Synonyms for Mother: Parent, Source, Attend, Nurse, Nurture, Protect, Provide for, Accommodate, Nourish, Oblige, Raise, Rear, Shelter, Sustain.
Being a mother is all encompassing. We can feel lost and found, overwhelmed and pulled together, all at the same time. Some days are easier and better than others. At FITMOM, we encourage our mothers to take the road of motherhood one day at a time. Yet, we know that sometimes, even one day at a time can be hard. So, if and when you are feeling overwhelmed, here are ten sanity savers. Pick one and try it for 1 minute to help you get grounded.
Meditate: This is not a word that we should be afraid of. People who practice meditation are engaged in thoughtless awareness and are present in the moment. If meditation is new to you, try a mantra instead. We like "This too shall pass" or "I can handle this". Repeat these words for one minute.
Self-massage with a tennis ball: Use a tennis ball to apply pressure to any areas of your body that need a little TLC. Roll the ball on your legs, in between your shoulder blades or on the bottom of your feet. Repeat for one minute.
Engage in a venting session: Call a friend on the phone and engage in a one minute vent session. Be prepared to reciprocate the next time she needs to unload her concerns and frustrations.
Dance party: What's your guilty pleasure song? Put it on, turn up the volume and dance like no one (except maybe your baby), is watching. Repeat for as many one minute segments as you need. We had a dance party while we wrote this list!
Laughing: A good hearty laugh is a wonderful release of tension. Check out this guy… if you are not laughing now, then watch it again! It only takes about one minute.
Hug someone: Hugs release oxytocin, the hormone of love. A good hug can help you feel calm and connected, especially if you are getting a hug from someone you love, like your baby, child or partner. Stay in the hug for one minute and notice how you feel afterwards.
Enjoy a stretch: Tight chest muscles are a common complaint amongst new moms. Start with a few shoulder rolls and then stand with your right hip against a wall and stretch your arm behind you. Pair this stretch with some deep breathing and feel your chest muscles release. Hold for 30 seconds and then repeat on the other side, for a total of one minute.
Focus on breathing: Deep breathing helps to calm and relax your central nervous system (fight or flight response). Tension and anxiety is released on the exhale. Breathe in through your nose and imagine your belly as a water pitcher. Fill it will air from the bottom to the top. Exhale with a sigh as you slowly empty your pitcher. Do this for one minute.
Self affirmation: Tell yourself that you are are great. Tell yourself that you are doing a great job. Say it loud and say it proud for one minute! We think this young lady does it well!
Gratitude:Be thankful. Gratitude allows you to adjust your focus. Instead of focusing on what you're lacking, shift your focus to embrace all that you have for one minute. Gratitude helps to put thing into perspective. Count your blessings, you have many.

Children's Parliaments:
India is home to more than 19% of the world's children. More than one – third of the country's population, around 440 million, is below 18 years of age. It is estimated that around 170 million or 40% of India's children are vulnerable. (Ministry of Women and Child Development, Government of India, Annual Report 2014 – 2015)
India's children are victimized by ineffective administration and coordination of legislation, policies and practices affecting them, at both federal and state levels, with the national bodies and plans failing to provide the needed authority and coordination. This includes failure to disaggregate data on the groups of children needing special protection, failure to allocate sufficient resources to children, loss of some of these resources through corruption, and failure to implement the complaints mechanism available to children through the National Commission for the Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR).
Children's rights in India are further threatened by inadequate involvement of civil society in defending their rights, poor monitoring of services to them, and failure to protect them from businesses and corporations exploiting them.
Recognizing this gap, UNICEF's Strategic Plan and the new Country Programme (2018-2022) aims to address gaps in the enabling environment, including social norms, the quality of and demand for services pertaining to the full development of the child in a life-cycle approach that focuses on the windows of opportunity in early childhood and adolescence. Accordingly, Centre For Social Action (State Level Conveyor) and PRATYeK (National Level Conveyor) have created a partnership along with the technical support of UNICEF Maharashtra, for the ultimate objective of forming of a forum of the Children's Parliament at District and State Level.
The need for children's parliaments was realized when the best interests of the child were not being taken into account in all legal situations and children's participation was and still is blocked in courts, families, schools, local councils and state consultations. Also all the earlier methods and approaches considered to tackle the problem and needs involved only adults advocating for the rights of children. However, children tend to get excluded from conversations that relate to their own issues and therefore the idea of including children in all matters relating to themselves through the medium of children's parliaments was developed.
A Children's parliament is essentially formed within a neighbourhood and is comprised of 35 -40 children within the age group of 12 – 17 years. Before being formed into a parliament, the children within this group have to undergo a process of being developed into a strong group, they should learn about their rights and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) and only when they have all these basics they can move towards the step of elections for the parliament. Apart from being elected as the Prime Minister, Parliamentary Affairs Minister and a Speaker, the rest of the members will be elected as Ministers for the SDG's. Each member within this parliament will have a role as a Minister or Deputy Minister of any of the SDG's. Once this parliament is formed, the children will be encouraged to identify and take up issues within their communities that affect them. Also, these parliaments will be encouraged to be inclusive; this means that it will include all the vulnerable groups of children including children with disabilities.
