Historic further education strike in England
On 24 February, lecturers' union UCU and public sector union Unison took joint strike action across England in the further education sector for the first time. The unions' pay claim, which amounts to just £1 an hour extra for further education workers, had been rejected by the employers. 74% voted to strike. Below are reports from some of the picket lines:
Leeds City College
Picket lines were literally drawn on the pavement outside the college entrances at two sites and the mood was strong among the striking UCU and Unison members who assembled from 7am. The strike saw good support for those taking action and from members of the public and students, including Socialist Students members and local council shop stewards.
Many drivers beeped their horns in support. We had conversations with students who had never experienced a picket line and explained why it was necessary to take action. Some joined us when we said that this was not just about pay but the quality and privatisation of their education.
Manny Dominguez and Iain Dalton, Leeds Socialist Party
Waltham Forest College, east London
In Walthamstow one striking worker said she had no option but to strike for better pay. She is struggling to help her son through university and couldn't even afford to help him pay the rent.
He'd been forced to couch surf at university this year. College workers have suffered under a pay freeze for six years.
Despite teaching responsibilities alongside many other roles the college has classified her job to guarantee her pay remains low. Five of the 12 pickets bought copies of the Socialist and were pleased the paper carried an article on their strike.
Ian Pattison, Waltham Forest Socialist Party
Warrington College
A small, but determined, band of pickets from UCU and Unison were outside the college gate when I visited. Some members had gone into work due to fear of the consequences of stepping out of line but some workers turned back when they saw the pickets. There is a feeling that the college management is simply riding roughshod over the workforce.
Andy Ford, Warrington Trades Council
Southampton City College
"This dispute cannot be allowed to end in one day of protest, we need to keep up the pressure by escalating action. The government will not back down when faced with a one day strike!"
These were the words of a striking UCU member in Southampton. With continued reductions in funding in the last few years, student numbers have been plummeting along with the loss of courses. These include a vital trade union education department.
Pickets arrived from 8am and were still outside the college at midday. Spirits were high and support was given by staff and students.

Michael Owen seemed happy to get all 3 points on Sunday, and said the Newcastle dressing room was a happy one after the game against Portsmouth, with Newcastle players punching the air.
Michael Owen – happy dressing room after game
Michael told nufcTV today:
"Points wise the win at Portsmouth lifted us a few places." "
There are a few teams on 18 points and our win took us to 19 and above them so psychologically that was nice."
"Now we are going into the Christmas period and we have some tough games to play."
"Tottenham at home is a big game for us. If we can get three points again then it will be a nice way to celebrate Christmas."
Owen took his goals for the season up to 9 in just 15 appearances, and of course he got the all important first goal from a great pass from Argentine winger Jonas Gutierrez, who had intercepted a wayward Portsmouth pass in midfield.
Michael now has 29 goals in 62 appearances while he's been at Newcastle, which is even more impressive since he's been in and out the side with injuries. Just think what he could do with a full season at the club, with minimal injuries.
Michael added:
"It was a happy dressing room at the end.""
It's always great to go in after winning at a tough place and everyone has a smile on their face and is punching the air."
"It brings everyone together."
Another win against Tottenham next Sunday, will also have the Newcastle fans very happy, because a winning streak over Christmas is exactly what we need to take us into the January transfer window.
Comments welcome.

Sometimes he frustrates me when he is just gets bullied out of the match completely i.e. against Arsenal this season.
But his record speaks for itself and is the bes goalscorer around and we need to keep hold of him. Rumours are saying his basic wage is cut to 80k or so and the rest is made up of add-ons which could exceed his current contract. Doesnt seem a bad deal for him to be honest.
Although i cant see Everton or Spurs being able to pay the 105k a week. The only team that could that would take him would be Man City.
Has anyone seen the quotes attributed to Kinnear admitting that he was after Riise, but that Riise changed his mind about leaving Roma. Kinnear went on to mention that has happy to lose players if he got like for like or better, and that if we had got Riise that we could "have done something" with Jose Enrique.
Hardly confidence building stuff for Jose is it? Cant believe he would come out and admit that, unless fo course he has another LB all tied up before the window opens and is set to sell the young Spanish lad!
£80K is pretty much out of reach for Everton who he seems heavily linked with, but it's only the base salary what we're offering him!
What I would have put in his contract is –
3 year deal
£80k base salary
+ £20k for a goal
+£15k for being fit for the game.
That means if he started a game and scored a goal, he would get £115k for that one game. It's only £10k over what we're paying him now but it is an improvement, and no stupid loopholes or clauses where he can leave if he does this or that or anything dodgy please. We need to give him the contract of his career, his goals are vital for us.
I think it all depends on if Man city can get the 50 million pound stars they want. I think the only teams he would go to are the top four or Man city, and the top four dont want him.
I think its a mistake making him captian because that confirms to himself that he is better the the rest of the team.
Then again RobbyBobson, he's our most consistent goalscorer, and needs to feel valued. Butt isn't good enough for captain and I don't believe keepers are effective in the role either. Nobody else really qualifies for it apart from maybe Beye, but I think the captaincy should be in the spine of a team (striker, centre mid, centre back).
He needs to feel loved here, otherwise, if we're not that fussed, why would he even bother staying?
andynufc, that sounds along the same lines i was thinking too. 80k base rate, then another 10 k if he plays puts him on 90 base, then 20 k per goal. if he gets to goals in a game he is on 130k, 1 goal gives him 110k a week. plus a decent re-signing fee plus i think we should give him a free release if relegated clause. in that way, owen has nothing to loose. its a win win for him. all we go and keep MO. that way, we get what we want and ashley gets what he wants in reducing the wage bill by getting shot of two players that simply never ever play anyway. i have fingers crossed but i am not sure.
Mind you, we had this every single time with shearer if you cast your minds back. this is no differrent, i am hoping for the best!!
There is no doubt whatsoever that Shearer will become Newcastle United manager – some day. The one thing that remains to be seen is how he is going to come about it. Will he stroll in with no experience, will Blackburn take him on, will he go lower league and build his experience up, or does he even want to manage anywhere else before Newcastle? He's had 2 great opportunities now from very experienced managers to come and learn the trade by their side and has turned them down.
I'd like to see how he does if he went to Blackburn.
Craig, thinking about it again, I reckon Owen wants something along the lines of £150k a week because of our position (even though he doesnt deserve it). The relegation release idea is great btw.
I say we go anything up to £150k, but not raise the base salary past £100k, then after that, Ashley should say, right name your price, and if he's taking the mick then he isn't worth it.
After all, Ashley wants a wage structure set up properly, Arsenal model and all that.
yeah andy, we jsut could not go as high as 150k – where did you get that figure from btw? i think owen is awesome nad our best by a mile, along with given , he is our inspiration and our whole team lifts when he plays. 150 base would be mental though i agree. we must have a structure, even ronaldo, the best payer in the world gets 125 k a week and he is younger. a high base rate with additions is the answer, without a doubt. no-one else will give him as much as 100k a week and also the captains armband i am sure. we will have to wait and see, i hope he stays.
Guys divn't blow your foot off! We need this guy,big time!
Yea ok we have put up with the pain (money /injury) now we are getting the gain.
Good to see him make the vital break through at a difficult place to win let alone 0-3 win (way beyond my expectations.)
The scumbag landing strip for flies media of course are up to their usual anal pontificational indulgence.
Michael Owen is a very intelligent bloke who always plays his cards close to his chest as we have seen in the past.He isn't going to make any promises to Newcastle till he sees who is offering what.He has never been given much credit for showing any loyalty and is always accused of chasing the money.He doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve like some players do, but I think he has formed a bond with the club and fans on Tyneside and wouldn't be surprised if he signed on for another three years

