1- Hello, thanks for answering to our questions. What are you guys currently up to?
Greetings! We are eagerly awaiting the release of the debut Cursed 13 full length album called Triumf. Other than that it is business as usual with composing music, reading literature and whatnot.
2- First off, could you make some history of the band?
It is a long story but not to bore you I’ll give you the brief version. Cursed 13 started up back in the late 90’s by me and containing only me for several years. As I was occupied with other constellations, everything boiled slowly in the background. Demo’s were made and sold through the years but it wasn’t until 2009 when things started to seriously happen when we released the Cursed 13/Domgård split album. By then I had increased the line up by 100%. We were now two persons in the band. Cursed 13 grew into a full size band in 2012 when we decided to enter the stage at the Forlorn Fest in northern Sweden and this year we harvest the result of a long journey with the album finally out.
3- How could you describe your sound?
Many have tried and failed to put us in some specific folder. The foundation consist of old school black metal but we emphasise weight and aggression instead of sheer speed. Cursed 13 is a heavy loaded train that is bursting its way into the abyss.
4- What are the band’s main musical influences?
Well since I grew up with early 90’s black metal and also the 80’s bands I must say that the primary influence comes from there. Still, I listen to a variety of different genres which of course colour the way I write the music.
5- How is the feedback for your new album being?
We don’t know yet, it will be released within days. Those who had the chance to have a pre-listen have praised it though.
6- And are your personally satisfied with the final outcome?
Yes, absolutely. We have worked so hard on this and I’ve been like a fucking dictator upon each and every detail, not to let anything slip through without 100% approval. This is my proudest moment this far as a musician. This is the best I’ve ever made. And I’m just getting warmed up…
7- How could you describe this opus in just 3 words?
Black Fucking Doom!
8- How has the production process for your new release been?
The process has been slow, we started recording early 2013 and got finished by late summer. But on the other hand, some of the songs are 15 years old so in a way you could say that it took 15 years to get this album together. We recorded most of the album at our own studio which gave us the time to get everything the way we wanted it.
9- And how do you use to work on the song writing?
On this album the song writing process has varied a lot. The oldest songs were spawned ages ago and the newest one was completed just before recording. I have written pretty much all the music and the lyrics on this album and the difference, if you compare old songs with how newer ones are written, is that Dimman has been contributing with his excellent drumming on the newer material. He makes it easy to try new ideas and riffs and he adds a flavour to the songs which wasn’t there before. If he doesn’t get great ideas, it is not a great song.
10 – Finally, what are you near-future plans?
At this moment we are trying to promote the album as much as possible. We are also looking into the possibility to get on stage again.
Thank you for your time. You will find all the information you might want on our website or facebook page, be it CD’s, merchandise, bookings etc.

By Andy Na / June 10th, 2013
At Ubisoft’s E3 2013 press conference today, the publisher had announced two new iterations in the Trials franchise, Trials Fusion and Trials Frontier. The former is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC. PS3 and Wii U were not mentioned in the announcement, so there is still no word for release on either platform. Trials Frontiers is a mobile version, and will land on either iOS, Android, or possibly both.
The Trials series is a series of physics-based games where the player has to navigate a through a series of platforms and obstacles on a motorcycle. Stages vary from standard areas like rooftops, dirt hills, and the skies with all sorts of random platforming objects floating in the screen.
Trials Frontier and Trials Fusion appear to take place in a futuristic setting, which gives of room for plenty of interesting ideas, plus science fiction-themed stages and obstacles. From the looks of this game, it continues to portray a whacky setting involving motocross, and, rather, the results from failing. The series is known to have insane difficulty, and both Frontier and Trials may demonstrate more of that by its announcement.
Check out the trailer from the press conference below:
Both games are slated to release in 2014.

The Mets made Omar Minaya’s return official yesterday, but Jerry Manuel figures to take a little longer.
The club formally announced the expected – and somewhat controversial – decision to retain Minaya as GM at least through the 2012 season, with team options for 2013 and 2014. The initial three-year extension is worth nearly $4 million.
But Minaya admitted talks are going slowly with Manuel on lifting the interim tag as manager. The Mets have offered the popular skipper a two-year contract worth roughly $2 million, but he has yet to sign it. Minaya said the Mets, at least for the moment, don’t have anyone other than Manuel in mind as manager and remain optimistic the two sides will come to terms.
Although the Mets fell short on the final day for the second year in a row, Manuel got high marks from everyone involved for producing a 55-38 record (.591) and second-half turnaround after taking over June 17 after the firing of Willie Randolph.
“Right now, we’re focusing on hopefully getting Jerry on board,” Minaya said in a conference call. “We’ll continue to work with that. My hope is that we’re able to get that done.”
Manuel was not available for comment, but Minaya seemed confident a deal would get done.
“We’ll see how it ends up, but I always think of good things and good endings,” Minaya said.
Manuel does not have a contract for next season, and the contracts of all of his coaches expire at the end of this month. Minaya indicated there could be changes in the coaching staff in 2009 because Manuel will get to pick his aides.
“My policy is that the manager and general manager get together and select the coaches, but the reality is, the manager picks his staff,” Minaya said.
Mets chief operating officer Jeff Wilpon defended the decision to retain Minaya in the face of consecutive September collapses and final-day eliminations. Minaya, who took over as GM in 2005, has come under fan fire for several of his personnel moves the past two seasons and for the Mets’ inability to reach the playoffs this year despite a franchise-record $143 million payroll.
The Mets are 357-291 (.551) with just one postseason appearance in Minaya’s tenure, but the team pointed to record ticket sales and greatly improved TV ratings under Minaya’s watch for bringing him back.
“Omar’s our guy,” said Wilpon, owner Fred Wilpon’s son. “We believe in Omar and we believe that he has a plan that he wants to take forward and get us to where we need to be.”
Jeff Wilpon, though, admitted he and his father consider the repeated collapses unacceptable and said the failures already have prompted several “candid” meetings with Minaya and his staff this week. One outcome of those meetings was the decision to pick up first baseman Carlos Delgado’s 2009 option at a cost of $12 million.
“After some intense review this offseason, we’re going to find out why we fell short the last two seasons,” Jeff Wilpon said. “It’s up to Omar and his staff to correct that.”
Asked how that review might end up being reflected in the Mets’ roster next season, Jeff Wilpon was blunt.
“There might be some addition by subtraction,” he said.

