A number of physiologic functions and parameters have circadian variations. Pulmonary flow and resistance are not an exception. Our study investigates the day-time variations of the major PFT variables by comparing the mean values of those in nine time intervals- from 8 am to 4 pm.
The study population consisted of all PFT's done in the study period (3/1997 to 5/2002, N=4835), which were divided into nine subgroups according to the time of the day the test was performed (TableTable.
Demographic characteristics of the studied population
PFT- pulmonary function test SD- standard deviation
The lowest median FEV1/FVC ratio was found in the 12 pm group (72.8%), the highest- in the 3 pm group (78.6%) [Figure]. Therefore, an absolute difference of 5.8% was detected between them(P<0.05). Similarly, the lowest FEV1 (1.81 l) was found in the 12 pm group and the highest- in the 3pm and 4 pm groups (2.12 and 2.17 l). Those differences were again highly statistically significant (p-values <0.001 and 0.035). The PEF (peak expiratory flow) variability was similar and also statistically significant. FVC showed a similar trend with the lowest value in the 12 pm group and the highest at 4pm. However, no statistically significant variation was detected in the pairwise comparison analysis.
During working hours, the airway resistance appears to be the most prominent at noon and reaches its minimum around 4-5 pm.
Along with its pure academic value, this clinically significant variation of the air flow characteristics may have some practical implications, e.g. timing the administration of long-acting bronchodilators, electively extubating patients in the later afternoon hours.

Cyclospora is a microscopic parasite that can affect the intestinal tract and cause diarrhea. It is an uncommon disease in the United States and is occasionally associated with foreign travel. Cyclospora infections can occur in people of all ages.Cyclospora is spread by eating or drinking contaminated food or water. Outbreaks in the United States have been associated with imported raspberries and with other fresh produce. Although the route of transmission is unclear, animals may additionally play some role in transmission.
The incubation period is generally one week after consumption of the contaminated food or water. Watery diarrhea is the most common symptom. It may last a few days to a month or longer. Other symptoms can include loss of appetite, weight loss, muscle aches, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue.
Diagnosis, Treatment, & Prevention
A stool test performed at a laboratory is needed to make the diagnosis. The immature stage of the Cyclospora parasite can be identified using specialized laboratory methods. Routine stool tests may fail to detect the parasite so health care providers must specifically request the laboratory test for Cyclospora when this infection is suspected in a patient. The recommended treatment involves a combination antibiotic called trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, also known as Bactrim or Septra. Individuals should avoid water or food that may be contaminated with stool or feces. All fruits and vegetables should be washed thoroughly.
Legal Help For Victims Affected By

|This is a discussion on Flipout tournaments within the online poker forums, in the Tournament Poker section; I'd like to know what's your thoughts about flipout tournaments? That's good choice to play these or not?
re: Poker & Flipout tournaments
I cannot play on fulltilt as I am in the US however when I heard about these I completely disagreed with them...overall I would never recommend them as it completely takes away from early and mid stage MTT play aswell as bubble play...your pretty much picking 6 lotto numbers and you have to hit 1 to move on...in this case your chances of moving on would be very unfavorable...its best to play regular MTTs where everyone gets the same starting stack and everyone has to do the same thing to cash...flipout tourneys you have no control over it...
These tournaments or do not consider poker,thet is roulette only.
How I see almost every is talking about these flipout tournaments where all the time players is going all-in. But what about them, where flipout is just in first round (1x flipout and then with stack 9xstarting stack start playing normal poker)?
re: Poker & Flipout tournaments
Well from a roi perspective these aren't a great idea. You have only a 1-9 chance of just getting to the next round (though I think you're already item after that round.) In regular formats you are going to still have to win a number of flips, but you're still going to do better than 1-9 even accounting for 2-3 flips.
Having said that however, these do have value in terms of time investment which should increase you're hourly. It really depends on how much play there will still be after the first round and how much you still have to play for which will determine you're edge and likely roi.
I actually think they aren't that bad. But you should still choose different formats when comparing. If there will still be enough play after the first round they could still be +EV in which case playing them along with other tourneys as part of a regular schedule or during a series or whatever can still be worth it. It really depends on how much play follows round 1.
These are probably good option for recreational players who get bored easily or want to play for alot of money with having to go through the hours upon hours of play as in regular tourneys. Remember afterall, it's your late game in tournaments where most of your money/roi comes from. Since these jump straight into late game play I don't think they are as bad as all the other posters seem to think.
In fact come think of it, these might not be such a bad idea at all if the rounds after the flip play quite slow and deep stacked.
Think about it, in a regular tourney you start out with deep stacks and a lot of play right in the beginning when we aren't really playing for much. Then later as the tourney progresses, stacks become much shallower and luck becomes a big factor even though it's at this point that we are actually playing for all the money.
If these have slow levels after round 1 then it could be useful to get the flipping/luck out of the way in the beggining then when we are playing for the real money in other words when our edge matters most it's deep stacks again.
I believe 888 has something similar being trialed where starting stacks are super shallow at the very start but the levels are super long. With the idea that you have to gamble right away but then as we get into the late game where the real money is made, the stacks are nice and deep for longer thus more skill is required.
I played a few of these when I first went to FTP, all small ones. Won a couple and ITM in a couple of more and basically up decent on ROI. However, the big win came when I won a seat on a $5.50 one in a $1.10 Satty and binked it (screen shots below).
The thing with these is yes, it's a flip to get past 1st round, but it's the same for every other player in there. Once you do get past the "flip" part, play is pretty soft, and with the now deep stack format, a nice combination of skill and patience you're going to get paid off good quite often. (Loafes is right BTW, you're ITM once you're past 1st round.) I will say that I can see variance being a beeotch in these
So basically, to each their own. If you don't like 'em, don't play 'em, simple as that.
If anyone wants to know why I haven't played more since that, it's because I just don't like the FTP interface. The graphics drive me insane (don't know why) and play IS TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I don't think I would like them, which is OK since they aren't an option to me in the US anyways.
But I would think that the times that you DO make it to the next round the field will be much softer than a usual MTT at the same stage. (in a normal MTT the majority of the fish have been eliminated so you are fighting for the big money with the other good players).
re: Poker & Flipout tournaments
Maybe I WOULD like to reverse that order...get the flips over with in the beginning when I've invested little time...
Well my luck sucks so I would recommend you stay clear of these.
they are basically luck only. If you hit the hole cards.. hit the board you go through.. otherwise it's bye-bye.
playing real money flipout is just ridiculous.. if you're playing FTP/FPP it's understandable and you might hit something.. otherwise it's a big no.
I'll take a 1000 player MTT tourney over a 81 player flipout anyday..

