Licorice & Cortisol
Licorice is an ancient extract that is used extensively in a variety of industries. It is commonly studied in the medical field because it naturally contains a substance that affects many biological pathways in the human body. In particular, natural licorice heavily impacts cortisol, commonly known as the stress hormone. Its influence on cortisol may change how you feel about this popular candy and flavor additive.
If you are experiencing serious medical symptoms, seek emergency treatment immediately.
About Cortisol
Cortisol is a steroid hormone excreted by the adrenal glands, which are at the top of each kidney. It serves a variety of functions and is essential to optimal health. Most commonly, cortisol is recognized for its role in stress responses and the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Increases in the secretion of cortisol during periods of prolonged stress often result in stalled weight loss and excess fat storage around the abdomen. In some cases, secretion can be extremely high or extremely low. These conditions are often associated with disease states such as hypopituitarism, Addison's disease, Cushing's syndrome or adrenal tumors.
About Licorice
Licorice is an age-old extract from the roots of a five-foot shrub known as Glycyrrhiza glabra, commonly found growing in Europe, the Middle East and Western Asia. Licorice has a multitude of uses in the food, tobacco and medicinal industries. Natural licorice contains glycyrrhizic acid, or GZA, which is known to have dangerous side effects when consumed on a regular to frequent basis. In the United States, however; a majority of food items flavored by or containing licorice do not contain GZA, eliminating the associated health risks.
How Licorice Affects Cortisol
Although licorice produced or sold in the United States does not contain GZA, it is important to be aware of how some licorice supplements or licorice obtained from foreign travels can affect your health. The GZA substance found in natural licorice enhances cortisol production and action. GZA deactivates enzymes that keep cortisol levels balanced, causing a cascade of reactions that disrupt your body's delicate balance of essential ions. Sodium retention substantially increases, while potassium and hydrogen ions are excreted in excess. The results are significant spikes in blood pressure, muscle spasms and a disturbance of the acid-base balance in the body's tissues. Discontinuing consumption of licorice and GZA will reverse these symptoms.
Treating Disease
Frequent consumption of licorice may be hazardous to healthy individuals, but for patients suffering from Addison's disease, it is just what the doctor ordered. Addison's disease is a rare, and sometimes fatal, condition symptomatic of impaired cortisol production. In a 2007 report in the "Annals of Clinical Biochemistry," a woman unknowingly stricken with Addison's disease staved off its fatal effects with a steady "diet of licorice sticks and soy sauce." Modern medicine has replaced this "creative" method of self-treatment through the use of synthetic compounds that essentially mimic licorice's natural effects on the adrenal system 3.

The Self-Regulating Bioartificial Kidney, Part 1: Anatomy of the Device
With the growth of donor chains and other transplant opportunities, more patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) are receiving transplants, experiencing new ways to live with their kidney failure and achieving better outcomes. In the future—thanks to a convergence of key breakthrough technologies and the research and work of, most notably, nephrologists William Fissell, MD, and David Humes, MD, and bioengineer and UCSF pharmacy professor Shuvo Roy, PhD—patients may gain even further access to kidney transplants through bioartificial kidneys.
The Kidney Project
Dr. Fissell, Dr. Humes and, later, Dr. Roy began work on a bioartificial kidney in the late 90s and early 2000s. The project languished for a period of time and was resurrected with such great energy in 2007 that in 2015 Fissell and Roy officially launched The Kidney Project. Its goal was "to create a small, surgically implanted and free-standing bioartificial kidney to treat ESRD."
Although the Kidney Project and its technology are still at an early stage of development, the bioartificial kidney has recently been moving through porcine trials. It is possible that human trials could start in the near future, potentially leading to next steps and, ultimately, FDA approval. The timeframe for this is dependent on a number of events but, if all goes well, approval could occur within the early part of the next decade.
To continue reading, check out the DaVita Medical Insights blog for the rest of Dr. Bryan Becker's take on the fascinating future of kidney care.

