Second, all minerals and vitamins should be taken in the most absorbable, bioactive forms. This makes the product a little more expensive, but there is a huge difference in the body’s ability to absorb and metabolize different forms of nutrients. I recommend Pure Encapsulations’ Polyphenol Nutrients to my patients, as part of a natural home remedies protocol for diabetes.
Sometimes pills for diabetes — even when combined with diet and exercise — aren't enough to keep blood sugar levels under control. Some people with type 2 diabetes also have to take insulin. The only way to get insulin into the body now is by injection with a needle or with an insulin pump. If someone tried to take insulin as a pill, the acids and digestive juices in the stomach and intestines would break down the medicine, and it wouldn't work.
When a patient is ready to make a big commitment to get their blood sugar under control, Simos works with them to help tease apart what may be causing their blood sugar to spiral. Sometimes it’s what they're eating, sometimes it’s stress at home and at work and sometimes it’s a day full of sitting versus moving. Often, it’s a mix of these things. Other factors may contribute to diabetes risk, including a family history of the disease.
The big news with the use of fig leaves is that they have anti-diabetic properties. The diabetic needs less insulin when on a treatment of using the fig leaf extract. The diabetic should take the extract with breakfast, first thing in the morning. An additional remedy is to boil the leaves of the fig in some freshly filtered waster and drink this as a tea. Read the whole article on fig leaves and diabetes:
After you are diagnosed with diabetes, by following a healthy lifestyle, which includes a healthy diet along with exercise, you may be able to decrease your blood glucose levels to within normal range. Utilizing SMBG (self monitoring of blood glucose), you can see how different foods, as well as meals, influence your blood glucose levels. Doing SMBG along with a healthy diet and exercise is key to getting your diabetes under good control.
I feel the information is partial and not based scientific research, it treats values but what is the root of insulin resistance is avoided, the theory that taking the sugar and carbohydrates and enter protein and oil will improve the situation is based on clear results of the diet in shorten period, of course that the problem root is not treated and became worst, the insulin resistance is not a genetic only or abnormal function developed by the consume of carbs, evidence shows more and more that actually refined carbs and oil and animal protein is connected. I think modestly that the for those that want to reverse the chronic disease the best way is to test what is offered and then go to a fasting-sugar-overload test and see if the resistance has been removed, I will like to read if this has been checked by the doctors, thanks
Esophageal cancer is a disease in which malignant cells form in the esophagus. Risk factors of cancer of the esophagus include smoking, heavy alcohol use, Barrett's esophagus, being male and being over age 60. Severe weight loss, vomiting, hoarseness, coughing up blood, painful swallowing, and pain in the throat or back are symptoms. Treatment depends upon the size, location and staging of the cancer and the health of the patient.
Diabetic patients must get professional dental cleanings every six months. In cases when dental surgery is needed, it is necessary to take some special precautions such as adjusting diabetes medication or taking antibiotics to prevent infection. Looking for early signs of gum disease (redness, swelling, bleeding gums) and informing the dentist about them is also helpful in preventing further complications. Quitting smoking is recommended to avoid serious diabetes complications and oral diseases.
Healthy fats: Medium-chained fatty acids found in coconut and red palm oil can help balance blood sugar levels, and they serve as the preferred fuel source for your body rather than sugar. Using coconut milk, ghee and grass-fed butter can also help balance out your blood sugar levels, so include these foods into your meals and smoothies. Some research actually suggests that a high-fat, low carb diet known as the keto diet may be a novel approach to reverse diabetes naturally, although you don’t technically have to go into ketosis to achieve the benefits of healthy fats in treating diabetes. (12)
Could restricting your diet for a couple of days a week put type 2 diabetes in remission? That’s the controversial claim scientists of a small new study are making as they fan the fire around a diet fad known as intermittent fasting. But many health professionals, including those at the American Diabetes Association, argue that the approach can be dangerous for people with diabetes, whose bodies cannot control their blood sugar without careful diet, medication, and sometimes insulin management.
One of the biggest hits in type 2 diabetes treatment is glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 receptor agonists, which induce insulin production in beta-pancreatic cells while suppressing the secretion of glucagon. All big pharma have GLP-1 drugs on the market or their pipelines, including Sanofi, Eli Lilly, Roche, AstraZeneca and Boehringer Ingelheim. But Novo Nordisk is going a step further with the first oral version of a GLP-1 drug, which is now close to the market.
Diabetic persons are advised to make morning appointments to the dental care provider as during this time of the day the blood sugar levels tend to be better kept under control. Not least, individuals who suffer from diabetes must make sure both their physician and dental care provider are informed and aware of their condition, medical history and periodontal status.
It is great to read these columns of Diabetes. I have tried feenugreek but it raises my blood pressure. Since, I am a patient of High Blood pressure, this does not help me. I am 65, control my diet, walk daily for 6-7 km too and take my medication regularly but still blood sugar is out of control. Fasting is usually 150. Any suggestions from friends. Thanks and Cheers for all.
The problem with the medication-based approach is that you’ll most likely have to be on these medications for the rest of your life. They are expensive and many come with a host of side effects. The medication approach focuses on management of diabetes, not reversal. Taking medications for type 2 diabetes combats the end result, which is rising blood sugar, but does not address the root causes—insulin resistance and carbohydrate intolerance.
In the study, Fung and his team randomly recruited three men, ages 40 to 67, with type 2 diabetes, who also had high cholesterol and high blood pressure. At the start of the study, the authors recorded the participants’ vitals, including their A1C (a three-month average of their blood sugar levels), their fasting blood glucose levels, their waist circumference, and their weight. All three men were on insulin and oral medication.
Depending on the severity of diabetes, an individual can keep control on his/her disease using diet alone, diet & oral hypoglycemic drugs, and diet & insulin. While a mild diabetic can practice disease control with diet alone, a severe diabetic might need to practice diet control along with insulin administration. Whatever the method of controlling diabetes, routine and reliability should be strictly pursued. A person suffering from diabetes should have limited amount of carbohydrates and fats along with moderate amount of protein in the diet. High-fiber diet like vegetables, whole wheat products, oats, whole legumes prove to be more beneficial. Let us have a look at what all should be had and what all should be avoided.
