Monday Moments: The 7 Easy Steps to Be Happy

Katrina was sad because we had planned to have a babysitter come over one night but had to cancel because she was a bit under the weather. Ken was going to be the "babysitter" instead, so he offered to take the girls to the dollar store to pick out something fun to make/do and borrow a movie from Walmart.

Talia got all excited and tried to get Katrina excited by explaining the following:

The 7 Easy Steps to Be Happy
by Talia

1. Get your shoes on & your coat on
2. Put a smile on your face
3. Get in the car
4. Get your seatbelt buckled

I think this is a pretty good 7 step program for some of us ;) haha

The Best Screamo Bands of All Time

Updated December 17, 2019 55.5k votes 7.5k voters 257.3k views115 items

List RulesOnly screamo punk bands. Not to be confused with emo bands

Who are the best screamo bands of all time? Everyone has an opinion about which musicians are the greatest when it comes to the screamo genre. If you're into good, hardcore punk and emo, you probably love screamo too. There are also a ton of great Christian screamo bands and girl screamo bands that have been standouts in the genre in recent years. What exactly is screamo? In short, it's very aggressive music that involves, well, screaming. Sometimes screamo bands shift tempo in a song quickly, but the forceful lyrics are almost always emphasized. Vote for the bands you like the most, vote down any that you don't and by all means, feel free to add your favorites if they aren't already listed.

The best screamo music includes songs from bands like Of Mice & Men, Slip Knot and Bullet for my Valentine. Defining these bands as just screamo probably wouldn't be accurate, though: Some bands listed here are definitely heavy metal, emo and/or "metalcore." They are also often punk, because punk is a heavy influence on any screamo music. Just check out this list of the best punk bands of all time for proof.

The screamo sound is also strongly influenced by thrash metal. Whatever you choose to call it, screamo is a hugely popular music genre, and the famous screamo bands/artists listed here are at the top of their game with their unique sounds.

An easy 5 stars and a must stay freedom camping location. Access is via a fully paved and well maintain road suitable for any camer. The freedom camping is located at the very end of the road you cant help but drive into it and it's well sign posted.

There are about a dozen camping bays where you can back up your camper up with views over the ocean. Each spot is separated by foliage which provides both privacy and a wind block. There is a well cared for bathroom at the start of the freedom camping area and would be a short walk from any of the camping bays.

I loved this spot as you can watch an idyllic sunset in the evening, the moon glistening over the ocean at night and a bright red sunrise in the morning.

What a wee gem. Like the land that time forgot. Gorgeous beach walks and peaceful tides. A beautiful strip at the far end of Kairakau Road (go past the members-only camp ground until you see the sign pictured). Space for 30+ RVs. The verge on the ocean side of the road is designated for self contained campers, with a handful of shrubs breaking it up to give some privacy and wind breaks. One flush toilet block on site, and a further triple block 300m back at the corner of Kairakau and Mananui Street, where you’ll also find a couple of picnic tables. For the adventurous, kaimoana around the shallow rocks is plentiful with rods, pots or freediving. No drinking water or other facilities. Pack out your trash.

Betty Wright takes it to church with her hair-raising hook, and K-Dot spits some powerful bars that also touch on police brutality (“Law enforcement that forces us, tortures us”).

Choose Your Ideal Free Radar Detector App in 2020
RRD is reader-supported. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn a commission. Read more.

Choosing the Ideal Free Radar Detector App

Radar detector apps are developed to alert drivers to police radars. A good side is that most of them are free. Despite you don’t have to pay for them, every free radar detector app is useful and can save you from a speeding ticket. Android smartphones and the iPhone are widely supported, so all apps are available for these smartphones. On the other side, Windows phones are less supported. You must remember that to use a free radar detector app you must have an available internet connection and GPS. Also, these apps use a lot of internet data, so your phone bill may be a bit more expensive!

free radar detector app

Main facts about these apps

Every free radar detector app should alert drivers for police radars. This means that an app will alert you to radar or laser gun or a speeding camera. They use online databases to compare your location with the location of police radar. Some apps use users sharing features. This means that other users can alert you for new police traps. This also means that you will get alerts for police radars/lidars that have been moved. However, it is still the best way to know when you should slow down your car.

How to choose an ideal free radar detector app?

The best side of these apps is that they are free, although, some of them have in-app purchases, so you can improve them. In most cases, this isn’t important and you will get excellent alerts even with a free version. The secret is to download an app that has the most features. Besides alerting you to police radars like Vascar, these apps can measure your current speed, speed limit, etc. If you are choosing an app that is based on an online community, make sure it is downloaded a lot of times, because this means a lot of users use the app. To help you, we created a chart of most and least downloaded apps.

free radar detector app number of downloads

Speed radar detector had the last update in September, and not a lot of users downloaded the app, so it isn’t a wise choice. On the other side, Speed Cameras & Traffic Sygic was updated on October, 13th and it has the highest number of downloads.

What other users say for these apps

One of the ways to download the best free radar detector app is to see how many users rated the app with 5 stars. On Google Play, this is the best rate and it means that these users think the app is the best. This can be useful when you are choosing the best free radar detector app. Luckily, we did the math for you and implemented it into this chart.

free radar detector app number of users who gave 5 stars rate

As you can see, Speed Cameras & Traffic Sygic has the highest rate. According to most users, this is the best free radar detector app.

