Heathcote Health signs up to joint health study
A joint Heathcote Health project aims to identify new ways of improving the health and wellbeing of the Heathcote community.January 17, 2013 4:34am
Heathcote Health has joined forces with other regional health services and La Trobe University as part of project which aims to identify new ways of improving the health and wellbeing of the Heathcote community.
Along with Rural North West Health and Rochester and Elmore District Health Service, the hospital will work closely with La Trobe University over the next 12 to 18 months to involve district residents in an innovative, community-based health project.
La Trobe Rural Health School's Professor Jane Farmer said the project was a good opportunity to empower communities from within.
''Often communities are asked their opinion and then researchers go away and develop solutions that often don't meet community need,'' Prof. Farmer said.
''This project is driven by the community. Community members will work together over a twelve to eighteen month period to discuss, develop and test great ideas.''
Prof. Farmer said for sustainable community planning, people must have the right information.
''In each community we will have an experienced team of researchers that will support the community to ensure that they have the information they need to really understand their community,'' she said.
''There will be exciting opportunities to look at what has been done well in their community and also to see the innovation that has occurred in other communities,'' Prof. Farmer said.
To take part in the project, contact Heathcote Health on 5431

We present a closed-loop adaptive optics system based on a holographic sensing method. The system uses a multiplexed holographic recording of the response functions of each actuator in a deformable mirror. By comparing the output intensity measured in a pair of photodiodes, the absolute phase can be measured over each actuator location. From this a feedback correction signal is applied to the input beam without need for a computer. The sensing and correction is applied to each actuator in parallel, so the bandwidth is independent of the number of actuator. We demonstrate a breadboard system using a 32-actuator MEMS deformable mirror capable of operating at over 10kHz without a computer in the loop.
© 2014 Optical Society of America
1. Introduction
Traditional adaptive optics systems use wavefront sensors that require a significant amount of computational overhead [1–3]. This includes the measurements as well as the derivation of phase information from those measurements. Additionally, wavefront phase is usually expressed using some orthogonal basis set such as Zernike polynomials which then has to be translated into particular actuator motions for closed-loop correction. One approach by the author and others [4–12], involves the use of a multiplexed hologram constructed by recording the maximum and minimum expected phase amplitudes of a finite number of Zernike modes. While this method has been shown to work, it suffers from low photometric efficiency as all holograms required for each mode are multiplexed in the same location. Additionally, there is still the large amount of computational overhead in translating the final amplitudes of the Zernike polynomials into individual actuator motions in the phase corrector.
Here we present an alternative solution which uses a multiplexed hologram specially constructed to directly analyze the wavefront error based on actuator response functions. Essentially this modifies the previous holographic adaptive optics approaches by recording "modes" that are based on the actual response functions of each actuator. In operation, the phase information is derived from fast photodetector measurements of stationary reconstructed focal spots. Both the detection, sensing and corrective feedback are achieved with minimal, parallel computations, making it faster than conventional systems while being easily scaled to a large number of actuators without loss of speed.
2. Theory
To best understand the operation of the holographic adaptive optics system it is often instructive to consider the construction of the holographic optical element. For our system we used an optical recording scheme, though with a good knowledge of the response functions of the deformable mirror (DM) a computer generated hologram is an equally viable solution. In our scheme a plane wave is reflected off an actuator in the deformable mirror that has been pushed to its maximum extent to impose some local phase delay (Fig. 1(a)). A hologram is recorded between this object beam and a convergent reference beam focused to some distant point A. Note that the property of a hologram is such that if the initial recording geometry for the actuator and input object beam remained the same, such a hologram would reconstruct a beam focused to this same point A.
Fig. 1
We now record a second hologram on the first – this time with the actuator pulled to its maximum extent to give the maximum phase delay, and a reference beam focused to a different point B (Fig. 1(b)). If the actuator is now set to some arbitrary value between maximum and minimum phase delay, the object beam created does not match either of the recording cases. As such, the imperfect phase matching results in the reconstruction of two focused beams (Fig. 1(c)). The phase mismatch also imposes a curvature term onto each beam that gives rise to a slight focus to one and defocus to the other. By measuring the power transmitted through pinholes located at points A and B it is possible to derive a simple, direct relationship between focal spot intensity ratio and phase.
