Get Fit Tips from Trainer Chris Powell

We have an almost 5 year old grand daughter who we spend a lot of time with. When she is here visiting, we try to keep her up and moving. While in our home, she can't sit around and play videos games and watch TV all day long. I think that is a LOT of the reason why kids these days are overweight!

As parents and grandparents it is our job to get them up off the sofa and engaging in some type of physical activity. There are many things you can do to get your kids physically fit and today I wanted to share these tips with all of you from trainer Chris Powell. They are all tips that we can help our children do!

Get Fit with Your Friends from FREE BIRDS and TV’s Toughest Trainer Chris Powell

Kids, we know it may seem more fun to live a lazy life of pizza, TV and fuzzy slippers like Reggie from FREE BIRDS, but if you want to be big and strong like Jake, it’s going to take work! That why we asked trainer and host of ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition,” Chris Powell, to share some tips to help you get moving and eat things that will keep you healthy. If you follow his plan, pretty soon you’ll have pecs and glutes as impressive as Jake’s!

Tip #1: Eat Breakfast. Mom is right, it really IS the most important meal of the day! Eat something hearty that’s going to give you a lot of energy, like eggs and toast, or yogurt and granola. Start the day strong!

Tip#2: Get to school at least 15 minutes early for recess. Run, jump, climb, and play your favorite sports. You’ll get some extra time with your friends, you’ll get stronger and faster, and you’ll supercharge your body and mind for learning!

Tip #3: Eat fruit every chance you get! Fruit is nature’s dessert, and comes in all kinds of fun flavors. You can never go wrong with classics like apples, oranges, bananas, pears, grapes and pineapple. But also try exploring new and crazy fruits, like starfruit or kiwi, grapples or mangoes!

Tip#4: Cut the soda. Any way you look at it, it’s just not good for you! If you crave sweet beverages, try naturally sweetened waters! There are all kinds of new flavorings for water coming out with natural sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit – find one that you love, and hydrate!

Tip #5: Be a lean and mean gamer. When you’re done with your homework, instead of vegging out on the couch with your PS4 or Xbox 1, get up and try playing one of their MANY active games. Get off the couch and LIVE the game! Run, jump, balance, shoot…get involved in your video games and get fit in the process.

Enjoy the hit family comedy FREE BIRDS, and see Jake’s impressive physique in action, when it hits Blu-ray and DVD on February 4th, 2014.

My mother is a huge fan of the classic old-time movies and one of her favorite actors of all time is Charlton Heston. Now grant ya, I know who the actor was...but since I am from another generation, I am personally not a fan.

No Bake Fruit and Nut Bars Recipe

During the hot summer months when I don't want to heat up my house using the oven I turn to no-bake recipes just like this one. We like to make these fruit bars and take them with us when we go out hiking or in the car on road trips.

For variety...you can also toss in 3 to 4 tablespoons of sunflower seeds to bump up the protein and taste.

No Bake Fruit and Nut Bars Recipe

1 cup raisins
1 cup assorted dry fruit
1/2 cup almonds, halved or whole
1/4 cup powdered milk
1/4 cup graham cracker or cookie crumbs
1/4 cup molasses

Chop fruit and nuts and set aside. In a large bowl combine the chopped fruit & nuts with the powdered milk and graham cracker (or) cookie crumbs. Pour in the molasses and stir with a wooden spoon until everything is coated.

Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray and then form the batter into 1" diameter logs. Place them in a glass baking dish, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 to 45 minutes. Remove and slice into 1" by 1" bars. Toss several into a snack size bag for portion control snacking. They can be stored at room temperature.

Orange Mango Mimosa Cocktail Recipe

January is National Citrus Month, so why not create some citrus recipes featuring oranges? In addition to being delicious, did you know that Oranges contain all the vitamin C your body needs for the day? On average, an orange is only 62 calories and contain no saturated fats or cholesterol, which makes them the perfect snack this month.

This particular cocktail is made using g Orange Mango Sparkling ICE; a zero calorie naturally flavored sparkling water with vitamins and healthy antioxidants. The recipe is courtesy of our friends over at Sparkling ICE who asked us to share the recipe with all of you. I think this cocktail looks delicious and it would be perfect for our little party & get-together next weekend. I think I will whip up a few!

Orange Mango Mimosa Cocktail Recipe

1/3 cup chilled dry champagne
1/3 cup chilled Orange Mango Sparkling ICE
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier or triple sec (optional)

Fill the champagne flute 1/2 full with chilled dry champagne. Top with chilled Orange Mango Sparkling ICE. Top mimosa with 1 tablespoon of Grand Marnier or triple sec (optional).

8 Months Post-Hip Replacement

About 8 months ago I had a total hip replacement of my right hip. Learning that I needed a hip replacement came at a total shock 4 months earlier. Leading up to my surgery, I did everything that I could to get healthier so that I would have a better surgical outcome.

The first two months following surgery were extremely hard, especially the first three weeks. Those first few weeks I was in god-awful pain to the point I just wanted to die. At the time that I was screaming and yelling in pain, we didn't know that I had a torn knee from the hip replacement surgery. All of that tugging, pulling and twisting to get the old hip out and the new hip in...caused my knee to tear.

Once the third month rolled around the pain got better. I quit physical therapy which was making the hip and knee pain worse. Totally worse! Once I quit, I did my own therapy at home and got busy taking walks with my outdoor mommy walking group. We started out slow and then increased our distance and pace as the weeks went along.

At the six months post-op mark I was finally able to sit on the floor again and get up with some assistance. I was also able to bend down and pick things up off the floor. Furthermore, it took an entire six months before I could sleep on my right side again without having any pain. Finally, I was getting some decent sleep again.

It has now been eight months since I had my hip replacement surgery. The limp that I had immediately after surgery is getting better. I walk with no limp for about 20 minutes or so and then the limp kicks in again. I am not happy about that. I still can not get myself up off the floor by myself without assistance and I have to be careful on how I bend or twist my hip. If I do it the wrong way, the pain immediately shoots down my leg and up my right side of my back.

While things are not perfect, they are getting better. I am recovering a lot slower than most people due to my other health problems, Porphyria. With that said, I am determined to improve even more and once the winter weather breaks, I will get back outside to walk and do some light, short distance hiking.

