Now DeepMinds AI can spot eye disease just as well as your doctor More than 285 million people worldwide live with some form of sight loss iStock goir When Pearse Keane started using optical coherence tomography OCT scanners to peer to the back of a persons eye in Los Angeles a decade ago the machines were relatively crude The devices were lower resolution they had much slower image acquisition speeds says Keane a consultant ophthalmic surgeon at Moorfields Eye Hospital and researcher at University College London From 2007 Keane spent two years studying scans from OCT machines learning to diagnose eye conditions in patients and pick out the minute details which make up sightthreatening diseases It was very time consuming laborious work Keane says OCT scans use light to quickly create high resolution 3D images of the back of the eye Modern OCT scanners create around 65 million data points each time they are used mapping each layer of the retina The threedimensional images have become commonplace for doctors diagnosing eye problems but across the NHS thousands of the scans are completed each day Its dealing with those numbers thats the issue Keane says Advertisement An automated algorithm to diagnose eye diseases from Moorfields and Googles Londonbased artificial intelligence unit DeepMind may have the potential to cut down the amount of time doctors spend diagnosing from OCT scans New research published in the journal Nature Medicine shows DeepMinds AI being taught to recognise 50 common eye problems including three of the biggest eye diseases glaucoma diabetic retinopathy and agerelated macular degeneration The AI correctly identified types of eye disease from OCT scans 945 per cent of the time The algorithm is on a par with expert performance at diagnosing OCT scans Keane says Its as good or maybe even a little bit better than worldleading consultant ophthalmologists at Moorfields in saying what is wrong in these OCT scans In a rarity for AI systems the algorithm is also able to explain how it reached a certain diagnosis and be used on more than one type of OCT machine DeepMind cofounder Mustafa Suleyman says the firm and Moorfields are now planning on using the method in clinical trials and will attempt to get a final product approved by regulators The promise of the work is to cut down on the time needed for doctors to manually inspect scans make diagnoses and refer a patient for treatment Chinas children are its secret weapon in the global AI arms race Long Reads Chinas children are its secret weapon in the global AI arms race Advertisement The researchers used two neural networks algorithms modelled on the brain to understand the OCT scans and determine what may be wrong with the eye Both networks were trained using deep learning on existing scans The first neural network was trained to spot different features of diseases in OCT scans A team of ten expert ophthalmologists and optometrists spent hours highlighting diseases on scans which were then fed to the neural network to learn from Keane says In total the AI system was trained on 14884 scans even though DeepMind had access to one million OCT images The second neural network analysed the output of the first and is able to present doctors with diagnoses and a referral recommendation The systems gives a confidence rating in the form of a percentage It doesnt just say this looks like a macular degeneration the algorithm says here are the specific aspects of the scan which we think indicate the diagnosis It marks up the scan itself Suleyman says The system was tested on a dataset of 997 OCT scans and compared with diagnoses given by eight doctors In some cases the doctors had extra information patient records and further eye images to make their decisions Our framework achieved and in some cases exceeded expert performance the researchers write in the paper The algorithms were correct 945 per cent of the time which is equal to retina specialists who were using extra notes and the OCT scans Retina specialists making diagnoses with just OCT scans were correct 67 per cent 68 per cent 109 per cent and 13 per Findings from the research are the latest use of artificial intelligence in medical scenarios In other research Stanford University computer scientists taught a machine learning system to identify deadly and common types of skin cancer breast cancer has been spotted on digital slides and one medical device has already been given approval by the US Food and Drug Administration to help detect eye problems The UK government has also included healthcare within its grand plan for AI But theres still a lot that needs to be worked out Advertisement Some of DeepMinds previous work with the NHS has faced heavy criticism for its approach to privacy In July 2017 the UKs data protection regulator said the Royal Free NHS Foundation Trust in West London had unlawfully shared details of 16 million patients with DeepMind At the time of the decision DeepMinds Suleyman wrote in a blog post that the company had underestimated the complexity of the NHS and of the rules around patient data The Royal Free and DeepMind have since rewritten data sharing agreements With Moorfields DeepMind has been paying for some of the costs of the research A Freedom of Information Act request revealed that up to August 2017 the Googleowned firm had paid the NHS body 110000 This included paying for the cost of depersonalising data and manually segmenting the eye scans Moorfields had not paid anything to DeepMind The company says it had access to more than one million historic deidentified OCT scans and some information about eye conditions and disease management Eye conditions where there were fewer than 10 cases were removed from the study as well as OCT scans where people had requested their information should not be shared DeepMinds Mustafa Suleyman In 2018 AI will gain a moral compass Artificial Intelligence DeepMinds Mustafa Suleyman In 2018 AI will gain a moral compass Pearse first became aware of DeepMind after reading WIREDs 2015 cover feature on the company He says he paid for one months subscription to LinkedIns premium membership to send Suleyman a message A week after he went for initial meetings with DeepMind and the formal partnership between the two was announced in July 2016 If the eyescanning work reaches a stage where it is used on realworld patients to help with diagnosis and treatment Moorfields will be able to use it at its 30 UK sites without paying for five years Both Suleyman and Pearse stress the new findings are only the first stage of research The promise of AIs efficiency still has a lot to prove Doctors working with IBMs Watson system which has been modified to help treat cancer have described it as providing multiple examples of unsafe and incorrect treatment recommendations IBM said Watson for Oncology is being used in 230 hospitals around the world and has supported care for more than 84000 patients Meanwhile UK startup Babylon Health which is working with the NHS Samsung and Tencent has faced criticism that its AIdriven symptom checker has missed conditions it should have recognised Babylon has said variable outcomes are possible if different symptoms are selected DeepMind and Moorfields system isnt perfect From the 997 diagnoses it was tested against there was a 55 per cent rate of mistakes There was no case where the AI said that this patient is normal when actually there was something serious going on with them Keane says adding in two cases the algorithm recommended urgent or semiurgent care when the eye was normal The error rating was lower than all the decisions created by experts except for retinal specialists who also made decisions using extra information Advertisement Suleyman says using two neural networks in the system allowed the results of both stages to be looked at closely to find why a particular diagnosis was recommended Were trying to go down through the layers of the neural network to interrogate the different representations at each layer and that is a very fundamental priority across all applications of machine learning This has realworld implications A lot of the research on AI and healthcare is not really useful in that regard Keane adds Engineers are making these algorithms that are amazingly accurate but dont have a realworld use case DeepMind and Moorfields also tested the AI system on two OCT scanners one from Japanese firm Topcon and the other from Heidelberg Engineering What I think few people appreciate is individual bits of hardware produce quite a different raw signal for the algorithm to interpret the DeepMind cofounder says Suleyman adds the algorithm being able to work on two different machines pushes the company closer to its aim of creating a general purpose AI That ambition may still be decades away but next for DeepMind and Moorfields are plans to run clinical trials of their OCT system Doctors working with patients needing eye scans will get the opportunity to test the work What we do hope is that when this is ready for deployment which will be several years away it will end up impacting 300000 patients per year Suleyman says Artificial Intelligence Science Health Share this article

Rhett Allain dot - physics 06.21.11 08 : 08 am How Much Does Your Data Cost ? Photo via Dustin Diaz Everyone needs data . But how do you get it and how much does it cost ? Cable modem , cell phone data plan , voice minutes , text messages . Really , it is n ' t easy to compare these but fundamentally they are the same thing . In fact , I believe that eventually we will just pay one fee for data and it wo n ' t be split into these silly little types . What I would like to get is a comparison of how much it costs to get your data for a mobile device . In this case , you can have three things : data ( really they are all data ) , voice , and text messages . Typically , a service provider will charge you differently for these different things . I would love to get how much each data mode costs per amount of data ( $ per GB ) . Is this easy ? No . Why ? Because you are n ' t charged a rate like this . For instance . AT&T charges $ 25 for a 2 GB data plan . In this case , I could consider that the data costs $ 12.5 per GB . However , what if you do n ' t use all 2 GB of data ? What if you just use 700 MB during that month ? Oh , So , maybe you see the problem . Here is my solution . I will look at several providers . For each , I will take a typical user and estimate how much they use and how much they pay . Then I will make a maximum data use scenario . Do n ' t worry , this might make sense after I do it . Some Starting Estimates — — — — — — — – How much data do you use ? I am really going to just have to take some guesses here . Let me create a typical person ( called Joe ) . This person has a smart phone with the following uses . ( I am ignoring multimedia messages for now ) Talks on the phone for 500 minutes a month . I totally just made this number up . Just picking 8 kbps data rate ( I know it is actually more complicated than that ) , this would be 0.0285 GB . 500 plain text messages a month . Let me pretend that that the average text message is 40 characters long . If I assume each character is 1 byte , then this would be 1.86 x 10 - 5 GB . My fake average person uses 600 MB of data ( web pages , email , songs and stuff ) . If use 1024 MB per GB , this is 0.586 GB . Now I need a power user . What is the maximum that you could use ? Oh , let me call this person Zelda . Photo via Mike Licht There are around 43,000 minutes in a month . Can you talk that long ? No . Plus if you are n ' t on AT&T you ca n ' t talk and use data . So , let me say this person talks for 3 hours a day . That would be 5400 minutes . This would be 0.309 GB . How many texts could you send a month ? What about 10,000 ? That would be around 330 a day . If each text message took 30 seconds to type , that would be almost 3 hours of texting . Ok . Good enough . This would be 3.7 x 10 - 4 GB . 5 GB of data on a phone seems like quite a bit . I have a difficult time seeing how you could get up to 10 GB on just a phone . Sure if you are streaming videos all day . Ok , I will go with 10 GB - this is Zelda we are talking about . Note : AT&T has this interesting data use calculator . Basically , you estimate how much stuff you do and it will give you a guess for how much monthly data that would be . Now for the carriers . Note that there are a whole bunch of numbers below . If you are allergic to math , skip to the bottom for some pretty graphs . AT&T — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — - Just looking at plans for individuals , what does AT&T offer ? Voice : AT&T offers so many minutes for so many dollars . If you consider this a rate - plan , how much would it cost per GB ? Let me once again assume that the voice call is 16 kbps ( total guess ) . This is the same as 1.144 x 10 - 4 GB per minute . The lowest plan gives 450 minutes for $ 39.99 ( $ 0.089 per minute ) . This means that your cost per GB would be ( I will call this r v - for voice rate ) : The 450 minute plan charges $ 0.45 for each additional minute . The 900 minute plan charges $ 0.40 for each additional minute . For AT&T ' s other plans : 450 min for $ 39.99 . This is $ 0.089 per minute or $ 1,558 per GB . 900 min for $ 59.99 . This is $ 0.067 per minute or $ 1,172 per GB ( a bargain , really ) . Unlimited ( let me use 5,400 minutes ) for $ 69.99 . This is $ 0.013 per minute or $ 228 per GB . For Joe and Zelda , this would be : Joe on the 450 minute would have to pay extra ( due to the extra 50 minutes ) . His cost would be $ 62.49 or $ 0.12 per minute ( $ 2,100 per GB ) . Joe on the 900 minute would pay $ 0.12 per minute . So , this is the same rate as above . Zelda on the 450 minute plan would not be pretty . She would have almost 5000 minutes overtime for a total cost of $ 2287 . This is $ 0.42 per minute ( $ 7353 per GB ) . Zelda was also go over minutes on the 900 minute plan . It would cost her $ 1860 . This is $ 0.34 per minute or $ 5952 per GB . Texting : Really , there are two options here . You can pay $ 20 for unlimited text messages ( call this plan A ) , or $ 10 for 1000 messages a month ( $ 0.1 per additional message ) ( plan B ) . So , how much would this cost ? Let me break this into 4 cases . Joe on both plans and Zelda on both plans . Joe on plan A : $ 1.08 MILLION per GB . Joe on plan B : $ 538,000 per GB . Zelda on plan A : $ 54,000 per GB . Zelda on plan B : Note that she will go over her limit . This means she will pay $ 10 for the first 1000 messages . If she sends 10,000 total , she would have to pay 10 cents for the other 9,000 messages . The total cost would be $ 910 which would be $ 2.5 MILLION per GB . Data : It seems there are three plans . A ) $ 45 for 4 GB plus $ 10 per GB over . B ) $ 25 for 2 GB plus $ 10 per GB over . C ) $ 15 for 200 MB . How much would this cost Joe and Zelda ? Joe A : $ 76.80 per GB . Joe B : $ 42.67 per GB . Joe C : Here , he will go over the 200 MB limit . The rule says you get another 200 MB for $ 15 so his cost would be $ 45 . $ 76.80 per GB . Zelda A : Of course she goes over the limit on all of these plans . For A , she will pay $ 105 for $ 10.50 per GB . Zelda B : She pays $ 105 again . $ 10.50 per GB . Zelda C : 10 GB of data is 10240 MB . This means she would have to buy 52 " blocks of 200 MB " for a cost of $ 780 . This would be $ 78 per GB . Verizon — — — — — — — — — — — — — — Voice : It seems like their most common plan is 900 minutes for $ 59.99 and $ 0.4 for every minute over . Verizon sort of makes this difficult as they bundle voice minutes and text . Let me just go with the above plan . How much for Joe and Zelda ? If you use the whole time allowed , that would be the same as AT&T ( $ 1,172 per GB . ) Joe would only use 500 minutes of this . He would pay $ 0.12 per minute or $ 2,100 per GB ) . Zelda would go over her minutes . She would have to pay $ 1,860 or $ 0.34 per minute . This would be $ 5952 per GB . Texting : I am not sure what to do about texting here . You could pay $ 79.99 for 900 minutes plus unlimited text messages . So . . .how do I separate voice and text ? Really , I should n ' t have even done the stuff above . Ok . Here is what I am going to do . The $ 59.99 plan has $ 0.2 per text message . There I have two plans . How much would data cost for Joe and Zelda ( not including internet data ) ? Joe Plan A : It is the same as above except that he also has 500 text messages . This would cost $ 100 . Total price per GB would essentially be $ 5,602 per GB . Joe on Plan B : Joe ' s total cost would be $ 79.99 . This would be $ 2,801 per GB . Zelda on Plan A : This would be the same as for just voice ( essentially ) . Oh sure , she gets all those text messages for free . Big deal , that is just a very very very small amount of data . So , it will still be $ 5952 per GB . Data : Verizon offers two options . $ 10 for 75 MB or $ 29.99 for unlimited . Joe on the $ 10 option would cost $ 80 . This would be $ 136.51 per GB . Joe on the unlimited plan would pay $ 51.18 per GB . Zelda on the $ 10 plan is just silly . It would cost her $ 1370 for $ 137 per GB . Actually , this is about the same as Joe - so maybe not so silly . Zelda on the unlimited plan would cost her $ 3.00 per GB . T - Mobile — — — — — — — — — — — — T - Mobile , I am going to do something special for you . You have too many plans , so I will make some graphs . First , they offer unlimited minutes unlimited text with different data plans . Since these plans all have the same voice + text , it should say something about the data plans . Let me write the monthly bill like this . The B is your monthly bill ( in $ ) . The r v the rate that you pay for voice ( in $ per GB ) and the V is the amount of voice data you use . I guess you can see the pattern for both the text data and the data - data . For the first set of plans , voice plus texting is constant . So , I can write the bill as : Where the C is some constant . Ok , so here is plot of the price per month versus the data plan . From this plot we can see that the y - intercept is $ 65.33 and the slope is $ 5.42 per GB . You can also see that the jump in price from no data to 200 MB is crazy out of proportion . So , the $ 65.33 must be how much you pay for unlimited voice and text . T - Mobile also offers different data plans for 500 minutes of talk . This also has a constant for for voice plus text , but it is a different value . Let me call it K . Here is that plot . This has the same slope , but an intercept $ 10 less . So , I guess going from 500 minutes to unlimited minutes costs $ 10 . T - Mobile also offers a plan with 500 minutes , no data , no texts for $ 39.99 . This must indicate that unlimited texting is $ 10 a month . Ok . Now for Joe and Zelda . Let me just pick a plan for each of them and figure out how much they pay for data . Joe : First , for Joe . Since Joe does n ' t use that much data and does n ' t talk more than 500 minutes , he will get the $ 69.99 plan . How much data does he use ? He has 0.0285 GB for voice , 1.86 x 10 - 5 GB for text messages and 0.586 GB for internet stuff . This is a total of 0.614 GB . His total rate is $ 114 per GB . If I assume his texting is $ 10 , then he pays $ 537,000 per GB for text data . From the graphs above , it seems like internet data costs $ 5.42 per GB . From these two , I can determine the voice rate . 2 GB of data would cost $ 10.84 and another $ 10 for texting . This means $ 49.15 is for the 500 minutes of talking ( $ 0.098 per minute ) . This is an equivalent of $ 1716 per GB . Zelda : Zelda is going to get the biggest plan . Zelda uses a total of 10.309 GB for a cost of $ 119.99 . This is $ 11.54 per GB . Since Zelda pays the same $ 10 for texting , but uses much more , she pays $ 27,000 per GB . How much does she pay for voice ? Well , $ 10 for texting and $ 54.20 for data then $ 55.79 for the voice data ( $ 0.010 per minute ) . This would be $ 175 per GB . Home Data — — — Let me also look the data you get for your home network - just your internet use . How much do you use and how much does it cost . I am just going to take stab in the dark . If you have kids and they watch streaming videos , maybe you can get up to 10 GB a month for your home network . Sure , it could be lower or higher , but this should be a good starting value . I suspect if you averaged all USA home internet data , it would be less than How much would this cost ? There are so many plans and providers , it is difficult to say . Let me just look at two - AT&T U - Verse ( since that is what I have ) and Comcast cable modem . AT&T U - Verse lists internet only plans from $ 20 to $ 50 per month . Let me go with the $ 30 a month plan . This means you would be paying $ 3 per GB for your data . Comcast seems to have similar prices for just internet - but I had trouble getting a list . I think it should be around the $ 2 - $ 5 per GB range . Fed - EX Internet — — — — — What if I wanted to transfer 2 TB of data ( 2048 GB ) by shipping a 2 TB hard drive . What kind of data rate would this cost ( per month ) ? Just to be crazy . First , I would have to buy a drive . Amazon has a 2 TB for $ 80 ( shipping weight of 2 pounds ) . So , I would get this drive and I would transfer my data . How long would this take ? If I can get a data transfer rate of 500 MBps , that would be around 1 hour . I think that is crazy ( but what do I know ? ) . Let me say it takes 5 hours to get my data on the drive . Next , I need to ship it . Suppose I want to send it from New York to L.A . FedEX lists a 2 pound package delivered overnight as $ 103.69 . It says delivery by 8 : 00 AM ( I guess that is Pacific Time ) . Also , not sure about when I can drop it off . Let me just say that the total transit ( from door to door ) is about 12 hours . What is the price per GB ? Simple , 2048 GB divided by the cost of $ 183.69 gives $ 11 per GB $ 0.09 per GB ( thanks @ perry ! ) . What kind of data speed would this be ? Looks like about 48 MBps . Graphs — — This is probably the part you are waiting for . How can you compare these rates if you do n ' t have a graph . First , since the data is all unorganized above let me just show some stuff for AT&T . This is a plot of the data cost per GB for voice , text , and internet data . Since there were multiple plans , I used the ones that gave the best price . Yes , the vertical axis is a log scale . Otherwise you would only see the cost of texting . Joe sure is getting screwed on texting . Now to compare all the carriers ( and my estimate for home data ) . In order to make things a little easier , I combined voice and texting together . So , I put the total cost of voice + texting over the data for voice and texting . Oh , there is no value for home voice - I left that off . Maybe you do n ' t like graphs with log scales . I get it . Let me put this one other way . Suppose you take your voice plus text data that gives you the best rate ( Zelda on T - Mobile pays $ 212 per GB ) and the most expensive data plan for Zelda is $ 10.5 per GB . If you had just $ 1 to spend on data , you could get 4.8 MB of data . That is like 1 , maybe 2 mp3 songs . For the same dollar with the internet Final Comments — — — — – What if you lived in a house that used water and your water company had a plan like this : For drinking water , you pay $ 10 per month . For watering your lawn , you pay $ 0.3 per hour . For water used in your dishwasher , you pay $ 0.4 per gallon . This is the same thing . Data is data . Oh , but voice data on the network gets different priorities and stuff . Sure , but you can also do Skype calls over your internet connection . You can do texting over your internet connection with google voice ( and other services ) . It is possible to only use your internet data on your phone . Pre - Emptive Comments : — — — — — — — Yes , it is time for my responses to your comments BEFORE YOU EVEN ASK . So , are n ' t you really saying that we should have metered - bandwidth just like electricity and water ? Response : Well , I do n ' t know if I would like that . I suspect that we would all end up paying less . However , people would be less likely to watch my awesome youtube videos if it would actually cost them more . Your estimate for the voice data rate is completely wrong . You failed to include the adjustable rate due to multiple traffic sources . This is especially true for CDMA . Response : Oh . Sorry . Dude . Get a life . Seriously . Who cares . Just pay the man and use your phone . Who has time for all this maths . I get it . You do n ' t like my post . Clearly this different rate problems shows that there a government conspiracy . By making voice and texting so relatively expensive , they are suppressing our ability to communicate and find the truth . In this case , the truth is that the government is actually run by aliens disguised as humans . Thanks . This will be a topic of a future blog post . What about data caps for home internet usage ? You did n ' t consider those . You are correct . You did n ' t look at Sprint . Again , correct . Why did n ' t you include MMS ( Multimedia Messaging Service ) in your data rate calculations ? That is a very valid point . However , you have to draw the line somewhere . Adding MMS to the calculation would make it a bit more complicated . I really am not sure how often people send MMS . You do realize that Apple is going to come out with the iMessage system which will essentially replace SMS and MMS , right ? Yes , this is true . Except that it seems to only be true for Apple devices . It would be super awesome if Apple made this compatible with all devices . Who says " super awesome " ? Is n ' t that sort of lame ? I say it . So say we all . # iPhone # models # phones View Comments

