouse in this regard is flexibility. According to Business Insider, flexible companies are those that help their employees break through the glass wall—the conceptual barrier that some companies impose to keep different departments separate. It may seem counterintuitive, but just because an employee was hired asan accountant doesn't mean they can't move into a management role later on. Interests and tastes change over time, and employers who are willing to accommodate that will see great returns from their staff.Equally important is providing your workers with the tools to develop skills and competencies in their current positions. Young, smart employees love nothing more than diving in and tackling the most interesting problems, and thus you should provide them with the resources and support to do this.Business Insider reported on one extreme example from Google known as 20 percent time, in which workers could take a day every week and focus on a project of their choosing. While an unconventional approach to be sure, it's outside-the-box thinking such as this that drives the most innovative ideas.

By Chris Lisinski
Michael Armano, a trained lawyer and firefighter, has joined the race for state Sen. Barbara L'Italien's seat.
Armano is the first Democrat to pull papers officially. A longtime resident of the district, he grew up in Lawrence, where he is now a lieutenant in the Fire Department, and attended UMass Lowell and the Massachusetts School of Law in Andover. He lives in Dracut with his wife, Jill.
In a press release last week announcing his candidacy, Armano said he is motivated to advocate for families.
"Working families deserve someone who will stand up and fight for them at the State House," he said in the release. "I'm running to bring new leadership to the State Senate and to continue my lifelong commitment of serving my community."
The 2nd Essex and Middlesex state Senate district includes Lawrence, Dracut, Andover and Tewksbury.
L'Italien is not seeking re-election to the state Senate because she is running for the 3rd Congressional District. Armano's campaign said he took out nomination papers.
No other Democrats have formally declared they are in the race, but Andover's Barry Finegold, who preceded L'Italien, has said in recent weeks that he is "strongly considering" a run for his old seat.
Joe Espinola, a retired Lowell police officer who represents Dracut on the Greater Lowell Technical High School Committee, is running for the state Senate seat as a Republican.

OneDigital and Zenefits announced last week that they are forging a new, unprecedented partnership that will give clients access to leading technology and advisory services.
We chatted with OneDigital chief growth officer Mike Sullivan about what this strategy entails, what it means for each company's future, and what it was like to meet with the somewhat infamous organization.
Editor's note: Check back for our conversation with Zenefits, coming your way soon.
LE: Tell us about the business strategy around this partnership.
Sullivan: Many folks have kind of lost sight of the fact that we actually started our entire company in the outsource business. There are hundreds of broker partners that outsource business to us of different sizes, so we built an entire infrastructure in teams and virtual-based employees.
Our outsourced business is a substantial business, and it just got substantially larger. So purely from a business standpoint, this is a major influx of revenue and a major bump to profitability for our company, because there are a lot of cases that we're going to begin managing—more than 7,000 cases—so it's a big engagement. That's first and foremost.
I think that the second thing really is…we've just come to the realization that we don't deploy technology at scale, and we needed to figure out how to do that more broadly because we think it's what our clients need. This is a big step in the direction of alignment around going to market and deploying technology in a much more integrated way but doing it with a partner that has technology resources and an overall scale.
So you're doing two things. You're going to use the Zenefits platform because it scales for new business and maybe for some of your current business. But you're also taking over 7,000 cases for Zenefits and managing them?
Yes, they're going to cease to be a broker. And they're going to align with brokers now. They're going to do it with what they call Certified Brokers. So this isn't going to be a situation where all brokers can now go sign up with Zenefits. They're looking for strategic alignment with firms with scale because they're not looking for 1,000 brokers who want to put it in two cases and play defense. They're looking for partners that can process the technology. And they're starting with us.
But they're also going to sell it to your competitors. You're the first of many brokers.
So the question is how many brokers do they end up working with? My speculation is it's going to be a smaller number of big brokers.
But I think it's going to be interesting how other brokers ultimately deploy this technology, because it is heavy lifting when it comes to trying to roll out technology to a broad swath of your clients. For example, we've spent weeks down in their Arizona operation. We took an operations team into their operation center and looked at it and said, "What work do they do, and what work do we do?"
What's been very interesting is that we've both been trying to be a broker for like 25, 75, 150 life groups, but the work that's being done is very different. It's not like a straight outsource deal where we're saying, "Oh well, you don't need those people because we do that." It's a different type of work that's being done. We're opening up an office that's in the same office building as their operation center down there. There are Zenefits people that are going to become OneDigital employees, and we're going to integrate teams so that we can do this more efficiently. We're having to re-create positions, job titles, that kind of thing, to deliver on this. Whoever ultimately decides they're going to play offense with Zenefits' technology is going to have to operationalize that. What I feel good about is I think we're going to be a great combined solution, a differentiated solution for small and midsize employers. Whoever else can accomplish that, have at it.
What is it about the broker role that has been difficult for groups like Zenefits to replace?
