7 Ways Drinking Water Improves Dental Health
There are many steps you may already take in protecting your dental health, such as brushing your teeth, flossing daily, and having regular check-ups.
Your dental health is important since it not only affects the quality of your smile but, also, your overall health. Besides offering a star smile, a healthy mouth will also allow you to eat well, to breathe well, and to express yourself well, and it ensures fresh breath.
There are many steps you may already take in protecting your dental health, such as brushing your teeth, flossing daily, and having regular check-ups. You may not realize that drinking water is also important for your dental health.
Here are ten reasons why you should be drinking clean water to protect your teeth and gums.
Drinking Water Strengthens Teeth
Drinking water, especially tap water enhanced with fluoride, is recommended by dentists to strengthen teeth. Fluoride has been scientifically proven to strengthen teeth and prevent cavities. It does this by strengthening tooth structure and promoting remineralization. Drinking water with fluoride in it is an easy way to take care of your dental health.

Tagged: pseudo warp
September 26, 2020 at 10:44 pm #179734Josephine TobinParticipant
I am a newish weaver and am following the instructions for the mohair blanket.
I made a 36″ long pseudo warp and have it spread out in the raddle to 45″. In order to place it in the raddle I had undo all the chaining and run a lease stick through the front loop of the warp to hold the ends in place (uncut and still as a loop).
Question # 1: Is there a better way to work with a short pseudo warp? I cannot see this demonstrated in a video, but perhaps I missed it.
Because the warp is only 36″ long, there isn’t enough length to wind it onto to back beam before threading the heddles and sleying the reed.
Question #2: How do I stabilize the warp so that the front ends stay the same length while I am working on it (not shift around on the back warping rod)?
I am wondering if this is a common issue based on the instructions to make a short pseudo warp, or if I have missed out on a lesson!
Thank you in advance,

Hi Josephine – have you read “Dummy (Pseudo Warp)” in the Knowledge Base? Jane explains using a pseudo warp in detail in that article. If that doesn’t explain things, let us know. Also, the length on your pseudo warp depends on your loom – a yard might be plenty on a table or small loom, but you have to be have it long enough to be secured on the warp beam and still have enough length to bring it all the way through your reed, with enough to trim and tie it on.
September 27, 2020 at 2:48 pm #179770Josephine TobinParticipant
Yes, I did read article, thank you. Unfortunately it did not answer my questions. Jane mentioned: “You can always use a little duck tape at the back to secure things….I have done that a million times.” if the dummy warp isn’t long enough to wrap around the back beam. Could you please explain how to do this? I am warping a 45″ Leclerc Nilus floor loom. I guess I misunderstood the instructions for the mohair blanket saying to make a short 27″ – 36″ dummy warp.
Thank you for any continued suggestions!
September 27, 2020 at 9:25 pm #179785SandraKeymaster
What I might consider doing is to do what Jane shows us in the blanket video, and that was that she cut her dummy warp and tied it tightly onto the rod attached to the warp beam. Lash it as usual so it won’t bow and carry on threading and denting as usual. You’ll then be ready to tie on your special warp. That way it won’t matter if it doesn’t completely go around the warp beam.
BTW – have you read the article – “Tying a new warp onto an old warp”? It might be useful when you get to tying on your new warp.

Dating alvarez banjos
The Japanese Iidas were some really well-made instruments and those along with Alvarez, Ibanez, etc.
Though the intonation is more exact when using a spike at this position, traditionalists enjoy the bone nut on their pre-war banjos and we do use this method on our Golden Era series banjos.The neck blank of a Goodtime banjo is 3 pieces of maple glued together to form the same configuration.) We can think of the neck as falling into three 3 sections. The front of the peghead has a PEGHEAD OVERLAY which can be made of ebony, or some other material. This is called “the nut”…and I mentioned it in our last article on .THE PEGHEAD (Also commonly known as the head stock of the banjo.) The very top, where the banjo tuners are located, is called the “peghead”….because banjos tuners/tuning machines are sometimes called “tuning pegs” and it’s at the “anatomical” top of the neck…hence “head.” The back of the peghead is one with the neck “blank” and as such consistent with the tonal wood that the banjo is going to be made of. The angle of the nut slot is quite critical and any binding in this slot can oftentimes be taken care of by putting some #2 pencil lead in the slot and moving the string back and forth to lubricate the area.They actually have a very gentle bow (or Mona Lisa smile as I like to call it).This allows you to play without having buzzing occur when you fret the strings. There is one at the fifth string tuning peg position to hold the string in place and you can have more of them for alternate tunings as well; usually at 7,9,10 for A, B, and C tuning.
This gives the neck stability and also allows the player to adjust the “relief” of the neck.

Crickets, Owls, Railway Trains
I don't "blog" anymore unless I read a book with an owl in it and have to put it on my compulsively updated list of books with owls in them, or for some other reason. So remember when Megan Abbott and I were reading the third volume of Simon Callow's biography of Orson Welles? We've skipped back to the first volume now, in which Callow parenthetically lists some of the traditional gramophone-produced sound effects in theatrical productions; you can see them right there in the title of this "post." You know what else is in this book? H.V. Kaltenborn. I am sure you will recall that for a while there it seemed as if H.V. Kaltenborn - I've never heard of him either - would appear in every selection of the now defunct (?) Doomed Book Club. In conclusion, I am very happy that this book has an owl in it because it gives me an excuse to tell you, as long as I am required to be here, that within these covers Callow describes Bob Hope as "soigné." That is a fair description of Bob Hope! Why, we see Hope here (above) in his green velvet smoking jacket from I'LL TAKE SWEDEN, which I never got to "blog" about (the green velvet smoking jacket, that is) because the day I "blogged" about I'LL TAKE SWEDEN destroying our television set was the day I stopped "blogging." You'll note that the monogram is "BH." His character shared his initials, probably at his command, probably so he could keep the jacket. Bob Hope was a notorious cheapskate, as you know from your obsession with this "blog," which no longer exists, obviously.

The insight reports Facebook provides to all businesses with pages continue to call users who “Like” the company “Fans”, despite the recent semantics change. But this is not an error – rather this can be taken as a signal that the language change does not mean any less commitment from users engaging with brand pages. The ability to become a “fan”, a “liker” or a “follower” are all just terms for the same thing – a social connection that allows businesses to share information and consumers to engage with those businesses. Thus this change should benefit marketers, by lowering the barrier for consumers to join a page, but still ensuring the same level of engagement between businesses and consumers.
Facebook posited that it made the change to create a more lightweight form of commitment for consumer users, however page owners and administrators will see little difference. A memo from Facebook about the change stated: “The purpose of this change is to maintain Pages’ powerful communication channels while making it easier for users to connect with pages.”
So what has really changed? “Likers” still receive notifications in their newsfeed about the company. Brands still appear in individual users’ info tabs, indicating that the user “Likes” them. Pages still have lists of “People Who Like” them. The only real difference should be an increase in the volume of consumers connecting with businesses. Marketers and businesses can achieve more social connections because the act of “Liking” something is inherently more psychologically acceptable than “Becoming a Fan” of the same thing. The level of interaction businesses can have with their social connections is the same, but fewer individuals will be deterred by the intensity of having to declare themselves a “fan”.
So the next time you open your Facebook insight report, don’t be surprised that you still have fans – this is merely a manifestation of the insight that your social connections are still just that, and will continue to be valuable for building your brand.