The 49ers are apparently jumping in on the Aaron Rodgers sweepstakes.
Last month, Rodgers went on the Pat McAfee and declared his intention to play for the New York Jets and revealed that the Jets and the Packers were in negotiations to determine what a fair package would look like in a trade.
“So, at this point, as I sit here, since Friday, I made it clear my intention was to play and my intention was to play for the New York Jets. I haven’t been holding anything up at this point. it’s been compensation that the Packers are trying to get for me.”
It’s been nearly a month since Rodgers’ appearance on the McAfee show and the Jets and the Packers have yet to strike a deal.
According to FS1 host Craig Carton, the 49ers are ready to pursue a deal for Rodgers if the Jets-Packers trade negotiations fall apart.
According to Carton,the Niners trade package for Rodgers involves multiple third-round picks in this upcoming draft and a first-round choice in the 2024 draft.

“The franchise is the San Francisco 49ers. They have Trey Lance coming off a broken ankle. They’ve got Brock Purdy, who is not going to be throwing the ball until August or September, and they signed Sam Darnold. They do not have a quarterback right now, maybe Trey becomes a stud.”

Kenyans need conducive working environment – nominated MP Sakaja
Nairobi governor aspirant Johnson Sakaja has urged leaders to nurture and enhance the potential of all citizens. The Nominated MP said giving Kenyans a conducive environment to work in is the only way the citizens can achieve their full potential and play their role in nation building. Sakaja, who is among Jubilee aspirants who want to unseat Governor Evans Kidero, was speaking when he toured Grogan on Kirinyaga Road. “When I was here a few months ago, the situation wasn’t as dire as it is now. The harassment and inconvenience mechanics and traders at Grogan face is hindering many young people from earning a living,” he said. “Countless young people who contribute to this great nation’s economy earn their bread through their sweat and the skill of their hands. True leadership seeks to nurture and enhance the potential of each and every citizen.” Water CS Eugene Wamalwa has also expressed his interest in the seat.

Are All Hot Chocolates The Same? Let’s Get Chocolate Savvy This Easter.20th March 2018
There is nothing more satisfying then the comfort and deliciousness of drinking a hot chocolate. This decadent drink has a place in most of our hearts as a warming winter treat. A great hot chocolate can range from the velvety potions so sinfully thick that a spoon could stand in the cup, to the creamy and smooth easy drinking chocolate. Hot chocolate powders range from the nutrient packed and healthy, to the not-so-healthy options. This blog has been written to help you identify a healthy hot chocolate and inspire you create a delicious and indulgent homemade drinking chocolate at home..
Are all Hot Chocolates the Same?
Cacao, cocoa, and drinking chocolate … whilst all of these hot chocolate powders might taste great, there is a big difference between the ingredients and nutrition of a healthy and not-so-healthy hot chocolate variation. Exploring the different ingredients of a hot chocolate blend is the key to creating a healthy and delicious drink at home.
Cacao Vs Cocoa
The star ingredient of a hot chocolate is of course the chocolate and that originates as powder from the cacao bean. Cocoa powder, is also known as a cacao powder and is extracted from the cacao bean. The beans are processed to separate the cacao butter from the cacao bean and once the fat has been removed the beans are milled into a fine powder. The fundamental difference between cacao and cocoa is the way they are processed:
- Cacao powder is often referred to as the ‘raw’ chocolate, as it is processed in low temperatures and never heated above 45C. This means that all the natural antioxidants, enzymes and nutrients remain intact. Cacao is considered the healthier option.
- Cocoa powder is very similar to cacao but has been processed at higher temperatures. Cocoa powders still has some great health benefits but research has shown that once a cocoa has been heated above 70 C, the levels of antioxidant levels are greatly diminished.’
I would recommend using a low heat processed and high quality cacao powder as the base of your hot chocolate. Lower grade powders can be processed in a way that leaves little to no nutritional value left. It is also important to consider the source of your cacao. I always opt for a fair trade and organic powder to get the most health benefits.
Benefits of Cacao Powder:
Cacao is often painted as a hero superfood and rightfully so! This powder is packed with nutrients and vitamins that have great health therapeutics. Some of the health benefits of cacao are as follows.
- Cacao is a rich source of magnesium – a mineral essential for muscle relaxation, nervous system and cardiovascular health.
- Cacao is one of the highest containing antioxidant foods in the world. The antioxidant level of cacao can vary depending on the source and processing of the powder.
- Cacao is a fantastic mood booster. It contains feel good phytochemicals such as theobromine and phenethylamine, that act as mood boosters and anti-depressants.
Hot Chocolate Ingredients: It’s not just about the Cacao
Once you have established the quality of the cacao powder, it is important to turn your attention towards the rest of the ingredients that make up your hot chocolate blend. You can have the finest cacao powder but if it is blended with sugar, artificial additives, preservative and emulsifiers the nutritional value of the drink will be diminished. I encourage you to become a food detective and investigate each ingredient on the label. Avoid hot chocolate powders with very long ingredient lists or with the artificial or processed ingredients mentioned above.
The Ultimate Healthy Hot Chocolate Recipe
With all this discussion about cacao it is only fair to provide you with a glorious recipe to creating an indulgent but healthy hot chocolate at home. We are using our ORGANIC ARTISAN CACAO POWDER, A rich organic blend of cacao, coconut sugar, vanilla bean powder and Celtic sea salt. A delicious healthy handmade indulgence.

