Drawings and Graphic Works
"I have always considered drawing not as an exercise of particular dexterity… but as a means deliberately simplified so as to give simplicity and spontaneity to the expression, which should speak without clumsiness, directly to the mind of the spectator."
"Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence."
"If I trust my drawing hand it is because in training it to serve me, I forced myself never to let it take precedence over my feelings."
Matisse considered his drawing to be a very intimate means of expression. The method of artistic execution — whether it was charcoal, pencil, crayon, etcher's burin, lithographic tusche or paper cut — varied according to the subject and personal circumstance. His favorite subjects were evocative or erotic — the female form, the nude figure or a beautiful head of a favorite model. Other themes relate to the real or imagined world of both Oceania and the Caribbean -- the lagoons, the coral and the faces of beautiful women from these far off lands. Still other subjects were inspired by classical mythology.
Matisse often made drawings to inform his paintings and sculptures, feeling that these drawings should be quick, gestural exercises that captured the form and emotion evoked in him by the subject. As the most direct expression of the artist's thoughts, drawing often helped Matisse to work out compositional and stylistic problems or new ideas. During the mid-1930s, he created distinctive series of pen-and-ink drawings on the subject of the artist and his model, while in the early 1940s he conceived his famous sequences of Thèmes et Variations, sensitively drawn spare works in elegant, unshaded line, describing simplified forms of female figures or still lifes. In the late 1940s and early '50s, his drawings become bolder, the contour line thicker, the forms even more simplified and devoid of detail. The latest large drawings of acrobats (1951–52), executed with a thick brush placed at the end of a long stick, are made up of contour only. They are contemporaneous with a cutout series of Blue Nudes, and the two mediums seem to represent two different approaches to form and space. The relationship between figure-ground becomes ambiguous and space complements the intended form. The form appears almost sculptural.
Matisse was also involved with printmaking for more than fifty years. From 1900 until his death in 1954 he completed more than eight hundred intaglios, lithographs, woodcuts, linoleum cuts, and monotypes. His attitude toward printmaking was a somewhat unconventional one in that for him it was a personal process, an extension of drawing, and a means of unwinding after long and intense periods of painting. As such, there were several distinct times during which Matisse was particularly active in the medium: 1906, 1914, and during the 1920s. In 1929 alone he made more than one hundred etchings and drypoints.
The intimate nature of Matisse's printmaking is visible in his working process. Unlike many artists who depended on close relationships with master printers in their workshops, Matisse spent more time on an etching press installed in his studio that allowed him to print when and as he liked. This intimacy is also evident in his choice of subjects, which were mostly portraits of friends, family, and fellow artists, as well as images of female figures and nudes, including a great number of odalisques made after a trip to North Africa.
Matisse's etchings and drypoints were executed on a small scale with linear fluidity, giving them a sense of immediacy and spontaneity, like pages in a sketchbook. Alternately, his lithographs were on a larger scale and made grander statements. These lithographs exploited the tonal possibilities of the medium that allowed Matisse to achieve effects of volume and depth.

Signs to look for when identifying a bed bugs infestation
1. Bed bugs Blood Smears and Stains
Blood stains resulting from a bed bug bite are often visible on lighter-colored sheets and pillow cases. The stains are typically dark or rusty spots of excrement. But these signs of an infestation won't always be found on bedding, because bed bugs are highly mobile and move fast. In addition to bedding, stains can be visible on furniture, clothes, and even walls.
2. Bed Bug Feces,Fecal Stains,Skins Cast Shed
Unlike blood stains, fecal spotting tends to be black or dark in color. The stains are from partially digesting blood and clustered in groups in areas that bed bugs inhabit. The spots will smear if wiped with a wet rag. Evidence of fecal spotting is usually visible in their typical hideouts, like along mattress seams, box spring edges, and corners.
Bed bugs are small, oval parasitic insects that are light brown or reddish-brown in color but are hard to spot. Nocturnal in nature, they feed and move quickly. As they multiply, bed bugs tend to hang out together until overcrowding forces them into other areas. They are fantastic hitchhikers and can end up anywhere, including phones, purses, backpacks, clothing, etc. Look for them along mattress seams, box spring edges and corners, and baseboards.
3. Active Bed Bug Bites
Bites are not initially felt because of a natural anesthetic in the saliva of bed bugs. Often, it is difficult to distinguish bed bug bites from other insect bites, like those from mosquitoes. One sign, however, is that bites sometimes appear in a line of three, known as "breakfast, lunch, and dinner" by disease experts. Bites create small red welts that become itchy and eventually blister. Bed bug bites can occur anywhere on the body, including the face.
4. Bed Bug Eggshells
Throughout their life cycle, bed bugs will shed their skin – or molt – five times before becoming an adult. The discarded shells look like clear, empty exoskeletons and can be found in box springs, wood framing, inside books, telephones, radios, and carpet.
5.Distinctive Odor
Bed bugs have a sweet musty smell, which some people have said smells like coriander, almonds or nearly over-ripe raspberries. I think its kind of a pungent, sickeningly-sweet smell and would lean more toward the almost rotting raspberry description. The smell is more obvious in heavier infestations or where the bugs have become agitated. Smelling them is not a reliable way to confirm a bed bug infestation, but their distinctive scent does allow bed bug sniffing dogs to pinpoint their hiding places effectively when visual evidence is not easily found.
Looking for bed bugs is similar to looking for fecal spots in that bed bugs often leave numerous fecal spots where they get together after feeding.

