5 Ways to Lighten Your Load | Apartment Therapy Los Angeles

by karlcow

1. Do You Need the Book? We started reading books on the kindle for iPhone and it's changing our whole approach to book buying. Not only are we not accruing physical books, but when a great book is recommended to us, we can download it immediately--very satisfying. Of course that doesn't help us with the books we've already got. But to thin them out we consider: if we had to move, would we bring them? And: in 10 years will I remember this book? If it's a yes then it's worth it. If no, it gets donated to a friend or a library.

Steve’s Bio: A Personal Perspective | Monday Note

by night.kame

Get thee to a physical bookstore, if you can find one, or to Amazon’s or Apple’s online dispensers, you won’t regret it.

Amazon ou Apple ? Pourquoi référencer les deux boutiques de livres électroniques les plus fermées du marché ? Elles seules ont le livre en question ? Non, toutes les boutiques généralistes du marchés l'ont. Elles ont besoin de publicité ? Hahahahahaha. Non, c'est juste de la propagande par omission, ou par aveuglement devant la réussite de ces systèmes clos, donc confortables.

The Frame: Japan marks 6 months since earthquake, tsunami

by karlcow

TOKYO (AP) -- Last Sunday was the six-month anniversary of the day the massive earthquake and tsunami devastated Japan's northeast coast. Some 20,000 people are dead or missing. More than 800,000 homes were completely or partially destroyed. The disaster crippled businesses, roads and infrastructure. The Japanese Red Cross Society estimates that 400,000 people were displaced. Half a year later, there are physical signs of progress. Much of the debris has been cleared away or at least organized into big piles. In the port city of Kesennuma, many of the boats carried inland by the tsunami have been removed. Most evacuees have moved out of high school gyms and into temporary shelters or apartments. Last week the Kyodo News agency distributed an amazing group of combination photographs showing three scenes. The first scene is right after the earthquake and tsunami hit, then three months later and finally, how the scene looks now. (44 images)

Baby Sleeping Problems and Its Solutions

by personmark
Baby sleeping problems are common during the first few moths after delivery as they are easily startled and have short sleep cycles – from light sleep to deep sleep and then back to light sleep again – which usually takes 50 to 60 minutes, therefore your baby normally wakes up every after an hour or even less. This is actually not a problem; rather, this is normal. However, baby sleeping problems may indicate a physical problem, which may prompt you to visit your pediatrician for a consultation. The Real Problems and the Solutions The inability of your baby to sleep well at night may be because of the environment –the noise, the smell, as well as the ambience matters! Babies are very sensitive beings. They may be unable to see or may be able to but not as clear as that of the adults, thereby allowing their other senses to work more keenly. If the environment does not have very good ventilation or does have a bad smell, the baby may not be able to sleep well, even adults for that matter! Also, if the surrounding is noisy, how will you be able to sleep, right? A very good environment conducive for sleeping must therefore be provided. Babies who are soaked wet with their diapers on are not able to sleep well. It is therefore right to check their diapers if it is full, making the babies feel uncomfortable. It is important to change them immediately in order not to disturb or cut short their sleep. There are also instances when babies get to feel too cold or too warm, making babies wake up in the middle of the night. The best thing to do is to provide warmth when she is cold, and to provide good ventilation if she feels warm. Simply put, just be there beside your baby during her sleep and make her feel comfortable all throughout the night. And more often than not, the reason why babies get to be awaken in the middle of the night is hunger. They have little tummies to fill their little amount of milk and food into, thereby making them feel hungry more often than adults. It is for this reason that feeding of the babies must be done every after 2 hours. Furthermore, babies may feel pain that is why they cannot sleep well during the night. If all of the above problems have been checked and nothing seems to satisfy the baby, maybe she is in pain. This should prompt you to visit your medical practitioner for consultation. Middle of the Night Awakening – A Survival Instinct of the Babies! There is also a good side on why babies awaken in the middle of the night. Since babies cannot communicate their needs yet, it is through waking up in the middle of the night and crying that they are able to deliver to you their message that they are either hungry, already soaked wet or feeling cold or warm. If they are not able to wake up in the middle of the night and not trouble you, how else would you know that they are hungry or that they needed something, right? Baby sleeping problems may not be problems at all but a message that your baby wanted you to receive. It is for this reason that you must rather be more thankful that your baby is trying to wake you up in the middle of the night than not at all! Your baby wanted to survive, so help her survive, not just through the night but through her entire life.

How Should You Practice After Training?

by Takwann
Once we finish a personal defense training class, a question that should remain in our minds is, “Where do I go from here?” We trainers almost universally say that you have to practice after a class to ingrain the skills you learned in order to achieve the unconscious competence necessary to prevail in a critical incident. In order to practice properly, you have to have a plan for it. The saying “Only perfect practice makes perfect” applies not only to the physical skills involved but also to the structure of what and how you practice.
