Rooftops are often overlooked when it comes to design and architecture, but this should not be the case. In fact, with a little bit of imagination and creativity, a rooftop can be a very savvy space that completely extends your living area and gives you access to views that you otherwise wouldn't be privy to.
This is why today at homify, we've put together 12 fabulous rooftop ideas from top professionals from around the world. These will inspire you to transform your rooftop into something far more functional and far more stylish.
These little nifty tips and tricks are also easy to implement and will leave you itching to get started on your own rooftop design and decor.
Let's take a look!
A pergola adds a subtle form of shelter to a rooftop terrace or balcony, while adding a stylish twist to the design. You can also hang plants, lanterns or flowers from a pergola, enhancing the beauty of this space.
Have a look at this article: How to build a pergola: a step-by-step guide.
Wood is a great material for a pergola, adding a warm and earthy touch to a rooftpo.
Integrating nature into design and decor is always a great idea, adding subtle and refreshing beauty to a space. A rooftop terrace is no exception!
Add a patch of lawn, some plants, flowers and pots for an inspirational space that makes you feel at one with nature.
Don't be afraid to add some bold and bright colours to your rooftop, like these designers have done. A bright red chair or a gorgeous yellow wall can create a rooftop that really makes a statement. Paired with neutral flooring and green plants and trees, this is the ultimate combination.
While your rooftop will need to feature some durable and sustainable furniture, don't be afraid to go for modern pieces that convert your rooftop into a comfortable and cosy additional living area.
In this image, we can see how circular chairs have been paired with plush cushions, which create the ideal outdoor area for relaxing with a good book or entertaining friends. The cushions can be moved inside when this area is not in use.
Strategically place little lights on your rooftop so that they will enhance the details of the space. Use them to illuminate bushes, plants and flowers as well as create a beautiful soft ambiance that is warm, romantic and appealing in the evening.
In South Africa, we are lucky enough to have incredible surrounds, whether we live by the sea, in the highveldt or near the mountains.
Your rooftop gives you access to the surrounding landscape so allow this to truly be the focal point. With fresh air and sunshine, the views become the ultimate beauty.
Wood is a great material for the flooring of your terrace as it is non-slip and durable, lasting in all weather conditions.
As we can see in this design, it is also classic and timeless and will stay in fashion for many years to come. It works well with any type of furniture or design too!
Introduce raw materials into your rooftop design for a very natural yet edgy and sophisticated look and feel.
In this image, we can see how a wooden deck complements the large stones that surround it. This further contrasts with the glass railings and the plants and trees.
Have a look at these tips for making your home roar with raw materials.
A rooftop is the ultimate place to entertain friends and family—without messing up your home! Why not build a bar area where you can serve cocktails, glasses of wine and cappuccinos?
You'll have the best view in the city too!
If you have the space, install a swimming pool on your rooftop. This will make the space even more functional and give you a spot to cool down in summer.
Imagine relaxing in the cool water with views of the surrounds!
As South Africans, we love an opportunity to braai outside in the fresh air. Install a braai area on your rooftop for the perfect outdoor cooking area.
Have a look at these 14 braais you'll want this summer for inspiration.
Just because it's outdoors doesn't mean it needs to be devoid of character and charm. Use this space to allow your personality to show. Add decor elements, cushions and rugs as well as anything else that represents who you are and what you enjoy.
If you've enjoyed this article, you'll also love these 7 wonderful roof terrace ideas.

The Bible can be like a good and trusted friend we take for granted. We know the friend is loyal, always there to help us, and ready with worthwhile advice. Nevertheless we might avoid going to the friend because we have been absent for too long, we don't feel worthy to approach, or we think our friend will preach at us with do's and don'ts.
This session isn't designed to teach you everything there is to know about the bible. Rather, its purpose is to help give you a sense of scripture as God's word, ready to speak to you in your deepest concerns. This session is meant to help you feel comfortable enough with the Bible that you will be able to approach its pages as you would a good friend.

'Coronation Street' star Graeme Hawley broke down in tears as he paid tribute to his on-screen wife at his leaving party.
The actor - who plays serial killer John Stape - is being written out of the ITV1 soap in an explosive storyline which will see him fake his own death, and at his farewell celebration in Manchester, Graeme praised Jennie McAlpine, calling her his "rock".
He said: "I couldn't have done it without you."
An insider added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Everyone had a lump in their throat as Graeme told Jennie she'd been his rock. He also told us, 'I love you all'."
"He doesn't know what the future holds and said 'If it has to be the dole, the dole it is. But if it's bigger things they will not beat the years I have had with you guys'."
Jennie has previously revealed she doesn't want Graeme to leave the show because she will miss him on set.
She explained: "I don't want the storyline to end - I'd be really sad if Graeme wasn't here. We've got really nice chemistry with Sam Aston, who plays Chesney, and Georgia May Foote - it would just knock the balance off.
"I'd love to see John and Fiz's marriage survive despite everything ... but I'm not sure it can."