The Oxford Dictionaries—just like many other companies and brands—has given its logo a modern makeover.
The new logo does away with the Serif font, replacing it with a Sans-serif one. It also has been given a fresh coat of sky blue paint.
What stands out the most is the inclusion of a monogram, which hides the letters 'O' and 'D'. The monogram was never present in the old logo.
However, according to the readers of UnderConsideration, they have pointed out that the new Oxford Dictionaries logo looks a lot like the logo of headphone brand 'Beats by Dr Dre'.

Re-Imagining Kurosawa:
Academy Award winning Filmmaker, Film Producer and Screenwriter Akira Kurosawa (March 23, 1910 - Sept 6, 1998) was one of the greatest filmmakers of our time, who inspired many of the world's greatest filmmakers such as George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola. Kurosawa's ground-breaking masterpieces inspired such classic movies as Star Wars, The Magnificent Seven, and A Fistful of Dollars, to name just a few.
In this lecture, Dr. David Desser will help you "Re-Imagine Akira Kurosawa" as he provides you unique insight into Kurosawa and his classic film, High and Low(1963), which was adapted from Ed McBain's detective novel King's Ransom.
Panel discussion/Q&A session follows the lecture.

1. Why did you choose Anaheim University's MA in TESOL program?
I chose this program because of the quality of the professors and the online setup allowed me to keep a flexible schedule. Also, Anaheim does not have a practicum, which is great. Anaheim recognizes that its students are already working in TESOL situations, so we can use the settings that we are currently in to aid us in our studies.
2. Can you tell us about your career to date?
Currently, I am working in Japan as an Assistant Language Teacher (ALT) with the JET Program. I work at one junior high school and two elementary schools.
3. How do you expect your Masters to further your career?

The objective of the initiative 'System of Promoting Appropriate National Dynamism for Agriculture and Nutrition' (SPANDAN) is to undertake research on understanding the linkages between agriculture, nutrition and health in India. SPANDAN is supported by a grant from Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
Institute of Human Development, National Institute of Nutrition, IRIS Knowledge Foundation and a few independent researchers are collaborating with faculty from Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research on this initiative.
The initiative is going to assemble existing data and fill knowledge gaps through two mechanisms. First, it proposes to use a novel methodology connecting separate sectoral data sets. Second it will build a new integrated survey for understanding the pathways from agriculture to nutrition. As a result this will help along three dimensions.
Among other things, SPANDAN will address the data limitations and suggest some ways to overcome the data disconnect. Thus, the initiative will strengthen and increase the evidence base for understanding the strength and dynamics of the multiple pathways between agriculture and nutrition. It will provide policy analysis and tools for decision makers and advocate inclusion of relevant indicators into data collection efforts to evaluate program and policy impact. The research initiative led by IGIDR seeks to:
The distinctive element of the proposal is the close interaction between development economists, agricultural economists, applied econometricians, clinical nutritionists, and gender specialists building upon the knowledge of all partners in order to address common issues of interest. Each partner and collaborating researcher has independently worked on the issue of agriculture, consumption, gender, and nutrition and has built a body of knowledge. However, the work has been conducted in separate silos and these bodies of knowledge do not interact sufficiently with each other. As a result of the proposed close collaboration, it is expected that the final output would lead to a better understanding of the underlying issues and policy makers would be able to better appreciate the interplay between agriculture, consumption and nutrition outcomes.


text: Revisiting Mahatma Gandhi's words which say that'Economics is untrue which ignores or disregards moral values', Prof Sudarshan Iyengar, former vice-chancellor of Gujarat University asserted that modern economics needs to be based on the Gandhian model of economics. He was speaking at a colloquium programme organised by the Savitribai Phule Pune University on Friday at the university campus. Iyengar said, "Modern economics teaches us to maximise the use with minimum resources. However, Mahatma Gandhi urged everyone to limit the wants. In modern economics, the biggest mistake that modern economic science has…Read More

BC Event Management is pleased to announce that BC Event Management's David Clark (President) and Shane Droucker (Director of Production) won Sports Emmy Awards in the category Outstanding Technical Team Studio, from the National Academy of TV Arts & Sciences for the construction of the Fox Sports Studio on Jack Poole Plaza for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2015.
BC Event Management was contracted by Fox Sports to technically design, engineer, and construct the temporary broadcast studio on the plaza by the Vancouver Convention Centre to host Fox Sports' coverage of the FIFA Women's World Cup in 2015. Many others supplied the all-important broadcast components.
The unique construction challenges of this project included:
- Designing lightweight construction as the studio is on the roof of retail spaces below.
- Very limited use of cranes and lifts as the whole plaza has weight limitations and is finished with paving stones on top of sand.
- Limited time to build (2.5 weeks)
- Challenges to meet strict building codes for permanent buildings even though this structure was only to stand for 30 days.
- Challenges to anchor the structure for seismic and wind load code requirements since the plaza has a membrane seal which should not be penetrated.

