http://blogs.webmd.com/health-ehome/2011/02/are-mothballs-safe.html | WebMD Blogs From Our Archives Are Mothballs Safe ? By Janelle Sorensen February 22 , 2011 From the WebMD Archives A Baby โ s Death Prompts a Call for a Ban A few weeks ago , pediatricians in Australia called for a ban on a common ingredient in mothballs after it was linked to one baby โ s death and brain damage in two others . The primary ingredient of concern is naphthalene , which causes a breakdown of red blood cells in children with a genetic condition called G6PD deficiency . What are mothballs ? Mothballs are a pesticide product that contain either naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene as active ingredients . Both of these chemicals are toxic fumigants ( which means they volatilize into the air ) and must be present in high concentrations to be effective . This is the problem . Concentrations high enough to be effective for pest control can be dangerous for anyone exposed to them . Mothballs can seriously impair indoor air quality . In fact , the odor of mothballs can be detected at a few parts per billion in the air . ( One part per billion is about several drops of water in an Olympic - size swimming pool . ) What are the potential health impacts ? Symptoms of exposure to naphthalene include headache , nausea , dizziness , and difficulty breathing . Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may damage or destroy some of your red blood cells . This condition is called hemolytic anemia . Some symptoms of hemolytic anemia are fatigue , lack of appetite , restlessness , and pale skin . Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may also cause nausea , vomiting , diarrhea , blood in the urine , and a yellow color to the skin . Based on the results from animal studies , the Department of Health and Humans Paradichlorobenzene exposure has been linked to nausea , vomiting , dizziness , fatigue , headaches , eye and nasal passage irritation , and dermal irritation . If a pet eats a mothball made of paradichlorobenzene , they may have vomiting , tremors , and / or abdominal pain . Paradichlorobenzene may also cause kidney and liver damage in pets . The World Health Organization ( WHO ) considers paradichlorobenzene possibly carcinogenic to humans based on studies with mice . Safer Alternatives The most important point to remember about clothes moths is that soiled cloth is much more likely to become infested . Here are some tips from the Oregon State University Extension Services : While cedar chips or balls smell wonderful , they do nothing to repel clothes moths . The best way to protect your at - risk ( animal - fiber ) clothing from clothes moths is by keeping moths out . To protect these garments from clothes moths , first clean all of the clothing according to the manufacturer โ s specifications . Then place the clean clothing in airtight containers . For existing infestations of clothes moths , you must do more . Vacuum out drawers and closets using a HEPA vacuum cleaner . Vacuum all furniture and other places that provide food sources such as lint , pet hair , and human hair . Lint and hair that have been undisturbed for a long time are prime breeding grounds for clothes moths . After vacuuming , dispose of the vacuum bag promptly . To safely eliminate the moths , try a non - toxic clothes moth trap . These disposable traps use natural insect pheromones to lure moths inside , For stored clothing that is not kept in airtight containers , place the clothing in the dryer or in the sun once or twice a month to destroy larvae . Shake the clothes out or brush them before putting them back in the drawer or on the hanger . This will help dislodge remaining eggs and larvae . And , remember to warn family and other caregivers about the risks of mothballs . In the incidents in Australia , babies were wrapped in blankets that had been stored with mothballs . Grandma might think it would be sweet to wrap her new grandbaby in a family heirloom that โ s been in storage for decades โ but make sure it โ s properly cleaned first ! If you have questions about mothballs or any pesticide - related topic , please call National Pesticide Information Center at 1 - 800 - 858 - 7378 ( seven days per week , 6 : 30am - 4 : 30pm PST ) , or email at npic @ ace . orst . edu .

http://blogs.webmd.com/womens-health/2007/09/feel-pregnant-but-the-pregnancy-test-is-negative.html | WebMD Blogs Women ' s Health Feel Pregnant but the Pregnancy Test is Negative ? By Jane Harrison - Hohner , RN , RNP September 20 , 2007 From the WebMD Archives I frequently see posts on my message board which state , โ My pregnancy test is negative , but I feel pregnant โ or โ What about common symptoms of pregnancy ; if I โ m not pregnant what could be causing them ? โ Let โ s look at some of the most common signs of pregnancy : Nausea and vomiting . Generally speaking the nausea and vomiting of pregnancy are presumed to start about four weeks from conception . Some other causes of nausea and vomiting are viral , or bacterial , infections in the bowel . Appendicitis , or problems with the gall bladder or pancreas , can provoke nausea . Neurologic conditions such as migraine headaches or increased intracranial pressure can induce nausea . Even severe emotional or physical stressors can make one queasy . Less common are the psychiatric causes including anorexia , bulimia , and anxiety disorders . Breast tenderness / sensitivity . Bilateral breast tenderness can be a very early sign of pregnancy , appearing as early as two weeks after conception . This is thought to be related to increasing levels of hormones such as estrogen . In a month without an ovulation , not only can a menstrual period be missed , but there can be breast tenderness as well . This is similar to the increased breast tenderness experienced by some women when first taking postmenopausal hormone therapy . There are many other causes of breast pain ( e.g. , infections , herpes zoster ) but most often these Enlarging abdomen . It is not until the second trimester that most women can begin to feel an enlarging uterus by pressing on the abdomen . Sometimes a large fibroid can feel and look like a pregnancy , but this is not very common . Overall abdominal distension can arise from fluid shifts in the bowel ( cause of premenstrual bloating ) , air in the bowel , or food intolerances ( lactose , gluten , etc ) . Much more remotely , fluid in the abdominal cavity ( โ ascites โ ) can be a product of ovarian cancer or liver disease Fatigue . While many women complain of fatigue in their premenstrual week , early pregnancy can produce profound tiredness . Fatigue in the first trimester has been attributed to the rapid rise in progesterone . One of the metabolites of natural progesterone uses the same brain binding sites as the โ Valium - type โ drugs . Fatigue is also one of the most common symptoms for a myriad of medical conditions as well . Infections , anemia , electrolyte imbalances , low thyroid , diabetes , MS , cortisol abnormalities , cancer , depression , stress , and a variety of Is your pregnancy test giving you a โ false negative โ result when you are in fact very early pregnant ? In this instance the false negative can arise from three problems . First of all check the box to be sure that the product has not expired or shows visible signs of damage . Second , check to see if the sensitivity of the test purchased is 20 international units of pregnancy hormone ( HCG ) . If it is more than that , it could be less sensitive to low levels of HCG . In this instance you might wish to wait until at least a week after the missed period so that HCG levels are high enough to trigger a โ true positive โ . Third , and the least common problem , would be a missed miscarriage . If there was an early pregnancy , which was then lost but has not yet produced bleeding , the pregnancy test would return as โ not pregnant โ . This is a difficult diagnosis to make . The most conclusive way to confirm a miscarriage is to have sequential blood pregnancy tests which show dropping HCG levels in amount which may be too low for a standard urine test to detect . To summarize , there are many conditions which can produce โ pregnancy symptoms โ . If one continues to have such symptoms despite a negative pregnancy test , it is best to see your GYN or clinic and get some additional testing . WebMD Blog ยฉ 2007 WebMD , Inc .

Tapering Talk The Impact of Expectations of Reduced Federal Reserve Security Purchases on Emerging Markets Submitted by Poonam Gupta On Mon 12162013 coauthors Barry Eichengreen 2 Comments In May 2013 officials of the Federal Reserve System first began to talk of the possibility of the US central bank tapering its securities purchases of it gradually reducing them from the prevailing 85 billion monthly rate to something lower presumably as a prelude to phasing them out entirely A milestone to which many observers point is May 22 2013 when Chairman Bernanke raised the possibility of tapering in his testimony to the Congress This tapering talk had a sharp negative impact on economic and financial conditions in emerging markets Three aspects of that impact are noteworthy First not only was the impact sharp but in the view of many commentators it was surprisingly large The most alarmed some would say alarmist commentators raised the possibility that some emerging countries might be heading towards a full blown crisis like those in Mexico in 1994 and Asia in 1998 Second the impact was not felt uniformly different countries were affected rather differently And third there were complaints from policy makers in the developing world about the Feds turn to tapering that were seemingly hard to square with earlier criticisms of quantitative In a new paper we attempt to shed light on these issues We use data for a cross section of emerging markets to analyze who was hit by the Feds tapering talk and why We focus on the change in exchange rates foreign reserves and equity prices between April 2013 just prior to talk of tapering and August 2013 by which time the response was largely complete In September new data on the condition of the US economy led Federal Reserve officials to make statements that moderated prior expectations of tapering We relate the reaction of these variables to several classes of potential determinants a observable macroeconomic fundamentals like the budget deficit public debt foreign reserves and GDP growth rate in the prior period b the size and openness of a countrys financial markets and c the extent to which capitalflowsensitive indicators like the real exchange rate and current account balance had been allowed to move in the prior period when quantitative easing was underway there had been no expectations of tapering and policy makers in emerging markets had complained of currency wars On the basis of this analysis our answers to the questions posed above are as follows First there is little evidence that countries with stronger macroeconomic fundamentals smaller budget deficits lower debts more reserves and stronger growth rates in the immediately prior period were rewarded with smaller falls in exchange rates foreign reserves and stock prices starting in May What mattered more was the size of their financial markets 1 Investors seeking to rebalance their portfolios concentrated on emerging markets with relatively large and liquid financial systems these were the markets where they could most easily sell without incurring losses and where there was the most scope for portfolio rebalancing The obvious contrast is with socalled frontier markets with smaller and less liquid financial systems This is a reminder that success at growing the financial sector can be a mixed blessing Among other things it can accentuate the impact on an economy of financial shocks emanating from outside In addition we find that the largest impact of tapering was felt by countries that allowed exchange rates to run up most dramatically in the earlier period of expectations of continued ease on the part of the Federal Reserve when large amounts of capital were flowing into emerging markets Similarly we find the largest impact in countries that allowed the current account deficit to widen most dramatically in the earlier period when it was easily financed Countries that used policy and in some cases perhaps enjoyed good luck that allowed them to limit the rise in the real exchange rate We interpret these real exchange rate and current account measures as picking up the impact positive negative or neutral of macroprudential policy broadly defined Recall that we control for the stance of fiscal policy since fiscal tightening can also limit the appreciation of asset prices in a period when capital is flowing in In addition we control for the intensity of capital controls in the prior period these similarly do not appear to have exerted a consistently significant impact on the effects of tapering Nor does their inclusion alter the estimated effect of the change in the real exchange rate Figure 1 Effect on Exchange Rate during AprilJuly 2013 Factors that Mattered Figure 2 Effect on Exchange Rate during AprilJuly 2013 Factors that did not Matter 1 Financial market size is measured by total external private financingie inflows of equity bonds and loans these are data for 20102012 from the Global Financial Stability Report of the IMF transformed into logs Alternatively we measure financial market size as the portfolio liability stock from Lane and Milesi Ferretti 2012 as stock market capitalization and as aggregate GDP reassuringly use of these alternatives had little material impact on the results since most of the alternative measures are fairly highly correlated Comments A

http://blogs.worldbank.org/ppps/forecasting-infrastructure-investment-needs-50-countries-7-sectors-through-2040 | Forecasting infrastructure investment needs for 50 countries 7 sectors through 2040 Submitted by Chris Heathcote On Thu 08102017 12 Comments The Global Infrastructure Outlook is a landmark countrybased online tool and report developed by the Global Infrastructure Hub with Oxford Economics which forecasts infrastructure investment needs across 50 countries and seven sectors to 2040 Although there are already forecasts for infrastructure investment in the market the public and private sectors indicated their need for fresh countrylevel data Outlook was created to meet that knowledge gap For the first time we have data about what each country needs to spend in each sector and importantly the gap between what needs to be spent and current spending trends What do the results show By 2040 the global population will grow by almost 2 billion people a 25 increase Rural to urban migration will continue with the urban population growing by 46 triggering massive demand for infrastructure support Outlook forecasts that global infrastructure investment needs to reach 94 trillion by 2040 to keep pace with profound economic and demographic changes across the globe Add the UN Sustainable Development Goals SDGs of universal provision of clean water sanitation and electricity and the total cost rises to 97 trillion The analysis reveals a shortfall in needed spending of 18 trillion 19 of the forecast need Closing the gap and meeting the SDGs will require spending as a proportion of global GDP to grow from the current level of 3 to 37 Beyond these global figures are the country and sector specific stories that represent the real challenge of finding and funding infrastructure projects that enhance peoples lives Key findings 1 Over half of global infrastructure investment needs are in Asia Three of the five countries with the greatest infrastructure need are in Asia China India and Japan with those countries comprising 39 of global infrastructure investment needs China alone is expected to need 28 trillion in infrastructure investment which is more than half of Asias total needs and 30 of global needs 2 The United States has the largest investment gap forecast to be 38 trillion The United States is forecast to have the largest infrastructure investment gap the difference between investment needs and current trends in investment of 38 trillion double the next largest of China at 19 trillion followed by Brazil at 11 trillion and Russia at 07 trillion 3 On current trends in investment the world will fall short of meeting the SDGs by 2030 Outlook looked specifically at the goals to ensure universal access to clean water and sanitation and electricity supply SDGs 71 61 and 62 What it found is concerning and should be a global wake up call Our analysis shows to meet these goals would cost 58 trillion from now until 2030 We estimate that 35 trillion of this figure more than 50 will not be met by 2030 4 The majority of global infrastructure investment gap is in the road and electricity sectors Outlook estimates an 8 trillion infrastructure investment gap in roads which represents more than half of the total global infrastructure investment gap Although the electricity sector represents the second largest infrastructure investment gap at 29 trillion the majority of that gap is in developing and emerging countries Innovative methodology Outlook involved over a years work applying around 50 datasets and a unique approach to forecasting infrastructure investment needs We applied a detailed topdown statistical approach which used seven bespoke econometric models to produce 350 forecasts covering each of the 50 countries and seven sectors These forecasts take into account past spending countries specific economic and demographic characteristics and the current quality of infrastructure Outlook is accessed via and through our online tool where data can be customized and downloaded httpoutlookgihuborg We anticipate that Outlook will become a useful source of data and guidance to governments seeking to reform and improve their infrastructure markets It will complement our other tools InfraCompass a tool identifying the key drivers of successful planning and

People Who Make What I Do By Sudeep Reddy Sep 13 , 2013 11 : 02 am ET Who is a middle - income American ? For much of the nation , the answer is simple : it โ s me , and perhaps people who earn less than I do . The latest Wall Street Journal / NBC News poll , released Friday , showed the overwhelming majority of the public โ 90 % โ defining a โ middle - income household โ as families with total income at or below $ 100,000 . Americans have a strong inclination to consider people in their own income brackets to be middle - income . Among households earning $ 40,000 to $ 50,000 , 48 % put the middle - income marker at $ 50,000 and 9 % said it โ s below that . Half of all households earning $ 50,000 to $ 75,000 said their income bracket counted as middle - income ; a third of those households earning $ 50,000 to $ 75,000 put the middle - income marker below them . Among households earning $ 75,000 to $ 100,000 a year , 39 % said being middle - income means earning within their own income bracket . More than half of that group put the marker below their own incomes . To Read the Full Story Subscribe Sign In | [

http://blood-pressure.emedtv.com/hydrochlorothiazide/what-is-hydrochlorothiazide-used-for-p2.html | What Is Hydrochlorothiazide Used For ? Hydrochlorothiazide for Water Retention One common cause of water retention is congestive heart failure ( CHF ) . Congestive heart failure is a condition where the heart can not pump enough blood throughout the body . It does not mean that your heart has stopped or is about to stop working . It means that your heart is not able to pump blood the way that it should . This can lead to symptoms of CHF that include : shortness of breath ; swelling of the feet , ankles , or lower legs ; and rapid weight gain ( see Symptoms of Congestive Heart Failure for more information ) There are many other causes for fluid retention , including kidney failure ( renal failure ) , cirrhosis , estrogens , and corticosteroids . Hydrochlorothiazide can help with water retention by helping the body get rid of the extra fluid . Hydrochlorothiazide is approved to treat water retention ( edema ) when used along with other medications , including other congestive heart failure medications . Hydrochlorothiazide does not cure congestive heart failure or other conditions that cause the body to retain fluid . How Does Hydrochlorothiazide Work ? Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic , which is commonly referred to as a " water pill . " It works by increasing the amount of salt and water that the kidneys remove from the blood . This extra salt and water is passed out through the urine . By increasing the amount of water removed from the blood , hydrochlorothiazide causes a decrease in blood volume , which can lower blood pressure . By removing extra water from the body , hydrochlorothiazide also helps decrease swelling and water retention . Is Hydrochlorothiazide Used in Children ? Hydrochlorothiazide may be used in children and infants with high blood pressure or fluid retention , although it has not been thoroughly studied for this age group . Be sure to talk to your healthcare provider about the benefits and risks of using hydrochlorothiazide in children and infants . | [

http://blood.ygoy.com/2010/07/08/blood-clot-in-urine-causes-symptoms-and-treatment/ | Blood Clot in Urine : Causes , Symptoms and Treatment Blood clot in urine is a very serious issue and is an indicator of several health conditions . Haematuria or Hematuria is the medical term used for the presence of blood in the urine . Hematuria is categorized as strong > Microscopic and Macroscopic depending on whether the amount of blood in urine that can be seen with the naked eyes . If color of the urine changes to pink , brown or red and if the blood clots can be seen in the urine then it is known as the Macroscopic Hematuria . Macroscopic hematuria is also known as the Gross hematuria . In Microscopic hematuria , negligible amount of blood can be seen in the urine and this will not cause any change in urine color . Only a microscope can detect the blood cells in the urine Causes of Blood Clot in Urine Problems in urinal tract and kidney diseases are the most common causes of blood clot in urine . Stones in kidneys or the urinary bladder and the infections can cause hematuria . Hematuria can be caused due to an injury in the urinary tract . Another common disease that causes hematuria is known as the Benign familial hematuria or the basement membrane disease . This is caused due to the thinning of the basement membrane of the Glomeruli which is present in the kidney . The other causes of the blood clot in the blood can be due to inflammation of the urethra , prostate gland enlargement , nephritic syndrome , renal vein thrombosis , kidney tumor , bladder tumor , bladder cancer , obstruction in the urinary tract , polycystic kidney disease and blood disorders like hemophilia . Red color in urine is not always caused due to the presence of blood . It may be caused due to the changes in the food we take like the beets , berries and due to some medications also . Symptoms of Blood Clots The common symptoms of the hematuria are the presence of small clots in the urine . This may cause the urine to change in to pink , orange or red in color and these may be the only symptoms of the clots in the urine in most of the cases . Pain in the lower abdomen , frequent urge to urinate and the pain during urination are the other symptoms of blood clot in the urine . Treatment To determine the exact cause for the blood clots several diagnostic tests have to be conducted . These tests include blood tests , urine culture , ultrasound of the abdomen or the renal tract , CT scan , urinalysis and X - ray . Bladder cancer can be known by performing biopsy tests . Antibiotics can be usually referred by the physician for treating the blood clots in the urine .

http://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Stats | Stats - Bloodborne 243 74 Character Information Updated : 10 Feb 2019 06 : 23 Stats are player attributes in Bloodborne . When you level up in Bloodborne you increase an attribute by one point . Attributes like Strength and Skill are represented by numerical values and determine what armor and weapons can be equipped , while attributes like Arcane and Bloodtinge govern how much damage certain Weapons or Items do . Attributes also give your characters increased stats , e.g. Vitality increases your hit points and Endurance improves your Stamina . See Status Effects for information about debuffs and their effects on various stats . See Stat Calculators for leveling calculators . You must Channel Blood Echoes at the Plain Doll to level up . Primary Stats Level Your character ' s current level , as determined by your expenditure of attribute points . Level also affects the amount of physical defense you have , see Defense Increase per Level Blood Echoes Blood Echoes are the main currency in Bloodborne Echoes are obtained by killing enemies , consuming Coldblood , or selling items . They can be consumed in Hunter โ s Dream and Chalice Dungeons to purchase items from the Messengers or to level up by talking to the Plain Doll Upon death in one ' s own world , all echoes will be lost and left on the ground where the player perished . One can then retrieve these echoes by returning to that location and either picking them up or slaying a nearby enemy who has stolen the echoes . Echoes will not be lost when one dies as a summon . Insight Insight is a minor currency that represents the depth of one ' s inhuman knowledge . Insight is obtained by encountering and slaying bosses , discovering certain areas , speaking to certain NPCs , or consuming Madman ' s Knowledge Great One ' s Wisdom Blood Dregs , or One Third of Umbilical Cord Insight is consumed by ringing the beckoning bell to call for help from other players ( consumes 1 Insight each time the bell is rung ) and purchasing items from the Messengers . Note that the Insight Messengers are only available when one is currently holding 1 or more Insight . Insight also triggers certain events in the game . For instance , Lesser Amygdalas around the world will become visible after one obtains more than 40 Insight . Holding more Insight increases the character ' s susceptibility to Frenzy and reduces the Beasthood stat . At 15 Insight or higher , the game spawns additional enemies and certain enemies receive a buff . Insight is not lost upon death , but can be stolen by Brainsuckers Vitality The Vitality stat governs HP ( hit points ) . Once you reach 30 in Vitality you will start to see diminishing returns , after 50 ( the soft cap ) you will see a more severe drop - off all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap . ) Endurance The Endurance stat governs stamina and resistances . Once you reach 40 ( soft cap ) in Endurance you gain almost no benefit for each further point invested , although you still gain an increase in resistances all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap ) . There is no encumbrance system in Bloodborne . At 40 Endurance you will have 160 Stamina . Any investment above 40 Endurance will not yield any more stamina . Strength The Strength stat governs heavy physical weapon ATK as well as increasing visceral damage . Determines whether or not you can use certain weapons . Strength increases trick weapon damage . Strength based weapons receive more benefit from each invested strength point than other weapons . Once you reach 25 in Strength you will start to see diminishing returns , after 50 ( the soft cap ) you will see a more severe drop - off all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap ) . Increases Physical Defense Skill The Skill stat governs more nuanced physical weapon ATK and increases your visceral damage . It also Determines whether or not you can use certain weapons . Skill increases trick weapon damage . Skill based weapons receive more benefit from each invested skill point than other weapons . Once you reach 25 in Skill you will start to see diminishing returns , after 50 ( the soft cap ) you will see a more severe drop - off all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap ) . Visceral attack damage increases significantly with Skill above 18 with steep diminishing returns after 50 . Increase Physical Defense Bloodtinge The Bloodtinge stat governs power of weapons that deal Blood damage ( like most firearms and the Chikage Bloodletter and Simon ' s Bowblade ) . It determines whether or not you can use certain weapons . Once you reach 25 in Bloodtinge you will start to see diminishing returns , after 50 ( the soft cap ) you will see a more severe drop - off all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap . ) Arcane The Arcane stat governs power of Arcane ATK . Determines whether or not you can use certain weapons . Also increases Discovery Rates . Once you reach 25 in Arcane you will start to see diminishing returns , after 50 ( the soft cap ) you will see a more severe drop - off all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap . ) Despite all trick weapons have an arcane scaling , investing in arcane does nothing to increase these weapons ' physical damages . Instead this value project how high its elemental damage would be if it was infused with elemental Blood Gems . The increase to discovery will cap out at 50 arcane with 209 discovery . Increasing arcane more only affects elemental damage scaling . Secondary Stats HP HP is the amount of damage you can take before you die . Stamina Stamina governs the amount you can attack and dodge before having to wait for it to refill . Discovery The rate at which items will drop from enemies . The higher the number the more frequently they will drop . Defensive Stats Physical DEF Defense against physical ( non - magical ) attacks ( increased only by gaining levels ) . Slow Poison RES Resistance to poison attacks . Slow poison slowly drains your HP . Rapid Poison RES Resistance to rapid poison attacks . The higher this attribute , the more resistant you are . Frenzy RES Resistance to the lure of frenzy . The higher this attribute , the more resistant you are . Frenzy carves out roughly 70 to 80 % of your max HP . Beasthood The higher this attribute , the closer you are to beasthood when temporary transformed . ( Note : raising the meter will not transform your character into a beast . However , the Beast Claw ' s transformed state does give you beast arms , and the Beast ' s Embrace rune transforms your character ' s appearance and makes them weaker to Fire and vs . Beast damage , with the benefit of stronger beasthood and an improved move - set for the Beast Claw ) . Damage Reduction Physical Reduction of physical damage . VS . Blunt Reduction of damage from blunt attacks . VS . Thrust Reduction of damage from thrust attacks . Blood Reduction of damage from firearms and other blood attacks . Arcane Reduction of damage from Arcane attacks . Fire Reduction of damage from Fire attacks . Bolt Reduction of damage from bolt attacks . Offensive Stats Physical ATK Determines the damage of your trick weapon ( normal physical damage ) . The physical damage a weapon deals is determined by the weapon itself ( its type , upgrade level and installed blood gems ) as well as your character stats . By investing points into the strength and skill stats , your weapons will do more damage , the exact amount of which depends on the weapon . Note that despite all weapons displaying an arcane scaling , increasing arcane will have no effect on the weapon ' s damage unless they do physical and arcane damage ( burial blade blade of mercy logarious ' wheel ) or physical and bolt damage ( Tonitrus ) . Furthermore , each weapon ' s bonus physical attack rating consists of a main bonus damage ( + x right after the physical attack rating ) as well as a blunt rating and thrust rating ( seen underneath the physical ATK stat in the weapon screen ) . These ratings are increased along with the main bonus damage , but there are also specialized blunt / thrust blood gems which increase the blunt / thrust rating only . The blunt / thrust ratings work by replacing the main bonus damage stat when a blunt or thrust attack is executed . Blood ATK Determines the damage of your firearm and weapons that deal Blood damage like the Chikage , the Bloodletter and Simon ' s Bowblade The blood damage a firearm deals is determined by the weapon itself ( its type , upgrade level and installed blood gem ) as well as the bloodtinge stat ( the higher the more damage ) . Blood damage is a different damage type that corresponds to blood defense rather than physical defense . Note that blood ATK is not to be confused with status effects such as rapid poisoning , which is similar to bleed in previous Dark Souls games . Also note that 3 left hand weapons : flamesprayer , ( hunter ' s ) torch , and rosmarinus do not deal blood damage . Arcane ATK This stat determines your arcane damage . Fire ATK This stat determines your fire damage . Bolt ATK This stat determines your bolt / lightning damage . QS Bullet Use Qucksilver bullets are used for guns , cannon and arcane magic items Durability This determines how much damage your weapon can take before breaking ( weapon does not disapear when broken ) Special Attack Slow Poison ATK Determines the Slow poison stackup . This is the poison which stacks up to become a damage over time as we know . Rapid Poison ATK Determines the rapid poison stackup . This works not as a " poison " and does not give the target a damage over time . ( It works like Bleed in Dark Souls 1 & 2 ) VS . Kin This determines the damage you do to Kin enemies . VS . Beasts This determines the damage you do to severely transformed Beasts In - game Stat Screen Join the page discussion Tired of anon posting ? Register !

Kinda like there is soft caps and hard caps in DS Trilogy , I ' m just wondering because I ' m doing like a Warrior and Pyromancer build in DS Trilogy with magic because most bosses are immune to fire in DS Trilogy . So if anybody can help me out here started the game again after taking a break from DS Trilogy if there is Soft caps would be greatful and thank you . I am a rookie at bloodborne so just curious I know triangle 1 23 Oct 2018 00 : 40 Why was beasthood listed as a defensive stat by the game developers ? 2 6 Piece - kun 06 Oct 2018 17 : 51 Charged blunt attacks ignore defence . 14 Jul 2018 08 : 16 So thrust damage seems to improve when used as a punishment after an enemy โ s attack or attempt to dodge , just like in Dark Souls , but does blunt have any sort of technical advantage like that ? Does it perhaps help to break poise , break limbs , or deal extra damage to โ open enemies ? โ Or is it simply a more specialized form of physical attack ? 1 3 06 Jul 2018 17 : 19 so have a lower insight is better for dealing more dmg ? 3 12 09 Dec 2017 05 : 00 Would it be wrong to think that I can make the game easier by levelling up ? I ' m thinking that enemies might scale up with player level , so is there a " sweet spot " where someone should stop levelling ? 4 37 6 14 Aug 2017 16 : 37 Maybe the hard cap in the past has been referred to as the point at which a stat can not be increased any further , but is n ' t it a little redundant to identify it , given it will ALWAYS be 99 ? 8 17 14 Jul 2017 17 : 47 So does Physical Defense just cover all dmg that is n ' t Blunt or Thrust ? If an enemy is attacking with Blunt attacks would it be smarter to maximise Blunt defense over Physical ? 9 02 Jul 2017 06 : 03 Soft cap - when diminishing returns increase ( e.g. Skill drops off at 25 and at 50 , making those the soft caps ) ; Hard cap - when a stat can not go any further ( e.g. Skill can not be increased past 99 whatsoever ) 5 26 Apr 2017 20 : 31 so to round things all out , bring everything to 25 , then vitality to 30 , endurance to 40 , after that bring strength and skill to 50 ( 50 is visceral attack ' s soft cap and strength / skill ' s moderate cap ) , witch leaves you with the obvious decision between blood tinge and arcane , personally id say * * * * * blood and go all the way on arcane for the tools , since they scale like mc donald ' s fries on sauce all the way to 99 ( hard cap ) , the order of things is to change according to you ' re weapon / tool prefrences . 27 7 19 Apr 2017 07 : 48 I think that the problem with people here is that they ' re using the terms wrong , and keep defining them in the same way . New words need to be used . Soft cap : The point at which you do n ' t go up as much in a stat as before . Example : If you went up 5 - 6 points , and suddenly are going up only 1 - 3 , you have hit the soft cap . Hard cap : When you can no longer move that stat forward , regardless of how much it visibly affects your stats . 50 is not the hard cap , because you can go to 51 . 99 is the hard cap , because you can not go to 100 . 17 01 Feb 2017 12 : 10 10 - 25 highest gain , 26 - 50 moderate down to low gain , 51 - 99 no gain , but some pain relizeing it : x 23 Jan 2017 04 : 36 Strength / skill 25 is the soft cap , 50 is the hard cap fool 8 36 25 Dec 2016 11 : 02 Is there a cap to your physical defensw I just reached ng++ and for the past 40 levels my phy defense did not go up Im lvl 221 4 06 Dec 2016 06 : 11 say if i got a wrong build . can i allocate my attribute like dark souls 2 and 3 ? if yes . where can i do that ? 47 01 Dec 2016 04 : 44 Does Skill affect the speed of which you use Offensive Hunter Tools ? Like Dexterity affected Offensive Spellcasting Speed in Dark Souls 1 and 3 ? 14 11 Nov 2016 05 : 08 The hard cap is not 99 - _ - hard cap would be the max amount of points before it has deminished results i.e. , vitality - 30soft 50hard 33 New game plus 19 Aug 2016 04 : 11 As we all now the stats have hard and soft caps and I would say someone would reach the hard cap of all stats at around new game plus 3 . So how would a player get stronger through leveling when every level does almost nothing , or is it one of those circumstances in which you have to keep leveling even more even if it does it does almost nothing . 9 maxed stats 01 Aug 2016 02 : 47 So I ' m level 150 something and I ' ve pretty much hard capped vitality and endurance and have skill at 56 ( i use blades of mercy and burial blade ) but was wondering can I start to put points into strength so I can try some other weapons without affecting the scaling of my skill weapons . Hope that makes sense and thanks in advance . 23 Soft Cap ? 05 Jul 2016 14 : 51 Can anyone explain to me what SoftCap means . I realize hardcap means you can no longer place points into that stat , or that it simply gives no benefit . I am assuming softcap means you get less of an effect when placing points into that stat . I guess what I would really like to know is whats the difference . I am leveling arcane right now and I am about to hit 25 points , how significant is the drop is effectiveness compared to before ? Power up next to item box ? 05 Jul 2016 14 : 51 Theres this bright blue box next to my items quick select box . Theres a skeleton chest with a up sign on it and i can no figure out what it mean . Any help 12 ZOMBIEHEADZoCOM Stat Hardcaps for Levelling : The softcap for Vitality is 30 and the hardcap is 50 ( leveling past 50 has diminshed returns ) Endurance cap is 40 ( leveling past 40 does not add significant gains ) * there is NO equipment burden in BloodborneStrength ( scales your Strength based weapons ) softcaps at 25 , hardcaps at 50Skill ( scales your Skill based weapons ) sofcaps at 25 , hardcaps at 50Bloodtinge softcaps at 25 , hardcap is 50Arcane softcaps at 25 , hardcap at 50 5 So what the real diffrents between soft and hard lvl cap What does this mean sorry for a stupid question ? " Strength ( scales your Strength based weapons ) . Once you reach 25 in Strength you will start to see diminishing returns , after 50 ( the soft cap ) you will see a more severe drop - off all the way up to 99 ( the hard cap ) " So is it pointless in to lvl up after 50 ? or is it saying my stats will greatly increase after lvl 50 ?