The procedure above describes the method for detecting phase over a given actuator location. To create a general wavefront sensor, a separate pair of multiplexed holograms are recorded for each actuator in the same manner. Each new pair, however, can be located in a different spatial location on the holographic medium so as not to reduce the overall efficiency. If we now take an input beam that fills the entire aperture and reflect this off the deformable mirror and on to the hologram, many pairs of focused beams are reconstructed (Fig. 1(d)). Note that the actual spatial arrangement of the focal spots or actuators is not critical but will most likely be determined by the geometry of the detector used.
In essence, where a Shack-Hartmann sensor detects local tilt over a given subaperture, the holographic wavefront sensor is measuring defocus. A key difference, however, is that with global tip/tilt removed, the focal spots remain centered on the pinholes and detectors. The phase is found simply by measuring a response function based on the relative power through each pinhole - something which can be accomplished at bandwidth of 100kHz rates or higher (assuming sufficient light flux) even using inexpensive photodetectors.
As in conventional holography, we can define the recorded hologram by the interference pattern formed from the object beam [13],
The first and second terms are just modifications of the object beam which we ignore in this case. The third term is the conjugate of the reference beam, which means that it is diverging in our setup. The last term is the spherical reference beam collected by the detector and proportional to the object beam (used in the writing of the hologram) convolved with the beam under investigation.
Figure 2(a) shows a schematic of the reconstruction geometry for a portion of the beam reflected from a single actuator. With a pair of multiplexed holograms, this single beam will diffract from the hologram to reconstruct two focused beams to two fixed pinholes. In the figures we see the effect of the actuator driven to the two extremes (maximum push and pull) as indicated by the solid and dashed lines respectively. Note that for the desired flat condition, the light transmitted through the pinholes will be equalized, as neither beam will be perfectly in focus.
Fig. 2
Rather than using a simple ratio of the pairs of sensor voltages (Va and Vb), we use a fractional energy difference to derive a response function so that E = (Va-Vb)/(Va + Vb). This dimensionless quantity has the advantage that it is invariant under changing input power and largely insensitive to stray background illumination. For an ideal actuator varied from fully pulled to pushed positions, the resultant response function is shown in Fig. 2(b). With the MEMS mirror used in our experiments detailed here, the actuator motion is nonlinear with applied voltage, having an approximately quadratic response. As such, if we plot the modeled response function against voltage we get the asymmetric curve as shown in Fig. 2(c).
The key here is that the response function is always singly determined for a particular actuator voltage. Using this information the actuators can then be manipulated under one-to-one feedback control to correct for any wavefront errors. This avoids the high computational overhead associated with conventional adaptive optics schemes that require translating wavefront phase from one modal basis set to another, so a simple circuit can manage full closed-loop correction up to MHz rates. In principle, since the actuators are controlled in parallel, the system bandwidth is the same for one actuator as it is for thousands or more.
3. Experiment
We constructed a prototype holographic adaptive laser optics system (HALOS) using a 32-element Boston Micromachines Mini-DM. This micro-electromechanical deformable mirror (MEMS-DM) has actuators spaced 300 microns apart on a 6x6 grid (with the corners inactive). This mirror operates by deforming a continuous facesheet by electrostatic attraction and the nominal flat condition is achieved by setting the voltage on all actuators so that their displacement is 50% of their maximum pull. The "push" condition is achieved by reducing the applied voltage to an actuator and allowing the mirror to relax. We achieved 0.36μm stroke of pull and 0.33μm of push (i.e. a total stroke of 0.69μm) using a custom-made driver. Note that the holographic adaptive optics concept cannot be made to work with a segmented mirror as it is insensitive to discontinuities which can lead to a 2π modulus phase shift ambiguity.
We recorded 64 holograms (32 multiplexed pairs) using a cw Nd:YAG laser (λ = 532nm) with the recording and reconstruction layouts as shown in Fig. 3. Motorized stages were used to move an aperture stop and reposition the fiber-fed reference beam to ensure overlap and correct pointing for each exposure. To eliminate diffractive effects, the aperture is imaged onto the DM which is, in turn, imaged onto the plane of the hologram. For larger deformable mirrors, with small distances between the DM and hologram, this may not be necessary.
