Every lamp is an original! The fascination of the salt crystals is based in the various shades and individual forms of the crystals. The lamps are produced mostly by handicraft. No chemical additives are used.
The magnifying atmosphere of a salt crystal lamp is not only due to the warm light. Salt crystals emit neutralizing ions, thus improving the climate of a room. When illuminated, this effect is supplemented by vibrations of light. Different institutes are conducting scientific studies in this field.
A salt crystal lamp will enhance the atmosphere of any room. You will be fascinated by the natural light and the uniqueness of your new lamp. The small crystal lamps weigh between 2-3.5kg, the larger lamps weigh 15-20kg. Each lamp makes a statement of its own. All of the lamps include a solid wood base.
Are there benefits to having a Crystal Salt Lamp?
Salt crystal candleholders and lamps are highly suitable for daily use in the whole house or even in your office.
They are perfect for Reiki practitioners, doctors, dentists, massage therapists, reflexologists, therapists, as well as just regular folks.
In bed rooms, in living rooms, in dining rooms, in the hall way, in meditation rooms, near televisions, computers, and around smokers.
Use these beautiful lamps in offices to reduce fatigue. The lamp will minimize the effect of computer and office equipment radiation, and beautifies surroundings of your work area.
They can improve your concentration and refresh you by neutralizing the effects of an artificial environment.
Use the lamp in waiting rooms to create a relaxing atmosphere, during massage therapy, and anywhere else you want to restore or maintain the natural air quality.
The benefit of ionizers is well known. While most ionizers on the market are man made machines, the salt crystal lamp is a beautiful alternative of mother nature, without any noise and NO harmful OZONE!
Europeans have been aware of the HEALTH BENEFITS of salt for generations, and people suffering from chronic congestive problems go to clinics located in salt mines for treatment! It's called SPELEOTHERAPY. The very dry, negative ion-rich environment of these salt mines helps to clear out the patients' bronchial tubes and sinuses, and kills bacteria and other microbes.
Perhaps you have noticed that your feeling of well being is intensified in pure mountain air, at the seashore, or after a thunderstorm. This is due to the higher concentration of negative ions in these surroundings. t is no coincidence that healing spas are, as a rule, located in areas with foaming salt water or roaring mountain springs which generate plentiful negative ions. They also cause air particles to achieve electrical or ionic balance.
How and where can I use a Salt Crystal Lamp?
On a night table next to where you sleep.
On your desk, close to your computer.
In your living room, close to where you spend time in the evenings.
In your meditation or reading room.
In your bathroom or powder room.
Salt Crystal Lamps make wonderful gifts. Besides being beautiful to look at, they are enriching to your environment. They provide the same ion-rich condition found at the seashore or close to a mountain spring.
What an AMAZING gift that gives so much by just sitting in your home.
Salt has hygroscopic properties, which means that it draws water from the surrounding atmosphere. Salt Crystal Lamps should therefore never be sprinkled with water, kept in a moist room or be placed outdoors. Sometimes, in particularly moist or humid conditions, the lamp surface may be slightly damp to the touch. Lighting it for a few hours dries it very quickly. If crystallization occurs, just wiping with a damp cloth will get rid of it. For most everyday situations, this is not a concern. It is recommended that you light your lamp every day for the best air purifying results, and you can leave your lamps on for as long as possible. This will not only maintain a constant negative ionizing process, but also repel excess moisture build up around the lamp. If you plan not to use the lamp for longer periods of time, just put a plastic bag on the lamp as prevention from humid conditions.
Keep out of reach of children. Always unplug the lamp before changing the light bulb to prevent electric shock. If you choose to place a Salt Crystal Lamp on a wooden surface, please ensure that it has a waterproof base so that you do not damage your furniture.
These are natural room ionisers, providing a beautiful warm glow to enhance the room's atmosphere. A beautiful gift or treat for yourself.
If the lamp is next to a television or computer monitor, it's effect, through its electromagnetic field, of the device is in approximately the 100-160Hz zone. Our brain waves however, produce only 8Hz according to the Schuman resonance frequency. Therefore, the body is exposed to up to 20 times higher frequency patterns than it is generally used to. The consequences of this exposure results in nervousness, insomnia and lack of concentration or concentration weaknesses. In addition, there will be an accumulation of more free radicals in the body, known to be a cause of cancer.
In addition to this, the colours of the salt crystal stones have a healing effect. The therapeutic value of the coloured crystals can reorganize the epidermal layer of our skin. Tests made with kids having ADHD symptoms have shown that after only one week of exposure to crystal salt lamps, their symptoms subsided. After removing the lamps, the symptoms returned.
Facilitates a feeling of security and is helpful to our nervous system and our mind and activates the kidneys and bladder.
Encourages intellectual comprehension and activates the pancreas, liver and gall bladder.
Strengthens the vital life force and activates the heart and circulation.
Has a cleansing and detoxifying effect and represents the healing aspect.
Helps to find ones own balance and supports earthiness.
It's a well know fact that, through scientific and empirical research, salt crystal lamps exhibit biophysical characteristics, which demonstrate a positive effect on our well-being. From a scientific view there are three natural action principles at play: ionization , the electromagnetic oscillation and the transparent-crystalline structure developing the light waves.
Before we discuss the above mentioned characteristics of the salt crystal lamps in detail, we would like to point out that salt is a primal element, like water and air and its natural minerals and trace element have unique biophysical and biochemical characteristics. Salt is to be regarded as neutral, chemically as well as physically, without its own polarity, always balancing and neutralizing. Exactly like our planet earth's makeup, human beings consist of about 70% water; brine water more specifically. This enormous potential on enclosed brine solution transmits the cosmic oscillation (vibration) energy, not only evenly over our planets, but also reaches deep into our most minute cells and nerves. It is not only the salt from chemical view that the body needs salt in order to maintain our entire bodily functions, but the salt, from biophysical view , will always be able to bring the body back into its natural energy vibration rhythm.
