I was invited in 2019 to speak in Ottawa to the Annual General Meeting of the ecumenical social justice group Citizens for Public Justice. They asked me to talk about populism. It’s a topic that has gained new urgency following the so-called Freedom Convoy in 2022. Here is the speech:
I am so pleased to be with you this evening. Actually, I have attended probably half a dozen of your Annual General Meetings, including one here in Ottawa in 2006. The speaker that evening was Immigration Minister Monte Solberg. He had barely begun his speech when a group of people stormed the podium to protest against his government’s immigration and refugee policies. The minister had to beat a hasty retreat. I am hoping that no one storms the podium tonight!
On a happier note, I attended your AGM in Toronto last year when you released the book Journeys to Justice. It had been assembled by Joe Gunn, your former executive director and it shows how ecumenical groups were involved in some of our biggest issues in the 1970s and 80s. Christian-based organizations, including yours, took a prophetic stance at important moments in our history. So I am doubly pleased to be here tonight, this time on the other side of the microphone.
Why talk about populism?
When I am asked to speak, I always try, as best I can, to address the concerns of my hosts and my audience. In this case, the folks at CPJ asked me to talk about populism. You might ask why? Well, I think generally there is an apprehension – among many of us — about where we find ourselves today in terms of the public dialogue. There is just a lot of angst out there about what is happening in the world around us. For example, early in May, I attended the Ottawa launch for a book by Michael Adams, founder of the polling firm Environics. Michael’s book is called, Could It Happen Here? Canada in the Age of Trump and Brexit. Michael thinks it won’t happen here – but he also says that under certain circumstances, it could.
A lot of attacks upon our way of doing politics, and even upon democracy itself, seem to arise from this thing called populism. CPJ wants me, in the words used to describe this address, to “reframe populism” – not necessarily to condemn it but to better understand it – especially in the run up to the federal election in October.
But what, exactly, is populism? I am going to provide you with just one brief definition: Populism is a political approach that strives to appeal to ordinary people who feel that their concerns are disregarded by established elite groups. The key terms here are “political approach”, “ordinary people” and “established elite.”
According to populists, there is a group of ordinary and deserving people who are being exploited by an elite group, the Establishment if you will. So populism appeals to ordinary people to do something to do something about – to prevent or to turn back that exploitation by the elite. And there definitely are times when the elite should be challenged — because all too often both historically and today, some people use their privilege and their power to benefit themselves at the expense of others. We can look back to the Old Testament to see what Isiah and the other prophets had to say about that kind of exploitation. Perhaps we could say that in their day the prophets were populists, advocating on behalf of ordinary people.
I said that populism a political approach. It is a way of looking at the world but it is not a specific ideology like liberalism or Marxism. And here’s the thing – populism can attach itself to different ideologies, left, right and in between. It can be channelled toward hate and authoritarianism, but it can also be progressive, inclusive and democratic. We have a good deal of experience with this latter kind of populism in Canada. Let me tell you a story to illustrate.
I grew up in rural Saskatchewan in the 1950s and 60s at a time when agrarian populism was in its late stages. Farmers in Western Canada believed that they were being exploited by banks, railroads, grain buyers and farm machinery companies — and all with the complicity of politicians in the old line parties. I can recall my father criticizing people who he called “big shots” – today populists would call them the elites.
Farmers thought they were getting a raw deal so they protested. But they did more than protest. They organized. They set up their own grain elevator companies, which later became the Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba Wheat Pools. They set up consumer co-ops and credit unions, and even their own co-operative oil refinery. And eventually they also went into politics. In Saskatchewan, agrarian populism led to the election of the CCF and Tommy Douglas in 1944, and he our premier for the next 17 years. And it was this government which in 1962 introduced the first public Medicare plan in North America – one which was to become a model for all of Canada.
I have a very personal observation about Medicare. My parents were small farmers and they were poor. My mother developed Multiple Sclerosis as a young married woman but it took years of doctoring (as my parents called it) before she received a diagnosis. My father later told me that in some years our family’s doctor bills amounted to more money that my parents made on the farm. I was a child then and I recall how frightened I would be when we got threatening letters from collection agencies acting on behalf of the doctors. My parents were slavish followers of any political party. At one time or another they voted for pretty well everything going, including Social Credit. But they were certainly in favour of Medicare, and it made an immense difference in their lives and for that reason in mine.
So that was my experience with agrarian populism. But the world has moved on and now it is often populists on the right who seem to be the dominant voices. I am thinking, for example, of the United We Roll convoy which made its way from Alberta to Ottawa in February of this year.
The convoy’s initial demands were that Ottawa clear the way for construction of oil and gas pipelines. Beyond that they said that the government should scrap the carbon tax, which was about to come into being. But somewhere along the way those economic issues morphed from pipelines into a seemingly unrelated focus on immigrants and refugees. There was some Muslim-bashing and anti-Semitism thrown in — and also conspiracy theories about Canada’s loss of sovereignty to the United Nations, not to mention hateful comments and threats of violence against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. I went to the convoy’s website and looked at the images posted there. I saw people at rallies carrying signs calling the Prime Minister a traitor. I read much of the media coverage and saw that in Sault Ste Marie, one of the protesters told a reporter that he backed using violence to remove Trudeau from office.
