Katie - 2 years ago
Nice class - easing into the poses is new to me; I really got to see where I've rushed it in the past. The left leg half moon is a challenge! :) Thank you!

I enjoyed the first class. Thank you!

Cassandra - 2 years ago
oh wow... I felt that everywhere.... going to need to practice Half Moon on the left side though!! This is the first time I've ever had detail explanations of how your muscles should be activated. My legs are still tingling!!! :) Lovely!!! thank you!
Anat - 2 years ago
good morning everyone
i know one thing all the ankle muscles - I felt them very well
nice practice
Esther - 2 years ago
Good morning everyone, half moon is definitely a challenge, it still is for me ! Great though, you work on so many things at the same time, stability, balance, strength, flexibility. Once you got this pose a lot of the other standing poses will come easier! Keep at it...
Britt - 2 years ago
This class was very useful. I loved the fact that you explained every pose in detail, as that made it easier for me to find out if I did it correctly. The half moon pose is still quite difficult - especially on the left side. When I do bridge pose I feel a little pressure in my lower back, does that mean I'm over stretching or working too hard?
Esther - 2 years ago
Hi Britt, Pay attention to keeping the lower back long, before you lift the hips off the floor flatten your back, and keep that length that that action creates in the lower back, once your hips are lifted remind yourself once more to lengthen your tailbone to the back of the knees. Play around in the pose as well for yourself, what action in the poses relieves the pressure and creates opening for you? In the end there is no one right answer for every body! Your body is your best teacher.
Ali - 2 years ago
Lovely class Esther, thank you! The hardest pose for me is the forward bend. My hamstrings feel so tight! Plenty of practice needed to loosen them up!
You explain the moves very well and you have such a peaceful relaxing voice, I always feel like I get a workout and a relax at the same time!
Pasztor - 2 years ago
Thank You Esther!
Olivia - 2 years ago
That was tough I'm so out of practice, my muscles are very tight as was in a car accident a few weeks ago, so this will be great motivation to get my strength back. Will try it again on Tuesday. Thanks esther looking forward to the next class.
Zeynep - 2 years ago
I've experienced this class just 10 minutes ago :)
It was a grate arrangement for a 30 minutes class. I realy feel that my feet and legs are strengthened.
And I have to say that Im so impressed and inspired by preparation of utthita trikonasana :)
Thank you :)
Sarah - 2 years ago
This was actually a little stressful for me. The video takes forever to buff, so I was stuck, sometimes in the middle of a transition, while waiting for the video to buffer. I have high speed internet, etc., so I'm not sure if there's a fix through this server or not.
Otherwise, GREAT video!!
ana - 2 years ago
Thank you for this class, it was great. I feel really energized. Also had some trouble with half moon pose on my left side. I hope tomorrow it will be better. Can't wait for the next class!!!
Esther - 2 years ago
Sarah, I'm sorry to hear that. That shouldn't be the case, it should work fine. Did you try it on the lower bitrate at 700 ? There is a quality button below in the right corner of the player.. We'll have a look at what is going on. Thanks for letting me know.
Zoe - 2 years ago
Hi Esther! My first full class with you - brilliant! Hoping for these to support my one class a week with my local teacher, enjoying the private time practicing... If only I had a spacious room like yours to practice, not quite the same when I keep hitting the lampshade with my arms ;) looking forward to the next one!
Roberta - 2 years ago
perfect first lesson. thank you! i will put my feedback here in two groups in order to make it clear but please when i speak about negative feedback it is not really "negative" but i use this word in order say what the difficulties i felt, perhaps like a "difficulty" feedback!!
positive feedback: I've really appreciate the way you began the lesson ...lying down, listening one's body, being aware of one's breathing. perfect: normally we use it at the end of the class (in savasana) but i felt perfect in peace beginning your lesson this way! i could feeling my body more deeply and i could respect my breathing more deeply.
negative feedback: it is difficult for my hamstrings to enter directly in triangle pose without many warming poses before...
after the lesson i felt completely good!
tomorrow i will repeat the lesson! happy to do it
Pablo - 2 years ago
Hi, thanks for the practice, Esther. It´s was nice, I hope for you too.
I really got lost with the inhale and exhale series and following the english. I predict this but not the consequences.
Even so I´m happy thinking I´ll learn alternative stuffs extra :)) Be patient
See you
Reni - 2 years ago
Hi Esther,
my problem is I have bad knees so even the most basic standing poses such as warrior or side angle are a huge challenge for me and I am in great pain only after a very short period of time. This makes me very frustrated and disappointed. Do you have any advice for this, how can I modify poses etc? Or is there any way to strengthen the knees and lessen pain? It would be such a huge help. I would really appreciate if anyone had any advice on this... many thanks.
Otherwise great class, and I will try to keep doing it the whole month
Shideh - 2 years ago
Dear Esther,
Thank you so much for this class. Really clear. What I find challenging is up-dog or cobra; with both I feel pressure in my lower back, shoulders feel tight too. I'll keep practicing these consciously, but any advice would be really appreciated.
Look forward to doing this again, and to the next class.
Lori - 2 years ago
Hi Esther,
I am so glad to be part of the September Yoga Month group :-) It is still exciting for me that you are providing such great quality online videos. I have been taking yoga classes off and on for about 10 years and I have been searching for a video or even audio tape to help me with my home practice. I have always been disappointed in some way with everything I have purchased or watched online until now. Esther YOU ROCK :-)
Now on to class 1 - I enjoyed my practice. As other members I struggled with the 1/2 moon pose. It is a pose I have never "mastered" so I wasn't surprised to be so wobbly. I appreciated the mini-savasana at the beginning. It helped me shift from life into yoga. It was funny though as you were explaining STOP and allowing everything to just be my black lab bolted across the floor and started to lick my face. Oh the love of a lab and I allowed the love to just be, hahaha. I appreciated your explanation of the subtleties of the asanas as it helps teach me what to look for, how it feels, and how to get there. Yoga is a process and you are really helping me with that process. After tonight's class I felt good. I did have some pain due to my joint (arthritis) and muscular skeletal problems as well as I have a tendency to push myself. I am glad you reminded me to not push and listen to my body. I love your soft voice and I really appreciate that you don't have background sounds or music. I am going to practice class 1 again tomorrow night and I look forward to class 2 on Wednesday. Namaste
Esther - 2 years ago
Reni K. Hi, I can imagine that pain in your knee is frustrating. When the knees are weak you should spend a little extra time in warming them up before your yoga practice. An example is to stand with your feet together and your knees bend. Place the hands on your knees with your arms straight and your fingers pointing toward your toes. Keep your knees together and rotate them in a circular motion. When you have knee trouble you also want to warm up hips and ankles. The knee pain could come from stiff hips as well, so warm up the hips with some squats and hip circles as well. For the standing poses you can sit on a chair to take the weight of the knees, but you still get the stretch in the hips, when the hips open more the knee pain might change as well... Also look at my youtube video about knees on my channel for more ideas and tips.
