S is for Scope
Much like doctors and therapists, doulas have a scope of practice that needs to be respected in order to keep all clients safe and happy. Unfortunately, the doula field isn't quite regulated yet to find out if a doula is acting as a professional or not. This causes much of the population to be confused about what a doula actually does, and often gets us confused with midwives.
When doulas don't act in scope, it can be dangerous for all parties involved. A doula acting in scope always has a great list of referrals for things that are not quite within our reach, and we at the NY Baby Co. are always happy to give that to you! But how would you know if a doula is acting in scope or not? Today, we want to give you a straightforward look at exactly what is in scope and out of scope for a doula.
A doula acting in scope always…
A doula acting out of scope will…
We highly encourage all who are looking into hiring a doula to check and double check to make sure the doula they are hiring is a professional acting in scope, as all families deserve the BEST, and we want you to have the tools to get there. We assure you that NY Baby Co. is solely comprised of nonjudgmental, professional doulas who always act in scope. Give us a call today at 518-712-9767 to find out more information or set up a consultation!
R is for Ravenous
What is it that makes us so ravenous post baby? Maybe it's the extra calories we need for breastfeeding. Maybe it's the sleep deprivation lowering our energy and causing us to crave carbs. Maybe it's that caring for a baby doesn't leave us much time to sit down and we often wait until we are starving to eat!
No matter what the reason, we can all admit that caring for a baby is exhausting! Today on the blog, we have compiled a list of quick grab and go snacks you can keep in the fridge while caring for baby to get you the macros you need to get yourself through the day!
Does it still feel impossible to have snacks on the go? Do you feel a little like you're drowning as far as staying on top of your own self nourishment? Give us a call at 518-712-9767 so we can talk about scheduling a shift where a postpartum doula can custom prep your snacks just for you!
Q is for Quick
Oftentimes, when talking about labor we recognize the norm of a long labor. But we don't always realize that there is another situation in which a baby comes quickly. This instance is known as precipitous birth.
Precipitous birth is defined as the birth of a baby within three to five hours (or less) from the start of contractions. While this may sound like a dream birth to some, it can often be quite terrifying, as contractions are usually more intense and efficient and many parents do not make it to the hospital in time. It is also a difficult time for processing, as parents often can't make sense of what happened and go into a state of shock, prolonging recovery and affecting emotional well being.
This also calls into question whether or not your doula may make it to you. While it doesn't happen often, sometimes we do not make it in time for a precipitous birth, as we do require a two-hour window to get to the client from the time we are called to their birth.
What happens if my doula doesn't make it?
If your doula does not arrive to you in time for the birth of your baby, it can be unsettling, but rest assured there is still a lot we can do for you. Here are a few:
While there isn't really anything a doula can do to lessen the possibility of this outcome, it is best to let your doula know if you have experienced precipitous birth in the past, so that we can prepare for the possibility. This is also why we encourage communication with us anytime there is a development or change, so we can talk about what time would be best to come and support you. The bottom line is, with precipitous birth, unpredictability can often take over, but no matter how it turns out, we are here to support you and process with you however you need.
P is for Postpartum Doula
A day in the life of a postpartum doula…
We are often lumped in with nannies or cleaning services, but the support we give extends far beyond that, as does our training. We support families during the first year, and even sometimes more than that! It all depends on each family's individual needs.
Our day starts as soon as we walk into your house. YOU are our first priority. What are the immediate needs? Have you had breakfast? Do you need to rest? Are you feeding your baby okay, or do you need some gentle assistance and guidance? Oftentimes, clients greet us with a list of things they want us to take care of, as soon as we walk in the door, and we gladly check everything off! But the bottom line is, postpartum support never has a wrong appearance…we are there to support the needs of our clients, and these needs change minute to minute.
As we tackle items on the list, they may include light meal prep, doing dishes, storing breast milk, organizing toys, doing laundry or even running errands. Oftentimes while doing things around the house we are followed by curious older siblings, who are looking for someone to talk to them and pay attention to them, and this is one of the parts of our job we love to do!
Sometimes, we may feed baby or put baby to sleep. Many parents want us only to tend to baby as their main goal is rest. Sometimes, we even wear baby (with gear provided by the clients) while accomplishing chores on the list. We are the ultimate multitaskers.
We also make it a goal to sit talk with the parents while we are in the home. We find out how postpartum life is going, and gauge if there may be anything going on in the house that could benefit from resources or referrals. There are many experts in the area we network with if a situation is out of our scope of practice. However, a huge part of having a newborn can often be isolation, so sometimes our job is simply keeping parents company. Often times this can include talking about birth stories, validating a decision a parent is unsure about or knowing when a recovery related issue may need to be assessed by a care provider.