Naushad Ali of Woodinville, Washington invented the Drain Strain. The sink drain stopper is unique in that it has a built-in basket under the stopper that catches hair, contact lenses, jewelry, and whatever else you don't want to go down the drain. The baskets are meant to be replaced and they are recyclable. The Drain Strain is promoted as an easy-to-use, preventive alternative to calling plumbers and using chemicals to unclog drains.
[Drain Strain – No-Clog Sink Stopper at Amazon]
Ali, who got his MBA from Berkeley btw, pitched his product on Shark Tank and got a deal with Robert Herjavec ($110k for 10 percent). He's now selling the Drain Strain to hotels and plans to have the product on the shelves of Home Depot and Lowe's by 2016. Until then, you can buy them on the Drain Strain website. The traditional Chrome stopper goes for $15.

Many chances to see candidates for state Assembly and Senate, Albany County DA
A lot of Capital Region politicians are currently missing their hats because they've thrown them in to some ring or the other. That's what happens when a lot of incumbents decide not to run. The result: some very long slates for offices.
Something that might help you narrow the field: seeing the candidate for a race in person in one place. There are a bunch of chances this week (listed post jump). Bring a scorecard.
Tuesday: state Senate 44th (eastern Albany County, Troy, Rensselaer)
Incumbent Democrat Neil Breslin will debate primary challenger Shawn Morse at Sage College in Troy at 7 pm.
Wednesday: Albany County Democratic DA candidates, Democratic and Independence primary candidates in the 110th Assembly District (Colonie, Niskayuna, eastern city of Schenectady)
A double-office lineup organized by the League of Women Voters at the Wolf Road Holiday Inn at 7 pm.
+ Incumbent Albany County DA David Soares will meet Democratic primary challenger Lee Kindlon. (That should be... interesting.)
+ In the running for the 110th: Phil Steck, Joe Landry, Tim Nichols, Kevin Frazier (Democrats); Jennifer Whalen (Republican).
Wednesday: Democratic candidates for Assembly 108th (eastern city of Albany, Rensselaer, North Greenbush, southern city of Troy, Watervliet, Green Island, Cohoes), Assembly 109th (western city of Albany, Bethlehem, New Scotland, Guilderland), and Albany County District Attorney
At the main branch of the Albany Public Library, at 6:30 pm. Organized by the Council of Albany (NY) Neighborhood Associations.
+ The candidates for the 108th: Carolyn McLaughlin (Albany Common Council president) and John McDonald (Cohoes mayor).
+ David Soares says he won't be at this event because of the co-scheduling with the LWV event. [TU Local Politics]
Thursday: Assembly District 109 and Senate District 44
At Albany Law School's 1982 Building, 7 pm, organized by the League of Women Voters.
+ In the running for the 109th Assembly District: Frank Commisso Jr, Jim Coye, Patricia Fahy, Christopher Higgins, William McCarthy Jr, Margarita Perez (Democrats); Joseph Sullivan (Republican); Ted Danz (Independence).
+ And for state Senate 44th: Neil Breslin and Shawn Morse.
Thursday: Democratic candidates for Assembly 108th
At Albany Housing Authority, 200 S. Pearl Street, at 6 pm, organized by the Albany NAACP. [via TU Local Politics]
Again, for the 108th: Carolyn McLaughlin and John McDonald.
Thursday: Senate District 43rd (parts of Saratoga, Washington, Rensselaer, and Columbia counties)
Incumbent Republican Roy McDonald and Conservative Edward Gilbert will be at Saratoga's Maple Ave Middle School for a candidate forum organized by the League of Women Voters of Saratoga County. Kathleen Marchione -- challenging McDonald for the Republican line -- has apparently declined to attend.
Monday (September 10): Democratic candidates for Assembly 109th
At the former Washington Ave YMCA in Albany, at 6 pm, organized by the Albany NAACP. [via TU Local Politics]
Again, Democrats in the running for the 109th: Frank Commisso Jr, Jim Coye, Patricia Fahy, Christopher Higgins, William McCarthy Jr, Margarita Perez.
Earlier on AOA: New legislative lines for the Capital Region
I am so confused. We moved to another town in a different county this year, and I thought I had figured out who all our representatives are. But then we receive mail from the incumbents and their challengers in our old district too. And there's the whole redistricting thing. I have a feeling I won't be able to figure it all out until I go to vote. :(
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

