Growing Stronger
This gigantic beauty can be found in our Sophia's Place gardens!
Our garden at Sophia's Place is in full bloom and ripening with fresh delicious vegetables. Thank you to all of the Volunteers that made that possible.
The summer has also been a time of new growth for The Sophia Way as we continue to
improve our programs and implement some beneficial changes with the intent of better
serving our women. We are in the process of hiring new staff at our overnight shelter. I would also like to welcome six year veteran staff member, Karie Stearns, as our new Programs Director of case management and Sophia's Place.
I continued to be awe inspired by the overwhelming amount of generosity from our donors, volunteers, staff, the faith based community and the dedicated Board of Directors. We are grateful for this much needed support, especially since the demand continues to rise. Throughout July, our Day Center served an increasing number of women on a daily basis and our Shelter was at full capacity. Thank you for helping us give the women respite from the heat and show them that someone cares.
- Angela Murray, Executive Director
Summer Movies in the Park, August 25th
Please join us f
or a fun family evening at Summer Outdoor Movies in the Park, this year at Hidden Valley Sports Park. We will be enjoying the family-friendly
Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb
starring Ben Stiller and the late, great Robin Williams. Admission and popcorn are free! We will be collecting
donations which will go towards helping us end homelessness for adult women on the Eastside. We hope to see you there!
Each new resident of Sophia's Place is welcomed with a beautiful quilt and a care basket- a uniquely and thoughtfully put together collection of donated essentials.
Susan, (not her real name,) was just about to run out of money. She had been paying premium prices to stay at a motel, and even though she saved money by paying for a week's stay at a time, it was still much more than she could afford.
Susan had recently lived in a lovely apartment in Queen Anne, but steady work had tapered off, her rent rates suddenly rose, and a mild elbow injury was making it difficult to find more work - that was the tipping point. She lost her home. And now she was about to lose her shelter and be out on the streets. She only had enough money for one more night in the motel. That's when she came to the Sophia's Place Day Center.
Susan received assistance and a listening ear at the Day Center from staff that know the ins and outs of various local services agencies. They encouraged her to put her name on the Sophia's Place Night Shelter vacancy wait list, and assisted her in finding other shelters and transitional housing to apply for, so that she could save what money she was earning and have a little more to work with while she was in transition. Susan cried tears of relief - she was finally getting the help she needed!
Today is Susan's birthday. And it will be one to remember, because patience and persistence finally paid off. Today Susan's turn came and she moved into Sophia's Place Night Shelter. She will have a safe, secure place to sleep and store her belongings. She will have a case manager cheering her on as they work together to make her a fresh start. And, as she remarked to Day Center staff today, she could finally stabilize and start rebuilding her life.
Happy Birthday, Susan! Let's see what this year will bring!

