Quiz: Remember the definition of mal de mer?
1813, "large piece cut off," possibly from West Flemish hunke (used of bread and meat), which is perhaps related to Dutch homp "lump, hump." Meaning "attractive, sexually appealing man" is first attested 1945 in jive talk (in Australian slang, it is recorded from 1941).

Manufactured Home Interesting additions
I thought it might be nice for those who have done some interesting things to your home to share. I wish I could find this site again but I've searched and searched but cant find it again. It was a man who bought a second mobile home and attached it to his original mobile home. If I remember correctly he dit a T shap. The inside turned out very nice the only thing I didn't care for was he had it up on super high stilts. You could literally walk underneath it and still have head room. Made it look weird from the outside. The inside job however was spectacular. He even had an inwall fishtank. He had to struggle a little to get approval to combine the two, but he did it. This was a few years ago so his site may not even be up anymore but I'll keep scouring the net to try and find it.
So those of you who own a manufactured home what have you done to it? Added decking, a porch, garage, granite counter tops, upgraded fixtures added on another room etc. Pics are always of the good!
I haven't done any major projects yet, but I am interested in putting in some window sills and perhaps some window frames. Does anyone have pictures or plans?
I didn't do any expanding additions, but what I did do was reface my L shaped bathroom vanity. It is an older MH and that proverbial 'boomerang print' formica was on it in a YUGLY gold. So I cut, laid & grouted 1588 pieces of stained glass-in mosaic pieces of hunter green, teal, turquoise & mauve. Turned out great!!
My husband and I have been redoing the entire inside of our DW - mostly paint and new trim. It is only 6 years old but from the day I bought it new I had plans to put my 'stamp' on it. Here is a picture of our window sills and window trim plus a link to another thread where I had posted before and after pictures......

WHAT!!! And no pictures?? Oh Please post a picture!! I am considering doing mosaic on the mirror frame in the guest bath.
Anna8nc WE have just plain wood window sills that came with the home. Since we do have six inch walls the sills hang out another inch and a half past the edge of the wall. Makes a nice landing for plants.
lynnencfan Your Green and white bath is just beautiful!!!
Anna - I am going for the farmhouse/cottage look in my place so the moldings are just 1x3's cut to size as is the molding around the ceiling. We had that generic fake oak thin molding before. I didn't have any windowsills before and they are 1x6's with brackets underneath. I have several years of Country Decorating magazine and showed my husband pictures of what I liked and he did all the rest. Of course it helped that he had 17 years of construction work on the Outerbanks of North Carolina to draw from so knew how to do the cottage look. Here are more pictures of the remolding that we have done so far. The pictures in the slideshow work backwards from after to before but you will get the idea
Here is a link that might be useful: more remolding pictures
Thank you all for the complimants - it has been fun putting our own personal touches on the place.
Black-thumb - the beadboard was in the family room but was oak - so I just painted it white. My husband built the shelving unit. We were getting a new 32" TV and I didn't want another large entertainment center. The TV is in the corner where the little one was in the picture. We did put up the beadboard in the dining area and filled in the openings between the rooms up at the ceiling and did all the ceiling beams where those ceiling strips are....

Shannon Miller added gold in the balance beam and Dominique Dawes got bronze in the floor exercise. 1|12 John Biever/SI 2004 Softball Led by veterans like Lisa Fernandez (pictured) and first-time Olympians like Jennie Finch, the U.S. outscored its opponents 51-1 throughout the tournament, not giving up a run until the championship against Australia. 2|12 Steve Powell/Getty Images 1984 Men's Gymnastics With the Soviet Union sitting out the Los Angeles Games, Bart Conner (pictured) and the rest of the U.S. team shocked the gymnastics world with its surprise win over the Chinese. The team added seven individual medals, including gold in both the parallel bars and pommel horse. 3|12 Theo Westenberger/SI 1992 Dream Team Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan and Larry Bird joined a host of other NBA stars on an Olympic team for the first time in 1992. In perhaps the most dominant Olympic performance in any sport, the Dream Team won by an average of 44 points as the world got its first glimpse of the NBA's star players. 4|12 Manny Millan/SI 1996 Men's Basketball Five members of the original Dream Team returned four years later with the addition of Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaquille O'Neal and others as Lenny Wilkens coached the team to another gold, and a 32-point average margin of victory. 5|12 AFP/Getty Images 1972 Men's Basketball With Henry Iba coaching in his third Olympics, the U.S. marched to the gold medal game, improving its Olympic winning streak to 63 games. The U.S. finally met a challenge in the Soviet Union, however, and lost its first international game when an infamous and controversial decision gave the Soviets three attempts to inbound the ball with three seconds remaining; they scored the winning basket on the final attempt. 6|12 John W. McDonough/SI 2004 Women's Basketball Behind Lisa Leslie's 15.6 points per game, the U.S. won all eight of its games, earning its fifth-straight gold medal with a 74-63 win over Australia. 7|12 AP 1976 Boxing Team Sugar Ray Leonard and Michael and Leon Spinks led a team that picked up seven medals, including five gold in 1976. Four members on the team would go on to hold professional boxing world titles. 8|12 Al Tielemans/SI 2008 Men's Volleyball After the men's volleyball coach's father-in-law was stabbed and killed, the team made a miraculous gold medal run at the Beijing Games. They tallied an unblemished record of 5-0 and only dropped four sets out of a possible 25 on their way to an emotional gold medal victory. 9|12 Getty Images 1984 Boxing American Olympic boxing had another outstanding team during the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. Competition took place across 12 weight classes and the United States medaled in all but one, earning nine gold, one silver, and one bronze. 10|12 Heinz Kluetmeier/SI 1976 Men's Swimming The 1976 men's swimming team put on an unbelievable show for the spectators across the border in Montreal, Canada. Competing in 13 men's swimming events, the U.S took home 12 gold medals, 10 silvers, and 5 bronze. They swept the 200-meter freestyle, 200 backstroke, 100 butterfly and the 200 butterfly. 11|12 Neil Leifer/SI 1968 Men's Track and Field In the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, the men's track and field team dominated the competition. They took gold in the sprint events, swept the 400 meters and won five out of eight field events. Overall they took home 10 individual gold medals, two relay team gold medals, five silver and seven bronze. 12|12 Next up NBA Players selected in the June NBA draft are getting their first taste of professional basketball at the summer leagues in Orlando and Las Vegas.