At the very worst I'd think that your full coverage insurance would take care of it.
On a side note: Yes we believe you. Yes we know crazy unexplained things happen in all sorts of places. Even so, I don't think any manufacturer is going to take responsibility for mysteriously breaking glass unless the glass out of spec. If the glass was installed incorrectly, then it would break in very short order whether being driven or sitting. If you do an online search you'll find that this is not a problem limited to any one manufacturer or model. Sometimes shit just happens.
My first window changeout was on an 85 Celica GT. The passenger side window just shattered while I was driving down the road. I don't know if it was a rock, or just that crazy insta-shattering that laminated glass want to do. Just like you don't know if it was a microscopic meteor, or a rock that was thrown so high up in the air that it came down on your car, and maybe atmospheric pressure from inside the car caused the glass to explode out and thrust the rock up and away never to be seen again.
I'm just saying, don't let these guys with their good intentions get your hopes up. Ford will probably not pay for a new sunroof glass, but your insurance will. If you're lucky, they will offer to pay for the deductible.

Celebrities and Twitter
Founded in 2006, Twitter is an online social networking and microblogging service that allows users to post text-based status updates and messages of up to 140 characters in length. These messages are known as tweets. As of the fourth quarter of 2015, Twitter had more than 305 million monthly active users.
In order to establish authenticity of identity on Twitter, accounts of people from high-interest areas such as music, fashion, entertainment, politics, media, business or other areas as well as individuals at high risk of impersonation are verified by Twitter. The verification badge symbolizes that the account is maintained by a legitimate source.
Twitter provides a near-instant access channel to celebrities. The majority of the top ten most-followed Twitter accounts are entertainers who use the medium to communicate with fans, spread relevant news regarding their work or work on their public image. The near-instant gratification through a stream of direct updates from celebrities or personalities as well as the feeling of belonging to a particular group of fans is a popular reason for social media users to use Twitter.
Major sporting events and industry award shows such as the Grammy or Academy Awards generate lots of online buzz on Twitter. The online discussion allows users to participate in the success of celebrities who often post behind-the-scenes photo tweets or commentaries. On-set or in-concert tweets are further methods of celebrities enhancing their appeal, and level of fan interaction.

The Effect of Relationship on Children's Distributive Justice Reasoning
The authors wish to thank the children who volunteered to participate, their parents, and members of the school system who facilitated data collection. Data reported in this paper were collected in partial fulfilment of an Honors thesis by the second author.
Requests for reprints should be sent to Dr. Ann V. McGillicuddy-De Lisi, Psychology Department, Lafayette College, Easton, PA 18042.
Kindergarten, third-grade, and sixth-grade children were told 2 stories about a group of children who made artwork that was subsequently sold at a craft fair. The characters in one story were described as friends, while the characters in the other story were described as strangers (relationship condition). 1 character in each story was presented as the oldest in the group, 1 as the most productive, and 1 as the poorest. Children were asked to allocate 9 dollars to the 3 characters under each relationship condition, provide rationales for those allocations, and rate the fairness of 4 different patterns of allocation. Older children allocated more money to needy friends than to needy strangers and more to productive strangers than to productive friends. Kindergartners' allocations and fairness ratings did not vary with relationship. Rationales for allocation judgements suggested that equality was the most salient principle for decisions at all ages, but the older children provided rationales based on benevolence more often than younger children when characters were presented as friends.