Good luck!
Esther - 2 years ago
Shideh Lennon Hi, In Upward Facing Dog Pose / Urdhva Mukha Svanasana and Cobra Pose / Bhujangasana it is really important to lift the hip points,( the bony part at the front of the hips) towards the ribcage. That action lengthens the lower back. That might help you to relieve pressure. The other thing is of course to go less far and be more conservative till the back opens up more. Taking sfinx pose instead of cobra and leaving up dog altogether, at least keeping the knees down. Withregards to the shoulders keep the elbows a bit bend, draw the shoulders down and top of the shoulders back. Arms don't have to be straight. Hope this helps :)
Esther - 2 years ago
Lori Marshall Ah, exactly what my dog would do :-) Good reaction, let the love enter!!
Mary Jane - 2 years ago
Beautiful practice. I love starting in a centering meditation. Your explanation of half moon made it easier for me to get into the pose, which has always been difficult. Thank you!!!!
Zorana - 2 years ago
I really enjoyed this class and I love the whole idea about yoga month. Since I'm in the middle of preparing for my exams, I find this class pretty energising and revitalising. Dynamic Utthita Trikonasana works great for me as a preparation for the full position. I'm looking forward to the next class.
Thanks fot this lovely project =)
Katie - 2 years ago
Just finished doing the class for the second time. I can already feel some improvement. :)
Roberta - 2 years ago
today i put my insight on the last pose paschimottanasana that was my negative feedback yesterday: I felt my beck more and more, looking for extension of my beck and with acceptance for the way it is and finally I felt ok when I entered in savasana. better then yesterday
a question: I felt also my psoas very tired. perhaps I used too much them in paschimottanasana? how can i do to work on my beckbending without force too much the ileopsoas? or do you think is good to work it hard?
Melinda - 2 years ago
Hi Esther!
It's so great to practice along with you! It's energizing and calming at the same time.
I've been following you for some months, and I am getting better and better!
Half Moon Pose is so fantastic! It was new to me, and I love that it also needs so much strength and stability what I want to build up in my body and mind. :)
Thank you!
Thomas - 2 years ago
Hi Ester!
I have just finiched the the class for the first time together with my wife. You are so great talking us in to the poses. All the details in the instructions are very god and yet you are able to make space for every differences there might be in every idividual body.
The feeling during and after the class is great :-)
Thank you!
Cara - 2 years ago
Hi Esther,
I really love this class, and I've done it every day since it came out. I'm having a bit of a problem, though -- it keeps stopping to reload, sometimes in the middle of a pose, other times as I'm transitioning into and out of poses. I haven't had any problems with other websites, nor have I had problems with other videos on this site or you youtube videos. I've changed it to the lower quality, and I no longer make it full-screen, but to no avail. I wonder if it's heavy site traffic or something else?
Beany - 2 years ago
Wow. That was exactly what I needed! The Half Moon pose was new for me. I could do it- but much improvement is needed. It's evening here-- and I feel this was a great practice for evening as well as it would be morning. As Melinda said-- it's calming and energizing. Now I can make a lovely, healthy supper and enjoy a wonderful productive yet relaxing evening. Thanks! Look forward to the next class (after I do this one more time).
Lori - 2 years ago
Hi Esther,
As this is my second practice of class 1 I noticed an areas of difficulty I missed last night. While in triangle pose I hurt my right lower back and right hip. The pain occurs when I reach out with my right arm and lower it to the floor. When I reach out with my left arm and lower it to the floor my left lower back and left hip feel tight or strained. Do you have any advice as to what I may be doing that causes this pain + tightness. Thanks.
Katy - 2 years ago
Hi Esther,
First thank you for wonderful classes, they have helped me immensity throughout my graduate school program. I do not know what I would do with your wonderful videos to help my body and quiet my mind. Second, I really liked this video. It was a great length and the intro of how to position front leg in triangle pose was very helpful as well. Half moon pose was the only standing pose I really struggled to do. Thank you for the lovely class.
Megan - 2 years ago
Esther, thank you so much for the free September classes. I've practiced Class 1 every day since the 1st, and I'm excited to continue.
I can feel how helpful the balance poses have been and will be--physically (today I tripped but avoided a scary fall) and mentally. My life is sometimes frighteningly out of balance, so it's a huge relief to find a way to feel centered. I know that daily yoga will be powerfully and increasingly stabilizing.
Jacinta - 2 years ago
Sorry Esther the videos are playing that way for me too....I have to wait for the buffer to continue. i have used it to my advantage though taking a breath or staying in the position. But it is a bit awkward when you are giving an instruction. Great site and thank you.
Rebecca - 2 years ago
This was my first "full" yoga class since giving birth three weeks ago... needless to say, it was challenging :). It also reminded me that it will be a pleasure to get back into my yoga practice. I have been doing a few sun salutations daily since the birth, and this definitely challenged me in terms of balance and stamina. Like many others have said, I found the half-moon pose to be the most challenging. My hamstrings are tighter than they've ever been, and my balance has some rebounding to do as well.
Whenever I felt it was difficult, though, I must say that your instructions and kind, patient voice helped me focus and breathe through it! Looking forward to the rest of the month.
