Refining crystal structures with experimental 13C NMR shift tensors and lattice-including electronic structure methods†
Large differences are found in the quality of crystal structures obtained from different diffraction methods. The most accurate studies identify all atomic sites, including hydrogens, while others lack even the resolution needed to locate individual atoms. The gauge including projector augmented wave method (GIPAW) provides a technique to further refine any of these structures under lattice constraints. Here, the sensitivity of solid-state NMR 13C shift tensor principal value data to GIPAW refinement is investigated. The refinement is shown to improve X-ray powder, X-ray single crystal and even

How do you get rid of termites?
The best way to get rid of termites is to act fast. Termites are a problem that will only get worse — and no matter how much you want them to, they usually don't magically move out on their own. There are three main types of termites: drywood, dampwood and subterranean. Drywood and dampwood termites sneak through cracks in your exterior paint, nail holes, and gaps near windows and other openings and begin to eat through your wood. Subterranean termites enter your house from the ground up by creating mud tunnels. In all cases, they survive by eating the wood of your house. The type of termites you have can steer the treatment plan.
Methods of termite extermination include fumigation, use of pesticides, and use of natural elements that are poisonous to the bugs. The extent of your termite infestation will help determine the treatment method. If you have drywood or dampwood termites that have infiltrated all aspects of the wood in your home, the pest control pro may recommend enclosing the whole house in a tent and gassing the termites via fumigation. If you have subterranean termites, often the entire footprint of the home must be treated by drilling liquid treatments into the slab or foundation of the home to exterminate the colonies. In any case, once you see signs of termites, it's time to take action and call a pest pro.
What do pest control companies do?
Pest control companies handle all aspects of bug, rodent and animal extermination or removal. Pest control professionals visit your home or office to identify the type of pest that is troubling you and offer various treatment plans — complete with clearly outlined costs. Once you and the pest control company have a signed agreement, the pro will begin treatment. Pest treatment can range from the use of spray pesticides and gel bait to live and/or kill traps. There are a wide range of types of pesticides, many of them nontoxic for humans and other small animals. This means you may be able to have your home treated for pests without harming nearby wildlife or your dog and cat. The pest control pro will carry out the treatment plan and, depending on the service agreement, provide follow-up such as emptying traps, inspecting access points, or reapplying pesticide spray if the pests return. Costs will vary based on the type of pest you are having removed and the extent of the infestation.The average national pest control price range is $80-$130. From a minor bedbug event to an entire home termite infestation, pest control companies have got you covered.
How do you get bed bugs and how do you get rid of them?
The increase in bed bug infestations in the U.S. is a result of increased travel, lack of knowledge about preventing infestations, increased resistance of bed bugs to pesticides, and ineffective pest control practices, explains the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It's easy to mistake bed bugs for carpet beetles or similar-looking bugs, so infestations are often not noticed when they first occur. Prevention tips include keeping areas free of clutter, regularly washing sheets and mattress covers in hot water (and don't forget to wash the laundry bag, too), and vacuuming regularly and safely disposing of the sealed vacuum bag. Not everyone has reactions to bed bug bites, which also may be mistaken for the bites of other pests such as mosquitoes, so timely bed bug extermination depends on identification of bed bug activity. If you notice physical signs of an infestation, contact a bed bug extermination professional as soon as possible to learn about chemical and non-chemical (such as heat) treatment options. An integrated pest management plan may incorporate one or more methods.
How much does it cost to treat a house for termites?
Termites are not only creepy-crawly, they can literally eat your house out from underneath you. Termites feed on damp and dry wood and can chomp through your house at an alarming rate. The national average pest control cost for termite extermination is $240-$400. Treatment costs can be higher for an extensive infestation. Here are some examples of average pest control costs for termites:
- Liquid treatment of subterranean termites: $3-$4 per linear foot.
- For $75 per year, a company may offer a maintenance plan that provides inspection of the property and renewal of the warranty.
- Liquid treatment of subterranean termites: approximately $400 for a 2,000-square-foot home at $3-$5 per linear foot.
- The price is higher for additional work such as foaming and drilling inside of concrete slabs.
- Fumigation treatment of drywood termites: $1,200-$1,500 for a 30,000- to 35,000-cubic-foot home
- Fumigation is measured in cubic feet because it fills the airspace of the home and infiltrates the wood that the termites may be colonizing. The cost of fumigation is affected by the number of levels in the home as well as the square footage.
How much does it cost to get rid of cockroaches?
Cockroaches are not only ugly, they are difficult to get rid of. Quick and resilient, they can be hard to get rid of without professional help once they have inhabited a house. Nationally, the average range for cockroach pest control cost is $80-$130. Extermination professionals typically provide a free estimate to determine the extent of the infestation. They'll check for the main sources of the bugs, identify bug access and entry points into your home, and determine the best method for elimination. There are a variety of cockroach extermination tools including gel baits and traps, pesticide foggers, desiccants (which dry out the cockroaches), neurotoxins, and other pesticides. Pest control costs can also cover preventive measures like regular spraying and trap maintenance. Some regions of the country are much more prone to cockroach problems than others, so pest control costs may need to be part of your quarterly budget. Cockroaches love dark, humid, and warm areas and water sources, so place traps near your washer and dryer and under your sinks.