It's very difficult to be a broker for groups that span across a bunch of different segments and geographies. So, if Zenefits had said a long time ago, we're going to deliver software and we're going to be a broker in California, they probably would have been more successful at it. They probably would have had people on the ground to support their centralized software solution. But I think what most firms find out, whether it be payroll companies, whether it be tech companies, whether it be financial services organizations, is they're trying to manage business in a centralized way.
Honestly, it's what we did 17 years ago when we started the company. We developed a call center and we said, "Hey, out of Atlanta, let's try to manage business for the whole country." You don't know product portfolios…everything is so geographically driven, state-based regulatory driven, and the nuance of networks and products and compliance and everything to do with what brokers in markets know day in and day out because they're immersed in that particular geography. You try to do that out of a call center in Arizona—or quite frankly what we tried to do out of a call center 17 years ago in Atlanta—and you pretend. You do it as best you can, but you don't know what you don't know.
What we have learned is there's sort of a pivot point. Under 20 lives you can pretty much do remotely. Over 20 lives, you have to be face to face with clients. It seems to be the way things break out, and so we built an entire organization over and under that pivot point.
Zenefits is known for making the small business profitable. Everyone struggles with that. How scalable is this?
It has more to do with the complexity of a company's benefits program than it does the size of the benefits program. So, for instance, we could use Zenefits technology at OneDigital. We're 1,000 employees today [but] we're relatively straightforward: all employees get the same benefits program. We're not a complex benefits environment. So it's not necessarily about the number of employees; it's about the overall complexity of the benefits offering that you're building.
I think their view is, downstream, they're going to be much more of a middle-market solution.
The other key piece of it is how to very profitably manage small business. To get this right and to deploy technology into tens of thousands of groups, you have to do work more efficiently than is done today. We've been chopping away at that for 15 years. If you look at OneDigital today—and the number of groups where we deploy technology—we have benefits admin technology somewhere in about 5% of our overall groups. Maybe it's 10%, but it's probably not more than 10%. How are we going to take that to 50, 70, 80% of our groups? How are we going to manage 100 million millennials coming into the workforce by 2020? We better figure out how to do technology. I think brokers that don't think they're going to have to be responsible for that or don't think that this is coming in a more meaningful way, it really is.
This isn't about benefits administration. This is about software that runs an entire business. There's an entire ecosystem. If we can find our way on this path that they're going down and they can leverage the advisory business that we're building out, which is substantial, if I was a client, [I'd be] saying, "Wow, I have a team of technology folks and benefits folks and HR professionals explain to me how I can manage people more efficiently as an employer? I've not really had someone come in and do that." And trust me, there's a bunch of solutions in the marketplace that come out and try.
Payroll companies go out and say, here's a one-stop shop and we do it all. Technology companies are saying the same, but when you look at what really works, they do their core business really well and the other piece of it they don't do very well. And that's across the entire industry. The more we looked at that and the more we struggled with it, we just came to the realization that there's a better way to do this for clients, but you have to be all in. Which means you have to change the way work gets done, you have to change the map of the business, and that's what this partnership is about. It's about changing the map of the business going forward so the clients get a different overall solution.
So it's about managing people and the efficiency of managing people.
That's exactly right. It's about managing people. We've come to the realization that, for small and midsize businesses, we need to understand how the role of the advisor evolves. And I think that it can be encapsulated the following way—we have to begin to look at not just the employer being our client but employees and families in the group as clients. This is, in our estimation, putting a flag in the ground that says our role as advisor can get reshaped to go through the employer down to the individual and family. That really can only be done long term with technology. A call center can support it, but it has to be a tech-enabled solution.
This is an entry point to basically say the future is going to look different. We want to be part of that future, and we need to do more for our clients long term. And this partnership is an acknowledgement of we don't think we're going to do it on our own, but we need someone on the other side who is not just advanced today but has the financial backing from their investors to build and be around for the long term.
What was your process in coming to terms with Zenefits and their history and then figuring out how to work so closely with them in terms of combining employees and culture?
When the first meeting got set, we probably went to it with a level of trepidation about what we were going to walk into. Like the rest of the industry, we read what happened, and we made judgments about what that meant. But what I will tell you is the reason we are doing this partnership is because of the people. No other reason. They've got a world-class group of people leading this company now. And the passion that we came across, the attitude, energy and intelligence of the people at Zenefits, who in a very humble way [want to] get this right going forward, is why we're doing this partnership.

Detail: The largest bronze foundry complex from antiquity was excavated at Houma in northern China in the mid-twentieth century. At the two-acre site, archaeologists discovered evidence of extremely sophisticated manufacturing techniques. Fragments of reused clay models, master pattern blocks, and decorated clay molds indicate the adoption of ceramic pattern transfers to cast ornamented bronze objects. Using pattern blocks to increase the speed and volume of production without sacrificing quality was an astonishing innovation. Their presence proves foundries at Houma operated with a specialized workforce and a division of labor.

As anyone who checks in on my blog now and then will know, I am a big fan of using newspapers for genealogy research. Although it is more often the more well-to-do individuals who would place notices in the newspapers commemorating their life events, the early newspapers can be a real treasure trove of information about individuals from every walk of life.