Millennials, Greatest Generation share savings strategy
Millennials have been defined as a tech-savvy, self-obsessed, entitled generation, but they have something in common with the World War II-era Greatest Generation.
The two different age groups are very similar when it comes to saving money.
“The biggest surprise was how conservative the group is,” said Ed Nasief, managing director of investments with UBS Financial Services Inc.’s Louisville office, referring to millennials. “It seems to fly in the face of everything we thought anecdotally. I thought they would look like exactly as I perceived them.”
But Nasief said the group of “computer-obsessed” investors are as conservative as those from the Great Depression era.
According to the recent “UBS Investor Watch,” which analyzes investor behavior, millennials are holding onto their cash and investing less. Millennials are defined in the report as 21- to 36-year-olds.
While the report said millennials are optimistic about their financial prospects, it also said they are skeptical about long-term investing as a way to get there.
Nasief said a telling statistic is what millennials would do with found money. They are more likely to pay down debt or hold the money, rather than invest it.
“Only 12 percent said they would invest found money in the market,” he said. “That’s a very emotional thing right there. I don’t know if they ever thought about what they would do with the money, (but) I think they’ve thought about what they would not do with the money.”
Several factors might go into the reasons why millennials are reluctant to invest, Nasief explained.
He said they might have been scarred by the market as they left school.

Last Sunday, in Fort Worth, Hung Nguyen died around 2 a.m. after being involved in a seven-car collision on the bridge from the southbound East Loop 820 to eastbound East Freeway (Interstate 30), due to icy road conditions.
While standing next to his 2001 Honda and inspecting for any damage to his vehicle from the earlier crash, Nguyen and his car were struck by an on-coming vehicle that pushed Nguyen over the barrier, where he fell several hundred feet to the freeway below.
Police said that the pileup occurred due to icy conditions on the bridge, which initially caused two cars to collide after which a tow truck stopped to assist them. Nguyen’s Honda subsequently ran into the back of the tow truck while a black car crashed into Nguyen’s vehicle. With Nguyen outside his vehicle, he was struck by the sixth car which was then struck by a seventh car.
In Arlington, Texas police have stated that icy road conditions were also most likely a factor in the death of Paul Travis Smith, 36. That accident involved two 18-wheel tractor-trailers on Interstate 30 at Fielder Road.
In total, Fort Worth police reported 44 accidents on Sunday between midnight and 10 a.m. compared to 14 for the previous week, during the same time period.
In Dallas, 144 car wrecks were reported on city streets from midnight to 10 a.m. and 140 reported on freeways.
Unfortunately, auto accidents such as these can often be the result of poor weather conditions combined, in many cases, with a lack of judgement on the part of motorists. These accidents frequently occur in our local cities such as Irving, Southlake, and Arlington, TX, and can be quite catastrophic. If you’ve been involved in a Dallas metroplex or DFW area auto accident, you may wish to consult with an experienced local personal injury lawyer.
Our personal injury law firm will offer a free initial legal consultation on your potential personal injury case. If you, or someone you know, have been injured, you should immediately contact a Dallas, Texas personal injury lawyer in order to know your legal rights regarding compensation for medical expenses and lost wages.

A little over two weeks after Sheryl Sandberg's Lean In hit bookshelves, I walked into my first day at a new job.
It was very different from my previous job. The company felt huge. They had a kitchen filled with all the free food and beer you could ever dream of. And in my very first week, they had copies of Lean In available at the front desk that anyone could take.
I grabbed a copy and powered through it in a few days.
Today, I forget most of the details in the book -- except for one. I'll never forget Sheryl's lesson on the power of having other women support you in your career. These women should be there to bounce ideas off of, give you advice when you're lost, and actively celebrate your accomplishments with (and for) you.
When I first read Lean In, I had no idea what was in store for me at my new job. Two years later, I feel incredibly lucky to have found friends who support, help, and celebrate my career with me. Here are a few photos of just how lucky I got.
(Anum, Brittany, Rachel, and Amanda: Thank you.)

Vision Service Plan, Rancho Cordova, Calif., dropped the Strong Advisor Small-Cap Value fund as an investment option in its $110 million 401(k)/profit-sharing plan, replacing it with the Perkins, Wolf, McDonnell fund, said Walter Grubbs, vice president-human resources. Plan trustees felt it was their fiduciary responsibility to drop the Strong fund in light of the investigation into the company's mutual fund trading practices, Mr. Grubbs said.
"The important management changes and enhanced corporate governance measures being made at Strong will result in an even more robust institution that will continue to have at its core an enormous respect for the responsibility our clients entrust in us to manage their investments," Drew Wineland, Strong spokesman, said in a statement.
The plan offers 14 investment options. CIGNA, the bundled provider, assisted.

As we look back on the week that was in WWE and try to determine just what was the best match, we have the benefit of the fact that there was a pay-per-view event during that time.
Generally speaking, a pay-per-view event offers a better in-ring product because the Superstars are given much more time to go at it inside the squared circle.
Superstars who thrive on putting on a top-notch performance always show up on pay-per-view, and at WWE Payback, there was no shortage of that. In fact, the top two matches of the week came out of this event.
Honorable Mention: The Shield vs. Evolution at WWE Payback
At just about every event on the WWE calendar, a match this good would easily be the best of the night.
The young, hungry trio of The Shield would be taking on three of the biggest names in WWE history for the second straight pay-per-view event. Only this time, the six-man tag team match would be an Elimination match contested under No Holds Barred rules.
Between them, Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista have a combined 47 title reigns (counting every championship they've held).
After defeating Evolution at Extreme Rules, The Shield would certainly go down this time, right?
For over 30 minutes, these two teams brutalized each other. One of the most surprising facts is that neither team suffered an elimination of any kind for most of the match.
We've all seen Elimination matches before, and it comes down to a one-on-one confrontation in the end just about every time.
But then came the most surprising fact of all—The Shield pulled off a clean sweep.
Twenty-seven minutes into the match, Batista became the first casualty, pinned by Seth Rollins after a spear from Roman Reigns. Just over one minute later, Dean Ambrose was able to take out Orton.
Not even the mighty Triple H could overcome the three-on-one odds that faced him, succumbing to The Hounds of Justice.
This was an excellent match, and a great way to close out the show and the feud between these two teams. While the events that transpired the following night on Monday Night Raw took things in a new direction, this match solidified all three members of The Shield as top stars for years to come.
Best Match of the Week: John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt at WWE Payback
Though some fans may have been disappointed that John Cena came out on top in this feud, they shouldn't allow that to affect their judgment of this match.
These two men put it all on the line in a Last Man Standing match at Payback.
Though Last Man Standing matches have become somewhat repetitive with WWE over the years as far as how they are laid out, these two men still managed to come up with some impressive stuff.
How about Cena launching the steel ring steps to the outside of the ring like a missile and taking out Wyatt? That was one of the best spots in WWE in years.
Though it is clear that there are to things Cena will never do in his WWE career—stay down for a 10-count or scream the words "I quit"—Wyatt still managed to put quite the beating on him.
Just when fans may have felt that this rivalry had ran its course, this match had to keep them thoroughly entertained.
The inclusion of Erick Rowan and Luke Harper as well as The Usos only made the match that much better. The two tag teams engaged in a wild table spot that had the crowd cheering.
The end of the match was clever as well. Cena used his Attitude Adjustment to put Wyatt through a piece of production equipment. He then tipped another piece of equipment on top of that, effectively trapping Wyatt inside to win the match.
This showed what it would take to keep Wyatt down, and while some may argue that he didn't gain anything out of feuding with Cena, it did bring him up closer to the main event scene, where he'll remain for some time to come.
Cena wasn't going to lose this match; it's just the way WWE does things. But putting all of that aside and just watching the match for what it was, fans were given an excellent contest.
This match wasn't just the best of the week—it may be the best of the year thus far in 2014.

