The Sanskrit word yoga is derived from the root yuj means to bind together, hold fast or yoke, which also governs the Latin iungere and iugum, and the French joug and so on. Yoga signifies a union of the individual soul with the Supreme Spirit. It is an old Indian practice, imparting that the man's bondage results identification of the soul with the body and that his liberation is attained through the knowledge of their separateness.

Islam recognizes as a rule only the union of one man and one woman as a valid form of marriage. Under exceptional circumstances, it allows the man more wives than one, but does not allow the woman more husbands than one. Thus while a married woman cannot contract a valid marriage, a married man can do it. There is no difficulty in understanding this differentiation, if the natural duties of man and woman in the preservation and upbringing of human species are kept in view.

"The word taqiya is derived from the root tuqat means conceal, hide or arrange for protection. It is also suggested that it is rooted from waqqa means keep from or guard someone. Thus, taqiya means precautionary dissimulation. The Koranic term tauqqat is also taken in the meaning of taqiya, to which divergence of opinions have been advanced.

"Apprehensive of Muawiya's designs against him, Ali considered Kufa suitably situated to check any encroachment in Iraq, therefore he made it his capital in 36/657, as topographically it was in the centre of his dominions. In Syria, disorder and incitement to commotion continued unabated. Uthman's shirt, besmeared with his blood and the chopped-off fingers of his wife, Naila, were exhibited from the pulpit. In this manner, Muawiya raised the entire country of Syria against Ali.

The true meaning of the word sufi has been much discussed and many books has been composed on the subject. The word sufi is derived from safa means purity, because the foremost need in Sufism is to purify the heart. Another view suggests that the Sufis are in the first rank (saff'i awwal); others say that the Sufis claim to belong to the ashab'i suffa (the Companions of the Prophet). Some assert its derivation from suf (wool) because of wearing woolen garment (jama'i suf).

The Sanskrit word kar means hand, and krit means deeds of hand. Thus, the word sukrat or sukrit means the good deeds conducted by hand. Sukrit is however physically a soft-dish, and its little bit is served during the rites of Ab-i Shafa to the adherents in the Jamatkhana, but it contains rich symbolic meaning for the believers.

"Educability, humanity's species characteristic, is not simply a matter of learning the answers to old questions, but, more importantly, the increasing ability to ask new questions that may lead to new answers. There is always the danger that old answers will discourage the raising of new and appropriate questions, with the result that the error becomes institutionalized, often as a way of life."
I went to a concert yesterday in a church sanctuary. The concert was unrelated to the business of the church, but the materials (bibles, hymnals, etc.) remain in place no matter what is happening in the space (services or otherwise). A stack of cards in a box on the back of each pew read "Welcome. This card may help you communicate a need or provide information."
I had this thought: What if we gave cards like these to children in school? What if young people had an ongoing opportunity to communicate, on paper? When I read the card, I got the impression that my experience mattered, that I was being invited to participate.
I thought about the young people I know and wondered what each of them might write on such a card. The first person who came to mind is in sixth grade. He might write "Most of the time I'm confused when we're doing math." Another would likely say something like "I'm really interested in invasive species; can we learn more about that?" Two high school students I know might say "Is there any way you could punch holes in our handouts before you give them to us, or keep a hole punch in the room so we could punch them ourselves? That would help me keep my binder from getting so messy." Another might say "I'm really not trying to be a brat, but I'm bored, and it's so frustrating when we spend so much time going over the homework that is exactly what we just did in class the day before." Given the chance, I think they'd tell us all sorts of things that would be helpful to know. Things that would help us understand their behavior, things that would help us provide the best possible support for them, things that would help us know them better.
My guess is that there are some teachers and schools who have something like this in place, some way for students to communicate with teachers and administrators that does not require trying to get an adult's attention verbally, or reveal his or her need or information to all those within earshot. But in general, I think we expect that young people will speak up if there's something they need to say, and I think mostly they don't.
Some might abuse an "opportunity to communicate a need or provide information" in an anonymous fashion, as one quick look at the internet will tell us. It might be worth the sifting and sorting it would take to manage that, though, if it would make it possible for us to hear more from young people who are sitting quietly not communicating with us, and, too, many of the ones who aren't sitting quietly but aren't going to say theirs out loud either.
Even if none of them wrote anything down, I think they'd get that message that I got when I read the card sitting there in the pew of a church I don't even attend – that if I was there, I was invited to communicate and thus to participate.
the sorter is broken
I asked a high-school aged friend if she's thought about what she might want to study in college (she'd already told me she wants to go) or what she might want to do after college. She hesitated, and then said that she really likes science but she's terrible at memorizing things, so probably she'll do something with history instead. She said she's especially interested in environmental science and issues related to climate change.
You could think of this as a teaching or curriculum problem, but I don't think it really is. I think it's a sorting problem. Or a problem with how we've taught ourselves to imagine we should be sorted when it comes to ability and suited-ness to particular tasks and professions. And also a problem with how we think about what our brains are best used for.
This young person thinks that her difficulty with memorizing will exclude her (or should exclude her) from a career in science. She has classmates who memorize easily, and they are the ones with high scores on tests and in courses. So on paper, on transcripts, if it's good grades that tell us about someone's aptitude for a particular area of study, we can see that her quick-memorizing classmates are the ones destined for careers in science. Yes, many a good teacher will tell you that if you don't emphasize the memorization you can show something different with how you grade, but for most students in most schools, information recall is a big factor in grade determination and a teacher who makes it otherwise is swimming upstream and trying to pull her students along with her against a strong current.
What would we have to do to make it otherwise? First we'd have to decide whether we believe that a scientist must be able to keep on hand a multitude of data. Must one? I'd guess not, at a time when it's possible to put a handheld device with endless data in the hand of any professional anything. Wouldn't it make sense for the first qualifying characteristic for a career in science (or any participation in science) be an interest in participating, and then perhaps the second an interest in and capacity for problem solving and analytical thought? Science once required extensive memorization, but it doesn't any more, and we've got big enough problems, and many enough problems, that the more solvers we can get on them the better, it seems to me. To exclude the ones who can't memorize stuff as well as some others can memorize stuff seems unwise. Not to mention that the good memorizers might be put to better use elsewhere especially if they're not interested in the careers and occupations that their memorizing might qualify them for and point them in the direction of.
what matters
I was on the phone with a mom today who told me this story about her son, who thinks of himself as a lousy student who can't do math and isn't much better at other things. She told me:
"I was filling out the form [for school] and I asked him what he thought his new teacher should know about him. If there were one thing he'd want her to know, what would it be? He sat there for a minute, looking out the window, and then as he went back to what he was doing he said 'Tell them I'm kind.'"
This child knows that kindness is not the currency of schooling. He knows that it isn't what anyone will be measuring when he gets there. And maybe he thinks that kindness is all he has to offer, in spite of its relatively low value in the eyes of the institution (as indicated by the fact that it doesn't appear on any report card he's ever seen or heard of).
Or maybe he thinks it's important, and thinks that while his past performance on timed math tests and the like suggests he doesn't have what school is looking for, he does have something that matters, or something that should.