This week's extracts come from two Scottish newspapers and have a sad seasonal theme - both detail the tragic cases of individuals caught outside in extreme weather in the Scottish winter. Their stories are so sad, especially perhaps this extract telling the fate of Mr John Piggy and his son:
|Caledonian Mercury, Thursday, January 16, 1800
From further north, we also have the sad case of William Mason from Glenbervie:
|The Aberdeen Journal, Monday, January 13, 1800
As well as these named individuals, these extracts refer to a number of unknown souls whose lives were lost to the extreme weather. We may never know who these people were, but in the era before statutory registration of deaths, the newspapers can sometimes give us a vital clue as to what happened to some of our ancestors.

I want very much to express my support for the Living Well program. I was one of the first to take part at Over 60's clinic and benefited a lot.
I have moderate depression because I can no longer work at my chosen life's work as a teacher. The clinic sent me to a psychiatrist who said my type of depression doesn't respond well to medication. They offered me 10 therapy sessions with a psychiatric social worker. Those sessions didn't help either. The next offer was the Living Well program. I must say that I went reluctantly. I just felt that living well was beyond me. I have lived with allergies all my life. These turned to chronic bronchial asthma. Then I got pneumonia 3 years in a row trying to do winter time yard duty. Finally my school district decided that I couldn't teach because it required yard duty and that made me lose work due to illness. I'm saying all of this to make the point that other things didn't help with my depression.
The Living Well program got me beyond the feeling that life was over and I was useless. The materials Grace brought to us helped me to see that retirement didn't mean doing nothing and staying home. The program not only gave me information, it also gave me the opportunity to discuss common problems with other disabled people who had problems and needed help. I began to realize that I could help others with many of the situations that I had gone through and still had a lot to give. I can be a teacher of both peer education and generational education. I now go to Living Well to share my personal experiences with those who are going through the problems that I have already struggled through. Living Well helped me to develop a goal of making sure that others also learn to live well not just exist.
I have worked with my local library to develop computer classes for seniors. I am advocating for increased funding for SSI at the legislature. I plan to advocate at the legislature in May for anti-hunger legislation and for more support for seniors. Grace has helped and supported me through all of these efforts. She has also supported my efforts to establish an "Empowering Elders" program at several local senior centers to inform new and existing seniors about all of the local programs that can get them out of their isolation and help them to live well along with me.

Warning: Obamacare gives feds 'state police power'
'There is no power in the Constitution the federal government can regulate decisions'
By Bob Unruh
There simply is no authority in the U.S. Constitution that allows bureaucrats in Washington to regulate "decisions," according to arguments that challenge the legality of Obamacare and have been handed in to a federal appeals court.
They also warn affirmation of the law would give the federal government what amounts to "state police power."
"Contrary to the district court's decision, there is no enumerated power in the Constitution that permits the federal government to mandate that plaintiffs and other American 'residents' purchase health-care coverage or face a penalty," said the brief submitted by the Thomas More Law Center to the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
The appeal is from a decision by Judge George Steeh to dismiss the lawsuit brought by the law center and several individuals challenging Obamacare as going far beyond what authority the government actually has.
The appeal said, "No matter how convinced defendants – or even the American public in general – may be that the Healthcare Reform Act is in the public interest, their political objectives can only be accomplished in according with the Constitution."

From Phyllis Miller Gillespie – Diversity Committee Chair:
I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as the 2017-18 Diversity Committee Chair for the Martin County Bar Association. I've practiced in this community for over 20 years and I have noticed slow growth in the number of women, minorities, LGBTQ, and those with disabilities participating in our Bar. Hence, there is room for continued inclusion and diversification in our legal community.

Reflexology (by Kiwi Kid)
What is Reflexology?
Reflexology is a technique of diagnosing and treating problems in the body by massaging certain parts of the body. It is a form of acupressure, but is performed more so on the feet, hands or ears.
Although not the most interesting thing, I think looking at the history of reflexology will allow one to come to better terms with it.
Reflexologys history is not fully known, but it definitely has a long history starting in the far past. Most ancient cultures seem to have used a form of reflexology to balance the bodies energies and heal others. Some say it first originated in China around 3,000BC, others say it originated in ancient Egypt, around the same time. These two are the most common views although there are others such as being developed in ancient Peru by the Incas. The most known sample of reflexology is in Egypt in the form of artwork, created around 2,300BC.
However, like most things, over time it has changed and modern reflexology is unlike that which the ancient Egyptians or Chinese likely used. Modern reflexology is mainly based on work from two physicians called Dr. William Fitzgerald and Dr. Joe Riley who tampered with the idea, and of a physiotherapist called Eunice Ingham who turned the ideas into a workable therapy. Since then it has continued to flourish and has now become a common form of therapy across the world, where it can be studied and an actual degree is required in some places to practice it.
Basic Theory
Reflexology relies on the belief that the body is made up of energy pathways called meridians. Now there are thought to be 12 main meridians (in the TCM) or 8 main meridians (in the Daoist belief). Truly I dont think it matters too much, however I prefer the Daoist belief, however since this is more so a TCM technique I think it will be more appropriate to use their ideas. Ok, so in Traditional Chinese Medicine there are 12 main meridians in the body (plus two ones corresponding to unrecognized organs, i.e. conception and governor vessel), these meridians all correspond to different organs and are named accordingly. They are as follows:
Small Intestine
Is a yang meridian.
