James R. Ball, III, recently joined the Department of Performance Studies at Texas A&M University. Previously he has taught courses on performance and politics, performance and technology, and the works of William Shakespeare at the University of Maryland, College Park, and NYU. He received his PhD in Performance Studies from NYU in 2012. Dr. Ball studies the politics of performance and the performance of politics, analyzing both the theatrical structures that underwrite public political events and aesthetic performances that seek to intervene in political processes. His book manuscript, Theatre of State: Theatricality and Spectatorship in International Institutions, considers the historical relationship between theatre and the United Nations and International Criminal Court, proposing that diplomatic and theatrical performance are mutually constitutive phenomena in a cohesive field of practices. Dr. Ball’s work emphasizes the forms of theatricality that situate individuals as engaged spectators to global politics.

Having just completed a Masters in Performance Studies at NYU, Colleen Daly is originally from Sperryville, Virginia – an Appalachian town with zero stoplights and about 300 people. As the second oldest of twelve children, she found herself addressing every challenge with creativity as her title of “eldest daughter” led her through the roles of guardian, cook, maid, chauffer, entertainer, and advisor. She can change a diaper with one hand, cook rice and soup in over a dozen ways, wash nearly everything with shampoo, and be infinitely patient. Her academic and artistic endeavors articulate an interest in the intangibility and fractured incarnations of home and homemaking. She’s most curious about process and collaboration and what those things evoke or build in the realm of the everyday. Currently exploring with various musical instruments, artistic materials, and written forms, she’s working things out.

Anna Griffith understands the world through movement. She is a scholar-practitioner who writes about movement practices in relation to cultural studies, racialization and whiteness and performance theory. Anna has a background in dance, martial arts, yoga and Pilates, and as a personal trainer she draws on these practices to help people experience their bodies differently. After a Bachelor in Dance and an MA in Theatre Studies Anna recently completed a PhD in Performance and Theatre Studies from York University. Her doctoral work “Excursions Into Otherness: Performative Cosmopolitanism and Movement Culture” considers Yoga, Muay Thai and Capoeira as globalized, commoditized movement practices that reflect complex postcolonial politics and racially coded social structures. This paper is a snapshot of some of the entangled issues she works and lives through in Toronto, Canada.
Leon Hilton is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Performance Studies at NYU, where his work focuses on the intersections of disability studies, performance theory, and queer studies.

Born and raised in Montreal, Didier Morelli is presently a PhD student in Performance Studies at Northwestern University, in Evanston, Illinois. As an interdisciplinary artist, Morelli combines practice and research in both his academic and performative explorations. His live art practice includes endurance-based durational actions and contextually specific relational interactions. His studio-based work, which includes drawing, collage, photography and video, has been shown in solo exhibitions (notably at the Katherine Mulherin Gallery in Toronto) as well as in group exhibitions (the Audain Gallery in Vancouver and at the Civic Space in Windsor). He has performed at the Scotiabank Nuit Blanche (Toronto, 2012) and 7a*11d International Festival of Performance Art (Toronto, 2014). Morelli has presented papers at conferences, most notably at Running With Concepts, Blackwood Gallery at the University of Toronto, at the Theatre at UBC Graduate Symposium in Vancouver, and at PSi #19: Stanford at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California.
Growing up in Montreal, François Morelli lived in a French neighborhood, was sent to English schools, and ate Italian food. He played sports, made scarp-books and learned to draw from popular TV shows and coloring books. He completed a BFA at Concordia University in 1975 while developing conceptual strategies that included feeding pigeons, talking with the trees on his street and walking with canvases wrapped around his feet. Between 1975 and 1981, he worked as cartographer, designer and cook. He lived in the New York area from 1981 to 1991, and received an MFA from Rutgers University in 1983. He has taught since 1980 and has exhibited his work since 1976. Professor at Concordia University since 1996, he joined the Joyce Yahouda Gallery in Montreal in 2006. He pursues a trans-disciplinary practice that questions the status of an artwork through its process and its reception. He is interested in notions of passage, circulation and transformation. His practice as an artist/educator often echoes a past action or event while examining (not only in space but also in time) relationships between the artist and society, between individuals themselves or between an individual and an artwork.
Alexander Munro graduated with a BA from Roanoke College majoring in International Relations and minoring in Theatre.

As a performer, she has worked with, amongst others, Marina Abramović, Jérôme Bel, Maria Hassabi, and The Trisha Brown Dance Company.
Victoria Stanton is an interdisciplinary artist working with live action, human interaction, video, film, photo, drawing, and writing. Continually exploring within such diverse media, while the outward results of her practice manifest in a multiplicity of forms, performance is the invariable core of her research. Her time-based work includes performance for stage, performance for the camera, actions in public spaces, and one-on-one encounters in intimate contexts. Investing a performative presence and consciousness within multiple spaces / times, she continuously underscores the complex aspects of “transaction” and the possibility for transformation. As an artist-researcher, she is equally interested in the phenomenon of the “in-between” – that invisible, liminal space between herself and the audience (whether a group or just one person) or between herself and the object / action / location – whether appearing “on stage” (in a black box, or white cube) or “out in the world” (in public sites and “non-art” contexts). Considered a pioneer of transactional practices in Quebec, Stanton has presented exhibitions, performances, interventions, and films/videos in Canada, the U.S., Europe, the U.K., Australia, Japan and Mexico. http://bankofvictoria.com

