How to Use Essential Oils: A Step-By-Step Guide.
posted on July 11, 2014 by Rachel Callahan · 65 Comments Filed Under: "Deep" Thoughts by Rachel, Pop Post, This is TONGUE IN CHEEK People - Don't take me Seriously.
1. You will receive your first (and second, third, and four hundredth) introduction to Essential Oils via your favorite social network – most likely Facebook. This glorious day in your life will occur when you happen to mention any form of personal discomfort. A headache, scabies, a sword wound, or split ends. If the stars shine down upon your confession, you will have commenters on your status. These commenters will bring you into The Age of Aquarius Oil.
You have begun to step out of your chrysalis and into REAL LIFE.
2. You will want to keep things quiet at first – after all, oils are kinda crunchy-hippy-kale-eatin' stuff, and you might want to make sure they actually work before you say anything. So subtly sign up under another rep and receive your first shipment of oils.
Did I mention that they'll make it significantly cheaper for you to sign up as a rep than to just buy the stinkin' (and I do mean that literally) oils? That's okay, you'll tell yourself – I'm just doing it for the oils.
3. Receive your oils. You may find your nose hairs running for cover up into your sinus cavities upon the initial opening. Your children will hold their noses, screaming as they run from the Blessed Package. Don't worry – the whole city won't smell you when you start rubbing that stuff onto every square inch of your body – it will absorb and cure every ailment you didn't know you had.
4. This will not stop your husband from routinely commenting "What is that SMELL?!" when you come to bed at night.
5. Everyone tells you that a capsule of Peppermint and Lemon Oil a day will make you a better person, a lighter person, a more detoxified person, and a more energetic person. You will stay home that first day because you will absolutely be energetically running to the bathroom all day long.
6. Just like Cloth-Diapering, CrossFit, and Eating Organic, Oil Success doesn't really occur unless you share it on Facebook. So you will begin crafting your own statuses about these dews of the gods.
7. You quickly realize that in order to succeed in this Status-Eats-Status World, you will need to know how to defend your position against those who challenge your oils as perhaps not being the most pure, most miraculous, and least witchcrafty oil out there. So you study every oil exposé blog pinned on Pinterest. With the precision of a politician in run-off season, you will now be able to discredit the other brands in 140 characters and with an air of authoritative finality.
8. Your friends and family will be amazed and overjoyed at your new life success. They will also want relief from their periods and cysts and diphtheria! So they will sign up under you and YOU WILL BEGIN MAKING MONEY.
9. You will begin looking for opportunities to rub oils on everyone and everything in your household (the recliner is looking frayed? No worries! All it needs is a touch of Myrrh!"), but be prepared for your husband to refuse even the smallest amount of oils to cure his post-run aches and pains.
He is a MAN. He will heal NATURALLY.
But don't worry! Because there's now an oil called Mister.
What man could refuse an oil specifically for Misters?
10. You have learned so much, but will want to know the full breadth of your new abilities to cure with these oils, so you will buy the manual. There, you will read about which oils to use for Aneurysms, accidental Anthrax poisonings, Halitosis, and Dysentery! This is when you proceed to your medicine cabinet and throw out everything, declaring yourself to be the epitome of naturally cured perfection. You then go shopping and buy a new wardrobe with the money you will save on doctor co-pays this year.
11. …Until you realize that your bottle of Peppermint oil is now empty. And oh – so is the lemon. And Frankincense is how much to replace?? You can't live without Frankincense – Even Jesus didn't have to suffer that!
Why does "Into the Future" cost $22, but "Present Time" costs $82? I'd so pay four times more to skip a few days ahead, since Thieves did NOT keep these kids of mine from getting the stomach virus.
Does "Christmas Spirit" actually provide Christmas Spirit all year round, or only when seasonally appropriate? And if I rub it on my feet, am I going to look like a doofus yelling "MEEEERRRY CHRISTMAS!!" to everyone in the Food Court in the middle of May?
"Dragon Time." No questions there – I know exactly when I need that.
Is "Lady Sclareol" a mermaid, a Madame, or a feminine itch?
But questions are good! Because all of them can be answered in the three dozen Essential Facebook Groups of which you are now a member.
Now that you're informed, I promise to go study my manual and see which blend of Transformation, Envision, and Surrender I need to treat my sarcasm.

35 Things to Do in Birmingham.
I've lived in Birmingham my entire life. Seriously – even college. The longest I've ever been away from this city was six weeks at the age of 16 when I went overseas.
As a kid, Birmingham was clearly a dying city. My parents told stories of what it once was, but it was impossible to imagine. Downtown was boarded up, everything happened in the suburbs, and we were all bored.
In the past five years, my city has gone through a beautiful metamorphosis. Residents began having a new sense of optimism and burden to invest in the city. Things began to actually change, and all of a sudden, we had a vibrant, beautiful, exciting city.
It's officially summertime, and it's time to get out and explore the city – both the new and the old. If you're not from Birmingham, you're on your own. (And you should really consider moving here.) If you are from Birmingham, here are my suggestions.
1. Hike the trails at Red Mountain Park. [Free] They're beautiful, have fascinating iron mining relics, and some pretty stunning views. Make a checklist of the major lookouts and treehouses and find them all.
Some of the trails even look like this. How much more magical could Birmingham get?
2. Tour Birmingham's Local Coffee Shops. [Cheap] My favorites are Seeds Coffee Company, Church Street Coffee and Books, Octane, Urban Standard, The Red Cat, Hart and Soul, and O'Henry's. Tell me if you discover any more jewels.
3. Go shopping at The Grand River Outlet Mall. [Free to as much as you want to spend] – They have a great kid's play area, fantastic shops, and even better deals. Make sure you stop by the welcome center in the food court and get a coupon book.
