rumhandl, a totally free lesson Loan modification programs usually are not based on your a better standard of home equity. Home equity isn't going to pay your property finance loan. A link appeared to be provided directly by bofa that assured you the words. What is left that you argue? Banks will not want to repossess, foreclose, or maybe possess delinquent financial records. They lose capital. It's not as simple when you taking back your lawnmower through the neighbor. Banks can *definitely* foreclose about a home by using equity. That can be your opinion Real life won't always work according to what you trust is rational belonging to the outside looking for. Banks cannot be biased making use of their programs either.

02 March 2009
Cardiff and its colleagues among Wales' five major universities have announced their intention to act together, combining their strengths and talents to drive forward the knowledge economy in Wales.
Together, Aberystwyth, Bangor, Cardiff, Glamorgan and Swansea Universities represent over 70% of all students in Wales and more than 95% of the nation's research activity. With a combined annual turnover of approaching £1 billion, with a significant contribution from international sources, the big five are a substantial economic generator for Wales.
Working together, Wales' five big research & innovation Universities declared:
"Wales' development needs to be driven by real innovation. Such innovation will come from the depth and breadth of knowledge that our universities represent. We are already collaborating in fields including sustainable development, primary healthcare services, social recovery policies. We know that, collectively, our staff and our students can offer real help to business, the public sector and to individuals. Our first priority will be to help Wales work its way out of the current recession and, beyond that, to create a vibrant knowledge-led society and economy that puts Wales ahead of the game.
"Our five commitments are:
1 Creativity: We will find solutions to business and individual needs which work and can take effect quickly.2 Consultation: We will work with business, the voluntary sector and government to determine what are the real priorities for Wales.3 Capital Investment: We will continue our ambitious capital investment programmes, securing construction jobs and supporting Welsh business by local sourcing of suppliers wherever possible4 Collaboration: We will work with our international business and education partners to build our vision for Wales. Our extensive contacts, from New York to New South Wales, offer expertise in everything from Architecture to Zoology and will be made available to all in Wales for the benefit of Wales.
5 Consensus: We will be part of a One Wales solution, working with government and other partners to inform and develop economic and social policy"We firmly believe that by building on the intellectual capital and academic excellence of our universities, we can help Wales create an innovative and dynamic economy and a just society for the 21st Century."
Welsh Assembly Government Education Minister Jane Hutt said: "The Welsh Assembly Government is committed to partnership working and collaboration across the public sector in Wales. It therefore very much welcomes the Welsh Universities announcement as sees it as a clear sign of the determination of those universities to work in partnership in order to ensure that Wales develops its reputation as world class in research, innovation and development."
The five Vice-Chancellors and their staff are now working together to identify areas where their collective strengths can have an effect. These include:
Research. The universities account for 96% of quality research funding from the Higher Education Council for Wales. Existing partnerships between the five include the new Wales Institute for Social and Economic Research Data and Methods, which is addressing de-industrialisation in Welsh communities. Future partnerships will build on the major strengths of the five, revealed in the independent 2008 Research Assessment Exercise, where more than half of the five's 2,325 academics were assessed as conducting world-leading or internationally significant work.
Business Services. The five universities account for 70% of Wales' Knowledge Transfer Partnerships, which make academic knowledge and skills available to improve the competitiveness of local business. The universities plan to accelerate growth in the number of partnerships, along with further development of business training, professional development and consultancy services.
Students. The universities are a significant provider of skills, with the equivalent of more than 50,000 full-time undergraduates and around 13,000 postgraduate students. There is already co-operation between the five on widening access programmes, to encourage undergraduate applications from families where no-one has been to university before. This will be built on, along with programmes of scholarships and bursaries, to deliver a workforce which maximises the talent and potential of the Welsh people.
International. With a combined total of around 7,000 international students, the five universities offer an important "shop window" on Wales for the world. The universities' overseas profiles will be vital in convincing global companies that Wales is a place they can do business with.

# Don't have XP clear your paging file at shutdown. For security reasons, you can have XP clear your paging file (pagefile.sys) of its contents whenever you shut down. Your paging file is used to store temporary files and data, but when your system shuts down, information stays in the file. Some people prefer to have the paging file cleared at shutdown because sensitive information such as unencrypted passwords sometimes ends up in the file. However, clearing the paging file can slow shutdown times significantly, so if extreme security isn't a high priority, you might not want to clear it. To shut down XP without clearing your paging file, run the Registry Editor (click Start > Run, then type regedit in the Run box) and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager\Memory Management
# Change the value of ClearPageFileAtShutdown to 0. Close the Registry, and restart your computer. Whenever you turn off XP from now on, the paging file won't be cleared, and you should be able to shut down more quickly.

Constantly running in the background of XP are services--processes that help the operating system run or that provide support to applications. Many of these services launch automatically at start-up. While you need many of them, some are not required, and they can slow down your system when they run in the background.
You can disable services at start-up by using the system configuration utility, similar to the way that you halt programs from running at start-up, except that you use the Services tab instead of the Startup tab. But the system configuration utility doesn't necessarily list every service that launches on start-up. A bigger problem is that disabling services is more of shot in the dark than disabling programs. When you disable a program, you can get a sense of what the program does. But when you disable a service through the system configuration utility, there's often no way to know what it does.
* A better way of disabling services at start-up is via the Services computer-management console. Run it by typing services.msc at the command prompt. The Services computer-management console includes a description of all services so that you can know ahead of time whether a particular service is one you want to turn off. It also lets you pause the service so that you can test your machine and see whether that service is needed.
* After you run the console, click the Extended tab. This view will show you a description of each service in the left pane when you highlight the service. The Startup Type column shows you which services launch on start-up--any with Automatic in that field. Click that column to sort together all the services that automatically launch on start-up. Then highlight each of those services and read the descriptions.
* When you find a service you want to disable, right-click it and choose Properties. In the Properties dialog box that appears, choose Manual from the Startup Type drop-down list. The service won't start automatically from now on, but you can start it manually via the console. If you want the service disabled so that it can't be run, choose Disabled. To test the results, turn off any services that you don't want to run by clicking Stop The Service in the left pane, or by right-clicking the service and choosing Stop.
Here is a list of some common services you might want to stop from running at start-up.
Service What it does
Portable Media Serial Number Retrieves the serial number of a portable music player attached to your PC.
Task Scheduler Schedules unattended tasks to be run. If you don't schedule any unattended tasks, turn it off.
Uninterruptible Power Supply Manages an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) connected to your PC.
Automatic Updates Automatically checks for Windows updates. (You can check manually by going to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/.)
Telnet (service available on XP Pro only) Allows a remote user to log in to your computer and run programs. (This will not be found on all versions of XP Pro.)
Wireless Zero Configuration Service Automatically configures a Wi-Fi (802.11) network card. Disable this only if you're not using a Wi-Fi network card.

