In the latest issue of Psychotherapy in Australia ((Vol 20 No 4 Aug 2014) Angela Nickerson, Director of the Refugee Trauma and Recovery Program, discusses research into the mental health of asylum seekers and refugees, focusing on the concept of resilience. She points out that psychological research has consistently reported higher levels of mental disorders such as post traumatic stress disorder and depression amongst refugee groups.
The EMF Balancing Technique® works in a gentle yet powerful way with the human energy field to encourage and empower people who want to live their 'most enlightened life'.
While there are now many modalities that work with the human energy field, what makes EMF special is the sense of sacred connection often experienced by both giver and receiver. As life continues to become more intense and hectic, many people find this sense of sacred connection between themselves and others to be very empowering.
I have been practising and teaching this modality for over 15 years In Singapore and Australia. Clients and students often remark on feelings of lightness after a session.
Increase your energetic sensitivity and accelerate your evolution as a conscious human being. Each successive balance unfolds an expanded understandings of oneself. The energy is gentle, powerful and nurturing.

Build Emotional and Spiritual Resilience in just Thirteen Sessions - How it Works
For the past couple of days I have been revisiting the 'health assessment' unit in the new Certificate IV in Electro Magnetic Field (EMF) Balancing.
Following the model of the government Health Training package, Perform an Electro Magnetic Field (EMF) Balancing Health Assessment is one of the five elective units in the new certificate. So I was intrigued this morning when my friend, Ruth Smith (www.universalsoulworks.com), a woman who keeps her finger on the pulse, forwarded me the latest Jelaila message.
The recent IX-XII training was a blast! Both the two participants from NSW and myself were surprised and delighted as our jointly co-created experience continued to unfold in the energy of infinite potential!
Due to the heatwave, the class was held at the EastWest College, courtesy of the Principal, Linda Borkowski, also shown in the photo. On the corner of Hawthorn Road and Dover Street, the EastWest College is easy to spot and we were warmly welcomed and invited to make ourselves at home - which we did!
Heart and head
Unlike many training programs that engage primarily with mind and head, EMF Balancing engages a potent combination of heart and head. Each successive cycle of phases is primarily about supporting our personal growth and engaging more consciously with the infinite potential of our own core energy. As we continue to engage more consciously with our own infinite potential, we become better attuned to recognizing and supporting the infinite potential of those around us.
As Peggy has continued to experience and work with the new energy through the EMF Balancing Technique®, she has deepened and refined her understanding of it.
We see this in the change of focus between the first cycle of phases, I-IV, and the final cycle, IX-XII. In the first cycle, as the name, Foundations of Evolution suggests, we start with honoring the individual in the energy of love expressed as a nurturing and supporting energy of wholeness: in the final cycle, Freedom in the Energy of Love, we are looking at the archetypes that inform our understanding of who we are in the energy of love – the universal human, the universal parent, the universal beloved, and the emerging evolutionary – and of the mystical relationship and union of the individual I and the infinite I.
Peggy proposes that these downloads of energy provide opportunities for integration that will bring about more of the abilities that are possible with the new energy. This is part of the new expressions of evolutionary intelligence that can enable us to live life more fully, coherently and creatively; part of an upward evolutionary spiral where we practice using our ability to consistently raise our vibrational frequencies and align to new expressions of evolutionary intelligence.
And – the EMF Balancing Technique® provides a foundation for this work in the new energy. To quote Peggy: 'the new energy will bring about the power of love and release the love of power." We are already experiencing a 'new bandwidth of emotions'.
For many people, working out where they fit in and what they are here to do, occupies a major part of their energy.
Spiritual seekers for centuries have recognised that they are spiritual beings living in physical bodies and their lives are about manifesting that spirituality in their bodies to the highest degree possible. Or as The Balancing Work puts it, 'Living the most enlightened life we can'.
Contextualising something is about showing how it fits into the bigger picture. Contextualising EMF Balancing in Australia has been a major element in the development of the Certificate IV in Electro Magnetic Field (EMF) Balancing Technique.
This Certificate IV aims to show where and how EMF Balancing fits into the Health and Wellness Industry in Australia and to provide practitioners with the relevant skills to practice professionally as part of the EMF Balancing industry.

