Otavalo, Ecuador: 7-Day Body+Soul Camp
Hands down, this is the most exquisite, fully-immersive, healing, self-care event we offer. You can call it pampering, a reset, a detox, a week of therapies for the body and the mind, a yoga and meditation retreat - whatever you'd like. But one thing is clear: it's changing people's lives. For someone who wants to go all the way - and experience healing on the inside, outside, and everything in between, Body+Soul Camp is not to be missed!
I'll just say it - I wish every single person could experience this retreat!
It's THAT good. Every person that has attended has unanimously loved the experience and felt that coming was one of the best things they've ever done. We've heard again and again from our retreat alumni: "I want to come again. I want to come every year. I want to send my spouse. I can't wait to tell everyone about this."
Transformations are taking place there. There is nothing that can compare with showing love and respect to the body and the spirit - all at the same time. It's rejuvenation and healing at its finest.
This retreat is The Reset.
It's like spring cleaning for your mind, the spirit, and your amazing body. This is the experience that can launch you forward with more beauty, power, radiance, and wisdom. We're talking a surge of energy and liveliness, a oneness with a community who is on the same path, confidence in your body and it's capabilities, a clearing of any cloudiness in your mind, and even glowing skin. You will feel a oneness with love in ways you've probably never imagined! (Just ask any retreat alumni!) All of this love and good health will change your vibration. You'll get to take that vibration back to your life -and even better, you'll be taught all the skills you need to maintain that vibration over time. This is the greatest gift you could give yourself - and the greatest gift you could give to those you love.
And, it all takes place IN THE ANDES!
Here's the deal with Body+Soul Camp:
A healthy body is the healthy soil for life and vitality to grow. So in honor of health and the power it has to change our lives, Body+Soul Camp is truly a knitting together of all of the Love & Happiness principles we teach with the principles of eating whole foods, drinking green juice and smoothies daily, eating more live/raw/whole foods, and incorporating spiritual practices like yoga and meditation.
We envision empowered women and empowered men leaving a legacy. We envision people being freed from their ego by understanding their truest identity and acting like it in marriage, in relationships, in families, in jobs, and in all the challenges of life. We envision the pursuit to give and receive love, because that is who you want to be - and because you believe people are worthy of love, and so are you. This is how we make the world a better place. This is humanity at it's best.
And that's why we created Body+Soul Camp.
This Retreat is For You If You:
...feel you could benefit from a break from stress, worries, and hectic schedules and come to a place where you can just BREATHE and spend a week taking care of yourself in the BEST WAY humanly possible!
...want to head back into your life, your marriage or relationship, your family, or your endeavors with NEW TOOLS to help you offer your love and good energy to the world.
...want to learn healthy habits that can often help you kiss good-bye to fatigue, aches and pains, stress, sleep issues, acne, migraines, bloating - or even depression and anxiety. We've seen this in others. We've experienced it ourselves.
...want a jumpstart to eliminating addictions and unhealthy relationships to sugar, processed foods, unhealthy fats, junk foods, chemically laden foods, refined foods, caffeine, packaged foods, sodas. (And yes, eliminating these things will naturally help you to lose weight if that is one of your goals!)
...want to be LOVED and SUPPORTED FULLY by a kind and loving staff in a group setting - and with other people who are on the same path. (You won't even believe the force of good you will feel by going through this experience with others.) Your own kitchen cupboards and the cupcakes at the office will be far, far away!
Results You Can Expect:
- You'll be able to experience things firsthand for yourself and practice things IMMERSED at the experiential level opposed to just reading or thinking about ideas or a healthy lifestyle in a book or on a blog.
- Save time, efforts, and money by addressing healing from every angle: nutrition and nourishment for the body, exercise for the body, healing for the soul, clearing of old patterns and thoughts, love and connectedness with other human beings.
- Have freedom and joy in recognizing your power over your emotional well being. This is priceless.
- Learn how to be the best kind of partner - for now or in the future.
- Do ALL of the things that you wish you could do in your daily life to take care of yourself, but you just don't have the time.
- Feel connection with other human beings - we're talking the greatest, highest connection possible. (You'll see what I mean and I promise you'll love experiencing it.)
- Freedom from chronic suffering and pain throughout your life (and the costs involved in living that way.) It's possible to end cycles. It's possible to reverse old patterns. It's possible to reclaim your life and your health. You'll learn how.
- BECOME THE WOMAN/MAN YOU WANT TO BECOME - NOW. Don't waste another day/week/year.
- Transform the script in your head to reflect the beautiful, powerful person that you are.
- Learn how to feel comfortable and worthy of love in your own skin.
- Look younger and save hundreds on "miracle" skin products, dermatologists, chemicals, medications, surgery, microdermabrasion, peels, etc. Perhaps even heal acne for good (I did!) by eliminating harmful foods.
- Gain knowledge about how to incorporate more WHOLE & LIVE foods into your life.