The idea is that these parliaments although formed by NGO's, their role within the parliaments will be restricted to that of a facilitator and eventually the children of the parliament will be motivated to function on their own with limited or no support from the NGO.
Centre For Social Action along with PRATYeK will work with those NGOs who already have an existing children's parliament or those who wish to form one in Maharashtra.
The Project Objectives and Key Results are mentioned below;
Project Objectives:
- To map out the existing children's parliaments within the state of Maharashtra.
- To reach out to different networks within the State of Maharashtra to set up Children's Parliaments.
- To ensure that children are consistently involved in engaging with different levels of Governance within the State on the issue of child marriage and prevention of violence against children.
Key Results:
- A State Forum of children is formed, which comprises of Child Representatives of Children's Parliaments of Networks of different divisions of Maharashtra.
- Capacities of young citizens enhanced towards becoming Advocates/Ambassadors of Child Right's including child marriage and prevention of violence against children.
Centre For Social Action along with PRATYeK will further support the NGOs via
- Training of Trainers
- Mentoring and
- Hand holding throughout the process of forming a children's parliament

Today, Tuesday 20th January, 2009, Barack Obama officially becomes the President of the United States of America. While there is much elation about this occasion, especially as the Bush era was marked by atrocities and war crimes, Obama has not mapped out a clear path for the change that he constantly spoke about on the campaign trail. However, Obama did express some views on several key issues recently and we can gauge those to see if he is really about meaningful change.

text: Love is the most complex and mystifying concept that humanity grapples with, but it's also what gives life meaning. In his first letter to the Corinthians, Paul tackles these complexities with a magnificent exposition of what exactly love is – and what it isn't. But historically, the church has relegated his words to be used in wedding ceremonies, as if it only represents romantic or marital love. Join us as we explore what Paul really meant when he wrote "Love Is…"

My name is John Seccombe and I have been reading your web site and can give you the true story of the Mural painted by John Brill.
I visited the site whilst stationed in Libya. Intrigued by it - I was told by the locals that John Brill (the artist) was a prisoner in the building and had painted the mural with boot black.
Curious about this I wrote to the Old Codgers of the Daily Mirror. My letter was published and read by Mrs. Brill, mother of the artist and she wrote to me on 31st January 1966 giving me the history of her son's ambitions and achievements.
John was commissioned by the RASC Officers at Bardia to paint the walls of the mess. The mural was called the Pleasures of Avarice and an opposite wall was the Pleasures of Art. He started on the Last Supper but this was not completed. He had produced other murals in the soldier's canteen entitled A Soldier's Leave in Cairo, a work that caused much interest and amusement. The paints were purchased by the men whilst on leave in Cairo and sent up the line by convoy.
I also received a letter from Knight's Castille - the firm for whom John worked before the war and sending me a magazine with other samples of John's artistry.
Also as a result of my letter being printed in the Daily Mirror my half sister wrote to me after we had lost touch for many years.
If you are interested I will scan the letter from Mrs. Brill and send to you. I have attached a copy of the painting that she sent me.
John Seccombe Ex F/Sgt. RAF see Reminisce page
[Don]: Please remember that the mural covers only one wall.
The photograph is split because the wall is too long and the room too narrow for a wide angle lens to take in the whole painting. The opposite wall is bare. The painting is notionally split as stated in Mrs Brill's letter between two subjects.
Mrs Brill, never having seen the room, could only see two photographs joined.
...as for the face in the window - it has a very masculine look to me, the shadow around the lower jaw almost suggests a beard, is it a self-portrait of him looking out onto the world changing from beauty in the dancers to death and hell with the skulls and bodies? If another look is taken though the clothing doesn't seem to fit a male - it looks almost more like a nun's habit but with only a black headpiece.
Andrew Simmonds
I found your page while working on the TEARS The El Adem Radio Service web-page. I found the Bardia pictures very interesting, I didn't get the chance to visit there during my tour in El Adem.
The TEARS web-page has a lot of photographs taken by various members that were at El Adem. Maybe you have already visited the site. If not please take a look you may find some of interest to you.

Mike (webmaster Tears)
I think the person that painted the mural was trying to show what life was like in all areas. not just the rich peoples life but also poor peoples life and what they did in the evening or day.
The man in the window could be looking at all the dancers and people aging from life to death. It is a very confusing painting and it was hard to get an idea of what was going on.
