Stop 1: Fern Canyon
I read in some blogs that this is the best 1-mile hike in California and was skeptical about it. But it is absolutely gorgeous! Btw, Jurassik Park was filmed there.
Fern Canyon is located in the Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, not far from our camping location. Seven different types of ferns grow on the 50 foot high walls, they create perfect environment for some of ancient species and amphibians. Home Creek runs through these walls.
The area is wet due to all running streams. We were prepared to get wet and put on our hiking boots, however, when we got there we saw small wooden footbridges installed across all streams. They made it very easy to walk though the canyon and not get wet. This hike is a 1-mile loop, but we decided to go back the same way to enjoy the canyon once again.
To get to this place take Davison Road from Highway 101. It is 8 miles of unpaved dirt road, but totally worth doing it. There are several streams on the road and you'll need to cross them. Their depth depends on the season, but they were small this time. We crossed all of them with our small car. Some people left their cars by the stream and hiked additional 1 mile.
Beginning of the trail, it is 0.1 mile to the canyon:
Some of my favorite pictures of the canyon:
Tiny waterfalls dripping from the walls:
Fern Canyon hike starts from the Gold Bluffs Beach, we stopped there for a stroll and to take these pics:
Stop 2: The Big Tree
This tree is estimated 1500 years old and has a circumference of 68 feet. It is located on the Newton Drury Scenic Parkway near the Prairie Creek Visitor Center. There are no clear signs on the road, we parked next to the first sign saying "Trailhead parking" and we found a sign leading to the tree. There are several larger hikes in the area too.
Stop 3: Crescent / Enderts Beach
On the way to these beaches we also stopped at Klamath River Overlook, but we couldn't see anything due to the heavy fog. If you take Enderts road along the Crescent Beach you'll get to the Crescent Beach Overlook point. From there a short 0.75 trail goes to the remote Enderts beach.
Stop 4: Howland Hill Road
After Fern Canyon this is my favorite part of our trip. Howland Hill Road is an unpaved one lane 10-mile road in-between of giant redwoods. Sometimes the road gets very narrow and you need to squeeze in between 2 trees. Passing is a fun part, especially in hiking areas, like Stout Grove. We stopped a little further from that area to avoid traffic and walked to the hiking trails. We made 1-mile loop trail, but there are several longer routes as well.
Not the best picture, but gives an idea of how the road looks like:
Stop 5: Summit Lake North campground in Lassen Volcanic National Park
To avoid repeating the same road we went up to Oregon and drove to Lassen Volcanic National Park via Mount Shasta area. Mount Shasta is seen on the bottom picture. It was unexpected to see it covered in snow. But even more surprisingly was to see more snow in Lassen Volcanic.
Summit North Lake campground is also nice. The only disadvantage is mosquitoes so don't forget to take anti mosquito spray if you decide to camp there!

Pope Francis sends a video message to judges from the Committee of Social Rights of Africa and America, urging them to promote justice, dignity and equality.
Pope Francis, on Monday, sent a message to participants at the virtual meeting of judges who are members of the Committee for Social Rights of Africa and America.
“Dear Judges, (men and women), of Africa and America,” said the Pope. “I rejoice to be able to address these words to you before you begin the beautiful work you have proposed. I congratulate you on this initiative of thinking, decoding and building the “new” social justice.
The Pope commended them for taking a break from their regular work to reflect on this issue and highlighted that this practice will help them acquire a “more complete dimension of their mission and social responsibility”. He also noted that the event is a “healing balm” in a society that looks with a certain distrust and suspicion at those in power and their ability to decide what is right.
The meeting was themed: “The construction of social justice. Towards the full application of the fundamental rights of people in vulnerable conditions.”
Judges like poets
Recalling a previous meeting at the Casina Pio IV, Pope Francis reminded the judges what he told them on that occasion, affirming that like the social movements, they too were poets.
Taking up the idea again, the Pope underlined that “the poet needs to contemplate, think, understand the music of reality and shape it in words.” The judges too – in a similar manner – “in every sentence, are faced with the happy possibility of making poetry;” poetry that heals the wounds of the poor, integrates the planet, protects the earth and all her descendants – “a poetry that repairs, redirects and nourishes.”
The Judge’s role
Exhorting the Judges, the Pope urged them to assume the grace they bear, with resolve and courage and be aware that “everything you can bring with your uprightness and commitment is very important.”
The Pope further advised them to “remember that when justice is truly just, that justice makes countries happy and their people worthy,” adding that “no sentence can be just, nor can any law be legitimate if what it produces is more inequality” or a “greater loss of rights, indignity or violence.”
Concluding, the Pope enjoined the participants to make of their poetry “a practice” in order to become “better poets and better judges.” He wished them a successful meeting and reminded them never to forget “that a poem that does not transform is just a handful of dead words.” – Vatican News