Peetz upends homestanding Potter-Dix
POTTER – When Jodi Schumacher of Peetz High School nailed a 3-pointer late in the final quarter last Tuesday night, a big smile suddenly overwhelmed her face.
Though Schumacher didn't have her best night shooting, she hit the two most significant shots of the game as the Lady Bulldogs turned back the Potter-Dix Lady Coyotes 41-40 in a cross-state thriller. The Coyotes lost for only the fourth time this season (14-4) while the Bulldogs evened their mark at 8-8.
When Schumacher's fourth-quarter trey dropped, she gave her team 38-36 lead with 3:30 left in the game. Though the Coyotes spent...

Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service urge 'safety first' ahead of Bonfire Night
Emergency services and local councils across Cumbria are gearing up for what is traditionally the busiest time of the year. Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS) is asking the residents and communities of Cumbria to consider their safety ahead of the bonfire night celebrations in the coming weeks.
Watch Manager for Prevention, Edward Burrows, said:
"Safety is our main consideration and we are encouraging members of the public to attend a safely organised bonfire and firework display , reducing the risk of any accidents or injuries. When emergency services are called to attend unsafe bonfires or avoidable fire vandalism it means they may have to be diverted away from life threatening accidents and emergencies with potentially tragic consequences."
Organised displays
Many local authorities, schools and community groups hold firework displays to mark certain occasions and they are a great place to enjoy the fun safely. They are often free of charge and many raise money for local charities. Fireworks can be expensive - you're likely to get more dazzle and bang at an organised event.
Enjoying the fireworks in your local park with your local community - sharing the 'oohs' and 'aahs' in the crowd - can be a great way of getting together, meeting with your friends and neighbours and sharing in your local community spirit. But remember to take a torch along with you and make sure children wear bright clothes so they can be easily seen.
Hosting a fireworks party
If you have a safe place to do so and want to celebrate with fireworks in the comfort of your own garden or on other private land (with the landowner's permission), there's nothing to stop you and there's no reason why you can't enjoy a great evening. But remember that both you and your guests will need to take care.
These tips are to help you think about and prepare for a fun and safe celebration at home.
Plan ahead:
Fireworks must be stored safely, in a closed box, somewhere cool and dry, out of reach of children and animals, until the time they are needed. Don't keep the box under the stairs or in a passageway.
Do you have a large enough space to let fireworks off safely? Each firework should have a minimum safety distance marked on it.
Be considerate to your neighbours: warn them beforehand so they can take in their washing, close windows, keep their pets indoors and, if necessary, take other precautions.
Only buy fireworks from reputable dealers. The fireworks should have the product safety marking BS7114 or equivalent and carry a CE mark.
Party time
Fireworks must only be handled and lit by responsible adults.
Alcohol and fire don't mix - nor do alcohol and fireworks.
Keep fireworks in a closed box well away from the bonfire or any other sources of heat or fire.
Follow the instructions on each firework. Different fireworks can present different hazards and so the instructions vary.
Use a torch if you read the instructions in the dark - do not use a naked flame.
Let fireworks off one at a time.
Do not throw fireworks - it is highly dangerous.
Light them at arm's length, using a taper.
Never play with fireworks - they are explosives and can hurt you.
When you are watching fireworks, stand well back.
Never go near a firework that has been lit. Even if it hasn't gone off, it could still explode.
Hold sparklers one at a time in gloved hands at arm's length. When the sparkler goes out, it is still very hot so discard it in a bucket of water.
Never leave matches or lighters lying around.
We recommend that you do not use sky lanterns as you have no control over them once they've been set off. They can kill animals, litter the countryside and start fires. If you do choose to set them off, always follow the manufacturers' guidance/instructions carefully.
Clearing up
Pick up the spent firework cases - they can still be dangerous. Look for fireworks with a torch. Use tongs or some other suitable tool and wear heatproof gloves.
Don't allow children to collect firework cases.
If a firework looks like it hasn't gone off after at least half an hour, soak it in water to prevent it reigniting.
Having a bonfire or beacon
A bonfire or beacon are great ways to celebrate Bonfire Night and other events, but do follow these safety tips:
You can't get rid of household waste on the bonfire - it can cause pollution or harm people's health. You should always burn dry material as it produces less smoke. Never burn treated wood, rubber, plastic, foam or paint.
Build your bonfire well clear of buildings, roads, garden sheds, fences, trees and hedges and, if possible, choose somewhere sheltered from the wind to minimise the risk of the bonfire being blown out of control or smoke restricting the vision of road users.
Check there are no cables - like telephone wires - above the bonfire.
Before you light the bonfire, check whether any pets, wildlife or small children have crawled inside.
Always keep a bucket of water or a working hosepipe nearby.
Never use flammable liquids to start a bonfire and never throw on fireworks or burn dangerous items such as aerosol cans, paint tins, foam furniture or batteries.
Don't leave bonfires unattended and keep children and pets away. A responsible adult should supervise the bonfire until it has burnt out.
Once the bonfire has died down, pour water on the embers to stop it reigniting.
Edward Burrows adds:
"Fire, fireworks and alcohol can be a very dangerous combination at garden and street parties. This year we want bonfire night to be one of the safest on record and therefore we are asking members of the public who are thinking of holding their own bonfire or firework display to consider attending an organised display instead. These events are generally safer and more spectacular and therefore more enjoyable for friends and families. However you decide to celebrate, following these tips and guidance will help ensure everyone has a good time and stays safe."

