Bret Stephens is a right-wing journalist and climate-science denier who spent most of his career writing for the Wall Street Journal. He was hired as an opinion writer by the New York Times in early 2017, and wrote his first column on April 28.
I first learned about Mr. Stephens's new job at the New York Times from a blog posting by Joe Romm, a physicist who writes extensively about climate science and energy economics. Romm pointed out an inconsistency between the current advertising campaign of the Times – "Truth. It's more important now than ever" – and Stephens's history of writing about climate change and other issues. The Times received more than 1500 comments and 550 letters to the editor about Stephens's first column within 48 hours of its appearance on April 29. Romm, Susan Matthews, David Roberts, and others wrote thorough rebuttals of Stephens's argument, such as it was. I won't reiterate these rebuttals, but wish to make a few additional points about denial of climate science in Stephens's New York times column.
Mr. Stephens claims to accept the fact that the average temperature on Earth has increased in the last 150 years due in part to human activity. This gives his column a patina of plausibility compared to the claims of others who deny climate science. But this apparent plausibility is really only a pretense. He ignores all of the other evidence of recent, rapid climate change – melting glaciers, shrinking ice caps on Greenland, decreased ice in the Arctic Ocean, melting permafrost, rising sea levels, more extreme weather events. He fails to acknowledge that our addition of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere is the primary cause of recent climate change.
Stephens's biggest problem is with the mathematical models that are used to project future climate conditions under various scenarios. He incorrectly implies that climatologists claim certainty about these projections, and constructs an analogy between this purported certainty of climatologists and the supposed certainty of the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign that she would win the election last November. According to Stephens, the Clinton campaign was wrong, so the climatologists might also be wrong. This analogy is phony at several levels. The politicians weren't as certain as Stephens implies. The climatologists include uncertainty in all of their model projections. And the climate models are based on detailed knowledge of atmospheric chemistry and physics, unlike the statistical models of polling data that politicians and the news media use, which depend on extrapolating from surveys of a small number of voters to the voting population as a whole. In addition, there are various ways of testing global climate models by comparing observed data to predictions of the models. The figure below shows one example illustrating that these models can account for measured average temperature of Earth's surface between 1860 and 2000 only if models include both emission of greenhouse gases by burning fossil fuels and natural factors such as variation in solar radiation and volcanic activity.
For Stephens, the uncertainty surrounding predictions of climate models appears to justify a wait-and-see approach to dealing with climate change. This ignores three fundamental principles of climate change that I discuss in my book "Tools for Critical Thinking in Biology": inertia, positive feedback, and tipping points. About 20% of the carbon dioxide that we add to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels today will remain in the atmosphere for 1000 years (inertia). Increased temperatures in the arctic cause less ice in the Arctic Ocean, making the surface darker, meaning more heat is absorbed, warming the arctic region further, melting more ice, and so forth (positive feedback). Finally, some effects of anthropogenic climate change may cause transitions to dramatically different conditions (tipping points) that will be irreversible for hundreds of human generations. For example, sea level was 23 feet higher during the Eemian interglacial period that ended, 125,000 years ago, but temperature was only a fraction of 1oF higher than today. As global temperatures continue to increase in response to continued addition of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, with arctic temperatures rising much faster than those at lower latitudes, we may reach a tipping point in which the Greenland ice cap melts, causing sea levels similar to those in the Eemian that will remain elevated for many generations. Inertia, positive feedback, and tipping points in the global climate mean that Stephens's wait-and-see approach is indefensible.
Stephens seems to be fixated on trying to undermine the overwhelming consensus among climate scientists in the basic facts of climate change and the resulting projections of what we face if we continue business as usual in our use of fossil fuels. Contrary to his claim, this consensus doesn't mean that the science is settled. Far from it: I'm not a climatologist, but climatology is one of the most active and exciting areas of research today, with new findings reported almost weekly (most of which should make us even more worried about the future).
The heroes of Stephens's story are ordinary citizens, who may be "indifferent to … the prospect of planetary calamity", but "have a right to be skeptical of an overweening scientism." Stephens implies that climate scientists are often villains, but I see climate scientists who forge ahead with their research in the face of abuse from politicians beholden to fossil fuel interests as heroic. Ordinary citizens can also be heroic if they nurture their curiosity about science, develop real skepticism instead of the faux skepticism of science deniers, and above all demand honesty in themselves and others.

The members of the LLC can make the decision to dissolve the LLC and cease all operations of the business if there is unanimous consent to do so. A vote to dissolve the business can be for any reason, regardless of profitability. The LLC automatically ceases to exist if during any consecutive 90-day period the LLC has no members. Most state statutes allow for dissolution if a member dies, enters personal bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise becomes incompetent. However, remaining members have the authority to continue the LLC and its operations if all members agree unanimously.
Operating Agreement
The operating agreement of the LLC is binding on all members. If the agreement provides that dissolution will occur by the happening of a particular event, the occurrence of that event is grounds for dissolution and requires a winding up of LLC affairs. However, an LLC operating agreement is subject to amendments if a sufficient number of members vote in favor of amending it. Therefore, dissolution is not mandatory on the occurrence of the event if immediately after members amend the clause requiring dissolution. The operating agreement will also provide the number of member votes that are necessary to amend the agreement. This clause of the agreement remains binding on the members even if facing an imminent dissolution. For example, if a unanimous vote is required for amending the agreement, a single member can enforce the dissolution by voting against the amendment.
Unlawful Business Activity
Any member of the LLC may appeal to a court to order the dissolution of the LLC on the basis that all or a substantial amount of the activities the business engages in are illegal. In addition to the submission of evidence proving the illegal activity, the member must provide reasonable explanations why it is necessary to dissolve the LLC rather than continuing to carry out only lawful activities pursuant to the LLC's operating agreement.
Illegal Management
A member of the LLC can also request a state court intervene and order a dissolution if the managers or members in charge of managing the operations are using the LLC to engage in unlawful activity or to promote fraudulent business dealings. Court intervention is available even if the management has yet to commit an illegal or fraudulent act, but there is sufficient evidence that fraudulent or illegal activities are imminent. In the absence of fraud and illegality, a member may also request dissolution from a state court judge if the members and managers who have authority to manage the LLC's operations are acting in a manner that is oppressive and potentially harmful to the member's interests.

Toy Story Review
I will always remember when I saw Toy Story at the theater when it first came out. This isn't a movie that needed to grow on me with time, although I am certain my appreciation for it is far deeper today then it was back then. I loved it the first time sitting in that sticky, squeaky chair, looking up at the massive screen before me, but now it's a wonderful combination of that nostalgia with a realization that this is still a completely ingenious, pretty much perfect piece of animated cinema.
It's fascinating discussing the movie with my kid because it really illustrates how much perspective plays a role in the level of appreciation. Not that she doesn't love Toy Story, she does, but for her it's just one of a number of great Pixar movies. The fact that it was the feature length debut for the animation studio is meaningless to her, and telling her that the film was a groundbreaking moment for the medium as it was the first picture to be created entirely via the computer rather than be drawn by hand elicits an "Oh wow" and a nod of the head, but truthfully those are just words. Such animation is the norm for her where as a Studio Ghibli film is what looks and feels strange. Like it or not, Toy Story was when that transition began and the landscape has been altered ever since.
I say like it or not because when I watch some of the Disney classics or the aforementioned Studio Ghibli masterpieces, I can't help but miss the lush detail and charm of a hand drawn beauty, but that's only because of the saturation of computer animation for over 20 years now. When I first saw Toy Story, you wouldn't have been able to convince me I would ever feel inclined to go backwards again. The way the characters popped off the screen and how they and the world they occupy feel shockingly organic. The richness of the color in every frame. It's all so masterfully crafted, and add in the brisk 80 or so minute running time that is so marvelously paced I couldn't possibly trim or add a minute and what we have here is one of the finest animated films ever made.
I didn't even mention the spot on vocal casting and the way actors such as Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Don Rickles, John Ratzenberger and more bring the toys to life and provide them with such vibrant personalities. I don't have an ill word to say about Toy Story, and every time I see it I am transported to that chair in a theater that doesn't even exist anymore yet it still feels like I can reach out and touch the magical glow of the screen.