The best free radar detector app features

To be useful, a free radar detector app must have great features, besides alerting you to police radars. For example, Speed radar detector has a feature that allows you to see the camera location and to choose for which types of police radars you want alerts. It will alert you to danger zones as well. However, the main problem is language support. Spanish is the main language. Although it supports the English language, some users claim that it has certain problems and drawbacks when using this language. Radar Beep – Radar Detector is completely different in this case. It offers support for several languages, including Japanese, Korean, Russian, Chinese, etc. Voice alerts can be used in different languages as well. For example, you can choose, English, French, Italian, Chinese, etc.speedcams-app-mob-960

On the other side, Speed camera radar has a night mode. This is very useful when driving at night. This is a very rare feature that a small number of apps have.

Speed Cameras & Traffic Sygic goes one step further. It allows you to see the speed limit of a road you are driving on. Even better, it allows you to keep track of speed limit changes. This is also a unique feature that just this app has. You can see alerts of other users and you can warn them as well. This means that the app combines online community features and an online database, which makes it an excellent app.

Traffic, Radars & GPS can be used in all parts of the world. An interesting feature is a biker mode, designed for the motorcyclist. This is another rare feature, so we can say that the app is the best for bikers.

Average ratings

A perfect free radar detector app will have a 5-star rating. However, if we know that there is no perfection, we can understand why all apps have lower ratings. In this case, the higher the rating, the better. We made a chart, showing the average rating, based on several downloads.

free radar detector app number of users who gave 5 stars rate

Traffic, Radars & GPS has the best rates, but the differences with other apps are minor. Users claim that the, north or ahead feature is very good. The app can be used in the background as well.

Each free radar detector app has certain drawbacks. It can be useful to know them. A speed radar detector is a great app, but it isn’t properly tested, because not a lot of users downloaded it. Speed Cameras & Traffic Sygic is probably the best app here, but it is even better if you use the premium version. On the other side, the free version doesn’t have all the features. Traffic, Radars & GPS is used by more than 2.5 million users.

A drawback, according to users is the user interface. It looks complicated for some users. Speed camera radar doesn’t have options that are easily available to you. This means that it is hard to use the app when driving. Radar Beep – Radar Detector has no option to add a new radar, so you cannot help other users. Maybe this drawback will be fixed in future versions.

If you’re keen on using actual radar detector instead of apps, check out these detectors that are best for hiding within your vehicle:

Tamiya 1/10 TT01E Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evo.II Team Zakspeed Debis 4WD EP Car Kit w/ ESC #58656

This is a classic Mercedes race car from the early 1990’s. It replicates the iconic 190 E 2.5-16 Evo.II. The livery in this kit faithfully replicates the colors of the Team Zakspeed car which ran in the 1991 DTM. Of special historical racing note; in races 6 and 7 of the season, the no.20 car was piloted by a young Michael Schumacher, who later went on to win 7 Formula One World Championships. The main sponsor of the car was Daimler-Benz’s now-defunct group company Debis.

The bathtub frame of the evolved shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E has its motor and battery close to the ground for lower center of gravity and optimum balance. Mounted on the bathtub frame is a fiberglass reinforced nylon top deck and gear covers improving rigidity, as well as a 3-piece tie rod providing smooth steering action. The low center of gravity, highly balanced design, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension system, and front and rear differential gears all come together to produce a fun driving car.

Voice search could be described as an up and coming technology. Although it is already around and used by many people today, it has a lot of potential to develop further and be the solution to a range of problems.

It is a technology used by people to access internet search results on a smart device, such as a mobile phone, by simply using their voice.

There are already a few companies that provide this service, such as Google’s assistant that comes automatically included in Android phones, Amazon’s Alexa, and Apple’s Siri. Although still at a very young stage, this type of technology is growing at an increasingly fast rate.

When a new trend takes hold, marketers have to adapt their strategies to suit it. Voice search statistics and data indicate that when people use voice search, they tend to ramble more and use more of a conversational tone compared to when they search using text.

In this respect, marketers have started to tailor the keywords that they use, and often appeal to longer key phrases rather than specific words. Descriptive adjectives such as ‘best’ or ‘close by’ are now more important than ever.

The majority of voice search is done as questions, so keywords should be targeted in this way as well.
Big players in the search game, such as Google, have also made adaptations in accordance with the increased usages of voice search. In 2013, Google launched a major algorithmic update by which it started to consider the user intent and the contextual meaning behind queries. In order to find relevant results, Google now focuses on the semantics and the wider relevance of a user’s query.

To take advantage of this opportunity, companies need to think about how their audience will think and speak about their business, products, or services.

Businesses should also be focusing on the type of question that is asked. ‘What’ and ‘who’ questions tend to indicate that the user is still in the research stage, whereas if she is asking ‘where’, then chances are she is almost ready to buy.

A high percentage of voice queries are used to find local information, which makes sense seeing people use their mobiles on the go. ‘Near me’ searchers are increasingly more popular, so all companies should ensure that their location information is up to date and clearly on show.

the new tefal cook4me is a pretty comprehensive piece of kit for your kitchen. an all-encompassing slow cooker, steamer, rice cooker and soup maker, the lcd multicooker promises to be a wizard in your kitchen so you don't have to be.

coming with 50 pre-programmed recipes, i was sent the new appliance to give one or two of them a go myself. would this be the end of my food blogging journey? would the next 50 blog posts be picture of this little fella, with no other input from my fair (ish) hands?

soup is something i make rarely and should really try more often. i always do a pumpkin soup at halloween, once went through a mushroom soup phase and recently made a leftover veggie one from the contents of my salad drawer. this celery and stilton recipe jumped out at me as a good place to start, plus it said it only took 10 minutes. win win.

set out in starters, light bites, mains and desserts, the tefal cook4me recipe book had the likes of steamed salmon, casserole, tacos, bread and butter pudding and even crème brûlée. i know, right?

what i firstly loved about the booklet is i didn't have to do any maths. with most recipes serving 4, my dividing by two skills are second to none for myself and my boyfriend's meals. on the other hand, this is no reason alone to spend £250 on a magic machine. how would it fare in the cooking department?