MS Finnfellow had a technical failure which caused limited power distribution at 23:30 Finnish time on Tuesday 13 November 2018. The vessel was safely anchored by the fairway.
The Finnish Border Guard's patrol vessel Tursas arrived to ensure the safety of Finnfellow.
Finnfellow arrived to the port of Naantali on Wednesday at 5:30 by its own engines followed by two tugboats to secure the safe arrival.
The technical failure has now been repaired. The vessel awaits permission from the authorities in order to return to normal scheduled traffic this evening.
A total of 170 persons, of which 136 passengers, were on board. MS Finnfellow was heading from Naantali via Långnäs to Kapellskär.
Finnlines apologizes for any inconvenience caused to its passengers and customers and thanks for understanding.
MS Finnfellow is a ro-pax (passenger-cargo) vessel, built in 2000. The vessel is 188.3 metres long and has a capacity for 440 passengers and for 2,918 lane metres of rolling cargo.

We can aerate, also called coring, your lawn in the early spring,
and if necessary, again in the early fall.
Aeration reduces thatch, improves both drainage and compacted soil.
Aeration is very important for lawns that receive heavy foot traffic.
We will provide you with flags to mark sprinkler heads, shallow pipes and wires.
Approximately two weeks after aeration we can apply the appropriate preemergence herbicide.

We here at Game|Life East don't normally get terribly excited about the Limited or Special edition of games, but the Fallout 3 Collector's Edition has us jumping and clapping with girlish glee.
It has the "making of" DVD and the art book that you might reasonably expect, but it also has a spiffy Vault Boy bobblehead that would look perfect in between my Big Daddy figuring and my plush Samba de Amigo.
More importantly, though, the Collector's Edition comes in a genuine metal Vault-Tec lunchbox. How off-the-charts fantastic/wonderfully nerdy is that? I'm going to have to get a job in an office just so I can carry it to work every day.
The Collector's Edition is $80 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, $20 more than the Standard Edition, but oh, so totally worth it.

The emotional rundown from a first-time foster parent
We decided to become foster parents because we knew there were kids needing homes and families needing support. We did not become foster parents because we were seeking heartbreak, looking to struggle with intense trauma, or become more wholly aware of generational challenges. But, here we are. We're here because we feel called, we know it's needed, and dammit, we signed up for this.
So how does reunification actually feel? It's as painful as people assume and more revealing of God's blessings than you'd ever guess.
It's basically a rollercoaster of every emotion ever.
Here's my list of all the feels...
Elation: How lucky are we to see redemption in this family?!
Joy: You can't not beam when you see a parent so happy after the judge ruled he's going home. Such relief. Such pride.
Pain: I want to throw up when I see the date circled on our calendar. We're taking him home that day. Not back to our house.
Anguish: How could the state miss that detail? How could that not be concerning to professionals involved?
Irritation: Are you seriously asking me this question AGAIN? Did I not lay it out for you a million times?
Intense Anger: Step. It. Up. Act like you want it!
Annoyance: Ugh. I couldn't get a foster care license if (insert anything about a house) was like this.
Sorrow: You're not noticing this concerning thing because you weren't raised to. You don't know any different because you weren't protected either.
Worry: Did he eat? How did he sleep? Is he shutting down? Is he stuttering because he's nervous?
Peace: We were not called to be saviors. We were called to be a part of a bigger story. It is out of our control.
Hope: We want to be here for all of you and are so grateful that you are considering our involvement in your lives. Let us be your community!
Pride: Despite the pain and frustration, I'm proud of our family (extended too!) for taking this leap in big love for others.
Contentment: We were not called to be social workers, perfect parents, perfect people, or the end-all-be-all. We were called to foster love for whatever time. We've done our job well.
There's nothing easy about this journey and it doesn't look or feel at all like we thought it could or would. But that doesn't mean it was a waste. The time we have fostered this beautiful boy was exactly what we were called to do and we would do it all over again if we could.
If you've fostered and then reunified a child, what resonates most with you?

Hi honey. This made me cry. One of my cases the state didn't find any relatives - of course there were grandparents in another city - who when they found out about her came flying into the state right before the judge was going to allow the adoption process to begin. The baby was only 6 months old and her foster parents were beyond hysterical and ever so sad. It was a nightmare to watch - we were called to the case 5 days prior when gma caled the CASA office asking for help. Both wanted her - but both couldn't be there for her growing up. The foster mother, hysterically asked the judge to rule on the issue ASAP because she just couldn't take the emotional strain. Because she asked the baby was allowed to go home with her gma. My co CASA and myself were very upset to even see this emotional rollarcoaster - but we knew in the 5 days we had made the right decision. The gma sends us pictures of the baby (now 2) at each milestone. What haunts me to this day is the pain I saw both physically and mentally in that courtroom- the anguish. The foster had no idea gma even existed because the state hadn't done their job and she was under the impression that she was going to be able to adopt.

Is an Annual Physical Necessary?
We are told an annual physical each year is recommended, but what is it and why do we need it? The yearly exam involves visiting with your family doctor to review your current health. By scheduling an annual physical, even if you feel healthy, your doctor will be able to keep your medical records up to date. If a medical problem develops, you will be able to catch it earlier if you have not already noticed it. This is an excellent time to ask any questions you may have leading up to the appointment.
By having an annual physical, you will:
- Increase your chances of finding serious problems sooner rather than later, so your family doctor can treat them right away.
- Have the opportunity to speak with your doctor about any questions or concerns you may have .
- Create a valuable record of essential health measurements, such as your blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature, height, weight, and waist size.
Schedule an Appointment with Your Family Doctor
If it is time for your annual physical exam, call Family Medicine and Vein Clinic at (402) 316-4320 and schedule your next appointment today!

