You will feel at home as soon as you walk into this stunning flat. A thoughtful combination of wooden floors, numerous well chosen posters and pictures on the walls, the full length glass windows as well as warm colours make it a homely, pleasant living space. The flower-clad balcony is not only perfect for a summer barbecue – the canal and city skyline views make it a real asset all year round. The large dining table is ideal for the occasional get-together between flatmates.
The flat is located in a modern building, directly on the canal, and in a sought after, trendy and hip location, in the heart of East London's cultural and tech scenes. Public transport connections are outstanding, with the Haggerston Overground station as well as local buses just a minute walk away. The City is within walking distance.
Nicki, the landlady, is a freelance professional who enjoys travelling and exploring the world. She has a spacious and cosy double bedroom to rent out whilst she is away. The room has its own en-suite bathroom and the same open view as from the living room's balcony.
You will be sharing the flat with two friendly, considerate professionals in their thirties. Diego, originally from Spain, enjoys fitness and kickboxing, and Rick is a passionate surfer who will be moving to Bali in 2017. Nicki's room is initially available for a short let (3-4 months, £1,100 pcm plus bills) starting on 20 October, with the possibility to extend the stay or to move to another room within the same flat.
Nicki, Diego and Rick are looking for a friendly, enthusiastic and respectful flatmate to join their warm and welcoming flatshare.

Marianne Weber (* 2. August 1870 als Marianne Schnitger in Oerlinghausen (Fürstentum Lippe); † 12. März 1954 in Heidelberg) war eine deutsche Frauenrechtlerin und Rechtshistorikerin. Sie hielt die erste Rede als Frau im demokratisch neu gewählten Parlament vor der badischen verfassunggebenden Nationalversammlung in Karlsruhe am 15. Januar 1919. 1926 veröffentlichte sie eine einflussreiche Biografie ihres Ehemanns Max Weber.

Leben und Werk
Marianne Schnitger war die einzige Tochter des Landarztes Eduard Schnitger und dessen Frau Anna, geborene Weber, Tochter des Leinenfabrikanten Carl David Weber. Ihre Mutter Anna starb bei der Geburt ihrer zweiten Tochter, kurz danach starb auch das Kind. Nach dem Tod der Mutter 1873 zog sie mit dem Vater in seinen Heimatort Lemgo und wohnte dort später bei Großmutter und Tante.

Sie besuchte von 1877 bis 1886 die Städtische Töchterschule in Lemgo (das heutige Marianne-Weber-Gymnasium) und bis 1889 die Höhere Töchterschule in Hannover. Nach dem Tod der Großmutter 1889 wohnte sie als Haustochter bei Verwandten in Oerlinghausen. 1891 und 1892 verbrachte sie einige Zeit in Berlin und begann 1892 eine Ausbildung zur Zeichnerin. In Berlin hatte sie engen Kontakt zu Verwandten ihrer verstorbenen Mutter, Max und Helene Weber, den Eltern ihres späteren Mannes. Am 20. September 1893 heiratete sie Max Weber jun. im Alter von 23 Jahren in Oerlinghausen. Anschließend zog sie mit ihm in eine eigene Wohnung nach Berlin. Nach ihrem Umzug nach Freiburg im Breisgau 1894 begann sie, sich in der Frauenbewegung zu engagieren. Ab 1896 studierte sie Philosophie und Nationalökonomie an der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg. Allerdings waren Frauen damals nicht zum regulären Studium zugelassen, so studierte sie mit einer besonderen Genehmigung als Gasthörerin und konnte somit Vorlesungen und Seminare besuchen.

1897 erhielt Max Weber einen Ruf an die Universität Heidelberg, was einen Umzug bewirkte. Ihr Engagement in der Frauenbewegung führte sie auch in Heidelberg weiter. Wie ihr Mann begann auch Marianne Weber mit dem Schreiben wissenschaftlicher Texte. Nach ihrer ersten Buchveröffentlichung 1900, Fichtes Sozialismus und sein Verhältnis zur Marxschen Doktrin, erschien 1907 ihr Hauptwerk Ehefrau und Mutter in der Rechtsentwicklung. Max Weber allerdings erkrankte ab 1898 für fast sechs Jahre an schweren Depressionen und musste schließlich seine Hochschultätigkeit beenden. In dieser Zeit reisten Marianne und Max Weber 1900 bis 1903 zahlreich innerhalb Europas und 1904, als Max Weber seine Krankheit überwunden hatte, in die USA. Zu dieser Zeit war die Frauen-Emanzipation in Amerika schon weiter vorangeschritten, was bei Marianne einen bleibenden Eindruck hinterließ.

Marianne Weber waren die gleiche Rechte von Männern und Frauen ein großes Anliegen. 1901 trat sie dem Vorstand des Bundes Deutscher Frauenvereine (BDF), der Dachorganisation der bürgerlichen Frauenbewegung, bei und gründete ebenfalls eine Rechtsschutzstelle für Frauen, vor allem für Dienstmädchen und Kellnerinnen.

