#SC2018: National Dems Go After Catherine Templeton
GOP gubernatorial candidate slammed for failure to take a position on “Republican” tax cut …
Last week, this news site covered a broadside from the Democratic Governors Association (DGA) against incumbent “Republican” governor Henry McMaster of South Carolina.
In our coverage, we noted how curious this criticism was …
“The last time we checked Palmetto State Democrats were far more concerned about McMaster’s top rival,” we wrote, referring to Lowcountry attorney Catherine Templeton.
Indeed they are …
Templeton trails McMaster in the polls by a considerable margin, but that’s attributable almost exclusively to the latter’s name identification. The 70-year-old politician has spent the better part of four-and-a-half decades either holding or campaigning for elected office in South Carolina. McMaster has been a U.S. attorney, SCGOP chairman, attorney general and lieutenant governor – not to mention a failed candidate for governor and U.S. Senator.
Templeton? This is her first time running for elected office … any office … and she’s been able to emerge as McMaster’s most viable opponent without having to spend significant resources on boosting her own name identification.
Anyway …
This week, national Democrats finally got the memo and turned their attention to Templeton – chastising her for failing to take a position on the tax bill currently moving its way through the U.S. Congress.
“South Carolinians deserve a governor who will put South Carolina first, but Catherine Templeton refuses to take a stand on this critical bill that will raise taxes on middle-class South Carolinians and blow up the national debt by $2 trillion,” said DGA communications director Jared Leopold. “It’s time for Catherine Templeton to if she stands with governor Henry McMaster in supporting the congressional GOP tax bill. By refusing to speak out against this tax plan, Templeton has made clear where her priorities really lie.”
Templeton’s response?
We’re waiting for it …
(For our latest thoughts on the GOP tax bill, click here).
This isn’t the first time Templeton has been criticized for not taking a position on tax policy. Last month, she was blasted by fiscally conservative state senator Tom Davis for failing to take a stand on a gas tax hike passed by state lawmakers back in the spring.
This news site opposed that levy – and our founding editor Will Folks is currently suing to have it overturned on constitutional grounds.
Davis – who led the legislative resistance to the gas tax hike – told us he is closely watching the debate in Washington in the event there is a need “to mitigate the disproportionate treatment” contained in the GOP tax bill.
Davis has previously supported broad-based individual income tax relief for Palmetto State citizens and small business owners. He’s argued (correctly) that South Carolina not only has the highest marginal income tax rate in the southeast – but that this rate is regressive in that it kicks in on all income over $14,600.
Templeton has yet to roll out her 2018 tax plan, but we believe the issue represents an opportunity for her to bolster the populist credentials she recently embraced. It also represents an opportunity for her to gain additional ground in her battle against McMaster – a scandal-scarred, status quo incumbent who is unlikely to endorse anything resembling real tax relief as part of his reelection bid.
McMaster was supposed to cruise to victory in 2018 after the governor’s mansion was gift-wrapped for him by U.S. president Donald Trump back in January. Trump recently came down to raise money for McMaster, an October endorsement which clearly failed to move the needle for the incumbent.
Any other candidate would have translated these advantages into guaranteed reelection. McMaster, however, remains exceedingly vulnerable due to his fiscally reckless “leadership” (here and here), his gross incompetence in leading state government (here and here) and his inability to reverse the state’s pervasive economic stagnation (here and here).
McMaster is also increasingly weighed down by his proximity to #ProbeGate, an ongoing, multi-jurisdictional investigation into corruption in state government that has ensnared many of his political allies.
Partisan primary elections in South Carolina will be held next spring. To follow our continuing coverage of this race (and other statewide elections), click on articles tagged #SC: Catherine Templeton for Governor

El Mirador, Peten, Guatemala
Project Zooarchaeologists: Kitty Emery and Erin Thornton
How did the earliest “elite” of the Maya world use and control their abundant animal resources to enhance their status and record their wealth?
El Mirador was one of the most fabulous and developed of the Preclassic cities of the Maya world. With its monumental constructions and obvious complexity of land-use, is it any wonder that we are fascinated by the ways that the residents of this site used their environs not only
as a source of food, but also for ritual, economics, and politics? How did they first use animal products and images as markers for status and wealth in this locus of early development of hierarchical society? How did they manipulate the resources to ensure that the emerging elite were provided with the best and the tastiest foods, and the most spectacular shell jewelry and bone tools?

Nikola Kalinic believes arriving late, injuries and being one of 11 new players were to blame for his disappointing spell at Milan.
Kalinic was one of Milan’s most expensive signings in the summer of 2017, arriving from Fiorentina on loan with a €25m obligation to buy, but scored just six goals for the Rossoneri.
The Croatia striker has since joined Atletico Madrid, although he made it clear he bore no ill-feeling towards the Diavolo.
“For me, it was difficult,” he told AS.
“I couldn’t do preseason with the team. I was training alone in Split, waiting for the transfer to happen.
“I arrived once the season had started. Then I had many physical problems... Milan are a great club, who are used to winning and fighting for trophies, and want results very quickly.
“However, 11 new players had arrived and It takes time to build something. Still, I wish Milan all the best. They deserve to fight for the Champions League.
“Gattuso is amazing. Away from football he’s someone who likes to crack a joke and have a laugh, but when he starts training or is on the field…
“He gives everything and wants everything. He presses you. He’s crazy, but in a good way. He’s a great person and I think Milan will go far with him.”

In this article we will in detail describe the best hotel offers in Kazan on the eve of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup and the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Kazan is one of the largest tourist centers in Russia. The tourist volume in the capital of Tatarstan is a bit less than in the largest cities of Russia (Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Yekaterinburg), and also the southern resort cities (Sochi, Simferopol). Besides, Kazan in 2013 became the capital of the Summer Universiade when the city was significantly updated including the hotel sector — in Kazan new hotels in all price categories appeared. Today Kazan is included into ten cities of the world with the most fast-growing tourist traffic.
Let`s consider several accommodation options in Kazan for the coming football fans.
Hotels near the stadium
Advantages of accommodation near stadium are obvious. First, you need not much time to get to the stadium and to leave it after the match. It is not a secret that on large sporting events it is desirable to leave for the stadium in 2-3 hours not to get stuck in traffic jams and not to miss the match beginning. If you stay within walking distance from Kazan Arena, you will be able to walk to the stadium 20-30 minutes before the match. Secondly, Kazan Arena is practically on the Kazanka River bank. For those who stay near the arena there will be an opportunity to enjoy the picturesque green area near the river and to combine sports and beach holidays.
So, our rating of the best hotels in close proximity to Kazan Arena Stadium:
Inexpensive hotels
It is not a secret that during the large sporting events causing a tourist boom, some hotels increase their prices by several times seeking to earn as much as possible. However, and for persons interested to save, the Kazan hoteliers prepared a number of inexpensive offers. Here are several inexpensive hotels and hostels in Kazan:
Hotels in the city center
Accommodation in the downtown has its indisputable pluses. The central part of Kazan is extraordinary beautiful, and accommodation in the downtown will give a chance to enjoy both room window views and walking around the beauties of the world value. For example, the Kazan Kremlin ( in the downtown area) is included in the UNESCO list of architectural values. Nevertheless, it should be taken into account that due to its location, accommodation in such hotels is much more expensive:
Other hotels
In general, Kazan is one of the most inexpensive and compact million-cities in Russia. The price level in the city is acceptable for any foreign touris. Hostel offers in Kazan begin from 20-30 euros for a bed. The average room price in 2-3-star hotels makes 40-70 euros, in 4-star hotels it does 100-300 euros.
You can choose hotels on the map of Kazan and specify the preferable price in the lower right corner:

One of Alicia Malone’s earliest childhood memories was seeing her first film, The NeverEnding Story in a movie theater with her mom and sisters in her native Australia. Although she was just three at the time, she can still recall the deeply intense feelings she had watching Atreyu trying to save his beloved horse Artax. “I started crying and yelling…I made so much noise my mum had to take me out of the theater,” she said.
FilmStruck host Alicia Malone is doing her dream job recommending movies and interviewing directors.Turner
That cinematic experience set in motion her lifelong passion for watching movies and her career as a film reporter, TV host and author. “It taught me from a young age that movies can be powerful,” said the self-proclaimed movie geek. “Movies are powerful because they tell stories. Storytelling is one of the most human things we do. Stories can connect us. They can divide us. They can create empathy. They can incite hate.”
Malone, who has lived in Los Angeles since 2010, is now in her dream job as host for FilmStruck. Nirvana for movie buffs, FilmStruck offers instant streaming access to beloved classic movies, hard-to-find treasures and cult favorites that are carefully curated by film lovers and cinematic experts. (It's like one-stop shopping for rare, classic, foreign, arthouse and independent cinema.)
“FilmStruck is the only streaming movie service that is created by film lovers for film lovers. It’s the exclusive streaming home of the esteemed Criterion Collection and curated by the expert staff at both Criterion and Turner Classic Movies,” explained Jennifer Dorian, GM of Turner Classic Movies and FilmStruck. “There is no algorithm telling you what you may like to watch. Every film has been hand-picked by film experts for a reason,” added Malone.
So how do you take that thing that fuels your fire and make it a career? Malone offered her best guidance on turning your passion into your livelihood.
Discover what you love. "I feel really fortunate that I’ve been able to make my hobby my career. A chart called 'Ikigai' has been making its way around social media. Ikigai is based on a Japanese concept about the secret to happiness. It suggests finding the intersection between doing what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs and what you can be paid to do.
This is a great place to start. Figure out what you love to do, what gaps there are in the market that you could fill and your natural talents. That is exactly what I did. Then don’t give up, put in the hours, be reliable and nice. Create a network for support. Know it may take years. You may have to work for free before you can make your passion into a living."
Don't wait. "But the good thing about the world now compared with when I was starting out is that you don’t have to wait for someone to give you a chance. You can start to work on your craft, make a brand and build an audience yourself — with social media, blogs and YouTube. My advice is start. Don’t wait. Just do it. Be consistent. Build up a body of work that you can send out to pitch for work. And always have ideas ready that the business you want to work with really needs. Most of my jobs have actually come from me pitching myself!"
Jennifer Dorian, GM of Turner Classic Movies and FilmStruckTurner
Set specific goals. "I’m a big believer in goal-setting and being very specific about what you want to do. Write down your dreams, then break them up into smaller actionable steps. Dream big, but be realistic about what you need to do to get there. It won’t magically happen unless you put in a lot of work."
Share your dreams. "Tell everyone what your dreams are, because you never know who will help you. For example, seven years ago when I moved to Los Angeles, I wrote 'Work with Turner Classic Movies' on my goal list. That was in late 2010, and I knew I needed to do a lot of work before I could get there. I worked on increasing my knowledge of classic film, becoming a more confident and natural host, branding myself on my own social media and using any chance I got to talk classic film.
The introduction for TCM came through a podcast about classic film that I was doing for free as a side job. Then when I auditioned for FilmStruck, outside the makeup room they had a sign with my name and the TCM logo. I thought that even if I didn’t get the job I had made it! It took me six years and a lot of hard work, but it’s so worth it. As I like to say, the years of struggle is all part of my E! True Hollywood Story."
Find a niche. "One of the best pieces of advice I ever got was to find a niche I loved and become an expert in it. This advice came after showing a producer in Australia my first showreel. It is full of cringe-worthy moments of me trying to fit into the mold of what I thought I had to do as a TV host. There is even a shot of me in a bikini top pretending to be on a travel show! Oh, young Alicia!
This producer asked me about my real passion. When I said 'classic films and independent films," she advised me to follow my passion. She told me that there may be fewer jobs for an indie and classic film specialist, but there are also less people trying to do that job. So, I threw myself into becoming an expert. I watched a lot of movies, read books, and honed my unique voice and skills as a host. And so when the job came up for FilmStruck, I ended up being perfect for it. And it’s my dream job!"
Look for ways you can help others using your unique skills. "I’m also so passionate about supporting women in Hollywood, so as soon as I started to get a bit of a following I knew I wanted to use my platform to speak up for women and maybe start some conversations around it. That led me to speak at two TEDx conferences and write my first book (both were long-held goals). My book is called Backwards and in Heels about the history of women in American cinema. I feel so grateful when I see photos of people reading it on social media!"

76ers earn 2nd victory of season, outlasting Pistons 108-101 in overtime

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – Detroit's Greg Monroe leaped toward the basket and missed a dunk. Then moments later, Philadelphia's Henry Sims had the ball right next to the basket and blew the layup.
On a night when something had to give, the 76ers held the Pistons without a field goal in overtime, beating Detroit 108-101 on Saturday for their second victory of the season. The Pistons lost their 11th straight game, this one in a matchup of the teams with the NBA's two worst records.
The 76ers (2-18) have won two of three after starting the season 0-17.
"It is huge for these guys to be able to close out a tough game on the road like that," coach Brett Brown said. "I'm proud of the way they hung together through that streak and now they are getting some rewards."
Detroit (3-17) now leads Philadelphia by only a game in the standings. The teams entered with a combined record of 4-34, the second-worst in NBA history for teams about to play each other — with a minimum of 38 combined games. The 76ers and Buffalo Braves were 4-35 entering their meeting Nov. 24, 1972, according to STATS.
Detroit led 100-97 late in the fourth quarter when Hollis Thompson — seemingly rushing a shot straight off an inbounds — sank a fadeaway 3-pointer from the right corner to tie it with 13.4 seconds remaining.
It took almost half the overtime for either team to score. Monroe missed a dunk early on. The Pistons took the lead when Kentavious Caldwell-Pope made a free throw with 2:37 left for the first point of the extra session, but the 76ers scored eight in a row to finish the game.
Robert Covington scored 25 points for Philadelphia and Michael Carter-Williams added 20. Josh Smith led Detroit with 23 points, and he also had eight rebounds and seven assists.
It was 104-101 after Nerlens Noel's floater with 29.9 seconds remaining. Caldwell-Pope missed two 3-pointers at the other end before the 76ers were able to secure the ball and close out the game from the free throw line.
The teams were facing each other for the first time since March 29, when the 76ers snapped their record-tying, 26-game losing streak with a 123-98 rout of the Pistons in Philadelphia.
The Pistons and 76ers are in this position in large part because of their atrocious shooting. Detroit finished at 39 percent from the field Saturday, while Philadelphia shot a more respectable 46 percent.
There was one sequence in the fourth quarter when Detroit's Brandon Jennings traded airballs with Thompson, then Jennings missed a layup.
The Pistons host Philadelphia again Jan. 17.
TIP-INS
76ers: Since Jan. 31, Philadelphia is 2-1 against the Pistons and 4-49 against everybody else.
Pistons: Jennings and Caldwell-Pope each went 2 of 10 from the field. Jennings had six assists and five turnovers.
HOLDING THEIR OWN
With their front line of Smith, Monroe and Andre Drummond, the Pistons can be tough to deal with on the boards. They finished with 15 second-chance points, but Philadelphia had 13.
"We knew it was going to take all five of us to keep those guys off the boards, so this was definitely a group effort," Carter-Williams said. "Our bigs were doing everything they could, and we were trying to help them out."
EMPTY POSSESSION
After Thompson's tying shot, Detroit had a chance to win it at the end of regulation, but Jennings couldn't even reach the rim with a step-back jumper.
"My fault," Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. "When it broke down, we couldn't get the ball where we wanted to go with it. I should have been jumping up, calling timeout. My fault."
UP NEXT
76ers: Visit Atlanta on Wednesday night.
Pistons: Host Oklahoma City on Sunday night.