|Studio album by Enuff Z'nuff
|November 21, 1994
|Hard rock
|Mayhem Records, Stoney Records
|Chip Z'Nuff, Donnie Vie
|Enuff Z'nuff chronology
|Alternative cover
|Singles from Tweaked
Tweaked is the 5th studio album and first independently released collection of new material by American rock band Enuff Z'nuff.
Having been earlier presented as a glam rock band in the midst of the grunge movement, Enuff Z'nuff fought to distinguish their sound for their first proper indie release. Although the singles "Bullet From A Gun" and "Life Is Strange" lean toward a modern alternative sound, other tracks such as "My Heroin," "Without Your Love," and "How Am I Supposed To Write A Love Song" were recorded in more of a blues-rock style.
Remaining songs from Tweaked don't veer far from the formula used on earlier Enuff Z'nuff albums. Songs such as "My Dear Dream," "We're All Alright," and "Has Jesus Closed His Eyes" utilize their obvious past influences of Electric Light Orchestra, Cheap Trick and The Beatles. However, Tweaked does mark a noticeable change in direction in that lead guitar prowess was no longer a highlight. This was either due to changing times or because of the removal of guitar prodigy Derek Frigo from the band.
Tweaked was originally conceived to be half of a Japanese released double album. However, the sessions were eventually split into two records, with the other becoming Chip & Donnie's 'Brothers' (later re-released as Enuff Z'Nuff's Seven in 1997). Artwork varies on some copies of this record due to the controversial image of an Irish funeral procession that is featured on the original release.
Tweaked also marks the return of original guitarist Gino Martino to the band, though he would soon leave the group again due to a disdain for touring. Martino would continue to record occasionally with the band on studio material. The album was eventually re-released in 2000 and 2008.