A total hip replacement at age 45 is not fun and it certainly is not easy. Anyone who tells you that it is easy and that you will feel better immediately is a liar. It is a recovery process and for some...it can be a LONG recovery process.

I will update you all again on my progress once I hit one year post-recovery. To Your Health!

Orange Mango Martini Cocktail Recipe

January is National Citrus Month, so why not create some citrus cocktails featuring oranges? In addition to being delicious, did you know that Oranges contain all the vitamin C your body needs for the day? On average, an orange is only 62 calories and contain no saturated fats or cholesterol, which makes them the perfect healthy snack this month.

We love orange here in our home and I always keep them on hand! They are great for snacking, baking, using the juice for marinating meats, drinking fresh juice and you can use them to make delicious cocktail drinks like this orange mango martini.

The great folks over at Sparkling ICE sent over this recipe for me to share with all of you. It looks delicious and the weekend is just around the corner!

Orange Mango Martini Cocktail Recipe

1 oz. Tequila
1 oz. Orange Vodka
Juice of 1 Lime
3 oz. Orange Mango Sparkling ICE

Combine Tequila and Vodka with ice in a shaker. Strain and pour into the chilled martini glass.
Top with Orange Mango Sparkling ICE.

Be Carton Smart with Tetra Paks from Pacific Foods #CartonSmart

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Carton Smart. All opinions are 100% mine.
How many of you are big fans of canned goods? For me personally, I rarely used them! I prefer to purchase items like that in cartons or glass jars. I try to avoid metal cans and plastic food containers as much as possible. Just because I don't purchase products in containers like that, doesn't mean we don't enjoy the contents that usually come in them.

A couple of years ago I educated myself and switched over to food packaged in cartons. For those of you who are new to this concept, let me give you some information today on how you can Become Carton Smart too!

Becoming carton smart is an eco-friendly decision (cans are not biodegradable) and in my personal opinion, foods in cartons are healthier for us. We just don't know for sure what leeches into our foods via metal cans and/or plastic containers. These days you can find foods packaged in shelf stable cartons aka Tetra Paks and they taste delicious and fresh.
Here are some of the reasons why I personally use them for feeding myself and my family!

• Tetra Pak® cartons are made of 70% paper, a renewable resource, from selectively harvested, re-grown trees that are FSC-certified (Forest Stewardship Council).
• Cartons use 1/3 of the packaging compared to cans.
• Cartons are space saving, easy to store and open. Keep your pantry neat and toss your can openers.
• The unique packaging process preserves the flavor and nutrients of food without the use of preservatives.
• Recycleable and in fact result in 60% less landfill waste than cans
• Cartons are re-closable so you can use what you need and save the rest for later.

Plus, I find that foods packaged in cartons have no funky after-tastes like foods that are packaged in metal cans and I can crush down those cartons which saves me on my trash bill.  You can learn more about this topic by reading & checking out the below infographic which is a real eye-opener!

I received a kit from Pacific Foods to try out for all of you. I got a carton of Pacific Foods Chicken Stock, a carton of Pacific Foods Pumpkin Puree and a carton of Pacific Foods Cranberry Sauce. The perfect ingredients to make a holiday meal or an everyday meal to feed your family.
 photo d1d52bb8-c150-4f19-9a7c-b8c9ab3c8df3_zpsac6b75dd.jpg
I used the carton of Pacific Foods Pumpkin Puree to whip up an old family favorite. During this time of the year I like to make a homemade baked pumpkin pudding in the oven and then once done & cooled we top it with a big spoonful of frozen whipped topping. It is absolutely delicious and very easy to make.

Just last week my husband wasn't feeling too well and had a case of the flu. I decided to whip up some homemade old-fashion chicken and rice soup with the carton of Pacific Foods Chicken Stock. I love how easy that chicken stock is to use and it doesn't have a salty taste. It tastes like freshly cooked chicken stock and save me a lot of time when preparing homemade chicken soups and stews.
 photo 62adf36b-e1dc-4d93-98c1-aa80d97a468d_zps600d562e.jpg
On New Year's Day I made a special holiday meal and used the carton of Pacific Foods Cranberry Sauce as a treat during our meal. My daughter loves plain cranberry sauce but my husband loves to top it with some whipped cream. Cranberry sauce is really versatile and you can even use it as a marinade for meats, poultry and/or fish. Yummy!

You can be Carton Smart and ditch all of those foods you buy in traditional metal cans and plastic containers! It is better for our environment and in my opinion, better for our health.  You can learn more about this topic by Follow #CartonSmart on Pinterest and by joining them at Tweet @CartonSmart. Make sure you Tweet at them because they love hearing your ideas too!

Now that I told you my thoughts on this subject and how I used my Carton Smart products, I would love to hear from you on this topic. Have you made the switch?

10-8-13 The Rainbow After the Storm

      Today, I went to the juvenile detention center and was placed to teach six 12-14 year old boys. I was terrified, but they were obedient and a few students definitely tried their hardest. Imagine, they had to sit through six 30-minute lessons (3 hours!) of our lessons, but they actually seemed to enjoy them. It’s probably better than the punishment they get in the center. :( One of my students even left in the middle of the lesson to probably do physical punishment (like push-ups or sweeping). Poor kids. One of my friends pointed out that they are just paying for their crimes, but still, when I looked at them and interacted with them, they were really just children.
     I truly loved teaching there and wish I could teach there more--I guess my wish is coming true because I am going to teach there again tomorrow. This time, I will be teaching about the hospital, so my vocabulary words will be “doctor, nurse, emergency room, x-ray, and medicine.”

