Graduate Research Project Grants
Graduate Research Project Grants will enable doctoral candidates to develop and implement international research collaborations within the U21 network. These Projects are very flexible and we encourage doctoral candidates, with the support of their supervisors/advisors, to think innovatively about how their research could benefit from engagement with other members of the U21 network.
Basic outline
- Projects can be in any discipline or cross-disciplinary and should aid the development of transferable skills for doctoral candidates, allowing them to work independently, as well as in teams, on activities that benefit their doctoral research.
- These Projects aim to give doctoral candidates a global view of problem solving and group work, and facilitate cross-cultural working practices.
- Publically accessible outputs are expected from the Project; the form of the outputs will depend on the nature of the Project.
- At least 3 U21 members — from at least 2 countries — must be involved in the Project.
- In 2016 the overall budget for the Grants is US$25,000. It is expected that several Projects will be supported.
2016 Timeline
Call for applications opens: Monday 11 July 2016
Deadline for applications: Friday 9 September 2016 (applications to be sent to email@example.com)
Decisions announced: by 1 October 2016
Funding to be transferred to the lead institution's Graduate School by 31 October 2016
Further information
An outline of the Graduate Research Project Grants, including objectives and eligibility requirements is available below, along with Frequently Asked Questions and the Application Form.

When you are constipated, the last thing that you want to do is to eat anything that is only going to make things worse. There are plenty of things that you can eat that will help to ease constipation, so it shouldn't be too much of a deprivation to skip the foods that you will find below.

Some of these foods you may choose to avoid only when you are constipated, but there are others that you may want to avoid altogether so as to prevent further bouts of constipation.

Note: There is very little published research regarding the effects of specific foods on constipation. The following recommendations are therefore to be considered common sense guidelines.

White flour is wheat that has had most of its gut-healthy fiber stripped away. A healthy intake of fiber is essential for keeping your bowels humming along smoothly. Therefore, to help to ease constipation now (and perhaps prevent it from coming back), avoid:

Bagels

Cake

Cookies

Donuts

Pepperoni

Pizza

Salami

Sandwiches made with white bread, toast, or buns

Processed meats are thought to be hard on the digestive system. You don't want to give it a new job, e.g. working hard on your last meal, when it hasn't finished up its original task—that of emptying out any prior meals. In addition, processed meats typically contain nitrates, substances that may increase constipation.

Therefore, when constipated (and beyond!), avoid:

Bacon

Bologna

Hot dogs

Sausage

Like processed meats, fried and other greasy foods are hard for the body to digest, slowing the process down and therefore possibly contributing to constipation. To ease constipation and perhaps prevent it from coming back, avoid:

Barbecued ribs

Fast food hamburgers

French fries

Fried chicken

Fried fish

Buffalo wings

Many people report that dairy products can make them constipated. This may be due to the effect of lactose or some of the various proteins found in dairy products. Avoid the foods on the following list when you are constipated.

Cheese of all types

Ice cream

Milk

Sour cream

Yogurt*

*Once your constipation has eased, you may want to try to eat yogurt again. Yogurt has gut-healthy probiotics that may help to keep you from getting constipated in the first place.

If you suffer from chronic constipation, you may want to try an elimination diet in which you avoid eating any dairy for a few weeks to see if this has any effect on your symptoms.

Many experts point to red meat as a food to be avoided when you are constipated. However, it may be the type of red meat that is the problem. Meat from conventionally raised, grain-fed cows, do appear to contain substances (proteins, unhealthy fats) that can contribute to constipation.

If you really love your beef, it may be worth it to spend a little more on meat that comes from grass-fed, pastured cows. Since the cows are eating the food that they are best adapted to eat, their meat contains the substances that we humans are best adapted to eat. Therefore, you may be able to enjoy your red meat without complicating your constipation problem.

In this first modern biography of Nathaniel P. Banks, James G. Hollandsworth, Jr., reveals the complicated and contradictory nature of the man who called himself the "fighting politician." Despite a lack of formal education, family connections, and personal fortune, Banks (1816--1884) advanced from the Massachusetts legislature to the governorship to the U.S. Congress and Speaker of the House. He learned early in his political career that the pretext of conviction can be more important than the conviction itself, and he practiced a politics of expedience, espousing popular beliefs but never defining beliefs of his own. A leader in the new Republican party, he developed a reputation as a compelling orator and a politician with a bright future.
At the onset of the Civil War, Lincoln appointed Banks a major general, and, as Hollandsworth shows, the same pretext of conviction that served Banks so well in politics proved disastrous on the battlefield. He suffered resounding defeats in the 1862 Shenandoah Valley Campaign, the Battle of Cedar Mountain, and the Red River Campaign. Illuminating the personal characteristics that stalled the promise of Banks's early political career and contributed to his dismal record as a commanding officer, Hollandsworth demonstrates how Banks's obsessive pretense of glory prevented him from achieving its reality.

The 29" wheels allow you to carry high speed over a great variety of terrain.
The devil's in the detail. For starters, the 6061 aluminium top and downtubes are extremely light and stiff thanks to Cube's mechanical forming process. Standout touches include internally routed cables and a very neat IS disc mount between the seat and chainstays.
Dropout eyelets make a transformation into daily commuter easy. The Agile Ride Geometry is inspired by Cube's race bike experience, providing agile and lively handling that's still easy to control: perfect for trail fun and on longer rides.
The Aim Pro is equipped with all sorts of high-end goodies - a perfect introduction to disc brake-equipped Cube mountain bikes.
Hydraulic Tektro HDM 285 disc brakes provide safe and powerful stopping even in adverse conditions. The sensitive Suntour XCT suspension fork with 100mm travel gives maximum comfort and control even on the roughest trails.
Meanwhile, the 3x8 Shimano transmission shifts reliably and smoothly and Schwalbe Smart Sam tyres combine low rolling resistance with stacks of off-road grip. It all makes for a relaxed riding experience, allowing you to achieve maximum performance with minimum fuss.

