In case its Halloween premiere date didn’t give it away, Stranger Things‘ second season will apparently feature more of a horror tone than the first season. That’s according to the awesomely named Finn Wolfhard, who played Mike in the first season.
“I think this season will be a lot [darker]. A lot more horror-oriented,” Wolfhard told Emmy magazine, as quoted by i09. “I think people are going to like it more than the first season.”
Of course, the first season didn’t exactly shy away from horror elements, what with the truly horrifying dem0gorgon and pretty much everything in the Upside Down. But “darker” is pretty much the oldest blueprint in the book for a sequel, so no major surprises here. But Gaten Matarazzo (who played Dustin) also reveals something a bit more intriguing about the second season.
“The great thing about this season is you get to see insights into each character on their own,” he said. “You’re going to see a lot more into the lives of how the characters are coping with what’s been going on. … They’re all very emotionally scarred. They feel alone because their best friend is back and he’s not acting like their best friend anymore. He’s changed.”
We’ll see exactly what that change looks like in October, when season two comes out. Until then, let’s revisit that soundtrack.

The First and Only FDA-Approved Technology for the Enhanced Detection of Bladder Cancer.
Bladder Cancer affects over a half million patients in the US and >80,000 new cases are expected per year. It is the #4 cancer in men and is observed in men 3-4 times more than women. Treatment is difficult since bladder tumors look similar to normal, healthy tissue. Due to this challenge, bladder cancer can be easily missed or incompletely removed and it has the highest rate of recurrence of all cancers according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Blue Light Cystoscopy with Cysview utilizes Photodynamic Diagnosis (PDD) to highlight cancerous bladder tumors in a bright pink color during surgery. It offers the following advantages over standard white light cystoscopy:
The 2-part PDD system consists of Blue Light Flexible Cystoscopy for on-going surveillance while the patient is awake, and Blue Light Rigid Cystoscopy for fluorescence guided resection with the UH400 Surgical generator.
The value of KARL STORZ Blue Light Cystoscopy with Cysview® 2 Part System comes from treating more bladder cancer patients more effectively. It can attract new patients and retain current ones by offering a better standard of care, which has been proven through excellent real-world outcomes, a strong recommendation by the AUA/SUO, and increased adoption and patient volume at top medical centers.

This instructional video has been prepared by Julio Davalos,MD, of Chesapeake Urology Associates, who is also affiliated with theUniversity of Maryland.
This video compares a portion of an anastomosis procedure performed using standard microscopy techniques with the same procedure completed using the VITOM® System that allows visualization of the surgical field on a high-definition (HD) video monitor.
Cysview is not a replacement for random bladder biopsies or other procedures used in the detection of bladder cancer.
Anaphylactoid shock, hypersensitivity reactions, bladder pain, cystitis, and abnormal urinalysis have been reported after administration of Cysview. The most common adverse reactions seen in clinical trials were bladder spasm, dysuria, hematuria, and bladder pain.
Cysview should not be used in patients with porphyria, gross hematuria, or with known hypersensitivity to hexaminolevulinate or any derivative of aminolevulinic acid. Cysview may fail to detect some malignant lesions. False positive fluorescence may occur due to inflammation, cystoscopic trauma, scar tissue, previous bladder biopsy and recent BCG therapy or intravesical chemotherapy. No specific drug interaction studies have been performed.
Safety and effectiveness have not been established in pediatric patients. There are no available data on Cysview use in pregnant women. Adequate reproductive and developmental toxicity studies in animals have not been performed. Systemic absorption following administration of Cysview is expected to be minimal. There are no data on the presence of hexaminolevulinate in human or animal milk, the effects on a breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The development and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for Cysview and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from Cysview or from the underlying maternal condition.
Cysview is approved for use with the KARL STORZ D-Light C Photodynamic Diagnostic (PDD) system. For system set up and general information for the safe use of the PDD system, please refer to the KARL STORZ instruction manuals for each of the components.
Prior to Cysview administration, read the Full Prescribing Information and follow the preparation and reconstitution instructions.
Cysview is an optical imaging agent indicated for use in the cystoscopic detection of carcinoma of the bladder, including carcinoma in situ (CIS), among patients suspected or known to have lesion(s) on the basis of a prior cystoscopy, or in patients undergoing surveillance cystoscopy for carcinoma of the bladder. Cysview is used with the KARL STORZ D-Light C Photodynamic Diagnostic (PDD) system to perform Blue Light Cystoscopy (BLCTM) as an adjunct to the white light cystoscopy.
Today’s diagnostic and therapeutic urologic procedures have been advanced by the development of modern endoscopic methods. Working elements for the operation of laser probes, rigid and flexible instruments for intervention in the ureter or for conservative nephrolithotomy, as well as instrument sets for laparoscopy and pediatric urology have expanded the range of essential endourological products developed by KARL STORZ. Among the new and emerging technologies recently developed are Photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) for early recognition of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer, Bipolar HF resection, Laser cystoscopy, Improved PCNL procedures.