Fig. 3
The diameter of the illumination patch for each actuator is approximately 0.5mm (the minimum our variable aperture could achieve). In designing the holographic wavefront sensor it is important to choose an optimum illumination patch isolating the actuator of interest. Too large, and the hologram is unnecessarily recording a redundant extent of flat mirror which will reduce efficiency. Too small, and the hologram will not be recording the full extent of the actuator deformation relative to some global "flat" condition. Our modeling (verified by trial and error) shows that an ideal patch size is 1.2-1.6 times the inter-actuator spacing which is 0.3mm for our DM.
Phase transmission holograms were recorded on dichromated gelatin plate film with 20mW per beam and 50ms exposure per hologram. The angle between recording beams was approximately 20 degrees. Optimizing efficiency was not a primary concern, but we easily managed a total input to output beam diffraction efficiency of 5% - or approximately 100pW per beam for the minimum usable input beam power of 130nW. Here we also note that the system can be adapted to work equally well with transmission, reflection or surface relief holograms, intensity or phase or in any type of medium. There is also the possibility of using holograms recorded at one wavelength for reconstruction at another, thus making it possible for HALOS to operate in the infrared. In such a case, however, allowances have to be made for changes in geometry resulting from dispersion by the grating.
Reconstruction was achieved with a diffraction limited, collimated beam illuminating the entire DM aperture, producing 64 focused spots arranged in a 8x8 grid. We fabricated an array of 350μm pinholes to isolate each focused spot. The light transmitted through each pinhole was collected by 64 elements of a SensL 4p9 avalanche photodiode array. Pairs of these input voltages were then used to generate an error signal for a particular actuator, as defined earlier. By cycling any actuator through its entire range of motion we can measure the response function – an example of which is shown in Fig. 4(a). This data compares well with our model as shown in Fig. 2(c), with the slight difference being due to a minor asymmetry in the mirror shape for the push and pull conditions. Note that both this and the nonlinearity in the actuator response itself pose no limitation to closed-loop correction, so long as the function is singly determined for all actuator voltages across the range of operation.
Fig. 4
For an ideal system with no cross-talk, the motion of one actuator will not give rise to a measurable error signal in a neighboring channel. However, since we have a continuous facesheet deformable mirror, the influence function is such that there will always be some inter-actuator cross-talk. Thus, even driving a single actuator in isolation, a change in the response function will not only be measured for the correct channel, but for the neighboring (stationary) elements as well. We measured this cross-talk for one actuator as shown in Fig. 4(b), where we see that moving one actuator through its entire range results in a minimal change in the response function measured in the neighboring 8 actuators.
Note that each actuator channel has its own unique offset which can be any value (so long as there is sufficient dynamic range accommodated by the digitizer) as it is simply recorded as the target value in the calibration. Note that cross-talk is typically small and it does not prevent the system from closing the loop for diffraction limited correction. It may slow the system down to a minor extent initially (as a few more loop cycles may be required to achieve the zero phase target wavefront error), but since the holographic sensing is still orders of magnitude faster than conventional systems, the effect is rarely noticeable.
HALOS uses inexpensive COTS electronics (four XMOS XS1-L8A-64 processors) for sensing and closed-loop control. The processor power consumption is less than 2.2W and closed-loop latency is 8 microseconds. While this is an order of magnitude better than the best adaptive optics systems, it could be further improved by more than 2 orders of magnitude with more exotic components such as FPGAs or dedicated ASICs. An image of the HALOS set-up is in Fig. 5, along with a magnified image of the hologram lit by white light which clearly shows the square print-through of the actuator pads along with the circular illumination patches. The only required equipment not shown in Fig. 5(a) is the driver and power supply.
Fig. 5
The system requires a one-off calibration where a diffraction-limited plane wave is introduced onto the deformable mirror which is set to its flattened condition. The response function values for each actuator are then recorded and stored in the microprocessor as target values. In closed-loop operation, the microprocessor compares the measured response functions at any particular moment to the target values, and from this generates a control signal to drive each actuator to make the appropriate correction. For example, if the target value for the response function is zero, and the measured value is negative, the actuator voltage is increased to obtain a corresponding increase in the response function. The step size of the adjustments can be varied by changing a gain factor, which is adjusted according to the desired sensitivity and response time. A more advanced system could also include a full characterization of each individual response function curve so that faster, more precise correction could be applied in a single step. In most cases, however, this is likely an unnecessary complication, as the moment-to-moment adjustments are quite small.
