What are flower essences?
Flower essences are herbal infusions or decoctions, made from the flowering part of the plant, which uniquely address emotional and mental aspects of wellness. The first 38 flower remedies were formulated by a British physician, Dr. Edward Bach, in the 1930's, although new remedies from other plant species are now available.
Positive qualities: Radiant expression of one's unique creativity and inspiration; distinctive individuality as a source of luminosity and radiance for others; inspired acting and speaking in the world.
Patterns of imbalance: Hesitation to express one's creativity and individuality; inability to take social or creative risks; mid-life crisis calling for re-constellation of soul forces and life expression.
How do I use flower essences ?
They are typically taken orally from a dropper bottle; the standard dosage is four drops four times daily. You can take the drops directly from stock bottles available in stores; mix them in a glass of water; or make a dosage bottle by mixing several drops with water and brandy (typically 1/4 ounce) in a one ounce dropper bottle. When mixing in a dosage bottle or glass of water, take two drops from each essence selected. There are many others ways of using them, such as in misting sprayers, in a cream base, or in baths.
Please Read Item Label and Packaging for Recent Product Information.
Add 2 drops to water and take 4 times daily.

Police: Man attacked neighbor with samurai sword
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A Colorado Springs man was arrested after police said he attacked his neighbor with a samurai sword on Tuesday morning.
The suspect, 22-year-old Sean Knapp, is accused of confronting a neighbor at the Westwind Apartments with the sword, and swinging it at the victim's face. The victim tried to fight back and caught the sword with bare hands. Both the victim and the suspect were bleeding extensively, police said.
The victim went through surgery and police said on Wednesday that he is doing well.
Knapp was released from the hospital on Wednesday afternoon and booked into the Criminal Justice Center. Charges filed against him and a booking photo were not available as of Wednesday evening. Information about the circumstances surrounding the attack have not been released.
Ken Bretag, the manager of Prince of Blades, a sword and knife store in Colorado Springs, told KRDO NewsChannel 13 that a samurai sword could easily be a deadly weapon.
"It could do major damage," Bretag said. "They're primarily very sharp. They could cut through bone easily."
Bretag said buying a samurai sword is easy.
"You just walk in and buy one. The only regulation we have is you have to be over 18," he said.
The availability of swords to consumers did not concern Bretag, who said he can make a judgement call when selling blades.
"If they're drunk? Nope, sorry, go home," Bretag said.

Saying it will protect students from "maniacal, homicidal" killers, a House panel voted Wednesday to let schools designate one employee at each site have access to have a gun.
HB 2412 permits a school district to designate a single individual in each building who could bring a weapon to school.
Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, said the legislation would not permit any teacher or other person to actually carry a gun all day. Instead, the weapon would have to be locked up, with the designated person having a key, someone who had gone through 24 hours of training and a background check.
Attorney General Tom Horne told members of the House Appropriations Committee he came up with the idea in the wake of the 2012 shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School that claimed 26 lives.
Horne said he rejected calls by some to allow all teachers to arm themselves.
He said that, as a former board member in the Paradise Valley Unified School District there would be situations all the time where teachers lost keys. That created its own problems with having to re-key the building.
"If somebody lost a gun, that would be pretty bad," he said.
"But on the other hand, doing nothing also is dangerous," Horne said. "If some maniac gets into a school and there's no one there with a gun, he can do a lot of damage."
He said that the principal at Sandy Hook tried to stop the killer with her bare hands.
"He killed her," Horne said. "If she had had a gun, it might have been a different story."
Horne said having a single trained person in each school -- and leaving the decision to local school boards – seemed to be a satisfactory compromise.
The measure drew questions from Rep. Stefanie Mach, D-Tucson, ranging from the cost of liability insurance to the possibility that a student could take the key from a teacher and gain access to the weapon. Mach said she believes in "an unassailable truth that more weapons equal more violence."
But proponents, all Republicans, pushed the measure through the committee, setting the stage for a vote by the full House.
At the heart of the question is what, if anything, Arizona lawmakers should do to keep students safer.
Horne said that if money were no object, the state would put a "school resource officer" in every school, a police officer stationed there not only to protect students but also help out with other safety issues. Kavanagh said the $300 million price tag on that makes it a political non-starter.
Horne said that leaves it to schools to figure out how best to handle the situation.
The measure drew fire from the Arizona School Boards Association, but lobbyist Janice Palmer said the group would be willing to go along with a program if it were limited to rural schools where police response might be delayed.
Kavanagh scoffed at that suggestion.
"When a wild gunman is chasing your kids, how many minutes do you allow him to have free access to the child?" he asked. Horne echoed the theme, saying that having a police station "even a block away" is no guarantee of a prompt response.
Kavanagh said the proposal is far from unique.
He said Hawaii, New Hampshire and Utah all allow anyone with a permit to carry a concealed weapon to bring it on to school grounds, and he said several other states, including Louisiana and Texas permit teachers, with permission of school officials, to bring their own guns.
"This is not some groundbreaking thing that Arizona is doing," Kavanagh said. He said a comparison with other states shows "Arizona is well behind the curve in protecting children in situations where maniacal, homicidal armed and dangerous people walk into schools and shoot the schools up.''
Rep. Paul Boyer, R-Phoenix, agreed that guns can keep students safer. He said while there are well publicized reports of mass shootings, the public never hears about "potential mass shootings that were prevented by a law-abiding citizen who happened to have a gun and happened to be nearby."

