Yesterday I wondered what Prime Minister Putin was up to. So today while I was drinking my coffee I thought that I would see what the President of Russia Medvedev is doing!
1. will be followed by a two-day trip to China, during which the countries will sign a number of documents, including a joint declaration on key international issues.
2. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said he will hold one-on-one talks with his French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy during the G8 summit in Japan in July.
3. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev called for reforms in Russia’s judicial system to prevent bribery and corruption, and make the courts truly independent.
4. Russia’s President Dmitry Medvedev signed an order on May 14 allowing Manchester United and Chelsea fans holding tickets for the final at Luzhniki Stadium to enter the country without visas.
5. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev visits the 54th Strategic Missile Division deployment area.

New Jersey residents affected by Hurricane Sandy in 2012 are being asked to complete an anonymous online survey that focuses on health issues they dealt with during and after the superstorm, Mercer County officials said.
The assessment is part of an initiative by the state’s Department of Health to identify gaps in the health and well-being recovery services provided to residents affected by Sandy, according to a county news release.
“All counties affected by Sandy were asked by the state to have their health departments post it,” county spokeswoman Julie Willmot said in an e-mail.
As part of the program, the DOH will provide $121,024 to each of New Jersey’s hardest hit counties: Atlantic, Bergen, Cape May, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean and Union, the release said. These funds will go toward at least one full-time program administer within that county.
The remaining 12 counties, including Mercer, will each receive $25,000 to support staff assigned to the project.
Responses are due by March 14, Willmot said.
The data will be compiled by the Mercer County Division of Public Health and used in conjunction with the New Jersey Department of Health to improve ongoing and future storm recovery efforts, the release said.
The survey can be found at in the rolling menu at the top of the home page.

While politicians and economists argue whether British voters’ decision to leave the European Union was wise, British academics fear a damaging falloff in research funding, collaboration, and talent.
Constantin Coussios, a professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Oxford, says he has “felt distinctly European my whole life.” Understandably so. Coussios is a Greek who was raised in Brussels, earned degrees at England’s University of Cambridge, and has worked and studied in Spain and France, as well as in Canada and the United States. But he and his wife have now sunk deep roots in Britain, where their three sons were born. He returned 12 years ago to join the faculty at Oxford, and he’s since also cofounded two start-ups: OxSonics, which sells an ultrasound-based cancer-drug delivery platform, and OrganOx, which markets a device to preserve organs before they’re transplanted. Oxford’s status as a global talent magnet was one of the things that lured Coussios there. “What makes Oxford an extraordinary place to work is the opportunity to attract the very best young minds from around the world,” he says. But Coussios now fears the hurdles to immigration that will undoubtedly arise in post-Brexit Britain could undermine efforts by Oxford and other United Kingdom universities to draw top researchers.
Brexit, of course, is the shorthand term for the impending British exit from the European Union. A slim majority of U.K. voters opted in a referendum last June to end their country’s 43-year-old EU membership. As of early November, it was sitll possible that Parliament could reject the decision. But one constituency is certain it was a catastrophe: British academics, who view Brexit as a threat to research and scholarship. One student described the referendum’s outcome to Coussios as “the U.K. having gone from being cool to uncool in a day.” That comment, Coussios says, “beautifully summarized a changed perception that, coupled with the political and financial uncertainties, poses very real threats to recruitment for universities and their associated innovation environments.”
It will be years before the full implications of Brexit are known. Negotiations between Britain and the EU to create a new framework for their relations could drag on to 2029 or beyond. But that long period of uncertainty could, by itself, have a corrosive effect on academic research. Across British academia, there are worries that the lead-up to Brexit could trigger an exodus of faculty and staff, jeopardize recruitment of academics, limit access to European funding and research partners, and generate a falloff in enrollments of foreign students, particularly graduate students.
“We’re seeing a lot of anecdotal evidence of negative impacts,” says Stephanie Haywood, head of the Electrical and Electronic Engineering department at the University of Hull. One Italian professor turned down a job offer, she says, and two engineering postdocs from Europe opted to reject placement offers for fear of future visa hassles. One of Haywood’s colleagues at Hull, Guy Hembury, a chemistry Ph.D. who oversees a program that helps facilitate industrial-academic research, says he and his wife, Fabienne, may relocate to her home country of France, in part because of concerns that Britain is no longer welcoming to foreigners.
To be sure, a relative handful of academics supported Brexit. But the vast majority resolutely opposed it. That’s because British researchers and universities have largely benefited from the relationship. U.K. universities receive around £1 billion ($1.25 billion) a year in research grants from the EU, or around 10 percent of their total research budget. Britain contributes to a pool of funds used to pay for grants, but it receives 60 percent more in grant money than it pays in. “The U.K. has a strong track record for securing EU research funding,” says Helen Atkinson, a trustee at the Royal Academy of Engineering and head of the Department of Engineering at the University of Leicester. While it’s hard to determine how much of that £1 billion goes to engineering research, Atkinson suspects it’s a significant portion. Back at Hull, for example, Haywood says 20 percent of the university’s research income is from Europe, but in engineering and science, it’s closer to 50 percent. The EU is also a major source of talent. Europeans account for 15 percent of academic staff across the U.K., and as much as 20 percent at some top schools.
Negotiating a Split
The British government has said it will formally notify the EU in March 2017 that it’s leaving. After that, according to EU regulations, Britain and the EU have two years to negotiate a split, during which time the U.K. remains a full member. But, says Michael Dougan, a professor of EU law at the University of Liverpool, because there are so many complicated issues to resolve, both sides could agree to extend the negotiations beyond two years, perhaps to four or five. Once a settlement is finally reached, the U.K.’s EU membership will be terminated. But that’s not the end of things. Britain and Europe will next have to negotiate the terms of their future relationship. And that complex effort, Dougan says, could easily eat up an additional10 years, leading to a decade-long gray period, during which relations between U.K. universities and the EU will be in limbo.
EU membership requires full acceptance of several bedrock principles, including free movement of people. It’s this principle that’s made it easy for academics and students to travel visa-free between member countries, helping British universities’ relations with their European counterparts. But many Britons voted “out” because they want less immigration. Conservative Prime Minister Theresa May has backed this sentiment, saying limits will be placed on Europeans immigrating to the U.K. once Britain leaves the EU. However, that stance could hamper applications for EU research grants and wreak havoc on the ability of U.K. schools to recruit staff from Europe.
Europe’s biggest pool of research money is a fund called Horizon 2020, which, as the name suggests, will parcel out grants between now and 2020, after which another fund will be created. All EU members have access to the funds. But some pro-Brexit researchers point out that nonmember countries, including Iceland and Israel, have access to Horizon grants, too, and don’t accept free movement of people. However, Dougan says, because “the U.K. does disproportionally well when it comes to research funds, that makes it a bargaining chip for the EU. It’s not likely to give the U.K. full access to funds again until it sees what it gets in return. Politics plays a role.” Even if Britain does negotiate full access to EU funds, “we’ll have no voice in making policy whatsoever,” says Mike Galsworthy, head of the lobbying group Scientists for the EU and a senior associate researcher in health policy at University College London. That’s a big loss, he says, because Britain’s science community has played a major role in shaping European science priorities.
EU grants and projects are also particularly strong at bringing in both large corporations and small and-medium-size companies to work with academic researchers, Leicester’s Atkinson points out. “That model’s been powerful, but it doesn’t really exist with purely U.K. models,” she says. The same is true for academic spin-offs, too. Neil Wilson is the CEO of Camfridge, a Cambridge start-up that’s developed a pollution-free, magnetic-based cooling system for domestic appliances. Since its launch in 2005, it has benefited from EU funding. “Those grants allow us to work with European industrial partners,” Wilson says. “If we get U.K. grants, we can’t do that.” Camfridge relies on a network of European academic and industrial research-and-development partners in large part because there are no refrigerator manufacturers in Britain. “Technically, we are not cut off from EU funding just yet, but no one wants to work with us—though there is a willingness on both sides—because the risks are too high.” Wilson says he’s already had informal talks with German and French officials about relocating the company to Europe, though it’s still just a possibility.
Industries that employ many engineers, including aerospace and automobile manufacturers, are wary of Brexit’s impact. For now, aerospace giants like Airbus and Rolls-Royce, which employ thousands in the U.K., are saying jobs are safe. But Japan’s Nissan, the largest carmaker in Britain, says that if the cars it exports from Britain to Europe are hit with tariffs, the U.K. government must either compensate it, or it will rethink its investment plans in Britain. Hembury, the chemistry Ph.D. at Hull, says another reason he’s considering leaving Britain is that big companies like Nissan and Jaguar Land Rover may decide they can’t wait several years to make investment decisions and instead will pull out of Britain or scupper expansion plans—moves that would affect his job. “It worries me that they’ll stop investing in the U.K., and if that happens, the work the university could do with them won’t happen.”
Looking Beyond Europe
As a new future framework is negotiated, could a side deal for science programs be informally worked out to keep grant money flowing into Britain? Dougan pours cold water on that notion, saying science funding “can’t continue under some sort of informal arrangement and would have to be provided for in existing EU legislation.” Once Britain is out, it’s a third-party country, no different from the United States or China—countries that have no access to EU research funds. So if U.K. academics face a long period of being frozen out from EU grant money, will the British government make up the shortfall? Haywood, the Electrical and Electronic Engineering department head at Hull, is doubtful. “I think there will be less money for projects going forward. The government is not going to replace that money.”
Uncertainty over funding has already halted some potential collaborations between British researchers and European partners. Coussios says he’s concerned about the costs of losing “these extraordinary pan-European collaborations that facilitate validation of new technologies in different markets and clinical contexts beyond our own backyard.” In August, the U.K. government put out a statement promising to fund all committed European Union/U.K. research projects through 2019. But Galsworthy, of Scientists for the EU, calls that pledge “decidedly underwhelming,” considering those are payments that the U.K. was already committed to make.
Pro-Brexit academics say the split from Europe should prod British scientists to look to the United States, China, and elsewhere for new partnerships. But Galsworthy notes that they’re free to do that now. And if British researchers find they can’t get the U.K. to pony up for lost EU grants, they may not have the cash to pursue many partnerships outside of Europe. Rebecca Keiser, head of the National Science Foundation’s Office of International Science and Engineering, diplomatically sidesteps questions about whether Brexit could potentially create more research collaborations between American and British academics. In an e-mail response to questions from Prism, Keiser stresses that Britain has been “one of the strongest partners of the U.S.” in engineering and computer science, and that’s not likely to change. “Most of the collaborations occur from the bottom up, researcher-to-researcher and research institution-to-research institution. This cooperation will continue.”
Pulling Up Stakes
Also unclear is the future status of EU nationals now living in the U.K., including academics, particularly given that the government appears to view them as a bargaining chip in the forthcoming talks. They’ll be subject to whatever new U.K. immigration laws come into place once Britain is on its own. Naomi Weir, Deputy Director of the Campaign for Science and Engineering, says, “It’s unlikely we’ll seek to kick out skilled scientists and academics.” But, as the Engineering Professors’ Council notes, unmarried partners of EU academics could wind up in “an awkward position.” The status of Coussios and his wife, Niki Trigoni, who is also Greek and an Oxford professor of computer science, is secure. The couple applied for citizenship a few years ago; they were concerned at the time that Greece might be forced out of the EU. And Camfridge’s Wilson says his European employees have all recently applied for permanent residency. “We should be OK if the government doesn’t change the rules,” he says. “But it’s a bureaucratic pain.”
The lack of clarity over immigration status, future funding, and partnerships has already persuaded some European researchers to pack their bags. Soon after the referendum, Galsworthy surveyed 351 affected researchers, and 25 percent said they were making plans to leave Britain. The same issues could also spur some British researchers to pull up stakes and head to more secure environments overseas. Science officials in several countries, including Ireland and Canada, have put out a welcome mat to British boffins. “The reality is, it is very possible to move to other parts of Europe or the world,” Weir says. “I can understand why someone might look elsewhere.”
Those uncertainties, as well as the likelihood that free movement of labor will be replaced with some sort of visa system, could also hamstring British universities’ efforts to attract talent from Europe in the future. Many European researchers feel a loyalty to the EU and won’t want to jeopardize their relationship with it by coming to Britain, Galsworthy says. “It is the people rather than the funding angle that causes me the greatest concern for our university research,” Coussios says. “The more financial and procedural barriers that are erected, the more difficult it becomes to populate this productive, innovative, and entrepreneurial environment.”
Discouraging Bright Minds
Since the referendum, there have been many well-reported racist and xenophobic attacks on foreigners in Britain. So there’s also a worry that the perception of an anti-immigrant atmosphere in the U.K. could make many foreign researchers, both in and out of Europe, apprehensive about moving there. “No one wants to contribute to a country that makes them feel unwelcome,” Weir says. Jonathan Brech, development director at Cambridge Network, a trade group for high-tech companies in Cambridge, says that already a small number of member companies “have been unable to complete new hires with European citizens, due to the individuals being uncertain.”
Concerns over how foreigners are treated in Britain could also hinder efforts to attract international students—and not just from Europe. A July survey of 1,000 prospective students around the world by Hobsons, a global education-services company, found that after the Brexit vote, a third had misgivings about studying in the U.K., and 6 percent said they definitely wouldn’t enroll in a British university. Currently, 40 percent of graduate students in the U.K. come from overseas, though the largest contingents are from China and America. At engineering schools, 16 percent of master’s graduates and 14 percent of Ph.D. graduates are foreign.
However, the Conservative government wants to dampen international student numbers to help reduce overall net migration. Four years ago, when May was home secretary, she jettisoned rules that made it easier for foreign students to remain and work in Britain for up to two years after graduation. Since then, the number of international students attending U.K. schools has been falling. In the year from June 2015 to June 2016, it dropped 15 percent to 164,000, the lowest level since 2007. Now May says she wants to tighten student numbers even further.
In a report in mid-October, the Royal Academy of Engineering challenged the government to ensure that Brexit doesn’t diminish Britain’s engineering skills base or its research capacity. The report notes that 22 percent of faculty members, 13 percent of undergraduates, and 24 percent of graduate students at the country’s nine top engineering schools come from other EU countries. Without access to European research funding, “the U.K. is likely to become a less attractive destination for the brightest and best students and researchers,” the report says.
Higher education advocates say the U.K.’s attitude toward foreign students is self-defeating, noting that they annually contribute £8 billion ($9.9 billion) to the British economy. The crackdown on foreign students “is particularly troublesome in engineering, where we have a skills shortage,” Haywood says. “But we push these people away.” That certainly is a headache for British universities and engineering schools. But given the additional problems that Brexit will likely unleash, there are many more pains to come.

When I got last week's assignment for the photography class I'm doing, I about died. "Anything But People." What?!?! How in the world are you supposed to photograph random things laying around your house?
It was with a very skeptical outlook that I started ransacking the house for little picture ideas, but...you know what? I actually had a lot of fun with it! Last week totally made me "Push Past My Comfort Zone"; ironically the name of the photo class!
So, here are a few little things around our house that aren't people :)
After mentally debating with myself whether it was worth it or not to venture out into the heat (thermometer was reading 114), I decided to take the plunge. Lighting outside is just incomparable!
But as I walked out our front door, these little fried roses were the first things I saw...seemed appropriate! (and the light and bokeh are just heavenly!!)
This week's assignment was super fun, too...concentrating on slow versus fast shutter speed. These two pictures were in our irrigation canal. First one had a fast shutter speed (the water looks frozen) and the second one had a slow shutter speed (water is flowing). For those fellow photographers, the settings are on the pictures.
I will hopefully be posting some more shutter speed pictures later on. This class is teaching me so much!!! | http://atruefocus.blogspot.com/2012/08/ | 2017-04-23T13:48:43 | CC-MAIN-2017-17 | 1492917118707.23 | [

