Pesticide News Story: Pesticide Label Review Manual Chapters 8 and 9 Updated
For Release: October 19, 2012
The EPA's Pesticide Program has posted newly edited versions of Chapters 8 and 9 of its online Label Review Manual. Chapter 8 covers environmental hazards and provides the precautionary language informing users of the potential hazards to the environment from transport, use, storage or spill of the product. Chapter 9 deals with physical or chemical hazard statements that address flammability, explosive potential and precautions, as well as special hazard statements that are required for certain fumigants. The edits are based on over 730 comments on the LRM collected over a two-year period that ended in July 2012. The EPA solicited comments on the LRM from all interested parties through the Enable the Label discussion forum. The updates are editorial in nature, meant to improve the clarity and usefulness of the manual for its users, and establish no new policies. In some cases, obsolete references have been removed and replaced by updated guidance based on more recent rules or other policy documents. Several additional updated chapters should be posted in the near future.

The gallery was opened for public viewing in 1923 and was the first fine arts gallery under the banner of Smithsonian Institution. Apart from housing explicit Asian art work, the gallery also features exclusivework by 19th and 20th century American artists. The gallery features art work from all parts of Asia, ancient Egypt and the Islamic world.
At present the main highlight of the museum is the Peacock Room, a wonderful dining room that was painted by Whistler in the years 1876-77. The room is explicitly decorated in green and gold peacock theme. The artifact was bought by Freer in 1904 and was installed in the gallery later.
The Ancient Chinese Jades and Bronze are on permanent display and is one of the greatest treasures of Chinese art that can be seen outside China. An entire gallery has been dedicated to the magnificent views of the River Thames that were obtained from Whistler's residence and his beautiful artwork, "Nocturne" paintings.
The Religious Art of Japan has sculptures that include brilliant animations of Guardians of the Four Directions and a dignified image of a bodhisattva. In the exhibit Arts of the Indian Subcontinent and the Himalayas you can view exclusive Buddhist, Hindu Jain, and Islamic artifacts. There is also an exhibit on Korean Ceramics that are elegant.
The Freer Gallery of Art is located at the southern side of the National Mall complex and is open from 10:00 AM to 5:30 PM every day except on Christmas (December 25). The Freer Gallery of Art is connected by an underground exhibition space to the adjoining Arthur M. Sackler Gallery. There are a few halal restaurants within close reach of the National Mall where visitors can dine.

Acute respiratory failure is a condition that occurs when fluid builds up in the air sacs in your lungs. When that happens, your lungs cannot release oxygen (air) into your blood. In turn, your organs can't get enough oxygen-rich blood to function. You can also develop acute respiratory failure if your lungs can't remove carbon dioxide from your blood.
Respiratory failure happens when the capillaries in your air sacs cannot properly exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen. The condition can be acute or chronic. In the case of acute respiratory failure, you will experience immediate symptoms from not having enough oxygen in your body. In most cases, this failure may lead to death if not quickly treated.
Types of Acute Respiratory Failure
There are two types of acute (and chronic) respiratory failure: hypoxemic and hypercapnic. Both conditions can trigger serious complications.
There is insufficient oxygen in your blood but near normal carbon dioxide.
There is too much carbon dioxide in your blood and near normal or not enough oxygen.
What Causes Acute Respiratory Failure?
A number of things may lead to acute respiratory failure:
When something gets lodged in your throat, you may have trouble getting enough oxygen into your lungs.
Injuries that impair or compromise your respiratory system can adversely affect the amount of oxygen in your blood. For instance, if you have an injury to the spinal cord or brain can immediately affect your breathing. The brain tells the lungs to breathe. If they cannot relay messages due to injury or damage, the lungs do not continue to function properly.
Injury to the ribs or chest can also hamper the breathing process. These injuries can impair your ability to inhale enough oxygen into your lungs.
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)
ARDS is a serious condition described as low oxygen in the blood. ARDS affects you if you already have an underlying health problem such as pneumonia. It can occur while you are in the hospital being treated for that problem.
Drug or Alcohol Abuse
If you overdose on drugs or drink too much alcohol, you can impair brain function. Your brain may not tell your lungs to breathe or exhale.
Chemical Inhalation
Inhaling toxic chemicals, smoke, or fumes can also cause acute respiratory failure. These chemicals may injure or damage the tissues of your lungs, including the air sacs and capillaries.
A stroke occurs when your brain experiences tissue death or damage on one or both sides of the brain. Often, it affects only one side. Although stroke does present some warning signs such as slurred speech or confusion, it typically occurs quickly. If you have a stroke, you may lose your ability to breathe properly.
Who Is at Risk for Acute Respiratory Failure?
You may be at risk for acute respiratory failure if you:
- smoke (tobacco products) or drink (alcohol) excessively
- have a family history of respiratory disease or conditions
- become injured in the spine, brain, or chest
- have chronic (long-term) respiratory problems, such as cancer of the lungs and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
What Are the Symptoms of Acute Respiratory Failure?
The symptoms vary according to how healthy you are. But most people acute failure of the lungs with low oxygen levels will experience:
- inability to breathe
- bluish coloration in your skin, fingertips, or lips
- passing out
When carbon dioxide is high, your heart rate may increase. You may be confused about your surroundings, who you are, and others around you.
Diagnosing Acute Respiratory Failure
Acute respiratory failure requires immediate medical attention. You may be given oxygen to help you breath and to prevent tissue death in your organs and brain.
After your doctor stabilizes you, he may perform or order specific tests to correctly diagnose your condition. Possible tests include the following:
- a physical exam
- inquiries about your family or personal health history
- checking your body's oxygen levels with a pulse oximetry device or arterial blood gas test (both measure oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood)
- using a chest X-ray to locate abnormal issues in your lungs
Treating Acute Respiratory Failure
Treatment usually addresses any underlying conditions you may have. Then, your doctor will treat your respiratory failure with these possible options.
Pain medications may be prescribed.
For severe cases, a tracheostomy (artificial airway in the windpipe) may be performed.
Alternative Therapies
You may be given oxygen to help you breathe better. This comes in the form of an oxygen tank or ventilator machine. Portable air tanks may be taken home if your condition requires them.
What Can I Expect in the Long Term?
If your underlying problem is treated appropriately, you will see improvement in your lung function. You may also require pulmonary rehab, which includes exercise therapy, education and counseling. Acute respiratory failure can become a long-term condition without the right treatment. It's important to know when to seek emergency medical care.