Today is the first day of an epic 49 day tour of the European continent, this tour is the longest trip on offer from youth tour operator Topdeck, the 49 Day Mega European tour. The beginning of this journey will start from London and will then head south with the first two days of the tour taking in the sights of Paris. During the 49 days we will have the privilege of visiting over twenty countries from Spain and Switzerland to the historic sights through Italy where a lot of European history was made through the Roman Empire. We zig zag our way through Greece and go as far east as Turkey and its most populous city of Istanbul.
Throughout the tour we learn about the history of each European city and country we enter and the troubles and conflicts that have plagued the region over the centuries. Croatia, Austria, Poland and Germany are full of history both good and bad and our travels provide a valuable insight into what went on in good and troubled times. We continue our tour of Europe right up to Berlin and finally Amsterdam before making our final journey to where it all began in London.
Starting here I will share my experiences on the Topdeck Mega European tour and I hope you gain some valuable knowledge in planning your very own adventure to Europe.
London to Paris – 01 May, 2012
Today it begins, 49 days on the road exploring Europe and it all starts here outside the Clink 78 Hostel where the coach is waiting for us for our departure to the south of England to the port town of Dover where we will board a ferry to cross the English Channel. The weather today has turned on us as we depart London with a stereotypical day, pouring with rain. The pervious day was spectacular weather wise, but the next couple of days are not looking so great and we are lucky that we are not spending anymore time here for now.
Once we reached Dover the rain had eased, easing enough to present nice viewing conditions of the famous white cliffs. The 90 minute channel crossing was relatively calm, the occasional rocking of the ferry meant trying to get some sea legs established, but nothing major. The way these ferry's are set up there is no shortage of things to do, full of restaurants, viewing decks, lounges and even poker machines, you won't be bored. However this is a great time to get to know some of your fellow passengers that will be navigating Europe with you for the next month and a half.
After arriving on the French side of the channel in Calais we met our driver who will have the enormous task of taking us around Europe for the next 49 days, then it was straight onto the bus for our journey toward Paris. Along the many journeys there are plenty of opportunities for rest breaks, so no need to stress about missing out on that toilet or food break.
Our accommodation for the next two nights was located on the outskirts of Paris at the Ibis Budget Hotel, it was the first time Topdeck were using this hotel for accommodation, so we were the guinea pigs. We settled into our hotel for the night and then it was time for our first included dinner on the trip that included the opportunity for everyone to try a bit of a French delicacy… Snails. If your stomach turns at the thought never fear, once cooked it looks nothing like a snail and tastes like butter and garlic.
When we finished dinner we all jumped back on the bus for our night driving tour of Paris, it was spectacular to see Paris all lit up at night and gave us all an opportunity to plan what we wanted to do the next day. Our first stop was to see the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris (Basilique du Sacré-Cœur), from the top of the monument we get to see stunning views of the Paris skyline, on this day masses of people were everywhere as it was a public holiday in Paris. This is also a hot spot for the infamous 'string men' who operate around the steps to try and scam unsuspecting tourists into giving up their time for a few minutes in order to pickpocket them. You can read more on how they operate on this website.
Our driving tour of Paris then continued to take in the rest of the sites, driving past the famous Moulin Rouge, the Louvre where the coach squeezed through a very narrow archway, a credit to our awesome driver and continued down the most famous avenue in the world Avenue des Champs-Élysées where the Arc de Triomphe sits at the end.
Our driving tour of Paris would not be complete without stopping at the icon of Paris the Eiffel Tower. Most of the driving tour is just sitting in the bus and listening to our very knowledgeable tour leader tell us the history of each site and hints and tips on seeing them the following day, however as this is really our only opportunity to see the Eiffel Tower lit up at night we braved the chaos of hundreds of other tourist coaches and were able to get out for a quick happy snap of the iconic structure.
This was the final stop of our driving tour which lasted for about three hours, so for many of us it was a relief that it was time to head back to the hotel for some well earned shut eye. It had been an action packed day, starting at 6am to check in, leaving London and arriving in Paris in the late afternoon via the English Channel. Tomorrow will be just as busy with Paris being such a spread out city, it will be a challenge to see everything in one day.
Paris – 02 May, 2012
Today was our free day to explore Paris and the challenge was that Paris is not a city you can see in just one day, strategic planning was needed in order to maximise the days sightseeing activities. We needed to see the main attractions the Louvre Museum, Notre Dame and of course the Eiffel Tower while factoring in that we had a Fat Tire Bike Tour planned as one of Topdeck's optional extras at 3pm. The bike tour started from the base of the Eiffel Tower so it was a no brainer that we left that until later in the afternoon.
To start the day off we had two options, the first being that the Topdeck coach can drop us off at selected locations around the city, however it didn't leave until 9:15am and then you have to factor in peak hour traffic on top of that, so the prediction was that we wouldn't make it into central Paris until 11am. Most people chose that option, however the best option was to catch the Paris Metro into the city, the closest metro station from our accommodation was a 15 minute walk away called Aubervilliers – Pantin – Quatre Chemins, but was well worth the early morning stroll.
We found our way to the Metro station and took the train to the station directly next to the Louvre, we were warned about the massively long lines that we would have to navigate particularly at the main entrance. We were told about a hidden side entry to the Louvre which usually doesn't have any long queues, however to our surprise (and punctuality arriving just before the 9am opening time) the line to the main entrance was relatively short and moving quite fast so we entered through the distinctive glass pyramid.
Going to the Louvre you need to have a game plan, it's impossible to see everything within the museum and we only really had half a day so we didn't want to spend too much time here. It's said that there are so many items in the museum that it would take one person 9 months to look at each item for 30 seconds, that's 8 months 30 days and 12 hours that we did not have. Our plan was simple, get in and find the main attraction the Mona Lisa and then get out to see the next attraction on our to do list.
One of the most common stories you hear about the Mona Lisa is how small the actual painting is, so naturally walking in around the corner and being confronted with the famous painting I was expecting a tiny painting. Personally I didn't think it was THAT small and by all means I'm no expert on art, nor will I pretend to be, but it looked like a regular sized painting, but then again what do I know.
Continuing on to try and see Paris in a logical order, we now headed away from most attractions to go and see the Notre Dame, located on one of the two islands on the Seine River this is truly an impressive building. As a working church you are welcome to go inside and look around, and what I found even more surprising is that you are allowed to take photos if you wish, the only condition is that your flash is turned off. We had a quick look around inside and took the obligatory photos in front of the cathedral, there is also the option to climb to the top of the building for views of the city skyline, however the line was a little long and we were pressed for time so this was one of the many sacrifices for the day.
Next we walked along the river and made our way down back past the Louvre Museum and to the Place de la Concorde before taking a stroll down the Avenue des Champs-Élysées. Walking down the avenue we head towards to end where the Arc de Triomphe awaits, the Arc is accessible via underground tunnels which is an advisable route to take as not too many people are silly enough to try and cross the twelve lanes of traffic circling the roundabout. It is said that an accident is caused on average every 8 minutes, and it is one of the only places where if an accident is caused, no one is covered by insurance.
At this point of the day we were really pushing for time and we had not yet seen the Eiffel Tower, we needed to be there at 3pm for our bike tour but we still wanted to go up the steal structure as it is a must for any visit to Paris. There is no doubt that if you are able bodied you need to take the stairs to the second level of the tower, first of all it is a more fun experience, you will defiantly get a work out and the line is really short compared to the main entrance for the lift. The stairs will take you as far as level two but if you're like us and don't see the point in just going half way, you can pay a little extra and catch the lift from level two up to level three.
The view from the top of the Eiffel Tower is impressive and there is no other way of putting it, but keeping in mind that we were pressed for time we now started to realise that we might miss our bike tour of Paris. We were at the very top of the tower and there was a massive line waiting to take the lift down to the second level, it was now ten minutes to three when we finally made it through the line and made our way down the lift. Arriving on level two it was now time to run down the stairs, thankfully a lot easier than climbing up them, but with any stairs you are always going to encounter slower people along the way. It is fair to say that many other tourists were casualties of our massive rush down the tower, pushing them out the way we made it to the tour at 3:05pm with them still waiting for us. Talk about timing!
We joined our scheduled Fat Tire Bike Tour at the base of the Eiffel Tower, the bike tour took in most of the sights of Paris we had already explored both today and the previous night on our driving tour, but this time we got a lot of the history behind each landmark and a loverly bike ride through the city. We also got to experience the strange road rules (from an Australian perspective) by riding our bikes on the road and going through a few infamous intersections. One such intersection was the roundabout at the Place de la Concorde, roundabouts in Paris involve having to give way to entering vehicles into a roundabout rather than giving way to vehicles already in the roundabout, that was a strange rule to take in, on top of that I'm riding a bike on the opposite side of the road than I'm used to back at home.
Once our bike tour had finished we made our way back to the Eiffel Tower to be reunited with the rest of our tour group, tonight is a picnic dinner at the base of the tower, however by this time the rain had set in and in an apparent Topdeck tour first we had a picnic buffet dinner on the bus, it worked quite well.
This evening we had the optional extra of seeing a Cabaret Show, unfortunately not the famous Moulin Rouge which is apparently booked out weeks in advance. The show featured all the usual singing and dancing associated with Cabaret, but one of the most entertaining aspects was the barman getting up on stage with a unicycle and throwing cups and sauces up with his foot, catching them in a neat stack on his head and then doing the same with a tea pot and pouring some tea with his mouth. A must see experience for Paris, but it won't be everyones cup of tea (mind the pun).
With everyone now exhausted from the long day in Paris, it was back on the bus, back to our hotel and ready for the long bus trip to Switzerland tomorrow to see the Swiss Alps and spend two nights in the small village of Lauterbrunnen.