In the interim, if you have a specific instance of this scenario, you should ask the upstream of the GPL project to add a linking exception for OpenSSL, something like:

MILWAUKEE - The Bucks Thursday signed second-round draft pick Jon Leuer to a contract. Leuer, a 6-foor-10, 228-pound forward out of the University of Wisconsin, was drafted 40th overall by the Bucks in the 2011 NBA Draft. Due to the uncertainty of the NBA lockout, Leuer signed with Skyliners Frankfurt of the German Bundesliga, where he averaged 14.8 points, 7.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 10 games. He also participated in three EuroCup games, averaging 12 points and 4.3 rebounds. In four seasons at Wisconsin, Leuer finished with 11.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.1 assists and was a 48.2 percent shooter. During his senior year, he established career highs with 18.3 points and 7.2 rebounds a game and earned First Team All-Big Ten honors as Wisconsin went 25-9 and advanced to the Sweet 16. With Leuer's signing, the Bucks now have the maximum 15 players under contract, though they are still waiting for visa issues to be settled before Luc Richard Mbah a Moute can begin participating in camp.

When Jagat (Jack) Uppal was just 26, he had already worked for half his life, delivering firewood and putting in years of hard toil at B.C. sawmills to provide for his widowed mother and then his young family.
Now he wanted a change. He applied for a job with B.C. Electric and was hired as the private utility's first Sikh bus driver. But Mr. Uppal found himself assigned to few shifts, unable to secure enough hours for a steady income. So he quit. The company was stung. The manager of transit operations immediately fired off a letter to the young man, noting how rarely he wrote to someone departing after such short service. "I want to make an exception in your case," he said, reminding Mr. Uppal the company had invested "several hundred dollars" training him. "I don't like to think that this was entirely wasted." The patronizing tone, implying that, as a Sikh, he should have been grateful for his hiring, spoke volumes. Mr. Uppal pointedly kept the letter, often showing it to others as a reminder of the long, difficult road immigrant Sikhs had to travel to be treated with the same respect as other Canadians.
It was something Mr. Uppal fought for throughout his remarkable life, as he journeyed through the classic immigrant experience, progressing from ostracized outsider to successful entrepreneur, with a large house on Vancouver's affluent West Side. He became an acclaimed pioneer and patriarch of the West Coast's large Sikh community, with roots that stretched as far back as the infamous Komagata Maru incident in 1914, when racist B.C. authorities refused to let a ship carrying 376 passengers, who were mostly Sikh, dock at the port of Vancouver. Mr. Uppal's father, Dalip Singh, was on the local Shore Committee, helping to smuggle food and water out to the beleaguered ship, which was stranded in the harbour for two months before it was forced to return to India.
Mr. Singh imbued his son with his strength of conviction early on, balancing him on his knee while reciting scriptures, poetry and tales of the struggle for Indian independence. Young Jagat was one of the first Sikhs to attend public school in Vancouver. In the mid-1940s, barely out of his teens, he journeyed to Ottawa as part of a Sikh delegation demanding the right to vote. His proficiency in English was invaluable in pressing their case. Indian settlers were finally granted voting rights in 1947.
After that, Mr. Uppal took on a new role, assisting thousands of Sikh newcomers over the years to get a foothold in British Columbia. As he became more prominent in the sawmill industry, he employed them wherever he could, tried to get them help when they got into trouble and gave them advice. "People used to just knock on his door and walk in, even late at night, like it was the postal service, or something," says son-in-law Harjinder Bains.
Former federal Liberal cabinet minister Herb Dhaliwal remembers long lines outside Mr. Uppal's door at tax time. "Jack would do everybody's taxes," Mr. Dhaliwal says. "He was a one-man social agency, before there were social workers." Mr. Dhaliwal himself was among those who got a helping hand. Mr. Uppal registered him for Grade 1, changing his name on the form from Harbance to Herb. He felt that would make it easier for the freshly landed youngster to fit in.