When the convoy reached Ottawa, there were two days of demonstrations on Parliament Hill. One of the featured speakers was a woman named Faith Goldy. Her views are so extreme that Facebook has now suspended her account for promoting white supremacy. The question arises: Why was someone known for her extremist views on race invited to address a rally which was supposedly about obtaining greater support for the oil and gas industry?
This leads to a disturbing observation about how anger that seems to originate with economic issues can be deflected into intolerance and even hatred toward marginalized groups of people. That appears to be what happened in the United States in 2016 where there was a lot of angst about the economy. Mr. Trump was able to seize upon that anxiety and portray himself as the authentic voice for ordinary people — and he won the election. However, there is a continuing debate about whether it was economic issues, or Trump’s deliberate appeal to racism, that allowed him to win.
We in Canada should pay attention. We have serious economic issues of our own. For one thing, there is growing inequality here. In 2017, Canada’s 100 highest paid Chief Executive Officers took home 197 times more than the average worker, whose family income has been stagnant for years. In the economic rung below those workers, there is a stubbornly persistent level of poverty in this country, as CPJ knows only too well. This poverty exists in pockets, some of them regional, but also among Indigenous people wherever they live and among recent immigrants and refugees. It would be a tragedy if Canadians could be convinced to shift their economic anxiety into an attack upon innocent and vulnerable people.
Earlier, I mentioned the convoy, which I would describe as a right wing populist movement. But there are other populist voices out there as well – and this is important to acknowledge. I recently attended a town hall meeting in Ottawa promoting a Green New Deal. A youth group called Our Time was a key to organizing the event, which attracted 150 people of all ages.
This was one of dozens of such gatherings being held across the country. The plan is to use the meetings to craft a climate policy, and to build pressure on all political parties to insert it into their election platforms. I think, frankly, that unless our politicians become far more active in dealing with climate change, people — especially young people — will begin to engage in more aggressive tactics. They have a saying that there is no “Planet B.”
So now we are on the verge of a federal election campaign. What should we expect? And what role should be played by your organization, CPJ? For one thing, there will be – there already is – a lot of noise out there on a variety of hot button and wedge issues. But you have carefully chosen to focus on three issues. They are climate justice, poverty elimination, and refugee rights. I hope and expect that you will stick to those three. We, whether as individuals or group such as yours, do not have to take a public position on everything.
On poverty elimination, you have a position that is well-researched and developed. The current federal government recognizes and I believe appreciates your expertise, and they have actually announced a strategy. I am told the minister called your office directly to tip you off prior to making an announcement. So chalk that up as a success. But in this plan the devil, as they say, is in the details, and this is something that no doubt you will be watching closely.
But despite all of your good work I don’t think poverty reduction will be a big issue in the election, unless you can make it one. During the election in 2015, all parties fell over themselves to appeal to the middle class. That does not describe the six million people who you say live poverty in Canada.
But your other two chosen issues will likely be in the cross hairs. Canada made big promises at the Paris climate summit in late 2015. Mr. Trudeau has since introduced a carbon tax in Canada and it applies at the pumps. He promised that the tax would be offset by rebates to consumers – and that has already begun to happen. The object is to shift us away from carbon and move toward alternative technologies.
The Conservative mantra is that a carbon tax will damage the economy and even cause a recession. That would be news to British Columbia, which has had a carbon tax for years and has possibly the hottest economy in the country, with the lowest unemployment rate in April 2019. The provinces of Saskatchewan, New Brunswick and Ontario have taken the federal government to court over the tax, and Mr. Kenney in Alberta will now join in that effort. Federal Conservative leaders Andrew Scheer and the Conservative premiers are all campaigning against the tax it and that line of attack will continue.
You have a position on climate change. You agree that it is real and caused by humans and that the need for action is urgent. You support a carbon tax, but you say that is not enough. You say that we must also use every other tool at our disposal. Those include the government’s ending billions of dollars in subsidies to the fossil fuel sector. You want that money to be used the development of renewable energy, energy efficient buildings and transportation — and in providing for a just transition for energy sector workers.
On this issue, your position is much closer to that of the governing party, the NDP and the Greens than it is to the Conservatives. I don’t know quite how you will treat this in a non-partisan way, but I am sure you have given that a good deal of thought.
Immigration and refugees
Immigration will likely be another hot button issue, with a special focus upon refugees. We have seen this road tested in the Conservative criticisms about asylum seekers crossing the border at remote locations in Quebec and Manitoba. The Conservatives are calling it a crisis and they encourage Canadians to think of asylum seekers as “queue jumpers” and “illegals.” I know that you have written to the Conservatives, asking them to stop describing asylum seekers as illegals even before they have had hearings to determine their status.
To be sure, there are important conversations to be had on refugee issues, just as there are on climate change and the carbon tax. And no one should be chided for raising an issue for debate. The disturbing thing, however, is when issues are posed in such a way that they target certain people as alien, and as a threat to us, even when there is no evidence to back up those claims. This is a deeply cultural issue and sadly one that can quickly lead to intolerance or worse.
But there is some potential good news on this front. I mentioned that I heard pollster Michael Adams talk about his new book. He said that Canadians generally feel more positively toward immigrants and refugees than do people in any other country. He said he believes that xenophobia will not be a successful platform for any political party in the 2019 election. I do hope that he is right.
