How to Lay a New Brick Patio | This Old House


Roger Cook and crew is out back at the Arlington house, laying a new brick patio. First they decide on the pattern, then they start laying the brick SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. The front yard of the Arlington house house has been a total mess with all the work going on around the house, but now it’s landscape contractor Roger Cook’s turn to put it back together. From landscaping to hardscaping, he has a lot of work ahead. Today he and his crew are working on the large side patio. The homeowners chose to use the same bricks that are used for the new chimney. These bricks are not modular, meaning twice the width of a brick is not equal to the length. Roger shows Kevin O’Connor different types of common brick patio patterns, starting with a running bond. The homeowners like the look of a 45-degree herringbone pattern, which makes the work harder with brick that’s not modular. Adjustments have to be made by cutting the bricks in smaller pieces. But before the brick can be laid, a lot of prep work is needed. The base has been dug out prepped and compacted with layers of stone and crusher. Using a main line at the exact grade and pitch, a screed runs down rails to level off stone dust. A sailor course of upright bricks starts the patio off at the edges and then Roger’s crew can finally start to lay in the herringbone brick pattern. Once the brick is down, they sprinkle in sand in to fill in-between the joints. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How to Read the Lovers Card | Tarot Cards


Full Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLALQuK1NDrjzupzrfTNpBbs_i1XC1Anx Hello. I'm Ellen Goldberg, and I welcome you to "A Tarot Moment" on behalf of the School of Oracles. In this segment we're going to take a look at the lover's card. What a wonderful card it is. Here we have a card of love. Both human love and divine love, and love on the interior level between the different parts of the psyche. Certainly this is a card of love between two human beings, but, you notice there's an angel in this card, too. And that angel is Rafael, the archangel of the air. For this is a card associated with the element of air, because it is ruled by the astrological sign of Gemini. Its Hebrew letter is Zion, and Zion is a sword. A strange name of a letter to be associated with Love. Certainly it would be if it were just human love. But this card is also a mandala of how the psyche works. What is really going on in our mind. There are three parts to the mind. There is a conscious part, there is a subconscious part and there is a spiritual or super-conscious part. The man in the picture represents the masculine and self-conscious mind. That's our everyday mind. The woman represents the subconscious, our feelingful nature, our intuitive nature. And the angel, Rafael, represents the super-conscious mind. Notice that there is something behind the angel. It's the sun shining, and that sun represents God, or the divine essence of which the angel is simply a representative. I like to think of this card as a Tantric menage a trois, between a man, a woman and spirit. And, truly, in deep love we often experience this transporting and spiritually uplifting condition. But it also shows us what the relationship between the three parts of the mind is. Notice, it's very curious if you look closely, that the man is looking at the woman. But the woman does not look back at the man, she's looking at the angel. The angel sends down its blessings equally on both. In other words, the conscious mind, or everyday mind, does not make the connection directly to the higher forces. It must go through the realm of the subconscious. Or as Yung said, "We must always go the way of the way of the waters," which tend downwards. We go down so as to come up, and that's we quiet the mind to receive inspiration. It is the subconscious to super-conscious hookup that will give us the divine blessing. This card can mean many things when you receive it in a reading. It can be love and cooperation between two people. It can be marriage. It can be a deep understanding. But it can also be the interior marriage of the self-conscious and subconscious. It is an alchemical mandala. It encourages, by gazing at it, the deep intimacy between all parts of the mind. So, it is called the disposing intelligence by the oldest book in the . . . of the Kabala. It is the intelligence that allows us to set things apart and make decisions, and sees how everything really works. Gemini, the twins, is a mental sign, and so know that this card is just as much mental as emotional. On its higher side, it's thought, decision, being very clear. Union, within your own self, of the masculine and feminine aspects of yourself. On the lower side, of course it can always be an unhappy love relationship, love relationship ending. But it can also be an alienation between the different parts of yourself. The inability to make a real connection to yourself. Either way, this card gives us very good information and you can use your own intuition. Because when it comes in a reading, you'll have a pretty good idea of what it's referring to.

