text: Taking two movements each from Bachs orchestral suites 2 and 3 (B minor and D), Mahler added post-Bachian clarinets and piano. Piano? Yes, not what I was expecting either. Suite for organ, harpsichord and orchestra is Mahlers title, duly noted and discussed in the Philharmonia Orchestras programme; Salonens recent recording of it (Sony) is so-described and executed; Chailly performed it thus with the Concertgebouw Orchestra in London last year. Norrington dropped both the organs sustaining role and the harpsichord (continuo) for the (very effective) piano, which presumably used the harpsichords part. Norrington also opted for a solo violin (rather than Mahlers tutti) to duet with Ken Smiths flute in the first of the two chosen movements the B minors overture using the Philharmonias full strings but refusing them the use of vibrato, which Mahler himself surely wouldnt have done. Fine performance though, bright and shiny, scholarly and joyous, the wisdom of using antiphonal violins always aurally apparent; Norringtons eight double basses, lined across the back of the platform, added weight without subsidence. Norringtons affection for Suite 3s pair of gavottes made them positively Handelian! A much reduced string section (three basses) authenticated the Mozart, further achieved by Michael Collins using a basset-clarinet, believed to be what Mozart intended. Allowing that the outer movements were perhaps too nifty, Collinss virtuosity and Norringtons phrasal ease (helped by the merest staccato on the shortest notes) ensured more or less that articulation and shape didnt suffer unduly. Intimate and autumnal, this subtly inflected reading came into its own in the flowing slow movement with a wistful, magically-quiet return of the opening idea, Collins supplying ornamentation to the printed line and relishing the bassets low notes in the finale. Mahler does without trombones in No.4, an indication of his concern for transparent orchestration in this nostalgic, evocative, even neo-classical symphony. Its not often these days that Mahler 4 is dispatched in 48 minutes - 55 might be a reasonable average; an hour-plus has been achieved. Bruno Walter and Leopold Ludwig, say, in their recordings are close to Norringtons 48 (how Bachian!) but is it authentic? Willem Megelberg, a close friend of Mahler, in his 1939 Concertgebouw recording (an essential document for anyone commenting on the Fourth) took nearly 58 (17.5, 8.5, 21.5, 10); Norringtons movement timings (15, 8, 17, 8) and his one-tempo, somewhat straitjacketed conducting is in total contrast to Mengelbergs interventionist approach. Nor did Norrington introduce portamento outside of that notated. In one sense, this was a squeaky-clean rendition allowing Mahlers text the opportunity to speak for itself. Yet, allowing that Norrington might have been in the wrong time-zone and that the composer himself would have been more sectional, Norringtons view had an instinctive period feel - his unsaturated and integrated account proved a refreshing countenance to the obvious indulgence and powerhouse manner of contemporary Mahler performance. Norrington certainly convinced that everything in the first movement can be related, driving the music on albeit too relentlessly at times despite the Philharmonias nimble and sensitive execution to implied catastrophe, as what might be a childs imagination succumbs to nightmare, a diabolical state retained with the tone-higher violin solo in the succeeding devilish scherzo, which here sounded rushed. Once again antiphonal violins offered revealing listening from the outset with the seconds tick-tock figuration (no pun intended) to the harps clock-ticking at the lullaby-close (a cross-reference Id not made before) in which Emma Kirkbys pure voice was a timbre-asset; she brought-off a very effective glissando. Norringtons allusion to time-passing was thought-provoking, as was his with-without use of vibrato without such decoration, violas and cellos at the start of the adagio had a viol-like quality, their sotto voce expression over a march-like bass-tread initiating a nocturnal forest walk. Norringtons demonstrative conducting and facial descriptions got the varied moods across Christopher Cowies lachrymose oboe solos in (iii) had a plangency which wouldnt have been out of place in Bachs St Matthew Passion. Such reference, and Norringtons individual response, ensured this was a Mahler 4 to extend ones appreciation of it on the never-ending learning-curve that is engaged, internally-grounded listening to music.

Young people from nine Aberdeenshire schools, including Peterhead Academy, had the opportunity to engage with local businesses at the Beach Ballroom earlier this month.
S3-S6 students from Peterhead joined with Meldrum Academy, Mearns Academy, Westhill Academy, Portlethen Academy, Mackie Academy, Fraserburgh Academy, Banff Academy and Turriff Academy to hear from a range of business leaders who view language skills as key to the growth and success of their company.
The Business Brunch demonstrated the relevance of language skills in a work context and aimed to encourage pupils to continue with their language studies into the senior phase of their secondary education, and beyond school.
Most importantly, it gives young people the opportunity to ask questions and find out more about the variety of careers and employment opportunities that are open to people who can demonstrate language skills on their CV.
A teacher attending said: "The event was very informative, provided usable information and generated excitement about language learning.
"We had the opportunity to ask questions directly of people in the industry."
One of the young people added: "The Brunch has really helped me with my subject choices.
"The event was very enjoyable and I recommend it to anyone who is still undecided about further language study. It really explained how important it is to learn a language."
Meryl James and Janette Kelso, part of the team behind the event, said: "Languages improve your overall being.
"They help with formation of synapses in your brain and increase its overall capacity to function; it's a workout for your brain really.
"Research from Edinburgh University shows the risk of developing dementia is greatly reduced if you study a language."
The event was organised by SCILT, Scotland's National Centre for Languages in partnership with the University Council for Modern Languages (UCML) Scotland.
Fhiona Fisher, director of SCILT said: "Events such as these are a really important way of providing young people with high quality careers advice delivered."

New petition wants Zack Snyder to helm solo Batman movie
Not too long ago Ben Affleck announced he would no longer be directing the new solo Batman movie, and the hopes and dreams for a new, great BATMAN movie slowly faded into a darkness that not even the Dark Knight can penetrate. Now the hunt is on for a worthy director to lead the Caped Crusader to glory and riches. However, some people think the answer is right in front of our faces – Zack Snyder.
Recently a petition went up on Change.org by one Jennifer Huneycutt, who claims the choice is a "no brainer", saying the director's knowledge of the characters, tone and direction of the cinematic universe make him the best choice to helm the movie:
Batman is an incredibly dark character (they don't call him The Dark Knight for nothing, you know), and Snyder's unique vision for his films is perfect for the tragic tale of Bruce Wayne.
She even cites movies like 300 and WATCHMEN as evidence for why he is so great at comic book adaptations. The director has already helmed two released movies in the DCEU -- MAN OF STEEL and BATMAN V. SUPERMAN -- with JUSTICE LEAGUE on the way. Currently the petition has 3,000 signatures with a total of 5,000 being sought, but no word on what exactly will be done if the number is reached. Is it like saying Beetlejuice's name three times, and all of a sudden Snyder will appear out of the mist in slo-motion?
Though I can't see this actually accomplishing anything it's still fun to talk about. I mean, the most badass scene in all of BATMAN V. SUPERMAN was the Batman warehouse scene, and an entire movie like that would be AMAZING. But I feel right now he has his hands too far into the DCEU to keep handling projects. New voices need to get in there, and some feel Snyder is the reason the DCEU movies aren't working. We have compiled a list of directors to take on the duty, and Snyder is not on the list. Maybe there's a good reason for that.
The Zack Snyder-directed JUSTICE LEAGUE arrives November 17.

