While many products derived from cannabis are still illegal in the USA, CBD use is protected by several state laws. As the legal distinctions remain as confusing as ever, research has shown cannabidiol products to be used for medicinal use. Because of its difficult-to-understand legality, there’s still much research to be done to investigate CBD side effects.
Lisa Hamilton, a jeweler and doula in Brooklyn, NY, knows about the side effects. She recently tried CBD for the shoulder pain that plagued her five years after an accident. Her doctor certified that she was in chronic pain, which under New York State law allowed her to buy from a state dispensary. One Friday, she swallowed two 10-mg capsules, the amount recommended at the dispensary, then took another two on Saturday. “By Sunday, it felt like I’d gotten hit by a truck. Every muscle and joint ached,” Hamilton says. She cut back to one pill a day the following week, but still felt hungover. She stopped after that.
In a study investigating CBD-drug interactions, CBD’s relationship with the Cytochrome P450-complex enzyme proved especially intriguing. This enzyme is the active compound in over half of the pharmaceutical medications being prescribed today, and it is the method by which the drug can treat physical symptoms. It is also responsible for the processes in which a drug is activated, or “metabolized” within the liver.
75 YRS YOUNG, retired police officer. Bad back, neck, cranial surgery, prostrate surgery broken arm with picked nerve, 4 way bypass, can’t get a good night sleep. 6 weeks ago, My Primary care told me to get 100% pure CBD oil. He did for his injured knee. I did and my pain is 95% gone. My anxiety at night is also gone, no xanax. No pain pills. Have a dry mouth in the morning. Started with 500mg 1 drop under the tongue before bed, and morning. After a couple of day, mostly gone. 70%.. I kicked it up to 2 drops. Now pain free and no problems. My wife 65yrs, bad knees and back. Sleepless,a
So, you need a CBD-induced mood change. You need to calm your mind, boost your vibe, refocus, and perhaps meditate on a few things. There are plenty of ways to get the right dose, but you’d prefer these effects to settle in quickly and that CBD edible is definitely going to take its time kicking in. Topical creams won’t tackle the full-body feel you’re going for either.
CBD shows promise in the treatment of anxiety disorders, according to a report published in the journal Neurotherapeutics in 2015. Looking at results from experimental research, clinical trials, and epidemiological studies, the report’s authors found evidence that CBD may help treat generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. However, the authors caution that human-based research on CBD and anxiety is fairly limited at this point.
Another point worth clarifying is the difference between hemp seed oil (or hemp oil) and CBD oil. There’s confusion on this point for the very good reason that both CBD oil and hemp seed oil are extracted from the industrial hemp plant. But there’s a big difference between the 2. Hemp seed oil has been pressed from hemp seed, and it’s great for a lot of things — it’s good for you, tastes great, and can be used in soap, paint — even as biodiesel fuel.
While hemp seeds are undoubtedly a ‘superfood’ and provide ample vitamins and minerals, they don’t typically contain a large amount of CBD. Therefore, you shouldn’t use Good Hemp’s product as a CBD oil substitute. (Obviously, you wouldn’t expect to receive much CBD in a product that costs less than ten dollars… or in this case, ten British pounds).
It’s worth noting that even psychoactive cannabis — what’s often called marijuana — is also considered to be extremely safe, contrary to what the government wants us to believe . It’s so safe that it’s basically impossible for an adult human to ingest a fatal dose, although they can certainly make themselves feel very sick from eating or smoking too much. There’s every reason to believe that CBD extracts from hemp plants are as safe, or even safer, than psychoactive strains of cannabis.
Many people ask, “where can I find CBD vape oil for sale?” If you want to buy CBD vape oil, though there are specific guidelines, it is legal to buy CBD in the United States and you can find CBD vape oil for sale all over the Internet. In order for it to be sold and acquired, the industrial hemp must be grown outside of the U.S. and is primarily imported from various European countries. High retail prices are reflecting extremely high importing fees, development processes, manufacturing, and multiple layers of required testing in determining potency.
Our bodies are thought to produce endocannabinoids by the billions every day. “We always thought the ‘runner’s high’ was due to the release of dopamine and endorphins. But now we know the euphoria is also from an endocannabinoid called anandamide,” its name derived from the Sanskrit word for bliss, says Joseph Maroon, MD, clinical professor and vice chairman of neurosurgery at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. We produce these natural chemicals all day, but they fade quickly because enzymes pop up to destroy them. That’s where CBD comes in: By blocking these enzymes, CBD allows the beneficial compounds to linger.
Because they can’t. In most states, veterinarians risk losing their licenses if they recommend cannabinoids for pets. That may start to change soon though. Colorado is leading the charge in this, as in so many cannabinoid-related issues. And legislation is in the works in both New York and California that would allow veterinarians to legally discuss the use of cannabis products with their clients.
It says that during recent years, many strains of cannabis have become the focus of legislation of governments and different clinical studies. And the most prominent focus is out on CBD because of its newfound popularity. In contrast to THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD is essentially is not intoxicating and present a different range of pharmacological benefits for the user. For example, it is anxiolytic, anti-inflammatory, antiemetic, and antipsychotic.
It comes as a significant natural supplement in the market today. House of Healing Hemp Oil gets made of 83.3mg of top-notch hemp oil supplement. You may not like the natural plant-like taste; don’t worry. Hemp Oil for Pain Anxiety Relief comes with a tasty tropical flavor. It contains six fatty acids and 3 Omega acids, making the benefits associated enormous. It is perfect in reducing inflammation.
Green Label hemp oil has the lowest CBD content of our RSHO™ because the cannabinoids in the oil have not been decarboxylated, making Green Label oil higher in CBDa than our other oils, containing a total of 50 mg of CBD per serving. Our popular Blue Label RSHO™ registers in the middle of our pure hemp oil potencies, containing 85 mg of CBD per serving. Finally, our filtered Gold Label RSHO™ tops out with 120 mg of CBD per serving, the highest of any of our products.
Physically, the ECS is one of the most significant systems in the human body. It is made up of thousands of neurological receptors throughout the brain and body, all passing messages to one another in order for the body to function. The ECS is known to be responsible for a variety of motor functions, immune system functions, and nervous system functions as well. Through this intricate network of receptors, various enzymes, proteins, and other components pass signals to and from one another, thus helping us to physically adapt to changes.
I just started taking CBD oil last night. I have always had a problem with burping fish oil until I started us Omega Red. I have already noticed with my first two doses of CDB oil that I am burping it really bad and it is awful. I have done it on an empty stomach and then ate and I also took it on a full stomach. Any tips on what I can do to prevent burping it.
Instances of PTSD (abbreviation for Post Traumatic Stress Disorders), have been on the rise in recent years. It is something which many veterans come home with after serving many years over seas, and is also be found in people who have been through severe trauma. The condition can make people go to extremes, and can even make some take their own lives. If you are suffering from PTSD, the good news is that CBD oil can be of help. CBD oil is well known to produce anti anxiety and anti-inflammatory effects. After it is ingested, it actually slows everything down and induces a calming feeling.

