Life Coaches in Manassas, VA—Prince William Counseling and Coaching

Coach Jimmy Dugan inspired his team to do the impossible both on the baseball field and off. His team was compiled of no average baseball players. In an era when men were off fighting World War II and most people thought women could not play baseball, Jimmy brought talented women together to form a professional baseball team. The glue that held the team together, Dugan held his team to high standards, and they rose to the occasion. Famously, he brought his team together when they were discouraged and inspired them, saying, “It’s supposed to be hard. If it wasn’t hard, everyone would do it. The hard … is what makes it great.” The full story is chronicled in the movie, A League of Their Own, and it is hard to watch the movie without wanting a Jimmy Dugan in your own life. What would it be like to have someone believe the best for you? Challenge you? Motivate you? And give you a pat on the back after a hard-fought win? If that sounds like someone you want in your life, know that life coaches are not so different than sports coaches like Jimmy Dugan. Many people are reaching out for help from a life coach to help them achieve the impossible in their own, personal lives.

Just like athletic coaches, life coaches help their clients know their weakness and strengths. They help their clients make a proactive plan for success. They focus their clients’ attention upon what really matters so that they can say, “no” to distractions. Coaching is not just for the baseball field.

“To excel at the highest level—or any level, really—you need to believe in yourself, and hands down, one of the biggest contributors to my self-confidence has been private coaching.” —Stephen Curry

Even NBA all-stars use coaching on and off the court. That is why Thriveworks Manassas in Prince William County believes that many people in all different stages of life can benefit from having an advocate to inspire, challenge, and encourage them.

Setting Big Goals

One of the best ways that life coaches help their clients achieve more, whatever more may look like for them, is through setting goals. When people regularly set challenging but sensible goals, they often experience a plethora of benefits. The research backs up many people’s experiences: people who set goals achieve more. One of America’s first inspirational speakers, Orison Swett Marden put it this way, “All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.”

Of course, fixing one’s gaze upon a worthy goal is often easier said than done. Often, the price that long-term achievement exacts is short-term sacrifice. That is where life coaches may be able to help. Life coaches often help their clients make the right goals—pursuing those changes that produce the most impact. When people get the hang of setting and achieving goals, here are a few of the benefits that they often experience:

  1. Increased self-restraint. Anything and everything is constantly pulling people’s attention away from what is most important. Knowing what the target is and how to get there often means people have an easier time saying, “no” to lesser things.
  2. Necessary but difficult steps forward. Goals often allow people to say, “yes” to adjustments in their life that they may have been avoiding. When the sacrifice serves a desired goal, then it is often easier to make.
  3. Whole-hearted living. Goals can align internal values and external actions. What people want becomes what drives their choices and actions. Often, people are happier when they are working toward a goal.
  4. Motivation. Everyone who goes after a challenging goal will experience times of setback and discouragement. Goals gives people a clear vision of the finish line and a reminder of why the sacrifice is worth the effort.

The wonderful thing about life coaching is that anyone can make a goal for anything. The goal can be person or professional—there is nothing off limits. People can set a goal for their attitude and what kind of person they want to become. People can set a goal for their finances and what kind of relationship they want to have with their money. People can even set a goal for fun and recreation and relaxation. If a goal expresses a value that a person holds, then it is worth setting and worth achieving.

“By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be.
Put your future in good hands—your own.” —Mark Victor Hansen

Undermining ISIS from within the Dungeons of the Cyberworld

Paul Maley, in The Australian, 25 March 2019, where the title is “How Aussie Spies won Propaganda War against ISIS”

In late-2016, as coalition aircraft pounded Islamic State targets in Syria and Iraq, the Australian Defence Force’s Commander of Joint Operations, David Johnston, issued a secret order to the Australian Signals Directorate. For the first time, Defence wanted ASD to use its vast cyber capabilities not for intelligence gathering or targeting — the agency’s traditional missions — but to take down and destroy Islamic State’s propaganda machine. What followed was a two-year campaign in which a small team of offensive cyber operators working out of a squat, grey building in Canberra’s Russell Defence precinct, waged war on Islamic State’s information warriors.

In this Nov. 18, 2017 photo, construction workers carry a generator as a bulldozer remove debris from destroyed shops in the Old City of Mosul, Iraq. Along the neighborhood’s gutted roads, a handful of people are beginning to rebuild but the task ahead will take years _ and billions of dollars. (AP Photo/Felipe Dana)

Working in secret and through the night so as to align themselves with the northern time zone, the team hacked networks, destroyed websites, infiltrated chat rooms and stole, or “exfiltrated’’, thousands upon thousands of files.

By the time they were done, Islamic State’s propaganda output had shrunk from a roar to a squeak and the ability of the group’s operatives to produce and disseminate it had been all but destroyed.

The campaign — conducted under the auspices of Operation Okra, the code name for Australia’s military operations in Syria and Iraq — used a sophisticated offensive cyber capability developed in secret by the ADF and publicly acknowledged only three years ago.

In this new, highly sensitive mode of warfare, victory belongs to the side that can most quickly disable or control an enemy’s critical infrastructure — their power grid, their telco network, the centrifuges that separate their nuclear material or, in this case, the media machine that attracted thousands of young Muslims to the black banner of Islamic State.

The operation began in November 2016. The first step was to conduct a detailed intelligence assessment of Islamic State’s media unit as well as an evaluation of the risks involved in shutting it down. The “intelligence gain-loss’’ assessment, as it was known, calculated potentially unforeseen downsides to ripping apart the propaganda unit.