Benefit concert for paralyzed Oakland boy
A benefit concert and silent auction for Christopher Rodriguez, the 10-year-old boy paralyzed from the waist down when he was shot during a piano lesson in Oakland last month, drew about 500 people Sunday.
"This morning in the courtyard at the hospital, Christopher and I were sitting in the sun thinking we knew something good would come out of this," said the boy's mother, Jennifer Rodriguez, referring to the outpouring of community support. "I just didn't know what it was going to be."
The event at the Chapel of the Chimes Columbarium raised upwards of $40,000, according to organizers with the Music School at Piedmont Piano Co., where on Jan. 10 Christopher was struck by a stray bullet allegedly fired by Jared Adams during a gas station robbery across the street. Christopher has been hospitalized since then. Adams, 24, of Oakland has been charged with attempted murder, robbery and other felonies.
"Our children go to the same music school, take the same lessons with the same teachers. It could have been anyone. It could have been him," said Montclair resident Mark Prager, pointing to his 7-year-old son Jacob, who accompanied him to the event. "We're here to show some solidarity and to help raise money."
The silent auction included autographed Oakland Raiders and Golden State Warriors memorabilia and other donated items. Proceeds will go to the Christopher Rodriguez Fund set up to help pay for medical bills and others expenses.
The teachers at the music school came up with the idea for the concert, in which they performed, just days after the shooting.
"We recognized the healing power of music," said Jim Callahan, owner of the music school. The teachers put up a poster to cover the hole in the wall where the bullet entered. "This event is about Christopher and the people who live and work in this community saying 'We're not going to be terrorized.' "
Christopher may be back home within a month and is taking classes at Children's Hospital Oakland in hopes of graduating with his class at Crocker Highlands Elementary, said his father, Richard Rodriguez.
"He's in a tremendous amount of pain, but he remains positive, which helps us too," the father said. "About a week ago, he grabbed my hand and said, 'Daddy, I see how you and Mommy are suffering. How can I make it easier for you and Mommy?' I told him he already has."
To help
A trust fund has been established for Christopher Rodriguez. Donations for the boy's care can be made to any Wells Fargo bank, account number 7013202606.

Why Cities Must Keep Equity a Central Focus in Building a Culture of Health
Cross-posted from Cities Speak
Where you live determines your health as well as your proximity to opportunity. However, deep patterns of discrimination, racial segregation, and decades of federal, state and local policies have dictated where people live and the opportunities to which they have access. Despite advances in public health and improved economic prosperity, poor health outcomes disproportionately affect low-income communities and communities of color.
We cannot ignore how historical, systemic and structural racism has also shaped our nation's cities and towns, resulting in disparities in education, housing, employment and health. Low-income communities and communities of color are still feeling the impacts of those decades-old decisions today. For these communities, the lack of key resources and services results in poor and costlier health outcomes, which are referred to as health inequities. Simply put, race and place matter when it comes to health and well-being.
In addition to having serious health consequences for individuals and families, health inequities negatively impact the economic competitiveness and vitality of cities through lost potential and productivity.
- In 2000, the infant mortality among African Americans occurred at a rate of 14.1 deaths per 1,000 live births, which is more than twice the national average of 6.9 deaths per 1,000 live births that same year
- Children who experience hunger are more likely to be in poor health and have behavioral and emotional problems in schools. Additionally, children experiencing hunger are more likely to repeat a grade and require special education services
- Researchers estimate that childhood lead exposure in homes costs society over $50 billion per year due to lost economic productivity resulting from reduced cognitive potential
Now more than ever, municipal leaders have a responsibility to lead the way in partnering with communities to reimagine, design, and plan healthy places for residents to live, learn, work, and thrive.
"Economic development is integral to having a healthy community. If we can address the economic issues in our neighborhoods, we can help people live healthier lifestyles," says Mayor Mark Holland, Unified Government of Wyandotte County, Kansas City, Kansas.

'CBI wants to arrest us without proof'
Gutka barons — Rasiklal Dhariwal of RMD Gutka and Jagdish Joshi of Goa Gutka — have contended that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) wants them in their custody without possessing any evidence against them.india Updated: Sep 16, 2010 03:04 IST
Gutka barons — Rasiklal Dhariwal of RMD Gutka and Jagdish Joshi of Goa Gutka — have contended that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) wants them in their custody without possessing any evidence against them.
Dhariwal and Joshi have challenged the non-bailable warrants issued against them by the special court under the Maharashtra Control of Organized Crime Act for their alleged underworld nexus.
The warrants were acquired by the investigating agency by showing them as "proposed accused". Their counsel, Sushil Kumar, argued that although the charge sheet is filed in the case, the CBI is still investigating it.
"Without any material against us, the CBI wants us arrested. They are determined to get our custody for custodial interrogation," argued Kumar.
The FIR lodged in October 10, 2004, does not mention anything about the underworld nexus, argued Kumar. CBI had alleged before a special court that Dhariwal and Joshi had allegedly helped underworld don, Dawood Ibrahim, in setting up a gutka business in Pakistan.
According to the CBI, co-accused had disclosed during interrogation, that they had sent gutka pouch-making machines to Pakistan via Dubai at the instance of both gutka barons to establish a gutka business for Ibrahim.
Kumar also argued that they are not aware as to what "sanction" has the CBI got, the basis on which they are seeking custodial interrogation of the duo.
"We have not seen the sanction order. However, usually, the investigating agency first completes investigation, places material before the sanctioning authority after which the court takes cognisance. Here the agency has first taken the warrants for investigation," argued Kumar.
A division bench of justice A.M. Khanwilkar and Justice U.D. Salvi asked on what basis they have challenged the non-bailable warrant and the sanction order. "If you don't have a copy of the sanction order, then how can you challenge it?" asked Justice Khanwilkar.
Kumar will continue his arguments on Thursday.