Plan On Incredible Food!
Yes, let's get this food thing clear: YOU WILL LOVE IT. The flavors will be rich. The colors vibrant. The plates will be just full of so much goodness that you might even get tricked into thinking you're eating an indulgent meal. Know that around every corner, the week will be a celebration of food! Healthy food that nourishes us from the inside out. You will walk away with a completely different lens on what it means to eat raw and eat yo' vegetables.
Breakfast through lunch will be 100% LIVE/RAW food. But don't think our cooks will be serving you carrot sticks! They've been trained by a raw food chef, and the meals will be filling, delicious, and abundant and will include soups, main dishes, salads, and side dishes. I promise you can do this, even if you've never eaten this way before. These raw meals are gourmet. And raw brownies may be involved. :) The best news: these delicious meals and whole food desserts won't zap your energy, they'll add to it in leaps and bounds. And what's even better, these meals will be prepared with a lot of love - for your ultimate nourishment and healing.
Dinner will feature some cooked vegetarian dishes by the cooks at the property. Their food is super flavorful, healthy, hearty, and delicious. We know cooked meals are certainly a part of life - and they can also be chock full of whole foods and plants. We want to show you how diverse and flavorful a meal full of vegetables can be. You'll get to try some Ecuadorian specialties as well as Mexican, Indian, Asian - and it will all be served with so much kindness from the incredible Ecuadorian staff.
There are some private rooms for couples. Some rooms will be shared with individual beds. We'll do our best to accommodate any needs.
The rooms at Casa Mojanda are in little cottages and they are SO beautifully done, well kept, and comfortable. The owner has impeccable taste. Plan on comfortable white linens and towels, hacienda style rooms with thoughtful details, and an incredible art and Ecuadorian craft collection throughout the property that will make you ooh and ahh. A fun note: The owner is a former Brooklynite and used to live in Brooklyn Heights on Orange Street!

Interplay between topology and dynamics in the World Trade Web
We present an empirical analysis of the network formed by the trade relationships between all world countries, or World Trade Web (WTW). Each (directed) link is weighted by the amount of wealth flowing between two countries, and each country is characterized by the value of its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). By analysing a set of year-by-year data covering the time interval 1950-2000, we show that the dynamics of all GDP values and the evolution of the WTW (trade flow and topology) are tightly coupled. The probability that two countries are connected depends on their GDP values, supporting recent theoretical models relating network topology to the presence of a `hidden' variable (or fitness). On the other hand, the topology is shown to determine the GDP values due to the exchange between countries. This leads us to a new framework where the fitness value is a dynamical variable determining, and at the same time depending on, network topology in a continuous feedback.