One other thing we can expect between now and the election – and I do not have time to talk much about it today – is a stream of deliberately false, or at the least, misleading information. This will be placed on social media by what we might call bad actors, some of them foreign groups or even foreign governments. All I can say here is that as individual consumers of news we should decide which media outlets and journalists we trust to deal in facts and to engage in fact checking. We should count on them for our information needs rather than following the first social media site that pops up.
And here CPJ has an important role to play as well. You invest a lot of time and effort to create solid research and information. That is a precious currency. We need that information in a world of misinformation. So please reach out to us.
That’s my take on the election and your chosen issues, but what about your approach more generally? You have your own history and reputation. You have your own way of participating in the public dialogue, which is courteous and non-partisan, and you are respected for that. You can meet and engage with various organizations – not only politicians and public servants — but also a variety of non-governmental and public interest groups. Hearing them and listening to them does not mean always agreeing with them. Some ideas are better than others.
In summary, I suggest that you continue with your research and advocacy. But it’s going to be hard to get the attention of politicians between now and October. So it will be important to put an extra emphasis upon reaching out to your base, particularly in Christian churches. There is a lot of good will among people in those churches — and they in turn can and should engage the political candidates who are asking for their votes.
I know that you have attempted such outreach in a variety of ways – your Chew On This campaign on poverty reduction, and your Give It Up For The Earth campaign on climate change. I know as well there is only so much that a small organization can do. There are limitations, but I believe that CPJ has an important, even a prophetic role to play in this election campaign and beyond. And I for one am very grateful that we have you around.
Have you read this article: Sociologists destroy the myth that uneducated white voters support Trump because of ‘economic anxiety’? Chauncey DeVega, Salon, March 11, 2019.
Opened my eyes a bit more about ‘liberal’ thinking that facts will re-educate people to their views. Actually taken as patronizing by those of the Trump supporters. I have experienced this over several years as a working stiff on construction in Alberta, NT, Nunavut, Sask., Ont.
Thanks for your comment Bruce. I have gone to the Salon article and read it. Pretty scary. Here is the link for anyone else who is interested:
Once again a thought-provoking and important article. You have said so much here that left of centre politicians need to study when planing strategy. It is so easy for right wing politicians to stir fear and anger while presenting facile answers. We need to take into account the fact that so many people are looking for answers in their lives in this troubled world. And, as difficult as that is, we must try to present positive answers to difficult problems. People like those you spoke to must be approached in that process.

I just built my first gaming pc. When I turn it on the motherboard lights up, I hear the optical drive spinning, the fans spin, yet it doesn't actually boot. I found the little motherboard speaker and when I boot up it gives me 3 medium beeps. As far as I can tell this means the ram is not functioning. I am using 2 4gb sticks of G.Skill Ripjaw 1600. I tried them together, as well as individually, in different slots and I always get that beeping. Is it definitely the RAM that is broken or could it be the motherboard RAM slots? How can I tell apart from trying other RAM?

It was a mixed day (or two) for the Giants farm, but Keaton Winn helped lead Sacramento’s pitching staff for one of its best days of the season. Plus, two big hitters had 0-for-2 days but still were getting on base.
AAA: Sacramento 4, Tacoma 1
- Sacramento led wire-to-wire in this game, and the pitching staff led the way. Led by Keaton Winn with his best game of the year, Sacramento held Tacoma scoreless until the 9th inning. They took the lead in the first with a bases-loaded walk to Ford Proctor, and then really put in some space with a 2-run Ricardo Genovés double in the 5th.
- Winn went 4.0 scoreless innings, allowing just a season-low one hit and one walk, striking out four. It’s the third start Winn has had without allowing any runs. With this game, Winn has 45 strikeouts to1 9 walks in 37.1 innings this season.
- Reliever Chris Wright went 1.1 scoreless innings in relief, allowing just one hit and no walks. Wright has been doing better at limiting hits, and at a .264 batting average allowed, it’s the lowest it’s been since April 24th, after which it spiked to .385.
- Luis Matos led the team in hitting, going 3-for-5. Matos now has three 3-hit games over the last ten, although his batting average has dropped from .357 to .340 over that span. He now has three doubles and two triples over 12 games in Triple-A.
- DH Colton Welker went 2-for-5, with two stolen bases. The steals are his first of the season, and actually his first since 2019 (He’s played 72 games from 2021 through 2023). Welker has a batting line of .292/.410/.344 on the season, with 20 walks to 21 strikeouts.
- Will Wilson was 2-for-4 with a double. It’s his eighth double of the season, to go along with six home runs. He has a batting line of .213/.288/.367 after 51 games, with 18 walks to 51 strikeouts.
- Shortstop Tyler Fitzgerald went 2-for-5 with a stolen base. He now has hits in 12 of the last 13 games, going 18-for-52 (.346) with four doubles, a triple, and three home runs over that run. He’s got a batting line of .309/.385/.544 at Triple-A.
- Catcher Ricardo Genovés went 1-for-4 with the 2-run double, his sixth of the season, and got caught stealing on his first steal attempt of the season (and since 2021). He has a batting line of .268/.368/.392 over 32 games this season.
