The Best Glossy White Paints
This Post May Contain Affiliate Links. Please Read my Disclosure Policy.
What is the best glossy white paint for painting furniture, interior doors, and trim? I have two favorites – one is water-based the other oil-based. Both produce a high gloss sheen.
I have another furniture painting project to show that I did in my bedroom.
It is the mirror that is above my dresser. I painted it with glossy white paint. I wanted the mirror to “pop” against the flat paint finish on the wall.
As you can see from the photo above, the white paint is very glossy and looks so nice against the flat grey-blue wall color.
The Story Behind The Glossy White Painted Mirror
Even though the mirror was a new purchase from Home Goods, it needed paint. It has a little history…
Remember when Better Homes & Gardens came to my house to take photos of my home for their Christmas Ideas magazine last year? Well, that is when the mirror came into my life as a “FIX”. See it hanging over the fireplace in the photo above?
The reason I bought it in the first place was because BHG asked me to find a way to hide the flat screen TV above the fireplace in my family room. Once the photoshoot was completed, the mirror came down and the TV went back up.
I was left with a nice white framed mirror with no place to call home.
Since I liked it, I took it from room to room around my house to find a permanent home for it.
It became the replacement for an old, pitted, and tarnished mirror that was part of the dresser in my bedroom.
- See what I did with the old mirror – Repurposed Mirror Coffee Table
I propped the new mirror right up against the old one.
With the dresser newly painted, I wanted the mirror to be bright, white, and super shiny to add a contrast against the flat paint finish on the walls. The original rustic white finish on the mirror is nice, but didn’t add the contrast I was seeking. I wanted a more bright and modern vibe.
What Are the Best Glossy White Paints?
I have two favorite glossy white paints. Each one dries to a super shiny finish. One is oil-based and the other latex.
Oil-Based Glossy White Paint
I used the oil-based option on the mirror. I know you are going to ask why would I use oil-based when there is a high gloss latex on the market to use?
The reason is that the oil-based formula creates a glass-like shine with zero brush strokes. When painting large flat surfaces in gloss this is a good thing since many strokes of a paint brush are needed to cover the area. Tabletops, counters, doors will be as smooth and shiny as glass with no brush marks in the finish.
I am not a fan of using oil-based paint, this is the only one I will ever use and I have only used it a few times. I first used Glidden Trim, Door, & Furniture paint on the desk in my studioffice a few years ago. That is when I became a fan of the paint. It creates one amazing glass-like finish. On certain pieces where I want super high shine, I take the time to use it.
It is a gel-formula paint that I will admit is hard to get comfortable using. It is thick and hard to spread the usual way, it just takes a little time to get adjusted. It self-levels which is the quality I like the most and the reason it dries to a glass-like shine.
I would not use this paint on a piece of furniture that does not get a lot of sunlight. Oil-based paints will darken and yellow when they are in dark rooms. Both the rooms where I have used it get lots of light. It is a great paint for using on an exterior front door. It comes in only a few basic colors.
Water-Based Glossy White Paint
My other go-to gloss formula of paint is much easier to use. It is Rustoleum Painter’s Touch Ultra Cover. It also dries to a super shiny finish, but does not self-level. Even with that said, you will not be disappointed in the sheen of this paint. I used it to paint the recessed lights in my house as well as the window trim. I like to see a high glossy shine around lights and windows. It makes them pop. This paint is the best for when you want high gloss and easy clean up.
When using either formula, make sure to use a high quality brush. When you have a great paint brush, your painted finish will look like a pro did it.
You may think the brush doesn’t matter and you are saving money buying a “cheap” brush for your painting projects, but your painted finish will show brush marks and stray bristles will end up in the finish.
Buy the best brush you can afford, clean it well after each use and you will have it for a long time saving you money in the long run. I use Purdy brushes exclusively.
Another paint tip when using a gloss paint finish: Gloss paint will show every imperfection on the surface of the item you want to paint. If there are any imperfections on the finish, gloss paint will magnify them.
Make sure you sand the surface first. Use a hand sanding block to go over the surface to smooth out any ridges or paint drips from a previous paint job. Use a tack cloth to remove all the grit and then paint.
You can see how shiny the paint is. The trim on the white doors to the right of the dresser have a semi-gloss finish.
The paint I used on these is Valspar Bistro White. I love the contrast, especially when using lots of white in a room or a monochromatic color scheme. Having different textures and sheens of one color are what make a room look visually more appealing and add interest.
Do you have a favorite brand of glossy white paint that you like to use?
Your paint tips are great! Thank you for sharing them.
I know you love chalk paint and use it often on furniture pieces. Please remind me what color blue chalk paint you used on that chest/buffet you have in your entry hall. It’s a medium to dark blue paint and I remember you sealed that piece with clear wax and then used black wax over it for a wonderful effect. That’s my favorite project you’ve ever done!
Hi Zoe – That furniture makeover is very popular. It did come out great. I use Chalky Chicks Paint in DC Blue. You can see it here: https://amzn.to/3XMHgVJ
On the wall what kind is the blue gray
Hi Sandy – The blue grey on the walls is Behr Rhythmic Blue #6806. If it looks too bright you can also check out Glidden Bastille Blue 90BG 64/101
I just finished painting all the trim in my house with Sherwin Williams latex enamel. It was AMAZING paint!
It smoothed to a gorgeous finish- even on the crown moulding. My brother helped paint and said it was the best trim paint he’d ever used.
It’s pricey-$70 a gallon (on sale!) but worth every penny.
Hi Judy – Sherwin Williams is my go-to paint for big projects like walls and kitchen cabinets. It is what I used to paint my cabinets. I agree it is the best. I like the Pro Classic Water-based Alkyd formula. It is priced right in the middle of their paint line up so it is not too expensive as some of the other formulas. When doing painting around a house, you don’t realize just how good one paint is over another until you use a good one. :-)
Where in the world did you get the lovely chair caning motif bedspread? Love, love, love it! Course, I’m very partial to chair caning materials and am always “cane spotting”!
Hi Cathryn – I bought the bedspread at Penney’s about 6 years ago. It was from the Jonathan Adler collection they used to sell.
Thank you for the great painting tips!
What colour, make of paint did you use for your doors and trim in the room?
Everything looks amazing!
Hi Maire – The paint color on the doors and trim in the bedroom is Valspar Bistro White in a semi-gloss finish.
Thanks for your post.
For me, temperature was a definite factor (too cold in garage) with the Glidden Door and Trim, couldn’t get a smooth finish. My fault.
Sanded and redid it with the Glidden again in house (warmer). Finish not great but by then I deemed it acceptable for picture ledges!
BUT the Glidden Trim and Door yellowed after just a few months. Repainted with the $9 can of Rust-Oleum white gloss enamel even though I hate the clean up. Still bright white, glassy, and cost half the price!
Just my two cents!
Going to paint an outside metal door. It has been painted with latex. Do I have to prime if I use oil base.
Hi Vin –
No you don’t have to prime as oil will go over latex. If you were painting latex over oil, then you would need to prime. For your door, I would go over it with 100 grit sandpaper to provide some “tooth” for the new paint to adhere. Clean the surface well with hot sudsy water, rinse and let dry, then paint. Use only light coats. More light coats will adhere better than one or two thick ones.