Acoustic Emissions (AE) are stress waves produced by the sudden internal stress redistribution of material caused by changes in the internal structure of the material. Possible causes of these changes are crack initiation and growth, crack opening/closure, or pitting in monolithic materials (gear/ bearing material). Where as vibration can measure the effect of damage, AE is a direct measure of damage. Unfortunately, AE methodologies suffer from the need of high sample rates (4 to 10 Msps) and relatively immature algorithms for condition indictors (CI). This paper hypothesizes that the AE signature is the result of some forcing function (e.g. periodic motion in the case of rotating machinery). By using analog signal processing to demodulating the AE signature, one can reconstruct the information carried (e.g. modulation) by the AE signature and provide improved diagnostics. As most on-line condition monitoring systems are embedded system, analog signal processing techniques where used which reduce the effective sample rate needed to operate on the AE signal to those similarly found in traditional vibration processing systems. Further, by implementing another signal processing technique, time synchronous averaging, the AE signal is further enhanced. This allowed, for the first time, an AE signal to be used to identify a specific component within gearbox. This processing is tested on a split torque gearbox and results are presented.

Managers are more inclined to require jabs before office return
Nearly half of Canadians want vaccinations to be required prior to their return to the workplace, a new study has revealed. Released today, The Mental Health Index by Lifeworks found that 47% of surveyed individuals said they wanted "mandated vaccination policies for the return to the workplace."
Only 33% of respondents don’t want employers to require vaccinations for office return, while another 20% said they are unsure. Managers are 20% more likely to want mandated jabs prior to office return than non-managers, according to Lifeworks.
Paula Allen, senior vice president, research and total wellbeing at Lifeworks, added: “The pandemic created a lot of fear and uncertainly and right now we are seeing new fears and uncertainties as we are planning to return to the workplace. As employers are considering their return-to-workplace plans and policies, they should be aware that employees need to understand the consideration and support for their wellbeing as a part of the plan, and the tangible actions the employer is taking and that they can take.”
The report sought the responses of 3,000 Canadians based in Canada and are employed within the past six months.


It wasn't a vintage year for Broward County tourism, but all things considered it wasn't bad either.
A year-end summary of tourism activity in 2002 released on Tuesday by the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau showed a modest uptick in several measures.
Despite a drought of business travel that has punished lodging businesses nationwide, the Fort Lauderdale area managed to score a 1 percent increase in bed tax collections in calendar year 2002, to $15,975,075. The tax was also up marginally from 2000.
The nearly $16 million goes to support tourism marketing efforts. It is the bureau's share of a 5 percent tax added to every lodging stay, part of which also goes to support the Office Depot Center sports arena in Sunrise.
Because it reflects both occupancy and room rates, the bed tax is one of the most comprehensive barometers of tourism activity.
"What a great feeling to be growing again," said bureau president Nicki Grossman
A struggling economy limited the share of rooms occupied in 2002 to an average of 65.4 percent, down 2 percent from a year earlier.
The number of overnight visitors to Broward rose to 8,108,677 as travelers continued to use discount airlines to fly to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
The number of travelers was up 4.1 percent, as domestic visits jumped 4.5 percent and foreign visits increased 2.9 percent.
The bureau pegged visitor spending at nearly $5.1 billion, a 5.8 percent increase from 2001.
Most Broward hotel operators are uneasy, worried about a limp economy, the potential for war, and lost profits from 9/11. Despite the boost of a relatively cold and snowy winter up north, the industry remains on guard.
"There are few reasons to be optimistic until the uncertainty with the war passes," said Scott Berman, lodging analyst with PricewaterhouseCoopers, in Miami.

On Friday 13th November Deakin Criminologist Dr Kate Fitz-Gibbon delivered a plenary presentation as part of the University College Cork (UCC) one day conference, ‘Domestic Violence Laws and Processes: Effecting Change – Safeguarding Families (Exploring the Options in Ireland)’. The conference was organised by Dr Louise Crowley (School of Law, UCC).
Kate’s paper – Domestic Violence policy and reform in Australia – provided an examination of recent reviews and reforms of domestic violence policies across Australian state and territory jurisdictions. Focusing on the recent period since the 2014 declaration of family violence as a ‘national emergency’, Kate’s presentation summarised recent efforts at reviewing and recommending reform of responses to domestic violence in Australia, at a state and national level. In particular, the presentation provided an overview of what a ‘perpetrator-focused’ approach looks like in Australia and what might be the strengths and weaknesses of adopting such an approach.
Other speakers involved in the conference included Ailish Glennon (Irish Probation Service), Tom Meagher (White Ribbon Ireland), Dr Margaret O’Keeffe (Cork Institute of Technology) and Rory McCrae (Working with Men, Edinburgh).
The conference was attended by 120 attendees, including representatives from the Director of Public Prosecutions, domestic violence advocacy workers, police officers and probation services.
The conference was covered in the Irish Examiner on Saturday 14th November. The article, by Noel Baker, provides an overview of some of the key policy issues and opportunities for reform that were identified over the course of the conference. Kate was cited in the article advocating for greater judicial education on domestic violence.
While visiting University College Cork Kate also presented a lecture to the Masters Family Law students and Faculty.