4. Find the Leeds Memorial Park. [Free] The slides there are taller than any other slides in Birmingham. AND they still have a merry-go-round! If you have children who like thrills, it's great. And if they don't, there's a little kid park, too. If you need lunch afterward, check out Rusty's BBQ. Rusty will make you feel at home, and he has the best white sauce in the city.
5. Eat a hamburger and enjoy the views at Tip Top Grill on Shades Crest Road. [Super Cheap] And while you're there, walk down to Lover's Leap. Just hold your kid's hands well.
6. Visit Aldridge Gardens in Hoover. [Free] Take a stale bag of bread to feed the fish, ducks, geese, and turtles – they'll be expecting it. Also, find the totem pole on the other side of the lake – it's pretty fantastic.
7. Eat an outdoor dinner (or lunch) at Chez LuLu. [Moderate] Leave the kids with someone else if you can – it's quite romantic.
8. Go to a Movie in the Park at Avondale Park. [Free] The amphitheater there is fantastic, and they have a fantastic operation headed up by Marco of Silvertron Café, which is where you should eat before attending.
9. Hike The Ruffner Mountain Nature Preserve. [Free] A largely forgotten jewel of Birmingham, this mountainside is fantastic. The views are well worth the hike, with or without kids – just don't try to bring a jogging stroller.
10. Eat lunch at The Irondale Café (of Fried Green Tomatoes fame – the food and the movie), then watch trains go by. [Cheap] Make sure you appreciate train graffiti – it's quite magnificent.
11. Take the kids to The McWane Center. [Moderate] It's fun, sneakily educational, and is a great thing to do when it's too hot to go outside.
12. Go to an ArcLight Stories night. [Cheap, not with kids] This is a unique and fascinating event where several people tell short stories from their lives. You will laugh, you will cry, you will learn to appreciate humanity.
13. Cool down at Steel City Pops in Homewood. [Cheap] If you need lunch to boot, Nabeel's is around the corner and Little Donkey is next door. Tip: If you have a popsicle aversion like I do (even thinking about the feeling of biting into a popsicle makes me cringe,) get a milk-based one. They're soft and quite manageable.
14. Go to a movie at The Alabama Theatre. [Moderately Cheap] It's unforgettable.
15. Plan a walk downtown. [Free] You'll be amazed at the things you notice.
16. Go on a Scavenger Hunt at Crestline Park. [Free] The contest is closed, but you should still be able to find the clues!
17. Canoe the Cahaba River. [Moderate] I have very fond memories of doing this as a kid, and seriously want to do it as an adult. We did tube the Cahaba a few years ago, and I must say I was a fan of Lazy-Man's'-Canoeing.
18. Go on a Sunset Walk along the Ridges of Red Mountain. [Free] You knew I was going to suggest this, right? I guarantee it will change your outlook on the city forever.
19. Go to a Birmingham Barons game. [Moderately Cheap] Experience why this stadium is changing the face of Birmingham.
20. Visit the LightRails. [Free] It will make any night cheerier.
21. Take a short walk on the Irondale Furnace Trail. [Free] It's a fun and easy view of some of Birmingham's industrial history, as well as a gorgeous taste of nature.
22. Railroad Park. [Free] It's one of our favorite places to hang out after dinner as the sun is setting. They have playgrounds, lakes, walking trails, and more.
23. Discover the hidden trails at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. [Free] That place is GIANT. You have no idea.
24. Drive a little over an hour to Spring Valley Beach Water Park. [Moderate] It's been a few years since we've visited, but we loved it. They have waterslides, a huge pool, and they allow you to bring in all of your own food.
26. Try out the Zip Lines at Red Mountain Park. [Moderate] We did this and it is fantastic. And although it makes a great date, kids can do it as well – that is, if your kids are braver than mine.
27. Visit Vulcan, of course. [Cheap] The free park is improved and better than ever, but it's worth a few bucks to go to the top and see his view of the city. Also, those few bucks get you into the museum, which is always worth a walk-through.
28. Visit Tannehill State Park. [Cheap] I feel like half my childhood happened at Tannehill. And they're all good memories.
29. Visit The Birmingham Zoo. [Moderate] Go in the mornings – the animals are always perkier, unlike me.
30. Walk along The Jemison Park Nature Trail. [Free] It's beautiful, easy to manage, and shady. It also has a unique way of getting across the creek.
32. Take a tour of Sloss Furnaces. [Cheap] Make sure you bring your camera – it's more beautiful than you might think.
33. Head to the Gardendale Splash Pad. [Free] They also have an adjoining playground when it's time to dry off.
34. Go on a drive through Mountain Brook and see who can spot the biggest house. [Free] Feel free to pretend that Birmingham's royalty lives here.
35. Go to Bessemer and eat at The Bright Star. [Moderate] You'll immediately feel like you're stepping back into Birmingham's past.
Enjoy your summer. Explore. And let me know what you find.
And if you're not in Birmingham, what do I need to come experience in your city?

I love you. I really do. I adore your wide aisles, your children's clothes and shoes, your lack of Walmartian bedlam, your maternity camisoles that actually go over a pregnant belly unlike Motherhood Maternity's which don't make it past a gestating ribcage, your pleasingly geometric notebooks and bedspreads and various other pretty things, your Starbucks in every store, and your selection of chocolate.
Even though all those rumors of you being a French company are false, it seems that you don't understand the English Language. Or at least with the same breadth and detail as us consumers.
Clearance. What does the word mean to you? To us, and by us I mean all humans, we hear "clear" which means that you're trying to get rid of an item – perhaps seasonal, perhaps not popular, perhaps discontinued.
Clearing out unwanted inventory is something we like being a part of. But only when properly motivated.
That's right, Target. 15% off is NEVER clearance. It's barely enough to make me consider getting something I do need, let alone something I don't.
You need to take a moment to recognize that Publix routinely marks regular products down to "Buy One Get One Free", or effectively 50% off, and doesn't even make a big deal about it.
I know, right? I bet you need a diaper just thinking about it.
