TEDDY's RATING:
Sometimes I think that EPCOT is probably not the most popular of Walt Disney World's theme parks. Even though, based on attendance numbers, it is the fifth most popular theme park in the world. I think kids prefer the Magic Kingdom. Other adults may like Disney's Hollywood Studios because of the rides or the Animal Kingdom for the, well, animals. But I like EPCOT the best. Maybe it's because I love to travel and while at EPCOT I get to travel to 11 different countries, under the sea, into space and back in time in just a few hours. And maybe it's because it's never too crowded.
EPCOT is an acronym for "Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow." Although it's not called that anymore, it describes Walt Disney's original vision for the site that is now the entire Walt Disney World Resort. He envisioned a community of the future, even before the Magic Kingdom was built. But after his death, the company decided to take another direction and give EPCOT a feeling more like a World's Fair.
As you probably already know, EPCOT is divided into two distinct sections, Future World and World Showcase.
In World Showcase, the architecture of each pavilion is inspired by real buildings from each country. They really are quite beautiful. I usually spend most of my time in World Showcase experiencing the sights and sounds and meeting people from around the world. Most of the cast members in World Showcase are from outside the US. I do enjoy meeting and talking to them. They usually have great stories to tell about their countries.
Then there's the music. Pretty much any day of the week you can hear music from Morocco, Norway, Germany, Japan, Mexico and Canada. One of my favorite bands is Off Kilter. They're a Celtic Rock band that play in the Canada pavilion. You may not think that a bagpipe can rock out, but it can. These guys put on a great show. I have all their CDs. The British Invasion, in the United Kingdom pavilion, was another favorite. But sadly, after 15 years, they stopped performing in 2011. Plans are in the works to get another band to replace them.
And then during the annual Flower and Garden Festival (Spring) and Food and Wine Festival (Autumn) the American Gardens Theater hosts all different kinds of musical groups. The Flower Festival's "Flower Power" concert series includes music from the '60s and '70s like Davy Jones from The Monkees, The Grass Roots, Chubby Checker, and Jose Feliciano. The Food and Wine Festival's "Eat to the Beat" concert series includes performers like Taylor Dane, Starship, Jon Secada and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. All concerts are free with park admission.
And don't forget the food from around the world. I especially enjoy Les Chef De France which has delicious French onion soup and desserts only the French can make. I just recently discovered a fabulous alcoholic beverage in Japan called Tokyo Sunset, a blend of coconut rum, peach schnapps, banana liqueur and pineapple juice. Super yummy.
But when it comes to the food at EPCOT, the best is experienced at the Food and Wine Festival. You can partake of delectable delicacies from more than 20 countries. I never miss the Cheddar Cheese Soup and the Maple Fudge in Canada, Belgium's Belgian waffles, and Sweden's Swedish meatballs. All are served tapas style so you can sample up to 75 different dishes during your trip around the world.
On October 1, 2012, EPCOT will celebrate its 30th anniversary. Now, some of the attractions are a bit outdated, but they are refurbishing and reimagining new attractions all the time.
On the Future World side, Spaceship Earth has been updated with a new interactive ending. The old World of Motion attraction was revamped into Test Track. Horizons became Mission: Space. The Land pavilion was overhauled to include Soarin', an attraction that became very popular at Disney's California Adventure. The Living Seas became a showcase for the movie "Finding Nemo." The Universe of Energy was retooled by adding an amusing introduction, "Ellen's Energy Adventure" with Ellen DeGeneres.
Around World Showcase, Canada's Circlevision 360 film "Oh, Canada" has also been revamped and now stars actor Martin Short. New restaurants have been added to Italy and Mexico.
There are a few things I do miss from the original list of attractions. The first 3-D movie at EPOCT, called "Magic Journeys," was amazing. Maybe it's because that was the first 3-D movie I had seen that really blew me away. Kitchen Kabaret in The Land, although pretty silly, was fun. And the entire Wonders of Life pavilion is no more. Although I wasn't a big fan of "Body Wars," I did like some of the other parts of the Wonders of Life.
Before EPCOT even opened, the park gave out a full color artist's rendering book with artwork depicting each pavilion and attraction. I still have that book. It's very cool to look at it and see how the park turned out. It's pretty much as the Imagineers envisioned. Although, some attractions never made it past the "coming soon" stage like World Showcase pavilions for Israel, Africa and Spain. Africa is represented by a refreshment station, but is of course a huge part of Animal Kingdom now.
I would have to say that my favorite parts of EPCOT, besides the music and munchies, are Spaceship Earth, the Dinosaur portion of the Universe of Energy, Soarin' and Mission: Space, but not right after a meal!