In addition to daytime shifts, postpartum doulas are commonly being hired for night shifts. While chores don't usually get done during this time, it can be helpful to give parents a full night's rest without worrying. Babies are able to be cared for in the manner that the parents wish, and we are trained to tend to all philosophies. Oftentimes, we come in to get babies on a schedule, but we are also trained to soothe babies back to sleep and work with their unique schedules. In the instance of breastfeeding moms who don't wish to pump, we can even bring baby in to nurse, and then leave the room, saving mom the added stress of putting baby back to sleep after the feeding. If timing allows, we may even be able to prepare coffee or breakfast in the morning before we slip out the door!
Does this sound like a dream in the making? Call the NY Baby Co. at 518-712-9767 today to request more information or request a consultation for postpartum care.
O is for Outcomes
Do doulas affect birth outcomes?
Our short answer is NO, but hear us out!
For years, newspapers and blogs have broadcasted that hiring a doula can make you less likely to require pain medication, lower your chance of a cesarean birth and lower your risk of postpartum depression. We don't want to negate anyone's experiences, but we want to make it clear that doulas do not have anything to do with outcomes.
While it is our goal to support our clients while helping them to the birth they want, we do recognize that there are road bumps that can derail this from happening, and our main goal is to make sure that our client is aware of the process, supported and as comfortable as possible.
There are so many factors
The truth is, one human being, even with sufficient training, cannot affect a birth outcome. Perhaps the support we provided did help a client hang on a little longer before getting pain medication, and it is highly possible that our presence may have lessened the stress of being a postpartum parent, and prevented a client from feeling depressed. However, a doula is not a guarantee to make sure these things don't happen, and even if these things do happen, we are trained and have a huge desire to support our clients!
In fact, sometimes our clients want these things to happen. Many of our clients go into their births knowing that they want pain medication or have planned a cesarean. We don't affect outcomes here, because we support ALL of our clients' choices without question. Our clients will always have the last word and the final decision, along with their provider when it comes to their birth.
Sometimes special situations, variations of normal and risk factors arise that make certain outcomes not possible. We aren't trained to change that outcome…no one can! We are however trained to support every family through whatever turns their birthing and postpartum periods may take.
We specialize in ALL outcomes
Much like we can't control the weather, we can't control the road bumps that arise in the birth and postpartum period…every experience is different! We are trained to understand that and work with any outcome!
The NY Baby Co. does not keep track of our clients' birth outcomes. This is because support is our main goal and we believe that every client's birth outcome is worthy of support. No matter what outcome a client finds themselves in, we will always be ready to hear, attune and validate. We will always stand behind the fact that we give 100% to all of our clients, regardless of outcome.
N is for Needs
Are you finding it difficult to get your needs met as a parent? You are absolutely not alone! This is a common part of parenting, and especially for those who are not so willing to admit they need help in a society where do-it- yourself is still in (Why is that, anyway?) it can be a hard thing to put into words exactly what you need when someone asks you if you need help.
"Just let me know if I can help with anything."
When our friends offer this phrase, we should absolutely accept their offer! Sometimes, people don't know exactly how to help, and are looking for any way. Verbalizing our needs can be helpful to make sure people are truly helping us in the way we need. While it can be hard, as their offer is such a blanket statement, we highly encourage you to accept! Today, we have compiled a list of things to ask for help with, so you don't have to think about it.
Of course, this is just our list, and if there's anything else that you think to add, by all means, do it! And when your postpartum doula is over for a shift, rest assured that they will find plenty to add without you even having to say a word, thanks to good old attunement.
M is for Mastitis
Ugh…we said it! The dirty M word. The thing no mother ever wants to experience.
Reality check? Mastitis does happen to breastfeeding moms, and is most common during the first month of breastfeeding, but can happen at any time during the breastfeeding journey. The two main causes of mastitis are clogged ducts and bacteria entering the breast due to cracks and cuts.
What are the Symptoms of Mastitis?
It is typical that the flu-like symptoms will come on first, and then the actual breast symptoms will follow. However, mastitis makes it very difficult to care for a baby, so it is best to call your provider, as antibiotics are often necessary. There are many antibiotics that will be safe to take while breastfeeding, and there is no need to stop breastfeeding during mastitis, as it actually will help in your recovery. Eating more cultured yogurt or drinking kombucha while on the antibiotics will be a great way to prevent thrush, a yeast infection of the nipple or breast.
Ways to Prevent Mastitis
Upon recovery from mastitis, you may notice that baby is fussier at the breast. This can be due to antibiotics, but can also be because milk supply can lower at first, as the infection is healing and clogs are opening back up again. Continued nursing should allow this to be overcome in no time. If there are any further concerns, a call to your provider or an IBCLC is suggested.
L is for Labor Doula
A day in the life of a labor doula…it's so far beyond hip squeezes and water fetching!
