More about the Avatar State audios
First off, the Avatar State: it's a strong and wide connection. It is much like a wide laser beam, on one hand, that bores through obstacles.
What obstacles? Depending on your vibrational frequency (truth value) you have tens, hundreds, or thousands of obstacles… those are the standards, ideals, and "truths" you live and judge by.
I wrote a sentence in a recent article: "You can't expect to be elegant in mind, elegant in spirit, if your environment isn't."
He read it and went into massive rage and fear, sent me 17 (I counted) emails to prove to me that I am wrong. His vibration is 170. Going into rages like this, fixed focus, nostrils flaring, being stuck and not able to look around, is an obstacle.
I have had one obstacle, that I just recently demolished (I hope that I have demolished it fully, though muscle test says "no"). A standard that 'I should be loved for myself not for what I do.' It has ruined my career, and it's rendered me poor. It makes everyone look ungrateful, unloving, unappreciative… It's an obstacle in the flow of the energy, and it will be blasted, slowly, so it doesn't kill me in the process.
All the untruths that you hold dear or true, all the unrealities that guide your actions or judgments are obstacles.
The connection is the vertical element. The second element of the Avatar State is a horizontal sheet-like element, much like a vibrating rotating saw blade. It harmonizes everything in its reach to its vibration.
That is my vibration that is broadcasted, and therefore it is very important that I am integrated and high vibration. It will be most crucial when your vibration, hopefully, will approach 1000 and your fragmentation 100%. 1Fragmentation is explained here: https://www.yourvibration.com/2790/what-causes-weather-extremes-that-kill-people-floods-earthquakes-tsunamis-draught-cancer-mental-illness-and-other-incurable-diseases-and-conditions/
Now, why am I explaining this? Because you don't want to fully put yourself in the way of such powerful forces as this horizontal and vertical elements: I myself cannot stand it in my normal state: it is jarring, but for you it can be worse than just jarring.
You want the avatar energy reach you but not aimed at you.
On the days when I enter the Avatar State I am all used up, exhausted, confronted, and tolerate less than on "normal" days.
The Avatar State is 1000 vibration, but with a power that multiplies it. I can stand it because I am generating it, directing it, recording it, but could not just stand in it, like you stand in a shower.
One of my students, won't name her, listened directly through her headphones while she was sleeping.
I'd like to compare these energies to a sharp knife. If you use them properly, they cut through the crud and crust and blockages of your self. If you hold the blade as if it were the handle: you will hurt your hand, suffer cuts and bleed.
Use as directed, please.
Instructions: play the audio on an audio player of your choice, preferable on very low volume, or with a headphone just left alone. Do NOT wear the headphones. If you can hear the sound, you are too close to it.
Play it as often as you can. Best to put the audio on loop or repeat mode. You can play it and it is effective, even if you play it at home while you are at work or traveling. It is YOUR audio, and it works on you and for you.
If you can feel energy, you can tell if the player is on or off, even if you are not at home.
I have also re-recorded all the audios and will upload them today, so you won't even feel tempted to try to understand what I am saying. I am not saying anything. In the original audios I was leading my own meditation… but it is not important what I am saying. You are paying for the energy and the transformation it can cause, not my words. Read my words on this blog: this is all about words.
OK: if you have bought any or all of these Avatar State audios, the Harmonize Your vibration, the Abundance Generator, The Cure Procrastination, and the Winning and Keeping Love activator, you'll get an email from each of these programs with instructions on how to download the new audios, plus detailed instructions.
Another issue came up in a conversation: do NOT play two audios at the same time. Like energies do, they either add up or diminish each other. In the case of the Avatar State audios, they diminish, extinguish each other, and you will be left with no change. What a waste!
The only difference among the different audios is one thing: the focus. You can use any of the audios for any of the focus if you have the capacity, the attention span, the decisiveness to pick one focus.

Known as Colombia's northern queen, Cartagena attracts holidaymakers with her colorful cobbled streets, bougainvillea-draped mansions and some of the best food and drink experiences in South America.
But, with an average temperature of 27.7ºC and 2,500 hours of sunshine a year, there's something else visitors can't leave Cartagena without experiencing, and that's a day on the beach.
No matter how many museums, rooftop cocktail bars or boutique shops you plan on ticking off your Cartagena bucket list, you'll want to save at least one day to explore some of Colombia's best beach and snorkeling spots.
But, with more than 120 km of pristine Caribbean coastline to choose from, how do you decide which Cartagena beach day trip is best for you?
That's where This Is Cartagena is on hand to help. We've been scouring every stretch of sand and hidden swimming spot in Colombia for years and our talented team of travel advisors have narrowed down some of our favorite Cartagena beach trips especially for you.
Our popular guide to the best beaches in Cartagena has plenty of useful information to help you find the perfect strip of sand for your group.
From family-friendly Castillogrande to beach club luxury in Tierrabomba, Colombia's diverse Carribean coastline has something to suit every kind of beach bum.
While Bocagrande, the city's busiest and longest beach, is notorious for its crowded sands and persistent touts, in just a few hours you can escape to the more remote, Robinson Crusoe-like beaches of the Rosario Islands, Tierrabomba and the idyllic archipelago of San Bernardo.
Choose from exploring white sands and crystal-clear waters of the Rosario Islands on your own private yacht, mountain biking your way to paradise on the island of Tierrabomba or staying the night in a boutique beach club in Baru.
Whether you're a family looking for adventure or a couple looking for the ultimate island escape, this guide will help you find your perfect beach getaway in Cartagena.
The Rosario Islands – an archipelago made up of 27 small coral islands – is one of the most popular national parks on Colombia's Caribbean coast and the most popular beach day trip in Cartagena.
Surrounded by colorful coral reefs and crystal-clear waters, these idyllic islets offer some of the best snorkeling and diving opportunities in Colombia.
But that's not all: powdery white sands, luxury boutique hotels, and fresh seafood restaurants make this protected natural wonder the perfect place to indulge for the day.
Isla Grande – the largest island of the archipelago – offers some of the best family-friendly beach resorts, where you and the kids can splash around in the oceanfront pool, chill on the beach beds or explore the island's colorful underwater world with a snorkel – all without the crowds of Playa Blanca or Bocagrande.
A day trip to our favourite spot on Isla Grande includes return transportation, a traditional buffet lunch, and day pass access to one of the top island resorts in Cartagena.Rosarios Islands Day Trip
Ever dreamed of sailing off into the Carribean on your own private yacht?
This highly personalized island-hopping adventure allows you to explore the Rosario National Park at your own pace.
With a choice of some of Cartagena's top luxury speedboats, yachts, and sailboats, you'll set sail for the archipelago's most beautiful spots, such as the white-sand-blue-sea paradise of Baru Island and the party-loving bay of Cholon, in style.
With the help of This Is Cartagena's travel experts, you'll get to decide every detail, from what seafood goes on the menu, the cocktails you'd like your private concierge to greet you with on arrival and the soundtrack you'd like the DJ to play as you depart from the dock in Cartagena.
If there's a particular bay or snorkeling spot you'd like to go to, that's up to you too. Only with this eight-hour luxury boat ride through the islands can take in all of Cartagena's most exotic beaches.