Ducks ride wave of good news to beat the Wild, 4-2
By Kevin Baxter, Los Angeles Times
When you are closer to the bottom of the league standings than you are to the top, you take your victories where you can get them. And when they come in spades? Well, so much the better.
That certainly seemed to be the case Tuesday for the injury-riddled Ducks, who snapped a two-game losing streak by fighting their way past an ill-tempered Minnesota Wild, 4-2, at the Honda Center.
Of more importance, however, is they did it behind a stout offensive effort that featured two goals and an assist from Bobby Ryan; a season-high 17 shots in the first period; and 21 shifts from center Ryan Carter, who had missed the previous 22 games with a broken foot.
“Hopefully it’s just a sign of things to come for them,” Ducks Coach Randy Carlyle said. “Every game is the most important game as we go forward. You’ve heard it said in sports a thousand times and you’re going to hear it a thousand more. Because it’s a fact.”
Another fact: The four goals the Ducks scored Tuesday doubled their output from their previous two games combined. And the sputtering offense figures to get a couple of more boosts in the next week with the return of Teemu Selanne, out a month with a broken hand, and Ryan Getzlaf, who was sidelined Tuesday with a leg laceration.
That would leave the Ducks healthier on the front line than they have been in more than a month.
“That’s a lot of points and a lot of offensive production we’re missing,” said Ryan, whose three points matched a career best. “So myself and Saku [Koivu] and [Dan] Sexton, it’s a big night. We need to step up. It’s nice to contribute when those guys are out and get this team going.”
They did just that Tuesday.
With Minnesota playing its second game in as many nights, the Ducks came out quickly, taking an early lead when Ryan intercepted a pass in the neutral zone, circled back across the blue line and scored his 18th goal of the season on a wrist shot at 7:08.
Minnesota’s Antti Miettinen tied the score on a rebound at 15:41, but the Ducks went back on top 35 seconds later with a pretty goal that started with Ryan skating into the Wild zone on the right side and drawing three defenders before passing across the ice to a wild-open Sexton for the score.
Things got chippy in the second period, with the Wild drawing 31 minutes in penalties, including two 10-minute misconducts and a five-minute major for fighting. The Ducks took advantage with Ryan’s power-play goal at 18:44, giving him 100 points for his career.
The assists went to Scott Niedermayer and Koivu, both of whom could get more good news today when Canada, Finland and Switzerland release their rosters for February’s Olympic tournament.
Getzlaf, Niedermayer and Corey Perry are all given good chances to make the Canadian team while Koivu and Selanne could make the Finnish team and goalie Jonas Hiller, who turned back 29 shots Tuesday, could go to Vancouver with Switzerland.
After Kim Johnsson got the Wild close with a power-play goal at 13:07 of the third period, the Ducks killed penalties to Niedermayer and Nick Boynton in the final three minutes before Todd Marchant finished a strong performance — and the Minnesota comeback — with an empty-net goal.
“I think we’ve been in desperation mode for 10, 15 games here,” Ryan said. “We need to get out of the cellar. So this is a very critical part.
“We’re at a point where we’re looking up instead of where we were 10 games ago, looking down on ourselves.”

Phil Jackson sends off fiery tweet about three-point shooting
Phil Jackson has always been known for honesty, and he came out with some honest stuff on Twitter over the weekend.
Whether he was right or wrong in his sentiment, Jackson certainly told his version of the truth Sunday, when he fired off the following tweets which pertained to the perceived value of the three-point shot in today’s NBA.
NBA analysts give me some diagnostics on how 3pt oriented teams are faring this playoffs…seriously, how's it goink?Article continues below ...
—
The Knicks have earned a reputation as one of the league’s least analytics-driven organizations. This string of tweets clearly isn’t helping.
There are a few fallacies embedded into Jackson’s statements, too. Of course, that tends to happen when you only get 140 characters to make a point that has far too much nuance to come across in a couple of sentences.
It’s the old adage: Live by the jump shot, die by the jump shot. Jump shooting teams can’t win come playoff time.
Of course, you should really be shaking your head whenever you hear someone say those basketball idioms, since they’ve proven to be untrue time and time again in recent years. Just look at the champions we’ve had over the past four seasons.
The 2014 Spurs: Jump-shooting team.
The 2012-13 Heat: Jump-shooting team.
The 2011 Mavericks: Jump-shooting team.
The tweets are an obvious reference to the Warriors, the league’s preeminent three-point shooting team, falling down 2-1 to the Grizzlies and the Hawks, who had the second-best three-point percentage in the NBA, doing the same to the Wizards. I’m sure he didn’t forget about the Rockets, either, who are now trailing the Clippers 3-1. But the reputations are misleading to a degree, not because those teams don’t bomb from beyond the arc, but because their opponents are shooting disproportionately well during the postseason.
Washington is making 43 percent of its threes in the playoffs. 43 percent! Chicago has the second-best percentage in the playoffs at just under 40 percent. The Spurs and Clippers follow.
Teams who make threes are still winning games. And the Warriors and Hawks, who have missed shots in uncharacteristic fashions, are hardly out of their series and could easily come back to win them.
Also, those who value three-point shooting don’t appreciate it over dribble penetration. Actually, the two go hand-in-hand. The most valuable long-range shots are set, catch-and-shoot opportunities. And what’s the best way to get those? Drive-and-kicks. Dribble penetration.
Jackson’s tweets come off more as hot takes than as anything else. But Knicks fans can rest assure than ideals like this encouraged an out-of-date offensive system to hold them hostage, even if the team mostly scrapped the vaunted triangle offense by the end of the year.

"All the equipment will be supplied.
"Acoustic guitar players, solo and duo artists - we welcome anyone."

The next market will be held on Sunday, February 18.
"Don't forget that on market days for a gold coin donation you get to see all the animals for free," Helen said.
"You can see the walk-through aviary, the dingos including Spirit the white dingo, the reptiles, feed the kangaroos and wallabies and visit the emus and the camel.
"There is so much to do - you can even bring out a picnic or have a barbecue."
The Wildlife Sanctuary markets are held at the sanctuary, Mungar Rd, Maryborough West on the third and fifth Sundays each month from 7am-1pm.
There is a good variety of stalls including food and drinks.
For stallholder enquiries phone Helen Down on 4123 4171 or leave a message.

1 Comments in Response to Anna Schwartz blames Fed for sub-prime crisis
In watching the video, I did not hear what part of the Constitution Huckabee would consider to be out of sync with Christianity or the word of God.
I do understand, forcing people to pay a tax to finance schemes and projects with which they disagree (abortion, welfare for foriegn dictators etc, etc.) to be out of step with Christianity and the word of God. But according to his record as Gov. of Arkansas he would disagree with that position. So, in my opinion he is not credible to make such a determination. Especially since he has been ordained as a Baptist minister.

Xavier Bray: "Demystifying El Greco: His Use of Wax, Clay, and Plaster Models"
width="140" height="78" alt="Link to video of Xavier Bray lecture" data-
Xavier Bray, Arturo and Holly Melosi Chief Curator at the Dulwich Picture Gallery, presents his lecture "Demystifying El Greco: His Use of Wax, Clay, and Plaster Models." An inventory of El Greco’s studio made in 1614, at the time of his death, lists some fifty models of plaster, clay, and wax. Bray considers how these models may have been used and the role they may have played in the creation of his quintessentially otherworldly style.

A US judge has dismissed Apple's injunction claim against Motorola, although he's left them an option of appeal.
The final 38-page ruling reads:." The judge argued that Apple failed to prove that it lost market share, brand recognition or customer goodwill to Motorola.
Analysts aren't surprised at the outcome. Namely, the judge was inclined to dismiss the case and had cancelled a jury trial earlier.
Patent consultant Florian Mueller said he is sure that the case will be appealed to the Federal Circuit. He added that Apple "didn't do its homework in terms of expert reports and witnesses" to get something out of the case.
Seeing as how nobody is interested in backing down, we're likely to hear more news on this front.

Good morning everyone!
Have continued on my path towards achieving my full physical potential and have been fortunate enough to think of some new exercise circuits to put together for you guys.
I was doing some work with dumbbells last week and figured I would put it on video and put it out as a full on instructional. If you are a personal trainer, these exercises happen to be very easy to apply into your functional training regimens with your clients. If you’re not a trainer and are just looking to switch up your functional workouts, this will be very enjoyable for you.
Enjoy!!!

Take Off Into Space With Sunless Skies
Following on from their 2015 success with Sunless Sea, London-based developer Failbetter Games are adding a new game to their repertoire called Sunless Skies. The game is currently nearing the end of its Kickstarter campaign and has amassed nearly triple its original target! The studio was hoping to crowdfund £100,000 but they are nearly at £300,000 with 9 days still to go!
Sunless Skies is a story-led top-down exploration game set in a Victorian England setting, already developed in the studio's first game Fallen London. Players take on the role of a captain onboard a locomotive spacecraft who sets out to explore the heavens, or the "High Wilderness" as it is called in the game. You will come face to face with great and terrible beasts who call it their home. As any good captain does, you will need to keep an eye on your crew to stop them from succumbing to the terror of facing these fearsome foes.
The game sets itself apart from others in the same genre by highlighting the technological and ideological differences between Victorian and modern day exploration.
“The idea of Victorians in space is absurd, but when you get beyond that, it’s actually terrifying. What would that much industrial hunger and capability do, if it were untethered by gravity and far from the moral compass of home?”
CEO and Art Director Paul Arendt
After the Kickstarter campaign has finished, the game is expected to get an Early Access release in Summer 2017 with the full game expected to release in May 2018.

Stay on target
If you consume a lot of Japanese culture, namely anime and manga, you probably know a thing or two about fan translations. Without them, a lot of our favorite properties wouldn’t be available for us to consume. Unfortunately, there are several people out there who capitalize on these acts of benevolence that end up harming the very industry fans should be looking to support.
That’s why Japanese police are coming down hard on a supposed underground ring that’s working to translate and post Japanese content on social media for free, which as you can imagine is costing billions of dollars for Japan and the companies that create this media.
Various police precincts in Kyoto, Shizuoka, Mie, Shimane, and Yamaguchi prefectures of Japan have been working together to arrest Chinese citizens who are working to put all of this illegal material online, with all of the suspects averaging in their 20s, including a few students as well. They’re supposed to have copied over 15,000 items altogether, which of course “translates” (couldn’t resist that) into a whole lot of work.
The investigation is ongoing, and some of those involved are working with the police. The group has, however, arrested someone who has translated the Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V! translator of the video and manga, who met up with the rest of the translators via online social media platform Weibo, which is a lot like Twitter. The consequences are pretty harsh too, with the suspects potentially facing ten years in prison, civil suits, and up to $90,000 worth of damage. It’s a little scary to think how much this hurts both parties, but it’s an ongoing issue that the industry is looking to clamp down on to keep from hemorrhaging money, and understandably so.
This is a good time to remind you to support official releases and not pirate anime or manga, but, well…you already knew that. Hopefully.
Speak Your Mind

Hard to feel sympathy for the workers the way I normally would when workers are made redundant. This situation has become untenable.
I have never understood striking.
If you don't like your pay or working conditions, as far as I am concerned you have a few choices. Raise it with Management, and if they don't show interest, either ask what you can do to achieve your goals, or find some where else to work that will pay you what you believe you are worth. If you are worth it, you should have no troubles finding something else, if not, then you stay where you are, and get on with your work.
If enough people leave for better paying jobs management will likely revise their packages to be competitive.
This striking nonsense is just mind boggling. My wife is a doctor and when the others doctors decided to strike over pay and conditions she refused for the health of the patients. Her colleagues abused at her and one of them actually spat at her. Defies belief.
As this is likely a contentious issue I recommend everyone check their posts beforehand for adherence to the FUG.

Looks like the CyanogenMod 6.0 "DS" (Dream / Sapphire = HTC G1 and HTC Magic 32b) is now out. This is Android v2.2 built from source by Steve Kondick (Cyanogen) and 'his' team.
The link is here
cranz: Pitty I broke my magic the other day :(
I was looking forward to this but couldn't resist trying to build it from AOSP myself, ended up stuffing my bootloader.. Now I can't get past the splash and can't boot into recovery, fastboot or hboot !
____________________________________________________

rp1790: Hmm, I tried one of the nightlys on Saturday for the Desire and got stuck in a bootloop. Managed to get a recovery image on there and all working on the original HTC Sense ROM but can't get back into recovery mode or root it at all.
Really like trying different ROM's, now I'm stuck. Mind you, it emphasized that the HTC ROM is pretty darn good!
____________________________________________________

Linuxluver:
From what I understand, if you can turn it on, there is hope.
There is a thread at XDA developers in the Dream section...Maybe in the Sapphire section, too.....on recovering bricked phones. There are a couple of devs who have access to HTC tools....and they may be able to help if you want to follow it up.

Feb 5, 2008 - The Associated Press
Three of the nation's largest investment
banks said Monday they've developed new environmental
standards to help lenders evaluate risks associated
with investments in coal-fired power plants.
Citigroup Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co.
and Morgan Stanley say they've produced "The Carbon
Principles" together with several large power companies,
Environmental Defense and the Natural Resources Defense
Council, that will make it more difficult for new
U.S. coal-fired power plants to secure financing.
The focus of the principles will be
to steer power companies away from plants that emit
high levels of carbon dioxide -- a greenhouse gas
-- and to focus on new, cleaner and renewable technologies.
The principles do not, however, strictly prevent any
of the banks from financing the plants.
About half of the electricity in the
United States is generated from coal-fired power plants,
according to the Energy Information Association.
The new lending creeds come at a time
when uncertainties for coal and power companies abound.
Coal-fired power plants have been scrutinized by environmental
groups and regulators over the emissions of harmful
pollutants. Congress is mulling legislation that would
limit greenhouse gas emissions. Plans for coal-fired
power plants have also recently been squashed in several
states, although more are being planned to account
for a predicted surge in electricity demand.
Energy consumption in the U.S. is expected
to double in the next 22 years, according to the North
American Electric Reliability Council.
But the principles also come at a time
when the country's biggest financial institutions
have grown skittish after taking billions of dollars
in write-downs from mortgage-related debt. Investment
in coal-fired power plants could prove to be risky
investments that many banks aren't willing to take.
"With these principles, we are making
a very serious commitment to examine the risk around
coal-fired power plants," said Eric Fornell, vice
chairman of JPMorgan's natural resources investment
banking unit.
The plants have economic consequences
that "need to be carefully examined," he added. "Investors
need to know what they are getting into."
Fornell said JPMorgan is talking to
competitors about the possibility of adopting similar
policies.
."
But Rebecca Tarbotton, director of the
Rainforest Action Network's Global Finance Campaign,
said the new regulations don't go far enough. The
Rainforest Action Network has long fought the big
banks to impose environmental standards in their lending
practices.
"Calling them the Carbon Principles
is an overstatement," Tarbotton said. "A serious climate
change policy would commit the banks to emissions
reductions in their financing and extend beyond coal
into other carbon-intensive sectors such as coal mining
and the oil and transportation industries."

2017 Kia Cadenza Garden Grove CA
This year is an exciting one for the 2017 Kia Cadenza in Garden Grove CA, as the model continues to offer extraordinary appeal heading into an all-new generation. Though the Cadenza is relatively new to the Kia lineup, it is already a tempting choice for drivers seeking a larger car with premium features, all while having an attractive price tag for its class. Kia is clearly seeking to improve on a good thing and knock out expensive competition. The most noticeable difference is in the front end, which is more aggressive and sophisticated.
You’ll immediately notice the different to the exterior as the front end has a completely new look with either the familiar diamond-butterfly grille or the new Intaglio grille with the vertical, concave slats. Styling cues continue into the interior with soft-touch materials throughout and soft leather surfaces. A lower driver seat creates a more comfortable feeling for the driver. Choosing the 2017 Kia Cadenza is partially about picking an affordable and attractive upscale model, but it has plenty of modern features too.
Features
Quality is the name of the game when selecting a larger sedan, and the Cadenza delivers. Available features include LED lighting, chrome accents, Nappa leather upholstery, driver assistance features like smart cruise control, forward collision warning and blind spot detection and improved smartphone connectivity.
Style
The 2017 Kia Cadenza has undergone an impressive redesign to make it modern for today’s automotive market. Its profile is sleek and sophisticated, giving a coupe-like appearance to the four-door sedan. The Tiger nose familiar to Kia provides an aggressive appearance, with two grille options depending on trim.
Performance
The Cadenza is no underpowered compact, but a potent full-size sedan ready to put the enthusiasm back into car ownership. Under the hood is an updated 3.3-liter V6 engine that offers up an estimated 290 horsepower. Paired with this is Kia’s first front-wheel drive eight-speed automatic transmission.
What’s new for the 2017 Kia Cadenza?
Starting up a new generation for a model is always an exciting time for an automaker because the reviews are in for the old generation, and Kia is looking to improve upon any faults and add more features, style and power. The first generation Kia Cadenza was still riding on an older platform which was a bit heavy for its class. Things are changing, as Kia focused on redesigning the model to be stronger while losing considerable weight, resulting in a much more spirited driving experience.
One thing many people enjoy about a larger model is its power, but not the accompanying road noise. The 2017 Kia Cadenza promises to be much quiet than the previous generation. Kia has added acoustic-absorbing laminate to the front windows, increased insulation and a full floorpan undercover to help reduce noise overall.
With modern available features from all the latest in driver assistance functionality to an updated infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, it’s clear Kia is looking to provide a competitive option in its 2017 Kia Cadenza.

