Taxis

Medicine

Heath emergency, theft, loss of passport etc, these sorts of emergencies are very popular when you travel overseas, but we never think about it and dont save money for these situations. So, its better to keep some money aside for such emergencies instead of getting worried when they occur. 

Medicine is the thing most of the folks forget to pack. Be it a pain killer or a bandage, you deserve to in anyway times carry your first aid box. Because sickness and injury can come anytime, so its better to be ready in advance instead of aggravating in future. If you forget to pack your remedy box, so in that case, you deserve to keep some money aside for remedy and you never know how much a drugs can cost in overseas. Be safe and set some factor of your budget to save for remedy. 

Forgotten Items

When going for traveling, transportation is a gigantic expense. From bus to subway tickets, every metropolis has its own rate. You can estimate the rate of subway and bus but taxi rates are harder to estimate. Dont forget to keep some money aside for transportation. You may need this money while visiting the metropolis and exploring the beauty.

The Threshold of a New World View

The Threshold of a New World View

As we've become better and better at surviving, we've systematically forgotten what we are surviving for.

We find ourselves at a unique point in history: at the precipice of human transformation. In this world of rapid change and mass confusion, many of us feel a deep longing for something morefor connection, love, joy, peace and meaning. We are all awakening, each in our own way and in our own time. As our world changes around us, our world view is changing.

Without a clearly defined authority to dictate your beliefs, define your reality, and tell you how to live your life, you're feeling confused, lost and afraid. If the churchmen have been wrong, then what's correct? To make things extra unsettling, by the 1600s astronomers proved past a doubt that the sun and stars did not revolve around the Earththat Earth was only one small planet orbiting one of billions and billions of stars.

It is no mystery that we share a collective belief system, a world view, and that it has been transmitted to us from people that came before. By understanding the reality of our ancestors, we understand how we've come to live within the mental constructs of our collective belief systems. We will take you on a journey that starts in the Middle Ages and ends where Western thought stands today. Once we view our current state in the perspective of the greater story, we'll see how it all leads up to this moment.

The Evolution of Our World View
(An adaptation of the Longer Now from The Celestine Prophecy.)

Science is Born: Imagine the anxiety produced now if you watch the climate or someone unexpectedly diesyou feel bewildered, not understanding why this is happening. You, and all of people that share your world view, begin to ask for answers. And so the up to date age is born. To counteract the chaos, democratic principles begin to take over. Definitions of our reality are now not blindly accepted. A method of building consensus was created, which today we call the clinical method. The first scientists have been sent out into this mysterious world and have been tasked with employing the clinical method to discover what's the true nature of this world, this universe. What is the true nature of God?

Scientists Return: On the other hand, some people are seeking sources of joy and fulfillment in this moment, outside and past fabric comforts. They are unplugging from the matrix. They are embarking on an inner journey, reconnecting to others, and finding their true selves.

History is just not just the evolution of technology; it is the evolution of thought.James Redfield, The Celestine Prophecy

If we are practically an awakening, why is there so much negativity, so much agony?

People all over the world are awakening and remembering their original questions Why are we here?, What is the nature of the universe, of God?

Upheaval: Now imagine your world view begins to fall apart (around the fifteenth century). You begin to hear of the churchmen violating their vows of chastity or taking money as bribery to allow officials to violate scriptural laws. This is a terrifying discovery, as the churchmen are your only connection between yourself and God. People begin to break away from the church, believing they do not need a middleman. As the churchmen and their teachings begin to come into question, so does all of your belief system about the nature of your world, the cosmos, and the purpose of life on earth.

You are now not the center of Gods universe.

Today: In the past 100 years, we've evolved in our technology and our understanding of the world and the universe extra than in the thousands of years before. We have become masters of this fabric world. We have every convenience, and now that technology takes care of many of the mundane projects that used to be needed for daily survival, we've freedom of time. During the free time we now have, we focus on our newest preoccupations Facebook, the Internet, television, sports, drama, shopping, alcohol, drugs, or compulsive working. As we are freed to move past survival, we become restless. For many, the future remains their expected salvationa respite from persistent discontent and suffering.

At just this moment, when we are finally prepared once again to ask our questions, the scientists are returning with the answers. The main edge of science, including quantum physics, has, among other things, tested that we are all literally made of an analogous stuffenergyas are all things, from this magazine to the billions of stars. From parallel universes to morphic fields, up to date science has finally begun to bring back evidence of the nature of our universethe nature of Godand realign the fact that science was originally inspired by a spiritual quest.

Purpose in Suffering: At an analogous time, there seems to be a resurgence of suffering around the world. We are inundated with theories of massive global changesgalactic alignment, magnetic shifts, and renegade planets. We are experiencing global climate change and increased frequency and severity of organic disasters. We are experiencing economic crisis and political upheaval.

Why are we here and what are we supposed to be doing?

Anyone who has experienced or studied spiritual growth knows that suffering is usally a precursor of spiritual awakening, and this time it is no the several. Many are reacting in fear, obsessing over worst case scenarios, blogging constantly about the economy, government corruption, or the latest organic disaster. But extra and extra of us are coming to know that there is something else going on, something Greater, something wonderful. We see that what we call negative occurrences are component to what we need in order to push us out of the fabric preoccupation in which we've been hibernating for centuries.

Live.

We become extra and extra enmeshed with our fabric world to bypass any danger of having time alone with ourselvesafraid we could ask ourselves the questions Is this it?, Why am I here?, What is the nature of God?

We are not hopeless. We have the flexibility to change.