My eldest daughter ,blocked certain sights on the router example gmailand mincraft so her younger brother can't use the sight ,she won't tell me how ,could you please help as i've tried to look can't get ,thanks

If only your eldest daughter has access to the OpenDNS account, then only she is able to change the settings. If you have access too, you can change the settings yourself, by checking domain categories or by white/blacklisting individual domain names.
If your eldest daughter has done this without OpenDNS, e.g. on the router, then you must refer to the specific forum for your router to get help.

Kynd Cannabis Spotlight: Meet the Cadillac Purple Strain
The more you know about cannabis strains, the better equipped you are to choose the right plant for your needs. To help you learn more about different sativa, indica and hybrid strains, we're taking a look at all of the Kynd Cannabis strains in a new spotlight series. Questions? Fire away in the comments. We're happy to help.
Kynd Cannabis Spotlight: Cadillac Purple
Maybe the name gives it away, but Cadillac Purple is one of Kynd's truly purple strains. This strain is heavy on the indica, making it popular with those in search of complete body relaxation and pain relief without the spacey head effects. While tolerance levels vary from one person to the next, many people may find that Cadillac Purple has a "creeper" onset, developing gradually before blooming into its well-rounded range of attributes.
Cadillac Purple Strain Aroma & Flavor
The aroma is lightly floral, similar to certain perfumes. A mild but distinct sweetness with grape and berry overtones is addicting in the best sense, with a pleasant and lingering aftertaste.
Cadillac Purple Lineage
This indica strain is a cross between Purple Urkle, Blackberry Kush and The Black.
Cadillac Purple Attributes
The effects of the Cadillac Purple strain include pronounced relaxation, sleepiness, mellow euphoria and general happiness. Medicinally, Cadillac Purple is known for powerful pain and insomnia relief. It's also effective against stress, depression and lack of appetite.
Drawbacks of Cadillac Purple may include pronounced dry mouth, dry eyes and the possibility of minor paranoia.
Cadillac Purple Availability
Kynd's Cadillac Purple strain is available in flower that's been expertly grown, harvested, trimmed and cured for a premium experience. It's also available as a vape oil concentrate, a dab sap and a preroll.
In Reno, you'll find Kynd's Cadillac Purple strain in these products at Mynt, the city's only downtown dispensary. Ask a Mynt budtender about Kynd's Cadillac Purple today.

Let's talk about lessons learned in 2019.
Phew! What a wild ride this year has been.
I feel as if it has been crazier, more challenging and more exhausting than all of my past years combined. The struggle is real you guys, and it hasn't been easy. So I thought I would share with you my personal lessons learned in 2019.
Earlier this year I made the decision of leaving a stable job to get my Master's degree. And I thought that was the hardest decision I was going to have to make this year. What I've learned this year is to STOP THINKING THAT, because here are a few other things that happened this year.
I had to leave behind important relationships this year.
I lost my grandfather this year.
I moved to a brand new place I had never been to before.
I felt alone and out of place and found it difficult to make good friends.
I dislocated my patella (knee cap) and suffered severe ligament and cartilage damage.
I decided to get operated on to help stabilize my knee as it would help reduce the chances of another knee dislocation.
So not only did I have to go through extreme pain, recovery and physiotherapy the first time I dislocated my knee, I had to go through that all over again a few weeks earlier after my surgery.
I am writing this article wearing a limited motion knee brace that covers my entire right leg, with 5 healing cuts on my knees. Admittedly the pain isn't as bad as when I dislocated my knee, which is a good sign, I have been told.
For all those of you who are confused about what exactly happened to my knee, I suffered a Medial Patella Femoral Ligament Injury, which is what happens when the ligament that helps keeps your knee centered and move smoothly with all your activities gets damaged. One good thing that happened because of this is that I got a lot of time for self reflection.
For more information, you can check out this link here.
Although I never asked for any of these things, I truly believe none of this would have happened if there wasn't some good that was to come out of it, a light at the end of the tunnel, if you will.
I wouldn't wish what I had to go through this year on anyone, but that doesn't mean that a few good things didn't come out of it.
My lessons learned in 2019 made me see that I am stronger than I think, my body is capable of more than I can imagine and that real friends and people who mean well will show their true colors during your worst time.
And you don't need the people who only want to be with you only when things are hunky-dory.
Now let's deep dive into the good stuff.
2019 taught me a lot of important lessons and I am here to share it with all of you. Consider it my PSA, if you will.
Here are the results of my self reflection in my very personal 2019 wrap up!
- Trust Your Intuition:
There will be times in your life when you meet certain people especially, and a bodily alarm goes off. No one can see it or feel it but you. You might find yourself getting very annoyed with them straight off the bat, you might even feel uncomfortable, anxious and sweaty and you can't even explain why.
I realized that this year, these symptoms were my body's way of telling me to RUN!
These aren't the people for you, just maintain your distance from these people and the reasons will reveal itself later.
The number of times this has happened to me this year is not even funny and if I had trusted my intuition, I would have had much less of a heartbreaking year.
2. Worrying is Going Through It Twice
If you're a classic overthinker like me, worrying might be like second nature to you. There are literally only a few possible outcomes for every situation. Some may be good for you, others bad. But thinking about the different situations over and over again is not going to help anyone. It's basically putting yourself through torture and sadness twice.
So instead try this:
Ask yourself two questions:
What is the best possible outcome in this situation?
What is the worst possible outcome in this situation?
Then write down what you would do and what would happen in each case and focus more on the best possible outcome. You will be surprised to see how accurately the best possible outcome came to reality.
3. You can't prepare for everything
I think this point links to the one above but is still important nonetheless.
A growth mindset or what Marie Forleo calls the 'Everything is Figureoutable' mindset. When things go wrong, you get 30 seconds to freak out but after that, you must remember that this too can be figured out. And especially if you are working with a team, you must be able to convince your team members that the setback is only temporary. If they believe that too, then they will be more focused on providing solutions than if they thought that there was no way out.
4. You are stronger than you think
Never in a billion years did I think I would handle all that I did this year.
"Nobody can hurt me without my permission."
― Mahatma Gandhi
This quote by Mahatma Gandhi really stuck with me because it really puts things in perspective. Nothing can hurt you unless you let it hurt you. The power lies in your mind to let it affect you in the present or future, choose wisely. I know we all will need a minute to wallow or be in our feelings but eventually, we do get over things which we thought were the worst things to happen to us and we come out 10 times stronger.
5. People reveal their true colors eventually
Have you ever been in a situation where you find out someone's true character? Things that people you hang out with have no clue about, but they only reveal these things in private when there aren't many people around. But in situations like this, you can't really tell others about it without seeming like a bad person or at least someone who talks bad about others. I know, I have been there many times. I wonder why this happens to me first usually, but I think its better so I get to make my opinion before I get too close. This is one of the major lessons learned in 2019.
At the time it seems like the most frustrating thing in the world but fret not, the truth eventually comes out and everyone will start to see what you see, without you having to say a word.
6. Everyone deals with loss differently
What do you expect to see when you walk into a house where someone has just died? People crying, bawling, pin-drop silence, an air of despair if you will. That's what you expect but sometimes that's not always the case. When faced with loss:
Some people cry openly
Some people cry in private
Some people talk too much
Some people talk too less
Some people laugh
Some people crack jokes
Some people get bossy
Some people get angry
There is no one way to tackle grief, everyone has their own coping mechanism. Let people grieve as they wish; you don't get to dictate or control how someone feels pain.
7. People understand only how much they want to understand
I am sure many of you have faced the situation when you are trying to have a discussion with someone and they just don't see your point, no matter how many facts you have. Frustrating as that is, unfortunately, that's how all humans work.
We only accept what aligns with our values and thoughts. Other thoughts, ideas, and visions no matter how solid it is will never be able to penetrate the bubble we have created for ourselves over the years.
It's based on your childhood, heredity, environment, nature vs nurture and all that. So sometimes when people cannot understand where you are coming from or what you are saying just take a step back and let them be who they are. Nobody's perfect we have our own pitfalls that others may find annoying. We can't like everyone and can't expect everyone to like us.
Out of all the lessons learned in 2019, what I've learned about letting people be who they are is the most crucial.
8. Pay attention to ones who stick around
Good times are just the best, you feel like people have your back, you have got your ducks in order and all that jazz. But it's usually when shit hits the fan and you need your close ones to help you out you really get to know who is really there for you and who is not. Pay more attention to these people, you really get to know who is there for you and who is not and these are the people you need to spend your precious energy on.
9. Restricting time on social media is magic
These days everything seems to be happening on social media. Making friends, making plans, finding trips, planning trips, learning about what's happening, building brands and building lives – social media makes all this happen and so much more.
But the bad side of social media is that it is sadly mind-numbing. It can be extremely distracting and can turn your attention to so many different things and make it super difficult to focus on one thing at a time. It makes you compare your life, make you want things you don't have and other things.
Try restricting the amount of time you spend on social media and trust me it will change your life. Be mindful of why you are opening an app. Be present when you are scrolling, see a post, read the caption, comment on it, like it, really SEE the post. Be intentional with your social media usage and your life will change.
10. Don't give to people who only want to take
Energy suckers as I like to call them. Beware of people who only talk to you when they want something from you or are nice to you when they want something or even have a whiny voice, okay sorry, that's just my prejudice. They will take and take and take and take forever to give back or never give back.
The niceness in us makes us, unfortunately, say yes, but don't just DON'T. Look away, turn around, or just run from the situation. These people make you feel used and depleted and that's just not what we want for ourselves now is it?
Yay! You made it to the end of the post!
These were the lessons learned in 2019 by yours truly.
It was really fun for me to look back on the last year and look at what I've learned. January 2019 Me and December 2019 Me are two different people and that's a good thing. I hope you learned a thing or two from my experiences, drop a comment about the lessons you learned in 2019.
Don't forget to follow me on Instagram @thepurpleglitchblog where I share new content everyday on health, mindset, and personal development. See you guys there!