- The Squirrels will soon get a new player, as Jimmy Glowenke has gotten the call up to Richmond. Glowenke earned it after going .313/.413/.542 in 26 games at Eugene, playing all over the infield.
AA: Erie 11, Richmond 1
- Yeah…this game was just a mess. Erie beat up starter Ryan Murphy and reliever Wil Jensen to the tune of ten runs over the first four innings. Meanwhile, Richmond managed just two hits (but also six walks) on the day, though one was a home run, so it wasn’t a shutout.
- Left fielder Carter Williams had the only big hit of the day, hitting his 5th home run with Richmond on a 1-for-3 day. Over 28 games in Richmond, Williams has a .231/.290/.407 line over 28 games, with five home runs and a double, and Williams also had one home run in three games with Eugene.
- The other hit came off the bat of Riley Mahan, who was 1-for-4. Mahan is 5-for-13 with a double over his last three games, raising his batting average from .190 to .209.
- Vaun Brown was actually the only Squirrel to get on base multiple times, going 0-for-2 with two walks to one strikeout. In seven games at Richmond, he now has 12 strikeouts to four walks, with a .308 batting average.
- It was another rough game for Murphy, who gave up six runs, five earned, on six hits and a walk with 3.1 innings, with just two strikeouts. Murphy is giving up hits to the tune of .309, and has a 6.15 ERA with 31 strikeouts to 19 walks in 33.2 innings.
High-A: Vancouver 4, Eugene 2
- This game started off well, with Eugene scoring two runs in the first innings off a double steal with an error, and an Adrian Sugastey RBI single. But the offense stalled from there, as Vancouver knocked in four runs, three on a big home run in the 4th.
- The big day belonged to Ghordy Santos, who reached back to the Mendoza Line by going 3-for-4 with a double and getting to .200. It’s the first 3-hit game of the season for Santos, who is batting .245 in May.
- Making his High-A debut was Carter Howell, playing left field. He got a single in his first High-A at-bat, picked up his first High-A steal in the double steal that led to McCray scoring, and would score his first High-A run on an Adrian Sugastey single. The undrafted free agent hit .337/.398/.500 over 39 games with San Jose to earn his promotion.
- Grant McCray went 0-for-2 with two walks, with a steal, his 21st of the season. With the walks, he now has 27 to 65 strikeouts in 44 games this season, raising his on-base percentage to .343.
- Starting pitcher Matt Mikulski gave up four runs, three earned, in 3.0 innings, allowing three hits, a walk, and two HBP, while striking out three. It’s been a very difficult May for Mikulski, who has a 9.42 over five games this month, with 20 strikeouts to 13 walks in 14.1 innings.
- In relief, Ben Madison had another strong game, allowing just a walk in 3.0 innings, while striking out three. That gives him 40 strikeouts to 16 walks in 24.0 innings, and has allowed just 11 hits on the season, for a .133 average allowed even despite a 4.13 ERA.
Low-A: San Jose 4, Fresno 3 (10 innings, from Monday)
San Jose Notes:
- San Jose fought off a big comeback from Fresno to pick up this win late. Dilan Rosario knocked in all the San Jose’s regulation runs, with an RBI single in the 2nd, and a 2-run single in the 4th. But Fresno came back with three runs in the 6th inning to tie it up. But San Jose would end it in the 10th, with an Onil Perez RBI single.
- Thomas Gavello was at catcher, and went 2-for-4 with a double, the only San Jose extra-base hit. Gavello now has seven doubles to go with a triple and seven home runs on 34 games. He has a batting line of .273/.426/.521, with 16 walks to 45 strikeouts.
- Left fielder Tanner O’Tremba went 2-for-4, playing left field, and got caught stealing. O’Tremba has gone 6-for-15 (.400) over his last four games with two triples, and now has been caught stealing once, but has six steals on seven attempts.
- Dilan Rosario was 2-for-4 with a pair of singles, with three RBI. In 15 games with San Jose, Rosario has a .220/.316/.240 batting line with a double, the double being his only extra-base hit of the season so far.
- Hayden Wynja had his best start and appearance of the season, going 4.0 innings, allowing only a walk with four strikeouts. It was his longest appearances of the season, and the first time he hadn’t allowed any hits in more than an inning of work. Wynja has 37 strikeouts to 11 walks in 26.0 innings.
- Reliever Tyler Vogel went 2.0 innings, giving up just a walk with three strikeouts. Vogel has 28 strikeouts to 15 walks in 20.2 innings, and has a 3.92 ERA, and is holding opposing batters to a .167 average.

Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. in Full Catastrophe Living: Using the Wisdom of Your Body and Mind to Face Stress, Pain, and Illness
Eating meditation is an old and very natural practice to help awaken a clear mind. It is a piece of a greater mindfulness practice that seeks to allow us to be awake and responsive throughout our lives.
When you eat, take care to experience your food. Make eating a special mindful activity. Give your food and your eating of it your full attention. Slow down. Give thanks for the food and those people and processes that brought it to you.
Develop a habit of observing your food for a few moments before you eat and expressing simple gratitude for it. Eating a piece of fruit, we may enjoy its color and shape, it's texture, the way the juice reflects the light. We can be thankful that the earth has nurtured the parent plant, that someone has tended the plant, picked the fruit, and brought it to us. We may be thankful for the bees that pollinated the blossom and the sun that ripened it. We may be thankful for the water that washed it and the air that carries its scent.