Wow. Months pass like weeks now! In any case, I am keeping myself busy with several projects, along side recording music.
Slowly patching up and recording new help videos. Now with Windows7 being so popular, it only seemed befitting to redo and make some new video help for this new operating system.
Spring is here and summer is not far away. Again, another year and it's time for RV maintenance. We had a fairly uneventful winter and NASAV is in pretty good shape. Boy! A ton of leaves this year!
People keep asking me about the toolbar. Well, I do have plans to add new content to the toolbar. I have been watching its usage and analyzing the statistics to decide what content users would like the most. I also found a really good video service that works well all around the globe. However, it is not free. Still, I try to include quality content, not just the usual junk that can be found everywhere on the Internet. I hope you appreciate that.
I've been enjoying the Iron browser. Iron is slimmed down and runs well on legacy hardware with Windows7, but there are a few features it comes up short on. So, I still find myself wanting to use Flock for larger browsing affairs. But, Iron will stay on my hard drive.
Am shopping for a banjo, electric guitar and amplifier. I want to play publicly this summer. Also, I hope I win my Ebay bid on the 8-ch I/O card for my AW4416 recording console. Parts are getting harder to find as time creeps along. I really want to have 16-ch of balanced 1/4-inch inputs.
Meanwhile, my 01X digital mixer is right at home with both LogicPro9 and Tracktion3 on MacOS.
Will update again once I get some of these irons off of the back burner. I LQQK forward to a hot summer!

 Association of Internet Researchers en-US AoIR Selected Papers of Internet Research 2162-3317 Ambivalence in the (Private) Public Sphere: How Global Digital Activists Navigate Risk https://spir.aoir.org/index.php/spir/article/view/1258 This study examines the accounts of a global network of digital activists to understand how they view their relationships with social media platforms and negotiate risk in digital environments. Through semi-structured interviews with a geographically diverse group of activists, all of whom write for the citizen media platform Global Voices, the paper considers how the activists negotiate an ambiguous and shifting landscape of online threats in the conduct of their work. It uncovers a deep vein of ambivalence around digital practices, particularly with regard to the role of social media companies. It also aims to contribute a better comparative understanding of risk across a number of digital environments: surveillance and censorship take different forms and are experienced in different ways depending on the activists' geography. I find while activists are innovatively using these platforms to create new spaces for speech and dissent, they are also spaces of ambiguity and ambivalence, and may be as dangerous as they are generative. I explore the forms of user agency taken up by activists as they negotiate networked privacy in the (private) public sphere. Sarah Myers West Copyright (c) 2017 Selected Papers of Internet Research 2017-05-16 2017-05-16 6 Playing the algorithm: Mobile gamers' everyday (in)visibility strategies https://spir.aoir.org/index.php/spir/article/view/1306 Internet users are increasingly aware that they generate data traces and that they are acting in spaces in which algorithms operate. Games on mobile phones or tablets, similar to many other mobile apps, enable the collection and analysis of user data. These analyses are performed by simple or complex algorithms. In this paper, we examine the everyday practices of casual gamers in their interaction with mobile games as algorithmic spaces. We are particularly interested in how casual gamer awareness of these practices alongside broader privacy concerns are navigated. Through the use of qualitative interviews and a questionnaire, we investigate the practices of casual mobile gamers around their management of visibility and invisibility. We consider these practices as ways of managing privacy requirements within algorithmic public spheres. Australian and German mobile game play will be explored in order to identify similarities and differences in practices of situated algorithmic management in the everyday. Germany has been the locus of considerable concern about online privacy, and part of the impetus behind the right to be forgotten data protection legislation. It therefore should pose an interesting site of comparison with Australia, where similar concerns have been evinced but are less evident within the broader public discourse and in legislative approaches. Michele Willson Katharina Kinder-Kurlanda Copyright (c) 2017 Selected Papers of Internet Research 2017-05-16 2017-05-16 6 FROM "GEEK" TO "CHIC:" WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY AND THE WOMAN QUESTION https://spir.aoir.org/index.php/spir/article/view/1334 Wearable technology has been hyped as the next revolutionary technology. Amid differing opinions regarding its overall impact, scholars have explored questions it raises about bodies, technology, and connection, with 'geek' technologies, for fitness and medical use, receiving the most attention. With the rise of 'chic' tech aimed at healthy bodies identifying as female, this project examines fashion tech designs currently on the market, and finds these products reveal a deep cultural ambivalence about what women want, and what society wants them to be. Drawing on ethnographic interview data with fashion tech designers, textual analysis of 50 news articles, content analysis of fashion tech product websites and ad campaigns, as well as participant observation at wearable tech expos and meet ups, I found three prevalent assumptions about women informing these devices. First, women are potential victims. Second, women should be as available to others as possible, especially those who are in their care. Third, the idea that women and tech don't mix, while gradually evolving, still prevails as a stereotype within the popular imagination.

Korea: https://spir.aoir.org/index.php/spir/article/view/1365 This study examines the trolling operation in S. Korea during the presidential election year in 2012. S. Korea national intelligence agency, National Intelligence Service (NIS) has conducted Internet trolling activity as a covert operation during the course of presidential campaign. The agency has set its goal to influence public discourse, in favor of the governing party and presidential candidate of the party. Since covert operation of intelligence agency is commonly illegitimate and rarely known, the case will provide us a unique opportunity to understand, how intelligence agency under authoritative regime uses its power and resources to manipulate public discourses and opinions The study uses legal documents made by Prosecutors' Office of S. Korea and trial records prosecuting the former NIS director. These materials are used to reconstruct the organizational structure of the trolling team and how the operation is conducted by NIS agents. We have conducted document analysis and used the content coding made by the Prosecutors' Office. The Office has analyzed the contents of trolling whether it is interfering the presidential elections or manipulating public discourse. The analysis results suggest that the operation to manipulate public opinion is preferable over censorship practice where formal democracy of laws and regulation explicitly prohibit large scale censorship. In addition, it is revealed that where technological and human resources to conduct censorship are limited – due to the prohibition by the laws and regulations – trolling operation is one of the most effective and efficient ways to intervene online public discourse.

Yet in the current digital environment, black-targeted websites that primarily produce entertainment news and sites that target African-American readers but are owned by white media companies create ambiguity. While research has been conducted on how mainstream publications have adapted to the digital landscape, this paper examines how that adaptation has occurred among black press outlets. This study investigates how producers and consumers of black news content online are troubling previous definitions of the black press. By examining how black news publishers of print and online content conceptualize their publications and how they are situated in the new media age, I am able to elucidate the affect that the changing digital landscape has on understandings of the black press.

