Shows Vaccinated Kids Have a Higher Rate of Sickness, 470% Increase in Autism
Summary by G. Edward Griffin
The first-ever, peer-review study has been published comparing total-health in vaccinated and unvaccinated children. Dr. Anthony Mawson led a research team that investigated the relationship between vaccination exposures and acute or chronic illnesses in home-schooled children. The vaccinated children had a much higher rate of autism and ADHD, at a rate of 470% higher than those who received no shots. Vaccinated children were also more vulnerable to allergies and eczema. Unvaccinated children contract mild childhood diseases more frequently, but their vaccinated counterparts suffer pneumonia and ear infections more frequently. The finding that vaccination introduces a significant risk for autism is devastating to the vaccine industry and, therefore, will be vigorously attacked. ~ GEG
Pilot Comparative Study on the Health of Vaccinated and Unvaccinated 6-12 Year Old US Children
In a development that autism parents have long anticipated, the first-ever, peer-reviewed study comparing total health outcomes in vaccinated and unvaccinated children was released on line yesterday. According to sources close to the project, the study had been reviewed and accepted by two different journals, both of which pulled back on their approval once the political implications of the findings became clear. That’s largely because, as parents have long expected, the rate of autism is significantly higher in the vaccinated group, a finding that could shake vaccine safety claims just as the first president who has ever stated a belief in a link between vaccines and autism has taken office.
Mercury Poisoning: Symptoms and Diseases
Mercury is the most poisonous, non-radioactive, naturally occurring substance on our planet. There is no safe level of mercury because even one atom of it in your body is doing some harm to it. There is no debate about the toxicity of mercury and every knowledgeable scientist and health professional understands how poisonous mercury is. Yet even today the American Dental Association (ADA) and pro-amalgam dentists who support its insane, logic defying position, continue to say that the mercury released from these fillings is not a health hazard.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that there is no safe level of mercury. That means that no amount of mercury is safe, not even one atom. Even if enough mercury hasn't accumulated to manifest a symptom directly or indirectly related to chronic mercury poisoning, it doesn't mean you are not being poisoned by it. The straw that broke the proverbial camel's back wasn't the last straw, it was the sum total of the weight of all of the straws.
They treat the whole body, not just teeth
When was the last time your dentist recommended meditation and eating kale as a way to a healthier mouth? Suggested a daily probiotic? Or had a cranial sacral therapist give you a treatment in the chair?
We didn’t think so.
But these are exactly the services you might find at the office of a holistic dentist, also sometimes called a biological or integrative dentist. The Holistic Dental Assn. has 267 active members nationwide. The numbers are growing for a few reasons, including acknowledgment that the teeth and gums should be considered vital to the rest of the body, and vice versa; also, concern over the effect mercury amalgam fillings might have on a person’s health. “The growth is definitely patient-driven,” said Dawn Ewing, executive director of the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine, a network of dentists.
How Electromagnetic Fields May Impact Dental Health
How do EMF’s affect dental health, and should we be concerned? In my experience the answer is yes. If you have titanium dental implants, cell phones placed up to your ear on the side of the implant has been shown to raise the temperature of the implant. Even a couple of degrees can make a difference, as anyone who’s ever had a fever can attest to. What happens with a temperature increase is that cytokine proteins signal immune cells to the area, causing inflammation. Inflammation begins a cascade of events that could lead to gum disease around a metal implant, also known as peri-implantitis. Zirconia implants don’t have this issue as they don’t conduct heat nearly as much.
The second reason you should be concerned is if you have bleeding gums or gum disease. Bacteria have been shown to reproduce up to 6 times faster when exposed to electrical fields. This can accelerate the advancement of gum disease, in my opinion. In cases where I have seen extreme bacterial activity, I ask the patient if they use cell phones often, and whether they use the phone right next to their head. The answer to both questions is usually ‘Yes’.
In Europe, only Ireland (73%), Poland (1%), Serbia (3%), Spain (11%), and the U.K. (11%) fluoridate any of their water. Most developed countries, including Japan and 97% of the western European population, do not consume fluoridated water.
In the U.S., about 70% of public water supplies are fluoridated. This equates to approximately 185 million people, which is over half the number of people drinking artificially fluoridated water worldwide. Some countries have areas with high natural fluoride levels in the water. These include India, China and parts of Africa. In these countries measures are being taken to remove the fluoride because of the health problems that fluoride can cause.

The atmosphere amongst the guests was good. But the rooms are dark, small and the bathroom is a desaster: dirty and small.
The receptionists offered us a taxi ride to the airport for 17 USD. If you ring up green taxi you'll get it for about 10 USD. That they try to rip off backpackers is not ok.
I also gave them cloths for washing. They returned still wet. After they dried them again some shirts were dirty and I can throw them away.
Maybe I just had very bad luck here..

THE OLD OMEGA WATCH
I inherited the old self winding Omega watch when my father died.
It was given to him, by my mother, on his fiftieth birthday
On its back were the words "To dad from mom and the boys"
and the date; 2-13-53.
By the time I received it the self winding function
Supposed to be powered by a moving wrist
No longer worked and the time had to be set
Each day and the watch to be wound by hand.
I treasured this reminder of my father
And tried to have it fixed, at some expense
But, still, its self winding function never returned.
So I wore it only on special occasions as a talisman.
Now I am age 80 and have decided it is time
To wind it up and set the time each day
To let me know each days time
While my own time is passing.
The old Omega watch runs slow some days
But so do I and I must wind up and reset
Myself each morning to keep on moving
Until my mechanisms fail and time runs out.