Big pharma are in the early stages of developing their own cell therapy approaches for diabetes. Novo Nordisk, one of the largest providers of diabetes treatments, is bidding for stem cells and an encapsulation device, stating that the first clinical trial could take place in the “next few years.” Sanofi, also a big name in diabetes, is working with the German Evotec in a beta cell replacement therapy for diabetics.
Greek clover is an annual herb with aromatic seeds having medicinal properties. It is also known as fenugreek, and is largely used in curry. Greek clover has properties to lower down the levels of glucose in the body, which, in turn, controls diabetes. Also, when given in changeable doses of 25 gm to 100 gm on a daily basis, it was found to diminish reactive hyperglycemia in diabetic patients. Furthermore, levels of glucose, serum cholesterol, and triglycerides were also appreciably reduced. Alternatively, one can just stir two teaspoons of Greek clover seeds in powder form in warm milk and consume on a regular basis; it will control the levels of blood sugar and keep diabetes at bay. In case one does not want to have the powder in milk, seeds can be eaten wholly, too.
Thank you Dr. Hallberg!! I am a Family Nurse Practitioner who did tele-medicine for 5 years before retiring. At 66 years of age my doctor diagnosed me with Type II Diabetes. I refused to take the medication and instead opted for a 6 month trial to lose enough weight to make the difference. After 4 months I’d lost 8 pounds and still had high blood sugars. Then my husband’s PCP recommended watching your TedTalk. That was the beginning and we both jumped into LCHF/Keto with both feet using Diet Doctor and you as our main resources. My husband has lost 38 pounds and I have lost 42 pounds since November 2017. More importantly my lab results today were a HgbA1c of 5.3 with average blood glucose of 105. I have about 50 more pounds to go to be at a healthier weight BUT I owe you a big thank you!! Now I’m working to encourage others of my friends, family and coaching clients to give LCHF/Keto a try! Thanks!!!!
Yes. The combination of insulin and an oral medication, when taken as directed by your doctor, is very safe and effective in controlling blood sugar. A typical combination therapy consists of taking an oral medication during the day and insulin at night. Once you begin taking insulin, you will need to monitor your blood sugar more often to reduce the risk of low blood sugar reactions.Combination therapies are often helpful for people who have Type 2 diabetes (adult onset diabetes). If you have been taking an oral medication, your doctor may change your treatment plan to include insulin injections. This change is often made to help people with Type 2 diabetes gain better control of their blood sugar.
Although a close relationship exists among raised liver fat levels, insulin resistance, and raised liver enzyme levels (52), high levels of liver fat are not inevitably associated with hepatic insulin resistance. This is analogous to the discordance observed in the muscle of trained athletes in whom raised intramyocellular triacylglycerol is associated with high insulin sensitivity (53). This relationship is also seen in muscle of mice overexpressing the enzyme DGAT-1, which rapidly esterifies diacylglycerol to metabolically inert triacylglycerol (54). In both circumstances, raised intracellular triacylglycerol stores coexist with normal insulin sensitivity. When a variant of PNPLA3 was described as determining increased hepatic fat levels, it appeared that a major factor underlying nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and insulin resistance was identified (55). However, this relatively rare genetic variant is not associated with hepatic insulin resistance (56). Because the responsible G allele of PNPLA3 is believed to code for a lipase that is ineffective in triacylglycerol hydrolysis, it appears that diacylglycerol and fatty acids are sequestered as inert triacylglycerol, preventing any inhibitory effect on insulin signaling.
Like trials with any other supplement or herbal product, the primary question we must answer is “What exactly was studied?”. The cinnamon you have in your kitchen may be a single species of plant or a mix of different cultivars. Ceylon cinnamon (Cinnamommum verum) is more commonly found in the West. Cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum aromaticum) is the version of cinnamon that’s been studied in trials. The chemical hydroxychalcone has been identified as a potential active ingredient, which is believed to modify the sensitivity of cells to insulin, enhancing their uptake. If that’s the true mechanism of action, then it would work in a manner similar to that of the drugs Avandia, Actos, and metformin (Glucophage). Given the active ingredient (or ingredients) have not yet been definitively isolated, the issue of studying cinnamon is problematic. There’s no way to assess the potency of any batch, which complicates any evaluation. And that may be a reason why the research with cinnamon is inconsistent and largely disappointing.
Even if you aim to lose 5% of your body weight, if overweight, you are likely to see a fall in your blood glucose levels back into the normal range but even then we can’t say diabetes has been reversed or gone away. These actions build-up the body’s ability to respond to rising levels but if you get sick, eat more carbohydrate or gain some weight, more than likely your blood glucose levels will be on the rise again into the diabetes range.
All of the above contributing factors don’t usually happen by themselves. Since the body functions as a whole, a problem in one area will usually correlate to problems in others. A combination of the factors above can be the catalyst for a full blown case of diabetes (or a lot of other diseases). While researchers often look at a single variable when trying to discover a cure for a disease, often the best approach is one that addresses the body as a whole. As with all diseases, the best cure is good prevention, but certain measures can help reverse disease once it has occurred.
This powerful herb promotes glucose utilization in the cells thus lowering blood glucose. It also prevents the liver from releasing more glucose into the blood stream, lowers cholesterol and triglycerides. Some people feel Gymnema Sylvestre is one of the most powerful herbs for treating high blood glucose – both type 1 and 2 diabetics. Also Gymnema Sylvestre may help rejuvenate beta cells in the pancreas thus helping heal the condition.
One of my patients, aged 58, had an initial hemoglobin A1c of 7.2%. She was taking oral hypoglycemic agents, statins, and proton pump inhibitors—the basic treatment for every diabetes diagnosis. The patient was 28 lbs overweight and worked long hours. She didn’t exercise, mostly ate a processed food diet, and was sleep deprived. The patient had a family history of diabetes, and ultimately her lifestyle expressed her genetic tendencies.