IBC: Potential game changer for asset reconstruction companies
The jury is still out on whether asset reconstruction companies (ARCs) have been able to turn around assets, but there is still huge interest in even setting up new ARCs. In a panel discussion at the summit, participants said the IBC could be a potential game changer for ARCs. The panellists were Harsh Pais, partner, Trilegal; Nalin Kumar, executive vice-president, IDBI Capital Markets; Sharad Bhatia, managing director, Multiples Alternate Asset Management; Venkattu Srinivasan, group head of asset reconstruction and structured credit and member of executive board at Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd; Eshwar Karra, chief executive officer, Phoenix ARC; and Harish Chander, executive vice-president, Edelweiss. K.V. Karthik, partner, forensic, financial advisory, Deloitte, moderated the discussion.
ARCs have now been in existence for 14 years, have ARCs been able to instil confidence?
Srinivasan: To understand the role of ARCs, we need to look at the background. When the Sarfesi (Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest) Act was introduced, the basic thinking of ARCs’ roles were reconstructing and rehabilitating companies, aggregating the debt and resolving the NPA problem.
But what happened thereafter (was that) ARCs were not reconstruction companies but asset warehousing companies. Banks have used them largely to transfer assets at fairly book value in order to minimize accounting and to have a larger period to write off. From these perspectives, ARCs have done their job.
Now, let’s look at the inhibiting factors. One, ARCs didn’t have much capital for the size of the problem they had. Two, the regulations didn’t allow ARCs to fund those companies in order to revive them. Typically, the ARCs which acquired the debt had to run through seven or eight years to hold and resolve the assets. They didn’t have the intermediary player in between who could bear some part of the brunt.
Largely, the structuring of transactions between banks and ARCs were not based on resolution capabilities, but who gave the highest value to the bids. To my mind, ARCs played as per the rules of the game but the rules of the game were set by the banks.\
Chander: I would want to add two points. One is ARCs are like a last resort in the sense that they are recovery agents. So give the assets which are in a run-down condition or which had no chance of getting revived because if revival was possibility, then bankers would have definitely tried their hands.
But this changed in 2015 when the Reserve Bank of India stipulated the 15:85 structure, which gave ARCs more skin in the game. That is when the operating assets also started getting sold to ARCs. Since I have jumped to 2015, it doesn’t mean that from 2003 to 2014 there were no success stories. There were a few.
But since 2015 onward, out of over 6,000 books that have been acquired, about 800 are in 5:95 and rest in 15:85 structure. We ourselves have revived one paper company, one port company, one logistics company and one power company, involving about Rs18,000 crore of debt.
ARCs have been largely acquiring assets based on sector-to-sector basis. Do you think they will be able to redeem these SRs (security receipts)?
Bhatia: Let’s go back to history. First, the bankers always knew that assets are being sold at an inflated price and the recoveries are going to be much lower.
Second, as an ARC, they were more interested in the fees because then there was just no alignment. It met the short-term requirements of both the bankers and ARCs. The longer the ARCs held on to the asset without doing any resolution, the more money they made.
To an extent it was sold with the objective of warehousing, which was met. But the real objective of resolution was not met. It should have gone to the ARCs with a better track record, which was not the case. Resolution has not happened except in very few cases.
Resolution was never the expectation. Is that right, Eshwar?
Karra: There are basically three products which ARCs deliver. One is the regulatory arbitrage. Unfortunately this constituted a major portion of the market in the past, but ARCs are actually designed to create the best structure for co-investment to happen. Going forward, since the regulatory arbitrage is over, selling to an ARC will entail more provisioning for the bank than holding on to its own books.
Now, we have to focus on other two main factors. One is bringing co-investment which means putting out capital and second is resolution. Resolution, both in terms of enforcement and management turnaround. I think this is what we were designed to do at start.
I am quite positive with things that are happening and also with the new regulation change which allows ARCs to hold upto 100% of the turnaround company. We are going to get incentivized and I see greater prospects in the future.
In the changed environment now, having IBC and others in place, do you think ARCs can actually look at turning around assets now?
Kumar: I think they have no choice anymore and therefore they need to add the skill sets.
The problem in the system is fairly acute at this point in time because the problems really started more after 2010. What happens generally is there’s a denial period and ARCs took the brunt of the denial. So it was all shoved under the carpet and the hope was the economy will take off or something will happen, which didn’t work. ARCs are now looking at different ways of performing similar tasks.
The government and the regulators have realized that the capital with the ARCs is not sufficient. So on one side they’re pushing banks to recognize the problem and do the resolutions. While on the other, they are enhancing capital sources to take over the problem. So today, there are many more players with capital who have a chance of coming in.
Do you think the ARCs have the size (capital base) to be really active in the stressed assets space?
Pais: If we look at ARCs as a pooling vehicle, there is no reason why over a period of time they will not have access to capital given the track record. The government has now expanded the types of investors who can hold assets and there is already a lot of interest. Over time, they may attract a disproportionate share of capital because they do have some of the tools and advantages which other players in the market for distressed assets space don’t have.
What are the specific reasons for a lot of interest of private equity (PE) players in ARCs?
Pais: PE players are taking a long view and they feel that over time the disadvantage from the additional provisioning requirement will be overcome simply because banks will have to remove assets from their books. It also seems a natural opportunity to aggregate debts and take a large positions on the insolvency code.
Kumar: PE is simply seeing it as an opportunity to create a return which is higher than what they can get in many other asset classes.
But with increase in provisioning norms that have been in existence now, do you still see banks selling a lot of assets to ARCs?
Kumar: Clearly, the playing field has changed and the banks have been pushed in a different direction to actually recognize the problem and do something about it. The fundamental problem is that in the process of lending, NPAs will get created but banks are not designed to resolve the NPAs. The banks do not have that skill sets and those assets have to move to a different entity which has the skill sets. Today the banking system has more choices to sell its assets.
There are a lot of infrastructure companies that might come up for restructuring. Do you think ARCs are equipped to handle this?
Bhatia: The ARCs will have to raise money based on their resolution capabilities. In the meantime, ARCs will probably have to partner with PE funds and management teams. ARCs by themselves cannot do it but a network, which has a spill-over effect, will be able to deliver.
Karra: All the media and PE funds are all focusing only on large accounts. But there are over 500 accounts admitted in NCLT...Out of 500, there are 480 odd cases which have no bidders. Now with the new ordinance coming in where the promoter can’t bid for those assets, there are only ARCs who will come in and who have to hold these.