World-wide laboratory tests with the most diverse kinds of measuring methodology furnished the proof that the lit salt crystal lamps deliver ions to our environment. Primarily, the research points to an increased number of negative ions. The emission of ions is primarily caused by the alternating actions of the salt's ability to first absorb water, then evaporate it. To explain this more precisely, the heated salt crystal attracts the water molecules from the ambient air to its surface. The salt goes into a solution as it mixes with the water molecules. Sodium, as the positively charged ion, and chloride, as a negatively charged ion, becomes neutral and are emitted back into the environment. The uniqueness of this ion emission interrelation is only possible with the mineral salt, since salt possesses this transformation ability with water due to it's electrically neutral atomic structure. Scientific investigations of the last decades proved clearly that a balanced ion relationship with a little surplus of negative ions, can have extremely positive affects on our entire physical condition and our health. The heated salt crystal lamps can be referred to, according to research, as natural ion generators. Here however it is pointed out that the emission of ions by heated salt crystal lamps, should not be regarded as the primary characteristic, because from scientific standpoint, the surplus of negative ions is negligible. More important is it's ability to clean the ambient air. Depending upon size and surface area of the salt crystal used for the lamp, the ambient air surrounding it is measurably cleaned by the transformation cycle of hydrogen and oxygen, as well as sodium and chloride ions. This characteristic is especially helpful for relieving the symptoms associated with asthma and allergies in general.
The Earth is surrounded by an electromagnetic belt, and within this belt every form of life comes and goes. Therefore, every form of life on this planet earth depends on the power of this electromagnetic field of vibration, known as the Schuman resonance frequency , which states that the given frequency of this electromagnetic field is at 7.83 Hz (cycles) per second . This value in known to be the resonant frequency of our earth. The resonant frequency is the most often frequency of measurement applied to mammals and can be measured as the resonant frequency of our brains with an EEG. Also, a salt crystal, in its neutral state, exhibits this exact frequency oscillation value. But doe to our industrialized and technical way of life, the human organism is being affected, particularly in our homes and offices, to artificial electromagnetic wavelengths with the most diverse frequency values, caused by electronics devices. These frequencies have been proven not only to disturb our human organism, but also to promote illness, since they constantly overlap our natural resonant frequency. As a result of this constant exposure to various frequencies, our own electromagnetic energy field becomes imprinted by the frequencies forced upon it, which upsets the natural development of our cells. Because of the atomic structure of the salt, which is already neutral, it is most likely that the artificial frequencies can be harmonized or balanced by the lit salt lamp as it works as a natural amplifier for the resonant frequency of 8-10 cycles per second, which is so necessary for our life. With the use of a salt crystal lamp we can adjust and neutralize electromagnetic wavelengths caused by electronic devices in natural way.
When we talk about light we mean, for the most part, the oscillation energies, or electromagnetic wavelengths, which lie in a nanometer range visible to our human eye. From the colour therapy it is well-known that the human organism needs the light waves of the rainbow spectrum (300-700 nanometers) for the health and preservation of the body. Our body's cells are supplied by light with new energy in the form of electromagnetic wavelengths. Thus the atomic structure of each individual cell vibrates in its own given order and can radiate bio photons as the cell's own electromagnetic energy field.
The specific oscillation values of salt crystal lamps depend upon crystalline colour structure in the so-called warm clay/tone range of 600-700 nanometers. For decades, the field of medicine, has been using irradiation with monochromatic light, since these colour vibration areas exert direct influence on our cell producing functions. To what extent a salt crystal lamp can be employed for natural irradiation therapy, is yet to be seen without further research. However, salt crystal lamps have been used therapeutically for years.
Today, at the beginning of the 21 st century we can hardly, if only, imagine living without many electric devices. They make it easier for us to work in the office, at home, they entertain us. However, we often do not realize that they are also a source of very harmful positive ions, the so-called electric smog. The harmful effect of electric smog, resulting in the concentration of positive ions, deteriorates the condition of air in rooms, what then negatively affects our physical and emotional state.
- dryers, vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, etc.
Scientific research has proven that the amount of ions in the environment, acceptable by the human, is ca. 1000 - 1500/cm 3 . In closed rooms where a few people work at the same time the amount of negative ions may fall to as low as 200/cm 3 . The positive effect of negative ions can be experienced on a visit a Salt Mine, by the sea, or walking right after a storm. Now you know how important it is to make sure that the harmful effect of electric smog is reduced to a minimum in the rooms where we work.
The cheapest and the simplest method of fighting against electric smog is to air rooms regularly, particularly those in which a few people stay together for some time, in which there are many electric machines, or where cigarettes are smoked. You can also use air ionizers, but these are quite expensive. To help you remove electric smog, we offer a SALT LAMP . Made of a salt crystal, it is a natural air ionizer that effectively boosts the number of negative ions in the room. The effect of air ionization by salt originates from physical and chemical properties of salt discovered many years ago. In salt lamps the ionization effect is additionally enhanced by heating the salt crystal with a bulb installed inside the lamp. As a result, the lamp improves the quality of our environment, and thus our well-being.
In addition, crystal salt helps much to cure many diseases. Bioenergotherapists and homeopaths in Western Europe have recommended crystal salt lamps for a long time to support treatment of allergies, respiratory system and blood system diseases. They are often used in the treatment of rheumatism. Due to its beautiful and rich colors, salt lamps are also used in the color therapy, i.e. chromotherapy. Their soothing light helps neurotic persons and people suffering from insomnia. The lamps have also been appreciated by Feng Shui art connoisseurs.
The curing properties of salt was proven by the fact that salt miners much more rarely suffer from respiratory system diseases. Long-term scientific research on the effect of salt mine microclimate on human health have resulted in establishing an underground sanatorium in the Wieliczka Salt Mine. This place has earned great appreciation of people suffering from respiratory system diseases. Now you can also have a 'micro salt mine' at your home.
Our lamps are made of a salt crystal excavated from the depth of 600 m, which evolved in consequence of natural geologic processes many millions years ago. The lamps are hand made, taking great care of the natural crystal beauty.
product, a natural salt lamp.
Choose a salt lamp to accommodate the size of a room for which it is intended.
The amount of negative ions emitted by salt lamps depends on their size. If you don't know which lamp to choose please use the table below.
Naturally, the larger the lamp or the more lamps in one room the larger accumulation of negative ions in it.

