How To Set Goals During Recovery
For many people setting goals makes achieving things a lot easier. Setting goals can help focus one's energy and motivation, and make dreams more achievable. A person can get a clearer idea of what steps they need to take and how much of themselves they need to devote in order to achieve their dreams.
Setting goals is an important topic for someone in recovery because it's a necessary part of making progress and transforming one's life after years of addiction or alcoholism.
Each person will have their own ideas about what goals they want to achieve in recovery. This is why it's important to not compare yourself to others when deciding what goals you want to work on. Some common goals that you may want to work on include,
-Working on overcoming personality defects that are self destructive, including impulsiveness, negative self talk, or self gratifying behavior.
-Finding emotional sobriety, or the ability to experience feelings without having them affect behavior or become overwhelming. Not having to escape from unpleasant feelings is another big part of achieving emotional sobriety.
-Rebuilding damaged relationships if possible. Also, learning new skills to foster and create new, positive relationships.
-Finding a general purpose in life, either through a career, hobby, or other focus.
-Rebuilding any other areas that were damaged by addiction. This could be a career, family, relationships, or creative endeavors.
Important things to remember when making goals in recovery.
A goal is something to aim for. It gives a person a sense of purpose in life, which is very important for someone recovering from addiction. Setting goals also builds a sense of responsibility and self worth in a person.
Suddenly, a person can realize they have a lot more control over the direction their life takes than they previously thought. Goals make recovery into a process that is always changing, rather than an event. This means that simply deciding to get sober isn't enough and that hard work and dedication is necessary to really make progress.
The importance of failure.
Having a realistic attitude toward goal setting will make all the difference in recovery, especially when it comes to failure. A person will inevitably face setbacks and even total failure during their recovery. Looking at these events as opportunities to grow, or signs that you need to change course, make them important milestones. Remember, there is not a single person in recovery who hasn't faced some kind of failure or setback.
Other things to consider.
-Be realistic about your goals. Break them up into smaller goals if necessary and focus on each part at a time.
-Try to set goals that can be achieved in the near future. This makes it harder to get distracted or discouraged. You'll see progress sooner and feel strong enough to take on the next goal.
-Everyone has a different strategy for achieving their goals. Find the right one for you and stop comparing yourself to others.
-A goal should focus on something you want to change in yourself. You should never attempt to change another person's behavior or opinion.
-Be sure to set goals for changes you want to make, not changes that only serve to satisfy other people.
-It's okay to ask for help when you need it.
-Keep goals realistic and attainable, or else you are only setting yourself up for failure and disappointment.
-Try not to identify with your goals. Your whole sense of self esteem shouldn't be tied up with achieving things. Know that you are a strong and valuable person even if you fail.

The breakneck timetable of the Israeli prime minister, Ehud Barak, for reaching a peace accord with the Palestinians suffered its first setback yesterday. The much-heralded safe passage route, linking the Gaza Strip with the West Bank, failed to open on schedule after the two sides failed to reach an agreement.
Israeli rightwingers picket the Burger King restaurant in the centre of Jerusalem, watched by Israeli police, as the row continues over the fast food chain's decision to cuts its ties with a West Bank restaurant.
Within the space of six months President Bill Clinton and other world leaders have attended the funerals of two buttresses of the west's relations with the Middle East and the Islamic world.
Israel's new prime minister, Ehud Barak, and the Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat, held their first summit meeting yesterday and strongly affirmed their shared commitment to ending a century of conflict between their peoples.
The new Israeli prime minister, Ehud Barak, ended seven weeks of political limbo yesterday with an effusive peace speech reminiscent of the late Yitzhak Rabin at the swearing-in of his cabinet, drawn from a relatively dovish coalition.
The Syrian president, Hafez al-Assad, arrived in Moscow unexpectedly yesterday for a visit likely to be frowned on by Israel as the Middle East peace process shows its first real signs of life in three years.
Nine hundred years after the first crusaders reached Jerusalem on a mission to free the Holy City from Islamic control, massacring tens of thousands of Jews and Muslims in the process, a second wave of western Christians arrives today with a very different purpose - to apologise for the actions of their bloodthirsty forebears.
The cherry season is in full swing and the trees at Kibbutz El-Rom are weighed down with fruit. The grapevines are budding and the apples in the orchard are ripening. It is a time of plenty and yet for these 300 Jewish settlers, living only a mile from the ceasefire line with Syria, there has never been such uncertainty.
The Israeli government, fearful that a rush of pilgrims marking the new millennium next year will turn Christendom's holiest shrine into a deathtrap, is putting pressure on the religious orders that control it to open a new emergency exit.
Israel's prime minister-elect, Ehud Barak, yesterday announced an audacious plan to link the Palestinian-controlled Gaza Strip and the West Bank with an enormous bridge.
Thirty years after it sank on its maiden voyage with the loss of 69 lives, Israel's first submarine has been found by an American marine salvage team on the sea-bed between Crete and Cyprus, solving one of the country's greatest military riddles.
It's Eurovision time again, the last of this millennium, and Jerusalem plays host tonight to a show with a global audience of 100m but which religious Jewish residents of the holy city claim has brought Sodom and Gomorrah to their doorsteps.
The South Lebanese Army, Israel's militia ally on its northern border, is pulling back its soldiers: the move is seen as signaling Israel's intention to withdraw its own troops from the 'security zone' in southern Lebanon.
Israel's prime minister-elect, Ehud Barak, began talks with political parties to build a broad coalition government yesterday after his victory in last week's election. He has 45 days to accomplish the task and is clearly in no hurry.