The Commission wants to put Europe�s cultural heritage on the internet by turning books, photos, records and films into a massive digital library. It has launched a consultation that invites suggestions for legislative measures that could facilitate the digitisation and subsequent accessibility of copyright material while respecting the legitimate interests of authors.
The Information Society and Media Commissioner Viviane Reding believes that the existence of such an internet library project is paramount to the collective memory and identity of Europe, and there will be efforts to make the material in Europe�s libraries and archives accessible to all.

Companion forum thread to:Sunshine Prepares for the Appalachian Trail
Go, Sunshine, go!!!
I will be eagerly anticipating the stories! Good luck!
You two are rock stars. I hope you enjoy your trip to the east!
Are you doing a trail journal? I would like to follow along on your trip. edit: Just found your trail journal. http://www.trailjournals.com/entry.cfm?id=364996Thanks,--louis
Edited by louisb on 03/28/2012 08:33:48 MDT.
Eric your little girls and adorable!
I am envious! My daughter, Jukebox, finished the trail in 2009 at age 18. It has been my dream to thru-hike for several years but I have only been able to section hike. I did manage to do a few sections with her including her finish at Springer Mountain.And if you really want to be southern all-y'all need to be safe and have a good time!!
I certainly enjoyed following your 2011 PCT adventure and I'm looking forward, once again, to follow your 2012 AT adventure. Good luck out there on the trail this year.
What a fantastic family! I wish you luck on your AT hike. I was just ahead of you on the PCT in Oregon. I was hiking with Wired at that time. I remember seeing notes on the trail written for Sunshine to pick up. I'm sure they were notes saying how amazing she is.What are Keen Mesh Ramblers? I don't see them on the Keen site.
Edited by HairlessApe on 03/28/2012 09:41:49 MDT.
Re: Cuben rain chaps--I scuffed holes in mine at the inner ankles within a day or 2. You might want to reinforce the bottom or rig a strap closure. I had Dirty Girl gaiters but the chaps always slid out after a short time. Kudos to you both for the Active Water endorsement, for "walkin' the talk!" I met you 2 on the PCT last year just north of Crater Lake NP, and the renowned Billy Goat just 20 minutes later. I'm not a big blog follower, but it has been such a pleasure keeping up with you 2. I'm so delighted you're continuing on with your spirited forays!Maxine (Dys-feng shui-nal)
Dear Sunshine and Balls,We are excited to follow your journey once more. I ended up reading your PCT account as bedtime stories to our girls and they simply ate it up. They will be thrilled to follow you on the AT as they are inspired for their own hikes by your steady stories. May God bless your every step.
How exciting! I won't be able to follow your progress online, but hope to meet you on the trail, when you pass me. I'm starting 3/30 from Standing Bear Farm. N of the Smokies, And will also be traveling N, though at a slower pace. So if you pass an older lady with wooden hiking poles and wearing a Macabi Skirt and Sunday Afternoons Adventure hat, please stop me to chat. If we're in camp, Sunshine can try out my hammock.I was very impressed by your PCT hike.Have a fantastic hike,Longskirt
I had a great time reading about your adventures on the PCT and am excited to read about your experiences on the AT. I spent a week on it over spring break and every single thru-hiker I met was an awesome person -- the trail is a lot more beautiful than I expected (coming from a west-coaster who hadn't hiked on the AT until a year ago).Do you have a blog that you'll be updating or will all of your updates be posted as articles on BPL?
I too am looking forward to following your adventures for another hike!
Travel safe & God Bless
Go Sunshine and B*lls!I'd follow your journal but for the life of me can't seem to figure out how to "join" or "subscribe".
Warren,The RSS feed button is on the bottom left column of their page so you can add it to your favorite Reader.
Kudos to both of you! When I told my son about the long trails of this country, his reaction was "we could go backpacking and camping for four months straight!". I'll be sure to share this story with him.Quick question - how did you work out Sunshine's schoolwork while she's on the trail? I'd like for Mickey and I to do a long trail at some point. If you have any tips on negotiating that, I'd be interested.
