DOCUMENT: A major disturbance because of the Name-worshipping doctrine... A letter to hierarchs of the Holy Orthodox Church in North America (Synod of Boston)
August 24/ September 6, 2012
Τ St. Kosmas of Aetolia
Most Rev. Ephraim, Metropolitan of Boston; Most Rev. Makarios, Metropolitan of Toronto; Rt. Rev. Demetrius, Bishop of Carlisle; Rt. Rev. Gregory, Bishop of Concord:
Masters: Bless.
You all know our Church, these last ten months (or thereabouts), has been in the throes of a major disturbance because of the Name-worshipping doctrine. Your effort to quell the disturbance with your decision that the issue should not be discussed because it is controversial, obviously, has not been efficacious. In the final analysis, we are not surprised because no compromise or fine-line-walking in doctrinal matters can ever be successful.
In this vein, then, the intimation in last Saturday's clergy meeting that you may consider issuing a statement supporting St. Tikhon's Nativity Encyclical as a means to bring peace is nothing other than another "compromise," a vain attempt to bring together two irreconcilable teachings, Orthodoxy and Name-worshipping, because of the history how that document is understood by the Orthodox and manipulated by the Name-worshipping advocates.
To illustrate this point, it is as if, in the midst of the Arian heresy, the synod of bishops said we fully support and uphold everything that the Holy Gospels and Prophecies say concerning Jesus Christ. That is a perfectly sound Orthodox position, which, nonetheless, the Arians would also accept and put their names to, only to manipulate the Sacred Scriptures to suit their doctrine.
Then, it has been said that the Orthodox are responsible for the current turmoil, not those who introduced Name-worshipping doctrine into our Church in the first place. That is the same pitiful position taken by the Ecumenists who brought the Gregorian calendar into the Church: They who imposed the calendar change are not responsible for the division and upheaval; it is the Orthodox who oppose the innovation who are making "a big deal out of nothing" and who are the cause of all the tumult!
Our holy Fathers have taught us through the ages, and you, yourselves, have impressed on us, that there can be no compromise in matters of Faith. We concur with our whole heart and soul.
Furthermore, we have reached this point of being on the brink of espousing a false teaching as the inevitable spiritual result of Metropolitan Ephraim's seriously flawed governance of both the Metropolis of Boston and the Holy Synod. Specifically, His Eminence Ephraim has been centrally involved in three major divisions in our Church in the last 6 years: the Seattle upheaval; the departure of clergy and parishes in Portland and Toronto; and the present imposition of the Name-worshipping heresy. More so, he has presided over a scandalous cover up of Fr. Panteleimon that has given rise to serious doubts about the very integrity of both our confession of Faith and our canonicity and the underlying motivation of our separation from the Russian Church Abroad.
Therefore, we, the undersigned clergy, assert that these matters require:
(1) that there be issued an immediate, unequivocal, unconditional, public, dated declaration bearing the actual signature of each Orthodox hierarch (not just his name) on our Holy Synod, which declaration pronounces the following:
Out of love for our Master, God, and Savior, Jesus Christ, and in loving reassurance of His Church, the People of God under our archpastoral care, and to dispel—indeed, utterly banish—any and all concerns, misgivings, misconceptions, and misperceptions, I [or we if more than one sign], the undersigned hierarch[s] of the Holy Synod of The Holy Orthodox Church in North America do declare that I [we] fully and unconditionally and without any reservation accept all the Ecumenical and local Councils and Synods and all their acts and decisions and proclamations accepted by the Orthodox Church Universal, including all the Patriarchal and Synodal decisions and pronouncements regarding the Name-worshipping heresy and its adherents and supporters.
(2) that His Eminence Ephraim be retired as Metropolitan of Boston and President of our Holy Synod and that His Grace, Demetrius, be installed as Metropolitan of Boston and President of our Holy Synod.
These matters are so urgent and of such high importance that they cannot wait until your scheduled Synod meeting some three or so weeks from now. We are awaiting the public distribution and pronouncement of this declaration and these decisions on or before the last day of this present ecclesiastical year one week from today. As of then, the above decisions regarding the Metropolitan of Boston and the President of the Holy Synod having been made, we will commemorate that or those hierarch(s) whose signature(s) appear(s) affixed to this declaration.
In the love of our God and Savior, Christ Jesus,
Fr. Jacob Wojcik

Analysis: Nashville faces pivotal moment with mayor race, tension with state
Sen. Mark Norris has ties to couple killed in Gatlinburg fire
Jake Lowary, and Yolanda Jones
NASHVILLE — Sen. Mark Norris was in his office in the basement of the Capitol in Nashville when he learned his close friend, Jim Summers, had just delivered grim news he was dreading: Jon Summers died in the Gatlinburg wildfires.
Jon Summers and his wife, Janet, were confirmed dead after trying to flee the blazing inferno they and their three sons were caught in earlier this week in Gatlinburg. The Summerses separated, and their three sons were rescued but burned.
Norris, the state Senate majority leader, said he was trying to get as many updates from the scene as he could throughout the week, but perhaps none more important than the one about his friend's family.
"The fires have taken a heavy toll on many Tennesseans. The Summers Family of Memphis is no exception. Our hearts go out to them. Our prayers are for them all and the families affected by this great tragedy," Norris said in a text message to The Tennessean.
"It's a tragedy which transcends the Grand Divisions. A loss for one is a loss for all," Norris wrote.
RELATED: Brother confirms Memphis couple perished in fire
Jon and Janet Summers, both 61, and their three sons were in Gatlinburg for a birthday celebration, and had been staying at the Chalet Village a little west of the city's popular downtown area. But when the wildfires spread, the family tried to flee the area by car. However, friends said, their path was blocked by debris. They left the car and tried to flee on foot but became separated.
The sons — Branson, 23, and Jared and Wesley, who turned 22 on Wednesday — were rescued and taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Jared Summers was released from the hospital Thursday. Brandon and Wesley are expected to be released by the end of next week or the following Monday, Dr. Blair Summitt said Friday.
No one had seen or heard from Jon and Janet Summers since that attempted escape, and friends and family had hoped for good news but feared the worst.
RELATED: Gatliburg fires death toll now 13
Norris praised the work of all those involved, including Vanderbilt, first responders, Good Samaritans and volunteers. He stood by Sen. Doug Overbey on Thursday afternoon, who pledged to seek funding to aid in recovery and restoration in the next state budget.
"And we should all give thanks to God for giving light despite the darkness," Norris wrote.