A Lei dos Prefeitos  foi uma lei criada na regência de Araújo Lima, durante a Balaiada (1838 - 1841).

A lei autorizava os presidentes das províncias a nomearem os prefeitos municipais, levando assim os seus "nomes de confiança" ou eles próprios ao poder. Este fato acirrou mais ainda as relações do povo com as instituições governamentais, uma vez que a população naquela época não votava.

kick bottled water - - drink tap, not bottled!
What We're Doing About It
It's stunning to imagine that in less than 50 years we've overloaded our planet with plastic bottles - in landfills, lakes, rivers, and the oceans!
By now two generations have grown up not knowing what life was like before bottled water and bottled drinks.
"Convenience" is the most frequent reason people give for why they buy bottled water. And that's a tough reason to undo - it's part of our grab-and-go culture, and we're paying for it with our environment and our pocket books.
Our Kick Bottled Water project has involved strong efforts to bring attention and challenge people to change behaviors, by:
Publishing articles in our local newspaper,
Making presentations to groups,
Creating a Pledge to Kick Bottled Water, and
Creating a Water Battle Monster to reinforce the message at public festivals and other events.
Learn More About our Efforts Here:
Article: Dollars and common Sense - Bottled Water is Money and Resources Down the Drain, October, 2017
Article: Moving Forward with a Water Wagon, June, 2017
Article: Greening Our Community with Two Green Festivals, April, 2017
Article: Getting Passionate About Sustainability, January, 2017

How Did We Get to This Plastic Place?
Plastics were first made by hand in 1800s, a labor intensive process used as a replacement for ivory.
Development of mass production assembly lines reduced production costs in the early 1900s.
WWII wartime products caused plastics manufacturing to quadruple from 1939 to 1945.
After the war plastics factories switched to consumer products, toys, containers, furniture, and more.
In 1973 DuPont patented PET plastic bottles, starting a roller coaster of plastic drink bottles.
In 1977 Perrier launched a $5 million marketing campaign in the United States for its imported water. Perrier was "all the things yuppies wanted in a lifestyle-defining product".
In 1994 PepsiCo introduced Aquafina, followed by Coca-Cola's Dasani.
By 2006 global bottled water sales were $60 billion.
Take the Pledge!
Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, Recycle!
Our Kick Bottled Water program is an important initiative in our focus to Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, and Recycle. If you're interested in being involved in activities to Kick Bottled Water, consider joining our "Super Rs" Committee, where we collaborate on how to address local challenges to the throw-aways of our society.

Summer Search featured on WBUR: "Mentors Can Help Students Rise Above Challenges, See A Future"
Summer Search senior Maria Figueroa wrote a powerful argument for the benefits of mentoring on the WBUR blog -- click here to read more about Maria's story!
Jonny is a dedicated mentor and cares deeply about cultivating positive relationships with young people.
Before coming to Summer Search, Jonny worked as a Therapeutic Mentor on Martha's Vineyard, where he spent nearly two years working with local youth in a community mental health setting. In this role, he discovered how rewarding it is to build trust and work individually with young people. He also worked as a writing tutor while an undergraduate at Skidmore College and relished the opportunity to help his peers become more confident writers.
Jonny is an avid music lover and musician. When he is not working, he is likely to be found listening to music, playing his guitar, or committing himself (a bit excessively) to baking homemade bread.
Maya comes to Summer Search as an alum with the belief that one on one mentoring can be instrumental in the development of young people and their future. She has dedicated her life to working to holistically supporting marginalized groups of young people in their growth.
Prior to joining Summer Search Maya served two years at City Year, an AmeriCorps programs that works to close the achievement gap by supporting students in Boston Public Schools through academics, behavior, and attendance interventions. Through this work she discovered her passion for mentoring as a tool to support students in achieving their goals.
Maya received her B.A. in Education and Sociology from Colgate University. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, Netflix binging, and spending time with friends.
Kathleen (Kat) believes that everyone has the right to forge their own path in life. She sees the power in telling the story of self and seeks to provide youth a chance to explore and unpack their stories in safe spaces, with mentors who believe in them.
Prior to joining Summer Search, Kat worked for the Boston-based NGO South Africa Partners as a program assistant, and with the Public Higher Education Network of Massachusetts (PHENOM). She graduated from UMass Amherst with a BA in Social Thought and Political Economy.
Outside of the office, Kathleen can be found running, biking, singing, and eating entirely too much Thai food.
Nate is motivated by the belief that everyone has a right to a life they choose for themselves.
As a Program Manager at Summer Search Boston, Nate strives to be a person in his students' lives that they want to bring both their accomplishments and defeats to with no hesitation.
Nate has been an Americorps member with Peace First and a Program Director with 4-H Camp Overlook.
Nate attained a B.A. in International Relations from Hobart and William Smith Colleges. Away from the office, he spends as much time as he can outdoors, hiking, camping, traveling, and playing sports.
Teyana believes that everyone should have opportunities and is passionate about counseling and education.
Teyana's career has been dedicated to serving Boston youth and their families. She has been a summer camp counselor, a substitute teacher, and has provided outpatient therapy services for children, teens, adults, and families.
While earning her Bachelor's degree at Bridgewater State University, Teyana held an internship position at a charter school where she observed the difference supportive adults make in the lives of students. Teyana holds a Master's degree from University of Massachusetts.
Teyana volunteers at the Boston Central Adult High School and participates on a research team focusing on the lives of emerging and young adults. Teyana enjoys spending time with her family and pets, traveling with friends, and practicing Pilates.
Martina comes to Summer Search with the mantra of "each one, teach one" guiding her.