i took the ingredients part very seriously by measuring, stirring, crumbling and chopping everything to the precise amount. i mean, you don't do that for every recipe do you? you do? oh.

with a sleek outer and surprisingly lightweight feel, the inside has a sturdy base with non stick removable 6 litre cooking pot. there is also a steamer basket for the recipes which require it, a matt coating and a metal steamer lid which is detachable for cleaning.

with a cute little robotic beep, the cook4me was on. after a 5-10 minute warm up, i was instructed to add in the sunflower oil and onions. there was no timer on the browning part so i had to stand over and watch this part, which i think may have defeated the object of it as i felt like i was still standing over a pan.

next, when i was happy the onions had softened, i was to add the celery, stock and bay leaves. i think it would be really good if the gadget came with a set of utensils, such as a teflon coated spoon or spatula for the browning and mixing of ingredients.

with all the ingredients except the stilton in, i was instructed to lock the lid and start the ten minute timer. at this point, you can delay the cooking so that you could handily have your dinner ready for a particular time. although by this time, the preparing and cooking had taken more like 30 minutes, so i think it should be made more clear that the 10 minutes doesn't include the warm up, browning the onions and so on.

whilst the soup cooked, the house soon filled with the inviting and homely smells. another melodic beep 10 minutes later and the soup was ready. i was excited. like i was about to open an air-locked time capsule or something.

upon opening the cook4me, the delicious scent of the aromatic bay leaves and earthy celery was mouthwatering. as the ingredient proportions suggested, the amount served two perfect portions which i ate with crusty bread and crumbled over the stilton to melt slightly.

the flavours were delicious and hearty, with a moreish taste which left me mopping up the bowl. on the other hand, i think a blending mechanism within the appliance would have been very beneficial. although the celery and onions had softened, the stock still felt very separate from the clear broth-like consistency with chunky veg dotted about and i would have loved it to have thickened up and blended.

from my first experience, i would recommend the cook4me to someone who is already looking for a slow cooker, steamer and rice cooker and so on, as it would work out as a great investment and take up less kitchen space.

for me, i think i'd be a tougher customer since i love everything about the experience of cooking, even if there is more risk of things going wrong, ingredients all over the floor and more washing up at the end of it. that said, i have used it since for rice cooking and reheating - for which it was fantastic as i don't have a microwave and hate standing over a pan of rice. next on my list is steamed fish and another go at their soup... watch this space.

what are your thoughts on multicookers and all in one kitchen gadgets? do you have any appliances you just can't live without?

note: i was sent a tefal cook4me for purposes of review. all opinions are honest and my own, i was not expected to write a positive review or otherwise.

  1. I think I have to say I would really enjoy having one of these - it looks smart and I like the idea that it comes with a recipe book. But does that mean you can't freestyle with it?

    It looks fab though, great review! x

    1. Thank you. You can freestyle too to a certain extent - such as using the steamer or rice cooker. There are lots of timings in the book for different meats, fish and so on. Think it'd be really good if you were already looking to buy a few kitchen gadgets :)

  2. I'd try this but I'd have to leave out/substitute the celery, I can't even stand the smell (and I once had to pack it for a day!)

Difficult interview questions and answers

How many recruiters does it take to change a lightbulb?

Hiring managers occasionally like to test a candidate’s problem-solving skills and encourage them to demonstrate examples of logical thinking. We’ve covered how to answer common interview questions, but what happens when you’re asked something more unconventional?

Here are a few of our favourite unconventional interview questions, and how to answer them…

How many basketballs can you fit onto a bus?

Some of our favourite answers…

Actual answer

As with a lot of these questions, there isn’t a definitive answer. It’s really all about demonstrating a logical way of working them out. A great example of how to answer is:
Avaas Beenie: Calculate length, width, height = cubic metres. Account for seats etc. then assume the size of an inflated ball is 0.2 cubic metres. You divide the cubic metres of bus space by the ball space and – any space for seats, bars etc

How many traffic lights are there in London?

Some of our favourite answers…

Actual answer

A lot. We think @hyderymr is probably along the right lines. Essentially, it’s all about estimation and demonstrating logic in reaching the conclusion. Ok, you get the picture…

How many piano tuners are there in the entire world?

Some of our favourite answers…

Actual answer

Basically go with a well thought out estimate, e.g. ‘That would depend how many pianos there are in the entire world. For example, if pianos need tuning once a week, and it takes an hour to tune a piano and a piano tuner works nine hours a day for five days a week, then pianos need tuning each week. It would be one for every 45 pianos. Give or take…’ If you can demonstrate how adept you are at logical thinking… Ok, you get the picture.

A man pulls up to a hotel in a silver car, and immediately realizes he’s bankrupt. What happened?

Some of our favourite answers…

Actual answer

He was playing Monopoly. Let’s face it, everyone loves a riddle. Remember: some questions may be thrown in to catch you out. Try not to overthink the question. Taking a deep breath may help… (and give you a handy time to pause for thought)

Explain a database in three sentences to your eight year old nephew?

Some of our favourite answers…

Actual answer

Sometimes candidates rely too heavily on overcomplicated answers and technical jargon. This question relies on your ability to simplify things and being able to describe them in a succinct and concise way.

Something along the lines of: ‘A database is a lot of things, which have all been put together in a group. They have lots of information in them, and are kept on a computer. A very nice person sorts them all out’ will be sufficient.

Failing that go with: ‘Grown. Up. Stuff.’

If you could be any type of biscuit, what type of biscuit would you be, and why?

Some of our favourite answers…

Actual answer

Custard Cream. Always Custard Cream.