1. Disable Indexing Services
Indexing Services is a small little program that uses large amounts of RAM and can often make a computer endlessly loud and noisy. This system process indexes and updates lists of all the files that are on your computer. It does this so that when you do a search for something on your computer, it will search faster by scanning the index lists. If you don't search your computer often, or even if you do search often, this system service is completely unnecessary. To disable do the following:
* Go to Start
* Click Settings
* Click Control Panel
* Double-click Add/Remove Programs
* Click the Add/Remove Window Components
* Uncheck the Indexing services
jatin khatri
2. Optimise Display Settings
Windows XP can look sexy but displaying all the visual items can waste system resources. To optimise:
* Go to Start
* Click Settings
* Click Control Panel
* Click System
* Click Advanced tab
* In the Performance tab click Settings
* Leave only the following ticked:
* Show shadows under menus
* Show shadows under mouse pointer
* Show translucent selection rectangle
* Use drop shadows for icons labels on the desktop
* Use visual styles on windows and buttons
jatin khatri
3. Speedup Folder Browsing
You may have noticed that everytime you open my computer to browse folders that there is a slight delay. This is because Windows XP automatically searches for network files and printers everytime you open Windows Explorer. To fix this and to increase browsing significantly:
* Open My Computer
* Click on Tools menu
* Click on Folder Options
* Click on the View tab.
* Uncheck the Automatically search for network folders and printers check box
* Click Apply
* Click Ok
* Reboot your computer
jatin khatri
4. Disable Performance Counters
Windows XP has a performance monitor utility which monitors several areas of your PC's performance. These utilities take up system resources so disabling is a good idea.
To disable:
* download and install the Extensible Performance Counter List
* Then select each counter in turn in the 'Extensible performance counters' window and clear the 'performance counters enabled' checkbox at the bottom.button below
jatin khatri
5. Improve Memory Usage
Cacheman Improves the performance of your computer by optimizing the disk cache, memory and a number of other settings.
Once Installed:
* Go to Show Wizard and select All
* Run all the wizards by selecting Next or Finished until you are back to the main menu. Use the defaults unless you know exactly what you are doing
* Exit and Save Cacheman
* Restart Windows
jatin khatri
6. Optimise your internet connection
There are lots of ways to do this but by far the easiest is to run TCP/IP Optimizer.
* Download and install
* Click the General Settings tab and select your Connection Speed (Kbps)
* Click Network Adapter and choose the interface you use to connect to the Internet
* Check Optimal Settings then Apply
* Reboot
jatin khatri
7. Optimise Your Pagefile
If you give your pagefile a fixed size it saves the operating system from needing to resize the page file.
* Right click on My Computer and select Properties
* Select the Advanced tab
* Under Performance choose the Settings button
* Select the Advanced tab again and under Virtual Memory select Change
* Highlight the drive containing your page file and make the initial Size of the file the same as the Maximum Size of the file.
Windows XP sizes the page file to about 1.5X the amount of actual physical memory by default. While this is good for systems with smaller amounts of memory (under 512MB) it is unlikely that a typical XP desktop system will ever need 1.5 X 512MB or more of virtual memory. If you have less than 512MB of memory, leave the page file at its default size. If you have 512MB or more, change the ratio to 1:1 page file size to physical memory size.
jatin khatri
8. Run BootVis - Improve Boot Times
BootVis will significantly improve boot times
* Download and Run
* Select Trace
* Select Next Boot and Driver Trace
* A Trace Repetitions screen will appear, select Ok and Reboot
* Upon reboot, BootVis will automatically start, analyze and log your system's boot process. When it's done, in the menu go to Trace and select Optimize System
* Reboot.
* When your machine has rebooted wait until you see the Optimizing System box appear. Be patient and wait for the process to complete
jatin khatri
9. Remove the Desktop Picture
Your desktop background consumes a fair amount of memory and can slow the loading time of your system. Removing it will improve performance.
* Right click on Desktop and select Properties
* Select the Desktop tab
* In the Background window select None
* Click Ok
jatin khatri
10. Remove Fonts for Speed
Fonts, especially TrueType fonts, use quite a bit of system resources. For optimal performance, trim your fonts down to just those that you need to use on a daily basis and fonts that applications may require.
* Open Control Panel
* Open Fonts folder
* Move fonts you don't need to a temporary directory (e.g. C:\FONTBKUP?) just in case you need or want to bring a few of them back. The more fonts you uninstall, the more system resources you will gain.