How long does a bed bug treatment last?
Bed bug extermination can last forever as long as the treatment killed all the bed bugs (and their eggs) and if new bed bugs are not transported into the location. Factors that can affect the outcome are how severe the infestation is and whether all bed bug sources were properly identified and treated. When working with a pest control professional, the EPA recommends you check and call references; ask if they offer both chemical and non-chemical treatment options, if they recommend both encasements and interceptors, and if they offer two or more service visits and follow-up. Bed bugs are tiny (adults are roughly the size of an apple seed) and can hide anywhere a credit card can slide into. They squeeze into cracks in walls, behind electrical outlet sockets, in bedding, and in other dark places. Learn how to prepare your home for a bed bug treatment for the best outcomes. Michigan State University shares some examples of possible reasons that a bed bug extermination is not 100 percent effective:
- Not all sources (aka hiding places) of the bed bugs were identified during initial inspection.
- Not all sources of bed bugs were treated.
- The insecticides used were not effective or, in the case of heat treatment, there was insufficient contact time.
- Infested items such as bedding or other materials were reintroduced into a cleaned area.
How do you check for bed bugs?
If you are concerned you have a bed bug infestation, look for physical signs of their presence. Bed bugs love to hide in small, dark spaces and typically come out to feed (generally on human blood) after dark — although they will come out in daylight if hungry enough. The Environmental Protection Agency states that indications of an infestation can include seeing shed exoskeletons of bed bugs, rusty spots on your bedding (which are either bug droppings or bloodstains), live bed bugs, bed bug egg casings, a sweet and musty odor (if the infestation is severe), and evidence of bites on your skin.
To spot bed bugs, look in and along mattress seams and bedding, in curtain and furniture folds, inside cracks or crevices in the walls, behind picture frames and mirrors, under loose wallpaper seams, on recently used luggage or backpacks, inside electronics, and inside clothing or cluttered areas such as closets. If you see signs of bed bugs, be careful not to disturb them too much as you don't want them scattering to other parts of your house.
How do you get bed bugs?
Bed bugs can happen to anybody and there typically more than 200,000 cases in the U.S. per year. They are sneaky little pests that hitchhike into your home in a variety of ways. Getting a bed bug infestation is not a reflection on how clean a home is; bed bugs can infiltrate the cleanest of places — although their presence is easier to detect and eliminate in clutter-free spaces. Here are some tips from the EPA to prevent bed bugs from entering and taking up residence in your home:
- Carefully inspect secondhand furniture, beds, or couches for any signs of bed bug infestation before bringing them home.
- Use a protective cover (encasement) over mattresses and box springs to prevent bed bugs from hiding in them. Select an encasement in a light color to make bed bug spotting easier. Also choose one of a strong material that won't tear, and check it often for holes.
- Keep your home clutter-free to eliminate bed bug hiding spots.
- Vacuum your home regularly and dispose of sealed vacuum bags carefully.
- Shared laundry facilities can lead to bed bug exposure in both directions. Transport laundry in plastic bags (if you have an active infestation, use a new bag for the journey home). Remove laundry from the dryer directly into the bag and fold it at home. Use high heat to kill any potential bed bugs.
- The EPA suggests that if you live in a multi-family home, isolate your unit by:
- Installing door sweeps on the bottom of doors to discourage movement into hallways.
- Sealing cracks and crevices around baseboards, light sockets, etc., to discourage movement through wall voids.
Can you see a bed bug?
Bed bugs are visible to the naked eye, but depending on where they are in their life cycle they can be hard to see. Adult bed bugs are the easiest to spot. According to the EPA, they are roughly the size of an apple seed and the height of a credit card. Adults are flat and oval-shaped, have six legs, and are rusty red in color. Bed bug larvae, also referred to as nymphs, are white-yellow or translucent in color and are much harder to spot due to their small size. The nymphs go through five stages of life, shedding an exoskeleton at each stage. Throughout these stages the nymphs grow in size from approximately 1.5 millimeters to approximately 4.5 millimeters. Bed bug eggs can be the most challenging to see as they are roughly 1 millimeter — about the size of a pinhead — and are white or clear. Bed bugs tend to be more active at night, as this is when they feed.
How do you get and get rid of bed bugs?
Bed bugs can travel into your home via luggage, secondhand furniture or clothing, and other items that have been exposed to the little pests. Bed bugs are tiny and flat (about the size of an apple seed and the height of a credit card), so they can easily hide in dark, small places and hitchhike into your home. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, most people don't even know they're transporting bed bugs as they travel from location to location, infecting areas as they travel. The sooner you notice a bed bug infestation in your home, the easier it is to get rid of it. The EPA suggests an integrated pest management plan to get rid of bed bug problems. This means a multi-pronged approach that takes the bug's life cycle into account, uses chemical treatment where needed, and takes all necessary measures (use of encasements, high heat washing and drying of bedding, etc.) to stop current and future life cycles. Unless you feel confident about controlling a bed bug infestation, it can be wise to hire a pest management professional to prevent the problem from getting bigger.

