IAuthenticationModule Interface
Provides the base authentication interface for Web client authentication modules.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The IAuthenticationModule type exposes the following members.
|Gets the authentication type provided by this authentication module.
|Gets a value indicating whether the authentication module supports preauthentication.
|Returns an instance of the Authorization class in respose to an authentication challenge from a server.
|Returns an instance of the Authorization class for an authentication request to a server.
The IAuthenticationModule interface defines the properties and methods that custom authentication modules must use.
Authentication modules conduct the entire authentication process with a server, responding to an authentication challenge as appropriate. This process may consist of requests to an authentication server separate from the resource server, as well as any other activities required to properly authenticate a request for a URI.
Custom authentication modules should implement the IAuthenticationModule interface and then register with the AuthenticationManager.Register method. Authentication modules are also registered at program initialization by reading the configuration file.
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows XP SP2 x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.

Title : EVALUATION OF A GEOTECH MODEL 20171 SEISMOMETER.
Descriptive Note : Technical rept.
Corporate Author : GEOTECH GARLAND TX
Report Date : 01 OCT 1965
Pagination or Media Count : 49
Abstract : Field test results of a Model 20171 Shallow-Hole Seismometer are presented. Tests were conducted with the seismometer located at various depths in a 152 m deep hole. Data are compared with recordings from a Model 11167 Deep-Hole Seismometer, located at a depth of 150 m in the same hole. Results indicate that the operation of the shallow-hole seismometer compares favorably with that of the deep-hole seismometer. Frequency-domain measurements of teleseismic signals recorded by both systems indicate that the signals are generally similar, but never identical. This difference can be explained by the different transducers used in each seismometer and by the slightly different frequency response of the two systems. In conjunction with the above tests, field evaluation of two solid-state FM amplifiers, was also conducted. Results of the amplifier noise tests indicate that the noise level referred to the input of each amplifier is slightly higher than those specified in the preliminary specifications for each unit.

There are many benefits of coconut oil for dogs that are discovered, even if it was not recommended in the past. Coconut, also known as the "tree of life" is that has found many benefits, not only for people, but also for our best friends.
There are many products and wooden furniture made from coconut leaves. Many food and desserts have at least a little coconut milk in them. But the most popular use of coconut, in the field of health and medicine, is coconut oil, which has been found to cure or alleviate many diseases.
Many diseases and diseases such as pilin infections, stinky coats, hot spots, cuts that have been infected, and even cracked feet, can be cured with just one bottle of "Native Coconut Oil".
If other forms of diet remedies have failed, try this miracle of naturopathy for your dog. Native coconut oil does not mean refined and can be used for dogs and humans. Lauric acid, a medium-chain fatty acid help prevent bacterial and viral infections. This is usually found in the mother's milk and builds the immune system. Fortunately, dogs can enjoy the same protection and benefits of any gift of health throughout their lives.
There are many other benefits of coconut oil for dogs, all the good reasons why you should give your dog a little native coconut oil. First, you may be able to reduce the risk of cancer. It also improves digestion and your dog will take medicine for most digestive problems. Also, the thyroid function remains normal with coconut oil. You can give your dog a smooth and shiny coat and healthy, supple. Pilinfections and yeast treat and prevent even coconut oil. Arthritis and similar pain can also be minimized or treated. Coconuts can also keep your dog's metabolic balance your weight under control.
Another area that has achieved amazing results is in the prevention of parasite infestation and seemingly cure the problem in many cases. As described by the natural healing of bees.
Coconut oil can provide an effective defense against many parasites including Giardia dull. Like bacteria and fungi, Giardia in coconut oil can not stand up against MCFA.
The research confirms the effectiveness of MCFA in the destruction and possibly other protozoa Giardia. With coconut oil and other coconut daily nut products, you might be able to establish Giardia before destroying walking.
It can be administered from the outside to the inside or applied, and can provide remedies for many skin infections. You can disinfect cuts and improve the skin and coat of your dog in general, it is healthier to make. Wounds heal faster with using coconut oil, and helps deodorize the skin of your dog and clear some outbreaks.
And unlike most herbal products for the health of your dog are good, the coconut is something that your dog will probably like to eat. Probably coconut oil and not too vocal, swallow it. As people can get some coconuts, our dear friends. Mixed with their food – he healed many small defects.
Many veterinarians and researchers recommend the regular use of coconut oil for dogs and many other animals as an excellent source of nutrients to keep your dog healthy.
The recommended dose is very simple; Just take a teaspoon of coconut oil per 10 pounds of dog, or you can type one tablespoon per 30 pounds. Begin with about 1/4 of the recommended and gets refreshed in the recommended for 3-4 weeks because the symptoms sometimes appear flu right away when the dose rushes. However, note, coconut oil contains fat and calories, so you may need to adjust your dog's daily diet to compensate.
Have you already started using coconut oil to start your dog?

The need of heavy equipment is very much in need for lifting and working in moving heavy things in a working site. Most of the construction companies are in high requirement of these types of machinery since they have to dig and build big buildings making it compulsory to have these types of equipment.Depending on the type of construction building, road construction or any other like waste removal process or moving of items from one place to another the requirement of the equipment will change. These heavy machineries are termed as heavy duty earthmoving equipments. The earth moving equipment can be categorized into about six different types. A machine consisting of a cabin known as the "house" is on top of undercarriage which is used to work with excavations. These machineries are with booms, dippers and excavator buckets which are used for various purposes. There are types which are used for general purposes which are designed with special holders which help to throw material or dump material easily.