Good question Kier. Oregon requires a child to be enrolled in a school or Homeschool program. We contacted our local state education district and enrolled her as a Homeschool student only for the months on the trail. But she returns to public school the rest of the year. We worked with her teachers to see their recomendations as to what she should study on the trail. They even provided work sheets for us to put into our resuply packages. Last year, she started public school ahead of many students even though she was a month late. Contact the office in your area that governs home school requirements and see what you need to do to make this happen. You will never regret it!Thanks for following us,Balls and Sunshine
Good Luck and enjoy the trail!School work is mostly learning about things that are interesting. The AT is certainly one with lots of history available. Bugs are not real bad, but can get annoying, nothing like black fly season in the North East or ADK's. Ticks, and Lyme disease, are a problem with many authorities predicting a difficult year. (My wife picked up Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever on our trip, about the same time frame. We spent a couple days getting her tested and getting an anti-biotic. Odd, but, hey...that *is* a trail.) If you can get a couple days to spend in washington, the Smithsonian has excelent natural history departments. Along with coverment visitations...Well worth the stop even if they don't let you climb the Washington Monument anymore.Yeah, vitamins, and minerals are somthing that is often missed with dehydrated foods. Especialy, the "fresh" vitamins...folic acid, vitamin-C, etc. You sound like you have it well in hand. I would suggest picking up some fresh ruits/veggies as you leave town...pills and mixes are never the same. Use care with water sources, the AT passes through several populated places. Chemical, filters and even boiling does not clean the water in a lot of these.
WOW... I am so excited for you both and cannot wait to read your articles. I live in Atlanta and the weather forcast for Sunday is awesome. Up in the mountains we are already having warm days with cool evenings. I would love to meet meet yall but I will not be up on the trail this weekend. I teach a lightweight backpacking class at the Hike Inn which is on a alternative approach trail on the way up to the top of Springer from Amicalola State Park. If you are hiking up to Springer it is worth the trip to stop in and have some cookies for the trail. Please send me a PM if you want an extra contact at this end of the trail...I will be happy to help out if you need anything.
Sounds good - thanks for the info! Good luck!
You guys should have a ball on this trip! Here are some places you should visit.1. Grayson Highlands - Obviously you two will hike through this area but I'd plan on having Teresa and Butterfly meet you at Grayson Highlands state park for some family time. The area is beautiful and their are wild ponies (actually very tame ponies but they are cute and I'm sure Butterfly would enjoy them). From the park its a short hike into the high country so Teresa and Butterfly could get a nice hike in relatively easily if they wanted to. I think there are showers down in the campground but I'm not sure. 2. Colonial Willaimsburg - A bit expensive but if you (Balls) like American History this is the place to go. Probably about the closest thing to travelling back in time you can experience. 3. Air and Space museum. I'm be in Virginia in early summer/late summer. Maybe I'll see you.

+1 on Number 2 Colonial Williamsburg is blast from the past.When my wife and I were there the Play House was great. During the play the audience is invited to make comments aloud to the cast of the play. It was a "hoot"!And what kids don't like ponies?Party On,Newton
Best of luck to you both! Sunshine working on triple crown before 13?
Nice video on Oregon Field Guidehttp://watch.opb.org/video/2214199608
Way to go! And good luck!In one of your earlier posts you mentioned that Sunshine's BPL backpack suffered a catastrophic failure. Because I bought one during the heyday of BPL, I would be interested in knowing the exact nature of the failure so that I can reinforce the weak part if possible.
Monty, my understanding from talking to Eric was that a seam split on Sunshine's BPL Absaroka pack. The same thing happened to the Gregory pack they bought (I believe in Mammoth) to replace it. I donated them a size small Gossamer Gear Mariposa (which I bought really cheap several years ago on closeout and has been sitting under the bed in my spare bedroom because my grandkids couldn't use it). Sunshine used it for all of Oregon and Washington, and she's still using it on the AT as we speak.