It was all about fashion at the 2014 Geneva Auto Salon. While there were plenty of glamorous models within the halls of the Palexpo centre, it was the cars of tomorrow that strutted their stuff under the spotlights and onto the stages.
There was plenty of high-performance machinery to grab the headlines, but unlike in previous years the Geneva show wasn't all about the fashion of going fast, as there was as much chatter about colours and connectivity as there was about power and economy. The likes of Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and Renault were showcasing compact cars with bold new colours, while Maserati, Audi and Volvo revealed the next breed of motor show concept machines.
The biggest news though came not from a car maker, but from technology giant Apple, which revealed its intention to become a serious player on dashboards of the future, while Audi showed its interpretation of an aircraft-inspired digital instrument panel.
Here are the highlights of the first major European motor show of the year.
Maserati Alfieri
One of the few surprises at the Geneva show, the 2+2 concept coupe, is being touted as Maserati's answer to the evocative Jaguar F-Type and a rival to the Porsche 911. The Alfieri is expected to go into production within the next two years as the company's entry-level sportscar under the four-seater GranTurismo. "We are evaluating now whether this concept could actually go into production to complete the Maserati line-up of the world's best performance luxury sedans and grand tourers," Maserati boss Harald Wester said.
It is based on the current GranTurismo Stradale but has had 240mm chopped from its wheelbase to measure 4590mm in length. Under its bonnet is a 343kW version of the company's ageing 4.7-litre V8 driving the rear wheels. Any future production model would likely take advantage of the new twin-turbo V6 and V8 engines developed by Ferrari.
"The Alfieri is not a GT, it is the perfect size 2+2 sports car that could complete the line-up of Maserati," Wester reiterated.
Audi TT Quattro Sport Concept
Audi sprung a well-kept secret at the opening of the motor show with its racey, high-powered concept, the TT Quattro Sport.
With the muscled-up TT concept, Audi set out to demonstrate what the TT's technology can do when taken a step further - and potentially previews the next-generation RS version. Board member in charge of technical development Ulrich Hackenberg summed it up as an "extreme driving machine for the motor sports enthusiasts''.
An eye catcher visually, the TT concept also has impressive performance potential with its 2.0-litre TFSI worked on to generate 309kW of power and driving all four wheels.
Weighing 1344kg, the Audi TT Quattro Sport concept races from zero to 100km/h in just 3.7 seconds.
The wheel arches extend 30mm further than on the production TT, giving the car a tough, masculine stance. A large, fixed wing increases the downforce.
Befitting a car with racetrack ambitions, the show car interior has been reduced to the essentials; the door panels have been stripped of armrests and speakers.
Mazda Hazumi
Strip away the concept car jewellery (sleek mirrors and door handles, for example) and the Hazumi is the clearest hint yet of how the new Mazda2 city car will look like when it arrives late in the year.
The new Mazda2 will also pick up a fuel-saving new 1.5-litre petrol engine marketed under the SkyActiv banner, but don't expect the new diesel powerplant in Australia, at least initially.
Fuel use is expected to be significantly lower than the current car's 6.4 litres per 100km official claim. Think something below 5L/100km, almost as economical as some hybrid misers. Fuel efficiency w ill also be helped with new transmissions, including a six- speed automatic.
Jeep Renegade
The Renegade is sending Jeep down a path it has never travelled previously with its smallest SUV yet.
The boxy baby car will be the first Jeep to be made exclusively outside the US, developed on the new small-car platform that underpins the upcoming Fiat 500X, which it will be built alongside at the company's Melfi assembly plant in Italy.
The car, which draws on the original Willys Overland with some classic Jeep design cues such as its seven-bar front grille, round headlights and exposed tail lights, w ill be available in Australia from mid-2015 and, uniquely in the burgeoning city SUV segment and true to the Jeep philosophy, only in four-wheel drive.
The Renegade will, however, come in two distinct variants; the regular city-biased model has a part-time all-wheel-drive system while the Trailhawk model is designed for more adventurous buyers with a full-time system that also gets a traditional low-range transfer case transmission and 20mm of extra ground clearance.
The Renegade, which will start below $30,000, will be available w ith a range of petrol and diesel engines mated to various transmissions, including a nine- speed auto.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe
It's all about opulence and technology in the latest two-door version of the S-Class limousine.
It will become the first road car to feature an advanced tilt function capable of leaning it into corners in a manner similar to a bike.
The new function, integrated into the Magic Ride Control system first seen on the latest S-Class sedan, is part of a series of new comfort enhancing technologies.
The tilt function detects corners via two cameras mounted in the windscreen and a transverse acceleration sensor. Using the hydraulic damper units, or so- called plungers, of the air suspension, it alters the rate of firmness and crucial base point for each individual damper, automatically inclining the body to an angle of up to 2.5 degrees between 30 and 180km/h to reduce lateral acceleration acting upon occupants while providing the basis for faster cornering speeds.
Mercedes-Benz has confirmed one initial engine for the new S-Class coupe, twin-turbocharged 4.6-litre V8 direct injection petrol unit is carried over from the old model but with a series of detailed changes that boost its power output by 15kW to 335kW.
On top of the optional tilt function, it also boasts a road scanner function, which uses the stereo cameras to read the road surface and automatically alter the stiffness for better ride comfort.
Lamborghini Huracan
Set to replace the long-serving Gallardo as the opening account in the Lamborghini line-up, the new V10-powered mid-engined Huracan coupe gets a 448kW V10 engine.
The initial LP610-4 model will be available in four-wheel-drive only, although like its predecessor a lighter rear-wheel drive version has been conceived and is planned to go on sale in 2015.
Holding true to Lamborghini tradition, the Huracan flaunts a highly extravagant appearance with a distinctive – but somewhat predictable – wedge shaped silhouette.
It makes extensive use of carbon fibre in a bid to shed weight. Its main structure, elements of which will be shared with the upcoming second-generation Audi R8, continues to be constructed primarily of aluminium.
With a 0-100km/h time of 3.2 seconds, the Hurracan is claimed to outsprint the four-wheel drive Gallardo to the standard acceleration benchmark by an impressive 0.5 seconds.
Volkswagen T-Roc
The targa roofed T-Roc is the latest high-riding concept from Volkswagen and one expected to see production in 2017 as part of a five-strong future SUV line-up currently under development.
Among the perceived rivals for the new Volkswagen, which will share its underpinnings with the upcoming Audi Q1, are a number of popular compact SUV offerings, including the Nissan Juke.
The exterior of the T-Roc flaunts what Volkswagen describes as the latest evolution of its SUV styling DNA.
Further design features tipped for inclusion on the production T-Roc include the integrated tail lights and round LED headlights, which Volkswagen suggests were inspired by the round lamps of the Karmann Ghia.In a move that hints Volkswagen is considering a targa roof function on selected new models, its latest concept also includes a removable roof panel that can be stowed in the boot.
Further off-road highlights include cameras mounted within the headlamps and at the rear, allowing the driver to monitor the terrain on the central monitor.
Volvo Concept Estate
Volvo's futuristic wagon concept is a clear nod to the 1800ES of the 1970s but more likely previews the company's new station wagon, which will ditch the concept's sleek two-door configuration for a more conventional five-door layout.
But the most important aspect of the new concept is its interior. In keeping with the push towards fewer physical buttons and more digital displays, the concept is fitted with a large iPad-style touchscreen in the centre of the dash.
Hyundai Intrado
The new Intrado compact crossover coupe previews Hyundai's future design direction.
The new design language is an evolution of the "fluidic sculpture" theme started with the fifth model Sonata back in 2010 and since used throughout the Hyundai line-up.
Peter Schreyer, the Korean car maker's design president, says the new crossover has been designed to suit an active lifestyle and engage with a younger generation of buyers.
"It is small enough to park in the city, but comfortable over long distances."
The Intrado also showcases an innovative construction process; underneath its steel panels is a space frame consisting of inter-connected hoops of carbon fibre reinforced plastic.
The Intrado is powered by a second-generation version of Hyundai's hydrogen fuel-cell driveline.
It uses a proprietary fuel cell stack and electric motor to drive the front wheels.
Mini Clubman concept
The latest addition to an expanding Mini line-up, the wagon-like Clubman, has four regular doors as well as twin barn doors at the rear.
A key difference that the Clubman offers over the regular Mini is that it seats five people rather than four, thanks to a longer, wider body.
The concept has its own take on Mini's classic look, with a hexagonal radiator opening framed by oversize headlamps, while chrome- ringed horizontal lights at the rear separate it from previous models.
Skoda VisionC
The dramatic-looking concept previews a new five-door liftback model undergoing development and planned to join the Skoda line-up in 2016.
Called the VisionC, the new concept has been conceived to fill the gap between the Octavia and Superb in Skoda's range.
Many of the VisionC's design cues, including its bold chromed grille, taut styling and triangular theme to its lamps, will be reflected on other future Skoda models.
Honda Civic Type R
Designed as a race car for the road, the Civic Type R features pumped wheel arches accommodating wide tyres as well as huge cooling vents and an aggressive rear wing. For the first time the Type R will get a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine good for more than 206kW.
Ford Focus update
While it's the same basic car underneath, the updated Focus gets a fresh look front and rear. Gaping triangular apertures on the old car's bumper have made way for slimmer design details with chrome accents framing new fog lights that sit below sleek headlights.
The complicated, button-laden dash of the old car has been replaced with a much simpler layout featuring a larger infotainment screen compartmentalised into four zones that look after telecommunications, navigation, entertainment and climate.
Under the bonnet, Ford's local arm may choose to offer its efficient 1.0-litre EcoBoost motor currently used in the EcoSport and Fiesta.
BMW2-Series Active Tourer
It's a BMW, but not as we know it; for the first time the German brand will sell a front-wheel-drive model.
It will also be the first BMW model to be offered with three- cylinder power in the form of compact new turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine closely related to that in the new Mini.
The proportions of the Active Tourer differ greatly to those of traditional rear-wheel-drive BMW models, especially around the front-end, which receives a comparatively short and heavily angled bonnet.
Expect it in local dealerships by the end of the year from about $40,000.