Panic attacks can occur due to number of disorders including panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, drug use disorder, depression, and medical problems. They can either be triggered or occur unexpectedly. Smoking, caffeine, and psychological stress increase the risk of having a panic attack. Before diagnosis, conditions that produce similar symptoms should be ruled out, such as hyperthyroidism, hyperparathyroidism, heart disease, lung disease, and drug use.
Anxiety disorders differ from normal feelings of nervousness or anxiousness and involve excessive fear or anxiety. Anxiety disorders are the most common of mental disorders and affect more than 25 million Americans. But anxiety disorders are treatable and a number of effective treatments are available. Treatment helps most people lead normal productive lives.
Anxiety attacks that occur while sleeping, also called nocturnal panic attacks, occur less often than panic attacks during the daytime but affect about 40%-70% of those who suffer from daytime panic attacks. This symptom is also important because people who suffer from panic symptoms during sleep tend to have more respiratory distress associated with their panic. They also tend to experience more symptoms of depression and other psychiatric disorders compared to people who do not have panic attacks at night. Nocturnal panic attacks tend to cause sufferers to wake suddenly from sleep in a state of sudden fear or dread for no apparent reason. In contrast to people with sleep apnea and other sleep disorders, sufferers of nocturnal panic can have all the other symptoms of a panic attack. The duration of nocturnal panic attacks tends to be less than 10 minutes, but it can take much longer to fully calm down for those who experience them.
i am disabled my husband is with me 24/7 so for the first time i had a attack this morning went to local jobcentre and normally we get seen on lower ground but for some reason it was changed to upstairs resulting in no wheelchair access so husband left me in waitingroom while he had his appointment….omg it started with sweaty hands then tingling my heartbeat was in my ears then came the fear and restlessness my head was swimming the sounds of everything was as if my head was under water and peoples faces were so close although not near me mouth kept watering.. the security man came to me asked if i was ok but i couldnt speak i was shaking and felt sick then came the most embarrising part my bladder released(i wear incontience pants thank god but small amount was leaked onto pants and wheelchair seat ) the security got my husband and we left to come home but omg i thought i was dying i havent had anything like that just normally its nervousness and dry mouth
Loved ones, as well as medical personnel, generally attempt to reassure the panic attack sufferer that he or she is not in great danger. However, these efforts at reassurance can sometimes add to the patient's struggles. If the doctors say things like, "it's nothing serious," "it's all in your head," or "nothing to worry about," this may give the false impression that there is no real problem, they should be able to overcome their symptoms without help, and that treatment is not possible or necessary. More accurately, while panic attacks can undoubtedly be serious, they are not organ-threatening. Therefore, for people who might wonder what to do to help the panic sufferer at the time of an anxiety attack, a more effective approach tends to be acknowledge their fear and the intensity of their symptoms while reassuring the person having the panic attack that what is occurring is not life-threatening and can be treated.
Once someone has had a panic attack, he or she may develop irrational fears, called phobias, about the situations they are in during the attacks and begin to avoid them. That, in turn, may reach the point where the mere idea of doing things that preceded the first panic attack triggers terror or dread of future panic attacks, resulting in the individual with panic disorder being unable to drive or even step out of the house. If this occurs, the person is considered to have panic disorder with agoraphobia.
Had my first panic attack today and wanted to be sure about what I was experiencing. I sat there crying hysterically, hyperventilating, chest shaking, my hands went very numb. Took me about 10 minutes to get sort of calm, sat in the shower for about half an hour afterwards to fully calm myself down. Every time I tried to focus on my breathing and taking longer breaths I would start hyperventilating again. Felt like I was choking, awful awful experience.
Panic attacks and panic disorder are treatable once the underlying cause of is identified. “Usually medical conditions and other factors (substance use or withdrawal from substances) are ruled out before making the diagnosis,” says Flo Leighton, psychiatric nurse practitioner, and therapist with Union Square Practice in Manhattan. Getting to the root cause typically takes a couple of sessions, says Leighton. Here are some options that may be recommended to you :
You do not need to be officially diagnosed with panic disorder to have an attack. Some people have only one or two panic attacks in their life and don't have panic disorder. Panic attacks are actually much more common than panic disorder. According to one Harvard Medical School survey, about 23 percent of people interviewed experienced at least one panic attack in their lifetime, while only about 3 percent of people experienced panic disorder in their lifetime. (1)
Paula had her first panic attack six months ago. She was in her office preparing for an important work presentation when, suddenly, she felt an intense wave of fear. Then the room started spinning and she felt like she was going to throw up. Her whole body was shaking, she couldn’t catch her breath, and her heart was pounding out of her chest. She gripped her desk until the episode passed, but it left her deeply shaken.
Agoraphobia is the fear of being in situations where escape may be difficult or embarrassing, or help might not be available in the event of panic symptoms. The fear is out of proportion to the actual situation and lasts generally six months or more and causes problems in functioning. A person with agoraphobia experiences this fear in two or more of the following situations:
From a cardiac standpoint, unless coincident heart disease is also present, the prognosis after having chest pain due to an anxiety attack is very good. However, all too often—especially in an emergency room setting where people who have chest pain due to anxiety attacks often wind up—doctors who rule out a cardiac emergency are likely to brush the patient off as having a minor problem of no significance; but panic attacks should not be brushed off.
If you’ve ever had a panic attack, you’ll know it can be both a terrifying experience and exhausting experience. Panic disorder is a diagnosis given to people who experience recurrent unexpected panic attacks—that is, the attack appears to occur from out of the blue. Panic attack symptoms include sweating, shaking, shortness of breath, feelings of choking, chest pain, and a fear of dying.
Treatment for panic disorder includes medication, psychotherapy or a combination of the two. Cognitive-behavioral therapy, a type of psychotherapy, teaches people how to view panic attacks differently and demonstrates ways to reduce anxiety. Appropriate treatment by an experienced professional can reduce or prevent panic attacks in 70 to 90% of people with panic disorder. Most patients show significant progress after a few weeks of therapy. Relapses may occur, but they can often be effectively treated just like the initial episode.
Test anxiety is the uneasiness, apprehension, or nervousness felt by students who have a fear of failing an exam. Students who have test anxiety may experience any of the following: the association of grades with personal worth; fear of embarrassment by a teacher; fear of alienation from parents or friends; time pressures; or feeling a loss of control. Sweating, dizziness, headaches, racing heartbeats, nausea, fidgeting, uncontrollable crying or laughing and drumming on a desk are all common. Because test anxiety hinges on fear of negative evaluation, debate exists as to whether test anxiety is itself a unique anxiety disorder or whether it is a specific type of social phobia. The DSM-IV classifies test anxiety as a type of social phobia.
Antidepressants are medications used to treat symptoms of depression but can also used to treat anxiety symptoms as well. In particular, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are the primary class of antidepressant used to treat anxiety. SSRIs commonly used to treat anxiety are escitalopram (Lexapro) and paroxetine (Paxil, Pexeva). SNRI medications used to treat anxiety include duloxetine (Cymbalta), venlafaxine (Effexor XR).
People generally can overcome panic attacks faster if they seek help after the first one or two, says psychologist Cheryl Carmin, PhD, director of clinical psychology training at the Wexner Medical Center and a professor at Ohio State University in Columbus. When you do seek help, your doctor or therapist will ask about your symptoms and the situations in which they arise, and might also recommend additional medical testing to rule out other health concerns.
Often, a combination of psychotherapy and medications produces good results in the treatment of panic disorder. Improvement is usually noticed in about two to three months. Thus, appropriate treatment for panic disorder can prevent panic attacks or at least substantially reduce their severity and frequency, bringing significant relief to 70%-90% of people with the illness. More than 18% of people who are assessed but not treated for this condition tend to relapse in less than two years. As these statistics indicate, access to appropriate mental health care is key to a positive prognosis for people who suffer from panic attacks. Therefore, it is imperative to alleviate the well documented economic and racial disparities that exist in having and using access to care. Combating other social disparities, like educational, employment, housing, and criminal justice, is also seen as being important to improving the prognosis for recovering from panic attacks and other health problems.
