New research shows that you have a finite store of this valuable cognitive currency, so spend it the smart way
Ever heard a doughnut cry out your name? It happens to me every time I pass
my neighborhood bakery and inhale that intoxicating, sugary smell. Most days,
I'm able to resist. But sometimes, before I know it, I've broken one of my primary
New Year's resolutions and stuffed two into my mouth. What happened to my willpower?
Many of us struggle with that vexing challenge--whether it's sticking to a new
diet or resisting a shopping spree. Why is our self-control so strong on some
days and so weak on others? Contrary to popular belief, willpower is not dependent
on psychological strength alone. Physiological factors, such as blood sugar,
brain chemistry, and hormones, also influence--and can undermine--our powers
of self-restraint. The good news: "Once you understand the forces that
weaken your self-control, you can do a lot to strengthen it," says Kathleen
D. Vohs, PhD, associate professor of consumer psychology at the Carlson School
of Management in Minneapolis. Here's how to reinforce your willpower so it's
ready when you need it.
Budget your resolve: Each of us has a limited supply of self-control, which
means if you try to exert it in too many areas at once, you'll rapidly deplete
your reserve. A study from Case Western Reserve University illustrates the point.
Researchers placed freshly baked chocolate chip cookies before two groups of
participants, instructing one group to eat two or three and the other to eat
radishes (while watching the others partake). Then everyone was asked to try
to solve an impossible puzzle. Participants who had to resist the treats gave
up on the problem twice as fast as those who were allowed to indulge. "Willpower
is like gas in your car," says Vohs. "When you resist something tempting,
you use some up. The more you resist, the emptier your tank gets, until you
run out of gas."
Tip: Concentrate your willpower where you need it most. Don't
try to cut down on your computer chat time and lose weight at the same time.
If you've spent the whole day fighting the urge to tell off a difficult colleague,
don't go shopping after work. Vohs found that people were willing to purchase
more when their willpower had been drained by a previous unrelated exercise
in self-control.

The bright, sugary cereal box is just at eye level. The bold blue, red, orange, pink and yellow jump out and grab the eyes. The free DVD inside puts the situation over the top and immediately the box is off the shelf and in the hands of your child. And then the most feared words in history are spoken: "Mom, can I have this?"
We live in a "Want, Therefore-I-Get" society. Our children completely understand that concept. Just zip the plastic card through any machine and you get what you want! From a bag of fries at McDonald's to an iPod at Macy's, anything is possible with THE CARD.
But, what are we really teaching our kids? We know that actions speak louder than words. We are teaching them to buy with credit, that everything comes easily, and that you can have anything you want.
We must assume that those thoughts are a direct reflection of our economy today. In the last 15 years, credit card debt has risen from $3,000 per household to almost $10,000 per household. According to Business Week, there are 64.6 people per credit card in India, but five credit cards per person in the United States! Home equity is at its lowest point since 1950 (below 50 percent), and, for the first time since the great depression, the savings rate is in the negative. So, the next time your kids say "I want," try these 10 tips to teach them about money.
1. Just say no! If you have young children, just say no! They don't have to have everything they see! We live in a society of instant gratification. Teach children how to wait and earn what they want.
2. Teach them to procrastinate on purchases. Half the things we want are impulse desires. Make your children wait a week and see if they still "have to have it." This will teach them to think rationally about purchases and consider each decision thoroughly.
3. Create jobs for your children at an early age. Make them earn an allowance. This is a good habit to start and can last a lifetime.
4. Create a budget. You can't get ahead in the money game if you don't know where the money is going. Save first, give to others second, spend third. Allowing your children in on this process will help them appreciate where money goes and what it takes to run a household.
5. Make them question their spending. Do you really need that purse? Or those concert tickets? Or that new videogame? Have them weigh the pros and cons of the purchase versus the money that could be saved and used towards something in the long run.
6. Help them to pay themselves first. Be an automatic saver. Make them immediately save a portion of their income. Open a savings account for them with a small minimum and take them to the bank with you. Have them put part of their allowance or earnings away each month. They will see how compound interest can work for you, not against you!
7. Teach them about the power of compound interest. It is "the most powerful force in the universe," according to Albert Einstein. Compound interest is how you can become a millionaire by investing only $25 a month over the course of a lifetime. The goal: get higher interest rates, and double your money faster! This creates great incentive to save that money instead of spending it right away.
8. Explain how compound interest can work against them. Have them pay back "loans" from friends or family quickly. Explain how banks charge a fee called "interest" on money they lend. Pay off your debt to those who've lent money so that you aren't paying unnecessary fees.
9. Have them read about the rules of money. Education is the key. There are thousands of great books about what to do with money. Instead of playing with videogames, educate! We suggest ABCs of Making Money for Teens by Denis Cauvier and Alan Lysaght.
10. Give back. Teaching children to give back is so important. Be an example and donate money and share this experience with your kids. Help them research different organizations so they can find a cause that they truly have interest in. Giving is what makes you happy anyway, not money!
Now you know! Imagine our society as a place where we show our next generation that hard work pays off. This doesn't mean they can't have fun. It just means we show them how to work hard, save, and be responsible with money. Money and time are valuable assets — way too valuable to neglect, just like our children!

BCB has to take responsibility for:
1. They were far bellow the standard in handling young boys.
2. They are too slow in improving the cricketing facilities all over the country, like stadiums & pitches
3. Too slow in providing adequate facilities like Gym, Bowling Machines, indoor facilities, cricketing gears etc
4. Couldn't arrange good competitive cricket allover the country, school cricket to national all are being staged just in name sake.
5. Lack of proper coaches is so prominent, that you see basic mistakes at the top level. Needs to make it mandatory for the teams to have qualified coaches. Even the school cricket needs to get good coaches on regular basis, the explayers may be trained and used for them.
They clearly don't have any vision.
Having said that, all these problems can't be solved in one go. It needs time and more time to get results from the changes.

This has replaced MAC All That Glitters for me not only because of the great price, but also because it's slightly warmer, slightly more shimmery but not overly so, and is actually more pigmented. Drugstore eyeshadow for $3? Go figure.
I have never used the provided sponge to apply my eyeshadow until using this shadow. It's incredibly forgiving and easy to apply. I also use this as a highlighter for a healthy glow. Amazing product for the price. This will stay in my bag for the foreseeable future.