Share Jonah Lehrer science 113011 1137 am The Psychology of Nakedness Editors Note Portions of this story in italics below were found to come from LiveScience The human mind sees minds everywhere Show us a collection of bouncing balls and we hallucinate agency a glance at a stuffed animal and we endow it with a mood Im convinced Siri doesnt like me The point is that we are constantly translating our visual perceptions into a theory of mind as we attempt to imagine the internal states of teddy bears microchips and perfect strangers Most of the time this approach works well enough If I notice someone squinting their eyes and clenching their jaw I automatically conclude that he must be angry if she flexes the zygomatic major thats what happens during a smile then I assume shes happy The point is that a few cues of body language are instantly translated into a rich mental image We cant help but think about what other people are thinking about But this intricate connection between mind theorizing and sensory perception can also prove problematic For instance when people glance at strangers who look different perhaps they dress funny or belong to a different ethic group they endow these strangers with less agency a fancy term for the ability to plan act and exert selfcontrol Or consider a 2010 fMRI experiment that found that when men glance at sexualized women they exhibit reduced activation in parts of the brain typically associated with the attribution of mental states These are obviously terrible habits a hint of cleavage shouldnt make us care less about someones feelings nor should a different skin tone but we mostly cant help it We judge books by the cover and minds by their appearance We are a superficial species And this brings me to a fascinating new paper by an all star team of psychologists including Kurt Gray Joshua Knobe Mark Sheskin Paul Bloom and Lisa Feldman Barrett The scientists nicely frame the mystery they want to solve Do peoples mental capacities fundamentally change when they remove a sweater This seems absurd How could removing a piece of clothing change ones capacity for acting or feeling In six studies however we show that taking off a sweateror otherwise revealing fleshcan significantly change the way a mind is perceived In this article we suggest that the kind of mind ascribed to another person depends on the relative salience of his or her bodythat the perceived capacity for both pain and planned action depends on whether someone wears a sweater or tanktop In order to understand why sweaters and tanktops influence the kind of minds we perceive its important to know about the different qualities we imagine in others In general people assess minds and it doesnt matter if its the mind of a pet iPhone or deity along two distinct dimensions First we grade these minds in terms of agency Human beings have lots of agency goldfish less so But we also think of minds in terms of the ability to have experience to feel and perceive The psychologists suggest that these dual dimensions are actually a duality and that theres a direct tradeoff between the ability to have agency and experience If we endow someone with lots of feeling then they probably have less agency And if someone has lots of agency then they probably are less sensitive to experience In other words we automatically assume that the capacity to think and the capacity to feel are in opposition Its a zero sum game What does all this have to do with nakedness The psychologists demonstrated its quite easy to shift our perceptions of other people from having a mind full of agency to having a mind interested in experience all they have to do is take off their clothes Take the first experiment by Gray et al which showed 159 undergraduates a variety of photos Some of these photos were of an attractive female named Erin appearing in either a headshot or a bikini Other students looked at a handsome man named Aaron glancing at either his face or sculpted bare chest After looking at these pictures and reading a brief description of ErinAaron subjects were asked to evaluate the mental capacities of the person They answered six questions which took the form Compared to the average person how much is Erin capable of X The X was filled in by various agencyrelated capacities such as selfcontrolacting morally and planning and a slew of experiencerelated capacities such as experiencing pleasure experiencing hunger and experiencing desire Participants answered these six questions on a 5point scale from 1 Much Less Capable to 5 Much More Capable It turns out that a glimpse of flesh strongly influences our perception of ErinAaron When the pictures only showed a face they had lots of agency But when we saw their torso we suddenly imagined them as obsessed with experience Instead of being good at selfcontrol they were suddenly extremely sensitive to hunger and desire Same person same facial expression same brief description but a hint of body changed everything In another experiment the researchers varied the volunteers mindsets sometimes asking them to look at photos as if they were on an onlinedating website focusing on attractiveness and sometimes asking them to look at the photos as if they were hiring for a professional job focusing on the mind Once again thinking about how sexy and cute someone is those are bodily attributes led students to endow them with more experience and less agency The opposite held when people were asked to evaluate intelligence and efficiency This research helps to clarify a longstanding debate about what happens we look at other bodies Kant for instance argued that sexual love makes of the loved person an Object of appetite as soon as that appetite has been stilled the person is cast aside as one casts away a lemon which has been sucked dry In other words looking at a naked person filled us with sexual desire and that desire induced a form of mindblindness Instead of seeing the individual as having agency he or she became a means to an end nothing but a vessel for our this which found that women are far more likely to appear in magazine advertisements as an attractive body while men are typically represented by their faces But the psychological reality turns out to be a bit more complicated While seeing a body reduces perceptions of agency it actually enhances perceptions of experience As a result Gray et al argue that objectification is a misleading term The idea that a body focus can lead to both decreased and increased mind stands in contrast to the term objectification because it suggests that people seen as bodies are not seen as mindless objects but instead as experiencers someone more capable of pain pleasure desire sensation and emotion but lacking in agency In other words focusing on the body does not lead to dementalization but to a redistribution of mind Of course this doesnt mean that the redistribution of mind cant do damage If youre a female applying for a job the sometimes sexist tendency of men to focus on the body will unfairly diminish perceptions of agency and intelligence you will be punished for having breasts Although the woman wont be literally objectified the redistribution of mind will still make her much less likely to be hired This work also raises important philosophical questions Ever since Descartes its been suggested that people are natural dualists dividing the world into an immaterial realm full of souls and a physical world full of objects This simple framework however appears to be a bit too simple Instead the psychologists propose that humans are actually Platonic dualists following Platos belief that there are two distinct types of mind a mind for thinking and reasoning and a mind for emotions and passions Whats surprising is how easily we switch between these different mental capacities All it takes is a peek of skin PS Totally speculative musings I wonder how the invention of clothing influenced our theories about the human mind Did we become more focused on human agency And how does this research possibly explain the influence of climate on cognition

Nathan Mattise culture 12.08.11 06 : 30 am Marty McFly ' s Original Girlfriend Goes Back to the Future Melora Hardin lost the role of Marty McFly ' s girlfriend in Back to the Future when Michael J . Fox landed the lead role . * Photo : * Michael J . Fox was n ' t supposed to be Marty McFly . The role originally belonged to Eric Stoltz , a hot young actor who got booted from the movie after weeks of footage were shot . Sci - Fi Topics — — — — - Doctor Who Lost Episodes The First Japanese Monster Movie Project Black Angel , the Lost Camelot of Geekdom Stoltz was n ' t the only loser in this Hollywood story : Melora Hardin , the actress originally hired to play the skateboarding protagonist ' s girlfriend , also lost the gig when Stoltz got the hook . Weeks of footage featuring Stoltz was shot and then went missing , but a few clips surfaced last year on the 25th - anniversary bundle . Fans of the movie – including J.J. Abrams , who gave a shout out to the original version of in his TV series Fringe – continue to demand more of the lost footage . But even if more is recovered , you wo n ' t see Hardin , who you might know from her work on Monk and The Office . Marty McFly ' s girlfriend did not appear much in the movie ( " How ' bout a ride mister ? " ) , and Hardin was dismissed before she had a chance to shoot a single scene in the role of Jennifer Parker . " Eric and I met before and I always wanted to work with him , " Hardin told Wired . com . " When we read together , we had great chemistry . I got the part and was so happy , it would have really been my first big movie . It was supposed to be a two - picture deal – they already had the future idea for Back to the Future Part II and knew this character was going to be in it . Even though the script was completely secret , you had to sign a deal for both . " As the story goes , Stoltz did n ' t bring the kind of humor to the Marty McFly role that director Robert Zemeckis envisioned . The helmer ultimately decided to scrap five weeks of shooting and recast the lead role . The rest is history , and Hardin was n ' t meant to be a part of it . " I just remember getting a phone call in my parents ' kitchen , Bob Gale and Zemeckis both called me , " Hardin said . " They said , ' Unfortunately we had to let Eric go and we think you ' re too tall for the new guy we cast . His name is Michael J . Fox , but you ' ll be towering over him . This has nothing to do with you , we think you ' re lovely . ' I burst into tears . " Her experience only got as far as publicity photos . Hardin says she might still have a proof sheet – possibly slides of those early press materials . Still , she said is n ' t sad about the missed opportunity ( and is n ' t retrofitting a DeLorean with a flux capacitor in the hope things could work out differently ) . With projects on the way like TBS ' s upcoming The Wedding Band and a possible directorial debut in 2013 , Hardin ' s excited about her future no matter how played out . " I think when you ' re not in the movie , you ' re not in the movie , " Hardin said . " Ultimately , it would have been great I ' m sure . At the same time , my path has been pretty great and everything you do alters what comes next . Maybe it would ' ve changed some stuff , but who knows .

Jason Paur Autopia 06.01.12 2 : 43 pm The World ’ s Largest Boeing Takes Flight Boeing ' s largest airplane began passenger service today as Lufthansa enlisted the service of the new 747 - 8 Intercontinental on a flight from Frankfurt , Germany , to Washington , D.C. The newest 747 is a bigger , quieter and more efficient version of the iconic jumbo jet that first flew passengers under the Pan Am banner back in 1970 . The 747 - 8I uses much of the same technology found on the 787 Dreamliner , along with an all - new wing and engines . One of the first changes airplane aficionados will notice about this newest 747 is the iconic hump and its stretched profile . The fuselage has been stretched around 18 feet compared to the 747 - 400 that preceded the 747 - 8 . The extra length allowed Boeing to add about 50 more seats for a total of 467 in the standard layout . Lufthansa opted for a much more spacious seating setup for its configuration , utilizing just 362 seats in total . One of the main reasons for the reduced seating capacity is the increased use of new lay - down business class seats filling the top deck on the 747 . And for passengers who want a positively plush experience , Lufthansa offers just eight first class seats in a closed - off section at the nose , with luxuries usually reserved for private jets . Additionally , Boeing made improvements for the pilots . The flight deck is a familiar place for any Boeing jumbo jet pilot and the transition for an existing 747 pilot requires only three days . The latest avionics are displayed on multiple glass panel displays in the cockpit and a partial fly - by - wire flight control system means the airplane that first flew more than 40 years ago is no Luddite . For those operating the new 747 - 8 , the most important improvements may be the engines and aerodynamics . The new wing and four engines suspended beneath it mean much better efficiency . Boeing says the new jet uses 15 percent less fuel than its predecessor and uses 11 percent less fuel per passenger than the Airbus A380 . For most passengers the important things are on the inside . And we recently had a chance to walk through Lufthansa ' s new baby before it left Boeing ' s home airport next to its production center in Everett , Washington . We had a look throughout the plane , but being aero - geeks , we wanted to start up in the cockpit . Cockpit Boeing ' s traditional yoke control is still the standard in the cockpit of the new 747 . The cockpit is dominated by the five large glass panel displays in front of the pilots , as well as a sixth larger display between the pilots that serves as the electronic flight bag displaying charts , manuals , and flight planning information . Power Levers These four simple levers command the General Electric GEnx - 2B67 engines . Push forward on takeoff and you have 269,600 pounds of thrust accelerating you down the runway . But as powerful as the engines are , they use much less fuel than most of today ' s mills , particularly for that kind of thrust . And just as importantly for intercontinental travelers , they ' re much quieter . The new 747 - 8 has a noise footprint 30 percent smaller on the ground than the 747 - 400 . Flight Computer Navigation and other flight information is entered into the flight data computer in the center console . Economy Seating Lufthansa ' s 262 economy seats are made by Recaro . At first glance they might not look much different than a typical economy seat , but the company seems to care about those stuck in the cheap seats . The new economy buckets are significantly slimmer than those typically found in the back , but while seat comfort is n ' t changed by the reduced size , leg room is . Recaro worked with university researchers to optimize the design of the slimmed - down seats and maximize their comfort . The new seats also save weight over Economy Seating Screens While you ' re still packed into an ocean of seat in economy , every seat back in Lufthansa ' s 747 - 8 has an in - flight entertainment system – even better to while away a long flight across the Atlantic . Legroom for All ! At 5 - foot - 10 we had no problems getting comfortable . Yes , a Bottle Opener This being a German airplane , a bottle opener comes standard in the galley . No need to BYOBO . Stairway to Heaven ( ish ) The new 747 - 8 does n ' t have the spiral staircase . Instead , a straight set of steps lead to the upper deck where business class seats are located . Business Class Each business class seat is paired with another passenger to form a " V " shape . Lufthansa says the layout allows passengers to face forward during the flight , while still maximizing shoulder room . Nap Time Biz Style Each of the business class seats converts to a fully horizontal sleeping position . The feet of each passenger are relatively close to the other ' s , but there ' s a divider between the two footrests . The sleeping surface spans some six and a half feet in length , good enough for most anybody aside from an NBA dunker . First Class The real luxury is found up front on the main deck in first class . Just eight passengers enjoy their own section of the airplane and do n ' t have to share much of anything other than the air around them . The Lap of Airborne Luxury Each seat has its own area with a desk and TV , along with plenty of room to stretch . Fit for a King ( maker ) When it comes time to sleep on your trans - Atlantic flight , the first class seats convert into beds that are usually only found on the nicer private jets . If there ' s nothing good on TV , you have four windows you can look out during your flight . Meet Joe Stutter At 91 , Joe Sutter has n ' t quite retired . The father of the 747 still comes into the office a few times a week and talks proudly about the airplane he helped design back in the 1960s . Photos : Jason Paur / Wired Air Travel Aviation

He ' s only created the first platform devoted to sharing the blueprints online for free to anyone who wants one , anywhere in the world , at any time . Wilson and his group of amateur gunsmiths , known as Defense Distributed , are also currently working on producing what may become the world ' s first fully 3 - D printed gun , which they call the " Wiki Weapon . " If it ' s successful , and on a long enough timeline , it could change the way we look at guns — and make They came for it straight up , " Wilson told Danger Room after it happened . " I did n ' t even have it out of the box . " He ' s been questioned by the Bureau of Alcohol , Tobacco and Firearms over concerns he may violate federal law . Wilson has since sought a firearms manufacturers license from the ATF , which has yet to be approved , and has secured access to printers from a sympathetic company in the Austin area , plus a range in San Antonio where the group tested its first prototype . That prototype only lasted six shots , but the possibilities being introduced are huge . What happens to gun control when anyone can download and print a gun with their computer ? Wilson and the Wiki Weapon project have also become something of a test case for how far a group can push those legal limits . " It is just a matter of time before these three - dimensional printers will be able to replicate an entire gun , " Rep . Steve Israel ( D - New York ) said in December while urging for a renewal of the Undetectable Firearms Act , which outlaws guns that can defeat airport metal detectors . Josh Horwitz of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence , wrote : " The Wiki Weapon project is not the work of a dispassionate techie seeking to push the outer limits of modern technology . Instead it is a blatant , undisguised attempt to radically alter our system of government . " That may actually be true . " How do governments behave if they must one day operate on the assumption that any and every citizen has near instant access to a firearm through the Internet ?

Then along came a group of cybersecurity researchers who systematically identified each of Washington ' s malware projects — and in so doing , rendered the Stuxnet , Flame , and Duqu espionage programs useless . A great many of those researchers now work for Eugene Kaspersky , the Russian cybersecurity mogul who runs one of the planet ' s largest and most sophisticated malware - fighting firms .

But there ' s more to Kaspersky . A longtime ally of Russia ' s secret security services , Kaspersky supplies technical too much freedom " online and pushed for additional government controls over social networks , which he blamed in part for his son ' s abduction . A few months later , Moscow passed a new bill banning wide categories of websites and introducing new surveillance techniques to Russian telecom firms .

WIRED Staff gear 09.15.17 04 : 08 pm How to Back Up All the Text Messages on Your iPhone Mat and I are BFFs on SMS . Photo by Josh Valcarcel / WIRED If you ' re like most iPhone users , when you upgraded to the newest version of iOS , Apple automatically migrated your settings , apps , and text messages . While there are benefits to wiping your phone and starting over — c ' mon , you do n ' t really need all those apps — there ' s also the possibility that you might lose valuable info hidden within your text messages . All those short missives you ' ve written are mostly ephemeral , but some of them can be important , especially if you need them as proof in a dispute . Even if you just want to save your priceless nuggets of wit , you should be able to . Apple — frustratingly — offers no easy way to export your texts and iMessages , and it should . Here are the best workarounds currently available . The File Is in the Computer Apple saves your text messages in its iPhone backups , whether they ' re saved locally on your PC or they ' re part of an iCloud backup — which you should have . That ' s good ! Unfortunately , they ' re not separated out . However , you can access them through the filesystem . If you back up locally on an Apple machine , you can find the file under Library > Application Support > MobileSync > Backup . There should be multiple folders there , each with a different backup image of your phone . Each of the folders should have a file named : 3d0d7e5fb2ce288813306e4d4636395e047a3d28 . mddata . Those are your texts , in SQLite database form . On a Windows machine , you can find that file in C : \ Users \ [ USERNAME ] \ AppData \ Roaming Unfortunately , you ca n ' t open up that file in a text editor — you ' ll either need a SQLite editor or a special third - party tool . But at the very least , if you copy that file and keep it somewhere safe , you ' ve got an archive of your text messages . Here ' s an online service where you can upload that file and download the content and metadata in either PDF or CSV form . Of course , it ' s totally up to you whether you want to give some old website access to your private messages . There ' s an App for That Many different programs can not only decipher the SQLite file Apple uses to store SMS messages but can also simplify finding and archiving them . PhoneView is commonly recommended for Mac , and CopyTrans seems to be the application of choice among Windows users . There ' s a variety of similar utilities . Most of them cost between $ 15 and $ 30 , and there does n ' t seem to be a free , open source option that ' s " good enough " to have popular appeal . I favor iExplorer , which we ' ve covered in the past . It costs money , but the demo version will allow you to read through the .mddata file and copy / paste the text . If you want to export the messages into a PDF or text file , you ' ll have to pay . Quick n ' Dirty If you ' re using the texts to actually settle a dispute , you ' ll probably want to just take screenshots . ( That ' s holding down the sleep / wake and home buttons at the same time . ) Scroll down to the most recent messages in the conversation in question . Screenshot . Scroll up . Repeat about a thousand times . Sure , it will take time , but it ' s the only solution you can do completely on your iPhone without a computer , and it ' s most likely what a lawyer I , Message To this point , we ' ve been treating SMS and iMessage as the same protocol , because the aforementioned methods cover both . But if you sync iMessage on your Mac and your iPhone , your computer should get the same iMessages your phone does and save them in the Messages chat logs . You can print a complete conversation in the Messages app or find the chat logs in Library > Messages > Archive . Of course , this requires that the person you ' re corresponding with also uses Apple products . Score One for Android This is one of the many circumstances where the openness of the Android ecosystem results in increased functionality on the device . Because Android allows a wide selection of non - system apps to send and receive SMS messages , there are a variety of easy archival apps that run on your phone itself . SMS Backup & Restore is simple , well - reviewed , and most importantly , free . Start there . This post was updated on September 15 , 2017 . It was originally published on November 5 , 2013 by Kif Leswing . iPhone , You Phone Your iPhone has all kinds of sensitive and important data , which is why you should know how to back it up You probably do n ’ t want to talk with everyone that calls you .

Matt Simon science 05.02.14 06 : 30 am Absurd Creature of the Week : This Marsupial Has Marathon Sex Until It Goes Blind and Drops Dead When antechinus makes eyes , run . Something terrible is about to happen around you . Photo : Gary Cranitch , Queensland Museum In the forests of Australia , every year just before spring , there erupts a sexual frenzy unlike any other on Earth . It ’ s bigger than an ultra - romantic Neil Diamond concert , bigger even than spring break in Cancun . Here a tiny hyperactive marsupial called antechinus sprints around mating almost non - stop for an exhausting three weeks , with single romps lasting as long as 14 straight hours . Males relentlessly bound from partner to partner , as massive hormone releases in their bodies cause their immune systems to crash and their fur to fall out . They bleed internally . Some males even go blind , yet still stumble around the leaf litter hoping for one last tryst . In a few short weeks , every single male lies dead , leaving the females to raise their offspring . And so it seems that in perpetually dangerous Australia , even the sex can kill you . For these three weeks of sexual kamikaze , antechinus males are concerned with nothing – absolutely nothing – other than mating with as many females as they possibly can . Ecologist Andrew Baker of Australia ’ s Queensland University of Technology , who studies these critters ’ astonishing habits , has even picked up a copulating pair , who ignored him entirely and went about their business in his hands . “ It ’ s pretty frenzied , ” said Baker . “ There ' s no courtship or anything like that . The males basically just grab the females Driving males to such feats are astronomical levels of testosterone . Think of an MMA fight wrapped in an Insane Clown Posse concert wrapped in the Insane Clown Posse playing during an MMA fight . While the hormone mobilizes all the sugars in the antechinus ’ body so it does n ’ t need to feed for the three - week orgy , it also glitches the mechanism responsible for regulating the production of cortisol , a stress hormone that in small amounts results in bursts of energy and higher pain tolerances . With runaway levels of cortisol , though , the males ’ bodies literally begin to fall apart . Bone density plummets and blood - sugar levels go nuts . Their immune systems essentially degrade to worthlessness , as open sores form and never heal . Of course , females are also quite stressed during all of this , but they do n ’ t produce anywhere near the same levels of testosterone , so their cortisol regulation remains normal . A rare picture of antechinus on top of something other than another antechinus . Photo : Gary Cranitch , Queensland Museum The whole affair is one of nature ’ s most striking manifestations of the true meaning of life : At a very basic level , all critters , including you and me , are on this planet to pass along their genes , even if it means an early demise . Antechinus males , after all , were only born after the previous year ’ s mating season . Not a single one reaches 12 months old , while females live up to three years . And while it may not seem like anything other than strange hedonism , the males , with their mass suicide , in a way help guarantee the success of the offspring they ’ ll never get to enlighten with what would have been a truly epic sex talk . ( You see , son , when a man loves a woman very much , it ’ s not long before he goes blind and dies . ) “ It ' s all geared toward the young being born when spring starts , ” said Baker , “ so there will be a big flush of insects in spring . The female will give birth to the young and then she ' ll have plenty of food available because the population has been halved , because all the males are dead . ” In the eight to 12 weeks leading up to the mating season , though , males are taking more than their fair share of food , scurrying around frantically and hoovering up insects . “ They ' re spending all of their time building up food and fat stores , ” said Baker , “ because they know they ' re going to need it across that intensive mating block . ” Plus , the more weight you pack on , the more energy you can devote to producing sperm , which males store in enormous quantities before the mating season begins . Bigger males will also beat out smaller ones for the right to mate – Baker has found individuals that are twice the weight of others ( MMA enthusiasts , obviously ) . Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available . Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video . In the end , though , females find themselves alone in a forest of dead males , carrying an incredible amount of sperm from perhaps dozens of different potential fathers . But this seems to be problematic for one of evolution ’ s most basic principles : sexual selection . Typically , females pick only the most fit of males , so they can better guarantee offspring with strong genetics . But antechinus ladies are n ’ t exactly picky – it ’ s not like they roll up to a sperm bank and studiously flip through catalogs of donors . So are n ’ t they inevitably stuck with sub - par sperm ? Well , sure , she ’ s carrying sperm from smaller , less fit males . But larger males produce more sperm , boosting the chance that theirs will win out in the fertilization game . And obviously , with that many partners the competition is fierce . Indeed , a single brood will consist of young from several different fathers . She ’ ll actually give birth to up to three times as many young as she has teats . This , too , is where good genes from their fathers benefit the diminutive , barely developed young . “ They have n ' t got much going for them except for a really strong mouth and sucking mechanism and some little hands and arms to crawl their way up , ” said Baker . “ They ' ll crawl up and attach to a teat and then once all the teats are occupied all the other extras that were born As a marsupial , antechinus gives birth to highly underdeveloped jelly beans . So right from birth , natural selection favors only the strongest young from the strongest fathers . The ones that survive settle into a kind of pouch , though it ’ s nowhere near as luxurious as a baby kangaroo ' s digs . This is more of a depression in the lower abdomen , with raised and slightly enclosed walls , where the young hole up even while the mother hunts . And the female must feed ravenously , for milk production in marsupials is extremely energy - intensive . In placentals , most of the energy in rearing young is spent in utero , as you mothers out there can attest ( that ' s not to say that significant energy is n ' t eventually spent on the uniquely human duties of keeping kids from tumbling down stairs and eating crayons ) . " But marsupials are born small and immature , " said Baker , " and most of the energy is driven toward milk production . So when she ' s producing milk for the growing young , it ' After six weeks , the young have become too large for their mother to schlep around , so they ’ ll detach and hang tight in the nest and resume suckling when the mother returns . After another six weeks , they ’ re large enough for the female to evict entirely . And so the tiny critters scurry toward their fates : for males , certain death – for females , a male - free paradise of boundless food .