There are thousands of pharmaceutical drugs that utilize the CYP3A4 enzyme to take effect within the body. Therefore, it is wise to seek medical advice prior to taking CBD in conjunction with any medication, and ask about your medication’s reactions specifically. Even so, some of the most common pharmaceutical drugs that may induce a non-favorable reaction with CBD are as follows:

Akwa Ibom State Government is reportedly counting its lost after some robbers invaded the office of the Press Secretary, Ekerete Udoh, and made away with an undisclosed amount of money running into millions of naira.
It was gathered that the stolen money which was kept in a Ghana-must-go bag was meant to be used as payment for journalists, Daily Trust reports.
The thieves reportedly tampered with the locks of the office before gaining entrance and emptied the contents of the Ghana-must-go bag, in which the money was kept and left on the floor.
When newsmen visited the scene of the incident, they met the Secretary to the CPS lamenting, saying it was the first time the money, which has always been in her custody over the years was stolen.
A source familiar with the situation said; “The money came in since yesterday afternoon but they refused to share it to the people it was meant for. So, the thief came in the night and destroyed the keys and gained access to the office of the Secretary to the CPS.”
“This is not the first time the government house press centre is being robbed. We have lost about three Plasma Televisions, one at the reception, one in the reporter’s office and the other in the office used by cameramen. In all of these, no meeting, no replacement.”
Further investigations revealed that no security camera is located anywhere at the press centre making it impossible to trace the culprits.
When contacted, the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Udom Emmanuel, Mr Ekerete Udoh declined to make comments, but rather assured that those who were meant to be paid would get their money.
KanyiDaily had also reported how Imo State Government task force located a warehouse belonging to Nkechi, wife of former Governor, Rochas Okorocha.

New York City has 8.2 million people within its environs. That's bigger than 40 of our nation's 50 states and many other countries. NYC is twice as big as America's second largest city, LA.
In short, we are truly America's premiere city.
Approximately 5 million people live in Brooklyn and Queens. Half a million people live on Staten Island. And about 1.5 million live in the Bronx, and 1.5 lives in Manhattan. And more and more people want to live in Manhattan.
That's not a surprise, but where will they all go?
That's the subject of this big article today. From a distance, the idea of more and more people living on the skinny 13-mile island is horrifying, some kind of Malthusian nightmare. One person even speculates that, with more people in Manhattan, it'll be like living in a real-life "Blade Runner" world.
But fear not! Stunning as it may seem, Manhattan actually has plenty of room for more people. More buildings are rising. More housing is being built. And although 1.5 million people live in Manhattan, that's no where near to how many people lived here more than 100 years ago when close to 2.3 million people populated the borough.
So, although Manhattan is getting more crowded, we can deal with it ... for now.
Also, there's this lovely article about the life of Scott Stringer, the Manhattan Borough President who is also, like yours truly, a new father. He may be the most prominent man in Manhattan, and I may be a nobody who lives in Queens, but it's great to know we're united by both of us having to get up at 5 AM for baby feedings.