<<<Because liberals, Democrats and environmentalists have a limitless inventory of ways they want to control the behavior of people, so they do things just like they do.
In Washington State this November, an initiative to require that food be labeled with if it's genetically modifed or not is on the ballot.
Of course, pretty much ALL food is organic, genetically modified chemicals. But our liberal friends want to promote public prejudice and fear of food that isn't just like what they, the wealthy upper middle class and wealthy, eat.>>>
And how is it that you know what "they" eat? If pretty much "ALL" food is organic (not true, by the way, as I will not pay extra for it and it amounts to a very, very, small percentage of food in my local supermarkets), what's the problem? People are buying it. According to free market theory, it is those choices that count.
I think extensive informational labeling is a waste of effort, but who cares? How can people object to descriptions of what they are eating? It would seem to me that choices in a free marketplace are essential to freedom. Why do conservatives object to people knowing what they are consuming? They can always just ignore it.
BTW, if anyone doubts what I am saying, I will be happy to invite you to my local supermarket and we can roam the aisles. Take notes- let's see what the percentage of "organic" foods is. It would not amount to 1%!
I am really puzzled on this one. It seems to be an issue that exists only in imaginations.

One of the many benefits of receiving that long awaited engagement ring is the ease of daily accessorizing. I have always admired the girls who can effortlessly and flawlessly pair the perfect necklace/scarf/belt with a simple outfit, instantly elevating it from boring to stylish. But as much as I compliment and admire these embellishment- savvy ladies, I don't foresee myself ever having the patience for that extra 30 seconds to latch onto my daily routine. I also have a small problem called ''champagne taste on a beer budget'' where almost every piece of jewelry that catches my eye is comically out of my price range. The same unfortunately applies to each veil/sash/bracelet that I have entertained as potential bridal adornment.
Upon a recent snail-mail inspection, I was thrilled to get notice from the fabulous Marie at Betsy Robinson that my wedding dress has arrived and I should bring all appropriate shoes, undergarments and accessories when I come in for a fitting. The giddy reality of owning a wedding dress quickly halted when I realized that I don't have any of those things. Finding a killer pair of shoes and a wedding-worthy bra weren't necessarily freaking me out, but the idea that my bauble-impaired self would actually have to focus on finding the perfect jewels really threw me for a loop. As I do in all moments of crisis, I paid a visit to the internet. With a non-negotiable price range and semi-decent idea of the look I was aiming for, the search began. Hours later the search continued and I was still at a loss. If I liked it, it was comparable in price to a mid-sized sedan, and if I could afford it, it looked straight out of Claire's circa 2002. Slightly irritated and very ''thirsty,'' I had no choice but to put this mission on the backburner for the time being.
A few days later, during one of my dozen or so obsessive email checks, I spotted an email from Rent the Runway, an online store that rents high end accessories for a fraction of the retail price. I sort of recalled signing up out of curiosity when the company was in its infant stages but never delved any further. And like a message delivered straight from my Fairy Godmother, the subject line read ''Introducing: Our New Wedding Boutique.'' After 15 minutes of wracking my brain for the randomly created password of days past, access was granted.
Although the site was promoting their recently cultivated bridal boutique, I opted to peruse the entire jewelry collection. Categorized by earrings, bracelets, necklaces, etc, it was easy for an already overwhelmed shopper like me to focus on one key piece at a time. Equally impressive was the array of designers and prices. I instantly fell in love with an art-deco style bracelet with a retail price of $500+ but a rental fee in the $70 range. As I continued my search, I encountered page after page of viable options that I would happily spend the $50-$80 on, even if just for a day.
With so many worthy options, I have yet to make any final decisions but that's not a terrible problem to have. This type of service may not appeal to everyone, but for a person like me who wants celebrity-worthy accessories with a fraction of the price tag and commitment, Rent the Runway is an invaluable resource.

Quote of the Day - I see the boys of summer in their ruin.
The Supremes Call 'Em Like They See 'Em: Major League Baseball Strikes Out
Back in 2005, Major League Baseball pitched some fast heat at fantasy baseball, and specifically C.B.C. Distribution and Marketing, Inc., the company that set up rotisserie leagues and provided baseball stats to its customers. MLB filed suit against CBC, claiming that the league owned the stats. CBC countered and claimed the stats were in the public domain.
If you've never played fantasy baseball, it's baseball on paper - you create your own team and trade players, but you keep score using the real baseball player's actual stats. In other words, if your player hits a home run in real life, then he hits a home run for your team, even though the actual player might be on the Chicago Cubs, but you have him on your team named Dave's Demons, along with other players from other unrelated teams all over the real league.
Yeah, I know: geek city; but come on, a lot of people love it.
In the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals where the case landed, the court there had no trouble dispatching MLB's claims, and ruled for CBC. Undaunted, Major League Baseball, joined by the union representing the players, filed a petition with the United States Supreme Court seeking to overturn the decision.
Just Monday, the Supremes summarily declined to hear the case, so the lower court's ruling stands, and fantasy baseball is safe to play once again. MIPTC called this one when the case was first filed, and predicted this win for CBC.