Community Cultural Development
The Next Generation
Artist Rene Yung's presentation of this paper generated lively discussion at a forum of the Arts Loan Fund of Northern California Grantmakers, in October 2006. It was written just as Arlene Goldbard's new book, New Creative Community, was published. Although Yung refers to an earlier publication (Creative Community: The Art of Cultural Development, by Don Adams and Gold-bard, 2001), she touches on many of the same themes discussed by the authors of "The Art of Social Imagination" (page 27 in this Reader) and reveals how the ideas have been adopted by an artist in practice.
When I tell people that I work in community-based art, the typical response, including from well-educated professionals, is: "Oh you do murals!" And sometimes: "Is that like, social work?" And the really depressing one: "So you must be a volunteer?" And again, from gallerists I often get a pitying look like I have stooped to make my daily bowl of rice, or, currently, from some peers I get the opposite response: "Social Intervention! It's big right now!" This is not to denigrate the merit and importance of murals, social work, or volunteering, or to wax cynical about the art market. But it does point to a big problem facing community-engaged practice: a lack of public understanding and perceived value. This stems partly from the checkered history of community-based arts in this country and the different names the work came under; partly from the prevailing American perception of culture in general; and partly from the changing, hybrid nature of the practice itself.
In the Rockefeller publication Creative Community, Don Adams and Arlene Goldbard promoted the term "community cultural development" for community-engaged cultural practice. What I think is most important about this term is its framing, and the relation-ships between these three words. The perspective is framed around community — the larger context of a group of people with shared concerns and interactions — rather than around the practitioners as sole creators who create an impact on the community uni-directionally. The term “cultural” expands the approach to a broader range. People often have preconceived, narrow notions about what “art” is, whereas “culture” pertains to a range of “values, attitudes, beliefs, orientations, and assumptions” that may vary from community to community. Tom Borrup has compared culture to a computer's operating system — the system that gives people and organizations “the capacity to communicate and function.” This expanded cultural terrain is fertile ground for creative innovation.
In community cultural development, culture functions as a connector between the community and its development. It is a catalyst and channel for a dynamic process of development, both for the community and the collaborating practitioners. This definition situates the practice on its own terms as an exciting and potent cultural bridge and innovative form, rather than on the misconception of it as a compromised art form somehow “dumbed-down” by populist consort or an unscientific indulgence fringing social services.
As Adams and Goldbard also pointed out: community cultural development is a cultural response to social conditions. This is a key definition that summarizes the urgent timeliness and connective power of the practice. In my experience, community cultural development (CCD) can effectively and uniquely address cultural concerns that are imbedded in social problems, concerns that social institutions often are not set up to deal with. For example, in my collaborative project with a H.U.D. residence for low-income immigrant seniors in Seattle, the process of deep community engagement uncovered not only individual needs related to larger questions of aging and cultural marginalization, but also historical friction between Korean and Japanese residents and between different so-cial-economic classes within the same culture. By acknowledging and expressing the community's complex character, multi-faceted artworks integrated into the building architecture bridged these differences and created a new sense of belonging for the residents.
CCD can be both a “wedge” driven in to loosen social-cultural entrenchments and a bridge between and within communities. In that capacity, CCD also reintegrates art into society, not as capitulation to the policy trend that evaluates artistic legitimacy in quantitative social and economic terms, but as a sincere movement toward reanimating the vital link between the practice of creativity, the practitioners, and the people they live and work amongst. It is perhaps a twenty-first century re-visiting of the shamanistic integration of artists in earlier societies — indeed, it may express a hunger for deeper connection and a desire to actively contribute toward positive social change through the artist's chosen path.
In the five years since the publication of Creative Community, technological developments, globalization, and demographic and economic shifts have intensified social tensions and are reshaping the cultural landscape. Much has been written on the subject and the themes identified in the recent working paper from the Irvine Foundation on the arts in California (see Reader, vol. 17, 3) clearly also have an impact on community cultural practices. But as a response to social conditions, CCD practice is by definition encoded with its own parallel evolution and reinvention. It has a viral potential, in that sense, to take on the characteristics of a trend, not in order to fit in, but in order to gain entry and to initiate change.
This next-generation CCD has many of the same characteristics as the practice it evolved from and differs primarily in degrees of focus and in attitude. It is freely hybrid and cross-disciplinary, so that, for example, story-telling, a community garden, and media literacy might encompass related parts of the same process of community development. In a current project, I am exploring ways to develop inter-generational media literacy and youth employment as extensions of a public art project based on visual art and a digital archive of community narratives, in an urban planning context. Next-generation CCD is often layered and addresses complex social relation-ships, rather than a single thesis. It looks to sustainable community development, rather than a short-term project. I think a key difference of this work is its adaptive rather than resistant attitude. It is entrepreneurial, asset-based, and strategic, to match the moving target of changing social conditions.
In spite of the current “creative economy” buzz and the academic interest in arts and community-engagement as a field, community cultural development faces many challenges. Even as exciting innovations in it are taking place, there is a sense of beleaguerment, and especially among long-time practitioners, of battle fatigue. The blurred definitions of community-practice also blur ethical
considerations in working with the stuff of people's real lives in the community. Under-recognition presents obstacles in support and funding of this fluid practice in a genre-based tradition, and the unique case-by-case character of community contexts doesn't fit within the “best practices” model of award patterns. Additionally, the process-based, soft, qualitative emphasis of the practice confounds evaluation metrics.
Community-based art practice is at a critical juncture, full of potential, but facing serious challenges. I envision community cultural development as a field in its own right, uniquely poised to address the evolving complexities of current social conditions as a fluid, multi-directional approach that bridges cultural, social, planning, and design disciplines. I believe it can be most powerful as an integrated practice in the civic structure, equally emphasizing the highest artistic imagination and aesthetic standards, as well as the most powerful community development.
To achieve its potential, CCD must address its means of financial support and its piece-meal, product-oriented implementation. To improve communication with policy-makers and funders, it needs an appropriate evaluation vocabulary. To increase public aware-ness and understanding, national-level dialogue about community-engaged cultural work needs to be generated. And to support the continued growth of cultural developers, ethical training methodologies must be devised.

STOP THE MONEY PIPELINE!
On this 50th anniversary of Earth Day, April 22, 2020, and for the following three days, we’re asking people to join the national campaign to Stop the Money Pipeline — the flow of cash from banks and capital firms to fossil fuel developers.
Just since the Paris Climate Accords in 2015, big banks have invested $1.9 trillion in fossil fuels. (See the national Stop the Money Pipeline here for details on the three day’s events).
Many of those banks are familiar names locally. Chase, Wells Fargo, Citi (sponsor of Costco’s popular credit card). You may have insurance through Liberty Mutual (so does the Keystone XL pipeline), or a credit card through Bank of America (they’ve given $106 billion in credit to fossil fuel companies).
And if you’re personally able to invest, you may be doing so through Blackrock, which oversees huge investments in fossil fuels and deforestation projects — even as renewable energy outpaces fossil fuels in profit — see this article from last week.
Some local Stop the Money Pipeline actions are below. We hope you can join in.
How can you help Stop the Money Pipeline? Here’s a few ways.
Post a review of these companies on a review website.
You don’t need to be a customer to have an opinion on their destructive practices. Are we getting a good deal if we suffer climate disaster?
Here are some review sites:
Afterward, let the company know why you gave them the review you did.
What to say about these companies in a review:
Liberty Mutual: nearly 10 percent of its investments are in fossil fuels, with subsidiary Liberty Metals and Mining Holdings funding a new coal mine in Australia despite catastrophic recent fires. They insure the Keystone XL pipeline which threatens the Missouri River. Is that any way to insure our future?
JP Morgan Chase has been the biggest banker of fossil fuels. It loaned $196 billion for fossil projects after the Paris climate accords and was the leading lender for Canadian oil sands — the dirtiest source of oil on Earth. They also fund Keystone. Are these folks working for us, or just their wealthy friends?
Blackrock is the world’s largest asset manager overseeing $7 trillion. Despite a recent announcement that it would change course to promote sustainability it continues to invest in deforestation and fossil fuels, and on April 1, 2020, invested in Keystone pipeline. Are they talking out both sides of their mouths?
Wells Fargo has been the top investor in developing the Keystone XL pipeline which threatens the water supply of the Sioux and other tribes. The characteristic western-themed decor of their branches will help neither Native Americans nor cowboys if they lose the water they rely on.
Citibank has lent $129 billion to fossil fuel developers since the Paris Accords, including the Keystone XL pipeline. What happens to their customers when the loans can’t be repaid?
Bank of America lent $106 billion to fossil fuel development since the Paris Accords. This won’t help America or any other nation.
Write a letter to the editor
Local newspapers want to hear from you — so share your thoughts. You may want to review their letter guidelines, which you’ll find at the web addresses in parentheses.
North Coast Journal (https://posting.

