How to be an organised planner in your work at home business

Just starting your business at home. Got everything organised and planned?

Most of us don’t spend as much time as we should looking into how organised we should be. Does it matter? Well I think it does for a number of reasons.

  1. Wasted time is potentially money lost time. If you aren’t doing something which is going to produce money for you then it shouldn’t be done.
  2. If you don’t have  a plan of what you should be doing how do you know if you are going in the right direction and doing the right things?
  3. If you allow yourself to get distracted then you will not be using your time efficiently.

So if we need to be organised what does this mean in reality and how do we know when we are?

What would help is a plan by the day, week, month. It’s not as difficult as it sounds.

With the business it is always good to have  a three month rolling plan – what does this mean? Well we start at the beginning by planning three months out.

A three month plan.

This might be:

Define and research six new niches

Establish three new websites

Set up a local marketing approach

Month by Month Plans

Then you can break this down into what you need to achieve each month and then down into each week, to achieve the month by month plans..

The rolling bit is as follows:

At the end of month one you sit down and review what you achieved from what you intended to achieve. Will you have done everything – probably not, but you might have done something in addition.

So you then look at month two and three and adjust the plan for them based on what you got done in month one.

You also then plan month four which trickles down until you have the weeks worked out.

It does not take long to do this but it gives you a way of judging how much you are doing – how much work is required and whether you are working enough hours each day, to achive your objectives.

After the first three months, some people even before this, you will know what is the right time schedules and what you can do in the time available to you.

So give it a go, and if you need tools – I simply use Errands which is on iPad or you can use windows calendar, both are free and useful.

Humanist aims

To encouraging children to:

  • think for themselves and to learn from human experience.
  • learn about life through openness and co-operation, through experiment and observation, and through free enquiry and discussion.
  • reflect on the meaning and purpose of life, what gives life meaning, and what makes us special.

Education aims

This activity encourages children to develop their thinking, speaking, and listening skills by making the pupils aware of similarities and differences between people. This in turn will help to develop empathy with the feelings of others while further developing their sense of identity and self-worth.

The activity will achieve this by asking them to think about their own situation and then listening carefully to others who may have a different point of view or ideas.

Ask the group to write or draw answers in response to the following statements…

  • Something I really like is…
  • A time I was brave was…
  • Something that makes me happy is…
  • Something that makes me sad is…
  • Something that makes me cross is…
  • Something that makes me upset is…
  • I am special because…

You can get the group to do that in the following ways:

  • You can have a conversation and you write things down.
  • You can ask the pupils to work in small groups.
  • You can ask them to do in alone and then find someone who has the same response as themselves.

Discussion points

Discuss with pupils:

  • how many in the class have the same answers and how many are different;
  • whether it matters that our experiences are different;
  • if we can learn from how people think and behave;
  • and how difference can make us special…

button_request a volunteerHow can a humanist volunteer help?

Following the activity a humanist volunteer might be invited to the class to talk about their life and beliefs.

Topics to themes that they might covered:

  • What is a humanists and how are they different from some people (focussing on a description of key humanist beliefs).
  • ‘When and how did I become a humanist’ (why do some people call themselves humanists?)
  • What does it mean to be a humanist (what do humanists do that is the same as some religious people and what is different).

Humanism for Schools

Humanism is a non-religious approach to life, which the 2013 national framework for RE in England recommends be studied in schools as an example of a 'non-religious worldview'.

Is this new far-right movement really new? No, it isn’t

The international media, which often ignores Hungarian domestic news, immediately perks up when a new far-right group appears on the scene. This is exactly what happened when the Army of Outlaws, a far-right movement led by Zsolt Tyirityán, and a lesser known radical university group called Identitesz, led by the young student Balázs László, gathered in Vecsés, a suburb of Budapest, to announce the formation of a new far-right, radical party they named Erő és Elszántság (Force and Determination). Both Reuters and the Associated Press published reports on the gathering of 200-300 people. According to Reuters, this new movement “looks to be more radical than any political organization targeting a serious political role since the fall of Communism, and uses openly racist language to oppose liberalism and immigration.” The AP report admits that this new formation “seems marginal for now, [though] efforts by the Jobbik party, Hungary’s largest far-right group, to attract more moderate voters could leave room for the growth of extremist groups like Force and Determination.”

Balázs László in Vecsés, July 8, 2017

I’m not sure why the Reuter’s reporter thinks that the ideas expressed by the leaders of this new group are substantially different from those espoused by other right-wing groups and parties. There is nothing new here except perhaps the more radical language with which these ideas are presented. The speakers said that the new party will fight liberalism. The prime minister of Hungary has been fighting liberalism for years and building an illiberal state. The organizers talked about defending white Europeans. The prime minister of Hungary gave long speeches about the defense of Europe as it existed before the migration from outside of the continent. True, he didn’t come right out and speak about “ethnic” or “race” defense, but that is what he meant. They said that they will fight “political correctness.” This is the same thing Viktor Orbán been saying for years about the straight-speaking Hungarians who shouldn’t fall into the destructive habit of political correctness. They talked about the danger of losing awareness of national and sexual identity. How often do we hear the same from Fidesz politicians, including the leader of the party, Viktor Orbán? But interestingly, the attention is on a group that managed to gather 200-300 people for “unfurling the flag of the far right” when the whole country is governed by a politician who espouses essentially the same ideas.