Running your own business is a very difficult undertaking. The competition is getting difficult. Newcomers keep coming. They bring a better product or service.
It becomes the reason why they keep learning about how to keep their business. And for small business, a bigger effort to survive in current business competition is truly required.
The best way to make it happen is branding. It is an effort to make customers loyal to your business. At least this is the main purpose of branding. To start off the branding for your business, it can be done by building website. Some people consider website as a media for them to promote or display their products, when in fact, it is not as simple as that. Building correct web design means that you build your brand.
For that purpose, there are some modern elements for web design to be implemented in your business website. They play as tools to help you branding your business.
First is about the strong color palette. For modern web design, color plays a very important role. And it is strongly recommended for you to choose a strong color palette. Using this pallete of colors helps you to emerge cohesiveness about anything that you use in your business.
Nevertheless, you have to be selective when it comes to colors. Don't use too many of them since they will distract the viewers. If you want to apply more than one color, try to use no more than three colors.
The next thing you have to be careful about is the design of your website. It is recommended for you to have a design which you're sure about the customers' fondness over it. Don't forget about the fact that your design also helps the branding of your product, so ensure that the design that you make for your website is original that you mustn't steal your competitor web design idea. Just stay focus on having certain research about who your customers are and what they like the most in terms of design.
Also, don't forget to make your website a user-friendly one in order for your customers' conveniences and search engine as well.
All in all, you have to think carefully about everything related to web design. Don't use it as a media to offer your product. Use it for branding at the same time. Consult with Web Design Brisbane if you have no idea what you should do about designing your website.

Green tomatoes - a truly useful product, reports The Hindu. It turned out that tomatoes contain a large number of cometidine, stimulating the process of muscle growth and increase muscle strength. In addition, tomaten protects muscles from exhaustion and helps with dystrophy.
Muscle atrophy - associated disease. Most often it occurs in cancer, trauma and heart failure. Muscular dystrophy leads to fatigue, decreased quality of life, increased risk of fractures and falls. Substance Tomatin is a great tool in case of muscular atrophy. Tomaten modifies the activity of gene expression. It stops the mechanism of degeneration of muscle fibers.
Substance scientists tested. Studied the effect of cometidine muscles skeletal muscles. During testing, the scientists made this discovery: tomatoes stimulated the growth of muscle fibers in the laboratory. It is obvious that similar processes occur in the human body.