How to Read the Justice Card | Tarot Cards


Full Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLALQuK1NDrjzupzrfTNpBbs_i1XC1Anx Hi, I'm Ellen Goldberg and I welcome you to this tarot moment with the School of Oracles.  In this segment we're going to look at the card of justice. Here we are, in the exact center of the deck and how amazing that it should line up with the Hebrew letter lamed which means "ox goad." That was the little wit which you hit the ox to make it move forward. It's associated with education and how we prod ourselves to learn. This card, and lamed, were associated with the zodiacal sign of Libra; balance. Libra is very special. It is ruled by Venus so we know that there is love, harmony and the desire for relationships and communion  with others in Libra. It's the only "we" sign of the zodiac, every other sign of the zodiac is an "I" sign. Aries, "I have." Oh, Aries "I am." I should know that, being an Aries. Taurus, "I have." Gemini, "I think," and so on. But, Libra, is we, harmonized. It's very interesting to me, that the planet Saturn, lord of Karma, is exulted in the sign of Libra. But, there's nothing Saturn, the Karma teacher, likes better than pure justice and balance and fairness.  This card is a bit like the magician and the high priestess. She combines both the masculine and feminine in her and we can see  that she has something to do with the union of opposites because her justice, she sits between pillars, just like the high priestess does, but they're not black or white, they're gray, for wisdom. Yet she has one hand up and one hand down, like the magician. That sword in her hand is the sword of justice. And Libra is an air sign and would be associated with the ace of swords which is also a sword of justice. the [inaudible] knew these things, the people who put together the oldest book of the Kaballah which takes about how the earth was formed, how our world was formed. They gave the function of lamed, work or action, which is very similar to karma. In this card, one learns to adjust ones Karma, to make adjustments to come to the center, just like we would in trying to come to the center of the wheel in the Wheel of Fortune. And notice how poised she is. She's not holding the sword haphazardly, it is raised for justice, raised for use and the golden scales she holds, why they are filled with solar energy and she uses that sword to cut away what is not necessary so that one can be in balance. What a perfect card to appear in the center of the tarot trump series. When this card comes to your reading, think carefully about how you can dock your studies. There is advice on the higher polarity and on the lower polarity on this card that says when you sit down to study, sit still. Allow yourself to become quiet and poised, that you can really take in your work. There's also advice here, because remember she cuts away what doesn't work, to keep those scales in balance that you can work with your karma. That's not a static thing, that's something that's alive, So, choice, decision, poise, activity. Even things like marriage, because Libra rules Venus, rules legal contracts, and marriage is a legal agreement. Romance can be handled in other cards but this is marriage, legal and fine. On the lower polarity, we may have divorce, we may have unpoised activity, unskillful decisions or indecision. Take time and meditate on this card and it will engender in you a feeling of quiet centeredness.

How to Read the 4 Kings | Tarot Cards


Full Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLALQuK1NDrjzupzrfTNpBbs_i1XC1Anx Hello I am Ellen Golberg and I welcome you to this tarot moment from the school of of Oracles. In this segment we're going to take a brief over view of the four kings, the court cards from the four suits of the minor arcana.  The kings belong in the Tiphareth - in the tree of life. When Crowley wrote about them, he changed their names to princes but really, they are the king as in the old sense of the king of the wood because Tiphareth  is the place of the sacrificial gods that came to Earth: Jesus, Mithras, anyone who has given themselves and their life for mankind. The king in the olden days gave his life too. All of the kings are ruled by the element of air plus the element of their suit and this helps to determine part of their personality, as well as their combination of astrological sign. All court cards that we use as significators are two thirds of a primary. Their primary sign, and one third of the sign that came before. All of the kings are the fixed sign of the zodiac. They know what they know. They've matured, and they're not changing.   Notice how each one of them wears a cap underneath his crown. That's called the cap of maintenance. It represents both responsibility to others and entertainment and success, they are at their pinnacle.  The king of wands is fire plus air. He is wonderfully magnanimous. Since he is Leo, his key phrase is "controlling appetites and passions". He has a very big capacity for enjoying life and if you know Shakespeare a little bit, he's very much like false staff. Big and full of himself in enjoying things, but he is also like Richard the Lion-Hearted because he is bold and courageous and kind and brave. This card, is primarily Leo and you can see below for the dates that will apply  in case your birthday falls within him. Notice the little salamander, his totem, right there, crawling at the bottom of the card, also behind him at the back of his throne, both lions and salamanders.  The king of cups is two thirds Scorpio so  therefore he is air and water. He is floating on the sea because he is the king who is most connected to the subconscious.  His key phrase is "drawn to a higher purpose". That's when he is on his higher polarity. On his lower polarity, he is drawn to his own purpose which is own purpose which is secret  because he is fixed water, which is the sign of Scorpio and that does have an element when it goes low, of having many secret purposes. Whether it's higher or lower, the compelling urge of the libido, the sex drive of the Scorpio, because Scorpio rules the sex drive, is very strong in him. Depending on whether he's well aspected or low aspected, you'll see how he's going to handle that.  The king of swords is very interesting to me because here is a double element of all kings are air, and all swords are airs. This is double air, meaning he is pure mind. Notice he is the only court card among all of them that does not look to the right or left, he looks straight at you, and that's because  his key phrase is "unveiling truth behind appearances". He sees. Now pure mind is amoral. Not immoral, but without, it's simply clear in truth. When he is on his higher polarity, he uses truth in a very  constructive way. When it's on his lower polarity, well, he could deceive and be untruthful also, he could use truth as a weapon because sometimes truth can be used sarcastically to hurt or name. Either way, he is pure mind, and he is the best at magician type things, it's been said.  The king of pentacles is the king of Earth. I love his key phrase "solution to all human problems and control over the environment". This man knows how to handle life on planet Earth. Notice that you can not really tell where his robe ends and where the environment begins. He is fixed Earth and that is Tarus. The king of pentacles, when he is well aspected, he can do anything, fix anything on the Earth plane. He's solid and steady, he's sensuous, and he is in tune with nature. On his lower polarity, then he becomes more self centered, plotting, maybe there's too much averous, maybe he wants too much for himself.  On behalf of the School of Oracles, I thank you for being with me.