Google Ventures-Backed Signpost Brings Repeat Business to Daily Deals
The daily deals sector may be overcrowded and highly competitive, but New York's Signpost is leveraging a different approach to help attract customers to small merchants.
The two-year-old startup operates as an advertising platform that gets deals published online on behalf of cafés, spas, restaurants, and other retailers. On the surface that sounds like the same pitch as Groupon and Living Social. What makes Signpost different is it serves as a marketing middleman between small retailers and more than 1,200 Web publishers such as Yellow Pages, Dealster, AOL, Yipit, and Patch, where deals are offered. Now Signpost is rapidly widening its coverage by collaborating with another growing daily deals site.
Last month, Signpost entered a partnership with Google Offers to post deals from its clients. The partnership comes at a time when Google Offers is expanding into new markets such as Philadelphia, Miami, Austin, and Houston. The agreement also deepens Signpost's relationship with Google, which backs the startup through Google Ventures.
Other investors in Signpost include Spark Capital and angel investors such as Thomas Lehrman, co-founder of Gerson Lehrman Group; entrepreneur and blogger Jason Calacanis, and Jack Herrick, founder of wikiHow. Stuart Wall, the CEO and founder of Signpost, says his company has raised more than $1 million thus far but would not disclose the total amount of its current funding. If the company's revenue growth continues, he says Signpost may not need to raise more capital—at least in the near term—to fuel its expansion.
Wall says daily deals offer merchants measurable results from their marketing efforts, as compared with gauging impressions from online ads. However, it can be tough for small businesses to get attention in the crowded field of daily deals. Signpost offers merchants a way to quickly increase their exposure. "We think the big innovation for us is we allow them to access every platform," Wall says. "We want to play the access role for every market."
Signpost charges clients $99 per month and offers access to a network of publishers to post the deals. The company primarily works with retail-oriented small businesses, though it may explore other categories as well.
Through the partnership with Google Offers, Signpost's clients can also be discovered by users searching Google Places, which offers recommendations on local businesses. Wall says his goal is to help businesses attract more repeat local customers than onetime discount opportunists who are just passing through. "Sometimes with daily deals, a number of buyers would never go to the businesses on their own and probably won't come back," he says.
Daily deals can come with a few drawbacks, of course, particularly for small businesses. "What we don't like is they tend to be inflexible," Wall says. "You can't set the terms on how many people receive the offers."
He says another potential problem is a misalignment of goals between daily deals site operators, who want to sell as many offers as possible, and businesses that want more repeat patrons who are not driven just by discounts. Wall estimates that 10 percent of daily deals customers come back to pay at full price.
Signpost began with a business plan Wall drafted in 2009 while at Harvard Business School. His initial idea was to help small businesses who were not already online get noticed on the Web. "If you're an offline business, it is really expensive and inefficient to advertise online," Wall says.
He launched his startup, at the time named Postabon, in early 2010 as a platform that invited consumers to post their favorite specials and discounts from merchants, much like a Yelp review. "If we had a lot of information we could get consumers to look at it and then offer premium listings to businesses," Wall says.
But he soon realized that approach was not effective. "We weren't closing the loop," he says. "We didn't know who was actually visiting the businesses." Postabon changed its name to Signpost in October 2010 and then in 2011 pivoted to operate as an online advertising go-between. Signpost negotiates rates and alleviates some of the legwork for merchants by suggesting Web publishers that fit their needs. "The average business owner is getting like five calls a day from some of these [daily deal] sites," Wall says.
Wall says Signpost is avoiding the model of marketing discounts in massive floods, which may encourage consumers to seek offers from many merchants rather than become repeat customers at a select few. "Our objective is getting good customers to our businesses, not selling the most offers possible," he says.