Officially this was the responsibility of the Chief of Joint Operations, although ASD contributed. Would the destruction of the Islamic State information machine deprive the intelligence community of valuable information on who was accessing it? Was it better to have Islamic State operating in plain sight rather than disrupt it and risk having its operation shift to darker corners of the web? The team’s next step was devising what ASD refers to as an “effects plan’’, essentially a description of the mission and how it was to be executed. DSD performs four main functions: supporting Australian Defence Force military operations on the ground, gathering foreign signals intelligence, and cyber security. The fourth is what ASD calls an “effects mission’’. This includes the agency’s offensive cyber capabilities.

Once the effects plan was approved, the team went to work. Between six and 10 operators began by probing Islamic State’s online infrastructure. They were looking for vulnerabilities and access points to its networks and servers. They were also building a picture on how the propaganda machine was structured. Who was running it? Who was producing the material? Where were they? What devices were they using?

One source briefed on the operation said this was where most of the heavy lifting was done. “The hard work is in the intel lead-up. They have specialists in the field who know how to do damage fast.’’

At all times, the team operated in secret. This may sound obvious, but as the source said: “With offensive cyber ops you can choose your level of attribution. They didn’t want them to know it was Australia.’’

A big part of the team’s work involved “deconflicting” with friendly intelligence agencies. The campaign against Islamic State’s digital caliphate was a collaboration with other countries, particularly the Five Eyes governments of the US, Britain, Canada and New Zealand. If the Americans had a particular capability tied up somewhere, the Canadians or the Australians might be asked to step up, assuming they had it and it wasn’t being used elsewhere. But sources close to the campaign said that at the time of the campaign ASD had unique capabilities that none of the agencies could bring to bear.

About 10 offensive cyber operators began by harvesting the passwords of known Islamic State members. They were supported by a team of counter-terrorism analysts who helped identify targets, software engineers, linguists, cultural specialists. A psychologist was on hand to help them predict the reactions of those targeted.

Lawyers were forever being consulted to ensure ASD did not exceed its mission mandate or breach the agency’s most sacred directive: no spying on Australian citizens.

Once they had the passwords, the team used them to gain access to the virtual private networks Islamic State used to communicate. A VPN encrypts and hides a user’s data before it hits the internet allowing them to operate anonymously. Once inside, the DSD team could take command of the network and do with it whatever it wanted. In this case, that meant wreak havoc. More than a dozen administration accounts were hacked, scores of virtual private servers and networks were disabled and about three terabytes of data was exfiltrated. That’s a lot. A single terabyte can hold about two million photos.

The team removed back-ups of Islamic State’s websites and propaganda material. They targeted technical staff and infiltrated dozens of VPNs and virtual private servers.

The BBC Monitoring Service would later report that in October 2017 Islamic State’s daily output dropped from 29 daily messages to just 10. The number of reports produced by its daily news service fell from 421 in September 2017 to 178 in September 2018.

In any other war, such an operation might have been tangential to the main fight. But propaganda was central to Islamic State’s power.

It was propaganda that conveyed the illusion the caliphate was a religious paradise rather than a dystopia that enslaved women and where a fighter’s lifespan was measured in months. It was propaganda that inspired the wave of violence that swept Western cities. And it was propaganda that gave Islamic State the edge over al-Qa’ida in the struggle for leadership of the global jihad. In Islamic State’s carefully crafted vision of itself, the caliphate declared by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had provided an answer to years of Muslim subjugation and a restoration of Sunni pride. In truth, that power was an illusion. Islamic State’s success reflected not the strength of its armies, but the weakness of its enemies.

But the illusion had been crucial to Islamic State’s success and it was that illusion ASD set out to destroy in the summer of 2016.

At its peak, Islamic State’s information machine produced tens of thousands of statements, info graphics and slickly shot videos that glamorised life in the caliphate. A second intelligence source who spoke to The Australianestimated that when it was running at full tilt, about 100 people were working in the media unit.

They were IT experts, software engineers, graphic designers and production editors. All were fair game. The group operated its own radio stations, produced its own magazine, which was published in 11 languages, and ran at least three production companies. It is unclear why Defence waited until 2016 to unleash ASD. The war had by then long passed its strategic tipping point. The caliphate was shrinking. Its fighters were dying in their thousands. The group’s propaganda arm had achieved its main goal of drawing radicalised Muslims to the caliphate. What began as a torrent of extremists quitting their homes for jihad had by late-2016 slowed to a trickle.

For years ASD had been gathering intelligence on Islamic State, which at its peak controlled an area of Syria and Iraq the size of Britain. Phone calls, emails, encrypted chats between operatives in Syria and the West, all of it had been hoovered up by ASD’s vast network of satellites and spy planes and funnelled through the agency’s super computers. The intelligence contributed to what by then had become a highly detailed picture of Islamic State, who was running it, how it was organised, and what its senior operatives were thinking and planning.

ASD has said little about its work in Syria “They have to make the enemy believe that what we’re doing is impossible,’’ one intelligence source familiar with ASD’s operations told The Australian.