     My observer was different this time, but he was a lot more detailed. He pointed out these things in my lesson plan:
-Good move to mix up the students (my comment: two of them were talkative, so that was actually my way to separate them and to get the other students moving)
-Positive and patient, great teacher presence!, perfect pronunciation, SMILEY :D (my comment: yes, he actually drew a smiley)
-Showed great energy. Excitement is contagious
-Great rate of speech and pronunciation
-Good use of body language (comment: he proceeded to draw my hands making a heart shape to show them what love meant)
-Kept things fun... laughed/smiled a lot (comment: ugh! I’m supposed to be firm, not happy all the time! :( )
-Good job having students help you write on WB
-Showed great patience with students
-Good work helping with pronunciation issues

Things I need to work on:
-Try not to help too much with the game, let them figure it out for a minute, then help. (Comment: I felt like the students did not have an extensive enough of a vocabulary to play the game, but they did try. They even tried spelling “nine,” but spelled it “nen.” I let that slide, which was not a problem because they were doing their best with what they knew.)
=If they are sleeping or laying, ADDRESS IT! Point them out... poke fun at them... if that doesn’t work... BE STERN (NO SLEEPING). This will be easier when they are “your” students.
(Comment: I know! I just felt like maybe the student needed a break because he quietly put his head down and he wasn’t disturbing anybody. Now I know you’ll argue with me because they shouldn’t be sleeping in class, but even our teacher told us that if it’s a once-in-a-blue-moon thing and as long as they aren’t being disruptive, you can give them a break because you don’t know what goes on in the students’ homes or minds. They could be too exhausted and just might need a break. If he continued it next class, I would definitely talk with him and let them know that it’s unacceptable. Or even if other students started doing it, I would address it immediately.)

     For lunch, we ended up going back to the food stand next to our favorite Tesco Lotus Express, which was serving vegetarian food. I ordered pad ka pao (sorry, spelling again), except this time it was vegetarian. Yummy though! :)
     Tonight, I am just sitting in a burger bar with some of my friends, and we are totally isolating ourselves behind our technology.

My laptop is the one in front in this view

     In any case, I liked the fries! That was actually my dinner for the night. Back to juvie tomorrow! (And the reason for not having pictures of the detention center is because the government does not allow us to take any.) I tried to look it up online but there aren't any great pictures of it. This is somewhat what our classrooms looked like:

Copyright Google Images
*There were no girls, we had all boys, and they were in different-
colored shirts, like pink, purple, green, and blue.*

     In any case, if I didn't clearly emphasize so before, I loved my class--they were so much fun and listened well. They also seemed to really like my lesson; hopefully tomorrow I'll either have the same group or at least be able to see them again so I can at least say hi. :)

Some people should not reproduce....

The following is (I swear it is) a real and true conversation between a friend of mine and an ex-facebook friend of hers. She never met this person in real life... but I SWEAR THIS IS NOT MADE UP!!!

The first half is the original version, if it makes your head want to explode there is an English version below it- translated for the majority :) Names abbreviated to protect the stupid....

Original Version:

JT-How r u

AD- Good, you?

JT- notso good :(

JT- y dose everewon take his side U juss MEEN BITSH juss delete me know if u gunna b meen

AD- I hope this is all just one big elaborate joke. But based upon your spelling and grammar, But I seriously doubt it.

AD- You have somehow reached a level of moron in which I have in my life never encountered before. And hope never to encounter again. Also, I hope that you never reproduce. How you have made it this far in life is beyond me. The fact that the short bus hasn't ran you over is a miracle in and of itself. You are a marvel to the intellectual world.

JT- wat

English Version-

JT: Hey

AD: Hi

JT: How are you?

AD: Good, you?

JT: Not so good.

AD: Sorry to hear that.

JT: Do you want to know why I don't feel good?

AD: Sure.

JT: Well, I just got home from the hospital 2 hrs ago.

AD: Oh, So sorry to hear. I hope you are okay.

JT: What happened was, I shoved a second tampon up, but forgot to take the second one out.

AD: Um.. wow

JT: So then I tried using a third one to remove the two, and when that didn't work, I used a 4th.

AD: O.o

JT: I tried to get my boyfriend to pull them out, but he could only get his hand in so far.

AD: Are you messing with me?

JT: What do you mean?

AD: Nevermind... Then what happened?

JT: He couldn't get them out, but he did find 2 rubbers in there.

AD: that's good I guess.

AD: So then what happened?

JT: I was in pain for 3 days. I had to use pads. Pads hurt. Why would anyone want to use something that uncomfortable?

AD: And four tampons didn't hurt?

JT: Not really. But I did start to get sick. So I had to go to the hospital and they pulled them out. And on top of it all, I now have diarrhea and my boyfriend dumped me for my sister because he said I was too loose. How could he say that?

AD: Is this a joke? Are you fucking with me?

JT: How can you be so insensitive? I'm serious, and trying to vent to someone.

AD: Sorry, not trying to be.

JT: I'm just a little emotional right now, it's ok.

JT: What's worse is, my little sister is now prego with my baby.

AD: Say what?

JT: Yeah, he cheated on me, and now she is prego, and it has to be my kid.

AD: Don't you mean with his kid?

JT: Of course it would be his kid. His and MINE.

AD: That would make it his and her's. How could it be yours?

JT: We have had sex, duh.

AD: Seriously?

JT: Yeah, and she is only 16. She's too young to have kids. He must have sucked up one of my eggs and put it in her. Now she is going to have my kid and I will end up all alone.

AD: That would NOT be your kid. That's not how it works. The egg stays in you. It doesn't leave. So it wouldn't be your kid at all.

JT: Why does everyone keep taking his side. You are Fucking bitch for taking their side. You should just delete me.

AD: I hope this is just an elaborate joke, but based upon your spelling, I seriously doubt it.

AD: You have reached a level of moron in which I have never encountered before in my life. I hope that you never reproduce. How you have made it this far in life is beyond me. The fact that the short bus hasn't ran you over is a miracle in itself.

JT: What?

Time for a few rants... feel free to add your own!

Have you ever wanted to tell someone "I would feel sorry for you, but I think you are feeling sorry for yourself enough for everyone"? You have no idea how pissy I have been lately... I know I can attribute some of it to PMS, because I am a raging BITCH during that time, but now that has passed I feel I can safely rant without going overboard... maybe, possibly... don't count on it...

OK, so here we go...

Rant #1: I am sooo tired of women blaming their weight problem on PCOS. OK, I did it once, and I was told that having PCOS makes it harder to lose weight... well it is hard, but NOT IMPOSSIBLE PEOPLE!!!!! I have lost over 70 lbs so far, I am within the healthy weight range (no longer obese, no longer overweight), I have PCOS and I DID IT! You cannot stuff your face with cakes, cookies, McDonald's, Burger King, etc... pop a Metformin in your mouth and say "This pill will help me lose weight!" then get mad when you are not losing weight! OK, Metformin CAN help you lose weight because of the side effects, but it is not meant for weight loss. Also, I saw one woman had typed "I find that since I got PCOS I get cravings before my T.O.M. (time of the month), does anyone else experience this?" Um... news flash!!! MOST WOMEN GET CRAVINGS BEFORE THEIR TIME OF THE MONTH!!!!! YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL!!!! It is not the PCOS that is doing that, it is called being a hormonal woman.