When is the right time to talk to your children about sex? Evidence points to the fact that good sex education tends to delay actual sexual activity.
|Evidence suggests good sex education tends to delay actual sexual activity.
The risks of early sexual activity
Teenage sex involves three serious risks.
- Sexually transmitted disease (STD). Most people don't realise it is easy to catch an STD these days – especially if they are young. In some areas of Britain, 20 per cent of all young adults are carrying chlamydia. The average child of 10 or 12 has no idea at all that this risk exists.
- Unwanted pregnancy. At the ages of 10 to 13, some children may not know what causes pregnancy. Even if they do, it's usual to think pregnancy is something that happens to other people.
- Cancer of the cervix. This is usually due to the human papilloma virus (HPV) which is passed on during sex. Often, the original infection occurs when a girl is still in her teens.
Does sex education promote promiscuity?
Some people believe that talking to young people about sex encourages early sexual activity, but in fact good sex education is vital so young people can make informed choices.
In Britain most teenage pregnancies occur in young people who have had a relatively poor education – including sex education. All west European countries have lower teen conception rates than the UK, probably because they have far better sex education than Britain does.
In Holland young people are carefully warned about both the attractions and dangers of sex. As a result, the rate of teen births is one sixth what it is in Britain.
The only western country that has a worse teenage pregnancy rate than Britain's is the USA – where education about sex is patchy or non-existent and may simply consist of promises of chastity.
We saw for ourselves the effect of sex education during research for one of our books.
We interviewed a group of children in the West Country aged 12 to 13 who were all mums, and a group of well-educated children in Hertfordshire whose average age was 14.
- The West Country group had had little or no sex education. Most of them did not even know about periods or how babies were made – until they became pregnant.
- The Hertfordshire group had had good sex education, both at school and home. They knew far more theory about sex, but none of them had tried it.
When should I start telling my children about sex?
It is clear that children need to know about sex – both anatomically and emotionally – and that they need accurate information before puberty.
Children are going to be vulnerable from about the age of 12, and sometimes a good deal earlier – so in a sense, it's never too early to start.
Loads of parents feel anxious about having these kinds of discussions, but think about it as being a long, ongoing process in which you answer questions as they arise rather than go in for one 'big' serious talk.
If you don't create an environment where sex is discussed naturally, you will find it enormously difficult to talk to your kids about it later on. And teenagers find it seriously embarrassing to talk to their parents if the subject was taboo when they were younger.
In a 2009 survey, the Family Planning Association (fpa) found that nearly all parents answered 'No' to the question: 'Is telling teenagers not to have sex enough to stop teenage pregnancy?'
Indeed, the parents said that in order to bring down the teen pregnancy figures, the Government should give under-18s better sex and relationships education.
But even if attitudes have changed for the better, it seems likely that what parents believe they should do when it comes to talking about sex with their children is not the same as what they actually do.
How do I broach the subject?
Our experience over the years suggests that parents are happier to do the talking if they feel prepared and know what words to say.
One way of doing this is to buy the parents' pack from the fpa. This costs £7.50 and you can get it by emailing email@example.com or by visiting the fpa website.
Tips for parents
- Talk about your own experiences. If you were shy about kissing or whether to put an arm round a girl, tell this to your kids. Older children love to hear stories about your growing pains. And it helps them to realise that you understand what it's like to be fascinated by sex, but nervous at the same time.
- Talk about feelings as well as anatomy. When young people get into trouble with sex, they often say to health professionals: 'No one told us how much we were going to want to do it.' Make sure your kids know that there's a strong urge to have sex because it's very nice, but also that it's worth saving for a special, loving relationship.
- When your child asks difficult questions, ask them some questions back before you launch into an explanation. This will give you a bit of time and help you to know how much knowledge they have already.
- Try to create a climate at home where your children can ask about sex. So, for example, if a storyline about sex emerges in a TV programme and they want to know about it, they'll feel they can ask you.
- Don't set aside a special day or time to talk about sex. Most kids find this quite alarming. Instead, be prepared to answer questions as and when they happen.
- It helps to have the right words to talk about sex. Getting hold of some good books on sex or the parents' pack mentioned above can help. If you and your children are all using the same words for body parts and activities, you'll feel much less embarrassed.
- If your child asks a question about sex in a public place like the supermarket, delay answering but promise that you'll talk about it as soon as you get home. And make sure you do!

Additional product details
Hubbard and O'Brien provide extensive analysis of the financial events of the past few years. These events are sufficiently important to be incorporated into the body of the text rather than just added as boxed-off features. In particular, they stress the lesson policymakers recently learned the hard way: What happens in the ever-expanding part of the financial system that does not involve commercial banks is of vital importance to the entire economy.
This exciting text presents students with the underlying economic explanations of why the financial system is organized as it is and how the financial system is connected to the broader economy. Due to the overwhelming success of their principles of economics textbook, Hubbard and O'Brien have employed a similar approach in this textbook: They provide students with a framework that allows them to apply the theory that they learn in the classroom to the practice of the real world.

I decided to start this series because of one solid and absolute fact. We all will get old. We all will forget things, and we all will wish we could see the past with more clarity. With a lifetime of memories competing for space in our heads it is only natural that many of the best will fade. In comes photography. A tool with a perfect memory. One that if we decide can document our existence just as it was. Someday when our legs have failed us and our minds are full of haze we will still be able to look back at our families faces and relive that moment. For this reason I will never be able to correctly describe the power of these images. It may be because I don't fully understand how profound they will be to me someday. I invite all my friends to also start a visual library of the things they love in this world. I will gladly post anything someone wants to share to my site and hopefully between everyone we can put together one incredible ever growing library. Aside from the value these projects will have to us they are also another opportunity for us to push ourselves to get better at what we do.