Christina Bonnington gear 02.02.15 04 : 45 am Review : Fitbit Charge HR The new Fitbit Charge HR is a new wearable band that can measure your heart rate . And it works pretty well , as long as you do n ' t push yourself into the red zone too often . Rate 7 / 10 i Price $ 150 Buy Now Wired Stellar battery life : 5 to 7 days per charge . Soft band . Easy to use and sync . Highly accurate step and sleep tracking . Well - designed mobile app with data presented in easy - to - understand graphs . Tired Not waterproof . Heart - rate tracking not accurate for high heart rates . Pulse - tracking LEDs are alarmingly bright at night . Watch clasp grows uncomfortable when worn 24 / 7 . No Apple Health integration , though not a huge knock against the Charge HR since Fitbit ' s app interface is better than the Health interface . I find myself in a quandary about activity trackers . I ' m already a very active person — a competitive athlete , even ( I race bikes ) . Do I need one ? How can a little rubber band help me improve my health ? A simple step tracker is n ' t worth the wrist real estate . But the latest trend in wearables has piqued my interest : heart - rate tracking . Specifically , continuous , all - day heart - rate tracking that ' s just as accurate when you ' re sitting at your desk as when you ' re jogging in the park . It ' s a challenge for wearables for two big reasons : non - stop heart - rate monitoring takes a toll on device battery life ; and it ' s a lot more difficult The new Fitbit Charge HR is one of many new wearables that can read your heart rate . As your heart beats , your capillaries expand and contract due to changes in blood volume , and Fitbit ' s band uses two bright green LEDs ( proven in scientific studies to be more effective at monitoring heart rate than other wavelengths ) to shoot light into your flesh and detect these blood volume changes beneath the skin . The lights flash continuously — by monitoring your heart rate non - stop , you can glean information like your true resting heart rate or how intense your workouts are . You can also learn when you ' re getting stressed out and get a better estimate of how many calories you burn each day , which are particularly useful for maintaining or achieving weight and blood - pressure goals . Color The Charge HR comes with some detailed guidelines on how to ensure you ' re tracking your heart rate correctly . You ' re supposed to wear the band one finger width above your wrist bone , and double or triple that distance during exercise . Also , after last year ' s recall of the Force wristband due to skin irritation issues , the company has explicit guidelines for keeping the device clean and dry if it gets sweaty . I was impressed with the depth of the instructions ( and also that it did n ' t give me a rash ) , but I was n ' t as impressed with its heart - rate tracking as I ' d hoped . Fitbit ' s mobile app automatically breaks down heart rate into three zones : peak , cardio , and fat burn , based on the often used ( and often inaccurate , and in my case extremely inaccurate ) method of calculating max heart rate based on 220 minus your age . By this math , if you ' re 30 , your max heart rate is 190 . When walking , running , cycling at a casual pace , or at rest , the Charge HR ' s heart - rate tracking seemed accurate , measuring the gamut from my resting heart rate in the low 50s to " fat burn " levels in the 130s . Above that , it got wonky . It could sometimes measure " peaks " into the 160s , but according to a heart rate strap , I spent a good amount of time in the 180s . I set a custom zone up to my actual max heart rate in the In almost every other aspect , the Charge HR excelled . Like all Fitbits , it tracks steps , distance , calories burned , and floors climbed , which , being more experienced in this space than almost any competitor , it does with aplomb . The form is similar to that of the Charge , which came out in late 2014 , but with a watch band - style clasp . The band is made of an exceedingly soft , supple rubber that feels velvety to the touch : smooth on back , textured with a diamond grid pattern free loop Fitbit ' s sleep - tracking algorithms , while not incredibly detailed , are accurate . I wore the band to bed every night , and it could ascertain what time ( down to the minute ) I hit the sack , as well as what time I woke up . Unlike other sleep trackers , there ' s no need to press a button to indicate bedtime or the morning wake - up call . In the app , it relays when you were asleep , restless , and awake in a color - coded sleep pattern graph . Microsoft Band ' s sleep analytics , which can differentiate between light , deep , and REM sleep . But it ' s still useful in getting a handle of your overall sleep quality . The Charge HR takes into account motion and heartrate in its sleep analytics , unlike previous FitBits that only tracked movement . The mobile app remains a well - designed , easy to navigate tool for looking at your data , monitoring your fitness progress , and also tracking your food intake and water consumption . I was also able to easily port that information over from MyFitnessPal , where I already do most of my tracking . I had only one other major complaint about the Charge HR : It ' s not waterproof . For a device designed for all day , everyday , and athletic wear , I want to be able to strap this thing on and leave it on until it needs to be charged . It is water resistant — that is , sweat , rain , and splash - proof — but on multiple occasions I forgot to put it back on after showering , losing over half a day ' s stats . And once , I accidentally left it So back to my original quandary . This wearable is not for hardcore athletic monitoring . For that , go for something like a Garmin Forerunner 920XT or a Polar V800 and a heart - rate strap . That said , the Charge HR is a good tool for monitoring daily activity and moderate workouts , and for getting better insight into what your body is doing while you ' re focused on , well , living life . Fitbit also sells a cheaper Charge that does everything except track your heart rate . It costs $ 130 , and the Charge HR costs $ 150 . That extra $ 20 for heart - rate monitoring over the Charge ? It ' s a no brainer if you ' re just tracking a few 5 - mile runs or regular gym sessions per week . And the charts and data gathered in the Fitbit app can be enlightening , and even entertaining — you can pinpoint when you ran to catch the bus , or climbed three flights of stairs to the office ( although novelty factor wo n ' t eventually wear off ) . While this Fitbit may not be the Cinderella slipper of my wearable dreams , I would absolutely recommend it to family and friends . Buy Now # Fitness Trackers # Wearables

Lexi Pandell culture 04.08.15 03 : 30 pm WIRED Binge - Watching Guide : Adventure Time Cartoon Network Adventure Time has long been lauded as one of TV ’ s most progressive shows , a children ’ s cartoon that regularly flirts with some very mature material . Yes , the show has a Candy Kingdom , unicorn - rainbow hybrids , and a princess made entirely of sentient bubblegum . But a glimpse at the visual style and character design wo n ’ t give you an idea about the essence of the show — one that ' s about the struggles of adolescence , out - of - body experiences , genetic mutation , and nuclear war . is a whole lot of fun , but it ' s also bildungsroman of epic proportions . The show , created by writer / producer Pendleton Ward , follows the exploits of a human named Finn ( voiced by Jeremy Shada ) and his best friend / adoptive brother Jake ( John DiMaggio ) , who happens to be a magical dog with the power to stretch to nearly any size or shape . The pair lives in a treehouse in the Land of Ooo , the spectacular ruins of post - apocalyptic Earth repopulated by adorable mutants , magical creatures , and lab - developed beings . Show regulars include voice - acting superstars DiMaggio ( Futurama ) and Tom Kenny ( the voice of SpongeBob ) and cameos from the likes of George Takei , Andy Milonakis , Maria Bamford , and Lou Ferrigno . has been called the best science fiction show on television . But even if you disagree with that assertion , you can still count on it to inspire the next generation of artists who are watching this trippy , visual playground unfold while they ' re still in their pajamas and munching on Fruit Loops . So , c ' mon . Grab your friends , whip up some bacon pancakes , and hang on for the ride . Number of Seasons : 6 ( 187 episodes ) Time Requirements : Each episode is only 11 minutes , so with 187 episodes you ' re in for just over 34 hours in the Land of Ooo . That means you could probably knock it out in a long weekend , if you wanted , but we recommend you spread it over a couple weeks .

But the not - so - secret best plotline is between Marceline the Vampire Queen ( Olivia Olson ) and the Ice King ( Kenny ) . Ice King starts out as a one - dimensional and , frankly , pretty obnoxious villain fixated on kidnapping princesses , but over time his front starts to fade . We begin to learn more about his past and his special bond Seasons / Episodes You Can Skip : Season 2 : Episode 10 , " To Cut a Woman ' s Hair " Much like * South Park ' * s Kenny , we ' re unsure of what Finn looks like under his hat up until this point .

Season 3 : Episode 13 , " From Bad to Worse " Princess Bubblegum ( Hynden Walch ) accidentally creates a zombie virus that infects Cinnamon Bun ( Dee Bradley Baker ) and , quickly , the rest of the Candy Kingdom . is known for its spot - on genre parodies , but this is one that falls flat . Season 3 : Episode 23 , " Another Way " After Jake and Finn hurt their toes while adventuring , Finn has to come to terms with the fact that he may not always be right . This episode features some seriously scary clown nurses with foot fetishes and an off - putting , Auto - Tuned song about being wrong . Season 6 : Episode 5 , " Sad Face " Jake ' s tail gets a life of its own once a month as a clown in a flea circus . The whole thing is pretty uneventful . All of the Graybles Episodes : rarely feels like a kids ' show . But the Graybles episodes , which feature five super - short scenes with a shared theme ( Get it ? Fables ? Graybles ? ) , wo n ' t appeal to adults . Episodes that Focus on the Earl of Lemongrab : Lemongrab ( Justin Roiland ) , a genetically modified ( and very neurotic ) lemon created by Princess Bubblegum to take over the Candy Kingdom when she dies , is probably one of our least favorite characters . His tagline ( " Unacceptable ! " ) is funny at first , but his anxiety and shrill voice become more stressful than funny . Eventually , he ' s exiled to rule his own kingdom of Lemon People where he becomes an exacting dictator . ( Spoiler : His subjects begin to starve and wither under his rule . It ' Seasons / Episodes You Ca n ’ t Skip : Season 1 : Episode 2 , " Trouble in Lumpy Space " Lumpy Space Princess , affectionately known as LSP and brilliantly voiced by the show ’ s creator Pendleton Ward , accidentally chomps down on Jake ’ s foot , which gives him " the Lumps .

Season 2 : Episodes 24 & 25 , " Mortal Folly " and " Mortal Recoil " In " Mortal Folly , " we ' re introduced to the Lich ( voiced by Ron Perlman ) , an undead sorcerer who serves as one of the few purely evil characters on the show — and who becomes important to the plot down the line . At the end of " Mortal Folly , " the Lich nearly kills Princess Bubblegum . Though she survives , in " Mortal Recoil , " it becomes clear that something ' s , uh , a little different about her . Season 3 , Episode 9 , " Fionna and Cake " This is the first of a series of gender - bender episodes , where each of the gang is replaced with their other - sex alter ego — in the case of Finn and Jake , they ' re replaced by Fionna and Cake , a girl in a rabbit - like hat and a sassy , stretchy cat . Neil Patrick Harris guests as Prince Gumball . The episode is totally out of the blue , and totally amazing . Season 3 , Episode 17 , " Thank You " Considered one of the best episodes ever , this one - off is about a Snow Gollum who befriends a fire wolf pup from a pack that is destroying his snowy world .

We ' re not sure why PB thought this was a good idea considering how Lemongrab turned out . And , of course , the plan to teach Goliad smarts and a sense of justice backfires . The episode features a glorious reappearance by Buff Baby Finn — we ' ll get to that later . Season 4 : Episode 25 , " I Remember " Ice King comes to Marceline to help him write a song to attract princesses . Marcy , disgusted with what the wizard Ice King has become , starts to reveal more about her relationship with Simon in the aftermath of the Great Mushroom War .

Season 5 : Episode 6 , " Jake the Dad " Jake and his girlfriend Lady Rainicorn , a Korean rainbow - unicorn hybrid , have puppies .

Season 5 : Episode 34 , " The Vault " Finn revisits his past life as a one - armed bandit named Shoko , who has a strange encounter with Princess Bubblegum ( who is way older than she seems — or , as Finn says it , " PB , you ' re like a bazillion years old !

Though he starts dying without magic keeping him alive , he asks Marceline , Finn , and Jake to help him time travel to communicate with his fiancée , Betty Grof ( voiced by Lena Dunham ) . Season 5 : Episode 51 , " Billy ' s Bucket List " Skip the awkward rap contest at the start of this episode . You ' re here for the incredible ending and , of course , to see Finn race through the desert on a motorcycle while being chased by a dinosaur . Season 6 : There are some mediocre episodes this season , but not many . Season 6 is when things , generally , start to get very real . Do n ' t miss the first three episodes , which are key to the plot ( and feature the amazing Prismo , voiced by Kumail Nanjiani ) . Some other standout episodes include " Breezy , " in which a seriously depressed Finn tries to make out with tons of princesses to fill an emotional void ; " Evergreen , " in which we get a strange , cosmic explanation for Ice King Why You Should Binge : Most of the episodes are easy enough to follow that they could be watched as one - offs . But part of the joy of is how much detail is packed into each short episode . Binge - ing is the best way to follow the narrative arcs and watch the characters change , sometimes very literally . As Finn ages , you can see him slowly become taller . ( And as Finn ' s voice actor Jeremy Shada matures , you can hear the character ' s voice crack and deepen . ) Once Season 6 wraps up , there will be a miniseries focused on Marceline — we have a feeling it will be worthwhile to catch up on the series before Best Scene — Tie The Best Scene crown has to be split in two for . The first half goes to Buff Baby Finn , as first seen by Marceline while traveling through Finn ’ s memories ( long story ) : The second half goes to Jake ' s encounter with a dancing bug : The Takeaway : " I was just playing around with my imagination . And then everything got intense . " — Jake the Dog If You Liked You ’ ll Love : Regular Show , created by Pendleton Ward ' s CalArts friend J.G. Quintel , follows the antics of a blue jay and raccoon working as groundskeepers at a park .

Brian Barrett gear 05.05.15 11 : 00 am Yeah , the Apple Watch Scratches — All Stainless Steel Watches Do Apple Watch shipments may have been delayed until July , but those who have received their shiny , stainless steel versions have already taken to Twitter , Instagram , and Apple forums to show off some scratches and scuffs . Should a luxury item you paid hundreds of dollars for be so susceptible to scarring ? As a matter of fact , it should . You may have already seen some of the dramatic images of the stainless steel Apple Watch — that ’ s the mid - tier version , nestled between the cheaper aluminum - bodied Sport Watch and the if - you - have - to - ask gold Apple Watch Edition — that look like it ’ s been on the losing end of a knife fight . The implication is that the Watch is somehow defective . Expensive things are n ’ t supposed to lose so much luster , at least not quite so quickly . https : / / twitter . com / JournalDuGeek / status / 592968597259030529 Unfortunately , this only makes sense if you ’ ve never owned a high - end stainless steel watch before , or for that matter , any stainless steel anything . A Feature , Not a Scuff The type of stainless steel Apple has deployed in the Watch is known as 316L . For all the ways Cupertino ’ s first wearable wants to revolutionize our wrist - worn gadgets , this is not one of them . " 316L is the most common type of stainless steel used for watches , " explains Nick Manousos , Technical Editor for authoritative watch enthusiast site Hodinkee . " Chances are , if you are wearing a steel watch , it is made with 316L stainless steel . " That ubiquity stems from 316L ’ s unique properties , says Ali Erdemir , materials scientist and Distinguished Fellow at Argonne National Laboratory . According to Erdemir , " 316L has very low carbon content , which makes it very resistant to corrosion … It always keeps this very nice , white , shiny color . " With this assurance that your gleaming heirloom timepiece ( or in this case , digital device ) wo n ’ t fade or rust , though , comes a trade - off : Whether it ' s sold by Apple or Montblanc , it ’ s soft enough to scratch . Loading View on Instagram Toughening Up It ’ s possible to use a form of stainless steel called 904L , which is both harder and even more resistant to corrosion than 316L , in a luxury watch . Rolex does . But as Manousos , points out , those advantages also make 904L more difficult to machine , and therefore more expensive to produce . The $ 550 stainless steel Apple Watch might cost more than the last Timex you owned , but it ’ s a pittance next to traditional high - end watches using many of the same materials . Watchmakers more commonly offer protection by providing a finish on their stainless steel , in a process called work hardening . " Most watchmakers stamp or forge the cases of their watches , which hardens stainless steel , " says Greg Koenig , product designer and co - founder of Luma Labs , but even that " clearly does n ’ t bump the surface level up enough to be very scratch - resistant . " Manousos agrees that " the finishing of the steel is really what sets apart different brands . " It ’ s also where Apple runs into some trouble next to some of its 316L competition . " The majority of the [ Apple Watch ] case has a smooth , curved , mirror - polished finish . While a mirror - polished finish looks nice , it makes a scratch very visible , " Manousos explains , whereas " a brushed finish can hide or obscure a scratch a bit better . " So while scratches are likely to bless the surface any of stainless steel watch , they might be slightly more likely to do so on Apple ’ s version than those opting for more expensive solutions . A few hundred dollars is already a lot to ask for a smartwatch ; a few thousand just to maintain a slightly smoother case would have been untenable . The good news though ? Your scratches , when they do happen , do n ’ t have to be permanent . In fact , you may not want to get rid of them anyway . Get Buff All of the experts we talked to said that while you should n ’ t try to clear your Apple Watch of scratches on your own , it ’ s certainly possible to fix them . " To repair a scratch in any metal , it is polished away , usually using a polishing paste that contains a small amount of abrasive , " says Manousos . " The act of polishing removes a small amount of surface material until the scratch no longer is visible . " It ’ s an easy enough job for a professional , although finding one comfortable enough to fiddle with an unfamiliar Apple Watch and all of its digital trappings might take some searching . That ’ s the real concern when it comes to Apple Watch scratches , says Koenig , and maintenance in general : There simply does n ’ t seem to be much support built in . Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available . Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video . " Most mechanical watches have a maintenance interval of five years … In talking with Apple Retail employees , there seems [ to be ] absolutely no plan or expectation to offer any similar service to the Apple Watch , " Koenig explains . " Apple has no provisions in place for polishing or servicing the Watch or Watch Edition models . For comparison ; Rolex and Omega offer guides , special tools , and even week - long classes to their certified watchmakers on how to properly polish the intricate details of their cases and bracelets ( often , It ’ s possible , of course , that there ’ s no five - year maintenance plan — or something like it — simply because nobody expects an Apple Watch to last that long , any more than you expect to see someone pull out an iPhone 4 or original iPad on the subway today . Unlike a time - tested mechanical timepiece , the Apple Watch is a very small computer , and very small computers suffer battery death and firmware obsolescence and a host of other inconveniences that grind them to a halt . If you do That ’ s all assuming a few scuffs are a bad thing . In the world of high - end watches , some wear and tear indicates legitimacy . " They show that the watch has been worn and appreciated , " says Manousos . Not only are scratches " totally normal , " having them " shows that the watch is authentic , original , and has lived life as it should . " If after all of those assurances you ’ re still concerned about scarring your shiny new wristable , though , you ’ re in luck . The $ 350 Apple Watch Sport forgoes 316L stainless steel for 7000 series anodized aluminum , which Koenig points out is much more scratch - resistant than its pricier sibling , though any nicks to the anodized layer will end up being more noticeable . The bigger trade - off on the Sport Watch , though , might be its screen . Whereas the stainless steel Watch uses industry - standard , highly resistant Like , well , everything , it all comes down to trade - offs . Would you like a clear screen or a clear case ? Do you like the weathered look , or would you prefer something appear as - new for as long as possible ? If the latter , perhaps it ’ s wise to wait on the Apple Watch altogether , at least until they switch to adamantium . # Apple Watch # smartwatches

https://www.wired.com/2015/05/nsa-actual-skynet-program/
Kim Zetter security 05.08.15 11 : 29 am So , the NSA Has an Actual Skynet Program Orion Pictures We ' ve suspected it all along — that Skynet , the massive program that brings about world destruction in the Terminator movies , was just a fictionalization of a real program in the hands of the US government . And now it ' s confirmed — at least in name . As The Intercept reports today , the NSA does have a program called Skynet . But unlike the autonomous , self - aware computerized defense system in Terminator that goes rogue and launches a nuclear attack that destroys most of humanity , this one is a surveillance program that uses phone metadata to track the location and call activities of suspected terrorists . A journalist for Al Jazeera reportedly became one of its targets after he was placed on a terrorist watch list . Ahmad Muaffaq Zaidan , bureau chief for Al Jazeera ' s Islamabad office , got tracked by Skynet after he was identified by US intelligence as a possible Al Qaeda member and assigned a watch list number . A Syrian national , Zaidan has scored a number of exclusive interviews with senior Al Qaeda leaders , including Osama bin Laden himself . Skynet uses phone location and call metadata from bulk phone call records to detect suspicious patterns in the physical movements of suspects and their communication habits , according to a 2012 government presentation The Intercept obtained from Edward Snowden . The presentation indicates that Skynet looks for terrorist connections based on questions such as “ who has traveled from Peshawar to Faisalabad or Lahore ( and back ) in the past month ? Who does the traveler call when he arrives ? ” It also looks for suspicious behaviors such as someone who engages in “ excessive SIM or handset swapping " or receives “ incoming calls only . " The goal is to identify people who move around in a pattern similar to Al Qaeda couriers who are used to pass communication and intelligence between the group ' s senior leaders . The program tracked Zaidan because his movements and interactions with Al Qaeda and Taliban leaders matched a suspicious pattern — which is , it turns out , very similar to the pattern of journalists meeting with sources . We should note that the NSA has a second program that more closely resembles the ' s Skynet . This one is called MonsterMind , as revealed by Edward Snowden last year in an interview with WIRED and James Bamford . MonsterMind , like the film version of Skynet , is a defense surveillance system that would instantly and autonomously neutralize foreign cyberattacks against the US , and could be used to launch retaliatory strikes as well . Under this program algorithms would scour massive repositories of metadata and analyze it to differentiate normal network traffic from anomalous or malicious traffic . Armed with this knowledge , the NSA could instantly and autonomously identify , and block , a foreign threat . Snowden also suggested , however , that MonsterMind could one day be designed to return fire — automatically , without human intervention — against an attacker . Because an attacker could tweak malicious code to avoid detection , a counterstrike would be more effective in neutralizing future attacks . Sounds a lot like Skynet . No word from the NSA on why they did n ' t use that iconic film name for its real - world Skynet . # Edward Snowden # NSA # Skynet # surveillance

Jordan Golson gear 08.26.15 12 : 02 am Verizon ' s ' Hum ' Turns Any Clunker Into a Connected Car HUM Many modern cars come with a service like OnStar . Get lost or get in an accident and help is a button press away . These days , they ' ll even send a push notification to your phone if your ride ' s got a mechanical problem or needs service . It ' s a handy service , and a key selling point for many vehicles . But you ' re pretty much out of luck if you drive an old car , or one from an automaker who has n ' t joined the connected car craze . That ' s a big market , as there are some 150 million vehicles on the road that are n ' t at all connected . To tap it , Verizon launched Hum . A questionable name perhaps , but a potentially very useful service . The service , which Verizon announced earlier this year as Verizon Vehicle but rebranded before launching it today , taps your car ' s on - board diagnostic port , and conveys information through a Bluetooth - enabled speaker clipped to your visor . It works with most cars ( electrics and diesels excepted ) and any carrier and costs 15 bucks a month . It collects data on a range of parameters , including fuel economy , battery charge level , transmission coolant temperature , and engine error codes . It relays that info to the cloud , and an iPhone or Android app will notify you if anything seems amiss . If your car throws an error code , the app explains what it means , recommends repairs and even provides an estimate for what it will cost . If something trickier pops up , a hotline will connect you to a mechanic who will help diagnose the problem . Verizon pitches this as a way of avoiding breakdowns by identifying problems before they leave you stranded . But should something go kablooey , the $ 15 monthly subscription fee includes roadside assistance . And if your ride ever gets stolen , GPS and data from the OBD can help locate the car ( though that information is available only to the police , to prevent vehicle owners from confronting thieves ) . It will even remind you where you parked the car , and when the meter ' s set to expire . Of course , safety is the big sell behind products like this . Much like OnStar and its ilk , Hum will call you in the event of an accident and make sure you ' re OK . If you do n ' t respond , it will call for help . And there ' s a panic button you can push to call 911 if something goes completely sideways . " It ' s smart because there are plenty of people who own cars that do not have any kind of connected capability , " says Karl Brauer , an automotive industry analyst with Kelley Blue Book . " But , I ' m not generally thrilled with the idea that I ' m having everything I do tracked by somebody . " Verizon is n ' t the first to tap the OBD port to help make you a better , safer driver . Automatic uses a similar dongle to help make you a better , more efficient driver . Insurance companies have experimented with similar technology , and any time you have insurance companies or a telecom accessing information about your driving habits , privacy questions arise . Verizon , of course , says it will vigorously protect your data , sharing it with third parties only in cases where its needed to provide services like roadside assistance . And it will share data with law enforcement only " where authorized and required by law . " " We take privacy very seriously , " says Andres Irlando , CEO of Verizon Telematics . " We ' ve built the service with that in mind . " That said , there is no way to easily erase your data .