I don't wear eye shadow.... but when I seldom do, one of the few I can tolerate is this.

I have to admit I'm not always super creative with my makeup on most mornings. This eyeshadow is part of my go-to eye look: applied with the sponge tip all over the lid, blended into the crease with a fluffy brush, and topped with liquid liner in a semi cat-eye shape. Done! But really, this is a wonderful basic staple champagne-ish color. The color is so neutral and perfect, it really catches the light in such different ways. You get a generous amount of product for your money as well.

I didn't think I would use eyeshadow regularly until Mink happened. Fantatic natural-looking pop of shimmer.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I've been buying this shade for what feels like over 10 years, and I hope they never stop making it! It's beautiful, a very versatile pink champagne shade that somehow changes colors depending on where it's applied. One it hits the shadows of your crease, it looks like you've put on two shades. Just simple and gorgeous. I always apply mine wet, with my finger, for maximum impact. The only complaint I have is that when it's new, it has a little film over it, so you have to wait until you've used it a bit, or use something to scrape off the top layer.
9 out of 10 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
DUPE confirmed. This is dead on for Mac All That Glitters...like dozens have already mentioned here; I had to test it out for myself. Good thing I didn't buy any more backups for ATG. Save the additional $11 on Mac because this retails for about $3.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Love me some Cover Girl Mink. This color looks so pretty on my cool skin and green eyes. I reach for this for a pretty, neutral, everyday look. Perfect for the office or lazy weekends.
I actually like the packaging. The case is sturdy and the container is long, not round like MAC shadows. Of course I ditch the cheap applicator and use my own eyeshadow brushes. It's easier to get the product out of this than with a small, round pot. The color payoff is not too bad for drugstore. I'm loving Cover Girl products way more than Maybelline these days which used to not be the case.
Every girl needs some Mink in her collection.
7 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
In summer we tend to buy gold bronze eyeshadows and throw them out after we are tired of them. But this one is perfect and i don't think i'll get tired of it. I put this all over the lid and crease and put a dark brown eyeshadow in the outer crease, put a little bit of brown eyeliner on the outer top lashline and outer bottom lashline and mascara. And the look is so perfect for summer and it looks like a look using the urban decay NAKED palette it's that pretty.But usually for school I put this in the outer corner and some mascara and it makes my brown eyes POP so beautiful yeah that's all I have to say I love this.
More reviews by neffymakeupxoxo
This is a really great eyeshadow for everyday use and I think it would compliment a lot of different skin tones and eye colours. I find some of the top layers of these eyeshadows thou to be really dry but once you use that top layer up its as smooth as ever adn pigmented! Covergirl really has improved the quality of their eyeshadows over the years.
I have to join the love fest. This is a pretty neutral and the shimmer gives it a little pop. I use this on the lid and can dress it up by using a range of crease/brow colors. I like to use crazy color eyeliners, so using Mink as the lid color helps to keep me from looking like a clown.
To summarize, Mink is the like the black t-shirt. It is a staple that pretty much goes with everything.

Recipe by jakeandbarb
"This is a simple appetizer that is great for breakfast or brunch we make them every year for Christmas morning brunch."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale
Sort stores by
Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (32 ounce) package tater tots
2 pounds sliced bacon, cut in half
6 slices American cheese
The people at the party who like bland food liked these. We dipped them in onion blossom dip. Those who prefer more developed tastes had the bacon wrapped water chestnuts I baked besides these. Still, I have made them now several times because people like them a lot! TIPS: 1) Do not pre-bake the tots. All I did is wrap them with the bacon and put in the fridge. When I could stick a toothpick through them, I was did so. 2) Make sure to turn them over 1/2 way through cooking. 3) Make sure the bacon is wrapped all the way around the tot (not center cut bacon, unless you use the whole piece) or the tot may fall apart. 4) I do not add the cheese...seems too messy for me! 5) Experiment with different flavors of bacon - they are all fun! 6) I line the cookie sheet with aluminum foil. 7) I bake these at a higher temp (400 - 450, depending on how hot your oven gets) so the bacon crisps. 8) Make sure to leave adequate space when baking any bacon wrapped appetizer. If you put them too close together, they will steam, and the bacon will not get crispy!
These were really good! A little involved to make, but good! BUT, don't leave them in near as long as it says. The cheese completely melted and burned away. You probably only need to leave them in for 15 - 20 minutes because the tater tots and bacon are already pre-cooked a bit. Leaving them in for 30 minutes was just way too long for the cheese!
25 Ratings
This is an old one! I used to make these back in the 80's and everyone loved them. Very good with a spicy honey mustard sauce for dipping.
Delicious! I made them a bit differently than the posted recipe. I didn't pre-cook the taters or bacon. I put the tater tots in the fridge for about 30 mins, just long enough so a toothpick would go through them. I then wrapped the tater tots in half-slices of bacon and secured them with wet toothpicks. I seasoned with lemon pepper and salt. I put them in the oven at 450 for 20 mins, flipping over 10 mins in. They're great dipped in maple syrup. I'll definitely make these again.
I am shocked that this recipe hasn't gotten better reviews. I made these for a New Years Eve party, and every single person who had them, loved them! And I continued to be asked to bring them to other parties, in which they gain even more fans. Sure, they are a little messy to make... but who doesn't love bacon, tater tots, and american cheese?!?! YUMMY!!!! If you find them too salty, then you may have to try a different bacon. Line the pan with aluminum foil to aid in clean up.
I added jalapenos and now i can never go to a superbowl without making a ton of these
Very tasty. These were so good and they are easy to make but very time consuming. I did not want my cheese to melt out so I did not wrap it with the bacon. When the wrapped tots were done cooking I laid the piece of cheese on top of each wrapped tot and put them back into the oven long enough to melt the cheese.
This is a delicious recipe. I omit the cheese and wrap a 1/3 slice of uncooked bacon around a mostly thawed tot! Comes out perfect.