Ultrafine grinding mill is a new kind of grinding equipment. For ultrafine mill production process, reduce the power consumption is to reduce the production input, is one aspect of the cost savings, we are here to introduce, how to reduce the power consumption of the problem.
To reduce when the machine is working, the power consumption of the problem, want to know, what is the reason caused the ultrafine mill at work, the increment of power consumption, so as to targeted to solve, in general, the change of the machine power consumption and material particle size and size, filling velocity and discharge port congestion, let's introduction to these aspects in detail, and introduce the corresponding solutions.
The reduction of power consumption can save production cost.
1. grinding granularity, in ultrafine mill, if grinding material particles larger, not only easy to formed in the feeding port congestion, still can cause production, grinding the phenomenon of increased difficulty, so that to achieve the same size of finished product particles, need more grinding process, and so increases the amount of power consumption equipment, for the solution of this phenomenon, is a material, ensure the material particle size to meet production requirements of the equipment, this will not increase the difficulty of its grinding, can be done in production demand at the same time, decrease power consumption.
2. filling speed, if the speed is fast or slow, will result in an increase in ultrafine grinding mechanical and electrical consumption, because feed fast, can form the speed of the grinding material can't keep up with feed speed, causing a lot of material accumulation in the grinding chamber, increasing loading of equipment, its power consumption increase phenomenon, and if the feeding speed too slow, perhaps give too little, can form the phenomenon of equipment idle, this time without grinding materials, but also in operation, so power consumption quantity will increase, for the solution of this phenomenon, is in accordance with the requirements of the ultrafine mill powder machine, continuous evenly into the material, it can effectively decrease power consumption.
3. at work, if the discharging mouth jam phenomenon, so formed inside the mill set a lot of material, natural and will also increase the equipment running resistance, increase power consumption, to reduce the power consumption amount ultrafine mill, need to always check the powder of the discharging mouth situation, ensure the unobstructed sex discharge equipment.

Barbara Ehrenreich - Going To Extremes: Notes From a Divided Nation
- David Pollock
- 17 July 2008
Although any balanced reader might browse the political essays and features of left-wing American commentator Barbara Ehrenreich and get a vague sense of agitprop being deployed, perhaps that's just the author's bold and sometimes sarcastic style. Perhaps, but most pieces are three pages long, obviously produced previously as periodical columns (the author writes or has written for The Progressive, The New York Times, Time magazine), and so must be punchy and attention-grabbing. Some sample titles: 'Banish the Bloated Overclass', 'Minimum Wage Rises, Sky Does Not Fall'.
By this basis, the collection – originally published as This Land is Their Land: Reports From a Divided Nation in the US – is a coffee table read, a work to be nibbled at rather than devoured. On these terms it's excellent, with Ehrenreich examining America's widening financial divisions by bringing leftfield insight to the representations of Michael Mann's Miami Vice film, or whether greasy food is seen as a sign of affluence or poverty. Beware, though, the writer's good-natured cynicism can be infectious if devoured all at once.

How to Ground – Aligning Yourself With Earth Energy
Have you ever been in a shopping mall or a room full of people and felt as though your feet weren't firmly on the floor? Learning to ground will most definitely help with this disconcerting feeling and will also help you center your body and your mind into the space you are in. We hear so much about being "in the present" but it can be impossible if we are scattered and unconnected.
The benefits of grounding are numerous. Once grounded you are provided with a support framework in which you feel more secure, less scattered, and much calmer. Grounding can also assist in slowing your conscious reality so that you make better choices without feeling rushed. Over time this practise can help you exert better control of your emotions and your life.
Grounding is simply the act of aligning yourself with earth energies, bringing your awareness more fully into your body and then anchoring. Although it's best to perform this exercise before you feel the effects of being unconnected, once learned it can be completed quickly and discretely.
Have you used grounding in your every day life?
- First, sit in a comfortable chair with your feet flat on the floor. Your focus should first be on the connection with your feet to the floor (or the ground), and that of your seat to the chair.
- Close your eyes and take a deep breath. Slowly pull the air into your body by expanding your stomach area. This brings air deeply into your lungs. Slowly release the air through your mouth. Repeat twice.
- As you continue breathing, gently bring your awareness to the bottom of your spine. Imagine that from the bottom of your spine is growing a strong, healthy cord or root. This root begins to grow downwards through the floor and into the soil below.
- Imagine this root or cord working its way deeply into the earth. You can almost hear it as it makes its way through rock and soil, perhaps winding itself around other strong tree roots or huge boulders. Mentally project this cord or root all the way into the core of the earth, securing you to the earth and connecting you to the vast strength she holds.
- Next, imagine all your negative thoughts and fears coming together within your abdomen. Flush these unwanted feelings down through your root, deeply into the earth, until they are incinerated in the earth's core.
- When all your negativity is released and you feel securely connected, I would like you to envision earth's vast strength begin to travel up through your root and into your body. Imagine this energy is gold in colour and, with your mind's eye, watch as it travels up through your torso, into your legs and arms, up into your chest, your throat, and up to the top of your head. Take a moment as you envision this beautiful energy streaming to every part of your body. Watch as it strengthens and revitalizes you.
- When you feel as though your grounding is complete, take in three more slow, deep breaths and acknowledge that you are now in the present and that your connection with the earth will remain unbroken throughout the day.
- Slowly open your eyes.
In Conclusion
As a highly sensitive person, I have found the practice of grounding to be an essential part of my life. As a psychic, a medium, and a Reiki Master I have realized that it is essential. I hope these easy steps will help you to feel steadier, stronger, and more fully present.
This is a great hub and I have to say it's a subject that interests me a lot. I've always had problems with grounding properly and tried various techniques but have only had partial success. I often found that for some reason after doing an exercise I would actually feel worse and a bit irritated as if nerves etc. were all firing off! Very odd!
But just after reading your excellent hub I gave the mediation a go and boy it worked so well!! What I also found was that the meditation was calming but did perk me up but with no irritability or nervousness.
I do need to ground more often than I do, as, like yourself, I'm very sensitive and also have - not very much - but a little psychic ability. So yes, it's really essential that I find a good grounding technique and this mediation, thankfully, has worked so well.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable hub and many thanks for sharing! Voted up + shared!!
Beautiful and useful. Sometimes things just become so tangled we run here and there and feel all scattered. Grounding is a great way to be complete as well as focused. Love this!
This is sounds a bit like a self hypnosis activity that I use at times. I like the feeling of taking time just to focus and become centered or to ground as you have explained here.
I am bookmarking this to refer to. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Sending you Angels this morning. :) ps
This hub is so interesting. I just followed your instructions and I feel a little more focused and at ease than I was just a few moments ago. I'm gonna share this.
I find I do similar procedures when I have problems sleeping. Could that be? I really have to focu, and then I go to sleep. Very interesting Hub
Great information. I have done meditations similar to this in the past and always a wonderful experience. You have reminded how important it really is to my sanity.
Such a great article. We all need to be grounded. It helps us to chanel positive energy.
I found this hub amazing and I so related also.
I know my sister and youngest daughter who have so tragically passed over are with me daily .
I have always found my strength since a little girl in Mother Nature's care.
I really am looking forward to following you on here .I vote this gem up,across and share.
Enjoy your day.
Enjoyable read. Great topic. Very useful and it does work.
I have actually done this back in the 70's. You did a great job of explaining the process and I can testify that it actually does wonders.
Very nicely written. The importance cannot be overstated.