Chapter 4
Dara smiled at Taylor as he closed his eyes and waited for the pill to work it’s magic. She looked at his hands, which were resting on his thighs. Ever so gently she ran her fingertips over the golden hairs on the back of his left hand, and whispered, “You have beautiful hands.”
Taylor opened his eyes, and looked down. He watched as she gently traced circles on the back of his hand. Her light touch, even though it was just on his hand, seemed to race through every part of him, and a nice tingly feeling took over.
He glanced up and looked into Dara’s eyes. As she leaned over, some of her hair brushed against his hand. It’s silky texture sent a jolt through his body, and he knew he had to touch it. Gingerly, he took a curly strand, and let it slide between his fingers, enjoying the sensation it gave him.
Dara smiled at him again, and as he smiled back, he suddenly felt her fingertips leave his hand and gently begin to run lightly up and down his thigh. His heart was pounding, the noise ringing in his ears so loud that it muted all the other sounds in the room. Dara was teasing him, getting very close to the top of his thigh, then letting her fingers slide down again, just barely touching his leg, but enough that he felt as though he was on fire. Taylor thought he might explode if he didn’t kiss her soon, and leaned in towards her. His lips just barely brushed against hers, before she gently pushed him away.
Taylor gave her a confused look. He didn’t understand why she would be touching him, she had to know it was driving him crazy, but not let him kiss her.
Dara, almost laughed at the pathetic look Taylor gave her, before she whispered, “Just relax.”
Taylor sighed. “I don’t think I can get anymore relaxed.”
Dara silenced him by gently placing her index finger on his lips. Her finger lightly traced his mouth and she could feel his breath, coming out in hot spurts, blowing across her fingertip. She leaned forward and kissed his cheek, letting her lips linger on his soft skin, before pulling away.
Taylor took a deep breath, it hitched in his chest, and he slowly let it out, hoping he didn’t get too worked up before she did anything else. He raised his hand and touched her face, stroking her cheek, then letting it slide down her neck. He wanted to touch her in the worst way, but didn’t want to make her angry.
Looking up, he licked his dry lips and gave her a pleading expression. In response, Dara kissed his lips, and placed her hand over his, guiding it down her body. Taylor’s fingers were trembling slightly and Dara kept her hand on his to steady them. Knowing that she shouldn’t, she deepened their kisses, allowing their tongues to touch.
“Do you see that?” Jake looked over from his position at the kitchen table, and was staring at the little show taking place on the sitting room couch.
Mike glanced up and nearly choked on his beer. It sprayed out of his mouth, all over the table. Grabbing a paper towel, he wiped up the table stating, “She never let me do that. Taylor is gonna be thanking me tomorrow.”
Jake laughed, looked back over at the couch and laughed even harder, “Think she’s gonna remember she was all over a little kid?”
“We’ll make sure she remembers, bahahahah.” Mike exclaimed with a mock evil laugh.
Dara was letting Taylor’s hands explore everywhere, but his trembling was worsening. He could barely touch her. As Dara was kissing his neck, she realized his whole body was slightly shaking. Alarmed, she pulled away and looked into his eyes.
“Are you ok?” she asked, genuinely concurred.
Taylor attempted to smile. He knew something was wrong. His shirt was sticking to his body, and he felt like he was on fire. Not an excited, tingly fire sensation as before, but a hot, uncomfortable sensation. Still, he wasn’t about to tell her. He didn’t feel very good, but the things she was doing to him did, and he wasn’t going to let it stop.
He caught his breath, and lied through his teeth. “I’m fine… fine.”
He leaned back in again to kiss, trying once more to melt into her the way he had been a moment ago, but nausea licked at the back of his throat, and he pulled away almost immediately.
The abrupt movement startled Dara, and she sat up suddenly, her mood now completely broken. She looked at the boy next to her, and for a moment felt real fear.
He was sitting bolt upright, hands clasped between his knees, rocking slightly, back and forth. His jaw was clenched, and she could hear his teeth grinding together. She could see him swallowing convulsively, over and over, and his breathing was sketchy and irregular.
Her first panicky thought, “Oh my God, I overdosed him!” was almost immediately replaced by the sensible, “Of course I didn’t, a three year old wouldn’t overdose on what I gave him, he’s just not used to it.”
Realizing that the speed was making him sick, she reached out and took his hand.
“Taylor, it’s okay, just try to slow down your breathing, you’ll calm down.” She tried to keep her tone soothing.
He shook off her hand, his whole body was tingling, and he was having trouble catching his breath. The last thing he wanted was something touching him. He could feel his teeth grinding, and it hurt, but he couldn’t seem to help it. Finally, unable to stand it, he jumped up off the couch. He had no idea where he was going but he couldn’t sit still any longer.
Mike saw Taylor get up and was on him like a shot. He knew the kid was reacting to the drugs he’d been given, he’d seen it starting a few minutes ago when Taylor backed away from Dara. He’d been hoping it would be a momentary thing, and would pass, but it appeared to be accelerating. He knew if he let him leave, things would not go well for him, and his main goal now, was to keep Taylor in the room, and then to make sure he wasn’t in real trouble. He planted himself in front of the pacing boy, and reached out and took his arms.
“Tay, you gotta calm down, it’s okay.” He tried to sound firm, to penetrate the confusion he knew Tay was feeling. It didn’t work. Taylor shoved him away, no small feat considering the fact that Mike outweighed him but about a hundred pounds, and headed for the door.
Taylor only knew he had to get out. He was trapped. There wasn’t enough air in here, and there were too many people. He could feel the walls closing in. To top it off he was burning up, and had to find something cool, he just couldn’t stand it anymore. He made a dash for the door and came up against Jake, who was laughing.
“Whoa, easy tiger, you don’t want to go out there, the world’s a dangerous place. You come on with Jake, we’ll fix you up fine.”
Taylor shook his head wildly, and when he spoke it was very nearly a scream, “You haveta let me out! You have to let me out!!!”
He turned, and Mike got a good look at his eyes. They were the eyes of a wild animal, cornered, and dangerous. He’d never been afraid of Taylor, but he knew that if he didn’t get the boy calmed down, things could get ugly. He approached him slowly, he didn’t want to spook him.
Taylor only knew he was sick, and he couldn’t breathe. He had to get out, he had to cool off, he had to do something. Nothing looked right, and the only sound he could hear was his own gasping breath. He didn’t know these people who were holding him back, he didn’t understand.
It was a huge relief, then, when he finally focused on Mike. Mike who was standing there, calm, and speaking soothingly. Things couldn’t be that bad if Mike was okay. He reached out and grabbed his friend’s arm, not noticing the look of pain on Mike’s face, at the strength of his grip. He just held on, and managed to choke out the words, “Help me, I’m gonna die…”
Mike chuckled softly, “No you’re not gonna die, Tay, you’re gonna be fine. You come on with me.” He continued the soothing tone and led Taylor into the bathroom, away from everyone, and shut the door. He led him over to the sink, and wet a washrag and handed it to him, knowing full well that Taylor felt like he was on fire. He’d been in the same situation more than once.
Tay grasped the cool cloth in his hands and then reached out and blasted the cold water on full force.
Mike just waited, knowing that the more he interfered, the more likely he’d be to spook him. Taylor had himself pretty well soaked, and much more alert, when he finally spoke, still panicky, but no longer out of his head.
“Mike, what’s going on, why do I feel like this?!”
Mike sighed… “The speed she gave you. You’re not used to it. You’ll be okay.”
Tay shook his head “No, I can’t breathe!… I can’t… oh God, what did I do?!”
Mike went closer, knowing Tay was coming back to himself, and put a hand on his shoulder. “You’re gonna be okay, I mean it. You’re gonna be fine. It’s gonna go away.”
Taylor just looked at him, still trembling violently, still grinding his teeth. A minute later he began to gag, and Mike spun him around and held him over the sink. He’d known this was going to happen, he was glad they were in here. When he felt Taylor’s legs giving out, he gently sat him down on the floor, and held him until the sickness passed. When it was over, Taylor sighed deeply, and laid his head on his arm. Within moments he was asleep.
Mike watched him for a short while, wanting to be sure that the vomiting was over, before he moved him. When he felt certain it was, he picked the unconscious boy up, carried him into the bedroom and laid him down on one of the beds. He watched him sleep then, timing his breathing, and checking his pulse. Finding both strong and steady, he covered him up and left the room, wondering how in the world he was going to explain this.
Something was stabbing his eyes. One minute he was sound asleep, and the next someone was driving needles into his eyes. He groaned, and reached upward, his hand blocking the sliver of sunlight that was shining on his face. The pain faded. He kept his hand there for a moment, hovering in the air above his face. Light. It was light that hurt. Light meant morning. Morning. The word floated through his mind, searching for something to connect with.
He was still trying to figure it out, when a hand gripped his shoulder. He jumped, nearly out of his skin, and his eyes flew open, staring reproachfully up at Mike, who was laughing.
“I’m sorry, I thought you were awake. You’ll have to get going, your mom told me you needed to be back by seven.”
Taylor stared up at him, confused. “What am I doing here?”
He winced, his voice hurt his head. Come to think of it, he felt pretty damned lousy. His whole body ached, his throat was so dry he could barely swallow, and he had a terrible taste in his mouth. He felt weak, and shaky… What had happened?
Mike extended a hand. “C’mon, you gotta get up now…”
Taylor took the hand, and allowed himself to be pulled upright. For just a moment he thought that awake was only a temporary condition. As soon as his head left the pillow, dizziness set in, and huge black flowers bloomed in front of his eyes. Mike held on to him, and soon enough, the feeling passed. He squinted up at Mike, who was watching him, intent but seemingly faintly amused.
“What I’m doing here, Mike?”
Mike grinned, “You already asked me that. Come on and have something to eat before you go.”
Tay’s eyebrows went up at the thought of food. Was Mike crazy? Anything he swallowed now was sure to just bounce right back. Still, he was awfully thirsty… He followed Mike out into the kitchen, noting the people sleeping on the pull out couch in the sitting room. Had everyone slept here? He tried one more time.
“Mike, why am I here?”
Mike snorted, “What’s the last thing you remember?”
Taylor sat back and thought about it.
Mike laughed, watching the little movie playing itself out on the boy’s face. He could tell what Tay was remembering, just watching his expressions change…
Tay finally looked up at him. “I got sick, didn’t I?”
Mike nodded, “Yes, you did. And then you passed out. I sure wasn’t carrying you home. Don’t worry.” He saw panic jump into Taylor’s face, “I called your mom and told her you’d fallen asleep, and that I didn’t mind if you stayed. The way you’ve been not sleeping lately, she was more than willing not to wake you up.”
Taylor nodded. His sleeplessness had been harped on until he wanted to scream. He wasn’t surprised she’d let him stay.
Mike watched his friend for a few minutes, quietly. He hoped Tay could hold himself together today. He’d had a pretty rough night. still, he didn’t look too bad…
Mike pressed a glass of juice into his hand, and motioned him over to the sitting room. “Go sit down and drink this… trust me,” he added, noting Taylor’s dubious look. He was eying the orange juice as if it were a week old dead fish.
Taylor shook his head a little, not at all sure about this. He really didn’t think swallowing anything was a good idea. His doubt turned to outright alarm when Mike handed him a donut, and instructed him,
“Eat it… I know you don’t think you can, but trust me.”
Taylor was nodding frantically, “I do, I do, but you are crazy, I’m not eating this, I’ll be sick before I can blink…”
Mike laughed. “No you won’t, would you trust me please? I know what I’m talking about.”
Taylor finally sighed in resignation, and started on the juice.
Once he was sure Taylor and food were going to work out, Mike wandered over and kicked the pull out bed.
“Hey, sleeping beauty, wake up and have a look at the monster you created last night.”
He glanced over at Taylor, who was ignoring him completely. He couldn’t wait to see what would happen between these two this morning. He kicked the bed again, and reached down and gave Dara a shake.
“C’mon, wake up. I have to go work in a little while, you too Jake…”
He reached across the bed and yanked the pillow out from under Jake’s head. Jake’s cry of irritation finally convinced Dara that ignoring them all was no longer an option. Muttering under her breath, she sat up, and her gaze fell on Taylor.
For a moment she squinted, brows knit, as thought wondering who he was, but a moment later her expression cleared, and she smiled.
“Taylor?”
He looked up, and blinked vaguely… he was having trouble staying awake.
She laughed, and signaled Mike. “He’s gone Mikey, put him to bed.”
Mike’s face was troubled. “No, he’s got to work today.” He observed Taylor’s efforts to stay awake for a minute longer, and then turned to Dara. “Let me have one of the tabs you gave him last night.”
She dug around in her jeans, and handed him what was left.
He broke a tab in half and gave Taylor a shake. “Hey, I want you to take this.”
Taylor looked up at him, and Mike felt a stab of guilt. He looked so child-like right now. What was he doing giving this little boy all these chemicals? Still, he had to work, and he wasn’t going to do it the way he was now.
“It’s going to help you feel better, Tay, so take if for me, all right?”
Taylor obediently took the pill his friend was holding out.
Again Mike felt that guilt spear, but he shrugged it off. Taylor was fine, there had been no harm done.
He headed into the shower, calling to Dara, “Keep him up, and make sure he’s outta here by 7, okay?”
She waved him on and turned to Taylor.
“Hey, you awake?”
He looked at her, bleary eyed and struggling to keep his eyes open.
“Yeah, I guess so, I have to go… why do I feel so bad?” he shook his head, hard, and regretted it instantly, as the room began to spin.
“Real bright, Taylor,” he muttered to himself, and tried to sit up straighter.
At this rate he’d never make it back to his room. He shook his head again, and was frantically rubbing his eyes, when he felt a cool hand on his neck. He jumped a little, and looked up to find Dara sitting next to him. She smiled, faintly, and turned his face toward her. He was caught up in those golden eyes again, and felt himself drifting into them, as her fingers gently stroked his cheek. Her expression was gentle and concerned, and when she spoke he heard real regret in her voice.
“Honey, I’m so sorry. this is my fault. you were so sleepy last night, I just wanted to make you feel better. I didn’t mean for it to do this to you.”
He was mystified… What was she talking about? He stared into her eyes, trying to read her.
She laughed a little, “You have no idea, do you? You don’t remember…”
Now she really did laugh, and he began to feel irritated. Whatever had gone on, he really wished someone would fill him in. He reached up and moved her hand off his face. He placed it firmly onto the seat, and when he spoke there was no mistaking the annoyance.
“Look, I don’t know what happened, and I don’t really know why I’m still here, and I don’t really care. Whatever you did, okay, you’re sorry. Cool. I gotta go.”
He stood up, and held onto the wall until he felt steady enough to walk. Dara reached up to help him and he brushed her off. For some reason, she was just getting on his nerves.
He headed across the room, staggering slightly, but he was feeling clearer and more alert with every step, but for some reason he was also beginning to be angry. He stopped at the door and turned a pointedly irritated face to her, “I’ll be back later, you tell Mike.”
He stepped out the door, but turned again, and saw the hurt on her face. He was genuinely puzzled. Why did she look like that? He softened his tone a little,”Will you be here tonight?”
She nodded, and gestured out the door, “You’d better go, you’ll be late. You be careful.”
He smiled, but it did nothing to comfort her. It never touched his eyes. He stepped out the door, and slammed it behind him.
Present Day
Taylor’s heart started to race, and his nerves to fire, remembering where all this had led. He’d probably flat out ruined the band, and he knew he’d never be forgiven for that, let alone what had happened with Zac…
Five Weeks Previous
“Hey out there, this is Kim, and we’re talking live to non other than HANSON!!”
The screams were deafening. Isaac and Zac laughed and waved. Taylor just winced, sank down into his seat, and pushed his ear plugs in a little further, hoping to drown out the shrieks.
“So guys, what do you think of this crowd, wow!”
“It’s amazing. You can’t ever expect a turn out like this, it’s great.” Isaac answered.
“Okay, well, you have a number one single, an album that is selling faster than you can say “MMMBop.”
“Oh my God,” Taylor muttered. “This girl is the biggest idiot I have ever met in my whole life,” he thought bitterly. “What, do they like purposely find the stupidest people in the world and have them interview us?”
He absently played with the cap from his bottle of Aquafina, and imagined what would happen if he suddenly decided to punch Kim. He felt a sharp pain in his right leg and looked to see Isaac staring at him.
“I’m sorry… what was that?” Taylor asked, returning the kick he had received from Isaac with an even harder kick.
“Taylor, I was just asking you if you enjoy all the attention that you guys have been getting the past couple of months.”
Kim gave Taylor a huge smile, that was so obviously fake he couldn’t stand it.
“Oh, well, gee, let me think… attention… fame… doing something I love… no I hate it. I absolutely hate it. And by the way you have a little bit of something right here,” he used his index finger and pointed to his front teeth indicating that Kim had lipstick on her teeth. Kim’s smile faded and she stared at Taylor.
“Oh, my you are funny, aren’t you,” Kim tried to laugh off the embarrassment.
Taylor was looking at her as if he didn’t give a damn if she found him funny, or not, but the look faded when he saw the expressions on the faces of his parents who were standing off to the side of the stage.
…
“Uhhh, is there a problem? Why are all of you staring at me?”
“What are you doing?” Isaac mouthed.
“Why are you whispering!!” Taylor shouted back.
Isaac shook his head, and shot Taylor a look that threatened bodily harm if he didn’t shut up. Taylor’s brows knit together, and a crease appeared between his eyes… He glared at his brother, then looked back down at the floor, refusing to respond to any further questions. If they had a problem with him, well he’d just sit there and be quiet. He didn’t want to talk to them anyway.
A loud bang caused Taylor to jump almost a foot out of his chair. Isaac gave Taylor a strange look as he watched his brother tip his chair over when he jumped up. Taylor frowned. His heart was racing a mile a minute. He was actually afraid that it might beat it’s way out of his chest. He took a deep breath and sat back down. He noticed everyone giving him looks.
“What?” he snapped.
“What, what… you’re lucky we are at a commercial break. What in the heck is up with you?” Isaac stared at Taylor. “You are completely not paying any attention to the questions, you’re being plain rude… It’s embarrassing, and just now… Why did you jump up?”
Taylor’s brows raised, “That loud bang… didn’t you hear it?”
Isaac shook his head, baffled, and annoyed.
“Loud bang? I heard a bang, but it wasn’t that loud.” He shook his head again, completely confused by his brother’s behavior. Taylor was still looking at him like he had three heads.
“Well, whatever. How much time we got till we’re back on?” Taylor was fidgeting badly.
“Two minutes.”
“I’ll be right back.” Taylor stood up.
Zac grabbed his brother’s arm. “Where are you going?”
Taylor tried to shake him off, the feeling of someone touching him was repulsive. His skin was crawling.
“I have to go to the bathroom… is that ok with you? Do I have to get your clearance to piss now too?” He tried again to yank his arm free.
“No, geez, I was just wondering.” Zac let go and stared at the table.
He couldn’t think why Tay was treating him this way, and he was angry and hurt. He sighed and looked toward Ike, who simply shook his head and shrugged. He didn’t know what was wrong with him either.
“Good, now… I’ll be right back.”
“HURRY!” Kim yelled as Taylor took off for the restrooms, nearby.
Taylor held back the urge to give her the finger. Why did she always have to shout everything she said? He quickly ran to the bathroom and shut himself into a stall.
He was just too tense to keep going, and he was starting to feel sick. He knew how to take care of that. He reached into his pocket and grabbed the valium bottle. He extracted 2 of the tabs, put them in his mouth and swallowed, not even bothering with water. He shoved the rest of the pills back into his pocket, and left the bathroom. He made it back to the stage just as the camera man was cueing Kim.
“Glad to see you made it,” Isaac whispered under his breath.
“Shut up, I had to go to the bathroom. Why does everyone seem to have a problem with this, God.” Taylor shook his head. He just couldn’t figure out what everyone had going on today.
Taylor felt a hand grab him by the back of his shirt just as he was about to head back for the interview table. He found himself looking into the angry eyes of his manager.
“You listen to me, and you listen good. I don’t know what your problem is, and right now I don’t care. If you pull anymore stunts like you did earlier, you will be outta here like that!” Chris snapped his fingers in Taylor’s face for emphasis.
“Ummm, kay,” Taylor muttered. Truthfully he had no idea what Chris was talking about, and quite frankly couldn’t care less.
A security guard led him through the crowd back towards the interview area. Sounds flew around him echoing, and everything seemed as though it were covered in a grey haze. Taylor rubbed his eyes briskly, hoping to clear up some of the fog, but to no avail.
Managing to make it to the table, he flopped into his chair and took a deep breath. It seemed like it took every ounce of energy he had to just keep his eyelids from collapsing. Resting his head on his balled up fist, he gazed off into space, oblivious to the camera man’s countdown, signaling the start of the rest of the interview.
“HEY! We’re back with Hanson. I just have to say… awesome performance guys!”
Isaac gave Kim a tight lipped smile and muttered, “Thanks.”
Less than thrilled with how they had sounded on stage, Isaac turned and gave Taylor a pointed look, who to his dismay, appeared to have fallen asleep. Isaac nudged his brother and just about died when Taylor nearly banged his head on the table.
Sitting up quickly, Taylor muttered, “Huh? What?”
“She was telling us that we did an awesome show… in her opinion,” Isaac stated, glaring at Taylor.
“Mmm, kay, good.”
Taylor resumed his original position of head resting on hand and spaced out again, trying desperately to ignore the horrible noise around him. It hurt his head to look at anything. Silently he prayed for the interview to end as quickly as possible. He was ready to fall asleep, and just wanted to get back to the hotel. Thinking about going to Mike’s and maybe even getting some shut eye, Taylor allowed his lids lower again.
“TAYLOR!”
“Whoa, what?” Taylor snapped awake again to see Kim staring at him. Everyone was staring at him… again. “Sorry,” he muttered, noticing the looks he received from his parents, especially his mother. “What did you say?”
“I asked you what made you want to be in a band with your brothers,” Kim replied, exasperated.
“Oh, umm,” Taylor shook his head, attempting to clear the cobwebs.
“Yeah,” was his response.
Kim gave him a weird look. “What? What do you mean yeah?”
Taylor blinked. “What?”
“What do you mean?” Kim was now thoroughly confused.
“Oh, umm, well… I mean… what was the question?”
“What made you want to be in a band with us!” Zac practically shouted.
“OH, umm, yeah, well… they’re my brothers. We liked singing and stuff like that, and… we sing so… umm, geez, well, you know… I mean…” Taylor trailed off, not really sure he even remembered what he was talking about.
“We all wanted to do this together. Since we were kids.” Isaac spoke up, sick of hearing Taylor ramble and stutter.
“You are kids,” Kim tried to laugh, but now just wished she had never heard of Hanson.
“Well, you know what I mean,” Isaac mumbled.
The interview wrapped up about two minutes after that. Kim could no longer bear to even attempt to get Taylor to answer her questions. She would have felt sorry for him if she didn’t think he was such a little prick. It was obvious the kid was tired, all of them were, but she still couldn’t believe the way he had acted. Almost as if he was stoned or something.
She shook off her thoughts, and wearily climbed into the van, ready to get as far away from Hanson, and especially Taylor, as soon as possible