I am planning to take your advice and use the Glidden to paint a found captain’s desk (aka executive desk). Which Purdy brush should I purchase if I can only purchase one for the project? Also, do you have a favorite brush cleaner?
Hi Alexia – I would get a 2-1/2″ wide angled brush. They have a few different types: Clearcut, XL, and another one that I can’t think of the name. I use the XL to paint furniture and the Clearcut (Stiff) to paint trim around windows, ceilings and doors. If you clean the brush as soon as you are finished using it and blot it with a towel and then hang it to dry, it will last for years. I don’t use brush cleaner, I use Dawn dish detergent or Dove Moisturizing hand soap to clean.
Hi Alexis – I just re-read your comment and realized you are going to use the oil-based Glidden paint. The XL brush will work, but you can also consider using the angled brush made for oil-based paints. I think it is called Black Bristle. As far as brush cleaner to clean oil-based paint from the brush, I have always used Mineral Spirits, but any oil-based brush cleaner will be fine and then Dawn dish detergent after all the oil-paint is out of the brush.
What would you use to paint a kitchen table in high gloss? I have modern copycat Eames chairs but the table is country style and I want to update it in a modern high gloss white paint to look more cohesive until I can buy a more modern one. Thanks for any input you can lend me.
I want a HIGH gloss white paint for the inside of windows. Are these still your two favorite two white high gloss paints?
several years ago, I was able to buy great interior high gloss paint – but now they have mixed it all with primer which is NOT high gloss but is dull and thick like pudding. There is no sheen when the primer is added to the paint.
Which of the two (if they are still your favorites) would you use to paint the inside of windows?
Hi – It is hard to find high very high gloss paint. The two I wrote about are still my favorite. Either would work inside a window, I used the Glidden to do just that in my previous house. The downside of using it is that it is oil-based and takes a long time to dry. It is a gel formula and is very thick, very different from most paints. The Rustoleum brand is much easier to work with and dries fast.
Thank you so much! I am glad I found your site.
Wow thank you so much for sharing this article. I’m a college student with lots of hand-me-down furniture and so I’m excited to re-vamp it using the techniques you’ve shared!
Hi Diane, Do you recall the brand and name of the lavendar paint you used on the dresser in the photo above? It’s really pretty and I’d like to use it on mine. Thanks for all the great info on your blog–one of my faves!
Thanks Kat. It is nice to hear that my blog is one of your faves. XO I wrote an entire post about painting the dresser. I used Behr paint. You can find out all the details here: https://inmyownstyle.com/2015/03/modern-paint-finish-using-diy-chalk-paint.html
Hi Diane, are there any pieces of furniture that you would not use a high gloss paint on? I have an old hutch, and was thinking I could use the bottom of it for storage in an extra room after painting it, but as much as I like the high gloss I didn’t know if this project would be too much “high gloss”. Thank you for all of your info on DIY!!!
Hi Hariette – High gloss looks nice on all furniture. It really depends on what else is in the room. I like to see different textures and sheens in a space. It will add more interest to the room. If there is already something in the room that is in high gloss, it could be too much, but if there is nothing else in the room except the doors and trim that have a sheen, I would go ahead and paint hutch bottom using high gloss. It will look fabulous.
The only thing to think about: If painting with a light color, don’t use oil-based paint if the room doesn’t get a lot of light. It will yellow over time. Use a water-based high gloss paint, you can use it on all pieces of furniture and in any light.
Diane, just stumbled upon this blog and glad I did! You’ve got great ideas here and your paint choices are two of our favorites! I’m a big fan of Gidden and glossy paints add some really great texture and light many of the rooms we work on. Keep up the great work!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have a number of items that need to be painted gloss white. I’ve tried several paints and none gives the finish I want – and that you achieved.
Do you always have to sand and prime before painting baseboards and door trim? Can you just wipe it all down with liquid sander or tsp or something and paint it with a fresh coat of paint? Will it stick? Also, unrelated, is there ANY way at all to really clean matte finish paint? We have it from end to end in our house and twin preschoolers. The do not mix well!
Hi Cathleen – I would only prime baseboards if they had oil-based paint on them and I was going to use latex over it. If you don’t prime in this situation, the latex will rub right off when it is dry. When I am repainting with latex over latex, I simply clean the baseboards well with detergent, rinse, and dry. Then paint.
The only way I know of to clean flat or matte surfaces is with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. It gets off quite a bit. They sell them in the cleaning aisle at the supermarket.
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFO ON PAINTING. I DID NOT GET THIS INFO FROM THE STORE.
The mirror is beautiful and I love how the shine pops in the room. When it comes to choosing paint, I’m at a complete loss. The baseboards in my home need painting. Could you please suggest something. I want a nice sheen, maybe something I could use on door frames also. I know you are a busy bee and I hate bothering you with my problem but I trust you. If you told me to jump I’d jump…Lol. Thanks Diane
I like your finished dresser & mirror so much! The periwinkle is so pretty–one of my favs! Have you ever used BM Advance paint? It’s an alkyd that comes in waterborne version & I LOVE it! I dont love to paint & avoided gloss like the plague due to all the brush marks & application difficulties. But, this paint has changed my mind–we are methodically (read: slowly) changing all our interior trim & baseboards. I am the designated painter & the Advance has made me look like a Pro–self-leveling, smooth application & water cleanup, using both semi gloss & high gloss. I sound like a free commercial–but with all the wonderful rips & projects you share, wanted to reciprocate with one I love.
Do you have a tutorial on painting the recessed lights? Never thought of it but it would definitely brighten spots of our home, great idea. Thanks.
Sorry, didn’t see the highlighted link to them, found it!
You’re right, the glossy mirror looks great against the flat paint on the wall! Fun little update with a bright impact
I wish I had asked you before buying the Behr Premium Plus….. Interior/Exterior Hi Gloss Enamel. I got the Ultra Pure White. But I am afraid to even try using it…… I can not get my baseboards smooth for anything…. too many layers of not properly applied paint I guess? The trim around the insuite bath…… just peeled off.. …… but of course not completely or smoothly……… SCREAM. I wish I could replace them, but no money and my BF says I will tear up the wall if I try removing them (thinking I would soak scrape or whatever and then put them back on)…….. he says NO……… and I am a coward.
Hi Sheryll – Behr is a great brand to use. As you stated there are too many layers of previous paint for you to get a smooth finish. The baseboards can be stripped, but that is a huge job. If the paint came off on the trim around your in-suite bath, it could be that you used latex over a previous paint finish of oil-based paint. You need to use a primer first, then a latex when painting over oil and the peeling won’t happen. I use Glidden Gripper to do this. The builder of my house used all oil on the trim. I almost have it all repainted. It only took 20 years :-)
I love this high gloss paint . I would love to try it .
What color did you use on your door frame then ? What about the actual door?
And the ceiling , what sheen is that ? And color . TIA :)
I love your dresser too
Hi Kathy – The door and frame is Sherwin Williams Pure White. The ceiling is Valspar right off the shelf white in flat.