WINOWSXP SECRETS U must kdow ONLY 20 Things
:confused: .......:D
1. It boasts how long it can stay up. Whereas previous versions of Windows were coy about how long they went between boots, XP is positively proud of its stamina. Go to the Command Prompt in the Accessories menu from the All Programs start button option, and then type 'systeminfo'. The computer will produce a lot of useful info, including the uptime. If you want to keep these, type 'systeminfo > info.txt'. This creates a file called info.txt you can look at later with Notepad. (Professional Edition only).
2. You can delete files immediately, without having them move to the Recycle Bin first. Go to the Start menu, select Run... and type 'gpedit.msc'; then select User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Windows Explorer and find the Do not move deleted files to the Recycle Bin setting. Set it. Poking around in gpedit will reveal a great many interface and system options, but take care -- some may stop your computer behaving as you wish. (Professional Edition only).
3. You can lock your XP workstation with two clicks of the mouse. Create a new shortcut on your desktop using a right mouse click, and enter 'rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation' in the location field. Give the shortcut a name you like. That's it -- just double click on it and your computer will be locked. And if that's not easy enough, Windows key + L will do the same.
4. XP hides some system software you might want to remove, such as Windows Messenger, but you can tickle it and make it disgorge everything. Using Notepad or Edit, edit the text file /windows/inf/sysoc.inf, search for the word 'hide' and remove it. You can then go to the Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Windows Components and there will be your prey, exposed and vulnerable.
5. For those skilled in the art of DOS batch files, XP has a number of interesting new commands. These include 'eventcreate' and 'eventtriggers' for creating and watching system events, 'typeperf' for monitoring performance of various subsystems, and 'schtasks' for handling scheduled tasks. As usual, typing the command name followed by /? will give a list of options -- they're all far too baroque to go into here.
6. XP has IP version 6 support -- the next generation of IP. Unfortunately this is more than your ISP has, so you can only experiment with this on your LAN. Type 'ipv6 install' into Run... (it's OK, it won't ruin your existing network setup) and then 'ipv6 /?' at the command line to find out more. If you don't know what IPv6 is, don't worry and don't bother.
7. You can at last get rid of tasks on the computer from the command line by using 'taskkill /pid' and the task number, or just 'tskill' and the process number. Find that out by typing 'tasklist', which will also tell you a lot about what's going on in your system.
8. XP will treat Zip files like folders, which is nice if you've got a fast machine. On slower machines, you can make XP leave zip files well alone by typing 'regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll' at the command line. If you change your mind later, you can put things back as they were by typing 'regsvr32 zipfldr.dll'.
9. XP has ClearType -- Microsoft's anti-aliasing font display technology -- but doesn't have it enabled by default. It's well worth trying, especially if you were there for DOS and all those years of staring at a screen have given you the eyes of an astigmatic bat. To enable ClearType, right click on the desktop, select Properties, Appearance, Effects, select ClearType from the second drop-down menu and enable the selection. Expect best results on laptop displays. If you want to use ClearType on the Welcome login screen as well, set the registry entry HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT/Control Panel/Desktop/FontSmoothingType to 2.
10. You can use Remote Assistance to help a friend who's using network address translation (NAT) on a home network, but not automatically. Get your pal to email you a Remote Assistance invitation and edit the file. Under the RCTICKET attribute will be a NAT IP address, like 192.168.1.10. Replace this with your chum's real IP address -- they can find this out by going to www.whatismyip.com -- and get them to make sure that they've got port 3389 open on their firewall and forwarded to the errant computer.
11. You can run a program as a different user without logging out and back in again. Right click the icon, select Run As... and enter the user name and password you want to use. This only applies for that run. The trick is particularly useful if you need to have administrative permissions to install a program, which many require. Note that you can have some fun by running programs multiple times on the same system as different users, but this can have unforeseen effects.
12. Windows XP can be very insistent about you checking for auto updates, registering a Passport, using Windows Messenger and so on. After a while, the nagging goes away, but if you feel you might slip the bonds of sanity before that point, run Regedit, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Explorer/Advanced and create a DWORD value called EnableBalloonTips with a value of 0.
13. You can start up without needing to enter a user name or password. Select Run... from the start menu and type 'control userpasswords2', which will open the user accounts application. On the Users tab, clear the box for Users Must Enter A User Name And Password To Use This Computer, and click on OK. An Automatically Log On dialog box will appear; enter the user name and password for the account you want to use.
14. Internet Explorer 6 will automatically delete temporary files, but only if you tell it to. Start the browser, select Tools / Internet Options... and Advanced, go down to the Security area and check the box to Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed.
15. XP comes with a free Network Activity Light, just in case you can't see the LEDs twinkle on your network card. Right click on My Network Places on the desktop, then select Properties. Right click on the description for your LAN or dial-up connection, select Properties, then check the Show icon in notification area when connected box. You'll now see a tiny network icon on the right of your task bar that glimmers nicely during network traffic.
16. The Start Menu can be leisurely when it decides to appear, but you can speed things along by changing the registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Desktop/MenuShowDelay from the default 400 to something a little snappier. Like 0.
17. You can rename loads of files at once in Windows Explorer. Highlight a set of files in a window, then right click on one and rename it. All the other files will be renamed to that name, with individual numbers in brackets to distinguish them. Also, in a folder you can arrange icons in alphabetised groups by View, Arrange Icon By... Show In Groups.
18. Windows Media Player will display the cover art for albums as it plays the tracks -- if it found the picture on the Internet when you copied the tracks from the CD. If it didn't, or if you have lots of pre-WMP music files, you can put your own copy of the cover art in the same directory as the tracks. Just call it folder.jpg and Windows Media Player will pick it up and display it.
19. Windows key + Break brings up the System Properties dialogue box; Windows key + D brings up the desktop; Windows key + Tab moves through the taskbar buttons.

If you have to reinstall Windows XP you normally will have to reactivate too. Well not anymore. Just copy wpa.dbl after you activated the first time. It is located in the WINDOWS\system32 folder. Now if you reinstall Windows XP just copy the file back and you're up and running again.

Unlocking WinXP's setupp.ini
WinXP's setupp.ini controls how the CD acts. IE is it an OEM version or retail? First, find your setupp.ini file in the i386 directory on your WinXP CD. Open it up, it'll look something like this:
The Pid value is what we're interested in. What's there now looks like a standard default. There are special numbers that determine if it's a retail, oem, or volume license edition. First, we break down that number into two parts. The first five digits determines how the CD will behave, ie is it a retail cd that lets you clean install or upgrade, or an oem cd that only lets you perform a clean install? The last three digits determines what CD key it will accept. You are able to mix and match these values. For example you could make a WinXP cd that acted like a retail cd, yet accepted OEM keys.
Now, for the actual values. Remember the first and last values are interchangable, but usually you'd keep them as a pair:
Retail = 51882335
Volume License = 51883 270
So if you wanted a retail CD that took retail keys, the last line of your setupp.ini file would read:
And if you wanted a retail CD that took OEM keys, you'd use:
Note that this does NOT get rid of WinXP's activation. Changing the Pid to a Volume License will not bypass activation. You must have a volume license (corporate) key to do so.