Esther - 2 years ago
@Jacinta Costello, at the bottom of your player is a "quality" button, click that and select "700" Hope that will solve your buffer-problem.
Alice - 2 years ago
thank you Esther, I do it and I feel better. I like this class, I'm italian and sometimes I don't know all the details of your instructions...but I'm trying to learn following you in your video, you are the best! Namaste.
Rice - 2 years ago
class one was fantastic! though like many others i struggled with the half moon but it got easier on day 2 :-)
Maria Alejandra - 2 years ago
Hi Esther, a question about half moon, as well as this video is not for advanced yogis, could you start it with a block and then leave it?. First time i tried to get inside this asana, it was hard for me, but using a block from the very beginning it was easy. Thank you so much, for all your classes. Your voice guide me. Namaste.
Shameem - 2 years ago
thankyou esther for doing it free now ican see them
Dominika - 2 years ago
Hi Esther, first class is fantastic.Whole webside is awesome, full of professional details, so significant for begginers, like me. Thank You for doing this for free :D
Esther - 2 years ago
@ Roberta Morisi, Hi Roberta, its good to work the psoas but don't forget to release the psoas as well. It sounds to me yours is a bit tight. I will upload a yoga class soon all about releasing the psoas, and back bending. That might shed some light! Thank you so much for your feedback! All the best..
Esther - 2 years ago
Cara Jones Hi Cara, The heavy traffic could definitely be the reason! We will make the video's available in 400 as well, that should help too. Let me know if you keep having problems.
Esther - 2 years ago
@Maria Alejandra Duarte, Hi, of course you only use a block till you don't need it anymore. If you feel comfortable trying it without, that would be great!
Lauren - 2 years ago
I enjoyed this video so much. I didn't get to do it until Saturday because of my school schedule, and I wanted to try it again but I was shocked to see that its not free anymore. It was free on Saturday! But it was a great class and I feel it EVERYWHERE!
Josh - 2 years ago
Darn, I was going to try this series but it looks like it's no longer free. I thought this series would be for the month of September? :o(
The last one is but the first two are not. I guess I am too late to join in the legs part...so I'll start with twists then.
Thank you so much for the videos!

Roger - 1 year ago
Very inspiring class! One question--in Happy Baby pose, if holding your feet causes the sacrum to lift, should you then hold the ankles and keep the sacrum grounded?
Esther - 1 year ago
Thank you Lolita! Also for your continuing support ..
Roger, keep the sacrum on the floor as a rule, but it is always good to vary now and then if it feels good..

Lovely class, esther and a great start to National Yoga month! I find the sitting forward bend quite challenging - seems difficult to keep a straight back and I don't seem to move that much forward either.. will keep practising till I get flexible. Will keep your advice with me and be more aware of my feet and legs. You are an amazing guru ! Namaste ! __/\__

Fixing myki to get Victoria's transport ticketing system back on track
The Coalition Government will put Victoria's transport ticketing system back on track with an effective and reliable ticketing system for passengers and a financially responsible outcome for Victorian taxpayers.
Premier Ted Baillieu said extensive technical, commercial, and financial analysis of the existing system and options for Victoria's transport ticketing system has now been completed.
Since March, high-level discussions have been held with NTT Data, the new Japanese parent company of the myki contractor Kamco.
Mr Baillieu said the government's negotiating team had recently met with NTT Data in Japan to finalise discussions over the future of myki, and secured commitments to deliver the ticketing system within new parameters.
Today's announcement will enable the final negotiations for the revised contract to proceed with the local subsidiary.
"The revised contract will deliver a reliable ticketing system with strengthened project management and governance arrangements ensuring system improvements and content delivery occur on schedule and on budget," Mr Baillieu said.
"Improved project management governance and key performance measures will be a key part of the revised ticketing contract."
A third-party certifier will also be appointed to oversee the remaining build phase to ensure the system fully meets the State's and the public's requirements.
A rigorous testing and project oversight regime will also be introduced which will inform the third-party Certifier at critical evaluation points up to the end of the delivery phase.
The complexity of the project will be reduced where possible in order to provide a reliable ticketing system and reduce the risk of further unnecessary cost increases.
Changes to the initial project design will include:
- removing V/Line intercity trains and long distance V/Line coach services from the initial scope until at least steady state operations are achieved in metropolitan Melbourne and major regional centres;
- eliminating to the extent possible the introduction of disposable short-term cards, which are currently only in use on certain regional bus services; and
- operating trams without smartcard ticket vending machines (after Metcard equipment is removed).
The ticketing system will be used in Melbourne and on V/Line's 'commuter belt' to Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Seymour and Traralgon.
The government will negotiate for Metcard operations to continue until the end of 2012 to ensure that the smartcard system is working effectively and reliably for commuters before Metcard is phased out completly. This will include a Metcard removal test period.
Transport Minister Terry Mulder said the revised contract, oversight, monitoring and testing regime will ensure the chronic system and project delivery failures that have plagued Victoria's ticketing system will end and the risk of further cost blowouts will be minimised.
"Many problems with the myki ticketing system originated with the inadequate contract the Brumby Labor Government entered into which did not include appropriate governance, project management or financial controls for a project of this size and complexity," Mr Mulder said.
"As a result, the project has blown out by hundreds of millions of dollars, and experienced ongoing delays and systemic failures.
"There are no easy answers to fix the long legacy of Labor's myki mess," Mr Mulder said.
Mr Baillieu said negotiating a revised contract for the ticketing system was the most cost effective outcome for Victorian taxpayers and would allow a reliable ticketing system to be delivered in the shortest possible timeframe.
"The costs of paying out the existing contract, removing the existing system infrastructure, and funding a new system would be far higher than the funding required to make myki work," Mr Baillieu said.
"The Coalition Government will deliver a reliable, effective, and financially responsible ticketing system for Victorians."

Graco DuoGlider Is The Perfect Option For Your Growing Family!
Graco has become one of the most reputable and trusted brands in the market today. It is widely known all over the word for its quality double strollers. They give an excellent opportunity to make trips more pleasant, safe and comfortable for you and your kids. Strollers of this brand are available in different designs and colors. You can choose "gender neutral", "boyish" or "girly" baby gear.