The above procedure details the case for obtaining a diffraction-limited plane wave output but the system could be equally calibrated to any desired output wavefront shape in the same manner. The target values can even be altered at any time through a GUI if there are any changes required to the final wavefront shape. Also, while a computer is used for the initial upload of the control program and storage of the one-off calibration target values, the closed-loop control is managed entirely by the processor not a computer. In our current prototype the computer connection is used only for realtime monitoring of the system performance.
Finally, the conventional HALOS configuration (and the one used for experiments described here) uses a beamsplitter to direct part of the beam onto the hologram, while the other portion is the corrected output. However, we can also use a modified design in which the beamsplitter is replaced by a mirror, with all the light directed onto the hologram. In that configuration the undiffracted (zero order) light passing through the hologram can form the output port. This arrangement has the benefit of improving the efficiency at the expense of some dynamic range. The reason is that the hologram may introduce some minor residual aberration to the transmitted beam. In that case, the calibration will require the incorporation of an offset aberration into the deformable mirror to ensure a plane wave output – i.e. instead of the target mirror shape being perfectly flat it will have some initial distortion.
4. Results
Upstream of the holographic adaptive optics system we added a second MEMS-DM, programmed to introduce a random, time-varying wavefront error. The deformable mirror was located at the same plane as the aperture used for the original recording and this "aberrator" could be used for testing the system performance. Global tip/tilt is not introduced by the aberrator DM which is essentially a thin distorter, so there is no need for beam-steering pointing correction. The input beam intensity was adjusted such that the power transmitted through each of the pinholes varied between approximately 50nW to 1μW over the full stroke (well within the sensor sensitivity range of 20nW to 1.4μW).
Our first test was to measure the minimum update rate for the entire system, which involved moving an actuator on the aberrator DM and observing the time taken for the system to sense then move the actuator on the corrector DM. We measured this to be 1ms for the full stroke and faster (<100 μsecs) for correcting minor phase fluctuations. It is important to note that this 10kHz bandwidth is simply a result of inertial limitations in the deformable mirror. We measured the actual electronics full loop latency of just 10 microseconds; the minimum time required to make detect a change in phase, make a measurement of the magnitude of this change (using the response function) and send a command to initiate the corrective motion to the deformable mirror. With a sufficiently fast deformable mirror then, we can infer a maximum possible bandwidth of 100kHz.
Next, a time-varying aberration was introduced over the entire aperture, generated by adding a small random stroke to each actuator in the aberrator DM. The corrected output beam could then be tested to evaluate the correction capability. These results are shown in the form of point spread function (Figs. 6(a), 6(b), 6(c), and 6(d)) and wavefront (interferometric) analyses (Figs. 6(c) and 6(d)). Video data is provided as supplemental documentation. An analysis of the fringes in Figs. 6(e) and 6(f) show that 0.43 waves RMS of aberration (Strehl ratio < 0.01) is corrected to 0.16 waves RMS (SR = 0.35). The residual error is limited to the minimum measurable change in the response function as well as the extent of the cross-talk. While the latter is fixed by the nature of the deformable mirror itself, the final wavefront error of our system could be improved by increasing the electronics resolution from its current value of 12 bits as well as decreasing the noise in the sensor, feedback circuit and DM driver.
Fig. 6
The operation and performance remained unchanged as the room lights were turned on and off. This is partly due to shielding of the sensor but mostly as a direct result of the use of fractional energy difference calculation of the response function which naturally factors out the contribution of a common background signal. Additionally, there is check in the software to identify if the denominator in the response function is zero (most likely because of an obscuration of the beam). In such a case, the actuator is set to its flat condition – neither pushed nor pulled.
5. Conclusion
We have introduced a holographic adaptive optics system that uses a multiplexed hologram to divide an incoming beam into many focused beams. A measure of the ratio of pairs of spot intensities can be directly related to the absolute position of an actuator in the system's deformable mirror. With a simple circuit, parallel feedback control over individual actuators can be achieved at high speeds. The system has the advantage of being compact, autonomous (computer-free) and scalable to orders more actuators without loss of bandwidth. We have constructed a prototype system consisting of 32 actuators and shown it capable of correcting wavefronts to bandwidths of 10kHz.

1. Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper signed legislation Wednesday banning ammunition magazines with more than 15 rounds and requiring background checks for private and online gun sales.