Moreover, there are signs that it is in fact Fidesz that is encouraging these fringe groups to organize themselves against Jobbik. At least it is somewhat suspicious that the government’s main media outlet, Magyar Idők, gave Balázs László of Identitesz the opportunity to acquaint the Hungarian public with his Nazi ideas. Balázs Gulyás, writing in Magyar Nemzet, rightly asked why a newspaper of any standing would publish a lengthy interview with such a person. Because there is no question that we are talking here about an echt Nazi. I saw an interview with him and can attest to the fact that he is a scary guy.

Identitesz is the Hungarian branch of the Identitarian movement, whose goal is “to make racism modern and fashionable.” Otherwise, the movement draws on all sorts of right-wing and conservative thinkers like Oswald Spengler, Carl Schmitt, and Aleksandr Dugin. Identitesz has close ties with the neo-Hungarist/Nazi Pax Hungarica Movement, a successor to Ferenc Szálasi’s Hungarist movement. In fact, László at one time was an active member of Pax Hungarica, to which no Jew, Gypsy, or non-Europid can even apply.

There have been far too many articles in Magyar Idők about these fringe organizations, starting with that lengthy interview with László. He no longer thinks in terms of “national radicalism” but of race defense for Europe as a whole. Just as Viktor Orbán no longer defends only Hungary from outside hordes but, thanks to the Hungarian government’s heroic efforts at closing the Balkan route of the asylum seekers, defends European culture and Christianity.

As for Zsolt Tyirityán’s speech at the Vecsés event, he talked at length about “the struggle for Lebensraum [élettér].” Commentators wondered whether Viktor Orbán will judge all this Nazi talk as severely as he did when a former Jobbik member of parliament used Jewish epithets against a Jewish entertainer. At that time he instructed Sándor Pintér, minister of the interior, to act with the full force of the law against him. So far, all the Nazi talk in Vecsés has been conveniently ignored.

As for the infamous term ‘Lebensraum’, it has been in circulation for years in Hungary. As László Karsai, the historian of the Holocaust, called to my attention today, Viktor Orbán used the term in January 2002 on Magyar Rádió’s notoriously right-wing program Vasárnapi Újság, which at that time he described as his favorite. When an opposition member inquired in parliament about the exact meaning of Lebensraum in this context, Orbán explained that “Lebensraum is that territory where Hungarians live.” Well, this is not different from the way Adolf Hitler used the term.

According to Balázs László, “ethnic defense” is a critical task that must be vigorously pursued. In his opinion, it is more important than matters of education and healthcare. One of the goals of the new movement, he said, is the spread of this truth in public discourse. Again, I don’t see anything revolutionary in this. This is exactly what’s been going on for at least two years in Hungary. Everything, with the possible exception of supporting sports, especially football, is of secondary importance to the defense of the country from those hordes from outside of Europe. Viktor Orbán has been systematically fueling Hungarians’ hatred against the refugees and found in George Soros the embodiment of everything that he is fighting against: humanity, charity, legality.

In brief, let’s not lose sight of the real danger that besets Hungary, Viktor Orbán and his government. Let’s not forget that Orbán’s Hungary is the only country in the European Union where a far-right government is in power which has by now more or less introduced a one-party system, which normally has a very long lifespan.

Russian military intelligence and the Hungarian National Front

I’d wager to say that not too many people are familiar with a far-right paramilitary organization called Magyar Nemzeti Arcvonal (Hungarian National Front or MNA), although it is perhaps the most important group of its kind today. It espouses the tenets of Hungarism, the brainchild of Ferenc Szálasi, leader of the Arrowcross party which, in the late 1930s, had, for a short while, one million followers. The current leader of MNA, István Györkös, who just killed a Hungarian policeman, is the anointed successor of Szálasi.

Szálasi was captured in Germany by the Americans and was sent back to Hungary, where he was executed in 1946. While still in Germany, he passed his mantle to Árpád Henney, a military officer who was a member of his cabinet. Henney served as head of the Hungarist movement abroad until his death in 1980, when he appointed Imre Tatár, a former member of the Koronatanács (Crown Council). Tatár was singularly unsuccessful in holding together the warring Hungarists. He went to Hungary in 1989, hoping to revive the movement on Hungarian soil. It was here that he found István Györkös.

Despite the fact that a whole institute was created to study extremist organizations in Hungary, we still know relatively little about the 76-year-old Györkös. It seems that he was arrested and jailed after the 1956 revolution. In jail he became acquainted with the Hungarist movement through former leaders of the Arrowcross party who were serving time. Until about ten years ago he lived in Győr. He then moved to Bőny, a small village about 20 km from the city. This is where he killed one of the two policemen who came looking for illegal weapons. In the shoot-out he was injured.

Györkös had to be well known to the Hungarian authorities. He was arrested several times in the last 25 years. At one point he even received a suspended jail sentence. The Hungarian police force and the national security establishment had to know that every year Györkös and his group hold a military camp for youngsters in a secluded area, apparently owned by Györkös himself. It is enough to look at a list of their activities between January 2012 and June 2014 compiled by the now defunct Athena Institute. They also had to know that the man might be dangerous. To send two lightly armed policemen against somebody who, as it turned out, was waiting for them with a machine gun shows recklessness on the part of the Hungarian national security forces.