The Phenomenology of Pain is the first book-length investigation of its topic to appear in English. Groundbreaking, systematic, and illuminating, it opens a dialogue between phenomenology and the sciences to argue that science alone cannot clarify the nature of pain experience without incorporating a phenomenological approach.
In Reading for Health: Medical Narratives and the Nineteenth-Century Novel, Erika Wright argues that the emphasis in Victorian Studies on disease as the primary source of narrative conflict that must be resolved has obscured the complex reading practices that emerge around the concept of health.
Malaria is an infectious disease like no other: it is a dynamic force of nature and Africa's most deadly and debilitating malady. James C. McCann tells the story of malaria in human, narrative terms and explains the history and ecology of the disease through the science of landscape change. All malaria is local.

Reading Victorian Deafness is the first book to address the crucial role that deaf people, and their unique language of signs, played in Victorian culture.
If nineteenth-century Britain witnessed the rise of medical professionalism, it also witnessed rampant quackery. It is tempting to categorize historical practices as either orthodox or quack, but what did these terms really signify in medical and public circles at the time? How did they develop and evolve? What do they tell us about actual medical practices?
Through the ages, rabies has exemplified the danger of diseases that transfer from wild animals to humans and their domestic stock. In South Africa, rabies has been on the rise since the latter part of the twentieth century despite the availability of postexposure vaccines and regular inoculation campaigns for dogs. In Mad Dogs and Meerkats: A History of Resurgent Rabies in Southern Africa, Karen Brown links the increase of rabies to the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
During the early 1990s, the ability of dangerous diseases to pass between animals and humans was brought once more to the public consciousness. These concerns continue to raise questions about how livestock diseases have been managed over time and in different social, economic, and political circumstances.
Madness in Buenos Aires examines the interactions between psychiatrists, patients and their families, and the national state in modern Argentina. This book offers a fresh interpretation of the Argentine state's relationship to modernity and social change during the twentieth century, while also examining the often contentious place of psychiatry in modern Argentina.
Cleansing the City: Sanitary Geographies in Victorian London explores not only the challenges faced by reformers as they strove to clean up an increasingly filthy city but the resistance to their efforts. Beginning in the 1830s, reform-minded citizens, under the banner of sanitary improvement, plunged into London's dark and dirty spaces and returned with the material they needed to promote public health legislation and magnificent projects of sanitary engineering.
This history of the African AIDS epidemic is a much-needed, accessibly written historical account of the most serious epidemiological catastrophe of modern times. The African AIDS Epidemic: A History answers President Thabo Mbeki's provocative question as to why Africa has suffered this terrible epidemic. While Mbeki attributed the causes to poverty and exploitation, others have looked to distinctive sexual systems practiced in African cultures and communities.

Chapter 178 – Blocked
Max immediately became suspicious when he saw the field behind them, having no signs of burns on its surface.
When Max first encountered Smiling Death, it was the searing heat of the flame that gave away his position.
Feeling the sudden change of temperature, Max was then able to react instantly, dodging back to create space between them.
Now from the looks of things, it seemed like it was only some sort of trick, possibly an illusion that could deceive his senses.
However, Max currently had no way of confirming it. If there was really an illusion applied to the weapon, Max could only take a risk to find out.
If the illusion is powerful enough to play with his senses, then there's nothing he could do to block it.
But Max also knows that he wasn't wrong this time. Adding up every clue he gathered, this illusion should only be limited to the space around the weapon.
This can be proven by the disappearance of the scorching surface beneath Smiling Death once he moved past and left the area.
When Max recalled the initial attack earlier, the possibility of the weapon having an illusion around it became more and more believable.
A moment ago, when Max was only curiously looking around the strange landscape, what revealed the unexpected ambush was the sudden arrival of intense heat.
It was a failure of an ambush. The usual silent and sneaky attack were replaced by what felt like a massive fireball being thrown at him.
Max would be a fool not to notice such an attack. Up to this, Max could say that attempting to catch someone off guard and using a striking, bold weapon like that doesn't make a good combination.
This also solidified his idea that the illusion was on the weapon, not on the man.
Max knew this because if it were the man who has the illusion, or having an illusion related skill, then he would have held his skill back so as to not expose himself and waited to close the distance on him before using it.
Since Smiling Death did not do it like that, Max could only assume that Smiling Death had no control of the illusion, causing him to think that the illusion was on the weapon, not on the individual.
"Looks like I'll have to test it."
Max brightened up as soon as his mind formed a great plan.
Running through the lifeless forest, one could only see dying trees and barren drylands. Life doesn't seem to be welcomed here with the absence of vitality in the surroundings.
Contrary to the towering mountain that Max arrived at, this place didn't have the abundance of creatures, and the woods also lacked spirit, giving off a dark, bleak atmosphere.
But for Max, this forest has everything he needs. Reflecting on his eyes was a large trunk blocking his way, if Max didn't move aside, he would be hit in the next second.
Smiling Death's smile turned wider, thinking that this was his chance to catch up to Max. In front of him was a clump of trees, which would make it harder for his target to escape.
Luckily for Smiling Death, the direction Max was running towards was where he originally planned to go, so no time will be wasted in this unending chase.
Just as he got closer, Smiling Death was surprised to see Max collecting dead woods from the nearby trees he passes through.
But he quickly forgot about it since sticks would cause no harm to him. This futile action would not change anything. What can a mere branch do against him?
Max collected more and more woods, breaking them off from the fragile trees. He disregarded the small and overly large ones and only picked the decent-sized ones, carrying them with both his hands.
This was everything he needed to conduct the test. The rest would be up to his vision.
After counting down a few seconds, Max suddenly threw the woods towards Smiling Death, who was following closely behind him.
As the distance between them wasn't too wide, the projectile he threw shot directly towards Smiling Death.
However, it didn't manage to hit him. Brandishing his dagger, Smiling Death easily blocked and slashed the flying objects targeted at him.
Smiling Death was amused by the ineffective attempts. If he got held back by some tree branches, then even he would be ashamed of himself.
Unknown to him, Max couldn't wipe off the smile on his face. He had finally confirmed it. Now at long last, it was time for him to fight back.
Not giving Smiling Death an idea, Max slightly slowed down, pretending to be exhausted to further narrow the distance between them.
Once the gap got smaller, Max, with great force, suddenly took an opposite turn, lunging towards Smiling Death, who was surprised by his actions.
Shouldn't he be the one chasing? Why did his target, who had only been running away the whole time, suddenly turned on him?
Although Smiling Death was surprised, he was quick to react, blocking the dagger that appeared out of nowhere on his target's hands.
A sharp metallic sound rang out as the two weapons collided, each having their own force empowering it.
Hearing this, Max now proved that all those terrifying flames were fake, which was only meant to trick his senses into believing it was all real.
His dagger was nothing special. It was only a disposable one that is designed to be used on casual battles and training.
Max had lots of it in his Inventory. It was cheap for a dagger, yet it managed to stay undamaged even after connecting to the fiery, destructive blade the man had.
Naturally, it wasn't that his dagger was special in any way. It was only proof that the weapon on the man's hands was nothing but an ordinary blade disguised as something formidable.
Max only dared to try this because he was already confident that it was only an illusion.
When Max threw back a good amount of tree branches, the man would only evade it, but occasionally, he would use his dagger to block it.
Every time he did that, Max would always keep a close eye at the parts where the branches connect with the weapon.
Since Max only got decent sized branches, he would clearly see if it was burnt by the weapon or not, and with the fearsome power behind the flames, it would surely not be limited to small burns.
Just like what he had expected, the tree branches never once ignited in flames.
This made his confidence grow, and ultimately, it led to the decision of Max using his weapon to initiate the first contact.
Knowing that the weapon was only an ordinary one, Max had no more reason to be alarmed.
It was time to put an end to all of this.
Without stopping, Max rained down a barrage of attacks with Smiling Death, only barely keeping up with him. Still, his smile never disappeared as if nothing could ever bother him.
Finally, when Max saw an opportunity, his dagger nimbly went past the arm of Smiling Death straight towards his chest.
*ting*
The dagger mysteriously bounced off. Surprised, Max only paused for a second before swiftly sliding to his side, swinging his blade towards his unprotected throat.
Smiling Death only smiled at Max as if he had already expected it. Max, on the other hand, became more serious while also being slightly confused.
This couldn't possibly be another trick, right?