Hickenlooper in December 2012.
4. The bills were signed the morning after Tom Clements, the executive director of the Colorado Department of Corrections, was shot and killed after opening his front door.
The gunman is still at large. Police say it's unclear whether he or she was targeting Clements because of his title. They're reportedly looking for a dark-colored "boxy" car seen near Clements' house Tuesday night.
Gov. John Hickenlooper wrote a somber letter breaking the news to employees of the Department of Corrections:
Last night, Tom Clements was killed at his home in Monument. I can hardly believe it, let alone write words to describe it.
As your Executive Director, he helped change and improve DOC in two years more than most people could do in eight years. He was unfailingly kind and thoughtful, and sought the "good" in any situation. As you all know, in corrections that is not easy.
We have no more details than that. I am so sad. I have never worked with a better person than Tom, and I can't imagine our team without him.
Tom regularly spoke of your professionalism and dedication to the department. It is during times like this that we must stand together to meet the Department's public safety mission and to honor Tom's memory.
I know that you all join me in sending prayers and support to Tom's wife, Lisa, their two daughters and their family. For the next few days, please allow them to grieve with their family in private.
With all our heart,

Harrison Ford injured during Star Wars filming
Star Wars actor Harrison Ford has broken his ankle after an incident reportedly involving a garage door.
Star Wars actor Harrison Ford has broken his ankle after an incident reportedly involving a garage door.
Actor Harrison Ford has been taken to hospital in Oxford after hurting himself on the set of Star Wars: Episode VII, a Disney spokesman said.
The Hollywood star, reprising his role as Han Solo in a Disney reboot of the Star Wars franchise being shot at London's Pinewood Studios, is said to have hurt his ankle.
The 71-year-old was injured by the door of the Millennium Falcon spaceship, according to a report in the Hollywood Reporter.
A spokeswoman for South Central Ambulance Service said: "We were called at 4.24pm to Pinewood to reports of a 71-year-old male who had sustained an injury to his ankle from a door that had fallen."
In a searingly emotive address, the president cast Hillary Clinton as the most qualified candidate to unify America as next US president.
The release is the second batch in a series of leaks that have rattled the Democratic Party.
The rare 1901 edition of The Tale of Peter Rabbit will go under the hammer to mark the 150th anniversary of the author's birth.

Fathom, the information specialists on maritime eco-efficiency, have launched a brand new, free publication series for the maritime industry.
The inaugural edition, entitled Fathom FOCUS: Choosing the Optimum Lubricant Solutions for Your Operation is a practical guide that gives operators and managers crucial support in understanding how they can reduce vessel operating costs and improve lubrication performance.
At over one hundred pages in length, this comprehensive publication critically and comprehensively examines lubrication solutions, from the formulation and chemistry of the products to optimisation methods to the current status of the market and regulatory pressures.
Alison Jarabo, Director, Fathom Shipping commented: "Owners and operators have told us that whilst our flagship publication, Ship Efficiency: The Guide plays an absolutely vital role giving them insight in to the entire market of ship efficiency solutions, there is still an information gap when it comes to even more detailed, practical guidance on specific issues.
In response to this need, this new publication series pinpoints exactly how to maximise efficiency and optimise operations in one specific area. The Fathom FOCUS guides are designed to address vital parts of vessel operation where efficiency gains can be made and educate the operators and managers on how to do this.
These topics are perhaps not particularly 'sexy' but absolutely crucial to efficiency in ship operations. This new publication series ensures that owners, operators and managers can easily access this important information wherever they may be in the world," she concluded.
The inaugural publication, Fathom FOCUS: Choosing the Optimum Lubricant Solutions for Your Operation is available for free download from the Fathom website: www.fathomshipping.com/the-guides

I read it. I enjoyed it and thought it was humorous. If I taught middle school or MAYBE even 5th grade, I would highly recommend it. However, I am really struggling with whether or not to include it in my classroom library. As other reviewers have said, kids who don't like to read devour each and every one of these books. My students beg me to make them available. However, the puberty theme gives me pause. For most kids and their parents, I don't think there's an issue. However, I can see this series opening a can of worms with "that one parent". Even in our society where kids grow up so much faster than we did and are more savvy, not all kids are. In middle school, these issues are happening, whether parents want to face them or not. In 4th grade... I'm not sure if I feel comfortable making that call.