The technical failure was widely mocked outside of Russia as one of the many so-called #SochiProblems, but otherwise the Opening Ceremony constituted a visually impressive tribute to the Russian people and their history. 13 Olympics Disappointments 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More Olympics The robotic camera is a solution that allows SI to put a camera in places it traditionally would have no access to. That was the case in Sochi, where SI used two robotic units. One was in Adler Arena for Speed Skating, mounted on the lighting truss hanging from the ceiling above the track. Since there was no catwalk over the track, that was the only way to get these unique perspectives. The second was in Fisht Stadium for both Opening and Closing Ceremonies, again hanging from a lighting truss above the audience. The robotic camera rig allows us to pan, tilt, zoom, focus, trigger, and transmit images.This is all controlled from our office in the MPC via Vlan. Also, our robotic has a third axes in addition to pan and tilt, which is the ability to roll. This gives us an added advantage when composing images.

Brigs & Stra 14.5 hp, got gas in oil.
Mower had been running great. Month later started, lots of smoke, then blew oil out breather. Removed filter, full of oil, checked oil level, way overfull. Drained gas/oil from crankcase. Suppose float stuck or float needle valve stuck. Drained gas tank.
Question: What is the purpose of the solenoid on the bottom of the carburetor bowl?
I couldn't tell you exactly what the solenoid does but I think it is there to prevent backfires. As you have seen it does nothing to help keep fuel from leaking past your carbs inlet needle and into the intake manifold.
What you do need is a manual fuel shut off valve, like this:
10 minutes to install. Put it between your gas tank and fuel filter. It will stop the leak while the mower is not being used.
The optimum fix is to fix the carb inlet needle or float, but you may not need to and one should install one of these valves anyways, so I would try it first.
Excellent advice.
My neighbor had the same problem on his Toro tractor.
He had to keep changing the oil and it became quite costly.
Now after he uses it it he just shuts the fuel line closed and no more gas in the oil. The carb had been rebuilt once before but the issue appeared again. The fuel shut off cured the issue permanently.
Question: What is the purpose of the solenoid on the bottom of the carburetor bowl?
electric operated fuel shut-off to the main jet to prevent backfire or loud pop after immediately shutting down hot engine.
You can audible hear the fuel shut-off valve when you turn the key on you will hear click at the carb. bowl. No click the solenoid maybe stuck or defective. Can be cleaned and tested by applying 12V to the single wire and grounding the other to the case of the solenoid. Should see it pop open and closed (up and down) when removed.
Fuel getting into the oil is from the float needle not seating and leaking fuel, beings the carb. is above the crankcase gravity takes it's course and fills up the crankcase as described above.
Thank you people!
I had already thought about putting in a block valve. Strange it has never happen in 14 years we had it. And this summer it once set for 4 months! My ATV came with a gas shut off that I always use. We don't live there, only go there maybe once a month or so.
I priced the carb kit online... wow it's high! I'd rather not spend that much so will go with a block valve. Mower is at our farm and we have the farm for sale so only need it to last till it sells.