The regulatory basis of justice in Ukraine is represented by the Constitution that sets forth that justice in the country may be exercised exclusively by courts. Delegation or assumption of the courts' functions by any other authority is prohibited. Also, according to the Constitution, the courts have competence over any legal dispute or criminal charge, and establishment of extraordinary courts is not allowed. The Constitution contains a separate chapter that addresses fundamentals of the justice, courts, and judges functioning in the country, such as independence of justice, the general structure of a court system, jurisdictions, qualification requirements and status of judges and the main principles of justice. The President of the country appoints judges to the office based on the application made by the Supreme Сouncil of Justice.
A court resolution is mandatory and binding for any person in the territory of the country.
The Supreme Сouncil of Justice is the highest body that manages matters related to justice (except the administration of justice itself), such as, for example, submissions to the President for the appointment of judges, disciplinary sanctions on judges or state attorneys, permissions for the arrest of a judge, suspensions of judges, etc.
There is also the Law "On Justice System and Judges", which is a key enactment that regulates organisation and functioning of courts in Ukraine. This law sets forth that, inter alia, judgments, court hearings, and information about court cases are open to public observation, and any person can attend a court hearing and make an audio or video recording of it except in specifically provided exclusions from this rule or when the court rules for the closed hearing on good reason.
The judiciary system of Ukraine consists of courts of the first instance (local courts), courts of appeals, and the Supreme Court of Ukraine. The courts are also divided by specialisation – Civil, Criminal, Commercial and Administrative, as per clause 18 of the Law "On Justice System and Judges". At the same time, as of May 2019, there is also the High Anti-Corruption Court and the High Court on intellectual property matters, and the Constitutional Court of Ukraine functioning in the country, each of which represents separate specialisation.
Between 2016–2018 in Ukraine, we have seen the continuation of the process referred to as the "Judicial reform". It started with the introduction of several fundamental restatements and innovations in the laws regulating the judicial system organisationally – in particular amendments to the Constitution of Ukraine relating to justice functions, the Law "On High Council of Justice", restatement of the Law "On Justice System and Judges" – and had been developing further by the restatement of the major laws on procedures. Thus, the Codes of Civil Procedure, of Administrative Procedure and of Commercial Procedure have undergone complete restatements; the law on the "High Anticorruption Сourt" has been enacted.
This process of reforming the judicial system and procedures has resulted in some substantial changes in the respective areas and appears to have been aimed at improving justice efficiency, independence, and transparency of the courts, the optimisation of judicial procedures and raising their productivity.
According to the Ukrainian Constitution, the courts of Ukraine have jurisdiction over all and any disputes arising in the country. Therefore, a situation where a claimant has no competent court to consider a case is unlikely to happen. However, the prevailing opinion among the Ukrainian public for years has been that courts in the country are often biased and even corrupt, and are not an effective instrument to exercise justice. Parties that face litigation usually prepare for a prolonged process with an outcome that is hardly predictable, even for those who have reason to feel they are on the right side. For example, according to the public opinion survey, conducted in October 2018 by the "New Justice" Program with the support of the USAID, only 16% of the surveyed respondents expressed trust in the judiciary system of the country (but this, however, demonstrated an increase in trust to judiciary from 5% in 2015).
Courts of each jurisdiction have their instance levels and territorial competence, except for the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, which is a separate (and the only) judicial authority to hear constitutional cases, and whose resolutions are not the subject of review by the Supreme Court of Ukraine or any other authority. Establishment of a separate Anti-Corruption Court is a part of the judicial reform and anti-corruption efforts, prompted more by the international institutions, such as the IMF and the World Bank, than by domestic stakeholders. Though Ukrainian policymakers were fast at assuming the merits of passing the law on the Anti-Corruption Court, both local and international communities have observed anxiously the consistent efforts of the legislature to stall the process of the law passing and dilute the law itself. Moreover, the mere fact that the Anti-Corruption Court has been perceived as a necessary instrument to fight corruption in the country speaks of the inability of all the other numerous courts to cope with it.
Judicial consideration of most disputes starts in the courts of the first instance. Administrative courts consider disputes arising out of public-private relations, i.e. when a private law person or entity has a conflict with a public law entity. Commercial courts consider cases arising out of commercial activity, where disputing parties may be entities as well as individuals engaged in some sort of business activity, plus some specific cases, e.g. corporate disputes, insolvency cases, disputes relating to titles on securities, antitrust disputes, and some others. Civil courts have competence over all other disputes, some administrative disputes and also handle criminal cases. Proceedings in courts are governed by respective Codes of the procedure – the named above Codes and the Criminal Process Code. Courts of appeal consider cases that have been heard by the courts of the first instance and based on the evidence and arguments presented by the parties during the first instance hearing unless it is proven that presentation of the new materials had been impossible earlier for sound reasons. Courts of cassation consider cases only within the limits of the submitted statement of cassation. The Judicial Reform has led to the three formerly existing separate courts of cassation being eliminated and transfer of all cassation authority to the Supreme Court.
Some categories of disputes are heard by courts of appeal or even by the Supreme Court as the court of the first instance. For example, the Administrative Court of Appeal in Kyiv would consider cases arising out of challenging the Central Elections Commission acts, or actions of presidential candidates and their trustees, as a first instance court. The Supreme Court, as a first instance court, would consider cases arising out of challenging the Central Elections Commission resolutions on the results of elections or referendum, actions or inactivity of the President, the Parliament and some other entities and early termination of an MP's powers. Civil courts of appeal consider cases arising out of challenging the awards of the arbitration courts and sanctioning of enforcement of the arbitration awards. In cases where a court of appeal considered a case as a court of the first instance, the Supreme Court would hear the case as a court of the appellate instance.
The ultimate level for cassation appeals in the country is the Supreme Court of Ukraine and appeals are admissible there only for specific type of cases, which do not include, for example, so-called "insignificant cases". There is also a possibility to initiate judicial review of a case after the final judgment has been made and even enforced, if new circumstances pertaining to the case have been discovered and such circumstances would have had influenced the outcome of the hearing substantially had they been found at the time of the hearing – this procedure has its specific rules and limitations, set forth by the process laws. As a rule, judgments of the courts of the first instance come into force and become enforceable either upon the lapse of the time for appeal or, if appealed, after a court of appeals upholds the resolution on the case, delivered by the court of the first instance. Judgments of the appellate courts come into force immediately at proclamation.
The Ukrainian courts have broad authorities as to the management of the cases they consider. In particular, courts may adjourn hearings in some cases, determine a procedure for hearing a case, suspend a proceeding, hold a hearing outside of the court premises, join or split proceedings, etc. Of course, this may be done only on good reason, provided by the law. The restated Codes of procedure have structured the process more strictly. In particular, the concept of a preparatory proceeding has received more weight and become more important in the process. While the Codes set forth three months as the maximum term for hearing a case in the court of the first instance, preparatory procedure takes up two of these three months, and the idea is that with the end of the preparatory procedure the parties will lose the right to submit new arguments related to the substance of the case, unless it will be well grounded that arguments were unavailable to a party during the preparatory procedure. At the same time, courts may act in strict compliance with the process laws only, and cannot operate in a way that is not set forth directly by the law of procedure. While hearing cases, the courts issue: a) definitive resolutions that settle disputes, order actions or confirm facts that have legal consequences; and b) procedural orders, rulings, etc. that are instruments of the proceedings' management. Ukrainian names for resolutions and orders depend on the kind of proceeding, court jurisdiction, the composition of the court (one judge or a panel) and the instance of proceeding (first, appellate or cassation). Apart from that, some courts are authorised to issue "separate rulings" that may be addressed to any person regarding whom a court has identified an illegal activity, and requesting such person to terminate violations of the law. Moreover, by issuing a separate ruling, in some cases, a court can initiate the start of a criminal investigation.
Process laws set forth quite short run-through terms for consideration of disputes, except criminal process, where an appropriate run-through term in the first instance is determined as "reasonable". In Civil, Administrative and Commercial proceedings, courts of the first instance must resolve the case within 90 days from the commencement of the procedure, as a general rule for disputes resolution; in the appellate and cassations instances – within 60 days. Theoretically, most disputes may be resolved in the first, appellate and cassation instances during a four-to-five month period; however, in practice, this usually takes from one to three years. Commercial and Administrative courts are somewhat faster than Civil Courts, but it is a very rare occasion when a court considers a case faster than within six months.
Notwithstanding the recent changes in Ukraine and the reform aimed at raising the standards of justice, the courts are still seen by the majority of Ukrainians as corrupt and incompetent (following various public opinion polls). The Judicial Reform, at its beginning, was viewed as a chance to improve the situation and raise the trustworthiness of the judicial system. According to the new version of the Law "On Justice System and Judges", which came into effect in September 2016, a special non-governmental organ has been created as an aid to the High Qualification Commission of Judges – its name can be translated from Ukrainian as the "Public Integrity Council". This Council has been composed of representatives of NGOs, advocates, scholars, and journalists who respond to certain criteria and have gone through the defined selection procedure. The Council's function is to evaluate judges in the process of qualification testing and give recommendations to the High Qualification Commission of Judges.
In March 2018, the Public Integrity Council even declared that it was terminating cooperation with the High Qualification Commission of Judges because the latter systematically overruled, by the qualified majority, recommendations of the Council and admitted through the tests judges who did not qualify according to the Councils criteria of integrity. Another obstacle to the progress of the judiciary functioning had been the President of the country, incumbent in 2014–2019, who systematically breached a 30-day period of appointment of the newly qualified judges, stipulated by the law – in some cases, the President stayed the signing of the appointment decrees for years, without having any justification for that. At the same time, as of March 2019, there have been 2,116 vacant judiciary seats across the country. In other words, the effort to make the judges' qualification system transparent to society has obviously failed.
It would be inappropriate to say that the courts of Ukraine are entirely malfunctioning. Also, a good attorney usually can, if not fully eliminate the flaws of the judiciary, then substantially reduce these flaws by accurate and consistent actions.