TPI Composites expands blade supply deal with GE
By Michelle Froese | August 8, 2018
GE has plans to transition to a larger blade model in TPI's Iowa plant in early 2019. (Image: GE Energy)
Arizona-based TPI Composites, a manufacturer of composite wind-turbine blades, has announced an extension of its blade supply agreement with GE. The agreement is for an additional two years for one of GE's production sites in Mexico.
The new agreement will expand GE's access to production lines at one of TPI's plants in Mexico from three to five, and will run through 2022.
Additionally, GE has agreed to use a larger blade model that TPI will manufacture at its Iowa facility in early 2019, and to eliminate its option of ending a supply deal in Iowa before its expiry in December 2020. TPI has agreed to remove three production lines for another manufacturer "subject to geographic exclusivity versus a minimum volume obligation."

After completing my law degree at the University of Manchester in 2004, the pressure was on to decide which path I wanted to take: whether I wanted to be a barrister or a solicitor or whether I even wanted to pursue a career in law. However, the decision was not so tough for me as I had made my decision about the profession I wanted to go into when I was aged just 14. I knew I wanted to be a barrister and it was my love of advocacy that drew me to the profession.
A Pupillage in London
As soon as I finished my law degree, I applied to do the Bar Vocational Course (BVC – now the BPTC) at The Inns of Court School of Law in London (now The City Law School). Before I had completed my BVC, I had already been offered a pupillage at 14 Grays Inn Square. Based in the centre of London, this was a predominantly family law set with a strong reputation in all aspects of family law. As I knew how difficult it was – and still is – to obtain a pupillage, the assurance that I had already obtained a pupillage gave me an incentive to work even harder during the BVC.
Moving back North
The hustle and bustle and the fast pace of London life is something I will never forget. It was an experience I thoroughly enjoyed and I feel it helped me to grow as an individual. Though I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of living and working in London, I soon began to realize how increasingly expensive the city was. I decided to return to my hometown of Manchester and continue my career as a barrister there. In Manchester, I joined Kenworthy's Chambers, one of the most sought after barrister's chambers in the North of England and a leading set in Immigration and Asylum Law. I continued to practice in Family Law and also added Immigration and Asylum Law to my practice.
Life in LA
By broadening my Family Law practice to Immigration, Asylum and International Law, I began to develop a keen interest for world affairs and global political issues. I wanted to experience the legal system in another country. I wrote different articles on world issues but soon found that I wanted to experience a more hands-on approach. I therefore started to do some research on taking a sabbatical year in order to work in another country. In 2009, I came to hear about an extremely impressive firm in Los Angeles, California, called Howarth and Smith. Howarth and Smith offer students from Oxford and Cambridge University a one year internship program in which British lawyers are able to experience American law. As well as this, Howarth and Smith allows British lawyers to stay rent-free in a beach house condo in Malibu. I did not graduate from Oxford or Cambridge University but I nevertheless had the experience of a practicing barrister. Therefore, I applied for a position at Howarth and Smith and I was extremely pleased when I was offered this position.
Living in Malibu
London v Malibu – hard choice?! Credit: 12thSonOfLama
One of the most surreal experiences started soon after I moved to Malibu. I remember waking up early in the morning to go to the grocery store, which was five minutes from the beach house condo in which I lived, and I was on the phone to my father in England.
Half way through the phone call conversation I said to him, "Oh my God, James Bond is right in front of me now at the grocery store buying a pint a of milk!" He replied, "You mean Sean Connery! Sean Connery is there at the grocery store?" I said to him, "no, the other one! The younger one! Pierce Brosnan!" And there he was. Right in front of me.
Pierce Brosnan just casually buying a pint of milk at the local grocery store.
There came to be many more experiences like this in Malibu and I came to realize that the area in which I lived in Malibu, Point Dume, was a private property area in which many celebrities lived.
LA Law and Howarth and Smith
As well as the surreal experience of living in an area in which many celebrities lived, I had the great opportunity of working at Howarth and Smith. The partners at Howarth and Smith, Don Howarth, Suzelle Smith and Paddy Glaspy, were all graduates from Harvard University. As well as this, Don and Suzelle would regular fly to England to lecture at Oxford University.
Whilst working at Howarth and Smith, I was stimulated by working on legal cases which involved Californian Law. It took time to grasp the American legal system, but, similar to London, LA did not wait for anyone and so this often meant researching the law after work in order to keep up with work at the law firm.