I concur. What is really amazing is they actually improved on the original and made an even better sequel (IMHO)ReplyDeleteReplies
ranking these has always been so hard for me. Honestly, despite thinking the sequel is also magical and a 5/5, I think I might rank it last...? See I just don't know. My heart always draws me to the first one because it was released when I was a kid and I saw it in the theater, and then the third one might be the best film of the bunch....the second one got lost in my teenage years and didn't quite mean as much when it was released, but now watching it I recognize that it's excellent.Delete

For the first time, I'm using a private Facebook group to foster connections within my small group—and it's been an extremely useful tool. If your group members have Facebook accounts, consider using this free tool that will allow you to connect in new ways throughout the week.
Confidential Sharing
When setting up a Facebook group, be sure to make it a "secret" group. This will ensure that only the members of the group will be able to see posts. This means they will not show up on newsfeeds or on individual members' profiles. A secret group will allow your group members to share with confidence.
Smart Phone Ready
If you're looking for a way to instantly contact all your members at once, look no further—especially if your group members have smart phones. Group members' phones will alert them that there's a new message for them on Facebook.
Easily Add and Remove Members
When someone new joins, it's easy to add him or her to the group. I was once part of an e-mail chain that constantly added and removed people. They were always sending out e-mails with the updated information so that all the members could update their e-mail address books. With Facebook groups, there's no need to do this. Simply add a new member and all messages are sent to him or her. In the same way, if people leave the group, you can easily remove them.
Connect Throughout the Week
Set posting permissions to allow all group members to post on the group's page. This allows all group members to like comments, post comments, and share photos and documents. Let everyone contribute to the online discussion just like in your actual meetings. Group members can share prayer requests or other needs throughout the week. On a practical note, you may want to set up some guidelines for what to share—for instance, you may want to make it clear that posts about personal businesses are not welcome.
Comment Strings
No long reply all threads to read through on Facebook. Simply scroll through the comments posted. It's a lot cleaner and easier to look through than a reply-all e-mail. Even better—you won't "lose" comments by accidentally deleting your e-mail. Simply scroll down the page until you find the information you're looking for.
See Who Has Read Posts
Have you ever sent out an e-mail and wondered if anyone actually read it? With Facebook groups, you'll never wonder again. The page will show you exactly who has seen your post. I once had to cancel our meeting last minute. I posted the information to our page and could check to see who had seen the post. Everyone quickly saw the message, and I could rest assured that no one would show up accidentally.
Keep the Conversation Going
I love being able to write a quick post about the chapter we'll be discussing at our next meeting. Something like, "I loved her description of grace on page 45" can spark discussion before you even get together. One week I came across a YouTube video that was on the topic of our study and posted it. It came out in our discussion that week.
Post Links to Resources
I've found myself frequently saying "Let me get back to you on that" in meetings. One of the great things about Facebook groups is they allow you to get back to them sooner. For instance, one woman asked me how to access the podcasts our church offers. The next day I posted a link to the podcasts on our group page. Or perhaps your church is putting on a special event and has a webpage with more information. You can link to the page so everyone in your group can check it out.

Regulatory Status Legend
The 3D10 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to mouse Lymphocyte antigen 49H (Ly-49H; also known as Klra8 or Killer cell lectin-like receptor 8). The 3D10 antibody does not crossreact with related molecules such as Ly-49A, C, D or G2. Ly-49H is a type II transmembrane protein and a member of the Ly-49 C-type lectin multigene family of receptors expressed by NK cells. Cell surface Ly-49H is expressed by a subset of NK cells but not by NKT cells. Ly-49H is expressed by C57BL/6 and NWNA but not by BALB/c or DBA/2 mouse NK cells. Cell surface Ly-49H presents as a ~110 kDa disfulfide-linked homodimer and associates with signaling subunits such as DAP10 and DAP12 for optimal transduction of intracellular activation signals. Crosslinking of Ly-49H with the 3D10 antibody reportedly induces NK cell cytotoxicity and cytokine production. Ly-49H recognizes the mouse cytomegalovirus m157 glycoprotein that is expressed by infected cells and is required for protection against cytomegalovirus infection.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV563 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BUV395 which has an Ex Max of 348 nm and an acceptor dye. The tandem has an Em Max at 563 nm. BD Horizon BUV563 can be excited by the 355 nm ultraviolet laser. On instruments with a 561 nm Yellow-Green laser, the recommended bandpass filter is 585/15 nm with a 535 nm long pass to minimize laser light leakage. When BD Horizon BUV563 is used with an instrument that does not have a 561 nm laser, a 560/40 nm filter with a 535 nm long pass may be more optimal. Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there may be spillover into the PE and PE-CF594 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
BUV563 is a tandem fluorochrome that combines BD Horizon BUV395 and an acceptor dye with an EM Max at 563 nm. Due to the excitation of the acceptor dye by other laser lines, there may be spillover into channels detecting PE (eg, 575/26-nm filter) and PE-CF594 (eg, 610/20-nm filter). BUV563 has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences for instruments equipped with a 355-nm UV laser.

Initial claims of rock stars death are pulled back after LAPD excuses unintentionally offered details that recommended he had actually died
United States vocalist Tom Petty is seriously ill in medical facility after a thought cardiovascular disease, inning accordance with reports.
The singer-songwriter was apparently hurried to the UCLA Santa Monica healthcare facility on Monday after being discovered unconscious in his Malibu house. Preliminary reports, based upon LAPD sources who spoke with CBS News e Variety , stated Petty had actually passed away.
però, LAPD later on tweeted that the department has "no info about the death of vocalist Tom Petty" and any details had actually been "accidentally supplied". The force asked forgiveness "for any trouble in this reporting".
The artist got popularity as part of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in the late 1970s, a band that was viewed as important to the heartland rock motion. Their most significant hits included I Won't Back Down and American Girl.
Petty was initially part of nation rock band Mudcrutch who got local appeal however didn't draw in a mainstream audience. They later on reformed in 2007 however initially divided after Petty and other members signed up with the Heartbreakers. In 1977 the band got success with the tune Breakdown however it was their 2nd album You're Gon na Get It! that ended up being a leading 40 hit.
Throughout the 80s, the band took pleasure in significant hits including You Got Lucky and Change of Heart and teamed up with Bob Dylan along with Stevie Nicks. Minor continued to deal with Dylan as part of the band Traveling Wilburys along with Roy Orbison, George Harrison and Jeff Lynne.
"It's stunning, squashing news," Bob Dylan informed Rolling Stone in an earlier declaration. "I believed the world of Tom. He was fantastic entertainer, loaded with the light, a good friend, and I'll always remember him."