Gymnastic riding is the art of bringing the horse's movement into balance with the rider's postural influence.
It opens the door to a whole new connection with the horse, one that speaks a universal language of true relevance to horses - the language of balanced and empowered motion. This language transcends the divisions between riding disciplines, and is therefore relevant to any kind of rider.
Normal riding, in the majority of riding disciplines, seeks to control the horse's actions using the reins and the legs, often with the help of various bits, spurs and the whip. Although it is often rudimentary, this kind of communication with the horse can become very sophisticated, as the horse becomes conditioned to respond in certain ways to subtle signals. However, it is fundamentally NOT the same kind of interaction as gymnastic riding, which is first and foremost a physical, biomechanical connection.
In Gymnastic Riding, the rider develops their posture in a particular way so that each part of their body helps to channel the horse's body into alignment and promote optimal transmission of the horse's energy from the haunches through to the front end.
The whole mechanism of the rider's body becomes profoundly connected to the mechanism of the horse's body. This closes the gap in communication between signal and response that is always present with other forms of riding.
Although many riding disciplines, in particular dressage, set out to improve the the horse's balance and agility, this can only be done in a truly effective way using a postural connection, because this is the only way we can truly change the horse's natural imbalances.
When the rider 'plugs-in' posturally to the horse's body, the depth and continuity of the connection allows the rider firstly to feel the way the energy of motion is transmitted though the horse's body, and secondly to address any ways in which energy is being lost - for example, misalignment and blockages of any sort.
It is only this postural connection developed in Gymnastic Riding that can allow the rider to 'get inside' the horse's body in this way, and to transcend the approximation that is inevitable in any other kind of riding connection.
More on exactly what this postural connection involves later in the article, first let's look at the reasons for putting the effort into riding in this way.
Horses have adapted their own way of balancing in movement over millions
of years of evolution. Naturally, they use their bodies in a way that
balances energy efficiency with minimal strain on the joints.
Five important characteristics of the horse's natural balance are:
These characteristics demand our consideration because, with the addition of a rider on the horse's back, they ALL lead to lack of balance, loss of transmission of energy, and long-term physical damage.
When we sit on a horse, we interfere with their natural balance in a profound way. When the horse continues to balance in their in-built way with a rider on-board, considerable strain is put on the spine and the limbs. Natural misalignment and crookedness which are absorbed by the horse's natural balance without a rider, become accentuated under the rider's weight and constant demands.
In order for the horse to support the imposition of the rider, we need to show them a different way of carrying their body altogether. The basis of this alternative is postural engagement.
The postural 'ring' of muscles creates a system of support for the whole spine, keeping it lifted under the rider's weight like a suspension bridge. This protects the vertebrae and connective tissues from compression and eventual damage.
Engagement on the postural ring also draws the hindlegs further under the body mass, allowing the horse to carry more weight on the haunches, and less on the forehand. This is very important for carrying a rider in balance, as too much weight on the forehand causes rushed movement, strain on the forelimbs, resistance in the rein contact, and lack of maneuverability.
The alignment of the horses body (also referred to as 'straightness') is also vital to the horse carrying the rider in balance and comfort. There is a very close relationship between postural engagement and straightness. On one hand, the horse has to be aligned to a sufficient degree for the postural ring to be able to engage in the first place, and once the horse is working consistently in engagement, the ring itself becomes a powerful force that draws the horse (and rider) gradually towards straightness.
Unfortunately, the majority of riders, even in educated circles of dressage riding, are unaware of how to create postural engagement in the horse, and they often try to deal with natural imbalances when they get to the front end.
Some don't agree with the very existence of the postural ring, but this is understandable, because it's perfectly possible to ride horses for an entire lifetime without ever feeling true engagement. It is such a particular and unique phenomenon that it is never something one just stumbles upon. Although many riders may feel glimpses of engagement - those magical moments of unity with the horse - if they do not pursue it, and follow the process of developing their body in the necessary way to achieve it, they may never realize that it is a whole different realm from normal riding, or the 'short-cuts' of spurs and double-bridles.
This video shows the reality of the forceful use of the bit.
The bit is so often used to block too much forward movement, to attempt to 'lift the horse up in front', to 'get the horse to come round', and to compensate for lack of alignment in the horse's body. However, all of this is only papering over the cracks - once an imbalance has reached the horse's mouth, it is TOO LATE for the rider to do anything meaningful about it.
Compensating for imbalances with the bit only fixes them more into place, and further stifles the flow of energy coming through the horse's body from the haunches. Holding onto the reins in order to either keep your own balance or to attempt to control the horse's balance in any way is detrimental to the horse both physically and psychologically.
One of the most essential principles of Gymnastic Riding is that the rider must let go of the fixation on controlling the horse's direction, speed, balance and posture with the bit in order to 1) connect to the horse's body in a different way, and 2) open the door for the energy to be channeled through the horse's body from behind.
Gymnastic riders must learn to stop holding on to the reins, and start plugging-in to the horse's body with their seat, legs and posture. For this reason, an apprenticeship of riding on the lunge, with no reins to hold onto, along with correct instruction on the position, is the ideal first step in the process of learning this way of riding.
Next to the power of the horse, the human being is a weak little thing. How can we hope to influence the powerful forces of the horse's movement with our posture alone? Especially when we are sitting onto of his back with no external fulcrum of support!
The way we do this is similar to the way a master of martial arts may easily repel an opponent many times bigger and more muscular.
The power of the posture is in its connectivity. Postural strength is about creating power in the connective tissues, which gives a tensile quality to the structure of the body. This tensile quality is necessary for any transmission of energy though the body's structure.
Examples of how Energy is Transmitted Through Tensile Structures:
The unusual task of the rider is to be able to connect to another large body or movement, and then to create a tensile quality in their own posture, which, by means of the adhesive connection of the seat, reaches through into the horse's body, and connects to the power of the horse's movement.
The movement becomes channeled by the tensile connection of the rider's posture, and this triggers the horse's own postural system to come into engagement.
The postural ring holds the spine in a consistent tensile stretch, so that energy can be transmitted through it from the propulsive hindlegs, towards the front end, just like the sound waves going through the string from one yoghurt pot to the other. This is the true meaning of the horse being 'through'.
The whole thing becomes a powerful mechanism for recycling and transmitting energy, very much like the gear system in a bicycle or a car.
It is easy to confuse the use of the word 'tensile' in relation to the posture with 'tension', but they are not the same at all. Gymnastic riding is not at all about either horse or rider becoming tense - in fact it's the very opposite, relaxation on a profound level is a prerequisite for a postural interaction to take place - much like a martial arts master is profoundly calm and centered in order to be able to channel their energy precisely and powerfully. Connective tissues cannot store and transmit energy if there is too much muscular tension interfering. This is partly why HHT puts so much emphasis on the horse's lifestyle promoting calm and relaxation as a foundation for training.
The tensile quality of the posture is simply a way of creating the leverage necessary to bring powerful unbalanced forces of motion into balance.
The rider can only create this postural interaction when they have first created a very harmonious connection with the horse through the adhesive seat: a way of developing the seat that allows it to become totally unified with the horse's movement.
It's like we have to first plug the socket into the wall, then the voltage (a kind of tensile quality on an electromagnetic level) can connect and turn on the appliance. The rider plugs into the horse with a harmonious, adhesive seat, and then the cohesive posture can connect through to the horse's movement and influence his own way of carrying himself.
You could also imagine that you wanted to move a heavy stone using the leverage of a stick - the stick has to have a good, stable connection with the stone before you can apply the leverage that will shift it. In riding, the connection is the adhesive seat, connecting to the energy of the hindlegs, and the leverage is the postural connectivity.
The engagement of the horse's postural ring means that each time a hindleg pushes off the ground, there is a postural resistance in the horse's body, that sucks that energy through from the hindleg into the horse's body, amplifying its power and sending it through the horse's spine.
This postural resistance acts like a spring, so that after each hindleg
has stretched the spring by pushing out behind, when it then steps
forwards, the spring recoils and creates a stronger, bigger step
forwards. When the horse steps further under his body mass from behind,
his spine can lift more easily and support the rider's weight better,
and this lift creates a natural softening into the bridle as the whole
spine becomes 'round'.
Dr. Deb Bennett, an expert on horse anatomy, conformation and biomechanics, and who developed the concept of the ring of postural muscles in the horse, has stated that Dolphins and Whales posses a similar postural ring dynamic as that of the horse working in engagement (see her excellent book Principles of Conformation Analysis).
This mechanism could well be the reason that dolphins can generate extraordinary speed and power when they swim and leap in the water.
Interestingly, a long-standing mystery has surrounding this very subject, named 'Gray's Paradox', since 1936 when the scientist Sir James Grey conducted studies that showed that a dolphin's muscle mass is not sufficient to generate the power and speed that they are capable of producing when swimming.
Recent studies have shown that dolphins use their tail like a postural spring, to store and release energy which propels them through the water. It has been found that they can generate massive propulsive forces with each flip of their tail fluke (see this article).
There are theories that this is due to their ability to store energy in connective tissues that connect the tail to the spine. It seems likely that dolphins are in fact using a whole-body postural ring of muscles in order to amplify the propulsion of their tail action, just like the way an engaged horse amplifies the energy generated by the thrust of each hindleg.
It is interesting that these recent studies are linking the dolphin's power to energy stored in the connective tissues, as this is the secret to the postural torque used to channel energy in gymnastic riding.
Imagine if a dolphin let their belly flop down when their tail pushes back - they wouldn't generate much power! This is what happens when a horse carries a rider without postural engagement - their back drops each time a hindleg pushes off. Even though the horse succeeds in sending his body forwards in relation to the ground, there is little transmission of energy through the structure of the body, so much of the power of propulsion is lost.
Without transmission, there is no power or grace with which to lift the rider, and there is an unpleasant feeling of disconnection between the haunches and the front end.
The equivalent to this loss of postural leverage in the rider's body is if they let their pelvis drop down onto the pubic bone each time the horse's hindlegs are pushing off, allowing their abdomen to stretch and push forwards. When the rider allows this to happen, it also allows and encourages the horse to drop their belly and back, eliminating the support of postural engagement on the ring.
The rider's pelvic orientation is crucial in the postural influence they have over the horse. If we sit in the way the horse's movement naturally places us (and unfortunately the way that riders are usually taught to sit), then we will encourage the horse to drop his back instead of lifting it.
In fact there is always a beautiful mirroring dynamic between the horse's and rider's bodies. Whether this mirroring is good or bad comes down to whether we choose to let ourselves mirror the horse's natural imbalances, or whether we create a new dynamic of balance in our own body, and allow the horse to mirror that.
Once a rider achieves the phenomenon of postural engagement to any degree, they are usually hooked from that point on, because no other sensation on horseback can compare to the magnificent feeling of plugging into this channeled power.
Bringing the horse into balance for carrying a rider is not only protective and therapeutic for the horse, it is also greatly fulfilling and enjoyable for the rider on many levels. On the level of sensation alone, even a basic mastery of a postural, adhesive connection with the horse makes riding so much more comfortable and enjoyable.
When the rider becomes able to create consistent engagement, the sensation of channeled power is wonderful, and incomparable to ordinary riding. The rider feels their weight is lifted by the supporting hindlegs and stretched spine, instead of being dropped onto the forehand with a sagging spine.
Gymnastic riding is as therapeutic for the rider as it is for the horse - it promotes a strong postural core, and a supple spine that does not get concussed by the horse's movement. The hip joints and sacroiliacs become much more loose and supple, and the rider's own unevenness is gradually addressed as they correct their interaction with the horse.
If a rider has the determination to follow the process of transforming their body over many years, they will reach a point where the posture becomes easy to assume and feels natural. They will be able to achieve consistent postural engagement with any horse that is physically and mentally able to do so, instead of managing only fleeting, elusive moments of this unique sensation.
When, in turn, the horse is trained in postural engagement over several years, they will transform on many levels, becoming increasingly powerful, supple and capable of diversity of movement within balance. Their work will also provide them with a deeply healing inner calm and reassurance - the only way that a human can really replace the security of the herd in a horse's mind.
Our passion for riding is rooted in dressage, but we have chosen to adhere so strongly to certain ideals of dressage concerning the quality of the movement, that we have been led away from the usual practice of dressage - whether 'competitive', 'classical' or any other school.
The fundamental difference between gymnastic riding and the vast majority of dressage riding is that gymnastic dressage is guided by feel, with the goal of improving quality of movement, whereas most traditional dressage is guided by the process of training certain movements, with the goal of achieving precision and increasing complexity of their performance, along with a particular outer appearance of the horse and rider. One is based on the inner, and the other on the outer.
When any rider is working with a horse, they are faced with choices continuously, and they are forced to prioritize. For example, we may choose we want to do a certain exercise, which requires performing a particular figure, but we also must choose how we ask the horse to do this, and whether the quality of the horse's balance and transmission during the exercise is more important than, for example the precision of the figure performed, or the promptness of the horse's response to our demand.
As soon as we start to prioritize the appearance of what we do over the feeling of how the horse does it, we start choosing to ignore the quality of the horse's balance and transmission, and we start prioritizing precision, 'obedience', learned responses and so on. In order to do this, we start having to use more forceful control with the reins, spurs, whip etc, along with increasing mental conditioning of the horse.
This is the great pitfall of dressage riding.
We may succeed in creating a 'pleasing' appearance, and produce an 'impressive' performance, but we will have lost the whole essence and meaning of dressage - the magical feeling of balanced, unrestrained motion.
If we choose to prioritize the feeling of the horse moving in balance and alignment when we ride, through our postural connection, then we will be led to use whatever exercises are appropriate in each moment with a particular horse.
Training becomes an organic, intuitive process, instead of rigid conditioning. It may take years before we achieve precision of performance that is genuinely based on perfectly balanced, aligned movement.
Some horses, due to their individual limitations, will never be able reach a high level of dressage performance when they are trained in this way, because the physical demands of engagement are so high that a certain level of natural suppleness and good conformation is required for the highest level of work, within postural engagement (of course, any horse can be trained to do the high-level movements with trick training, where there is no postural engagement).
All horses can, however, benefit from an improved quality of movement (transmission, alignment, evenness, suppleness, and balance) when trained in postural engagement.
This is the difference of gymnastic dressage: whatever level of training they reach, an ordinary horse will have the quality of their movement enhanced, and a talented horse can have the quality of their movement elevated to a sublime level.
In appearance-based dressage, ordinary and talented horses alike will have the quality of their natural gaits gradually diminished over time, even though they may be trained (conditioned) to perform advanced movements with accuracy.
The constant blocking of their movement by the rider seeking control through the bit, the misalignment of natural crookedness which is not addressed, and the overall wear of carrying a rider without postural support and lift, stiffen the joints throughout the body and corrupt the purity of the gaits. The injuries sustained by many dressage horses by the end of their career is proof of the damaging effects of this way of riding. It is only gymnastic riding and postural engagement that can protect the horse from this.
Most dressage puts the level of performance achieved first, and the gymnastic value of the work is very often sacrificed.
Every rider must make this simple choice: whether to put their feel first, or the appearance of what they do. There is no half-way-house - the feeling of truly balanced movement is so difficult to achieve that if we let other concerns start to creep into our attention, we are sure to lose our way on the path towards gymnastic purity.
The choice we make has a lot to do with how much we rely on the recognition of others, or how much we are open to follow a more internal path of discovery.
If you are someone who is attracted to dressage, or riding in general, by it's aesthetic qualities, then there are three major reasons you may be put off gymnastic riding, or told by others that it is incorrect:
Riding well is not just about a physical process of development. It also requires that we develop ourselves on a conscious level. Whether or not we are aware of this aspect of ourselves, when we start down the path of creating a gymnastic connection with the horse, developing our own body and that of the horse's in the right way, we will inevitably be faced with a series of challenges that require us to form our character and evolve on a conscious level.
First, there is the basic challenge of developing concentration and mental discipline.
From this foundation, we can start to develop a heightened awareness of our body and that of the horse's, beyond the level of our everyday perception.
In addition to these mental challenges, we will be continuously faced with our ego in its many forms.
Of course, one of the biggest obstacles to the gymnastic rider is the temptation of seeking external recognition. This can come in many forms - from anyone who judges us externally, but also from our own choice to value ourselves on the basis of external goals.
Seeking recognition will always lead us away from the development of feel.
Riding and working with horses provides us with a wonderful opportunity to develop true honesty, humility, patience and compassion. There are constant opportunities to recognize the destructiveness of the frustration we feel when our expectations are not met, and to learn the power of always staying in the present moment, accepting the process as it unwinds, and realising our power to manifest the state we choose in unison with the horse.