After a superb and rather relaxing weekend back at home, now that I am done with most of the travelling and having finished catching up my breath with multiple things, both in my personal and work lives, there isn't probably a better way of finishing the weekend than putting together this blog post celebrating a single event that hasn't got anything to do with the topics I normally get to talk about over here, but which has kept me busy for most of the day today, and specially most of the evening, too! And still going on with the celebrations!!!
With all of that said, and almost ready for another great and eventful week, where regular blogging will resume once again, I can only think of one single sentence:
Football - Made in Spain!
Well done, boys!!! That's just how you play super fine football throughout the entire championships! ... Very proud! :-D

Anyone know the dimensions for the Long vs Reg vs Wide?
Anyone know the dimensions for the Long vs Reg vs Wide?
What does the FACTORY PILOT mean? Are these different from other oakley splice goggles?
I got this off tramdock and was so excited. Went to put it on the first time and the button on the powder flap ripped out of its place instead of snapping out of the female part. Sucks!
I was looking forward to using it, but now I have to return it. Looks really nice (I got the blue), but the craftsmanship has me worried...

Senator Flanagan Secures Grant For New Smithtown Library Van
Senator John Flanagan (2nd Senate District) joined with the leaders of the Smithtown Special Library District as they unveiled the library's new van into service. The cost of the van, which will replace an older broken down van the library system had used for years, was offset by a $17,000 grant Senator Flanagan secured through the New York State Department of Education.
The new van will be used by the district to transport items and supplies throughout the library system, which is the 7th largest in New York State. This will include transporting books, videos and other items between their four branches so that their collection is accessible to all Smithtown residents.
"The Smithtown Special Library District plays a valuable role in both the social and educational lives of the residents of the Town of Smithtown and this new van will help them maintain their outstanding level of service to our community. I am glad to be able to partner with them help provide everyone with access to all material regardless of the branch they visit and to make it the most user-friendly library system possible," stated Senator Flanagan.

THE son of a prolific local fundraiser is participating in one of the UK's most gruelling endurance events in his mother's memory.
John Bell, 34, of Hartlepool, is currently training for the Forces March, in which walkers, runners and hand-cyclists complete the equivalent of five marathons in five days for the Veteran's Charity.
Mr Bell's mother, Beverley Bell, battled breast cancer for many years, but died in December 2012.
Loading article content
She was well known for her fundraising for Hartlepool Hospital's Cancer Unit. Mr Bell's brother has completed the Forces March for the last two years, with him acting as support driver. This year, his brother and father are acting as his support team.
Mr Bell said: "Mum began supporting the charity when my brother took part in the Forces March. When I told her of my plan to participate, it put such a smile on her face.
"At this stage, I'm both excited and daunted. I've never put my body through anything like this, and I'm not sure what I'll be like afterwards."
Beverley Bell worked for Tilly Bailey and Irvine Solicitors in the firm's Hartlepool-based Investment Department. The local legal firm is donating £1 for every mile of the endurance race, in Beverley's memory. The Forces March takes place in Devon from Wednesday, May 22 to Sunday, May 16. The Veterans Charity was founded in 2008 to support to veterans of all generations. Mr Bell's sponsorship page is at www.justgiving.com/John-Bell231