Étienne Tremblay-Tardif (b. 1984, Isle-aux-Coudres) lives and works in Montreal. He completed a BA degree in Film Studies/Art History at Université de Montréal (2006), as well as BFA (2009) and MFA (2013) degrees in Studio Arts at Concordia University. His university studies were bracketed by two important student movements (2005 and 2012 strikes). Tremblay-Tardif develops an interest for the interaction/negociation of subjectivities within contexts that present fragmentary or obfuscated textures and contextures. Considering these non-places as historical sites, he articulates the tensions and resistances that mark these positions. His open-ended research projects consider speculations and models as well as documentary strategies : they are signage structures and discursive platforms which unfold in time more than they seek closure. In his installations, prints, multiples, texts, videos and actions/interventions he provides provisional, temporary and ad hoc propositions and signals precise sociopolitical configurations. Critical notions of indexation, abstraction, performativity, iconoclasm and commemoration frame this work on ; the sociopolitical history of Quebec; architecture as an infrastructure for ideology; print in the information field and in material culture. Past projects include Signage Matrix for Turcot Interchange Refection (Biennale de Montréal, Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, 2014), Société-écran/out of business (Occurrence, 2014), Fonction publique (AXENÉO7, 2013), Bookworms (Arprim, 2012) and Hôpital-Maxime-le-Jaune (Symposium international d’art contemporain de Baie-Saint-Paul, 2012).
Jamara M. Wakefield is a poet, performer and scholar. As a writer and performer, her theatre and performance poetry lives at the intersections of history and imaginative thinking. She believes theatre is a space to converse with ghosts and reconcile the histories of society we are most afraid to engage in dialogue. Spoken word poetry is her personal and creative resistance strategy. It is the space where she proclaims, love and positive self esteem as radical concepts. Her research interests include Black Radical Traditions, Feminist Theory, Hauntology and Folklore. In addition to solo theater and performance poetry, her practice interests include experimental theater, story telling & improvisation. She studied creative writing at The New School for Public Engagement as a Riggio Writing & Democracy Scholar. She studied Performance Studies at the NYU’s Tisch School of Performing Arts.
Susanna Weygandt received her BA from Bryn Mawr College, MA from Middlebury College, and studied theater directing at the Russian Academy of Theater Arts (G.I.T.I.S.) in Moscow. In June 2015 she received her Ph.D. in the Slavic Department at Princeton University. Her dissertation entitled, “Embodiment in Post-Somatic, Postdramatic Russian New Drama” examines the ways post-Soviet theater reacts to the Russian theatrical past, departing from it but not erasing it in its re-systemization in the contemporary, post-dramatic landscape. She is the author of “The Object as Prosthesis and Protagonist in Russian New Drama” forthcoming in the book Russian Performances (Routledge Press). She has ventured into post-Soviet theater and drama, thanks to support from Fulbright, to document a consensus about Anatoly Vasiliev’s voice technique (an article appearing in Brown Slavic Contributions, Vol. XIV, 2013). Her article on movement theater, “The Andrei Droznin Method of Plastika Training” appears in the Russian journal Theater. Visual Art. Film. Music. (1, 2011). Hands-on training and interviews with theater artists in Russia have helped her grasp the crux of their performance methods. She translated one of the most popular New Drama plays Illusions (2011) by Ivan Vyrypaev and directed it as a play-reading at Princeton University in 2012. She also organized a critical public engagement with Ivan Vyrypaev at Baryshnikov Arts Center for the premiere of Illusions in New York in 2014.

Bob Dylan – Early Morning Rain (Self Portrait (1970))
“Early Morning Rain”
[Written by Gordon Lightfoot]
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I’m a long way from home and I miss my loved one so
In the early morning rain with nowhere to go.
Cut on runway number nine, big 707 set to go
I’m stuck here on the ground, where the cold winds blow
The liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
There she goes, my friend, she’s rolling down at last.
Hear the mighty engines roar, see the silver bird on high
She’s away and westward bound, far above the clouds she’ll fly
Where the morning rain don’t fall and the sun always shines
She’ll be flying over my home in about three hours time.
This old airport’s got me down, it’s no earthly good to me
Because I’m stuck here on the ground, cold and drunks as I might be
You can’t hop a jet plane like you can a freight train
So I’d best be on my way in the early morning rain.
It occurs to me, listening to this track, that I’d never really gotten into the whole late 60’s-early 70’s singer-songwriter deal. Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor, John Denver – you got a couple good songs in there, but it was just never my cup of tea. And hearing Dylan’s runthrough of “Early Morning Rain” doesn’t exactly change my mind. The RS review has particularly harsh words for this particular track; references are made to the “mawkish” quality of the actual song, the “stiff-formed-vowel” vocal, and an extremely uninteresting and generic backing track. And I’m absolutely with them – calling this song “cookie-cutter” might be an insult to cookie cutters. Perhaps if the song wasn’t so bleh (to quote Patton Oswalt, “feelin’ kinda sorta”) to begin with, some of the lesser qualities of the track could be overlooked. Sadly, that’s not the case.