PHOENIX
In the grand scheme of birthdays, turning 20isn't much to celebrate.
Your teenage years are lost forever, which means you can never again take comfort in the knowledge that you do, in fact, know everything. But at the same time, you are still a year away from being able to confidently walk into a liquor store without fear of being sent away empty-handed and humiliated.
Unfortunately for you, you are not Clayton Kershaw.
Kershaw is the Dodgers' top pitching prospect. Kershaw hit the big two-oh on Wednesday. And Kershaw happens to have the world by the tail.
In the past two weeks alone, Kershaw has mowed down three of the world champion Boston Red Sox's best hitters in Mike Lowell, J.D. Drew and Sean Casey, all without a ball leaving the infield; been promoted from minor-league spring training to the big-league side, whereupon he followed up that performance with a total of five shutout innings against Washington and Florida; and become an Internet celebrity when the administrator of a popular Dodgers fan blog posted video of Kershaw freezing Casey on an especially nasty curveball.
As a result of all that, Kershaw was with the the Dodgers when they joined the Cactus League last week. He has come a long way, both figuratively and geographically, from the spartan minor-league clubhouse in Vero Beach, Fla., where the room is crowded, the lockers are glorified chicken wire, and the jerseys don't have names on the back.
What exactly were you doing when you turned 20?
"This has been fun so far," Kershaw said, with his boyish smile on full display.
"Coming into camp, I thought I might come over a couple of times and pitch in a couple of big-league games, but I never thought I would get to stay up here."
Well, truth be told, he won't get to stay much longer. The Dodgers' Opening Day roster has to be set in eight days, and Kershaw won't be on it. He is almost certain to begin the season at Double-A Jacksonville, where he made just five starts after a late-season promotion last summer and was really, really good, but, in his own words, "I didn't dominate there."
Come April, he'll get another chance to do that. If all goes well, he'll likely get another promotion sometime this summer - not to the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, where Dodgers officials quietly admit they probably will never send him - but to the majors.
"For me, he is way beyond his age in terms of maturity," said Marty Reed, the Dodgers' minor-league pitching coordinator. "He does everything at game speed. I think he is still a ways away, but I just think he needs a little more seasoning at Double-A. He could be ready by midseason. I think his best move will be to go from Double-A straight to the big leagues."
And then, in a way that didn't sound at all hyperbolic, Reed finished his statement.
"This is the best pitching prospect I have ever seen in my 10 years with this organization," he said.
Funny, but Kershaw doesn't carry himself like a best-ever anything. There is no hint of arrogance or cockiness. There is nothing about him to suggest he was ever a first-round draft choice, or that he received a $2.3 million signing bonus when the Dodgers snatched him up with the seventh overall pick in 2006.
"What made me sure this kid would be something special was when I asked him what kind of car he was going to buy with his bonus," said Calvin Jones, the Dodgers' Dallas-based area scout who discovered Kershaw while checking out a pitcher from a rival high school. "He said he was going to get an F-150 pickup. I knew then he would be all right, because he wasn't going to try to be anything other than what he was."
Kershaw says he comes by his lack of pretense naturally.
"It's just the way I grew up," Kershaw said. "All my friends back home, my family, that's just kind of how it is. You stay humble, and you don't let anything get too big or too small. I think it has a lot to do with where I'm from and how I was raised."
Kershaw was young when his parents divorced, and his mother, Marianne, did what she could to make the best of it for him. She kept him in a private school as long as she could afford it. When she couldn't, she moved him to the ritzy Dallas suburb of Highland Park, where the public education was good and so were the high school Athletics.
"Highland Park is actually a very affluent area," Kershaw said. "My mom and I weren't really one of the affluent families there, but it was a great place to grow up. She had to keep us afloat there for a while, and I'm really thankful to her for that."
In his junior season at Highland Park High - a school that produced football legends Doak Walker and Bobby Layne, current University of Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford and San Diego Padres pitcher Chris Young - Kershaw grew into his body and became a star pitcher. He had a good enough season to grab the attention of major-college recruiters, and after visiting Oklahoma State and Stanford, he committed to Texas A&M in the fall of his senior year.
By the following spring, when Kershaw had the full attention of Jones and a host of other professional scouts, that commitment had become moot.
Jones knows a little something about first-round draft picks, having been one himself when the Seattle Mariners took him No. 1 overall back in 1984. He also knows a little something about pitchers, having been one those too.
After seeing Kershaw pitch once, Jones didn't need to see anymore.
"It was like seeing a girl in a bar and instantly knowing she is the woman you're going to marry," Jones said. "This kid had the best arm I had ever seen, and I came up with Randy Johnson in Seattle. After that, I started doing my homework, and everybody I talked to said great things about the kid. I was like, can he really be that good? But you could tell he had great makeup just by the way he handled the pressure. He was off the charts makeup-wise."
Two years later, others in the organization are seeing exactly what Jones saw.
"It's hard not to like his whole demeanor," Dodgers manager Joe Torre said. "He is a confident kid without being cocky about it."
For all you who say Kershaw should start now....there doesn't seem to be anyone in Dodger management who doesn't think he needs at least a half a season in AA. He's only pitched 5 games in AA. No one doubts he's going to be great, but even Kershaw says he didn't dominate in AA.. even he doesn't think he's quite ready yet. I do agree with skipping AA and going straight to the Majors. I live in Vegas. AAA is a pitchers nightmare.
I trust all the Dodger management in their evaluation of there own prospects. They are the ones who see them everytime. They have no reason to lie to us. You should always err on the side of caution when it comes to young pitching, the exact opposite with young hitting.
DePodesta- I mean DPWTV-
Please don't get me started on the Dodgers Braintrust and please don't make me put my copy and paste skills to work because ladodgers.com has two wonderful articles on Clayton Kershaw that contradict what your 'reporter' has to say in this article. We all know where CK is going. My point is, if we are going to put our best players on the field, Kershaw is the Dodgers best option for a number five and at the very least, a situational lefty. As I have stated before, this kid is probably the most highly regarded pitching prospect (by many accounts) in two decades. This spring he made some of the best hitters in both leagues look like boys to a man. I don't need someone to copy and paste an article for me, nor do I need someone to state the extremely obvious for me. Again, CK is an anomoly. Typical baseball logic does not apply to the level of talent and maturity this guy brings to the table.
Everyday, more and more teams are following the baseball model of the Florida Marlins, and the really good teams are mixing their farms with the veterans and turning out the most exciting baseball in years. Today's conventional baseball wisdom is not "conventional".
Finally, I'm not against you or anyone else stating their opinion, but please...going forward...state your opinion and not someone else's. However, I am opposed to someone starting a new thread to dispute what someone else has stated on a separate but very relevant thread. Especially, when you don't respond on that thread with a reasonable position (you didn't respond at all). It's as if you think by starting a new thread, we are supposed to forget about the issues and points we raised in the first thread...or, maybe you just don't want anyone else to see the very good points someone else has made in direct opposition of your view. In either case, it takes away from the board.
You have valid points and i don't think you're against me or my opinion. We both want the Dodgers to win now. i think we have a better chance of winning with leaving Kershaw in the minors for the start of spring training. I know he's had a phenomenal spring, I just still think he needs a little more time. Do I base it on empirical data, nope. As i said, when it comes to young pitching, i always err on the side of caution.

Article: Predicting mortality for patients with exacerbations of COPD and Asthma in the COPD and Asthma Outcome Study (CAOS)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Decisions about the intensity of treatment for patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) are influenced by predictions about survival and quality of life. Evidence suggests that these predictions are poorly calibrated and tend to be pessimistic. The aim of this study was to develop an outcome prediction model for COPD patients to support treatment decisions. ('c') of 74.7% after bootstrapping that was more discriminating than the clinicians (P = 0.033) and was well calibrated. This study has produced an outcome prediction model with slightly better discrimination and much better calibration than the participating clinicians. It has the potential to support risk adjustment and clinical decision making about admission to intensive care.QJM: monthly journal of the Association of Physicians 05/2009; 102(6):389-99.

Article: Survival and quality of life for patients with COPD or asthma admitted to intensive care in a UK multicentre cohort: the COPD and Asthma Outcome Study (CAOS)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT:. A prospective cohort study was carried out in 92 intensive care units and 3 respiratory high dependency units in the UK. Patients aged 45 years and older with breathlessness, respiratory failure or change in mental status due to an exacerbation of COPD, asthma or a combination of the two were recruited. Outcomes included survival and quality of life at 180 days. Of the 832 patients recruited, 517 (62%) survived to 180 days. Of the survivors, 421 (81%) responded to a questionnaire. Of the respondents, 73% considered their quality of life to be the same as or better than it had been in the stable period before they were admitted, and 96% would choose similar treatment again. Function during the stable pre-admission period was a reasonable indicator of function reported by those who survived 180 days. Most patients with COPD who survive to 180 days after treatment in an intensive care unit have a heavy burden of symptoms, but almost all of them-including those who have been intubated-would want similar intensive care again under similar circumstances.Thorax 11/2008; 64(2):128-32.

Article: Implications of prognostic pessimism in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma admitted to intensive care in the UK within the COPD and asthma outcome study (CAOS): multicentre observational cohort study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To determine whether clinicians' prognoses in patients with severe acute exacerbations of obstructive lung disease admitted to intensive care match observed outcomes in terms of survival. Prospective cohort study. 92 intensive care units and three respiratory high dependency units in the United Kingdom. 832 patients aged 45 years and older with breathlessness, respiratory failure, or change in mental status because of an exacerbation of COPD, asthma, or a combination of the two. Outcome predicted by clinicians. Observed survival at 180 days.. Because decisions on whether to admit patients with COPD or asthma to intensive care for intubation depend on clinicians' prognoses, some patients who might otherwise survive are probably being denied admission because of unwarranted prognostic pessimism.BMJ (online) 01/2008; 335(7630):1132.

Article: Chronic fatigue following infection by Coxiella burnetii (Q fever): ten-year follow-up of the 1989 UK outbreak cohort.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Some patients exposed to Q fever (Coxiella burnetii infection) may develop chronic fatigue. To determine whether subjects involved in the West Midlands Q fever outbreak of 1989 had increased fatigue, compared to non-exposed controls, 10 years after exposure. Matched cohort study comparing cases to age-, sex- and smoking-history-matched controls not exposed to Q fever. A postal questionnaire was sent to subjects at home, followed by further assessment in hospital, including a physical examination and blood tests. Of 108 Q-exposed subjects, 70 (64.8%) had fatigue, 37 idiopathic chronic fatigue (ICF) (34.3%), vs. 29/80 (36.3%) and 12 (15.0%), respectively, in controls. In 77 matched pairs, fatigue was commoner in Q-exposed subjects than in controls: 50 (64.9%) vs. 27 (35.1%), p<0.0001. ICF was found in 25 (32.5%) of Q-exposed patients and 11(14.3%) of controls (p=0.01). There were 36 (46.8%) GHQ cases in Q-exposed subjects, vs. 18 (23.4%) controls (p=0.004). A matched analysis of those more intensively studied showed fatigue in 48 (66.7%) Q-exposed patients and 25 (34.7%) controls, (p<0.0001), ICF in 25 (34.7%) Q-exposed and 10 (13.9%) controls (p=0.004), and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in 14 (19.4%) Q-exposed patients and three (4.2%) controls (p=0.003). Thirty-four (47.2%) Q-exposed patients were GHQ cases compared to 17 (23.6%) controls (p=0.004). Subjects who were exposed to Coxiella in 1989 had more fatigue than did controls, and some fulfilled the criteria for CFS. Whether this is due to ongoing antigen persistence or to the psychological effects of prolonged medical follow-up is uncertain.QJM: monthly journal of the Association of Physicians 08/2002; 95(8):527-38. · 2.46 Impact Factor | http://www.researchgate.net/researcher/34447357_Jayne_Groves | 2015-03-27T02:02:06 | CC-MAIN-2015-14 | 1427131293580.17 | [] | 68 |
“Mom, did you know that you have the exact same hair as Steven Tyler? You could almost be twins.” Anna-11
…except for the fact that I’m not a 63-year-old, uber-famous, male, recovered drug-addict, rocker. Putting all that aside, there is actually a bit of a resemblance and I am kind of flattered. Maybe I’ll pop in a couple of braids and feathers for my afternoon trip to the bus stop…shake things up a bit. Possibly start a new trend amongst the 40-somethings here in town. Move over Steven Tyler…you’ve got some competition.
Steven Tyler also looks like my old shrink, who’s a woman. I found this slightly disconcerting while on the couch, but weirdly comforting when watching American Idol.
I think I’d like a shrink that looks like Steven Tyler. Did she wear feathers in her hair too? 😉
My elderly auntie thought Steven Tyler was a woman. Immediately, in my head, I started singing “Dude looks like a Ladeeeeeeeee!”
Cheers ! MJ
I love it…your auntie sounds like a wise woman. Thanks so much for reading and for taking the time to comment. Cheers right back at ya! | https://youngamericanwisdom.com/2011/05/05/my-mothers-twin/ | 2018-12-10T03:23:36 | CC-MAIN-2018-51 | 1544376823236.2 | [] | 121 |

NEW YORK — An African-American teen executed in 1931 for the murder of a white woman was exonerated by a Pennsylvania court this week, after decades of lobbying by his only surviving sister.
Alexander McClay Williams, age 16, was convicted by a white jury in just four hours, and remains the youngest person ever put to death in the eastern US state.
But 91 years later, a county judge dismissed the case and declared Williams was innocent.
“I’m just happy that it finally turned out the way it should have in the beginning,” Williams’ sister, Susie Williams-Carter, was quoted by the Philadelphia Inquirer as saying on Thursday.
“We just wanted it overturned, because we knew he was innocent, and now we want everyone else to know it, too,” the 92-year-old said.
Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer said in a statement that the case was dismissed on Monday, after years of litigation.
The decision “is an acknowledgement that the charges against him should never have been brought,” the statement said.
The case is the latest recognition of historic racial injustices in the US legal system, which convicted and in several cases executed innocent Americans, many of them Black, in the century following the 1861-1865 Civil War.
On October 3, 1930, the estranged ex-husband of Vida Robare, a white matron at the Glen Mills School for Boys, a detention center for young offenders, found Robare’s body.
She had been “brutally murdered” in her cottage, which was on the school’s grounds, the district attorney’s statement said. The ex-husband, Fred Robare, also worked at the school.
Williams, who was serving an indefinite term at Glenn Mills, was charged with the crime.
Interrogated five times without the presence of a lawyer or a parent, he signed three confessions — “despite the lack of eyewitnesses or direct evidence implicating him,” the statement continued.
When he was finally appointed a lawyer, it was William H. Ridley, the first African-American member of the county bar.
“Ridley was given $10 by the Court for expenses (approximately $173 today), and had only 74 days to establish a defense, without the assistance of investigators, experts, or resources,” the statement said.
“The Commonwealth had assembled a 15-member team to handle the trial, which lasted less than two days. The defendant faced an all-white jury, which found him guilty in less than four hours. No appeal was ever filed.”
Stollsteimer paid tribute to the Williams’ sister and Ridley’s great-grandson, who “worked tirelessly for years to demonstrate the inconsistencies in the evidence as well as the unscrupulous manner in which the case was handled.”
There was “substantial” evidence that was either ignored or unexamined, he said.
That included the bloody handprint of an adult male found near the door of the crime scene, photographed by police but never mentioned at trial — and the fact Vida Robare divorced her husband for “extreme cruelty,” but he was never examined as a suspect.
“We believe that this young man’s constitutional protections were violated in an irreparable way,” said Stollsteimer.. | https://www.mayorsandcities.com/black-us-teen-cleared-of-murder-91-years-after-his-execution/ | 2022-06-25T10:12:47 | CC-MAIN-2022-27 | 1656103034930.3 | [] | 47 |
Trying an RN at Hahnemann University Hospital which provides care to an underserved population. When I started my job, I was a little scared, quite frankly, I was terrified. However, with time, and the most AMAZING co-workers, and most times- the sweetest patients I found myself loving my job (sure it was tough at times, but no job is perfect). It gave me great fulfillment knowing that I was effecting positive change in the life of others. Added bonuses- I had the most amazing director. He was so blunt but he kept it REAL 100%, all the time. I had the BEST co-workers. Seriously, I give my director SO much credit for hand picking the most talented, bright, most down to earth people. We have this incredible bond that I could not be more grateful to have kicked my career off with.
However, little did we know, we were all about to go through something very tough, something a nurse NEVER thinks about going through.
Recently, we found out that our floor was temporarily shutting down and combining with a different floor due to low patient census. Sure, it sucked, we complained, but looking on the bright side at least we were all still together..
A month later, we found out our floor was PERMANENTLY shutting down.. Oh there were tears, there was fear, but at least we still had a job and at least we STILL had each other.
Earlier this week, there were several rumors surfacing of potential lay offs.
As of yesterday morning, Hahnemann University Hospital announced they were going to lay off 175 employees, 71 of them being NURSES. I just want to express NO ONE absolutely NO ONE joins the health care field fearing something like this. Typically, you join the healthcare field for STABILITY. Well, Hahnemann nurses are apart of a union. In a union, everything is based off of seniority. So the absolute newest nurses (less than a year working) were let go. I just graduated nursing school last September and started working at Hahnemann in November. So, that puts me at 5 months of RN experience. I myself, received the terrifying, devastating phone call yesterday morning that I was one of the many nurses being laid off.
Sooooo some immediate thoughts that were running through my mind… How am I going to pay off my student loans?! How am I going to support myself since I do not receive any severance pay due to not being at the hospital for at least a year?! How am I EVER going to find a home like Hahnemann with the most AMAZING co-workers?!
Obviously, it was natural to feel like that. Feel like your world is crashing down and there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING you can do to stop it. So, I had my day (rather a couple hours) to sulk and be sad but after an hour or two of being upset my fight or flight instinct kicked in and I immediately started sprucing up my resume, cover letter, and reached out to many recruiters/applied to several jobs. I will not let myself sink and I will not let myself fail. It may take time, and yes it is VERY scary, BUT I am a firm believer that EVERYTHING, absolutely everything happens for a reason and that there IS a plan for me. I am trying my best to stay positive in such a dark situation but all I can do is keep my head up and move forward. I am grateful for my time spent at Hahnemann and forever grateful to have kicked off my career with some of the most amazing people I have ever met. Also, I could not have gotten through the past week without the love and support of my family and Aidan. I am so lucky and I need to keep reminding myself that.
You all know I usually try to keep it pretty light hearted on here and just give you guys updates on sales and new recipes but I thought it was important to show you a little more real side to me and that everyone has their battles. However, you will get through it, and I will get through it. Thank you for following along ❤ I am forever grateful. I will keep you updated on my job hunt journey!

