health and knee/arthritis difficulties is yoga recommended some people will have issues using the knees? there are some Yoga asanas which will don't involve the knees... and you could potentially do those. but a conventional Yoga routine may possibly not be the greatest for a knee injury. you might want to look into fishing... that takes a significant amount of pressure away from the knee... I what food was in a yoga class with mostly + a lot of women some of whom had arthritis and knee problems. May possibly a wrist issue, myself. Anyway, that teacher would often suggest modifications. You rarely did half-, for illustration, which is stressful within the knees. I was very impressed considering the last teacher I did, and would always be in that elegance except for that experts claim I relocated. He was students of the Iyengar method. A teacher will encourage you to know how far to go in a specific pose and how to modify it. As i agree but I wou charleston sc weather ld say essential trick, to know that Yoga teacher that has that kind of expertise. There are certainly some in existence, but not each teacher has that type of skill. I imagine that if the Physical exercise exercises were accomplished in coordination with a 's assessment, as well as a cranio-sacral therapist's analysis, it would become best... that method the chiro or c-s therapist could assess each exercise.

I agree regarding water being extremely healing and I attended'water yoga' class around my community - but that particular teaher's approach was too simplistic for myself. However, water exercises are a terrific work with stiff and sore joints, and I also think swimming are certainly healing. I have discovered that some asanas on land that are difficult (say ) are generally much, much easier from the water. (Swimming onto your back in will be fun - check it out! ) should remember the fact that most yoga positions is usually modified and your movement toward the position is the succeed, not the final -perfect asana. Teachers will be interviewed on the telephone to see if they have had individuals with arthritis not to mention knee problems, and the way they suggest alternative or adjustments to asanas. Finally there are postures that is certainly taxing. Because associated with my wrist problem, right now I find upward-facing puppy too difficult, and sit thatout.

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Looking for the best rate
If e-entrepreneur Sarah De Klein has a passion, it's for empowering people with information.
Indeed, information is the sole product of her latest e-venture, Ratetrades.ca, a "community organization" running for two years now that provides widespread exposure for Manitoba tradespeople, and a comprehensive source of peer-to-peer information on same for consumers.
Founder and CEO of Ratetrades, De Klein — who received her business degree at University College Dublin in Ireland and came to live in Winnipeg in 2007— finds what she sees as an info-deficient environment here surprising.
"With only 1.3 million people in Manitoba, renovations are a billion-dollar industry province-wide," she says.
"Canadians are private and don't offer referrals very often," says Keith Bowie, vice-president of Ecologic Spray Foam, who's been listed on Ratetrades since it launched. "And we're very rare to complain."
With 2,500 trades presently listed for Manitoba, De Klein notes that she remains a strong defender of small businesses. Nonetheless, "we're used to more transparency in Europe," where she was previously involved with such e-ventures as Aisleway, a London-based destination wedding company.
The contrasting state of affairs in Manitoba is no good for trades either, she insists.
"Tradespeople can't communicate effectively with consumers like this, and they need consumer trust."
"Ratetrades provides a great format for my business," says Bowie, who met De Klein when he did some work for her himself. "I can say, 'Don't take my word for it.'"
Trades can list for free on the site – there's no agency fee, nor any cost for the consumer. Reviews of tradespeople are also completely anonymous and non-incentivized.
Winnipeg's ViewSource Media, who built the website, uses an algorithm to bolster what they first do manually: check for multiple usernames for the same IP addresses, date and time stamps and patterns in tone and language.
"Anything we miss, it finds," De Klein says. The goal is to weed out fake reviews, which have become a conspicuous problem on consumer report websites.
"We can and will even contact reviewers for documentation on any particular job," De Klein continues. (For that matter, she adds, one can pick up the phone and call Ratetrades directly.)
Those kinds of trusted, first-hand accounts are exactly what user Allister Penner, a Winnipeg chartered accountant and senior manager of assurance services at MNP LLP, appreciates about the site.
"Since the site launched I have used it to source a plumbing contractor and I'm currently looking for a landscaper," he says, adding that the site is also extremely user-friendly.
If there's any time people should take advantage of De Klein's service and product – now available in a mobile version – it may be now, with the June renovation season looming.
Meanwhile, the scope of Ratetrades is expanding westward: De Klein says the site will list 8,000 trades in Vancouver in the next few weeks.
"These kinds of endorsements are worth gold to me," Bowie says. That's at least one local tradesman who'd agree with De Klein: "There's a place for building your business on merit," she says.