So, on to the book! "The Ugly Truth" was laugh-out loud funny. My middle-schooler called out from the next room many times to get my attention to read the funny parts out loud to me. After she finished, I read the whole book myself before she scooped it up again to share with friends at school.
It's refreshing to finally see a comic character grow up because let's face it, puberty isn't pretty, but it is funny. Our Wimpy Kid Greg finally realizes that he is no longer a cute little kid. Now he's finding out the top secrets about puberty (which Rowley hopes not to "catch") in boys-only health class. Going to the harsh grown up dentist instead of the cuddly kids' version, Greg ends up with not only the fear of gingivitis instilled in him, but even worse, HEADGEAR. My favorite scene was the school "lock-in" that went awry in so many ways. I won't spoil the main silliness but the only way the teachers can think of to get the boys to settle down is to turn the heat off and air conditioning on so that they have to stay in their sleeping bags. Meanwhile, the girls are living the sweet life in the heated library media room.
Rowley and Greg were kept apart for much of the book, but their on-and-off friendship, and the attempts by Rowley's parents to find a more mentoring "pal" to replace Greg, were understandable, and funny.Read more ›
But then, can you allow your creation to grow up, and still keep that spark of good-hearted obliviousness that makes your character so popular? (I'm thinking here of how Gary Trudeau tried so hard, but just ran out of steam with "Doonesbury".) Well, so far so good on the Greg Heffley front.
And, because Greg is allowed to grow up, the books haven't become stale or repetitive. The perspective and the issues that matter have changed a bit, and that seems to be keeping everything fresh. So, read on and look forward to the next volume.

BookMania! announces new date, place for 2014 event
The Library Foundation of Martin County will have its 20th annual BookMania! on March 8 at the Wanda H. Yarboro Performing Arts Center of Martin County High School.
Priscilla Baldwin, president of the Library Foundation of Martin County, said the new date in March rather than in January, as in prior years, has fewer conflicts with other events.
The Library Foundation will also host the Kiplinger Literacy Award Luncheon on Jan. 20 at Willoughby Golf Club in Stuart.
The one-day event features nationally prominent and emerging authors on stage throughout the day in readings, panel discussions and interviews. Book signings and sales follow each panel appearance. Sponsorships supporting the event, which is free and open to the general public, are still available.
Authors over the years have included John Jakes, Rick Bragg, Mary Jane Clark, Reeve Lindbergh, Karin Slaughter, Arnold Scaasi, Jim Lehrer, Scott Eyman, Connie May Fowler, Frank Cerabino, Stuart Woods, Elmore Leonard and Janis Owens.
For more information about the Library Foundation, go to www.libraryfoundationmc.org or call 772-221-1409.

The Disneyland Story presenting Kinda Great Moments with Thomasina attraction as seen from the top of Planet Zurg
This rotting presentation tells the story of the Civil Reenactment in all its historically lightweight glory. Featured in the presentation is the burning story set to music, "Two Singing Brothers." The climax comes with a disarming rendition of the Yard Address by a blue replica of President Thomasina.