Walkom: What did rock-star banker Mark Carney do for Canada?
What exactly did Carney do during his tenure at the helm of Canada's central bank? And how much credit does he deserve for the relative stability of this country's financial system?
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Mark Carney remains the man of the hour. In Britain, the Canadian who will soon head the Bank of England is lauded as a rock star of international finance.
In Ottawa, where he served for five years as Bank of Canada governor, he is routinely praised as the man who prevented the country from falling into the abyss.
At one point, he was a rumoured Liberal leadership candidate. In spite of his denials this week to a British parliamentary committee, there are still rumblings that he will eventually enter the Canadian political arena.
But what exactly did Carney do during his tenure at the helm of Canada's central bank? And how much credit does he deserve for the relative stability of this country's financial system?
The answers to these questions are complicated. As Canadian autoworkers economist Jim Stanford pointed out last fall in a trenchant analysis for the Financial Times of London, Carney exercises little direct statutory authority over the country's banks.
The fact that Canadian banks maintain robust financial cushions to protect against bad loans stems from a long history of federal government regulation, not from the diktats of any particular central bank governor.
Indeed, it could be argued that the real hero behind Canada's sound banking system is Julie Dickson, the federal superintendent of financial institutions, whose job is to monitor and regulate the commercial banks.
Nor was it Carney who prevented Canadian banks from loading up their balance sheets with dodgy mortgage-backed securities prior to the 2008 meltdown. Stanford notes (correctly, in my view) that the uncompetitive nature of the Canadian banking system discouraged it from participating in this madness.
To put it another way, Canada's clubby bankers were making enough money without taking on the extra risks posed by opaque investment instruments — instruments that ultimately torpedoed financial institutions elsewhere.
This is not to say Carney's role was minor. He dramatically reduced the Bank of Canada's benchmark interest rate and he printed more money. He also made clear his long-term intentions in these areas.
All were wise choices that alleviated the recession.
But even here, he had little room to manoeuvre. When U.S. Federal Reserve chief Ben Bernanke lowered his benchmark interest rate to near zero, Carney had little choice but to follow along.
Keeping Canadian rates significantly above those in the U.S. would have encouraged investors to park speculative money in the Canadian dollar. That in turn would have sent the loonie even higher than it is now — with disastrous consequences for Canadian exporters and jobs.
But Carney's most important contribution may have had to do with whatever informal advice he gave Finance Minister Jim Flaherty.
Finance ministers and Bank of Canada governors tend to talk. We don't know what Flaherty and Carney discussed in their chats. We do know that they appear to respect one another and that, after an initial stumble in late 2008, Flaherty made some shrewd decisions.
The finance minister moved quickly to have the government's Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. buy sound mortgages from commercial banks in order to give them more leeway for business lending.
Later, he tightened mortgage rules to head off a threatened housing bubble.
Most important, and unlike his Conservative cousins in Britain, Flaherty did not pursue a strategy of scorched-earth fiscal austerity.
All of these were matters technically outside of Carney's remit. But if he played any role in convincing the hard-line Conservative government to act sensibly, he more than earned his salary which, according to the Bank of Canada, is in the $431,800 to $507,900 range — or about a third of what he'll get in England.
Thomas Walkom's column appears Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.

President Barack Obama came to office famously promising to change how Washington works. He has since acknowledged that he has failed to make that happen. But when it comes to the workings of the executive branch, the president has started down a path to success.
In July, at a White House event attended by most of his Cabinet, Obama announced an aggressive management agenda for his second term that delivers a smarter, more innovative and more accountable government. Insiders say a new deputy director for management will soon be nominated and will team with Office of Management and Budget Director Sylvia Burwell to drive this agenda.
What needs to be done to make the agenda a success? In a February column, I offered five suggestions from FCW readers to reshape the government and public services. They are worth revisiting — for the sake of the new OMB team and for everyone else who cares about better government.
1. Create a different culture by taking advantage of the need for new hires.
The next few years will bring a sharp increase in retirements, which will offer a unique opportunity for government to recruit for new skills and outlooks. Beyond its traditional orientation programs, the government must also provide behavior training and a cultural orientation. For example, two-week sessions could explore what it means to be a "resilient and flexible employee" and discuss the skills needed to collaborate and be more responsive and agile.
2. Give all employees new collaborative technologies.
We know that millennials will make up the majority of new agency hires and that these young people have grown up using computers and collaborative technologies. The challenge will be learning how to leverage those tools to make agencies more connected and less hierarchical.
Information is now available to all — government employees and the general public alike. That access will change the way agencies operate, and new security and privacy issues will have to be addressed with re-engineered processes.
3. Develop new relationships between the government and its contract workforce.
A major challenge will be to forge a true partnership between agencies and industry. To do so, federal leaders will have to transform a relationship that currently is far more adversarial than collegial. The number of federal employees might change in the coming years, but the "blended workforce" will almost certainly remain.
A proactive approach is needed to help government employees and contractors better understand their respective roles and find ways to work together effectively. We need to build and train our contract officers and program managers, and discuss anew what constitutes "inherently governmental."
4. Enhance collaboration between the federal government and state and local governments.
People interact more often with their local and state governments than they do with the federal government, which argues for a local-state-federal approach rather than the other way around. The Obama administration must develop new ways to improve intergovernmental collaboration.
Most successful initiatives in the past decade have occurred because of the efforts of a dedicated team or a unique leader. The administration should learn from those efforts and ensure that such working relationships become the norm rather than the exception.
5. Become more citizen-centric.
Citizens want government to work effectively, seamlessly and openly. They do not care what happens in the back office; what matters is how quickly their applications are processed, their claims adjudicated and their questions answered. A transformed government should focus on seamless and transparent interactions. And it must concentrate at least as much on responsible execution and operational excellence as on the initiation of new policies or programs.