This new park will also connect to the existing Wheatland Township Park site, creating a nine-acre park campus with a variety of recreational amenities.
A concept plan will be presented at the open house. Contact Director of Planning Bob Collins at firstname.lastname@example.org for more information.


When I first discovered the Melody
Maker in March 2001 I thought it looked like an interesting idea so I bought one and tried it out. It took me a week or so to get used to after playing a traditional
harmonica for over 30 years, but the first day I knew this was the perfect harp for me. I had no intention of adding a harmonica section to this website but
quite a few people have asked me what type of harp I’m playing on different songs since they’re unable to play along in either straight harp or cross
harp. I’ve seen a few comments on the Internet about the Melody Maker being an “advanced tool for advanced players.” It
is that for sure, but it’s also perfect for beginners. Not only does it completely replace the need to learn straight harp, but it
makes it unbelievably easy to learn cross harp as well. Since there is almost no instruction for the Melody Maker, I decided to
do this section with only tabs featuring the Melody Maker. There are already many other websites where you can learn proper playing techniques and I won’t go into that.
All of the tabs in this section are in the key of G and if you want to play along you need a Melody Maker in the key of G. Lee
Oskar harmonicas are carried by many music stores and there’s a good possibility you can buy one locally. You can also buy one at a discount on Amazon.com.
Here’s a little background on how and why the Melody Maker was developed...
Among modern harmonica players there are two main styles of
playing. These are called “straight harp” and “cross harp.” The most commonly played harmonica over the years has been the
10-hole Major Diatonic. Playing straight harp in the key of C on a Major Diatonic you would use a C harmonica. Straight harp is
easier to learn but has some pretty major limitations since the only full octave containing an entire major scale is in the upper
register and most of the important melody notes, including the tonic, is a blow note, which is much harder to bend than a draw note.
Somewhere along the line it was discovered that if you played a a standard C harmonica along with music that was in the key of
G you could get certain notes and effects that weren’t available playing straight harp. This became known as cross harp and is
played now by the great majority of accomplished harmonica players.
Although cross harp was adopted by most harmonica players, it still has its own set of problems, most notably the lack of a
couple notes that will allow you to play complete melodies on most songs. This doesn’t present as much of a problem to
someone who plays blues exclusively, but for those of us who want to play complete melodies of songs it’s a definite drawback.
Lee Oskar, one of the world’s foremost experts on harmonicas, developed the Melody Maker harmonica to address these
problems. Now all of the notes that were missing from the Major Diatonic harmonica are available on the Melody Maker! This
harmonica allows you to play a complete major scale in cross harp so you can play melodies without the need to bend notes,
but you can still bend the draw notes to achieve a bluesy feeling.
Another benefit of the Melody Maker is that only 3 notes have
been altered from standard cross harp playing, so it’s very easy to learn to play the Melody Maker then switch to a regular Major
Diatonic for normal cross harp playing. It has been a common practice over the years for people to learn straight harp, then
when they’ve advanced enough they graduate to cross harp. The problem with that is that all of the notes are rearranged,
which makes it a difficult transition. With the Melody Maker this is simplified tremendously.

