What is COQ10?
What is COQ10
Coenzyme Q10 is an antioxidant with a myriad of health-promoting benefits. It is foundational for heart health, cellular metabolism, energy production, recycling Vitamin A, C & E, scavenging free-radicals, and plays a pivotal role in healthy fertility.
Without COQ10, our vital organs could not keep up with the energy demands required for performance (think the heart). Low COQ10 levels have been associated with heart disease, metabolic disease including Type II Diabetes (T2DM), neurological disease like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, and kidney failure.
In today’s blog we will explore the benefits of COQ10, what it is, and how it can be integrated into your day to day for wellbeing.
What is COQ10
COQ10 is short-form for Coenzyme Q10. It is an essential nutrient for optimal health, and plays a major role in electron transport and mitochondrial chain. It is found in every cell, with the liver being the primary area for biosynthesis (8).
Areas of the body with COQ10 concentrations:
COQ10 concentrations inherently begin to decline with age, so awareness of its significance is a valuable insight for better health.
COQ10 and the Heart
The highest concentration of COQ10 is found in heart tissue. There is some speculation that COQ10 is actually found at highest concentrations in the ovaries - however more data is needed to confirm this assumption. There is growing evidence that deficiency in COQ10 concentrations is linked to a variety of cardiometabolic disorders (2), including:
- Heart Failure
- Ischemic Heart Disease
- Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction)
It is reported that 3 out of 4 patients with heart disease have deficiency in COQ10 levels. (2)
COQ10 and Statins
COQ10 and Cholesterol are synthesized through the same biochemical (mevalonate) pathway. Studies have shown reduced COQ10 concentrations after its use with statins (HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors). In some case studies, concentrations may be as high as a reduction of 54%. However, this is dose-related, and some researchers hypothesized that reduction of COQ10 values may contribute to the adverse effects of stain medication use. COQ10 in conjunction with statin use can be a possible mediator for treatment if closely monitored. (4)
COQ10 and Metabolic Disease
COQ10 assists in metabolism by converting energy from carbohydrates and fats into ATP. It is reported that on average, patients with Type II Diabetes (T2DM) had lower levels in COQ10 than people without T2DM. The exact mechanism and relationship is not entirely understood. However, there is accumulating evidence that mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the pathogenesis of the disease. (9)
COQ10 and Infertility, and Sperm Motility
COQ10 is essential for ovarian and testicular health. Reduced COQ10 levels via serum has been associated with hypogonadism, and ovarian aging (10). Many animal studies have shown that COQ10 supplementation protects ovarian reserve by restoring mitochondrial function. COQ10 has also been shown to improve sperm motility (10).
COQ10 and Neurological Disease
Deficiency in COQ10 has been associated with Neurological disease, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Cerebral Ataxia, Epileptic Seizures. More research is needed to distinguish how COQ10 plays in neurological health and disease. Some theories suggest it is essential for brain bioenergetics, and plays a protective role by recycling antioxidants, scavenging-free radicals, or both.
Who is Deficient in COQ10
The ability for the body to synthesize its own COQ10 decreases with age, with optimal human biosynthesis in mid-twenties. (6)
Statin Medication Users
Statin medications are used to treat coronary heart disease. One of the potential drawbacks of statin use includes statin‐induced myopathy, one of the main reasons for statin discontinuation. Some research suggests supplementation with COQ10 can ameliorate the negative outcomes associated with statin-induced myopathy.
Genetic Predisposition: Primary & Secondary Deficiency
Primary COQ10 deficiency involves mutations in specific COQ genes that encode proteins of the CoQ biosynthesis pathway (primary deficiency), or can be associated with secondary deficiency caused by defects in the mitochondrial functions indirectly involved with the biosynthesis of COQ10
Predictors of sarcopenia (muscle loss) has been associated with low CoQ10H2/CoQ10 ratio.
Sources of COQ10
COQ10 is a fat soluble, and consumption with fatty foods (olive oil, nuts and legumes, avocado) can help boost absorption. COQ10 can in small amounts can be found in:
- Oily Fish: Mackerel, Salmon, Tuna, Sardines, Trout
- Organ Meats: Beef Heart, Beef Liver, Chicken Heart, Chicken Liver
- Vegetable: Broccoli, Spinach, Cabbage
- Nuts & Seeds: Pistachio, Peanuts
However, COQ10 has approximately a 10% dietary absorption rate via the GI tract due to its low water solubility + high molecular weight. (4)
COQ10 can be found in a variety of formats (COQ10, Ubiquinone (Oxidized), Ubiquinol (Reduced) dosages
Always consult your health care practitioner before supplementing with COQ10.
Researchers investigated the effects of COQ10 absorbency at different supplemental doses. Doses of 200mg resulted in higher concentrations (serum) than 100mg – but doses taken twice daily at 100mg yielded the greatest concentration levels overall. This data revealed that COQ10 absorbency may have a finite capacity at approximately 100mg. (3)
- Peak Plasma: 6-8 Hours (4)
- Half life: 34 hours (4)
Several clinical studies investigating diverse diseases used a variety of COQ10 doses, with adverse effects generally more common at doses above 1200mg per day, with doses 22 to 400 mg per day being considered safe. (4)
Coenzyme Q10 can exist in two forms Ubiquinol (oxidized), and Ubiquinone (reduced)
COQ10 is an essential nutrient synthesized within the mitochondrial membrane. It is lipophilic (fat-loving) and structurally belongs to quinone groups. The “10” indicates the amount of isoprenyl units which determines its low polarity – essentially allowing fast diffusion into the mitochondrial membranes.
Gastrointestinal effects such as abdominal discomfort, vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, headaches and allergic rashes have been reported in clinical trials. Therefor always consult your health care practitioner before supplementing with COQ10. (4)
COQ10 and Medications
COQ10 carries antiplatelet and hypotensive properties. Other blood-thinners medications include Warfarin, and Vitamin K, so you should always be monitored while supplementing. (4)
COQ10 supplementation have been generally considered safe. However, it should be cautioned for pregnant and breasting women, or to small children as the side effects during these periods have not been fully clarified. (4)
How can you test deficiency in COQ10
Biochemical analysis of COQ10 is not standard routine. Most common analytical techniques include high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) with either ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) or electrochemical detection (HPLC-ED)(8).