It's not always a day. Sometimes it's a night. Sometimes it's our anniversary, or a child's birthday. We have to say no to faraway trips, or drinks with friends. We never know when we are going to get that call, but we are always prepared for it.
Then, that day comes…and it's not always a day. Sometimes it's midnight, thirty minutes after we fell asleep for the night, when a client decides they need us sooner than they thought. Regardless, we are prepared. We grab our packed bag and grab five dollars for Starbucks…the little things fuel us during a long process!
We get into our car and feel thankful the big snow storm held off. We rejoice finding a parking spot, and pace ourselves as we walk into the hospital ready to go, regardless of what was going on in our lives. The pause button is hit on our family as we prepare to support yours, and we wouldn't have it any other way as you deserve our complete energy and commitment.
We don't know what we are going to find behind the door of that labor and delivery room, but we are prepared. Sometimes, parents appear calm and ready. Sometimes, we are walking into a situation that was not ideal for the client. Sometimes, we walk into chaos. We attune and adjust, with our hands and our hearts.
Sometimes the work is easy and flawless. Sometimes it is difficult. Every birth is different and support looks different for everyone. Sometimes, it's being the presence to tell a father he can go to the cafeteria and recharge with food and rest. Sometimes, it's just sitting in the room and holding space while a client gets rest after a long awaited epidural. Sometimes, we are face to face with a client who swears they can't do this, encouraging them that they are doing it and they will do it. Sometimes, we are sitting with a client whose birth plan has become completely derailed, supporting them and talking to them as they cry for their baby, who is in the NICU, knowing that while we can't bring their baby, we can stay with them so they aren't alone.
When it is mutually decided that the family has settled in after the birth and is ready to bond alone, we leave the hospital. We have seen huge things, we have witnessed life, and supported all the people involved. We take the situation, put it in our bag along with everything else, and walk out into our car. Slowly, the things we need to do with our family come flooding back, but first, we look at our needs. Sometimes we have only spent two hours at the hospital, but sometimes we have spent twenty-four.
We may stop at our favorite sushi place on the way home, as a well deserved treat. We walk in the door to our two energetic children who have been waiting for us to come home, so excited to play with us and show us their new game. We sit down with them for a good twenty minutes, and then our partner turns to us and urges us to go eat and rest. It's then in our room that we process. We may call a fellow doula to rejoice, cry on a partner's shoulder or just take some deep breaths as we add another job well done to our journey of supporting clients, and prepare to receive the next call…
K is for Kate
Today on the blog, we are indulging in the celebrity world as we take an imaginary babymoon over to the United Kingdom and visit the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton. Kate has earned a lot of media attention from the very start, but has also been a fabulous role model for her family, keeping their lives as normal as possible throughout all the hype, and we can all respect her for that!
Kate recently gave birth to her third child, a boy named Louis, on the 26 th of April. As usual she met us on the front steps of the Lindo wing to dazzle and charm us. A lot of jaws dropped and criticisms spewed as the duchess stood in high heels and perfect hair and makeup only seven hours after giving birth. While this isn't completely realistic, as not all of us have our own hair and makeup crew, the duchess has been a fabulous icon for new parents.
Kate Middleton is our definition of a fierce parent. She has chosen the same care providers for each birth she has had, as she knows what she wants and can trust in the team she has if a birth does not go quite as planned. She respects tradition, but still has no problem setting boundaries so her family can have a normal life. She also makes decisions as they are right for her family without care for anyone else's thoughts, and we even read lately that she recycled her daughter's old baby outfit for Prince Louis' first official photos. We also cheer her on for seemingly having so much support in her life and seemingly having such a grasp on the needs of her and her family. Way to go, Kate!
However, the duchess doesn't seemingly have the perfect fairytale story. The media loves to portray things in a way that grab our attention, and we know that this past pregnancy the news came out a little earlier than the duchess wanted due to her severe morning sickness, also known as hyperemesis gravidarum. While we deeply feel for Kate, as we know this condition is never easy, it is a display to us of her humanness. No matter who we are looking at, every parent struggles along the way, and even in the light of the media, Kate handled her struggles with grace and overcame them. As doulas, we can understand the recognition this deserves, as we pride ourselves on getting to play the part of the
support person and watch parents do this every day.
And so our message today to our readers and parents out there is this: While we can't grant you the title of duchess or duke, we hope you can knight yourself with the support you deserve and march to the beat that is right for you and your baby, just like one of our favorite parenting icons!
J is for Judgment
It's everywhere these days. No matter what we do in our lives, we are bound to be judged. Sometimes the judgment is blatant criticism. Other times it's a passive aggressive "Well I personally wouldn't ____ because ______." But no matter what, there is almost no denying that parents are one of the most common victims to judgment nowadays.