Brian Barrett gear 09.03.15 01 : 58 pm 4K Blu - ray Players Are Here — Now We Just Need Actual Content The achingly gradual transition to 4K just got a slight speed boost : Samsung has introduced the world ’ s first — but certainly not last — 4K Blu - ray player . Now all we need is something to put in it . The device , shown off at the IFA consumer electronics showcase in Berlin , will play back content at four times the resolution of your current Blu - ray player , just as soon as studios can churn out enough ultra high - definition Blu - ray discs to make owning one worth it . 20th Century Fox has reportedly committed to the physical format , with others likely to follow ; the Blu - ray Disc Association counts among its board of directors content heavyweights like Disney , Universal , Sony , and Warner Brothers . Lionsgate and Paramount are affiliated as well . It ’ s that group that put its weight behind the Ultra HD Blu - ray spec that allows for steroidal Blu - ray players like Samsung ’ s new UBS - K8500 . While there are plenty of Blu - ray players currently on the market that offer 4K upscaling , these new devices play genuine UHD content , and offer other perks like high dynamic range ( HDR ) and 10 - bit color , which allows for a color gamut of 1.07 billion , versus the current generation ’ s 8 - bit color and its ( Or rather , they will , when they ’ re actually available . Samsung expects the UBS - K8500 to hit the market next year for an unspecified price . When it does , it ’ ll solve one of the main problems facing the limited 4K movies and TV shows that currently exist . UHD content provides a much better image , provided you have a large enough TV screen , but today it ’ s almost exclusively available digitally . Those are huge files to stream and store , beyond most people ’ s bandwidth capabilities . A The bigger hurdle to 4K Blu - ray adoption , of course , is whether physical media carries any weight to begin with anymore . Unlike the first transition from DVD to Blu - ray , when digital downloads were still a nascent business and stacks of discs were the norm , this move comes at a time when the concept of owning a shiny movie - playing pancake feels as antiquated as carrying around a pocket calculator . Or maybe 4K streaming will be a pain for so long , and the benefits of a 4K picture so abundantly clear , and the range of available 4K content so plentiful and diverse , that we ’ ll have no choice but to embrace our UHD Blu - ray future . Either way , it sounds like we ’ ve got plenty of time to figure it all out . # 4K # Blu - Ray # Samsung

Share Sarah Zhang science 020116 0700 am DNA Got a Kid Kicked Out of SchoolAnd Itll Happen Again Then OneWIRED A few weeks into sixth grade Colman Chadam had to leave school because of his DNA The situation odd as it may sound played out like this Colman has genetic markers for cystic fibrosis and kids with the inherited lung disease cant be near each other because theyre vulnerable to contagious infections Two siblings with cystic fibrosis also attended Colmans middle school in Palo Alto California in 2012 So Colman was out even though he didnt actually have the disease according to a lawsuit that his parents filed against the school district The allegation Genetic discrimination Yes genetic discrimination Get used to those two words together because theyre likely to become a lot more common With DNA tests now cheap and readily available the number of people getting tests has gone way upalong with the potential for discrimination based on the results When Colmans school tried to transfer him based on his genetic status the lawsuit alleges the district violated the Americans With Disabilities Act and Colmans First Amendment right to privacy This is the test case says the Chadams lawyer Stephen Jaffe When Colman was born in 2000 DNA analysis of newborns was still rare But he had a congenital heart problem that led to extra tests That in turn led doctors to discover that he carried some genetic markers associated with cystic fibrosis His markers are no guarantee of a disease though and Colman never developed any cystic fibrosis Still his parents disclosed the information when filling out a medical form to enroll Colman in school That information made its way to teachers who allegedly told the parents of the two other students with cystic fibrosis during a parentteacher conference Those parents allegedly demanded the Chadams remove their son from school Eventually the the school district allowed Colman to return after missing a couple weeks The Chadams have since moved away from Palo Altobut the wheels of the legal system are still turning When the family first sued the school district in 2013 a district court dismissed the case The Chadams appeal the dismissal to the federal Ninth Circuit court in January The Departments of Justice and Education have also written a brief in support of the Chadams case which suggests the federal government has taken an interest in the case and its outcome A Railroad Company and Carpal Tunnel To experts in genetics law four letters are conspicuously missing from the legal wrangling GINA or the federal Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 GINA bars genetic discrimination in just two cases employment or health insurance That obviously doesnt include getting education and housing and plenty of other situation where discrimination might happen This case is an useful reminder about the limitations of the federal statute says Jennifer Wagner a lawyer and contributing editor to Genomics Law Report Thats why the Chadams case does not rest on GINA but the ADA where its application to genetic discrimination is untested There is however a one example of how the ADA and genetic information intersect Back in 2001before GINA passedthe railroad company Burlington Northern Santa Fe was looking for genetic markers for carpal tunnel syndrome in its workers who filed for workers comp The workers claimed their carpal tunnel syndrome came from operating BNSF machinery the company was clearly looking for another excuse The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed suit on behalf of the workers and they eventually reached a settlement in 2002 The workers got 22 millionbut because the suit ended in a settlement rather than a court decision it did not establish a legal precedent for the ADA covering discrimination based on genes The outcome in Chadams case could if a trial goes forward spell out exactly who gets to access genetic information and what decisions can be made based on it In the fifteen years since Colman got a DNA test as a baby tests have only gotten cheaper and more popular You have 23andMes 199 spit test of course but also the National Institutes of Health pumping 25 million into baby sequencing studies As we do more screening earlier and earlier in life theres potential for misuse of information in ways that are harmful that could potentially discourage parents from seeking genetic testing even if its medically indicated says Michelle Lewis a pediatrician attorney and research scholar at the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics The genetic discrimination future is Biology genetics View Comments

Adrienne So gear 093018 0800 am Review Plantronics BackBeat FIT 2100 Plantronics finally updated my platonic ideal of wireless running headphones Rate 810 i Price 100 Wired Rugged rubber Waterproof and sweatproof Lets in ambient noise Stable and comfortable Map custom button functions with the app Tired Sound isbehind the pack In high school my crosscountry coach once counseled me to open my clenched fists Stay relaxed he said The energy that you use to clench your fists is energy that you need for running To this day every time a shirt rides up or a shoe comes untied I shout Noooo I need this energy for running Thats why I like many runners loved the original Plantronics BackBeat FITs They were 100 percent fussfree You didnt have to untangle wires or remember where you put a case They never fell out They were simple durable and waterresistant and all at a price that wasnt completely outrageous Its taken Plantronics a long time to update them Indeed theyre releasing it in a series of workout headphones along with the nyloncorded Backbeat FIT 350 which is an update to the Backbeat FIT 305 and a new set of wirefree sport earbuds the Backbeat FIT 3100s But after trying all three Im still convinced Plantronics has kept all the things that made the original Backbeat FIT great and the updates only make it better These are my platonic ideal of running headphones Where the Rubber Meets the Road The Backbeat Fit 2100 has a unique look The earpieces are set on a short rubber cord that runs around the back of your head from one ear to the other The earpieces come in one size and sit inside the hollow of your ear rather than sealing in your ear canal I love Plantronics earpieces I have oddlyshaped ears and fitting sport earbuds is the bane of my existence I cant count the number of times that Ive burst out the door gotten halfway down the block and had one bud fall out The earpieces also let in just the right amount of ambient noise a feature that Plantronics calls Always Aware This keeps me from being run over by approaching bikes cars dogs or people when Im running or hiking outside I can also wear them while doing chores around the house confident that Ill be able to hear a dog bark or a kid fall off a table The original Backbeat FITs came in a series of utilitarian neon colors but the Backbeat FIT 2100s have a subdued black band with a metallic sheen on the earpieces that Plantronics informs me are meant to look like a pair of mirrored sunglasses they do The button on the right turns them on and allows you to pause or skip forward a track the button on the left lets you control the volume If you have trouble remembering which button does whatand I did with the original FITsyou can also now connect the headphones to the PLT Backbeat app and click My Tap My Tap allows you to assign different actions to one or two taps like checking battery level setting a stopwatch starting a preset timer or waking up Siri The app also has a Find My Headset feature which you might think would be useful Unfortunately it can only activate a tone if the headphones are still on and connected to your phone and I usually turn them off when Im not wearing them The microphone is decent and allowed me to sound intelligible while making dentist appointments or fending off phone bank callers asking for donations The battery has an extremely long life Its advertised as a full seven hours and I found that a full charge usually showed an estimated six to seven hours of battery life in the app I chose to check mine with a tap but you can also check in the BackBeat app and youll get reminded when you turn them on too In real world terms it means that the headphones wont poop out in the middle of a run Heck seven hours is long enough for a full day of hiking One charge usually lasted me four or five days for daily or twicedaily runs and walks with my dogs Even if the headphones warned me that the battery was low I usually had more than enough juice to make it for another halfhour home And finally the last update that Plantronics made was to up the headphones waterproofing rating The BackBeat Fit 2100s are rated at IP57 which means that theyre protected against immersion in liquids up to one meter I dont recommend this but I did in fact wear these in the shower They were fine You could also wear them while taking a bath or soaking in a hot tub although you cant take them swimming because surprise Bluetooth doesnt work underwater The Hills are Alive Of course the one drawback is one that many will find hard to overlook Compared to other headphones or even other workout headphones like say the premium Bose SoundSport Free the sound isnt mindblowing This is despite the fact that the BackBeat FIT 2100s have 135mm drivers a nice upgrade over the original BackBeat FITs 13mm drivers Part of this is attributable to the fact that the BackBeat Fit 2100s dont have any noisecanceling properties I like being able to hear whats going on around me but music does sound better when youre not also listening to a nearby Ultimate Frisbee game Electronic music in higher pitches like CHVRCHES did sound a little muddy and Haims fast snare drums sounded tinny Still Kacey Musgraves high pure singing in Oh What a World was still ethereal And the sound was big enough with a big enough bass presence that I found myself dancing to Weezer while walking my dogs It might seem counterintuitive to recommend headphones where the sound isnt as great as you might find elsewhere But when it comes to workout headphones sound quality just isnt at the top of my list of priorities Price and stability are Running is hard enough without your gear getting in the way I dont like wires getting caught in the hood of my rain jackets I dont want to worry about an earbud falling out into a bush or misplacing a clip or losing a case Thats why the original BackBeat FITs were so great and the BackBeat FIT 2100s are even better They look much cooler and the buttons are much easier to use When Im wearing them Im not constantly wondering if the wire would be better in front or in back or internally griping about sweaty silicone creating a vacuum in my ear I can save all that energy for running And theyre only 100 It might be finally time to trade my old headphones in Plantronics Buy Now Shopping outdoors Headphones workout earbud Affiliate Links

Share Arielle Pardes gear 031218 0800 am The Quest to Bring 3DPrinted Homes to the Developing World New Story In the lowslung hills of El Salvador building a house is not an easy task The land is vulnerable to earthquakes flooding volcanic eruptions The roads are rugged electricity sparse For the past several years New Story a housing charity based in San Franciscohas built over 150 homes there replacing tarps and scrap metal shelters with houses that have proper roofs and floors Its slow painstaking work in a country where nearly a third of the population is without shelter About a year ago the company wondered if there was a better way to build In the three years since it launched New Story had gathered the funding to construct 1300 homes and had completed 850 of thembut that felt like a drop in a bucket There are over 100 million people living in slum conditions in what we call survival mode says Alexandria Lafci New Storys cofounder and COO How can we make a big dent in this instead of just solving incrementally The idea they landed on 3D printing Using traditional building methods it takes New Story eight months to build a community of 100 homes like this one in Leveque Haiti Adam BrophyNew Story For the past 10 months New Story has tinkered away with construction technology company ICON to design a 3D printer for building homes in regions of the world that lack the economic resources to house their poorest citizens Today the companies are showing off the fruits of their labor a 350squarefoot structure in Austin Texas and the first 3Dprinted house in the country built to local housing code The Texas house is just a prototype of the fast cheap and sustainable home design the company hopes to bring to El Salvador Bolivia Haiti and Mexico Using current traditional methods it takes New Story eight months to build a community of 100 homes which cost about 6000 each With a 3D printer it says it can build one home a day at a cost of 4000 per structure If New Story succeeds the first people to live in a 3Dprinted town wont be the technologists or the futurists of Silicon Valley Theyll be people in the worlds poorest regions Open House A decade ago when 3D printing promised to usher in a second industrial revolution many saw the potential of using 3D printers to make buildings An architect could make a tiny model of a new home design using the resin or plastic filament in a desktop 3D printer then employ a similar but much larger machine to spit out a lifesize version of that same design using concrete and other familiar building materials The method looked to be cheaper and faster than traditional building and it used fewer resourcesyou only print the materials you need down to the drop Architectural features like curved walls normally expensive and difficult to build become effortless with a 3D printer You could print a house in the shape of a Fibonacci spiral if you wanted to says Jason Ballard cofounder of ICON Its just as simple as printing a square In 2013 the world of 3Dprintable buildings belonged to WinSun a Chinese construction company that successfully printed 10 houses in a day with a proprietary mix of cement sand and recycled materials It would later print a sixstory apartment an office building and a 11000squarefoot mansion The company also suggested it could print Donald Trumps border wall between the US and Mexico Since then other companies have joined the race to print buildings creating tiny houses and apartments and tree houses with specialized 3D printers that extrude mortar like an inkjet Last year the Russian company Apis Core showed off a printer that could build a house on the spot That house painted orange and shaped like an igloo cost about 10000 and took less than 24 hours to fabricate Like New Story Apis Cor hopes its technology can address housing shortages in poor areas Using our technology we can build houses faster cheaper and qualitatively enough with a small number of people involved says Anna Cheniuntai Apis Cors head of marketing It allows us to provide affordable housing for a lot of people in short period of time Critics worry that these companys like all the others in the 3Dprinting space will have difficulty scaling up But New Storys Lafci doesnt want to wait for the technology to trickle down to the regions with lean economies It will take many years before 3Dprinted homes are printing the types of homes that you and I would live in but the tech is ready now to print very highquality safe homes in the places were building she says Building Machines By the time New Story partnered with ICON the company had already made a few 3Dprinter prototypes that could spit out tiny houses But those were built for a warehouse setting The printer for New Story needed to withstand rugged conditions bad weather and the occasional power outage while it printed outdoors It also had to be portable enough to move around in a country without good transportation infrastructure ICON built a gantrystyle printer out of lightweight aluminum with a builtin backup generator It also designed a proprietary building mix to suit New Storys requirements The mortar had to be thin enough to flow through the printer like ink but thick enough to set in the shape of the building It had to cure relatively quickly but not too fast or the next layer wouldnt fuse properly If you just had stacks of cured layers then you could just push it over like a stack of Dominos says Ballard New Story added an additional requirement No exotic materials nothing When it came time to test the printer in Austin Ballard says there were a few surprises The concrete pump kept getting stuck and heavy rain in Austin jammed up a few parts We had to clean it like every eight layers says Ballard Just stop clean But eventually the house was printed and the finished structure met all of Austins permitting standards The next step Lafci says is bringing the printer to El Salvador where New Story plans to build its first community of 3Dprinted homes later this year Whether that becomes a reality or joins the long list of overpromised 3Dprinting projects remains to be seen But the first building in Austinone you can actually walk around insideseems like a decent place to start Correction at 1200 PM EDT on 31218 An earlier version of this story misstated the size of New Storys