Second, hypoglycemia can affect a person’s thinking process, coordination, and state of consciousness. This disruption in brain functioning is called neuroglycopenia. Studies have demonstrated that the effects of neuroglycopenia impair driving ability. A study involving people with type 1 diabetes found that individuals reporting two or more hypoglycemia-related driving mishaps differ physiologically and behaviorally from their counterparts who report no such mishaps. For example, during hypoglycemia, drivers who had two or more mishaps reported fewer warning symptoms, their driving was more impaired, and their body released less epinephrine (a hormone that helps raise BG). Additionally, individuals with a history of hypoglycemia-related driving mishaps appear to use sugar at a faster rate and are relatively slower at processing information. These findings indicate that although anyone with type 1 diabetes may be at some risk of experiencing disruptive hypoglycemia while driving, there is a subgroup of type 1 drivers who are more vulnerable to such events.
Diabetes type 1 is caused by the destruction of enough beta cells to produce symptoms; these cells, which are found in the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas, produce and secrete insulin, the single hormone responsible for allowing glucose to enter from the blood into cells (in addition to the hormone amylin, another hormone required for glucose homeostasis). Hence, the phrase "curing diabetes type 1" means "causing a maintenance or restoration of the endogenous ability of the body to produce insulin in response to the level of blood glucose" and cooperative operation with counterregulatory hormones.
Curcumin is a bright yellow chemical produced by the spice turmeric, among other plants. Curcumin seems to have multiple benefits for diabetes symptoms. It has been shown to be a marked inhibitor of reactive oxygen species that promote oxidation damage in cells. Curcumin lowers inflammatory chemicals like tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and that’s good because TNF-a causes insulin resistance and irritates fatty livers. Curcumin can reduce another pro-inflammatory chemical called NF-KB. The above-mentioned actions provide a benefit in diabetes protection and reduce the risk of developing diabetes symptoms and complications. Curcumin has also been shown to enhance pancreatic beta cell functioning and reduce fatty liver deposition. It reduces high blood sugar, A1C, and insulin resistance. It was also shown to reduce the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, and that is a higher risk in diabetic patients than in nondiabetic patients. A good dose is 200 to 3,000 mg a day.
Over a period of years, you went from pre-diabetes, to diabetes, to taking one medication, then two then three and then finally large doses of insulin. Here’s the thing. If you are taking more and more medications to keep your blood sugars at the same level, your diabetes is getting worse! Even if your blood sugars get better, your diabetes is getting worse. This is unfortunately what happens to virtually every patient. The body is already overflowing with sugar.
Even if you don’t have any underlying glucose issues, testing your blood sugar occasionally will help you pin point which carbohydrates you tolerate well and which you don’t. It can help you have a better understanding of your body’s reaction to foods and take control of your health. It is also an accurate alternative to the pregnancy test for gestational diabetes, so talk to your doctor if you’d prefer to test yourself, though you may have to explain your reasons!
Another popular ingredient in the Indian spice rack, curry leaves help to stabilize blood glucose levels and impact carbohydrate metabolism. An Indian study published in International Journal of Development Research studied in detail the effects curry leaves have on diabetes type 2. According to the research data, curry leaves contain a phytochemical that can help control blood sugar level in patients with Diabetes type 2 by reducing fasting and postprandial blood sugar level. Diabetic rats given a dose of about 12gm /day for a month revealed that curry leaves may treat diabetes by influencing carbohydrate metabolism and improving liver and kidney function. Also, the amazing antioxidant properties of curry leaves can boost pancreatic cell production, thereby improving insulin function.
The medical professionals at the Diabetes Treatment Center at Desert Springs Hospital Medical Center provide inpatient and outpatient evaluation, treatment and ongoing education for adults with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, as well as pre-diabetes conditions. The interdisciplinary team includes certified diabetes educators and nurses who work closely with patients' primary care physicians to work toward a common goal — to help patients lead longer, healthier lives.
In addition, a strong partnership between the patient and the primary healthcare provider – general practitioner or internist – is an essential tool in the successful management of diabetes. Often the primary care doctor makes the initial diagnosis of diabetes and provides the basic tools to get the patient started on a management program. Regular appointments with the primary care physician and a certified diabetes educator are some of the best things a patient can do in the early weeks after a diagnosis of diabetes. Upon the diagnosis of diabetes, the primary care physician, specialist, or endocrinologist will conduct a full physical and medical examination. A thorough assessment covers topics such as:
Evidence linking hepatic insulin sensitivity to intraorgan triglyceride content has been steadily accumulating. In insulin-treated type 2 diabetes, insulin dose correlates with the extent of fatty liver (35), and in turn, this is associated with insulin sensitivity to suppression of hepatic glucose production (36). Decreasing the fat content of liver is associated with improvement in insulin suppression of glucose production and, thereby, with improvement in fasting plasma glucose (20,23).


Peter Harris, international sustainability director at UPS, discusses the role of e-cycles in the successful implementation of alternative, sustainable logistics in cities…
In 1907, two teenagers with one bicycle between them started a business running errands, shuttling notes and telegrams and making home deliveries by foot and by bike. Eventually, their fledgling messenger service became what is now UPS.
More than a century later, we are back on our bikes. More specifically, electrically-assisted cycles (e-cycles).
Equipped with battery-powered electric motors and customised, modular load containers, UPS e-cycles allow us to service dense city centres more efficiently. Whether with three wheels or four, these e-cycles are a growing part of our fleet of more than 10,300 alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles deployed worldwide.
European cities seeking climate-friendly solutions to emissions and congestion are eager to keep commerce flowing sustainably. UPS is now working with city stakeholders on more than 30 such logistics projects in cities around the world.
In a road race, riding in a pack formation allows everyone to progress faster. Likewise, partnering with city stakeholders and other organisations helps propel sustainability.
Shifting gears in European cities
To meet ambitious sustainability goals, address growing emissions concerns and minimise traffic congestion, European cities need innovative infrastructure and transportation solutions.
Some are limiting the number of delivery vehicles in dense areas, restricting delivery times to only an hour or two each morning and even rerouting and closing off roads to add cycle lanes and expand green spaces for pedestrians. In continued efforts to curb the spread of coronavirus, city governments have banned cars and trucks on certain streets to give pedestrians and cyclists more room to stay physically distanced.
The UPS e-cycle is perfect for navigating dense urban areas. Our riders operate from locations called ‘eco hubs’ positioned around the city, which receive package deliveries early in the day.