Breast-feeding, bottle-feeding, medicated birth, unmedicated birth, whether to circumcise or not, whether to let baby make their own schedule or sleep train. As if it isn't hard enough to come up with a decision we feel comfortable with, we now have the added layer of worrying about what other people are going to say.
We hate judgment....it feels downright awful to be judged. Why is this? Because when another person judges us, it causes us to feel isolated. As human beings, we crave support and acceptance. However, sometimes we may also catch ourselves easily judging others. Sometimes we really do mean well, and it just comes out the wrong way. But that doesn't excuse it, and becoming nonjudgmental is something we can all strive to do in our everyday lives. This is important because when we free ourselves of judging others, we also open up space for people to come in who will respect us and not judge in return.
So how do we go about this? Here are four fool-proof steps to make your life a little more positive!
Stop using the word "should."
It seems like such a harmless word, right? But the truth is, when we tell someone what they should do, we are isolating one decision as better than the rest. We are asserting ourselves as more capable and knowledgeable, and in turn, telling people what to do with their lives. If a friend asks for some advice, by all means, throw out some options, but the word "should" immediately locks the other person into the judgment dungeon, and none of us wants to be there!
Acknowledge your inner judgment demon.
Have you ever caught yourself offering someone nonjudgmental support and being kind, but then going home and venting to another person because the voice in your head tells you that their decision is just wrong? It's totally okay! The judgment demon is a powerful one. It is so important to become aware of this demon. You may never be able to get rid of this inner voice, but being able to label your inner thoughts as judgments will often help them stay on the inside, which is where we want them to remain.
Realize that every life is different.
So you've become aware of your judgment demon. The next step? Evict that tenant! He's taking up space in your head and not paying rent. When we become aware that our thoughts are in fact judgments, we can dismiss them very easily. When we see the need for someone doing something differently than us, and develop empathy, it can often be helpful in realizing that sometimes other lifestyles just call for different choices. We then realize, that others aren't making decisions to hurt themselves, they are simply doing what was best for them at that given time in their lives. After thinking about it, we can realize that people don't want to do things that are "wrong." It is all about perception, and especially as parents, we should never have to justify why we do what we do.
Free yourself out of the bubble.
After you have accomplished these first three steps, you will come to realize that it actually feels nice to not judge anyone. You can use that space in your brain to think about something else. The amount of friends that can be made is endless, because suddenly, what others do with their lives doesn't matter quite as much as what kind of people they are and how they make you feel. The judgment bubble is a difficult one to burst out of, but those of us in recovery, have not looked back. The world is so much brighter on the outside, where we don't have to put seriously thought into the fact that others "should" be doing the same as us. Even moreso, we can even agree with differing opinions and be happy the others are happy without having to debate or fact-bomb.
Looking for some nonjudgmental support in your life? The birth and postpartum period is the perfect time for this! Give us a call at 518-712-9767 for your free consultation, where you can see just how well we can support you and your family through a period of time where absolutely no one should be judging anyone!

Recently I've started my week off by publicly announcing one area of my life that I'm going to focus on improving, the tough parts that sometimes seem pointless. In this path of making myself a better person, one week I chose to not let anything bother me. Meaning I would pay attention to the situations within my control, the way in which I would react to the forces outside of my control. A task that at the end of the week shed a really bright light on who I've come to view myself as.
It was a week filled with the usual ups and downs, except this time my goal was to seek out the positive no matter how hard it would be or how much pain it would put me through. Literally turning the other cheek is some tough stuff, and it broke me down and exposed my heavily guarded emotions to the world. But in the end it filled me with a peace and confidence that has often escaped my grasp. The experience showed me who I really am.
The details are now foggy, but one particular moment stands out every time I reflect on the things I've learned about why I exist. It was a tweet by Alejandro Reyes that included a quote by André Gide.
It was then it hit me. Everyday a multitude of people will barrage you with their attempts at making you more like them, they will turn on you the moment that you make the choice to do you, because then they've lost control and you've become unpredictable and this makes them uncomfortable. What matters in the midst of it all is that you remain true to who you are. Each and everyone of us will answer for how well we were stewards of our lives. Each wasted opportunity to create more good is held against us. Our silence in the presence of injustice is a vote cast for that injustice to continue. It highlights who we really are and determines who we will be.
I began to realize that the time of when my moment will arrive is completely up to me and no one else. Absolutely no one can hold me or you down unless we let them. No matter what problem we may face there is more than one solution present to resolve it. Violence isn't an answer that will ever yield a positive result and it never will become the best solution to anything that seeks to grow and flourish. Much like a rose, our lives will have thorns, but it is from within this pain does beauty truly appear. The situations we allow us to weigh us down aren't a curse but a beautiful process that constantly refines us to be more than average. It doesn't matter if only one person says thank you for all your hard work, the masses will never understand but you will, because now you have one more person on your side than before. Now just imagine what happens when two more join the ranks of your combined effort? Before you know it the numbers have multiplied and a goal of more good accomplished even just for a moment.