Recent reviews
Very Good 8.0 From 954 reviews
The hotel is a bit old but otherwise great. Room was very clean and staff very friendly. Location is fantastic! We could easiliy walk to the French Quarter and the WWII museum and even walked to Mardi Gras World but took the free shuttle back. The only surprise we had that there is no parking right at the hotel and it was a shock at first to be charged $40/day for valet parking. However, the parking garage they use is only 3 blocks away and after we were explained how to find it, we parked the car by ourselves and paid "only" $20/day.
The pull out sofa was horrible and very uncomfortable. It needs updates but it did suite our adult family for one night. The road traffic noise was loud too. I would not stay again due to the uncomfortable beds and sofas
The Clarion is in a great location. We were able to walk to several restaurants and Orlando International Outlet Mall. If you're ambitious Universal is a 20 minute walk, if not, the shuttle leaves at scheduled times.
It was hard to locate the hotel since incorrect address was given through the website. We only stayed for 1 night therefore we could not give much feedback. Hotel does not have elevator so if you have heavy luggage, it will be hassle. In general, it's a moderate hotel, do not expect a lot.
Great stay! Family of 6 two rooms. Only complaint is water pressure could be better in the shower.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Peter is working to plant biblical churches in Germany. Throughout the week, he and his co-worker Nathanael Armisen are teaching, preaching, and evangelizing in the streets. Peter is a member of the Reformed Baptist Church in Wetzlar (Hessen). He and his wife Priscilla have one son, Josiah.
This testimony was written to give glory to Christ alone. It is not about me but about the sovereign grace of the Lord. He shares His glory with no one else, so we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord.
According to God's providence, I was born in Germany in 1985. I experienced a godless and consequently, sorrowful childhood. I grew up in an atmosphere of complete neglect, in a house where all of the rooms, including my own, were trashed with piles of rubbish. My mother left me when I was about 9 years old and fled from Germany. Some days later, I was found alone. My father was rarely ever at home, as he worked as a truck driver. I was sent to various psychologists, but none could help me. I had already seen and experienced too much, and there was nobody who could heal my deep wounds.
My life did not change. As a matter of fact, it was quite the contrary. My stepmother was a strong alcoholic, and this brought my life even further into the pits. Having no rules and no purpose in my life, I started drinking and doing other things to daze me. Rage was burning like a fire inside of me, and those around me had to suffer from it. I became a criminal, and while still a child, I carried weapons. I stole things, rioted, and got involved in fights. At school, I humiliated and threatened my fellow students on a daily basis. I hated my life, the people around me, and God. I thought that if He existed, He must also hate me and must have cursed me.
At the age of 16, I lost all desire to live. I decided to commit suicide; yet my destructive plans never became a reality. One night, I visited a Filipino friend whose parents were Christians. At his house, I found a tract about Jesus Christ and His work of salvation on the cross. I did not know the Gospel, and my Filipino friend also did not consider the message of Christ important enough to believe it with all of his heart and share it with others. Except for the fact of God directing things according to His providence, I cannot explain why I took the tract with me and read it when I got back home.
In His incomprehensible love and grace, it pleased the Lord to do a great work for me. Though I was an enemy of God worthy of damnation, He opened my eyes to see by faith Him who can save the greatest of sinners. Through the Word of God, the Spirit of God noticeably convicted me of my great sin, and I saw how much I needed Jesus Christ and His work of redemption on the cross. His call in that night was so real and irresistible that I had no other choice and no other desire than to fall on my knees and ask Him to forgive and save me. He gave me new birth; granted me repentance and faith; and declared me righteous, not on account of my works. I had nothing to show, but solely on account of Christ's blood and righteousness. It was He who in grace drew me to Himself even though I did not seek Him.
That night, I experienced how He took away all my rage and set me free from all my chains. He filled me with a peace that passes my understanding and changed my heart so that I now hate sin and love Christ. I could not keep this incomprehensible grace that I experienced to myself. Instead of beating people, I now began passing out tracts and telling people about Christ. I bought myself a Bible and would often read it all day long.
Through studying God's Word, my desire to be baptized and become part of a church became increasingly greater, so that I asked the Lord daily to lead me to Christian brothers and sisters. I knew no Christians who would invite me to visit their church. After some months of solitude, my longing for baptism became especially great. I stopped in front of a big church. Thanks to God's providence, my heart was beating wildly, and it seemed to me that the Lord forbade me to enter that church. At that time, I did not understand why, but I wanted to be obedient. Today, I know that this church, like most churches in Germany, is liberal and does not preach the crucified Christ. I thank the Lord for having protected me.