Having a site for an online business is as necessary as having an outlet for a retail store. Just like you cannot give your shop keys to other people, having full access to your website/blog is most necessary. Here comes, the role of hosting websites.
If you want a self-hosted WordPress site (or if you have a blog on BlogSpot you don't legally own your site) you would need a hosting service provider to host your website and there is dime a dozen of hosting sites. Today I am going to review Bluehost hosting service which is by far the best hosting service provider. Below you will find a detailed review Bluehost hosting service.
Before going deep into the review process I am writing a brief introduction to hosting and its types so that you might have a clear concept as to what you want.
What is hosting?
Web hosting is a service in which the hosting provider (bluehost, hostgator, Wpengine etc.) will help you set up your website and media files on special computers called servers. These data can then be distributed to the visitors or people who type your URL on a web browser. Hosting is of many types and what you need depends on what type of purpose you want it. For example generally hosting refers to these.
- Free hosting:
- Shared hosting
- Dedicated hosting
- Collocated hosting
Free Hosting:
This is advisable for learners and people having a site for fun. Often the provider squeezes the server limit and bandwidth on such sites so that they are extremely slow loading. Random adverts by the service provider and frequent down of your website might occur. This is not advisable for professional websites or blogs.
[color-box]Check out the web hosting companies offering Free hosting here => http://goo.gl/2HYpoU[/color-box]
Shared Hosting:
The general hosting refers to shared hosting. It is very popular and may cost anywhere around 5-10$. The lower price is due to the fact that hundreds of websites are hosted on the same server but this does not imply slow loading sites at all. BlueHost review that I am going to write is for its shared hosting which is the best in-class service and is recommended for professional websites and company blogs. More on this below:
Dedicated hosting:
These are the best alternative to people bored of shared hosting and will entitle a full server for your needs. This does mean more resources, high page speed, and capacity to handle large volume of readers at any given time. But this also implicates the user to pay the entire amount which generally would have been shared by other people in the shared hosting.
Collocated Hosting:
This is generally for LARGE industries that require purchasing your won server. You are free to do anything with it and install any amount of app on it.
Bluehost Review:
P.S. I have personally used Bluehost on some of my sites and this review is an honest one. I have tested Bluehost on the parameters of features, reliability, support and affordability which I will be writing in detail below.
Bluehost hosting features:
Bluehost proudly flaunts its services as they are the best in class services. Bluehost has a biggest testimonial as it is officially recommended by WordPress as one of the best hosting services for your WordPress blogs. Even if you are a Drupal or Joomla platform user Bluehost still walks behind you to help you out.
Amongst other features Bluehost hosting provides are unlimited disk storage, unlimited domain, unlimited file transfer, unlimited domain hosting all this for just 3.95$ per month. You have also got other perks like ability to host unlimited sub-domains, over 2500 email accounts (it will help to offer each staff of your blog with a domain specific email address).
For starters and new WordPress users the features that prove a saving are like one click install which can allow you to set up a WordPress blog in less than four minutes. *Yay!*
Did I mention you get a domain of your choice for free in order to start up!
If you are not a designer and cannot afford one there is easy WYSIWYG feature that allows you to design your site with ready-made templates.
What's more? Bluehost also allows you to have a great dashboard as it uses cPanel which is the easiest to use.
Bluehost offers SSL certification for your website at a cost as low as 40$ which is again the lowest in the industry. SSL certification is recently in news as Google announced it to be criteria in ranking sites. However you are not bound to use it and so far not many have used it. In case you decide to use it like the very few probloggers or businesses you can do so by paying extra at any time.
Having a company set up to serve people for more than 17 years and over providing hosting services to above 2 million websites Bluehost doesn't have to ask for a proof. Based on reliability Bluehost secures a ten on ten from me as I have personally used it and never faced any downtime. Bluehost permits unlimited bandwidth and ability to store unlimited files within the limits of their default set up.
They offer a HUGE file size of MySQL of 3GB which is in it in-consumable. You can hardly cover these limits within fair blogging. As WordPress users we are prone to overloads at servers but Bluehost is designed to bear all the loads so as to give your site a very smooth running even in times of high traffic.
Support is one of the most important criteria of choosing any service. I would not host my site for free at any leading hosting provider if the company does not have a good support profile.
In support or customer service Bluehost deserves a high five as it is responsive and highly cooperative. They offer you live chat, email and telephonic methods of contact and are awesomely prompt in taking their customers' calls. Yu could get a reply from them too your question within 10-30 minutes which is by far the most honest timings. My previous hosting took me two days to reply and so I ditched it.
Bluehost has gained a name for itself in the hosting business and it breaks all ice to keep up the brand. You hardly have issues with Bluehost but in case you have, they are the quickest to help you. Yes, one more thing is their tone of the conversation is extremely smooth and soothing which is the most needed in times of problems.