The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage of the Cultural Heritage Administration (Acting General Director: Kim Samki) has published 『Ancient Tombs in Zhetisu Kazakhstan』, introducing the ancient tomb culture of the Zhetisu area in Kazakhstan, which was a key point of the Silk Road, a World Heritage Site.
The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage has been carrying out Joint Academic Research Projects with the Institute of Archaeology of A. Kh. Margulan and the National Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which are located on the Central Asian Silk Road, to inquire into the aspects of our ancient cultural exchanges since 2014. This publication is the very first report, that includes the outcomes of the distribution surveys and excavations conducted on the tombs in the Zhetisu area by the Archaeological Studies Division of the National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage and the National Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan between 2015 and 2018 in cooperation.
This report introduces the archaeological culture that corresponds to the early stage of the Iron Age in Kazakhstan (8 – 2 Century B.C.) and includes results of the excavation of the Kurgans and various natural scientific, multidisciplinary research results on exhumed artefacts.
The tombs in the Zhetisu area are Cairn* tombs. This type of tombs appear both in Ancient Korean and Kazakh cultures, in which Korean tombs are called Wooden Chamber Tombs with Stone Mounds* and Kazakh tombs are called Kurgans (Курган). The academia has always been paying a lot of attention to the connection of the two tomb cultures due to the similarities in their forms and artefacts exhumed despite the great temporal and spatial differences of their developments.
* Cairn tombs: Tombs with stone-pile mounds including the Mongolian Pazyryk burials, the Southern Siberian Kurgan tombs, Kazakh Kurgan tombs, etc.. The appearance of large stone-pile tombs in the Three Kingdoms Period point out the establishment of ancient states.
* Wooden Chamber Tombs with Stone Mounds: A type of tomb, in which either a hole is dug underground or an outer coffin is made, above which a mound of stone-pile and earth heap are placed.
The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage has conducted geophysical prospection and excavation surveys on Ancient Tombs of Katartobe, located in the Southeast of Zhetisu area over 3 years to inquire into the aspects of the exchanges between those two cultures based on this viewpoint and carried out distribution studies on the tombs of the Zhetisu area. According to physical anthropological characteristics, individuals buried in the tombs turned out to be Caucasoid*, and stable isotope analyses* revealed that their diet mostly consisted of meat and dairy. Also, dogs, horses, sheep, cows, etc. were verified to have been used for sacrifices through animal bone analyses.
* Caucasoid: Term for ‘white race’ (next to Negroid and Mongoloid)
* Stable Isotope Analysis: Analysis applying isotopes except the radioactive elements – an analysis method used in archaeology in order to figure out sources of nutrients.
『Ancient Tombs in Zhetisu Kazakhstan』 will be distributed to national and public libraries, research institutions in- and outside of the country, etc., and be made available online on the website of the NRICH (www.nrich.go.kr, Cultural Heritage Research Knowledge Portal) for public access.
The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage of the Cultural Heritage Administration as an Executive Agency will continue to elaborate to study the interchange between the Central Asian area and our ancient culture and consequently contribute to the research of the history of world civilization.

Over 80 per cent of south Sudanese have no acess to proper latrines and toilets, a survey conducted by Southern Sudan Center for Census, Statistic and Evaluation-SSCCSE has revealed in an annual report launched by the South Sudan Vice President Dr Riek Machar in Juba.
Such a situation, the survey went on to reveal, puts the lives of people in southern Sudan in danger of getting infected with diseases like diarrhea, cholera and typhoid.
“It is terrible that such a big number of people have no access to toilets” said ministry of health’s assistant commisioner, Vincent Lukudu. “There is need to educate people about the importance of constructing latrines and toilets. If need be, we should pass a by-law that any head of family found with no toilet is punished.”
The report also indicated that 83% of Southern Sudanese in rural areas live in grass thatched huts, and food insecurity is a major challenge affecting almost every sector in their growth.
In an interview, Dr. Riek Machar said that the survey report goes a long way in revealing what is on the ground and will help government to plan for it’s people appropriately.
“Our government is committed to high standard of governance. Such statistical data book gives us the best knowledge on how to develop rural areas in accessing proper sanitation, housing, and social services as it was in the vision of the late Dr. John Garang De Mabior,” said Dr. Riek Machar.
According to him, one of the biggest challenges of South Sudan is food insecurity which hinders development. Adding that the long civil war had deprived the people of South Sudan of their property and rendered them less productive and vulnerable.
The Chairperson of the SSCCSE, Isaiah Chol Aruai, called upon government and all the institutions and citizens of South Sudan to use the report and draw their attention to the importance of statistical thinking, and new knowledge.

As mentioned in previous posts, Jason King is the founder of Sean’s Outpost, a homeless outreach center in Pensacola, FL. So far, Sean’s Outpost has fed 20,000 people through donations. Hold up, let me say that again, 20,000 people have been fed with Bitcoin donations. Simply amazing. With the help of the generous Bitcoin community, he also acquired nine acres of property that will be used as a homeless sanctuary. The landlord is even allowing him to pay for the property in Bitcoin.
Jason named the property Satoshi Forest in honor of the mysterious creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. His vision for the land incorporates permaculture techniques of gardening, food forestry, aquaponics, a kitchen area to prepare meals, and paying the homeless in Bitcoin to build their own portable small homes situated on trailer hitches. There has never been anything like Satoshi Forest in Pensacola, so this is groundbreaking for the homeless community here; who was left to struggle even more after a panhandling ordinance passed outlawing homelessness. Satoshi Forest will also be a self-sustaining crypto-community. The Forest backs up to water, which will be useful for self-sufficiency, and plans for a stage will provide a unique venue for events and speakers on a variety of educational topics.
This past weekend, I got a sneak peek at the property and helped with cleaning up. We probably covered maybe a quarter of an acre between six people, and much work still needs to be done, but the experience was an exciting one and the difference afterwards was noticeable. From old carpets trapped by roots to the ground to snakes to a beautiful but pesky kudzu invasion, we encountered some interesting items during the clean-up. Ever the klutz, I discovered a bucket containing a wasp nest covered with dozens of wasps, but escaped right before they were able to swarm (luckily it was chilly and they were slowed from their usual velocity). Later, Jason contained and triple bagged the wasp nest which we joked no doubt could have been a useful tool for some uncivil disobedience, but alas, we lacked the time and had to press on.
The weather was agreeable for the work being done, and my husband Joseph scaled a large tree covered with the invasive kudzu. Although the vine covered most of the tree and surrounding area, Joseph, Jason, Adam, and Jesse were able to successfully take much of it down. I spent much of my time in shadier sections collecting various pieces of trash and rotted wood, using loppers to clear my way through some of the thicker parts and brushing off spiders and stickers. Aside from a couple scratches, we made it to lunch unscathed. While we had to leave early for a wedding, Jason and the others stayed behind to work more. There are still nine acres to cover and any additional help is appreciated. You can donate to Sean’s Outpost here: http://seansoutpost.com/donate/
Coming up this weekend, Jason will be holding a Satoshi Forest camp out to celebrate the five year anniversary of Satoshi’s paper Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, which laid out the concept of Bitcoin. There will be food and ample room for camping and you can RSVP by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.org. Please come join us for what will be the beginning of an autonomous community in Pensacola fueled by Bitcoin! I’ll be publishing a write up of my experience there next week.
Here’s some pictures Jason took of the clean up:

World No. 1 Serena Williams opened defense of her Family Circle Cup title with a straight-set win today on Billie Jean King Court.
Coming off a victory in the finals at the Sony Open on hardcourts in Miami on Saturday, Williams was not at her sharpest in her first match of the year on clay. But she was plenty good enough for a 6-2, 6-3 win over Italian Camila Giorgi in a second-round match.
“It was a bit awkward for me today,” said Williams, a two-time FCC winner who could face 2009 champ Sabine Lisicki in the third round. “But it was good to get one under my belt.”
Jelena Jankovic needed almost three hours today to outlast American Melanie Oudin and keep alive her hopes for a second Family Circle Cup title.
Jankovic, ranked No. 18, gutted out a 6-4, 5-7, 6-4 victory over the 21-year-old Oudin. Jankovic, seeded ninth, won the Family Circle Cup title in 2007, but had been 0-2 in her career against Oudin.
Rising American star Madison Keys, 18, moved to the second round with a 7-6, 6-4 win over Alexandra Cadantu.
American qualifier Vania King pulled off a first-round upset knocking off 14th-seeded Yaroslava Shvedova. King, ranked No. 136, rallied for a 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 win over the world’s No. 37 player.
Earlier, 15th-seeded Sabine Lisicki got her chase for a second Family Circle Cup championship off to a fast start, sprinting to a first-round victory over Anna Tatishvili in just 41 minutes.
The 2009 Family Circle Cup champ won by 6-0, 6-0, on Billie Jean King Court, belting 26 winners to earn a second-round match with American qualifier Mallory Burdette.
Sabine Lisicki d. Anna Tatishvili, 6-0, 6-0
Marina Erakovic d. Daniela Hantuchova, 7-6, 6-4
Vania King d. Yaroslava Shvedova, 4-6, 6-1, 6-4
Jelena Jankovic d. Melanie Oudin, 6-4, 5-7, 6-4
Madison Keys d. Alexandra Cadantu, 7-6, 6-4
Julia Goerges d. Yulia Putintseva, 6-2, 6-3
Romina Oprandi d. Mirjana Lucic-Baroni, 4-6, 6-1, 6-3
Laura Robson d. Estrella Cabeza Candela, 6-2, 6-2
Serena Williams d. Camila Giorgi, 6-2, 6-3
Stefanie Voegele d. Carla Suarez Navarro, 6-2, 6-4
Sorana Cirstea d. Anabel Medina Garrigues, walkover
Jessica Pegula d. Mona Barthel, 7-6-61
Vavara Lepchenko d. Mathilde Johansson, 6-4, 1-6, 6-1.

New American River Parkway Signs Warn of Potential Coyote Danger
By Ramon Coronado, The Sacramento Bee, Calif.
May 22--Prompted by a recent rash of coyote attacks on children in Southern California suburbs, American River Parkway rangers have posted signs warning park visitors of the wild canine in Carmichael."Our rangers have noticed quite a few," said Steve Flannery, the county's chief park ranger.
Three 3-foot-high, A-frame portable signs are up at the William Pond Recreation Area and at the Harrington Drive access to the American River near Arden Way.
"It is not a problem yet, but if it's going to be a problem, it will be there," Flannery said of the two locations.
The warning signs, which advise that coyotes are frequently in this area, went up earlier this month after a half-dozen children were reported to have been victims of coyote attacks in the Lake Arrowhead mountain resort area and in suburbs of east Los Angeles.
One coyote snapped its jaws onto the buttocks of a girl and another coyote grabbed a girl by the head and tried to drag her from her front yard until her mother scared it away, according to published reports.
None of the attacks resulted in serious injury. But they have left parents jittery and wildlife experts puzzled in the south state.
Along the American River, there hasn't been an attack on a human in the past 30 years, Flannery said.
In late February, an unleashed dog was chased by a coyote in the William Pond area, he said.
And two years ago, a coyote was trapped and killed after it chased a dog and its owner, who had snatched her pet up and fled.
This time of the year, Flannery said, coyotes give birth and need more food for themselves and their pups. Coyotes are highly protective of their breeding area and don't like their domestic counterparts sniffing near their dens, he said.
The American River signs also remind dog owners of the county requirement to keep their pets on a leash.
Flannery says he believes that local coyotes are more territorial than they are aggressive.
"We don't want to alarm people, but we want to keep people on the alert," he said.
For Guy Galante, who photographs coyotes along the river, the furry creature has become a passion during the past six months.
"I'm out there just about every day," said the 35-year-old Arden Arcade resident.
"They usually see you before you see them," he said.
"They mostly travel by themselves, but at night you can hear them together," Galante said.
The former middle school teacher said the recently posted signs are a good thing.
"I think it's important to let people know that there are coyotes in the area," he said.
Galante recommended park users carry whistles to scare off coyotes that get too close.
"People should respect a coyote's space. Let them be fearful so that we can live in the same place together," Galante said.