Emily Buck (age 12)
hello dear
I alwayes visit this picture still there now in BERDIA village to soldier bril his picture in museum tobrouk ..its realy great painting . eventually i would like know more about this soldier BRIL
Mousa Saad (Tobruk, Libya)
What building in Bardia are these murals.? I was there many times . Before & after 42
Have you heard of or seen the murals that encircled a large hall in Bennina airfield?
It is excellent art work.On the wall high up near the ceiling.
They were definitly German, From the view of a serviceman in the desert. Humour, with the "Bawdy" thoughts of returning home to his sweetheart .
Although Benina changed hands they were never damaged or harmed in any way.
They were seen by British & Commonwealth troops & American Airforce when they gathered there for the Ploesti Oil field operation.
On discussing Benina with any who had been there, the Murals are always a subject in the conversation. My regret is that it appears there are no photographic copies available. at least I do not think so.
If by chance you have or recieve any imformation on them . I would appreciate hearing from you.
Hoping you are successful with your research

Dear Donald;
I leave in Tripoli, but I have close friends in TBRQ, even I have some work there, here attached some photos token in December 8th 2005 for the mural of j. Brill and the building,
it was so poor I hope to co-operate with some organization to save even the rest of it, it is important for the history of the 2nd war even Libyan history, the people living around it did not understand the historical meaning of it, I wonder if there is any writer have press any subject about this mural in the past it will be important to push saving the rest of it;
How old are u now and how old u was when u visited libya;
If u think to visit libya at any time u r welcome I'm here :).
Sorry that I have no pic for the mural only :(
Best regards,
Hatem Sabrey
Thanks for putting those photos up...
I spent some time diving around Bardia in 1969/70, just prior to being thrown out of Libya with the rest of the British Forces.
I always had a soft spot for the history of Libya, particularly as at the time it was a bit of a time-warp. I'd be interested in seeing more of these photos as and when they become available.

I visited Bardia in 1969 when I lived in Tobruk when my Dad was in the RAF there.
We lived on the street from Tobruk Garrison down to the harbour opposite a sewage works.
I was 14. We had a school trip to Bardia. We were told the painting was done in black boot polish.
A wonderful picture of everything the man remembered and held dear to his heart.
I remember standing on the top of the cliffs near Bardia, looking down over the crystal clear Mediterranean sea. (There was remains of Italian graves on the cliff tops - I think)?
Also remember people shackled at there ankles breaking up rocks with a sledge hammer. I have often wondered if the masterpiece was still there. How good it would be to save it!
Sue Jones
I was stationed in RAF El Adem in 1964 and I too visited Bardia.
To get there you had to follow the only coast road east from Tobruk. It amused me that you came to a crude sign post just outside Bardia which showed two destinations - the left fork was 'Bardia' the right fork was 'Egypt'.
On entering the town, which was in ruins exactly as left when the Italians vacated it during the 2nd world war, we asked a local, who was living in the ruins, where the mural was.
He showed us into the derelict mediteranean styled house through, what looked like, bomb damaged rooms to the mural itself.
We were also told that the artist was a british POW held by the Italians and that it was produced using boot black. We were also told that it depicted the struggle between east and west capitalism against idealism, art against opportunism.
I remain puzzled as to the artist's intention; but I feel that the interpretation is meant to be deeper than that described by his mother. I still remain fascinated by this mural which' for me shows a maturity beyond the artist's years.
Afterwards we went to the Italian graves on top of the cliffs which had been desecrated following the liberation of Libya by the allies.
The graves had been concreted in - yet still the locals managed to break into them and throw the bodies over the cliffs. Human bones were strewn everywhere. We watched prisoners on the beach below clearing the flotsam and jetsom from the water line.
I think an important official lived nearby who used this beach for bathing.

The hallucinogenic mint Salvia divinorum is traditionally consumed by indigenous tribes in Mexico as a medicine and for spiritual purposes. While many states and countries have criminalized salvia, science shows that its active ingredient, salvinorin A, has several potential uses, such as to help relieve pain, decrease inflammation, and improve depression. Read on to learn more about the benefits, how it works, and risks associated with the use of this herb.
What is Salvia Divinorum?
Salvia divinorum (Sage of the Diviners, Seer's Sage, Yerba de la Pastora, Ska Maria) is one of more than 1,000 species of sage (Salvia) known worldwide. It is a member of the mint family (Lamiaceae).
The name "salvia" is derived from the Latin salvare, meaning "to heal" or "to save."
Street names for this plant include Magic Mint, Purple Sticky, Lady Salvia, and Sally D [1].
The plant is native to the sierras of Oaxaca, Mexico. The Mazatec tribe who are native to the region use the plant in religious ceremonies and as a medicine for conditions including headaches, joint pain, and arthritis pain [2, 3].
In the 1970s, it was reported that young people from cities in Mexico were traveling to the Sierra Mazateca to purchase Salvia divinorum from the native tribes to make into cigarettes and smoke as a substitute for marijuana [4].