We are part of Wygoda Travel and together we create an exceptional incoming department group. Here you can read something more about us.
I have always been involved in the tourism industry as I have graduated from the International Relations with a Bachelor's degree in International Tourism then I continued studying and I ended up finishing my Master's in Business Management. A day after I have graduated from my Master's degree, I took a chance and flew to Australia where I lived in Melbourne for a year and then travelled up the East Coast for another 2 months. I have visited countries in Asia where my favourite one was Singapore. What's more, I have been working for 6 years in hostel/hotel industry in Poland, Australia and Ireland, where I also lived for a bit. I speak English, Polish and a bit of German.
My passion besides travelling is make-up. I would love to gain more experience in that area, however, for now I like doing it during my free time for my friends and family.
I like trying new things that I am scared of. So bungee jump was one of my fears that I have overcome! Now it is time for… a skydive!
I am a positive person so I always want to do things in my life that make me happy. And what I love the most ? Travelling and getting to know other cultures. So all my life choices were pretty simple. I've graduated University in Tourism and Recreation and as soon as I passed my last exam, I took a flight to USA without knowing any locals there. It was honestly the best time and decision in my entire life so far. I have totally fallen in love in this country. After I came back to Poland, I started American Studies. It was an opportunity for me to know even more about Americans, their traditions and their lifestyle. If I have a chance, I try to do everything to be able to come back to the USA (even for a short visit or so). I have already visited America 3 times, so in total, I have spent 11 months there and it is still not enough for me.
I have also spent some time in Dubai and Tel Aviv to expand my knowledge about Muslim and Jewish culture. The next destination for me to visit is Vietnam. I have heard a lot about the country and I wouldn't mind to see it through my eyes.
Organising school, tourist and business trips is almost as fascinating as travelling. I love to visit other countries but my heart still belongs to Poland. This is why I want foreigners to see the beauty of my homeland.
Since the very beginning of Wygoda Travel Group I have been involved in creating this company that now has been established on the Polish market for 18 years. I am the member of the Executive Board and the Office Manager. I have always been connected to tourism industry. I gained my experience in UK (Cheateau Impney) and Ireland (Sheen Falls) then for a few years I have worked as Rep in Greece. I have graduated from Hotel Management College and Cracow's Tourism Academy.
In addition to this, I am a happy father of two lovely kids and I am a big fan of Irish Whiskey.

She is inspired by Carole King, wrote songs for the Backstreet Boys and Disney star Demi Lovato, but this blonde brand new mother of an 8-month-old says her pop music goes beyond bubble gum fun.
"The best part about doing music is that music has the ability to affect other people so greatly," said Kari Kimmel. "I love it when people can relate to my songs because it means that I did my job in conveying a feeling or an emotion in a way that touches people."
Inspired to do music before she could even talk, Kimmel left South Florida and now has made Los Angeles home for the last five years.
"Music was the one thing that could always make me happy and I come from a pretty musical family as well, so it's always been inside me," said Kimmel.
Her new album "Out of Focus" was released in early 2010. It's a collection of epic and soaring melodies that takes you through the extreme highs and lows of experiencing love, the tragedy of losing that love and the incredible gift of finding it again.
"Most of them are very uplifting," said Kimmel while talking to NewsRaw's Mekahlo Medina. "The goal is to make people feel things, and help people relate to what I'm singing."
Kimmel is doing that not only in music but on TV and film. She has had songs featured in over 100 movie and television shows.
If you want to feel what Kimmel is belting out, you got a chance Friday, Aug. 6 at the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood. She'll be performing songs from her new album at 10:30 p.m., and hoping you'll feel and listen at the same time. Tickets are $10.