Rabbits, rabbits everywhere!
I bought this fabric on Saturday and had the idea to team it with my latest obsession: fabric art, to create a skirt. I made the pattern from an existing skirt that fits well.
The rabbit nearest the hem is purely free motion embroidered, the middle one combines free motion embroidery with Inktense, and the top rabbit is a Sharpie sketch.
I must take that hem out & redo it with blind hemming stitch!

Many of the millions of Americans with type 2 diabetes are leaving themselves open to life-threatening complications by not controlling their blood-sugar levels through medicine, food and exercise, an analysis of data from 157,000 patients suggests.
Two out of three patients taking a blood-sugar test exceeded target levels, according to data presented Wednesday at the annual meeting of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists in Washington. The association said the analysis marks the first time specialists have monitored the nation to see how diabetes treatment is working.

Case Study: My Experience With Houses
Finding the Residential Real Estate It is a must for you to acquire the right house this time and there are important things to bear in mind. You will never go wrong if you choose a home that will be your dwelling place along with your family members. The happiness of all your family members is what you are going to consider this time. If you choose to buy a house, you need to be sure that you get one which you can call your pride. It is important for you to know that your state has a lot of houses being offered for sale. You will never have issues this time if you would think of getting only the right house. It is just an amazing move for you to look for the best home seller. It is just meaningful on your part to look for some companies that offer real estate. However, it is important to choose only those who are homeowners. It will be very important for you to read some significant reviews from real estate companies that operate in you own state. It is important to take note of all the things that other people have to say about those companies. It will make a lot of sense for you to get the right reviews and know which one top the list but the one that is on top should provide the type of house that the entire family likes. It will be very important for you to choose an apartment once your family members like to avail it but your chosen seller should be able to provide it. You need to be sure that the place you would choose is ideal for living. If the peace and order situation of the place is good for you, then, you will never have problems in the long run.
3 Options Tips from Someone With Experience
It will be sensible for you to find a place that will make you accessible to important venues like schools, hospitals, malls, clubs, and airports. Hence, you need to know how it can be possible. It is also important for you to realize that you need the help of an agent to make things possible. It is just wonderful for you to consider hiring a real estate agent that does not have bias in his skin so that you can generate the right services from him. As an agent, he should have his own license and he has no connection to realtors in terms of business arrangements. It will never be a good idea to choose one that has access to realtors for he will protect the interest of the realtors by giving you huge amounts of deals.News For This Month: Options

Finally, the day had come to collect Phoenix of Hamble (from now on i'll just stick the name 'Phoenix')... i'd been watching the weather forecast closel for a few days, as the remnants of Hurricane Katia sped across the atlantic preceeded and followed by a series of vicious lows squeezing against the high over mainland Europe causing blustery and occasionally downright windy SW'lys across the UK.
I'd arranged a friday off work to give us a 3 day weekend for the delivery for a bit of contingency, and relaxed somewhat as I saw a clear weather window for Friday and Saturday, with Sunday still looking pretty rough. When I say a weather window, I mean that the forecast was only for a F5 to F6!
Initial challenge was that the previous weekend, i'd been down to the boat and loaded lots of kit onboard for the delivery trip, and fixed a few things required by the insurers for the trip... i'd also had a rigger on board making sure that the rigging was safe... new bilge pump fitted etc etc... along the way, I discovered that the new Schaeffer furler, lovely as it was, has a bolt rope size of 5mm, and the genoa with an 8mm bolt rope was never going to fit!... so a logistical nightmare to get the sail to a suitable sailmaker who had the tme and willingness to do the work, and then get it collected. Once again, my fabulous friends rallied to the cause, and Jim collected, while Roger picked it up afterwards.... many many thanks guys.... and a big hoorah to Wilkinson sails in Burnham who did the job for me, to a high standard, and with a really helpful attitude... highly recommended!
I also discovered that the one leak I knew about had unfortunately dripped straight into the engine start battery box... which had nicely contained the water, but its fair to say that the battery had seen better days after several weeks underwater!!!
So, gathering my crew (Jim and Alan - thanks for your help - much appreciated) at Shotley on Thursday evening, we loaded up the genoa, new battery, clothes, and a ton of other stuff, and set off... when I say set off, I mean drove to the train station... i'd planned on hiring a car for a one way trip, but that proved harder done than said.... with companies unable to deliver or collect out of hours to the locations needed, or at least at any sensible costs... and the train was a grand total of £57 for the 3 of us... it meant lugging everything across London, but the saving was worth it!
So... by midnight, after facing the challenge of underground stairs with so much kit, we rolled into Portsmouth station, and a short taxi ride via the supemarket to collect food (a great 'bloke' shop - where the trolley never stops moving, and things are grabbed as you go by), we made it to Port Solent...
And then we all crashed out for the night exhausted.
High water was 10:24 the next day, and we wanted this for an easy exit... so by 06:30 we were up, getting the jobs that still needed doing done.... the rigging final tightening, split pins added, the genoa fitted, etc etc...
a quick trip to the office to settle any outstanding berthing fees (ouch!) and we set off... me absolutely full of trepidation, as long keels are famous for going where they like in reverse... so I was pleased that with a bit of to-ing and fro-ing, we made it out safely, and then onto the fuel berth... fuel filler cap was stuck so I had to fill directly into the tank... fill being a relative term, as I 'only' put £200 in... its big tank.
And then, on free flow, we swept out into Portsmouth harbour.
You could almost hear Phoenix sigh with relief... back out at sea, with sails bent on.... she knew what was coming.
A short motor out through the small boats channel, and into the Solent...
The forecast F5 to F6 was somewhat pessimistic... perhaps 5 to 6kts.
And so we set a course for the forts, and then on outside the Looe passage... with the tide against us once we cleared the Solent, we felt it would be quicker to go outside where the rate would be much lower. By the time we turned properly east outside the Looe channel, we had around 12 to 15kts of wind, and so we set the sails and turned the engine off.
She sails like a witch!
A steady 6 kts STW, and she felt magnificent on the helm... i'm going to like her!
And so the trip continued.... after a couple of hours, the wind dropped again, and beside a small moment of panic when the engine wouldn't start, until I realised that I hadn't opened the battery switch properly, we motored. And motored. And motored.
The engine is amazing. 1300rpm and 7.5kts STW.... brilliant!
By the time we had been going a few hours it had started getting foggy, and like most things electrical on Phoenix at present, the radar didn't work. But we plugged on... in the fog pastBrighton and on to Eastbourne. By this time we'd already decided that with the forecast for Sunday, we'd do the whole trip in one go, and so we established a watch pattern, and I took first shift 22:00 to midnight.
Easy really... no traffic... no wind... no course changes!
At midnight, Alan relieved me, and I went to get my head down for my 4 hours, and slept like a log... I was awakened at 04:00 to find us just off North Foeland, where Jim pointed out to me a forest of lights. The new London Array windfarm... not on my 2004 charts. But it was OK... we could see the southerly cardinal, and just left that well to port.
By the time Alan came back on watch at 06:00, we were just approaching the Kentish Knock bouy in the Thames Estuary, and I was awake and fresh, so stayed up. We had what proved to be a completely uneventful trip... perhaps enough to sail on occasions, but marginal enough to not bother trying.
And at 08:30, Walton headland came into sight....
As we approcahed the entrance to Shotley, I glanced at my watch... amazing 25hrs, Portsmouth to Shotley... and average of 7.4kts.
The lock was painless, easy in fact, and the berth not much harder.
In and tied up, with not so much as a hiccup. Can't ask more than that!
...and now to get on with the massive jobs list!