6 Camera Apps for Your Phone That Will Turn You into a World-Class Photographer

Wisdom and Government
from Christian Concern: Dr Joe Boot explores the dramatically different outcomes of wisdom and folly in the lives of individuals and governments. He highlights the biblical accounts of the lives of Solomon and Nabal as examples, respectively, of wisdom and folly. As Christians, Joe says, we are gifted with godly wisdom and we are called to engage with culture. He concludes by stating that “working with government and rulers is our act of worship, the end of which is the glory of...read more | http://anglicanmainstream.org/category/ethics/ | 2016-08-31T14:10:26 | CC-MAIN-2016-36 | 1471982290634.12 | [] | 51 |

>>IMAGE from my writing.
So, how can you manage time and add twenty-four hours to your writing week? By avoiding having children underfoot in the first place and sticking to a few simple ground rules of self-discipline.
- Awaken an hour before your children. This allows you to add seven hours right off the bat to your writing week. Now, this step will be easier if your children have a set wake and sleep schedule, so if they don’t now, make sure you set boundaries to help them establish a routine as soon as possible.
- Go to bed an hour after your children. This step adds another seven hours to your total, and by following two simple steps you’ve added fourteen hours to your writing week. However, as simple as this sounds it’s not easy. On those days when your children have been up all night with a fever, or you just want to hit the pillow as soon as they do, you need to stick to your goals and write.
- Make nap time writing time. If your children are as small as mine, nap time can last from one to two hours. With older kids who no longer nap, you can set aside a quiet time for television, a movie or some leisure activity which they can get involved in. This step adds an additional seven hours to your total for twenty-one hours of writing time a week. Even if you have older kids or kids who can only sit still for thirty minutes, establishing this routine will add a minimum of three and a half hours writing time to your schedule.
- Rely on friends and family. Whether your children are newborn or high school age they no doubt have another parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle or doting family friend who would love to spend time with them. Take advantage of this. Your loved ones want to see and know your children as individuals. Even if it’s just once a month for two hours you’ve added time to your writing week. If you’re very fortunate and your children like to spend time with grandma every Sunday afternoon, you can easily add seven or more hours to your writing time. This step can also go a long way toward getting family members and friends to accept that your writing is something you take seriously. Asking for their help will impact that writing is important to you, just as important as your family.
- Sign your children up for leisure and after-school activities. By allowing your children to do something they love, and can do in a supportive environment you free up time when they don’t need you right at their side. You will be helping your children explore their creativity and independence while getting some time for your own creative pursuits. Even if it means driving your daughter to volleyball practice 3 times a week and writing longhand in a notebook while you wait to take her back home, those are three more hours you can add to your writing week.
- When you start getting overloaded with tasks and feel like you need to expand best would be to hire some locals or hire a thesis writing service online so that you could produce the articles with same speed and keep your clients happy all the time.
By following these five disciplined steps, and fitting them into the needs of yourself and your family you can easily add twenty-four hours (or more) to your writing life each week. Think about it, a whole day to yourself, dedicated to writing.
Don’t waste that time making grocery lists, doing the laundry or the dishes, or other household chores. Put down the vacuum and pick up your pen, or sit behind your computer keyboard and know that through some simple time management strategies you have validated your worth as a writer and allowed yourself the time to create in an environment conducive to creativity, while still meeting the needs of your children and family.
Your family will love you for it. You will be much more able to handle the stresses of, and meet the demands of parenting and family life when your own needs as a writer have been met. By nurturing yourself, you will have spent precious time that allows you to support and nurture those who mean the most to you…your family. | http://737throttle.com/practical-writing-tips-for-busy-parents-who-freelance/ | 2018-10-15T11:39:49 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509170.2 | [

What do The Handmaid’s Tale, 1984, Rupi Kaur’s stories of survival, and The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck have in common? They are all some of 2017’s best-selling books, according to Barnes & Noble.
The bookseller has just released its top-selling fiction and nonfiction titles, and the lists read like, well, the perfect reading list for our verging-on-dystopian reality. Kaur’s Milk and Honey, a collection of poems about surviving trauma, topped the list of fiction, followed by Margaret Atwood’s dark tale of a future that is very present, Ruth Ware’s escapist tale The Woman in Cabin 10, and George Orwell’s sadly increasingly relevant 1984.
For nonfiction, it appears that the world has had it up to here, because the best-selling book was Mark Manson’s nihilistic The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck. Also making the top 10 were J.D. Vance’s analysis of the poor families that voted for Trump, Hillbilly Elegy, Elie Wiesel’s haunting Holocaust memoir, Night, and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s What Happened. Also making the list was the book that everyone likes to pretend they read, Neil deGrasse Tyson’s Astrophysics for People in a Hurry. Check out the full lists below:
Fiction:
- Milk and Honey, Rupi Kaur
- The Handmaid’s Tale, Margaret Atwood

Dylan's only moment of weakness was at the very end of our shopping. We had already picked out cookies from the bakery when an array of brightly colored cupcakes caught his eye. He stood innocently next to the cupcakes refusing to budge an inch. After much coaxing and a promise of a cookie in the car, we went to the check out.
As we were checking out, the cashier cooed at Micah and asked, "What a big baby!! What is he, 4-5 months old?" In any other scenario I might not mind the question but with Micah, when people ask how old he is and I tell them, they look confused and concerned about his size. So then to address their concerned look, I usually feel compelled to explain that he had a rough start with a 3.5 month hospital stay. This just concerns them more. So to avoid the whole concerned look, I said "Yes! He's 4-5 months old."
Am I horrible? I just hate explaining his situation to perfect strangers and I can't bare their looks of concern... So I lie.
Here is a picture of my perfect-sized 10 month old. He's SO happy! I just love his little personality!! | http://rayandlaurab.blogspot.com/2015/03/10-months-old.html | 2018-07-16T04:37:27 | CC-MAIN-2018-30 | 1531676589179.32 | [] | 97 |
Growers Edge Partners With Delta Institute on Financial Products to Rebuild Soil Health
Growers Edge Financial, Inc. (Growers Edge) has formed a partnership with Delta Institute to create financial products that help provide new capital opportunities for farmers wanting to rebuild soil capacity.
The firms said in a press release that maintaining soil health has been an insufficient priority with most of the world’s soil resources in fair, poor, or very poor condition, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agricultural Organization. Soil erodes 10 times faster than it is able to be naturally replenished in the United States – an estimated rate of nearly 1.7 billion tons of lost farmland annually, according to a Cornell University study.
Meanwhile, USDA estimates the total annual cost of erosion from agriculture in the United States at $44 billion – approximately $247 per acre of cropland and pasture. Globally,, regenerative food systems lead at Delta Institute, in a press release. , said officials for the firms in a press release. However, providing capital for farmers adopting soil health improvement agricultural practices is extremely challenging. Farmers must shoulder high upfront costs to transition to new farming practices, and then wait years before recouping costs and increasing profitability.
Using Growers Edge fintech analytics platform, the team will provide updated risk metrics and offer financial products and services to farms that invest in improving or rebuilding their soil, according to company officials.
“Traditional financial instruments fail to meet the needs of farmers who are attempting to break out of unprofitable management systems and embrace new ways to improve the resilience and profitability of their operation,” noted Joe Young, president and chief operating officer of Growers Edge, in a press release. “In partnership with Delta Institute, we will leverage our machine learning models and artificial intelligence platform to remove financial barriers and accelerate the proliferation of soil improvement initiatives.” | https://www.agriculture.com/news/business/growers-edge-partners-with-delta-institute-on-financial-products-to-rebuild-soil | 2020-10-20T07:40:28 | CC-MAIN-2020-45 | 1603107869933.16 | [] | 111 |

I plan to leave this game the same way that I came in loving every minute
During our team New Year’s Eve party last night, I couldn’t help reminiscing about the evening when I reckon my international career began. It was December 31, 1991, and I was sitting at the top of the old Sydney Park Royal Hotel working my way through a cooler of beer with Geoff Marsh and David Boon.
“Swampy” Marsh turned to me and said: “Mate, this is what playing for Australia is all about.” Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that 15 years later I would still be in the business. It has been a wonderful, rollercoaster ride. And now, as somebody used to sing, the end is near.

Low treatment costs attract foreign heart patients to India
28-September-2013
Low treatment costs and high levels of expertise have made India a leading destination for heart treatment for people from West Asian and African countries, doctors said.
According to doctors, the rates of heart treatment are 1/10th to 1/15th times lower as compared to the United States and Britain.
"India has now become a hub for heart treatment in Southeast Asia and people have been flying in from foreign countries and undergoing treatment for various cardiovascular diseases here," Subhash Chandra, associate director (Interventional Cardiology), Fortis Escorts Heart Institute, told IANS.
People visiting India for treatment are not only from neighbouring countries like Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Nepal but also from far off countries like Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, Kazakhstan, Iran, Iraq, Yemen and Oman.
Subhash Chandra said close to 500 patients had undergone treatment in Delhi alone in the last one year.
"Compared to global standards, the rates for any kind of cardiovascular surgery are very minuscule in our country," said Anil Bansal, chief cardiologist at Columbia Asia Hospital..
"I underwent an implant here in just Rs.7 lakhs, while I was quoted Rs. 30 lakhs for this in Europe," said Bardhan Sarkar from Bangladesh, who was treated by Bansal.
The most popular treatments availed of by people who come to Ind treatment costs are definitely one of the major factors attracting people to India, but the expertise and trust in the quality of treatment is another reason for the growth of foreign patients.
"All the latest high quality treatment is available in our country and with high expertise we have been able to establish trust among foreign patients," said Chandan Kedawat, senior consultant cardiovascular disease at Pushpawati Singhania Research Institute (PSRI).
Similarly, even for treatment of congenital heart disease (diseases affecting infants and children and present since birth) several hospitals are attracting a lot of patients from abroad.

Woods Eastland- The New 2018-2019 Delta Council President
By Becky Gillette • Photography by Timothy Ivy
Woods Eastland had an unusual childhood for a boy born in the Delta. For three months each year he worked on the farm that had been in the family since the 1880s. The other eight or so months he lived in Washington D.C., where his father, James Eastland, was a senator for thirty-six years.
Washington was a far different place in those days. Eastland recalls seeing Bobby Kennedy driving around town in a convertible with the top down.
“Back then there were not the security concerns you have now,” Eastland said. “After I became an adult I realized what a great opportunity it was during the 50s and 60s to live part-time in a very rural Mississippi Delta community and part-time in a very dynamic East Coast city.”
Eastland can recall when the route from Union Station to The White House was all three-story houses, including low-income housing. Now the area has been largely taken over with lobbying organizations.
“It just gives you an idea of how the federal government has grown and its control over huge amounts of money,” Eastland said. “These lobbying organizations go up to access that money.”
He recalls his father as a master politician, and attributes his father’s political strength to doing everything he could to help the little man.
After high school Eastland went to Vanderbilt University in Nashville and then on to law school at the University of Mississippi. After graduating from law school, he served two years in the Judge Advocate General’s Corps of the Navy before going to work as a lawyer in Jackson where he also taught real property law at the Jackson School of the Law.
“I did that for two years and then I realized I didn’t want to practice law the rest of my life,” Eastland said. “I came home and started farming full-time raising cotton, rice and soybeans. We had our first crop in 1974. During that period of time I became a director of Staplcotn and got elected chairman of the board. Then when the man who was the CEO of Staplcotn retired in 1986, the board asked me to come over and work full time as president and CEO. It was one of the hardest decisions to make because I love farming so much. But I decided to go over there and try it. If there was a harvest disaster, I would kick myself for not taking the opportunity to work for Staplcotn.”
It was a decision that served him well. “I always wanted a career in business,” he said. “Don’t ask me why. It is just what I wanted.”
Staplcotn based in Greenwood, is the oldest cotton marketing cooperative in the U.S. and currently has more than 13,000 farm accounts in an eleven-state area in the Mid-South and Southeast and a warehousing operation with fourteen locations in four states. Eastland liked the job so much that he ended up working as president and CEO for 24.5 years, retiring in September of 2010.
During those years he also became a director of the New York Cotton Exchange, which later merged with the coffee, sugar and cocoa future’s exchange and became the New York Board of Trade. For a brief period of time he was vice chairman of that board of directors. He resigned from the New York Board of Trade in 2005 because he was going to be president of National Cotton Council that year.
Meredith Allen, president and CEO of Staplcotn, said that Eastland set high standards for leadership at Staplcotn which they all continue to be inspired by to this day. “His influence on Staplcotn will continue to be a positive force for decades to come,” Allen said.
After retirement, Eastland has continued to be busy with his goals to make the Delta a better place. He continued to serve at Staplcotn as chairman of the board until 2013. He is on the board of directors of the B.B. King Museum in Indianola and on the board of directors for the Indianola Promise Community whose goal is to improve academic performance in school, which is a predictor of quality of life for everybody in the community. He is also on the board of the Delta Health Alliance, the parent company of the Indianola Promise Community, which works to improve education achievement and the health of the community.
“I don’t think I retired,” Eastland said. “I just switched jobs. I went from a job that paid well to several jobs that don’t pay at all. But that is what you are supposed to do.”
His friend David Fisher admires what Eastland does not just on non-profit boards, but for individuals.
“He will go the extra mile caring for someone who is in need or a newcomer,” Fisher said. “He makes it a point to get to know them and help them. He is committed to improving the Delta through relationships. He and his wife are always involved in something.”
Eastland is looking forward to his role as incoming president of Delta Council during a transitional year with long time executive vice president Chip Morgan retiring.
“He is going to be replaced by Frank Howell, who has been on the staff a long time,” Eastland said. “It should be a seamless transition. Delta Council is known in Washington not just for being one of the major spokesmen for production ag, but for the work it does to improve the quality of life in the Delta.”
This year Congress will be working on a new farm bill. So, Delta Council will, as usual, be working to provide a lot of input. There were some concerns about how cotton fared under the current farm bill, but Eastland said the framework that was changed this year in regards to cotton is workable.
“Delta Council’s work on the farm bill has always been to try to maintain some kind safety net for farmers with tremendously bad weather or prices,” he said. “And, in recent years, Delta Council has put increasing focus on the conservation and the environmental sides of agriculture.
Significant challenges lie ahead.
“Longer term for agriculture, our great concern is for our underwater aquifers,” Eastland said. “To be successful in production agriculture, you must have irrigation. In the Delta we are using water faster than it can be replaced. That is a big issue in the Delta that every person in the Delta Council is concerned about. If you lose irrigation value, land values go down. Dramatic change never happens until there is a perceived crisis, but I’m starting to think now we are beginning to perceive a crisis.”
Another long-term challenge is depopulation of the Delta.
“That is very characteristic of just about all the agricultural parts of rural America,” Eastland said. “It is important that we maintain the vitality of the Delta because it is one of the five great agricultural regions in the country. The human race depends on the production of food and fiber from the Delta.”
Since retiring, Eastland has taken time to get to know his hometown of Indianola. Before retiring from Staplcotn, about the only time he was there was to sleep.
“I wanted to get to know the people in the town and see how the town ticked,” he said. “It has been a broadening experience.”
Eastland, who is a duck hunter and Ole Miss sports fan, has been married to Lynn Wood from Hollandale since 1974 and they have two children, Lane Eastland McCluer and Brad Eastland. They also have three grandchildren. Eastland and his wife are members of St Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Indianola, where he is a licensed Layreader.
Although it is leased out, Eastland still enjoys visiting the farm several times a week. DBJ
“That land has been in our family since the 1880s, so it becomes part of your psyche,” Eastland said. | http://deltabusinessjournal.com/tag/the-new-2018%C2%AD-2019-delta-council-president/ | 2018-09-18T18:07:20 | CC-MAIN-2018-39 | 1537267155634.45 | [] | 44 |
I actually can't remember if I've ever done potato stamps, although I must have because I already knew what they were. I feel kind of bad cutting up a nice redskin potato for this, but that's what we have, and this one was starting to grow out of the eyes a little bit...
It's a kid's craft, and that got me thinking of kid's books, so this project is based off one of the Lyle the Crocodile books. Specifically 'Lyle and the Birthday Party'. I no longer own a copy of this book, which is kind of a shame, because this and 'Hop on Pop' were the first books I ever learned to read. I never felt the latter counted for much, because the words were too small. I also recall not being believed when I said I could read the book; my parents felt I'd simply had it read to me enough times that I had it memorized. They were wrong, though, because what excited me enough to tell them was the realization that I didn't just know what it said, but that most of the words on the page actually made sense.
It was like I'd unlocked some magical door, and I was ecstatic.
Why the story was one of my favorites, I'm really not sure. This was actually the only Lyle the crocodile book I remember, although we must have read the others, and I'm not quite sure if I owned it or just checked it out from the library repeatedly. My father working there gave me ready access, so I know there were books I had him bring me from work more than once.
This particular book is, in essence, about dealing with jealousy. Specifically Lyle the crocodile is jealous of the little boy of the family because it's his birthday. I imagine that's the kind of thing that happens a lot with siblings, but I was an only child so I'm not sure how that spoke to me.
I did love birthday parties, though, and thought the most exciting thing about my own birthday was that it's just a week before Halloween. I'm not so big on birthdays, anymore, but I still think Halloween is the best holiday there is.
Maybe some year I should dress up as a crocodile. | http://illuminacy365.blogspot.com/2011/03/day-16-potato-stamp.html | 2018-07-15T21:07:01 | CC-MAIN-2018-30 | 1531676588972.37 | [] | 34 |

>The Perfect Predator
Latest Book
Steffanie A. Strathdee and Thomas Patterson. Epidemiologist Steffanie Strathdee and her husband, psychologist Tom Patterson, were vacationing in Egypt when Tom came down with a stomach bug. What seemed like a case of food poisoning quickly turned to a critical fight for his life against one of the most dangerous, antibiotic- resistant bacteria in the world. Steffanie combed through research old and new and came across phage therapy, treatment that had fallen out of favor 100 years ago after antibiotics became mainstream. The right phage (virus), aka “the perfect predator,” can kill even the most lethal bacteria. She appealed to phage researchers all over the world for help to save Tom. In doing so the overlooked phage therapy is again attracting the attention of scientists seeking answers to the increasing and deadly antimicrobial resistance - AMR.

>The evolving threat of antimicrobial resistance - Options for action...
The book examines the experiences with interventions which address the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance, describes the lessons learnt along the way and highlights the gaps still remaining. It draws attention to areas where knowledge is lacking and where urgent action is still needed. While much of what is summarized in this publication is well known to the scientific community, yet awareness at the political level is essential, but often lacking. A specific objective is therefore to encourage policy-makers and the global community to commit to intensified action against AMR.