http://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3223873/10-top-cabin-in-the-woods-movies/ | Editorials 10 Top โ Cabin In The Woods โ Movies ! ! ! Published 6 years ago on March 18 , 2013 By EvanDickson Evil Dead Month marches on here at Bloody - Disgusting ! One of the most important aspects of the Evil Dead films ( sans Army Of Darkness of course ) , is the cabin they take place in . Having seen the new remake , I can verify that the aesthetic and layout are more or less the same as they were in the first two films of the original trilogy . Of course , while they may be the pinnacle of the โ Cabin In The Woods โ subgenre โ there โ s a sh * t ton more where that came from ! These kind of films are among my favorite in horror , I love a good rural setting . So I โ m almost jealous that The Wolfman ( @ TheWolfmanCometh โ on the boards ) got the idea for this list โ which he wrote โ first ! There always seems to be an understadable amount of confusion whenever I post a story from โ The Wolfman . โ It โ s NOT ME you should be praising ( or bashing ) in the comments , IT โ S HIM ! So head inside for The Wolfman โ s 10 Top โ Cabin In The Woods โ Movies ! ! ! 10 : ANTICHRIST Definitely not your traditional horror film , and even as far as ANY genre of film go , Lars von Trier โ s Antichrist is far from traditional . While trying to cope with the death of their small child , a couple goes on vacation to a cabin in the woods . While there , the question is posed to both them , and more importantly , to the audience , is whether the world is a good place where sometimes terrible things happen or is the world a terrible place and sometimes good things happen ? Through visuals like stillborn deer fetuses to foxes eviscerating themselves , von Trier โ s Antichrist is hard to watch , but it is a film that takes a more existential approach to the idea of people versus nature , as opposed to just a couple people in a cabin trying to not to die . 9 : THE HILLS HAVE EYES ( 2006 ) Yup , that โ s right , I like Alexandre Aja โ s remake of Wes Craven โ s The Hills Have Eyes more than the original . Even though the remake might have less of a social message behind it , it โ s a much more graphic representation of โ us vs . them โ . Granted , there โ s not a cabin in this movie , but rather a family staying in an RV โ and instead of the woods it โ s the desert . But I still feel like there โ s a lot of elements of isolation and the general fearing of unknown attackers made popular in most โ cabin in the woods โ horror films 8 : TUCKER AND DALE VS . EVIL As a kid , I remember reading a book that told the story of the โ Three Little Pigs โ through the wolf โ s perspective . He was just a guy trying to borrow some sugar and these little pigs started acting like jerks . Tucker & Dale vs . Evil takes the familiar plot of backwoods hillbillies murdering college kids and tells the story from the perspective of these hillbillies just trying to set up their vacation home and all these college kids keep accidentally dying all around them . Even though it โ s more of a parody of the genre than an actual โ horror โ film , this is a comedy MADE for horror fans who will recognize all the situations that these hillbillies find themselves in . It also has enough comedic gore to satiate any horror fan โ s bloodthirst . 7 : I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE Although only a fraction of the atrocities that our lead character goes through take place in a cabin , this film still represents the idea of trying to go on a relaxing vacation and having things go incredibly , terribly wrong . When Sarah ( Camille Keaton ) rents a secluded , lakeside cabin she encounters a group of local thugs who violently rape her multiple times . This turn of events leaves her so damaged psychologically that she turns the table and plans the violent torture and murder of her attackers . Considering most films involving cabins are people 6 : THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT I โ m sure some would argue this is โ tent โ horror more than โ cabin โ horror , but there โ s no need to be so literal ! We โ re all friends here , right ? RIGHT ? Anyways , a big theme in cabin horror films are being isolated in the wilderness , trying to fight back the unknown . Well , I โ d say that possibly being stalked by a witch counts as the unknown , right ? And think about how much more vulnerable a tent is than a cabin ! All 5 : DEAD SNOW Most cabin horror films take place in some secluded forest , but what happens if you turn that forest into snow ? Well , a forest AND snow . What I โ m saying is that it โ s freezing in Norway so imagine how cranky the characters on Easter vacation must have been in their cabin ? I suppose that people typically group this in with other zombie movies , but I definitely think it earns a spot amongst all other โ trapped in isolation against something trying to kill you โ films . In fact , one of Evil Dead II . Sorry guys , this one totally counts . 4 : CABIN FEVER Considering how big writer / director Eli Roth โ s reputation is in contemporary horror circles , both positive and negative , it โ s crazy to me that he โ s only directed 4 feature - length films . Of course he โ s been involved in plenty of other horror projects in various capacities , but none of those opportunities would โ ve presented themselves if it were n โ t for Cabin Fever . I remember knowing nothing about the film , but I saw Peter Jackson talk about loving it so I randomly checked it out . What followed was a hilarious and incredibly gory parody of many different horror movie themes . The dialogue is ridiculously immature and the characters are such exaggerations that they feel like cartoons , but Roth still managed to gross you out with the virus they โ re all trying to avoid that causes your skin and flesh to melt off of you . Also , I โ d argue that the leg shaving scene with 3 : FRIDAY THE 13TH / THE BURNING / SLEEPAWAY CAMP One of the most common reasons for characters to find themselves in a cabin in the woods in horror films is the excuse of a summer camp . If it was n โ t for vacations or summer camps , would there really be ANY people going to the woods ? Sorry to make you guys look at three different movie titles , but I really ca n โ t pick which one of these films is my favorite summer camp horror , and I know that if I picked any one of the three , people would be upset 2 : THE CABIN IN THE WOODS If Cabin Fever is a parody of a cabin horror film , then The Cabin in the Woods is a film ABOUT a parody of a cabin horror film , where the characters REALIZE they โ re in a parody of โ wait , this is getting confusing . Not only does this movie have every stereotypical character and villain you โ d come to expect in a cabin horror film , let alone EVERY horror film , but The Cabin in the Woods even ACKNOWLEDGES that its main characters are intentionally archetypes . I do n โ t want to give too much away for anyone who has n โ t seen the movie yet ( which is probably like , 3 people ) , but Cabin holds a mirror up to not just every common horror movie theme , but also makes the viewer confront why they get so much enjoyment out of horror films . 1 : EVIL DEAD 2 I remember first hearing about Evil Dead and being told about a character whose hand gets infected with evil so he chops off his hand and replaces it with a chainsaw . SOLD ! I ran to the video store and rented the . When it was over , I could n โ t help but think , โ Hey , where โ s the chainsaw ? ! โ Even though is really good , I โ ve always thought that Evil Dead 2 goes that extra step to become great . I think you can tell a lot about a person when they tell you which is their favorite film in the series . If they say it โ s Army of Darkness , then it โ s the comedy they prefer . If they say , then they prefer more traditional scariness of the original film . And if someone says Evil Dead 2 is their favorite , then I know that โ s someone I want to hang out with because it means they equally respect the comedic and horrific elements of being stuck in the woods with a faceless โ evil โ lurking around every corner . Also , it โ s the moments where our lead character Ash is alone in the cabin that Bruce Campbell โ s talent shines through , solidifying himself as an incredibly talented physical comedian and Evil Dead II as the best horror movie featuring a cabin in the woods . Hail to the King , baby . * Editor โ s note : There actually is a cabin at the end of Blair Witch , so technically he โ s right anyway . | [

http://bloons.wikia.com/wiki/Banana_Republic | in : Upgrades Path 1 Upgrades Banana Farm and 8 more Banana Republic Edit Share Banana Republic Upgraded from Banana Plantation Upgrade # 3 on path 1 Price BTD4 : $ 2125 ( Easy ) , $ 2500 ( Medium ) , $ 2700 ( Hard BTD5 : $ 2720 ( Easy ) , $ 3200 ( Medium ) , $ 3455 ( Hard ) , $ 3840 ( Impoppable ) Price With Previous Upgrades BTD4 : $ 4335 ( Easy ) , $ 5100 ( Medium ) , $ 5505 ( Hard ) BTD5 : $ 5015 ( Easy ) , $ 5900 ( Medium ) , $ 6370 ( Hard ) , $ 7080 ( Impoppable ) Official Description Generates 25 bananas every round ! ( flash ) Generates 13 big bunches every round ! ( mobile Banana Republic is the third upgrade for Banana Farm . It produces 25 bananas instead of 13 , equating to $ 500 per round . It appears in Bloons Tower Defense 4 Bloons TD 4 Expansion Bloons Tower Defense 5 Bloons Tower Defense 5 Deluxe Bloons Tower Defense Battles and Bloons Monkey City Contents show Appearance Edit BTD4 Banana Republic is the first upgrade of the Banana Farm to have a different layout . While the first and second upgrades have a hut and a field , the Banana Republic turns that hut and field into a much bigger house , kind of looking like a state house . There is another field in front of the building , with there being 4 banana trees instead of 6 . There is also a small path leading from the door of the building . Last of all , there is a flag on the right side of the field BTD5 It also appears different from the lower tier - 1 and tier - 2 upgrades . If the player upgrades a Banana Plantation to a Banana Republic , the large crate containing the banana palms is replaced by an orange building with a banana palm at the side and a fictional Banana Republic flag . This looks different in the mobile versions of BTD5 and Bloons Monkey City , which is instead a white building with a Spanish - style roof including two banana palms in front of it . The fictional Banana Republic flag is instead a flag of yellow , green , black , green and yellow with vertical stripes , plus a banana bunch in the center of the flag . Strategy Being the predecessor to the most powerful Banana Farm upgrade ( at least in Path 1 ) , a Banana Republic should be purchased as early as possible . However , in tracks with more space for placing Farms , more Banana Plantations should be purchased instead , being the most cost - efficient non - tier 4 upgrade . Differences Between BTD5 Flash and BTD5 Mobile Banana Republic produces more cash per round ( $ 500 โ $ 520 ) . Update History ( Bloons TD Battles Mobile ) The Banana Republic formerly was less efficient than two Banana Plantations . Formerly , it was only bought as a stepping stone for Banana Research Facility or if there is n ' t enough space for more Farms . But after the 4.6 buff , Banana Republic is now just slightly more efficient than the Banana Plantation . 4.6 Banana Republic produces more bananas per round ( 13 โ 15 ) . Gallery Banana Republic artwork in Bloons TD 5 Banana Farm icon in BMC Banana Republic In Bloons Tower Defense 5 Flash Banana Republic in BTD5 Mobile Banana Republic Mobile Artwork in game ( BTD5Mobile / BTDBMobile ) Banana Republic Mobile Artwork in game ( BTD5Mobile / BTDBMobile ) BMC Mobile appearance with the Flash artwork Banana Republic Artwork ( BTD5Mobile / BTDBattleMobile ) Add a photo to this gallery Trivia There is actually a real - life clothing store called Banana Republic . Banana republic is a pejorative term for a typically Latin American country politically unstable , submissive and often a rich country with a corrupt and oppressive ruler . Its economy is largely dependent on the export of a single product of limited resources , such as bananas . It ' s more efficient to get 2 Banana Plantations as opposed to a single Banana Republic , because two Banana Plantations are cheaper and give more cash too ( 2 Banana Plantations cost $ 5400 and give $ 520 per round ( $ 560 on Mobile ) , while 1 Banana Republic costs $ 5900 and gives $ 500 per round ( $ 520 on mobile ) . In Bloons TD Battles however , 2 Banana Plantations cost $ 5900 and give $ 840 every round , while 1 Banana Republic costs $ 6150 and gives $ 900 per round . 2 plantations will break even in ~ 7.02 rounds while 1 Banana Republic breaks even after 6.83 rounds . This means in Bloons TD Battles , 1 republic is more efficient than 2 plantations . The flash version of banana republic produces 25 bananas while the mobile version only produces 13 . This is because in mobile , there are half the amount of bananas , but they are worth double the money . The flash version of appearance have one tree and the mobile version appearance have two trees . Strangely , in BMC Mobile , the tower appearance is the BTD5 Mobile tower appearance but the artwork is the BMC Flash appearance . There used to be a glitch in BTDB Mobile where the Banana Republic description was n ' t updated after the Version 4.6 buff . This was fixed in Version 4.9 . In BTD6 , the Banana Republic did not make a comeback . Instead , the pre - existing Banana Plantation upgrade fills that role as the third - tier . This may be due to avoiding offense , particularly with regards to Central America .

http://bls.dor.wa.gov/ownershipstructures.aspx | Types of business structures Sole Proprietorship A Sole Proprietorship is one individual or married couple in business alone . Sole proprietorships are the most common form of business structure . This type of business is simple to form and operate , and may enjoy greater flexibility of management , fewer legal controls , and fewer taxes . However , the business owner is personally liable for all debts incurred by the business . General Partnership A General Partnership is composed of 2 or more persons ( usually not a married couple ) who agree to contribute money , labor , or skill to a business . Each partner shares the profits , losses , and management of the business , and each partner is personally and equally liable for debts of the partnership . Formal terms of the partnership are usually contained in a written partnership agreement . Limited Partnership A Limited Partnership is composed of one or more general partners and one or more limited partners . The general partners manage the business and share fully in its profits and losses . Limited partners share in the profits of the business , but their losses are limited to the extent of their investment . Limited partners are usually not involved in the day - to - day operations of the business . Filing with the Washington Secretary of State is required . Limited Liability Partnership ( LLP ) A Limited Liability Partnership ( LLP ) is similar to a General Partnership except that normally a partner does n โ t have personal liability for the negligence of another partner . This business structure is used most by professionals , such as accountants and lawyers . Filing with the Washington Secretary of State is required . Limited Liability Limited Partnership ( LLLP ) A Limited Liability Limited Partnership is a Limited Partnership that chooses to become an LLLP by including a statement to that effect in its certificate of limited partnership . This type of business structure may shield general partners from liability for obligations of the LLLP . Filing with the Washington Secretary of State Corporation A Corporation is a more complex business structure . A corporation has certain rights , privileges , and liabilities beyond those of an individual . Doing business as a corporation may yield tax or financial benefits , but these can be offset by other considerations , such as increased licensing fees or decreased personal control . Corporations may be formed for profit or nonprofit purposes . Filing with the Nonprofit Corporation A Nonprofit Corporation is a legal entity and is typically run to further an ideal or goal rather than in the interests of profit . Many nonprofits serve the public interest , but some engage in private sector activities . If your nonprofit organization is , or plans to , raise funds from the public , it may also be required to register with the Charities Program of the Washington Secretary of State . Charitable activities may require additional registration . Contact the Office of the Secretary of State for more information . Limited Liability Company ( LLC ) A Limited Liability Company ( LLC ) is formed by 1 or more individuals or entities through a special written agreement . The agreement details the organization of the LLC , including provisions for management , assignability of interests , and distribution of profits and losses . LLCs are permitted to engage in any lawful , for - profit business or activity other than banking or insurance . Filing with the Massachusetts Trust A Massachusetts Trust is an incorporated business with the property being held and managed by the trustees for the shareholders . The trustees are considered employees since they work for the trust . Filing with the Trust A Trust is a legal relationship in which one person , called the trustee , holds property for the benefit of another person , called the beneficiary . Joint Venture A Joint Venture is formed for a limited length of time to carry out a business transaction or operation . Tenants in Common A Tenants in Common allows 2 or more people to occupy the same business while retaining separate identities in regard to assets or liabilities resulting from business activities . Municipality A Municipality is a public corporation established as a subdivision of a state for local governmental purposes . Association An Association is an organized group of people who share in a common interest , activity , or purpose . Note : If your business structure will be one of the following , you must file with the before filing the Business License Application : Washington ( Domestic ) Corporation Washington ( Domestic ) Partnership Washington ( Domestic ) Liability Company Washington ( Domestic ) Limited Liability Partnership | [

http://blueavocado.org/content/nonprofit-personnel-files-guide-ask-rita | You are here : Home HR and Employment Issues Nonprofit Personnel Files โ A Guide from Ask Rita Nonprofit Personnel Files โ A Guide from Ask Rita by Ellen Aldridge on August 4 , 2011 Categories : HR and Employment Issues | Other Topic Tags : Strategic Planning | Workplace Policies Committees & Meetings Dear Rita : We ' ve never paid too much attention to our personnel files , but we ' ve just entered a contract with the county and we think it ' s time for us to get our act together on this . I know we need a personnel file for each employee โ - but what should be in it ? Signed , An Accidental HR Manager Dear Accidental : It ' s great that you are asking this question now ! Good personnel files are important not just for your county contract but because documentation of various employment matters is required by many state and federal employment laws and most employee - specific documentation is best retained in a personnel file . For example , to comply with the Fair Credit Report Act ( FCRA ) when doing a background check , you โ ve got to give specific written notices and get a written authorization if a third party conducts the records check . The proof that you ' ve complied with FCRA should be kept in each individual โ s personnel file . The file should also contain performance evaluations and any documentation that evidences the employee โ s employment status ( a signed offer letter , an Employee Change Form reflecting things such as job title , wage rate , promotions , benefit coverage , and leaves of absence ) . The personnel file should read like the rings of a tree , giving evidence of an employee โ s history with your agency . The rest of this article provides an overview of how to manage your organization ' s personnel files and a checklist of documents to include in a personnel file . First , let โ s talk about what should not be in a personnel file , which is just as important from a legal perspective . What NOT to put in the personnel file Following are the most important items to exclude : Any writing regarding the employee โ s performance that the employee has not seen should not be in the file . For example , while the performance evaluation that was presented to the employee should be in there , a complaint memo from a department manager about an error the employee made that was never shown to the employee should not . Working notes or logs that a supervisor has kept for her own benefit , usually to assist in the drafting of a performance evaluation . The notes should be destroyed after documenting anything of importance in the annual performance evaluation . Any medical information ( including drug testing information ) about the employee from any source should never be in the employee ' s personnel file , but rather in a separate , more restricted confidential medical file . This separate medical file could also include any medical - related information such as documents related to Workers โ Compensation , FMLA and ADA . Complaints or investigation reports ( harassment , discrimination , ethics , licensing etc . ) . Any complaint about an employee that is subject to an investigation should not be in the employee ' s personnel file , but in a separate complaint file . For example , if an employee is accused of sexual harassment , the only thing that should be lodged in the personnel file is any disciplinary action taken against the employee or a substantiated report of wrongdoing โ but not the original complaint or investigation notes . These items also should not be kept in a personnel file , but in separate , confidential files : Hiring Documents , such as letters of reference , background investigation reports , or I - 9s EEO Statistical Information for the EEO - 1 Report Payroll records In short , to manage all of this personnel information we suggest four sets of files : A personnel file for each employee A separate medical file for each employee One folder that has Forms I - 9 for all employees A file ( or set of files ) for all employee payroll records What can the employee put into his or her own file ? Most employers ' policies allow an employee a limited period of time to submit a written response to any negative information in the file regarding performance . While responses and rebuttals are not required by law , this practice allows the employee to have her concerns documented , typically making it easier for everyone to move beyond any dispute and focus on performance . Where should we keep personnel files Since personnel files contain confidential personal information , you will also need to establish a policy about access and security of these files . We recommend these practices : Keep files in a locked cabinet and identify two staff ( such as the HR manager and the executive director in a small organization ) who will hold the keys . Maintain a written log that shows when a personnel file has been reviewed and by who . You can , for instance , staple such a form to the inside front cover of the file . Include a policy in your employee handbook that personnel files can only be accessed by the employee , his or her supervisor / manager , and others only if they have a need to know . ( Note that many states have laws that grant employees the right to review their own personnel file or to keep a copy of certain documents . In a separate locked drawer : Keep one file that has Forms I - 9 ( Immigration ) for all employees . Again , do NOT put an employee ' s I - 9 in his or her personnel file , athough you might want to have a checklist in the file that indicates that this information has been collected . Form I - 9 is the " Employment Eligibility Verification " form from the U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services ( USCIS , formerly called the INS ) . The government is entitled to inspect these forms , and if it does , you do n Keep a medical file for each employee . How long should we keep a personnel file ? As a general rule , keep files for four years after an employee separates from your organization , with the exception of the following documents , which must be retained for a longer period of time : Employee Benefit Plan documents and enrollment forms ( medical , retirement , etc . ) ( must be retained for 6 years under ERISA ) OSHA Toxic Chemical Exposure records and Material Safety Data Sheets ( 30 years ) and Workers โ compensation lost time injury reports ( example : in California , 5 years ) Remember also that since personnel files contain confidential information , proper destruction of records is critical . The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions ( FACT ) Act , effective in 2005 , requires all employers to burn or shred all applicant or employees โ personal information such as Social Security numbers , addresses , telephone numbers and any other information reported to an employer by a consumer reporting agency . Medical information should be handled similarly . Employers that use an outside party to dispose of records are expected to conduct due diligence in hiring a document destruction contractor . Checklist for documents to keep in a personnel file : Job description ( s ) Resume and / or employment application Offer letter Authorizations for background checks Certifications , licenses or proof of educational degrees or training Drivers โ license and proof of auto insurance ( if employee drives as part of the job ) Personal and emergency contact information W - 4 tax exemption form Benefits enrollment forms Beneficiary and dependent benefit forms Employee acknowledgment of receipt of Employee Handbook or any additional Employer Policies Performance evaluations Letters of commendation Attendance records ( but not payroll records ) Disciplinary memos Personnel action form ( also called employee change forms ) : Changes in salary , job title , etc . Payroll information including direct deposit authorization , memos related to wages attachments or garnishments , request / authorization forms for leaves of absence ( excluding medical certification ) Letters of resignation or termination ( Click here to download this checklist in a Word document you can modify . ) Dear Accidental : This may be more information than you expected , but it is n ' t as complicated as it might seem . Sincerely , Rita in HR See also in Blue Avocado Model Records Retention Policy Criminal Records Checks for Prospective Employees and Volunteers | [

http://bluebird-electric.net/rolls_royce_merlin_engine.htm | ROLLS ROYCE MERLIN ENGINE Rolls - Royce Rolls - Royce is a set of several companies , all deriving from the automobile and aero - engine company founded by Henry Royce and Charles . S . Rolls in 1906 . R olls Royce plc , by far the most significant in economic terms , is a British engineering firm these days specializing in turbine - based products , particularly aero engines , but providing a wide range of civil and military engineering products and services . Official site : http : / / www . rolls - royce . com / In 1928 Vickers Aviation took over Supermarine . In 1938 Supermarine and Vickers were taken over by Vickers - Armstrong . The first Supermarine landplane to go into production was the famous Spitfire , which proved to be a successful design and , along with the Hawker Hurricane , entered into legend after its role in the Battle of Britain . In 1936 the Air Ministry called for new fighter aircraft A fighter aircraft is a military aircraft designed primarily for attacking other aircraft . Compare with bomber . Fighters are comparatively small , fast , and highly manoeuverable , and have been fitted with increasingly sophisticated tracking and weapons systems to find and shoot down other aircraft . Rolls Royce Merlin Engine The Merlin engine was essential to Britain s war effort , it not only powered the Spitfire , but also the Hurricane , Lancaster and Mosquito . The Spitfires in the Battle of Britain were fitted with the Merlin III of 1,030 horsepower . Developed as a replacement for the Kestrel engine that had powered the RAF ' s graceful Fury Biplanes in the 30s , and whose development had been spurred by the American Curtiss engines , it is perhaps surprising that the Merlin was designed at all . When the Merlin was on the drawing board a simple development of the Kestrel called the Peregrine promised to be very successful , and a 24 cylinder variant called the Vulture was hoped to give 1,700 horsepower . There was also the chance that the " R " engine that had powered the Supermarine S6 could be developed as a production engine ( the Griffon ) . Thus the Merlin was seen as something of a stop - gap to fill the void between the Vulture and the Kestrel . It is just as well the Merlin existed , the Vulture engine had a very troubled time in development and two aircraft programmes based on it , the Avro Manchester bomber and the Hawker Tornado fighter had to be cancelled . The Peregrine overcame some early problems , The Griffon only became available in quantity during the last two years of the war . Of course there was another manufacturer of in - line engines in Britain , D . Napier and Sons , but again both of their major engine projects , the Dagger of 1,000 hp and the Sabre of 2,000 hp , had problems . Napier persevered with the Sabre , but it was only during 1942 that they became available in any numbers to power the Hawker Typhoon . Thus it was the Merlin that had to meet all Britain s in - line The Merlin was at first designed to have a novel cooling system . Evaporative cooling was to be provided by condensers in the wings with a small retractable radiator for use at low speeds and when taxiing . Evaporative cooling is a system in which latent heat of evaporation is used to carry heat away from an object to cool it . The latent heat contains a considerable amount of energy , and carries away more heat than if the same temperature liquid was simply removed physically . The simplest example would be sweat , which the body secretes in order to cool itself . The amount of heat transfer depends on the evaporation rate , which in turn depends on the humidity of the air and its temperature , which is why you sweat more on hot , humid Then Rolls - Royce adopted Ethylene Glycol as a coolant , which is more efficient than water , a radiator for the new coolant could be much smaller than those used with water - cooled engines , the wing condensers were then done - away with . The cooling system was vulnerable to damage by gunfire , particularly as the header tank was situated at the very front of the aircraft . A hit here by the rear gunner of a German bomber would cause a Spitfire pilot to have to break off his attack and land before the engine Ethylene glycol was first prepared in 1859 by the French chemist Charles Wurtz . It was produced on a small scale during World War I as a coolant and as an ingredient in explosives . Widespread industrial production began in 1937 , when its precursor ethylene oxide became cheaply available , the engine was switched to this system instead . Ethylene glycol ( IUPAC name : ethane - 1 , 2 - diol ) is a chemical compound widely used as an automotive coolant and antifreeze . In its pure form , it is a odorless , colorless , syrupy liquid with a sweet taste . Ethylene glycol is toxic , and its accidental ingestion should be considered a medical emergency . Packard V - 1650 Merlin Engine Designed by Rolls - Royce as a private - venture , the Merlin was able to take advantage of the new 100 octane fuel developed in the U.S.A. The Merlin only had one disadvantage when compared with German engines , the latter were fitted with fuel injection to deliver a precise charge of petrol to the combustion chamber . The Merlin still used a carburettor , which had the advantage of being much simpler and needing much fewer components , but it did cause the Merlin to " conk - out " if negative G forces were applied . Thus Spitfire would fall behind until the engine picked up , only a matter of a second or two , but that second was all the German needed . Spitfire pilots developed a way around this by doing a half - roll before following into a dive . This meant that the force of gravity acted in the opposite direction and the Merlin was unaffected . In 1941 a carburettor modification , developed by Miss Tilly Shilling , enabled the Merlin to carry on working with short periods of negative G , a vital stop - gap until the introduction of true Merlin development might have stagnated after 1940 , any further increases in power needed a more efficient means of transferring the heat away from the engine . Rolls Royce responded with a mixture of water and Ethelyne Glycol which was put under pressure . This mixture also reduced the fire risk associated with using pure Ethelyne Glycol . This system was first used in the Merlin XII used in the Spitfire Mk II . The rapid introduction of this system was only made possible by everything Rolls Royce had learnt about pressurised cooling when developing the Goshawk and early Merlin condenser systems . The RR Merlin engine in Miss Bardahl , one of the most successful racing hydroplanes in the 1960s - three times Gold Cup winner . This the view from the cockpit forward . Imagine the noise , hence the nickname ' Roar of the Dragon . ' As piston engines get higher , they lose power because the air gets thinner . What is needed is a fan to suck more air into the engine and improve combustion , just like bellows in a furnace . Such a device is called a supercharger , today more commonly a turbocharger would be used . It was the introduction of a more powerful two - stage supercharger to the Merlin that produced the leap in performance of the Mark VIII and IX Spitfires . A supercharger is a gas compressor used to pump a fuel / air mixture , the charge , into the cylinders of an internal combustion engine . This increases the concentration of oxygen and fuel in the charge making the engine more powerful . It is similar in purpose to the closely related turbocharger , but differs in that the supercharger is powered by gearing ( or belts ) off the engine ' s crankshaft , while the turbocharger is powered by the pressure of exhaust gases driving a turbine . The Merlin was produced under licence in America by the Packard company . These engines were used in the Spitfire XVI , but they also found use as the powerplant that enabled the P51 Mustang to be transformed from a low altitude army cooperation fighter into the long range , high altitude nemesis of the Luftwaffe . One thing that is often forgotten is that the capacity of the Merlin was quite small when compared to the opposition . The Merlin had a capacity of 27 litres , whereas the DB601 of the Messerschmitt was 39 litres and the BMW801 engine of the Focke - Wulf 190 had 42 litres . The superiority of the later Merlin engined Spitfires ( ie Mk IX ) over these Luftwaffe aircraft is all the more remarkable when this is remembered .

In Sept . 1940 , the Packard Co . agreed to build the Merlin engine for both the American and the British Governments , and adapted it for American mass - production methods . The first two Packard - built Merlins to be completed were demonstrated on test stands at a special ceremony at the Packard plant in Detroit on August 2 , 1941 . Full production began in 1942 and by the end of World War II , 55,873 Merlins had been produced in the U.S.A. The Army Air Forces used the engine almost exclusively in PACKARD SPECIFICATIONS Model : V - 1650 - 7 Type : 12 - cylinder with two - stage mechanically - driven supercharger Displacement : 1,649 cu . in . Weight : 1,690 lbs . Max . RPM : 3,000 Max . HP : 1,695 Cost : $ 25,000 The Rolls Royce Griffin engine . 3000hp @ 9000 rpm At one time , just before the opening of World War II , there were two types of fighters . Smaller single - engine planes were used as interceptors and day fighters , with airspeeds that would eventually have to be over 300 mph ( 480 km / h ) . Two designs were eventually selected for development , the Hawker Hurricane and the Supermarine Spitfire . Both were designed around the PV - 12 instead of the Kestrel , and were the only modern fighters on the drawing boards . The PV - 12 was instantly catapulted to the top of the supply chain and became the Merlin . First widely delivered as the 1,030 hp ( 770 kW ) Merlin II in 1938 , production was ramped up quickly . Early Merlins were considered to be rather unreliable , but their importance was too great for this to be left alone . Rolls soon introduced a superb quality control program to address this . The program consisted of taking random engines right off the end of assembly line and running them continuously at full power until they broke . They were then disassembled to find out which part had failed , and that part was redesigned to be stronger . After two years of this the Merlin matured into one of the most reliable aero engines in the world , The result was that the otherwise similar engine delivered 1,300 hp ( 970 kW ) . This process continued , with later versions running on ever - increasing octane ratings , delivering ever - increasing power ratings . By the end of the war the " little " engine was delivering over 1,600 hp ( 1,200 kW ) in common versions , and could deliver over 2,000 hp ( 1,500 kW ) for brief periods in some versions .

