Understanding Tuskegee's Legacy (Part 1)
First of two parts.
Four decades after the Tuskegee experiments ended, during a workshop on health literacy and informed consent, Dr. Alicia Fernandez of UC San Francisco said something remarkable and even chilling.
"That story," she said of the infamous research, "most of my (medical) residents don't know it.
"I guess they didn't read the paper that day," she added in disbelief. "But my patients know it."
At Tuskegee, the subjects knew neither the title of the research ("Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male") nor that they'd even been diagnosed with syphilis. When penicillin was found effective for syphilis, they continued to be studied but not treated with it. They suffered, infected others, and many died. This went on for 40 years, with government support.
The research began at the time Nazi doctors were engaged in the infamous work that resulted in the Nuremberg Code. But Tuskegee is in America, and the research continued long past the Nuremberg verdicts. (Good sources for learning about Tuskegee are here and here.)
Though the men apparently participated willingly, they were lied to about what they were participants in. And so it was fitting that the workshop at the Institute of Medicine in Washington, D.C., coincided with the anniversary of Tuskegee's end, on July 29, 1972. Tuskegee holds valuable lessons in health literacy, informed consent and the importance of understanding how they relate.
There is no overstating Tuskegee's legacy of distrust in medicine. Of the major principles of medical ethics -- respect for persons, or autonomy; do no harm; do good; and justice -- Tuskegee betrayed all four.
Disparities in research and treatment are hot policy topics in medicine, and new doctors should understand their inheritance of patient distrust. Dr. Fernandez's revelation indicates that short memory is another legacy of Tuskegee.
While the D.C. workshop took place, a group of physicians, scientists and interested others participated in a Twitter dialogue about Tuskegee. The events were unrelated, and yet many of the issues raised during the former, including low participation in research among blacks, were addressed in the latter.
"Even growing up my parents told me about this," one participant tweeted. "Many blacks know of it and fear any 'research' about them."
The TweetChat was organized around the hashtag #NSTNSchat. The acronym stands for National Science & Technology News Service, devoted to inspiring academic and professional interest among African-Americans in science, technology, engineering and math, or STEM for short.
"Are African-Americans still afraid of being exploited by science?" #NSTNSchat participants were asked. The answer is yes, but there is much more to it, and the dialogue was rich with insights into the role and importance of bioethics, strategies for affectively addressing health disparities and distrust, and the need for more African-American STEM specialists.
Key players behind the dialogue were Dr. Caleph Wilson of the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton sociologist and author Ruha Benjamin and Dr. A. Breland-Noble of Georgetown. So engaged was this TweetChat, with so many different voices, that it went well beyond its allotted time.
The #NSTNSchat transcript is long and has many threads. So I tried something different in writing about it. I captured many of the main tweets and edited them into story form. It is constructed of the actual tweets, mostly verbatim, with some editing mainly to spell out abbreviations and acronyms, add punctuation and subtract redundancy. Context might change some from the original dialogue, and the tweets are presented as one voice, not multiple authors.
The composite story appears in the blog post below. The original Tweets, and their authors, can be found on the Storify transcript.

Starting with the historical backdrop of the Tuskegee study from its pre-penicillin time, Reverby clarifies the first plan of PHS and how the study began. The syphilis study was made conceivable with the collaboration of the Tuskegee Institute and dark doctors and medical caretakers, as opposed to what is usually accepted as white specialists subjecting blacks to their examination purposes.ReplyDelete

Grooming your pet should be undertaken all year around but in the spring and fall it's important to prepare them for the coming months.
The winter and spring months will include a lot of shedding and new growth of hair to see them through the season.
Grooming your pet with the proper equipment such as de-shedding tool will help keep the hair under control and off your carpet and floors.
When your pet is spruced up and feeling clean, they are much happier. When you groom them you'll see the difference when you're done. If they roll in the dirt every time you clean them up, their skin is itchy, just like yours and you should change the type of shampoo you use.
Their coat and skin should be glossy and they should only itch the same amount as humans, after all, people itch once in a while and so should your pet. If they itch constantly, then they have a problem with either insects (fleas or ticks or both) or the type of shampoo and/or conditioner is causing their skin to dry out.
A clean pet leads to better behavior and a happier pet. Using the following tips to keep your pet happy, healthy and wise.
Choose the right equipment – use the right tool for the job, whether it's to brush them or de-shed them of hair. Not all brushes work for all types of hair. Use one or all of the following:
Clip toe nails – use a good nail clipper to keep the nails from problems and keep your carpet from snagging.
Use a chamois – A chamois will polish your pet's coat and give it a glossy sheen.
Regular grooming keeps your pet healthy.
Eliminating dirt and grime – Pets feel dirty and unclean when they aren't groomed regularly. Just like humans eliminating particles of dirt and grime from their coats will keep them from itchy skin and parasites. Your pet will feel more comfortable when it's bathed regularly.
Keep them safe from infections – It's safer and protects them from infections caused by fleas and other parasites. It also keeps the health issues away from your and the kids. It stops insects from falling off onto your carpet or floors.
Prevent incoming problems – Prevents potential problems when you groom your pet regularly. You'll be able to identify any flea or tick outbreaks or infections on your pet while you groom them.
Keep allergies down – Grooming keeps your pet's allergies down, if they have them. These days, more animals are suffering from allergies due to pet foods and other chemicals in the air. Keeping them clean of dander and dead hair, gives your pet better health.
Clean the coat – Grooming slows down the amount of dead hair, dander, and other debris from your floor and your pet.
Keep them order-free – grooming removes odors from your pet that could be a reason why you stop having visitors. Not everyone likes the order of pets. Grooming them keeps them smelling nice and fresh.
Brushing for health – Brushing increases blood and lymphatic flow encouraging circulation. Circulation encourages a clean, healthy coat.
Disease free – Keeps your pet disease free while removing pest that may affect your pet's health.
Creates a bond – Helps with the interaction between you and your pet. Grooming gives time for you and your pet to bond on a deeper level. Knowing you care about your pet gives the animal much more security and caring. They like comfort as much as humans.
Use the following to groom your pet:
Use a grooming schedule to keep your pet's emotional and physical health intact. Also, don't forget to feed them a good supply of healthy food that doesn't contain chemicals or artificial colorings or flavors. The better the food – the better for your pet's health.
Your pet's health depends on keeping clean including removing tangles, particles and pests. While you're grooming your pet, you can check for fleas and ticks, which can make your pet's life miserable. Not to mention your home due to the insects infesting your carpet and floor. Fleas and ticks can hide anywhere and come to life when you least expect them too, making your life as miserable as your pets.
Winter and spring are some of the best times to give your pet a checkup for the upcoming months. They should visit the vet for a checkup. These are the months when the hair falls out and new hair begins to grow. Brushing them in these months will keep the hair from your floor and you're your pet.
You can do it yourself and once or twice a month they should be bathed, whether they like it or not. Mostly, they won't like it, but it keeps the clean and healthy.