Beijing (AFP) Sept 12, 2014
The mother of a Briton whose murder led to the downfall of high-flying Chinese politician Bo Xilai has hit out at Beijing for failing to pay compensation over his death, saying it left a "stain" on China's reputation.
Neil Heywood was found dead in a hotel room in the southwestern Chinese mega-city of Chongqing in November 2011. Bo's wife Gu Kailai was convicted of the murder while the former political star's own trial ruled he acted to suppress a probe into the killing.
Heywood had been close to Bo and his family, but Gu's 2012 trial heard that she and the businessman had fallen out after a deal went sour.
Bo, once one of the Communist Party's elite 25-member Politburo, was convicted of bribery, embezzlement and abuse of power and sentenced to life in prison last September after a trial that exposed murky machinations, high-living and homicide in his inner circle.
In a statement to The Wall Street Journal on Thursday, Heywood's mother Ann said she had been assured by Chinese authorities that she and her family had a right to compensation, but had not received anything.
Authorities had told her she could seek compensation in Chinese courts. "This is absurd," she said.
"As is well known, China does not enjoy the rule of law: the Chinese courts and the whole legal process are controlled by the Communist Party."
Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said she was "not aware of the specifics" when asked about Heywood's statement at a regular briefing on Friday.
"But I would like to point out that China is a country governed by the rule of law," Hua said.
Personal injury was a civil matter, she added, and the parties could reach a settlement between themselves or file an action in court.
- 'Public outrage' -
In her statement, Heywood questioned whether Beijing's "inertia and evasiveness" might be related to "factional or personal struggles" or Gu's relationships "with past and present members of the Chinese leadership".
Her son's murder and Chinese authorities' subsequent conduct were "a stain on the reputation of a great country and provide chilling evidence of the dangers of doing business in today's China," she added.
She posited an analogy reversing the nationalities, where the "well-known wife of a successful and ambitious member of the British cabinet has befriended a Chinese businessman who is living in London".
"When, years later, the friendship sours, she murders the businessman by poisoning. Her husband, the cabinet minister, assisted by the commissioner of the Metropolitan Police and a number of his senior deputies, conspires to cover up the murder."
In such a case she said, "one can be certain that the Chinese authorities would express public outrage, would hold the British government to account and would demand appropriate compensation for the family's loss".
Besides his mother, Heywood is survived by a wife and two children.
Bo, once considered a candidate for the Politburo Standing Committee -- China's most powerful body -- was a populist but divisive figure, whose "red revival" policies when he ran Chongqing raised worries in some quarters over his leftist bent.

A perfect base for a short stay in Rotterdam
Michael Hall, Sidcup, Kent
The Hilton is just a short walk from Rotterdam Central Station and an overall excellent location. Rooms were very comfortable and the buffet breakfast excellent. The bar service during the evening could have been better but otherwise a first class stay.
The best thing about my stay was ...
Convenience and comfort.

Review of 'HILTON ROTTERDAM'
Vince Wilson, Bedford
The Hilton Rotterdam is a high quality hotel, conveniently situated about 5 minutes walk away from the Central station. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room well appointed, clean and comfortable. Good breakfast. The Wireless internet in my room was not working but the ethernet connection was fine -so absolutely no complaints- and the room rate through Alpharooms was fantastic!


text: This family-run hotel provided my group with great service during our recent stay. Rooms were clean and reminded me of summer camp because of the dark wooden paneling. The best feature of the hotel is the upstairs balcony filled with hammocks. This is the perfect place to relax or take an afternoon nap when the heat/humidity makes it miserable to... More

The Sujiawei Hakka Village Tourism Zone is a must for tourists who are interested in the Hakka culture and customs.
Bordering Dongjiang River in the north and Jiushe River in the south, the village is located in the Heshui Township, 26km away from the city of Heyuan.
Today the village is described as a "picturesque village in south china", featuring old trees and houses, wild lands, bamboos and fresh air. Also it has a profound cultural history and is said to be the habitat of descendants of Su Shi, who also known as Su Dongpo, a famous Chinese literate in Northern Song Dynasty. Hence All people living in the village now are surnamed "Su".
It also provides some performances for travelers to get a better known of Hakka culture such as their wedding customs. You can take part in the producing lines of making bean curd, wine or oil; or enjoy yourself in activities like fishing, swimming and boating.
The first spot we encounter is the Yingqing Bridge, where has a panoramic view of Sujiawei. The bridge is a place to welcome all families, relatives and friends.
Here is purple perilla park. The purple perilla can be used as medicine to cure cold, or purple dye or cooking. The origin of this park is as follows: one day one of Su Shi's offspring passed by this place, he dreamed five old men pointed a big tree and told him it is perilla tree. When he woke up, he found this place is full of perilla, and the environment is quite beautiful, so he thought the old men would like he move the Su clan here. So after he came back, he always mentioned this dream to his late generations. To fulfill his this dream, over 700 years ago, the Su clan moved here and Sujiawei started its story.
From this purple perilla park to Pool lips estate, is gallery of Hakka villages gender culture, which shows the Hakka people's moral ideas and customs, they think everything has two opposite extremes like negative and positive. In Hakka dialect, have a boy baby is named "tian deng", the same pronunciation as "add a lantern". So in Chinese lantern festival, any family which has a new boy baby will hang a big lantern in their ancestors' shrine.
Later we will visit Sugong Shrine Yongsi Hall, Guanghua hall, Su school and Yi Jiang temple. You may find the Hakka architecture is well preserved here. These ancient buildings are square flat houses with dark blue bricks and roof tiles that belong to the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The oldest house, Yongsi Hall, was built in 1481 in memory of Su Dongshan, the eighth-generation descendant of Su Dongpo and as a place for the villagers to worship their ancestors and discuss important affairs.
Now we walk along the Dongjiang river and enjoy the Hakka folk music. At the riverside you see bamboo everywhere. Su Dongpo loved bamboo, he once said "I can eat without meat, but I can not live without bamboo. No meat to eat only makes me thin; but live without bamboo makes me vulgar"!
Walking so long time, are you a bit tired and thirsty? Let's go to Her Workshops to taste Hakka traditional snacks and tea. There are tea leaf, sesame, peanut, red jujube and longan in the tea. Do you taste them?
Ok, after a break, we go to experience traditional Hakka wedding performance. If you are lucky to be chosen and act as the bridegroom, you will be invited to the stage and join their show.
The village also preserves many slogans printed on the walls during 1950s to 1970s, which are silent witnesses to Chinese modern history.
Do you see the big bamboo hats holding by bamboo sticks in line? It is farm four seasons gallery. On the bamboo hats marked farming planting and harvesting dates and festivals.
Finally we have 15-minutes free activity in the countryside vegetable fields. You may like farmers to pick fruits, vegetables you like in the fields.