About Pets Fur People
About Our Shelter...
The Humane Society of East Texas was established in 1963 by concerned citizens after they visited the City of Tyler's inadequate animal impoundment facility. In 2013 we changed our name to Pets Fur People. The focuses shifted to promoting spay and neuter options, educating the community, and emptying the kennels in a good way. The public continues to view the shelter as a public entity and is typically unaware that it receives no public funding or support from national organizations. All funding for the shelter is obtained through adoptions (18 percent), contributions (37 percent), and fundraisers (42 percent).Come Meet Our Pets...
The shelter is located at 1823 CR 386, Tyler, TX 75708Animals are available for adoption Tuesday - Sunday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Lush gift sets are another gift I think you cant go wrong with - every set has something unique and handmade, and you can usually smell the present in it's wrapping under the tree before you've even opened it. I received the Stardust gift set this year and it. is. a. dream. It smells absolutely delicious, each product is so pretty and to top it off, it comes in a pink glittery star shaped box!
The box contains:
❤ Snow Globe soap - designed to look like a shaken up snow globe, made with lemongrass and citrus.
❤ Magic Wand - a reusable bubble bar version of the Snow Fairy shower gel. You wave your wand in your bath water and set it aside once you're happy with the amount of bubbles.
❤ Snow Fairy shower gel - the best shower gel in the world with a scent of pear drops and candy floss.
❤ Shimmy Shimmy - a glitter bar made with Cocoa and Shea butter. You can use this to highlight various areas of the body for nights out.
❤ Candy Mountain - a pink and green bubble bar for your bath that smells delicious!
❤ Party Popper - a bath bomb complete with popping candy and confetti, made with honeydew and melon soap.
I couldn't be happier with this gift! I've yet to use any of the products, partly because they're so pretty I just want to keep them. I'm going to use Party Popper later this evening while I get ready for NYE, I may even use Shimmy Shimmy for a little New Years glitter! I wish they sold this set all year round, it's so lovely, I'll be stocking up next year!
Which Lush products do you swear by? Have you tried any of their limited edition Christmas sets?

Dr. Golian's practice of interventional pain medicine is a combination of conservative therapy and minimally invasive pain management. Dr. Golian's approach to each patient is as individualized as the patient she sees in consultation. Rather than starting or continuing long-term medication typically prescribed for the treatment of pain, Dr. Golian relies on a trial of physical therapy as well as non-surgical interventional modalities to target the root of each person's painful symptoms, directly treating the cause. Dr. Golian's ultimate goal is to get her patients to become pain-free, enabling them to lead their best lives.

It made claims that the body of a mermaid or perhaps a merman was found washed up on a beach and found by two boys. Then it was secretly taken away by the US navy. The video of this mermaid was of such poor quality that it didn't prove anything. It also gave a link to a web-site called http://believeinmermaids.com/, but when you go to it, there is nothing but a sign saying the website was closed down by homeland security, (I assume in USA). All very dramatic, I suppose, but more likely a hoax.
The video made some incredible claims, like fishermen have found spears in large fish and whales, and claim that aquatic humans make spears and hunt fish and sea mammals with them. The problem is, that it would be very difficult, to make any sort of spear while swimming in the ocean, these aquatic humans would have to come to land to do this. Then, when they try to make spears on land, they surely would be spotted far too often, by land based humans.
Yet within the documentary was some interesting information. It mentioned the Aquatic Ape Theory, and brought it to many people's attention, who never heard of it before. It even mentioned parts of the Aquatic Ape Theory, like wading as the reason why humans walk upright. Why we have subcutaneous fat around the bodies of humans to keep us warm in the water. Also why we have larger brains than any other ape, because of the sea food diet that has more brain food in it, than food we obtain from land. The documentary also had a big effect on my blogs and videos on my mermaid theory.
"GOLDEN Mermaid Found DEAD on Lonely Florida Beach Mermaid or Sea Monster?
Item number: 300006962914
While exploring desolate areas of Fort Desoto Beach at the southern end of St. Petersburg, here in Florida, I came upon a rather startling discovery. Before me lay what at first appeared to be a very large strange fish. Shocked and amazed, I realized I had found another mermaid or sea monster.
I went back to my car to get my camera. My hands were shaking as I tried to calm down to take these photos. This Mermaid or Sea monster, you be the judge, is a few inches shy of being 5 feet long. Laying on a fresh natural bed of seaweed, this create of the sea looks out as if still alive. What killed this mystery from the depths?"

Does anybody happen to know how the inner workings of a faucet with a spray hose work? When the water is on and I activate the spray, I only get a slow flow out the spray nozzle. Then when I release the spray, the main faucet doesn't flow at all. I have to turn off the water and wait a short spell for the faucet to flow again.
Thank you for your help Tim |
Follow-Up Postings:
Somewhere in that faucet there is a piece,normally brass, that moves up and down when you push the spray. It sounds like this piece is sticking. The only way I know to cure the problem is to take the faucet apart and find that piece and try cleaning it with somethink like vinegar. |
tim45z10, it may be that one phone call to the manufacturer gets you a new faucet. Call them. |