I visited an italian deli down the block from me for the first time last night, and among the various prepackaged products was something called 'Lupini Bucket'- a little plastic bucket of coin-shaped beans in salt brine. Having never encountered these before I asked what they were, and the description sounded somewhat like edamame - a salty snacking bean that you pop out of the skin to eat.
So I bought them, and on the way home looked them up on wikipedia and was interested to find that they were a species of bean I hadn't heard of before. I was wondering how I might grow them, as I was sure they would be a tasty and nutritious treat. Well, my enthusiasm was a bit dampened when I tasted them and found that they tasted like I would imagine sweaty feet might. So I guess my question now is two-fold: Can anyone put these beans in context for me (beyond wikipedia)? Any personal experiences? And is there anything I can do to make these things palatable? ~emmers |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've grown them, but only as an ornamental. The lupine it grows on is actually very attractive, with silvery green foliage and white flowers in typical, lupine like stalks. I've cultivated in a manner similar to fava beans, sowing quite early in the greenhouse, and planting out when risk of extremely heavy freezes is over but well before the danger of frost has completely passed. They seem pretty hardy as long as they're not in heavy soil, those I tried where it was clay got root rot and died. They've made some pods and beans, but as I said, I never bothered to try to eat them. Haven't ever even tasted them. I just buy the dried whole lupini beans, imported from Australia actually, at a local grocery store that carries a lot of upscale, gourmet and ethnic products. 1 lb bag costs about $6, but has a lot of seeds in there. They're pretty nice in the flower garden, as a late spring/early summer ephemeral, along the lines of larkspur, bachelor buttons, and California, Shirley, and peony poppies. |
Hi Emmers Many times people buy new foods and if they don't know how to prepare them, they don't have good results. Sometimes they are an acquired taste.:) I love lupini beans aka chocho in other countries. They do require a long process to make them edible... Hi Denninmi It is good to know that you got pretty plants out of them, I have never seen them growing, lupini beans are more of a peasant food not upscale, it should be cheap to obtain the seeds. Here is a recipe for you that are brave, lol. I have to tell you that I like it. Silvia |
Here is a link that might be useful: lupini aka chocho

My Italian grandfather got me into Lupini beans when I was very young. We would eat them while watching baseball. Experiences like this have me eating them to this day. I have not grown any myself. I just buy them at the store. I looked into the process of doing so and the trouble of getting them edible seemed too much for me. There's a lot of soaking and rinsing over days of time to get out the bitter taste. I'm thinking of planting edamame next year because my kids like edamame but not lupini and the effort is next to nothing to prepare them -- just steam and serve perhaps with a little salt sprinkled on top. Hopefully I can figure out how to keep garden pests from munching on the soy plants. |

Ancient country, northwestern Greece. It was bounded by Illyria, Macedonia, Thessaly, Aetolia, Acarnania, and the Ionian Sea. In the Neolithic Period Epirus was populated by peoples from the southwestern Balkans, who brought with them the Greek language and who may have been among the founders of Mycenae. Epirus was the launching area of the Dorian invasions (1100–1000 BC) into Greece. A princess from Epirus was married to Philip II of Macedon; their son was Alexander the Great. The area became a Roman province in the 2nd century BC, and later it was part of the Byzantine Empire. An independent state in 1204 AD, Epirus was taken in 1430 by the Ottoman Turks. Greece gained the southern part of the region by 1919; the northern part is now in southern Albania.

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Crooksie!
Facts about Crooksie
- Breed: Domestic Mediumhair
- Color: Orange Or Red
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Medium
Crooksie's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, declawed, not good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Crooksie is a neutered, declawed male with medium length hair. He was born Jan '06. He's indoors only and his shots are up to date. He wants to be an only cat, he's uncomfortable with other cats, he wants to be the alpha male. He LOVES people, though he's shy at first. When he warms up, he wants belly rubs. He has perfect house manners. He's afraid of kids and hides. Crooksie is a nickname for Crookshank. He is in Ogden, transportation can be provided.
To adopt/foster Crooksie, call (801) 458-7938.
Other Pets at Feline Foundation of Utah
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Crooksie, a Washington Terrace Domestic Mediumhair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Mediumhair for sale in Washington Terrace, or seeking a Domestic Mediumhair cat from a breeder in Washington Terrace.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Washington Terrace already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Washington Terrace breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Mediumhair breeders who help with Domestic Mediumhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Washington Terrace paves the way for another one to be saved.

Our History
During the 22 years under Dr. Gray, Jr.'s leadership, Bright Hope's reputation and influence had extended well beyond North Philadelphia. The mission and ministries of Bright Hope became known throughout the city, state, and country. Dr. and Mrs. William H. Gray, Jr. had two children, Marian and William, III. On January 26, 1972, Reverend Dr. William H. Gray, Jr. was called from labor to reward.
A Phi Beta Kappa and Magna Cum Laude graduate of Morehouse College, Dr. Johnson was awarded the Martin Luther King Jr. and Oprah Winfrey scholarships. He continued his studies at Union Theological Seminary, where he earned a Master of Divinity degree as a Union Scholar, and received the prestigious Maxwell Fellowship, awarded to the seminarian most likely to succeed in parish ministry. Dr. Johnson earned the Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) degree in Organizational Leadership and Transformational Learning from Columbia University.
Whether offering invocations for President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, delivering sermons of inspiration and hope internationally and nationally, being arrested at New York City's One Police Plaza for protesting the unjust NYPD killing of African immigrant, Amadou Diallo, spearheading voter rights' initiatives in Pennsylvania, or leading the charge for educational equity for all Philadelphia public school children, Dr. Johnson is committed to fulfilling his calling as a community-focused and politically-engaged pastor called to a holistic, social gospel ministry. Within seven years of becoming the undershepherd at Bright Hope, more than 1,200 new believers have joined, several new ministries created, and countless hearts have been touched through God's ministry.
Affectionately called "Joshua," Dr. Johnson is an astute clergyman committed to community empowerment and economic development. Recently, under his leadership as President/CEO of Bridge of Hope Community Development Corporation, the CDC built, with The Goldenberg Group, a $100 million, 14-story student apartment tower for Temple University students directly across from the church. Dr. Johnson has promoted economic empowerment by investing and depositing millions of dollars into United Bank, a Philadelphia owned and operated African-American bank. An avid and respected writer, he is a frequent columnist for the oldest continually running African-American newspaper, The Philadelphia Tribune.
He has delivered sermons in distinguished pulpits including the largest Protestant church in the world, Yoido Full Gospel Church, Seoul, South Korea. Dr. Johnson was also the first African-American in 200-years to preach at Africa's oldest Baptist church, Regent Road Baptist in Freetown, Sierra Leone, and later was inspired to raise funds, build, and establish a new church in West Africa—"Bright Hope Baptist Church in Moyamba, Sierra Leone." Additionally, by invitation of the American Jewish Committee, Dr. Johnson traveled to Israel and Palestine and met government leaders to discuss the challenges that exist between the nations.
Currently, Dr. Johnson is Vice-Chair of the Board of Trustees of Lincoln University, and sits on the boards of the Urban League of Philadelphia, the Forum for a Better Pennsylvania, the Mayor's Voter Task Force, and previously served on the Obama Campaign's National African-American Clergy Advisory Board. A recipient of numerous awards and citations, Newsweek featured Dr. Johnson as one of the "up-and-coming" national post-Civil Rights ministers, The Philadelphia Tribune identified him as a "mover-and-shaker" in the City, and Morehouse College inducted him into the prestigious Board of Preachers. He is a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity (Alpha Boulé), and lifetime membership in the Morehouse College National Alumni Association.
He is blessed to share his ministry with his lovely wife, Mrs. Kimya S. P. Johnson, Esq., a labor and employment attorney at the law firm of Cozen O'Connor and a Spelman College, Columbia University, and Case Western Reserve University School of Law graduate. They are the proud parents of their son, Miles Hasani, and two daughters, Laila Rae and Lena Shani.