Not everything went according to form during the seventh week of the high school football season. Here's a glimpse at some of the highlights and notes which made it such an interesting week.
For updated area rankings, please check Sunday's edition of The News-Gazette. There will be some shakeups.
For the first time since 2007, Jud Wienke played in a football game for Tuscola High School. The junior suffered a broken collarbone in the preseason, but received medical clearance earlier on Friday to play and saw limited action in the Warriors' 28-0 win over Maroa-Forsyth. His only pass attempt was incomplete.
A question submitted to Fred Kroner on Thursday for his weekly on-line chat was written by a person who signed "Lenny" from "Tuscola" as his name. Some folks who saw the question made the incorrect assumption that the writer was former Tuscola football assistant coach Lenny Sementi. The reaction was so pervasive that Sementi felt compelled to issue a statement. It said: "I am and always will be a Warrior fan. I did not and never have posted anything on Warrior Football. Someone has used my name to stir the pot and I do not appreciate it. I consider Rick Reinhart a friend and talk with him on a regular basis. Whoever asked the question ought to have the guts to use their own name. I do not know what Stan (Wienke) would have done to this point nor do I care. Once more, I am a Warrior fan, but do not have an opinion on the internal running of the program. It is not my business anymore. The new technology is giving more avenues to those that want to complain, but are not upstanding enough to do it without hiding their identity."
In the opening game of the season, Danville's MykeTez Forman kicked a field goal on the final play of the game as the Vikings edged Bloomington, 30-28. On Friday, the law of averages were with the Purple Raiders. Bloomington's Cody Hubbs blocked a Normal West field goal attempt as the final buzzer sounded and preserved BHS' 16-14 triumph. Normal West held a 14-7 lead with 5:04 remaining in the game.
Entering the third week of the season, Tri-County had managed one touchdown in its first two games and had lost 12 of its last 13 games, dating back to 2007. Since starting Little Okaw Valley Conference play, the Derek Scott-led Titans have done an about-face. Friday's 37-0 triumph over Cerro Gordo/DeLand-Weldon was the team's fifth in succession. Scott had scoring runs of 40, 67, 49 and 13 yards and amassed 243 yards on 22 carries. The effort lifted his season totals to 1,198 yards rushing.
Area schools which reserved a berth in the postseason with their sixth win on Friday were Gibson City-Melvin-Sibley, LeRoy. Milford/Cissna Park, Oakwood/Armstrong-Potomac and Salt Fork. They join three area unbeatens (Danville, St. Thomas More and Unity), which clinched their advancements a week earlier. Five-win schools which need one more victory to guarantee a playoff game are Fisher, Mahomet-Seymour, Monticello, St. Joseph-Ogden, Tri-County and Villa Grove. Twelve other area schools have either four or three wins and are among the ones still in contention for a spot in the 256-school field.
At the point the running clock started in Danville's 46-0 victory over Champaign Central, the Vikings had allowed one running play to gain more than 2 yards (Doug Kyrouac had a 6-yard gain) and one pass play to gain more than 9 yards (Kyrouac had an 11-yard completion to Tyler Finkbeiner. Danville's defensive catalysts included Dalton Allison, Eddie Clark, Cameron Ford, Shavon Morris and Tommy Rose, who teamed up for seven tackles for loss in the first half.
Neither Decatur Eisenhower nor Urbana had their usual starting quarterback available for Friday's game at McKinley Field, a game which would provide one school its first victory of the season. Kyle Clevenger filled in for the injured Trey Russell at Urbana and had 108 yards between rushing and passing. Kyle Johnson stepped in for Zach Shugart, who was listed as "unavailable" by Eisenhower coach Rick Austin. Johnson had 110 yards between rushing and passing in the Panthers' 20-6 triumph.
St. Joseph-Ogden hopes to make Saturday's 1 p.m. home game against Carlyle a special one for team trainer Casey Hug. His wife, Kathy, who works for the UI athletic department as an associate athletic director, recently underwent surgery for breast cancer. Coach Dick Duval, and his staff, are planning on wearing pink hats in her honor and donations for breast cancer research will be taken at the gate and made in Kathy Hug's name.
Bismarck-Henning senior placekicker Ian Park raised his streak to 20 consecutive conversions, which is the entire number of extra points he has attempted this year. ... Speaking of kickers, Unity's Jared Miller, a 305-pound defensive lineman, hit 3 of 3 extra-point tries against Monticello. ... Champaign Central quarterback Doug Kyrouac needs 84 yards to become the first player in Champaign-Urbana history to reach the 3,000-yard mark for career passing. ... Westville teammates Matt Maser and Brendon Severado nearly reached the 100-yard marks in two offensive categories in a 31-26 loss to visiting Oakwood/Armstrong-Potomac. Maser passed for 177 yards and rushed for 97. Severado rushed for 113 yards and had another 98 yards on seven pass receptions. ... Arthur-Lovington senior Justin Schuring's 162-yard rushing effort against East Central raised his career total to 2,137 and leaves him 19 yards shy of breaking Zack Kingery's all-time school rushing record. ... Danville received some help on three of its first-half scoring marches downfield against Central. The Maroons were whistled for four pass interference penalties before intermission, two on one drive. ... Centennial's Shaquille Traylor needs 37 yards to become the eighth different Charger to rush for 1,000 yards in a season. The school has had 10 backs gain 1,000 yards with one athlete (Mikel Leshoure) reaching that plateau three times and another (Quincy Washington) doing so twice. ... LeRoy has had three athletes eclipse the 100-yard mark in rushing in games this season, including Kyle Eastham, who ran for 138 in a 40-point win over Ridgeview. ... Central's homecoming king, Edwin McGhee, caught one of the team's eight completions against Danville. ... St. Thomas More's 33-0 shutout over Paxton-Buckley-Loda was the team's fourth, tying the school record set by the 2008 team.
JUSTIN FLINKMAN, Milford/CPCI. Senior has snagged 11 of the Bearcats' 12 pass completions in the past three weeks, turning them into gains of 295 yards. Against Schlarman, he caught two scoring strikes from Kristopher Evans.
SETH GOOCH, Unity. Junior joining Rockets' quarterback Dylan Sturgeon as big-play artists. Gooch intercepted his seventh pass of the season, had a 53-yard scoring run and returned a kickoff 85 yards for a score against Monticello.
PHILLIP MEYER, Tuscola. Sophomore quarterback had his best rushing game (134 yards) of the season and also passed for 109 yards, accounting for 69 percent of the team's total offense in its shutout upset over Maroa-Forsyth.
JUSTIN MARCH, Danville. Junior followed up on last week's three-TD performance by running into the end zone four times in the Vikings' 46-0 victory over Central in Champaign. Defensively, he's averaging nearly 15 tackles per game.
RYAN OHL, Mahomet-Seymour. Senior had his second 100-yard receiving performance in three weeks, and third of the season, including the TD that put M-S in the lead for good (7-3) in the second half of its conquest of Bloomington Central Catholic.
The Bulldogs' 14-5 upset over top-ranked Bloomington Central Catholic marked the first time M-S had beaten the Saints since 2005 and snapped BCC's 25-game regular-season winning streak. M-S survived despite committing three fourth-quarter turnovers in its own territory, thanks to a defense which yielded only 186 total yards.
The Warriors continued one trend and ended another in upsetting sixth-ranked Maroa-Forsyth (which was ranked No. 1 in Class 2A to start the season). Tuscola's 28-0 win was its fourth victory and its fourth shutout. Before Friday, however, the Warriors had beaten three opponents with two combined wins and had lost to three foes with 15 total wins. Maroa-Forsyth brought a 5-1 record into the game at Tuscola.