Without the weight of trying to be loved for being a person you are not allows you to focus more energy on the things that matter.
Letting nothing bother you might not be the place to start, but start somewhere. Stop letting others determine what you can accomplish. They don't know your life, they don't understand that burning passion you bury within just because someone once told you that your idea was stupid, and they will never understand the nights you cried yourself to sleep even though everything is going good. Only you do and only you can determine whether or not you're going to stick around in the same situation or find some guts and go for the glory. That pain and fear isn't supposed to stop you. Its there to make you stronger, but only if you'll let it and in the process learn to let it go.
Not letting anything bother me taught me to not be afraid of the unknown, to not let the punches of life keep me down. That I am fully capable of doing great things, that those around me are fighting a similar battle and are only reacting the best way they know how. But we know better, so why aren't we doing better? Why have we settled for average? Why are we so selfish and quick to judge?
Standing up for something isn't easy, but the rewards are great. To be loved for who you truly are is what truly living is about. People will hate, but let that just be fuel for your fire of success.
The next time you want to give someone a good piece of your mind, take a step back and walk away. Your peace of mind is worth more than arguing with stupidity. The world needs you to be the weight that balances the bad, the rose that shines through the thorns.
Will you answer the call?

The power of industry experience is perspective - perspective we bring to help you best leverage your own capabilities and resources.
Cyber resilience is the ability to withstand the ramifications of a significant operational disruption resulting from a cyber intrusion or attack, while continuing the operation of essential processes and services, and rapid recovery of business activities to an acceptable level.
The organisation and structure of the different aspects of cyber resilience, requires the integration of very different components. In their own right, each of the functions of defending against a cyber intrusion are complex from identification through defence & response and to recovery. Some functions are more technology-heavy, some more procedure-centric, and some are very reliant on human skills.
The BDO provides a range of planning, design, architectural, and testing services for critical in-house functions of a Cyber Defence/Security Operations Centre, as well as the processes, procedures and training associated with it.
Designing solutions for monitoring the internal and external environment, detecting weaknesses, threats and incident, using advanced capabilities such as pattern recognition, anomaly detection, and big data analysis. Prioritization of incidents considering their level of risk and the potential damage, as a basis for operative decisions making;
The Cyber Security Operations Centre [CSOC] is the heart of the security operations of an organization and houses the most important resilience 'function', enabling early detection and effective incident management for quick containment and recovery. BDO has developed a unique and proven methodology for building CSOCs for state and enterprise organizations. BDO can help public and private sector organisations to establish Cyber Emergency Response Team [CERT] / Cyber Incident Response Team [CIRT] functionality for national or industry levels, integrating best or bread intelligence and monitoring solutions.
Business Continuity Planning
We'll examine your most critical business processes and functions, determine what resources are needed–including premises, people, suppliers and technology. We will identify your inherent and residual risk that will lead to a specific risk management plan enabling you mitigate any of the identified risk thus increasing your business resiliency. We'll develop a disciplined, documented over-arching framework to engage your board-level executives, equip your teams to recognize threats to your business, and empower them to take action before incidents escalate into major disruptions. BDO provides business continuity services tailored to your business needs.
Preparing a multi-disciplinary response to a cyber-attack, including procedures for business operations, corporate communications, media affairs, public relations, legal, marketing, law enforcement, and information technology. Preparing 'playbooks' to be followed for different scenarios and governance & management functions to maintaining current-cy.
Conducting an assessment of resilience incorporates a static and dynamic approach to evaluating incident response capabilities, maturity, and management & oversight functions within resilience programs. This typically combines, our proprietary approach to maturity assessments, using a war games methodology and SOC testing to examine technology, procedures, playbooks, skills, and organizational aspects.

But, yesterday here at work there was a devastating fire just a couple of doors down Mission street. I get in here at about 6:15/6:30 am...I like to start early and nobody else gets in until about 9 so I have lots of quiet time to do what needs to get done without interruption. Well, when I got in I noticed a fire truck down the street putting out a fire and did not think much about it as that happens all the time south of market.
At 9:30 when I was walking back from the post office I could see numerous fire trucks, hook and ladders and firemen pouring water onto and the same building. I could even see huge flames pouring out of where the roof should have been. At 12 pm I walked out to go to lunch...by this time Mission street had been blocked off at 8th and 7th streets and not only where they still pouring water into the building by also foam. I went to my usual Pizza place on the corner of 7th and mission after cutting across the street. I ate my little piece of sausage, peperoni and mushroom pizza slice, it was the special of the day. I usually sit there and read until 1:00 pm but yesterday I just couldn't stand the smoke pouring down the street which in turn was seeping into the Pizza Place. I then tried to walk back to work and the police would not let anyone pass back up Mission so I had to walk up to Market street down to 8th and then back to Mission to get back to work.