Eureka CA 95501
email to: [email protected]
What you could say in a letter to the editor
April 22 will be the 50th anniversary of Earth Day. Are wildfires, massive hurricanes, extinctions and heat waves what Earth Day founders had in mind?
In 1970 our atmosphere had a CO2 level of 326 ppm. Now it’s 411 ppm. We’re heading toward climate disaster if we don’t stop the increase.
Much of that increase has been caused by investments in fossil fuel development by banks and capital firms, many of which also serve everyday Americans.
Humboldt residents use Wells Fargo, Chase, Bank of America, and Citibank for savings or credit card services. Liberty Mutual sells car and home insurance. Some people have investments managed by Blackrock. All of these are major investors in fossil fuel projects being developed now, like the Keystone XL pipeline to bring Canadian tar sands oil to the US.
Fossil fuel investments have underperformed other stock market investments in each of the past six years. Renewable energy is a better place to invest and won’t destroy the planet.
We can make a difference by demanding that companies that use our money stop destroying our future. For this Earth Day, a network of groups including Greenpeace, 350.org, Union of Concerned Scientists, and the Sierra Club are calling on people to take their personal business away from companies with huge investments in destroying the climate. It’s called the Stop the Money Pipeline.
Commit to moving your account if your institution doesn’t stop funding
Do you have an account with any of the companies? If so, please consider writing a letter asking them to divest from fossil fuels. Commit to changing to a different institution if they don’t. You can post your letter on social media after sending it to your bank or other firm. If you have already moved your account, cut up your old bank or credit card on video and post it to YouTube or Facebook.
350 HUMBOLDT URGES YOU TO JOIN YOUNG CLIMATE STRIKERS ON THE STREETS AND DEMAND AN END TO THE AGE OF FOSSIL FUELS!
Join the Global Climate Strike on 20-27 September: Global Climate Strike
350 Humboldt will rally on September 20 to support the global Climate Strike that has been initiated by youth the world over to focus attention on the climate crisis. This movement was sparked by Greta Thunberg, a Swedish teen who, for many months on Fridays, stood in front of Swedish parliament instead of attending classes, in order to bring attention to the urgency of climate change.
On Twitter, Greta Thunberg called on all of us:
“We need everyone to join us — companies, trade unions, schools, universities, organizations, etc. and of course, individuals.”
The Climate Strike will take place the week before the UN Climate Summit and is meant to amplify the vision of increasing action on climate change. According to the UN website:
“The race is on. It is a race we can win. It is a race that we must win.”
Youth groups in Arcata, including the local affiliate of the Sunrise Movement, will hold a rally on the Arcata Plaza starting at noon. 350 Humboldt will sponsor a sister rally at the county Courthouse in Eureka, 825 5th Street, from 3 to 7 pm.
What can you do to be part of the climate strike?
- Attend one or both of these local events. Come by bus or carpool, bike or walk.
- Write letters to the editor voicing your support for the strike.
- Call or write your representatives letting them know you expect action on climate change.
Extinction Rebellion, a global youth climate action organization, reminds us that while despair and eco-anxiety are reasonable responses to this emergency, it will not solve it – we need to turn that energy into action.
We wholeheartedly agree! Join us for this action!

Day 3: Martina’s Pick
Paris Red by Maureen Gibbon
April 1, 2015.
Paris, 1862. A young girl in a threadbare dress and green boots, hungry for experience, meets the mysterious and wealthy artist Edouard Manet. The encounter will change her and the art world forever.
At seventeen, Victorine Meurent abandons her old life to become immersed in the Parisian society of dance halls and cafes, meeting writers and artists like Baudelaire and Alfred Stevens. As Manet s model, Victorine explores a world of new possibilities and stirs the artist to push the boundaries of painting in his infamous portrait Olympia, which scandalizes even the most cosmopolitan city.
Manet becomes himself because of Victorine. But who does she become, that figure on the divan?
Intense, erotic, and beautifully wrought, Paris Red evokes the unconventional love story of a painter and his muse that changed the history of art.”
Kirsten’s Pick (Book lover, but not a blogger):
A Pledge of Better Times by Margaret Porter
April 14, 2015
For generations Lady Diana de Vere’s family loyally served England’s crown. But after King Charles II’s untimely death, her father firmly opposes James II’s tyranny. Charles Beauclerk, Duke of St. Albans—the late king’s bastard son by actress Nell Gwyn—also rebels against his newly crowned uncle’s manipulation. Secretly pledging to wed Diana, he departs for the Continent to become a soldier.
Political and religious turmoil bring about revolution and yet another coronation before Charles returns to claim his promised bride. As companion to Queen Mary II, Diana has followed her de Vere forbears into royal service. She expects Charles to abandon his military career after marriage, but he proves unwilling to join the ranks of the courtiers he despises and mistrusts.
In palace corridors and within their own household the young duke and duchess confront betrayals, scandals, and tragedies that threaten to divide them. And neither the privileges of birth nor proximity to the throne can ensure their security, their advancement—or their happiness.

text: Genomics England will sequence ~40,000 whole cancer genomes and matched germline DNA over the next 2-‐3 years. This represents a considerably larger collection of whole cancer genomes than any that currently exist, and will be of similar magnitude to efforts planned elsewhere in the world in the same time frame, including from the NCI and ICGC-‐2. There will be a GeCIP domain for each tumour type analysed by Genomics England, focusing on the genomic and clinical aspects of their particular cancer. We propose to establish a GeCIP with an aim to understand patterns of germline and somatic variation in cancer genomes across tumour types. We believe such a GeCIP would be exploring fundamentally different questions to individual tumour type domains, and would produce data that would assist the individual domains in their interpretation of the genomic data.