Competitive shooting is a blast, if you’ll pardon the pun. The first time I ran a course with my AK back in the day–this is before I saw the light and embraced the beauty that is the AR-pattern rifle–I said it was the most fun I’d ever had with my clothes on.
Competitive shooters exist in all 50 states and it covers anything from trap shooting to three gun competitions.
Yet for younger shooting sports athletes, the anti-gun crowd’s successes have created significant issues for them.
When Gianni Giordano shot his first rifle at age three, he couldn’t have known that by age 15 he’d be a Grand Master in the Limited division of the United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA). Now 19 years old, he also had no way of knowing that the Biden administration and officials in some of America’s most-populous states would move to take away his Second Amendment rights, at least until his 21st birthday.
Giordano just wanted to shoot. And shoot he has. He has claimed the USPSA National Limited Junior Champion title six times. Outside of shooting, Gianni helps manage his family’s farm and is both a machinist and an entrepreneur.
Clearly, Gianni has proven himself to be a responsible, motivated and capable young man who is more skilled with a handgun than most people, yet he is currently unable to buy one from a licensed dealer even though he is a legal adult; in fact, until he turned 18, it was illegal for him to even possess the handgun and ammunition he used in competitions without his parents’ explicit permission.
“Some people don’t understand that shooting is a sport,” said Gianni. There are many different disciplines, several of which are conducted at the Olympic and college levels. “Being a sponsored competitive shooter has allowed me to educate many,” he said. “The responsibility that comes with this is huge. When people see me, at my age, having this responsibility and handling firearms with respect, it opens their eyes. It is possible, with education and familiarity, for people to be safe. We prove it daily when we compete.”
Go read the whole thing at America’s 1st Freedom.
And these young competitive shooters are legitimately facing serious challenges, including the fact that many are having to jump through hoops just to go to the range to train and do so lawfully.
But let’s also remember that there’s an effort underway that is working to prevent more of these athletes from coming up.
Somewhere along the way, people thought gun companies were marketing to young people. I have no idea how they figured that, but they did and because they’re statist jackwagons, they figured there needed to be a law in place.
That law, however, has directly impacted the marketing of shooting sports, not just the sale of firearms. Youth shooting events–which generally follow these young people learning how to handle firearms safely–are swiftly becoming a thing of the past in some states.
Competitive shooters, however, aren’t the issue. Take a look at the numbers of young people who have shot competitively over the years. Now, look at how many committed any form of violent crime.
I can’t say the rate is 0.0 because there are just too many to make that assumption safely, but the rate is far lower than you’d find among football or basketball players, that’s for damn sure.
For all the gun control crowd’s claims that they don’t want to inhibit the lawful use of firearms, these young competitive shooters’ experiences make it very clear that the policies they push do exactly that.
Meanwhile, young gang bangers are carrying firearms without jumping through any of those hoops.
Just something to think about.

If skiing is not for you, Ilgaz offers long walks under snow laden pine boughs or romantic trips by horse-drawn sleigh through the woods. When you pause to take a breath on the slopes overlooking the deep valleys, do not forget to shout a greeting to the now covered peaks high above.
The Ilgaz skiing season lasts from 1 December to 30 March. There are three natural ski slopes, where not a single tree has been felled. As well as the main 1000 metre run there are two other superb runs of 750 metres and 1500 metres respectively, all served by a 1000 metre ski lift and 750 metre baby lift. The powder snow here provides excellent skiing material, which combined with a fairly long winter sports season is rapidly taking Ilgaz out of the realm of imagination and onto the holiday map.

Many wonder how to get rid of brain fog. We tend to receive the same generic advice: sleep enough, watch your stress, eat well, and stay active. You know this already. What many don’t know is that to effectively get rid of brain fog, taking the correct supplements can drive the most significant results. This article will cover the basics and then discuss how Regen Labs’ Neuro Spark can effectively help get rid of brain fog for good.
RELATED: Brain Fog Cause and Treatment
The Basics of How to Get Rid of Brain Fog
1. Sleep Enough
Everyone already knows that to reduce brain fog, you need to get enough sleep. How much is enough? It is recommended that you get 7-9 hours of sleep. It helps to go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time. It’s also important to avoid large meals, caffeine, alcohol, and electronic devices before bedtime.
2. Watch Your Stress
Lowering stress levels is vital to get rid of brain fog. Studies show that the process of meditation can lower stress levels. It also enhances cerebral blood flow in the frontal and anterior cingulate regions of the brain. This leads to increased attention and decision-making efficiency.
3. Eat Well
You’re told that if you eat well, you’ll get rid of brain fog, but how? One simple and effective change in your diet is to lower your sugar intake. When you eat a sugary snack, your blood sugar spikes and then crashes; when it crashes, you become irritable and unable to focus, hence brain fog. So, if you lower your sugar intake, your blood sugar will stabilize, and it will help get rid of brain fog.
4. Stay Active
There are many ways to stay active, both mentally and physically. Doing cardio, lifting weights, solving crossword puzzles are all common routes. But, one of the most effective ways to stay active is to start your garden. Studies show there are many benefits to gardening, including increased cognitive function. Plus, you will spend more time outside, which will give your body more Vitamin D!
RELATED: Muscle Recover Beyond the Basics
Get Rid of Brain Fog for Good with Neuro Spark
Like muscle recovery, general advice is okay if you’re looking for average results. Yet, many are interested in going beyond the basics of how to get rid of brain fog. For example, let’s say you’re sleeping enough, watching your stress, eating well, staying active, and you’re still experiencing brain fog. What should you do then?
If that’s the case for you, there is one more important thing you can do: add supplements. Regen Labs’ Neuro Spark is a blend of nine potent ingredients designed to get rid of brain fog for good. Let’s take a look at how the key ingredients can help.
5. Huperzine A
Huperzine A is an essential ingredient in Neuro Spark. It works by inhibiting the breakdown of acetylcholine. This improves the brain cells’ ability to communicate. If your brain cells are communicating well, your memory and cognitive functions will improve too.
Sulbutiamine helps get rid of brain fog by increasing thiamine in the brain. Thiamine, also known as Vitamin B1, is critical because it controls how your body turns food into energy. If your body can efficiently turn food into energy, it will be better able to operate throughout the day. This is an effective way to get rid of brain fog.
Another key ingredient in Neuro Spark is Bacopa. Bacopa is an herb that has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. It helps get rid of brain fog by lowering your cortisol levels. When your cortisol goes down, you will stress less. As mentioned before, watching your stress is important when it comes to brain fog, and bacopa can be a big help.
Centrophenoxine is a cholinergic compound of dimethylethanolamine. It works by increasing acetylcholine levels in the brain. Acetylcholine is the major neurotransmitter that plays a huge role in memory and learning.
9. Trans-Ferulic Acid
Trans-Ferulic Acid is a phenolic phytochemical. It is commonly found in many different foods. It does a couple of powerful things such as catalyzing photoprotection to minimize skin damage from the sun. But, in terms of how to get rid of brain fog, it helps to support memory and learning capabilities. It is another crucial ingredient in Regen Labs Neurospark.
Say Goodbye to Brain Fog
How to get rid of brain fog is not complicated. If you want effective results, you need to take specific actions. First, cover the basics. Then, take advantage of Regen Labs’ Neuro Spark supplement and say goodbye to brain fog.
How do you get rid of brain fog? Let us know in the comment section below!