UPDATE (7:35pm, 19 Jan): We made a follow-up call to our tipster who stated that the issues have been solved. At the same time, it seems that Celcom has also removed the pre-recorded message from its customer service hotline which we deemed as an indication that the telco has managed to rectify the issues.
ORIGINAL STORY (6:17pm, 18 Jan):
It has come to our attention that certain Celcom customers might be facing difficulties in terms of calls and SMS at the moment. Interestingly, the calls and SMS issues that these customers are experiencing are rather different from usual.
According to our tipster who notified us of the issue yesterday, he is not able to receive calls when he is connected to the telco’s 4G network and have to switch to 3G in order to fix the issue. On another hand, he will only able to receive SMS when he is on 4G network but not on 3G. A number of Lowyat.NET Forum members have also reported the same issues as well.
Soon after we received the alert, we contacted Celcom’s customer service in order to find out if there is any network outage at the time. However, we were told that officially, the telco’s network is working normally at that time. The situation has changed today though as Celcom has now included this pre-recorded message for customers that called its customers service hotline:
“You may experience difficulties in making or receiving calls at some areas in Semenanjung Malaysia for a short while. We apologize for the inconvenience caused.”
Early information that we received from Celcom is that this particular issue is rather isolated since it happened to a small group of customers. Nevertheless, the telco is working to rectify it as soon as possible.

All you need are your own kitchen tools, novice skills and a few pantry staples. What comes out in less than an hour is a nearly gourmet meal to enjoy however you choose: Dress up for friends, or dine in your pajamas.

Virtually since the day the Global War on Terror (GWOT) began, it has been widely understood to be an information war. But there has been too little analysis of what exactly that means, how precisely an information war (fought during an information age) might differ from other, earlier forms of war, and in particular what role technology might play in shaping such a war. There is, of course, a vast literature on the potential for new technologies to create a Revolution in Military Affairs or networked warfare, but that discusses the impact of military technology on the way the force can be used in military operations. The question here is what the impact of new communication and information technologies in the hands of civilian forces—some of whom are combatants—will be on the environment in which the force will be used. This monograph argues that the impact of these new technologies has been, and will be, enormous; certainly great enough that the way they are shaping the battlefield needs to be understood.
The argument first examines the nature of this new information environment as it pertains to fighting war, then considers the power of the visual image generally, and in the context of the Iraqi innovation in terms of the way propaganda is structured and utilized.
Next evaluated is the role and importance of media representations of dead bodies, the role they play in both propaganda and news coverage, in particular distinctions made by news outlets between bodies shown covered and bodies shown exposed. Other types of videos—in particular those having to do with hostage situations—are then examined, and finally the author draws conclusions and offers recommendations for dealing more effectively and proactively with enemy propaganda visuals.
Waging war against terrorists (or insurgents using a terrorist playbook) is a qualitatively different enterprise from earlier, or different, wars. By definition, terrorists are too weak to fight conventional battles. The question is what kind of battle, then, are they fighting? They fight a battle to shape the perceptions and attitudes of the public—a battle over the public’s very will to continue fighting, whether that is the indigenous public insurgents seek to intimidate or the domestic American public they seek to influence so as to force counterinsurgents to withdraw from the battlefield prematurely. And in the modern world, this will, of necessity, be a battle to shape media coverage. Terrorist attacks today ought to be understood as consciously crafted media events, and while that has arguably always been the case to some degree, today that is more true than ever before in two senses. First, the terrorist attack is itself very often designed and intended for the cameras. Terrorist attacks are for an audience or else they have no meaning. Their true target, in other words, is not actually that which is blown up or destroyed—that item, or those people—for that is merely a stage prop. What is really being targeted is those who are watching at home. The goal after all, is to have a psychological effect of some sort (to terrorize) and it is not possible to have such an effect on those who are already dead.
It is for that reason that the military force fighting today against a terrorist organization in defense of a democratic state is really fighting a two-front war. There is on the one hand the ground war, meaning the war that has to actually be won on the ground, the state of play on the ground as it exists in reality. But there is also the air war, meaning the war as it exists on the nation’s front pages and television screens. For a democracy, winning one and not the other will always mean losing, and losing in a very real sense, because the loss of public support means that the war will come to an end, period.
This means that the terrorist attack is a media event in the sense that it is designed to attract the attention of the media, to gain the media’s attention, the same way that a political campaign event is a media event, designed to attract the media’s attention and thus garner coverage. As in the case of the presidential campaign, when we discuss media attention we are really first and foremost talking about television. When we are talking about gaining television’s attention, we are really talking about gaining the attention of the cameras—and the way to do that, of course, is to provide good visuals, however those are defined in a particular context.