This meridian travels from the finger tip to the outside of arms and shoulders, heads towards the nose, then back and ends at the ear.
The small intestine separates the impure and pure.
This meridian is associated with the small intestine (big surprise, Im sure!)
Triple Heater
Is a yang meridian.
This meridian travels from the finger tip, up the outside of the arm, up the shoulder and neck and ends at the eye.
The main function of this meridian is protection, it maintains harmony between the heart and lungs, stomach and spleen and bladder, kidney and liver as well as controls the immunity system and metabolism.
Large Intestine
Is a yang meridian.
This meridian travels from the finger tip up the inside of the arm and shoulder up the middle of the neck and stops at the bottom, where the nose begins.
This meridians main function is inducing vitality and elimination.
It is associated with the bowels, skin, nose and sinuses.
Urinary Bladder
Is a yang meridian.
This meridian travels from the outside of the foot, up the inner back of the leg and joins at the bottom of the spine where it goes into the body to connect to the kidneys and bladder, it also continues up the back, over the head and down the forehead and ends at the eyes.
This meridians main function is purification.
This meridian is associated with the urinary system, water metabolism, bones and teeth, ears and the spinal column.
Gall Bladder
Is a yang meridian.
This meridian travels on the outsides of the eyes and loops around the head a few times before descending down the back of the head and neck, and then travels down the sides of the body and ends at the 4th toe.
This meridians main function is body movement and judgment.
This meridian is associated with the gall bladder and eyes.
Is a yang meridian.
This meridian travels from below the eye, around the cheek and lower mouth, down the front of the body then passes through the diaphragm, enter the stomach and connects with the spleen, then down the leg to end at the second toe.
This meridians main function is nourishment
This meridian is associated with the stomach and upper digestive area, mouth and lips and breasts and ovaries.
Is a yin meridian.
This meridian travels from the inner shoulder, down the inside of the arm and ends on the right side of the nail in the thumb.
This meridians main function is vitality, in taking of energy and accepting new influences.
This meridian is associated with the lungs, nose and skin.
Is a yin meridian.
This meridian travels from the chest through the pericardium (little bag which holds the heart) down the diaphragm to the abdomen. As well as traveling externally from the chest, down the arm and finishes at the third finger.
This meridians main function is circulation and metabolism.
This meridian is associated with the pericardium, heart, arteries, vein and blood pressure.
Is a yin meridian.
This meridian travels from the armpit, down the arm and ends at the pinky finger.
This meridians main function is awareness and how we interpret our environment.
This meridian is associated with the heart, tongue, sweat and the central nervous system.
Is a yin meridian.
This meridian travels from the tip of the big toe, up the leg and body then at the chest falls down into the lower armpit area.
This meridians main function is nurturing, transportation/transformation of energy and reproduction cycles.
This meridian is associated with digestion, appetite, menstrual cycle and blood control.
Is a yin meridian.
This meridian travels from the big toe, up the top of the foot, up the shin area of the leg, then at the knee turns back up the inner leg, continues up the body, head outward towards the edge/beginning of the rib cage then turns back to the middle of the body, ends about halfway up the ribcage.
This meridians main function is detoxification and harmonizing emotions.
This meridian is associated with eyes, liver, storage and detoxification of blood and the muscular system.
Is a yin meridian.
This meridian travels from the underneath of the foot, around the ankle up the inner-back of the leg, then up the body, parallel to the conception vessel then near the beginning of the rib cage diverts away from it and finishes at the top of the ribs.
This meridians main function is willpower and also governs reproduction.
This meridian is associated with the kidneys, hormones, energy level, water metabolism, ears, bones and teeth and the lower back.
These meridians will be useful if one wants to move on from reflexology to full body acupressure or acupuncture etc. however most reflexologists do not seem to talk a lot about the meridians and instead use the term zones. The body is divided up into ten zones, five on either side of the spine. These cover the whole body and start/end at each finger or toe and relate more or less so to ten meridians of the body.
The energy within the meridians or zones should always be flowing to maintain health, any concentrations or imbalances in any part of the body cause problems (one reason why RadKi can be so devastating to a persons energetic body, since it relies on concentrating energy and often just moving it about anywhere, even against the normal flow of energy). Different meridians have different ways which the energy should flow. Basically the energy flows from the outside of the feet and legs up the body and down the outside of the arms, while the inside of the arms energy flows up and then down the inside of the body. Anything against this flow slows down the energies speed and the slower it flows the less healthy you are likely to be. So since the body is divide up into zones it makes it easy to tell where to massage for a particular organ etc, for example if we wanted to massage the liver you could follow where it is in the body down to the sole of the foot and it ends up being in zones 5, 4 and 3 of the right foot, since it is a large organ etc.