Look at her go! Gabrielle Union, 47, took to Instagram on Jan. 10 to share an adorable video of her daughter Kaavia James, 1, crushing it during her latest swim lesson. In the video, we see Kaavia looking ready to go in her pink pineapple bathing suit and bluefish swim cap. She reaches out to the swim instructor and takes a deep breath before hopping off the safety of the stairs and into the depths of the shallow end. Kaavia kicks and paddles with ease as the swim teacher guides her through the pool. It’s clear that this youngster inherited her dad’s athletic prowess!
The proud mom captioned the video, “We Found Nemo,” followed by a very fitting parade of fish emojis. Many of Gabrielle’s fans, friends, and followers couldn’t help but comment on the sweet video. Comedian Amy Schumer, 38, said, “This is the sweetest little determined angel,” while fellow actress and friend Kerry Washington, 42, chimed in and exclaimed, “Mermaid!!!!!” One of our favorite comments has got to be from The Boys actor Laz Alonso, 45, who said, “Baby shark is fearless lol.” Clearly, Kaavia is a force to be reckoned with in the water!
This precious video follows another very endearing Insta post Gabrielle shared on Jan. 9. Kaavia was seen hilariously trying on her mom’s cozy camel Ugg boots and we couldn’t get over how cute she looked with the way-too-big shoes. “She is me. I am her. We both ❤ @ugg,” Gabrielle captioned the post. Perhaps it’s time for Gabrielle’s mini-me to get her very own pair of boots from the popular Australian shoe line!
The duo appeared to be spending a cozy afternoon at home, as Kaavia rocked a matching long sleeve gray pajama set. Mom Gabrielle was twinning in a warm pair of gray sweats, and a crew neck sweatshirt that read “Chili & Cinnamon Rolls.”
While we aren’t sure about chili and cinnamon rolls together, we are digging the comfort vibes any day. The former AGT judge smiled right back at her daughter as they hung out on a staircase, and Gabrielle looked so in love with her little girl.

More often than not when a novel is turned into a Hollywood production, it fails to capture the essence of the story, or depict certain situations in the book that the reader finds valuable to the plot, and while it may succeed in the box office – it often leaves the readers slightly disappointed.
After reading the Hunger Games series first, I felt as thought there may have been something missing from the original movie, but I gave it another chance.
The third movie of this trilogy was released over the weekend, and while it was a last minute decision to attend, and the seat selection wasn’t the best for prime movie watching, it was quickly forgotten once the movie started.
Having forgotten most of the book’s contents, to the movie’s benefit, I found myself eagerly awaiting the next scene – and so on.
Jennifer Lawrence captured the drama of Katniss Everdeen as she adjusts to life in District 13 after being rescued from the arena in the Quarter Quell of the Hunger Games. One of her best performances of the series, it rather moved me and I empathized with events that happened to her throughout the movie – often moving me to mirror her emotions
I stress also, for you to pay attention to Phillip Seymour Hoffman’s performance in this saga. Once head game-maker of the Hunger Games, Phillip takes on a more trusting, loving personality in Mockingjay.
This film did not disappoint me, it was expected to be a set-up for the next movie that will finally complete the saga. It is also on-par for being the highest grossing film of the series, thus far. And while critics may be inclined to condemn Lionsgate for using this film as another epic money-maker - the promotions leading up to the movie we're nothing but a strategic marketing initiative and therefore expected.
You can't reprimand a business for wanting to get a good return on their investment.
Though I am unwilling to provide you with more detail of the picture, without risking spoiling it for others, Mockingjay did succeed in delivering a cinematic experience that left us, me anyway, wanting to see more.
It's a definite must see.

It’s absolute garbage legislation, and the Republican Party gave their seal of approval yesterday. For all the tough talk about wasteful spending, the GOP surrender yesterday was a painful throwback to an old axiom about the two parties: the Democrats want to drive off the fiscal cliff at 80 MPH, while the GOP would prefer to go 45MPH. I believe the Koch Brothers are credited with that saying, but even still—it’s appropriate after this atrocious $1.7 trillion omnibus was passed on a 68-29 vote. The only good thing about this bill—and I’m using that phrase lightly—is that it didn’t include the equally appalling mass amnesty bill that Sens. Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) tried to push through. But it does involve billions in aid for Ukraine, which isn’t a Republican priority, and billions more for the Internal Revenue Service so they can harass working Americans’ Venmo transactions. There were no conservative priorities in this bill—none.
Spencer had written extensively about this legislation and included Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) torching the “swamp GOP” in the upper chamber for selling us down the river. The 4,000-page-plus legislation was viewed as a win by Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who described it as a bill that accomplished conservative aims and was a bright spot in governance as the GOP could get their items included by working with a Democratic Congress. While Roy’s remarks were appropriate, Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN) agreed, saying Republicans got “rolled” with this spending bill, and that anyone not concerned about these back-breaking deficits “is blind to the reality of why that’s not going to work in the long run.”
The Indiana Republican is running for governor in 2024, and these days only reinforce that he made the right decision to leave this town.
“We get rolled by the other side of the aisle because they are unapologetic about turning the federal government into their growth business, and we as conservatives complain about it but then go along with it,” he said.
“We can’t just accept this as business-as-usual,” added Braun.
Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) did try to torpedo the bill, or at least include something conservative within its pages, by adding an amendment that would extend Title 42, which permits our immigration enforcement agents to turn away migrants when caught illegally crossing the border. That was set to expire within the coming days, but as soon as Democrats got wind of this scheme—they killed it.
What happened yesterday also rehashes another older axiom about Congress regarding the House and Senate: If you’re a member of the House of Representatives, your enemy isn’t the opposing party—it’s the Senate, and vice-versa.
Frankly, everyone sucks right now from top-to-bottom.