By the early 1960s, Bank procedures and policies were viewed by some on the outside as old fashioned – "antediluvian" in the words of a major borrower – and the Bank was increasingly criticized as being too conservative. When George Woods arrived at the Bank, he found the institution ready to catch its second wind. The outside environment provided the opportunity. As soon as President John F. Kennedy took office, he launched the Alliance for Progress. There was a new spirit in Washington and renewed enthusiasm for development aid. At no time since the Marshall Plan were there such a community of interests and favorable environment for international cooperation. The idea of a compact with borrowers undertaking to reorder their economies and donors pledging increased support became a new challenge. I was privileged to be a witness at the launching of the Alliance in Punta del Este in 1961. Che Guevara was there, representing Cuba. The forces of change were already on the move. The idea of the Alliance was visionary, and it was as generous as it was ahead of its time. Few countries then were ready to make the necessary adjustments to their economies and one has to wait until the oil shocks and the world inflation of the 1970s for a larger number of countries to initiate such a process. By then, unfortunately, the support they needed to facilitate this adjustment was on the decline.
The Alliance had an important effect on the Bank. Increased aid in response to economic performance, donor cooperation, and coordination were features of the early 1960s. The Bank's economic work was considerably strengthened and became increasingly policy-oriented. Lawyers had exercised the dominant influence in the Bank in the early years, contributing ideas and concepts; the 1960s became the economists' golden age. An Economic Committee was established on a par with the Loan Committee. Economists were appointed as managers in the Projects Departments, to improve the economic methodology and the policy links.
This was also a period of close cooperation with the International Monetary Fund. The lines were sometimes temporarily blurred, with the recognition that stabilization of any economy, in order to endure, had to be based on medium-term adjustment and a resumption of longer-term growth. In Argentina, the Bank negotiated exchange rate adjustments while the Fund concerned itself with the rehabilitation of the railways as a condition for its financial assistance.
Cooperation between the Bank, the Fund, and bilateral aid agencies was particularly close when Colombia's borrowing needs were approached in a comprehensive manner based on a medium-term investment plan. The economic dialogue that followed provided the context in which subsequent Bank operations developed. It covered several of the features which are found today [1984] in the more comprehensive approach of current structural adjustment loans. In January 1963 the first Consultative Group meeting organized by the Bank was held for Colombia. Burke Knapp, then the Bank's Vice President, chaired the opening meeting. The Fund was represented by Per Jacobsson, its Managing Director.
The Colombian case and the aid program for Chile represented successful approaches to consultation between donors and recipient countries. At the same time, there were hushed references in the corridors of the Bank about other instances where the use of lending to influence policy had cooled relations between the Bank and some of its major members.
Under George Woods, the Bank evolved from a development institution toward a full-service development institution. One of his major contributions was to push the Bank into new lending for agriculture and education. Until then, lending for agriculture had been confined to brick and mortar, to infrastructure projects like dams, and to financial institutions as a channel for financial credits. Still, despite George Woods' efforts and until the arrival of Robert McNamara, lending for agriculture remained of the traditional type, predominantly plantation or commercial agriculture, largely influenced by the experience of former colonial agricultural officers who constituted a large proportion of the Bank's agricultural staff. By the time I came to the Bank's West Africa Regional Office in 1968, the Bank had financed only one agricultural project in the 24 countries of the region.
Cooperation with other UN agencies developed rapidly under George Woods. Consultative Groups for coordinating aid efforts were established for a number of countries. Many African countries that had recently become independent joined the Bank in the early 1960s, and aid began to be reoriented toward the poorest. Market rates of interest at a premium over Bank lending rates were introduced for a short while, to push higher-income countries to the capital market. This led to the voluntary graduation of some countries like Norway. The Young Professional Program was established in 1963 to recruit staff straight from universities or early in their careers to broaden international recruitment and strengthen the institution through greater cultural diversity.
To those who knew him well, George Woods was an inspiring force. He had vision and his instincts were sure; he knew the complexity and the many dimensions of development. I remember him asking about the progress of the El Chocon Project in Argentina. When I told him that the rate of return was still hovering around 6 percent, he replied that only small people thought exclusively in terms of rate of return. He knew that the rate of return was only discipline and that there were other dimensions that affected development. He was a precursor of important things to come, and he opened the door for the expansion of our activities in the social sector.
Although George Woods never struck a good rapport with our African members, by pushing lending for agriculture and education, by pressing hard for a larger replenishment of IDA, by establishing the first regional resident mission if Africa, and by commissioning two important studies on that region, he did more for the poorest countries, and particularly for Africa, than anyone in the Bank had done before. George Woods, through the force of his personality had reinforced the presidential character of the institution. Like his predecessor, Eugene Black, he was aided by a group of Executive Directors of considerable stature, many of them having occupied the most senior financial posts in their own countries, and by a group of very able senior administrators. Perhaps as remarkable during these early years was the ability of the institution to attract staff with a high degree of expertise, experience, and commitment who established very early the reputation of high professionalism which the Bank has enjoyed ever since. Burke Knapp, as Vice President and Chairman of the Loan Committee under three Presidents, provided firmness, continuity, and predictability to the direction of our operations as well as motivation and trust, sometimes under trying circumstances; he invited me to join the Bank in 1952 and as my mentor for so many years I cannot fail to express the debt of gratitude we have toward him.
By the mid-1960s, the U.S. role as a leader of development aid was rapidly fading. George Woods sensed the need for mobilizing greater support for our institutions. He commissioned a review of the criteria for IDA lending and, more important, launched the idea of a "grand assize," an international commission of influential opinion-makers under the chairmanship of Lester Pearson, former Prime Minister of Canada. The IDA review and the establishment of the Pearson Commission were not completed under George Woods. However, the stage was set for a further deepening of our understanding of the process of development, for our preoccupation with absolute poverty and social justice, for the strong and enlightened leadership, and for the frenetic activity that characterized the presidency of Robert McNamara.

I'm serious. You can tell your boss, "Go to hell!" without getting fired. The best part is that you feel good afterwards and keep your job. You may even get better at your responsibilities and get along better with your boss.
You may be wondering, "How can I partake in this much needed expression?" The answer: hypnotherapy; but not just any hypnotherapy, Heart Centered Hypnotherapy. Heart Centered Hypnotherapy is an amazing technique that allows the release of negative emotions surrounding an event(s) or person. Not only do you get to release the negative emotions, you get to replace them with healthy, positive ones that you choose in your session.
The result? Immediate relief from stress or emotional pain. The majority of people experience relief after their first session that continues the more they work through their challenges. My clients report feeling as if they had gone through as much as one year of therapy in one session! (I'd like to think it is because I'm a pretty awesome therapist.)
Overview of a Heart Centered Hypnotherapy Session
- The therapist will have the room already set up for your session.
- Couch or mat with pillow
- Punching Bag (I use Everlast) with the hose
- Tranquil music
- You come into the therapist's office and have a seat.
- You talk about what you'd like to work on and identify a particular feeling you'd like to begin with.
- You lay down on the couch or mat.
- The therapist will take you into a deep state of relaxation, so we can bypass those pesky mental defenses and create safety nets to use if needed.
- You identify the most recent time you felt a certain emotion and off you go!
- Once the emotion builds up, the therapist will have you release the negative emotion by either yelling into the pillow and/or hitting the bag with the hose until it is gone.
- If possible, you will regress, identify the negative conclusions you made about yourself, replace them with new ones, heal your inner child, return and voila! Relief.
This is, of course, an oversimplified version of a hypnotherapy session but you get the gist of how the session would go.
So I'm not really telling my boss off? In a literal sense, no. However, the relief you experience from expressing the sentiment of "Go to Hell!" is quite real and just as, if not more, effective as doing it face to face. The point is to get the relief that comes with fully expressing yourself and ridding yourself of the negative emotions regarding the situation or person.
How do I find a heart centered hypnotherapist? I recommend using heart centered hypnotherapy in conjunction with psychotherapy for best results – so make sure the hypnotherapist is also an amazing psychotherapist. If you already have a psychotherapist, you can keep your current psychotherapist and go to a heart centered hypnotherapist to work on certain areas. Just make sure both therapists know what you are doing and are okay with it. Finally, I recommend (for best results) using someone who was trained by the Wellness Institute to practice Heart Centered Hypnotherapy. To find a heart centered hypnotherapist in your area, you can either Google 'Heart Centered Hypnotherapy' or go here for a comprehensive listing of all therapists.
If you have any questions, I'm happy to help. Pleasant Journeys!