I'm sitting here with my babygirl who's only a day old, crying because my family hates her name, and they're not afraid to say so. All I've heard since we had her is how were going to regret it, how people will think I was a dumbass and didn't know how to spell. And how "black" her name is... I seriously can't.take it. Her name is Maliya Isabell, her daddy named her and she fits her name so well. All the nurses love her name and all the midwives love it as well. I really just want to punch my family in their face! Mostly my mom and fake ass sister.
Everyone still hates her name...

My mom hated the name we gave our 3rd baby. She kept saying she would just call him something different. Ugh whatever. It bugged me but we still named him what we wanted and she calls him by his real name now and doesn't even say any thing about it any more lol
His name is Kado.
And btw. I think Malia is a beautiful name! I'm sorry they are giving you a hard time. They will come around.

Doesn't sound like your mom would have liked anything you picked. I would just tell her she's hurting you very much and then try to stay away from her as much as you can. I know it's hard if you're living with her.Screaming at her or telling her to F off prob won't help much. Doing the opposite might. I love her name.

My family hates the name i picked out too. They better not say anything once shes here because thats just cruel. My mom says she will surely end up a stripper eith a name like that. Its Xandria btw. But your babys name is beautiful and u love it so thats all that matters. I refuse to change mine because my family doesn't like it. They got to name their kids and i will name mine.
Posted 03/06/2013
When I read your post I was expecting a really really horrid ethic name and for me to agree with your family, but Maliya Isabell is absolutly adoreable! Very cute! I'd stick with it.
Posted 03/06/2013
I like it, we have a version of it on our name list. Ignore those idiots, sometimes people can't help but judge.
Posted 03/06/2013
I think it's a Hawiaan name but who cares? If the Presidents daughter didn't have the same name they would never say that. It's just because of the association and that's pretty rude and a couple other things but oh well. Enjoy your baby and forget your family.

Mount Pleasant
My Journey from Creating a Billion-Dollar Company to Teaching at a Struggling Public High School
Not available
moreA Silicon Valley entrepreneur takes on the challenge of a lifetime: teaching in one of California's toughest high schools.
Entrepreneur Steve Poizner has run a billion dollar company, but the greatest challenge of his life was the year he spent teaching twelfth graders at San Jose's Mt. Pleasant High School. On many days, like the one when a student's boyfriend was arrested for bank robbery, his managerial and entrepreneurial skills seemed irrelevant. But on others, they helped him demonstrate how exciting it is to learn. Playing Jeopardy with the class and inviting speakers into the classroom, Poizner motivated his students by expanding their horizons far beyond their high school's walls.
Poizner writes, "Often I came to ask myself one question: What exactly are you doing here? As it turns out, I was receiving one hell of an education." Mt Pleasant is ultimately a success story, as Poizner wins Rookie Teacher of the Year honors and, more important, ensures that all his students graduate.

INDEPENDENCE, Mo. (AP) — Three men broke into a house in a Kansas City suburb early Friday and fatally shot a woman, her son and her boyfriend, police said. A fourth victim was critically injured.
No motive has been established for the shooting at the small home in Independence, but police Capt. John Cato said it was not a random act.
"This was an armed attempted residential robbery," Cato said. "They probably knew or at least were associated with one another."
Cato identified the dead as 48-year-old Maria Hernandez; her boyfriend, Thomas Madrigal; and Hernandez's 20-year-old son, Antonio. The fourth person was not identified.
The shootings were reported around 4:30 a.m., and a search for suspects continued Friday afternoon. At least two of the suspects could be armed, Cato said.
Authorities could be seen removing one body in a silver bag from the house shortly before 3 p.m. Friday and a second one about an hour later.
Neighbors said Hernandez and the other occupants had moved in this past year.
Authorities weren't certain Friday how many people lived in the house. Cato said the family may have included up to six children, but that some may be grown and living elsewhere.
Claudette Henson, a neighbor, said she recently saw Maria Hernandez at a football game in which one of Hernandez's younger sons was playing. Hernandez was wearing the boy's jersey.