Along with this, the various meridians also have times when they are more receptive and active, meaning working on those meridians at those times will usually be better, but of course for that you would have to wait all day and massage a different point ever couple of hours, surely not using time well, however I will display each ones time to make this article more complete.
Liver = 1 a.m.-3 a.m.
Lung = 3 a.m.-5 a.m.
Large Intestine = 5 a.m.-7 a.m.
Stomach = 7 a.m.-9 a.m.
Spleen = 9 a.m.-11 a.m.
Heart = 11 a.m.-1 p.m.
Small Intestine = 1 p.m.-3 p.m.
Urinary Bladder = 3 p.m.-5 p.m.
Kidney = 5 p.m.-7 p.m.
Pericardium = 7 p.m.-9 p.m.
Triple Heater = 9 p.m.-11 p.m.
Gall Bladder = 11 p.m.-1 a.m.
Another important basic to know is that the body is made up of polarities, like all things in this world. These polarities being electrical (positive) and magnetic (negative). The right side of the body is electrical and the left side magnetic, except for the top of the foot and back of the hand, then these are reversed. This is mainly looked at when giving the massage depending on what you want to achieve by the massage. Electrical is active and so has a stimulating effect. While magnetic is passive and has a calming, sedative effect. Ill go over how this can be used in application after. Along with this, the right side of the body represents the past and the left side the future. Therefore, while giving a treatment one is supposedly meant to start with the right foot/hand etc, then move on to the left, since it is believed that many problems may come from traumatic experiences etc in the past and these should be dealt with before true healing can take place and a better future realised.
The energy body of a person usually shows all the problems that a person might physically have. Many illnesses that become apparent in the body are first apparent in the energy body of a person, sometimes quite a while before it actually manifests itself and becomes known to the individual. You can liken the energy body to a coat surrounding the physical body, as a needle comes into contact the first thing it pierces is the coat before it finally reaches the body. Due to this it is possible by using reflexology to determine any near illnesses that the patient might experience and to use the bodies natural healing powers to get rid of it before it has time to manifest itself.
Reflexology works by controlling the flow of energy in the zones. By firmly pressing a point, the energy is stimulated and directs itself to the area that the point corresponds too. Different types of pressure are believed to have different effects on the energy, like using different hands etc. Scientifically speaking, or so specialists say, reflexology is stimulating nerves in the body, some nerves which can be pretty long. Some end up at various organs etc, and so produce an effect when pressure is applied to them. Another belief by some practitioners is that the reflex points, when stimulated lead to a release of endorphins which is why the pain stops. However, I think it is more than a pain relief, but actually cures the problem, rather than hide it from view.
Uses of Reflexology
There are many uses for reflexology, it is mainly used for relieving pain and treating digestive problems, stress and tension, colds and flus, asthma, arthritis etc, etc. As said before it can also be used to predict illnesses that may arise and then prevent it from manifesting. However there are a few things which reflexology is believed to be inappropriate for, these are: diabetes, some heart disorders, thyroid gland disorders, inflammation of the veins. Some also believe it is not suitable for pregnant women to be given a reflexology treatment. Of course, reflexology will not get rid of a problem that requires surgery. Other than those few things, basically every other illness is believed to be able to be overcome by having reflexology, over certain amounts of time etc.
Practical Application
This is where the theory will be put in to use. I will say that although most forms of reflexology are similar in practice, some also have little variations or additions that fit the reflexologists well. I am no exception and before I start saying how to give reflexology treatments, I will say that all I know is learned purely from reading and practice, I have not been directly taught applications of reflexology by any person, other than one of my friends moms who has showed me a bit, so Id recommend not taking all this as the only way since I learned all I know from one person, reading and practice. Now onto how I believe one should give a reflexology treatment.
The first thing I would recommend the practitioner do is to find a soft brush, if you can and use it to scrub the soles of your feet and palms of your hands, quite vigorously until they turn bright red, do this daily. This does two things, the first of these being lightly stimulating all of the reflexes on your hands and feet, obviously something quite healthful to the body if done frequently enough. The second thing, which is actually the main focus for this is that it removes dead skin cells off the surface of the palms and soles. The soles of the feet and palms of the hand have some important energy centres in them, the soles usually take in energy and the hands release energy. By scrubbing your soles and palms you allow this energy to be taken in/given out much more easily, along with this the pores are able to breath, which means less stress on the lungs and kidneys etc. Since they remove waste as well in the process. This is not so much a reflexology technique as it is a way to get a better, more healthful energy flow through the body, call it a preventive medicine if you will. Someone with higher energy levels is much more likely to give a good treatment than one with lower.
Another good thing that I think should be done daily, which only takes about 1-2 minutes is stimulating reflexes that are on your head. There are a lot of reflexes on your head, due to the fact that all the zones end at the head. There are basically four ways that one can stimulate the reflexes on their head.
1.This is merely massaging all of the head with a gentle, circular motion, you should press past the skin and to the bone and do it over the whole head, this way takes longer than the other, faster versions.
2.The way is the way I most enjoy, it is simply putting your hand into a fist or use your fingers and gently, but quickly tapping all over the head for about 1 minute or so.