Als im Juli 1907 ihr Großvater mütterlicherseits starb, erbte sie ein beachtliches Vermögen. Dies ermöglichte den Eheleuten ein finanziell sorgenfreies Leben. Im selben Jahr hielt sie einen Vortrag in Straßburg beim Evangelisch-sozialen Kongress über "Sexualethik und Prinzipienfragen". 1907 veröffentlichte Weber zudem eine umfassende Untersuchung über das Recht der Frau. Ihr Werk Ehefrau und Mutter in der Rechtsentwicklung verfolgte den Zweck, Ehe und Familie nahezu aller bedeutenden Völker und Zeiten zu analysieren.

1914, zu Beginn des Ersten Weltkriegs, engagierte sie sich im Heidelberger "Nationalen Frauendienst".

Im Jahre 1918 wurde Marianne Weber Mitbegründerin der Deutschen Demokratischen Partei, nahm aktiv am Wahlkampf teil und wurde 1919 Abgeordnete im Landtag der Republik Baden. In der ersten Sitzung des Landtages hielt sie eine Ansprache. Das war das erste Mal, dass eine Frau im badischen Landtag sprach. Das Mandat gab sie nach der Übersiedlung des Ehepaars Weber nach München anlässlich Max Webers Berufung an die dortige Universität auf. 1919 wurde sie in die Badische verfassunggebende Nationalversammlung gewählt und wird erste Schriftführerin in einem deutschen Parlament. Von 1919 bis 1923 war sie Vorsitzende des Bundes deutscher Frauenvereine, anstelle der dafür ursprünglich vorgesehenen Alice Salomon, die aus Angst vor antisemitischer Propaganda übergangen wurde. So war Weber auch befreundet mit Gertrud Bäumer, einer führenden Repräsentantin der bürgerlichen Frauenbewegung, und teilte mit ihr das Ideal der asketischen Liebe.

Kurz nach dem Umzug des Ehepaars nach München 1919 verstarb ihr Mann dort 1920. Marianne Weber gab zunächst alle öffentlichen Ämter auf und kümmerte sich um die Veröffentlichung seiner Werke. So gab sie 1921/1922 dessen Hauptwerk Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft heraus, das bis zu ihrem Tod zwei z. T. editorisch überarbeitete Neuauflagen erfuhr, und sorgte bis 1924 für die Sammlung eines Großteils seiner weitverstreuten Veröffentlichungen in den siebenbändigen Gesammelten Aufsätzen. 1936 folgte die Herausgabe einer Sammlung seiner Jugendbriefe. Eine anschließend geplante Veröffentlichung seiner Reisebriefe aus den 1890er Jahren wurde nicht verwirklicht. Nach ihrer Rückkehr nach Heidelberg 1921 wurde ihr 1922 für ihre Herausgebertätigkeit die Ehrendoktorwürde der dortigen Universität verliehen.

Ihre einflussreiche Biografie Max Weber. Ein Lebensbild veröffentlichte sie 1926. Bis zu ihrem Tod 1954 war sie in Heidelberg als Wissenschaftlerin und Autorin aktiv. Sie führte den privaten Gesprächskreis mit Heidelberger Gelehrten weiter, den ihr Mann bereits zu seinen Lebzeiten begründet hatte und an dem ihr Schwager Alfred Weber beteiligt war. Zudem kümmerte sie sich um die vier Kinder von Max Webers jüngster Schwester Lili, für die sie nach deren Freitod 1920 die Vormundschaft übernahm und die sie schließlich 1928 adoptierte. Die eigene Ehe war kinderlos geblieben.

Ehrungen

 1922 wurde Marianne Weber die Ehrendoktorwürde der juristischen Fakultät der Universität Heidelberg verliehen.
 In Lemgo ist das Marianne-Weber-Gymnasium nach ihr benannt.
 In Recklinghausen und in Oerlinghausen sind Straßen nach Marianne Weber benannt.