What did we learn from the first general election TV debate?
20 November 2019, 00:40
Here are the highs and lows of the first televised general election debate, where the Conservative and Labour leader went head-to-head.
Boris Johnson attacked Jeremy Corbyn on Brexit, claiming Labour's position is unclear.
Jeremy Corbyn focused on the NHS, accusing the prime minister of secretly working to sell off the service to private companies in the US.
From the outset Boris Johnson made it clear that he has "an oven-ready Brexit deal" and warned of more "dither and delay" under Labour.
The audience applauded him when he said he has been challenged to mint a new 2020 Brexit coin.
Jeremy Corbyn on the other hand, said the prime minister's plan to get Brexit sorted by the end of January is "nonsense".
Mr Johnson challenged the Labour leader about what his Brexit stance would be in a future referendum, asking: "Are you going to campaign for Leave or Remain?"
Mr Corbyn replied: "I want to bring people together, therefore there will be a referendum in which that decision will be made by the British people and our government will abide by that decision."
Laughter could be heard from some in the audience as Mr Corbyn sought to explain his Brexit position.
Mr Corbyn accused the prime minister of conducting "secret meetings" with the US about the NHS and a future trade deal.
The Labour leader said: "What we know of what Mr Johnson has done is a series of secret meetings with the United States in which they were proposing to open up our NHS markets as they call them to American companies."
Boris Johnson said the NHS would never be up for sale and that the Labour leader's claim that the health service would be on the table in US negotiations was an "absolute invention" and "completely untrue".
He argued that Mr Corbyn was making his NHS allegations to try to "conceal the void at the heart of his Brexit policy".
Jeremy Corbyn stressed that the institution is suffering under "incredible pressure." He said A&E performance is "at its worst ever".
Boris Johnson says the Tories are determined to fund the NHS "for the long term." He says they want to upgrade 20 hospitals and build 40 new ones and bring in more GPs and nurses, and have a better NHS for patients as well as staff, but said that a strong economy is needed to do so.
The pair were pressed on their numerous spending promises.
When it was put to him that his predecessor Theresa May had told voters two years ago that there was no "magic money tree", the prime minister delivered his jibe at the Labour leader, saying that Mr Corbyn has somehow found a "money forest."
Mr Corbyn said Labour would "end austerity" because it had been "so brutal on the lives of so many people".
When asked about anti-Semitism, Corbyn called it an "evil" and a "scourge". He said Labour has investigated every single case of anti-Semitism in its party and they take it very seriously. He says politicians must stand against racism in any form.
Boris Johnson's response was that Labour has shown a "complete failure of leadership" over anti-Semitism.
One of the features of the debate was a quick-fire round of questions, in which the leaders were asked to respond yes or no.
Is the monarchy fit for purpose?
Jeremy Corbyn said: "It needs a bit of improvement."
Boris Johnson said: "The monarchy is beyond reproach".
Is Prince Andrew is fit for purpose?
Mr Corbyn highlighted how sympathies should be with Jeffrey Epstein's victims, which Mr Johnson echoed.
"I think there are very, very serious questions that must be answered and nobody should be above the law, but the primary position ought to be the proper treatment of those people who were victims of the most appalling behaviour by apparently Epstein and many others," Mr Corbyn said.
A lighter question was: What present would you leave under the Christmas tree for each other this year?
Mr Corbyn said: "I know Mr Johnson likes a good read, so what I would probably leave under the tree for him would be A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens and he could then understand how nasty Scrooge was."
Responding, Mr Johnson said: "I would probably leave a copy - since you want a literary reference - a copy of my brilliant Brexit deal."
Pressed by host Julie Etchingham to give a non-political answer, Mr Johnson said: "Mr Corbyn shares my love of plants and trees. I think maybe some damson jam," to which Mr Corbyn said: "I love damson jam."
The prime minister claimed that Mr Corbyn had been unable to answer "fundamental questions" on Brexit and whether he would grant a second Scottish independence referendum.
"If he can't answer those questions tonight, I don't think he's fit to lead our country," the prime minister said.
Mr Corbyn said a vote for Labour was a "vote for hope".
"This is a once-in-a-generation election to end privatisation and give the National Health Service the funding it needs. To give people the final say and get Brexit sorted," he said.
Following the debate, a YouGov snap poll suggested 51% of Britons believed Mr Johnson won the debate compared to 49% for Mr Corbyn.

The accident happened near 12th Street and Egan Drive. Police say they received multiple 911 calls about the collision at 1:20 p.m. Police then shut down Egan Drive between West 10th Street and Highland Drive. Traffic was rerouted onto Glacier Highway for more than 3 hours.
Capital City Fire and Rescue declared Blatnick dead at the scene. He had been thrown off his 2001 Honda motorcycle.
According to police, Blatnick was driving outbound on Egan Drive at the same time a 2001 Subaru was turning left from Egan inbound onto 12th Street.
A witness told police that the motorcycle slowed down temporarily and then sped up suddenly, striking the front passenger-side fender of the car.
Police say 41-year-old Juneau resident Laura Hosey was driving the car. She was not injured. Police say she displayed no signs of intoxication.
The investigation into the fatality continues.