Various holders which could be used for handling of material
Depending on the type of use and depending on the type of materials to be handled there are different types of equipment. They are mud holders where there are special bolts to hold take and hold mud, there are 4-in 1 holder which is manufactured to work with heavy duty equipment and also waste management. Tilting holders are there for slope forming and trenching. There are many more which are V holders, rippers and compaction wheels. Differently designed ones are used for different uses making it effective and easy for the user to carry out the task efficiently.These mentioned good excavator attachments for sale are available in many countries which manufacture heavy equipment. A wide variety is also available in Australia making it so easily available with variations for clients to purchase. The spares and the needed training and repairs are also available since it requires vast knowledge and knowhow in operating the machinery with care. Special attention and safety precautions should always be taken to operating making sue of the safety of the operator and the surrounding workforce and the worksites are looked into with safety. These equipment costs quite big revenue when purchasing since they are capital equipment which are very expensive. Some people run hire services providing these equipment on a per hourly rental basis. They sometimes rent the machine with their operator so that it is very convenient for the customer to work with. The spares and the accessories are also available in the market for the purchase of the customers.

I don't know if I need a coach. What can a coach do for my life?
How is a coach different from a therapist or psychiatrist?
There is a dramatic difference between a coach and a therapist (or psychiatrist).
The therapist is an expert, who views you as broken and in need of a cure. The coach views you as OK, and as having all the resources within you to achieve whatever goal you wish.
A therapist focuses on the problem, and may explore your past to find the source of the problem. The coach invites you to focus on your future goal and as you move towards it, deal with any limiting beliefs as they arise in the present. (You may be carrying some 'gremlin' from the past, but where it comes from doesn't matter; the coach helps you analyze how this is affecting your life now).
The therapist evaluates and judges you. The coach does not evaluate or judge, but invites you to evaluate your own ideas.
The therapist suggests solutions. The coach uses powerful questions and guided exercises to help you find your own solutions.
In a coaching relationship, you are the expert in your own life and you are in a position of power as you create your future. There are certainly times when therapy is needed. However, I'm sure a therapist would agree that a person needs to get back to a position of self-empowerment as soon as possible.
I have coached clients who were also in therapy at some point, and they have reported that the coaching helps them to become more emotionally self-sufficient. One of my clients, who was previously in counseling, said, "I have accomplished more in a few coaching sessions and have acquired more tools in a few hours with Jane than I did in months of counseling." For her, the coaching helped her to discover her own potential. As she says, "The greatest realization of all: I can be anything I want to be. Absolutely anything."
In therapy, there is a high risk of dependency, but coaching can help you to overcome that risk because in a coaching relationship, you take charge of your own life.
The coaching process involves:
As you can see from this process, the focus is not on the problem, but on a specific action-oriented plan towards a goal. Keep in mind... you tend to get more of whatever you focus on!
The coaching goal can be concrete (like changing careers) or subtle (like becoming more confident). If your goal is subtle, you will need to specify how you will measure your success. For example, "I will be confident enough to give a presentation to my colleagues".
A coaching agreement has a clearly specified goal and end-point, while therapy is less clearly delineated. When the coaching client achieves their stated goal, it signals the end of the coaching sessions.
The power of coaching is in the clarity of the goal and the ongoing focus on that goal - a goal and plan entirely formulated by the client.
Is a midlife crisis inevitable?
Many people experience what Wayne Dyer calls a "shift" around midlife, when we stop struggling for success and start to search for a sense of meaning and purpose in our lives. This is consistent with Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs - i.e. when we have fulfilled our needs for safety and security, we move on to higher needs.
This shift may not happen to everyone, but it is probably very common and it can happen anywhere between 30 and 70, depending on our circumstances. Most people feel it as a deep need for "something more" in their life. The question is whether this shift turns into a "crisis", and the research suggests that it depends on how the individual deals with change.
If you have initiated significant changes throughout your life, you may embrace the idea of change and find this period of your life exciting. I have changed career many times in my life, so when I entered semi-retirement and switched to a new career, it was much easier for me because this was 'just another career change'. And I knew, from experience, that I would be much happier for having made the change.
However, if you have experienced little change in your life, you may find this period of time very stressful, since it usually draws you towards change, and change may arouse fear.
So, how will you be able to deal well with this kind of "shift"?
The "Life Mastery" method of coaching I use with my clients helps you to realize that you are always in a position of choice. You can choose whether to undergo a change or not; You can choose to take a change slowly; You can even choose how to respond if a change has been imposed upon you.
The process involves the following steps:
By taking conscious responsibility for your choices, you will move from a victim position to a mastery position. You will be able to see this phase of your life as an opportunity to transform your life in a way that YOU wish - a way that will bring you a sense of fulfillment and joy.
A number of my clients have changed careers at this stage in their life, and they have done it in a step-by-step way that allowed them time to integrate the change without stress.
Many aspects of your life may be affected in this phase. I have seen some people end a relationship that was not working, and I have seen others undergo a renewal and transformation of their existing relationship.
You never know where the "shift" might take you, but one thing is certain... when you listen to your heart and examine your options with an open mind, you will be able to find a more fulfilling and joyful life.
How is positive psychology used in life coaching?
There are a number of situations in which positive psychology is used in a coaching.
If a client states their goal in the negative (e.g. "I want to get out of this awful job"), a coach will ask "What is it that you DO want?". The reframe might be "I want to find a job I love". Notice how much more emotionally compelling a positively framed goal is.
In a situation where a client is worrying about an upcoming meeting or presentation, and picturing all the things that might go wrong, the coach will invite the client to visualize in detail, a scenario where the event is played out in the best possible way. When the client has worked out responses to all possible challenges, and has started to feel positive about the event, it will play out with ease in reality as well.