"Twelve on the Twelfth" is a photography challenge that invites us to take twelve photos on the twelfth of each month. I thought I'd try something a little different this month and go on a photo scavenger hunt, for the items in the song "Twelve Days of Christmas."
1. A partridge in a pear tree
The zoo seemed like a logical place to look for birds. And behold, they did, in fact, have a very shy partridge. As for the pears, let's just say those are hiding, too.
2. Turtledoves
I couldn't find any turtle doves, but I found some emerald doves, which, I am assured, are just as nice as turtle doves.
3. French Hens
The zoo had partridges, turtles, and doves, but there were no chickens to be found, neither foreign nor domestic. I found this one at the side of the road. I'm pretty sure it's French, as it's wearing a bowtie and a chef's hat.
4. Collie birds
I have always sung this line of the song as "Four calling birds," but Wikipedia assures me that the canonical line is "Four collie birds." Collie bird is apparently an old term for a blackbird. These are actually starlings, but as you can see, they are birds, and they are black.
5. Golden rings
Golden brown, and delicious. Next!
6. Geese a-Layin'
This is a goose. As you can see, it's not laying right now. Eventually, it'll tucker out and lay down for a nap. Oh, wait, you want one that lays eggs? Well, it will probably do that sooner or later, too. Unless it's a boy.
7. Swans a-Swimmin'
I couldn't find a single, solitary swan. So here's a giraffe. They're sort of similar.
8. Maids a-Milkin'
Milk maids were even harder to find than swans. So here's a Dairy Queen. Think of it as a promotion. Maid to queen, milk to dairy. Or don't. Whatever.
9. Ladies Dancing
Tonight, the part of the dancer will be played by Loretta, the Lego Lariateer.
10. Lords a-Leapin'
It's supposed to be the Tenth Doctor about to swing from a strand of Christmas lights. It's funny because he's a Time Lord and he's also leaping, and oh, never mind…
11. Drummers Drumming
Drummers? Check. Fancy uniforms? Check! Flag-waver? Bonus!
12. Pipers Piping
Do you want to know what's unfair? There are just as many pipers in the song as there are partridges, but the pipers only get one mention, whereas the partridges get mentioned twelve times. Those pipers need to get a better agent.
So there you have it. Most of the items from "The Twelve Days of Christmas." If I were the recipient, I'd keep my receipt!

Personal Leadership
So, you have realized that you are not likely to become the next five-star general in the U.S. Army or the next CEO of GE or the Governor of the great state of …. However, that doesn't mean that you are not a leader and can not develop or enhance leadership traits that can be used to lead your work partners, family or little league team to new levels of achievement. Many of the leadership traits of major historical leaders are a combination of personality and learned leadership skills. That combination of personal attributes and leadership skills is what allows an individual to rise to the top of their professions, nations or organizations for good or for bad.
You might be thinking that you are lacking the great oratory skills of a Churchill, the political skills of a Jefferson, the military skills of a Napoleon, or even the administrative skills of an Eisenhower and that you will never be a great leader. Don't fall into that trap. As I said, there are very few who have the right combination of personality and skills to become elevated to the very highest positions in business and government. The fact remains though that you have the greatest chance to impact the people around you by using focused direct leadership with your family, civic organizations and the people who you work with on a day-to-day basis.
Each one of us has the opportunity to exercise leadership each and everyday that we interact with other people. Personal leadership is the day-to-day leadership that makes meetings, projects and tasks develop and execute more effectively because of the leadership that you bring to the group's task.
A few important items that each person can focus on with little reliance to charisma, oratory ability or other more obvious personality traits are:
- Vision
- Standards
- Execution
To influence these areas of your groups, family, work teams, etc you need to understand the current level of these items. Once you have a clear understanding of the Vision, Standards and Execution for your group then you can develop the framework to change the culture and mechanisms to elevate the group's performance. The absolute great thing is that these items can be influenced by you without needing to be a supper charismatic individual or have the ability to inspire your team with great and profound speeches. You identify your group's level and then work to implement the change (but only if change is needed)…hence personal leadership.
Now let me define a bit more about what I mean about Vision, Standards and execution:
Vision is map of the world and goals are the compass. The vision of the group or even your family maybe informal, not documented or small in scale and that is all right. However, I bet no matter how small the group is that there is a shared or collective vision for that group. It is important that you really be able to understand the group's vision before you can enhance it.
Standards are the expected rules of behavior and acceptable level of work related results for your group. When joining a team, business or family unit, it is important to first learn what the current standards of behavior and work related results are and then use whatever your leadership skills to implement change to higher standards if that is what the situation calls for.
Execution is the result of the goals and actions of your group. These actions are the "why" your group exists. For example, if you are a homebuilding company, how you build homes is the execution of why your company exists. Once you are known as someone who can meet the expected level of execution for your team, then you can use your influence and credibility to develop a culture that strives to increase the efficiency of the execution of the organization's goals.
The great thing about personal or small group leadership is that you rely less on trying to be the "larger than life" leader. Instead, you use your personal relationship with the members of the group to effect the change that you identify needs to be implemented. As you set about increasing the efficiency and direction of the groups that you are involved with, you will find that exercising your leadership muscle will build and you will be provided with opportunities to lead even larger groups, which will present you with greater challenges for personal growth.
How are you going to set about increasing the Vision, Standards and Execution of your team, work group or even family? We would love to hear about your successes in leading others to excellence.