Closing Schools: Making Room for Charters
published January 25, 2011
- - 97 Closed Schools
- - 25 Closing Schools
- - 125 Charter Schools
Most of the 122 schools that the Department of Education has already closed or is planning to close are located in the neighborhoods where the city’s 125 charter schools are concentrated: the South Bronx, Harlem and central Brooklyn. This may be a coincidence, but it certainly doesn’t look like one.
If you map all the charters over the already-closed 97 schools and the 25 planned closings, they show a disturbing pattern that disproportionately affects communities of color and poor neighborhoods.
And many of the closing schools are not failing. They just serve high-needs kids, many of whom have not received the level of services they require to succeed.
Ten of the schools on this year’s DOE closing list have charter schools in their buildings that plan to expand or charters are scheduled to move in. They are all located in the South Bronx, Harlem, East Harlem and central Brooklyn.
Why is the DOE shutting down neighborhood schools and giving the space to charter operators? Why is it closing schools that serve the most vulnerable students and replacing them with charter schools that generally do not take such high-needs students, and admit children by lottery? What kind of school system is it building?
The DOE needs to support struggling schools, not walk away from them.

4 Ways To Kill Your Sugar Addiction Naturally
The average person consumes around 24 kilograms of sugar annually and it’s even more in developed countries. Sugar addiction is a real thing. But, contrary to popular belief, refined carbohydrates have actually been declining since 1999. Regardless, they are still an enormous problem for our health and are clearly a contributing factor to the obesity epidemic.
Did you know that 68% of men and 97% of women report experiencing cravings for certain foods? I wonder how much of these “certain foods” have sugar.
Sugar addiction is all too familiar for many people and causes a great deal of anguish for those who are trying to lose weight and improve their health. In the following article, I’m going to present four methods I think are very effective for combating sugar addiction.
Is Sugar Actually Addictive?
Before we get started I should make a point about my wording “addiction” in regards to sugar. This is a controversial statement as many have made some valid arguments against the idea that sugar addiction actually exists. I do agree that this is perhaps true when we compare it to narcotics which are physically addictive.
However, I think that anything which follows the basic feedback loop of craving, reward and relapse can reach a point where it fits the definition of an addictive relationship.
The definition of addiction is “compulsive engagement in rewarding stimuli despite adverse consequences”, according to the Journal of Addiction and Rehabilitation; I think that stuffing your face with cake and not caring about the consequences (obesity) suffices as fitting this description.
1. Control Your Blood Sugar And Achieve Satiety
Insulin is a hormone produced by beta cells in the pancreas and it helps us regulate and balance our blood sugar. Diabetics either don’t produce insulin or are insulin resistant, meaning that the muscle, fat and liver don’t respond correctly to the hormone.
The constant rise and fall of blood sugar caused by eating sugar (further exacerbated by the frequency of meals) often results in a vicious cycle of seeking sugary foods when your blood sugar falls.
If you want to truly overcome sugar addiction then it’s important to find a way to balance your blood sugar levels.
There are three macronutrients which you need to eat more of as a replacement for sugary food in order to balance your blood sugar levels.
These three macronutrients are protein, fat and fibre. Protein, fat and fibre all increase your satiety. In other words, they make you feel full. Fibre literally expands in your stomach.
You’ve probably experienced this feeling after eating beans, which are both high in fibre and protein.
Protein has always been symbolic of weight loss and good health for this very reason. Protein also takes more energy to digest and thus increases your metabolic rate as well as changing some key appetite based hormones (1, 2, 3)
However, even though I’m recommending you keep an eye on your protein, it’s important to recognise that most people are not deficient in protein and so what you should be focusing on is the quality of protein you’re getting, rather than excessive amounts.
Conversely too much protein can raise your blood glucose to similar levels of certain carbohydrate-based foods and also increase the risk for some cancers (4).
Good sources of protein include free-range eggs, grass-fed beef, fish and beans. Beans such as kidney beans are sources of protein, however, soybeans, in particular, are superior as they offer a source of complete protein. Dairy is also high in protein, but it is questionable whether dairy is something you should eat a lot of or any at all.
Furthermore, including more fat into your diet is a great way to increase your satiety and control your blood sugar as fat is not very insulinogenic.
Although saturated fat is not bad per se, and grass-fed butter, as well as coconut oil, can be a quality source of fat – especially when used for cooking – it’s important to focus on consuming more omega-3 fatty acids and reasonable amounts of saturated fat.
What you must avoid is omega-6 fatty acids (found in refined vegetable oils such as cottonseed and soybean), and of course hydrogenated trans fats.
Nuts such as almonds, pistachios and walnuts in particular (high in omega-3) are good choices for increasing fat in your diet, as well as protein. Using extra-virgin olive oil, eating salmon and other fatty fish, as well as avocado, are choices I highly recommend you incorporate as your primary sources of dietary fat.
Fibre is going to keep you full for longer, but what is extraordinary about fibre is that it lessens the significance of blood sugar spikes. Let me give you an example for context.
The sugar in fruit is the same as sugar in processed foods. Biochemically it can be said to be the same. The difference and the reason why fruit clearly doesn’t make one fat is that fruit has phytonutrients and antioxidants, sure, but fruit is also very high in fibre. Fibre lessens the significance of the blood sugar spike and so the effects of eating kiwi-fruit versus a candy bar are very different.
There are two different types of fibre, soluble and insoluble. Both are incredibly important for our health, digestion as well as preventing disease.
The best way to ensure you’re getting enough fibre is to eat a wide variety of whole-foods. A sign you’re doing so is to see whether your plate has a wide variety of colours.
Colours in vegetables generally signify certain concentrations of specific vitamins. For example, dark green vegetables are particularly high in magnesium.
Eating fruits such as berries are great as a replacement for sugary foods. They aren’t very high in sugar, they are packed full of antioxidants, phytonutrients and they also taste delicious. However, make your priority to focus on low-glycemic foods where possible.
2. Take Care Of Your Gut Microbiome