Actually it's design - it is a wonderful example of leftover 70'ies styling that really should be preserved
General cleanlinesss - rooms were not 100% clean, also breakfast areas, etc...
It was handy for the exhibition centre and the Irish Bar
My room was right opposite a night club which was open very very late and the noise was unbaerable which kept me awake most of the night
The proximity to the railway station and also to the City Center is good.
The room where I stayed did not have AC and it was very difficult to stay during summers. Proper ventilation was not available and hence not a suitable hotel during Summers. AC these days are basic requirements and if such things are not available it should be notified as part of the booking confirmation.
location is okay...
however, I did not like the hotel comfort the value of money I paid...it is old and the service is not great...they had terrible old pillows...
only the discounted price

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen speaks to attendees from the local Black Chambers of Commerce during a virtual roundtable event on February 5, 2021 in Washington, DC.

Banks have improved their capital positions and should continue to be able to buy back their own shares, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said on Wednesday.
As a precautionary measure, the supervisory authorities restricted the repurchase of shares for the largest institutions in the country in 2020 after Covid-19 had reached pandemic status. After those banks passed a pandemic-focused stress test in December, the Federal Reserve said it would allow buybacks to resume, albeit with some restrictions.
Yellen spoke to the Senate Banking Committee on Housing and Urban Affairs Wednesday and agreed to allow the share buyback.
“I used to be against it when we were very concerned about the situation banks would face if they buy back shares,” said Yellen. “But financial institutions look healthier now, and I believe they should have some of the freedom that the rules on return to shareholders offer.”
They are expected to do just that as buyback restrictions wear off in the first quarter of 2021.
After financial sector companies bought back just $ 80.7 billion worth of stocks last year, that number is likely to “increase significantly,” said Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices. Of that, $ 46.6 billion was in the pre-restriction period.
In 2020, S&P 500 companies approved buybacks totaling $ 519.7 billion, down 28.7% year over year, according to Silverblatt.
The largest banks still have restrictions on being unable to return to shareholders more than they made in profits the previous year.
The Fed’s move to resume buybacks came after the largest institutions showed they could survive worst-case scenarios related to the pandemic.
Central bank officials have largely praised the industry’s Covid response, saying that companies too big to fail remain well capitalized.
Warren aims at BlackRock

Senator Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., However, said she doesn’t think regulators go far enough in their oversight.
In particular, she suggested that BlackRock, the institutional money management giant and leading ETF provider, should also be referred to as a “systemically important financial institution” or SIFI – that is, a company that could jeopardize the economy if it collapsed.
Warren and Yellen held controversial exchanges on the subject at times, with Warren interrupting the Treasury Secretary repeatedly when she tried to respond.
BlackRock is the world’s largest money manager with nearly $ 9 trillion in assets. The company helped run the Fed last year when the central bank bought corporate bonds.
Yellen said “I don’t understand” that the term “systemically important financial institution” is the “right tool for managing” the risks posed by asset managers like BlackRock.
She said examining the problem will be part of the work she is working with the Financial Stability Oversight Council in the coming days.
“I think it is important to identify institutions whose failure would pose a significant risk to financial stability,” said Yellen.
“I understand that it can be easy to ignore risks that can build up in the system when the stock market rises,” countered Warren.
“That was the regulator’s mindset that led to the 2008 crash, and that way taxpayers are hooked on a $ 700 billion bank bailout,” she added. “When the party gets strong, it’s up to the regulators to take the punch away.”
A BlackRock spokesman said the company was already heavily regulated but shouldn’t be subject to the same rules as banks.
“We support a reform of financial supervision that increases transparency, protects investors and enables responsible growth,” said the spokesman.
“The last two US governments and numerous global regulators have studied our industry for a decade and concluded that asset managers should be regulated differently than banks, with an emphasis on the products and services of the industry,” said the Explanation further. “BlackRock is not a bank and, as an asset manager, we are a highly regulated company.”

Due to Republican obstructionism, Obamacare may not be fully ready. And that was their plan. Now Paul Ryan is out there fear mongering its roll out, claiming this is proof government can’t do anything.
jsonline: "Businesses don't know how to comply. States don't know what's going on.” In the 2014 elections, Republicans will fare better because people will see that the health care overhaul is "one big false huge empty promise. Now we will be experiencing big government in practice," Ryan said.
Ryan continues to mischaracterize Sen. Max Baucus’ “train wreck” comment as well, who warned that congressional Republicans should stop getting in the way up of its implementation or it’ll be a train wreck:
Like the author of the bill in the Senate, Max Baucus, I think this law's a train wreck," Ryan said.
Low and behold, Journal Sentinel readers were onto to Ryan. Their commentary is spot on:
Fear mongering terrorists Ryan and Walker. Oust these fools. Ashamed to be from Wisconsin.
more fear, uncertainty and doubt from the party that specializes in fear, uncertainty and doubt....who woulda thunk it???
I don't think a lot of these GOPers have made a good faith effort to meet the deadline for insurance marketplaces.
Walker, who hates the federal government wants to be part of the federal government as our next president. Walker, who does not trust the federal government, decided to let the feds set up our health insurance exchanges instead of having Wisconsin create their own. Walker says the government needs to get out of the way because of job killing regulation, but then proceeds to set up the WEDC, the most corrupt and useless waste of taxpayer money and home to graft I believe our state has ever seen, proving the need for the government to put laws and regulations in place to track taxpayer money??
He might be right...but if so, it'll be mostly due to GOP obstructionism.
What hypocrisy! They do everything possible to block the law, and even refuse to set up the State exchanges. Then they complain that it won't be ready in time!?! I hope nobody is falling for this one.