István Györkös in his usual attire

István Györkös in his usual attire

Several small extremist groups are active in Hungary, but MNA is unique in that it has extensive ties with Russian military intelligence. I dealt with this extremist group only once, in September 2014. It was in connection with a lesser-known right-wing portal called Hídfő (Bridgehead), which broke the story that Hungary was secretly supplying tanks to the Ukrainian army. Soon enough the Russian foreign ministry published an official statement stating that “weapons supplied to Ukraine by the EU-member countries … violate legally binding obligations—the Arms Trade Treaty.” The Russian foreign ministry was well-informed on the details: “Hungary’s Defense Ministry is supplying Ukraine with armored vehicles, including T-72 tanks, through a ‘proxy agency.’” It turned out that Hídfő was the official website of Magyar Nemzeti Arcvonal. For some time it has served as a vehicle of Russian disinformation, a growing concern in Europe and elsewhere. In fact, by now, at least according to national security officials, Hídfő is entirely under Russian direction, either directly or indirectly. The best summary of the history of MNA and its activities can be found in an investigative piece written by András Dezső and Veronika Munk of Index.

The news site also published an article by András Dezső and Szabolcs Panyi which claims that officials of the Russian military intelligence, Glavnoe Razvedivatelnoe Upravlenie or GRU, established contact with MNA and other right-wing groups in the last few years. Apparently Russian diplomats often come in contact with these extremists at shows of military relics. According to information received by Index, the youngsters recruited by Györkös often play airsoft, which is similar to paintball. The weapons they use look and feel real, so real that they are used for military training. Apparently Russian diplomats have been attending some of these games. As for Hídfő, by now it carries practically no news on MNA but only serves Russian political interests.

Index also reported back in February 2015 that the reason for a split between the Hungarist groups was Györkös’s overly friendly relations with Gyula Thürmer’s Munkáspárt (Labor party; actually the tiny Hungarian Communist party), something that Thürmer didn’t want to talk about. But at least one photo exists showing that already in 2012 the Communist party and Györkös were on a common platform. I may add here that Gyula Thürmer’s son, who calls himself Gyula T. Máthé, is one of the important columnists at Magyar Hírlap. Here is his latest. What grows together belongs together, as the Hungarian saying goes.

And let’s return to the village of Bőny. HVG’s reporter visited the village and asked inhabitants their opinion of Györkös and what was going on in their village. They didn’t know the head of MNA well because he wasn’t the outgoing type, they said, but he looked “normal and respectful.” The military camps he organized for youngsters didn’t bother them. Since it was forbidden to drink in the camp, there were no signs of drunken marching militarists. According to one woman, “they were 20-25 years old and behaved very well. They looked like young commandos.”

A reporter from the pro-government Magyar Idők also paid a visit to Bőny. He gained an entirely different impression of the mood of the inhabitants, who are “relieved” because they have been “living in dread.” His informants agreed that Györkös was unsociable, so “everybody thought he was strange and many were afraid of him.” Everybody knew that he had guns. Apparently one could occasionally hear gunshots coming from his place. Magyar Ik’s reporter learned from a woman living in the village that several times a year Györkös organized military camps, which on occasion several hundred extremists attended. Their presence raised fear in the locals. But if that was the case, how is it possible that no one went to the police to report that Györkös had illegal weapons and that the youngsters carried flags with forbidden symbols?

Origo, which in the last few months has become just another mouthpiece of the government, published an article about MNA with the title: “Magyar Nemzeti Arcvonal: Several ties to Jobbik.” The title is misleading. There is no question that Jobbik had connections to some of the extremist groups, but MNA was not among them. I guess Fidesz wants to drown out all the information that is coming from independent sources about the connection between Putin’s Russia and István Györkös’s MNA.

Viktor Orbán and the “Christian-National Idea”

“Christian and national.” These two concepts are frequently bandied about by Viktor Orbán. Every time I hear him talking about these concepts in such glowing terms I wonder whether he is aware of the meaning of the “keresztény-nemzeti eszme” or Christian-National Idea. I also wonder whether he ever contemplates the contradiction inherent in coupling these two terms. After all, Christianity is considered to be a universal, supranational concept while “national” is a notion applicable to the particular. This is especially true for the Catholic Church, which even carries the idea of universality in its name.

I also wonder whether non-Hungarians fully understand the true meaning of the term in the Hungarian historical context. Most likely not. The “Christian-National Idea” was the dominant ideology of the Horthy era, and therefore the use of the term should be avoided. Opinions on the nature of the Horthy regime may vary, but I think it is universally acknowledged that it was an authoritarian system that granted only limited political rights to its citizens. Surely, returning to the ideals and practices of such a regime in the name of democracy is more than bizarre and retrograde. It is incompatible with Hungary’s membership in the European Union.

But the notion of the Christian-National Idea should be avoided for another reason: historically, in the Hungarian context, “Christian” meant not someone who professes belief in Jesus as Christ and follows a religion based on his teachings but someone who is “not Jewish.” Strengthening the Christian middle class, which was one of the Horthy regime’s aims, meant preventing the social and economic advancement of Hungarian Jews by blocking their way to higher education.  During the interwar years the churches enthusiastically assisted in the propaganda of the Christian-National Idea and, as the historian Miklós Szabó put it, “they allowed the name of Christianity to be used as a cover-up for anti-Semitism.”

I find it odd that a government that vehemently protests every time it is accused of being anti-Semitic would turn to the Christian-National Idea, one of whose most important elements was anti-Semitism. The other components were revisionism, anti-liberalism, anti-communism, and conservatism. Under the present circumstances revisionism is out of the question, but Orbán and his fellow politicians in Fidesz solved that problem by the “virtual unification of the nation” across borders. To demonstrate the idea of a nation one and indivisible, among the Fidesz European Parliamentary members there are four ethnic Hungarians from outside of Hungary: from Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, and Serbia. The other two components of the Christian-National Idea–anti-liberalism and anti-communism–are at the core of the present Hungarian political system. Conservatism, however, has been replaced by a far-right ideology with many references to the peaceful revolution in 2010. Just as a commentator said the other day, it matters not whether the prime minister of Hungary is Viktor Orbán of Fidesz or Gábor Vona of Jobbik. Their ideologies are indistinguishable.