It's also pretty great to be able to handhold a camera again without rolling shutter turning the frame to mush.

Lepechinia hastata
Heat & drought tolerant, evergreen & amazingly hardy (to 0° F), this unusual & easy to grow Salvia relative puts on an absolutely stunning display from August thru October, just when your garden may be sliding into the blahs. Big 1' upright & open spikes of voluptuous deep magenta-rose create a cloud of bloom 3' across above extra handsome, mint scented, silvery, ground-covering foliage. A tasty hummingbird favorite! Happy in poor soil as long as there's drainage. Cut back in Winter. Native to Hawaii, its tropical vibe will light up any garden but otherwise, this is one tough plant. To 4' high. It prefers full sun but can take a bit of shade.

We at Screen Junkies have just received word that Ben Affleck will be the next Batman. We know in our heart of hearts that the denizens of the Internet will take this news with grace and refrain from any sudden reactions pending more information and digestion.
HOWEVER, should anyone be mildly upset by this news, perhaps they can take solace in knowing that Batman could have been played by Josh Brolin, who pretty much acts like Batman in his day-to-day life, but would have been a pretty gruff Bruce Wayne.
Brolin told the Huffington Post that talks didn't get very far, as everyone agreed that he makes a far better Robin and contracted him for that role on the spot, not by having him sign a contract, but rather by tying a black mask around his face and slapping a haphazard "R" on his shirt and yelling, "Ha! Now you're Robin."

Is multi-tasking an over-rated virtue?
Multi-tasking: The ability to successfully do more than one thing at a time. Interestingly enough, a quick Internet search for its definition reveals that the term is directly linked to computing. Check this out, dictionnaire.reverso.net/anglais-cobuild/multi-tasking where:
Multi-tasking is a situation in which a computer or person does more than one thing at the same time.
This past week, we had an official holiday on Tuesday.
I took this opportunity to do a bit of spring-cleaning, an exercise that I found to be physically as well as psychically liberating. Indeed, Zen moments can be found while clearing out a closet, going through the stack of 'essential' papers whose importance seem to wane over time, washing the dishes and tossing left-overs from the refrigerator.
However, at one point in this therapeutic process mindfulness returned and I caught myself trying to drink the smoothie that I'd made several minutes earlier, sorting out a drawer that held a kaleidoscope of odds and ends – paper clips, shirt buttons, business calling cards, pens, pencils, spools of thread and ah, my red lipstick that I thought I'd lost AND surfing the internet for some information. Oh, one more thing: the anti-aging facial mask that should have been washed off after 15 minutes had now been on for so long that my face had tightened to such an extent, I felt like a mummified statue!
In this instant of my own neurosis, I was bent over in laughter. How many things did I truly think I could manage to do successfully with my energy scattered all over the place like this?!
For at least a decade, one's ability to do several things at once, under the term 'multi-tasking' has been a staple on job advertisements, especially for those in administrative and managerial type occupations.
I'd imagine that for yogis and yoginis especially, this unique art must be quite conflicting to the teachings of yoga that invite us to breathe in and center ourselves and breathe out everything that keeps us from focusing so that we can bring ourselves into the present moment; with emphasis on the singularity of now. I wonder whether it is this 'ability' that we pride ourselves in – multi-tasking – that makes the art of meditation so challenging for many of us?
It is the nature of the mind to wander – this is clear. However in our modern world, we've seduced ourselves into believing that efficiency is measured by one's ability to engage the mind, body and spirit into a virtually schizoid state in a desperate attempt to be efficient multi-taskers!
In the long run, multi-tasking can and does put the human being under a tremendous amount of unnecessary stress, without possibly even realizing it.
Here are a few classic examples that I've witnessed in myself this week: on three different occasions with kitchen mittens on all prepared to remove a casserole from the oven, I've found myself standing in front of the refrigerator wandering "what did I come here for?"
Leaving my office to walk to someone else's and halfway down the corridor, having no recollection of where I'm headed. When I re-traced my steps recollection returned, otherwise I may have begun to seriously question my sanity. Yesterday's latest episode – reaching for the telephone to call someone and then as my hand connected with the receiver, recognizing that somewhere in that mili-second of time, my brain had disconnected and forgotten who I'd intended to call.
Concerned that I may be losing it or having an early onset of Alzheimer's, I timidly shared with a colleague my concern at the fact that lately, I seem to be re-naming folk: Cynthia to Christine, Marie Clare to Marie Louse, David Bowden to Richard Dowden are just a few examples. In turn, he re-counted and shared with me his typical day:
He's drafting e-mail and the phone rings. In the midst of this, his assistant comes in with an important document for him to sign. Responsibly he must read what he affixes his signature to so he begins that process. Suddenly, someone sticks his/her head into his door asking, "you have a few minutes?" Priding himself on being a manager with an open door policy, "sure" he responds. Ten minutes later, he's left with a pile of unfinished business – he needs to return the call of the person he had to cut off in order to sign the document for which he's only scanned the information and can barely remember it, in fact, he's confused it with the e-mail he was drafting and whoever stuck their head in the door has gone away with clarity while he's left in a muddle of confusion, nowhere further in fact perhaps having even fallen behind than he was 20 minutes prior.
Multi-tasking is beginning to look pretty over-rated to me. I'm certain that the growing appeal of yoga for many of us is the fact that it potentially serves as the one moment in our day where we're not literally racing from pillar to post. Here we are, on the mat, combining movement with breath, one asana or yoga posture, at a time. For those who are able to let go and fully experience the gift of our temporary periods of death in Savasana or corpse pose, we grant ourselves permission to pause so that we're able to re-collect our entire selves and re-emerge into the frenetic world indeed feeling more 'together' than perhaps at the start of our practice.
Conclusion: In those moments where multi-tasking becomes consuming and over-whelming, roll out our mats – visually or literally – and lay Savasana. Give ourselves the permission to slow ourselves down so that we're able to bring attention and focus to our activities. Truly, very little in our lives is so pressing that we cannot allow ourselves a few moments of slow, deep, energizing, re-vitalizing breaths. After all, we are living human beings and not non-living computers!
I'm off to make my smoothie before the phone starts ringing.