Dogs are lovable creatures. A comprehensive understanding of breeding management is important for pet owners. In addition, caring for a pregnant dog is a very much tricky and important task.
Every dog owner wants to know about the management and care of a pregnant dog. Feeding also plays a vital role in the management of a pregnant dog. In this article, we are going to discuss the “feeding and caring of a pregnant dog” under the light of scientific literature and general field experience.

What Is Gestation Length In Dogs?
According to scientific literature, the average gestation period in dogs is 57-65 days (on an average of 2.5 months). However, being a responsible owner, you should note the exact date of mating, particularly, if there are two matings. Keep in mind that, prediction of the exact delivery date in dogs is very tricky and difficult to estimate.
The gestation length varies from breed to breed. All along with that, other factors i-e litter size, genetics, environment, and feeding practices.
What Are The Phases Of Pregnancy In Dogs?
For the better understanding, we have divided the pregnancy into the following phases:
- Movement of a fertilized egg to the uterine horn (This happens in the first month of the pregnancy, the egg attaches with the uterine horn on the 15th or 16th day of pregnancy).
- The growth of the fetus is very fast during the first month of the pregnancy.
- In the second month, the embryo develops into a puppy.
- By the end of the second month, the dog will become ready to give birth to her young one.
Note: A vet can detect the heartbeat of the fetus by the end of the first month.
How Do I Know My Dog Is Pregnant?
There are different signs which a pregnant female dog shows. Here, we have enlisted a few important key signs of pregnancy in dogs.
- Gradual weight gain
- Distended abdomen
- A sudden increase in the appetite
- The dog becomes irritable
- Gradual increase in the nipple size
Note: The above-given signs can be due to any underlying health condition. Being a responsible owner, you should keep eye on the overall health of your dog. This is better to consult a vet; he/she can help you in a better diagnosis.
How To Manage Nutrition For A Pregnant Dog?
As discussed earlier, good nutrition is very much important for a pregnant dog. This is important to keep an eye on the nutrition of a pregnant dog. In addition, there is a correlation between weight and nutrition. So, this is important to keep a pregnant dog on high-quality nutrition and a healthy weight.
In short, being a responsible owner, this is your duty to maintain the ideal weight of the pregnant dog until birth.
Feeding care (1-6 weeks)
The first weeks of the pregnancy are considered very important. The chances of weight gain are greater in the early weeks of the pregnancy. This is why it is very crucial to maintain the body scoring of the pregnant dog (4-5) and the weight gain during the first weeks of pregnancy should be at 10%.
Also remember that, during these weeks, there is no need to change the energy requirements. If your dog is getting high quality, balanced diet, then no need to make extra feeding arrangements.
Note: During the initial weeks of the pregnancy, there can be abrupt changes in the feeding behavior/appetite of your dog. No worries, these things are quite normal and occur due to hormonal changes.
Feeding care (6-9 weeks)
The last weeks of pregnancy are very important. As the fetus grows, the energy and nutritional requirement of a pregnant dog also increase. This is important to give specialized puppy food to a pregnant dog in her last days of pregnancy. The specially formulated puppy diet contains the optimum amount of vitamins, energy, protein, and essential minerals (calcium and phosphorus).
This is very crucial to note that the diet should be highly digestible and given into small portions. It will decrease the load on the gut of your beloved canine friend. Keep in mind, the dietary transition should be only done under the supervision of a certified pet nutritionist.
It is a thumb rule to give 10% extra energy to the pregnant dog each week until the whelping.
As far as water is concerned, try to provide the maximum amount of water to the pregnant dog. Make sure she has access to clean and fresh water all the time. If you are offering dry food to your canine buddy, do increase the amount of the water.
How Exercise Is Important For A Pregnant Dog?
Exercise plays an important role in maintaining the ideal weight. This is very important to go for slight exercise with your beloved canine friend. Avoid strenuous exercises as they can harm the pregnant dog. However, this is recommended to discuss this issue with a certified pet doctor.
Note: This has been observed that frequent and short walks give lots of benefits to the pregnant dog.
How Your Vet Can Examine A Pregnant Dog?
There are various tools that a vet can use to diagnose pregnancy in dogs. For example, palpation, Ultrasonography, hormone profile, X-ray examination.
Palpation can be performed almost at the 28-30 days. Ultrasonography can be done approximately at the 25 to 35 days of gestation. A hormone test can be done at 25-30 days of gestation. X-ray is usually performed during the late pregnancy. Many vets do X-rays at 55 days of gestation to visualize the litter size and their skeletal structures.
Regular vet visits are important for the overall health of a pregnant dog. These visits help in preventing the pregnant dog from several health complications. For example, during pregnancy the worm infestations become common. This is better to get an appropriate deworming plan for your dog.
Note: This is useful to deworm a pregnant dam with a suitable dewormer (Fenbendazole) starting at the third trimester to the last 14 days before the whelping. This thing will also reduce the chances of roundworm or hookworm infestation in newborn puppies.
Here, we are going to share some important considerations regarding the care of a pregnant dog.
- Don’t overstimulate a pregnant dog. Do some light exercises with your beloved dog and don’t let her be lazy.
- Prepare a whelping box for puppies and layer it with newspaper or other material that easily absorbs the fluids. Also, provide the whelping box for puppies several days before the expected date. Keep the box in a clean and dry area and don’t let other animals/children around the box.
- This is highly recommended to avoid those things which can disturb a whelping dog. For example, removing old carpet or furniture with which your dog is familiar. All along with that, strange scents, fragrances, sounds, sights can also interfere with the normal whelping process,
- Being a responsible owner, this is your foremost duty to keep the environment of your pregnant dog as soothing as possible. Also, provide the pregnant dog a supreme quality of nutrition.
- Last but not least, regular veterinary visits and proper nutritional guidance from a certified vet is very much important.
Important Whelping Supplies:
Here, we are going to share a checklist of all the supplies which can help you during the whelping process.
- A pair of clean and dry towels to wipe the puppies.
- Sterilized scissors to cut the umbilical cord.
- Iodine solution to clean the abdomen of puppies after cutting the umbilical cords.
- Keep in mind; this is very important to monitor the body temperature of the pregnant dog before whelping. Hence, a thermometer should be there.
- Heat lamp
- A baby scale
- Honey syrup
- Veterinarian contact number or the contact information of the nearby clinic.
Frequently Asked Questions
What signs does a pregnant dog show as it approaches whelping?
The whelping signs vary from dog to dog. However, when a pregnant dog approaches whelping she stops eating/drinking. A sudden drop in rectal temperature occurs. Straining/moaning can also be observed. You can also observe the water coming out of the vagina. Almost within the first hour of the expulsion of the water sac, the first puppy comes out of the birth canal.
What are the important complications of labor a pregnant dog ?
If a pregnant dog is uneasy and unable to expel the puppies. There is the expulsion of green/dark blood discharge out of the vagina before the birth of the puppy. The trembling, shivering, and collapsing is also considered the complications of the labor.