Theoretical.
Again, this is a speculation, not theory. "As of yet, these aren't established as laws of physics we understand or have checked in any way," said Carroll. As Peter Woit, a theoretical physicist at Columbia University put it to Gizmodo, "A general piece of advice around physicists is when they say 'we don't understand what's going on here,' they really, really mean it. They're really in the dark."
Physicist Brian Greene lecturing on string theory (Image: NASA/Goddard/Wade Sisler)organised stuff. Instead, we have star systems, galaxies and galactic clusters all linked together with dark voids between them. We have order.
Additionally, entropy or disorder can only increase over time — without outside help, the sand castles will erode away. In fact, according to Carroll, our observation of time is dependent on increasing entropy since the universe began. Entropy is a physical property that is completely time dependent, riding the one-way time train into the future.
So: the laws of physics say entropy can only increase, and today's entropy is still very low. Carroll says that means the early universe had to have had even lower entropy — in other words, it must have been even more organised. That has implications for what things were like before the Big Bang. "There's a lot of people who think the early universe was simple, smooth and featureless with tiny little ripples and that's a natural place for universe to start," said Carroll. "Once you think about entropy... your perspective changes and you realise it's something you have to explain."
Entropy aside, there are other important aspects of these theories that have to line up with the universe we now live in. In some cases, winding up an a universe with low entropy is less important than others.
As we'll see, possible explanations for what happened before the Big Bang range from a Big Bounce to an endlessly branching multiverse.
A Bouncing Universe
One idea is that our low entropy universe came out of another, collapsing universe. This notion, sometimes called the Big Bounce, predicts that another universe collapsed inwards, into a point of infinite gravity called a singularity, and then bounced back to produce our own universe. Such models have been around since the 1960s at the latest, with more consideration in the '80s and early '90s. It's possible there have even been multiple bounces; an expand-and-contract cycle full of Big Bangs like a universe accordion.
A supernova, an exploding star (Image: NASA/CXC/SAO)
Big Bounce theories have issues: Namely, the idea of a singularity just blowing up violates Einstein's general relativity, the rules for how gravity works. Physicists believe that singularities probably exist inside black holes. But physical laws don't give a mechanism by which another universe, once collapsed into a singularity, should Bang. A Big Bounce, then, would require adding new particles and fields and coming up with new theories. "There's nothing in general relativity that says the universe would bounce if it turned into a singularity," said Carroll.
And there's an a even bigger problem: Bouncing universes require forward moving time with decreasing entropy, and as we said before, entropy always increases with time. That means that as far as our established laws of physics are concerned, a bouncing universe can't happen.
That doesn't mean a bouncing universe didn't happen — it could just mean our current theories are incomplete. The laws we've established only cover the universe we can observe, after all.
A Hibernating Universe
Maybe before the Big Bang, the universe was a small, slowly evolving fixed space, as theorised by physicists like Kurt Hinterbichler, Austin Joyce and Justin Khoury. This pre-Bang universe would have been metastable, meaning it would have been stable only until it basically realised there was a more stable state. As an analogy, imagine a ball sitting in a depression vibrating at the side of the mountain. Any knock could send the ball rolling toward the bottom — or, in the case of our universe, kicking off a Big Bang.
According to some theories, the pre-Bang universe simply could have existed in a flat, high-pressure state for a very long time. Eventually, this metastable period came to an end, causing the universe to inflate (as we'll explain in a bit) and turn into what we see today.
The hibernating universe theory has its own issue, explained Carroll: It also suggests our universe had a low-entropy beginning, without offering any explanation as to why. Hinterbichler, theoretical physicist at Case Western Reserve University, doesn't think the low entropy beginning is a problem, however. "We're just looking for an explanation of the dynamics that happened before the Big Bang that tells some story about why we see what we see," he said. "That's the best you can hope for."
But Carroll thinks that another pre-Bang theory could produce a low-entropy universe like our own.
A Multiverse
Multiverse theory avoids the problems of decreasing entropy over time associated with the Big Bounce, and explains the low entropy universe we observe today, said Carroll. This theory stems from a fairly well-accepted but incomplete idea called "inflation". Physicist Alan Guth, currently at MIT, coined the term inflation in 1980, which says that space in the universe expanded at incredible speeds right after the Big Bang, far faster than the speed of light. Quantum mechanics says that the space constantly experiences random, tiny fluctuations in energy, and during the inflationary period, those energy peaks and troughs could have magnified and turned into galaxies and voids, the large-scale, low-entropy structure we see in the universe today.
Scientists developed the inflationary model by observing the cosmic microwave background — the oldest, furthest light we can observe from a few hundred thousand years after the start of the Big Bang — and found that inflation perfectly predicted its existence.

Some scientists think a multiverse is also a consequence of inflation. Essentially, there's one grand inflationary soup that smaller, low entropy universes sprout out of like bubbles. These universes are unable to ever communicate with one another. As PBS Nova writer Marcus Woo explains:
In the early 1980s, physicists discovered that inflation goes on forever, stopping only in some regions of space. But in between these pockets, inflation continues, expanding faster than the speed of light. These bubbles are thus closed off from each other, effectively becoming isolated universes.
Carroll prefers this particular model, although his multiverse looks a little different from what I've described above. "It's a version of the multiverse theory, but the difference here is that the parent universe can be high entropy," with low entropy universes sprouting off. This model implies that that before the Big Bang, was the big, inflating space, from which our and other universes emerge. The other universes would be beyond the limits of our detection, and could have began before and after our own.
Woit worries that a multiverse theory, while sexy from a popular science standpoint, will cause physicists to stop looking for the answers to the most basic questions — like why the physical constants in our universe are what they are.
"Theorists had this idea that maybe there are an infinite number of universes, and we can come up with the models where the numbers" like the fundamental properties of the particles we observe, "are different in every baby universe," said Woit. He wants theorists to avoid saying that we just got lucky that we ended up in this random universe where everything happens to look the way that it does, since there's infinity possibilities, so let's give up theorising. Carroll himself prefers the multiverse, but plenty others prefer the bouncing universe.
So to sum up, lots of physicists get paid to argue and write books about which Big Bang and pre-universe model might describe what we see today. We have simplified the mathematics (and explanations) a lot, but the fact of the matter is, there is a whole lot of theorising to go before we understand how our universe came to be.
"It's important to simultaneously let people know that we don't know what we're talking about," said Carroll. "These are speculative ideas that are just beginning to be taken seriously, but there is hope! I think we can actually figure it out if we keep it up."

Forbes’ Power List
Here are some facts from the Forbes magazine’s first-ever World’s Most Powerful People list
- Only three Indian businessmen feature: Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani, ArcelorMittal chairman Lakshmi N Mittal, and Tata Group chairman Ratan Tata.
- Dawood Ibrahim and Osama Bin Laden and a Mexican drug trafficker Jaoquin Guzman too feature in the strange list at ranks 50, 37 and 41, respectively.
- Infosys co-founder and UIDAI chief Nandan Nilekani and Ratan Tata have been named a separate list of India’s seven most powerful people.
- Forbes prepared the list with four primary criteria in mind:
The number of people that a person influences;
A person’s ability to project power beyond his/her immediate sphere of influence;
What kind of financial resources does the person control of have access to; and
How actively does the person wields his/her power.
- Following table show the top 20 people and 4 Indian featuring in this list.

The Government of Andhra Pradesh, the eighth-largest state in India with 60 million people, plans to revamp its health-care system to provide more personalized care following a major pilot of the Shivom platform.
“Our partnership with Shivom explores the possibilities of providing an efficient way of diagnostic services to patients of Andhra Pradesh by maintaining the privacy of the individual data through blockchain technologies,” said J A Chowdary, IT Advisor to Chief Minister, Government of Andhra Pradesh.
Shivom will also establish a development center at Fintech Valley Vizag and also work closely with the Government of Andhra Pradesh’s International Institute of Digital Technologies (IIDT) at Tirupati on cybersecurity and analytics.
“Whilst diversity is all around us in the physical world, it is still lacking in the existing genomic data available to researchers around the world. This results in exclusion, as minority and under-represented groups miss out on the benefits from advances in predictive and personalised medicine because abnormal genomic variations that exist in their ethnic or geographical location will not be present in the data that researchers are working with,” says Dr. Axel Schumacher, Co-Founder, and CEO, Shivom.
,” continued Dr. Schumacher.
This significant partnership demonstrates a monumental shift in focussing just on genomic data for research and instead using the predictive power of the genetic data to empower the Andhra Pradesh healthcare system to shift from reactive to more preventative.