An abusive boyfriend who repeatedly assaulted his former partner has been jailed for three-and-a-half years.
Oscar Love, 23, was arrested following an incident at his home in Trinity Square, Margate, on Sunday 27 November 2016 when he threw a pint glass at his victim and beat her with objects including a wooden bed slat, a broom and a television remote control.
He also punched and kicked the woman before standing on her back and pulling her by the hair.
Officers later established it was the third time since the beginning of September 2016 that Love had assaulted his victim, and that on one occasion he had caused her to pass out by pinning her to a bed by her throat.
Love denied three charges of assault but was convicted following a trial at Canterbury Crown Court and sentenced on Thursday 11 May.
He was also found guilty of perverting the course of justice for contacting his victim while on remand in prison and attempting to convince her to retract the allegations made against him.
Investigating officer PC Leah Roberts said: “It can often be very difficult for people to escape from abusive relationships so I commend the victim in this case for having the courage to report the terrible offences committed against her.
“There is never any excuse for using violence against a partner or anyone else, and by doing so Oscar Love has demonstrated he is a danger to women and cannot be trusted to behave in an acceptable manner.
“Tackling domestic violence is one of Kent Police’s priorities and I urge victims to have the confidence to report incidents to us, safe in the knowledge we will take them seriously and provide them with all the necessary support they require.”

Africa World Airlines, which is fast becoming a force in Ghana’s aviation industry, have slated February 10, 2014 for the start of their third flight to Tamale from Accra.
The new late afternoon schedule to the Northern Regional capital would complement the daily 7:00am and 12:00 pm flights already on the route. Acting Heading of Commercial of the airlines, Ridwane Adamou, made this known to Myjoyonline.com last Friday.
Mr Adamou revealed that the new flight, which will depart from Accra at 3:00pm daily, is in response to the growing traffic on the route. The flight which will also depart from Tamale to Accra at 4:30pm, according to Mr Adamou, will offer convenience to business people who want to travel quickly to and from the Northern Region.
Ghana’s domestic air travel continues to improve. Figures from the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA), the industry regulator, indicates that between January and July 2013, total passenger uplift grew by 67% over the same period in 2012 — 450,674 passengers from Jan-Jul 2013, as against 270,516 passengers from Jan-Jul 2012.
Expressing optimism about Ghana’s aviation industry, Mr Amadou however pointed out inherent challenges that are likely to stunt the growth of the sector. Top among the challenges, according to him, was capacity to handle passengers at the country’s airports.
“The traffic is growing last year (traffic) for domestic flight was over 500,000 passengers, and it is expected to grow further this year. So we need to expand infrastructure at our airports”, he said.
He said even though there has been the addition of another boarding gate at the Kotoka International Airport, it still gets congested at peak hours.
He also described the state of the tarmacs at the country’s airports as deplorable, and called on Government to act quickly to improve the situation. According to him, the poor state of the tarmacs translates into high cost of operation, which is then passed on to passengers.
“When the tarmac is not in very good shape, it damages the tires of the plane so you would have to replace them more often”, he explained. However, Mr Amadou said AWA’s outlook for 2014 is to continue to grow like last year despite the challenges in the sector.
He said AWA will consolidate the domestic routes before moving on forcefully to sub-regional and international routes.
Africa World Airlines started operations in September 2012 and aims to develop a network of domestic and regional routes from its home base in Accra to create an airline with international standards.
Shareholders include SAS Finance Group (Ghana), SSNIT (Ghana), HNA Aviation Holding in (China) and China-Africa Development Fund (China).

LOCAL HOSPITAL ENTERS A NEW ERA
THESSALON - Tuesday's tea for the Thessalon Red Cross Hospital marks the last for the Red Cross in Thessalon and makes another mark in the history of hospital service in Thessalon.
Although the hospital will remain and service will continue as it does now, the hospital will, sometime this year, become known as the Thessalon Hospital.
During the next several months the hospital will be taken over by Sault Ste. Marie's Plummer Memorial Hospital. The only other major change beside the name will be that the head administration will be in the Sault rather than at Red Cross headquarters in Toronto.
The first known hospital in Thessalon was apparently the old castle, now torn down, but at one time situated on "Castle Rock" at the east end of Huron Street.
The castle was built in 1886 by Robert McEwen.
Some of Thessalon's senior residents recall that it was originally built for use as a tuberculosis sanitarium. However it became used as a general hospital as well.
This was probably somewhere around 1896 as old newspaper clippings claim that the first hospital was built at that time.
Sometime in the early 1900's a house was bought at the present hospital site and with an addition built on, this became the Victorian Hospital.
A 1903 Algoma Advocate, Thessalon's newspaper at the time, had an ad for the hospital with public wards costing $4 per week and private wards $7 per week. The maternity ward cost $10 per week and the operating room charged $1.50 to $3.00. Out nursing was listed at $1 per day and $1.50 per night.
It was in 1924 that the Red Cross took over operation of the 14 bed hospital. Senior citizens recall Doctors McCort, Baxter, Walker,Cameron, Spence, Taylor, Wallace, Sproule, Grigg, Snider and West.
On April 2, 1940 fire broke out in the hospital. Several patients were removed from the building including nine newborn babies. Estimated damage was more than $15,000. Some of the beds and equipment were salvaged although the building was destroyed.
A temporary hospital was set up in the Case home just a few doors away until a new hospital was built.
The newly built hospital was opened on March 13. 1942 with official opening ceremonies on May 12 of that year. The new building was much needed and proved to be a benefit to the town.
However, renovations became a necessity as with all buildings, and they began in 1967 at a total cost of $225.000. Town people, local businesses and industries donated a large sum of money for the project.
Today, the hospital is almost always filled to capacity and handles many emergency cases until they can be moved to larger centres such as Sault Ste. Marie.
With the change of hands, hospital care in Thessalon will continue as it has in the past, although the end of another era has been reached.