Earlier we told you about the new LG G3 Stylus, the Galaxy Note 4 rival you probably are not interested in unless you are looking for a note taking device which costs much less than the Samsung handset. And now we have a new device from LG called the LG Gx2.
Not a high-end smartphone, the LG Gx2 is coming equipped with a 5.7-inch 720p display, a 1.2GHz quad-core processor, 1.5GB RAM, 8GB of storage, a 3,200mAh battery, and a 1.3MP front-facing camera. It also comes with an 8MP rear shooter which features the laser autofocus system from the LG G3 and runs Android KitKat.
LG’s press release came on their Korean website, so the LG Gx2 is likely meant just for the Korean market. But there haven’t been any hints regarding availability or pricing.

It manages to pack a host of features into a chassis that's strong and robust enough for use about the home
AMD 2GHz Turion 64 X2 TL- 60
1024MB DDR2 SDRAM
Seagate 100GB (5,400rpm)
256MB Nvidia GeForce Go 7600
Why you can trust TechRadar
Where one manufacturer leads, sooner or later the rest of the market will be forced to follow. So it was only a matter of time before AMD came out and announced that, just like Intel, it had a mobile dual core offering. The thing is, we've known about its existence for close to a year, but if you tried to speak to anyone at AMD about it, they would flatly deny its existence.
To make matters worse, the AMD Turion 64 X2 had a stealth-like soft launch. There's been no fan fare, no mass release of chips and there are very few machines that possess it.
The Asus A7Tc was one of the first machines we've seen sporting the chip - but that doesn't mean a price premium has to be paid - at £1,099 this is a machine within most users' price range. Contrary to most of what AMD has mentioned about the Turion X2 being for thin and light notebooks, the Asus laptop is a hulking 4.2Kg chassis that provides a true definition of the term 'desktop replacement'.
The build quality is certainly up to the usual Asus standard and the finish is smooth to the touch. Built around a 17.1-inch gloss-coated Super-TFT with a native resolution of 1,680x1,050 pixels, it's pinpoint sharp and bright enough to handle games and multimedia tasks. With its built-in hybrid analog/digital TV tuner and its good-sized speakers, this machine can easily be set up as a media centre. You'll even find that it comes preloaded with Windows XP Media Centre Edition.
A Core Duo match
The star of the show is the Turion 64 X2 TL-60, which is the fastest member of this mobile-focused family, and as the name suggests it supports 64-bit operations too - unlike Intel's current mobile offering. Both cores have a clock speed of 2GHz, so there's plenty of power on offer. With a speed boost on the Front Side Bus to 667MHz, AMD chips now match Core Duo and are also capable of handling DDR2 memory, with 1GB installed as standard.
Strange then, that our tests left a bitter taste in the mouth. It's not so much that the processor handles badly - SYSmark 2004 returned a score of 163 - it's more that it trails quite markedly behind Intel's Core Duo with a similar clock speed. A good deal of this may be down to the use of only 1MB of Level 2 cache on the Turion, compared to 2MB on the Core Duo. While Intel has opted for shared L2 cache, which can be flushed to speed up performance, AMD's solution is to stick with 512KB specific to each core.
With a thermal design power of 35W it uses more power than Core Duo, which rolls in at 31W. One obvious side effect of this power consumption comes in the form of battery life. True, this is a large machine and it isn't intended for regular mobile life, but we'd like to see more from a battery than just over two hours.
One real advantage for dual core in the home is for the gamer; one core can handle many of the more strenuous tasks, such as managing the sound and graphics controller, while the second core handles the actual game. With such a hefty chassis and classic screen, we were expecting an impressive graphics subset, but while the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600, with 256MB of DDRIII memory on-board, isn't exactly entry-level it's a rather mainstream offering for such a large chassis.
The reason for this is in the choice of a Type II MXM adaptor that holds the card - the chassis can't physically hold the larger adaptor size. That said, with a 3DMark 2005 score of 3,069, you'll still be able to get a decent frame rate out of most current games.
The Asus A7Tc itself is a great notebook, managing to pack a host of features into a chassis that's strong and robust enough for use about the home. With regards to the AMD Turion 64 X2, it's early days and the chip may need time to get refined; from our initial sampling, it doesn't match Intel on the performance stakes, so let's just hope AMD has an aggressive price plan for the chip.