Whatever the question may be, most unconventional interviews don’t really have set right or wrong answers. They are meant to demonstrate how a candidate would react if a difficult problem came up, not to mention how they would cope under pressure.

Deceptively, they aren’t intended to take too much time. Instead of trying to come up with the perfect answer, just be creative and come to your own conclusion.

As long as you can demonstrate how you got there, you’ve passed the test.

Finally, how many recruiters does it take to change a lightbulb? Answer: too many…

More interview questions

Of course, there are many different types of interview questions – and not all of them are intended to throw you a curveball.

So whether you’re looking on advice how to answer questions about your career goals, competency questions or character questions – we’ve got you covered.

And if you’re stuck for what to ask at the end of the interview, view our suggested job interview questions now.

Help: My Boyfriend Doesn’t “Get” Feminism

Illustrated by: Paola Delucca
Welcome to Unprofessional Advice. With zero professional experience and a complete lack of credentials, I'll take on your issues with compassion and humor (and I'll keep it anonymous). Got a question for the column? Email me.

Dear Kelsey, I’ve been with my boyfriend for five months, and I’m very much in love with him. But, of course, we’ve had our falling-out moments, and have had to re-evaluate if this was the right time for us. One conflict, which almost forced us to break up, is our differing values when it comes to social and political issues. The most significant topic — on which he has made an effort to hear me out — is women's issues, rights, and equality. I often clash with him on this, since he can be old-school sometimes, when it comes to his thoughts on women. I have been repulsed by how ignorant he is of the woman's struggle within the dynamics of media, culture, ethnic prejudices, cultivation theory, etc. I can't blame him for not knowing about these things, because most people I know don't even take them into consideration. These aren’t issues you typically learn about in school or see discussed on TV. It’s not a passion for most people, so it doesn’t interest them enough to research the topic further. But advocating for women’s rights and equality is a big part of my life, and it’s something I plan to pursue professionally. But I'm afraid my boyfriend is resistant to learning about any of this. His indifference or apathy toward the subject has challenged our relationship already, and I'm afraid it will come back up, and inevitably break us up in the end. We have talked about this many times, and I'm lucky that he is open to discussing this. But I don't know if he cares enough to support me in this movement. What do you think would be the best approach to this? Sincerely, Conflicted Feminist
Dear Conflicted Feminist, Years ago, a cousin of mine (and a good gal pal) started dating a guy who was iffy on abortion rights. He described himself as an out-and-proud liberal, and totally pro-choice. It was just that, when it came to things like late-term abortion — what he then called “partial birth” — he just felt kinda weird about it. Maybe there should be some restrictions, or something. It just made him a little confused and uncomfortable. When she told me this, I basically screamed at her to, “Dump him! Dump him now! No, wait, I will dump him for you, just give me his number.” Though my response was, perhaps, a little knee-jerk, it also made a certain sense. We’re women, and we live in a culture which, at best, is confused and uncomfortable with women’s equality in general. Anyone who doesn’t see that, and recognize it as a huge, urgent problem, has no place in our lives, and certainly not in our hearts. But I was wrong. This guy was actually a good guy, and because she didn’t take my screechy advice and dump him, he became an even better one. They stayed together and got closer and had all sorts of talks about the things that mattered to them, including this very issue. They educated each other on all kinds of things, and today, he is an A+ boyfriend and an actively woke dude who stands up, speaks out, and volunteers. I was right about the principle, but wrong about the person. I’m so glad she didn’t listen to me. Your guy may have the same potential. I’d like to say we should give everyone a shot to have their mind cracked open and to re-examine all the faulty wiring they may have been living with. But sometimes, it just doesn’t work. Your guy may be un-wake-able. And sometimes, it’s not worth the effort. You’re not responsible for teaching this guy — and I’m gritting my teeth as I type this — that women’s equality is a thing. You have a choice. And yes, I do see the irony in that sentence.
Illustrated by: Paola Delucca
Option A) Dump him, cry, and never look back. You don’t need this casual, lazy misogyny. Option B) Keep him around, and keep him talking. These are both totally valid choices, and both will be difficult. But please note there is no Option C. I won’t tell you what to do, but I will implore, urge, and perhaps even screech at you to please, please, do not stay in this relationship and just learn to be cool with him not giving a shit. It’s bad enough that, as a human, he doesn’t seem to care about the problems facing his fellow female humans. But it’s even worse that he claims to love you, a woman, and still doesn’t care. It’s double-plus-bonus worse that you plan to make a career out of advocating for women’s issues and you’re with someone so aggressively apathetic. I’ll tell you that much for damn sure. And I’ll tell you another thing: You need a wake-up call, too. Look at the way you’re coddling this guy, even in your letter. You say he’s “old-school” and that you’re “lucky that he is open to discussing this.” Woman, come on. Being open to discussing the things that matter to you is not some premium perk in a relationship. It’s a given. He doesn’t get extra points for that. And, I’m sorry, but, “old-school?” Oh yeah, I’m sure it was super nice for women back in the old days when men always held the door open and paid for dinner. That really softened the blow of not having the legal right to vote. I get it. You love him. Life is complicated. If you stay in this relationship — or any relationship — you will have to compromise, and so will your partner. Even A+ boyfriends will never be perfect, and guess what? Neither will you. But some things, you don’t cede, because to do so would compromise your very sense of self. That’s not okay. And no one who actually loves you would want you to do that. This is a conflict, but it shouldn’t be a fight. People learn by listening, and it’s hard to listen when you’re on the defense. So, no matter what you decide, try to make this a good, heartfelt talk. If you go, let him know exactly why you’re going. If you stay, tell him what you need to change. Infuriating though it may be, it’s much easier to brush aside issues when they’re just “politics.” But this is personal, and he needs to understand that. Then he will have a choice to make, too: Will he stay and start really engaging with you on this, not just because it’s important in the big picture, but important to you? Or is this something he just can’t get on board with? Either way, you will have done something good. You will have gotten him to consider this, finally, for real. You may not get the answer you want. But you will know that, at long last, you’ve gotten him to start questioning. Sincerely,

Chaplains offer far more than just a prayer and a handshake

Hospital chaplains a critical part of health care team

The link between a person’s religion or spirituality and physical condition is one that has gained increasing recognition and consideration in health care discussions, and hospital chaplains have been in the thick of the debate.