Winter Savings For Your Biz
Cold weather can be costly for businesses! Discover a few ways help your business save money in the wintertime.
Slippery Sidewalks = Potential Costs: De-ice sidewalks, parking lots and other outdoor pedestrian areas. It will reduce the potentially costly risks of employees or visitors getting injured from slips and falls. Remember, American Family business insurance can cover you for these and other risks, too — talk to an agent for details.
Don't Chill Your Workers Out: To reduce heating costs, lower the thermostat in work areas, but not too much. A study from Cornell University indicated that office workers are most productive at 77 degrees Fahrenheit, and that employers could save $2 per worker per hour by "raising the temperature to a more comfortable thermal zone." During non-work hours, turn the heat down to 55 degrees to save on heating costs.
Have a "Closed Door Policy: "Keep exterior and freight doors closed as much as possible to lower heating bills.
Let the Sun In: Open curtains and window blinds to maximize the amount of warmth generated by direct sunlight in work areas. But remember to close window coverings at night to keep the heat in.
Insulate It: Insulate water heaters and supply pipes to avoid wasting energy (and money). Also, insulating pipes and fire sprinkler systems can prevent costly water damage if they freeze and burst. Ceiling and wall insulation also lowers monthly utility bills.
Seal It: Ensure that windows are closed, properly caulked and not cracked or broken.
Decoration in Moderation: Planning on outdoor holiday lighting displays at your business? Save on energy by using a lighting timer to shut them off during off-hours. Use LED holiday lights, which consume 99 percent less energy than traditional lights. Take the lighting displays down right after the holidays, too.
Prevent Ice Dam(age)s: Avoid costly damage from ice dams by ventilating your attic, insulating your attic floor, and installing an ice-and-water barrier under your roof covering.
Be an Energy Star: ENERGY STAR® products help you save on utility costs. Case in point: ENERGY STAR heating and ventilation units are 20 to 30 percent more efficient than older models.
Good Maintenance = Savings: Ensure that your heating and ventilation systems are well-maintained and finely tuned. Keep ducts clean and replace filters.

Power carving tools by
AutoMach, Wecheer, Flexcut,
Foredom, and
gouges and chisels are ones
that can be attached to a
reciprocating power carving
tool. These machines generate
thousands of very short
strokes per minute yielding
much better control than using
a few mallet strokes. It is a
great way to remove large
amounts of waste wood in a
short amount of time. People
with limited strength in their
hand and arms find these
machines indispensable. Some
machines offer greater power
and can accommodate larger
tools more efficiently without
heating up while working for
long periods of time. The size
of the work and hardness of
the wood will determine how
powerful a machine is needed
to push the gouges.

DawgNation is taking a position-by-position look at a number of the 2014 prospects whose profile pages fans might want to add as favorites. Here is a look at the outside linebackers Georgia has offered or has on its radar.
Needs: 1-2, Committed: none
Offers: Georgia has offered two outside linebackers in the Class of 2014. The Bulldogs likely will lose Jarvis Jones to the NFL, and Cornelius Washington is a senior this year. Having signed four outside linebackers in 2012, and with two more committed in the Class of 2013, the Bulldogs likely will be judicious with offers.
Rashaan Evans (Auburn, Ala./Auburn) -- Evans already has close to 20 offers from major programs in the Southeast, including the likes of Alabama, Georgia, Florida State and LSU. But it is his Auburn offer that might be the undoing of all the schools interested in the 6-foot-4, 215-pound linebacker. His parents, sister and a number of aunts and uncles all graduated from Auburn, and he lives right there on the Plains. He did visit Georgia for the Bulldogs' contest with Tennessee and called the experience "eye-opening." He liked the fans and atmosphere at Georgia.
Korie Rogers (Buford, Ga/Buford) -- Buford High School has been quite the pipeline of talent for Georgia, and the Bulldogs coaching staff hopes that trend continues with Rogers. The 6-2, 218-pound athlete picked up his offer from Mark Richt at a 7-on-7 tournament this past summer in Athens, Ga. Rogers also has offers from Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Penn State, East Carolina and Louisiana-Lafayette. He could also factor as an inside linebacker for the Bulldogs.
Bryson Allen-Williams (Ellenwood, Ga./Cedar Grove) -- A true national prospect, Allen-Williams has offers from coast to coast. USC, Utah, Missouri, Penn State, Florida, Boise State, Maryland and South Carolina are just some of the 14 programs that have extended verbal offers to the 6-3, 233-pound junior. The ESPN Watch List member normally plays on the defensive line but recently tried a stint at linebacker, where his quick burst proved quite effective. Allen-Williams said that UCLA, South Carolina, Washington and USC are talking to him the most.
Dante Sawyer (Suwanee, Ga./North Gwinnett) -- Sawyer plays with a hand down for now, but at the next level he could easily play outside linebacker. The 6-3, 250-pound defensive end has offers from Ohio State and North Carolina, and many more are expected. He has been invited to multiple camps, and he attended Dawg Night at Georgia. Sawyer recently received 50 letters from FSU and took a visit to Alabama, where he spoke with coach Nick Saban.
Lorenzo Carter (Norcross, Ga./Norcross) -- Carter is a tall, two-sport athlete who has switched from concentrating on basketball to readying himself for a football career at the next level. The 6-5, 225-pound junior already sports offers from Clemson, Florida State, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Penn State, Arkansas, Miami, Georgia Tech, Oklahoma State and Syracuse. He has made multiple trips to Alabama and Georgia and plans to visit the Bulldogs again.
Andrew Williams (McDonough, Ga./Eagles Landing) -- An ESPN Watch List member as well, Williams is one of the most coveted players in the Peach State for next year. His 12 offers include Alabama, USC, Florida, Florida State and Texas A&M. The 6-4, 230-pound defender set a season goal of 25 sacks, and at the start of November he had racked up 19.

