Bikram Yoga DecaturRead MoreSkill and experience don't matter at Bikram Yoga Decatur. Students of all levels can attend the studio's 90-minute Bikram yoga classes and gradually develop their practice at a comfortable pace. Each class meets in a room heated to 105 degrees and consists of the same sequence of two breathing exercises, 26 standing and seated asanas, and three high-fives. The combination of heat and powerful, sustained stretches systematically engages organs and muscle groups throughout the body while increasing circulation. In addition to improving strength, flexibility, and balance over time, Bikram yoga practice also requires keen mental focus and it hones awareness of mind-body connections. To complement students' practice, the studio hosts two additional class types. For practitioners pressed for time, sixty-minute classes (Core 26) use the exact same Bikram poses in a more dynamic, flow sequence. For students already experienced with the style, intermediate classes (Master Core) introduce 19 additional postures into the sequence, including asanas that strengthen the core, arms, and upper body. Master Core classes are heated to approximately 90 degrees.1549 Clairmont Rd.Decatur, GA US
Dahn YogaRead More"Our brain is designed to realize what we wish, without any minor errors," says Dahn Yoga founder Ilchi Lee. "If you want success, it will create success. If you want happiness or health, it will create them. Anything is possible, as long as negative thoughts and emotions don't interfere." To make this challenging, yet hopeful philosophy accessible to all, Lee combined the Eastern concept of chi energy with his own brain-management system, developing a distinctive program that unlocks inner peace and sweeps up brain clutter caused by the daily stress of always having to find Waldo. Warm-up yoga maneuvers awaken muscles before 30–40 minutes of breathing, stretching, core practice, and meditation—including a signature brain-wave vibration technique that aims to calibrate mental and physical energies. Cooldown exercises ease the body back into quotidian functionality before a 10-minute teatime invites socialization among participants while bolstering pinkie endurance.710 Holcomb Bridge RdRoswell, GA US
The Open Mind CenterRead MoreCalendar space is a hot commodity at The Open Mind Center.

A horse silhouetted with blue. Men's hands holding out lipsticks. A woman crouching next to a roll of toilet paper. Such madcap images and more taken from Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari's Toiletpaper magazine are splashed across seven front windows of Paris' Palais de Tokyo. The new project, supported by Berluti, was feted Tuesday night with a cocktail party at the contemporary art museum.
Cattelan, who hammed it up for photographers, said it's impossible to choose which image he likes best.
"It's like having a family and asking which one is your preferred kid," he said. "[I like] all of them…."
Antoine Arnault, chief executive officer of Berluti, said he's been a fan of Cattelan's "forever. He's fun, he's deep, he's crazy. He's smart, he's witty. I love him. He's hilarious."
That said, Arnault hasn't collected any of the artist's work yet. "Unfortunately, it's too expensive for me," he demurred.
And as to whether there's a link between Berluti and toilet paper, Arnault exclaimed: "There is none, and that's what I love about it."
Other guests at the party included Xavier Veilhan, Ora-ïto and Alessandro Sartori.

WASHINGTON: More than 32 million U.S. households have met the federal government's criteria for its DTV converter-box coupon program. More than 59 million coupons had been requested by June 3, and more than 58 million had been mailed. Eligible households can request up to two of the $40 coupons good against certified converter boxes. As directed by Congress, the coupons expire within 90 days of issue; nearly 22 million have done so, while more than 30 million have been redeemed. Another 6.1 million remain active. The request rate over the course of the program stands at 114,104 per day. Over the last month, it was 76,297 per day; the week prior to June, 3, it was 92,530 per day. The fed's total expenditure so far on the DTV converter coupon program is $1.186 billion. Committed funding totals $1.484 billion. Another $345.8 million remains available for the program. Around 2,100 retailers are carrying converter boxes at more than 31,000 locations, quite a few of them being Radio Shacks. One week now remains before 974 full-power TV stations stop broadcasting in analog and go all-digital. A soft test performed by many of those stations on May 21, generated 55,000 phone calls to the FCC's DTV hotline. More than half the calls were about the fed's coupon program, which is being managed by the National Telecommunications and Information Agency. As of May 24, Nielsen estimated that around 3.1 million households would have lost all TV reception had the transition occurred on that day. The FCC has stepped up its education efforts to a fever pitch to minimize confusion on June 12. Broadcasters in 41 markets with the highest number of unprepared households will continue airing a "nightlight" program informing people of the transition and providing emergency information. The converter-box coupon program will be accepting requests through July 31. The Leadership Conference on Civil Rights is teaming up with more than 50 community organizations to collect and distribute unused coupons to needy families. To help out, consumers can mail their unredeemed coupons to:Leadership Conference on Civil Rights Education FundNational DTV Coupon Exchange Program P.O. Box 66081Washington, D.C. 20035-- Deborah D.