Attorney Retreat in LA
Working in the law firm consisted of working on many high profile cases; conducting legal research for the Partners in the firm; preparing various legal documents, including pleadings and legal memoranda, and preparing attorneys for appearances in court and at depositions. One of the most interesting cases I assisted the attorneys on was a case against the Iranian Government for $28 million.
As well as the interesting case work, the Partners in the firm arranged for us all to go on a Summer Attorney Retreat Program in Palm Springs California for three days which enabled us all to get to know the Partners in the firm on a more relaxed and personal level. The previous year the Partners had taken all of the attorneys to a Retreat Program in Paris. It was a great experience.
The biggest and best surprise
Once the sabbatical year was over, I returned to Kenworthy's Chambers in England and continued my practice as a barrister. However, during the time in which I lived in America, I did not only experience major changes in my work life but also in my personal life. I met my husband, Dr Elias Hanosh, in America. Kenworthy's Chambers were so good to me that they gave me time off to go and visit America as often as I could to go and visit my husband. After a lot of flying back and forth in between America and England, we both decided that America was the best place for us to settle since his practice is in America. I decided that I would still pursue my job as a lawyer but that it would be out here in America and not in England.
Living in America, I continue to pursue my interest in International law. I have taken the Bar exam out here in the States. As well as this, I keep close ties with legal events in England. In 2011, I came across an email from Carol Harris at the Bar Council of England and Wales in which both the Family Law Bar Association (FLBA) and the Bar Council were offering a grant of £2500 to two barristers who were interested in attending the International Bar Association Conference in Dubai. I applied for this grant detailing all of the international legal experience I had so far. I was delighted to find out a month later that I was awarded the grant and was able to attend the conference in Dubai. This year, I also attended the American Bar Association (ABA) Conference in New York. The key speaker was the Hollywood actor Michael Douglas who is a Messenger of Peace for the United Nations. Attending the conference gave me a chance to mingle with so many interesting people at The Bar.
Though my life is nothing like the surreal experience I had whilst living in Malibu, and nothing like the hustle and bustle and fast pace of London city life, I am happier than I have ever been now. I did not plan any of these changes but I took chances and risks in order to experience new things. I feel that my education opened doors for me that I could never have imagined to walk through had I not studied hard and obtained the grades that I wanted to. I have made so many friends along the way and continue to stay in touch with the barristers and the clerks at 14 Grays Inn Square, Kenworthy's Chambers and the attorneys at Howarth and Smith. Every day I feel like I am creating more ways to follow my dream.

Epicenter Wins the Louisiana Derby
Liz GoldsmithThoroughbred RacingEpicenter, Joel Rosario, Louisiana Derby, Steve AsmussenLeave a comment
Epicenter, trained by Steve Asmussen and ridden by Joel Rosario, blasted down the home stretch to set a track record in the 109th Louisiana Derby, finishing 2 1/2 lengths ahead to win in 1:54.38 for the 1 3/16 race. This is an important prep race for the Kentucky Derby and cemented the colt as a top contender. Epicenter has now won three of his last four races, including the Risen Star Stakes (G2) at 1 1/8 miles in gate-to-wire fashion. He has won 4 of 6 starts and earned more than $1 million.
Epicenter had already qualified for the Derby but this win puts him on top of the leaderboard with 164 points.
"The progression of the races for us to a mile and an eighth and now a mile and 3/16ths, and the opportunity to tuck him in today, we feel like we're as prepared as we could possibly be mentally and physically, with a great chance at the Kentucky Derby," the Hall of Fame trainer said.
Steve Asmussen
In the Louisiana Derby, Epicenter got a skillful ride from Joel Rosario (who rode last year's winner, Hot Rod Charlie) and showed tactical speed when asked to go wide. Louisiana Derby is the longest prep race in the Road to the Kentucky Derby series and one of the oldest. The historic race dates back to 1894, which makes the Louisiana Derby almost as old as the Kentucky Derby itself. Over the years, the length of the Louisiana Derby has varied four times, most recently moving to 1 3/16ths miles in 2020. The purse has risen from a $1500 in 1894 (the equivalent of $49,485 dollars) to $1 million. Although it is an important stepping stone to the Kentucky Derby, only two winners of the Louisiana Derby have gone on to win the Kentucky Derby: Black Gold in 1924, and Grindstone in 1996. Three others, Funny Cide , Country House , and Mandaloun , triumphed in the Run for the Roses at Churchill Downs after losses in the Louisiana Derby.
Asmussen said that Epicenter would be back at Churchill Downs by Monday and he would let the weather dictate the plan for the colt's first work back en route to the world's most prestigious horse race.