After having experienced the beaches in the south of Cambodia and the incredible mountainous forests of Dambulla, I think I can safely say that you should get out of Colombo as quickly as possible. Everything there is to do there can be condensed into one convenient day of sightseeing, eating and drinking. Here is how to do Colombo in one day before you head off and see the rest of Sri Lanka.
Why you should only spend one day in Colombo
Unless you’re spending three weeks in Sri Lanka, you really don’t need to dedicate more than one day to its underwhelming capital. It’s a big city with absolutely nothing special about it. There are three or four nice places to visit before you start to consider whether you should visit the virtual reality center at the mall across the street. Considering the fact that the rest of the country is brimming with untouched natural beauty, wasting additional time in Colombo is really criminal unless you love half-constructed high rises and tons of traffic.
How to easily see everything in Colombo in one day
Colombo is very advanced with regards to transportation. You don’t have to worry about buses or haggling with tuk tuk drivers. Uber and Pick Me provide convenient app-requested tuk tuk and car rides all over the city sometimes for less than $1. If you have a good idea of where you want to go, you can knock everything out by requesting an Uber Tuk to your next destination. It saves you a lot of time walking around a hot big city competing with cars and buses for street space. It’s one of the most hassle-free cities in Southeast Asia for sightseeing I’ve ever visited.
Things to do in Colombo in one day
Gangaramaya Temple and Seema Malakaya
Gangaramaya Temple is the city’s most popular Buddhist temple. It’s a massive complex including a monastery, pagoda, museum, and the sacred Bodhi tree where monks chant. On the grounds you can see the vast collection of religious artifacts, statues, and relics. It’s nice during the day and also at night when everything is lit up.
Just a couple of blocks away on Beira Lake is Seema Malakaya, which is part of the Gangaramaya Temple, sitting on a floating platform. It’s a lot more peaceful and quiet than Gangaramaya and they’re both easy to access on foot. It also features numerous Buddhist statues as well as shrines to Hindu deities like Shiva and Vishnu.
Aside from the temple, Gangaramaya Park has some nice opportunities for a peaceful walk and even to ride the paddle boats on the lake.
Enjoy the waterfront at Galle Face Green
Though it’s a port city and the beaches are basically non-existent, there’s a nice boardwalk on the waterfront where you can catch the sea breeze and get some street food. Galle Face Green is basically a huge park which is close enough to city center to offer nice views of the skyline and right on the water so you hear the waves crashing. There are a lot of salespeople trying to sell kites, which adds a nice touch to the skyline, though most people aren’t really buying them.
Check out the shopping in Pettah
The busiest part of town is the Pettah area, where you’ll find tons of clothing and electronics shops on Main Street and sprawling street markets surrounding the main Pettah Market. You can buy anything from luggage to watches. Though it might feel a bit overwhelming, it’s interesting to at least walk around in for a bit. This area is also home to one of the city’s most striking attractions, the Red Masjid mosque (Jami Ul-Alfar Mosque). Women are allowed only in a special section of the mosque, and as I’m not interested in visiting anywhere I’m unwelcome, I didn’t attempt to go inside. But it’s very beautiful from the outside.
Relax at Viharamahadevi Park
This huge city park is a big hit with locals. Families can be seen walking with their kids, and couples duck under the shade of trees to escape the heat all over Viharamahadevi Park. We also saw people bring horses here, making it something of a dog park for bigger animals. The park has a huge Buddha statue which is right across from the Town Hall building, a large white domed structure which is visible well into the park.
Visit the National Museum
Just outside of Viharamahadevi Park is the National Museum, a two-floor museum dedicated to Sri Lankan culture and heritage. The museum is extremely organized and well-labeled so there is a lot of information for visitors in English about each of the different items featured in the collection. It has everything from traditional clothing to agricultural and industrial history, royal relics, weapons of war, and other cultural items like popular face masks.
Have a drink at Park Street Mews
Our Uber driver from the airport was the one to tell us about this modern row of bars and restaurants in the heart of the city. It’s a good place to go eat as well as to have drinks late into the night. With cutesy semi-upscale dining options and colorful street art adoring the walls, this street is a bustling hipster hideaway.
Do a little sightseeing
There are a couple of other notable places to see around town. One is Independence Square in front of Independence Memorial Hall. It’s a large monument with a fountain where you can also relax and take a breather. It’s sometimes used for the city’s celebrations, so you might catch a special event.
Another worthwhile place worth seeing is the Temple of Sri Kailawasanathan Swami Devsthanam Kovil (try saying THAT three times fast). This is the oldest Hindu temple in Colombo and though you’ll see others like it around town, it’s one of the largest.
Peeking out from behind this temple is Lotus Tower, a massive and beautiful communications tower, with a planned observation deck that is slated to be completed in 2020. Though you can’t visit it quite yet, you can’t miss it. It’s visible all over the city.
Enjoy some Sri Lankan cuisine
To experience the local culture in a big way, I recommend diving into a platter of Sri Lankan food. Try Upali’s, which is affordable and delicious, though it is outrageously spicy. For a milder local alternative to a plate of all-hot everything, get the egg hoppers, a fun hooped Sri Lankan egg crepe. We also had some incredible straight-out-of-the-oven dishes at The Sizzle, served up piping hot and, you guessed it, sizzling.
Get the fuck out of Colombo
The more time I spend in Sri Lanka, the more I realize what a colossal waste of time Colombo is. My suggestion is to do your own Uber-powered tour of the city in one day and go do something better with your vacation. Colombo is a dump.