Volunteer Spotlight
Meet Helen, Our Wonderful Day Center Intern!
I am an incoming junior at UW Bothell, and I decided to intern at The Sophia Way because I wanted to give back to my community. I also believed that working here would help me with my professional goals since I want to work in the non-profit sector where I can help people along their journeys to improve their quality of life. I am glad
that I can offer practical support, such as helping to prepare and serve meals and taking care of the
Interning at The Sophia Way has been a rewarding experience because I know that I am making a difference, and I am learning how to be a better leader and become more aware of the diverse experiences around me. Understanding the women at this organization has helped me improve my communication skills, so that I can make sure they always feel welcomed at the day center.
Want to volunteer with TSW? We have lots of diverse opportunities for all skill and experience levels! Please e-mail email@example.com to learn more.
We Couldn't Do It Without Our Meal Donors!
Jean Harris is a member of Aldersgate United Methodist Church. Jean comes the first Tuesday of every month since the beginning of The Sophia Way to bring a meal to our clients. Jean is the representative, but reports that its very much a team effort of 12 ladies who donate funds, dishes, fruit for Sophia's Place each month.
Patricia (left,) is a resident of our shelter who also volunteers with Lake Sammamish Four Square Church. They provided her with the means, and she cooked and delivered chicken, mashed potatoes, and all the side dishes to share with the other women in the shelter!
Meal donors provide a variety of hot, delicious, and healthy meals to our Sophia's Place
day! If you are interested in donating a lunch or dinner to our clients, get more information or simply sign up for a meal
A Very Special Party
All of us at The Sophia Way would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to Lorraine Stromswold. She received a grant from
Thrivent "Live Generously" program
, which empowers community members to meet the needs of their community, and decided to use this to collect much-needed items for The Sophia Way.
Lorraine threw a party on March 25, 2015 to collect donations. Eight people attended; Thrivent sent out black with blue trim tee shirts for everyone to wear. Everyone gave generously: one couple went shopping at Bartell's and brought a big bag of stuff, one woman gave bags of travel soaps and shampoos. A salon supplier gave a case of hair conditioner. This program through Thrivent Action Team also gave Lorraine $250 credit card to spend on anything she chose, so she bought underwear from Marshall's, which is always needed. The estimated worth of the donation was $400-$500 total.
Sterling Benson encouraged her to do this project since she is a member of Thrivent. The party is the Thrivent requirement to reach out, get others involved in giving and strengthen communities. She felt she was reaching out beyond the church, to the greater community as a whole.
Thank you again, Lorraine and Thrivant Financial!

New users bring new applications with expectations of more bandwidth on-demand and the need for new network services. Operators need to respond quickly, incorporating new technologies and capabilities. As such, networks are becoming bigger, and operating the network is becoming more complex.
The idea of network automation is not new. However, new SDN-based approaches make automation provisioning across multi-vendor optical, packet and MPLS networks easier and more powerful than it has ever been in the past.
An automated WAN provides a programmable foundation that simplifies service providers' ability to transform and offer new virtualized, on-demand services. The time is now.

Sunglasses are not really the most gadgety of things to be reviewing, but with the weather recently (which seems to have passed) venturing outside has almost always required them.
I am not a massive sunglasses fan, mainly because I always forget to put them on or lose them. I am always tempted to get some Ray-Ban Wayfarers, but at £90+ it is a bit steep for me. SunGod Classics are a more affordable option with arguably better features.
Pricing starts at £45 and each pair is custom made, and then sent out the next day. By custom made, I mean they put together the various options you request. There are 3 variables with each pair, the front frame, the arms and the lens. The frames and arms have 15 colour options and a further 7 colours for the lenses with each colour having a polarised option. So the potential of colour choices is vast and far better than competing brands.
SunGod isn't all about design choices either, they have focussed on build quality as well. The frames are actually a flexible matte plastic material. SunGods official specification states "Adventureproof® flexible frame material. High-tensile, durable and lightweight for all day wear". In reality, they do seem both rugged and flexible, I didn't dare bend mine as much as their demo video, but there is a decent amount of flex to them without being overly bendy, so they should easily survive you accidentally sitting on them or whatever.
The specifications of the lenses are:
- 100% UVA + UVB protection exceeding EN 1836 (CE) and ANSI Z80.3 (FDA) standards.
- SunGod 4KO® Polycarbonate lenses with impact resistance.
- Triple-layer scratch resistant coating + anti-reflective inner lens coating.
- Advanced polarised filter for enhanced optical clarity and precision (optional).
I will just have to take their word for it with most of that. I opted for the polarised filter and was glad I did, they seem to offer far better visibility than traditional types of lenses and are less annoying to wear (for me) for long periods of time.
All the glasses have interchangeable lenses too, which are priced at £20 or £35. So if you do damage your glasses, or just fancy a change this is also an option.
Lastly the glasses are covered by a lifetime guarantee which specifically states:
"SunGod Lifetime Guarantee applies to SunGod Classics² and covers the product in case of manufacturer's defects and accidental breakage. If your SunGod Classics² break (or you break them), we will repair or replace them free of charge."
The guarantee doesn't cover lenses scratches though, but this is still an amazing level of guarantee from SunGod and makes the price of them easily justifiable.
The biggest downside I had with them was the packaging. They arrive in a rather flimsy cardboard box, and a microfiber cleaning pouch. However, at half the price of Ray Bans and a lifetime warranty this is somewhat forgivable.
You can buy SunGod sunglasses today directly from sungod.co from £45 for the Classics or £50 for the aviator style Mavericks

