X Factor
The judges' guest mentors and glam locations have been revealed.

Pop star Nicole Scherzinger will be taking her group of X Factor hopefuls to the tropical paradise of Antigua for the judges' houses round of the singing competition, it has emerged.

According to The Sun, the X Factor judges will be racking up the air miles to take the solo female contestants to the exotic locations for the new series.

While Scherzinger is heading to the sun, the boys will be jetting to the south of France with Louis Walsh, Gary Barlow and the groups are headed for New York City, and Sharon Osbourne will put the over 25s through their paces in her adopted city of Los Angeles.

"Once again the bosses have pulled out all the stops and have chosen some glamorous locations for judges' houses", a show insider told the publication.

"It's always a head-scratcher each year to think of somewhere that will have a great backdrop to film this crucial stage against.

''We've never done the sky-scrapers of Manhattan, so that will be a huge treat for the groups.

''And Antigua speaks for itself - lush palm trees and perfect white sandy beaches.''

Scherzinger is expected to enlist the help of US R'n'B star Mary J. Blige, while Walsh - who recently announced his departure from the show - is understood to have landed two assistants in the form of Sharon's daughter Kelly Osbourne and Westlife's Shane Filan.

An X Factor spokesman said: ''We have yet to confirm details of the judges' houses.

''The first people we will tell will be the contestants.''

The X factor starts on ITV1 later this month.

83rd Annual Academy Awards Prediction by Meltwater Group

The social media monitoring group, Meltwater has made a second attempt to calculate the infographic of who will win the Academy Awards tonight and although, their prediction of The Grammys didn’t work out so well, the show must go on. According to their analysis, James Franco would most likely win the Best Actor Award, Natalie Portman as the Best Actress, and the Best Picture would go to The King’s Speech.

This prediction is gathered from all the information that has been put out on various social media network such as Facebook and Twitter. The infographics provided by Meltwater Group predicts the winners from the social media buzz, it makes me wonder what would happen if these prediction turns out to be accurate. Does that mean more people are on Facebook and Twitter including the Academy Awards’ voting members?

The folks at Webtrends also released a similar predictions for the Academy Awards Winners sourcing the mentions of the nominees and really rank which one is buzzing more than the other. If only these infographics are available for the football games now that Paul, The Octopus is gone. Who do you think will win the Academy Awards?

State Health Department Hosts 21st Annual HIV/STD Conference: “At the Crossroads”

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) opened the 21st annual HIV/STD Conference today in Springfield with a condom awareness and distribution campaign designed to decrease the rate of sexually transmitted diseases and new HIV infections in Illinois.

The Illinois “Save Lives, Condomize” campaign is part of a global initiative spearheaded by the United Nations Population Fund and The Condom Project to reduce stigma associated with condom use, and to increase universal access to quality condoms, sexual health education and community mobilization supporting condom use. Condoms are 95 percent effective in preventing STDs and also provide protection against pregnancy.

“At a time when the rates of some sexually transmitted diseases are rising, and rates of new HIV infection are still high in Illinois, our ‘Save Lives, Condomize’ campaign is greatly needed and will be very effective in decreasing STDs and HIV,” said IDPH Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck. “Outside of abstinence, latex condoms are still the most effective and least expensive barrier to STDs and HIV.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that about 1 in 5 of the 1.3 million Americans living with HIV are unaware that they are infected. Illinois ranks 7th nationwide in the diagnosis of HIV infections, and is 5th nationwide in the estimated number of AIDS cases. Adolescents and young adults from 13-29 have the highest rate of HIV infection in Illinois at 37 percent. Also, African-Americans are disproportionately impacted by HIV/AIDS, representing about 14 percent of the population, but half of all new HIV infections in Illinois.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are a major cause of acute illness and infertility worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 448 million new cases of curable STDs occur annually worldwide among 15-49 year-olds. The 2010 CDC STD Surveillance report ranked Cook County first in the nation with the highest number of reported gonorrhea, primary and secondary syphilis cases; and second in the nation for reported Chlamydia cases. During 2011, every county in Illinois reported at least one case of Chlamydia, with approximately 3/4ths of those cases occurring among 15-24 year-olds.