The riders make multiple stops within a small geographic radius while the e-cycles are narrow enough to travel on cycle lanes and side streets — and don’t block traffic or require large parking spaces. These zero-emission vehicles consume less energy than motorised vehicles, reducing congestion and emissions. Brands and consumers alike whom are committed to reducing their environmental footprint appreciate the environmental benefits and more flexible delivery options.
Piloting e-cycles in Germany
UPS first deployed Cargo Cruiser e-cycles in Hamburg in 2012 to serve pedestrian-only zones. Now our cycles have replaced virtually every UPS diesel vehicle in its downtown area. Today UPS uses dozens of e-cycles across Germany.
In 2019, we replaced four collection and delivery vehicles with e-cycles in the city of Mannheim. The testing site of the world’s first bicycle in 1817, Mannheim has invested in sustainable energy policies encouraging renewables and electrified public transport.
It has created and connected green space that wraps around and crosses the city. The Mannheim Green Logistic Park initiative diverts heavy traffic away from the city. In Mannheim, UPS deploys two types of e-cycles and a cycle trailer with e-support, working in conjunction with leading suppliers such as Rytle and Nuwiel.
Heidelberg, where residents make more than a quarter of their commutes by bike, is becoming even more bicycle friendly. Heidelberg is expanding its extensive network of bike paths and express cycle routes to surrounding municipalities.
Delivery zones in the inner city are open to trucks only between 10am and 11am, so UPS started a cycle delivery model with the support of the local government. UPS has one e-cycle in Heidelberg now, and the hope is to eventually add more to deliver to the entire city on bike.
Research institutions are critical to our success. Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, a major research organisation, invited UPS to participate in a study on sustainable logistics and traffic flow that will help us innovate in tandem with the local government.
A unique partnership with Trinity College in Dublin
Campus environments — where thousands of potential customers live and work in a concentrated area — are ideal for e-cycle delivery. The University of Dublin’s Trinity College allotted UPS the space to build an eco hub on campus, from which students and staff can also collect their parcels from storage lockers at any time of day.
Our partnership goes beyond everyday package delivery. UPS is creating research and educational programs for Trinity College’s young environmental leaders and offering students internships across Europe.
These e-cycle delivery jobs attract students who need flexible schedules and can ride in the morning or evening. Unlike collection and delivery vehicle drivers, riders do not require special licenses, which in turn significantly reduces the time spent onboarding new employees.
Another urban eco hub in Dublin enables UPS to use fewer delivery trucks in the city centre. Established with the help of a consortium, including Enterprise Ireland and Dublin City Council, we built a hub that helped us replace a number of conventional diesel vehicles with low-emission, electrically-assisted e-cycles, easing congestion and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by up to 45%.
In particularly dense areas, we use e-walkers, electric motor-powered cargo boxes without pedals, which travel alongside a UPS helper on foot. We developed these in partnership with another of our suppliers, Fernhay.
UPS knows e-cycles are not the singular solution to the challenges discussed above. However, they are an important spoke in the wheel of innovation.
The successful implementation of alternative, sustainable logistics in cities will depend on collaboration between academia, governments and business.
Albert Einstein put it well: “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.”

If you have lost a baby or early pregnancy loss, spreading awareness is recognized by displaying pink and blue ribbons. I will show you how to create magnetic handmade ribbons, honoring your precious baby.
This craft is not difficult and could be given to grieving parents as a remembrance tribute or Love Memorial™ for their baby.
Trace paper or thin paper
Something to cut on
White, Pink or Blue yarn
Stickers (blue and pink)
Glitter (blue and pink)
You will find that other materials will work just as well. These are just suggestions. This craft project will take no more than 2 hours, not including drying time.
On your piece of trace paper, sketch out a ribbon. You may even find one to actually trace, being the desired size. It doesn’t have to be perfect, we can adjust later.
Now darken the ribbon, outlining the shape.
Flip the trace paper over onto your piece of cardboard or another sturdy board. Go over the ribbon with your pencil so the image is now on the cardboard.
Lay the cardboard on a cutting surface. Gently take your exacto or razor blade to cut out your babies ribbon. Don’t worry about rough edges.
Take a nail file to smooth the edges. It won’t really matter because we will cover it later. I am just a perfectionist at times.
This is where we personalize the ribbons for our children. Yes, the colors should be pink and blue pastels, but doesn’t need to be a solid color. The season your child passed, their zodiac sign or gemstone, the nursery color, and other elements can help you choose stickers reminiscent of your precious baby. Make sure half is blue and the other pink. Let the stickers hang over the sides, we’ll fix it. Turn the ribbon over and take your exacto blade or scissors to trim off any excess sticker.
Place your ribbon on a paper plate of your choice. I favor the elephant style plates. This is done to catch any excess glitter, not to waste an ounce. You may want to place a small amount of glue on the plate and mix in a drop of water. This consistency is easier to work. Any areas not covered with a sticker, paint with glue. Only do one color glitter at a time so they won’t mix. Both the glitters I have used are mostly white with hints of blue or pink. Sprinkle the glitter and gently tap off into the plate and return to glitter container. Now do the same for the other side.
Now choose a yarn that is thick enough to completely cover the edges of the cardboard. You want to start this process when you have uninterrupted time. Begin the yarn at an intersection, shown above. Carefully glue and push the yarn onto the glue. This will take a few minutes.
If you want to seal the ribbon for protection, paint on the decoupage substance and let dry for a few hours. Turn your beautiful ribbon onto the reverse side to glue on magnets.
October is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month, with the 15th being the actual day. If creating this craft is not possible, ribbons are available for purchase on the Internet.
Enjoy making your angel baby’s ribbon. We are creating the awareness our children deserve.

Instagram’s effects on teen girls will be investigated by Congress
Congress is currently investigating Instagram over information that suggests the company is aware of its potential risks to teen girls.
Senator Richard Blumenthal and Marsha Blackburn, members of a consumer protection panel from the Senate Commerce Committee, have announced an investigation regarding the statement released by Instagram on Tuesday.
The two lawmakers stated that they’re working with “a Facebook whistleblower” and now intend to seek documents and witness testimonies from the company concerning the reporting.