I can handle May through the first half of September. It's around mid-September that the heat finally gets to me.
Right now there's "only" 90 degrees of "dry heat" outside, but it might as well be 110 -- my skin can't even tell the difference anymore. Many desert dwellers dread our summers, but for me it's our so-called Fall, which always seems to drag on F-O-R-E-V-E-RRRRRRRRR with its agonizingly long stretches of record-setting heat. How many times have you heard the cheerful weather reporter chirp "After today, we'll start to cool down!" - and then repeat that same promise for the next 10 days? I mean really, in what other part of the country does your Halloween candy melt? Anyone else ready for "Fall" Fall? |

I am sick of the heat. I start to hit the wall about the end of August. I am tired of watering every day. I am tired of seeing crispy roses. I am tired of my candles melting in the house.

I ***wish*** we had a $200 utility bill! I think all our efforts to reduce the bill - blowing in insulation, replacing single pane windows, getting new high SEER-rated AC's (split system) - were all for naught. SRP raised the rates each time and erased the hoped-for savings. It didn't help that I insisted on an AC for the shed so the dogs could stay cool. Anyhow, I am sick, sick, sick of the heat!! All this talk about "cooling down to the low 90's" just makes me hotter. As soon as the dewpoint drops a little more, on comes the evap for about a month or two and then I'm turning it all off. No furnace here; there's not enough winter to warrant turning it on. |
tf, we've been running the swamper for at least two weeks. When a/c is on I check the dew point every morning....it's been in the 40's for some time. I sometimes feel like the idiot who bangs his head against the wall because it feels so good when he quits. hahahah! By the time cooler temps come I am *so* ready. I (we) stay house-bound for the worst of it....reading mostly, napping.....I don't *have* to be out in it so can opt out. It's really hard for those that have no choice. I look at the folks who work on the asphalt....ye gads Batman. That's hard. |

"First Impressions Count…You Never Get a Second Chance to Make a First Impression."
As tired and banal as these clichés may sound to you, the reason why they are clichés is because they are true.
The decision to buy a house is not solely based upon rational factors such as price, location and accessibility to services. It is also an emotional choice. It is a search for a home, a place in which one will find comfort, security and happiness, a place one would want to settle down and live in.
Emotions are set early, so it is important that minor, even typical, nuisances such as an unmowed lawn or a pile of boots by the door are looked after. As unfair as it might be to your home, after only fifteen seconds most buyers have already developed a perception of your property that will colour their feelings for the rest of the showing and perhaps dramatically affect their perceived value of the property.
Here is a list of suggestions for creating a favorable first impression:
"Love at first sight…" "Cleanliness is a virtue"
• Plant flowers, weed and edge gardens
• Mow lawn and trim hedges and shrubs
• Clean driveway and sidewalks of dirt, leaves or snow
• Water the lawn extensively, well in advance of selling
• Remove old lawn ornaments, toys and play sets
• Clean and repair rain gutters and siding
• Touch up exterior paint
• Clean out garage
• Pick up any litter
• Make mirrors glitter and appliance sparkle
• Wash and polish all floors
• Clean and freshen bathrooms
• Clean/ shampoo all carpets
• Clean all windows, walls, doors and trim
"This place looks neat and tidy" "It certainly is well maintained"
• Clear all countertops
• De-clutter all heavy traffic areas
• Store surplus furniture to reduce feeling crowded
• Put seasonal clothing into storage
• Clear halls and stairs of clutter
• Make all closets neat & tidy (and only half-full, even if this means moving items into storage)
• Touch up interior paint and paper
• Repair cracked plaster
• Tighten any door knobs and cupboard latches
• Oil any squeaky doors
• Repair leaky plumbing (taps, shower heads and toilets)
• Repair seals/ caulking around bathtub and sinks
• Replace burnt-out light bulbs/install brighter bulbs
• Clean furnace and humidifier
• Repair any other minor flaws
The "PRESENTATION"
• Turn on all lights
• Open all drapes in daytime
• Play quiet background music
• Turn on air-conditioning or light fireplace
• Keep pets outside during showings (or, better yet, at a friend's)
• Have as few people in the house as possible. If you can, be absent during showings as potential buyers often feel awkward and rush through if they think they are inconveniencing the owner.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Genie, a Kingwood Boxer/Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Boxer/Bull Terrier for sale in Kingwood, or seeking a Boxer/Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Kingwood.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Kingwood 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 Kingwood 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 Boxer/Bull Terrier breeders who help with Boxer/Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Kingwood paves the way for another one to be saved.

The words are true folks. Listen to what they say. I'm so sick of going into a random dungeon group, saying hi, and the group just remains silent. Is it that hard to hit /p hi? Or are you just that pro that you don't even need words to describe how pro you are?