Turn off the news that discourages you and tune into the good thats happening all around you. Change your focus. Stop feeding negativity with negativity. Do what you can to help, and whatever you cant do, let go. The most powerful thing you can do to impact those around you, and the world, is to work on you. Make changes in your life to live in alignment with your true self, your greater purpose. Practice techniques of positive thinking and positive living. Elevate your energy and those around you through health, education, and spiritual exercise. Open your mind and unlock the flexibility within. Use your gifts and share them with the world. Develop compassion. Learn how to love. Put down your baggage and free yourself to be who you truly are. Face your fears. Embrace change. Connect to others. Build bridges. Give of yourself. Express gratitude. Enjoy the simple things in life. Give yourself a break from the constant grind. Breathe.

Some day, when this, that, or the other thing occurs, I will feel free.

The Middle Ages: Imagine you have been alive during the Middle Ages. The churchmen defined your reality as being a spiritual one, with Gods plan for mankind at the very center of life. You have faith that earth is the center of the universe, with the stars and sun we see in the sky as concentric, crystalline, solid spheres that rotate around the earth. The churchmen explain that the purpose of life is basically to win or lose salvation. There are two opposing forces: God and the temptations of the devil. You are not qualified to discern your worthiness; for this you depend upon the churchmen who interpret the scriptures and tell you how to live your life. Everything that occurs is believed to be the will or wrath of Godfrom thunderstorms to illness. There is just not yet any understanding of climate, disease or geological forces.

Creating Change: With all of the agony and suffering we see around us and in the world, it is difficult for empathetic, worrying, and open people such as ourselves to not get bogged down. We become overwhelmed or discouraged feeling that it is outside of our control and there is nothing we can do about it.

Our cocoon of comfort is being unraveled, giving us the opening from which to spread our wings and entire the transformation we set out to do 1,000 years ago.

Material Preoccupation: As the scientists went out, people sat and waited for an answer. But, the explorers did not return for quite some time. While the world waited, we began studying this planet and finding ways to improve our lives. And so began our preoccupation with fabric comfort. Over a higher four centuries, we continued to improve our techniques of manipulating our environment, making advances in farming and later creating the Industrial Revolution. As we became extra and extra distracted with our technological pursuits, we slowly pushed aside and repressed our spiritual natures and the questions we sent out the scientists to discover.

The Psychology of Failure

The Psychology of Failure

Image source: http://image.slidesharecdn.com/chapter8-131020162545-phpapp01/95/psy-150-403-chapter-8-slides-49-638.jpg?cb=1382345130

In fact, its not about fast success at all, is it? Its the journey! Life is about the journey. If everything were easy, it wouldnt be a challenge, and wed be bored. Were here to grow. Theres no boom in brushing your teeth every morning, is there? When was the last time you left the bathroom questioning, "Wow, I did an amazing job of brushing my teeth today. Im sure it was ten occasions better than the day before today!"? Maybe Im wrong, but I just dont see that.

Now that might be a little depressing if we take the word failure too seriously, couldnt it? The thought of a sequence of failures when were just starting out would be too much for a lot of people. Theyd stop before theyd even started!

Failure is not as popular as it's going to be, is it? Failure, although not the desired outcome, should be celebrated at least a little, instead of stuffed into the backside of the bin under all the soggy teabags and banana peels.

Imagine how differently wed feel if we werent so bummed out about failing a test, or failing to pay a bill, or to call our mother. If we cant fail, wouldnt we be a lot extra inclined to do extra, to risk extra, to accomplish extra than if were paralyzed with fear about failing? I think so! And how about this celebrated view?

"Im not scared of failing. Im scared of living a boring life." - Ray Edwards

Now, I like that one a lot. Maybe we might just eliminate the word "failure" from all the dictionaries in the world. Then people might not reflect onconsideration on themselves failures, marriages might not be failures, or fancy cakes, or even new business ventures. They'd effectively be a large discovery alongside tips to success, about what success ISN'T! Thats splendid! Its all in the way we look at it; our perception.

"There are no failures-- just experiences and your reactions to them." - Tom Krause

Failure and success then, come when we step outside our convenience zone and risk. The risk, that gentle flutter in the tummy, that shred if anxiety that signals fear due to the unknown, is what keeps us going. Its why we wake up each morning, or it's going to be. Without it, well consistently stay the same, and I just cant risk that! Id rather fail, and fail and fail, than never risk.

So much has been written on the topic of failure, I thought it time I added my two cents. I've done a fair bit of contemplation on the subject of late; not because my life is crammed with it, but because its interesting from the perspective of human nature... and, well ok, perhaps I've had a few, too.

But theres a lesson in that, too. We must be prepared not to be successful right away, and to be strong in our pursuit of our crucial goals, but it doesnt mean we must always be relegated to forever make the exact same mistakes just that we can learn from each one, intelligently modify our efforts, and move on again until we find success.

From that perspective, isn't failure just an expected step up the ladder to success? The extra failures we have, the extra rungs on the ladder, and the higher we'll eventually climb to our loftiest goals. So failures are basically GOOD things. We WANT failures, because they're proof we're doing something, that we've taken action and that we have goals.

Failure is just half of the process of succeeding, right? Well, isn't it? When you think about it, we can't usually have success without first having failure, at least in the foremost crucial accomplishments we undertake.

"Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm." Sir Winston Churchill

Here! Here! I wish us all much failure in 2008!

The Perfect Gift For A Sports Fanatic

The Perfect Gift For A Sports Fanatic

Image source: http://izquotes.com/quotes-pictures/quote-the-perfect-christmas-gift-for-a-sportscaster-as-all-fans-of-sports-cliches-know-is-a-scoreless-william-safire-332819.jpg

Tickets to the game are always appreciated. This is one of those gifts that no be counted how many times it has been given, it on no account gets old. Why? Same tickets, different games! Experiencing the sport up close and private can be a blast!

What makes these gift suggestions so great is that whether the sports fan already has any of these gifts, they won't be disappointed to get an alternative again.