Bluehost is very affordable as compared to others. The very little price it charges is reasonable and you should invest it if you desire a tension free long-term career. I personally request not to use those free and cheap services which do insane bad to your blog.
By pricing, Bluehost starts as low as 3.95$ per month that is hardly more than the pocket money of a kid.
To top it off, Bluehost gives about 200$ of free credit to users registering for their service. These benefits include Google Adwords credit, Facebook Advertisement credit amongst others.

The Cruel Prince (Folk of the Air #1)
By: Holly Black
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: January 2nd, 2018
Format: Hardcover
Of course I want to be like them. They're beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire. They will live forever.
And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest. I hate him more than all the others. I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.
Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality. But many of the fey despise humans. Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.
To win a place at the Court, she must defy him–and face the consequences.
In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed. But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.
I seem to love Holly Black for different reasons than everyone else. While most people seem to really like her Tithe series, I personally adore her for the White Cat series (I did read pieces of the Tithe series, but remember being kinda meh about them). But, whether you like fairies or crazy heist plot twists, you are going to like the Cruel Prince. It's a glorious marriage of the dark, seductive imagery of Tithe with the high-stakes tension and serpentine plot of White Cat. What is there not to like?
The Cruel Prince starts off wild–a double murder of the Jude's parents by her mother's ex-husband, who also happens to be a fairie general, Madoc. Although only Jude's half sister is Madoc's child, he also claims custody of Jude and her identical twin, Taryn, and sweeps them off to live in Faerie. Although the half-fey sibling, Vivi, sneaks back off to the mortal world every chance she gets, Taryn and Jude are more fond of the fey world, despite everyone making it clear that they don't fit in.
The book starts off with a lot of tension–Jude's odd position of living as the adopted child of the man who killed her parents is really the main one. But, as adopted children of a nobleman, they're also sent off to study with the other noble children of the fey realm. This leads to some bullying, notably by the 'Cruel Prince' Cardan (or, you know, a lot of bullying of the 'mortal danger' kind). Although the book meanders some at first, it's also clear that there's quite a lot of political tension happening, as the High King is preparing to step down in favor of one of his children (dum dum dummm).
I honestly loved all of the tension and crazy situations, though. I loved the delicate balance of Madoc's household and his crazy band of mostly-not-his children. I loved Jude's older sister Vivi, her spunk (and her human girlfriend, which was part of the reason she was sneaking out all the time)(also, saying 'our father is conservative' and not 'our father is an immortal being' was one of the better lies Jude told). I liked the relationship between Jude and Taryn, how they cared for each other, but had radically different natures. I appreciated how Taryn was the happy-go-lucky one, the gentle sweet one, compared to Jude's fiery nature. But they were both doggedly pursuing their goals, to find a way to stay and be accepted in Faerie, albeit by different paths. It was difficult to like Taryn sometimes, but her goals were always understandable. And although Jude's stepmother Orliana started out stereotypical as all get out, I warmed to her and her precarious position over the course of the book.
What I loved, though, was how Jude doggedly pushes to find a way to earn a place in Faerie. She pushes herself, distinguishes herself in the tournament, finds a way to serve a court, and keeps grabbing at every opportunity she sees. Her resilience and fire is what I loved about her. But I also liked how, over the course of the book, she begins to see that some of what she's been told about her inadequacy, her inherent flaws, her weakness, is just plain bull. That she's despised not necessarily because she is so much more fragile, but because she has strengths that the fey don't. One of my favorite parts was her reckoning with Cardan about ¾ of the way through the book, where he suddenly realizes that she's SO much more than she seems. And, although there's a little bit of tension there too, I appreciated how it skirted outright romance with the person who'd been horrible to Jude throughout her childhood. But I also liked how Cardan was humanized, how it was shown he didn't have a perfect childhood either, even though he chose to take it out on someone else.
Although all of this stuff is going on in a slightly meandering way, the plot kicks into high gear about halfway through the book, when Cardan's brother stages a coup and attempts to take over the throne. Jude, Cardan and everyone else is thrust into a high-stakes situation, where a single misstep could be deadly. And, although I appreciated the wind-up, I loved this part most of all, the political chess that's going on, and how all it takes to unravel everything is a few well-buried secrets.
The twist at the end (of course there's a twist at the end) is also delightful, with a promise of a thorny, dark next book–titled the Wicked King. I, for one, will be looking out eagerly for it.

"A few months ago a friend and I were in Paris. She had some family friends (whom she had not seen since she was young) who were available to host us for free.
Now, I have always been taught that when entertaining, a guest comes first. These people, however, made us feel as though we were an inconvenience to them and their two children, though we only slept on their pull-out couch — that was it.
The father in the family runs a touring company, and my friend thought we should ask for a tour, to be polite — with the intention of paying him.
He gave us a very short tour of one of Paris' museums — one of my favorites — for free. But the tour was odd and he acted a bit rude, challenging my knowledge of the museum and the paintings and rushing us. I did not enjoy it.