Steelers' secondary missing SS Polamalu in worst way
Steelers' secondary missing SS Polamalu in worst way
Posted Dec. 07, 2009 @ 2:10 p.m.
By Mike Wilkening
When the Raiders, the NFL's worst passing team, carved up the Steelers' secondary in a 27-24 win Sunday at Pittsburgh, it highlighted the limitations of the Pittsburgh pass defense, which sorely misses SS Troy Polamalu.
Oakland, which had thrown five TD passes in its 47 previous quarters, threw three touchdowns in the fourth quarter Sunday. Raiders QB Bruce Gradkowski, a Pennsylvania native, threw for 188 yards in the final period, twice hitting rookie WR Louis Murphy for scores, including the game-wnner with nine seconds left after Murphy worked open in the back of the endzone.
The loss dropped the Steelers to 6-6, which means Pittsburgh might have to win out to have a chance at making the playoffs.
"You know, really not a lot needs to be said in regards to how that game ended," Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Sunday. "I'm not going to make any excuses for it. We didn't make a play. We didn't make a play to win that football game defensively."
With Polamalu (knee) expected to miss Thursday's game at Cleveland, and with starting CB William Gay (concussion) likely questionable and perhaps out for the game, the secondary is both battered and shaken entering the final quarter of the season. Per the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Tomlin indicated Monday that rookie CBs Joe Burnett and Keenan Lewis are likely to play vs. the Browns, and the paper indicated both could start, which would land Ike Taylor on the bench.
The PFW spin
At the .500 mark, and without a single interception from a cornerback this season, it's understandable that Tomlin is considering changes. Taylor has played very well at points of his Steelers career, but he has struggled at others, and he has below-average ball skills. He was benched in 2006 before bouncing back and reclaiming his starting job.
Taylor surrendered a 75-yard TD to Murphy after allowing the rookie receiver to run free deep, ostensibly because he believed he had safety help deep and to his left. However, Taylor was the last line of defense.
"He's supposed to stay inside of him, inside of that man (Murphy) and potentially could pick up some help from the backside," Tomlin said. "Of course, neither happened."
However, benching Taylor and turning to both rookie cornerbacks is not without risk. Browns QB Brady Quinn has played much better of late and threw for 271 yards and three TDs in a loss to San Diego Sunday. If Gay misses the game, Burnett will likely start in his place, with Lewis, who flashed some ability in the summer, likely stepping into Taylor's role.
No matter what the Steelers do at cornerback, the secondary will remain compromised until Polamalu returns. Polamalu, the team leader with three interceptions in only five games played in 2009, is the Steelers' lone blue-chip performer in the secondary. His presence gives the Steelers' efforts vs. the run and pass a tremendous lift and undoubtedly makes offensive coordinators think twice before becoming too aggressive.
That the Steelers miss him this much might just be the catalyst for some personnel changes in the secondary next season. Yes, Polamalu is irreplaceable, but expecting better play out of the pass defense in his absence is not unreasonable.

In her daring documentary debut, Liz Canner tackles deception and possibly criminal behavior in the pharmaceutical companies that seek to sell women solutions to sexual problems that may not exist.
After two years hitting festivals and seeking distribution, the provocative doc, Orgasm Inc., will finally come to theaters in February, but you can check out the trailer now (via Film School Rejects).
In the shocking and hilarious documentary ORGASM INC., filmmaker Liz Canner takes a job editing erotic videos for a drug trial for a pharmaceutical company. Her employer is developing what they hope will be the first Viagra drug for women that wins FDA approval to treat a new disease: Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD). Liz gains permission to film the company for her own documentary. Initially, she plans to create a movie about science and pleasure but she soon begins to suspect that her employer, along with a cadre of other medical companies, might be trying to take advantage of women (and potentially endanger their health) in pursuit of billion dollar profits. ORGASM INC. is a powerful look inside the medical industry and the marketing campaigns that are literally and figuratively reshaping our everyday lives around health, illness, desire — and that ultimate moment: orgasm.
Female health issues are often a topic that gets shelved/ignored/politicized, so I'm not surprised to learn that Canner had a hard time finding distribution. But with the film's incisive eye and keen sense of humor, I'm looking forward to its impending release.
Orgasm Inc. will see a limited release on February 11th, 2011.
How about you? Will you come out for Orgasm Inc?
Every week we dive into the cream of the crop when it comes to home releases, including Blu-ray and DVDs, as well as recommended deals of the week.

Todd Haynes' 1995 film, Safe, turned the high-life of San Fernando Valley into an absolute nightmare. Some would argue that's not exactly a difficult task, but never before had perms and manicures been so frightening. The mundane life and home of "homemaker" Carol White (Juliane Moore) is a disease. When White confronts this illness her life, in some ways, […]

Using MySQL 5.6 Performance Schema in multi-tenant environments
Hosting a shared MySQL instance for your internal or external clients ("multi-tenant") was always a challenge. Multi-tenants approach or a "schema-per-customer" approach is pretty common nowadays to host multiple clients on the same MySQL sever. One of issues of this approach, however, is the lack of visibility: it is hard to tell how many resources (queries, disk, […]
How MySQL 'queries' and 'questions' are measured
MySQL has status variables "questions" and "queries" which are rather close but also a bit different, making it confusing for many people. The manual describing it might not be very easy to understand:
The number of statements executed by the server. This variable includes statements executed within stored programs, unlike the Questions variable. It does not count COM_PING or COM_STATISTICS commands.
The number of statements executed by the server. This includes only statements sent to the server by clients and not statements executed within stored programs, unlike the Queries variable. This variable does not count COM_PING, COM_STATISTICS, COM_STMT_PREPARE, COM_STMT_CLOSE, or COM_STMT_RESET commands.
In a nutshell if you're not using prepared statements the big difference between those is what "Questions" would count stored procedure calls as […]
MySQL server memory usage troubleshooting tips
There are many blog posts already written on topics related to "MySQL server memory usage," but nevertheless there are some who still get confused when troubleshooting issues associated with memory usage for MySQL.