If you're not in a hurry and still fancy taking your Cartagena island adventure to the next level, then a cruise on one of the city's most luxurious catamarans might just be for you.
This laid-back Big Cat...amaran adventure allows you to escape the crowds by exploring the Rosario Islands – a popular national park just 35 km southwest of Cartagena – from the comfort of a luxurious, 82 ft sailboat.
On this luxury day trip, you'll get to cruise through the islands: sailing through beautiful cerulean and turquoise water and explore the most vibrant coral reefs in Colombia.
With plenty of opportunities to swim, snorkel, and take in some rays up on the wood-floored deck, the crew will prepare a delicious seafood lunch.
While you don't actually make it to the beach on this trip there's nothing but blue water and palm tree-dotted islets around you so you won't care as you dive into the blissful blue once again.
This might just be the best lunchtime view you've ever had. If you want the same smooth experience in the evening, try the shortened sunset spin around the bay with the same operator.Rosario Islands Catamaran Day Trip Sunset Sailing Trip
If you're traveling as a family to Cartagena and you have people in the group that just can't sit still, then a whole day of beach bumming might not tick all the boxes.
Combining a trip to the Baru Bird Sanctuary – a natural reserve home to over 125 species of birds – with a beach lunch on Playa Blanca is the perfect way to mix adventure, Colombian biodiversity and beach time into a single day.
Accessible by road, it's also a great option for people who want to make it to the beach from Cartagena without getting seasick on a boat.
First, you'll explore Cartagena's incredible bird sanctuary with a one-hour guided walk through the island's protected dry forest, where you'll get to spot parrots, condors, flamingos, and hummingbirds.
After an opportunity to interact with some of our spectacular feathered friends, you'll be whisked off for a fresh fish lunch (think grilled red snapper and coconut rice) on Playa Blanca, the most famous beach in Cartagena.
Known for its golden sands and bright turquoise water, Playa Blanca can get crowded but you'll still enjoy the chance to take a dip in the warm Caribbean waters and spread out on the powdery sand, you'll be just about ready to take your air-conditioned van back to your hotel in Cartagena.Baru Bird Watching and Beach Trip
Sometimes, a beach day in the Caribbean feels all the more perfect when you've had to work for it.
This mountain biking adventure will have you peddling 3km through the dry forests of Tierrabomba, Cartagena's biggest island.
As well as spotting a variety of birds and other wildlife along the nature trails, you'll also learn about Cartagena's colonial history with a stop at San Fernando Castle and Angel San Rafael, two maritime forts the Spanish used to fight off English and French pirates in the 17th and 18th centuries.
Once you arrive at your final destination, Bocachica or Punta Arena, opt for a traditional lunch on the beach or, if luxury beach beds, an oceanfront infinity pool and hammock-side cocktails sound like your kind of thing, upgrade to a gourmet lunch at one of our favorite beach clubs.
You've got beach clubs galore to choose from with Blue Apple Beach Club or Fenix Beach Club our two favorites.Mountain Biking Beach Trip
When you picture yourself at the beach, do you think of a sandy towel and plastic beer cups, or is it plush loungers, waiter service and a glass of Provençal rosé that comes to mind?
If it's the latter, then a day at Blue Apple Beach Club should be high on your Cartagena beach day list. Hidden between the swaying palm trees of southern Tierrabomba, Blue Apple Beach Club is one of Colombia's chicest boutique hotels and beachside hangouts.
A day pass here grants you access to their St.Tropez-inspired infinity pool, private beach area, and a slow-food restaurant serving Caribbean favorites like shrimp ceviche, sea bass carpaccio and coconut rice.
Choose from soaking up the sun by the oceanfront pool to Dj-spun beats, or, if you're the adventurous type, hire a standup paddle board, take a yoga class or kayak around the island.
The best part? Just a 30-minute boat ride from Cartagena, you won't be wasting a single minute of sunshine on this luxury day trip.Blue Apple Beach Club Day Trip
Surrounded by lush palm trees and uninterrupted views of the Caribbean, Fenix Beach Club feels more like an island escape than a city beach club.
But, just a ten-minute boat ride away from Cartagena, this is the closest you'll get to beach paradise without having to travel.
This party-loving beach club boasts a private stretch of white sand and turquoise water with sweeping views over the Castillogrande skyline.
Here, choose from sipping cocktails on the bamboo beach beds, taking a dip in the calm waters or, if you can't sit still, challenge your fellow beach bums to a game of volleyball or table tennis.
A visitor day pass includes a welcome drink, a Caribbean-inspired lunch of fried fish, coconut rice and patacones and use of the club's private beach and oceanfront swimming pool.
For an extra fee, you can also take a kayak, paddling, snorkeling or scuba diving tour. If you're into the party scene, be sure to stick around after sunset for one of Cartagena's best beachfront DJ sets.Fenix Beach Club Day Trip
If all this beach talk has you longing for some extended island time, why not consider an overnight stay at one of the top islands in Cartagena?
From family-friendly resorts to 10-room oceanfront boutiques, the islands that surround Cartagena offer a stunning collection of beachfront accommodation including some lovely private islands for rent.
An overnight stay means you'll not only have more time to sunbathe, swim and snorkel, but – perhaps most importantly – you'll also get to experience Cartagena's beaches at their quietest during the morning and late afternoons – when day-trippers are either yet to arrive or have already made their exit.
Feeling like a little more beach time? Then check out our list of the top private islands for rent in Cartagena or a tailor-made trip that combines time in the city with a couple of days soaking up the sun in the islands.An Islands Experience Private Islands in Cartagena
A very different way to enjoy a day at the beach is to help the people tackling one of the world's biggest problems.
Plastic pollution in Cartagena and Colombia is every bit as much a problem as it is across the rest of the world.
Lack of recycling methods, alongside littering and poor waste management throughout the city, creates serious pollution problems — especially noticeable in the surrounding ocean waters and local beaches.
This Is Cartagena wants to avoid contributing to the contamination of Colombia's best beaches and, as such, encourages all visitors to avoid single-use plastics on their trips to the beach.
To help achieve our goal of zero single use plastics by 2020, we encourage all clients to bring their own water bottles and offer re-fill opportunities with our partners across the city.
We can provide guests that don't have their own water bottle with one on arrival in Cartagena so they can reduce their consumption of bottled water during their trip through Colombia.
All you need to do is request one from our team. Contact a member of This Is Cartagena's team.
If you would like to go a little further then our partners Domino Volunteers and Fundacion Bahia can help arrange it for you to participate in one of the regular ocean cleanups they organise with some of the hard-working foundations.
Don't have time to spare on your vacation but want to do something to help anyway? You can always make a donation to the cause at Global Giving.Volunteer with Domino Contact Us
So many beach options and so little time. If you still can't make your mind up on which beach experience is the best for your group, then allow one of our local beach experts to point you in the right direction.