Positive psyschology is also used to find the opportunity in seemingly negative situations. A client of mine who had lost her job discovered that this was a great opportunity to start her own business.
In some cases where clients say they have made a huge blunder, a coach might ask "What is the learning opportunity here?"
Positive psychology is so important in life.
A coach asks questions that will draw the client into a positive mindset, and I have found that it doesn't take long before clients develop the habit of moving into a positive mindset.
Positive psychology is also evident in the fundamental belief that the client has all the resources to find his/her own solution.
This is tremendously powerful. When I am asking questions and taking clients through visualizations, I KNOW that they know how to get to their goal, and I KNOW that they can get there. Whether they choose to or not is up to them, and I respect whatever they choose to do.
But having a coach who knows that you CAN accomplish whatever you wish, helps clients begin to realize that they have all the resources to achieve their goals. As one of my clients said, "The greatest realization of all: I can be anything I want to be. Absolutely anything."
How do I get home from work at a reasonable hour?
One of my clients who was struggling with exactly this problem had a breakthrough realization. He realized that it was not only his right, but it was his responsibility to take care of himself.
He said, "You know, like they say in the airplane to put your oxygen mask on first before helping someone else. Well, it's the same thing. I have to take care of myself before I can perform at full capacity in my job. And that means not stressig out, working healthy hours and enjoying my time at home without thinking about work!"
YOU are the one who chooses where to place self-care on your list of priorities, and if you put yourself at the bottom of the list, your health will suffer, your work will suffer and your home life will suffer. You have to come first, so that you CAN support everyone else.
You may believe that your boss will think you're not dedicated if you don't work the extra hours. But the truth is that if your respect yourself, others will too.
How does it feel to say...
When you can say that without any guilt or resistance coming up - without feeling defiant - but feeling calm - when this statement is obvious, then you will be ready to do some time-management and it will be easy.
The fundamental key to time-management is to not take on more than can be done comfortably in regular working hours. If another project is added, collaborate with your boss to decide what is to be dropped or postponed. Allocating resources fairly and reasonably is the responsibilty of all managers and you need to make it clear to your boss that this is what needs to be done.
If a schedule slips, re-do the time plan - not your hours! Ninety-nine percent of deadlines are arbitrary. Always question and challenge deadlines.
If meetings get in your way, decline all but the essential ones.
Other techniques are:
Get creative about getting the essential work done in the time permitted.
And don't forget to schedule lots of pleasurable outside activities to lure you home!
How do you sharpen your intuition?
The key to sharpening your intuition is a "silent mind". Let me explain why and how...
Most people's minds are occupied with a constant monologue about past events and future plans. A thought comes and they follow it. There is not one moment of mental stillness.
This activity is housed in the left hemisphere and is characterised by logic and language.
The source of intuition, on the other hand, is the right hemisphere, which is characterised by wholistic thinking and a sense of oneness with all. The intuitive voice is much more subtle because it has no language; instead, it communicates using feelings and symbols.
In order to perceive the more subtle voice of intuition, you must slow the constant chatter of the left hemisphere and listen with a silent mind.
Imagine stepping outside of your mind and observing your thoughts without following them. Simply observe each thought and let it go. Continue observing. If you find yourself following a thought, catch yourself as soon as you can and get back into observer position.
After some practice, you will find that fewer thoughts will come and your mind becomes more still.
And when you are less distracted by thoughts, you will be able to pay attention to feelings and images that arise from your intuitive side.
There are many other exercises and practices that help us to tap our intuitive side - spontaneous drawing, keeping a dream journal, some coaching exercises.
One exercise I have used with my clients is the Three-Chairs Brainstorming.
There are other coaching techniques that draw on the intuition as well.
Let me know if you'd like more information about these. (email@example.com)
What is a good book on happiness?
My favorite book on this topic is "Joy: The Happiness that Comes from Within" by OSHO.
Osho talks about "Joy" as something beyond happiness or pleasure. Joy is a state of being that has nothing to do with external situations.
He says that it is our basic nature to be joyful, and we can experience that state when we:
Happiness and pleasure are transitory because they are based on external situations. Joy and bliss are constant because they depend only on our inner state of being.
You can learn to experience that state being through meditation, when you simply sit in silence and do two things: (1) observe your thoughts and (2) let them go. Eventally, the thoughts will slow down and your mind will become still. Then you will experience the state of joy and bliss.
When you have practiced meditation regularly for a while, you will be able to return to that state of stillness during the day in the midst of other activities, and this is when you will start to realize that joy is not dependent of external situations but on your inner stillness.
From that place of stillness, you will face any seemingly negative situation with curiosity and interest. You will automatically ask, "What can I learn from this? What can I create from this?"
You will embrace everything that presents itself, experience it fully, and discover its gift.
In times of emotional sadness, I used to write poetry or music and I found myself enjoying the experience even though I was crying.
So, in order to experience joy in your life, you may want to:
How to overcome fear so you can follow your dreams?
Aside from situations where you are in some real and immediate threat, fear is usually about some possible future outcome. And the outcome that most people fear is a loss of love and/or security. But the problem is that many people seek love and security from external sources, which puts them on very shaky ground!
How did this start? Well, when you were a very young child, you depended on your parents to provide you with food and shelter (real needs) and to ensure this, you had to maintain their love. So, any time you were about to do something that they might disapprove of, you would become afraid of the consequences and you would refrain from doing it.