Rant #2: Women who say they are working out, losing tons of weight, etc... then you see them and they look no different than they had 3 months or more before. OK, if you want to lie to yourself fine, but don't lie to me and expect me to lie to you by saying you look like you lost weight when I cannot see it. I would feel bad for thinking this way, but when people tell me they see you running at the track then immediately going into the bowling alley to eat half of a pizza and chicken strips with ranch dressing I know that you just undid whatever you might have done. I feel not one ounce of bad for you. Oh, and stop being pissed off at me because I have lost the weight... I have worked hard for this, if you chose to ignore what I have told you what worked for me that is your issue not mine. Jealousy is an ugly color to wear.

Rant #3: The pity train has derailed... seriously. I am so tired of hearing all the whining and complaining about things that people have complete control to prevent or FIX! Stop playing the blame game for whatever issues you are having, take some fucking responsibility for your actions (or the actions of your little precious adorable demon spawn) and DO SOMETHING!!! You cannot expect others to fix everything for you, and when you are a military spouse you HAVE to learn to do shit and fix shit on your own... waiting for the hubby to handle things is not always an option. I have fixed a door that came apart (Gorilla Glue and clamps to the rescue!), fixed a broken sofa (same thing... YAY FOR GORILLA GLUE!), taken the vehicle in for brakes, tires, and maintenance, dealt with many a crisis, and still managed to try to help others when they exhausted all options. You are a married adult with children... ACT LIKE IT! Also, I refuse to feel sorry for someone who creates their own drama.

Rant #4: My kids are on my last nerve. If they would get off their asses and do their chores I would be THRILLED! Don't expect me to buy you stuff that you want (notice WANT, not need) when you don't do jack shit to earn it. Also, please notice that the vehicle does not have the words TAXI written on it ANYWHERE!

Rant #5: I was told that I might be offered a full time position at the work location 40 miles from here... umm.... take that offer and SHOVE IT! I was working at the local office when a full time position came available and YOU CHOSE to pass me over for it. I do not fancy the idea of driving 40 miles in snow, rain, dark (I hate driving in the dark) and on the friggin autobahn because you screwed me over 8 months ago.

On the upside, the holidays are here. Thanksgiving was wonderful. I invited a Russian family over and enjoyed seeing they loved the food and loved the stuffing (they never had stuffing before... WTF?), I am also holding a 2nd Thanksgiving for some soldier brothers of my husband that will be back home any day.

My youngest son came to me and told me his medication for ADHD was not working and he wanted to go to the doctor. I am so proud of him for seeing that and coming to me! He is now on his concerta in the morning, and a low dose of Ritalin at noon. It is working wonderfully, and I have even noticed his handwriting has become neater! I have to take him into audiology at the end of the month because he says (and the school says) he cannot hear well out of his right ear. He says at times he cannot hear out of it at all, so we shall see what is going on there.

My oldest son is planning a trip to Australia, and getting very impatient about it. My daughter still has her boyfriend, I have met his mother and I like them all! He is a really good kid and looks out for my daughter who can be very trusting and naive at times. I told him that she is lucky to have him, he replied that he is lucky to have her (awww....).

Also... does anyone think that Levi's jeans fit larger than the size states? I bought a pair of size 4's and they fit, but I have a hard time believing that I am my daughter's size.... I mean I will take it, but I do not want to look like a liar when I say I can fit in 4's... I know I can fit into a 7 normally without issue, but 4's??? Pssh...

Add your rants in the comments... I love to read them :)

One for the Road: Speed queen

By Shadow

Vroom. No, I mean VRRROOOOMMMM! As soon as I started her up, the throttle seemed to be stuck open—way open—scaring me half to death. I blipped the throttle a few times, made sure the handlebar idle adjustment wasn’t open, but nothing happened; it still stayed pretty near pegged. I shut her down, waited a minute or two until all the electronics had a chance to reset, and started her up again. This time, the idle settled into about 900 rpm, exactly where I wanted it to be. I just shrugged, hoping it didn’t happen again.

This became an intermittent problem with the Switchback until one day when I couldn’t get the idle to come down no matter what I did. It was so bad that I couldn’t take a chance of riding it anywhere, not even to the shop, so I took the FXD, letting the Switchback sit in the garage to think about what she’d done and why she couldn’t go out that day.

I knew I needed to figure out what’s wrong. My first thought was to check things out via the ThunderMax product that had been installed on the Switchback several years ago. I’d been shown how to connect the bike’s ThunderMax module to my laptop, which already had the TMax software installed, so I figured I’d try it. I disabled the bike’s alarm, spent about a half hour trying to pry off the electrical caddy cover to get at the ThunderMax (it replaces the stock ECM), and… no cable. Norman Gross at Sussex Hills Ltd., the shop in Sussex, New Jersey, where I had much of my ThunderMax work done, had left the TMax cable attached so I didn’t have to remove the module every time I wanted to connect it to my computer. But earlier in the year I’d had the module updated somewhere else and apparently the tech forgot to replace the cable.

I couldn’t find one that I thought would fit, so I called Ken Puzio at Black Hills Custom Parts, which isn’t far from my house, and found that he had a cable that would work. Then I had a brilliant idea. I asked if I could use some floor space in his shop to do the diagnosis and potential fix. My bright idea was that if I messed things up to the point where I couldn’t get the bike to function at all, it would already be in a shop, saving me the time, aggravation and cost of having it towed. Now all I had to do was get my bike to idle normally so I could actually ride it there. Sweet thing that she can be sometimes, she purred to life and didn’t give me a bit of trouble, allowing me to pull into the shop without any further drama.

Using a step stool as my desk, I set up my laptop (a creeper was just the right height for a chair), pulled off the electrical cover and then the TMax module, and attached one end of Ken’s cable to the back of the TMax and the other to the laptop. The TMax software came up and immediately told me I needed an upgrade. There are a ton of tech, troubleshooting, software and firmware guides on the ThunderMax site. And it was simple to download the correct version of the software into my computer.