Anxiety disorders are associated with chronic life stress. Unpredictable, unrelenting, unresolvable stressors chronically stimulate the stress hormone system and cardiovascular system, and lead to states of constant increased activity. Biologically, the body has evolved to deal with imminent and concrete danger in the environment, rather than continuous stressors. Under normal conditions where chronic stress is low, exposure to a sudden threat activates the autonomic nervous system, i.e. increased levels of adrenaline and faster breathing, and racing heart rate. These reactions in turn trigger activation of stress hormones, such as cortisol. One of the effects of these stress hormones is to increase glucose levels in the bloodstream in order to respond to the imminent threat, so that muscles can be activated for the flight or fight response. Another effect of stress hormones is to supress the immune system, since processes such as healing and repair can wait until after the threat subsides. However, in someone with an anxiety disorder, where there is constant activation of these responses to everyday stressors, the stress hormone system loses its ability to control immune function, thus contributing to heightened systemic inflammation that increases risk for cardiovascular and even autoimmune disorders. Neuroscience and clinical research continues to investigate how anxiety disorders increase individual risk for developing physical health co-morbidities in hopes of identifying new treatments that may alleviate suffering from and prevent the development of these whole-body disorders.
Practice relaxation techniques. When practiced regularly, activities such as yoga, meditation, and progressive muscle relaxation strengthen the body’s relaxation response—the opposite of the stress response involved in anxiety and panic. And not only do these relaxation practices promote relaxation, but they also increase feelings of joy and equanimity.
Anxiety is a normal reaction to danger, the body’s automatic fight-or-flight response that is triggered when you feel threatened, under pressure, or are facing a stressful situation. In moderation, anxiety isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It can help you to stay alert and focused, spur you to action, and motivate you to solve problems. But when anxiety is constant or overwhelming—when it interferes with your relationships and daily activities—you’ve likely crossed the line from normal anxiety into the territory of an anxiety disorder.
• Palpitations, pounding heart, or accelerated heart rate • Sweating • Trembling or shaking • Shortness of breath or a sensation of smothering • A choking feeling • Chest pain or discomfort • Nausea or abdominal distress • Feeling dizzy, unsteady, lightheaded, or faint • Feeling detached from oneself or reality • Fear of losing control or of impending doom • Fear of dying • Numbness or a tingling sensation • Chills or hot flashes
Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder which primarily consists of the fear of experiencing a difficult or embarrassing situation from which the sufferer cannot escape. Panic attacks are commonly linked to agoraphobia and the fear of not being able to escape a bad situation. As the result, severe sufferers of agoraphobia may become confined to their homes, experiencing difficulty traveling from this "safe place". The word "agoraphobia" is an English adoption of the Greek words agora (αγορά) and phobos (φόβος). The term "agora" refers to the place where ancient Greeks used to gather and talk about issues of the city, so it basically applies to any or all public places; however the essence of agoraphobia is a fear of panic attacks especially if they occur in public as the victim may feel like he or she has no escape. In the case of agoraphobia caused by social phobia or social anxiety, sufferers may be very embarrassed by having a panic attack publicly in the first place. This translation is the reason for the common misconception that agoraphobia is a fear of open spaces, and is not clinically accurate. Agoraphobia, as described in this manner, is actually a symptom professionals check for when making a diagnosis of panic disorder.
In the past it might have taken months or years and lots of frustration before getting a proper diagnosis. Some people are afraid or embarrassed to tell anyone, including their doctors or loved ones about what they are experiencing for fear of being seen as a hypochondriac. Instead they suffer in silence, distancing themselves from friends, family, and others who could be helpful. Other people suffering from panic attacks don't know they have a real and highly treatable disorder. It is our hope that through increased education, people will feel more empowered to discuss their symptoms with a healthcare professional and seek appropriate treatment.
ACT is a type of CBT that encourages patients to again in positive behaviors even in the presence of negative thoughts and behaviors. The goal is to improve daily functioning despire having the disorder. It is particularly useful for treatment-resistant Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Depression. The length of treatment varies depending on the severity of symptoms.
Several drugs can cause or worsen anxiety, whether in intoxication, withdrawal or from chronic use. These include alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, sedatives (including prescription benzodiazepines), opioids (including prescription pain killers and illicit drugs like heroin), stimulants (such as caffeine, cocaine and amphetamines), hallucinogens, and inhalants. While many often report self-medicating anxiety with these substances, improvements in anxiety from drugs are usually short-lived (with worsening of anxiety in the long term, sometimes with acute anxiety as soon as the drug effects wear off) and tend to be exaggerated. Acute exposure to toxic levels of benzene may cause euphoria, anxiety, and irritability lasting up to 2 weeks after the exposure.
I am 23 years old and this all started In 2017. My heart starts racing and I have and I start crying uncontrollably. I found myself getting away from anyone that was around me ( Going in the shower and just crying) my heart would race so fast. This has happened three times in the last two years. I hate the way this makes me feel. Should I b worried? Should I seek for help?
The emotional effects of anxiety may include "feelings of apprehension or dread, trouble concentrating, feeling tense or jumpy, anticipating the worst, irritability, restlessness, watching (and waiting) for signs (and occurrences) of danger, and, feeling like your mind's gone blank" as well as "nightmares/bad dreams, obsessions about sensations, déjà vu, a trapped-in-your-mind feeling, and feeling like everything is scary."
Psychotherapy. A type of psychotherapy called cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is especially useful as a first-line treatment for panic disorder. CBT teaches you different ways of thinking, behaving, and reacting to the feelings that come on with a panic attack. The attacks can begin to disappear once you learn to react differently to the physical sensations of anxiety and fear that occur during panic attacks.
Another important prevention strategy for anxiety is to incorporate exercise into your daily activities. Exercise has been shown to decrease stress hormones that influence anxiety and also improve overall mood. Exercise can also help you disengage from worry and stress and focus on the current task of exercising. Exercises such as light jogging or brisk walking that can be incorporated into your daily activities can help reduce the impact of anxiety when it occurs.
DISCLAIMER: Because each body is somewhat chemically unique, and because each person will have a unique mix of symptoms and underlying factors, recovery results may vary. Variances can occur for many reasons, including due to the severity of the condition, the ability of the person to apply the recovery concepts, and the commitment to making behavioral change.
Grants and Funding: We proudly support the research and programs of 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations and institutions such as: the Anxiety Disorders program of the Jane & Terry Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior at the University of California, Los Angeles; the Pacific Institute of Medical Research; the International Foundation for Research and Education on Depression (iFred); and SchoolsForHope.org, an iFred educational project. Working with these partners enables Anxiety.org to extend its commitment to its mission. All the donations received, as well as 100% of Anxiety.org revenue in 2019, will be contributed to build, develop, and further the understanding, investigation, discovery, and treatment of the full spectrum of anxiety and related disorders.
Fear and anxiety can be differentiated in four domains: (1) duration of emotional experience, (2) temporal focus, (3) specificity of the threat, and (4) motivated direction. Fear is short lived, present focused, geared towards a specific threat, and facilitating escape from threat; anxiety, on the other hand, is long-acting, future focused, broadly focused towards a diffuse threat, and promoting excessive caution while approaching a potential threat and interferes with constructive coping.
David D. Burns recommends breathing exercises for those suffering from anxiety. One such breathing exercise is a 5-2-5 count. Using the stomach (or diaphragm)—and not the chest—inhale (feel the stomach come out, as opposed to the chest expanding) for 5 seconds. As the maximal point at inhalation is reached, hold the breath for 2 seconds. Then slowly exhale, over 5 seconds. Repeat this cycle twice and then breathe 'normally' for 5 cycles (1 cycle = 1 inhale + 1 exhale). The point is to focus on the breathing and relax the heart rate. Regular diaphragmatic breathing may be achieved by extending the outbreath by counting or humming.
Other research suggests that social structures that contribute to inequality, such as lower wages, may play a part. In a study published in January 2016 in the journal Social Science and Medicine, Columbia epidemiologists reviewed data on wages and mood disorders, and noted that, at least in their data set, when a woman's pay rose higher than a man's, the odds of her having both generalized anxiety disorder and major depression decreased.