Last but mot least, autographed sports memorabilia are perfect for the sports fanatic. With all the auction websites at the current time you are sure to in finding something great. There is a catch however. Be sure to buy from a reliable source to insure authenticity of autographed items. If it seems too good to be true- it probably is. Great items to get or buy autographed are balls, photos, trading cards or jerseys. It is also an excellent idea to get is framed, or incased to offer protection to is from damage. If you could, try and get the worth of this great collectible.

If you know a sports lover than you also know that they absolutely love any gift associated with their favorite team, sport or player. They probably have car flags and bumper stickers all over the car, desk and family room. It may be hard finding something they do not already have. Looking for the perfect can be just as easy as sitting down to watch the game.

Sports Gift Baskets do not appear as if a "manly gift" but you'd be surprised on the response they receive. You can get a sports basket to match the team or colors. Sports gift baskets can comprise all sports paraphernalia or can have a combination of sports caps, towels and game time snacks. Either way they are sure to please.

For the younger sports fans, hats, hats and more hats seem to be the trend. The catch is, knowing their hat size. Today's hat style is all roughly fitted caps. Other things to appearance out for when purchasing a fitted cap are the teams and colours on the hat. Buying a hat to match a jersey they already own, will make you a extremely cool gift giver. If that is too much work, try getting a gift certificate to a hat store. They are in every mall all round America.

Sports Jerseys seem to be very hot and it seems like everyone has one. The only problem is that before the next laundry day, the player has been traded to an alternative team! Yikes! A better gift suggestion is buying a retro jersey or college jersey. With retro and college jerseys, you do not have to be concerned roughly the player being traded, because the point is to acknowledge the player's past. These jerseys tend to be more expensive, especially the authentic ones, but you could in finding great deals on the off season of the given sport.

The Everest Base Camp Trek in Nepal- Everything You Need To Know

The Everest Base Camp Trek in Nepal- Everything You Need To Know

Namche Bazaar to Tengboche

Most of, if no longer all, trekking equipments and gears can be bought in Kathmandu. Gears and equipments like hiking poles and trekking boots too can be rented or hired. Important trekking equipments include warm clothes that are lined with fleece, sunglasses, duffle bags, sleeping bags, down jackets and day packs. Although trekking boots can be bought in Kathmandu, it is recommended and advised to have ones personal trekking boots that are comfortable to wear and that have been damaged into. Packing as light as probable is also the most suitable option. Carrying only the necessary and essential items for the trek reduces the likelihood of hassles or items being lost or misplaced. Most trekkers and travelers of the Khumbu hire porters for carrying the weight of the duffle bags. This has to be considered while packing as well. A porter can carry up to 10 to 12 kg of weight from a single trekker. That is why carrying unnecessary items and extra concerns arent perfect. Only the equipments and items which are important and valuable should be packed. Hotels in Kathmandu primarily provide the service of safety storage lockers where people can store their excess luggage until they come back from the trek. Baggage allowance from Kathmandu to Lukla is also only 15 kg per person. Extra 5 kg as hand-carry too can be taken.

Trekking Gears and Baggage

The Everest Base Camp Trekking Trail

Accommodations and Meals inside the course of the Trek 

The view of Mount Khumbila from Phakding is spectacular! After getting a good nights sleep, the trekking journey maintains on to the subsequent town of Namche Bazaar. Sagarmatha National Park is entered en route to Namche. The entrance to the park lies at Monjo and it is a pleasant hike thru the wide woods and forests of the national park to the celebrated town of Namche. Also famously known as the Gateway to the High Himalayas- Namche Bazaar is considered the industrial hub of the Khumbu vicinity. It is incredibly popular all over Nepal and is a great place to acclimatize. Trekkers spend at least a day inside the town for acclimatization. Namche lies on a facet face of a hill and presents a terrace-like topography. Houses and huts are situated at different levels of the terrace on the hill and standing at the bottom flat floor of the town is like standing on an amphitheatre. Views of Mount Everest, Thamserku and the Kongdi RI from Namche are amazing. While spending the day here, trekkers can stopover at the Everest Photo Gallery or the Sherpa Culture Museum. The renowned Everest View Hotel also lies a little distance away from Namche and it is listed inside the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest located Hotel inside the world. A lovely respite inside the hotel with tea and the view of the cerulean Mount Everest massif can be enjoyed while staying at Namche. The Syangboche Airstrip too can be visited. It lies just above Namche on a flat strip of mountain land and offers amazing panoramic view of the town and the distant Himalayas.

The EBC Trek takes place inside the Khumbu vicinity, which lies in northeastern Nepal. The Khumbu vicinity is part of the Solukhumbu district which falls below the Sagarmatha Zone. The vicinity is regarded as a prime Sherpa settlement of the country and has many villages and towns that are extensively occupied by Sherpa communities and people who follow Buddhism. As such, many chortens, Gompas, Mani-stone partitions with carved prayers and colorful Buddhist prayer flags can be seen across the trekking journey.

Dingboche is a small village that lies inside the Chhukung Valley at an elevation of 4,410 meters. The trekking trail to the Everest Base Camp goes thru here and which means- Dingboche is visited by many trekkers. The village is also used for acclimatization. The Nagerjun Hill, which lies close to the village, acts like a vantage point and a short facet-hike can be taken to the hill for looking at beautiful panoramic views of peaks like the Lobuche East, the Lobuche West, the Kangtega, the Taboche Peak, Thamserku and the Ama Dablam. Sometimes, if the weather is obvious, view of Mount Makalu too can be seen. The view of the gaping Pheriche valley fro the hill is also fairly fascinating. Another special feature of Dingboche is its kilometer long stone wall that surrounds the entire village. The wall is built to cut back the impact of the cold winds that sometimes sweeps down the valley on the village crops. Dingboche also receives more sunlight compared to other mountain villages of the Khumbu, and which means, it's also called the Summer Valley. During the peak trekking seasons, many trekkers can be seen sunbathing inside the village lodges.