I'm always writing lists. I feel like I need to write things down just so I can get some satisfaction about checking them off!
I'm trying to get my unorganised life back on track and I always cope best at doing things by making plans and writing them down. So I'm going to bore everyone by writing it straight onto my blog! Maybe I can encourage others to become more organised!
First thing I want to concentrate on is ME TIME! I feel like I really need it! I'm fed up of drinking cold cups of tea! I find I get 5 minutes so I put the kettle on! 5 boils later I might make that cup of tea. But it will be cold by the time I drink it!
So recently I've boiled the kettle when I've got the chance and only filled my mug up 3/4 full. Then I've topped it up with cold water which means I can drink it straight away! I might even have a slice of cake with it as well!
I'm going to try and make 15 minutes for myself at least once a day to sit and read a magazine, surf the net or if its a nice day sit outside and stare into the blue sky. The days when I'm childminding I'll have to wait until all mindees have gone home and then I might just put my kids in front of the television to watch 3 peppa pig episodes! Today for example my minded child left at 12. Baby penguin is napping and toddler penguin is a bit under the weather so is watching Frozen! I've actually given myself 30 minutes of computer time! I have 5 minutes left and I need to do some banking!
On another note I'm off to New York at the end of the month. No children allowed! I'm only going for a long weekend but I so need it and I can not wait!!!!!

For people studiously following Rennes' youth academy in recent seasons, it was a case of when rather than if Ousmane Dembele would break on to the Ligue 1 scene.
Scouts of several top European clubs have kept tabs on the slick-footed youngster since his early teens, with Arsenal among those interested . Yet the 18-year-old attacker's impact in a few short months has taken even the keenest observers by surprise.
Since his Ligue 1 debut in November 2015, Dembele has dazzled crowds across France and in front of an increasingly interested international television audience. As well as his dribbling skills, he has scored 10 times in only 15 starts and four substitute appearances at a rate of a goal every 134 minutes. To put those figures in context, only one Ligue 1 player that has reached double figures for goals has netted at a better rate than Dembele – Zlatan Ibrahimovic .
Dembele made his France U21 debut against Scotland on Thursday night amid growing talk he may be fast-tracked into Didier Deschamps' France squad for the Euro 2016 finals. And frankly, given how he's playing, who could blame Deschamps for making the teenager his wildcard pick?
Style of play
Dembele's ability to glide past players is his stand-out strength, evidenced by the formidable highlights package he's built up of him beating opponents with ease. He's excellent at isolating opposing defenders in one-on-one situations and getting beyond them before either bearing down on goal or setting up a chance for a team-mate. His two-footedness – way above average – makes it difficult for defenders to predict which way he will go.
Dembele's finishing is the second string to his bow. One of his 10 Ligue 1 strikes was a penalty and another took a deflection; otherwise it's been great movement and top-class strikes all the way. There was the dribble and blast from close range, the first-time pass into the net after dashing on to a through ball. Best of all was the audacious outside-of-the-foot effort that faded past Nantes goalkeeper Remy Riou before the beleaguered shot-stopper had worked out what was going on.
Young players often display a pure joy of playing that deserts them in later years. Right now Dembele loves every minute he's on the pitch. The energy and enthusiasm he brings to games help to explain why he seems on-point no matter what the game-state or what situation he finds himself in. He scored within 60 seconds against Nantes (March 6), going on to complete a hat-trick before half-time. Against Toulouse (February 27), he struck a last-minute equaliser.
Against Lille (February 7) he sent Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama – one of Ligue 1's best stoppers – the wrong way with an 89th-minute penalty. It spoke volumes about his on-pitch insouciance, not to mention the esteem in which his team-mates and the Rennes coaching staff hold him, that it was Dembele rather than someone else that was sent up to dispatch that late spot-kick to earn his side a 1-1 draw.
Does Dembele always make the right decisions? No – but then that's what you expect of an 18-year-old. Occasionally he picks the wrong pass, holds on to possession too long or tries to beat one man too many.
But in a way it merely shows how remarkable his output is that he makes the wrong call now and again and yet has still managed to be so effective in the final third. His awareness will undoubtedly continue to improve through playing more games.
What they say about him
France coach Didier Deschamps: "He's quick, gets behind defences and he's got two good feet. He can play in all three attacking positions. Is it too soon [to get a France call-up]? It depends on the competition. But obviously I'm watching him."
Rennes coach Rolland Courbis: "A €35million offer for Ousmane Dembele? That would be only the first part of the transfer fee!"
What next?
Such is the speculation surrounding the player, Dembele was forced to deny last week that a deal was already in place for him to join Bayern Munich next season. He is likely to attract genuine interest from Europe's super-clubs this summer, with Barcelona also reportedly tracking the youngster.
If remains to be seen whether he stays at Rennes for one more season, moves to an intermediary club in France or abroad or makes the leap straight to one of the continent's elites.
What is clear, however, is that France has produced yet another top-class attacking talent to follow in the footsteps of Anthony Martial and Kingsley Coman.