Migrating between MySQL schemas with Percona Xtrabackup
Recently, I was working with a client that asked about using Percona Xtrabackup to take a snapshot of a particular MySQL schema and then reload it with a different schema name on the same server.

MySQL Backup tools used by Percona Remote DBA for MySQL
As part of Percona Remote DBA for MySQL service we recognize that reliable backups are one of the most important things we can bring to the table.

How FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK works with Innodb Tables
Many backup tools including Percona Xtrabackup, MyLVMBackup and others use FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK to temporary make MySQL read only. In many cases the period for which server has to be made read only is very short, just few seconds, yet the impact of FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK can be quite large because […]
Troubleshooting MySQL Memory Usage
One of the most painful troubleshooting tasks with MySQL is troubleshooting memory usage. The problem usually starts like this – you have configured MySQL to use reasonable global buffers, such as innodb_buffer_size, key_buffer_size etc, you have reasonable amount of connections but yet MySQL takes much more memory than you would expect, causing swapping or other […]
Statement based replication with Stored Functions, Triggers and Events
Statement based replication writes the queries that modify data in the Binary Log to replicate them on the slave or to use it as a PITR recovery.

Profiling MySQL stored routines
These days I'm working with a customer who has an application based entirely on stored routines on MySQL side. Even though I haven't worked much with stored procedures, I though it's going to be a piece of cake. In the end – it was, but there's a catch.

Ambience was great the place felt warm and inviting. Our waitress was inexperienced but very sweet. Other staff members were good.
Our meal was booked for 9.00 and I think everything had been ready some time before then or re-heated. The food was all very over cooked except the scallops which were delicious. I had duck hash with a duck egg which was very bland. Main was lamb which was also over cooked with little flavour. Boulangere potato was a dried up mush - very disappointed as I expected so much more from Richard Phillips

Click to enlarge the Opel Flextreme E-Flex concept
We all got a premature look at the Opel's rendition of the GM's E-Flex platform over the weekend, but now we can reveal more details about the new Opel Flextreme concept. The third car uses a 1.3L common rail diesel engine as its range extender. Unlike the four door coupe/sedan styling of the Volt, this one has a mono-box layout with side-opening gullwing-style hatches over the rear cargo area.
The Flextreme has picked up styling cues from GTC concept coupe that debuted last March in Geneva, including the scalloped door panels and rear quarter shoulders. Aside from the styling, another unique feature of the Flextreme is the special cargo hold in the back that comes loaded with two Segway scooters. To ensure that the Segways are always ready to go, the compartment is equipped with charging points for the scooters.
General Motors has now done computer simulations of E-Flex running the European test cycle (ECE R101) that's used to determine fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. The Flextreme scored a CO2 emissions rating of 40g/km which puts it at less than half of the best current production car the Smart ForTwo CDi which scores 88g/km. For more on the Flextreme differences from the Volt and the current state of development, check out AutoblogGreen.