FBN2 pathogenic variants have been identified in up to 75% of individuals diagnosed with Congenital Contractural Arachnodactyly (Gupta et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11754102; Callewaert et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19006240).
Congenital Contractural Arachnodactyly (CCA), also known as Beals syndrome, is characterized by a tall, slender habitus in which arm span exceeds height, and arachnodactyly (Hecht and Beals. 1972. PubMed ID: 4552107; Putnam et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7493032; Wang et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8900230). Classical CCA patients are diagnosed by a constellation of clinical findings that include the Marfanoid habitus such as flexion contractures of multiple joints including elbows, knees, ankles, hips, fingers and toes; kyphosis/scoliosis, muscular hypoplasia and abnormal pinnae (Wang et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8900230; Snape et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16531736; Callewaert et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19006240; Buchan et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24833718; Godfrey. 2012. PubMed ID: 20301560). Infants with severe/lethal CCA have cardiovascular and gastrointestinal anomalies. Cardiovascular anomalies include atrial or ventricular septal defect, interrupted aortic arch, single umbilical artery, and rarely aortic root dilatation. Gastrointestinal anomalies include duodenal or esophageal atresia and intestinal malrotation (Wang et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8900230; Snape et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16531736).
CCA is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner due to pathogenic variants in in the FBN2 (Putnam et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7493032; Wang et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8900230; Callewaert et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19006240). Many individuals with CCA have an affected parent, but de novo variants have been reported (Callewaert et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19006240). FBN2 encodes the Fibrillin-2 protein, an extracellular matrix protein that has a calcium-binding EGF-like motif and a TGF binding protein-like motif (Putnam et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7493032; Wang et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8900230). A mix of nonsense, splicing, deletion, insertion, duplication and missense pathogenic variants have been reported in the FBN2 gene (Putnam et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7493032; Wang et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8900230; Callewaert et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19006240; Park et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9714438; Gupta et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11754102). The majority of CCA pathogenic variants in FBN2 substitute a cysteine residue to another amino acid and reside in the 13th to 23rd calcium binding-epidermal growth factor (cbEGF) like domains (Callewaert et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19006240). Somatic mosaicism for an FBN2 pathogenic variant has been reported in one case (Putnam et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9106527).
This test provides full coverage of all coding exons of the FBN2 gene, plus ~10 bases of flanking noncoding DNA. We define full coverage as >20X NGS reads or Sanger sequencing.
Candidates for this test are patients with symptoms consistent with CCA and family members of patients who have known FBN2 pathogenic variants.


Thank you FlyBy for this review copy.
You know, being a mom takes a lot of energy... physical energy... mental energy... and emotional energy. Guess what mom's seem to run out of? That's right. Energy. Becky Johnson and Rachel Randolph are a mom and daughter writing team. Although they are at different stages in life, they both feel the drain of energy as they try to balance all the energy pulls on their lives.
I know that feeling. I'm wife to a restaurant owner, mom to four children, homeschool mom, church member, reviewer and blog writer. I also have a house to keep, a fur baby to care for and dirty laundry that reproduces at a rate that would make a rabbit blush!
The word that comes to mind in describing this book is sensible. It's just sensible to take care of yourself so that you can take care of others and do what God has called you to do. They don't advocate me me me. They give ideas for nourishing yourself in these areas: spaces and routines, your body (food and exercise), your relationships, and your spirit.
There was a fresh quality to the writing that at once made me want to read more and to put more time into my friendships and relationships. This is a good book. It's one that I plan to read again.
Read the publisher's description below, enter the book giveaway, and check out this excerpt on Becky and Rachel's blog. I think you'll like their friend to friend style of writing.
Rachel Randolph writes and speaks with humor and honesty about parenting a toddler, young married life, and her mostly plant-based cooking adventures. Rachel is married to Jared, a high school football and baseball coach. They live near Dallas, Texas with their son, Jackson. Nourished is her second book.
Thanks for the giveaways, Laura!

I'd put money on it being the stereotypical image of a morose teenager with a penchant for emo music and too much black eyeliner.
Not for a minute would you imagine that it's something that I, a late 30s mum of two, a professional writer and active member of a church community, still struggle with.
But I do. And my mental health problems are evident whenever I roll up my sleeves or put on a swimming costume: some scars faded and barely visible; others still livid and unmistakable.
There are no definitive statistics on how many adults in the UK self-harm, but given that according to the Mental Health Foundation, up to 10% of English people will experience depression in their lifetime, it's safe to say I'm not alone.
Self-harm is the source of intense shame, and it's particularly acute when you're an adult who battles with it.
It's a vicious circle: the more ashamed I feel, the more inclined I am to punish myself – and on and on it goes.
There are many different forms of self-harm, from hair-pulling to overdosing. My particular 'poison' is cutting – something I share with around 15% of self-harming adults, according to the Royal College of Psychiatrists.
One thing I've discovered about being an adult who self-harms is that it's far easier to 'get away with it' than it was when I was a teenager.
No longer do I have my parents hovering outside my bedroom door or demanding to check my arms for signs of self-injury.
And these days, no one asks for my ID when I go to the supermarket and buy a packet of razors.
With no one putting the brakes on, I've self-harmed far more often than I ever did as a depressed teen, and far more severely.
I've needed hospital treatment for my injuries on many occasions.
But while the act of self-harm may be easier to accomplish as an adult, the consequences are much, much harder to deal with.
I don't pose a risk to anyone but myself, yet I see people looking at my scars in the school playground.
I see their reluctance to let their kids come over for play-dates.
I've been investigated by social services – an automatic process in our area for people who attend the hospital with a mental health issue – to assess my suitability as a mother.
And how do I explain to my children that sometimes, mummy feels so bad that she cuts herself?
It's been four months since I last self-harmed, but still, my mental health struggles are written all over my body.
The scars are ugly and disfiguring, but I'm not an ogre.
I'm a woman who's battling mental illness every single day, living with the stigma of being an adult self-harmer.
There are many of us fighting this war, alongside getting on with the normal business of adulting.
We are mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, sons and daughters and friends.
We are employees and unemployed, travel fanatics and homebodies, gym bunnies and book lovers.
But whoever we are, from whatever walk of life, we are not freaks.