{Thu 9 July 2009}   Smooth Red Woman

Smooth Red Woman

Piled under an Italian sky, red marble gleams at me:
“Rosso Ammonico di Verona”, “Rosso Levanto”,
“Rosso Francia”, “Rosso Laguna”, “Rosso Lepanto” …
Seduced, I let the rosy names roll richly off my tongue.
My husband moves on with the guide, but I am enthralled by a red marble woman:

Shining in the sensuous sun, her whole body is deep tongue-texture,
Poised for creamy pleasures.
I cannot pass without caressing her; without sending forth probes
To scan the galaxy of textures just below my reach.
I must stroke her; explore her cool warmth with my fingertips,
Marvel at the harsh practice that produces smooth perfection.
Her delicacy suggests a gentle touch,
But soon I want to lick her, kiss her deeply.

Did she respond to the artisan’s hand as he chipped and chiselled and polished?
Did blood roil in her seething veins?
Did she strive with him to produce this beauty?

My medium’s not marble or any other deserving stone
That earns its right to care by its beautiful existence.
No, my chisel hits flesh, and draws blood, each time.
Its lumpen labour breaks surfaces; bruises.
It’s always amateur art, always a work-in-progress.
I search to expose the beautiful woman,
But each blow chips so little away.

What do I earn by being? By being what I am,
What my mounds, my cracks, my crevasses dictate I must be?
The right to be tossed aside, dismissed, like inferior stone,
Or to be reshaped (misshaped) into something unrecognisable.
My capillaries and crannies are not lovingly polished to reveal their textures.
No, smooth is different for warm-fleshed bodies.

In the world below the marble mountain, there is no real red.
I have spent much life on the effort to be equal:
I could not fashion a man’s sword for myself,
But, with assiduous application of all man’s expertise,
I do not age, have no cramps, show no blood.
My tampon fits discreetly in the palm of my hand.
I am a smoothed-out person, with a smoothed-out life.
No wo(e)-, just -man.

But, inside me, blood breathes and surges.
When the moon is full, it calls and urges.

Why do I fear that place where the Goddess waits?
“I am a woman,” I cry, “See my wedding ring, the pink coat,
The love of roses, the plucking of eyebrows, the Brazilian!”
I don’t want to go to No Man’s Land, where the Goddess waits;
That place where, she says, my name is Woman.

But I hear her calling, “Come, give me your hand.
Let’s wander down the river of blood.”

{Sun 11 February 2007}   whirlwind visit

whirlwind visit

pattering, spattering rain races mission-bent to earth,
alert, seeking, challenging for territory,
it sprays grass and laps up dry land
as poppies pound and skip incorrigibly
to tease its watery muzzle.

today, our trees seem not so much
at mercy of the cavorting current
as at play with it;
dancing, dodging, mocking
leaves laugh out loud
at its tail-chasing;

the old bluegum,
bowing gently to humour
the bristling threat,
lets it sniff around awhile,
then shoos it out

and, with a tailwisp wag, it
whisks over the hedge:
we are unscathed,
but thrilled,

et cetera

Our Story

Tieland offers a fresh approach to ties with traditionally handcrafted Thai silk.

Our simple, yet stylish, solid neckties arose from a pragmatic, minimalist push in fashion that has driven the need for utility. However, the jacquard silk we use is anything but ordinary. The unrefined fabric retains its intricate interlacing characteristics, which exhibits a subtle texture to make every tie unique and highlights the rich craft of traditionally handmade Thai silk.

Authentic Thai Silk
Tieland uses silk that has been granted the Royal Peacock seal of authenticity. The Royal Peacock was created by Her Majesty of the Kingdom of Thailand to protect the reputation of Thai silk from imitation fabrics. It has become the certification trademark of Thai silk standards under the Queen Sirikit Department of Sericulture, which establishes a strict quality control program for Thai silk and protects the health, safety, and well-being of silk producers. Neckties from Tieland are made from genuine, high-quality materials with the interests of the Thai silk industry and people behind the fabric assured.

Culturally Sustainable
Silk is woven into the fabric of society in Thailand’s rural regions. The farming of silk, known as sericulture, has been practiced—and perfected—for many generations in villages across the country that rely on the industry for their livelihoods. The silk threads woven to form the fabric used by Tieland are sourced exclusively from these communities, which helps sustain their heritage.

Traditionally Handcrafted
The luxury of Thai silk has its origins in royalty and rarity. The use of silk in Siam, known today as Thailand, was initially reserved for the royal family and worn on ceremonious occasions. Most silk today is mass-produced and exported from China, while traditionally handcrafted silk from Thailand is rare in comparison. It accounts for less than one percent of silk on the global market.

Not many agents go to the office everyday and say to themselves, “Gee, I can’t wait for a good dose of conflict!”  In fact, most agents run and hide at the very first sign of this villain.  Even if you’re not physically running for the door, there are specific ways to know if that rumbling in your stomach is conflict avoidance or the bad breakfast burrito you ate. The signs of conflict avoidance aren’t always obvious.  When faced with the fear of a challenging client situation, your ego will do some pretty sneaky things to protect itself!

Is your income up and down like a roller coaster?  You may be a conflict avoider!  You didn’t see that one coming, did you? The fact is, for many agents who genuinely want to solve the problems their clients face, they can’t because they lack the skill set necessary to have those conversations.

Have you ever known that your seller needs a price reduction, but avoided asking because you were protecting yourself from the backlash of the seller?  Not only are you a conflict avoider, but you’re practicing something we call ‘self-agency’ and that was definitely NOT on the real estate exam!