GM Press Release:
Opel Flextreme Concept Expected to Achieve Less Than 40 gm/km CO2 Emissions
Plug-in Electric Vehicle Features 55 Km of Emissions-Free Range
FRANKFURT – General Motors Corp. today unveiled the Opel Flextreme concept electric vehicle, which based on the current European test cycle for plug-in vehicles is expected to emit only 40 g of C02 per kilometer (km), at the International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt.
The Flextreme uses a diesel version of GM's E-Flex electric-drive system. In contrast to conventional vehicles and hybrids, E-Flex uses an electric motor, powered by a large lithium-ion battery, to propel the Flextreme for up to 55 km (34 miles) of electric-drive-only range. A 1.3 L turbo-biodiesel onboard engine creates additional electricity to replenish the battery and extend the vehicle's driving range to a total of 715 km (444 miles). Fully charged, the Flextreme's 55-km all-electric driving range is enough for most daily commuters in Europe to travel without using any diesel fuel or emitting any CO2.
"The Opel Flextreme diesel concept, the third variant of our E-Flex system, is a natural for the Opel/Vauxhall brand in Europe, where it has long been known for technological innovation and strong design," said Bob Lutz, GM Vice Chairman Global Product Development. "Commutes to major city-centers in Europe will do nothing but grow more challenging in the future, and we see E-Flex vehicles as an elegant solution for commuters."
With the E-Flex system, the generator, battery technology, plug and electric motor are the same in each variant – the source of additional electricity is what varies. The Opel Flextreme's 1.3 L common-rail diesel engine, which is not connected to the wheels, features a cylinder pressure-based closed loop process to control the combustion process and further reduce the vehicle's exhaust emissions.
The Flextreme's electric propulsion architecture also supports two Segway electric scooters with docking stations that are integrated into the vehicle's cargo area. The electric scooters are capable of up to 38 km (23 miles) of range, offering European customers greater access to places where cars are not allowed.
The E-Flex system was first shown in the Chevrolet Volt concept, which had its debut in January at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Volt is powered by a 16 kWh lithium-ion battery to power the vehicle for 64 km (40 miles) of all-electric range. A small biofuel engine with a generator is used to extend its range to more than 1000 km (640 miles).
A second E-Flex variant was shown in Shanghai with GM's new fifth-generation fuel cell propulsion technology and an 8 kwh lithium-ion battery to provide up to 483 km (300 miles) of petroleum- and emissions-free electric driving.
GM has initiated production engineering for the E-Flex System. Production timing is dependent on continued advances of key enabling technologies – specifically the development of lithium-ion batteries for hybrid and electric vehicle applications.
"We fully intend to bring this technology to market," said Frank Weber, Vehicle Line Executive and Vehicle Chief Engineer for the E-Flex system. "Although the battery required for the E-Flex system is still being developed, we're increasingly confident that our strategic battery partners – Compact Power, Inc.; and LG Chem, Continental Automotive Systems and A123Systems – will be able to deliver a production-ready battery in the near future."
The presentation of the E-Flex biodiesel variant is the latest step in GM's global efforts to diversify transportation away from petroleum and reduce CO2 emissions with a range of alternatives. These include:
- The 2008 launch of the Opel/Vauxhall Corsa 1.3 CDTI, the premiere model in the ecoFLEX range of vehicles, which emits just 119 g/km of CO2.
- Globally, GM is the leading producer of E85-capable biofuel vehicles, with more than 2 million on the road. This year, Saab will expand the availability of BioPower engines across its 9-3 and 9-5 portfolios, and E85 will be available on Cadillacs this autumn in Europe.
- The introduction of eco-Turbo engines that offer lower consumption and CO2 emissions, with no trade-off in acceleration or top speed compared to the large-displacement engines they replace.
- The introduction of the HydroGen 4 fuel cell vehicle and its inclusion in a global demonstration project to better understand the steps required to move hydrogen fuel cell vehicles toward commercialization.

Pearson LearningStudio has integrated Genius SIS to provide a Web-based student information system for customers.
The integration, which is currently available, provides a registration and reporting system to users of the Pearson LearningStudio and allows schools to manage the admissions process and enrollment as well as monitor student performance and progress and then communicate that progress to both students and guardians.
The integration also automates a number of features such as:
With the automation, information is synchronized between both Pearson LearningStudio and Genius SIS, saving time needed for double-entry of the same data by users. The two systems will also be able to work together. For example, data generated through the use of Pearson LearningStudio can then be reported through Genius.
"The integrated Genius SIS solution will provide customers a simple and straightforward way to manage student data and spend more time focusing on student outcomes," said Mark Russell, vice president of account management operations at Pearson eCollege.
"The addition of Genius SIS has been a tremendous help in managing our online school effectively," said Kate Swistowicz, technology director at the Wyoming e-Academy of Virtual Education. "The simple tasks and reports that occur in Genius let us manage and pace our students in a way that wasn't previously available. We are very happy with the partnership of these two products."

How would you download files from Rapidshare.com with Speed Download? It's a download-manager for Mac(s), but I don't know how to use it with Rapidshare.com
There's a video of the latest version of Speed Download (22.214.171.124) being used in a tutorial: Link to Video
Would any of you please tell me how to make it the default download-manager on a Mac OS X PPC? The Speed Download (version: 184.108.40.206) application doesn't download the files from the url's listed on Rapidshare, unless I use the Safari-browser and drag ".zip"-files & ".rar"-files to Speed Download.
If any of you would give me step-by-step instructions to get files to download from Rapidshare to Speed Download, rather than my web-browser's default download-manager, I'd appreciate your lesson or advice.
Thanks for your time & reading about my situation.

Seating Arrangements (original 2012; edition 2012)