"Chaplains provide a spiritual dimension to health care," explains J. Vincent Guss Jr., advocacy commissioner for the Association of Professional Chaplains and chaplain for the Alexandria, VA-based Inova Alexandria Hospital. "What we know is that what affects the body affects the mind and spirit. They’re all interrelated, and to treat the whole patient, you have to address each of these [components]."

Hospital chaplains are ministers, priests, rabbis, and imams, but they have received additional training in ministering to patients in the medical arena, including counseling patients and their families in end-of-life settings, when confronted with medical decisions in conflict with their religious or cultural beliefs, or when facing an unexpected or serious health crisis.

"The importance of treating a patient’s spirit is well recognized," says Rabbi Stephen Roberts, associate executive vice president of the New York Board of Rabbis and immediate past president of the National Association of Jewish Chaplains. "One of the things JCAHO [the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations] looks for is pastoral care [in accrediting hospitals]."

Roberts says the role of the chaplain is essential in modern medicine, because changes such as the increase in technology, insistence of managed care on limited lengths of stay, and cuts in hospital staff have robbed medicine of much of the human contact doctors and patients once had.

"It doesn’t really do the work of letting the spirit help the body recover, and when the spirit becomes weak, the body doesn’t have the same resources to heal," he says.

Chaplains encounter patients whose conditions are testing their beliefs, their faith in themselves, and sometimes, their trust in their ability to deal with the health issues confronting them.

Serious illness or injury may cause patients to question the meaning or worth of their lives, or to wonder why they have to endure what lies before them. Even when the patient is not in crisis, practical questions can arise over the ethics of procedures such as in vitro fertilization, organ donation, blood transfusions, compliance with "do not resuscitate" orders, ending life support for a loved one, or the surrendering of a newborn for adoption. In many cases, a chaplain will know how various religious bodies view medical procedures, but in any case, a chaplain will first attempt to elicit the patient’s own understanding or belief about the situation or procedure in question.

"A chaplain understands the medical arena, and also understands the patient’s own clergy and community," says Jeffrey Funk, a hospital chaplain and executive director of the Placentia, CA-based Hospital Chaplains’ Ministry of America. "In making health care decisions, moral issues arise, and most chaplains are trained in dealing with the moral dilemmas that are involved in those health care situations."

Guss says that in helping bridge the span between a patient’s physical and spiritual well-being, "we are not talking about just religion, but about their spirituality. People can be spiritual without being religious, and we as chaplains help mobilize spiritual resources people didn’t know they had."

Roberts says many of the patients he encounters aren’t necessarily anxious for his services when they first meet.

"I am always surprised by how many people say, when I walk in, Rabbi, I’m not religious,’ and then we end up spending an hour talking," he relates. "A good chaplain does not preach and teach; a good chaplain is trained to have someone look within and draw upon their own spiritual tools — and we all have them — to help them at that moment. There is almost no one who won’t benefit from a visit from a chaplain."

Patients and families facing a crisis are often less concerned with a chaplain’s own religious affiliation than they are about the spiritual guidance that the chaplain can offer when needed.

"I have been a chaplain for seven years, and in that time I have found that lots of patients don’t care what my faith background is. They just want to know if I can help them through their crisis," says Jabril Rashad, an associate chaplain at Children’s Hospital of the King’s Daughters in Norfolk, VA. Rashad is one of only a handful of Muslim hospital chaplains in the United States.

Rashad says that while his fellow chaplains and many patients he encounters do not share the Islamic faith, the "universal" approach taken by many chaplains and patients has meant he has felt accepted by both groups.

"We share a lot and learn from each other," says Rashad. "When you see God in others, you can see God in yourself."

Sometimes, the chaplain’s role begins with being a communicator between the patient and physician. Funk says it’s not uncommon for patients to initially question whether a physician — for example, a specialist whom a patient has just met — understands what is important to the patient. Likewise, a physician finding resistance on the part of a patient to a particular treatment course might not initially see a spiritual or moral dilemma that a patient is feeling.

Chaplains tell of patients resigning themselves to letting a treatable illness take its course rather than seek a cure because they feel the illness is some sort of punishment for previous wrongful acts in their lives. Or they might assume — sometimes incorrectly — that a controversial method of treatment might violate their religious beliefs. By understanding and communicating the feelings of the patient, both physician and patient can often reach a conclusion that is in the best interest of the patient.

This doesn’t always mean that the patient is convinced to seek the medically recommended treatment, Funk says. Sometimes, religious or cultural beliefs require that a physician accept that a patient won’t be following his or her recommendations for care.

"There is a code of ethics for chaplains that’s a part of our training, and it emphasizes respecting people’s cultures and beliefs, no matter what our own are," says Funk, whose chaplain’s association is based in evangelical Christianity. "There are cultures that hold the belief that the soul is attached to or ingrained in certain parts of the body, so if amputation or removal of that body part or organ is the treatment indicated for their condition, then they are not going to want that surgery, so we have to help everyone involved deal with that. We have to respect the culture as well as the religious or spiritual beliefs."