Consider up & down, left & right, and back & forth. Up & down can be stated generically as "vertical". Side-to-side is "lateral". What about back & forth?
Regardless, it is axial. You can theoretically have a multi-axial displacement of an object. – Kris Feb 13 '14 at 6:40
True, but I need that specific term. – IamIC Feb 13 '14 at 6:43
Duplicate of english.stackexchange.com/questions/56472/… ? – mplungjan Feb 13 '14 at 7:16
1Not a duplicate. Totally different concept. – IamIC Feb 13 '14 at 7:19
What about the word longitudinal?
OOD defines longitudinal as "running lengthwise rather than across".
When we talk about waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as (or the opposite direction to) the direction in which the wave travels, we often use the word longitudinal.
(source: ddmcdn.com)
In a Wikipedia article about aircraft principal axes, it states that
An aircraft in flight is free to rotate in three dimensions: pitch, nose up or down about an axis running from wing to wing, yaw, nose left or right about an axis running up and down; and roll, rotation about an axis running from nose to tail. The axes are alternatively designated as lateral, vertical, and longitudinal.

CD replication to create CDs in a cost effective way
CD replication is a replication service that is used by many commercial organisations and individuals in multiple ways. First time film makers and performing artists are using CD replication services for creating multiple copies of their films and performances before selling or distributing them to the people who can help in their career development.
Similarly, CD replication is used by commercial organisations for promoting their products in various different ways. Some companies are using CD replication to manufacture CDs that will provide help to customers in using the product they just bought.
Publishing companies are using CD replication services extensively. It has been proven that when a book is accompanied by a CD which helps the reader to follow the book, the sales of the book multiplies overnight.
CD replication is also used by many large stores and shops for creating albums or movie CDs that they offer as free gifts to the customers when they buy an item. This helps in boosting the sales very quickly.
Moreover, CD replication service providers act very fast and can meet any deadline. Thus, companies and individuals who require creating more than 500 CDs choose to opt for CD replication services.

This is just about the girls in the 1950s who went to bars with paper bags containing toiletries, looking for a guy to go home with. This was a regular enough occurrence that one can find it described in popular literature of the era. The 1950s was not really a time of sexual continence, as conservatives frequently like to pretend (the major liberal lie of the 1950s is ignoring the massive amount of tax avoidance behavior that resulted from sky-high tax rates). There is in fact a grain of truth to the idea that the 1950s was about a facade of cleanliness hiding rot.
The 1950s was a strange time, as it was when atomicity started to become widespread and community ties started to openly degrade. It's also a time that due ironically to being the first mass media decade has managed to ensconce itself in conservative and liberal memetic memory as the perfect decade, for essentially similar reasons (that people were more willing to sacrifice temporal pleasure for the common good). For liberals, this sacrifice is financial, while it is sexual and social for the conservatives. It's also totally imaginary in both cases, except by pure accident.
After all, it's the children who were raised by people who were adults (and sometimes paper bag girls and men amenable to taking them home) during the 50s who are running most of our institutions into the ground right now. If the adults were so much more moral, why are their children so venal?