And Mr. Uppal did not shy away from making waves when he felt it was necessary. In the early 1960s, a Sikh family ran up against residents determined to stop them from moving into their neighbourhood. Mr. Uppal took the issue to the newspapers and the neighbours backed down. "People thought we were just a bunch of brown guys, and that's the way it was," says Wally Oppal, former B.C. Supreme Court judge and later B.C. attorney-general. "But Jack was always willing to stick his neck out for what he thought was right. He paved the way for us."Report Typo/Error

Last-minute plan: Ask Roulette Second-Anniversary Show
Looking for something free to do tonight? Indulge your curiosity at a special birthday edition of Ask Roulette
Thu Jan 16 2014
Photograph: Stephen Nessen/Ask Roulette
What have you always wanted to know about someone you don't know? At Ask Roulette, audience members answer questions from strangers before posing queries of their own. The conversation series and podcast celebrates its second birthday tonight at 7pm at Housing Works Bookstore Cafe. Since its a big one, host (and WNYC producer) Jody Avirgan has recruited some special guests to help celebrate, including Jad Abumrad (Radiolab), Roger Bennett (Grantland and Men in Blazers), Shani O. Hilton (Buzzfeed) and "house band" Eli Bolin (Sesame Street). For a taste of what to expect, here are Avirgan's favorite questions from 2013 (you can listen to more on the most recent podcast, available below or through Soundcloud and iTunes).
"Are your best days ahead of you or behind you?"
This is just a brilliant question—it's pointed, but also broad enough that it could lead to all sorts of answers, depending on who gets it. It was asked by a woman named April
of a stranger named Asthmus, and his answer was just perfect: "It's funny you ask. My best days are right around the corner." Love it.
"You discover that, through a mix-up at the hospital, your perfectly healthy
one-year-old is not actually yours. Do you return your child in exchange for the real one?"
This falls into the old standby category of "Would you…?," but I don't think you can read too much into someone's answer. I truly don't know what the most ethically responsible or less heartbreaking thing to do would be. Dave Weigel of Slate did, though; without hesitation he said he'd return the kid.
"Who was your worst neighbor ever?"
Everyone has a good neighbor story. This got asked twice this year, once of [writer] Caissie St. Onge and once of [comedian] Kevin Allison, and both times led to stories I'll never forget. Caissie lives in the suburbs and told a story about the over-eager-but-creepy man who she shares a yard with. Kevin told a story about a straight-up creepy old lady in his first NYC apartment building (the upshot was that "it was the opposite of the plot of Psycho").
"What's the weirdest dream you've ever had?"
We get a number of questions about dreams, and they always lead to great moments. It's sort of a nice blank canvas of a question, since it lets the person answering decide whether they want to talk about something weird, tell a story or get personal; one of the few times I've cried at Ask Roulette is when someone told a story about dreams she'd been having about her dead mother. This year, comedian Chris Gethard told a story about a recurring dream he had as a child where his mom would turn into the Wicked Witch of the West. Out of pure coincidence, the person who asked him that question had had the same exact dream when she was a child.
"What percentage of the historical population of blue whales is alive today?"
We've gotten all types of questions at Ask Roulette—silly, personal, weird, offensive—but this, from our D.C. show, was the very first time a plain old fact-based question had been asked. It totally caught me off guard, and actually led to a hilarious exchange. The answer is 1 percent, by the way.
"What's the most valuable thing you've wrecked?"
I've asked this a few times at Ask Roulette (sometimes I throw in a few choice questions), and it has led to stories of totaled cars, broken relationships and one unlucky couch.

Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) chief Avtar Singh Makkar has advised Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Lok Sabha member from Sangrur, Bhagwant Mann, to behave like a responsible MP and not like a comedian.
Makkar gave this piece of advise while taking exception to Mann's having indulged in distortion of the line, 'Raj Karega Khalsa, Aaki Rahey Na Koe' (The pure ones shall prevail) .The distorted version by Mann has been highlighted on some social media sites.
Referring to the distortion, Makkar said, "Mann should behave like an elected representative of the people and not like a comedian. It is rather unfortunate for Punjab and for us that we have sent such a person to Parliament, who is not at all serious".
Claiming that Mann's distortion of the line had hurt Sikh sentiments, the SGPC chief demanded a public apology from the comedian-turned-politician.

Hi All,
Advice please for a small dink I have on my rear wing, it's really small but it's bugging me!
I've read that a mobile PDR would be the best option. Has anyone had a minor dent repaired in this way?
I got quoted £75 to repair this small dink, anyone know whether this price is about par for the course?

Jonathan Zimmerman, a professor of history and education at New York University, received his BA from Columbia in 1983. He is the author of "Small Wonder: The Little Red Schoolhouse in History and Memory" (Yale University Press).
...You can find [sexist comments directed toward Barnard College] on Columbia's student blogs, which have lit up with vitriol since the March 3 announcement that President Obama will speak at Barnard's commencement ceremonies in May. Part of the anger was directed at Mr. Obama, who graduated from Columbia but has never given an address there. But the major target was Barnard itself. Its students are promiscuous gold-diggers, posters wrote, stealing Columbia men from – yes – Columbia women....
Columbia was the last elite American college to admit female undergraduates. Women could attend the graduate schools as well as Barnard, founded in 1889 and named, ironically, after a Columbia president who had fought to admit undergraduate women on the same basis as men.
From the very beginning, Barnard attracted superb students. Indeed, professors found they were often more engaged in their academic endeavors than their counterparts across the street. "The Barnard students are interested in the subject, intelligent, and take hold of it in a satisfactory way," wrote prominent anthropologist Franz Boas, who taught at both institutions in the early 1900s, "while the quality of the Columbia students is on the whole not as good as I should like to see it."...
...Forty years after the feminist revolution, could it really be true that young women are defining their lives and selves in terms of relationships with men? And on Morningside Heights, no less, where the likes of Margaret Mead and Mirra Komarovsky urged women to look for more?...
But there is something wrong if this quest starts to trump all of the others. Despite their academic achievements – or, in some cases, because of them – too many bright and talented young women still think they need male companions to make them whole. And they don't....

NortonLive symantec Charged credit card without permission Nationwide
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I noticed a charge to my bank account for 19.99. I have not had norton on any device for over two years. After farther investigation I found they had taken it every month for the last 8 months. When I called them to ask to be removed from there list I was on hold for an hour, transfer three times, everytime starting over on the situation and given a new case number, to finally get to a man that could barley speak english.
I was informed that when I had remote assistance a few years back I subscribed to a monthly service to be able to have them work on a computer remotly whenever I needed them. Being they couldn't fix the problem in the first place I removed there product and downloaded a new antivirus software that I love. I had no idea I subscribed to anything.
I was informed tonight that I can not get any of my money back, to have the pending charge stopped I need to call my bank and I will have to wait "5 or 7 or 10" days in his words to receive an e-mail stating that they took me off there list.
Not only did they steal a couple hundred dollars out of my account without my permission, they stole almost two hours from me to unsubscribe from a service I did not want or know I was receiving, from a website that told me I had nothing to unsubscribe from, and to be told I will hopefully get an e-mail that says I am no longer a member.