Devise to tantalize in this tony evening gown by La Femme. Cutout shoulders and a jazzy jewel neckline debut the halter-style bodice while finely tailored lines trace a trim fit along the curves of bust, waist and hips, drawing an hourglass silhouette. A sumptuous split details the full-length skirt as it gradually flares to a fluttery finish at the feet.


The 3-Story Robots is a large projection mapped head rolling around on a custom-built robotics platform, that tells a 3D animated story about the future of humans and robots coevolution. After tracking the viewer and rolling toward and away from the viewer, turning to avoid walls, they stop and tell a 10- minute narrated story about how humans and intelligent robots will come together. These robots use projection mapped video onto a soft, translucent, front facing flat screen to tell stories about our emerging relationships with a semi-living robotic species.
Stories of symbiogenesis where future robotic augmentations will allow us to communicate clearly with insects, animals, and plants. In this future, humans are also forming loving relationships with robots and they are increasingly replacing humans in the work-pool. Robotic buttons are now able to dispense pharmaceuticals with new nano sniffer air jets and robots oversee all human productivity, by watching us statistically while at the same time they are dependent on us as they are powered by human waste streams. These works were commissioned by the National Center for Arts for the Machinic Error exhibition, curated by Gabriela Romero Mexico City, 2015.
In future the robots this have developed the capability to sense our pheromonal chemical signals and read our secret desires, to use these to manipulate us. Slowly they assume greater and greater roles in human and robotic coevolution by taking the lead in how they are evolving.
In the scene above the fem bot is at a business to interview for the artificial intelligence specialist WHO gave rise to her. She has the capability to use her pheromones to manipulate him as he walks by her leaving for his lunch.
Above in the animation is an arthropod nano-glove. As part of the animation, the main protagonist is massaging the head of his pet cricket Minerva. These gloves can reach into nano-spaces with fingers grown on fingers to reach to the sub-molecular. Hans Morovic discusses nano gloves in his writings.
Below is an image of the 3D animation discussing the difficulty the protagonist is having with the notion that his daughter was born in a robotic incubator.
Maker Faire, Ottawa, Canada, Premiere of the 3-Story Robot in Happy Machine, invited Remco Volmer.
The sculpture was created using an existing animation called the Pheromone Robot Stories by Ken Rinaldo, Mario Serrano, and Keung Yoon. The software For This robot was done in MAX MSP and Jitter talking MAXUINO via a PC, nano projector and projection mapped face and scenes. Motion control was via an Arduino talking MAXUINO to a PC running Windows via an L298 motor control board.
This work can be displayed in the normal darkened room Either in a ring or not. If not in a ring it can avoid walls though it can not see tables or chairs or other such objects though I will avoid walls and large obstacles. It can navigate to find people to stop and tell me the story. The best display space is a room 20 x 15 feet minimum size.

Wellgood Work > Blog With Right Sidebar > energy > Touching the Divine….
We are always connected with the Divine, Source, Spirit, God, Oneness…..whether we can feel it or not. But periodically we break through all that's in our way, and feel who we really are. We feel that inextricable connection with our true nature. Sometimes in a greater or lesser degree, but it's unmistakable. The most unlikely thing could be a trigger for the opening……a piece of music, the quietness of morning when the rest of the house is still asleep, the purring of a cat, the trust and awareness that all is unfolding perfectly, no matter what it looks like. Sometimes I feel this wave of loving indivisibility just sitting at the computer, appreciating this visible expression of energy flying through the ether.
I felt that liquid wave of love this morning….. and in that moment, my heart filled with love – for everyone and everything. Unconditional love is loving the perfect, whole and complete spirit of everyone, not the fallible human. And no matter what our faulty human is doing, everyone's Higher Self, everyone's true being, is pure loving light. Our work in this lifetime is to learn to align with that loving being that we naturally are. And when we do, when we touch the Divine, our Divine nature, we remember who we really are. And we can go on, and more gracefully navigate this vale of tears. That is why it is said, May we all come to know ourselves as radiance……I see you all as radiant beings.
Thank you, Ginny! I so appreciate your support and lovingkindness. You have been a great teacher to me in my journey.

Oct 5, 2006 US CO: Hippie-Hating And -Baiting Possession of an ounce of marijuana by adults will be legal if Colorado's Amendment 44 wins. ... Amendment 44 is about more than marijuana: It's about civil rights and America's future. "Yeah, the '60s are over with," the man growls, "but they forgot to tell them that up in Boulder." Or, apparently, in a good portion of Colorado. Today, hippies aren't supposed to exist; yet, look around, and there they are, the majority of whom had yet to be born when the '60s ended. I'd estimate that nationally, hippies comprise about 10 percent of the population; in Colorado, that figure is probably higher. We tend to recite the cliche that hippies no longer exist because powerful forces in America want us to think just that. They consider the counterculture a menace to Western civilization, something with no rightful place in today's America.