2013 election will "be bloodier than 2008″ MDC Minister Makone admits!
February 28, 2013 in Uncategorized
"This election is going to be bloodier than 2008, the makings of a horror election is there in front of us for all to see," admitted the MDC Home Affairs Minister, Theresa Makone on S W Radio Africa Hot Seat programme. This raises three questions:
a) MDC has been telling the people to vote yes in the referendum based on the argument that there will be no violence. So why has the party been lying to the people?
b) There were a raft of reforms agreed in the GPA which would have ended Mugabe's dictatorial powers and freed institutions like the Police and Judiciary to carryout their statutory duties in a none partisan manner. Why were the reforms not carried out?
c) You now admit the violence will be bloodier than 2008 because MDC failed to have the reforms implemented. The only way to stop the elections going ahead now is if people vote no in the referendum. Why is MDC not campaigning for a no vote in the referendum and save the nation a "bloodier" election than 2008?
Ultimately it is the people themselves who, in this case, will cast the deciding vote. Are the people going to still vote yes and let the "bloodier" than 2008 elections go ahead? Or will they come to their senses and vote no and save the nation the "horror" they can see with their own eyes and is now within their own voting power to avoid?

Well these have certainly been a wee while coming, but all good things, etc...
Truth is, I've sort of forgotten that any other type of whisky other than 'peated' exists given our recent exploits, but looking back at these labels reminds me that yes. They do indeed exist, and if memory serves, many of them are delicious.
Let's start with the very first Blended Whisky ever produced by That Boutique-y Whisky Company; Blended Whisky Number One.

Glenmorangie's Private Edition range really took the spotlight this year when Jim Murray named the 19 year old, Ealanta, World Whisky of the Year 2014. Jim claimed Ealanta stole the show "because it went out and did something very different: not only did it blow [him] away with its deftness, beauty and elegance, but it gave an aroma and taste profile completely new to [him] in over 30 years of tasting whisky". High praise indeed.
Soon after, Glenmorangie's Director of Distilling, Dr Bill Lumsden, faced the unenviable challenge of creating a follow-up. After such a coveted title, any successor malt would surely pale in comparison, or at least one might think. We were expecting intensity of flavour, perhaps a big dose of sherry this time? Well, rather that playing it safe, Bill took the somewhat risky decision of releasing a red wine finish – something we've seen a lot of over the years, but very rarely done well. In fact, put bluntly, most of the time red wine ruins whisky. I won't name names*, but we've all had an "experimental" whisky buggered up by overdosing with wine casks that have perhaps unnecessary pedigree (aside from marketing purposes, why anyone feels the need to finish in First Growth casks is beyond my understanding!). So – how would Bill's latest fare?

Bruichladdich Day had a Hawaii Five-O theme, with Laddie Five-O celebrating Jim McEwan's 50th year in the whisky business! A themed day! Fantastic, let's get involved!
Now, how does one go about dressing as Hawaii Five-O?... 1970s suits?... It struck us that there was another Hawaii-based investigator with a fantastic theme tune who would provide some much more satisfying fancy dress...

Our trip to Islay had gotten off to a simply dreadful start. Having driven for many, many hours from home, we thought we'd planned for every eventuality. We had stocked the car with at least twenty bottles of booze, a fine selection of meats, and a small travel humidor. Of course we all had our gentlemanly evening wines, stowed in our suitcases, as well as a modest selection of liqueurs, cocktails and Ron de Jeremy. We felt confident we would be making the most of what was, essentially, a week off. More...

Bruichladdich's New Releases for 2010
The Bruichladdich distillery is one of Scotland's most innovative. Their back catalogue is massive, and they are constantly finding new ways of breathing new life into a centuries old industry.
Peating levels, barley strains and distillation methods are all fair game for their whisky alchemy and Jim McEwan, the Master Distiller at 'Laddie, is an ardent fanatic when it comes to sourcing casks – they've used casks from first growth Bordeaux wineries – a 16 year old Château Lafite Finish for example - we've sampled a wonderful Guyanan rum finish and have even witnessed them delve into the occult with the 1989 vintage Black Art, finished in bourbon barrels and a medley of wine casks in the "stygian darkness of Warehouse No.12" (the tin and bottle are even emblazoned with a rather sinister looking pentagram!). More...

The Bruichladdich distillery is Islay's most radical and its innovative practices have brought to bear over 130 different whiskies since the new ownership took the helm at the turn of the millennium; by no means is this your traditional, old fashioned Islay Scotch distiller.
With this in mind, it seems almost odd that Scotland's oldest pot still is to be reinstated at the distillery and returned to its former grandeur once more. "Wash Still Number One" was originally commissioned in 1880 by the Harvey brothers – the founders of Bruichladdich.