This morning Mission Street is still blocked off and there is still and fire truck with extended ladder at the building with firemen walking around.
Here are some snaps from about 12:45 pm yesterday.
This is looking east towards 7th street, you can see all the trucks and the smoke.
You can see the smoke pouring out of the now roofless building.
This is not as dramatic as it was but smoke and flames where just puring out of these windows.
This is looking east down Mission showing the sidewalk that I take everyday that is impassable due to the mountain of foam and waves of water just cascading out of the building.
I was asked by Juliane to post of snap of Serenity package and found it last night, so here you go Juliane....
Sorry it is so dark.
Thanks for stopping by!!
Take care,

The Babri mosque dates back nearly 500 years when it was built in Ayodhya by Mir Baqi, a commander of the first Mughal emperor Babur, in 1528. Hence the mosque's name, Babri Masjid.
Ram Janmabhoomi i.e.Rama's birthplace is the name given to the site that is believed to be the birthplace of Lord Rama, the 7th avatar of the Hindu deity Vishnu.The Ramayana states that the location of Rama's birthplace is on the banks of the Sarayu river in the city of Ayodhya.
A section of Hindus claim that the exact site of Rama's birthplace is where the Babri Masjid once stood in the present-day Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh.
According to this theory, the Mughals demolished a Hindu shrine that marked the spot, and constructed a mosque in its place. People opposed to this theory state that such claims arose only in the 18th century, and that there is no evidence for the spot being the birthplace of Rama.
2015: The VHP announces a nationwide drive to collect stones for the construction of the Ram Mandir. Six months later, in December, two trucks of stones arrive at the disputed site. Mahant Nritya Gopal Das claims there is a green signal from the Modi government that the temple will be built now. The Uttar Pradesh government led by Akhilesh Yadav says it will not allow the arrival of the stones in Ayodhya for the construction of the Ram Mandir.

It was a U.K. trending topic on Twitter for most of yesterday (Thursday) and continues to be a talking point – a supposed reunion of Manchester indie behemoths, The Smiths.
The rumours have since been strenuously denied by two of its former members, Johnny Marr and Mike Joyce, but one person in particular has remained tight-lipped – the normally outspoken frontman, Morrissey. Marr was quick to quash rumours, taking to his Facebook page to write that the rumours were "…untrue. It's not happening". Joyce quickly followed, telling The Daily Mirror: "It's not happening folks, as far as I know – which could be a good thing,"
Currently on a tour of Asia, there has been no indication as to whether Morrissey has even heard the rumours about his former band. Speaking in 2006, the singer was interviewed by Uncut and emphatically stated:
"I would rather eat my own testicles than reform The Smiths, and that's saying something for a vegetarian…"
Watch a live video of The Smiths performing 'This Charming Man' in their 80s glory, below:

1. History
Created from the rape of Colibri Soul by Vitium Lykoi, Jael and his two siblings, Halo and Enigma lived with their mother until they were four months old. At this time, their father, whom had been stalking them for the past few months, attacked her, raped her again, and stole her children away from her. He taught them corrupted details about their family, his own bloodline, and attempted to justify his actions against their mother by telling them because she was a wolf, she deserved all that she received. After four months of this, they went off to go and find Inferni and their father's family. Halo and Enigma abandon Jael for his wolfish appearance and obvious skepticism about their father's beliefs.
Alone, he was taken in by an elderly wolf whom became a mentor of sort to Jael during their time together. He died by Jael's own hand, an action that haunts the wolf to this day, and finally trailed after his siblings toward Inferni—the last place he could think of to go. At the borders he was accepted into the coyote clan, but was to quickly learn Vitium was actually a traitor and had been exiled from the clan, conveniently leaving this part out when he'd told his offspring about Inferni.
Jael never quite settled into Inferni. He was more wolf than anything else, and he openly questioned the shallow hatred between species. It wasn't long before he drifted off. Jael had been a freethinker from birth, and he sought knowledge and diverse experiences. The violence of his youth had disgusted him, and he sought peace and happiness. He spent the next few years wandering, never settling down anywhere. He made friends as he went, and changed plans on a whim.

3. Appearance
He's tall and lean. Wolfish in appearance, his fur is a uniform white, marred only by the faintest, barely visible hints of pale ash along the tips of the hair on his back and neck. His eyes are the most startling attribute of his appearance—a perfect inferno, holding all shades ranging from a sharp-lemon yellow to dark, fiery orange. However, given the perfect lighting situations they can change to a deep reddish-hue, hinting at the "flawed" crimson eyes of his father's father's bloodline.