Munich Re continues to pursue profitability over growth, discovers Nick Thorpe, despite losing its stronghold as the world's largest reinsurer.
Munich Re surprised everyone with the release of its 2005 results in March with a healthy, on-target profit of over EUR2.7bn (an increase on 2004's figure of EUR1.89bn). And yet its combined ratio was up considerably to 110.5% from the previous year's figure of 98.9%. Despite this, Nikolaus von Bomhard, Munich Re CEO, was optimistic: "We have slightly exceeded our target this year. Our solid basic business makes the achieved level of profitability sustainable," he said.
Despite a record year for hurricanes, including the most powerful and costliest storms ever recorded, the group still posted a reinsurance profit of EUR1.4bn (down from 2004's figure of EUR1.7bn). Operating result before tax and finance costs was EUR2.4bn, down from EUR2.6bn in 2004, despite the group's massive hurricane loss (EUR2.3bn after retrocession) and the reserve strengthening of American Re (now Munich Re America) of EUR388m before tax following relief of EUR906m from incurred but not reported reserves.
The group continued to surprise analysts by announcing a record dividend payout totalling EUR707m in 2005. It cited the successful renewal periods earlier in the year as one of the reasons behind this generosity, particularly renewals in Japan and Korea, and pointing to underwriting discipline in this arena. "Although the high hurricane losses put us to the test last year, thanks to our broad diversification with significant operations in primary insurance and reinsurance, we were able to more than just compensate for the burdens", said von Bomhard in his report to shareholders.
Profits grew in Asia in 2005, particularly in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, with premium income rising by EUR299m to EUR499m. This was followed by the organisation's recent affirmation of further portfolio expansions throughout Asia. In life and health, premium rose to EUR7.8bn (compared to EUR7.5bn in 2004) with high-profitability business, whereas in property-casualty reinsurance it decreased by 2.1% to EUR14.5bn. Von Bomhard singled out the global health market as one that offered substantial growth and earnings opportunities. "Growth is not an end in itself. Smart growth means seeking profitability and growth potentials off the beaten track as well. Here the global health market offers us great opportunities."
Profit, profit, profit
Munich Re is one of the world's oldest and largest reinsurers, operating in over 160 countries and offering both insurance and asset management alongside its core reinsurance business. The group is highly diversified, both geographically and in terms of lines of business. Of the EUR38.1bn of premiums written in 2005, more than EUR22.3bn or 59% of gross written premiums were from reinsurance, with primary insurance accounting for the remaining 41%. Within its reinsurance business, life and health accounts for 35%, the largest chunk of gross premiums. Geographically within reinsurance, North and Latin America are key markets (accounting for 12% each). Europe accounts for around 10%.
The primary side of Munich's business is far more jurisdiction specific. The vast majority of it is conducted within Germany, which accounted for 81% of premium income in 2005. The remaining 19% is derived from other European countries. The group comprises of the ERGO Insurance Group, Europaische Reiseversicherung and the Watkins Syndicate. Until Q4 of 2005, the group also owned a 90% stake in the Karlruher Insurance Group (which was sold in October 2005 to Wurttembergische Leben for an undisclosed sum). The primary operating result in 2005 was up 242.9% to EUR1.5bn.
The 2006 Q2 results seem to support the positive outlook offered by the company at the beginning of the year. It announced a healthy rise in half year profits to EUR2.1bn, up from EUR876m in the first half of 2005. Operating results rose by over 48% to EUR3.3bn (EUR2.2bn in 2005). Reinsurance contributed over EUR1.7bn to the group's overall profit, a 156.4% increase, and the reinsurers' investment result rose to EUR2.3bn. Favourable changes in exchange rates meant premium volume was up slightly to EUR11.3bn from EUR11.2bn in 2005. The results were especially pleasing given the struggle to recover from a difficult previous year but von Bomhard was cautiously upbeat. "We have reason to be optimistic, given business performance to date, our well-balanced portfolio, and our selective risk acceptance. Even if we are more heavily affected than in the first half of the year by major losses or by a further moderate price fall on the stock markets, our target for 2006 - a 15% return on risk-adjusted capital - is still within reach."
Strong ratings performance
In November of last year, Standard & Poor's raised the financial strength rating of Munich Re to "A+" from "A" and removed them from creditwatch. The agency also raised the credit rating of American Re (Munich Re America) to "BBB+" following Munich's recapitalisation of its subsidiary after some shaky times. At the time S&P credit analyst Laline Carvalho said, "The recapitalisation demonstrates Munich Re's strong commitment to this subsidiary and the US reinsurance market despite American Re's poor operating performance in recent years."
In June 2006 the agency affirmed its ratings but revised its outlook for Munich Re and its core subsidiaries from stable to positive. This followed some key management actions over the previous months which had enhanced the financial strength of the organisation. This included a renewed focus on integrated risk management, the full integration of American Re, the managing down of strategic asset concentrations and profitability measures at primary insurer ERGO. "The outlook revision reflected the significant progress the group had made in strengthening its underwriting, pricing, and risk-management processes," said S&P credit analyst Simon Marshall. "We consider that these improvements in management, along with the introduction of a performance culture, are permanent in nature and are a leading indicator of improved financial strength," he added.
Challenging times ahead
The 1 January 2006 renewals saw significant price hikes following a turbulent catastrophe year in 2005. The premium rate increases were mainly felt on catastrophe lines, particularly US windstorm, and slight pressure on prices for liability and industrial property business in a select few countries. Generally, all other business lines have moved sideways, particularly the non-loss affected markets. The retrocessional market remains very tight reflecting the small number of players in this arena (even less following Swiss Re's announcement that it would not continue the retrocession business of GE Insurance Solutions) and the tightening terms and conditions following last years storms. Retro has simply become unaffordable, with price hikes of up to 100% recorded at the mid-year renewals, and Munich Re currently sees no reason for this to change.
Munich identifies three main challenges in the run-up to 2007 renewals - ongoing natural catastrophes; personal injury hyperinflation; and terrorism. Large reinsurers like Munich Re are relying even more on global and business-wide diversification to decrease their potential aggregate exposure to natural catastrophes. A major buzzword at the Munich Re briefing at this year's Rendez-Vous de Septembre in Monte Carlo was "diversification", with the reinsurer pointing to Solvency II as one of the ways forward. Von Bomhard voiced his appreciation for the upcoming regulations, saying they were "good news" and would encourage a highly qualitative approach and a "greater culture of diversification".
Diversification, as von Bomhard stresses, gears up large reinsurers like Munich Re to better absorb catastrophe losses. While cat events worldwide cost Munich Re in excess of EUR2.6bn last year alone, accounting for 81% of the group's total expenditure for major losses, von Bomhard is not overly worried. "Sudden and accidental catastrophes do not keep me awake," said von Bomhard. "It is the 'creeping death' scenarios, the events that cannot be stopped overnight, that give me nightmares long into the night." But so far so good this hurricane season as the reinsurer enters October with no major hurricane losses on its books.
Pipped to the post
Much has been made of Swiss Re's leapfrogging Munich Re into the coveted position of world's largest reinsurer following its acquisition of GE Insurance Solutions. If Munich is desperate to win back that accolade it has so far remained tight-lipped. But that could be changing. When asked about potential acquisition strategies of its own at the recent press briefing von Bomhard replied: "We don't need to make any acquisitions at the moment but we will not abstain if something of the right size and price came along." But he played down speculation surrounding a possible acquisition of the troubled life reinsurer Scottish Re, maintaining that the group was "not interested in the company or their book".

Munich Re - takaful license
In September 2006 Munich Re revealed it was the first foreign reinsurer in Malaysia to be granted a license to establish retakaful companies. The license entitles Munich Re to offer retakaful solutions to clients independently of any joint venture and gives them access to both the general and family retakaful businesses in the domestic takaful industry. Takaful, a 1400-year old Islamic insurance concept which observes the rules and regulations of Islamic law, is one of the fastest growing areas of the industry. In Malaysia alone it has been growing at 25% annually for the last five years and the total industry assets stand at $1.7bn.
Munich Re - Nikolaus von Bomhard
Nikolaus von Bomhard joined the Munich Re graduate trainee programme in 1985, and afterwards worked as an underwriter in the operational division: fire/treaty. In 1992 he was appointed deputy head of the operational division, Germany. In 1997 was appointed chairman of the board of management on 1 January 2004. Von Bomhard is responsible for group development, executive offices, group top executives, press and internal auditing. He is married with two children.

About
Bamboo is a New Zealand Charitable Trust (non-profit NGO) based in New Zealand, Thailand, Cambodia, and the USA. Their vision is to connect volunteers with communities in need. They offer dozens of programs in 19 countries on 5 continents.
Response from Bamboo
We’re saddened to see this review appear while we are still in discussions with you and while we are following due processes in regards to your concerns. We hoped you understood why it’s important to be diligent in our follow up to ensure that all concerns are valid and what this might mean moving forward – this means working with our partner organization in Nepal, as well as yourself.
We acknowledge the time that this process has taken, but given the gravity of the concerns you raised, we need to make a full investigation – and also to allow time for you and your health-related contacts to compile the information you wished to present.
We’re also sad that you are disinterested in reading the information presented by our partner organization as part of our formal report – this information clarifies a lot of misunderstandings that were outlined in your review and our email correspondence.
From private correspondence, we have come to realise that there is some confusion between three legally separate entities – GVN (registered charity in NZ that specialises in volunteer placements), GVN Foundation (tax exempt 501(c)(3) in the US which specialises solely in fundraising and grant distribution and does not involve the volunteering/program fee side of things) and our partner organization in Nepal. If you’d like further clarification as to what entity is responsible for what aspects, how they work together and how each is funded, please feel free to email us for this information or take a look at the “About Us” style pages on each of the respective websites, as it’s a lot to break down in this post.
Program fee breakdowns are provided to all volunteers after they are accepted and prior to making any obligation or commitment to the program – this is done in the interest of transparency, and I can confirm that this information was included in your Program Guide upon acceptance into the Nepal Program. Please see this information for more detail.
We have no concerns about how the Nepal administrators use funds as these have been independently audited by the Nepali authorities that oversee locally registered non-profits, and they have passed with “flying colours” every time. This is a regular, rigid, and state-mandated review, and covers all the aspects of fiscal and organization management that we deem important for transparency and accountability. Our own reviews across the years of financial information has never raised any issues or causes for concern either.
Just to add to this, GVN and GVN Foundation are also both independently audited by the relevant authorities and have also been found to meet necessary requirements for non-profits in each respective country, and in confirming that our work and funds spent meet our mission statements.
In regards to your concerns about child nutrition, we have come to understand that the data you have based your information on is height/weight charts found at the Children’s Home. This is not the most up to date information – this is stored at the partner organization office for privacy reasons, the same as at most doctor’s offices. Taking into account the children’s medical history is also really important – these children had a rough start in life and the nutrition they received during their formative years was definitely sub-par (ie. prior to coming to the care of SSCH).
As per the World Bank’s reports on child nutrition, poor nutrition during the first 8 years of life significantly impacts, and can even stunt, a child’s growth for the rest of its’ life. Part of the information that our partner is providing for us in response is the most recent medical information from registered health professionals in Nepal who have worked with these kids for a significant portion of their life since coming to Shining Stars. There is also medical records provided from the three health professionals who have most recently worked with the kids directly, as well as information from a past volunteer (registered nurse) who knew and worked with the children before their time in SSCH and since – it provides a very insightful understanding to how these children have grown and developed since living at SSCH, and we’re disappointed to hear you’re not interested in hearing this ‘side of the story’.
The children are fed a Nepali diet (although, 2 meals + 2 kajja a day is above what an average Nepali might have). The meals that they are given are the standard fare of Nepal – large amounts of rice, daal and vegetable curry – what all bar the wealthiest families eat twice a day, every day. On top of this, monthly funding is available for meat, eggs, fruit and milk – items deemed luxuries in Nepal and usually only consumed by your average Nepali on festival days or at weddings.
Your review states “even with this kind of evidence, their tack is to start a dialogue with the Nepali partners to give them a chance to tell their side of the story”. In the same way that you would not expect an organization to believe information presented by our partners at face value, we need to allow the same right to our partners as well in light of your (potentially very damaging) concerns. Without this open dialogue with our partners, we would not have the information above in regards to nutrition prior to SSCH, health records, etc.
We’re happy to continue discussions with you (our most recent email correspondence was less than 24 hours ago) and work on this progress together, but we are concerned that prematurely posting this information, without all the facts, may have an impact on our ability to continue supporting these children. At the heart of what you, GVN, and our partner organization in Nepal want, is the welfare and future of these children.
- Fiona GVN

Research and analysis
Evaluating the impact of Universal Credit on the labour market
A research report examining the impact of Universal Credit (UC) on the labour market in live service and the North West expansion.
Documents
Details
This report outlines the approach the department will use to evaluate the impact that the early phases of Universal Credit (UC) will have on the labour market. It was commissioned following the decision to roll-out UC gradually across the North West providing opportunities for a robust evaluation.
We plan to publish our evaluation plans at the same time as the following 2 related research reports:
- a feasibility study by the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) to explore the scope for evaluating UC under a hypothetical roll-out schedule
- a peer review by IFS of our evaluation proposals
This report builds on IFS’s detailed technical feasibility study, which was based on a hypothetical scenario for the introduction of UC. It also examines the issues involved in producing a robust evaluation. The IFS report made a number of recommendations for evaluation which we have taken on board.
A copy of IFS’s peer review of an earlier draft of our plans is included as an annex to the main paper. We updated our plans to reflect the peer review.

After going to all the trouble of purchasing a new and valuable piece of fine art to add to your collection, don’t risk damage to it during the transit and storage stages of its life. There are a number of steps you can take to ensure your art and antiques are protected for the long term.
Protecting your art in transit
Packing materials can make all the difference when it comes to transporting your art both domestically and internationally. This is a step that’s best left to the professionals who provide a white glove service to protect your valuable fine art at every stage of the move, from pick up to delivery and installation. For more information on how to protect your fine art during transit, read our latest blog.
Keep your art in the right room
The room you store your art in can make a huge difference to the longevity of your work. It’s imperative you keep your art safe from dangers such as direct sunlight, smoke and humidity to avoid damaging your art.
- Ultraviolet light will cause severe and irreversible damage to art, textiles and photographs. When you’re hanging art on a wall, keep the curtains closed or consider installing UV filtering film on windows.
- Install smoke detectors and never hang art over a fireplace as smoke, heat and ash can cause damage, or worse, destroy your art.
- Keep your home at a constant temperature and humidity and avoid extreme fluctuations. You may want to consider investing in a digital thermo hygrometer to monitor both of these factors.
Storing your art in the right space
If you’re not placing your fine art on show just yet, you’ll need to consider the best storage options available to you. It’s not viable to leave your fine art pieces in the garage, not only are the conditions a risk to the longevity of your work, it’s also unsafe. The storage room you choose needs to fit the criteria above and have the correct space available. Is your space large enough to give your art room to breathe? You’ll also need to consider the security of your fine art and look for storage solutions that provide state of the art security facilities.
Grace provide tailored and specialist fine art and antique storage solutions with 18 dedicated vaults and 42 secure facilities within our Australasian network. Grace fine art facilities are climate controlled, monitored, and provide electronic inventory management and tracking.

No one except diehard fans of Balakrishna took Jai Simha seriously until Agnyaathavaasi bombed at the box office.
With Agnyathavasi failing miserably, focus is now shifted to Balakrishna’s mass masala Jai Simha directed by KS Ravi Kumar.
Nothing about the film has excited cinephiles, but we can never underestimate the mass power of Balakrishna.
When Mrugaraju and Narasimhanaidu clashed at the box office, not many believed Balakrishna’s film to conquer the throne and Chiranjeevi’s film to bite the dust.
Agnyaathavaasi stole all the limelight away from other Sankranthi films until its result was out. Can Balakrishna pull off a blockbuster like Narasimhanaidu with Jai Simha?
Greatandhra brings to you the Jai Simha experience and all the excitement of this gripping fare live via tweet review.
Jai Simha. UA
Story begins with Nayanathara finding her new born is missing from her hospital bed.
Scene cut to Vizag Railway station. Balakrishna enters the scene. He is carrying a baby in his hands.
As titles roll on, "Andala lokam" song is going on. The song is shot on NBK and baby boy.
Story now shifts to Kumbakonam in Tamilnadu.
Brahmanandam has entered in the story. Old style of comedy is progressing.
Balakrishna has joined as driver in Murali Mohan's house. Murali Mohan's daughter is Natasha, a drug junkie.
Brother of Kumbakonam's local gang leader Kaniyappan (Balakrishna) gets hurt in a road accident. The accident was done by Natasha but Balakrishna takes the blame on him.
Movie is totally progressing with old and outdated scenes.
Now comes "Ammakutti Ammakutti" song. Shot on NBK and Natasha.
Local ACP insults poojaris. Balakrishna teaches him a lesson. A big scene involving hundreds of Brahmins is shot well.
Nayanathara appears again. This time she is seen as Gowri, a pre-school owner in Kumbakonam.
Kaniyappan's brother dies in hospital. ACP arrests Balakrishna.
Movie is heading towards interval.
Nayanathara and Balakrishna come face to face. Twist is revealed that Nayanathara is wife of ACP. Interval.
First Half Report: Other than interval twist, movie is completely cliched. Old style stuff.
Second half begins with the flashback story of NBK and Nayanathara. 3 years back in Vizag.....
Now it is time for "Priyam Jagam...." song shot on Balakrishna and Nayanathara.
Now it is revealed that Balakrishna is a mechanic in Vizag.
Ashutosh Rana, a political leader in Vizag, vows to take kill Balakrishna as his son committed suicide when Balakrishna insults him.
A major fight sequence involving Ashutosh Rana and Balakrishna is going on.
Difference between Prakash Raj, Nayanathara's father and Balakrishna. Movie is heading towards major twist.
The reason why Nayanathara and Balakrishna broke up is established.
Another song "Yevevo....". This song on Balakrishna and Haripriya who just got married to each other.
Sentiment scenes are going on.
End of flashback. Now story is heading towards climax.
Both Kaniyappan of Kumbakonam and Vizag political leader come together to take revenge on Balakrishna.
Final fight sequence.