The scientists’ findings were staggering. They had predicted that providing organoids with a constant blood supply would allow the organoids to fulfill their true developmental potential, but they needed proof. By injecting a red fluorescent dye (which can only be detected under a specific wavelength of light using a special microscope) into the mouse brains, which could enter the blood stream, they were able to see the flow of blood through the blood vessels and saw that the blood vessels did indeed run throughout the organoids.
Did you know that Past Life Regression can help you find your path to self discovery? People may explore a past life to help them gain an understanding of some of the issues that they are facing in this life. Oftentimes, there is a connection, a pattern of behavior, that has its roots in another time and in another place. If you are having trouble dealing with your everyday situation, The New York Hypnosis Center can help you. Through past life regression therapy you can address u…
Just as stress can increase the risk for chronic diseases and other health problems, dealing with chronic conditions and poor health can increase the amount of stress one experiences. Stress also influences behaviors that affect health. Diet choices, sleep habits, and drug use are behaviors that are often negatively affected by stress (3). The APA’s 2011 survey showed that 39% percent of respondents reported overeating or eating unhealthy food because of stress, and 29% reported skipping a meal (3). In addition, 44% reported lying awake at night because of stress (3). On a positive note, 47% of respondents reported walking or exercise as a way of managing stress (3).
By this point, it seemed like organoids with a living blood supply looked more like a human brain in terms of structure than they had ever looked in a dish because they were able to survive long enough to develop properly. However, the question still remained as to whether the neurons and their synapses were functional. Neurons are electrically excitable cells that receive, process and transmit information through electrical and chemical signals. Calcium plays an important role in the transmission of electrical signals from one neuron to the next. Changes in the levels of calcium at the end of neurons can be measured using calcium-sensing proteins that light up red. When the scientists looked through the glass window in the skulls of the mice, they were able to see that neurons did have fluctuating levels of calcium, suggesting that neurons in the brain organoids were active. To be sure, they used electrodes to directly measure the electrical activity of the implanted organoid at different places and during different times of development, and discovered that the neurons were able to electrically stimulate each other and respond to stimuli from the external environment.The researchers had succeeded in creating fully functional brain organoids. Then things got really interesting.
We also know that in the United States, Christian fundamentalism is linked to science denial. Since science is nothing more than a method of determining truth using empirical measurement and hypothesis testing, denial of science equates to the denial of objective truth and tangible evidence. In other words, the denial of reality. Not only does fundamentalism promote delusional thinking, it also discourages followers from exposing themselves to any different ideas, which acts to protect the delusions that are essential to the ideology.
Working out is one of the most effective stress relievers. Researchers recently found that after spending 30 minutes on a treadmill, their subjects scored 25 percent lower on tests that measure anxiety and showed favorable changes in brain activity. If you only have time to do one thing for yourself, make it sticking to your workout routines. If you can't hit the gym or trails, even a brisk 30-minute walk at lunch or getting up several times a day to stretch and walk around will help relieve stress.
Finally, eating a diet consisting primarily of fruits and vegetables gives your body the nutrition it needs to be healthy. These fruits and vegetables are filled with vitamins and minerals, especially that magnesium and B6 we talked about earlier, and are low-carb and low-fat. Juicing is one of the fastest and easiest ways to get in a lot of vegetables without overwhelming your system. Although highly nutritious, fruits and vegetables take up a lot of room in your stomach and take time and effort to digest. It takes work to break down these fruits and vegetables, making you feel hungry quite often.
Yoga poses can also be great stress relievers. “Power posing” takes good posture one step further and can help you take control of your stress. “Consider using a superhero power pose to fight off stress,” Dr. Serani says. “Research states that posing like Superman—arms crossed, legs apart, and chin up—can bring forth feelings of strength.” In addition, some poses derived from yoga can also help you feel empowered (like the warrior pose) or calm (like the cat pose). “Shashankasana, or moon pose, can be done with buttocks placed on the folded legs and bending forward completely, head on the ground in front of the knees,” says Savita Joshi, E-RYT, MBA, B.E, a yoga therapist at Yoga Bharati. “During stress, one may stay in this pose longer with knees kept apart so that hips can lower down on to the heels and head touches the floor. This pose improves the blood circulation in the head region, and directs the vital energy toward it.”
In a 2016 interview, organoid pioneer Madeline Lancaster at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, England said of her 3D brain tissue structures, “Just to be clear, they are not really human brains.” At the time, she was able to recall 16 labs around the world who had adopted her technique. But did she foresee that a year later, other labs would be injecting them into mouse brains? If neural networks are at the root of consciousness and if we don’t fully understand how consciousness arises because of them, do we need to consider the ethical implications of producing brain organoids, which are becoming better and better at forming functional connections? The president of the Allen Institute for Brain Science in Seattle, Christof Koch, has concerns, saying in an interview last year “We are entering totally new ground here. . . the science is advancing so rapidly, the ethics can’t keep up.”
Binaural beats can be experienced in any float session you book. To this point in your floating practice you may, or may not, have heard of – or perhaps already experienced – binaural beats and their effective use of being a unique option/tool to listen to while in (or out of) the tank. But what exactly are binaural beats, how do they work and why choose to listen to them? All good questions, so here we go:
Anabel caught this Raikou after it was released following the battle against the Masked Man. She is said to have captured this Legendary Pokémon during her trip somewhere in Johto. Raikou has been with her since then and she continues to rely on it for all of her battles. Because it carries a large thundercloud on its back, it both allows a handier usage of its trademark Thunder as well as strengthen it.
Beta is the most common brain wave pattern: Beta brainwaves are produced when we are wide awake, alert, active and engaged in mental activity, usually involving more the rational, reality-oriented left hemisphere of our brain. When beta wave activity becomes very intense, our brain hemispheres become less synchronised. Beta state is required to function properly in your everyday life.
Targeted hemispheric changes: Some speculate that specific alterations in brain waves can be made on an individual basis. In other words, you can target one frequency in one hemisphere (via the right ear) and another distinct frequency in the other hemisphere (via the left ear). The left ear affects the right hemisphere and right ear affects the left hemisphere.
Location/Cultivation: American ginseng is native to the eastern United States and Canada, from the Catskill Mountains of New York and the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts, north into Ontario, west to Iowa, south to Arkansas and Kentucky, and east through the highlands of Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia. American ginseng requires rich soil with humus and full shade, and it prefers deciduous woodlands, especially those with tulip poplars. It takes a minimum of seven years to grow a mature root from the time of germination. Due to this plant''s endangered status, wild plants should be left alone, and you should avoid purchasing products labeled "wild American ginseng." The best American ginseng on the market is grown organically in the woods.
Beta stimulation: There is evidence that stimulation within the beta range can improve attention, measures of intelligence, relieve short-term stress, decrease headaches, and decrease behavioral problems. Some evidence even suggests that beta could decrease emotion-based exhaustion. Many people with slower frequency brain waves may benefit from regular beta stimulation.
From a brainwave entrainment effectiveness perspective, it’s my understanding that the response from isochronic tones stimulation starts to diminish over 30Hz and that 40Hz is about the limit for using them. So from what I’ve read on the topic a 100Hz beat wouldn’t work, probably because it’s too fast for the brain to process and synchronise with it.
We all deal with stress every day, and every day our bodies strive to adapt and stay balanced and healthy. In Adaptogens, authors David Winston and Steven Maimes provide a comprehensive look into adaptogens, non-toxic herbs such as ginseng, eleuthero, and licorice, that produce a defensive response to stress in our bodies. Formerly known as rejuvenating herbs or tonics, adaptogens help the body to “adapt” to the many influences it encounters. They increase stamina and counter the normal effects of aging and thus are becoming important tools in sports medicine and in the prevention and treatment of chronic fatigue and other stress-related disorders.
The stress of the mind control eventually causes Anabel to pass out, forcing Guile to use her as a hostage in order to force Noland to give him the Jirachi Report, which contains the secrets of how to make Jirachi grant his wish. When Noland is unsure about what to do, Guile attacks him and takes the report by force. Now knowing Jirachi's secret, Guile has Jirachi create a gigantic Kyogre made of seawater and uses it to flood the entire Battle Frontier. Anabel is taken to safety by Latios and later awakens to help the Frontier Brains fight off Guile's rental Pokémon while Emerald and the other Pokédex holders fight Guile. Eventually, Emerald and the Pokédex holders manage to defeat Guile and destroy the gigantic Kyogre monster. The day after, an injured Anabel and the other Frontier Brains congratulate Emerald for the hard work he put into saving everyone. Anabel then awards Emerald the Ability Symbol for his skills in traversing the Battle Tower.
This is probably the most popular choice of frequency. The theta state is a state of tremendous stress relief. The benefits associated with theta level relaxation include improved concentration, reduced hyperactivity and improved memory. While in a state of theta relaxation, one’s blood pressure, breathing and heart rate all slow to a much more restful and healthy level that promotes natural healing. During theta relaxation one may also experience vivid flashes of mental imagery as the mind opens to memories or subconscious information that is not available to the conscious mind during the normal waking state. The theta state is a very deep state of relaxation that is excellent for deep hypnosis and mental programming.
Hi Jason, thanks for all the uploads to youtube. I’ve been using them in work recently to help me concentrate and relax. I like the music tracks that you’ve chosen to overlay the tones. A couple of times in the last 2 weeks I’ve experienced the wavy pulse like sound, similar to the tones in my left ear. I wasn’t listening to tracks at the time or that day. It doesn’t last but it feels a bit strange. I wondered if I might have been listening to the tracks too loudly and that it was almost like a type of tinnitus. I’m curious to know if anyone has been in touch with you in the past to say they’ve had a similar experience?
It's a scenario played out every evening all over the country: Come home from work and start venting to your spouse or roommate about your day. Instead of creating a negative atmosphere the minute you walk in the door, try starting off the evening with your family or friends by exchanging good news. Something good every day, you just need to recognize it.
Exercise is one of the best ways to reduce stress. “When you exercise, your body releases endorphins, which are hormones that fight stress,” says Frank Lupin, MS, ATC, PES, a certified athletic trainer and a personal trainer for Coordinated Health in Bethlehem, Pa. “Exercise helps you get your mind off your problems and clears your head,” adds Thomas Plante, PhD, an associate professor of psychology at Santa Clara University in California. Here are eight different kinds of exercise that can heighten energy and provide stress relief.
Hello Jason, this is an unusually thoughtful discussion. Thank you for all your expertise and your kind manner of presenting and moderating it. I’m wondering if you have any experience with this: ever since I’ve been exposed to theta wave music, without headphones, I have found it irritating. And this is in spite of the fact that when I was first handed a CD by someone I knew well and trusted he was so confident I’d love it It didn’t occur to either of us that I might not. This happened again recently, which is about 10 years later, when I heard it playing overhead at an acupuncture clinic. I felt restless and even irritated, unable to zone out, which is unusual for me, during the treatment. I realized that the quality of my irritation was similar to what I’d felt listening to that CD a decade ago.So I asked if it was theta wave music and she said yes. The acupuncturist said that some people, but a vast minority, really dislike the music. She said that the few people who dislike it are not simply neutral, but actively dislike it. And she also said, but most people like it a lot. I’m just wondering what kind of factors might be present that would make a person feel so irritated by this music?
In addition to its calming physical effects, the relaxation response also increases energy and focus, combats illness, relieves aches and pains, heightens problem-solving abilities, and boosts motivation and productivity. Best of all, anyone can reap these benefits with regular practice. And while you may choose to pay for a professional massage or acupuncture session, for example, most relaxation techniques can be done on your own or with the aid of free audio downloads or inexpensive smartphone apps.
it says the following: “Running a delta sleep session throughout the night is not recommended as it can interrupt the normal sleep cycle”. I’ve been looping pure delta isochronic tones for about 5 days now, and have had quality sleep. Should I continue looping delta or should I let the videos play out without looping them? Will it will harm my health to do loop delta while I sleep?
I would like to share with you my experience after using EquiSync for three weeks. First of all, I am so amazed how fast I can put myself in a meditation state. During meditation, I feel some kind of a sensation I could not explain. I feel the rain dropping on my face and sometimes my legs. I feel the breeze of a tropical weather as if I was in the forest. I always sleep for a very short time at night and I have a very high sense of smell all my life. Using equisync I still sleep less, but am more relaxed when I wake up. During meditation, I can also smell the forest as if I am in the forest.