Now, as an adult, you no longer depend on others for food and shelter, but you still feel the same fears. So, in most cases, fear is a remnant of a past behavior that is no longer needed, but that you are still falling into, and it keeps you from living your life your way and fulfilling your dreams.
But you can get over this through awareness and understading.
Let's say for example, you want to take an art class, but you are afraid that your spouse will feel neglected and not love you any more. You are assuming that you could not live without his or her love. That was true when you were a toddler, but it's not true now.
Similarly, if you are afraid to change from a secure job that you find soul-destroying to a less secure job that you love, you are assuming that this secure job is your only source of security (just as your parents were). Again, that was true when you were a child, but it's not true now.
As an adult, love and security are something you hold inside of yourself, and you don't have to depend on external sources for these things.
So, fear is usually based on the assumption that you need love and security from an external source. It's a memory of the child you used to be. Picture this inner child and imagine taking it in your arms and reassuring it that you will give it all the love and security it needs.
Become the parent of your inner child, soothe away all its fears and learn to love and protect yourself.
How to recognize your disempowering buttons?
So, how can you recognize your 'disempowering buttons' in the moment, so you will be able to reclaim your power before giving it away mindlessly?
You can learn to do this in stages.
How to overcome complacency and move forward with your goals?
Whenever you want a change in your life, there are two voices in your head. One wants the change and the other is cautious. Complacency is a tactic that the cautious part plays. In fact, if you don't address its concerns, it will sabotage your efforts towards change in many creative ways. But it's trying to protect you!
In order to move forward with change, you need to address the concerns of the cautious part of yourself.
One method that I've found useful is to write down all the objections and all the risks. Then, write down how you will protect yourself against the risks.
Do this frequently as you move towards your goal.
If you do a good job of this, it will allay the fears of the cautious part and it will stop its self-sabotaging behavior.
How to snap out of a bad mood and take action anyway?
Bad moods need attention. Imagine it's a sub-personality that's sitting just behind you. Imagine reaching around and pulling it forward and asking it what it's upset about. Ask with deep concern. This is a part of you that's hurt or angry and needs attention.
It needs to be heard, understood and consoled; and only then will you know what action is really needed.
It may be that you have been catering to everyone else's needs but you've denied your own needs. It may be that you've been living up to other people's expectations and denied what you really want in life.
Whatever that 'bad mood' part of you is feeling, you need to hear it.
You may decide that you have to compromise - perhaps between what others need and what you need. But it is important that you have a true heart-to-heart conversation with this sub-personality.
It's a part of you that you have denied and without it, you are not whole.
I suggest you read the book "The Dark Side of the Light Chasers" by Debbie Ford. I have gone through all of the exercises in this book twice an have done this work for years. I have also helped my coaching clients through this type of self-discovery, so I know from personal and professional experience that it is very powerful and extremely helpful.
Bad moods are telling you that you are missing something important in your life. Find out what it is and care enough about yourself to do something about it.
How do I know if I'm ready for Life Coaching?
For each of the following statements, rate your level of agreement on a scale of 1 to 10 (with 1 being the lowest agreement and 10 bring the highest)
I am ready to set aside a specific time slot for a coaching sessions to dedicate to myself and my goal.
I am willing to do the work to find my own answers.
I am willing to change self-defeating behaviors which limit my success.
I am ready to explore limiting beliefs and new ways of being.
I will follow through on action items that I have commited to at each of the coaching sessions.
I see coaching as an expression of commitment to my goal and a worthwhile investment in my life.
If your responses add up to less than 35, you are probably not ready for coaching right now.
In order to gain from the coaching process, you need to have a "deep commitment to change". You don't have to know exactly what change you want. Coaching will help you clarify your goal. But you need to want change.
You also must be ready to "do the work needed", both in the coaching session and in between sessions. If you are at a level 5 on these points, your motivation will most likely increase as you clarify your goal and as you discover the benefits of achieving that goal.
The willingness to "explore limiting beliefs and new ways of being" is also important. Changing your external circumstances often also means changing your perception, attitudes and mindset. I have seen clients move from a place of fear and insecurity to optimism, joy and confidence. And this attitude supported the change they wanted in their lives.
You may find it useful to go through an introductory session with a coach to discuss your situation and find out if coaching would be useful for you. There is a form that you might be interested in completing to request a free introducatory session
How do I get the most benefit from Life Coaching?
Your Life Coach will help you set an Overall Goal for the contract period, and will help you set specific action items in each session.
However, in order to gain the most benefit from your coaching, you need to remain commited to your goal and carry out the action items you have set for yourself in each session.
One of my clients often forgot her action items by the next session, so I now use a Pre-Coaching Form which my clients complete before each session. That form contains:
This helps my clients stay accountable to the commitments they have made to themselves. It also helps us make sure that we are tracking towards their Overall Goal.
Other ways to stay focused on your goals are:
Try them out an see what works for you.
How does one spend more time pursuing pleasure and less time being afraid of pain?
What is the underlying assumption you are making?
You may be discovering a great truth here... i.e. If you rely on external pleasures to bring you happiness, you will experience ups and downs in your life.
I'm not going to suggest that you end the cycle of pleasure and pain by becoming an ascetic. Personally, I'm all for pleasure, but I also accept that pain is a part of life and I make the best I can of that too.
"Make the best of pain?!" you ask?
Well, I didn't say enjoy it, but accept it, go with it, learn from it.
In my younger days, whenever I lost a boyfriend, I used to write poetry, play music, paint. And so I created beauty within the painful experience.
And if you find yourself gaining too much weight because of the delicious food you have been eating, learn from the experience, and get creative about perhaps, finding foods that you love but that do not have the negative consequences.