Too bad for you they're not *really* on sale.
Publix has opened Oz's curtain for us – we now know that you big retailers are capable of charging us half as much and still making money.
And you need to quit lying to us.
So. For you and for all of your retail friends, here is a helpful glossary.
Good Deal: You have my permission to use this term when your regular price beats over half of your competitor's prices. I appreciate you letting me know about your good deals and I will reward you accordingly. However, you need to know that this term alerts me to the fact that you may never have this item on sale, so I might watch for it in your competitor's sale papers.
Other acceptable terms: Everyday low price, everyday values.
Reduced: You may use this term when you've lowered your prices by ten cents or more. Don't use it on a penny – we'll see that and Instagram your ridiculousness in a hot second. And just so you know, 15% off definitely falls under the "Reduced" category – so invest in more Reduced signs and less Clearance signs.
Other acceptable terms: markdown, price reduction.
Coupon: DO NOT print me a coupon at the register for 25¢ off six cans of dog food. First of all I don't have a dog and second of all if I did I wouldn't, couldn't, would rather die before keeping up with a piece of paper for two weeks that will save me 4.17 cents off of each item. I could pick up that much money in the parking lot if I needed it.
Here's the coupon guideline. If it's under a dollar, I won't ever use it. And really if I'm being honest, if it's under five dollars, I'll probably forget I have it. Okay – if you really want me to use your stupid coupon it better be fifty dollars off a product that costs ten.
Sale: To be officially recognized as a sale, the item in question must be at least 25% off. NO EXCEPTIONS. 24% off is simply a markdown – don't try to fleece us. Sale also inherently implies that it will be off-sale at some point in the future, so if that is not the case, you may call it a Permanent Markdown – just because the price is permanent does not a clearance make.
Clearance: Using the term "Clearance" for less than 50% off is like calling a bumblebee honey – it's WRONG, and I get really upset if I accidentally bite. Half off is the absolute MINIMUM, guys. When you find yourselves starting to falter on this issue, just remember Publix. BOGO every day.
BOGO: BOGO stands for "Buy one, get one free." It does NOT stand for "Buy one, get one half off" or "Buy one, get one 25% off" or "Buy One Get this other random piece of crap for free." If you break this sacred rule, then I will never be your friend.
Blowout: A blowout must be 75% off or more (unless we're talking about the hair process, in which case it's a stupid name.) Blowout implies "this is the best deal you'll ever find on this product." And, as I'm a good deal finder, you better work for it. 90% off is preferred.
Event: Ain't nobody got time for events, unless you're giving away free stuff. And it better be an entire cart of free stuff. So if you're gonna have a Tampon Event and I read your fine print that tampons are 20% off and THAT'S what you're calling an event, I'm gonna sic all my Event Planner friends on your PR people. And Event Planners are a group of humans that are not fun when they're indignant – take my word for it.
There. That's not too hard to follow, is it?
THEN WHY AM I STILL SEEING 15% OFF CLEARANCE IN ALL THE STORES?!
I'll be practicing my calm breathing until you fix it.


Today's hike was a solo* mission today which was okay with me. There are few things more cathartic than sitting on open ledges enjoying amazing views, fresh air and beautiful weather while being alone with your thoughts looking out into the world. And I could not think of a better place to go than my favorite spot in Maine – the Evans Notch area. I love this area because it is far less popular than other hiking destinations. This was clear today with no one else being on the trail at all. Being mindful of my training needs I wanted to try to get the 7.4 up and back along the back side of the Baldface Circle done in about 4 hours.
I made decent time getting up to the shelter (2.5 miles 1600′ gain) completed in an 1 hour 40 minutes. I felt like I could have done even better, but the snow was really hard to travel on because it was not deep enough for snowshoes and it was too deep to bare-boot it. On top of that the snow was really loose, wet and soft so regardless if I had my snowshoes on or just my micro-spikes, I was sliding around everywhere. I used my micro-spikes for the first 1.5 mi and then I was high enough where the snow was somewhat deep enough where I could move a little better on snowshoes. The most nerve-wracking part of that is that you never know where your knees or ankles will go so it is hard to keep up a good head of steam for fear of rolling over an ankle or popping out your knee. As it was, by the time I got back to the car my knee was absolutely killing me.
After the shelter the real challenge began. In the approach up to the ridge through the Alpine Zone (about .7 miles and 900' of vertical) there was no sign of a trail. Foot prints were obliterated and cairns and blazes were nowhere to be seen. The snow was deep –about 6-8 feet is my estimation – but it was too steep and loose on the top for snowshoes, so I ended up switching back to my micro-spikes. This allowed me to have a better feel for my foot placement and more control. I ended up wasting a bunch of time picking a way up without being really sure I was anywhere near the trail. Finally, the route that I was on got too steep for my comfort level and after a brief, unexpected slide of about 6-8 feet (which definitely made my heart rate up) I opted to call it a day and sat down for some lunch.
It was pretty frustrating because I would estimate that I was about 300' and .25 miles from the ridge line which only put me .75 miles from the summit, but since I was solo and there were zero signs of any other hikers anywhere on the trail, I felt it was the right decision, after all the mountain is not going anywhere. After lunch I turned back and raced down as fast I could, slippin' and slidin' the whole way down. But all is well that ends well.
My estimate is that I did about 6 miles up and back with about a 2100' gain in 3 hours 57 minutes. All in all I am on track and most importantly, I made it back down. So, that will be good for a win in my book, any day.
*A quick note on hiking solo: One of my Old Man's favorite pieces of universal advice is "Don't be stupid." Hiking solo can be dangerous and even on routine hikes, accidents can happen. If you plan to hike solo be safe, be smart and make sure that you have a plan including cut off times for turning back and so forth. And always, be it hiking solo or not, let multiple people know where you are going and what your anticipated timeline is. Hike Safe.