A few draw on the poetry of John Keats and W.B. Yeats, while another evokes a distinct Middle Eastern flavour. In Lost Souls the songs all come together to create an artistically diverse and timely collection.
Loreena McKennitt's eclectic Celtic blend of pop, folk and world music has sold over 14 million albums worldwide. Her recordings have achieved Gold, Platinum, and multi-Platinum status in 15 countries on four continents. She has twice been nominated for a Grammy Award and has won two Juno Awards, as well as a Billboard International Achievement Award.
She has performed in some of the world's most-respected and historic concert venues, from Carnegie Hall to the famous Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain and for dignitaries including Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and numerous heads of state.

I have discussed the many advantages and a few disadvantages of options spread trading in a series of articles on . At this point, the reader might contemplate whether to get involved in options spread trading. The risks of an option being exercised, the additional commission expense or the additional complexity might not be worth for some investors.
I have traded options, stocks, and commodities for nearly two decades. Yet, I was still hesitant to enter options spread trading for a good part of my career. Part of the reason for my hesitance was the high commission structure that used to be prevalent in the options marketplace. However, high commissions are no longer a factor.
The real reason why I stayed away from option spread trading was that I thought options spread trading was more complicated than I wanted to manage. I was also very hesitant to expose myself to risk associated with selling calls or puts. In some cases, the downside might be virtually unlimited or I might be assigned or have an option exercised.
After studying options extensively, I got my feet wet on the long side and then on the short side. I soon realized that I was exposing myself to continued risk by staying away from spread trading. Engaging in only basic option trading, I continuously risked lower-probability profit trades without proper hedging. I was essentially forced into spread trading to manage risk.
Taking the plunge into option trading
Once I got involved and learned the ropes of spread trading, I discovered that I did not need to master every type of spread trade. Some option spread strategies are incredibly complicated and are useful only if you have exhausted all alternative investing strategies. I trade options to make a good, consistent return on trading investments month after month, year after year, decade after decade. Options spread trading is one of the best vehicles for doing just that.
I learned that to be a strong options trader, I needed only the basic strategies in my options trading toolkit. All I needed were the basic strategies for bullish, bearish and neutral positions on options. Once you master the basic strategies and learn the essential terminology, you can adapt to all other varieties of options strategies with ease.
There are many option trading strategies and many different names for those strategies. However, I will show you the basic strategies that a novice spread trader needs to handle virtually any kind of market. I will examine a few strategies in detail. Once you understand those strategies, you can apply the same basic principles to almost any type of option trade. I will not discuss the extremely advanced strategies. Using these complex strategies might return a few additional points on your rate of return. However, the additional gains are usually not large enough to offset the increased costs for the additional trades.
Proceed with caution
Before I get into the details of specific strategies in other articles, here are few cautionary statements. As with almost all investments, any money that you invested in options must be money that you can afford to lose. This warning goes double for the trades where you are selling the rights for another party to demand delivery of some security or money from you — including selling calls and puts.
This means that options trading — especially options spread trading — is not for everyone. If I buy only calls or puts, I am never exposing myself to unlimited risk. However, I am also exposing myself to more risk than is necessary. Every trader must understand that these strategies will only minimize risk. The only strategy that eliminates all possible investment risk is staying out of the market completely. As long as you understand that, we are all clear to proceed into option spread trading.
Some traders might decide that the potential risk in option spread trading is too great for them. I would advise those traders to reevaluate whether they should trade in options at all. I believe that anyone who wants to trade in the options market, should consider seriously using option spread trading. The advantages of option spread trading will generally reduce the risk of loss. Avoiding large losses is important even more than obtaining every bit of profit. If you are willing to learn option trading basics and if you have the discipline to execute the strategies, options spread trading is a fantastic way to minimize potential losses.

So you want to figure out how much it can help, how much better, and how much better when adjusting the dosage.