Chaplains not only act as occasional intermediaries between caregivers and patients, but also between patients and their families, particularly when end-of-life decisions are being made. A patient refusing lifesaving treatment may need help in gaining the understanding, if not the agreement, of family members, and chaplains are sometimes called on to facilitate in these cases.

The medical field is increasingly relying on chaplains as integral components of the health care team.

"We are receiving more and more recognition from the medical community," Guss says. "Health care used to be based exclusively on the medical model, but spiritual, physical, and psychological [components] all are interrelated, and that is being recognized and incorporated into patient care."

Rashad points out, "In the hospital setting, I consider the mind, body, and soul, and take a holistic approach. The doctors take care of the body, and the chaplains take care of the mind and soul."

The comfort of having a chaplain present can be an important factor in a patient finding his or her emotional and spiritual bearings as he or she deals with a difficult health situation.

"I like to say we are the calm before, during, and after the storm," Rashad says. "Whether it’s to pray with them or to just sit with them as they clench a fist in frustration, we’re there through thick and thin."

Specialized training required

To become a chaplain in any clinical setting requires that the candidate earn a master’s degree in religion or theology, and then to complete additional training in clinical pastoral education at an accredited hospital.

"Also, an open mind and heart are important, and the ability to adjust," says Rashad. "Life is a teacher. You have to experience things that can’t be approached in academia, like dealing with families who have survived or barely survived a major crisis. Staff members commit suicide — nothing can prepare you for that.

"Then there are the miraculous things," Rashad continues. "Diseases, cancers that a person normally couldn’t overcome, and the person has overcome it."

The minimum continuing education is rarely enough to keep abreast of the changes in medicine, Funk says.

"You have to keep up, with all the advances in medicine," he observes. "If you are at a facility that doesn’t practice much in the areas of biotech and genetic manipulation, you might not read and study those areas, but then all of a sudden you realize that this is moving forward fast and you don’t understand it."

A decade ago, says Funk, physician-assisted suicide and other end-of-life issues were the hot ethical topics chaplains were contending with. They have been replaced by new questions arising from scientific advances in cloning and genetic manipulation.

Guss says possibly the greatest challenge for not only chaplains, but also all caregivers, is the mapping of the genome, which he says also is potentially the greatest breakthrough in medical science in this generation.

"The future is in genetic medicine, and our challenge is to learn about it and about the spiritual and emotional issues surrounding it," Guss predicts.

Caring for the caregivers

Chaplains are quick to point out that their role is not merely to serve the patients and their families. Hospital staff, including the clinical staff, frequently draw on the experience of chaplains to help them help their patients.

"Doctors approach a lot of ethical challenges, and they ask our opinion. We talk about that and discuss what will help them out," says Rashad.

Physicians, nurses, or hospital staff who are struggling with a bad patient outcome can come away with more peace of mind, he says, even if there are unanswered questions.

Roberts sees a chaplain as an "ambassador to the whole hospital," there to serve each person who is in the hospital, no matter if that person is a doctor, nurse, administrator, support staff, patient, or family member.

"I won’t forget doctors who just agonize over patients’ decisions," says Funk. "They’re left with an unhappy outcome, so chaplains can provide appropriate support to those on the health care team, as well."

Guss says that chaplains are not the only members of the medical community who can act as spiritual support. Peer groups among nurses and physicians often work to counsel clinical staff through emotionally difficult situations, with chaplains involved to "motivate and educate," he says.

"Hospital staff, from the physicians to the housekeeping staff, have personal problems that we can help put in perspective so that while they’re here [at the hospital], they can stay focused on the job," adds Rashad. "The reality is that not all surgeries go well, and they are left feeling, Well, where do we go from here?’"

Rewards for hospitals and chaplains

A consensus paper written by the five largest health care chaplaincy organizations in North America and published in 2001, Professional Chaplaincy — Its Role and Importance in Health Care,1 reports that the benefits to the hospitals served by professional chaplains are not just intangible, feel-good qualities.

According to the authors of the consensus paper, chaplains assist their institutions in obtaining and maintaining accreditation standards associated with patients’ rights to spiritual care and support. They can reduce a hospital’s exposure to litigation by mitigating situations in which patients and families are dissatisfied, angry, or threatening, and thereby potentially minimize legal costs.

The only published chaplaincy cost study, reported in 1995,2 reported that the services of professional chaplains range from $2.71 to $6.43 per patient visit — a cost that the consensus panel deemed cost-effective to the institutions.

But the true rewards, chaplains say, can’t be measured on paper.

"Chaplains provide the institution’s heart, and the rewards are what keep us doing the work we do," Roberts says. "It’s when you see someone who says they have no ability to cope with what they’re going through; and a week later, they’re on their way out, having used skills they didn’t even know they had."

Qualifications Matter

Posted By rendon on January 30th, 2014 in Northern Virginia Remodeling No Comments

Home Addition Northern VirginiaRendon Remodeling & Design Key Employees Earn a Prestigious Certification