I'm a super geek (whatever that means) and sneered at postal direct mail as being old fashioned and out of date. "We all throw out junk mail", I would scoff. However, I'm wrong.
Email marketing gets rates of 20% – 50% open rates and we're happy (many campaigns get less).
That means we send 10,000 emails and maybe 2,000 open the email – being very optimistic.
Then maybe 10% of those take action to click on a link so that's only about 200 and even less probably actually buy. But we keep doing online marketing of a variety of ways – email marketing, cost per click advertising and etc.
Guess what – direct mail is very similar? I'm not going to give you all the stats, but direct mail does work. Sure it's hard to track the results, sure it's not as fancy as a digital campaign, but it does drive sales.
This weekend we (my family) went to buy a table. Our CFO (my wife) had a flyer in hand from a local furniture company. This is what got us in our car to get a $500 dining table with 6 chars. I'm sure there are similar sales information coming through Twitter, email and more. But guess what? For sharing sales like this, to reach my wife, an old fashioned direct mail campaign was best.
So what's my point?
Business owners and markets don't down one method of doing marketing (or anything else), if it works. One type of marketing might be great for one segment of customers and one particular thing and one method might be great for something else.
You know what's nice about "junk mail" when it comes to your postal box and you take it out, you can scan much more of the offer in a post card or big flyer than a subject line of an email newsletter.

In my previous blog post I drilled down parts of performance marketing. If you like to start your performance marketing activity in real estate industry to generate leads, I definitely recommend to start with search marketing
Benefit of the search marketing for realtors
Why I consider search marketing as the most important part of your performance marketing campaign? Since potential clients are looking for relevant results for their needs right now. For example if I type in "apartments for sale in Miami", I am looking for real estate websites which will show me apartments in Miami what I could buy. If you are a real estate broker in Miami, you should come up for my search to get a click to your website and generate a lead.
How search marketing works at the real estate industry?
The most important part of search marketing is keyword. Keyword describes the user needs. Let's go back to my previous example "apartments for sale in Miami". That means I would like to buy an apartment in Miami. Another example is "luxury condos for rent in New York City". That means I would like to rent a luxury condo in New York City.
If you are running a Google AdWords search campaign you need to add keywords. Forget keywords like "apartment for sale" or "rent condos", because they are too general, they won't provide you with relevant traffic and cost per click will extremely high. That won't meet our performance marketing goals, since we would like to optimize the cost per leads. So what kind of keywords could you add to your Google AdWords campaign?
Real estate keyword research
If we analyze the previous two example, like "apartments for sale in Miami" or "luxury condos for rent in new york city" you will discover similar patterns.
property type: apartment, condo, house, etc.
type of interest: for sale, to buy, for rent
location: Miami, New York City, etc.
This is your real estate keyword formula
{property type} {type of interest} {location}
Based on this formula you could create your own relevant keyword list. OK, now we have keywords, but if a user type in a keyword to Google, he will get text results. These are the ad copies what we need to create.
Create relevant real estate ad copies
We need to know the structure of Google AdWords ad copy.
Headline – max. 25 characters
Description line 1 – max. 35 characters
Description line 2 – max. 35 characters
Display URL – max. 35 characters
Final URL – landing page URL
Let's use the previous example where I search on "apartment for sale in Miami". Here is what a relevant ad copy looks like.
You need to create a strong relationship between your keyword and ad copy. In this example we need to use the key parameters in our ad copy like apartment, for sale, Miami. In general you need to use those parameters what we used in keyword formula.
We haven't talked yet about the final URL. This is landing page where you lead your visitor. In the real estate industry we use listing pages as landing pages, since you would like to show as more real estate as possible.
Relevant final URL for real estate campaigns
What do you think what could be a relevant landing page for "apartments for sale in miami" keyword?
main page
listing page about real estates in Florida
listing page about real estates in Miami
listing page about apartments for sale in Miami
Based on the keyword we exactly know the visitor's interest, so we need to use as relevant landing page as possible. If I type in "apartments for sale in Miami", I am not interested in houses or other cities in Florida. I would like to get a list of apartments what can I buy in Miami.
Successful Google AdWords search campaign structure at real estate industry
What are the key elements of our Google AdWords search campaign?
ad copy
landing page
Remember that your potential customers use specific keywords, so you need to setup as relevant campaign structure as possible. Forget to target general keywords like "apartment for sale" or "house to rent", since they will generate less leads like specific keywords.
I hope this guide helped you to be successful on the performance marketing field at the real estate industry while you generate more leads with less spending. If you have any other question about to setup a Google AdWords search campaign to your real estate listing site, feel free to email me!