Viktor Orbán’s references to nation, nationalism, and Christianity are abundant, and here I would like to quote only a few that I find most jarring. About a year ago he claimed that “Christian culture is the unifying force of the nation.” It gives “the inner essence and meaning of the state.” And he added that “that’s why we declare that Hungary will either be Christian or not at all.” Or, here is another take on the theme: Hungarians are Europeans not because Hungary is geographically part of Europe but again “because we are Christians.” I won’t even try to make sense of all this, although such ideas even got into the preamble to the Fidesz constitution of 2011: “We recognize the role of Christianity in preserving nationhood.”

Vktor Orbán's view of the world

Vktor Orbán’s view of the world

By now, as we learned from Viktor Orbán’s speech at Kötcse, the Christian-National Idea is a political creed that he wants to apply to the whole of Europe. The refugee crisis offered Viktor Orbán an opportunity to lead a movement that will replace the liberal blah blah with the Christian-National Idea. I very much doubt that anything will come of Viktor Orbán’s ambitious dreams, but I must say that it would be an interesting twist of fate if the reactionary Horthy regime’s Christian-National Idea became the dominant ideology of the future European Union.

Just like Horthy during the interwar period, Orbán found enthusiastic supporters for his Christian-National Idea among the church leaders. The most important clerical spokesman for the state ideology of the Horthy regime was Ottokár Prohászka (1858-1927), an early representative of Christian socialism. Because of Prohászka’s vicious anti-Semitism, the Catholic Church didn’t promote his ideas after 1945, some of which were actually quite progressive socially. Since 1990, however, the Catholic Church has embarked on a rehabilitation of Prohászka. By now numerous schools are named after him, and his statues and busts are all over the country. He was the one, by the way, who coined the word “Hungarism” that later was used by Ferenc Szálasi to describe his Hungarian style of national socialism. His writings are full of references to the necessity of a Christian-national Hungary that must battle against Jewish influences that would, left unchecked, lead to the destruction of the nation. Prohászka was one of the forces behind the introduction of the numerus clausus of 1920 that fixed the Jewish presence in higher education at 5%.

In brief, the Christian-National Idea is a loaded concept full of the worst instincts of the Hungarian far right, going back at least a century. There are a number of commentators who claim that Viktor Orbán and his cohorts have no definable ideology. They have only one aim: to remain in power. They adjust their propaganda accordingly. They are simple populists. The recurring theme of the “Christian and National Idea,” however, indicates to me that they wittingly or unwittingly sympathize with the ideology of the Hungarian far right of the interwar period, an ideology that bore striking resemblances to fascism and national socialism.

Christmas Gift Ideas

At a loss for Christmas gift ideas? We all have plenty of items taking up space. It can be hard to come up with gifts that will be useful and not take up more space in our homes with so many things already. Why not give just the opposite – the gift of space.

Surprise your loved one this Christmas with a room makeover, home addition, or renovation. Maybe there’s that room that you’ve always wanted to renovate but you’ve just put it off. What about the remodel you’ve been wanting to do for a while but haven’t moved forward on it? Now could be the time!

Have a Merry Christmas

There’s always more to do, more places to go, and more tasks to finish. Take time this season to enjoy the quiet moments with family and friends. There’s nothing like setting aside a time for quiet reading with Christmas music in the background and a hot drink to keep you warm!

Ways the Integrity Team Can Help With Christmas Gift Ideas

We love helping our clients come up with the perfect solution to their dream home. Maybe it’s just a one room renovation that will make a big difference. Or maybe it could be an entire home addition. Whatever your needs are, we are here to help make them a reality. We love coming up with ideas that will offer creative solutions to your construction needs. And when it comes to the Christmas season, remember that gifts come in all sizes – even creative gifts like an addition or renovation!

Jack Calisher outside his lumber mill, circa 1878.

Pocket Missions

Recognize this street? Well, you should. You died here in a gunfight in 1878, and that wasn’t the first or last time you died, but it’s an easy Past Life to remember, because the trauma was so strong. It wasn’t that big a deal to die — here you still are to tell the tale. “Death Row” was the name given to this Old West “Main Street” that saw over 100 gunfights in its day.

That’s one thing about death that people don’t generally realize. Death is not permanent. In fact, death is so damn impermanent, it’s a pain in the ass, and I’ll explain why. You finally get the hang of a life you’re living, and wham! Along comes Death to wreck the show … but wait, weren’t you just barely crawling along, whizzing around in a wheelchair with a bottle of oxygen and a long clear plastic tube.

So how would you like to remember this death? You’d rather not re-experience a death? I don’t blame you, death is never pleasant, although it can be a great relief if you’re in terrific unbearable and unrelenting pain. Still, it’s not something we naturally seek, nor are we intended to. You’re here to do a job because you can. You were born with the ability to carry out your work mission. Whether you do it or decide to whack off for your whole life is entirely up to you.

Be in style when you travel the Nile in our virtual Ashram where you can re-live past lives.