Posted December. 20, 2005 08:23,
The Korea Employers Federation surveyed 211 CEOs of companies with more than 300 employees and found that 91.2 percent think the governments economic policies are below average. According to the survey, 52.1 percent said they were unsatisfactory, 39.1 percent answered average, and only 8.8 percent replied satisfactory about the government policies.
The result is a stark contrast to the governments own assessment of its policies.
The CEOs regarded real estate and labor policies as failure. The Roh administration boasts that its real estate measures cooled speculation and stabilized the market, but that measure got the worst marks. Koreans wonder whether the administration likes the difference, considering it as a successful result of a strategy to differentiate the administration from the rich, or dismisses it as a survey outcome, saying corporate leaders tend to give low marks to the government.
Aside from the survey result, next year is critical. A survey on some 3,600 companies conducted by the Korea Development Bank showed a mere 0.1 percent increase in the amount of money they plan to invest in equipment. A slow increase in capital investment undermines the potential of economic growth. Manufacturing companies answered they will utilize 79.3 percent of capital investment from inside their own companies, which implies that many companies with plenty of money are reluctant to invest for fear of uncertainty in a business environment.
The survey revealed that the information and technology industry, and mid- and small-sized companies were not planning to invest in equipment. This worries many that the polarization between mid- and small-sized companies and large exporters will continue to grow.
The Roh administration came up with its own measures to deal with the growing polarization in Korea, but it turns a blind eye to more fundamental strategies and pushes for big government measures like collecting more taxes and spending more. The administration reveals the typical incompetence of the government.
The real economic growth rate for next year is predicted at 4.2 percent to 5.3 percent. Now, four years into governance, the administration, for the first time, aims at achieving economic growth commensurate with the potential growth rate, but considering its track record, that is not enough. It has said that it plans to make a business-friendly environment, yet little has changed. Political events like local government elections scheduled next May are to have a negative impact on the economy. The government should first and foremost ease the difficulties, including regulations, that companies face when they invest.

Jul 27, Fall-bearing types produce on first year’s canes and are thus pruned back after the late fall harvest when dormant. How Do You Prune Raspberry Bushes? Again, pruning techniques depend on variety. Red raspberries produce suckers at the base of previous season’s growth while black (and purple) form on new growth.
Red Raspberry Bush Pruning. Summer-bearing – Remove all weak. Prune all canes back to ground level in March or early April. While the plants won't produce a summer crop, the late summer/early fall crop should mature one to two weeks earlier. Also, total crop yield is typically larger utilizing the one-crop system versus the two-crop system.
Maintain the plants in a 1- to 2-foot-wide hedgerow. Nov 13, can you cut down raspberry bushes in the fall is important information accompanied by photo and HD pictures sourced from all websites in the world. Download this image for free in High-Definition resolution the choice"download button" below. If you do not find the exact resolution you are looking for, then go for a native or higher resolution.
May 06, Raspberries of both summer and fall bearing varieties should be pruned in the winter. This is because the berry canes are fully dormant during this time, so any pruning will stimulate growth, rather than damaging the current growth pattern.
Raspberries can be pruned any time between November and March%(64). Jan 31, Pruning Late Summer/ Fall Raspberries Raspberries that fruit in late summer/early fall on this season’s growth (primocanes) are best pruned in around February (late winter).
Pruning at this time will help to ensure that the plants have had time, over the dormant winter months, to store plenty of carbohydrates in their root shrubdrop.buzzted Reading Time: 9 mins. The best time for planting raspberries is from mid-November to mid-March. This will ensure a good crop of summer fruit.
If you trim your bushes regularly, they will continue to produce fruit throughout the summer and even into early autumn. Later in this article, I will explain exactly how to trim raspberry bushes. Prune off the top of the cane of a two-crop raspberry that has borne fruit; cut remove coconut tree stump, 22201 Arlington VA cane back to the lowest point on the cane that bore fruit (usually about 45 inches from the ground).
Leave the bottom of the cane to fruit the following spring or early summer.