James A. Garfield, the 20th president of the United States, is one of eight former presidents born in Ohio. He is buried in what I'd call an ostentatious 180-foot-tall memorial building in Lake View Cemetery, Cleveland, that's listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This knocker is one on the weathered blue doors at the entrance.
Really nice.
Thanks, Sheryl!
– Monnie Ryan
Knock knock! Let me out of this ALTERNATE UNIVERSE! lol! (Not at all happy with these changes! But decided I would stick it out.) Maybe over several weeks we'll find our way around????
Cool shot, love the textures and the colors!
Thanks, Nadya! Once I discovered how to restore the "old" default feed, I've been fairly comfortable, but I'm sure it's somewhat of a nightmare for group hosts. There are a few other things I don't much like (as in the groups I belong to on the left side are in the order I joined them rather than alphabetical as they used to be, but they're not things I use much anyway. Hang in there!
– Monnie Ryan
But Monnie, what if someone answered. ? I'd be off like a rocket. Seriously though, really detailed shot with great caption. Cheers. Tony. P.S. Raining so hard now it's deafening.
LOL – you're right about that – I'd be leaving sneaker tracks on the path getting out of there! Sure wish we could trade you a little sun for some of your rain.
– Monnie Ryan
Great-looking knocker … love the texture and detail! …… on your reply to Nadya about the groups.. I hadn't figured out they were listed by order of joining ~ it's horrible … makes so much more sense to be in alphabetical order!
Thanks, Susie! The groups are still in alphabetical order when you upload a photo and want to add it to groups. Have no idea why it's the other way on the left side – in fact, Jack's the one who figured out they're in order of joining (which makes absolutely no sense to me).
– Monnie Ryan
Wow – thanks very much for the feature!!
– Monnie Ryan
Congratulations on being voted into the Top.10 in the "Door-knocker" challenge.
Thank you – and thanks to those who voted!!

You cannot measure a campaign's success on clicks and actions if the creative doesn't give people a reason to click or convert.
OK, I know I'm supposed to be an online media guy and this is supposed to be an online media column. But, I just have to speak up here. Far too often, advertisers who base the success of their online campaigns on hard conversion and action metrics forget that media will only do one thing: put your ads in front of the right people. It won't make people, desire, click, or convert. It's the job of the creative to encourage desired behavior -- and it is some form of desired behavior (clicks, actions, or conversions) that success is typically based on.
The funny thing is when our firm just does the media buy for our clients, and doesn't do the creative (banners and landing pages), we can usually tell whether something is going to work before the first impression has even been served. We can always tell when creative was done without the final metric for success in mind and wasn't mapped all the way though to the desired action or behavior.
You cannot measure a campaign's success on clicks and actions if the creative doesn't give people a reason to click or convert. What you need to do is plan, design, and model the whole transaction associated with the initial conversion event and also plan immediate automatic lead escalation triggers.
Let's say you are a high-tech company or online service trying to generate leads by getting people to sign up for a free trial or download a white paper. You must have a series of components that funnel prospects towards your marketing objectives. The components that must be modeled to complete an online conversion for a free trial or white paper should include the following:
Remember, online you have only seconds to communicate your offer. Make sure you don't have banners that take 20 seconds to get to the offer. By then most people will have scrolled or moved on, so make your offer and give it a permanent place on your banner. If it is a skyscraper put it at the top. Don't make people wait to see your offer!
A thought out conversion path will not only get you a cheaper action or lead -- it widens your universe of performing opportunities because buys that would have been labeled "non-performing" will work!

gift suggestion?
Nancy zone 6July 6, 2007
I have a friend who will be leaving the country for a year to work with underprivileged kid is Thailand I think it is. WE're having an office party, what would be an appropriate gift? I can't think of anything small, or that would be useful to her.
Anything to do with taking photos.
A journal.
Gift card to a store to buy any last minute items. Maybe find out where they will be and give them a check to buy supplies for the kids. OR another great gift would be to sponsor a child.
Buy disposable cameras for the kids and have them sent to you to develop and send back.