Ironic, just last night LCPS Loudoun Education Association members were whining about collective bargaining and more unionization is needed. Well, the LEA is governed by the NEA, and the NEA crammed CRT into our schools and shut our schools down due to the common cold. This Arlington Education Association leader (sister of LEA and VEA) stole $400,000. Go bitch to her about money. Say NO to LEA!
It’s kind of like the LGBTQ+ push. We mean no harm, we just want to be inclusive and all to participate. Meanwhile, a 14-year-old girl named Sage, was sex trafficked from VA to MD to TX. How? All because of the insidious LGBTQ+ movement.

In a Nutshell: Mounting debt tends to bring about feelings of being overwhelmed, especially for those already dealing with common mental disorders such as anxiety and depression. Bills can fall by the wayside for those dealing with both, which just compounds the issue. Job loss can also result when people lack the motivation to face the day head-on and remain productive. Organizations, like the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), provide the expertise and resources for people to cope with these disorders and learn to become mentally strong enough to take on these financial troubles.
Money can’t buy happiness, as the saying goes — but a lack of money can certainly lead to stress and unhappiness. This is especially true if a person has excessive debt, which can often lead to increased feelings of anxiety and depression, two types of common mental disorder.
“Often, people separate out financial health and mental health. But that need not be the case,” said Debra Kissen, Ph.D., M.H.S.A., Clinical Director at Light on Anxiety CBT Treatment Center, Clinical Fellow at the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), and Co-Chair of ADAA’s Public Education Committee. “They often intersect; one causes the other.”
In the 2013 article “The relationship between personal debt and specific common mental disorders,” a team of researchers headed by Dr. Howard Meltzer identified debt as a substantial risk factor in the emergence of common mental disorders.
Findings show that adults in debt were three times more likely to experience common mental disorders, regardless of the source of their debt; however, the rate of incidence was highest among people with multiple sources of debt, such as owing money to pawnbrokers and payday lenders.
Kissen and other mental health professionals dedicate themselves to helping people work through their anxiety and depression to achieve better mental well-being, which can lead to the type of stability and balance that rub off on financial health, as well.
The Two-Way Street of Financial Stress and Mental Health
Although depression and anxiety can both arise from financial stress, they are distinct mental conditions.
“They are different brain processes,” Kissen said. “They certainly can overlap. One can have anxiety and depression, or one can have depression only or anxiety only.”
Experiencing feelings of anxiety can cause people to actively avoid their financial stressors — almost as if they will go away if they don’t look at them.
“If somebody is really anxious, that can lead to avoiding opening that stack of mail, avoiding going to work and getting laid off, and generally just avoiding a lot of things,” Kissen said.
Depression, on the other hand, can lead to more passive avoidance of stressful financial situations.
“If somebody’s depressed and they’re not getting out of bed,” Kissen said, “it can cause them to get laid off or cause them to not pay their bills.”
And, if financial trouble isn’t the cause of their depression, it can certainly be a major detrimental effect. Meltzer’s study confirmed that people with debt tend to develop common mental disorders as a response. However, his team also found that people with anxiety and depression symptoms tend to accrue debt, as the conditions may make them less able to adequately deal with their finances.
“Financial issues can lead to anxiety and depression,” Kissen said. “It’s certainly a bi-directional relationship.”
Connecting Debt, Mental Health, and Addiction
Another study published in the January 2016 edition of Psychological Science found a tie between financial insecurity and increased purchases of over-the-counter pain medication.
For people facing uncertain financial futures, the simple prospect of debt is enough to lower their tolerance for pain and increase the need for pharmaceutical intervention. An increase in consumption of pain medication obviously means an increase in spending, which is also further detrimental to someone already in debt. It may likewise open the door to substance abuse as a form of self-medication.
Meltzer’s study found an association between debt, common mental disorders, and addictive behaviors, like gambling and substance abuse, but it did not find a multiplicative effect of debt and addiction on these disorders. In other words, the presence of addiction and debt together does not further increase the likelihood of developing a mental disorder.
However, the study particularly notes a body of evidence pertaining to the co-occurrence of these issues in certain populations with high exposure to debt or financial stress, such as students or the homeless.
Gambling is an obvious threat to financial well-being, and addiction to alcohol and other substances can likewise strain an already tight budget. Mood disorders, like depression, have also been linked with alcoholism and substance abuse, often leading to similar results. Alcoholism is also known to occur among those experiencing anxiety symptoms, and excessive consumption can lead to feelings of depression, and, after initial relief, an increase in anxiety.