Oct 8th 2010 11:54AM I really could not be more excited about this. I tank, and I'm sick and tired of everything mentioned in here(people pulling who aren't the tank, anyone who just says "go", etc). I started tanking in BC, and I didn't mind marking pulls and using CC at all. Spamming AOE is boring. I can't wait to see all the folks who started doing WotLK QQ when the content is marginally challenging again.
Ghostcrawler explains hit scaling in Cataclysm {WoW}
Sep 22nd 2010 8:46AM I want to thank Ghostcrawler for mentioning ilevel and people focusing on it. It pains me to see someone choosing a piece of gear over another just because the ilevel is higher. A higher ilevel on a piece of gear in no way means that piece of gear is better for you. We used to learn and look at individual stats and go with gear that had the stats we needed. I think ilevel gives people this false sense of knowing how to gear up their toon.

Final Thoughts
The Samsung MCBQE32G5MPP-0VA00 isn't as fast as the MemoRight GT drives we looked at last month, but with a cost saving of roughly 300 Dollars per drive, we can easily forget about the 20 or so MB/second. After a quick scan of DVNation.com's current inventory, I found that the Samsung SATA-II is one of the lowest priced 32GB 2.5 inch drives they sell.
Don't let the price fool you, the Samsung SATA-II SSD is a real performer and the construction quality is top notch. I have yet to find a Seagate Cheetah or Western Digital Raptor that comes close to the build quality (or for that matter, the performance) of these little Solid-State Drives.
Mixing the RAID aspect into the equation and we have a pro users dream. Picture, Audio and Video software users are going to find the new Samsung SATA-II SSDs just what software needs to come alive, maximizing usability and productivity.
As you can imagine, we are still not quite there for average users or budget enthusiasts, but the Samsung MCBQE32G5MPP-0VA00 is one-step closer. I predict that in a year it will be like picking a Raptor over a 1TB drive now, but with more performance going towards the Solid-State Drives.
I want to thank Jason at DVNation.com for supplying us with four of these Samsung SATA-II drives and the Areca ARC-1231ML SATA/SAS PCI-E RAID controller. DVNation.com specializes in Solid-State Drives and even offers desktops and notebooks pre-configured for their use.

Syfy's Face Off had a host of talented entertainers appear on the reality competition show to give contestants their two cents on their makeup work – including The Walking Dead producer Gail Anne Hurd, visual effects artist Tom Savini and Lord of the Rings actor Sean Astin. Now another industry great is a regular presence on the show, veteran makeup artist Michael Westmore.
Westmore was a guest judge on Face Off in past seasons, but this year he is the contestants' mentor, giving them pointers on their in-progress makeups every episode.
Part of a family of celebrated Hollywood makeup artists, Westmore's credits include Blade Runner, Raging Bull, and multiple Star Trek films and TV shows, starting with the series that gave new life to the franchise, Star Trek: The Next Generation.
For Westmore, one appeal of being a mentor on Face Off is working with his actress daughter, McKenzie, who hosts the show.

Hello everyone, I have some Dekopon seedlings that I planted from a single Dekopon seed I found in a fruit. I planted the seed several weeks ago and last week, I partially dug up the seed to see if it sprouted or if it had rotted. When I partially dug up the seed,I saw about 6-8 sprouts coming out of the seed. I took my finest pair of tweezers to see if I could gently seperate the seedlings but they were pretty much stuck together.
Should I try again to seperate the seedlings? I was thinking that I could let the seedlings grow a little stronger so that the roots wont be as brittle and maybe they will even be a little more seperated. When I tried to seperate them the fist time, I could see the cracks between some of the clones but they felt like they were still partially fused together. Should I just leave the seedlings alone and grow them all as a single bush? Also, is there a way I can tell which seedling is zygotic? I assume its got to be the strongest or weakest one. Do zygotic seedlings sprout first or last? Thanks in advance!
Follow-Up Postings:
Well personally if I were you. I would let what ever sprouts grow no matter what since the seeds are very rare. Let them grow until you have some size to work with. Im just a dummy though. |

i concur with mike. too risky right now to try to separate. |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Sat, Apr 21, 12 at 9:52
No, no. Do not separate, now. Allow the seedlings to sprout. Your zygotic seedlings usually come up later than the nuclear seedling or seedlings, and the clonal seedlings often overtake the zygotic seedling, which will die off. The seedlings that are the most vigorous and sprout first most likely will be your clones. You can separate after they've gotten a little bigger and try growing them all. Just label them accordingly, so as they get bigger, you know which is the hybrid and which is the clone. Patty S. |
- Posted by simon_grow San Diego Zone 10 (My Page) on Mon, Apr 23, 12 at 0:58
Thanks for everyones help! I will let them grow now and try to separate them when they are a little more mature. If they are too difficult to separate them when they are older, I will just grow all of them to a large size and attempt to bud each grown seedling onto another tree. I have sprouts so far so I guess at least one of them is a clone, I hope? Simon |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Mon, Apr 23, 12 at 10:46
I would think so, Simon. Polyembryonic citrus tend to send out clone spouts the majority of the time. Odds are in your favor :-) |
- Posted by simon_grow San Diego Zone 10 (My Page) on Tue, Apr 24, 12 at 17:39
Hey Patty, do you have any experience in budding citrus? When my seedlings get larger, perhaps you can take some buds from my seedlings and bud them onto some of your citrus trees. I would like to distribute some of the scions from these seedlings(when they reach the appropriate size) in case I accidentally kill them. You live in San Diego County so we shouldn't have any issues with the citrus quarantine. Simon |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Wed, Apr 25, 12 at 0:31
No experience grafting citrus, just stone fruit, Simon. But, you have some really experienced grafters within our San Diego and N. San Diego County CRFG's. Are you a member? Really a wonderful group of folks. Love my N. San Diego chapter a bunch. I'd love to try, but I'd feel terrible if I wasn't successful with such a special seedling! Patty S. |