Broadcast Receiver - AWA, Console, Model 165, 1938 Reg. No: ST 029078
- Summary:
- Battery operated console receiver, 1938. The set was manufactured by Amalgamated Wireless (Australasia) Ltd., who also donated it to the Museum.
Such a console receiver would have taken pride of place in a living room; it costt 29 guineas.
It used Superheterodyne technology, invented in 1918, enabling the listener to tune a signal precisely and seperate it from other signals with similar wavelenghts. As more and more stations came on the air, tuning of radio without this technology, became more and more difficult, due to overlapping of station wavelenghts, especially at night.
Mode 165 had five valves and had an eight inch speaker (A. W. A. Permag Type).
- Acquisition Information:
- Donation from Amalgamated Wireless (Australasia) Ltd., 1975

Really had a great time in this resort. Not always 100% perfect but nothing that you would sweat over.this is going to be a long review so apologies in advance:)
Arrived late at night about 10.30pm and were quickly checked into our pool view preferred room( on a higher floor with king size bed which was huuugggee!! Thanks to Marcelino getting my requests) offered a drink and directed to our room straight away.
Had a quick look around,a few drinks and on the prowl for food as we're pretty hungry after a long journey. We were told we could order room service 24hrs but chose the sports bar midnight snacks, from 12-2 nightly, with burgers, hotdogs, pizza, fries and little sandwiches we frequented here often on the way back to our room after the club.they were good!!
Woke up next morning to beautiful sunshine, explored the beautiful beach, lovely pools, lively main pool and more chilled at the preferred. Grounds very nice and staff constantly working to keep it that way.
Food- I was very worried about this after some bad reviews but I was very pleasantly surprised. We ate in all restaurants, menu choice and food quality good in all. Our fave was Capers, followed closely by Spice. Ate in both twice, a la carte and teppanyaki table in spice, was best teppanyaki food I've ever had and I've been in about 6, just full of flavour. Saltinbocca and carpaccio in capers great. Decent steak and ribs in blue water grill. French was just ok but maybe I was expecting more. Breakfast was ok, I didn't like the buffet room as felt like a cafeteria so chose to eat in castaways, nicer environment but less choice. Never got good service in the buffet, ate twice as hubby didn't want to wear long pants and shoes but didn't seat us in preferred area, second time we had to ask to a big sigh as a response. Castaways good lunch but would like more choice, love the shrimp and fish skewer, hubby loved the hotdogs at the grill.
Service- sometimes sketchy in restaurants unless they know you already so takes a few days till your treated as well as you should from the beginning. Some staff stood out immediately as really enjoying their jobs, Rose, Carlos, Jerebeen at castaways. Gabriel, Marcelino and really all the girls in preferred always so friendly. The best was the lobby bar, Lenny, Felix and Loius so happy in their work, they work as a great team, working fast and multitasking when busy bar and putting on a great show, entertaining the guests and being very attentive when quieter. To be honest if you needed anything anywhere staff really went out of their way. The only exception being the housekeeping, we didn't have bathrobes so asked every day and took. 3 days to get them, they then disappeared after day 8 never to return. We had no turndown 3 or 4 times and while it doesn't really bother me we didn't once have any room decor, towel animals, rose petal baths etc that others have mentioned. Ok that's not gonna ruin my trip but its something I know is important to some.
Entertainment-I don't really participate in the pool games etc but they were funny to watch sometimes and there were quiter areas if you really don't want to be involved. I did do morning yoga on the beach most days and aquarobica a few times. Chocolate was the best at this and Eddie Murphy was ok although a little Over the top to the point of rude at times.