Later on in our visit, we came home late (about midnight) after going up the Eiffel Tower. We did not have a key and he proceeded to go to sleep. Luckily, the au pair let us in. But after that behavior and his lack of an apology, I decided I can't stand him.
Now he sends me emails about giving a review of the tour (which he insists must be a five-star review). I have refused. Should I keep ignoring his emails? Or should I write the bad review because the world has a right to know?
I don't want to seem ungrateful, but what kind of host leaves someone locked out and then goes to sleep — and then demands a five-star review? — Frustrated with Friends of a Friend"
Dear Frustrated:
Let me get this straight: you're complaining that you got to stay in Paris FOR FREE and got a personal tour of a museum FOR FREE?
I don't even know where to begin.
Firstly, it was on you to get a spare key or set up some type of system where you could get back into their place/meet up with them to get the key if they weren't home. That's just common sense. I did it when I stayed with a friend in Hong Kong and again in Chicago. Communication is key, especially in a foreign land. You've now learned this for another trip.
About the curt tour, as you described it. Perhaps something was lost in translation. What he might have perceived as gentle ribbing might have been rude to you, but he was doing his job (FOR FREE) and trying to engage you with the museum and the pieces. You know what else you could have done if you didn't enjoy the trip? Gone again. That's right. You could have gone back and taken the time you wanted to see things you didn't before.
As far as the review goes, you don't owe him 5 stars if you didn't feel it was worth 5 stars. If reviews are anonymous then give whatever you feel best reflects your experience. But I ask you this: Did he give you the full tour as described by his company? Because if he did and it was a sub par experience then by all means give whatever rating you want (but if it were me I'd probably still give it 5 stars because it was FREE). If it wasn't then think before you type and submit.

Bugatti's Galibier 4-Door Sedan Does 235mph,
Bugatti's Veyron is ludicrous, if not wholly impractical. That's what makes it the center of attention when ever one as spotted at a car show. But no one purchases the 1000+ horsepower car as a daily commuter, or stuffs their kids into the backseat. At least not anyone we know, but if there is a will there is inevitably a way. And now it would see the will is the way, as Bugatti plans to put their Galibier, their 4 door sedan, into production.Initial specs called for a sedan to boast less than 1000 horsepower. But apparently that spec set was enough to satiate the execs at Audi, or garner the press that the car surely deserved. So now it would seem that the vehicle has been taken back to the proverbial drawing board and will in fact sport a 1000+ HP setup when it hits sometime in 2015. It's not clear if an optional hybrid system is still in the works, but if it is, it will serve more as a marketing tool then actual fuel economizer. Car and Driver has suggested that the vehicle may in fact have 1,400 horsepower, and a top speed that exceeds 235mph. And yes, those are 8 tailpipes you see protruding from its rear end.

I read an article somewhere the other day, revealing Gwyneth Paltrow's secret diet and exercise routine. Want to know her secret? Gwyneth says "I do 45 minutes of cardio five days a week, because I like to eat. I also try for 45 minutes of muscular structure work, which is toning, realigning and lengthening. If I'm prepping for something or I've been eating a lot of pie, I do two hours a day, six days a week for two weeks."*
I like to eat too, but all that for a bit of pie?!
It got me thinking. How many of us have the time, like Gwyneth, to train 2 hours a day six times a week with your very own personal trainer? And if you don't have 2 hours a day to train, should we just give up now?
I'd say no, to both questions. We still want the results though, right? So how drastic and committed do we really have to be.
True health is your birthright and your own individual responsibility. Not any one diet or gadget will bring it to you, and nor is this setting you up for a healthy lifestyle. Forget the 10kg's you want to lose in the next 4 weeks, try thinking about how you want to feel in 4 years, 8 years or 15 years from now.
As a C.H.E.K Holistic Lifestyle Coach, I use the Foundation of Health principles, as taught to me by Paul Chek (creator of the C.H.E.K Institute). Read the below checklist and see how many out of the 6 fundamentals you implement on a daily basis.
The 6 Fundamentals of Good Health:
1. THOUGHTS: You move in the direction of your current dominating thought – so make it a good one!
Thoughts lead to action and actions lead to words. Everything you do begins with a thought, and every action that stems from your thoughts are positive or negative dependent on your state of mind. Your thoughts are more powerful than you realise, so be conscious of your "self-talk" and make it positive. This will be reflected in the direction you take with your success. This might not feel natural to you at first, so help yourself by writing a daily affirmation on a Post-It note and stick it beside your computer screen or phone at work so it prompts your thought patterns throughout the day. Go to http://www.louisehay.com/affirmations/ for daily affirmations you can use.
2. BREATHING: Breathe with the belly
Breathing right is essential for optimum health. Your breathing directly impacts your body's pH balance and it's also the primary function of the diaphragm. Most of us are constantly in a stressful state and tend to over-breathe or take shallow breaths, so take 60 seconds to sit still and consciously breathe. Slow your breath down to 3 seconds inhale (breathe into the belly and let the rib cage expand), 3 second pause, 3 second exhale, 3 second pause. This exercise can be done at night before going to sleepas it's a great way to calm the nervous system and massage your internal organs.