3.This way is also quite a good way, you grab handfuls of hair and lightly pull them.
4.This way is something a lot of people *should* do daily, brushing your hair. Although when brushing you should press just hard enough so that it is felt on your skull.
All of these techniques do different things to the body, although some more similar, 1, 2 and 4 are the most similar. Those three for the most part increase/speed up the flow of energy throughout that part of the body being stimulated. While the 3rd way enlivens the glands and organs in the body more thoroughly.
Do 1 or 2 of these everyday along with the scrubbing and you will over time develop a healthy body and plenty of energy (If you do not do too many other things that are detrimental to this process). I recommend always doing the 3rd one with one of the others.
Along with being used on yourself these could also, perhaps more so the head massage be done on a patient at the beginning of the treatment.
Massaging Techniques
The first thing one should know when doing reflexology is that you are not working on the skin in the massage, but more so pressing into the bone area, to achieve maximum stimulation of the reflexes. So the pressure should not be light and ticklish but actually quite firm, but relaxing at the same time. Only through practice will one find this right amount of pressure and it varies from person to person.
There are a few different massage techniques that I use when giving a treatment, I will give some of them here.
1. Pivoting: The most basic technique is to use your thumb and press onto the reflex/area you want to stimulate, while keeping the pressure even move it in slow circles.
2. The thumb can be rocked, from the tip to the first knuckle below the nail, this is also a form of pivoting and is often used with the above technique. Both the 1st and 2nd technique are useful to relieve pain and tension from an area.
3. Stroking: This is basically stroking an area with two thumbs, causing some light friction, it is often used over the whole sole of the feet and stimulates blood circulation and relaxes, this is usually the first technique used on the whole foot before more direct stimulation.
4.Kneading: This is when one balls the hand into a fist and uses the second joint knuckles of the fingers to apply pressure to the foot. While applying the pressure move the knuckles side to side etc, like you were kneading some dough.
5. Basic Pressure: This is just applying pressure with the thumb tip to a point on the body, for a small amount of time, then it is usually released and repeated several times, depending on why one is using it. If one were doing zone treatment (which will be the first kind of treatment I will go over) it would be referred to as finger walking.
The knuckle of the middle or index finger can easily be exchanged for the thumb in the above techniques, although thumb is more preferable the knuckle does its job quite well and is often used if your thumb becomes tired, which after 30 mins plus is quite liable to happen.
Identifying Problem Areas
I find strong energetic problems in the bodies of most people, is actually quite common. They are actually quite easy to find, more so if you try looking for some on your own body, in my experience the feet seem to show them better. To go about finding any problem spots all one has to do is use their thumb and gently press all over the foot, looking for any areas that feel different to others, often they may be softer compared to others or quite numb. If doing this on yourself it is even easier because a light pain may become apparent varying depending on the intensity of the problem.
Beginning Treatment
All treatments should begin with a fast rubbing of the area being treated, feet for example. Rub with either the hand, or a brush. What this does is, like said before open the pores etc, but it also allows the blood circulation in the foot to increase, as well as the energy, meaning that the treatment will be more effective.
You may also like to start with the basic head techniques given before.
The person receiving the treatment should be as relaxed as possible.
Zone Treatment
Zone treatment is the basic overall treatment, this is usually done the first time a person is given a reflexology treatment. It works all the zones equally and while doing so the reflexologists may find any problem areas that may need attention after the zone treatment, or at another session. It is a very simple technique and usually only involves the 5th technique I provided, finger walking.
The first thing is that one should know why the patient (or themselves) wants to have a treatment. Do they/you just want to relax a bit, or do they want to stimulate their energies to achieve better health. If the main concern is relaxation then one should use the left hand when massaging, being as it is magnetic and causes calmness and relaxation, if one wants to stimulate their energies then one should use their right hand being as it is electrical and has stimulating properties.
Once you have chosen what the reason is for the treatment you can begin. Using the hand corresponding to what wants to be done start pinching the top of the big toe on the right foot, or the thumb of the right hand, if working with the hands (remember that the right side of the body should always be treated first, as it relates to the past). This is using a variation often called the C-clamp, as your thumb and finger form a C shape, the finger supports the toe while the thumb applies the pressure. Hold this pressure for about 30 seconds then release it. Now move down the middle of the toe repeating over all areas of the big toe, holding for about 30 seconds then releasing pressure. Maximum attention should be paid to the big toe, I consider it very important in reflexology, as it is where the pituitary, pineal, medulla and hypothalamus are located. Once the big toe is treated move downwards following the 1st zone, use the free hand to support the back of the foot and use the thumb (or knuckle) of the selected hand to apply light pressure. Continue to move down the zone using this 30 second pressure, then release. When you finally arrive at the end of the heel, use the C-clamp in the skin area between the big toe and the second toe, again for 30 seconds. Then go to the beginning of the second toe, using the C-clamp, pinch the top of that toe as well and continue downwards. Continue this on the whole of the right foot and then left foot.