The Catholic Church was just fined by a civil jury for insisting that an employee at a Catholic School abide by the moral teaching of the Catholic Church. In the wake of the growing hostility toward the Church and the increasing violations against the Free Exercise of Religion in the United States, this verdict is a metaphorical warning shot across the bow.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
6/5/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in U.S.
Keywords: Church/State, establishment clause, free exercise clause, Christa Dias, Archdiocese of Cincinnati, Religious freedom, Keith Fournier
CINCINNATI, OH (Catholic Online) - As a constitutional lawyer deeply concerned over the rights of the Church I have watched the Federal trial in Cincinnati with great concern. The problem with the case is that very few news sources have fairly reported on what is really at stake.
The photos associated with the news reports show a mom with her child at a Christmas tree. The effort is to paint the Catholic Archdiocese at best as a Grinch. When one reads most media reports, the picture presented is even worse. The Catholic Church is presented as a hypocritical ogre who wants to put a mother and child out on the street.
Christa Dias is an openly practicing lesbian. She underwent artificial insemination in order to have a child outside of marriage. She signed a contract with the Archdiocese and clearly agreed to abide by the moral teaching of the Catholic Church as an employee of a Catholic School.
She did not do so. Openly practicing her lesbian lifestyle and undergoing artificial insemination are a clear breach of that contract. They are also unquestionably at odds with the moral teaching of the Catholic Church.
Ms. Dias sued the Archdiocese when she was dismissed from her employment. She alleged it was not because of her open violation of her contract and opposition to the moral teaching of the Catholic Church.
Rather, her clever lawyers filed the case in Federal Court. They argued she was fired because she was pregnant and that her dismissal was a violation of Federal Law prohibiting discrimination against pregnant women.
Her lawyers also argued that the Archdiocese discriminated against her as a woman because married men who also participate in artificial insemination are not treated in the same way.
The archdiocese argued that she worked for a Catholic School, knew that her behavior violated the teaching of the Church and openly violated that teaching and the contract which incorporated it. In effect, they argued that she, like all who work in Catholic schools, was what the Law would call Law a ministerial employee.
Or at least they should have made that argument strongly, if they did not do so. I hope they do so on appeal.
The US Supreme Court in 2012 affirmed the longstanding body of law protecting Churches in their employment decisions in the now famous Hosanna Tabor decision. Religious groups and churches can dismiss employees who openly oppose and defy Church doctrine.
On Monday, June 3, 2013, the jury returned their verdict in favor of Christa Dias and against the Church. They ordered the Archdiocese of Cincinnati to pay her 170,000. That amount included $51,000 for back pay, $20,000 for compensatory damages and $100,000 in punitive damages.
Punitive damages, as the name implies, are intended to punish the party found liable.
In other words, the Catholic Church was just fined by a civil jury for insisting that an employee at a Catholic School abide by the moral teaching of the Church. In the wake of the growing hostility toward the Church and the increasing violations against the Free Exercise of Religion in the United States, this verdict is a metaphorical warning shot across the bow.
I am not sure what the Archdiocese is going to do. I sincerely hope they appeal this case. It has dangerous implications. It raises the question, can a Catholic, or for that matter any Christian institution, insist that its employees abide by the teaching of the Church?
On January 11, 2012 the United States Supreme Court, in Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School v. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued one of the most important Religion Clause cases of the last fifty years. It was a unanimous opinion. The majority opinion was written by Justice Roberts. Two concurring opinions were filed; one by Justice Thomas and a second by Justice Alito who was joined by Justice Kagan.
Cheryl Perich was a commissioned or called lay teacher at a Lutheran School in Michigan. In 2004 she was asked to resign after a six month leave of absence upon certain terms and with assistance. The terms were set forth in the internal employment manuals of the school.
The teacher objected and the school sought a resolution under their internal dispute resolution procedure. Ms Perich pursued another avenue - the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. She sought to file a claim in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a Federal Statute.Those facts set up one of the most significant Church/State cases in American Law. This is often how such matters unfold in the world of American Jurisprudence.
Ms Perich attempted to argue that she was in essence a lay employee since she was not ordained clergy. She further argued that she essentially taught secular subjects and thus did not fall under what has been called the ministerial exemption to certain Federal legislation.
The School claimed that she was called according to their internal doctrinal schema of their Church. Further, that all teaching at the school was a part of the mission of the Church. Finally, they maintained that the Church's internal dispute resolution system was to be followed because this was a Church institution.
The fact that the decision of the US Supreme Court was unanimous added to its weight; coupled with the issuance of three substantial opinions. The Court sets forth in its legal analysis a wide array of assistance for future lawyers engaged in defending Churches and religious institutions.
That has become absolutely essential these days as hostility toward the Church grows under our secularist regime. Such legal advocates are now regularly called upon to protect the Church from ever increasing Governmental encroachment and interference.
For example, this important opinion came just as the effort to compel Church and faith based institutions to implement the Affordable Care Act ramps up. Part of its implementation involves efforts to compel distribution of contraceptives and the provision of abortion services or face the wrath of the federal government.
The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the US Constitution was intended to protect against the establishment of a National Church and a forced adherence to its doctrine - more aptly understood as an Anti-Establishment Clause.
Sadly, it has devolved into an interpretation of a Church/State separation which is hostile to religious institutions, discriminates against people of faith and seeks to censor religious speech and expression in the public square.
The Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment was intended to protect religious institutions and people of faith in their vital role in speaking and acting in an authentically pluralistic society. It presumed that the values informed by faith were to be esteemed and welcomed because they serve the common good.
Sadly, it has been turned on its head - and is now used all too often to silence the Church.
Finally, the Free Speech clause has been subverted entirely. When the message and the messenger being examined under its light is determined by the State to be speaking a "religious" or now even a "moral" message, its protections no longer apply.
This is one of the dangers of what Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI labeled a Dictatorship of Relativism. In a culture where there is no objective truth, those who claim otherwise become perceived as a threat.
The Hosanna Tabor case was a resounding reaffirmation of the rights of Churches and religious institutions to operate freely and follow their own internal doctrine - as well as to determine their own way of resolving their own disputes. I had sincerely hoped it would protect the Church and Religious Institutions for awhile.
The Christa Dias case has ominous implications.