Altogether, this can lead further into the vicious circle of debt, mental disorder, and dependence.
What to Expect When Seeking Help
Someone who experiences symptoms of anxiety or depression may think everyone is going through the same patterns and wonder if they need professional help.
“It doesn’t have to be really, really bad to get help,” Kissen said. However, when the condition is extended, begins impacting everyday life, and prevents someone from enjoying life, it’s definitely time to consult a professional.
But someone with debt-induced anxiety and depression symptoms might find themselves hesitant to seek help, since medication and ongoing therapy carry additional costs. However, dealing with anxiety or depression rooted in financial stress doesn’t have to intensify the problem.
“You can get a session or two to help come up with a plan to tackle your financial challenges,” Kissen said.
These sessions will take a cognitive-behavioral approach to treating common mental disorders. By addressing the mental processes and behaviors associated with financial stress, those experiencing symptoms will likely be better able to deal with the distressing stimuli that cause anxiety and depression.
“For depression, the key active ingredient is a behavioral activation piece,” Kissen said. “It’s basically like finding ways to force yourself to engage in behaviors that, at some point, you experienced as pleasurable — even if in the current situation you’re no longer feeling the desire to do them.”
Engaging in these behaviors will evoke the positive emotions associated with them, helping to improve the person’s mood. “You want to kind of force yourself, in different ways, to do the healthy behaviors first, and the feelings will catch up,” she said.
Treatment for anxiety, on the other hand, will involve confronting financial stressors directly.
“The key active ingredient in the treatment of anxiety is a lot of exposure-based work,” Kissen said. “You want to teach your brain to face different fears and learn that, number one, it’s often a false alarm, and there’s actually not a true danger; and number two, if a negative situation were to happen, that you’re much stronger and more able to cope than you feel in certain anxious moments.”
In essence, this is no different than overcoming a fear of dogs; by spending time around the animals, the phobic learns to remain calm and understand that a given dog doesn’t necessarily represent a threat. On the other hand, you wouldn’t want to throw a cynophobe in a room with a bunch of German shepherds — the effect would most likely be counterproductive. It’s better to start with a controlled encounter with, say, a beagle puppy. The same is true of addressing money-related issues.
“I would say it’s really important to practice taking the next small step forward,” Kissen said. “Often, people will think through everything that needs to get done and feel so exhausted that they’ll just want to fall over.”
Kissen recommends establishing small, measurable goals and a schedule of when you want to accomplish them. For example, if paying bills makes you anxious, don’t try to sit down and pay all of them at once; instead, spend 10 minutes each day working through the stack. This sort of limited exposure helps to limit and overcome negative emotional responses, while, at the same time, reducing the prevalence of the stress-inducing stimuli.
ADAA Helps Those Looking to Move Past Anxiety and Depression Symptoms Take Steps Toward Healthier Living
Everyone experiences depression and anxiety at some point in their life. Whether finances or some other issue is the root of the problem, people experiencing anxiety and depression symptoms shouldn’t feel isolated; help and support are readily available, particularly through the ADAA.
“It’s a really good resource for those struggling with financial concerns, to work with a mental health provider,” Kissen said
The organization’s website offers information to help people better understand their conditions and resources that can help them navigate their daily lives. ADAA also helps connect people with mental health care providers, who can provide professional, targeted help.
No, money can’t buy happiness — but it can reduce unhappiness stemming from depression and anxiety. And the ADAA’s professionals are there to help you along that path to financial stability through better mental health.

The call was first reported by Turkish state media, one day after Erdogan won over 51 percent in Sunday's vote.
"Trump called Erdogan tonight (Monday) and congratulated him on his success in the referendum," Turkish presidential sources said, quoted by the government run Anadolu news agency.
The reaction from Trump contrasts with EU leaders who have been reserved in their reaction to the narrow victory while monitors expressed concern over the "unlevel playing field".
The White House in a statement later on Monday said that the two leaders discussed a range of topics in addition to the vote in Turkey.
"President Trump thanked President Erdogan for supporting this action by the United States, and the leaders agreed on the importance of holding Syrian President Bashar al-Assad accountable," the statement continued.
"President Trump and President Erdogan also discussed the counter-ISIS campaign and the need to cooperate against all groups that use terrorism to achieve their ends."