State Bars Standing Committee on Professional Ethics Modernizing Wisconsin Residential Construction Laws New Wisconsin residential construction laws require consumers to afford contractors a right to cure construction defects before filing suit finetune existing construction lien laws and mandate licensing and continuing education requirements for residential contractors Mark R Hinkston Residential construction is a multibillion dollar industry in Wisconsin with more than 20000 new homes built annually and many more home improvements performed each year This boom has proliferated cuttingedge construction methods and an influx of many new contractors Growth and innovation in the residential construction industry led to a desire to resolve construction defect disputes short of litigation modernize applicable lien laws and heighten regulation of residential contractors As a result the Wisconsin Legislatures 200506 session produced three new laws that will affect homeowners and contractors and the attorneys who represent them All three bills were signed into law Foremost among the legislation is 2005 Wisconsin Act 201 known as the Right to Cure Act which becomes effective Oct 1 2006 It establishes procedures that are designed to resolve complaints about alleged construction defects by requiring consumers to notify contractors of alleged defects and give contractors an opportunity to cure defects by making repairs or paying money Consumers may not initiate litigation or arbitration unless they provide the notice of claim and the contractor fails to respond rejects the claim or makes an unacceptable settlement proposal The two other new residential construction laws are 2005 Wisconsin Act 204 which significantly revises Wisconsins construction lien laws and 2005 Wisconsin Act 200 which mandates annual continuing education for residential contractors requires previously uncertified residential contractors to take an examination for licensure and jeopardizes the ability of contractors that engage in financial malfeasance to obtain necessary financial certification to procure building permits Right to Cure Act Background and Applicability In the past there were no specific procedural guidelines in Wisconsin law to resolve residential construction disputes short of filing suit Builders groups lobbied to make Wisconsin one of a growing number of states to enact a law to afford contractors an opportunity to timely repair defects The Wisconsin Legislatures primary goal was to facilitate resolution of construction defect disputes without litigation by implementing a system that requires contractors and consumers to attempt to systematically address problems before commencing a court action or arbitration 1 In March Wisconsin became the 28th state to enact a contractor right to cure also known as right to repair law 2 Construction Public Contract Law Section Legislative Work Passes Muster The section worked more than 10 years to study to build consensus among construction industry constituents and to propose changes to fix the shortcomings of Wis Stat chapter 779 the Wisconsin Lien Law Gov Doyle signed the product of this work into law in March 2006 By Bruce Block Amending state statutes can be a daunting task particularly statutes such as the Wisconsin Lien Law Wis Stat ch 779 This law affects a wide array of parties with divergent interests and has seen relatively few changes since its enactment in 1973 The amendments to chapter 779 that Gov Doyle signed into law in March 2006 were initiated by the State Bar of Wisconsin Construction and Public Contract Law Section In the mid1990s section members were becoming increasingly aware of chapter 779s shortcomings Among other problems there were discrepancies in definitions between the statutes private and public contracting sections it was unclear if lienable rights extended to new types of participants in the construction delivery system such as construction managers and courts were interpreting certain provisions such as those relating to notice and to improvement square footage calculations in ways that were problematic for many players in the construction industry In response the section board created a Lien Law Committee in 1998 to identify industry concerns with chapter 779 and Over an 18month period the committee polled all section members interviewed representatives from virtually every trade organization related to the construction industry analyzed chapter 779s legislative history and reviewed the other 49 states construction lien laws The committee then reported its findings to the section board and proposed a series of procedural and substantive changes that it previewed with various trade organizations Chapter 779 attempts to balance the interests of many different parties to a construction project almost any change in the statute would likely shift or be perceived as shifting that balance resulting in opposition to the change Many The committee regrouped refined its proposals to adjust to the various constituencies comments and concerns and eventually developed a proposal that corrected important statutory shortcomings and passed muster with all major industry trade groups The effort to build consensus took substantial time and effort and was critical to the projects success By the latter part of 2005 it was time to go live A proposed bill was drafted circulated to the trade groups and modified several times before it was presented to a sponsor The Associated Builders and Contractors of Wisconsin Inc lobbyist John Mielke coordinated the legislative process Lisa Roys with the State Bars Government Relations department also joined the effort and provided invaluable counsel and guidance Senator David Zien and others introduced the bill in the Senate and it worked its way Many individuals played critical roles in making muchneeded changes to chapter 779 The trade organizations were extremely helpful in providing valuable feedback and improvements and the section board provided encouragement and reality checks It was the committee members however who pulled the oars Simply put this project would not have come to fruition without the effort and commitment of Kim Hurtado Ken Voss OK Johnson Jr and Steve Slawinski The section is deeply indebted to these attorneys for their fine work Bruce Block Boston 1979 of Reinhart Boerner Van Deuren SC Milwaukee is past chair of the State Bar Construction Public Contract Law Section In general Wisconsins new Right to Cure Act requires homeowners and other specified claimants to give contractors written notice of alleged construction defects and an opportunity to cure them as a prerequisite to filing suit It is comprised of two new statutes Section 101148 entitled Contractor notices requires contractors to supply consumers with notice of the defect claim procedures before and at the time of contracting Section 89507 entitled Claims against contractors and suppliers contains those claim procedures The Act states that the term construction defect means the definition of defect contained in a warranty or if there is no 3 The Right to Cure Act applies to written or oral contracts to construct a new dwelling or remodel an existing one It applies to any premises used as a home or residence and includes existing structures on or adjacent to the dwelling such as driveways sidewalks swimming pools patios garages and basements Thus it does not apply to nonresidential commercial construction It excludes maintenance or repair work It also does not apply to a situation in which the consumer alleges a construction defect as an affirmative defense or counterclaim in a suit initiated by a contractor Section 101148 the contractor notice statute refers to contractors and consumers collectively defined as persons who enter into an oral or written contract to construct or remodel a dwelling 4 Yet section 89507 the claims process statute refers to claimants and contractors 5 This difference in terms likely resulted because the drafters recognized that to limit the reach of section 89507 to consumers as defined in section 101148 would ignore that in some situations the original contracting party may not be the party ultimately bringing a defect claim for example when a house is sold to a subsequent owner who discovers defects Thus claimant means a dwellings owner tenant or lessee who has standing to bring suit relating to a construction defect against a contractor or supplier The term also includes homeowners and condominium associations that have such standing Suppliers also are addressed in the new law primarily in the context of contractors contribution claims against suppliers that may be at fault for the alleged defects However the Act applies only to door and window suppliers Contractor Notice to Consumers Under section 101148 before entering into a contract a contractor is required to deliver to a consumer a brochure prepared by the Wisconsin Department of Commerce DOC that explains the process of handling construction defects under section 89507 The brochure is available on the DOC Web site Section 101148 also requires contractors to provide consumers a written notice that alerts consumers of their obligation to follow the notice and right to cure process before filing a lawsuit against a contractor or door or window supplier for defective construction The statute provides recommended language for this Notice Concerning Construction Defects See Figure 1 The notice language must be conspicuous and may be included in the contract In situations in which oral contracts are used the notice must be provided in writing as soon as reasonably possible after the oral contract is formed but before the work is commenced Notice and Opportunity to Repair The flowchart marked as Figure 2 summarizes the right to cure process set forth in section 89507 Days in section 89507 means working or business days 6 At least 90 days before commencing any action against a contractor or door or window supplier relating to a construction defect a claimant must give the contractor or supplier written notice of the alleged defect and an opportunity to repair it The notice must contain a description of the claim in sufficient detail to explain the nature of the alleged defect and a description of the evidence that the claimant knows or possesses including expert reports that substantiates the nature and cause of the alleged construction defect 7 Contractor Response Under section 89507 a contractor has 15 days to serve the claimant with a written response to the claimants notice The contractors response may take one of several forms 1 a written rejection of the claim specifying the reason for rejection and including a comprehensive description of all evidence the contractor knows or possesses including expert reports that substantiates the reasons for rejection as well as any settlement offer received from a supplier 2 a written offer to remedy the defect at no cost with a description of the construction that is necessary to remedy the defect and a timetable If the contractor makes an offer to repair or pay money or a combination of the two the claimant has 15 days to accept or reject the offer If he or she rejects the offer within 15 days the claimant must serve a written rejection notice on the contractor specifying the reasons for the rejection The claimant is to alert the contractor to any items omitted from the contractors offer and if the claimant considers the offer unreasonable he or she must specify why The contractor then has five days to respond by serving a written supplemental offer to repair Mark R Hinkston Creighton 1988 cum laude practices with Knuteson Powers Quinn SC Racine If the contractor makes a supplemental offer the claimant is to respond within 15 days If the claimant rejects the offer the rejection notice must specify the reasons for the rejection and the basis for any contention that the supplemental offer is unreasonable The claimant may then bring an action without further notice If any offer or supplemental offer is accepted the claimant is to provide the contractor with reasonable access to the dwelling to allow the contractor to perform the repair work per the contractors proposed timetable If the contractor does not repair or remedy the defect per the settlement offer and timetable the contractor will not be penalized but the claimant may proceed with an action without further notice Inspection and Testing Sometimes a contractor will want to inspect the dwelling and conduct testing to assess a defect claim Under the new law if the contractor makes a proposal for inspection within 15 days of receiving the proposal the claimant is to grant the contractor reasonable access to the dwelling to inspect it document alleged defects and perform any testing needed to evaluate fully the nature extent and cause of the claimed construction defects and the nature and extent of any necessary repairs or replacements Figure 1 Notice Concerning Construction Defects Wisconsin law contains important requirements you must follow before you may file a lawsuit for defective construction against the contractor who constructed your dwelling or completed your remodeling project or against a window or door supplier or manufacturer Section 89507 2 and 3 of the Wisconsin statutes requires you to deliver to the contractor a written notice of any construction conditions you allege are defective before you file your lawsuit and you must provide your contractor or window or door supplier the opportunity to make an offer to repair or remedy the alleged construction defects You are not obligated to If destructive testing is required the contractor is to give five days advance notice to the claimant and any suppliers against whom a claim is asserted Within a reasonable time after testing and at its own expense the contractor is to return the dwelling to its pretesting condition If additional testing is needed the contractor is to deliver notice that such testing is needed and the claimant shall provide reasonable access to the dwelling Within 10 days after all inspection and testing the contractor shall serve on the claimant a notice of rejection or make an offer to repair pay Contribution Claims Against Door and Window Suppliers Section 89507 also details a contractors obligations to window and door suppliers against whom contribution claims are made 8 The section does not apply to a contractors right to seek contribution indemnity or recovery from any other supplier 9 The Act mandates that a contractor intending to make a contribution claim against a window or door supplier must serve the supplier with a written notice of the original claimants claim and the contractors own contribution claim within five days after the contractors receipt of the original claim Contractors must follow the same notice procedures as those imposed on claimants to put the supplier on notice of the contribution claim including notifying the supplier of the defect and affording it the opportunity to repair the subject windows or doors The supplier has 15 days within which to reject the claim In cases involving a contribution claim the contractor will have 25 not 15 days within which to respond to a claimants initial notice The contractor is to forward any response from the supplier to the original claimant and include in its written response rejecting a claim any settlement offer received from a supplier Consequences of Noncompliance If a claimant proceeds with litigation or arbitration without giving notice and a right to cure the new law requires the judge or arbitrator to either dismiss or stay the proceedings If the claimant received a brochure and notice from the contractor but failed to give the contractor notice and an opportunity to cure the action will be dismissed without prejudice If a claimant did not receive the brochure and notice the action is to be stayed pending compliance with the notification requirements 10 Figure 2 Process Under the Right to Cure Act Click on the image to expand Some critics of right to cure laws stress that their protections may be somewhat illusory For example under Wisconsins new law contractors are not penalized for failing to provide the initial brochure or notice Contractors also are not penalized for ignoring claims or reneging on agreements with claimants that arise from the right to cure process Likewise claimants are not required to respond to or accept any offer from a contractor In other words the law imposes no penalty on claimants who do nothing more than give the required notice and an opportunity to repair or remedy the alleged defects Practical Considerations for Consumers As the new law is implemented there are certain points that consumers should consider generally with respect to their assessment of defects delivery of the defect notice and timing of repairs First although claimants are not required to hire a construction expert to identify and analyze defects it may be necessary to do so in situations involving complexity beyond the ken of the normal person This is especially true because the claimant must provide a description of the claim in sufficient detail to explain the nature of the alleged defect 11 Another reason that an expert may be helpful is that claimants often do not have and can not obtain necessary documents from the contractor relating to the project and there is no requirement under the new law that the documents be produced Second claimants should be as thorough as possible in detecting defects and notifying contractors of all defects because if additional defects are discovered after an initial notice has gone out the claim process must start anew as to the newly discovered defects A construction defect discovered after an initial claim notice has been provided to a contractor may not be pursued in an action until the claimant complies with the notice and right to cure process as to the new defect 12 There may be some consolation for claimants facing statute of limitation issues who need to supplement their defect claim because the law provides that the limitation period is tolled during the notice of claim process provided that the limitation period did not expire before service of the initial notice of claim 13 Third some confusion may exist as to when a claimant must use certified mail to send notices to a contractor and when regular mail will suffice This is due to the interchangeable reference to serve or service and deliver or delivery in the two statutes comprising the Right to Cure Act Both Wis Stat sections 1011482 and 895072 reference that the claimant is to deliver the initial claim notice to the contractor Deliver is defined in Wis Stat section 101148 1c as depositing the notice in the US mail or with a commercial delivery service or personally giving the notice to the contractor There is no certified mail requirement Yet confusion comes in because Wis Stat section 89507 2 also provides that the contractors response deadline is within 15 days after the claimant serves a notice of claim 14 Serve or service means personal service or delivery by certified mail return receipt requested to a lastknown address 15 Confusion also may occur because while claimants may not need to send their initial claim notice by certified mail they apparently must send written notices rejecting a contractors settlement offer by certified mail since Wis Stat section 89507 2 requires them to serve the contractor with such notices again service by mail under that statute means certified mail In view of the potential confusion it seems prudent to err on the safe side and use the stricter mode of certified mail for all communications with the contractor during the claim process Finally there may be emergency situations when defects need to be repaired immediately Yet claimants should exercise caution when assessing whether to fix a defect before giving a contractor an opportunity to cure Under the law a claimant may make immediate repairs to a dwelling to protect the health and safety of its occupants 16 Thus in nonemergency situations not threatening life or limb claimants who jump the gun and have other contractors do repair work without first allowing the initial contractor to repair the defect may be barred from pursuing legal action because they have in effect destroyed the contractors right to cure Practical Considerations for Contractors Some contractors may view the Right to Cure Act and its brochure and notice requirements and the presuit claims process itself as onerous However the new law poses an opportunity for contractors to review and if necessary tweak or overhaul their written agreements Toward this end although the law does not require that the notice to the consumer be included in the contract and allows contractors to provide the notice via a separate writing it is prudent to include the notice to consumers in the contract When amending their contract forms to comply contractors counsel also may wish to ensure 17 notice of a consumers right to cancel under the Wisconsin Consumer Act 18 and the content prescribed by the Wisconsin Home Improvement Trade Practices Code 19 The Right to Cure Act provides that after service of the initial notice of claim a claimant contractor or supplier may agree to alter the notice of claim process 20 Contractors should be aware that any agreement to alter the process must be in writing If contractors put the agreement in writing they should be careful to avoid using language that is so broad that it violates Wisconsin laws prohibiting the inclusion of contract language exonerating the contractor from negligence or waiving a consumers claims 21 Like the claims procedures for consumers contractors making a contribution claim must give a supplier written notice and an opportunity to cure as a prerequisite to filing suit Like consumers contractors could end up waiving their claim if they do not honor the suppliers right to cure Contractors should recognize that they have a short deadline of five business days to notify the suppliers of a contribution claim Contractors should attempt to work in concert with suppliers in addressing consumers claims because the new law provides that the supplier and contractor are to use their best efforts to coordinate their 22 Practical Considerations for Suppliers Like contractors suppliers technically have no legal obligation to respond to a claim once they receive notice Suppliers should be aware however that if they do respond and their offer is accepted but they do not follow through the contractor may pursue the contribution claim in circuit court and may also file the suppliers offer and contractors acceptance in the circuit court action and the offer and acceptance create a rebuttable presumption that a binding and valid settlement agreement has been created and should be enforced by the court 23 A similar penalty does not apply to contractors if they renege on an offer accepted by a claimant Claimants are not allowed to file a contractors offer and acceptance if a contractor reneges Contractors door and window suppliers and consumers alike should not be cavalier or indifferent concerning the impact of the Right to Cure Act In view of the new laws potential benefits of facilitating communication promoting settlement and eliminating contractor surprise it behooves attorneys who consult with residential construction parties to understand the procedures under the new law so they can advise their clients accordingly Construction Lien Law Changes 2005 Wisconsin Act 204 made several changes to existing construction lien laws set forth in subchapter I of Wis Stat chapter 779 The changes based on recommendations by the Lien Law Committee of the State Bars Construction and Public Contract Section represent the most significant revisions to the lien laws in several decades 24 The Act became effective on April 11 2006 While the Act provides that it applies to improvements that visibly commence on the effective date of this subsection April 11 2006 25 it is reasonable to assume that the law applies to improvements that visibly commence on or after April 11 2006 It also is reasonable to assume that the prior lien laws would apply to lien claims relating to improvements commenced before April 11 2006 26 Changes were made in all lien contexts affecting commercial residential public and private projects Several changes apply to residential construction and fall under two categories of changes linguistic and procedural Linguistic Upgrades Numerous changes were made to synchronize and modernize wording For example the terms general contractor and contractor are changed to prime contractor 27 Reference to those who supply materials is changed from materialmen or material suppliers to simply suppliers 28 The Act expands the definition of improvement which previously was defined as including any building structure erection fixture demolition alteration excavation filling grading tiling planting clearing or landscaping which is built erected made or done on or to land for its permanent benefit Repairing or remodeling done on or for the lands benefit is now added to the list The Act eliminates the requirement that the improvement be done for the lands permanent benefit 29 The Act also revises the definition of prime contractor to specifically include construction managers and other service providers 30 Finally references to plans and specifications have been added to confirm the items status as a lienable activity 31 Procedural Upgrades The Act also makes several procedural changes Under previous law prime contractors that failed to give the requisite 10day lien notice could be saved and still claim a lien if subcontractors and suppliers had been paid and no subcontractor or supplier served a lien notice 32 This payment requirement was problematic because on large projects lien claimant prime contractors would be forced to satisfy the lien claims of subcontractors or suppliers even if they did not hire them 33 The new law specifies that the savings provision applies when the prime contractor claimants own subcontractors or suppliers as opposed to all subcontractors and suppliers on a project are paid and have waived their lien rights 34 Under prior law lien notices could only be served via hand delivery or by registered mail The new law expands the service options to allow service by personal delivery delivery by registered or certified mail service in a manner described for service of a summons under s 80114 or any other means of delivery in which the recipient makes written confirmation of the delivery 35 To make a lien claim a claimant must file the claim for a lien with the circuit court within six months after the claimant last performed work or furnished materials Although the lien claimant previously was required to deliver to the owner a notice of intention to file claim for a lien at least 30 days before filing the lien claim a lien claimant was not required to serve the owner with the claim for a lien once it was filed The new law changes that situation mandating that a lien claimant shall serve a copy of the claim for 36 Prior law allowed release of a lien if an owner filed with the clerk of court a bond or undertaking by two sureties Now only one surety is necessary to bond over a lien 37 Finally under prior law the private project theftbycontractor statute provided that personal liability for theft could be imposed on officers directors or agents of a corporation The new law recognizes the increasing use of business formations other than corporations by expanding liability to representatives of other entities It provides that in cases of theft by contractor in which the prime contractor or subcontractor is a corporation limited liability company or other legal entity except a sole proprietorship such misappropriation also shall be deemed theft by any officers directors members partners or agents responsible for the misappropriation 38 Contractor Education Act 2005 Wisconsin Act 200 known as the Contractor Education Act mandates the establishment of new continuing education requirements for residential contractors Its passage was intended to crack down on substandard work and enhance as a whole the professionalism and competency of Wisconsins residential contractors 39 Under Wisconsin law a contractor needs a certificate of financial responsibility from the DOC to engage in residential construction and get most necessary permits 40 To obtain the certificate contractors previously only had to meet certain insurance and bonding requirements The DOCs new rules will require that to obtain a building permit for residential construction in addition to obtaining insurance and bonding a person also must annually complete at least six hours of continuing education relevant to the persons professional area of expertise and attend at least one professional meeting or seminar designed for both building contractors and building inspectors 41 Persons applying for a certificate of financial responsibility for the first time will have to pass a DOC examination on the required continuing education courses The DOC will establish a contractor certification council to advise on the continuing education process The continuing education aspect of the new law does not go into effect until Jan 1 2008 After that date contractors will have to show proof of compliance with the continuing education requirements to the issuer of permits and the DOC may suspend or revoke a certificate of financial responsibility if a contractor fails to comply with the continuing education regulations The DOC also may suspend or revoke a building inspectors certification if the inspector knowingly authorizes issuance of a building permit to a contractor Other aspects of the new law went into effect in April 2006 The DOC now may suspend or revoke a certificate of financial responsibility if a contractor constructs a dwelling without a required permit is convicted of a crime related to the construction of a dwelling or is adjudged bankrupt on two or more occasions 42 These higher standards for certification when coupled with mandatory continuing education will aid in separating competent and financially responsible contractors from those who lack the character and competency to responsibly engage in residential construction Continuing education also will allow smallerscale contractors one or twoperson entities as well as their largerscale colleagues to keep abreast of ongoing changes in residential construction law In the past largerscale contractors perhaps had an educational advantage if they belonged to builders trade associations that routinely update their members on new developments Conclusion Some people tout the new Right to Cure Act as establishing a process that will promote construction defect dispute resolution and thereby avoid the complexity and cost attendant to construction litigation Other people believe that the Acts maze of deadlines and procedures may be counterproductive to that goal because all parties may need attorneys to help interpret the Act While it is true that contractors consumers and their attorneys may need time to become familiar with this law its salutary effect of promoting dispute resolution short of litigation should outweigh any perceived burden of a learning curve As with all new legislation there may be glitches and periodic need for judicial interpretation In the meantime the Right to Cure Act the lien law changes and the Contractor Education Act will have the laudable collective effect of modernizing residential construction law in Wisconsin Endnotes 1 Press Release from State Sen Luther S Olsen Consumers Win Under New Right to Cure Law March 27 2006 2 Michele Derus Home Remedy for

Frequently Asked Questions – Family & Medical Leave Act Q . What if an employer ’ s leave policy or a collective bargaining agreement provides greater family and medical leave benefits than the WFMLL or FMLA ? A . The leave policy or collective bargaining agreement controls and applies to the extent it is more generous . Q . If an employee is entitled to leave under both the WFMLL and the FMLA , how is the employee ’ s leave charged against the entitlement ? A . Leave use counts against the employee ’ s entitlement under both laws . The Wisconsin and federal leaves will run concurrently when an employee is entitled to both . An employee can not stack WFMLL and FMLA leave entitlements . Q . Do vacation leave , sick leave , and other leave or layoff periods count toward the 52 consecutive weeks of employment requirement for eligibility for leave under the WFMLL ? A . Yes . The number of hours the employee actually worked in those weeks is irrelevant . Q . Do vacation leave , sick leave and other leave count toward the 12 months of employment requirement for eligibility for leave under the FMLA ? A . Yes . The number of hours the employee actually worked is irrelevant so long as the employee was in paid status for 52 consecutive weeks . If the employee was on the payroll for any part of a week , that week counts as a full week of employment . Q . Under the FMLA , do the 12 months of employment required for eligibility need to be consecutive months ? A . No . All time worked for an employer is counted . Q . Under the WFMLL , do the 52 weeks of employment required for eligibility need to be consecutive ? A . Yes . The statute clearly states that the 52 weeks of employment must be consecutive . However , the Wisconsin Court of Appeals has ruled that any 52 consecutive weeks of employment for the employer will satisfy this requirement . The provision does not require that the 52 consecutive weeks immediately precede the request for leave . Q . Do vacation leave , sick leave , and other paid leave count toward the minimum 1000 hours during the 52 consecutive weeks of employment requirement under the WFMLL ? A . Yes . An employee can add the number of hours of paid vacation leave , paid sick leave , or other paid leave used during this period to the number of hours actually worked to satisfy the 1000 - hour requirement . The employee must accrue the 1000 hours during the 52 weeks prior to the request for leave . Q . Do vacation leave , sick leave , and other leave count toward the minimum 1250 hours of service requirement under the FMLA ? A . No . The FMLA differs from the WFMLL in this respect . The FMLA only counts hours actually worked . Overtime hours do count toward the FMLA total . Q . Under the WFMLL , in what time frame must an employee take leave in conjunction with the birth or adoption of a child ? A . The employee may begin this leave prior to , on , or after the birth or adoption ; however , the employee must begin the leave within 16 weeks before or after the birth or adoption . Q . Is there a similar requirement under the FMLA for leave taken in conjunction with the birth , placement , or adoption of a child ? A . Yes .

Methylphenidate Withdrawal Symptoms and Signs and Detoxification Article Summary Usage of Methylphenidate and Withdrawal Effects Symptoms and Signs of Methylphenidate Withdrawal Withdrawing from Methylphenidate Treatment Methods and Options for Help Detoxing Addiction Treatment Rehab and Recovery Questions and Answers FAQ Methylphenidate withdrawal may occur when someone suddenly stops taking any drug containing methylphenidate as the active ingredient These drugs which include Concerta Metadate Methylin and Ritalin are typically used to treat ADHD or narcolepsy However some people abuse methylphenidate both as a recreational drug and as a performanceenhancing drug As a recreational drug concentrated doses of methylphenidate cause a euphoric high The drug also reduces appetite so some people illicitly use it as a diet aid Another common illicit use of methylphenidate is to enhance academic performance since it boosts alertness memory and focus even in individuals without ADHD Some people who abuse methylphenidate develop a psychological need for the drug because they believe that they need it to function normally or to continue performing at the same level Users can develop tolerance over time as it takes larger amounts of the drug to produce the same effect Because of this tolerance effect physical dependence can develop in addition to psychological addiction Usage of Methylphenidate and Withdrawal Effects In most cases of legitimate methylphenidate use withdrawal symptoms are not a problem when the user stops taking the medication People who abuse methylphenidate are more likely to experience withdrawal symptoms after quitting Methylphenidate abuse is defined as any use outside the prescribed dose This can include someone who has a prescription for the drug but takes it more frequently or in higher doses than he or she is supposed to It can also include individuals without a prescription for methylphenidate who take the drug to get high to help suppress appetite or to increase academic performance Illicit use of detoxification from the drug is an important health concern for people who abuse this drug Symptoms and Signs of Methylphenidate Withdrawal Methylphenidate withdrawal symptoms can be both physical and mental Fatigue and disturbed sleep patterns are common signs of methylphenidate withdrawal Users undergoing detoxification also report cravings for methylphenidate Some users develop depression after halting methylphenidate use One reason that the cessation of methylphenidate triggers depression is that the drug stimulates dopamine production in the brain Dopamine causes feelings of pleasure and helps prevent depression Therefore when a user stops taking methylphenidate the sudden lack of dopamine can bring on depression The cessation of the drug can also unmask preexisting depression that has gone untreated Because of this connection with depression suddenly stopping methylphenidate use is not advised Preventing Prescription Stimulant Abuse Many collegeage individuals acquire stimulant medications despite not have a prescription for them This is a farreaching problem that may enable misuse A 2016 Recovery Brands survey revealed that a whopping 63 of young people 18 to 28 years old acquire their prescription stimulants through their friends Another 204 get their hands on them from a family member almost 20 via people they know at school and only 148 by means of an illicit dealer Medical stimulant users can reduce the problem by keeping track of their medications JourneyPure Bowling Green Bowling

Methylphenidate Treatment Methods and Options for Help Methylphenidate withdrawal treatment also known as detoxification is usually done under medical supervision A doctor prescribes increasingly lower doses over time so that withdrawal is gradual instead of sudden A methylphenidate user may choose an inpatient or outpatient program for treatment An inpatient program involves staying in the hospital or a rehab center full time during the course of treatment This option works well for heavy methylphenidate users because detoxification and recovery can be monitored consistently by medical professionals A hospital program typically involves more intensive monitoring by a doctor while an inpatient rehab center has medical staff on call if the patient needs help At a rehab center the patient interacts with other recovering drug abusers and addicts in a supportive environment that encourages recovery An outpatient clinic is an alternative option for people who need to continue attending school or work while participating in treatment In an outpatient program the recovering addict visits the clinic on a regular basis which may be every day or a few times each week but continues to live at home throughout the course of treatment Methylphenidate withdrawal treatment is just the first step of treatment the patient needs to continue with psychological counseling cognitive behavioral therapy or other treatment after the detoxification phase is complete Detoxing Addiction Treatment Rehab and Recovery After the detoxification process has begun and the individual has started to decrease the use of methylphenidate under medical supervision other forms of treatment are introduced Individual and group counseling are often a major part of treatment Family counseling may also be included if the recovering addicts family is interested in participating Cognitive behavioral therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for drug abuse since it teaches the recovering addict how to recognize situations where temptation might exist and how to avoid succumbing to temptation Other potential treatment methods may include participation in a 12step program and holistic treatment options Successful recovery is possible with help and many people overcome methylphenidate abuse and addiction using a program of detoxification followed by longterm treatment

top design portfolios is a great way to unleash your creativity Here are our top picks Dana Meir Date March 26 2018 Est Read time 4 min Good design is innovative stated the highly influential industrial designer Dieter Rams in his list of ten principles Yet it seems that breaking new ground with neverbeforeseen website designs is becoming increasingly challenging these days with almost

works themselves really pop out thanks to the contrast created Ready for take off 2 Dennis Krawec What do you get when you mix the 80s Japanese pop culture and outlandish design elements from the dawn of the Internet Answer Dennis Krawecs portfolio We just cant keep our eyes away from those candy color combinations The overlapping images text and GIFs come together to form a messy yet highly aesthetic layout With unique visuals like these you cant help but get immersed in this wonderfully eclectic world 3 Thai Pham Photography Despite having such a diverse portfolio photographer Thai Pham chose to display one single image above the fold on his homepage a grainy dreamy visual that makes you want to delve inside for more Scroll down to discover an impressive collection of highly stylized editorial fashion and wedding photographs The images are displayed in an uneven grid layout adding some spice to the otherwise clean minimalistic aesthetics 4 Steve Wolf Did someone say crisp With the super sharp retina ready visuals on Steve Wolfs portfolio it almost feels like you can reach out and grab the products photographed The organized grid layout and screentoscreen visuals put the emphasis on the works themselves creating a true branding feast A subtle hover effect on each image reveals the name of the project while keeping text to a minimum The best thing about it You can create your own website in a similar style using Steve Wolfs signature Wix template going behindthescenes and making it your own 5 Lena Steinkühler Ever wanted to take a bite out of your screen The slideshow images on the top fold of Lena Steinkühlers portfolio certainly get our mouths watering Theyre fullscreen and intriguing with colorful and somewhat surreal 3D visuals The big bold text is inviting and also happens to be a prominent trend in web design More visual delights await in a clean grid further down Bon appétit 6 Reut Chen Sometimes a classic layout is exactly what a website needs especially when you have such delicate and ornate works to offer to the online world Reut Chen created an interesting contrast between textured organic photographs and simple geometric text Dive deeper into each project for more fascinating combinations of handmade and digitally crafted designs 7 Two One Studio Life is all about balance right It seems that Two One Studio have got it right their website is elegant and aesthetic while maintaining the sense that a human hand created it The rough shots of the NYC subway create a real concrete jungle feel The visual elements are layered one on top of the other just like a wall that has been graffitied over and over again The result An unusual mix that further echoes the Big Apples diversity 8 Max Montgomery There are times when less really is more Max Montgomerys photography portfolio is exactly what it needs to be a no nonsense showcase of his works The use of white space gives each image the air it deserves Although the big sansserif text on the photos isnt exactly subtle it creates a unified look and doesnt steal the show With powerful photos like these and an impressive array of clients including Apple Music Yves Saint Laurent and more this portfolio really doesnt need anything else Get in Touch Get in Touch Get in Touch Get in Touch