For a moderately experienced lifter, putting on 1 pound of muscle each week would be a massive accomplishment, and probably not sustainableat the lifter level in the long run. It'll be tough to keep your diet in line with these new and improved standards. Some lifters will end up getting even more out of a week. But if you keep training, and don't quit after the first few weeks, you can keep your training goals at moderate levels (or even just above, depending on your goals) for years and years to come. So here comes the great news: If you're reading this right now, you already have a body that's grown to the point where it's ready to take on these new demands placed upon it by your new programming. Just add some protein and eat more carbs and a few other foods. And, if you don't want to go a step beyond what's listed below, you can add another pound of muscle for next year at the very least so you don't have to sacrifice muscle development over a year's time. And you've got about 90 days to make up your mind. Let's look at my body composition goals for the next three weeks. Then we will take a closer look and look at my goals for the following month. And after that, let's take a closer look at one more body system and two years of my bodybuilding goals, one year from now. And, as you can see, for myself, this plan has worked surprisingly well for my goals. I can't stress this enough: The goals are reasonable, and I have my personal goals in common -- I want to keep my body in pretty good shape for my training and competition goals. For most guys this would leave me on about 10 pounds of muscle. And for most guys, I was probably way over that. But if I just kept doing what I was doing, I could grow to over 100 pounds of muscle with no serious setbacks.I guess as long as I keep doing it, I may as well be in the gym all the time doing what I am doing now. And there is a good chance that this could result in very short-term muscle gains when I put my mind to it, but it could result in very long-term muscle growth if I keep hitting those specific muscle growth goals on both a regular basis. You'll see more specifics on how to hit these specific long-term plans in the comments section of this post and on the forum topic "What Is The Right Workout for The Right Body?", both of which follow here.To put it together, here is what Related Article:

3 Tips for Successfully Selling Your Home From Out of State
Buying a new home while selling your current one can be a daunting task. Ideally, both transactions would happen around the same time. But, in the world of real estate, that's not always possible. To add another layer of complexity, what if your new home is in another state? How do you successfully juggle an out-of-state move while selling your old home?
Here are a few tips to help streamline the selling process.
Set expectations
It's always in your best interest to partner with an experienced REALTOR® whenever you buy or sell a home. But, when handling a transaction from another state, it's especially important to seek local, professional guidance. REALTOR® Carin Whybrew with Coldwell Banker Hubbell BriarWood says when working with an out-of-state seller, communication is key.
"Right up front we need to establish how we will talk to one another," she said. "How will I get an offer to you? How quickly will you be able to respond? Sometimes we are dealing with different time zones, countries, and/or languages, so setting up communication expectations is paramount to a successful transaction."
In addition to addressing communication, it's important to understand seller and agent roles. Whybrew goes over a checklist with her clients and sets a game plan, which she says eliminates a lot of unnecessary back and forth.
"As a REALTOR® we take on a lot of responsibility," she said." However, the seller can't have an 'out of sight, out of mind' mentality as it is still their property. We're a team, and in order for this experience to be as stress-free as possible, we need to set a roadmap and make sure that roles and responsibilities are clear."
One of the most important seller responsibilities is making sure your REALTOR® has all the important documents and paperwork to facilitate the ultimate close. For instance, if the property is held in a trust, the title company will need to see the certificate of trust, among other potential documentation. The last thing you want is to hold up a sale searching for needed information, so make sure necessary paperwork is readily available.
Make safety a priority
Remember, a "for sale" sign out front shines a spotlight on your house, and when you're out of state, it's hard to keep an eye on things. The first step in keeping your home secure is to notify neighbors and even the local police and fire department that the property will be vacant. If possible, consider asking a local family member or friend to drop by periodically to check things out.
Whybrew says when it comes to staging, homeowners think of making a home look pretty, but she says staging also involves safety. If someone should peek inside, they'll get the impression the home is occupied. At the very least, it's a good idea to leave a few lamps placed around the house and set both interior and exterior lighting on timers. This will keep the property well-lit at night and help to deter intruders.
"Most importantly, the home needs to be ready and safe for viewing," she says. "Sellers need to ensure that the property is broom clean, walkways are clear, and that we're able to access the home's major mechanical systems for inspection."
Also, don't forget to make arrangements for exterior maintenance. Grass and landscaping must be regularly maintained, gutters need to be cleaned, and during the winter months, snow and ice need to be cleared from driveways and walkways. This is important not only for appearances, but also for safety. Whybrew also asks sellers to leave behind batteries, light bulbs, a broom, cleaning supplies, and depending on the time of year, a shovel and salt.
Have a closing plan
Traveling back for closing is not always an option for out-of-state sellers. But don't worry; long distance closings are actually quite common.
One option is to assign someone local as your Power of Attorney, which allows them to sign the closing documents in your place. It's also possible to handle everything by mail. In this scenario, the title company mails the documents to you to sign in the presence of a Notary Public, and provides the overnight mailing label to send everything back. Depending on your location, the title company may also be able to send a remote closer directly to you for an additional, small fee.
Whybrew says any of these options can be arranged pretty easily, but advanced planning is required to make sure it all goes off without a hitch.
"I've had clients who were out of the country and in some areas, it's not always easy to find a Notary Public, and even if you find one, they can be very expensive," she said. "This all goes back to setting expectations and putting together a plan. If we have these discussions up front, it will limit potential roadblocks and help alleviate stress."
You and your REALTOR® will also need to discuss important items like the transfer of utilities, how your funds from the sale will be sent, when you can cancel your homeowners insurance, etc.
While selling a home from out of state can be tricky, it's definitely doable with preparation and expert guidance. Remember, now is not the time to try the for-sale-by-owner route. If you align yourself with a local REALTOR® you'll have a strong advocate in your corner who will walk you through the process and take care of things in your absence.