Far more than just a dance, the dynamic choreography of the Yup'ik provides an illuminating window into the morality, social organization, and colonial history of this indigenous people. In Yupiit Yuraryarait, anthropologist Ann Fienup-Riordan begins with a brief historical overview of the colonization and development of Alaska from the Yup'ik point of view. Then, armed with oral history testimony spanning thirty years, she shows how singing and dancing are interconnected and imbued with meaning in this complex ritual. Accompanied by 150 original photographs by James Barker and a DVD of the dancing, this volume marks the first in-depth look at the Yup'ik people through the lens of interpretive dance.

One question about the recent carbon monoxide deaths in Pikesville: Isn't there any kind of legal limit to how many people can occupy a given residential property? ("County officials investigate Pikesville carbon monoxide deaths," Dec. 13.) There is certainly a legal number of people the fire marshal allows in schools, churches, commercial spaces, etc. Ten people were living in that house. Four people were living in the basement alone! This kind of overcrowding presents the potential for great loss of life in an emergency.
Aren't Baltimore County authorities concerned with the safety of people where they live? Are private homeowners allowed to take in an unlimited number of tenants? Don't residences have to be zoned to take in renters? The county needs to look in to this matter before more people die living in a packed house!

Tina Peters, the Mesa County (Colorado) clerk who reportedly opened up voting machines to Trump supporting activists and caused the release of system passwords, was arrested at a criminal court hearing in Mesa, Colorado Public Radio reports.
Peters was seen by Paralegal Haley Gonzalez and Deputy District Attorney Jonathan Mosher apparently video recording court proceedings in a case about a former county employee who illegally accessed computer systems using Peters’ log in credentials.
Judge Matthew Barrett warned that gallery that he would “take appropriate legal action” if anyone was caught recording court sessions, which is illegal, a fact posted on signs throughout the courthouse. Barrett said he was satisfied with Peters response that she was not recording anything with her iPad.
Officers confiscated Peters’ iPad when they arrested her. A recording of her arrest appears to show Peters’ attempted some type of back heel kick toward an officer as officers work to subdue her at her arrest Tuesday at a bagel shop. She is charged with felony attempt to influence a public servant.
Peters is already under investigation by at least one grand jury probing her part in election tampering and other crimes related to the release of voter information. Peters was a featured speaker at a promotional event held by cut foam executive and Trump crony Mike Lindell, where she claimed to have evidence of election fraud but failed to provide any.

By Kuhl, Nick on July 17, 2017.
Southern Alberta Newspapers – Fort Macleod
This summer is bringing music back to southern Alberta with the South Country Fair.
The three-day festival that’s taking place July 21-23, is back again with more fun, sun and performances than ever.
Jana MacKenzie, artistic director, says the atmosphere that accompanies this festival is second to none.
“The atmosphere that is created because we are an on-site camping festival is amazing. People set up and make it their home for the weekend,” she says.
“Our location within the river valley and under the wide-open prairie sky is an idyllic setting and many campers have occupied the same spot for years. The community of campers that exists alongside the performances creates a collective feeling that even non-campers come to enjoy.”
The weekend, packed with entertainment, offers a range of music, poetry and performance art that shows enough diversity to get everyone involved.
This year’s performance lineup ranges from traditional folk music to new forms of musical fusion and everything in between. Among some of the performers hitting the stage this summer is Scott Nolan, Tyler Perry, Eliza Doyle, Viper Central and many more.
MacKenzie says this unique lineup and positioning within southern Alberta gives the festival its edge.
“Our audience continues to attend because they know that they’ll be exposed to a variety of exciting sights and sounds. There are lots of folk festivals in the province that provide similar programming and we often share touring acts with these festivals, however, most of them are in central and northern Alberta,” she said.
“We are unique to this region and draw in a large portion of our audience from the neighbouring communities. However, there are also a great deal of folks who travel long distances every year to join us.”
With this festival running mostly due to partnerships and volunteers, the organizers are enthusiastic to say they have more than 400 people joining their team each year to make this event possible. With its growing popularity from local and world travellers alike, the demand for a wonderful weekend is higher now than ever.
“The head count varies understandably, depending on the weather and whatever is happening in people’s lives, but we vary from a low of about 2,100 to a high a few years ago of around 2,900. That is heads total for the weekend, including volunteers and performers,” says organizer Trent Moranz.
Beyond the scheduled performances that bring music to life upon the stage, songwriting competitions and camping activities are always available to keep the guests amused. The campers even make music of their own during the days, offering their own styles and entertainment to their friends and all those who care to join.
“The cherry on top of this festival is the pop-up community, and that so many of our attendees who camp are musicians themselves and there is always a campfire jam happening somewhere on site and is open for anyone who walks by to have a seat or join in,” says MacKenzie. “The inspiration to learn and create music often evolves in the campground, with like-minded folks that want to enjoy and play music together.”
The artists and performers who grace the stage usually come from all across the country, however, there are a few international acts that stop by to enjoy the fun.
The festival that has been running since 1987 originally started as a meeting ground for several local folk groups that got together each year in order to get to know one another. However, as time moved on the event morphed into a three-day experience, that hopes to expand its participants’ cultural horizons and bring people from all walks of life together under the internationally-diverse umbrella that is performance.
“I’ve worked and volunteered with numerous organizations and am continuously in awe of the fair’s unique organizational structure. We all want to be at the fair all year and can’t imagine our summer without it. It’s what fills my cup and keeps me excited to be a member of such an amazing group of humans,” says MacKenzie of her time with the organization each year.
Weekend passes and camping passes are available for this year’s festival and can be found along with other information and the current lineup on their website at: http://southcountryfair.com.