50,000 MORE H&K M27s for Marines: USMC Releases M27 IAR Sole Source Notice
By Nathaniel F
The United States Marine Corps has issued a new acquisition notice for up to 50,814 M27 Infantry Automatic Rifles (IAR), to be sole sourced from Heckler & Koch. The notice is technically not a solicitation in and of itself, but a pre-solicitation notice, intended to give other companies the chance to submit their own proposals […]

|Body and chassis|
|Engine||DAF (DAF SB3000)|
Volvo (Volvo B10M/B7R/B12)
Scania (Scania K93/K113)
The Premiere and Excalibur were introduced in 1991 as replacements for the Paramount. The Premiere was the mainstream design, available in the same two heights as its predecessor (but expressed in centimetres, 320 and 350, rather than millimetres). The Excalibur was a premium specification coach, based on the Premiere 350 but with a more dramatically styled front end.
A taller export version of the Excalibur, built on Volvo B12 chassis, was briefly marketed by Volvo in France, and was named Prestige (a name which was subsequently re-used by Plaxton on the home market for a low-floor bus).
The Excalibur accounted for around 15% of production; the Premiere 350 was the most popular model taking about 45%; and the 3.2-metre Premiere 320 and Prima made up the remaining 40%.
The Volvo B10M was by far the most popular chassis on which the range was built, accounting for nearly three quarters of the total (including over 90% of Excaliburs). The Dennis Javelin chassis accounted for about 15% of output, with the remainder consisting of DAF SB3000, Volvo B7R, Volvo B12 and Scania K93 or K113.
Most of the Scanias were the low 320 model, and an early order from Shearings for thirty K93s accounted for a majority of them.
Over 97% of the bodies built were on 12m chassis.
The Premiere and the Excalibur share much of the same body structure, apart from the upper front end. They are flat-sided designs, with a high, straight window line. The cab window and door glazing sweep down, in a shape reminiscent of the Paramount III's pentagonal feature window, to meet the lower edge of the windscreen.
The Premiere has an upright front end; the Excalibur's is more raked back, and a thicker pillar separates the door or cab from the adjacent window. An air-intake grille was incorporated into the bumper on early Volvo B10Ms, whereas a plain panel was used on other chassis types. Later B10Ms had an even simpler, single-barred opening, or a plain panel. Updates to the front end during 1993 were minor; subtle changes to the headlight area replaced the vertical inner edges with angled ones, and the removable front panel section was reduced in width.
The original design has two thin grooves running along the vehicle sides, level with the top and bottom of the headlights. This persisted after the 1993 update, but plain skirt panels were used on later built vehicles. Both designs of skirt panel curve neatly under at the bottom.
On early built vehicles, the high-mounted rear window curved up into the roof, with a horizontally grooved panel below it. Horizontal rear light clusters were fitted low down. The rear end underwent a major redesign in 1993 following complaints about leaks. The revised design had a flat rear window, separated from the roofline, and vertical rear light clusters mounted at the body corners.
- The Expressliner II was a variant of the Premiere 350 built to National Express specification on Volvo B10M chassis. The Expressliner name had previously been used on Paramount bodies built to a similar specification.
- The Interurban (or Premiere Interurban) was a variant of the Premiere 320 designed for medium distance interurban services. It was supplied to the Stagecoach group.
The Premiere 350 and Excalibur were superseded by the Paragon and Panther respectively. The Prima, introduced as a variant of the low-height Premiere 320, was facelifted, with styling cues from the Paragon, to become the Plaxton Profile, which continued production until 2012.
Since the 1989 build season, Plaxton's body numbering system has used a letter to identify the body style. The following letters are used for the Premiere, Excalibur and Prima:
- M Premiere 320 and Prima
- P Premiere 350
- S Excalibur
- T Prestige (high floor export coach)

LoveGeist 2010: Does Marriage Still Thing?
We are right back with an increase of comes from Match.com’s 2010 LoveGeist Report!
Is Britain heartbroken? Tend to be long-term relationships a thing of history? Or is fancy more important today than ever before?
In accordance with the upcoming Foundation, we have been having a development known as The Myth of decrease. If it appears poor, it’s because its – The Myth of decrease asserts we are “less content than we was previously; that we reduce time and more stress on our fingers; that families and communities aren’t since strong as before; and this marriage and personal interactions of all sorts are on the stones.”
Yikes. Things look pretty bleak.
Or do they?
The conclusions associated with the LoveGeist Report, as well as countless other analysis, service a counter-argument: “we do have more time than previously, which our connections tend to be healthier and sturdy, which family every day life is strong.” The LoveGeist researchers learned that:
- an astonishing 93per cent of daters in the UK require long-lasting connections.
- 80per cent of those polled said that having a long-term commitment is actually “important” or “extremely vital” in their mind, a finding which was split uniformly between women and men.
- A fifth of daters reported that finding love is the main concern.
- Nearly half of participants agreed that a pleasurable sex life ended up being more significant than their own profession.
- Nearly 50% claimed that they would relocate for a long-lasting union, and more than 40per cent stated they would reprioritize their profession for love.
Love can be so important to UK daters, in fact, that it’s don’t regarded as a fortunate pose of fortune that “just occurs” to lucky men and women; discovering a relationship is thought of as significant element of life that needs to be actively pursued. And contrary to everyday opinion, wedding isn’t in fall. Just 13percent of daters reported that they’ve got no fascination with matrimony or a civil cooperation, and this quantity drops below 5percent for under 40 crowd.
Analysis suggests that really love when you look at the twenty-first 100 years is all about choice. While wedding continues to be an objective for many, particularly the more youthful generation, society not thinks about it really the only valid sign of long-term devotion. 37percent of daters think that having youngsters together could be the truest sign of genuine commitment, while 33percent nonetheless contemplate marriage because the ultimate sign of devotion and 21per cent consider relocating collectively become the strongest indicator of a serious connect.
Precisely what does this suggest for the future of relationship? Experts think that the quantity of option ready to accept modern daters is actually creating the ability in order for them to find out crucial existence lessons prior to when past generations managed to. “This means,” claims the LoveGeist Report, “because matrimony is not the only option for meeting gay singles in their 20s, they truly are able to test various relationships, experience ways of internet dating and expand their particular perspectives.” Although that doesn’t lock in the ongoing future of wedding, it probably means daters can make the essential instructions discovered within their youth and apply them to afterwards relationships, increasing their particular likelihood of deciding into more content long-term unions.
Which is a future we are able to all enjoy.