Fans of The Wizard of Oz can forget about ruby slippers, cute little Toto and happy endings over the rainbow. The Wicked Witch is flying north to put the record straight, as hit stage musical Wicked, which has been spellbinding audiences in London, gets set to work its magic on North East audiences for the first time.
The Sunderland Empire has announced that the record-breaking show, which promises to tell the "whole and untold story" of the Witches of Oz, will stop there on a UK tour next year and tickets will go on sale at the end of the month.
The multi-award-winning musical is out to reveal the other side of the The Wizard of Oz, which fans of the all-time favourite movie can be forgiven for thinking they're fully familiar with after decades of it dominating the festive TV schedules.
Sweet little Dorothy might well have triumphed over the Wicked Witch of the West, but her opponent, it seems, reckons its time to give her point of view.
The show is based on Gregory Maguire's novel, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.
Ingeniously and wittily re-imagining the Land of Oz, it begins with an unlikely friendship between two girls who are sorcery students.
They are Glinda, who's popular and blonde, and Elphaba, who's misunderstood and, well, green.
Following an encounter with The Wizard, however, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda is destined to become the Good Witch and Elphaba the Wicked Witch of the West.
The creation of a parallel universe to that of The Wizard of Oz, which was based on L Frank Baum's 1900 book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, was an inspired idea by Maguire.
The musical version has enjoyed massive success, having been seen by 39 million people around the world.
Tickets for its London run are now selling into its ninth year and already it's been seen by more than 39 million people around the world.
Nine productions are running concurrently.
With its seven-plus age recommendation, the show is set to be a real crowd-puller at Sunderland Empire, where tickets go on sale on March 31 for next year's run from March 31 to April 25.
Ben Phillips, general manager of Sunderland Empire, said: "We are delighted to announce that the global phenomenon Wicked, one of the biggest musicals in West End and Broadway history, will be flying in for a limited four-week run.
"It tells the untold story of the Witches of Oz for the first and only time in the North East!"
The musical's executive producer Michael McCabe added: "We are thrilled to be bringing Wicked to the magnificent Sunderland Empire in 2015.
"We are really pleased that audiences in the North East will have the opportunity to experience this spectacular production."
Tickets will be available from 10am on March 31 from the venue, by calling 0844 871 3022 or visiting www.atgtickets.com/sunderland .

Philip Simmons Elementary continues to gain momentum and is going full throttle with STEAM. We're in Berkeley county for our Cool School of the week.
Philip Simmons Elementary opened as a new school this school year in a new state of the art facility off of Clements Ferry Road. The school is named after iconic ironwork artisan Philip Simmons. The school has more than three-hundred students in child development through fourth grade.
PSES offers a STEAM, Science Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math curriculum. Philip Simmons Elementary is a one-to-one Chromebook school. The school also has a 3-D printer. Kindergarten students are also learning coding early. The STEAM school engages students in solving real-world problems. "At Philip Simmons Elementary, students needs are number on," says principal Dr. Karen Whitley. "It's a great place to learn. The climate here is wonderful. Our children have banded together so well. This whole community has come together, and that's good for everybody," says Dr. Whitley. Fourth-grade student Darriel Porcher says, "We have a good principal and vice principal." Teacher of the year Doretha Garland says, "Our school is named after Philip Simmons, and for the part of the process of getting the children use to being in the school, when they first got here there were many opportunities for the children to learn who Philip Simmons was and it has provided us with such a good meaningful way to connect history." Second-grade student Luke Daniel says, "We have very wonderful teachers, and all of the students are very nice, and there are no bullies or anything. It's a very nice and peaceful school."
The school received a 12-thousand-dollars grant from BP for their Maker Space, which they are currently putting in place. Genius hour, Gifted and Talented program, Girls on the Run, and golf are just a few of a long list of activities available for students. The PSES News Team is top notch.
Coming up tonight on News 2 at 5, we'll take a closer look at Philip Simmons STEAM initiatives and introduce you to Stitch.
We want to hear about the good things that are going on at your school. Just send an email to Octavia at omitchell@ wcbd.com.