She still bore his sword, even while she was riding or cooking, she always had it with her; it was the last thing she had of him since they brought it back from the war. Specifically to give it to her, a parade of men had marched up to the horse in the middle of the night and woken her to present her with her father's sword. She couldnt cry or mourn for someone that she had no clear memory of, and her 5 year old mind would not let her think that he had really died.
But she had now excepted it, and like so many other people in that dark world, was trying to live with the consequences that war brung and also banish the idea that one day there will be another one. Yet at 11 years old, 6 years on from the last glorious and final war, tension started to mount again. Every now and then, her eyes would glance at the full moon and hear the cries of wolves and man combined, here the scream of a distant village being ransacked, but not for treasure, but for blood.
Werewolves were known for the capicity to kill, their brutality during battle was well known and even prided on that some human warriors would seek their blood to achieve their level of skill. Yet their downfall was their savage rage, their inability to control their anger and emotions, so they were left in almost servitude of the vampires. They were the one threat to vampires, the one thing that could kill them apart from cutting their head off; and even then you had to be close enough to that. Because of the werewolves lack of ambition, they lived like the animals they were, and let the vampires thrive in a world that was designed for werewolf living. Only when the first werewolf gave birth to a human child, an anomoly that sent shivers through the spines of every human who knew they were descended from their kind.
Everyone, therefore, had some werewolf blood in them, if they looked deep enough, they would find the source of werewolf animal brutality; but more importantly for some people, the source of a werewolves immortality. Therefore the humans would always fight on the side of the werewolf, whenever the balance was tipped the vampires would wage war to wipe out the werewolves and to beat them into submission. Even the humans were treated the same, as they were less than vampires, and merely their food source; so they too were beaten and broken to the point where they were forced to retract into the lighter plains of the land. There they were slightly protected by the early sunrise and late sunset, but that didnt last long, for the night seemed to be an eternity. The humans believed that one day, someone from werewolf decent would be able to conquer the unimaginable power of the vampire; to kill the legion and end the battle over the night.
Esma sat crossed legged in the stables, staring up at the maid she proclaimed to be her mother while stroking a horse, listening intently to all the horror stories of the past. Occasional when she would mention the vampires, Esma would turn and look towards the moon and touch her neck; comforted by it's smooth chain and cold feel. The maid stopped for a moment, looking out the moon and then quickly stole away into the back of the stables. The little girl looked on with almost comical eyes, thinking this was a game of some sort, something the maid did when she was not paying attention to her stories. She waited and waited until the maid was beginning to become late for her own relief. Esma removed herself from the floor, dusted off the stray that had stuck to her and realised that she was beginning to get worried. She almost hope that this was another one of the maid's training exercises that she had been doing since she was 5, something she had got used to doing; but not at this time of night, when there was a risk of someone finding out what they were doing.
Werewolves patrolled the human life, making sure no one was doing anything they shouldnt be and making sure no vampires were around; but it had been so long since they had dared come near the human plain that the patrol was beginning to slack. That was how one got in. Through the little border between the mountains and the track to the human plain, they swept across the last carriage and hide underneath, thirsty and desperate for some human blood instead of the animal blood which they had been forced to endure for the last 6 years. The carriage drew to a stop and making sure the light was not directed in it's face, sprouted it's broken wings and waited for the human's delayed reaction to his presence. Panic always seemed to make the blood pump faster, but there was no one around to frighten into submission and fear, instead he sought out appropriate shelter while the patrol moved eastwards towards him. He spotted to small stables and entered, realising the irony of coming here for human blood and taking refuge with animals.
He heard a giggle and the scampering of feet, almost not believing his luck, a small, well rounded woman ran straight into him; unaware of his sudden presence. She looked up with apologetic eyes, then fear; he was standing over her, shadowing her moves. She couldnt scream, couldnt run, couldnt do anything but stare at him. He smiled, glad it would be so easy, but slightly disappointed he didnt stirr up more trouble; but then again he knew a vampire death in the human plain would mean the beginning of a battle of some sort, just what was planned. He leaned over, ready for the neck that was displayed underneath a small collar of the gown the maid wore.
Esma came out of the stables, looked around and noticed two shadows dancing on the side of the stables, where her maid must have gone out the back; maybe this was a mutliple training exercise. She became excited at the prospect that she might be greeted by a werewolf, their stories had fascinated and she knew the maid had known one before the battle before. Yet as she turned the corner, the hollow eyed and yellow skinned vampire standing over her maid who stood rigid and slightly shivering either through fear or the terrible wind that ripped through the air. Instinctively the vampire turned his attention to the younger blood, a young child's death woud be more satisfying for him and also more news and sympathy and anger when found out. He closed the gap within seconds, clutching Esma in the palm of his hand and against the wall. Suddenly he was caught by a hot and seering feeling, quickly removing his hand to let the little girl fall, his hand was marked by a circle with the signs of vampire and werewolf from the beginning. The detailed plans and language that had long been lost was now imprinted into his dead flesh, still smoking from the impact and heat. Esma rapidly got to her feet, removed her sword and prayed that it would be the everlasting effect of a sword crafted before the time of battle that would kill a vampire. She plunged it into his stomach, causing him to bend over in sheer and unknown pain; until she removed it and wedged it into his neck.

Date of Stay: July, 2010
This is a great park for tent camping, but I would avoid it for any kind of big rig. You're limited to 30 amp service, and not all the sites even have septic, and there's no wifi. The sites are cramped, and roads are very narrow; backing in a big trailer is a major headache. It's near Tamiami Trail, so traffic noise is a constant at all hours of the day and night. The historic area is mildly interesting but not worth a special trip. Honestly, I doubt this park would even exist if the Koreshan Society didn't give the state money to keep it around. It's a dismal, nowhere, little park combining the worst elements of wilderness camping and urban living. The state is getting ready to widen the busy road, so you can expect construction and even more traffic noise. Stay closer to Fort Meyers and have a much better experience and be closer to the resort areas.
Date of Stay: June, 2010
Ah, now this is my idea of a really nice RV park. Wide, pull-through spaces that can accommodate even big rigs with no problem. 50 amp service at most sites, with some 30 amp available up by the office. Friendly staff, a fully equipped rec room with a pool table, indoor shuffle board, and ping-pong. The WiFi at this park is actually fast (they just had it fixed). Has a swimming pool, on-site laundry and propane. The showers and bathrooms are like your own private office with a door that locks instead of just a flimsy curtain. The site has new owners who have made major improvements. This is a great RV resort with a nice set-back from the busy road and located just far enough from I-75 that you can barely hear it. Plus the rates are really reasonable. The only con at this campground are that there are no sidewalks adjacent to the park, so if you want to walk, it's the same 1/2 mile circle over and over. An ice machine and vending machines for soda or a camp store would be a big improvement.
Date of Stay: June, 2010
$68 dollars a night to stay at this campground is a total rip. Add to that there's an extra fee for wi-fi. Seemed like a cheap chisel for a park that costs this much. The park itself is nice, big paved spaces, but the neighborhood is definitely in decline, and nighttime security is far from comforting. There's not much to do near the park, you have to drive a long way to the nicer parts of town. Restaurants near the park are the low-end greasy spoon places. The half-naked drunk guy screaming at his wife in the doorway of the cheap hotel in front of the campground was just the perfect touch to top off our stay.
Date of Stay: April, 2010
We usually stick to KOA's where ever we go, but we won't be staying at this one again. The park is small with little shade. Well appointed, but tremendously expensive. $183 for three nights and that was with one night free. On top of that they chiseled us another $8.00 for Wi-Fi. We could have stayed at a hotel for less and got Wi-Fi included. We usually trust the KOA brand but will not be staying here again. This is the first time we've ever been at all tempted to pack up and leave any campground. I can say some nice things about it. The staff is very nice and it's a very kid friendly park, close to Disney World, if you have the $$$. Otherwise avoid this campground until they bring their prices in line with reality and include Wi-Fi. Drive a little farther and save some money.