An Associated Press review of firearms-related legislation shows that state legislatures mostly fell back into predictable and partisan patterns after mass shootings in Las Vegas and Parkland, Florida. New Hampshire was no exception.
The Republican-led Legislature rejected several gun control measures in the last session, choosing instead to expand a law on where firearms can be carried.
The Senate in February rejected a bill to ban weapon devices known as bump stocks that allow guns to be fired at faster rates. The House later blocked the introduction of a bill that would have both banned bump stocks and prohibited those under age 21 from buying any type of gun.
The only gun-related bill that passed was one allowing guns to be carried on snowmobiles, aircraft and off-road vehicles.

Ticker: Ex-Nebraska RB heavily praises Lions' Abdullah
Ahman Green had a pretty glowing scouting report on another former Nebraska running back — the Detroit Lions' second-round draft pick, Ameer Abdullah — for omaha.com:
"(His style is) going to translate very well, especially with the wide-open, spread offenses being a style now other than the straight drop back," Green said. "Now you have the spread that's similar to what he ran at Nebraska.
"I know for sure that Detroit runs a variation of that with Calvin Johnson, Matt Stafford and Joique Bell, the running back they already had there. So he'll be another weapon for the coach to integrate into that offense.
"(Abdullah's) dynamic, he can drop his shoulder, he can run in the middle if he has to. I've told him many times that when he gets to this level he's going to learn his strengths and weaknesses. ...
"He'll find that out at OTAs and definitely in the preseason. He's a guy that will be a problem for defenses. He'll give them problems."
A second opinion ...
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Especially when it comes to the Lions.
Look good, play good, right? Dress for success?
Just a week ago, their Honolulu blue and silver uniforms ranked 26th in Paul Lukas' "Uni Watch NFL Uniform Power Rankings" at ESPN.com.
Lukas' complaint was that the black trim — a legacy of the Matt Millen era — "tarted up" the look.
Now the foxsports.com Fashion Police have their own rankings, and the Lions come in at No. 3, behind only the San Francisco 49ers and San Diego Chargers.
Why do the Fashion Police like the Lions' look?
Because the Honolulu blue and silver has been "a snazzy color combination for decades, but black trim added in 2003 gave the look an edge that an often lackluster team needed."
■ Lions linebacker DeAndre Levy is No. 66 — seven spots lower than last year — in the NFL Network's ongoing countdown of the "Top 100 Players of 2015," voted on by fellow players. He joins three teammates on the list so far, defensive tackle Haloti Ngata at No. 82, wide receiver Golden Tate at No. 85 and safety Glover Quin at No. 88.
Ten players are announced weekly, 10 p.m. Wednesdays.

I wrote an article about why it is cheaper to buy a house then it is to rent a house in Greeley a few weeks ago. There are many more advantages to buying a home then it being cheaper than renting. When you buy a home you are paying down your mortgage every month, you are getting a huge tax advantage every month and you own the house. You don’t have to ask the landlord for permission to paint, make repairs or have pets.
When you buy a home you are building equity with your payments
When you buy a home you are most likely going to get a mortgage to finance the house (see our home buyer’s checklist for how to start the process). A portion of your payment will pay for taxes, insurance and interest on the loan. A portion of your payment will also pay down the principal balance on your mortgage (unless you get an interest only loan).
The amount of your monthly payment that goes towards paying off your principal may not be a lot in the beginning. The amount is going to be much more than if you were renting since nothing would go towards your mortgage in that case.
How much money would go towards paying off the principal on a house payment?
Banks use a very complicated equation to figure out how much of each payment goes to principal pay off and interest. The easiest way to figure this amount is to visit a site like bankrate.com and use their calculators. They have a great calculator that will tell you your house payment and how much of that payment goes to the principal payoff. If you want a rough idea, a $100,000 mortgage may have $1,500 paid to the principal amount each year. As that principal goes down, more and more of your payment will pay off the principal and less will go towards interest.
What are the tax advantages of owning a home?
The United States government has some awesome tax advantages for home owners. If you are occupying your house as your personal residence you can deduct the interest you pay on your loan. The details can be found here in the IRS website. Not only does buying a home in Greeley cost less upfront money then renting, but the tax advantages could save you hundreds more each month.
Prices historically appreciate in Greeley, Colorado
Prices don’t always go up every year as we saw a few years ago. However, historically prices have always increased given enough time. If you own your home long enough the chances are your home value is going to increase. The best part is that if you live in your home for two years, those profits could be tax free! Prices in Greeley have been increasing significantly over the last couple of years.
How to pay zero taxes when you profit on a personal residence
According to the current United States tax code, if you live in a house as your primary residence for two out of the last five years, you won’t pay taxes on any capital gains up to a certain point. That means you could buy a house for $50,000, fix it up a little, live there for two years and then sell it for a $50,000 profit and pay no taxes on that profit. Please consult a tax professional to understand your particular situation.
Buying houses that are below market value in Greeley
Not only are there great tax advantages, equity pay down and possibly appreciation with homes, but you can buy them below market value. Our team lists many HUD and REO properties in Greeley and the surrounding area. Many times these homes are priced well below market value and buyers can get an awesome deal. When you buy below market value you gain instant equity, which is tough to do with any other investment. Many times these houses need some work, but in some instances they do not.
When you own a home, it is yours
Owning a house may be the biggest advantage to buying a house. When you buy a home it is yours and you can do what you want with it. That is as long as it is legal, you don’t violate any covenants, and you do what you promised to do when you borrowed money on the home.
Owning a home means you can paint it, put in new carpet, put in new lights, have pets and much much more without permission from anyone.
How can you get started buying a house in Greeley?