Book Review: The Natural Vegan Kitchen
First of all, thank you to Book Publishing Company for sending me some books to review. (Did you know you could win free books from them?? Find out how, here.)
The first book I'm reviewing is The Natural Vegan Kitchen by Christine Waltermyer.
This book just came out and I was really excited to start flipping through it to mark all the recipes I wanted to make (like I do to all new cookbooks I get)! This book combines vegan and macrobiotic cooking. Waltermyer includes a lot of gluten free recipes as well. In fact, I would say that most of the recipes are gluten free.
She includes recipes for every part of the meal, including breakfast, appetizers, soups, salads, grains, beans, and desserts. My first thought when perusing the pages was that it used a lot of ingredients that I didn't have. I probably could get at least some of them at my local Asian grocery store, but there are some I wouldn't have access to. This might prohibit some readers from purchasing the book, EXCEPT, that you can substitute other items for a lot these. So don't let that factor dissuade you from getting this book. In fact, in some of the recipes I made this past week, I did have to substitute some things. (Waltermyer does have a glossary at the end of the book to explain all of these ingredients)
Some of those "hard to find items" are: xantham gum, gluten-free brown rice syrup (I subbed agave nectar), kombu, umeboshi vinegar, wakame, kuzu or arrowroot starch, wheat free tamari (I subbed soy sauce).
I'm sure there are also plenty of you out there that do actually have these ingredients or have easy access to them. Great!
Now I do love a cookbook with lots of pictures in it....unfortunately, this has very few, BUT, the ones that are in there are wonderful pictures and they do make you want to make the food in there! They just look so delicious!
Here are a few of the items I made this week:
Peanut Sauce - excellent for pouring over cold noodles for lunch! I took these to work with me, mixed with udon, green onions, carrots, and cucumbers, it was the perfect lunch. First of all, I substituted almond butter for the peanut butter and then I substituted soy sauce for the wheat-free tamari and agave nectar, for the brown rice syrup. I also used powdered ginger, as I didn't have fresh (but next time I will use fresh). It was a bit runny, so I next time I'll add less water.
Lentil-Walnut Pate - I was actually quite surprised at the taste of this. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I loved it! I think the key is the balsamic vinegar...gives it a nice zing. Again, I substituted the same as above and used dried parsley, as I didn't have fresh. And it's so easy to make....it all goes into a food processor and you're done!
Tempeh Mock Tuna Salad - Woa! This was amazing!! I loved it and will make it whenever I can....not so easy, however, to get tempeh in my local stores. But it gives you the option to use chickpeas instead, which I haven't tried. It does call for vegan mayo, but in my opinion, it calls for way too much. I guess I'm not used to really mayo'd up salads, but I would put half the amount in next time. (oh, and I added lots more celery. I love lots of crunch!)
Miso Vinaigrette - Another great recipe. I made a batch and there's still some left. I used green onions instead of chives, because I didn't have any and I'd just gotten the onions from the farmer's market. Only four ingredients in this dressing. Easy and delicious!
There are plenty of other recipes in there for me to try...I'll keep working at it. If you want this book, you could win one free! As part of Book Publishing Company's Live Delicious, Eat Vegan campaign this month, they are giving away some of these books we're reviewing. Go check it out!
I'll have more reviews coming up, as soon as I can get more cooking (or uncooking as it may be) done in the kitchen :)
Eat smart,