Merlin ( Falco columbarius ) is a falcon found throughout the northern parts of the Northern hemisphere in Canada and northern Europe . In North America it was once known as the pigeon hawk , and its scientific name ( from columba , a dove ) also refers to this popular prey item .

http://bluegrassmusic.com/content/2013/feature/the-steeldrivers/ | The SteelDrivers The SteelDrivers Hit The Ground Running With New Lineup And New Album By Derek Halsey The SteelDrivers arrived in the bluegrass world like a hail storm hitting a hobbled mule . Before I heard a single note from the SteelDrivers , some friends of mine saw them open for Marty Raybon at a small outdoor bluegrass venue near Lebanon , Ohio , and raved about them . Then , after listening to that first SteelDrivers recording , I was quickly on the bandwagon . The music was fresh , the songwriting strong , and they were putting the blues back in bluegrass . February marked the release of their new recording Hammer Down . It will be the first album to feature the group โ s current lineup . While the band lost some key members along the way after their initial success , they have landed on their feet and are ready for a new era . The SteelDrivers formed , as the now well - known tale is told , as the result of a living room jam session by some music industry professionals who wanted to play some bluegrass . That original version of the band featured the bluesy songwriting and singing of Chris Stapleton , the mandolin and slide guitar of Mike Henderson , the solid banjo playing of Richard Bailey , the steady bass of Mike Fleming , and the awesome fiddle work and vocals of Tammy Rogers . โ I was still out on tour with Reba McEntire . I think I still had a Nashville publishing deal then , and I was doing what I had been doing for ten or fifteen years in country music , โ said Rogers . โ I was being a freelance country musician . I was doing sessions and writing songs and doing the occasional Reba McEntire gig . So , we played the VFW in Franklin , Tennessee , and people kind of flipped out and suddenly there were people who wanted to come to the VFW to see us The SteelDrivers โ first album climbed the bluegrass charts and earned the group a Grammy and IBMA award nominations and led to performances on national television . Two years later , however , Stapleton left the group to concentrate on songwriting after recording the band โ s second effort titled Reckless . That happens often in the music world , especially on the bluegrass side of the ledger . The problem was in the timing , as in Stapleton โ s vocals were all over that second album front and center , yet when the group toured behind it , he was gone . All was not lost during that time of transition as a bit of good luck hit the band when Adele , one of the most popular singers on the planet , mentioned the group and sung one of their songs on her Adele : Live At The Royal Albert Hall DVD . Says Adele on the DVD , viewed around the world , โ I โ m going to do a cover now by the SteelDrivers who are based in Nashville , and I heard them about 18 months to two years ago , and this is the first song I heard by them โฆ It โ s called โ If It Had n โ t Been For Love , โ and I love it . So if you like it , check out their song , because it โ s just incredible . They are wonderful . โ โ You know , that most random stuff , you can never plan that , โ says Rogers . โ You ca n โ t even pay money for that kind of publicity . It โ s crazy . Fortunately , I have to say , that really kind of transported the band through a really difficult time . Because , by the time the second record Reckless came out in September of 2010 , Chris had already left the band . So we had to spend all of that year doing press and publicity and promoting a record and our singer was n โ t even out with us . โ That was really awkward and unusual and was almost like starting back from square one . But , in all of the interviews I did , I made it clear that he did n โ t grow up dreaming of being in a bluegrass band . That was n โ t his end - all and be - all . When I was growing up as a kid , that was it . I mean , I never thought about making my living in country music . That just kind of happened for , you know , a gazillion So , the remaining SteelDrivers had to adjust and regroup . They landed on their feet with the addition of Alabama vocalist and guitarist Gary Nichols , who has a similarly bluesy and powerful rasp in his voice like Stapleton . โ It โ s unbelievable , โ says Rogers , about finding Nichols at just the right time . โ It โ s crazy that it happened . We โ re kind of looking around and honestly , I felt adamantly opposed to trying to find somebody that sounded like Chris . I thought it would be contrary to โ So , we had a couple of guys come in and sing and they were way different , but it just did n โ t seem like it was the right fit . Then , one night , Janet , Mike Henderson โ s wife who is pretty computer savvy , was looking around and listening to music and somehow stumbled across Gary โ s video from when he was on Mercury Records . I think his first single was โ Unbroken Ground , โ which we will occasionally do now on acoustic . She called Mike over and After Gary โ s contact information was acquired , there was no taking the time to find his โ people , โ so to speak . The contact was immediate , direct and bold . โ Mike just cold - called him , โ says Rogers . โ Gary had not heard of the band at that point , but he knew Chris . They had written together when Gary had his Mercury Records deal and Gary said , โ Oh man , I โ m the biggest Chris Stapleton fan in the world . โ And , who is n โ t , really ? So , he listened to us and called Mike right back and said , โ Yeah , this sounds amazing . I โ d be into coming up and The SteelDrivers would have to deal with yet another big loss in late 2011 when Henderson left the band to do other projects . โ That was a total surprise , โ says Rogers . โ I was not expecting that . But honestly , I think as much as he loved the band and it was an amazing outlet for his songwriting , he just did n โ t want to travel as much as the rest of us . We were ready to go , and wanting to go out and take it farther . So , we were ready to go in and record , and he pulled the plug right before that weekend . But looking back , it was The answer came in the form of musician , producer , recording engineer , and music business veteran Brent Truitt . โ I had no idea that Brent would be interested in going out with us , โ says Rogers . โ I mean , he โ s got a studio here in town and he stays incredibly busy . But , sure enough , Richard had called him and said , โ Hey , Mike decided he did n โ t want to do this . Are you into covering some gigs until we find a replacement ? โ doing it . โ Richard asked , โ You mean doing it doing it , as in doing the band ? โ He said , โ Yeah ! โ And again , it was an amazing turn of events , a God thing , whatever you want to say , because he had been our only sub anytime Henderson could n โ t go , so he knew all of the old material . It was crazy . โ So , the new version of the SteelDrivers is headed into 2013 loaded for bear , ready to bring to life the wonderful new Rounder Records album Hammer Down . Every song on the project is new , with five cuts co - written by Nichols and three co - written by Rogers . And in a very cool move , there are four songs penned by either Stapleton or Henderson or by both together . โ I do n โ t want every record to sound the same , โ says Rogers . โ I think it โ s important for us , as a band , to continue the journey creatively with new people , new information , and a new batch of songs . The second album was bluesier with the addition of the National guitar and turning Chris loose to belt a little bit . But , I think this new album has a little bit more emphasis on the picking , for lack of a better word .

The peak to me is my heart finaly slowing down abit , the drug doing its job and subsideing my anxiety , but no real peek as persay to other drugs . Took my 8mgs clones and 60 mg temazepams and another 20 5mg nozinans and feel nuthing , haven a glass of wine rite now to relax . . D danny . zee81 Feb 19 , 2010 51 Midwest # 11 Clonazepam is a much milder benzo , so yeah the peak effects are felt within a couple hours but IMO the peak is n ' t nearly as noticeable as you would get with a short acting benzo like xanax . I suggest switching to a short acting benzo if you ' re really looking for " peak " effects . Keif ' Richards Moderator Staff member Aug 4 , 2010 4,823 Lowell , Massachusetts # 12 This next bit is sort of anecdotal , but I ' ll add it anyway . It ' s pretty much unanimous amongst us that the effects of benzos are usually subtle , when speaking of clonazepam this is quite so . But , if I have even 1 - 2 drinks ( I CAN DRINK btw ) I can go completely berserk K ' d - OUT - in - AZ Jul 11 , 2008 5,796 Somewhere between Eden and North Utopia .

I suggest switching to a short acting benzo if you ' re really looking for " peak " effects . Clonazepam is not a much milder benzodiazepine compared to the other benzodiazepines . Believe me , it is stronger than the majority . If you go naming other anxiolytics you ' ll realize it is stronger . You also have to realize that everyone reacts different . Clonazepam is more sedating than most . Think of all anxiolytics like Lorazepam , Oxazepam , Clobazam , etc . all weaker . The OP has a previous tolerance ( addiction ) to benzodiazepines so it will take a lot more to get the desired effects . I believe he said it has been 6 months . Well , it takes longer to lower the tolerance to benzodiazepines , probably at least a year . Benzo tolerance is a bitch . The effects of Clonazepam take roughly 1 hour to kick in , the peak is roughly 2.5 hours . . .lasts a while and the duration is roughly 10 - 12 hours . StaySedated Aug 21 , 2010 2,569 In the future # 14 yeah clonazepam is NOT a weak benzo . it is in the class of potent nitro - benzodiazepines , along with nitrazepam and flunitrazepam ( roofies ) . people label it " weak " because it does n ' t have very strong hypnotic effects or a quick onset to peak , but clonazepam is one of the strongest benzos around ( esp . when it comes to anti - anxiety power ) . JamtasticX May 3 , 2010 917 # 15 not sure about the peak , but I usually take my clonazepam under the tongue , and within 10 minutes or so I feel a cool rush . By cool I mean , like pepermint cool . # 16 Yeah , I like the taste of clonazepam .

How Much Clean Water is Available for Human Use ? by Zachary Shahan April 1 , 2010 , 7 : 26 am 7 We know that the world is covered in water . Continents are like large islands in the planet โ s much more expansive oceans . 75 % of the Earth is covered in water . Yet access to clean , fresh drinking water is a major world concern . An infograph I ran across on world water day helps to show , in a simple format , why this is the case . How much water is available for human use ? M Kuhn / Flickr ( Creative Commons ) First though , via planet green , here are some interesting water use numbers to chew on : 2.5 gallons : The amount of water per person much of the world is allocated . 400 gallons : The amount of water per person used by the average American citizen ; 30 percent of this is used for outdoor purposes , such as watering the lawn . 70 percent : The amount of worldwide water use that is allocated to farming ; most of these farming irrigation systems operate at only 40 percent efficiency . According to a 2002 article by Lester Brown , aquifers are depleting all over the world โ in China by 2 - 3 metres per year . In the US , the Ogallala aquifer is shrinking rapidly . In India , aquifers are going down by 3 metres per year , in Mexico by 3.3 meters per year . 263 : The number of rivers that either cross or demarcate international political boundaries , in addition to countless aquifers . According to the Atlas of International Freshwater Agreement , 90 percent of countries in the world must share these water basins with at least one or two other states . Major conflicts such as Darfur have been connected to water shortages , and lack of access to clean water . 1430 : Gallons of water per capita in the United States ; only 100 gallons of that is household use per person as most is used for agriculture , according to water expert Peter Gleick . 88 percent : Of deaths from diarrhea are caused from unsafe drinking water , inadequate availability of water for hygiene , and lack of access to sanitation ; this translates to more than 1.5 million of the 1.9 million children under five who perish from diarrhea each year . This amounts to 18 % of all under - five deaths and means that more than 4,000 children are dying every day as a result of diarrhoeal diseases . $ 11.3 billion : The amount of money required to provide basic levels of service for drinking and waste water in Africa and Asia . $ 35 billion : the amount of money spent on bottled water in the most developed countries in the world . 1.5 million : Barrels of crude oil used for making PET water bottles , globally . This is enough oil to fuel 100,000 American cars for a year . 2.7 tons : The amount of plastic used to bottle water . 86 percent become garbage or litter .

Va . / Ky . border . Prev Next Next Want to learn more about the Hatfields and McCoys ? Check out these great resources Editor ' s Note : This story was originally published in the March / April 1996 issue of Blue Ridge Country . Hers is the classic story of a girl who loved too much . Young and starry - eyed , she blinded herself to clan hatreds , and one spring afternoon , claimed Johnse Hatfield as her lover and intended husband . Little did she know how completely her happiness was doomed . Nor that she would become fuel in America ' s most famous , brutal feud . Before she died of a broken heart eight years later , she would become a casualty in the mountain war that left her alone , pregnant , a family traitor , bereaved She is the heroine of myth , music and movies . Even today , more than a century later , her life and that of her kinsmen form the compelling center for books and films . It is one in a horde of retellings . . . from major movies and love songs to old texts , many with widely varying version of dates , names , times and what occurred . Yet one fact remains : Nothing like the Hatfield - McCoy feud has ever happened in American life . Nor could it happen today . First , there are the people . . . Giants with fierce pride and strange names like Devil Anse . Cotton Top . Bad ' Lias . And " Squirrel Hunting " Sam . Men bred from the rugged individuals who scorned the courtesies and restrictions of their native , stifling Virginia society and chose to strike out for open spaces to the west , a wilderness where they could be free . Here in the mountain terrain among the wildest in eastern America , the twisting Tug Fork River sliced West Virginia ' s Logan ( now Mingo ) County with its Hatfields and Kentucky ' s Pike County with its McCoys into separate and independent - minded states . And never would that independence be more challenged than with the coming of the War Between the States , when Kentuckians and West Virginians fought and died for both the Union and the South ' s honor and cause . Strangely , if not for the war and its divisions , the tragedy of the Hatfields , the McCoys and Roseanna might never have been . Or perhaps , if there had not been that damnable pig . . . The People on the Peaks Peace was never natural along the Tug ' s banks . Especially not in the mid - 19th century . The men here doted on their skills at guns and fights , their spit - the - devil - in - the - eye fearlessness , their huge families , their freedom . For them , government barely existed . Courts were few and police protection almost nonexistent , with public servants dreading to venture into the hollows and backwoods near today ' s Matewan , W . Va . and Pikeville , Ky . Rugged outdoorsmen , often intelligent and usually illiterate , they made whiskey , logged timber , fished and hunted . And they excelled at their crafts . Many were such uncanny marksmen that the story is told of a shy mountain boy who put a bullseye through a coin thrown into the air without any of those present having seen him even draw his gun . The stuff of legend ? Likely , but indicative at least of the tenor of the time and region . Still , before the Civil War , there was a certain quiet harmony in that uncompromising land . With romance in mind , both Kentuckians and West Virginians frequently crossed the Tug in search of sweethearts , courted their choices and , as young couples , turned their relatives into relations . With so few families in the vicinity , there was limited variety . Cousins often married cousins . Hatfields married McCoys . And as babies swelled their ranks , all was well with the growing clans . The Reigning Patriarchs On either side of the river , men stepped forward to assume the mantle of leadership for their kin . In Kentucky , that mantle went to Randolph ( Randall , Ole Ran ' l ) McCoy , a tall , broad - shouldered man of property with gray eyes , full beard and serious , almost morbid , bent of personality . Married to his cousin Sarah , the couple produced 16 children , one dead at birth but a surviving brood that included nine fighting - age sons and six daughters , among them the ill - fated Roseanna . Described by a sympathetic author as " a kindly old man , " he nonetheless seldom laughed and Ruling the West Virginia bank was Capt . William Anderson ( Devil Anse ) Hatfield , also tall , gray - eyed and bearded , with a striking resemblance to Stonewall Jackson . Gifted with an innate talent for tall tales , a love of pranks and almost clownish sense of humor , the former Confederate officer was a legend in his own time , thanks to his incredible marksmanship and legendary feats . With finite detail in his book , " The Hatfields & The McCoys , " Virgil Carrington Jones describes an instance when Devil Anse single - handedly cowed a large band of Union soldiers from his perch on a mountaintop . Methodically pivoting from one position to another and with unerring accuracy , he held them at bay in the ravine below until the band , under cover of darkness , turned tail and silently stole away . Once described as a man who had " never killed anyone just for the pleasure of it , " it ' s told that at some point in his youth , Devil Anse came across a sleeping bear and kicked it to consciousness , apparently for the sport of it . He then stood guard over it , without food , drink or ammunition , through two days and a night . When worried family and friends rescued him , he insisted the food go first to his dogs , then shot the animal in its hiding place and vowed Like McCoy a prolific father , Hatfield and his wife Levicy filled their home with 13 children , four daughters and nine sons . It was his oldest , Johnson ( Johnse ) , who would become Roseanna McCoy ' s object of love , lust and broken dreams . Yet the senior Hatfield and McCoy were not , by nature , totally at odds . At the heart of it , each was a " simple , hospitable mountaineer . . . affectionate and home - loving . " And perhaps sharing the same mortal flaw : an overpowering The Divided Banks If only there had been no war . . . If only the neighbors had all fought together . . . But reality was bitter . With West Virginia ' s admittance to the Union in 1863 , Devil Anse Hatfield realized that , as a Southern sympathizer , he , his family and property were in real danger . Now , in the name of home defense , he formed the Logan Wildcats , which as one of the most feared guerrilla bands to patrol the Tug ' s banks , too often forgot its honorable objective and cashed in on the less - than - honorable spoils of war . In a tit - for - tat aggression , Finally , on Jan . 7 , 1865 , they claimed their first victim . A Union veteran who had waited two years to enlist , Harmon McCoy , younger brother of Ole Ran ' l , had defied his family ' s loyalties by joining Northern forces as a private for 12 months . Suffering a broken leg and discharged on Christmas Eve 1864 , he returned home to a chilly welcome and a chilly warning from Devil Anse ' s ruthless uncle , Jim Vance , that he could expect a visit from Devil Anse ' s Wildcats . Frightened by gunshots as he drew water from his well , Harmon hid in a nearby cave , supplied with food and necessities each day by his slave , Pete . But Harmon ' s fate was sealed . His tormentors followed Pete ' s tracks in the snow , discovered the ailing Harmon and shot him dead . At first , Devil Anse Hatfield was the prime suspect . Later , after finding the Wildcats ' leader had been confined to his bed , the guilt turned squarely on Vance and , according to some accounts , " Wheeler " Wilson , the real gunman . But in an area where Harmon ' s military service was an act of disloyalty , even his family believed the man had brought his murder on himself . In the end , the case died with no suspect brought to trial . Even so , it was a frightening reminder of the brutality that the families ' hostilities could bring to life . A Pig in Court For 13 years , peace reigned along the Tug . With the passing of time , Hatfields and McCoys forgot the tensions and injustices of the war years . Again , the families intermarried . Even the patriarchs , with Ole Ran ' l considerably older , added to their expansive families . In West Virginia , times were good . Devil Anse ' s logging enterprise prospered and his crew grew to 30 men . Through a lawsuit against Perry Cline , he gained 5,000 acres along Grapevine Creek , turning him into one of Logan County ' s wealthiest men . But near Kentucky ' s Blackberry Creek , the tide was about to turn . It happened one autumn day in 1878 when Ole Ran ' l stopped to visit a Kentucky Hatfield , his wife ' s brother - in - law , Floyd . There Ran ' l spotted a familiar - looking pig and claimed it as his own , accusing Floyd of theft . ( Pigs in those days roamed free until herding time , marked only with an identifying ear notch . ) Tempers flared and soon the two faced off in court . Ironically , Preacher Ans Hatfield , a hard - shell Baptist minister and justice of the peace , presided over the jury of six McCoys , six Hatfields and a courtroom littered with jugs and rifles . The final verdict rested on the testimony of Bill Staton , a nephew of Ole Ran ' l and brother - in - law of Ellison Hatfield , who swore to Floyd Hatfield ' s ownership . It was enough . Floyd won . But Staton was marked for death . Within months he found it at the hands of Paris and Sam McCoy . Though Sam was tried for the shooting in a Hatfield court , which writers believe Devil Anse had instructed to acquit for the sake of peace , the gesture was futile . The McCoys were enraged that Sam had stood trial at all . Instead of gratitude , they felt an even greater hatred for the Hatfield clan , and it would take little more for the seething frustrations to burst into all - out war . Enter Romeo and Juliet Against this background of bubbling resentment , nothing could seem more foolhardy than a love affair between a daughter of Ole Ran ' l and a son of Devil Anse . But Roseanna McCoy was not wise . By the best measure , the spring election of 1880 proved her downfall . To mountain folk , elections were great social events . Men came to swap goods and stories , to drink and laugh and doze in the sun . The women grabbed the chance to visit , gossip and show off their gingerbread , a token bribe to influence votes of their choice . All in all , elections were not to be missed . Johnse Hatfield understood that . Though only 18 and a West Virginia resident , he descended on Jerry Hatfield ' s Kentucky grounds that day dressed in his finest yellow shoes and new mail - order suit . A notorious lady ' s man whose looks set hearts aflutter , he had romance in mind . Then he spied Roseanna . Though her age varies from source to source , as does the spelling of her name , she was at least a year older than Johnse , by then a well - established bootlegger with stacks of ignored violations against him in Kentucky . The attraction was instant and magical . Soon Roseanna , considered one of Pike County ' s most beautiful girls , sauntered away into the nearby bushes with Johnse . The two returned hours later , when the sun was beginning to set and Roseanna realized her brother , Tolbert , had left for home without her . Panic - stricken and with fear in her eyes , she turned to her new lover . Johnse rose to the occasion , suggesting that she come home with him to the Hatfield cabin . It seemed the only thing to do . The Devil Resists But though Roseanna had , quite unexpectedly joined his household , Devil Anse was far from pleased at the idea of the couple ' s marriage . Some say he thought Johnse too young . Others swear he simply refused to have his own blood mixed with that of Randall McCoy . Whatever his reason , he turned deaf ears to Roseanna ' s pleading and when , months later , her mother sent her sisters to beg for her return , Roseanna went , in part , according to some historians , because of Johnse ' s wandering eye . But her stay with her own family , punctuated by Ole Ran ' l ' s nagging and reproaches , was short - lived . In desperation , Roseanna fled to her aunt , Betty McCoy , at Stringtown , Ky . , a spot closer to her lover and where the two could meet again with no prying brothers ' eyes to disturb them . But Roseanna had underestimated the male McCoys . One night , as the lovers rekindled the magic of their attraction , her kinsmen surrounded them , took Johnse prisoner and set out for the Pikeville jail . The alleged destination did n ' t fool Roseanna , who understood Johnse would be killed at the first convenient spot . In an act of sheer devotion and family disloyalty , Roseanna borrowed a neighbor ' s horse and rode , hatless , coatless and saddleless , to Devil Anse . Quickly gathering sons and neighbors , he led his forces over a shortcut , cut off the McCoys and For her bravery , Roseanna received a cruel reward . From that day , Johnse never again risked returning to her side . Hopeless and pregnant , she went back to the father who considered her ride an unforgivable sin . There , amid hostility and shame , she contracted measles and miscarried her child . To add to her heartbreak , Johnse married Roseanna ' s 16 - year - old cousin , Nancy McCoy , only months later , on May 14 , 1881 . Declaration of War In little more than a year , the Hatfield - McCoy feud would burst into flames , perhaps not coincidentally at Jerry Hatfield ' s home during the 1882 election . There in the shadow of Roseanna ' s first blush of love , her brothers , Tolbert , Pharmer and Bud , would , without seeming provocation , stab Devil Anse ' s brother Ellison 26 times and finish him with a shot in the back . After his death three days later , the trio paid with their own lives , tied to paw paw bushes and riddled with bullets , despite their mother ' s cries for mercy . Soon after , when the Hatfields decided someone was leaking their plans , they turned on Nancy McCoy Hatfield ' s sister , Mary Elliott , bursting into her home and switching her and her daughter with a cow ' s tail . When her brother Jeff McCoy tried to seek revenge , he was arrested , escaped and quickly shot at the banks of the Tug . Before the feud ' s end around 1891 , the death toll numbered 13 . To answer a legion of real and imagined wrongs from Ole Ran ' l and with considerable influence from his political ally Perry Cline - the man who had lost 5,000 acres to Devil Anse so long before - Kentucky ' s governor appointed special officer Frank Phillips in 1887 to arrest the murderers of the McCoy brothers . To sweeten the pot , he also offered outlandish reward money that unleashed an army of bounty hunters on the West Virginia ridges . Determined to leave no living witnesses to convict them of their crime , the Hatfields raided the McCoy family home on New Year ' s Day 1888 , killing daughter Alifair and son Calvin and burning the cabin to the ground . Suddenly public opinion shifted against the Hatfields , and Phillips began his work with glee and new names on his list , though he lacked properly executed extradition papers . In response , West Virginia ' s governor put up his own reward offers , sued his neighboring state for unlawful arrest of nine prisoners and eventually saw the case to the United States Supreme Court before the men were returned to Kentucky for sentences of death and prison terms . But there was little joy at the verdicts . Roseanna herself was gone . After tending her mother ' s wounds from the New Year ' s Day raid , Roseanna grew more and more depressed , slipping away from life soon after . Less than 30 at her death , she lies today buried in Dils Cemetery at Pikeville . In a twist of fate , Johnse Hatfield , convicted separately and later than the others of feud crimes , was pardoned when he saved the life of Lt . Gov . William Pryor Thorne as the latter was attacked by an inmate during the official ' s prison inspection . Johnse ' s wife Nancy had long since left him , moved in with and , upon the pair ' s mutual divorces , eventually married his pursuer , Frank Phillips . She died at 36 . The evil Jim Vance was killed in the feud . His young comrade , Cap Hatfield , went on to become an attorney and the father of Logan County ' s first woman lawyer . And Those Left Untouched When the smoke had cleared , there remained the greatest irony of all . With all the bloodshed around them , both Devil Anse and Ole Ran ' l were left unharmed . Both lived well into their 80s . Randolph McCoy died of burns on March 28 , 1914 . Devil Anse , who had become a baptized , born - again Christian in 1911 , succumbed to pneumonia on Jan . 6 , 1921 . His funeral , at Sarah Ann , W . Va . was the largest ever held in Logan County . Descendants of both men went on to honor their states and nation as governors , educators and physicians , and in December of 1995 the site of Devil Anse Hatfield ' s burial was dedicated as a national monument . It ' s not known how many McCoys were in attendance . Want to learn more about the Hatfields and McCoys ? Visit our resource page Prev 1 2 Tags Hatfield - McCoy Feud December 1 , 2013 12 : 00 AM | [

Richard Falknor on 20 Feb 2019 Marc Short : Patriotic Grass Roots Must Get Word To President โ Hiring Big - Immigration Aides Now Signals DJT Indifferent To Campaign Promises . The indefatigable Neil Munro here documents Marc Short โ s record of immigration - policy mischief as the former Koch Bros operative is apparently formally reentering the inner sanctum of the Trump Administration โ โ โ โ Seven Ways Marc Short Stalled Donald Trump โ s Immigration Reforms โ โ Vice President Mike Pence is bringing Marc Short back to the White House , despite Short โ s failure to deliver on President Donald Trump โ s core promise of immigration reform and a border wall . On Pence โ s advice , Trump hired Short in 2016 as his first outreach chief to Capitol Hill . But Short spent his time trying to win a tax cut and amnesties favored by his former employers , the Koch network . The resulting failure was made clear in March 2018 when Trump realized his deputies had ignored his demands for a big budget to build the wall . โ Read Breitbart โ s Neil Munro post carefully to see some of the damage the Trump Administration has already sustained on patriotic immigration reform . If the Angel Moms were able to get past the White House Palace Guard to see the president , our grass roots should be able to make a successful parallel effort to get their crucial message to Mr . Trump . The consequence of failure here will be our own civic displacement and the loss of expectations for our future generations . Comments ( 0 ) First things . . . Richard Falknor on 17 Feb 2019 Heads - Up Grass Roots ! Are you building blue - collar outreach in your state and county GOPs ? Some of you may have hear Tucker Carlson โ s interview last Thursday with Hillbilly Elegy author J.D. Vance . Vance โ s insights merit not just close consideration โ but are likely key to the GOP โ s future . The Daily Caller โ s Mike Brest summarized this revealing exchange in his post โ โ Hillbilly Elegy โ Author J.D. Vance : The Republican Party Does n โ t Actually Represent Its Own Voters Very Well ' โ Vance โ s central point โ โ โ The problem I have is that my party , the Republican Party , has n โ t quite figured out that we basically inherited a big chunk of the old FDR coalition the middle of the country โ working and middle class blue - collar folks โ sort of people who work , pay their taxes send their kids to the military . That โ s increasingly the base of the Republican Party . But the Republican donor elites are actually not aligned with those folks in a lot of ways . So there is this really big mismatch , . โ ( Highlighting added throughout . ) Hillbilly Elegy author Vance laid out the background โ โ โ โ Now look at who Republican voters increasingly are . They are people who disproportionately serve in the military but Republican foreign policy has been a disaster for a lot of veterans . They are disproportionately folks who want to have more children , โ Vance added . โ They are people who want to have more single earner families . They are people who do n โ t necessarily want to go to college but they want to work in an economy where if you play by the rules can you actually support a family on one income . โ Vance went on to criticize Republican policies over the last โ 15 or 20 years , โ arguing that they have not been helpful to much of their voting base . He also wondered whether or not the leaders of the Republican Party actually care about their voters . The author also suggested that the โ Never Trump โ movement is more about the people voting for the president , and less about Trump himself . โ Of course all this is immediately relevant to the late Pat Caddell โ s warning about the Trump Administration โ via Breitbart โ s Rebecca Mansour today โ โ โ [ Caddell ] also accurately predicted the troubles the Trump administration would face in the first two years of Trump โ s presidency if then - Speaker Paul Ryan and his GOP establishment cronies were given control over the president โ s policy agenda . Paul Ryan , Caddell said , represents โ the Chamber of Commerce Republican Establishment party โ whose ideas were โ slaughtered in 2016 . โ In a March 2017 interview on Breitbart radio , Caddell warned , โ The great concern for the Trump administration is that it โ s a Trump White House , but is this going to be a Ryan government ? โ He warned that the GOP establishment would use Trump โ to impose what they want to do rather than supporting what he got elected to do . โ The recent fight with Democrats over funding for Trump โ s border wall has proven Caddell โ s warning to be all too true . As Trump acknowledged in his remarks on Friday announcing his emergency declaration to build the border wall , โ I was a little new to the job , little new to the profession , and we had a little disappointment for the first year - and - a - half . People that should have stepped up did n โ t step up . They did n โ t step up and they should have . โ Trump is surrounded by leadership in his own party and in his own White House who are constantly stabbing him in the back and his agenda , โ Caddell told Breitbart News after the 2018 midterms . โ The Republican Party is essentially wusses . They will not fight . They do n โ t believe in fighting . They just lay down roll over , and usually for their donor class , who are basically antithetical to 90 percent of Republicans and what they want . โ Months earlier , Caddell accurately predicted that the GOP would lose the House in 2018 due to the failure of Paul Ryan and establishment Republicans to โ nationalize โ the midterms around the populist trade and immigration policies that got Trump elected . โ Comments ( 0 ) 2018 Election Richard Falknor on 16 Sep 2018 Is There A Third Way With RINOs Next November 6 ? โ I do not believe that the solution to our problem is simply to elect the right people . The important thing is to establish a political climate of opinion which will make it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing . Unless it is politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing , the right people will not do the right thing either or if they try , they will shortly be out of office . โ โ - Milton Friedman Here are Thursday โ s excerpts from Niall Stanage โ s โ Bannon says right must support โ RINOs โ โ โ - โ โ Look , I detest the Republican establishment and they detest me . I got it . I โ m fine with that , โ he told The Hill . โ That โ s a fight for a different day โ โ Stephen Bannon โ s goal understandably is to maintain GOP control of the House . Last Friday , however , Daniel Horowitz gave us a lamentable summary of what the GOP has actually done with its control of the Congress and the Executive Branch โ What election ? Republicans have already handed Congress to the Democrats โ Horowitz : โ What if I had told you during the 2016 elections that Republicans would pass a short - term budget bill funding the government and all its vices in a way that is absolutely indistinguishable from a bill Democrats would pass , merge it with a long - term bill funding the worst aspects of immigration , abortion , everything we hate about the Department of Education and Obamacare , massively increase spending , and then pair it with a bill funding the troops ? What if I had told you we were about to lose the next โ It โ s bad enough that the Senate passed a โ minibus โ funding the Departments of Health and Human Services ( HHS ) , Labor , and Education , attached to defense spending . It โ s bad enough that Republicans planned on passing a stopgap continuing resolution ( CR ) locking in last year โ s spending increase through December 7 without addressing the border crisis . Now they have introduced a final bill merging the two . โ Daniel Horowitz concludes ( but read his entire post ) : โ Now we have all three branches , and yet the Republicans are light - years to the left of Democrats of the โ 90s . โ โ At its core , this is the mentality that GOP voters despised when they voted for Trump , yet he has signed every budget betrayal and has declined to threaten a veto of this bill every day , even though he promised he โ d never get owned in another budget bill and saw this coming a mile away . โ Political Orphans ? After reading Bannon โ s recommendation , some of our Virginia readers indicated they were torn between voting for a member they found deeply unacceptable โ or throwing their vote away . In short , this was just one more case of the GOP Establishment making conservatives into political orphans . A Third Way ? Here is a possible way โ not just for Virginia patriots but for those in other states โ to deal with candidates either unresponsive to the central concerns of the Trump Revolution or who are simply Inept Establishment Republicans : Organized conservatives ( including our new blue - collar voices ) should consider meeting with such candidates now , asking for public commitments โ among which might be : Pledging regular post - election meetings with local conservatives . Pledging to replace House leadership with Representative Jim Jordan or someone of his caliber , e.g. , a Representative Mo Brooks Pledging to restore sovereignty over our borders and put American jobs first , not just a wall but e - verify , cutting legal immigration , and reforming asylum and refugee programs . Pledging to come to grips with Jihad activity in the U.S . Pledging to fight censorship by Giant Media The overall message : the priorities of Organized Conservative Constituents must trump the special interests of the candidate โ s Giant Donors Ask for major policy commitments chosen from the top concerns of local patriots . ( Preserving the Second Amendment and free speech are just two other pressing major policy concerns . ) This approach may not work with all questionable candidates โ some may not even respond . In competitive districts , however , politically smart candidates ( however questionable ) would at least make an effort with local organized conservatives . This Third Way may be one avenue to make it โ politically profitable for [ some of ] the wrong people to do the right thing โ and by doing so energize a base that would otherwise remain dispirited . 2018 Election Richard Falknor on 04 Sep 2018 Tell Our GOP Candidates For Congress That โ Immigration the Most Important Issue to GOP Voters for Last Half Year โ โ ( Facts & Informed Opinion To Energize & Sharpen Trump Support โ Part 5 ) And how many of our younger voters understand that they are up against roughly 1.5 million white - collar visa - workers in American jobs : cheap foreign doctors , therapists , programmers , engineers , accountants , designers , architects , managers , recruitment specialists , P.R. experts and many other professionals ? Why is n โ t this also a major issue for our GOP candidates ? John Binder โ โ Poll : Immigration the Most Important Issue to GOP Voters for Last Half Year โ For the sixth consecutive month , Republican midterm voters have told pollsters that immigration is the most important issue facing the United States . โ โ Every year , the U.S. admits more than 1.5 million foreign nationals , with the vast majority deriving from family - based โ chain migration , โ whereby newly naturalized citizens can bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the country . โ โ In 2016 , the legal and illegal immigrant population reached a record high of 44 million . โ โ By 2023 , the Center for Immigration Studies estimates that the legal and illegal immigrant population of the U.S. will make up nearly 15 percent of the entire U.S. population . โ โ The Harvard / Harris poll revealed that 77 percent of white voters , 53 percent of black voters , and 51 percent of Hispanic voters said they believe the U.S. needs to crack down on immigration laws . โ โ The massive importation of low - skilled foreign nationals to the U.S. has translated to a cheap labor economy that has aided in keeping American mens โ wages stagnant for at least 44 years , as Breitbart News reported Median earnings for American men working full - time were actually lower in 2016 than they were in 2007 . โ Neil Munro โ โ โ NY Times : Business Needs More Foreign H - 1B Workers , Stat ! โ CEOs and investors need the government to import more H - 1B visa - workers for U.S. jobs because โ a sustained reduction in immigration could dampen growth , โ says a report in the New York Times . โ โ While touting the need for more โ economic growth , โ the article hides the huge scale of the H - 1B program and it dismisses the evidence that hundreds of billions of dollars have been transferred from graduates โ per - capita salaries over to the investors on Wall Street . โ โ Overall , the U.S. government helps companies keep a population of roughly 1.5 million white - collar visa - workers in American jobs . The various visa programs โ H - 1B L - 1 , J - 1 , H4 EAD OPT , TN โ allow employers to hire cheap foreign doctors , therapists , programmers , engineers , accountants , designers , architects , managers , recruitment specialists , P.R. experts and many other professionals . โ ( Highlighting added throughout . ) Richard Falknor on 31 Aug 2018 Daniel Horowitz : โ 25 no - brainer immigration plans to make America safer โ and win the election โ โ ( Facts & Informed Opinion To Energize & Sharpen Trump Support โ Part 4 ) Daniel Horowitz writes : โ Republicans are bleeding their traditional suburban voters at a quick pace . They are without a narrative and nearly out of time to make a difference for this election . When they return from summer recess , they have one final opportunity to either make a big play on the top issue on voter โ s minds . Or they could simply monkey it up by running out the clock while they are losing . โ โ According to recent polls immigration is the top concern of voters . And for good reason . It touches on every important economic , security , and cultural issue voters care about , and unlike other issues , it is amazingly simple to solve . We can choose our own immigrants , period . โ Here is a list of 25 ideas , most of which have already been introduced as legislation , that are political winners and will completely reorient the narrative of this election . This is not a complete list of the best ways to deter illegal immigration and reform the broader system , but they are all commonsense reforms that are easy to communicate and would effectively deter illegal immigration without touching on certain sensitivities of weak GOP members ( assuming they really want to solve the issue ) . As you are reading through them , imagine the powerful ads that could be created to expose all the Democrats opposing them , particularly those senators up for re - election in red states . โ Imagine if Republicans spent the next two months keeping the Democrats in session and off the campaign trail while passing a new pro - American immigration bill every day . โ added . ) Click here for the 25 ideas .