When I tried to get the TMax software to communicate with the TMax, I got an error message. So I picked up the phone and called Matt, lead tech at Sussex Hills. Matt gave me some pointers and I finally got a good connection. (User error—thanks, Matt, for your patience.) I called again and this time Norm got on the phone and suggested I upgrade the firmware because a new version had come out in the past few months, and just updating the firmware might actually resolve the idle problem. The update went smoothly, and now I was looking at my TMax settings. Cool beans. I pressed a button to dump the activity log in case I wanted to upload it to the ThunderMax tech team for future diagnosis—easy peasy. Disconnect cable, replace TMax module, put cover on, and start. Purr.

Ken said that if the problem happens again, it could be the idle air control. I’d never even heard of the IAC, and learned that it’s the equivalent of the idle speed screw on my carbureted bikes except it can’t be adjusted manually—it has its very own motor controlled by the ECM. Ken suggested that I clean it, but I figured I’d done enough for the day. In a later conversation with Dan Pike of FTF Cycles in Randolph, Massachusetts, also a ThunderMax dealer and technician, he described in detail exactly how to clean the IAC. Even Wikipedia has an entry on this issue: “Although the IAC is supposed to last the vehicle’s lifetime, various reasons may cause it to fail/malfunction prematurely. The most common failure mode is partial/complete jamming of the actuator (due to dirt/dust or even oil) where it cannot be smoothly controlled. The result is an engine that fails to maintain idle RPM and frequently stalls. A jammed actuator may be freed simply by cleaning it.” There are even YouTube videos showing how it’s done.

More suggestions came from ThunderMax support, including the importance of general maintenance for things like a throttle cable sticking, loose battery cables causing intermittent power which can lead to the IAC getting out of sync, and quite possibly even a vacuum leak. And I’ve heard from various sources that IAC problems can occur even on bone-stock bikes. But with the ThunderMax, I can start monitoring my IAC as well as other potential problems.

The Switchback hasn’t given me a problem since then. I’m sticking by the old adage, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” I’ve got my fingers crossed that she continues to behave like a lady.

Yes, Paula Deen Loves Black People the Way an Owner Loves a Pet.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Paula Deen was, up until about 10 minutes ago, a complete enigma to me.  I couldn’t quite figure out if she was a bigot, or simply a misunderstood woman.  I can’t pretend that I know what lies in her heart and soul, but I am now forming  an image inside my brain of who this woman really is.

To gain wisdom on the matter, I did what most of us should do:  I turned to my elders.

My first conversation was with my grandmother.  At the age of 42, I have full understanding of just how blessed I am to have two grandmothers and two grandfathers (apparently, my family makes our babies young).  I listen to them, even when I don’t agree, because it is only through their eyes that I am able to see and hear the 1960s, 50s and those other time periods that presented nothing short of horrific realities for most of the black population.

When speaking to my grandmother, I proposed the idea that Paula Deen was simply an old-fashioned Southern woman who doesn’t know the value of political corectness.  I wondered if, perhaps, she was being punished for making a mistake that anyone could have made.  If a judge or jury were able to peer deeply into any of our personal lives, it would unleash a series of embarrassments that would make Satan blush, so why be so hard on poor Paula?

But my grandmother cleared things up for me right away, and in her mind, there was absolutely no room for ambiguity:  She can’t stand Paula Deen.  While I must respect my grandmother by not revealing the details of our conversation (she stills scares me just a little bit), I can say that I saw and heard something in my grandmother’s voice when I mentioned Paula Deen.  There was an odd and uncomfortable familiarity that she has with women like Deen, as if she’d been putting up with their nonsense for decades.  She had little patience for the tears, the excuses or anything else that might allow Deen to walk out of this situation unscathed.  It was as if an old score had been settled, and the help was watching Miss Sally finally get what she had coming to her.

In keeping with my goal of hearing from my elders, I chose to have another conversation.  Paula Deen mentioned that she called Rev. Jesse Jackson this week, and I decided to speak to Rev. Jackson too.  For the good and bad of it, most of us must admit that Rev. Jackson has seen, done and confronted more on the civil rights front than nearly any of us.  You can’t discount 40 years of experience dealing with an extraordinarily broad variety of experiences that pertain to race.

So, without agreeing to agree with him, I wanted to hear Rev. Jackson’s take.

Again, I am forced to respect the privacy of both conversations, but I can openly share my perceptions of Paula Deen, which were influenced by speaking with two people I respect who are in Paula’s peer group.  My conclusion is that Paula Deen doesn’t dislike black people, at least not all of us.  In fact, there are some that she loves like members of her own family.

But what Paula seems to forget is that there is a big difference between LOVING someone and RESPECTING them.  When I hear Paula’s reactions to her black employees (like the man she referred to as being “black as this board”), I envision a southern belle who tries to have a good heart, but is simply oblivious to the depths at which she might be overtly condescending toward people of color.  She’s like the little girl down the street who used to play house with me, and also told me that I was “cute for a black guy.”

Being comfortable with someone doesn’t mean you consider them to be your equal.  I know people who would die and kill to protect their dogs, but that doesn’t mean they want Fluffy sitting at the dinner table.  Paula Deen appears to be, unfortunately, addicted to a racial hierarchy, where black people are loved and appreciated, as long as they know their place.  In fact, this attitude has long been common in the south, a place that never really learned that peace can sometimes come with the sacrifice of disrespectful subjugation.

Call me stupid, but I don’t believe Paula Deen to be a bad person.  But I do consider racism to be a mental illness (quite a few mental illnesses are created by our environment, like an abuse victim who develops split personalities as a coping mechanism), and Paula has spent her life with an undiagnosed and very serious infection.   This illness has caused women like Paula to torture people like my grandmother for centuries, and this behavior cannot be tolerated in a society which at least claims that it’s trying to find its way toward equity.  Paula Deen’s children inherit their parents’ wealth and privilege, and are convinced that they got it because their parents worked harder, when the truth is that their forefathers got rich by terrorizing black people for long periods of time.

How this situation pans out for Paula Deen is really up to Paula.  Rather than speaking to Matt Lauer and apologizing to white people, she should be speaking to Tom Joyner and apologizing to black people.  She should be willing to grow, learn and teach and allow us to sit with her as equals.   She must be willing to confront structural heirarchies in corporate America that continue to leave black people oppressed and subservient.  She should redeem herself through actions, not just words and tears, for my grandmother ran out of tears back in 1955.