Project B Pregnancy Box Review
June 25, 2014 in Gifts, Maternity, Parenting
Back in April we included the Project B pregnancy subscription box in our What We're Loving Feature (if you missed it you can find it here). The lovely folk at Project B sent us a box to review this month and I'm (Liz) really impressed.
Just to set the scene… At twenty two weeks pregnant, I'd just picked up my son (five) early from school with a sickness bug, and was attempting to settle him on the settee whilst trying to explain to my three-year-old daughter that I really wasn't able to play a game right now and "yes, of course I'll help you at the toilet for the third time in the last twenty minutes" when the doorbell rang. Just what I needed! So, after a quick dart to the front door past Jonny who looked like he might throw up any second, a scribbling of my signature on the delivery man's computer, a dumping of the parcel next to the door and a run back to the toilet hoping that there wasn't complete carnage, calm descended on the house as Mr Bloom and his friends on CBeebies provided at least some comfort to all three of us. As the third programme started my mummified brain considered that rather than watching the fun down on 'Big Barn Farm' I could, in fact, retrieve the parcel and at least have a moment of excitement opening it.
To be honest, I had a little tear in my eye when I realised the parcel was full of treats for me! Just me! (Including the chocolate). All for me! A little bit of luxury in a manic world thanks to the producers of the 'Project B' boxes. At that moment I could have hugged them. The beauty of the box is that all the products are instantly usable (especially the chocolate) and just make you feel that little bit better about life in general. The box is carefully customised to suit your stage of pregnancy, each box with its own theme. I was sent Month 6 which has has the theme Energise.
I'm not a particularly cosmetic person and generally a bit of shower gel and moisturiser is all my face is treated to as I don't tend to get too many spots. This is, however, until pregnancy loomed once again and I literally wake up with about three new spots every day. So, some proper face wash has been on my shopping list for the past six weeks. The delight at having two pots of Urban Veda Purifying Facial Wash and Exfoliating Facial Polish magically appear in front of me was almost too much for this hormonal mother to bear. I've read the science bit about anti-aging, detoxifying, antibacterial etc. but, to be blunt, I don't really care about that at the moment. It feels great and has helped to make me look slightly less like a spotty teenager so I'm ecstatic. The scientists can deal with the science and I will take advantage.
As for the Femfresh Daily Intimate Wash, it is very gentle indeed and I am a convert. Soap-free and you know it's suitable for pregnancy. Brilliant!
Also on my shopping list for weeks has been stretch mark cream. Once again two pots (of APOTHEDERM Stretch Mark Cream) magically appeared and I'm hoping the end result will be my stomach looking less like a road map of Great Britain… Lots of science to support all the advantages and one mum who is delighted to use it but needs to use all the brain power she can muster to get the next lot of sick clothes in the washing machine…
The gems at Teapigs have come up with a brilliant selection of caffeine-free 'tea temples' and I received 'peppermint leaves' for sore tummies, 'lemon & ginger' for a summery taste, and 'superfruit' for an antioxidant boost. I've never been too keen on herbal teas but I have to admit even I was impressed with these ones and it makes a difference from drinking decaf builders brew. They seem to be quite posh and my mum loved tasting them.
How clever of Project B to know that one chocolate bar would not be enough and so included two. Of course, the fact that it is Divine Chocolate means you can eat it in one sitting with a clear conscience that it is Fairtrade, and so you are actually doing a good thing by eating it! I had toffee and sea salt flavour which was really nice.
Over the years I have reviewed a few pregnancy books and this one, What to Buy For Your Baby is definitely one of my favourites. There are few books that manage to balance giving information without giving bias, but this one really does and I wish I'd had it during my first pregnancy. Liat Huges Joshi and Caroline Cosgrove present facts and you choose what is right for you. I particularly liked the chapter on bottle versus breast feeding, where they offer advice on what 'equipment' you need for both but do not enter into a debate on what is best. Rather, they acknowledge that some women find breast feeding enjoyable and easy, whilst for others it is very problematic. The same is true for disposable versus washable nappies.
They use their own experience, mixed with a range of other mums, to work through what is best for you and what, in their opinion, is a complete waste of money. They list lots of possibilities for you to consider buying and put a tick, cross or question mark beside it based upon whether they think it necessary. I especially like the list for nursery furniture which has a lot of possibilities and only two ticks for 'cot' and 'storage'. This book is fabulous and I will certainly buy a copy for newly-pregnant friends.
There were also some added extras in the box with some samples of PG Tips 'Green Tea' and 'Red Berries' Tea, plus a bottle of WaterBaby Calm Pregnancy Care Drink. This was, to my surprise, really tasty with a good punch of ginger and lemon. I've never seen a drink purely produced for pregnant women and I'm really impressed. Not only does it make you hydrate your body, but it includes lots of nutrients for pregnancy and the recommended amount of folic acid. It's designed for breast feeding too so I'm definitely going to stock up on it.
What I really like about the Project B box is that it comes with a few leaflets of information which are useful, but you're not overwhelmed with vouchers for 5p off or subject to lots of 'in-your-face' advertising. There is a short description of the products so you quickly read about them and there are links to each one so you can buy them or just find out more about them. Also, in this box, are leaflets with advice on buggies, recipe ideas, staying healthy and the fact that baby is about the size of a grapefruit. Again, no hard-sell; just useful information.
I really like this box and when my sisters or brother decide it's time to produce some cousins I will definitely be signing them up. The Month 6 box has a beautifully balanced range of products, it's clear that Project B really put a lot of thought into their boxes.
It is true that some women bloom in pregnancy. I am not one of them, and though I am truly grateful for the baby developing now, I spend the entire nine months feeling pretty rubbish, feeling sick and sore. In this manic world of parenthood and pregnancy it's lovely to feel pampered for a few moments too. Thank you!

The following reflection is an excerpt from His Grace Bishop Seraphim Sigrist's 2017 book Tapestry, in which he reflects upon themes of peace and conflict as they are seen through the lens of two apple orchards.
The apples are gone now from the tree out front . . . These orchards from other years and other places. . . The tree here today standing between the seasons. Those trees which seem in memory to suggest not only the past but also the future.
Butovo: Apples Falling from the Past
In the afternoon we travel from Moscow to Butovo a place to the south of Moscow which was a killing ground used by the Communists for people from the Moscow area, and in particular in 1937 and 1938.
On the way a lady speaks of Fr. Pavel Florensky's scientific work on seawater during the days before his execution in the northern Solovki camp, and of his intention to do a second volume of Pillar and Ground of Truth, this time focused on humanity, as the first is on God. Since we do not have it, drafts were destroyed, we do not know what the final position of his thought was. Then she says we are getting near Butovo and she wishes to be silent for these moments.
There is a new church and a bell tower and there are stones with the inscriptions of many names of those murdered here. In the church the attendants tell us that the names of 10,000 are known but countless others unknown. Included are 900 bishops and priests. Enough record remains of them,that 250 of the 10,000 here have been formally recognized as saints by the Church. 10,000 in the Moscow region in 1937-1938 in just this one place. Think of the whole land and of the whole Communist period.
But we will remember also the day when they will return, and all our mothers and fathers and brothers and sisters and ourselves also will return. I think of Peter de Vries, who wrote, "The recognition of how long, how very long, is the mourners' bench upon which we sit, arms linked in undeluded friendship—all of us, brief links ourselves, in the eternal pity," and so it is not wrong that there are flowers and apple trees also even, beside a mourners bench long enough to stretch to Eden where there were also apples and flowers, or perhaps, indeed, it must be the same garden because it will return. Will return and has returned. We walk in the apple orchard,and there are flowers now and apples on the trees. When we leave, ladies from the church follow us to the gate with a big plate of apples newly fallen, and we eat them in the car. Someone says,"Every centimeter of this place is soaked with blood . . . eating these apples is like communion."
Krakow: Apples Falling from the Future
Now we have come to the chalet-like retreat center of Andrej and Samita on a hillside near the ancient Polish city of Krakow. Here we will spend the night. It is a good place with apple trees everywhere and I know I must be deeply feeling it a good place because I feel the desire to climb the trees,as when a boy. We sit around a table under the trees,and there is nothing lacking,and the apples are falling continually. This year there are more than ever, it seems, now one falls, now three but it almost seems they are growing faster than falling and how perfect and round they are and how fine the taste . . . and there is watermelon and coffee too and talk about interior monasticism. . . and Andrej says . . . we must open ourselves to God who is coming not from the past but from the future . . .apples falling like cherry blossoms into, or rather from,a future momentarily at least made present in love and peace.
And under the apple trees Anika played the guitar and sang beneath the weaving branches.
The next morning we spread a cloth on a table in the middle of the orchard and in the early bright light do our service of shared bread and wine . . . Apples falling still . . . some great joyful mystery in these ripening and falling apples somehow offering themselves as we offer all things as best we can . . .and again the growth seeming to more than keep pace with the falling . . .a circulation of heaven and earth. Our host Andrej says in conversation after that there is much writing about Spirit, about the Holy Spirit, about Pneumatology as it is called, but this is to make it an abstraction and an object not the subject, not the One who acts. . . what is needed he said is "Pneumatics," the seeing of the Spirit's operation in persons and in the world . . .