While doing the treatment make a note (mental or written) about any areas which feel different to others, or which the patient says hurt. Some like to make the treatment more overall by first using their right hand and then re doing the treatment with their left hand. If one were to do this one would start with the right hand then work the right foot to left foot, then repeat with the left hand. This would firstly stimulate the energies of the patient and then relax them. Others may want to relax the patient first then stimulate the energies, while some others may want to knead the foot at the end of the treatment. All personal choice.
The above treatment should take around 30 minutes-1 hour, if you stick with the 30 seconds and cover every part of the sole on both feet.
I would recommend trying to perform this on yourself at least twice a month, preferably once a week if able to.
Reflex Treatment
Treating the reflexes is the most common treatment, being as most patients do go to see a reflexologist to help deal with a certain problem. From the name it is easy to tell what this treatment is. It is basically stimulating specific reflexes on the foot/hand etc, to help relieve a certain problem. There are many reflex point charts on the internet or in books that one can easily find, some have slight variations, however most have the points in around the same area. In my experience I have found that some people do indeed have some differences in where the reflexes seem to be, the one Ive found best suited, at least for my body is one from a book I read when I first became interested in reflexology, the chart for the hands and feet are provided below. (This chart is not the one I commonly use, I decided, due to some problems I will not scan it and put it up etc. )
When one has chosen what problem one wants to heal, you can look at the above chart (or another that may suit you better) and see what reflex points would most likely be suitable for your problem, if you have a stomach ache, massage the stomach reflex etc.
There are a few reflex points that I believe are very important to massage daily as well as on all patients who come to you, even if they do not actually have much to do with the actual problem. These reflex points are:
First and foremost the endocrine glands (pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroid, thymus, adrenal, pancreas and testes/ovaries.) As a note the adrenal gland should not be stimulated too much, for reasons most should know as well as that it is very close to the kidney reflexes and so you may accidentally over-stimulate the kidneys.
The brain.
And finally the spinal reflex, obviously the spine being (according to me) one of the most important structures in the body, controlling most of our nervous system, holding us up and being the place where the 7 main charkas are located.
Sample Treatment
I will now present a sample treatment, so one may see how one may go about actually giving one for a specific problem etc.
Now lets say that someone is complaining about breathing problems recently, there are a few things that one should do.
First and foremost you should ask more precisely what the problem is, where is it, are the sinuses blocked, are you having heart palpitations, etc. etc. All this sets up to make sure one can more properly deal with the problem.
It is also helpful to know the diet of the patient as well as various medical problems they may have.
Once one has analyzed exactly what the problem is and how they plan to fix it, they should lie the patient down so that they are comfortable, preferably on a couch, bed etc, perhaps with pillows etc. The whole treatment should be relaxing, Ive heard of people having patients go to sleep while they massage, this could be due to great relaxation or maybe just due to getting bored of lying down for an hour or so. Personally I havent had this experience with anyone so far.
One may rub their hands together, putting right on left, then rubbing clockwise for 36 times, repeat with left on top of the right hand. This brings energy to the hands to allow healthy energy to flow into the patient (such as why it is important to maintain healthy energy, one does not want to give dirty energies to another)
Once the patient is comfortable one should start rubbing the sole of the foot (assuming your working on the feet) vigorously (though not too much that it causes pain) this allows energy and circulation of blood in that area to increase, preparing for the treatment.
Then one should go on to treat, now one should go on to treat the most important points, in my view first of all. These points can be massaged using basic pressure, which should be applied for about 5-10 secs, released then repeated for a total of 3 times. The top of the big toe should be firmly pinched to activate the brain reflex and the knuckle can be moved slowly up the spine reflex.
Once that is done the body is ready for the actual treatment of the problem.
-Lets say that after asking for more details we find that the patients sinuses are having problems, often becoming blocked, the patient has a history of heart palpitations and when breathing pain is apparent in the left lung.
So the first thing (after doing all the above) we should do is open the sinuses, since that is the beginning of where the problem is. Now the sinus reflexes are located at the tip of each toe (apart from big), we want to open them, this requires a more active role so we shall use our right hand.
Form the c-clamp with the thumb and forefinger of the right hand and firmly squeeze the tips of each of the toes, starting with the right foot, from the little toe.
Hold the squeeze on each reflex for about 10 seconds, then release for a few seconds and apply pressure again. One would repeat from about 3-10 times depending on the seriousness of the problem.
After the sinus reflex points have been appropriately massaged we can move on to the lung problem .since it is basically painful we shall for this one use our left hand instead of our right, it being magnetic and sedative.
Now since it is the left lung having problems we will work on the left foot. Find the lung reflex and lightly place pressure on it with your left thumb for a period of ten seconds repeating (again like before) a few times depending on seriousness. It is likely that the patient may say it is painful, lighten the pressure a bit and keep working with it, gradually applying more pressure as it becomes less tender/pain lessens. After a good repetitions you can move on (it doesnt matter if the pain hasnt subsided in the foot yet)
Now we shall do some basic pivoting on the lung reflex with the thumb, make slow circles on the reflex, applying a good amount of pressure and gradually working it, as pain lessens etc. This activates small waves of energy to pass down the reflex towards the lungs, giving healing energy etc. Stop when you feel it has been done long enough.
