The music video for “On Columbine,” a track from the star-studded concept album Guns: The Album, made its online premiere last March but understandably got lost in the flurry of media attention surrounding the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting and the historic March for Our Lives demonstrations that followed. The song, featuring singer-songwriter Claudio Parrone Jr., and its accompanying video are moving meditations on America’s school shooting epidemic, featuring clips of three of the last four U.S. presidents lamenting the lives lost to gun violence (Donald Trump, meanwhile, can be heard, in a speech at the NRA last year, declaring an end to the “assault” on the Second Amendment).
Tess Harper (#1–10 of 2)
[Editor’s Note: This is the first entry in our annual “Summer of…” series, copresented by Aaron Aradillas, Jamey DuVall and Jerry Dennis of Blog Talk Radio’s Movie Geeks United! Ishtar was released in theaters on May 15th, 1987.]
Here’s a conspiracy theory for you: Ishtar is intentionally terrible. Director Elaine May, one half of the team that founded American improv, is too smart a writer to be this unintentionally inept. Numerous lines and gags support this notion, and the almost universally reviled Ishtar plays like a career suicide note. Here is a writer who no longer wants to direct, so she constructs a bomb with a self destruct sequence initiated by the equipment projecting her movie. This “goodbye, cruel world” aims to be a clever kiss-off à la George Sanders; instead it’s closer to Delroy Lindo’s famous graffiti in Spike Lee’s Clockers: “Bitch, you is dead.”

answered, I am a Christian? It is to be feared, that if the consequence of such a declaration were death, many of us would hesitate, and be at a stand. How. ever, we must be ready to undergo something for the sake of our king when called upon to suffer. Did our blessed Saviour for our sake undergo such a series of sufferings ? and shall we not for his sake and for the confession of his kingdom, suffer ourselves to be mocked and despised ?
Fourthly, as God can so incline the hearts of his enemies as to make them subservient to his decrees, we, who are under the protection of Jesus Christ, ought to lay aside all fear of men.
What a remarkable proof was it of God's power in turning the human heart, that Pilate, almost like Caiaphas, (John xi. 51.) should write the truth unknowingly and against his will; and that he should be, as it were, the first Apostle, in proclaiming the Gospel of the kingdom of Jesus Christ in three different languages ! This instance should be an assurance to believers; that all things shall work together for their good; and that even the devices and schemes of their enemies shall terminate in promoting the de. crees of God.
Who then will be terrified at the enterprizes of their enemies? who will be afraid of them, so as to be deterred from following Christ? They have no power of themselves to hurt us; they cannot do what they will; but, even against their will must execute what God has appointed concerning his servants.
Fifthly, when the cause of Christ seems to be in the greatest danger, then God more eminently displays
The enemies of Christ little expected, when he was once fastened on the cross, that they should ever hear of him again. But behold! while Jesus was yet hanging on the cross, God begins to glorify his name, by directing Pilate to say, What I have written, I have
• written. Thus for the consolation of his oppressed
' VOL. II.
people, God stiles himself 'I am that I am,' (Exodus
( ii. 14.) The case is still the same; when, to men, things seem irretrievable, God shews himself in his incontroulable power, and draws a line and sets bounds to the desire of the wicked, saying, "Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further; here shall thy proud waves be staid,' (Job xxxviii. 11.)
II. We come, in the next place, briefly to consider the second remarkable circumstance which happened at the crucifixion; namely, the dividing of our blessed Saviour's garments. The account of this circumstance presupposes, that Jesus was stripped of his
, garments before he was lifted up on the cross; and as his body was lacerated with scourging, it must have occasioned a sensible pain. But neither the pain, nor the ignominy with which this indignity was attended, caused the Lamb of God to make any resistance. He quietly suffered his garments to be taken from him, that he might be a complete burnt offering to the Divine justice. As he came naked and helpless into the world, it pleased him also to go naked out of it. Thus our blessed Lord patiently submitted to this last reproach of being exposed naked before so many thousands; and likewise descended to the lowest step of poverty, being stripped of every thing that belonged to him. It may therefore well be said, that he became poor for our sake, that we through his poverty might be rich,' (2 Cor. viii. 9.)
The Lord Jesus having been thus fastened naked to the cross : his clothes, according to the usage of the Romans, fell to the lot of the soldiers who had performed the execution. And as there were four of them concerned in crucifying our blessed Saviour, they now set about dividing his garments. These were of two kinds, namely, a large upper garment which came down to the feet, according to the custom of the Orientals; and under this, a close vest. Hence the Evangelists, particularly St. John, who was present on Mount Golgotha, informs us how the soldiers proceeded in dividing each of these robesa
Of the upper garment they made four parts, to every soldier a part; so that this loose robe was cut into four pieces. Some commentators have observed, that such garments were made of four pieces sewed together, and therefore might be very conveniently divided into four parts. As for the close vest or coat, as it did not consist of several pieces sewed together, but was woven without any seam; they thought it best, instead of cutting it, to cast lots whose it should be. The Evangelists take notice of three particulars relating to this circumstance.
1. They observe, that by this division of our Saviour's garments that scripture was fulfilled, in which David introduces the Messiah, making this complaint: They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots.' This prophecy, which even the ancient Jewish Church understood of the Messiah, was now fulfilled; and this accomplishment of it is here mentioned by St. John, in order to guard the faithful against the offence of the cross.
If our Saviour's garments had been only divided, it might be said, that this was no more than David might very easily have conjectured; it being customary almost in every country, for the clothes of executed cri. minals to fall to the executioner's share. Therefore, as David probably knew by the spirit, that the Messiah was to be crucified, he might naturally conclude that he must give up his garment to the executioners, And as the punishment of crucifixion was inflicted by more than one executioner, it might be supposed that his garments would be divided among them. But how could David, from mere conjecture, foretel that lots would be cast for the Messiah's vesture? This circumstance entirely depended on the free will of the Roman soldiers; and yet the Holy Spirit caused it to be predicted many hundred years before; that, by the accomplishment of it, we might be assured that ihçse things had not fallen out fortuitously, and without any design. No one that lived in the time, when this
phecy was delivered in the Old Testament,'could have thought that it would be fulfilled literally, and in the very order of the words as delivered by the Psalmist, (Psalm xxii. 18.) But who could have less intention of fulfilling the Scripture than these soldiers, who did not so much as know that any such occurrence had been foretold by the Prophet? This is a miracle of Divine wisdom, in directing these circumstances in such a manner, that men unknowingly fulfil what he has determined ; and yet not by compulsion, but still retaining their full freedom. Therefore St. John, who was an eye witness of the whole transaction, breaks out into an exclamation of wonder, · These things therefore the soldiers did ! The pious Luther has a very remarkable passage on this procedure of the soldiers : “ It is my opinion, says that learned divine, that the soldiers did not divide our Saviour's garments for the sake of any profit or advantage, but merely by way of ridicule and jest ; as a token that all was over with Jesus, and that he was lost, destroyed, extinct, and utterly forgotten, as tlfe basest and most contemptible of men. Therefore they not only deprived him of life, but would not let his friends or relations have even his clothes for a memorial of him :
a These miscreants neither expected that he would rise again, nor were afraid that his death would be avenged by his heavenly Father.”