You're probably wondering why this review article has a bee for a picture when we're supposed to be talking about Royal Jelly. So, shouldn't the picture be something royalty like a crown? Or something that resembles jelly, at least?
The answer my friends, is that Royal Jelly actually comes from bees and surprisingly, research has shown that it might actually have testosterone boosting properties.
Bees function in fascinating ways. If you ask me, they're like medieval civilizations of kings, queens, knights, and squires. They have a queen which holds the highest position and the queen has workers under her. As a single unit, they work to keep their kingdom striving.
Royal Jelly is made by these worker bees and at some point in a bee's life, he/she would have been fed by Royal Jelly. The first 3 days of a worker or drone bee's life, he is fed with Royal Jelly for growth because this thing is hella nutritious – containing 66% water, 15% sugars, 5% lipids, and 13% proteins, essential amino acids and vitamins.
However, workers and drones aren't the reason why this tasty jelly is considered royalty. When the old queen becomes weak and frail, the rest of the bees decide the need for a new regime. They then select a few larvae to extensively feed Royal Jelly to and these larvae then grow to become the new queen bees. Furthermore, queen bees exclusively feed on Royal Jelly their entire life.
To us humans, a lot of manufacturers have claimed Royal Jelly to have multiple health benefits and sold them as such. In truth though, a lot of these claims have little to no research to back them up leading to the FDA taking action.
In terms of testosterone and men's health, Royal Jelly does have a few research under its belt. However, these few aren't necessarily what I'd call strong evidence but in the very least, they do display Royal Jelly's potential. Let's take a look.
Protect against oxidative stress
A research was done to investigate the efficacy of Royal Jelly in sexual efficacy, glutathione, and malondialdehyde tissue testis levels. Yes, I know the aim of the research wasn't directed at testosterone levels but they did actually still measure it. Also, this is a rat research so it might not necessarily translate to humans.
That said, the researchers gave the rats either hydrogen peroxide alone or Royal Jelly combined with hydrogen peroxide. The purpose of giving hydrogen peroxide to these male rats was to induce oxidative stress.
The results of both groups were then compared to a control group. The results of the comparison are the following:
- Hydrogen Peroxide group:
- significant decrease in sperm count, percentage of live sperm and glutathione level
- significant increase in the malondialdehyde level and percentage of abnormal sperm deformity
- no significant difference was found in the weight of testis, epididymus, prostate, seminal vesicles, testosterone hormone level and body weight
- Royal Jelly plus Hydrogen Peroxide group:
- significant decrease in sperm count, percentage of live sperm and glutathione level
- significant increase in the malondialdehyde level and percentage of abnormal sperm deformity
- no significant difference in the weight of testis, epididymus, prostate, seminal vesicles, testosterone hormone level and body weight
As you can see, oxidative stress induced by Hydrogen Peroxide negatively impacted a lot of things including sperm, glutathione, and malondialdehyde. With treatment of Royal Jelly, these effects seemed to have been negated.
The researchers concluded their experiment by saying "that royal jelly is a beneficial treatment of male adult rats receiving hydrogen peroxide (to induced oxidative stress) specially on sperm count, testosterone hormone level, the percentage of live sperm, and improvement of glutathione and malondialdehyde tissue testis".
Fight fatigue
This next research used two kinds of Royal Jelly. One was stored at -20 degrees C immediately after collection while the other one was stored at 40 degrees C for 7 days. According to what I understand about the research, the purpose of storing Royal Jelly at these different temperatures was to have different levels of freshness.
The research was conducted to determine the anti-fatigue effects of Royal Jelly in mice. The endurance of these mice were tested via swimming and their maximum time to fatigue was measured. The experiment yielded the following results:
- Royal Jelly at -20 degrees C
- Significantly increased swimming endurance
- Significant decrease in serum lactate and ammonia
- Decreased depletion of muscle glycogen
- Royal Jelly at 40 degrees C
- No significant difference in any of the parameters
As the research shows, fresh Royal Jelly has the capacity to not only enhance endurance, but also slow down the depletion of your muscle's glycogen stores which then leads to lower levels of lactic acid. Therefore, you theoretically get to exercise more with less pain.
Increase testosterone
As this research reiterates, Royal Jelly has been widely used as a health supplement but it doesn't actually have strong human evidence to back up its use. Hence, the researchers of this study set out a goal to evaluate the effects of long-term Royal Jelly ingestion in humans.
The men in the study were divided into two groups with one group supplementing with 3000 mg of Royal Jelly and the other just plain placebo. This experiment went on for 6 months and ended up with the following results in favor of Royal Jelly:
- Significantly lower levels of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S)
- Significantly higher levels of testosterone
Honestly, these are just two of the several results that display the positive effects of Royal Jelly. I'll tell you more about the other results in the next colored box but for now, I need you to pay attention to these two results.
As you can see, Royal Jelly lowered the levels of DHEA-S (a testosterone precursor) while also increasing testosterone. What these results suggest, is that Royal Jelly may be able to expedite the conversion of DHEA-S into testosterone which is absolutely amazing.
The other results of the study suggest that Royal Jelly:
- Significantly higher levels of red blood cells
- Significantly higher levels of hematocrit
- Significantly lower levels of fasting plasma glucose
To me, these results show that Royal Jelly has other health benefits aside from boosting testosterone. It may also help with conditions that have low red blood cell and hematocrit such as different kinds of anemia while also showing potential in controlling glucose (sugar) levels.
How Do I Take ROYAL JELLY?
Well, I am a man who strongly believes in science. The human research that successfully observed an increase in testosterone using Royal Jelly used 3000 mg or 3 g so that's what I suggest you take if you do decide to take this so you can maximize the supplement's potential.
However, a lot of Royal Jelly products that come in capsule form have used somewhere around 50-150 mg so don't be alarmed.
I think it's clear that Royal Jelly does have potential as a testosterone booster. However, it also lacks both human and animal evidence for me to say that it's totally reliable supplement.
For what it's worth though, Royal Jelly does show promise not just in testosterone but also to different aspects of male health such as sperm and exercise. By defending against oxidative stress, Royal Jelly not only improves sperm quality but it may also lead to better muscle recovery .
Combined with the anti-fatigue and testosterone maintaining/boosting that it seems to have, Royal Jelly could theoretically be a really good bodybuilding and exercise supplement. Again though, all these benefits remain theoretical until further evidence arrives.

What I Read: Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore/
4/5 pineapples
Oh, blogger's block.
I was pumped at the beginning of this year about my blogging. I would do it more and consistently. I would have exciting new posts that would attract the attention of all my readers. I would find a style that worked for me. I would create a space that was a hobby, not a chore.
But the best laid plans...
I tried to post, I really did. But every time I started something, I didn't like it. It never had the tone or content I wanted or that I felt was worth publishing. So I was silent.
Until now.
Last night I finished Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, a novel of books, computers, Google, twenty-somethings with 21st century jobs, and people in black robes. This book was a roller coaster, surprising me in subtle ways and changing throughout the lines in each chapter. By the time I closed the paperback, I wasn't sure what I thought--or, for that matter, what had just happened to me.
Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore explores the relationship between books and technology, a topic most of us dance around nowadays. I don't like to see books give way to code and digitization. A character who works at Google actually says:
"I mean, once we've got everything scanned, and cheap reading devices are ubiquitous...nobody's going to need bookstores, right?"
Um, wrong. I'm grateful when Clay, the narrator, replies with: "We'll be fine...people still like the smell of books." YES WE DO! And the rough paper between our fingers, and the satisfaction of watching the pages stack up to the left side of the books, and our thumbs catching on the fibers of paper to turn the page...
But I digress.
Mr. Penumbra makes me think about books, and I love that. Why do we read them, and what are we looking for? What do they tell us? And how much does technology matter in how we understand and use them? It's thought-provoking, and full of little lines about books and life that make me want to pinch the words right off the page and into something I wrote (yes, I know that's wrong--hush, hush, I'm not actually going to do it).
There are times where the book would drag a little for me, or where I lost the plot/what mattered. Part of this is because I was reading it in bits and pieces every night, but part of this is because the story takes a little while to get moving. I had trouble getting into the book until at least halfway through; but once I got there, it was well worth it.
I also almost banged my head against a wall when I saw "Epilogue" printed at the top of the last chapter. NO NO NO. The book ended just fine before that; I didn't need to know how everyone lived happily ever after, and I felt like Sloan cheated me out of imagining my own futures for the characters.
All the same, a book for readers and technology-lovers alike, I really enjoyed the balance between print and screen Sloan explores in Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore.
What do you think--do books have a future in a technology-based world?
Oh, and P.S.- try reading it in the dark.

OTA 105878/Xenia Jones
Article 1: The Ed D. and Other Certification Charades
1. The article discusses the problem of the disconnect between highly qualified certification and actual teacher skill/capacity/effectiveness in teaching. The article draws from the personal observation of the writer relating how certifications do not present the true picture of teacher quality and that, in the 'charade' of certification, schools and students lose out on talented teachers who are unjustly terminated or chose to leave because of what the writer sees as the absurdity of the disconnect between 'fully certified' and 'highly qualified' teachers.
2. There are a number of fallacies that can be spotted in this article. One of them is the 'appeal to authority'. The writer claims to be an authority on the subject (s) (i.e. good, quality and effective teachers) and makes a claim about the subject in relation to the disconnect between quality teachers & the 'charade' that is certification (c), and because of (s), he thus concludes that (c) is true. The logical fallacy committed here is all about establishment of authority. The article, while registering the views and name of the writer does not prove the writer's true expertise without doubt. Another fallacy displayed is that of 'questionable cause' the writer claims that good teachers are not in schools anymore (a) primarily due to the certification charades (b), suggesting that (a) & (b) go together. This is a fallacy because there are varied other reasons that lead to (b) and not (a) alone. The problem here is adequate justification based on one's personal observation without considering other factors ...
Solution Summary
The solution is a 1,173-word review of 2 articles (see attachment) in relation to the fallacies it contains as well as the arguments, the premises and conclusions presented in the articles. Questions answered for each article reviewed include:

I have really enjoyed taking time this year to review my past year and create a vision for the new one. I want to share with you this creative experience of making a vision board because it was eye-opening for me.
Aside from being so personally meaningful, I have a renewed appreciation for Waldorf-inspired methods of learning. This whole experience reminds me of how artistic activity makes abstract ideas concrete and brings those ideas to life in such beautiful, real and memorable ways! This is what the Lively Arts do for us, for our learning and for our living; for both our children and ourselves.
When I went looking for inspiration for creating a vision board, I found this article by Martha Beck. Her words inspired me, particularly these words:
"the board itself doesn't impact reality; what changes your life is the process of creating the images…"
Isn't this precisely how Waldorf education works on a deep, soul level? The images form in our beings and transform us. This comment refers to creating a vision board, but it could just as easily have been made in reference to Waldorf-inspired learning!
"When you start assembling pictures that appeal to this deep self, you unleash one of the most powerful forces on our planet: human imagination. Virtually everything humans use, do, or make exists because someone thought it up. Sparking your incredibly powerful creative faculty is the reason you make a vision board. The board itself doesn't impact reality; what changes your life is the process of creating the images—combinations of objects and events that will stick in your subconscious mind and steer your choices toward making the vision real."
And now to share my process.
Here is my "Exploding Box" review of 2013 that I made with the help of Jennifer Lee from Artizen Coaching.
And here is my Vision Board for 2014. You can include your children in this activity and invite them to make their own vision board, too.
If you want more specific instructions for making a board of your own, check out this article How to Create an Empowering Vision Board. Or this one The Reason Vision Boards Work and How to Make One.
As Waldorf-inspired homeschoolers, we focus a lot on bringing the arts to our children and incorporating them into lessons. But I find that my teaching is more inspired when I'm also doing art myself.
What art projects are you working on to "spark your incredibly powerful creative faculty?" It's a message worth remembering that "what changes your life is the process of creating the images…"
If you want more ideas and inspiration for infusing your lessons and life with the arts, check out my article The Seven Lively Arts.

The report "Climate Action in 2017 – Insights into the readiness of Australian business to disclose climate-related financial risks and opportunities" is based on research by SBA using the CDP climate disclosures from the ASX200 and analysis and insights by leading environmental and energy management advisory firm, Energetics.
The report calls on business to disclose carbon liabilities; for transparency about emission reduction strategies and, for climate response strategies to be integrated into core businesses. The report provides insights into how Australian business is evaluating and disclosing their material climate risks and opportunities that are most relevant to their business activities and asks how well prepared they are to meet the increasing level of disclosure being demanded by investors and shareholders.