Proverbs 4:14-15 Don't do as the wicked do, and don't follow the path of evildoers. Don't even think about it; Don't go that way. Turn away and keep moving.
We know not to do evil...but here it says not to even think about it! It even tells us to keep moving. We are not to dwell on why somebody does evil, or how. We are not suppose to even take time to notice what their life is like.
I believe that there are two reasons for that... if we are busy with evil in any way we can not have our mind on God. And evil is such a strong power we can easily be pulled in, deceived by it.
God's word tells us to constantly renew our minds. We are to keep our mind on God... to stay busy, to keep moving forward in God. We are not to even stop and ponder evil!
I think we need to become extremely aware of all the ways evil creeps into our lives. Is it through people, through books, through TV? We must be aware, we must take notice we must turn away and keep moving toward God.

Could TikTok be the most valuable start-up in the world
- TikTok owner ByteDance made a net profit of $3 billion last year
- TikTok app has already been downloaded over 2 billion times.
- ByteDance’s private valuation is reportedly around $110 billion
Bytedance CEO and founder poses for a photograph in Beijing, China.

The fast-growing company more than doubled its revenue from $7.4 billion in 2018 to $17 billion in 2019, according to a news report, which states that it also has $6 billion sitting in the vault to burn.
Founded in 2012 by entrepreneur Zhang Yiming, ByteDance reportedly has a private valuation of between $105 billion and $110 billion, which gives it an MVP status compared to other start-up’s in the world.
An analyst familiar with the matter whistled to Bloomberg that it could be worth up to $180 billion in an initial public offering.
ByteDance has stayed mute over the figures.
TikTok’s strategy to a Tripple A startup is to influence crowd cultures with current trends. The app caught fire during the nationwide lockdown, influencers binged on its 15sec video clips to kill boredom.
The app allows people to share short clips of up to 15 seconds and its users are fans of doing lip syncs, dances and tricks, often to music.
Headquartered in Beijing, ByteDance has been backed by the likes of SoftBank and Silicon Valley venture capital firm Sequoia.
ByteDance also owns Duoyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, and Toutiao, a news service.
Earlier this month, TikTok announced that it had hired Disney’s head of streaming, Kevin Mayer, to be its new CEO.
TikTok’s contention with the Law.
Last November, the U.S. government launched a national security review of ByteDance’s acquisition of Musical.ly. The U.S. government frets the use of data and the breach of US security.
TikTok has warmed the heart of millennials and has its offices situated in Los Angeles, Mountain View, and New York. The company has also ventured into the European market and has an office in London UK.

Preconstruction and construction of a new Toyota Vehicle Processing and Distribution Center (VDC), to replace the existing VDC facility, within the same paved (144 acres less 16-acre reduction) lot. The new facility will consist of a LEED Gold Certified 155,000 s.f. post production building, 5200 s.f. car wash and a 3,500 s.f. fuel island to replace multiple existing structures and consolidate the functions of the current Vehicle Distribution Center into a 21% smaller footprint. The project will create more efficient workflow, reduce vehicle movement and emissions, and increase site safety and update the seismic security of the facility.

Oltmans was awarded another build-to-suit in the Douglas Park Business District in Long Beach. The new project involved a 142,000 s.f., concrete tilt-up post-secondary educational training facility for Universal Technical Institute. The project sits atop a 7.13-acre lot, featuring classrooms with the latest data and network instruction techniques, administrative offices and a large multi-purpose room for graduations. The laboratories provide engine dynos, alignment testing, car racks and transmission dynos. The electrical and mechanical systems to support the above include compressed air throughout the labs, carbon exhaust systems, and state-of-the-art power and data outlets to connect all mechanic devices.

Quinnâs new and expanded operations facility was built to better serve their customers throughout the Los Angeles area. A major challenge for this project was designing and constructing a single building that allowed for the consolidation of their various service components such as administrative operations, repair, sales and training, which were prior to construction, separated into several detached buildings. The new facility needed to be sustainable, economical, and highly efficient. Through the collaborative effort by Quinn Group, HPA Architects, and Oltmans Construction Co., the project came to fruition in the form of this turn-key, 234,100 s.f., 2-story, concrete tilt-up, âone-stop-shopâ, commercial facility. The newly constructed building houses a full-service Parts and Sales Area, HR/Training Center, Service Operation Office Area, Parts Warehouse, Heavy Equipment Shop, and Component Rebuild Center (CRC).The CRC includes a Welding Machine Shop and a Dynamometer Engine Testing Room & Equipment Area. A technical component of the project was providing a system that would support the needs of the dynamometer or âdynoâ machine, which is considered one of the largest owned by Quinn. The new support system involved the construction of an underground water tank, which feeds a cooling tower that was installed adjacent to the CRC building solely for the purpose of the dyno machine. In addition, the Heavy Equipment Shop and CRC warehouses have26 Overhead and Jib Cranes that are used for lifting and moving large CAT equipment. An effective exterior and interior rail system was installed into the concrete foundation to facilitate the transportation of equipment to shop areas. Also, constructed on-site were two (2) additional stand alone buildings: the Wash Building, a covered area for cleaning equipment and the Transportation Building, an office area for security and controlling of their equipment yard.
Sustainable/green building components were included in the design and construction of the project. The project was built to the requirements of LEED Gold utilizing the following green components:
- 722 kW rooftop solar
- High efficiency glazing systems

California Speedway is a 2-mile, low-banked, D-Shaped oval super speedway in Fontana, California. Oltmans Construction was contracted to construct two separate projects for the master plan. The first project, The California Speedway Support Buildings, was constructed using masonry with steel joist and metal deck roof structures. The project included approximately fifty (50) individual support buildings at a total of 360,000 s.f.; including: race control tower, souvenir buildings, ticket buildings, security buildings, an urgent care facility, 35,000 s.f. maintenance building, three (3) state-of-the-art garage buildings, three 2-story infield corporate suites including interior improvements, twenty-eight (28) sky boxes, chalet kitchens, concessions, 40,000 s.f. administration building, locker rooms/showers and nine (9) public restrooms. The second project was the California Speedway â Grandstand Expansion project, which consisted of the construction of additional bleachers as well as included three (3) additional retail buildings and an elevator tower at 4,200 s.f. Oltmans self-performed the concrete work around the race track and provided the foundation, slab on-grade for the support buildings.
The California Speedway was a Kaiser Steel Mill superfund site and the area below the pit buildings, built by Oltmans, has an environmental barrier condition.
Roger Penske is well-known for his high standards and attention to detail. He had this to say about the quality of our work on the California Speedway, âYour teamâs perserverance produced buildings that are being lauded as the best in motorsports.â Penske Vice President Chairman Walt Cszarnecki added, âIt was a great team effort.â California Speedway opened in April â97 to national acclaim.