Mlinarev San (v srbské cyrilici Млинарев Сан) je název pro motel, který se nachází v srbském městě Arilje. Motel, který vznikl podle návrhu tehdejšího jugoslávského architekta Mihajla Mitroviće, patří mezi ukázky brutalistické architektury v tehdejší Jugoslávii.

Brutalistický motel byl zbudován v letech 1974 až 1975 na břehu řeky Veliki Rzav. Vzhledem k lokalitě a druhu užití nebyl strohý železobeton na fasádě stavby vystaven přímo, ale byl obložen v interiéru dřevem a cihlou. Jednotlivé části stavby byly umístěny tak, aby nevystupovaly nápadně nad terén, ale byly zasazeny do svahu nad řekou. Původní myšlenku na výstavbu hotelu právě ve městě Arilje získal Mitrović díky podnětu od občana. Tuto stavbu také považoval za chloubu své kariéry.

The current state of Minnesotan day cares is anything but child's play.
And, when child care is one of the top issues facing Minnesota's labor force, the industry's decline in recent years could mean rough sledding for the economy if a solution isn't reached effectively and expediently.
As executive director of the Greater Minnesota Partnership, Dan Dorman said he's looking to rehabilitate the child care industry through forming a coalition of towns, nonprofits and lawmakers, whether that's on the road or in the pillared halls of the Capitol in St. Paul.
It's a sobering picture, Dorman said, evidenced by a 27 percent drop in providers statewide between 2006 and 2015, all while nearly 74 percent of families with children below the age of 6 have both parents in the workforce.
"In the last couple years, more and more of our members have been saying, 'Child care is increasingly an issue,'" said Dorman, who noted child care factors as an important part of economic development efforts across rural Minnesota by the partnership. "We've always looked at child care as part of economic development. That's almost become our top issue."
And while it's a statewide issue, he added, Greater Minnesota is bearing the brunt as the child care industry hemorrhages providers at a frightening rate. The Twin Cities metro, by virtue of its densely populated areas, can address the problem through the establishment of centers and other related providers not tied to employment.
Greater Minnesota? It's the inverse, Dorman said, where a shrinking pool of private providers are supporting thousands and thousands of families. It's estimated the child care industry has to grow by no less than 35 percent to overcome the shortfall, according to the Center for Rural Policy and Development.
"We're trying to get the message out, see if we can get some support under it," Dorman said of child care as a topical matter in the state Legislature. "We're optimistic. The Senate has taken a strong position and I suspect the House will do the same thing."
• SF 538/HF 423, which would create a child care capital grant program. This bill would authorize the state to provide grants to child care providers, local governments and regional economic development organizations to cover up to 50 percent of costs to build, upgrade or expand child care facilities. That's all the more important, Dorman noted, when one considers the considerable costs of building and maintaining these highly regulated facilities. For example, it costs between $200,000 to $450,000 to start up a 52-slot center in Greater Minnesota, and that doesn't include buying the property. The bill asks for an allocation of $10 million for these purposes.
• SF 537/HF 422, which would establish a child care business and training fund. This bill would provide funding to Minnesota Initiative Foundations for planning, coordination, training and education to expand child care. The bill stipulates initiatives to strengthen these providers in a business sense to ensure their viability and longevity. This piece of legislation is seeking an allocation of $3 million for these purposes.
• Fostering high-quality child and sustainable business practices via grants and low-interest loans for training and capacity expansion, improvements to the regulation inspection process, as well as business development training and support.
• Creating markets where families have access to high-quality and affordable child care. Enhancements to the state's child care tax credit program is noted as a possible avenue to increase the supply of both center-based and home-based child care options.
• Building a stable child care provider workforce. This includes business support for providers, financial incentives—including boosting wages—to encourage workforce applications and retention, as well as incentive benefits for working families.
How does the state lose 27 percent of its providers in roughly a decade? Dorman said overregulation by state authorities is the most cited reason—though, he noted, that's only one part of the larger issues.
For day care providers, to remain licensed (and avoid damning infractions on their records) they have to follow a specific, demanding and ever-changing list of regulations, Dorman said. It could be the qualifications of the staff, he added, all the way down to using disposable paper cups over plastic cups, or not stacking laundry on a dryer.
Furthermore, Dorman pointed to what he termed a "cultural problem" among regulatory agencies, including the Minnesota Department of Health and Human Services, which he said fell into the practice of shutting down and running day care providers out of business for minor infractions. Instead of their historically punitive bent, Dorman said agencies should work proactively and cooperatively with providers.
Dorman added many day cares can't provide a realistic work environment for employees—who, beyond meeting a host of strict standards as caretakers, often come into the worst starting job for a four-year college degree: $12 per hour and no benefits. Finding viable candidates who want to care for children as a career, let alone can afford to, is a monumental task for day cares, Dorman added.
There's also the divide between Greater Minnesota and the Twin Cities, Dorman said. While lawmakers based in the metro area have good intentions, he said they often don't understand particular issues facing families in rural areas, or how to craft bills to address child care shortages in small towns over urban centers.
Dorman said rural Minnesotans—who come from disparate smaller communities with more autonomy and individual identities, compared to a more united metro area—have been less likely to organize efforts to address these shortfalls. Beyond child care, he added, the Greater Minnesota Partnership was created to give rural Minnesotans a representative voice.
Dorman pointed to a lack of funding for child care programs—which the two bills on the docket hope to address in part. While the state has made it abundantly clear it has high (and some cases almost unreachable) standards of quality, Dorman said it now has to invest in the industry in a way that benefits the economy as a whole.