I live in zone 5 in upstate NY. I moved here last year after moving from a zone 3-4 area. My last garden had very fertile, rich soil. I alway grew daffs and tulips by the bushel and have never had a problem before. I grew the large King Alfred, and later in the season, the Poeticas would show up after the King Alfreds stopped blooming. I don't think I ever lost a bulb as everything bloomed prolifically. Fast forward to my new house. The first thing I did when I moved here was to test the soil (ph, drainage, etc.). The soil was in terrible shape - very sandy and totally infertile. So I ammended the soil ( peat, compost, cow manure, good top soi). I didn't start gardening yesterday so I know how to fix a soil. I then planted several bushels of daffodils and tulips. I incorporated bonemeal into the soil before planting. Despite all I've done there is not one daffodil that is showing. Not even a leaf, though the tulips are already leafing out. Anyone have any idea what could be wrong? They're planted properly. They were purchased from a top of the line nursery (place I've used for years becaue they have really pristine bulbs), and were planted at the proper depth in a sunny area, with a nice layer of leaf cover to protect against heaving. All the things I did at my last house so I have no idea what could be wrong. Anyone with any information please help. Thanks and sorry for the long posting. Just wanted to add that I planted some in a big pot and am getting the same result. |

Can you dig some up and examine the bulbs? Since the ones in the pot didn't come up either, I'm guessing there was a problem with the entire batch of bulbs. |

Shelby Nichols is an average woman who is married to the only guy she ever fell for. Her life is organized and predictable, revolving around her husband and two children. All that changes the day she stops at the grocery store for some carrots. As the cashier rings up her purchases, a gunman is busy robbing the bank inside the store. When a customer grabs the robber's mask, he is shot and everyone runs for cover. Everyone except Shelby, who finds herself face to face with the killer.
The next thing she knows, she's lying on the floor with a bullet wound to her head. Luckily, the bullet only grazes her scalp, and she doesn't suspect any lasting affects until later, when she suddenly 'hears' what people are thinking. With this uncanny ability, her life takes on a whole new dimension. Her kids think she's bossy and too old to understand them, but that's nothing compared to her husband. He says he loves her, but what is it about the redhead at work that he doesn't want her to know?
As if that isn't enough, the gunman knows she can identify him, and he's out to silence her forever. In her fight to stay alive, she is saved from certain death by a handsome hit-man with ties to organized crime. This pulls Shelby even deeper into danger, where knowing someone's thoughts can not only hurt her feelings, but get her killed.

"Fantastic story and flawless audio! Get it!"
I first bought Carrots for Kindle in 2011 on a whim. Naturally when I got the chance to listen to it as an Audible book I couldn't wait to listen to it.
As a Regional Officer with the British Diplomatic Corps, I travel bi-weekly, usually to a foreign country and usually it is a long, long long airplane trip. So I really want something that will capture my attention, and really pass the time without FEELING like 9, 10, or 11 hours is going by, steadily sucking the will to live from my body like a black hole.
I decided to start getting audible books since I have devices I can use that will enable me to listen in comfort and pass the time.
I was a little concerned about listening to Carrots, as I had read it, and I have just finished the newest book in the series, Trapped by Revenge, the 5th Shelby Nichols adventure. Boy, was I wrong.
Well, was I? There I am, sitting in my seat, and listening to Wendy King's phenomenal audio production, and now I'm gasping out loud. The first time, I knocked my drink over. Next thing I know, I'm laughing out loud, and Mr. 5E sitting next to me thinks I'm taking a nutty. Nothing daunted, I'm worse than the person at the movie theater who then starts talking to the screen: "No, no, don't go in there!" By this time on my overnight flight Mr. 5E is snoring, but I think the flight attendants began rooting about for their Valium reserves.
Fortunately, I was not incarcerated upon landing, but I just loved listening to the book. Possibly more than reading it! It was fresh, it was so well done and so consistently produced that there was nothing to complain about. I was sucked into the story completely, and 8 plus hours seem to pass in the blink of an eye.
It is hard in a way to separate the content of the book from the audio production. The book was incredibly well written, the story very enjoyable, the characters entirely believable, and the quality of the writing fantastic. Equally, Wendy's voice characterizations were right on the money. She puts just enough intonation and inflection into the recordings that you can tell when it's Shelby, you can tell when it's Uncle Joey, and you can tell when it's Ramos. It is what I think of as understated elegance.
I would recommend this Audible book to anyone. The Shelby Nichols adventures stand in and of their own right, but it is far more enjoyable listening to the professional, flawless recording in some ways than reading the book. What it really did was make me want to listen to them all, so I am now eagerly awaiting the release of the next book through Audible.
This is an absolute winner: Do yourself a favor: Get it!
"Great Book. Surprised being read too"
Being able to do other things, like your nails or cooking. Not being interrupted by running to BR. LOL!!!
Shelby. It is so funny at how she gets into so many situations with out trying. She is almost always at the wrong place at the wrong time or else says the wrong thing at the wrong time.(Mentioning Uncle Joey in front of Kate to get a reaction.)
No this was my first audiobook. I really enjoyed it.
At first I was a little skeptical about "listening" to a book. I am glad I have had this opportunity. I can see that it has a lot of advantages. I am game to buy/rent another one. Especially another one of Shelby's Adventures. LOL.I have read all of them so far but now that I have "listened" to Carrots, I am going to go back and re-read them all. It is amazing how much you forget or something else pops out from a former book. Thank you so much for this gift Colleen. Kudos to Shelby's next Adventure.
I will look at "listening" to other books as well from other Authors I love to read.