Once you realize that there is something to gain from every painful experience, you will stop living in fear.
How can I stop blaming others and start taking responsibility for my life?
Whether you acknowledge it or not, you are always responsible for your life. It's a matter of becoming conscious of that fact.
If you blame others for your situation, you have chosen to create your life as they see it. It is YOU who chooses to follow that path.
It takes courage to follow your own path. It often takes courage to even imagine a path that is different from others' expectations.
When a client blames their life on someone else, I ask him or her to explore alternative paths.
Suspend judgment and just brainstorm all the possibilities.
It's ok to come up with totally ridiculous and impossible ideas.
You can do this even in simple situations. For example,
I could get Angry / Defensive / Laugh uproariously / Start taking courses / Decide it's not important because I'm kind and empathetic...
Here's another example:
I could be devastated / Panic / Relieved / Figure out what skills I need to improve / Change careers / Change countries / Go live with my parents / Enjoy some time off...
The simple act of brainstorming moves you into 'choice' mode, and that helps you realize that you are responsible for your path. Then you can make a conscious choice.
I have a tendency to destroy good things in my life. I don't know why. How can I stop?
There are many different ways that people destroy good things in their lives, but it usually starts with your thoughts. For example, you might get a fabulous job, and then you start to think "This is too good to be true; I just know I'm going to blow it!". With thoughts like this, you will be too insecure to ask questions so you will not learn; you will be too anxious and tense to develop a good rapport with your colleagues; and you wil project an image of incompetence to your boss. And so, you will sabotage your chances of success.
Imagine if instead, you had thoughts like "Wow, this is a great opportunity. I may not know everything about this job yet, but I know I can learn quickly, and I know I'll do well!". Now you will be happy and relaxed with your colleagues, you will be willing to ask questions, and your boss will see a person who is optimistic and constantly learning. With an attitude like this, your success will be easy.
This clearly illustrates the power of your thoughts.
You may say that your thoughts tend to be negative, but thoughts are just habits and habits can be changed. Here is the technique that my clients have used to change habits of thought...
Start by watching your thoughts - catch them as they zoom by - and for each thought, ask yourself "Is this thought destructive or is it positively moving me forward?" If it's destructive, re-formulate it and repeat the new version a couple of times.
Eventually you will become adept at formulating positive thoughts quickly and you will notice that positive thoughts will start to come up automatically. And when your habitual thoughts change, so will your life!
What is something I can do to renew myself?
Renewal starts with a vision, and there are many tools and exercises that one can use to develop your personal vision. An exercise that I have used very effectively with my clients is described below. (This exercise has been adapted from one developed by Peter Barr-Thomson and Josephine Thomson, called the Core Coaching Essence)
Draw three large circles on a sheet of paper.
In the circle labeled "Potential", write at least 7 of your positive traits and skills that you have or are moving towards having.
In the circle labeled "Passion", write all the things that you love to do (things you are passionate about). Take your time and write as many as you can think of.
In the circle labeled "Purpose", write things that bring meaning and purpose to your life. Again, allow lots of time to think of as many things as you can.
Then, look at all of the things you have written, find links between things in each of the areas, and find the underlying thread.
Then, complete the following sentence in the box at the bottom of the page, incorporating elements from each of the areas.
"I live my unique personal life purpose when I�"
Once you have completed this exercise, you will have some idea of what motivates and inspires you. And when you add activities to your life that incorporate some of these elements, it will provide you with a true sense of fulfillment and joy.
What are some tips to maintaining a healthy work life balance?
I think the great secret is to find a career that you love. When you are in a job you love, it is no longer draining your energy. You are feeling positive and energized at work. It is an important part of your life. You no longer distinguish "work" and "life" - the two flow together natually and easily.
I have seen clients transition to a career they loved, and the work life balance issue ceased to be a battle. When they come home from work, they are feeling so positive and energized that they seem to automatically attract a social network that matches their interests. And they express such joy when they are with their spouse and children. Everything seems to just flow.
When I myself was in a job I loved, I never thought about work life balance. I was always doing what I loved. So I think the secret is "Find work that is not work!"
Less stress and more success: HOW?
Focus on the success that you already have and feel proud of that success. Then build on that with joy.
Stress usually comes about because we're focusing on where we want to be rather than were we are. If you focus on now and successfully manage this moment in the best way possible, you can gain that feeling of success.
It's all about being in the present and being your best - now.
How do I get started to be all that I can be?
This isn't about who you CAN BE, but about who you ARE.
Find what you love to do, and do more of it in every aspect of your life - now. It is often possible to find something you love to do in your current everyday life and in your job. And as you do more of what you love to do, you will see more opportunities and be ready to move into them.
One of my clients who loved to write started to find opportunities to write in her job. She would volunteer to write reports for working groups that she was a part of, produce ads for company events and suggest changes to the company web page. Before long, her talents were noticed and she was offered a position as a copy writer in the company's communications group. And her day job became a joy for her!
You have a special gift and if you don't know what it is, a coach can help to discover it and find ways to express that gift in creative ways in every aspect of your life - starting now.
How do I make change for the better?
If I was coaching a person who asked this question, I would ask them to define "better". And then, I would ask them to define "even better", and then to define "awesome". Once you start to envision a life that is beyond your wildest dreams, the change is already starting to take place.
Every thought and every feeling actually creates your reality. A vision that is exciting and compelling draws you to it. Synchronicities start to happen and doors start to open.
So, the key to 'change for the better' is the vision.