The remedy is political , and therefore local : replace the censors , throughout the society , and at all levels , with tolerant people .

Throw out the anti - American censors , let โ s vote for a free society . โ David Horowitz is now organizing a national movement to fight back : โ The censorship powers of Social Media are awesome and historically unprecedented .

Freed speech is the most basic freedom we have because all our other freedoms are dependent on it . We may disagree with our coalition partners about everything under the sun , except this . The right to dissent and to disagree is what separates us from countries in which civil wars and coup d โ etats are commonplace . Private corporations can not be the arbiters of free speech .

Goldman discussed the trade war with China with SiriusXM hosts Rebecca Mansour and Joel Pollak on Tuesday โ s Breitbart News Tonight . โ Although he is a supporter of President Donald Trump and believes China presents โ the most dire problem we face in the world , โ he warned the administration may be underestimating China โ s economic strength and that tariffs alone are not enough to confront them . The U.S. โ should determinedly seize technological leadership the way we did against the Russians after Sputnik under the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations , as Reagan did during the Cold War . ' โ โ โ I think we should be extremely aggressive in stopping technology transfer , โ he recommended . โ From the standpoint of the shareholders in a high - tech company with a five - year horizon , if you make a deal with the devil you get access to the Chinese , and in return you hand over your technology โ well , the next five years might be great and your stock price might go up , but the United States of America would be the loser in the long term . โ โ โ โ On national security grounds , there has to be a way for the United States to simply tell these top American companies that are trying to get into the Chinese market , โ You are not allowed to transfer that technology . We will monitor you , and we โ ll make sure you do n โ t do it . โ There would be a lot of upset about that on the part of the high - tech companies . They would n โ t like it , but national security comes first , โ he said โ โ Tariff wars are not going to do the job on China right now , โ Goldman said summation . โ It โ s simply not an effective instrument .

http://bluewaterjon.blogspot.com/2013/01/giant-headless-mystery-fish-baffles.html | Jon Schwartz ' s Blog : Fishing , Big Fish Photography , and Travel 1 / 5 / 13 Giant Headless Mystery Fish Baffles Fishermen and Scientists A bizarre decapitated sea creature was found floating off Hawaii โ s Kona Coast . Even with pictures and photos of the 7 foot long serpent - shaped body , fishing experts and marine biologists are thus far unable to identify the rare and unusual species . Captain Dale Leverone was fishing aboard his Kona charter boat Sea Strike for giant โ grander โ blue marlin with his son and first mate Jack when something weird , long , and shiny near the surface caught Dale โ s attention . Jack recalls , โ I thought it was a car bumper , but then I remembered they do n โ t float ! โ Jack ' s been fishing with his father since he was two and a half . The pair and their passenger stopped trolling lures for a moment to scoop up the strange animal . It appeared to be freshly killed and was still bleeding . If the head and tail were still attached , it would have been in perfect condition ! Captain Dale first thought it might be an oarfish . Jack and Dale took some photos of their strange fish on the boat and Jack immediately shared the pictures with some friends , including me ( Jon Schwartz ) . As a fishing photographer ( see my Big Fish Photo Website Bluewaterjon . com ) , fellow monster fish enthusiast , and frequent visitor to Kona , I โ ve befriended the Leverones over the years . Within seconds of seeing the photos I contacted them , eager to learn more . I could barely contain my excitement when Jack returned my message . I โ d lucked out by reaching them while they still had the exceptional find on board . โ Jack did you really just find that ? โ I asked incredulously . Ya we just found it . It ' s still bleeding because a shark bit it ' s head off . โ Ok cool ! Take a million pics from all angles and send them to me ! โ I replied . The Leverones resumed trolling for massive marlin and took more pics of the curious beast from the briny depths . Since Jack and his dad were still in the middle of a fishing tournament , he did n โ t have much time to talk , so we agreed to chat later that evening . I was thrilled with the notion that I might know someone who has seen an oarfish up close . Now that ' s a real celebrity ! Along with Opah , Oarfish are one of the oddest looking creatures in the sea , and I dream of one day swimming with one for some amazing underwater photo opportunities . Ironically , Leverone is one of the few people I know who has caught an Opah . Here he is with an opah catch that made big news in Kona in 2005 . In fact , two years ago Dale and I spent the better part of a day on the his boat the Sea Strike fishing and talking about oddities like opah and oarfish . To confirm Dale ' s hunch that the headless creature was indeed an oarfish , I contacted noted Hawaii fishing expert and historian Jim Rizzuto . Jim has written for decades about remarkable catches in Hawaiian waters , as well as a host of highly regarded how - to and historical fishing books and articles . Dale and Jack thought it was an oarfish , and speculated that had its head bitten of by a shark at the surface . They figured that the shark was still nearby and was going to finish its meal , but they had spooked it with their boat when they scooped it up . Here is the photo of the part where the head was taken off , possibly They figured that the shark was still nearby and was going to finish its meal , but they had spooked it with their boat when they scooped it up . What did Jim think ? Jim told me , โ Because it was headless , I assume it was attacked and killed by a predator and the body floated to the surface . It might have been hooked on a deep water line of some kind and then discarded by the fisherman who caught it , but that seems unlikely . โ Here is a picture of where the tail would have been on the mystery fish . Notice the cut angle is different than the angle of the laceration near the head . Had it been attacked by a shark that disabled it first , and waited until it floated up and bled out before planning to gulp it down ? Maybe Dale was right , a shark could have been lurking nearby and they interrupted his meal . Mealus Interruptus . Bummer for the shark ! Jim and I had the luxury of doing some research while the Leverones were still busy on the water , and Jim said he thought the absence of a red dorsal fin would mean it was n โ t an oarfish . Jim thought it might be a type of cutlass fish ; possibly a Hawaiian ridge scabbardfish , but without the head , it was going to be hard to get a positive ID . They seem to be so rare that the only image I was able to find was this old - school drawing on Wikipedia : Rizzuto told me that they were rare enough that he did n โ t have โ a specific remembrance of other sightings and I have no memory of having seen one in the market โ . To me that โ s significant because to my knowledge , nearly everyone in Hawaii contacts Jim when they catch anything big or unsual , and it โ s been that way for many decades . Next I consulted Owyn Snodgrass and James Wraith , fisheries biologists at NOAA ( National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ) . Both of them thought it might be a King of Salmon fish - something I โ d never heard of before . I researched them ( one ' s pictured below in fairly rotten shape ) and they did n โ t look similar to the ones I saw on Wikipedia Snodgrass said that he doubted it was a Hawaiian ridge scabbard fish as he noted the largest recorded specimen was only 70 cm - only a fraction of the size of the fish found by Dale and Jack . For reference , here ' s a closeup of the Leverone ' s mystery fish ' s skin in another picture . Notice the apparent lack of scales . I kept peppering everyone with questions . Why did n ' t the predator eat more of it ? At what depth was it attacked ? I began to realize that because these are deep water fish , people do n โ t know a lot about them - even many scientists and fishing experts . I was able to find some fish that resembled the Leverone โ s mystery fish on Wikipedia , which listed them as โ Beltfish โ or " Largehead Hairtail " ( pictured here in a Tokyo fishmarket ) but who knows if they are the same species . For the record I hear belt fish taste exactly like chicken . While the Leverones were still on the boat they said that they planned on eating the fish . When I contacted them later Jack told me they had filleted the fish at the harbor and tossed the carcass so it was now impossible to get more photos of the body . I asked him for pictures of the meat while they were cooking it . Before they were able to take any pics of the fillets , the meat from the headless mystery fish turned into a gelatinous mess in the refrigerator and they decided to pass on eating it Jack ' s description of the jelly - like flesh matched up with some information I found online when I was researching oarfish , so who knows ? Snodgrass offered to submit the photos to people he knew at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in hopes of getting more answers on this fascinating find . Maybe we โ ll get lucky and get some answers soon ; if I get any more news , I โ ll be sure to post it on this blog , so stay tuned ! In the meantime , do you like big fish photos ?

Had a to of them in Virginia this year . January 6 , 2013 at 9 : 17 PM Anonymous said . . . I second that based on an obligatory Internet search . January 7 , 2013 at 6 : 33 PM I ' m an ichthyologist and it definitely does NOT look like an oarfish ( or any Lampriform fish for that matter ) . Looks like you got a headless cutlassfish ( Family Trichiuridae ) . Hard to tell exactly which species , but several of them reach the size shown in your pictures . Might be Trichiurus lepturus ? January 8 , 2013 at 2 : 47 PM It looks exactly like belt fish . In China it was one of the most common fish to eat before ' 80s . They are consumed less and more expensive now due to over fishing . If you are in US , you can find them in most Chinese grocery stores . January 8 , 2013 at 3 : 20 PM I think I ' ve got your fish - it has been encountered in the Hawaii longline fishery before , it grows to over 8 ft , and ca n ' t see any discrepancies in the pics to shots of this one - it is the Razorback scabbardfish , Assurger anzac , a species of cutlassfish . January 8 , 2013 at 3 : 34 PM Its called a Cutlass fish here in Trinidad and Tobago . We have tons of them down here . January 8 , 2013 at 4 : 22 PM looked like an arowana in its body structure but no scales and the head looks pretty narrow January 8 , 2013 at 4 : 29 PM Silver Scabbard Fish Guess you ' ll never Really know . . . January 8 , 2013 at 4 : 41 PM Friend For Life said . . . Sure looks like the Haitail we have here in Eastern Australia . They certainly do grow to that size . January 8 , 2013 at 4 : 54 PM Friend For Life It sure appears to be a hairtail of the type we get here in eastern Australia . Yes , they certainly and commonly do grow to that length . January 8 , 2013 at 4 : 57 PM Hey , I want to say that I ' ve caught one of those fish but it was n ' t nearly as big as yours . However , from what I remember was that whatever it was that we caught had no scales , has a really slick and very chrome looking skin , and almost looked like tape in the aspect that it did n ' t really have a belly . I was fishing off the coast of Cuba when we pulled a couple in . My buddy just said it was an eel and we left January 8 , 2013 at 5 : 06 PM After reading all the comments , I searched on cutlass fish , belt fish , and haitail . I got the same pages every time . Are all those names for the same fish ? January 8 , 2013 at 6 : 08 PM After reading all the comments , I searched on cutlass fish , belt fish , and haitail . I got the same pages every time . Are all those names for the same fish ? January 8 , 2013 at 6 : 08 PM band photography thanks for the pics . January 9 , 2013 at 3 : 28 AM Hi , It surely is a Scabbardfish . It ' s not the black one , but the probabily a huge silver scabbardfish . In Portugal , especially in Madeira islands it is best served fried like fishfingers with lemon slices and tomatosaused rice . I have been working at SeaExpert - Azores company on the deep - sea shark by - catch of the black scabbardfish fisheries near Lisbon . best regards and congrats ! Sidรณnio Paes January 9 , 2013 at 4 : 51 AM marin said . . . i think that this is Trahipterus trahypterus known as silwer sword fish . I have captured some but smaller this summer in Croatia January 9 , 2013 at 5 : 07 AM Related to the Ribbon Fish or Cutlass Fish . I used to catch them from my boat slip in Galveston , Tx , and they have a mouth full of menacing teeth , sometimes stealing half of a trout I had on a line . January 9 , 2013 at 5 : 55 AM It appears to be Trichiurus lepturus - the Atlantic Cutlassfish a / k / a the Ribbonfish . However , as this was caught off of Kona in the Pacific , it probably is not of the Atlantic variety . The guy that found this is pretty brave ( or stupid ) to try to eat the dead carcass of an unidentified fish he found floating by . January 9 , 2013 at 7 : 19 AM I must agree with the Razorback scabbard fish , without no visible discrepancies and common enough in size . http : / / en . wikipedia . org / wiki / Razorback_scabbardfish January 9 , 2013 at 8 : 34 AM I must agree with the Razorback scabbard fish , without no visible discrepancies and common enough in size . http : / / en . wikipedia . org / wiki / Razorback_scabbardfish January 9 , 2013 at 8 : 37 AM Definitely a Scabbard fish , but unusual for that size in the upper Pacific .

http://blurbomat.com/recovering-from-a-gall-bladder-removal/ | Recovering From a Gall Bladder Removal Jun 7 2011 Daily photos taken by dooce Well Six days of intense gut pain and Im mostly standing Ive got a little bit to share in the hopes that somebody out there might find this helpful andor have some tips for the next little bit of my life We pick up the scene at approximately 10am Thursday June 2 2011 where I was about to crack a joke on Twitter about how the staff were mumbling about the goods I decided to hold off on that tweet for a moment and as I saved it into the drafts folder the anesthesiologist and the residents came in to The IV went in just fine One of the best in the past months of being stuck countless times for blood draws scans and a number of procedures and tests leading up to this surgery Im convinced that most medical professionals contain a tiny bit of sadistic bent and this is evident when called upon to draw blood give an injection andor insert an IV This doc was kind After going over the procedure I kissed Heather and they wheeled me into the operating room OR and placed a mask over my face As part of the wheelin they gave me some chill out meds to calm me down I was assured that this was standard operating procedure After a moment I was out The next thing I remember was struggling to wake in recovery I kept hearing very loud beeps and a surly nurse telling me I needed to breathe on my own For the rest of the day I was terrified of sleeping even though I nodded off more than a few times After what seemed like hours they wheeled me into the recovery room which consisted of a recliner and a chair or two When I stood up from the recovery bed to move to the chair I just about passed out from the pain It was severe Heather was called into the room and the concerned looks she gave me let me know that something hadnt gone quite to plan She mentioned that I had been in surgery for two hours because they found a lot of scarring going on around my gall bladder and to remove that tissue took extra time I didnt know this until yesterday but Heather says I was in the recovery room for another two hours trying to breathe on my own I havent experienced stomach pain as severe as I had that day Standing up was brutal Sitting was brutal The only comfort was the two Lortabs they gave me and laying as horizontally as possible They had slowed my saline drip for most of the day and after we expressed that we wanted to go home they finally drained it into me quickly When they did that I began to feel a tiny bit better I did not want to spend a night in the hospital The notion of getting rest in a hospital is folly They wake you all Finally at 630pm or so Heather wheeled me out of the hospital me clutching a barf bag and trying to keep it together We got home okay but getting in and out of the car was an ordeal Getting upstairs to bed was an ordeal I sat on the bed and barfed into the barf bag breaking a 65 year barffree record one of my best barffree periods Pure bile Disgusting I immediately felt better and ate a slice of toast with peanut butter I hadnt eaten for 24 hours at that point I took my meds and went to Ive felt a little better each day with the exception of today I tried to be up more yesterday and I think I pushed it too far I should have spent more time horizontal Im sitting in my desk chair writing this and Ill be honest Im ready to lie down I took the pain meds for Friday and Saturday but started to get off them Sunday only taking them before bedtime Im thinking Ill take a couple today because Im exhausted From sitting Side effects Gut bomb feeling I can sleep on my left side but not my right At first I thought this was gasbowel pain but I think its just postsurgery pain Whenever I move it feels like a shot put is rolling around in there Shoulder pain This was described to me as a wellknown side effect from having my abdomen inflated to make room for the laparoscope and other surgery tools Apparently despite best efforts to remove the air from the gut some can remain and travel to the right shoulder area Ive definitely experienced that Phantom radiant pains For me it has manifest as esophagus pain rib pain and right shoulder pain similar to what Ive been experiencing prior to surgery I still cant sit up straight for too long There is a sweet spot but I cant stay there too long before I have to adjust my position Gas Severe debilitating and painful Burps are happening with more frequency Farts are intense Ive had Heather in stitches from laughing so hard Who knew that the ticket to family comedy hour was surgery Im going to have to replace several pairs of drawers as well as bedsheets Horrible gas Pain med nausea Only if I dont sleep it off After meal upset stomach feeling like I did before surgery for a couple of hours depending on what Ive eaten Constipation Ive been drinking a ton of water with Miralax and that has helped immensely Epilogue Im hopeful that the rest of the week will mean a gradual return to normalcy but Im not sure thats going to happen given how long I was under and the complications that arose The worst part of all of this is that Im not supposed to pick up anything heavier than a gallon of milk for another week at least and Marlo wants me to pick her up and hug her all the time Pain UPDATE Other posts about my Gallbladder

http://blushinginhollywood.com/makeup-made-in-the-usa/ | Makeup Made in the USA I recently watched an episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver about Fashion that focused on where fast fashion aka inexpensive and trendy clothes are made , who makes them , and what kind of conditions they are made in ( spoiler alert : they โ re mostly made by children in developing countries in terrible and unsafe conditions for little pay ) . This inspired me to do a post about makeup and beauty products that are made in the USA . It was SO hard to find information about this ! ! The best way to find out where a product is made is to look at the packaging which usually has the country of origin or where the products was made . The problem comes when you do n โ t have the packaging yet or are seeking out American made products and then the research becomes a bit more difficult . Lucky for you all I went through my makeup collection and I emailed a ton of these companies to find out where they manufacture their makeup to help you out ! Here โ s a few companies that make Makeup Made in the USA 1 . ColourPop โ ( CF ) Source ) Great news , there are some makeup products that are high quality , affordable , and made not only in the US , but right here in Los Angeles ! If you have n โ t heard about ColourPop yet they have fantastically pigmented lipsticks ( called โ lippies โ ) , coordinating lip pencils , and eyeshadows that are all $ 5 each ! They come in tons of amazing colors and I really feel that this brand comes up with some of the most interesting , trendy shades on the market . Plus , at $ 5 a pop you can afford to experiment ! This company is also cruelty free and they always post swatches on different skin tones which is also awesome ! Their products are currently only available online . 2 . theBalm โ ( CF ) Source ) LOVE this brand . I โ m actually going to do a post about my favorite products from theBalm at some point because I recently realized I use a decent amount of their products on a regular basis / it โ s one of my most used makeup brands ! Kyle Richards is a big fan of their blush . 3 . Makeup Geek ) I love this company ! Affordable , high quality products made by a company lead by a kick ass woman who is passionate about what she does . If you have n โ t heard of Makeup Geek yet , their eyeshadow quality is very similar to MACs at a fraction of the cost ( only $ 5.99 each ) . I also love their pigments and glitters and I โ m dying to try their new foiled eyeshadows which have been getting great reviews . 4 . LA Splash Cosmetics ) This company is all over Instagram with their Smitten Liptint Mousse which is a a velvet matte liquid lipstick that is waterproof , smudge - proof , and wo n โ t transfer or fade . They also come in cool colors like blue and green . These get awesome reviews , yet another product I need to try ASAP ! 5 .

This act requires retail sellers and manufacturers doing business in the state to disclose the efforts they are making to ensure their supply chains are free from slavery and human trafficking in effort to eradicate slavery and human trafficking from product supply chains . โ I would n โ t say the manufacturers are totally transparent at this point , but because of this if you contact them they should be able to tell you where your products are made . I โ m not saying you should only buy makeup made in the USA , but it โ s good to be a conscientious consumer . Procter & Gamble let me know that โ Please note , there is no federal or state requirement to label โ Made in USA โ for products that are made in the USA ( except for automobiles , textile , wool , and fur products . ) It is strictly optional for manufacturing companies to include this on their label . โ Another hint - manufacturing in the USA is now more important to consumers so if a company makes their products solely in the USA , it โ s usually a lot easier to find that out because they put it in big , bold letters . โ PRC โ means Made in China ( People โ s Republic of China ) Breakdown of Asian Cosmetics Standards Why โ Made in USA โ labeling is so complicated by Heesun Wee on CNBC One way to find deals on products made in the USA is you can s earch for Made in USA makeup on Overstock .

http://blyderivercanyonaccommodation.com/blyde%20river%20canyon.htm | BLYDE RIVER CANYON The Blyde River Canyon is the third largest canyon system and the largest vegetated or green canyon in the world . The canyon is situated along the Mpumalanga , Drakensberg Mountain Escarpment . The Blyde River Canyon was proclaimed a nature reserve in November 1965 , covers an area of 30 000 hectares and stretches from the Pinnacle rock near Thaba Tsweni lodge to Mariepskop Mountain in the North , close to the Kruger National Park . There are five main river systems that influence the Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve and play a very important role as water catchments for the Kruger National Park . The rivers are the Sabie , the Blyde , the Treur , Ohrigstad and the Olifants rivers . The is of great geological , botanical and wildlife interest to the tourist . Some of the oldest rocks in the world are exposed in this area and this includes rare sights , such as two Tufa waterfalls . Five of the South African Veld types occur in this area namely the Sour Montane Grassland , Subtropical Rainforest , Riparian Forest , Sour Bushveld and Mixed Bushveld . The Canyon has a rich and varied fauna and flora , influenced by the altitude , climate and soil conditions of the area . Some highly endangered species occur here such as the Blue Swallow and Taita Falcon . Most of these natural wonders can be viewed participating in activities done by vehicle or on foot , in the while using Thaba Tsweni Lodge as your base . is also of historical , anthropological and ethnological interest to the tourist . The presence of prehistoric man in the Canyon , has been confirmed by the discovery of middle stone - age implements , dating back some 50 to 100 thousand years ago ( BP ) . These implements have been found to be in the form of hand axes , flake and core tools . A visit to the echo caves and the San ( bushman ) rock shelter is essential , it โ s also an easy drive from Thaba Tsweni Lodge . There is further evidence that early stone - age San lived in the canyon , in the form of their monochromatic rock paintings found in the area . At a later period , the San were forced out of the Canyon by the immigration of the Sotho group of Negroid races from the north , which included the Bapedi tribe . Evidence of all stages of iron - age activity by the two main tribes in the area are to be found in the Blyde River canyon The two main tribes active in the area , were the Bapedi and Swazi tribes . They were engaged in numerous battles with each other , which adds to the interest of the area . The final battle , the battle of Moholoholo meaning the great great battle , was fought in 1864 around the mountain of Mariepskop . This Mountain has been named after the Mapulana Chief of the Bapedi tribe , Maripi Mashile , who assisted and led the Bapedi tribe to victory . The first white settlers to migrate to this area , arrived here about 1844 and brought about ownership of land and aggression between the African and White people . The arrival of white Settlers , brought about the discovery of gold for commercial purposes ( the Negroid races had been using gold for trade for many centuries ) . This discovery , of workable gold in the in the 1870 โ s , led to the production of the first Hydro - electrical power station in the Southern Hemisphere in 1910 . This power station called the Belvedere Power Station can still be viewed today , while participating in the Belvedere Hike which departs from the Bourke โ s Luck Potholes . It is interesting to note that the power station , which provided power to Pilgrims Rest and the surrounding mines , allowed Pilgrims Rest to have electricity before London in the United Kingdom .