L'Enjeu mondial
Les migrations
Global Issues
Global Issues: A New Geopolitical Series on Globalization
Human migration is a phenomenon as old as humanity itself. But how do we reintroduce the migratory question in its historical context considering its current global dimension? After publishing a first volume on emerging nations, the "Global Issues" series devotes its 2009 edition to the migrations which will awaken revolutionary and crucial planetary issues for the 21st century.
The book's five sections, with the work of specialists on each question, promote a detailed comprehension of the big debates:
The Migratory Phenomenon offers and analysis of the latest migratory data, including the relationships between immigration and the demographics of destination countries.
Domestic Migrations emphasizes migration patterns within nations, whose scope and diversity are often misunderstood, whether the result of poverty as with the rural exodus in Mediterranean regions, or of profound changes as with the drifting populations of China, or of the authoritarian displacement of entire populations for the purpose of domestic colonization.
The South, Land of Migrations: the south remains the exemplary migration magnet with net fluxes far outstripping northward migration. Doubtless the south, now and in the future, will be the stage where the most violent dramas will play out as a result of economic migrants, refugees of war, dictatorship, environmental or climatic factors, and victims of illegal trafficking.
The North, Between Rejection and Integration examines the reactions of the northern hemisphere when confronted with migrations from the south, restrictive policies at times putting human rights and dignity in peril, and the successes and challenges of different integration models.
A Tool of Diaspora focuses on migrants who form better interconnected diasporas thanks to the internet. The economic impact of new transnational actors, at the interface of communities of origin and destination societies, has sparked debate from the start. Analyzed here are Chinese, Indian, Moroccan and Filipino cases, as well as the co-development, the "global percolation" of skills.
The work concludes with a word on the necessity of international governance on the migratory phenomenon, as regulation of the flux and harmonization of national policies has arisen as an urgent cause.

It's been 7 years since we discovered #ADHD is part of our family dynamic. 7 years since Kiki first tried meds.
She was 19 then and was already diagnosed with Asperger's. I flipped and didn't believe it at first. But the meds helped so much that it was undeniable. Will was diagnosed soon, after and then I followed. Becca took a while longer but is also diagnosed.
Knowledge is power. Meds are not a cure all. Life got better almost immediately after each diagnosis because with it comes with an understanding and a framework for adjustments.
Each of us is living out best life. It's not easy, but together, we have got this. 🥰

Many people who take a CoQ10 supplement notice an increase in energy. But some are under the misconception that the more they take, the healthier they will be. Perhaps you have already heard of it being touted for heart health, vitality, and other benefits. But before you take coenzyme q10 as a supplement, learning some simple facts could help you make a more informed decision.