You travel along with the rest of your Soul Group whether you earn your way or are dragged along by the momentum of the others. The choice of gracefully performing your Essence Tasks or going through life kicking and screaming and bitching and griping about how unfair it all is is, again, entirely up to you.

If you intend to carry out your Work Mission here on Earth, you need to get a grip on yourself.

What I mean is, you need to have a bigger footprint, meaning an awareness of other lives you’ve lived, and technically, are living right now, because time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so.

After a few Pocket Missions, you’ll wonder why you were ever afraid of death, afraid of life and afraid of failing. You’ve lived and died and succeeded and failed, and here you still are to tell the tale. That’s the bottom line. Here you are to tell the tale.

When you tell the tale, the memories will come flooding back, and you’ll remember that past life or parallel life in one sweeping flash, then details will start coming back to you as you write your way through the Pocket Mission.

Here’s how it works:

You contact 10 different time-frames in a past or parallel lifetime. These are in the form of one-ended Wormhole Photos that connect you instantly with the past or parallel life. You describe the photos one at a time as instructed in the Mission Pak — the instructions will vary.

By the end of the exercise, you will have fully contacted that lifetime. You now have access not only to the memories, but also to ALL of the skills acquired in that lifetime. That’s how come I have been able to have over 100 complex professions and skills in this lifetime alone, and a quick glance at my bio will prove it, and in a way, those are my credentials, because nobody has the time to perfect that many skills in one lifetime, and I didn’t — I draw from hundreds of different lifetimes and thousands of other lifetime skills as easily as one might ride a bicycle or fish out the correct change on a crosstown bus.

We use photographs and screenshots to connect up to our parallel and past lives, and with the help of your Quantum Witch or PSL Amulet, you’re off to explore other worlds, other galaxies, other lifetimes.

We can use the screenshot technology to recover contact images in other dimensions and in worlds totally unlike the reality you’re used to seeing. Here’s one example:

Having a bit of a rest on a convenient throne at the Alternate Universe Dark Mall in the virtual Ashram

Give it a break, you’d never find that shot as a photo in your Mom’s scrapbook. It’s a mockup in virtual space of a space that you can’t get to from here because it’s millions of light-years away from where you are now, and long-gone. That civilization died out 4.3 billion years ago, about the same time this solar system was formed.

You want to see the power of screenshots? Okay, take a lookie here:

Station KGOD AM & FM is everywhere on your dial — just try to turn us off!!!

This radio station would cost half a million to install, just for a photograph? You gotta be nuts. The obvious solution is to create it in cyberspace and screenshot the thing, which is what I’ll be doing with the past-life and alternate reality images.

I’ll also use direct time-space triggers, things that were actually there at the time, when available. For instance, for a Past Life Survey into ancient Greece, I might include this snapshot of a rare ancient terra-cotta antiquity in my collection of “Reading Artifacts” that contain ancient knowledge which can be tapped into and used for interdimensional voyaging and time-travel, such as the Pocket Missions into the past and future.

Future travel? Sure, why not? From here, everything in every other time zone is “past”.

It’s mind-bendingly simple. Imagine a donut-shaped universe. Now totally flatten it out like a Mercator Projection. If you don’t know what a Mercator Projection is, CLICK HERE.

No, there’s no hot link there, nothing but letters on a page. I just wanted you to be aware of how utterly programmed you are, and how silent, how deadly and how innocently, step by step, this happened without your consent and without your knowledge.

Sometimes it just sneaks up on you and grabs you by the scruff of the neck!

Judy was a Bunny, then a Bunny Mother, then a mother, now she’s a grandmother, what are the odds? Believe me, she’s just as surprised as anyone at how fast the time flies, whether you’re having fun or not. Judy was never as young as she looks.

In order to trigger an ancient Greek experience, I might use, as I said earlier, something along these lines:

This is a local craftsperson on a small island, not a major sculptor, and the period is just following the Archaic Period, but already the archaic style mouth is starting to straighten from that well-known archaic smile; this was made about 535 B.C. at the workshop of Kyton on the island of Lesbos, located by dowsing by … guess who remembered one of her earlier lives and pointed to where it had to be, even after all these years. You think I’d actually BUY a piece of junk like that? It’s mine, as in I made it.

I’m a much better sculptor now, thanks to my sculpture teachers over the past dozen or so centuries, especially Renzo Fenci, who taught be classical technique, which I use to create my modern bronzes, which I’ll show you some other time. In the meanwhile, I wanted to show you some “trigger” images that might help you remember a past life you lived.

This is a lifetime impression of Alexander III — “The Great”, with a rearing, galloping battle-horse, Alexander’s arm raised, ready to cast a spear. The rarity of a lifetime portrait of Alexander in a pottery vessel shard is astonishing, to say the least. Just try to find something like this at any price. Merely touching this item will bring back any and all memory of the events, and seeing a photo, with the correct triggering mechanisms in place, can give you access to past life impressions.

Even without the triggering mechanisms, I know you will have at least a few flashbacks.

These are just a few examples of the many ways we can trigger past life memories for recording and accessing of past-life skills and knowledge.

Contact me for more information, and don’t forget to keep up your reading on for more about this technique of accessing past and parallel lives.

A pause to play... Ayo

"every colour of my world thats what you are
like a lion rules the jungle
you rule my heart

and only you can have my soul
oh... you can have it all"

There are times, like last week, when I feel like sharing music I've loved for long, music dear to my heart for all the memories it bring me.