Indeed, arrival of twins is an incredibly exciting event. But it requires lots of money, so as you need two of everything: clothes, cribs, car seats, etc. Fortunately, today it's not a problem to find items designed for multiple children and save some cash. Not only does this stroller good for newborns, but it is also perfect for slightly older children. Therefore, you don't need to purchase a new stroller when your kids get older.
The advantages of Graco DuoGlider
This double stroller has the following benefits:1. Design
The distinctive feature of this stroller is its stadium-style seating design. It allows the rear child to have a good view. The front seat can be reclined about 75% and the rear one reclines fully. But the main benefit of the seats is their safety and comfort. To keep both kids comfortable, each seat has its own sun shade, footrest and canopy. Both of them can hold kids up to 20 kg.2. Weight
Another advantage of these strollers is that they are light. They weight almost as single child strollers. Thus, you can easily maneuver and lift it when needed. What's more, it folds up into a very compact package.3. Easy to navigate
This stroller is incredibly easy to control and navigate through tight stores, supermarkets, etc. You can easily get it through doors. That's why most parents feel that a "side-by-side style" of a stroller is not as convenient as "one seat in front of the other" variant. Maneuvering and pushing this stroller is simple because of durable wheels. When it's time to transport or store it, you can just fold it up.4. Easy to clean
The stroller is easy to clean. If you have little children, you know that dirty spots may appear everywhere. Although this stroller is made of comfortable material, you may clean it easily with the help of soapy cloth or baby wipes.5. Lots of storage capacity
The drop-down storage basket allows you taking bulkier things with you. An easy-access design lets you reach in without disturbing little passengers. Lots of storage capacity gives you the possibility to stow different things for your kids: diaper bags, blankets, toys, clothes, etc. A large basket provides enough room to store all the necessary items for the happy trip. The basket underneath is reliable and huge; thus, you can put there whatever you like.
As you can see, the double stroller has a lot of convenience features for parents as well. So, if the age of your children is close to each other, the double stroller would be the ideal solution for wonderful trips!

I've been seeing a lot of discussion on Twitter and in blogs I follow about the difference in the amount of Acai berry in their various drink products. The question I pose to them is "how much does YOUR body need". Scientists cracked the human DNA code in 2003. They discovered that each of us is 99.1% the same. But it's the other .9% that makes us unique and therefore our body's health needs are unique. Therefore, what is YOUR DNA telling you it needs? Does it need extra help in fighting free radicals with extra doses of anti-oxidants, and if so how much? I took MonaVie for almost a year and found that it gave me extra energy & more sleep. However, I was experiencing severe pain in my hips after a couple hours of dancing for at least a day after. But, then I discovered GeneWize Life Sciences. Time Magazine awarded its top invention to the DNA Assessment Kit. I wanted to find out what my DNA was telling me. I wanted to be able to throw away the 11 containers of vitamin and mineral supplements my wife insisted I needed, and if possible to be free of the cholesterol prescription I am taking. My DNA Analysis indicates that out of the 12 SNP's it tests, 2 of mine are in need of "Maximum Support" and 5 need "Added Support". SNP's (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) R small variations in DNA. These account 4 all human differences including HOW EFFICIENT WE ARE AT KEY BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES. The 1st SNP that needed maximum support is my VDR (Vitamin D Receptor). In addition, one of the areas I need "Added Support" is the MMP-1 (collagen). This is the main component of cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and bone. Hmm this might account for my hips being so weak! The 2nd SNP that needs maximum support is ApoB (Apolipoprotein B)-"bad" Cholesterol carrier. Again the question "how much of the anti-oxidant Acai berry do I need". The answer FOR ME is "NOT VERY MUCH" since my DNA handles the problem.

To be deemed disabled by the Régie, you must:
You must not be receiving an unreduced income replacement indemnity from the Commission de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CSST) granted after 31 December 1985.
The fact that an insurance company or other agency or government department considers you to be disabled does not automatically mean that you will be entitled to a disability pension under the Québec Pension Plan, since the eligibility requirements may be different.
You have contributed sufficiently to the Québec Pension Plan if you have:
Check your Statement of Participation to see whether you have contributed sufficiently.
Your disability is recognized as severe and permanent if you are unable to do any type of work on a full-time basis. Your disability is not considered severe by the Régie if you can do work that takes your limitations into account and for which you would earn more than 14 835 $ in 2014. Your severe disability must also be permanent. A severe disability is permanent if it is expected to last indefinitely, without any possibility for improvement.
Temporary disability (or temporary incapacity to work) is not covered under the Québec Pension Plan.
Factors such as language, the availability of work and place of residence are not taken into account in the medical evaluation of a contributor's ability to work.
For contributors age 60 to 65 to be deemed to be disabled by the Régie because they are unable to do their regular work, they must show that they recently worked, that is, that they contributed to the Plan for at least 4 of the last 6 years in their contributory period.
If you become disabled before age 65 and you are receiving a retirement pension that you can no longer cancel in order to receive a disability pension, you could be entitled to an additional amount for disability.
At age 65 the disability pension will automatically be replaced by a retirement pension. The amount of the retirement pension will be reduced by 6% for each year (0,5% for each month) for which you received a disability pension between the ages of 60 and 65. For example, if you receive a disability pension from age 62 to 65, your retirement pension that begins at age 65 will be reduced by 18% (3 years × 6%).
Depending on your date of birth, you could also be entitled to an Old Age Security pension from the federal government.
If you have contributed to the Canada Pension Plan, the Régie takes those contributions into account when determining entitlement to benefits and calculating the amount of your pension.
If you have participated in the pension plan of a country with which Québec has a social security agreement, those years of contribution can be added to your participation in the Québec Pension Plan, possibly making you eligible for a disability pension.

Pad & Quill Walden Collection for iPad Air: TUAW Video Review
Many of the leather Pad & Quill iPad cases that we've reviewed over the years have had one thing in common -- they're all rather thick when you take the Baltic birch frame into account. The Pad & Quill designers went back to the drawing board for the new Walden Collection case for iPad Air (US$49.99, introductory price of $44.99), and have created a case that proves that classy leather protection doesn't need to be thick or expensive.