Hushdrops' first album, Volume 1, came out in 2003, and while the band has never stopped playing live shows no new material appeared … until now. There are few veritable music geniuses in Chicago—there are many talented folks in the scene but only a small percentage are truly visionary—but the argument could be made that Hushdrops' singer/guitarist John San Juan is one of them. When you pair his encyclopedic knowledge of music with his ability to play just about anything he lays his hands on, add the steady bass playing of Jim Shapiro and the tornado drumming of Joe Camarillo, you get something truly unique. Pair that with the band's near obsessive—O.K., fully obsessive—attention to detail and you can see why it took their new album Tomorrow a decade to grow into what it's become and get released into the world.
Visionaries tend to not make small statements, so Tomorrow is a sprawling double album that reaches into all corners of the musical world while always hewing closely to San Juan's distinctive voice and style. There's a lot of '60s and '70s rock in here, a deluge of pop and psychedelia, but there's also a manic punk underpinning driving much of the music. I suppose one could describe Tomorrow as today's version of Maximum R&B.
Since Tomorrow is a double album, it's best listened to in a single listen. Taking in the music at the appropriate doses only leads to euphoria; taking the whole thing in one sitting without breaks between sides can lead to a happy exhaustion. Its construction also makes it difficult to parse one song's virtue over another's as the music is meant to wash over you and lead from one wave into the next. As we were trying to pick apart the virtues of "Have We Gone Too Far," a beautifully surging gem of pop, we found that the follow up thunderous crush leading into sweet melodies that is "Find Her" only amplified the previous song's power. So wait, this is truly what an album is supposed to do! Songs comment upon and strengthen each other and aren't simply placed in order of descending possibility of single release? What a concept! And so on and so on, all throughout Tomorrow.
It isn't lost on us that an album titled Tomorrow would take so many of its cues from the past, right down to the rather unexpected move of recording this ambitious collection of songs entirely in mono. But if that's the context you view something like this in you're missing the whole picture. Hushdrops has used every bit of their own grasp of musical history to create something so perfectly put together it can only exist just over the horizon of our expectation. This is truly an album that exists somewhere outside of the present, an album for tomorrow.
Well, it's a cold and snowy night, here in Lizard Central, and we wanted to update you all on what's been shakin' with the band so far this 2015. It's been a rewarding and busy January, doing shows at the Intermission, J's UW-kellner, the Hotel Mead and Lake Arrowhead. The shows have been ferocious and tight, and the band is musically moving forward all the time. The lineup is as cohesive as we've ever been, and we are starting to work up songs for our NEXT - yes, NEXT album, and have about 10 songs ready to get serious about. The songs are coming from all of us, and I think you'll dig the direction we are going with this one. We can't (won't) let you know too much right now but, if you get to our winter/spring shows, we are playing some of the new material to get a feel for it live.
We are also super excitied to be sharing the bill with our good friends THE HUSHDROPS from Chicago this April 4 at the Wildhorse Saloon in Kellner. The Hushdrops are touring in support of their new release "Tomorrow", a gorgeous, fuzz filled two-disc MONO killer of an album. We'll have more info from the 'Drops soon and we'll get you links to their album downloads, (although the vinyl is worth savoring if you can)! This is a not-to-be-missed show!! Check the schedule page for info as we get it.
So, lots of upcoming gigs, hitting the studio (when we're not sick with colds, flu and shingles...), and writing original tunes, and a few new tasty covers as well. What could be better?