Yes, I like your thinking Nadine.
I believe that our attention (our enegy, our LOVE) is like a flashlight – you can spread the light diffusely around and it's weak, or you can tighten the beam into a coherent, concentrated, focused light. When you do it the second way, you get much more done, effortlessly, and with great joy. This is what is known as "skill in action" (amongst other things). It's also a result of being 'clear' in yourself (free of blockages), and having a coherence between head, heart, and gut (our 3 main centers of awareness).
I'm useless at multi tasking though – so maybe I'm just heavily biased and trying to justify my own inadequacy!!
Love, Ben
Count your blessings — about being 'useless!' I've found that I'm far more 'efficient' when I am fully present in the moment of doing one thing FULLY at a time. Thanks for your comment on FB ej page about this piece because I'm sure that it contributed to it gaining so much readership and feedback. Blessed Love, Nadine!
Totally over-rated Nadine. Yes, indeed I remember when this term came into being. Resumes/Cv's, job requirements "must be able to multi-task!". Corporate jargon meaning "you gotta do more to earn the same pay cheque." Had a lot of us fooled!!!
Corporations put a label on it because when were we never multi-tasking? And oh boy, did we ever pride ourselves (ego, ego, ego) on being able to do a 100 things at a time and giving 200 per cent to each task. Multi-tasking is multi-tiring. Right now I am writing this email and digesting lunch how is that for multi tasking!!! And after this I might just do some multi-resting. Ahh Savasana…to lie there zero thinking of multi-nothing.
While on retreat in India, Shiva Rae asked us what we needed to attend to, and strenghten. I thought about and the thought popped into my mind that I want to full immerse myself in every task, no matter how mundane. My years of multitasking have left me weary and diffuse. I am so much more present and peaceful, the next task can wait. Tthanks for the great post!
as the definition suggests, let's leave that to the computers.
LIKE!!! Oh man, the standing in front of the fridge thing. EVERY FREAKING DAY LOL!
[…] live in a busy world. Multitasking is a […]
Hilary, I loved this: the country is exhausted and inefficient. Awesome! The danger of this lethal combination I find is that most people are running on automatic pilot. No one seems able to think beyond their nose. What I've found particularly interesting about the comments this piece has generated, especially on FB, is that women especially feel validated and are speaking up and out! But as Suzette shares above, much of this multi-tasking insanity is driven by EGO. We need to return to our source to understand what is behind our incessant need to DO and BE everything. Bless, Nadine!

A loaded boxcar broke free from the main rail line in Dayton late Tuesday and made a momentous, high-speed trek through the dark of night before it was stopped near Prescott, officials said.
No one was hurt and no major damage was reported in the bizarre incident. Other specifics were also -- including what exactly happened and how -- were not clear this morning.
Even the distance the train car traveled from Columbia County into Walla Walla County was not clear since the track runs separate from the roads, said Walla Walla County Sheriff's Capt. Bill White.
Columbia County dispatch received a call around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday from a citizen who reported a westbound boxcar on the loose. By the time authorities caught up with it, the boxcar had already reportedly crossed the county line into Waitsburg.
Walla Walla County sheriff's officials were called for assistance at 11:47 p.m., White said. But with speeds estimated as high as 55 mph, there was little to be done to stop it. Officials used the roar of the train to guide them as they worked to clear the intersections and make way for its passage.
"They could hear it rumbling down the tracks so they could get ahead of it," White said.
The timing of the incident was fortuitous given the relatively light traffic at that time of night, he said. Many of the railway crossings as the train rolled through Dayton, Waitsburg and Prescott have no lights, bells or other warning system.
Most amazing, officials marveled this morning, was that the boxcar crossed Highway 124. That crossing took place just west of the intersection with Bolles Road.
Once behind Prescott High School, the vehicle slowed down and begin to roll east. A firefighter with Walla Walla County Fire District 7 hopped the boxcar and applied the brake to bring the rig to a halt.
The Times of Waitsburg reported that a representative from Blue Mountain Railroad Company was expected in Dayton this morning. An attempt to reach that company was not successful this morning.