For seven years Narina travelled the world as a writer, editor and photographer for TNT (London) and Getaway (Cape Town) magazines. Depending on the season, you'd find her queuing for visas in London or Johannesburg, crossing glaciers in Iceland, canyoning in Turkey, haggling in Moroccan markets, tracking rhinos in South Africa, dancing in an Ulan Bataar night club or trying to persuade immigration officials that people with pale skin really do come from South Africa.
With one travel book, two passports and 13 years' worth of magazine deadlines behind her, Narina left her desk job as senior features editor at Women's Health magazine. She set herself free from office hours and fluorescent lighting, and set out on a new journey as a freelance writer, editor and photographer. These days you're likely to bump into her writing from a warung in west Bali, hugging baobabs in Kenya, teaching a yoga class in Thailand or – still – queuing for visas.
Narina writes travel, lifestyle and health features for numerous respected magazines around the world. She specializes in crafting evocative copy that draws readers in and sends them on journeys of their own; she's also a sucker for research and has the ability to get her interview subjects to open up and talk honestly about everything from abortion to art to cancer to yoga.
If you'd like to get in touch, you'll find her at narina.exelby [at] gmail.com or else through @NarinaExelby on Twitter.

Universal Institute's program and services are designed for individuals who are seeking a person-centered, non-traditional therapy approach. Our goal is to empower our Clients with hope, determination, and courage, to forge ahead in maximizing their ability to perform daily activities in a way that enhances their quality of life. We have made our admissions process as simple as possible for our Clients, their families, and referral sources. Let our journey together begin!
Make a Referral
UIRehab serves individuals who are 18 years of age or older who have been diagnosed with an Acquired Brain Injury (traumatic or non-traumatic), Spinal Cord Injury, or other neurological conditions.
A referral typically begins once an individual is enrolled in a waiver or OLTL program and is ready to move forward in selecting a Home and Community-Based Service Provider. Referrals are made by service coordination agencies, nursing home transition coordinators, social workers, or by the individual seeking services. Sometimes a medical professional suggests UIRehab based on the individual's rehabilitation needs. Sometimes a family member or an individual themselves, inquire about Universal Institute based on their personal preference of location or reputation of our program. Either way, it is the individual's right to request a referral to be placed to the community-based setting of their choice.
In order for us to provide the quickest and most efficient screening process possible, it will be helpful to have the following information ready to share when you call:
- Confirmation of Home and Community-Based Services Waiver
- Diagnosis and presenting concerns necessitating the services
- Rehabilitation history
- Health history and current level of care
- Health Insurance Information
If our initial discussion reveals that the individual might be an appropriate candidate for our program, you are asked to complete and submit our application for further review. Once reviewed, if the supporting documentation indicates the individual's potential to be a good match for our program, we will move forward in scheduling a Pre-Admission Intake Screening.
We would love to share more about UIRehab's program and services with you. If you would like to make a referral or ask a question, please contact our Admissions Department at 610-625-4959 or email.
Pre-Admission Intake Screening
If the information collected in the referral process indicates the individual's potential to be a good match for our program, we will move forward in scheduling a Pre-Admission Intake Screening.
UIRehab's Pre-Admission Intake Screening is an initial face-to-face meeting with the prospective Client, the admissions department, and members of our rehabilitation team. It is an opportunity for the prospective Client to tour our facility and learn more about our program and services offered. It is a chance to gage an individual's willingness and readiness to participate in the next step in their recovery. Ultimately, the purpose of this meeting is to gather information needed to better understand the prospective Client's rehabilitation needs and determine eligibility.
Following the prospective Client's Pre-Admission Intake Screening, our team will meet to review the Client's case, and based on the information gathered, we will make a recommendation regarding the most appropriate level of care for treatment.
If we are able to offer the recommended services at UIRehab, our admissions department will contact the Client's referring entity to discuss a care plan and determine an appropriate date for admission. Our admissions department will work with our new Client and their designated representatives to complete and collect all necessary documentation required for admission.

There are many people who have followed Maharishi Raman. His teaching was very simple - he was a simple man, uneducated, not learned. He had escaped from his home when he was only seventeen. He escaped because his father died. When the whole family was weeping and crying, and the neighbors were preparing to take the dead body to the funeral pyre, nobody noticed that Raman had disappeared.
The experience of the death of his father became a tremendous revolution in Raman's mind. He was only seventeen, the only son of a poor family, and he escaped to the mountains. He remained his whole life on the mountain of Arunachal where he did nothing but just sit and watch inside. He never asked anybody anything. He had no master, he had nobody to guide him, but just sitting silently watching his own mind, he transcended his mind and he came to know himself.
And by knowing himself he came to know the ultimate bliss - the ecstasy that surrounded Gautam Buddha, the enlightenment that was radiating from Mahavira, the joy, the dance of all those who have awakened. So whoever was asking him, "What are we supposed to do?" he had only one answer his whole life: "Meditate on `Who am I?'"