No Closing Cost Home Equity Line Of Credit Disclosure Information
All rates in this advertisement are subject to change without notice. Maximum loan is limited to 80% of appraised value less consideration of first mortgage. If a first mortgage is in place it must be an institutional loan. An existing Home Equity Line of Credit may be modified and extended one time only. In no event will any advances be made under a Line of Credit beyond the maximum 20 year term from the date of the original mortgage. Any change will be subject to a modification fee of 1.00% of the total Line amount or a minimum fee of $500.00 to be paid by the borrower prior to or at closing.
No Closing Costs simply means the customer is not charged for any of the "closing costs" of the mortgage. Closing costs range from $615.00 to $2,500.00, but are waived. Closing costs may include items such as title and non-escrow fees, credit report fees, appraisal fees, attorney fees and other expenses that are non-recurring (one time) charges at the beginning of the loan process. However, property without a first mortgage is eligible, but title insurance, survey and attorney fees are required at the expense of the borrower. The mortgage loan account must be kept open for a minimum of 3 years to avoid paying closing costs paid to third party vendors on borrower's behalf.
After the 3 year introductory period, the Interest Rate will not exceed the maximum cap of 14.90% or the minimum floor of 3.99%. The current Prime Interest Rate is 4.00% and would be the rate in effect if the following discounted rates were not offered.
Promotional Discounted Rate With Deposit Account Relationship
2.99% APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is a promotional discounted interest rate fixed for the first three years, then adjusting to a variable Prime Interest Rate + 0% thereafter (repriced monthly as Prime changes) on borrowed amounts of $15,000.00 (minimum loan amount) to $300,000.00 (maximum loan amount). 2.99% is the interest rate with a new or existing WSB depository account. If a new account is opened to obtain the lower rate, an Automatic Funds Transfer (AFT) is required.
Promotional Discounted Rate Without Deposit Account Relationship
3.50% APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is a promotional discounted interest rate fixed for the first three years, then adjusting to a variable Prime Interest Rate + 0% thereafter (repriced monthly as Prime changes) on borrowed amounts of $15,000.00 (minimum loan amount) to $300,000.00 (maximum loan amount). 3.50% is the interest rate with no WSB account relationship.
Example 1: $50,000.00 borrowed for 240 months at 2.99% would yield an initial monthly payment of $332.91.
Example 2: $50,000.00 borrowed for 240 months at 3.50% would yield an initial monthly payment of $354.16.
(**The minimum monthly payment amount is $200.00. Any difference between the minimum monthly payment amount and the calculated monthly payment amount will be credited directly to the principal portion of the loan. A balloon payment may occur if a principal balance and/or unpaid interest remain at loan maturity.)
Single wide mobile homes are not eligible. Double wide mobile homes are eligible only if permanently attached to a foundation. A $350.00 Appraisal Fee is initially collected from the customer, but refunded in full at time of loan closing. If loan does not close, the Bank retains the $350.00 appraisal fee. Homeowner's insurance will be required as well as flood insurance for applicable areas. All loans are subject to credit approval.
Approval restrictions may apply.

A weekly examination of the Raiders' ESPN.com Power Ranking:
Preseason: 29 | Last Week: 30 | ESPN.com Power Ranking since 2002
Dennis Green never coached the Raiders, though he was rumored to be a candidate several times over the past decade. So it makes it all the more relevant to trot out his famous line, then, and tweak it a bit: The Raiders are who we thought they were. Except, no one is letting them off the hook.
They were ranked 29th in the preseason and, for the second week in a row, sit at a season-low No. 30. Sounds about right for a team that has lost five straight games and seven of eight and faces the daunting prospect of playing host to a record-setting Peyton Manning in the regular-season finale.
Raiders owner Mark Davis is taking a wait-and-see approach before making any final decisions on the future of coach Dennis Allen, and there is no indication he's leaning one way or the other, despite so much public clamoring for Jon Gruden.
No, Green is not considered a candidate, but how's this for a speculative coaching candidate curveball: Jay Gruden? Then again, Davis would have to let Allen and general manager Reggie McKenzie off the hook first, let alone Terrelle Pryor's agent, Jerome Stanley, who claimed Allen is hoping Pryor fails in the season-ending start.
Go ahead, crown 'em ... the No. 30 team in our Power Rankings.

my collection
Northern California artist Jeffrey Palladini's compelling figurative paintings explore human emotion, relationships, and sensuality through deceptively simple imagery:
"By keeping his figures stark and his backgrounds free of distraction, Palladini allows us a great deal of latitude in interpreting the apparent goings-on – actually, in formulating our own narratives…our curiousity, not sufficiently fulfilled, keeps us riveted, as if something else might happen in each painting," writes Peter Frank, curator at the Riverside Museum in Los Angeles and prominent art critic.
Palladini's lush paint application and brushwork, dramatic composition, and linear and pattern elements promote an emotional, psychosexual intensity, while the structure of the wood panels ground each piece, giving a feeling of permanence and solidity.
Jeffrey Palladini has shown extensively in juried, group, and solo exhibitions around the United States for the last 17 years, and was featured in the Bill Lowe Gallery's March 2007 exhibition held in Atlanta. His work is included in numerous private and public permanent collections.

Every few years, Daniel Day-Lewis delivers himself of a fully imagined performance that dominates the movie screen, awes the audience and often ends with an Oscar. He did it as the writer Christy Brown in My Left Foot in 1989, and then as the oilman Daniel Plainview in 2007's There Will Be Blood. In between, there were Oscar nominations for In the Name of the Father and for Gangs of New York. Day-Lewis now stands on the threshold of doing it all again as the most iconic of all US presidents in Steven Spielberg's Lincoln, which opened in the US last week to a torrent of plaudits and comes here in January. Day-Lewis's Lincoln pads his way through the movie with an uncanny physical and vocal presence, delivering the president's homespun tales, classical allusions and cunning political arguments in a reedy drawl and the occasional flash of steel. It's a huge acting achievement. And it lights up one of the best political movies for years.

On Thursday four robbers executed in Saudi Arabia who dressed in women's clothing to lure their victim and kill him, SIA informs.
Their beheadings bring to 25 the number of people executed in the kingdom this year, according to an AFP tally.
The sentences against the four, all Saudis, were carried out in the eastern town of Qatif, the ministry said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency. They were convicted of luring their Saudi victim, stealing from him and killing him.
The use of the death penalty in such cases is part of an effort to maintain security and "justice", the ministry has said.
Note that over use of the death penalty Saudi Arabia has faced constant international criticism over its human rights record.

I only received this illustration yesterday, but I have already experienced so much joy in trying to unfold its intricate mysteries that I simply couldn't resist sharing it as soon as possible… Enjoy! And bravo to David for this epic creation.
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a
stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in
awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."