The National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) has a rigorous certification process that, once successfully completed, affords the qualified remodeler superior credentials. The certification goes far beyond the technical aspects of the trade and incorporates key elements such as ethics, business skills, and legal matters associated with the industry. A NARI Certified Remodeler has been blessed as a highly qualified professional by a well-regarded industry leader.
According to the association – “NARI’s CR program measures skill and expertise valued not only by other professional remodelers, but by consumers as well. Highly respected by those who have achieved the designation, the CR program identifies professional remodelers who have undergone comprehensive review and testing in areas of business management, ethical conduct, and technical skills.  In addition, they must also adhere to NARI’s strict Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics. The NARI certification program assess the knowledge and skills of the remodeler in over 20 remodeling task areas including business methods and practices, building codes and construction law, planning and building site layout, and all trades skills required in remodeling your home.  Attaining this certification requires the candidate to have been working full time in the remodeling field for at least 5 years and passing a comprehensive assessment exam.  Preparation for this exam takes up to 16 weeks of intensive study and self-examination.  In addition Certified Remodelers are bound to abide by the NARI Code of Ethics and the NARI Standards of Practice.”
Why is hiring a qualified remodeler so important? Most states, including Virginia, require remodeling contractors to be licensed.  Proper insurances are also critical to the qualifications of a contractor, but not all contractors have gone the extra mile to acquire a special certification. If you are looking for a contractor, you will most likely be able to see the work previously performed by asking for examples and before/after photos. This will give you a good idea of the quality of their work and the outcome once the project was completed. This, however, will not give you insight into how it was to do business with this contractor. In an field with a history of ethics and professionalism complaints, it is extremely important for homeowners to have confidence in the company they have chosen to work on their most precious physical asset – their house.
Having a certification from the only independent association dedicated exclusively to the remodeling industry, puts any remodeler in a position that automatically engenders confidence from the homeowner. NARI is a not-for-profit trade association with more than 50 years of industry experience. When this organization certifies a remodeler through their challenging process, consumers can be sure they are selecting not just the most knowledgeable contractor in their area, but also one who respects ethical codes of conduct, demonstrates excellent business process, and an understanding of professionalism not seen in the general field. When it comes to people’s homes, knowing that the remodeling contractor chosen to work on it possesses these credentials is a huge benefit.0-m-new
Proudly we announce that both Michael and Joseph Rendon ( two of Rendon Remodeling & Design employees) were recently awarded the acclaimed NARI certification.  This is an honor the owner, Fred Rendon, has also held for many years. After considerable effort, we now possess the additional qualifications that take our already stellar reputation in the industry to the next level.
Contact us for an initial consultation, and let’s see what we can create together.

Johnson And Wales University Charlotte:
A Local Perspective

Find a Great Apartment Near Johnson And Wales University Charlotte

The areas around JWU Charlotte, the Third and Fourth Ward neighborhoods, there are a few nice places to eat. Alexander Michael’s is an extremely popular (and always packed!) American pub-style restaurant. It is very easy to miss, with its quaint, country-home exterior. The VGBG Beer Hall and Garden has impressive beers, a window to order food, an outdoor patio with games, and a cool atmosphere. Mattie’s Diner is close to VGBG, and the best place for breakfast. It’s a homey environment complete with juke boxes. The Little Village Grill is close to campus, and has the most delicious Greek and Italian food nearby. On campus, the Student Dining Center is open at 6am on school days, until 9pm, and on weekends, 11am to 7pm. Most students aren’t very big fans of this dining hall, but thankfully, within walking distance there is a Subway, Chick-Fil-A, Great Wok, The Cedar Street Tavern, Starbucks, and if you want to walk 10 minutes, a Dunkin Donuts. North Carolina is known for its lovely weather, though there are the occasional picky people who think it’s too hot in the summer. Summer days are usually in the upper 80s and low 90s. Winters can sometimes get very cold and a cold snap of days in the 30s is not unheard of, though generally winter days are expected to be in the upper 40s and 50s. Snow is rare, and maybe three inches will fall all year. May through July are incredibly sunny, while December and January are oftentimes cloudy. March sees the most rain. Tornadoes are a possibility in this region, and in 1994 a tornado hit about four miles from the center of Charlotte. Hurricanes can occasionally affect this region as well. The air quality, albeit often dry, is very good, and in several categories, like sulfur dioxide, significantly better than the US average.

We currently have apartments near Johnson And Wales University Charlotte available for rent. If you're not sure how much an apartment will cost, the table below shows the average price by size.

Vacation in Bressanone -
Holidays in beautiful South Tyrol

Climb the Peitlerkofel

Auf den Peitlerkofel

The Peitlerkofel, that boldy stretches into the sky over the head of the Lüsen valley, is one of the most beautiful mountains of the Dolomites with views in all directions.  The normal ascent on the southside of the mountain is a worthwhile and necessary tour for any mountain lover. Although at the summit there is a cabled climbing route that demands secure footing. It is to your advantage to bring a short rope for children and less practiced climbers. This tour is recommended only in favorable weather, and, in case of unsuspected bad weather, proceed with the greatest caution!

Tour description:
Travel from Lüsen by car to the end of the Lüsen valley, called Gunggan, 8 km up to the Würzjoch street, then continue on this street to the right to the switchback by Schartbach (1825 m). From there begin hiking on trail 1, and later trail 4, occasionally in switchbacks over stony ground, steeply climbing up to Peitlerscharte (2357 m). There you continue on a marked trail through the steep grassy hillside, and then to the rolling and grassy south flank, climbing in many short, steep, and strenuous switchbacks up to a grassy saddle (2765 m) and then to the summit on the cable-secured route over the last steep step to the cross at the summit (2875 m). A beautiful view will reward the great feat of the climb. The descent, which requires careful footing, follows the described ascent route back to the parking lot.

Reviews for Sushi King

This site is my favorite place. Of all restaurants I know I love it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to this restaurant. everytime I I need a proper dinner, this restaurant comes right away to my mind. fresh and many types of food and a rich cuisine.great team, and nice ambience. Also important, the price is fair. I tell about this place with no hesitation.