More than 400 health care providers, practitioners, educators and advocates statewide were expected to attend the two-day “At the Crossroads” conference in Springfield to share information and develop comprehensive strategies to further prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS and STDs. Speakers include directors from the National Alliance of State and Territorial AIDS Directors (NASTAD), and the CDC, among other national organizations. Sessions will cover topics ranging from national HIV/AIDS policy to analyzing current STD trends among youth.

IDPH is distributing free condoms for “Save Lives, Condomize” through its-funded, partner agencies, and is also encouraging community-wide mobilization efforts to support and encourage condom use.

For more information on HIV/AIDS and STD resources in Illinois, call the HIV/AIDS and STD hotline at 1-800-AID-AIDS (1-800-243-2437). Also use IDPH’s Text 2 Survive mobile service by texting IL + 5-digit ZIP Code to 36363 for the closest free, confidential HIV testing site. This service is also available in Spanish by texting CENTRO + 5-digit ZIP Code to 36363.

T.I. and Shawty Lo Squash Beef

[nggallery id=26]

“After that last altercation at the Dirty Awards, I told him my side of the story,” Lo said Sunday in his studio, located in Atlanta’s Bankhead neighborhood. “We talked for, like, 15 minutes. We decided in 2009, we’re coming into a clean slate. And he’s finnin’ to go in. What better place to do it than in Bankhead at Club Crucial? … It was unexpected,” Lo continued. “We already talked. Me being a man, I just went up there, and the crowd went crazy. They was shocked. We dapped each other as soon as I hit the stage. It was a good feeling.”

Despite the beef between the two being dead, Lo said making a song with Tip is probably premature thinking at this point, but it isn’t impossible.

“We don’t know,” Lo said with a smile before going off to join the likes of Fat Joe, Jim Jones, Young Jeezy and DJ Drama and DJ Infamous’ party at the Velvet Room. “Stay tuned. Everything is in the mix. We haven’t talked about doing music since 2006, but at least we have been talking. It feels good to be here.”

MPAA Rated R for language

Sex & Nudity

  • A brief scene that takes place in a strip club. The strippers are seen wearing little more than pasties in the background, ONLY. (no nudity)
  • A woman tells her Husband that he has one hour to himself and then he is all her's, and he replies saying "I'll show you how that night was invented." Implying that they are planing to have sex.
  • Three men are Homosexual and describe various incidents, None are shown.
  • Willie O'Keefe tells Garrison he does not know anything cause he's never been f**ked in his behind. Meaning he does not know why they dislike Kennedy, This is mostly played for laughs.

Violence & Gore

  • The Zapruder film is shown a few times displaying a graphic and gory head wound of Kennedy. There is a brief depiction of murder.
  • Kennedy's autopsy is shown. In black and white a doctor starts to stick his finger into a bullet hole on Kennedy's back. Kennedy's graphic head wound that is being described in a voice over is only shown for a split second, but the entire autopsy is disturbing.
  • A man is found dead on his couch. This is not graphic at all but the apartment in which he is found is macabre and the seen may, because of this, be frightening.
  • A woman is thrown out of a car her face is bloody and bruised. This is at the beginning of the film and is not very graphic. We see the woman's face again later, though. This time there is much more blood, the face is bruised, and the woman is very pale.

  • 56 uses of the "f" word, used as a sexual profanity a few times, and many other profanities are scattered throughout, including several religious profanities.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • There's brief scenes when we see Jim Garrison smoking and drinking.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The opening scene has intense music as it details the 10 minutes leading up to Kennedy getting shot. When the shots occur the screen quickly drops black and three VERY loud shots occur. For younger viewers this could be very troublesome.
  • The film maintains a dark atmosphere throughout. It becomes progressively more intense from start to finish and the final scenes of Kennedy's death may be disturbing.

Seven Bad Habits of Highly Unsuccessful Veterinarians
By: Patty Khuly VMD MBA
Patty Khuly VMD MBA

Got bad habits that affect how you practice? Join the club! To my knowledge, there’s not one of us here in the running for veterinary sainthood. Indeed, perfection is, by definition, impossible. But progress? Now, that’s a beautiful thing!

All of which brings me briskly to the point of this sassily titled post: We can all do better when it comes to ridding ourselves of bad habits. But few of us agree on which means of veterinary professional self-improvement are most in need of attention.