Most of us know that the human brain is comprised of billions of neurons which keep our fatty organ functioning. However, what many don’t know is that the gut also contains a complex network of neurons. Yes, you heard that right. There’s a good reason why our gut is sometimes referred to as our second brain.
You’ve likely heard of probiotics. We have good bacteria and bad bacteria which live in our gut. Probiotics are really important because they help to get rid of yeast in the gut. Yeast, as well as bad bacteria, feed off of sugar in our digestive system.
Obese people have a lower microbial diversity than those of a healthy weight (5). It’s important to have a large variety of microbiome inside your gut.
Several strains of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus actually improve anxiety and depression-like behaviour.
Hippocrates the ancient physician once said that all disease begins in the gut and he’s right, so much of it does.
What’s fascinating is that recent research is diving into the idea that certain cognitive disorders such as autism are becoming candidates for potentially being alleviated by modifying the microbiome in the gut.
Because so many people’s sugar addiction comes from an emotional drive to seek comfort and well-being in times of stress and anxiety, then it becomes clear that there’s some potential in alleviating sugar addiction through dietary choices which improve gut health.
Serotonin is tightly linked with mood, social behaviour, sleep, memory as well as appetite and digestion. Why? Because 90% of this serotonin is produced inside your gut.
Increasing omega-3 fatty acids is particularly beneficial for the gut as omega-3 is anti-inflammatory. However, too much saturated fat without adequate polyunsaturated fat can cause problems for the gut if consumed in excess.
If you’re going to supplement with omega-3, which is commonly known as fish oil, then I recommend using krill oil instead because the fatty acids such as DHA are more bioavailable in krill oil due to phospholipids.
If you’re going to purchase a probiotic for your gut then go for it, but remember that you should be prioritising the food you eat as opposed to the supplements you take. Probiotic yoghurt (if tolerated) is a great option, as well as kimchi, pickles, tempeh and other fermented foods.
We’ve established that probiotics are live bacteria, prebiotics however (often mistaken as probiotics) aren’t. Prebiotics nourish good bacteria, they feed and fertilise their successful development in the gut.
Prebiotics are basically a special form of fibre, found in a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. They are particularly abundant in the skin of plant foods. So think twice before peeling away the skin on your sweet potato or apple.
Prebiotics have also been shown to increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) which is a protein which also increases through consumption of antidepressants (6). Additionally, prebiotics have been shown to reduce cortisol and help with emotional processing (7).
3. Try Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting is known for weight loss. However, what’s clear is that it’s no more effective for overall weight loss when variables are controlled for (8). remember I said “weight loss” and not “fat loss” (8).
Fasting will reduce your insulin levels and allow you to control your blood glucose. Furthermore, there have been studies which have shown intermittent fasting is beneficial for the good bacteria in your gut (9).
What’s also great about fasting is that it’s a test of discipline and willpower. Having the willpower to periodically abstain from food transfers over to the rest of your life.
The good news is that even if intermittent fasting didn’t help with sugar addiction and gut health, more and more research continues to reveal benefits of fasting for longevity and general well-being.
4. Control Your Stress Levels
Cortisol is a steroid hormone responsible for regulating a lot of processes in the body. It’s most well-known for being the “stress hormone”. Too much cortisol can become problematic.
High cortisol is tightly correlated with insulin levels. If you map them together on a graph, they follow each other around. Being more stressed leads to emotional eating and I believe is one of the main reasons we have such a problem with food. Our lifestyles make it inevitable that we should seek out pleasures to balance the amount of stress we experience in the busy modern world.
I think one promising solution to stress-based sugar addiction is to meditate on a daily basis and/or practice some form of mindfulness.
Mindfulness decreases cortisol and less cortisol is correlated with less emotional eating; it’s simple.
Living a more relaxed lifestyle and reducing the circulating stress hormone cortisol in your body will reduce the emotional need for you to seek out comfort through sugary foods, as your comfort is being generated internally.
Be sure to sleep between 7-9 hours to reduce cortisol. Anything less or anything more than this duration for most people is going to cause trouble.
Sleep is the time your body has to regenerate and recharge, so don’t underestimate the effects that your sleep can actually have on your cravings and desires for certain foods.
• Control your blood sugar levels through the food you eat.
• Focus on taking care of your gut health.
• Try intermittent fasting.
• Reduce stress in order to control cortisol levels.
Reframe who you are as a person. Stop counting the days you haven’t eaten sugar, stop saying “I can’t eat sugar. Start saying “I don’t” and understand that quitting sugar is not only good for the size of your waist but also down to the most fundamental gene expression in the body.
Sugar feeds cancer, rots your teeth and isn’t something we should embrace in moderation.

b. Travel Dates: Determine the proposed travel dates, including the departure and return dates. Align these dates with your intended itinerary and ensure they are within the permitted visa duration.
c. Flight Details: Research potential flights for your itinerary, including flight numbers, departure and arrival airports, and layovers, if any. Note that dummy tickets do not need to be confirmed bookings; they can be reservations or itineraries.
d. Additional Details: Depending on the visa requirements, you may need to include information such as onward travel, hotel reservations, or travel insurance. Gather all relevant details to create comprehensive dummy tickets.
- Customizing Dummy Tickets
To create customized dummy tickets that align with your travel plans, follow these steps:
a. Choose a Reputable Source: Look for reliable online sources that offer dummy ticket services. Research customer reviews and ratings to ensure their credibility and authenticity.
b. Select a Template: Choose a dummy ticket template that closely resembles a genuine flight itinerary. Templates should include clear sections for passenger names, travel dates, flight numbers, and destinations.
c. Enter the Information: Input the gathered information accurately into the template. Ensure that all fields are completed correctly, paying close attention to spelling and formatting.
d. Customize Additional Details: If required, include additional details such as hotel reservations, return flights, or travel insurance information. Make sure these details align with your proposed itinerary and supporting documents.