Next one will apply gentle strokes with the left hand thumb to the reflex point, creating a light friction. What this does is allows the lungs to relax, like a massage done on the shoulders often has the relaxing feel, relieving tension etc, so this too will do the same for the left lung.
Many reflexologists will only work with the area where the problem is, in this case, the left lung. However I would in this case also massage the right lung reflex in a similar manner, due to trying to maintain a balance in the body, since imbalances do tend to lead to health problems etc.
After that we can move on to the heart reflex, again trying to relax it so we use the left hand, and in this case can basically repeat the above examples again, instead though on the heart reflex.
Now the problem should have been efficiently treated, although something like this may require more than one treatment.
The end of the treatment should end with brisk rubbing of the feet.
It is to be advised to the person receiving the treatment, to not eat for about 2 hours afterwards if possible and that they should go and lay in a warm bath, drink a few glasses of pure water. This is all to help with the removing of toxins from the body.
Common Occurrences & Problems
After the treatment the patient may feel queasy, may have a headache, often need to go to the bathroom, in rare cases may even vomit (although vomiting I have not had any experience with). These are nothing to be overly alarmed about, reflexology helps the bodies natural healing powers, it aids the body in removing toxins from itself, of course these toxins have to have a way to get out, which is why someone may go to the bathroom a lot, or get a headache while the toxins try to find an escape path etc. This is why I said the patient should have a warm bath, drink water etc. One should only be alarmed if the problem continues for more than a day or two. In some cases such as these it may be likely that one over stimulated a certain reflex.
However reflexology is in most cases very safe and I have had no problems with it yet, over-stimulating a reflex is usually not too much of a problem and should heal itself out after a few days. One thing I will say is if after stimulating a reflex point for a while the pain does not lessen but increases, STOP, you may cause more problems then you fix.

Dreamland: A review
Author: David K. Randall
Info: W.W. Norton & Company, copyright 2012, 290 pages
A review in 10 words (or thereabouts): How to frustrate an insomniac even more, or why sleep in so darn frustrating.
Like many of us, journalist David K. Randall never gave sleep much thought. That is, until he began sleepwalking. One midnight crash into a hallway wall sent him on an investigation into the strange science of sleep.
In Dreamland, Randall explores the research that is investigating those dark hours that make up nearly a third of our lives. Taking readers from military battlefields to children 's bedrooms, Dreamland shows that sleep isn't as simple as it seems. Why did the results of one sleep study change the bookmakers odds for certain Monday Night Football games? Do women sleep differently than men? And if you happen to kill someone while you are sleepwalking, does that count as murder?
This book is a tour of the often odd, sometimes disturbing, and always fascinating things that go on in the peculiar world of sleep. You ll never look at your pillow the same way again.
~Goodreads Description~
The Breakdown
If I woke up in terrible pain from a night of unfortunate sleepwalking, I too would want to get to the bottom of my nighttime wanderings. Randall dives into the history and science of sleep, providing interesting anecdotes and clarifying stories to show how little we really know about a necessary part of our daily lives.
The Awesome
Randall is telling you a story; he's a journalist that is also a conversationalist. Without getting too technical, he weaves his way through the mysteries of sleep through personal narrative and using historical context. Each chapter tackles a different topic; the setup creates a pleasant, fast-paced reading experience.
The Not So Awesome
The book was fascinating, but I can't shake the thought that Mary Roach's approach is better. So, once again, the "not so awesome" is really just personal taste.
Overall, most definitely a worthwhile read. Randall is personable which makes all the difference. If you've ever wondered why sleep eludes you, or why things go all wonky the next day, check out Dreamland by David K. Randall.

Happy Sunday, peeps. I'm bringing you another hot seven from His to Punish. To set the scene, they've just had a sexy encounter, and are recovering, as it were.
Heat suffused his girl's cheeks, and she dropped her gaze to his collarbone.
"Though it was fucking hot. The only way we could have improved on that would have been if I'd had my ropes. Hmm, just think, you out in the open, spread wide for my pleasure, tied between trees, and completely at my mercy."
He chuckled at Jeanette's sharp intake of breath and the feel of her wet pussy rippling along his naked thigh.
"Oh, my naughty girl likes that idea, I see. We'll have to do that then, though perhaps not in the gardens of my mother's nursing home, huh?"
Dance teacher Jeanette MacArthur has one thing on her mind when she auditions for a job at La Masquerade—revenge. She couldn't protect her sister from the criminals she now seeks employment with, but she can ensure that justice prevails.
If only her body wouldn't melt at the touch of one of them. Ty Mason, second hand man of the Cleaners, oozes dominance, aggression, and danger. He stands for everything she ought to despise, yet this unwanted attraction threatens to ruin her.
Ty can't take his eyes off the new dancer, not least because he senses the threat she represents. Only one thing for it—claim her for his own, and torture the secrets out of her—if need be.
Her unwilling submission, however, means he discovers more than her secrets.
His heart and their future are on the line.