Q: Extends Runtimeexception String message with different values I want to create my own Exception which extends Runtimeexception. I the constructor I want it to print out different Strings, depending on the first parameter. The parameter is an integer and if its for example over 4 it should say "over" and under it should say "under". But I cannot do it with if and else because super has to be the first argument. Can anyone help?

A: You can call static methods in the constructor and pass their return value to the super class constructor:
public class MyException extends RuntimeException {

    MyException(int v){
        super(chooseMessage(v));
    }
    private static String chooseMessage(int v){
        return v > 4 ? "over" : v < 4 ? "under" : "4";
    }
}

You also might be able to just use some ternary operators if your choice logic is simple enough:
    MyException(int v){
        super(v > 4 ? "over" : v < 4 ? "under" : "4");
    }

Another way is to store your messages in an array (which might be better if you have a distinct message for each number):
    private static final String[] MESSAGES = { "a", "b", "c", "under", "4", "over" };

    MyException(int v){
        super(MESSAGES[v]);
    }

Most of us are under the impression that multitasking is an important skill to have if you want to be successful. That if you want to get promoted or run a successful business, you need to be able to juggle several tasks at once and fit a crazy amount of work into one day. There's a different school of thought though that says that multitasking won't make you more productive. Some people believe that multitasking is actually inefficient and can even hurt your brain!
I used to pride myself on my ability to multitask. I thought I was superwoman for juggling ten different tasks at once. When I worked in an office, I would happily generate a file, write an email, and chat to a colleague all at the same time. But then I got burnt out and resentful that I had to cram so much into my day.
I've realized that this was unproductive. And sometimes it wasn't even really multitasking. It was task switching. I'm now aware that there are many negative effects of multitasking such as causing you to lose time, become distracted, and make mistakes.
When we say multitasking, a lot of the time we really mean task switching.
Multitasking means doing multiple tasks at the same time. Like texting while you're watching TV or talking on the phone while driving.
Task switching is when you quickly move from one task to another without necessarily finishing any of them. And therein lies the problem. We're not finishing a lot of the tasks, so that means that we're going to have to go back to them later on.
Multitasking is an inefficient use of time because you lose time when you switch from one task to another. You waste time trying to find your place again and pick up where you left off. Sometimes you repeat steps you've already done or miss things that you thought you had already done.
Focusing on one task until it's finished will save you time in the long run.
When you switch from one task to another without completing them, you don't automatically stop thinking about the previous task. It's still in the back of your mind because you know you need to go back and finish it. You're still thinking about what's left to do, so your current task isn't getting your full attention.
If you're multitasking all day long, you're probably thinking about more than just the last task as well. How can you expect to do an excellent job on your most important tasks if you're also thinking about five other tasks you need to get back to?
Even just glancing at your notifications is not good. Knowing that you have an unread email distracts you and makes you start thinking about what the email could be about.
Focusing on one task will allow you to put all your energy and brainpower into your most important task.
When your mind is not focused on the task at hand, you are more likely to make a mistake. Mistakes can be time-consuming and costly to fix. They might also be remembered when it comes to promotion time or attracting repeat clients.
Focusing on one task will reduce the number of mistakes you make and keep your boss or clients happy.
Our brains were not made for multitasking; they can only focus on one thing at a time. Switching back and forth between tasks leads to lower performance because our brains can't successfully do two things at the same time.
There have been many scientific studies that have concluded that multitasking isn't good for you.
Stanford University professor Clifford Nass found that heavy multitaskers were actually worse at multitasking than light multitaskers. They struggled to filter information and ignore irrelevant information, and they had poor memory management.
Possibly even more worrying is a study carried out by the University of London that found that multitasking lowers your IQ and has the same effects as if you smoked marijuana or missed a night's sleep!
I know how awful I feel when I miss a night's sleep, so I'd rather not replicate that feeling by multitasking! My memory is bad enough as it is!
One of my goals is to become more productive, and I've come to the conclusion that the first step I need to take is to stop multitasking. Even while writing this post, I found myself reaching for my phone to check my messages more times than I could count. Then I had to find my place again and remember what I was trying to say.
From now on, I will try to focus on completing one task at a time and giving that task my full attention so that I can do it to the best of my ability. I believe that focusing on one task at a time will allow me to do better quality work in less time.
In fact, I think it's going to make me a happier person. I think it will make me less tired, less resentful, and more alert. Doesn't that sound good?! Who's with me?
If you want to make a start on becoming more productive, check out my productivity board on Pinterest!
Are you a big multitasker? Do you think it makes you more productive? Let's chat about it in the comments!
I'm a huge multitasker, and technology doesn't make it any easier because like you said, I'm constantly reaching for my phone. Very interesting research on this topic, thanks for sharing!
Glad I'm not the only one! Thanks, Stephanie!
YES! So true. Even knowing the harms of task switching, I still get so tempted by it. When I really need to concentrate, I have to put my phone out of reach and use an app to block my social media!
I'm addicted to my phone. It's terrible! I need to start putting it out of reach as well. Thanks, Jen!