What is Kodály Music Education?
Kodály Music Education
What is the American Kodály Institute?
The American Kodály Institute, founded in 2000 by Amy Branum Huggins, is a teacher training organization that offers a four-summer master's degree program for music educators, leading to Kodály certification and an advanced degree. AKI was formed in response to requests from music educators in Maryland and surrounding states for a Kodály certification program located in a geographic area convenient to them, and to provide a pool of music educators to fill the growing demand for Kodály-trained master teachers.
AKI's highly successful program attracts graduate students from across the United States and international students. Originally established as a division of the Children's Chorus of Maryland, then as an independent non-profit corporation, AKI is now a division within the School of Education at Loyola University Maryland.
Endorsed by the Organization of American Kodály Educators as a certification program, AKI's program emphasizes materials, methods, and sequencing appropriate for American students in American schools. It is unique among Kodály certification programs in its comprehensive approach, which includes training in vocal development and pedagogy, movement, application of current research into how children learn music, and accompaniment skills on folk instruments. The core faculty members are nationally- and internationally-known certified Kodály specialists with extensive experience teaching children and training music educators. AKI's program has the support of the Maryland State Superintendent of Schools and the music supervisors of the public school systems in the state of Maryland, and is nationally endorsed by the Organization of American Kodály Educators.
What is AKI's mission?
The mission of the American Kodály Institute is to:
Meet the continuing educational needs of music educators by providing a comprehensive, graduate level teacher-training program that specializes in Kodály-inspired music education and incorporates the findings of current research in the field of music learning theory.
Apply the educational principles of 20th-century Hungarian pedagogue Zoltán Kodály in a way that is relevant to American students in the American schools of the 21st-century.
Develop master music educators for the 21st-century equipped with the knowledge, skills, and tools to work toward Kodály's vision of universal music literacy.
What is the Kodály approach to music education?
Zoltán Kodály (1882–1967), a Hungarian composer, ethnomusicologist and educator, inspired this approach to music education. Deeply concerned about the quality of the musical training available to children and teachers in Hungary in the 1920's, he encouraged his colleagues and students to travel throughout Europe in search of the best models for teaching music. Their findings formed the basis for a comprehensive, child-developmental approach to music education that integrates the most effective and successful ideas, techniques, and tools for music instruction. Based on singing, it develops in students the ability to listen with understanding, perform with artistry, read, write, improvise, and compose music. This approach is now known internationally as Kodály Music Education.
The cornerstones of the Kodály philosophy are as follows:
That music literacy is the right of every human being.
That singing should be the foundation of music education.
That music education must begin with the very young.
That the folk songs of a child's own culture constitute his musical mother-tongue and should be the vehicle for early instruction.
That only music of genuine artistic value (both folk and composed) should be used in teaching.
That the sequencing of music instruction should be based on child-developmental principles.
That only the most skilled, well trained artist-teacher-scholars are worthy of teaching children.
Some of the tools used in implementing the Kodály philosophy include:
Movable-do solfa (borrowed from England)
Solfa hand signs (adapted from those of John Spencer Curwen of England)
Rhythm syllables (adapted from those of Emile-Joseph Cheve of France)
Eurhythmic activities (adapted from those of Emile Jaques-Dalcroze of Switzerland)
Emphasis on pentatonic music for young children (Both Carl Orff of Germany and Rudolf Steiner of Austria came to the same conclusion about this developmentally-appropriate practice.)
The findings of the latest research in Music Learning Theory confirm the validity of the Kodály sequence, tools, and techniques, and also point to the importance of some additions and refinements. (The American Kodály Institute has pioneered curriculum design that implements these additions and refinements, resulting in even more remarkable success in the classroom than that achieved using an ordinary Kodály program.)
Throughout the world, the Kodály approach to music education is cultivating in students a life-long enjoyment of music and the ability to work with music knowledgeably and comfortably as a language shared by all people.
Kodály Quotes
"Our age of mechanization leads along a road ending with man himself as a machine. Only the spirit of singing can save us from this fate."
"Music is a manifestation of the human spirit, similar to language. Its greatest practitioners have conveyed to mankind things not possible to say in any other language. If we do not want these things to remain dead treasures, we must do our utmost to make the greatest possible number of people understand their idiom."
When asked at what age music education should begin, Kodály replied, "Nine months before the birth of the mother."
"It is much more important who is the music teacher in Kisvárda than who is the director of the opera house in Budapest…for a poor director fails once, but a poor teacher keeps on failing for 30 years, killing the love of music in 30 batches of children."
How to choose a Kodály certification program
Does the program follow OAKE (Organization of American Kodály Educators) guidelines?
Students at Levels I, II, and III should be receiving training in Musicianship, Pedagogy, Materials, Conducting Choir, and Special Studies such as folk instruments, folk dance, and voice development.
Who are the instructors?
Instructors should be experts in their fields. In addition to their expertise for teaching adults, they should have extensive experience teaching children from culturally and economically diverse backgrounds in a variety of settings and situations.
Is the program up-to-date?
Cutting-edge teacher training includes study of Music Learning Theory and applications of current research into how children learn music.
Is the program relevant to my teaching situation?
In addition to training in personal musicianship and vocal development, students should receive hands-on, practical training in the curriculum, sequencing, lesson design techniques, strategies, materials, and teaching styles that get results with today's American students. Teaching materials and the sequence of pedagogical elements should be drawn from the rich and diverse heritage of American folk song.

Pursuing Justice, Together
When students enroll in the undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education programs at Loyola's School of Education, they are welcomed into a vibrant and diverse community of faculty, staff, students, and alumni who are engaged in ensuring an inclusive educational system that actualizes social justice.