Sorry for the corny title but it seems like a lot of the discussions about Forest Hills are outdated.
Few questions...
Places for good delivery? I get Chinese, pizza, taco, Japanese menus at my door all the time but few places I tried...are really bad! (Tako Sushi? Wow, their fish is so not fresh...and I ordered from some Mexican place and their nachos...let's just say I can make better ones...I've ordered from Primadonna's pizza place and it wasn't fantastic either)
Are there any Korean or Vietnamese restaurants in Forest Hills?
Also...where can I even get the delivery menu's?
For Brooklyn/Manhattan restaurants, I've used Menupages.com...is there no equivalent site for Queens restaurants?
Food around Forest Hills have been totally disappointing...delivery-wise.
It's been so bad that I sometimes get a take out from Manhattan on my way home and heat it up!

wikiHow to Access Smart Stay Using the Notification Panel on a Samsung Galaxy Device
Annoyed at your screen dimming or even turning completely off right in the middle of reading an important article on your phone? The sensor on the front of Samsung Galaxy devices adds extraordinary features to the phone, such as the Smart Stay feature. This feature will keep your phone's screen turned on while you're looking at it.
1Navigate to your home screen. This can be done by pressing the home button at the bottom of your screen.
- If you have a locked device, input your encryption details on the lock screen. There are many different ways to lock your device including phrases to unlock it, numerical pins, swipe patterns and face unlock.
2Open the Notification Panel. Place your finger on the center of the status bar located at the top of the screen and slide it downwards to open the Notification Panel.
- The status bar contains icons with information across the top of the phone such as the battery signifying how much life your phone has left, whether or not you are connected to a wi-fi or data signal and a clock to show the time.
3Locate the Smart Stay quick toggle. All quick toggles are easily identified by their name tags and icons. The Smart Stay icon has an eye as the icon. You may have to slide the quick toggle settings to the left to expose more toggles.
- If you are running Android 5.0 lollipop, a quick way to access the quick toggle panel is to slide down the status bar using two fingers.
- For phones running previous versions of Android, after you've pulled down the notification drawer from the status bar, you can slide your finger down from the status bar a second time to flip over to the quick toggle panel.
4Tap the Smart Stay quick toggle option. Once activated, the Smart Stay toggle in the Notification Panel will become highlighted and a greyed out icon will appear in the status bar.
- You will be able to tell when Smart Stay is in use when the eye in the status bar changes from grey to white like the other icons.
- If you want to disable Smart Stay, tap the Smart Stay toggle in the notification panel. Once Smart Stay is disabled, its icon in the status bar will disappear.

Late-night entertainment
I pity the children who never experienced the joy of listening to the poor-quality broadcasts of obscure AM radio stations late at night, which consist more of static than anything else. Some of my fonder early teenage memory consist of trying to tune in all kinds of radio stations from around the world with varying success. I remember trying to stay awake in bed one night until 3 a.m. so that I could listen to the famous Wolfman Jack on AFN. I fell asleep though. Then I tried to program a tape recorder to record it during the night, but there was nothing but static on the tape the next morning. And I also remember the number radio stations broadcasting obscure information to Russian spies worldwide, and me and my friends trying to decipher them without much success.
Back in the early 1980s, one of the more popular radio shows for teens started at 10:06 p.m., which was already past my bedtime, so I'd listen to it secretly, either with the volume very very low, or even under the blanket. Oddly, I don't remember much about that show or what exactly they broadcast, the usual chart toppers, I suppose.
What I do remember though was the show that followed immediately afterwards, from 11:05p.m. to midnight. It was called Musik zum Träumen ("music to dream by"), and it was just plain weird. In retrospect I now know that it was a mixture of orchestral easy listening stuff with a generous selection of jazz thrown in for good measure. I'd often keep the radio on for a while into that show just because it was unlike anything else I usually listened to. It was a slow kind of music, sometimes with what sounded like really strange instruments to me (it was a while until I learned about vibes and jazz guitar, let alone mellotrons or theremins), and I remember I found it spooky because it was so oddly unfamiliar. It was more like music to have nightmares by because the strange tunes seemed to reach sections of your subconscious that no other music could touch.
I kept a peculiar fondness for this kind of music. I still like some of those spooky late-night orchestral arragements, and there's nothing like a dose of mellow jazz late in the evening. Coming across jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery almost 30 years later was something of a revelation, as he seemed to be playing exactly that kind of music, only even more interesting — probably because my musical tastes had expanded so that I could appreciate jazz in the meantime.
Or had they? Oddly enough, the feeling whenever I listen to this music, whether it's Montgomery or some other jazz musician of the kind (although it works best with Montgomery, and perhaps the mellower Chet Baker), it's almost as if I get caught in a time warp, and whatever time it is, the clock suddenly seems to set itself to 11:05p.m. and no matter where I really am I seem to be transported to my old bed, and there I am, listening to that radio broadcast with the same kind of weird, slightly spooked fascination. And one day I realised that it's not that I learned to appreciate jazz at some point in my life, it's more that it spooked its way into my subconscious back then with the radio broadcast and simply worked its way from the inside out.
And it's not as if it forced itself in. There was always the "off" switch which I used a lot with other radio shows. No, I let it in willingly all the time without even knowing why.Posted by Horst on April 27, 2005 09:40 PM to my so-called life | Tell-a-friend