3. HYDRATION: Nothing beats water
Hydration is linked to performance. If you allow yourself to become dehydrated your mental clarity, energy levels and productivity will suffer. Fizzy drinks, juices, sports drinks, alcoholic and caffeinated drinks will use more water to digest them than the amount of water they put into your body. They dehydrate you, not re-hydrate you. Aim for 0.033 litres of filtered water per kg of body weight to ensure you're getting enough water throughout the day. Add a pinch of Himalayan sea salt to aid the uptake of water into your cells and remember filtered water is always best. Go to www.watershop.com.au to find out more about water filters to fit onto your taps at home.
4. NUTRITION: Cut the CRAP
Avoidance of CRAP helps you reach your optimum health! What is CRAP?
C- Carbohydrates (processed)
R- Refined Foods
A- Additives
P- Preservatives
A golden rule to follow when it comes to your nutrition: THE LESS HUMAN INTERFERENCE, THE BETTER! If it comes in a packet it's a product, not a food.
5. MOVEMENT: Move more!
Movement helps build stamina, increase flexibility and put your body in good stead as you get older. Look at training techniques that build lean muscle tissue (to increase your metabolism), increase your heart rate (which increases heart health) & use functional movement patterns (which will assist your body in everyday tasks).
6. SLEEP: Sleep with the Sun
Our lifestyle of late night television and artificial lights make it easy to forget that our bodies are in rhythm with the light and dark cycles of day and night. When the sun starts to fade it's time to unwind so that by 10pm you're ready to sleep. When you are sleeping your body repairs and regenerates all the systems of your body, so you can work to your optimum again the following day. The body uses your sleep phaseto go through important cycles including detoxification and rebuilding of cells. Why would you want to cheat yourself out of these vital processes? Get to bed by 10.30pm, and aim for 8hrs sleep per night.
For more information on any of the above get yourself a copy of How to Eat, Move and Be Healthy, by Paul Chek.

Lasansky Gallery & Studio
703 South Clinton St. l Iowa City, IA 52240
Hours by Appointment
The Lasansky Gallery & Studio began in a mission house on Iowa Avenue in 1990 and moved soon thereafter to its current location on South Clinton Street in Iowa City. The space is a combined studio for printmaking and painting as well as a gallery showing the work of Tomas and Charlie Lasansky and several Iowa artists who work or have worked at the studio over the years. The space originally was a welding and concrete warehouse with a small house attached to the front. For the first few years the front space was rented to a local law firm as Tomas and Charlie converted the industrial warehouse space to studio and gallery space in many phases over the years. In 2002, renovations began on converting the former law offices into gallery space. Completed in 2004, the Lasansky Gallery & Studio hosted many exhibitions over the following decade. Over that time, the size and volume of work created grew. To accommodate this, a major addition broke ground in the summer of 2013. Three floors of studio space were added, bringing the Lasansky Gallery & Studio to its current state of 10,500 square feet. In addition to the vast gallery spaces, it includes a complete intaglio printmaking shop with four American French Tool presses (including one of the largest ever built) and several painting studios. In the Fall of 2016, the property adjacent to the studio was acquired and converted into an open yard and garden space that may one day allow the studio to grow even further.

Playa del Carmen is a Mexican city located on the coast of the Caribbean, in the northeast of the Quintana Roo state. It is the state's third largest city, next to Cancun and Chetumal. According to the 2005 census, Playa del Carmen had a population of approximately 100,400 people.
Named after Our Lady of Mount Carmel, the first recorded visitors of Playa del Carmen came during AD 300-600, or the Early Classic Period of the Mayan civilization. The city was originally called Xaman-Ha (waters of the north).
The lowlands and coastal areas of the peninsula remained heavily populated by Mayan descendents when the Spanish colonizers arrived. The colonizers focused much of their attention around Mérida, where conditions were great for growing henequén, a fiber used in making rope. During the 1600s and 1700s, the Caribbean coast was considered a savage place with not much to offer for potential settlers.
This little beach town has developed greatly in popularity during the past years. There is a very good reason for that – Playa del Carmen has become a beautiful place to live or spend vacation. It has developed along the beach, so you will feel the closeness and familiarity to the sea wherever you go.

Cathy, I have seen some exciting things done with Google Maps/Earth API to create the kind of thing you are talking about (not that I know, really, how to do it), but we might look at some of the possibilities together: code.google.com/apis/earth/documentation/examples.html
Also, did you see this site dealing with visual depictions of what was there in the past? posterityproject.blogspot.com/2011/04/whatwasthere-maps-your-journey-to-past.html

Me retreat
1. Lazy: If I lounge around all day doing nothing, who cares? The lazier the better. A long drooling nap is practically a requirement.
2. Selfish: I'm going to do only what I want to do with my time and I don't care what anyone else thinks about that. It's all about meeeeee!