Hi Dan,
This is the best travel blog i have ever read! I was wondering if you had a printable version you could email to me, as i would love to take it with me as a reference!
Thanks 🙂

Hi Dan I love reading your blog! I'm considering heading over from Brisbane to do a tour of europe with top deck, solo!! I've never travelled alone and your blog is helping to ease the nerves! Can I ask were you solo ? Your blog reads like you flew with someone from Australia..
Also, did you find on the tour that there were enough stops for bathroom breaks? And bathroom facilities at the tourist spots? This is one thing that is really holding me back from booking!
John Says: September 25, 2014 at 4:17 pm
Hi Dan,
Great blog. Was thinking of doing the mega European tour with my partner, but have read I shouldn't expect to spend every night together. Were there many couples on your trip? And how did they accommodate them, were they fairly good in keeping them together or was it more of a luck of the draw.

Nets sign GM Billy King to contract extension
Associated Press | Last updated April 26, 2013
Coming off their first season in Brooklyn in which the franchise ended a six-year playoff drought, the Nets have signed general manager Billy King to a contract extension. King, hired by the Nets in 2010, put together a that went 49-33 in its first season after moving from New Jersey, matching the second-best record in franchise history. ''Billy has been a great asset to the Nets organization over the last three years'', Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov said in a statement announcing the extension on Friday. ''He has shown he is not afraid to be bold and take risks, and, as a result, we have a playoff team with a world of potential. We are glad we will have the opportunity to continue our work together and realize that potential.'' Terms of the deal were not disclosed. After a 79-76 loss at Chicago on Thursday night, the Nets trail the Bulls 2-1 in the first-round playoff series. Game 4 is Saturday at Chicago, with Game 5 set for Monday night back in Brooklyn. Before joining the Nets, King spent 10 years with the 76ers, serving as the team's president from 2003-2007.

DmC Launch Sales Bust In Japan, Performs Worse Than All Predecessors
Posted on Thursday, January 24 @ 19:27:14 PST by Jonathan_Leack
Devil may fail?
Media Create's figures for the week of January 14th to January 20th place DmC: Devil May Cry at the top, but even that's not quite enough. With fewer than 116,000 units sold across two platforms, it has failed to meet even the lowest first-week sales numbers in Japan for the series. Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening has now moved to being the second worst performer with over 190,000 units sold in its first week, a respectable margin over its younger—and stranger looking—brother.
Below are the top 20 selling games on the list:
DmC was certainly no stranger to controversy prior to release, and it appears that did more harm than good. We found the game to be delightful, so it's safe to say that poor execution isn't a factor. You can't blame the genre, either, when God of War III was able to break 1.2 million units sold in the same time frame only two years ago. Yep, DmC is just a sales bust (so far).
In case you're wondering, the Xbox 360 version sold less than 5,724 units while the PlayStation 3 version sold precisely 110,429. The question is who's doing worse in Japan, Microsoft or the new Dante?

Flower Gardening Your Way to Amazing Health
Being healthy is the new fad these days. Exercises have evolved and produced different ways of getting fit. Gone are the days where the only means of exercising were jogging in the park or joining a gym. These days you can chose innovative ways of exercising that range from Pilates to high intensity training.
By fusing dance with exercises an element of fun has been added to rather boring sequences of exercises. Freestyle yoga, Bollywood dancing, Zumba, boot camps, anti-gravity yoga, burlesque dancing etc. are new and exciting ways to reach your fitness goals. People are also moving from conventional medicines towards more holistic ways to improve and rejuvenate health.
Mental Health:
A peaceful state of mind is as important as a fit physical body to achieve overall health. Mental health issues were considered taboo, though now there is a certain amount of awareness. Though, it has a long way to go to gain prominence enough to be considered as a serious health issue.
Most of the health professionals suggest meditation to recover form psychological disorders. Meditation is the process of draining your mind of all your burden by concentrating your focus on breathing patterns. Meditation definitely helps in alleviating suffering of the mind, but many people find it difficult especially the ones with a short concentration span.
There are many alternative methods to achieve benefits of meditation. These include reading self-help books, socialising with like-minded people, learning a new art form such as music, dance or painting, travelling to new places, exploring new cuisines etc. All of these activities work effectively but lack in continuity i.e. all of the above methods last for a scheduled period of time bulbsandbeyond.
For example: Finish reading the books, end of a trip, etc. This might lead to relapse in the same psychological problems. Gardening is one activity that eludes the above stated risk by ensuring longevity of the activity.