http://bmet.wikia.com/wiki/Medical_Equipment_Management | in : Biomedical Engineering Technology Medical Equipment Management Technology management Medical Equipment Management Edit Share ( also known as biomedical equipment management , clinical engineering , or clinical equipment management ) is a fundamental part of managing a clinical / biomedical engineering department . It includes the business processes used in interaction and oversight of the medical equipment involved in the diagnosis , treatment , and monitoring of patients . The related policies and procedures govern activities from the selection and acquisition through to the incoming inspection , acceptance , maintenance , and eventual retirement and disposal of medical equipment . Medical equipment management is a recognized profession within the medical logistics domain . The Equipment Control & Asset Management Device Assets Inventory Financial Management Work Order Management Data Quality Management Personnel Management Quality Assurance Patient Safety Risk Management Hospital Safety Programs Radiation Safety Medical Gas Systems In - Service Education & Training Accident Investigation Safe Medical Devices Act ( SMDA ) of 1990 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) Careers in Facilities Management Service Contracts Contents show Equipment Control & Asset Management Every medical treatment facility should have policies and processes on equipment control & asset management . Equipment control and asset management involves the management of medical devices within a facility and may be supported by automated information systems ( enterprise resource planning systems from Lawson Software are often found in U.S. hospitals , and the U.S. military health system uses an advanced automated system known as the Defense Medical Logistics Standard Support ( DMLSS ) ) suite of applications . Equipment control begins with the receipt of a newly - acquired equipment item and continues through the item ' s Facilities or healthcare delivery networks may rely on a combination of equipment service providers such as manufacturers , third party services , in - house technicians , and remote support . Equipment managers are responsible for continuous oversight and responsibility for ensuring safe and effective equipment performance through full service maintenance . Medical equipment managers are also responsible for technology assessment , planning and management in all areas within a medical treatment facility ( e.g. developing policies and procedures for the medical equipment management plan , identifying trends and the need for staff education , resolution of defective biomedical equipment This industry is new , and there is not a clear line between IT and Biomed . Work Order Management Work order management involves systematic , measurable , and traceable methods to all acceptance / initial inspections , preventive maintenance , and calibrations , or repairs by generating scheduled and unscheduled work orders . Work order management may be paper - based or computer - base and includes the maintenance of active ( open or uncompleted ) and completed work orders which provide a comprehensive maintenance history of all medical equipment devices used in the diagnosis , treatment , and management of patients . Work order management includes all safety , preventive , calibration , test , and repair services Data Quality Management Accurate , comprehensive data is needed in any automated medical equipment management system . Data quality initiatives can help to insure the accuracy of clinical / biomedical engineering data . The data needed to establish basic , accurate , maintainable automated records for medical equipment management includes : nomenclature , manufacturer , nameplate model , serial number , acquisition cost , condition code , and maintenance assessment . Other useful data could include : warranty , location , other contractor agencies , scheduled maintenance due dates , and intervals . These fields are vital to ensure appropriate maintenance is performed Nomenclature : It defines what the device is , how , and the type of maintenance is to be performed . Common nomenclature systems are taken directly from the Emergency Care Research Institute ( ECRI ) Universal Medical Device Nomenclature System . Manufacturer : This is the name of the company that received approval from the FDA to sell the device , also known as the Original Equipment Manufacturer ( OEM ) Nameplate model : The model number is typically located on the front / behind of the equipment or on the cover of the service manual and is provided by the OEM . E.g. Medtronic PhysioControl โ s Lifepak 10 Defibrillator can actually be anyone of the following correct model numbers listed : 10 - 41 , 10 - 43 , 10 - 47 , 10 - 51 , and 10 - 57 . Serial number : This is usually found on the data plate as well , is a serialized number ( could contain alpha characters ) provided by the manufacturer . This number is crucial to device alerts and recalls . Acquisition cost : The total purchased price for an individual item or system . This cost should include installation , shipping , and other associated costs . These numbers are crucial for budgeting , maintenance expenditures , and depreciation reporting . Condition code : This code is mainly used when an item is turned in and should be changed when there are major changes to the device that could effect whether or not an item should be salvaged , destroyed , or used by another Medical Treatment Facility . Maintenance assessment : This assessment must be validated every time a BMET performs any kind of maintenance on a device . Several other management tools , such as equipment replacement planning and budgeting , depreciation calculations , and at the local level literature , repair parts , and supplies are directly related to one or more of these fundamental basics . Data Quality must be tracked monthly and all discrepancies must be corrected . Personnel Management This area is crucial to the daily work activities . Biomedical managers must be able to correctly assign staff for the right job . Having a team leader / veteran is important for mentoring staff that might not have as much experience . The monthly timesheet provides a method to record the time each person was available for work during the month . The timesheet provides a gross breakout of how the time was spent , and provides a basis for productivity analysis reports . It also provides the monthly man - hour accounting data . This data can be Regular hours Overtime hours Non - duty absence Duty absence Administrative support hours Technician training hours Supervisory hours Travel hours The following examples are calculations you can use for personnel management : Total hours = Regular hours + Overtime hours Hours available for work = Total hours - ( Non - duty absence and Duty absence ) Hours available for maintenance = Hours available for work - ( Administrative support hours , Technical training hours , Supervisory hours , and Travel hours ) Quality Assurance Quality Assurance is a way of identifying an item of supply or equipment as being defective . A good quality control / engineering program improves quality of work and lessens the risk of staff / patient injuries / death . Patient Safety Safety of our patients / staff is paramount to the success of our organizations mission . The Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations publishes annual lists detailing โ National Patient Safety Goals โ to be implemented by healthcare organizations . Goals are developed by experts in patient safety nurses , physicians , pharmacists , risk managers , and other professionals with patient - safety experience in a variety of settings . Patient safety is among the most important goals of every healthcare provider , and participation in a variety of committees and processes concerned with patient safety provides a way for biomedical managers and clinical engineering departments to gain visibility and positively affect their workplace . Risk Management This program helps the medical treatment facility avoid the likelihood of equipment related risks , minimize liability of mishaps and incidents , and stay compliant with regulatory reporting requirements . The best practice is to using a rating system for every equipment type . For example , a risk - rating system might rate defibrillators as considered high risk , general - purpose infusion pumps as medium risk , electronic thermometers as low risk , and otoscopes as no significant risk . This system could be setup using Microsoft Excel or Access program for a managers or technicians quick reference In addition , user error , equipment abuse , no problem / fault found occurrences must be tracked to assist risk management personnel in determining whether additional clinical staff training must be performed . Risk management for IT networks incorporating medical devices will be covered by the upcoming standard ISO / IEC 80001 . Its purpose is : " Recognizing that MEDICAL DEVICES are incorporated into IT - NETWORKS to achieve desirable benefits ( for example , INTEROPERABILITY ) , this international standard defines the roles , responsibilities and activities that are necessary for RISK MANAGEMENT of IT - NETWORKS incorporating MEDICAL DEVICES to address the KEY PROPERTIES " . It resorts some basic ideas of ISO 20000 in the context of medical applications , e.g. configuration , incident , problem , change and release management , and risk analysis , control and evaluation according to ISO 14971 IEC 80001 " applies to RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATIONS , MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturers and other providers of information technologies for the purpose of comprehensive RISK MANAGEMENT " . Hospital Safety Programs The Joint Commission stipulates seven management plans for hospital accreditation . One of the seven is safety . Safety includes a range of hazards including mishaps , injuries on the job , and patient care hazards . The most common safety mishaps are " needle - sticks " ( staff accidentally stick themselves with a needle ) or patient injury during care . As a manager , ensure all staff and patients are safe within the facility . Note : it โ s everyone โ s responsibility ! There are several meetings that medical equipment managers are required to attend as the organizations technical representative . The following are : Patient Safety Environment of Care Space Utilization Committee Equipment Review Board Infection Control Contracts Service contracts afford peace of mind regarding the maintenance of your medical equipment . A smart service contract does not start with what the vendor writes into it , but with what you as the equipment owner first know about your own collective needs . Before even sitting down to review written options , a hospital must have a thorough and detailed equipment inventory with individual device - performance histories and service records in order to navigate toward the best decision โ which may include opting to forgo a service contract on particular devices . Smart service contracts fill the gap if an in - house clinical / biomedical engineering department has insufficient test equipment , manpower or responsiveness , or technical skills ; or if an in - house program would require costly training or specialized test equipment ; or if it would simply cost more than using contractor services . What makes a contract smart ? Evaluating different contract types , knowing what services to include , what tricks to avoid , and how to negotiate additional discounts or training . The core offerings of a service contract hardly differ from offer to offer , so a keen eye is all the more necessary in differentiating among contracts to find which is the most economical , peace - of - mind - ensuring package for all concerned โ from the biomedical / clinical engineering department to department users and directors to physicians , and the c - level suite ( CFO , CEO , COO , etc ) . To properly understand and respond to your need for a service contract , involve all related teams from the beginning , which " It is important that the users of the equipment and tech services groups from biomed and IT standpoints have an opportunity to participate in the process , " says Joe Medina , AAS , biomed department supervisor at Exempla Good Samaritan Medical Center , Lafayette , Colo . Well - versed in organizing such open communication , Medina is part of a team that analyzes the need for service contracts at his facility . The team ensures that all necessary considerations and evaluations are addressed , including decisions ensuring construction , workflow , and temperature and humidity factors of For new equipment purchases , biomedical / clinical engineering needs to be involved in the vendor presentations , along with other department directors , to help encourage realistic vendor promises . The biomedical / clinical engineering department should in turn receive advance notice of new equipment purchases and items coming off warranty through regular attendance at materials management or environment of care meetings . Having sufficient notice allows for proper planning and research on contract options from device to device , preventing uneducated , hasty decision - making . Know what you need Regardless of vendor , we suggests that at the very least , any service contract for PM , calibration , repairs , or even one - time repair actions address and answer the following : Medical devices to be covered ; Whether parts and supplies are included ; Whether technical support is included ( telephone , remote diagnostics , etc ) ; Whether , if requested , a loaner will be provided , and at what cost , if any ; Estimated total cost ; Estimated travel and labor cost ; Contract coverage period ; Three different suggested sources or manufacturers ; Regular business hours ; Response time by contractor ; Frequency of service PMs and calibrations ; How the contractors will report to biomedical / clinical engineering ( a sign - in and out log , for example ) ; Circulation of service reports ; Accurate documentation , specifications , tolerances , and results for PMs , calibrations , and repairs ; HIPAA ' s compliance plan and violation consequences ; After - hours vendor response procedures for security purposes ; Site visit by vendor within 30 days of signing to cover installation plans ( layout , room preparation drawings , and instructions ) ; and Operator training from the manufacturer for both biomeds and users .

Photos by Fat , Fudger , and Daniel . This detailed how - to is one of the most popular features we โ ve ever had on the site , so we figured we โ d repost it in case any of you missed it the first time . If you โ ve ever wanted to paint your BMX frame ( or any other parts ) and make it look brand new again , this tutorial will definitely help you out . We โ ve also added some new tips in here that our readers left in the comments last time . This article should really be called โ How - To Paint A Frame And Not Make It Look Like Crap . โ Anyone can pick up a cheap can of spray paint and go to town on their bike , but getting a frame to look like it just came from the powder coat shop requires a bit more attention to detail and a few extra steps โฆ I โ ll start out by saying there is nothing wrong with getting a can of paint from the $ 0.99 store and giving your bike a quick coat with all the parts still on it . But obviously it wo n โ t look very good . This how - to is geared for the rider who wants a custom paint job or new color and wants the frame to look brand new . ( Or as close to new a possible . ) We started out with a Premium frame right out of the box . Lucky for us , this frame came in a matte / flat finish , making it a bit easier to paint and eliminating an extra step . Here we have a brand new Premium Lowpez LT frame , a pack of assorted grit sandpaper , some paper towels , a can of Rust - Oleum spray paint , and a can of Rust - Oleum gloss clear coat . The sandpaper , paint , and clear coat came up to a total of $ 9.50 . You can buy these items at places like Walmart or Home Deopt . Take everything off the frame that is removable such as gyro tabs , brake mounts , cable guides , seat clamp bolts , etc . Also take all the decals off the frame . If this leaves a sticky residue you can use a number of solutions to get it off . In the past I โ ve used gasoline , WD - 40 , and Goo - Gone . Just pour your solution onto the surface of the frame or onto a paper towel and scrub until it โ s all off . This is where we got to skip a step or two because our Premium Lowpez LT frame already had a matte finish โฆ If you have a gloss finish on your frame or have several coats of paint already on it you may want to either sand it with a rough grit paper to remove as much paint as possible or use a paint - removal product such as Aircraft Remover . This product is tricky , so read the instructions very carefully , protect your skin , and be prepared for a mess . If you use Aircraft Remover to remove glossy paint , preceded to use rough sand paper to finish removing any remaining paint , clean the frame , then apply two coats of primer . Since our Premium frame came in a flat black color , the matte finish acted as a primer , which helps the new paint stick to the metal surface . Finally you have a frame with nothing on it and your sand paper . For the Premium Lowpez frame with a matte finish I chose to start with 220 grit sand paper . Sand the frame just enough to scratch the surface . You are n โ t trying to remove all the existing paint ; you just want to scuff it up enough for a new coat of paint to stick . Be sure to get into all the hard to reach areas where the tubes meet . Once you have sanded the whole frame it will look like a dull version of whatever it looked like before . Do n โ t throw away the scraps of sand paper yet because you may need them later . After the frame is sanded it will have a layer of paint residue left over that you need to wipe clean with a wet paper towel , sponge , or cloth . Continue to wipe the frame until you do n โ t see any more paint powder on the towel or sponge . Now you need to let the clean frame dry completely . While the frame is drying you need to prepare the holes for painting . You do not want to get paint into anywhere that other parts need to go later . You can use paper towels to stuff into holes where removable brake mounts would go . If you do n โ t have removable brake mounts , cover the posts with painter โ s tape . You do n โ t want to get paint or overspray into areas of your frame that other parts will go later . So tape off the inside of the headset , bottom bracket , and seat tube . If it is n โ t perfect , do n โ t worry โ you โ ll be able to sand down and remove any overspray later . Once your frame is sanded , cleaned , dried , and taped off you are finally ready to paint it . You want to be in a wide - open space , preferably outside . We chose to hang the frame through the head tube with a broomstick . Get creative with this part but keep in mind you โ ll need to be able to see and move all around the frame and you will be getting overspray on anything within a few feet radius of the frame . Another option is to hang a string through the headtube We chose Rust - Oleum brand paint because it is good for metal surfaces . A generic brand paint wo n โ t spray as evenly and generally wo n โ t look as good . Read the fine print on the spray can for any warnings or special instructions you may need to consider before you begin . DO NOT hold down the spray tip continuously , creating a solid stream of paint . Use short bursts of paint as you quickly move the can back and forth in a straight line . If you hold the can in Move around the frame and spray from all directions and angles to make sure you cover the entire frame . Make sure to get into the cracks where hard to reach tubes meet lik under the dropouts and where the chainstays meet the bottom bracket . Concentrate on getting an even coat over the entire frame . Do n โ t try to put a thick , heavy coat of paint . It is best to do several thin , even coats . After your first coat of paint , let it dry for 15 - 30 minutes then apply a second coat . Again , thin coats work best . Wait another 15 - 30 minutes and apply a third and final coat of paint . Keep in mind that paint takes longer to dry in colder temperatures . It is ideal to paint the frame when it is warm outside . After the final coat of paint has dried and cured for several hours ( or even a full day ) you are ready to put the clear coat on it . The clear coat will help prevent rusting and protect the paint from minor dings and scratches . It will also help keep the gloss finish of the paint shining . Apply the clear coat just like you did the first coat of paint , waiting 15 - 30 minutes in between coats and applying a total of three coats . Clear coat tends to run and drip more than Leave the frame hanging to dry for at least 24 hours before you handle it or build it back up with parts . This is one of the hardest parts of painting a frame because riders often get anxious to build up their fresh frame when they see how good it looks . When the clear coat has totally cured , carefully remove any paper towels or tape you used to prevent overspray into areas like the bottom bracket , seat tube , brake mounts , etc . Slight overspray on the areas you tapped up is common even if you were careful to cover them . Use fine grit sand paper to gently sand away any unwanted paint that may make building the bike difficult . Put back on your gyro tabs , brake mounts , cable guides , and seat post clamp bolt . And now you are finished and ready to build up your freshly painted frame . Our Premium Lowpez LT frame looks great and we will test it out soon . Here are some tips from our readers that they brought up and posted in the comments the last time we posted this article . Feel free to leave your own thoughts or suggestions in the comments below ! โ To create and protect a flat finish , use a flat ( or matte ) spray paint and clear coat . The steps are all the same . The only thing that is different is the paint . Paints come in flat / matte , semi - gloss , or gloss . Choose the one you like the most and go with it . โ When using the spray paint , be sure that the tip is new and not clogged . A clogged tip will cause the paint to spray unevenly and may even cause โ blobs โ to spit out , which will be difficult and annoying to get rid of . โ An alternative to painting the frame yourself is to bring it to a local powder coat shop . You can look on yellowpages . com and search for โ Powder Coating . โ Ask them what color they are doing that week , and if you like the color ask them to do your frame while they have it set up . This will save you money because they do n โ t have to set up anything extra for you , and it is very minimal work for them . It may cost around $ 40 and should On the last post , there were some comments posted that said powder coating your frame will ruin it , causing the metals to fail , and the frame to break . While I did n โ t do any research on this issue ( after all , this is a painting tutorial ) , I did ask a few industry heads and all of them said that powder coating a frame is fine . Also , I know Dave Mirra has a powder coater of his own and often powder coats his bikes . So do n โ t # How - To # How - To Paint A Frame # Paint A BMX Frame # Painting BMX Parts Prev Next | [

I ' d be happy to share my experiences . 05 - 20 - 2009 , 12 : 48 PM 6 Brooks Beless Join Date : Mar 2007 Location : College Station TX Posts : 15 Gabe , I had a SLAP repair surgery on my labrum last January . I hate to say it , but my full recovery time was a little over year . The hardest part about coming back after surgery was the loss of flexibility and tightening of my shoulder . Make sure you are diligent in all of your PT as well as giving it appropriate time to heal and not trying to come back too quickly . Part of the reason it took over a year is because I started doing exercises while my shoulder was still tight that led to My best advice would be to stay positive and patient . It is much better to have a longer healthier recovery than try to rush it and cause more complications . However , that is easier said than done for people who love being active . 05 - 24 - 2009 , 09 : 13 AM 7 Gabe Mendoza Join Date : May 2008 Location : Ashburn VA Posts : 9 Mark , I think it was just over time . The one movement that really set it off was HSPU ' s on parallettes and muscle ups in excess of 30 . It finally got to the point where it was affecting my sleep so I decided to go see an orthopedic specialist . It so happens that my wife is an ortho PA in addition to one of my instructors . I did cortisone injection 2x followed by NSAIDs for 2 months and 6 weeks of no shoulder / overhead work following the two months of NSAIDs . The results were I start PT next week , and will be off this stupid sling in two weeks . I already have noticed my energy levels drop due to the inactivity . I have cleaned up my diet to compensate for being a couch potato for time . The shoulder feels good this week . The hardest part is not being able to pick up my 2 year old daughter . Heather , I would love to hear more about your experience . 05 - 25 - 2009 , 10 : 24 AM 8 Kyle Sattgast Join Date : Sep 2007 Location : Fairfax VA Posts : 28 I saw this post a week or two ago , but seeing as I had only one free hand to use I waited for my sling to come off . I ' m 4 weeks out from my slap tear repair . My left labrum was torn from about 11 : 45 for 1 : 30 , My orthro used two anchors . I started my PT two days after my surgery and have been progressing since . I ' m out my sling , still have limited motion . Pain comes and goes , nothing bad . 06 - 08 - 2009 , 09 : 55 AM 9 Andrea L Smith Join Date : Jun 2009 Location : Columbia SC Posts : 1 I had this same surgery and I am 6 weeks post op . I did not have as many screws in mine though ( only needed 3 ) . My doctor has been very aggressive and had me out of a sling 5 days post op . I started PT 10 days post op . I just started back running about a week ago and it still bothers me . The jarring is painful but if I keep my arm tucked in to my body it helps some . Mine was a posterior tear so I am limited on anything So far my recovery has gone pretty smoothly . I have been walking a lot , which helps with not being able to do other activities . My PT said that the timeframe to get back to normal varies from one person to another ( depending on your strength before your surgery , activity level , etc ) but can be anywhere from 2 months ( for a couch potato who never really uses the shoulder ) to 6 months . For a pitcher or swimmer it could be a year . I really noticed a turning point around 6 I hope this helps ! 06 - 10 - 2009 , 08 : 28 AM 10 Richard Walker Join Date : Apr 2008 Location : dallas tx I had a surgery for a labral tear in 2003 before I started Xfit . I also had some bone spurs removed at the time . My doctor recommended that I have it repaired tighter than it was when I injured it and that increased the recovery time . It took around a full year before I was back to playing volleyball . That said , when fully healed , it was more stable than before I injured it ! | [

http://boards.cannabis.com/threads/gout.35586/ | Forums > Medical Marijuana > Medicinal Cannabis and Health GOUT ! ! ! ! Discussion in ' Medicinal Cannabis and Health ' started by looseends Oct 17 , 2005 looseends Registered+ My husband had the worst gout attack ever . For those of you who do n ' t know what gout is - is an attack on the joints . It comes from eating red meats , drinking and stress . Used to be called the " rich man ' s " disease because the wealthy used to get it in the late 17th early 18th centuries . Anyhoo . . .took him to the docs and he got some meds for it , but it was n ' t like getting a nice bong hit and putting him to bed . Honey ' s doing much better now . Oct 17 , 2005 # 1 MeatRulz Registered+ My dad had gout in his foot and he was camped on the couch for days . . . MeatRulz # 2 onwardthroughthefog I ' ve had gout for almost 40 years . It ' s not a big deal . But honestly , many doctors really do n ' t know much about it . . . .they just prescribe for it . Gout is totally hereditary . It ' s not the " rich man ' s desease " that we were taught in our youth . I imagine if he checks with his family , he ' ll find grandparents , uncles and aunts , perhaps a parent who have it , or at least who have had the symptoms but never got diagnosed . The BEST treatment . . . . . . .take Allopurinol . It ' s a once daily tablet . All pain and swelling goes away in just a few days . It ' s a lifetime prescription , however . If I miss more than two or three days , I hurt like hell . If I miss a week or more , I can barely walk . But when I get back on it , no pain in a day or two . So I have learned to never travel or go anywhere without my meds . Allopurinol Incidentally , gout is caused by the kidneys producing too much uric acid , which collects in joints ( not the kind you ' re thinking of ) , mostly joints that have been injured in activities like sports . The acid is in crystal form , and it feels like razor blades scraping away at the joint . . . .which is , in essence , what is happening . The joints most often affected are big toes , knees , ankles , and hips . You can feel it in other areas , but those are most common Eating shell fish and drinking grain alcohol seem to trigger the worst flair ups . The enzyme that causes shell fish to grow the shell triggers the production of uric acid in the human body , when consumed . If he has gout , it ' s for life . There is no cure . But it ' s really no big deal . Just tell him to take his Allopurinol each day , and he ' ll never have another thought about it . Incidentally , MJ has a tremendously positive affect during the flair ups , and seem to greatly alleviate the pain . Until his Allopurinol gets into his blood stream in sufficient levels to make the problem go away completely , I recommend that he do no chores at all around the house , be waited on by his loving wife hand and foot , and that his bowl never be allowed to be empty . If he does get all of this , please tell me how so that I can arrange it for myself . But seriously , it I hope this helps . Good luck ! Onward ! onwardthroughthefog # 3 Like x 1 my husband takes endocin for his attacks , but thanks so very much for the info . i ' ll pass the info onto him . # 4 beachguy in thongs Is there a connection between Diabetes & Gout ? beachguy in thongs Oct 18 , 2005 # 5 beachguy in thongs said : Is there a connection between Diabetes & Gout ? Not that I ' m aware of . I have a lot of relatives with gout , but I ' m the only one with diabetes . Do you have one of these ? Onward ! Oct 18 , 2005 # 6 No . My Father has Diabetes . I heard something , somewhere about a possible connection between Diabetes and Gout . # 7 sMOkeY bOB my nana had diabetes and when i was younger i accidentally jabbed my self with her needle and i seriously thought i was guna get diabetes , ahh the mind of a child haha sMOkeY bOB Oct 20 , 2005 # 8 kvill Registered Lifestyle changes with gout ? I found your messages about gout and realize that the posts are a little old but maybe someone will still see and respond to this one . My husband has suffered from gout for several years and would take the anti - inflammatory to get it under control . That worked for a while and then it just started happening more and more frequently and not working as well . He finally went to doc and started allipurinol . I was excited to hear such great things about the results . : dance : The person who had it for . A lot . So , my question is can you go back to red meats and alcohol once you are maintenancing the gout ? Ca n ' t seem to find that addressed on the web . Thanks ! ! ! kvill Nov 10 , 2005 # 9 Monkey4Sale Is veal considered red meat ? cause it ' s not very red , it ' s more like pork . So if its not red meat , and does n ' t have the chemicals that are bad for you , you could eat lots of Veal . There are also game meats . People ( not specifically people with gout ) need to eat more types of meat . Game meats are good , duck , rabbit , hens , deer etc . . . there is all sorts of meat on the market , you just have Monkey4Sale Nov 10 , 2005 # 10 ladan Registered Gout is no fun , but I just retruned from the Doctor ' s office . He was kind enough to prescribe some vicodin to address the pain and believe me I ' m feeling no pain right now . Would love to try a bowl , but I ' m new to LA and lacking a connection . ladan # 11 Wrote a long post yesterday , did n ' t realize I could post directly to you - to make a long question short . . .can you live pretty normally after maintenancing the gout with allipurinol , like return to red meat and alcohol ? Your post was very helpful and encouraging , btw . Nov 11 , 2005 # 12 Zorrosbabe Veal = red meat ? & a gout question As veal is produced from baby calves ( redundant , I know ) I think it is considered red meat . Is gout related to the presence ( + or - ) / metabolism of iodine in the system ? I think it is why salt is now iodized . Zorrosbabe Zorrosbabe Nov 14 , 2005 # 13 dragonrider I know this is an ancient thread , but I was wondering if anyone on the boards these days has any first - hand experience with using MMJ to treat an acute attack of gout . Is it effective on the pain ? Does it work for the swelling ? dragonrider Feb 29 , 2008 # 14 McLovin I dont have REAL experience except I have been smoking for ten years now , and my dad has been smoking 40 years now . He is 59 ( since feb ) and has been getting occasional gout on and off for the past 5 years or so now . Everytime it swells his ankle / wrist up pretty bad and he stumbles around on it for a few days until its so bad he goes down to the VA and gets it drained and some meds . So to get back to the original question , We have used McLovin Mar 6 , 2008 # 15 stinkyattic CultiModerVatorAtor If you were to treat inflammation with MMJ , I ' d look to the relatives of the Ortega line , that are known to have anti - inflammatory qualities . Most of the crosses released by Subcool / TGA are related . . . Space Queen and Jillybean aka Space Jill spring to mind . Power Plant , which is common , hardy , and easy to grow , may also help inflammation but check the Jilly first IMO . stinkyattic Mar 6 , 2008 # 16 stinkyattic said : โ If you were to treat inflammation with MMJ , I ' d look to the relatives of the Ortega line , that are known to have anti - inflammatory qualities .

If you are as bad off as me , , , it really hurts to touch it so get someone to rub it in for you , it is agonizing but it is worth it . by the way I had a massage therapist massage my gout out of my foot and up into my calf once . Now when I get gout it gets the whole area all the way up into my calf , so do n ' t let it get pushed around , it kind of makes a new home there . Aleve works for me as far as swelling , and if I absolutely have to I will take a vicodin . Is allipurinal prescription only ? I do n ' t like the idea of taking a pill for the rest of my life but i would be interested in trying it . also , drinking lots of water helps me get better quicker . dragonrider said : I know this is an ancient thread , but I was wondering if anyone on the boards these days has any first - hand experience with using MMJ to treat an acute attack of gout .

Coming from the sub tropics in Australia I have no idea how hot or cold it will be on board during the cruise . What have experienced cruisers found re taking heavy coats , light jackets , raincoats , or just summer clothes on a cruise during this time of year . I appreciate your opinions on what to wear for shore excursions also . Will I need closed in shoes for warmth during the day on board ship , or will open sandals be appropriate ? : D I do n ' t mind taking many choices of clothing , but would like to avoid taking clothes or shoes that I will never wear during our time away . Many thanks Carol : ) lexilexi07 Cool Cruiser April 3 , 2009 47 posts Inverness , Scotland # 2 Posted With the heat that you are generally used to in Australia I would n โ t pack any clothes for hot or really warm weather , I think you should pack for the occasional mild day and I would bring a rain coat . Although I have not cruised in October I would think that when outside on the boat you would need to have a cardigan handy during the day and a warm coat at night . Hope this help or someone can add further to this . esspaniel February 16 , 2010 28 posts # 3 I was on a Mediterranean cruise last November and I ended up packing for all weather . The big thing in the fall is that it ' s the rainy season in the Med so definitely bring a raincoat . It luckily did n ' t rain but often the wind was a problem so I used my gortex jacket to cut the wind . I usually dressed in layers with a t - shirt or light sweater underneath and then a fleece jacket and then my gortex jacket overtop . I also brought a pair of light gloves which That being said , it could still be warm while you ' re there , especially in the more southern parts . The warmest day was in Athens . It was in the low twenties ( celcius ) and I wished that I had brought some capri pants with me as I got quite hot walking up to the Acropolis . I actually ended up rolling up my jeans to create my own . My thought would be that you should throw in a pair of shorts or capri pants or both . They wo n ' t take up much more space and if you need them , you ' ll be happy to have them there . Just as a disclaimer , I ' m from Canada so my idea of warm and yours could differ . But , I do get cold quite easily and I managed pretty well with what I brought . alibabacruisers December 30 , 2008 2,718 posts Melbourne , Australia # 4 Hi Precious ! We are from Melbourne going on Med cruise in Nov so we found a nice site that gives you an idea of weather in all those areas . It is wunderground . com On the site . . .You click on the the drop down box under region . Select the region ( Europe ) . It will then change the page and you select the country . Scroll down and it lists the cities within that country . You click on the city . Then on the next page scroll down to HISORY and ALMANAC and type in your desired date that you will be there and TA DA it shows average temp for that date and high and low . Hope this helps . It will be hard for us at that time leaving in heat and going to UK and Europe where it is cooler . Most that I have talked to say what these cruisers say . . .take jacket and raincoat . I will be taking some capris though too . Have a great time on your cruise and I hope you post a report when you get back ! Mr_Cruise July 16 , 2005 560 posts # 5 I will be taking my third Mediterranean cruise this coming October . My previous two trips in the region were late September through mid - October totalling over six weeks collectively ; during that six weeks of travels in that area around the same time frame , I experienced only one hour of rain ( Ibiza , Spain ) . Temperatures during the day ranged from 20 ( at sea ) - 40 ( Pompeii , Italy ) celsius . In the evening on deck , there is a very warm breeze still . You wo n ' t likely require ANY heavy clothing at all ( I ' m not taking any ) . With that said , the weather world wide has been rather unpredictable in recent years ( not following any trends / patterns etc ) , so taking a thin lightweight waterproof jacket ( just in case ) is advisable especially considering it wo n ' t take up much room in your luggage . Besides , if you happened to require a sweater at some point , then that ' s a great reason to go shopping while on Have a great trip ! January 4 , 2010 # 6 July 3 , 2010 What a great response to such a tricky question . It is wonderful to hear differing ideas from cruisers from all around the world . I think I ' ll go with capris and a rain jacket for sure , and add other layers from there . Thank you once again , especially from cruisers from Melbourne . Your suggestion and link are very helpful . I ' m thinking the Med in October will be like our winter here in Queensland . I look forward to posting a review when we return from our fun trip .

http://boatletteringtoyou.com/registration-numbers/ | Registration Numbers Boat Registration Numbers Design your own boat registration numbers right here . We have setup a step by step system providing you with the tools online to create your registration letters interactively . Any motorized boat in the United States must contain boat registration numbers on the hull of the boat . You will find that this information can vary slightly by state . In short most states require that the registration letters be no less than 3 inches tall and in block lettering . This will ensure compliance with local laws . Do I need to buy 2 ? All of our boat registration numbers are sold by the pair ! That means the price you see is for the pair of numbers . When you get a set you can put one on each side of the boat . Most people need a set so we go ahead and make that part of the price . Are the letters pre spaced ? All of our lettering orders come pre spaced with application tape meaning you do n ' t have to worry about applying each registration letter individually . The application tape covers the entire set of lettering like a big piece of masking tape allowing you to place it directly on your boat in one step . What is considered block letters ? Block lettering is typically a font like arial black . Strong thick text that is not script styled . Check your state and local laws as to see if block lettering is a requirement for your boat . If it is we recommend not using one of our fancy fonts and sticking with a registration number compliant font such as arial black . Other helpful information Be sure to review your individual state requirements for boat registration numbers . We have built our site to provide the most common compliant lettering people require . Visit our discounts page to view quantity price breaks and shipping discounts . Be sure to checkout our gallery for ideas and see some of our previous work .

http://boatus.org/fire-extinguishers/ | Fire Extinguishers We know we need them on board , but how many do we need and how do they work ? The Coast Guard requires boats to have at least one B - 1 marine fire extinguisher on board . Depending on the size of your boat you may need more than one . Boats less than 26 ' have to have at least one B - 1 fire extinguisher on board . Boats 26 ' - 40 ' need to have at least two B - 1 fire extinguishers on board . If the boat has a USCG approved fire extinguisher system installed for protection of the engine compartment , then the required number may be reduced . Please refer to the table below for the number of extinguishers required for your boat . Our recommendation is to have a tri - class ( 1A : 10BC ) fire extinguisher on board your boat . We also suggest you have more than the Coast Guard requires . Read More About This Topic Page 2 : Fire Extinguisher - Parts and Contents Page 3 : Fire Extinguisher - How to use a Fire Extinguisher Which Fire Extinguisher is Right for Me ? A tri - class dry chemical extinguisher will meet most boaters ' needs . If you have concerns about damage to your electronics or your engine compartment lacks a fixed well . As fire extinguishers are required on most boats , you most likely have one aboard . But chances are , you ' ve never needed to use one , and might not know the proper technique for using one . Take the time to read the directions on your fire extinguisher - you might be surprised about what it can and ca n ' t do . For more information on fire extinguishers , check out the Foundation Findings that we did in 2009 testing different extinguishers on different fires as well as testing volunteers on how quickly they could figure out how to use one .

How to obtain a moving violation : drive too fast . Watch rearview mirror for black and white sedan with strobing red and white lights . Pull to side of road , unroll window , wait . Snap of door opening , closing . Keys jangling , heels on pavement , rush of passing traffic , bitter exhaust . Blue uniform with hat , belt and holstered weapon . Hand on hip , officer bent at waist , stern face in window , smooth Old Spice cologne . " License and registration , please . " Tattle tale lights flash . Cars slow to pass . Children point from back seats , laugh : Speeder ! Pounding heart , tears . The shame . surreal , sardines - packed - in - a - can , Doha traffic too many cars for personal attention between officers and rule breakers In Qatar . How to obtain a moving violation : you have to look it up . Qatar Traffic Violation Website enter your Qatari id , license plate number , establishment ID download the phone app to view others ' violations while stuck in traffic In Doha , yellow and white cameras situated at intersections and along highways weed through the crush of sedans , SUVs , trucks , semis , motorcycles to photograph plate numbers and assign violations , such as : exceeding posted speed limit - 500 QR not giving adequate signals as required - 200QR driving a vehicle at abnormal low speed that may obstruct traffic movement without a good reason - 300QR motorist does not abide by the automatic traffic signals ( running a red light ) - 6000QR driving a vehicle in the wrong direction - 6000QR Link : traffic offenses that can be settled by paying a fine Caught on Camera Somewhere in Doha Bob or Cindi ( but probably Cindi ) : November 9 , 2013 , 7 : 06 AM , Al Bidda ( per website ) or the Corniche ( per agency ) : " The motor vehicle ' s operator exceeds the maximum speed limit on the road " There is no summons , notification , letter in the mail . No flashing lights , jangling keys or holstered guns . Nobody knocks on your door . Errant behavior is recorded on the website and stays there until the fee is paid . Whether you ' re a bad driver , in the wrong place at the wrong time or somewhere else altogether , it ' s possible to rack up violations and fees while living in blissful ignorance - working , shopping , taking the kids to school . As long as you do n ' t try to leave the country . registered vehicle owners with unpaid violations are stopped at the gate Since the infraction is assigned to the car , it ' s the registered owner ' s responsibility to review the website for violations and pay fines . This is a benefit to expats who lease a vehicle as the rental agency ' s name is attached to the car , not the driver ' s . A service agent regularly checks the traffic website and emails request for payment . " Kindly settle the attached traffic ticket . . . " - email to Bob from Doha based car rental company , three weeks later Suppose , like one of Bob ' s coworkers , you receive notification about a violation that ostensibly occurred on a day , place , time in which you and your car were n ' t present . Nobody else drives your car . You never speed . There ' s too much traffic on that road at the stated time for anyone ( except the young men in dish - dasha driving white Suburbans ) to " exceed the posted limit .