As you bring the food to your mouth, feel your body. Notice the movements that carry the food to your mouth, and how you receive it there. Be aware of your presence in time and space.
As we eat, we experience taste. Allow yourself to experience the fullness of taste. Notice the feelings in your mouth and jaw as you take a bite. Notice what your tongue does. Notice how you chew. Feel the texture of your food. Try chewing a little longer than you usually do, since most of us swallow too early.
Some of us eat, just to fill the void. When we gulp our food to attain the feeling of fullness, we are eating to ease the pain of emptiness. Wouldn't it be better to eat with full enjoyment and to nourish the body?
Most of us carry with us a surplus of fat that can sustain us when food is scarce, but we live in a part of the world where food is never scarce. When we eat past the point of fullness, the surplus grows. Wouldn't it be wise to eat just to the point of satisfaction and then stop, even if there is food left on the plate?
Notice your thoughts as you eat. Be aware of your cravings and habits. Instead of responding automatically to your desire for more, listen to your body. What do you need?
Develop the practice of mindful eating and you will enjoy your food more, and will find peace in something you do every day.

1861 FASTER ways to kill babiesLots of bloggers noted the study last month in the New England Journal of Medicine about first trimester tests for Down's Syndrome (Vol. 353, no. 19, November 10, 2005, pp. 2001-2011). I didn't get a chance to read the article until today, after I'd checked out the issue to read an article on the dangers of sleep apnea. Anyway, the early test is so parents (are they called parents if the blob of tissue isn't a baby?) can look at strategies to "help guide the choice." The word choice appears in the very last sentence of the article--up to that point, nothing is said about what will be done with the information from the tests.
This article has the most bone-chilling, sanitized medicaleze I've ever read, beginning with the name of the Consortium that performed the study: FASTER stands for First- and Second-Trimester Evaluation of Risk. In short, you can find out earlier (faster) if your baby has Down's. However, there is a greater margin of error--more "false positives" if you rely just on the first trimester test instead of doing it again in the second trimester and comparing results. It is less stressful, I suppose, to kill off a baby before you feel those little ticklish butterfly kisses in your abdomen, but how do you turn off the brain that knows what you are really doing?
Figure 1 in the study charts the women who participated in this study. A total of "42,367 patients were approached for enrollment." Not pregnant women who might be willing to have an abortion given test results faster, but "patients." Not solicited, but "approached." Not scammed, but "enrolled." Well, 4,178 jumped ship right away--they were either ineligible or they refused. Then another 156 had some other, non-Down's problems, so they were dropped. So, 38,033 got this first trimester screening, with 92 revealing Down's Syndrome, which drops to 87 with the second trimester screening. There's other playing with numbers in the table, and I'm not sure what all went on, but having the two tests "is superior for detecting Down's Syndrome." We're not told if the women chose abortion or life for a less than perfect baby, only that this screening is a powerful tool.
[You could all just save yourselves a lot of grief, sorrow and death of babies (remember all those false positives) if you'd have your babies before age 35. In the study, 29,834 of the women were younger than 35, and they had 28 fetuses (i.e. babies) with Down's Syndrome; 8,199 of the women were 35 or older and they had 64. Put the career track on hold instead of the mommy-track.]
And in the small print: Jacob A. Canick, PhD, and Nicholas J. Wald, FRCP, who participated in the study hold U.S. patents for unconjugated estriol as a marker in prenatal screening for Down's syndrome. Mr. Wald holds patents for the screening test using the first and second trimester markers as a single test, and is a director of a company that makes software used to calculate Down's syndrome risk, and is a director of the company which licenses the screening test. Some of the doctors in the study receive lecture fees from various equipment companies used in the study.

Comedian Josh Pray has uploaded a video warning Machine Gun Kelly not to mess with SLIPKNOT or it’s fans.
The hilarious video, titled “MGK Doesn’t Want Problems With Slipknot or That Genre… Trust Me,” can be seen just below this article.
“I just wanna tell you and your fans — and fans, don’t encourage him to come back for Slipknot. Don’t do it,” Pray says. “I did one video — one heavy metal video — and heavy metal fans made me touch every single group in heavy metal history. You do not, do not, do not, ‘Psychosocial,’ do not, take back what you said Machine. Just stop it, swallow your pride… Do not disrespect Slipknot.”
“If you could take the Earth and weigh it, it still wouldn’t be as heavy as Slipknot. Slipknot don’t have fans, they have a brotherhood,” he continued.
“Eminem let you continue. Eminem could’ve buried you, homie,” Pray said. “And now you wanna mess with this family? You crazy?”
This whole thing started when MGK mouthed off SLIPKNOT during his performance at Riot Fest earlier this month. He then added fuel to the fire by going after SLIPKNOT frontman Corey Taylor on social media the following day, saying that Corey recorded a verse for his 2020 album ‘Tickets to My Downfall’, which MGK didn’t use, and called the singer “bitter” over it.
Taylor fired back at Kelly on Twitter, providing screenshots of an email exchange regarding what actually happened, with Corey choosing not to participate in the project.
MGK was booed during his performance at the Louder Than Life festival this past weekend, which simply shows that you don’t f*ck with metalheads and their bands.