Use in the United States appears to have grown steadily during the 1990s. From 2006 to 2008, the National Survey on Drug Use and Health recorded an 83% increase (from 0.7% to 1.3%) in lifetime prevalence of Salvia divinorum use [5].
Salvia divinorum is sold over the internet and in some shops as a 'legal high,' or alternative to illegal drugs. While laws have been passed in many parts of the world regulating or prohibiting the sale of salvia, including many places in the United States, it still remains a legal alternative to controlled substances in others [6, 7].
In 2008, a study of 1,571 college students found that 4.4% had used the plant at least once within the past year [8].
Researchers have shown an interest in using the active ingredient in Salvia divinorum (salvinorin A), and synthetic analogues (with similar structure) designed to achieve similar outcomes with fewer side effects, to study brain disorders (such as Alzheimer's disease), psychiatric disorders (such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder), pain, and drug dependence [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14].
How Does Salvia Divinorum Work?
Salvia is the most potent of all natural hallucinogens.
The main component responsible for Salvia divinorum's hallucinogenic effects is a unique compound known as salvinorin A [15].
The hallucinogenic dose of salvinorin A in humans is estimated at 250 to 500 μg, which makes it only slightly inferior to LSD, a synthetic hallucinogen that is known for its extremely high potency [16].
The primary mechanism of salvinorin A is activation of kappa-opioid receptors (OPRK1). These are receptors that increase or reduce pain, cause hallucinations, modify bodily perception, motor control, mood, and are involved in depression and addiction [17, 18, 19].
Compared to other opioid receptor activators, salvinorin A causes fewer of the opioid receptors it activates to either desensitize or shut down [20].
Unlike classical hallucinogens such as LSD, DMT, psilocybin, or mescaline, salvia has no effect on serotonin receptors (5-HT2A) [17].
However, like LSD, salvia also powerfully activates dopamine receptors (D2 in the striatum) [21].
Salvia also has indirect effects on the same receptor types that are activated by cannabis (CB1 and CB2) and may inhibit the release of serotonin and dopamine while causing the release of adrenaline (by bonding to presynaptic kappa-opioid receptors) [22, 23, 24].
Technical: Salvia divinorum is unique both among opioid-receptor activators and among hallucinogens. As an opioid receptor activator, it is the only known example that is not an alkaloid (or is non-nitrogenous). As a hallucinogen, it is the only known example that is composed of two types of molecules (or is a diterpene) [17, 25].
Salvia Divinorum Effects
Potential Positive Effects
1) May Relieve Pain and Aches
The Mazatec people have traditionally used salvia to treat headaches, joint, and arthritis-related pain [3].
The validity of this traditional practice has been confirmed by studies in mice and rats demonstrating the anti-inflammatory and painkilling properties of this plant [26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31].
Salvia can also treat nerve pain (neuropathic pain) in rats [32, 27].
However, the painkilling effects of salvia appear to be relatively short-lived [33].
Researchers are developing synthetic compounds based on the active ingredient in salvia which should work for much longer periods of time [34, 35].
2) May Decrease Inflammation and Allergies
In mice and rats, salvia reduces lung inflammation. One study found it reduced TNF-a, IL-10, and iNOS. Another found it reduced leukotrienes LTB4 and LTC4. These are involved in a number of autoimmune/inflammatory disorders including asthma, allergic rhinitis, and heart diseases. Salvia also reduced myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity [36, 37].
Salvia could also help allergies by inhibiting the ability of mast cells to produce Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13. However, researchers speculate that this inhibition could cause the number of mast cells in the lungs to increase to compensate [38].
3) May Help With IBD and Diarrhea
Salvia reduces colon inflammation (IBD) in rats and mice [39, 40].
Another rat study found that salvia slowed the movement of intestines, but it was only effective when gut inflammation was present [41].
Salvia also slowed the movement of guinea pig intestines by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine in the colon (likely by acting on kappa-opioid receptors in the intestines) [42].
In mice, salvia inhibited the contractions of the stomach and colon (by inhibiting ion transport in the epithelium) and also slowed movement of the upper digestive tract [43].
Also in mice, salvia prevented and reversed damage to the digestive tract caused by endotoxins (found in bacteria) [44].
Salvia's ability to reduce inflammation is shared with other drugs in the same class (kappa-opioid receptor activators); however, another biological system that is involved in processes such as appetite and pain (the endocannabinoid system) appears to be involved in salvia's ability to slow the movement of inflamed intestines [40].
4) May Protect The Brain Against Oxygen Deprivation
In newborn pigs in low oxygen environments, salvia widened (dilated) blood vessels in the brain (by activating the kappa-opioid receptor) [45, 46, 47].
In mice, salvia significantly reduced brain damage and death from oxygen deprivation [48, 49].