Work details
Seating Arrangements by Maggie Shipstead (2012)
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Here's a quick diagnostic to assess whether you'd enjoy this book:
If someone told you they were wearing seersucker ironically, would you walk away or would you ask how it was working for them?
Seating Arrangements is populated with characters in seersucker, whale belts and pastel pop-collared polos, and very few of them wear--or do--anything with irony. Those that try largely fail. So we are surrounded by Biddy and Mopsy and Oatsie (I kid you not) and more last-names-as-first names than the freshman class of Hah-vahd, all organized around a wedding and the middle-age flailings of Winn Van Meter. It's almost as easy to hate these people as it is to dismiss them.
And yet I didn't hate them or dismiss them. You might (see question above), but I was entertained on nearly every page, and even moved. Maggie Shipstead's writing is superb; I crossed from admiration into envy several times. She manages to weave the back story into the grim present with finesse, and we come to see that for all their stuffy posturing, their suffering (and loyalty) is very real. It's a neat trick, and served up with plenty of laughs.
I wanted to like this book. So many reviews stated laugh out loud funny...I wish I could have found a single part that was funny. All I could find was rich people complaining about their lives and playing the victim.
What a good read this was – rich in detail and characterisation, conveying a strong sense of physical location, as well as the class-conscious demographic among which it is set. The story covers just a couple of days in the lives of the Van Meter family, but with many flashbacks and a perceptive eye for the subtleties of social interaction, it paints a fascinating picture of a troubled family, and in particular its ageing patriarch, Win. He is in many ways a quite appalling character and yet his cringemaking attitudes and actions are explained by his past, and you can't hate him.
It is such a wise book – its wisdom all the better for being understated, whether it is shining a light on the obsession with exclusive clubs and social climbing in a supposedly class-free nation, or just the business of life in general: ("....Dominique didn't know if she was strong or not. All she knew was that her best decisions had been the ones that brought her freedom, but talking about freedom with Biddy would be like explaining Africa to a giraffe that had been born in the Bronx Zoo."). Definitely an author to watch.
Completely engrossing tale of high WASP and wannabee high WASP characters, organized around a weekend wedding on an island in New England. Extremely well written, with most characters full of life and truth. Lots of surprises; no hackneyed plot twists. Hated to finish!
This story revolves around a weekend of wedding preparations for a very pregnant bride, daughter of Winn and Biddy. The entire extended families have convened, as have the bridesmaids and groomsmen. It is a time for reflection and memories, mainly by Winn, the father of the bride, and Livia, the bride's sister. Winn is a pretentious, shallow man whose main goal in life is to achieve membership in an exclusive club that doesn't want him. Livia's main goal is to find a man to replace the one she lost. Agatha, one of the bridesmaids, figures heavily in their drama. This is a well-crafted social satire. The poignancy is limited because the main characters are simply unlikable and self-absorbed, but Maggie Shipstead does an excellent job of portraying them within the confines of their limited lifestyle.

"Winn Van Meter is heading for his family's retreat on the pristine New England island of Waskeke. Normally a haven of calm, for the next three days this sanctuary will be overrun by tipsy revelers as Winn prepares for the marriage of his daughter Daphne to the affable young scion Greyson Duff. Winn's wife, Biddy, has planned the wedding with military precision, but arrangements are sideswept by a storm of salacious misbehavior and intractable lust: Daphne's sister, Livia, who has recently had her heart broken by Teddy Fenn, the son of her father's oldest rival, is an eager target for the seductive wiles of Greyson's best man; Winn, instead of reveling in his patriarchal duties, is tormented by his long-standing crush on Daphne's beguiling bridesmaid Agatha; and the bride and groom find themselves presiding over a spectacle of misplaced desire, marital infidelity, and monumental loss of faith in the rituals of American life"--Dust jacket.… (more)

God created woman after he created man, because woman can be created only afterwards. First you have to create the crude energy and then you can refine it. Refinement cannot come first. And in this allegory there is a message - that every man has to become feminine before he reaches to the seventh. This is at the sixth center. In yoga, the sixth center is called agya chakra - it means the center of will. Agya means order, commandment. It is the most powerful center, the sixth, and many become stuck there. Then they go on playing with spiritual energies and go on doing foolish things. At the sixth center, man has to turn into a woman and his whole will has to be used for only one thing - and that is, he has to will surrender. To will surrender is the greatest thing in the world; and this can be done only if you have willpower - not ordinary, extraordinary willpower.
Ordinarily, you think people who surrender are weaklings - you are wrong. Only very strong people can surrender, surrender needs strength, great strength. If you surrender out of weakness, your surrender is meaningless, impotent. If you surrender out of strength, then your surrender has meaning, significance. At the sixth center, when will comes to its ultimate focusing, surrender is possible. Out of will is created surrender: out of man, God created woman.
At the sixth center.now if you ask the brain surgeons they will also agree with me - they say the brain is divided into two hemispheres: man and woman, the left and the right. The left brain is male and the right brain is female. The right brain is connected with the left hand; that's why the left hand is not appreciated - even condemned. The right hand is associated with the left brain - hence, right seems to be right and left seems to be wrong. It is a man-oriented world, male-dominated world. Right hand is the symbol of male, left hand is the symbol of female. And your head is divided into two hemispheres.
A poet functions from a different part of his head than a logician. A poet is more feminine. It is not just a coincidence that if you look at great poets you will find great femininity, grace, beauty, a charm, a tremendous attraction, a charisma, feminine charisma. If you look at painters you will find them a little effeminate; their dress, their long hair, their way of walking, is more feminine.
Have you ever heard of a bodhisattva the Chinese called Kuan-Yin? In India, there was a very compassionate bodhisattva or Buddhist saint. But when Buddhism reached China, it seemed strange to the Chinese that a man should be so compassionate. So they thought that the saint must be a woman! And so they depicted the saint as a woman and worshipped him as a woman, down the centuries.
The story is of tremendous import. Buddha looks more like a woman than like a man - his face, his grace. The sixth center has been surrendered. Logic has been surrendered to love, argument has been surrendered to feeling; aggression has become reception. conflict has turned into cooperation. Now there is no struggle between the part and the whole; the part is flowing with the whole, the part is in a let-go - the whole has possessed it.
That is the meaning of the Christian allegory that God created man first, and then woman out of man. This is to pay tremendous respect to feminine qualities: they are higher than man, they come out of man, they flower out of man. And then, on the seventh day, God rested. What else can you do when you have come home? Sahasrar is the center of rest, absolute rest - you have arrived; now there is nowhere to go.