Almost 400 years ago, John Donne penned the phrase, "No man is an island, entire of itself…" – words that continue to resonate today. Few would disagree on the need for collaboration, but humans as well as companies can often behave as if it is otherwise. Industry promotions often imply customers need look no further beyond a single entity. The reality is that no company is an island, nor is any solution for that matter; effective solutions and systems (especially in the electronics market segment) do not operate in a vacuum and success is often accomplished by providing a distinctive capability that betters the whole while seamlessly integrating existing technologies. The disruptive innovation from the external "ecosystem" must contribute a distinct new value, a depth of capability and ultimately prove to be a reliable addition. A quality ecosystem contribution is much more than a list of useful add-on features; its success is grounded in trusted partnerships and technologies that are established and developed to further specific customer advancements.
This need for successful ecosystems is particularly acute with the current challenges posed by global integration, complex electronic devices and the Internet of Things (IoT). The depth and breadth of these challenges command an ecosystem-rich environment to bring powerful solutions together in this hyper-connected world.
At CES 2017, by inviting Optimal+ to present and explore new possibilities with its Watson™ IoT Platform, IBM is driving the development of innovative, more customer-centric solutions by leveraging ecosystem partnerships.
The synergy between the two solutions is clear. The focus of Optimal+ is advanced product analytics and is complemented by IBM's powerful Watson IoT Platform solution which delivers rich, in-use data from electronic systems. By combining two powerful industry solutions, our customers have a solution that gives them full visibility and control of a product's quality from inception to end-of-life.
We appreciated our opportunity to work with IBM at CES 2017. We will continue to partner with leaders in the industry as it is clear from our customers' perspective that no innovative company can be an island.

Peterborough United have today confirmed the loan signing of Bradford City forward Aaron McLean. He will join Posh on a ten week contract, which could turn into a permanent move in January.
McLean has rejoined the team with whom he made a name for himself in the Football League, scoring 84 goals in 187 appearances before leaving for Hull City four-and-a-half-years later. He is eligible to play both in the league and FA Cup.
In an interview with the posh.com, McLean spoke of his delight at returning to London Road:
"It's great to be back.
"This is where I enjoyed my best days in football and I'm absolutely buzzing about my return.
"As soon as I heard Peterborough were interested in me, this was the only place I was going to come. There were other teams interested in me, but I've joined up with a the manager who knows me best and who knows how to get the best out of me."
Although he did not enjoy a lot of personal success away from London Road, McLean still spoke with fondness of his time at Hull City and Bradford City.
"I've enjoyed my times at Hull and at Bradford. I was asked to gamble, running off another striker at Bradford which is why it didn't work out for me. That's not my game. I want to play as a number nine and I want to score goals.
"That's the aim now I'm here. I'm here until the end of January and who knows after that?"
Were Peterborough United to consider offering the 31-year-old a permanent contract in the winter, the striker's wages would most likely prove a stumbling block: unless McLean would be willing to take a sentimental slice from his wages.
Manager Darren Ferguson was equally happy with the return of one third of his famous 'Holy Trinity'.
"I think Aaron will give everyone a lift on and off the field. He knows how I work and I know what he can bring to the team.
"I know he can score goals at this level. He will bring competition for places, which I feel is really needed at this moment in time."
Bradford manager, Phil Parkinson, also wished McLean luck on his Peterborough exploits.
"It's a good move and I'm pleased for Aaron. It's a good opportunity for him to go down there and get some games. Peterborough expressed an interest as soon as we made him available and that's where he preferred to go.
"A few clubs came in for him straight away but it's taken a bit of time to get the deal agreed with Peterborough. I hope he does well there."
McLean is currently fifth in Peterborough United's all time Football League scoring charts with 71 goals (league matches). He needs just 16 more goals to reach his century of Peterborough United goals in all competitions. Can he reach it before the loan expires?

It happened again. Just this morning. I couldn't make a connection with a client and her loved ones in heaven. Nothing came through. Well, that's not true. A few things did come through -- none of which were validated by my client. In my years of doing readings this has happened to me twice. Now I can say it's happened three times.
I hate it when this happens. My client was understandably upset. I stopped the reading 15 minutes in and said, "I am so sorry but I can't make a significant connection and I don't want to waste your time. Can I please mail your payment back to you?" I felt just terrible. I tried to explain that this had nothing to do with her or her loved ones in heaven who were trying to link in with me.
I wish I could explain to her, to myself, why this happened. But I can't. My reading before hers went great and my reading after hers went very well too. I have no idea why this happens. I just know that it does. Thankfully it's not often.
So why am I sharing this sad story with you? For two reasons. One, to let you know that if you get a reading with a medium and they can't make a connection with you, please don't take it personally. I know my client today had family members that wanted to talk to her. The problem was with me -- not them and not her. Our loved ones in heaven always want to talk with us. But the medium has to be perfectly on. I have to be aligned physically, mentally and spiritually. The other reason why I'm sharing this is to inspire all you budding intuitives out there who sometimes get a miss and then feel as though you should throw in the towel and stop trying to do this work. I believe this happens to all of us and who knows why? Maybe our energies just didn't align. I don't know, but it happened. And unfortunately, it will probably happen again. Does that mean I'm going to stop doing readings? No.
The Scottish medium Gordon Smith tells a story in his lectures of a woman in his development class who stopped doing readings for six years because once she couldn't make a connection with a client. Six years. I know how this woman feels. The first time I couldn't connect with a client, I did throw in the towel. I stopped doing readings for three months.
Doing this work can be difficult. It pulls on your energy; it's very emotional and personal. The messages are sometimes spot on; other times a bit vague. Sometimes a spirit comes through so strongly, I feel like offering them a cup of tea. Other times, it's like I'm mud diving in the Cape Fear River. I can make out the message but it's pretty vague. I never know why it works so easily and why other times it's so hard.
But it's also very meaningful work. I've had non-believers write to tell me that they are now considering believing in God. I've been able to make wonderful connections for parents who've lost their children and give them the assurance that their child is happy and safe in heaven. I've been able to pass on lovely messages of forgiveness and gratitude from parents to their adult children. So I will keep on keeping on.
However, I will always be honest about my work with you all. I want people to know that this isn't science. It can't be measured or proven. You have to believe in it and in yourself. Once that happens, anything really is possible. So if some of you out there are reading this and you think you're intuitive but maybe you've had a few misses lately, please keep on keeping on. I hope you take this blog post as a sign that being intuitive is our God given right. It's our safety net in scary times, our compass in troubling times and our connection with our higher power in all times.