Also on ITworld: How astronauts 3D printed a wrench they needed in space Review: Formlabs Form 1+ 3D printer offers mind-blowing precision (video) The hottest 3D printing projects 3D printing medical breakthroughs -- including dog legs LulzBot Mini 3D printer review: Producing objects with precision and accuracy 3D prosthetics lead the way A multitude of 3D-printing companies highlighted their machines'ability to quickly create prosthetics, ranging from dentures, legs and feet to robotically controlled hands. This hand was printed on an Ultimaker 2 3D printer for Refugee Open Ware, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to go to war-torn regions and create custom prosthetics for survivors of catastrophic injuries. 3D printing takes the fashion world by storm The Kinematics Dress by Nervous System is comprised of more than 2,000 interlocking components. While made of nylon, the dress moves and feels like one created with cloth. The entire dress was printed at once and required no assembly.Fashion designers have used 3D printing for years, and as the technology has advanced, it has moved from avant garde fashion to consumer products. Companies such as Nike, Feetz and United Nude use 3D printing to offer consumers shoes that are custom made in store. Even Tony Stark likes 3D printing This replica of Tony Stark's Iron Man suit was built in two pieces using 3D printing from CIDEAS, a 3D service provider. The suit was made on the iPro 8000 stereolithography printer, which creates layers as thin as .0004-in.This isn't just some tech show exhibition display. The model was built for Legacy Effects, a Hollywood special effects studio, which has worked on such films as Pacific Rim, Robocop, Terminator and Iron Man 1-2-3, as well as The Avengers. Bodock, the giant creature for Comic-Con 2014 This is Bodock, a 13-foot, 6-inch tall automatronic creature that weighs a hefty 2,000 pounds. His armor was 3D printed using machines from Stratasys. Bodock, which was created by Legacy Effects, made his debut at Comic-Con last year and was featured on the Jimmy Kimmel show. 3D-printed motorcycle can carry two riders This 3D-printed motorcycle was created by TE Connectivity to prove to its engineers that polymers can withstand great amounts of stress. The bike is styled after a Harley-Davidson softail and can do a whopping 15mph with two riders.The motorcycle weighs 250 lbs. The bike has been tested with weights of up to 400 lbs., and while its tiny 750-watt, 1hp electric motor strains under that kind of load, it can easily transport a person of average weight up to 15mph for more than 20 minutes.The cost to build: $25,000. Rear-wheel hub is one part The motorcycle's frame is primarily made through fused deposition modeling (FDM), where an extruder head controlled by a robotic mechanism lays down layer after layer of melted polymer. The polymers consist of common ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) filament and Ultem 9085 resin, which is heat resistant. Additionally, metal parts on the bike, such as the headlight assembly, were made of bronze using direct laser sintering (DMLS) 3D printing. DMLS systems lay down a fine layer (typically 20-micron thick) of powdered metal across a build area. A laser then sketches out a pattern in the powder, melting or fusing many individual powder layers together. The DMLS process creates a highly dense material with a finished surface. Even the rear-wheel hub (above) was built as one part -- sprocket gear, bearings and all. The bearings and gears continued to function without issue after more than 20 miles of riding. Hybrid 3D printing offers stunning details This ornate box was made with a hybrid 3D printer from Solidscape. The machine combines a CNC lathe with a 3D printer that uses wax to create molds that can be used for casting objects. 3D models for healthcare Because of its ability to print accurate and detailed objects, Solidscape's Max2 3D printer is also being used by the healthcare industry to turn CAT scans into 3D models for surgeons to study. This is a representation of a patient's brain aneurysm. The mold was used to cast a duplicate of the aneurysm and fluid was pumped through it to find the site of the blockage, which then aided surgeons in removing it. A hybrid 3D printer Hybrid 3D printers, like this one from Solidscape, are becoming more popular as a way to combine traditional CNC milling with additive manufacturing. Here is a look inside Solidscape's MAX2 3D printer, which uses a lath (far left) to finish each layer of 3D printed wax (on right) for high precision pieces that include molds for finished, custom jewelry. A working 3D-printed metal engine This diesel motor head was created using direct metal laser sintering, which lays down a paper-thin layer of powdered metal and then fuses it to the previous layer with a laser. While only on display at RAPID, the engine was part of a working motor. To the left of the head is a fuel jet, which was also 3D-printed. A 3D-printed aperture This dilating camera aperture was printed as one part on Hewlett-Packard's Multi Jet Fusion 3D printer, which is scheduled to be released later this year. The printer works by first depositing powder (about 100 microns thick, or the thickness of a standard sheet of paper) onto a print bed using a print bar that looks like a scanning bar on a typical 2D printer. The print bar has 30,000 nozzles spraying 350 million fusing agent droplets per second in specific patterns as it moves back and forth across a print platform.A detailing fusing agent is sprayed around the edges of a printed object, giving it "sharp" details. A pair of 3D-printed scissors If you look at the paper below these scissors, which were printed on an HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D printer, you'll see a clean cut that was made. HP claims its 3D printer, due out later this year, will be able to produce short runs of production parts. A set of skis and a snowboard The Skunkworks division of 3D-printer maker Stratasys had something to prove when it set out to manufacture working skis and a snowboard. It wanted to prove production-level sports equipment was possible with additive manufacturing. In this photo, Stratasys Skunkworks' principal engineer Kevin Johnson (left) and senior applications engineer Dominic Mannella hold their 3D-printed snowboard and skis. Both snowboard and skis were tested by company executives at Lake Tahoe, California, and they reportedly performed nearly as well as commercial snowsport gear. 3D-printed 1969 Ford Mustang This Ford Mustang replica was printed by Forecast 3D, an additive manufacturing service provider. It has 51 3D-printed parts, from the hood vents and door pulls to the center console and quarter panel extensions. The car was built with several forms of additive manufacturing, including Forecast 3D's SLA (Stereolithography) printer, a Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printer from Fortus, Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), as well as more traditional CNC milling. CNC milled parts include the headrest assembly and the wheel centers, as well as the rear spoiler. 3D-printed Ford Mustang engine parts Numerous parts of the Mustang's engine were all 3D printed. A really big 3D printer Nothing screams additive manufaturing like a 3D printer that you can sit inside. Here, this reporter holds a hollow spiral form created in one printing with an industrial-grade 3D printer from Cosine Additive. Cosine's AM1 3D printer made its debut at RAPID 2015 last week and can make products such as chairs and tables in a single run.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT works with our thoughts, feelings and behaviors. CBT therapists understand that by changing the way we think and act in the here-and-now, we can affect the way we feel. CBT can also be applied longitudinally to explore the origin of beliefs, rules and assumptions which shape an individual's world-view: this knowledge can then be used to drive change in the present. There are evidence-based CBT models (and associated treatment protocols) for a wide range of range of disorders, but CBT can also be used to formulate (conceptualize) cases individually.
CBT is an amalgam of behavioral and cognitive interventions guided by the principles of applied science. The behavioral interventions aim to decrease maladaptive behaviors and increase adaptive ones by modifying their antecedents and consequences and by behavioral practices that result in new learning. The cognitive interventions aim to modify maladaptive cognitions, self-statements or beliefs. The hallmark features of CBT are problem-focused intervention strategies that are derived from learning theory [as well as] cognitive theory principles.