Which is why I took it upon myself to poll some of my veterinarian friends on Facebook, Twitter, and elsewhere. Here’s what I asked:

What bad habits would you most like to see you or your fellow professionals address? While the replies ranged from the mundane to “habits” of more global importance, they all had one thing in common: a genuine desire to do better for ourselves, for our profession and –– most of all –– for our patients.

Here they are (in no particular order):

#1 Observe basic tenets of safety and sanitation

Don’t recap needles, wear high heels at your own peril (I’ve reformed!), keep your toes covered at all times, wear goggles when you drill, observe basic hand-and-glove care, wear your hat, mask and gown when you know you should, and ignore the owner of that growling Rottweiler’s dismissive platitudes: Just muzzle it, already!

#2 Look the part

In other words, don’t dress like a hot mess while on the job. “For the love of God,” said one respondent, “you’ve paid how much to have your intelligence downgraded by your willful lack of decorum?” Ouch! (Double-ouch, seeing as I’m not one to talk on this subject.)

#3 Employ chemical restraint less sparingly

It’s true; some of us often wait until our patient is doing alligator rolls and cartwheels before giving them the jab that might’ve preempted most of the stress.

#4 Ignore evidence-based vaccination standards at the risk of your profession’s reputation

Whatever your thoughts on last November’s 20/20 spot (and I thought it was an egg-suckingly shoddy attempt at bottom-feeding journalism), it called us all out on one area more than half of us could employ some habit-ending willpower.

According to vaccine manufacturers, about 60% of us still vaccinate annually. This, in spite of their own recommended DOIs of three years or more. Regardless of our rationale for continuing to vaccinate annually, it’s probably time we weaned ourselves off that thumb by now.

#5 Don’t fail to offer solutions for your lower-income clients

It’s not good enough to give it away occasion (or even routinely). As veterinarians we have a duty to help our communities build better systems for managing pets of the indigent, disabled and destitute. Which also means we should be promoting pet insurance, carrying CareCredit (and the like), and writing off our good deeds wherever possible. Ours is a business. And we shouldn’t be in the habit of ignoring that fundamental fact.

#6 Apologize when you’re wrong and express regret when you’re not but when things went south anyway

‘Nuff said on that score.

#7 Raise prices on your services, already.

Stop protecting all that pharmacy income. Sure, you’ll have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands, too, but that doesn’t mean we should be in the habit of ignoring reality: Services are where our skills lie and that’s where we should habitually seek out our primary income stream.

25 responses on “Modular shed part 2: Sheet metal roofing

  1. Yohann Ladouceur

    initially i wasn’t going to say anything about ridge vs flat screwing. but
    when you blamed the manufacturing process for your ridge misalignment i had
    to put in my 2 cents…The reason manufacturers want you to screw in the
    flats and use stitching screws for the ridges is exactly to avoid
    stretching the sheet metal profile and causing a misalignment of metal
    closure strips, fitted ridge caps (such as yours) or other profile
    sensitive accessories… on that note, i love your vids

  2. lionelhernandez34

    Good to see you fastened at the rib instead of the field. Good point on the
    water getting through. The gentleman’s comment on the manufacturer is
    correct but in the end they’re just trying to compensate for the fact that
    many metal workers often over tighten when fastening. Good rule of thumb is
    to drive the fastener to slightly compress so that the material can still
    move. Often this is not done instead they are driven so tight that
    distortion to the material is caused and the neoprene washer is damaged.

  3. KelvinW344

    Would it be possible to use sheets of glass fiber to cover the roof and
    sides, and then soak all the walls in epoxy, for a perfect fit? Or would
    the contraction of the epoxy make the shed implode?

    If you use a punch, and tap it with a hammer to start your holes, the
    screws will grab a lot quicker…that, or use real self tappers.

  5. Don Walker

    Nice shed! You may want to consider an opening or door on the gable end.
    This makes loading and unloading long stock easier.

  6. bno112300

    I’m kind of worried about those angle-ground front panels. if the sheets
    aren’t touched up with oxide paint you might get rust along the cuts.

  7. Matthias Wandel

    You are referring to the screens? Difference is, this stuff and the tin
    ships I already had! And the squirrels may not that much of an issue – with
    the metal siding, there’s no place for them to hang on.