Around half of Australia's major businesses will be using an internal carbon price to help manage their business and reduce risk within two years, as momentum builds within the corporate sector to have net zero carbon emissions by mid-century.
The findings come from research conducted over the past 12 months involving 41 per cent of ASX200 listed entities. The research was conducted by Sustainable Business Australia, the country's peak business body for sustainable development, and found approximately a third of businesses surveyed have already implemented an internal carbon price and this is forecast to grow to 50 percent in the next two years.
Further, there has been significant improvement in recent years in the number of companies setting targets for emissions reductions. Of those providing data, 85 per cent of companies globally and 60 per cent of Australian companies have already set targets to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
The research is published in a new report aimed at increasing knowledge amongst the ranks of Chief Executive Officers and other C-Suite leaders of the need for business to have a coherent and comprehensive approach to full decarbonisation and coping with an increase in average temperatures of between 1.5 and four degrees Celsius in the coming decades. The report calls on business to disclose carbon liabilities; for transparency about emission reduction strategies and, for climate response strategies to be integrated into core businesses.
The research also found:
- 94 per cent have climate change integrated into their business strategy
- 87 per cent have the board as the highest level of direct responsibility for climate change management
- 77 per cent provide incentives for the management of climate change issues, including:
- Sustainability performance related remuneration, such as achievement of greenhouse gas emission reductions
- Employee sustainability awards
- Employee rewards for sales of sustainability products and services
- Mechanisms to encourage employee adoption of low-carbon behaviours
In relation to Greenhouse gas reduction targets in Australia:
- 60 per cent of reporters to the 2016 CDP had either absolute or emissions intensity targets.
- 13 per cent of reporters have a science based target.
- 32 per cent of reporters anticipated setting a science based target sometime within the next two years.
A key concern identified by the research is the need for Australian business to improve their level of reporting on carbon risks and opportunities. Only 41 per cent of ASX200 companies reported using the globally recognised and well-established CDP framework in the last 12 months. The financial, energy and utility sectors had the highest levels of proportionate representation (averaging around two-thirds). Whilst this is relatively high, they are the most carbon sensitive. Information technology, healthcare and consumer discretionary sectors were poorly represented with between only 10 and 20 per cent reporting to CDP.
To date, companies have not provided comprehensive descriptions of the impact of climate risks and opportunities on organisations' strategy and financial planning or their resilience to those impacts. In addition, they do not state whether the information that is provided is considered to be material. This makes it hard for investors to make informed decisions using the current level of climate disclosures.
Australian business is being urged to accelerate efforts to act on climate risk and meet growing demands from investors, community, government and international business, for greater transparency, accountability and commitment from the nation's chief executives.
Sustainable Business Australia (SBA) today released a report for C-Suite executives to assist with business in becoming more transparent with their investors about climate-related financial risks and opportunities, transitioning to a zero-carbon economy.
The report "Climate Action in 2017 – Insights into the readiness of Australian business to disclose climate-related financial risks and opportunities" is based on research by SBA using the CDP climate disclosures from the ASX200 and analysis and insights by leading environmental and energy management advisory firm, Energetics.
The report calls on business to disclose carbon liabilities; for transparency about emission reduction strategies and, for climate response strategies to be integrated into core businesses. The report provides insights into how Australian business is evaluating and disclosing their material climate risks and opportunities that are most relevant to their business activities and asks how well prepared they are to meet the increasing level of disclosure being demanded by investors and shareholders.
The latest report follows several warnings from Government and international regulators on the need for greater climate-risk disclosure. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority in February warned that "some climate risks are distinctly 'financial in nature'" adding "Many of these risks are foreseeable, material and actionable now". In April 2017, the Senate Economics References Committee published its findings and recommendations from an inquiry into carbon risk disclosure in Australia. In June 2017, the Task-force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), established by the Financial Stability Board (FSB), finalised its recommendations to help business identify and disclose the information needed by investors, lenders and insurance underwriters to appropriately assess and price carbon risks and opportunities.
SBA Chief Executive Officer, Andrew Petersen said Australian businesses will have to have a coherent and comprehensive plan for a scenario of full decarbonisation and adapting to higher temperatures.
"Carbon-intensive operations need to be treated like the soon-to-be-stranded assets they must, and will, become," Mr Petersen said.
"Australian corporate strategies need to begin with science-based evaluation; evolve into a transition strategy and result in net zero emissions based on 100 per cent clean energy. The strategy needs to be embedded in every part of the organisation, sponsored, announced and led by the chief executive, and become a defining part of a company's DNA.
"To make informed financial decisions, investors, lenders and the businesses themselves need to understand how climate risks and opportunities are likely to impact the future financial position and the resilience of its strategy against such impacts. Financial regulatory authorities, fund managers and shareholders are asking for better information to help them understand complex climate related investment risks. Investors are taking notice. Dissatisfied investors are increasingly launching shareholder resolutions and legal challenges.
"The public, including your customers, are looking for business to play a leading role in providing for a sustainable world. A sustainable business is a good business – one welcomed by other businesses, government, the community and, most importantly, the planet and future generations," Mr Petersen said.
Energetics Chief Executive Officer, Tony Cooper said the most urgent issue for business is the escalation in energy costs. "As energy budgets have blown out, businesses are seeking to hedge against the persistent volatility in our east coast energy markets," Mr Cooper said.
"Some of the most attractive options come from the boom in renewables, with a number of large energy users investigating corporate renewable power purchase agreements or on-site generation projects. Australia's energy mix is changing and decarbonising. The energy investment landscape has shifted dramatically: outdated, inefficient, carbon-intensive energy generation is giving way to renewable energy and innovative storage solutions," Mr Cooper said
CDP Chief Executive Officer, Paul Simpson said the Paris Agreement and the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals marked the start of a new strategy for the world, with a clear message for businesses: the low-carbon revolution is upon us.
"The choice facing companies and investors has never been clearer: seize the opportunities of a carbon-constrained world and lead the way in shaping our transition to a sustainable economy; or continue business as usual and face serious risks," Mr Simpson said.
CDP is the most widely used voluntary carbon disclosure framework and the largest source of carbon emissions data in the world. In 2016, over 1,000 companies responded to the climate change questionnaire, representing 12 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. In Australia, 80 ASX200 companies made climate submissions to CDP in 2016, of which 68 are public. This report focuses on these disclosures.
Who responded to the 2016 CDP Climate Questionnaire?
The questionnaire was sent by CDP to the ASX200 and 41 per cent responded. The largest proportional representation of disclosing companies from each sector were from the financial, materials, energy and utilities sectors and the lowest proportional representation from each sector was from IT, healthcare and consumer discretionary sectors.
What did they say about risks and opportunities?
The results show that active management of climate risks and opportunities is recognised as valuable. Not only in anticipation of greater government-mandated requirements and increased investor scrutiny, but for the opportunities to innovate, reduce costs and engage more closely with business stakeholders such as suppliers and communities.
Opportunities are mostly focused around product and service innovation as well as cost reduction. Risks are more varied and include increased costs, physical damage as well as changing customer behaviour and supply chain impacts.
Across the group of interviewees there was some concern expressed for the integrity of data and systems. Ahead of improving the disclosure of climate risks and opportunities, the management fundamentals need to be right. Companies need confidence in the accuracy of their energy and carbon data, management and reporting systems must be robust, and engagement with staff across all levels of the company is critical.
What's driving the change?
Interviewees cited the drivers for managing climate risks as including regulation, international agreements, risks already being realised through the impacts of climate change from extreme weather, as well as a general shift towards reporting becoming the norm. There is also recognition that there are benefits in managing climate risk such as reduced costs, the opportunity to pursue innovative thinking and more robust planning.
Nearly 30 per cent of companies are assessing risks and opportunities for less than six years into the future. As several are in the energy, materials and financial sectors, this timeframe is considerably shorter than these organisations' investment horizons.
Seven Australian organisations have committed to set emissions reduction targets consistent with the global effort to keep temperatures well below the 2-degree threshold through the Science Based Targets initiative of CDP, UN Global Compact, WRI and WWF.
Who is accountable and how are they doing it?
The highest level of direct responsibility for managing climate issues often rests with the board, while other reporting companies cite senior management as responsible. Attention is being given to a supportive organisational culture in which employees and managers are incentivised to drive initiatives that lower emissions.
Climate scenario analysis is still in its infancy in Australia. In 2016, only 15 per cent of ASX CDP reporters made mention of the tool in their submission. One of the previous challenges of undertaking scenario analysis was the lack of a standardised methodology and framework. With the TCFD recommendations and guidance we anticipate seeing a significant increase in its uptake over the next few years.
Who's who
The Financial Stability Board (FSB) is chaired by Mr. Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England. The FSB is an international body that monitors and makes recommendations about the global financial system. The Task-force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) has 32 members; is global; its members were selected by the Financial Stability Board and come from various organisations, including large banks, insurance companies, asset managers, pension funds, large non-financial companies, accounting and consulting firms, and credit rating agencies. The Chairman of the Task Force is Michael Bloomberg, the prominent US business person and former Mayor of New York City.
What does TCFD do?
To help identify the information needed by investors, lenders, and insurance underwriters to appropriately assess and price climate-related risks and opportunities, the Financial Stability Board established an industry-led task force: The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (Task Force). The Task Force was asked to develop voluntary, consistent climate-related financial disclosures that would be useful to investors, lenders, and insurance underwriters in understanding material risks.
What did it release in June this year?
In June 2017, the Financial Stability Board's Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) published a standardised international framework of recommendations to assist organisations to identify and assess how climate related impacts can and may affect the financial performance of their business. Proactive climate risk and opportunity disclosure and management will generate insights for the reappraisal of business models in view of the realities of physical impacts of climate change and the transition to a low carbon economy. Making this change will lead to more efficient markets and a more stable, resilient and sustainable economy.
What are the four key recommendations?
- Governance: Disclose the organisation's governance around climate-related risks and opportunities.
- Strategy: Disclose the actual and potential impacts of climate-related risks and opportunities on the organisation's businesses, strategy, and financial planning where such information is material.
- Risk Management: Disclose how the organisation identifies, assesses, and manages climate-related risks.
- Metrics and Targets: Disclose the metrics and targets used to assess and manage relevant climate-related risks and opportunities where such information is material.

2019 Lamborghini SC18 – The Most Ultimated Aventador
The Squadra Corse has decided to take to an even more extreme level the transalpine sport, creating this superb 2019 Lamborghini SC18.
Recently the "swan song" of the Aventador was presented, with the SVJ obtaining the Nurburgring record (meanwhile recovered by Porsche ). But, after all, life goes on, and Squadra Corse, the brand's division of competition, has decided to elevate this sport to new heights. Thus is born the Lamborghini SC18 Alston, the first special project signed by the Squadra Corse. But even though it's a model designed for extreme rink performances, it's still cool to rush madly with him on public roads (obviously, following traffic rules).
In addition to the look capable of scare any supercar that sees this insane bull in the rearview mirror, the aerodynamics of the Aventador was even more optimized for the 2019 Lamborghini SC18. Something that can be proven by the elements in red in the bodywork of this model with a ground clearance of 109mm. These additions are strategically placed where they have a noticeable impact on the ability to tear the wind. As for example in the bonnet with air intakes that are inspired by the Húracan GT3 Evo of competition, also the SuperTrofeo EVO models that are obtained the blades in the body, side skirts and upper air inlet. And, as the idea is to go even to the limit of aerodynamic capacity, we still have a huge rear wing in carbon fiber and adjustable in three levels.
2019 Lamborghini SC18 Engine Specs & Performance
Another highlight is the engine cover, with 12 very aggressive openings, perhaps to remember the number of cylinders of the powerful propeller. We had already mentioned in this article the Aventador SVJ, that equips a motor of 770 Hp and 720Nm. It is precisely this power that also emanates this V12 6.5L of the New Lamborghini SC18, channeled through a seven-speed transmission. In 'Jota', this allows to reach 100km / h in just 2.8 seconds, but this value can be improved to even more incredible levels. After all, in addition to the new aerodynamic elements, the brand chose to use a carbon fiber bodywork and used other composite materials, reducing the weight of the Lamborghini SC18.
As for the possibility of seeing this model walk, this will depend on one thing. From the will of the owner, because this was a singular project created for a client of the brand, that surely will be very pleased when receiving this super sport