5) May Treat Depression and Anxiety
A 26-year old woman with a history of depression since childhood experienced complete relief from depressive symptoms after chewing 2 to 3 leaves of Salvia divinorum three times per week [50].
Studies in rats show that in the short term, salvia in relatively large doses caused a lack of motivation by decreasing the sense of reward [51, 52].
However, another rat study found that with smaller doses, salvia had antidepressant and anti-anxiety effects. Another study found that depression could be reversed in rats with a 3-week treatment with salvia [53, 54].
6) May Help with Drug Addiction (Or May Make It Worse)
The active ingredient in salvia (salvinorin A) decreases activity in the parts of the brain that cause drug use to be rewarding [13].
A single salvia injection reduced the desire for cocaine in rats [55].
Also when monkeys were given salvinorin A in combination with either an opioid (remifentanil) or cocaine, they developed less desire for either substance [56].
In animal studies, short-term use of kappa-opioid receptor activators reduced the desire for cocaine. However, long-term use of kappa-opioid receptor activators can also increase the desire for cocaine [57, 58, 59].
Researchers have debated a variety of speculated mechanisms to explain this. Repeated exposure to kappa-opioid receptor activators may impair the ability of dopamine receptors (DRD2) in the nucleus accumbens to reduce excess dopamine activity. Alternatively, the dysphoria caused by activating the kappa-opioid receptor could make cocaine use more enjoyable [60, 61].
These results hold true for salvia as well. While salvia reduces the reward from cocaine immediately, it also increases the reward from cocaine 24 hours later [62].
This may help explain why a significant percentage of former salvia users continue abusing cocaine, among other drugs [5].
Potential Negative Effects
1) May Cause Short-Term or Long-Term Psychosis
A 21-year-old man with no previous history of mental illness was hospitalized for severe psychosis and paranoia shortly after smoking salvia. After symptoms continued for 3 days, an antipsychotic (risperidone) helped to stabilize the man's condition. After discontinuing the antipsychotic, however, his symptoms reappeared. At a 4-month follow-up, there had been no improvement in his condition [63].
An 18-year-old female was admitted to a psychiatric emergency room and then legally committed for involuntary treatment after escalating attempts at self-harm, disorientation, and other psychotic behaviors. These symptoms appear to have been triggered by a boyfriend putting salvia into her marijuana cigarette without her awareness [64].
In another case, a 15-year-old man was admitted to psychiatric emergency services after experiencing 3 days of paranoia, déjà vu, and other psychotic symptoms after consuming salvia [65].
2) Could Cause Recurring Visual "Flashbacks"
A small percentage of users of all hallucinogenic drugs (usually the most frequent users) report experiencing constant or near-constant visual distortions similar to what they experienced during the 'trip' that continue long after having taken the drug (this is known as Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder or HPPD).
A much larger percentage of users report having experiences like these for a shorter period of time after the trip, with symptoms either happening only occasionally or eventually going away.
In one study, 60% of 2,455 participants reported having had this kind of drug-free visual experience. However, only a small number of those individuals reported finding the symptoms distressing or impairing enough to consider seeking treatment (104, or 4%). As studies in subjects who have never used other hallucinogenic drugs are extremely rare, it is uncertain whether salvia alone is capable of causing more than brief lingering visual after-effects [66].
3) May Impair Learning, Memory, and Attention
A study in 8 otherwise healthy hallucinogen-using adults found that using salvia once impaired two types of memory (recall and recognition of words), but at a 1-month follow-up, there was no evidence this effect had persisted [67].
In rats, salvia (salvinorin A) had no impact on short-term memory but did impair other forms of memory (spatial long-term, episodic, and aversive memories) [68].
Another rat study found a negative effect of salvia on attention and reaction time [69].
4) Withdrawal from Regular Use May Be Unpleasant
One woman who quit salvia after consuming it regularly for 3 to 4 months was referred to a hospital after experiencing 3 days of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and gut pain during her withdrawal. However, cases of users consuming salvia regularly enough for withdrawal to occur are extremely rare [70].
5) Could Possibly Worsen Depression
While some studies suggest that salvia could improve depression, at least one small study in rats shows that salvia use can worsen motivation. As low motivation is a key symptom of depression, this suggests that salvia could also make depression worse [51].
Researchers have speculated that salvia could worsen depression by decreasing the bioavailability of adrenaline in the brain [24].
Salvia divinorum Is Not Likely to Be Useful for Cancer
One widely misinterpreted study claimed to show that salvia is beneficial for cancer treatment. What this study actually shows is that while salvia is capable of killing cells, liver cancer (Hep G2) and colon cancer (Caco-2) cells are particularly resistant to this effect [71].
Is Likely Non-Toxic
A small study in rats failed to find evidence that salvia was toxic to any organ or organ system, even at doses much higher than any human user would ordinarily consume [72].