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
How would you like to eat broccoli while smelling strawberries or chomp on an olive while the scent of vanilla wafts into your nostrils? You wouldn't? Well, perhaps you would like to experience wasabi-scented potatoes without buying any actual wasabi or enjoy a caprese salad even though you are all out of fresh basil?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, Molecule-R's new Aromafork may be the product you are looking for. Allowing you to introduce an aroma not provided by your food, the fork has a little slot in which an absorbent disk is placed. One of Molecule-R's many scented oils can then be deposited onto the disk and, as you eat from the fork, the aroma of your chosen oil will flow into your nostrils, "therefore doubling the flavors your brain can analyze!"
Depending on which aromas you pair with the food on your fork, the result can vary from "delightfully strange" to "deeply disturbing." Though it has been dubbed the "Fork That Will Make Kids Eat Their Vegetables," I'm not sure that making kids smell a strawberry-scented oil while eating broccoli is the way to get kids to like broccoli.
It is, however, probably a good way to prank your kids.
This product intrigued me from the beginning. As anyone with a cold will tell you, the smell of your food plays a big role in how it tastes and enjoyed. This kit lets you play around with that, turning your body into a kind of sensory lab where you are the maddest of scientists.
The Aroma Oils
The kit comes with four forks, for tiny pipettes, a whole bunch of absorbent disks, and -- of course -- the following "aromas":
Before I tried any pairing, I took each oil out for a test sniff. Some were much more successful than others. Most triumphant were the herbs and the spices; least successful were the fruits and the beans.
While the basil oil did smell fresh and quite like basil, the strawberry oil smelled less like the fruit and more like strawberry candy. In fact, each fruit aroma smelled syrupy and cloying, making them my least favorite by far.
So it was a mixed bag (or box).
Of course, the only one to open and spill during shipping was the predictably terrible truffle.
This type of product is a lot more fun to review with a friend, so I invited my friend Jamie to come along with me on a sensory journey of flavor confusion.
First, we gathered our foods:
We went with a variety of cooked and raw vegetables, mild and pungent cheeses, and a couple of fruits. The only thing missing was meat, but meat is expensive and also I didn't want to spend the time it takes to cook it.
Let's take a look at some of the highs and lows that comprised this adventure.
Butter-sauteed Broccoli with Strawberry Oil
Since this was apparently was hailed as the "way to get those pesky kids to eat their veggies," I started with this bizarre combination. The result was confusing. My broccoli didn't magically taste like strawberry candy, but it did taste less like broccoli. The overwhelming scent of synthetic strawberry completely distracted me from what was in my mouth. I didn't taste the broccoli anymore; I didn't taste anything. It was like chewing on flavorless plant matter while someone next to you eats a Ring Pop.
Cornichons with Mint Oil
This was by far the most upsetting combination. Not only did I smell the mint, I tasted it. The result was troubling and confusing, but it was also fascinating from a sensory stand point.
Jamie summed it up best with a simple "That's so wrong."
Fresh Mozzarella and a Cherry Tomato with Basil Oil
This was reminiscent of a caprese salad, but like one of those caprese salads where the basil is a little weak. You know, just kind of anemic tasting -- definitely not organic.
It was one those combinations that made us say "Hey, this tastes kind of like a food I had before, but slightly worse." It wasn't unpleasant, this vial of green oil won't be replacing my basil plant anytime soon.
(Actually, I killed that thing long ago, so maybe this is the best option for me.)
Hard-boiled Egg with Banana Oil
Now this was an interesting battle of aromas. I was only able to detect the aroma of (synthetic) banana for a brief moment when I raised the fork to my lips, but after that, the sulfurous egg gained dominance and it was all I could taste.
Not that it was that surprising -- sulfur is pretty strong, the banana oil never stood a chance.
Fresh Pineapple with Smoke
You know what one of my favorite things ever is? Grilled pineapple. That bit of char with all of those caramelized flavors is simply divine, especially when enjoyed with prosciutto. I was hoping to create something similar with this pairing, and I wasn't completely disappointed.
The smoke oil was by far the stickiest and most persistent of all the oils; the aroma hung around for hours. While it did give the pineapple a smoky flavor, my brain wasn't that easily tricked. Because pineapple undergoes all sorts of browning and caramelization reactions when cooked, producing hundreds of new flavor compounds, it was immediately apparent that the fruit had never been exposed to heat.
This isn't the fault of the oil, it did provide the smoky flavor, but because the aroma wasn't accompanied by the flavors that indicate browning, my brain immediately detected it as "artificial."
Good job, brain.
Mozzarella with Coffee Oil
The creaminess of the cheese actually paired alright with the coffee. Jamie said she couldn't taste the cheese at all, but we'll discuss why that might be later.
Kalamata Olive with Vanilla Oil
The "vanilla" in this kit smelled like lip gloss, but really strongly-scented lip gloss. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely wasn't true vanilla.
That said, the sweetness of the oil tempered the olive's aggressively briny flavor, and there was less sensory confusion than expected. It didn't taste like a vanilla olive though, just a less intense version of a regular olive. The aroma didn't seem related to the olive at all; it was just there.
We tried a few more combinations (broccoli with wasabi, peanut with mushroom) but everything started getting kind of muddy, and I was developing a headache.
But there was still one final experiment to be made.
Supertaster Test
We've discussed supertasters on this site before (I miss you, Conway), but just to refresh, Molecule-R describes a supertaster as:
...an individual that will taste with far greater intensity that the average population. For instance, they will be extremely sensitive to the bitterness found in coffee, beer, and in some green vegetables such as broccoli.
Little strips treated with a molecule called PROP can be used to determine if you are a supertaster. If you are, the strip will taste extremely bitter and unpleasant. If you are a "non-taster" it will be tasteless. Normal tasters are somewhere in between.
I found the strips to be a little bitter, but not unbearable; Jamie said they "tasted like paper."
Suddenly, our different reactions to the mozzarella/coffee oil pairing made a lot of sense. Mozzarella is a very mild, delicately flavored cheese. Given this new information about Jamie's "taster status" it made sense that it would be obliterated by the coffee aroma. (It should also be noted that Jamie has an excellent sense of smell and that she commonly complains about food "smelling a lot better than it tastes.")
Should You Buy It?
Molecule-R's Aromafork is a lot of fun to play around with but, given the quality of the aroma oils, I don't think it's a viable option for elevating fancy cuisine.
But if you want to teach some kids (or adults) about aroma and sensory perception, this is certainly a neat little way to do it. It would be fun to break out at a party, but I wouldn't let the intoxicated handle the oils; it would be a disaster if the truffle spilled on anything.
On a practical note, the oil doesn't restrict itself to the little pads. We found ourselves having to wash (rinsing didn't cut) between every pairing, as the aromas would linger long after we removed the absorbent disks. A few more pipettes would be nice for the same reason; washing those little guys kind of slows you down.
At $60, it's a little pricey, but there are enough supplies for many many uses, allowing you to create as many weird pairings as you can think of.