And there are times when I get surprised by a new song and, even if it doesn't mean much yet, I feel like sharing it, just because it makes me feel good listening. This is one I've been listening on repeat lately. I've heard of this lady before, but just never had listened carfully. I have a feeling I'll be listening much more of her in the future. Make a pause to play it!

Artist: Ayo
Song: Only you
Check out the whole series of thursday's pause to play

Targeting in practice- Learning by doing

On March 13, IFAD’s Technical Advisory Division organised a lunch-time seminar on “Practical experiences in targeting” delivered by Clare Bishop-Sambrook. Clare has worked as a consultant for IFAD for almost 10 years, and also for FAO, CIDA and SIDA. In recent years she has been applying IFAD’s operational framework for Targeting to different types of projects or programmes and at different phases of the project cycle. Her work has generated new learning on targeting, as well as new tools. Marian Bradley, Country Programme Manager for Malawi, and previously for Uganda and Kenya described the context in which Clare’s fieldwork was undertaken in East and Southern Africa.
Clare reminded participants up-front that targeting the poor is clearly perceived by other development actors as an IFAD trade-mark. She gave a brief overview of IFAD’s three-pronged framework for targeting:

  1. Gender-sensitive poverty and livelihood analysis.
  2. Developing the targeting strategy (using a combination of measures: geographic targeting; self-targeting through activity selection; direct targeting; capacity-building and empowerment; paying attention to procedural measures; creating and sustaining an enabling environment for targeting.
  3. Monitoring targeting performance.

During the presentation, she demonstrated the targeting tools of wealth ranking and pyramids, component analysis, a targeting strategy and a targeting matrix. She gave examples of: how IFAD was able to give a “pro-poor twist” to a large multi-donor funded irrigation project in Malawi; an actor analysis of a groundnut and Irish potato value-chains showing the different socio-economic categories involved at different nodes in the value-chain; and a similar “pyramid” applied to analysis of targeting performance in a livelihoods support project in Uganda. A targeting risk she highlighted is the tendency for women to loose out to men as value is added to their produce. She also spoke of the “household mentoring” approach used in a SIDA project in Zambia: the method increases the possibility of connecting households who might otherwise be excluded or self-exclude themselves to development opportunities.

The following are some points raised at this gathering:

  • Should we use the category “economically active poor”? Some argued that it was too broad, and that unless totally disabled all should be considered “active”; others argued that it indicates whether people can be considered as economic actors in the true sense, it reflects their degree of connectedness to markets.
  • Investing in agriculture is recognised as giving the best value for money, but not necessarily investing in the very poor. So the question is how to increase the likelihood that the very poor will benefit, whether directly (and here IFAD’s emphasis on capacity-building and empowerment are important) and indirectly, e.g through increased – and more ‘decent’- rural employment. There has to be a combination of “trickle-up”, “trickle-down” and “trickle-across”…
  • IFAD should however be careful to stay focused on its targeting mandate. IFAD’s targeting performance has been declining.
  • The targeting policy emphasises the need for ‘targeted actions’ to identify activities and services that are relevant to specific categories of people.
  • There was interest in household mentoring approach, but questions were raised as to its cost and sustainability, suggesting the need for further research. It is being piloted in a project in Uganda and possibly in Malawi.
  • The benefits of quantitative versus qualitative methods for poverty analysis were also discussed. Marian Bradley noted that for reasons of cost for project design, qualitative and participatory research is usually sufficient, which if done professionally and with proper triangulation of information generates information which is equally reliable and, in fact, often more pertinent. However, the development of the new COSOP for Uganda has been underpinned by a quantitative study of poverty in the principal agro-ecological zones in the country.

It was concluded that we need to keep sharing experience and learning about targeting. It isn’t an exact science, we have to learn by doing and keep focused on the objective, which is to benefit those who are at the bottom of the ladder. We have to be innovative in the instruments we use, and the partnerships we mobilise.

Our targeting website will soon come live where you will find case-studies, tools and guidelines. . If you have comments on this entry, experiences or lessons learned to share, please contribute to the blog!

Omer said…
... I believe we need to broaden our policies and practices on targeting ... we seem to focus excessively on direct targeting with the aim of transforming the poor into risk-taking entrepreneurs ... field reality does not convincingly demonstrate that this actually reduces poverty in a sustainable manner ... perhaps we should increase focus on creating jobs ...

Mesothelioma Claim Against Employer Filed Too Late Despite Disease Latency

The Illinois Supreme Court recently barred a plaintiff’s mesothelioma claim against an employer based on the time limitations set forth in the Workers’ Compensation Act and the Workers’ Occupational Diseases Act.  The claim was barred despite the fact that the plaintiff was not diagnosed with the disease until 16 years after the expiration of those time limits.  In Folta v. Ferro Engineering, the plaintiff was exposed to products containing asbestos as a result of his job responsibilities as a shipping clerk and product tester for his employer, Ferro Engineering.  Forty-one years later, plaintiff was diagnosed with mesothelioma, a disease associated with asbestos exposure.  One month later, he sued fifteen defendants, including his employer, to recover damages for the disease.

The issue was whether the plaintiff’s claim was barred by Illinois requirements that applications for workers’ compensation relating to asbestos exposure must be filed within twenty-five years after the employee was exposed to asbestos-containing products.  The practical problem was that, because of the latency of the plaintiff’s disease, the Illinois requirements precluded the plaintiff from recovering compensation benefits or even filing an application for benefits because the disease was not diagnosed until well after the limitation periods expired.