Festivals are the time that we take a break from our routines and spend some quality time with our near and dear ones. Festivals have become reasons for family get-togethers instead of the other way around. In recent years, we have also noticed Bollywood taking advantage of the festivities to release big-budget movies. This helps with maximizing profits and at the same time provides audiences with ample entertainment during the festive season. Salman Khan has managed to make himself synonymous with Eid as he has managed to churn out a release on Eid, year after year. There is yet another coveted date that filmmakers want to block before anyone else does. Yes, you guessed it right. It's Diwali. We see yet another year in which two major productions have lined up to entertain us. If you think this trend is only a decade old, you could not be more wrong. If we look back into the 90s, we see some super-duper hits of that time that might have reached that status because of their release during the festive season. Don't believe us? Have a look at it yourself.

When it comes to food, I wholeheartedly endorse Julia Child's advice. "Everything in moderation, including moderation." That means that braised kale and roasted Brussels sprouts appear in my kitchen with more regularity than desserts do. But to keep all that moderation in check, my desserts often make a reappearance at breakfast the next morning.
These plum cobblers are the perfect example. But, they too, exhibit a bit of moderation in their own right. They have just enough sugar to get the juices from the plums flowing without masking the flavor of the fruit. I inject a bit more nutritional value into the typical biscuit topping by swapping whole wheat flour for some of the white flour. I add ground flax seeds in lieu of all butter. Then to add the flavors of fall I use two of my favorite spices: cinnamon and cardamom. Add to that the individual serving size and I think I've perfected moderation. So much so that there is not a single bit of guilt as I enjoy one for dessert…and then one the next morning for breakfast alongside my steaming mug of Earl Gray tea. Bon appetit!

maybe i need to call this bittersweet two. check out the comments already down there from a thoughtful 'younger than those of who cant help but remember how we got here generation'. the moment, the day and Barack and Michelle Obama were perfect. he wove together everything and everyone. he was everything george bush and his minions were entitled to by birth and education but never were.
but in some sense the question is why this is so extraordinary. and why did this country continue to indulged in racism, discrimination against everyone, and a lack of beauty and soul for 40 years after the civil rights movement, american indian movement and other brave people spoke the truth to the government and people.
but for the moment i will focus on the sweet. i have walked and been inspired by the singing of 'we shall overcome' in an oklahoma city church before a march, bette midler's singing of 'gotta have friends' before a gay rally in washington square, folksingers singing woodie guthrie's 'this land is your land' and american indian singing, poetry and speech. and i listened to recordings of bill broonzy singing 'if you're black...' which was expanded so magnificently by a true civil rights veteran to my joy and that of barack obama
it's not for me to determine whether my actions lived up to the what these moments should have inspired. but i do know that january 19th and 20th, 2009, were better days than any of us deserve. thank you barack obama and all those who have gone before you.
We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.

Iberdrola SA (IBE.MC) said Thursday that approval of U.S. tax reforms will result in a non-recurrent income for 2017 of 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion) after taxes.
The Spanish company said these are preliminary calculations based on adjustments in several accounting items currently being analyzed.
Continue Reading Below
Iberdrola doesn't expect the non-recurrent income to materially alter its consolidated net profit for the year. Its impact will be offset by the application of management measures to optimize the business and the final accounting value of its Brazilian business after the completion of a share capital increase at its Neoenergia subsidiary.
Such measures could include potential write-downs in the accounting values as a result of the exit or discontinuation of certain businesses--such as gas storage or engineering--and plans to improve operating efficiency.
These measures will positively affect its consolidated earnings in the coming years, Iberdrola said.
Definitive details on the measures will be communicated to the Spanish regulatory authorities in the presentation of the fiscal year results for the company, to be carried out in February.