Zillow's Rumored Acquisition Of Truila Sends Shares Zooming - Analyst Blog
Shares of Zillow (Z) and Trulia (TRLA) soared 15.25% and 32.43%, respectively, on Thursday's trade after the news of Zillow taking over Trulia got out. According to Bloomberg, Zillow will shell out as much as $2 billion for the acquisition.
If the deal goes through, Zillow, the number one online real estate information provider in the U.S., will not only strengthen its position but also dwarf competitors such as Move Inc. (MOVE). Moreover, Zillow will have one fewer company to compete with.
The acquisition is also a strategic fit as both the companies offer mobile and web solutions that enable users to find important information about homes. It is worth noting that Zillow and Trulia drove 89% of the total traffic to the 15 most-visited real estate sites in June with unique visitors in excess of 85 million, per comScore.
Moreover, with Trulia in its portfolio Zillow's scale of business will increase manifold with new listings and expanded reach that will offer significant long-term benefits. Nonetheless, both the companies are in the high investment phase which makes profitability an issue. However, in view of Trulia's more than 100% year-over-year revenue increase in the past two quarters, Zillow's bid makes sense.
Another factor that might have prompted Zillow to go for the acquisition is improving home sales. Per National Association of Realtors, U.S. existing home sales jumped in June to an eight-month high.
On a separate note, we believe that the strong traffic growth, frequent product launches and a growing Premier Agent business are the positives for Zillow, going forward.
Moreover, product launches, which include the newly-designed Zillow Real Estate App for Apple's (AAPL) iPhone and iPad and the Zillow Digs app for iPhone are positives. Continuing investments in marketing activities will also boost traffic going forward.
However, these investments will continue to hurt profitability at both companies in the near term. Moreover, Zillow has only $447.0 million in cash & cash equivalents and investments (both short and long term) and it needs to be seen how much cash it parts with for the acquisition.
Currently, Zillow has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).

Clowns caught up in Westwood auto accident
WESTWOOD — A woman who had just performed a clown show at an elementary school crashed a Toyota sedan into a utility pole on Berkeley Avenue just before noon Monday, police and a witness said.
Authorities do not know what caused the crash, Westwood police Sgt. Matthew McClutchy said. But Jack "Poppi T Clown" Erbstein of Mahwah, who witnessed the accident, said the driver was reaching for a GPS unit that fell off the windshield when she veered off the road and hit the pole.
The witness and the driver are part of Call Us Clowns, a not-for-profit organization that puts on clown shows at schools and hospitals, he said.
Erbstein said that there were about 10 clowns at the day camp at Berkeley Avenue Elementary School. The crash occurred after the show, as the clowns drove away in their respective cars.
The incident is under investigation, McClutchy said.
The driver, whose name police declined to release, is a 68-year-old woman from Fair Lawn, according to Westwood police Chief Frank Regino.
It appears she was distracted as she was reaching for something and veered off the road, he said.
Some of her clown colleagues at the scene said they had persuaded her to go to the hospital as a precaution after she initially refused.
She was transported to Hackensack University Medical Center at Pascack Valley with minor injuries, Regino said. The car suffered substantial damage.