Thank you for all the info. I just signed up to win their cookbooks. I like the tempeh mock tuna salad, that is something I would probably make right the way. I don't have neither will I buy any time soon xantham gum, kombu, umeboshi vinegar, wakame, kuzu, or arrowroot starch, but hopefully they are not in many recipes. The umeboshi vinegar is tempting since I LOVE vinegars and sour foods and condiments. I made some lentil walnut pater with balsamic vinegar recently, I found a recipe in the Vegetarian Times magazine and I loved it! It was a recipe for stuffed mushrooms, but I turned half of the lentil-walnut stuffing into a pate. Yummy. You are right, the balsamic vinegar gives it a nice zing.ReplyDelete
I am interested in this cookbook, thanks for the review.ReplyDelete

This award-winning, stunningly crafted, soft cover, coffee table size photographic essay is the first and only photographic book that comprehensively depicts all phases of this popular working dog sport, including training, competitions, dogs at play and with their families, dog portraits and puppies. It features over 370 full color, large format photographs from 26 photographers. The purpose of this book is to introduce the sport to those who are unfamiliar with it and to honor Schutzhund dogs and their passionate trainers and handlers. We chose to create this book because dry prose summaries describing Schutzhund training do not capture its beauty, the bond between handlers and their dogs, nor the hard work, challenges and rewards of the sport. Inside are photographs and concise text that show what participants and observers will typically see in the sport. Schutzhund or Dog Sport involves three phases: tracking, obedience and protection work. For over 100 years it has been used to produce healthy, intelligent, strong and talented working dogs worldwide. Read the rest of this entry »

In 1989 a candy company called Mermaid (at least that'd be my best guess here) issued a set of baseball cards. The set featured 50 cards in total - 10 cards for each of the Central League teams except the Swallows. Each pack (the wrapper of which is seen above) contained one card and one sticker along with a couple pieces of candy.
The cards were slightly smaller than the standard size - 2 3/8 inches by 3 3/8 inches. The set contains most of the major stars of those teams - Kazuyoshi Tatsunami, Tatsunori Hara, Hiromi Makihara, Masumi Kuwata, Manabu Kitabeppu, Yutaka Ono, Akinobu Mayumi, Akinobu Okada, Masaru Uno, Norihiro Komada, Kozo SHoda, and Akio Saitoh. Here's some example cards:
|#2 (Genji Kaku)
|#7 (Kiyoshi Nakahata)
|#13 (Kazuhisa Kawaguchi)
|#17 (Yutaka Takagi)
|#21 (Akinobu Mayumi)
|#6 (Tatsunori Hara)
The accompanying "stickers" are much smaller - they're squares that are about two inches on a side - and are really decals rather than stickers. They are essentially a parallel issue to the cards as they appear to have the same checklist - I say appear because Engel doesn't actually include the sticker checklist but the 19 I have match the numbers of the cards (and like the cards I only have stickers between 1 and 25). The best part of the stickers is that instead of photos they have caricatures of the players instead. Here's some examples:
|#3 (Kazuyoshi Tatsunami)
|#4 (Toshikatsu Hikono)
|#10 (Katsuhito Mizuno)
|#14 (Takehiko Kobayakawa)
|#19 (Mitsunori Kakehata)
|#22 (Akinobu Okada)
|#9 (Masumi Kuwata)

Little Mix face backlash from X Factor viewers after stripping off for sexy performance during finale
Group ripped off their outfits mid-performance to reveal sexy costumes
LITTLE MIX came under fire from X Factor viewers last night after they stripped off mid- performance on the show.
Those watching at home were less than impressed as they watched the girls' raunchy display on stage during the live finale.
The group – who won the show five years ago – were dressed in cute clothes as they performed their single Oops with Charlie Puth. But when it came to performing their forthcoming track Touch they ripped off their outfits to reveal sexy leotards and two-pieces beneath.
Teamed with fishnet tights and over-the-knee boots the group, made up of Jade Thirlwall, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards and Jesy Nelson, showed off their impressive figures.
While most of their fans loved their fierce performance, some weren't too impressed with their sexed-up show.

One person wrote: "#XFactor shocking outfits from #LittleMix .. target audience is 12 year olds ! Style overhaul required ! Who goes out dressed like that !?"
While someone else tweeted: "I thought #littlemix were in a wearing (some) clothes shocker. But no... back to the stripper outfits. 🙄#xfactorfinal"
And another blasted: "Seriously #littlemix need to put clothes on I want positive role models for my girl not ones that use trawls to put on make up and wear nada."
Others were very supportive of their outfit choices and hit back at the hater.
"Wish people would stop moaning about @LittleMix and their outfits, they look great. No different to what you'd see at the beach #getoverit," wrote one.
While another tweeted: "People who complain bout @LittleMix outfits. These are stage costumes they don't walk down the street like this 😂 the girls looked amazing."
Earlier this year the group were forced to defend their on-stage looks and revealed they didn't get what the big deal was - after even Spice Girl Mel C waded in saying she thought they were 'too provocative' for her daughter.
Jade hit back saying: "It's all us. We're comfortable in what we wear.
"We know what we are wearing and to be honest we were like - we don't really know what the big deal was. It was really weird."
She added: "Every woman that I've spoken to has said 'yes girl'.
"We don't see what the problem is. And I think everyone's got to have something to say - so they picked that one."