We often hear of how inflammation is bad for our bodies and how we need to consider taking anti-inflammatory agents or include anti-inflammatory foods in our diets. But why is inflammation a problem? And can CBD be an answer to it? In this article, we will find out.
What is Inflammation?
First, we should discuss what inflammation does to the body. In general, inflammation is not always a bad thing. It actually helps your body to heal and fight infections in small doses. According to the Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG), inflammation is the result of your immune system fighting something that the body thinks might be harmful to you. Common symptoms of inflammation include swelling, redness, soreness, pain, or localized heat. Sometimes these symptoms do not occur, so you might not even notice when you have inflammation.
It is usually caused by some sort of bacteria or virus, or from an injury either from exercise, scratches and/or scrapes, or external objects such as a splinter getting stuck in your hand. Basically, it is your body’s natural way of defending itself against illness and injury. However, sometimes the body can actually have too much inflammation for too long – this is where the problem starts. The body can start to use inflammation to fight and damage its own healthy cells, destroying them and causing all sorts of health issues. Examples of this include auto-immune diseases or cancers. More specifically these are diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Lupus, Psoriasis, Celiac Disease, or Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). These are referred to as chronic inflammatory diseases and patients can suffer with them for their whole lives. Mostly, it is these chronic conditions that worry people and make them look for medications, supplements, or foods that are anti-inflammatory.
How Does Inflammation Work?
Inflammation releases certain mediators and hormones in the body to the area that it is fighting and trying to keep healthy. It causes the blood vessels in that area to widen – which allows more blood to rush to the site, leading to the redness and heat associated with inflammation. The blood helps carry the mediators, such as histamine and bradykinin, that help fight the harmful agents and heal the body. Sometimes these mediators can irritate the area and it can cause pain signals to be sent to the brain, which is why we feel pain with inflammation. These mediators also help make the vessels more permeable, meaning that things can go in and out the vessels easier, to allow more of these defense agents to help. They often bring fluid with them which is where the swelling comes from. Extra fluid can also help flush toxins out of your body (like when you have a runny nose).
Why Do We Want Anti-Inflammatory Agents?
As stated above, long-term inflammation can cause serious damage to organs and the body in general. It can contribute to auto-immune diseases, cancers, pain, heart disease, and even nervous system illnesses like Alzheimer’s Disease. This long-term inflammation can be caused by a variety of reasons such as environmental factors, stress, not exercising, or even certain foods in our diet. Dr. Andrew Weil states that anti-inflammatory foods include broccoli, cauliflower, kale, spinach, squash, berries, peaches, oranges, chickpeas, and much more. It can even include spices such as turmeric and ginger. Anti-inflammatory foods and supplements may help lower our risk of getting these diseases. It also helps us maintain a healthier diet if we choose to include more anti-inflammatory foods to our daily meals.
Is CBD Anti-Inflammatory?
The short answer is – we think so. It has been shown back in the 90’s that CBD has more antioxidant activity than traditional antioxidants like vitamin C and vitamin E. Antioxidants help fight inflammation by decreasing the number of free radicals in the body that can cause damage. CBD was also shown to reduce TNFα in mice. TNFα is a protein that stimulates inflammation in the body. It is often used as a marker to measure for inflammation in the body. Therefore, if it is decreased, so is inflammation.
Typically, when thinking of anti-inflammatory agents we think of the drug class called NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). Examples of these drugs include ibuprofen (Advil), naproxen (Aleve), celecoxib (Celebrex), and others. They work by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes in our body to help relieve pain and inflammation. However, they have their fair share of side effects. For example, agents that inhibit COX-1 (one type of COX enzyme) can possibly cause ulcers in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and even GI bleeding with prolonged use.
This is why they came up with drugs like celecoxib which inhibit more COX-2 (another type of COX enzymes) than COX-1. Although this causes less GI side effects, it can cause more heart-related side effects such as having heart attacks and strokes. So even though NSAIDs are great for inflammation – the long-term side effects are not favorable.
It turns out that CBD does not work the same way these drugs do at all. CBD does not inhibit either COX enzyme at pharmacologically appropriate doses. This means CBD may produce anti-inflammatory effects without causing the harmful side effects associated with NSAIDs.
Although the mechanism behind the anti-inflammatory effects is still being researched, one theory is that CBD exerts its effects through the A2A receptor. A2A is an adenosine receptor in the body and adenosine is an agent that already exists in our body and promotes anti-inflammatory actions. CBD is thought to inhibit a transporter of adenosine which in turn promotes the signaling of the A2A receptor. This simply means it increases the effects of adenosine in the body, which increases anti-inflammation. Another study in mice suggests that the anti-inflammation and pain relief mechanism for CBD could be through glycine receptors. Glycine receptors are important for pain sensation in the spine and usually relates to pain and inflammation that deals with your nerves. This is the type of pain that feels like burning, tingling, or shooting pain. One of the causes of this type of pain is thought to be inflammation around the nerves.
What Does the Research Say?
An interesting note, a drug from GW Pharmaceuticals called Sativex, was approved for symptoms related to moderate to severe Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in patients who have not adequately responded to other anti-spasmodic MS medications. One of the causes of MS symptoms is inflammation. Sativex contains both THC (the part of marijuana that makes you feel high) and CBD. Some think that its effectiveness may be due to the anti-inflammation effects of THC and CBD.
One study, completed in 2011, showed how CBD could also be a potential treatment for IBD. This study was done on intestinal biopsies from humans with Ulcerative Colitis (a form of IBD) and intestinal segments that were inflamed from mice. CBD reduced inflammation in the cells and decreased the amount of intestinal damage.
A more recent study from 2016 suggested the use of CBD to help with arthritis. Arthritis pain can be related to inflammation around the joints. This study used a transdermal CBD gel on rats to see if it would help with reducing inflammation and pain. They found that CBD reduced joint swelling and pain in a dose-dependent manner. They also used pro-inflammatory markers (like the TNFα mentioned above) to measure inflammation. It was noted that CBD also reduced inflammation in a dose-dependent manner. This just means that the higher the CBD dose was, the lower the levels of inflammation were.
So far, as with the studies listed above, the research has been done in animals or cell cultures. Research with humans are mostly case reports, meaning they are based off of situations that occurred in one person and not in many people like with clinical trials. Therefore, we cannot say definitively that CBD will help with inflammation in humans and we will have to wait for more data. However, it does have an excellent safety profile and the research does seem to support CBD having anti-inflammatory actions.
Final Take-Away Points
All in all, CBD is beginning to become an exciting new supplement in the medical world. Research seems to be expanding as the world is seeing the health benefits CBD might have. We do have to wait for more clinical studies to be completed in larger amounts of people, and for there to be reproducible results. Despite this, CBD may help with inflammation based off the data we have so far. It also does not have harmful side effects, unlike traditional anti-inflammatory agents. So, it might be worth talking to a health care professional about to see if it is right for you. If you have any health issues that are due to chronic inflammation, it could be a nice add-on to your medications that are treating your condition. It may even help to lower your doses of these medications and potentially decrease the side effects from them. It should not be used as your sole treatment for these conditions however, unless your physician states otherwise.