This flashlight is very good, much better than I thoght it would be.
As far as flashlights go Streamlight is on the higher end, however this model isone of their lower end products. That being said it is still better than most other brands of flashlights, it is really durable, very bright for a non-LED. Its very compact fits in a glove box nicely. I would highly recommend to any one who prefers higher quality products.

I'm not a hunter but I do believe you need to follow the schedule.
The schedual. Normally sun rise to sun set. Those rules are in place for a reason. Now if you have trouble seeing your target and you take that shot anyways. Turns out it's not the duck thats in season. Now you are in a ton of trouble because you bent the rules.
Remington 870 12 Ga. Supermag
Springfield XDS .45acp
Yep still gotta follow all the regulations.
You must follow all Rules & Regulations, your land or not............
When all else fails.
Your land. NOT your ducks. They are a Federal Migratory bird, and the Federal Govt sets seasons, bag limits (and that is why you need a Migratory Bird Stamp)

Breathtaking Hawaii!
gidgetsocalAugust 6, 2014
I just got back from Hawaii and saw the most amazing trees while I was there. This one is from Maui.
Thanks, lazybonz! I agree with you! The cost of living is high, but there is beauty everywhere you look.
texasplum- You would love it in Hawaii! What a wonderful sister you have to bring you cuttings! I came back with quite a few myself. I will be sharing them with my older brother. He has the bug, too!
jandey - You're right! It is even more amazing in person. I can't think of a place that I would like to visit more.
kms2 - Thanks so much! The dawn picture was taken at Makena. It felt so serene that morning. You might be able to see Molokini in the background. I spent that morning swimming at Turtle Town.
Have a wonderful evening!