A Belizean-American soldier who was working as a helicopter mechanic with the United States Military lost his life in a helicopter accident this past Saturday, May 3, near the state of New Mexico.
Amandala understands that Sergeant Dwight Burn, 27, a soldier from the 82nd Airborne Division's Combat Aviation Brigade, died as a result of injuries he sustained when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter – on which he was a crew member – crashed around 8:15 p.m. while the crew was conducting a desert training exercise in an area north of the Fort Bliss Garrison near Orogrande, New Mexico.
Sgt. Burn was reportedly the crew chief and one of four persons who were aboard the helicopter when it went down, and unfortunately, he was the only person who died as a result of his injuries.
The training focused on high altitude and mountainous environment flying, and according to US authorities, the cause of the crash is still currently under investigation.
US Army officials have reported that the three other crew members from the brigade who were also injured are presently in stable condition.
Sergeant Dwight Burn is the son of Belize City businessman Romel Perdomo, one of the proprietors of Traveller's Liquors Ltd.
Burn was born in Belize and lived in Belize City until the age of 4 when he migrated to the US, where he studied and graduated from high school in 2005.
He enlisted in the US Army in 2010 as a CH-47 Chinook helicopter mechanic, and eventually rose to the rank of sergeant.
Burn was a resident of Barstow, California, who was based at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and had been deployed to Afghanistan from September 2011 to September 2012 with the 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade.
He had since received numerous awards and decorations, including the Air Medal, the Army Achievement Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, Army Good Conduct Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, Overseas Service Ribbon, the NATO Medal and the Army Aviation Badge.
He is survived by his two daughters, Violet, 7, and Vivian, 4.

NEW YORK – The NHL has suspended Ottawa Senators defenceman Mark Borowiecki two games for boarding Los Angeles forward Tyler Toffoli.
The incident occurred at 2:38 of the first period of the Kings' 4-1 win over Ottawa on Saturday in Los Angeles. Borowiecki hit Toffoli from behind and into the boards as Toffoli went to retrieve the puck in the Kings' zone.
Borowiecki was assessed a major penalty for boarding on the play. Toffoli returned to the game after leaving briefly after the hit.
Borowiecki, who had never been suspended before, will forfeit US$12,222.22, which will go to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.
He will miss Ottawa's games Sunday in Anaheim and Wednesday at home against the Sharks.
He is eligible to return Saturday against the visiting New Jersey Devils.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
One of the G-Series and a transformable mobile suit built by the Amerian Army based on their Hermes Rose blueprints. Due to a difference in technological capabilities, the G-Arcane is an inferior replication of the blueprints. As a result, the Amerian Army only applies the photon frame to the head unit instead of the whole mobile suit. As a result, it is incompatible with most of the equipment packs developed by the Amerian Army.
However, G-Arcane is still a high performance mobile suit. The skirt-like booster on its hip is capable of sustained atmospheric flight and can transform to increase its speed.
After Megafauna's trip to Venus Globe, the G-Arcane is upgraded with the Full Dress equipment using VGMM-Gb03 Gaeon's spare parts taken from the G-IT Laboratory. The Full Dress equipment replaces the booster with a large battery pack and a set of binders. Photon balancers are also attached to the G-Arcane's head.
- Head Vulcan
- Beam Saber
- Beam Wire
- Anti-Ship Rifle
- The main armament of the G-Arcane. Despite its incredible firepower, the anti-ship rifle is large and heavy, making it unwieldy and not suited for use against other mobile suits. The rifle can emit a beam along its barrel to be used as a large beam sword, but this mode consumes a large amount of energy, and therefore only lasts for a short period of time.
- Beam Rifle
- Shield
- Sensor Burner
- Laser Beam Gun
Special Equipment & Features
- BPAM-05 Assault Pack
Picture Gallery
Notes & Trivia
- The G-Arcane resembles the design of L-Gaim Mark II from the animated series Heavy Metal L-Gaim and may be a homage of the second recurring mecha in the series. The long range rifle, the wrist shield and the wings side-skirts are innate representations of L-Gaim Mark II.
- The G-Arcane's Full Dress layout resembles the GN-010 Gundam Zabanya's GN Holster Bits layout.