Claremont police this morning found three vehicles with windows that had been shot with a BB gun.
An officer was patrolling near the corner of Lafayette Road and Purdue Drive about 4:30 a.m. when he saw the vandalism, said Claremont police Lt. Mike Ciszek.
The officer was unable to find any other vehicles that had been vandalized.
Police are unsure if the incidents are related to a rash of BB gun vandalism incidents that occurred earlier this month in Claremont, Rancho Cucamonga, Upland and Fontana.

07 Mar Is poor posture causing your pain? Physiotherapy can help!
Do you have a desk job? Do you have to sit for long periods? Do you develop pain in your hips, back shoulders or neck during your work day? Has your posture been assessed by a physiotherapist or chiropractor recently?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions then you may be struggling with poor posture and need a physiotherapy or chiropractic assessment.
As a society, we are becoming more and more sedentary in our home and our work lives. This can lead to a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. Prolonged poor posture forces our bodies into positions that they are not designed to be in. This forces muscles to start doing jobs that they are not designed to do. When this happens there is always a consequence and that usually involves pain and discomfort.
This can be wide ranging from minor aches and pains in the neck and shoulders to severe and constant headaches. Stiffness in the joint and muscles from prolonged poor postures can also increase your risk of suffering acute injuries when doing manual labour, exercising or playing sport.
Here are a few tips that you can try in order to improve your posture:
- The top of your computer monitor should be level with your eyes
- If you work off a laptop, get a detachable keyboard and place your laptop on something to lift the screen up without affecting your ability to type
- The 90 degrees rule- your ankles, knees, hips, and elbows should all be sitting at 90 degrees
- Get a good sturdy chair with a decent back support
- Another really good thing to incorporate into your day is to not remain in the one position for too long.
Even those with good core strength and control will struggle to remain in the same position for hours at a time. Even taking the time to go get a glass of water, go to the photocopier or the bathroom is beneficial giving your postural muscles a rest.
If you still struggle, you may need a specific exercise program to strengthening up your core muscles. Speak to one of our therapists today.