In a study of healthy humans, salvinorin A was administered in doses of 0.375 to 21 μg/kg with observed hallucinogenic effect, but no significant change in blood pressure or heart rate [73].
A review of the California Poison Control System found only 37 cases over a 10-year period where CPCS had been contacted over-consumption of Salvia divinorum, and only 18 cases where salvia was the only substance of concern the individual had been exposed to [74].
Is Not Addictive
Salvia does not appear to be addictive. Rat studies suggest that salvia may even have an "aversive" effect that makes frequent or long-term use especially unlikely [75].
This coincides with what is usually found in surveys: For instance, in a college sample, a majority of those who had tried the drug reported that they would not do so again [76].
However, a survey conducted online that included many experienced and ongoing hallucinogen users found that a majority "probably" or "definitely would" use salvia again. Therefore, whether a user is tempted to use salvia more than once may simply depend on whether or not they consider hallucinogenic effects enjoyable [77].
There are 3 primary methods of consuming salvia: Smoking, chewing (to absorb the active ingredient through mucous membranes in the mouth without swallowing), and brewing tea.
There are significant differences in the timing of the experience and the amount of salvia required to produce effects depending on the method chosen. The doses required for chewing or brewing tea vastly exceed doses used for smoking. The effects of chewing or brewing are milder than smoking but take longer to set in and also last much longer. The effects of smoking are significantly more intense, but set in very quickly and are over much faster [78, 79].
The standard dose recommended for chewing (in online forums) is between 8 and 28 leaves (20 to 70 g), which contains an estimated 49 to 69 mcg (micrograms) of salvinorin A.
The tea brewed by Mazatec shamans typically requires between 20 to 80 leaves (50 to 200 g) and may contain 122 to 490 mcg salvinorin A.
The estimated dose of salvinorin A from a single cigarette made of dried salvia leaf is 133 mcg [80].
Two hundred micrograms of salvinorin A has been described as the threshold dose for hallucinations after inhalation [19].
The most intense effects of salvia begin to appear with around 200 to 500 mcg of salvinorin A [81, 82].
When salvia is sold in smart shops or over the internet for purposes of smoking, it is typically sold dried and powdered with concentrated salvia extract added to the leaf, along with labels that state anywhere from "5x" to "60x" potency. While these labels are very unreliable, the most potent products were found to contain up to 521 mg salvinorin A per gram [79].
The temperature required to release the active ingredient from salvia is very high (about 238 to 244° Celsius, or 460 to 464° Fahrenheit). Thus, to achieve the most intense subjective effects of salvia, the ground leaves are sometimes smoked in a manner similar to freebase cocaine (or crack) [25, 83].
Consuming salvia by placing it under the tongue (sublingually) is typically not recommended because of the large doses required and because of the alcohol present in liquid extracts.
At least one controlled study has found that salvia is almost totally ineffective when consumed by placing it under the tongue, so it is possible that people discussing the mild effects of sublingual salvia tinctures are just experiencing a placebo effect. However, the study suggesting this included only 8 subjects [84].
Onset and Duration
When chewing salvia leaves, the effects take approximately 20 minutes to begin and usually last between 1 to 2 hours [78].
In the case of infused tea, the experience can last up to 3 hours. However, since the active ingredient in salvia is deactivated by the digestive system before reaching the bloodstream, teas usually produce far milder effects than either chewing or smoking, both of which allow the active ingredient to enter the bloodstream directly [85, 82].
When smoked, effects begin rapidly – within 30 seconds – but are usually expected to be over within about 15 minutes [79, 78].
A study of salvia trips posted to YouTube found that more intense effects (as measured by difficulty speaking) were experienced the longer the hits were held in the lungs. Also, 44% of water pipe users had unusual speech after smoking salvia, compared to only 13% of regular pipe users, indicating a more intense experience among waterpipe users [86].
User Experiences
A study of 34 salvia users found that the majority of them described salvia as either "intense" or "extremely intense" [87].
In a study of 100 YouTube videos recording smoked salvia trips, 65% of these experiences were classified as 'positive,' 23% as 'neutral' and 13% as 'negative' [88].
Users of Salvia divinorum often experience [82, 89]:
- Visions
- Revisiting places from the past, and childhood memories
- Loss of the body and/or identity
- Sensations of motion, spinning, stretching, or of being pulled or twisted by forces of some kind
- Uncontrollable hysterical laughter
- Overlapping realities; the perception that one is in several locations at once
- Communication and interaction with entities or beings
- Cartoon-like visual imagery and auditory experiences (often associated with childhood)
- Recurring content across sessions
In a small experiment conducted by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, 1 gram of chewed dried leaf was an optimal dose that made it easier for subjects to concentrate in meditation without experiencing distracting thoughts or hallucinogenic effects.
Some people experience very little or nothing [90].