In just six years, the "Yoga With Adriene" channel has drawn in over 4 million YouTube subscribers from around the globe, with the platform helping encourage individuals to strike a yoga pose or two — all from the comfort of their own home.
Yet this huge following and global success may have not materialized to the extent it has done, if it wasn't for an important conversation that its host, Adriene Mishler, had years ago.
Growing up, Mishler had two dream jobs in mind: acting and teaching. Luckily, when "Yoga With Adriene" came along, the opportunity allowed her two passions to intermingle. Before the channel really took off, however, Mishler was at a crossroads in her career.
When talking over coffee with a person Mishler now considers as a dear friend and mentor, the yoga teacher was torn over whether she should relocate from Texas, to live in another state.
"I was trying to decide whether or not I should move to LA (Los Angeles) — this was after I'd been in a big movie with a big, huge American actor, celebrity," Mishler, the yoga teacher, actress and entrepreneur told CNBC Make It.
"And I was like 'Should I move? Should I stay? What should I do with my life?'"
And what her friend suggested was something the YouTube star considers as some of the "best advice" she's received.
"She said, 'The best advice I can give you is, obviously, listen to your guts. But for an actor, and I think this goes for all artists: try to find one thing — and that's not to take away from this passion you have of your art — but try to find one voice outside of that, while you're building this.'"
In some respects, what Mishler's friend was saying was "don't throw your eggs all into one basket." While some actors go on to star in several Hollywood blockbusters, many others fail to hit it big and end up having to find alternative ways to make ends meet. And the same can apply to a lot of professions that people want to pursue.
While she had worked in the entertainment industry, Mishler described this practical advice as "so wise" as it allowed her to consider other parts of her life that she was focused on — including teaching yoga.
"That (advice) stuck with me. And then, that's when I knew that the yoga wasn't just going to be a side job," the YouTube star said.
With a background in professional theater, Mishler has done voicework for video games, acted in TV shows such as Rooster Teeth's "Day 5," and in movies like "Joe" and "Good Night."
While "Yoga With Adriene" has become a global phenomenon, Mishler admits that she still wants to get back into acting, in some capacity or other — but for now, her focus is on providing people of all shapes and sizes with high-quality yoga.
With Mishler realizing that teaching was more than just "a side job," it allowed her channel "Yoga With Adriene" to grow, and with that, Mishler's influence in the space helped expand the brand into doing international roadshows, e-commerce, and co-founding "Find What Feels Good," a video subscription service that offers a vast library of yoga lifestyle content.
And not only has this advice stuck with Mishler, the YouTube sensation now passes on these wise words to other people she crosses along her journey.

BHP Billiton and POSCO Commit to Mining Area C Feasibility Study
17 September 2001, 10:00 AM
Melbourne and London
BHP Billiton today confirmed that Pohang Iron & Steel Co Ltd (POSCO) will participate in a feasibility study for the development and operation of an iron ore mine at Mining Area C in the central Pilbara, Western Australia.
POSCO signed a letter of intent with BHP Billiton to acquire a 20 per cent interest in a new joint venture covering the 'C Deposit' development earlier this year. POSCO's decision to participate in the feasibility study was made after undertaking a due diligence and review of BHP Billiton's pre-feasibility study.
The feasibility study is due for completion by the first quarter of 2002. The study will scope the nature of the development and determine the level of capital expenditure associated with mine construction as well as supporting rail and port infrastructure.
Subject to final statutory approvals, BHP Billiton will start work on the extraction of a 740,000 tonne bulk sample of 'Marra Mamba' iron ore from Mining Area C for trial by overseas steel mills later this month. The first shipment of the bulk sample is expected to commence in April 2002.
Full-scale mining is expected to commence in 2003 following construction of a 37-kilometre rail spur linking Mining Area C with BHP Billiton's existing railway network at the nearby Yandi mine. Mining rates are to be ramped up gradually, in line with market demand, and could potentially reach 15 million tonnes per annum.
Mining Area C contains the largest undeveloped Marra Mamba resource in the Pilbara. This resource is currently estimated at 890 million tonnes (as listed in the BHP 2000 Report to Shareholders) with significant exploration potential.
'C Deposit' is located on the northern flank of Mining Area C and contains a proven reserve of 161 million tonnes and a probable reserve of 29 million tonnes (total 189 million tonnes rounded).
Ore Reserve Statement
The information in this story that relates to Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves is based on information compiled by M. Kneeshaw (resources) and P. Schultz (reserves) who are employees of BHP Billiton and who are a Fellow and Member respectively of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy.
M Kneeshaw and P Shultz have sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which they are undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 1999 Edition of the "Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves". M Kneeshaw and P Shultz consent to the inclusion in the story of the matters based on their information in the form and context in which it appears.

As soon as I saw the inspiration picture for this month, I knew I wanted to use thread in my earrings.
My two ideas were making tassels or wrapping thread around hoops. Both ideas centered around the rectangular, pressed glass flower beads I got last week. Since I'd never made any, I thought I would try tassels. I still want to try the others with hoops but need to get more of the flower beads or find some similar shaped ones in my bead hoard stash.
Here's what I ended up with after I added the beads to the tassels.
and the thread colors of the tassels draw from the embroidery. I really like how they swing and I'll definitely make more in some different colors.
Here's the Earrings Everyday reveal post with everyone's creations!
I adore your design and thought process. Thanks for the nice comments on the ones I made...you totally figured out the points I took from the illustration! If all goes well I hope to see you in next month's challenge.
Thank you. I enjoy seeing everyone's thought process of illustration to earrings, too.
Thank you, I love their movement, too.
Great connection with the painting through your use of threads! Fun earrings!
Those pastel tassels are just perfect! I love the softness of the tassels. Lovely earrings!