Review and recommendations, contraindications
CoQ10 is probably beneficial in certain cardiovascular conditions and as an energy booster. There is debate in the medical community regarding the benefit for Parkinson's disease. As of 2017, we are not convinced that CoQ10 is of significant benefit for those with Parkinson's disease. Long-term therapy with 10 to 60 mg a few days a week seems a reasonable option for many individuals. Fortunately, the pace of CoQ10 research has increased over the past decade and the next few years will provide us with additional information on the best way to take advantage of this wonderful nutrient.
High Quality products formulated by a medical doctor
Consider highly popular all natural products formulated by a world famous medical doctor, Ray Sahelian, M.D. These include Mind Power Rx for better mental focus, concentration, and mood; Diet Rx which helps you eat less. It is an effective product with a high rate of reorder; Eyesight Rx for better day and night vision, easier to read and see distance; MultiVit Rx a daily comprehensive multivitamin for more energy and vitality; Joint Power Rx with cmo, msm, glucosamine, chondroitin, for healthy joints; Prostate Power Rx for a healthy prostate gland; Passion Rx with maca, horny goat weed, tribulus, forskolin for sexual enhancement in men and women.
Is it a vitamin?
Coq10 is not a vitamin but a nutrient. It is naturally made in the body. Technically, a vitamin is a substance that the body cannot synthesize or cannot synthesize enough to maintain health and physiological functioning. Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring nutrient and antioxidant found in each cell of the body. This nutrient was first identified by University of Wisconsin researchers in 1957. The supplements is gradually becoming more popular in the USA.
How does it work?
Each cell in the body needs a source of energy to survive so cells break down sugars, fats, and amino acids to make energy. Small enclosures within cells that make this energy are called mitochondria. CoQ10 exists naturally in our mitochondria and carries electrons involved in energy metabolism. CoQ10 is essential in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the basic energy molecule of each cell.
In the bloodstream, CoQ10 is mainly transported by lipoproteins such as LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and HDL (high-density lipoprotein). It is thought that CoQ10 is one of the first antioxidants to be depleted when LDL is subjected to oxidation. Hence, it is an important nutrient that prevents the oxidation of lipoproteins, thus potentially reducing the risk of arteries from forming plaques and getting damaged.
In healthy individuals, CoQ10 is found in high concentrations in the heart, kidneys, and liver. This necessary nutrient is also called ubiquinone.
What foods contain coenzyme q10?
CoQ10 is found in foods, particularly in fish and meats, and small amounts are found in nuts. There is little or none in grains, vegetables or fruits. Some vegetarians may not get adequate amounts of this nutrient, although, fortunately, the body is able to synthesize it when dietary sources are not adequate. Dietary intake through food is about 2 to 5 mg per day.
Studies with CoQ10 have mostly focused on its benefit involving certain types of cardiovascular diseases, including congestive heart failure and hypertension (high blood pressure) and to a certain extent for high cholesterol and in diabetes. Not all the results have been positive and much more research is needed before we determine the full benefits, side effects, and appropriate dosage.
Antioxidant benefit
CoQ10 is an excellent antioxidant.
Anti-aging, longevity
CoQ10 supplement use may improve sense of wellbeing, but whether extra intake increases longevity is not fully clear.
Not enough research is available to determine its role in the treatment of cancer.
A 3-year trial with low-dose recombinant interferon alpha-2b administered twice daily and coenzyme Q10 (400 mg a day) was conducted in patients with stage I and II melanoma. Long-term administration of an optimized dose of recombinant interferon alpha-2b in combination with coenzyme Q10 seemed to induce significantly decreased rates of recurrence and had negligible adverse effects. Melanoma Res. 2007.
Testimonial by a doctor
I see a lot of people with cancer and a Danish Doctor who has been doing a lot of research with coq10 and cancer found that they needed 400mg daily to get any real benefit. I have had people on coQ10 for at least 2 years on that dosage and never seen a side effect of any kind. All my adult cancers take this CoQ10 dosage.
A. When people take CoQ10 in high dosages as a daily supplement for many years or decades, we have no idea how this will interfere with their metabolism. It is unnatural to expose the body to such high dosages. What if we learn 20 years from now that people taking more than 200 mg a day actually live a few years shorter or somehow their mitochondria are not functioning as well? As with hormone replacement therapy, it took decades for the scientific community to find out that it caused more problems than in solved. CoQ10 appears to be a healthy supplement, but who knows for certain that taking more than 100 mg is healthier than taking less? Many people who take CoQ10 also take other supplements or medicines and we have no idea the interactions that could be caused. Plus, what if someone who is used to taking 400 mg a day goes on a trip and forgets their bottle and in the foreign country they can't find CoQ10? If, after years of taking 400 mg their body is used to it, what happens if they stop? What if when they are older and they are on a limited budget they can't afford buying it anymore? There are many answers about high dose CoQ10 use that we don't know yet. We also have reports from quite a few people who actually feel fatigued when they take more than 100 mg. Perhaps high doses for cancer or other conditions is appropriate, but for the general public taking CoQ10 as a supplement for health promotion, there is no proof that taking high dosages is beneficial. We also have to consider the cost, CoQ10 is expensive. For the time being we suggest 30 or 50 mg most days of the week for those who wish to take this supplement.
Benefit for cholesterol
Individuals on cholesterol medicines of the statin class such as Lipitor, Zocor, and others, may consider taking CoQ10 supplements since statins decrease blood CoQ10 levels. To be on the safe side, 30 or 50 mg can be taken a few times a week by those on statin drugs.
Dietary supplementation results in increased levels of coenzyme Q10 within circulating lipoproteins and increased resistance of human low-density lipoproteins to the initiation of lipid peroxidation. Taking a coenzyme q10 supplement is not likely to make a significant influence on cholesterol levels.
CoQ10 reverses muscle damage from statin cholesterol drugs
Scientists now suspect that CoQ10 deficiency may partly or fully contribute to the development of muscle damage in those on these cholesterol lowering drugs. Dr. Giuseppe Caso and colleagues from Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, New York gave 100 mg of CoQ10 for one month to 32 patients using statins. Pain intensity decreased by 40% after a month of treatment whereas patients treated with vitamin E (as placebo) experienced no change in pain intensity. Sixteen of 18 coenzyme Q10-treated patients experienced a decrease in pain. Am J Cardiol 2007.
In clinical practice, we have found that not everyone benefits from coenzyme Q10 for the prevention or treatment of muscle damage from the use of statin drugs.
Statins include: Atorvastatin (Lipitor) Fluvastatin (Lescol) Lovastatin. Pitavastatin (Livalo) Pravastatin (Pravachol) Rosuvastatin (Crestor) Simvastatin (Zocor)
The use of the statin drug Lipitor may cause muscle aches and pains and muscle damage in some patients. It is a good idea to take CoQ10 along with Lipitor. However, there is no guarantee that muscle aches or Lipitor side effects will be prevented with the use of a coenzyme q10 supplement.
Red yeast rice
Is it necessary to take CoQ10 supplement with red yeast rice supplement"
If the red yeast rice extract supplement has compounds that are similar to statins, it may be a good idea to take it. However, if the red yeast rice does not have substances in it that are similar to statin drugs, then there would be no need to take CoQ10 with red yeast rice extract.
Benefit for diabetes
CoQ10 may be beneficial in diabetics. It helps improve the function of endothelial cells lining blood vessels and may slightly help with blood sugar control.
Energy increase
Most people who take a reasonable amount — not too high — notice more energy.