Abstract: Owing to the Minamata Convention on Mercury and the Global Mercury Partnership, policies and regulations on mercury management in advanced countries were intensified by a mercury phaseout program in the mercury control strategy. In developing countries, the legislative or regulatory frameworks on mercury emissions are not established specifically, but mercury management is designed to prevent the emission of mercury. Nevertheless, the scenarios from global mercury observation system reported that mercury emissions from selected anthropogenic sources could be estimated to decrease by about 50% by 2020. Advanced control technologies, which can be classified as hardware and software, can be applied to reduce mercury emission from anthropogenic sources. Among hardware technologies, pretreatment technology may be more important than recovery technology and treatment technology to reduce the mobility and toxicity of the materials containing mercury. Software technologies such as educational programs, monitoring systems, material flow analysis for mercury and mercury compounds, and life-cycle analysis to reduce mercury emissions are important to raise awareness of the significance of emission reduction. Finally, future trends of mercury control technologies and monitoring systems are discussed, along with the change in technical guidelines for the mercury emission control, both locally and globally.
Keywords: mercury source, policy and regulation, management program, control technology, mercury emission

Moves the current read-write file pointer by an offset expressed as a 32-bit integer.
This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.

We were really excited to see Instagram's fresh new logo and design, unveiled earlier this month. Gone are the days of the retro camera icon that the world's biggest photo-sharing platform launched with back in 2010, and in its place is a bold, bright, sunset-coloured image.
Interestingly, Instagram's revamped logo is a distinctly smooth, flat design – similar to those used by Google and Uber. A more simplified design overhaul has also taken place within the app itself to put more focus on users' photos and videos, according to Instagram.
We love Instagram's new look here at Avocado Social, especially as we've recently freshened up our look as well (more on that later!). Here we look into the reasons behind the changes and why all brands should consider a periodic refresh.
Switching things up makes total sense given the app's incredible evolution over the past six years from a fairly niche, hipster photo filtering tool to its unrivalled position as the world's number one destination for sharing photographic moments. Now proudly owned by Facebook and boasting 400 million users worldwide, Instagram's journey is truly impressive and the overhaul seems fitting to mark its success and new trajectory.
Instagram's Head of Design himself, Ian Spalter, described the new icon, which was also reflected across Instagram's family of apps (Layout, Hyperlapse and Boomerang) as denoting a new maturity for the company. In his blog for Medium, he candidly revealed that Instagram's app image 'was beginning to feel, well…not reflective of the community, and we thought we could make it better'.
It reminds us of another makeover from a disruptive company two years ago, when Airbnb launched its new logo. The more grown-up look marked a change in the platform's remarkable climb from bedroom startup to a global empire that has shaken up the entire accommodation industry.
As The Guardian journalist Oliver Wainwright wrote at the time, never underestimate the power of an image update: 'In its memorable simplicity, [Airbnb's logo] has an instantly recognisable graphic power equal to the company's increasing ubiquity'. Whilst the new logo faced a fair amount of backlash, it certainly drew attention to the brand and generated incredible amounts of buzz.
Back to Instagram and we're certainly intrigued to see what's next to come in its bright and bold new chapter, given that that the last year alone has seen a surge on advertising revenues, a significant focus on video and exponential growth in users.
We've also recently undergone a brand refresh to mark a new chapter for Avocado Social. Our founder Alison Battisby sheds light on the thinking behind the overhaul:
'After launching Avocado Social in 2014 and a really successful year I felt the need to take our branding and website to the next level. It was crucial to maintain a friendly feel whilst still looking slick and professional.
A brand refresh, when done right, can make a powerful statement to the world, it's a chance to mark the growth of the brand, reset the focus and welcome in the new. I'm really happy with our new look and feel – it's simple and accessible, just like our brand!'