We went to a really cute birthday party on Sunday afternoon for one of Makgill’s friends, Zoe. It was a “painting party,” and each kid had a canvas to paint. So creative! Great idea, Morgan! Unfortunately, our little budding artist was NOT in the mood to paint. No amount of persuasion was going to get Makgill to put any paint on that canvas. So we came home with a blank canvas and the hopes of making something marvelous one day this week. We will post pics of the masterpiece when it is finished. You can’t rush an artist, you know. Like everything else, Mak will do it IN HIS TIME!!! We had a great time at the party. Happy Birthday, Zoe!
All of the beautiful art
So proud of himself!

Why worksite wellness programs? Because employed people spend approximately 36 percent of their waking hours at work. That makes the worksite an excellent place to influence and encourage healthy behaviors around eating, physical activity, and managing stress.
In Haywood County of North Carolina, 61 percent of the population is either overweight or obese. This has a huge impact on the health of the community.
Haywood County is also home Old Town Bank (OTB). As a local and thriving small business, OTB has a good reason to care about the health of its employees and surrounding community.
President & CEO Charles Umberger recognizes the importance of good employee health. Employees are any business’s greatest asset! Improving the health and wellbeing of OTB employees is always at the forefront of the mind of Lurissia Hendrix, Human Resources Director at OTB. When she met MountainWise’s Melissa Rockett, Hendrix seized the opportunity to take advantage of WorkWise, our worksite wellness initiative.
MountainWise worked closely with OTB to tailor a worksite wellness program that met OTB’s unique needs. Now OTB’s program is beginning to influence the whole community.
As Umberger says in the video, “Any employer needs to look at developing and growing and having a work environment where its employees feel good about the place they work, they feel healthy. Worksite wellness is a critical part of that for any employer.”
Take a look and hear how OTB’s program is making for happier, healthier employees.

Acute jealousy aside, the latest iteration of Pharrell’s adidas Hu NMD collaboration is aptly called Blank Canvas - inspired by the musician’s recent trip to India, where he experienced the Hindu festival of Holi, in which attendees pelt one another with powders dyed every conceivable hue. And so in typical Pharrell style, the Blank Canvas is an invitation to personalise your kicks, although the pristine white colourway looks perfectly good to us.
Other important hardware details? A white lining and laces, the signature Boost midsole, a jagged outsole and the word ‘World’ embossed on the Primeknit upper.
Now. The Hu NMD Holi Blank Canvas might be the poster boys of the summer sneaker season, the freshest trainers in your rotation, but there’s more in this pack to look out for: Pharrell has also applied the Blank Canvas motif to a pair of Tennis Hu PK sneakers and some Stan Smiths that feature a Primeknit upper and leather upper.
The Pharrell x adidas Hu Holi “Blank Canvas” drop on Feb 23rd. Keep checking Farfetch if you want to score a pair.

Without any obvious cuts, this 14-minute demo in 4K and 30 frames per second (with no information on possible performance mode) however seemed to have been scaled to the nearest hair to dazzle with its atmospheric changes, each of California’s post-environments being richer and more amazing than the next We know its wars, all of which are provided by music. At the technical and artistic level, the development of the game on two generations of consoles does not seem to have dulled the Dutch studio in its ambitions.
So, in the West, is there anything new on the game page? Some little things, all the same. Aside from the possibility of exploring the seas with a diving mask that allows you not to worry about time spent in the water, Alloy seems to have gotten some combos and made attacks to make his spear more effective during combat in the water. Melee, especially to find an opening and pursue with a deadly arrow, without forgetting the dynamics of “Sursat de Brower”, with a small arena shonen. If the climbing method does not seem to have greatly improved (a scanning system allows to highlight the points of connection), Alloy certainly received two tools, but they were absent in the first episode, and they make the study more flexible: a grapple and an ailegide (parachute). A bit like a Just Cause, the alloy allows you to pick up height from the ground and then deploy his mechanical parachute. The latter was already missed in the first episode whenever Alloy was at the top of a summit, and the player wanted to push themselves into the void to enjoy the show, as we did in a particular game. From Nintendo released at the same time.
The events take place six months laterHarrison Zero Dawn, The search for this demo features the release of Aloy’s comrade Erend, who has gone in search of an important artifact to excavate the ruins of San Francisco, which “Neil” will go down a path in his fight against Vermilion Blake. It threatens the whole environment. Arriving at the camp, Alloy confronts a group of robbers from a unit that diverts the machines into battle clouds, starting with this imposing mammoth. The slight disappointment of the evening would have ended the show due to the lack of a release date. “We do not have an exact release date yet, but growth is on track and we will hear from you very soon.“, We are told.

THE DAYDREAM CLUB "LUX"
If you're new to The Daydream Club then "Lux" is a good place to start learning what they're all about. If you're already a fan then you're in for a treat. The husband and wife multi-genre duo (aka Adam & Paula) cover a lot of musical ground in this deluxe double album.
The first half features the original take of the songs with a mostly indie-folk angle and the second half sees the duo pulling their usual trick of remixing themselves to flip the songs on their head into more of an alternative, electronic, beats orientation.
Throughout, you can expect The Daydream Clubs trademark boy/girl vocals on top of a bed of lush, instrumental layers and subtleties reserved for those who wish to dig a little deeper into headphone territory.
The album is made up partly of previously released back catalogue and brand new tracks. For the first time, they are all pulled together in one ambitiously adventurous album that sets the sonic bar wide open for the bands future releases.

Instant Pot Cheeseburger Macaroni
- 1 lb Laura's Lean Ground Beef (96% lean)
- 16 ozs Short, uncooked whole grain of regular pasta noodles like macaroni, shells, penne, bowties.
- 1/2 Medium onion (diced)
- 1 tbsp Garlic (minced)
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 tsps Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard or mustard powder
- 2 tbsps Tomato paste
- 4 cups Low-sodium beef broth
- 1 cup Reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup Non-fat plain Greek yogurt or non-fat sour cream
- 3 tbsps Mild cheese dip (Fritos mild cheese dip - this is optional but highly recommended for extra cheesiness)
*Serving calculations based on 12oz beef products.
For 10oz beef products reduce serving size by 1/4.
- Prep Time: 5 Minutes
- Cook Time: 25 Minutes
- Total Time: 30 Minutes
Serving size based on 1 cup (242g)
1. Spray the bottom of the Instant Pot with non-stick cooking spray. Set your Instant Pot to the "sauté" mode.
2. Add the lean ground beef and sauté the ground beef until it’s no longer pink, about 5 minutes-while breaking the ground beef into crumbles.
3. Add onions and garlic and sauté for another 1 minute.
4. Add Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper to pot. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
5. Pour 1/2 cup of beef broth and scrape the bottom of the pot to release any pieces of beef that may be stuck to the bottom of the pot. This will prevent the burn indicator on the instant pot when pressure cooking.
6. Stir in the remaining beef broth and macaroni.
7. Cover and lock the lid. Make sure the valve points to "sealed." Change setting to manual and adjust time to 5 minutes on High Pressure.
8. Once Instant Pot beeps to show that it's done, wait 5 minutes. (It can take up to 15 minutes for it to pressurize)
9. After it beeps-do a quick release, by changing the position of the valve to "vent." Carefully remove lid and stir. Tip: Be careful of the steam. You may want to put a paper towel over the vent to do the quick release.
10. Stir in the shredded cheese, sour cream or non-fat plain Greek yogurt, and Tostitos cheese dip until well combined.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

After 20 years of language teaching in Tokyo, Japan, the last thing on my mind was thinking about what other passions I wanted to pursue.
Then, in the summer of 2015, I was diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis, spinal cord inflammation. My condition declined rapidly, and I was hospitalized for 8 months before learning I would be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life. As you can imagine, my life was flipped upside-down in an instant. I had to ask my sons and husband often to help me with the everyday tasks I could no longer do. I was grateful to have such a supportive family, but I wanted to be more independent and do something I wouldn’t have to rely on others for.
Since one thing I could do by myself was make coffee and tea, I bought a cup and saucer, which happened to be Joshua Blue by Yoshito Takenishi, who would later become one of WΛZΛ Tokyo’s first artists. Every morning, while I made coffee to put in my cup after everybody left for school and work, I felt the control over my life come back.
After things started to slow down, I realized that there was so much beautiful Japanese tableware that made me feel a spark of joy. I started thinking about how I could share them with the world.
WΛZΛ Tokyo was found with a goal to collaborate with ceramicists that preserve Japan's traditions, make their art and stories available, and bring Japanese beauty and craftsmanship to the American table. In doing so, I have been able to make many new friendships, and I am honored to share with you the passion and creativity of these talented artists.