The Doubting Psychic
2 comments:
I loved this post Samantha!!!! I have been struggling with my own doubts, though I am very budding and have never actually tried to sit down and read someone. I have moments of wide open moments, and others where I doubt there was ever anything at all. I can say that my reading with you was so amazing and validating. Honestly one of the best readings I have ever had, if not the best. You were amazing, and it was healing beyond belief. Thank you for posting this.ReplyDelete
Thank you Samantha I hope you can continue writing more posts on development to help budding intuitives misses Are hard and navigating the ego self is something everyone should be aware of.ReplyDelete

"The Obama People Better Start Packing Their Shit"• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Tyler Durden
The cautious and considered HR McMaster is leaving the White House to be replaced by one of the most polarizing, irascible figures operating in contemporary national security circles: Former UN Ambassador John Bolton.
Bolton, who recently penned an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal arguing that a preemptive strike against North Korea would be both legal AND desirable, is widely believed to be one of the most interventionist figures to ever hold a senior position in the US government. Case in point: Before 9/11, Bolton helped found a group calling for the unilateral overthrow of Saddam Hussein. Rand Paul declared that Trump was wrong to trust someone who is "unhinged as far as believing in absolute and total intervention."
So it should hardly come as a surprise that Bolton plans to shake up the National Security Council staff when he arrives in the West Wing. Foreign Policy reports that Bolton, Trump's third NSA in 15 months, is preparing to begin firing staff and replacing them with his own allies, as well as a few allies of former NSA Michael Flynn, who share Bolton's hawkish views.

All twisted to the side in the morning
That first night, he woke hourly - I saw the clock at 1 plus, 2 plus, 3 plus, 4 plus, 5 plus and finally six plus before I got up for good. And every time he woke, I nursed him. So I broke out the pacifier on his second night. I spent time putting the pacifier back and he still woke hourly but we went a couple of times without nursing to sleep.
Pacifier face
Within the past week, he woke less. Some nights, I didn't see 2 plus and 5 plus, or 1 plus and 4 plus. I seem to be living by the clock numbers these days - how long does he nap/sleep, when was his last feed, is it time to change his diaper though there's no poop...
Then I found that there were times when I could just place him on the bed and he would settle to sleep on his own! Last Saturday, I was watching Harry Potter on TV when he cried. I went in to settle him and just sat at the foot of the bed - um, no other space actually! - to watch the TV visible through the ajar door while he moved his little fists about until he knocked himself out. This is undoubtedly a big achievement unlocked all by himself for his mama :)
But it doesn't work every time. Sometimes, he wants to nurse; sometimes, he is too tired; most times, he has gas and/or poop. But I don't mind. We got our bed back. He is still near enough for me to get to him quickly.
At some point, however, we'll have to transit him to the kids' room so that we can reclaim our room and the lamp in it! While Kai probably won't disturb Yu too much, like he didn't disturb Yang when Yang moved into the room, I can't say the same for Yang, who is more active and unpredictable. To be safe, we'll let Yang grow a few more months and let Yu add a few more kilos before we let them sleep together...
Where's my baby's neck?!
Taller than the Devastator! Unless its gun is raised...
Though Yu is visibly growing, as in we find him looking bigger every few days, he still has tummy issues coz he's so gassy! This morning, he pooped on the changing table and I saw bubbles coming out with some poop, which, btw, was just before his projectile poop on my pants... (Then he pee onto a fresh diaper and wetting the sides - gotta change again!) I found an online tutorial on massaging a gassy baby and it has been useful! Rub thumbs to the sides from belly button, "I Love You" around the belly button, three fingers walking across the belly and rubbing any hard spots found. When baby gets cranky, hold the knees to the belly for 30 seconds. The key is to apply enough pressure.
Besides growing physically, he is also taking in more sights and sounds and saying more things. It's fun to talk to him, make movements with my hands, make facial expressions, and wait for him to respond with a smile or a "hur" or a punch or kick.
Finally spent more than five minutes on the baby gym looking around without fussing!
Looking at my hand movements above
In other news, I feel super auntie rocking the bouncer on Sunday
Oh wait, I AM an auntie! :p

President-elect Barack Obama's historic victory has SouthCoast residents talking — and one thing they agree on is that he has his work cut out for him.
President-elect Barack Obama's historic victory has SouthCoast residents talking — and one thing they agree on is that he has his work cut out for him.
"You've got so many things to fix, I don't know where to start," New Bedford resident Bob Castellina said. He said the high price of rent and food were concerns for young families just starting out, but he isn't sure Obama is the right person for the job.
"I wouldn't say he's got enough experience, really, to be a president," Mr. Castellina said.
Still, he is complacent with his situation.
"It don't make no difference to me now. I'm 81 years old, I got my pension and my Social Security; as long as they don't take that away, I don't care what they do."
The economy is also a top issue for Paige Gonsalves of New Bedford, who bemoaned high prices. "Money, gas, mortgage, rent ... that obviously needs to be changed. I think he could change that, change the way we live."
Dashai Bey agreed. "I like his views; to me he's more for the middle class and the lower class," the New Bedford resident said. "He's like Robin Hood: Steal from the rich and give to the poor."
As far as his ability to unite people, Marion resident Merry Conway was confident in president-elect Obama's ability.
"I think that actually what was said by some of the experts is that ... he is the bridge between Republicans and Democrats," she said.
"I think that he's thoughtful, I think that he ran a very good campaign, I think he stayed the course, and I think he believes in taking this country forward and I think he's smart enough to do it."
Ms. Conway added, "I think that health care is a major issue for this country, and I think bringing our young men and women home (from Iraq) is also very important."
Fairhaven resident Christopher Gross said that with patience, the country could see Obama bring partisan politicians together.
"I don't think anyone can unite the two parties, but I think he can accomplish some of it — maybe not until later in his term, but he can accomplish it," Mr. Gross said.
For him, Sen. Obama's energy policy makes him optimistic.
"I just think he wants to look more into alternative energy and I think that's the way to go," Mr. Gross said. "Personally, I don't like either (Sen. Obama or John McCain's) energy policies ... I think we should go all solar."
For her part, Joan Yotides said the way to solve America's problems is a team effort.
"No one person can solve the mess we're in now, and I really believe that I'm going to reserve judgment until I see who (president-elect Obama) places in his Cabinet," Ms. Yotides, a New Bedford resident, said.
"I hope that the Republicans and Democrats for once get together and solve what's important in this country and forget about party lines."
Her biggest concerns?
"Of course, the housing — people losing their homes is really bad," she said. "I'm kind of concerned about those people who can't afford to eat and pay for their medication and stuff."
Others don't know what the new president will bring when he is inaugurated Jan. 20, but they're optimistic.
"He could change everything, I guess," New Bedford resident Jairson Correia said. "I believe in Obama."
Added Ms. Gonsalves, "Like (Sen. Obama) said in his speech (Tuesday) night, anything can happen in America — and it did."