There you have it, Paula Deen has been effectively diagnosed by all of us.  At this point, the question is whether or not she’s going to actively embrace her treatment or continue to live in denial.  That’s where  her true integrity should be measured.

Song: "Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem" (Hymns 208)

We have already learned about what the trip to Bethlehem must have been like for Joseph and Mary. But it was important that they go to Bethlehem. It was well known at the time of the Savior’s birth that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem. When the wise men traveled to Jerusalem and inquired of Herod about the new king, Herod assembled his wise men and leaders and “demanded of them where Christ should be born. And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel” (Matthew 2:4-6).

(Image via here)

But it is not just prophecy that makes the place significant. The word Bethlehem means “house of bread.” How interesting that the "Bread of Life" (John 6:35) was physically born in the "House of Bread." And, we know that spiritually, the "Bread of Life" is born again in everyone who chooses to partake of Him. Not only by believing on Him, and obeying His commandments, but by taking His name upon us - all covenants we renew when taking the sacrament. This brings new meaning to the words in Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem:

"How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him still,
The dear Christ enters in."

Activity: Make and decorate little "houses of bread" - gingerbread houses.

For a list of the rest of my Christmas Devotionals, see this post.

Do You Use the 80/20 Rule of Time?

Time is the most valuable commodity on the planet.  I know there are people that would argue this but time is the one thing that you cannot make more of.  You can make more money, you can make relationships better, but you cannot make time.

I have found that as I get more efficient and better with the tasks I do the more I find myself wasting time.  I waste time because I know that I can quickly finish the task that needs to be done.  I know this is not the best way to handle myself but I know that human beings look for ways to be lazy.

I have found that as I start to master a task that needs to be done, if I give myself another thing to master the time that would be wasted is now being channeled towards a better end.  I have also discovered that if I don't set boundaries for when I will stop working I will not stop and this will lead to over working.  Over working is not good either, make sure you take time to rest.

Ultimately, the sweet spot is somewhere between, over working and being lazy.  I know that some people like to oscillate between these two extremes and that can work.  The issue with that approach is that it put additional stress on your body.  Each person has there own paradigm, so you will find what works for you.

I prefer to use the Vilfredo Pareto principle of 80/20.  The the 20% off of the lazy and 20% off of the over working we are left with the 60% that is in the middle. and this oscillation will serve much better in that we will never be near the point of collapse or the point of stagnation.

Getting started after a break is easier and break that is is easier.  This again is what I have found to be my sweet spot.  Please comment if this is the same sweet spot you use or if you have another method.

I hope this helps make you more effective and less stressed.  To your success.

the break-up song

I was recently involved, either marginally or dead-bang in the middle, depending on how you look at it, with a litte Internet distastefulness.

It all began with this:

As a twitch, I posted it to a photographer’s Facebook feed and said that her work had “inspired” me.

Yes, it was snarky. Sue me.

As expected, the comment/image was deleted and I thought, that was that. The comment/image got some “likes”, I got a chuckle, no harm no foul.

The next day said photographer posted a photo that was so … okay I can’t even think of how to describe it. Even her own fans were bumfuckled: “it’s beautiful, but what is it.”

THAT image rubbed me the wrong way. See, I LIKE this photographer’s work. I’ve always thought it to be softly beautiful and sweet.

Just lately though, she’s started adding elements that done a bit differently might have fit more with the image she’s built for herself. Sadly, they look more like something a junior high schooler might have created with Piknik. In my opinion they detracted from the beauty of her talent.

When she posted the questionable shot – you know, the one that NO ONE COULD FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS – I twitched.

And posted THIS to her feed:

This is not talent. It’s not art.

It is a deliberate kick in the teeth to wherever you received your real talent from.

You are tossing CRAP onto the Internet’s collective walls and hoping it will stick. And yourloyal followers, those people who LOVE your REAL talent are following along behind and sucking it all up like good little minions.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself. To have been given a natural talent and making a travesty of it.

I have always admired your talent and your ability to create beauty. I have no idea what you’re doing now, but it’s my opinion that you’re twisting your God-given talent by pissing on everybody’s feet and calling it morning dew.

And of course, you delete any opposing or questioning opinion – dissenting opinions make it more difficult to make your loyal followers drink the Kool-Aid.

And that is MY opinion.

Of course, it was deleted. Her prerogative.

However, if you are going to post your art to the goddamn world, you better be prepared for the realization that not everyone is gonna love it.

Twitchy still, I posted it word for word to my own FB.

And thought that it was over. My FB following consists of my real life friends and family and the members of a board I belong to (hullo S’lores). Hardly the entire Internet.

Some jolly-talk was made on the board I belong to. The PRIVATE board where we go to say things that we don’t want others to see. Amongst ourselves, y’know?

Private like.

Someone who joined that board with the express purpose of spying on us copied these private conversations and showed them to the photographer in question.

I can imagine she was hurt. I would’ve been.

So, shame on the bitch that did the tattling. In a very real way SHE was the one who hurt the photographer by hiding and sneaking and carrying tales.

Yes, we said it. But we DIDN’T say it to her face nor did we shout it out publicly.

Because that would have been cruel and mean and catty.

Y’know, like the bitch who did the actual tale-carrying.

So … on and on it goes because after all we are women and this is what many of us do; what we HAVE done since grade-school.

We perpetuate and nurture the meanness between us.

Still ANOTHER photographer thought it her place to lecture the entire photography based Internet about the situation and remind us not to be mean to each other (in a nutshell)

She wrote, in part:

I may vent about it to my (mostly non-photographer) friends. I may even kvetch a little during one-on-one conversations with other photographers. I may try to quietly counteract it. But you will not find me, not ever, participating in a public bashing of a colleague.

Yeah, kinda what I did. Anything more that what I posted on FB was posted PRIVATELY.

Someone ELSE snuck around pretending to be someone they weren’t and passed on PRIVATE information that wasn’t meant to be seen in public. In effect they lied to get into a private forum, STOLE content and passed it along in order to hurt someone else.

If THAT person (who remains nameless because they are a coward) had kept their nose out of it no drama would have seen the light of day.

Here’s MY advice for the Internet: If you post your art (whether it’s writing or photography or taffy-pulling) to the web, there will be SOMEONE who doesn’t like it. There will be people who will express their opinion. If you love what you do, grow a thick skin and let ’em ride.

And Meg? Those people that are carrying tales to you that they got by sneaking around? Those are the people you need to watch out for. Cuz they will turn on you.