Greystone announced it has provided a $1,800,000 Freddie Mac Small Balance Loan to refinance Huron River Apartments in Wyandotte, MI. The transaction was handled by Cary Belovicz of Greystone Bel Real Estate Advisors and John Marr of Greystone.

Hi, I own a CBR 150R 2003 and not too long ago I found myself without a third gear. When I shift into third it feels very similar to being in neutral except for a very irritating rattling noise. If my revs are high when shifting into third the bike will vibrate very aggressively until I drop the throttle or shift into fourth. If revs are lower the bike will automatically shift me into fourth if my foot is clear of the shift lever. I'm only a kid still and my mechanical skills are limited. But can someone please explain to me some possibilities of causes and/or fixes. I found online someone saying that it could be a few gear cogs inside my transmission, but when I call Honda parts or local mechanics they have no information to offer me about them, except I can get a new gearbox for 1,600 baht and have to wait a month and a half for it to get to my location. Probably not an option but fake parts or cheap alternatives mentioned highly appreciated because I live on a Thai wage and I don't have much money to spend fixing and hiring another bike while it's getting done... What parts will I have to buy to fix it? How much will it (approximately)cost? Can I do it myself with the help of a maintenance manual? Kind regards, Shaun @ CM

Israeli Arab Poet Dareen Tatour Gets Five-month Sentence for Incitement on Social Media
Tatour, 36, was convicted of incitement to violence and supporting terrorist organizations in May
Palestinian poet Dareen Tatour was sentenced to five months in prison Tuesday by the Nazareth District court. Tatour, an Israeli citizen, was convicted in May of incitement to violence and supporting terrorist organizations, based on her social media posts.
Following the sentencing, Tatour said she was not surprised. "I expected prison and that's what happened. I didn't expect justice. The prosecution was political to begin with because I'm Palestinian, because it's about free speech and I'm imprisoned because I'm Palestinian."
Tatour, 36, a resident of the Galilee village of Reineh, near Nazareth, was arrested in October 2015 after posting, among others, a poem titled “Resist, my people, resist them."
The indictment included a translation of the poem, with the lines: "I will not succumb to the 'peaceful solution' / Never lower my flags / Until I evict them from my land."
"My trial ripped off the masks," Tatour stated in May. "The whole world will hear my story. The whole world will hear what Israel's democracy is. A democracy for Jews only. Only Arabs go to jail The court said I am convicted of terrorism. If that's my terrorism, I give the world a terrorism of love."
Tatour was arrested at time when lone-wolf stabbing attacks on Israelis were practically a daily event.. The indictment contains a translation of the poem into Hebrew and says that as of the charges being filed, it had accrued more than 200,000 views and several adulatory comments.
"The content, its exposure and the circumstances of its publication created a real possibility that acts of violence or terrorism will be committed," the indictment claimed.
After the indictment, the video gained even more exposure when Culture Minister Miri Regev posted it herself within an edited clip on her Facebook page. The edited clip was watched more than 70,000 times and received more than a thousand "likes." Beside it, Regev wrote, "Where do you think this video was screened? At a Hamas event in Gaza? ISIS in Syria? Hezbollah in Beirut? Watch and share."
The indictment included two other poems by Tatour.
One said, "Allah Akbar and Baruch Hashem, Islamic Jihad declared intifada throughout the whole West Bank and expansion to all Palestine. We should begin inside the Green Line," a post that got 35 likes. The second showed the wedding of Asra’a Abed, a Nazareth resident who was shot and wounded after drawing a knife at the central bus station of Afula, with the post, "I'm the next martyr."
After three months in detention, Tatour had been released to house arrest, with an electronic cuff. Four months later she was allowed to leave the house for two hours on weekends, if accompanied. She was not allowed to use a mobile phone or internet, restrictions which had no precedent, her lawyer, Gaby Lasky said.
Initially Tatour had denied any connection with the posts. After changing lawyers in November 2016, she admitted to publishing the poem, but claimed it had been mistranslated.
The police officer who translated it knows spoken and literary Arabic, and speaks Arabic as his mother tongue, the state claimed.
The prosecution highlighted her change in story and wrote in its conclusions that a person "confident of the justice of his path and purity of his intentions consistently admits to publishing the things attributed to him, and explains the underlying intentions. This is not how the defendant behaved." Later the prosecution said that once she admitted to the publications, Tatour cast blame on others for not understanding her properly, or causing her to act in a certain way, ostensibly innocuously, which is unacceptable."
At the time, Lasky told Haaretz that it is pathetic to put a poet on trial for a poem she wrote, based on an erroneous literal and cultural translation. "In the unfortunate case of Dareen, her poem speaks among other things about the Dawabshe family and others who were hurt by Jews. The police officer who translated the poem unprofessionally took things out of context."
Defense witnesses included Prof. Nissim Calderon, who wrote an opinion on the special status of poets, noting Hebrew poets in tsarist Russia and during the British Mandate in Palestine, such as Nathan Alterman. The prosecution argued that Calderon hadn't seen the full text, or seen it in the context of pictures of the intifada in the background.
"The trial was designed entirely to intimidate and silence Palestinians in Israel, to make them censor themselves for fear of being put on trial and criminalization of poetry," Lasky said. "When the state tries people for poetry, that derogates from the cultural richness of all society."

Without early treatment, a cavity will inevitably grow. Poor oral hygiene habits could accelerate the tooth decay. If too much tooth enamel is decayed to secure a filling, your dentist, Dr. Alfred Haeberer, might recommend restoring the tooth with a dental crown.
The process, the dentist will merely use a drill to remove all of the tooth enamel. This leaves behind a post-like abutment that encases the pulp and root of the tooth.
Your dentist will then take an impression of the area, which as the temporary crown will be removed and your new crown will be cemented into place.
If you have a tooth suffering from a large cavity, you should call (703) 433.2155 schedule an appointment at Haeberer Family & Cosmetic Dentistry.

A critically-acclaimed '3D artist' from Harrogate is bringing his literally amazing perspective on art to his hometown.
Artist John D. Wilson will be making a guest appearance at Castle Galleries on Saturday, November 7 to unveil a newly curated exhibition of his work.
In attendance between 1-4pm, John will present his much anticipated autumn collection, alongside signed limited edition and original works from previous collections.
One of Castle Galleries’ top 20 selling artists more than a decade after embarking on his career as a professional, John will also unveil a never before seen ‘mystery print’ at the show.
Born in Harrogate, Wilson, now 68, uses a complex technique called ‘reverse perspective’ to paint what’s furthest away largest onto 3D canvases.
This creates an optical illusion whereby the painting seems to to alter as the audience moves around, and to appear in reverse 3D when viewed head-on.
The ‘reverse perspective’ technique has been growing in popularity since it was pioneered by famed Pop artist Patrick Hughes in 1961.
Wilson has taken inspiration from a wide range of artists and art movements to create his own signature style of 3D paintings, most notably, from British artist L. S. Lowry whose influence can be seen in his work.

Motivational Interviewing in the Primary Care Setting
As anyone who has tried to adopt a healthy behavior or kick a bad habit can attest, change is difficult. A central challenge for many providers is persuading patients to adopt and stick with healthful changes—from losing weight or starting an exercise program to keeping up with a medication regimen or accepting alcohol or drug treatment. But tools like motivational interviewing and programs such as Harvard Pilgrim’s Lifestyle Management Program can help clinicians influence patients to make healthy changes and support patients along the way.
Motivation Interviewing Techniques
Motivational interviewing is a patient-centered method for identifying an individual’s readiness for change and enhancing motivation by exploring and resolving ambivalence about the new behavior. These techniques promote informed decision-making and encourage patients to participate in their own health care.
The principles behind motivational interviewing include:
Motivational interviewing relies on these communication strategies:
Lifestyle Management Program
Motivational interviewing techniques are a cornerstone of Harvard Pilgrim’s Lifestyle Management Program, in which our health coaches help members establish and work toward goals. With a focus on complex cases, the Lifestyle Management Program supplements the work done in a provider’s practice.
The referral process is simple: members complete a health questionnaire and those who indicate that they are interested in coaching receive an outreach call. Providers may also encourage members to complete the health questionnaire if they believe the member would benefit from the program and the additional support.
During one-on-one telephone sessions, the health coach helps interested members identify barriers to wellness and develop a healthy lifestyle roadmap, while promoting self-reliance by offering educational materials and online resources. The coach and member collaborate to establish realistic goals, set milestones, and develop a network of support.
Health coaches employ motivational interviewing to better understand the member’s personal health goals and readiness to change. “Understanding where the individual is coming from is crucial before setting a plan. You can lecture a patient about having diabetes in control but it won’t do any good until they buy in,” explains Catherine McFadyen, director of the Care and Disease Management program.
Tapping into Individual Motivation
With motivational interviewing, the aim is to engage the patient in a productive dialogue, without judgment, about her current situation and reasons for change. It’s not to talk the individual into changing. Often, a patient is ambivalent and perceives that she has valid reasons not to change. If this ambivalence isn’t adequately understood and managed, there’s a higher likelihood that the patient won’t comply with the plan and the treatment will fail.
The chances of a new behavior taking root are greater when a coach helps a member identify their individual rationale for making the change. The patient’s own reasons for changing are much more powerful motivators than outside persuasion or coercion.
As one member wrote about Lifestyle Management Program, “Together we set reasonable goals for each month, always with an eye toward what I wanted to achieve longer term. We discussed what was working well and what needed a new approach, and she helped me strategize how I could meet my family's nutritional needs, as well as my own. That sounds simple but it was not, and this was the kind of thing that had made it so difficult for me to really change my habits in the past.”
Now the member’s blood pressure is lower and she’s steadily losing weight. Better still, she feels empowered to keep improving her health. “I take pride in my modest weekly achievements. Something very important now seems obvious: I can succeed long term even if I fall back once in a while, and I don't need to spend time getting mad at myself for that as long as I start again and keep trying to move forward.”

Ever since I began this journey I have wondered how I might simply summarize for another person how I have gotten from ‘A’ to ‘B’ these past years. How would I explain how drastically my beliefs, understanding and approach to life has shifted, in order for other people to potentially benefit from my experience?
First I need to define what ‘A’ and ‘B’ are in terms who I was and who I now am – let’s call them ‘Person A’ (the previous Sandra) and ‘Person B’ (the current Sandra).
Person A:
Then, unexpectedly, my husband passed to Spirit and in the devastation that was my life, I said to The Powers That Be:
Little did I know that in that one moment I changed my entire life and destiny. So began the most incredible transformation which I am only appreciating years later. Fast-forward to today and let me describe Person B.
Person B
If any of this appeals to/resonates with you, I encourage you to make the same commitment to learning the truth about yourself and life, and working for a higher purpose. Where does one start you may ask?
What are the other little ways you begin to change once Spirit’s influence grows in your life?
I hope you are well underway in your spiritual journey. If not, I encourage you to take that bold step to a wonderful new you..

Home > Experts > Question Question Posted by: NONO | 2008/06/12 Sexy-body while breastfeeding hi Doc I'm a Mother of a 3months old baby and I'm breastfeeding(I intend to do so til she's 1yr, but I want to look good and nice and slim while enjoying breastfeeding my daugter.Any idea of any diet that can help me here, I'm currently exercising doing TABOO at home. Not what you were looking for? Try searching again, or ask your own question Our expert says: DietDoc Dear NonoCongratulations on the birth of your daughter! The fact that you are breastfeeding your little girl is one of the greatest gifts you can give your child which will influence her health and even prevent her from getting obese for the rest of her life. It is, therefore, not a good idea to use drastic diets during breastfeeding as this could dry up your milk supply. You can try using an energy-reduced, low-fat, high-fibre diet (click on 'Diet' at the top of this page, 'Weight loss', ‘Balanced diet’ and then on 'Slimming Diet' for a copy of such a diet), but please add at least one extra cup of fat-free milk or yoghurt a day to the prescribed foods to supply you and baby with adequate amounts of calcium (you need 1200 mg a day while breastfeeding). Keep up the good work with taebo and take baby for a brisk walk in her pram every day if possible to aid weight loss.Enjoy your baby