3. Naughty: Unlimited carbs, red meat, decadent desserts, martinis - calories don't count on a solo retreat.
4. Disconnected: That's right - no computer, internet, social networking, television, bills, gossip, or news. Life will continue on without me while I'm away, and will be there waiting for me when I get back.
5. Reckless: I might just stay up really late, like past 10pm. Or explore an unknown hiking trail and see where it takes me. Or eat at a restaurant that is not recommended or thoroughly researched. Or take my chances and not set my alarm in order to wake up in time for the complimentary breakfast. Or buy a piece of local art from an unknown artist. No agenda or schedule! That's me, so wild and crazy like that.
6. Forgetful: It's a time to escape and forget my fears, worries, stresses, responsibilities, doubts, frustrations, to-do lists, and expectations.
7. Discriminate: I will go with an open mind, but only do things that make me happy, relaxed, content, and true to myself.
8. Criminal: It would be a crime to not get the most out of my retreat, no matter what I do or don't do. I cannot beat myself up, rob myself of this opportunity, or steal away from a good attitude. I must rehabilitate any feelings of loneliness, doubt, or self sabotage and replace them with contentment, confidence, and empowerment.
9. Envy: Knowing that most of my friends don't ever get this wonderful chance to take a trip alone like this and probably wish they could do it, too, I consider myself a lucky woman, but will remember to remain humble.
I am blessed and grateful for my very supportive husband, mom, and friends, plus the financial means and available time to go. Ultimately, it's truly a loving gift I am giving myself, one that I can't wait to open and enjoy.

You SO deserve a completely "me" time. I'll add one more word, "Immediate," that you will start those other nine words as soon as your car heads out. We who remain at home wish you peace and thinking-free bliss. Ah, another word, "empty," that you will empty your head of all thoughts and just be in-the-moment. Every moment. Care-free and basking in your senses. xoxoxReplyDelete
Lots and lots of luck, joy and credit to you! Have a fantastic and relaxing trip. We're here if you're hubby needs help, but I'm quite certain he is more than capable. Again, you DESERVE this! Make the most of it!ReplyDelete
Soak it up. Every little drop of joy.ReplyDelete

What Happens at Fifteen Determines Sexual Spontaneity MODE of Cosmic Therapy Esoteric Astrology
By Paula Andrea Pyle MA, 4th Oct 2010 | Follow this author

Posted in WikinutHealthMind & SpiritSelf Help
"Sexuality is the highest form of spirituality available to mankind." IF that is so, then, why do we seem to have such a problem with expressing the 'natural and convenient' creative aspects of the divinely offered gift? Maybe looking back at the age of 15 can offer some valuable clues...MODE of Cosmic Therapy
- MODE of Cosmic Therapy Esoteric Astrology: Exhuming the Psychological Rubies Found in the Astrological 7th House
- Sexual energy is a perfectly natural creative sublime expression of divinity. Art, music, drama, the written word...
- Pleasure is a big deal during this phase! '
- Alienation settled in without a premeditated thought to initiate it...
MODE of Cosmic Therapy Esoteric Astrology: Exhuming the Psychological Rubies Found in the Astrological 7th House
Fifteen, an eagerly auspicious yet confusing time in a person's life brings with it many virulent changes of moods which directly affect one's personality for his/her entire lifetime.
During the period of exactly three months before one turns fifteen, until three months after the sixteenth birthday, a turbulent trial of exasperating emotions, associated with various pin-pointed relationships, (some of those quite secret and never expressed) will affect the personality defiantly.
What major event occurs during this most volatile period plant the seeds of reaping for the fifteen years to follow.
In the case of natal astrology, this eighteen month frustrating period falls directly in the seventh 'house of relationships'. In MODE of Cosmic Therapy Esoteric Astrology, the period brings forth the relevant resurfacing of 'attachment' issues dealt with in the time frame (4-5) pre-school years; which will again arise during an eighteen month period surrounding the age of 42.
Also, the dread and thought of death is most entertained as equated with one's personal ego.
Most of what occurs at this time in the mind of the young adult displeases him/her tremendously and seems completely devoid of any worthy merit or real satisfaction. Though a time of gaiety, flattery and robust enthusiasm, these young adults feel so totally disgusted and filled with revulsion at the idea of continued empty praise.
It's certainly a time of self-misunderstanding and relational perplexity, serving as the foundation of double mindedness in these young adults.
Sexual energy is a perfectly natural creative sublime expression of divinity. Art, music, drama, the written word...
Another immediate revolving door of inconsistent subject of sacred sexuality artistic debate is that of contrary moods of powerful, unlimited exaggerated self-assertiveness.
The contradictory door swings far and wide without as much as a platform to stand upon when trying to communicate unexpressed emotion. It is at this crucial time when sexuality plays an undeniable pivotal point of 'no return'.
Since "Sexuality is the highest form of spirituality available to mankind, is it any wonder why during this underscored period in a person's life seems to be so ethereal?