The court held that the plaintiff’s claim against the employer was barred because the plain language of the statutes provided an absolute bar on the right to bring a claim after twenty-five years.  The court found that the limitations statutes were “statutes of repose”, and the purpose of those statutes was to terminate the possibility of liability after a defined period of time.  The court also found that the plaintiff’s lack of fault for not filing a claim sooner due to the nature of the disease is not a relevant consideration:  “Although the statute barred [plaintiff’s] claim before it had yet accrued, that is the purpose of such a provision.”

The court stated that it was not its duty to address the “harsh result” in this case, but put the responsibility for changing the statutes squarely on the shoulders of Illinois General Assembly:  “Nevertheless, ultimately, whether a different balance should be struck under the acts given the nature of the injury and the current medical knowledge about asbestos exposure is a question more appropriately addressed to the legislature.  It is the province of the legislature to draw the appropriate balance.  It is not our role to inject a compromise, but, rather, to interpret the acts as written.”

This is a big win for manufactures and other companies that face asbestos-related lawsuits.  Had the Supreme Court found in favor of the plaintiff in this case, this would have resulted in a massive expansion of the time period in which employers could face asbestos-related workers’ compensation claims.  This case does not impact claims against asbestos defendants that are not employers of plaintiffs, however, and it remains to be seen whether the Illinois General Assembly will actually change the statutes to allow plaintiffs to sue employers in the fashion that the plaintiff wanted to do in this case.  Given the political turmoil currently in Illinois government, it is unlikely that the General Assembly will make such a change at this time or in the near future.

More top tips for saving on your energy bills

saving energyWe’ve heard a lot of chatter in the media lately about cost of living, and we’re sure there are some Mudgee residents feeling the pinch.  Last week we gave you a few tips on how to reduce your energy bills and we promised there would be more.  Well, as promised, here is our second instalment of energy saving tips, that will not only save you money on your next energy bill, but they’re also incredibly easy!

Here are a few of our favourite tips for cutting energy costs in the kitchen:

  1. Close the fridge door!  Keeping your refrigerator door closed for as long as possible can help to save up to 7% on your fridge’s energy consumption.  Saving money has never been so easy.  All you have to do is decide what you want before you open the fridge door… simple, right?!  How many times have you hovered in front of an open refrigerator door mentally preparing various snacks before making your selection?  The energy you’ll save by avoiding these practices could amount to as much as running your dishwasher 20 times or your washing machine 50 times, according to the Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences at the University of Florida.
  2. Only boil the water you need.  When you’re making a hot drink, don’t fill the kettle.  In fact, you shouldn’t have water left over in the kettle once you’ve made your drink.  Boiling excess water each time you make a hot drink requires your kettle to use extra energy at each use.  Most kettles have a guide on their side to show you the water level needed to make your required number of drinks.  Use it.
  3. Unlike your kettle, your dishwasher should be filled at every use.  Most of the energy used by a dishwasher goes towards heating the water. Since you can’t decrease the amount of water used per cycle, you’ll avoid wasting energy by filling your dishwasher to get the most from the energy used to run it.

There are just a few of the things Mudgee residents can do to help reduce energy wastage in your home and help cut your energy bills.  If you know of other energy saving tips we’d love to hear them.  Please share your thoughts here, and stay tuned for more energy saving tips coming soon.

October hexies

I know, I am very late.... but I have finally finished my flowers for Gemma who was my partner for October. They will be on their way on Monday and because we live in the same country... hopefully they shouldn't take to long to get to her!
I will now get started on my November hexies even though the month is nearly over. Better late than never!
Sadly, I haven't received my August and October flowers so far.

Weekend Successes--aka The Longest Post Ever

I am actually putting off writing a fitness-y health kick type post, which isn’t so much “health kick” as it is “I need to be cured of this acid reflux once and for all and that means avoiding my triggers for 3 to 6 months to give my whateverthehell time to heal”. If I don’t write it, I don’t have to do it, right? Not really, but I need another day to collect my thoughts on the topic. So there’s that.

This past weekend I had 2 successes in the kitchen. The first was the amazing pasta dish I threw together on Saturday. I was reading Food Lush last week and came across this post. Cheese, chicken, bacon, pasta, and ranch. It sounded good, but I wasn’t sure that Hub would be on board. He can be weird about flavors melding together. I pitched it though, and he was all for it. When it came time to cook , I didn’t have my mini laptop handy and for some reason, I couldn’t get to the recipe on my phone, so I decided to wing it. Everyone knows I never actually follow the recipe anyway. I did, after tasting the finished product, make a note of what I did though so I could replicate it in the future. It was so delicious! I ate it with gusto. (I’ll add the recipe to the end of this post)

On Sunday, we made cutout cookies. Cutouts stress me out more that decorating the tree. There are children doing what they are not supposed to be doing. There is a mess. My dough never works. It is a trifecta of error. We’re working on being more calm around here though, so I approached the cookies calmly, even though I started them later than I had wanted to and Hub was griping that the basement was never going to get clean. The first thing I did was look up a new cookie dough recipe. The one I use from my Betty Crocker cook book calls for both powdered and granulated sugar. The cookies are always very sweet, and I think the powdered sugar is what makes the dough crumbly. I did a little bit of searching and ended up going with the simplest recipe that got the best reviews from All Recipes. This is the one. I don’t know if it is because of the 4 eggs, or what the deal was, but these cookies were so easy to put together. And when it came time to roll, after chilling for a few hours, I had no issues. The dough rolled like a dream and cut well. I was in awe.