IMA Newsletter May 31 2019
IMA Board Meets with Bishop Eaton, Secretary Boerger
On February 19, the IMA Board met in Chicago with ELCA Secretary Chris Boerger, who had formerly been IMA's Advisory Bishop (a advisory bishop is appointed by the ELCA Conference of Bishops to certain organizations in the ELCA). Later that same afternoon, ELCA Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton was kind enough to join the IMA Board for another meeting.

2019 Dues are Due! IMA Dues are $60 per year. Dues may be paid by check mailed to the IMA Treasurer: Rev. Robert Hansen, 601 N. Sagehorn Dr, P.O.Box 535, Hartford SD 57033 or paid by PayPal or credit card through the NALIP website, www.NALIP.NET. On that website, click on IMA, then click on Membership, then click on Online.
Meeting with Secretary Boerger. The IMA Board has a traditional once-a-year IMA Board meeting in Chicago, going back at least to 2006. The annual Chicago conference has always included a meeting with the Secretary or top assistant (except 2018). In our meeting, Secretary Boerger covered a large number of topics. Two seem of particular relevance to Interim Pastors. The ELCA continues to have a serious shortage of pastors coming out of our seminaries. The number graduating is less that half the number needed to fill the fully-funded openings in our 65 synods. According to Secretary Boerger, this means that interim terms tend to be longer, because of the lack of full-time candidates available. The other major problem is that more and more congregations are becoming fragile financially. They may not be able to afford a full-time interim. Which means, in many cases, that they cannot afford a full-time pastor at the completion of the interim period. The Board agreed that these problems are being faced in many synods.
Meeting with Presiding Bishop Eaton. This year was the first time that the Presiding Bishop had joined us. It was a pleasure to meet with Bishop Eaton and discuss intentional interim ministry. She mentioned that she herself had one poor experience in her synod before becoming Presiding Bishop with a particular interim pastor. That experience had made a bad impression on her at the time, but she realized that it shouldn't be generalized to other interim pastors. She was very supportive of interim ministry and would be happy to be of assistance to us.
Conference of Bishops. IMA Board Chair Rick Klafehn also spoke to The Rev. Walter May, Assistant to the Presiding Bishop and Executive, Synodical Relations, about IMA's desire to have another advisory bishop appointed, if that was possible. Pastor May functions as the main contact between the churchwide office and the Conference of Bishops. Pastor Klafehn also prepared a note to the Synod Bishops for the biennial meeting of the Conference of Bishops, which was occurring the following week.
Separation from NALIP. The IMA Board discussed the progress of the planned separation of IMA from NALIP. The IMA Board has approved the separation. The remaining step is the approval by the Board of the Interim Ministry Conference (the similar group in the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod). Once their approval is secured, the NALIP reorganization plan can be completed. NALIP plans to re-name itself the Lutheran Transitional Ministry Association and become an association of individual Lutheran pastors instead of a group formed from two associations (IMA and IMC).
Separate Conferences of IMN and NALIP in 2019. For the first time, the two national interim pastor conferences (IMA and NALIP) will be held separately in 2019. The NALIP Conference will be held at the usual time in June (June 18-20) at the Maritime Institute in Linthicum MD. The IMN Conference will be held November 11-14 2019, also at the Maritime Institute. IMN decided to change the timing of its conference to avoid conflicts with other church conferences.
Annual Meeting of IMA-ELCA. The official Annual Membership Meeting of the Interim Ministry Association of the ELCA must be held at the June 2019 NALIP Conference. However, the IMA Board will find a way to elect IMA Board Members at both conferences in 2019. Assuming the separation occurs between IMA and NALIP, the location of future Annual Membership Meetings will be changed in an appropriate way.
NALIP Executive Director Ken Ruppar Hospitalized. The IMA Board prayed for Ken Ruppar, who has recently been hospitalized. No further information is available at this time.
Portico Program for Intentional Interim Pastors. IMA members are very pleased with Portico for providing a dedicated expert in dealing with intentional interim pastors since January 2017. Andrew Feller can be reached at 612.752.4060, or 800.352.2876 ext. 4060, fax 612.752.5060, or [email protected]. The original Portico announcement is attached. (Dan, in case you don't have it handy.