If you’re feeling sick, feeling like you’re going to blow a gasket or shrinking back in conversations with clients or even your lead generation and follow-up, you’re losing thousands of dollars in commissions while you’re losing your mind!  Resolve to put a stop to this life-sucking fear and get ready to face it head on.  Before you can ‘do what you don’t want to when you don’t want to do it’ you’ll need to identify the kind of conflict avoider you are.

Today we talk about the 6 ways to know if you’re a person that shy’s away from conflict and how its costing you time, money and most of all, your sanity!

Nobody wants their kid to get mixed up with the wrong people. But even good kids face big challenges and tough choices in life. And often, the first people they turn to are other kids.

That means our kids may be weighed down by the situations their friends are in—and not sure how to help.

So how can parents start good conversations with kids about what do when they see their friends struggling?

Like most adults, says Michele Borba, an educational psychologist and author of Unselfie: Why Empathetic Kids Succeed in an All About Me World, most kids are likely to be bystanders rather than helpers when they see someone in trouble. And “the No. 1 reason is not because they don’t care, but because they don’t know what to do,” says Borba. “We’ve focused so much on helping kids be good workers that we’re not helping them be good helpers.”

At the elementary age, Borba says, parents can help kids build empathy by changing the script. Instead of asking, “What did you do today?” Borba says, try asking “Who did you help?” Parents can also be on the lookout for moments when kids have tuned into someone in need, and encourage them to think about what they’re seeing, with questions like, “How would you feel if that were you? What do you think that you can do?”

Middle school kids are incredibly sensitive to the opinions of others, which is why bullying and peer pressure are so prevalent at this age, says Borba. So a big concern for middle schoolers is how to stick up for a friend. In the moment, Borba says, kids don’t always think quickly enough to intervene. But if parents hear about peer pressure or bullying, they can encourage kids to reach out to their friends, even after the fact, to let them know they’re not alone. And encourage kids to help their friends reach out to a trusted authority. One question all parents should ask their kids at this age, according to Borba: “If there’s a problem, who would you go to?”

By high school, the stakes can be high. “We’ve never seen such high rates of stress and teen suicide,” Borba says. And according to her, “the best safety net is kids helping kids.” But in order to help, kids need specific direction. Parents should continue to make sure kids know how to connect with caring counselors and resources in the community, and be willing to talk through the situations of individual friends as they come up. Borba suggests setting up a distress code, known only to kids and parents, so that kids can reach out to parents for help even in the midst of a high-pressure social situation. Kids could text the code to their parents or say certain words over the phone, which would indicate parents should drop everything and come and get them.

And, she says, parents should keep an eye out for the ways that caring for their friends affects kids—asking kids how they feel, and how they’re doing, as they walk through tough seasons with their friends.

A rich flow of visitors every year spend hours admiring the Mudéjar architecture of beautiful rooms, magical courtyards and the lush colourful gardens to be inspired by the oasis of calm that surrounds the palace. Therefore, long queues for entry at any given time is not surprising. In addition, they have a visitor limit of 750 a day which means there is a chance you may not access the palace even if you had been in the queue for hours. The best tip to avoid disappointment is to pre-book online for a guided tour with priority entrance or skip-the-line ticket.

Seville Cathedral

The Seville Cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, reflecting its cultural and historic importance. This glorious monument is the world’s largest Roman Catholic of Gothic style and its sheer size awes visitors almost immediately as they set sight. Seville Cathedral stands as a symbol of the Christians reconquest over the Moors. It was built on the site of a 12th century Great Mosque, over a course of more than a century, from 1401 through to 1506.

There are many highlights within the Seville Cathedral. The unmissable majestic sight must surely be the thirty metre tall altarpiece that is gilded in finest gold. Gold was brought back from the New World during the age of Christopher Columbus.

Another main attraction for visitors is the final resting place of Christopher Columbus himself. The tomb is held aloft by four bearers, representing the four kingdoms of Spain during Columbus’ time — Castille, Aragon, Navara and Leon.

The Great Chapel and Charter House are also compelling sites to spend some time on.

McConnell was trying to make the election less about Donald Trump and focus it on electing Republicans who will not allow the next president to nominate a liberal Supreme Court justice., but Majority Leader McConnell's strategy has already backfired as President Obama nominated a candidate that would be acceptable to most Senate Republicans.

"I can't imagine that a Republican majority in the United States Senate would want to confirm in a lame-duck session", he added in remarks to Fox News.

"This nomination ought to be considered by the next president", McConnell said on "Fox News Sunday" as he reaffirmed his stance that Garland should not be considered by the Senate before the election.

The GOP hardliners' major theme is that the vacant seat should be filled by the next president, to be chosen in November, so the American people will have been given a voice and a choice in the Supreme Court seating arrangements. Judge Kennedy, like all judges since who have been nominated to the Supreme Court by other Presidents, received a hearing and an up or down vote.

But on Meet the Press, Todd presented Reid with a clip from 2005, in which Reid said, "Nowhere in that document (the Constitution) does it say the Senate has a duty to give presidential nominees a vote".

Republicans have said they want the next president to make the selection, hoping their party wins November's election.

Microsoft takes chatbot offline after offensive Tweets
Last year, Google apologized for a flaw in Google Photos that let the application label photos of black people as "gorillas". Microsoft's public experiment with artificial intelligence apparently needs a major tune-up.

Referring to the Alito filibuster, Jentleson said, "No lay person could possibly consider this to be on the same planet as what Republicans are doing to Garland". Garland "would not have been my nominee", Sanders said, even though he would support him.

Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada called on Republicans to "man up and do it now" in an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press".

Estrada explained that Majority Leader Mitch McConnell 's strategy made sense prior to the nomination in order to force President Obama to nominate a candidate acceptable for the GOP. "But I think eventually we're going to have to say yes or no within a reasonable amount of time".

And in this scenario, Republicans might end up with only downsides: they might end up sustaining a lot of political damage by refusing to act on Obama's nominee at all, and they'd end up squandering the chance to get a more centrist justice, rather than a more liberal one. "We will stand by him from now until he's confirmed and he's sitting on the Supreme Court".

Since we have no Republicans representing this state in Congress, we're at least glad to see that New Hampshire's Kelly Ayotte is one of several GOP senators who plan to meet with Garland in the coming weeks. As President Obama said Wednesday when announcing his nominee, the Supreme Court is "supposed to be above politics". I've appointed over 100 judges in Ohio, including a woman that, fortunately, I was able to appoint to the Ohio Supreme Court. Then they go before a vote in the committee and a vote in the Senate.

Life After Kids

As I sit here at my computer, my little babe is asleep (with what I may feel be a maximum time of 40 minutes), and I am enjoying a hot coffee. I know. HOT COFFEE. What a mythical thing right? Remember when you would make a coffee and you'd have to wait at least 5 minutes before you could take that first sip and hope that it had cooled enough not to burn your tongue and ruin all coffees for the next 8 hours? Yep. Me too. How times have changed huh?

Before I had a baby (okay, I sound like my mother, and I apologise) but seriously, before I had Willow, everything was different. I worked in a job that consumed all my time: 7 am - 7 pm, six days a week. I would work overtime for no extra pay, and I never complained because, well, I was being paid to support my regular social dinners, umpteen amounts of clothing and credit card debts. I could drop everything at the drop of a hat, take my time to get ready for a night out and walk out the door with my phone and wallet. I'd eat at a normal pace while drinking expensive wine and then head home whenever I felt like it.

Family gatherings were a pain in the butt; I'd make chit-chat, so I didn't have to answer questions about marriage or children. I'd still be getting lectures from my Dad about money, and my Mother would keep reminding me how she used to pay for all my dance classes and costumes, and that I didn't even pursue that career (I mean, if she had seen me on a night out she wouldn't have thought I should).

Catching up with my friends was a priority. They were always up for a night out, a night in, an hour-long phone call, a quick unannounced visit, whatever you were planning, they were up for it. I had HEAPS of friends. Although, now I say friends very lightly, as I got older I realised what having 'friends' really means.

When I fell pregnant with Willow, I felt like nothing had changed. There were still dinners, there was no change in my work hours, and it's like the talks from my parents seemed more hard-hitting. THEN, I had Willow. That's when everything shifted.

I was on maternity leave from work, Willow was only a few weeks old, and work was asking when I would return. It was like my whole mind shifted - my priorities had changed significantly. I could no longer see myself working in a job I didn't like, I couldn't work a 12 hour day anymore and those extra hours I put in just didn't sit well with me.

My little human was now the centre of my universe and my time was to be spent with her; watching her, teaching her and being the best mama to her. Work was not at the top of my list of things to do. Naturally, I needed to work (you know, for bills and sanity) but I wanted to do something I loved and enjoyed, and I needed the flexibility to be with my babe whenever she needed me (which was very much a reality when Willow reached six months). She was my priority.

Going out for dinner and walking out the door is not as carefree as it was. If I am to go out with my friends, I have to make sure that Willow has had dinner, had a shower and ready for the husband to put her to bed before I leave the house. I don't spend as much time getting ready because I've secretly mastered the act of speed makeup and hair. I know exactly what I'm wearing because I've been planning this dinner for a month, so I am SET.

I eat my dinner a little faster than my 'non-mum' friends because I've programmed my brain to eat fast to ensure a 'hot' meal is enjoyed. I still drink wine. I still drink ALL the wine. It's like a mum staple. I don't stay out past 11 pm because I am bloody tired. I haven't slept in 2 years, so 11 pm is like 4 am to me.

Dinner at our parents' places is now a blessing. I don't need to cook, and they love watching Willow so I can relax for an hour. I love watching them as grandparents now (but not so much in the fact that they let my child do what I was never allowed to do... how does that work?). I do still get questioned about having babies (ooo when is number 2 happening - well mother, when I have sex I'll text you and let you know) and money is now put towards school fees for when Willow starts in a few years. I still roll my eyes at my parents, but they don't see anymore, it's more discreet now. I think deep down; it's that I know they are right. I have a new appreciation for what my Mum did for me in regards to dance classes. She really took the time to help me and guide me into something I loved, something I know I will do for my daughter. If she is happy, we are happy.

What about my relationship with my husband? Oh, you mean the guy that I share a bed with while being separated by a mini human we made? Yep. That’s where we are at right now. Time together is GOLD to us. I miss the days where we could lay in bed until 10 am and then head out for lunch, now it's up at 6:30 am because you’re being woken up by a child's finger in your nostril and the smell of morning poop.

The art of ‘The Loving’ must now wait until said child is well and truly asleep, and I mean REALLY asleep. Like, wait at least a good 40 minutes for any ‘haha tricked you parents, I am not even asleep’ situations. You will find places to ‘love’ that you never thought of before, and you just take it when you can. Don’t romance me husband; we have a good 15 minutes, just do your best!