Bank cod with Spanish winter stew and almond-parsley pesto
Ryan Gallagher , Reds Wine Tavern
Published Wednesday, December 12, 2012 8:14AM EST
Last Updated Wednesday, December 12, 2012 8:48AM EST
A Spanish-style stew of peppers, onions, tomatoes, olives, garlic, and white beans and then cook the fish in the stew, top it with a parsley-almond pesto and then add a piece of toasted baguette with romesco for dipping in stew.
- 4 pc of cod (or whatever thick fish you prefer)
- 1 baguette (or any crusty bread)
Almond-Parsley Pesto
- ¼ c blanched almonds
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 bunch parsley (leaves only)
- ½ fresh red chili (seeded)
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ c olive oil
- Add all ingredients except olive oil to a food processor or blender and pulse until roughly chopped, then turn machine on and pour in olive oil in a steady stream until an almost smooth puree in formed.
Winter stew
- 1 pc fresh chorizo
- ½ fresh chili finely chopped
- 1/2 can piquillo pepper roughly chopped (or 1 small jar of roasted peppers)
- ½ leek (whites only, cut in half and washed, then cut into ½" thick half-moons)
- 1 small white onion (julienne)
- ½ c white beans
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- ½ can whole tomatoes with their juices
- ½ lb fingerling potatoes (blanched and cut into ½" coins)
- ¼ c olives (optional)
- ½ c white wine
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400F. Preheat a medium oven proof sauce pan (large enough to fit all 4 pieces of fish) then add the olive oil and chorizo and cook for 1 minute. Add the onions, garlic, chilies, and leeks and cook until onions begin to soften. Then add the potatoes, peppers, beans and olives (if using). Deglaze the pan with white wine and then add the tomatoes and lightly break them up. Immediately add the 4 pieces of fish, seasons with salt and pepper, and nestle into the liquids of the stew. Once the liquids have come to a light simmer put the pan into the oven and leave until the fish is cooked until the desired doneness (If you do not have an oven proof pan, turn temperature to low and put a lid on the pan).
To plate, put fish in the middle of a shallow bowl and pour chunky stew around the fish. Spoon the pesto over the fish and serve with a piece of fresh or toasted baguette.

When AIDS Project Rhode Island opened its doors in 1985, President Reagan had still not publicly uttered the word "AIDS." People with HIV could expect to live no longer than five years. Today, roughly 3000 Rhode Islanders are living with HIV; more than 500 of them rely on the Project for support and assistance. Christopher Butler recently left his post as APRI's executive director to take the reins at IN-Sight, a Warwick-based nonprofit agency that assists the blind and visually impaired. We talked prior to his departure.
What have you been able to accomplish in your five years at AIDS Project?
When I got here, the agency was pretty much bankrupt. It was pretty much a revolving door of staff people. We had lost a lot of credibility in the gay community. We went through a period where people thought the Project was too much about gay white men, and rather than expanding out to reach other communities, we just turned our back completely on the gay community. I think we've really significantly rebuilt [those] relationships. Opening the clinic at the Mega-Plex [a gay bathhouse in Providence], was a big thing for us to do. A lot of those guys in there are people that are outside the medical care system. They would never go to their physician and ask for an STD test or an HIV test. The only reason they're doing it is because we're in there and we're providing it, and we're being very appropriate about it, and giving prevention messages. I'm leaving with the agency having a $300,000 surplus, from a $150,000 deficit. We've really stabilized the staff; last year our staff turnover was 10 percent, down from 50 percent when I got here. The quality of our programs has increased significantly because we've brought in some really great staff people.
What has changed in the HIV community since you got here?
There's definitely a lot more competition. When I got here, it was pretty much us and AIDS Care Ocean State, and the hospitals. Now there's Agape, Family Service, Thundermist, there's all sorts of agencies. And with the dollars shrinking, there's just more and more competition for the dollars. The other significant change is the people who need us and the services we provide. When I was a buddy here in the late '80s and early '90s, my buddy assignments were six months. You met somebody, you held their hand on their deathbed, and then they were gone . . . . Now [clients] will be coming through here 30 years from now, unless somebody finds a cure. That's going to be the big challenge for the AIDS community — how do we shift from worrying about the short-term to really worrying about the long-term?
What do you hope your legacy will be here?
It's very important to me, to my friends who come here and get services here, to the memory of the people that we've lost, that this agency continue to be strong, to be vibrant. The board is going to look for someone who's going to continue to build the relationships in the gay community, continue to build the relationships with other agencies; who's going to be a really strong advocate for AIDS funding and AIDS prevention.