  8. Pilot16H

    So what happened to the next video. Also, seems like you need a slightly
    heavier hammer or a framing gun. I enjoy the videos. Other than that, I
    can’t help but wonder why you didn’t assemble and then roof rather than
    roof and then assemble. Seems like it creates more work and effort on the
    tail end. I expect the assembly video might shed some light on that. Keep
    up the good work.

  9. tml4873

    The metal roof on my garage had plenty of loose screws (at least half) on
    the ridges when I bought the house. The garage was about 12 years old. Even
    aside from the loosening, the ridge shape and size is such that very little
    of the sealing washer is in contact with the roof. I don’t know which way
    is better, but if I was doing my own installation I would seal each screw
    with polyurethane caulking in either case.

  10. Matthias Wandel

    Hadn’t thought of the heat issue. Though haven’t had problems with where
    it’s been cut on 25 year old roofs.

  11. monk8235

    Ha! Just thought that too… but I can’t judge as I have welded with flip
    flops before – not for too long mind you!

  12. Nemodog

    So enjoyable to watch someone who is as talented as you are at work. There
    is an ease and economy of motion that is a thing of beauty. Thank you. I
    always learn something when I watch your videos.

  13. ctw203

    The point you sort of bring up is the pitch. If you have the screws on the
    ridges, it would cause issues when you go to shovel off a roof that doesn’t
    have enough pitch for the snow/ ice build up to slide right off. The screws
    would cause the shovel/ snow rake to catch on the screws possibly causing
    the screws to rip out after constant abuse every winter. Also, a side note,
    the fact that matthias doesn’t care for his own safety after being told
    plenty of times means, he just doesn’t care.

  14. Malcolm Daly

    hi mattthias, ive always screwed metal profile sheets in the hollows
    because when you screw on the ridge you distort the profiles shape, thats
    why your ridging doesnt line up! the sheets are wider because you pressed
    the profile flat. still love the videos 🙂

  15. queazocotal

    In general, product manufacturers recommendations are not designed to be
    the best way to install stuff. They are the fastest way to install it in a
    professional setting, perhaps with comparatively unskilled labour. A
    careful person willing to put in a little more time can achieve lots better
    performance often. Plus – it’s not their shed that leaks, and they can
    blame leaks on installation, or screw failures.

  16. Big Fat Tony's

    After next week’s barn or shed raising video it will be a treat to read the
    comments from the Self Appointed You Tube Safety Committee and from the
    Building Code Experts. At least one guy on the crew will be on camera
    without glasses for a few seconds. That will be good for 10 or so Safety
    Committee comments. Oh then I’m sure there will be comments about improper:
    gloves, ear plugs, hard hats, face shields, shirt tails. The footings will
    be too shallow, too narrow on & on & on.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is Not Related to I.Q.

It's important to know that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Intelligence, as measured by I.Q.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Neurologically Based

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a neurologically based disorder. This position has become controversial as many would like to dismiss the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder altogether saying that there is no evidence of neurological differences, or that there are no medical tests to diagnose ADD ADHD, or that the diagnostic criteria is too broad.

Intro to Being an ADHD Parent

In my fifteen years of private practice working with children with ADHD, one of the common concerns that I observed by parents was the fear that they had done something, or failed to do something, that caused their child's ADHD. I guess it is normal to blame yourself when your child is having problems.

What Is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder?

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a medical condition. It is caused by genetic factors that result in certain neurological differences.

How Big of a Problem is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder?

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - "ADD" or "ADHD" - affects between five to ten percent (5% - 10%) of all children in the United States, and three to six percent (3% - 6%) of adults. About 35% of all children referred to mental health clinics are referred for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, making it one of the most prevalent of all childhood psychiatric disorders.

Why Does It Seem That There Are More Children With ADHD Than Ever Before?

Even though the percentage of people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is likely the same as in the past, there are three likely reasons why it seems that "there is more ADHD" than ever before: First, we become more aware of problems like this as parents than we were as a children. We have grown up now and we are more concerned about these issues since we have our own children.

Anti-Social Behaviors and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Anti-social behaviors are common with ADHD individuals. About 60% of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder kids are also oppositional or defiant.

What Causes Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder?

The most recent models that attempt to describe what is happening in the brains of people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder suggest that several areas of the brain may be affected by the disorder. They include the frontal lobes, the inhibitory mechanisms of the cortex, the limbic system, and the reticular activating system.