>The Great Influenza...
The epic story of the deadliest plague in history by John M. Barry. H5N1 (bird flu virus) is now; H1N1 was 1918. ......"the virus that created its own killing fields." J.M. Barry
John M. Barry. In 2004, the National Academies of Science asked him to give the keynote speech at its first international scientific meeting on pandemic influenza, he was the only non-scientist on a federal government Infectious Disease Board of Experts, and he was a member of the original team which developed plans for mitigating a pandemic by using "non-pharmaceutical interventions"-- i.e., public health measures to take before a vaccine becomes available. Both the Bush and Obama administrations have sought his advice on influenza preparedness and response, and he continues his activity in this area.
>Liaisons of Life: From Hornworts to Hippos How the unassuming Microbe has driven Evolution....
Award-winning science writer and biologist, Tom Wakeford, describes how microbes –by forming mutually beneficial relationships with nearly every creature, be it alga with animals or zooplankton with zebrafish, have in fact been innovative players in the evolutionary process. He presents a fascinating exploration of symbiosis at the microscopic level and its radical extension of Darwinism.
>Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic by David Quammen....
The emergence of strange new diseases is a frightening problem that seems to be getting worse. In this age of speedy travel, it threatens a worldwide pandemic. News reports of Ebola, SARS, AIDS, and something called Hendra killing horses and people in Australia overlook the fact that such phenomena are part of a single pattern. The microbes that transmit these diseases share one thing: they originate in wild animals and pass to humans by a process called spillover. David Quammen tracks this subject around the world.

>Revenge of the Microbes: How Bacterial Resistance Is Undermining the Antibiotic Miracle...
Dr Abigail Salyers and Dr Dixie D Whitt explain the basics of antibacterial resistance to non-scientists, so that they will understand why one should not take penicillin for the flu, for instance, or insist upon antibacterial soaps. Since the future of antibiotics depends on millions of individuals making informed decisions about antibiotic use, this book could not be more needed. The authors do an excellent job discussing the social and economic reasons why antibiotics are used in the way they are today, even though we know that such usage will likely lead to antibiotics' early obsolescence.
<The Antibiotic Paradox: How the Misuse of Antibiotics Destroys their Curative Powers.....
>Beyond Antibiotics: Strategies for Living in World of Emerging Infections and Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria. North Atlantic Books..... Dr Michael Schmidt proposes we focus on strengthening ourselves by thinking of our bodies as a “human-microbe hybrid.” This requires taking action to raise our defences, while preserving the integrity of the microbial elements that live on and within us. Drawing on the latest research from several scientific fields, Schmidt presents a strategy of medicine that can be used to build and balance our system of immune defence and repair. He offers a set of general recommendations that can easily be used to tailor programs to individuals seeking to support health maintenance, prevent illness, fight active acute or chronic infections, and foster faster recovery from
Infections.
> Rising Plague: The Global Threat from Deadly bacteria and our Dwindling Arsenal to Fight Them....
Antibiotic resistant microbes infect more than 2 million Americans and kill over 100,000 each year. Throughout the world, many more people are dying from these infections. Astoundingly, as antibiotic resistant infections are skyrocketing in incidence, creating a critical need for new antibiotic, research and development of new antibiotics has ground to a halt! Dr Spellberg, an infectious diseases specialist and a member of an American national task force member charged with attacking antibiotic resistant infections, tells the story of this potentially grave public health crisis. He explains the true causes of antibiotic resistance and of the virtual collapse of antibiotic research and development and advocates ways to reverse this dire trend and instead bolster the production of desperately needed new and effective antibiotics and warns against complacency induced by the decades-old assumption that some miracle drug will always be available to ensure the continuation of our "antibiotic era." If we do nothing, we run the risk of inviting a bleak future when infectious diseases will once again reign supreme.
>The Coming Plague: Newly Emerging Diseases in a World Out of Balance....
Reed Business Information, Inc.
Laurie Garrett is the only writer ever to have been awarded all three of the Big "Ps" of journalism: the Peabody, the Polk, and the Pulitzer. She writes ‘Preparedness demands understanding’ and examines the patterns lying beneath the new diseases and old resurgent ones. As the human population explodes, ecologies collapse and simplify, and disease organisms move into the gaps. As globalization continues, diseases can move from one country to another as fast as an airplane can fly. Epidemics grow when a disease outbreak is amplified--by contaminated water supplies, by shared needles, by recirculated air, by prostitution. It is within our power to control the amplifiers of disease; it's a matter of money, people, and political will.

Authored by two leading investigators, Karl S Drica and David S Perlin, explain what can be done to minimize risks to public health, and to preserve and extend the effectiveness of existing and new antibiotics.
>The Antibiotic Alternative: The Natural Guide to Fighting Infection and Maintaining a Healthy Immune System. Healing Arts Press....
When antibiotics were discovered they were hailed as the magic bullet that would put an end to the threat of infectious disease. But we now face an alarming increase in cases of bacterial infections that will not respond to antibiotics. Biochemist Dr Jones explains how overreliance on antibiotics is dangerous because bacteria have found ways to outsmart them, producing resistant strains that prove harder and harder to control. The use of antibiotics in agricultural feeds and widespread over-prescription of antibiotics has deepened the threat of resistant bacteria to potentially epidemic proportions. Even when appropriately prescribed, antibiotics weaken the immune system by altering the body’s natural bacterial balance. While antibiotics have their place in treating acute life-threatening conditions, The Antibiotic Alternative shows how the best defence against infectious disease is to strengthen your own immune system.
>Betrayal of Trust: The Collapse of Global Public Health...
Laurie Garrett. Reading most public health books is merely sad; reading Laurie Garrett’s ‘Betrayal of Trust’, however, is absolutely terrifying. This book is divided into five chapters, any one of which is the stuff of nightmares. All concern “the collapse of global public health,” as the subtitle reads. Garrett's tone is journalistic, even pugilistic, as she relates in each chapter another instance of public health systems gone to pot. Google Books

haven’t visited their used bookstores, by all means drop in.
Here’s their story:
A new community
The smell hits you first. That comfortably musty scent of used books with a top note of lumber — from the rustic, floor-to-ceiling shelves.
For John and Dee Dillman, who own two Kaboom bookstores in the Heights,. You might meet a neighborhood kid, knit cap pulled tight over dyed blue hair. You might meet a woman who renovates historic homes. You might run into the Dillmans’ landlord, who dropped by recently for a Willa Cather title. 2-and-a-half. “It’s like fishing. You’ve just got to hunker down and watch what happens.”
Recently, they got their first house key from a neighborhood mom.
A good sign.
Oddly, 733 Studewood is very near (if not the same location) the building which housed a used bookstore owned by James McMurtry in the late ’80s before he decided he’d rather have an entire town full of used bookstores.
Wasn’t deliberate in light of the 5th anniversary, but I finally got around to reading James Lee Burke’s “The Tin Roof Blowdown.” As always with Burke, a fantastic read and a great, if sad, look at the physical and spiritual chaos that resulted from Katrina.
KABOOM! is located between my home and Jimmie’s Ice House, which is in easy bicycle range, and both are very easy to peddle to. P.S. Wasn’t it Larry (not James) who owned the book store (where the dog-grooming place is now)?
Yep, Larry and pedal are correct.
This is by far the best coziest bookstore ever
Thanks for bringing to my attention. I’d never heard about the store.
Yup, my goof. Must have that great profile of James McMurtry in the current issue of Garden & Gun (my favorite magizine – think of a literate Southern Living with an attitude problem) that got me confused.
Speaking of confused, are those great Hispanic snow-cone vendors on the yellow two-wheels-in-front trikes considered pedalers or peddlers? | http://blog.chron.com/bookish/2010/08/kaboom-goodbye-new-orleans-hello-houston/ | 2013-05-18T15:01:02 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382450 | [] | 34 |

A leading bond rating agency has upgraded its outlook of Baltimore's financial position after the city's second straight budget surplus, Mayor Martin O'Malley's office confirmed yesterday.
Standard & Poor's upgraded its outlook to "positive" from "stable," a change that should make borrowing money easier and less expensive for City Hall. The agency also reaffirmed the city's A-plus bond rating.
"Working together with the City Council over the last few years we've had to make some really difficult decisions," said O'Malley spokeswoman Raquel Guillory.

Sierra Club Jumps Into Gubernatorial Race
Trenton, NJ - The Sierra Club announced today that it has distributed issue
questionnaires to gubernatorial candidates, kicking off its endorsement
process.
The club typically sends out its questionnaires to major party candidates
only, but this year it has also included Chris Daggett, former Commissioner
of the NJ Department of Environmental Protection, because of his familiarity
with many environmental issues.
"We want to make sure that the environment is going to be a major issue in
this year's gubernatorial campaign and we plan to hold the candidates
accountable," said Jeff Tittel, NJ Sierra Club Director. "Four years ago,
the Sierra Club made an early endorsement. This time we plan to be more
deliberative and do a lot more vetting."
The questionnaire focuses on ways to implement the Global Warming Response
Act, including implementing green building laws, establishing appliance
standards, enacting a trip reduction program, and designating secure funds
for open space.
"While it's still way too early in the campaign for us to know who we might
end up supporting, we're nevertheless concerned that up to this point most
gubernatorial candidates have not yet focused on environmental issues," said
Richard Isaac, the Chapter's Political Chair. "At this point, we welcome the
opportunity to learn more about all the candidates' positions on
environmental issues, and hope that beginning our endorsement process now
will help all the candidates better appreciate our issues."
"Here in New Jersey, just about all the candidates like to say they care
about the environment, but often talk in generalities," Isaac said. "While
our questionnaire allows for candidates to offer their own suggestions, it
is also quite specific about particular issues so that we can see - and
share with the public - if the candidates are really serious about
protecting our water supply, air quality, and remaining natural areas. We
look forward to starting the endorsement interview process, campaigning for,
and helping to elect our endorsed candidate."
Once the questionnaires are returned by the candidates, the Sierra Club will
conduct interviews. An endorsement will follow the interviews. To get the
green housekeeping seal of approval, the candidate needs a two-thirds
majority vote among the club's Executive Committee and Political Committee.
The Sierra Club is the nation's oldest and largest environmental group with
more than 750,000 members, about 23,000 of them within New Jersey.

Srinagar, June 26, 2015 (PPI-OT): In occupied Kashmir, several people were injured when Indian police used brute force against peaceful protesters in Srinagar, today. After Friday prayers people took to the streets in Nowhatta and other areas of Srinagar and staged forceful anti-India demonstrations. They raised slogans in favour of freedom and against India. Indian police personnel resorted to heavy lathi-charge and excessive teargas shelling to disperse the protesters.
Several people sustained injuries in the police action. The Chairman of All Parties Hurriyet Conference, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, in a statement strongly denounced the brutal use of force on the people who were offering prayers in the premises of Jamia Masjid in Srinagar. The Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front leader, Bashir Ahmed Butt, led an anti-India demonstration in Yaripora area of Kulgam. People on the occasion raised high-pitched anti-India and pro-freedom slogans.
Meanwhile, senior Hurriyet leader, Shabbir Ahmed Shah, in a statement in Srinagar welcomed the assertion of Pakistani Mission in the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva that Jammu and Kashmir was not a part of India but was a disputed territory pending resolution for the past several decades. Hurriyet leaders including Javaid Ahmed Mir and Shabbir Ahmed Dar addressing gatherings in different areas said that India would never succeed to suppress the Kashmiris’ ongoing liberation movement through military might.
Hurriyet leaders, Nayeem Ahmad Khan and Farida Behanji as well as the High Court Bar Association and the Jamaat-e-Islami of the occupied territory in their statements in Srinagar strongly denounced the arrest of the students of Kashmir University by Indian police. The students of Islamia University staged demonstrations to demand release of the arrested students of Kashmir University. The occupation authorities continued to place the veteran Hurriyet leader, Syed Ali Gilani, under house arrest in Srinagar, today. He was not even allowed to offer Juma prayers. The veteran leader is under house detention for
In Geneva, Kashmiri representative, Altaf Hussain Wani, taking part in general debate under agenda item 5 in the 29th Session of UN Human Rights Council demanded of India to facilitate the visits of UN Special Rapporteur on Torture and Working group on Enforced Disappearances to the occupied territory and ratify without reservations the Convention on Enforced Disappearance and Torture. Speakers at a seminar in Luton, UK, said that durable peace in South Asia was not possible without settlement of the Kashmir dispute. The speakers included Senator Abdul Qayoom, Lord Qurban Hussain, Professor Nazir Ahmed Shawl and Professor Zafar Khan.