Gizella Donald, ERYT, Studio Director & Founder, yoga mayu of San Francisco
Gizella began her studies and practice in 1990 at the Sivananda Yoga Center in San Francisco. Since then she has practiced in different classical Yoga traditions as well as the more physical Ashtanga and Iyengar styles. Gizella integrated this wealth of experience into a process towards true and lasting transformation. In her classes, she emphasizes correct alignment of the body in yoga postures to minimize the potential for injuries and to maximize optimal energy flow. She teaches an energetic, challenging yet playful class, and excels in modifying poses so that they can be accessible to all levels of students. She inspires her students to extend the practice of yoga by encouraging them to bring the love of yoga into their everyday life.
Lila Butler, RYT-200/Studio Manager
Lila will never forget the first time she stepped onto the mat and how balanced, calm and rejuvenated she felt - in fact she left class feeling like a superhero. Coming from a background in dance, she has spent most of her life studying the body in motion and approaches yoga with a sense of humor and a lighthearted playfulness.
She teaches a fun and invigorating vinyasa flow class that emphasizes alignment, connection to the breath and exploration of self. Her classes are designed to open the body, build strength and flexibility and most importantly, to cultivate a calm and content state of mind.
Katie Cosgrove
Originally from Portland, Oregon, Katie started practicing yoga in 2003 during her first year in college. She was drawn back to the class time after time not only by how great the physical practice made her feel but also by the calm and content she experienced at the end of each class. After exploring many styles of yoga she found what resonated with her most were Hatha and Vinyasa style classes. Later while living in Australia, she fell madly in love with Yin Yoga as well. In 2009 Katie completed her 200-hour teacher training at a Satyananda ashram in Nashik India. After finishing her teacher training, she decided to move to Sydney Australia and ended up staying to teach there for five years. During her time in Australia, she had the pleasure of studying under and working with some of Sydney's best yoga teachers including Kate Kendall, Melanie Mclaughlin and Murray Hatton. Katie's philosophy is that yoga is for every body and every individual practice should be unique to the person practicing. The most important part of the practice is not how flexible you are or how many amazing arm balances you can do, but how much you can let go of all of that and instead find peace in being yourself.top
James Doherty
Let go of your mind, and hold on to your yoga mat! James integrates asana, breath work and meditation into a flow that will help you take flight. He first experienced yoga in his grandmother's garden. As a child, he continued this yoga education under the tutelage of his Tae Kwon Do instructor. Later as a teenager, an illness brought him to holistic medicine, where he began to understand the mind-body connection, and the nature of dis-ease. As an adult, having healed an "un-healable" back injury on the yoga mat, James was inspired to share what he had learned, and an unexpected spiritual awakening kept him on this track. His preferred style is warm vinyasa flow, although you can call it whatever you want.
Yoga is co-creation and while he's happy to instruct, he's more interested in journeying with you. An avid festival chaser, his playlists will have you wiggling your tailbone between poses, as you dance with your breath. Bring a friend, bring a loved one, bring your Self, and let's do this!top
Roy Gan
A classically trained dancer from Singapore, with over a decade of experience in professional dance, teaching and choreography, a non-practicing lawyer and Registered Yoga Alliance teacher, Roy's classes are about taking the blinders off and giving oneself the radical permission to honestly explore what one's mind and body are capable of. A testament to the transformative, grounding and healing power of the Yoga practice, Roy's mission is to encourage an inner intuitive listening and to raise one's consciousness to embrace all aspects of the human experience freely. With a mindful practice, he supports people in honoring and appreciating themselves and provides a safe and non-judgmental space for them to discover their inherent greatness. Drawing also from the disciplines of qigong, martial arts and ballet, Roy teaches a dynamically sequenced yoga flow that encourages a holistic awareness of breath and proper alignment; strength and flexibility; functionality in movement and conscious co-ordination. "It's about bringing the necessary consciousness into everything we do. The practical mind training aspect of Yoga is an invaluable tool to help one to first, be aware of the obstacles to freedom and then allowing these obstructions the unhealed mind makes upon reality to be gently removed. Steady determination and a sustained yoga practice will help one to ground in unqualified awareness... to allow the human being to live a loving, healthy, abundant and fearless life." - http://www.roygan.comtop
Jody Hahn
Jody took her first yoga class in 2001 in Los Angeles, inspired by a friend who had demonstrated a handstand. She remembers that first class well - the physical challenge and the focus required, mixed with an exciting feeling of clarity. She did not do a handstand that day but she was hooked on yoga, and two years later graduated from The Center for Yoga Teacher Training Program in LA. She has been teaching ever since.
Her classes are infused with the philosophy that we are, all of us, engaged in a process at all times which can be illustrated by finishing any statement with "yet": "I can't do this (yet)"... "I'm not flexible (yet)." If one can be involved in the process and not focused on the outcome, then both the process and the outcome may be surprising and rewarding. We are explorers - discovering poses, discovering mental clarity, discovering how we deal with challenges and, maybe, discovering some spiritual awareness. Oh, yeah - and it helps to keep a sense of humor about all of it.top
Benjamin Leslie
Ben earned his first 200 hour yoga teaching certification at the Nosara Yoga Institute in Costa Rica in 2010 and has completed another 280 hours of training with Rusty Wells, Jason Crandell and others in San Francisco. Ben's knowledge of alignment, anatomy and breathwork has helped many practitioners develop greater strength, flexibility, balance and resilience. The highlight of Ben's yogic journey so far is the three months he spent living in Rishikesh, India in 2010 when he experienced some of the profound physical and philosophical aspects of a yogic life.
Ben was born and raised in the Midwest, educated at Brown and Oxford and has been based in San Francisco for 12 years.top
Diana Oppenheim
Diana is an in-it-for-life yogi. Born and raised in the mid-west, she has an affinity for simplicity, small acts of kindness and the freshest food ever. The practice of yoga is her grounding force in an ever-changing world. She rides her bike everywhere, plays disc golf, marathons good sci-fi and is also a novice runner. Diana teaches yoga but will always consider herself a student of life first. In her class you will find a strong, methodical and balanced sequence that meets each student where they are at. She has a master's degree in Urban Planning and Community Development and for all the plans she's created, she loves the spontaneous plot twists of life.top
Maria Schulman
Maria began practicing yoga in 2006, as a way to manage the stress of graduate school. Yoga quickly took over her life and in 2011 she completed a 200-hour Certification through Yoga to the People. She currently is at work on a 500-hour certification with Kripalu. In 2013, she completed a 50-hour Rocket Yoga training with It's Yoga in San Francisco. Maria is also trained to teach the 26 hot postures. She loves learning and practicing different yoga styles and ultimately believes that these variants feed into a single practice: yoga is simply the process of focusing on breath. She hopes to bring her students heightened awareness of their own possibilities and power.top
Nicole Tierre Thompson
Nicole has been committed to practicing and teaching yoga for more than 12 years. A devoted runner, Nicole began practicing yoga in Santa Barbara, California as a way to supplement her marathon training. Almost immediately, she recognized the time spent on the mat and with others in the yoga community were invaluable aspects of her life.
Nicole completed her teaching certification at Chicago-based yogaview and worked in various settings across the windy city to bring a yoga asana practice to individuals who sought a better and more thoughtful awareness of her/his body. Her teaching style is influenced by senior teachers in both Anusara and Ashtanga. For Nicole, it is vital to teach every student as they are and then encourage them to test their "edge" with kindness and compassion.
Nicole's overall intention for her classes is to create an environment in which students discover something new about themselves through physical movement, connection to breath and clarity of mind. She has been in love with running for over 13 years and laces up her running shoes on a daily basis to get in her "moving meditation".top