All varieties of meals are available inside the guesthouses. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals are present. Breakfast and dinner are served inside the guesthouses and lunch is had while on the hike from location to the subsequent. Breakfast is served early inside the morning at around 8:00 and because darkness engulfs the mountain swiftly after the sun sets, dinner repeatedly occurs at around 5:00 or 6:00, reckoning on the schedule. Breakfast at most guesthouses consist of Oatmeals, bread and butter/jam/honey, pasta or noodles, eggs or Chapattis and vegetables. The meals vary from dumpling and soups to rice and lentils for lunch and dinner. Rice is the staple food of the country and is found at all places across the trek. It is fulfilling and offers good energy.

The Everest Base Camp Trek has many highlights. It is one of the ideal trekking journeys inside the world and presents amazing terrains and various topographical hallmarks like the Mahalangur Himalayan variety, the Khumbu Glacier and Icefall, the Khumbu moraine, the vantage point of Kalapatthar, the Sagarmatha National Park, the glacial rivers of Imja and the Dudh Koshi and many more, along with ethnic Sherpa and Buddhist villages. It is a perfect blend of the regions traditional aspects with its natural elements. It truly is an adventure that has to be done at least once in life.

The Best Time to do the Trek

From Dingboche, the trekking trail further opens out uphill to reach the villages of Pheriche, Lobuche and Gorakshep; and from Gorakshep, the Everest Base Camp Trek. There lies a Trekkers Aid Post at Pheriche as well- which is run by Western Volunteer Doctors and assisted by the Himalayan Rescue Association. On the path to the base camp, trekkers primarily stop at Lobuche overnight and finally reach the base camp the subsequent day. The vantage point of Kalapatthar is also visited after the base camp. Trekkers wake up inside the early hours of dawn and hike to Kalapatthar to look at the view of the sunrise from amidst the Mount Everest massif. It is famed for amazing panorama of the Himalayas.    

Although the Everest Base Camp Trek can be done at all times across the year, the spring and the autumn seasons are considered the ideal trekking seasons. Spring occurs from March to May and autumn from the months of September to December. The temperature and weather inside the course of spring and autumn are traditional and present clear skies. The sun shines inside the course of the day and temperatures drop at night, but it does no longer hover on serious conditions like the winter season. Winter and summer are considered as no longer perfect trekking months because as mentioned, winter season has serious cold temperatures and heavy snow that can result in some paths being blocked or snowed-in. The summer season is also the season of summer showers and the monsoon. It rains constantly and trekking trails inside the mountain become muddy. The rain clouds also cover the sight of the Himalayas. That is why most trekkers arrive in Nepal for EBC Trek inside the course of autumn and spring. The trekking crowd becomes high and flights tend to get booked very quickly.

Altitude Sickness and Acclimatization while Trekking

Dingboche to the Everest Base Camp

Altitude Sickness is always a threat that looms over trekkers while they are doing the Everest Base Camp Trek journey. Although the chances of actually getting sick varies from person to person, it is important to take good care of your health and to properly be acclimatized in order to no longer get altitude sick inside the mountains. Important pointers for staying altitude-sick free is to remain hydrated, eat contently and healthily, get lots of sleep at night and to give proper acclimatization time for the body to adjust to high altitude. It does no longer do good to rush thru the trek without giving the body the likelihood to get used to the high altitude conditions. That is why trekking at your personal comfortable pace and going slow is the key to avoid the sickness. Some symptoms of the Altitude Sickness include headache, loss of sleep and loss of appetite. If the symptoms persist while trekking, then it is important to take rest and gain back strength. Medicines too can be taken for this, like Diamox. Many trekkers take medicines for Altitude Sickness from the very get-go at Kathmandu itself to avoid getting sick later on inside the journey.

From Kathmandu to Lukla

As with most trekking journeys inside the Khumbu, the EBC Trek primarily starts with a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. This is the easiest, the fastest and the most popular way of commencing the trekking journey from the capital. Flights from Kathmandu to Lukla occur daily at all times, and it lasts for about 35 to 40 minutes. Hiking to Lukla too can be done from Kathmandu, but it takes about 5 days to reach Lukla by hiking. The Lukla flight is considered by many as one of the most dramatic flight journeys inside the world. The Lukla Airport is also located on a cliff and has a single runway that is capable of taking in only one plane at a time. The runway also drops off to the gaping valley below towards its end. Lukla is the 1st major small town of the Khumbu and because it is the commencing point of many trekking journeys, it has many guesthouses and lodges that cater to tourists and trekkers. The change inside the terrain and the environment is immediately felt upon touchdown at Lukla because the town is surrounded by tall green forest-covered hills and views of distant mountain peaks can be seen. Trekkers can stay overnight here, but most opt to hike further out to the subsequent village of Phakding and stay there. Phakding lies approximately about 8 kilometers away from Lukla and it takes about three hours of hiking thru beautiful trekking trail and smaller villages and settlements to reach.

The village of Tengboche lies at the confluence of the Imja Khola and the Dudh Koshi Rivers inside the Imja Valley. It is situated about 11 kilometers away from Namche and is also shares the same popularity as Namche. While Namche is understood as the industrial hub of the Khumbu, Tengboche is understood as its spiritual centre. The famous Tengboche Monastery- the largest Buddhist Monastery of the vicinity, lies here. The monastery is visited by many trekkers for prayer and blessings of a successful trekking journey. Tengboche also provides amazing panoramic views of Himalayan peaks like the Ama Dablam, Lhotse, Nuptse, Tawache and Mount Everest among many more from its ridges. The village is surrounded by tall hills that are covered in rhododendron trees. During the spring, the blooming rhododendron flowers make the village look absolutely lively and blissful. Many Impeyan pheasants and Monal birds can be seen roosting on the trees of the forests as well. Trekkers stay overnight at the many guesthouses here and continue on the trek the subsequent day.