wow great work :D
I like the aqua lines!
looks good on the shoulder like that, i would wear it.
This reminds me of Newton's first law of motion "Inertia"; as it seems to portray the ability of an object at rest to stay at rest and when moving to keep on moving.

cool. i love it, as a print or a tee.
woah i really like this
I would say make this a huge print and it would be sweet

|Herbivory Constraints on Symbiotic N2-fixers in Young Recovering Tropical Rainforests
|Costa, Suchana H.
|Hedin, Lars
|Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
|Class Year:
|Early succession tropical forests can serve as a significant carbon sink, but their growth, and therefore, carbon sequestration capacity may be constrained by nutrient nitrogen. Some tree species have evolved symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and help facilitate a carbon sink through a nutrient-carbon feedback mechanism. Yet, the extent to which these N2-fixers can provide the nitrogen needed to support a carbon sink may be constrained by leaf tissue lost to herbivores that prefer nitrogen-rich leaves. Fixers have evolved defense mechanisms, including tougher leaves, to deter herbivory, but the effectiveness and frequency of this anti-herbivore strategy remains unclear. We established herbivore exclosure experiments in young forests in Panama to resolve whether fixers experience more herbivory than non-fixers and whether herbivory rates correspond to leaf nitrogen content or leaf toughness. We observed higher rates of herbivory with fixers and a positive relationship between leaf nitrogen content and herbivory, suggesting that herbivores preferentially selected leaves for nutritional value. Leaf toughness was not a unique trait of fixers and there was no consistent correlation between toughness and herbivory rate. There may be more specialist herbivores that invest in fixers than non-fixers because fixers present a reliable source of nitrogen through space and time. Leaf damage from these herbivores may detract from growth advantages accrued by fixers from their access to supplementary nitrogen. Fixers may be outcompeted by non-fixers, which would indirectly reduce the forest carbon sink by decreasing nitrogen available to non-fixers. Our findings suggest that herbivory may constrain fixers, and in subsequently, may constrain the extent to which tropical forests can act as a carbon sink.

Assess Horse Nutrition, Manage Pastures to Save Money
- Feb 23, 2009
- Topics:
Want to keep your passion for horses alive but worried about how to pay for it? The University of Maryland College of Agriculture & Natural Resources recommends the following to reduce the nutrition costs associated with your horses:
Simplify, simplify, simplify. Do a thorough nutritional evaluation of each horse. Many horses these days are being supplemented with many more nutrients than they actually need. Ask your vet and local extension educator, or your state's extension horse specialist, for input on your horse's diet and supplements.
If your horse is fat, odds are he's getting too many calories. You might be able to cut out that commercial grain or supplement altogether--or find one that better suits your horses' needs such as a forage balancer. Forage balancers are designed for the horse that is on an all-forage (hay or pasture) diet. They tend to be very high in vitamins, minerals, and sometimes protein, but are fed in small amounts--usually not more than 2 pounds per day. The cost per bag might bring sticker shock, but when you look at it as a cost per meal, you might find you'll save money!
Increase your management inputs into your pastures. Horses are designed to eat small meals on a frequent basis. Properly-managed pasture could meet almost all of your horse's dietary needs. The initial outlay in money to renovate a poor pasture may be expensive, but once you get the management in full swing and can keep up with mowing, fertilizing, and rotating the animals, you'll find that you need to buy very little hay.
In Maryland, horse owners might need as much as 2 acres per horse in order to feed them throughout the year, but can get by on less if they put more management into it such as pasture rotation and strict use of sacrifice lots during poor pasture growth periods. For help on pasture management, contact your local Extension office.
For pasture management, you may qualify for federal or state grants to implement best management practices. With some new grant programs available through the Maryland Department of Agriculture's Tributary Strategies office, there is even some potential help for small acreage owners in central and southern Maryland who wouldn't otherwise qualify for funds from EQIP and other federal programs. For more information on cost-share programs, contact your local Soil Conservation District.