Gallbladder plays an essential role in digesting fats by storing and concentrating excess bile and releasing it at the right time.
Some health conditions such as gallbladder stones may require this organ to be removed from your body, and this may make you wonder if it’s possible to be on keto without a gallbladder. The good news is that it is possible, but it will require some effort from your part to get it right.
IMPORTANT: Please discuss with your doctor first if you’ve had your gallbladder removed and wish to start the ketogenic diet.
What Is a Gallbladder
The gallbladder is a member of the biliary system which is made up of the liver and its huge blood supply, the liver ducts, bile ducts (inside and outside the liver), and the gallbladder. It is called “biliary” because it involves the organs that are responsible for producing and storing bile and releasing it into the small intestines at the right time.
The gallbladder is located under the liver in the upper right section of your abdomen, and it’s about the size of a pear. It is located in the outer part of the biliary system (extrahepatic) and receives bile from the liver through cystic ducts 1.
It’s important first to understand what bile is and its functions because gallbladder revolves around storing and releasing bile.
Bile is a unique watery secretion produced by the liver that plays several significant roles in the healthy functioning of the human body. It’s made up of 95% water with dissolved solid constituents such as bile salts, bilirubin phospholipid, cholesterol, amino acids, and more 2.
Bile is usually produced when you eat food, especially food rich in fats and the production of bile lowers during fasting.
The two primary roles of bile are:
Fat absorption and digestion
Bile plays a vital role in emulsifying fats and making it easier for digestion. It does this by breaking down large lipid droplets into smaller ones which increases surface area for the digestive enzymes to do their work 3. The average bile flow in humans is approximately 600 mL/day.
If bile is not present, your body will find it harder to digest fats, and thus a lot of it may get excreted via feces. The result will be a fatty stool that looks white or grey and is oily. The absence of bile is called steatorrhea, and this condition can cause fatty acid and fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies.
On top of that, steatorrhea might also create problems in the large intestine because gastrointestinal] tract and gut flora are not adapted to processing fats.
Getting rid of waste products
Bile eliminates excess cholesterol in your body by converting them into bile salts which allows your body to maintain cholesterol homeostasis.
The two primary functions of the gallbladder are:
Excess bile produced by the liver is sent to the gallbladder where it will be stored until the next digestive period. When you eat, the endocrine cells are stimulated to release a hormone called cholecystokinin (CCK). This hormone controls the stimulation of the smooth muscle contraction of the gallbladder while causing the sphincter of Oddi to relax and this allows gallbladder to release the stored bile into the small intestine.
When you’re not eating (think sleeping or fasting for instance), the sphincter of Oddi contracts which prevents the flow of bile into the small intestines. This contraction increases pressure in the bile duct and stimulates the flow of bile into the gallbladder. The bile becomes concentrated when the epithelial cells reabsorb water and electrolytes in the gallbladder.
Gallbladder and Liver: How They Work Together
As discussed above, the gallbladder acts as a support system for the liver to control the release of bile into the small intestine. The liver produces bile which gets transported into the gallbladder through the hepatic and cystic ducts.
When you eat food, cholecystokinin (CCK) hormone stimulates the gallbladder to open and release bile into the duodenum (first part of the small intestine). When you’re not eating, bile is stored in the gallbladder where it gets concentrated and ready to be released upon the next stimulation via food.
Conditions Where the Gallbladder Needs to Be Removed
This is when gallstones form in the gallbladder. The stones can be as small as a grain or as large as a golf ball. Some symptoms of cholelithiasis include sharp pain in the right abdomen, vomiting, and nausea 4.
This condition is when there’s an inflammation in the gallbladder. It is also known as gallbladder infection which is often caused by gallstones described above.
This is when there are stones in the common bile duct which plays an essential role in transporting bile from the liver to the gallbladder 5.
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas which is often caused by gallstones 6.
What Happens If My Gallbladder Is Removed?
If your gallbladder has been removed due to conditions such as the ones we’ve discussed above, it means the liver has lost a vital member of the biliary system. The bile produced by the liver now has nowhere to be stored in between meals.
Sensing that the gallbladder is gone, the liver will continue to produce bile but will release it in smaller portions into the small intestine. The problem, however, is that your liver may not always know when to release large amounts of bile and when to release smaller amounts.
It will take some time for the liver to get used to functioning without the help of gallbladder and you may experience some side effects of malabsorption whenever the liver fails to send the right amount of bile to help digest your food. Some of these side effects may include bloating, gas, and diarrhea.
In short: It’s possible to return to your regular diet after having the gallbladder removed, however, you will need to give it a month or more and train your body to adapt to the changes slowly.
Can I Do the Keto Diet Without My Gallbladder?
As stated above, without the gallbladder, the bile has nowhere to be stored and thus will get released directly into the small intestine. Sometimes the liver may release too much bile, and sometimes the liver may release too little bile.
As discussed earlier, bile is essential for the absorption of fats which is why those who’ve had their gallbladder are often advised to follow a low-fat diet until the body adjusts to living without a gallbladder.
Since the liver may not always send the right amount of bile into the small intestine, this means that if you eat high-fat foods, the fat might not get digested properly and result in malabsorption of fat-soluble vitamins such as Vitamin K and E.