2. St. Matthew observes, that the soldiers, after they had divided his garments, sat by the cross, and watched the Lord Jesus. This was done likewise according to the Roman custom : for it was usual to set a soldier or two, and sometimes more, to watch such as were crucified, lest their relations should carry them off either living or dead, and decently inter them. This, in some measure, was also designed as a reflection on the followers of Christ, who were looked upon as a set of people that were for opposing the public execution of justice; and upon this unjust supposition, the disciples were afterwards charged
" 'with having stolen away their master's body out of the
sepulchre. Now, whether they had any thoughts that Jesus, by magical arts, would escape from the cross; or whether they apprehended that he would be rescued by the populace ; both these suspicions were extremely injurious to our blessed Saviour. Some are likewise of opinion, that a stronger guard than usual was appointed to watch our Saviour on the cross, at the solicitation of the chief priests; yet, by the Divine superintendency, this precaution served only to confirn, before all the people, first the reality, of his death, and afterwards of his resurrection.
3. St. Mark observes, that this division of Christ's garments, was made about the third hour, i. e. in the third temple hour or great division of the day, which begun at noon, and ended at three in the afternoon: For the Jews divided both night as well as day into four quarters, each of which contained three common hours. If in this circumstance of our Saviour's
passion, namely, the dividing of his garments, we consider the behaviour of the Roman soldiers, it must be owned, that they may put many Christians to the blush, who, in the division of inheritances, often break out into violent quarrels, and irreconcilable enmities, and engage in chargeable law-suits. This division, on the contrary, was carried on without the least dispute or wrangling; and such was the prudence and moderation of the parties, that they consented the whole coat should fall by lot to one of them, rather than be spoiled by cutting it asunder. Will not these Pagan soldiers rise in judgment at the last day, to the condemnation of those malignant Christians, who, rather than gratisy their neighbour, will suffer a thing to be destroyed, or consume it among lawyers, rather than come to an amicable agreement with their relations. These soldiers are likewise an emblem of
. those who are satisfied, if they can only get food and raiment by their external profession of religion. Had these wretched men humbled themselves, before

In addition to having antifungal properties, cannabinoids can even increase the effectiveness of other antifungal compounds. The examine also confirmed that these cannabinoids can enhance the effectiveness of one other naturally-occuring and intensely potent and efficient antifungal referred to as caryophyllene oxide.
Readers are directed to the excellent accompanying critiques in this issue which expertly focus on the scientific trials, cell biology, mechanisms of motion, impact on irritation, medical purposes, and so forth. Exogenous cannabinoids or receptor antagonists may influence many cellular and systemic host responses. The anti-inflammatory exercise of cannabinoids might compromise host inflammatory responses to acute viral infections, but may be helpful in persistent infections. In neurons, the place innate antiviral/pro-resolution responses include the activation of NOS-1, inhibition of Ca2+ activity by cannabinoids, increased viral replication and disease. This evaluate examines the effect of cannabinoids and their antagonists in viral infections.
Cbd Oil As An Anti
Many people who endure from ear infections have mental well being primarily based side effects consequently. With tinnitus, for instance, the fixed ringing in one’s ears can result in nervousness and stress. In my opinion, taking CBD alone isn’t the most suitable choice to battle fungal infections, as they will progress if not treated correctly.
CBD topical merchandise additionally comprise a moisturizing compound GLA, which is a type of omega-6 fatty acid, so when it’s utilized to inflamed skin, you may experience some relief. Besides omega-6 fatty acid, CBD has omega-3 acid, which helps to enhance an general skin health. A study from 2011 revealed that particular compounds present in cannabis plants contain antifungal properties. These cannabinoids include cannabidiol , cannabichromene , and cannabigerol .
The anti-inflammatory properties of cannabidiol relieve the flaking and burning of patchy skin, reducing redness and dryness nearly immediately. As infections or injury to your pores and skin can cause flare-ups, the antioxidant components of CBD oil can even alleviate the infection that worsens the circumstances. Cannabidiol, or CBD, may be a significant various to medical procedures for people looking for to alleviate particular skin problems.
Cannabinoids And Viral Infections
To understand how cannabinoids act as an antifungal, one should perceive how antifungals work. Fungi cells are eukaryotic cells, which have membranes defending the nuclei. Antifungals kill the fungal cells by destroying the cell membrane by way of inhibiting the manufacturing of ergosterol, the lively lipids that feed the fungi cells. Without ergosterol, the fungi cell dies off with out inflicting harm to any of the other surrounding cells.
Similarly, more severe exacerbations central nervous system an infection by Acanthamoeba among HIV-contaminated sufferers has been attributed to marijuana consumption , possibly by inhibiting macrophage chemotaxis . However, the antiinflammatory results of cannabinoids have been found to be useful in attenuating fever induced by bacterial endotoxin , inhibiting cytokine responses to Corynebacterium parvum endotoxin . These medication may supply therapeutic efficacy in meningitis attributable to Streptococcus pneumoniae and in irritable bowel syndrome .
Best Cbd Oils For Antifungal
In distinction, in these infections the place host inflammatory responses are sometimes associated with pathology, and not with clearance and restoration, cannabinoid treatment of hosts was beneficial. TMEV-IDD is characterised by microglial activation in the spinal twine of mice and a T cell-mediated autoimmune demyelinating disease, triggered by the viral an infection . In both BVD and TMEV-IDD, the targets for the anti-inflammatory results of the cannabinoid remedy are lymphocytes and mononuclear cells. Due to the anti-inflammatory properties of cannabinoids, CBD merchandise have the upper hand in averting the irritation that comes with inflammation. Inflammation is common among circumstances in which your skin displays extreme dryness, rashes, sores, and redness.
Dry, simply irritated skin can be hereditary, and there’s no cure for sensitive pores and skin that breaks out in rashes because of an overactive immune system. Medications, particularly prescriptions, for our pimples and clogged pores can have harsh side effects on our general pores and skin health.
Many CBD topicals contain coconut oil, important oils, and shea butter to supply further moisturization. Users have discovered CBD topicals to be extraordinarily useful in preserving dry or irritated patches from turning into painful rashes. The topicals also can give a really satisfactory relief from the inflammation and irritation. Other skin conditions in which skin can experience glorious advantages with the common use of CBD products are rashes and intensely dry skin. For some people, a careworn immune system can often trigger skin to overreact and switch into rashes which are dry and itchy, just like these experienced with eczema.