c. Recommendations and Referrals: Seek recommendations from friends, family, or fellow travelers who have previously used dummy tickets for their visa applications. Their first-hand experiences can help you find trustworthy sources.
- Important Considerations
When creating dummy tickets for your visa application, keep the following considerations in mind:
a. Visa Requirements: Familiarize yourself with the specific visa requirements of the destination country. Ensure that dummy tickets are accepted as proof of travel plans and follow the acceptable formats.
b. Timeliness: Create dummy tickets within a reasonable timeframe before submitting your visa application. Ensure that the travel dates on the dummy tickets align with your intended travel period.
c. Consistency: Ensure consistency between the information provided in your visa application form, supporting documents, and dummy tickets. Any discrepancies may raise questions and affect the credibility of your application.
d. Verification Possibility: While not always required, visa authorities may verify the authenticity of dummy tickets. Ensure that your dummy tickets closely resemble real flight itineraries, containing accurate flight details, to avoid potential issues during the verification process.
e. Supporting Documents: Consider including additional supporting documents, such as hotel reservations, travel insurance, or tour bookings, to enhance the authenticity of your dummy tickets and strengthen your visa application.

But if the FBI is staffed by people who target those with political beliefs different than their own, mislead federal judges when applying to spy on Americans, and who are not stymied by the checks and balances already in place, it follows that all sorts of bygone federal surveillance efforts ought to be investigated; that all sorts of Americans have had their rights violated; that all sorts of people ought to be fired from the FBI; and that stronger checks and balances, or other significant reforms, are required in order to prevent future abuses.
Republicans are urging none of those steps. Nunes, who chairs the congressional committee that oversees American intelligence agencies, has not made any effort to better protect regular Americans—only the head of his political party. Either he doesn’t believe his own claims or he is shockingly negligent.
Hannity rarely, if ever, mentions a victim of misconduct by the FBI or the intelligence community unless they hold elected office and have an (R) next to their name.
While posing as populists, this faction of the GOP has dedicated itself mostly to protecting the billionaire who happens to be America’s most powerful person. Masses of Americans on the left and right are left to fend for themselves.

Advanced jet training still relies on old concepts and solutions that are no longer efficient when considering the current and forthcoming changes in air combat. The cost of those old solutions to develop and maintain combat pilot skills are important, adding even more constraints to the training limitations. The requirement of having a trainer aircraft able to perform also light combat aircraft operational mission is adding unnecessary complexity and cost without any real operational advantages to air combat mission training.
Thanks to emerging technologies, the JANUS project will study the feasibility of a brand-new concept of agile manoeuvrable training aircraft and an integrated training system, able to provide a live, virtual and constructive environment. The JANUS concept is based on a lightweight, low-cost, high energy aircraft associated to a ground based Integrated Training System providing simulated and emulated signals, simulated and real opponents, combined with real-time feedback on pilot’s physiological characteristics: traditionally embedded sensors are replaced with emulated signals, simulated opponents are proposed to the pilot, enabling out of sight engagement. JANUS is also providing new cost effective and more realistic solutions for “Red air aircraft” missions, organised in so-called “Aggressor Squadrons”.

A tip from Ellie Devyatkin, Commercial Corridor Manager, Frankford Community Development Corporation
The Citizens Planning Institute (CPI) is the education and outreach arm of the Philadelphia City Planning Commission.
CPI’s main programming is a seven-week course that empowers citizens to take a more effective and active role in shaping the future of their neighborhoods and of Philadelphia through a greater understanding of city planning and the steps involved in development projects. The course includes six evening classes: three introductory classes on planning issues and principles, land use and zoning, and the development process; and three electives, the topics for which change every session.
The course runs every Spring and Fall. Each participant is also required to complete a final project in order to earn their Certificate of Completion as a Philadelphia Citizen Planner, which they receive at a public ceremony.
The application period for the fall session of the Citizens Planning Institute has opened.
Who might want to take this course? Any Frankford resident interested in economic development. If you go to the NAC zoning meetings this would be a natural. If you want jobs to come to Frankford and want to be a part of that process, this is for you. If you are active in a civic association, it would be beneficial to your group.
See this link for course information and cost. Yes it does have a cost but if you represent a group, get them to foot the bill.


Celsius Network has announced that it has increased its investment in Bitcoin mining in North America, investing an additional $300 million.
Celsius aims to expand its Bitcoin mining hash rate in North America
The $300 million investment follows Celsius’ $200 million investment earlier this year in Bitcoin mining equipment and stakes in Bitcoin mining companies Core Scientific, Rhodium Enterprises, and mining pool Luxor Technologies. According to the report, Celsius now has a mining fleet of about 22,000 Bitcoin ASIC miners, most of which are Bitmain’s latest generation AntMiner S19 series.
In an interview with The Block, Alex Mashinsky, CEO of Celsius, said that Celsius has invested in Bitcoin mining to expand its proprietary Bitcoin mining hash rate and performance capacity in North America. He explained, “These are commitments for this year and next year – so we will be adding [mining] capacity through the time until the end of next year.”
China’s crackdown on the mining sector created an opportunity
It’s quite logical for Celsius to invest in Bitcoin mining in North America, as many investors see it as an opportunity created by China’s crackdown on the mining sector. Twelve months ago, China led the market in hash rate by a wide margin, but recently North American Bitcoin miners have taken the lead. Foundry USA, for example, recently became the second-largest Bitcoin mining pool in the world after taking up a 14.39% share of the network at the time of writing.
Another notable fact about the investment is that Celsius uses the Bitcoin it mines as part of its existing lending business. The company lends Bitcoin to institutions to earn interest and pays out Bitcoin interest to customers with deposits. Celsius began entering the mining sector in 2020, lending and leasing equipment to mining companies like Core Scientific and Argo Blockchain for their expansion plans.