There are also those who have a negative experience. Symptoms include [91, 92, 70, 93]:
- Intense anxiety, paranoia, or fear
- Confusion with a frightening sense of a "fractured reality"
- Temporary speech impairment
- Tiredness
- Heaviness of head
- Dizziness
- Physical exhaustion
- Slowed mental function
With sufficiently high doses, a salvia user may be entirely unresponsive for the duration of the 'trip,' with no awareness of their environment for the duration of the experience, and no memory of what they did or what happened to them during the experience afterward. Salvia also impairs motor coordination more as the dose is increased, which could make salvia use dangerous without someone watching, or in an environment full of sharp objects, fires, etc [67, 94].
Salvia Compared To Other Drugs
A systematic review of drug-induced sensory crossing found that where most drugs tend to cause a crossing of the experiences of sound and sight, salvia rather uniquely tends to cause a crossing of the experiences of sight and touch (visual-tactile synesthesia) [95].
Users of salvia tend to report that it is only slightly similar to cannabis or to other classical psychedelics such as LSD, psilocybin, or mescaline [67, 96, 97, 98].
In a study of 30 adult participants, half described their experiences as unique and strange, with statements like "It's a very unique psychedelic, and I've never had anything else that induces that same [or] even somewhat similar state" [99].
However, the perceived similarity of salvia to other psychedelics sometimes prompts users to increase the dosage [67].
Reported After-Effects
Users of salvia tend to report that after-effects, which are usually positive and/or mild, last up to 24 hours or more after smoking. In a study of 30 participants, 16 out of 23 who successfully followed up after 8 weeks reported that these after-effects had lasted for more than 24 hours [100].
An online survey of 500 individuals, including many experienced and ongoing hallucinogen users, asked about the after-effects from a salvia trip. It found high response rates for "increased insight" (47%), "improved mood" (45%), and "calmness" (42%). However, it also found high response rates for "weird thoughts" (36%), "things seeming unreal" (32%), and "mind racing" (23%) [77].
Legal Status
The information provided here is based on government websites and media reports. Laws are complex and constantly changing, and may also vary from one jurisdiction to another (including the county level in the United States). Please be sure to verify the current legal status of Salvia divinorum in your local area before attempting to purchase, sell, grow, or use it.
A total of 29 states and 27 countries have regulated or prohibited either sale or possession of salvia [101, 102].
As of December 2017, Salvia divinorum is legal for sale in 18 states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Idaho, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, South Carolina, Utah, Washington, and West Virginia.
It is decriminalized for personal possession but not legal for purchase or sale in Wisconsin and Tennessee, and Salvia divinorum extracts are illegal although the plant itself is legal in Rhode Island.
It is illegal in the remaining 29 states.
Salvia divinorum is legal to possess, but not to sell in Chile, Russia, Spain, and the UK. It is legal to possess or sell with a license in New Zealand. It is legal for medical purposes only in Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Denmark. Salvia is fully legal to possess or sell in France (when labeled not for human consumption), Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Netherlands, and Thailand.
Limitations and Caveats
In general, much about the impact of salvia consumption is still unknown. There are no studies on the long-term effects of repeated use of salvia on depression, memory, or learning in humans.
Studies are limited either by using animal subjects, by looking only at the short-term effects of salvia, or by observing the outcomes of only a single dose of salvia.

During the school year, many children receive meals through the School Breakfast Program (SBP) and the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). When summer begins, these children lose access to healthy meals and their nutritional needs are not met when the schools close. Over the past four years, ARCHS has participated in a national demonstration pilot program to address this issue.
Since 2012, ARCHS' partnership with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the State of Missouri has provided 14,472 area children in the Saint Louis Public Schools District access to a food benefits program during the summer, while making a $1.96 million impact on the local economy, through Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer for Children (SEBTC). On average, families participating in the ARCHS' program used 92% of the food benefits funding available to them in order to provide healthy meals for their children.
This summer, ARCHS' SEBTC pilot program will assist more than 9,000 area students through an existing partnership with the Saint Louis Public Schools and a new partnership with the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis to serve children living in Ferguson.
SEBTC is a benefit designated for children who attend pre-k through 12th grade and also receive free or reduced-price school meals in the SBP/NSLP during the school year. The households chosen through ARCHS' pilot program receive extra funding per month per child for the summer months and prorated amounts for the partial months when school ends in the spring and resumes at the end of summer.
Lessons learned from Missouri's SEBTC pilot program continue to inform decisions at the federal level about how to best address childhood hunger during the summer months when school meals are not available. In January 2016,President Obama announced that his FY2017 budget will invest $12 billion over ten years to reduce child hunger during the summer through a permanent SEBTC program to provide supplemental food benefits during the summer months for all families with children eligible for free and reduced price school meals.
During the academic year, school meals help ensure consistent and adequate access to nutritious food for the nearly 22 million low-income children who receive free and reduced price school meals. However, only a fraction of these children receive free and reduced price meals when school is out of session.