Dear <<First Name>>;
I have made it back to the bay area, and I’m now in the uncertainty of being here and what to do next. I need to find a place to live in the next couple of months as well as start figuring out how I’m going to proceed with coaching here.
I tend to think I don’t have too many issues with food, but in times of uncertainty the ones I do have come forward full force. I notice how much I want to fill the holes in my life with food. I eat pretty well, but reaching for homemade organic popcorn or nuts out of an emotional lack is pretty much the same thing as reaching for a doughnut or candy bar. The choice might be healthier; the result less detrimental to my body/mind, but the pattern is the same.
So, in this month’s article I talk about bringing the whole range of nourishment into our awareness, so that we can choose wisely when we need to nurture ourselves, not through food, but through taking a bath, going for a walk or run, or doing some writing.
Healthy Habit: Create Your Nourishment Menu
We all know that food sustains us, but as human beings we need more than just food. For some of us, food takes on great importance because we are not finding in the rest of our lives adequate nourishment. We use food as a substitute for whatever is missing.
If we focus on the other ways we can find support and sustenance, we might find food becomes less important. Have you ever gotten so involved in something you cared about that you completely forgot to eat? You were being fed by what you were doing, and although obviously that isn’t a good idea long-term, it provides a clue to the relative importance of different forms of nourishment.
Having ready access to those things you know help you feel better can save your sanity when you are having a difficult day. Long hours at work, a problematic meeting, conflict with a coworker, or a temperamental child can easily lead us to reach for our chosen food version of refilling ourselves. How much more fulfilled might you feel, though, if instead you had a list of things to choose from to soothe your soul and reconnect with yourself? Make yourself a nourishment menu by thinking about the things that you already do or have done in the past to feed yourself and rejuvenate physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. On your list might be things that
Give you pleasure
Make you feel excited and energized
Re-connect you with yourself or something greater than you
Shift your energy in a positive way
Feel meaningful to you
Let you know that you care about you
Consider the following areas to help you come up with a robust list of nourishing menu items to choose from:
We sometimes treat our body like it’s a hindrance, simply a vehicle for our mind or spirit that we don’t pay much attention to unless it gives us problems. How might our experience change if we really nurtured ourselves physically? A bath or massage nourish the body, as might a nap or deep breathing. Our body also needs exercise, preferably in a form that we really enjoy. All types of exercise, whether strenuous or relaxing, can help us feel better. You can learn to distinguish when you need to release through aerobic activity versus when some gentle yoga and breathing exercises will do you more good. What are your favorite ways to nurture your body?
Some of us get plenty of mental stimulation in our jobs, but it isn’t necessarily the kind that really feeds us. If you feel mentally drained by the end of the day, perhaps it is time to learn something new you’ve wanted to explore for years, take up a new hobby, or visit a museum or library for some inspiration. What would be meaningful for you to learn?
In what ways do you connect to a deeper sense of yourself or to a higher power, the universe, or the mystery? Meditation and prayer are obvious choices here, but you also might read a spiritual text a little at a time and contemplate what it says. Sometimes when I need to re-center I go to the ocean; what type of natural environment feels like a spiritual home for you?
In what ways do you recharge creatively? I sometimes take paints or pastels and express what I’m feeling in color, or start writing a story from a random sentence, just for the fun of it and to see where it goes. Other ideas are to go on a picture-taking expedition, write a poem, play some music, and dance or sing to your favorite music. Let your inner world come out in some unexpected way that surprises and delights you.
Create your nourishment menu, and then pick something from it each day this week and see how you feel. Let me know what you choose and what happens!

Tarbiat Modares University, Iran
Posters & Accepted Abstracts: J Biosens Bioelectron
The effect of different toxins and various environmental stressors on cells can lead to the accumulation of free radicals in human body. These free radicals give rise to damages to cellular biopolymers through oxidative stress. Cell based biosensors refer to cells which have been genetically engineered to produce a measurable signal in response to specific chemical or physical agents in the environment. In this study, pGL4.26 plasmid, a vector containing the luc gene downstream of a minimal promoter was used as a reporter gene of the Huh7-1X-ARE-luc biosensor. Then the ARE fragment (antioxidant response element), which is expressed in response to oxidative stress was cloned upstream of luc gene as a response element of the biosensor. The ARE/Keap1-Nrf2 pathway is the major regulator of cytoprotective responses to oxidative stress. In order to investigate the sensitivity of the cell line, cells were incubated with increasing concentrations of a wide range of chemical food toxins inducing oxidative stress (i.e. lead). These toxins, enhance luciferase activity in a dose dependent manner, with sensitivity approximately about 30 μM lead concentrations as an oxidant agent. Real time PCR was performed on cells treated with 30 μM lead due to analyze NQO1 and NRF2 gene expressions. Based on our data, NQO1 and NRF2 expressions were upregulated in response to lead exposure, which confirmed the increment in our previous luciferase analysis. Finally, the specificity of the cell line was also accomplished by using non-oxidant specimens and the biosensor was able to differentiate toxic substances from non-toxic materials.