Dhaka, Bangladesh (BBN) – The government has raised the compressed natural gas (CNG) price by BDT 5.0 to BDT 30 per unit (1.0 cubic metre) from BDT 25 per unit, officials said.
The Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) announced the new price, effective from Tuesday saying the hike was necessary in view of the increased prices of petroleum products.
The decision to raise CNG price came within a day of the petroleum price hike which has been increased within the range between 6.32 percent and 19.04 percent by an executive order.
The government raised fuel prices by BDT 5.0 per litre for diesel, kerosene, petrol and octane and BDT 8.0 per litre for furnace oil Sunday.
Meanwhile, the state-run Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) increased the fare of CNG-driven bus and minibus by BDT 0.05 per kilometer and CNG-driven auto-rickshaw by BDT 0.14 per km effective from Tuesday.
The bus and minibus fare has been increased to BDT 1.60 per km from the previous BDT 1.55 in Dhaka following the hike.
For Chittagong the fare for bus and minibus has been increased to BDT 1.50 per km from the previous BDT 1.45.
Fare for CNG-driven auto-rickshaw has been fixed at BDT 7.64 per km from the previous BDT 7.50.
This is, however, the second hike in fare of transports in the past four months following the hike of petroleum products and CNG prices.
The Awami League-led alliance government increased the CNG price to BDT 25 per cubic metre from BDT 16.75 once before on May 13.