Do you find that your addiction is out of control?
- Do you abuse drugs or alcohol most days?
- Do you use drugs to help you cope with stress or a past trauma?
- Is your addiction impacting your ability to work or to be in a relationship?
- Do you want to find a way to stop your addiction?
Many people occasionally drink alcohol or use drugs. Alcohol and marijuana are readily available in most areas and people might use it recreationally. However, drug or alcohol addiction is a chronic disease that severely impacts a person’s life. The first time a person uses a drug is usually voluntary but continued drug use alters the brain and can interfere with the ability of the person to stop using the drug. This is the reason that drug abusers can relapse after successfully stopping to use a drug. To overcome addiction people require addiction treatment.
But how can you know if you are recreational user or have an addition disorder? One of the ways to determine if you are an addict is if you continue to use drugs despite severe consequences at work or at home. Also is the drug abuse impacting your work performance or your relationships with family and friends? The symptoms of addiction include a need to use the drug regularly, intense cravings, needing more of the drug to get the same effect, spending more time to get and use the drug, and doing risky things while under the influence of the drug.
You might think that you can cope with your addiction. But addiction can be overwhelming. You might find yourself consumed with drug use and not able to function at work, missing workdays and turning in assignments late. Addiction can also impact your thoughts and feelings and cause you to neglect your health needs and your appearance. Therefore it is important to find a way to address your disorder with addiction treatment before it consumes your life.
Addiction is a common disorder
Addiction is a common disorder impacting approximately 24 million people age 12 and older. People can abuse legal or illegal drugs and prescription drugs can be as addictive as a drug like heroin. One of the most commonly used drugs is marijuana. Most people first try drugs as teenagers and about half of the people start with marijuana. The factors for developing drug addiction are environmental and genetics. Environmental factors include family attitudes towards drug use and being exposed to a peer group that uses drugs.
Addiction can impact people differently. Some people can suffer from medical problems related to their addiction. In others the addiction can trigger a mental illness such as depression or anxiety. Drugs can also cause behavioral problems such as increased aggressiveness, impaired judgment, and impulsivity.
There are different reasons that people use drugs. Some people might be prescribed a medication. Others might have feelings of emptiness and believe that drugs can make them feel happy. Remember that drugs are more easily attained today on the streets or through a doctor.
A person might avoid discussing their addiction with family or friends due to feeling embarrassed or unsure what is occurring or believing that they can control the situation. The good news is that addiction is treatable. People should get addiction treatment before the situation becomes unmanageable.
Addiction treatment can give you the tools to cope with your dependence
Addiction might not always be cured but like other chronic diseases it can be managed. Just like with other chronic illnesses a person with an addiction might relapse. Remember that relapsing does not mean that treatment has failed because there is a need to change behavioral patterns.
Addiction treatment involves changing a person’s behavioral patterns. The approach is intended to change their attitudes about using drugs and providing them with other ways to cope and address their needs. This can be a long recovery process because in many cases the drug use has taken over the person’s life and has interrupted their careers and family life. I have treated addiction for over 10 years. I work with people of all ages and from different backgrounds. My approach is tailored to your needs and my aim is to help you manage your addiction.
Why is my approach effective? I use an approach called cognitive behavioral therapy. This is a short-term goal oriented approach that aims to change your pattern of thinking and associated behaviors connected to those thoughts. Working together with you I look at the way your thoughts and attitudes that you have about different issues impact your behaviors. Once you understand the connection it becomes easier for you to cope with your addiction.
I will help you to examine the impact of negative automatic thoughts on your ability to cope with stressful events that can lead to addiction. Negative automatic thoughts are inaccurate and can be harmful. For example having a low opinion of yourself and your abilities can impact your self-esteem and your interactions with family and friends. Negative thoughts usually originate in childhood as a result of the way that our family treated us.
Each session lasts for 50 minutes and we will meet once or twice a week depending on the severity of your addiction and your individual needs. In each session we will work together on understanding the impact of your thoughts on your behaviors. I will also give you homework assignments so you can continue to work on the exercises we used during the session. Remember that you can learn to cope with your addiction and find new ways to cope with your stress through addiction treatment.
I think that I might need therapy but I heard therapy is expensive
Therapy is an investment in your wellbeing. By learning to cope with you’re addiction you can reduce your stress and learn to lead a more productive life. I offer a free half hour initial session.
You can improve your life
Many people may not be aware of the impact of addiction on their lives until discussing problems they face in depth. There is no shame in seeking help to make your life brighter and happier. I will help you find the right coping skills to enhance your well-being. Life should not have to be scary, and through addiction treatment, you can find the true relief you need. Please call me at 646.717.4860 for a free 30 minute consultation.

Fodor's Expert Review The Floridian
Although vegetarians flock to this artsy and inspired eatery for the veggie-centric menu, there's plenty to tantalize omnivores as well. Delicious Southern food with flair ranges from fried-green-tomato bruschetta to a choice of shrimp, fish, or tofu with polenta cakes (here called "grits"). Many dishes offer a choice of meat, seafood, tofu, or tempeh. Some gluten-free dishes are also available. The produce featured at this farm-to-table establishment is at the peak of freshness and plays a starring role in the Winter Salad and Florida Sunshine Salad. Attire is casual, and the oceanic hues and funky decor put you at ease. Kids' needs are handled with flexible good nature. It's a deservedly popular spot, especially on weekends, when you should make a reservation.