LaShanda
"I chose Loyola's School of Education for the personalized support from my instructors. They always consider my busy work and my family life, and they established an open line of communication. "
"With 250 neighborhoods, art, culture, professional sports, music, and an amazing food scene, it's impossible to run out of things to do and places to explore off-campus. Loyola students quickly learn why Baltimore's nickname is Charm City. "
Maria Hagen
"The values of the Jesuits when it comes to education shapes Loyola's program. It was a big influence on teaching candidates to respond to the individual student, to be driven by their needs."
Margarita Gomez, Ph.D.
"I am particularly interested in developing assessment tools that measure the cultural and linguistic competencies that multilingual and multicultural students bring to schooling."

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to get my hands on an advance copy of Amy Palanjian's latest book, So Pretty! Felt, which is loaded with 24 super pretty DIY ideas all made with felt. Felt is a an old school crafting favorite of mine, namely because it's inexpensive and forgiving. It comes in loads of great colors, it's easy to work with and it has a certain charm that I just love. Plus, Amy is the former deputy editor of ReadyMade so you know the lady knows her stuff.
What I love about this book is the range of fabulous projects that Amy includes, all of which are really approachable even if you're not a sewing pro. (Because, guys, I am the farthest thing from a sewing pro you'll ever meet.) Plus the photography and styling is lovely and the book itself is just beautifully designed. Some of my favorite projects are the little felt cupcake flags and the dainty felt bunting – so perfect for parties! Or for yourself, the felt earrings and gorgeous felt statement necklace are totally my groove. Add in a whole host of sources for supplies and inspiration and this is a truly fabulous little tome for you crafty types. Want to see more? Pop over to our Facebook page for more photos and thoughts about the book. Enjoy!

Territory and statisticsEdit
Church of Saint Andrew, Acre.
The archeparchy extends its jurisdiction to Melkites of Israel, especially of Galilee. The headquarters of the archeparchy (archdiocese) is Haifa, where the Saint Elias Cathedral is located. The Melkite Greek Catholic Archeparchy of Akka counted 76,700 baptized members,[1] and had a territory subdivided into 33 parishes in 2012.[citation needed]
As of 2014 the Melkite Greek Catholic Church was the largest Christian community in Israel, with roughly 60% of Israeli Christians belonging to the Melkite Greek Catholic Church.[2]
The city of Haifa has the largest Melkite Greek Catholic community in Israel, followed by the cities of Nazareth and Shefa-Amr. Melkite Greek Catholics live in a number of other towns in Galilee either singly or mixed with Muslims, Druze and other Christian communities, such as Abu Snan, Arraba, Bi'ina, Daliyat al-Karmel, Deir Hanna, Eilabun, Hurfeish, I'billin, Isfiya, Jadeidi-Makr, Jish, Kafr Kanna, Kafr Yasif, Kisra-Sumei, Maghar, Mazra'a, Muqeible, Peki'in, Rameh, Ras al-Ein, Reineh, Sakhnin, Shefa-Amr, Tur'an, Yafa an-Naseriyye and others have a presence of Melkite Greek Catholic communities too as do other mixed cities, especially Jerusalem and Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Ramleh, Lod, Acre, Nof HaGalil, and Ma'alot Tarshiha.[3] It is reported that all the inhabitants of Fassuta and Mi'ilya are Melkite Christians.[4]
Ancient Ptolemais-Acre was visited by Paul of Tarsus during his trip described in chapter 21 of the Acts of Apostles. Soon, the city was a strong Christian community. In the third century was established headquarters of an ancient episcopal see here and the capital of the bishop of the diocese, which is suffragan of the Melkite Greek Catholic Archeparchy of Tyre, referring to the ancient period in Ptolemais in Phoenicia, called Acre in the Crusader period.
In 1753, the see was restored as a Melkite diocese by Patriarch Cyril VI Tanas and attached once again to Tyre, which had become independent from Jerusalem. However, the Melkite bishops of Acre began to reside there only in 1804.[5]
Before 1932, the jurisdiction of Acre included Transjordan. The see became an Archeparchy on 18 November 1964 with the Papal Bull Apostolic constitution of Pope Paul VI[6] and includes all Galilee.

450 MW Phase II Baglihar Power Project to Start Soon
Posted date: September 05, 2013 In: Hydro Power, News | comment : 0
The work on Baglihar Power Project Stage II is to commence shortly as Jammu and Kashmir government plans an additional generation capacity of 9,000 MW in the state in the next few years.
"The foundation stone of stage-II of the (Baglihar) project will be laid shortly. This would be a reiteration of the commitment of the government to bring a turnaround in the state's economy by tapping the huge hydro potential of the state, estimated at 20,000 MW, in a systematic and time-bound manner," an official spokesman said.
The Board of Directors of Jammu and Kashmir State Power Development Corporation (JKSPDC), which met in Srinagar yesterday, has already approved a capacity addition of 9,000 MW in the state during the 12th and 13th Plans, the spokesman said.
He said the commissioning of the 450 MW Baglihar Stage-II would be an important milestone in this regard.
This is part of continued efforts of the state government led by Omar Abdullah to bridge the supply-demand gap with respect to electric supply in the state, he added.
"Baglihar Project has been conceived on River Chenab as run-of-river scheme with a generation capacity of 900 MW of power, to be developed in two stages of 450 MW each, with a common dam near Ramban," he said.
The Stage-I has already been completed.
The Baglihar Hydro Electric project is an attractive proposition to address the issue of increase in demand of power, the spokesman said.
He said the second phase of the project having three units with an installed capacity of 150 MW each, will generate 1,302 MW of clean and green power, earning annual revenue of aboutRs. 500 crore.
The total project cost is estimated at Rs. 3,113.19 crore and is expected to be commissioned in August 2015.
The financial closure of the project has already been achieved with a loan component of Rs.2,179.23 crore sanctioned by PFC (Rs. 1,679.23) and JK Bank (Rs. 500 crore).


As National Newspaper Week continues (where have you BEEN?!?), I took the opportunity to write about some of the reasons I've enjoyed my 17 years here at our small-town newspaper as a columnist and journalist — and now as its editor.