CANADIAN AUDIT OF KANEHSATAKE OPERATIONS IN 2004 “WHITE WASHES” INDIAN AFFAIRS CORRUPTION
MNN. May 2, 2008. Ottawa has just issued a 108-page report on a forensic audit on the Kanehsatake policing incident that began with a vicious attack on the Mohawks on the morning of January 12, 2004. There was nothing impromptu about this event. Indian Affairs, Emergency Preparedness, the Privy Council Office, the Treasury Board and the Prime Minister’s Office planned this set up that cost $34 million of Canadian taxpayer’s money. Kanehsatake’s membership is about 2,000 with only 1,300 living there. What was going on? They said there was “organized crime”, but they did not have enough evidence to lay any criminal charges. Even so, they sent 67 heavily armed mercenaries to invade this otherwise ordinary community.
Minister of Indian Affairs Chuck Strahl says he is mulling over whether further investigative steps should be taken. He says there is a “need for greater accountability, transparency and oversight for Aboriginal People and all Canadians”. You said it, buddy! But why do “Aboriginal” people need to be investigated? This was government corruption, plain and simple. With no justification at all, funds were diverted to conduct an armed attack on Mohawks with the help of the RCMP and the Quebec police! Don’t blame this gratuitous violence and graft on us! We’re the victims. We have nothing to account for. We had no control over any of the misplaced funds.
Kanehsatake is 60 kilometres northwest of Montreal. The Quebec police got $25 million in extra expenses. There are questions about unjustified overtime payments, strange “adjustments”, multiple payments for the same expenses and many other dubious claims. A whole whack of “Cabinet confidence documents” could not be included in the report. This cannot be called “transparency and accountability” by any stretch of the imagination!
Navigant Consulting, who compiled the report, was hired by Canada, the culprit. It was signed by Steve Whitla, 150 Metcalfe, Ottawa Ontario K2P 1P1 613-230-4546. We see this as a blatant attempt to “white wash” an attempted coup. The report does not mention the way these Canadian government agencies illegally ignored the community’s properly constituted Police Commission.
The report did acknowledge that 5 tasers and 6 vehicles went missing. It failed to address the illegal arsenal that was deployed. The government goons came in with vans, police cars, concussion grenades, “flash bangs”, tear gas, MP5s which are fully automatic with a silencer, AR15s, body bags, 308 Sniper Rifles, M14s, 20 calibre handguns, Beretta Pistols, 12-gauge shot guns, 37 mm. armor piercing anti-tank weapons, tasers, tear gas, pepper spray, ASP Batons, full riot gear such as shields, helmets, bullet-proof vests and over 77,000 rounds of ammunition. They had enough firepower to start a small arms war! This equipment is not appropriate for policing in a free and democratic society. Navigant didn’t ask where all the war toys went. They seem anxious to lay blame on the victims who were unarmed. [We could have thrown snowballs at them but would probably have been charged with attempted murder!]
There were inaccuracies on the timing of payments. According to PricewaterhouseCoopers “Detailed Trial Balance”, a $900,000 payment for the mercenaries and their arsenal and vehicles was made in July 2003. Navigant’s audit claimed it was made in November 2003 after James Gabriel wrote a letter on October 31, 2003 to Eric Maldoff, of Heenan Blaikie, the chief federal land claims negotiator. [It was both “trick and treat, eh! Eric!] What’s the deal here?
This scenario smells! The report did nothing to clarify how the government agents got James Gabriel to carry out the dirty work, stating, “Public Safety believes that they were dealing with a council that is quite amenable to our objectives”. In other words, they knew he was their stooge and they could use him to ride rough shod over the properly constituted Police Commission and any semblance of democratic due process.
The book, “Who’s Sorry Now? The Good, the bad and the unapologetic Mohawks of Kanehsatake” outlines this attack in great detail. [LINK]
Niocan Inc. has wanted to open up a mine for the niobium that lies under Kanehsatake for a long time. This is a rare mineral needed by the military for weaponry and space exploration. The Mohawks have resisted this dangerously toxic venture since the 1970s.
Eric Maldoff, the Heenan Blaikie ambulance chaser, controlled “Grand Chief” James Gabriel. Former Prime Minister, Jean Chretien, now of Heenan Blaikie, sent Eric Maldoff there to “keep Kanehsatake off the front pages”. Subsequent Prime Minister, Paul Martin, pushed the button to send in the goons to attack the Mohawks on that early morning of January 12, 2004. The report never gave any reason for this armed invasion. How is that?
Eric Maldoff has experience in Heenan Blaikie, the Privy Council Office and chief federal negotiator for Canada on the Kanehsatake “file”. Because of these connections, he was able to orchestrate this fiasco. Who benefited? Well, Eric and his bosses. This expensive and vicious attack didn’t do anything for the Mohawks or the Canadian people? It’s hard to tell the difference between this and being mugged on the street, isn’t it? At least the drug addict who mugs you does it to your face without pretending they’re doing you a favor!
A lot of planning went into this. The “Mohawk Coalition” was a corporation set up temporarily after the Mohawk Crisis of 1990 to get programs and an election going in the community. After it fell dormant, it was stolen by Clarence Simon, James Gabriel and Leona Bonspiel. The audit denies that millions in government funds were put through this stolen corporation but does admit that vehicles were registered to it. The Mohawk Coalition was also used to divert Mohawk community funds which were then placed in the third party management of PricewaterhouseCoopers [PWC].
Without the knowledge or consent of the community, PWC became the “payment center” for everything, based on James Gabriel’s approval. PWC obstructed justice by not opening up their books for the auditors to examine. They claim they are owed money. They will only answer questions if they’re paid.
According to the Supreme Court of Canada, the Canadian government has a fiduciary responsibility towards the Indigenous peoples. We can only wonder why the auditor didn’t get a court to subpoena PWC’s records. Is the problem that they weren’t paid, or are they worried about something? Maybe PWC owes the Mohawks some money! They will have to answer questions for free if a full and proper public inquiry is conducted. Are there enough honest people left in the Canadian government to see this happen?
When James Gabriel started hiring the goons in 2003, a public relations firm, Communications Strategies of Montreal, was hired to control the spin in the media, who never hesitate to demonize the Mohawks. In 1996 the Privy Council Office hired Richard Walsh, a known felon, to dig up dirt and set us up. According to Ontario Provincial Police documents, Walsh was wanted all over Ontario for credit card fraud. His criminal record seems to have gotten him the job.
Treasury Board Acts were violated to divert $58 million into the stolen corporation. Community programs were cut. The funds for the coup came through the Solicitor Generals office, Public Safety, Indian Affairs and Eric Maldoff of Heenan Blaikie for the Privy Council Office. Maldoff was paid millions for his plotting. Meanwhile in Kanehsatake health and education benefits were cut. Since all the conniving was being done in secret, this was another sign that something big was going wrong for us.
Good policing is neutral. Everybody is equal before the law. This is why Kanehsatake had an independent Police Commission.
The Canadian government agencies set James Gabriel up like a third world dictator. They secretly got him to sign a Tripartite Policing Agreement on behalf of the MCK. He had no authority to usurp the legal mandate of the community’s Police Commission. He did not even have a quorum or consensus of the council.
James Gabriel’s police continued to receive millions for their illicit operations. There was no policing in Kanehsatake and still isn’t. They acted as his personal body guards, at a cost of over $6 million in two years. He walked around the Laval Hilton like a rock star with this entourage carrying weapons openly.
Eric Maldoff of Heenan Blaikie and his associates, Chantal Bernier of Emergency Preparedness and Walter Walling of Indian Affairs, among others, should be charged with meddling in the 2005 election. The election of 2005, that supposedly put things right, was rigged by adding hundreds of non-residents and non-natives to the voting list so they out-numbered the voters living in the community. $500,000 was spent to bring in the council that Indian Affairs wanted and needed to support their schemes.
Eric Maldoff was chief federal land claims negotiator. At the same time his law firm, Heenan Blaikie, handled 28 frivolous cases for James Gabriel, building files on his “enemies”. It was not revealed how much money was spent on the judges and lawyers who helped James Gabriel victimize the Mohawks. His side was funded and not the other side.
Guy Dufort of Heenan Blaikie has now replaced Eric Maldoff as chief federal negotiator. Talk about conflict of interest! Guy Dufort is also the lawyer for the Sulpicians who are the adversaries of the Mohawks in this claim to our land. It was recently announced that he is running for the federal election in Westmount this summer as a Conservative Party candidate. Is this another reason for this audit whitewash? Is the government trying to maintain “cabinet secrecy” should he get elected?
There never was any evidence of “organized crime” in Kanehsatake, as confirmed by SQ Director General, Norman Proulx. “The raid was illegal” and staged by Ottawa. The SQ and RCMP said there was no evidence to justify this operation. The plans were made in secret between MCK and the federal cabinet.
There were no complaints or allegations of misconduct against Tracy Cross, the duly appointed police chief. The principles of fundamental justice set out by the Supreme Court of Canada, state that an accused has a right to know the case against him and to give full answer and reply. Gabriel and his handlers ignored all this. They just sent in their mercenaries without warning to kick out Cross and the legitimate police force. There were no formal charges, no due process, nothing! Just raw third world thuggery!
We need to know which bureaucrats and which politicians were involved. Who were their partners in crime? Who made the plans? Who made the decisions? Who gave the order to attack the Mohawks? What happened to democratic due process?
Laws were being broken and lives could have been lost. We are not exaggerating. Not mentioned by the auditors was the “take out on sight” list carried in by the attacking force. Who compiled it? On what authority? This needs a legal audit. Why were the Kanehsatake people subjected to false charges and the expense of their legal defense? [Link].
MCK and Canadian government interference in policing is a breach of the Tripartite Agreement. A politician can’t tell a cop what to do. Cops are supposed to be lawful. James Gabriel swore in and deputized officers. He did not have authority to do this as Grand Chief. Many of the 67 mercenaries he swore in were not qualified as police officers, or even to handle firearms. Why were these guys given $4,000 “Accuracy International Sniper Rifles” designed to kill with precise accuracy? What has this got to do with democratic due process?
The Navigant report stated that decisions on policing were made among Indian Affairs, Eric Maldoff as chief federal negotiator and the Privy Council Office and possibly the Prime Minister’s Office. Strangely, Maldoff was “authorized to negotiate a policing agreement”. He is reported to have taken the view that “strong policing was critical for good governance and the negotiation process” [to go the right way]. Maldoff and Indian Affairs “were strong supporters of” James Gabriel. “They believed that he was a good negotiation partner”.
This presents a serious test for the integrity of Canada’s legal institutions. Here we have serious evidence of violations leading straight to the Prime Minister’s Office. We have evidence that armed force was used to override the community’s legitimate institutions. There needs to be a legal investigation conducted by a neutral third party that has no vested interest in the outcome. The corruption seems to go to the core of Canada’s ostensibly democratic institutions.
The roots to this corruption run very deep. The role of genealogist Joan Holmes needs to be investigated. Eric Maldoff brought her in to compile a fake history of the Mohawks of Kanehsatake in support of Canada’s claim to our land. Her research needs to be scrutinized by qualified historians. Her involvement in the 2005 election also needs to be investigated. We saw a surge in membership that made the vote go in a direction that appears to have been designated. No one ever saw the new “Indians”. They faxed in their votes. The voters’ list was kept secret. The Mohawks still don’t know who these hundreds of people were or how they managed to capture the election for whoever set them up. To maintain the integrity of the process, the list of voters’ names and addresses must be made public!
The Access to Information documents reveal that this scam surrounding Kanehsatake involved a lot of people [see list below]. Their actions need to be investigated and criminal charges need to be laid where appropriate. A public inquiry with subpoena powers is needed. The law breaking we have been experiencing has to stop.
The motivation for keeping James Gabriel in power at such exorbitant costs seems to have been to cover up a morass of federal government corruption. These are connected to three major issues: the push to open the dangerously polluting niobium mine; the attempt to grab 250 sq. mi. of Mohawk land that is subject to a land claims settlement; and the $58 million that was surreptitiously diverted through the dormant Mohawk Coalition corporation. We have seen government documents that prove the existence of these violations. The public has a right to know.
A public inquiry with a wide scope and terms of reference is demanded to go after all of them especially “cabinet secrecy”. Those found guilty of crimes against the people must be punished, even if they are former prime ministers. Nobody should be above the law.