When I work with clients, they do formulate a plan, overcome obstacles and commit to actions every week, but we continually return to the vision in order to keep the motivation high. The vision is the wind beneath your wings as you soar to your highest dream, and the joy is not so much in the destination but in the journey!
I don't know if I need a coach. What can a coach do for my life?
If you are at a point in your life where you truly want a change (in any area), you can almost certainly benefit from the services of a coach. A coach invites you to explore beyond your wildest dreams, to a truly inspiring vision. The coach will then help you to develop a path to that vision, overcome challenges and will help you stay focused in order to make that dream a reality.
Many people fail to make this jouirney on their own. A coach wil help you to keep your vision alive, to stay motivated and to soar to your greatest heights with energy and joy. The coaching process keeps you accountable to YOU and your goals.

San Francisco Recap
Unfortunately, I ended up getting in about 5 hours later than I was supposed to after over sleeping and missing my shuttle to the airport in Colorado, so when I arrived to SF it was dark, and rainy. I went straight to meet my family at The Slanted Door. I was starving and tired, so I really think any restaurant would've sounded incredible. I ate some of a squid dish, cauliflower, dumplings, and cellophane noodles and everything was delicious.
The next morning, we all woke up around 7:30 to get ready for the day. We had planned on heading out to see the redwoods, but because of the rain decided against that plan. Instead, we went to Mr. Holmes Bakehouse for pastries for breakfast. The line wasn't very long since we got there just about 45 minutes after it opened. We opted not to wait in the cruffin line, and instead had the Ferrero Rocher and Bananas Foster Donuts, Turkey and Pesto Danish, and a Artichoke Danish. I thought everything was really good and the cute neon lights in the shop we so insta-worthy (which I loved!).
After that we went to check out the Goyard store, per my request. I loved staring at the pretty bags and am looking forward to the day where I've saved up enough money to feel comfortable purchasing one!
From there, we went over to Fillmore Street and stopped in Toss Designs, which was the cutest little shop! They had tons of gift items including matches, napkins, small cosmetics bags, etc. I love stores like this, and was delighted to find so many cute items. Lots of preppy, fun, and colorful products! I'd really recommend stopping in if you're on Fillmore!
We then walked over to The Bud Stop to look at the flowers. I read about them online, but nothing I saw before did this cute spot justice. All of the flowers were so fresh and they had a lot of unique blooms to choose from. I loved that they wrapped up the bouquet in brown paper after you've selected the flowers you want!
For lunch on our first day we went a little outside the city (over the Golden Gate Bridge!) to Farm Shop in the Marin Country Mart. The food was amazing. We started with the avocado hummus-- which was a beautiful mix between gaucamole and hummus topped with some pistachios. It was delicious and unlike anything I've ever tasted before. Since we were starving, we also ordered a pizza to share, which tasted just like the pies I had in italy this past summer! For my main, I had the pappardelle bolognese, which reminded me of italy as well!
After the day, we were tired but kept driving around, eventually landing on Hayes St, which reminded us a lot of the West Village in NYC. There were a lot of cute shops, and it was probably one of my favorite neighborhoods in the city. Lavish was my favorite store that we popped into, which reminded me a lot of a cuter paper source!
In the same neighborhood the following day we headed into a candy store called Miette. Filled with bright colors of candy, it's hard not to find this place especially cute. I purchased raspberry turkish delights that were really yummy and unlike any gummy candy I've really had before.
For another sweet treat the night before, we went to Smitten, where they freeze the ice cream as you order it. You select your flavor, and fillings, and then they put it in a nitrogen mixer where it becomes the solid ice cream we all know and love! It was really tasty, even for someone who doesn't love ice cream too much like me.
My favorite meal in the city came from Park Tavern, where we went to brunch right before I left. The food was really delicious, but the deviled eggs and avocado toast really stole the show.
If you go to San Francisco, the one thing I must recommend doing is stopping by the Fortune Cookie factory! Nestled in an alley in china town, there's a small fortune cookie factory where you can watch a few cookie be made, and even make your own fortunes to put in a few cookies! My brother got a few made to say "PROM?" and will use them for his prom-posal later this month!
I wish I had more time-- and sunnier days-- to explore San Francisco but unfortunately my spring break had to end!

Contact Manager helps you to maintain your contacts in a centralized address book, and have a comprehensive view of related tasks, notes, interactions and emails.
Using Contact Management software, sync up to three email accounts from Google Apps (Gmail), Microsoft Exchange and Office 365, and any IMAP service provider for full two-way email communication.
Contact Management Software is equipped with graphical timelines to display complete histories of contact activity, including emails exchanged, website visits, social updates and dashboard activity. The graphical interface provides a simple view to track the entire communication with a contact.
Agile CRM includes web analytics to track contact web activity and analyze user behavior. Know when leads browse your website, where they came from, which pages they visited and how much time they spent on each page. One lead can watch a video, the other can visit your pricing page, and someone can just be a casual visitor. So the web analytics in the Contact Management software give you a detailed view of web visitors and where to invest time to capture sales-ready leads.
It's a great product. We love it! As well as the efficient support team!
Full CRM email integration lets you exchange emails with contacts without ever leaving your Agile dashboard. Attach docs and track email opens and link clicks. Interact manually within automated email campaigns. This striking feature of Contact Management software saves you from the hassles of sending individual emails to all the contacts.
Tag-based segmentation lets you organize as well as cross reference contacts and companies using tags for professions, locations, specific organizations or keywords. You can also create reports using tag filters.
Filters help businesses to segment their customers and send targeted emails. Contact Management software improves the effectiveness of your email by enabling you to send it to the right audience.