From Lukla to Phakding to Namche Bazaar

Tengboche to Dingboche

The Everest Base Camp Trek, among many trekking journeys in Nepal, is the most popular and sought-after trekking journey. Its popularity is huge among many travelers and trekking enthusiastic from all around the world. It takes place inside the Khumbu vicinity of Nepal and because of the regions many natural and cultural attributes, the Everest Base Camp Trekking is preferred by many. The trekking journey goes thru many ethnic Sherpa villages, a national park, a popular vantage point all the way to the base camp of the worlds highest mountain peak- Mount Everest. It is a good way to learn and experience Nepals mountain culture and to be immersed inside the countrys marvelous natural landscapes and topographical features. Since Mount Everests first conquest by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa in 1953, trekking journeys to the base camp of the mountain has been developing in stable popularity. It is cheap to do, falls below the relatively moderate trip grading level, can be done by people of all demographics and experiences and can be done at all times of the year. Base Camp Trekking to Everest also plays a major responsibility in significant revenue generation inside the country. Done by thousands of trekkers every year, the Base Camp Trek employs hundreds of porters inside the mountains and offers earning possibility to many people inside the remote parts of the vicinity. The Khumbus unique beauty, its cultural prominence and its many Himalayan ranges- the tallest inside the world, makes trekking journeys an experience of a lifetime.

Drinking water can be brought from the shops inside the mountains. Many springs, wells, small brooks and water-holes can found along the trekking journey at various villages. But because the water from these sources are no longer suitable for direct consumption, extra precautionary measures have to be taken, like using water-purification tablets or water-pumps.

A whole type of Hotels are available for choices in Kathmandu, but that may no longer be the case inside the mountains. In the Himalayan villages while trekking, accommodations are provided by guesthouses and lodges. Generally, twin-sharing lodge-to-lodge accommodation is the most viable option available inside the mountains. The accommodations are rudimentary and offer basic services. Some trekkers also tend to camp out, but with the guesthouses and the lodges, it isnt an absolute necessity to camp out at night. Hot water is also no longer simply available; and so is the laundry service. The guesthouses cost extra money for using hot water. But the guesthouses and lodges are fairly comfortable and some even provide wifi services. During peak trekking seasons when the crowd gets high, trekkers are expected to share the room with other trekkers (of the same gender). Guesthouses and lodges at Namche, Phakding and Lukla even have western-style toilets.

The Adoption Experience It's Like Growing Up

The Adoption Experience It's Like Growing Up

Image source: https://creatingafamily.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Chinese-adoptees-experience-with-adoption.jpg

You might imagine the adoption information starts once the adopted child comes at home. That is only part of the story. The first step is the introduction and the arrangements. The parents begin the process way in advance, looking for the right child, browsing through photos, being interviewed. Then the day comes when all is agreed upon, the last adoption forms have been signed and it is time to bring the child home. While children will be excited of the recent world ahead, they have no idea yet of how completely their existence will change.

Once home, the most enjoyable part of the journey, the honeymoon takes place. The entire family is full of excitement, gifts are shared, pictures are taken and rooms are being rearranged. The miracle child has arrived and at least for a while nobody thinks of what adoption meant anymore and how is the family going to address it in the future.

While everybody want to be an infant for the calm down of their existence we do grow up and move into childhood.

Progressive Web Apps Ticket to the Future of Apps

Image source: http://moduscreate.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/creating_progressive_web_apps_using_angular_011.png

But what does a Progressive Web App mean?

Use cases: What are some use cases to think about PWA? Native apps are usually recommended for apps that one expects users to return to frequently and a progressive web app delivers during this front. Twitter mobile, Washington Post PWA, Flipboard, FT PWA, 2048 puzzle are well-known examples of progressive web apps. 
To decide whether your next app ought to be a cross platform app, a native app or a progressive web app, you wish to first identify your users and their most vital user movements. Since it is progressive it works in all browsers and provides new and enhanced experiences when the browser is updated with improved features and APIs. 

Conclusion:
It is evident that PWA are the following to stay and will be adopted widely in the future. They will not replace native or hybrid apps, but provide a creative solution in use cases where you would like to bypass app fatigue and where the web-established experience pushes traffic to devices that aid greater advanced features.  For example, AliExpress increased conversion rates for new users by 104%. United eXtra Electronics saw 4x increase in re-engagement and 100% greater sales from users arriving thru web push. Have you built or used Progressive Web Apps? Please share your experience in the comments section below.

Progressive Web Apps are experiences that bring the best of both worlds - the capabilities of the web and the power of apps. They are beneficial to users from the very first visit in a browser tab, and dont require any downloads or installation.  Users can progressively build a relationship with the app over a period of time and it becomes greater useful and robust with time. Progressive web apps have fast loading times even over flaky networks. They are accessible from an icon on the home screen and load as a top-level, full-screen experience.

Progressive: This means it works for each user no matter what the browser because progressive enhancement is a core tenet. 
Responsive: It suits any form point from desktop to mobile tablet, and whatever technology enables browsing. Connectivity independent: Enhanced with service workers to work offline or on poor quality networks.
App-like: Experience like an app, because the app shell model separates the application functionality from application content. 
Fresh:  Continuously updated and fresh because of the service worker update process. 
Safe: Secure owing to HTTPS that prevents in opposition to snooping and content tampering. 
Discoverable: Is clearly recognized as an "application" thanks to W3C manifest and service worker registration scope, allowing search engines to find it.
Re-engageable: You can send push notifications to re-engaged users. 
Installable: Lets users add apps they find most relevant to their home screen without the need to access an app store. 
Linkable: Allows easy sharing of the app thru URL. It doesnt require installation or obtain.

A Progressive Web App is one that is:

PWA and Cross Platform Technology: PhoneGap recently announced the intention to create compatibility between Apache Cordova and Progressive Web Apps in 2017. This will enable developers to create a PWA app, deploy it on the web, and also compile it for App Store distribution. Developers of PhoneGap are excited with the new possibilities this opens up for them. 