We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I don't know; Oracle rebranded and unbundled a particular product that was a free part of the base OS until recently, and just quoted a (large) company already locked in to using it a million dollars (minus epsilon) for the licensing and support for 3 years.
Multiply by (probably several thousand enterprise users of that software suite)...
It may not be Larry posting here *cough* but a lot of customers feel like turnips right now.
My Oracle support sucks, the damn thing is flash, you can't reply via email only by logging back in and trying to use it. It fails quite often and loses anything you typed in. Plus they do anything to avoid calling you.
It is the worst support portal I have ever seen.
Oracle loves to destroy a good thing, don't they?

Heck, I remember setting up Enterprise 250s using serial consoles, and FTPing to sunsolve to download the patch clusters, then installing them.
Nowadays not only do you need a web browser and an account, but you can't get patches at all without an expensive support contract. And on top of that, when we got our support contract they screwed things up and didn't even give us the proper permissions to get our patches. It took a *MONTH* of wrangling to get them to fix their festering pile of shit.
I miss you, Sun Microsystems. Oracle is the devil. We won't be buying any more Sun/Oracle hardware from this point forth, that's for sure.
It is the quality rather than the quantity that matters. - Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 B.C. - A.D. 65)

the Jaffa old clock tower
Photograph - Photography
The 109 years old Jaffa Clock Tower which is one of 7 clock towers built in Israel during the Ottoman (Turkish) period.
The Jaffa Clock Tower was built in the beginning of the 20th century and stands in the middle of Yefet street at the northern entrance of Jaffa, the ancient city that is now a part of the greater Tel Aviv.
The clock tower was built in the center of the market square near a police station and a mosque, and gave the popular name for the square - the Clock Square.
Jaffa's clock tower is an attractive a three stories tower, built of limestone with and crowned with an elegant copper roof, that contains two clocks and a bell.
Its shape is reminiscent of a German church tower. The clock tower has been renovated several time through the years.

Members Of Congress Complain It's Unfair To Subject Them To Obamacare
Just in case you are one of the 3 or 4 people left in America who isn't sure that Congress is wildly out of touch, this story should get you over the hump.
Dozens of lawmakers and aides are so afraid that their health insurance premiums will skyrocket next year thanks to Obamacare that they are thinking about retiring early or just quitting.
The fear: Government-subsidized premiums will disappear at the end of the year under a provision in the health care law that nudges aides and lawmakers onto the government health care exchanges, which could make their benefits exorbitantly expensive.
If the issue isn't resolved, and massive numbers of lawmakers and aides bolt, many on Capitol Hill fear it could lead to a brain drain just as Congress tackles a slew of weighty issues – like fights over the Tax Code and immigration reform.
The problem is far more acute in the House, where lawmakers and aides are generally younger and less wealthy. Sources said several aides have already given lawmakers notice that they'll be leaving over concerns about Obamacare. Republican and Democratic lawmakers said the chatter about retiring now, to remain on the current health care plan, is constant.
Rep. John Larson, a Connecticut Democrat in leadership when the law passed, said he thinks the problem will be resolved.
"If not, I think we should begin an immediate amicus brief to say, 'Listen this is simply not fair to these employees,'" Larson told POLITICO. "They are federal employees."
Republicans, never a fan of Democratic health care reform, are more vocal about the potential adverse effects of the provision.
"It's a reality," said Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Texas). "This is the law. … It's going to hinder our ability with retention of members, it's going to hinder our ability for members to take care of their families." He said his fellow lawmakers are having "quiet conversations" about the threat.
Alabama Rep. Jo Bonner said the threat is already real, especially for veteran lawmakers and staff. If they leave this year, they think they can continue to be covered under the current health care plan.
"I've lost one staffer who told me in confidence that he had been here for a number of years and the thought of losing the opportunity to keep his health insurance on Dec. 31 [forced him to leave]. He could keep what he had and on Jan. 1 he would go into that big black hole," said Bonner, who had already planned his resignation from Congress. "And then I've got another staff member that I think it will be a factor as she's contemplating her future."
Wow, it must be so hard on all those poor congressmen and their staffers to have to live by the same laws as the rest of us peons. Doesn't your heart just bleed for those poor congressmen and their staffers?