Using the new U Point Technology for Image Correction - Building a better landscape, by brightening the shadows, adding more blue to the sky and making the grass a bit greener
Now I am starting to get exited by Nikon Capture NX, I mean most of us know that when it comes to NEF (Nikon RAW) files you get the best results when you process them through Nikon Capture before going to Photoshop but this is a whole new ball game. The U Point technology is really fun to play with. I have not gotten the best results possible from the image below yet, but I think you can see what is possible from the few changes I have made.
The ability to manipulate areas in an imaged in this manner really reminds me of my old darkroom days when I was dodging and burning areas on Cibachrome prints with my hands (think of shadow puppets), pieces of cardboard and a dychroic color filter enlarger. I usually worked with a variety of large and small Omega enlargers but the professional level Durst color enlargers (Labrator I think) were my favorite (just too expensive for me to ever own one). The U Point Technology is of course much more accurate right out of the box, than I ever was with a color enlarger and all my cleverly devised dodging and burning tools.
Default image - Quoddy West Lighthouse - Nikon D200
Shadows brightened - (five color control point areas) front left hand side wall of building, access ramp, left hand side of lighthouse, left hand side of top of lighthouse, and the deep shadow to the left of the lighthouse and lighthouse keeper's building.
One Color Control Point for the sky - a minus setting on Brightness and an increased setting in Saturation makes for a deep blue sky. Who needs expensive and difficult to keep clean polarizers when you have this tool available? (Just joking of course, there will always be a need for actual physical filters. Not as big of a need as before but there will still be a need.)
This one is a little peculiar but I could not resist trying it. In the middle of summer there is a nice green lawn around this lighthouse but for the rest of the year Maine is pretty cold and well as some of the locals say it "Maine has two seasons, there is the 4th of July and then there is winter".
I will have to play with this some more and see if I can come up with a realistic green lawn, but for now I just want to share one small U Point trick. I set the Color Control Point on the lawn to the left and adjusted it to my liking, then I copied that Color Control Point, pasted it back into the picture, and moved it to the lawn on the right (the second identical Color Control Point then automatically adjusted the color of the right hand lawn).
New U Point™ technology
• U Point™ technology is revolutionary in how it uses Control Points to help realize results envisioned in the editing process. Using NEF files for optimal performance, Control Points allow photographers to select and isolate an entire image or selected areas within the image for enhancement, without the complications required by other photo editing software. Enhancements can be instantly cancelled or added with ease, without compromising the original quality of the image, and U Point control is perfectly compatible with each NEF file's Instruction Set.
Saturation Control Point in use, notice +24 to the left of the Saturation (S) slider and in the Color Control Point dialog box next to Saturation as 24%.
• With Color Control Points, a photographer can adjust any of up to nine different sliders for each respective area selected. In the default setting, four sliders are available to adjust size, brightness, contrast and hue, respectively. Additional settings are available by accessing each Control Point's Settings box.
• Other Control Points include Black and White points, both of which are convenient for setting dynamic range, Neutral Control Point to correct color casts in images even without a gray tone, and Red-Eye Reduction Control Point.

Ten Tips for PhD Students: Part One
Posted on in Uncategorized
As with any new venture, studying for a PhD would be a little easier with the gift of hindsight. While it is not the same as personal experience, some of the difficulties can nevertheless be smoothed over by advice from others who have been through the process. In this article, and in a subsequent one, I will put forth ten tips that should help you succeed in your endeavour.
- Expect a very steep learning curve, especially if you are taking a PhD without first studying at Masters level. It is a big jump from undergraduate to PhD level.
- Start writing from day one. Like many activities, writing gets easier the more you do it. If you start writing immediately, and write daily, you will quickly get into the habit. It will also help you work through your thoughts and build up a bank of useful material.
- Organise your time and set deadlines. It is easier to focus your efforts if you work to deadlines. It is always frightening how time just seems to slip away if you are not careful.
- Keep scrupulous notes. You will be doing a lot of reading as part of your research, which makes it easy for your notes to get muddled unless you take a disciplined and systematic approach. Clearly indicate the full details of the source, whether the note is a quote or paraphrase, and the page number it is taken from. Incomplete notes increase the risk of plagiarism, incorrect citation, and other errors.
- Make multiple back ups. Computer failure or other disasters are not acceptable excuses for lost work so make sure you get into the habit of backing up all of your work. In case of fire or any other disaster, do not store your back up copies in the same location as your primary copy.