text: Diisocyanates have been the most commonly identified cause for occupational asthma (OA) in industrialized areas. Asthma among diisocyanate workers may be true occupational asthma, caused by a high level of irritant exposure at work or by sensitization to diisocyanates. Alternatively, asthma may be coincidental to or may be aggravated by work exposures. A clear diagnosis usually requires a combination of investigations (serial peak expiratory flow recordings, methacholine challenges, and/or diisocyanate challenges), but it is important to provide the best management by identifying whether workplace changes are needed for the worker. Preventive measures to reduce the risk of occupational asthma from diisocyanates have not been prospectively evaluated. The introduction of a medical surveillance program (in Ontario, Canada) in 1983 was followed by retrospective assessments to determine benefits. Between 1980 and 1993, the proportion of all accepted compensation claims for OA that were attributed to diisocyanates, classified by year of symptom onset in the province with the program, rose to 64 percent by 1988, then fell significantly down to 29 percent in 1992 and 35 percent in 1993. Besides the medical surveillance program for diisocyanates, possible factors contributing to this reduction may include reduced diisocyanates exposures and better awareness of diisocyanate-induced asthma, both by workers and physicians. Compared with OA caused by other agents, those with OA due to diisocyanates had a significantly earlier onset of asthma after the start of the exposure (mean 5 yr vs. 7 yr), were younger and less likely to be atopic and to have smoked. The mean duration of asthma before the main medical assessment for compensation was significantly shorter among those with diisocyanate-induced asthma (mean 2 yr vs. 3 yr), and the severity was milder as assessed by medication use and pulmonary function. Those with diisocyanate-induced asthma were significantly less likely to be hospitalized for asthma. Among the subset whose outcome was determined at a mean of 2.1 years after the main medical assessment, the outcome severity was less for those with diisocyanate-induced OA. Among those with diisocyanate-induced OA, an earlier diagnosis and a trend to better outcome was found in workers from companies that were identified to be in compliance with surveillance measures.

Psalm 95:1-2, 6-7, 8-9
Romans 5:1-2, 5-8
The first two Sundays of Lent paint the big picture of salvation history. Two weeks ago, we heard that God created man and called him to dwell with him in paradise, but in his pride, man rejected this invitation and sinned against God. Christ, the New Adam, rejects the temptation of the Devil and restores man to his original vocation. Last week, we meditated on the glory to which we are called and which Christ has won for us on the Cross. The next three weeks during lent are a special preparation for the Sacraments of Christian Initiation, for our new life in Christ.
The first reading tells us that the people of Israel begin to grumble and complain in the desert. They start to lose hope and long for their former way of life in Egypt. Moses seeks an answer from God, who grants them the gift of water. In spite of this and instead of trusting in God, they test God and quarrel among themselves. They even doubt that God accompanies them: “Is the Lord in our midst or not?”
Like the people of Israel, we are also on an exodus journey. However, our exodus is not lead by Moses, the servant of God, but by Jesus, the Son of God. Our exodus does not lead to the promised land of Canaan, but to the Promised Land of heaven, God’s abode. In the desert of life, God gives us the waters of Baptism and heavenly manna in the Eucharist. We are called to hope and trust in God. We cannot harden our hearts to God’s action; rather, we must bow down in worship and kneel before the Lord who guides us. Our prayer should be one of thanksgiving and praise.
In the second reading, Paul tells us that the Holy Spirit has been given to us and that God’s love has been poured into our hearts. The waters of Baptism justify us and purify us from original sin. They establish God’s dwelling in our hearts and introduce us into the life of the Trinity: we become children of the Father, members of Christ’s body and temples of the Holy Spirit. The waters of Baptism are effective because they signify our sharing in Christ’s death and resurrection. We go down into the water with Christ crucified and rise up from the waters with the risen Christ.
In the Gospel, John narrates the conversation between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. Jesus does not begin by accusing her of sin. Instead, he brings her to desire the water of eternal life that only he can provide. From this deep and profound desire for eternal life, she is led to recognize her sinful state. Christ sees her heart and wants to heal her wounds. The woman desires to know more from Jesus and she is told that soon God will be worshiped in Spirit and truth. This will be the fulfillment of the covenant promises made to Abraham of a worldwide blessing. Jesus concludes by introduces her in the mystery of the Messiah, the one who will redeem Israel and all humanity from sin and death. The separation of Jews and Samaritans will end and all men and women will be welcomed into the Church of Jesus through the waters of Baptism and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