I found it strange when other mamas used to say ‘you will love your man more when you see how he loves your child’, and it’s so true. We both say that we love each other, but we love Willow more. Yes, it’s been hard at times, especially after having our baby. I didn’t want to be touched, and all I had on my mind was my newborn. She took up all of my time but even during that period, Greg and I communicated every step of the way. I guess that is why I was able to really push through post-natal depression because I spoke to him about every feeling and emotion I had. Never let them feel like they can’t help you, or they don’t know what to do or say, they love you and your mini so much, both of you are his world. Talk every single day, about anything and everything. If you can both communicate, trust me, parenthood will be a much more pleasant and calming experience for you both. I mean, he still doesn’t hang his towel or stack the dishwasher correctly, but hey, no one is perfect!

What changed the most for me? My friendships. I lost a lot of friends after having Willow. They didn't disappear suddenly, they kind of just slowly drifted away. It wasn't until I noticed six months had gone by and I hadn't even received a text message. I guess because they didn't have children, they didn't understand that I couldn't go out at the last minute or drop everything for a night out on the town. Once again, priorities changed. I couldn't leave my house at 2 am to pick them up from the club or clean up their vomit (I have a 2-year old to do that for, that's my limit). I quickly realised what a 'real' friend was and that wasn't it. I was a little embarrassed that I was like that.

I appreciate my amazing friends that stuck by me through all of the shit and are still here. I can no longer spend hours on the phone, and they get it. We've gotten to the point now where we love each other for our efficiency. They know we need notice for dinners, visits, events because that shit takes time and planning. They get it and that makes my heart so much fuller because of their friendship and understanding. You make more 'mum' friends because you need support for all the weird, strange and crazy stuff that comes with parenting. It's like a gang. A gang of mothers that reassure each other that they too have dropped food on their babies head and they are totally fine. And for your non-mama friends that are non-related 'aunties', you have the low down on motherhood stuff when they produce little humans (best part is you can say things that others can't, the joys of being besties).

So yeah, everything has changed since becoming a parent. And I'd say for the better! I'm still me, but I'm a better version (with a daughter that sings duets in the car, life goals exceeded). You could say that I'm an amazing mama, just like you x

Hurling and football championship draws take place this evening

Photo © Tipp FM

Anticipation is building across the Premier county ahead of this evening’s county championship draws.

Clubs will know this evening who they will face in the group stages of both the county football and hurling championships.

The draws will take place live on Extra Time here on Tipp FM from 7 o’clock this evening.

Former Tipperary hurler and current JK Brackens senior hurling manager Eamonn Corcoran is among the many looking forward to the draw.

“Everyone likes to know who they’re playing and with the 16 teams there’s no such thing as an easy draw. It doesn’t matter – seed 1 to seed 4 anyone can come through as we saw last year.”

“You’re always waiting to see who you’re going to draw and then you’ll probably do your homework then over the next number of weeks and months at the County League games to see who you’re coming up against and prepare for that.”

“Probably enthusiasm or curiosity more than anything else to know who you’re going to be playing in the championship more so than from a prep point of view.”

Day 3: Lunch dates.

TandoorChef_ChickenTikkaMasala_FullThis afternoon, I had Chicken Tikka Masala fresh from the oven with my husband. He also cooked up some naan (Indian flatbread). It was really good, but the company was even better.
Date nights are kind of hard for our family to accomplish in a practical way so we meet up for lunch. We usually meet at a restaurant near his office or near our home, but this week we had lunch at home. I am thankful for this time to connect to my husband about work and other things that are going on in our lives. It helps me to remember the people we were way back when we were dating. We try to keep conversation away from the kids, but they have been known to slip into a meal or two.

Our major concern is maximizing the performance capability of our clients.  We achieve this by strictly adhering to our values.

For the third time in a row, we are ranked among the best management consultants, especially for the following industry and functional areas:

The ranking is based on the responses of 2,325 consultant colleagues (partners and principals) and a total of 1,505 clients (senior executives such as heads of strategy and business development at DAX, M-, S- and Tec-DAX companies) who have worked with a management consultancy in the past four years.  The ranking is compiled annually by the business magazine brand eins and the data portal statista.

Our Values

Increasing Performance Capability

By combining precision with focus on integrity and increases in sustainable value, maximum performance capability can be achieved—for both clients and consultants. Our main concern is to sustainably improve our clients’ performance capability and competitiveness; this is why we rely on an exchange of expertise and methodological know-how based on intense cooperation with our clients. We draw on creative and unconventional approaches that can be characterized by a systematic recombination of varied elements from different professional fields.

Sustainably Increasing Value

In our recommendations we put the highest emphasis on their long-term impact on value; because of this we always look for and analyze unintended side effects and never sacrifice long-term future robustness for short-term successes. This requires holistic reflections that we implement through our highly-interdisciplinary approach and by considering different perspectives. Irrespective of currently ‘trendy’ topics, we focus on long-term consequences, identify future challenges in good time, and articulate strategies that are built upon these considerations into specific measures that can easily be implemented in daily business.

Being Precise

Our work results are distinguished by the highest quality at all times. We adhere to scientific principles and take the latest scientific insights into account. At the same time, we always keep sight of their relevance and usefulness in practice. Our statements and recommendations are clear, not sugarcoated, and critically-assessed with respect to their feasibility—a ‘no nonsense’ approach.