Young Academic can reveal that the Exam Results Helpline is being backed this year by leading Hollyoaks actors Jazmine Franks (Esther Bloom) and Alfie Browne-Sykes (Jason Roscoe).
The helpline, funded by the Department for Education, handles thousands of calls every year from students all around the country and is seen as a lifeline to those who don't know where to turn once they have got their exam results.
Alfie Browne-Sykes who plays Jason Roscoe in Hollyoaks said: "Playing Jason, who has just taken his A-Levels on Hollyoaks, reminds me how stressful it can be during the exam period! It's so important that students don't feel alone once they get their results and the helpline provides support to those who need it. It's not all about University either, if like me callers don't want to go into Higher Education, the advisers can provide information on other options including careers, gap years and vocational learning."
Highly Skilled Staff…
The Exam Results Helpline number 0808 100 8000 is a free telephone helpline staffed by independent and highly experienced careers advisers. For the first time this year Careers Advisers will also be proving help and guidance on Facebook and Twitter.
Students across the UK who have received their exam results (A levels, GCSEs and equivalent qualifications) can call in to talk through their options and to get advice about their future learning and career options.
Jazmine Franks who plays Esther Bloom in Hollyoaks said: "I am really pleased to be able to represent the Exam Results Helpline. I remember what it's like to get A level results and the various emotions and pressures that come with results day."
"It would have really benefitted me to know there was a helpline available in case I didn't get the results I needed for university and so raising awareness of the helpline among students is something I'm very pleased to be a part of." To see Jazmine talking about the Exam Results Helpline click, see the great video below:
[youtube id="cv1-v7sStuk" width="620″ height="360″]
Available Throughout Exam Period….
The Helpline is open throughout the exam results period, this year running between Thursday 14 and Saturday 23 August for students receiving exam results in England, Wales and Northern Ireland*.
The busiest time is always A-level results day, which is Thursday 14 August this year. Last year, the helpline received over 6,000 calls.
If a student is reconsidering their options based on results they have or have not achieved, they should contact the Exam Results Helpline on 0808 100 8000 from 14 August.
If a student has a specific query about their university application, they should contact the UCAS Contact Centre on 0871 468 0 468.
For further information, visit www.ucas.com/examresultshelpline
What is the Exam Results Helpline (ERH)?
The Helpline opens on Tuesday 5 August for students receiving exam results in Scotland and Thursday 14th August for students receiving exam results in the rest of the UK.
Telephone: 0808 100 8000
Calls are free from land-lines and select mobile networks
The Exam Results Helpline offers free, expert and independent information and advice to students who receive higher or lower exam results than expected and need to explore alternative options for their futures.
Supporting existing education and careers advice channels, the helpline opens once a year across the A-level, GCSE, Scottish Standard, Higher, Advanced Higher and Intermediate exam results period – offering a lifeline to students who don't get the grades they expect and want to continue into further/higher education or pursue different routes such as re-training, careers, finding employment or taking gap years.
Each helpline adviser is fully trained with at least five years' experience working in a careers based role and a relevant qualification.
The only careers helpline with access to specific Confirmation and Clearing data via UCAS, information and advice offered is timely and accurate, including:
• Higher and further education choices

Tony HalsallFollowing on from last month's warnings by Health watchdog agencies over failings at the 'red-rated' University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Trust (UHMBT) (see previous article), the Trust's Chief Executive Tony Halsall has now resigned.
Mr Halsall's departure follows Trust Chair Professor Eddie Kane's resignation in December 2011, five months before his contract was due to expire. In February the independent regulator Monitor intervened in the running of the hospital trust, bringing in an interim Chair, Sir David Henshaw, from Alder Hey hospital in Liverpool. The Trust's deputy chief executive and director of finance, Tim Bennett, will act as CE until Sir David appoints an Interim Chief Executive.
Having joined the NHS as a nurse in 1980, Mr Halsall had held various senior management posts before being appointed Chief Executive at University Hospitals of Morecamb Bay NHS Trust in 2007. It became a Foundation Trust in 2010. He also led Morecambe Bay to Foundation Trust status in 2010. However a series of deaths in 2008 at the mother & baby unit at Furness General Hospital, in Barrow, Cumbria, has led to an ongoing police investigation. It also became apparent that the methods used to compile statistics on patient outcomes at Furness General had led to a number of fatalities involving clinical error at the unit being left out of the figures.
A failed inspection in December 2011 let to health regulators the Care Quality Commission (CQC) issuing a warning over unacceptable standards at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary's A & E Department. (See previous article).
As a result, changes are now being made at the RLI, with the day surgery ward being changed to a medical ward to immediately provide an additional 34 medical beds. Also, the Trust has announced that a new mobile operating unit is being brought in:
"To support the extra medical beds additional senior medical staff, and appropriately trained and skilled nurses, will be in place to ensure safe medical cover and decision-making to support the Medical Assessment Unit, the short stay wards, Emergency Department and the inpatient wards.
"The introduction of the mobile unit will give us valuable extra capacity to ensure there are enough beds available for emergency patients. In the short term I regret that we will also need to postpone some non-urgent operations."We have recognised that there is a need to make improvements to emergency care at the RLI to improve patient experience and reduce waiting times.
"Work is starting on a £1.5 million investment in these services and we also brought an external expert in towards the end of last year to work with staff on plans that will provide a longer term solution to managing emergency care. We are also working closely with our commissioners to ensure our longer term plans are in the best interests of our patients."
Work is also underway to move acute stroke patients from Medical Unit 2 to a designated stroke unit.
Sir David HenshawIn an update on progress released on 1 March Sir David explained that the trust had now set up a Programme Management Office (PMO) which 'quality assures the project plans, the milestones to delivery and outcomes of all projects. It reports to a Programme Board and through that to the Board of Directors.' Read his full statement here.
One of the PMO's first projects is a Mortality Review, involving an overhaul of the data collection system in partnership with the NW Quality Alliance and CHKS.
On 6 March, in a Trust statement on the Care Quality Commission warning notices, Sir David went on to say;
"A considerable amount of work is already underway and we are developing a comprehensive recovery plan for the Trust and when this is complete I look forward to discussing it with local people, our staff and other stakeholders.
"In their on-going investigation the CQC has made us aware of a number of additional problems including staff shortages and other areas of concern about care related to assessment, observation, record keeping and privacy and dignity.
"I wish to thank all of our staff for their continued hard work and dedication in what continues to be extremely difficult times. Day in, day out our staff treat the majority of patients with a high level of care and professionalism and we appreciate the support and goodwill of our staff, which has been considerable – we do not take it for granted. However, the level of care, safety and experience that investigators recently identified in some cases is completely unacceptable. '
A schedule for local consultation may have to wait until the new Interim CE is announced.
In the meantime, we hear that the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) is currently welcoming applications from patients, carers and lay people to sit on a number of NICE groups and committees, as part of their Patient and Public Involvement Programme. They have vacancies on the following committees (mainly meeting in Manchester):
Technology Appraisal Committee D closing date Monday 26 March 2012
Dyspepsia/Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) Guideline Development Group closing date 22 March 2012
Epilepsy Quality Standard Topic Expert Group closing date 28 March 2012
Hypertension Quality Standard Topic Expert Group closing date 27 March 2012
For more patient, carer and lay opportunities please see the NICE webpages http://www.nice.org.uk/getinvolved/joinnwc/join_a_nice_committee_or_working_group.jsp