Another possibility is to create a mobile lite version wrapped in a native application using any of the several cross platform frameworks like Cordova, React Native etc. This can create an optimal mobile experience across all three platforms mobile web, iOS native and Android native.

Why Progressive Web Apps? 
Research shows that an app loses 20% of its users for each step between the users first contact with the app and the user starting to use the app (on a mean). Consider the typical steps in the user journey: discovering the app in the app store, downloading it, installing it and getting on board. The great thing about progressive web apps is that the user can start enjoying it immediately taking out the relaxation of the stages.  A progressive web application uses the best of mobile apps characteristics, leading to increased user retention and performance without the hassle of maintaining mobile apps.

If you choose to opt for PWA, then you have got to decide what functionality to offer offline and facilitate the navigation (since there's no back button in standalone mode). PWA works out very well if your website already has an application like interface. 

In 2015, Google Chrome engineer Alex Russell and designer Frances Berriman devised the term "Progressive Web Apps" to describe a new generation of apps that leverage trendy features supported by recent browsers. This involves Service Workers and Web Manifests that enable users to upgrade web apps to first-class apps in their native OS

Image source: http://media.treehugger.com/assets/images/2013/10/solar_wagon.jpg.662x0_q70_crop-scale.jpg

Those who suffer from repeated water problems may want to buy the top portable water purifier they can afford during the times when the water supply is contaminated. However, if the system cannot remove the smallest microbes or bacteria, even the top for the money may not be first rate sufficient.

Large groups of campers may want to consider buying, or a minimum of renting a portable water purification system to insure they have sufficient safe drinking water for everyone in their neighborhood. These types of sets can be especially useful when the supply of drinking water in remote locations is questionable at top, and they will not have to worry about hauling a truckload of water on their event. In many remote areas, a water filtering system just will not be sufficient as many do not filter small bacteria or viruses out of the water and although it'll be clean, will still cause health problems.

Additionally, there are two effective means of killing bacteria in water without driving a portable water purification system. One is by boiling the water and the opposite is by driving chemicals such as chlorine or iodine, which can leave a bad taste and odor in the water. Most filtering systems only remove bigger particles floating in the water, but a portable water purification system will remove many of the disease-causing bacteria without the smell and taste of chemicals.

Purifiers Offer Protection for Health

Persons driving a portable water purification system will want to insure it is capable of eliminating everything down to about .four microns, which will block most of the disease-causing bacteria from their water. These sets also filter out other metals and products that also affect the taste of the water without the use of chemicals.

Homeowners may occasional have a necessity for a portable water purification system if their home water supply does not meet their expectations of quality. For example, well water is often infested with somewhat much of bacteria that can be killed with chlorinization, but the chlorine leaves a bad taste in the mouth of the users. A portable water purification system can be used to create a pitcher or two of clean water that's safe for human consumption.

There may also be times when the municipal water system has a broken water line and boiling advisories are issued, meaning that harmful bacteria may have gained access to the water supply.

New Technology And Aura Readings, Empathic Merges

New Technology And Aura Readings, Empathic Merges

Image source: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/a4/7e/fa/a47efa20b17b1a6e2179cad6471cab30.jpg

When virtual reality involves theaters near you, can it possibly seem any realer? And reading the auras of virtual people like Brendan, when you can cool down enough to do proper aura readings -- doesn't it seem as if reading those auras ought to be different?

Sure I followed the plot, which involves the viewer quite quick in basic (movie) issues of survival. Consequently, I never had three spare minutes for aura readings or empathic merges. Nor do I think I will be able to manage it until I've viewed the movie another couple of times. The action is only too compelling.

But right from those first few strange minutes, I realized that I was seeing actors as I'd never viewed them before: Up close, personal, bodies-in-the-round.

* Look at my aura and tell me what is necessary for me to know.
* Find all my cords of attachment and describe them to me.
* Describe what my aura presentations about my purpose in life.
* I've been contacted over the years by many aliens, viewed many UFOs. What did they do to my aura?
* I went to my healer and she told me I have a challenge at my solar plexus chakra, a brown spot over on the left. Explain to me what that brown spot means.

CAN AND CAN'T DO

If you have a mixed group, adults and children, that could be just when the children are smiling.

And being an aura reader or skilled empath does not mean you have the powers of a Grand Master. Or God.

TODAY'S NEW CAMERAS

Nevertheless, the presentation showed digital images clearly enough. I realized, I've been seeing some of these in newspapers, magazines, on the Net. Undoubtedly, you have too, but probably the quality of those images didn't seize you as different. You thought, as I did, they were "just pictures."
Well, look again. The clarity of the new high-def images strikes like lightning.

Or when just the adults are smiling.
Or when the smiles are pretty faux and minimal, but the photo will concentrate on them smiles and snap them for you.
No wonder, people are wondering just what a "mighty aura reader" can and can't do.

But if you will have to go see this movie, look closely at the three stars, Brendan, Anita Briem, and Josh Hutcherson. Get a feel for the body mass index.

You can receive precise, powerful insights.

What is reasonable to expect, reading auras or doing empathic merges, at least in the ways that I educate in books like "Aura Reading Through All Your Senses"/a>and "Empowered by Empathy"?

Just as mind-boggling as the quality of the images, concentrate on the kind of work these new cameras can do for you. At the touch of a button, the camera will snap your photo at the precise moment when everybody is smiling.

And probably incredulous. In this regard, she is like others who have come to me in Aura Transformation sessions, saying things like this:

So I wonder, how will our expectations -- converted by in the present day's new technologies -- have to modify? Will it develop into harder than ever for people to be realistic about Deeper Perception?