Would You Rather Lobby for Russia or Be Sexually Harassed for American Apparel?
Two esteemed US senators emeriti have begun to lobby for Putin's Russia, which is like signing on to defend the Galactic Empire. But things aren't so super-great here on our shores either: try to read this account of 20 icky days spent as an employee of American Apparel without wrinkling your nose. There are jobs you hate, and then there are jobs that make you hate yourself. Like giving yourself over Dov Charney's slimy and racist sexploitation shops or selling out on behalf of a frozen yet oil-rich homophobic plutocracy.
Jane Doe reports:
In retrospect, I should've been more wary of a company with a history of outrageous unprofessionalism. What I hoped would be a low-stress, part-time job turned out to be a major source of anxiety and a cesspool of harassment. The incompetent, appallingly racist management and belittling of employees were commonplace, and created a hostile work environment.
It's unfortunate that American Apparel requires employees to sign agreements saying they won't speak ill of the company upon leaving. I'm sure that there are many upset employees (including some that I worked with) that are afraid to speak out.
This is why it's hard to learn from other people's experiences: it's so easy to hope we'll do things, or be treated, differently. Anyway it's not like there are jobs dangling from the trees like ripe fruit ready to be picked. Sometimes you have to take what you can get and hope for you have developed an immuno-resistance to hostile work environments. Also, things change, often in very strange ways. Work for Playboy! They're waving a feminist flag high and proud these days.

"When Leon dies, Bard will perhaps die as well"
In this Gawker polemic against Bard college, an expensive liberal arts school author Leah Finnegan attended for two years before transferring to a public university in the South, Finnegan argues that the fates of eccentric, longstanding college president Leon Botstein and the college itself are linked: "When Leon dies, Bard will perhaps die as well." In other words, she suggests that Bard, like so many non-profits, suffers from Founder's Syndrome.
Founder's Syndrome occurs when a single individual or a small group of individuals bring an organization through tough times (a start-up, a growth spurt, a financial collapse, etc.). Often these sorts of situations require a strong passionate personality – someone who can make fast decisions and motivate people to action.Once those rough times are over, however, the decision-making needs of the organization change, requiring mechanisms for shared responsibility and authority. It is when those decision-making mechanisms don't change, regardless of growth and changes on the program side, that Founder's Syndrome becomes an issue. We see this most frequently with organizations that have grown from a mom-and-pop operation to a $12 million community powerhouse, while decisions are still made as if the founders are gathered around someone's living room, desperately trying to hold things together.
Founder's Syndrome isn't necessarily about the actual founder of an organization. The central figure could be the person who took over from the founder. It could be someone who took over in a time of crisis, and led the organization to clear waters. Or it could just be someone who has been at the helm forever. The "founder" could be the CEO. Or it could be a board member, or a handful of board members who have either been there since the beginning or have ridden the organization through tough times.
But the main symptom of Founder's Syndrome is that decisions are not made collectively. Most decisions are simply made by the "founder." All other parties merely rubber stamp what the founder suggests. There is generally strong resistance to any change in that decision-making, where the Founder might lose his/her total control of the organization. Boards of these organizations usually don't govern, but instead "approve" what the founder suggests. Planning isn't done collectively, but by the founder. And plans / ideas that do NOT come from the founder usually don't go very far.
Partly because Leon "hates money," Finnegan argues, Leon's school, despite tuition hikes, is hanging on by a thread.
Keep It Short and Sweet When Quitting
State : Europe :: Companies : U.S.
Forbes has a thing about how great it is to work at Gawker now (subsidized gym memberships! ordered-in meals! great healthcare!). Basically the company is offering startup tech-company level benefits now. This quote from head Nick Denton really struck me: "I have to come to terms with the paternalism of American business. Companies are expected to take on so many social responsibilities which are the province of the state in Europe." !! RIGHT. It's so true. Would that we all could work for companies that took on the responsibility (or, that we lived in a country that took it upon itself to make sure they did).