Office supplies are primary and expendable items essential to every office. South Africa has initiated a great strategy named Green Office Week (GOW) that is instigating all kinds of firms to become eco-friendly workplaces. The aim is to make stationery supplies eco-friendly and sustainable. This will promote environmental education. Going green requires starting from the primal point of the receptionist's desk and working all the way up to the CEO's office. The initiative is basically focused on cost efficiency and other issues like energy efficiency, social economy, sustainable mobility, lesser climate damage, etc.
Ways to implement sustainable practices in your own office can be summed up in the following ways: (Information source: Oxbow SA)
1. The office supplies purchased in South Africa should be made from recycled materials, which are readily available nowadays. Buying them in bulk quantities will save the per-unit costs. This will also reduce wastes observed during packaging. Items categorised under "high-efficiency" or "high-capacity" reduce the per-unit cost for bulk-sized items.
2. The separable binding equipment can be reused multiple times which reduces the buying cost, annually cutting down a huge auxiliary expense.
3. Energy saving items complying with ENERGY STAR branding, tend to cut down on electricity bills. This saves the annual expense of the firms.
4. Printing supplies like toner bottles, cartridges are recyclable. These tend to reduce the solid waste produced from corporate offices each year.
5. Modern technologies have brought about new systems which are multifunctional. They can replace stand-alone units used separately for different purposes like print, copy, scan, fax, etc. MFPs produce about 90% less waste than laser printers while the quality of printing on recycled papers complements inkjet or laser printing.
6. Toner cartridges have become obsolete in many places as modern energy saving offices are using solid ink sticks which are easy to ship due to its smaller size and are cheaper too.
7. "Reduce, reuse and recycle" are the primary criteria for making an eco-friendly environment. Usage of techs to distribute documents will reduce the use of paper considerably. Recycled papers and their reuse will ultimately save trees, water and energy used to make papers.
8. Categorising the types of documents and saving on their print qualities can make a great deal of difference. Toner-saving modes can be used to print less important documents while important documents get the higher quality outputs.
9. Advancement of technology has made it possible for multifunctional printers (MFP) to print in duplex forms, i.e., printing on both sides. This reduces the use of papers and wastage of toner inks during paper changes inside the system.
At first, everyone in the office should be incorporated in this motion. From janitor to CEO, going green means, everyone comes under the same roof and the best results can only be achieved together. Going green doesn't mean it has to be expensive at any stage; rather it becomes pocket-friendly even in the long run with a better, sustainable, low energy consuming, eco-friendly office.

Lena Dunham Takes Over U.S. Presidential Hopeful Hillary Clinton's Instagram
Entertainment| |
Actress Lena Dunham is "thrilled" to be campaigning for Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton by taking over the politician's Instagram account.
The 2016 presidential race is in full swing and the 29-year-old Girls creator and star knows exactly who she's voting for.
Dunham is such a Clinton supporter, she decided to take over the former Secretary of State's Instagram page on Friday.
In the actress' initial post on Clinton's account, a photo of herself saluting the camera, Dunham wrote: "Hey y'all! I made it to New Hampshire and I'm thrilled to be taking over the HRC (Hillary Rodham Clinton) Instagram! Warning: I'm pretty focused on my outfits. #Imwithher -Lena." Dunham's outfit was patriotic to say the least, as she wore a red, white and blue sweater dress with stripes all over the garment. The attire seemed to rev the star up as she delivered speeches with other supporters on the campaign trail.
Love meeting and talking with the brilliant women of Portsmouth, NH! #ImWithHer -Lena A photo posted by Hillary Clinton (@hillaryclinton) on
"Campaigning with dream babe @abbywambach!" she gushed in text attached to another photograph, which featured Dunham smiling while listening to the retired soccer player and two-time Olympic gold medalist speak.
The television star seemed enthused while speaking to citizens, publishing another photo of herself conversing with voters.
"Love meeting and talking with the brilliant women of Portsmouth, NH! #ImWithHer -Lena," she wrote in the image caption.
In addition to getting involved in the 2016 presidential race, Dunham is in for a busy year, as HBO network bosses recently confirmed her hit show Girls will end after its sixth season, meaning its final run will air in 2017.