The recent violence in Gaza resulted in a number of rallies and events held in Edmonton. I was at many of them, and even participated a few times. The first rally for Gaza took place on January 4, and I sang the song "Walls", as I often do at these sorts of gatherings. I attended and photographed two other rallies, and filmed an educational seminar about the situation in Gaza, from a Palestinian perspective.
As well, in late January, Dr. Norman Finkelstein came to speak at the University of Alberta campus. He is a Jewish American academic who is highly critical of the Israeli government and policies towards the Palestinian people. He is also highly disliked amongst other Jewish people in particular, who view him as an anti-Semite or a self-hating Jew (which is ridiculous, because the man identifies publicly as being Jewish. He isn't anti-Semitic. Rather, his detractors are anti-semantic). There was a small backlash from the Jewish community, some of whom felt that he should not have been permitted to speak at the U of A. To some, being critical of Israel is akin to being anti-Jewish.
Being Jewish myself, I know how complicated the issue of Israel/Palestine can be. And I know that speaking out for the Palestinian people comes with a cost. I have been severely reprimanded by members of my family. I have concerns about some of my work arrangements, should those in the Jewish community find out and decide to take action. I've been called a traitor, a Jewish turncoat, told I should be ashamed of myself, and a few other choice things.
And yet I still speak out, participate, and sing. All because I think it is wrong for Israel to bomb the snot out of Gaza and in the process kill mostly innocent women and children. Because badly aimed rockets are being fired into Israel. Because the people are oppressed and are fighting back. The explanation I get, is that Hamas is using human shields, thus accounting for all of the deaths. Hamas is purposely firing rockets knowing Israel will fire back to those locations, where people are concentrated.
If this is true, and Israel knows the tactics that Hamas is up to - why play into it? Israel should have learned from the fiasco in Lebanon in 2006 that lots of dead women and children does not a victory make. A measured response does not involve trying to kill a mosquito with a sledgehammer, so to speak. Violence just begets more violence, and to say that Israel is correct in its actions is to basically justify murder. The human rights abuses committed by the IDF at checkpoints and the general entrapment of the people of in what is essentially a walled-off ghetto (sound familiar?) only breeds a culture of hate.
If saying these sorts of things makes me a bad Jew, then so be it. Part of my understanding of being Jewish is standing up for the rights of others and trying to make the world a better place (Tikkun Olam, as it is called in Hebrew). Too many Jews grow up being reared to have an unquestioning loyalty and patriotism towards Israel. How? Good old Jewish guilt. We are brainwashed into blind nationalism because of the Holocaust - Israel is our protection (and apparently gives us the right to treat other ethnic groups poorly). Israel is our homeland (even to those white-skinned Westerners who have never set foot in the Holy Land). "Hey - it says so in the Torah," cries the Jewish man who has not set foot in a Shul since his Bar Mitzvah and doesn't know Kiddush from Kaddish.
My Judaism is defined by who I am and the way I live my life, not by allegiance to a state. Zionism, to me, is a political ideology that sets Jewish interests above others. I believe in a two-state solution, with a strong and viable Israel and Palestine side by side. Critics of Hamas say that peace will not happen until extremism is eliminated. However, Israel is not immune to extremism either - I argue that bombing resulting in so many civilian casualties is quite extreme.
Criticism of Israel is not anti-Jewish. However, oppressing and trying to silence those dissenting voices, is. After all, arguing, debating, searching for meaning - these are all very Jewish things to do. However, this week, a concern was raised to me that my views on Israel may potentially polarize a faith community with which I am involved - one which is composed of people from different cultural and religious backgrounds. I strongly disagree. As reasonable, rational adults, we should be able to openly discuss our viewpoints and disagreements, without becoming hostile.
Shabbat shalom, salaam, and peace.
Thoughts and musings from a writer, editor, photographer, activist, and musician in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I believe that faith and social action are intertwined in efforts to positively motivate change in the society around us. We need to be actively involved in our communities to try to effect this change locally and globally. I also love the local Arts scene. Warning: alternative perspectives and strong opinions ahead. Intimidated yet? Good - read on.

Israel/Palestine - What's a Jew to Do?