Does That Mean You Cannot Be on Keto Without a Gallbladder?
Fortunately, you can. However, you will need to take baby steps and some precautions until your body becomes used to a high-fat diet. If you rush and start the diet suddenly, you may fall prey for symptoms related to fat malabsorption.
One such symptom is light colored, soft and bulky stools with bad odor. They may also leave greasy marks on the side of the toilet and/or stick to the side. Other significant symptoms include bloating, gas, and diarrhea.
If you want to avoid that, you need to take a slow step by step approach to have a smooth transition into the ketogenic diet.
How to Do a Keto Diet Following A Gallbladder Removal
STEP 1: Reduce carb intake slowly
The keyword here is “slowly.” If you’re currently consuming over 150 grams of carbs per day, you don’t want to suddenly drop it to under 50 grams for the keto diet. Take it slow and work on reducing your carb intake by one meal at a time.
So for example, you could try eating scrambled eggs with a small slice of grass-fed butter instead of eggs and toast for breakfast. You might want to use stevia in your tea and coffee instead of sugar.
Take it slow and reduce your carb intake slowly while simultaneously adding more fat. But remember the key is to reduce the carbs gradually and increase the fats slowly day by day. If you experience any adverse effects during this time, you might want to take a step back and increase your carb intake a little bit to see if that makes a difference.
STEP 2: Eat more MCTs instead of LCTs.
Foods that are rich in long chain fatty acids require the help of bile to break them down before being absorbed. As discussed earlier, in people without a gallbladder, the liver may sometimes send too little bile than what’s required. You may experience malabsorption symptoms if this happens after you eat a meal rich in long chain fatty acids.
Medium chain triglycerides, on the other hand, do not require the help of bile to break them down before being digested. Foods rich in MCTs are grass fed butter and coconut oil. You can swap your regular butter for grass-fed butter and also combine coconut oil for cooking.
STEP 3: Incorporate MCT Oil
MCT oil is a supplement that contains the concentrated form of MCTs found in coconut oil. The premium MCT oil is usually made out of capric acid, caprylic acid, or a combination of both. It gets absorbed by the liver quickly to be used as fuel and has been proven to provide many health benefits. One of those benefits is that since MCTs can be converted into ketones, it can make it easier to get into and sustain ketosis when you’re on the ketogenic diet 7.
Caution: The maximum recommended dosage for MCT oil is 2 tbsp per day, but you should start with a much lower dose of about 1 tsp per day for two weeks and then increase the dosage gradually.
STEP 4: Hydration
The importance of staying hydrated is often ignored or overlooked. Water is essential for the healthy function of liver and bile so make sure you’re drinking plenty of clean water every day. This doesn’t mean you should gulp down a bottle of water in one go. Drink a glass when you wake up and whenever you’re thirsty. Also, drink a glass of water before you go to sleep.
STEP 5: Water interval in between meals
Drinking water right before, during, or right after your meal can dilute the stomach acids that are needed for the healthy digestion of your food. Try not to drink water 30 minutes before and after your meal to avoid this.
STEP 6: Bile healthy teas
You might want to start drinking ginger and dandelion teas because they’re both excellent for the liver and bile. Ginger, for instance, is packed with a lot of medicinal properties such as antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, and promotes healthy digestion. One cup a day is all you need to reap the benefits of ginger tea 8,9.
Although the idea of being on the ketogenic diet might put you off if you’ve had your gallbladder removed, it’s certainly possible if you follow the right steps such as the ones we’ve discussed.
The key is to take a slow baby approach and avoid jumping on the diet on full mode. The slow approach will give your body enough time to get used to the reduced carb intake and increased fat intake so it can safely prepare to run on ketosis.
Please don’t forget to consult your doctor before starting the diet to make sure you’re on the safe side. If you experience any adverse effects, you may want to take a step back and up your carb intake a little again to see if that helps.

Hi everyone. It’s a new Saturday, and I’m here with a new release. This time, it’s something different. It’s my very first contemporary, and a sort of gay-for-you story, one I very much enjoyed writing. I hope you like it too.
Criminal attorney Heath Thorpe thought he knew where his life was headed—until he meets a leggy brunette named Ashley at his brother’s wedding. Instantly drawn to the mysterious beauty, Heath is beyond shocked when it turns out she is actually a he. What is even more surprising is that Heath doesn’t mind as much as he thought he would.
Both of them know better than to pursue the attraction. But it’s a wedding, and they’re only human. They have sex anyway.
Neither of them expect anything to come out of it. They’re too different, and Heath is still struggling with his sexuality. But when Ashley becomes the target of a vicious homophobic attack, it will be up to Heath to save him—in more than one way.
Buy link: All Romance.
I have also uploaded the book on Draft 2 Digital, which means that it should be available on the rest of the distributors sometime next week.
Thank you for your interest and happy reading!

Nitric oxide[ edit ] Nitric oxide NO acts as a second messenger because it is a free radical that can diffuse through the plasma membrane and affect nearby cells.
Epithelial cells which are non-circulating normally have active integrins at their cell membrane, helping maintain their stable adhesion to underlying stromal cells that provide signals to maintain normal functioning.