The state-of-the-art Volkswagen Group of America Test Center California was constructed on a 5-acre site located at 201 Del Norte Blvd. in Oxnard California. The facility is the largest technical center of its kind for the Volkswagen Group outside of Germany. The project was a ground-up, 64,000 s.f. emissions compliance laboratory and vehicle test center. The project was completed in two phases; the first phase included the demolition and removal of an existing truck-dock building as well as over-excavating and rough grading for the future building site. The second phase was the construction of the building itself. The site is utilized as the companyâs only emission testing facility in the country and is also used for research and development of emerging products.The development center featured an emissions test laboratory, parts analysis capabilities, a vehicle workshop with more than 16 in-ground lifts, and a dealer service and training center. The shop and emissions lab had epoxy flooring for added durability and cleaning. In addition, the new facility added extensive office and meeting areas to accommodate approximately 50 TCC team members and more than 250 Volkswagen Group engineers and partners who are expected to make the trip to Oxnard each year to conduct myriad testing projects.
SPI Solar installed a solar power system in the building. The system is expected to save the company about 30 percent in its carbon footprint. The system included a 400-kW system with 2,278 solar panels placed on the rooftop and on carport shade structures. Because testing in the new Oxnard facility will require a huge amount of energy, solar power not only cuts costs but also fits the companyâs focus on fostering clean energy. The completed facility supports several Volkswagen Group brands including Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, Bentley,and Bugatti.
Our good neighbor policy avoided any disruption to the operations of Pacific Beverage Company located to the North of the project. Oltmans Construction self performed concrete work on all concrete panel tilt-up walls and mezzanine deck.
LEED Certification/Sustainable Construction
An excerpt from Volkswagen:
Volkswagen Group of America’s North American Emission Compliance Lab & Test Center was awarded LEED Certification in 2013. “Volkswagen Group has a comprehensive strategy to develop sustainable innovations designed to help reduce the environmental footprint of our products and all aspects of our corporate operations,â said Matthias Barke, General Manager, Volkswagen Group Test Center California. âAs one of the few automotive laboratories of its kind in the world to achieve LEED certification, the TCCâs achievement allows us to be better neighbors while contributing to Volkswagenâs worldwide commitment to environmental responsibility.â
To earn LEED Certification the facility included:

USAID is committed to effecting the changes in developing countries that will reduce the frustrations of their people and decrease the risks of conflict and instability. Hunger and unemployment are clearly recognized as a threat to US security. USAID is implementing the President’s Initiative to End Hunger in Africa (IEHA). The paper describes USAID’s assessment of the needs for Agricultural Science and Technology in Africa; how this is related to and implemented in the IEHA; and the roles and opportunities that USAID sees for US agricultural scientists, their associations and institutions in the process.

It’s not uncommon for a woman in labor to arrive at Jackson Park Hospital and Medical Center, having seen a doctor only once or twice since learning she was pregnant.
“They can’t afford it, and they just don’t know they truly need prenatal care,” said Yulonda Clark, a resident nurse in the South Side hospital’s obstetrics unit.
But in August, some of the city’s poorest residents will have one fewer option.
“Although we do not want to take services away from the community and we have resisted this move for a few years, it is our responsibility to protect the viability of the hospital and preserve the 800 jobs in the community,” CEO Dr. William Dorsey said in a written statement.
The South Shore hospital’s board of directors voted “unanimously” to close the unit, Dorsey said. The unit quit accepting new patients April 11.
Upset nurses, doctors and other hospital staff are planning a town hall meeting at 6 p.m. Friday at The Quarry, 2423 E. 75th St., to discuss the closure. Clark, a union rep for the nurses at the hospital, said they have reached out to Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s office to see if he can stop the closure.
Clark agreed that hospital patient numbers are low, but she said the obstetrics unit isn’t being marketed adequately to the community. In 2012, the hospital opened a new labor and delivery area as well as a remodeled in-patient unit, according to the hospital’s website.
Clark said the closure will be devastating.
“For the most part, [the patients] can’t go anywhere else because they don’t have the means and transportation to do that,” she said. “We have patients who come to us on public transportation, we have patients who come as walk-ins.”
Dorsey said staff in the unit have been offered positions elsewhere in the hospital, 7531 S Stony Island Ave.
“The hospital said they are going to relocate us within the hospital, but I’ve been a labor and delivery nurse for over 20 years. So that’s all I know — is labor and delivery,” Clark said. “I can’t see myself retraining.”