The use of hemp oil cleaning soap and different topicals, along with a food regimen wealthy in healthy fats, has been found to provide one of the best relief for outbreaks of sores and itchy bumps. Your skin could obtain essentially the most advantages from cannabinoid creams versus the inhalation of hashish smoke. The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties assist retain moisture and defend in opposition cbd superfood smoothie recipes cbd shakes to the sun when CBD-infused topicals are used regularly. For bug bites and itchy pores and skin, CBD oil benefits of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties begin to work at the website by calming your body’s immune response. For flaky and patchy pores and skin, topical CBD oil provides a significant amount of moisture to the affected website to heal broken and cracked skin.
The greatest method to avoid breakouts of rashes and intensely dry pores and skin is to know what you are allergic to and to keep hydrated, particularly during extremely dry weather. However, as most skin issues are not contagious and are actually fairly frequent, hemp oil for pores and skin is hugely helpful in soothing pores and skin that’s already irritated. With the use of topical cannabis oil frequently, flare-ups of rashes and dry skin patches may be prevented or calmed down extra quickly.
Unfortunately, only little analysis has been carried out in order to show this assertion, so there aren’t any scientific research out there, which show direct CBD results on fungal infections. However, in 2011 in the British Journal of Pharmacology the study was publish that showed some cannabinoids have moderate antifungal characteristics. On the internet there could be discovered different testimonies of the folks that say that CBD is anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial, so it could possibly help with treating minor bacterial infections. CBD has additionally been proven to help relieve some frequent skin situations such as irritation, bug bites, infections, itching and wounds.
In some instances, it could be exhausting to determine whether or not a bacterial or viral an infection is the underlying trigger behind your symptoms. Viral infections may be minor in wholesome and regular individuals, but may be quite life-threatening for people who have a weakened immune system.
A medical condition marked by a yeast-like fungus generally known as Candida albicans which overgrows throughout the mouth and throat, Thrush is a normal yeast an infection that impacts both men and women. Few kinds of fungi develop naturally contained in the physique and can be helpful or dangerous. You are likely to get contaminated when fungus gets very troublesome for the immune system to deal with. You will need to have heard of the common kinds of pores and skin fungal infections like athlete’s foot, ringworm, jock itch or yeast infections.
A natural antibiotic and antifungal plant medication is the cannabinoid CBD that treats bacterial, fungal and yeast infections with efficacy and no antagonistic side effects. Cannabinoids could relieve pain and may induce hyperphagia, which could possibly be beneficial in most cancers . However, the same anti-inflammatory properties of cannabinoids just described are detrimental to the host in dealing with the other infections. In most circumstances, a fast and sturdy inflammatory response, associated with production of proinflammatory cytokines and impact T lymphocytes capable of eliminating infected cells is important to recovery and survival. There are many indirect evidences that suggest CBD and hashish plant normally are more likely to have antifungal properties.
“CBD is a reasonable candidate to be studied in preclinical coronavirus models,” the reported. There are a number of pores and skin problems, including psoriasis, the place the pores and skin cells in the affected space speed up in regeneration, inflicting the cells to develop an overage of skin too quickly. Within days, skin cells can build up and turn into patches of scales till handled. Many within the medical neighborhood consider these pores and skin situations to be related to autoimmune ailments, and native steroid injections are sometimes probably the most prevalent remedy, however these include a range of unwanted effects. CBD has been found to assist relieve frequent pores and skin situations corresponding to inflammation, itching and burning, bug bites, infections, and scrapes and wounds.
Again, I am not a medical doctor and am simply providing you with the newest research and data out there. Studies cited previously show that CBD isn’t the only cannabinoid with antifungal properties. Hence, when choosing a CBD product to help with fungal infections, go for one that contains full-spectrum CBD oil. Also perceive that clinical trials testing these substances are extraordinarily limited or lacking completely.
With extra benefits such as omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, CBD has a fantastic observe document for enhancing your total skin health. CBD topical products additionally normally contain a moisturizing compound known as GLA, or gamma-linolenic acid, which is a type of omega-6 fatty acid. When it’s utilized to inflamed skin, you may expertise satisfactory relief. This pure form of therapy permits your pores and skin to heal without adding harmful toxins which will have adverse unwanted effects, like those who happen with the usage of steroids.
- Few forms of fungi develop naturally inside the physique and may be helpful or harmful.
- A medical condition marked by a yeast-like fungus often known as Candida albicans which overgrows inside the mouth and throat, Thrush is a standard yeast an infection that impacts both women and men.
- Cannabinoids could relieve pain and will induce hyperphagia, which could possibly be beneficial in most cancers .
- You tend to get infected when fungus gets very difficult for the immune system to deal with.
- You must have heard of the common forms of pores and skin fungal infections like athlete’s foot, ringworm, jock itch or yeast infections.
Moreover, CBD has been shown to have antibacterial and antifungal properties, so it definitely won’t be dangerous for treating a ringworm. But at the identical time, I wouldn’t advocate sticking solely to CBD within the strategy of treating a ringworm. As fungal pores and skin an infection, it tends to progress and turn into more severe if not treated properly, so seeing a health care provider is very important. Your doctor might prescribe various drugs and if you wish to add CBD, you need to definitely talk about this along with your physician to ensure it will not affect the remedy of the infection.
CBD works upon the CB2 receptors of the endocannabinoid system and regulates the immune response. Many components trigger the immune response to go berserk like strong irritants, infections and pathogens, autoimmune points and even your way of life. Inflammation causes problems and ailments to deteriorate and as an anti-inflammatory agent, CBD curbs inflammation and regulates the immune system. The proinflammatory cells cytokines trigger the ache receptors of the nerve cells and the longer they continue to be inside our system, the larger the activation of the pain receptors.
Caryophyllene oxide is a terpene found in cannabis and other vegetation, including basil, rosemary, and hops. The core of a cannabinoid consists of 1 oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom. These sorts of compounds attract other compounds that comprise oxygen molecules. Once these compounds appeal to different oxygen compounds, they go through a chemical reaction called oxidation, which binds the compounds. When fungal cells are oxidized with cannabinoids, fungal cells are now not capable of multiply or develop.
For HSV-2, HIV-1, KSHV, influenza and VSV viral replication, or surrogate measures of an infection, were found to be substantially increased upon cannabinoid remedy . In HIV-1 an infection, syncytia formation was enhanced, and monocytes had been stickier on endothelial cells . In one examine, KHSV was extra prone to exit latency and enter lytic infection when transformed cells had been handled with THC , nonetheless, another study discovered the alternative result in several herpesvirus infections . This June examine also summed up how although there’s trigger for optimism, there is still a protracted way to go to show hashish works as a salve for COVID-19.
Table 2 presents what has been revealed about these populations in peer reviewed journals. In a lot of the infections studied , it’s obvious that cannabinoid treatment, whether in vitro or in vivo, had profound impression on the virus-host interactions.