You have to admit – your finances, like your health, could always be better. Thanks to bills, daily expenses, recreational activities et al, your hard earned money can evaporate rather quickly. While you may not pay much attention to it, it's important to realise just how your health is interrelated with your wealth and how poor health can drastically impact your finances.
Some of the most common health factors which affect your finance are your sleep routine, what you eat, exercise, your stress levels, and even your state of mind. Here's how these health factors, when studied individually, can affect your bank account:-
1. How sleep affects finance
Scientifically speaking, sleeping for just 4 to 5 hours a day can drastically affect your body and mind. Your body needs time to recover, and not giving it enough time to do so can lead to fatigue, lethargy and a lack of focus. Therefore, your ability to make appropriate decisions and evaluate work accurately is affected. All of this means more sick days and low performance at the office which can ultimately play havoc with your job security. Sick days could lead to a loss in pay, rise in medical bills and even loss of business if you have your own company.
The solution:
Sleeping for 7-8 hours a day increases your cognitive functions and boosts memory capacity. A good night's sleep can help you be more alert at work. It also helps keep the body's functions in check and thus, helps you stay healthy reducing your sick days, distractions at work and the feeling of listlessness, all of which could positively affect your performance. Keep that old adage in mind – early to bed, early to rise makes you healthy, wealthy and wise.
2. How diet affects finance
Today, most office-goers tend to eat out a lot. Often, this is simply due to lifestyle challenges like not having the time to cook. In today's fast-paced world, it's nothing new, nor can it be helped. However, not having control of what goes into the food you eat can be a problem for your health and the expenses of eating out frequently can also become a burden on your bank account.
The solution:
With prices and taxes being as high as they are, avoid spending money on restaurants and take-out. These days there are plenty of healthy and inexpensive tiffin services available in most locations. Since they're planned meals, you get quite a few options and given that it's home cooked, the food is nutritious too. You could also look for cooks in the vicinity of your home, to cut down on outside food expenses. You can't go wrong with these options; after all, what's the point in putting your bank account on a diet.
3. How exercise can affect your finance
Exercise is not an easy task but proves worthy in the long haul. Skipping a daily exercise routine may seem like the easy way out, but you will be sacrificing more than just a smaller pant size in the future. Exercising regularly helps enhance confidence and helps you stay alert to make smarter financial decisions. It can also help sharpen your memory. For some, joining the gym could also be expensive and an added financial burden to take on.
The solution:
It's not necessary to hit the gym every day but it is important to get some exercise. Try walking for at least 20-30 minutes each day, either as part of your daily commute, at night after your meal or just a quick walk around the office premises or neighbourhood. You could even a save a little money if you could walk or cycle to work (if you live close enough, of course). Taking public transport will also give you an opportunity to walk around a little to and from your office and saves fuel costs. Fuel prices and traffic jams are high and the combination can cause your bank account to shudders.
4. How Stress Can Affect Your Finance?
Stress is rampant these days due to our speedy lifestyles and plenty of other factors. It can seriously affect your mental and physical health and be detrimental to office life as it can reduce productivity. It also takes a toll on your bank account – for one, some consider shopping (online or offline) as a way to blow off steam and then there's food, one of man's most ardent stress busters. These are certainly not the best options for dealing with stress.
The solution:
There are plenty of things to do to get rid of stress that doesn't cost a thing and are immensely satisfying for your health. For starters, a good work out, run or walk is a great way to release tension; discussing your problems with your loved ones can also make you feel better; so can reading a good book. It's important to find healthy ways to deal with your stress; spending your hard earned money is not one of them and will almost certainly lead to more stress when the bills come in.
5. How depression can affect your finance
Stress is not only a mental illness that affects health; depression is a major contender too. Research shows that if you are depressed you can end up spending more than you need. The negative emotion or sadness leads you to overspend, possibly in the hope to "buy happiness". Depression can also be the cause of bad financial decisions and can make it harder to manage your money effectively. The University of Bristol, in the UK, found that people with debts, who are over 50, are eight times more likely to suffer mental health problems than those whose are living comfortably, and debt-free.
The solution:
A method called 'snowball' is what you can use for handling debt and the depression that comes with it. List all of your debt; rank it according to its highest interest rate. Tackle highest paid interest rate debt with full force. After you're done with that, work your way down the list. Continue until you become debt free. Irrespective, it's vital that you also lean on your family and friends to help you handle depression better. Find ways to keep yourself busy; get a hobby and void medication and such to help you cope. You can consider a health insurance and way to stay active that can help you earn rewards.
It's vital that you're physically and mentally healthy in order to deal with your financial problems. These are simple methods to help you cope and avoid both health and monetary problems from coming up in your later years.

What's in my shopping basket – Richard Collisson
What's in my shopping basket ?
As I work in the Health Zone clinic, I do some of my weekly shopping in the shop. I always choose organic if I have the choice and Healthzone sells many organic products you can't buy in a supermarket. Here are some of my favourites that I would recommend.
My kids eat tons of eggs and Healthzone sell the best free range organic eggs in Wimbledon at a competitive price with the supermarkets, but much better quality, flavour and bigger too. Although supermarkets sell free range organic eggs they are still mass produced and the yolks always look anaemic and pale to me, so whatever they are feeding the chickens can't be very nutritious.
I like to cook curries and always use organic Coconut oil, Copura and Biona are the best value brands in Healthzone. Unlike polyunsaturated oils, such as almond oil, coconut oil being a saturated oil doesn't get rancid and is good for massage and dry skin. Coconut oil is also the source of caprylic acid, a supplement sold for treating Candida.or thrush, but coconut oil works equally as well.
My kids like to chew gum when we travel on holiday, but most conventional chewing gum, instead of sugar, contains the artificial sweetener aspartame which has been linked to brain tumours, and has been shown to accumulate in the brain. It's build up in the nervous system does however cause involuntary twitchy eyelids in people who chew a lot of gum. Luckily Peppersmith mints & chewing gum do not contain aspartame or sugar so avoid this problem. Other items my kids like for travelling are dried mango and Panda Licorice bars.