Ordered a big dinner for sushi night at home with friends. I'd been going to this neighborhood sushi restaurant since early 90s and moved away for a decade and recently moved back to the Westside. I remember the fish being as fresh as ever even during COVID-19 when restaurants can only do take out only. They were out of some of our favorites like monk fish liver and scallop hand roll but still the sushi was absolutely amazing, everything was well packed and our full review
This is the best sushi place in the whole world! I grew up coming here every single week, the service is amazing and the sushi chefs are wonderful people who are the best in the business. The best way to get the whole experience is to sit at the sushi bar! The misoyaki will melt in your mouth and you'll probably consider ordering another one it's so good. All of the nigiri is so fresh and phenomenal, I love the Tataki and Spanish Mackeral! The California Roll, is full review

Testing for Psychokinesis

The PSI Wheel

Many people have approached the Rhine indicating that they are able to produce movement in physical objects using only their intention or the influence of their thoughts. This is a very intriguing idea, and for years people have claimed this ability.

The Rhine does not provide any certification or verification of an individual’s ability to perform psychokinesis. The Rhine is focused on academic research and the creation of new technologies or applications for information gained through the academic study of PSI.

If you believe that you are able to produce psychokinetic activity, the Rhine may be interested in studying this ability. Before contacting the Rhine, we ask that you perform the following tests at home in order to verify that the activity is not due to factors that may have been overlooked in your previous demonstrations.

  1. Create a PSI Wheel (or a pin wheel)
    You will need a normal pencil eraser, a toothpick or a needle that has not been magnetized, and a fan made from paper or aluminum foil. Here is one example of how to make this type of wheel:

  2. Protect the wheel from the influence of air currents
    Place the entire wheel inside of a sealed environment. One option is to cover the wheel with a glass or plastic jar. Another is to use a large bowl or even a fish tank. The key is to prevent any air flow from penetrating the environment whether purposeful or not.

  3. Protect the wheel from the influence of static electricity
    Provide a method for grounding or avoiding static from influencing the experiment.

  4. Try to move the wheel in more than one direction.
    When you attempt to move the wheel, move it clockwise, stop it, and move it counterclockwise. A variety of movements will help to demonstrate the wheel is moving as a result of your intention.

  5. Try to move the wheel from a distance
    Move across the room and try this test again. Move into another room. Set up a webcam in one room and watch it from another room using Skype. Try to see if distance affects the process.

  6. Find a good camera and create a video of your experiment
    In your video,
    - Document the construction of the wheel,
    - Document the protections that you are using to avoid the influence of air, static, or other influences.
    - Document the entire environment around the wheel, including yourself and how you will be positioned in relation to the wheel.
    - Record the video with a wide shot that shows the entire environment and shows the wheel moving. Also use the zoom feature to show the wheel moving in both directions.

  7. If you are able to complete each of these steps successfully, contact the Rhine at research@rhine.org. A researcher will contact you to make arrangements to get a copy of your video for further analysis.

The Rhine does not provide any compensation for reviewing these videos, and does not guarantee that every video will be reviewed by a researcher. If we are able to review your video and we find that there is an opportunity for further research, we will contact you directly and discuss these issues further.

topic: west

a new covenant with nature

God gives the spark of life to Adam

It is no surprise that human rights as a formal system, as legislation, should have arisen from the two cataclysms of ‘civil war’ that the Europeans brought upon themselves, and into which they drew so much of the rest of the world. As a way of trying to avoid descent into the horrors of the Rape of Nanking, of the Eastern Front, and of the Holocaust, it is essential, that at the heart of our […]

competition versus brotherhood

A mania for competition so possesses our societies that it is hard to imagine any other way of being, and yet I think it is critical that we free ourselves from its grip. In the West, the Christian churches, from long habit, had an explanation for everything. Alas, with the rise of science, these churches chose to cling to Old Testament ‘certainties’, with the result that, when the cosmology of ‘Creation’ was overturned, the New […]

a bite of the cherry

policeman in front of a picture of Mao...

It seems that those of us who live in the West may need to get used to the fact that our economies are not going to return to constant growth. The belief that things are going to always continue to get better – at least in the sense of a constantly growing GDP – has always been a fantasy: constant growth of the kind we’ve experienced, that consists of consuming the Earth’s resources, presupposes that […]

The Master and the Emissary...

The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World is not a self-help book, nor is it one of those books of cod-philosophy that promise amazing (though ultimately ill-founded) insights into the modern condition. It is instead a carefully argued thesis meticulously supported by references to research, as well as by appeals to personal experience. Its core premise is that we possess a single consciousness, but two wills: one […]

50 in New York

ricardo in Time Square...

Something I’ve rabbited on about before is how the world is homogenising – the more I travel, the more it seems to me that everywhere is becoming the same. If this is even true for Sri Lanka, then how much more so is it for travelling between the UK and New York? But before I go into that (I think this is going to become quite a ramble, but hopefully you will forgive me, now […]

Ming vases…

Wen Zhengming painting

Even in childhood I was baffled as to why oil paintings sold in auction houses for countless millions, while equally exquisite works of art from other cultures seemed lucky if they fetched thousands. One exception is the ubiquitous ‘Ming vase’… examples of which appear in everything from Tin Tin to baroque palaces across Europe. Another are ancient artefacts, though these again seem to be valued less for their aesthetic qualities than for how close they […]

Moctezuma meets Cortez

When Cortez first met Moctezuma, the emperor of the Aztecs advanced towards him half-carried by a couple of his relatives, as if he were some fragile invalid. This affectation was one that Moctezuma could allow himself, lord as he was of the conquerors of Central America that, to its inhabitants, was the navel of the Earth and the greater and best part of the world. No doubt this kind of posturing was copied by lesser […]

The name (in local pronunciation Arcaton) comes from the Greek and Byzantine occupation dated back to the sixth century AD: "Archeion" is the name of a plant, the burr, which still grows spontaneously in some areas of the beach now occupied by the bathing establishments but which was once abundant on the desert shore of Riccione.
