Saw a video on Facebook with the title 10 Things You Need to Give Up If You Want to Be Happy and wanted to write down the list.
1. Limiting beliefs
2. Dwelling on the past
3. Worrying about the future
4. Negative self talk
5. The need to impress others
6. Complaining
7. The need to be always right
8. Resistance to change
9. Blaming others
10. The need for others approval
Feel good lists are great. They make you feel good. I like their list. #4, #7 and #10 could collapse into one, giving up the need to change others. For #9 prefer just blaming to blaming others, which then goes nicely with #6 Blaming and complaining
Without thinking too much about this, would keep

In the Beginning Argentine Tango Class you learn the basics of dancing the Argentine tango.
Strangely, Argentine tango is both one of the most difficult and one of the easiest dances. In this class, you learn the easy version.
What makes tango easy is that you can go as slow as you like. In other dances, you have to train your body to keep a rhythm that is faster than thinking. In tango, you can take as much time as you need to take each step. You will be dancing the first day.
This is a progressive class starting at the beginning. You learn how to walk with a partner around the room to tango music. You learn the basics of leading and following in tango closed position.
Each of the first five weeks introduces a new concept, with the last week practice and review. You can still take this class even if you are going to miss some weeks, because we review everything that you learn previously each week. There is a lot of repetiti ... Gainesville. [posts] - [more]
My favorite places to buy organic food in Gainesville, Florida are, in order: Wards, Fresh Market, Lucky's, Trader Joe's, Earth Fare, Earth Origins, Publix and the Farmer's Markets.
You have to shop around if you want the best prices. Mostly, each place has some items that are priced lower than the other places and other items priced higher.
Some places have items that you cannot find anywhere else.
I shop at a variety of places on different days, to stay stocked, get better prices and enjoy the varied scenery.
A lot of my preference is proximity to my house. Still, here are my reasons:
Ward's has a large selection of organic fresh produce and bulk foods. Ward's has most of their organic produce all together. The store is small compared to a super market, and densely packed, which I like. I can get everything visiting two small areas of the store.
Fresh Market is conveniently near my house. They have a nice produce sec ... Gainesville. [posts] - [more]

Dance competition is different than social dancing. In dance competition, you want to be judged. You want to acquire the best technical skills as fast as possible.
Social dancing is different. Social dancing is about having fun. People go social dancing to feel good.
In Yiddish we would say to have naches, which Soojin with her Korean English would say is to “have a good feeling”. In Yiddish we say your grandchildren give you naches, but your children give you tsuris, which means aggravation, grief, suffering, or in Soojin’s English a “bad feeling”.
The two biggest problems in social dancing that give you tsuris and get in the way of having a good feeling are: (1) People pushing and pulling on you, and (2) People telling you what to do.
So, try not to push and pull on anyone and try not to tell anyone what to do.
If someone starts telling you what to do, put your finger over your lip.

For DotNetNuke 7, how to upload images using the File Manager. You will want to add images to your website. The first thing you have to do is prepare the image for your website. You will need to crop, resize and make any needed adjustments until you get the image the way you want. You can use the free Paint.net to work with your images.
Once you have an image the way you want, you upload images using the File Manager. In DotNetNuke go to Admin, File Manager.
Once in the File Manager, you will need to create a folder to hold your images. You should create sub-folders within your images folder to further categorize where your store images so they will be easier to manage.
In File Manager, you navigate to the folder you want, select the image you want and click upload. [posts]
For DotNetNuke 7, how to go into edit mode on a page, select a section to edit content, copy and paste text from a Word Document to Notepad, then to the content editor, add image, clean up html.
This uses the example of adding a bio of a new director to a board of directors page.
Note that we do not use the formatting features of the content editor, such as font styles and colors. Instead, we do the formatting in the style sheet. This lets us format all the directors at once.

For DotNetNuke 7, how to delete extra lines from your text using the DotNetNuke content editor.
The content editor in DotNetNuke sometimes adds extra lines to your text. The trick to removing these lines is to delete from above, rather than on the line itself.
This uses a board of directors page as the example.
This also shows you how problems happen when you float images so that the text appears alongside an image. If the text is not long enough to go past the image, the next image and text will float alongside the prior image, with misaligned images and text.
The easiest way to fix this problem, is to space out the text to be longer that the image.
You can make more complicated CSS in the style sheet to avoid this, but that is beyond the discussion in this video. [posts]
For DotNetNuke 7, how to link a Facebook logo to your Facebook page using the content editor.
Starting at 7:15 are instructions for downloading a logo from FacebookBrand.com, adding to a DotNetNuke 7 website and linking to your Facebook page.
Normally in these videos, I only show you exactly what to do, which looks simple. However, often I encounter problems beforehand that you do not see. In the first part of this video, is a problem with a Facebook logo. You do not need to watch the first 7:15 minutes, however, if you are interested in seeing how something goes wrong and looking at the html to see why, watch the first part.
The problem occurred with SeekLogo.net, which provides Facebook logos. However, this caused a problem on DotNetNuke.