Are The PizzaGate Pimps For
The Global Elite Up To Snuff?
By Yoichi Shimatsu
A Rense Exlclusive
12-11-16
In Part 2 of an ongoing series on Pizzagate, this investigation into the shadowy underworld of the political elite is making headway, despite the threat from a pedophile-infested Congress. The proposed hearings on alleged “fake news” is a blatant attempt to intimidate citizen sleuths and bloggers from digging out more toys for boys from their closet. Undeterred by menacing noises from politicians and intelligence agencies, online researchers are grimly digging ever-deeper into organized pedophilia. Knowing full well that it’s a shortened lame duck session, the politicians are just bluffing.
Before firing up the brick oven, anyone unfamiliar with the ingredients for an artisanal pizza can learn the lexicon from the researchers at 4chan and VOAT, who’ve cross-checked all references for accuracy. Here’s the Pizzagate Code:
- hotdog = boy
- pizza = girl
- cheese = little girl
- pasta = little boy
- map = semen
- dominoes = domination
- pillows = drugs
- chicken = a well-worn gay term meaning a youth, often a sex worker on the street
- to that vetted list, one could add sauce, apparently the code word for group sex.
Now to outline this follow-up on issues raised in Part 1:
- First, we probe recent revelations about Saudi ownership of the Chevy Chase tract under Comet Ping Pong pizza and its implications that the Podestas and Alefantes-Brock have been running a chain of safe houses used as child-sex brothels for foreign dignitaries. An official cover-up of Pizzagate supported by NATO member-nations’ intelligence services indicates that a sex-for-secrets operation was being run under a clandestine American-Israeli spying and blackmail operation.
- Next we revisit Rehoboth Beach, aka the Summer Capital for the Washington elite. The Delaware resort was a favorite hangout of that whack job David Brock, LGBT uberlord Barney Frank and gay-marriage propagandist Peter Rosenstein. In that same time-frame, Sussex County was also the spider nest of pediatrician Earl Bradley, who was convicted in 2010 of more than 100 counts of child molestation and rape of girls as young as 3 months old. The prosecutor in that case was Delaware attorney general Beau Biden, son of the Vice President, who suffered a medically improbable brain-tumor relapse in that same year. The synchronicity raises the troubling question: Was the younger Biden, a potential contender for the presidency, targeted for assassination by the pedophile mafia? If Brock feels paranoid, it’s for good reason since there may well be justifiable grounds for payback.
- Then, after his binge of pizza and pasta, Tony Podesta was served just desserts by his lovely wife Heather Podesta nee Miller who divorced him in 2014 and took the Kalorama 8-bedroom heated-pool mansion. No point crying over spilt map, paesano, since there’s still the arts center down in the tunnel of the old Red Line under Connecticut Avenue NW, right near Comet Pizza.You know the place. Don’t worry, Antonio, the pajama parties will be back when Barry Soetaro moves into his new mansion, and his will be bigger than yours, just a couple of blocks away in Kalorama right near James Alefantes’s (J’aime les enfantes) digs.
- The last section ties up loose ends, including the question of whether Alefantes is an actual surname as opposed to ”J’aime les enfants” (I love children, in French); and a peek into the strange family background of spirit-cooking artist Marina Abramovic.
DOJ cover for Saudi assets
The most perceptive insights on VOAT are focused on Arab-Saudi ownership of the entire city block underneath Comet Pizza and a nearby pizzeria called Besta (not Basta, the Italian word for enough or too much), operated by Abdul Hamade (Abdel Rahmann Hammad), who is also owner of the Boli pizza chain) and Samir Sbitan. Besta, as in bestiality, has for its logo the “Boy Lovers” symbol, a triangular spiral. Are there any sheep out back?
The entire lot under Besta and Comet is owned, on paper at least, by attorney Andrew J. Kline, a graduate of the Kennedy School at Harvard. To disguise his government work at the Department of Justice, Kline hides behind a front business, the “Veritas” law office located on Dupont Circle and with a field office in Chevy Chase, near Comet Pizza. Further pursuit by online researchers showed the same curly-haired lawyer Kline to be a Bill Clinton appointee in the Department of Justice (DOJ) Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit, when Janet Reno was Attorney General.
The junior partner at Veritas is Stephen J. Whelan, who worked previously at Metro (the D.C. Transport Agency), an interesting coincidence with the controversy over the old Red Line Tunnel under Connecticut Avenue, mentioned in a John Podesta email.
Kline’s employment with Justice causes some befuddlement among Pizzagate hunters, as it raises the question of whether Comet Pizza is an FBI honey trap to nab international child-smugglers. My educated guess is no, based on my work in an undercover journalistic probe into the secret activities of the human-trafficking bureau at Justice and the State Department.
Despite its pretense of stopping people smugglers, the human trafficking program does the exact opposite, organizing and facilitating the transport of, say, North Koreans and Chinese Uyghurs into Thailand and onto the US territory of Saipan. U.S. consular officers provide money and fake passports to “snakeheads” from China and, more recently, Turkish traffickers who transported Mideast and African migrants by boat to Greece and onto Germany since the summer of 2015. The human trafficking officers aid and abet the flow of illegals, and often prevent immigration and Border Patrol from detaining their live cargo.
Certainly, the Podesta brothers would not be assigned to a honey trap, as that would compromise their intelligence roles. The large property in Chevy Chase has to be part of a political bribery deal between the Arabs and the Clintons, now being protected by the Obama administration.
IOUs from the UAE
It is a common practice for foreign-owned properties to be administered by a proxy registered “owner”, like Kline, on behalf of a foreign company like Dhs.CON.N.E.B. Let’s examine this curious company name, with a little help from my past experience in the Gulf States. First, Dhs in this case does not refer to Department of Homeland Security. It stands for Dirhams, the currency of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). CON is short for Construction and N.E.B. stands for National Engineering Bureau LLC (limited liability company).
This Dubai-owned property group, likely to be financed by the Saudis, has owned the lot for longer than a decade. The primary motive for the property does not appear to be rental income but instead is a vehicle to provide funds to the Clintons. The blog Lux E Tenebris has been so kind as to provide a map of the Dubai-owned lot on either side of Connecticut Avenue.
The storefronts are occupied by Comet Pizza; Bucks Fishing and Camping restaurant (also owned by Alefantes); Besta Pizza run by Arabs; Politics and Prose bookstore owned by Lissa Muscatine, a senior speechwriter for then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and her husband Bradley Graham with The Washington Post. Across the street is Beyond Borders, a Clinton Foundation-funded NGO involved with promoting the European refugee crisis; and Terasol Bistro, whose website is decorated with the pedophile trapped heart symbol.
By now, with so many facts vetted and verified, Pizzagate is clearly not fake news, Congressmen, and you’re going to have to face the facts and nothing but the facts.
High-class Brothels for Small Vices
Next question: What do the rich Arab investors get in return? As this question spun around in my brain, the image that popped up out of the memory banks was of a naked prostitute standing inside an upright steel coffin, that image being from the cover of of the second edition of Len Deighton’s 1967 potboiler “An Expensive Place to Die”. Here’s the jacket blurb:
Daft.
?”
Fact being stranger than fiction is something I can attest to after 30 years of investigative journalism. What if your wealthy and powerful target has already tried everything, including Vegas hookers, Dallas lap dancers, Asian massage, Castro Street bath houses, Thai transvestites and foxy Euros on Avenue Foch, what else is new? What about sex with a 10-month-old blonde German girl, like the one advertised by Alefantes? Or a boisterous white American boy of 7 who’s just now learning about the wonders of erectile tissue? In a decadent world of cosmetic surgery and boob jobs, innocent children are caviar to the connoisseur.
For the jaded sheikh or defense minister, who’s seen and done everything, it’s no great thrill to watch naked lads sliding down the handrail of a staircase, a scene of degraded commercialized sex in the male brothel scene from Marcel Proust’s Remembrance of Things Past. Instead of overt sexuality, what if your guests were invited to an informal pizza dinner at your home and discovered “the neighbor’s kids” skinny dipping in the heated pool? What more could you offer as a token of friendship than an invitation to a master bedroom with its own jacuzzi for each of the guests to share with a little companion?
Welcome to the family, make yourself at home. Help yourself to wine and the pantry and the kids. Oh, phone. Darn, there’s noise from the human rights crowd about Yemen, but another few million on top of the F-18 contract should be enough to handle Congress. We’ll deal with it in the morning. Ain’t she as cute as a doll? Wish I had a daughter like that. Enjoy the late night show, buddy.
Would the foreign dignitaries spot the hidden camera and microphone? Or are they too tantalized to notice? And that’s why intelligence services are pressing Congress crack down on fake news to protect their dirty little secret. Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton agitates for children’s rights. It would be a comedy of hypocrisy if little kids were not being traumatized and dumped into landfills.?
Beau Didn’t Jest
Pedophile influence and gay silence were so pervasive along the Eastern Shore that Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden refused to run as a shoo-in candidate in the by-election for his father’s vacated senatorial seat in order to prosecute Earl Bradley. The younger Biden, who in childhood was injured in the head-on car collision that killed his mother and older sister, understood that life is serious and not some meaningless game. He could not watch further harm done to innocent children. His undivided dedication, knowing the dark forces he was up against, resulted in 14 life sentences for the child rapist.
Before the verdict, however, Beau Biden suffered an unexpected relapse following earlier surgery for a brain lesion. He was then given massive radiation “therapy” at Bethesda hospital, and died of complications from a brain tumor in 2015. Current medical opinion indicates that brain tumors usually do not kill the patient if treated in time, and he was under close observation by his doctor. Beau Biden should still be alive and well. Something was rotten in Delaware.
Today, in hindsight after the Pizzagate scandal, the question needs to be raised. Was Beau Biden, with his clear path to the presidency, the target of a sophisticated medical assassination? According to columnist Maureen Dowd, Beau on his deathbed pleaded with his father to run for the nomination to prevent the corrupt Clintons from coming back to power.
Over the past year, the murder threats against candidate Donald Trump along with the suspicious deaths of Seth Rich, Shawn Lucas, Joe Montano, Victor Thorn and John Ashe in campaign 2016, raises the matter of who’s running the assassination operation? To that query one might add: how does a paranoiac lunatic with armed bodyguards like David Brock, who was committed to a psychiatric ward in 2001, command so much donor money and political influence? Though not Jewish by birth, he was adopted into a Jewish family, which accounts for his identity crisis. Why should Washington be so afraid of him just because he stares like Charlie Manson?
Fat Tony Craves Pizza
Tony Podesta must prefer pizza over his wife’s home cooking. His charming spouse filed divorce papers in 2014 without uttering a single public comment on her reasons for separation. Why would a woman leave one of the most successful men in Washington politics, who enjoys making meals for friends and actually has any interest in art? Maybe his taste for pasta in art, those paintings of young studs, might have had something to do with her decision.
By any standard, Heather Miller ex-Podesta is an attractive woman and obviously witty and intelligent. But instead of minding the homefront, Tony’s been off with his new flame, an eccentric older woman named Marina Abramovic, also a great cook at least in spirit. Her blood pudding is legendary by now.
Spirit Cookery with a Crock Pot
The one possibly fake news item, from the vast online propaganda factory in Macedonia as uncovered by unnamed “intelligence sources”, is a post in Serbian language about Abramovic’s distinguished maternal grandfather Varnana Abramovic. Marina’s mother is Rosic (here is that Rosy Cross reference), the child of Varnana, who was the Orthodox Church Patriarch of Serbia 1930-37. He reported made pro-Nazi comments then, but apparently did not join the German invasion of 1941. Petar was his name at birth in August 1889, when the Balkans were still part of the Ottoman Empire.
The post at VOAT by “BrickInTheWall” ran an online translation of “Residents of Pljevljima”, copied here with grammar corrections: “Slight and short with a high-pitched voice, Varnava, it was rumored, liked to wear women's clothing, throw wild parties in the monastery, and take boys to his bed. . . . The head chaplain of the Tsar’s Navy, Father Gyorgy Shavelsky, even claimed Varnava had sexually abused and then murdered a beautiful young altar boy at Kolomna. The body was later discovered lodged under the waterwheel of a mill.” The flour from that mill must have been quite suitable for spirit baking.
The account grows stranger. “Varnava and Rasputin met in one of the capital's (Moscow) salons, and though they did not become friends, the two men of similar backgrounds apparently realized they could be of use to each other: Rasputin could help advance Varnava's career, while Varnava could defend Rasputin against attacks from within the ranks of the church.”
The account has the ring of authenticity, although its factual correctness cannot be verified short of flying to Belgrade to consult a historian, unless of course you’re Snopes, the Ministry of Truth’s doublespeak experts at Bureau 1984. Although Serbia is bordered by the Macedonia of cyber-disinfo, it makes zero sense for Vladimir Putin to waste human resources on anything this arcane and obscure. Spirit cooking is not at the top of the Russian agenda, and who really cares about Grandpa Varnana? . . .
Alefantes the Greek
There’s been suggestions that James Alefantes is a pseudonym based on the French “J’aime les enfantes” (I love children). The phrase was printed on a T-shirt he wore in a photo taken inside Comet. That remarkable coincidence was first noticed by Alefantes himself, and he wore it proudly. If Hillary had been elected, Pedophile Pride Day might have someday become a national holiday.
On his paternal side, James Alefantes aka Jimmy Comet is a fourth-generation Greek-American (his mother has an Irish surname) whose great-grandfather Achilles Raptotasios was born in Greece in 1880 and immigrated to American after the 1910 census and before the birth of a son in January 1915.
In 2012, GQ named Alefantes as the 49th most powerful man in Washington D.C., impressive for a pizza tosser, especially when considering there are 80 male Senators and 404 Congressmen. What’s he got that they don’t?
Here’s GQ rationale: "restaurateur and bon vivant" Alefantes is No.49 thanks to the "liberal twenty-somethings in khakis" who eat at Comet Ping Pong and the "more established progressives" who flock to Buck’s Fishing & Camping. "If you don't know him, you aren't wearing your scarf right.”
Remember, John, a handkerchief with a map won’t get you better service from waiters at the Comet, even if it’s folded neatly into your back pocket. If you fail to stylishly loop your Dolce & Gabbana cashmere scarf or a sporty Merino from Banana Republic, Jimmy Comet is going to call up one of his boys to whip you with a wet noodle before you’re allowed to order hotdogs for your Arab guests. Bon Apetit!

– Kathleen MT
Working with Ciara was truly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! I was suffering from weight gain, burn out, exhaustion, and anxiety.
Since working with her my whole outlook on health, nutrition and self-care has changed. She not only helps you through each challenge but she teaches and arms you with the tools you need to make positive healthy life changes that are sustainable. She is extremely committed to her clients, always available for advice and is extremely knowledgable in her craft.
For the first time in years, I feel healthy, have energy and feel comfortable in my skin! Thank you Ciara!”
#TRUTH
Balancing your hormones so you can feel fabulous, isn’t just about food, supplements and lifestyle.
It’s about learning to manage your mind
It’s about getting to the root cause of self-sabotage
It’s about letting go of your desire to be perfect
Cravings- blood sugar imbalance, the state of your microbiome as well as lifestyle factors like sleep have an impact on our hormones and therefore cravings.
BUT here’s the thing- I’ve found over the years that even when these things are accounted for, many women still find themselves struggling with an addiction to comfort food.
Why?
Pleasure! If you’re not experiencing pleasure and “sweetness” in your everyday life – you will continue to use food as your “drug of choice”.
It’s not all about the food- and you know this.
So the answer isn’t a new diet or restricting and punishing yourself more
You’ve tried that, how did it work out?
In my practice over the last fourteen years, I’ve shifted the direction of my coaching away from *just* food and towards mindset and inner healing.
This is when clients started to transform their thinking and their life.
This is when they gave up being a victim and took responsibility for their life so they could harness the power of change.
This is when they started to show up for themselves and keep their promises
Like Tracy and Kathleen!
– Tracy Clemens
I am absolutely thrilled with Ciara’s! I’ve been raving about the program to my friends and family, and can’t say enough good things!”
What to eat is only part of the puzzle.
A knowledge gap isn’t what holds you back.
The struggle is that “knowing” what to do
DOES NOT = DOING!
This is precisely why I built this program with accountability and personalization!
It’s also why the first module is my transformational mindset program:
GET UNSTUCK
This is not just any hormone program- this is about reclaiming your health, your power and the essence of who you are.
It’s about saying NO to just surviving!
It’s about following your desires and saying HELL YES to feeling amazing and having a healthy relationship with your body.
I worked with Ciara to help me regulate my hormones and get my nutrition on track and she was brilliant!
With her program and coaching, I was able to cut out 90% of my hormonal issues (all naturally) and now feel better than I ever have! No more PMS, sleeping better, no afternoon crashes, and I’m much more focused and happier.
I highly recommend working with her.
– Renee Warren

Seek out more pleasure in your day to day life!
Feel fully expressed in all your relationships.

Learn how to get into your body and RECEIVE!
Give up over functioning in your life and let go of things out of your control.
Call you out on your BS and hold you to the fire when you need it through our weekly Facebook Live Q+A.
– Silvia Stringhini
I have been working with Ciara since late spring 2019 with amazing results. I first reached out as I had been struggling with regaining my pre-babies weight. As a side note, after stopping breastfeeding I had suffered from hormonal imbalance and horrible migraines for up to 15 days a month.
To my biggest surprise, Ciara and her team have helped me not only to lose these extra kgs but also to dramatically reduce my migraine episodes from 15 to 2 days a month. Ciara has also been an extraordinary coach in an extremely stressful period of my life, and our work is now more focused on building my self-esteem, gain confidence and speak up for myself. I cannot but strongly recommend her!

Frequently Asked Questions
When does it start?
Immediately!
As soon as you purchase this program you will get access to our private group which holds the content for you to get started today. I highly recommend you start with my “UnStuck” mindset program in unit one! This will get your head in the game, which is critical to your success!
However, this is a customized group program where you get a personal health assessment and intake by your Nutritionist who will guide you with respect to nutrition, lifestyle and supplement recommendations specific to your goals and challenges.
How do I know if a group program is right for me?
This isn’t like any group program where the content is created for one specific issue. This is a program that gives you two health professionals and 1:1 coaching. So you have professional eyes and advice for your specific goal, hormonal imbalance or challenge.
It also has on-going education in the private membership area, weekly group coaching calls with award-winning Nutritionist Ciara Foy AND monthly 1:1 calls with your nutritionist.
Plus you have the power of community to provide inspiration and support that will always remind you, you are not alone in your struggles.
This group program far exceeds the support of just having your own Nutritionist, YES this is for YOU.
Will I be able to cancel?
No. This is not a month to month membership where you can decide to quit if you’re not showing up for yourself like you can a gym membership.
I only want you in this program if you are committed to your health and you’re willing to do the work!
We put a lot of personal time and effort into you and your health and growth in this program and I expect the same commitment from you.
Rome wasn’t built in a day and this isn’t a “diet” that you just do for a month and then go back to your old ways. This is about transformation and creating a new NORMAL that takes time and it’s why this is a three-month program, that’s the minimum amount of time you need to make sustainable changes.
No Refunds
Can you guarantee my success?
No. Here is the thing about your health and happiness, the only person that controls it is YOU.
The work you need to do cannot be outsourced!
Even when you work with Ciara to the tune of $2,000 a MONTH she will not guarantee anything.
This is because the only person who can take daily action, show up and do the work is YOU. So the person who is going to make or break your success is also YOU.
We promise to give you all the support, tools and the most cutting edge science available.
I know you’re nervous because you have probably tried a LOT of different things. You’re probably even asking yourself if you should just give up. I understand that because it’s exactly how most of my clients feel when they find me, hopeless. All you need to do is google Ciara Foy Nutrition and read all my inspirational testimonials from clients who worked with me and changed their life to know there is hope and you too can change your life with our help!
Is this the right time for you?
YES YES YESSSSSS
NOW is always the right time. There will ALWAYS be something in your life you can use as a reason to not prioritize yourself, that I can promise you.
The busier and more stressed you’re feeling right now as you read this THE MORE you need to say YES to yourself and join now!
There will never be a perfect time, this isn’t a diet- this is about creating a NEW normal in your life and that means learning to work healthy food, lifestyle and developing a healthy mindset that FITS INTO your current reality.
You could be feeling better in a week’s time.
Stop putting off your health and happiness….it’s the reason you’re feeling the way you are right now and you need this program.
Don’t waste another day!