“It is clear that Facebook is incapable of holding itself accountable. The Wall Street Journal’s reporting reveals Facebook’s leadership to be focused on a growth-at-all-costs mindset that valued profits over the health and lives of children and teens,” the lawmakers said. “When given the opportunity to come clean to us about their knowledge of Instagram’s impact on young users, Facebook provided evasive answers that were misleading and covered up clear evidence of significant harm.”
Several house lawmakers also condemned Facebook regarding the reported facts. Republican Senator Gus Bilirakis also introduced a measure allowing the Federal Trade Commission to investigate and act upon “unfair and deceptive acts or practices targeting our children’s mental health and privacy by social media,” as an amendment to the $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package advanced by the Democrats. Unfortunately, the amendment did not pass.
Several Democrats, including Senator Ed Markey (D-MA), wrote a letter on Tuesday addressed to Facebook, asking that the company immediately cease its initiative to release an Instagram app designed for kids.
The Democrats argued that “Children and teens are uniquely vulnerable populations online, and these findings paint a clear and devastating picture of Instagram as an app that poses significant threats to young people’s wellbeing” as part of their letter.

Bond markets have been supported by some market-friendly data and while Fed speakers were again mixed, it was the more dovish remarks that captured attention.
Markets Today: US pays out whilst UK digs in
You might have expected a positive market response as the US politicians reach agreement on a fiscal stimulus bill, particularly as Europe became the latest region to approve a vaccine.
Analysis: Old England is Dying
- Market start the week struggling to look through virus news to the sunny uplands of 2021
- Oil down sharply hurting NOK, GBP down as a third of the UK goes into lockdown and Brexit deal not yet tied up
- AUD and NZD down on risk sell-off, but everything now turning around
- $900bn US fiscal deal awaiting ratification, but markets had largely ‘bought the rumour’
- Australia preliminary Nov. retail sales expected +2% but estimates range from 0.9% to 7.0%
Old England is dying, Still he sings an empire song, Still he keeps his navy strong, And he sticks his flag where it all belongs, Old England is dying – The
Apologies for the sombre title to round out our 2020 song choices, but unfortunately apt given latest UK developments, not so much the continued absence of a UK-UK post-Brexit trade deal as the reportedly ‘out of control’ new COVID strain in the UK and resulting severe lockdowns that impact more than 16 million people in the south of England and have all but ruined Christmas for many of them. Besides, It’s one of the best songs from one of my favourite bands – I’d been singing it to myself on numerous occasions for the 20 years since it was first recorded in 1985 and prior to escaping the Old Dart in 2005. The vinyl copy still gets the odd airing in Sydney 15 years on. Certainly UK development have overshadowed the positive news of agreement to a ~$900bn US fiscal support bill to see a sizeable sell-off in risk assets, lower commodity prices (oil especially), support for the USD and weaker currencies across the board, including time spent back below 0.75 on AUD/USD – albeit we have seen a pretty significant intra-day turnaround across most markets in the last few hours,
To currencies first for a change and while the AUD got off on the wrong foot at the Wellington market open yesterday, it was notable as we went through the day that the NZD was faring equally badly; indeed the AUD/NZD cross has spent a little time above 1.07 overnight, its best since 9th November. So while the weekend new of covid outbreaks Sydney’s northern beaches was very unwelcome news, its market impact has so far been minimal. Bear in mind in this respect that the northern beaches population of some 280,000 represents little more than 1% of the Australian population, compare to over 5 million or 20% of the population in Melbourne. That said, it’s possible to argue that the news was also negative for the NZD in so far last week’s optimism towards a trans-Tasman travel bubble being established early in the new year and which would be something of a boon to the New Zealand tourism industry, have evidently suffered a significant setback (even if, as our BNZ colleagues like to remind us, Aussie tourists are particularly tight-fisted compared to other international tourists whenever they visit bro’Town.
In truth, the origins of the bulk of the weakness in both currencies yesterday probably lay outside both of Australia and New Zealand’s borders, the grim news regarding COVID infections in the UK – and elsewhere it has to be said, including the US, has forced markets to question prior optimism that with vaccines starting to be rolled out, they can readily look through the near term economic damage being wreaked by latest social distancing strictures and which of course may now last longer than previously discounted.
Elsewhere in currencies GBP has been Monday’s biggest lower, GBP/USD spending time below $1.32 having been above $1.36 as early as last Thursday. Virus news aside, the passing of another weekend without news of a post-Brexit EU-UK trade deal has had a depressing impact and where the (public) rhetoric from UK PM Johnson continues to suggest the government in nonplussed as to whether there is or isn’t a deal by 31st December, Johnson lamenting differences over law enforcement mechanisms as well as fishing rights in his latest utterances. We (and for the most part markets) continue not to take Johnson at his word here, and indeed GBP/USD has just revisited $1.35 as we type, albeit this looks to be part of a broader resumption of USD selling and where the Bloomberg BBDXY index is now almost back to flat on the day.
Equity markets are also enjoying a turnaround, with loss for the S&P500 pared to just 0.3% having been down over 2% early in the New York session. Washington is currently in process of approving a $900bn fiscal relief package which includes $600 payments to most people (excludes high income earners), $300 per week aid for the unemployed who don’t ordinarily qualify for benefits, rental assistance for tenants in arrears and a whole host of other spending initiatives. The package id due to be voted on today by the House, Senate and signed into law by the President if all goes to plan. Being largely discounted at the end of last week, follow-through support for risk asset Monday has been notable by its absence, though it will doubtless be getting some of the credit for the progressive recovery in US stocks off their opening losses. Earlier Monday, the Eurostoxx 50 ended with a loss of 2.7% with similar sized losses for both the German Dax and France’s CAC40 while the UK FTSE suffered a smaller 1.7% loss, probably because of the currency fall.
Bond market have seen yield lower cross the board, US 10-yr Treasuries down to 0.88% at one point from close to 0.85% on Friday, but along with the broader market rebound are now almost back to unchanged on the day. UK gilts finished their day 4.5bp lower t 0.25 and German Bunds down 0.7bp at -0.58%.
Finally commodities saw oil take a sizable hit (4% or close to $2) in conjunction with a whole host of fights from the UK to Europe and elsewhere being cancelled, though have recovered about 70 cents of these losses since. Base metals were also lower (copper and aluminium both by around 1.7% in LME trade).