Over the last several years I've heard many people comment how the newspaper industry is a dying institution thanks to the digital age and access to instant information. While it has certainly impacted the larger news formats, I have to disagree with their prognosis when it comes to the continued relevance of small-town papers. I believe they provide our communities with perspectives, information and a voice like no other resource. More than news pushes and canned feeds from automated sources, small-town newspapers offer the most true reflection of their readership and the commuities they serve.
As you probably noticed (if not, please pretend you did) that I have been absent from my blog the last few weeks.
While I'd like to say it's because my vacation spot in the Caribbean was too remote for Wi-Fi, it actually had less to do with banana drinks and tanning lotion, and more to do with a "perfect storm" of life-changing events that I am just now getting a handle on.
The short version? Over the last three weeks I was promoted to Editor at our newspaper (See the card? That makes it official!), my new book was released and I become Membership Chairman for the National Society of Newspaper Columnists (NSNC).
Oh, and somewhere in there I turned 50.

A Stroke of Luck
As an entrepreneur in his 20s and 30s, Sean Entin used his boundless energy to build an almost perfect life for himself and his young family. He developed new companies, lived on the beach, and trained to stay in peak physical shape. But in 2011, that world collapsed.
At the age of 39, Entin suffered a massive stroke. Since then, he has been fighting his way back—not only to rebuild his body, but to launch a second act helping other stroke survivors.
"God wanted me to take a new journey, a new path. I call it a stroke of luck," says Entin, 49, of Tarzana, California.
Go, Go, Go
Entin's drive to create new businesses started early. At age 21, while earning a degree in business administration and management with an emphasis on entrepreneurship, he was featured on the cover of the business section of the Los Angeles Times for launching a teen dance club.
After graduation from the University of Southern California, he produced feature films, commercials, music videos, and a television show. He became one of the first fight managers in the mixed martial arts world, representing big names in the field, such as Mark Kerr and Tim Sylvia.
Later, he moved from Los Angeles to San Diego to work with two start-up companies, collaborating with basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal.
"I was raising money, building my companies, all the time looking for something new," Entin says. "I was always connecting people. I was wound up too fast and too hard. I was go, go, go. I didn't slow down, and something was bound to happen."
By age 39, Entin was on top of the world. He lived on the beach in San Diego with his wife and two daughters, then ages 18 months and four years. "I love being a dad," he says. "I was born to be a father. We were always off to the beach, the zoo, Sea World."
Like a Sledgehammer
By this time, Entin was involved with teaching entrepreneurship skills to Navy SEAL veterans. He also trained with them in mixed martial arts. "I loved the sport. I loved athleticism," he says. But in the fall of 2011, when Entin was doing a mixed martial arts workout, he got choked out.
"I passed out and wasn't able to tap out," Entin says. He went home that afternoon knowing something was wrong with his throat.
For about four weeks after the incident, Entin continued to run his business and jet around the country despite the pain on the right side of his throat. On Thanksgiving weekend, he and his family were celebrating the holiday with friends in San Luis Obispo, California, when things got worse.
"I woke up the night of Thanksgiving, and the room was spinning," Entin says. "It felt like someone was bringing a sledgehammer to my head."
He walked to the bathroom. "As I looked in the mirror, the left side of my face was drooping badly. My face was ash gray," Entin says. "I couldn't speak, and I lost movement in my left arm." At that moment he asked his wife, Stephanie, to call his dad, a retired medical doctor in Tarzana.
"I think my son is having a stroke," Dr. Allen Entin said. "Call the paramedics right now."
Entin was rushed to a nearby hospital, then medevacked to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, where Alois Zauner, a top neurosurgeon, began treating him.
After several procedures didn't work, Entin was put in a coma for 10 days. Then the surgeon performed a craniectomy and temporarily stored a piece of his skull in his abdomen to reduce the swelling on his brain.
When Entin awoke from the coma, his father told him he was a paraplegic, paralyzed on his left side.
"I couldn't stand up. I couldn't walk," Entin says. "I had a helmet on my head to protect my brain. I had a feeding tube. I had a peripherally inserted central catheter line going from my arm into my heart, and I had a scar on my head shaped like a horseshoe." He was also frail, having dropped from a fit 175 pounds to 140.
I Can, I Shall, I Will
Entin was taken for inpatient neurorehabilitation at a hospital near his home in San Diego. "The first neuropsychiatrist who got a hold of me ran a couple of quick tests, and she said, 'The right side of your brain is dead. Don't think about driving, working, or walking for a long time.'"
He fired her.
Then he brought in a team of people who believed in him and adopted his new mantra: I can. I shall. I will. "I kept saying to myself every day, 'Put yourself in the mindset that you can do anything and nothing is impossible.' I knew if I kept moving," Entin says, "I was going to keep improving."
What motivated him the most was the thought of not being able to hold, hug, or kiss his daughters. Entin says the greatest joy of his life comes from spending time with Savannah, now 14, and Shiloh, who is 11. "They are my why. My daughters are the reason I wanted to walk again, not sit in a wheelchair."
So, he worked from early morning until the evening, even calling in medical professionals on the weekends. "I called it my boot camp," Entin says. "I couldn't even sit up straight. I lost the whole left side of my body from my vision to hearing to swallowing to walking. I had to relearn to walk, dress, shower, and use the toilet."
After his stint in rehab, he went back home, but it was too hard on his wife to take care of two young children and him, so Entin moved back in with his parents in Tarzana. "I needed to heal. I needed to do my therapies," he says.
Of course, there were days and moments when he wanted to give up.
"The physical side is painful. But the emotional trauma and the mental anguish was harder than the physical stuff at times," Entin says. His rehabilitation took a toll on the people he loved—his parents, his family, friends, and his marriage, which ended in divorce. "Everybody felt so helpless, so angry, and so exhausted because they didn't know what to do for me."