December 14 , 2013 at 2 : 01 PM Charles W . Hedrick said . . . You mean to say that they do n ' t take away your license for excessive violations ? So Qatari drivers who never left the country would never lose the privilege of driving ? How does one lose one ' s license ? December 14 , 2013 at 4 : 12 PM Cindi Kennaley There is n ' t a rule I know of that results in loss of a person ' s dl ( like points on a license , for example ) . I do know if a person loses sponsorship ( ie , employment ) you ca n ' t be a resident anymore . . .and only residents can have a Qatari dl . And in countries where the government has more power than the people ( America , are you listening ? ) it ' s possible to wake up one morning and learn you no longer have permission December 15 , 2013 at 7 : 10 AM Cindi Kennaley @ Peggy : pretty funny ! ! @ Sheri : Thanks for the nice words !

http://bobs-burgers.wikia.com/wiki/Calvin_Fischoeder | in Characters Secondary Characters Males Calvin Fischoeder English Bobs Burgers character Calvin Fischoeder Gender Male Age 63 Occupation Entrepeneur Relatives Felix Fischoeder brother Behind the Scenes First Sheesh Cab Bob Voice Kevin Kline Bob your children are refusing to acknowledge me Calvin Fischoeder Calvin Fischoeder more commonly referred to as Mr Fischoeder is Bobs wealthy and odd landlord He owns Bobs Burgers and many other properties on Ocean Avenue He also owns the Wonder Wharf amusement park the Wonder Wharf Wonderdogs baseball team and some other shady side businesses In some episodes he has an antagonistic role such as Torpedo An Indecent Thanksgiving Proposal Wharf Horse or How Bob SavesDestroys the Town Part I The Deepening and The Oeder Games Contents show Profile Appearance Personality Mr Fischoeder is the more dominant of the two Fischoeders shown by both his greater age and how others including Felix usually respect him more than his brother While he has been shown frequently and rather meanly teasing Felix he obviously cares deeply about him as shown by the fact that he was willing to pay 4000 to bribe Bob to cover Felixs attempt to murder both of them He does not have a strong sense of morals and is willing to both cut corners and blame other people to protect himself or someone he cares about He has strong familial connections and his relatives have a large influence on him both he and Felix are shown to have cared about their father and each other He owns many of the properties around town including the rental property next to Bobs Burgers Jimmy Pestos Pizzeria the baseball stadium and team the Wonder Wharf amusement park etc He generally refuses to eat his tenants food with the exception of Douchie Sushi He also has some shadier side businesses that include cab driving gambling and possibly abortions His father was an immigrant of unknown nationality Mr Fischoeder wears a white suit an eye patch and sometimes a white cape and drives around town in a golf buggy with the license plate BIGFSCH Louise describes him as being one white cat away from being a supervillain He had considered not renewing Bobs lease until he tried Bobs most difficult specialty burger the Meatsiah after which he declared Bob a Beefartist Mr Fischoeder orders blueberries which are a cover for buying marijuana from Cooper and Beverly in Bob Fires the Kids In An Indecent Thanksgiving Proposal he appears when he has the Belcher family pose as his family so he can impress a woman who was once his flame He also appears in The Deepening when he buys a mechanical shark that was once used for a shot in a movie He begins showing negligence as soon as the shark goes on the loose and begins to destroy the city In Topsy he and Linda s sister Gayle sing a duet for Louise called Electric Love a song based fictionally on the relationship between Topsy the elephant and Thomas Edison Though often an antagonist in the series Calvin Fischoeder becomes a more sympathetic character in Wharf Horse where his eccentric nature pales in comparison to his brother Felix s darker more violent personality The inversion of the colors of Felixs outfit may be a physical manifestation of his true nature while Calvin cuts corners such as with the Wonder Wharf rollercoaster and limits Bob financially he never directly tries to harm anyone Felix on the other hand is extravagant and tries to be likable but is ultimately concerned with his own desires to the point where he will try to hurt or even kill anyone who prevents him from getting his own way Story Relationships Appearances Season One Appearances ใผ ใผ ใผ ใผ ใผ Sheesh Cab Bob ใผ ใผ ใผ Burger War ใผ Lobsterfest Torpedo

article Calvin FischoederGallery Trivia Mr Fischoeders first appearance was in Sheesh Cab Bob although this is going by broadcast order In production order he was given a proper introduction along with several other characters in Burger War His last name is a pun on fish odor In Ambergris Mr Fischoeders brother Felix appears It is also stated in this episode that Felix took out Mr Fischoeders eye He often abuses or mistreats the restaurant by using the facilities without ordering anything or coming in simply to get a good reception on his smartphone Not only does Mr Fischoeder have little to borderline no morals but several episodes have revealed that hes not only not above cutting corners and attempting to blameframe others but hes also been shown to be not above bribery extortion and even violence in attempts to get his way A classic example of this is seen in the episode Torpedo where near the end of the episode Bob tries to explain Gene why Torpedo is not the best role model Fischoeder first starts off by threatening to reduce the amount of money that he gives to Bob before finally resorting A classic example of where Fischoeder not only attempts to frame Bob but also demonstrates that he has little to no morals is in the episode The Deepening where he not only makes everyone believe that Bob was the idea man behind the shark but even goes as far to say that Bob poopood his safety concerns when in reality Fischoeder had very little to ultimately no safety concerns at all and didnt really care about the safety of the town Mr Fischoeder has also been shown to be not above vandalism and even stealing as seen in the beginning of the episode Burger Wars where he is seen throwing things such as bricks rocks and even loaded glass bottles at peoples property In the episode Teena Witch it is revealed that Mr Fischoeder is the one responsible for Bobs jackolanterns disappearing In both of these incidents if Fischoeder was a real landlord he either wouldve been arrested or gotten into very serious trouble with law and potentially even risked losing his title as landlord as a result He was once married for a week as revealed in The Kids Run the Restaurant Mr Fischoeder is voiced by actor Kevin Kline who has won an Academy Award and 3 Tony Awards He is the only performer to have won either award to voice a character on Bobs Burgers Enjoys watching Worlds

The Kids Run Away Gallery Main article : Linda Belcher / Gallery Archer version Trivia Bob and Linda ' s wedding anniversary is September 3rd . Linda uses the " 9 is divisible by 3 " method to remember their anniversary date . They were apparently married at City Hall , rather than in a religious ceremony . A major source of inspiration for Linda from John Roberts was his mother , and him mocking / making fun of her when he was a child . She and Tina are both voiced by a male . Linda has a crush on Tom Selleck and wants her ashes thrown in his face . Linda ' s birthday is June 3rd . It is suggested in Seaplane ! Linda is 45 , when Upskirt Kurt states his seaplane is 45 , looks 30 , and handles like she ' s 18 . Linda states if she were to die today she wants that on her tombstone . Linda was a member of the class of 1988 at Cardinal Gennaro High School Linda used to be engaged to Hugo , but broke it off after being unsatisfied with hanging out with him and had started seeing Bob after she accidentally got her engagement ring caught in his moustache . Her eyes do n ' t completely close ( " Turkey in a Can " ) . She might be an alcoholic , but more likely she just likes drinking . There are many references throughout the series to her being fond of drinking ( to the point that the kids joke about it ) and seemingly having a high tolerance . She has a clear preference for wine and mixed drinks , and only seems to drink out of the restaurant or after - hours . It is assumed that she may also be a high - functioning alcoholic , which is an alcoholic that still maintains jobs and relationships . Had jury duty on St . Patrick ' s Day and wore a green blazer in celebration . She later gave it to Tina to wear to her Wagstaff School News audition . Tina now currently wears it for her " Tina Table " segment on the program despite it blending in the with chroma - key screen . ( " Broadcast Wagstaff School News " ) Her favorite toilet is at The Royal Oyster Hotel . She got into the habit of peeing while standing up and " likes it " , as mentioned in " The Deepening " . She wears pink underwear as painted in Art Crawl and seen in several later episodes . It ' s implied by Teddy that the areolas around her nipples are brown and asymmetrical in " Beefsquatch " . Linda told Bob that she was pregnant with Louise on the Ferris Wheel at Wonder Wharf , to which he replied with long , loud screaming . It is implied that Linda wore braces when she was growing up ( " Slumber Party " ) . It is implied that Linda wears glasses because she is nearsighted as in " Housetrap " she raises her glasses to try and look at Helen ' s ring in a picture up close . Has underwear over thirty years old ( " Hawk & Chick Does n ' t have a passport ( " Hawk & Chick Was fourth - grade hoop shoot champion ( " Stand By Gene Her favorite Meryl Streep movie is It ' s Complicated ( " Stand By Gene Loves the zoo ( " Wag the Hog Sleeps with a mouthguard ( " Secret Admiral - irer Has recurring dreams about meeting Tyra Banks ( " Secret Admiral - irer Linda has a large wart on her right hand " A River Runs Through Bob Linda ' s worst fear is Gene turning into a wolf " She used to throw rocks at cars , mentioned in Slumber Party . She did it so much that some people stopped driving down her street . She used to wing it at her book reports and for her report " The Catcher and the Rye " , she used a catchers ' mitt and a loaf of rye bread . She got an " F " on it because she did n ' t back - covered it . She used Louise ' s volcano science fair project as a wine coozie .

http://boca-raton-cpa.com/how-to-establish-florida-residency/ | How To Establish Florida Residency Everyone knows that Florida is a great place to live , with its warm climate , beautiful beaches , and sunny skies . And what many people also know , it โ s a great place to retire , or just start fresh in a new and uplifting location . Why ? In a word , taxes , or better said , the lack thereof ! Florida has no personal income tax , which means you can keep six to thirteen percent more of what you earn , especially compared to such high tax states as New York or California Florida has no estate tax , so when you die , more can be passed on to your heirs . But establishing Florida residency is just half of the story . While there are specific rules for establishing domicile in Florida , you also have to take steps to make sure that you will no longer be considered a resident of the state you are departing . There have been cases where clients have been considered to be residents of Florida AND the state they departed ( New York State is famous for taking this position ) . That means the former state may continue to make claims for state income or estate taxes , including filing liens or garnishing Many Northern states will apply both a โ Statutory Resident Test โ as well as a โ Domiciliary Test โ . The Statutory Resident Rule is the one that most people who relocate to Florida are familiar with . This is the perception that as long as one lives in Florida โ 183 days or more โ then Florida residency is established ( and the departed state residency is terminated . But , it is not that easy . The burden is on you to prove the number of days you spent outside of your former state . For example , states can challenge your location days by reviewing charge card or telephone records . Where the Statutory Residency Test focuses on just your residence and the number of days in each state , the Domiciliary Test focuses on five distinct areas including your physical residence , the number of days spent physically within each state , your place of business , connections that are โ near and dear โ to you , and finally , the location of your family members . These rules can be complex and subtle , so proper advice is key . We can help you navigate the transition of your business from your current state to Florida , by guiding you through the maze of entity selection , tax structures , employment and sales taxes , business registrations and licensing , residency issues , and all of those details that can seem overwhelming . With over 32 years of experience , let Caruso and Company , CPA , PA help you make more money , and keep more of what you make . Call us today for a free consultation , and browse our website for more detail on the services we offer and see what some of our clients have to say . | [

http://bodyecology.com/articles/4-steps-to-naturally-eliminate-gas-and-bloating | 4 Steps to Naturally Eliminate Gas and Bloating Products that may interest you : [ product id = " 13 " ] There are two places where intestinal gas can collect : in the large intestine and in the small intestine . Some gas is always produced during the digestive process . What happens to this gas ? It is absorbed into the bloodstream and eventually exhaled . It is released . This is known as flatulence or just " gas . " It is recycled by other microbes in the gut . It accumulates and creates pressure against the intestinal wall . If your body is producing excessive gas , this is sign that large quantities of food are going through the gut undigested . Dr . Fernando Azpiroz of the Hospital General Vall d ' Hebron in Barcelona , Spain , points out that some intestinal gas is entirely normal . As part of the digestive process , everyone experiences gas in the digestive tract , which includes the esophagus , stomach , small intestine , and large intestine . 1 If your inner ecosystem is healthy , your body can evacuate this gas without any discomfort . It ' s when gas causes pain and other symptoms that it becomes a problem . If gas is a chronic problem , your gut could be lacking the enzymatic power to support the small and large intestines . Body Ecology Assist Full Spectrum Enzymes can supplement brush border enzymes and stoke your digestive fire . Gas in the Small Intestine Gas produced in the small intestine typically means something entirely different than gas produced in the large intestine . Because gas in the small intestine has nowhere to go , it easily accumulates and puts pressure against the intestinal wall . When enough pressure builds , your body reads this as pain . This mostly occurs somewhere above the belly button , where much of the small intestine is found . Symptoms may include : Abdominal bloating Cramping Intense pain The small intestine should be relatively free of microbial communities that can create gas . Thus , gas in the small intestine could indicate that something has gone awry . Small intestinal gas is a pretty sure indication of bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine โ otherwise known as SIBO ( small intestine bacterial overgrowth ) Mark Pimentel , Director of the Gastrointestinal Motility Program at Cedars - Sinai Medical Center , discovered that gas produced by bacteria in the small intestine might cause either constipation or diarrhea . 2 Research published in the journal Gastroenterology & Hepatology asserts that while SIBO is still poorly understood in the medical community , it is more prevalent than ever . Patients with SIBO may experience mild to severe symptoms , as serious as chronic diarrhea , weight loss , and malabsorption . Effective SIBO treatment must address the underlying cause , offer nutritional support , and treat bacterial overgrowth . 3 Gas in the Large Intestine Gas in the large intestine is a normal byproduct of large microbial communities . Gas in the large intestine is mainly expressed as flatulence . Typically , there is little pain associated with gas in the large intestine . Any sensation we feel is usually its movement down the tract until it eventually is released . Remember , the microbes in our gut form strong communities , mostly within the large intestine . So , some amount of gas or flatulence is normal . However , if your body is producing excessive gas , this is sign that large quantities of food are going through the gut undigested . It can also be a sign of fermentation , or essentially the rotting of food within the gut . What does this mean ? It could mean a number of things , and the reason will be different for each person : Your body does not have the enzymatic power to digest food . You are consuming too much of one food , which can overwhelm all the elements necessary to fully break down food material . In this case , following the Body Ecology Principle of 80 / 20 is especially useful because it means that your digestive system will have all the tools its needs to properly handle foods . According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases , exciting new research into some digestive conditions ( like IBS ) that may cause gas is on the horizon . A medical probiotic has been tested for safety and efficacy in the phase 1 Safety Study of Probiotics in Adults with Irritable Bowel Syndrome , funded by the NIH . An acupuncture / moxibustion clinical trial for IBS , also funded by the NIH , is in progress . The results from these trials may give patients the tools to play a more active role in their 5 How to Remedy Gas and Bloating in 4 Steps Find the source In the case of gas , it is important to first determine where the gas is being made : If it is produced in the small intestine , there will be intense abdominal discomfort because gas is trapped in the small intestine . Small intestinal gas indicates bacterial overgrowth . If gas is produced in the large intestine , there is flatulence . Flatulence tells us to look at diet and food combining principles . Use Body Ecology principles Following the 7 Principles of the Body Ecology Diet , especially the Principle of 80 / 20 , may be enough to control excessive gas in both the large intestine and the small intestine . Starve bad bacteria If there is still too much gas produced in the small intestine , you may want to try to starve the bacteria that have taken over this area . This means to : Eliminate sugars from the diet . Hold off on adding a prebiotic supplement to your diet or consuming too many soluble fibers from food . Replenish good bacteria Adding beneficial bacteria and increasing enzymatic power in the gut assist both the small and large intestine : Include fermented foods in the diet . The good bacteria found in fermented foods will actually stimulate the activity of brush border enzymes . Supplement with brush border enzymes , like Body Ecology Assist Full Spectrum Enzymes Because brush border enzymes are active mostly at night , one of the best things you can do is drink a few ounces of coconut water kefir or InnergyBiotic before bed with one capsule of Full Spectrum Enzymes What To Remember Most About This Article : Gas in the small intestine is different from gas in the large intestine . Gas in the small intestine will build up and put pressure on the intestinal wall to cause bloating , cramping , and pain . For this reason , gas in the small intestine could be an indication of bacterial overgrowth , also called SIBO . To remedy gas naturally , use these simple steps : Determine where the gas is being made โ in the small or large intestine . Follow the principles of the Body Ecology Diet to control gas in the small and large intestines . Starve bacteria in the small intestine to stop gas from being produced . Add beneficial bacteria to increase the enzymatic power of the gut improving digestion in both the small and large intestines .

http://bodyecology.com/articles/probiotics_essential_vitamin_k.php | Vitamin K : Why Probiotics are Essential to Vitamin K - and Why You Likely Need More of Both Getting enough vitamin K depends on how well you are digesting and assimilating your foods AND how much healthy microflora populate your intestines . Find out how to get your K today . Vitamin K is a fat - soluble vitamin that plays a role in blood clotting . Vitamin K has many benefits , including : Encourages the flow of urine Relieves menstrual cramps Enhances liver function Increases vitality and longevity May have a role in protecting against osteoporosis or maintaining strong bones in the elderly 1 Researchers believe that vitamin K may act on a protein thought to be the strongest inhibitor of arterial calcification ( Gla - Protein or MGP ) . In a recent animal study , high doses of vitamin K were found to prevent or reverse arterial calcification ( by approximately 40 % ) AND improve arterial elasticity after 6 weeks of supplementation . 2 Vitamin K also has antioxidant qualities , protecting against free radical damage . In fact , one study showed that the antioxidant effect of vitamin K can protect against fetal brain injury . 3 Sources of Vitamin K There are two types of vitamin K : phylloquinone ( vitamin K 1 ) , synthesized by plants and menaquinone - n or MK - n ( vitamin K 2 ) , manufactured by the beneficial bacteria in your intestines Vitamin K - Kale , collards , romaine lettuce , cauliflower , spinach , broccoli and egg yolks are high in vitamin K . You can add kale or collards combined with cabb age to make your cultured vegetables . Cauliflower and broccoli are the starring vegetables in two delicious and highly recommended soups in the Body Ecology Diet book : Broccoli with Fresh Fennel Soup ( page 206 ) and Creamy Dilled Cauliflower Soup ( page 204 . ) Steamed to perfection and chilled , they are great in a salad of Romaine lettuce and other mixed greens and herbs . Keep in mind that cruciferous vegetables should be cooked or fermented to avoid their thyroid suppressing effect . For more information , read : Why You Need to Cook these Vegetables for Maximum Nutrition Vitamin K - Animal meat and fermented foods and drinks are good sources of vitamin K Do You Have Enough K ? Your body does not store vitamin K , so without regular dietary intake , you could become deficient The recommended dietary allowance is 60 - 80 mcg / day and this dietary intake is especially important for people on warfarin or other oral anticoagulants that inhibit blod clots ( these are vitamin K antagonists ) . Blood type O individuals lack several clotting factors in their blood , so adequate intake of vitamin K is especially important . Another reason you may not have enough vitamin K is if your inner ecosystem is out of balance . A healthy inner ecosystem is thriving with beneficial microflora ( bacteria , also called probiotics ) that live in your intestines and keep your immunity strong . When your inner ecosystem is out of balance , pathogenic bacteria can overpower the good bacteria in your intestines , setting the stage for illness and disease . The healthy microflora in your inner ecosystem also aid in digestion of all the foods you eat , ensuring that you get the vitamins and minerals in them . Now that you know that Vitamin K is in all the food sources mentioned above , you also want to be certain that you are digesting those foods . Besides making Vitamin K directly , the microflora ensure that you digest it . Since vitamin K is obtained from your diet ( K1 and K2 ) and vitamin K2 is manufactured by beneficial bacteria - and your body does n ' t store vitamin K - it ' s important that you have plenty of beneficial bacteria and are assimilating the nutrients from your food . You may need more dietary vitamin K if you : Bruise easily Bleed excessively ( nosebleeds , bleeding gums , blood in urine or extremely heavy menstrual bleeding could be indicators ) Experience liver or gallbladder problems Have digestive problems , especially malabsorption Adequate dietary intake and building a healthy inner ecosystem full of probiotics ( healthy microflora ) can help you get the vitamin K your body needs . Probiotics and Vitamin K To aid in digesting and assimilating vitamin K and to populate your intestines with the good guys that make vitamin K , probiotics are key . The best source of probiotics are fermented foods and drinks . These superfoods build your healthy inner ecosystem , boosting your immunity . While they have tremendous benefits for your inner body , they also have benefits for your appearance . To learn more , read : Want to Look Younger and Better ? 8 Reasons Why Probiotics are an Essential Tool Probiotic supplements do n ' t even come close to comparing with probiotic - rich fermented foods , since fermented foods contain many more times the beneficial bacteria . Plus , the fact that the microflora travel down your digestive tract , escorted by food , helps ensure that they survive stomach acid and digestive enzymes in greater numbers . Here are some great fermented foods and drinks to boost your vitamin K , build your immunity , correct digestion and keep you looking young : Young Coconut Kefir - high in minerals , Young Coconut Kefir is a great do - it - yourself fermented drink .

http://bodyecology.com/articles/too_much_fiber_symptoms_part_2.php | Too Much Fiber ? 2 Ways Your Gut Will Tell You 20 to 40 grams of fiber daily are an essential part of a healthy diet . But if you ' re starting to eat more fiber , you may be experiencing some digestive distress . Though common , the symptoms of too much fiber in the diet should n ' t be brushed off as " regular " digestive woes . Gradually increasing your fiber intake can help to reduce the gas and bloating that come with some high - fiber foods . And while eating fermented vegetables , made with the Veggie Culture Starter , could cause similar symptoms at first as the healthy microflora move in , these gut reactions should only be temporary . Inoculating the gut with living probiotics is part of the healing process . A high - fiber diet has been linked to more successful aging . Too Much Fiber ? 2 Easy - to - Miss Warning Signs from Your Gut Gas and bloating can be a common byproduct of upping your fiber intake . Add fermented foods and drinks to the mix , and you might even say that your symptoms are worse , not better . Making healthy changes takes time , and symptoms like gas and bloating could initially be part of your healing process . In fact , flatulence and bloating can be caused by too much or too little fiber . If you are adding fermented foods and drinks like raw , cultured vegetables and Passion Fruit Biotic to your diet , you could also experience flatulence and bloating due to the action of healthy microflora battling the pathogenic microflora in your intestines . Of course , it always helps to have some guidance on why things might be happening . This is especially true when you experience gas pain and bloating . Keep in mind that while some gurgling in your stomach and intestines is normal , you do n ' t have to be in pain . How to Increase Your Fiber Intake , According to Body Ecology Principles The Principle of Step - by - Step Any time you begin something new ( like eating more fiber - rich foods , trying fermented foods and drinks , or starting to exercise ) , it ' s very important to go slowly and make small changes over time . The Principle of Step - by - Step encourages you to gradually increase your fiber intake over a period of time . If you currently get 10 to 15 grams of fiber per day , try to increase your daily intake by 2 or 3 grams and see how you feel . If you have no digestive distress , go ahead and add another 2 or 3 grams of fiber to your diet . Before you know it , you ' ll be getting a full 20 to 40 grams per day with minimal gas and bloating . The Principle of Balance Remember , too , that your body will always seek balance . Honor your body ' s own wisdom and physical cues . It wants to heal and has the ability to do so , if you step out of its way and listen . Some days you might eat more fiber , and some days you might eat less . Trust that your body will let you know what it needs for healing and nutrition . The Principle of Uniqueness Every person is unique and has different nutritional needs , regardless of established guidelines . You may find that you need more or less fiber than someone else , and that ' s OK . You are an " experiment of one , " and you may need some time to find out what exactly works for you . Even more interesting , your body ' s needs may change over time . If you want to introduce fiber and fermented foods and drinks at the same time , make sure you give your body time to adjust and take it step - by - step . Keep in mind these principles , and you ' ll give your body the nourishment it needs to stay healthy and strong . Ready , Aim โ Fiber So , you ' re ready to add fiber - rich foods ( slowly ) to your diet and want to do it without having digestive pain or bloating ? Here are some guidelines to get you started : Gradually build up your fiber intake . Increase your water intake as you increase fiber consumption . Exercise more to encourage peristaltic action in your colon . Yoga , walking , and rebounding all help your colon function . Try colon hydrotherapy to hydrate your colon and teach your colon how to contract again . Too much soluble fiber can cause flatulence . If you ' re eating a lot of nuts , flax seeds , and carrots , then you might experience excess gas . If you experience constipation , then try a magnesium supplement . Peter Gilliam ' s CALM or Magna Calm are two powders that can be taken by adults and children to help with optimum bowel function . Other types of magnesium supplements that Body Ecology recommends are : Magnesium Chloride from the Pain and Stress Center in Texas and Magesium Asparate capsules from your health food store . Take 400 - 1600 mg per day to help you relax and to help your bowels move on a regular basis . The Unsung Hero of Good Gut Health Because of its " dirty job , " fiber gets very little credit . It ' s easy to forget the big health and disease - fighting benefits of this plant substance . Fiber - rich foods help ease elimination and enhance detoxification and can protect you from cancer , heart disease , and diabetes . 1 , 2 , 3 A high - fiber diet has also been linked to more successful aging , according a 2016 study out of Australia . 4 You do n ' t have to be afraid of getting too much fiber . The key is to begin adding fiber - rich foods to your diet as it works best for your body , in a way that is comfortable and nourishing . And as you build your gut health with daily fermented foods and drinks , your tolerance for fiber may increase . Beneficial bacteria create a healthy community in the gut that supports the whole digestive process , from start to finish .

What To Remember Most About This Article : Are you getting your 20 to 40 grams of fiber a day to maintain good health ? As you start to up your fiber intake to meet this goal , you may notice several symptoms that arise . Gas and bloating are some of the most common signals sent from your gut , alerting you that you โ re eating more fiber than your body can handle . Introducing fermented foods and drinks like cultured vegetables and Passion Fruit Biotic may initially cause digestive discomfort , including gas and bloating , as your body adjusts and builds healthy communities of bacteria in the gut - - but these symptoms should only be temporary . Improving gut health can improve fiber digestion over the long - term . As you strengthen digestion slowly but surely , it helps to remember the Body Ecology Principle of Step - by - Step : Increase fiber intake gradually by a few grams a day to see how your digestive system can handle it . The Principle of Balance also says to honor your body โ s own wisdom and natural cues ; your body will let you know when it โ s ready to digest more fiber . And according to the Principle of Uniqueness , we are all unique and have different nutritional needs , regardless of the official guidelines . Figure out what works for your unique gut and recognize that your body โ s fiber needs may change over time . REFERENCES : Maryam S . Farvid , A .

http://bodyecology.com/articles/top_6_fabrics_you_should_avoid_wearing.php | The Top 6 Fabrics You Should Avoid Wearing and Why Every day and night we are surrounded by fabrics . From the clothing we wear to the sheets on our beds to upholstery on our furniture or car seats , these are the fabrics of our lives . Fabrics are around us nearly all the time , but did you know that your material choices could either help or harm your health ? Material World Not that long ago , people stuck to the natural fibers : wool , cashmere , cotton , silk , linen , and hemp . But if you take a look at your clothing labels today , you are likely to find materials like rayon , polyester , acrylic , acetate and nylon . Additionally , your shirts and slacks may be treated to be wrinkle - free or stain resistant on top of that . These technological advances in fabrics may make our lives simpler , but at what cost ? Chemically treated natural and synthetic fabrics are a source of toxins that adversely affect your health and the health of the planet . Here ' s our short list of fabrics to avoid , and the healthy ones to pick instead . Top 6 Toxic Fabrics 1 . Polyester is the worst fabric you can buy . It is made from synthetic polymers that are made from esters of dihydric alcohol and terpthalic acid . 2 . Acrylic fabrics are polycrylonitriles and may cause cancer , according to the EPA . 3 . Rayon is recycled wood pulp that must be treated with chemicals like caustic soda , ammonia , acetone and sulphuric acid to survive regular washing and wearing . 4 . Acetate and Triacetate are made from wood fibers called cellulose and undergo extensive chemical processing to produce the finished product . 5 . Nylon is made from petroleum and is often given a permanent chemical finish that can be harmful . 6 . Anything static resistant , stain resistant , permanent press , wrinkle - free , stain proof or moth repellent . Many of the stain resistant and wrinkle - free fabrics are treated with perfluorinated chemicals ( PFCs ) , like Teflon . SHOP PRODUCTS When you pick out your clothes , you probably do n ' t think about their toxic load on your body and the environment . But most fabrics that make up our clothes , upholstery and linens are highly processed with tons of chemicals . To protect yourself on the inside , as well as out , LivAmend and / or Cocobiotic can help to flush these toxins out of your body so they do n ' t stick around to cause any harm ! Modern Materials Keep in mind that many fabrics ( including natural fibers ) undergo significant processing that often involves : Detergents Petrochemical dyes Formaldehyde to prevent shrinkage Volatile organic compounds ( VOCs ) Dioxin - producing bleach Chemical fabric softeners These additives are often toxic to the human body , may contain heavy metals and can pollute our environment . Fabrics to Chose If you are chemically sensitive or just want to surround yourself with healthy fabrics , listen to Doris Brunza - a fashion designer who worked in the Garment District in New York City for 20 years . She knows about finding fabrics that do n ' t cause reactions because she is chemically sensitive . She points out that nearly ALL fabrics , including organic fabric , are treated with chemicals at some point during their processing . Still , some choices are better than others . In general , look for natural fibers like : Cotton Silk Linen Hemp Wool Cashmere If you can , purchase and wear organic fabrics and organic clothing . While they still might be processed to some extent , they are often a better choice than synthetics . Brunza also advises people to buy high quality European garments made with the finest fabrics . Expensive clothing may seem overpriced , but the quality of the raw materials is superior , and the fibers can be woven into beautiful fabrics that are soft and strong , requiring little chemical processing to make them suitable for you , the consumer . They also last you for years , which makes them a cost - effective and sustainable purchase in the long run . Remember to avoid chemical dry cleaning whenever possible and wash your clothes in a " green " detergent . Organic food , pure water , and natural or organic clothing can work together to enhance your wellbeing and help you live a healthier life . Reducing your toxic load by watching what you are putting into your body and developing immune boosting strategies like sipping probiotic drinks and eating fermented vegetables daily are good steps to take . It may seem like an overwhelming task , but just like any other change , take it one decision at a time . Over time , you ' ll see improvement in your own life and in the world around you . Change in the world begins with you making simple changes in your own life .

http://bodyunburdened.com/chemicals-banned-allowed-in-us-food/ | Chemicals additives banned in other countries but allowed in US foods March 24 , 2013 What do a yoga mat , sneaker soles and a loaf of Wonder Bread have in common ? All contain azodicarbonamide , a chemical primarily used in foam plastics but also used to bleach flour . Azodicarbonamide ( which I โ m not even going to pretend to know how to pronounce ) is one of several chemicals banned in other countries but allowed in US foods . Released just this past February , the book Rich Food Poor Food : The Ultimate Grocery Purchasing System ( GPS uncovered these additives and exactly why they are still being used in food production despite their detrimental health effects . Nutritionist Mira Calton and her husband Jayson Calton , Ph . D . underwent a six - year journey , traveling to over 100 countries and studying more than 150 ingredients , in order to put together a list of the top 13 chemical additives that have been banned by foreign governments yet are still used in the US food industry , to the detriment of consumers . ( 1 - 4 ) Artificial coloring agents blue 1 , blue 2 , yellow 5 , and yellow 6 These are found in an array of processed food items including cake and cake mixes , candy , macaroni and cheese , medicines , sport drinks , soda , pet food , and cheese , artificial dyes are used to make foods to seem more visually appealing to consumers . Do n โ t be fooled , however . โ Today most artificial colors are made from coal tar , which is also used to seal - coat products to preserve and protect the shine of industrial floors โฆ It also appears in head lice shampoos to kill off the ( 5 ) Olestra / Olean This chemical additive is found in fat - free potato chips , โ this fat substitute appears to cause a dramatic depletion of fat - soluble vitamins and carotenoids , robbing us of the vital micro - nutrients . โ For this reason , many countries , including the U.K. and Canada , have banned it . It has been dubbed one of โ The Worst 50 Inventions โ by TIME Magazine . ( 6 & 7 ) BHA and BHT These chemicals are found in cereal , nut mixes / trail mixes , gum , butter , meat , dehydrated potatoes , and beer . California is the only state that recognizes the U.S. National Institute of Health โ s report that BHA is may be a human carcinogen , a cancer - causing agent . ( 8 ) Azodicarbonamide This chemical additive is found in breads , frozen dinners , boxed pasta mixes , and packaged baked goods . While most countries wait a week for flour to naturally whiten , American food companies prefer to use this chemical to bleach the flour ASAP . This chemical has been linked to asthma and is primarily used in foamed plastics , like yoga mats and sneaker soles . ( 9 ) Arsenic Yep , Arsenic . It is added to chicken feed to promote growth , improve efficiency in feeding the birds , and boost pigmentation , which gives them the appearance of being more healthy and fresher . The chemical ends up in the final product , the conveniently packaged poultry found in a grocery store near you . The EU has outlawed the use of arsenic since 1999 . Though the US Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA ) classifies inorganic arsenic as a โ human carcinogen , โ it is still allowed to be used in chicken feed . ( 10 & 11 ) Synthetic hormones rBGH and rBST These synthetic hormones are found in milk and dairy products because they are injected in cows to boost milk production by about 10 percent . As with arsenic , these hormones end up in the final product and eventually in the consumer . The milk is supercharged with IGF - 1 ( insulin growth factor - 1 ) , which has been linked to breast , colon , and prostate cancers . ( Read more about these hormones here . ( 12 ) Potassium bromate ( aka brominated flour ) This chemical additive is found in rolls , wraps , flatbread , bread crumbs , and bagel chips . It helps strengthen dough which reduces the amount of time needed for baking , lowering overall costs . It has been associated with kidney and nervous system disorders as well as gastrointestinal discomfort . Strangely , โ while the FDA has not banned the use of bromated flour , they do urge bakers to voluntarily leave it out . โ Furthermore , bromine is a poisonous chemical that is considered both corrosive and toxic and has been linked to major organ ( 13 ) Brominated vegetable oil ( aka BVO ) This chemical additive is found in sports drinks and citrus - flavored sodas since it prevents the flavoring from separating and floating to the surface of these beverages . โ Because it competes with iodine for receptor sites in the body , elevated levels of the stuff may lead to thyroid issues , such as hypothyroidism , autoimmune disease , and cancer . โ The bottom line : avoid these ingredients at all costs ! Double check those ingredient labels and as soon as you see one of these nasties , put that baby right back on the shelf .