Preliminary Australian retail sales figures for November (11:30 AEDT) are expected to show 2% rise according to the median economist estimate, fuelled in part by the fuller re-opening of the Victorian economy, but note that forecasts range from 0.9% to 7.0% (NAB 5.5%) so the chances of a significant surprise relative to the medium are obviously high.
Plenty of data points elsewhere in the world but not of it top tier. The US has the Conference Board December Consumer Confidence readings (expected 97.0 from 96.1) November Existing Home Sales seen -2.2% after +4.3% in October, the Richmond Fed December Manufacturing Index (expected at 12 from 15) and the third reading of Q3 GDP (seen unchanged at 33.1% saar).
Europe has German consumer confidence(of some note given the recent spike in infection rates and renewed distancing restrictions) while the UK has its final estimate of Q GDP (last at 15.5%) and November data for public finances, expected to show a monthly budget deficit of GBP26.8bn.

While the speed and breadth of the spread of infection was unknown, it was apparent that the outbreak of the new coronavirus, named COVID-19 by the World Health Organization (WHO), would cause considerable disruption to economic activity in China.
- Coronavirus contagion in China has hit the economy and effects are being felt globally
- Monetary stimulus by Chinese and Asian central banks has bolstered economic growth
- Politics in the US and Europe are generating plenty of risks to economic activity
The ripples from China’s economy travel far, and although its Asian neighbours will probably be the most affected, a large, sudden drop in Chinese activity also affects the rest of world, from commodity suppliers in emerging markets to all economies linked through the world’s integrated supply chains.
In assessing the market’s steady response – complacent or resilient – the global economy was showing clear signs of rebound and strength, with February’s Global Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) figures, and importantly the new-orders component, picking up at last.
Also, it is apparent that Chinese policymakers are willing and able to step in and provide support. And some central banks in Asia have already eased in response to the impact, with others quick to put out statements saying they are watching and ready. So it seems that a v-shaped economic recovery from the downward lurch is the consensus view, and that growth lost should be clawed back in the coming quarters.
As ever, there are plenty of head and tailwinds buffeting economic activity. And plenty of risks, mostly difficult to measure – such as the outcome of the US election. It seems most investors are pricing in the re-election of Donald Trump, although everyone will be watching the polls and gauging the risks of different, perhaps more progressive, outcomes.
Europe could still surprise on the downside, with some particularly weak economic data from Germany and Italy. Politics in both countries are complicated, with the surprise resignation of Christian Democrat party leader Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, not long ago considered a worthy heir to Angela Merkel.
Fitch has put Italy on negative outlook, pointing to the coalition’s “political divisions and differing policy views” as directly contributing to political uncertainty.
The ECB reviews its monetary policy strategy
In January, European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde announced the launch of a comprehensive review of the bank’s monetary policy strategy, which would engage with all stakeholders and “be guided by two principles: thorough analysis and open minds”. The review is expected to be concluded by the end of this year.
The last review was in 2003; the latest has been widely welcomed. Relations within the governing council (GC) had become more fractious and divided as Mario Draghi’s term as president drew to its end. Lagarde will surely be hoping that the collaborative process will draw her colleagues closer together again.
Although the scope of the review is as yet unknown, elements likely to be involved include the formulation of inflation targeting, reviewing current ‘unconventional’ tools and their potential side-effects such as the negative interest rate policy, and quantitative easing (QE), as well as looking to new areas such as a central bank digital currency or helicopter money, or moving towards modern monetary theory, for example. And Lagarde has already made clear her view that climate change should become an important feature for monetary policy.
One question that may arise is whether the EU will include housing costs in the harmonised index of consumer prices (HICP) measure of inflation, and implications for inflation readouts. Owner-occupied housing (OOH) costs are usually a significant expenditure for consumers and the US, UK and Japan all include those costs in their inflation indices.
Initial studies, using historical data, seem to be pointing to a muted effect on headline HICP of 20-30bps. As a pro-cyclical element of inflation, though, it is possible that it could generate higher peaks and deeper troughs in inflation reads.
The ECB in 2018 rejected an index which included OOH, not least because it was deemed too hard to gather reliable data quickly enough. Given that members of the GC have been recently voicing their desire to see it included, it is likely this year’s review will look at ways of building an appropriate system that generates data that is both robust and timely.
The US Treasury’s quarterly refunding statement revealed details of its proposed new 20-year issuance due to start in May, and for which it anticipates “strong demand”. With a trillion-dollar deficit to fund, and low prevailing interest rates, there is little surprise at the Treasury’s plans to tap ‘new’ points along the curve.
While relieved that the Treasury ‘listened’ to market opinion and did not opt for issuing ultra-long debt, some participants are, however, wary. The Treasury’s decision to swap some T-bill issuance to make room for the 20-year could, some believe, add to liquidity concerns in the nervy funding markets by highlighting the ongoing decline in the free float of T-bills.
Federal Reserve vice-chair Randal Quarles recently addressed concerns about the US central bank’s balance sheet policies generally. As well as debating the appropriate level for reserves, given the recent market dislocations, he sought to assure that the Fed was serious in its aim tackling those funding market worries.
In the longer term, the Fed would like to scale down its balance sheet, remaining consistent with the “ample reserve requirement” at all times, so that it could expand it once more in a future downturn. Quarles suggested that, despite the stigma associated with its use, it is healthy banks which should be using the discount window.
China’s presence in the main global bond indices continues to grow, with the JPM GBI-EM Global Diversified index including the bonds from 28 February 2020. Given the size of China’s bond market, this is a huge, strategic change in allocations for both emerging markets and developed markets.
The uncertainties stirred up by the spread of Covid-19 has seen the dollar broadly strengthen, with weakening in Asia currencies and the commodity currencies both in emerging and developed markets, and the Canadian and Australian dollars falling. Although the Reserve Bank of Australia has recently come out more hawkishly than expected, the downward pressures on the Australian dollar, from the impact and uncertainties of China’s virus epidemic as well as the devastating bushfires, may keep the currency on the weaker side.
Although Chinese policy efforts seem to have had reasonable success in keeping the dollar-renminbi rate relatively stable, further significant economic damage from Covid-19, could generate more downward pressure on the Chinese currency .