This is a journey of someone who felt blocked in moving forward in their life. Here is the message from her. "I am following my dream of making art for a living but I am still not able to fully step into my power. I do feel like there is great power in me, but I cant seem to reach it. I still dont believe its possible for me to be truly happy and great. Can you help me figure out whats blocking me and how I overcome those blocks."
Here is a debrief of what happened in her journey that I performed for her.
Chad – a seeker from the Planet Tandalyn appeared and shared his wisdom. Tell a story through dance. Her life story to the point of the part that tells her new path. Feel the story as she dances. No music. The dance moves the emotions held within and lightens the body. Do a soul retrieval and find the lost parts and bring them home so her dance can be strong.
Soul Retrieval – I journey with a hummingbird named Shirley. She guides me to the lost parts and tells me how to collect them. I will then return them to the energy body that I have called into the journey space. While I am doing this, Chad is working with the energy body in developing a dance.
The first energy piece that I have found is a young girl of 5 years old. She is facing a brick wall, trying to climb over it but can't. Frustrated but determined to the point of exhaustion in her efforts. She keeps repeating, "can't climb over it, why? Can't stay here, I want to get out and away." I inform her that I know the way out and it is not over the brick wall. I offer to take her home. No, she replies, I do not want to go home. I explain, not home as in your family, but home with you in your body. She says she is afraid. I tell her I know, but just as you need the other, the other needs you. The person I know is lost without you. She is older now and stronger and she has missed you. You can come back if you do not like it but I don't think you will not be happy, you will see sunshine again. She climbs on my back and I fly her out of this dark place to her energy body.
When we reach the top, I allow her to see the beauty of my journey space. I introduce her to the person, and explain that this is her but she is older now. I show her the hole where she belongs, right there over her left hip. "You mean I left a hole when I left?" Yes "What happens to me now?" When you touch that part of her you will mix with her which is also you too. At first it will be scary but then you will feel love all over you and then you will be part of the older person and you can tell her all you know so she can know how to take care of you. "Will she listen to me?" Yes, she wants to have you and she needs you too. The soul piece reaches out and soon is joined.
When I was gathering the first soul piece I heard other pieces call to me that also wanted to come back. I am returning to the world where lost souls go and gather those pieces. Again, Shirley is my guide.
The next piece I find is 15 years of age and she is very angry. It is actually the anger that has called out as it is not happy in this dark place, but has been trapped. I am guided to eat this piece so that she can nourish herself from me. I want her to release the anger prior to returning the soul piece.
After this there is a 9 years old soul piece, who is very sad. I negotiate with this soul piece even though she called to me. I can take you to a place of happiness, I can help you feel happy. You are all alone here and there are many more parts of you waiting for you. I promise her it won't hurt. She willingly comes with me. I am guided to breathe her into my lungs so that again she can release and process her sadness.
The last piece is 18 years old. She wants to die, keeps cutting her body trying to hurt herself over and over. She yells at me, "Stay away from me" I reassure her, I am here to help. "I don't want your help", was her response. I start negotiating. Hurting yourself is not going to stop the pain, let me hold you. "No!" There is a part of you that is older now, she wants to help you too, she needs you. She wants to understand you but she needs you to come back and tell her your story. You don't have to stay, just please come and see. "I will come and show you it won't work", she replies wanting to prove her point. I say thank you and tell her to follow Shirley as she wants to lead the way. Just think about following Shirley and you will fly. She says she knows this and so we go.
Back in the journey space we are approaching the person who is in a dance with Chad. She asks, "Is she dancing?" Yes, she is beautiful and remember she is you too, I respond. When you felt hurt and abandoned you left and locked yourself away but here is your chance to come back. To learn and grow from each other. You are as beautiful as her but neither of you are complete without each other. "She doesn't want me", is her response. Yes, she does want you just ask her. The person tells her, you are my spunk, my fighter please come back to me. They embrace and combine.
I go to the person and blow into her mouth to release the other soul part. Each time a soul piece returns her aura changes in color. I release the last soul piece from my interior and it quickly embraces her. Her final aura glows green around her body with a hue of blue surrounding it.
The person has had a great time with Chad and I suggest she thank Chad. I then guide the energy body, now fully complete back to her physical body. I thank and dance with Chad prior to my exit.
Here are follow up emails from the person to inform me of how she is doing. All my sessions have follow up coaching sessions to ensure the transition takes place.
"Hi Deb, I wanted to thank you so much for your work on my energy body monday. I feel very different. I honestly feel more complete. Some anger was triggered yesterday from something that wouldn't usually trigger anger, but I knew where it was coming from so that understanding helped me to process it. I think the fear I had was that these hurting parts were coming back to me and I didn't know if I would be able to handle it without spiraling out of control, but you nurtured them within you before sending them back. Thank you, I'm sure that must take a tole on you. My anxiety is noticeably lower than it usually is and I feel comfortable in my body. I want to treat it well."
"Thank you Deb, so much. I definitely feel different. But in a very good way. I feel more in control of myself and more power to manifest the life I want. My anxiety is way down from where it was. I feel really really good. Your a incredible healer and I thank the universe for putting us at the same table!! My husband is in a very dark place, struggling with depression, I feel like I'm able to support him and reassure him yet not get pulled into it like before."

2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Minivan Prepares for Launch
As the first hybrid minivan ever created, the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is sure to be a big splash among parents who want to go green. Many people are wondering, though, just how many parents actually want a hybrid minivan sitting in their driveway.
Well, it looks like we're about to find out.
Family-Friendly Features: Find out all about the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica features
Chrysler is currently starting final preparations for the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid launch. While the gasoline-powered Pacifica model is already gracing the streets of the United States, the American carmaker's engineers are putting the plug-in hybrid model through its final few paces, including calibration checks, on the streets of Detroit before it begins production next month.
With the exception of the eco-friendly powertrain, some might say that the Pacifica Hybrid and the gasoline-powered model are essentially the same—and they wouldn't be wrong. Besides the different powertrains, the only big difference between the two is the special badging and the battery charging port on the Hybrid's left front fender.
The Eco-Friendly Choice: See what makes the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid so great
For power, the plug-in hybrid minivan uses a 3.6-liter V6 engine paired with two electric motors. It also has a lithium-ion battery pack, which is tucked beneath the minivan's second-row seats. The minivan's electric-only range, according to Fiat Chrysler, is 30 miles on a single charge, and it is expected to get 80 MPGe in the city. Its fuel economy rating has yet to be certified by the EPA, though.
There is also no word just yet on the price of this plug-in hybrid minivan.