I came across an adorable post by Joanna Goddard who lives in Manhattan NY with her husband, Alex and toddler son, Toby. Like many of us city dwellers, she struggles with the fact that we do not have outdoor areas to hang out in after a long day.
This is a true case of making do with what you have and having fun with it! After a lightbulb moment, they sneak out to their fire escape space via the bedroom and they have made it into a ritual after their baby falls asleep.
Cute I say!
PS. I shall make better use of my decent balcony from today!

The use of tobacco products remains the number one cause of preventable death in the United States. Here in Philadelphia, more than 2,000 people die of tobacco-related illness every year. Pennsylvania's new $1-per-pack tax on cigarettes, along with the commonwealth's first taxes on e-cigarettes, roll-your-own, and smokeless tobacco, are important steps toward reversing this epidemic.

Change Your Stinking-Thinking!
Working out requires WORK…otherwise they'd call it something else. But in order to stick with your fitness goals, you need to have FUN too.
I've tried so many workout systems, and I can't say that I've ever seen the same results as I am seeing now with HIIT training and crossfitinspired workouts from Jess at Blondeponytail.com.
I am working harder, in a shorter period of time. Which makes me feel like I can do so much more than I have ever been able to before! With Tabata workouts (20 sec on, 10 sec rest, repeat for 8 rounds) I am doing 80 push ups in 4 minutes! and I can actually do it! I would have NEVER imagined I could do this, but it really does work! You never know your full potential until you try, and try hard! I can't wait to see how I grow on this journey. I want to eventually be able to do pull-ups and do real Crossfit workouts…I'm not there yet, but I know I will be! And if I can do it…SO CAN YOU! No matter what your fitness goals are, big or small, one thing I learned on my journey, is that you are so much more capable of success than you've ever imagined.
How has working out has affected me spiritually:
You may be thinking…Working out is not spiritual…your focusing on yourself, not God. But for me…it is a very sacred time. I thank God for my body…that I am fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Working out has brought me closer to God, it has changed my self esteem and turned my negative thoughts into positive ones.
Old thinking: My legs are fat, I am fat, My arms jiggle, I can't do this, I'm just not good enough…etc….I use to really beat myself up and it made working out miserable. I didn't respect myself and in result, working out was like a torture chamber for my body and mind.
New Thinking: My legs are strong and capable, my lungs are getting stronger, my blood is pumping and bringing health and life to my cells. Today I am strong, I am able. God is my strength.
I thank God for the time I have to workout, I know it is a luxury. I live in this moment, and in this moment I am blessed, because I have a body that God has made, and He will not let one hair fall from my head without his consent. I need God's strength and love, and by taking care of myself in this way, I feel God's love, mercy, and grace. Because my health is a gift from Him and I do not want to take it for granted.
There are so many who are battling illness, or are not capable of running. I run for them. I work out in honor of them. When I complain or grumble about my body, I stop. Because I know that I am blessed, and with that blessing comes responsibility…responsibility to honor God by being the best rate version of myself.

Hair, Massage, Beauty and Sugaring.
Marcos is a feature of Fornalutx, everyone knows him for his hairdressing and his presence. Originally from Brazil and then via places around the world before descending on the Soller Valley over ten years ago. Many people knock on his door and try to get the man out of the Valley. Josh Wood took him to London to his exclusive, high end world where famous names and faces rubbed shoulders with others who just wanted the best style and colour for their hair. Marcos just loves the Soller Valley and the eclectic people who seek him here. This is a hairdresser who makes time for his clients and gets into their very soul to understand what they really want their hair to do for them. His home base his here and these days' people make journeys to see him and coincide their holidays when they want revolutionary work done on their hair. The Atelier is Marcos' creation and it is a truly beautiful place to spend time nurturing the hair and the soul.
Kristien joined this wonderful place this year and has talents of her own. Originally from Belgium where she developed her Beautician training and her product understanding of revolutionary Sugaring. Kris comes from a background of teaching, dive instructing and travelling. She knew when she was deciding on where to live and work it had to inspire and call her and that's what the Soller Valley did. Her introduction to the high end world that Marcos inhabits was an irresistible invitation to this place in the universe.
Kris does not work with wax because she was part of the team that launched the best Sugaring techniques to Belgium which included training courses for the operatives. She believes passionately that hair removal created in this way is superior on every level. She also offers a full range of beauty treatments with specialities in Facials and Massage therapy.
Marcos and Kris are a great team in the Atelier of Fornalutx and they look forward to welcoming you.

OTTAWA — The Honourable Joe Oliver, Canada's Minister of Natural Resources, today issued a statement on the International Energy Agency's (IEA) first Energy Efficiency Market Report.
"Today's report once again emphasizes the important role that energy efficiency has to play in meeting global energy demand. I am pleased to see that the IEA has once again recognized Canada as a world leader in energy efficiency. The IEA's Energy Efficiency Market Report 2013 ranks Canada second, along with the United Kingdom, for its rate of energy efficiency improvement between 1990 and 2010. It also highlights Canada's successful energy efficiency programs, which provide consumers with greater market choices and help industry reduce costs and improve the bottom line.
"The report notes: 'Economy-wide efficiency improvements between 1990 and 2010 resulted in over CAD$32 billion of avoided energy expenditure in 2010, and saved an amount of energy equivalent to the total Canadian electricity production in 2010.' The report also states that 'despite a steady growth in energy consumption, Canada's energy efficiency has improved by 25.3 percent since 1990.'
"Canada is committed to improving energy efficiency to help Canadian consumers and businesses lower costs, save energy and protect the environment. The IEA recognizes that Canada is the first country to adopt ISO 50001 as the national standard for energy management systems for industry. The standard is saving businesses money and improving their ability to compete in global markets.
"Our government is helping put money back into the pockets of Canadian consumers by continually improving energy efficiency. Canada has invested substantially in energy efficiency initiatives — including minimum standards for over 40 products; regulations to improve fuel efficiency for passenger automobiles, light trucks and heavy-duty vehicles and engines; and more stringent energy codes for buildings.
"While Canada has consistently acted to improve efficiency and reduce emissions, we recognize that more needs to be done. Our government will continue these efforts by working closely with our partners to further improve energy efficiency standards."