Must be hard, carrying around that gorilla of a to-do list on your shoulders. For every task you cross off, three more appear in its place. Some days, you just feel like Sisyphus, pushing a boulder up a mountain only to have to push it up again once it's tumbled to the bottom.
I'm being overly dramatic, of course, but you get the idea. We've all felt overwhelmed, or helpless or frustrated with work. Work, as you might already know, is the number one cause for stress. Since stress at work is like gravity—inescapable—might as well go to work prepared!
When it comes to stress, few things are as effective at melting it away than Yoga.
The reason is simple, Yoga combines deep breathing with muscle tension and balance. These things put together force a kind of intense focus on the moment that you rarely get during your workday. Your usual multi-tasking mind enters a state of laser-like attention, letting your brain rest and stress dissipate.
Deep, controlled breathing is also proven to dilute stress. Even a few cycles of deliberate slow breathing has been shown to have a lasting calming effect. Deep breathing eases your heart rate (which can spike while stressed), muscle tension and blood pressure—the usual symptoms of a stress response.
The 7 Yoga exercises that will reduce stress quickly
I've put together a shortlist of the 7 best yoga stretches and movements that squeeze out all the stress from my body. It works for me, and for many others, so I'm hoping it will work for you. Also, a pro tip: don't wait until you're going nuclear with stress. Make stress management a daily practice. Remember—It's easier to control a small campfire than to extinguish a forest fire.
☝ Breathe in a lung-full of air, then control your exhale on the release:

Wakeout comes with over 60 Yoga exercises and routines for work. It's a great way to unwind at work to stay calm, productive and prevent burnout.

Breastfeeding - what the experts say
Deciding to breastfeed
For thousands of years, breastfeeding has been the only way for women to feed their babies; the question of whether to breastfeed or not never came up. Today, mothers have a choice when their baby is born. For most of them, breastfeeding is a completely natural thing to do after pregnancy. In fact, around 70% of babies born in France are breastfed after leaving the hospital. This figure represents a significant increase. In 1992, slightly fewer than half of babies were breastfed after going home.But it still remains low compared to other countries, especially northern European nations. In Norway, for example, 98% of mothers nurse their babies during their first weeks of life.
Breast milk, a human infant's natural food, provides incomparable nutrition that perfectly meets your baby's needs and adapts to these needs as they grow. In addition to nourishing the infant, breastfeeding is also a new physical experience for the mother that creates a creates a unique emotional and skin-to-skin bond with the baby. Nursing has many benefits both for you and your baby:
- For your baby
- Breastfeeding reduces the risk of infections because human milk is naturally rich in protective properties and boosts your baby's immune system.
- According to various studies, it also plays a role in preventing allergies, especially those related to food.
- It reduces the risk of obesity.
- For you
- It helps your uterus return to its normal size more quickly after childbirth.
- It improves your health: according to a number of studies, nursing lowers the risk of developing osteoporosis and breast, ovarian or uterine cancer.
- It helps you develop a deep emotional bond with your baby and creates a sense of well-being due to the release of certain hormones during feeds.
- It makes your life easier and saves you money: no bottles to prepare and no formula to buy!
- With few exceptions, all women can breastfeed their babies. A lack of information, however, can lead to failure. If you want to nurse your baby, get as much information as possible during your pregnancy. There are many books on the subject and you can also talk about it with your midwife, doctor or lactation consultant.