Behaving with Integrity

Utmost discretion and the highest professional behavior are deeply ingrained in our DNA. We put the interests of our clients above our own (‘client first’). Nevertheless, this does not mean we tell them what they want to hear, but stand firmly behind our independent opinion—in the best interest of the client. We avoid any kinds of conflicts of interests, e.g. accepting similar projects for a competitor of one of our clients.

My Name is Ian Z. McPhee

(627 words)

It was incredible and completely unexpected; the sensations as our fingers touched was electric; my heart skipped a beat and I momentarily forgot to breathe. Her fingers intertwined with mine and she twitched her lips in that funny way she used to, before kissing me tenderly. I gazed into her dark round eyes and knew it was love – deep, sacred love.
We’d been together for six weeks now, not long, but long enough for me to start to get to know her personality: playful yet pensive, jubilant but shy, magnanimous yet fickle. It was wonderful to have a partner again, after having only male company for the best part of a year, and her silky hair and long limbs drew admiring glances from my friends and colleagues.
I’d scarcely known her before she moved in with me. She appeared out of nowhere one day with just a bagful of possessions: a mirror, toiletries and the like. She was so beautiful though, that I couldn’t turn her away. I’ll always remember that she had a bunch of bananas, which we’d laughed about as it’s my favourite fruit.
I didn’t have a job then so we would spend a lot of time together, sometimes kissing and cuddling like all young lovers, but on other occasions watching the television or simply looking out of the window, watching the world go by. On other occasions we passed time in quiet, solitary meditation, which we were both schooled in.
I suppose, looking back, that our life together was rather haphazard, existing day to day, making no plans for the future.
I only saw her angry once. A small boy in a red pullover and jeans stood banging at our window, for no apparent reason as far as I could see. His mother stood nearby with younger siblings, paying scant attention. “Stop it Henry!” she would shout from time to time. There was no sign of a father. My beloved went to the window and pounded on it, matching the boy fist for fist. That seemed to enrage him and he started banging harder and faster. She did likewise, emitting a strange animal-like sound, when suddenly the mother pulled him away and cuffed him hard around the ears. Instantly my love became calm and her normal self again, taking an apple from a bowl and smiling at me sheepishly.

Then, one sad, sad day, our relationship ended. A man in a green uniform with a peaked cap and shiny buttons entered our living area, uninvited. I recognised him as a fruit delivery man so held my tongue.
“Sorry Fred,” he said, although that wasn’t actually my name, “Bella’s got to get on a plane, she’s off to Berlin.” That wasn’t actually her name either. Then other men came in, with a cage on wheels. I protested strongly and loudly. You can’t put her in there! I saw her being given an injection. “Just something to calm her down Fred, nothing to worry about.” The cage door was opened and they manhandled her in.
“Let him say goodbye, bless him,” one of the men said. I went to the cage and looked into her dark round sleepy eyes. I put my hands through the bars and our fingers interlaced for the last time. “Goodbye,” I whispered in our own secret language.
They wheeled her out and I never saw her again. I had no photos, just memories of her to keep. Simple memories – eating fruit together, climbing on a big frame outside and swinging on ropes, watching the crowds watching us, searching each other’s coats for fleas ….
I didn’t know if or when I’d have another mate but in the meantime I decided to eat a banana.

Water Genasi Wizard

Current owner of the Ring of Winter, location unknown

Elbeneve originates from Zakhara, the Land of Fate. She was born to an infertile human couple, who because they could not naturally conceive, made a pact with a Marid for a baby… Along with the water plane touched daughter, he bestowed upon the couple riches and but one task for the girl to complete if and when she becomes of age.

In preparation for the aforementioned task, her training as a Wizard began with the intention of her one day becoming an abjurer. Despite repeated pleas from her parents to be beholden to their intentions, the water genasi’s passions best fit in with the school of transmutation.

Electro disco meltdown!

Electro disco meltdown!

James Murphy and Pat Mahoney's awesome Fabric mix

Known to most as the man behind LCD Soundsystem, James Murphy also runs the DFA Records stable out of New York alongside Tim Goldsworthy. Both self-confessed music freaks, their deep knowledge of dance music in particular has translated into some incredible remixes, and the occasional rare James Murphy DJ set. With a heavy disco and proto-house focus from the beginning, it appears that Murphy is currently obsessing with early '80s electro disco and boogie, as evinced by his astonishing new edition in the Fabric Live series along with long-time DJ affiliate Pat Mahoney, whose original DFA sets as APT in New York City drew on all forms of the funk to keep the crowds bouncing.

'Fabric Live 36 mixed by James Murphy and Pat Mahoney' out 15th October, steers clear of what anyone might expect of a DJ set from the LCD frontman. There's no punk funk for one, and many of the selections are at least 20 years old: in fact, you could say that this latest mix is as far from the Fabric mix blueprint as possible. But digging deep for tracks classic and obscure, Murphy and Mahoney create an incredible groove narrative that you won't be able to resist.

From Donald Byrd's 'Love Has Come Around' and Instant Funk's 'Mind Made Up', to the future electro disco of Daniel Wang and the DFA themselves, it's sometimes hard to spot the join between old and new - which is all part of the fun. Easily one of the best in the series so far, you need to invest in this gem NOW. And if you're not yet convinced, why not check out the launch party on 25th October at Fabric, where James Murphy and Pat Mahoney will be holding court alongside DFA artist Shit Robot. Tickets are priced at £10, with the night running from 10pm – 3am.