Chief Supt Ncube
Exsto Makunzva / Caroline Gumbo
ZVISHAVANE - Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) officer commanding Zvishavane-Mberengwa policing district, Chief Superintendent Edward Ncube has challenged police officers to be good at their work, saying society looked up to them for safety and security.
Speaking during the launch of a new Foot Patrol Unit at Mandava Bus Terminus recently, Ncube said police officers should do their duties in a way that inspires confidence in the people they serve.
"Ladies and gentleman, patrolling and doing beats is part of everyday police work. We should not be ashamed of our work. All over the world, police officers do beats and they patrol communities to ensure better observation and greater interaction with the people.
"When taking the oath on appointment, one swears to be faithful and to bear true allegiance to Zimbabwe and observe the laws of Zimbabwe. Therefore, a member who leaves his or her point of duty without permission or reasonable excuse is wayward. He or she is neither faithful, loyal, dependable nor trustworthy," said Ncube.
Members of the police were warned against selecting duties since the very nature of police work demands a lot of discipline, making it impossible for one to be selective.
Ncube said some members of the police despise patrols, considering them to be menial work for the less educated and unsophisticated.
"I get worried when police officers desert their responsibilities when they are supposed to be out protecting the people and fighting crime in communities," said Ncube, urging members of the public to cooperate with the police for a safer society.
He also encouraged the media to promote accountability by exposing police officers who spend their time doing what is not expected of them.local

Dating and 1st year sobriety
The old “I’ve wrestled with my demons and won” line? How about a simple, “I’m a pretty hot colossal f**k up”?It’s always a little awkward when a potential date wants to “meet you for a drink.” Telling them you’re sober feels like confessing to some horrible chronic STD.I’ve been in and out of 12-step recovery programs (like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous) for almost 20 years.I’ve had many periods of sobriety, from a paltry four months to a lengthy seven years (and everything in between).Drawing on my own experience and that of others in recovery, this book highlights fifty things that all of us should know once we’ve decided to treat our addiction.Some of the topics included are: The First 30 Days – What to expect and how to get through it.I say grab it with both greedy hands if you stumble upon it, and do whatever it takes to keep it, as long as it works for you.
That’s one of the main upsides to dating somebody who’s also sober.
Natasha says, “The main con is that it is guaranteed that this person has a ton of hang-ups and emotional baggage.
They may well be using other ways to 'act out' now that using or drinking is off the table.”My own experience with the program is that other addictions sometimes run rampant, morphing into other areas of their lives. Many people, when they finally get sober, develop issues with food, gambling, sex, and spending.
During the past two decades, I’ve dated both men in recovery and men who weren’t alcoholics (called “normies” by us in the program).
I’m currently single again, a sober divorcée in the strange world of online dating. How do you allude to your past (and present) situations without lying or scaring off a potential match?

Sludge Magic at the EPA
The Journal of Commerce; January 27, 1999
by David L. Lewis, Ph.D.
According to scientists working for the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research & Development, the
Sludge Rule on land application of municipal wastes (40 CFR Part 503) promulgated in 1993 may be the most
scientifically unsound action ever taken by the agency. Rather than being protective, the rule actually threatens public
health and the environment.
Testimony of David L. Lewis, Ph.D, The Impact of Science on Public Policy, Hearing by the Committee on
Resources, Subcommittee on Energy and Minerals, U.S. House of Representatives,

The potential for pathogen regrowth is the downside to sewage sludge being rich in
nutrients that promote the growth of bacteria and fungi.
Exotoxins—proteins and peptides secreted into the surrounding environment by growing
cells—are produced by both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. They are usually
the most toxic of the two general types of bacterial toxins. Because they can retain their toxicity at extremely
dilutions, some exotoxins, including staphylococcal enterotoxins
and shigatoxin, are used as biological warfare agents.

Pete Dunne won the United Kingdom Championship back at NXT Takeover: Chicago in 2017 and has since defended against all on-comers over the past year and a half.
The British star has now completed 500 days as Champion and is closing in on Brock Lesnar’s 504-day reign as Universal Champion, a reign that only ended back at WrestleMania.
Dunne is now just a week away from breaking Asuka’s 510-day record which would make him the longest reigning Champion of the modern era having already surpassed a number of lengthy reigns, including CM Punk’s historic 434-day reign as WWE Champion.
The United Kingdom Champion has even released a new shirt to celebrate the milestone, which obviously doesn’t come around often for WWE superstars since the company is better known for collective title reigns than lengthy ones.
Many fans have argued that Dunne isn’t on the main roster so he isn’t forced to defend his title on a regular basis, which is one of the reasons why Bruno Sammartino was able to hold the title for almost 3,000 days back in the 1960s.
Dunne’s last title defense was just over a week ago when he faced Ricochet in a winner takes all match on NXT where both the North American Championship and the United Kingdom titles were on the line, but due to interference, both men retained their titles.
If Dunne holds the title for the next 10 days and is able to surpass Asuka, then the next record is Lex Luger’s 523 day reign as United States Champion from 1989-90 and he would then be second to the great Bruno Sammartino himself and it’s highly unlikely that Dunne will be able to break the WWE Hall of Famer’s long-standing 2,803 day reign.

Free radical (FR) scavenging may be a therapeutically useful adjunctive property of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. In this study we have shown that SH-containing ACE inhibitors (captopril, epicaptopril, zofenopril) are potent FR scavengers at a concentration of 4 x 10-5 M whereas non-SH ACE inhibitors (enalaprilat, quinaprilat and perindoprilat) have no FR-scavenging activity at this concentration. Furthermore, the SH-containing agents preferentially scavenged general radicals rather than superoxide radicals, i.e. suggesting that these drugs would be effective in quenching the culprit FR in ischaemia/reperfusion injury.