Some formulas may be too potent for delicate skin, thus inflicting more damage. Other topical medications could also be incorrect for the type of clogged pores and blackheads you have. However, some people have found that once they apply CBD merchandise to their skin, the primary profit they notice is the decrease within the harsh appearance and measurement of a blemish.
In addition to antimicrobial properties, this cannabinoid can even counter the irritation brought on by the an infection. Researchers believe that CBD oil could be helpful as an efficient therapy alternative for infections ensuing from drug-resistant bacteria. Two wonderful reviews of the influence of cannabinoids on bacterial, yeast, and protozoan infections had been revealed in the identical issue of Journal of Neuroimmunology .
It protects our immune system thus acting as an antiviral treatment in opposition to several types of virus and micro organism. Thus, common consumption of CBD can be really efficient in combating the widespread chilly and flu.
When our skin comes across potential pathogens, it becomes inflamed to protect the body towards those irritants. Disease was more extreme in HSV-2-infected guinea pigs which have been treated with THC . In HCV infections, scientific research have shown a profound co-morbidity of leisure cannabinoid use, for disease progression . One case report of Cowpox an infection, a really uncommon human pathogen, indicated that recreational use of cannabinoids was associated with generalized an infection and very poor immune responses to the virus .
Rather, cytokines heighten pathologic ache and also aggravate the pain skilled in oral and vaginal thrush. In all different virus infections, both in vitro and in vivo, cannabinoid treatment led to illness development, increased pathology, and typically to host demise.
It is estimated that in a one-12 months, around one billion folks in the U.S. will suffer from this situation.URI refers to an infection that affects our nasal passages and throat. It is very contagious and an individual might transmit the virus via touching, sneezing and coughing. There is a excessive danger of developing a URI, in an enclosed house such as an workplace, a classroom, or home. One such natural and effective method to increase your immune system and prevent such infection is Cannabidiol or CBD. Today we are going to let you know extra about this an infection and the way you need to use CBD to treat it naturally.

That being said, cannabidiol, the minimally psychoactive component of cannabis, has some good purpose to be overvalued. For some situations, like sure seizure issues, CBD has proven to be a particularly secure and efficient treatment. And for other conditions, anecdotal reports have pushed forward the scientific group’s efforts to explore the molecule’s reported benefits. Depending on who you ask, CBD seems to be the remedy for what ails you, no matter what’s mistaken.
These infections included Treponema pallidum , Legonella pneumophila (Legionnaires’ disease), Staphylococci aureus and S. albus, Listeria monocytogenes, Candida albicans , and Naegleria fowleri. Both critiques concluded that THC significantly reduced host resistance to an infection of experimental animals, and speculated that related host compromise could be found in man. In the more than 12 years since those critiques were printed, further findings have extended the serious consequences of cannabinoids on host responses to pathogens and opportunistic infections. Marijuana use is a danger factor for Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections ; this author speculates the suppression of host innate immune responses by THC contributes to the increased severity of TB in users.
Therefore, in lots of medical settings, together with latent infections caused by HIV-1 or HSV-1, and persistent infection of the liver caused by HCV, cannabinoids lead to worsened illness end result. Both endogenous and exogenous cannabinoids can influence the course of infections in vitro and in vivo. This evaluation will concentrate on viral infections of mammals, but may also describe what is thought about different infections.
CBD oil is gaining floor as an effective remedy for a variety of widespread illnesses and analysis is regularly being done to raised perceive all of the methods CBD oil can probably benefit human well being. One of probably the most important developments in using CBD oil as a medicinal supplement has been in the space of bacterial infections.
Viral Infections: A Brief Overview
This is because of the fungal cells not being able to produce ergosterol which is important for progress and survival. The means of cannabinoids oxidizing and eliminating the fungal cells is how cannabinoids show their antifungal properties. So, as the medical field faces growing numbers of antibiotic-resistant micro organism and ensuing difficulties treating bacterial infections, the findings from this study yield nice promise. Research states that CBD has intense antimicrobial properties and can be utilized together with other cannabinoids to fight virus and bacteria causing the common cold.
This cannabinoid possesses anti-inflammatory properties which can assist with nasal congestion, discomfort within the nasal passage and different symptoms of URI. CBD is claimed to interact with the receptors current in the Endocannabinoid System and thus assist in boosting our immune system. One of the commonest sicknesses that end in absence from college or work is the Upper Respiratory Infection, the common cold.
Inflammation plays a key position in serving to the body struggle a bacterial an infection, but if not managed, it can also be a hindrance. Chronic inflammation may cause ache and stiffness to many areas of the body, and can also be responsible for a number of inside circumstances. Uncontrolled bacterial inflammation encourages cell apoptosis and the era of harmful free radicals, which has been linked to conditions similar to Alzheimer’s Disease.
Results from a study earlier this year found CBD to be “remarkably efficient” at killing bacteria. The quick listing of information introduced and included above must be encouraging towards a call for elevated cannabinoid analysis on many alternative anti aging cbd moisturizer for reducing appearance of wrinkles hydration benefits medical situations, including bacterial and viral infections. Cannabinoids have been used both recreationally by groups of people that have viral infections, and experimentally by scientists investigating their impression in vitro or in animal models.
Do You Currently Use Cbd From Cannabis, Cbd From Hemp, Or Cannabis Without Cbd?
Due to the anti-inflammatory properties of cannabinoids, CBD merchandise have the benefit of taking away the irritation that comes with inflammation. Studies on the effectiveness of cannabinoids against pores and skin irritation confirm the promising function of CBD, especially topical CBD oil, in pores and skin irritation. Inflammation is widespread amongst ringworm conditions when your pores and skin is extraordinarily sore, dry and purple.
Because the symptoms in girls could be much like different infections like bacterial vaginosis and sexually transmitted ailments, it’s essential to visit your physician. Additionally, persons benefits of cbd gummies for treating pain stress anxiety nausea and aiding sleep are ready to make use of CBD to battle off infections without experiencing any of the widespread unwanted effects associated with certain varieties hashish like paranoia and lightheadedness.
These whole plant CBD oils include more antifungal properties than CBD isolate oil because the terpenes and cannabinoids work collectively to destroy fungi cells.

One of the advantages of CBD oil is that it displays antifungal properties. Another wonderful method CBD may help in relieving the symptoms is by combating the inflammation and boosting our immune system.
I would suggest standard anti-fungal creams and utilizing CBD as a complement. Although the antifungal advantages of CBD have been recognized for the reason that Eighties, solely restricted research has been done since that point.
As a wholesome medication, CBD helps to break the cell membranes of the fungi without impairing the human cells. No wonder, CBD has proven to be a well-acknowledged antibacterial which builds a robust protection to ward off viruses, micro organism, and even fungi. CBD works like an antibiotic and resists bacterial and fungal infections.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin doesn’t forget awkwardness, apparently.