I dare say most of us do not have to contend with celebrity so immense that it consumes our private lives and distorts our view of the world.
I dare say most of us do not have to contend with celebrity so immense that it consumes our private lives and distorts our view of the world. Judy Garland, born Frances Gumm, was a celebrity of such magnitude for such a long time that as her star began to fade she found herself unable to deal with ordinary living.
It is this tormented Judy that Larry Marsland presents to the Cotuit Center for the Arts audience in his one-man play, Night Falls on Emerald City, based upon a single night in Boston a year before she died at age 47 on June 22, 1969. The play takes place in a hotel room after a concert at the Back Bay Theater for which Marsland was an usher. It speculates upon the reason Garland never showed up for her scheduled appearance the following evening. Her conflicts unroll largely through dialog from her end of a telephone call series.
Although the subject of this play concerns the descent of a demon-filled miasma, it is clear that Marsland is a Garland admirer. Even so, he grasps the contradictions in her perceived persona. "To some she is Dorothy searching for that magical place the dreams that you dare to dream really do exist… To others she is a narcissistic, self-destructive addict who burned the candle at both ends."
However you might view her, there is no denying that Judy connected with audiences. Marsland describes an artist who "had the ability to make each song her own song because she was willing to risk singing from the heart rather than the head." Like you, I felt her pull from seats in movie theaters. I also was able to bathe in her charisma at the Carnegie Hall concert in 1961, when I was a senior in college. Additionally, I was fortunate to meet her twice, seeing only the friendly, charming side of her and not any of the destruction.
In his play Marsland offers a super star at the sordid tail end of her career. He shows someone wrestling with her former self, little Francis, with crumbling fame, and with the neglect of those that once fawned. His presentation evokes sympathy, even empathy as his love of Judy shines through the decay. He allows us to see a poignant search for Garland's own Emerald City 29 years after her third film, The Wizard Of Oz, which she made at age 17.
Much of the play's dialog involves attempt to flee to New York City. She hopes to stay with her daughter, Liza Minnelli, now a budding Broadway talent. Judy hopes to recharge her batteries in an apartment on the 14th floor of 400 West End Avenue. I know that because a year and a half after the incident depicted in this play my wife, three of our eventual four children, and I moved into the apartment just below. Liza had recently departed.
Those of you with affection or compassion for Judy Garland will find Larry Marsland's play a moving experience.
Night Falls on Emerald City is at the Couit Center for the Arts on Route 28 July 16 and Aug. 6, 13, 20 and 27 at 8 p.m. For tickets ($12), go to www.cotuitarts.org or call 508-428-0669.

Discovering Alternative Treatments: Myofascial Release for Chronic Pain From: Hope Instilled What is Myofascial Release? Myofascial release also known as myofascial therapy, is a type of massage/stretch done to relieve soft tissue restrictions that are sensitive or tight causing pain. Myofascial comes from the word fascia, which is a strong connective tissue that is web-like and runs throughout the entire body surrounding every muscle, bone, nerve blood vessel and organ on a cellular level. What Chronic Pain Conditions does it help with? Many people find myofascial release therapy helpful in treating injuries that cause a loss of flexibility or function following an injury. It can also be a result of post-surgical scarring, poor posture, trauma, or repetitive movements. However, it can help anyone experiencing ongoing back, shoulder, hip, or other pain in soft tissue areas. Learn more about what is is, how it works, how it helps with chronic pain, how safe it is, the history of it, scientific proof, how to find a good practitioner, self-myofascial release, and what to expect at the initial appointment on our website.
Exploring Wellness: Listening to Your Body "Our health should be priority number one, but that doesn't always happen. Part of the reason I may have gotten sick is because I didn't listen to my body and prioritize my health over everything else. I didn't drink enough water, even when my body was telling me it was dehydrated. I drank too many sugary beverages. I didn't focus on my posture and stretching, even though I was experiencing back pain in college. I also let stress consume me, instead of realizing it didn't help my situation or improve anything. But, now I listen." - Jena Ann 8 Ways to Learn to Listen to Your Body
We often hear people say that in order to be healthy, we should listen to our bodies. But what does that mean? How do we do that? This blog post will share eight ways that you can start 'tuning in' to your body.
For use as a topical application, mix 2 tablespoons of ground turmeric with water. When taking internally, there are three forms that can be taken daily; 0.5-1.5 teaspoons of dried root powder, 250 mg of the supplement form, or 400-600 mg of extract. Try keeping a jar of the powdered spice in the kitchen and use in place of salt or pepper.