It's very rare for a divorce in the Houston area to not involve property division in some way. In rare instances, couples who haven't been married long may have very few marital assets to divide. However, most couples are married for years, often decades, and thus have acquired plenty of shared property that must be considered if they formally end the marriage.
As many divorced Texans know, it's not always easy or simple to divide these assets. The level of complication can grow proportionately to the levels of income and assets. In a high asset divorce, in addition to figuring out how to divide assets, it's also important to know what, exactly, the assets are. Some spouses, particularly those who have a lot at stake in a divorce, may not be completely forthcoming and may even hide or misrepresent assets.
Not all hidden asset situations involve money in offshore accounts, as movies and TV often depict. Instead, financial professionals and attorneys know that hidden assets can take various forms, such as loans to family members with no interest. Another way assets may be concealed is if a spouse gets a family member to make a significant purchase with the money of the divorcing spouse. When spouses run a business together, or even if one spouse owns a business, the potential for hidden assets gets even larger.
The problem of hidden assets is one that can cause a lot of headaches for both spouses. The spouse hiding assets could face legal repercussions, and the spouse who suspects the other is hiding assets has to do some work to prove it. Moreover, family members who may have been "used" by a spouse to hide assets might not even realize they've been pulled-in to a divorce case. Since it often requires professional assistance, such as that offered by an attorney, to uncover hidden assets, it's helpful for spouses to work with their legal counsel on the issue rather than going it alone. An experienced lawyer can also offer advice on how to understand family members' possible roles in a spouse's asset concealment.

When successful New York editor Jen Gibbs discovers a decaying slush-pile manuscript on her desk, she has no idea that the story of Sarra, a young mixed-race woman trapped in Appalachia at the turn of the twentieth century, will both take her on a journey and change her forever. Happy with her life in the city, and at the top of her career with a new job at Vida House Publishing, Jen has left her Appalachian past and twisted family ties far behind. But the search for the rest of the manuscript, and Jen's suspicions about the identity of its unnamed author, will draw her into a mystery that leads back to the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains . . . and quite possibly through the doors she thought she had closed forever.

The beginning of a new presidential administration is a good time to explore the tremendous amount of environmental information to be had from the U.S. government, both new and old.
At this time, many in the environmental field may be considering ways to become a part of the new administration. Every four years, the U.S. Congress publishes a list of approximately 8,000 jobs that are or may be political appointments. This publication, United States Government Policy and Supporting Positions, is known as the "Plum Book" not only for its purple cover but the plum jobs inside it. The 2008 edition contains 174 positions at the Environmental Protection Agency and the Council on Environmental Quality alone. Many other familiar agencies have environmental appointments, such as the Department of Agriculture's Under Secretary for Natural Resources and Environment (the Forest Service and the Natural Resources Conservation Service report to this position); the Department of Defense's Assistant Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health; and the Department of State's Assistant Secretary for Oceans, International Environment, and Science Affairs. There are also several lesser-known environmental agencies and commissions, including the Nuclear Waste Technical Review Board; the Morris K. Udall Scholarship and Excellence in National Environmental Policy Foundation; and the Marine Mammal Commission. Information about the nuts and bolts of political appointments can be found in the Office of Personnel Management's Presidential Transition Guide to Federal Human Resources Management.
For those of us not seeking a political appointment but rather the answer to a research question, government agencies and libraries hold huge stores of environmental information. The General Services Administration (GSA) runs USA.gov, the official U.S. government Web portal, but its environment, energy, and agriculture page gives a poor scope of environmental and sustainability work in the government and is geared more toward consumers than researchers. However, several agencies provide more in-depth, cross-topic information. The Government Printing Office Web site, GPO Access, provides an environment-specific list of resources, an excellent source for legislation and regulations. The Thomas Web site at the Library of Congress is another good place to look for information on legislation. It does not have subject categories, but most of its subpages have keyword search functions; researchers can look up Senate or House bill texts on one page and find proceedings and debates in the Congressional Record on another. Thomas also contains links to lists of Senate and House committee home pages, such as the House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming and the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works.
The National Archives and Records Administration has a goldmine of featured images and documents on historical environmental topics (including energy, transportation, disasters, parks, and forests) with instructions on how to retrieve electronically available portions. The Archives has guides to inactive records of government agencies (not necessarily available online) as well. Researchers can explore the records with a keyword search, but they are organized under and can be searched by group number, which can be found via an alphabetical topic index or topic clusters (links to these are to the right under the subhead "Guide to Federal Records"). For example, a guide to 1944–1996 papers of the Environmental Protection Agency and its predecessors are found as record group number 412.
The Government Accountability Office (GAO), an independent investigative reporting agency of the legislative branch, issues papers on various topics at the request of congressional committees. Researchers can browse these "Reports and Testimonies" by topic and agency. For instance, the GAO issued a report in late September last year on the importance of the U.S. government's role in developing carbon capture and storage to mitigate atmospheric power plant carbon dioxide emissions. Another report outlined progress cleaning up and disposing debris from Hurricane Katrina.
The Congressional Research Service (CRS) of the Library of Congress also prepares reports on various topics for Congress. Unfortunately, the CRS does not make its reports directly available to the public, so there is no comprehensive way to find them. Several libraries and open government initiatives (such as OpenCRS.com) are making an effort to address this problem. A separate organization, the National Council for Science and the Environment, maintains a collection of more than 2,000 environment-themed CRS reports, including a 2007 report by staffer Rhoda Margesson that clearly presents the federal funding mechanisms for international disaster and post-conflict aid along with present policy challenges.
Researchers can also use the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) process to find government information that agencies do not actively publish. Individuals may write to request information from executive agencies, and the information must be provided within a certain time if not exempted by the act. Sometimes a charge for copying is required. Each agency has a person designated to oversee FOIA requests; the Department of Justice maintains a government-wide FOIA contact list. Individuals and organizations often share the results of FOIA requests online. For example, the National Security Archive is a library of previously unavailable documents obtained through FOIA and the declassification process for secret documents. Many of these documents have environmental implications, including The Making of the Limited Test Ban Treaty, 1958–1963 collection, which features evidence of public health risks from radiation exposure. Topical collections are available for browsing and include nuclear history and humanitarian crises such as the Rwandan genocide.
It is not always necessary to use FOIA to get information from an agency, however. The Federal Depository Library Program is a system of libraries required to provide free access to government-provided publications and electronic information to any person. Library staff at depository libraries are usually experts in finding government information; researchers can often count on them to ferret out information well beyond the publications the program provides. In addition, major government agencies also have libraries of their own. The Federal Library and Information Center Committee maintains one list of libraries of permanent member agencies and another of nonmember federal libraries. Many if not most of these agency libraries serve the public as part of their mission. In 2006 and 2007, the Environmental Protection Agency's library system suffered from extensive cuts and closures, but the agency has since restored many of the lost libraries and services.
Agency public affairs offices can also be useful to researchers, though as the primary contacts for journalists, public affairs officers may add political spin to the information they provide. The GSA maintains a list of agency press release Web sites. These press releases always include contact information for an agency press officer for a given issue.
In addition to traditional published reports, some agencies also compile indexes of citations or full text of their own and others' reports, scholarly journal articles, and data. These publication indexes are in some cases the preeminent scholarly databases in their fields. The GPO links to databases in agriculture, criminal justice, education, energy, health, and space exploration.
The judicial branch has so many sources it may require a separate column to properly deal with it, but the GPO Access guide to judicial branch resources serves as a good starting point for exploring environmental court cases. Links on this site include the U.S. Supreme Court's docket system, which contains complete histories of individual Court cases, and a map with links to all U.S. federal trial and appellate courts.
Finally, although Google has only been around for 10 years, it feels like an old friend in the research process, and government information is no exception. Google Advanced Search, reached by clicking on "Advanced Search" to the right of the Google search bar, allows researchers to restrict searches to specific domains, like Navy.mil or usbr.gov (the Bureau of Reclamation). The same search can be done on the main Google screen by adding "site:" to a search. For example, a Google search for < lemur site:si.edu > yields information on lemurs from the Smithsonian Institution.
GEORGE E. CLARK is the environmental resources librarian at the Harvard College Library. Material for Bytes of Note may be directed to him at email@example.com.