In this spring’s JIBTV feature program “Washoku World Challenge,” head judge and chef Yoshihiro Murata reported that approximately 118,000 Japanese restaurants are in operation worldwide. With data like this, the international appeal of 和食 (わしょく—traditional Japanese cuisine—cannot be denied. Even people in Indianapolis, the landlocked midwestern city where I live, profess their love for sushi, tempura, and ramen on social media. For many of my friends, going out to a Japanese restaurant for dinner is a special occasion, popular for birthdays, anniversaries, and other celebrations. However, thanks to NHK World-Japan’s program “Dining with the Chef,” Japanese food need not be solely reserved for expensive meals out: by watching the hands-on techniques shared by the program’s knowledgeable hosts, home cooks of all skill levels and backgrounds can enjoy making authentic Japanese food in their own kitchens.
|Typical vegetarian dinners I prepared while living in Tokyo|
Part of the appeal of “Dining with the Chef” is the broad range of recipes shared, thanks to the unique format of the show. Whereas many cooking shows feature one main host, “Dining with the Chef” is actually a program in two parts: Chef Tatsuo Saito and Yu Hayami host the “Authentic Japanese Cooking” arm of the show, while Rika Yukimasa and Patrick Harlan host “Rika’s Tokyo Cuisine.” With decades of experience in the food industry, vivacious Chef Saito mainly shares washoku recipes and techniques á la haute cuisine; in contrast, Rika is a skilled home cook and mother who introduces her own unique take on popular Japanese staples, and offers practical suggestions for substitutions of ingredients that might be difficult to find outside of Japan. As a home cook myself, I have tried recipes from both Chef Saito and Rika with great success, and frequently apply the concepts I have learned to other types of cuisine.
Another invaluable aspect of “Dining with the Chef” is its online presence on NHK World-Japan’s website. Recipes introduced on the program are conveniently found there. It truly is a wealth of information, with a plethora of recipes organized into different categories. For someone with special dietary needs—I, for example, am a lacto-ovo vegetarian who has just recently started eating fish—this is a much-needed, helpful feature. I love browsing through the “Beans & Tofu” category and reading about new ways to try natto and tofu; the “Vegetables” category, with its colorful, mouth-watering photographs, is a feast for the eyes.
While cookbooks and magazines are a great tool for home cooks, actually watching a dish being prepared adds another layer of understanding to the process. “Dining with the Chef” takes the concept of Japanese cooking—a cuisine that, to me, once seemed too difficult and time-intensive to prepare—and makes it accessible for a global audience in an entertaining, fun way. Check it out today and dive into the delicious world of Japanese home cooking!

The High Level Political Forum (HLPF) side event of 12 July chaired by H.E. Ambassador Katalin Annamária Bogyay, Hungary’s Permanent Representative to the UN addressed the question whether women are meaningfully involved in SDG 6 on water and sanitation in Member States’ national implementation plans for the Sustainable Development Goals.
With the contribution of the former chairperson of the UN Secretary-Generals' Advisory Board on Water and Sanitation (UNSGAB), UN-Women and Women and Water Partnership, representatives from South-Africa, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands and the European External Action Service shared their experiences in terms of combining SDGs 5 and 6 and reflected on the way ahead.
Agenda 2030 and the SDGs give unique guidance both on women’s empowerment (SDG5) and the importance of water and sanitation (SDG 6) as well as the connection between the two. Recent reports inter alia by the High Level Panel on Water (HLPW), the UN Water synthesis report, the UN Women and Global Water Partnership Action Piece all make the connection and suggest venues for action. The UN Water report explicitly mentions the connection between SDG targets and gender inequality [SDG 5.1, 5.2, 5.4, 5.5] and other inequalities [10.1–10.3]. The reports signal that as countries roll out their national implementation strategies, it is paramount that investments in these and other strategic areas are prioritized. Addressing both SDG 5 and 6 requires a strong emphasis on strategic gender interests and redressing existing inequalities in power and status, not just addressing practical needs.
The HLPF side event of 12 July chaired by H.E. Ambassador Katalin Annamária Bogyay, Hungary’s Permanent Representative to the UN addressed the question whether women are meaningfully involved in implementing SDG 6 on water and sanitation in Member States’ national implementation plans for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through discussing the interlinkages of SDG 5 and 6.
Ms Uschi Eid, former chairperson of the UN Secretary-Generals' Advisory Board on Water and Sanitation (UNSGAB) gave a keynote speech on the results of the review of the voluntary national reports about the role of women in the implementation of SDG 6 and water related targets.
Member States shared their experiences around the integration of women as well as on the combined implementation of SDG 5 and 6. H.E. Ms Pamela Tshwete, Deputy Minister of South-Africa for Water and Sanitation, Ms Mina Guli, Australia’s lead water advocate and famous ultra-runner, Mr Thomas Stratenwerth, Germany’s Water Director, Mr Niels Vlaanderen, Coordinator for International Water Affairs and Ms Carmen Marques Ruiz, Policy Coordinator for Environment and Water in the European External Action Service enriched the discussion.
Ms Lesha Witmer from the Women for Water Partnership Steering Committee talked about the state of affairs of recent reports and tools, followed by an exchange moderated by Ms Seemin Qayum from UN Women. Ms Mariet Verhoef-Cohen, President of Women for Water Partnership closed the event by summarizing the findings as recommendations to the HLPF.