1. The Foundation of Discipleship is Obedience (v.46)
"Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?
We must remember that when Jesus preached this sermon, his audience stood in widening concentric arcs. Closest stood the freshly chosen Twelve. Around them spread a "large crowd of his disciples" and beyond them "a great number of people" from all various areas (Luke 6:17).
2. The True Disciple: Lays a foundation (v.47-48)
I will show you what he is like who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice. [48] He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.
a. He comes and hears and does (v.47)
b. He is like a builder (v.48a-c)
He builds a house (v.48a)
He digs deep (v.48b)
He lays a rock foundation (v.48c)
c. Result: It stands (v.48d)
3. The False Disciple: Lays No Foundation (v.49)
But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who
built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that
house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete."
a. He hears, but does not obey (v.49a)
b. He is like a builder (v.49b-d)
Builds a house (v.49b)
Does not dig (v.49c)
Lays no foundation (v.49d)
c. Result: A great fall (v.49e)
Conclusion:There was once a Shakespearian actor who was known far and wide for his one-man show of readings and recitations from the classics. He would always end his performance with a dramatic reading of the Twenty-third Psalm. Each night, without exception, as the actor began his recitation—The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want—the crowd would listen attentively. And then, at the conclusion of the psalm, they would rise in thunderous applause in appreciation of the actor's incredible ability to bring the verse to life. But one night, just before the actor was to offer his customary recital of Psalm Twenty-three, a young man from the audience spoke up. "Sir, do you mind if tonight I recite the Twenty-third Psalm?"
The actor was quite taken back by this unusual request, but he allowed the young man to come forward and stand front and center on the stage to recite the psalm, knowing that the ability of this unskilled youth would be no match for his own talent. With a soft voice, the young man began to recite the words of the Psalm. When he was finished, there was no applause. There was no standing ovation as on other nights. All that could be heard was the sound of weeping. The audience had been so moved by the young man's recitation, that every eye was full of tears. Amazed by what he heard, the actor said to the youth, "I don't understand. I have been performing the Twenty-third Psalm for years. I have a lifetime of experience and training—but I have never been able to move an audience as you have tonight. Tell me, what is your secret?" The young man humbly replied, "Well sir, you know the psalm…but I know the shepherd."

Elderly parents who need help are often the ones who resist it the most. It's all too common that they adamantly insist they can still manage their daily lives on their own. But when you see your parents not eating properly, wearing the same clothes every day, failing to take their medication, or letting the garbage pile up excessively, you know you have to intervene. The key of course is to curb your strong insistence on handling their affairs, and to gradually introduce them to the services they need.
Here are tips on how to get help for a resistant parent:
1. If your situation requires immediate attention, contact a geriatric care manager who has the expertise to help your parent accept assistance. A Geriatric Case Manager offers professional consultation and care management to help you make the right decisions in caring for your parent.
2. The elderly usually respect the advice of their doctors. Consult with your parent's physician and ask the doctor to suggest a plan that includes a home health aide to assist with maintaining the health and safety of your parent so that he or she can continue to remain at home. If your loved one needs care after returning home from the hospital, ask both the discharge planner and the doctor to recommend a home health aide as part of recuperation.
3. Work together with your family to encourage your loved one to accept help. If your parent sees you are united in your concern for his well-being and think a home health aide is a good solution, he or she might be more willing to listen and give it a try.
4. Ask your parent's neighbors to help with small tasks like picking up groceries, watering the lawn, shoveling snow, and taking out the garbage. This will show him or her how much more comfortable and less confusing her life would be with even more help inside her home. Point out how overwhelmed he or she gets doing everyday household chores like laundry, cleaning, and preparing meals.
5. If you have a kind and compassionate neighbor, ask her to stop by with a meal every day and chat with your parent. Once he or she sees he can trust the neighbor, it will be easier for him to open his home to other kinds of help.
6. To make sure that your parent is eating right, suggest having meals delivered by meals-on-wheels programs usually run by senior centers and religious organizations. Your parent might be more amenable to meals provided this way, geared to his diet and liking.
7. Usually the elderly are conscious about spending their money and will accept services that cost very little or that are free. Groceries and pharmacies offer free delivery, health clinics, hospitals, and public health departments offer free health screenings and shots, and dentists offer services for the homebound. Learn what is available to your mother in her community so that she will learn to take advantage of and accept all types of help.
8. Don't be afraid to consult with others who also have aging parents resisting help. The ideas that work for them may be valuable to you too.

Product Description
Get Highest Quality of GRF 1-44 Research Peptide Online
GRF 1-44 is a synthetic hormone vital in enhancing release of growth hormone from pituitary gland. Its effect on growth hormone depends on receptors and binding of molecules, whereby the growth hormone is released in pulses alongside somatostatin in pulses. The hormone appears on the hypothalamus during the gestation period that takes 11 weeks. GRF appears in a fetus at this initial period time. Recent studies have shown that GRF 1-44 or somatoliberin is important in animal test subject in accentuating the synthesis from somatotrophic cells and secreting it as human growth hormone. Furthermore, before the hormone is transported to the area where it performs its function via the bloodstream. Somatocrinin is accumulated in neurons found in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus.
There is a continued study on importance of GRF 1-44 peptide especially its potency and efficacy. However, based on the studies that have already been conducted, the hormone produced endogenously compared to synthetic peptide has a longer half-life. The half-life of endogenously produced hormone is several seconds to minutes and to get the best results it is important that you use a perfect mode of administration. You should administer a right dosage to the test subject and ensure that it does not cause adverse cellular change. GRF 1-44 has been modified several times through chemical reactions with an aim of increasing its half-life and how it functions. These is not the case with exogenous peptides which only get synthesized for commercial purposes, however for it is very vital for research purposes because modified peptide has a better bioavailability. Moreover, to allow the substrate to bind effectively, synthetic peptides binding sites are strategically positioned. Binding ligand to the receptor is an essential component for any process to occur in a biological system. The affinity and the strength of binding have been increased by the modification of the GRF 1-44 peptide.