The Pacific was the only theater Charlton Heston knew when he was a 17-year-old on a B-25 bomber during World War II.
Heston was a radio operator and gunner when his crew was scheduled to move to Okinawa to support the invasion of Japan.
The Japanese surrender after the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki canceled Operation Olympic, which was expected to result in hundreds of thousands of American casualties.
"If we had to go through that invasion, I'm not sure I'd be standing here," Heston said on Friday after getting a close-up view of a B-25 bomber outside the Lone Star Flight Museum in Galveston, Texas.
Heston, 71, who made his film debut in 1950 before becoming Hollywood's epic hero, was the featured speaker at a fund-raiser for a proposed American Air Museum in Great Britain.

Car chase through Ilford town centre sees suspects escape after colliding with other vehicles
PUBLISHED: 18:28 10 August 2017 | UPDATED: 18:28 10 August 2017
A heavy police presence has been reported in Ilford tonight after suspects who failed to stop for officers were able to escape during a car chase through the town centre.
A Metropolitan Police spokeswoman confirmed officers began a pursuit after a car failed to stop in Hainault Street, Ilford, at 5.38pm.
She added: "The suspect vehicle collided with a number of other vehicles, but there are no reports of any injuries.
"The suspects made off from the scene and the pursuit was lost."
An eyewitness told the Recorder there was an odd atmosphere in central Ilford in the wake of the incident, which is believed to have taken place just outside the General Havelock pub.
They said they had seen three buses parked, empty and driverless, along Ilford High Road in the wake of the incident.
A police helicopter was also seen hovering over the town centre at around 6.10pm.

Great run in Lebanon Hills
I also had no calf pain, unbelievable that one ART treatment has helped that much. What's funny though is that earlier today I noticed some ankle pain, nothing to be worried about just another sign that the calf is doing better and my mind moves to the points of my body that have pain. On tonight's run it was my knee that had some twinges, what a wonderful type of pain.
So I think it is almost time to try to get myself back in running shape by easing my way back into becoming a long distance runner again.

Yippee on the good run! Though I was quite happy for the temps to drop into the 70's for my run tonight. Ready for a break in the weather and a return to "normal" temps.
Deer flies.... UGH!

Sounds like a great run.
I'm encouraged to hear you write about deer fly free running . I just moved to the Twin Cities a week ago and ran in Leb Hills East section last night to check it out and had the constant swarm of deer flies. I was able to tune it out mostly (need to wear a hat next time).
What is the season for deer flies in MN? When did you first have them this year?
I do trail and road ultras so I'll read some of your older posts as it looks like you are into the same.

Thanks Lisa,
Wayne definitely go for the western section, the center section isn't too bad either just not enough trails to run unless of course you go on the horse trails.
Eric welcome to the cities, Deer fly season usually lasts around 4 to 6 weeks. In Lebanon the eastern section is by far the worst, the western section is the best. Hope to see you on the trails.