George Lucas Criticizes 'Retro' Style of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'
Although George Lucas is no longer involved, interviewers can't help but ask the creator of the Star Wars franchise for his thoughts on Disney's new direction with the series. Lucas recently shared some brief, civil thoughts on The Force Awakens, calling it "very much the kind of movie" fans have been looking for, but what does that mean, exactly? In another new interview, Lucas elaborates.


text: Why have we seen the likes of Ryan Villopoto, Mike Alessi, and Trey Canard fall out of the series? There have been many more riders than those guys fall on hard times, but when title contenders get hurt it really raises eyebrows. I went over this in my mind over and over on my drive back to North Carolina from Morgantown. I thought about what it would be like to spend three months training, practicing, and testing then jump into an 17-round supercross meat grinder. After all of that, you have two weeks to "chill" before you stare down one of the most demanding physical efforts in all of sports. Racing two 30-minute-plus-two-lap motos at the professional level is gnarly. But, those motos are the easy part in a way. The training and track time a rider spends before the race is arguably tougher. Especially if you train and ride hard enough to win when Saturday finally arrives. The question I kept coming up with is: "How do they not get hurt more often?" I don't care if you are as smooth as Christophe Pourcel or as wild as Justin Barcia, every single time you throw a leg over a motorcycle you are putting your head in the lion's mouth. Then, I thought about how astonishing it was for a guy like Ricky Carmichael, who has ridden more laps and spent more time on the seat than any rider who has ever lived. That guy did gas tank after gas tank and put away 15 titles and the only things that slowed him down were a collarbone and a knee. Who really knows how many small broken bones and concussions he had that nobody knew about, but the fact is, only two or three injuries took him off the track in a 10-year career. Amazing. Then look at guys like Travis Pastrana, Robbie Reynard, and Ben Townley. Every time those poor bastards hit the ground something let go. Don't even get me started about poor Broc Hepler. A racer's body type has almost everything to do with his ability to withstand crashes. Ricky is made like a mini-Mack truck. You can throw him out of a car on a gravel road going 70mph and he could just ball up and take it. Those three guys I just mentioned would be a mess. They're tall and lanky. But, back to the topic at hand: Let's look at RV Park. He's built a lot like Ricky and he's been through some big crashes and remained intact for the most part. He has a bum wrist, and now a knee that's taken him away from a likely fourth consecutive outdoor title. It sounds like his knee finally gave up after several knocks. The same thing took a supercross title from Mike Fisher and James Stewart in 2008. It isn't because he's on a 450, or was riding the infamous Kawasaki practice track. More than likely it was from riding a dirt bike since he was three. Ah, and then come the Alessi questions. Why was he riding on Monday? What was he doing trying to triple in that section? So on, so forth. Hey, Carmichael would have been pounding laps at his practice track and the same thing could have happened. Dirt bikes are dangerous and they'll wear your body out one way or the other. Hey, he could have been water skiing like Bob Hannah in 1979... The biggest pisser for me has been Trey Canard. It echoed back to 2006 when I saw James Stewart hit the deck no more than 100 yards. from where Trey landed. Two laps from their masterpiece and BOOM! Done. A lack of concentration? A bad line choice? Were they tired? Maybe it's all three, but the real reason slaps you right in the face - they were riding dirt bikes. Fast. On to some speculation as to why injuries are happening. In the 1980s, there was a big scream about big jumps causing the guys to go down. The jumps were pretty steep and unforgiving there for a while, but since then a supercross triple is so easy they jump them the first lap. Riders are still getting injured. From first-turn pileups (Daytona) to yard sales in the whoops (Vegas). And, thus far in the outdoor nationals, I could jump every double or triple the riders have seen. And I suck. Tracks are built to be safer, but dudes are still getting worked. The simple common denominator - two wheels and a throttle. "Everyman dies, but not every man truly lives." That's a pretty heavy (and cheesy) quote from Braveheart, but I always go back to it when I think about riding and racing dirt bikes. The freedom of becoming one with a machine, flying through the air like an eagle, pounding through the wind like a steaming locomotive... It's why we do it, and the core dirt bike rider knows nothing better. No drug, or herbicidal experience comes close. And they all know that eventually they will go down, and go down hard. But they get back up. "Fall down seven times, get up eight," dammit. A lot has changed since the early halcyon days of motocross. The equipment is way better. Every promoter makes sure the track is as safe as it can be. We have the Mobile Medical Unit, and a huge overall effort is made to make things as safe as they can be. But riders are going to go down still and get hurt. It's not happening any more than it ever did. They did it in the '60s, and they'll do it in 2020. That is why it's your responsibility as a fan to keep that shirt swinging every single lap. If it's a runaway, you keep cheering because that bastard could stack it up any time! Hey, I hate seeing guys get broke off, but I hate even more seeing guys not doing what they love. I hate seeing droves of human cattle just waiting to punch the clock. Hey, I've broken almost everything in my body, had tubes, catheters, and IVs. But, if there is a bag of gear and a dirt bike lying around, this homeboy is hitting it. Motocross and its inherent danger is what makes me knock down the keys on this laptop every Thursday. I'll gladly drive 1000-mile round trip just to earn a massive sunburn watching the gate drop. If you're reading this far down, you would too. And more than likely you've ridden and crashed, and gotten back up. In closing, I just want to send all my best to you guys wearing plaster or hardware out there.