United`s Fletcher takes break for health reasons
London: Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher is taking an extended break from football due to health problems, the Premier League champions said on Tuesday.
Fletcher, also captain of the Scottish national team, has missed a number of matches this year due to what was believed to be a viral illness but United said his absence was actually down to a chronic bowel condition.
"Over the past year he has had several absence periods which we have attributed to a viral illness in order to respect his right to medical confidentiality. Darren has, in fact, been suffering from ulcerative colitis (a chronic inflammatory bowel condition) for some time preceding this," said a statement on the club`s official website (www.manutd.com).
United said Fletcher had managed to keep his symptoms under control for long periods but that this had proved more difficult recently.
"He has therefore accepted medical advice to take an extended break from the demands of training and playing in order to afford the best chance possible of achieving full remission once again," the club added.
Fletcher, 27, has been at Manchester United his whole career, developing into one of the club`s most combative and disciplined central midfielders.
His absence will be a further blow for United manager Alex Ferguson who is currently without injured midfielders Anderson and Tom Cleverley, strikers Javier Hernandez and Michael Owen, and Brazilian defenders Rafael and Fabio da Silva.
Captain and central defender Nemanja Vidic has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.
"We are going to miss two big players in Fletcher and Vidic, I hope they both come back fitter and stronger than ever," United defender Rio Ferdinand said on Twitter.
It was not clear how long Fletcher`s break from the game is likely to last.
United are two points behind Manchester City at the top of the Premier League and have qualified for the Europa League after failing to reach the Champions League knockout stages.

Barrett Resources acquires Raton basin coal bed methane properties
Barrett Resources Corp. acquired coal bed methane assets in southern Colorado from an affiliate of Kansas City Power & Light Co. for $52.9 million. The properties contain proven coal bed methane gas reserves of 75 bcf, Barrett said.
Barrett Resources Corp., Denver, acquired interests in 54,675 acres of coal bed methane properties in the Raton basin in southern Colorado for $52.9 million cash. The purchase from Kansas City Power & Light Co. (KCP&L) affiliate, Apache Canyon Gas LLC, includes proven coal bed methane gas reserves of 75 bcf, with about 80% undeveloped.
About 83% of the total leasehold, or 45,555 acres, is undeveloped. Most of that is under a perpetual mineral ownership with a 100% net revenue interest. A gas gathering and compression system and 57 producing wells also are included, with an effective sales date of Oct. 1, Barrett said Thursday.
The company will begin immediate development of the Vermejo Formation coals at depths of 1,400-2,400 ft. It plans to continue an active development program and to drill several pilot programs targeting the Vermejo and Raton Formation coals in 2001. Both coals are currently producing in the basin.
"These properties provide significant opportunity to grow gas reserves, production, cash flow and operating income and complements our quality portfolio of low risk, long-term development projects in the Rockies," said Peter A. Dea, Barrett chairman and CEO. "We also have the opportunity to leverage our technical and operational expertise into a new core area to maximize the value to our shareholders."
The KCP&L earnings impact from this transaction will be 26�/share and will be booked in the fourth quarter. Its previously announced sale of Raton properties to Denver-based Evergreen Resources Inc. resulted in earnings of 62�/share in the third quarter and 23�/share in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year. In aggregate, KLT Gas transactions will contribute $1.11/share to the KCP&L total year earnings.
"These sales by KLT Gas show the benefit of our ongoing strategy of acquiring natural gas properties, developing the resources and then divesting at a timely point to realize value for our shareholders," said Bernie Beaudoin, president of KCP&L.
Gregory J. Orman, CEO and president of KLT Inc., said the sales to Evergreen and Barrett complete the company's investment cycle in the Raton basin. KLT Gas will now turn its attention to developing 175,000 additional acres of coalbed methane gas properties in the Powder River, Sand Wash, Hanna, Arkoma, and Forest City regions. The company will continue to acquire early-stage coalbed prospects where KLT Gas can add value.

What an amazing new restaurant! My husband and I anxiously awaited the opening and were not disappointed. The food and service were better than we could have ever expected. We had the chicken parm and Tortellini Dunedin. The portions were large and both were yummy, yummy, yummy! The house wine is also very good. It was also nice to see the owners walking around to make sure that everyone has having a wonderful experience. We can't wait to go back and try the outside dining area now that it is starting to warm up. What a delightful and delicious addition to downtown Dunedin.