Denton Foundation Repair

When you have a water-damaged home or have had something else damage your foundation, you need to call a Denton foundation repair company. Another problem that can cause the foundation to fail is the age of the structure itself. The older the building, the more likely it is that the foundation will crack. Another reason for this is that over time, the pressure of the house can cause a collapse. Foundation damage can create many other problems, and a repair specialist can help.

A professional will assess your home and determine what type of foundation repair is needed. After this assessment they will come up with a list of materials and services that they can use to help your foundation be rebuilt or repaired. This process typically takes a few months to complete. During this time your company will create a schedule of what will be happening to ensure your home will be restored to its former condition.

Some common materials used to build foundations are concrete, masonry, and wood. Each of these materials has its own set of needs and challenges. The repair specialist will talk to you about which of these materials are needed, and how they will be used.

The foundation repair technician will also discuss the types of labor that will be required to fix your home. This team can be from one person to a team of workers. Once the repairs are complete, they can report back to your insurance company that your repair is complete and your home is ready for occupancy.

It may take a few days or a few weeks to be able to start the repairs, depending on material availability, weather, and other factors. During this time, the repair company can help to keep your home safe and sound. Most companies that work on residential buildings also have inspection professionals to inspect the structure regularly to make sure that there are no further leaks or structural issues.

The good news is that you can avoid these problems by not ignoring the problem. While you may have to call in a professional every now and then to get things fixed, you should call in a Denton foundation repair service at least once a year to inspect your foundation for cracks, leaks, and other damage. Doing this will help to prevent costly repairs that may damage other parts of your home as well.

Foundation damage, when gone unchecked, can create issues with plumbing, walls, windows, doors, and more. As these problems get worse they become more dangerous and costly to repair. Broken pipes can make your water bill go up, or even flood the home. Cracked walls can allow heat and air to leak, driving up those costs, and can give pests including mice, rats, and bugs to infest the home.

Call a foundation repair specialist as soon as you see any signs of foundation issues, or at least once per year for an inspection. This will save you valuable time, money, and headache as well as preserve the value of your home. When a foundation is damaged, you have to act fast. Do not wait until it is too late. If you try to wait until you have more issues to deal with, the damage can worsen and it may be impossible to fix.

Torrance Refining Company LLC (TORC), in partnership with the Torrance Unified School District (TUSD), hosted a teacher recognition event on June 7 at its Torrance Refinery to showcase demonstrations of innovative curriculum funded by the company. TORC awarded a total of $100,000 in teacher grants this school year to 38 teachers in the district.

The Torrance Refining Company Innovation Education Grant Program provided funding to enhance classroom curriculum in science, technology, engineering, arts and math, commonly known as STEAM. To qualify for a grant, teachers were required to show a direct link to Design Thinking techniques while incorporating Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards into their curriculum.

“The Torrance community places a high priority on education, and so do we,” said Refinery Manager Steve Steach. “In our refinery environment we experience the value of design thinking daily. Our employees were eager to encourage students to learn using techniques that will help them solve problems through real-world application and support the teachers who can make that happen.”

A grant selection committee comprised of Torrance Refinery employees selected the winning grant proposals from a total of 39 applications.

In addition to teachers and their students, the selection committee members, TUSD school administrators, elected and city officials, and company representatives attended the fun event to congratulate the grant recipients and experience the creative programs made possible by TORC.

Shock As Synagogue Church Of All Nations Confirms Death Of Prophet T.B Joshua

T. B Joshua

The Synagogue Church of All Nations has confirmed the death of Pastor Temitope Balogun Joshua, its founder.

Popularly known as T. B. Joshua, the pastor died at the age of 57.

Reports on the death of Joshua started circulating in the early hours of Sunday but there was no confirmation.

However in a statement on Sunday, the church said he died after a programme on Saturday.

“Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.” – Amos 3:7.”

“On Saturday 5th June 2021, Prophet TB Joshua spoke during the Emmanuel TV Partners Meeting: “Time for everything – time to come here for prayer and time to return home after the service.”

“God has taken His servant Prophet TB Joshua home – as it should be by divine will. His last moments on earth were spent in the service of God. This is what he was born for, lived for and died for.

“As Prophet TB Joshua says, “The greatest way to use life is to spend it on something that will outlive it”.

“Prophet TB Joshua leaves a legacy of service and sacrifice to God’s Kingdom that is living for generations yet unborn.”

The church was silent on the circumstances of his death.

This thematic walk introduce you that specific area of Pest which once gave home for the tiny shops and dwellings of Judaic tradespeople. Later on the quarter gained its “reputation” as Judran ghetto the once extremely poor, then outstandingly wealthy, after all a dilapidated district. Here you can find three synagogues including the second greatest in the world. The serious damage caused by the II. World War still has traces throughout the entire quarter. The urban rehabilitation projects are still under progress but the local youth wanted apparent change. More and more ruinous houses, cellars became famous meeting points where at the beginning the first so called ruined pubs started their operation illegally. Nowadays these places are among the most important tourist attractions for the young and elder visitors as well. These special houses seem to be dilapidated from outside, meanwhile surprisingly elegant pubs can be found inside. The ruined pubs are perfectly suit the traditional Judean Quarter, its kosher restaurants. Be my guest for a walk which seizes the opportunity to introduce the symbiosis of historic and contemporary period in the former Judean Quarter!