Content is a tiny rural community north of Farm Road 2904 about ten miles east of Temple in far eastern Bell County. Czech settlers farmed in the region in the late 1800s. In 1894 families established a two-room school. Trustees included Otto Wilde, Tom Wiese, H. L. and Edwin Holtkamp, and Lester Hoelscher. Content School closed in 1954, when it consolidated with the Rosebud Independent School District. In the 1980s the school building was used as a residence. Though the community of Content was no longer shown on highway maps by the 1990s, the 1990 and 2000 censuses listed a population of twenty-five.

A young boy is in a critical condition in hospital in Brussels after he was left on a freezing balcony in just his pyjamas for 15 hours.
It is believed the six-year-old had been left there as punishment for helping himself to something to eat from the kitchen.
Prosecutors said the boy was found outside the flat in the Saint-Josse area of the city where he had been stood from 5am until 8pm on Boxing Day.Boris refuses to apologise for secret text to James Dyson promising to 'fix' tax
Emergency services found the little boy ‘unconscious and suffering from hypothermia and malnutrition’, the Brussels prosecutors office said in a statement, adding that he was ‘still in a very critical condition’.
His twin sister was also taken to hospital suffering from mistreatment and malnutrition.
The children’s mother, 31, and their 21-year-old stepfather have been arrested on suspicion of ‘torture of a minor by someone in a position of authority’, the Brussels prosecutors office said.
‘The step-father has confessed without realising the seriousness of the facts, while the mother is still in denial,’ the prosecutor’s office said.
The woman is a French national while the step-father is Belgian, Het Laatste Nieuws reported.
Neither child was registered in Belgium, making it more difficult for authorities to monitor their welfare, local mayor Emir Kir told RTL-TVI television.

November 3, 2021 | Reliance SCADA
In 2020–2021, the Wienerberger company decided to completely change the control and power-distribution system at their production facility in the Czech town of Holice. The system is used to convey materials for the manufacture of Porotherm fired bricks.
This is done in the first section of the production facility (the so-called preparation plant) where feeders are used to feed brick-making materials to the next brick-making process.
The actual preparation of the resulting mixture is carried out – according to a preset recipe – by the controlled feeding of raw constituents while being moved along the conveyor. The coarse mixture prepared in this way travels through grinders to the storage hall and then, as a fine mixture, to other parts of the production facility.
Among other things, the control system consists of the Reliance SCADA/HMI system and a Siemens SIMATIC PLC. This controller is used, for example, for controlling the AC drives of the conveyor system's motor section, handling the components that provide safe operation, monitoring the status of each device, and communicating with a follow-up system.
The new control system allows operators to use its two touch workstations that are intended to visualize the current state of the entire technological system and both summary and historical data. After successfully logging on to the stations, the operating personnel (based on the level of authorization) can either switch the entire system to the automatic mode or control its parts manually.
Workstation 1 is permanently located in the preparation plant's substation. In addition to monitoring and control, it provides remote access to monitor the conveyor system via the intranet.
Workstation 2 is a durable tablet-type mobile device that allows, thanks to Wi-Fi signal coverage, comprehensively monitoring and controlling the technological processes. This solution enables a particular device to be handled either in the place of its location or in a wheel loader when adding materials to the feeders. A dialog box (intended to be used on a tablet) with larger buttons for controlling the processes by entering analog values was created so that this data can be conveniently entered by the loader driver/operator.
The Wi-Fi network (for connecting the tablet to the PLC technology network) is composed of four Ubiquiti UniFi APs so that it covers the area along the conveyor belt where operators move.

Heart Songs, Light languages, Sound Codes, Activation, Crystal Singing Bowls & other Musical Instruments
‘By coincidence’ , my friends and I sat on the stairs to rest, just outside the San Francisco Church at La Paz, Bolivia. A group of performers all dressed up in their traditional costumes, set up their PA system in front of us and started performing. This was one of the song they played. Beautiful and heart warming song touching people’s hearts. Enjoy.
Time flies. It took me more than one year to get on my butt to put up these incredible photos that I took along the journey from the Sacred Valley of the Inkas, Pisac, Cusco, Peru, to La Paz, Bolivia. I flew on 9/9/2015 from Singapore and got back back on 10/10/2015. An amazing journey that has widened my horizon and awakened my soul deep within. I was blessed and supported in all means to complete this journey. I share with all. Munay.

At an October 1, 2021 in-person conference (Fordham’s 48th Annual Conference on International Antitrust Law and Policy) Acting Assistant Attorney General Richard A. Powers of the Antitrust Division spoke about the history of and Antitrust Division’s commitment to enforcing the antitrust laws, including criminal enforcement, in labor markets: “If it was important for enforcers to protect competition in labor markets decades ago — and I believe it was — it is essential now.”
I suggest reading the speech in its entirety (here) but I’ll quote a few of the remarks:
- “Between 2010 and 2012, the Division filed civil enforcement actions against Adobe, Apple, eBay, Google, Intel, Intuit, Lucasfilm, and Pixar for entering into unlawful agreements not to compete for each other’s workers through various means. These enforcement actions were important for a few reasons. First, they made clear that companies that do not compete to make or sell the same products or services nonetheless compete vigorously in labor markets. That is why they have incentives to collude in a labor market in the first instance. Second, the investigation reaffirmed that agreements to allocate labor markets are no different than agreements to allocate markets by territory or customer. [Well, they were treated a little differently as these likely would have been criminal cases given the explicit evidence of agreement but civil cases were brought first as a sort of “warning shot.].
- Beginning in October 2016, the Division made a series of public statements that, going forward, it intends to criminally prosecute naked labor market allocation and wage-fixing conspiracies.
- Since that time, labor market investigations have comprised a growing portion of our docket. Thus far, we have charged four criminal cases for alleged collusion in labor markets.
- At bottom, the Division is committed to prosecuting naked conspiracies in labor markets because they rob workers of competitive wages, benefits, and other terms of employment. While this work is principally criminal enforcement, we are not blind to the social impact of this work. Free market competition for workers can mean the difference between saving for a home, sending kids to college, and leaving a toxic workplace, or not. Work is also fundamental to our dignity. As enforcers, we know firsthand what it means to ascribe dignity and values to work.
- Importantly, criminal prosecution of labor market conspiracies is the tip of the spear; the Division’s focus on labor markets extends beyond its cartel program. The Division is also committed to using its civil authority to detect, investigate, and challenge anticompetitive non-compete agreements, mergers that create or enhance monopsony power in labor markets, the unilateral exercise of monopsony power, and information sharing by employers.
- While competition policy is not conducive to a one-size-fits-all approach, I note that many international enforcers have used their enforcement authority to root out labor-market conspiracies with admirable results….”
There is much more in Mr. Powers’ remarks including a discussion of continued cooperation among international enforcers. There are also footnotes with citations to many of the cases/facts mentioned in the speech.
If there was ever a “hot topic” in antitrust compliance counseling it would be to advise clients that not just the DOJ, but the FTC, State AG’s and international enforcers are focusing on agreements between competitors to reduce or eliminate competition for an input commonly known as employees. It is key to understand, that like any other cartel, buyer or seller, agreements to reduce competition can be prosecuted even if they don’t eliminate all competition or are unsuccessful. While a bit simplified: It is just as unlawful to fix the price at which you pay employees as it is to fix the price of the widgets those employees make.
Thanks for reading.