According to PennLive’s Jacob Klinger, Tomlin remembered team dinners during his playing days at William & Mary. The team would sit down and there was confusion as to which cup belonged to which player.
It was enough for him to institute a Rookie Etiquette class to be administered each year to the new wave of Steelers’ players.
Klinger writes about the three-and-a-half hour lesson business etiquette coach Patricia Rossi gave the rookies in a private room at the Capital Grille May 26.
They learned to not stand with their hands crossed in front of their crotch, how to not shake someone’s hand and touch their forearm with their other hand and write thank you cards.
Did Bud Dupree, who met with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on stage at the draft, shake hands properly? There’s a solid question. Viewing it on replay, and reading how Klinger described it per Rossi, we’d have to vote a strong “maybe.” It couldn’t have been far off. And while it was posing with the Steelers’ generic No. 1 jersey for the pick photo, he definitely did not have his hands crossed near his crotch.
Points for that, Bud.
It’s an interesting peek inside the corporate side of the team’s inner-workings. A team that wants to pride itself on character must enforce discipline. That discipline does not always refer to punishment, either. It’s a matter of carrying oneself with respect, and, as may be the case here, doing things a player may not want to do, but doing it because the coach asked them to do it.

Desert Rose | Since I was a kid I thought I would have been a gardener sometime.
I believe a garden is a very gentle way to express your creativity.
Growing old I have realized that the flowers in my garden were made of concrete, stone, mosaic.
Being asked to plant something in the beautiful garden of Dubai, the first thing that came to my mind was a desert rose.
A formation of minerals in the shape of an edgy beautiful rose.
A mysterious architectural flower has grown in the middle of the desert with a secret heart open to the inner circle of family and friends.
This is my “say it with a flower” homage to Dr Omar.


Since the creation of the first drone in 1918, the technology used in the development of drones has advanced a lot. According to a US journal the development and widespread use of modern-day drones began in 2006. Drones are used for a variety of purposes like commercial, military, educational, etc. Nowadays drones are easily available online for people to just assemble and use. In this current world of drones, it would be a really exciting opportunity for you to attend a drone workshop and create one of your own from scratch. Here are some of the exciting workshops that you can attend to learn more about drones:
A drone is an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) which is controlled from the ground by establishing proper communication. Their small size helps them to fit in a lot of constricted places and perform the required task. The drones can also be made to fly autonomously using on-board computers to make decisions on their own. Such systems employ the usage of sensors and GPS along with proper programs in their embedded systems to control their flight plans. Recent technologies have turned drones into an important tool to help mankind in case of calamities, huge fires, earthquakes, etc. Drones are one of the most advanced devices in today’s technology of robotics and aeronautics.
Initially, drones were used only for military purposes. They were used to drop missiles on enemy territories or to spy on them. However, over the years people started using drones for a variety of other purposes like racing, logistics, 3D mapping, surveying, etc. The drone revolution is bringing a transformation in a lot of sectors because they perform complex tasks at less cost. Some of the main applications of drones are:
The usage of drones has been increasing exponentially over the years. They are very popular with a wide variety of applications. Because of this, it has gained the attention of students, hobbyists, and industrialists. Fabricating a drone not only helps you to learn about aeromodelling but robotics too. You can create your custom drone by adding different sensors and devices as per the purpose you wish the drone to fulfill. However, to do so you should have basic knowledge about drones like how it works, what are all the required components to construct a drone, how to control it, etc. The best way to gain knowledge about something is by attending workshops. Here are some of the best drone training programs in India delivered by trained professionals:

For as irreverent as History of the World, Part II might be, there was one person for whom everyone involved had great reverence: Mel Brooks, the man behind the original film being lovingly continued for the new Hulu sketch series.
“I think for many people in this project, our world centers around Mel Brooks,” guest star
Pamela Adlon tells Consequence. “I grew up with Mel Brooks as part of my DNA, he’s in my bones with Free to Be… You and Me. I learned how to do voices by imitating him and Marlo Thomas being babies. And then ‘The 2000 Year Old Man’ with Carl Reiner, Young Frankenstein, and History of the World, Part 1 — I don’t remember the first time I saw it, I just remember it being in my body. That’s what a huge Jesus Mel Brooks is to me and Nick [Kroll] and everybody else.”
Brooks might be 96 years young, but he still actively contributed to the new project as an executive producer, writer, and narrator, with executive producers Nick Kroll, Ike Barinholtz, and Wanda Sykes spearheading the project. According to showrunner/executive producer David Stassen, “We were just thrilled right away to meet with Mel. He already had jokes he’d been waiting 40 years to tell for the sequel.”
“It’s the most joyful thing, knowing that Mel is able to see this at this point in his life and we’re able to give him flowers. But it’s not passive, he’s actively involved. It’s a kind of a harmonic convergence, a perfect moment,” Adlon says.
While Brooks was present, the series represents a huge amount of collaboration between today’s funniest comedy voices, with nearly 100 credited guest stars from all spheres of entertainment. Some of those guest stars also contributed behind the scenes, because as Kroll explains in the full video interview above, key to making the series feel like something made today, but still true to the Brooks ethos, was the writing.
“How do you pay respect to what Mel’s work always was, which was funny and on the cutting edge and risky and silly and fun, and then bring that into a 2023 context? It really started with our writers’ room,” he says. “We tried to bring together all different kinds of folk, all under the guise of just bringing as many funny voices in as possible.”
This included writers who were present for the entire run, as well as guest writers like Los Espookys co-creator Ana Fabrego and Abbott Elementary star Janelle James. The room also included Community alum (and Shirley Chisholm expert) Adam Countee, The Mindy Project writer and Bros star Guy Branum, and Hacks co-executive producer Joe Mande.
Adlon says that she came on board the project after getting a text from Kroll, a longtime acquaintance with whom she works on the Netflix shows Human Resources and Big Mouth. “He says, ‘You wanna play my wife in History of the World, Part II?’ And I text back, ‘Voice or face parts?’ and he texts me back ‘Face parts,’ and I’m like, Ugh. And then I’m like, duh. Like, what do you say to Nick Kroll about anything? ‘Will you come clean my toilet?’ ‘Yes.’ You say yes to Nick Kroll. And so that’s how it began. Usually I never get to be part of anything cool unless it’s my thing. I feel still like I’m pinching myself.”
Adds Adlon, “These guys are genuine mensches — we gotta stay in the Yiddish. They have sechel. These are mensches with sechel and they get you right in the kishkes.”
The season features plenty of one-off sketches, but there are also several recurring storylines, centered around each one of the executive producers, as Kroll explains: “I did a story around the Russian Revolution and Ike did a story around the Civil War and Wanda did a story around Shirley Chisholm and her presidential campaign.”