If you’re in the game of e-commerce, then you’re always looking for ways to improve your online store. The hustle never stops, whether it’s learning about marketing email best practices, finding where to best advertise your niche, or better understanding your target market, there’s always something you can improve.
That’s why we’ve rounded up 5 little-known tactics that will have a dramatic impact on your bottom line.
1) Eliminate Abandoned Carts
41 separate studies on online cart abandonment show that, on average, 69.57% of carts are abandoned before the sale. That means you could be doing over 3x the sales you’re doing now (in a perfect world). So, how do you recoup some of that loss?
Well, look at the top 3 reasons for those cart abandonments:
- Extra costs (including shipping, tax, and fees)
- Mandatory account creation
- Long/Complicated checkout process
This all boils down to trust. First, all prices on your product list need to already reflect included fees. When you surprise a potential customer, there’s an implicit sense of betrayal (whether they consciously realize it or not). Don’t blind-side customers’. Be upfront with all costs.
Similarly, don’t make account creation mandatory for purchase. Of course, you want them to create an account. This builds loyalty with your store and gives them more of a reason to come back. But making them have to make an account just puts another hurdle before checkout, and it makes them think you’re going to bombard them with emails.
This goes hand-in-hand with the third way to reduce cart abandonment: simplify your checkout process as much as possible. Customers want to glide through the checkout process quickly and painlessly. Try to remove all the extra hurdles, such as too many pages, complicated information forms, and asking for unnecessary information. Making the signup process easy is one of many great welcome email best practices to follow.
2) Upsell and Cross-Sell Products
The power of upselling and cross-selling should not be ignored. But it often is, as many store owners focus all their efforts on customer acquisition, with the logic being “if I have more customers, they’ll buy more products.” True, but that’s like living in black and white while willfully ignoring color.
“The probability of selling to a new prospect is 5-20%. The probability of selling to an existing customer is 60-70%.” – Paul W. Farris & Neil T. Bendle, Marketing Metrics
That means it is to 14x more likely to sell a product to an existing customer than a new one. And upselling and cross-selling is the way to do it.
For a quick overview, upselling is selling a more expensive, upgraded product that’s similar to the one the customer’s looking at. Cross-selling is selling a product that the customer may also like, which may happen to work in tandem with the current product.
While upselling is straightforward, there are a bunch of methods for cross-selling.
- Show your highest-selling products at checkout
- Show similar items, or ones that work well with the current product, at the shopping cart step
- After waiting a period of time after purchase, send the customer a follow-up email with suggestions for similar items (If you can, add a coupon code for an extra incentive)
When you cross-sell, it’s important to offer a select few relevant items, rather than bombarding the customer. Overchoice is a real psychological phenomenon, one that could cost you sales.
Upselling and cross-selling pay dividends, upping the number of product purchases across your pool of customers. Do it, and reap the rewards.
3) Facebook Remarketing
Even if you’re unfamiliar with the term, you already know what remarketing is. It’s when you visit a site or look at a product, and then start seeing that product everywhere for the next few weeks.
Don’t you want your customers to see your products everywhere they go?
There are tons of benefits to using social media to attract customers. Well, Facebook remarketing is an easy and relatively cheap way to do it. Here’s a simple guide on how to “retarget” (remarket) using Facebook.
In fact, this infographic by Wishpond tells you pretty much everything you need to know about remarketing.
Source:)
4) Increase Purchase Frequency
Of course, increasing purchase frequency is a surefire way to increase sales. That’s simple enough. But just because it’s simple doesn’t mean it’s easy.
So, let’s start with the obvious. If you want to increase purchase frequency, you should sell products that expire and/or get used up. Better yet, if you can get your customers on a subscription plan in which products are automatically purchased at certain intervals, you’re onto something special.
But say you’re like most e-commerce stores, and you sell things that are a little more… permanent. Well, for these types of stores, it all comes down to discounts, sales, and interaction frequency.
If your products are at all seasonal, you need to be emphasizing the importance of buying them at the right time. This means you have to stay ahead of the game by implementing sales.
For example, if you’re a clothing store, you’ll want to implement a summer sale for all your warm-weather clothing. Anticipate the upcoming season, and offer these clothes to your customers before they’ve already purchased their summer wardrobe.
Additionally, offering coupons and discounts to returning customers is a great way to show you appreciate them, as well as bringing them back for more purchases.
Interaction frequency follows a similar mindset. By increasing your interaction time with your customers through consistent emails, blogs, ads, and all-important SEO, you’ll increase exposure to your brand, and sales in the process.
5) Work with Affiliates
What could be better than having a prominent speaker tell thousands of their loyal fans about your specific product?
That’s the idea behind affiliate marketing, where you pay a fee (or sometimes a commission) to tell their audience why they love your product. When done well, it can mean a major boom to your sales. If done poorly, it can be a huge bust.
So how do you choose the right affiliate? You do your research.
First and foremost, the product has to be something your affiliate would logically use. (Getting Kylie Jenner to promote your new hunting accessories wouldn’t be the best idea. But then again, that woman seems bulletproof so maybe that wasn’t the best example.)
You also must make sure your affiliate’s audience is the demographic you want. Sure, they may be in your niche, but are they the right age range? Gender? Marital status? Do they have the right income? These things must be considered.
On top of that, your affiliate must be able to SELL your product. The product might be right for them, but are they right for the product? Will they get excited about it, and will they get others excited about it too? These are important questions to ask.
The easiest place to start is within your inner group. You probably already have a passion for the products you’re selling, so you may have a good idea of who speaks to the public about these types of products. Start there. If the people you’re already following may not be the best, you can always follow a trail of breadcrumbs through recommendations, that will take you in the direction you need to go.
And once you find that perfect person, you’re off to the races.

For more than 20 years, the campaign to legalize same-sex marriage nationwide has been inching strategically toward the Supreme Court. And Friday, that strategy paid off: Same-sex couples can now get married in every state.
The Court's 5-4 ruling wasn't that surprising; for the past year or two, it even looked like a foregone conclusion. But the historic victory for gay couples didn't just happen; Justice Anthony Kennedy didn't simply wake up one day and decide it was time. It was the culmination of a long, intensive, and deliberate campaign.
Part of the strategy was to build public support; part of it was to win legislative victories in the states. But the ultimate target was always the Supreme Court.
"(I've) always said, the way we're going to win was building toward a Supreme Court ruling," said Evan Wolfson, the founder and president of Freedom to Marry. "We never believed we were going to have to win in every single state, plodding our way through Mississippi in 2030."
Wolfson has been on the front lines of the marriage-equality fight literally as long as it has been a fight. He founded Freedom to Marry in 2003, when the more established gay-rights organizations largely were focused elsewhere. The plan to get same-sex marriage legalized was primarily his brainchild—and at times, he was almost its only defender. | https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/06/how-same-sex-marriage-advocates-won-america/440169/ | 2021-05-06T14:28:44 | CC-MAIN-2021-21 | 1620243988753.97 | [] | 44 |

Teesside Drift Train
It’s rare to see any kind of drift train (or, for the purpose of argument, shall we say a large group of cars drifting in close formation at any given time) in the UK outside of Buxton, which is a real shame considering the standard of cars and driving ability that litter everything from our national championship through to grassroots events. There are a number of reasons that are unfortunately the cause of this, with health & safety and insurance between two prime examples that come to mind.
However, every now and then you do see a glimmer of a drift train emerge which, despite having a high chance of being against the track rules, will no doubt please all of those watching. As I was sat in the crowd at the first round of last year’s BDC at Teesside I noticed a group of the Super-Pro drivers heading down the back straight (led by the WKD Imports guys) and quickly fumbled for my camera. While it may not be a patch on the sort of thing you’ll see on a random Meihan/Bihoku video any time soon, it as at least a step in the right direction I suppose! | http://streettracklife.com/teesside-drift-train/ | 2018-11-13T03:55:07 | CC-MAIN-2018-47 | 1542039741192.34 | [] | 36 |

One of the most difficult challenges that a celebrity faces is handling his fans and keeping them happy, especially the ones who are adamant enough for meeting their favourite star.
Varun Dhawan is one of the most popular and successful actors of Bollywood and presently, he is busy in promoting his upcoming movie “Kalank” which is going to release on 17th April. In this flick, Varun is starring with Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha.
Recently, a female fan of Varun created drama outside his house. As per a source from the actor’s security team, she wanted to meet Varun, was waiting outside his house for a long time and didn’t wish to return without having a tryst with him. It is a part of security team’s job to deal with the fans who are mostly nice and sweet and never cross their limits. What’s more, Varun also take selfies with them if he has time.
Well, nowadays he is very busy but this fan was adamant and in no mood to listen while Varun returned late and wanted to take rest. At first, she threatened to harm herself but when it didn’t help, she started saying that she would take Natasha’s life.
Natasha Dalal is Varun’s long time girlfriend and as the security team saw her getting aggressive and threatening to harm Natasha, they got a little worried and informed Varun about it.
He also got panicked and when she refused to return even after 45 minutes, the security team decided to take help of local police. A formal complaint has been lodged in the Santa Cruz police station and an FIR will be registered only after the “Judwaa 2” actor gives his statement.
Being too much passionate is also not correct sometimes. What do you say?

General Ty Seidule returns to the Buzzkill Institute to talk about his wonderful new book, “Robert E. Lee and Me: a Southerner’s Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause.” This is required listening for every American, and all those interested in why our country continually struggles with racism, white supremacy, and false and ahistorical interpretations of the Civil War. Episode #403
Buzzkill Bookshelf
Ty Seidule, Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner’s Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause
In a forceful but humane narrative, former soldier and head of the West Point history department Ty Seidule’s Robert E. Lee and Me challenges the myths and lies of the Confederate legacy――that its undisputed primary goal was the subjugation and enslavement of Black Americans――and how they embody a cultural gulf that separates millions of Americans to this day.
Part history lecture, part meditation on the Civil War and its fallout, and part memoir, Robert E. Lee and Me challenges the deeply-held legends and myths of the Confederacy―and provides a surprising interpretation of essential truths that our country still has a difficult time articulating and accepting. | https://www.professorbuzzkill.com/robert-e-lee-and-me/ | 2022-05-16T08:05:45 | CC-MAIN-2022-21 | 1652662510097.3 | [] | 21 |

Good Morning,
I was just wondering how the showers are on VIA rail as I am planing on using the train to get to Edmonton.
I found out that they have push button showers. I have bad arthritis in my wrists and really have hard time with those push button showers.
I been using shower friend to hold the buttons on the arenas but want to know if it would work on the rail as well. LINK There is the product and video demo.
I can actually lend it to someone and see if you think it will work and get it back when you return.
Would really appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Kuga

My recollection of the showers on VIA are that the controls are very easy to use and that the button is not difficult to push in at all. When is your trip planned? I will be aboard a Budd-equipped VIA train (the same kind of cars you would be riding in) at the end of February and can report what I find then as its been a couple years since I last used one of those kinds of showers.
You are booking sleeper, yes? I only ask because coach passengers have no shower access.

The Kelowna Rockets are blasting off at just the right moment.
Jamie Benn scored the overtime winner as Kelowna rallied to defeat the Vancouver Giants 3-2 in WHL action Saturday night.
With the win, the Rockets are 12-0 against playoff-bound teams since Feb. 1 and 15-2-0-1 overall, enough to elevate Kelowna to third place in the Western Conference.
The Rockets were winless in five games against Vancouver prior to February, but have won all three meetings since, holding the Giants' high-powered offence to just six goals while scoring 12 of their own.
Colin Long, with his 32nd goal, and Tyler Myers also scored for Kelowna (43-21-1-3), which scored three unanswered goals after trailing 2-0 midway through the second period. Long made 2-1 just before the end of the second, then Myers levelled the score early in the third with a long point shot following a pass from Long in the far corner.
The Rockets have won four straight and eight of their last 10.
Elsewhere in the WHL, it was: Seattle 6, Tri-City 0; Lethbridge 4, Saskatoon 3; Brandon 2, Regina 1; Kootenay 4, Medicine Hat 1; Red Deer 4, Swift Current 3; Spokane 5, Prince George 2; and Chilliwack 5, Portland 3.
At Kelowna, B.C., Garry Nunn, with his 25th goal of the season, and J.T. Barnett, with his first, scored for Vancouver (55-8-2-3), which, for just the second time this season, suffered back-to-back losses. In early October, the Giants suffered back-to-back shootout decisions, though Vancouver has not lost back-to-back games in regulation time.
Mark Guggenberger made 29 saves for the Rockets, who have four regular-season games remaining, including two home dates. Tyson Sexsmith stopped 21 shots for the Giants.

Airlift systems have been locked into an unchangeable design paradigm since before World War II. The reason for this is the insecurity of decision makers in deciding to try new ideas. This fault permeates the aerospace world because its core dependency on engineering innovation has been overshadowed by a lack of competition, short-term business profitability, and immense personal financial rewards for ignoring design and engineering innovation.
The basic concept of the Configuration Air Transport was advocated by Major General James Gavin following World War II. This was tried out with the Fairchild XC-120.
With colleagues at the Aeronautical Systems Center, Wright Patterns Air Force Base, we resurrected this concept to explore, both technically and operationally, a modern version of Gen. Gavin’s concept.
Video explaining the CAT concept:
This is a profesionally prepared 12-minute video that explains the CAT concept and shows the strategic and tactical versions of the CAT. This video is in the pubic domain.
Technical articles and presentations (all in the public domain):
- Global Air Mobility and Persistent Airpower Operations
- Source: Air and Space Power Journal published by the United States Air Force Air University at Maxwell Air Force Base, AL, Fall, 2004; available online.
- Article background: The concept of a “mother” aircraft capable of carrying a detachable cargo module originated with Major General James M. Gavin, United States Army, and was published in his book Airborne Warfare in 1947. A description of his ideas along with the pertinent illustrations from the book are located on this web site. When the article “Global Air Mobility and Persistent Airpower Operations” was written, while I was aware of the Fairchild prototype XC-120 aircraft that implemented General Gavin’s ideas, I did not become aware of his ideas until after this article was written.
- My first conceptual design of a module carrying aircraft was developed in the mid-1990’s and resulted from my involvement with Air Force futures wargaming. For the scenarios considered, it was apparent that improved air mobility capabilities were needed. Responding to this need, I developed what was then called the Common Air Transport or CAT. This was envisioned as a flying wing aircraft capable of carrying a single large module. The module was sized to carry the same payload as a C-5 Galaxy. John Livingston, one of the aircraft conceptual designers at the Air Force Aeronautical Systems Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, suggested a name change to the Configurable Air Transport. This, he successfully argued, better reflected the true multi-mission capability of the concept (and it maintained the CAT acronym).
- This Air and Space Power Journal article examined the application of this larger CAT to the Air Force’s missions for airborne tankers, air mobility, and air power projection. The intent was to make a statement about the untapped potential of air mobility that has yet to be fully exploited by the Air Force.

- Abstract: This paper describes a concept of a large flying fuselage transport aircraft that carries the cargo or missionized payload in several large, detachable modules instead of carrying this cargo or payload internally as in current aircraft designs. The paper addresses the application of this concept to the global military airlift missions of air refueling, materiel transport, and persistent air power projection. The paper concludes with a brief discussion of the extension of this module-based aircraft design to other emerging military and commercial air transport needs.
- Article background: After the Air and Space Power Journal article, described above, was written, I decided to develop a second iteration of the CAT concept. The original CAT concept carried only a single large module that was approximately 150 ft in length, 30 ft in width, and 19 ft in height. On reflection, this was seen as impractical for normal air operations and it was decided to downsize the module and make appropriate changes in the CAT configuration.
- Besides the complexities of handling the large module, an important constraint of the original CAT design was that the width of the CAT’s main landing gear was too wide to permit the aircraft to taxi on the existing airports’ 50-ft wide taxiways. A key change in this updated configuration was the adoption of a module size that would be able to be carried on different sized aircraft. With the driving new air mobility requirement being defined by the Army’s air mobile Future Combat System, the new module size was now only slightly larger than the fuselage of a C-130 tactical transport aircraft. Based on this change, the new conceptual design of the larger or “strategic” CAT was developed. It is important to note that, like the first article, this conceptual design also represents a “back-of-the-envelope” sizing of the vehicle. A true conceptual design and analysis of the configuration was yet to be accomplished. This was later done and is the configuration shown in later presentations and videos.

SCOTS scientists have worked out the secret of an even more delicious bacon butty – stop pigs fighting.
Their research shows that reducing aggression in herds of pigs results in better-tasting pork.
When pigs are mixed into groups over their lifetime, a hierarchy forms, resulting in fighting amongst the animals, according to experts Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC).
The stress and physical damage that results from fighting affects the quality of the meat, say the team based at Roslin, Midlothian.
A new £600,000 study will now try to find out how infighting among pigs can be reduced – resulting in a even more heavenly-tasting morning snack.
One approach the team will take is to see if it is possible genetically to remove aggressive tendencies among pigs.
Scotland’s pig farmers currently produce 58,000 tonnes of pig meat annually worth £150m to the economy.
SRUC senior researcher, Dr Simon Turner, who is leading the study, said: “Reducing the level of aggression obviously takes away the harm caused by it which in turn affects the quality of the meat.
“If they’re fighting less then there’s less stress, less injury and the immune systems are not suppressed, meaning better quality products after it’s been processed.”
Pigs are often held in large groups which are regularly mixed up as they grow however when introduced to a new group, aggression begins to develop a hierarchy.
Experts have discovered that aggression directly affects the growth rate of pigs.
Dr Turner said: “We know aggression affects the animal’s growth rate every time they’re moved into a new group.
“The suppression of 10% lasts for around two weeks after the animal is moved, meaning the overall size is affected as well as the speed of which the animal is ready to be processed.”
The researchers have discovered that one of the problems may be that pigs are not very good at picking fights.
Dr Turner said: “Humans are able to assess both their own fighting abilities, and those of their attacker.
“But.”
The expert added that over the years researchers hadn’t had much luck finding methods of reducing aggression, such as tranquilising the animals or mixing them at night.
He added: “We need to help pigs realise when it would be sensible not to engage in aggression, because their opponent is likely to beat them.
“At the end of these projects we hope to be able to offer better advice on how to manage and breed pigs in ways that will help the animals make the best decisions for their own welfare, and so reduce aggression.”
The study is being funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Science Research Council which will link it up to another one which aims to find out where pigs’ aggression comes from.
Top Scots chef, Mark Greenaway, welcomed the news for Scotland’s larder.
He said: “Of course this is a good plan. Anything that helps makes this country’s fresh produce is a fantastic idea.
“I actually used to have pigs myself actually and although there was only three of them, one was very aggressive.
“He would eat all the food and was much bigger than the rest and that’s why it aggression in alpha males can be a problem for commercial pig farming.”
“So hopefully, by reducing aggression, we will see the quality of pork produced in this country become even better.” | http://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2014/01/15/beating-aggression-makes-bacon-better/ | 2017-11-18T02:49:30 | CC-MAIN-2017-47 | 1510934804518.38 | [] | 111 |
Hi,
I'm compiling OpenInventor on linux, using "angbodhi"'s
libFL wrapper library included in the inventor sources.
If I run "ivview jackInTheBox.iv", absolutely nothing comes in the
window. However, if I remove the "string [...]" lines from the
SoText2 node in the .iv file, it works.
Eventually, I discovered that it is the space character that causes
the problem. With any SoText2 node, if the string is "abc", the text
displays OK. If I change the text to "a b", then the inventor window
comes up blank. [I'm using Utopia-Regular font, symlinked to
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/UTRG____.pfa, a file that comes from xfree86
4.0.3.]
After some poking around, I discovered something odd about the libFL
wrapper. If anyone can shed light on this, I'll be grateful. In the
file flfreetype.c, function _flFTGetBitmap(), there is code that
creates a bitmap structure for outline fonts, something like:
...
bbox_width = BM_TRUNC(face->bbox.xMax - face->bbox.xMin);
...
bit3->xmove = width > 0 ? width : (bbox_width / 2.0);
which seems quite reasonable.
For the space character, both the height and width are zero, so the
xmove field gets set to bbox_width/2. For some reason, this value
turns out to be outrageously large: something over 600,000.
I changed the line to read
bit3->xmove = width > 0 ? width : 10;
and it "works" in that I can render SoText2 nodes with spaces in the
string. Clearly this is not the right fix. Help!