Book Reviews
Caitlin Morrow from Amazon
Recommended for Raptor lovers. I've done my best to read quite a few books in the subject of raptors, both in the wild, in falconry, and in other captive situations. I like Nick Fox's book because it covers a broad range of subjects in easy-to-understand detail, is well-organized, and has plenty of attractive picture--which aren't essential but are, in my opinion, enjoyable. I recommend Understanding The Bird of Prey above any of the other hawk books available on Amazon for those particularly interested in falconry, and captive raptor management (including behavior).
JDM from Amazon
Quintessential work. Of the 18-20 or so falconry books I have read to date, this is by far the most comprehensive, informative and useful. From basic anatomy and physiology to training and flying/hunting birds of prey, it covers it all in wonderful detail. Dr Fox's many years of experience with so many different species and in so many different places and cultures lends him a unique perspective and incredible insight into the sport and the birds we use. If you wish to understand birds of prey and how they should be trained and handled for falconry, you really should own this book.

Commentaries around
"Through devotion and surrender to Īśvara
and by following the eight limbs of Aṣṭāṅga Yoga,
the benefits of Samādhi are realised with as little effort
as it takes to hold a pea in the palm of your hand."
– T Krishnamacharya on Yoga Sūtra Chapter One verse 24
"Can these four Yoga Aṅga – Yama, Niyama, Āsana, Prāṇāyāma
– be practiced by everyone at every stage of life?
How often and how long should one practice?
How can we adapt our practice to changing circumstances?
These questions and others like them must be answered by a competent teacher,
according to each student's individual circumstances."
– T Krishnamacharya's commentary to Yoga Sūtra Chapter One verse 30
"The practice which is Śodhana for the Antar Aṅga
is Antaraṅga Sādhana."
– T Krishnamacharya introduction to Yoga Sūtra Chapter Three
"Before launching on Antar Aṅga Sādhana,
one should be a Niṣṭhāvān in Bāhya Aṅga Sādhana.
If this earlier stage is very well established,
then only a teacher may teach Dhyāna."
– T Krishnamacharya 1984
"Dhyānam is the seventh Aṅga of the Aṣṭāṅga Yoga.
In order to experience Dhyānam, the sixth step,
Dhāraṇā, should have been practiced thoroughly."
– T Krishnamacharya on Dhyānam
"There are also fundamental differences between Yoga and Vedānta.
And, if at all we can link them, it is as follows:
Yoga is a means towards Vedānta for those who are interested.
Vedānta involves a lot of enquiry and reflection, and also demands the development of Bhakti, and, for both the mind and for the individual, Yoga is the means towards Bhakti.
Also, Vedānta is JñānaMārga, and a state of mind that is necessary for Jñāna can only come through the practice of Aṣṭāṅga."
– TKV Desikachar from lectures on 'The Yoga of T Krishnamacharya', given at Zinal, Switzerland 1981.
"Often Dhyāna fails because one is not able to reach the first stage,
the Pūrva Aṅga.
Often one wants to go to the second stage
without going through the first one,
and that is not possible."
– TKV Desikachar Madras December 19th 1988
"The arrangement of Yoga Sūtra Chapter Two involves four components:
1. Duḥkha – What is it that I want to avoid?
2. Avidyā/Saṃyoga – Association or from where has this come?
3. Kaivalya/Viveka – Where should we be in order to be free from this association?
4. Viveka/Aṣṭāṅga– What is the way?
What is the discipline that will give Viveka, not just for a moment, but there all the time?
This is the place of Yoga."
– TKV Desikachar January 9th 1999
"Suffering is the starting point for the Yoga journey of four steps from:
the symptom (Duḥkha or suffering);
through to the cause (Avidyā or illusion);
to the path (Kaivalya or independence);
and the means (Aṣṭāṅga or 8 limbed path) for Viveka or discrimination.
This fourfold process is at the heart of Yoga, Āyurveda and Buddhism."
"The Das Indriya or ten senses of experience and action,
whilst seen as belonging to the Bāhya Aṅga or five external limbs
in the eight limb Aṣṭa Aṅga Yoga of Patañjali,
are also the gateway to the Antar Aṅga or three internal limbs."

In an era of network connectivity and the ability to work from anywhere, places like Kuznya House can easily serve as a second home for their regulars. In today's world, restaurants and clubs have long since shifted their focus from what used to be their core functions: to feed and entertain. Kuznya House is the sort of place where you can spend practically the whole day: having meetings, hanging out, working, listening to music, taking in lectures or film screenings, and, of course, eating well, with something nice to wash it all down with. The accent on the idea of a home base is reflected throughout the interiors of Kuznya House. Preserving the historical layout, the space is arranged in three parts: a ballroom, with a bar, stage, and table seating that can be removed during concerts or other events; the Chef's Table and tea parlor, with its large, luxurious sofas surrounded by bookshelves. In summer there is a terrace, with a sweeping view of the island's lawn. The design elements and materials which give Kuznya House its unique look were selected with the help of archive photographs of apartment interiors of pre-revolutionary Saint Petersburg: elegant wooden panels; massive, lacquered cabinets and cupboards; decorative stoves, used to conceal the air ducts; comfortable sofas with Pavlovo Posad shawl motifs; rich velvet curtains, armchairs, and ottomans; and vintage lighting fixtures made from brass and porcelain from the Imperial Porcelain factory. These elements are complemented by 1970s furniture, including tables and chairs with leather cushions. In the ballroom and the Chef's Table you can find works by a young, but well-known artist from Saint Petersburg, Denis Ichitovkin, a realist painter. Particular attention was paid to sound and lighting solutions. Along the historical vaulted ceilings there is a mosaic of white tiles and 147 analogue bulbs, which can be programmed together with the rest of the lighting for evening events. The speakers and subwoofer are purpose-designed. Contact nab.