That’s it. The party’s over! Not that having five children in the house is like a party… aside from maybe the noise levels, the mess, and the fighting out of nowhere over the stupidest little thing.
I don’t usually talk about it. It hurts too much. It’s the topic that can break me in a split second.
But this year I’ve decided if I want to get back to writing, then, well… I kinda have to write. After a 4 year hiatus it’s about time I started talking again. I love it, I am good at it, and it’s great therapy.
My children left yesterday, to go back home for another year of school. I’m still crying. For reasons known to myself and loved ones, my children live at the other end of the country with their father.
It never gets any easier.
Every time we say goodbye it takes me at least 24 hours to pull myself together enough to even speak to someone. If you’re not a close relative, forget about it. I shut down and go through what can only be described as a mourning process. I try to limit my ‘feeling sorry for myself’ time to 24 hours because even though the children aren’t with me, parenting doesn’t stop. They need me to be strong and able. To plan and provide. So I make sure to not stay in that head space. I used to have to get myself back in the right mindset to run things at work, now I’ve got a little one and a partner that need me to get my shit together so our lives can run smoothly.
People say strange things to me when they find out how my family works. Some have said “I could never do that.”
It’s a hurtful phrase you know? Like I WANT to do this? Why would I want to do this? Take a moment before you speak and think about how much you love your child and would do anything for them.
Re-read that last sentence.
Think about it.
You don’t know what leads people to the choices they make.
Just stop talking.
That is all.

The Jane Austen Book Club
Karen Joy Fowler
One man and five women, all great readers who are passionate about literature, get together to read Jane Austen's six works. We're invited to join in ... in the club and also in members' lives. Each of them knows and loves a different Jane Austen, one that accommodates his or her own world view and life experiences.
Fowler is interested in how we read: we read through the lens of our own experiences—but what we read can also shape the way we see our lives, sometimes transforming them. Fowler explores this reciprocity with humor and sympathy. It's a clever and fun book, especially for Austen fans, who will pick out themes and parallel events from her works.
The club members observe that all of Austen's works end happily—and club member Allegra (nicely ironic name) thinks that makes Austen dangerous. Is it dangerous to believe that life should turn out happily? Another member asks older and wiser Bernadette if she believes in happy endings? "Oh my Lord, yes," she answers. "I've had a hundred of them." Elsewhere, members debate whether Austen's characters—and real people—deserve the happiness they get...or get the happiness they deserve. In other words, must we earn happiness or does it come to us gratuitously...or what?
A smart, funny, thought-provoking book—don't miss this one. (There is a film. But really...I don't know. It's enjoyable, but don't go out of your way.)

Institutions of education and the gadget of which they’re a component face a host of unparalleled higher demanding situations from forces in society that affect and are encouraged with the aid of those very institutions and their communities of learners educators. Among those forces are sweeping demographic modifications, shrinking provincial budgets, revolutionary advances in facts and telecommunication technologies, globalization, competition from new academic vendors, market pressures to shape academic and scholarly practices in the direction of profit-pushed ends, and increasing demands and pressures for fundamental changes in public policy and public accountability relative to the function of better schooling in addressing pressing issues of communities and the society at huge. Each person of those challenges could be tremendous on their own; however, they increase the complexity and problem for training to sustain or improve the essential work of serving the general public top.
Via a discussion board on education, we can conform to Strengthening the relationship among better education. Society and culture would require a broad-based attempt that encompasses all of the training, not simply person Establishments, departments, and associations.
Piecemeal solutions can make the simplest pass thus far; alternate strategies should be knowledgeable via a shared vision and a hard and fast of not unusual objectives. A “motion” method for exchange holds greater promise for transforming educational culture than the prevailing “organizational” technique.
The mobilizing trade would require strategic alliances, networks, and partnerships with various stakeholders within and beyond training.

This approach is understandably ambitious and unique in its cause and application. In the long run, the common Timetable challenges the gadget of higher training. People who view training as critical to addressing society’s pressing problems act intentionally, collectively, and definitely on an evolving and big set of commitments. Currently, 4 wide problem areas are shaping the focus of the common Schedule: 1) Building public know-how and guide for our civic task and movements; 2) Cultivating networks and partnerships; three) Infusing and reinforcing the cost of civic responsibility into the way of life of better training Institutions; and 4) Embedding civic engagement and social obligation inside the shape of the education system

We consider the relationship among groups and training Establishments to be based on the values of equally, admire and reciprocity, and the work in schooling to be interdependent with the alternative Institutions and people in society.

We recognize the interconnection of politics, energy, and privilege. The commonplace Timetable isn’t always for better training to self-serve, but to “walk the communicate” relative to espoused public goals.

A 26-year-old Rochester man was arrested in connection to a search warrant executed earlier this month.
Police responding to a report of a suspected drug transaction arrested Edward Gildersleve Monday at around 10:30 p.m. The call was to the 1500 block of North Broadway, in the parking lot of the shopping center near Silver Lake Foods and Burger King.
When an officer stopped a vehicle near the scene, they found Gildersleve inside and arrested him
after finding a bag containing 73 Tramadol pills without a prescription. Rochester Police Department Capt. John Sherwin noted that the car also smelled of marijuana.
Sherwin said that police were looking for Gildersleve in connection to search warrant executed earlier this month at an apartment in northeast Rochester. There, authorities said at the time they were seeking electronic evidence in connection to a recent shooting. Inside the apartment, authorities found nearly 50 grams of cocaine and a stolen handgun from North Dakota.
Sherwin said Gildersleve has previous encounters with law enforcement and is well-known to authorities. Gildersleve faces a charge of fifth-degree possession of a controlled substance. He remains in custody.