Persistence is right - What will make this time any different then the other times? Well, you are not going to worry about the one pound you may or may not lose this week...you are going to work hard and make good choices and do what you KNOW is the right thing to do. You are going to be persistent and then look back a year or two from now and see the distance you've come. Then you will see how persistence pays off and that the rewards for it were way better than 1031 flavors of icecream!

Hey Girl!
This post is so on point.
Honestly, I was having one of those days myself earlier. My regular work out budy had to attend a meeting so she couldn't come with me to the gym.
This provided the perfect excuse for me NOT to go workout this afternoon. I had almost talked myself out of going. No one would know, but me! But persistence, made me get my booty up out of my chair and do what I know I needed to do!
Sigh...and I feel so much better having had my work out.
You are persistent and determined. You're already in the race...you're going to finish!
I'll check back with you soon!

Portfolio Report
Thursday, March 5, 1998
by Jeff Fischer (email@example.com)
ALEXANDRIA, VA (Mar. 5, 1998) -- For newcomers clicking in to see what happened -- "How could a portfolio lose nearly 7% in one day?" -- no, we're not idiots. This is a relatively new portfolio with a twenty-year goal that will be achieved by buying more stock every month ($100 worth) through commission-free dividend reinvestment plans of industry leaders.
The portfolio began last August and, as thorough as we are, we have analyzed only three industries so far and have begun to invest in only two, with Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) being the first. This history means that Intel is our largest position, at a whole 8 shares. Our cost-basis is $79 and change. With such a small portfolio, even a paper loss of $88 -- as we "lost" on Intel today -- looks large in percentage terms.
That explained, onward we can go.
Intel fell after announcing that revenue and net income would decline from the fourth quarter. At the beginning of the year Intel stated that this quarter would be, at best, a flat quarter, so the news isn't a giant surprise. In fact, I was surprised to see Intel's stock rise so strongly following the fourth quarter announcement -- though I shouldn't have been surprised. The market is less predictable than a large fish hooked on a fishing line off of the Florida Keys -- the fish will dive, soar, breach, zig-zag, bombshell the surface of the water, burst up into the sun -- and then finally your fishing line will break. Ooops.
The best thing about Drip investing is that you always invest more money on a regular basis. Our "line" never breaks. It's elastic and it stretches over twenty years.
So far we've bought the bulk of our Intel shares at $72 and $78. We now have the chance to buy more shares in the $70s, which, long-term in mind, is much more attractive than where we had to buy shares on Monday, which was around $89. So it's good to see many Fools on the Drip message board happy that Intel is down sharply.
Yes, we're building a base and lower prices are indeed better. But that doesn't mean, remember, that we just begin to buy anything at any price and hope that it eventually falls. We buy hoping that, from dollar one, we're getting decent value for our money. Sure, we'll be wrong time and again, but we're still buying stock at what we believe to be a good value, and that helps a Fool sleep better at night -- that and knowing that there is always next month to buy more stock. One beauty of dollar-cost averaging: We bought far fewer shares of Intel at higher prices, mathematically without even trying, and we'll buy more shares at lower prices while investing the same amount of money.
But why did Intel fall? For various reasons.
The first quarter is typically slow, but much more important is that the industry is going through changes. Many computer manufacturers that in the past carried high levels of inventory are now moving to a business model that more closely resembles that of Dell Computer (Nasdaq: DELL), meaning, the companies don't want to carry much inventory. So right now many of these firms are working to clear out inventory and in the meantime are ordering fewer parts. Intel said that OEMs -- computer manufacturers -- were slow to place new orders this quarter. Once these companies' inventories are cleared out, like a rubber-band, the computer orders should begin to flow again, and Intel should be able to grow revenue as the industry grows. Of course, an overall industry slowdown could be taking place, too. If so, that's not a company-specific problem and there's nothing that can be done about it.
That's not all that's happening at Intel, though.
Intel is selling chips at a much lower price than it has in the past, meaning lower margins and earnings (and revenue, of course). As Pentium II production increases over the year, and as Intel moves to 0.25 micron technology, this situation should improve. This doesn't mean that Intel is in the clear, though. The company's move into the sub-$1000 PC market will mean sales of yet more inexpensive chips, sporting yet lower margins. Gross margins of around 50% is what the company foresees. Overall, the year could be one of transition and it very well might not compare well to the earnings growth achieved last year. If anything, 1998 might result in a favorable earnings base (I mean -- a weak year) from which to grow off of going into 1999 and 2000, when Intel introduces more high end, high-margin product.
What does Drippy (our affectionate term for the Drip Port) do from here? Well, Fools, we just completed our three-week look at Intel and I feel pretty confident that we know the company and the challenges that it faces near-term. I thought that the stock was far from cheap above $90, as was written here, but I also know that an investor needs an outlook of at least five years (we have four times that), and that an investor can never know exactly what will happen next -- to a business or a stock.
This uncertainty is why simply sending small amounts of money whenever you can (ideally every single month) is best, and that's what we'll be doing here over the years -- sending small increments every month. I want little more than that once the Drip Portfolio has some balance.
So the recent "balance issue" arises again, and with Intel plummeting it brings with it more questions. Intel is too heavily weighted in the portfolio and it would take years for that to change unless we direct more funds elsewhere for a while. We'll decide by the end of next week where our $100 for April is going -- we might divide it up 70/30 or some such thing, if we don't send it all to JNJ. I'm considering some numbers for four months forward or so. Over the long-term it shouldn't make much difference at all, and as meaningless as it might be in the near-term, it's still worth our consideration. We have a few issues:
- The balance of the portfolio.
- The value that our dollar -- every one of them -- is getting, or perceived to be getting, depending on where we send it.
It's really pretty simple and it is destined to become much simpler as our positions even out and become larger in size. Our tiny monthly investments won't mean nearly as much a few years from now, and so simply sending the same amount to each company, in a balanced portfolio, will come naturally in time.
But in the near-term -- to avoid wild swings in the Port like the one that we had today, and also because J&J is as great a company as Intel, while it offers its own advantages -- we want to balance these two puppies out. I'm writing about it again only because I've received a lot of email about the issue. I hope it's more clear now. We're headed in the right direction: monthly, normal investments in each company unless something drastically changes. But for now, we're building, and we need an even foundation, much like a house does, before we can begin to build stories atop of it.
Meanwhile, more is written about Intel's first quarter warning in today's Lunchtime News. I don't have outrageously great expectations for the company near-term -- never have. But over the coming decades I certainly hope that Intel will take us down some interesting roads while on the highway to long-term success. For now, we're going to see earnings revisions downward, stock downgrades, and probably a lingering or downward moving stock. As Drip Investors who have a fairly good grasp of the long-term possibilities, this is as good a time as any to continue to send the company money every month -- and be patient.
For more discussion, please visit the Drip message boards -- linked in the top right of this page. Also, share your thoughts on the "balancing" issue if you wish. Fool on!
--Jeff Fischer