What Every Gelato Shop Needs
October 6, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
If you're running a gelato shop, you probably have enough on your mind at any given time when it comes to securing your bottom line and building a profit. However, the biggest one you probably think about constantly is the flavors you serve. After all, above all else, that's what customers are there for, right? They want to enjoy delicious gelato and all that entails
But don't let that focus on your product blind you from other important considerations like, for example, the coffee cups and lids you use. When customers get coffee, are you sure they're getting the best possible cups and lids? This means cups that are nice and comfortable and easy to hold. They should also provide an adequate buffer between your customer's hand and the heat of the coffee inside the cup.
What we're getting at here is that the supplies involved at your gelato shop are hugely important. One trend that's been doing well is personalized ice cream cups. Why? Well, now only do they provide a fun feature to an otherwise ordinary item, but they're also made from high-quality materials that don't betray all the efforts you're making to supply your customers with amazing gelato.
Gelato Products sells everything you need to support a thriving gelato shop. So when you need high-quality gelato supplies (i.e. frozen yogurt paper cups), they're the company to go with due to their superior inventory, prices, customer support and delivery times.

Did you know the first man to become a millionaire from the California gold rush never found an ounce of the precious metal? Not even a flake, in fact. Instead, he was smart enough to set up shop and sell pickaxes instead. Everyone was going to California for the gold and they all needed pickaxes. A millionaire was made.
That's where the saying comes from, "When everyone's digging for gold, sell the pickaxes."
Well there's not much of a gold rush these days, but there are still proverbial pickaxes to be sold. That's because ice cream shop supplies are in higher demand than they have been in years. Why? This is thanks in large part to gelato. This fun cold dessert is even better than ice cream and comes in a ton of new flavors. So we're seeing shops spring up all over the country.
Get in on the action without worrying about all the overhead and the customer pains, by selling off frozen yogurt spoons, cups, covers, napkins and more. As these shops become more and more popular, guess what? You'll make more and more right along with them.
When you need products for your gelato store, it couldn't be easier remembering whom to go to. After all, the store itself is called Gelato Products. There you'll find a gelato suppliers' paradise with things likegelato spoons, cups, napkins, covers and just about anything else you need to make your store a success at a low price.
Supplies for ice cream parlors

When it comes to business, you need to make sure that you get the best out of what you're paying for. And in a world like ours that's obsessed with competition, you need to make sure that you have all your bases covered. If you own an ice cream parlor, you're going to need things like White paper cupsas well as Plastic yogurt spoonsfor your parlor. Basic supplies for your business is important because it represents a substantial portion of your expenses. If you've ever heard the saying that you need to spend money to make money, you'll find that it's not really accurate. Depending on your supplier, you can get way much more for what you pay for. As a business owner, it's important for you to find the best suppliers that can give you the best terms for the best prices as well. Sure, it's not as easy as it sounds, and that's because it really isn't that easy to find good suppliers that you can have a working relationship with. Other than cups and spoons, you will also need to find a supplier for your ingredients such as cream, milk, sugar, and other essential ingredients for your flavor as well. If you already have equipment available that you can use in your parlor, you also need to make sure that you buy them with an agreement for regular maintenance as well as spare parts too. If you have that locked down, then you're all set with your ice cream parlor.
Frozen yogurt cups are affordable and easily personalized as well. This should be one of the first investments you make when opening your own ice cream parlor.
School Fundraising Idea: Ice Cream Shop
June 17, 2014 by admin · Leave a Comment
Written by: Gelato Products
Summary: Ice cream is a good fundraiser, if you know how to properly plan an event. These tips will help you put on an exciting ice cream shop to raise funds for a school or church.
Now that the warm weather is approaching, it's a good time to start fundraising for the coming year. Ice cream can be a great method to bring in extra cash for your class. There are a variety of ways to offer ice cream as a promotion, and build a compelling promotion that gets your community involved. Here are some ideas on how to use ice cream as a fundraiser.
Ice Cream Booth
Running an ice cream booth requires some planning and a good venue. This is a great idea for youth or church groups with access to a hall. Look for a local play at an area theater, then talk with the production team to see if you can sell during intermission. Set up four or five small tables outside the venue, and pick up some ice cream shop supplies so you have cups and spoons. Lids are handy too, so you can sell to people after the show and let them take their dessert home.
There are two ways to charge for the ice cream you sell. You can sell it for a few dollars per scoop, or you can charge a flat fee for entry to your area, and offer free scoops with entry.
Freeze Off
Similar to the ice cream booth, the freeze off gamifies those ideas and turns buying ice cream into a competition. Each scoop should come with a certain number of tickets, and participants use their tickets like a vote. Set buckets out before each flavor you offer, then ask your customers to vote for their favorite flavors. At the end of the event, you announce the different winners and choose tickets from the buckets. Call out the numbers and award the ticket holders with a small donated prize.
Make sure you solicit a donation ahead of time, and offer plenty of ice cream spoons so customers can taste as much as they want to make a decision.
Final Thoughts
Fundraising can turn into a fun event, if you take the time ahead to plan for supplies. If possible, get parents and friends to RSVP ahead of time so you can get a count of ice cream cups and supplies you might need for the event. Be creative and try to incorporate fun ideas, and see if you can get your supplies donated to you from the school or some other organization. You'd be surprised at what you can get if you just ask.