And here is what else I did to east my stress. Rather than sitting 3 kids down at the table and making it a cookie cutter grabbing free for all, I rolled and cut cookies with each of the kids separately. It was delightful. There was no fighting. It was perfect. I enjoyed spending the time with them! I followed suit with the decorating, though Bud and Lucy were able to do theirs together and mostly on their own while I made dinner. I have never been more relaxed during a holiday activity.

There are no photos of the actual rolling process, but here are some from decorating. You can see that Liv really had a thing for eating the frosting and not so much decorating. Hub took the ones at the end, and even though I look like…well like I was baking all day, I like them. I love when I can make things work for our family.

(These were all taken with my phone which is why the lighting looks a bit wonky)

Finally, here is my recipe for the chicken bacon ranch pasta bake. This made enough to feed my family of 5 with leftovers for 3 lunch portions. Even my super picky eater declared that he "liked the pasta and even the chicken was good"! (He picked out all the bacon. Because he is not my son.) We served it with steamed broccoli and garlic bread.

1lb rotini noodles, cooked and drained
½ lb bacon, cooked and crumbled
3-4 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
4 tbsp butter
4 tbsp flour
2-3 cups dairy liquid of your choice. (I used a mix of milk and half and half)
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
3 tbsp ranch powder
1 tbsp Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic (this is my secret ingredient in EVERYTHING)
Salt and pepper to taste
Extra cheese for sprinkling on top

1. Melt butter in a large sauce pan. Add flour and stir, cooking until bubbly.
2. Add in 2 cups of your dairy liquid. Stir with a whisk constantly until it comes to a teeny boil and thickens.
3. Add the ranch powder (I noticed that the ranch powder thickened the sauce a bit, which is why I say 2-3 cups of dairy—you may need to add some more in this step)
4. Remove from heat and stir in cheese a little bit at a time until all melted and combined
5. Stir in the Garlic Garlic, salt and pepper
6. In a large bowl, or in your noodle pot if you are me, combine noodles, cheese mixture, bacon and chicken. Stir until all noodles are coated
7. Transfer to a baking dish and top with extra cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes or until it is good and bubbly.

Make this. Your life will be changed.

Thank you for your recipe! I am going to make it this weekend!

LOVE the photos of the kids decorating - so cute!

Misty said...

Oh, I am in awe of you and your cutouts. I have cutout performance anxiety. They never come out like my aunt's cookies, which are the best in the universe. Kind of like a firmer version of those yummy cookies in the supermarket with a ton of colored frosting on top? They are Litehouse brand here. Yum-o.

My cut outs are always too thick or too thin or uneven/underdone/overbaked. But I love to decorate these. Why don't you bake them for me and I will be the kid putting on the icing and M&Ms.

Nowheymama said...

That sounds so good! It reminds me of this crockpot bacon cheeseburger chicken that we love. (We use dairy-free ranch and set K's aside before adding the cheese.):

CAQuincy said...

I wonder if that recipe would work around here. I can tell you right off that only 2/3 would even try it as the eldest refuses to eat anything with melted cheese on it. And she's not a big fan of bacon. No, she's not my kid.

Now I'm hungry.

I've noticed a big difference between the cut-out recipe I got from my mother and the one in my cookie cookbook. My mother's rolls much smoother. I think it's because hers doesn't take real butter.

Speaking of butter, I did try the "One cookie, Six ways" recipe in Parenting magazine this month (it takes 2 sticks!), and only had problems rolling out the batch that I let chill overnight.

Tess said...

Health kick poooooost! I am so excited for health kick season. I can't even.

Also, I loved "liquid dairy of your choice". Heh.

Nik-Nak said...

Put off the health kick post. It'll make me feel better, ha!

I Recipe sounds awesome!!

Mrs. Irritation said...

At first I think "how can anyone NOT like bacon?" then I think "more for me!!"

Doing My Best said...

Mmm, I need to get some Ranch powder!!

StephLove said...

Congrats on your cookie success. It sounds like a change of recipe and the innovation of kid turning-taking did the trick!

I'm hoping to make gingerbread some time before Christmas but I'm not sure when we'll manage it.

Afterglow Jazz and American Popular Song

Recent Releases 2017, Part 2

Highlights of new records by Gregory Porter, Cécile McLorin Salvant, and Dee Dee Bridgewater.

Photo: Album Cover

Gregory Porter's latest album for Blue Note is a tribute to the songs of Nat King Cole, sung with a big band.

This week on the show, I’m presenting you with Part II of our new releases show for 2017, looking at the latest in vocal jazz and traditional pop.

This hour, I highlight some new records by Grammy winners Cecile McLorin Salvant, Gregory Porter, and Dee Dee Bridgewater. Salvant’s latest is a double-disc set called Dreams And Daggers, combining live recordings at Village Vanguard with studio recordings. Porter’s latest album is a tribute to the songs of his idol Nat King Cole, and his most traditional album to date. And Dee Dee Bridgewater’s latest album called Memphis…Yes I’m Ready is her most rock/soul-oriented album to date, looking at the music of her hometown of Memphis.

I also highlight a new vocal tribute to bebop legend Charlie Parker, featuring vocalese versions of Parker’s tunes sung by Kurt Elling and more, chronicling the life of Parker. Plus, I explore the latest trend in arranging for traditional pop standards, which seems to draw a good deal of inspiration from Nelson Riddle.

Don’t forget to check out Recent Releases 2017, Part 1, looking at new music by Diana Krall, Chris Thile, Jazzmeia Horn, and more.