Galerie DUMONTEIL is pleased to present the solo exhibition of French artist Wensen Qi ( born in 1977 ), or as known in his original name, Vincent Cazeneuve. The exhibition features the most recent lacquer and paintings on rice paper that Wensen created in mountain regions near Chongqing, and showcases the seemingly rusticated artworks, yet only achievable through his excellent mastery of the ancient Chinese lacquer painting. Wensen's works have travelled around the world, notably in France and China, and have been recognized by numerous private collectors in France, Italy, Switzerland, the United States, and China.
The story of Wensen Qi is an unexpected artistic journey. Born in France in the mountains of Toulouse region in 1977, Wensen has been fascinated by cabinet making, marquetry, and gilding. He accomplished his studies at Ecole des Metiers d'Art in Revel, the city of the art of furniture, and opened his first studio specialized in the restoration of Western and Asian lacquer wares. When he realized that in order to achieve the full knowledge of lacquer material, he had to trace its origin, Wensen decided to travel to China. In the city of Chongqing, the sumacs growing in the mountains provide resin necessary for producing lacquer; they also bring back memories from his homeland. Following the steps of the masters, he gradually learned the secret of lacquer, as well as the traditional Chinese culture centred around this particular form of art.
In Chongqing, Wensen succeeded in having total control over material, its oxidation, as well as the fusion of ramie canvas and bronze leaf. He constructs his pieces – the simple yet complex narration of a story from both occident and orient – with dark colours such as brown, red, and ochre. With the integration of other materials like ramie canvas, wood, rope, bamboos, leather, dried noodles, and even objects from the pollution in the city, these colours bear a rich texture. It is the strong desire for experimenting with these unusual materials that drives Wensen to continue this unpredictable artistic approach. In order to allow these materials to fully integrate with each other, the artist patiently waits, reflects, and again begins his search of the unknown. Thus, the variety of materials endows Wensen's works of both structural and temporal dimensions, in which a modest thinker reveals the beauty conceived in a silent contemplation. Yet the complete artwork is still not the end of the journey, the abstract figures continue to invite personal responses of the viewers, and to engage audience in an active conversation with the artist; behind the act of touching Wensen's lacquer art is the same impulse of curiosity that propels the artist to experiment. The power of the artist over materials was achieved from his dedication to his apprenticeship with the Chinese masters, and more importantly, allows him to step into another unexpected future of infinite possibilities.

We recommend to study the educational material by the German Bundesbank to get a more in-depth knowledge about the fiat monetary system
The financial crisis starting in 2007
The financial crisis of 2007 made it obvious to many people, how unstable our monetary system is. In the media only the symptoms are being discussed, but almost never the actual causes. One main cause is, to simplify, the possibility of arbitrarily raising the amount of money in circulation. For the central banks this is a medium to operate an active monetary policy. As a result of this policy decision the money is losing its purchasing power. In cases of imminent governmental bankruptcy the state even has the power to freeze the bank accounts of its citizens like it happened in Greece. Cryptocurrencies are non-governmental money and therefore an alternative to the old financial system.
A political statement
The creation of Bitcoin in 2009 was not only a technological breakthrough but also a political statement: Satoshi Nakamoto was criticizing the old monetary system when he wrote into the first Bitcoin-Block, the so called "Genesis-Block", a headline from "The Times" dated 3. January 2009. The headline was: "Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks".
Protection from inflation
Because the inflation rate of cryptocurrencies is definitely stated in the beginning it is not possible to create money out of thin air which protects the consumer from arbitrary inflation. This characteristic is extremely important for economically destabilized countries with a high rate of inflation but it is also a significant benefit for people who want to save money.
It is therefore not possible to use cryptocurrencies as book money that is created out of thin air and brought into circulation through credit. The disproportionate issuing of credit called "Fractional Reserve Banking" is not compatible with cryptocurrencies.
Cryptocurrency transactions are facilitated without the help of banks or other intermediaries. Through the decentralized nature of the infrastructure no centralized organization has the ability to get access to the nodes or balances.
One half of humanity is so poor that banks have no interest in working with them. There are no ATMs or physical banks in these areas. Cryptocurrencies have a lower barrier of entry because all you need is an internet connection. It is therefore possible to discover markets for financial transactions that were previously left behind by the global financial system.