A major problem with the endogenous peptide is that it is affected by components in the system and common issues being denaturation. However, the amino acid arrangement has been altered to deal with the issue and it allows the peptide to travel long distances without losing its functionality. The release of the growth hormone from somatotrophic because of GRF 1-44, because it increases its production and efficiency levels of GHRH.
Role of GRF 1-44 in Inducing Sleep
There are minute amounts of growth hormone releasing a hormone in serum and the level of the peptide reduces with time. It is essential to note that it works on biological cells to aid in releasing growth hormone per cell on pituitary gland. In human beings, there is a correlation between circadian rhythm and GHRH concentration based on a current study carried out.This concentration is at its peak in the evenings and at night but is low in the morning hours. GRF 1-44 causes rapid eye movement with an insignificant effect on body temperature. Induction of sleep is varied depending on the mechanism of action and concentration of growth hormone releasing hormone or GRF. Plasma concentration of the growth hormone releasing hormone is influenced by induction of sleep mode.
There are different ways of understanding how people with Cushing's syndrome can utilize this peptide to reduce effects of such a condition. GRF 1-44 is important in inducing slow wave sleep mode and studies reveal that it has a role in enhancing the quality of sleep. In a biological system where growth hormone release hormone is in a higher concentration efficacy of this peptide cannot be underestimated especially in releasing sleep-inducing factors. Radioimmunoassay results show the half-life of endogenous growth hormone-releasing hormone is about 7-9 minutes and in a situation where this peptide interacts with other drugs it can undergo metabolism. Internal mechanism, which controls sleep, is an area of interest in modern science and researchers are looking for ways of increasing amount of hormone released to induce sleep. Some of the peptides that are involved in sleep include prostaglandins, cholecystokinin among others. There is a correlation between circadian rhythm and humoral mediators. Since growth hormone releasing hormone was discover there have been many anticipated benefits and scientific research is focused on enhancing production of hormones that induce sleep. However, all peptides are for research purpose only and human consumption is not allowed.
Growth hormone releasing hormone is touted as a major contributor of sleep. However, it is imperative to understand that is not classified as a sedative agent. Modulator effects of this peptide play a pivotal role in inducing sleep according to research mice that were administered with a dosage of GRF peptide. According to this study growth hormone, releasing hormone induces sleep for a longer duration when administered in the right dosage. Even when these research mice were disturbed they showed no effect on their sleep, they continued with their sleep, and sleeping pattern was not altered. Subsequent studies are being done to increase the efficacy of the peptide and improve its release. Moreover, it is focused on reducing enzymatic degradation. Once GRF peptide has been approved by relevant authorities, it could present a new dimension in combating conditions such as insomnia and sleep-related conditions.
Role of GRF 1-44 in Neurotransmission
Growth hormone is known to induce growth of cells from minute compounds or nascent cells to mature cells. It is imperative to note that GRF 1-44 has the ability to increase production of cells, this is important especially in healing and repairing of damaged cells in a biological system. When the level of hormone rises, it increases the level of cyclic adenosine monophosphate. Activation of cyclic adenosine phosphates is vital in accentuating production of protein kinase A and this allows CREB or cyclic adenosine monophosphate response binding protein. Phosphorylation of CREB occurs and this chain is important in signaling transcription factors and other components via CRE or cyclic adenosine monophosphate on promoting side of the gene sequence. Promote side of gene is important in accentuating production of hormone via addition of a phosphate group. Production of growth hormone occurs via phospholipase C pathway and this is crucial in cellular differentiation, development, and maturity. Activation of phospholipase C pathway is important because it stimulates the production of calcium ions in the ER or endoplasmic reticulum and fusion of this component with triphosphate lead to production of the hormone. Channels releasing growth hormone are calcium dependent and a rise in calcium levels increases hormonal production.
Growth hormone releasing hormone is important in stimulating release of GH from tiny cells located on pituitary gland. GHRH is postulated to be the best hormone in inducing hormonal production and it is a classic growth hormone releasing secretagogue. Discovery and characterization of growth hormone releasing are some of modern science research focus. A reduction in production of growth hormone has adverse effects in a biological system. Receptors binding to a ligand and its orientation play an essential role in accentuating release of growth hormone from the anterior lobe of pituitary gland. Tiny cells on pituitary gland are responsible for releasing growth hormone in pulses. Moreover, growth hormone is released alongside somatostatin. In most cases, failure of receptors to respond to growth hormone or production of growth hormone in low amounts results in disorders such as stunted growth. Understanding various aspects of growth hormone is important in finding the overall functionality of the peptide. The most common problem is a failure of receptors and this cannot be cured but the hormonal administration in some cases has shown to be effective in reducing these effects.
Role of GRF 1-44 in Growth Hormone Deficiency
Currently, numerous studies are solely focused on finding functionality and efficacy of GRF 1-44 in increasing production of growth hormone. Research done on mice with low growth hormone produced showed that growth hormone releasing is important for growth and development to occur. Endogenous production of growth hormone is important because without it cellular production, multiplication, and development are key areas of modern science. In modern science, the mode of action of is an important aspect of research. In most cases, scientists are looking for different ways in the production of cells and aiding them to mature. It is imperative to note that GRF 1-44 improves efficacy and potency in tissue repair, wound healing, and production of new cells in a biological system. Currently, the hormone is under research and especially in clinical and research laboratories. The release of growth hormone is largely affected by two hormones somatostatin and growth hormone releasing hormone.
Growth hormone releasing hormone has a positive feedback in increasing the amount of GH produced per somatotroph on the pituitary gland. It is vital to note that growth hormone is episodically or periodically released in pulses and monitoring concentration and amount of hormone produced per cell is vital in understanding working mechanism. Moreover, the presence of peptide is efficient in showing or on the identification of ectopic tumors. This is a major breakthrough in modern science. Sampling blood from research mic every twenty minutes, five hours, and twenty-four hours can help in determining variation and total secretion of growth hormone. Identification of secretory aspects and amount of growth hormone is important in determining if the cells are in a good working condition. Moreover, an amount of growth hormone in serum is effective in accentuating various aspects such as division of cells, development, and maturity of these cells. Recent research studies reveal that production of growth hormone occurs at night. The main explanation to this concept is that cells are repaired during sleep and growth hormone is produced in large quantities to regenerate and alleviate dead cells. Interaction of growth hormone and its modulators are essential in bringing a net positive on growth and development of cells.
Active Site
According to a recent research , a full biological activity of growth hormone is in the first twenty-nine amino acids. Tumors showed that these 29 amino acids are essential in bringing out the desired effect. Stimulatory effects of growth hormone releasing hormone usually occur via stimulation of cyclic AMP production. Isolation of messenger ribonucleic acid from cancerous cells has allowed researchers to come up with different ways of combating necrotic tumors and finding various ways in which cells work. Sequenced human genes indicate that growth hormone is located on chromosome number 20 and it is about ten-kilo base pairs with five exons. The sequence of growth hormone on research mice has forty-three amino acids and it differs from human growth hormones, which has fifteen less amino acids. The weight of amino acids on a polypeptide plays an essential role because it determines if it can pass through different cells and tissues to accentuate its function. Modification of peptide is mainly focused on improving its efficacy and potency.
Studies are still underway to ascertain mode of action of GRF 1-44, efficacy and potency in accentuating growth hormone. Research studies have shown that synthetic version of growth hormone releasing hormone has a longer half-life and administering it on a biological system will result in long lasting effects. It is imperative that when conducting research you should administer the right dosage to avoid complication and other side effects that GRF peptide may present in its working environment. In research, activity of a peptide largely depends on mode of administration since it is sensitive to environmental changes and the presence of enzymes and other catalytic materials. Modifications of peptide GRF are important because they serve to increase activity and prevent degradation. Moreover, it helps in presenting the active site to bind to the right receptors, the half-life of GRF 1-44 is enhanced by the modification, and binding sites are strategically place to receptors for maximum activity.
Studies reveal that synthetic version is more potent that endogenous hormone because of enhancement and modifications on amino acid sequence. Synthetic growth hormone releasing hormone can travel long distances in a biological system without degradation. Denaturation, degradation, and deactivation are the main challenges of endogenous hormones. Before a hormone reaches the site of action enzymes and proteases would have deactivated or denatured it. Since growth hormone is released in pulses alongside somatostatin reducing the activity of somatostatin is key in increasing GH released per-somatotrope. Some studies have shown that growth hormone releasing hormone has a major role in promoting slow wave sleep.