Crowd-funding science: great public engagement or ethical quandary?
Crowd-funding has been around for a long time – small payments made by individuals who collectively contribute to a single project, such as disaster relief and political campaigns. But with the spread of the internet, it has become a global affair, and now science is getting in on the act. Rockethub.com, MedStartr.com, sciflies.org, fundageek.com and eurekafund.beta are all matchmaking needy scientists with willing donors. Petridish.org founder Matt Salzberg, Stanford University scientist Dan Madigan, funder Martha Santoro and science and society expert Dr Alice Bell of Imperial College London share their views about this development in science funding as it starts to take off.
Storing carbon by fertilizing oceans
How can an ocean be parched? Victor Smetacek, Professor of Biological Oceanography at the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven, Germany, likens the lack of iron in the oceans to a lack of water on land – our seas often lack this substance, which is crucial for algae to grow.
Although iron is known to stimulate algal growth, it was unknown what happened to these algae. Now, Professor Smetacek and his team have discovered how iron-fertilisation could store carbon in the ocean. After dropping dissolved iron sulphate into a carefully chosen patch of the Southern Ocean, they tracked the resulting algal bloom as it grew, degraded and sank. Eventually, it formed a fluff layer on the ocean floor around 3000m below the surface, potentially locking up carbon for centuries. But does this method hold really promise for reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide? And can it do so without damaging the ocean ecosystem?
Native American population history discussed
Recent research published in the journal Nature has questioned whether the Americas were originally peopled by a single wave of migrants from Siberia, or by multiple streams of people.
The multiple-stream theory stemmed from linguistic research undertaken in the 1980s by Joseph Greenberg. He proposed a controversial theory that the Americas were populated in three waves. This was initially dispelled by genetic studies examining maternal, mitochondrial DNA and paternal, Y chromosome lineages. But the latest survey, examining the entire genomes of 52 Native American and 17 Siberian groups, shows that there were probably at least three waves of migration. Author Professor Andres Ruiz-Linarez from University College London discusses the findings.

Peak Experiences in Self-Actualization: Gifts That Transcend Your Head
Decisions, frustrations, squirrel energy and caffeinated thoughts. I've been in my head too much lately. Check-lists and ringing phones have left my spirit mechanical and my soul longing for poetry, beauty and prose that flows. I wish for living that transcends the business end of it. Please Universe extend some humanity, some oneness, a sprinkle of stillness and a sense of awe.
Self-Actualization and Peak Experiences: What We Live For
Abraham Maslow included peak experiences in his list of characteristics of the self-actualized individual. Self – actualization is the tippy top level of being on Maslow's famous Hierarchy of Needs pyramid.* A self-actualized person has all their basic needs for food, shelter, protection, belongingness and esteem satisfied and rises to an existence that includes the desire to self-fulfill or become everything that one is capable of becoming. Self-actualized individuals have a propensity for peak experiences; intense moments of joy, awe, wonder, oneness and ecstasy. Following such experiences the being is strengthened, renewed, inspired.
Have You Ever Had Your Breath Taken Away By…
Music: The purity of one note sung into the sun that originates in the earth rises through bodies and rests in tears that spring from jaded eyes. Songs reminiscent of long ago scents, settings and the sideways smile of an old lover. Space between lyrics where souls wedge in and expand. Singing without thinking because you are in a good place.
Kindness: Love when there could be bitterness. A hand that reaches for yours when you are mired and distant in your own sadness. An offer of listening with no expectation of repayment. Selflessness that makes you want to be a better person.
Resonance: Stories that powerfully echo your own. To be known. Kinship based on common joy and suffering. Meeting the eyes of others and seeing yourself in them. A connection that makes you a little more brave, less alone. Message received. I feel you. I am you.
The Humanities: Art, music, theater, philosophy, literature, history, religion. Clarity from the ether of imagination manifested into words, melodies, dialogue, prayers. Bold art that whispers to your heart. Literature that befriends and awakens. Weeping from beauty and catharsis. The human condition defined and transcended.
Empathy: A child sobs when he learns of the tormented life of another. Witnessing the belittling of another and never being the same again. An ache felt deeply for another. Raw compassion. What moves us to help.
Stillness: The hours in the morning before the house is up. God, the Universe, your inner voice or your imagination speaking through silence. The moments after you ask for help and the ones after it is received. The pause and quiet beneath the veneer of noise. Where peace and metaphors come from. A calm to be found within and without.
Nature: Retreating to the woods to feel small and infinite at the same time. A non-judgmental sanctuary of light and silence. Hearing morning doves outside your bedroom window the day after your lover moved out. Feeling less alone. Watching with your children as a hawk circles and pierces the edgeless sky.
Thank you for allowing me to indulge in flow and awe. To attempt to put into words the ineffable. To escape my clockwork mind.
I feel much more connected to myself and you.
Do you think introverts have more peak experiences than extroverts? What do you need to reconnect with yourself? Tell me of a peak experience that changed you.
*At least on the most commonly referred to versions of the pyramid. Maslow later added a level about Self-Actualization he called Transcendence.

Most people work Maslow's pyramid by starting at the bottom and working their way up. I think that highly sensitive introverts do the exact opposite: we begin at Transcendence and then work our way down…. (maybe.)
Also, Maslow himself writes that even self-actualised people are unable to sustain that state of self-actualisation constantly. They ebb and flow in and out of that state… that it's cyclical…. like wavelengths with peaks and valleys.
He does state, however, that what sets self-actualised people apart from the rest is that they are generally able to sustain that peak state for longer periods of time than others. And the time in between the peaks is shorter for them when they descend into the valley. They get back up again more quickly than others. And they stay at the top for longer periods of time.
I like this b/c it validates that there's nothing wrong with us when we're in the valley. It's a natural cycle for everyone. But like a hiker, we get better at climbing back up to the top the more we do it. And of course we like to stay up there longer to enjoy the view.
See you at the top?
Brenda KnowlesOctober 28, 2013
You could be right. Sensitive introverts experience awe/splendor/wonder on such a deep level it may be our baseline. Dipping down into the basics (shelter, belonging, sustenance) and rising back to transcendence. It became clear to me about 7 years ago (slow learner) that everything ebbs and flows – the bad and the good. When I am especially mindful I know the low points will pass if I just exercise patience. The rest of the time I let my emotions get the best of me.;)
The sensitivity and deep processing of introverts/HSPs gives life a true richness. Seeing beauty in small things and experiencing awe/ecstasy/wonder so intensely makes it easy to bounce back fairly quickly.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Love discussing Maslow. Definitely see you at the top.:)

This was a perfect read for the moment. I feel disconnected in most categories at the moment due to one…lack of socializing on small or grand scales and two… lack of music and the arts. It takes time to develop the sources for some of the aspects again. The article didn't resonate anything I didn't realize myself right now. It's simply nice to read items that reiterate what I'm already thinking.