Tried to PM this, but it's too long. For the benefit of everybody else, I'll post it here rather than emailing.
Wow!, Tutze de Mutze!!
Nice model man!
Thanks for the heads-up about earthobservatory. Have also got in mind a render of our solar system. Perhaps even a bit further out into space.
Was just wondering, if the diameter of the earth is 12760km wouldn't you want to scale by 63.8? Scaling a sphere with a radius of 1, by 127.6 gives you a sphere with a diameter of 255.2.
Sure, it's no big deal - it'll just throw off the position of the clouds and the atmosphere, since they're scaled by an amount that assumes the planet is 12760km in diameter.
I think if you try these values you will find that your model better represents our planet.
1) Make sphere. Scale by 63.8 Freeze transformations
2) duplicate, set scale to 1.00376
3) Select initial sphere, duplicate, set scale to 1.0300
This will create 3 spheres with diams of
127.6 - Earth (diam = 2*63.8 = 127.6)
128.08 - Clouds. (earth + 15(24km) miles each side) 48km total
131.44 - Atmosphere (earth + 120(192km) miles each side) 384km total.
Using these figures rather than the ones quoted results in a higher cloud layer and thicker atmosphere.
Don't believe me? Just check for yourself. Load your scene, use these numbers. This will produce something 1/2 the diameter of yours. Freeze the transformations then scale my one by 2 and put the two planets side-by side. You'll see what I mean.
Use Create->MeasureTools->Distance, vert-snapping on the two poles of each sphere to check it's diameter.
All that said and done, your model still looks BLOODY GREAT. Be sure to post the result if you try it and are pleased.

David Cassidy - David Cassidy Sued By Law Firm
Veteran singer/actor David Cassidy is facing legal action from his former lawyers over allegations he failed to fully pay his bills.
Chiefs at Rodier & Rodier are suing The Partridge Family star, claiming he owed the company $134,221 (£86,594) from 2006 to 2011.
They allege Cassidy has only paid $25,000 (£16,129) and are demanding he hand over the remainder of the total, plus interest - but a representative for the star insists the issue is a mix-up.
His spokesperson tells Tmz.com, "There seems to have been a misunderstanding between them which I believe will be amicably resolved."

A science journal is poised to publish a study that some experts believe could give a recipe to bioterrorists.
The study is from an experiment by a Dutch scientist who engineered the avian flu virus to make it more deadly to mammals by making it spread through the air.
That experiment was funded by the U.S. government, and it has sparked a passionate debate among scientists. Part of that debate is over where this research could lead, and whether it is worth it.
The National Institutes of Health and some scientists say it is worth it. They say it could ultimately protect mankind by trying to anticipate how the virus could mutate to one that causes a pandemic -- like the one in the film "Contagion."
Dr. Anthony Fauci heads the NIH agency that funds infectious diseases research. It funded the controversial Dutch experiment.
"We need as scientists and health officials to stay one step ahead of the virus as it mutates and changes its capability," Fauci told CNN Radio recently. "To anticipate that would be important to determine whether the countermeasures we have available, such as antivirals and vaccines, would actually be effective against such a virus that changed in such a way."
But a number of scientists are stepping forward to say it is not worth it -- and that this research could actually bring us closer to that nightmare.
How? By making a lethal virus that spreads like seasonal flu.
"We are playing with fire," says Dr. Thomas Inglesby and his colleagues at the Center for Biosecurity at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
If this engineered virus were to escape the laboratory, by accident or by evil, "it could endanger the lives of hundreds of millions of persons," Inglesby says.

The Blessing Way (Thorndike Press Large Print Paperback Series)
Homicide is always an abomination, but there is something exceptionally disturbing about the victim discovered in a high lonely place, a corpse with a mouth full of sand, abandoned at a crime scene seemingly devoid of tracks or useful clues. Though it goes against his better judgment, Navajo Tribal Police Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn cannot help but suspect the hand of a supernatural killer. There is palpable evil in the air, and Leaphorn's pursuit of a Wolf-Witch is leading him where even the bravest men fear, on a chilling trail that winds perilously between mysticism and murder.

trevbul1 Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 I recently posted that a friend's 4RT had a spark and a plug wet with fuel but would not run. Following advice from various sources, I; Checked that the air filter was not over-oiled and that the fuel cap was breathing correctly. Drained the tank and removed the top banjo from the injector so I could soak out that fuel with a rag, replaced the fuel with fresh 99 octane and checked the fuel was running freely from the outlet. BTW, I met a guy once who had (evventually!) found that atheft-detection transponder had come unglued inside the tank and blocked the fuel line! Replced the plug with a brand new CR6EH-9 Reassembled and kicked it repeatedly with the plug out to hopefully draw throufgh the new fuel. Checked the routing of the throttle cable and lubed it to ensure that the throttle was fully closing with an audible click at the injector end. (I'm sure everybody knows by now that 4RT's only start on a dead throttle) Wound the idle adjuster out ONE FULL TURN anti-clockwise Replaced the plug and fully rotated the kickstart twice SLOWLY with the throttle wide open to reset the ECU; I know the jury is out as to whether this is a real thing or not, but it can't hurt. Carefully positioned the kickstart to find the top of the compression at the 5 to 12 position. Kicked it smoothly all the way down and held the kickstart against the footrest. It starts first or second kick every time now. I had to readjust the tickover speed once it had warmed up, so don't put the mdguard back on until it is running! Many thanks to all who offered suggestions and happy riding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spousal separation, selectivity and contextual effects: exploring the relationship between international labour migration and fertility in post-Soviet Tajikistan
|Date received:||04 Aug 2008|
|Date published:||22 Dec 2009|
|Keywords:||fertility, migration, multiprocess model, selectivity, spousal separation, Tajikistan|
This paper contributes to the sparse literature on the impact of temporary migration on fertility in origin areas. It examines the case of male labour migration from post-Soviet Tajikistan, a significant and relatively recent phenomenon. Fertility and migration models are solved simultaneously to account for cross-process correlation. There is clear evidence for a short-term disruptive effect of spousal separation, but it is too early to assess the implications for completed fertility.
While there is no evidence for unobserved selectivity at the couple level, there is a significant positive correlation between the migration and fertility processes at the community level.