How to Deal with the Stress of Teaching | Classroom Management


Full Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLALQuK1NDrhXufTRVKJuNUD5rgD9_Ybo Teaching is stressful. And one of the things that makes it really stressful for us is that, we deal with a lot of negative behaviors, misbehaviors or off-task behaviors from our students all day long every day. And it wears us down a little bit and one of the things to remember inside of that that will lower our stress, is to remember that students don't act out in a vacuum. Students that are coming from happy, healthy, secure backgrounds don't act out in class most of the time. Usually we're dealing with kids with really rough lives outside the classroom, and when we can remember that and have some compassion for that, it helps us lower our frustrations and that lowers our stress. And then we can work with them more productively around being accountable for their behavior but doing it in a way that isn't punishing them for misbehaving, but is rather trying to teach them behavioral lessons. So that they can survive and thrive not only in our classroom but in classrooms afterhours and throughout their schooling experience. Another thing to know about dealing with the stress of teaching is to understand that the job is infinite. Your inbox is never going to be empty, and teachers who are able to make peace with that are teachers who will lower their stress. That there's always more you can do, there's always more time you could've put into grading those essays, more time you could've have put in into designing that activity, there's always going to be more. Make peace with the fact that sometimes, you’re just not going to get done everything that could've got done, and that's okay and that's going to lower our stress. The last thing I would say is, set time aside for yourself, make limits on when you will and won't be working on school work. Leave your classroom before 6 p.m. every day. Agree with yourself that you're not going to do any school work after 7 p.m. Even if you're doing it from home, there still going to a cut off. Give yourself a day or a part of a day that you agree not to do any school, maybe no work on Sundays, or maybe just a half of Sunday, no work before noon on Sunday, just so that you can recharge your batteries. Go out, see a movie, have dinner, talk to your spouse, see your children, do something that kind of gives you vitality and energy and recharge your battery, so that you can bring yourself fully with enthusiasm to your students in the classroom. Those are some ideas about lowering your stress.

7 Everyday Uses for PVC Pipes | House One


Do you have leftover PVC pipes from your latest plumbing job? House One editor and DIY expert Jenn Largesse shares some helpful tips for what to do with PVC. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Whether you have leftover pieces or purchase a few inexpensive sections from the home center, PVC pipes can be repurposed in some pretty useful ways around the house. Here are a few ways to get started. PVC Pipe Uses for Everyday Life: Collect leaves Cut and assemble PVC pipe into a frame, and then clamp a bag around the opening to hold it upright for filling with leaves, or on its side for use as a sort-of dustpan for your rake. Store anything Cap one end of a PVC pipe, fill it with nails, screws or other hardware. Cap the remaining side and add a label for a makeshift storage container. Control stray cords Wrangle unruly cords by sliding them through a piece of PVC conduit to clean up the look and keep them safely out of the way. Extend a vacuum hose Attach a 1½ -inch-diameter tube to the end of the hose with duct tape to extend your reach in tight spaces. Divert water away from the foundation This Old House landscape contractor Roger Cook secures a perforated 4-inch-diameter tube to the end of a downspout, lays the tube in a shallow trench lined with plastic sheeting, and covers it with gravel. Water plants Drill small holes spaced several inches apart along the entire length of small pipe. Place the tube into a potted plant and add water for a slow, even soak. Make C clamp Cut a slot along the length of a pipe, and then cut it into sections to use as low-force clamps to secure a protective covering on a work surface.