While multiple directors contributed to the series, the tentpoles were directed by Alice Mathias, a veteran of sketch shows including Portlandia, I Think You Should Leave, and That Damn Michael Che. “Alice was top of everyone’s list because of her experience,” Stassen says. “And she said yes, and then reconsidered, but it was too late because she’d signed the contract and we made her do it.”
“Not true,” Mathias laughs, “But yeah, it was incredible. I mean, it’s such a great team — just meeting on the show was so exciting and to get the job was unbelievably cool. Then immediately thereafter I was like, really? I’m gonna do Mel Brooks? I’m carrying the canon of Mel Brooks into the second installment? What am I doing here? But it ended up being great.”
Another tentpole running throughout the season is the story of Jesus — or the stories of Jesus. Kroll says that taking on Jesus made sense because “you want stories that seem familiar to an American audience, but also hopefully there’s some new material inside of it. And I think the story of Jesus, and specifically Jesus and Mary, was something that felt like it would be familiar, but we could tackle from a bunch of different genres. That was what was most exciting, was when we cracked the idea of like, ‘Oh, each gospel will be different,’ whether it’s Curb Your Judaism, around a Curb Your Enthusiasm homage, or the Beatles Get Back documentary, which Ike and I were watching while writing and making the show, or The Notebook of Mary. It felt like a great opportunity to tell seemingly familiar stories, but from different genres and perspectives.”
Mathias says that when it comes to capturing different genres within each sketch, “you really turn towards the reference material and study it almost academically. I’m taking screenshots. I’m looking at how things are blocked. I’m looking at, you know, the production design and the mistakes — especially the mistakes.”
She also put in some time analyzing Brooks’ films in particular, to “see the themes of his work, whether they’re physical comedy themes or, like, breaking the fourth wall. Just really studying what he did and then seeing what we could do throughout our second installment to echo his work was really such a fun undertaking.”
When it came to making choices between authentic replication of projects like Curb Your Enthusiasm or Get Back, Mathias says that “you obviously can’t just reenact the source material and not have some kind of observation you’re making along the way. And so, we never prioritized the source material over something that’s funny. But I think that authenticity definitely heightens how silly you can get with it, if that makes sense. Grounding it in a reality of the source material makes room for things to get stupid.”
Stassen says “we were always asking the question ‘What would Mel do with this scene?’ He had rapping guys in the forest in Men in Tights, right? So you gotta call out that these apostles don’t all have great British accents, because also they’re in like Israel 2000 years ago. Why are they British? Just, you know, what would Mel do? Well, he would just look for as many jokes as possible.”
Brooks’ love of burying jokes in the production design helped Mathias solve one problem she was facing: When Jack Black, as Stalin, was about to break into song during a Russian Revolution sketch, she wanted a lighting change, so that “suddenly we’re in this dramatic spotlight Les Mis moment. But I was like, if it happens in a way that’s unmotivated, it’ll just feel like the filmmaking is just too present. And of course, Mel, he just has so many jokes in his production design that it was like, oh, the solution is to just have a button on the wall that he hits that says ‘dramatic light change.'”
While the Jesus sketches feature different styles, the casting remains consistent, with Jesus being played by Insecure star Jay Ellis. But there was no fear about taking on the subject of a Black Jesus — as Stassen put it, “It was like, yeah, fuckin’ A it’s gonna be a Black Jesus. We had never afraid of of blowback for better or worse. 40 years ago, you know, in Mel’s sketch of The Last Supper, he did it, he did it with all Caucasians. And so that was maybe one way we just wanted to update it.”
Says Kroll, “When we presented [Brooks] with a bunch of the material, he said we’re gonna get some letters, and that’s good. So much of what Mel has always done has been some provocative but not necessarily overtly political. And I think we tried to carry that ethos through into this show, which is to make something that felt fun and risque and also silly. I think that was sort of always our goal. Along the way, I’m sure you’re gonna hear from people who don’t love it, but purposefully our goal was to just have fun and really be silly, not take anything too seriously. So if individuals have issues with it, then of course that’s their prerogative. But the goal was for it to just be silly across the board. And hopefully, that comes through.”
In the Curb Your Judaism sequences, it’s Kroll (as Judas) in the Larry David role, and given how star-studded the cast is otherwise, it made sense to ask if David himself had been asked to participate. “We thought the nicest thing we could do was leave Larry alone,” Kroll said. “We kept being like, should we offer this to Larry? And it truly felt like no. Like, why make him say no to us? So truly we were like, let’s just leave him be and we’ll do this, and then he can not see it when it comes out, and we’ll be fine.”
That said, Kroll notes that “we truly don’t think we could have done [Curb Your Judaism] without JB Smooth. If JB had said no, I don’t think we could have done it. And the fact that we then had Richard Kind in there, there were a lot of pieces that had to happen to make Curb Your Judaism work. And JB and Richard were the most key to that.”
Stassen calls out the Get Back homage as a particularly successful one: “Alice and Kevin Atkinson, our DP, just nailed the the Beatles doc vibe. And that was, I think, the most fun the actors had. I feel like they just loved the hybrid of like, ‘I’m an apostle, but I’m also Ringo.’ That was fun stuff.”
“There was too much good stuff,” Mathias agrees. “At one point I was like, can we just have the whole episode that’s just the Beatles? Because it’s so good.”
Kroll directed the final beat of the Jesus arc himself, a big-budget movie trailer featuring a “reimagined” Jesus, following the Council of Nicaea. “He really was excited to do that one. It was always one that he had a take on and so it was great that it was in his hands,” Mathias says.
Again, all of this is in service to Brooks’s legacy, and Adlon hopes that bringing that legacy forward to today might help viewers reappreciate what comedy can be. “What I think is fundamentally wrong now with the way we execute things and look at comedy and storytelling [is that] you have to be able to play. You can’t be afraid to play,” she says.
Continues Adlon, “[Brooks] went to lots of really problematic, naughty, insane places where you do that now, it’s weaponized against you or against who you’re making fun of. And so hopefully this can make people go, ‘Oh my God, this is what satire and parody is. It’s all meant in good fun, and to make us laugh at ourselves and make us think.’ And that is Mel Brooks. That is his legacy, that lives and breathes in me as a filmmaker and a writer and an artist in every way. And I’m gonna continue to try to keep telling stories the way Mel Brooks taught me.”
History of the World, Part II is streaming now on Hulu.

Chris Dodd is proposing that the protection office be within the Treasury Department instead of being independent, a clear capitulation to the Republicans. –JCL
Wait, before you go…
Mother Jones has obtained a copy of Sen. Chris Dodd’s plan to house a consumer financial protection office within the Department of the Treasury rather than creating an independent agency. Several other news sources have received copies, but none have made the leaked document publicly available. We’re posting Chris Dodd’s consumer financial protection plan here (PDF). It seems certain to disappoint experts and progressives who had called for a powerful new agency. (Andy Kroll has more on this.) This is the document’s top-line summary:
Create a [Bureau of Financial Protection] inside of Treasury with a Presidentially-appointed director; a dedicated budget (through assessments on large banks, non-banks, and with the Fed making up the shortfall); autonomous rule-writing authority with the regulations to apply across-the-board to all entities offering financial services or products; and examination and enforcement authority for large banks and mortgage companies, small banks in a back-up capacity, and other non-banks on a risk basis, as described below.