I'm sure that most people have heard of the book, The Artist's Way (link to the copy I bought on Amazon)…at least people in the creative arts field. It seems to come up all the time and it's no surprise, since more than 2 million copies have been sold…printed in 30+ languages all over the world. Most of the artists and bloggers out there have mentioned it being in their library and it has been recommended more than once to me.
I kept hearing about it…this guide to embracing your creativity and how it's a must read. I have to admit that I didn't really look into much at first, but then the title kept popping up in conversation, in passing, in recommendation by people I really admire. So I was constantly reminded of the book and at some point went ahead and ordered it online. Of course, I have the bad habit of ordering books immediately, with that rush of excitement and spark. But taking forever to actually get to reading them. Oops.
I obviously should learn some more self-control! But I love reading.. getting lost into a different world… and in nowadays I really enjoy self-help books. It's taken me a while to actually start, but I am finally reading through The Artist's Way.
I'm making the commitment to myself to get through the 12 weeks of chapters (theory+practice). I suppose that is why I'm blogging about it.
Saturdays will be my check-in days, to record my thoughts, reflect on my learnings and keep myself accountable, most of all. At the same time, I like the idea of sharing my experience, in hope that others might be inspired, might be aided in some way.
When I read the introduction, I honestly felt super uncomfortable. I had obviously not looked into the details of the book before making the purchase…an aspect I miss about actually going into a bookstore and flipping through a book before buying. Of course, the subtitle "Creativity as a Spiritual Practice" should have registered with me in some way. Cameron writes from a spiritual perspective referring to the Creator at times, even if the book is practical in the sense of teaching a course with practical exercises and tips/tools. For some reason, I had just not expected all the talk of spirituality and it sort of freaked me out. Umm, maybe I made a mistake. Just listening to the masses again, thinking I have to do what they do. Ugh. I'm just a sheep in the herd.
I kept reading and realized that I've always been a bit uncomfortable with spiritual-esque talk, because I grew up in a different type of atmosphere.
But I've come to realize that we all find faith in our own way, whether in an organized group or going solo. Because I don't hear it often in conversation, mentioning God and referring to Him sort of rings an extra bell for me…it's just a different thing I'm not used to. I was determined to work through it though…I didn't want to give up. Cameron sort of addresses my concerns when she writes that she is not asking me to believe in this or that… she see's creativity as a spiritual experience, so obviously she is writing about it from her perspective.
As I continued to read, I started feeling like she knew exactly how I felt. The examples she brought up and issues a creative will face…yup, that's me.
I really love how she wrote that "even if we look like functioning artists to the world, we feel we never do enough and what we do isn't right." Yes, yes! That's how I feel! And the fears that we face…those hideous thoughts like "If you haven't done it by now you never will…" – yes, they do plague my minds at times.
When someone is able to articulate your same feelings so well, you relate to them, acknowledge them and usually end up listening for more. I was also really touched by Cameron's personal story of how and why she started down the artist's way. She was a creative that was already amazingly successfully, but she realized that her life was a torturous chain of ups and downs. Creativity came and went and it was a painful existence. From necessity, she had to find a new creative path and it gives me hope to know that there are successful creative people out there that aren't tortured artists! I can take a look at my journey and see glimmering points, but also lots of low, frustrating canyons of despair. Does the creative life really have to be this crazy imbalanced rocky road? I really wish it did not have to be. I want to nurture my creative side, but also live a nice simple, calm life. Seriously, I'm boring like that… in the sense that I don't think it's boring. I think it's fine and dandy, darn it!
She wrote that we often resist what we most need…more words that convinced me to read onward.
As I continued, I also realized how easy the book is to read…page by page. Talk about a turnaround. I read up through the first week's lesson and was optimistic. And to think I might not have bought this book, were I to have read the introduction at the bookstore…probably would have been scared away. I guess that is why sometimes you give people books as gifts…it's that one step closer to getting them to pick it up and flip through!
So, feeling like I had been opened up to a new world, the first week of morning pages went by pretty easily. I had no issues writing stream of consciousness by hand, every morning. Rambling on as I do in my mind anyway. I had certainly heard of morning pages before…everyone talks about it, eh? I thought I understood what it was all about, but you get a much clearer picture when reading the book. Why you really need to do them, dare I say religiously. And so far, it has helped. It's like venting…at least for me it is right now. Maybe I'm just riding on the high of the beginnings of a project? We'll have to wait and see.
I wrote every morning and although sometimes it wasn't the first thing I did – got to take the puppy out and let everyone get ready and go off on their day. But then the house was quiet and I was able to write away…before continuing my day as normal. It really doesn't take long and I feel better. I suppose it's like talking to a good friend about things, but with morning pages you are talking to yourself or whoever…but no one ever has to know and you never have to read it again either. Sort of nice to have that outlet.
The outings prove a bit harder for me to get to, since I'm pretty much at home and in this neighborhood all the time. I don't drive here in Italy (not yet) and don't really get out that much by myself. The only exception is walking my puppy. Since I've had Vash, I've noticed how nice it is for me to just get out and take a walk. I've been forced to do it, but it's been a good thing. So more than anything else specific…I just take walks, sometimes take my camera to enjoy some photography and have a relaxing time outdoors. I understand the idea of artist dates…so perhaps I will just have to get creative in terms of nurturing my artist self. There are many ways to do it…
So after the first week, I feel like I've done a 180 from my original impression of the book. Although I understand that not everything works for everyone…learning new things is always beneficial. You take what you can from the lesson and apply it to your own unique situation and life. I know that people seen to either love this book or hate it. I feel that I will be able to learn and grow from this book, so I'm moving on ahead with it. I'm grateful to be able to have this book and to have the time to work through it. So I'm optimistic.