When I saw the headline from an interview on ABC News this morning, I’ll confess that I did a double take. Lindsey Graham to ‘Re-Evaluate’ Supporting Donald Trump If Nominated.
My initial response was to think, Wait a minute. Graham might support Trump? But as it turns out, it’s just the opposite. If Trump is the eventual nominee (as more and more establishment personalities are coming around to considering as at least a possibility) it seems that Graham was previously willing to support him. But after Saturday night’s debate, the Senator may be ready to defect.
A prominent U.S. senator from South Carolina said this morning he needs to “re-evaluate” whether he would support Donald Trump as the GOP presidential nominee after comments the real estate mogul made about George W. Bush’s actions in connection to the 9/11 terror attacks.
“I’ve got to really re-evaluate that after what he said about George W. Bush,” he said. “There’s just the kooky people in the world; the mainstream Democratic party opposition to Bush did not go where Donald Trump went,” Sen. Lindsey Graham told “Good Morning America” today.
Graham, who has previously said he will supported whoever is nominated, said today he will “have to sit down and think about what it means to have somebody running as the nominee of the Republican Party to accuse the past president of willfully lying about the facts and circumstances of Iraq, and being responsible for 9/11.”
“That’s something that really only comes from the kook part of America,” he added.
You can watch the video of the interview at the link just to keep things in context. (Was going to embed it here, but it’s autoplay.)
I had to go Google Graham’s previous comments, but the story is accurate. Lindsey has said in the past that he would support the eventual nominee, even if it was Donald Trump. (Of course, that was always couched with follow-up comments about how that wasn’t going to happen, Trump isn’t a serious candidate, yada yada yada.) But now he’s at least implying that he’ll run off the ranch entirely if the unwashed masses continue down the warpath against the establishment and actually send The Donald to Cleveland with enough delegates to win on the first round. (And he’ll need every last one of them to avoid any last minute hijinks.)
I’m not buying it, though, and I’ll tell you why. This isn’t the first rodeo for most of us observing this election, and while the temperatures may be running a bit hotter than usual, they follow a similar pattern every time. In fact, I’ve seen the same pattern play out here among our readers. During the heat of the campaign, people pick out their own favorites and defend them vigorously, as they should. Sometimes it gets to the point where old friends become enemies and harsh words are spoken. Pledges are made that votes will never be cast in favor of Candidate X if Candidate Y fails to secure the nomination. But in the end, when it comes time to get ready for the general election, old friendships generally win over and hurt feelings from past arguments are put aside. I lost count of the number of people who said they would never vote for Romney last time, and there’s a fair chance that a number of them stayed home and didn’t. But those arguing about it slowly got around to shaking hands and being friends again, realizing that the common enemy was a greater threat than the skirmish of the day.
Perhaps Lindsey Graham really won’t endorse Trump if he gets the nomination. But in the quiet of the voting booth I’m betting he’ll still pull the lever. And when the dust settles he won’t be running off to join the Democrats after all these years.

>>On another subject, I am anxiously awaiting your post on baking soda. All of a sudden I seem to be using it in so many things.<<
>>I am always looking for ways to be more frugal and I noticed u sed don’t use coupons. I was wondering, what brand do u or did u use for diapers, laundry detergent, and I get the impression ur more “green” in terms of healthy choices. Do u use bleach or chemicle cleaners or is ther another alternative for killing bacteria or viruses in the house?<<
Since both of these requests came in within a day of each other, it looks like it’s time for me to share about the magic of baking soda!
In answer to the second question, no, I don’t use chemical cleaners, but I do periodically use bleach for whitening whites – very periodically. Baking soda is an incredibly effective, inexpensive, and versatile replacement for many household cleaners. It can replace some of the things you’d buy as health and beauty aids. It seems that there are endless uses for it, but I’ll share some of what we’ve found most helpful.
I’ll start with my favorite uses that I start my day with.
- Toothpaste – I don’t like fluoride based toothpastes (due to toxicity), and though I could have gotten plenty of name brand toothpastes free during my stint couponing, I wasn’t interested even at that price. I keep a small container of baking soda on my bathroom counter, and after moistening my toothbrush, dip it in so there is just a tiny bit on the toothbrush. You need only a very small amount; using a lot would be counterproductive since it would be overly abrasive. You can also mix up your own toothpaste by using a mix of 70% coconut oil to 30% baking soda.
- Deoderant – this is something I really love, since anti-perspirant was something I continued to buy for years, despite concerns it was inherently problematic (it’s not a good thing to block the pores that release the toxins from your body). There are various recipes I intended to try out, but started with plain baking soda and after a year ago of using this in all seasons and situations, can say with confidence that it’s very effective – no odor at all. I take a generous pinch and rub in on clean skin.
- Some inevitably falls into the bathroom sink, but since I wipe it down every morning as part of my routine, it doesn’t matter to me. In fact, baking soda is useful as a dry cleanser for sinks, tubs, and toilets. Sprinkle a little on and rub.
- I tried baking soda as a shampoo replacement and didn’t care for it, but I didn’t give it a fair try. You really need to be willing to do it for several weeks, to give your hair a chance to adjust and reset its oil levels. That’s the biggest challenge, the adjustment period. Dd15 used it for months and it was great, but when she went to camp the water was different and her hair felt stiff, so she switched back to regular shampoo. To do this, you mix some baking soda and water, massage it into your hair, and rinse. Your hair will feel very squeaky clean. Then you do a rinse with diluted apple cider vinegar to restore shine. I kept a spray bottle in the shower with the vinegar rinse. I’ve read that once your hair resets itself, you’ll need to wash your hair much less frequently. You don’t have to use straight baking soda to benefit from its cleaning ability, though- you can also add a teaspoon of baking soda when you shampoo your hair to remove dinginess and residual soap build up.
- Facial scrub – mix 1 part baking soda with 2 parts ground oatmeal, and add water to make a paste. Gently rub on your face, leave on for a few minutes and rinse with cool water. (I haven’t done this but it sounds good.)
- Laundry – can be used as a booster to regular loads by adding 1/2 c. baking soda to each load. When I wash cloth diapers (don’t use them in the winter), I use straight baking soda to wash them since my homemade laundry detergent isn’t good for diapers.
- Vegetable wash – you can add 1/4 c. of baking soda to a sink of warm water to wash fruits and vegetables; this removes dirt and insecticides. Rinse with clean water.
- Appliance cleanser- For ovens, make a paste of baking soda and water and spread inside. Let it sit for a few hours, then scrub off. To wipe down appliances, sprinkle some on a damp sponge. When I’m cleaning the stove top, I often sprinkle baking soda on it, then pour some white vinegar on top, and wipe it down. The vinegar and baking soda interact chemically to make a powerful cleanser.
- Clean crayon marks on wall – make a baking soda paste with water, and using a damp rag or an old toothbrush, lightly scrub wall.
- Clean silver with a paste of baking soda and lemon juice.
- Relieves indigestion and heartburn - mix a teaspoon of baking soda into a cup of water, and drink quickly.
- Poison ivy/itchiness – relieves itchiness; add 1/2 c. baking soda to a tub of warm water and soak.
- Bee stings, insect bites, sunburn – make poultice of baking soda and water
- Mouthwash – mix 1/2 t. baking soda with 1/2 c. of water and swish around your mouth. This gets your mouth clean and fresh and apparently is good to relieve canker sores (we’ve never had canker sores so I can’t say from personal experience).
- Fridge freshener – this is classic – everyone probably already has a small box of baking soda in the door of their fridge to absorb odors.
- Car freshener – I can’t stand the smell of commerical car fresheners. Fill a little dish with baking soda and put it in the console where cup holders are. A couple of days ago I noticed the van was smelling musty from all the dampness tracked in by wet boots, and I plan to do this in the coming week.
- Ant repellent – mix equal parts salt with baking soda and sprinkle where ants enter.
- Play clay- for a fun play dough for kids, mix 1 1/4 c. water with 2 c. baking soda and 1 c. cornstarch. Knead until smooth, store is closed plastic bag or container.
- Remove burnt on food – soak the pan with hot water and baking soda.
- Clean clogged drains- we stopped using it for this since I’ve gotten conflicting information on it. You pour in a 1/2 c. of baking soda, followed by a cup of vinegar. Let bubble a few minutes, and then run hot water down for a couple of minutes to flush it all through. I’ve heard that when not sufficiently flushed out, it can solidify in the drain. Since this is a popular suggestion, I didn’t want to ignore it here.
- Clean stained countertops – make a paste and scrub.
These are some uses, but there are lots more. Since baking soda is great at absorbing odors, it’s good for anything where odors are a concern (eg carpets and pet odors). Since it’s good at scrubbing, it’s good for that. When mixed with vinegar, it increases the potential uses! Baking soda is very inexpensive – I used to buy it in a 12 pound bag at Sam’s, now I buy a 50 lb bag (through my bulk source). (I also buy white vinegar by the gallon and keep it under the bathroom sink, as well as one next to the washing machine.) It’s non toxic, which means that you don’t have to worry about your little kids ingesting something poisonous. Because you can use it for so many things, it eliminates a lot of specific cleansers, saving you money, improving your health, and it’s better for the environment to boot!