So yesterday I decided to make some home made Jook (juk/ Korean rice porridge) from what I had around the house. Rice, chemical free carrots, broccoli and squash.
So I began by making up a pot of rice. I then took some of the rice and put it into a pot with extra water to make it softer.
I peeled and chopped chemical-free carrots with my food processor. I then added the chopped bits of carrot to the rice and water. I did the same with broccoli and squash.
Next I added the veggies with rice and water mixture to heat and soften.
I left the mixture to cool, then pureed it adding water until it was a good consistency.
Finally I put the food into sterilized baby-food jars, sealed them, marked them with the date and froze them.
Finally I gave some to PH to try... gotta love his reactions to new things! >.<

Director Marc Webb teases that Dane Dehaan may not be the villain you think he is in The Amazing Spider-Man 2
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 just kicked off production a few days ago and director Marc Webb is not looking to let us forget it. The director has been tweeting a pic a day since the start and yesterday saw a picture of a metallic locker with the number 14 on it. For those who are familiar with the Ultimate Spider-Man comics, a similar metallic locker discovered by Peter Parker and Eddie Brock housed the original symbiote invention created by Peter's parents to cure cancer, which eventually bonded to Brock and became...you guessed it...Venom.
Webb included the hashtag "happy birthday" in his tweet, but did not specify to whom. However, the folks at Crave Online, who originally made this connection, found that February 6th, the day the tweet was sent, is actually the birthday of Dane Dehaan, who is cast as Harry Osborn in the sequel. Posting that along the pic could mean many things; misdirection, unrelated accident, or, well, that Dane Dehaan is Venom.
That would certainly be going in another direction, and an interesting one at that. I was more than underwhelmed by THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, which leaves me little to lose with the sequel. However, since we're (hopefully) done with the tired origin business, perhaps we'll get to see ol' Spidey throw down with some serious villains this time out, instead of that Geicko Lizard in the last one.
Day 3. #happybirthday twitter.com/MarcW/status/2…— Marc Webb (@MarcW)
Whatever the case, I'm much more intrigued with this sequel than I was with the original. Fingers crossed that Webb and co. can really bring something new this time out. And, personally speaking, I'd be totally down with Dehaan taking on the snarl-toothed Venom, even if it happens in the end credits.
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, starring Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jaimie Foxx, Dane Dehaan, Colm Feore, Martin Sheen, Sally Field, Paul Giamatti, and Shailene Woodley is set to swing into theaters on May 2, 2014.

I love parfum. I know it's an indulgence sort of like buying expensive shoes. Parfum should be handled with care and like expensive shoes, it needs to be stored properly. But if you're like me, you probably like displaying the beautiful bottles on your bathroom counter or vanity. Turns out, the way I've been storing or displaying my parfum is wrong.
Check this out from the Once Daily Chic Blog:
Are you a perfume horder with one for every day on display? Or are you like me & use one bottle till its finished & move onto the next? Ive just finished 3 lots of Gucci Flora which i LOVE and have moved onto a bottle of Vera Wang Princess (my nanna gave it to me after we got engaged). I also adore KAI - its not easy to find but its stocked atMecca & has the most amazing gardenia scent. Whats your favourite?
I read a really interesting article in a recent Madison Magazine about fragrance & perfumes. It included a section on the optimum way to store your perfume, and its not what you really want to hear....
"Keep your fragrances, including perfume, eau de parfum, cologne and eau de toilette away from heat. Most importantly, protect them from direct light, especially sunlight. Light affects the chemical makeup of a fragrance and will change its color which affects the dynamics of how it combines (so that means that keeping our beautiful perfumes out on display is really not the best idea - i think im going to have to ignore this advice! Interetsing though!) Perfume also hates humidy - so the bathroom is not the best place for it (damn - thats where mine lives!).
It is best to keep the fragrances in their original containers, if possible, and with the tops tightly closed to avoid exposure to air. If given a choice, opt for bottles with spray dispensers as opposed to ones with open tops or roller balls. Spray dispensers better protect the fragrance from exposure to dirt, dust and air, and have a longer shelf life, too. Don't be too quick to throw away bottles of perfume that you think may be too old to use, as long as they have been stored properly over the years.

Fernworthy Forest
United Kingdom.
(Grid Ref: SX655841)
Fernworthy Forest is a large coniferous plantation within the Dartmoor National Park, it was established shortly after the First World War in an effort to replace much reduced natural resources. The nearby Fernworthy Reservoir was constructed in 1942.
The southern stone row, very low stones barely poking above the earth, is difficult to discern and probably consist of a dozen or so small stones. This avenue leads towards the stone circle of Froggymead, 27 stones of local granite arranged in a circle some 20 metres in diameter; nearby are a number of burial cairns.
From the circle a row continues northwards, again the stones are difficult to recognise as they too are very small and hidden by the grass and vegetation. Archaeological excavations of stone rows in Dartmoor show that they were most often constructed in woodland clearings that were once used for agriculture. The northern row is said to be formed of 32 standing stones and 20 recumbent stones, or stones barely breaking through the surface of the earth - a 'blocking stone' stands at the northern end.