Have I Become Star Struck?
As you may or may not know, I'm kind of a celebrity hater. I don't actually hate the celebrities, just the fact that there is such culture as "celebrity". It could be I'm jealous. I've broken up with lots of girls, (or vice versa) and it was never on the news. I've flipped the bird to cameras before, but have never seen the pictures on the cover of a tabloid magazine. I've always thought people were people. Why should I care about strange, millionaires living thousands of miles away? So I was taken back when I felt the urge to become a weirdo, just like so many others grabbing at the coat tails of celebrities.
I just got done reading 'Sentences: The Life of MF Grimm', (an autobiography) written by Percy Carey, art and cover by Ronald Wimberly. I was blown away. This is one of the most interesting stories I have ever read. I won't "retell" the story, but to understand a little of where I'm coming from, the highlights of the book are: Kid from New York-Appears on Sesame Street-Almost signs recording contract as rapper-Gets shot, becomes paralyzed-Sells drugs, goes to prison… OK I'll stop there.
The part where I become confused is the feeling I got after I read it. I wanted to write a fan letter. A FAN LETTER, for cryin' in the night! What's wrong with me? This is how the letter went in my head:
Dear Mr. Carey,
I'm sure all psycho fan letters start out with the same line. "I've never written a letter like this before", but in this case it's true. I'd imagine that is always the second line in a psycho fan letter. Anyway, I read your book and I enjoyed it immensely, but I don't have to tell you that. I doubt you or anyone else would have released it, if it were a piece of crap.
It goes on for a bit, but I'll spare you. It was going to end with some kind of funny line that said if he was ever in the neighborhood to "drop by". WTF is wrong with me? I've become everything I fear and hate! I love how I assume that the voice who wrote the story is the voice that makes the man. I'm sure he'd love to come hang out with me, who wouldn't? I love how I naturally assume he could care in the least bit what I have to say. I love the fact that I think I'm the only one writing him a letter, as if he's waiting around the mailbox, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the postal carrier in hopes that today's the day a letter comes.
I just thought it was crazy that I could have been so swept up by his book. I just wanted to hear more stories, more details, more craziness.
Because to me that's all life is. Sitting in my lawn chair, watching the world go by in a crazy parade.
Hey Percy, do read my blog?
Egg On!

With more billionaires now than any other region, Asia has the potential to become a world leader in philanthropic giving, but is it really that easy? Susan Lingeswaran explores the intricacies of giving among the world's fastest-growing economies
When legendary Hong Kong actor Chow Yun-Fat—of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End fame—announced plans in late 2018 to give away his entire $715 million fortune to charity after his death, the country's media went into overdrive.
One Hong Kong newspaper called the announcement one of the biggest events in philanthropy to date. Another declared Chow, 63, the most selfless actor in the world and demanded other ultra-high net worth individuals in the region follow suit.
Flying in a private jet is the ultimate status symbol, but owning one isn't the only way to travel. Alison Ebbage considers the practical and cost-effective alternatives.
Private aviation solves the perennial time shortage issue perfectly and provides a luxe experience to those able to afford it. Today there are more options than ever—ownership, fractional ownership and charter, which in turn divides into different models too—depending on whether the charter is for the seat or the plane and whether the access is on a subscription or on-demand basis.

Anirudh Damani has a family history studded with a serious entrepreneurial pedigree.

Warren Buffett famously said: "It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it". These days, given the influence of social media and direct consumer feedback, the smallest issue can have widespread consequences for businesses. Not surprisingly, a survey by the Reputation Institute revealed that reputation is a top priority for 65% of business leaders. However, only 16% felt their organisation had the capability to manage their reputation comprehensively.

Elsie waits eagerly for the evening paper, knowing that the street is to be mentioned. She and Concepta read the piece when it is delivered. Jack and Annie ready for the evening opening. Jack glances through the paper and reads the story:
- "Kenneth Barlow, 24-year old schoolmaster of 3, Coronation Street jeered at the simple pleasures of his homely neighbours in a scathing 2,000 word attack in the left wing political review 'Survival'. Summing up the attitude of the people he lives and works among, Barlow described them as 'lazy-minded, politically ignorant, starved of a real culture and stubbornly prejudiced against any advance in human insight, and scientific progress' ".
Annie thinks there's a great deal of truth in the words. Len and Harry grow very angry over the article and Len hints at getting back by hitting Ken as he rages in the bar. Martha feels insulted by the words. As Ken and Frank have a shave for the evening, Ken admits he didn't want any of the locals to read the magazine. A debate rages in the Rovers between Len, Harry and Albert. Albert walks out and goes to No.3 where he warns Frank about the newspaper publicity. Frank is livid and rages at Ken for showing him up in front of the neighbours but Ken stands his ground about the way that people are treated and yet don't care about the fact. Ken storms out when Frank tells him he's to write nothing else. Albert warns Frank not to frequent the Rovers as the atmosphere is bad. Harry thinks the neighbours should write a rejoinder to the papers and starts to draft one but Len thinks he's wasting his time. Elsie visits Ken and warns him what Len and the others think, although she praises his writing. Despite Albert's warning, Frank goes to the Rovers and meets Len on the doorstep. A row breaks out when Len insults Ken and a fight almost starts. Jack, Albert and Harry have to step in. Frank goes home and Harry tells Concepta their trip to the pictures is off as he has to keep an eye on Len. Ken hears about the confrontation and decides to go to the Rovers himself to clear matters up. It doesn't work: Len rages at Ken for what they did for him with their war service. Ken tries to explain himself but Len hurls insults at him. Ken loses his patience and calls Len a "loud-mouthed, beer-swilling, moron". A furious fight breaks out which results in Ken getting knocked out. Len is thrown out by Jack as the shocked women tend to Ken.