Eddie Murphy was honoured with the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globes. Given Eddie Murphy's body of work as an actor, comedian, writer, producer, and singer, the audience was all ears when it came to his acceptance speech. Eddie Murphy cracked everyone up with a joke on Will Smith and the slapgate at last year's Oscars. He said, “I want to let you know that there is a definitive blueprint that you can follow to achieve success, prosperity, longevity and peace of mind,” as the room listened in rapt attention. Eddie Murphy added, “It is a blueprint and I have followed it my whole career. It is very simple, just do these three things: pay your taxes, mind your business and keep Will Smith's wife's name out of your f***ing mouth!” leaving the audience in splits.
A video of the acceptance speech was shared online by the official Twitter handle of the Golden Globe Awards. The caption read, “The biggest round of applause for Eddie Murphy, this year's Cecil B. DeMille Award recipient! Your decades of unbeatable comedy and incredible performances deserve to be acknowledged and celebrated!
???? The biggest round of applause for Eddie Murphy, this year's Cecil B. DeMille Award recipient! Your decades of unbeatable comedy and incredible performances deserve to be acknowledged and celebrated! ???? #GoldenGlobespic.twitter.com/IWiU6LEmmf— Golden Globe Awards (@goldenglobes) January 11, 2023
Eddie Murphy was referring to the infamous incident at the Academy Awards last year when Will Smith walked on stage and slapped host and comedian Chris Rock for making a joke about his wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith. It all began when Chris Rock, who was on stage, made a joke comparing Jada Pinkett Smith to G.I. Jane because of her shaved head. Jada Pinkett-Smith suffers from alopecia, a medical condition that causes hair fall.
The comment, however, did not go down well with Will Smith who walked on stage, slapped a surprised Chris Rock and returned to his seat. He then yelled, "Keep my wife's name out of your f*****g mouth." While Chris Rock continued the show despite being struck and visibly shaken, other actors such as Denzel Washington had to intervene to assuage all parties involved.
Subsequently, Will Smith issued an apology to Chris Rock. In an Instagram video, the Hollywood star, who won the Best Actor award for King Richard, explained why he did not apologise in his acceptance speech. “'Why didn't you apologise to Chris [Rock] in your acceptance speech?' I was fogged out by that point. It was all fuzzy. I've reached out to Chris [Rock] and the message that came back is that he is not ready to talk. When he is, he will reach out. So I will say to you, Chris [Rock]. I apologise to you. My behaviour was unacceptable and I am here whenever you are ready to talk,” Will Smith said. He also resigned as a member of the Academy. After the slapgate incident, the Academy banned Will Smith from attending the award ceremony for the next 10 years.
Meanwhile, Cecil B. DeMille award is an honour presented since 1952 to prolific filmmakers and performers in the entertainment industry Eddie Murphy received the award from his former co-stars Tracy Morgan and Jamie Lee Curtis.
Eddie Murphy, an Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner, is known for his work in films such as Daddy Day Care,Trading Places, Coming to America, Beverly Hills Cop and Doctor Dolittle, among others.