BETA BETA Features Resources FAQ Forum Wix Code Forum Community Discussion Counting the sum of the values of cells Алиса Трусенкова 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Dec 28 2017 Counting the sum of the values of cells 1380 views I have a database and I need to count from the values of some cells and display them in the final For example I have three fields one I enter the value 10 the other the value 12 the third the value 5 so the count will be 27 and I need to specify this in a separate field Whether it is possible to do this with the help of code or standard tools of Wix code Reply 0 Yisrael Wix Admin 522 Likes 69 Top Comments Dec 28 2017 Hi Welcome to WixCode You dont say if the field for the total is also in the database collection or is it only a display field on the screen Yisrael Reply 0 Алиса Трусенкова 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Dec 28 2017 Edited Dec 28 2017 The truth is for now I have not adding that field yet since I dont know which one is better The point is that customer can see the total value after filling the form Reply 0 Alli A 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Dec 29 2017 I also have a database with several cells containing values I would like to have totaled in a SUM column Just like with the original question lets say there are cells valued at 3 5 10 2 I want a new cell within the database to add up the values to 20 To clarify for Yisrael ideally I would like to see the total shown in the database and also displayed on the screen in a lightbox after the survey I have created is submitted The lightbox is already created and I just want to add a field showing the sum total of the applicants results Thank you Reply 0 Liran Kurtz WIX Moderator 190 Likes 9 Top Comments Dec 30 2017 Hi Theres no built in option for that but you can do that using code bot showing the value and putting in the database See here how to create the sum field before adding an entry to database Then you can either use code or connection to show the number that has been calculated Liran Reply 0 Taylor A 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Jan 5 Thank you for the info Liran Im too am trying to do exactly what is described in the original two questions but Im struggling with writing the code to add the sum field Ive followed the beforeInsert guide to add a hook before a new field is inserted in the database but the actual code required for the newly inserted field to sum 15 other fields has become a roadblock for me as Ive never written code Any chance you can provide some coding help to sum my database fields titled Q1 Q2 Q3Q15 each returning a value 17 Taylor Reply 0 Liran Kurtz WIX Moderator 190 Likes 9 Top Comments Jan 8 Hi Taylor Note that beforeInsert is having all the info that is submitted so assuming youre submitting all of Q1 Q2 Q15 together and that they are numbers and having a

sum value to the inserted record submittedItemsum sum return submittedItem Liran Reply 0 Алиса Трусенкова 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Jan 8 Hi Liran Thank you so much about this information But there are also a question about code for now I have a database consisting of column Primary Field text several columns number and column sum also number Ive created a hook used a code above changing myCollection name but when I trying to fill the fields in Preview mode in the sum field it showing null instead of sum Is there are something should be done before Reply 0 Taylor A 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Jan 8 Thanks Liran The Q1 Q2Q15 data is all submitted together along with some more basic text data like name age etc Since Im only interested in adding together the number values Q1 Q15 would I need to create an array or name each individual column for which i want to sum With the code youve so generously provided Im only getting sum field created for new entries no calculating is taking place Reply 0 Liran Kurtz WIX Moderator 190 Likes 9 Top Comments Jan 10 Hi Alissa Note that my code goes over all the submitted data If you want to take only the numbers you should change it a

the live database to the text box to show the score after the completeion of the survey I can get it work as intended in the sandbox version but not in the live version I read in Wix Support that I am unable to link a created field like my new sum field to the schema in the live database only in the sandbox database Is that true Reply 0 Алиса Трусенкова 0 Likes 0 Top Comments Jan 22 Sorry for the

Florida Supreme Court considers amendment to ban greyhound racing By Jake Stofan Posted Wed 619 PM Aug 29 2018 TALLAHASSEE Fla CAPITOL NEWS SERVICE The State Supreme Court heard arguments Wednesday morning on whether to keep a constitutional amendment banning greyhound racing on the November ballot Amendment 13 would end greyhound racing in the state by 2020 but allow tracks to continue offering slots and card rooms Breeders argued before the State Supreme Court that the ballot language misleads voters by convincing them the changes are all about the dogs If this passes there will be in effect a vote for freestanding casinos in the state of Florida said Major Harding an attorney representing the Committee to Support Greyhounds Supporters of the amendment say if anything the amendment will reduce gambling in the state Nothing is expanded something is eliminated dog racing said Stephen Turner with the Committee to Protect Dogs Paramutual facilities have only been allowed to operate card rooms and slot machines if they also run greyhounds There have been attempts in the Legislature to allow the card rooms to operate independently for years Amendment 13 was taken off the ballot by a lower court earlier this month The ruling found the ballot summary didnt inform voters Floridians could still legally place bets on out of state dog races The State argues the amendment clearly states the amendment only ends live racing within the state Not only do voters understand that under this amendment races in other states are going to be unaffected but they also are going to read what the language says said Deputy Solicitor General Jordan Pratt After the Supreme Court hearing both sides felt confident the court would rule in their favor A ruling is likely to come before the November election but when trying to predict how the court will act there are no safe bets Most elections supervisors plan to send their ballots to the printer by September 4th at the latest If the court hasnt ruled by then Amendment 13 will still appear on the ballot Tuesday Morning Forecast

Fashion A Celebrity Esthetician on the Powerful Impact of a French Skincare Routine by Nada Abouarrage January 27 2018 1259 pm Photographs by Craig McDean Styled by Edward Enninful Hair by Orlando Pita for Orlando Pita Play Makeup by Peter Philips for Dior Manicures by Michelle Saunders for Essie at Forward Artists Set design by Piers Hanmer Celebrity esthetician Angela Caglia spent years training as a facialist in France but is now based in the US working with clients like supermodel Helena Christensen and actress Minnie Driver in New York and Los Angeles Here Caglia opens up about the differences in the way her clients approach skincare in each city her tips for the best products and more With your extensive training in France what unique techniques do you bring to your facials in the US My French skincare training is very influential in my facial practice Its how I learned 23 years ago The French training begins with a thorough assessment of the skin including indepth questioning regarding lifestylerelated issues ie stress levels skin care routines diet medications and exercise I was trained and believe in the ART OF THE FACIAL as I like to call it Its about effective and relaxing European massage techniques using aromatherapy and giving the most soothing relaxing facial possible a multisensorial experience My philosophy includes centering the client with crystals the tone of my voice and the art of What are the main differences you see between French facial techniques and US techniques The French facial techniques include more massage and touch a more holistic approach after all the French pioneered the facial In contrast US facials are quicker and medically focused ie with brighter lights plastic gloves more machines overall less ambiance I incorporate both I sneak in the machines after my clients are drifting off The goal is to always have them on the brink of sleep with the lighting aromas sounds and touch They leave with my signature Hollywood Glow but also walk away renewed at peace and very happy Loading View on Instagram What are the biggest misconceptions people have about getting facials The biggest misconception is that they will break out after There are no new pimples after my facials Its about using the right products on the right skin types and your choices in the treatment room I do a lot of mixing in my back bar if needed There are ways to cause inflammation and ways to calm inflammation its my job to always be on top of what works best for each of my clients Another misconception is that you will be red after a facial and cant go out in public afterwards Thats not the case with my facials I was trained over 23 years ago by my French paramedical esthetician mentor Chantal Tourtin of Yonka Paris on how to do extractions the French Way a unique and gentle process whereby the client is more comfortable during the process and less red What differences do you see between your clients in New York and LA My New York clientele is similar to my European clientele in terms of skin They tend to wear less makeup and have a more dedicated but simple skin care routine Some of my LA clients are more challenging because their workouts are more extreme like hot yoga which can wreak havoc on our skin if you are not caring for it immediately after the class Also some sunscreens clog more than others I recommend using zinc oxideinfused sunscreens because they calm inflammation Loading View on Instagram What facial treatments do you recommend for clients How do you incorporate modern techniques into your treatment The absolute first thing I do with a client is ask them what their concerns are with their skin I then tailor the facial to that I specialize in lifting tightening and retexturing treatments I incorporate the best in antiaging technology like RF radio frequency LED light Micro current and a new heat light therapy machine I have that stimulates collagen synthesis How often do you recommend your clients facials Some of my clients come in every two weeks and we mix it up I wish everyone could come in that often but its not realistic for many I recommend at least once a month so we can keep up the results What are your best at home tips to help keep skin healthy in between appointments I recommend using my La Vie en Rose Face Roller along with my own ecoluxe skincare line so you can do your own at home facial type treatments in between appointments What ingredients do you like to work with on the skin I like to work with Meadowfoam Seed Oil Its the hero ingredient of my skincare line and similar in structure to our own sebum so it penetrates beautifully and doesnt cause acne rather it calms inflammation and gives an immediate result and glow What are your best skincare tips Take your makeup off every night before sleep Do it before you get too tired or you may be tempted to skip the step Less is more dont use too many products Sleep is very important for a bright healthy complexion and the best time to regenerate with a good serum or oil Get monthly facials so you have an expert seeing the changes in your skin and helping you with treatments and the right products Read the ingredients of the products you are using I would stay away from parabens phthalates propylene glycol silicones artificial coloring or fragrance Also in choosing a natural line be cautious of ones with too many essential oils which may smell heavenly perfume like but may also cause redness or irritation Keywords French Facial Angela Caglia Celebrity Esthetician

Sierra Club criticizes use of clay to stem red tide outbreak Posted September 25 2018 by Seán Kinane filed under News and Public Affairs Share this On Monday Governor Rick Scotts office announced the state would spend nearly 22 million to expand research into ways to control the massive red tide outbreak along the Gulf Coast of Florida One experimental treatment is to use ozone to kill red tide algae Another is to use a form of specialized clay to quell the effects of red tide But opponents are skeptical That includes the Florida chapter director with Sierra Club Frank Jackalone Theyve experimented with clay before Mote Marine Laboratory has been experimenting with clay for fifteen years And clay has not proven to be the panacea and the instant solution that people thought it would be It produces other ecological effects that could be far worse So what youre doing is youre spreading all this clay all over this very large red tide area The clay then combines with the red tide organism and theoretically sinks it to the bottom of the Gulf where then it coats the Gulf of Mexico And then it kills other sea life in the process So this may be a sure way of killing the Gulf longterm just to get rid of the red tide bloom Let me remind your listeners about the BP oil spill disaster The solution that we came up with unfortunately was spraying Corexit over the BP oil spill Corexit is a dispersant and it dispersed the oil but the oil didnt go away And the Corexit then caused additional problems in the Gulf of Mexico So that now you had two problems the oil residual plus the toxic dispersant That made the Gulf of Mexico that much more sick And we dont want to repeat that with this kind of solution The other thing Ill mention is that this clay is an experimental clay thats coming from China So it is highly dependent on our being able to buy the clay from China getting adequate supplies then testing it in the Gulf of Mexico to make sure that it works making sure that there arent other harmful effects And its not just clay They combine the clay with an artificial polymer So that then you really have a substance that is foreign to the Gulf of Mexico going in there And nobody really knows what the impacts will be So if anybody thinks this is a quick fix its not This is something theyre going to research and test over several years before they apply it to the Gulf as a whole And the better solution is to immediately take action to enforce our clean water laws in the state of Florida stop the pollution that is fueling these red tide blooms Listen 0000 0000 Heres a link to the FWC Red Tide FAQ Tags Corexit red tide Seán Kinane Sierra Club WMNF News Sorry the browser you are using is not currently supported Disqus actively supports the following browsers Firefox Chrome Internet Explorer 11 Safari Backwaterbradenton 2 months ago Its important to point out that Mote monitors the open waters of Sarasota Bay for impacts of stormwater runoff including nutrient loads that contribute to proliferation of red tide This monitoring program for MS4 permits was developed in collaboration with Mote CDM then consultant to Sarasota Co and FDEP with close family ties between employees of Mote and CDM Conflicts of interest aside Mote and others including the NEP continue to cast a blind eye on these inputs without regular monitoring of the very point discharges that contribute to water quality and red tide problems Why Because they receive funding Diswards 3 months ago

seek seek to previous 1 2 6 seek to 10 20 60 Bishop Joseph Cistone 69 passed away in his home Monday night Saginaw Township Police Chief Don Pussehl told TV5 a 911 call was placed at 1020 am on Oct 16 from Cistones home and when officials arrived he had already passed away Cistone the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Saginaw announced in February that he was diagnosed with lung cancer The diocese has since said his cancer had spread to other areas of his body The diocese has released the following statement on Oct 16 The Most Rev Joseph R Cistone Bishop of Saginaw died in his home during the night He had been scheduled for a medical procedure today to relieve the symptoms of lung cancer The diocese said Cistone died of natural causes A funeral mass will be held on Tuesday Oct 23 at 11 am at the Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption 615 Hoyt Ave in Saginaw Visitation will take place at the cathedral on Sunday Oct 21 from 2 pm until 8 pm and Monday Oct 22 from 9 am to 8 pm Jimmy Greene was both a friend of the bishops and his cancer coach The two had a close friendship that started when they met at a Saginaw Spirit game years ago In more recent times Cistone was a guide for Greenes faith and Greene as a cancer survivor guided the bishop through the hardships of his lung cancer Greene said Cistone was known for his honesty Incredibly honest maybe to a point where some people think youre too honest But he really was an incredibly deeply caring man I dont think there was ever a time where his faith was shaken by the church or any of the things affecting it But he was strong incredibly strong willed Just a great man of faith Greene said Greene said he will continue to honor his friend and keep Cistones teachings in his heart space play pause q unload stop f fullscreen

was inspiring for students and staff at Nouvel Catholic Schools They held a mass at the high school in Cistones honor on Tuesday Superintendent Cormac Lynn said Cistone meant a lot Very humble guy very open Would always walk down the hallways always say hello Wanted to know what was going on Treated everyone normal It wasnt the bishop is walking down the hall He was just here doing his job trying to be a role model and help guide us in our faith So we appreciate that Lynn said Cistone was supposed to host a holy hour at the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church in Midland on Tuesday That service was still held in his honor space play pause q unload stop f fullscreen shift slower faster volume m mute seek seek to previous 1 2 6 seek to 10 20 60 Very sorrowful Its a shock We lost a wonderful shepherd for our flock here said Sarah Hoking parishioner Parishioners said even though Cistone was not at the mass the memories of him were His smile He just knew how to connect with everybody in the room When we would have events here he would go back into the kitchen and thanks the workers there Those are people normally forgotten He just knew how to touch every member of our family Hoking said Cistones teachings will live on He may be gone but the message is still here His love for us as a flock is still here We can take his memory and his messages and just be better

pastor of All Saints Parish in Bay City Cabrera said Cistone has left behind a legacy that will live on Bishop Cistone was a very strong man in the faith and in his leadership And he did a lot of things for our diocese planning parishes renewal of the cathedral and the holy hours he did in many of our churches He was always there with the people So we are going to greatly miss him Cabrera said Despite Cistones battle with cancer Cabrera said he seemed to be in good spirits this past Sunday I think were all in shock because on Sunday we were with him at the cathedral and the ministry commission mass And we knew he was struggling with his cancer but we never thought he was going to leave that fast Cabrera said Looking back Cabrera said Cistones sermon on Sunday was one that was strangely fitting and will stick with him forever The last homily that he gave on Sunday was about the question of the rich young man what must I do to inherit eternal life It was very powerful to hear him on Sunday Cabrera said Cabrera spent his day on Tuesday praying and reflecting on the fond memories he will always have of the bishop When I was doing my biblical studies in Rome he came to visit me And we went out for dinner Its something I will forever remember Cabrera said Archbishop of Detroit Allen H Vigneron responded to Cistones death with the following statement Since his first days in Saginaw Bishop Cistone was committed to being a loving and zealous pastor for his priests and his people I offer them and the bishops family my heartfelt condolences For myself Ive lost a friend and a brother In a year of many challenges and particularly in these last months of his struggle with cancer I was edified by the confident hope with which he faced his illness May the Lord welcome him home this day Michigan Catholic Conference President and CEO Paul Long released the following statement Michigan Catholic Conference shares its profound sorrow with the parishioners clergy and family of Bishop Joseph Cistone who passed away unexpectedly last night We remember the joy in which he approached his ministry as bishop and his service to this organization as a member of the Board of Directors Bishop Cistone was an incredibly fine and good man He dedicated his life to serving the Lord as a priest and bishop and he did so with kindness compassion and with a tremendous sense of the pastoral He strongly believed in MCCs mission to advocate for the common good of society Cistone was appointed Bishop of Saginaw on May 20 2009 Before that he was an Auxiliary Bishop for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia Read his biography here He lately had been dealing with sexual abuse allegations against priests in the Saginaw area In April he hired a retired judge to handle inquiries by victims and law enforcement saying the 11county diocese needed a fresh start during a very distressing time The Rev Robert DeLand recently pleaded no contest to criminal sexual conduct but the plea was rejected by a judge and a trial is planned The diocese said in time a new bishop will be appointed but it is unclear when that will be space play pause q unload stop f fullscreen shift slower faster volume m mute seek seek to previous 1 2 6 seek to 10 20 60 In the meantime Pope Francis has appointed the Most Rev Walter A Hurley Bishop Emeritus of Grand Rapids as Apostolic Administrator for the diocese Hurley will serve as the caretaker for the diocese during this transition My first concern is to assist with the funeral of Bishop Cistone and to assist with the sense of loss that priests and people feel at the passing of this wonderful man Hurley said Hurley is excited about his role to lead the diocese of Saginaw forward So much of out attention needs to be focused on the funeral for Bishop Cistone who has served with distinction over these many years Hurley said Hurley said he realizes there are a lot of people still mourning the loss of Cistone and he has a message for them You need to cherish the memories that you have When people die we need to reflect on what they have been for us But in the midst of that mourning we as a Catholic people always find hope And the hope doesnt rest in ourselves it rests on Gods grace and Gods blessings And then to value if you will the things that were important to him I mean I think he brought a certain joy to things I think its a powerful thing for us to cherish and remember that too and try to live out those things in He said it could be up to a year before a permanent bishop is named While Hurley said he is honored to be here he has no desire to stay for the long run Im 81yearsold So thats not going to happen I mean my next move is probably to the nursing home Hurley said Copyright 2018 WNEM Meredith

The Definitive List of Every Disney Princess and Her Prince Charming Walt Disney Pictures The men that all of the Disney Princesses fell in love with while Moana was too busy saving the world . Talia Saville Sep 29 , 2016 Moana Walt Disney Pictures We have come to learn over the weekend that Moana , Disney ' s newest Princess , will have no love interest in the upcoming Disney film . “ There is no romance in the movie , ” Director John Musker said Thursday at Comic - Con , according to Entertainment Weekly . Instead , they explained , the movie is focused on the young heroine finding herself . Okay , so we are all about this . Disney has long been criticized for its princesses focusing their lives ( or at least their movies ) on finding love . It is inspiring to see the company taking this feedback and bringing its films into the 21st century . Because of this recent Moana news , we were inspired to do a little reflecting on the past Disney Princesses and their love interests . Unfortunately , we ' ve come to find that Moana will be spending a lot of Disney Princess parties at an empty single ' s Princess Snow White and The Prince Ah , Snow White . The infamous " Someday My Prince Will Come " . Snow White , unfortunately , was pushed around her entire life by her evil step mother , who was jealous of her beauty . So from the start , this film does an excellent job of teaching women that their primary value in society is their looks . After almost being killed by the huntsman and being taken in by the seven dwarves , Snow White proves that women DO have another value : cooking and cleaning for men . Eventually she is risen from Princess Cinderella and Prince Charming Cinderella has spent her time after her father ' s passing being forced to do all of the cleaning and cooking for her step family . When she finally is given the chance of a lifetime through the appearance of her fairy godmother , what does Cinderella wish for ? Her father to come back to life ? A chance to escape her evil family ? Some money to start her own cleaning business ? Nah . She asks for a dress and a carriage . She then can make her way to the ball and charm Prince Charming into would n ' t be in love simply through a beautiful face , an extravagant gown , and of course , a single wordless dance . It ' s the dream : falling in love before the guy even knows your name . Definitely a recipe for happily ever after . Good thing Cinderella lost that glass slipper - or she would have never escaped her evil stepfamily and found her true love ! Princess Aurora and Prince Phillip At birth Aurora is destined to be betrothed to Prince Phillip . Luckily , they ' ve walked with each other " Once Upon A Dream " , so the whole betrothal thing is n ' t really cramping her style . However , the evil Maleficent manages to curse Aurora , which causes her to fall into a deep sleep that only " true love ' s first kiss can break " . I mean really Disney ? Are n ' t there any other cures out there ? Anyway . Prince Phillip comes in to save the day obviously enough to cause them to fall in love , right ? Princess Ariel and Prince Eric Ariel is the epitome of teen angst . Eric , all she wants is to be " Part of Your World " ! And her dang father wo n ' t let her . Backstory on this one rings true to Disney : Ariel falls in love with Eric simply because , you know , he ' s handsome . He hears her singing and falls back in love with her ( okay , she also did save his life ) . She trades her voice for a pair of legs and she almost loses him to the evil Ursula ahem mistake . Princess Belle and The Beast So Belle does pull us out of the falling in love after two minutes arena . We give the girl props for sticking to her guns and actually falling in love with someone who she has had more than a dance and a duet with . AND she actively is against the constant advances of Gaston , who spews out charming lines such as " It ’ s not right for a woman to read . She gets ideas and starts thinking . " Groan . In terms of love interests , we ' d give Belle and big old Disney A+ for not judging a book by its cover and learning to love someone for who they are deep down . Princess Jasmine and Aladdin Disney is starting to move up in the world , as they are now at least demonstrating that it is not realistic to fall in love with someone after two minutes . That being said , Jasmine does make some questionable moves . Letting a new suitor ride her around on a magic carpet ? Did n ' t the Sultan ever teach Jasmine about " Stranger Danger " ? ! She does take a strong stance on not wanting to marry just anyone ( ahem Snow White could learn a thing or two ) , so we ' ll give Jasmine some credit for that . Princess Pocahontas and John Smith Now we ' re truly getting into the era of Disney Princesses with personalities . . . YES us women can do more than just sing and cook and look beautiful ! Pocahontas is fighting to save her people , and she is not afraid to teach old Johnny boy a few lessons in the process ! The most empowering moment from this film ( and there are quite a few ! ) is when Pocahontas chooses to stick with her tribe rather than follow John Smith back to the New World . Finally a movie where the princess does Princess Mulan and General Li Shang Alright . We all know it . Mulan is a badass . She pretends to be a man in order to replace her father in the army . She pulls all of her own weight and is never caught up in the typical girly standards usually cast upon Disney Princesses . Of course , she does fall in love throughout the movie . But it is a gradual process that builds through friendship and trust , which we feel is a much better lesson than the prior Disney way of ' falling in love after a single song ' . Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen Tiana had clearly seen Cinderella , because when she gets her one wish , she does n ' t wish for a dress . She opens up her own restaurant and in the process falls in love with Prince Naveen . Throughout the film she teaches him the value of hard work and their relationship develops through test and trials . Tiana is arguably the most empowering princess in the Disney Princess series , as she has her own dreams and pursues them . She IS about to give it all up to remain a frog with her true love Princess Rapunzel and Flynn Rider Yet another spunky princess being dominated by an evil and jealous woman , Rapunzel simply longs for freedom and love . Unlike the other captive princesses , Rapunzel does not fall in love with the first man she meets . She simply convinces Flynn to help her explore the world and get her to see the lanterns on her birthday ( eventually leading her to find her parents and the true story of her life ) . Flynn and Rapunzel DO fall in love , but it is definitely not the main focus of the film . AND he still completely shallow . Princess Merida Merida is Moana ' s only single leading lady : the only other Disney Princess who had no love interest in her film . The film does revolve around Merida trying to fight off her potential suitors and not get married , but you know , Disney apparently knows few other ways for the Princesses to prove their empowerment . Still , Merida is kind , bold and brave . So we ca n ' t help but love her . Princess Elsa and Princess Anna Although Anna and Elsa are n ' t technically Disney Princesses , they deserve an honorable mention . Elsa finally states what we have all been thinking for years : " You ca n ' t marry a man you just met ! " So we appreciate her for that . And we should cut Anna some slack . . . she really did n ' t know any better , having grown up in isolation . Although Anna does presumably end up with Kristoff , at least in this Disney film , true love is about a sisterly bond , not a romanic love that developed after two minutes . giphy . com So , there you have it . The definitive sequential history of Disney Princess love . Although Moana will not have a lot of friends at the single ' s table , there are quite a few empowering princesses that she ' ll join ranks with . Disney has without a doubt continued to modernize their stories , and we can not wait to watch Moana on the big screen ! We hope you love the products we recommend !