Covid-19 has been killing financially many people in India. There are instances where people are spending their entire savings to save their loved ones.
One case where an IT employee has spent a whopping 18 lakhs to save his parents and his brother from the infection which has affected their lungs. He admitted them in a private hospital where he made payments for Oxygen supplies, remdesivir injection, immunoglobulin, Ventilator and other medicines. After 10 days of struggle the doctors could save his brother but his both parents passed away.
Another case where an old age couple went to cremation ceremony of their relatives and fell prey to corona infection and both couple died after a week in hospital and the amount they paid to hospital was 10 lakhs as per sources.
One more case where an IT employee admitted his father in the hospital and spent 6 lakhs for hospital bed, medicines and Oxygen supplies and for time being this father recovered and was sent home where the rest of the treatment is being continued as the family purchased Oxygen concentrator for 1 lakh in the black market.
Hospitals in major cities and towns are almost charging 35k to 1 lakh INR per day and for medicines and other expenses just sky is the limit and it differ from patient to patient.
All people in India are desperately waiting for the second wave to end to get out of this nightmare, now it’s up to the government to start the vaccination drive as soon as possible to end this misery physically and financially for its citizens.

The Boxing Day floods had left Kersal Dale riverside park covered in debris – and our Mersey Basin Rivers Trust St Valentines Day event saw us remove over 200 bin bags of rubbish, numerous barrels, chemical containers, and other assorted flood debris including a very manky teddy, a canoe, a beer barrel and half a dozen tyres.
And for the first time in 5 events – the sun shone!
It was a real community effort, with volunteers coming together from many local community groups. Salford Womens Institute, Friends Of Kersal Dale, Salford Friendly Anglers Society, Wellington St West Community Group, The Broughton Trust and @natureinsalford. We would also like to give special thanks to the Star Inn community pub who provided the most magnificent stew for volunteers at the end of the day. What better way to wind down after a few hours hard graft than with a FREE veggie stew and a pint of real ale.
We managed to clean up only 50% of the park – so will be organising another event on Sunday the 6th of March to complete the clean up of the park. You will be most welcome to join us.
Here are some pics from the day – and we will add more as they become available
What better way of showing your love for nature than spending a couple of hours on St Valentines day helping to clean up Salfords secret nature haven…
Kersal Dale – ever heard of it ???? Most haven’t. However it’s an incredible urban wildlife oasis which has been devastated by recent floods. Located on the outside bend of one of the rivers meanders, it became a dumping ground for the debris washed downstream during the freak river conditions on Boxing Day 2015…
Take a look at these pictures taken by Salford wildlife expert Dr Luke Blazejewski – no more words are needed.
We would love your help to restore this riverside public park.
Lastly – if you intend to come and help us – please let us know in advance by sending a quick email to firstname.lastname@example.org (we limit numbers taking part in our events to 50 volunteers )
Looking forwards to meeting you on the 14th Feb at 10am
Here is a brilliant clip which shows just how bad the devastation is

Lake Isabella is a reservoir in Kern County, California created by the earthen Isabella Dam. It was formed in 1953 when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dammed the Kern River at the junction of its two forks at Whiskey Flat. At 11,000 acres (4,500 ha), it is one of the larger reservoirs in California. The area is in the southern end of the Sierra Nevada range and the lake itself is located in low mountains at an elevation of approximately 2,500 ft (760 m) where summer temperatures reach over 100 degrees (°F) but low enough to avoid winter snows on the surrounding ridges.

Virtual carriers are only as healthy as the companies that provide their services -- and Australia's Kogan Mobile is learning this the hard way. Its wholesale cellular partner ispONE has just entered administration following a contract dispute with Telstra, ending all its deals for prepaid 3G services and leaving Kogan Mobile no choice but to wind down. Customers have already lost the ability to add or replenish services; they'll have up to 60 days after a Telstra notice to use any credit they have left, and 180 days to port their numbers elsewhere. While Kogan's shutdown may only affect about 100,000 people, it still represents an unfortunate loss of competition in a country with few major providers.