The Perfect Holiday Eyes

During a season of countless holiday parties, from Christmas to New Year's, women desperately scour the web in search of that perfect little black dress. And some women, both young and old, are on the lookout for the perfect pair of eyeglasses.
Unfortunately, quality frames are hard to come by these days, especially if you're shopping online.

March 16, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment
There is nothing better than finding the perfect pair of prescription glasses that reflect your unique style and help you see. Unless of course you purchase it at an incredibly low price from an online company with top-notch customer service. We've scoured the Web to find the best deals on prescription eyeglasses and struck gold when we discovered ZenniOptical.
The first thing that impresses up about Zenni is its extensive online catalog. Zenni offers one of the largest collections of high-quality prescription glasses on the market without sacrificing style. In fact, consumers can choose from the latest materials, shapes and colors to find the perfect pair.
The second major perk when shopping at Zenni is price. The online retailer blew us away with prescription glasses starting at the rock-bottom price of $6! And regardless of which pair you select, you won't be paying a penny more than $50 because Zenni doesn't offer anything over that price.
Finally, we were very impressed by the company's outstanding customer service. Zenni provides its customers with extended phone and email support along with live chat services. In addition, the website is extremely user-friendly with several articles including an easy-to-read ordering guide, size guide and articles on understanding prescriptions and measuring the papillary distance (PD).

New here - whats the difference
What's the difference between this plan and atkins.
Never heard of Paleo?
On Atkins I never ate frankinfoods or potatoes, pasta etc and limited my fruits. Limit my dairy to cream in my once a week cup of coffee.
Now that I have developed allergies to dairy, rice, eggs, gluten and some veges and fruits I am interested in doing something different.
Check the faq sticky at the top, there is a picture that shows the differences
I think Paleo is for you Caty! Its super easy, sounds like you're almost there anyhow. Try doing the challenge we are starting Sept 1st with us.

A sea of blue filled the streets of Rockaway Beach Monday as mourners attended the funeral of an NYPD officer who died after responding to what police say was an intentionally set fire inside a Coney Island high-rise.
Services for Dennis Guerra, 38, were held at St. Rose of Lima Church in Rockaway Beach.
Guerra died last Wednesday after suffering smoke inhalation during the April 6th fire.
His partner, Rosa Rodriguez, was also overcome by smoke and is still recovering in the hospital.
Hundreds of officers gathered outside the church to say goodbye to Guerra, including his commanding officer.
"Dennis was a great cop and even a better person. He served this department with dignity and honor, which is not surprising because he comes from a family of police officers. His father and his uncle are retired. He acted valiantly and heroically when he entered that job and ran into that building along with his partner Rosa Rodriguez. He will forever be remembered and remain in our prayers and our hearts," said NYPD Deputy Inspector Carlos Valdez.
Guerra leaves behind a wife and four children.
Fellow officers say he was famous for his grilling techniques at backyard barbecues.
Among those paying tribute were Mayor Bill de Blasio and Police Commissioner William Bratton, who announced Guerra was posthumously promoted to Detective First Grade.
Guerra's father is a retired NYPD detective.
"He probably never told his dad outright that he wanted to be a cop like him. But he never missed a chance to ask him everything about the adventures of being a New York City Detective," Bratton said.
"This is a police officer that gave his all, that went into a building and all that could go wrong went wrong, and he is no longer here," said Patrolmen's Benevolent Association President Patrick Lynch.
Those who attended Guerra's wake Sunday in Ozone Park say he will be missed.
"He was the best. The best neighbor, the best father, the best son, everything, he was the glue that kept that family together," said one mourner.
"He's a great loss, but he's an angel watching over all the people in blue," said another mourner.
Commissioner Bratton asked Guerra's children to always remember the love and respect that so many have for their dad, and thanked them for sharing him with the NYPD.
Meantime, Marcel Dockery, 16, is charged with second degree murder, arson, assault and reckless endangerment.
Sources say he told police he started the fire because he was bored.