Evening entertainment was nice, some good musicians in the lobby or plaza for low key entertainment as a few good shows in between the usual silly resort games that aren't really my scene. The fire show at the beach was good, Jeerk was different, we were there for their first night and the hype was fabulous, they walked around the pool area in the day with big burly security guards, had big red carpet reception with paparazzi and appletinis and a big limo like a movie premier feel, was very funny but the show wasn't really up to the hype. After 2 rock songs it turned into a 'stomp, type tap show, better than usual resort shows but I wouldn't go twice and it wasn't what I was expecting. Magic show was ok too but the best really was the Circus show, extremely impressive, even if you don't normally do the show thing do not miss this.
Nightclub was probably my favourite hotel nightclub ever mainly due to the outdoor location. It meant we could watch but not have to be in the middle of a sweaty dance floor as my husband does not do dancing:) also there is a little pool which you.re not allowed to swim in:( but is great to sit and paddle your feet. The music was nearly always good although the last couple of nights was more Spanish based which would be fine if it was filling the dancer look but it wasn't then they would play something more dance/pop and the dance floor would fill then they went straight back to the Spanish music and dance floor emptied. Didn't get it and was a shame because we ended up going back to the room earlier last couple of nights.
Highlights- wasn't going to do any excursions but after trying out the Segway on the beach I was hooked and had to do that. The beach you go to is Amazing, like stepping into a postcard. I loved the Segway and the trip was fun. The quality of food and drink in one of the best AI we,ve been on for a great price. I liked preferred club but if price s an issue you could easily do without although I liked the perks it gave me, sushi and canapés before dinner, breakfast in castaways and outside jacuzzi. Lobby bar staff entertained us the whole trip, will miss them most.
Downsides- restaurant service in a la cartes was sketchy. Always seemed to a lot of 'big bosses' about but they seemed to do little. Didn't get any personal concierge treatment in our room and housekeeping was also impersonal. Wanted to order good red wine and ay extra but returned because all red wine s kept in fridge with white, they offered to run it under hot water for me !!!
Also they clear the bars well before closing time so what you want is not available. I also think preferred club closes too early at 11pm as I would like to go after dinner and shows for dessert and nightcap but they clear the desserts and start putting away drinks from 10.30.
We did get to experience a day in secrets next door, if I had the money I would pay it, the peace and quiet, the lazy river, the restaurants even better and very beautifully done out, the beach bar, the atmosphere just felt a notch up however it would also be nice then to go to now in the evenings for a livelier entertainment scene and more choices to eat. It was really a great end to our holiday.

Santo Domingo Travel Guide
Christopher Columbus tried to settle in the "New World" several times before getting it right. The first and second attempts, La Navidad (in Haiti) and La Isabela (near Puerto Plata), were plagued with fire and disease. It wasn't until the third time, on an opposite coast of Hispaniola, that he and his men perfected the recipe. To this day, Santo Domingo is still a lively, thriving metropolis; the capital city of the Dominican Republic ... continue» Read More
When to Visit Santo Domingo
The best time to visit Santo Domingo is between November and March. That's when this city experiences its best beach weather, even if there aren't any great beaches to enjoy it on. April to July also makes a nice to time for travel, but at all costs you should avoid this area during the hurricane season, from August to October. Whenever you visit you'll find the hotel rates are agreeable; even the best properties have rooms available for less than $100 a night.Read More Best Times to Visit Santo Domingo»