Kaber trembled with anger, he is the king of the whole land, his laws are the law of the land, his words are the word of the master and this letter felt like someone just de-crowned him.
"Read again." His voice radiated his anger.
"My king hand this over to your priests, we will give an appropriate course of action." head priest Noni tried to direct his Maharaja's anger towards justice.
"There is no need for that, am I not able enough to be just Rishi Noni ?" Kaber forced a cap on his anger, of late everyone seemed to undermine his intellect and authority. All of them needs a lesson on Authority of the King, Kaber decided after conferring with his intellect.
"Pran prepare for a conference in Foreign Consultation room." Raja Kaber instructed.
Rishi Noni saw helplessly and trailed his Raja and his ministers to the room, with a large table in the center. The book keeper brought out a rolled sheets of paper.
"Here on the north east, the rock formation which supports the wall is climbable." Pran pointed in the paper, representing the map of fort Foringa.
"Only expert climbers can go over the wall here." Pran added.
"The Kathalia warriors of the Mellila forest will be appropriate for this task." Purv the war and tactics minister swooped in.
"But will they fight our war Maharaj. We had just settled a tax dispute with them, convincing them to pay the increased tax, in return of aiding them in war." Pran expressed his doubts.
"Even if the north eastern wall is breached, the soldiers will not be able go any further from their, they will die in the hands of hundreds of wall guards there."
"We need to breach one of the gates anyway. We will need to take our siege machines to the gates of Foringa fort. Only the Krit's trained bullocks can carry these big machines up the small hill to Foringa." Raja Kaber came up.
"That will not be enough Raja, they will always have the advantage of the fort. We will need our archers on wooden towers." Purv said.
"The Arkans can sorround the Foringa fort with wooden towers within a day and the Haat's poison on the arrow tips will fall everyone of their last warriors. And the princess Kartika and the Foringa fort will always be mine." A smile appeared on Kaber's face.
"The Haat's, Raja they are murderers. Their association can be very dangerous for anyone." Purva warned King Kaber.
"Did you forget whom you are talking to." Kaber's face turned red with anger.
"No my Raja I am only saying that, they are crooked. They don't abide by any rules of war, they don't fight for honor, they don't fight to win, they only fight to loot, vandalize and defile women. That's all I am saying my king, they do not qualify as warrior, they are only bandits. And their association with warriors never turned out to be good, they are not trust and respect worthy." This time Purva kept his eyes and voice down.
"I understand you Purva. Don't worry we won't let them near us, they will only get to trade with us. Pran make the arrangements, Tell the Kathalia their tax will be back to normal rates for a year, if they aid us. Tell the Krit's they will be free to trade with other kingdoms of this land for a year, if they aid us. The Arkan boats will be free to catch the fishes and trade along the Ganges river and take a letter to the Haat leader Ghuyan." King Kaber headed towards his throne room.
Rishi Noni cannot believe what is unfolding in front of his eyes, he reluctantly poured ghee from kushi, into the fire of Yoggo, he chanted the mantras and silently prayed to god to save the kingdom from this arrogant and foolish king. King Kaber sat on the another side of the fire pit, Rishi Noni easily caught that his King is day dreaming. From how much Rishi Noni has known about the politics of this eastern land of Bharat, after spending long 23 years as a Rishi Pradhan in this Kesharia kingdom, he can easily tell that his young king is playing with fire and so far Kaber has dismissed his suggestion boasting about the military prowess of his kingdom, Kesharia.
From the place of Yoggo, King Kaber took the garland, blessed by the gods and placed it around the neck of the stone statue of his mother, the late queen Kaberi, as Rishi Noni chanted mantras. After the respect was paid to the queen, King Kaber bellowed "Let the name of the kingdom of Kesharia fly high, let the name of the ancestors of Kesharia fly high, let us prove ourselves a worthy successor to them, Jai Maha Kali."
"Jai Maha Kali, Jai Maha Kali, Jai Jai Maha Kali." voices boomed together in every inch of Kesharia city.
As the contingent of armies departed towards Foringa fort, Rishi Noni's inside cried, he can hear mothers and wives mourning for their sons and husbands. As the most learned and wise man of the kingdom of Kesharia, the post of manager usually falls on Rishi Noni, whenever the king is unavailable. As Rishi Noni went for a security check, the barren streets looked blankly at him, the shopkeepers are wrapping up their business and it has only been noon. A day ago these streets were alive, full of people, arguing, bargaining, lecturing, joking and now a dead silence has covered the whole kingdom.
"Balki get out bands in the city and inform everyone that today bhajans of Sri Krishna will be held in the main temple and everyone is invited to come." Rishi Noni ordered his assistant.