Friends: As I sat in my private six foot by six foot patch of shade under an open-sided shelter at a pull-over in the middle of the Kalahari Desert, forcing 100-degree mango-flavored water down my throat, a bolt of lightning in the corner of the sky interrupted my reading and eating. I had noticed a dark gathering of clouds in a corner of the sky when I stopped at this shelter, the first I'd come upon in 17 miles since a lunch break in Kakamas, but it was too much to hope that they might be coming my way, as the wind had been at my back and those clods were up ahead. But indeed they were.
My digital thermometer registered 97.3 degrees in the shade, ten degrees cooler than out in the sun. I was baking. At least the light breeze at my back enabled me to average nearly 15 miles per hour. The miles were coming fairly easily, thanks in part that my legs were fresh after spending the previous day on the bus from Pretoria to Upington. As the clouds neared, a stronger side wind began whipping my shirt dangling and drying on the bike. The sun was still shining bright when I felt a first drop of rain. I quickly gathered up my bread and peanut butter and book so I could get out and enjoy the cool of what rain there might be. The first few scattered drops instantly sizzled to oblivion when they hit the scorching hot pavement.
After a minute I could tell that this was going to me more than just a light drizzle. The dark clouds were closing in fast. I quickly dug out my Gore-Tex Jacket just as sheets of cold water and a fusillade of marble-sized hail began pelting me. The hail stung. The wind was so strong I had to dismount my bike, lest I be blown off it. It would have been no use to retreat to the shelter, as the rain was coming at a 45 degree angle and it would have provided no protection whatsoever. It was a struggle to remain upright as the wind and hail pummeled me. There were soon puddles of water on the road. The temperature had plunged 30 degrees, but the road was so hot the water that sprayed on my ankles from the puddles was bath-tub hot. It took the storm just five minutes to vent the worst of its fury, but it was a long five minutes. I was able to remount my bike and start riding as the rain and wind lessened. Within 20 minutes it had stopped and the sky was clear and the temperature was back up to 100, but that half-hour respite did wonders, cooling my core and reinvigorating my legs.
Fortunately the storm did not steal my tail wind. I could continue along at a fairly brisk and effortless 15 miles per hour. Despite the heat, this was the least demanding and most leisurely cycling I had enjoyed in South Africa on a road so flat and so straight a sign just beyond the town of Alheit cautioned, "Only authorized testing of speed allowed." There was so little traffic, it had to be hard for any motorist to resist putting pedal to the metal and if pulled over using the excuse, "I was just testing how fast my car could go."
I didn't set any speed records other than for my best average speed for a full day on this trip and by nearly two miles per hour. The miles were coming so easily, I was tempted to ride through the night and go for a double-century, knocking off the 233 miles from Upington to Springbok in one go. I feared the wind turning on me at any moment, suddenly making the Kalahari a torturous ordeal. But as dark settled in, the slightly less than quarter moon wasn't providing quite enough illumination to safely continue, so I began searching for a place to pitch my tent after I'd come 125 miles. Even out in the vast empty desert the road was lined by barbed wire fence on both sides.
Twice I thought I detected a break in the fence, but it was just an illusion. After a couple more aborted attempts on possible campsites where I thought a bend or dip in the road might provide me some seclusion, I settled on passing my gear and bike over a gate to a dirt road that led to a few scattered bushes that offered protection from the road. It was a risk pushing my bike through a desert of scattered shrubs that could be shedding thorns, but I got away with it. The wind was with me the next day up until the last 15 miles, enabling me back-to-back centuries for the first time on this trip, doing in two days what I anticipated would be a three-day trip. Riding the Kalahari was one of the things in South Africa I was most looking forward to, and it didn't disappoint me. It wasn't as desolate as I anticipated. There was scattered vegetation, enough for an occasional flock of goats or sheep. Huge bird tests, hosting colonies of up to 200 weaver birds, small as sparrows, dangled from the tops of telephone poles.
My lone campsite in the Kalahari was seven miles outside of Pofadder, the last town before the final 100 mile stretch into Springbok. I'd only used half of the two-and-a-half gallons of water (20 pounds worth) in the 87 mile stretch from Kakamas, but I fully restocked. The young black woman who served me wondered if my ride across the Kalahari was a "competition." She's not the first person to ask such a question in my travels here. It's hard for people to realize that someone would want to do such a thing simply for the pleasure or adventure of it. She also asked, "You are not afraid?" That too has been a common question along with, "Have you been robbed?"
Just outside of Pofadder was another sign warning motorists that only authorized vehicles were allowed to test their speed. Twenty miles further there was a surprise water spigot alongside the road. It was only nine a.m. and not too hot. I was in no great need, not even to top off a water bottle, but I did take advantage of it to soak my head and shirt and give myself a wash. No one had mentioned the spigot, not the bus drivers or tourist offices or anyone else I asked about shade and water between Upington and Springbok.
I almost wished there hadn't been one, as it had me hoping I might come upon another later in the day when the temperatures were extreme. I was debating whether I wanted a car to pull over up ahead, as it could mean either someone stopping to offer me drink or someone who wished to liberate me of my valuables. If they meant me harm, it would have to be extreme, as it would be too easy to identify them from their license plates. I cringed when a car with two young black men pulled into a rest area I was stopped at. But they had stopped to scavenge parts from a recent nearby car accident. For fifteen minutes they walked up and down the road one hundred yards in both directions looking for debris.
At the last rest area, 23 miles before Springbok, at about three in the afternoon, a car pulled in. It was a white woman who didn't speak when she got out of her car, but rather went directly to her trunk and popped it open. After rummaging around for a minute or so, she approached me with a bag of ice and a cold sports drink. I was so amazed and startled, I didn't know what to say other than asking if she was a cyclist and if she had ever ridden the Argus. Her son was an ardent cyclist and had left that very day to go to Cape Town for the big ride. She said she hoped to do it next year. After she filled two of my water bottles with ice she said, "I have some food for you too." She returned to her car and brought me three hot dogs, four sticks of beef jerky, a peach and a pear. This was so overwhelming I didn't think to ask if this was just a coincidence or if she had seen me earlier or heard about me and sought me out. She was a good Samaritan of few words and didn't ask a single question of me.
I had been reveling even before this miracle offering. With only 23 of the 233 miles of the Kalahari remaining I had as well completed it. Even if the winds turned on me, I knew I ought to be able to survive those final 23 miles. But despite the cold drinks and bonus calories, those last miles weren't as easy as I had hoped. The heat had finally gotten to me and I was feeling faint and weak. Then the terrain turned into a prolonged climb and at the same time the wind switched, forcing me to truly earn those final miles. I was ready to collapse when I arrived in Springbok shortly before six p.m. I went straight to a supermarket and bought a two liter bottle of Guava juice and a bag of ice and drank and drank and drank, first the juice, then water, until I had used up all the ice. I barely had energy to respond to the several beggars who came by, one from Namibia who said he needed money to return home.
I wondered how much of a struggle it would be to stay awake for six hours until the midnight bus for the final 500 miles to Cape Town arrived. But the drink revived me, deterring my body from going into total collapse as it had threatened.
Later, George

The Eastern Subterranean Termite is the most common type found in New Jersey, but there are several different
members of a colony and they can look different from one another. The most likely termite you will see if an infestation is already in play is a worker. These are the tough guys of the colony; they are larger and their job is to protect the others from ants. They are typically orange, and around 1/4" long. Their bodies are flat and they have long, sharp mandibles on their head. The other type of Subterranean Termite you might notice if there is a colony nearby is a swarmer. These guys look like flying ants, with the exception of their waist. An ant has a slender one, while a swarming termite has a broad waist about the same as the rest of their body. They typically grow to about 1/4" long.
What do termites do?
Termites eat wood. And hence, they cause terrible, irreparable damage to wooden framed structures. They have evolved over millions of years to be able to survive incredible difficulties including lack of food or water for extended periods of time, heat, cold, and—get this—a termite can even live for almost 5 days without its head! So thinking you can outwit these guys is simply wrong. The best way to deal with termites is to avoid them in the first place.
What should I do if I see a termite?
If you see a termite in or around your home, the best course of action is to call a pest control professional right away. Having been in the survival game for 250 million years has given these insects a quick reaction time, so disturbing them could mean that they will abandon the initial site and move on to a safer, more hidden place where you likely won't find them until too late. You can call Ace Walco any time to schedule a free, no-obligation inspection. We will schedule it at your convenience and our friendly professionals will have a look and discuss your options for mitigation.

Princess Buttercup and I were driving along Huntsville I565 on today's beautiful, sunny, temperate afternoon. I saw something that looked like a piece of wood go under my car's hood, and "Bang! Pow! Bang-a-bang-a-bang-a," came a sound from my car's undercarriage. Princess Buttercup yelled, "What happened! What happened!" as I put on my blinker and carefully steered to the right lane and then onto the shoulder of the interstate highway.
What had I run over?
I never did find out, but I found a rectangle slashed from the rear tire.
Princess Buttercup and I got away from the road and called my Knight in Shining Armor, Lefty.
Fortunately, we weren't more than 15 minutes from Lefty's work place. He drove to where we were stranded, changed the tire, and then we went to get a new one…not a small expense.
I thank God that we were both okay and our car didn't flip over like the one in the 1970's pilot episode of "The Incredible Hulk."