Its Never Too Late

First of all, a bit of background: A high school dropout, stay-at-home mom until the age of 40, I wasn't too motivated to learn. Then I read the following quote:"Old Bureaucrat, my comrade, it is not you who are to blame.

Panic Attacks: Effective Ways to Cope

Jill is a 21 y/o college student who used to do well until about a few months ago when she started to experience "weird" attacks almost daily. She described her experience as "horrible.

Are All Dementias Alzheimer's?

I'm surprised when some patients and caregivers confuse dementia and Alzheimer's as one and the same. Each time a family member is suffering from memory loss, the conclusion is always Alzheimer's.

Behavioral Manifestations of Alzheimer's Dementia

Alzheimer's Dementia has a combination of cognitive and behavioral manifestations. Cognitive impairment is the core problem which includes memory deficits and at least one of the following: aphasia or language problem, agnosia or problems with recognition, apraxia or motor activity problem, and impairment in executive functioning (e.

What is the Treatment for Bipolar Disorder?

How do we treat bipolar disorder? Specifically, how do we treat mania or depression associated with bipolar disorder? The treatment of these two clinical states is not the same.The treatment of mania is dependent upon its severity and acuity.

You, I and We

Our life in society hovers around the concept of 'You-I- We'. The first stage is 'You-You' which is called 'dependent' stage.

ABSTRACTBiometric identification refers to identifying an individual based on his/her distinguishing physiological and/or behavioural characteristics. As these characteristics are distinctive to each and every person, biometric identification is more reliable and capable than the traditional token based and knowledge based technologies differentiating between an authorized and a fraudulent person.

Almost every day, it seems, we read something in the media about new evidence that we may not be alone in the universe. The search for alien life, once the province of science fiction, has become an established and respected field of astronomical research. The universe is portrayed as an inconceivably vast space with billions of stars, and a statistical probability of having spawned intelligent life on numerous planets in Goldilocks zones around diverse suns. Man, whom the Christian Church once decreed to be the centre of creation, is now viewed more as a random emanation of no particular significance in the grand plan of the cosmos.

Psychotherapy and Visualisation
In this paper I wish to describe the technique of visualisation in the process of psychotherapy as applied to clients in a counselling setting. There are two purposes for visualisation, the first being a technique of relaxation in a therapy session, guided imagination and ability to project thoughts and feelings onto the scene. The second, for home use, where imagery through art or illustration can help to projection and relaxation of the client (patient) in a controlled setting. The first part I shall show the verbal imagery in therapy and in the second the ability to use the technique for self-growth and cognitive insight.

Your dreams help you avoid having a sad surprise because they show you dangers that you cannot see.

The Genetics Of Bad Behavior - The Nature Versus Nurture Debate Continues
Can we blame criminal behavior on our gene set? Some believe so, but if this is the case, than one's crimes are pre-dispositioned and then we could say that it isn't their fault, it's how they were made. This of course opens up Pandora's Box because we are all supposed to be equal under the law - but how can we be once we admit that we are not ALL EQUAL to start with. That's a catch-22 for the politically correct isn't it? Yes, but maybe we ought to discuss this a bit, as it was a topic of conversation at our think tank, where we pride ourselves in knowing; No Topic Is Off Limits. So, let's talk shall we?

We Have A Real Problem With Gender Psychology Based Research Funding In America
Many have stated that previously underrepresented minorities in our society were passed over when there were research studies on health, psychology, or in the social science of society. However, today if you search just about any topic of Google Scholar immediately in the results will be "gender and minority" based studies, in a greater percentage than studies of non-minorities or studies that are fully inclusive based on averages. It's as if you cannot find what you are looking for, as there are so many of these minority and gender based studies? Why? Political Correctness of course, let me explain.

Psychological Paranoia - A Theory As To Why Many High IQ Brains Suffer From Such Things
Higher IQ people are more apt to suffer from psychological paranoia - but why? Could it be that they have such large memories and memories which are so vivid that they pick up subtle nuances, patterns and anomalies easier and try to make meaning of it all? Over the years running a think tank, I've talked to a huge number of over-the-top intelligent folks, all of which seem to be carrying some quirks or psychological baggage with all that brilliance, so let's talk shall we?