Activated receptors stimulate second messenger production, which in turn activate other enzymes and so the cascade continues. Examples include superoxidehydrogen peroxidecarbon monoxideand hydrogen sulfide. Signaling within, between, and amongst cells is subdivided into the following classifications: However, cell signaling may also occur between the cells of two different organisms.

Paracrine signals such as retinoic acid target only cells in the vicinity of the emitting cell. Intracellular receptor Intracellular receptors, such as nuclear receptors and cytoplasmic receptorsare soluble proteins localized within their respective areas.
In a healthy organism, the processes of cellular growth and differentiation are tightly controlled, but in the pathological state, are uncoupled in such a way as to result in further damage-causing signals, or the growth of the malfunctioning cells.

Signal transduction. Signal transduction is the process by which the signal provided by the first messenger (i.e., the growth factor or other signaling molecule) is translated into an intracellular response.
Signal Transduction. Signal transduction (also known as cell signaling) is the transmission of molecular signals from a cell's exterior to its interior.
Signals received by cells must be transmitted effectively into the cell to ensure an appropriate response. Cell signaling (cell signalling in British English) is part of any communication process that governs basic activities of cells and coordinates all cell actions.
The ability of cells to perceive and correctly respond to their microenvironment is the basis of development, tissue repair, and immunity, as well as normal tissue homeostasis.
Signal transduction is the process by which a chemical or physical signal is transmitted through a cell as a series of molecular events, most commonly protein phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinases, which ultimately results in a cellular response.Download

Lois Steinberg Recognized for Service as Westchester Program Director at the
Medicare Rights Center
-- Luncheon Honors Ms. Steinberg and Westchester Volunteers,
Marks Older Americans Month --
Westchester County, NY –Lois Steinberg, Ph.D., who will be stepping down at the end of May as Westchester Program Director at the Medicare Rights Center, will be recognized for service at a volunteer appreciation luncheon on May 12. During her tenure at Medicare Rights, she developed and launched Seniors Out Speaking on Medicare (SOS), an award-winning program that trains and mobilizes volunteers to educate their peers about Medicare issues.
“What Lois has achieved with the SOS program is truly remarkable,” said Joe Baker, president of the Medicare Rights Center. “She built, from the ground up, a hugely successful program that empowers older adults to cut through the confusion surrounding Medicare and become their own health advocates. It is difficult to imagine our programs in Westchester without Lois at the helm, but her work has prepared us well for our current and future growth. We wish her all the best as she begins this new chapter in her life.”
“Launching our educational programs in Westchester and watching them grow has been a great source of joy for me,” said Dr. Steinberg. “Although it is time for me to move on, the time is also right to continue and expand this work. Health care is becoming increasingly complicated and expensive, and being informed is the key to navigating the Medicare system and getting the care you need.”
At the volunteer appreciation luncheon, Medicare Rights will mark Older Americans Month and honor Dr. Steinberg and the team of volunteers that bring Medicare information to thousands of people each year in Westchester County.
“How fitting it is to honor our hardworking volunteers during Older Americans Month,” said Flo Brodley, deputy director of the SOS program in Westchester. “Navigating Medicare is no easy task, but our volunteers dedicate their time and energy to leading their fellow older Americans through the maze.”
In recent years, the SOS program has expanded far beyond Westchester County. SOS Medicare Minutes, the cornerstone of the SOS program, are currently being led by SOS volunteers in several New York locations (Westchester County, New York City and Long Island), and in New Jersey, Maryland and Kansas. In addition, new programs are scheduled for launch in Alabama, Florida and Wisconsin, with launches being planned in Arkansas and Maine.
A search is currently underway for a new coordinator for the Medicare Rights Center’s programs in Westchester. Dr. Steinberg is co-founder and current president of the Center for Aging in Place, an organization devoted to developing aging-in-place communities throughout Westchester County. She will continue to serve the SOS program as a consultant.
Dr. Steinberg holds two degrees in sociology, an M.A. from Columbia University, a Ph.D. from Fordham University and an M.P.S. from the Health Advocacy Program at Sarah Lawrence College. She was named a Purpose Prize Fellow by Civic Ventures in 2008, and was inducted into Westchester's Senior Hall of Fame in 2007.

Over the course of the three-day event, Orbital ATK conducted more than 2,000 rocket launches using a pneumatic launcher, dubbed “Fly Me to the Moon!” Here, students compared rockets made of four different materials—carbon, aluminum, titanium, and steel—and launched the rocket they believed would gain the most altitude. Many future rocket scientists challenged their friends in side-by-side launches, testing their hypotheses in real-time.
Students also learned about aerospace structural engineering by testing five different materials (steel, titanium, aluminum, carbon composite and oak) helping illustrate the complexity of designing an aerospace structure, whether a rocket, plane, or satellite. Students tested the strength of each material by attaching weights and measuring the material’s deflection—the less deflection, the better the material. While many students hypothesized that the heaviest material would be the strongest, they quickly learned that the composite material was the stiffest—and the lightest. Students left the demonstration surprised, intrigued, and thrilled about the possibility of working as an aerospace engineer.
The Utah STEM Fest is a prime example of Orbital ATK’s commitment to supporting the next generation of aerospace pioneers and ensuring students have the skills and education they need to succeed in STEM fields. Thanks to all those who helped create these learning opportunities and to those who volunteered at this tremendous educational event.