With Contact Management software, you can quickly add tasks and events such as phone calls, submission deadlines and meetings. Sync them with your calendars for reference and reminders.
Use existing filters or create custom ones in the Contact Manager to easily sort through massive lists of contacts. Choose specific conditions and save your filters for future use.
Contact Manager allows you to manage your contacts quickly and efficiently using bulk actions to add, update, edit, email or export multiple contacts at once.
Integrate with third-party applications to push and pull data with apps for social media, customer support, calling, billing, web forms and more. Agile's Contact Manager supports many plugins.
Contact Manager enables dialing and speaking to a customer at the click of a button. Make, receive, record and analyze calls with seamless SIP Telephony integration.
View social media profiles on contact pages and communicate with these profiles from within Agile CRM's Contact Management software. Engage your leads on Twitter, Facebook and beyond.
Agile CRM has home-grown service automation software that comes as an added feature in the CRM. You can quickly convert Agile into a helpdesk CRM in seconds. See ticket histories and deliver better support with Zendesk, ClickDesk, HelpScout and LiveHelpNow integration.
Manage payments and invoices and see customer subscription information with billing integrations. Agile CRM integrates with FreshBooks, Stripe, Xero and QuickBooks.
Contact Management software has an enhanced functionality to create custom fields according to your needs and store even more information about customers.
Contact Manager enables you to easily import contacts directly from a .CSV file or from another CRM with the help of Agile's sorting tool.
We like Agile CRM because it's built for a combination of offline/online business, like a SaaS company that manages enterprise deals. It's full of features, but doesn't feel cluttered as they keep things clean and simple. And we love that they keep adding integrations.
It was faster to switch to Agile CRM than it was to deal with my current CRM's limitations.
In short, this is the best CRM platform I've ever used. Between the tagging system, workflow engine and API, this system has the ability to do marketing automation better than any other system I've worked with. The timeline makes it intuitive to keep track of customer contact points. The integration with IP phone systems means that costs are kept low. I have already recommended it to several of my clients and will follow up to ensure that they use Agile. Agile CRM is, quite simply, the correct choice for small business.

A ducted system has more installation options than a self-contained system. The unit may be installed up to 25 ducted feet from the cellar, with the cool air flowing to the cellar and the heat exhaust ducted to the outside of the home. Ducting is also a more aesthetic choice for wine collectors who do not want to see a cooling unit in the cellar. Noise from the unit will be reduced or eliminated, depending on the installation.

This series features an advanced liquid temperature controller with a remote LED display (which can be placed up to 300 line feet from the unit) and electronic thermostat. The systems are designed to maintain 55°F and 50-70% relative humidity.
The WhisperKOOL Platinum 4000 Fully Ducted Split System will cool a wine cellar up to 1000 cubic feet. For cellars up to 2000cubic feet, there is a larger WhisperKOOL Platinum 8000 (also available fully ducted). Key Features:

Under Florida law you can bring about dissolution of your marriage in a manner that is uncontested when there are "irreconcilable differences" in the marriage. Couples often seek this solution when they have reached a final decision that they will be divorced. You may want to avoid the complexity, the costs, the length of time and the disagreements that divorce cases can bring about.
While divorce can be very difficult on all the parties involved, a divorce attorney in Fort Myers may be able to quickly handle your uncontested divorce in a cost-effective and straightforward manner. These divorces are available to those who can come to an agreement on all the details of their divorce without intervention of the courts.
Uncontested divorces fall into two major categories.
It may even be the case that you and your spouse agree that you want a divorce and have agreed to the division of your assets and liabilities.
At Calvo & Calvo, Attorneys at Law, we take pride in being able to help our clients achieve an optimum resolution to their divorce situation. When agreements are in place regarding the following, the uncontested divorce process can move forward:
In an uncontested divorce, you most often need and want a marital separation agreement. There is also a short court hearing that takes place as part of this process. There are certain legal requirements such as being a resident of the State of Florida for 6 months and filing for dissolution of the marriage in the proper county that need to be properly handled.
Once the requirements are met, and with the assistance of a caring and professional attorney from our firm, the proper legal papers can start to be filed with the courts. There are many steps that need to take place and be properly handled to ensure your divorce goes as you intend.
One of the key elements in your uncontested divorce is what the marital separation agreement states. This agreement can affect your life and the lives of loved ones for many years to come. Issues such as child support, child custody, the division of property, the division of debts, the handling of health insurance, visitation rights and many more must be handled in an understanding manner that takes care of both the immediate and future needs of all concerned. We would like the opportunity to assist you and you with your divorce in an efficient, understanding manner.
Contact a Fort Myers Divorce Lawyer if you have decided on divorce and wish a prompt and competent handling of your uncontested divorce case.

"Views-Birds-Family Fun"
Wow! Our family of four (including our two teens) stayed at Casa Chiltotes for 4 nights. What a wonderful home! The caretakers Rony and Veronica were very attentive and wonderful to us. Valerie also coordinated a very nice trip...along with transportation. The home is a short drive to Antigua and Rony was always available to take us where we needed to go. The whirlpool/pool was perfect, hummingbirds absolutely marvelous and the overall feel and accommodations more than we expected. You will have a wonderful time and not want to go home!
"Elegance above antigua"
After driving from arizona to Guatemala, this rental was exactly what I was looking for to relax in this colonial town! Very short drive to downtown antigua. Absolutely wonderful views of the three surrounding volcanos through the sliding glass wall in the main living area. The option of having this glass wall closed, partially open, or completely open makes this vacation rental truly unique. And at night you can see the twinkling lights of antigua below peeking through the trees. The onsite staff of the guard/gardener, the maid, and the gentle German Shepherd are a wonderful addition to this property. And the optional chauffeur is great for those without their own vehicle. I'm not a birder, but it's been a joy getting to see so many different species of birds in the gardens surrounding the house!