This. Such a beautiful post. After being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, undergoing treatment, and suffering the loss of a sister at the same time, those peak experiences are, really, such simple ones for me. Yes … watching a bird circling in the sky. Watching little jimmy lizards (skinks) crawling up a brick wall warmed by the sun. Sitting in the sun in winter. Cool breezes in summer. The sound of magpies carolling. While wishing all beings be happy, I also wish that people would also come to learn that happiness is in the littlest of things, in the journey. It's not something to arrive at. And also the lengths that friends, one in particular, goes to help me. I am going to a weekend mindfulness and medititation retreat at the end of the month, and I know ahead of time, that is the most grounding of peak experiences I can have. Thank you for another lovely post.
brennageeJuly 4, 2013
It's funny because I read your comment after I worked on a post for this week but there are multiple similarities between your message and the one I hope to impart in my next piece. Yes, the little things can be the delight that sustains you. It is about the journey, as over-used as that saying is. I also see gratitude as an element of that satisfaction from small things. Seeing nature and connections as gifts and appreciating them helps your soul soar.
You have a clear understanding of such joy. You have been through difficult times. Your eyes and heart are open.
Have the best experience at your meditation retreat. Thank you for your kind and thoughtful comment. I always appreciate your insight.

Didn't just 'like' this post, Brenna. Totally loved it. The information you add at the end about Maslow identifying 'transcendence' as being an even higher peak than 'self-actualisation' is incredibly important for devotees of Maslow.
brennageeApril 3, 2012
Thank you! Maslow's humanism fascinates me. I intend to look further into the transcendence piece he included later in his work/career. There is so much more than transactional living.