I just wanted to mention that I recently began taking 30 mg of COQ10 and noticed that there was a significant change in my health. I've felt so much better physically and mentally. My ability to focus had been lacking in the past year or so but after taking the nutraceutical I've been able to think clearer. My energy levels are higher, and although I've given up eating beef, I'm noticing a difference in my physical self.
Benefit for heart attacks
In a small trial of patients with new myocardial infarction, CoQ10 — used in addition to aspirin and cholesterol-lowering drugs — decreased the likelihood of further cardiac events for at least one year after the heart attack.
Heart failure
Coenzyme Q10 has certain benefits for heart health and heart disease. A study in patients with heart failure showed improvement in functional status, clinical symptoms, and quality of life in end stage heart failure patients who were placed on CoQ10. More research is needed to find the ideal dosage range. For the time being those with heart failure should not to exceed 50 mg or 100 mg a day.
Kardiologiia. 2013. Coenzyme q10 in complex therapy of patients with ischemic heart disease. The paper contains results of assessment of clinical efficacy and safety of coenzyme Q10 in patients with ischemic heart disease. Coenzyme Q10 (60 mg/day for 8 weeks) added to basic treatment of patients with stable class II-III angina significantly improved clinical status of these patients without clinically significant side effects.
Dr. Romualdo Belardinelli, of Lancisi Heart Institute in Italy studied 23 patients with moderate to severe heart failure. They were assigned to four weeks each of CoQ10 supplements or placebo pills, with or without supervised exercise training. The dosage was 100 mg three times a day. Those taking CoQ10 had improvement in peak exercise capacity. There was an improvement in cardiac function with treatment. Combining with exercise training produced more marked improvements than the nutrient alone. The use of CoQ10 improves several aspects of heart failure without any side effects.
We tend to be more cautious on dosages and would prefer keeping the amount of CoQ10, at least initially, to 30 mg or 50 mg once or twice a day. CoQ10 can be taken with breakfast and or lunch. The study went on only for one month, and even though the researchers did not observe side effects on 100 mg three times a day, it is possible that prolonged use of 300 mg a day over several weeks or months could lead to adverse events. We also don't have a good understanding how Coenzyme Q10 supplements interact with heart medicines.
Hypertension or high blood pressure
CoQ10 may help lower blood pressure by a small amount in some people.
Parkinson's disease
Studies with CoQ10 and Parkinson's disease have not yielded consistent results. CoQ10 at a dosage of 100 mg three times a day was well tolerated but did not show much benefit in midstage Parkinson disease patients. Arch Neurol. 2007.
Weight loss
We have not seen any research that indicates the use of CoQ10 leads to weight loss.
Side effects, danger, risk
CoQ10 is a safe nutrient but side effects can occur if you take too high a dosage for too long without a break. High dosages, such as more than 100 or 200 mg a day, can induce restlessness, fatigue and insomnia. Long term CoQ10 side effects use are not clear at this time. We do not recommend more than 20 to 60 mg of CoQ10 daily on a long term basis without medical supervision. Headaches are rare on high dosages.
CoQ10 Side effect testimonial
My doctor told me to take 100 mg every day, and I am feeling worse than ever: tired, no get up and go, difficulty concentrating, waking up more tired than when I got to bed, falling asleep during the day, you name it. Ever seen a case like that regarding coenzyme q10 side effects?
A. Everyone responds differently to supplements. The dosage of a supplement can make a huge difference. Too high a dose can cause several side effects including insomnia or shallow sleep resulting in tiredness the next day.
Dosage and dose
We believe that high doses are not needed, and may even be unhelpful or detrimental. We have had reports of fatigue when taking dosages above 100 mg. Just as we recently discovered that high doses of vitamin E, generally over 400 units, are not beneficial, or even potentially harmful, we may eventually discover the same about CoQ10. We don't see why most people would require more than 30 or 50 mg a few times a week. We just don't know what kind of CoQ10 side effects may occur by taking several hundred mgs for months and years. More is not necessarily better when it comes to supplements. Plus, many people who take CoQ10 also take other supplements and we don't know what kind of interactions would occur with other herbs, nutrients, and medicines.
Can a normal healthy person start taking CoQ10 with his or her diet on a regular basis like other multivitamins without any harmful side effects. On the other hand, if your body doesn't need CoQ10 but you are taking, would it hurt your body or do any damage?
There is no easy answer to this. Some people may benefit from taking it, others may not. Much depends on a person's diet and metabolism and what other supplements and medicines they are taking. If a person wants to take CoQ10, 30 mg a few times a week could offer benefits without any foreseeable side effects.
Availability — CoQ10 30 mg, 50 mg, 60 mg, 100 mg, 200 mg and and 400 mg
30 mg – this dosage can be taken safely by most people for long term use. We do suggest taking a day off each week, and a few days off each month.
50 mg – this dosage can be taken a few days a week.
60 mg – this can be taken a few days a week.
100 mg – we do not recommend these pills for long term use unless clearly indicated for a medical condition.
200 mg – we do not recommend these pills for more than a few days.
400 mg – we do not recommend these high dosages unless recommended by a health care provider who is experienced with this supplement.
Does the effectiveness matter if it is taken in capsule form or if emulsified in an oil like alpha tocopherol. I read an advertising leaflet that said not to waste money on CoQ10 tablets or capsules, because they cannot be absorbed into blood stream.
A. There are probably differences in absorption between different CoQ10 products, and perhaps oil emulsified products are better absorbed, however, most CoQ10 supplements contain 30, 60 or 100 mg which are dosages far greater than normally needed by the body. Hence, even if 100 percent of the CoQ10 is not absorbed, practically speaking it should not make too much of a difference.
I was watching home shopping network and they were selling CoQ10 in capsule form as opposed to softgel with oil. This nutrient is fat soluble, isn't oil necessary in the softgel for the CoQ10 to be absorbed and won't it in a capsule not be as effective?
A. We don't see a problem with the capsule. Since CoQ10 is taken with breakfast, there's always some form of fat or oil in one's breakfast and the CoQ10 will be absorbed whether taken as a softgel or a capsule.
Does liquid CoQ10 offer advantages over capsules?
A. CoQ10 supplement taken orally as a capsule of softgel works very well and is well-absorbed. For practical purposes, we don't think liquid CoQ10 offers any major benefits.
Drug interactions
The administration of CoQ10 and warfarin does not significantly affect the anticoagulant effect of warfarin in rats. A Human trial shows Co Q10 and Ginkgo biloba do not influence the clinical effect of Coumadin.
L carnitine
Can a vitamin CoQ10 supplement be taken together with L carnitine supplement?
If your dosage is less than 50 mg, and L carnitine is less than 200 mg, then they may taken together a few times a week.
Influence on blood levels
Effects of coenzyme Q10 supplementation on plasma adiponectin, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels in men.
J Med Food. 2010.
The aim of the study was to determine the effects of coenzyme Q10 supplementation on plasma adiponectin, interleukin (IL)-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF )-alpha levels in sedentary men. The participants were randomly allocated to two groups. Seven participants received oral coenzyme Q10 100 mg/day supplementation, and seven participants received placebo (glucose) for 8 weeks. Supplementation did not affect plasma adiponectin, IL-6, and TNF-alpha levels in sedentary men.
Q. I was reading information about a form of CoQ10 (branded as Accel) that is allegedly much better absorbed into the bloodstream. The Accel folks say it skips the conversion process from ubiquinone to ubuquinol.
A. We are not aware of any human studies that indicate Accel is a healthier way to supplement with CoQ10 than the standard and accepted forms that have been available for decades.
I have some tremors in my hands. I am on Rhytmol / Propafenon for my arrhythmias. I tried going off it, but the arrhythmias returned. I tried substituting with Magnesium, CoQ10, and fish oil, but to no avail. I've heard the taurine can help reduce the tremors. Is that true?
A. We have seen no research to indicate taurine would be of benefit.