Count on it.

Yeah, so I ran into this post recently on the Daily Mail.

Anybody notice that it was a RARE form of the bacteria.

There’s a reason it’s rare – it very seldom happens.

I can’t remember what television channel I had on the other day (thank God) but every third commercial was about bedbugs running rampant all over the US andalsoplus -the dreaded and nefarious DUSTMITES.

In case anybody didn’t know it, there are mites of some kind on pretty much everything, everywhere, all the damn time. Skin, flour, toothbrushes … EVERYTHING. Always have been and until we evolve into beings that live their entire lives inside of a plastic bubble, with a disinfection option on our highly evolved gauntlets, always WILL be.

This shit is not as prevalent, or as deadly, as the media makes it out to be. It’s a way to garner readership/viewers for media and for companies to bolster sales.

In some cases I think that kind of crap actually causes problems. Too much cleanliness leads to compromised immune systems. If y’all had seen the way I grew up you’d DIE from the horror of it.

And yet, here I (and my brothers and sisters) are. And we’ve all gone on to create more living, healthy offspring.

Also, I love how the people that this shit happens to are “normal” middle class folks. Wouldn’t you think people who live in run-down neighborhoods or in the deep south or hang out in crackhouse neighborhoods would be infested/contaminated as well – even more so?

Paint the Car

The story, according to Ray Schwartz and his wife, Beth, is that the car drives like a dream but after a couple of accidents, one involving a NJ Transit bus, it was dented and bland. They offered it to Uta Brauser, founder and proprietress of the oft-beleaguered Creative Grove as an art project.

Throughout the year, Uta has taken refrigerators and used them as canvasses, inviting people to paint whatever, sort of taking graffiti and street art, and the general inclination of visual spontaneity into a public space. Ray & Ben decided why not do something similar to the family vehicle. It doesn’t look that great to begin with, they said, why not turn the beat up automobile into art instead?

So, on the last Creative Grove before the Christmas Sales season is in full swing, the public art project of Paint the Car was held.

Interactive Art?

Performance Art?

I was reminded of those contests where people take turns destroying a car, hammering it with a sledge hammer, or they win prizes, often the car, when people keep their hands on a car and whoever can keep it on for the longest is the winner.

This was about endurance, it was just about passing inspiration. I went early in the event, saw the first squiggly line effacing the freshly washed paint job. Came about back an hour later. More artists were working. Everyone was strangely solemn, not in a overly serious or sad way; but they didn’t want to just create meaningless lines. There was a focus and intention by each person who picked up a brush.
The project was open to everyone, but it seemed most of the folks not only had some talent, but wanted to apply a worthwhile image, no matter how simple or fleeting. A visual idea had formed in their minds and they wanted to express that idea as accurately as possible given the spontaneous nature of the event and the imperfect canvas of an automobile. The process of paint expressing barely deliberated thought was fascinating to watch.

Art argues against conformity. What is more conformist than a solid color car, so bound by design and traffic laws, Paint the Car was a fun art event, but maybe it spoke to an inner desire many of us share. Why must all cars look the same mono-color? Why can’t a car be as unique as its driver?

  1. I want to hammer a car into something!

  2. This post is so informative and makes a very nice image on the topic in my mind. It is the first time I visit your blog, but I was extremely impressed. Keep posting as I am gonna come to read it everyday!

Apple : Burning Multiple Times to the Same CD

Generally, when you burn files to a CD once, you’re done — you can’t burn to that CD again. Unless you use this little trick: First create a new folder and give it a descriptive name (something like “burn baby burn!” Kidding). Now put the files you want to burn into that folder, then go to the Applications folder and open the Utilities folder. Double-click on Disk Utility. When it comes up, go under the File menu, under New, and choose Disk Image from Folder, and then when the Open dialog appears, find that folder with the stuff you want to burn and click the image button. A Save dialog appears in which you can leave the name as is or choose a new name (leave the other controls alone), and then click Save. In a few moments, a disk image of your folder’s contents will appear in the list on the left side of the Disk Utility dialog. Click on that icon, and then click the burn button at the top left of the Disk Utility dialog.

When you click the Burn button, a dialog will appear asking to insert a disc. Do so, and then click once the blue downward-facing triangle on the right side of this dialog to show more options. Click on the checkbox for Leave disc appendable, then click the Burn button. Your data will now be written to that CD. To add more files later, just insert that same CD and then you’ll use this same process all over again, but when you get to that final burn dialog, the button won’t say “Burn” this time, instead it will say “Append” because you’re adding these files to the same disc. By the way, don’t forget to remove the files you already burned to this disc from your “burn baby burn!” folder (and the DMG file it creates) before you make your next disc image.

Juniata County Fire & Rescue (EMS) Night This Week At Port Royal Speedway

By Shawn Brouse

Port Royal – Port Royal Speedway will present Juniata County Fire & Rescue (EMS) Appreciation Night this Saturday, July 28 at 7:30 pm with racing action for the Aumiller’s Insurance 410 sprints, AB Auto Glass late models, 305 sprints and the Juniata Tire Sales/Casner’s Service Center enduro dash divisions.

The night’s activities are meant to honor and recognize local emergency responders for their commitment to public service in and around Juniata County, the home of Port Royal Speedway and the Juniata County Fairgrounds.

Some two-dozen pieces of Juniata County emergency response apparatus are slated to be on display with engines and trucks coming from departments in Port Royal, Mifflin, Fayette Township, Beale Township, Delaware Township, East Waterford, Thompsontown and Richfield.

Ambulance companies slated to appear include Central Juniata EMS, Port Royal EMS and Fayette EMS.

Kids fire truck rides will be given on the Juniata County Fairgrounds from 5:30 until 6:15 pm after gates open at 5.

And a parade will take place around the speedway itself during intermission.

Plus, the Seven Mountains Emergency Medical Services Council will have Andy the Ambulance roaming the grounds to interact with fans of all ages.

Andy the Ambulance is an interactive, remote controlled educational ambulance used as a tool for public outreach and education.

The council will also have static displays of mass casualty equipment on hand and emergency preparedness kits for distribution along with other giveaways.

CPR training will also be available for anyone interested.

The night promises to be a fun one for one and all with fantastic racing action on the agenda as well.

The show will be just the second of the season for the PA 305 Sprint Series due to previous rainouts.