"musik zum träumen" was amazing. actually, in retrospect, a substantial part of the music I have been listening to for the last 20 years can be backtracked directly to two radio shows. one was "music box", the other was "musik zum träumen".
I miss the variety of old fm radio. until the late eighties, ö3 covered more different stuff than the whole landscape of private radios does today. what a pity.
I just listened to a Chet Baker live CD I bought in Brussels, and it was _so_ like "Music zum Träumen" -- I felt like I was caught in a time warp. But it does explain my odd fascination with Chet Baker and Wes Montgomery.
me too, me too iniated into jazz; but for the heck of it i can't remember the name of the 'progressive' show that aired at 10, after the news. oh, i actually did right now: 'treffpunkt studio 4'.
Who said anything about a "progressive" show? I said it was "a popular radio show for teens".
guess i got the decades mixed up. there was a point in time though when there was either a late music box or they re-aired it at night. or whatever. i hardly ever listen to the radio these days. miss it, kinda.

Over the past month I've had 3 blood pregnancy tests, a full std screening, both types of ultrasound and a pap smear because of my irregular periods. I got 3 calls saying the results were negative and or normal. So I thought everything was fine, until today.
I just got a call from the doctor saying my pap smear was abnormal and they scheduled me for a colposcopy next week. They wouldn't tell me what the abnormal meant or what a colposcopy is, all they said was I would get a pamphlet in the mail.
I'm 21 and the only reason I went to this OB/GYN facility is because they said they listen to patients and wanted us to be involved in our care, but they don't seem too concerned about informing me on what all this means.

Hi artzombie and welcome to ehealth...A colposcopy is a is a medical diagnostic procedure to examine an illuminated, magnified view of the cervix and the tissues of the vagina and vulva...The reason for this is that many premalignant lesions and malignant lesions in these areas have discernible characteristics which can be detected through this examination... It is done using a colposcope, which provides an enlarged view of the areas, allowing the colposcopist to visually distinguish normal from abnormal appearing tissue and take directed biopsies for further pathological examination.... The main goal of colposcopy is to prevent cervical cancer by detecting precancerous lesions early and treating them....
I can understand your concern, yet unfortunately many institutions are so busy that they fail to inform us patients of what is going to happen...It's really a way to check on us and make sure all is well...I hope this helps...Take care...

Video Proof That Walmart Ice Cream Sandwiches Really Don't Melt
There's been a lot of talk lately about the woman, who after buying a box of Walmart's Great Value ice cream sandwiches, accidentally left them outside overnight. Then, the next morning, she found that they'd barely melted at all. So, is this a true tale or just the latest internet hoax?
It's the big question of the summer of 2014! Walmart Great Value ice cream: Will it or won't it melt if you leave it in the sun? This video, for better or worse, gives the answer.

Master Gunnery Sergeant Thomas Beckett (Tom Berenger) is the US Marine Corps' most decorated sniper. Having taken out warlords, drug czars and assassins, he has over seventy confirmed kills in his long and illustrious career. Beckett is hired by NSA officials William Avery (Denis Arndt) and Richard Addis (William Duffy) to perform a covert operation to eliminate a suspected terrorist. The assignment is intensified when the real purpose of the mission turns out to be something other than what Beckett was told and the terrorist turns out to be Paul Finnegan (John Doman), a friend of Beckett's who was presumed dead. Finnegan's death was a fraud and he slowly emerged as a criminal force and a danger to the world. With only one chance to take him out, it's up to Beckett to take the shot.

Groomer Has It: Would You Agree to this Challenge?
Even if you didn't catch the latest episode of Groomer Has It, I've still got a question for you. The remaining contestants had an interesting challenge to find their own cover models at the Long Beach Dog Park . . . that meant convincing the owner to entrust a beloved pooch in their experienced grooming hands.
It's like I can hear the voices of Clinton and Stacy from What Not to Wear: be prepared to give yourself over mind, body, and total wardrobe . . . which, for a dog, would be all the fur on his back. On the one hand, competitive groomers often do some wacky styles using shears and (safe) dyes so who knows what you'd come back to, but who doesn't want a celebripup and that hair will grow back . . . eventually. If you were confronted with this opportunity (and chance of fame) at the dog park, would you agree or refuse?