Music Tech
I thought I would chime to back up comments about the Mac platform being good for media - I'm at uni studying Music Tech (BA), and ALL our music software is run on Mac Machines.
I defiantly think the support guy should have asked what the consumer actually wanted to do, but from using mac's I can see his point. And to be called a fanboy is plain rude - I think its probably appropriate to ask people why they use mac before accusing them of being fashion idiots.

Silicic volcanoes produce many styles of activity over a range of timescales. Eruptions vary from slow effusion of viscous lava over many years to violent explosions lasting several hours. Hazards from these eruptions can be far-reaching and persistent, and are compounded by the dense populations often surrounding active volcanoes. I apply and develop satellite and ground-based remote sensing techniques to document eruptions at Merapi and Sinabung Volcanoes in Indonesia. I use numerical models of volcanic activity in combination with my observational data to describe the processes driving different eruption styles, including lava dome growth and collapse, lava flow emplacement, and …

Pregnancy brings joys and excitement, but it also brings with it fatigue and exhaustion. Sleep disturbances like sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, and heartburn are common amongst pregnant women. Sleep deprivation is not only exhausting for the expectant mother but can put her and her baby at risk for preterm birth and gestational diabetes. However, there are steps you can take to help get better sleep while you're expecting.
Sleep disturbances can start at any time during pregnancy. During the first trimester, an increase in the hormone progesterone causes daytime sleepiness and disrupts sleep at night. These sleep problems can continue throughout pregnancy and can lead to insomnia that manifests itself as a difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.
Other sleep problems may come from increased pressure on the bladder, which leaves many women waking several times each night to relieve themselves. Heartburn, leg cramps, and anxiety—the list can go on and on. While all these disturbances may be normal, sleep deprivation can have serious consequences for pregnant women.
A recent study published in Obstetrics & Gynecology reports a disturbing link between sleep disorders and the risk of preterm birth. The study showed that 14.6 percent of women with sleep disorders went into preterm labor versus only 10.9 percent of women who had regular sleep patterns. Researchers encouraged more rigorous sleep disorder screening for pregnant women to discover if there were treatable sleep disorders or behavioral modifications that could help women get more sleep.
When you're expecting, you face more challenges than normal when it comes to getting a good night's rest. You're growing body changes almost daily, which makes getting comfortable no easy task. Many women find an extra pillow or a body pillow to keep between the knees helps relieve back discomfort at night. Also, keep the bedroom cool to counteract the overheating that many women experience.
Your increased appetite might work against you if you're not careful. Avoid caffeine and chocolate late in the afternoon and evening. They can keep you awake or give you heartburn as you're trying to settle down for the night. Try to eat dinner early so you have plenty of time to digest and reduce discomfort from a full stomach. If you need a light snack before bed, consider foods that promote good sleep. Dairy products like milk, yogurt, and ice cream have calcium that promotes the production of melatonin, a sleep-inducing hormone.
You'll also want to make sure you get regular exercise. Exercise is an important part of any pregnancy because it prepares the body for the tough work of delivery. However, it also helps make you tired at the end of the day. It's best to exercise early in the day as working out too close to bedtime can pump your body full of endorphins that will keep you awake.
When you finally get to lay your head on the pillow, be sure to shut off your screens. The bright light from televisions, smartphones, and e-readers can confuse the brain causing it to suppress melatonin production. Turn off the screens an hour before bed and grab a good book to help lull yourself off to sleep.