Swine Flu: A Survivor's Tale
By Ioan Grillo / Mexico City Tuesday, May 05, 2009
Eduardo Verdugo / AP
Residents of Mexico City wear masks as they exit the city's subway system.
When Moises Bonilla watched a fellow swine flu sufferer breathe her last in the isolated hospital ward, he prayed he would not follow her. The 39-year-old woman had been on the bed next to him for two days, tubes shoved into her throat, her eyes rarely flickering. Although she was unable to speak, Bonilla felt an affinity with her as he did with all his fellow patients, who egged each other on with calls to keep fighting. But she slipped away and became a reminder about how bad things could get. "It was the darkest moment I have ever had," says Bonilla, who would spend five days in the hospital. "I just tried to think about better times, about my wife and children, to give me the strength to go on."
Back in the cramped Mexico City apartment he shares with two daughters and two grandchildren, Bonilla, 46, a maintenance worker, recounts his ordeal to TIME. He has been out of hospital for two days but is still coughing and spluttering behind a blue facemask, his head aching slightly as he finishes his course of anti-viral drugs. The Mexican government has tried to protect the names of swine flu victims, fearing publicity could stigmatize them. But Bonilla is unafraid to tell his tale, hoping his words will give the world better insight into the H1N1 virus. He also wants to remind people that even if the numbers of hospitalized and dying is not as high as feared, the grief and pain for some can still be truly harrowing. "Some people think that this virus has just been made up by the government or the newspapers," he says. "But from what I have gone through I know it is a very real." (See pictures of thermal scanning used in the hunt for swine flu infection.)
A runner with a trim muscular upper body, Bonilla says he is normally in good health, and never used to be concerned about flu. "I used to think it was just something that you got in the night and that was gone the next day," he says. He hoped it would be the same when he felt a sore throat and headache develop on April 22. But the next day his temperature shot up to 102 degrees and his throat closed so tightly he could hardly breathe. "I didn't want to upset my wife and daughters, so I tried to pretend it wasn't so bad," he says. "But then the pain became so much I couldn't even stand up or sit on the sofa. I just lay on the floor and tried to breathe." (Check out a story on whether the alarm over swine flu was justified.)
Just as Bonilla was being struck down, news flashed up on the television about how the swine flu virus had been found in Mexico. His wife rushed him to a public hospital in his Iztapalapa district and he was rapidly put in isolation with five other patients. "We had no communication with the outside world — no newspapers or telephones — so we didn't know much about this swine flu or how bad it was," he recalls. "When the woman died we were scared that this could be the fate of us all." Their fears only increased when a doctor and nurse who had been attending to sufferers also developed symptoms, and themselves became patients in the ward. (See the top five swine flu don'ts)
His wife Blanca Arcos waited day and night in the hospital. Unlike her husband, she was exposed to the full media frenzy on the virus adding to her anxiety. "I couldn't get to see him at all, not even though glass. So I just had to imagine what he was going through," Arcos says, also wearing a facemask in their apartment. "I tried to tell myself he was strong. But then my other relatives would say how bad this swine flu is."
Doctors soon gave Bonilla an anti-viral drug that is known in Mexico as oseltamivir (and more popularly known as Tamiflu) making his condition rapidly improve. In some ways, the timing of sickness was lucky, he says. Once they had identified swine flu on April 23, Mexican health authorities rushed anti-virals to hospitals and found they were very effective. But many who had started suffering before had already developed severe pneumonia; and for some, it was too late to be saved. The errors in treatment in the first weeks of the outbreak do much to explain the higher death rate in Mexico than the United States. By Monday, the Mexican government had confirmed 26 deaths that were caused by the swine flu virus, compared to one north of the border.
Bonilla finally left hospital after five days — a period after which he was unlikely to be still contagious. However, he was told to remain in his apartment for another eight days, while his grandchildren stayed with relatives. No other family members have developed symptoms, reflecting a relatively low infection-rate of the virus. Bonilla is still visibly shaken by his brush with swine flu and concerned about the disease spreading around the planet. But he says that it has taught him one positive thing: to appreciate what he has. "I know that I am lucky to be here getting my health back with my wife and children around me," he says. "Now I have more incentive than ever to enjoy my life."

How Sports Empower Communities Around the World
It is well known that physical activity can prevent many health conditions, from mental illnesses to type-2 diabetes and obesity to some cancers. Unfortunately, owing to recent lockdowns, numerous people were prevented from leaving their homes for extended periods which made exercising increasingly difficult, so now more than ever is the time to return to health and fitness.
The Global Social Prescribing Alliance (GSPA) shares, "In a world operating beyond the pandemic, traditional approaches to health and wellbeing might no longer be enough."
To that end, social prescribing is a 'strengths-based' approach that begins with a common understanding of the greatest issues facing society, as well as mapping available resources to acquire shared solutions. Being active is a key element of this concept - keeping people moving, connected, able to work and volunteer, and getting out of the house.
We have seen how UEFA football and the Olympics have brought together fans on national and global scales. The BBC alone broadcasted 350 hours of the Tokyo Olympics, acting as a key motivator for exercise, which provided a sense of community as well as inspired those watching to be more fit and active themselves. So, while the world's finest athletes take the stage at the Olympics, those at home are using the power of sport to help improve their own physical and mental wellbeing and recuperate after the pandemic.
Social prescribing has the potential to do the very same on a local basis. Its focus is on what matters to individuals - a holistic view of one's needs and strengths - not just their biomedical ones that require 'fixing'. Good social prescribing is therefore attainable when local partners collaborate in building upon existing community assets and services. This includes opportunities for creativity and the arts, as well as physical activities, learning new skills, volunteering and self-help, in addition to support with benefits, employment, housing, and debt.
The central feature of social prescribing is enabling local agencies to refer people to link workers, each of whom uses a personalised care approach, and connects people to community groups and agencies that will support their health and wellbeing. For instance, people who are susceptible to falls might be signposted to a dance class to help work on their balance, or people with arthritis could be referred to a specialised group exercise regime.
Essentially, social prescribing helps people to live fitter, healthier, and more satisfied lives by signposting them to community services that also provide social interaction. It is an innovative movement that is growing and has potential to lower financial burdens on our health services, especially on primary care.
The GSPA Playbook shares expert guidance on the best health and wellbeing practices and develops the vision set out by global leaders in 2015 at the UN General Assembly, when the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were first announced.
Providing an outline of opportunities for creating novel ethical platforms that can alleviate pressures on public services, the Global Social Prescribing Alliance invites other health professionals to learn more about this revolutionary approach to healthcare and implement measures in their own local communities.