It's light, it's skinny, and it is also one of the more affordable leather covers for the iPad Air. While it doesn't protect the sides of the iPad as well as the more expensive and thicker wood-framed cases from Pad & Quill, the Walden Collection case is perfect for keeping your iPad Air safe while in transit.

MTSU, Oaklands create exhibit of billowing bridal beauty
MURFREESBORO — Decades of loveliness and elegance will be on display at Oaklands Historic House Museum in the "Wedding Dresses through the Decades" exhibit Jan. 13-March 3.
In partnership with MTSU's Department of Human Sciences, Oaklands will fill Maney Hall with bridal fashions ranging from the brocade and satin of the 1870s to the sensible suits of wartime weddings in the 1940s.
The exhibit will begin with an open house from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 13, for the regular museum admission price of $5 per person.
The dresses will come not only from the museum's collection, but also from women in Murfreesboro and around the country. One of the contributors is Linda Hall, executive secretary in the MTSU College of Behavioral and Health Sciences.
Hall's dress was handmade for her by her mother-in-law, Imogene Hall, a watercolor artist in the Murfreesboro area.
"I wanted a style that would be elegant and timeless," Hall said.
After some alterations, Linda's daughter, Kristin, wore the same dress when she was wed in July 2012.
"The main difference is that she had the long sleeves removed and replaced with cap sleeves," Hall said. "They used the leftover lace from the dress to create the sleeves."
Some dresses in the museum collection are fragile and delicate, according to Oaklands curator Nila Gober. Others have not been on public display since the bride's wedding day.
"Wedding Dresses through the Decades" is in conjunction with "Language of Love and Courtship" tours that also will take place through March 3. The exhibit and tours are included with the regular $5 admission to the museum.
The exhibit will be open during regular visiting hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Saturday and from 1 to 4 p.m. Sundays. Museum tours are available at regular rates and normal museum hours.
Oaklands Historic House Museum, located at 900 N. Maney Ave. in Murfreesboro, is a nationally registered historic landmark that reflects a time of prosperity in the Old South, as well as the hardships suffered during the Civil War.
For more information, contact Oaklands at 615-893-0022 or firstname.lastname@example.com or the MTSU Department of Human Sciences at 615-898-2884.

text: A killer debut from Curtis Hairston – an overlooked 80s soul singer who should have made it big, given the strength of this set! The album's got a tight groove, but is never too commercial – a bit away from other Atlantic soul of the time, thanks to some solid studio help from Kae Williams of BB&Q Band, a group with whom Hairston had worked previously. Williams arranged and produced half the set – the rest was done by Greg Radford – and the album mixes Hairston's well-crafted vocals with a mixture of upbeat rhythms and mellower tunes, the latter of which we like the best. Titles include "You're My Shining Star", "Chillin Out", "All We Have Is Love", "Take Charge", "The Morning After", and "Hold On (For Me)".

Post subject: Caterpillars Inspire Development of Morphing Chemical Robots
Early phase of the chemical robot development, inspired by the Manduca sexta caterpillar
Scientists at Tufts University have received a $3.3 million contract from the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop chemical robots that will be so soft and squishy that they will be able to squeeze into spaces as tiny as 1 centimeter, then morph back into something 10 times larger, and ultimately biodegrade.
The advantages of using unmanned devices to conduct dangerous or difficult operations are clear, and the U.S. has invested in such devices for years. But today's rigid robots, constructed mostly of hard materials, are unable to navigate complex environments with openings of arbitrary size and shape. They are stymied by, say, a building whose only access points may be a crack under a door or a conduit for an electrical cable.
The Tufts team will design the "chembots" to be capable of performing feats no current machine can accomplish, according to Professor of Biology Barry Trimmer, the Henry Bromfield Pearson Professor of Natural Sciences and co-principal investigator on the project. Among these tasks will be the ability to enter confined or complex spaces; follow cables, ropes or wires; and climb trees or other branched structures.
According to Dr. Mitchell Zakin, Ph.D., DARPA program manager for the ChemBots program, "DARPA's ChemBots program represents the convergence of soft materials chemistry and robotics.It is an entirely new way of looking at robots and could someday yield great technological advantage for our armed forces."
Chembots could extend the capabilities of today's unmanned ground vehicles by accessing urban environments, tunnels, caves and debris fields. Once in place, the energy-efficient chembots could survey the area using little power and then morph to accomplish their task.For example, they might gain entry to an improvised explosive device to gather information or potentially disable the device. Other applications include landmine detection, search and rescue in hazardous conditions, and biomedical diagnosis. They will also be capable of carrying miniature or micro versions of themselves for access to areas on an even smaller scale.
Bionic Caterpillars
The robot design is inspired by the team's findings on both the remarkable neuromechanical system of the Manduca sexta caterpillar and the extraordinary material properties of biopolymers.
The Tufts chembots will copy some of the performance capability of Manduca, including its flexibility, climbing ability and scalability - from hatching to the end of its larval stage, the caterpillar grows 10,000 fold in mass using the same number of muscles and motor neurons. Trimmer has been studying the nervous system and behavior of this caterpillar for almost two decades.
Key to success will be the use of new biomaterials. While the Tufts team will build the initial chembots with existing synthetic soft materials and actuators, the next stage of the project will use novel soft bionic composites that will be biocompatible and biodegradable.
"Use of all-biodegradable biopolymer systems will allow use of the robots in a broad range of environmental applications, as well as medical scenarios, without requiring retrieval after completion of the designated tasks," noted co-principal investigator David Kaplan , Stern Family Professor of Biomedical Engineering and chair of biomedical engineering. "We expect that these devices will literally be able to disappear after completing their mission."
The biomaterials will be designed from bioengineered polymers, which the group has studied for many years.
Wireless Telemetry Saves Energy
The complete chembot is envisioned to have multiple hair-like sensors for temperature, pressure, chemical and audio/video and to use wireless communication. The Tufts team has been developing strategies for wireless telemetry, including technology that uses 60 per cent less electricity than conventional devices.