The reign of piracy is over in the Caribbean, or so it's believed, until diamonds are discovered in Brazil. Despite the cover-up, Captain Julius Bertrand begins to hear whispers. Distracted by an avaricious woman he could never love and the beautiful Kate O'Connell who doesn't need him, he tries to untangle the web of mysterious cargo someone in the New World wants kept secret. When Bertrand's pirating past returns with the explosive force of a sweeping broadside, he finds he must sacrifice everything his respectable life has brought him, in order to save what matters most.

The suit filed Monday says two middle school students received in-school suspensions last month for wearing bracelets that say, "I (Heart) Boobies. Keep a Breast." The bracelets are sold by a nonprofit to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer organizations.
School officials call the rubber jewelry distracting and demeaning.
The ACLU says the bracelets are perhaps irreverent, but not indecent.
School districts across the country have run into similar disputes.

Voyeur : July 2010
VIRGINBLUE 086 With the depth and variety of its bu rgeoning annual program me of major spectaculars, the Capricorn region is widely acknowledged as the regional events capital of Queensland. Though everything is possible under the Capricor n sun, the region's capacity to stage outstanding events is u nderpinned by its eclectic mix of conference facilities, sports and special interest venues, natural attractions, ideal weather conditions, variety of accommodation options and, importantly, easy transport access to Brisbane and the souther n capitals. New events are continually coming on line, such as the Camco Group MotorMania CQ from 16 to 25 July. Ian Loxton, chairman of the Camco Group MotorMania CQ Committee, says the event, which has been two years in the planning, brings together 20 separate motorsports organisations in Rockhampton and Gladstone. "Competitions and displays include street sprints, rallying, off-roads, speedway, drags, motocross, enduro karts, show-and-shine expos, a specialist swap and car boot sale and an extensive trade fair," Loxton says. Loxton and his com mittee already have plans to expand the Camco Group MotorMania CQ over the next few years to include a Hall of Fame that honours the contributions of local and national motoring and motorsports personalities. Mary Car roll, Chief Executive Officer of Capricorn Tou rism, based in Rockhampton, says her organisation is right behind the initiative, adding, "This is clearly another major event-tourism project for Central Queensland." As bulls and birdies are synonymous with the Capricorn region (Rockhampton CENTRAL QUEENSLAND EVENTS ROCKHAMPTON, CAPRICORN COAST AND CENTRAL HIGHLANDS by Tony Walsh is the beef capital of Australia and the beachfront Rydges Capricorn Resort Yeppoon features two world- championship golf courses), two major events focus on these aspects of the region from 22 to 25 July. The winner of the Paradise Lagoons Campdraft is decided from 2,500 nominations during the competition at Paradise Lagoons, Alton Downs. The prize pool tops $230,000. A highlight of the competition is the third annual Saturday- night State of Origin Campdraft between Queensland and New South Wales. Meanwhile, competitors in the Pat O'Driscoll Real Estate/Tropical Auto Group Pro Am Golf Classic at Capricorn Resort endeavou r to score a birdie each time they tee off on the well-kept fair ways. There is $100,000 prize money on offer at this 12-time PGA award-win ning event.

I have not heard the term used but it presumably described the appearance of removal of all the fat under the abdominal skin. This leaves an unnatural and irregularly indented appearance.

Discover More Handpicked Yoga Retreats
We've collected the best retreats worldwide, click below to explore
The Bhole Baba Center of Cisternino (Brindisi, Apulia, Italy) was created in 1979 by the will of Mahavatar Babaji as the first Babaji Ashram in the Western world.
It was created to help spread His teachings and message of Truth, Simplicity, and Love, and to help bring humanity live according to the Sanatana Dharma, the Universal Eternal Law.
The Center participates to the Italian Herakhandi Samaj and is managed by Babaji devotees through the Bhole Baba Foundation (organization) and the Bhole Baba Association (administration), and with the support of donations from devotees and visitors.
Life at the Cisternino ashrams unfolds according to the same model as in Babaji's Ashram in Herakhan, alternating meditation, and prayers to communal work.
Babaji's yoga is an integral yoga, to be developed also in social activities, based on devotion (Bhakti Yoga) and the ability to act in everyday life, without attachments, offering each action to the Divine (Karma Yoga).
The ashram life is a school where you learn to know your own self and to discover the presence of the Divine within you. Babaji's teaching is universal, respectful of each religious belief.
It doesn't offer a new religion, but the thousands of years-old science of Yoga, the knowledge of the mind, and the way of the heart.

Public Fishing Trips aboard the M.V. Manutere
Whether you're a single person wanting a day out on the water, a family, or a group, but don't want to hire the boat yourself, jump on board and join others on a public trip.
A day fishing trip aboard the MV Manutere is a fantastic way to spend a day on the water, catch some fish, and experience what the ocean has to offer.
Our most popular trip is a Day trip bottom fishing.
We depart Bridge Marina, (first left heading over the harbor bridge from Tauranga to the Mount) pier D34, at 7am and Salisbury Wharf, Pilot Bay, Mount Maunganui at 7.30am. We will return you to the Mount at around 4.30pm and Tauranga around 5pm.
We target the popular table species namely Tarakihi, Snapper, John Dory, Trevally and Kahawhai. Gurnard, Pink Mao Mao, Red Snapper, Porae are also regularly caught.
The destination varies depending on which areas are producing the most fish. The outlying reefs are regular destinations, the Penguins, Astrolabe reef, the Pinnacles and the Okaparus, with the offshore islands of Motiti and Tuhua (Mayor) also being regular fishing areas.
Check the calendar for Public Day Trip >
Hapuka fishing for the deep water species is a very interesting form of fishing, with many different species available to be caught. The deep water knolls out of Tauranga have caught some trophy fish over the years, and are continuing to produce these beautiful eating, hard fighting monsters of the deep.
If you are interested in joining a public trip hapuku fishing, send us an email or call and we'll let you know what we have planned.