A Forgotten Nutrient Essential for Health by Gloria Gilbère, N.D., D.A.Hom., Ph.D., D.S.C., EcoErgonomist, Wholistic Rejuvenist
Yes, there IS a silent killer on the loose in developed nations, particularly in America, and most of us will fall victim at some point in our lives.
This silent killer is mostly preventable, yet most of us do little to avoid it, and do even less to educate ourselves about its risks. Unfortunately, conventional medicine mostly deals with this epidemic with drugs – medications often more lethal than the condition(s) they're meant to treat. When wholistic rejuvenation principles are applied, relief and reversal of symptoms deal with inflammation through lifestyle and nutrition-based medicine.
These inflammatory disorders not only compromise our quality of life, they are painful, debilitating, largely mis-diagnosed, over-medicated, and even fatal.
If you doubt in the least that inflammatory disorders has reached epidemic proportions, look closer at the terrifying statistics:
- Cardiovascular disease is the Number-One Killer in the U.S. Americans diagnosed with some form is 80 million (2006), and it killed 1 million in 2005.
- 23.6 million people have diabetes (2007), an increase of 49% from previous ten years. Annually, 1.3 million cases are diagnosed and 200,000 deaths are attributed to it and its complications.
- 50 million Americans are victims of allergies; double from 20 years ago. Hay fever and seasonal allergies in developed countries have increased 100% in each of the last three decades; allergic dermatitis tripled from the 1960s.
- 20 million Americans have asthma, the sixth most common chronic disease.
- 65% of American adults, and 16% of children, are overweight.
- 70 million Americans are victims of arthritis; that's one in three people – twice as many as two decades ago.
- 15 million people in the U.S. suffer from eczema, the most common skin condition in children under age 11.
- 3 to 6 million people in the U.S. are diagnosed with fibromyalgia, not accounting for those not diagnosed, which is estimated to be closer to 12 million. 90% percent of fibromyalgia cases in the U.S. occur in women.
- Over 1 million Americans are victims of inflammatory bowel diseases.
Inflammation in general makes up the combination of factors that is the underlying cause of almost every illness, because those are the conditions that are causing congestion of the ducts and vessels of circulation and elimination, such as the bile ducts of the liver, the digestive tract, the blood and lymph vessels, the urinary tract, the meridians (Chi ducts) and the hormonal pathways (endocrine system).
Thyroid Matters…
Both T4 and T3 hormones perform several important functions including the regulation of the body's basal metabolic rate (BMR), which determines the amount of energy the body uses simply to function. Therefore, insufficient or excess quantities of these hormones can lead to weight-related as well as many other chronic health disorders.
Iodine Saboteurs…
These days, most of the iodine we get in our diets is from table salt. Iodine was actually added to salt to reduce incidence of goiter (enlarged thyroid gland) back in the 1920s. And that worked for a while. Currently people are cutting back on table salt for other health reasons so they aren't getting much, if any, iodine. What little they do consume may not work effectively, either, even when it's natural sea salt. Iodine depletion has occurred because other minerals like chlorine, fluoride, and bromide, which lower iodine levels in the body by blocking iodine receptors, are increasingly consumed through foods and environmental exposure. Chlorine is now used to purify water instead of iodine. Fluoride, almost universally found in toothpaste and drinking water, blocks the ability of the thyroid gland to concentrate iodine. Bromines, which began replacing iodine in commercial baked goods over 30 years ago, can cause depression, headaches, and even hallucinations.
Rebirth of Ancient Methodologies…
Luckily, not everyone has forgotten what this amazing mineral does for our health. Integrative medical practitioners are bringing iodine back in their clinical protocols. And researchers suggest that boosting iodine consumption improves thyroid health, lowers incidence of breast and fibrocystic disease, prostate dysfunction and promotes overall well-being. The current minimum daily requirement is 150 micrograms (mcg). Typically, we in the United States consume 240 mcg per day – just enough to prevent goiter, but not enough for other truly beneficial health effects. In my practice we do an easy patch test that's been done for centuries to determine if the current amount of iodine is sufficient in the body…remember…what goes ON the skin goes IN the body so this test is extremely accurate as a guide for natural supplementation. If you're not a client and are interested in how to do the easy skin-patch test, go to my website and join my FREE Health Detective Blog at www.yourhealthdetective.com to download all the directions in color from our archives. Remember, it's not only important to take the correct supplement, it's more important that the body can convert it to useable energy – a homeopathic complex of natural iodine from seaweed does that, Naturally. Better yet, my booklet, "Your Thyroid" is available on my website and explains everything you need to know about your thyroid function, how to test it yourself for less than $6. and the recommended amount of supplementation to maintain wellness.
Symptoms of Hypothyroid…
Basically, when the thyroid gland doesn't receive the "fuel" that it needs to function, a thyroid deficiency called hypothyroid develops. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates over 2 Billion people are iodine deficient – with up to 50 Million experiencing serious symptoms of imbalance that go undiagnosed and untreated.
Iodine is especially vital for pregnant women, their unborn babies and young babies as a deficiency can lead to severe developmental issues. Recently, iodine deficiency has been linked to autism in children.
When you consider that industrial farming methods, lack of minerals in the soil, and environmental pollutants have all robbed the soil of natural mineral resources, it translates into poor iodine-content in foods and equates to health disorders that have their roots in iodine deficiency.
The following are the most common disorders/diseases known to include iodine deficiency:
Thyroid enlargement – often called "goiter"
Mental/emotional imbalances such as depression, anxiety, quick temper
Fetal hypothyroidism (improper thyroid function in unborn children – leading to brain damage)
Slow metabolism/weight gain or inability to lose weight
Immune system disorders (fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, Lupus, Scleroderma, etc.)
Hormone disorders (anxiety, lack of sexual interest, and insomnia/lack of restorative sleep)
Breast cysts, soreness, and heaviness
Inability to properly and completely detoxify
Swelling in the body
Sensitivity to cold
Hair loss or severe thinning
Brain fog, memory impairment
High cholesterol even resistant to dietary changes and/or prescribed medications
Gastric forms of cancer
Stiff joints
Our Japanese Neighbors…
By comparison, people in Japan consume more than 12 mg (12,000 mcg) of iodine per day, 50 times more than the average American. Life expectancy in Japan is just over 82 years old – in the United States it's about 78 years and infant mortality there is half of that of the United States. And…American deaths from breast cancer are three times the number in Japan.
One in seven American women today will develop breast cancer. Thirty years ago, when iodine consumption was much higher, only one in 20 women developed breast cancer. Women in Japan who consume high amounts of dietary iodine have much lower rates of breast cancer and thyroid problems. However, when women emigrate from Japan to the United States and begin eating a Western diet, with its fractional amount of iodine, their incidence of breast cancer and thyroid disease increases dramatically.
Scientifically Speaking…
Beyond thyroid support, iodine's anti-cancer functions may be amongits most important benefits. Scientific tests exposing estrogen-sensitive breast cancer cells to iodine show the cells are less likely to grow and spread. Fibrocystic breast disease is a common condition involving swelling, tenderness, and discomfort of the breasts. In one study, 98% of women receiving iodine treatment were pain-free by the study's end, and 72% had improvements in breast tissue.
Iodine, Naturally…
Iodine is available in various forms, each of which affects specific tissues in the body. If thyroid issues are your concern, potassium iodide is best absorbed by the thyroid. Breast tissue uses iodine most efficiently in the form of molecular iodine. Consider a supplement that includes more than one form like that found in a homeopathic blend. The most effective formula I've used and recommended is a homeopathic proprietary blend called Wholistic Thyroid Balance which contains three forms of iodine; sodium iodide, potassium iodide, and molecular iodide (from kelp).
If you're extra-sensitive to cold, put on weight easily, have dry skin, feel "foggy", or are victim of soft and connective tissue pain like fibromyalgia, you may be deficient in iodine. Other easy-to-recognize signs include a thinning of the outer third of the eyebrows, stiff joints, and dull, lusterless hair. If these sound like common symptoms, it's no surprise – most people don't get the iodine they need!