torah chants during kapparot ברוך הבא בשם יהוה July 20 2017 at 216 pm When I chant the Ketubim sex is the last thing on my mind I am too old to catch the chickens anymore Maybe I should train goats to come to me as your people have done for romance You can only use a chicken once but you folks have managed to share a single goat with your entire village each and every day without charging See how much smarter and efficient your people are than Jews Kudos you got me Swej kcuf July 20 2017 at 413 pm You might be too old for the chicken but for sure you can use a harvested shofar to enjoy greaseless or lubricated to enjoy an anal massage to reach a climax just like haSHem invented under the romantic moonlight of the desert You bestiality of haShems torah followers always accuse others of what you are guilty of Sick simply sick ברוך הבא בשם יהוה July 21 2017 at 418 pm Yes you are we agree on something then Demonrats always accuse others of what they are most guilty of Mamzer Swej kcuf July 22 2017 at 938 am You are a halouf who thinks its smarter than the average Hebrew monkeys who got 40 desert years lost Think about it considering that 1 desert year 7 human years now What did the followers of haShem do to stay amused Did they start with inbreeding incest pedophilia then kosher bestiality of torah practices to stay amused or you think the order of what was kosher to stay amused differ What did the desert lost tribes do for water Camel urine and calfs piss was kosher to drink or not You know that many of the kosher acts that were invented by haSHem to keep your kind amused still in practice today and mainly pedophilia and incest are OK Now your little halouf of a Mamzer do share your thought if you are capable of such act without being influenced by the teaching of the synagogues of haShem the beast ברוך הבא בשם יהוה July 22 2017 at 1154 am See you dont even know why we wandered in the desert for 40 years It had nothing to do with shagging goats or little boys Moshe lost a shekel You do know what the INRI stands for in red in my avatar Probably not because you are so foul Yeshua Nazaret Rex Yahudah in Aramaic Swej kcuf July 22 2017 at 1007 pm Everyone know why your kind wondered the desert to perfect the fine art of kosher bestiality of torah inbreeding incest and pedophilia Now I dont give a rats ass what you think the Latin phrase means however I know you jews always like to claim successful people If you truly believe that he was the king how do you explain the holiest ass wipe scripture of yours say Jesus is in hell getting boiled with hot excrement or that Mary is whore When I think that jews cant get any lower you always surprise me and reach a new low Zaki Mohammed July 25 2017 at 832 am Praise be to Allaah Im a muslim because I love Jesus peace be up on him Our beliefs concerning the Messiah Eesa ibn Maryam Jesus the son of Mary peace be upon him are those indicated by the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of our Messenger Muhammad peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him We believe that Eesa peace be upon him was one of the slaves of Allaah and one of His noble Messengers Allaah sent him to the Children of Israel to call them to believe in Allaah alone and worship Him alone Allaah says interpretation of the meaning And remember when Eesa Jesus son of Maryam Mary said O Children of Israel I am the Messenger of Allaah unto you confirming the Tawraat Torah which came before me and giving glad tidings of a Messenger to come after me whose name shall be Ahmad But when he Ahmad ie Muhammad came to them with clear proofs they said This is plain magic Zaki Mohammed July 25 2017 at 835 am But the Messiah Eesa Jesus said O Children of Israel Worship Allaah my Lord and your Lord Verily whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allaah then Allaah has forbidden Paradise to him and the Fire will be his abode And for the Zaalimoon polytheists and wrongdoers there are no helpers Harry McNicholas August 16 2017 at 926 pm Stick to the damn subject and get off the religious crap What is the unemployment rate in Saudi Arabia What are they doing about the mass unemployment of young people Mevlânâ Music September 6 2017 at 305 am Harry let them be I start to feel amused reading them three banters Harry McNicholas September 6 2017 at 350 am You are right I am simply embarrassed to have Americans being so stupid Zaki Mohammed July 25 2017 at 822 am Profphet Moosa Bani Israel When Prophet Musa alayhis salam and his people fled from the Egyptians their trials were far from over After they had safely crossed the sea they came upon some people who were worshiping idols The children of Israel asked Prophet Musa alayhis salam to make an idol for them and he had to remind them of all that Allah had done for them How could he make another god for them when their Allah was the only true god Prophet Musa alayhis salam was summoned by Allah to Mount Sinai and he put his brother Harunalayhis salam in charge while he was gone When he arrived at the appointed site he asked to see Allah Allah said He could not show Himself directly to Prophet Musa alayhis salam but Prophet Musa alayhis salam should look towards the mountain and if the mountain remained in one piece then Musa would see Allah When Allah showed His glory on the mountain it became like dust and Prophet Musa alayhis salam fell down in a faint When he had recovered his senses Meanwhile the people of Prophet Musa alayhis salam gathered together all their jewelry and gold which they had carried from Egypt They melted it down and made it into the form of a calf which they wished to worship When Prophet Musa alayhis salam returned from the mountain with his tablets he was angry and grieved to see the golden calf Thinking that Harun alayhis salam had approved the actions of the Israelites an angry Prophet Musa alayhis salam grabbed his brother by the hair and dragged Harun towards him Harun hastily explained that the people had not listened to The ultimate destination of the people of Israel was the land of Canaan Continuously they rebelled against Allah and continuously Allah forgave them When they were thirsty Allah commanded Prophet Musa alayhis salam to strike a rock and from it sprang twelve springs of water one for each of the tribes of Israel When they were hot Allah provided clouds to cover the sun When they were hungry Allah provided manna and salwa Yet they were never grateful They even complained about the sameness of the diet and asked for more variety At last they came to the land of Canaan But because the people of Canaan were very stronglooking the Israelites were afraid to invade their land There were only two men who were willing to join Prophet Musa alayhis salam and Harun alayhis salam in an attempt to drive the Canaanites out They counseled that if the proper gates were attacked they could easily gain entrance And once they were inside they would easily be victorious if only they would put their trust in Allah But the people of Israel would not budge They told Prophet Musa alayhis salam and You can read about the story of Prophet Musa alayhis salam and his people in the wilderness in alQuran 2 5161 5 2329 7 138162 and 20 8098 Zaki Mohammed July 25 2017 at 821 am Prophet Moosa Bani Israel sub 40 years When Prophet Musa alayhis salam and his people fled from the Egyptians their trials were far from over After they had safely crossed the sea they came upon some people who were worshiping idols The children of Israel asked Prophet Musa alayhis salam to make an

Know the symptoms Know the symptoms The first step to surviving a heart attack is to recognize the symptoms of a heart attack . The more of these symptoms you have , the more likely it is you ’ re having a heart attack . 1 And women are more likely than men to have more than one symptom of a heart attack . The most common heart attack symptom in women and men is chest pain . However , women are more likely to have at least one of these other heart attack signs . 2 Many women say that they felt " off " or that something was " just not right " before their heart attack , but they did n ' t realize their symptoms could be related to their heart . 3 Not all heart attacks feel the same . Some are sudden and intense . Others may start slowly with mild pain or discomfort , which can come and go over several hours , or get worse . New symptoms , or a change in the pattern of existing symptoms , are cause for concern . The only way to be sure is for hospital emergency department staff to examine you as soon as possible .

The 10 Biggest Hair Care Mistakes Learn how to stop abusing your tresses and get gorgeous hair By Renee Loux Sep 24 2013 Shutterstockcom If you want shiny gorgeous hairand really who doesntthen you should pay close attention to how you treat your strands How you wash dry and style can seriously affect the health and appearance of your locks Are you making these hair care mistakes 1 Not Brushing Before Washing A damage doublewhammy Hair is weakest when its wet and wet hair is more prone to tangling To prevent showerinduced snarls give your hair a brush before hopping in If you like to comb in the shower apply conditioner untangle strands with your fingers then use a widetoothed comb before rinsing 2 Brushing the Ends Only Youve heard that brushing too much causes breakage but your scalps natural oils are one of the best conditioners out there Massage your scalp with a woodenbristle brush like Widu to stimulate circulation and hair growth and brush from roots to ends to add luster naturally 3 Being a Clean Freak Most heads of hair dont benefit from daily washing Chronic washing strips your scalp of healthy oils leaving your hair lackluster and lifeless By all means shower daily but if you dont use a ton of styling products try just rinsing hair with water or using a light volumizing conditioner every other day 4 Haphazard Conditioning Weve heard to condition only the ends to prevent flat weigheddown tresses but finehaired gals should condition their roots as well since their hair is more susceptible to breakage Over conditioning is another common snafu Use just enough to untangle snags and save serious slathering for a onceaweek deep treatment or hair masque like Zerrans Hair Redemption or DermOrganic Intensive Hair Repair Masque No matter how you condition be sure to rinse until the water runs clear and use a clarifying shampoo from time to time to prevent residue buildup 5 Intense Towel Drying Most styling products direct you to use them on toweldried hair but rubbing hair too much will roughen up the cuticle leading to dull hair frizz and breakage Blot hair with a towel and shake out the strands with your fingers Your hair will take longer to dry but it will be healthier in the long run 6 Skipping Heat Protection We all know that heat is one of the most damaging elements to hair But if you dont want to live without blowdrying curling or flattening always always use a heatprotective aid to shield strands and smooth cuticles I like Josie Maran Argan Oil Hair Serum Before blowdrying let hair air dry until just damp use your fingers to shake out hair to speed the process and opt for the warm setting instead of hot to avoid habitual heat damage 7 Using Hot Irons on Damp Hair Wet hair and hot tools dont mix Curling and flat irons can burn the follicles of damp strands leading to weak and broken tresses Hair should be completely dry before heat styling period Even when youre in a rush 8 Using Hairspray Before Styling Ever hear a sizzle when curling or straightening hair that has hairspray in it Alcohols in hairspray burn on contact with heat Always use hairspray AFTER curling or ironing 9 Teasing with Abandon For the occasional vavavoom backcombing hair toward the root to amp up volume is a celebrated trick But teasing regularly will damage hair cuticles and lead to breakage To get the dimension without the damage try Giovanni Root 66 Directional Root Lifting Spray and blow dry for natural nonsticky volume 10 Thinking You Can Mend Split Ends Sorry ladies Once hair has split at the ends theres no product that can mend it The only solution for split ends is to prevent them in the first place eg avoiding overwashing rigorous towel drying and abusing heat toolsor to get a trim For a temporary way to minimize visibly broken bottoms try using a product with beeswax or a serum with argan oil on the ends to smooth splits Renee Loux Reprinted from The Balanced Plate by Renée Loux 2006

Lo Reveals Why She ' s Not Planning Her Wedding 5 How To Make Vegan Peanut Butter Cups 15 Foods You Can Actually Eat On The Ketogenic Diet Since carbs are pretty much off - limits . By Christine Yu Jan 23 , 2018 Getty Images Let ’ s face it : The keto diet ( a.k.a. ketogenic diet ) is having a moment . From celebrities to athletes , this high - fat , low - carb diet has the wellness world abuzz for its ability to help people lose weight and shape up . The premise ? Cut back on carbs so that your body enters ketosis — meaning it burns fat instead of glucose for energy , says registered dietitian Isabel Smith . “ When the body is deprived of carbs , it breaks down fat . Ketones are created in the liver and used for energy instead of glucose , ” she says . Hence the name " ketogenic " diet . In order to get your body into ketosis , 70 to 80 percent of your calories should come from fat , 15 to 20 percent from protein , and 5 percent from carbs . That means you ' ll be eating approximately 25 to 35 grams of net carbs ( about the equivalent of one apple , says Smith ) per day . However , Smith notes that these specific ratios vary for each individual , so be sure to talk to your doctor or registered dietitian first , especially if you have a serious medical condition . So What Should You Eat ? And no , the keto diet does n ’ t mean that you get to eat fried cheese for breakfast , lunch , and dinner . The focus is on healthy fats . “ All food is technically allowed but it has to fall within the percent guidelines of the diet , ” says Smith . “ There are definitely healthier and less healthy ways to do it , ” so skip the processed sugars and fried food . Also , be aware that you might feel little crummy as first as your body gets used to fewer carbs . If you ’ re thinking of trying the keto diet , here ’ s an essential keto foods list for your reference . Salmon Getty Images Not only is salmon a good source of lean protein , it ’ s packed with omega - 3 fatty acids — great for the keto diet . Plus , a three - ounce serving has zero carbs , according to the USDA P.S. all fish is okay on the keto diet . Other good fish choices include fatty fish like mackerel ( also a vitamin B12 powerhouse ) and sardines . Related : The 20 Best Low - Carb , High - Protein Foods To Add To Your Diet Grass - fed Beef While all meat has zero carbs , opt for grass - fed beef and other fatty cuts of meat if you ’ re following the keto diet . Not only is grass - fed beef a good source of protein , it also provides healthy omega - 3 fats ( 35 milligrams in a three - ounce serving compared to 18 milligrams in beef from grain - fed cows ) and is better for the environment , too . Eggs While eggs have gotten a bad rap in the past ( for the record : you should n ' t fear the yolks ) , they ’ re a great source of protein , not to mention B vitamins , vitamin D , choline , and zinc . Plus , they only have about 0.36 grams of carbs , according to the USDA This easy trick will show you if your eggs are still good in seconds : Chicken With zero carbs , chicken is keto - approved . Opt for dark meat for more fat and iron . For example , one roasted chicken thigh with the skin on has 10 grams of fat , according to the Related : 14 Vegetarian Foods That Have More Iron Than Meat Avocados YES . The keto diet means plenty of avocados . One - third of this fruit has approximately seven grams of fat ( primarily healthy monounsaturated fats ) , 3.9 grams of carbs and 3.1 grams of fiber , per the . Plus , you ’ ll get a good does of folate and vitamin B5 . Coconut Oil Coconut oil is a keto diet staple .

Opt for nuts packed with healthy fats like Brazil nuts , pecans , and walnuts . One serving contains between one to two carbs plus fiber to keep your blood sugar level . Whole - Milk Yogurt Yogurt is a great versatile ingredient to include in your diet . Although yogurt has a rep for being naturally higher in sugar ( and therefore in carbs ) , you do n ’ t have to exclude it from your high - fat , low - carb diet . An eight - ounce serving of whole milk yogurt has 10.5 grams of carbohydrates , according to the , while also packing in 7.8 grams of protein .

may not all be present when you swallow the pill Thats because probiotics are living organisms they can die when its too hot if the label says to refrigerate do it and if they swelter too long in

1 Vanessa Hudgens Does Keto And Intermittent Fasting 2 Taco Bell Just Announced Their New Vegetarian Menu 3 Miranda Lambert Savagely Shaded Blake Shelton 4 What Jupiter Going Into Retrograde Means For You 5 How To Do A Sumo Deadlift The Right Way 6 Signs Your Excessive Burping Might Not Be Totally Normal Screw being ' ladylike ' — this is definitely cause for concern . By Charlotte Hilton Andersen Jun 18 , 2018 Getty Images Sorry in advance for this truth - bomb , but : Burps are basically just farts that come out of your mouth . Okay , they ' re cuter and do n ' t normally smell like butt - farts do ( bless up ) , but at the end of the day it ' s all just air getting released from your stomach — and that ' s generally a good thing . It keeps you comfortable and signifies that your digestive system is doing its job . But if you ' ve got excessive burping , or if your burps come with other weird symptoms , it may be a sign something ' s off with your bod . Tell me : How much burping is considered ' excessive ' ? " If you ' re burping to the point where it ' s bothersome and that ' s happening three or more days a week , that ' s when you should talk to a doctor , " says Rabia De Latour , M.D. , a gastroenterologist and advanced endoscopist at NYU School of Medicine . The first thing your doc will do is ask you about any daily habits you have that might be contributing to the problem . " Aerophasia , " or swallowing air , is by the far the most common cause of mega - burping , De Latour says . It ' s so common , in fact , that you may not even realize you ' re doing it ( like while drinking soda or chewing gum ) . All that swallowed air gets trapped in your esophagus and stomach and it has to get out somehow . Burps are just memories of meals gone by . — Mrs . The Easter Bunny ( @ thepaulahunt ) June 13 , 2018 Aerophasia does n ' t mean you ' re sick ; it ' s a condition that you can fix by changing your behaviors ( like cutting back on the soda or chewing with your mouth closed ) . " Burping by itself is almost never a sign of illness , " says Julia Kavanagh , M.D. , an internal medicine physician with UCHealth . But there are times when recurrent burping can signify a more serious , underlying problem — especially when it ' s happening in conjunction with other symptoms , says Kavanagh . These excessive burping symptoms should raise a red flag : 1 . You start vomiting pretty suddenly . If your burps come on quickly out of nowhere , and are accompanied with nausea and lots of vomiting , this could signal a potentially life - threatening condition , says De Latour . " If you ca n ' t keep anything down and your stomach is distended and painful it can mean you have a blockage or bowel obstruction , " she explains . In that case , you need to go to the emergency room immediately , she adds . It could also be a sign of the stomach flu , an infection , or even cancer , says De Latour . 2 . You feel really , super bloated . A puffy stomach can happen from swallowing too much air , but if you ' re extremely bloated and it ' s painful , it can be another symptom of an obstruction . If normal methods do n ' t relieve it or if you start vomiting , get it checked out immediately , says De Latour . Bloating is n ' t always serious though — it can also happen with irritable bowel syndrome and lactose intolerance , two other conditions known to give people the burps , she adds . 3 . You feel a really sharp pain in your ribs . Hiatal hernias — a condition where your stomach bulges into your esophagus — can cause recurrent burping , says Kavanagh . On its own , a hiatal hernia is n ' t an emergency , but it can be very uncomfortable . There ' s also risk the hernia will become " strangulated " — when the hernia cuts off blood supply to the rest of the abdomen , according to Harvard Health Publishing . A strangulated hiatal hernia requires emergency surgery , and can be fatal if left untreated . 4 . Your throat is on fire . If you burp a lot after a meal , your burps taste like stomach acid ( a.k.a. barf - flavored ) , and you feel a burning sensation in your chest , you may have gastroesophageal reflux , says Kavanagh . I am burping hot lava . I ’ m so done man — christine teigen ( @ chrissyteigen ) May 10 , 2018 " Burping associated with symptoms of reflux should be attended to , " she explains . " It ’ s not good to have frequent acid reflux , it can be hard on your esophagus . " 5 . You ' re losing weight ( without trying to ) . Losing weight rapidly , along with burping , is another sign of a bowel blockage , says Latour . Losing weight slowly , however , and when you ' re not necessarily trying to , can mean you ' re not digesting your food properly and your doc will want to check you for conditions like IBS , food allergies , or Crohn ' s disease , Kavanagh says . Rarely , burping combined with weight loss can be a sign of stomach cancer , she adds . 6 . Your internal plumbing is n ' t working like it should . When burping occurs with other gastrointestinal issues , including diarrhea , constipation , and farting , it can indicate an underlying condition like IBS , lactose intolerance , or food sensitivities , says De Latour . Girl in my class talking about her IBS & how if she does n ' t burp she ' ll puke and I ' m just like SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS 🙌 😂 — lil king trashmouth ( @ sincerelysnw ) September 29 , 2015 Seriously on the struggle bus ?