The project is based at the Advanced Technologies Laboratory at Tufts University and will include experts in bio/tissue engineering, soft animal neuromechanics, micromechanical engineering, soft material characterization and modeling, wireless transmission of data and power, mixed mode integrated circuit design, and mobile robot navigation and sensor fusion.
The team plans to build prototype chembots as small as 2 grams and as large as 200 grams.With access to appropriate manufacturing capabilities, researchers say that these devices could be built at low cost in large numbers and at micro (mg) or macro (kg) levels.
Trimmer, a neurobiologist, has been using Manduca as a model system since 1990 through grants from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. His goal has been to better understand how caterpillars can control their movements using a simple brain and how they can move so flexibly without joints. By applying findings from the caterpillar research, his laboratory has built the first fully soft bodied robot prototypes, which will be further adapted to this new project using the expertise of Tufts engineers.
Kaplan, whose laboratory focuses on biopolymer engineering, has already uncovered the secret of how spiders and silkworms are able to spin webs and cocoons made of incredibly strong yet flexible fibers. His team has applied genetic engineering and nanotechnology to create a "fusion protein" that for the first time combined the toughness of spider silk with the intricate structure of silica.His work on biopolymers has been supported by the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the Air Force Office of Scientific Research and the W.M. Keck Foundation.
In addition to Trimmer and Kaplan, team members include Associate Professor Luis Dorfmann, civil and environmental engineering; Assistant Professor Valencia Joyner, electrical and computer engineering;Senior Lecturer Gary Leisk, mechanical engineering; Assistant Professor Sameer Sonkusale, electrical and computer engineering,; and Assistant Professor Robert White, mechanical engineering.

You hummed quietly to yourself as you sliced the tops off of strawberries to dip in chocolate that was sitting in a small pot over a stove flame. Your good friend, Vladimir, was coming over for a movie marathon that had been planned weeks in advance. You would cover snacks, Vlad would pick the movies.
A knock was heard at the door before it was swung open. "(F/n)!" Vlad called through your empty house.
With a small laugh you told him you were in the kitchen and that you'd be out in just a moment. Distracted by thoughts of the strawberry-blonde boy from Romania, you forgot about the sharp knife in your hand and cut too deeply into one of the red berries, nicking your fingertip with the small blade.
"Ouch!" you hissed before dropping the knife on the counter, along with the cut fruit. You were about to stick your finger under the faucet to wash away the blood, when your hand was grasped gently by Vlad's.
He pulled you closer, his crimson gaze steady on the little bead of the same color forming over your wounded skin. "Here," he said, his low voice barely audible, "let me help."
You were shocked by the sight of his head lowering to your hand, then by the feeling of his soft lips pressing to the cut. A bright blush coated your face as he wrapped his lips onto the sides of your finger, allowing his tongue to wipe away the metallic blood. When he was sure the flow had stopped, he pursed his lips and pulled your hand away from him before leading you over to the cabinet where you kept your medical supplies.
With a small smile, he pulled out a box of 'Mickey Mouse' band-aids.
"Be more careful next time," he muttered, wrapping the adhesive bandage around your finger.
You were snapped out of your stupor by his voice and hurriedly responded, "Ah, yes. Sorry."
Vlad's smile grew slightly and his ruby eyes closed as he pat the top of your head. "Good girl."
Blush growing, you pushed his hand away and crossed your arms. "I am not your dog," you told him with a small pout.
He shrugged and walked into the TV room. You followed, grabbing the strawberries and chocolate on your way out.
Walking into the small room, you noticed that Netflix was cued up on your TV, though you couldn't even see Vlad around all the pillows and blankets he'd piled onto the couch. With a big grin on your face, you set the sweets onto your wooden coffee table and flopped right in the center of the pile, landing square on top of Vlad. All the air left his lungs in a small woosh as you nuzzled further into the blankets separating the two of you.
When you turned around you saw him poke his head out of the blankets surrounding him. He pouted at you but pushed the blankets aside until they covered both of you. Of course, that also put you sitting in the Romanian's lap. You went to move, but Vlad held you close as you noticed the movie was starting. It was another horror movie. Of course. You wrapped your arms securely around him.
"I hate you."
He laughed and allowed you to clutch yourself tighter to him at every noise you heard. "No you don't."
30 minutes later, you were near tears but wouldn't stop the movie.
Vlad sighed, rolling his scarlet eyes, "(F/n). Seriously. It's just a movie. We can pause-"
"No we can't!"
He shook his head and stopped the movie anyways. You immediately jumped up from your spot. "Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!" you shouted. Vlad simply listened to your small rant. "She just-"
You paced to his other side. "And he-"
Stopping in front of him, you repeated your first sentence over again, "Oh. My. God!"
He pat his lap, encouraging you to sit back where you once were, which you gladly did. As you snuggled back under the blankets, you noticed he didn't put the movie back on and you looked at him with wide, (e/c) eyes.
"I'm done with the movie for now," he sighed, folding his arms around you and shifted so that he was laying down with you on top of him.
You reached for the remote, "But I'm not!" you cried to him. The two of you struggled for a moment over the power of the remote but you eventually let him win, deciding you didn't really want to panic anymore tonight.
Burrowing back into the mess of blankets, you huffed at Vlad, "Fine. But only because I don't want you scared."
Loud laughter came from the man and he quickly pressed his lips to your forehead. Your angry glare subsided to a confused, then worried expression. That it, until you heard Vlad's next words. "Oh my God. I just- I just love you so much."
He wiped a tear from his eye and smiled softly at you. "I love you, I really do."
Hope flickered in your (e/c) eyes as you hovered over the Romanian man, "Really?"
"Really, really," he nodded to you.
You bit your lip to contain a squeal and grinned, attempting to cover up your excitement as you rested your head against Vlad's chest, allowing yourself to drift into sleep after murmuring one final sarcastic remark to the boy.
"You're so weird."

9 November 2007 - German economy minister Michael Glos said he opposes demands by the European Commission to unbundle utilities so that power plants and electricity grids are operated by separate entities.