"Marvelous house"
A few comments on the house. We had an amazing few days in antigua and Casa Chiltotes was a big contribution to it. The house is really marvelous to spend time in and the decoration is exquisite. We are delighted to have had the opportunity to pick this place! We especially enjoyed the kitchen, the large diner table and the sofas all integrated in one large living area. ... and the monumental window, with its breathtaking views! We enjoyed having our early breakfast while seeing all sorts of birds bathing in the two carved water holes in the ward. A tall drink at sunset time with the view of the volcanoes (active Fuego was exploding from time to time). We just enjoyed every minute of it! The rooms and bathrooms were spacious and agreeable. Congratulations for this little corner of paradise! Everyone in our group is delighted. Thank you and see you again soon!

If someone had told me back in 2007 that Lucie White & Company would grow to become the successful business it is now, I think I would have found it pretty funny! Sitting at my kitchen table with little more than a laptop, an address book and the details of a couple of rental properties, I had no idea that I was taking the first tentative steps towards building the company that I am so proud of today.

and he responded "yes I know"
and I continued "I think we should"
and he affirmed "okay"
and I acknowladged "now that there are those sponsored accounts we might be able to get that mood theme up"
and he replied "okay"
and I persisted "we need an excuse for why we haven't posted"
then I made my suggestion. and he said that it was too mean. But I'm going to say it anyway and qualify it as "not Alex's statement."
I'm really sorry that we haven't posted in a while but we're trying to gain a readership so we were trying to be more like Shoebox.
and now: Totally random ass icons that we might post again when we have non random ass icons that we can pimp out elsewhere so people will look at them and then maybe take a random ass icon too.
come on- at least look at them.
oh- and it turns out that no matter how hard I try, I can't change mood theme for a community. oh well, back to free account then. which is where it would be anyway. because once you get a mood theme, it stays even if you swich back to free :). (the one being used is mine. David Searching mood themes = love)

Why "Survivor" endures
"The show"s blueprint for longevity and success," says Dalton Ross, "lies in its ability to reinvent itself every single season while retaining elements of the original formula – physical challenges, Tribal Council, the dopey catchphrase 'The tribe has spoken' – that fans know and love. Because you have a new cast every season, there is always a brand new dynamic at play. It"s like pouring 18 to 20 different chemicals into a test tube, shaking it up, and seeing what happens. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn"t. But that"s what"s so genius about the formula: even if one season ends up being a dud, CBS gets to hit the reset button when it"s all over and start anew." PLUS: Jeff Probst on whether All-stars will be brought back, and Probst considers the past 4 seasons in the Top 10 of all "Survivor" seasons.
"Suits" adds Neal McDonough
He"ll play an SEC investigator who investigates wrongdoing at Pearson Specter.
Singing shows are sinking: As "The Voice" disappoints, "Idol" had a disastrous night
"The Voice"s" ratings last night were way down from the last two seasons, while "American Idol"s" final performance show was watched by just 6.6 million, which as Josef Adalian notes was "the least-watched episode in the show"s history. Not the least-watched finale, but the least-watched episode, period, going all the way back to when the show was an infant in 2002, and (some) real human beings voted for Justin Guarini instead of Kelly Clarkson."
Shark Week this summer will include "Air Jaws" and "Alien Sharks"
This year"s Shark Week, which kicks off Aug. 10, will also highlight unusual sharks like mutant sharks and sharks that glow in the dark.
The New Mexico Law Review is publishing a special "Breaking Bad" issue
The journal from the University of New Mexico School of Law"s special issue will tackle such topics as "Ethical Duties of Lawyers to Clients Involved in Drugs or Sophisticated Crimes." PLUS: Vince Gilligan may direct commercials.
"West Wing" fan created a detailed website devoted to Season 2, Episode 18
Jon White"s website devoted to "17 People," the 40th episode of the NBC drama, argues that that episode is the greatest hour of TV ever created.
Fox posts a farewell to "Almost Human" video

Labor's Capital: The Economics and Politics of Private Pensions
Why are pension funds so large and benefits so small? This examination of the 120-year-old American system of privatized social insurance--often called, at 1.7 trillion dollars, the biggest lump of money in the world--reveals that the system fails to provide adequate retirement income security, its most prominent goal, and, in fact, its greatest influence is in supplying funds to U.S. capital markets. Linking market forces, historical movements, and social norms in the evolution of pensions, Ghilarducci's study is the first to focus on all major aspects of the system. Its trenchant analysis of the many sides of pensions and pension policy addresses questions of whom the system benefits, its direct and social costs, and the possibilities of reforms that would take into account the related problems of capital formation and retirement income. Ghilarducci describes the history of pension funds and the involvement of unions in bargaining. She takes up the "moral hazard" involved in the conflicting interests of corporations and their employees, tackling issues of information availability and inequality of pension distribution based on sex, race, and job hierarchy. And in two chapters, each focusing on corporate and union uses of pension funds, she covers such topics as tax breaks, the effect of corporate takeovers, the use of pensions to pay back debt, and the kinds of skimming that can occur despite government regulation of pension activities. Ghilarducci concludes by presenting an ideal pension plan that would benefit both employer and employee and by offering predictions about pension plans of the future. Teresa Ghilarducci is Associate Professor of Economics at the University of Notre Dame.