The Rise of Aimbot Cheats
Aimbot cheats have become increasingly prevalent in the world of online gaming. These cheats are designed to give players an unfair advantage by automatically aiming and shooting at their opponents, making it easier for them to win matches. While some may argue that using aimbots adds excitement and unpredictability to the gameplay, their negative impact on fair competition and the overall gaming experience cannot be ignored.
The Consequences of Aimbot Cheats
The use of aimbot cheats has serious consequences for both individual players and the gaming community as a whole. First and foremost, it undermines fair competition. When players use aimbots, it creates an imbalance between those who play legitimately and those who rely on cheats. This can lead to frustration, discouragement, and ultimately, a decline in player participation.
Moreover, aimbots can also ruin the experience for other players. Those who encounter a player using aimbot cheats often feel helpless and cheated. It diminishes the sense of accomplishment that comes from defeating an opponent through skill and strategy, as victories become attributed to the use of unfair advantages. This can lead to a toxic gaming environment filled with resentment and distrust.
Ways to Combat Aimbot Cheats
Thankfully, game developers and communities are taking steps to combat the spread of aimbot cheats. One effective method is the implementation of anti-cheat software. These tools detect and automatically ban players who are using aimbots or other cheat mechanisms. By regularly updating and improving these anti-cheat systems, game developers can minimize the prevalence of aimbot cheats and create a more fair playing field for all.
Another approach is raising awareness about the negative implications of using aimbot cheats. Game communities can actively educate their players on the importance of fair play, sportsmanship, and the detrimental effects of cheats. By fostering a culture of integrity and respect, players may be less likely to resort to aimbot cheats in the first place.
Fostering a Fair and Enjoyable Gaming Environment
Ultimately, it is up to each player to uphold the values of fair play and sportsmanship in online gaming. It is essential to remember that the purpose of playing games is to have fun, challenge oneself, and connect with other players. Using aimbot cheats goes against these principles and compromises the integrity of the gaming experience.
Instead, players should focus on improving their skills through practice, learning from defeats, and embracing the challenge of fair competition. By doing so, not only will players gain a deeper sense of fulfillment from their achievements, but they will contribute to a more positive and enjoyable gaming environment for all.
The Importance of Reporting Aimbot Cheaters
If you encounter a player using aimbot cheats, it is crucial to report them to the game administrators or support team. By providing evidence and reporting suspicious behavior, you are helping to maintain the integrity of the game and protect the gaming community from unfair practices. Remember, your contribution can make a difference.
The Future of Online Gaming
As technology continues to advance, so do the methods used to detect and combat aimbot cheats. Game developers are continuously working to stay ahead of cheat developers and implement more sophisticated anti-cheat systems. Additionally, the growing awareness and intolerance towards aimbot cheats within the gaming community are signs of progress towards a fairer and more enjoyable gaming landscape.
With the collective effort of game developers, communities, and individual players, aimbot cheats can be effectively minimized or even eradicated. By valuing fair play and supporting efforts to prevent cheating, we can ensure that online gaming remains a vibrant and challenging platform for players worldwide.

A local farm was selling pumpkins for $2.00, so I bought 3 to use on my porch. There’s something very satisfying about supporting local businesses. For my fall porch deco I used my funky candle holder, a basket I found at Goodwill for $1.99 (I painted the sign with chalkboard paint), and a mum plant I bought on clearance at Walmart for $3.99. I added some of my other diy projects and some fall finery from our yard. I’ll let the pictures do the talking. Easy project – spray paint an old banged up watering can! Click here to see more fall decorating projects on my Pinterest board. What’s on your deck?
Here’s a simple piece of DIY decor for you – use words as accents for home decor to add interest to any room. (UPDATED) In my guest room I want to create a warm cozy feeling, something that would reflect how we feel about our guests. There’s nothing like feeling loved! The “L” – second hand store for $1.25 The “E” – TJ Maxx for $5.00 The “V” – from Hobby Lobby, $2.00 after using a 40% off coupon. The heart shaped pine cone wreath is an old piece of decor that’s been floating around here for years. Here it is all put together: I want to paint one or more of the letters, but have not decided what colors to paint them. What do you think? I am going back and forth with color choices because I want to use some of the same letters to change it up … Read more
Do you re-purpose? I saw on Pinterest a wine rack that was re-purposed into a towel holder. Here is the post from Ashley at Rustic Living, who had the original idea. Ashley has a lot of neat ideas about decorating in a rustic look. She got her wine rack very cheaply at a consignment shop, but I searched online for the rack and found it but it was super expensive at retail price. So I spent the past year looking for a wine rack that I liked, but it also had to be affordable and fit into my planned decor for my master bath. I finally found the one I now use at a consignment shop in Rib Mountain. I bought it for $15.00 and I didn’t even have to paint it! Here it is with my new towels from Kohls, of course! What have you re-purposed?

Choose the right sunscreen when you visit Hawaii. Some types may soon be banned
Choose carefully which sunscreen you bring on your next Hawaiian vacation. Hawaii will become the first state in the U.S. to severely restrict sales of certain sunscreen products if the governor signs a bill sent to him last week.
The bill, which cleared its final legislative hurdle May 3, would ban the sale, as of Jan. 1, 2021, of sunscreens containing oxybenzone or octinoxate. The legislation says the intention is to “preserve marine ecosystems.”
Studies have found that Hawaii’s already fragile coral reefs are harmed by oxybenzone, also known as BP-3. It washes off sunbathers and swimmers and drifts onto coral, contributing to problems such as DNA damage and deformities in baby coral.
A 2015 report from the National Ocean Service, a federal agency, revealed that oxybenzone “is highly toxic to juvenile corals and other marine life.”
The chemical is a core ingredient in more than 3,500 skin-care products sold around the world. So what sun protection should you use instead?
A Live Science blog article said “mineral sunscreens that use zinc oxide or titanium dioxide to physically block the sun’s rays are still allowed. These sunscreens have fallen out of favor because they often leave a white sheen on the skin, but marine biologists say it’s worth looking a little goofy to save reefs.”
Also, a handful of sunscreens that don’t contain BP-3 are on the market. One is Raw Elements, whose marine-friendly products are sampled and sold at a number of resorts across Hawaii.
Raw Elements also has partnered with Hawaiian Airlines in a program to protect the reefs. Through June, the airline will sell Raw Elements products at discounted prices on flights between the U.S. mainland and the islands.
Hawaii Gov. David Ige has not said whether he will sign the bill. Spokeswoman Cindy McMillan said the measure is going through the usual “policy and legal review.”