'I am in favour of strong energy companies,' Glos said at a meeting with the heads of E.ON, RWE, Vattenfall and EnBW.
'I am very glad that we have strong energy companies in Germany that can hold their own in European and international competition.'
The four utilities control more than 80 per cent of Germany's power plants combined, FT Deutschland said, citing the German Cartel Office.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/12/2014The food is always great and the staff is always friendly!!! We always have a great time when we go!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food/So So ServiceRyanDined on 10/8/2014My wife and I love Gyu-Kaku and come here about once every other month. Every time we have visitors, we bring them for the experience. The food is outstanding and cooking your own food is really fun. One downside every time we come here is we know the service is going to be slow. After ordering, the food shows up immediately which is great. Servers are usually slow after your main course is served and especially after dessert. Getting the check usually takes 10 to 15 minutes and getting your card or change back will take another 10. This hasn't happened once or twice, it happens each time we're there. We plan for it, if you're in a rush, this might not be the place for you.Special Features:
- Fantastic Food!Fellowship4FoodDined on 9/25/2014The food was really great, but our waiters weren't very attentive or that friendly. Overall it was good though.Special Features:
- SUNNYLICIOUSfoodie2Dined on 9/24/2014We celebrated my Mother in laws 60th birthday . The two servers we had were EXCELLENT . Very attentive & friendly. I am looking forward to coming back soon !Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good-Mood FoodFellowship4FoodDined on 9/23/2014Great place to eat, a little on the expensive side. However, when coming with a lot of people and splitting the bill it comes out usually reasonable. It was nice because they changed out our grill and gave us a good amount of attention where it wasn't overbearing, but we never had to go out of our way to get our server's attention. Overall, great experience!Special Features:
- GreatnessKristenrcDined on 9/19/2014Waited for a bit cause it was a typical, busy Friday night. But the service was well worth the wait. Our server was busy so their GM took our order, which I found to be amazing, cause what restaurant has their GM taking customer orders? I like how the staff all helps each other out! They were very quick to refill drinks. I would go there again!!Special Features:
- Always satisfiedBugzDined on 9/19/2014I've been going to Gyukaku for the past couple of years. I love the food & dipping sauces. Service is usually quick too.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/17/2014Service was quick. Waters and table were cleared quickly. Friendly staff. Helpful with the Gyukaku rewards mobile app. Portion sizes for plates weren't very big. Food was brought out quickly.Special Features:
- Great food and servicealohaVIPDined on 9/6/2014There are very few times when I'm not happy at Gyukaku. The service is excellent and food good. This is one of our favorite dining places.Special Features:
- Great for Family DinnersJrrrsygrrrlDined on 8/30/2014Awesome service, great food, and amazing happy hour pricing, need I say more?! Took my family here for a birthday dinner and they left full and the will was at least a third less than what I was expecting thanks to the happy hour pricing. Would recommend this over and over again to anyone wanting a authentic Japanese style dining at a amazing price. Right on par with places I have enjoyed in Japan.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Excellent service.OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/14/2014Me and my girlfriend went to Gyu-Kaku for our 2 year anniversary. We noticed the walls that used to divide the booths are gone. Which is a bummer, lost a lot of privacy which, we kind of wanted. With that being said because the walls are gone, the noise level in there is a little unbeareable at times. My waiter Cullen could barely hear me at times. Other than that the food is excellent along with its outstanding service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food and service was great!Tam48Dined on 8/11/2014Made reservations online, had to wait awhile before being seated but the food and service we received was great! Too much food in the end but everything tasted awesome.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- kapiolani experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/26/2014This is the 2nd time we've been here in 2 wks.We absolutely luv the food.However, since we've been coming here, since 2007, the svc has gone downhill. I remember that it used to b exciting to walk into, a delight going in & u could tell everyone wanted to be there at work. Now, it seems as if the morale went down & servers don't want to be there.Servers don't know the menu,the drinks,etc. Bathroom was dirty, no toilet seat covers. Grill was broken, it was on high flame or nothing at all.It took a piece of folded paper to keep it on.My sis had some water dripping on her head,went to tell the staff & they just said,oh sorry. I admit, I'd probably still come here but would be nice to see more enthusiasm & pride in such a great restaurant.Special Features:
- Happy HourTheEverythingFoodieDined on 7/24/2014It wasn't busy, but table service lacked a little. We had to go up to get our checks when we were asked if we wanted them. Even with the "manager" there talking to the girl at the register. Everything else was fine, food is always good, especially when you can cook it to your liking. The two young gentlemen who bussed our table and gave us water, and waited on us the rest of the time were extremely hospitable and kept up very nicely. Not the greatest service I've had, but definitely no the worst.Special Features:
- HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORDON!teamkapiheDined on 7/21/2014I brought my husband here for his Birthday. It was both of our first times. We only waited about 5 minutes to be seated whuch was awsome. Our waitress was soooooo nice and explained everything (menu, drinks, grill, etc) very clearly with a smile the whole night. The food was great. And my lihing margarita was delicious. All over a great place for any occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always ExcellentLocalGuyDined on 6/13/2014This place does not disappoint. Food is always great, and the staff energetic and hospitable. They will make you feel welcome and take care of you from start to finish.Special Features:
- Good food and great serviceJiroDined on 5/31/2014We really enjoy our occasional late evening meals. The food is consistently good and the customer service exemplary ... more than worth the traffic from the leeward side.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good fun...Good food!KathleenDined on 5/16/2014Love this restaurant! Had a late dinner at the Torrance, Ca. location and was thrilled to learn there was one in Hawaii!! Had our anniversary dinner at the Honolulu location, and we were not disappointed! Food was awesome...presentation was fabulous...staff was wonderful! Love the S'Mores! Looking forward to going back soon...maybe during Happy Hour!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great grinds at Gyu-Kaku!GwensGrindsDined on 5/1/2014The food and service for our party of 6 was fantastic. I had pre-ordered the Kamehameha menu for our group, and the food came faster than we could eat and cook it! There was so much food we had to take some home. This restaurant is definitely a go-to place.Special Features:
- One of our favorites!Food4usDined on 4/26/2014We love the food and the experience. If you haven't already go checkout out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I want that grill!HulaGrrrlDined on 4/20/2014The star at Gyu-Kaku is the grill. No smoke, just awesome direct flame that perfectly cooks your meal to perfection. I hosted dinner to two picky eaters and they loved the experience ..at 86 and 91 years old, you know what is good! Our waiter was outstanding and the constant attention to keep the dishes moving, changing the grill mid-meal, made us feel well-cared for and special. The quality of meats and variety of items to grill also made for a fun meal. Try to make it to happy hour and save a little too!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 4/15/2014Definitely one of the highlights of the trip! - the food is great and the customer service is one of the best - we always make come here when we are on vacation!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent food and customerkaratemamaDined on 4/6/2014Excellent food and customer service! A must for any occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Usually a better nightcapri8668Dined on 3/24/2014This was my third time here, but tonight was so problematic that I might stay away for awhile. Service issues: tongs not provided when the food was delivered; server turned down the fire when we were in the middle of cooking; server forgot to use the happy hour prices even though we had the red menus; mix ups with the rewards cards bringing us someone else's card Issues with the food: Chicken pieces were mismatched is size, some really big and others really small made it hard to cook; kalbi steak was unusually fatty and three pieces were not edible (considering you only get 4 oz. this was 1/3 of the portion) Of course with all the issues to top it off, I forgot to use my isle discount card to get $5 off bill. : (Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding Happy HourjnishVIPDined on 3/23/2014Outstanding value on appetizer & menu items for diners ordering before 6:30 pm - every nite. Draft beer & sake on special, too!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun!GeelockDined on 3/14/2014I visited this place for a blind date (my first) and it was a great location for the occasion. Waiter was very helpful in explaining the options and the menu was filled with great choices. The food was great and the prices were reasonable..overall I would recommend this place and would revisit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- pleasedhappyDined on 2/26/2014We haven't been there for maybe eight months. We went for a belated Valentine's gift due to busy family schedule. There were three of us, two adults one child. We were able to make make same day reservations. Our table was ready on time. We felt welcome as we walked in. Placed our order. Drinks and food trickled in. Service fast, friendly and helpful. Drinks and food delicious. They cleaned out table throughout our time there which is nice. Then we ordered dessert which was delicious too. When the bill came we were shocked we actually thought it was going to be higher, forgot we still was on happy hour. We left with full happy tummies with money still left in wallet. Very good dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- pleasantly surprisedkrazydinerDined on 2/25/2014after eating at the waikiki location and having the worst experience at this resturant chain possible, i was very pleased and surprised and the service i got from kapiolani. the service was great. even though we had a trainee for a waitress she gave us better service then the veteran at waikiki. i would recommend people to come to kapiolani anyday and stay away from waikiki..Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun place to eat!Kanoe95Dined on 2/23/2014I really enjoyed the energetic and casual atmosphere of Gyu-Kaku. Tables are spacious, food comes fast and servers were on their toes with orders and drink refills. The fun part is being able to cook your own food the way everyone in your party likes it. The 2 times I came here we made it in time for Happy Hour which was 20% almost everything on the menu. I would definitely reccommend this place to friends and family!Special Features:
- Atmospheric & FulfillingOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/14/2014I don't know whether or not reserving months in advance had to do with it, but on Valentine's Day, I took my girlfriend back to this place of our first date, and we were seated in a private booth complete with Asian decor and some of the best food we've had to match.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- yakiniku is fun!TonyDined on 2/6/2014i had one experience at a yakiniku restaurant before which was poor; the thought of cooking your own meal at a restaurant irked me. when my friend told me that gyukaku was his favorite restaurant, i gagged, thinking about working for a meal im paying for. anyhow, i gave it a shot. it turned out to be a great experience at gyukaku! the food was so tasty, the place had a cool vibe, the servers were constantly in sight. i finally enjoy the yakiniku experience, thanks to gyukaku. btw, the happy hour is awesome. try it, do it, enjoy it...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- awesome noodles-udondebinsdcaDined on 1/20/2014Loved this meal, waiting in line was soon forgotten, once we got to the front to see all the action--the making of noodles, numerous selections to add on and delicious healthful dinner. A must do for Oahu-Waikiki foodies.Special Features:
- Nope, go somewhere else!krysten2896Dined on 1/17/2014I'm sorry but just do not go here. I had gone here with a party of 7 the other night and we were accommodated to the best of their ability. Sadly, our waiter was just horrific! We had taken our orders but when they arrived, half of the things that we ordered had not been there. It took an additional 20 minutes after the first round of appetizers just to get our gyu kaku nachos. Then, we barely saw our waiter after that. We saw the bus boy more! Seriously? The food portions are just too small and yes, over priced. The service was incredibly horrible and we wanted to tip the bus boy more for being more attentive to us. The syrup for the soda ran out and we were just left with water or coke for those who wanted soda but didn't drink it.Special Features:
- Can't go wrong.ambeesaurusDined on 1/13/2014Always the go-to spot for happy hour. You can never go wrong at gyukaku. Although, I don't especially care for their desserts. I always skip it and get dessert elsewhere. Other than that food and alcohol is always tasty!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I love Gyu-kaku!MarielleDined on 1/4/2014Great food, great service. You can't go wrong. Come for happy hour and be sure to make reservations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I am VERY disappointed with this purchase. The toe ring is a bit bulky, some of the stones already fell out of the toe ring. In addition, the color of the toe ring is now gray.
This is a great toe ring. I put it on and forgot it. Stays on just fine. I am very pleased with it.
Some of the stones fell out already and is slightly tarnished looking. I expected something a little better for the price. I will keep looking for one that I love.
I was really anxious to receive this, but very disappointed when it arrived only to find these are NOT toe rings they can fit your fingers they are so large and the thickness of the metal would have made it next to impossible to wear as a toe ring. I know because I have worn toe rings for more than 10 years
I was disappointed in this product. I put it on the first time and squeezed it to fit to my toe. That worked fine but after about 1 hour I looked down at it and two of the crystal stones had fallen out. I found one but sadly the ring has to go back.