Hey Patty, I'm not an actual memeber I just know some of the members. I've done grafting of several varieties of tropical and subtropicals but I have not grafted citrus yet. I'm going to experiment with some of my citrus next month and hopefully I can get T-budding down in time to bud these Dekopon seedlings. Patty, how is your Smith Red Valencia doing? The one I ordered from Four Winds was really small so I found a larger one in a 5 gallon container. I planted it in the ground about two weeks ago and it is flowering and holding some tiny fruit so far. |
- Posted by hoosierquilt z10a/23 Vista Calif (My Page) on Wed, Apr 25, 12 at 23:21
Very small, still, Simon. But, I do see some flush, so hopefully I can get a bit of size. So, where did you find one in a 5-gal container?? Patty S. |
- Posted by simon_grow San Diego Zone 10 (My Page) on Thu, Apr 26, 12 at 14:51
Hey Patty, I got it at Clifton's Nursery. It is much larger than the one I got at FourWinds and will probably save you about two years. http://www.buyplantsonline.com/smith-red-blood-orange-tree-dwarf.html Simon |
I too have be so fortunate as to have a store bought Sumo with a lucky viable seed grow into 3 taller shoots! and 1 runtish small one. Each shoot is about an inch high off the soil ea w/2 small leaves. Is it time to separate the 3 viable shoots? From what I read, these will become fruit bearing Sumo trees in 7+ years, with much luck and tlc. Thanks! Hedley |

Wait a bit yet, morbo. You will want to see at least 1 to 2 sets of real leaves before you separate out your seedlings. Your largest and most vigorous seedling will be the clone. But, since Dekopons are grown in large blocks, so all your seedlings may indeed, end up being Dekopons and not a hybrid (or, Dekopon x Dekopon hybrids). They are easier to separate when they're a little larger. Patty S. |
Thanks Patty! I will wait. Should I wait for the runt one to get to real leaf stage before separating all 4 or start separating when the fast growers get to real leaf stage? So exciting all this :) (excitement played out over a decade to come of course) Hedley |

Wait until the leaves harden up a bit. Seedlings at this stage are delicate. Josh |
Hi Sumo Growers !!! :) Any chance one of you folks could pass me a seed ? I am in europe and see no chance to get a Sumo/Dekopon ... |
Morbo, Looking good. I've gone through several Dekopon/Sumo/Shiranui fruit over the last two years and have yet to find a single seed. Although I did (to my surprise) see a good 3-4ft 5gal one for sale at a local garden center here in MA this spring. I just saw a really nice Ortanique at the same garden center this past weekend too, go figure... Sanguinello? err... Australis ;) How are you doing? I recognized your writing style from one of your other recent posts. Since Dekopon's have so few seeds and the trees still are not openly available in California, you would be quite fortunate to find someone willing to send a seed to you. You'll also probably have to wait at least until February, when they are in season again. |
Morbo: how are those seedlings doing? Will you keep them indoors or are they hardy enough to be planted outside? I have 4 seedlings which are doing great....I am just not sure if I can plant them in the ground here in Sunset Zone 15 (9b)? |
Hi mia1974, All 4 are doing well. Some slight leaf curling at higher elevations (prob not enough water). Its been 8mo now approx since they sprouted from a rare Whole food Sumo orange seed. They are 20", 15" & 12" from r->l I may pot into larger pots and put them out on the deck. I think I too am in a sunset zone15 (Cupertino,CA). After they outgrow that deck pot, it would be to the garden for the 3. The small one (per Patty) will not produce fruit so I am disinclined to garden that one. Hedley |

Well, it's not that it won't produce fruit, Hedley, just that the smaller and later of the multiple seedlings coming from the same seed are almost always your hybrids, and not your clones. So, you may have a very nice mandarin hybrid that is not a Dekopon clone :-) Patty S. |
Hedley: do your seedlings have thorns? Is this a normal? My 4 seedlings are about the same size...I am in S. San Jose. My other mandarin citrus survived ok, so maybe i will attempt 2 seedlings outside soon.... |
Hi mia1974, Yes, thorns. 3 of them do. The one that Patty mentions, the hybrid, doesn't seem to have them. So, it seems for me the clones have thorns, the hybrid, no. Good to know your outdoor citrus survived the winter. This zone doesn't seem to get too cold for too long. Could use a lot more wet weather though. Hedley |

I've heard raves about this fruit. Does anyone think it needs any special environment to attain its legendary taste? For example, I just bought some 'Minneola' tangelos from Peru and they don't have the same flavor as a Florida Minneola. It was great, but just not quite as complex, with fewer grapefruit overtones, if that makes sense. More like a regular, very sweet mandarin. And I've heard the Ugli fruit needs just the right climate as well. |
Dave, Since the Dekopans we taste are from the southern interior valley of CA I would think to achieve the flavor you are expecting you would try and mirror that climate. A warm dry long summer and a cool short winter with warm days and cold nights, Humidity is low. As out of zone as we are it might be a challenge to create this climate without a greenhouse. As far as the large size - Ive found with them this year, like most citrus, if you want large fruit you have to find the right balance of tree seize and fruit number. Of the 4 I have, the one with the largest fruit has the least number. However, even the 2 I didn't thin have large fruit, just not as large. Right now they are about the difference between a baseball and softball. Dave, If you don't have a tree you are missing out, they are a citrus grower/enthusiast's dream in almost every way! Available at Harris Citrus in FL. |

I have a sumo tree just wondering how his seedling where doing. They say after u pick them to let them set 15 to 40 days for the acid to go down. So the sugar goes up that's what it was saying on web site. I don't know about that when they rippen on my tree I will try one and see. Trace |
Tcamp, probably around March or later they would be ripening. Ive herd about the leaving the fruit out. Be careful when doing this for that long because it might rot unless dipped in a fungicide and stored correctly. Ill just pick mine when they are ready, |

RyanLo, I may have to try one! I have 'Early Armstrong' in a pot and I do enjoy that the fruits ripen in late Fall / early winter. I don't have a greenhouse, so I wonder if late-bearing fruit could hang on most of the winter in my garage and still ripen properly. |

Which is a better Solo / Jungle in general? I am interested in these two champions. What are the Pros and Cons on these champion? Thank You
Gene Imori
Im sure I will get downvoted because everyone disagree with me on this, but Nocturne is better solotop and jungle IMO. Mainly people disagree with the Solo Top part, but he can really dominate there
I know that Nocturne can jungle really well.
Nocturne's the better jungler, Riven is the better solo top.
Riven better solo top, Noc better jungle. They don't really play the same so pick who you find more fun.
Nocturne's abilities in top-lane are counterproductive because of Umbra Blades. Due to how it works, he will always be forcibly pushing, even if he just tries to last-hit. That means you'll be vulnerable to ganks. That, and Nocturne's sustain relies on him hitting multiple targets, so if you get harassed, you need to hit a lot of minions to heal yourself, meaning more pushing. Additionally, Nocturne is limited by low mana when it comes to fighting his lane opponent. Riven is not limited by any resource, making her able to last much longer. Lastly, if you're not jungling as Nocturne, you're kinda wasting his talents.
You shouldn't top lane Noc, it's asking for trouble. In the jungle he's pretty good, but the fact that his ult has such a long cooldown really gimps him. He also has no immediate CC, something that Riven has access to.
Le Fiora Bot
there is no other way BUT they excel at diferent roles noc as jangler and riven solo top