Joan Alexandra Molinsky (born June 8, 1933), better known by her stage name Joan Rivers, is an American television personality, comedian, and actress. She is known for her brash manner; her loud, raspy voice with a heavy New York accent; and her numerous cosmetic surgeries. Rivers' comic style relies heavily on her ability to poke fun at herself and other Hollywood celebrities.
Joan Rivers was born Joan Alexandra Molinsky in Brooklyn, a borough of New York City, the daughter of Russian Jewish immigrants Beatrice (née Grushman; January 6, 1906 – October 1975) and Meyer C. Molinsky (December 7, 1900 – January 1985). She was raised in Brooklyn, New York, and her family later moved to Larchmont, in Westchester County, New York. She attended Connecticut College between 1950 and 1952 and graduated from Barnard College in 1954 with a bachelor-of-arts degree in English literature and anthropology. Before entering show business, Rivers worked at various jobs such as a tour guide at Rockefeller Center, a writer/proofreader at an advertising agency and as a fashion consultant at Bond Clothing Stores. During this period, the agent Tony Rivers advised her to change her name, so she chose Joan Rivers as her stage name.

The riveting first-person narrative of a young man who grows to be the most notorious magician his world has ever seen. From his childhood in a troupe of traveling players, to years spent as a near-feral orphan in a crime- ridden city, to his daringly brazen yet successful bid to enter a legendary school of magic, "The Name of the Wind" is a masterpiece that transports readers into the body and mind of a wizard. It is a high-action novel written with a poet's hand, a powerful coming-of-age story of a magically gifted young man, told through his eyes: to read this book is to be the hero.
About the AuthorPatrick Rothfuss was born in Wisconsin where long winters and lack of cable television brought about a love of reading and writing. His mother read to him as a child, and his father taught him to build things. If you are looking for the roots of his storytelling, look there. He still lives in central Wisconsin, still lacks cable television, teaches at the college he grew to love as a student and the long winters force him to stay inside and write.

Letter: Keep school doors locked to prevent tragedy
John Arena, Fort Pierce
Letter: Keep school doors locked
Some 50 years ago, I was driving past my elementary school and decided to go in to see how it would feel as an adult.
I walked the halls, went up the stairs, looked into the classrooms where I spent many hours.
I guess I was lucky — classes were in session and no one approached me.
Today, with junk food and drugs and TV cartoons serving up outlandish scenarios seen by small children in their formative years, school doors should be locked with a buzzer system to the principal's office.
This would have averted Columbine and, more recently, Sandy Hook.
It's about the same thing you do at home.
When the principal sees a person dressed in black carrying a rifle, it's not likely that the door would be opened.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 3/4/13
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco has signed a new contract worth $120.6 million over six years, making him the highest paid player in NFL history. The Super Bowl MVP finalized the deal Monday. Flacco will receive a $29 million signing bonus and $52 million in guaranteed money. Flacco says, ''It's not really about the money, it's about that respect.'' The 28-year-old Flacco threw 11 touchdown passes and no interceptions during the postseason and led the Ravens to a Super Bowl win over San Francisco. That probably helped him in negotiations, but Flacco says, ''I think I'm an asset to this team. ... The fact that we won the Super Bowl just comes with that. If we didn't win the Super Bowl this year, I still think I'm worth the same.''