With 11 such requests turned down in a single shot, he said, "this is a first in Canada."
The increasing potency of marijuana -- spurred on by hydroponic growers in places such as B.C. -- means the world should no longer consider pot a "soft" drug, according to a report released Monday by the United Nations. "Today, the harmful characteristics of cannabis are no longer that different from those of other plant-based drugs such as cocaine and heroin," Antonio Maria Costa, director of the UN's Office on Drugs and Crimes, said in a written statement.
UNODC Executive Director, Antonio Maria Costa claims that the world is experiencing a devastating "cannabis pandemic". This gentleman is the same person who said we were putting "cannabis oil" on pasta. It was pointed out that is was hemp oil which is not a sativa product. He didn't know the difference and appeared not to care. Simply another high paid UN stooge. Isn't it amazing that the US only supports the UN when they toe the US "drug war" line.

The much awaited panel discussion on "Science of Healthy Living" was initiated and moderated by Mr.Rohit Shelatkar. He posed questions to the eminent personalities from the medical fraternity on the panel, such as Dr. Shashank Joshi, Dr. Nandita Palshetkar, Dr. Hrishikesh Pai, Dr. Ameet Patki, Dr. Santosh Karmarkar and Dr. Anish Desai.
The key topics of discussion amongst doctors was on how nutritional needs change during different life stages, metabolic disorders, and impact of lifestyle disorders on reproductive health and pregnancy.
The special invitees at the event included other well-known personalities like legendary West Indies cricketer Sir Gordon Greenidge, Dr.P.S Pasricha (Ex-Director General of Police – Maharashtra), Indian cricketer – Venkatesh Iyer, Vasant Jadhav (Deputy Commissioner – State intelligence Dept.), Ashish Ambasta (Thought Leader – Life Science Technology Industry), Bollywood celebrities like , Addinath Kothare, Amruta Khanvilkar, Dr. Nishigandha Wad, and Tripat Singh – 77 year old model & influencer were also present at the event. The key points revolved around importance of nutrition and supplementation for management of lifestyle and age related disorders.

Weekly Ṣalawāt: Yā Khāliq
We continue our journey through Sayyidī Ḥabīb `Umar's collection of prayers using Allah's beautiful names. In this collection, Ḥabīb `Umar calls upon Allah by His beautiful names one by one and then asks Him to bestow prayers upon His Beloved by those names. Finally, he asks Allah for a portion of those attributes which belong to Allah and which He has bestowed upon His Messenger ﷺ. He thus teaches us about the attributes of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ and teaches us how to seek a portion of those attributes.
اللَّهُمَّ يا اللهُ يا خَالِق صَلِّ على عَبْدِكَ و حَبِيبِكَ سَيِّدِنا مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ أَكْرَمِ خَلْقِكَ و أَسْعَدِ مَخْلوقَاتِكَ و على آلِهِ و صَحْبِهِ و سَلِّمْ تَسْلِيماً و حَسِّنْ بِهِ خَلْقِي و خُلُقي فَضْلاً و إِحْسَاناً

O Allāh, O Creator, bestow abundant prayers and peace upon Your slave and beloved, our Master Muḥammad, the Prophet, the most noble and felicitous of Your creatures and upon his Family and Companions and by him beautify my outer form and my character out of Your bounty and kindness.

A Prayer for Divine Care
Sayyidi Habib `Umar bin Hafīz recommends reading the following du`a of Habib `Ali al-Habashi:
الَّلهُمَّ اجْعَلْنا مِمَّنْ رَعَتْهُمْ عَيْنُ عِنَايَتِكَ فِي جَمِيعِ الأَطْوَار
فَلَمْ يَمْنَعْهُمْ عَنْ الدُّخُولِ إلى حَضْرَتِكَ قَبِيحُ الأَوْزَار
ولَمْ يَحْجُبْهُمْ عَنْ مَوَاهِبِ فَضْلِكَ سَيِّءُ الِإصْرَار
O Allah, make me among those who are in Your complete care in all their states, so that their wrongdoings do not prevent them from entering into Your presence and their persistent sins do not deprive them of Your bounties.

Selected Salawat: Ahabb al-Ahbab
This prayer upon the Prophet ﷺ was composed by Habib `Ali al-Habashi (may Allah have mercy upon him and benefit us by him)
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ وسَلِّمْ على سَيِّدِنا مُحَمَّدٍ أَحَبِّ الأَحْبَاب، الذي ذِكْرُهُ يُنَوِّرُ الأَلْباب و ما ذَكَرْنَاهُ في مَجْلِسٍ إِلَّا وطَاب
Allahumma salli wa sallim `ala sayyidina Muhammad ahabbi'l-ahbab alladhi dhikruhu yunawwiru'l-albab wa ma dhakarnahu fi majlis illa wa tab.
O Allah, bestow Your prayers and peace upon our Master Muhammad, the most beloved of all those who are beloved, the one whose remembrance illuminates the intellect. Whenever we mention him in a gathering it becomes sweet.