The Invitation That Changed One Rider's Life
June 19, 2017
ew York City rider CRYSTAL 'VIOLET' MARRERO hesitantly agreed to join her friends at a SoulCycle class last fall. Within months, she counted her 100th ride and found a family.
One invite turned my whole life around.
On December 20th, I found myself walking into SoulCycle for the first time. My friends had invited me to TRAMMELL's class a few days prior and I trepidatiously agreed. I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared — I was petrified!
Once I walked through E83's Studio B, however, something changed. Trammell found out I was a first-time rider and quickly introduced himself to me. The energy in the room was just contagious. Everyone was on the same page: There's no judgment and we're all here to escape the madness that's on the other side of that door, even for just 45 minutes. My friends and I let go and rode to the beat of the music booming from those speakers. Somehow with all the choreography (which, by the way, was extremely difficult my first time), I still found a way to enjoy this time on the bike and push myself to do something out of my comfort zone.
Then the last song came on. I think that was my turning point! Trammell had us close our eyes, think about a time and a place where we thought we weren't good enough, where we thought we couldn't overcome something big, and then use that to turn up the resistance and push through.
Two years prior, I had lost my uncle to the big C. He took such good care of himself, was a black belt, and the father of seven boys — he was a superhero! To have someone I admired so much slip away from me in nine months was devastating. It was the hardest time I had to go through and my whole world felt like it was crashing down.
I had gained so much weight, literally eating my feelings and throwing my life away, but then SoulCycle happened. It saved my life.
Trammell has become my mentor, trainer, instructor, best friend, and brother. He's helped change my mindset and turn my life around in just five months! He brought me into this SoulCycle community, which in turn has become my family. I was accepted by people who knew I wanted to get my life back on track. No judgment — they accepted me for me, flaws and all!
Since that day in December, I celebrated my 100th ride, completed a Turn It Up 30 challenge, and went down three to four sizes. I wake up happier, with more energy, feeling like I have a purpose!
Some people don't understand how impactful a 45-minute class can be. I recommend it to all my clients, my friends... even my bank teller! You walk into class seeing people you ride with day in and day out. You become one once you lock into that bike. Whatever you're going through, whatever you're pushing for, those 45 minutes change everything. You leave that room feeling like you can do anything, you can be anything, you can overcome ANYTHING. All you have to do is trust in yourself and in those around you.

Pre-requisite modules
Co-requisite modules
- None
Prohibited combinations
|Teaching cycle
|Autumn Term 2018-19 to Summer Term 2018-19
Frontiers of Physics Research
Frontiers of physics research will enable you to explore through a series of lectures areas of current research in the Department. Each lecture will introduce a specific topic which will serve as the stimulus for further study. Following the lectures, which will also include sessions on scientific writing and how to read journal articles, you will research one topic as a concise review article and two in the form of abstracts. In addition, you will attend the Departmental Postgraduate Poster evening and write up one of the displayed posters.
Advanced Astrophysics Laboratory
There are two main aims for the third year astrophysics laboratory
a. To provide practical examples of some of the more advanced physics and astrophysics you will be covering in the third and fourth year lecture courses and
b. To provide a step between the rather directed, short term experiments of the first and second year laboratories and the complexities of your astrophysics project work next year.
As a result the experiments are both longer and more open-ended, and will be directed by your growing expertise and effort. The scripts of the experiments will require you to find and read appropriate additional material and reference these sources in your lab notebook and your Laboratory Dissertation. You will also learn to keep a contemporary and formatted laboratory notebook which will be a true record of your laboratory work and progress. You will also learn how to manage multi-staged, complex, and open-ended experimental work.
At the end of this module successful students will be able to:
become proficient with an area of departmental research and current astrophysical research to a level consistent with 3rd year MPhys knowledge by means of literature, database and web searches
become confident in reading scientific journal articles and extracting useful information
write succinct and accurate scientific English for both one-page and more extended summaries and Laboratory Dissertation of experimental work
able to learn from, analyse and constructively criticise a PhD-level poster presentation.
To properly measure and collect data using techniques important to astronomy and astrophysics within the laboratory
To describe the physics behind experimental observables found in the laboratory work.
Keep a good and professional experimental record of work in the laboratory notebook
• Frontiers of Physics Research:-
The topics are likely to vary from year to year; recent lectures have included:
Advanced Astrophysics Laboratory:-
The students have the choice of performing four experiments from an extensive list. The experiments can to vary from year to year; and the recent Astrophysics-specific experiments have recently included:

How would you describe your "research problem" to the Research Scholars Group?
While teaching my courses, I routinely find that several students are having difficulty with long-term retention of the course material. Since my courses interweave course content throughout the semester, I need to find a better approach to improve long-term retention of the material. This problem does not seem to only affect my classes, but those of my colleagues as well. I feel it is imperative that I find the best way to teach the course so that ALL of the students can fully understand the course and then make connections by being able to retain material throughout the semester. What I want to explore is: Is there a teaching strategy that is more effective than what I normally use? In this context, I would like to see if flipping some of the class meetings will lead to improved long-term retention of the material.
What theme(s) based on your readings, resonate with your "problem" and/or proposed approach to address your problem.
To be honest, I found all of the required readings quite valuable in helping me think more clearly about the research problem I want to study during this residency. In particular, I liked how the Hutchings article discussed about the necessity at times to "change the script as you go." The article continues in which "Mona Phillips states, this need to strike a balance between rigor and flexibility and to let the investigation unfold and take shape as the course itself, as well as the student's experience, unfolds and takes shape is part of the power of the scholarship of teaching and learning." This information is very valuable as I embark on this research study. Though when I begin the study, I plan to have defined plans for the study, the path will probably need to change somewhat for the sake of student learning. I also found the entire article about classroom action research very important in helping me better formulate the research problem. It was a great way for me to logically see the organized steps involved in classroom action research. The one step I was not familiar with was the triangulation of data. That part of the paper really helped me start to think about possible ways to collect useful data.
Based on Hutchings article, what taxonomy would you use to describe your research question and why?
I believe that possibly 3 of the taxonomy questions are relevant for my research question. First, "what works" is important because I want to see which instructional activity (flipped class sessions compared to non-flipped sessions) will lead to better long-term retention of the course material. Second, "what is" will be extremely important for my research question. Through this study, I want to learn about the students' experiences using either of the learning environments. For example, were many uncomfortable teaching themselves the basic material prior to class? Did that uncomfortable feeling turn them off from being willing to learn the material and fully participate during the in-class activity? The last taxonomy question that is incorporated into my research question is "visions of the possible," since, in order to retain course material, students will not be able to compartmentalize course content.
Do you have any questions/concerns/comments that have evolved from your reading?
The more I "dive" into the reading about scholarship of teaching and learning, the more fearful I become regarding how little I know about this subject. I have been regularly integrating active teaching into my classes from several teaching workshops I have participated in, but have never had a chance to study a research problem. Quite often during each semester, I come up with many problems that can be investigated, but never have a chance to study them because I did not utilize active classroom research. The many tasks laid out so nicely in the CAR paper seems quite daunting. I fear that my question is still too broad and hope that I will get great constructive feedback during the residency to narrow the question so that I can come up with several different ways to collect data. I hope that the institute will give us many examples of how to collect data for the study. I also hope to learn how to design a thorough assessment survey for my study.

After spending the better part of two decades working with dogs, Nikki Johnson is opening up her own small dog daycare in Kirkland, named after her own pet.
Pickles Playland had a soft opening in July and will be fully opening on Oct. 20. The small dogs daycare was already full of excited animals on a recent weekday morning, and Johnson said when she opened it was so popular she had a waiting list of around 15 people. She's had a pet sitting and walking business for around seven years and said many of her clients are crossing over to book their dogs at her daycare.
"I've been working with dogs for 16 years, so it just seemed like a natural progression," she said.
The daycare is open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays and from noon to 4 p.m. on the weekend. Members can swing their dogs by and drop them off while they work, shop or if they just want their four-legged friend to have a good time, Johnson said. Staff members reinforce basic obedience training and three are generally working at any given time. Johnson said she tries to maintain a comfortable place for the dogs, complete with natural plant-based cleaners, essential oils and plants in the daycare that deter fleas.
"One of the No. 1 focuses is trying to be a homelike environment," Johnson said.
The dogs are separated into two groups: those with lots of energy and those that are more reserved to better take care of them during the day. Couches are provided as are resting zones where playing isn't allowed, and the facility has a fenced outdoor deck area for fresh air. The daycare accepts dogs up to 20 inches in height and does not have weight requirements.
In addition to being a daycare, members can swing by for a beer or some wine during the weekends. Both the outdoor patio and the inside register have alcohol available for purchase. Johnson said this allows dog owners to hang out with their pets as well as see how they run the daycare center.
"I understand that they would want to see a little bit of what we do during the day," she said.
Pickles Playland will host events that range from educational to pure recreation and members will get free access to most events. Yoga classes will also be held every other Saturday.
The pet industry across the country has been growing rapidly over the past decade. According to the American Pet Products Association, the pet industry generated $43 billion in 2008, a figure that increased to nearly $70 billion in 2017. This includes food, supplies, vet care, purchases and pet services like daycares and grooming. In particular, grooming and boarding generated more than $6 billion in sales in 2017.
Johnson said she eventually wants to open up four more locations on the Eastside.
"Our main goal for the play land is not just to have somewhere for dogs to go when their people are at work, but have somewhere that helps," she said. "Any way that we can help people is something that we think is really helpful to the community."
Pickles Playland is located at 12669 NE 85th St., Kirkland. Visit pickles

Apple Hits New Highs as Tim Cook Celebrates One Year as CEO
On August 24 one year ago Steve Jobs stepped down from the Apple's CEO post which he held for more a decade and Tim Cook took over the company's management. After the announcement, Apple's stock dropped more than 5% in after hours to $351.
But now Apple is the most valuable publicly-traded company in the world. Its current share price is $668, gaining more than 75% year-over-year. With Cook in charge, Apple released the iPhone 4S, the new iPad, the Retina MacBook Pro, Mountain Lion and previewed the next version of iOS.
A stolen Steve Jobs' iPad ended up in the hands of the local clown
Recently it was revealed that last month, Steve Jobs's house was robbed. The thief broke into the house, which was in disrepair and stole property valued $ 60.000, including several iMacs and iPads, Tiffany jewelry and wallet of Steve Jobs in dollar in it. The San Jose Mercury News reports that one of the stolen iPad fell into the hands of "Kenny the Clown", a local clown that performs shows for children and tourists in the Bay Area. Kenny got the iPad from a friend Kariem McFarlin, the thief who confessed to his crimes.
More than $60,000 in "computers and personal items" stolen from Steve Jobs' home
The San Jose Mercury News reports that the Palo Alto home of late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs was among the homes which were burglarized last month. Jobs' home on Waverley Street in Palo Alto was burglarized on July 17. Among the items taken were more than $60,000 worth of "computers and personal items." The Jobs home has been undergoing renovation and it is unclear whether the family is currently living in the house while the work is being performed.
Phil Schiller on History of the iPhone
Phil Schiller took the stand today, describing Apple's development of the iPhone and iPad at a time when few believed the company could shake up the mobile industry, offering a bit of insight into the history of the iPhone. AllThingsD posted a summary of Schiller's comments.
People suggested all kinds of things Apple could do, Schiller recalled: "Make a camera, make a car, crazy stuff."
Eddy Cue Tried To Persuade Steve Jobs That 7-Inch iPad Should Be Released
On an earnings call conference in October 2010, Steve Jobs addressed the Android-based competitors of iPad that were appearing on the market, noting that screens of the majority of these tablets were 45% as large as the 9.7-inch iPad display and that iPad has the minimum necessary display for acceptable user experience.
Apple Considered Making A Major Investment Into Twitter