As the dollar strengthens, might there come a point when the Trump administration, in this election year, turns its attention on pushing it lower? The new currency rule unveiled by the US Department of Commerce in February appears to have switched responsibility for foreign exchange policy from the Treasury to Commerce.
Under the new rule, policy-driven currency devaluation is to be re-categorised by the US within ‘illegal subsidies’, a status that could then trigger the implementation of World Trade Organization-sanctioned remedies such as tariffs.

Chandigarh, June 6 (IANS) Punjab Cabinet Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu, who is at loggerheads with Chief Minister Amarinder Singh, skipped a Cabinet meeting on Thursday and declared later that he cannot be taken for granted.
This was the first meeting of the Cabinet after the Lok Sabha elections, and the Chief Minister set a deadline for the completion of his government’s flagship programmes within six months.
A defiant Sidhu said he can’t be taken for granted.
This is the second time in a week when Sidhu, the Local Government Minister who was in the city, boycotted a crucial meeting in evident protest.
Earlier, Sidhu was absent from the Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meeting chaired by Amarinder Singh here last week.
Even as the cabinet meeting was in progress on Thursday, Sidhu presented to the media at his residence a list of what he said were his ministry’s achievements.
He refuted charges against him of poor performance.
Sidhu provided “facts” to prove that the Congress performed well in the Lok Sabha elections in the urban areas of Punjab too.
He made it clear that he cannot be taken for granted as he had been a performer throughout his life — be it in cricket, showbiz or politics.
The strife between the cricketer-turned-politician and the Chief Minister is not new.
On several occasions, Sidhu has said that Congress President Rahul Gandhi was his ‘Captain’, reportedly irking Captain Amarinder Singh, a retired Indian Army officer popularly referred to as “Captain’.
The war of words between the Chief Minister and Sidhu intensified when Amarinder Singh blamed Sidhu for the Congress’ poor performance in the state’s urban areas and said his actions during the parliamentary elections had not only harmed him but also Rahul Gandhi.
The cause of the provocation was Sidhu’s controversial remarks on the sacrilege issue. He also blamed the Chief Minister for denial of party ticket to his wife from Chandigarh.
Referring to Sidhu’s remarks on the investigation into the sacrilege cases in Bathinda, the seat the Congress lost to Akali Dal’s Harsimrat Kaur Badal by 21,772 votes, the Chief Minister said the Minister evidently did not understand that a Special Investigating Team (SIT) had been set up by the Assembly.
The Chief Minister had also reiterated that Sidhu’s ‘yari and jhappi’ (friendship and hug) with the Pakistani Army Chief would not be tolerated, especially by Indian Army personnel, who were being killed by ISI-backed terrorists.
Thursday’s meeting took crucial decisions, including changes in Cabinet portfolios, insiders told IANS.

1. MAYBE SHE’S JUST NOT ‘THE ONE’
“I think that guys exercise discretion just like girls do. The whole commitment-phobia thing was likely just made up by butthurt girls who thought they were ‘the one.’”
2. WHY DON’T WOMEN EVER HAVE THIS PHOBIA?
“If this is a real phobia, why does it only seem to happen to men? I’ve never heard it applied to woman. In those cases, she’s just being understandably picky. No, I don’t think it’s a real thing. It just means you have standards.”
3. FEAR OF DYING ALONE IS STRONGER
“Yes, fear of commitment is a real thing, absolutely. But I think the prospect of dying alone, hooked up to tubes and wires in some hospital with no one to visit you and hold your hand, is far more terrifying than being yelled at because you forgot to take out the trash. So I’m afraid of commitment, but I’m more afraid of dying alone.”
4. THE EMOTIONAL RISK IS TOO HIGH
“A man’s great struggle in life is to break away from that initial humiliating dependence on his mother. I think the sex drive—and all the la-dee-da bullshit about love—is strictly to nudge you toward reproducing. The real deep psychological fear men have isn’t of being lost in love, it’s of being ruled by their moms again. Adult males have good reason not to want to be treated like boys for the rest of their lives. Or maybe I’ve been reading too much Freud.”
5. FEAR OF SAMENESS
“I’m sure I can get on people’s nerves, but good God in heaven, I can’t imagine ever wanting to be with the same woman forever, every day, for the rest of my life. Every morning you wake up and see that same face? She wears the same set of pajamas day in and day out? The same voice? Same body? FOREVER? Yes, I’m deathly afraid of that. If that’s commitment phobia, I have a nasty case of it.”
6. CAN WE STOP CALLING EVERYTHING ‘PHOBIC’?
“Can we please stop calling everything ‘phobic’? I guarantee you there aren’t that many people running around the world scared to death of everything. Just because I don’t want to do something doesn’t mean I’m afraid to do it. Maybe some guys are afraid, I don’t know, but not all of them. If you’re asking me, man-to-man, whether over the course of the rest of my life I’d rather have sex with one girl or with a thousand girls, you’re an idiot for even asking.”
7. I PREFER FREEDOM TO SLAVERY
“When a man gets married, he becomes a financial slave for life. People need to learn the difference between a phobia—which is, by definition, an irrational fear—and a justifiable fear of becoming a wage slave who has to pay alimony or child support for the rest of his life. I prefer a no-commitment arrangement, and the girls I know are all OK with that. So no commitment for me, but I would like a beer just for taking the trouble to answer your question.”
8. IT’S KNOWN AS A ‘MARRIAGE STRIKE’
“Right now, the world is like Lysistrata in reverse: Instead of women withholding sex, men are avoiding marriage. The cards are stacked against men these days. There is literally no incentive to get married. There are too many downsides and not enough upsides. Divorce, alimony, gossip, public sympathy—the rules all lean heavily in favor of girls in all of that. Guys are justifiably afraid of marriage because they can’t see what’s in it for them. So it’s a fear, yeah, but a justifiable fear. If you made it an even playing field again, guys would call an end to our collective marriage strike, I promise you that. It’s just that when I tie the knot, I don’t want it to be around my neck.”
9. HUMANS AREN’T MONOGAMOUS
“No, ‘commitment phobia’ is just some made-up word that doesn’t exist in the animal kingdom. You ever heard of a chimpanzee afraid to make a commitment? No, he’s out tapping as much ass as he can! There’s been study after study proving that love and attraction only last a year or two at best—it has to do with chemicals in the brain—so the idea that it’s unnatural to seek multiple partners over your lifetime is what’s truly irrational here.”