"Great story line"
Have listened to it again..to see what I might have missed the first time through.The plot is great...it kept you wondering,whats next.
Wendy King is the character.
Will be happy when the rest of the series can be had at audibel..Hope it will be soon!!!!!!
"Where is Book 2?"
I really, really enjoyed this one. I finished it in 2 days. That's like a record for me. It had plenty of humor and suspense to keep me interested. It was a great listen. Lots of fun. I was laughing out loud in my cubicle on some parts. I was disappointed when I did not see book 2. I guess I'll have to buy the print version because I really want to see what happened.
"I thoroughly enjoyed this book"
I very much enjoyed this book. It made me laugh and you could just image the main character. The narrator was very good.
"Interesting listen with a twist, great!"
This is a great cozy, I can't wait for the next installment. The story and characters are easy to follow and the narrator is perfect and does a wonderful job.
Wendy does a fantastic job reading this book, she nails every inflection and switches characters seamlessly.
"Loved It!"
Top 5
Even though mind reading isn't possible, the author and narrator made it believable, I also loved the way all the characters interacted, I felt like I really got to know them.
Shelby for sure! :)
Oh yes, I was laughing out loud quite a bit! Shelby gets in to some pretty interesting predicaments and I love the way she handles everything. She's such a great character!
I loved this book and would highly recommend it! I will be looking for more audible books in the series! :)
"Stuff hapens, and when it does make lemonade..."
This book is not action packed, nor is it a smothering romance... It follows the actions of Shelby, after life dropped kicked her leaving her a parting gift, the ability not so much to read minds as to intercept thoughts. Now it's time for her to put on her big girls panties, kickass boots and develop moxie. In order not to simply keep her and hers safe, but to come out on top... Wiseguys, criminals, and thiefs (in the broad use of the word) beware, here begins the adventures of Shelby Nichols...
We read to know, we are not alone ~ C.S. Lewis
"AudioBook Review Stars: Overall: 4 Narration: 4"
Oh this was a fun story, and the narration provided by Wendy Tremont King provided lots of aural interest as she moves between characters, with subtle and distinct changes to pitch and tone that provided each character with their own particular feel. As the main character, Shelby, her performance managed to incorporate the character's emotions, concerns, patios and sense of 'thinking on her feet' in the delivery: a really good match.
Shelby is your more typical suburban Mom, or was, before a badly aimed gunshot grazed her head and left her able to hear everyone's thoughts. The complications could be endless in this situation: married, kids, grocery shopping, running into a colleague of her husband that doesn't particularly like or respect you. Sure, we think we want to know what people think, but having that much honesty and unfiltered access to someone's thoughts not spoken would be overwhelming. And that is exactly Shelby's reactions. At first.
But, when the realization hits, and it seems that the person who shot her is also gunning for her: poor Shelby, rather reserved, clean spoken, and not particularly good at lying to her husband is tossed into a series of situations that will test her skills and her nerves.
Told in Shelby's point of view, we are able to see that her natural manner of behavior is not to be sly or dishonest, and her habit of speaking first and thinking later combined with her own lack of pretense and agenda in her relationships make her rather a poor judge of character. It isn't until she uses the new gift that she is brought face to face with her own lack of dissembling, and her sharing with us also gives us a unique perspective into the characters: good and bad.
And there are several characters: Shelby's husband Chris is understanding, loves her dearly, and is completely unnerved by her own new skill. Even with his lack of realization of Kate's interest in him in more than a lawyer to lawyer colleague way is rather typically male, he isn't interested, so he doesn't see it. Kate is not particularly likable: even without her overt attentions toward her husband, but there was more beneath her veneer. Uncle Joey and his other associates are rather fun characters: you see the bad guys from the thoughts Shelby shares with us, and through her particular skewed desire to be helpful and wanting to like them.
No, this wasn't a mystery with the culprit a total surprise at the end, but I find those more entertaining: especially when you are led through the story by a character like Shelby. She's just klutzy enough to hint at a Lucille Ball styled character, and like Lucy her intentions are really all good. She just doesn't always see the writing on the wall until it is too late. It was light, fun and entertaining and wrapped up satisfactorily at the end.
I received an AudioBook copy of the title from the publisher via AudioBook Jukebox for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
"A cute story with lovable characters & ok mystery"
My Initial Reaction…
Carrots is a cute story with a good bit of mystery and lovable characters. I wasn't glued to it, but I did enjoy it.
The Narration…
Wendy Tremont King is a new to me narrator and she's solid. I can't quite give her the mad props I give Amanda Ronconi or Bahni Turpin – she doesn't have that extra je ne sais quois they have. But she delivers a nice reading with varied character voices. She was a particularly good fit for Shelby.
The Characters…
The characters were what I liked most about Carrots. Shelby is so relateable and lovable – she's a stay-at-home mom whose life completely changes when she stops one day to get some carrots, gets shot and, as a result, gains the ability to read minds. What I loved best about Shelby was her spunk. She gets herself into some seriously bad situations, but she never whimpers away. She literally tells off a mob boss and it's hilarious. You can't help but love her.
We don't get to know Shelby's husband, Chris, all that well, but I mostly loved him too. It was so refreshing to read a book about a couple who are married, have two kids, and are clearly way past the honeymoon phase and yet so completely in love. I totally respected that he was working with this young, hot lawyer – Kate – who was throwing herself at him and he didn't even give her a second thought beyond working with her. It earned him serious points in my book. What I didn't love about him – he didn't see his wife for all that she was. Shelby is tough and strong and independent – but sometimes he falls into treating her like she's dumb/naive and helpless.
Finally, there's the two main mob characters – Uncle Joey and Ramos. They're supposed to be the bad guys but I was never afraid of them. They were just a bit too nice for the mob. I never believed that they would hurt Shelby, not really. I liked them a lot and found myself really hoping that they would be okay – not even go to prison, honestly. It was the difference between Carrots being a fun, sweet read and an intense read.
The Story…
Carrots begins with Shelby going to the grocery store to get some carrots that she needs for chicken soup. I knew I liked her from this opening scene because her trip to the store went for just carrots to all kinds of junk food. I was laughing at her rationalizations and realized quickly she was a woman after my own heart. Anyway, through a series of unfortunate events, Shelby gets shot and acquires the ability to read minds. And it completely changes her life in cool, but also seriously dangerous ways.
As the story winds together the complications of Shelby's new ability and the danger of being the eyewitness of a crime and builds in fairly ridiculous, but fun ways, until Shelby gets herself into heaps of trouble. I had plenty of eye rolling moments, but if you aren't looking for a serious storyline it's super enjoyable. And one element of the mystery totally through me off and was an actual shocker at the end.
Concluding Sentiments…
If you're looking for a quick, sweet read with lovable characters, you'll enjoy Carrots. It's far from a serious mystery, but that was the beauty of it for me.