Nursery Reveal
As I mentioned on Monday, I've got nursery photos for you for one of the most fun clients I've ever had the pleasure of working with.
It all began with an e-mail from my friend, Katie, who I also went to college with. Katie and I were sorority sisters and among other things, we share a love for fashion. We went to a small liberal arts college in a rural Washington town; out of sea of hiking performance gear, Katie and I were little misfits in head to toe J. Crew ensembles. Katie and her twin sister, Regan, share a passion for fashion and have the most tempting fashion blog that I know of: Cardigans and Couture. It's a must read.
Anyway, back to the e-mail. Katie asked if I would help with her nursery. She wanted, gingham, floral and a map dress. I couldn't respond "Yes, please" fast enough.
Katie also partnered with The Container Store who worked their organizational magic for all the itty bitty girl clothes.
Without further ado – the reveal…
Here you see where the gingham and map dress come to play. Katie wanted a navy and white gingham and I was completely on board. I love that we paired it with a green paper dress. Katie chose this particular dress because she has a love for good penmanship.
To the left of the crib, is this gorgeous bone inlay dresser with a matching diaper changing pad from Restoration Hardware. I don't have a good shot of it closed but here you can see it with all of it's amazing organizational pieces.
And now for the floral mix into the room. Love, love, love how these drapes came out…
We went for custom drapes and chose a waverly fabric – "Candid Moment Gardenia." I love the bold colors but also the sophisticated feel to the fabric so it can grow with the sweet little baby. I pulled the pink from a flower in the fabric in the glider from Ballard Designs.
I wanted to add a touch of masculinity to counter balance the drapes and glider so I went with the Les Touches pillow in brown, which also picked up the brown in the branches of the drape fabric. There is also hints of yellow in the fabric and so the geometric rug by Dash and Albert has a yellow undertone that tied in with that.
Next to the glider is the cutest side table in the world. And it's Target, people. Everyone pretty much needs it in their lives. The little blue table lamp is also from Target and a fun tie in to a blue hummingbird in the fabric.
Also these container store bins could not be more perfect with the drapes!
And perhaps most important of all, pink hunter boots for the future fashionista…
This was such a pleasure to work on! Katie's baby arrives next week. Eeeek!!
Head on over to Katie's blog where she has links to all the pieces in the room.
Life Updates
When things are quiet around this blog, it usually means that life is too loud elsewhere. There has been a lot of commotion, transitioning and coping. All is good and I certainly see my blessings. But, being in my third trimester with two very little ones to take care of, has been exhausting. Also, our country's current tragic events have been draining as I grapple with how I can contribute to creating a more just, loving and safe society.
From the past two pregnancies, I knew that I would be exhausted at the end of pregnancy so I upped my hours with my sitter in preparation. Unfortunately, after two weeks of more help around the house, the girls got sick and so I didn't have my sitter come that week. The following week our sitter had hernia surgery and she has been out for the past three weeks recuperating. We're thankful the surgery went well and we are looking forward to her return in a week.
But it's been a lot of kid time and little to no design or blogging time.
Good thing they're cute. Last week, I ordered in the big guns – "daddy". Graham took the week off and I absolutely loved having non princess conversations and the extra help.
We even snuck off to Napa for a family vacation that avoided any sort of airplane or major travel time but still felt like a world away. We rented a home through Air B n B and I'm now completely convinced this is the way to travel with kids. You get your own kitchen, multiple bedrooms and a backyard.
On the design front, one of my favorite nurseries that I've ever designed has been photographed and I'll be able to feature on the blog later this week. Here is a sneak peek.
I have been working with the ultra stylish Katie of the chic blog Cardigans and Couture. She is due in about a week with her baby girl so it's a very exciting time for her. Today, Katie posted the four different nursery room options that I originally sent to her before she chose the direction that we went in. I'd love for you to pop over to her blog to see it. And stay tuned for the big reveal of her nursery later this week!
Bora Bora Bridal Bash
When I was seven years old, my parents bought a beach house just down the road from where they first met as teenagers. My mom's brother lives in the same beach town as well and so the new house meant lots of extended family time.
The beach house brought on boogie boarding, playing volleyball and riding bikes to the candy store. Summers were spent skipping from one beach activity to the next with my brothers and cousins. A fast and furious bond grew between my cousins and I.
Fast forward 25 years later, when I was pregnant with Josie and working full time, I knew I needed to bring on someone to help me out with my design business. Allie, my cousin, was my first and only call. Not only did we understand each other through and through – she's the most stylish lady I know – by far. Without hesitation, she packed her bags and moved to the city to work with me.
That was the best time of working for me. Not only could we collaborate creatively but we also could just sit around and laugh, cry or chit chat together.
Soon after Allie's move to SF, she met a guy; they fell in love, he popped the question and now wedding bells will be ringing in August. But before marriage comes the wedding shower.
My mom and I wanted to host a shower for Allie that was special to her and showered her in love. We thought the beach house where we ran around as little kids was the perfect setting.
Allie requested a honeymoon themed shower. And before she even showed me a glimpse of her pinterest page, I knew exactly what she was envisioning.
Then…the pressure was on. I went ahead with something I rarely, rarely do and took out my sewing machine, iron and hot glue gun. I made some table toppers and got to work on her "Bora Bora Bridal Bash"
Invites by Love Lucy Design on ETSY
Here's how it all turned out…
The photos show thick fog, but the moments the guests arrived, the fog receded to the ocean and we had nothing but blue skies.
This is what the weather looked like the day before the party when we were doing the dry run to make sure everything worked…
We did a mixture of high cocktail tables under the verandah for shade –
And then lower tables on the deck along wooden benches looking out at the ocean
For the tabletoppers, I used palm leave fabric with pink or white pom pom trim and rope fabric with pink or white pom pom trim (all available at JoAnn's Fabrics).
The flowers were by Susie's Flowers in Aptos and they were gorgeous.
Susie also made a flower crown for the gorgeous bride in theme with the party's flowers.
As a final surprise to my cousin, we put a teepee on the beach and decorated it in Bora Bora theme. Because there are teepees all over Bora Bora? Probably not. But I know Allie loves a good teepee moment…
And in my eyes, a good teepee moment includes a couple of plastic hot pink flamingos.
All in all, it was such a fun day with so many fabulous ladies!!
Next up, the big day! Woo hoo!!
Roman Shade Trim Options
Thank you so much for your comments and sharing of my One Room Challenge project. They absolutely made my day and my entire weekend, frankly.
I'm now jumping from one home design project to the next. The nursery.
As a refresher here is the plan so far –
The Katie Ridder Beetlecat wallpaper has been ordered; I custom colored it so that the flags and sail outline are actually red instead of pink. The Quadrille zig zag fabric is sitting in my living room and ready to be made into Roman Shades. Today my seamstress will be over to measure the windows and get to work on the shades.
Here is where today's decision comes in. I'm going to do a blue grosgrain tape that matches the background of the blue in the paper on the shade. So how to position the tape.
Option A would be to just put it along the bottom like how Lauren Nelson did in this office
Option B would be three sided with the taping inset on the shade as Erin Gates did in this girls room
Option C would be to do the taping inset but let it criss cross at the ends like this boy's room from the Salt Lake City Parade of Homes
ORC – Patio Reveal Day
Calling It Home's One Room Challenge, where you decorate one room in six weeks from start to finish, is like having a newborn. Those first six sleep deprived weeks are both joyful, tearful, blissful and insane. And then the baby starts sleeping and you forget about those weeks and you want to do it all over again and again. At least that's what happens to me.
I'm pregnant with my third child so that could be why the analogy feels so fitting. Well at the end of week six, I'm exhausted and I could use a drink that isn't a "mocktail."
For those allowed cocktails, let me show you our new favorite spot for drinks and dinner. Our revamped patio…
And here is what it looked like six weeks ago…
Goodbye to that unused, unattractive table and chairs that the previous owner of our home just left behind. Hello to the custom Christopher Farr Cloth cushions, Serena and Lily pillows, bench handmade by my husband, Dash and Albert Rug, Turf clad coffee table, vintage faux bamboo chairs and a vintage elephant side table. Each of these pieces makes me super happy.
Isn't that bench amazing?! I'm super proud of my husband's secret woodworking skills. He should never have revealed his skills because now I'm constantly coming up with projects for him.
It's hard to pick a winner but I must say this fabric makes me the happiest of them all. I've been dreaming of having it in my home for the past eight years when I first saw it in Australian Vogue. It didn't hurt that my mom had the left over fabric from the One Room Challenge that I did four times ago of her pool house. I took the left over fabric from her sofa. Thanks mom!
Back to the project this time around. In addition to my favorite Christopher Far Cloth Fabric, I also loved the Montecito pillow from Serena and Lily. It's the softest outdoor pillow I have ever felt. I have no idea how they pulled it off.
The other loves are the grass ottoman that I got at the Filoli Gardens boutique. It's a beautiful local garden that I visit often with my girls and for month's on end, I would walk by that grass ottoman and wish for it to be mine. They have a once a year sale and I grabbed it faster than you can say, "sold sweetie."
Those vintage bamboo chairs I bought about eight years ago at a thrift store for $40. I sprayed them in an outdoor spray paint and we'll see how long they last outdoors. We don't have a spot for them indoors.
Remember New York Seltzer? I thought they went to the land of Tab. I drank one after the shoot and it was delicious – absolutely packed with sugar but delicious. Also, that flower looks straight out of a cartoon but I assure you it's a real peony.
Down those steps comes our newly revamped bar/bar-b-que area…
As a refresher, here is what it looked like six weeks ago…
They say the heart of the home is the kitchen, for us it's our bar-b-que. We use this spot all the time from May through October. And I have HATED the red chipped tile since we moved in two years ago.I absolutely love the new tile and I'm so happy that we decided to tile the entire bar. What a difference!
I wanted an antique blue/white tile to go with our 1936 spanish colonial home. But sometimes "wants" run a couple hundred a square foot. Enter this faux antique from Wayfair tile for $5.65 sq/ft!
We nearly cheaped out and didn't fully tile the back but I'm thrilled we went the extra mile. That hole to the right will be getting a refrigerator and that brick area is where a wood burning fire pit goes.
That Salamat Designs light, hanging over the bar, was a battle to get with my husband; we tried out three different lights until we landed on that one – the best one! It was my top choice all along. Luckily for me, Salamat Designs is based out of San Francisco and they let me come to their warehouse earlier this week to get the light. It's actually only up by fishing wire right now. Electrician will be out next week – because it truly has only been six weeks.
Moving right along, just beyond the bar is a large farmhouse table that my husband also built. We didn't do any changes to it but I did put together a tablescape. PS – I cut that palm frond from our own back yard!
I tried to keep the tablesetting as simple as possible which is tough for a maximalist like me.
Those flower pots are some of my favorites ever for tablescapes; they were a gift from my mom.
You can see that just beyond the table sit two green wicker chairs that are positioned to look out on the lawn.
I just had new cushions made for the green chairs. Even though the least was done here, this is where I spend most of my time, sitting and watching the girls run on the lawn.
It's all very new but I can already say that we use it all the time.
Some find a spot to dance
Some lounge on it like little queens.
It's a pretty awesome spot. I'm not going to lie. Now to invite people over.
I encourage you to go check out all the participants and their hard work in the One Room Challenge at Linda's blog, here.
ORC: Shit Happens
Honestly, I'm not the hugest fan of rugs used outdoors. But I'm even less of a fan of my outdoor hardscape. So, I got this rug from Dash and Albert for our patio lounge area.
It arrived during nap time this past Saturday which was a perfect opportunity to lay it out and to debate wether or not to keep it.
Then, my 20 month old and three year old woke up and I moved on.
It was a hot day and so naturally my girls got naked because that's what kids do. Right?
The number one unsolicited parenting advice I receive is to potty train in the summer so that your kids can run around naked. Graham suggested we take the diaper off our twenty month old so we can "potty train" her. To which I replied, "what if she poos?" to which he responded "I'll clean it up" to which I quickly agreed.
We were all four roaming around outside doing our own things when we hear our three year old exclaim, "who pooed on the rug?!"
I ran to the rug and sure enough there was poo, without question, supplied by our 20 month old. And she successfully landed 100% on the rug; there was no half-assing it.
Graham was stuck on clean up duty. He did a very thorough job while the girls and I stood back and watched. Then we flipped the rug over.
So guess what? We're keeping the rug. But, the good news is that I like it!
See the full monty (of the rug, not my daughter) next week. Until then, here are a few sneak peeks in whats to come…
check out the other participants here at Calling it Home.
Baby Boy Nursery Plans
Thank you so much for the comments and phone calls after Gene's post. It was so very healing to hear from you and I'm glad that the story of his life could touch so many.
Last week, Graham and I went and checked in on our baby boy with the 20 week ultrasound. Thankfully, all is looking good with him. So, I asked the Dr. if I could start working on the nursery and she said yes. Dr's orders!
The baby will be going into Grace's room and Gracie will be moving in with Josie.
Most everything will remain the same – carpet, crib, glider, lighting, art. I just want to add a few things that make it feel more boy.
When we found out we were having a boy, Graham came home so excited with a nursery theme: Sports!! To which I laughed and said I just couldn't do a chic sports nursery. He tried to claim that it would be a fun challenge for me. Nope.
I got to looking through schemes and we came up with a compromise. A room in Golden State Warriors colors. Doesn't this room just scream Warriors to you?
I'd like to do Katie Ridder's wallpaper – Beetlecat on three of the four walls and then Quadrille's zig zag as Roman shades and a bit more boy bedding. It got Graham's approval. Items have already started arriving and I like how the scheme is coming together…
Go Warriors!!
PS – Don't feel sorry for Graham because in like ten short years, our boy will likely cover his room in sports posters and will absolutely live in those sports jerseys. So really this is my five minutes of a "sports themed" room before it all goes very full on Steph Curry.