Day E…Fuck I have no idea
Constant noises.
I've been hearing them moving through the house.
Somehow they got in.
No worry, I'm safe in here.
Ran out of food.
Starting to take its toll.
I wonder if this was their plan all along.
I'm not crazy
I know they're out there.
I doubt I still have a job
Still no sleep
Started to doze off yesterday…or was it the day before?
I taped my eyelids up today to keep that from happening again.
It hurts like hell, but now they can't catch me off guard.
Fuck I've got to charge my phone in case I need help…

I was really excited to come across your posting.I am descended from James (I didn't know his middle name was Barton) Adair and Elizabeth Newlin.My grandfather is Barton Sherman Adair - his father was Orien Barton Adair who was Stephen A. Douglas Adair's son.By my records, Stephen A. Douglas Adair was James and Elizabeth's 7th child.Is your ancestor Jane Adeline?I have 10 children listed but none born the year that you list for Adeline's birth.(Jane A. is shown as being born in 1854)I show their first child being born 1850 - Jesse who married Louise Kendall in 1875.Curious, no?I'd like to share info., if you're at all interested.
Does anybody have additional info on Robert F. Adair or Margaret Speer?
Also, do you know if all these children became RLDS?

Spring break is really hard to translate into ermagerd. Just saying.
So hai.
Well, obviously it's spring break. End of, actually. Been way super busy enjoying in southbeach.
Haha I'm just kidding. I'm sitting in my parents' empty house with their dogs who bark at nothing all by myself while they're in Dallas with my little sister for a singing thing.
It's been oddly stressful.
Of course, this was the week I decided my lack of watching Dr. Who needed to be amended immediately and have gone on hours long binges for the past three days. So them barking at nothing has been mildly terrifying, even though this is fairly typical for them.
Stupid dogs.
However, their use in alerting me to the potential of incoming intruders is indispensable, and thusly I have decided that acquiring an alert animal of my own when I quit my current domicile will be a good move.
And I will train the damn animal to wake me up at a perfectly normal hour that isn't 3:30 in the goddamn morning EVERY SINGLE MORNING.
I shout at them for three hours before I take them out. They've been doing wonderful jobs each of them holding it in, so it's not like they can't wait, they're just really super impatient. I'm surprised Mom sleeps as long as she does with them barking at the top of the stairs in that high pitched "Okay time to go outside now" squeaky bark that they do. And by they I mostly mean the geriatric one who does have a history of not being able to control all of her bladder all of the time, though I have yet to notice this. She hasn't leaked before I've taken her out, despite her continuous barking from three thirty until I take them out at the still ungodly hour of six and there haven't been any other accidents to speak of this week and I'm likely jinxing myself but frankly I was expecting a clean up on isle home every single day, so I'll be honest, I'm not terribly worried.
Mom's going to hate me after this weekend though because they're going to go out at roughly 3:30 when I get up for work, and then she'll see.
Oh she'll see.
Although likely part of this is that she can't hear them all the way on the other end of the house in the basement, which is slightly unfair, and I don't know how my sister sleeps through it, although I suppose she's used to it by now, and mostly blocks it out, but seriously.
Where was I? Oh yes, so I might get an alert animal of my own at some point. I'd really rather not have a dog as they're far more needy than cats, but cats don't care, and likely would just let a potential murder or Weeping Angel waltz right in.
Unless Weeping Angels can't move if ANYTHING is staring at them, because then the cat would be completely invaluable, because I don't know if you know this but cats are master stare-ers...Starers? They look at things for a very long time without blinking in a highly proficient manner.
This requires more research, and I'm going to have to start looking at apartments soon. Buh.
On the one side, I won't technically HAVE to stay where I am right now, since, you know, I won't need close proximity to any sort of schooling type area and could potentially move closer to work. Which might be okay in the long run, and might actually save me money and...Ugh, fine. I'll look around and hope for the best.
But it means socializiiiii~iiiing. And I don't wannnaaaaaaaa.
Until Next Time, Dear Readers,

To be launched in the financial year of 2018-19.
A Winner from Honda.
The most anticipated and the star attracter at the Auto Expo 2018 is the India bound Honda Civic which is now confirmed for India launch.
The return of the Civic could potentially make Honda the segment leader once again. Finally, City customers will have an upgrade option in the Honda family that was missing for over half a decade.
Honda Civic's aggressive design and feature list should ensure that the new sedan will be a hit in India when it returns next year.

This coming Sunday, the 22nd of April, is going to be Earth day. You are forgiven if you didn't know about it until now, as it's not well publicised here at home. I personally think it should have been a made a mainstream media priority because that's what people respond to. Though I believe that the pro-Earth fight should be a daily undertaking, I will not argue the effectiveness of annual events, but it doesn't mean much when people don't know about the day.
There are a few activities that myself and a couple of my friends and community members have planned in our area — we are doing a bit of a Earth month thing instead of just an Earth day in conjunction with the local primary school. We have an activity planned for every weekend.
Last weekend we harvested the last of the summer vegetables from the school's garden and had the children deliver them to a couple of homes that are headed up by the elderly. There's nothing that is asEarth-friendly (in my book) as giving and encouraging the act in young people. That is where everything begins, when you teach a person at a young age to care about those around her, to do things that benefit other people. It becomes easy for those children (and the adults they grow into) to care about the environment, animals and doing the right thing.
Looking at the Earth day website I found quite a few already planned events for Sunday. Go here to view them and to see if there are any that are near your area. Ask around in the community, phone the local ward office or visit you town's website or online bulletin board to find out if there are events planned for your town.
In the meantime, here are a few tips on what you can do daily and make every single day Earth day:
- Take a quick shower
- Walk whenever you can
- Refuse plastic, buy reusable bags.
- Refuse plastic use glass or cans
- Buy cloth dish towels instead of paper towels
- Educate someone (you teaching another person about recycling, saving water etc will do a lot for the movement.)