I am so honored you are visiting Body Unburdened ! I ca n โ t wait to see what you and your husband uncover next Nadia April 3 , 2013 at 12 : 58 pm Thanks for visiting and sharing , Ashley !

I went right to my pantry and started looking at ingrediants . FYI โ King Author has never used any kind of Bromates in producing thier flour . Pilsbury and Entemenns did use bromates , but since the research on cancer linkagess , they have stopped producing flour with the use of bromates . Again , good article , I will continue to research the other ingrediants mentioned above and in the pictures . John April 21 , 2013 at 9 : 36 pm Heres the only label you need to read โฆ when it says this . . it really means dont eat it . FDA APPROVED dlinca May 29 , 2013 at 3 : 50 pm I simply do n โ t understand how a person could approve these chemicals for consumption and then sleep at night . I would be wrought with guilt . Kathy May 31 , 2013 at 6 : 51 pm Thank you for this ! I really appreciate it ! Love this site ! The Saffron Girl July 1 , 2013 at 1 : 47 am Thank you so much for putting this together and disseminating the information . It โ s important that we understand and are aware of the dangers in processed and also non - procssed foods . I โ ve shared with my readers on FB . Rachel V July 14 , 2013 at 6 : 27 pm Arsenic is not currently in commercial poultry and has not been in poultry since 2011 . The only feed ingredient that contained arsenic was 3 - Nitro ( Rosarsone ) and sale of the substance was suspended in 2011 ( http : / / www . fda . gov / AnimalVeterinary / SafetyHealth / ProductSafetyInformation / ucm257540 . htm ) . My husband has a PhD in Poultry Nutrition and works in the poultry industry helping companies formulate diets ( there are only about 60 poultry nutritionists in the country so everyone knows everyone etc ) . Since this product is not currently available there is no arsenic fed to chickens . Also , every living thing actually has a nutritional requirement for arsenic ( however small ) including humans . It is only when you get excess doses of it there are problems . July 15 , 2013 at 12 : 34 pm Hi , Rachel . My apologies for the delay in responding . I went away for the weekend with my family . I will say that this is the first I have heard of this and will certainly look into it and edit the post accordingly . Thank you for bringing it to my attention . Cynthia April 11 , 2014 at 12 : 40 pm Rachel and Nadia , I , also , have not โ heard โ that arsenic has not been used in chicken feed since 2011 . PLEASE let us remember that ( 1 ) there are two types of arsenic - organic , which occurs naturally in our environment and is not nearly as toxic to our bodies , and inorganic arsenic , which does not occur naturally in our environment and IS toxic to our systems . Inorganic arsenic is the type that is used in farming applications such as poultry feed . Point ( 2 ) is that Rachel , your father has Rachel V April 11 , 2014 at 4 : 02 pm 1 . As stated in the article I cited ORGANIC arsenic is what was used in 3 - Nitro not inorganic . New research showed that the arsenic was being converted into inorganic once ingested by the chicken and is the reason the product was pulled from the market . 2 . At the time I posted my original reply the product had been removed from the market . Since then it has been banned by the FDA . http : / / www . nytimes . com / 2013 / 10 / 02 / business / fda - bans - three - arsenic - drugs - used - in - poultry - and - pig - feeds . html ? _r = 2& 3 . Overall poultry sales would not be hurt by this information . Worldwide poultry is and will continue to be the cheapest source of protein for people to consume โ the demand is not going anywhere . Regardless of whether this product is on the market or not my husband will continue to have a job . We have no skin in the game so to say one way or the other on this topic . In fact if people continue to believe stuff like this and it drives them to buy โ premium โ chicken ( All Natural 4 . Given everything we know about chicken in my household we always have and will continue to buy the cheapest chicken and eggs available on the market . As an โ industry insider โ I should know more than most if there was a problem and a need to steer clear . WanderingSusan April 24 , 2014 at 4 : 10 pm I choose not to eat sick chickens or eggs that are unnaturally rushed through the chickens gestation process producing tasteless eggs with thin shells . Chickens eat bugs , not vegetarian diets . It is not part of their natural diet to eat grains โ therefore a happy chicken from a small farm that is allowing them to feed on the ground without GMO corn gets all my business . Not sure where you โ re from but chicken is NOT the cheapest form of protein โ beans and legumes are . NTAKILUTA NDATO July 3 , 2015 at 9 : 31 pm Thanks For Your Lesson ! Dee October 11 , 2015 at 1 : 38 pm This is in regards to someone stating that it does n โ t matter to them what the public is buying โฆ organic chicken or Chemical fed chickens , their husband is still going to be employed . I am an organic food Buyer . I do n โ t buy organic food just for the reason alone that my family is eating non poisonous food . But also because of the earth . I just want to remind everybody that there are two reasons why we should be concerned about what is in our food . Number 1 being that we are consuming it of course โฆ . but number 2 because it โ s not mentioned on here , the things that they are using in our food and animal feeds is also harming our planet and animals on it .

http://boforbes.com/yoga-practice-lab/blog/feel-pain-empaths-guide-staying-balanced/ | I Feel Your Pain : An Empath โ s Guide to Staying Balanced Do you often wonder which emotions are yours , and which belong to someone else ? When people you care about are hurting , do you feel their pain so deeply that it โ s hard to separate โ even after they โ re out of crisis mode ? In relationships , do you donate so much of your own natural resources that you suffer from a chronic energy shortage ? And with those you โ re close to , is it hard to figure out what your own needs are โ or even what you want for dinner ? empath What does it mean to be an empath , and why is it fraught with these basic life challenges ? Derived from the Greek โ em โ ( in ) and โ pathos โ ( feeling ) , the term empathic means you โ re able to โ feel into โ others โ feelings . But for empaths , this sensitivity is magnified to the nth degree . An empath is more tuned in , more empathic , and sensitive to others than the average empathic person . Being this tuned in , empathic , and sensitive is an asset , but it comes at great cost . Empaths are unusually vulnerable to emotional contagion , to โ catching โ others โ emotions in much the same way that you โ d catch a cold or flu . But it does n โ t stop there : empaths get physically ill and suffer from anxiety , depression , chronic stress , professional burnout , and pain syndromes more often than their less empathic counterparts . And empaths often need lots of down time after social engagements , โ As a clinical psychologist and yoga therapist , I โ ve supervised psychotherapists , yoga teachers , and yoga practitioners for more than two decades โ and a great many of them are empaths . I โ ve helped them identify who they are and develop the skills to lead more balanced and healthy lives . And as a โ recovering empath โ myself , I โ ve had to walk a parallel path . From this personal and professional immersion , I โ ve found that it helps just to name the issue , to hammer a framework of Are you an empath ? Here are five signs that you might be โ and that your wonderful qualities , when left unchecked , can compromise your health . THE EMPATH CHECKLIST : 1 . You struggle with boundaries It โ s tough to know where you leave off and others begin , which experiences are yours and which come from others , when to open your channels for connection or to close them . 2 . You โ re often not in your body . For empaths , all that โ feeling into โ the experiences of others means that you dissociate : you leave your body or โ shuttle โ out of direct experience as a matter of course . 3 . You โ re vulnerable to emotional contagion . You absorb the emotions of others , from your boss and colleagues at work to your family and friends , and even the check - out guy at Whole Foods . 4 . You โ re prone to nervous system overdrive . It does n โ t take much โ sometimes just a draining conversation or a party that โ s loud and over - populated โ to propel your nervous system into alarm mode . 5 . You have trouble with intimacy . Your relationships are filled with intense bonding and equally intense separations . You can merge with others at the drop of a hat , but get so entangled that an โ emotional exorcism โ of someone you care about is often the only way to get your space . Even when we โ re aware of them , these patterns are hard to change . They โ re wired into us deeply , at levels the conscious mind ca n โ t reach . For that reason , to be a healthy empath requires daily practice . Here are the key issues and therapeutic practices that form the heart of the journey . The challenge is that much of the healing needs to happen through the body . And for empaths , the body can be a wasteland of sorts , a long - abandoned battleground . Lest you think this is a โ chick thing , โ there are male empaths , too . It โ s just that the process of natural selection draws empathic males underground more quickly than it does their female counterparts because sensitivity , empathy , and attunement to others are considered โ feminine โ traits . Male empaths can be ostracized for these qualities , and learn to bury them from sight . As a male empath in one of our therapeutics clinics recently said , โ I take on other people โ s experiences all the time . I RX FOR EMPATHS : Empaths have an extraordinary capacity for union . They โ re great in a crisis ; people in need call forth their deepest abilities . They make gifted , intuitive healers . They see others deeply , well beyond the surface . And they have a magnetic quality that draws people to them . Yet flanking these positive aspects are several shadow sides . Here โ s what you โ ll want to focus on to help you live in a state of physical and emotional equilibrium . 1 . Develop Boundaries . As an empath , you give too much space to others โ emotional lives . You solve their problems with ease and help them restore equilibrium , often at the expense of your own energy stores . But even when no one needs you , the habit of โ trolling for crisis โ means you โ re always on alert , and makes it tough to return to the shores of your own awareness . Empath Rx : Creating boundaries is n โ t a matter of mental discipline , of โ just say no . โ When you โ re an empath , limits need to be integrated into your physicality . The core body is your seat of power : What helps is a yoga practice that brings your focus into your deep , intrinsic core where you can develop โ prana in the belly . โ This four - pronged core body program includes awareness , strength , flexibility , and the capacity to release . Working with the core in this 2 . Bring Awareness into Your Body . Imagine that you โ ve left to visit a friend in another city and forgotten to lock your house . And that โ s not all : You โ ve left all the doors and windows wide open , so anyone can get in . This is what it โ s like to be an empath . You can abandon your own home , your direct experience , in favor of someone else โ s . The more you do this , the more difficult it is to return . What makes matters worse is that not inhabiting your body Empath Rx : Offset this tendency toward dissociation with slow , mindful vinyasa yoga sequences that link movement with breath . Empaths can spend a whole yoga class or practice on auto - pilot : adding anchors for awareness will help bring you back to your body and to the present . Contemplative practices such as meditation and restorative yoga give you the time , space , and silence you need to get re - embodied again . 3 . Balance Your Nervous System . An empath โ s environment is like โ emotional satellite radio โ with surround sound and hundreds of channels . Your nervous system surfs the dial constantly , flipping from station to station to listen to others โ emotional broadcasts : your boss โ s complaints about work , your partner โ s anxiety over a potential job loss , your best friend โ s sadness about a breakup . These information - processing demands can catapult your nervous system into overdrive , which reinforces anxiety , depression , and chronic stress . On top of that , the incessant Empath RX : Learn to notice the signs of nervous system overdrive , such as that inner sense of something always โ humming โ beneath the surface , an elevated heart rate , and increased emotional reactivity . Practice simple breathwork techniques like nasal breath ( and if accessible , nasal breath with a longer exhale ) to slow your heart and bring your nervous system back to baseline . Regular breaks from social media also help , as do practices that balance your nervous system and quiet your mind , like Restorative Yoga . 4 . Learn to Regulate Intimacy . For empaths , intimacy comes down to matters of space and reciprocity . You can feel like Dr . Doolittle โ s Push - Me - Pull - You : Sometimes you crave intense emotional , physical , and spiritual bonding . At other times , you need so much space that having your own personal galaxy might feel too crowded . When you want to merge , you can threaten people who have a higher need for breathing room ; when you need wide - open space , you can appear remote and withholding . And when it comes Empath Rx : To build your ability to receive care from others , try bodywork or yoga therapy with someone you trust . You can also balance a personal yoga practice with group classes to strengthen your sense of community . If your job requires any degree of public exposure , or you work as a healer , you may need stretches of alone time to reestablish your equilibrium . Here again , mindfulness - based practices can help you notice feelings of being devoured and interrupt the cycle of merger and isolation before you reach the breaking point . 5 . Develop emotional immunity . Empaths pick up on other โ s emotions and even their direct inner experience so rapidly that it โ s hard to indentify what โ s happened . As a result , a large part of your anxiety , depression , chronic pain , and immune issues can belong not to you , but to someone else . And just like your nervous system and physical body , your emotional body and immune system struggle with boundaries . They have difficulty discerning what โ s you and what โ s not . This leaves you vulnerable to emotional issues like Empath Rx : Practice interpersonal hygiene : using mindfulness , notice how you feel after spending time with others . You โ ll soon learn which people are hazardous to your health , and you can limit your interactions with them . Also try lymph - stimulating asana sequences and Restorative Yoga to stimulate your capacity for constructive internal reflection . THE EMPATH โ S FILTER : One of the more insidious consequences of Empath Syndrome is having a very thin , membranous emotional skin which reacts intensely to real or perceived invasion . This skin is allergic to a variety of foods , social settings , and other people โ and on the inside , it mimics the auto - immune pattern of self - hatred . This exposes our nerve endings to all the shame , rage , and deep , existential grief inside us and in everyone around us . An offhand comment from a loved one , a request for help from someone when our resources are at a low ebb , or a harmless comment from that โ weird guy โ at the gym can get under Having the armed forces behind us can feel comforting initially , but our actions only strengthen the sensitivity of the danger / safe filter . And since our narrative is rarely limited to one encounter , we practice it over time . Soon , it gains a brittle hardness . This outer shell protects us from injury ( good ) , but also from intimacy with others and our deepest selves ( not so good ) . Often , the deepest ( and hardest ! ) work happens long after the interaction is over , when our nervous system is back to balance and the temporary comfort our narrative gave us has dissipated . Our task is to go back to the filter , to our initial decision in the moment , and reevaluate . We can ( this is so hard ! ) reconsider and re - examine the encounter from all angles , balancing the harsh light of hindsight with a healthy dose of self - compassion . We can even ask others for input Over time , we can acknowledge where our filters make errors or blind us . We can change their sensitivity settings to be more open . We can acknowledge where they make errors or may blind us . Then we โ ve got something to grown on . The challenging part : Empaths have a really tough time changing this filter because it feels so necessary for safety . What โ s more , adjusting the settings actually stretches our โ emotional skin . โ This expansion is uncomfortable : It can feel in some ways like a โ little IT โ S LIKE A TATTOO : Empaths often ask me , with great sincerity , โ How do I get rid of this ? โ Their poignant request reflects the cost they pay , in time and effort , to achieve a measure of balance . But being an empath is like having a tattoo : the imprint is there for life , no matter what you may do to change it . These practices are n โ t a time - limited , do - it - for - three - months - and - all - will - be - well kind of program Empaths need community , a tribe of our own to belong to , and a shared language through which we can first unload the burden of being built as we are . Yet once we โ ve ingested this sense of belonging , our task is to resist the temptation to rest there forever , and cultivate instead both personal and shared practices that bolster our body , calm our mind , and help us ground into and explore ourselves . We do this first in shallow waters and then in time , the deep . It may seem that transformation is about transcendence : that we somehow leave behind our flaws to achieve a measure of spiritual perfection . Yet true spiritual evolution and emotional health entail a reckoning with and even valuing of the unique set of challenges we โ ve been given . Sometimes the holes in our evolution โ the very things that we lack โ plait a deep thread of awareness into the fabric of our self - study . We โ ll spend the rest of our lives unraveling that thread , and weaving and reweaving it . And there And the reward for all this hard work of integration ? There will come an extended moment in time when something or someone will activate your nervous system , stimulate your filter and the narrative that comes with it , and tie you in emotional knots . But this time , you โ ll recognize it as it happens . You โ ll be able to enter a dialogue . You โ ll say to yourself something like , โ Oh - here it is again โ it โ s happening ! This person has bumped right up against my notice the signs of activation : elevated heart rate , difficulty breathing , intense emotional reactivity , and an immediate gravitational pull toward a difficult story . โ They must not care about me at all , โ you โ ll start to think . Then suddenly , you โ ll remember to feel where that activation is concentrated in your body : often , for empaths , it โ s the upper core or solar plexus area . You โ ll bring your hands to that area and breathe deeply into it for several minutes . And if it โ And all at once , you โ ll feel the deep worth of daily empath practices . You โ ll find a simultaneous sense of yielding and resilience . You โ ll feel a beautiful solidity , as though you โ ve colored in your outlines . You โ ll discover a newfound sense of your own intrinsic value in the world . And this will be matched by the joy that comes bubbling up from the wellspring of your body . Being an empath asks us to become fluent in the field of paradox , to metabolize opposing concepts and challenges . How can we engage in rich relationship with others and the world around us , for instance , while finding the silence and space to discover the self and world inside us ? How do we find balance between matter and spirit , inner awareness and outer focus , or self and other ? And how might we engage in the dynamic interchange between the concept of evolution โ which hints at a future self โ and the self It may be later in life by the time we truly blossom , but the time , patience , and inner work are well worth the effort . When we learn to regulate our nervous system , create healthy boundaries in our body , and adjust the filter through which we evaluate direct experience , we become truly resilient . And instead of making ourselves small to fit the world around us , to find a tribe where we belong , we learn to blossom on our own . This blossoming draws others to us .

Fiona April 14 , 2016 at 8 : 10 pm Thank you so very much For writing this piece I finally have found done normal in my crazy Thank you so very much I can not calm down in my crazy life with kids to do yoga , is there anything else I can do , to balance myself before I deplete myself Kymeirah July 7 , 2016 at 7 : 59 am What about meditation ? I like to meditate in a hot shower since the heat of the water relaxes my body as I relax my mind . Doing so in the dark was actually how I dealt with insomniac episodes when I was younger . If that does n โ t work then maybe before you go to sleep you can meditate a bit and it will help you fall asleep easier too if that โ s an issue you face . You can end up replacing mediation with yoga and mindfulness exercises if you find you have the time for it as well . Also a bath may be more calming for others , but personally it relaxes me to hear the water from a shower Fernanda August 14 , 2016 at 5 : 35 pm I feel The same way โฆ Karin January 8 , 2017 at 10 : 59 pm I was totally tripping at this article because although I โ ve been reading about this subject matter for years there โ s something about this one that resonated with me on such an incredible level . I feel as though it โ s the best thing I read on the subject in I do n โ t know how long . . when I read your comment I laughed my ass off because that โ s pretty much exactly what I wanted to say You both have no idea how much I needed to hear these exact words at this exact moment LOL thank you Bart September 5 , 2017 at 1 : 34 pm First time I recognize myself in someone else โ s writing .

I am so grateful for the validation and permission to be alone to re set my self and to take time to digest after being with others . I had been a high school teacher and department chair for 11 years as an empath and I thought that the life was being sucked out of me . In hind sight it makes so much sense . My yoga and shamanic practice in the last 9 years has taught me much of what you have shared and I am so grateful ! Your class April 4 , 2014 at 6 : 24 pm Monica , you โ re right on ! It โ s so great when we can trust in our body as our greatest teacher : something that comes โ late โ for empaths but is all the more rewarding when it does โฆ and that gnosis , the body wisdom , can never be taken away . Laura April 4 , 2014 at 6 : 05 pm First time I have read something on the subject I have been addressing in myself for my whole life , in a way that speaks to me . It can feel like being taken over by the other and a huge psychological effort to retain a sense of self in the most ordinary situations . It โ s been a long , difficult journey in coming to terms with how these feelings have affected me . Particularly reassuring was the idea that the yoga practice can help unravel , weave a new thread and transform the complexity of the mind , by focussing on the deep centre in the body . Grounding imagery has helped me immensely . It โ s a deeply stressful experience at times to experience enmeshment / heightened empathy . It โ s a calling to tune in , so a lesson and deep one at that . More pieces of insight like this will help hugely . thank you April 4 , 2014 at 6 : 25 pm Thank you for commenting , Laura . You โ re right about the effort that even the most ordinary situations can require . And yes - it โ s all about the body for empaths .

Angela January 14 , 2016 at 9 : 21 pm I get it . Having to let go to someone you felt so connected with that you can feel their own pain as if it โ s your own .Letting them go seems like you are letting go of yourself . Why have those emotions in the first place ? Why feel their pain of you were meant only to be a part of their life for a moment ? I had to let go of these toxic relationships . Let go and pray for their healing . I could n โ t just waste myself away in pain . Celia April 3 , 2016 at 1 : 03 am Wanted to say , for me , when I finally made myself โ let go โ of some of the people in my life it let us have a more healthy normal friendship / relationship after we both healed some and got in touch with ourselves .

In being aware of โ filter - resetting โ I had an experience at a gathering where I felt very triggered and in my mind snapped to a negative conclusion / judgement about myself and the situation .

This is the first time I have read anything that accords insight , respect , and assistance to the universe of an โ empath , โ as you suggest here . There is perhaps a kind of original self - loss that generates such a life cycle โฆ Dissociation leads to a terrible chill inside , and experience of raw , wounded emptiness . Vicarious emotion perhaps becomes a salve , a great warmth , at least initially . Before the kinds of inundations and nervous fatigues set in , as you describe here . Sourced in an empath โ s protective cover , strong dissociation , depersonalisation may lead to full - blown disturbances โฆ Your writing really feels like a breakthrough . I am currently taking your online course โ yoga for emotional balancing . This article provides a powerful orientation from which to approach the materials in it . I would also love to be part of any courses you may be conducting ( online ) that are in fact dedicated to work with empathic equilibrium .

It โ s comforting to know that I โ m not alone and that there are ways to help cope with this and regulate it . Richard Kay August 24 , 2014 at 1 : 22 am If I โ m an empath , then I will say that some empaths are non - comittal idealists that operate from a consciousness in the grips of complete identity crisis . After stripping all the labels away , I still have nothing to hold on to . Nothing fundamentally and objectively identifiable as the core and source of my being . Like a ghost . That is why I am โ open โ , when I am . I need to connect to something . I โ ve never met anyone who can read me . I โ ve prayed to the Gods , to the God of the Gods . I โ ve humbly bowed down to the ONE who dwells within me as me . Yet , I โ m still lost without a thread of any real knowing . It โ s an absurd , ridiculous reality from my point of view . Love yourselves and love one another . Do your best , and your life will have occasion to be remembered for a time in this grand , persistent illusion of permanence . Be happy now .

Christopher October 13 , 2014 at 3 : 43 pm I began writing recently in order to try and organize myself . I started writing about how around 10 years old I noticed the void within myself that I often visited and how it was directly related to the hurt I felt coming from others . I specifically noted how I felt broken and spent years reading people to try and solve what was wrong with me . One of the largest struggles I have and am dealing with is that after devoting so much of myself to reading people that I have grown a scarey skill set of being able to effortlessly manipulate others . I was told by my psychologist that it is common with people that are more developed in these areas to feel like a monster is within them . Which is because the ability to powerful help and heal others is mixed with intelligence and can be used to destroy others just as thoroughly . Suicidal thoughts and attempts had also rose in My question is , have you , in your journey of introspection , felt this way . The fear / self - hate seems to be fading as I grow older and have completed more of the puzzle that is existence โ s many paradoxes . It โ s still there though at times for me .

I have always loved being in my room with me ( of course I needed to rebalance myself ) Anyway , thank you for writing what I have always felt I was . And YES , I have always believed I โ m an alien hahaha so funny when you said that . Before I used to get so tired by this empathy , now that I โ m a yoga teacher and a Therapist I have to say that it helps a lot . You can easily detect what people are feeling or going through and I feel that โ s a great advantage when helping them through their own hurricanes . Of course you need to learn how to observe and feel without absorbing it yourself โฆ Mindfulness is key for this ! Anyway , thank you ! ! Big hugs ! Rock on Empaths ! ! ! We are not alone !

How is this different or is it ? Thanks ! Julia April 27 , 2015 at 2 : 31 pm Thank you so much for this article . So much of what you write about is what I have dealt with my entire life , and I am coming to have a new understanding of how to embrace my empath identity and live in the world . The self - discovery has been hard ; I am now at the point that I feel extremely sensitive to AND aware of the energy of others , instead of just sensitive , tired , hurt , and overextended all of the time like I used to . I know that awareness is Metaphors help me the most to explain my experiences and the emotions / energies that I take on ( sometimes , without even knowing it ! ) Sometimes it โ s felt like I am in the middle of a tornado , watching and feeling the whirl of โ things โ ( usually emotions , energies , and baggage of others ) spinning around me . I do n โ t know what is mine and what is n โ t mine โ I just feel all of it and can not separate the large mass . Recently , I Thanks so much ! Stella April 28 , 2015 at 7 : 18 am The more I read about Empath โ s , the more discouraged I become . Seems like there is a business out there to cash in on damaged souls , which is a real shame . I feel and agree with much of what has been said , but disagree with many of the solutions . May 3 , 2015 at 5 : 30 pm I gently disagree , Stella . Most empaths ( and you can really sense this from the comments above yours ) feel alone and disenfranchised our whole lives . Even more , we can feel like something is wrong with us . Discovering that we โ ve got a tribe is huge - and having tools to work on ( which are , by the way , free tools ) is even more important . I โ d also caution about the term โ damaged souls . โ There is absolutely nothing wrong with our souls . Empaths are n โ t damaged : we โ re just wired differently . And we have beautiful souls . We just do better in life when we work on the body , and the nervous system , that houses our souls . You โ re free to disagree with the solutions , of course . I โ d just work on the filters you have here for information , โ cause when these filters narrow , they make it hard to be open - minded and ultimately , to re - wire ourselves for greater well - being .

I would like to hear what you all think I โ m just a 24 year old man looking for some help and guidance . And thanks for Steve June 13 , 2015 at 3 : 34 am Thank you for this . Such a great article . I am now in my early 40 โ s and have known since an early age that there was something that made me different . I think most people around me accepted that I was a โ very sensitive soul . โ However true this may be , I think now that this labeling somehow misses the point . I also have to say that I dislike your phrase , referring to yourself as a โ recovering empath โ . The reason I dislike both of these is because I feel it labels us in others eyes as somewhat weak , and in need of help , when I think that yes , it is surely a phenomena that is preset in certain individuals , but it is not a disease . It should be looked upon as a gift as much as a burden . I spent lots of my younger years very confused , I felt very different to others and constantly stressed by my feelings . I avoided social gatherings and as you said โ spent much of my time outside of my body trying constantly to connect with the outside world and the people in it . However , I always knew that I felt things on a much deeper level than most people around me . I started practising yoga and mindfulness in my 30 โ s and whether now at a class or even on my own at home I try to incorporate this into my life on a regular basis . There are still times when I feel emotionally overloaded . For me the biggest sign is always my health . It โ s at these times that I know I need to take time to be with myself and restore my energies . I think you have a wonderful understanding and your recommendations are very reassuring . Thank you for this . BobbySingerFan July 6 , 2015 at 7 : 03 pm My degree of empathy all my adult life has been a puzzling and oft concerning thing to me . I have wondered if I was a freak or something . I have always been able to easily connect to certain people , many people , and feel a deeper connection than can be found with only the 5 senses . The depth of my feelings for the profound emotions of others I experience has caused me discomfort at times . I would look around and see that this piece of music , this life story , this tale of an underdog โ s struggle , it affected me far more than others around me , or so it seemed , and I have wondered if I had something clinical , and can I and should I seek advice and counsel to put thinks into perspective . I am a lifelong atheist and Progressive Humanist , and have always pooh - poohed away any answers to questions regarding โ invisible omnipotent deities โ along with ghosts , psychics , card readers , astrology , and anything involving invisible forces from invisible beings . I happened to see the word โ empath โ recently and as soon as I read the word I felt an enlightenment approaching . I was totally blown away to read and learn about other people who have similar emotional connections and experiences . I immediately felt a sense of calm , it all became clear โฆ . . there is a name and a culture for much of what I had been apprehensive about for so long . I am an Empath .

Sometimes you crave intense emotional , physical , and spiritual bonding . At other times , you need so much space that having your own personal galaxy might feel too crowded . YES ! 2 . When you want to merge , you can threaten people who have a higher need for breathing room ; when you need wide - open space , you can appear remote and withholding . YES ! 3 . And when it comes to reciprocity , you โ re rarely comfortable on the receiving end . 4 . Your giving nature attracts narcissistic people who crave the mirroring and validation you offer . 5 . In the meantime , you โ re able to create a fantasy in which the relationship lives up to its potential โ and you inhabit that fantasy as though it were real . 6 . You learn to subsist on a diet of mere โ emotional breadcrumbs , โ and can suffer from malnourishment . OMG YES ! Finally ! So much begins to make sense . Phew โฆ breathing easier .