For DotNetNuke 7, how to add a page and link to that page when that page is not in the menu system.
This shows you how to create a newsletter archive page and add newsletters to the archive.
You do not want to put the newsletters in the menu system, because there are so many of them they will clutter the drop down menu.
Instead, you will build the newsletter menu manually on the archive page by creating pages and linking to them. [posts]
For DotNetNuke 7, delete a module from a page, first check to see if the module is on another page.
In this example, there are two modules on the same page with similar information, so you want to delete one. One module has a script. When you edit content, the module appears blank. In this video you will see how you can display the script, but not in a useful way. You will see how to delete one of the modules.
Before you delete a module, you want to first check to see if the module is on any other pages. If you delete a module that is on multiple pages, you will delete that module from every page. [posts]
In DotNetNuke 7, an example of how to fix spacing between lines using the content editor.
When you have extra lines, try deleting from the line above first.
If the bottom line gets pulled up to the same line as the one you are on, use Shift-Enter, that is hold the Shift key down and press Enter, to insert a line break. [posts]
For DotNetNuke 7, how to align an image to the left with text on the right and a space in between.
In this video, you will follow along with a solution to this problem. This video also includes some problems as they are encountered. Watching the problems here may be instructional.
When you add a bio of a say a director, you may want the image aligned to the left with the text on the right. You will want nice spacing between the image and the text.
The DNN content editor provides an image property editor with a left align function for images. One thing to note is that the image property editor does not work in Internet Explorer. You cannot save. I prefer Internet Explorer, but must switch to Chrome to use the image property editor.
Setting the left alignment in the image property editor does align the image, but does not add spacing.
The content editor has a CSS class you can apply called float_left, but this is only defin ... [posts] - [more]
For DNN 7, how to clean up a newsletter that you copied into the content editor.
When you copy a newsletter that was made in Constant Contact, the DNN content editor may do a good job of keeping the formatting.
The formatting will not be perfect. You have to decide if you can live with the inconsistencies.
Since the newsletter is only an archive and not one of the main pages on your website, you are better off living with the newsletter the way it is.
In this video, you will see a little of what you would have to change to clean up the newsletter.

This does not always work.

The problem is you posted a link on Facebook, but Facebook is not displaying an image for that link.
This problem can be caused if Facebook was unable to scrape the page for the link.
You can see how Facebook scrapes the page by using the link debugging tool.
If Facebook was unable to retrieve the page the first time, no image will be displayed with your link.
You can have Facebook retrieve the page again. If Facebook is successful, you will see some images. Give Facebook some time to update, and then the image should show under your link.
One of my customers received a letter from Getty Images Copyright Compliance that they were in violation of Getty's copyright.
I removed the image and put up one of my own.

Why do you want to use stock images anyway?
You have a phone, right. Take some photos. You will never be in violation of someone's copyright. How easy is that.
I dislike stock photos. They look like fake. Everyone knows they are not images of your business. I want to see authentic photos of the person's business.
My customer asked how can they tell if an image is in violation of someone's copyright. All images are in violation of someone's copyright. That person may not know, may not care, may not have given notice, may have provided for your use of the image, may have placed that image in the public domain or the copyright may have expired.

For people with little technical experience. This video shows you how to get an image out of Microsoft Word and copy that image to Paint.net so you can manipulate that image.
Suppose you have a web page with a board of directors. Someone sends you a bio for a new board member in a Word document. In that Word document is a head shot of the person.
You can click the image in Word to highlight the image. You can then right click the image and select copy to copy the image to the clipboard.
You then go to Paint.net and copy the image into Paint.net.
Once in Paint.net, you can crop and resize the image so that you have her head shot the same size as the other board members.
If for some reason, you were not able to copy the image from Word, you can use the Snipping Tool. To get to the Snipping Tool, go to your Windows start menu and type in Snipping Tool in the search box. You can then open and use the Snipping Tool to copy the image from Word into Paint.net.

How to use Paint.net to crop and resize an image. Say you have a web page with a board of directors and someone sent you a head shot image of one of the people on the board. You will need to crop and resize the image to be the same size as the other board members.
Ideally you want the image to surround the person's head and go down to their collar below their neck, so that their eyes are just above the middle.
You use the selection tool to make a box around the person's head and then crop the image. You then resize the image so that either the width or the height is the exact size you want and the other dimension is larger. You then use the selection tool to crop the larger dimension to the correct size. [posts]
In the Beginning Salsa Class you learn the basics of salsa dancing. This is not any particular style of salsa dancing. This is an introduction to the basics of salsa dancing in general. From this class, you could specialize in any type of salsa dancing, if you wanted to go more in depth, or you can use what you have learned to dance salsa when you have the chance.
This is a progressive class starting at the beginning, getting you comfortable dancing with a partner. Each of the first five weeks introduces a new concept, with the last week practice and review. You can still take this class even if you are going to miss some weeks, because we review everything that you learn previously each week. There is a lot of repetition and practice time, so you get to experience dancing.

Someone asked me what speakers to use with a computer for their dance class.
I use an iPod, not a computer. Like to travel light.
Whether you use an mp3 player or computer, you need a powered speaker to which you can directly plug your computer or other device. If you have a powered speaker, you do not need an amplifier.
For sound I used to use a Bose clock radio, which was fine.