Elastic decoupling of lift systems
Excellent decoupling results with Sylomer® and double elastic Isotop® SE-DE elements
Lifts are used to transport individuals or loads between two or more levels in a moving cabin. During operation, the starting, stopping and general movement of the cabin generates vibrations that are transmitted to the structure of the building and perceived as structure-borne noise.
The bearing of the drive and cables in particular using Sylomer® and double elastic Isotop® SE-DE elements can achieve excellent decoupling results. Solutions with Isotop® SE-DE meet the requirements of bearing class EL3 in accordance with VDI 2566. Most solutions are implemented with natural frequencies of between 10 and 15 Hz. It is highly recommended that appropriate decoupling measures are considered right from the start, during the planning and design phase of the lift system.
- Maintenance-free bearing
- Elements for different installation heights and load ranges
- More than 40 years of experience with lift builders

Mouth-Watering Banana Raita
We always want to cook something easy, tasty and healthy as well. So, let's talk about raita, a rich mouthwatering food item of Indian subcontinent. This recipe is almost famous in every state in India, some parts of Pakistan and yes Bangladesh and Nepal.
1)Yogurt or yoghurt (Dahi) (250 gm)
2)Ripe bananas (2)
3)Dry red chili (1)
4)Curry leaves
5)Cumin seeds (half tablespoon)
6)Salt (as per your taste)
7)Sugar (as per your taste)
Step 1:
Heat a pan and fry cumin seeds without oil. Once it gets fried properly, make powder of it.
Step 2:
Now cut bananas into small pieces and add lemon juice into it. Mix them properly and keep aside.
Step 3:
Take yogurt in a bowl and stir it nicely. Now, add salt and sugar and again stir them. After that add those small pieces of bananas and mix them. Keep this aside for a while.
Step 4:
Heat oil in a pan and add one red dry chili, mustard seeds and curry leaves. Fry them for sometime and then turn off the flame. Now, you have to add this into that yogurt and Banana. And at last, add that fried cumin seed powder (which you kept aside). Do not mix them now. Cover the bowl and keep it in refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes in refrigerator, take the bowl out, open the cover and mix it nicely. Now, serve your mouthwatering raita at lunch table.

In Writer's
Workshop, especially in Upper Elementary, students organize
their thoughts to write about any topic and develop it into an
understandable narrative with a voice and focus that catches the
interest of the reader. The Writer's Workshop format includes
planning (with peer conferencing), brainstorming revision, teacher editing,
and direct instruction in the mechanics of grammar.
Upper Elementary
students are able to use writing mechanics comfortably and the
shift in their cognitive abilities to higher order thinking
allows them to develop a more sophisticated sense of what makes
good writing. While it is still important to allow students to
choose a topic, students are now ready to learn about other
types of writing.
Many of my
ideas are based on
Traits Strategy Page.
Please view this page for more ideas.
Model and Structure
up your classroom
What I do
Mini Lessons
Seven Traits
Writing Prompts
Seven Traits
Revision Guide
Forms of Writing
Proofreading Symbols
I use the writing workshop as
an opportunity to Guide my students along a continuum. This workshop
is intended to be a five week long [or more if you want ]
teaching unit that invites students to write so that meaning is made
through connections with, themselves, the world they live in and
their favorite authors' styles of writing.
My GOAL is
to take students from dependency to independency,
where they can make their own decisions about what
they will write and how they will
effective writing workshop is taught in
increments over several weeks
or broken into sections over the year.
Conventions of sentence structure are taught
early and followed by paragraphing and essay
type writing. Vocabulary building and dictionary
and thesaurus
usage is mandatory
There are seven important
strategies that all writers must be able to apply to text in order to
communicate their ideas. The seven strategies are: Voice, Ideas
and Content, Sentence fluency, word choice, organization and
conventions. Presentation is not a trait of writing, but
it is a component of publishing your writing. It is a very important final step.