2014 CFN Preview: The ACC
Preview 2014
ACC Preview
By Pete Fiutak
- Suggestions or something we missed? Let us know
- Follow us ... @ColFootballNews
Crank up the grunge music. Pop open a cold Zima. And dig out those tattered jeans from the back of the closet. The ACC is about to party like it's the 1990s.
You remember the nineties. Caps on backwards. Brick-sized cellphones. And an Atlantic Coast Conference that was perennially dominated by Florida State. From the day the Seminoles joined the ACC in 1992 until the end of the 20th century, they lost just two league games, while winning the title every season. FSU isn't that far ahead of the field these days, but everyone else could be looking up at Jimbo Fisher's team for a very long time.
The Noles have officially left the tail end of the Bobby Bowden era in the dust. They've won 28 of their last 30 games, including all 14 in 2013 to capture the final BCS National Championship. No one in the league is stockpiling more talent in recruiting, and confidence in Tallahassee is soaring. With Jameis Winston back to defend his Heisman Trophy, Florida State has the best odds of any Power 5 conference team to participate in the inaugural College Football Playoff. The Noles are once again the ACC's undisputed standard-bearer.
Looking to keep Florida State from achieving what seems to be the inevitable is Clemson, which has been on quite a three-year run of its own under Dabo Swinney. The Tigers have won 32 games over that time, but last October's 51-14 loss to the Seminoles signaled that the gap between the ACC's two best teams may be widening. Of greater concern in the short-term is that QB Tajh Boyd and WR Sammy Watkins are gone, which will place more pressure on the defense to fulfill lofty expectations.
The balance of power shifts in the direction of the Atlantic Division, even more so now that Louisville has replaced Maryland as the ACC's fourteenth member. The Cardinals are embarking on a new era in football, with a new coach, Bobby Petrino, and a new quarterback, Will Gardner, guiding the program into a new league. If Florida State, Clemson and Louisville don't occupy the first three spots in the standings, it'll be a surprise. Syracuse, Boston College and NC State are .500-type teams, with hopes of playing in the postseason in December. Wake Forest is facing a steep climb, as Dave Clawson takes his first stab at replacing Jim Grobe.
The Coastal Division? As wide-open as ever. Virginia aside, everyone has a legitimate shot finishing in first, a level of parity that was typified by Duke's appearance in last year's ACC Championship Game. The Blue Devils are no fluke, and are capable of returning to Charlotte again this December. Challenging them will be Miami, Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Georgia Tech and Pitt, in no particular order. The Canes continue to surge forward for Al Golden, though quarterback and defensive concerns present big hurdles. The Hokies are trying to shake loose from their worst two-year malaise in two decades. Carolina could be ready for lift-off for Larry Fedora if both of the team's lines can rebuild on the fly.
Whoever emerges from the tightly-packed Coastal might simply be Florida State's sacrificial lamb on Dec. 6 at Bank of America Stadium. The Noles are that far ahead of the rest of the league. It wasn't long ago that the ACC was struggling for national respect in football. FSU has helped change perceptions by giving the league a signature player capable of competing for a national championship, year-in and year-out. Just like it did two decades ago.
Coach on the Hot Seat
Mike London, Virginia – Cavalier AD Craig Littlepage still believes in his football coach. Littlepage also knows how costly it would have been to fire that coach last year. London is fortunate to be back for another season, considering how poorly he and his staff have performed since being hired in 2010. Thank goodness for seven-digit buyouts. The coach enjoyed a breakout 2011, going 8-5, and he's recruited very well, but the on-field results have been disappointing. London is just 18-31, losing at least eight games in three of his four seasons. He'll enter another pivotal season with a staff that's been thoroughly shaken up from top to bottom. This is London's final stand in Charlottesville. He can't possibly expect another reprieve if the 'Hoos once again wallow near the seabed of the ACC Coastal.
5 Non-Conference Games the ACC had better take very, very seriously
1. Cincinnati at Miami, Oct. 11
2. North Carolina at East Carolina, Sept. 20
3. Georgia Tech at Tulane, Sept. 6
4. Old Dominion at NC State, Sept. 6
5. Colorado State at Boston College, Sept. 27
Bold Prediction
- Florida State will take a perfect record into the playoffs, winning every regular season game by double-digits. The gap between the Noles and the rest of the ACC is even wider than it was in 2013.
- By the second half of the season, Louisville fans will be more excited by Will Gardner's future than disappointed by the loss of Teddy Bridgewater. No, Gardner isn't Bridgewater yet, but Bobby Petrino does things for young quarterbacks that aren't in Charlie Strong's coaching toolbox.
- Beleaguered head man Mike London will be coaching Virginia in 2015. And he'll have his defense to thank for the continuing paycheck. The Cavalier D has next-level talent at each unit. If the offense ever gets its act together, UVa is capable of bowling in 2014.
- Cole Stoudt won't be Tajh Boyd at Clemson. But he will play well enough this season to get chosen in next spring's NFL Draft, despite occasionally sharing reps with hotshot rookie Deshaun Watson.
- For all of the offseason hype, Carolina isn't quite ready to take the next step. The Heels have too many unanswered questions along both lines.
- Virginia Tech will remain in a semi-rut as long as it fails to develop a competent quarterback. Texas Tech transfer Michael Brewer won't be the answer, because they don't operate the Air Raid in Blacksburg. Still, Bud Foster's D will make sure the Hokies contend for the Coastal.
- Now that he has a capable quarterback running his offense, Dave Doeren will take a giant step forward in his second year leading NC State. Florida transfer Jacoby Brissett has ACC Newcomer of the Year potential, provided he gets help from a shaky line and receiver corps.
- Pitt's James Conner will emerge as one of the most popular and visible young stars of the ACC. The sophomore is not only a battering ram out of the backfield, but he also plans to pitch in on the D-line, building on a breakout bowl effort.
- Brandon Connette, who's now playing for Tim DeRuyter at Fresno State, will be sorely missed by the Duke offense. He brought a running element to the Blue Devils that made David Cutcliffe's offense doubly difficult to stop.
- Clemson NG Grady Jarrett will pull a Kelcy Quarles this year, outshining more heralded linemate Vic Beasley. Oh, Beasley will be his usual disruptive self, but Jarrett at full strength will be a force on the inside.
- Miami's Stacy Coley will lead the country in all-purpose plays of 50 yards or more. As a receiver and a return man, the second-year burner is already one of the most dangerous weapons in the game.
- The Florida State secondary will be talked about as one of the best in the history of the ACC. You want depth? The Noles' second unit might still be the best in the ACC, with the only serious challenges coming from Virginia and Virginia Tech.
- After taking an NCAA-record-tying five punts back in 2013, Carolina's Ryan Switzer will have no special teams touchdowns this year. No opponent is going to allow him to return punts this fall. However, Switzer will grow exponentially on offense as the Heels' slot receiver.
- The groans to sweep Paul Johnson—and his triple-option—out of Atlanta will grow even louder. Georgia Tech's four-year bout with mediocrity will continue in 2014.
- For the first time in the Dabo Swinney era, Clemson will win with defense, while Chad Morris' offense finds its rhythm. The Tiger D-line could be the best in America, taking some much-needed heat off a rebuilding secondary banking on a big year out of precocious rookie CB Mackensie Alexander.
Team That'll Surprise
Louisville – New league. New quarterback. New coach. Same old expectations. The Cardinals won't retreat simply because Teddy Bridgewater is a Minnesota Viking, Charlie Strong is a Texas Longhorn and the level of play will be much tougher in the ACC. In fact, Louisville has the right personnel, on the staff and on the field, to instantly become the league's third best team, further widening the Atlantic Division's gap with the Coastal. The hiring of Bobby Petrino will make for a smooth transition, as will the maturation of QB Will Gardner. There's still an outstanding talent base here, particularly on offense, which means the Cards will remain ranked, when many assume they'll be rebuilding.
Team That'll Disappoint
Miami – In July, the media pegged the Canes as the Coastal Division favorite. It would not be a shock, though, if they wound up as low as fourth in the division by early December. The Coastal is a toss-up, sans the powerhouses that exist on the other half of the conference. While the division lacks a national title contender, its depth is improving around the likes of Carolina, Duke and even Pitt. Yeah, Miami is heading in the right direction, and the return to health of RB Duke Johnson is a boon to the program. But the Hurricanes remain unsettled at quarterback and on defense, which are not exactly the trademarks of a champion.
Game of the Year …
Clemson at Florida State, Sept. 20 – Sure, the Seminoles will be heavily-favored in Tallahassee, especially since Tajh Boyd has graduated … and Jameis Winston has not. And no, this won't be the defending champ's only tough game on a schedule that includes an opener with Oklahoma State, visits from Notre Dame and Florida and trips to Louisville and Miami. However, the Clemson-Florida State game perennially sets the tone for the rest of the season, and establishes a defined pecking order in the Atlantic Coast Conference. And until further notice, these rivals are still the league's two best teams.