TRANSCRIPT:
This is auto-generated and may have mistakes. Please listen to the interview for accuracy.
[00:01] REENA JADHAV: Hey everyone, it is Reena Jadhav coming to you from the livelonger podcast. You know, being in kind of that late forties, mid-forties. I hear this from all my friends constantly like God, my memory. I cannot remember stuff. So we have today Dr. Steven Masley, who’s going to tell us all about how to fix our brain now. He is amazing. What I love about Dr. Masley is that, not only is he an MD, physician, nutritionist, author, creator of the number one health program for public television, but that he’s a trained chef, so we’re going to see if we can get a couple of recipes out of him on the podcast and be interviewed today. He is really dedicated and focused on motivating people to tune up their brain, their heart, their sexual performance. He is a fellow with three prestigious organizations, the American Heart Association, College of Nutrition, and the Academy of family physicians. He is all about empowering health through comprehensive assessments, lifestyle changes. His programs have been scientifically backed to deliver some great results where he is going to share and talk about. He has written a bunch of books, 10 years younger. The 30-day heart tune up and his most recent book, which is the better brain solution. Dr. Masley, welcome.
[01:21] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well I am delighted to be with you.
[01:24] REENA JADHAV: The fact that we women in our mid-forties starting kind of early forties to mid-forties to late fifties, end up having some serious brain fog issues. Why is it, what are the stats behind it?
[01:39] DR STEVEN MASLEY: It’s a really good question because brain fog is becoming more and more common. I mean we know the rate of dementia and Alzheimer’s is going to double in the next 12 years. It is already the number one most expensive disease in America today more than heart disease and more than cancer, so it is super common. It is increasing rapidly. It is like an epidemic and I think the number one cause for that is abnormal blood sugar control and people’s lifestyle choice so I really think our data shows that it is just five easy steps. Just simple lifestyle changes. People can really improve their brain function sharper, quicker, more productive, and they can prevent memory loss.
[02:22] REENA JADHAV: You talked about something very interesting in terms of the fact that there’s a link between having depression and Alzheimer’s. Talk a little bit about that.
[02:31] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, depression is you have depressed brain chemistry. It is not just. I mean there’s birth, there’s bereavement which is sad, something bad happen, your, you know, your parent died or your child was in an accident or you lost your job. Anyone should grieve over that, but depression actually means it impacts us. It impacts our brain biochemically and we lose brain performance and the same program I to help with memory has been shown in several other studies to help reverse and prevent depression as well. So if you have depression, you’re 300 to 400 percent more likely to get Alzheimer’s later in life and it makes it much more important to take steps to nourish and protect your brain. Yeah, depression is really common, especially in younger women, 30 to 50 years of age and it is really, there’s this big difference that we need to make about that.
[03:29] REENA JADHAV: What about the link between stress and brain function?
[03:35] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, brain function is its synaptic connections. We’ve got hundreds of billions of brain cells and hundreds of trillions of these connections and their nutrient dependent and if we don’t make our food and nutrient needs, our brain processing speed drops, our fitness impacts our brain processing speed and if you’d slow then we feel brain fog. So to me, I mean there is cognitive testing. You can do simple easy tests. They take about 30 minutes where we can actually measure how your brain is processing speed and we know that if you make changes you can improve that and when you improve brain processing, speed, brain fog goes away. I mean the symptoms, like you said, a couple, you walking into a room and you forget why you’re there, you’re in a conversation, you start forgetting names or words that like Awkward Julian, that everybody’s had that on occasion. But if it starts to be like regularly, okay, that is concerning, that there is something wrong with your brain performance. Uh, you know, other was. Others would be like; you have trouble finding your car in a parking lot. That is geographic memory or when you get interrupted, can you switch from one task to another quickly or when you get interrupted, is there a lag and it takes a while to get back? I mean that really hurts job performance. If you were kind of slow after you get interrupted finishing project, do you have to, when you read a paragraph in a book, do you have to reread it because you forgot what you read? I mean, so those are all important signs. I mean, so I mean there is questions you can ask just like that. Can you remember a seven digit phone number long enough to dial it? Those are all great symptoms of someone with brain fog, but the good news is we can do something about it and an average person can really improve their brain performance and that will probably save them from memory loss later in life.
[05:32] REENA JADHAV: Let’s talk about testing. So I always believed that you know, anything you can test, you can then map your improvement to those test results. And I’m often, and I’m no later on in this program, we’re going to talk a little bit about, you know, taking care of older parents, et cetera. But I know when you have parents and you say to them, Hey, you know, I feel like maybe there’s something a little off and this absolutely not. I’m absolutely fine. So it is easier to have an objective test that someone can take to really get a better sense of, all right, how is my brain function performing? What are the tests out there? Which one do you recommend?
[06:09] STEVEN MASLEY: Well there’s like I mean some people were looking at imaging to look at like Beta amyloid or blood sugar uptake in the brain. These pet scans and the challenges. I mean these things are thousands of dollars to do a test and they’re really more. They are looking at function and some to some disease. They’re looking at disease states and you could try to do something early on that 10 to 20 years before your brain scan is off. You could be doing a simple cognitive tests like on a computer- where they give you words and shapes and you you’re going through like simple all you have to push on a space key and the shift bar and you don’t even need to be able to type with 10 minute, 10 fingers to be able to do a cognitive test like we do on a. We use; it is called central nervous system vital science I do not have any stock or financial, it is in the company. I just used their test with my patients, so in 30 minutes we can look at memory, both verbal and shape, memory, attention span, brain processing speed, executive function, and get a really good idea of how someone’s brain’s functioning. You know, it’s a test that it could be anywhere from 70 to $150. It is not that expensive.
[07:23] REENA JADHAV: Wonderful and is it online or is it something that a doctor has to?
[07:26] STEVEN MASLEY: It is not online. Your company does not offer. You usually have to get it through a medical provider of some sort.
[07:32] REENA JADHAV: I see. Okay. Well, we are going to go ahead and put the information in the show notes for everybody else who is listening and interested because I think that is such a great place to start. All right, so we have established that there is a link between diet, nutrition and brain function. So let us talk about what is the ideal diet for great brain function.
[07:52] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, number one, we want to prevent elevated blood sugar levels because surprisingly enough, when your sugar levels go up, you turn off your brain. I mean you know this, but for your, for the listeners and viewers out there, insulin is the hormone that tells us to store energy. When we eat refined carbs like bread or potatoes or pasta or rice or blood sugar levels go up and then insulin pushes it into the cell to store that energy for later, but if you eat too many of those foods, your cells are full. You can’t store any more energy and they become insulin resistant brain cells turn off when the… That’s the… I mean, we have never had this problem in 100,000 years. We’ve never had too much refined carbs are too busy out hunting and gathering herbs, you know, we weren’t designed this way that we could just sit around and eat bread and potatoes and rice and Pasta all day.
[08:50] REENA JADHAV: Open it three times a day. That is exactly right,
[08:54] DR STEVEN MASLEY: And so not so your brain cells early. Shut up. We did a pet scan on someone who is insulin resistant. It looks like nothing. Whereas you healthy active, I would expect if they did a pet scan in your brain would light up like a Christmas tree. So not only do we turn the brain cells off, but we sadly, the brain cells start to die. They are not getting the energy they need and then your brain shrinks. So eating too much sugar and refined carbs literally makes your brain shrink and that’s really bad. So to me there is like 10, 12 foods that are essential for your brain. Things like green leafy vegetables, beets, dark chocolate, unhealthy fats like nuts and olive oil. Then we definitely want to get rid of sugar and refined carbs because those just turn our brain off.
[09:41] REENA JADHAV: That makes so much sense. What do you think of the Keto Diet by the way, because that I think would align with some of your recommendations?
[09:49] DR SREVEN MASLEY: So the Keto diet as you know, has recently become really popular but I have some major concerns about doing it properly, you know, and they, you know, it’s kind of an extension of a Paleo Diet, you know, but trying to be in ketosis all the time and meet your nutrient needs at the same time is super challenging and I would say less than 10 percent of people trying to do it are probably doing it properly and meeting their nutrient needs so it could be a great diet for someone with epilepsy or a major health problem like multiple sclerosis or an athlete who’s super motivated. But I actually don’t, most of my regular patients have trouble following that 24/7.
[10:33] REENA JADHAV: Absolutely I tried it for about two days.
[10:34] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Yeah. So I like the idea of partial intermittent fasting where you don’t eat like after 9:00 at night and you don’t eat till noon the next day at least 12, preferably 15 hours. And I have that on the data. I’ve been looking at it and we’ve shown in our clinic is that if you do it two or three days a week, get almost the same benefits of doing it, you know, all the time and it’s so much easier to meet your nutrient needs if you can eat more broccoli and black beans and have an apple or blueberries or other healthy foods, partial intermittent fasting two or three days a week, um, skip breakfast, stop eating after eight, 9:00 at night and don’t eat till, you know, late morning, noon the next day. I mean, that’s easy for my patients to do.
[11:24] REENA JADHAV: I’m so glad to say that because that’s what our health boot camps program is, right? So we say eat your dinner by seven and then we recommend that you don’t sort of have a breakfast, but you have a brunch of around 10, 11. That’s exactly right. And you’re right, people don’t have a hard time doing the first couple of days or just odd because you’re flick, you know, sort of moving away from sort of eating really late or eating really early. But within a couple of days they settled right into it and they say they don’t even that they’re pretty.
[11:54] DR STEVEN MASLEY: I actually, I find people could do it even immediately in their fine. I might take it the first couple times too. Real. I mean there might be surprised, realized, well I could go without breakfast and I’d be okay.
[12:04] REENA JADHAV: Yeah, exactly.
[12:07] DR STEVEN MASLEY: And I am a little just a couple of hours later. And you, I let them go till nine and they don’t eat until noon.
[12:11] REENA JADHAV: Exactly That’s…
[12:13] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Seven to ten, nine to noon, same timeframe. So really similar concept and I really liked them to load up on vegetables the night before. Especially for women. I find that when women do this kind of thing, if they’re eating like meat and grains the night before, which are acidic, they don’t feel nearly as well the next morning is that they load up on Greens, they add some alkalinity to it, and then they seem. I find they seem to tolerate it better the next day.
[12:43] REENA JADHAV: Oh, that’s a really, really good suggestion. Yeah, we do. We recommend soups pretty much vegetarian soups at night. But I liked the idea from them.
[12:51] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Yeah, exactly like beans and lots of vegetables and especially green leaf’s.
[12:55] REENA JADHAV: That sounds great. So, so you have one test that you recommend. You’ve shared some really good recommendations on what feeds the brain, what hurts the brain, what’s the worst? You mentioned sugar…
[13:06] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Sugar is number one. Resistant. And when I say sugar, I mean sugar. Any refined carb, whether it’s mashed potatoes or bread, I put them in the same category, but there’s definitely toxins out there. You know, there’s mercury and big mouth fish a third of which has mercury and all our patients when we test cognitive function, we’ve actually published in showing people who eat big mouth fish more than say three times a month. A third of them are high and it’s decreasing their brain speed. So grouper, tuna, snapper, swordfish, shark, obviously bigmouth fish they are high in the food chain and they’re higher in mercury. So, um, you know, all those Ahi tuna lovers, I get it. I do it. I wouldn’t, I don’t need it more than once a month. I just, I noticed if I check my mercury levels still behind. So, um, I try to be cautious about big mouth fish. I’m number two, another really brain toxin are nitrosamines and they’re super common, you know, a lot of people are doing paleo now and so they’re reading more deli meats and sandwich meats and hot dogs and bacon and most of those are sprinkled with nitrosamines to extend their shelf life, so they can make more profit off it. They don’t want the food to go bad. They don’t want to say you have to throw it out in 72 hours. So they sprinkle nitrosamines on them and now they’re toxic. They cause cancer, diabetes and nitrosamines. I was pretty surprised with the research to realize they’re neurotoxic. You can give rodents Alzheimer’s within a month by just feeding them nitrosamines like people would get from eating bacon every day. So, um, inorganic copper is another common toxin out there. So part of the better brain solution is to teach people about what are toxic foods out there and how can you easily avoid them.
[15:00] REENA JADHAV: What about Apple?
[15:01] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Injury your brain unintentionally?
[15:02] REENA JADHAV: Exactly. What about alcohol?
[15:05] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, that’s a real interesting one. And appears there’s like a J- shaped curve and now let me just clarify, I’m not asking any non -drinker to start drinking alcoholic drink. If you don’t drink, you probably have a good reason, but if you do drink the only alcohol, in small quantities, that I have shown that’s been shown to be helpful and that’s what we showed with the publication for my clinic. If people drink red wine, one to two servings a day, like with dinner tend, I mean they have better cognitive function, they’re less likely to get Alzheimer’s, sadly to say beer and hard liquor had no benefit. And if you drink more than three servings a day, I mean that. It’s delusional to think that’s good for you. You’re pickling your brain so they ship a little bit as good or people who can drink only that small amount in more is harm, clearly harmful. I’d definitely call excess alcohol more than three servings a day are toxin.
[16:06] REENA JADHAV: Got It. Let’s talk about the fact that there is a way to actually reverse Alzheimer’s and I’m now going to switch our conversation to some of us who may have parents that were concerned about or may have already had parents who’ve been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Sort of dealing with that. If you can share what are your insights and helping someone who’s been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s reverse it.
[16:33] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, there’s not a magic bullet. There’s not a single pill or a single food you can eat. It’s a multifactorial thing, but like I think the largest study out today is the finger trial out of Finland where they showed that if you add bright food like a Mediterranean low-glycemic Diet, Act physical activity, mental exercises, stress management, people’s cognitive function right up and they had better memory. They had less Alzheimer’s disease and memory loss over time. So, but it wasn’t just any one of those aspects of the program by itself, just the food or just the activity or just the stress Management didn’t work. Right? So it’s a comprehensive and that’s where we have a five step program. Eat the right foods to eat, what you should avoid. What are the top five, six nutrients you can’t live without? What activity to add, how to manage your stress and like we talked on those key toxins to avoid when you add those together, you can improve brain processing, speed, memory, cognitive performance. You can help reverse memory loss. I don’t mean to say, and I don’t want to create an expectation. You’re not going to take someone from with Alzheimer’s and make them brilliant, a genius. We could improve their brain function and then stopped and slowed their demise. Um, I’m not. So the more the earlier you start, the better. It’s never too early and it’s never too late. So 30 year olds and 80 year olds can improve their brain function and help prevent future loss. Um, and we can reverse some aspects of memory loss, but everybody could have a better brain who wouldn’t want to be sharper, quicker, more productive, and prevent further memory loss. Even if you have a parent like that, we can help them with a multifaceted program. And that’s why we came up with our five steps
[18:29] REENA JADHAV: And how long is typically at the program life for. So how long should someone actually follow the program to start seeing results? And is this something you recommend them as a lifetime approach?
[18:38] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, yes, I don’t. I’m mean, this is not like a diet for, okay, my daughter’s getting ready, my, you know, my sister and my daughter’s getting married and I want to lose 10, 15 pounds to fit into a basic logan. This is not what I’m talking. I’m talking about if I could help someone feel mentally sharper, quicker, more productive, they probably lose weight, they feel better, it helps prevent heart disease and shrinks artery plaque and their energy and sexual function and sleep are all better. Why wouldn’t you stick with that? And that’s really what we find. It’s trying to. I’m looking to give people a lifestyle they could follow that improves their quality of life. It’s good for all aspects of their health, improves their brain function and hopefully they would stick with it.
[19:24] REENA JADHAV: And you had some statistics for us. How well does the program do for different people?
[19:30] DR STEVEN MASLEY: So we’ve tested this in 30 to 80 year olds. Um, we’ve done hundreds of patients and we’ve put them through our five step program and the average person improve their brain processing speed over 25 percent and their attention span went up to 40 to 45 percent better. So they can focus better, they can process information quicker. Um, I mean pretty amazing in a four to 10 week period that you could get that big an improvement.
[19:58] REENA JADHAV: That’s impressive. That’s very impressive. You know, who needs this the most are our teenagers, our high school juniors and our college students.
[20:09] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Yeah, that is…I mean a really good point. We’ve never done this study, you know, with the randomized trial on adolescents, but I would, it’s always been high on my list that you and I, this is how I teach parents to raise their kids. I mean this isn’t just a diet for your grandparents or your 40 years old for you, but how we should be feeding our children to improve their cognitive performance and attention today, especially if they’re a tendency to anxiety or depression or ATD.
[20:39] REENA JADHAV: Well, you know, a study just came out, I think it was released two days ago about the incredible rise in depression and suicide amongst adolescents and that was primarily focused on high school and college students. And I’ve got a college student, I’ve got a daughter in college and I can tell you the stress that these kids are under and the way they push themselves, so between, you know, sleeping very few hours a night, do the extreme stress of doing as many aps as they want to do, do of course incorporating parties into their life as well. Um, they, it’s just a storm of for brain function I feel. And of course they’re all living on junk food to some extent. So I think we could help tremendously the kids, the teens…
[21:22] DR STEVEN MASLEY: We have seen a lot of adolescents, parents will bring it through adolescence and we’ve definitely noticed that there will do cognitive testing on um, you know, it’s a small handful but we clearly knows even my own college son here who is in college, you know, he’d said, you know, dad, I tried just eating like everyone else, junk food. And I felt terrible. I couldn’t, I couldn’t concentrate, I couldn’t do my homework. He’s in engineering school and he couldn’t think when he was eating this junk and so he’s actually eating better just because it helps him pass his courses. So…
[21:58] REENA JADHAV: He sounds very smart and clearly very, uh, thoughtful of a teenager. I think the challenge we face as a society, and this has nothing to do with just teenagers, this is adults, this is parents, this is everybody, is that the world we’re living in, we’re being bombarded with these tempting junk foods.
[22:20] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Absolutely right. I totally agree with you.
[22:22] REENA JADHAV: There is a dripping pizza or there’s that stack of pancakes or whatever it is. It’s all designed to convince us that we need that food right now whether its…
[22:32] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Addicting food, it’s addicting, it’s cravings, we got to have more of it, it’s like that concept you can’t eat just one chip. You are right, you can’t.
[22:44] REENA JADHAV: It’s designed that way. Have you found in helping people break those cravings as they start your program and those cravings kick in? What, what have you noticed that works?
[22:56] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well? We started with just a shopping list. You know, what foods should, when you go to the store, where do you put in your cart and what do you buy? I mean really basic simple stuff, you know. Yes. We want you to get colorful plant foods like green leafy. Um, if you eat one cup of Greenleaf is a day like Broccoli, Kale, your brain is 11 years younger than the average person who doesn’t eat them. Really blueberries, any of the berries, eat a cup of berries a day. Um, you know, nuts have one or two handfuls of nuts today and one or two tablespoons of olive oil and three servings of wild seafood per week, you know, like wild salmon or take a fish, good quality fish, oil fill and that, you know, green tea is really good for your brain. Yes, you can have, you know, red wine, you must have dark chocolate or cocoa, you know, every day for your brain. So it’s like giving them a shopping list of 12 foods to add that sound like, okay, that would, I could eat blueberries and cherries and dark chocolate and I, you know, that wouldn’t be that hard. And you suddenly realize they could do this with a shopping list to buy and then foods you can. And I think that’s a huge jumpstart to get people going on this. And then a nutrient lists. What are the key nutrients you’ve got to get each day? What are the steps to manage your stress? So I think those little, you know, that’s part of our five step program with the better brain solution. What, how do you actually get going and do these things? So it’s easy. Am I. What I realized is the easier we make it, the better people’s success.
[24:29] REENA JADHAV: Absolutely. We have to make it something that they can do without huge trauma to their current lifestyle because that’s what I’ve realized. If, if it requires dramatic changes, people just fall off. So it’s something that’s sort of neatly needs to fit in. And that’s sort of, what we’ve been trying to do with health boot camps of course. But this sounds incredible. You know, one of the things that I to have noticed is that if you give people a list of what to do as in go just focus on this. They forget about the stuff that they’re not eating anymore, so sort of, if you load up on the berries in the morning, your sugar cravings go down. I noticed that even for myself.
[25:07] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Exactly, have pancakes or cereals you starve by 11 o’clock.
[25:11] REENA JADHAV: Yes, exactly. So I love your idea of you load them up with what to eat and automatically their body resets and they’re not craving all the junk food that normally they would. So I’ve noticed this. If I don’t have my fruit smoothie in the morning, I’m absolutely rummaging around for sugar by around 10, 11 because my body is…
[25:30] DR STEVEN MASLEY: I’m glad you said the word cravings though, because that’s such an important concept that people think, oh, I just use will power. Well, no will power is not going to work when you have cravings. So if you’re feeling down, you eat a candy bar, your sugar’s going to shoot up and then it’s going to plummet and when it plummets, you’re going to have cravings. And Will power is not going to work. If that’s what you are counting on good luck. So yes, they are right foods, but that’s also, why I went back to chef. You know, this was an insane act in me, right. I’m a physician, I was doing research projects and I went back to chefs’ school. I did a year’s chef internship at the four seasons in Seattle, learning how to make recipes better. My goal was to how I could use these ingredients so food is easy to prepare, delicious. Your family and friends will love it and it nourishes your heart, brain and soul. That was kind of my goal in doing the chef internship and it really worked and that I learned a lot about cooking, doing the chef internship, you know the standard is, you know, white flour, you can make something taste good if you’ve got butter, sugar and white flour, well Duh, but it’s not that hard to concept to realize, okay, now if I have chocolate and greens and berries and nuts and olive oils, I can make an herbs and spices, especially Italian herbs and curry spices that have all these medicinal anti -inflammatory properties. Wow! You can make food tastes really good with them too, as long as you don’t try to make it low fat and they use the smart fats.
[27:08] REENA JADHAV: That makes a lot of sense. All right, so we are going to now go into the fun part of the show, which is recipes. So, so Dr. Masley, and what is your favorite recipe of all the recipes that you’ve learned and cooked?
[27:20] DR STEVEN MASLEY: I mean I’ll actually reach and grab my book, breakfast recipes, lunch, dinner, desserts. Where would you like to focus on?
[27:34] REENA JADHAV: Dessert of course.
[27:35] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Okay. I’ll pull up some of my favorite dessert recipes. Just as an example. I think the top two that probably come to mind would be. I mean, one of the typical things I make when we have company coming over, we’d be a berry smoothie. I would pick some fruit like blueberries or um, strawberries or a peach or something, right? That’s delicious. They can even be frozen so it can be less expensive and easier to find them and they don’t go bad. So let’s make it convenient and you take that and you’re going to simmer it in a saucepan. I’d probably had to get a little sauce going. I would use some lemon juice to it that get to go with a little tart to go with the sweet. I would add maybe a tablespoon of like some tapioca to just give it a thickener that doesn’t have a very high glycemic load sugar content. And um, and then I’m going to, you know, I’m going a little cook that for a little bit. I would definitely use some herbs like cinnamon, which helps lower blood sugar and maybe even a tiny pinch of Cayenne pepper that. Not that you would even ever do spicy, but just to you, you won’t even know. It’s, you’ll be like, there’s something missing and I can’t figure it out what it is. So that herbs and spices to go with those fruit that I’m going to bake and then sprinkle like with almonds. And then I would like toast separately, some chopped pecans or sliced almonds or something and put that on the top and then pop it in the oven and bake it for 20 minutes. And so that’s going to be like, oh. And I didn’t mention, I would usually put in port wine with that to at the alcohol comes off. We’ll get all that flavor and it’s going to thicken and add an along with the fruit and that little dash of lemon. And the cinnamon. It’s going to just… wonderful flavor.
[29:32] REENA JADHAV: It sounds delicious!
[29:33] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Second dessert, I would pick what? Chocolate Mousse. So one of my wife’s favorite dishes that I’m going to, we’re going to up, we’re going to take. And this is a to make. You can make a dairy version or you could go nondairy and use like soft tofu and put it in a blender with cocoa powder milk. Some dark chocolate. It’s got to be at least 74 to 80 percent dark, right? Don’t call it dark chocolate. And they’re a touch of grandma ne orange. This put it in a blender and oh my gosh, it is fantastic.
[30:13] REENA JADHAV: What do you use for a sweetener?
[30:15] DR STEVEN MASLEY: If I wanted to know no sugar, which is probably be the case. I mean for a holiday like New Year’s Eve, we might use maple syrup, but that’s still a glycemic load. I’d probably use Xylitol. You can’t really cook Stevia. It’d be like I’d use a half the equivalent of what they would normally cause for a recipe for sugar, I’d use half of that with Xylitol and because that’s a non. You don’t absorb it and add some sweetness and it’s really nice in the recipe and it punishes you if you overeat it, so if you over indulge on Xylitol, you get stomach cramps, so just have a small portion. It’s perfect. It’s fantastic. You don’t have any symptoms at all, but you can eat four servings at once or you’ll regret.
[31:01] REENA JADHAV: What about locater or monk fruit?
[31:02] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Monk Fruit is actually another option for sweetener I liked. I think that’s a good one or a fairly, you know, non-caloric sweetener. I think that’s a good choice.
[31:13] REENA JADHAV: Okay! What about a dinner recipe? What’s a good entree that’s also brain boost?
[31:18] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Vegetarian seafood, poultry. Let’s be like a mushroom, not pate.
[31:24] REENA JADHAV: Oh…
[31:26] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Super nice. And you want it dairy free, egg free,
[31:32] REENA JADHAV: Dairy free, eggs are okay but dairy free.
[31:33] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Okay, so a sauté mushroom So here’s my pecan nut, low recipe out of the book. So I’ll tell you an almond oil, some mushrooms, a sweet onion, little salt and pepper. Celery, Italian Parsley, oops… there’s goes port wine. I only have port wine is thinking through recipes and the whole book and I’ve already mentioned both of those. Um, if we can use eggs I would put in, but they’ve got to be cage free. Organically raised eggs, not the toxic pesticide in hormone enrich dates where they torture the chickens please. And then about a cup of Pecans or you could use walnuts or almonds, but I like pecan maybe walnut half-and-half. And uh, um, and then I would so that not in the mushroom and then, and it, if we don’t, you can make it dairy free. We would actually, again, I’ve made a dairy without any egg several times and it comes up with the egg, holds it together better. If you do eat eggs and it’s healthy protein, I would include the Yolk if they’re organic and cage free eggs. So that’s like one of my favorite vegetarian dishes. I’ve got to others like, you know, Thai stir fries and Italian dishes and Mexican dishes, you know, like stuff, Chili radio knows or I have to admit the Pecan nut loaf is my favorite vegetarian item.
[32:58] REENA JADHAV: I’m definitely going to be trying that. So what is your biggest insight from studying, researching, working with patients when it comes to brain health? What has been your biggest Aha moment? Like wow. I did not know that there was a connection there.
[33:16] DR STEVEN MASLEY: No, when I first started this out, I mean I was doing an optimal health center. We were associate aging and we were looking at um, you know, artery plaque growth and cognitive function and bone density in hormone levels and blood sugar and all these people were on oftentimes on all these meds. And we initially we started with, we were trying to predict which lifestyle choices impacted these and we pretty quickly identified there were foods in nutrient deficiencies and poor fitness levels increase your risk for everything to fall apart, your energy below you grow artery plaque, your brain speed would drop, and then we. So we started identifying from when people came in and we did these vows, what predicted optimal health and what predicted accelerated aging. And we started doing these randomized trials where we actually tried our five step program and why went whoa, those were better ways. I did not expect people to shrink their artery plaque by more than 10 percent in a year. Literally, their arteries would be 10 years younger in a year. I did not expect that. And in people whose brain got better, their heart artery plaque was shrinking. If they’re heart got back their brain got better. So it was like the same intervention, the right food, nutrients, activity, stress management and toxin avoidance would impact multiple aspects. You’re helping people felt dramatically different. They lost, I mean there. So the Aha was when you put all the right steps together, the results are big, better than one plus one plus one. They’re like two times, two times two, you know, it’s like suddenly it’s this huge benefit and it. And people stick with it.
[35:02] REENA JADHAV: Yes.
[35:03] DR STEVEN MASLEY: I mean, I keep seeing patients back. I’ve been doing this 15 years and after 15 years, my patients are still getting better over time. Almost every year we’re noticing by just tweaking it, they’re getting better and better over. They feel better than they did 10, 15 years ago. Wow. That’s pretty amazing.
[35:21] REENA JADHAV: That’s remarkable. That’s remarkable. And that’s unexperienced. I had. So when I got really sick and got better, it is because I did. I changed everything. And to your point, all the symptoms went away and they didn’t go away one by one. They sort of went in waves. It’s like, yeah, it’s, it’s the power of a good lifestyle is highly underestimated and just not, I think promoted enough. So I’m thrilled to hear you talk about the importance of this, that you know, do it all, do a comprehensive change. It’s not one thing. With that said, if there was one thing of the five, so between kinds of exercising more, sleeping more, eating better, reducing your stress. If I said to you, pick one, right? You have to pick one, which is the one that you would pick that has the biggest impact of all.
[36:18] DR STEVEN MASLEY: For me, it’s food, I mean, because if you put dirt in your gas tank it does matter what you do to the car, it’s not going to run well and that’s the easiest thing to change and that’s probably where the biggest toxic exposure is. I mean some, some people they just eat. Many people eat horribly and they don’t even realize that they think they’re following the standard American diet. They are, but it’s the sad standard American diet. It’s terrible.
[36:47] REENA JADHAV: The pyramid is wrong, you know that famous pyramid that they’ve been trying to sell us for the last couple of decades, that that pyramid is long.
[36:54] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, but you said it perfectly. They’re trying to sell us. They’re trying to sell agricultural goods. That is not a health pyramid. It’s a pyramid to sell US health products that we shouldn’t be producing.
[37:06] REENA JADHAV: Exactly and the wrong way, we’re producing them all the wrong way. So yeah, so we are here, you know, educating the listeners out there to say follow a better model of diet and we’ll see the huge results. You won’t need all those pills and medications and um, and won’t have that fatigue and exhaustion and dimension and the rest of it. Um, wonderful. So where can our listeners find you and do you, do you do consults directly? Are you on skype as well or do we have to come down to Seattle to meet with you?
[37:41] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Right now? I’m in St Pete Florida I moved from Seattle, so the better brain books available wherever books are sold, they can visit me on the website, dr. masley.dot com. I have a weekly blog. I send out weekly recipes. So Dr masley Dot Com. They can sign up, I’ll give him my shopping lifts just for opting in to see the blog. They can always dis-enroll at anytime, but yeah, between the books, they could come to St Pete Clinic for an eval or they could read the book or they could sign up and follow us online and all those are options. Um, my, my goal is to help serve people that feel better, feel fantastic and enjoy their life.
[38:23] REENA JADHAV: Thank you so much for the amazing work you’re doing. Any last parting advice to someone out there going, I need to get my brain back? What’s the one parting advice that you’d give them?
[38:33] DR STEVEN MASLEY: Well, I think a lot people procrastinate and they’re waiting to feel for something to be broken to fix it. Like people wait until they have a heart attack to do something for their heart. Well, that’s waiting too long, but with your brain it’s even actually a lot worse because by the time you notice you’re losing memory, you’re forgetful and all that, your brain is literally shrinking and it’s likely shrunk. So my. Don’t wait until you have a shrunken breading choosed. Just decide, hey, you know what? I want to feel better. I want to feel sharper, quicker, more productive. I want to prevent these problems. Take action. Start today. Don’t wait for you, your family, your loved ones. Get started right now. It’s time to feel better and have a better life and prevent some of the worst you know, Alzheimer’s, dementia. Those are the words that’s the worst disease on the planet and we can prevent it. So get started. That would be my best advice.
[39:30] REENA JADHAV: I love it! Thank you so much again for everything that you’re doing. For the rest of you out there, start now. Not Tomorrow, not later today. Start now. It’s easy. Check out the link. We’re going to put it on the video of course, and we’re for those of you who are listening to this as a podcast, check out the show notes. We’re going to have a length. You can get the shopping list as Dr Masley set up and of course this book and keep smiling. Life is beautiful. I’ll see you on another one of our shows. This is Reena signing off from health boot camps.