Homeless families surge in Cincinnati
Advocates for the homeless in Cincinnati say they're seeing an unprecedented surge in the number of homeless families in the region.
People who work for agencies that help the homeless tell The Cincinnati Enquirer that they've never seen so many homeless families crowding shelters and living on the streets.
They say a steady reduction in federal money available to help house the homeless is causing the crisis, which is also happening in many other places around the country.
The newspaper reports that the $750,000 projected to be available this year to help the keep Hamilton County families in their homes is one-third of the amount that was available in 2011.
The number of families helped by local agencies has steadily dropped in the recent years.

Lions head coach Johan Ackermann has made changes to his starting XV for Saturday's clash with Western Force in Perth.
After three losses in the first three games of the side's tour of Australia and New Zealand, the Lions coach has decided to act.
In the forwards, Ackermann has made six changes, which includes a new front five. Corne Fourie, Armand van der Merwe and Ruan Dreyer all start, with Rudi Mathee and Franco Mostert the selections in the second row.
Jaco Kriel - who scored in the loss to the Waratahs - and Warren Whiteley are the only survivors in the pack, Warwick Tecklenburg will join them for his third appearance in the Lions' back row.
Only fly-half Marnitz Boshoff manages to retain his place in a back line also featuring six changes, some of which were enforced as Lionel Mapoe, Courtnal Skosan and Derick Minnie have all flown back to South Africa due to injuries.
Full-back Coenie van Wyk and centre Alwyn Hollenbach arrived in Australia on Monday and come straight into the starting XV.
Play-off push
For Western Force, wing Dane Haylett-Petty and lock Wilhelm Steenkamp return to the starting line-up.
Haylett-Petty returns from injury to replace Marcel Brache on the right wing after Brache picked up an ankle injury against the Stormers.
Adam Coleman will drop to the bench in favour of Steenkamp, who returns to the starting XV after being on the bench for the last round.
The Force have retained the remainder of the 23 from last weekend's loss in Cape Town.
Western Force head coach Michael Foley says his side is looking forward to returning to the 'Force Field' on Saturday, with a play-off spot still in their sights.
"We love playing at home and we're looking forward to the game this weekend," said Foley.
"The Lions have proven to be a dangerous side on the back of a strong set piece and their commitment to play for each other, and I believe the boys are refocused and ready to rip in."
Lions: 15 Van Wyk, 14 Jonker, 13 Van Rensburg, 12 Hollenbach, 11 Volmink, 10 Boshoff, 9 Cronje, 1 Fourie, 2 Van der Merwe, 3 Dreyer, 4 Mathee, 5 Mostert, 6 Kriel, 7 Tecklenburg, 8 Whiteley (capt)

Forgiveness. Thankfulness. Hope. Joy. Tolerance.. Care. Humility. The list of our revered values is long and lies within each person. We have only to take a moment to seek the best within us and act upon it.

Ex-England striker Gary Lineker urges Arsenal to buy a striker this month
Gary Lineker believes it is "essential" Arsenal sign a new striker during the transfer window if they want to challenge for major silverware.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is refusing to panic buy a replacement for Olivier Giroud, who has been ruled out until the New Year with a broken tibia.
Giroud's injury has limited Wenger's striking options to Alexis Sanchez, who is more effective as a winger, and the inexperienced Yaya Sanogo and Joel Campbell.
Lukas Podolski can play up front but has been linked with a move away from the Emirates Stadium, while another possibility, Theo Walcott, is sidelined with a knee problem.
Former England marksman Lineker believes Wenger must add firepower to his squad before the transfer window closes on Monday.
"Arsenal needed to sign a forward whether Giroud was injured or not," said Lineker, who was speaking as part of Walkers' 'Do Us A Flavour' campaign.
"Now that he's injured it's essential for them really if they're to compete for major titles
"Forward is one position where they needed to strengthen. You could say in midfield too, but particularly up-front.
"If they could add a player who could guarantee 25-goals a season that would be hugely beneficial to them.
"Arsene has showed a lot of faith in Giroud and he's a good player who will score goals, but he's not hugely prolific and lacks a bit of pace to be that."
Sanchez operated as lone striker in Wednesday night's 1-0 victory over Besiktas and rewarded Wenger's faith by opening his Arsenal account with a goal that secured the Gunners' place in the Champions League group stage.
However, Lineker shares a widely-held belief that the £35million signing from Barcelona is better suited to a wider role.
"Striker isn't Sanchez's natural position, he prefers it out wide, certainly on the right-hand side of a three," Lineker said.
"I'm sure he can play striker because he's a terrific player, but I'm not sure it brings out the best in him.
"He's better when he's facing people and going at them, rather than having his back to goal."

Zileas I heard you guys are considering letting players change champions once they get into games.... but that you would worry about what the group thought... maybe you should consider making the leader have to confirm any champion changes after a player's champion is confirmed..... because some people once they see their group might want to synergize more with their group or change to a slightly different champion for the comp that is being made just my thoughts

I can't even imagine the queue times for those who want to stray from the "meta"
My biggest worry is that people will kick you if you aren't playing one of the "viable" champs regardless of Normal or not. I really enjoy playing Pantheon and Mordekaiser but I know that there's a good chance I'll end up kicked for picking them instead of a more viable top lane champ