Bhajans and songs of gods and goddesses were sung throughout the night for three days, after which the messenger came the news that the war has been won. An expression of joy reverberated in the whole city, the sound conchs arose one by one from every house of the city.
"Raja Kaber has asked for your presence in the battlefield, the fallen has to be cremated." The messanger relayed the information.
"Finally the battle opened his eyes for his duties, even the dead of the opposition army has to be cremated and that has been the tradition of the Keshari kingdom" Rishi Noni thought and smiled to himself.
After 3 hours of chariot ride, Rishi Noni reached the Foringa fort, blood had streamed down and formed a puddle at the base of the hill. Rishi Noni deftly avoided the puddle and streams of blood and made his way up towards the fort, sticking to the clean patches of rocks and grasses. At first he met the camp of Krit, their bullocks happily gnawed the grass, as their trainers kept the herd in a shape. Dressed in armors the bullocks appeared like tanks, capable to mowing down any number of enemies, within a minute. As he passed the Krit camp, he noticed that their casualty has almost been none.
The Kathalia camp is a bloodied mess, the soldiers had wounds and burn marks all over, but they didn't seem to care, drowned in their trade mark Kalthia wine, which they trade all over the land. Their weapons laid as a huge pile of metallic junks, covered in blood and poison, that gave out a filthy smell. Rishi Noni hurried passed their camp, drunk soldiers are never a good news. He soon bumped into logs of wood hastily constructed into shields and towers, the Arkan soldiers looked busy deconstructing their handiworks. Making his way through the wood works, Rishi Noni reached at the gates of the fort, Kesharia soldiers guarding the gate bowed their heads, as the sign of respect.
What lay beyond that gate are decapitated bodies, punctured by several wounds and a distraught King pacing in the courtyard and barking instruction to the soldiers, who seemed like trying to find something among the corpses. From the anger of the king, Rishi Noni concluded these must be all of those present in the fort, but he doubted the king will likely to find any recognizable part of the Princess, from the pile of body parts.
The King dropped on his knees tired, the soldiers looked un-interestingly in the pile of severed body parts, "Look closer", King Kaber yelled forcing his remaining strength to his throat.
Tired, the king left the fort shortly, leaving only a small party of soldiers to guard the fort, the soldiers somewhat made a large bed of fire and did a mass cremation, as Rishi Noni performed their last rites.
The next few weeks were of carnivals, melodramatic tales of the war were performed on the streets and crowds gathered to watch these performances with piqued interest, King Kaber soon forgot his loss, wet by the showers of praise heaped on him. Rishi Noni too found peace that everything cooled down to nothing, but this silence is just a message foretelling a disaster.
Rishi Noni was waken up from his sleep by loud sounds one night, he came out of his house to find his suspicion coming true, arrows flying all over the city and something banged loudly on the city gate, which soon fell. Shining metals rushed through the city trampling everything in their path, cries of death can be heard from up the walls, boulders and flaming woods fell all over the city, burning down houses and the livings alike. As the night inched closer towards dawn, the Kathalian, Krit and the Arkan soldiers were in all corners of the city.
King Kaber was dragged and brought to the town center, before beheading the king, the executioner shouted out loud.
"For colluding with the Haath and aiding them to plunder our citizens, King Kaber is sentenced to death."
As the sun came up the soldiers had left the city, the kingdom looked like a swamp made of blood, a disoriented Rishi Noni caught the sight of a creature moving towards him, sometimes on four legs and sometimes only on two, stumbling. The creature dumped itself at the feet of Rishi Noni, with a great effort Rishi pulled it up, on its legs and exclaimed "Balki".
"They didn't harm me guru ji, they left me to witness Hell. Only blood no water, my throat is as dry as wood, they dumped the corpses in wells. Guru ji only death in every corner." Balki broke down.
Rishi Noni brought out a vessel from inside his hut and slung a piece of cloth over his shoulder, tied like a bag.
"Here drink.", Balki emptied the whole vessel in his mouth.
"Lets go Balki, nothing is left here now." Rishi Noni dragged his devotee, through the ripped out city gate, along with him.
As they walked in the fresh air away from the stink of death in the city, both the Guru and his devotee got hold of their bearing.
"Your lessons about arrogance and nurturing of 'I' in us, is complete today." Rishi Noni said.
"Balki, I have been in this land since childhood. These kingdoms had both wars and pleasantries with one another. But one thing they didn't had is trust, they could never tolerate the thought of going to war, depending on one another. "
"But our king taught them that, right guruji. His arrogance and ego brought this on us." Balki completed his Gurus thoughts.
"Rightly said, if not for our label of priests, we would have been slaughtered too." Rishi Noni affirmed his disciple's understanding of the situation.