As a result, low-income children are at higher risk of food insecurity and poor nutrition during the summer. SEBTC, which provides benefits on an electronic debit card that can be used for food benefits, fills the food budget gap in the summer. Rigorous evaluations of USDA pilots of SEBTC programs have found that they can significantly reducefood insecurity among children and improve their nutrition.
In January 2016, representatives from ARCHS participated in A White House Conversation on Child Hunger in America and provided an updated on Missouri's successful SEBTC pilot program.
The Missouri SEBTC pilot program is a collaboration of the USDA, State of Missouri (Missouri Departments of Elementary and Secondary Education; Health and Senior Services; Social Services), ARCHS, Local Investment Commission (LINC), Mississippi County Partnership, Shannon County, the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis, and designated school districts.
The SEBTC pilot program is not open to the general public. However, there are many summer meals resources available to St. Louis area families.

The highly anticipated Alteryx Community tradition is back! We hope you'll join us!
I have a .yxdb file that includes a large number of polygons each with a name and a projection field. I want to create a separate Shapefile output for each polygon. That's the easy part. I need to set the UTM Zone projection for each polygon in the output file. I am having trouble figuring out a solution to setting the output file projection based on the required projection. Each polygon will require a different projection that is defined in the field. Is there a way to set the projection based on a field showing the projection? I'm open to alternatives to having the projection in a field as well. Thanks!
Hi @nextelspe
I think the best way to accomplish this would be through using a batch macro and using a control parameter to update the projection for the shapefile. Here's the documentation for batch macros to help you design your own: https://help.alteryx.com/2018.2/BatchMacro.htm
Attached is an example macro I put together with some sample data.

These great tasting Quick Easy Oatmeal Pancakes are just perfect for the weekend -especially since spring has sprung and it's time for sugaring off! The pancake-making bug is in the air, time to make Oatmeal Pancakes.
"Mardi Gras", or Fat Tuesday, is also known as Pancake Day. It's also the day before Lent. Traditionally, Lent, which lasts for 40 days, was a period where you were forbidden to consume rich foods. So, on the day before Lent began, people would consume their eggs, butter, milk and sugar. How? By making pancakes!
Maybe no one made this particular recipe back then – it is perhaps a little too healthy to serve their purpose – but the pancake-making bug is certainly in the air, so I thought I'd share anyway.
I'm also making pancakes, well, because I just love pancakes. Pancakes = lazy mornings = comfort food = happy, happy, happy. I love to top my pancakes with lots of fruit, a thick lemon yogurt and, of course, a drizzle of great Quebec maple syrup.
Theses oatmeal pancakes are also great when served with these Baked Beans.
Planning to have your very own sugaring off party… why not include these maple syrup poached eggs?
Origins of the recipe for Quick Easy Oatmeal Pancakes:
I found the recipe for these quick easy oatmeal pancakes in my soon to be vintage recipe booklets from Robin Hood, which date back to 1990. Over the years, I've modified the recipe to make it a little bit healthier by increasing the fiber content and decreasing the salt. I also substituted the regular milk with buttermilk, just because buttermilk makes everything better.
A fair warning for pancake making: just like with muffins, pancakes require you to incorporate your liquids to the dry components. But, just like with muffins, you should definitely not over mix the batter. The only thing you need to do is gently combine – that's it.
Another thing that often trips people up is when to flip the pancakes.
As you can see, there are tiny air bubbles escaping to the surface. Once you start seeing these, it's time to flip the pancakes. Pancakes should only be flipped once…or at least that's what I've always been told.
Unlike the recipe for buttermilk pancakes, which are light and fluffy, this recipe for quick and easy oatmeal pancakes has that oat-mealy texture, which I really enjoy.
Isn't it wonderful to have choices? Regardless of the type of pancakes you're having for Mardi Gras, I hope you enjoy them!
Quick Easy Oatmeal Pancakes
- 1½ cups quick cooking oats
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1/2 cup flour whole wheat
- 1/2 cup flour all-purpose
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon wheatgerm and/or ground flaxseed or ground flaxseed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine oats and buttermilk. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Whisk in the brown sugar. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together eggs, oil and vanilla.
- Combine the egg mixture to the oat mixture. Mix well.
- Add this wet mixture all at once to the dry ingredients. Stir together just until combined. It's okay if batter is still a little lumpy.
- Over a medium/high heat,place a large non-stick pan.
- Pour about 1/4 - 1/3 cup for each pancake (I use a large serving spoon).
- Cook 2-3 minutes until bubbles start to form on tops.
- Flip and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Place on a rimmed baking sheet and transfer to oven to keep warm. (set oven to 250℉/120℃)
- Serve with your favourite toppings.
Thanks for dropping by.
Ciao for now!