Wood Single Chaise Lounge
false pdp {"scheme":"product1_cr"}
false pdp {"scheme":"product2_cr"}
Wood Single Chaise Lounge is rated out of 5 by 16.
Rated 5 out of 5 by LyninNC from Looks great Easy assembly adding legs and wheels. One screw on each (2) chaise wouldn't tighten, so I added some wood glue and that took care of it. Won't be able unassemble, but that's ok. Looks beautiful. I love the moveable shelf! Easy to move around into the shade with the wheels.

Rated 5 out of 5 by misterdad from Chase Lounger and Cushions This lounger is certainly made well. Your packaging for delivery is superior to most packages I receive. Thanks for all your attention to detail. I was able to assemble everything with the instruction and the small tool enclosed with the parts. You seem to think of everything. I am enjoying the lounger and the really nice cushions and will do so for several years. Thanks for this fine product. J. Baker

Rated 5 out of 5 by IzzyA from Excellent value chaise lounge Have been looking for patio chase lounge chairs for about a year. Very happy with these so far--nice finish, solid but easy to move. Took me about 1/2 hour to put each one together. Very good value--you could pay more but seeing that all outdoor furniture gets ratty over time I just don't see the point of that. Cushions fit well, comfortable.

Chapter XLIII: Clever
An excerpt from
Diary of the Clever
Entry 16: 7
Date 78 of 7499 SC
The door loomed before us, taller than any door in the parts of the Colony that we knew. That meant the door was built for something bigger than anything we knew. And as the others came to this realization shortly after I did, I could sense it as each neuron fired in their brains. But not just that - I could make sense of it with a raw intuition I had never felt before.
My unconscious mind did the interpreting, and the rest of me simply focused. This, I knew, was neuroplasticity at its best. My nerves were sensing something beyond what was in front of them. I felt as if I had become more than the sum of my parts. I was literally reading minds.
And I hated it terribly.
I don't like the constant reassurance that I am the smartest one in the room. I don't like knowing too much about too many things. Every juvenile thought that occurs to my companions echoes through me, and I feel a superiority that I disdain.
So I learned to turn it off.
But now, I needed it. I needed to know what they sensed before they told me. I needed every and any bit of knowledge that could give us the upper hand in this confrontation.
I held one of Father's blaster wrists in both hands. We'd salvaged a few of them from a recycling dump site that Sister wasn't tending to. With Bold's help doing the research for me, I was able to rewire the ones that weren't badly damaged. Now, they fired for us when we tapped two wires together momentarily. It was an overpowered and unpredictably crude weapon, but it was better than nothing.
Tender, however, had taken up one of Father's bladed arms, and used Sister's welding station to refit it with a hand grip.
I had struggled to use my ability on the work station console, trying to assess the flow of electrons and discern the purpose of the buttons and switches. I wasn't much help; I merely saved us from some trial and error. I came to the conclusion that it was too ambitious to think I could read a machine's thoughts, even a machine that wasn't sentient.
Tender pried at the door with the blade and yet was unable to wedge it open. He had his mind set on getting inside and making better sense of things.
We had demands for the machines, and we had information they would benefit from. I even had a few plans to propose to the machines - things we can't do on our own.
"How do we get inside?" asked Capricious. It was a question I had already heard from several nearby thoughts.
Except from Ethereal. She was thinking nothing. Her mind was in a blank, meditative state. Then she spoke, "Allow me." Don't think, just do it!
She walked forward.
Tender blinked.
And Ethereal just kept walking.
They should have collided, but all I saw was Tender shiver and his eyes rolled back into his head momentarily.
And then she melted right through the door, too.
"Where'd she go?" Tender was stupefied.
"This morning, she told me she dreamed she was a ghost," said Capricious.
I frowned. I didn't understand Ethereal's powers. It was very unpredictable. And she didn't seem to miss home enough to bring us all back there in one bout of longing. I had seen her transmute food and change her clothes with mere wishes, and that made me curious about how often and how limited the use of her power could be.
Something beeped five times. The fifth was louder and more dissonant, like a console rejecting input.
I read Ethereal's thoughts. She was on the other side of the door, trying to find the right code to punch in and make the door open.
I drew my focus to the numpad panel and attempted to determine the variable it was checking the input against. I pulled my self back, the numbers lodged in my mind. 7384.
She was about to give up and come back through the door to explain the situation to us.
I knocked on the door with my fist, seven times.
Afterwards, I sensed confusion in her, not just in the others. So, I repeated the knocking.
Ethereal punched in a seven on the numpad. I could tell both from her and the pad that the beep we just heard was the seven.
"What are you two doing, Clever?" asked Tender.
"Quiet," said Capricious. "I think he's reading her."
I knocked three times and then paused. As soon as she punched in the three, eliciting another beep, I knocked the eight. And then, after a brief moment, I knocked four more times. Beep. Beep. Then a louder, consonant ring.
We all stood back, holding our breath.
The doors slid open. On the other side, Ethereal was standing modestly, waving shyly as if she was passing us by chance in the halls.
Then we looked up into the shadows of the Warehouse behind her. And she, too, turned around.
The insectoid loomed thirty feet above the cold, hard floor of the Warehouse. Its pincers gleamed menacingly. Feet fell thunderously, each as thick as a tree trunk. It was heavily armoured and gleamed with an unblemished coat of metal.
"Father?" said Tender, as we all backed slowly away from the threatening manifestation.
"Brother. A giant soldier ant," said Capricious.
Pincers within pincers. Antennae that were clearly more than just antennae.
Tender raised his long serrated blade defensively.
I braced myself, as I immitated Ethereal's wise decision to aim for its head. My fingers twitched, ready to join the wires of the blaster if the robot so much as threatened us.
"Father is dead," it told us, as I struggled to focus on its immense circuitry. I was overwhelmed even before it spoke again, sending projectile launch calculations soaring through its own mind. "Soon, you will be too."