Hello! My roomie is having a sore throat and fever. We bought some lozenges but she swallowed one instead of sucking on it. What can we do?
Not a problem: When lozenges dissolved the mouth they wind up in the stomach. When you swallow it the lozenge dissolves in the stomach and is not a problem. Zinc lozenges are proven to help though other types will relieve symptoms. Also see if you can find Oral Health tincture from HerbPharm at a health food store and swish a dropperful in mouth (then swallow) every 2-3 hours. If it persists check for strep. ...Read more

Is true that honey is harmful to children under one year? Because when my daughter was sick a nurse told me g honey 4 sore throat i and i did.
Sometimes: The most at risk are young infants. Their digestive system is immature & susceptible to this problem. Honey can contain botulism spores that will mature in the baby gut & begin to form the botulinum toxin that can cause muscle weakness, lethargy & interfere with breathing. After they turn a year old this has not been a problem. ...Read moreSee 2 more doctor answers

My wife drank a lot of alcohol 1 st month of pregnancy. I am really worried if everything will b fine. This was the only time she had alcohol in life?
Yes: This is common and typically doesn't affect pregnancy at this early stage. Most important is that she identified that she was pregnant and i'm sure is taking appropriate steps to ensure the health of herself and the developing embryo/fetus. You didn't quantify what 'a lot' was, so difficult to answer specifically. For some women that would be 5 drinks in one setting, for others, that could be 2. ...Read more

I have a bad habit of accidently swallowing some of my mouthwash. I use listerene & a bleaching one. Today i swallowed some of both. Will i be ok?
Ethyl alcohol?: If you were ok before you swallowed the mouthwash, you will likely be ok afterward, although at your age i question whether that assumption is correct. Look, you don't need mouthwash for a clean healthy mouth, if you feel you need it, get the non-alcohol variety, and your "accidents" likely will be less frequent. ...Read moreSee 2 more doctor answers

My son inlaw just had a stroke this sat, do you think it came from all the beer and salt he use , he is only 49 years old?
Beer didn't help: When you get too hot, the first thing that happens is heat exhaustion. Very sweaty, pale face, etc with a normal body temp. If not taken care of, especially if you get dehydrated, this can progress to heat stroke. Beverages like beer can cause dehydration. Dry (as in no sweat), red face, and an elevated body temperature. Emergency! must cool off and rehydrate immediately! wear protective clothing. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer

What are my chances of getting mono if i accidentally drank out of an old water bottle that my friend used when she had mono?
Depends on variables: If any residual saliva of the previous user had long since dried (hours) or the bottle had been rinsed well or sanitized there is little chance this would pass to you. If a contaminated source was still moist, it is a possible source. Unfortunately the incubation period can be weeks so it may take some time before you know.If you had it as a kid, you are likely immune. ...Read more

YEsterday I found my 4 year old sucking on a AA battery. There were tiny dent marks but not broken. No burns. Today he has a mild fever. Related?
I would say likely: Likely unrelated, but the acid in a battery could have caused oral damage to the mouth (temporarily) that could make the child uncomfortable and cranky. If there is any chance the child swallowed the battery, X-ray and evaluation are needed immediately as there are some dangerous risks with "battery ingestion". ...Read more

Vote Coast Today
Today is primary election day and I will vote to bring back the state coastal zone management program. It worked for 30 years until our lawmakers let it run out. It seems to me that if the oil companies are out-spending the coastal mayors, fishermen, and concerned citizens 7-1 there must be a reason, and that reason probably has nothing to do with protecting the Lynn Canal fishery, or the beach Pearl and I walk on every day. Sure we share our coasts with industry, I just think the residents should have a seat at the decision making table when it comes to coastal development, just like we used to, for thirty years. Thirty big development years, I might add-- Also, there is a ballot measure to give municipalities the option of raising the property tax exemption on homes from 20,000 to 50,000 statewide.(This measure has nothing to do with the statewide senior property tax exemption, anyone can apply for this one.) Even the mayor of Anchorage is opposed to it. Dan Sullivan says it won't help the people who need a break the most-- renters. Cities and towns could also lose a critical source of revenue. In Haines, property tax pays for our school, for starters. The argument for it is to give homeowners who appeal their tax bill, a bigger break to keep up with the cost of living. On the surface, is sounds kind of great. Who likes taxes? But think about schools, libraries, EMTs-- and if they don't stir your heart strings, think about your own interests-- just who will get the exemption? Your local elected officials will decide. How will they do it? And why? If over taxation is an issue, then reduce the tax bill for everyone, don't allow exemptions for some of us, and not others.

The anime adventure also known as 'Onigamiden' soaring to Blu-ray in October has now been fully detailed.
As previously reported, Sony says 'Legend of the Millennium Dragon is planned for Blu-ray release on October 4.
From Studio Pierrot, creators of the classic 'Naruto' and 'Bleach' films, comes the stunning new anime adventure 'Legend of the Millennium Dragon.' Based on Takafumi Takada’s beloved 2-volume novel of the same name, 'Onigamiden' (in Japanese) tells the action-packed story of a 15-year-old boy named Jun Tendo who is thrust back in time 1,200 years into the middle of an ancient battle between Oni (demons) and humans. Hirotsugu Kawasaki, who previously directed 1998’s 'Spriggan' and 'Naruto the Movie 2: Legend of the Stone Gelel,' brings his unique visual flair to this high quality epic, which also features spectacular character design by Tetsuya Nishio ('Naruto,' 'Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. 2nd GIG').
The Blu-ray will feature 1080p video, a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack, and supplements include a concept art gallery.
Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is set at $45.99.
You can find the latest specs for 'Legend of the Millennium Dragon' linked from our Blu-ray Release Schedule, where it's indexed under October 4.