Apple to kill Ping with next major iTunes release
According to sources close to the matter Apple will reportedly kill off the Ping iTunes service when the next iteration of iTunes rolls out alongside iOS 6 this fall, reports All Things D. The social music network has suffered waning participation since its introduction in 2010.
Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed these rumors partly when he said at the D10 conference in May that the company might kill off Ping but vowed to add more social integration into its products. Ping is still active, but sources say that the social network will be redacted this fall and replaced by deeper Twitter and Facebook integration.
WWDC Banners Ever For The Last 10 Years [Photos]
Every year thousands of Apple developers flock to San Francisco to attend Apple's World Wide Developers Conference to be educated in all things Apple. Over the past decade the conference has undergone some big changes as Apple has introduced products like the iPhone, Mac Pro, Intel Processors, Mac OS X operating systems, and much more. An event that used to be lightly attended has now become the most popular developers conference in the world and sold out within 2 hours this years.
Here's a look at the banner images of WWDC over the past 10 years.
Apple announced OS X 10. 2 (Jaguar), QuickTime 6, and held a mock funeral for OS 9 to tell developers there would be no more Mac OS 9 development.
Tim Cook says Apple is 'very serious' about doubling down on secrecy
Apple's secrecy surrounding its product line is legendary. Apple cofounder Steve Jobs even identified secrecy as one of the specific tenets at Apple that has been responsible for its success. And now Apple plans to become even more protective going forward, the company's chief executive said in an interview to the All Things D.
Questioned by journalists Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg, Cook revealed that Apple plans to "double down" on product security and secrecy. "We're going to double down on secrecy," Cook said Tuesday. "I'm very serious about this. Double down."
Apple Researching Stylus Concepts with Optical Tracking and Haptic Feedback
Back in 2007, then the first-generation iPhone was launched, Steve Jobs offered an idea of a stylus for the iPhone. And it seems that Apple is still researching his ideas for stylus-based input. Unwired View has recently posted Apple patent applications filed in late 2010, highlighting optical and haptic stylus concepts. However, there is no evidence that Apple is seriously looking at incorporating a stylus into its products, but it remains clear that the company is thinking about how such pen-based input could be used in novel ways.
Apple's optical stylus is based on a tiny camera on the tip of the pen, allowing it to track patterns on a device's screen that is invisible to the user's eye.

The 'Bleeding Love' singer Leona Lewis - who shot to fame after winning the music mogul Simon Cowell's UK TV talent show 'The X Factor' in 2006 - admitted she has remained close to her mentor, but is still nervous about how he will react to her music.
Speaking about recording some new material, she said: "He didn't come to the studio but I'd play him songs down the phone. It's scary and you think, 'Please like it!'
"We've formed more of a bond and we can be honest with each other."
As well as Simon, Leona says she has lots of celebrity friends, in particular Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney and his family.
She said: "I have a relationship with the McCartneys. I respect their values and their opinions about vegetarianism because I'm a vegetarian. They're really cool people."
However, despite her successes, the singer admits she still gets overwhelmed when she meets other celebrities.
She added: "I was star-struck when I met Samuel L Jackson and Daniel Day-Lewis at the Golden Globes. I was excited when I met Nelson Mandela, too. I performed at his birthday in 2008. I was really honoured."

From an early age, I learned the power of staying quiet and not rocking the boat. I HATED when people showed an ounce of anger or disappointment toward me because I always felt like it was personal. As if I actively did something wrong to garner such a response. This, in turn, made my words and feelings secondary to keeping everyone else happy. It was a toxic cycle that shaped my life to the point where I woke up one morning and had no who I was anymore.
My soul was torn into a patchwork of everyone' else likes, dislikes, dreams and hopes for the future. If you asked me what I desired, I would have laughed uncomfortably and said, "A slice of chocolate cake." Humor, a deflection method rusted with age at this point.
Truth be told, it was easier than admitting I had no freaking clue. I hadn't thought about my desires, or what I wanted in so long. My body was on auto-pilot. Wake up, brush my teeth, work, make dinner before my then boyfriend got home, listen to NPR, watch a T.V show and sleep. A comfortable existence with a deep-seated unhappiness. I did this for six years because the alternative of going out into the big scary world and living a life I didn't have a clear picture of made me want to puke.
Who was I to ask for more? Why wasn't this ENOUGH? Why couldn't I just be happy? Whenever I asked those questions, a whisper from the innermost part of myself would answer – because you are you. Nobody else.
Of course, I ignored that whisper until it became a scream. No longer could I sit there, day in and day out, living a life made for somebody else. I had to escape, which might sound dramatic but that's what it felt like. Blowing everything up to start anew was terrifying yet as soon as I did it, I sense of peace washed over me.
I remember standing in my kitchen, which was also my bedroom and looking around with a small smile playing on my lips. This was it. This was what I was searching for. A place to call mine. It wasn't much but to me, it was a castle.
The months following were entwined with a sense of deep grieving along with the euphoria of falling in love with who I was again. I did whatever I wanted when whenever I wanted. The freedom was intoxicating. There wasn't a particular moment where I realized I didn't give a shit anymore about outside perception. It happened gradually and it's still happening.
You cannot turn off the people pleaser switch permanently. Sometimes it will still flicker. The difference is whether you let it go to full capacity. I do my best to not let it get to that point.
I can now say confidently I desire a life rich in love, good food and plenty of laughs. I want to explore the different sunsets around the world and not settle for anything less than what I deserve. I love tea, hate coffee, and there is nothing better than a hot shower after a blistering walk in the snow.
Next week on the blog, I'll go into more depth about how to break the people pleasing cycle and start living a life on your own terms. Until then, remember – You are you. Nobody else.