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol.136, No.3, 233-241, 2007
Decontamination of vegetables sprayed with organophosphate pesticides by organophosphorus hydrolase and carboxylesterase (B1)
A genetically engineered Escherichia coli cell expressing both organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) and carboxyl esterase (CaE) B1 intracellularly was constructed and cultivated. The harvested wet cells were vacuum dried, and the storage stability of the dried cell powder was determined in terms of OPH activity. Over a period of 5 mo, the dried cells showed no significant decrease in the activities of the detoxifying enzymes. The crude enzymes in 50 mm citrate-phosphate buffer (pH 8.0) were able to degrade approx 97% of the organophosphate pesticides sprayed on cabbage. The detoxification efficiency was superior to that of the treatments of water, detergent, and a commercially available enzyme product. Additionally, the products of pesticide hydrolysis generated by treatment with the enzyme extract were determined to be virtually nontoxic.

The Philadelphia Eagles took down the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 25-11 in a battle of unbeatens Monday night at Raymond James Stadium. Here’s what you need to know:
- Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw for 277 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions, while RB D’Andre Swift racked up 130 yards on 16 carries. Hurts added another score on the ground, the 29th rushing TD of his career.
- Philadelphia’s defense limited Tampa Bay to 174 total yards (41 rushing) and QB Baker Mayfield to 15-of-25 passing for 146 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Mayfield’s pick late in the first half was the Buccaneers’ first turnover of the season.
- The Eagles are one of three remaining undefeated teams in the NFL after Week 3, joining the Miami Dolphins and San Francisco 49ers.
The Athletic’s instant analysis:
Eagles show signs of growth
Hurts said it last week: the Eagles are a work in progress, and Monday night, the quarterback and his teammates confirmed that statement by showing signs of growth on offense from Week 2 to Week 3. But despite statistically dominating the hosting Buccaneers, the Eagles were still far from perfect and could have won by even more if not for a few self-inflicted wounds and missed opportunities.
Philadelphia turned in another dominant rushing performance on the back of Swift, and Hurts recorded his first 200-plus passing game of the season. But two interceptions in scoring position limited the Eagles’ output. If Philadelphia can reduce those miscues, it will reach last season’s level of effectiveness. — Jones
Philadelphia defense shines despite injuries
Defensively, the Eagles didn’t appear to struggle because of injuries in their secondary and that’s because of the pressure their front is able to generate, making it hard for opposing quarterbacks to find comfort in the pocket and settle into a rhythm. Philly has some promising depth in the secondary as well, as rookie safety Sydney Brown made a couple of nice plays, including a touchdown-saving deflection while covering Mike Evans.
It’s pretty scary that even though the Eagles have yet to put it all together on both sides of the ball, they’re pulling off victories because of their ability to make the clutch plays on both sides of the ball when they have to have them. — Jones
Tampa Bay struggles against better competition
Monday night was the truth-teller game for the Bucs, who like the Eagles, entered the game with a 2-0 record, but are anything but dominant. Tampa Bay will be fine against weaker teams like the Vikings, the Bears and their divisional opponents. But once they run into teams that are as talented and versatile as the Eagles, they will struggle.
Tampa Bay’s defense had limited foes to 41 and 67 rushing yards, respectively. But Philly — with its imposing offensive line and talented and deep backfield — had topped the 100-yard rushing mark before the third quarter was halfway over. — Jones
Bucs’ offense finds rhythm too late
Mayfield threw his first interception of the season but didn’t let that mistake snowball. He and his offense struggled for much of the game but produced a few positives, like that fourth-quarter scoring drive where Mayfield looked crisp while directing a quick-hitter passing attack that fueled a nine-play, 75-yard scoring drive capped by a one-yard toss to Evans. The problem was, it was a little too late. The Bucs’ defense couldn’t provide the backing that the offense needed to keep them in the game until they finally found a rhythm. — Jones
Highlight of the game
Swifties will love this run.
— NFL (@NFL) September 26, 2023
Hurts’ 29th career rushing touchdown came in his 48th game, breaking a tie with Cam Newton for the most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in his first 50 games in NFL history.
Thanks in part to the Eagles recording a safety against the Bucs in the third quarter, Monday’s result marked the first 25-11 final score in NFL history, per NFLscorigami.com.

What are the differences between the xr13, xr14, and xl15i?
That pretty much seem the same as far as performance goes. I guess the XL series has a 12 year compressor warranty. Also, as far as extending the warranty to 10 years if a matched system is used, is it critical to install a Trane thermostat to get the extension? I have read that the Honeywell IAQ is better than the Trane branded equivalent.