On Being Distracted While Making Dhikr
Answered by Sayyidi Habib Umar bin Hafiz (may Allah protect him and benefit us by him)
I find myself thinking about calling to Allah when I am making dhikr. Is this blameworthy?
You should focus on the meaning of the dhikr that you are reading. Everything has an appointed time and you should focus on the thing you are doing while you are doing it. An exception to this is an urgent issue relating to calling to Allah which needs to be addressed immediately.

On the books of Shaykh `Abd al-Qadir al-Jaylani
Do you recommend we read the books of Shaykh `Abd al-Qadir al-Jaylani?
Yes, the Shaykh was one of the greatest knowers of Allah as well as being one of the descendants of the Prophet ﷺ. He has benefited people throughout the world. One of his best known works is al-Futuhat al-Rabbaniyyah, which is a collection of transcripts of his speeches. It has a good effect upon the reader and brings about purification and illumination. Another work of his, al-Ghunyah, is also beneficial but a few parts which are not his work have been added to it.

Weekly Ṣalawāt: Yā Mutakabbir
اللَّهُمَّ يا اللهُ يا مُتَكَبِّر صَلِّ على عَبْدِكَ و حَبِيبِكَ سَيِّدِنا مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ أَعْظَمِ الخَلْقِ تَوَاضُعَاً لَكَ و على آلِهِ و صَحْبِهِ و سَلِّمْ تَسْلِيماً و نَقِّنِي بِهِ عَنْ شَوَائِبِ الكِبْرِ و ارْزُقْني تَوَاضُعَاً عَظِيماً
Allāhumma yā Allāhu yā Mutakabbir ṣalli `alā `abdika wa ḥabībika sayyidinā Muḥammad a`ẓami'l-khalqi tawāḍuan laka wa `alā ālihi wa ṣaḥbihi wa sallim tasliman wa naqqinī bihi `an shawā'ibi'l-kibri w'arzuqnī tawāḍuan `aẓīma
O Allāh, O Justly Proud, bestow abundant prayers and peace upon Your slave and beloved, our Master Muḥammad, the one who has humbled himself to you the most and upon his Family and Companions and by him purify me from the contamination of arrogance and bless me with immense humility.
The above is a prayer upon the Prophet ﷺ composed by Sayyidī al-Ḥabīb `Umar bin Ḥafīẓ. The weekly salat has no set number and has not been prescribed by one of our teachers. We started sending out these salawat out of a desire to share some of these beautiful formulas with those that we love. Try to read it once at least upon first seeing it and then read it as many times as you are able. The more salawat you read, the more gifts you will receive. It should not take priority over any other adhkar you have been given by your teachers. The best time to read it is on Thursday night and Friday since the Messenger of Allah ﷺ encouraged us to bestow abundant prayers upon him at these times. It can of course, be read at any time and in any place.