The Standards and Administration Regulation of the Agricultural Operation Practices Act (AOPA) gives the Natural Resources Conservation Board (NRCB) discretion to require an operator of a confined feeding operation (CFO) to install and maintain a leak detection system at a manure storage facility. A leak detection system is intended to assess the performance of the storage facility by identifying leakage or seepage that may be occurring through the use of groundwater monitoring wells. AOPA requires the quality of groundwater from the monitoring wells to be monitored at regular intervals to detect contamination from the facility. The act, however, does not specify the physical, chemical and microbial parameters to be monitored, or the sampling intervals.
This guideline outlines the groundwater monitoring parameters that typically will be assessed if the permit issued to the CFO requires a leak detection system. It also identifies the baseline and indicator parameters that are used to measure changes in ground water quality. These parameters may be adjusted by the NRCB for site-specific situations, and may be altered to include additional or alternative requirements for groundwateror water well monitoring.
In these cases, the NRCB will outline the requirements and provide reasons in a written decision. To confirm the monitoring requirements for a specific operation, please contact the NRCB office nearest to the operation.
This guideline does not provide information about how to conduct hydrogeological assessments; how or where to construct, install and develop groundwater monitoring wells; or how to sample groundwater. Information on these topics is available in other technical guidelines. For more information, see the end of this technical guideline.
Leakage from earthen liquid manure storage facilities is typically detected by monitoring, changes in groundwater levels and groundwater chemistry. Groundwater quality conditions in the vicinity of a manure storage facility, measured before or soon after the facility is in operation, can provide an effective baseline reference for future comparisons.
Baseline groundwater conditions are affected by geologic and hydrogeological factors, as well as any number of other activities from human sources that have the potential to affect groundwater. Groundwater levels and chemistry can also vary seasonally. A comprehensive understanding of the baseline groundwater conditions at a site is required to interpret the results of sampling over time, and to distinguish the source of changes in the conditions.
Changes to groundwater quality and level are detected by sampling and measuring indicator parameters after the baseline conditions have been established. Indicator parameters include constituents that are commonly present in relatively high concentrations in manure, and in relatively low concentrations in natural or background groundwater. If elevated or abnormal levels of indicator parameters are discovered during indicator sampling, comparison to baseline conditions will indicate the possibility of leakage from the manure storage facility. If the results differ from the baseline conditions, further evaluation may be required to confirm possible leakage, which may include additional analysis for any or all of the baseline parameters and may be followed by requirements for further action.
Baseline sampling should preferably occur in the spring and fall, or as directed by the NRCB.
For new construction, baseline sampling must be conducted twice in the first year following facility construction. At least one sampling event must be conducted before a new facility becomes operational.
Indicator sampling will typically be completed annually, during the same month each year, and preferably in a month consistent with the baseline sampling. The frequency and timing of groundwater sampling for indicator parameters may be altered at the discretion and direction of the NRCB.
Additional sampling for baseline parameters may be required if subsequent indicator sampling indicates the possibility of manure leakage.
Baseline parameters include major ions, nutrients and other parameters commonly found in manure. These parameters provide a reasonably comprehensive picture of baseline groundwater conditions in the vicinity of a facility, and can be used in the future to compare samples and interpret changes. Baseline parameters do not include all possible groundwater parameters that could be used to detect manure constituents. They do provide for a reasonable understanding of the groundwater conditions at a site at the particular point in time that they are measured, and allow for the detection of potential manure leakage.
The baseline parameters are ammonium-nitrogen, chloride, nitrate-nitrogen, nitrite-nitrogen, potassium, total dissolved phosphorus, pH, electrical conductivity, groundwater level elevation, bicarbonate, calcium, dissolved organic carbon, magnesium, sodium, sulphate, total dissolved solids, an ion balance, and Escherichia coli (see Table 1).
The indicator parameters include ammoniumnitrogen, chloride, nitrate-nitrogen, nitrite-nitrogen, potassium, total dissolved phosphorus, pH, electrical conductivity, and groundwater elevation (See Table 1).
Laboratories commonly offer analytical packages that include many of the indicator parameters, as well as additional parameters not required as part of the indicator analysis. The packages are often less costly than analyzing each indicator parameter individually. Use of the packages is acceptable, provided that all required indicator parameters are analyzed and reported on.
Table 1. Baseline and indicator groundwater monitoring parameters for leak detection.
All groundwater sample analysis must be performed by a laboratory that is accredited by the Canadian Association for Laboratory Accreditation (CALA). In addition, a suitably qualified and experienced third-party professional must be responsible for assessing the data.
Leak detection groundwater monitoring reports must be submitted to the NRCB. Reports should consist of an overview of the CFO and the manure storage facility being monitored (for example land location, livestock numbers, date constructed), and a history of activities and assessments at the site. A description of the groundwater monitoring wells and locations should also be provided (including a site diagram), as well as a description of the sampling techniques and protocol followed for collection of the groundwater samples. Groundwater sample data and interpretations should be included as a summary of findings and should be compared to historical values. The report should also include any recommendations for future activities, and any follow up action required. The certificate of analysis from the laboratory should be attached to each report. The NRCB may require additional information as part of the monitoring report, depending on the results in the report and site specific conditions and requirements.
A checklist for report is provided below.

The People's Republic of China is helping to feed the needy in the Bahamian community with a generous food donation to the Bahamas Feeding Network (BFN).
The Embassy purchased $3,000 worth of food from local wholesalers on BFN's behalf. The gift, which comes in the wake of Thanksgiving, placed a smile on the face of Executive Director Philip Smith who said it would go a long way in helping society's most underprivileged.
"The food supplies are sufficient for 1,750 meals which will go toward helping to feed the more than 40,000 persons who do not know where their next plate of food will come from," said Smith, who oversees the operation that cooks and distributes some 3,500 hot meals and distributes 500 food parcels a week from its base at Moseff House in Fox Hill.
"Anyone who needs food can come to us. We never want to see anyone go hungry," he said.

Former President of the Bahamas China Friendship Association, Philip Simon brought the Network to the consulate's attention. Every year the Chinese Embassy seeks to support charitable works in The Bahamas.
"He told us about the organization's mission to provide food for the poor and we wanted to help," said Chinese Ambassador Huang Qinguo.