Influence of Permanent Magnet Thickness on Loss of Permanent Magnet Brushless DC Motor
The permanent magnet thickness is a main consideration for the permanent magnet brushless DC motor design. The effect of the magnet thickness on the different loss of the motor and motor output power is considered through the circuit-field coupling finite element method under the full-load operation. 2D transient thermal analysis is carried out as the verification of the design result. The motor is fabricated and the experimental results prove that the design motor with the certain magnet thickness can fulfill the requirements.

Welcome to Kids’ Books Bolivia
Kids’ Books Bolivia is a series of bilingual children’s books written by undergraduate students on the SIT Study Abroad Program in Cochabamba, Bolivia. This reciprocity project contributes to the production of affordable books celebrating Bolivian reality and serves to raise international awareness about Bolivia’s rich cultures and pressing social issues.
We use all proceeds to subsidize low-cost books, book donations and workshops for Bolivian children, schools, libraries, community organizations and literacy programs.
During the months of May and June 2013, Skylar Sasson presented I Always Dreamed of Having a Store to several students at Avenues: The World School. Skylar began by reading to a class of third-graders on the afternoon of May 23, 2013. She was pleasantly astounded by their mature behavior and insightful inquiries and was excited to share new Spanish and Aymara words with the language-learning students.
Similarly, Avenues’ librarians were extraordinarily impressed with Skylar’s story and her interactions with the students. They not only invited her back to present to another third-grade class on June 4, 2013, but the school’s librarians also offered her the opportunity to be considered for the newly created position of Associate Librarian at Avenues NYC.
Through the “avenue” of I Always Dreamed of Having a Store and Kids’ Books Bolivia, Skylar developed a strong partnership with both the unique and newsworthy program of Avenues: The World School, as well as with its students and their teachers.
Kids’ Books Bolivia was invited to participate in the 2nd Feria de la Lectura in Sucre, Bolivia on April 27, 2013. This event was organized by La Fundación BibliWorks and included expositions and activities by a number of organizations working with children and youth in Bolivia. The event was attended by children from dozens of elementary and high schools in Sucre. Heidi Baer-Postigo represented Kids’ Books Bolivia at the event, accompanied by SIT Bolivia alumna Aliya Ellenby of Colectivo Katari and Julie Kurtz of Comunidad Ecoactiva Kusikuna. They organized activities with children using our new educator toolkits recently developed for use with 12 of the children’s books written by students on the SIT Bolivia program. The new educator toolkits are currently at press and will be available by the end of this week.
On April 5, 2013, Skylar Sasson returned to her alma mater, The Calhoun School, in New York City to share I Always Dreamed of Having a Store (Siempre he soñado tener una tienda) with a group of nearly fifty fifth-graders. As Calhoun purchased a classroom set of forty copies, most students had already read the book as an assignment for their Spanish class. Skylar’s presenting the book aloud in both Spanish and English solidified students’ understanding of the story and its themes and led to a robust dialogue about protagonist Lucy’s life in neighborhoods Villa Nueva Potosí and Tocoli, Bolivia. Calhoun’s Spanish students were shocked to learn about Lucy’s lack of indoor plumbing and could hardly believe that Skylar spent time in Bolivia without Facebook, cell phones, and television. Skylar urged them to apply for grants to travel abroad in middle or upper school, as she accomplished when traveling to El Salvador, Argentina, and Israel, in part through the Claudia Curfman Castellana Memorial Fund Grant of the Calhoun School.
The above image appeared in a post from Calhoun’s alumni Facebook page, with the following text:
Skylar Sasson ’08 dropped by today to read from and talk about her new book, I Always Dreamed of Having a Store, with 5th grade Spanish students in the library. Having already read the book, which draws on Skylar’s experience in Bolivia, the 5th graders were enthusiastic to meet the author and ask her questions.

These were factory fitted to a 2004 Stilo Abarth, and still have the original factory fitted 215/45 ZR17 tyres on! I think the wheels were only on the car for about 15k miles, and have been in storage ever since.
I took the photos a couple of years ago, and then put them back in storage with the intention of selling them and never got around to it.
Only damage is as very minor scuff as shown in the photo. Finally getting rid of them to free up some space, open to sensible offers.

Critics have suggested the Red Devils’ poor form comes down to a lack of hunger, but the Crystal Palace boss insists that is not the case
Victor Lindelof’s decision to continue playing despite being visibly injured during Manchester United’s 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace proves Jose Mourinho’s team is playing with desire, according to Roy Hodgson.
United produced another tepid display at Old Trafford on Saturday and were arguably fortunate to take a point against a Palace side who had lost their previous three games across all competitions.
The result leaves United trailing pacesetters Manchester City by 14 points after just 13 matches in an underwhelming start to the campaign.
United’s form has seen fans, pundits and even Mourinho question the team’s motivation, but Hodgson pinpointed Lindelof as proof to the contrary, battling on with a knock after the hosts had made all three substitutions.

Late in the game, the Sweden centre-back – who was noticeably limping due to injury – kept pace with Wilfried Zaha, before then nonchalantly dribbling out of defence, and Hodgson applauded him.
“If anyone doubts anything about Manchester United and commitment and desire, to see Lindelof, who had obviously injured himself, actually keeping pace with Zaha and [Jordan] Ayew, that would tell you more,” Hodgson told reporters.
“If I was a Man United man, that would be one of the most impressive things that happened in the game as far as I’m concerned.
“It would give me a lot of satisfaction knowing that, not only are there good players here who can cause so many problems for opponents, you’ve even got that level of spirit and determination and guts when it comes down to it.
“He could quite easily have used the injury as an excuse, and Wilf and Jordan, who are very quick, could have gone past him and maybe even won the game.”
Mourinho must now dust his players down quickly ahead of a crucial Champions League encounter against Young Boys on Tuesday, before an away trip to Southampton in the Premier League four days later.