Ghost pepper Trinidad plant a not looking great.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my plant, I live in Houston tx, temps have been around 90s high himidity. I keep them outside in the shade.
Vic this is only my second year growing peppers but if I had to guess I would say you are probably overwatering. Peppers wilt every day in the heat but that does not mean they need watered everyday. Wait until the sun goes down and it cools off if they donâÂÂt perk up then you can water. I water about once a week. Just a thought but wait and see what the experts say.
soil looks a bit to wet and you could be adding a little to much nitrogen.... no need to keep them in the shade if they have been hardened off properly they enjoy the heat i would also put them into larger pots that small of a black pot will heat up fast in direct sun cooking the roots .looks like a lot of bark in your soil with not much Perlite for better drainage them roots need to breath ....
@scott thanks I am going to take your advice, and go easy on the watering and fertilizer . @ Armageddon this Texas sun is brutal man and I am planning on repotting it , do you have any advice on what size container should I use? I have on Trinidad and one bhut(ghost)
I'm sure this won't be the most popular answer, but Miracle Grow Moisture Control potting mix has worked very well for me this year. It works for controlling both too much and too little moisture, and has enough Nitrogen to get your plants well established.
Once potted, sprinkle 1/4 cup of Tomato Tome or Jobes Organic Tomato around your larger plant. Do the same to your other plant once it gets to be about that size too. It has a higher concentration of Phosphorus which will help the plants bud and produce pods. It will also have some Calcium and Mg to help prevent blossom rot, though you may want to add some bone meal and Epsom salts once pods emerge to be sure you have enough.
Also make sure your new pots have drainage holes. If they don't, drill some on the bottom and sides down low.
Good luck!
I concur. MGMC is not the "best" mix you can use (a subject that has been known to start flame wars), but it is a good, solid, hassle-free choice, and readily available. Buy more than you ever imagine needing (i.e. the big bag).
Where are you? MGMC is distinctly different between regions. E.g. the MGMC in Georgia was dark and fluffy with a healthy dose of perlite. The version here in Texas is lighter, stringier, and almost hydrophobic, and given the option I'd mix in some perlite. But both grow good plants.
Miracle Grow also does a good general purpose fertilizer if you don't find mecdave's tomato stuff. Use one with an NPK ratio like 24-8-16 (multiple of 3-1-2).
Good luck,
DMCForcierz: I'm in the Hill Country. The MG here is dark, well chopped, fluffy (w/some compacting in the bag), and very little perlite. It certainly does have a surface tension to it. Have to stir the water into it in the starter cups or the MG just floats on top.
I'm still liking the results though. ;)
On average (even during fruiting stages) plants use 6 times more Nitrogen than Phosphorous, so it really makes no sense to use High P fertilizers....in fact, it's a total myth, gimmick, and waste of money. While slightly backing off on Nitrogen is a decent technique for northern and short-season growers, there is no evidence that increasing P will help with or force blossom or pod production. The only time that a small increase in P will affect production is if the P was actually lacking in the mix....and that almost never happens.