I have n โ t ever told anyone about this because every time I try they tell me I am imagining it . I feel like I do n โ t belong anywhere .

Recently it has been worse though I have been getting panic attacks and awful headaches , that I do n โ t know how to make go away ( Is that normal for an empathic person ? ) because I just ca n โ t make it stop and I ca n โ t get away from it , sometimes I do n โ t even have to be that close to a person to feel what they do and I sometimes see their pasts and memories and feel what they felt then .

Thank you and Many Blessings . Kirsty October 5 , 2015 at 10 : 47 am Thank you for writing this & thank you all for the comments ; I thought I was alone in this ! If what I experience whilst awake was n โ t weird enough ; the feeling of having had a blood ( or soul karma ? ) transfusion as written above from just touching someone ; constantly being able to tell the vibe of a place like I โ m some kind of an xray machine ( eg ; one side of a street having a history / heritage of โ DNA โ that is n โ t in โ conflict โ with my own ) noticing / taking in every single little detail is very tiring & working hard to Its worse when I am in a place where there has been recent trauma / fighting etc ; I found a recent trip to USA / Canada very challenging ; feeling all the trauma from the last few hundred years & often feeling like I am seeing events / patterns repeating themselves ( is this past life stuff through a thinning veil ? ! ) . Not so bad in UK where major โ battles โ & land trauma etc happened further back in history . Being in crowded places is becoming a no go area ; often wearing earplugs ( earphones full blast for music worked great until some V weird occurrences where using the shuffle function started relaying vibes of those I was trying to drown out like musical tarot ! ) When I am asleep I dream the energy of the building / land , often experiencing it as a participant , regularly having many names , numbers & even full songs shown to me in dream ( the few times a feeling of having something shouted in my ear as I wake up & once seeing a ball of swirling dust by my pillow until I fully woke with a voice repeating a date & 2 town names was really disturbing ) Often dreaming that I am in the house ( psyche ? ) of someone else , usually those who have drained me in some way in the waking world ; that I have had to stay away from ; nearly always I can โ see โ or feel in the dream what is currently going on in their actual lives . The weirdest recent thing was being out listening to a DJ ; a few songs I had n โ t heard for a long time I associated with a particular person , several hours later finding out they had passed on around the same time . Its tough experiencing these things & having to be very careful who I discuss it with โฆ A safe private environment to share these things with you lovely folk who experience similar would be so very welcome ! Thanks again all for sharing Xxx Kirsty October 5 , 2015 at 2 : 22 pm Wow , rejecting / excluding my comment not allowing me to connect or share with others experiencing similar : thanks for not being the person you write about being ! This stuff is horrid enough to experience all alone without false teachers like you turning me away too . Thanks a lot ! October 5 , 2015 at 11 : 02 pm Dear Kirsty , We have n โ t rejected your comment , or not allowed you to connect with others experiencing similar issues . Keep in mind that you posted your comment just a few hours ago , and someone needs to review it : me . I โ m just a live person , not a robot , much as I sometimes wish otherwise โฆ I โ ve got a pretty packed schedule with many things on my plate . It might also be helpful to know that many blogs , including this one , do n โ t immediately โ ping โ the author when there โ s a commment . We have to go in manually and review each one , which I try to do once or twice a week . It โ s just one of a number of services writers provide , and we do so free of charge . So hence , a little time delay . So this is the empath filter in action , no ? This is such a great opportunity , though ! You get to see , here , the other side of being an empath : When our nervous system is triggered , or the empath filter kicks in , we can get overwhelmed and react from off - center . When that happens , we do n โ t always stay in our body . We ca n โ t see or sense the person on the other end of that interaction - and we might come from a reactive place . The cool thing here , though , is that Then , in time , you can revisit the filter . You can ask yourself , โ Was I really turned away ? โ or โ It โ s only been a few hours ; maybe I โ ll give it a day , or two , or three . โ And say that we actually decided not to post your comment ( as it says at the end of the article , sometimes we do n โ t - particularly if we feel they โ ll be tough , sometimes contagious , reading for the other empaths - โ I hope this feels as exciting to you as it does to me to see someone have a live opportunity to try this out when you โ re in the thick of it . There are so many rich possibilities for growth and evolution in this exchange , and we hope they โ re digestible for you . Why should you take the time and trouble to do all this work ? Because these strong reactions are internally corrosive . They devour your life force , your good will , your connections with others , from the inside out . These reactions require a big chunk of our own internal resources to maintain , which leaves leaves very little left over to explore our boundaries , engage in productive relationships , and explore the well of creative energy that lies within . A fringe benefit from doing this work is that empaths are n โ t always , well , empathic . Sometimes they can be hostile , unecessarily confrontive , and righteous - and that โ s part of Your idea of a safe , private environment with which to share things is a wonderful one . This blog wo n โ t be able to give you the felt sense of immediate response that you want , and deserve . And although I โ ve taken the time to respond to you as thoughtfully as I can , this medium does n โ t really facilitate support . The only resource that might do something like this that I know of is the Empath Connection , a facebook group . You can find them here : https : / / www . facebook . com / Empath - Connection - 134926033194344 / timeline / Warmly , bo mary October 6 , 2015 at 11 : 11 pm Thank you Bo , It is wonderful to have how I feel validated , I need rest after being with other people and I used to think there was something wrong with me . I need nature and nurture . With gratitude benni October 7 , 2015 at 12 : 02 am I can sympathize with the urge to squelch the pain , but I think that in general understanding how emotions work and the interaction between our emotions , viscera , and thoughts is a lot more empowering than figuring out who โ s โ causing โ our emotions and where to build walls . It โ s more difficult , and granted the tools are hard to come by , but it โ s also more humanitarian . Glenys Smith Elliott October 7 , 2015 at 2 : 57 pm This so explains my desperate need for quiet alone time , especially after intense time working with people who have trauma . Was beginning to think it was aging โ but this article really helps me see it as part of the balance I need as an empath . The part about attracting narcissists also resonates with me and helps me understand some feelings I experience after spending time with particular individuals who have been in my life a long time . I love the book and look forward to the online course . Thanks for sharing this insight in Glenys Talya October 9 , 2015 at 4 : 27 am Thanks for nailing it once again , Bo . The discussion of intimacy issues , in particular , resonated so strongly . That continues to be an area where I feel stuck , although direct work on boundaries revealed and helped quite a lot . I had an experience just the other day of being so off - kilter and then getting into my body ( through dance ) , and having everything re - calibrate . My perspective completely shifted to reflect my actual values . For some reason the importance of practices that get me into my body had never been quite so crystal clear . So , to my fellow empaths , I guess I would just offer this : in this world where mind and body are dichotomous , we are perhaps more naturally drawn to the life of the mind โ let โ s not forget , then , to stay curious about the life of the body . Lord knows I โ m trying ! haha . Thanks again . You know I โ ll be popping into class next chance I get , no matter where in the world it might be or how much time goes by !

He wanted to discuss โ us โ . His emotional pain was reflected in me . I could n โ t talk to him . I felt a pain and heaviness in my chest . It only happened with him . I am an optimist . He was struggling from depression . I told him one time that I felt like I was being sucked dry . Once I knew about the affair I could talk to him and the pain went away . He was not projecting that inner turmoil . A few months later he was diagnosed with cancer . He lived fourteen weeks . At that time my empathy allowed me to care for him and love him . It was difficult to sit and see him in pain but I was able to relate to him on a deeper level . Just today I learned why . Now that I know I can protect myself . I wish I had known sooner . I could have had a much better marriage . My husband was a type who held things in and created a wall . I could feel , it as if it was a tangible structure . With the knowledge I have now I could have bridged the gap or at least understood what was happening to me . Bethany October 15 , 2015 at 10 : 51 am Thank you for this article ! I did always wonder if something was wrong with me . Whenever someone shares their feelings with me or even just around me , I feel like I โ m experiencing it . I was diagnosed with social anxiety disorder at age 15 . It โ s taken years , but I โ m starting to understand this is the cause . Everything you posted in the article felt like an emotional X - Ray . I used to cry when my brother was punished when I was little . I could feel every toxic negative fear that afflicted my mom and dad . I โ m 25 now and it still happens . Every time anyone shares a feeling , be it good or ill or anything in between , I still feel like I โ m personally experiencing it โฆ That โ s why I โ m afraid to associate with people unless I โ m sure they wo n โ t threaten what I have managed to learn about my own self , and unless I โ m sure they wo n โ t be talking about things that scare me , or thinking they know better than I do about It will be exciting to learn how to balance this โฆ Im usually not so open , this feels good Anna green October 15 , 2015 at 8 : 15 am Thank god i know what i am now and what to do it makes things alot easier . It feels great i am grateful for my gift and wish to learn and control it . I do like being different from others . People find me weird and like they do n โ t know me . But you know i think out of my experience when your an empath u should keep it ur self . may god be with me and those who have this amazing gift . : > Rebecca October 16 , 2015 at 8 : 07 am Ok โฆ I just finished the whole thing . I took the time , read and digested it very slowly , craving to understand and feel every bit of it . I am committed to try all the suggested ways to calm my nerves and balance out what goes through my senses now that I am more aware of it . Just want to say thank you , Bo , as this article did create a resonant in me that it brought me to tears when I was at the last part where you wrote , โ an empath in full flower is an extraordinary thing to witness : vulnerable yet resilient , intuitive yet grounded , and deeply creative , expressive , and magnetic โ . I could not find a description for myself before except for vulnerable and over - enabling , both seems to only get myself in trouble . But now , I know with practice , I can be something more centred and fascinating .

Check it out ; our first is designed specially for parents of empaths . Enjoy ! Hannah November 12 , 2015 at 12 : 58 am I โ m only 15 years old . I have been dealing with being an empathy for what seems like forever . I have been trying to figure out ways to deal with it . All my friends come to me for advice and I do n โ t want to say no and dealing with their problems takes a huge emotional toll on my body . Lately I have n โ t been able to have anytime to get space and recoup from it and I do n โ t know what to do until I read this article November 13 , 2015 at 10 : 48 pm Dear Hannah , I โ m so happy to see a 15 year - old empath writing in . When you โ re able to address these patterns at an early age through embodied movement and physical boundary practics , it really helps . Stay tuned to our Instagram , where we โ ll be posting on โ repair practices โ and more . Warmest wishes to you ! Jacqui November 23 , 2015 at 6 : 52 pm I have known for awhile that I was an empath โฆ I have read many things . This has been so much clearer and specific . Right now I am hitting a place where it is no longer cutesy . My spouse is ill and my elderly parents have finally moved nearer to me . My only sibling is also on a journey to diagnosing and making a plan for several things such as strokes and kidney disease . Plus the sick and hurting friends . I actually vibrate with all this going around me โฆ how everyone feels , December 8 , 2015 at 1 : 18 am Jacqui , please know that every empath , once embodied , can feel strong and balanced - not just for or on behalf of others , but for ourselves , in a way that we can benefit . If you โ re not there yet , you will be with time and embodiment work . And if you are wanting to end it all , I feel compelled to urge you to ask for help from healthcare providers - or go to a local emergency care place as a start , to make sure that it does n โ t Lucie November 25 , 2015 at 3 : 04 pm Thank you so much for writing this . I needed to read this . I โ ve been exploring the fact that I โ m empath and this read pretty much nailed how I feel . I have health issues , lupus , that are emotionally triggered . I โ m currently in an acute flare with kidney involvement but I know exactly why it โ s come about . Patrick November 27 , 2015 at 5 : 32 am Hey , I โ m a 19 year old male and I was brought to tears by this article ( which is extremely unusual for me ) . Commenting on articles on websites other than FB is also unusual for me . I โ ve been an empath for as long as I can remember , but I have always felt strong anger towards certain people in my life that I could n โ t get away from , mostly my mother . After reading this , I โ m realizing that the anger was rarely my own , and when it came from within me , it was stemming from my need to avoid the constant energy - drain of being the sole provider of my mother โ s emotional support , even as a small child . Of course , this lack of energy coupled with sudden outbursts of anger ( when I reeeeally needed space ) was labeled as mental illness . Yes , I was extremely depressed for most of my childhood , but the โ problem โ was not emitting from me , I was simply a relay station . I was hospitalized twice , at ages 10 and 12 , for my โ behavioral problems โ . Naturally , this convinced me that I was just a piece of broken equipment , which led to a long phase of ingesting every drug I ( with the help of close friends , eastern philosophy , and being a hemisphere away from my mom ) I guess at this point I โ m just letting out what I did n โ t realize was bottled up in the first place . and what better way to do that than telling my story to the whole internet , right ? So , thank you for writing this article . I know I โ m not the first to say that and I wo n โ t be the last . And you would be fine if nobody said so . But I โ m thanking you for me . I โ m thanking you because when so , Thank you , I love you , stay blessed . - Patrick December 8 , 2015 at 12 : 35 am Hey Patrick , Thank you for writing in . About a year ago a young guy of 20 came to one of our clinics . In the first 5 minutes it became clear that he was an empath . He was stoked to begin to undestand it and , importantly , talked about the use of cocaine and alcohol to try to regulate his nervous system because he did n โ t know how on his own . This embodiment work is the real deal , and as you say , some of the things that make us feel broken Priyanshi December 8 , 2015 at 11 : 10 am I felt as if what I had been feeling all these years has been summarized here โฆ .I could n โ t really understand and somewhere hated myself .

I โ m a male and as of late have been having a difficult time . I am amazed by people like yourself that take the time to put this kind of information online . Very helpful . Metta . Jean December 9 , 2015 at 7 : 53 pm Hi I found this link by accident , looking up some other information . l came across the word โ empath โ when reading an article which highlighted that many people with Asperger โ s Syndrome are Empaths . This was due to their sensory levels . I think because society do not know enough about these various issues , which I now call gifts and therefore , look upon them as negative , we then become negative , and depressed as that โ s how we interpreted the information given to us . However , I also believe that those same people have a deep yearning to become us . It โ s so important to get to know who you are . Inward first , then outward . We are deep for a reason . If we were n โ t we โ d be like everyone else . The following excerpt kept me strong and I โ ve learned so much about myself in the process . The excerpt : โ Inner strength is better than outer strength , because if you can stay strong inwardly , you can handle anything that comes against you outwardly , and still keep moving forward โ . When I read this I knew deep within me I had something special , as many people would โ ve given up based on external problems coming their way . I wholeheartedly believe things are going to change . We have to now learn how to look after ourselves . Being # 1 ! Although , it may seem hard , its not impossible . Keep focused !

I have been a nurse for over 30 years . I thought I was alone with these feelings and abilities . I would be drained at the end of a shift or week with nothing left for myself or my family . Have been a magnet for family , friends , patients and complete strangers . I felt everyone โ s emotions and pain sometimes just walking by them in a mall , in the hallway of the hospital or at church etc . It has been a burden KW April 7 , 2016 at 4 : 46 am I am so thankful I read this just now . I read a few other sites articles about Empaths and I found myself gasping as I would go down the different checklists of traits of an Emapth . One , because I could n โ t believe I had every single trait and two , that someone had actually verbalized or put into words what I โ ve been feeling my entire life . I was raised by a narcissistic mother . I โ ve known that for about 3 years now . I never could explain the depression , anxiety , โ feeling โ days of the week and seasons , feeling the energy of a room and / or house , knowing immediately when someone is lying and what they are feeling , seeing songs in a specific color ( s ) , garnering an army to feel validated in my anger in blaming someone who has done something hurtful , predicting random events that have nothing to do with me personally I feel validated just by reading this article as well as others on the subject . I do n โ t feel so alone . I am still in my 20 โ s and have had a lot of awakening experiences the last 2 years and feel this discovery is quite poignant . It โ s so helpful knowing I am not crazy , have a disorder or am just a weak / sensitive individual . This is long winded but I just wanted to say thank you for writing this . The comfort of reading others who this also perfectly described makes me feel so much better . May 2 , 2016 at 3 : 59 pm Thank you for publishing this . Until about a year ago , I never knew the actual term to describe myself . I always called it my gift . I have always felt it was a gift God gave me to help others . That God would lay someone on my heart to pray and intercede for them . All things have a cost and one of the costs of this gift is being sometimes swamped by others โ feelings , being immersed into those I care about and losing site of self nourishment of my soul . I give too much of myself sometimes . God Bless ! Jules Little Buddha May 12 , 2016 at 1 : 10 am Do n โ t get rid of it . It โ s not an affliction , it โ s a gift . It took me years to understand that . One of the most powerful gifts , that will allow us to continue to compromise and move forward together . When morality stops being disseminated by books of ages past ; it is those of us who can truly KNOW each other , who must help bridge the gap . Spread the love , your intention is much more powerful than you know . Help reduce our dependency on predeterminations . Understand that suffering , beyond the first glance , is not always so . If you allow pain / suffering to be inevitable , then so to can joy / happiness . Perspective will change the universe . Lou May 18 , 2016 at 4 : 19 pm Today is the first day of the rest of my life . . This is a direct reflection of me , and who I am . I have just never put a label on it .

Try the new article on setting boundaries , now posted above at the end of this blog . Marti August 7 , 2016 at 3 : 21 am I am a 73 year old empath . I am not new to working on self or helping others . For fifty years I have been learning and exploring consciousness , forty of them as a new - age Spiritualist - Lightworker - psychic , teacher , recovering alcoholic , addiction counselor . I sure have used the concepts of over - sensitivity , over - stimulation , lack of boundaries , attempts to numb the pain and many other insights as tools to help myself and others . From what my sisters have indicated and what I remember of Nicole August 11 , 2016 at 8 : 46 am I have n โ t read this whole article . As an empath , I seem able to only handle information in bits and pieces , probably because the emotional influx from the information has to be digested . But I just want to say THANK YOU for writing . Most of my life I felt like a freak ( before I knew I was an empath ) and so alone . Having someone be able to put my experience so perfectly into words is like sending out a lifeline to someone who is drowning in the water . I โ Empaths are unusually vulnerable to emotional contagion , to โ catching โ others โ emotions in much the same way that you โ d catch a cold or flu . But it does n โ t stop there : empaths get physically ill and suffer from anxiety , depression , chronic stress , professional burnout , and pain syndromes more often than their less empathic counterparts . And empaths often need lots of down time after social engagements , โ recovery periods โ at the end of a workday , or extended intervals of being alone .

I have known I was an empath for most of my life ; for a long time I just didnt know it had a name . In my past I have often suffered from mystery illnesses , even going as far as experiencing a heart attack like episode at one point from pulling in the emotions of those I care for so deeply that I felt lost . I knew I had to find a way to disconnect myself but was lost as to the actual procedure . It is one thing to understand that you need a certain thing but wholly another to learn how to practice it . I have recently begun exploring meditation to soothe and let go of the imprints I carry of those around me . It has been helping me to find myself . Another commenter mentioned feeling like a baby robin , and i feel that is so apt . Without the cloak of other people , it can leave you feeling exposed . But suddenly there is also peace inside . I used to escape regularly to forested places , I hope this makes sense lol . I wish you all peace and happiness Resa September 9 , 2016 at 1 : 56 pm Hi I am a high level empath who feels tired when she meditates . There are a few theories : one , I have a weak body . And second , I have a really unguarded aura and people connect with me . Third , healing occurs and it tires my physical body . I do n โ t know hat to do . Can you please guide me and tell me how to go about this ? Thanks September 13 , 2016 at 8 : 34 pm Hi Resa , thank you for writing in . There could be so many things contributing to feeling tired when you meditate ( for example , it could even be just getting in touch with how tired you are , which most of us have trouble doing ) . My best suggestion is to find a meditation teacher , who comes to know you over time and who can join with you in engaging with the ups and downs and insights of your practice . Many blessings !

I live across the country so I ca R December 31 , 2016 at 3 : 03 am i should say i โ m still not really positive i am an empath although a lot of things i โ ve been reading are making so much sense in my life . most articles say the same things about empaths . and on the spiritual path to truth or whatever i โ m on , i notice its easy for me to get swayed and then frustrated by so much advice and theories and terms โฆ .it becomes difficult to trust what โ s real and describes me and will help me , versus what is some โ expert i just want to say that your article is written so amazingly articulate for those unidentifiable things that even all the other stuff i โ ve read on empaths did not address . and you gave real tools . both these facts make it so clear how legit you are as a healer , i guess is the word . while i โ m still so confused about everything and where to go from here , at least i feel a little more confident and solid that this is a legitimate thing ( empaths ) but it can be lived so , thank you , that is encouraging . i wonder if you can answer โ is being an empath on a spectrum ? as in , i have a lot of the exact same traits of empaths , but i do n โ t know that i directly feel other people โ s emotions that are near me . i feel usually that i can read people well once they start interacting with me , and they are drawn to me and they do drain me , but i just end up dealing with it by being fake / manipulative or suppressing all feelings and try to keep also โ might you be able to recommend any kind of trainings or workshops or classes for โ new โ empaths in the NY or DC areas ? thank you so much . Bacharel em Teologia January 4 , 2017 at 3 : 37 pm Thank you for sharing ! Jennifer January 8 , 2017 at 12 : 50 am I am an empath . I live in Tamarac , Florida . I โ m a cosmetology instructor . I am having a very difficult time right now . I am running on fumes . I look and feel like an empty vessel . I โ m barely making it through my daily routine . Are there any support groups for people like us ? I Want / need to meet other empaths โฆ Any advice ? Eugene January 13 , 2017 at 11 : 26 pm There is no way of shutting it down or ignoring it or just letting it go but not looking โฆ Trust me I tried , the thing , s this is not something to be tained , controlled or changed because this is what makes you wel . . you โฆ Let โ s imagine ourselves that the entire planet is just an ocean of emotions feelings and thoughts โฆ Being an empath does n โ t means that you have to absorbe and become a part of this ocean just feeling the things you want โฆ Being an empath is not about healing others or feeling what others feels those are just humanity โ s adaptation to that and there is no proper usage for the entire thing because this is just a part of you that simply has more power than you or anyone can imagine and since everyone are afraid of what they ca n โ t understand they are trying to create things that would hurt , limit , overpover psychologically and etc โฆ To be logical being an empath means that you are simply different and have an ability that is powerfull enough to change the world or just to be silenced , it does n โ t means that you have to use it for something or that you will change the world or that you will not be able to do anything it simply means that you have the power and it โ s your decision what to do with it because you are the only one who can be trusted with it โฆ People like us has a gift to see โฆ it what makes us who we are โฆ giving it up or limiting it โฆ is pointless โฆ it will simply surface again โฆ because this is who you are โฆ and no one including you ca n โ t change that โฆ Have a nice day = ) P.S. I โ m 21 year old Male so yeah โฆ males can be empaths too โฆ but it does n โ t means that all males have the power complex โฆ P.S. 2 Might have wrote some word wrong , because English is not my main language โฆ Jeanette March 6 , 2017 at 4 : 09 pm Eugene , You say it is not something to be tamed or controlled but to some of us , yes it is . I have been nearly housebound because of the emotional overload outside over the past 2 plus years ( I โ m blaming trump ) . I had to find ways to control it before depression took over , as it was beginning to . I am still working on controlling it , I need to learn some good yoga and meditation to quiet the urge to cry or scream . So far I have found an amazing Carla Duvall January 14 , 2017 at 3 : 46 pm This Article ! is so right - on . .it โ s changed something in me . I am so at a lost for words . Thank You from my heart of hearts Sherry February 2 , 2017 at 3 : 40 am I work at a vet clinic and there are times animals have to be put to sleep or die from sickness . Feeling the sadness and devastation people feel is exhausting . Over the years I โ ve learned to close my mind so I do n โ t feel everything he quite so much . Recently we hired a new employee who I have found hard to block . She lacks empathy and compassion and I have never in my life met anyone so cold inside . It โ s gotten so bad that I โ ve been applying Heidi Keryan May 23 , 2017 at 3 : 07 pm Is there ANYWAY to turn it off ? I dont want to be an empath , and while I am not 100 % certain that I am , all described above is me . I dont want it , it causes more conflict and stress then the life I live . I just want to be oblivious , like everyone else . Is there anyway to get rid of it ? Micky July 25 , 2017 at 11 : 06 pm So , I have a friend with horrible depression and I want to be there for her and help her but I do n โ t know how to be there for her when she needs me without sinking into depression myself . I โ ve been trying to stay positive and keep myself surrounded by positive energy but I also want to be a good friend and be there for her . Help !

The most important thing is that boundaries are a living , breathing , practice and they take time to instill into and through the body . Good luck ! Stephanie August 21 , 2017 at 2 : 47 am I am 49 years old . This has been my life . I am just discovering who I am . I cried when I read this . I have never understood what was โ wrong with me โ . I โ ve just recently learned I โ m an empath . It โ s been hard to accept , but also a relief to know . I googled โ how to stop being an empath โ and this came up โฆ and I want to say thank you . Thank you . It was an incredible read of knowing I can have a little control over it . CM September 6 , 2017 at 9 : 04 am This article is comforting to read after an emotionally exhausting month helping out my mother with some things she needs to work on and an emotionally exhausting day when the puppy I fostered was fetched by the foundation facilitating her adoption . i am extremely grateful for this read as it encapsulates a lot of things I have been going through and a lot of things I have been learning and working on . Thank you ! Mel September 13 , 2017 at 5 : 43 am Another empath checking in . I โ ve been trying to figure this whole thing out . First , everything about my life suddenly made so much sense when I first recognized that I fit the empath profile . But then โฆ all this advice online about shielding and grounding really do n โ t work in the long run because you have to keep at it forever . They โ re bandaid solutions . There had to be another way , so I keep searching and practicing . A few things that stick out to me that other people have written and that I โ ve come across on blogs and sites ( including this one ) : โ Often empaths will shut off and go the complete opposite way in order to protect themselves . I actually did this for years and it made me numb and WAY less empathetic . I hated it โ life was so bleak and colorless . So there must be a balance between absorbing everything and becoming a straight up numb / apathetic jerk . โ On absorbing emotions and energies : seriously , why ? I do n โ t think this is what makes an empath โฆ I know we have that ability , but that ability is there whether we ABSORB the energy or we recognize and interpret it without making it ours or inviting it in . The working theory so far is that we absorb it because it was useful once upon a time . And it goes back to our childhoods , many of us had a difficult one . I think by absorbing what others in the family โ We seem to either be intense or shut down . I can totally relate to that . So โฆ okay . We all know that stable relationships are more โ even โ and that intimacy is like a slow - burning fire rather than this huge intense leap . The key here is growing reciprocity . Do n โ t fly off the handle and jump in with both feet , going from 0 to 100 real quick . Lord knows that โ s gotten me in trouble before โฆ turns out those people were no good for me โ Leaky , shaky boundaries . This is a big one and relates to the previous point . Like I said , we left the gates open for a long time and absorbing has become automatic . It โ s constant hard work to reverse this and deal with all the guilt of setting boundaries but I โ ve been pretty successful so far โฆ . guilt is almost 0 at this point , it โ s really just a very faint feeling that comes rarely now . It โ s doable . โ We * need * connection to something otherwise we feel the void . This highly correlates with having a purpose outside of people / relationships ( that is , having this deep connection to a hobby of sorts โฆ . like maybe music or programming or drawing or nature or animals , among other things ) and also building self worth by REALLY getting to know and connecting with oneself and how we feel , not how others feel . The focus has to be brought back into ourselves . We have to constantly check in with ourselves on When I imagine it , it โ s like we are sucking everyone else โ s stuff , letting it inside and feeling hollow โฆ because there โ s no room for our own stuff . What it should look like is first closing the gate , allowing our energy to grow from the inside ( our own thoughts , feelings , and beliefs ) and maintaining it centered in ourselves and emanating it out instead of having it collapse on itself . โ We must come to terms with our own pain . Face it . Fully face it . โ The shadow โ so to speak . And integrate . This was a biggie for me . I โ m past the integration at this point , but I still have lots of polishing and finishing touches to do . โ Shields do n โ t work for me , they โ re just blocking things and people out . Selectively choosing when and HOW MUCH to open the gates seems to be the way to go about it . I have to remind myself that there must be reciprocity , otherwise I โ d open the gate a bit too much . It โ s not a switch you can turn on and off , it โ s more like a dial you have to keep in check , consciously ( which can be tiring ) . So far โ Remind yourself to stay in your body . This is also huge and I โ m so glad the article covers this repeatedly . We empaths have developed the need to be in our heads , thinking and ruminating and living in this sort of hazy mental soup that can feel really good sometimes and bad other times . Gosh , I still remember when it used to make me feel so heavy because I โ d dedicate so much energy to these mental tasks and carry so much weight . Now , I can โ snap out of โ All that said , I think once we have these down , it should be much easier to be in a crowded place and not have to go into hiding soon after and extensively recharge . I refuse to believe that we are โ cursed โ with that . Good luck everyone . Always remember we โ re all in this together .

http://bogglesworldesl.com/esl_science/reptiles_and_amphibians.htm | A Gecko A Salamander Introduction : In this lesson , we are going to examine reptiles and amphibians . Above is a picture of a gecko and a salamander . At first glance , they seem quite similar . But , in fact , they are quite different . A gecko is a reptile and a salamander is an amphibian . What are reptiles and amphibians ? Well , perhaps , it is best to show you some examples of reptiles and amphibians before we discuss what they are . Reptiles : Snakes , lizards , turtles , tortoises , crocodiles , and alligators are all reptiles . A Snake A Turtle A crocodile Amphibians : Frogs , toads , salamanders , and caecilians are all amphibians . A salamander A toad A frog ( c ) 2003 www . bogglesworldesl . com The Differences Between Reptiles and Amphibians : So back to the original question : if a gecko and a salamander look so similar , how come they are so different ? Maybe , the answer is where they live . Salamanders live in water but geckos live on land . What do you think ? Actually , where they live is not the answer since toads are amphibians , but they live on land . And turtles are reptiles , but they live in water . Tadpoles : The larval stage of frogs Well , if the answer is not where they live , then what is it ? There are several differences but the most important is when they are born . Reptiles are born in eggs on land and amphibians are born in eggs in the water . And because amphibians are born in water they have gills when they are young , whereas reptiles have lungs . In fact , amphibians are a lot like fish when they are first born , but when they grow , they become more like reptiles . The early stage of amphibians is called larval stage . Tadpoles are the larval stage of frogs . There are other differences and similarities , too . Both amphibians and reptiles are cold - blooded vertebrates , or animals with backbones . However , amphibians have moist skin with no fur or scales . And amphibians use their skin for breathing and drinking water . On the other hand , reptiles usually have dry skin that is covered in scales . Make a Chart Showing the Differences : Reptiles Amphibians Examples Similarities Differences www . bogglesworldesl . com Poison Dart Frogs : Poison dart frogs live in the tropical rainforests of Central and South America . They are called poison dart frogs because they are poisonous and the indigenous people use this toxin to hunt animals . They put this poison on their blow darts and then shoot the animals out of the tree . The toxin comes from the frog โ s skin . Poison dart frogs are very colorful , which helps them warn other animals not to eat them . They live for about 10 years and eat insects such as ants and termites . They spend most of their time on the moist floor of the rainforest . Hunting with poison darts . The most remarkable thing about poison dart frogs is how they take care of their young . After the eggs are laid and the tadpoles hatch , one of the adult frogs puts the tadpoles on it โ s back and carries the tadpoles to plants high in the canopy . These plants have pockets of water trapped within cuplike leaves . The adult will put the young tadpoles into many different plants to increase the chances of survival . Comprehension Questions : Why are they called poison dart frogs ? What part of the frog is poisonous ? What do they eat ? Where do they live ? Why are they remarkable ? www . bogglesworldesl . com Vocabulary : What do these words mean ? indigenous people : __________________________________________ toxin : termite : moist : ___________________________________________________ remarkable : ______________________________________________ tadpole : _________________________________________________ hatch : __________________________________________________ canopy : __________________________________________________ Herpetology : Herpetology is the study of reptiles and amphibians .

A job that helps other people ? I would / would n โ t like to be a herpetologist because ( c ) 2003 www . bogglesworldesl . com | [