California employers have long understood that their survival in the global economy depends on a quality education system capable of preparing students to compete in a highly skilled workforce, and increasingly this requires access to a college degree or other post-secondary training. In its January 2013 report on the California Workforce, the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) found that, based on its 2025 projections, the state economy will need more and more highly educated workers, but the state's education system will fail to meet that demand by at least 1 million college graduates. Education
Backed proposal signed into law in 2013 improving the associate degree for transfer pathway for students (SB 440).
Helped improve alignment in 2012 in the state's workforce needs and education resources (SB 1402).
Supported bills signed into law in 2012 that provide support services to students on the front end of their educational experience, as well as strengthen and focus California career technical education programs (SB 1456, SB 1070).
Supported High-Quality Curriculum and Instruction. Backed 2011 legislation that will increase high school graduation rates, improve the college and workplace readiness of those graduates and train teachers to better prepare California's students to compete in a global economy by emphasizing education programs that provide students with real-world experience and rigorous coursework to help them engage and excel (SB 611, SB 612).
Promoted Student Preparation for Workplace. Advocated passage of legislation in 2010 that will help increase the number of students who go on to obtain a four-year degree by requiring California Community Colleges to offer an associate's degree for transfer (SB 1440); and bills putting California in the best position to meet requirements for federal grants for education (SBX5 4, SBX5 1).
Supported Rigorous Education Standards. Joined former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and other business organizations in arguing in favor of the Algebra I test requirement for eighth graders, the highest mathematics education standard in the nation. Adoption of the standard by the state education board in 2008 will maintain the state's competitiveness and appeal to world-class businesses with high-wage jobs.
Protected hard-won measures to ensure schools are held accountable for student achievement in a court case upholding the high school exit exam and by securing the veto of legislation that would have undermined the effectiveness of the exam by lowering state student proficiency standards (AB 2975).
Growing California's college-educated workforce by 1 million graduates by 2025 is an ambitious, but worthwhile goal, as is increasing the number of high school graduates who are qualified to fill the growing number of middle-skill jobs. It will require that all schools throughout the education pipeline, from K–12 through post-secondary, improve their student outcomes, learn to better articulate with each other, and incorporate meaningful curriculum that aligns with the skills employers are looking for when they hire.
To that end, the CalChamber will continue to advocate for reforms and support legislation and regulations, including those related to the LCFF and Career Pathways Trust, that seek to:

It just makes things so very easy sometimes.
I throw some ingredients in the bowl, turn the pot on, and go off to do other stuff for a few hours while it simmers and cooks and makes a tasty dinner for me.
Lovely, lovely invention.
So this weekeend I tried a new Crockpot recipe – Chicken Tikka Masala. Confession, I have only had real Indian food once in my life, which is sad because once I tasted it I realized just how much I had been missing out. The first time I had Chicken Tikka Masala with warm naan bread and fragrant rice I was a fan for life.
Because of this I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was to find a Slow Cooker Tikka Masala recipe to try at home. It included quite a few more ingredients than I was used to cooking with – and at least one that I was totally unfamiliar with – but I was determined to try it anyway.
How bad could it turn out, after all?
I did make a few alterations to the recipes (of course). I didn't include paprika because I forgot to see if I had any at home already and didn't pick any up at the store. I didn't top with cilantro because I'm not super fond of cilantro, and I skipped the cayenne pepper because I'm not used to making spicy foods and wasn't sure I'd make it too spicy for me to eat.
It also had slightly less Greek yogurt than it was supposed to, but that was only because I'm bad at math.
Even with the intentional (and not so intentional) changes to the recipe I think my Tikka Masala turned out pretty dang tasty. It was a bit sweeter than I expected, but still had a nice spicy undertone. And it smelled AMAZING. All the cinnamon and cumin and Garam Masala (which is a blend of cinnamon and cumin among other things) combined to make an aromatic masterpiece.
My kitchen STILL smells of Indian food a day later and I'm totally okay with that.
I did find myself with a bunch of the sauce part left over, so when I try this recipe again I'll add more chicken (or perhaps chicken in small pieces instead of large chunks). I will also be looking into either making or buying naan bread.
Tikka Masala with rice is delicious. Tikka Masala with warm naan bread is amazing.

Some of our detractors have suggested that in our attempt to include all people, we have abandoned the concept of sin. Not so. In both the Hebrew and Greek languages, the word translated "sin" is based on a metaphor taken from hunting. Both the Hebrew chatah' and the Greek hamartia originally meant that the hunter missed what he was shooting at. The arrow fell short of the target.

Under sense 4 of reaction, I found "A movement towards the reversal of an existing tendency or state of things, esp. in politics; a return, or desire to return, to a previous condition of affairs; a revulsion of feeling."

The new Roundabout Theatre Company production of the classic Noel Coward play Present Laughter begins performances today at the American Airlines Theatre on Broadway. Broadway veteran Victor Garber (Alias and Eli Stone on TV, Titanic on film, and most recently on Broadway in Yasmina Reza's Art) stars in the comedy as a vainglorious actor whose life is made quite chaotic by the sudden arrival of troublesome theater folk and equally troublesome women. Also starring in the production, which is directed by Nicholas Martin (The 39 Steps, Mauritius), is Tony Award winner Harriet Harris (Thoroughly Modern Millie) and Brooks Ashmanskas (Fame Becomes Me). A limited run production, Present Laughter is scheduled to play on Broadway through March 21.

I am a fully qualified Bowen Therapist using the neuro-structural integrated technique and I am also a committee member of the Bowen Therapist Professional Association (BTPA). This gives you the comfort and security of continual professional development and proficiency of my work. I have been lucky enough to find Bowen and start my own exciting adventure as a human and equine Bowen Therapist. It seemed logical to combine my life experience and passions into one and create a career from aspects that I live my life by. My intention is to use this technique as much as possible, on as many people and horses as possible, and to provide a more holistic approach to therapy. To be a source of information on whole health to include nutrition, tissue salts alongside my treatment. This gives me the skills that contribute towards happier, healthier lifestyles. My aim is to spread the word that Bowen Therapy is widely available and a viable and accessible treatment option in many different scenarios.
Bowen allows the body to make the change it needs to make. It means trusting that, with the right kind of stimulation, the body can be prompted to make changes on any level - whether that change is physical, emotional or psychological, in order to bring about positive improvements in health. When we allow the body to make the changes that it needs to make, rather than imposing our own judgment as to what needs to be changed, then we are being truly holistic.