Before You Claim Moral Superiority Over Your Goodness And Empathy - Think On This
Many people persecute the philosophy of the late Ayn Rand and her Objectivism Theories. I am not one of them. In Ayn Rand's Philosophy she states that people naturally do what is in their best interests, even when they help others. Inherently, people help others due to the psychological reality of reciprocity and because it makes them feel good to help others.

Misdiagnosis of Schizophrenia & Other Mental Disorders
In this article we will examine why clinicians diagnose serious mental illnesses and why misdiagnosis is a common factor in the process. Looking at the definitions of schizophrenia and labelling as an incidence of laziness, misunderstanding, poor training and guidance from the psycho-pharmaceutical industry to sell powerful money making drugs for life. To remind ourselves as clinicians that mental illness labels are not real, but a cluster of symptoms, that describe a persons perception of reality to enable directed treatment and internal psychiatric discussion with familiar terms that mean something to the treating doctors.

How to Deal With Different Psychological Characters
What is the effect of psychology on our daily life? Why should we know? Well, there is no easy answer, and to be honest, you will still be able to get on with your life even if you did not know any of that. But if you care about increasing your productivity and chances in getting what you want, then psychology and especially psychoanalysis, will help you in achieving that.

Default Re: Who starts at SF?

His numbers took a dip, but his minutes also took a hude dip.

Plus, he seems like a guy who's meant to be a good player on a bad team while Garcia seems like he could be a good part of a good team. What I mean is, Salmons needs to have the ball in his hand to be effective and if the Kings ever pick up a star in the future, Salmons value is gone.

Default Lakers lose to the sixers: 90-95

Okay so I was in class and watched the play by play.

Again....Kobe starts off 8/12....finishes 10/26, meaning he finished the last part 2/14. Unacceptable. This is what I had been pinpointing all along. He keeps shooting. Other guys (Bynum, Murphy, Goudelock) were once again, coming in ready to perform.

This whole situation has been irritating, because the sad part is Kobe knows what needs to be done.

Pau Gasol, 5/14 against a team with no legitimate big men. Say no more.

Disney to showcase unique Diamond Celebration Float at Rose Parade 2016

in Disney, Disneyland, Disneyland Resort, Entertainment, Events

When the Rose Parade kicks off in Pasadena , California on January 1st 2016, Disney will be bringing some extra magic to the parade.

To celebrate their 60th anniversary Disneyland is bringing an all new 3-part parade float to the Rose Parade featuring a stunning recreation of Sleeping Beauty castle. The first part of the float will feature the lovable Frozen characters and the last part the exciting universe of Star Wars.

The Rose Parade will be broadcasted live on TV, check your local listing for times.

This is not the first time Disney has been a part of the Rose Parade and you can see some of their past parade floats below.

1 Comment

  1. I think a wonderful addition to the Disney Diamond Celebration float would be for the float to be proceeded by a convertible carrying the Golden Gramma’s that were at Disneyland making a commercial…..advertising the 60th anniversary….

“Self-awareness is not self-centeredness, and spirituality is not narcissism. ‘Know thyself’ is not a narcissistic pursuit.”

Being a spiritual being having an experience in a physical body does not mean that you should neglect your physical / earthly needs.

As one swings from one duality to the other, we may exclude too much in our zeal to live a spiritual life forgetting that a fully integrated human being neither sees things as: – Either / or – This or that – Spiritual / non-spiritual – Godly / worldly.

Here are 7 mistakes spiritual people tend to make once they discover their spiritual nature:

1) Hanging out only with other ‘spiritual' people.

Spiritual arrogance can set in as some people practice what is called ‘competitive spirituality'. They might judge another human being for not being conscious enough.

An integrated spiritual person is one who sees the divinity in everyone because those that are truly awake will have no need of judging those who are asleep.

2) Denouncing money.

A tough corporate life or a grueling business in a competitive industry might not give a lot of zen, but as one becomes awakened, the tendency to denounce money or material needs to swing to the other spectrum is not the most empowering way to live spiritually.

An integrated spiritual person sees money as a means to an end, is able to love money with all their chakras (not just the root chakra of survival), and see spirituality in what they do with their money.

3) Not focusing on marketing their spiritual services.

linkedin-400850_1280 copyThis is a huge pitfall. Simply believing that your energy is enough to bring people to your tarot reading service or your psychic reading store is forgetting that marketing is the means that people get to your energy.