A sense of humor helps, he says: "Humor heals, but it takes time to get through the pain, the sorrow, the depression, and the darkness." Once you get through that, he says, your light shines brightly on everybody.
About 800,000 Americans suffer a stroke each year, and approximately two-thirds of these individuals survive and require rehabilitation, according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.
Many survivors can have prolonged recovery and some are left with residual neurological deficits. In fact, complete recovery can take months or even years.
That is why, in 2018, Entin founded strokehacker.com and the associated Stroke Hacker Community, with one simple goal in mind: helping others hack their strokes or traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).
His work includes one-on-one coaching, encouraging survivors to face new challenges in their lives and helping them begin to plan a recovery road map.
When Entin is not doing national TV appearances or podcasts to tell people what's possible with a resilient attitude, he works with the families of survivors.
"You have to get the people around the traumatic survivors involved," Entin says. His neurologist, S. Thomas (Tom) Carmichael, chair of the Department of Neurology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, agrees. "Survivors need a team of supporters," Carmichael says. "They need a network of people who will help them recover, and they need a process."
In addition to strokehacker.com, Entin has created Move 2 Improve, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation working on rehabilitating those who have suffered TBIs. Between his endeavors with the nonprofit and strokehacker.com, Entin's goal is to help transform the lives of 1 million people overcoming any kind of traumatic injury—whether it's a stroke or spinal cord injury—by 2030.
"Sean is an enormous force for good for those around him," Carmichael says. "He sees the good in people and brings out the best in them, urging them on to further achievement."
Entin never gives up, says Gloria Rios, his athletic trainer for the past five years and co-founder of the Stroke Hacker Community. "He always has hope, even when he's down," Rios says. "The one thing he didn't lose through his stroke is his drive to excel and continue to look out for other people."
Entin does rehabilitation three times a week and is seeing improvements. But the signs of stroke are noticeable. "My left arm is still weak, my left fingers don't work as well as they should, and I walk with a limp," he says.
However, he is not angry about what happened to him.
"This was God's way of me becoming someone new and better," Entin says. "My stroke gave me a deeper understanding of kindness and compassion and most importantly, allowed me a chance to make a difference for others."
The Stroke Hacker
Recognized as a thought leader and speaker in the stroke survivor community, Entin is helping survivors and those around them find new ways to work through challenges, break through plateaus, and begin planning their recovery based on tailored advice.
The Stroke Hacker methodology uses a simple, yet powerful approach.
Ask the important questions. What is your current situation and what do you want to achieve? What is your perspective on your situation, and how does that need to change to get there? What are you doing to accomplish your goals, and what behaviors do you need to change?
Assess opportunities. Each stroke survivor's situation is unique and so are the opportunities available to them. With the support of the Stroke Hacker Community, those overcoming TBIs will have an expert in their corner to help them navigate the host of offerings and opportunities, such as modified therapies to best serve individual needs and custom planning to get them closer to recovery and independence.
Work together to achieve the unbelievable. Overcome difficulties and achieve a new reality with a shared commitment and accountability. Your success is Stroke Hacker's success.
For those who have suffered brain injuries, the Stroke Hacker Community is a place to share stories, accomplishments, and tips for improving overall health and wellness after a TBI.

Many ad professionals look at things like RPM and CPM as metrics to help them optimize their ad earnings. Through years of research, Ezoic has learned that neither RPM nor CPM metrics are particularly valuable when you are talking about measuring website monetization as a whole. Higher CPMs and higher RPMs do not necessarily equal more revenue!
Your website receives a fixed number of visitors. As such, your goal should be to maximize the amount of revenue that you earn per visitor (or session). CPM does not measure that in any way. What is CPM? It is the revenue generated from every 1,000 ad impressions that were rendered in the browser. This is not the same thing as revenue earned from visitors. Ezoic uses EPMV as a measurement to track revenue improvements overall.
Depending on what you use as your base unit (pageviews or ad impressions), it is a measure of the revenue earned per page viewed or per ad viewed. Neither metric is particularly valuable when you are talking about a website as a whole. Furthermore, EPMV accounts for a wide range of contributory measurements: CPC/CPM/RPM/PV/V etc. which is why we find it to be the most accurate measurement of how well the website is doing overall.
Thank you for reading this article! For help or advice about Session Earnings monetization, email support@ezoic.com and speak to one of our site specialists.

Email marketing is undoubtedly one of the most impactful tools in your digital marketing toolkit. Everyone uses email.
Email marketing is the third most influential source of information among B2B audiences. It comes in behind only colleague recommendations and industry-specific thought leadership.
86% of business professionals prefer email when communicating for business purposes.
Email subscribers are 300% more likely to share content on social media than leads that came through another channel.
73% of millennials identify email as their preferred means of communication.
The DMA's National Client Email Report of 2015 stated that email marketing produced an ROI of 3800% according to their study.
If you aren't already integrating email marketing into your marketing automation strategies — you should be! It's simply too powerful to be overlooked.
But you can't expect to rely on sending emails by hand and have them generate the kind of results that we see in the statistics above. Email marketing is at its most effective when it is delivered sequentially in an automated way — also known as an email sequence.
The name tells you a lot, but just to make sure that everyone is on the same page let's define what an email sequence is.
An email sequence is a series of time-based emails that are automatically sent out at predetermined times. There may also be triggers that initiate the first email to go out. For instance, your prospect may receive a "Welcome" email when they first sign up for your list, then receive emails three days later, seven days later, and ten days later as you deliver important information about your company or product to them.
Email sequences give you a simple and straightforward way to continue a relationship with a prospect without having to spend the time sending emails by hand.
Why Are Email Sequences so Important?
You can't expect to handle all of your important communications and marketing correspondence by hand. Email sequences provide you with an automated way to deliver ongoing communications to your leads, prospects, and customers while you strive to build a solid foundational relationship with them.