Annie: Best FriendMature
We make it to the italian and I jump out of the car. Maybe I should be less hasty. She really might think I like this new waitress.
I mean yeah the waitress is super hot. She has a thin waist and holds her delicate body strongly but..... I look across at Rosalita then shake my head.
"Come on then miss I-fancy-the-waitress" She jokes smiling. I blush. I wish she wouldn't think that. I like her smile.
"Okay" I say smiling back we head for the italian and I lower myself carefully into the seat. I open the menu hiding behind it. I search up and down the menu even though I know what I want.
"You again" I look up to see the waitress faced towards me. I see Rosalita smiling past her and I blush. "Same as you had yesterday?" she asks.
I nod and she smiles before turning to Rosalita who gives her order quickly. When the waitress moves off Rosalita leans across the table. "I now totally understand why" She says smiling. I blush. "What's her name?"
"Kaitlin.... but she's not on our team she has a boyfriend" I say.
"Ahh, to bad. But we can watch though" Rosalita says winking.
I don't want to watch her. I want to watch you. That's what I want to say but I know she would be shocked.
She doesn't care about me like that.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I am a neutral forefront runner and have only just found this out after going for my feet/running assessing.
It was the best thing I have done - My friend laughs at my running because I run on my toes and I have now found out that there are other people who run just like me I am not so weird as I thought!!!
It doesnt say where you are from but I went to Humber runner in Hull and my new trainers cost me £100.00 - bit expensive but they are the new range of trainer for a neutral forefront runner. If you want I can find out the exact name as I am sure you will be able to get them cheaper from somewhere else.
also remember that there should be enough room at the front of your trainer to allow for movement. I am a size 6 and ended up with a size 7 trainer but much better - and no more shin splints or dead toes either!!!

The petition was approved while I was there does that make any difference? Also I have a sister that is a US Citizen can she file a petition for me?
It does make a big difference. You then have to get a substitute sponsor for an affidavit of support. But you still need to ask for a special permission to be admitted after your removal. Your sister can petition you but it will take no less than 8-10 years before you can get a green card.
OK, I understand, another thing is I got ban for 10 years there is any waiver I can apply to reduce the time? They did not barred me at the point that i cant t go back to America, I was deported at the first time for overstay in 2006 and 2007 for trying to reentry.
No. The only way you can reduce the time is if you apply for permission known as I-212, and it is granted. The main problem with that is that you need to show that you have a spouse, parent or child who is a US citizen or a green card holder who will suffer extreme hardship if you are not admitted. Even though your sister is a US citizen, she does not qualify.
Thank you for your help.

Michelle Bachelet on Gender Equality: A Lived Reality?Culture and Society
Michelle Bachelet is a medico, the first Under- Secretary-General and Executive Director of UN Women.
And...she was President of Chile from 2006 through to 2010. She was imprisoned and tortured during the Pinochet regime and her father, a general in the Chilean Air Force was arrested and accused of treason against the regime, was tortured and died in prison.
She is a very impressive and generous woman and her focus in the current UN job is to stem violence against women, to work towards gender equality and to deliver on the promise of equal rights.
She has long been a champion of womens rights, and when she took on the Chilean presidency, she led by example and appointed 50% women to the cabinet. It was a bold and provocative move and she makes no apology about the need to take temporary affirmative action. And to counter any complaints about appointing on merit, she says whos ever asked if men have merit!
Bachelet made this address to the Australian National University Gender Institute who presented the event along with AusAID.

Red Bull drivers move on from Monaco mishaps
By Ian Gordon
MONTREAL (Reuters) - Max Verstappen believes he has learnt more from his crash in Monaco than from becoming Formula One's youngest-ever race winner in Barcelona.
Two weeks after rewriting the record books on the Circuit de Catalunya on his race debut for Red Bull, the 18-year-old Dutch driver was brought back to earth with a bang in the most watched race of all.
Verstappen crashed into the barriers having been forced to start from the back of the grid after also finding Monte Carlo's streets unforgiving in qualifying.
"I would say disappointed of course but you learn from those weekends even more than I did in Barcelona," said Verstappen of what he would take from the setback. "You need that sometimes to become better."
Verstappen, a winner in Spain last month, said his confidence remained high ahead of Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix.
"I am ready to go again. It's a week ago now, so you get over it," he told reporters on Thursday, with the team showing increasing signs of competitiveness.
"We can challenge for podiums and sometimes victories and that's what we have to do," added the youngster, who moved up from junior team Toro Rosso last month.
Red Bull team-mate Daniel Ricciardo missed out on the win in Monaco after the team did not have the correct tyres ready at his second pit-stop, but he had also moved on from that disappointment. Continued...