The scale of the debt that Gordon Brown takes on to fight the economic crisis means that future governments will have to consider drastic measures to ease it, according to the National Institute for Economic and Social Research (NIESR).
The think tank said it would be all but impossible for the Government to return Britain's total public debt to 40 per cent of gross domestic product, currently equivalent to £600billion, until 2023.
The institute said the Government had three options to bring the balance sheet back to good health. The first was to raise the state pension age, from 60 for women and 65 for men, to 70 between 2013 and 2023.
Under existing plans, the state pension age is due to increase to 68 for both men and women between 2024 and 2046. The rise will generate additional tax revenues and reduce pension payment obligations.
The second option was to raise the basic rate of income tax by 15p in the pound. Taxes would have to rise by as much as 8p in the pound even if the retirement age was increased, NIESR said.
The final option was to cut government spending by a tenth, which would hit the NHS, education and other front-line services.
Ray Barrell, a senior research fellow at the institute, said one of these drastic measures would have to be taken to bring the burden of public debt back to internationally-acceptable levels.
"The choice is we have got to raise income tax a lot, cut spending a lot, or work longer. There is a stronger case for extending working lives because we're all living so much longer," he said.
The report came a day after shares rose sharply in London, and as the pound clawed back ground against the dollar and the euro. Many experts have said the worst of the economic crisis may soon be over.
George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, said the report "graphically illustrates the shocking scale of Gordon Brown's debt crisis"
He added: "The Prime Minister didn't fix the roof when the sun was shining and now we will all be paying the price for his mistakes for a generation.
"Gordon Brown thinks he can fool the British people by pushing all the difficult decisions until after the election and covering up the mess in the nation's finances with optimistic growth forecasts.
"Instead we need real spending restraint now and action to get to grips with our national debt once the recovery is under way."
Last month, the Institute for Fiscal Studies calculated that it could take until 2032 for
the country to pay debts incurred in the current crisis. The NIESR study is the first time a major institution has outlined how the debt could be repaid.
The Government plans to borrow £175?billion this year, the largest sum as a proportion of economic output since the Second World War.
According to last month's Budget, the Government will have to continue with sizeable deficits until at least 2018 because of the significant costs associated with the crisis. In addition, the cash will not prevent Britain's finances from enduring their worst year since 1931.
The NIESR predicted that the economy was likely to shrink by 4.3 per cent this year, much more sharply than the 3.5 per cent fall predicted by Alistair Darling, the Chancellor, in the Budget last month. Neither can any forecaster rule out the possibility that Britain faces a funding crisis in the coming years, when investors might refuse to buy government debt. Mr Barrell said any plans to raise the retirement age would have to wait until 2013, when rising unemployment should have passed, after which the Government could gradually increase the age to 70.
For each extra year worked, the budget deficit would be reduced by 1 per cent of gross domestic product, NIESR calculated.
The institute also said the Bank of England's attempt to stimulate the economy by spending billions of pounds of newly created money on government debt was misguided and would fail.
Martin Weale, the NIESR's director, said the focus of the policy, known as quantitative easing, should have been on buying private sector debt to help companies that were finding it difficult to gain access to finance.
"The policy of quantitative easing is completely misapplied," he said.
"It is likely to be much like the VAT reduction. It has had some impact but one won't be able to see any clear effect, and it therefore runs the risk of becoming a policy failure. The Bank should have been intervening in the private sector debt market."
The warning came on the first day of this month's meeting of the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC). Members will debate the level of British interest rates and its ongoing programme of quantitative easing.
On Thursday, the committee is widely expected to announce that rates will be left unchanged at the historically low level of 0.5 per cent.
The committee is also likely to reaffirm the Bank's commitment to £75?billion of spending by the end of June, predominantly on government debt.

Viewing art though traveling to galleries and museums can have impressive consequences on an individual’s temper, worry and properly-currently being. But does the very same maintain correct for viewing artwork in digital place? A new research by psychologists led by MacKenzie Trupp, and Matthew Pelowski investigated regardless of whether participating with artwork online also has this result. Their conclusion: a brief a few-moment check out to an on the net artwork or cultural exhibition also reveals major favourable effects on subjective perfectly-getting.
In the 1st wave of the Covid 19 pandemic, arts and cultural institutions immediately shifted from stationary structures to the Web. For the 1st time, electronic museums and on the internet artwork galleries turned the aim of community attention. This experienced two consequences: Initial, art and cultural objects could be accessed from the sofas of citizens all around the globe. Second, artwork had the opportunity to arrive at a substantially broader audience than just before.
Over the previous decade, students have conducted many exploration scientific studies demonstrating that artwork can have a good affect on overall health and properly-staying. On the other hand, it was not known no matter if these consequences could also be felt over the Online.
In a new review, MacKenzie Trupp, PhD, Matthew Pelowski of the Arts and Research on Transformation of Men and women and Culture investigation team, and their colleagues from the Division of Psychology and the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics questioned contributors to stop by art exhibitions accessible via smartphones, tablets, and computers. Before and right after the check out, psychological point out and nicely-getting have been measured to establish the extent to which viewing the artwork could be advantageous.
Outcomes showed that even extremely quick viewings can have major effects, leading to lessen damaging mood, stress and anxiety, and loneliness, as very well as bigger subjective very well-getting. These benefits had been comparable to other interventions such as nature ordeals and visits to actual physical art galleries. Upon more investigation, the particular subjective ordeals of individuals grew to become an essential factor to take into account. The investigation crew learned that the much more meaningful or attractive individuals uncovered the art to be and the far more beneficial emotions they experienced even though viewing it, the higher the reward.
These outcomes reveal that short on line artwork viewing can strengthen and assistance nicely-staying. In addition, this analyze emphasizes artwork interventions-a suggestion that can be carried out on-internet site or created distinct to specific viewers*. This opens new avenues for more research and applications in areas these as waiting rooms, hospitals, and rural parts wherever entry to artwork is minimal.

Public libraries in Spain
The changes that have been experienced by political and administrative systems in Spain during the last twenty years have had significant repercussions on the development of public libraries in the country. This article presents first of all the current state of legislation in this domain and the respective competencies of the various administrations concerned (the State, autonomous communities, municipalities). It then analyses the statistical data that illustrate this development. Finally, various examples of management of the public library network and the contributions of certain organisations to the development of these libraries are described.