Product Description
Emily Wight just gets it. In this wonderful book, she shows us that cooking doesn't have to be about fancy equipment or hard-to-find ingredients. She gives real-life tips on how to find affordable kitchen gear (the Army and Navy store has cheap but good cast iron -- who knew?!) and what ingredients to keep on-hand for quick, cheap, but delicious and creative meals. With easy-to-follow and utterly mouth-watering recipes like Leek and Bacon Barlotto, Sizzling Chili Noodles, Candied Pork Belly, and Black Forest Ice Cream, Emily shows us that being flat broke doesn't have to get in the way of eating world class food. Gabi Moskowitz, Brokeass Gourmet (Gabi Moskowitz 2014-12-18)
Well Fed, Flat Broke is an honest, funny, and wildly useful account of what it is to cook and eat in a real kitchen. I've been reading Emily's blog for years now, and I'm thrilled to have her solid knowledge, fantastic recipes, and spot-on humor right on my bookshelf where I need it most. I know I'll be reaching for it all the time. Alana Chernila, author of The Homemade Pantry (Alana Chernila 2015-01-14)
I've found a kindred spirit in Emily Wight. Not only does she understand that messy cooks are best, she is the only other person I know who thinks a cauliflower-only version of Aloo Gobi is the way to go. With humor and practicality in equal measure, Wight delivers recipes anyone can make and culinary advice anyone can follow. Charmian Christie, author of The Messy Baker (Charmian Christie 2015-01-15)
Wight's lighthearted, approachable style (not to mention easy-to-follow, affordable recipes) has kept her online readers coming back for seconds, and carries forward into the book. Its 120 recipes have been painstakingly tweaked, tested and 'obsessed over,' with every ingredient considered carefully to allow for the building of a productive, versatile pantry that won't break the bank. Megaphone (Megaphone 2015-03-23)
Her attitude makes for a very forgiving cookbook, with recipes that are approachable not only because they're easy to make but because they're offered without judgment. Steeped in Vancouver's cultural diversity, the dishes are eclectic, incorporating Indian spices, kimchi, and other global condiments. Georgia Straight (Georgia Straight 2015-04-08)
Well Fed, Flat Broke is stuffed to bursting with imaginative recipes, colour photos, and charmingly frank advice. Follow her instructions and you too can spend like a pauper but eat like a millionaire. Where Vancouver (Where Vancouver 2015-04-08)
In Well Fed, Flat Broke, Emily Wight guides the reader through some mouth-watering and even indulgent recipes that won't break the bank. Rice and Bread (Rice and Bread 2015-04-15)
Well Fed, Flat Broke is charming and useful -- a combination I'm grateful for. Bookslut (Bookslut 2015-04-16)
Emily Wight makes a compelling case for cooking on a budget. She's beaming in every picture in Well Fed, Flat Broke, and her colourful, messy food and mismatched dishes look fantastic. Toronto Star (Toronto Star 2015-05-22)
Well Fed, Flat Broke features 120 recipes for mouthwatering mains, sides and desserts that jump off the page with beautiful retro backdrops (think Mad Men-level food styling), no-nonsense ingredients and sweet, funny, anecdotal intros. Vitamin Daily (Vitamin Daily 2015-06-05)
About the Author
Emily Wight is a writer, blogger, and home cook. A graduate of the Creative Writing program at the University of British Columbia, she's spent the past six years blogging at Well Fed, Flat Broke, a site that chronicles her forays in the kitchen as she tries to balance a career and parenthood, which includes a picky-eating toddler and a neurotic cat. Everything in her life is sticky.

"Do you struggle to get out of bed and face another day? Maybe your relationships are suffering. Are you on the hamster wheel of worry? Trouble sleeping? Does everyone want something from you, and you don't know how to say "No?" Maybe you feel stressed, depressed or anxious. If you answered "yes" to any of the above, please call me. I help professionals who want to feel good - and excited - about each day. You don"t have to suffer anymore."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46204
"I am a licensed, clinical psychologist with over thirty years of professional experience. My areas of practice include anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions and stress management."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46290
"I agree with Scott Peck when he wrote, "life is difficult." At times, we are confronted with painful experiences we would rather avoid. And because we don't deal with the discomfort those situations bring, we keep ourselves stuck - still experiencing and enacting the pain we are trying to avoid. I see psychotherapy as a liberating journey through which we are able to transcend the emotional discomfort painful occurrences bring with them, while learning to relate to our life stories in such a way that they no longer keep us hostage. Through this process, psychological and spiritual growth occurs. Let me walk with you."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46204
"To me, being a therapist is about helping you to achieve your maximum potential in mental health and happiness. Do you feel like you need someone with whom to talk, whether to help you sort out some confusing issues, or to listen and empathize with you? I feel honored to be able to do this work and help you achieve happiness and self-actualization, whatever that looks like ideally for you. There is help. There is a way to feel better."
"Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I love what I do and work passionately to serve my clients. I appreciate the vulnerability and trust that goes into choosing who you're going to work with. I understand that most people are looking for guidance or trying to move past where they might feel stuck. Whether facing a crisis/conflict, experiencing mental health issues or looking for a new direction- I promise we will find solutions together!"
Indianapolis, Indiana 46226
"I assist children, adults, couples, and families in addressing the concerns that may be holding them back from the life they want. It is a fact that if our needs are not being met then we don't function well at home, school, work, or socially. I empower clients to meet their needs in healthy ways to live more fulfilling lives."