Moving Gelatine Plates — The World of Genius Hans
(Musea FGBG 4101.AR, 1972/1994, CD)
by Peter Thelen, Published 1994-08-01MGP was an early French underground band that eschewed the tendency of other bands of that period in France to propogate a left-wing political message. By contrast, MGP's lyrics (in English) were intentfully benign and sometimes silly, that is - if they used lyrics at all. A full half of the songs on this, their second album, are completely instrumental, and those that are not have a clear instrumental focus. The band was the four-piece of Gerard Pons (drums), Didier Thibault (bass), Gerard Bertram (guitars and vocals) and Maurice Helmlinger (trumpet, saxes, flute and hammond organ); in addition, guests contribute trombone, bassoon, vibes and backing vocals. Their music was a powerful jazz-rock with a strong improvisational quality, yet all was tightly arranged and played fluently. Because of Thibault's fuzz-bass and Helminler's smooth alto and tenor sax delivery - as well as the overall feel of their sound, one might be reminded of Soft Machine around their second or third album, yet MGPs tunes are more pure and playful, from a strictly compositional standpoint. Another point of reference might be early pre-zeuhl Magma, maybe circa 1001 Centigrades, as well as The Muffins (this was still a few years before the Muffins formed, but the comparison still holds true.) Their command of melodics is solid, yet the tunes take a few listens to sink in, mostly due to the band's not indulging in the endless use of hooks and repeats. Signature and tempo can change at any time unexpectedly, as the instrumental "Astromonster" capably illustrates. The vocals on "Funny Doll" give that song an almost Blood, Sweat & Tears-in-high-gear feel. The fourteen minute title track delivers some of the sweetest yet energetic sax soloing on the entire disc. The five bonus tracks Musea included were from the 1980 album by Moving, a band formed by Didier Thibault many years later in an attempt to re-create the MGP sound (other tracks from Moving's album are on the first MGP reissue). Unfortunately, these bonus tracks hardly live up to the quality of Genius Hans, yet if taken on their own are still quite good. In all, this is a most welcome reissue. In closing I should at least mention the cow's head decorated with parsley and cigar that graces the front cover (was this their answer to Blodwyn Pig's Ahead Rings Out?).

The Federal Reserve released the final results of its annual bank stress tests on Wednesday. Thirty-one of the 33 big banks that operate in the U.S. and are subject to stress testing passed. That includes all eight of the country’s biggest banks deemed “systemically important” to the financial system: Wells Fargo, State Street, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Bank of New York Mellon and Morgan Stanley. (Morgan Stanley was required to submit a new capital plan to address weaknesses in capital planning.)
This is the second round of stress-test results. The first round of results were released last week, on the eve of the United Kingdom’s Brexit vote, and were largely submerged by the global market turmoil that followed the victory for the “Leave” side in Britain.
The Federal Reserve implemented annual stress testing of banks after the financial crisis to try to ensure that in the case of a severe recession or financial panic, the biggest U.S. banks have enough capital and proper risk-management to weather losses, remain solvent and continue lending.
In the first round, the Fed found that all 33 big banks had enough capital to pass. In the final round, the Fed determined that 31 of the 33 can go ahead with planned cash distributions to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buybacks. The banks can return as much as two-thirds of their net projected profits to shareholders over the next four quarters.
The U.S. operations of Deutsche Bank and Banco Santander received failing grades in the final round of stress testing, meaning that some of their U.S. profits will be bottled up in the U.S.

Game of Thrones fan Asta Skujytė-Razmienė and her husband kicked their love of Thrones into overdrive this summer when they made a pilgrimage to Croatia to hunt down shooting locations and snap pictures from angles similar to those used on the show. The result is a lot of fun, a Thrones enthusiast adventure come true you can visit in its entirety here.
Below is Asta’s matching photograph of Fort Lovrijenac in Dubrovnik (the Red Keep)
The Thrones location search proved both easy and difficult, as Asta explains in her post on Bored Panda:
If you are a fan of something, sometimes you have to turn on the “hardcore mode”…Some places were really easy to find – Dubrovnik, for example, is just like one huge filming set. But other spots (like streets in Split) we found either after a looong search or just stumbled upon by an accident.
Below: Baroque Staircase (Dubrovnik) Becomes the Stairs to the Great Sept of Baelor (King’s Landing)
We don’t recommend pretending you’re Cersei and Meryn Trant as you ascend the stairs, though—that can’t lead anywhere good.

Next: a dock outside the wall of Drubrovnik’s Old Town, which stood in for the dock Sansa and Littlefinger conspired in Season 3.
And there’s more where that came from. Yes, Asta—I’m inspired! Great Photographs!