text: About 4 months ago we had to move my grandma, who has Alzheimer's, out of her home and across the country to live with my family at least for a little while. It's been a rocky move, as she's lived in a small town in her house for probably 35 years, and now she's in a city and house she's never even visited. She's had anxiety and probably some undiagnosed delusional disorders most of her life so we were initially unsure if her behaviors were from that or her Alzheimer's, but we've accepted her behavior disturbances are a lovely combination of both. Anyway before coming here, she had a nice routine at her own house, could get around, dress, and use the toilet on her own. Now, she needs help with all of these things. I wished we never had to move her, but we now may be able to move her back to her home. My question is, would some of this decline we've seen perhaps reverse a little bit once she's back in her familiar house? Or has it been too long since she left and the damage is done?

After two very prolific months of French touch music productions with the Justice live album Access All Arenas and the Daft Punk album Random Access Memories, the end of May provided us with a nice surprise: the return of the French group Superfunk, pioneers of this '90s movement.
On Monday, May 27th, the French duo from Marseille chose to announce their official comeback by launching their first new EP of a long series to come, heralding the end of 2013 with a very promising album. Superfunk, known for many hits in the early 2000s such as "Lucky Star" featuring Ron Carroll , set the bar very high by presenting us with this new top quality EP.
The duo explains that their new album will be more accessible to their early French touch influences, which are "French Touch", bringing with it their current vision of electronic music gained in recent years. According to Superfunk member Mike 303, it'll be a real return to their roots.
You can watch the official video of the Disco Robots EP, done by Mike 303, below:https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=c-BZJmnR56Y

State Representative Mark Romanchuk (R-Ontario) is encouraging residents of the 2nd Ohio House District to apply for open positions in the distribution warehouse of School Specialty, Inc.
School Specialty is an education company that provides innovative and proprietary products, programs and services to help educators engage and inspire students. The distribution center will have shifts available from March through August in a casual work environment—a great summer job for students.
"Anytime there is an employment opportunity in Richland County, I'm glad to make more people aware of it," Rep. Romanchuk said. "Whether someone is in desperate need of job or just wants some extra cash over the summer, this is something that I hope those I represent will look into."
Applicants must be 17 years old and can apply at www.schoolspecialty.com, where they must go to the "Careers" section, browse career opportunities and enter 961 in the box next to "Requisition Number" (or they can search by state).
The summer of 2018 brought with it another boost to Ohio's economy. That boost came from the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation. For the fourth time since 2013, the agency is returning $1.5 billion in premiums to Ohio's private and public employers. This year's rebate is the largest in 20 years and is due to falling claims, wise investments, and smart business decisions.
State Representative Mark Romanchuk (R-Ontario) today applauded Governor Kasich for signing legislation that designates February 3rd as "Charles Follis Day" in honor of the first African American professional football player.
State Representative Mark Romanchuk (R-Ontario) was honored by the NFIB, the state's leading small business association in Ohio, with its prestigious Guardian of Small Business Award, along with Senator Kris Jordan (R-Delaware). The recognition is for their outstanding efforts to support small business issues in the Ohio Legislature.
State Representative Mark Romanchuk (R-Mansfield) presented a resolution on behalf of the Ohio House to the Mansfield Area Y in celebration of its 150th anniversary.

This two-part program begins with a dramatic re-enactment (featuring student readers) of the trial of Minoru Yasui, who was convicted in federal court in Portland, Oregon, in 1942 of defying military orders that eventually resulted in the internment of some 120,000 Japanese-Americans, the majority of whom were U.S. citizens. Portions of the trial, including the direct and cross-examinations of Minoru Yasui, will be presented, drawn from the actual trial transcripts.
The program will continue with a discussion of issues raised by the Yasui case that still resonate today: What does it mean to be a United States citizen? Does the administration of justice bend under the weight of national crisis? To what extent must civil rights and civil liberties give way to the needs of national security? May individual liberty be restricted in the name of preserving liberty for all?
The event is open to the public. Additional details at http://www.princeton.edu/ams/events/
Sponsored by the Office of the Provost, the Program in American Studies, the Center for African American Studies, the Department of English, the Program in Law and Public Affairs, and the James Madison Program.

Join Us With Fonix at ISE, Amsterdam Plus The Latest in Display Tech
In just a few days, ISE - the world's largest AV systems integration show - will take place at RAI Amsterdam. The event, held from 6-9 February promises to inspire exhibitors and attendees alike with the very latest cutting-edge technology, products and solutions being produced for both channel and end-user professionals (all supported by an impressive programme of educational extras).
Our Managing Director Sam will be joining leaders in LED screen installation, curved screens, structures and AV production equipment, Fonix, at Stand 14-H100. Sam will be on hand to answer your queries, advise on flight case design and requirements and to showcase a small selection of our custom hospitality flight cases.
One of the most popular pieces of technology currently emerging and expected to take centre stage at ISE is digital signage – one of our stand partner Fonix' specialities. Flightcase Warehouse just completed a large scale project for signage and display screen innovators, Giant iTab, so we very much understand the scope and demand for kit of this nature. Popular across a wide range of industries, in part due to its flexibility and customer-engaging nature, digital signage tech is currently changing the game in how we interact with audiences.
For example, in the retail sector, brands are finding that customers are more likely to respond to touch screen interface point of sale when looking for further information on a product or ordering an out of stock item than approaching a salesperson. This isn't a negative comment on customer service though. It demonstrates that consumers in today's world are constantly looking for experience over a product, and these digital platforms are providing exactly that.
The same can be said for the events industry. At ISE, we expect to see mountains of innovative examples to keep attendees engaged and to help create those memorable moments. Take emerging facial recognition technology, for instance. Although still under development, this software has the potential to map and track a visitor throughout an event or location and monitor their responses – demonstrating how to improve and deliver in different and more effective ways in the future. Creepy, or cool? You decide!
Of course, this is just one example of how digital signage is revolutionising the world around us. We're now starting to see screen and AV technology combine to form fantastic digital environments such as virtual changing rooms and virtual reality experiences. Even we're getting in on the action – keep an eye out for the Flightcase Warehouse rolling advert on the Fonix curved screens as you enter the RAI!
If you have requirement for protective kit to protect the technologies and gear you use to create these same events experiences, don't hesitate to contact Flightcase Warehouse. With a range of different off the shelf and bespoke options available, our team craft the perfect protective solution for any piece of equipment. Just call +44 (0) 1827 60009 or email firstname.lastname@example.com to speak with us.