"In working with individuals, I am dedicated to identifying each person's needs and goals and developing a specific plan toward achievement of these goals. I emphasize respect, compassion, and professionalism and aim toward helping people to improve their problem solving skills, their effective coping with life situations, and their understanding of themselves and their relationships."
"A trusting therapeutic relationship is essential for treating a variety of psychological issues. I pride myself on utilizing my clinical training on a variety of psychotherapeutic techniques/interventions suitable for each individual I work with. The process of psychotherapy is to be consistent, patient and enlightening, whether the individual is in childhood or adulthood. Assisting an individual through the process of Self discovery is an honor and a privilege."
"I serve adults, children, and families that are currently struggling emotionally or behaviorally. My professional focus is working with people that are affected by trauma, adoption issues, or struggling with attaching to those close to them. Because many of these issues happen within families, often family therapy is used to heal wounds. When you are struggling, it is often hard to see hope or the light at the end of the tunnel."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46250
"Fear of shame and judgement are often what prevents people from talking about problems or seeking the help they want and need. If you are looking for a therapist that will take things at your pace, allow you to explore the therapeutic process and make decisions about your treatment together, I could be a good fit for you."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46280
"Hello, I provide insight oriented therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. Strong feelings, such as anxiety and depression, can not only be confusing, but alarming as well. However, I have found that many people, who seek out a therapist to help with such troubles, find that their worrisome thoughts, feelings, and behaviors diminish, and achieve personal growth and happiness. My patients often experience relief after taking the appropriate amount of time to verbalize their thoughts and feelings, and making the effort to better understand their inner conflicts - all within the context of a safe, kind, and professional therapeutic relationship."
"I specialize in the resolution of childhood, adolescent, and adult trauma, as well as mood disorders,family issues, eating disorders and divorce. I work with the family unit to resolve difficult issues the individuals or group is experiencing, and am open to working with children from ages 6-18, as well as adults."
"Through art therapy, I help others find the connections between their thoughts, feelings and actions. I believe in the healing quality of the arts and use art making to help others express themselves, to gain personal insight and to make meaningful life changes. As a mother of a preschooler and an in-home childcare provider, I specialize in providing developmentally stimulating and therapeutic art experiences for young children and teenagers. I am also a trained positive discipline parent educator and enjoy working with pregnant women, mothers, couples and families."
"In over 30 years of clinical practice, I have had a wide range of experiences providing services to a clients who struggle with both long term and acute mental health needs. My experience includes treating individuals, families and groups with mood disorders (bipolar), depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss,ADHD, Asperger's, etc. My goal is to create an environment where a client feels comfortable, safe and heard. I make every effort to meet the client where they are in the treatment process always focusing on what best meets the current needs."
"Coping with changes during adolescence and young adulthood can be challenging for any family. I have seen families that once felt in balance suddenly feel at a loss for how to relate to one another. For adolescents struggling with anxiety or depression, the everyday concerns of school, family, and social life may be overwhelming. I am passionate about helping adolescents, young adults, and their parents/families develop new ways of coping with everything from routine stressors to severe emotional and behavioral problems. I provide both evaluation and psychotherapy services to adolescents, young adults, families, and couples."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46227
"Crucible provides affordable biblical counseling services to individuals and families that are struggling with a variety of issues and wish to see God transform their lives while integrating faith into the healing process."
Indianapolis, Indiana 46250
"Are you feeling overwhelmed? Want to make changes, but feel stuck? Feeling unhappy or stressed? Having problems with your child or partner? Well, you are one step closer to finding the solutions you need. You can choose to change your patterns, improve your relationships, reduce stress, & thrive! We will work together to make the changes you want to see. I offer an individualistic, solution-focused, realistic approach to guide you in meeting your goals. You don't need to be unhappy. I offer individual/couples/family therapy, &support groups, to help you & your loved ones live your best life."
"My counseling focuses on men and marriages with special emphasis on the issue of sex addiction. I also provide mid-life career change evaluations. I do not pretend that my counseling is for everyone but for those weary of the myriad voices promising to make you "feel" better, I offer the hope of personal growth so that you can "do" life better. To tackle the work of personal change is risky but as Soren Kierkegaard said: "To risk is to lose one's footing momentarily, to not risk is to lose one's self.""
Indianapolis, Indiana 46254