Psychologist, Janina Steinmetz often talks about the correct ways to exude confidence. In order to avoid alienating ourselves by reveling in the details of our achievements, Steinmetz believes retellings of our victories should always be countered with the trials that led us to them.
This approach has been shown to have positive effects on potential employers and first dates.
Follow Ladders on Flipboard!
It’s important to address the nuances of confidence because it’s such a difficult quality to enact and maintain. We all know that advertising self-assurance is by and large a good thing, but what are the most effective ways to do so?
A study revisited
A study performed back in 1982 and published in the Journal of Experimental Social psychology asked participants to evaluate the competence of sixty imaginary individuals preparing for a tennis match or a class final examination. Respondents were given just two pieces of information before deliberation: how well the imaginary individuals thought they would perform on their respective tasks, and how well they actually performed. The results showed that the optimistic predictions of the imaginary competitors had a much bigger influence on their perceived competence than their actual performances did. So even if projections of confidence were unsubstantiated, observers were likely to buy into them.
A recent study attempted to reestablish the findings from over 30 years ago with a recreation of its circumstances. The results indeed confirmed that self-promotion plays a major role in perceived aptitude but only when it’s non-comparative. So as long as your claims of ability don’t survive on the belittling on another’s abilities. you are more likely to be possibly received.
Unfortunately, some of us are simply incapable of fairly presenting and or perceiving our capabilities. Because assuredness is so important to professional progress, we often attempt to put on a mask to survive the daily bustle of the workforce. Thankfully Anka Wittenberg, Senior Vice President and Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer at SAP, assures us that expressing confidence doesn’t require a complete personality overhaul. She suggests we consider little steps to nudge us toward true confidence. Things like writing down all our attributes, visualizing our goals, and reinforcing our competencies through actions.
Work hard to back up your claims of mastery and steer clear of being too uncharitable when evaluating others.

This will be just before our fantastic headliner Lisa McHugh, who has been named Female Vocalist of the Year five times.
The party concludes with The Orange Circus Band and our festival weekend closes at 6pm on Sunday. What a line-up of talent, a wonderful musical celebration of the best UK singer-songwriters. You are all in for a long awaited treat….live music is back!

GUWAHATI: The quest to know the status of two highly endangered and also elusive species of wildlife at Manas national park
, in western Assam, has begun for their long-term conservation.
Manas is one of the last bastions of the critically endangered pygmy hog (the smallest hog species in the world) and the endangered hispid hare. Hispid hare is also one of the most elusive species found in the park. And for years their habitat status was not known.
The survey on pygmy hog and hispid hare carried out last week has brought out the status of their habitats and also raised hopes for their long term conservation. The population of pygmy hog is now virtually confined to Manas. Manas has an estimated 150 pygmy hogs in 2008. In India, hispid hares are found more or less in fragmented habitats in Assam, West Bengal, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan. Grasslands are the important habitats for these two species.
Manas Tiger Reserve (MTR) field director Anindya Swargowary said the survey team being led by the forest department consisted of grassland experts Gitanjali Banerji from Zoological Society of London, Kaushik Deuti from Zoological Survey of India, Bibhuti Lahkar from Aaranyak (an NGO) and several researchers.
Swargowary said the survey was part of the periodical monitoring that will be carried out for ascertaining the status of the animals.
MTR deputy director Sonali Ghosh said that altogether 17 grassland habitat sites were surveyed under Bansbari and Bhuyanpara forest ranges. Ghosh added a total of 20 nests of pygmy hog were detected from three separate locations.
"Hispid hare pellets were found almost on all camp site locations. Besides, direct evidence was also obtained for other grassland obligate species such as hog deer (Hyelaphus porcinus), swamp deer (Rucervus duvaucelii), and Bengal florican (Houbaropsis bengalensis)," Ghosh said .
Lahkar said that conservation of grasslands is an imperative for the long-term survival of pygmy hogs and hispid hare that are in Manas.
"Wet alluvial grasslands dominated by Barenga and Ulu grass species under the two forest ranges are critical for survival of pygmy hog and hence must be protected by taking suitable measures including preventing spread of invasive species," Lahkar said.

While waiting for a bus in the 9200 block of West Congress Street at 1:40 p.m. Dec. 6, a man in shorts walked up to a woman while pulling his hooded sweat shirt over his face, reached into his pocket and pulled out a large black revolver, according to a Wauwatosa police report.
Also from the report:
The man seemed nervous, shaking the gun pointed at the woman's chest.
"Give me your phone," he demanded, she told officers.
The Milwaukee woman hastily complied, and the robber jogged off. The woman said he came from an apartment complex near the bus stop, but went in a different direction.
Police combed the area for him, turning up no suspects.