A place that conjures up "life styles of the rich and famous", but the harsh reality is Palm Springs is the new Southwestern United States ghetto. The weather is hot and miserable eight months out of the year. The other four months are blowing sand. The Coachella Valley. is rift with over-development and downtown P.S. is no exception vacant store fronts etc. The freeway into the Coachella Valley is littered with garbage which shows the amount of pride residents have in their community. This is no surprise since the area is full of tweekers and crime. Famous for its many golf courses: aka: prison resorts to keep said tweeker rift raft out while projecting a resort lifestyle reminiscent of a Japanese interment camp.
I went to Palm Springs and there was nothing to do. Unless one like to get tweeked, play golf and or get "rear ended."

A town located about 100 miles east of Los Angeles, in the desert. It's located in the coachella valley with beautiful Mt. San Jacinto as it's back drop. It's a play ground for the rich and famous, a green luxurious oasis in the desert. With numerous golf courses, pools, palm trees, great shopping, a beautiful downtown area with a star walk with quaint shops and fine dining.
Palm Springs is a green oasis in the desert.

Item Specifications...
Do you ever wish that you knew some very basic things about God when you first committed your life to Him? This book is an exposition into how the truth and power of the Word of God can transform the lives of the people who believe in Jesus Christ. Do you know that: God is the ultimate symbol of trust and commitment to all who need to depend on someone. There is a far-reaching benefit from godliness that cannot be obtained apart from faith, because faith in God through Christ Jesus is a firm foundation, upon which we who believe can truly rest. Faith gives substance to something that does not exist physically, but can be conceived in our hearts, spoken about, and believed in. The believer cannot pursue purpose without gaining a deep and life-changing revelation of his identity in Christ Jesus. This book is worth reading. Read more. A Christian for more than 15 years, Robert Odam has studied basic Christian growth, taught Bible study classes, and designed and directed new converts classes. His book is based on subjects he personally developed and taught in his current church when he was superintendent of Bible study classes. He believes the topics in this book are as relevant today as ever-and it will continue to be as long as there are more Christians coming to God. Robert Odam is currently a minister in his church in Crystal, Minnesota. Dr. Robert Odam is also a full time Family Practice doctor who works out of a medical clinic in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Sound propagation in a shallow sea is considered in the presence of a packet of intense internal waves. It is shown that horizontal refraction caused by these packets can lead to noticeable changes in the spectrum and spatial intensity distribution of a signal propagating approximately parallel to the wave fronts of internal wave packets.

Chapter 6
Monteverde Cottage — Braganza, Portugal — June, Present Day
At the first moment that she could, Adriana Paulos took a cautious step past her picket-fence. The wind had picked up slightly and the sunlight suddenly had a more smothered look about it that she did not like at all. Was she nervous? Oh, yes, she was nervous. She was very nervous in fact. However, this did not stop her from continuing with her the day and, one-by-one, check off different tasks that she needed to do on her planned itinerary.
In her head she went over a mental checklist of things to do...and yet as she was doing that very action, there was a certain cold-bloodedness about the inhuman mechanical reaction that she was having.
She was trying to ignore the fear...the very incumbent thought came to the forefront of her mind. What was she afraid of exactly? She didn't know yet.

On the brick of a new year...Mature
From the bathroom to the bedroom , a walk that took less than 3 metres but it seemed to take days...
On her body the sense of well spend hours of discovery and laughter. The smell of both of them still lingered on herself as she opened her eyes, and slowly brought her hand to the face lying next to her.
The first , the second, the third , the forth, all thru this days he had been so much more than she expected, and she had some expectations where he was concerned, of friendship and just not this...
She didn`t even knew what this was but since that night a week ago she hadn`t really tought much as she had felt.
The man had some stamina, and ideas but above all he was kinda suprising in a good way.
A hand that fells the body that she had kissed and played with, that she had welcomed within herself not long ago, she was exausted and yet she felt so alive, like she could put the computer on and post like H... on fire, on the other hand with such company maybe the posting of stories could wait.
She got up and collecting the robe discarded on the floor she goes to the window and takes the phone with her .
She dials room service and waits for the call to be put thru.
" Good evening, room service how can i be of assistance ?"
" Happy new year to you also , can i have two beers delivered to the suite 105 , please. And whatever you still have available to eat at this hour. Charge to the room, thank you..."
As she puts the phone down , a smile is present in her eyes she knows he will like the beer detail. Outside the window she can see the blinking lights, she knows the air is quite cold aldough she can`t feel from here, and she closes her eyes and thinks of a wish on this night of all nigths.
A presence behind her back , arms that had pullled her in so many times, hands that had touch, a body now know to her as much as her self, the eyes stay close, as he asks.
" Was that for me ? "
" Wich one? The beer or the wish ? "
" Both ? "
Lips that are already roaming near her neck, before she goes under the spell of sex, she answer...
" Yes. "
" Humm..."