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now – Chinese Proverb
Hi, I'm Bealers.
I write on a range of subjects that are loosely related to productivity, self-improvement, stress reduction, or my favourite productivity tool, OneNote.
My aim is to show you ways of organising your life so that you can get the important things done whilst staying healthy.
This is all based on my hard-won experience gained running my website support company and turning my health around, both mental and physical, from very unwell, stressed out, overweight & unfit to lean, fit and healthy whilst managing to keep the stress & anxiety (mostly) at bay.
I don't pretend to be a personal development guru, I'm just sharing what works for me in the hope that it might help other people avoid making the same mistakes that I did.
Below I've collated some of my more popular posts under key sections for convenience, I also provide some background information at the end.
Feeling overwhelmed?
- Crisis mode productivity system (includes worksheet)
Mental health, positive thinking and mindfulness
All subjects very close to my heart.
You might want to consider learning how to:
- change your internal narrative
- think positively & be kind to yourself

Productivity systems
To keep sane I use my own A.D.D. friendly OneNote based system which incorporates parts of popular systems like GTD, ZTD, Pomodoro as well as aspects of many more obscure ones. Here I've detailed parts of this home-spun system:
- strong morning routine (this is quite long)
- week planning (essential reading)
- my OneNote workflows (video, 25 mins)
Doing means working
We all know this, but it doesn't make it any easier to swallow.
- Sometimes you simply have to turn up

Directed by Heitor Dhalia and written by Allison Burnett, Gone is a satisfying psychological thriller. The film has sadly been panned by critics, but there are layers at work in this picture that make it significantly more captivating than standard thriller fare. While it may well be tempting to dismiss this as another clichéd thriller, Gone has a lot more to offer than immediately meets the eye.
At its core, Gone is a film about victimization. The police officers in the movie are far from ideal protectors of victims, instead behaving in all sorts of inappropriate ways toward the protagonist. And the lead character is among many victims who've been failed by the system, leading to comparisons to the Pickton case in British Columbia and similar tragedies that could've been avoided had they been taken seriously.
Amanda Seyfried stars as Jill, a woman who lives with her sister Molly (Emily Wickersham). Molly is a recovering alcoholic and Jill was abducted and held captive just over a year ago. The police doubted her story, having not found any evidence and having cause to consider Jill mentally ill on account of her parents' having passed away years ago.
Jill is understandably paranoid and distrustful of police and men in general. When Molly goes missing, she believes that it is the same man who abducted her and goes to the police. The cops brazenly brush Jill off and send her home, but she decides to track who she believes the abductor is and takes matters into her own more than capable hands.
Dhalia's flick is structured like a standard thriller and that may prove too familiar for some viewers, but there are a lot of little pieces to this larger puzzle worth exploring. The narrative about victimization kicks into gear immediately after Jill first goes to the police. She encounters resistance, rudeness and almost an attitude of smugness as they essentially tell her to go home despite having a very good case in reporting her sister missing. "Adults have a right to disappear," says one cop who should face one hell of an inquest.
This may ring as unbelievable to some, but police officers have been known to turn the other way before and it comes off as plausible in this instance. The actions of the authorities victimize Jill again, compounding her psychological distress and shattering her reconstructed walls. To further the theme, Gone features snippets of a flippant conversation between two officers (one male, one female) about cheating and domestic violence.
Seyfried's character spends most of the picture discarded as a "crazy bitch" and treated like a lunatic, but her belief in what's real carries her through. Despite the efforts of many around her to invalidate her experiences, Jill knows the truth and is dedicated to finding out what happened to Molly. This puts her in some precarious positions (and some thriller clichés), but Seyfried gamely handles the bumps in the road.
Gone works because it knows the psychology element of the psychological thriller well. Burnett's script is lean and muscular; it never makes things too obvious but still plants enough seeds to cast doubt on the accounts of virtually all of the characters. Jill is presented as a somewhat unreliable character and that keeps the guessing game going nicely.
Gone is the sort of film that deserves a chance, in my humble opinion. It is a multifaceted thriller, but it is not a convoluted one. It has a satiating ending (and a hell of a line from Jill when she closes the door on the cops) and feels relevant in the face of police ineptitude and abuse from those in positions of authority. A movie about what it means to be a victim, Gone is worth checking out.