“The truth is a hard apple whether one is catching it or throwing it.” David Barthelme
The Reader’s Digest Version
Hi, I’m Lynn. I blog for love and I hope that shows!
While my blog covers decorative arts, fine art and whatever is new and now in the world of design, it is really about the beauty I find in the everyday world around me.
I have worn many hats in my day–lawyer, mother, interior designer and, now blogger– but I credit the time I spent working at Sotheby’s as most influencing my point of view.
The True Story
I have always been a dreamer. I was the little kid whose mother begged her to put down her book on a beautiful summer day and go outside and play. I would take my book and climb a tree in the backyard to continue reading. As a child, I was shy and quiet. That might surprise people who meet me in real life today, because over the years, I have learned to be outgoing.
Neither of my parents, nor any of my aunts and uncles, went to college. It was all about the kids. Getting a good education was paramount. Without exception, my siblings and cousins are professionals: lawyers; doctors, nurses, teachers, accountants, successful businessmen. You get the picture.
In my family, college wasn’t something you automatically did after high school. You went to college with a plan: to learn what you needed to get a good job afterwards. Period. So what was my plan? After I read To Kill a Mockingbird as a young teenager, I decided I wanted to be an attorney.
That meant when I walked on my college campus on the very first day, I knew I was going to be a political science major and go to law school. Undecided? Forget about it. Plus, I needed to keep getting straight A’s so I could get a scholarship to help pay for my education. Yes there was pressure.
I learned that I loved looking at art in high school. I had a wonderful French teacher who introduced me to the Impressionists and other artistic movements. But that was an aside. In my parents’ opinion, interest in art did not lead to a job.
Once in college, I took an art history elective and fell in love. I wanted to change my poli sci major but my parents quickly squashed that idea. How would I ever get a job majoring in art history, they asked, reminding me that I needed to pay back my mounting student loans. Art can be a hobby they advised. Read books. Go to museums.
And so I did.
Going to museums was what I did for fun, even in my late teens and early 20’s. I always bought the audio tour and got lost in whatever exhibiton I attended. When I could afford it, I bought the accompanying catalogs. I dreamed that, hey, maybe after law school I could become General Counsel of the Met. (Turns out I came fairly close to that dream).
I graduated from law school and started my legal career as corporate attorney at a Wall Street firm. When it came time to furnish my first apartment, my older brother taught me that buying country antiques can be cheaper than Ikea (at least back then). I wouldn’t have “throw away” furniture, but things that could increase in value. I added decorative arts to my list of interests, reading up on all types of furniture, so I could recognize a “good” deal when I saw one.
Three years in at my Wall Street firm, a colleague recruited me for my dream job. I took a huge pay cut to work as a corporate attorney at the art auction house, Sotheby’s and it was so worth it. Sotheby’s wasn’t the Met, but it was damn close.
I loved working at Sotheby’s. The legal matters were fascinating. Even better I was surrounded by beautiful art and antiques everyday. I had a front row seat in the top echelon of the international art and antiques scene and it was fabulous. We were encouraged to look and learn at Sotheby’s; it was part of the corporate DNA.
Fast forward a few years, and while I retained my passion for art and antiques, I picked up a few new passions–like a husband and three young boys (2 are twins). I tried life as a working mother. I was employed part time at Sotheby’s for a few years and worked there until the twins were one.
Sotheby’s eventually wanted more time and I couldn’t give it to them. With 3 kids under the age of 3, it was too much for me. I decided to stay home full time. I embraced everything about making a loving home: cooking for my family, creating special celebrations and designing a comfortable abode. More new passions.
How to wrap this up? Many of you already know our house burned down and that rebuilding it led to my second career in interior design. What you may not know is that I began studying interior design at Parsons just for fun, years before I ever dreamed of being a designer. It was simply my break from the kids and I loved my classes in architecture and decorative arts most of all.
We have recently had a new twist in life. As I was packing up my youngest children (the twins) for their freshman year in college, my husband was appointed Deputy Police Commissioner-Legal Matters for the New York City Police Department. This job has a mandatory NYC residency requirement.
While Larry and I dreamed of returning to Manhattan after our children were grown, we didn’t expect it to happen within weeks after dropping the youngest 2 at college. I am now coming up on one year as a Manhattan resident and I adore it. The house I rebuilt has new homeowners with young children, ready to make new memories there.
Now, I split my time between NYC and Montauk NY and we are currently on the prowl for a hunting cabin upstate for my avid outdoorsmen.
I continue to pursue all of my passions and I enjoy sharing them here with you. If you read this blog, you know how much I love going to museums, how I am a design book addict, and I how you can’t drag me away from a good antique show. Now you know how I came to love those things.
Through blogging, I have even discovered a new passion: turns out I love the act of writing itself. Today, I very much enjoy being a contributing editor to several other websites as well as blogging here.
I hope you also can tell that I find life, with all its twists and turns, beautiful.
Thanks for reading.

Today I was at the end of a wonderful book. I had tears in my eyes during the "Black Moment". And then motherhood called. So I put the book down, waiting for bedtime to come so that I could finish it. Well, I had to run to the library to e-mail a contest entry. (I don't have Word, unfortunately.)
Guess what happened? Like an addict, I was lured to the fiction aisle.
And I rented the newest book by my favorite author. And then I had to resist reading it as I drove home. That's right. As I drove.
The funny thing was, I'd been obsessed with finishing the earlier book but once I saw this book I totally forgot about the first one.
It got me to thinking. Publishers, agents, and writers speculate on what really sells a book.
The cover? The blurb? The title?
I used to think the cover hooked me, then the blurb. But now I gotta admit, the name sold me. That is, the author.
After being so into the one book, I was pretty shocked when I suddenly wanted to toss it aside in favor of the newer book.
By the way, I finished Only Uni and it was great! Funny and deep. Really funny, actually. So I resisted temptation and now I'm glad I did.
But who knew a favorite author would be such a powerful hook?

First I thought he was a punk who was on the pop wagon.
I didn't even give him a chance until I saw him @ the Grammy's in 2011.
I loved his live performance and I have been hooked ever since.
I enjoyed his dance moves and really like his songs once I took away my tunnel vision of hating him.
So, I couldn't get concert tickets when he came to the rodeo. Sold OUT!
Really, the rodeo? He broke the Houston Livestock record of attendance, but it was short-lived.
George Strait holds that record but I still think that's by default, hello, it's the rodeo, I
guess Strait should hold the record but....you get my drift.
Ok, so I didn't sweat it, since I found out he's coming to Houston for a real show.
Yup you guessed it...SOLD THE FRIGGIN OUT!
I guessed I would have tried harder if I had a crushed on him, but alas, I don't.
I couldn't make it to Madison's 7 games within two days but her new team won third place in the tournament. Yay Madison!
This weekend was also Angelina's Suessical performance. It was a delightful show filled her six costume changes for Lina. She not only was the ballerina, but she sang dance and tapped her ways to our hearts.
It was as if I saw a mini Melissa on stage just dancing and singing her heart out on stage.
This is something that I wished I had Luke and Hayden. The kids who attended were just loving The Cat in The Hat.
I just wished the tickets were cheaper...$35.00 is a lot of moo-lah!