It's well seasoned. The sage comes through and it's got a wonderful savoury flavour to it. It's just a really very, very good pie!
The flavours are very well rounded.
We offer a wide range of products for a small bakery but there will always be some outstanding specialities for which we will be renowned. As our style is more rustic and our taste mixes the continental with classic Yorkshire specialities, we hope there is something for everyone.
For Yorkshire purists we have our Yorkshire Curd tarts. Made to Grandma Ives' original recipe with local curds, butter, currants, eggs, cream, sugar and freshly ground nutmeg. Simply delicious served with creme fraiche.
Our Yorkshire Rascals with their cheeky faces are made with the finest vine fruits and are wonderful with a knob of butter and a cup of Yorkshire tea.
Our breads are often named after nearby villages like our Brompton, Crakehall and Richmondshire Loaves , not forgetting our bestseller the Lancer loaf. Made with wholemeal and rye flour and with a linseed crust, this is named after one of our local regiments based at Catterick.
If its a sweet tooth you have, you will not be disappointed either. Our runaway bestseller is our Almond Frangipane. A hand rolled all butter pastry base filled with a layer of fresh fruit, a layer of ground almond frangipane and then finished with more fruits and flaked almonds. We make these to all sizes from individual tarts to those serving 14 portions, and all manner of flavours, from mixed red summer fruits, gooseberry, apple, apricot, black cherry or pear and chocolate.
Our Chocolate Brownies are legendary. Made with butter and Belgian chocolate ours are silky smooth and available singly or as a 'Brownie cake', enough for 6 servings, swirled with white chocolate and wrapped with a bow, the perfect present for a chocolate lover.
Not forgetting our Italian inspired soft Amaretti. Made with egg whites, ground almonds and icing sugar these are constantly changing flavour according to the season, from orange and lemon, to maple and pecan or cranberry and orange and more besides….

It is important to know the rules and regulations.
Advertisement: Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity
FA RULES & REGULATIONS
Rules and regulations are used to govern all aspects of the game in London.
We all want to make sure football is played fairly and safely, right? That's why, not matter what your role in football is, it's important you're up-to-date on all the latest rules and regulations of the game. By ensuring you (and others around you) are familiar with the latest in the Laws of the Game, Discipline and more you'll be helping to make football in London as fair, safe and inclusive as it can be.
Entering Matches on the Whole Game System
Essential Information for Clubs Step 5 & Below
Whole Game System Discipline Guide
How can I use the Whole Game System to process discipline?
What's new in the 2018-19 Discipline Handbook?
Can I appeal a Referee's decision?
For claims of wrongful dismissal or mistaken identity, we have strict time limits in which you can appeal a Referee's decision. Claims received late will not be considered.
In all cases the appeal fee, which must be submitted with details of your appeal is £50 (Steps 5 - 7). For Clubs outside the National League System and Youth the fee is £30.
You can make a claim of wrongful dismissal or mistaken identity via the Whole Game System.
See the video below for further information on making a claim of wrongful dismissal:
How can I add a Player's Date of Birth and Home Address on the Whole Game System?
Ensuring a Player's date of birth and home address is on the Whole Game System is incredibly important. It is important because any discipline issues such as cautions and other offences can't be resolved until a Player's Football Association Number (FAN) has this information associated with it.
For example, you can pay for a Player's Yellow Card however if the Player's FAN does not include a date of birth and home address that Yellow Card remains as outstanding and will incur a late fee. This can lead to your Team becoming suspended due to outstanding debts.
Please remember, it is the responsibility of Club's to ensure all Player information is provided and not the London FA.
The process of this is very simple and is typically done by Club Secretaries.
Step 1) Log into the Whole Game System
Step 2) Select your Club Role tab at the top of the page
Step 3) Select the 'Player Registration' tab on the left hand side of the page. This tab is between 'Safeguarding' and 'Discipline'
Step 4) Find the Player through the search feature which can be found to the centre of the page
Step 5) Click on the Player's name
Step 6) You will then see the option to 'edit details' under the Player's photo (or photo icon) - click 'edit details'
Step 7) You will then see the option to input the Player's date of birth
Step 8) To add the Player's home address, you will need to scroll further down the page to 'Contact Details' where you will be able to input the Player's home address
Step 9) At the bottom of the page you will see the message 'By continuing, you are confirming that any individuals' data you are providing, or updating, is correct to the best of your knowledge, and that these individuals have given you permission to provide/update their details.' - beneath this message, you will see the option to 'Save Changes'
The Players date of birth and home address will now have been updated!
A Player or Coach or Club Official at my Club has been suspended for 'Safeguarding Reasons', how can I find out more information?
To discuss a suspension for Safeguarding Reasons, please contact our Safeguarding Team:
Nikeeta Patel, Designated Safeguarding Officer (phone: 07525237348, email: nikeeta.patel@londonfa.com)
Yasmin Dyer, Designated Safeguarding Officer (phone: 07720591755, email: yasmin.dyer@londonfa.com)

How can I pay for Yellow and Red Cards?
If you are the Club Secretary or another Club Official, you can pay for Yellow and Red Cards and other Cases via the Whole Game System. To access the Whole Game System, click here.
Can I pay for Discipline Invoices over the phone?
The most efficient way to pay a Discipline Invoice is via the Whole Game System. The Team at London FA is relatively small and during busy hours we may not be able to take your call. Watch the video below for guidance on how you can pay:
How can I add Suspension Matches?
In order for suspensions to be resolved, your club must add the Suspension Matches (the matches the player missed due to suspension) via the Whole Game System. The process is very simple. If you do not do this, your player will remain suspended.

What does 'Sine Die' mean?
Sine die is suspension from all football. This can be for non-payment of fines or a serious case of misconduct.
What is the best way to check number of cards a player has received?
What is an 'Administration Fee'?
The Administration Fee is the charge for administering all offences. The Administration Fee for non-caution offences (send offs and all misconduct cases) has been amended to £15 to account for the additional administration of these cases. The Administration Fee for caution offences remains at £10.
What is a Misconduct Case?
A Misconduct Case is for any incident that is beyond standard match-day discipline (Yellow/Red Card).