#finance capital
What is 'Capital'
Capital refers to financial assets or the financial value of assets, such as cash and funds held in deposit accounts, as well as the tangible machinery and production equipment used in environments such as factories and other manufacturing facilities. Additionally, capital includes facilities, such as the buildings used for the production and storage of the manufactured goods. Materials used and consumed as part of the manufacturing process do not qualify.
Loading the player.
BREAKING DOWN 'Capital'
While money is used simply to purchase goods and services for consumption, capital is more durable and is used to generate wealth through investment. Examples of capital include automobiles, patents. software and brand names. All of these items are inputs that can be used to create wealth. Besides being used in production, capital can be rented out for a monthly or annual fee to create wealth, or it can be sold when it is no longer required.
Ongoing Service to Business
In order to qualify as capital, the goods must provide an ongoing service to the business to create wealth. Capital must be combined with labor, the work of individuals who exchange their time and skills for money, to create value. By investing in capital and foregoing current consumption, a business or individual can direct those efforts into future prosperity.
The assertion of property rights designates the value of associated capital. Individuals or companies can claim ownership to their capital and direct its function to suit their needs. Ownership of capital can also be transferred to another individual or corporation with any resulting proceeds from the sale being directed to the previous owner. For example, a business can sell a piece of production equipment to another facility in exchange for cash. The purchasing facility becomes the new owner of the equipment and the selling business can include the funds as revenue.
Debt Capital
A business can acquire capital through the assumption of debt. Debt capital can be obtained through private sources, such as friends and family, financial institutions and insurance companies, or through public sources, such as federal loan programs.
Equity Capital
Equity capital is based on investments that, unlike debt capital, do not need to be repaid. This can include private investment by the business owners, as well as contributions derived from the sale of stock.
Tangible assets that function as capital within a business are subject to depreciation, which occurs as normal wear and tear on an item diminishes its overall value. Depreciation is often noted on a business's financial statements and may be eligible for use as tax deductions.

A occupation is much much more bearable if you get paid out nicely to do it, right? Becoming your own manager, allows you to cost the consumer the going rate for the services you provide. The better quality services you can provide, the higher the rate you can cost the customer.
Now this can be a good factor because if an area is handed by much more than once, that indicates the cleansing is much more comprehensive – in that area. What some people might not like with this navigation technique, although, is that it definitely outcomes in a longer house or office cleaning time compared to that of a robotic cleaner that passes via an region only as soon as. Some office cleaning in London is currently carried out by robots produced by Subaru, although at this phase they only sweep and vacuum.
Payments can be straight made to your bank account if they do on-line banking. This is the least hassel free ways to deal with payments. I use: Interact mail cash transfer. You just give them your e-mail linked to your financial institution with a password that is of their choice. Or you can just ask for money on the day of the service to be still left on a table for you. Most people will give you a important, but some like to leave it on their property. Some people are house the working day of service and some are not.
It's apparent that ahead thinking has a lot to do with a regular routine in this feeling. If you can identify what your needs are most likely to be in the long term, that nice vibrant and clean workplace atmosphere you are used to will always be in effect. That's because you can make sure you always have the individuals you require to maintain it searching that way.
The offices are component of the impact which you make on your own clients and potential clients. If you do not have dependable London office cleaning company that can keep issues looking shipshape then you're heading to give your clients a poor impact. No one really wants to work with a individual that works in a squalid atmosphere. Mayhem is alright, so long as it is thoroughly clean chaos. In actuality, chaos can sometimes function to your advantage if you're really busy.
Local guides are frequently forgotten treasures. Tourists value them, but we tend to think that simply because we live right here we don't require to be told about our history. Nicely, our kids now appear up in guide publications to find out if stately houses have guided tours, if we go away we call in at the local vacationer board to find out if there a guided walks – which are often totally free- and have no hesitation in inquiring the actors at medieval pageants what they would have done in their life. Fascinating snippets come out.
First of all, are you prepared to give up your regular job? Numerous individuals truly wouldn't like the believed of becoming at home most of the time. But if you are 1 the many who would love to have a home primarily based business, here are a few self work ideas for you!
The office cleaners will organize every thing for you and do the cleaning as often as you want. The very best thing about having expert cleaners is that they are quite effective. They can take treatment of the cleansing with out placing a maintain to your normal actions. This means that you do not have to be concerned about surrendering your workplace throughout function hrs to the cleansing group. Once your office is clean, you will start observing the good changes that accompany it.