When last the speedway was in action on July 14, Chad Layton won his second 410 sprint main of the year while Brett Schadel scored his second in late model action while John Heane did the same in pro stocks.

Adult general admission for the show is $15 with youth ages 12 – 18 admitted for the low price of just $5.

PRS 2012 – Racing into a new decade with a new attitude!

Long Story Short

Forget dedicating every night of your week to a gym routine just because you’re clinging to your New Year’s resolution with everything you’ve got when all you really want to do is go home and sit on your couch. A new study has found that all it takes is 150 minutes of moderate activity per week to reap important health benefits.

Long Story

Do those colleagues who can’t stop talking about their weekend warrior pursuits annoy the crap out of you? Would you be thrilled to never again hear the words “Tough Mudder”? Turns out those guys may be on to something. A new study has found giving in to that urge to walk past your gym and head straight on home doesn’t have to come with a side of guilt – as long as you replace it with a hefty weekend session.

That’s right, all you need is 150 minutes of moderate activity a week – one easy workout session (ok, maybe two) – in order to get similar health benefits to people who exercise way more often.

Researchers from Loughborough University and the University of Sydney analysed data on the time people spent doing exercise and their health over 18 years (surveying about 64,000 adults aged over 40 in England and Scotland) and found that no matter how often people exercised in a week or for how long, the health benefits were similar as long as they met the activity guidelines.

So what are the guidelines?

According to the NHS Choices and Public Health England, people aged 19-64 should try to do:

  • at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity, such as cycling or fast walking every week, and
  • strength exercises (such as lifting weights) on two or more days a week that work all the major muscles

  • 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity, such as running or a game of singles tennis every week, and
  • strength exercises on two or more days a week that work all the major muscles

  • a mix of moderate and vigorous aerobic activity every week, such as two 30-minute runs plus 30 minutes of fast walking, and
  • strength exercises on two or more days a week that work all the major muscles

While that may seem like a lot, it’s definitely do-able on a weekend or even one day of the week, if you’re the kind of person who’d rather cram it all into one go.

It’s certainly good news for people with a busy work week who prefer the weekend warrior method, fitting in all their recommended physical activity in one go (just try to keep from bragging to your colleagues about it).

So what are the stats?

Compared with those who didn’t exercise at all, people who did all their exercise on one or two days of the week showed a lower risk of dying from cancer (41%) and from cardiovascular disease (18%).

Those who exercised regularly on three or more days per week reduced their risks by 41% and 21%, respectively.

Even the “insufficiently active” lowered their risk by a significant amount – by 37% and 14%, the researchers said, writing in an article published online in JAMA Internal Medicine.

Dr Gary O’Donovan, study author and expert in physical activity and health, from Loughborough University, said the key was doing exercise that was “purposeful, and done with the intention of improving health”.

Now that you can have your cake and eat it too – literally – you’ve got no excuse not to take your health seriously. All it takes is 150 minutes a week.

Own The Conversation

Ask The Big Question

Why would anyone NOT do this?

Drop This Fact

Exercise and a healthy diet can reduce the risk of a range of diseases – such as cancer, heart disease and type-2 diabetes – as well as helping to control weight, blood pressure and reduce symptoms of depression.

Hillsong LA is freaking people out

What if other churches lose members when Hillsong opens their new church in Southern California? An article, based on a comment from a ‘visitor’ (not sure where she was a visitor to or from), says that the opening of the new Hillsong will likely be devastating.

“There are plenty of churches in the Orange and Los Angeles Counties that will be swallowed whole when Hillsong LA arrives…There are jobs that will be lost and pastors who will see their congregations dwindle. There are also plenty of larger churches as well [whose] pastors have spoken at your conferences, supported your endeavors and welcomed your church’s presence as a visit from overseas, all who will now see you as an unwanted threat.”
That’s actually pretty lame, I think. That sounds to me like pastors trying to protect their turf. (I’ve heard the talk from pastors.  We can’t compete.  They have all the money.  They have all the resources.  They have all the talented musicians…  Baloney.  You have the same gospel they have. Stop crying and start believing it). [harsh tone over] But she asks a better question:
Like the venture in NYC, how is this not just capitalizing on the popularity of Hillsong in the United States?
OK… that one, I get. Kinda of. Of course, Hillsong is capitalizing on their popularity.  Otherwise, they would not be planting in LA. But is this a good thing or a bad thing? Question totally out of left field for you as you think about this: What if Billy Graham had decided NOT to work alongside local churches, but rather decided to start a church in every city he conducted a crusade in?  What would the church landscape look like in the US today? Yet, no one EVER accused Billy Graham of capitalizing on his success in New York when he did a crusade in Los Angeles. And before you say that Hillsong is all money motivated… you have to remember that there was (and still is) a TON of money going through the coffers of the BGEA. It seems to me that when someone starts to make accusations that a church will swallow other churches whole that someone is either: 1.  Overstating what will actually happen; or 2.  Scared for their turf Please tell me I’m all wet. (which I probably am) Todd

Alfred Richard Orage (1873 – 1934)

Flower Festival 2012:

reflectionArranged by Esther Fitzgerald and Andrea Brown and given by the Graveyard Philosophy Club.

The poet T. S. Eliot wrote of him as “the finest critical intelligence of our day”;   The artist Eric Gill who designed and carved his grave wrote of him ” there is no art nonsense about him………nothing of the crank. Behind his great intelligence, and maintaining it, was a rich humanity.  Ezra Pound was enormously grateful to Orage for his sound advice suggesting that if he wanted to change the earth into heaven he would have to keep his feet firmly on the ground.

 Orage was the founding member of the Leeds Art Club, instigator of the National Guild Movement and backed by George Bernard Shaw purchased and edited ‘New Age’ from 1907 to 1922. ‘New Age’ was the most influential publication of modernist thought of its time. He later went on to found the New English Weekly.

 He died suddenly in 1934.

 The Dean of Canterbury, at his own suggestion, presided over the service at St John’s Hampstead attended by hundreds of mourners .

The words of Krishna to Arjurna found in the Bhagavad Gita are carved into his grave:

 Thou grievest for those that should not be grieved for

The wise grieve neither for the living nor for the dead

Never at any time was I not, nor thou, nor these princes of men

Nor shall we ever cease to be hereafter

The unreal has no being

The real never ceases to be.