Patients actively engaged in their health are more likely to adhere to physical therapy after spine surgery
Research Activities, June 2009, No. 346
After patients undergo surgery for degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine, the North American Spine Society recommends that they have physical therapy to strengthen weakened back muscles. Richard L. Skolasky, Sc.D., and colleagues at Johns Hopkins University found that the level of patient activation (defined as an individual's propensity to engage in positive health behavior) is associated with better attendance and engagement in physical therapy.
The study enrolled 65 patients who presented for surgery of their degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis. All underwent a baseline assessment prior to surgery. Patient activation was measured using the Patient Activation Measure (PAM). Every week for 6 weeks, patients were asked about how many physical therapy sessions were prescribed and how many they actually attended. At 6 weeks, physical therapists were asked to rate the patients' engagement in physical therapy using a standard rating scale.
According to the researchers, there were no significant differences in patient activation scores with respect to age, gender, marital status, comorbid conditions, or education. The researchers found that as patient activation increased, the severity of depressive symptoms decreased. Self-efficacy and hopefulness grew with increasing patient activation. Patients who demonstrated high activation attended more of their therapy sessions compared with patients with low activation and there was a strong positive association between patient activation and engagement. Physical therapists rated these individuals as highly engaged in their therapy.
The researchers believe this work points to the importance of looking at psychological factors and patient competencies when trying to understand health behaviors, and indicate that the PAM can be used as a valuable tool in clinical practice. Additional research needs to focus on the value of preoperative interventions aimed at increasing patient activation and subsequent recovery. The study was supported by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HS16106).
See "Patient activation and adherence to physical therapy in persons undergoing spine surgery," by Dr. Skolasky, Ellen J. Mackenzie, Ph.D., Stephen T. Wegener, Ph.D., and Lee H. Riley III, M.D., in the October 2008 Spine 33(21), pp. E784-E791.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation said in a statement today that its "EFF DES Cracker," built for under US$250,000, had cracked an encoded message in fewer than three days. The old record, established using a huge network of computers, was 39 days.
"The EFF started this project more than a year ago with the intent to explode a myth that has been getting in the way of developing good crypto policies," said John Gilmore, the organization's co-founder and leader of the encryption project, at a press conference today. "EFF has proved what has been argued by scientists for 20 years, that DES can be cracked quickly and inexpensively. Now that the public knows, it will not be fooled into buying products that promise real privacy but only deliver DES. This will prevent manufacturers from buckling under to government pressure to 'dumb down' their products, since such products will no longer sell."
Gilmore said that the machine uses 1,500 chips, each with 24 identical search engines that try 2.5 million keys per second. That ends up being 30,000 search units, which can test 90 billion keys per second. The entire DES key space would take about nine days to search, said Gilmore, though it only took three days in this case.
"EFF's machine is not cutting-edge engineering," said Bruce Schneier, president of Counterpane Systems, in an email.
"It is not state-of-the-art cryptography. It is not bleeding-edge technology. The machine uses old, boring chip technologies, simple hardware design, not-very-interesting software, and no cryptography. This is not a marvel of engineering. The only interesting thing is how straightforward the design really is."
Schneier said the EFF machine is significant in that it does what the government has denied is possible.
At a gathering of cryptography experts last month, Robert Litt, principal associate deputy attorney general at the Department of Justice, denied that it was possible even for the FBI to crack DES.
"[It is a myth that] we have supercomputers that can crack anything that is out there," Litt said.
The government established the 56-bit DES as a standard in 1977. It has claimed that the vast difficulty and expense in cracking DES makes it sufficiently safe, and that stronger encryption was not only unnecessary but dangerous, since it could be used by terrorists and other criminals. Thus, it has not allowed the export of 128-bit encryption without "key recovery," a means by which a third party -- meaning, law enforcement -- can recover the information.
The federal policy has long outraged privacy advocates and the US computer industry, which is eager to sell its wares overseas. Both parties also argue that export controls have put the brakes on domestic encryption development.
Paul Kocher, principal designer of project, said that if the DES Cracker machine were searching a 40-bit key -- currently the limit for exported crypto products -- it would only take between three and 12 seconds to crack a cypher, "which highlights the absurdity of using 40-bit keys."
The San Francisco-based EFF said it used the DES Cracker in an RSA Data Security contest that began Monday at 9 am PST, and by late Wednesday afternoon had cracked a message that read, "It's time for those 128-, 192-, and 256-bit keys." RSA Data Security had put up $10,000 for the first team to crack the message.
"The EFF is a civil liberties group, and this was just a demonstration project," said Schneier. "There are undoubtedly many technical improvements that can be made to the EFF design to make brute-force search cheaper and faster. But the fact that a civil liberties group can use old technology to build something that the adminstration has denied can be built ... that's the real news."
Whitfield Diffie, the co-inventor of public key encryption, started a discussion 20 years ago on how much a machine like the DES Cracker would cost to build. He originally estimated a $650 million price tag, but within a few years had reduced the amount to $20 million.
"Once it's clear these machines can be built, it is clear that people have been doing this already," Diffie said. "I think there will be lots of legitimate reasons for attacking DES, and am confident that intelligence agencies have these machines now." Diffie added that as the price of DES Cracker machines begins to drop -- "the price will come down to tens or hundreds of dollars" -- a business will develop around harvesting information from DES-encrypted messages in email archives.
EFF said the full results of its DES crack are documented in a book published this week by the group and O'Reilly and Associates, entitled Cracking DES: Secrets of Encryption Research, Wiretap Politics, and Chip Design.