Family Law and Immigration Law
in Seattle, Washington
Meet Katrina S. Zafiro
Hi, I'm Katrina Zafiro. I was born and raised in the Philippines until my family immigrated to California in the early 1990s. While living in the Bay Area, I worked as an educator for the Oak Grove School District, the Eastside High School Union School District and the University of California-Santa Cruz. I worked with Sony as a linguist helping to develop voice recognition software. I also worked as a volunteer and educator for several nonprofit organizations, including Catholic Charities and the Indo-Chinese Resettlement and Community Center where I worked with refugees and immigrants. These roles helped me realize that I wanted to help people and make a positive difference in their futures.
When I visited Seattle, I immediately fell in love with the city's vibrancy, enthusiasm, and diverse multicultural population. I already knew that I wanted to be an attorney dedicated to family and immigration law, so I enrolled in the University of Washington School of Law.
While in law school, I worked as a legal intern in the Family Law Unit of Columbia Legal Services and the Self-Help Plus Program of the King County Bar Association. I also volunteered for the Northwest Justice Project and the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project.
Prior to starting my own firm, I worked for two prominent law firms in the Puget Sound Area in the areas of complex business litigation and class action lawsuits. Then—less than two years after earning my law degree from the University of Washington School of Law—I realized a dream by opening my own practice dedicated exclusively to immigration and family law.
Being a sole practitioner, I enjoy the rare opportunity to get to know my clients and meet their needs.
As an immigrant, I am deeply committed to helping immigrants navigate the complex U.S. legal system. My dedication to family law has guided me to serve as a volunteer teacher on divorce law at the King County Courthouse.
Why Am I the Best Attorney for Your Case? It's Simple:
From the moment you hire me as your attorney, I will provide you my hands-on involvement in seeing your case from start to finish and provide you with regular updates on your case. As your family or immigration law attorney, you can expect three things from me: accessibility, personal attention to your case, and an approach based on honesty and integrity.
Before and after putting in long hours at the office, I enjoy mastering my skills in vegan cooking, public speaking, watercolor painting, and personal training. I also volunteer as a Tagalog, Visayan, and Ilocano interpreter, and serve on the boards of nonprofit organizations.

Father Thomas R. Amarillas, MM
Ordained: June 8, 1968
Died: June 1, 2004
Father Thomas Amarillas died in a car accident in the Peten, Guatemala on June 1, 2004. He was 64 years old and a Maryknoll priest for 35 years.
Thomas Robert Amarillas was born on July 30, 1939 in Tucson, Arizona, son of Robert and Rosa Amarillas. He has two brothers and one sister. His primary education took place in the Carrillo public schools; and he spent two years at Safford Junior High and two years at Tucson High School and graduated from Salpointe Catholic High School in June 1959. He entered Maryknoll College, Glen Ellyn, Illinois, on September 4, 1959, and received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy in June 1963. He was ordained a priest at Maryknoll Seminary in Ossining, New York on June 8, 1968.
After ordination, Father Amarillas was assigned to the Maryknoll Central America Mission Region. After language and cultural studies at the Maryknoll Language School in Cochabamba, Bolivia, he became the Assistant Pastor of Parroquia La Navidad in Santa Ana, El Salvador. In the summer of 1970 he received a Certificate for studies in cultural anthropology at the University of San Carlos. In 1972 he received a Certificate for three months study in linguistic studies at the Universidad del Valle and in 1973 he received a Certificate for a course in linguistics at CELAM Center in Manizales, Colombia.
Father Amarillas participated in the Maryknoll Mission Renewal Program at Maryknoll, New York, in the Spring of 1979; followed by a summer course at the Mexican-American Cultural Center (MACC) in San Antonio, Texas. This course of studies concentrated on the documents of Vatican Council II, the Medellin Conference, Puebla Conference, and cultural awareness with special attention given to the Mexican American scene and history.
On September 1, 1979 Father Amarillas began a three-year assignment to the Development House in Los Angeles to assist in vocation recruitment. He was reassigned to the Central America Mission Region on October 1, 1982 and appointed Pastor of the Church in Choloma, Diocese of San Pedro Sula, Honduras. In 1984, he participated in a Pastoral Counseling course at Mount St. Mary's College, Los Angeles, California.
On June 18, 1990, Father Amarillas was recalled to the United States Region and assigned to the Vocation Office for a three-year term as a Vocation Minister in the Los Angeles Development House. During that term he took summer courses in Pastoral Counseling and participated in Maryknoll's Spiritual Renewal Program.
Father Amarillas was assigned once again to the Central American Mission Region effective December 1, 1992. For many years, he worked in El Salvador as a marriage counselor with the family pastoral department in the Archdiocese of San Salvador. In 1999, Father Amarillas began working in the Peten. People who worked with him knew him as a likable, charismatic man and one who gave a high priority to friendship. He was adaptable to any situation, even if trying. He was also a lover of all kinds of animals and plants. He always talked lovingly of his family back in Arizona and he helped many poor families rebuild their ramshackle homes after a hurricane swept through the Peten area three years ago.
On June 2, 2004, hundreds of people spilled out into the street and packed the Church for Mass for Father Amarillas in San Luis Peten celebrated by his bishop Oscar Julio Vian and members of the Peten vicariate clergy. Father William Mullan, MM crossed two swollen, dangerous rivers to get back from a Kekchi village visit and was present for the farewell. His body was then transferred to Guatemala City and from there was sent to Tucson, Arizona for burial. On June 7, 2004 Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated at St. Augustine's Cathedral in Tucson. Father William Donnelly, MM was Principal Celebrant and Father Donnelly and Father John Ruessmann, MM spoke about Father Amarillas, as well as retired Bishop Francis Quinn of Tucson. Bishop Quinn conducted the graveside service as Father Amarillas was buried in Tucson.