Maple Yacon Syrup For Weight Loss, Constipation- Pros and Cons
Yacon syrup and maple syrup are both used for weight loss. This article discusses the pros and cons.
Natural syrups for weight loss work by speeding up your metabolic rate. Maple syrup has been used by quite a few persons, including pop singer Beyonce, who claims that it has helped her to shed pounds.
This plan works by cutting back the amount of calories that you consume on a daily basis. That is important for people with certain chronic illnesses. People who are on the maple syrup diet undergo a type of fasting and cannot eat the high calorie dressings and foods that they would normally enjoy.
Fasting diets are not good for people or animals because they force the body to go into starvation mode. While this may help you to lose some weight, your body actually slows down your metabolic rate in order to conserve on resources. This means that you lose weight at a much slower rate than you would if your metabolism were at its normal level. This works even with animals that are over their optimal weight.
Yacon Syrup for Constipation
Yacon syrup has also been found to be beneficial for people who are constipated. Individuals who used yacon syrup for weight loss found that this was one side effect that benefited them. The yacon syrup adds extra bulk to stool. That also makes it less likely that an individual will become constipated.
How Yacon Syrup Benefits More Than Weight Loss
Use Maple Syrup and Yacon Syrup for Fast Weight Loss
The maple syrup diet only works in the short term. If you need to lose a few pounds in order to fit into a dress that you will wear to a special event, it might help you to achieve your goal. Basically, you are not eating anything, so you will lose weight. However, it is not healthy. If you plan to keep on losing weight over several months you will have to rely on a method of weight loss that is sustainable.
The maple syrup cleanse should only be used for about ten days. This is because when you use it, your body does not get enough nutrients to sustain it in the long term. You are also likely to experience side effects such as headaches, mood swings and constant hunger while you are on this plan. It takes a tremendous amount of mental strength to stay on a diet such as this for ten days and the effects are not usually lasting.
You can use Yacon syrup for weight loss if you hope to achieve a specific weight loss goal and maintain that weight for a long time. This diet works because the syrup actually speeds up your metabolism. This means that you burn calories faster than you would if you were not taking it. It helps you to lose weight even without going to the gym but if you exercise you will experience more benefits.
Yacon syrup where to buy
People enjoy this sweet syrup as a sugar substitute because it tastes good and does not remind them of medicine. You can also eat nutritious food such as proteins, fruits and vegetables when you are using this for weight loss. It is not hard to take the required dosage every day but you should be careful not to exceed the amount that is recommended.

Report: Mansfield Town 1 Rovers 3
Rovers booked their place in the second round of the EFL Cup after defeating Mansfield Town 3-1 at the One Call Stadium.
Anthony Stokes, who grabbed Rovers' goal at the weekend, opened the scoring on 29 minutes, latching onto Danny Graham's flick to fire home.
But the home side hit back moments into the second half when Mitchell Rose levelled with a back post header.
However Rovers' response was emphatic as they scored two goals in as many minutes. Shane Duffy with a towering header, before Stokes grabbed his second from close-range.
Rovers controlled proceedings in the closing stages and should have scored more, Stokes coming close to a hat-trick with a shot that crashed off the crossbar.
Banana-skin avoided, Rovers can look forward to the second round draw tomorrow evening.
Owen Coyle made five changes from the side that faced Norwich City on the opening day of the season for the first round clash.
All three substitutes who impressed on Saturday; Gordon Greer, Anthony Stokes and Jack Byrne, came into the starting line-up, whilst Craig Conway and Stephen Hendrie also started at the One Call Stadium.
After the below par performance at Ewood at the weekend, Rovers were eager to impress, but a slack backpass almost proved costly inside two minutes.
Shane Duffy's intended ball to Jason Steele was easily intercepted by CJ Hamilton, but the Stags striker fired wide when well placed.
Rovers responded well with Byrne lively in midfield. His sixth minute run saw the Irishman feed Ben Marshall, but Scott Shearer in the Mansfield goal saved superbly low to his right.
Darragh Lenihan shot straight into the arms of Shearer soon afterwards, whilst Chris Clements fired wide for the home side.
Then Hamilton got the better of Greer in the area, but he too couldn't test Steele. A free-kick from Clements soon after saw the Rovers keeper scramble across his line to thankfully see the ball go the wrong side of the upright.
But just ahead of the half hour mark it was Rovers who broke the deadlock. Hendrie played a ball up to Danny Graham and he fed Stokes who found the bottom corner of the net via a deflection.
It was the Republic of Ireland international's second goal in successive matches for his new club.
That Rovers goal took the sting out of the game, and they weren't unduly troubled in the remaining minutes of the first half.
But despite looking largely comfortable in the opening 45, it took the Stags just two minutes into the second half to get back on level terms.
A Mal Benning cross from the left was flicked on in the centre and Mitchell Rose sent a looping header into the top corner of Steele's goal.
But the Rovers response was swift and emphatic as they plundered two goals in as many minutes to restore and then stretch their advantage.
After a Stokes shot had deflected for a corner, Conway took the kick from the right and his delivery picked out Duffy who headed beyond Shearer put Rovers back in front.
Then on 55 Rovers made it 3-1 with another cross from the right, this time it was Marshall with the inswinger, Stokes grabbing his second of the game with a near post header.
Rovers could have had further goals as they enjoyed a purple patch of play. Greer saw a goalbound header blocked in the six-yard box, whilst after Graham had chased a ball over the top, Marshall saw his effort saved.
Both sides made changes in the closing stages as Liam Feeney replaced Craig Conway and Connor Mahoney came on for Danny Graham. Whilst the Stags brought on Matt Green and Danny Rose who had both scored at the weekend.
But Rovers did well to quell any further danger, only wayward efforts from distance and a Benning free-kick that Steele held well came their way.
The final minute saw Stokes the width of the woodwork away from claiming the perfect hat-trick, latching onto a ball over the top, the forward fired left-footed, only to see the ball crash down off the crossbar and away.
There were further Rovers chances as the clock ticked towards full time, but Feeney and Byrne both saw low shots saved, but they were already safely through to round two of the competition.
Shearer, Bennett, Benning, Collins (c), Chapman, Clements (sub Hakeem 75 mins), Baxendale (sub D. Rose 70 mins), M. Rose, Hamilton (sub Green 70 mins), Hemmings.
Subs not used: Jensen (GK), Taft, Hurst, McGuire.
Goals: M. Rose 48 mins.
Booked: None.

If you are looking for limousine for your party, your girl or something else you should call in Gagopa Service) Thanks them for awesome weekend) It was my first time when I use limousine service and I do not regret it) I recommend Gagopa)
California Rent A Car 1 ReviewsThe best for moving locally
I have used California car rental service a few times when moving locally. In addition to having several truck sizes for a reasonable price, they also rent pick up trucks for smaller moves. They rent by the day, making it extremely affordable, and if it is a close move, the fuel costs shouldn't be too high. If you have people to help you move, and simply need a truck for transport, this is the company to go with.