Following the presentation, Smith led Ambassador Qinguo on a brief tour of the organization's facilities. Inside the humble building more than a dozen volunteers worked in harmony packing food parcels and loaded vans with hot meals to distribute through a web of non-profit organisations of churches, soup kitchens and other feeding programs.
Bahamas Feeding Network is the brainchild of His Excellency Frank J Crothers, Ambassador of the Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and Malta. Launched in 2013, the Bahamas Feeding Network commenced operation preparing around 450 fresh meals and distributing around 50 food parcels to its feeding partners. To date, the Bahamas Feeding Network has distributed more than $450,000 in food vouchers to those in need. This year alone the organization has made and shared 182,000 meals.

Warp Drive Feasible? Relativity Loophole Means 'Star Trek' Device Might Actually Work, Physicists Say
Loophole May Allow Faster-Than-Light Travel, Physicists Say
May 14, 2013, 01:07 PM EDT
By: Jillian Scharr
Published: 05/14/2013 11:20 AM EDT on TechNewsDaily
In the "Star Trek" TV shows and films, the U.S.S. Enterprise's warp engine allows the ship to move faster than light, an ability that is, as Spock would say, "highly illogical."
However, there's a loophole in Einstein's general theory of relativity that could allow a ship to traverse vast distances in less time than it would take light. The trick? It's not the starship that's moving — it's the space around it.
In fact, scientists at NASA are right now working on the first practical field test toward proving the possibility of warp drives and faster-than-light travel. Maybe the warp drive on "Star Trek" is possible after all. [See also: Warp Drive: Can It Be Done? (Video)]
According to Einstein's theory, an object with mass cannot go as fast or faster than the speed of light. The original "Star Trek" series ignored this "universal speed limit" in favor of a ship that could zip around the galaxy in a matter of days instead of decades. They tried to explain the ship's faster-than-light capabilities by powering the warp engine with a "matter-antimatter" engine. Antimatter was a popular field of study in the 1960s, when creator Gene Roddenberry was first writing the series. When matter and antimatter collide, their mass is converted to kinetic energy in keeping with Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula, E=mc.
In other words, matter-antimatter collision is a potentially powerful source of energy and fuel, but even that wouldn't be enough to propel a starship to faster-than-light speeds.
Nevertheless, it's thanks to "Star Trek" that the word "warp" is now practically synonymous with faster-than-light travel.
Is warp drive possible?
Decades after the original "Star Trek" show had gone off the air, pioneering physicist and avowed Trek fan Miguel Alcubierre argued that maybe a warp drive is possible after all. It just wouldn't work quite the way "Star Trek" thought it did.
Things with mass can't move faster than the speed of light. But what if, instead of the ship moving through space, the space was moving around the ship?
Space doesn't have mass. And we know that it's flexible: space has been expanding at a measurable rate ever since the Big Bang. We know this from observing the light of distant stars — over time, the wavelength of the stars' light as it reaches Earth is lengthened in a process called "redshifting." According to the Doppler effect, this means that the source of the wavelength is moving further away from the observer — i.e. Earth.
So we know from observing redshifted light that the fabric of space is movable. [See also: What to Wear on a 100-Year Starship Voyage]
Alcubierre used this knowledge to exploit a loophole in the "universal speed limit." In his theory, the ship never goes faster than the speed of light — instead, space in front of the ship is contracted while space behind it is expanded, allowing the ship to travel distances in less time than light would take. The ship itself remains in what Alcubierre termed a "warp bubble" and, within that bubble, never goes faster than the speed of light.
Since Alcubierre published his paper "The Warp Drive: Hyper-fast travel within general relativity" in 1994, many physicists and science fiction writers have played with his theory —including "Star Trek" itself. [See also: Top 10 Star Trek Technologies]
Alcubierre's warp drive theory was retroactively incorporated into the "Star Trek" mythos by the 1990s TV series "Star Trek: The Next Generation."
In a way, then, "Star Trek" created its own little grandfather paradox: Though ultimately its theory of faster-than-light travel was heavily flawed, the series established a vocabulary of light-speed travel that Alcubierre eventually formalized in his own warp drive theories.
The Alcubierre warp drive is still theoretical for now. "The truth is that the best ideas sound crazy at first. And then there comes a time when we can't imagine a world without them." That's a statement from the 100 Year Starship organization, a think tank devoted to making Earth what "Star Trek" would call a "warp-capable civilization" within a century.
The first step toward a functional warp drive is to prove that a "warp bubble" is even possible, and that it can be artificially created.
That's exactly what physicist Harold "Sonny" White and a team of researchers at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Texas are doing right now.
NASA's warp drive project
According to Alcubierre's theory, one could create a warp bubble by applying negative energy, or energy created in a vacuum. This process relies on the Casimir effect, which states that a vacuum is not actually a void; instead, a vacuum is actually full of fluctuating electromagnetic waves. Distorting these waves creates negative energy, which possibly distorts space-time, creating a warp bubble.
To see if space-time distortion has occurred in a lab experiment, the researchers shine two highly targeted lasers: one through the site of the vacuum and one through regular space. The researchers will then compare the two beams, and if the wavelength of the one going through the vacuum is lengthened, i.e. redshifted, in any way, they'll know that it passed through a warp bubble. [See also: How Video Games Help Fuel Space Exploration]
White and his team have been at work for a few months now, but they have yet to get a satisfactory reading. The problem is that the field of negative energy is so small, the laser so precise, that even the smallest seismic motion of the earth can throw off the results.
When we talked to White, he was in the process of moving the test equipment to a building on the Johnson Space Center campus that was originally built for the Apollo space program. "The lab is seismically isolated, so the whole floor can be floated," White told TechNewsDaily. "But the system hadn't been [activated] for a while so part of the process was, we had the system inspected and tested."
White is now working on recalibrating the laser for the new location. He wouldn't speculate on when his team could expect conclusive data, nor how long until fully actuated warp travel might be possible, but he remains convinced that it's only a matter of time.
"The bottom line is, nature can do it," said White. "So the salient question is, 'can we?'"