Audi e-tron quattro concept (2015)
Electric driving at Audi is a pleasure, not a compromise. The brand is demonstrating this with the Audi e-tron quattro concept at the International Motor Show (IAA) 2015 in Frankfurt. The sporty SUV provides an outlook on the brand’s first large-series electric car.


In 2020, 58-year-old Lake Wales resident Brenda Brogdon was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her doctors removed both her breasts, potentially saving her life.
Months later, Brogdon opted to get implants. But the recovery process wasn’t complete until tattoo artist Stacie Becker crafted realistic-looking areolas onto her restored breasts, transforming her implants from “a piece of skin” into something that finally helped her move beyond breast cancer.
“I was pretty depressed, I’m not going to lie, and it made a big difference,” Brogdon said. “A lot of times people just think, ‘Well, they’re just breasts. You don’t need them’ ... I was the same way. I figured, ‘Yeah, just take it off, what difference does it make?’ Until they actually did it.”
Becker has specialized in medical tattooing since 2018. It extends beyond nipple recreation to include covering scars, simulating hair on people who are balding, or evening skin pigmentation for people with vitiligo, which occurs when some patches of skin lose their pigment. For breast cancer survivors, Becker offers a potentially cheaper, easier alternative to nipple reconstruction surgery, which is when a surgeon rebuilds nipples, typically using skin or a skin graft. She provides this service at a studio in Longwood, called Empower Tattoo.
“For a patient ... who’s just plain tired of being cut open and healing, just kind of wanting to move through this, this is such an excellent option,” Becker said.
Often, medical professionals such as physicians or nurses apply nipple tattoos. Becker argues that professional artists may be a better fit because they have more training, and breast cancer non-profits such as Breastcancer.org agree.
But Becker’s prices start at $400, and she said when she tried to get credentials to be in-network with health insurance companies, she was rejected.
Brogdon’s insurance company initially told her it wouldn’t cover her nipple and areola tattoos, but agreed after she provided a five-digit code that insurance companies use to label medical procedures such as this one. Then she got them done at Becker’s tattoo shop and asked for reimbursement. She was denied.
“I’m like, ‘why did you deny this?’ They said, ‘Well, you went out of network and you don’t have any out-of-network coverage.’ I’m like, where was I supposed to go? ... There’s no one in-network,” Brogdon said.
Eventually, Brogdon’s health insurance did agree to reimburse her tattoos. After all, neither Becker, Brogdon, nor Brogdon’s plastic surgeon knew of anyone within a couple of hundred miles that offered this service.
Further, Becker argues that coverage is legally required according to the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998.
Many types of private insurance plans that cover mastectomies are required to cover “all stages of reconstruction” under the act. However, an October 2020 letter signed by a bipartisan group of U.S. representatives states that the act has “significant grey areas in how to interpret the law especially related to nipple-areolar tattooing,” according to the website of one of the people who signed, Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md.
The letter was supported by former Rep. Alcee Hastings, D-Fla., who died in April, and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., along with several other Florida representatives. In January 2021, Hastings introduced H.R. 469, the Comprehensive Breast Reconstruction Act of 2021, which aims to legally require Medicare and Medicaid to cover nipple and areola tattoos after a mastectomy. This act had bipartisan support, but the last action taken was when it was referred to the Subcommittee on Health in February, according to the official website of Congress.
Meanwhile, Becker is raising awareness about medical tattooing so her patients won’t need to.
“Many of my clients, the last thing they want to do is have to put up another fight,” Becker said. “They’re fighting for their lives, they’re fighting their insurance companies.”
As a painting major and psychology minor at the University of Central Florida, she has teamed up with Clinical Psychology professor Jeffrey Cassisi, who directs UCF’s health psychology lab. They published a study last month in Aesthetic Surgery Journal Open Forum that reviews 18 studies of patient satisfaction with their medical tattoos, the majority of which were applied by physicians, nurses, or surgeons.
Their analysis found that on average, about 92% of patients were satisfied. Few patients in the studies they analyzed reported complications, which include but are not limited to swelling, infection, rash, or fading.
They also have an article set to publish in November in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery that recommends guidelines for establishing a dedicated medical tattoo profession and suggests requirements such as standardized training and a code of ethics.
Nipple restoration isn’t for everyone, though. Some of Becker’s clients feel other designs give them more meaningful closure. One such client is Nicole Schmatolla, a 56-year-old from Titusville.
“Anatomically, it looked so different from me naturally that it seemed to accentuate — not due to her craft but in my mind — that I was no longer whole,” Schmatolla said. “So then I opted for cherry blossoms and flowers.”
Leesburg resident Lisa Ritchey, 65, comes from a family of breast cancer survivors and decided she didn’t want implants after her mastectomy. She also didn’t want to stare down her two red scars every day, so she covered them up with a personally meaningful tattoo that features flowers, a hummingbird, and a cannon.
“Since getting the tattoo, I feel so much better about myself,” she said. “I see myself naked ... and it wasn’t pretty before, all I saw was a great big scar. And now, now I smile, and so does my husband.”
Ritchey said she didn’t even think about asking her insurance company to cover part of the scar-concealing tattoo — she was sure they’d say no.
In the future, Becker says she’d love to push insurance companies to allow the same budget given to nipple tattoos to be applied to these nontraditional designs.
“Tattooing ... it still has this stigma,” Becker said. “But it’s not only used for fun or decoration ... it’s also used for restorative purposes. This can psychologically help people get past some things that they might not have been able to get past otherwise.”

Erdogan says extending state of emergency would be good for Turkey
Extending a state of emergency for another three months would be beneficial for Turkey as it requires more time to eradicate the threat from terrorist groups after a failed coup attempt in July, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday.
Speaking a day after Turkey's National Security Council recommended the extension of the emergency rule, Erdogan said the measure sped up Ankara's fight against terrorism and he believed Turks would support it.
"The government will make the necessary assessment and take the necessary steps (on this)," Erdogan said in a speech to a group of... read more

University professor, cancer researcher & molecular biologist
LECTURE: Cannabinoids as anticancer agents.
A large body of evidence shows that cannabinoids, in addition to their well-known palliative effectson some cancer-associated symptoms, can reduce tumour growth in animal models of cancer and specifically of gliomas. The mechanism of cannabinoid anticancer action relies, at least largely, on the ability of these agents to stimulate autophagy-mediated cancer cell death. Moreover, the combined administration of cannabinoids and temozolomide produces a strong anticancer effect. In this presentation, Dr. Velasco will discuss these issues and other possible future studies that may help to clarify the usefullnes of cannabinoids in cancer treatments.

Question of the Week
Do you support Cleethorpes Town?
|On the buses|
Free Coaches to County
By: Rob Sedgwick
TEN free coaches are being laid on by the Mariners for the short trip to Notts County on Easter Monday. The coaches will initially be given to season tickets holders, on a first come first served basis.
Town Chairman John Fenty paid for a similar number of coaches to go to Chester three weeks ago, and over 1000 Mariners made the journey across the Pennines to see Town pick up a point at the Deva stadium.
Grimsby's other away games are at Shrewsbury on Saturday and at relegation rivals Bournemouth on the penultimate game of the season.
With every game potentially critical it's likely that there will be some more incentives for the Town faithful to get to as many games as they can this season, both home and away.
This site is by the fans, for the fans, and we will consider articles on any subject relating to the Mariners whether it be related to current news, a nostalgic look back in the past, a story about a player, a game or games in the past, something about Blundell Park or football in general.