10. COMMITMENT FLOWS NATURALLY FROM LOVE
“Commitment isn’t something you need to work at. If you’re truly in love with someone—deeply in love, with every cell of your body—you don’t have to try. It’d be a tremendous effort not to be committed to them. In fact, it would be unthinkable. So it’s not really a fear of commitment as it is a lack of interest.”
11. FEAR OF PUSHINESS IS MORE LIKE IT
“In a lot of these cases I’ve seen, the guy is totally into the girl, but for Christ’s sake, it’s only been three months and the girl is already picking out wedding dresses! When someone wants to do a full-court press on you, it reeks of desperation, and the natural response is to pull back a bit and reassess the whole situation. It’s not a phobia. It’s simply good judgment.”
12. OH, YOU MEAN FRIENDZONING?
“‘He’s afraid of commitment’ is only something that a girl who you’ve just friendzoned would say. It’s just a nice way of telling yourself that someone doesn’t want to be with you—‘Oh, he has a fear of commitment.’ That’s a lot easier on the ego than, ‘Oh, he didn’t want me.’”

Traditional ornamental lathes relied on sophisticated mechanical machinery to control the location of cuts.
Today, we can use computers with stepper motors and lead screws to achieve a greater degree of accuracy.
The hardware is much simpler, more reliable, and much lower cost.
When properly applied, the use of a computer to move the position of the cutters or the work does not reduce
the artist's contribution to the final piece of art.
Rather than using a mechanical "analog computer", we use a digital approach.
I've been using a computerized ornamental lathe for several years.
However, my current design is not easy for someone to replicate unless they are able to deal with the complexities
of writing their own software.
There have been a number of stand-alone software applications that I've made available to help with
plain turning as well as ornamental turning.
For more information, see software.billooms.com.
More recently, I've started to make smaller portions of the software available.
My goal is to help others begin to utilize computer-control without needing any programming experience.
The first of these projects is a simple computer-controlled indexer for any lathe.
Rather than using an index wheel, a computer-controlled stepper motor is linked to the spindle of the lathe.
This gives the effect of an index wheel with any number of holes.
More importantly, the movement from one index position to the next is controlled by the computer so that there is
very little risk of losing count or indexing to the wrong position.
This is especially useful for ornamental turners, but can also be used for those doing open segmented work.

After two years into the Covid-19 pandemic, life returns to normal in Bangladesh. In the last two years, the government had to impose nationwide strict lockdown and restrictions several times to check the spread of novel Coronavirus. All the public and private offices and educational institutions except emergency services had remained closed during the lockdown period. No one was allowed to come outside of the houses without any emergency.
Like other foreign countries across the globe, Bangladesh went through a difficult crisis in 2020 and 2021 due to the prevalence of the pandemic. The government stood with humanitarian support beside the country’s destitute and vulnerable people hit hard by the Covid-19 pandemic to ease their hardship in the difficult time. On the other hand, the Covid-19 vaccination campaign continues smoothly through inoculation of eligible citizens with the first, second and third doses of Covid-19 jabs in the country. So, the country has been able to control three waves of coronavirus due to multiple initiatives including expansion of the vaccination programme.
The crisis is nowhere close to end as
various new variants of Covid-19
may spread across the globe
During the miserable days of lockdown and virus panic, normal life and even emergency services were hampered in almost everywhere in the world and Bangladesh was not an exception. When situation improved, the lockdown and other restrictions were lifted. As soon as the lockdown and other restrictions were withdrawn, activities of all the government, semi-government and non-government offices, autonomous bodies, banks and financial institutions started operating in full swing. Besides, shopping malls, markets, shops community centres, tourism and recreation venues and resorts are also running their business following health safety guidelines and other rules set by the government. All these have been possible because of tireless and pragmatic steps taken by the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina-led Awami League government.
Bangladesh on Wednesday reported no Covid-19 death for second consecutive day in the past four months as the country recorded zero coronavirus death for first time in late November last year since the pandemic began on March 8, 2020.
The pandemic could not hit the country hard as the government took all-out measures to protect most vulnerable people and businesses. The government gave stimulus packages to various sectors and financial assistance to the people (during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic) to ease their lives and livelihoods alongside keeping the country’s economy moving.
However, the crisis is nowhere close to end as various new variants of the coronavirus may spread across the globe. Therefore, we all will have to avoid crowd, use masks whenever we go outdoors. Everyone will have to be more responsible to ensure his or her own protection alongside their family members and the neighbours.

If you happened to leave more than £150,000 worth of gold bars in a Swiss train, you can now come forward to claim it.
Authorities in the central city of Lucerne have said a package containing bars worth about 182,000 Swiss francs was found in a train that arrived from the northern town of St. Gallen in October, and efforts to find the owner failed.
The bars were then seized by Lucerne prosecutors. Regional authorities confirmed on Tuesday a statement from law enforcement over the weekend saying that any claimant has five years to report “justified claims” of ownership.
The incident is eye-popping even for a wealthy Alpine country with a high cost, and standard, of living.
In a similar incident three years ago, authorities in Geneva turned up wads of cut-up €500 notes that were mysteriously jammed into the toilets of three restaurants and a bank in separate episodes. The shredded notes were once worth tens of thousands of euros.
At the time, Swiss investigators said the money appeared to have come from a safe deposit box in Geneva belonging to unidentified Spanish women.
A lawyer for the women appeared at a local police station, according to the Tribune de Genève, but only offered money to pay for plumbing work at the bank and the three restaurants.


text: This is an English version of Father Kino's important map that disproved the theory that California is an island. This was the first map to accurately depict the region, in particular the relative positions of the Colorado and Gila rivers and the correct location of the rivers, valleys and mountains of part of Sonora and Arizona. Kino's publication, first issued in 1705, was intended to disprove the island theory, but instead actually fueled the controversy and thus the map was reprinted many times. This scarce map is essential to any collection of California or the American Southwest. This version was engraved by Hulett. Plate IX, Vol. V, P. 2 page 192 is in the upper left border.