A few months ago I decided to test the ability of the “Equisync II” brainwaves therapy combined with other more traditional self-improvement programs and the results have been even more amazing to me. Currently in my mind I honestly believe this type of therapy can be a breakthrough, or simply the genesis of a new type of therapeutic techniques to correct several psychological, and behavioral human issues including depression, lack of organization, and self-esteem among many, many other possibilities.
Escape from a stressful situation by remembering a favorite vacation spot or a place where you feel cozy and at home. “Make sure to take note of every detail of your favorite spot—the more detailed your visualization, the more stress gets kicked to the curb,” Dr. Serani says. “For me, it’s a beautiful spot on the beach in my native Long Island. But it’s not just the white velvet sand of the beach or the teal blue ocean water; it’s the sounds of the surf, the tang of the salt water, the feel of the sun, the waves in the distance, and the imagined walk I take along the water.” You can combine this with a three-word mantra like “blue-ocean-water,” Serani suggests. Miller calls the visualization of a memory that evokes a positive association an “anchor.” She remembers watching beautiful sunsets in Costa Rica. “Now that I am back in the hustle and bustle of life, I will often pause and take mini-retreats, bringing up the anchored experience of inner calm that I felt watching the sunsets,” she says.
The effects are strongest while you are listening to the tones because your brainwaves are synchronized and tuned into the frequency range you desire at that time. After you've stopped listening the effects can still linger for a while afterwards. The timescale will vary from person to person and be affected by what you do after you've stopped listening.
Whatever your powerful mind believes to be true, it makes real in your experience. Your subconscious is a powerhouse of intelligence in action. It acts on your beliefs and perceptions. Theta binaural beats combined with subliminal messages reach deep into your subconscious mind to instill new ideas and beliefs. In a short time you’ll notice positive, even remarkable changes occurring in your life. The results are profound.
After the illness, I returned to school and found out that I couldn’t understand what the teacher was saying. Or what people were saying to me in general. Then I had difficulty comprehending math (which I was excellent at before). Then my reaction time just CRASHED. I was also classified by new teachers as “flighty”, “in a dream world”, “not mentally engaged”, as my brain began to stay in a state of sleepy-but-unable-to-sleep mode.
As soon as this session begins, the 10Hz frequency kicks in, helping to release your worries, brighten your mood, and encourage the release of the happy hormone, serotonin. This is followed by progressive patterns of euphoria-inducing beta frequencies, each building on the last, helping you to get you energized and feeling great. The uplifting background also gives this session an added kick. An excellent way to start the day – but don’t use it too late, as it may disrupt your sleep patterns.