COCHISE COUNTY — Because of some glitches being reported in the state’s health department website by individuals signing up to get the Moderna vaccine under Phase 1A, Cochise County officials said Tuesday that details will be published to inform the public when and where the inoculations will be available for people under Phase 1B.
Additionally, Alicia Thompson, director of Cochise Health and Social Services, said the Arizona Department of Health Services patient portal is getting overwhelmed with people who are signing up so they can be notified once the vaccine is ready for those who fall under Phase 1B.
Thompson stressed that signing up on the state’s website is optional, not mandatory. She said there is no other portal or location where people who fall under Phase 1B can sign up, but she assured the public that the county will be advertising the availability of the Moderna vaccine for Phase 1B once that time arrives.
Thompson also said a new group has been added to the Phase 1B section to now include anyone over the age of 75. Phase B individuals also include law enforcement, firefighters, corrections officers, teachers and childcare staff, utility workers and health care workers not included in Phase 1A. It also includes high risk adults in congregate settings such as group homes and homeless shelters.
One of the issues being reported by Phase 1A individuals who have been signing up to get inoculated is that the state’s newly-created web page may not be showing all the locations where the vaccines are being administered. These locations are known as points of dispersal, or PODs.
Thompson said one of the members of her staff who lives in Sierra Vista tested the web page to determine where a POD was available in the city. Thompson said the closest POD that came up was in Douglas. There are several PODs in the Sierra Vista area.
“That can be very confusing to people, especially those in our older population,” Thompson said.
Thompson assured that all individuals under the Phase 1A group are being taken care of and that the network of communication is clear and strong.
“All this is evolving,” Thompson said. “There is no precedent for this and we are all learning in present time. We are trying to put out as much information as possible, as quickly as possible.”
She said that Chiricahua Community Health Centers, for example, will be among those partners in Cochise County that will have several PODs open once the Moderna vaccine is available for the Phase 1B group. The county’s health department will be posting those POD locations and the link to their websites once that happens, Thompson said.

Kentucky Veterans Turn to Dancing to Ease PTSD Symptoms
Roosevelt Smith is one of a handful of Louisville, Kentucky veterans benefitting from barn dancing, which he says helps ease the mental health issues from which he's suffered since the Gulf War
"It's a way of calming yourself, an outlet so to speak," Smith told Fox News. "We have a lot of things that we do as far as prescription drugs, but this right here is the best prescription I've had, with no side effects."
Smith and a few dozen other veterans diagnosed with post-tramautic stress disorder and other ailments attend a weekly group dancing class at an AmVets post in Louisville, Kentucky. Together, men and women of all ages join hands and move through barn-style dances. Lights stay dimmed, the music stays upbeat, and jarring percussion is avoided.
Fox reports that the idea for dance therapy grew out of a 2011 conversation between Deborah Denenfeld and a Fort Knox psychiatrist about a dancing program for active duty military. Denenfeld determined that barn-style dances were best for military members, and she eventually developed the "Dancing Well" program for veterans struggling with mental health issues in 2013.
"This traditional dance, you might think of it as barn dance that's been tested by hundreds of years of communities dancing it, is so simple and pure it's a natural for this population," explains Denenfeld.
Darlene Messler, an Army vet diagnosed with PTSD, came to watch the merriment even though she's on crutches. "It takes me back to my childhood, in grade school, doing square-dancing," she told Fox. "When I'm here, I don't have to worry about that. I just have fun, we're all just here as a family and just having fun."

Growing cool weather peas in this area is almost impossible but the Lincoln Peas do better than most. The vines are looking bad. I can see some powdery mildew starting. I could spray it with a mix of baking soda, dormant oil spray and Castille soap but the vines are at the end of their life with the heat so I’ll probably pick them Wednesday and again on Saturday and then pull the vines and dispose of them.
We pick these peas when they’re tiny and eat them raw, or put them in salads or steam them or stir fry them. They’re quite good just about any way you can think of to cook them. The mature pods are picked and shelled. I’ll either eat the peas raw in a salad, use them in fried rice or cook them with a little water, butter and seasonings. We love them.
Those little peas are so packed in the shells. Year after year, for many, many years, I’m amazed that planting one little seed will produce a plant with hundreds of pea pods that are packed with more little seeds. Of course, it’s that way with pretty much everything. The garden is such an awesome place to be! I find myself out there talking to the plants and thanking them for doing so well, but that’s probably not something I should admit to doing, right?
I’m not crazy about these peas canned or frozen but I think I’m going to can these this year. I’m about halfway done shelling what I picked today. A nap may have cut into my productivity this afternoon but that’s allowed on a hot Sunday afternoon!


The governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El-Rufai, has responded to a query issued to him, Friday, by a faction of the All Progressive Congress in the state, describing it as a “sham and laughable”.
The Shuaibu Inuwa Wada-led Kaduna state factional APC, had issued a query to the governor and slammed an 18-month suspension on his political adviser, Uba Sani.
Others it ‘sanctioned’ were the state commissioner for finance, Suleiman Kwari, and Yahaya Pate, the acting state secretary of the party, for activities it described as “inimical to the interest of the chapter.”
The factional chairman, at a press conference in Kaduna on Thursday, said the suspension of the trio of Mr. Sani, Mr. Pate and Mr. Kwari is “with effect from 12th February, 2018.”
However, the governor said he will not be swayed by ”drowning antics”, adding that no one will heed the ”attention-seeking gambits of desperate politicians who have steadily been demystified.”
The faction tagged, ‘APC Aspirant Forum’ on Thursday urged the governor to respond to the query within 48 hours.
The Kaduna APC is currently divided into three factions, after the senator representing Kaduna North, Suleiman Hunkuyi, announced at a function last week that he was no more, ”in the same camp with the governor.”
There is the ‘APC Akida’, chaired by Tom Mataimaki Mai-Yashi to which a senator, Shehu Sani, belongs to, the ‘APC Restoration’ headed by Tijjani Ramalan and now the APC Aspirant Forum, headed by Mr. Hunkuyi.

Eating Chocolates Will Cure Diabetes Type 2
Published : May 18, 2016 07:12 am
You might be wondering how come eating chocolate will cure diabetes type -2. yes what you have heared is absolutely right..!! Eating chocolate will cure diabetes type 2. There's been a research going on in Europe in Laxenburg institute for health and by university of warvic South Australia and they have conducted research on a total of 1,153 volunteers and they have conducted this research for the age group from 18 years to 69 years old and what they have observed is that people who are having 100 grams of chocolate a day are having very less chances of affecting with type 2 diabetes and more over they have noticed that people who had 100 grams of chocolate looked very young and more active.
you might be wondering how come people eating chocolate will not be effected by diabetes and in fact they are very much prone to diabetes if they have chocolate but there is a small difference between the type of chocolate we eat i.e., there are generally two types of chocolate one is normal chocolate and another is dark chocolate and people who had 100 grams of dark chocolate are very less prone to diabetes because people who had dark chocolate the ingredients In dark chocolate named "COCO" will not allow the pancreas to generate insulin and because of this diabetes will be in control but one should not take this as an advantage and start eating chocolate because scientists say that the quantity of chocolate per day should not exceed 100 grams.