Imam al-`Adani
On the 13th of Rabī` Thānī, we commemorate the life of Imam Abū Bakr al-`Adanī. This was the date on which he entered the Yemeni port of Aden and began to transform the city. To this day, the people of Aden continue to celebrate this day.
His Lineage
He is Imām Abū Bakr al-`Adanī bin Imām `Abdullāh al-`Aydarūs bin Shaykh Abū Bakr al-Sakrān bin Shaykh `Abd al-Raḥmān al-Saqqāf bin Shaykh Muḥammad Mawlā al-Dawīlah, bin `Alī Mawlā al-Darak, bin `Alawī al-Ghayūr, bin al-Faqīh al-Muqaddam Muḥammad, bin `Alī, bin Muḥammad Ṣāḥib Mirbāṭ, bin `Alī Khāli` Qasam, bin `Alawī, bin Muḥammad Ṣāḥib al-Ṣawma`ah, bin `Alawī, bin `Ubaydullāh, bin al-Imām al-Muhājir il-Allāh Aḥmad, bin ` Īsā, bin Muḥammad al-Naqīb, bin `Ali al-`Urayī, bin Ja`far al-Ṣādiq, bin Muḥammad al-Bāqir, bin `Ali Zayn al-`Ābidīn, bin Ḥusayn al-Sibṭ, bin `Alī bin Abī Ṭālib and Fāṭimah al-Zahrā', the daughter of our Master Muḥammad, the Seal of the Prophets ﷺ.
His mother was al-Sayyidah al-Waliyyah `Ā'ishah bint Shaykh `Umar al-Miḥḍār.
He was born in Tarīm in 851 (1447). His father said before his birth: "I have been given good tidings of a child who will be amongst the elect of Allah, who will receive special care from Allah (`ināyah) and who will possess noble character." His father took care of his upbringing and spiritual progress, along with his uncle, Shaykh `Alī bin Abū Bakr al-Sakrān and Shaykh Sa`d bin `Alī Madḥaj. He memorised the Qur'ān and mastered the Islamic sciences while still in his youth, leading his father to appoint him as a shaykh of the inward and outward sciences at the age of 14. From then on his life was spent teaching and calling to Allah.
In his youth he would worship by night in the valleys outside Tarīm, along with his cousin, Shaykh `Abd al-Raḥmān bin `Alī. They would both read a third of the Qur'ān in prayer and then return to Tarīm before Fajr. Imām al-`Adanī went for twenty years without sleeping.
He requested his father's permission to travel in search of knowledge, but first his father wished to test him. He told him to go to the market place and bring back someone who was worse than him. Imām al-`Adanī followed his father's instructions, but whenever he saw someone who outwardly did not seem to be upright he asked himself: 'How can I judge his inner state?' It was then that he came across a dog. He was sure that he was better than the dog and he decided to take it with him. Then a thought came to him: 'If I cross the Ṣirāṭ and enter Paradise I am better than this dog, but if I fall into the Hell Fire, then this dog is better than me.' He thus left the dog and returned to his father, having found no-one that was worse than him. His father was content that he had passed the test and allowed him to travel.
On his return from his second ḥajj, the scholars of the city of Aden heard that he was nearby and resolved to come to meet him. Instead he informed them that he would come to visit them. Thousands of people came to greet him as he entered Aden on 13th Rabī` al-Thānī 889. He said: "It is my intention to take all these people to Allah."
The people of Aden continue to celebrate the day of his arrival in the city to this day.
He took up residence in Aden, built a mosque and began to teach. Students from far and wide came to learn from him and the religious life of Aden flourished. He had great concern for the common people, especially those not on the straight path. He said: "If I see a believer who Allah has given the ability to perform that which is incumbent upon him and to avoid enormities, then I am content. What troubles me is when I see a believer who has fallen into disobedience of Allah and into the traps of the Devil, so I expend my efforts to save him." Knowing that the night is the time when most acts of disobedience are committed, he would gather the people together every night to remember Allah. The gathering would continue until Fajr, at which point he would lead the people in prayer and then give them a day's wages and tell them to go home and sleep. Their souls thus became accustomed to obeying Allah, and they had no time to disobey Him.
He was famous for his noble character and immense generosity, which led him to accumulate great debts in order to help the needy. One of his companions rebuked him for accumulating these debts, to which he retorted: "Do not come between me and my Lord, for I have only spent this money seeking His pleasure, and He has promised me that He will pay back these debts before I leave this life." Every year he set aside money for students of knowledge and visitors and contributed to many charitable projects, such as the repair of the mosques of Tarīm and the construction of drainage channels to prevent flooding in Aden and several areas of Ḥaḍramawt.
His Dīwān of poetry and the letters are filled with wisdom and guidance. To this day, his poems are often recited in gatherings of knowledge and remembrance. He counselled people to have a good opinion of Allah, which he called 'the greatest treasure' and 'Allah's greatest name,' and to have a good opinion of Allah's slaves. He said: "The one who has a good opinion of someone will not lose out even if his opinion proves to be wrong; the one who has a bad opinion of someone will not benefit even if his opinion proves to be correct." He gave the following counsels: "Anyone who does not prevent himself from following his caprice will experience abasement;" "two things cause the foolish person the most trouble: greed and getting involved in that which does not concern him."
He said: "You must visit the awliyā' and come to know them. Your intention must be correct and your belief must be firm, for the spiritual and physical realms are linked just like the spirit and the body are linked. No blessings come from the spiritual realm except by means of movement in the physical realm. The evidence for this is in Allah saying to Maryam: Shake towards yourself the trunk of the palm tree1 and saying to Mūsā: Strike the sea with your staff.2 Allah thus made the shaking and the movement of the staff in the physical realm a cause for the receiving of blessings from the spiritual realm."
He would often make the following invocation in his gatherings:
اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنَا
مِنَ العُقُولِ أَوْفَرَهَا ، وَمِنَ الأَذْهَانِ أَصْفَاهَا ،
وَمِنَ الأَعْمَالِ أَزْكَاهَا، وَمِنَ الأخْلاقِ أَطْيَبَهَا ،
وَمِنَ الأَرْزَاقِ أَجْزَلَهَا ، وَمِنَ العَافِيَةِ أَكْمَلَهَا ،
وَمِنَ الدُّنْيَا خَيْرَهَا، وَمِنْ الآخِرَةِ نَعِيمَهَا
"O Allah, bless us with the most expansive of intellects, the purest of minds, the purest of actions, the best of character, the most plentiful provision, complete well-being, the best of this life and the blessings of the afterlife."
His Death
He remained in Aden until his death in 914 (1508). He was buried next to the mosque which he established. The sultan of the time erected a great dome over his grave and built a school next to the mosque, Ribāṭ al-`Aydarūs. The Ribāṭ continues to flourish to this day, under the directorship of Ḥabīb Abū Bakr al-`Adanī bin `Alī al-Mashhūr (may Allah preserve him), who has also greatly revived the annual visit in Rabī` al-Thānī.