Email sequences can be timed so that your emails arrive when they are most likely to have an impact. For instance, an email that upsells an eCommerce purchase with several related accessories could be timed to arrive just moments after the first purchase.
Email sequences are used to move your customers through the customer journey. They can be tailored to specific buyer personas to ensure that your messaging speaks to the topics and considerations that they consider the most important as they relate to your product.
The best thing about email sequences is that there isn't a really narrowly defined use case — any company can benefit from them.
Now we'll dive into the different types of common email sequences that companies usually launch early on in the process of building out your marketing automation processes.
There are some common types of email sequences that all companies can benefit from. Although the steps that each sequence walks a customer through will be dependent on your product and industry, although each will follow some familiar beats.
This is the email sequence that your subscribers will receive when they first join your email list. It provides some basic information, thanks them for joining your email list, and begins to set the stage for the information that will eventually be delivered in your nurturing sequence, which will dive deeper into your company and product.
A nurture email sequence is designed to help introduce your prospects to your company and product. Over time, you'll deliver more information on these topics to them through each email. You can also use nurture sequences to deliver bonuses like discounts and coupon codes.
Over time, the nurture sequence's main goal is to help your audience get to know your company. You can tell them about your product, the pain points it solves, and help them to better understand how you can help them.
Nurture email sequences are perhaps the most powerful tool that you have in your email marketing toolbox. For most, it's the first chance that your prospects will have to deep-dive into your business and products and begin to connect how you can help them.
For all companies, there are few time periods more critical than the days after a new customer signs up for your service. Their ability to learn your software and find ways to integrate it into your existing business processes is critical for your success.
An onboarding email sequence walks your prospects through the process of using your product. For SaaS companies, this might mean learning how to use your software solution and integrating it into their business processes. It's important that your customers have a full understanding of your product so that you can ensure their continued use and a longer life as a customer of your business.
Once a prospect is familiar with your business and knows how your product can help them, the conversion sequence is the automated version of a sales closer. Your prospects are nurtured and it's time to advance your relationship and turn them into customers.
In this sequence, you'll deliver more sales-specific information. You might share case studies or customer success stories about your product. You might invite them to connect with a sales rep to learn more about your company. You could even directly ask them to buy your product within the sequence.
Email sequences are a tool that any company can use to drive growth by furthering relationships with their prospects. With some carefully planned and designed email sequences, you can convert more prospects into customers and develop awareness among your audience.

Sarajevo's Dusan Hodzic says Celtic have weaknesses they plan to exploit
The Bosnian right-back also admitted his club couldn't have faced a harder draw than the Hoops
Celtic manager Neil Lennon (Image: SNS Group)
Sarajevo star Dusan Hodzic admits that Celtic are the "hardest opponent we could have got" in the Champions League qualifiers draw - but also claims that they have spotted weaknesses that they plan to exploit.
Neil Lennon takes his men to Bosnia next week for their first competitive game of the season and according to the right-back, will find a Sarajevo side who have done their homework on them.
The club have just returned from their summer training camp and a good part of their time there has been spent studying all things Celtic.
Hiodzic said: "Our preparations for the Champions League qualifier have been good. We had an excellent camp in Slovenia and now we are back in Sarajevo.
"We are still slightly rusty, which is understandable at this time of year, but we will be ready for Celtic.
"I think we have a better squad than last season. We have added some players and have some real quality in the squad.
Celtic fans react to Peter Lawwell joining the Celtic FC Festival lineup - 'Defo not going now'
"We have analysed Celtic a lot since we returned to training.
"They don't have a lot of weak points, but they have a few and we are aiming to take advantage of them.
"Celtic are the hardest opponent we could have got in the draw, but that also means it's a great challenge for the players.
"I think it will be a tough, physical battle and we are confident we can get the right result.
"I'd love it if we can get a full stadium for this encounter. I promise the fans we will do everything to get a good result against the Scots."

When choosing a professional resume writer, you should do it with care. I would suggest ask about membership in professional associations and professional credentials, because people who belong to professional associations are invariably more committed to professional development and take the time to earn professional credentials. These credentials are reasonable qualifiers of competence.
Here's a comprehensive list of resume writing credentials. I've followed this with coaching and other related professional accreditations. The credentials that apply to resume writing are in the first section. Don't get impressed by credentials, unless you know what they mean and see they actually relate to resume writing.
CMRW—Experienced résumé writers, career developers and industry leaders who are active participants in CDI egroups and chats and who demonstrate commitment to service through community work may choose to apply for this credential.
Offered through the Professional Association of Résumé Writers and Career Coaches (PARW/CC).
Offered through the Center for Credentialing and Education (CCE).
Offered through the National Association of Workforce Development Professionals (NAWDP).
Offered through the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
Beware of these certifications. They have nothing to do with resume writing or career coaching. The holder may or may not have experience with resumes or in fact any experience in the professional world.
Offered through the International Coach Federation (ICF).
If you are told of credentials that do not appear in this list, ask which association awarded them and take the time to check that they do actually exist, it could save you time, money and anguish. If you come across bogus credentials let me know and we'll investigate.
Confirm that your resume writer of choice has authentic resume writing credentials; if resume and coaching credentials, that's even better. Just be sure that your choice isn't someone qualified in an unrelated area of expertise. The only exception I would make to this rule of thumb, is the coach and resume writer who has a verifiable track record as a corporate headhunter; I make this exception because of the extensive front line experience they have garnered over years spent at the interface of employee selection; such real-world experience is enormously valuable.
At KnockEmDead.com we provide professional resume writing services at sensible prices all resumes are personally assigned by Martin Yate CPC to an experienced resume writer chosen from a team composed exclusively of senior credentialed resume writers. We also have a ton of free resume advice and tools and a series of cutting edge do-it-yourself resume writing tools ranging from $15 to $100.