You will find no visible fat. In the adults, at least, the presence of trainers lingers. Between genetics and train, these bodies look human but nearly aren't, so dense is the muscle, way beyond buff.
Hair and skin may look human, but think again. The finest chemical compounds money can purchase have been applied by proficient hands. Add makeup. Add exceptional without difficulty. (I especially relished the faux sweat, applied as extra layers of makeup, on the face of Ms. Briem while she supposedly withstood temperatures well above a hundred degrees.)
Then mix in the off-the-charts sex appeal of Mr. Fraser, evident even without the slightest empathic merge. All the movie's artifice only enhances his kiss-me qualities. Now here he is, in 3-D, right in the room with you.

Hilda was, needless to say, unimpressed.

Here is an example, flowers that look realer than real. Step into the bouquet with your mind and take a decent, long stretch.

Seeing all the stars in 3-D, you can identify with them as deeply as you wish. Yet you never break a sweat or ponder whether you find yourself going to lose your latest download of Coca Cola.

Never will they substitute for universal sense. You are accountable for your life and your own choices, whether you're reading an aura, having anybody else read it, or having escapist fun via in the present day's new technology.

If this is not the most convenient 3-D movie of all time, you'll have to prove it to me. The experience is like a theme park journey ride, where you get to tumble through the air with adorable Brendan Fraser.

For me, the greatest pleasure of the movie was simple. More than ever before, yet differently, it seemed as though I was in the same room with the stunning movie stars.

If movie technology is not enough to astonish you, let's talk cameras. At Narita Airport, a customary little snack shop had a display featuring Sony's latest digital cameras. High definition cameras.

Yesterday, I was reminded of this by a call from a woman, "Hilda," who reported she is planning to take one of my upcoming Intensives. But which one will have to she take, Cut Cords of Attachment in October or Empath Empowerment in September?

And this information is supposed to be in her aura?

To make a more realistic analogy, when you do aura readings, it's like playing chess. A more experienced player will have more skill than a newbie. Still, playing regular chess uses different abilities from being a Grand Master.

"I've emailed my photo to you," she reported. "Please take a look and tell me which one I will have to take. Which would benefit me more?"

Such a ride! Worth the price of admission alone, for instance, was the roller coaster ride (thinly disguised as an escape through a crumbling old mine).

If you're having a sessionwith me, or you're reading your own aura, please get this straight. An aura is not a movie, where you can quick forward to the ending. An aura is not a high-def photo, where an photograph = "everything" about you.

Man, woman, teenage boy -- we think we know what such people look like. And we know, in theory, the camera adds 10 pounds.

Duh!

A video presentation was part of this display. In front of the tiny TV, I stood transfixed for 15 minutes, watching the promo play over and over in various languages. "These aren't real camera images," warned a disclaimer, in so many words. "These are computer images considering the reality that you are not really watching a camera right now but a TV screen."

It's a brave new world of technology, Blog-Buddies. Aura readings and empathic merges will stay the same, but we must modify to the relaxation.

"Please," I reported back to her. "Read the descriptions of what you will be informed in these workshops and decide which one interests you more."

SPACE AGE BODIES

The knowledge brings truth, deeper insight and model new accuracy, yet can it compete with the thrill of in the present day's new movies?

You can be a very competent chess player without being able to play 12 games simultaneously, memorize each keyboard, remember each play, calculate 10 moves ahead with 10 different possible plays.

Such weighty thoughts, while I'm having a high-tech hangover! Last evening a loved one took me to see "Journey to the Center of the Earth."/a>

Yet it will not be. You and I will still have to settle down, use a technique, choose one databank at a time. We'll find a mix of gifts and stuff. We can go through the 50 databanks in any leading chakra, perhaps sampling the practical categories that you be informed to peg in "Read People Deeper."

I wonder how many viewers recognize just how strange those bodies are. In Japan, I'd been reminded by my encounter with aura reading the famous rock superstar recounted here.

Midlife Crisis Or Midlife Opportunity

Midlife Crisis Or Midlife Opportunity

Image source: http://andrewgmarshall.com/wp-content/uploads/andrew-g-marshall-its-not-a-midlife-crisis-its-an-opportunity.gif

The five crisis of mid-life are:
1. Cultural
2. Health
3. Relationship
4. Financial/Career
5. Existential

Now, in mid life Ive seen many persons my age succumb to cancer and coronary heart attacks. A dear friends mother died recently. He says that now hes on his own, he has a clear sense of his own mortality and its woken him up to the fact that life is too short to be lived on cruise control.

1. Cultural
Midlife transition is a universal phenomenon whereas midlife crisis is more a Western phenomenon, with our culture favouring youth over age and knowledge.

The funny thing about careers is that for plenty of persons they didnt actually settle on it it chose them. Think about your own experience. Did somebody either tell you that you would be good at that particular job or did you get into it because you simply had to get a job to earn a number of money?

3. Relationships
The result of crises in relationships may take the form of extra-marital affairs and indirectly divorce. Relationships that were founded on physical looks, sex, financial protection, prestige and expediency can flounder into crisis around the midlife period.
Many midlifers also have teenage children who are going through their rebellious, "I know it all" stage. When you add all these elements together and couple them with the angst midlife brings, you've a potent, volatile mix.

All of this primarily happened whilst we were a young adult, at a time when we didnt know ourselves really effectively. It primarily isnt till we hit our thirties or forties that we hit the awake wall and ask, "Why am I doing this?" "How did I get here?"

In midlife many of our health complications are self-imposed. Fast foods, lack of quality rest and non-stop activity takes its toll on our physical and emotional effectively being. Today were taking on more and more trying to cram every moment with more activities causing our threshold for stress to bring up. The bodily alarm keeps going off but we retain hitting the snooze button on the method to retain going and going. Eventually the body breaks down through neglect.

By the time we hit midlife, our parents are likely to be experiencing a number of of the issues that age brings; physical and highbrow deterioration, or even dying. One statistic I read said mid-lifers nowadays are twice as likely to be emotionally, physically and occasionally financially supporting an turning into old parent.