Fil-Ams in Las Vegas relieved by Pacquiao win
• Were wary of non-KO fight ending, which could’ve robbed their champ again
• Fans now want Mayweather’s head
• Viewing parties bring family and friends together
LAS VEGAS, Nevada — Manny Pacquiao is back as champion. Order has been restored. Filipinos in Las Vegas can rest easy.
“He showed he still have plenty left in the tank,” said Pat Pimentel at a fight viewing party. “He has slowed down, but he’s still one of the best.”
Showing just occasional flashes of his old fiery self, Paquiao easily outpointed Timothy Bradley over 12 rounds Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Area to win back the WBO welterweight title he lost to the American two years ago.
There were no anxious moments for the two dozen or so Fil-Ams who watched the fight at the home of William and Trini O’Rourke on Dessert Inn, except before the decision was announced.
Pacquiao easily dominated the fight, but like in 2012, there was fear that Bradley, who came into the fight with a spotless 30-fight winning streak, could snatch the victory.
“I’m glad Pacquiao was declared winner,” said Jose Badsalin. “It was a convincing win, but you never know with this decision victories.”
After a two-loss streak, including that controversial split-decision loss to Bradley, Filipinos here have been wary of a Paquiao fight.
Pacquiao fights are a big event here for the 30,000 or so Filipino-American residents, and fight parties are pretty common, with groups of Filipinos using the occasion to meet up with friends, relatives and folks coming from the same Philippine towns and cities.
“It’s been like family affairs,” said Trini Rourke, who works at the Golden Gate Hotel and Casino in downtown Las Vegas. “Everyone here is either a friend or relative.”
Because watching the fight live is expensive, most Filipinos resort to buying pay-per-view to watch the bout, oftentimes sharing the expense and food potluck style.
At the O’Rouke fight party, there were pancit, lumpia, chicken and beef, kakanin, including cassava cake, and puto.
It’s an event repeated in many Filipino homes across the United States — and in the Philippines — as Pacquiao, a tried and tested boxing hero, continues to impress despite his advancing age.
The talk now, here and throughout the boxing world, is if finally fans will get the fight they’re hoping for — a bout with Floyd Mayweather Jr., a Las Vegas native.
“That will be the fight of all fights,” said Romy Lumanlan, who added that Mayweather could not forever avoid Pacquiao if he were to cement his boxing legacy.
Pacquiao came out sharp and eager to fight and engaged Bradley toe-to-toe in the early rounds, unleashing his patented two-fisted attack and combinations.
In the third round, Bradly pinned Pacquiao on the ropes and appeared to have hurt the Filipino, drawing gasps from the crowd watching the bout.
But Paquiao escaped with not much damage and administered the same punishment to Bradley in the seventh. As the American visibly appeared to be tiring out, Pacquiao took control of the fight.
In the 12th, however, the two boxers banged heads, and Pacquiao sustained a deep cut on his left eyebrow. Good for the Filipino champion, it was the last round, and there was no clear damage.
“He’s good for perhaps another two years,” said Gil Guillen, whose wife is Filipina, and had lived in the Philippines for 14 years. “We can still enjoy watching him fight.”

Aqua NC To File For Another Rate Increase
The private water utility Aqua North Carolina says it plans to file for its third rate increase in five years. The company notified the state Utilities Commission last week that it will file a formal request in August. It's not yet clear how much Aqua will ask to raise its rates. The company last requested an increase of 19 percent in 2011, and the Utilities Commission approved an increase of about 5 percent.
Consumer advocates argue another rate increase will hurt low-income customers. Aqua NC's water rates are about double those of public utilities in the Triangle. The company's president and COO Tom Roberts says Aqua's infrastructure is more expensive to maintain.
“We typically serve the smaller communities, more spread out, and so we don't have the advantage of a fixed cost of Durham, Raleigh or Cary where they have a fixed geographic footprint and everything within relatively close proximity,” Roberts says.
Roberts says Aqua is seeking the increase to recover $25-30 million dollars in upgrades to its water and sewer systems. Aqua provides water for about 73,000 customers.

Informe Nº: 14/05/2014
The main sources of progress and prosperity are the increases in productivity that underpin improvements in wages and massive generation of quality employment leading to families having more income generating members. Therefore, it is essential that labor and welfare institutions are very sensitive to incentives that favor responsible motherhood and labor market inclusion.
The INDEC presented the results of the Annual Survey of Urban Households (EAHU) for the 3rd quarter of 2013. Unlike the Permanent Household Survey (EPH), which refers to data only from the large urban centers, the EAHU expands its coverage to small towns in the interior of the country (2,000 or more). EAHU includes employment data, but this time a positive aspect is that data on income distribution by province is also presented.
One of several interesting data provided in this report is the per capita income of households disaggregated by province. According to INDEC, the median per capita household income in 2013 is about $ 2,500 per person per month. This means that half of Argentine households live on less than $ 2,500 per month per person; however, this average hides a strong heterogeneity among regions.
While many factors determine the differences among provinces there is one which is particularly suggestive, the association between level of household income and the formation of families. The data published by the INDEC shows that:
· In Chaco, Formosa, San Juan and Santiago del Estero there are 3.7 members per household, 37% of women work and average family income per capita reaches $ 1,576.
· In the rest of the North West, Cuyo, Pampas and Mesopotamia regions there are 3.4 members per household, 42% of women work and per capita household income is $ 2,310.
· In the City of Buenos Aires, Santa Cruz and Tierra del Fuego there are 3 members per household, 50% of women work and per capita household income is $ 4,822.
These data show that higher levels of income are associated with higher women employment rate and smaller family size. With extreme simplification, the observed association could be summarized in that for each percentage point increase in the female employment rate per capita household income increases by approximately 14%.
This previous analysis of the relationship between women's employment and income level of households is rudimentary and requires more complete and sophisticated statistical analysis to give rigor and precision. Nonetheless it shows the importance of generating high quality employment opportunities for women as a determinant of social progress. This relationship, which not only holds for Argentina’s provinces but also for other countries, shows that as women find more job opportunities, household income increases and family size tends to be smaller. An increase in per capita household income results in better life quality and better prosperity due to more and better educated children.
This alerts that the increases observed advances in social legislation in the last decade, while important, are insufficient and unsustainable. First because they are linked to the boom caused the high prices of raw materials and very low interest rates. Second because they respond to a conservative vision that puts more emphasis on the distribution of public resources via welfarism instead of creating opportunities for families to be agents of their own progress.
To take a progressive turn in public policy is essential to reform labor institutions with emphasis on job creation for women. Especially for young people and those coming from poor households. The other centerpiece is the redesign of welfare plans incorporating incentives to responsible motherhood and greater labor participation, particularly by modernizing the AUH (universal child allowance) and PROGRESAR (welfare program which provides a monetary incentive for students).

Major League Eating: The Game, will make its debut as an exclusive title on WiiWare.
When the title was announced for the PC back in February, we said: "We're already anticipating the Wii version, where the Wii Remote mimics a spoon with which you have to shove as many digitised desserts into your mouth as you can without spewing."
It seems we're blessed with precognition, as Mastiff has confirmed that players will use the Wii Remote to mimic such 'eating techniques' as the cram, toss, and typewriter.
The game will feature a variety of 'famous eating athletes' competing across a selection of foods and venues. It works like a fighting game apparently, with bites, burps, belches, mustard gas and jalapeņo flames acting like weapons and blocks. All whilst stuffing your face full of virtual food.
There's no word of a release date yet, although WiiWare launches in the States on May 12.