Katie's positive behaviour policy. Positive behaviour policy for Bumble Bees.
Statement of beliefs, values and goals. At Bumble Bees, we prefer to focus on the positive behaviour occurring in the class rather than the negative. We believe that by praising the positive behaviour, the negative behaviour will stop. We believe that by providing a positive learning environment that is stimulating and interesting for every child, there will not be as much need for negative behaviour, although we do understand that occurrences in children's lives outside of their control do sometimes lead to negative behaviour. A positive learning environment is essential in order for children to learn
Aims of this policy • To support a positive learning environment. • To focus on the behaviour at individual child-level and first of all try to determine the cause of the behaviour. • For children with behavioural difficulties to be included in the setting.

Our school rules are. • Keep hands and feet to ourselves. • Listen when others are talking. • Follow instructions first time they are given. • Move around the setting carefully. • Always be polite. Each class then has the option to add ONE extra rule if they find it appropriate.
Encouraging positive behaviour by… • Thumbs up/ smile from a practitioner. • Verbal praise. • Smily face on hand • Special stars.
Normally, verbal praise will be enough to raise esteem and prevent negative behaviour. Special stars will be given to children seen performing out of the ordinary in anything.

When is comes to shin splints, we all want to run away. If you are a runner or play football, having shin splint pain is nothing to be desired.
There are many injuries and muscle strains that runners and joggers frequently experience, some of which are likely to keep them away from their preferred sport for a few days, or even a few weeks. Frustrating as they are, the time taken for recovery is not long, and many find a way to still sneak in a short run or jog well before they are officially deemed fully fit.
Stress fractures are more serious, taking a good 6 weeks to heal and that is a serious amount of time to be allowing fitness levels to fall. Shin splints, however, can not only take longer to heal than a stress fracture in the foot, but the condition can strike again and again, with some runners plagued with the condition for years.
Shin splint is a common name given to essentially two conditions, each affecting a specific tendon in the shins. Anterior tibial tendonitis affects the anterior tibial tendon, which runs from the mid shin, below and behind the knee. Posterior tibial tendonitis affects the posterior tibial tendon, which runs from the mid shin down to and around the back of the ankle. The tendon inflammation associated with the condition can occur at any point along either tendon, although most commonly it is the anterior tibial tendon affected.
If shin splints are something you suffer with and would like to find some tips and reviews about products and medication to ease the pain, then you can visit this website.

"Most people find slot machines both relaxing and exhilarating at the same time," said Hannah Morante of Slotland.com. "Now they can enjoy a few pulls whenever they need a quick break."
The new technology means more freedom, more fun, and more time to play even short sessions. Players can use the same login ID and password for playing on any device: mobile phone, PDA, Laptop, WebTV, Mac, or Desktop PC.
"I lost five dollars while I was standing in a line up for coffee this morning," said one of Slotland's mobile players. "But I won twenty bucks on the train coming home tonight."