The Fruits of Gatherings of Knowledge
Advice from Habib Muhammad al-Haddar (may Allah have mercy upon him and benefit us by him).
Knowledge without action is like a tree without any fruit. If you learn things and then do not act upon them they are a proof against you. The words which you hear are recorded by everything – even your body.
The verses of the Qur'an will say:
"I am the verse which you heard!"
Believers thus intend to act upon everything they hear. They say:
"We hear and we obey!"
And ask for enabling grace (tawfīq). They prepare themselves to receive Allah's gifts (nafahat). These gifts come to you without any effort. The gatherings of knowledge contain great gifts from Allah.
O Allah, do not deprive of us the good You possess due to the evil we possess.

Preparing for the Grave
Advice from Habib Muhammad al-Haddar (may Allah have mercy on him and benefit us by him).
Make your grave the most important thing, for the day on which you are placed in your grave is the hardest day, the day on which you are most in need. For this reason some scholars were of the opinion that it is obligatory to seek refuge in Allah from the punishment of the grave in every prayer. Among them was Imam Ta'us al-San`ani, the student of Sayyiduna `Abdullah Ibn `Abbas. One day he asked his son if he had sought refuge from the punishment of the grave in his prayer. When his son said no, he told him to repeat his prayer. The Prophet himself sought refuge from it, so why do we not do so? He taught us to say:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابِ جَهَنَّمَ و مِنْ عَذَابِ القَبْرِ و مِنْ شَرِّ فِتْنَةِ المَحْيا و المَمَات و مِنْ شَرِّ فِتْنَةِ المَسِيحِ الدَّجَّال
O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the Hell Fire, the punishment of the grave, the tribulations of life and death and the tribulation of al-Masih al-Dajjal.

The Ummah's Golden Calf
Look at how the businessmen in Makkah and Jeddah have mastered their trade. They plaster their advertisements everywhere! If only these billboards clarified the rites of the Hajj and the etiquettes of entering Makkah! These advertisements are proof of their love of material things.
Truly the Messenger of Allah ﷺ told the truth! One day he recounted to his Companions the story of the people of Musa who, after being saved from Fir`awn, began worshipping the golden calf. The Companions were astounded that after receiving these signs these people lowered themselves to such a level. The Prophet told them not to be surprised.
He told them:
"Every nation has its (golden) calf, and the calf of my nation is gold and silver."
They will worship material things, all their ambitions will be focused on attaining material things and they will travel and attain qualifications for worldly gain.
To Allah we belong and to Him we will return!
[We wonder what Habib Muhammad would have said if he had seen the state of Makkah today!]

Generation Z Holds The Key To Email: Study
by Ray Schultz , Columnist, December 13, 2017
Email usage is just about saturated among Millennials and Generation X. But there is one group for whom it is growing: Generation Z, in the 13-21 age category. So little is known about them that they don't yet have a clear stereotype.
But we do know that they view email as essential, thanks to The Future of Digital Communications, a study by SendGrid and Egg Strategy.
Of the Gen Z members polled, 85% of have an overwhelming preference for email communications. They are outranked in this area by Millennials (89%) and Gen Xers (92%).
But that's today. Of the Gen Z respondents, 48% expect their email use to increase in the next five years, compared with 36% of Millennials and 23% of Gen Xers.
Of 1,200 consumers surveyed overall, 67% view email as essential or important to their lives. But 33% say it is neither
At the same time, 79% of consumers say their email usage has risen or held steady over the past five years, especially those in younger generations. And 74% of people choose email as the preferred channel for companies or brands to interact with them.
Granted, text messages and phone calls outweigh email in all generations — but not by much. And email beats out social media and communication apps
Gen Z is less likely to use email for work — but that's to be expected, as most have not yet entered the workforce. They deem email essential for:
Personal emails between me and individual people I know (outside of work) — 68%
Emails from companies sending advertisements, coupons, receipts from purchases or password resets — 68%
Professional emails between me and people I work with — 36%
Professional emails between me and companies connected to my occupation — 24%
According to the study, email is preferred by 70% of Gen Z for company-to-consumer interactions, compared with 72% of Millennials and 79% of Gen Xers.
And 34% like to receive physical direct mail in the form of promotions and catalogs. Millennials and Gen Xers are more likely to desire that.
Overall, 32% of all consumers prefer to sign up for newsletters, including 29% of Gen Zs. And identical percentages choose to email a company when communicating. However ,39% prefer to "like" or follow up in some other way on social media.
Gen Z also ranks highest in anticipated growth in these areas:
Professional emails between me and companies connected to my occupation—55%
Professional emails between me and people I work with—57%
Advertising or marketing emails from companies sending me information or coupons—42%
Personal emails between me and individual people I know (outside of work)—35%
In addition, 39% expect their advertising and marketing communications will increase in the next year, vs. 34% of Millennials and 28% of Gen Xers.
Here's one more piece of good news for email marketers: Content sent by email, text and voice/video chat are viewed as lasting and important. In contrast, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat are seen as having fleeting influence. Facebook straddles the middle.