What to Look for When Buying a Camera | Photography Tutorial


Full Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLALQuK1NDrh1AMI-p4ADnd3_ozDyntJU When buying a camera, keep one thing very firmly in your mind. Cameras are like a girlfriend; they're replaceable. You'll spend some money on them for awhile, but eventually a better one's going to come along. It's your lenses that you commit to. Your lenses are your wife. They're where you spend a lot of money, and they're the things you don't want to replace.  When buying a camera, make sure that you're buying a camera that you can grow into. So when you're spending money on your lenses, the lenses are interchangeable with the camera that you buy. Some people are Canon fans. Some people are Nikon fans. I'm a Canon fan. To me the brand isn't as important as how you feel you interact with it. At the end of the day, buy a camera not for the brand or not for all the features; buy the camera for your budget. Buy the camera that has the features you want to use. For example, you might not need to use an SLR. If all you want to do is take the occasional photo of a child at a soccer game or your family at Christmas, then what you can get away with with a point-and-click these days or a hybrid is just as good. But for the serious photographer that wants to take amazing photos all the time--that really wants to get involved with not just the art of photography, but the science--an SLR is the way to go. Remember, your lenses are more important. Pick your camera based on the lenses that you want to buy.

Nutritional Supplements for Autism | Autism


Full Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLALQuK1NDrgfSttv31avdJ9ZrAZGdVij Children with diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder should be evaluated for nutritional deficiencies. They tend to be very picky with food and have particular preferences with varied appetite. Data also shows that children with the autism spectrum tend to have a lot more of vitamin D deficiency, vitamin-D3. This is really a pandemic all over, but particularly with the children with the autism spectrum, vitamin-D levels tend to be low. Evaluating them and providing the adequate nutritional support is important. You can have them be in the sun, which is important but we're not in the right latitude in the northern countries. So giving supplements of D3 is important and you can work with your pediatrician. Other nutrients that are found to be low that would beneficial in kids with the autism spectrum include magnesium, zinc. There's been a lot of research on B6 and B12. Studies done by Dr. Rimland using B6 and magnesium have been positive and beneficial in children with the autism spectrum. There have been mixed studies, but more positive than negative. We are now understanding when we look at the biochemistry, how all these nutrients, whether zinc or magnesium help in the pathways at multiple levels to make the neurotransmitters work properly or the methylation process that is important. Working with adequate nutrition, if there are deficiencies, it's very important to adjust supporting the system. Of course, nutrition should be adequate in all children, having a balanced diet with adequate protein, carbohydrates, the good fats, good carbs is important. Plant based, healthy, preferably organic, wholesome, whole-food diet is good for all children but particularly for kids who have special needs. Looking for food allergies is important, because if there is inflammation of the gut, of the G.I. system, there can be difficulty, also in absorption. There's an imbalance of good and bad bacteria, which is called Dysbiosis, which also affects absorption. Making sure you get the right nutrients in and the right amount is very important. If you can get blood testing done for some amounts or some of these nutrients, it's important. Otherwise, having a good string multivitamin, making sure that the child is having a healthy diet, has good flora in the intestine, has good bacteria, having regular bowel habits, sleeping well, all these things make a difference. Something like magnesium for example helps with sleep as well as bowel movements, because it increases the tone. It is also very calming. Healthy lifestyle, healthy food and nutritional support is very important. Doing it through food is ideal, but often you need to give supplements, and there are a variety of supplements that are particularly important for children with the autism spectrum. One that I need to mention is Omega-3 fish oil. There is a lot of data on Omega-3 fish oil, which helps with IQ, fine motor development, speech language development, and is actually a very important part of the child's brain development. They're adding it to formula, and it is actually taken from the mother, while the child is a fetus. So supporting the mothers prenatally with the right nutrients and vitamins is also very important.