The independent agency proposal would be dropped.
As Andy explained Saturday afternoon, Dodd’s decision to move financial protection inside an existing agency is an effort to gain Republican votes for financial reform. But it’s unclear whether either of the Republicans Dodd has negotiated with to date—Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Al.) and Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.)—will support the new plan. There hasn’t been any hint of GOP backing for the proposal in newspaper articles on Dodd’s leaked plan.

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are battery powered heating devices that contain nicotine, propylene glycol and flavors, which generate a vapor that is inhaled to mimic the experience of smoking. These are considered to be potentially less harmful than tobacco smoke and are used to aid smoking cessation.
However, the availability of such devices to never-smokers as well as current smokers, is controversial, and has led to much debate between clinicians and public health officials. Several clinicians have voiced their concerns regarding safety, re-normalization of smoking and impact on long term public health. Research in this field is growing, but findings at this stage are considered to be preliminary. Additionally, much of the current research can suffer from methodological issues, significant conflicts of interest and inconsistent results. However, researchers are hard at work to address these issues and it should only be a matter of time before influential long-term results will be obtained.
In the meantime, the World Health Organization (WHO) is implementing regulations to restrict e-cigarette advertising and to end e-cigarette use indoors in public and work places. Although it is recognized that e-cigarettes may be harmful, a large group of scientists and clinicians who are specialists in nicotine science and public health policies have signed a statement asking the WHO to consider classification of e-cigarettes under different standards as regular cigarettes. These specialists argue that e-cigarettes are tobacco harm reduction products and are more likely to help people quit smoking compared with other conventional methods, and thus play a significant role in reducing non-communicable diseases and associated deaths.
This special article collection in BMC Medicine addresses the debates around e-cigarettes and includes carefully selected critiques from invited experts on a spectrum of topics from research agendas, health policies and regulation, to psychiatric and public health outcomes.

Music therapy has a beneficial effect on health
Music improves the mood, gives hope, strengthens the heart and generally has a healing effect. It has long been used in the treatment of psychiatric patients. Music has healing properties for people with heart disease and diabetics – it was discovered a little more than a decade ago. The action of music therapy with medication helps patients recover more easily or prevent an angina pectoris attack, heart attack or heart rhythm disorder. It is performed individually (morning and evening). The choice of music is made according to the musical genre, tempo and tonal scale.
The effect of music has been irrefutably proven in 2 different ways. It has been established that certain songs (or compositions) cease to be a pleasure if people have hypertension, while some songs lower blood pressure. Sensitivity to sound is enhanced in the state of increased blood pressure. Therefore, only music that pleases and lowers blood pressure is used in music therapy.
A study was conducted on about 740 people with a heart attack in the Emergency Center. Patients were divided into 2 groups. Both groups had medication, but only one group had both pharmacotherapy and music therapy. In that group, each individual was first assigned a music genre. The most difficult thing was to prescribe music therapy to patients who were not honest. The music genre can be easily determined by the sudden opening or contraction of the pupils of the eye depending on the time of day (day or night). Many patients showed a reaction to multiple types of music, even songs they had never heard before. Musicologists recorded a special compact disc with 8 types of music (jazz, classical music, pop, rock, evergreen, landscape, folk and instrumental music). By checking the physical reactions to these types of music, the type of music that the patient likes is determined (although the pupils of the eyes can also dilate to a type of music that the patient did not know he liked until then).
Instrumental music (without lyrics and singing) is used in the therapy of hypertension and arrhythmias. It has been observed that compositions with a musical tempo of 85 to 105 are suitable for patients with hypertension and 90 to 100 for diabetics. Compositions with a tempo of 90 to 98 are suitable for a patient who has both diseases (high cholesterol and heart failure). Should the composition be in major or minor – is determined at the end.
The effect of music with essences on the production of endorphins and pleasure hormones that reduce heart rate and blood pressure. Concentration on music lasts a long time after listening to music (up to 10 to 12 hours). The incident then repeats itself. 370 people treated in the Emergency Center (with pharmacotherapy and music therapy) experienced a significant decrease in blood pressure and heart rate. Patients listened to music for 2 years. Classical music is mostly instrumental and is therefore suitable for therapy.
Music should be listened to for at least 12 minutes to have a healing effect
The choice of compositions changes after 3 months with other types of compositions but with the same effect. By listening to music chosen in this way, the conditions for the occurrence of angina pectoris, repeated heart attacks, heart surgery are reduced, and the death outcome is statistically significantly reduced compared to the control group. The same enzymes also reduce acid secretion in people with stomach and duodenal ulcers.
Music lowers blood pressure and slows down the heart rate just like medication – it has been proven by a scientific study.
The largest number of world music hits corresponds to the rhythm of the heart (according to the music tempo
An interesting discovery was found in the medical records of great composers. It was established that great music creators composed music that best suited (in accordance with the musical tempo) their illnesses. And a scientific study proves that the music that pleased the composer also pleased the selected respondents.
Johann Sebastian Bach’s compositions were effective in lowering blood pressure, and we know that this German composer suffered from hypertension.
The Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi had migraines. Listening to Verdi’s music has been great in curing attacks of this type of headache. Antonio Vivaldi suffered from epilepsy, so his music is used to treat this disease. Mozart suffered from impotence, so his works give excellent results in the treatment of men with erectile dysfunction. Antonin Dvorzak had low blood pressure, so his works treat hypotension. Mihail Galinka had diabetes, so his compositions are especially pleasing to diabetics. The German composer Johannes Brams had asthma, so his works are especially pleasing to people with asthma.
A good effect of music is listening to music with any rhythmic movements that fit into the music. Movement allows the body to release negative emotions. The German composer Karl Orf also practiced a kind of music therapy. He gave the respondents small drums to beat on the drums. All of them said that they got rid of tension after the performance.
In cases where it is not possible to make a quantitative cross-section of blood pressure, cholesterol and sugar, then the person’s pulse should be measured and music should be selected according to the pulse. Each composition on the score has the music tempo is also written down. In the case of certain diseases and disorders of the heart, instrumental compositions with a tempo of 90 to 100 in the minor tonality should be chosen.
The values of elevated blood pressure, blood sugar and elevated cholesterol were observed. A section corresponding to the musical tempo from 90 to 98 was obtained. Minor tonality (causes sadness and wistful moods) is suitable for people with high blood pressure, diabetes and heart failure. Compositions by Mark Knopfler (a famous British guitarist) and “Waltz of Flowers” by Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky are suitable for people with a combination of heart failure, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol.