Since 1969, Willie Nelson has played one guitar, and one guitar only - a Martin N-20 (4-20?) he named Trigger after Roy Rogers' horse. "I figured," Nelson told Dallas Monthly in 2012, "this is my horse."
The acoustic model is not only famous for the longevity of it and its owner (Nelson turned 86 on April 29), but for the second gaping hole created over the years by the sheer force of Nelson's playing. It also has been autographed by many friends; some are more visible than others.
The article explains how the guitar has been maintained for the last 45 years - thanks, in large part, to Austin guitar repairman Mark Erlewine, who reconditions Trigger twice a year. About the hole, he notes, "I always thought it enhanced the sound."
Trigger rarely leaves Nelson's hands. According to the article, Nelson once punched a drunk Jerry Jeff Walker when he found him fooling around with the guitar against his wishes.
In a recent interview, Nelson explained how he acquired the guitar and why he likes it so much:
'I had a Guild guitar that I was playing. I had it laying on the stage there. I had the case open and some drunk stepped on it and busted it all to pieces. I called Shot Jackson in Nashville and said, 'You got any good guitars for sale up there, I just busted mine?' He said, 'I have this Martin N-20 that's a good guitar." I said, 'Do you think I'd like it?' He said, 'Well, it's a Martin, they don't make bad guitars.' I said, 'How much is it?' He said, '$750.' I had just bought a roping horse for $750. I said, 'Well, I guess that's the price of the day.' So I bought the guitar. I've had it ever since. It has the tone that I like. It has a Django-like tone. Django Reinhardt's my favorite guitar player. Any time I can hit a note that sounds anywhere near what he did, and I like it, so that's why I got so hooked on Trigger.'
Watch Rolling Stone's short film about Trigger, narrated by Woody Harrelson.

“Quite frankly, ag was blindsided by this. We knew there was going to be some discussions on pesticides. There’s been a movement since this governor took office to look at lower-risk pesticides,” said Roger Isom, President and CEO of the Western Agricultural Processors Association and California Cotton Ginners and Growers Association. “The Administration has said the goal is to eliminate the use of pesticides eventually. Which obviously is just not realistic. But in this budget, they propose to increase the mill assessment significantly, in some cases more than doubling it in a very short time period.”
The mill assessments will be tiered based on toxicity levels determined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Pesticides with the highest hazard designations will have the highest assessment values. Assessments for some of the higher-tiered materials will be approximately 45 mills. “The thought is that it’s going to dissuade growers from using the more toxic chemicals and go towards the softer ones. The problem is, that demonstrates a lack of knowledge on how the ag industry works with crop protection chemicals and insect control,” Isom noted.
The budget proposal will be reviewed and debated upon by the state legislature. Adjusting the flat fee structure of the mill assessment that has been consistent for more than 10 years requires legislative action. The proposed assessment increase is likely to face significant opposition from the agricultural sector.
“It really doesn’t serve the purpose I think that they’re trying to go after,” said Isom. “It’s going to serve as – again, like everything else in California – just increased operating costs and making us less competitive with other states and countries.” | https://agnetwest.com/industry-concerned-proposed-increases-mill-assessments/ | 2021-05-06T02:51:27 | CC-MAIN-2021-21 | 1620243988725.79 | [] | 111 |

Welcome and thanks for dropping by.
This blog was inspired by First 50 words where you freewrite from a single word prompt. Not only are many of the stories 50 or 55 words long but several are also based on Twitter length constraints. However, I also write longer ones but still on the shorter side of short short stories!
The stories and occasional poem are stand alone as well as being a seed-bank for longer treatments. Oh and sometimes I'll do a book review because it's my blog and I can!
Each is reviewed and revised over the years as I learn more about writing and change my mind on the interplay of prose and poetry in any one story. I tend not to keep these earlier 'drafts' on the premise, 'if I'm not interested why would you. | http://ramdom-short-stories.blogspot.co.uk/p/about.html | 2017-07-20T22:49:45 | CC-MAIN-2017-30 | 1500549423512.93 | [] | 38 |
Authors: Lyudmyla Khrenova, Zhanara Yessenova and Riya Raphael
In this conversational blog, we seek to explore slow movement in order to gain insight, challenge some of the norms and enjoy a conversation over tea! We aim to link degrowth and “slow” and explore whether slow could be compatible with degrowth and in what way.
Zhanara: When we start talking about slow movement, there is a question: what do we actually mean? and where did this all start? Here it would be good to mention that slow movement takes its origin in the concept of Slow Food which appeared as an opposite movement to fast food.
It arose in Italy to call for local food production, sustainable farming techniques, cooking and eating in a healthy, slow and friendly environment. What is important when we talk about slow movement is that it addresses the critical and eternal question of lack of time in a society that lives under stress of working more, gaining more and consuming more. It brings us to the problem of time poverty.
Lyudmyla: But why do we experience time poverty? Time is an important resource for management of production, particularly for calculating labour-power. Both time and labour power become commodities that actually operationalise capitalism. (Marx 1976). Therefore creation of different temporal spaces could allow to challenge capitalist economy as well as to question the supremacy of a productive lifestyle when you live to work, to earn and then to consume. For instance, phenomenon of squats can be brought up here as an illustration of a space with different time-spending practices (Cattaneo, Gavaldà, 2010), as living in squats often involves unpaid work on renovating abandoned houses, communal gardening and volunteer service work.
Riya: Yes, Lyudmyla, I agree with you. For me, the most fascinating part of slow movement has been to think about time and temporality. What you said reminds me of E.P Thompson’s work on time, where he discusses the differences of the perception of time by different communities. He says that since the clock arrived on the factory floor, the bodies and movements of the workers was much more controlled. Their breaks and productivity was counted on the basis of how much they produced during a specific time frame, for example, work productivity in an eight-hour working-day (Thompson 1967). So, I completely agree about the need for a counter-movement to the hegemonic fast-paced life and fast-food and the constant rush, but is ‘slow’ practical?
Zhanara: Here we should note that we are not calling to do something slowly just for the sake of the word “slow”. Slow living basically means doing something at the speed that allows us to appreciate the quality, enjoy the process and truly benefit from it. This concept eventually benefits everybody because such a way of living allows involving people on the basis of mutual interest. There is an interesting Russian saying: ‘the slower you go, the further you`ll get’. That makes a lot of sense when we talk about the quality of what we do and who benefits from this quality. Could the idea be compatible with a growth-oriented society? I don’t think so.
Lyudmyla: Yes, to be slow here means to produce different ways of interactions. The type of communication which gives space for and also highlights meaningfulness and caring. Moreover the slow approach is supposed to provide time for reconsidering what you are doing and why you are doing it. Whether your current activity is worth spending your life on? Whether it is satisfying for you? Whether it contributes or at least does not harm your well-being?
Riya: I completely agree with the two of you but I feel that it would be easier to theorise it than to put it to practice. Because, for example, in academia, while the professors, who have permanent positions can opt for a slow academic life, younger scholars and people without permanent contracts can find it hard to practice it because of their precarious positions. And the system is built as such that we have to publish in order to get jobs, and at least get some kind of security in this neoliberal academia, which makes one feel uncertain most of the time.
So, for me more than the motivation of competitiveness to publish in fancy journals, I feel that we are bound by the motivation of securing a future.
Lyudmyla: This is absolutely true, but I think the whole point of slowness, as said, is to challenge social structures, through proposing alternative temporalities. It has to be a complex process of finding time to devote to restructuring of working environment. We need to reflect on and reconsider those foundations that underpin academic labour and realise the presence of gender, class and race struggles in universities.
Zhanara: I suppose, with this we come up with the question of choice. The modern society functions in a way that most people are forced to work under conditions of fixed working hours, for instance, from 9 am to 6 pm without the connection to actual efficiency of these hours or without linking this schedule to the specifics of a job. Or, as you say, researchers work under stress to produce articles and to complete a certain amount of hours in conferences and workshops. But then, is it the person who chooses this way of living or is it the system that forces everybody to play by these rules of the game? At the end of the day, on a personal level can we really choose how to manage our own time?
Lyudmyla: But whether it is really a question of choice? Don’t you feel that the neoliberal economy tends to individualise social problems. Look at how many books there are on time-management, time-efficiency as well as public talks on the struggle against procrastination. Whereas we almost never challenge temporality itself. The lack of time is rarely brought up as a social problem for all of us, but is often presented as something private that just needs to be managed smartly.
Riya: Yes, I don’t think it’s about the individual choice in this matter, because if we make an individualistic premises to begin with then we assume that even time is private property – that can be saved, wasted, spent and so on. Therefore, I think there has to be an institutional change in order for academia to be slow. Because it seems that universities publish because they want to compete with each other, for global rankings, more research in a university means a better ranking position. So, I think there needs to be a larger structural discussion about the obsession with a constant lack of time.
Zhanara: Well, that is the point. Time scarcity can be addressed through the degrowth prism because it is important to collectively decide if we want to have more free time as an aspect of well-being and less time-stressed society and, obviously, we will have less working hours to be paid for but we still compensate it with life satisfaction and fair work distribution. And again, being paid less there would be less temptation for unnecessary consumption and more time for ourselves, our families, our connections, enjoying nature, etc.
Riya: Yes, definitely, degrowth society can be a conducive space to rethink about work and time and quality of life. But I would also add that time devoted to care and social relations should not be romanticised because it is often gendered and racialized (for example, in global care chains). But of course if we can practice work-sharing, not only will we have more time but can also change socio-cultural gendered and racialized roles.
Lyudmyla: I think it has to be acknowledged that the practices that slowness involves, such as sharing and caring are also tiring and challenging. So being slow is not only about chilling and relaxing. In this case we definitely have to admit that commitment to slowness is a process and a struggle. Yet, we have to be careful with those dangers that slowness implies. To some extent slow – is a paradoxical concept. On the one hand slowness aims to challenge inequalities while urging to favour well-being of all rather than few. Whereas on the other hand, slowness is a luxury which is affordable only to few. You can juggle your time resources only if you have enough power, enough independence and autonomy, as this is a position that allows you to make a certain choice.
Zhanara: I would suggest us to especially focus on one of the most important aspects of degrowth such as unnecessary consumption. Lyudmyla, you are asking whether the time for slowness can be found. The point is that time as a resource is already being played around by growth-oriented societies. So, what if we take time out of the systemic input-output framework? Let`s say, people are paid not for hours they spend at work but rather for the contribution they make to common well-being. Practical example: in some rural Spanish areas people do not work to buy houses, cars, advanced domestic appliances, posh clothes, etc. Some families inherit the land of their ascendants and they build houses little by little, sometimes, through couple of generations. They work in their farms, get what they can from yields and invest it into a house meanwhile continuing having their slow and enjoyable lifestyle in the countryside – in the modern terminology we call it simple pleasures: rural food from local markets, family gatherings, walking in natural landscapes, getting to know the laws of the land they farm. Thus, I suggest combining the shift from unnecessary consumption, re-considering time as the right rather than resource and slow living.
Riya: In this case, don’t we risk romanticisation of the Spanish example, how many people can really afford to move to farms and subsist? Since that seems highly unlikely, I agree with Lyudmyla regarding the paradoxical nature of slow movement, I think slowness for some would directly require others to compensate and work more, at least within the current work-paradigm. And there is another paradox that bothers me, on the one hand we want slow movement as part of the degrowth society and on the other hand, we want to change the structures fast because growth society cannot be sustained for long…
It seems that we are left with more questions than answers, but I politically believe that rethinking and redefining temporalities is important for degrowth conceptually as well as practically.

We already know that Pixar is working on John Carter of Mars, a big-screen adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ pulpy Barsoom tales that began with A Princess of Mars. But with a planned release of 2012, who knows if we’ll ever see it? Especially if they make it a Christmas Day release, which would put it mere days after the Mayan apocalypse …
Never fear! Asylum, the industrious folks behind such bargain-bin knockoffs as Snakes on a Train, Transmorphers and AVH: Alien vs. Hunter, are at it again, cutting Pixar off at the pass with Princess of Mars starring Antonio Sabato Jr. and porn queen turned B-movie maven Traci Lords. According to WorstPreviews.com, the faux flick will be available on DVD on or after Dec. 29.
This bounty of Burroughs is possible because his books, like those of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Jules Verne, are in the public domain (meaning copyright has expired).
The trailer, which you can view on the jump, shows that Asylum isn’t satisfied with simply not having to pay a license fee. They go one step further and tie this to James Cameron’s 3-D epic Avatar — which, it crows, was inspired by the Tarzan author’s extraterrestrial tale.
In the story, Carter, a Civil War veteran who fought for the Confederacy, “dies” in Arizona and awakes on the Red Planet to battle green aliens alongside a beautiful princess named Dejah Thoris.
Pixar’s version, penned by Michael Chabon and directed by Andrew Stanton (Wall-E, Finding Nemo), will star X-Men Origins: Wolverine cast members Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins as Carter and Thoris. Willem Defoe will portray the Martian leader Tars Tark. | https://nerdvanamedia.com/books/princess-of-mars_burroughs_traci-lords/35313/?shared=email&msg=fail | 2019-12-05T19:39:51 | CC-MAIN-2019-51 | 1575540482038.36 | [] | 88 |

Shehbaz, Gates discuss flood devastation in Pakistan
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday met co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Bill Gates in New York to discuss the recent devastation caused by flooding in Pakistan, which has displaced 33 million people, as well as polio eradication and primary health services in the country, an official statement said.
The premier updated Gates on the impact the floods are having on people’s lives and livelihoods, and public health in Pakistan, and the work the government is urgently undertaking to alleviate suffering.
The statement said that Gates expressed his concern for the people of Pakistan following the floods and reiterated the foundation’s continuous support and partnership with Pakistan during this challenging time.

He affirmed that the Gates Foundation will continue its current support including the disaster relief efforts in flood-affected areas of Balochistan and Sindh.
The prime minister and Gates discussed the impact of the floods on immunisation and maternal health services and polio eradication in particular.
The prime minister acknowledged the need to prioritise maternal and newborn care in flood-affected areas and thanked Gates for the foundation’s support to Pakistan’s relief efforts thus far.
On polio eradication, the prime minister and Gates discussed that eradication efforts were facing a challenging situation because of the floods, especially after a recent rise in the number of wild polio cases.

The statement said that the premier reaffirmed the government’s resolve to pursue the campaign relentlessly. They agreed to continue their collaboration with polio partners to urgently reach vulnerable children with polio vaccines through the remainder of 2022 and prevent the disease from re-establishing itself in Pakistan’s major cities. Gates thanked the prime minister for his continued prioritisation of polio eradication.
The prime minister and Gates also spoke of how the polio programme is using its robust infrastructure to support the acute phase of the flood response, including deploying its surveillance system to monitor for malaria, dengue, and water-borne disease outbreaks as well as helping to deliver other life-saving vaccines to children.
The polio programme, with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, is currently conducting 1,200 health camps in the worst flood-affected districts across Pakistan.
They exchanged views on the need to continue their close partnership together to ensure Pakistan can continue to make progress on health and development including enhancing agricultural resilience and rebuilding sustainable infrastructure that can withstand future climate shocks.

KARACHI / LAHORE / PESHAWAR:
Given the influx of patients at public hospitals and a painkiller shortage all over the country, those suspecting they have contracted dengue or are actually infected with the virus have resorted to home remedies, which might not be as effective as perceived.
Placebo treatments, like papaya leaves’ juice, papaya powder, and papaya syrup, have flooded social media as dengue has tightened its grip around the country and go-to painkillers like Panadol have disappeared from pharmacies due to skyrocketing demand post-floods. Dr Saeed Khan, Head of the Molecular Pathology Department at Dow University of Health Sciences, highlighting the dangers of home remedies, said that there was no research to suggest they worked.
“This is a deja vu of the Covid-19 pandemic where people were trying every herbal medicine being circulated on the internet. Mostly these indigenous remedies are of no use,” he remarked. Dr Saeed was of the view that patients of dengue should not risk self medication as the lack of timely medical care could have drastic consequences. “Those who suspect that they have dengue should immediately visit a hospital and consult with a doctor.”
READ City grapples with spurt in dengue cases
However, Haris Khan, a resident of Peshawar, believes that Dr Saeed’s advice is of little use when the medicines that doctors are prescribing are not even available in the market. “My brother currently has dengue and we have no choice but to treat him at home,” lamented Haris, adding that even non-prescription drugs like Panadol, Brufen, and Disprin are missing.
He further said that pharmacies are exploiting the situation even more by gouging prices of essential medicines “so people really did not have a choice but to sit at home and hope for the best.” The price gouging of medication seems to be a national problem as pharmacies in Karachi and Lahore where Panadol is available are charging up to Rs 900 per box. President of the Wholesale Chemists Council of Pakistan, Atif Billo, when asked about the high rates, said that it was simple economics.
“The demand has exceeded the supply hence the exorbitant prices.” Rates of mega units of platelets, used to treat patients with severe dengue, have also gone through the roof. A survey from private hospitals in Karachi revealed that private blood banks are charging Rs 30,000 to Rs 35,000 to supply one mega unit, and that too against four donors of blood.
Despite the steep prices, Dr Ahmad Zeb, a medical specialist from Peshawar, was of the view that homemade remedies should be taken with a grain of salt. “If a patient’s condition is severe, relying on social media medicines will not improve their health. If such remedies worked then doctors would close up shop and sit at home,” Dr Ahmed candidly remarked while talking to The Express Tribune.