Coming Soon: a Marvin Gaye Documentary!
Politically charged and fueled with observations of a troubled society, Marvin Gaye’s 1971 album, What’s Going On? provided the soundtrack to the civil rights movement.
Recorded at the height of Motown’s reigning stature in the music industry, and inspired by the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Vietnam War, Gaye created a masterpiece that charged America with the task of self-reflection and sparking action to lead the world into better days.
It was important and needed. Still is.
With the album setting the tone, Noah Media Group and Greenlight are developing a docu-film with focus on the artistic genius, complexity and soul-stirring talent of Marvin Gaye.
Marvin, What’s Going On? will mark the first project that his children (Nona, Marvin III, and Frankie Gaye) and former wife, Janis Gaye have supported.
“Our father was complex, but we are confident that with Noah Media Group attention to detail and their dedication to truth, the positive, inspirational and aspirational aspects of his life will be handled and shared with the world in a way never seen before,” his children said in a statement.
The family also expressed their excitement to participated in the process of creating the film. “We look forward to sharing what we can through friends, family, footage, and priceless stories that only those who knew our father up and close would know.”
Noah Media Group and Greenlight are slated to begin production this year with shooting taking place on location in Detroit, L.A., and Washington. The team is aiming for a 2017 release.


According to Celebrity Net Worth, Gwen Stefani is worth a whopping $100 million while her boyfriend of about a year and a half is reportedly worth $60 million. It's the type of song that could be a natural fit for Brown to sing as a recording artist, belting out a couple strong notes throughout the song that prove her strength as a vocalist. "They would even throw [Gwen] a considerable amount of money, but between her and Blake [Shelton], money really doesn't matter", the same source went on to add.
Meanwhile, on coach Adam Levine's team, the true standout of the evening was Lilli Passero who performed Carole King's classic "It's Too Late". "I'd say the longer I'm here, the more and more I realize they're just people". And just like last night, when Blake Shelton and Alicia Keys' squads were whittled down, there are no real surprises here. Adam was impressed by the performance and told Plake that he is a singer "who truly represents what's going on in music right now". One of the big struggles here is mostly that you're having to judge what a voting public will do when we've yet to have any feedback from them. After the performance, Adam begged the crowd to vote for him, because if he gets more time with Isaiah, he will make him the "best version of himself".
Finally, the Top 12 were chosen.
Brennley Brown found herself in a good spot during this week's live episode of The Voice.
Gwen opted to save Troy Ramey from Sea Cliff, NY, sending the following artists home: Johnny G.; Quizz Swanigan from North Little Rock, AR; and J Chosen from Albany, GA. Levine then had to choose from his four eliminated acts - Hanna Eyre, Johnny Hayes, Mark Isaish and Josh West - to also take on to the next round. And when Adam had another chance to save Johnny, he made a decision to stick with Mark Isaiah instead.

I can imagine among the things present in Chris Avellone's daily routine is "reply to yet another interviewer's questions" at least judging by the amount of them he gives, with the latest coming from CelebritySC. In the interview Chris tackles the ways the industry has changed since when he started his work as a game designer and gives advice to aspiring game developers. Here's a snip:
As a writer, how do you overcome creative blocks?
Creative blocks can be killed by:
- Switching mental gears (going for a walk and getting away from the screen, or looking or reading a magazine you would not normally read).
- Reviewing your old brainstorming file for old ideas.
- Playing the game you're working on.
- Going into the editor and fixing bugs or reviewing work you've done.
Usually, I found these can help prevent creative congestion.
What are your thoughts on the PC-console (rift)? Are you a (PC gamer) or a (console gamer)? How do the differences between the platforms affect the design process if at all?
I am both. It affects the design process mostly in terms of controls (each has a limited number of controls per platform) and memory management (memory and lag on a console needs to be carefully monitored to prevent the game content from slowing down the game).
If you start in the industry all over again, what would you do differently?
Nothing. If I had to think of something, I'd probably try to pick up a little programming, but to be honest, the industry changes so fast, I feel I lucked out by making the right choices at the outset (writing degree, architecture degree, spent a lot of time gamemastering to players and writing adventures, reading a lot for a good literary foundation, and doodling and drawing maps, people, and places whenever I could).

Sounds like you found the issue, but not sure of the cause. I would be sure to solder the connections to the new connector and do everything you can to reduce impedance in the circuit. Maybe a little dielectric grease on the male blades of the bulb? A tiny tube from NAPA seems to be a lifetime supply for me. There does look to be some corrosion in the old connector, I can see some green color. Maybe try and protect the new connection? Electrical tape might be the easiest, but most messy (in the future) option.

The MTV Video Music Awards have always been my favorite awards show due to their unpredictability and high entertainment value, but the How People Used Social Media to Watch the 2011 MTV VMAs Infographic demonstrates just how many different ways the award show was viewed this year.
With sections devoted to Twitter activity (which went from 200,000 tweets when the show started to 500,000 by the time it ended, much of it due to the announcement of Beyonce’s pregnancy, which broke Twitter records) and Top Hashtags (#VMA took the top spot, while #justinbieber, #joejonas, #VMAS, and #mileycyrus rounded out the top 5). Which brings me to my next point: since when is Joe Jonas relevant again?
Interestingly enough, according to the How People Used Social Media to Watch the 2011 MTV VMAs Infographic, 65% of viewers were female and only 35% were male. Guys, you’re missing out. The VMAs are always a good time and this year, social media played a huge role in how audiences enjoyed the show.

One of the finest offensive linemen of the last several years in the AFC West is reportedly set to announce that he will retire. Kris Dielman dealt with severe concussion concerns this season already and even had a reported seizure after a concussion from Week 7. Now it's clear that despite his love for the game, the best move will likely be for the San Diego Chargers stalwart guard to call it quits.
Kevin Acee reports, "Team sources and people close to Dielman have indicated for weeks that Dielman has completed his medical research and said he appeared ready to play again. Dielman finished 2011 on injured reserve and had for several months been considering retirement following a concussion and seizure he suffered in October. Sources said he wants to play but on the advice of doctors, with an eye toward quality of his life several years from now, he will walk away from the game."
The team might be expected to move toward his replacement in the draft coming. Certainly if David DeCastro were available, A. J. Smith would have to consider it. Either way, the team will undoubtedly miss Dielman.