At fifteen, one feels split directly down the middle with thoughts of megalomania at the very same instant of feeling and producing thoughts of downcast inferiority. Seeking for the unstated compromise seems to take an enormous toll on the individual with bouts of depression, anger and unsettled rebellion.
Because at fifteen, one tends to judge himself way too harshly and gauge his moods momentarily based upon his distorted judgment of himself, he forms unnatural inhibitions resulting from the contrary impulses. On one hand he wants to let 'all hell breaks loose' on the other he feels ashamed for such belligerent display of attitude.
Pleasure is a big deal during this phase! '
'Natural and convenient' pleasure which should be followed and expressed; but due to early conditioning, upbringing, religious modes and/or suppressive/abusive family environmental factors, collective social mores, the individual is left to fend for himself/herself to sort out the conflicting sacred sensually sexually artistic creatively motivated ideas.
An extremely difficult time frame, no doubt.
While looking back, in the definitive period of exactly three months before fifteen and three months after sixteen, we can all recall various peaks of emotional abyss whereby we were forced involuntarily to cross.
Look objectively at the years involved. What specifically was going on? IF there were some person, place, event, circumstance, that was literally avoided, cut short, dissolved without adequate resolution, the theme will continue to 'paint our world' in the color of that sensually motivated action for quite a while to come.
Usually, if we deny an avenue of earnestly desired expression (whether socially acceptable or not) , because of the inherent need of our precious ruthless soul to physically create, express and experience it, the opposite role will assume a broad spectrum of importance in our life.
Until at such time we are able to disassociate from the unspoken guilt, remorse and shame attached. In other words, from something that occurred during this critical point in our lives, a band of censorship, as such, was instituted and unconsciously followed.
Alienation settled in without a premeditated thought to initiate it...
This is precisely why it seems as if fifteen year olds (not excluding us) are so distant from the people in their immediate family. Not only have they become strangers to them, but they are more so strangers to themselves.
Instead of being labeled as this person or that with these manners, attitudes and ways, he/she is paddling a brightly colored canoe into a cave.
It's all a matter of forming, accessing and applying a congruent position of receptivity of his/her own values, ideas, beliefs, concepts while they struggle to form a separated identity from the one given to them by family, peer pressure, society and culture norms.
The very last thing fifteen year olds want to be is predictable.
Not only is it boring, mundane and dead-on nauseating, it is downright sexually unappealing. When considering how the fifteen year old period affected you, ponder how non-spontaneous, capricious and eager to try new uncharted waters govern daily existence.
In addition, how much are we overachievers, driven to the point of oblivious success? It may be worth looking back at that most propitious period of time to see what was deposited and never withdrawn.
Got your bankcard?

What an incredible ending to an amazing series! Definitely tops all mafia romances. The thing with Rule was that it was unapologetic. We all know Antonio Spinelli is a Capo, we all know what he's done… and while he was seeking redemption, his crimes were not watered down. We got him as he is, and we loved him all the same.
Rule is the last book in the Songs of Corruption series. Theresa and Antonio have been through it all. They even faked their own death. But they have to live again. Jonathan is on his death bed, there's no way Theresa can sail off to the sunset without seeing him. But the mafia world is waiting for Antonio to come back. There's a bounty on his head. Friends and enemies alike are waiting for the chance to kill him, for real this time.
Honestly I couldn't think of a better ending for this book. It had it all, the steamy, no holds barred sex between Antonio and Theresa… wowzer! It should be a given that erotic romances should make us squirm in a good way. But I can't tell you how many I read and just skim over the 'steamy' parts or read as if I'm going through a grocery list. Not Rule. I was reading it on my way to work hoping no one was looking over my shoulder! So yes, steamy is an understatement! They should create a whole new word for the heat these two created!
And the grit. The unapologetic way Antonio went about it. The way our corrupted Theresa joined him without looking back. She embraced being a killer. She embraced protecting her man even though he wanted to keep her safe and away from the ugliness of the mafia world. She went all the way.
Do you know how difficult it is to create a hero who is really an anti hero? Many authors water it down so the reader doesn't fall into a moral quandary. Not CD Reiss. She did what the writers of The Sopranos did. She created a super flawed character. A dangerous man. A killer. An anti hero. And made us fall in love with him. That's genius!
And the romance. Sigh, the romance. Like Romeo and Juliet. Fated and tragic.
"There is no world without you in it. Nothing. I'm not talking about despair. I've lost people. This isn't me being a child. There is one universe. Just one. And it's between us. If you destroy that universe you destroy me."
Everything worked to keep these two apart. Things from the past coming to life to try to destroy them. A whole ambush from the present. But they fought on, blood and fire.
"You're mine. You'll always be mine. We live together, or we die together. There is nothing in between."
And in the end?
I was sure we would pay for our sins in either this life or the next… but maybe salvation would come in the form of love.
There's no review that can do this book justice. It's just on another level. Thrilling, suspenseful, romantic, erotic, edgy… all written with a slow build of foreboding… and while you know you will get there, it's the way you get there. The way CD Reiss makes love to words, the poetry in it. Just brilliant.
5 Stars!