5. Existential 
This crisis is moderately a crisis of meaning or a spiritual crisis. Its the drive to find out and understand the deeper meaning of life. Its an inside crisis, whereas the other four happen externally to us. This is why I have confidence midlife has a positive intention for us. An existential crisis causes us to ask the age-old existential questions of life. Who am I? Why am I here? What is my purpose?

Midlife is not a weak part of our evolution; its an empowering step. So lets step up!

I did a number of research on the word, crisis which in my little Bloomsbury dictionary is defined as; a turning point; a critical moment; an emergency. After a work more research I found the word crisis comes from the Greek word krinein, which literally means, to decide. Before I did that little piece of research the word crisis for me had a adverse tone. Now I think it has a positive tone.

Somebody facing a life threatening illness can start to hunt the deeper meaning of it all. Events like these can slam us back into what we value most. You may have personally experienced the sort of family courting curative that takes place when somebody we love is close to death.

2. Health  
Theres nothing more shocking than coming face to face with your own mortality, either through a life threatening illness or the death of a loved one.

Reminding ourselves of what weve been through and what weve learnt can furnish us with efficient insights as we move forward. With this clarity were able to settle on the direction wed like to go in and clearly see the following mountain wed like to climb. And so we set off into the unknown a new terrain for the following life adventure.

Many persons in their forties and fifties in the West dont wait for the benefits of eldership like they do in the East. Tribal persons have always acknowledged the strength of anyone moving to wholeness and knowledge, as they get older.

Nothing has any meaning other than the meaning we give it
Its a rare individual certainly wholl not face at least one of these crises in their middle years. That part we might not be able to regulate over, but we do have a choice as to what meaning we give them. We can give them the meaning of great personal and family disasters, but this will only serve to bring up our pain and deepen the suffering.

There are not any meaningless events
Its my belief that there are not any meaningless events in life. Every crisis, no matter how devastating, is also an opportunity for profound and deep personal growth.

During middle years we can find ourselves experiencing five different wake up calls. Each one has the potential to furnish its own crisis.

Whenever I talk about midlife, the word crisis is inexplicitly linked, so Id like to share with you a number of thinking about the five crisis of middle age and how each crisis can furnish you with an exquisite opportunity for personal transformation into greater knowledge and wholeness.

Another crisis for mid-lifers nowadays is whether to have children or not. As a womans biological clock ticks away, couples can feel under immense pressure to make a life exchanging decision and then have to come to terms with their decision. And what of the added burden of dealing with the social stigma thats attached to being childless? Then there are those that have been trying to have children for years only to find out that they cant. This can be devastating to both parties and can make or break the courting.

In one sense an existential crisis is linked to the four other crisis. When an event comes along that disrupts our essential assumptions about life, the result is a search for the deeper meaning of it all. For example, if somebody loses his or her job and is staring financial ruin in the face, it can lead to a search for greater meaning.

For example, if anyone is unhappy at work they may stick for years at it to avoid a financial crisis but the effect on their total psyche can lead to a marriage break up, a health breakdown and religious crisis. If somebody comes down with a life threatening illness they may lose their job, their marriage, their health and indirectly their will to live.

For anyone whos invested so much into his or her job, losing it is ultimate failure. The result of that perception sends a number of spiralling in to a deep dark black gap called depression. Some dont lose their job but are stuck in jobs they hate; it pays the bills but leaves them feeling empty.

The term midlife crisis now means a time in our life when important decisions need to be made.

It was Stephen Covey who said, "In the absence of a wakeup call, many of us never moderately confront the critical issues of life."
Each one of these five crises are challenges, with important lessons to be learned. Plenty of testimonies abound of persons who have chosen an empowering intending to lifes difficulties and, as a result, turned their lives around.

4. Financial/Career
Financial crises are commonplace in midlife. Acquisitions, mergers, downsizing, advancements in technology all take their toll on the mid-lifer. Suddenly finding yourself out of a job can be shocking.

Maybe its time we changed our language from, "Im having a midlife crisis" to "Im experiencing a:
Midlife evolution
Midlife empowerment stage
Midlife growth stage
Midlife kick
Midlife challenge
Midlife transition
Midlife wake up call
Which one best resonates with you?

If somebody loses their job in their twenties or thirties its annoying, but when somebody loses their job in their late forties or fifties its traumatic. To somebody whose whole identity is entwined with the status and title their job brings, losing a job can be a devastating blow to his or her sense of self worth. And its not simply their identity they lose, its their financial insurance coverage, community, and livelihood. One of my clients summed up his job loss when he said, "Its not simply a job, its my whole life!"

As Ive entered the 2d half of life Ive become increasingly aware of death. As a young adult I lived with the illusion of immortality and felt bullet facts. I went through those early years as if I was indestructible.

Here in the West theres a stigma attached to reaching the half method mark, "Im over the hill" is an oft-quoted comment.
I dont have confidence were over the hill, but standing on true of the hill. From this high vantage point were able to look back and see the journey weve taken to get here. We can review our lives and trace our steps. We can see, understand and appreciate how our lifes events, and the choices weve made along the method, have made us who we are nowadays.

Forgiveness, love and compassion are what matter most in times like these. Many Ive interviewed sum up their current existence by saying theyve come to a point in their life where they feel like theyre in the wrong place with the wrong persons doing the wrong thing. This wake up call starts a means of deep inner reflection. They look around and wonder what theyre doing and what prompted the choices they made. Usually they find that their current unhappiness had its roots firmly planted in their youth.

Generally, I refer to midlife as the variety from 35 to 60 years, besides the fact that these life-exchanging crises can happen earlier or after these ages. And whilst Ill explain these crises individually for ease of understanding, its worth remembering that they rarely work in isolation. Theres more of an interdependent courting between them than you might to start with realise.