Accessories : Sirui and Argraph Debut "World's First Ultra Strong" Carbon Fiber Gimbal HeadAugust 21, 2012
The Sirui PH-20 is engineered to make a heavy camera and lens system fast handling and weightless. With the lens attached to the PH-20 gimbal head, users can "smoothly and precisely" track fast-moving subjects and preset compositions.
From its lightweight but rugged carbon fiber arm to its Arca-compatible quick-release system, calibrated quick-release platform and included quick-release plate, the Sirui PH-20 was designed with the photographer in mind. By using cross-patterned, multilayer carbon fiber in the arm and forged aircraft aluminum for the L bracket, the PH-20 is built to hold up to 44 pounds yet is lightweight at 2.4 pounds. And the carbon fiber is said to provide reduced vibrations and better tolerance to temperature changes.
With the camera and lens balanced on the gimbal head, there's no need to lock any controls, reports Argraph. Users can smoothly move the camera in any direction (horizontally 360° and tilt +150° to -60°) with the slightest amount of force. For added convenience, the Sirui PH-20 can be converted from an L-bracket unit into a simpler side-mount system with the included quick-release platform and tools.
As with all Sirui professional photographic products, the Sirui PH-20 gimbal head comes with Sirui's six-year warranty. argraph.com

Citation: Vander Meer, R.K., Porter, S.D., Oi, D.H., Valles, S.M., Pereira, R.M. 2005. Area-wide Suppression of Invasive Fire Ant Populations. Area Wide Control of Insect Pests Integrating the Sterile Insect. Abstract. p. 78-79 Technical Abstract: The fire ants, Solenopsis invicta and Solenopsis richteri, were inadvertently introduced into the United States in the early 1900s and currently inhabit over 150 million hectares in Puerto Rico and twelve southern states from Texas to Virginia. Imported fire ants have also become established in isolated sites in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Maryland. They have also widened their invasive character by accidental importation and establishment in Australia and Taiwan. Fire ant colonies (single queen) can contain up to 250,000 workers and reach infestation rates of over 130 mounds per hectare. More recently, multiple-queen colonies have proliferated in the southern states with even greater population densities. The fire ant's large numbers, resource requirements, aggressive behavior, and potent sting have resulted in many negative interactions with man and the ecosystem. Many ground inhabiting arthropods and other small animals are destroyed, yields of several agricultural crops are reduced, and ca. 1% of the population is at risk from hypersensitivity to fire ant venom. The population densities in the U.S. are 5-10 times higher than in South America, most likely due to their escape from natural enemies. Chemical Control. Several commercial insecticide baits have been developed for fire ant control; however, they are costly, many are not registered for large acreage, and most have adverse environmental impact when used in environmentally sensitive locations. Biological Control. At least 22 species of parasitic Pseudacteon flies have been found attacking fire ants in South America. These flies have been shown to stop fire ant foraging and shift the local competitive balance to other ant species, thus limiting resources to the fire ant. There are also two Protozoan pathogens, Thelohania solenopsae, and Vairimorpha invictae that naturally infect S. invicta in South America. Both have been shown to cause reductions of field populations, and T. solenopsae increases the susceptibility of fire ants to bait insecticide treatments. Field host range studies conducted in Argentina indicated that both T. solenopsae and V. invictae were specific to Solenopsis ants. A combination of chemical and biologically-based control could form the basis of an integrated management system to suppress fire ant populations over large areas, while possibly requiring less chemical control. An Areawide Suppression of Fire Ant Populations in Pastures Project proposal was funded by USDA/ARS Headquarters to demonstrate control of fire ant populations over large areas using integrated management methods. The objectives of this project are to: (1) maintain low fire ant populations using a combination of self-sustaining fire ant biological control agents (the phorid fly, P. tricuspis, and the pathogen, T. solenopsae) and bait toxicants, (2) assess the economic impact associated with fire ants and the benefits of areawide fire ant control, (3) assess the environmental impact of fire ants and the effects of their control on native ant fauna, (4) develop educational materials for the public on fire ants and their control, and (5) a research component that focuses on new methodologies that can enhance bait and/or biocontrol effectiveness. The Project team includes USDA-ARS & APHIS personnel and state cooperators from Texas A&M University, Oklahoma State University, Clemson University, South Carolina, and the University of Florida. Control and treatment demonstration sites (120Ha + periphery) were set up in each of five states (Florida, Oklahoma, Texas, South Carolina, and Mississippi). The control site had bait applications, but no biocontrol around the periphery. The treatment site had bait applications plus biocontrol agents (phorid flies and T. solenopsae) were applied to the periphery around the bait treated areas, to prevent, limit, or slow reinfestation of the chemically treated area. Insecticide applications consisted of a combination of hydramethylnon and methoprene baits, chosen because they were registered for use in pastures and have little impact non-target fauna. After 3.5 years phorid fly parasites have been successfully established at the demonstration sites. The disease T. solenopsae is established in all sites except Mississippi, where the disease has been recently detected. Fire ant populations have been reduced by 85-99% in the treatment demonstration sites. An agricultural economist has determined the overall economic loss due to fire ants (control & damage) to be over a billion US dollars in Texas alone. Environmental assessment has demonstrated that bait toxicants do affect non-target ant species that would otherwise play a role in decreasing fire ant reinfestation rates. Educational outreach activities have resulted in informative brochures, the establishment of a program website (http://www.ars.usda.gov/fireant/), videos, and general information on fire ants. The research component has responded with additional biocontrol organisms, better detection methods, and more specific baits.