An integrated spiritual person learns useful habits such as marketing, utilizing a good Facebook community, writing a good blog and spreading awareness in a grounded way. Not marketing yourself is like prayer without action or thought without true manifestation.

4) Swapping one dogma for another.

Some people may come from dogmatic religious backgrounds which forces others into being religious without spiritual essence. Upon emancipating one's self from such an environment, they swap one dogma for another. Some even go to extremes such as ‘converting' others into their spiritual belief forgetting that each have their own path.

An integrated spiritual person is spiritual but not religious. They do not need a dogma to keep them safe. They do not need to meddle with other people's spiritual lives.

5) Neglecting the right nourishment physically.

warrior-pose-241611_1280This one is simple but often neglected. They might feel blissed out but forget to watch their weight (for health reasons) or having a healthy physical life.

An integrated spiritual person recognizes that the body is the temple of the spirit and physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions are all one.

6) Guru worshipping.

Meeting spiritual gurus can be very enlightening and a very powerful experience. But that doesn't give you the permission to spend unwisely just to fly all over the world to indulge in guru worshipping to the point of putting yourself in financial strain or fanatical imbalances.

An integrated spiritual person is accepts that not making it to the next Darshan is not the end of the world. We are always and forever connected back to source and it is important to trust our own guidance rather than 2nd hand information.

7) Assuming letting things be is always the best thing to do

We can learn to let go and let God or to accept things as it is. But that doesn't neglect our need for conscious and effective manifestation.

Instead of simply surrendering everything to karma, take proactive action for your spiritual life. Create your dreams instead of waiting for it. Be the example and lead others.

Fall Playlist 2016

And the time has come for another playlist!

While my music tastes have always shifted with the seasons, I've really come to enjoy to the ritual of honing these seasonal playlists. Like a capsule wardrobe, it gives me time to reflect on each individual component (in this case, each song) -- time to both fall in love more deeply and to outgrow those which aren't destined to become lifelong favorites. On my summer playlist, for example, I eventually tired of Modest Mouse's "Dashboard," but I would happily listen to those Swiss Army Man selections on repeat for another three months. Here at the beginning, when everything is fresh and new, it's sort of fun to guess what will stick.

At the moment, as may be perfectly evident from the listing, I'm head over heels for *the bird and the bee* (yes, it's all lowercase. cute, right?) Not only did they dedicate their time to a Hall & Oates tribute album (necessary AND effective), but their at-times-ethereal, at-times-throaty vocals make for some very cool headphonage. I can't wait until it's appropriate to cue up their beautiful-weird take on "Carol of the Bells" (about 10 seconds after Thanksgiving dinner's over, right?)

Other standouts on this playlist come courtesy of my musically-inclined bestie, HH, who swapped playlists with me this summer and turned me on to the selections from Old Wave, Françoise Hardy, and Charlift. Meanwhile, my obsession with God Help The Girl continues to inform everything from this playlist to my hairdo daydreams. It's almost time to donate again, you guys! I'm rockin' some serious horse hair these days. Neigh.

Happy autumn, everybody. It's friggin freezing over here, but I'll allow it. It's hard not to love this time of year.

Tuesday, November 05, 2013 Shortly after Amy Stewart PC celebrated its fourth anniversary, the Dallas-based insurance coverage boutique firm added its third lawyer this year when Emily McCall joined the firm as Of Counsel. Emily brings to the firm a strong commercial litigation background and experience representing officers, directors, and their organizations in high-stakes situations: government investigations, internal investigations, white-collar criminal litigation, and complex business litigation over allegations of securities fraud, accounting fraud, health care fraud, and breach of fiduciary duties. With this rich background, Emily contributes both keen litigation skills and invaluable perspective to the firm’s management and executive liability insurance practice.

"Emily has already been an invaluable resource to the firm and its clients," says firm founder and managing shareholder Amy Elizabeth Stewart. "She is smart, efficient, and has precisely the right experience for our complex insurance litigation practice. Adding her to our team has greatly expanded the firm's bandwidth for handling high-stakes insurance coverage litigation."

Amy Stewart PC represents businesses and individuals in litigation with their insurance companies and other complex insurance coverage matters. For more information about Emily's experience and practice, please visit the firm's website or contact Emily at emily@amystewartlaw.com.