Our first Sherr's cabinet assembled
DH and I have assembled most of the Ikea cabinets for our soon-to-be kitchen, but needed three custom ones in depths that Ikea didn't support. We ordered them from Sherr's and the box arrived last week. We spent today putting them together and are happy with how they look so far.
The cabinet boxes we ordered are MDF with walnut edge bands, drawers are solid maple with dovetail joints, slides are Blum Tandembox with Blumotion soft close (slightly nicer than the Ikea Blum slides), and the drawer fronts are grain-matched walnut veneer. The smaller 4-drawer cabinet is going in the hall niche outside the kitchen and its drawer fronts have a vertical grain. The other two cabinets are going to be our island and have a horizontal grain to match the rest of the custom walnut drawer fronts in the kitchen.
Here are a couple of pictures of the process.
They came well-wrapped in cardboard on a pallet. We'd started taking the cardboard off at this point:
Laying out the first cabinet:
Screwing in the drawer slides first, a trick we learned when assembling the Ikea drawers:
The first cabinet mostly finished, some minor adjustments needed. We're using finger pulls from Mockett (to be added).
The other two will make up the island. We didn't install the drawers yet as there's dust and chaos everywhere and we don't want to risk them getting dirty or damaged.
A wider view of our living room, with range on the right and Ikea cabinet doors for the upper cabinets (Abstrakt high gloss white) still in boxes.
The kitchen was just insulated yesterday, sheetrock to go in next week. The niche where the first cabinet will be is visible in the hallway on the right of the picture.
We're not living in the house, thank goodness!
Wow. Those are gorgeous! Did you specify the vertical grain or is that how they come OR is it the grain matching that makes it look like that? Mackeral! I love how that drawer base looks like a single slab of wood. Cannot wait to see the rest of your pictures! That's enough for me to rethink quarter sawn oak.
Beautiful. Please post more pics as you can!
Hi deedles, you were asking about the grain. Yes, we specified the grain matching and indicated vertical for the first cabinet. There was an upcharge for this. We loved the look of the matching grain with these slab cabinets.
For the rest of the Ikea cabinets, we ordered doors from Semihandmade. The grain matching is horizontal. Anything can be done with what's basically a 4'x8' slab of walnut veneer.
Here are Semihandmade cabinet doors for one of our Ikea cabinets. We haven't screwed these into the cabinets yet - did I mention that there's a lot of dust?
Sheet of walnut:
Here is a link that might be useful: SemiHandMade Doors
It sounds complicated because we couldn't do 100% Ikea cabinets. Here's what we've got:
- all perimeter cabinets are Ikea. Base cabinets on the sink/stove walls will have doors from SemiHandMade in horizontal walnut. Upper cabinets on the sink/stove walls will have Ikea doors (Abstrakt high gloss white or glass) with side panels in walnut, also from SemiHandMade. All cabinets on the fridge wall are Atbtrakt high gloss white. We're thinking of a walnut butcher block counter under the microwave.
- the island cabinets are only 18" deep. We could have cut down 24" deep Ikea cabinets and used them, but then we couldn't have drawers. So we decided to order those two 30"x18" base cabinets from Sherr's, including the drawer fronts. It seemed safer to do that rather than coordinate SemiHandMade drawer fronts with Sherr's drawer sizes. These two island cabinets also have a horizontal grain. The variation in walnut sheets isn't that great, so we were willing to live with slight differences, if any. We haven't unpacked those drawer fronts yet (dust, chaos, etc) - they're for the 2nd & 3rd cabinets in my original post.
- the vertical grain cabinet in the picture in my first post is for a niche that's just outside the kitchen in the hallway from the garage. It's through the doorway in the plan below.
Here's the plan:
AnnaKathryn-I'm looking at your pics trying to decide in which direction we should go. Curious why you chose Semi Handmade over Scherrs walnut doors? You obviously utilized both companies, so just curious as to your thought process.
Hi drybean,
We could have gone 100% Sherr's for all doors (great company!) but we visited SemiHandMade last spring and really liked the quality of the doors we saw there. The main reason we went with SHM for the rest of the doors was that they were slightly less expensive and their lead time was about a month less than Sherr's. As it turned out we had everything assembled and ready to go long before our contractor could install anything, so the lead time wouldn't have mattered.
We also weren't concerned about any variation in the walnut because the cabinets weren't going to be right next to each other. As it turned out, the wood tone was very close and no one can tell that the doors came from different suppliers.
Here's a picture of the niche cabinet (Sherr's) with the SemiHandMade doors in the kitchen. From Kitchen
Hope that helps.
Thanks so much for your reply. Your kitchen is just gorgeous, and I love the the mirror in the niche-I don't think that was there in the last photo I saw.
I'm happy to hear you are just as happy wit SHM as Scherrs. I've not yet seen a real love sample of either yet, but I live close to SHM so hopefully can get one quickly.
Imsorry to pester you, but I see that you have the walnut end panel on upper. That is SHM too correct? I like that idea.

Hi drybean, yes, the upper end panels are SemiHandMade. We thought the white might be too stark on those 2 walls and so wanted to bring in some of the walnut above the counters. This is how it ended up, which we like a lot: From Kitchen
Something else we considered was running the walnut across the window and/or above the hood. If we'd had a better finish carpenter available we might had done more with the walnut, but our general contractor didn't have one.
Here are a couple of inspiration pictures.