The composition of Italian-born British musician Annunzio Paolo Mantovani (or Norweigan composer Edvard Grieg “Morning” from Per Gint) will appeal to people whose heart weakness is associated with diabetes.
The music “Swan” from Carnelian Animals by Camus Saint Sans will appeal to people who are associated with heart failure, obesity and hypertension.

Stomach (Gastric) Cancer
By: Carlie Davis
- Stomach cancer (also known as Gastric cancer) is cancer that develops in the stomach.
- The cells that line the stomach become cancerous
- The cancer first starts in the stomach and then can spread to other parts of the body
Early symptoms include:
- heart burn
- loss of appetite
- discomfort in stomach/abdominal region
- bloody stool
- weight loss
- bloody vomit or vomiting
- weakness or fatigue
- Where you live
- Blood type
- Smoking and excessive drinking
- Stomach cancer is hereditary and can be inherited
- If you have H Pylori, you have a higher risk of getting stomach cancer
- Eating healthy foods like fruits (especially citrus fruits) and vegetables
- Avoid tobacco use
- Treat H Pylori infection
- Take aspirin
- Avoid excessive drinking
To treat stomach cancer, radiation and chemotherapy is not needed. Instead, they will perform surgery to remove parts of the stomach, or in some cases, take the whole stomach.
How is Stomach Cancer Diagnosed?
First, the doctors will assess your symptoms and then either do an upper endoscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, or biopsy.
Who Gets Stomach Cancer?
- mostly men
- chances increase over the age of 50
- people with H Pylori
- African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians
- The average age of people who are diagnosed with stomach cancer is 69
- 6 out of 10 people who are diagnosed with stomach cancer are 65 and older
- 1 out of 111 people will be diagnosed with stomach cancer in their lifetime

Today is the day Mexico plays a weakened El Salvador team in the grand Estadio Azteca. El Salvador has historically been one of the weaker teams in CONCACAF. After some player disputes, many of the experienced players refused to play so the El Salvador team will take on even younger and less experienced players. Making this team an even weaker opponent for Mexico, possibly.
What does this mean for Mexico?
- The Problem of Mexico playing to the level of their opponent.
Maybe Mexico doesn’t see the urgency when playing agains lower level teams or they expect a goal to eventually come, relatively easily. When Mexico plays Brazil, Spain or other bigger teams, they usually play with “garra”, “ganas” and give a good performance.
- Will Mexico underestimate El Salvador.
Mexico knows the problems the El Salvador federation is having. Many are asking not if Mexico will win, but how many goals they will score. Even if Chicharito will reach Borgetti’s record.
- Is there a Mexican arrogance in the air.
We have seen multiple lineups released by different sources. New players on defense, variety of combinations on offense. Chicharito on the bench possibly, along with Layun. Usually during friendlies you will see experimentation by NT coaches, trying out new lineups, formations, etc. This is the beginning of World Cup Qualifying. A legitimate tournament. Sure it’s a weakened El Salvador, but is it arrogant to put one lineup today and one vs Honduras, even if it’s just 4 player changes? Or is it not that important that a single linup of players gel and get fully used to playing under a new DT and a new strategy? Is this experimentation time or time to buckle up for a hard fought tournament to get to Russia?
Time will tell. Stay tuned tonight!

Guest editorial: Taxes for Transportation?
Growth is happening here.
Development will respond with more housing, and commercial construction. More schools will be built. The result? Many more people moving from one place to another.
Transportation is defined as: “the act or process of moving people or things from one place to another”. We can all agree we have a transportation issue and we need to respond, which costs money.
Alarmingly, we keep discussing transportation in a vacuum without considering place. (An origin and a destination) Adding additional “places” exponentially increases transportation issues and congestion. Every driveway, shopping center, office building, and apartment complex becomes both a point of origin and a destination requiring people to intersect each other across multiple transportation means and routes.
Uncontrolled, this is called sprawl. No community has ever figured out how to successfully financially deal with sprawl and no “transportation” solutions exist to adequately respond to sprawl.
Ever seen a 4, 6, or 8 lane road that wasn’t congested at 8AM and 5 PM? So just building more traffic lanes won’t solve the problem. It will result in much more traffic and congestion that we can’t financially respond to unless:
People walk, use mass transit, and limit automobile usage. Bet you never heard that before. But how do we get people to limit automobile use; to walk and use mass transit? We can’t. Only they can decide to do that. People will use cars less and mass transit or walk more only when they decide it is more convenient, faster, and less expensive Solutions are known. We can choose the ones that serve us best. We can enable the strategies we need at limited expense, and let markets provide solutions for us. What if development responded to growth in ways that helped? We would have to make that easy, fast and profitable.
Alternate routes mean less congestion. Dense development in one place means less sprawl, less intrusion on existing land use, less corner development in your neighborhood. We must strategize nodes of development incorporating schools, shopping, associated restaurants, and limited parking. Bus rapid transit would serve only these nodes, perhaps on lanes reserved for buses, school buses and emergency vehicles. If you lived in your 5,000-square-foot house on an acre of land you wouldn’t have bus access unless you drove to a node. (Experience indicates that many people would choose to do that).
How? Some known tools: Speedy approvals. Density swaps; allowing increased density in approved nodes for land rights purchased from elsewhere. There is some number at which landowners will be clamoring to sell and developers happy to buy. Every time that happens it’s one less driveway. Permitting 10,000-square-foot grocery stores means needing roughly 1/3 of the rooftops to justify one. Such groceries would be much more accessible. Schools inside dense developments would require less highway use to access them. We could easily incorporate affordable housing. Many people with mass transit access would find only one car necessary.
By the way, light rail is out of the question. Yes, it’s more fun and perceived as more luxurious, but we don’t have the population to support the cost estimated in excess of $30 million per mile.
We know the tools and incentives that will cause people to make the decisions needed to protect our way of life, absorb anticipated growth and minimize the transportation cost to serve it. We know we will need to spend money. Let’s do it in a way that works.

text: (WASHINGTON)— The House of Representatives today passed a job-creating water infrastructure bill with the support of Rep. Rick Larsen. The Water Resources Reform and Development Act authorizes federal investment in ports, flood control and ecosystem restoration. Northwest Washington has several ongoing federally funded water infrastructure projects. The Water Resources Reform and Development Act governs funding for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for water navigation projects (including ports and shipping channels), flood control projects and ecosystem restoration projects. Several projects in Northwest Washington use Army Corps funding, including: The Skagit River General Investigation Study and Swinomish Channel dredging. The bill authorizes increased investment in water infrastructure which is funded by the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund. Congress currently spends only about half of the money that comes into the trust fund each year. The bill authorizes spending 80 percent of the fund’s intake by 2020. The bill also sets aside 10 percent of funding for small parts, like Everett, Skagit and Bellingham. Small ports are drivers of local economies.