I knew it was a bad idea, but I couldn't help myself. On an early December flight from London to JFK, I watched the movie Love Actually. And I cried all the way back to New York.
Love Actually has long been one of my favorite movies. It's also really, really sad. While most of the film's characters get a (mostly) happy ending, the movie is chock full of bittersweet or downright depressing storylines, involving unrequited love, infidelity and grief. But maybe that's why I like it so much; Love Actually acknowledges a simple, yet often glossed-over truth: for some people, the holidays are not a happy time.
I've always loved Christmas. And nobody did Christmas better than my mother. From her carefully-guarded sugar cookie recipe to the carols and homemade gingerbread houses and scented candles that filled our home, to the delight she took in decorating a towering evergreen tree, my Mom singlehandedly made Christmas my favorite holiday. And try as I might to remain festive, Christmas just hasn't been the same since she died.
I suppose it's inevitable that a season revolving around gathering family and friends together would also serve as a painful reminder of loved ones lost. If the "most wonderful time of the year" is less than wonderful for you, know this: you're not alone. Here are a few things that make me feel better when I'm struggling to get into the holiday spirit:
Reach out. This is a tough one for me. I've always been self-sufficient, and asking for help is hard. But here are two things I've learned: 1.) People don't know you need help unless you ask them, and 2.) Your friends and family want to help you, because guess what? They care about you. So, if you're having a hard time, say something. Pick up the phone. Make a coffee or a dinner or a movie date. And if you're simply too busy to get together, send a text. It's amazing how a simple, "I'm thinking about you and wanted to say hello," can lift someone's day.
While I'm on the subject of reaching out, I recently re-discovered the lost art of letter writing. I'm long-distance pen pals with a couple of friends who live several states away, and I can't tell you the delight I feel when I open the mailbox and find a handwritten note from one of them. And it's just as much fun to write letters as it is to receive them. This holiday, I'm blocking out a couple of hours to go to the New York Public Library and write letters. Time consuming? Yes. A bit tedious? Perhaps. But always worth it. And if you're struggling to find the time, consider how much time you spend scrolling through Facebook and Instagram, and you might find more hours in the day than you think.
Do what brings you joy. This seems obvious, but when you're struggling with depression, it can be awfully hard to be good to yourself. My trick: think about how you'd spoil your best friend on their birthday, and do that for yourself. My favorite self-care activities are deep tissue massages and pedicures, but I also find tremendous peace and comfort in spending an hour or two wandering through a museum, or browsing in a bookstore. Be kind to yourself. You deserve it.
Give back. There are plenty of organizations that need volunteers around the holidays, and I'll tell you something: there's nothing like serving food to hungry people in a soup kitchen to gain perspective and realize that your life isn't so bad. Whenever I'm at my lowest, I remember I can still be of service. And if you can't give your time, consider giving money. I can't buy presents for my Mom any more, but I can make a charitable donation in her name to organizations that she cared about, like The Humane Society.
Move. I know. Finding the motivation to exercise when you've got the blues is really tough. But be honest, has there ever been a time when you've dragged yourself to the gym and have regretted it afterwards? Sweating helps. When I really need a lift, I'll make a playlist of cheesy pop songs and dance with abandon in the privacy of my living room. (See Hugh Grant's dance scene in the aforementioned Love Actually if you need inspiration).
And when all else fails, be honest. If the holidays are hard for you, it's nothing to be ashamed of. It's OK to decline the invitation to that party and stay home. It's OK to wrap yourself in a blanket and binge watch Netflix. Give yourself a day or a couple of days to feel how you feel and know it's all right. Remember, your emotions are just like the weather: constantly shifting. And just like the holidays themselves, this too, shall pass.

Being a fan of Bray's earlier A Great and Terrible Beauty series, I was excited to pick up this book and get lost in her writing again. This book was "interesting". By that I mean the plot and story were mostly new and inventive, but some of the characters felt contrived, and many of the characters' mannerisms felt forced. This did not prevent me from picking up the second book and eagerly awaiting the next installment in the series, which is scheduled to drop some time in May this year.
This series follows a few characters, but the character we get to know the best is Evie. The typical 1920's wild-child flapper, Evie gets into trouble in her Ohioian home town and is exiled to New York City to live with her uncle. Her uncle runs a museum affectionately called The Museum of Creepy Crawlies. The museum houses all kinds of artifacts pertaining to supernatural and obscure cult societies. Evie holds what some would say is a super natural power: she is able to touch objects to see their history as well as the owner's past.
In the first book, she employs this skill to help catch a not-so-corporeal serial killer who is trying to bring about the end of the world. The other main characters in this book also possess varying supernatural gifts. The characters are thrown together but create some great bonds through the course of the story. It's wonderful to read the differing points of view of each character while they don't know each others secrets.
Lair of Dreams left me thinking that the first book was better planned out. Evie gains notoriety from the press for her special abilities as a diviner and gets her own show on the radio as well as a certain amount of sensationalized fame. She becomes disconnected from her friends and all their interpersonal relationships start to unravel from there. In the meanwhile, a new threat approaches New York. A sleeping sickness spreads through parts of Chinatown, and the inhabitants of this hamlet are starting to be targeted based on race, similar to what happened to the Japanese community in the 1940's.
In the second book, after the main conflict has concluded, the main characters realize that some kind of "storm" is coming where there will be battles with other supernatural forces and they must band together to fight back. This plot device can be a bit tired in teen literature, but I am nonetheless excited to see where this series will go with the final installment and what kind of statements Bray will make about the world through these characters.
I did not notice until I reread A Great and Terrible Beauty that teen literature has been changing since around 2011 to encompass bigger issues than just the hardships of interpersonal relationships and trying to find a place in the world. The Diviners and Lair of Dreams tackle issues of racism, sexism and homophobia that are relevant to today's society and injustices.