ATP Zagreb Sunday results
353,450 ATP International Series Tournament
Zagreb, Croatia
January 29-February 4, 2007
Carpet (Taraflex) / Indoor
Singles Final
[2]M Baghdatis (CYP) d [1]I Ljubicic (CRO) 76(4) 46 64
Doubles Final
M Kohlmann (GER) & A Waske (GER) d [4] F Cermak (CZE) & J Levinsky (CZE) 76(5) 46 10-5
Marcos Baghdatis waited till match point to claim his only break of serve against defending champion Ivan Ljubicic to win the PBZ Zagreb Indoors final with a 7-6(4), 4-6, 6-4 victory in 2 hrs., 30 mins.
Baghdatis had failed to convert five earlier break point opportunities against the Croatian, who fired 11 aces and won 80 per cent of points on his first serve.
Baghdatis improved to 3-0 lifetime against Ljubicic, whom he defeated on hard court at the Australian Open in 2005 and 2006.
Baghdatis was broken just once himself in the final and once in the semifinals during his 6-4, 6-3 win over Austrian Alexander Peya.
The Cypriot, who out-aced Ljubicic with 16, secured his second career ATP title, following his victory on hard court in Beijing last year.
He was playing his fourth career final and improved to 2-2 in title matches.
Baghdatis dropped outside the Top 20 in the ATP Rankings last Monday for the first time since reaching the Australian Open final in 2006. His Zagreb victory will likely see him return to the Top 20 on Monday.
He is now 10-3 on the season, including quarterfinal runs in Doha and Sydney.
Ljubicic, who had survived three consecutive three-set matches to reach the final, slipped to 7-10 in career finals. He began the season by winning the Doha title (d. Murray).
The Croatian served 90 aces for the match and jumped to first from fourth in the list of most aces served this season in the RICOH ATP MatchFacts with 177.
Baghdatis: "It was great to come back after the disappointment of Australia and win a tournament. I am very, very happy.
"I won the crucial points. I played a great tie-break and a great game at 5-4 in the third. Ivan was a bit tight and didn't serve so good in that game.
"I'll just try to keep the same mentality. Stay happy and keep working hard and everything should go well. I just have to play my game and enjoy it."
Ljubicic: "It was my fourth long match in a row and I was a little tired in the end. I had my chances in the fourth set and it's always difficult to come from a set down against such a player.
"I am satisfied. I struggled all week long, so to reach the final without playing great tennis is nice. I had a lot of pressure on my shoulders. But I am a little sad because I think I had chances today.
"He kept the pressure on my serve. In the last game he was too good. One fantastic drop shot, then the lob to go to match point, then a fantastic passing shot to finish the match. I didn't think I did anything wrong.
About his Davis Cup preparation: "I have 11 hours of tennis so I am pretty satisfied physically with how I feel. Now I just need to rest and try to recover and get ready for the tie."
German duo Michael Kohlmann and Alexander Waske defeated Czech team Frantisek Cermak and Jaroslav Levinsky 7-6(5), 4-6, 10-5 (Match TB) at the PBZ Zagreb Indoors to claim their second title as a team. Kohlmann won his fifth ATP doubles title and Waske his third.
Kohlmann and Waske are set to play Davis Cup next week but after that they will go their own way, with Kohlmann committed to Leos Friedl and Waske paired with Andrei Pavel.
Kohlmann and Waske were playing their first event together this year. They had a record of 18-8 last year, winning the title in Houston in April (d. Knowle-Melzer).
Kohlmann: "We had three tough matches in first three rounds and we expected a tough final too. We lost to them in the second round of New Haven and we wanted to avenge that loss. It's a great preparation for Davis Cup (against Croatia). We won four close matches and did well in the close moments."
Waske: "We had a tough draw. We played four very good teams. We made it to the final without losing a set on a fast surface. I think us serving well was the key.
"It's not decided who will play the doubles at Davis Cup - Tommy Haas is in the team. But it makes it easier for the team captain to pick the both of us and it gives us confidence to play."