He is the recipient of a 2002 NEA Literature Fellowship and a 2004 Howard Foundation fellowship, both for literary translation, as well as two Fulbright research awards to Croatia.
And if that's not enough, he's also the founder and publisher of Autumn Hill Books (a few months back we reviewed Becka McKay's translation of Suzane Adam's Laundry, which was published by Autumn Hill), and was recently named the editor of the Iowa Review, replacing David Hamilton, who has been editing the journal for the past 2 years. (And yes, Russell has plans for bringing more translation to the pages of the Iowa Review. And launching an online review section that may even cover some books not yet translated into English.)
Unfortunately, we interviewed Russell before coming up with the "favorite word in any language question" (Russell: maybe you could add something in the comments?), but here are the rest of his responses with my comments in italics:
Most Difficult Translation You've Ever Done: Persuasion and Rhetoric by Carlo Michelstaedter
As you might have noticed, Russell rephrased our question from "best thing you've ever translated" to "most difficult," pointing out that it took him ten years to complete this book, which was published by Yale University Press in 2004 and is available (in part) via Google Books. I don't know much about the book itself, but this brief description from Amazon.com sounds intriguing . . . and a bit depressing:
Ostensibly a commentary on Plato's and Aristotle's relation to the pre-Socratic philosophers, Michelstaedter's deeply personal book is an extraordinary rhetorical feat that reflects the author's struggle to make sense of modern life. This edition includes an introduction discussing his life and work, an extensive bibliography, notes to introduce each chapter, and critical notes illuminating the text.
hours of completing Persuasion and Rhetoric, his doctoral thesis, 23-year-old Michelstaedter shot himself to death. The text he left behind has proved to be one of the most trenchant and influential studies in modern rhetoric, a work that develops Nietzschean themes and anticipates the conclusions of, among others, Martin Heidegger.
Books You Think Need to Be Published in English: La Langue maternelle and Apres J.C. by Vassilis Alexakis
One of the joys of asking a lot of translators what books should be published in English is finding out about authors you've never heard of . . . although maybe you should have. Alexakis isn't exactly unknown, having won the Prix de l´Académie Française in 2007 for Apres J.C. Of course, there's not much info available on him in English, but according to Wikipedia (World's Favorite Go To Source for Quick Info), he "is a Greek-French writer of numerous novels in Greek, his mother tongue, and French. His works, drawn from two cultures, are full of tender irony; his style gives the reader an intimate and personal perspective on his stories." Although neither of these two books are available in English, Autumn Hill published Alyson Waters's translation of "Foreign Words"http://www.autumnhillbooks.com/foreign_words/foreign_words.htm a few years back. Here's the AHB description:
Foreign Words is a book that takes us on a journey through time and space with the story teller as he travels from Paris where he lives as the book opens, to Greece where he grew up, and where his father has just died, to the Central African Republic as he undertakes the study of Sango.
Why learn Sango is a question the book's narrator himself has trouble answering. His ruminations on the surprising decision to study it are both humorous and penetrating.

There's little to say about a series of prose poems that willfully refuse to identify pronoun antecedents. Or perhaps there are a million things. The poems in Morse, My Deaf Friend— the chapbook by Miloš Djurdjević published by Ugly Duckling. . .
The Crimson Thread of Abandon is the first collection of short fiction available in English by the prolific Japanese writer and all-around avant-garde trickster Terayama Shūji, who died in 1983 at the age of 47. This collection would be important. . .
Last year, NYRB Classics introduced English-language readers to Catalan writer Josep Pla with Peter Bush's translation of The Gray Notebook. In that book, Pla wrote about life in Spain during an influenza outbreak soon after World War I, when. . .

Mahasweta Devi is not only one of the most prolific Bengali authors, but she's also an important activist. In fact, for Devi, the two seem to go together. As you can probably tell from the titles, she writes about women. . .

I finally decided that I was DONE and in December asked STBX for a D. Woot! It will be final in about a week. YEAH!
He decided to leave his job here and move to Colorado with his girlfriend. Yep. I found out that the skank he supposedly had a "one night stand" with in 94/95 when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter, he actually had at least a 2-3 year long steady relationship with, and they have been "off and on" since then!!! NINETEEN YEARS! Plus there were all the others as well... OY VEY!! I'm SO glad I finally got the guts to end it. What a douche.
I am moving to the Oregon Coast in about 2 weeks and am SO HAPPY!! Seriously - if I would have known how happy I was going to be without the asshat I would have done this a LONG time ago. I let fear control me. NO MORE.

It's kind of bittersweet to have this new beginning.
I moved out of our marital home last summer and into a much smaller home and I am in the process of painting the interior of our home and planting a perennial garden.
One of the most enjoyable things for me is to pick my own color scheme for the interior and exterior!! I take my small pleasures where I can get them but I have to say I am so loving these "small" things.
Embrace your new life!!
I sent you a private message about your move to OR.
Hope to hear from you. If I don't, good luck with everything and I hope you find what you are looking for.