7 Plan B Side Effects You Should Know About Nauseous Totally normal By Ashley Mateo Mar 26 2018 Getty Images So the condom broke and youre not on the Pill Your move Run out to CVS and pick up some Plan B TG its overthecounter now right But if youve never taken emergency contraception before you might be wondering Does this stuff have any side effects Plan B contains a type of progesterone the same steroid hormone thats in oral contraceptives but at a higher dose says Iffath Hoskins MD clinical associate professor in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at NYU Langone Health It works by one or all of the following ways delaying ovulation preventing fertilization andor preventing egg implantation Reminder Plan B is not the abortion pill It prevents pregnancy from occurring in the first place it does not terminate an existing pregnancy Though Plan B is generally considered very safe especially compared to an unplanned pregnancy that high dose of progesterone may cause a few potential side effects Heres are the Plan B side effects you should know about 1 Changes In Your Period Getty Images Taking Plan B can cause your period to be lighter or heavier or arrive earlier or come late These side effects are due to the highdose progesterone acting on the lining of the uterus at variable points in time during the menstrual cycle says Hoskins How it affects your cycle depends on where exactly you are in your cycle when you take it And while it may cause changes these are always temporary especially when the pill is used correctly ie very rarelyoccasionally and not regularly and repeatedly she says Your next period should be normal and come at the expected time or within a week of the expected time Advertisement Continue Reading Below 2 NauseaVomiting Getty Images One unpleasant side effect of the morningafter pill is that queasy upsetstomach feeling Again this is due to the pill having a high dose of progesterone says Hoskins That extra influx of hormones can throw your body out of whack for a bit until it gets used to the higher level In general its mild to moderate but like most everything else in medicine there may be a few instances of severe unremitting nausea and vomiting In those cases you should seek medical attention she says Also if you throw up within two hours of taking Plan B the medication may not have been fully absorbed into you system You should call your doctor to see if you need to repeat the dose Advertisement Continue Reading Below 3 Dizziness Getty Images If youre feeling lightheaded or dizzy after taking Plan B dont immediately freak out The usual underlying cause here is that progesterone causes relaxation of the muscle cells in the blood vessels therefore the blood tends to pool in the blood vessels of the lower extremities resulting in less blood flowing to the head says Hoskins That can cause dizziness and lightheadedness Again this should be temporary so if its persistent call your doc Advertisement Continue Reading Below 4 Lower Abdominal Cramping Getty Images Ah we can never get away from cramps can we Progesterone affects uterine musculature so mild to moderate cramps can occur says Hoskins The usual overthecounter meds that you might take for menstrual cramps can help alleviate these But anytime the pain is severewhatever level of pain that causes you to double overandor is associated with moderate to severe bleeding you should seek medical care she adds Advertisement Continue Reading Below 5 Breast Tenderness Getty Images Breast tenderness is also linked to Plan B This is actually just a known side effect of progesterone says Hoskins In a normal menstrual cycle the second half has more progesterone in the blood and breast tenderness and headaches are known to occur during this time Considering the fact that Plan B comes with an extra dose of progesterone it shouldnt come as too much of a surprise if your chest feels sore or achy after taking the morningafter pill Advertisement Continue Reading Below 6 Headaches Getty Images In the same way you may experience headaches during the second half of your menstrual cycle this side effect could occur after taking Plan B Again progesterone causes this symptom Its usually not severe and goes away over a few days says Hoskins But if the headache is severe lasts several days andor is accompanied by visual changes you should seek medical care Advertisement Continue Reading Below 7 Tiredness Getty Images Who isnt tired at some point during their menstrual cycle Hormones are to blame for that too which is why you

Born on December 25 , 1821 in Oxford , Massachusetts , Barton was the youngest of Stephen and Sarah Barton ’ s five children . Her father was a prosperous farmer . As a teenager , Barton helped care for her seriously ill brother David her first experience as a nurse Barton ’ s family directed their painfully shy daughter to become a teacher upon the recommendation of renowned phrenologist L.N. Fowler , who examined her as a girl . She began teaching at age 18 , founded a school for workers ’ children at her brother ’ s mill when she was 24 , and after moving to Bordentown , New Jersey , established the first free school there in 1852 . She resigned when she discovered that the school had hired a man at twice her salary , saying she would never work for less than a man . In 1854 she was hired as a recording clerk at the US Patent Office in Washington , DC , the first woman appointed to such a post . She was paid $ 1,400 annually , the same as her male colleagues . However , the following year , Secretary of the Interior Robert McClelland , who opposed women working in government , reduced her to copyist with a lower salary . In 1857 , the Buchanan Administration eliminated her position entirely , but in 1860 , she returned as copyist after the election of President Abraham Lincoln . When the Civil War began in 1861 , Barton quit her job and made it her mission to bring supplies to Union soldiers in need among them , men of the 6 th Massachusetts Infantry . This started a life - long career of aiding people in times of conflict and disaster . In 1862 , she received official permission to transport supplies to battlefields and was at every major battle in Maryland , Virginia , and South Carolina , where she also tended to the wounded and became known as the “ angel of the battlefield . ” She was officially named head nurse for one of General Benjamin Butler ’ s units in 1864 , even though she had no formal medical training . She joined Frances Gage in helping to In 1869 , Barton traveled through Europe to regain her health . While in Switzerland , she learned about the International Red Cross , established in Geneva in 1864 . Returning to the US , Barton built support for the creation of an American society of the Red Cross by writing pamphlets , lecturing , and meeting with President Rutherford B . Hayes . On May 21 , 1881 , the American Association of the Red Cross was formed ; Barton was elected president in June . In 1882 , the US joined the International Red Cross .

I s it possible that natural antidepressants could help women more than prescription drugs ? Only 55 % of prescription antidepressants are actually given for depression , so natural alternatives are worth considering in many cases . Antidepressant usage has skyrocketed — up 65 % over the last 15 years . Women are twice as likely as men to be on antidepressants even without reporting being depressed . Doctors give women antidepressants for lots of off - label , non - depression reasons : pain , insomnia , menopause symptoms , migraines , fibromyalgia and more . On top of that , antidepressants have so many side effects that , for many women , the treatment may end up being worse than the problem they ’ re taking it for . Depression is a serious and debilitating disorder that can threaten your health by interfering with basic functions like sleeping and eating . But what works for one woman with depression , may not be the solution for another . Natural antidepressants may be effective alternatives for many women while prescription medications can lead to good outcomes for others . Understanding the available options can help you decide what ’ s right for you . Can prescription antidepressants fix what ’ s broken ? Advertisements for antidepressants are sprinkled throughout women ’ s magazines and TV shows showing these drugs leading to happy endings in 60 seconds or less . From Prozac , Paxil , and Zoloft to Wellbutrin , Celexa and Lexapro , these prescription drugs are seen as normal medicines that allow women to get back to their families so they can lead productive lives . We all want that , right ? So why not fill an antidepressant prescription if your doctor offers it ? Antidepressants may help some women , especially those with major depression . But they ’ re often not effective , and even worse , may lead to a lot of unpleasant side effects . Antidepressants are not the only way to navigate difficult periods in life , and there are natural options for improving mood and outlook . When you are n ’ t feeling like yourself and are unsure of which path is right for you , drugs will still be there if you end up deciding to take them . On the depression spectrum , how depressed are you ? The term depression includes a range of negative emotions from “ situational ” and “ mild ” depression to clinical depression , which is a diagnosable disorder . However , the symptoms for all of these can be similar or even the same — at least for a time . With mild depression , symptoms can come and go but they eventually do lift . With major or clinical depression , symptoms are severe , spiraling down into a mental health crisis . Symptoms of depression include : overwhelming feelings of grief , anxiety , guilt or despair a sense of numbness or hollowness a loss of interest or pleasure in activities that used to be enjoyed , including sex decreased energy and extreme fatigue difficulty concentrating or making decisions disrupted sleep patterns overeating and weight gain or loss of appetite and weight loss Even though there is a wide range when it comes to depression severity , if you ’ ve had depressive symptoms consistently for over a month , we urge you to contact a medical professional — a psychiatrist , psychologist , or social worker . Suicidal thoughts or attempts and focusing on death are all serious warning signs that should be addressed immediately . And they ’ re nothing to be ashamed about . Depression drugs : overprescribed , often ineffective and loaded with side effects Emotional concerns , including depression , anxiety or mood changes deserve more than the seven minutes most conventional doctors are given to spend with each patient . This rush to diagnose and treat may lead to a fast prescription for an antidepressant . If you are advised to take an antidepressant drug , it ’ s a good idea to take some time with this decision . Antidepressant side effects can be severe and include restlessness , anxiety , sexual dysfunction , extreme appetite changes , weight changes , panic attacks , drug interactions , sweating and more . In terms of effectiveness there ’ s ongoing debate about whether antidepressants can help people with mild to moderate depression . One meta - analysis revealed minimal or nonexistent benefits when antidepressants are compared to placebo for mildly to moderately depressed people . People with severe depression generally show more substantial benefits . But antidepressants may also have longer - lasting side effects . They can alter the biochemistry of the brain , and cause real problems when you try to stop taking them . Sometimes while “ tapering down ” their antidepressants , people have disruptions in sleep and digestion , and develop neurological symptoms like tics , tingling , and scary “ zapping ” sensations in their brains . A serious aftereffect known as serotonin syndrome can arise when there is excess serotonin - related activity in the nervous system . Though rare , this issue has grown more common and is often misdiagnosed . What ' s causing your depression ? Many forms of depression are natural , normal , and temporary . Some researchers even believe they can help you work through a problem like a fever fights off infection . Many events — even ones that seem positive — can lead to feeling depressed : death of a loved one , a health crisis , financial problems , divorce and break - ups , employment challenges , moving , and even weddings and births . Women with postpartum depression seasonal affective disorder , anxiety , and situational depression can be reluctant to seek help because they feel embarrassed that they ca n ’ t “ control ” their emotions . But antidepressants are not always the answer . Often , depression is the result of a combination of factors . If you can uncover those root causes , you may start to feel better without having to take an antidepressant . Past experiences in particular can influence your biochemistry , causing you to be more susceptible to depression . Even though it ’ s nothing you can change , what happened in your early childhood — or even in utero — may create a heavier burden for you later in life . Research has shown that thoughts can have a long - lasting physical effect in the body , and vice versa . Mild or moderate depression can possibly become an opportunity to generate needed change , though that is easier said than done . There can also be real physiological factors contributing to your depression . Maybe your diet or sleep patterns are off . You could be reacting to toxicity in your environment — certain forms of mold can cause some people to be depressed . Being able to step back and take a close look at your health can begin to decode the causes of your depression . Serotonin and other components of brain chemistry The neurotransmitter serotonin plays a role in depression can but it can be affected by different things in different people . Women with intense carb cravings often feel better after eating them . That ’ s because the precursor to serotonin , tryptophan , needs the insulin produced when we eat carbs to move it into the brain to be converted to serotonin . Some women ’ s bodies release more or less beta - endorphin , another feel - good neurotransmitter , after they eat sweets or refined carbohydrates . But when women come down from a sugar high , they feel even lower , with more intense cravings . They also feel worse off because of the extra weight and guilt that can go along with this cyclical pattern . Brain chemistry is also affected powerfully by stress which can increase cortisol production . Over time , the stress scenario can lead to depression . Hormone expert Bethany Hays , MD , explains the pathway like this : High adrenaline ⇒ Anxiety ⇒ High Cortisol ⇒ Anxious Depression ⇒ Depression Production of the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol through the hypothalamic - pituitary - adrenal ( HPA ) axis wins out over other hormonal pathways , which upsets balance everywhere else . Restoring balance begins with figuring out how to reduce stress and anxiety in your life . Hormones , vitamin D levels , diet and exercise affect emotional health Women are especially vulnerable when hormones are in major flux — the days before menstrual periods , during pregnancy and right after , and in perimenopause . Some women respond well to bioidentical progesterone or phytotherapy Research shows that vitamin D supplementation can help patients with seasonal affective disorder , suggesting a connection between vitamin D and normal neurotransmitter function . Sunlight turns melatonin production off , while triggering the production of vitamin D . But melatonin influences sleep , cravings and moods . Nutrition has more of an effect on mood and brain function than you might realize . Everyday nutrients like B - complex vitamins , vitamins C and D3 and zinc are good fuel for your brain . Omega - 3s and the amino acids l - theanine ( found in many types of tea ) and cysteine ( found in egg yolks , onions , red peppers and broccoli ) support healthy brain function too . Our brain chemistry is affected by sleep , digestion and exercise . The way you think and feel depends on many variables unique to each woman . You may need to experiment with changes to your daily routine to find the right combination for you . Even tiny things like taking a walk or eating a healthy salad can seem difficult when you ’ re depressed . But if you can nudge yourself to make these steps , you might feel a little better . And feeling a little better can change your whole perspective and help you make other healthy adjustments . Natural antidepressant therapies for depression A combination approach to lifting depression generally offers better symptom resolution and long - term results than any one single thing . An integrative or alternative health care practitioner can help put together a plan to meet your individual needs . It might include psychiatry , prescription drugs , and natural holistic approaches like these : Talk therapy or counseling Body work methods , such as craniosacral therapy ( CST ) , osteopathic manipulative therapy ( OMT ) , therapeutic massage Acupuncture Phytotherapy , such as St . John ’ s wort , passionflower or valerian Targeted amino acid support , such as SAM - e or GABA Nutritional supplements like vitamins , minerals and omega - 3 fatty acids Full - spectrum light therapy At - home natural approaches to help relieve depressed feelings From sunlight to healthy snacking , you can sometimes coax your brain chemistry to be more balanced so your moods are steadier . If you feel up to it , try some of these options : Eat a low glycemic - load , Mediterranean - style diet with adequate protein and lots of plant foods . Add a daily supplement regimen , including vitamins , minerals , omega - 3s and probiotics . Get your vitamin D level tested and supplement accordingly . Go to bed by 10 : 00 pm to encourage getting enough sleep . Exercise outdoors — yes , regular walking counts . Try yoga or meditation . Consider talking to your practitioner about alternative therapies like those described in the section above . And certainly consider talking to your practitioner about natural and alternative therapies . Having a trusted professional partner to guide you through the process of feeling better can make a difference . Give yourself an emotional lift — naturally Of course , your life circumstances can affect your outlook on life . And sometimes we simply do n ’ t take very good care of ourselves and inadvertently make things worse . If you can be kind to yourself and have the luxury of time to explore what feels good and right for you , you might be able to nudge yourself toward feeling better and healthier . It may be hard to believe now , but much of the time , feeling depressed is most likely a temporary situation . Time can be a great healer . But with help , support and attention to your daily health , you can feel well again in body , mind , and spirit .

https://www.womentowomen.com/fatigue-insomnia/why-am-i-so-tired-all-the-time/
F eeling tired all the time seems to be a given these days . In fact , studies show that nearly 40 % of the US workforce struggles with fatigue – affecting productivity at work , time with family , the ability to practice self - care , and much more . From what women tell us , we think the real figure is actually much higher , making fatigue a modern day epidemic . And it ’ s not just our crazy schedules that are draining us . Fast food , over - use of electronics , sleep deprivation , yo - yo dieting and other physical and psychological stressors also burden our bodies , making us feel completely exhausted . These aspects of modern living can , and do , lead to physiologic changes that set us up for a state known as adrenal imbalance . Your adrenal glands perform many important jobs — they manage your stress response , help balance blood sugar , support your sleep - wake cycle and a whole lot more . With adrenal imbalance , your fatigue is likely to get worse — unless you do something about it . The root source of fatigue : adrenal imbalance The adrenal glands and the stress hormone cortisol are intimately connected to circadian rhythm — the natural clock our bodies follow that sets the patterns for being asleep and being awake . Cortisol naturally rises in the morning , reaching a peak about 8 : 00am — 9 : 00am and then gradually declines throughout the day to prepare your body for sleep . Yet adrenal fatigue can turn this rhythm on its head , making it impossible for you to get out of bed in the morning and keeping you wide awake when it ’ s time to sleep at night . The fatigue cycle is intensified by consumption of caffeine and sugar , which quickly brings energy levels up but then lets them plunge quickly . Caffeine causes your adrenals to pump out more cortisol and adrenaline , keeping you sharp and awake for a while . But this takes your body out of its natural rhythm and further depletes your adrenal reserves . Sugar raises your blood sugar and insulin , setting you up for an energy crash and subsequent sugar cravings . Keep in mind there may be other causes contributing to your fatigue , including chronic inflammation , food allergies and chemical sensitivities , and infectious diseases such as Lyme disease , among other factors . And fatigue can also result from the combination of several of these factors . If you are n ’ t sure what ’ s behind your fatigue , it ’ s a good idea to talk over your symptoms with your doctor . The effects of fatigue on your health Unfortunately , women often ignore their increasing fatigue until it leads to other disruptive symptoms . By that time , the side effects of fatigue may become nearly constant . They include : feeling drained mentally and physically inability to bounce back after being sick headaches joint pain depression poor short - term memory , confusion , irritability food cravings , particularly for sweets / carbs weight gain a “ second wind ” after 6 : 00pm that interferes with your ability to sleep The long - term effects of adrenal - related fatigue can include disruptions in sex - hormone balance ( making PMS and menopause symptoms even worse ) and thyroid - hormone balance ( often leading to hypothyroidism or low thyroid ) . Constant fatigue can also accelerate aging , disrupt blood sugar regulation , contribute to chronic disease and hinder your ability to combat illnesses . You can get your energy back ! For many conventional doctors the symptom of “ fatigue ” is too vague to treat . In fact , many of us are told fatigue is just a normal part of aging , so we rely on sugar and caffeine to keep going . But these “ crutches ” can only work for so long because they worsen adrenal imbalance — and exhaustion . The key to solving ongoing fatigue is to rebalance your adrenal glands . We can help you do this naturally with minimal impact on your body . Whether your fatigue is mild , moderate or severe , our Adrenal Health Programs can be customized to your symptoms . We also offer Nurse - Educator consultations and free Wellness Coaching when you need it . Having more energy and effectively supporting your adrenal glands takes a whole - body approach and we ’ ve helped thousands of women feel better . We can help you too .

Iodine and your thyroid I odine is one of the most important nutrients you need to keep your thyroid working well — and it has a major effect on your entire body . That ’ s why when you have an iodine deficiency , you ’ ll feel sluggish overall . Plus you ’ ll experience a wide range of symptoms throughout your body that are related to a low thyroid function , such as fatigue , sensitivity to cold and unexplained weight gain . Most of us may only think of iodine as an added ingredient in table salt , and not as a key mineral we need for our health . While iodine deficiency is certainly not common , it does exist , especially for certain women . For example , women of childbearing age ( 20 - 39 ) in the US had the lowest urine iodine levels of any other age group , according to a 2012 CDC report . It ’ s important to consider what effect your iodine level could be having on your thyroid , as well as Are you sure that you ’ re getting the right amount of iodine your thyroid needs to do its job and for you to feel your best ? Here ’ s a closer look at why iodine is important for your thyroid , how to know if you ’ re getting enough ( or too much ) iodine and what foods are good sources of iodine . Why is iodine important for your thyroid ? Iodine is a critical element needed to make the essential thyroid hormones that circulate in your body . These hormones – known as T4 ( thyroxine ) and the more active T3 ( triiodothyronine ) – ensure healthy signaling between your thyroid , brain and body to regulate your energy , weight , cell metabolism and much more . Unfortunately , the feedback loops between the thyroid and the brain can easily be disrupted when you are n ’ t getting enough of specific nutrients like iodine , selenium , tyrosine and B vitamins . Even though iodine is so important to so many of your body ’ s functions , your body does n ’ t make it . You need to make sure you ’ re getting adequate amounts of iodine from your daily diet , along with supplements when needed , so that your thyroid has the most basic building - blocks to make its key hormones . Good sources of iodine in your diet Your thyroid only needs tiny amounts of iodine on a daily basis , so looking at your food choices is a good place to start for boosting your iodine intake . Some of the top food options to add to your everyday diet include : Top food choices for iodine include : Sea vegetables ( such as kelp , dulse , hijiki , nori , arame , wakame and kombu ) Seafood ( such as clams , shrimp , haddock , oysters , salmon and sardines ) Iodized sea salt Secondary food sources for iodine include : Eggs Asparagus Lima beans Mushrooms Spinach Sesame seeds Summer squash Swiss chard Garlic Dairy products Onions Radishes Watercress When it comes to the amount of iodine that you ’ re getting from food , it ’ s important to remember that even iodized salt is not as high in iodine as you may think . Plus , with many women now watching their salt intake , you may not be getting as much iodine in your daily diet as you did in the past . In addition to iodine , selenium is another important mineral you need for good thyroid health . Selenium helps the body to recycle iodine . If you have low levels of selenium along with low levels of iodine , it is more likely to lead to a thyroid imbalance . You can read more about the needed nutrients for your thyroid and the top foods that contain them in our article What to eat to support your thyroid reviewed by Dr . Mary James , ND . How much iodine do you need ? In the US , the recommended daily allowance ( RDA ) for iodine for adults is 150 mcg / day and 290 mcg / day for lactating women . More and more researchers are saying that increasing the RDA would greatly benefit breast , thyroid and nervous system health in women and infants . The current RDA is well below the US Food and Nutrition Board ’ s “ upper limit of safety ” for iodine ( UL = 1100 mcg ) , which is even lower in Europe ( UL = 600 mcg ) , where iodine deficiency is more common . In Japan , however , where diets include lots of iodine , consumption is about 25 times more than the median intake here . You can get too much iodine You can also experience thyroid health issues from too much iodine . Iodine - induced hyperthyroidism ( overproduction of thyroid hormones ) or iodine - induced hypothyroidism can both occur when people who are already iodine - deficient are given too much iodine , too quickly . Take care when starting with iodine supplements , slowly bringing levels up rather than overloading right up front . You may want to consult with your healthcare practitioner . Should you get your iodine levels tested ? If you think you could be suffering from low thyroid , subclinical hypothyroidism or even hypothyroidism ( inadequate production of thyroid hormones ) it makes sense to have your iodine levels tested . This is especially important if you do n ’ t eat many iodine - containing foods or use iodized sea salt . As we learn more about how iodine functions in the body , we ’ re seeing more and more connections between diet , environment and the rise of thyroid health problems in women . Here ’ s a simple test for iodine deficiency that you can safely do at home : Dip a clean ball of cotton in inexpensive red - tinged USP tincture of iodine from any drugstore . Paint a 2 - inch circle of tincture of iodine on soft skin tissue , such as the inner arm or thigh . Wait to see what happens : if the yellow - orange stain takes more than 6 hours to disappear , you are likely to be iodine - replete . If the stain is absorbed quickly ( within 1 - 3 hours ) , your body may need a higher iodine intake . Depending on your results , you may want to talk with your healthcare practitioner for the more detailed 24 - hour iodine / iodide loading test . Reference : Skidmore , B . 2007 You may also want to consider additional testing if you think you have a thyroid issue . Talk with your doctor about getting a full thyroid hormone panel , along with testing for your iodine , selenium and vitamin D levels . If you have low thyroid symptoms , the more you know about thyroid nutrition , the better . Lasting relief for low thyroid symptoms Exclusive video series from Dr .

The Pros And Cons Of Engineered Wood Flooring This entry was posted on March 17 , 2014 by Jonathan Sapir Engineered wood flooring is not only a really popular flooring solution these days ; it ’ s also highly practical and a convincing alternative to solid wood flooring . That said , there are still people who would n ’ t consider anything but solid wood , because they do n ’ t feel they ’ re getting real wood unless it ’ s solid . In order to help you decide if engineered wood flooring might work for your project , we ’ ve decided to put together the many pros of this solution and to outline what is Here they are : Resistance to moisture and temperature fluctuations One of the most significant advantages of engineered wood flooring over solid wood flooring is that it will withstand even severe temperature and moisture fluctuations . What this means is that , unlike solid wood flooring , you can install engineered wood flooring in kitchens that suffer more than their fair share of steam and heat . The reason that engineered wood flooring is suitable in these environments is because it does n ’ t expand and contract to the same extent as solid wood flooring and as a result wo n ’ t cup or warp due to moisture and temperature changes . The huge choice available The selection of engineered wood flooring on the market today is quite simply astounding . There ’ s everything from antique looks down to the most modern ( almost ) white or black floor you can imagine . What ’ s more , within the range of prices of engineered flooring , there truly is something for every budget . Add to the choice of colour and price range , there ’ s also a really broad style choice . With an engineered flooring board , you can save time by opting for a 2 - strip , a 3 - strip or even a parquet look , all of which are really authentic looking and can be laid in a flash . Superb good looks There ’ s no getting away from the fact that engineered wood flooring looks just like real wood flooring . Although only a few years ago , it was reasonably easy to spot the difference between engineered wood flooring and solid wood flooring , this is no longer the case . In fact , in most cases , when you opt for a quality engineered wood floor , the vast majority of people would seriously struggle to say whether or not it ’ s solid wood . With all the other advantages associated with this type of flooring , this authentic look truly is the icing on the cake . Suitable for installation over under floor heating Solid wood flooring is n ’ t normally recommended for installation over under floor heating because of the constant expansion and contraction that ’ s caused when the heating comes on and goes off . Engineered wood flooring on the other hand is a perfect partner for under floor heating . Although there are restrictions on the thickness of board , which is normally recommended ( generally speaking no more than 14mm ) , there ’ s plenty of choice when it comes to finding the right product . Lifespan As you ’ re no doubt aware , in many of the stately homes and castles throughout Europe , there are examples of solid wood floors that have been in place for centuries . However , the same ca n ’ t be said for engineered wood flooring . This is true for two reasons . First , engineered wood flooring simply did n ’ t exist centuries ago and second , there are a finite number of times that you can re - sand and re - finish engineered wood flooring . While there are also a finite number By choosing an engineered wood floor with a thicker top layer or lamella like any of these ones , you will get a good number of sandings and refinishings without needing to worry about causing damage . If you ’ d like to explore further the pros and cons of engineered wood flooring , why not get in touch ? The team at Wood and Beyond will give you an honest and unbiased view about which wood floor option will work best for you .