Q: Event Control with KeyPress 'Tab' So I have several input forms that are disabled until they are filled out in sequence because of data calls to the server based on their selections. I have a custom dropdown that allows me to do a typeahead and click the item I want. When I click the item, the field unlocks with a combination of onblur and onchange events that take place for my data model. The issue that comes into play for me is I want the user to be able to tab. But when I hit tab, the onblur and onchange haven't disabled the field so it skips several fields that it shouldn't. Is there any suggestions on preventing a tab keypress skipping the disabled element? Can I tab and focus on a disabled element?

A: That is not possible, as the docs say:

A form control is disabled if its disabled attribute is set, or if it is a descendant of a fieldset element whose disabled attribute is set and is not a descendant of that fieldset element's first legend element child, if any.
A form control that is disabled must prevent any click events that are queued on the user interaction task source from being dispatched on the element.

So you can not click on those elements, and you can not focus element, that can not be clicked.
https://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html#concept-fe-disabled
So the only option if you need to allow focusing of those elements is not to use disabled attribute at all. You could use .disabled class instead and bind on key events to suppress editing of the value.

A: Assuming you are willing to temporarily enable the disabled element (thus making it writable), this can be done by checking whether the next element has the disabled attribute with hasAttribute(). If it does, you can change this attribute to false before the keydown returns true, and thus the keyup will tab to the disabled element.
Additionally, you can set a new attribute wasDisabled, which you can then check against with $(this)[0]. If the element has this class, you can re-disable the element once you tab off it again.
This can be seen in the following jQuery example:

$('input').on('keydown', function(e) {
  if (e.keyCode == 9) {
    if ($(this).next()[0].hasAttribute('disabled')) {
      $(this).next().attr('disabled', false);
      $(this).next().attr('wasdisabled', true);
    }
    if ($(this)[0].hasAttribute('wasdisabled')) {
      $(this).attr('disabled', true);
    }
  }
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<input>
<input disabled>
<input>

Hope this helps! :)

A: I ended up switching it to a readonly property. The readonly allowed me to tab to it and focus on it while not being able to type in it until the the blur and change completed.

Q: Groovy ArrayList getting confused for a String I am seeing some confusing behavior from this code.
def fileArrayMeta  = newFile.readLines()
def file3 = fileArrayMeta.collect{ line -> line.split("\\s+") }
println file3[0]
println file3[0].getClass()

The expected result of this operation should be.
=> [, NOTE, *ENTRY, STATEMENT, *.]
=> class java.util.ArrayList

The actual result of this operation is.
=> [, NOTE, *ENTRY, STATEMENT, *.]
=> class [Ljava.lang.String;

Why is this happening?
println file3[0].removeAll("", null)

Exception in thread "main" groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: [Ljava.lang.String;.removeAll() is applicable for argument types:
(java.lang.String, null) values: [, null]
I assume this should work too, why not?
def clean4 = clean3.each{it.collect{ it != "" && it != null }}
    println clean4[0]

A: The split method on java.lang.String returns an array, not an ArrayList. You could use the method tokenize instead (although it doesn't take a regex that's not a problem for the simple case of splitting on whitespace), or convert the array to a list after splitting, using Arrays.asList or as List.
In Groovy split and tokenize both have defaults assuming whitespace as a delimiter, so the regex is not required, either line.split() as List or line.tokenize() is enough. Tabs and spaces both get handled and repetitions work similarly:
groovy:000> s = '  a\tb   c d '
===>   a        b   c d
groovy:000> s.tokenize()
===> [a, b, c, d]
groovy:000> s.split() as List
===> [a, b, c, d]

The output [Ljava.lang.String is a notation telling you you have an array of Strings. You can check if something is an array by calling isArray() on the class:
file3[0].class.isArray()

The MissingMethodException is saying you are calling removeAll on an array. You can check the methods available on an object:
groovy:000> a = s.split()
===> [a, b, c, d]
groovy:000> a.class.isArray()
===> true
groovy:000> a.class.methods
===> [public final void java.lang.Object.wait(long,int) throws java.lang.Interru
ptedException, public final native void java.lang.Object.wait(long) throws java.
lang.InterruptedException, public final void java.lang.Object.wait() throws java
.lang.InterruptedException, public boolean java.lang.Object.equals(java.lang.Obj
ect), public java.lang.String java.lang.Object.toString(), public native int jav
a.lang.Object.hashCode(), public final native java.lang.Class java.lang.Object.g
etClass(), public final native void java.lang.Object.notify(), public final nati
ve void java.lang.Object.notifyAll()]
groovy:000> a.class.methods*.toString().grep {it.contains('removeAll')}
===> []

And what do you expect the last example to do? Because the call to collect will return a list of booleans:
groovy> stuff=['asdf', 'zxcv', 'qwerty', '', 'zzz']
groovy> stuff.collect { it != '' && it != null }

Result: [true, true, true, false, true]

The collect method makes a transformed copy of the collection it's called on. But each doesn't return the modified collection, it returns the original unmodified one, here's an example:
groovy> def mylist = ['asdf', 'zxcv', 'qwerty']
groovy> def foo = mylist.each {it.toUpperCase()}
groovy> foo

Result: [asdf, zxcv, qwerty]

Here the closure in the each has no effect on the contents of mylist or on foo, unlike if you used collect or mylist*.toUpperCase(), which returns the collection of entries created by executing the closure on each element of mylist.
It looks like you are confused about what collect does, and you're trying to use it to filter (which doesn't work). Here's an example of removing empty strings from a list of lists of strings:
groovy> def mylist = [['a', 'b', ''], ['', 'c', 'd'], ['e', '', 'f']]
groovy> println mylist.collect {it.findAll()}

[[a, b], [c, d], [e, f]]

The it that findAll is called on is a list of strings.

A: you can also use line.split( /\s+/ ) as List