For most of us, Easter is the first opportunity in the year to take some time away from our busy professional lives and enjoy a few days off relaxing with family and friends. It is also a tremendous time of year for getting outdoors and spending some quality time in the breath-taking Cotswolds. Every Holidays in the Cotswolds holiday cottage is surrounded by countryside to die for, so there is plenty of choice!
The arrival of spring is particularly stunning across the rolling hills and gentle meadows of the Cotswolds - a time when woodlands turn blue with swathes of bluebells and the scent of wild garlic fills the air. And what chocolate-box village or medieval church doesn't look better when the sun is on its back?
But nature's abundant glories aside, what else is going on in the Cotswolds this Easter? Here are a few recommendations from the local experts in the Holidays in the Cotswolds' team.
It wouldn't be Easter without a cracking Easter Egg Hunt, and the Easter Bunny will be hopping across the Cotswolds leaving a host of enticing trails for kids of all ages.
Head to the magnificent Gloucester Cathedral from Saturday 31 March to Sunday 15 April and embark on an intriguing hunt, with the chance for little ones to spot the hidden eggs and claim their yummy treat.
For something completely different, forget chickens, ducks and bunnies and head for Berkeley Castle which will be full of dragons, with an Easter Dragon Hunt taking place from Friday 30 March to Sunday 15 April. Meanwhile at Roves Farm in Sevenhampton, the mischievous Easter Bunny will be back up to his old tricks, including leading the tractor rides.
Cotswold Wildlife Park's 'Easter Eggs-travaganza' features egg trails and falconry flying displays, from Monday 2 April to Friday 13 April. We all love a tasty chocolate egg at Easter, but for the animals at Cotswold Wildlife Park it's not quite as simple as that. Fortunately, the keepers at the park know eggs-actly (sorry) what their furry residents want! Join them to see animals like the Meerkats sniff out some special treats.
There is also plenty of family fun to be had over Easter at Blenheim Palace, with an abundance of family themed activities in the Pleasure Gardens including the first ever Giant Egg Hunt Challenge. There will also be new circus workshops in the Big Top, balloon modelling, stilt walkers, walkabout clown and much, much more.
For those of you who prefer galloping horses to hopping bunnies, make a date for Easter Monday at the North Cotswold Hunt Point to Point Race at Paxford. It might not be as grand as the Cheltenham Festival, but it provides an excellent day's entertainment for the whole family, with good views of the race course, betting facilities, picnic spaces, hound displays, trade stands, bars, food stalls, hospitality and children's amusements.
Finally, one for the grown-ups to enjoy on their own. The Cheltenham Wine Festival is being held on Saturday 7 April at the enchanting Pittville Pump Room. Taste and learn about different wine styles, grape varieties and the people and special places behind them. Discover exciting new wines from France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Chile, USA and more. And not an Easter egg in sight!
For more exciting events in the Cotswolds, keep checking back into the Holidays in the Cotswolds website. Our welcoming Cotswolds cottages for Easter offer the perfect place to rest your head after all these fun Easter activities, why not have a browse of our collection?

INNISFIL, ON – Earlier this off-season, veteran Dan Archibald announced that his team would chase the inaugural OSCAAR Hot Rod Series championship in 2018. This week, Archibald doubled-down on his team's plans, confirming that they would also compete fulltime in Sunset Speedway's Super Stock division.
"I think there might be a few guys on that [Super Stock] roster that thought we were gone forever," laughs Archibald. "They might be pretty disappointed to see us back on opening night. But, we're coming back and we're going to be there as much as we can. We're going to win some races at Sunset this season."
Archibald took a hiatus from weekly Sunset Speedway competition for much of the 2017 campaign, opting instead to chase points in Peterborough Speedway's talent-rich Thunder Car division. Now – after almost an entire year away – Archibald is reinvigorated for his return.
"Our Sunset [Speedway] package is as good now as it's ever been," notes the Innisfil, ON racer. "Stepping away from [Sunset] last season made us a better team. We're stronger now than we were when we left. So, we're coming back to chase some wins."
Archibald acquired a car formerly campaigned by division standout Johnny Morrison for his fulltime Sunset Speedway return and has plans to push for a first career Super Stock championship in addition to his Hot Rod Series commitments.
"We have a really, really good car for this season," says Archibald. "I think our setup package with this new equipment is going to be something for these other guys to worry about."
"If the schedule works out the way we hope it will – we'll be able to balance the [OSCAAR] Hot Rod deal with the [Sunset Speedway] Super Stock division. I want to chase two championships – because I know I have the team that can do it."

|Falmouth's inner harbour, with the Maritime Museum in the background
Thursday, 2 August 2018
First Announcement: Biomining '20 and Sustainable Minerals '20
In announcing these two forthcoming conferences, allow me to explain the change of name of the Biohydrometallurgy conference series to Biomining. This is to highlight the increasingly important role of biotechnology, not only in the treatment of primary ores and concentrates, but in the quest for the circular economy. Biotechnology is likely to have a major role in remediation, treatment of tailings, electronic and other wastes, and as a potential aid to processes such as flotation.
In this respect Biomining is intimately linked to the Sustainable Minerals series, which was very evident last month in Namibia, where over 60% of the Biohydromet '18 delegates also attended Sustainable Minerals '18.
Biomining '20 and Sustainable Minerals '20 will run back to back in June 2020 in the beautiful Cornish town of Falmouth. The venue will be the National Maritime Museum, in the heart of old Falmouth, overlooking the world's 3rd largest natural harbour. As in Namibia, there will be a single conference dinner (venue to be announced) to bring delegates from both conferences together.
We invite your active participation in these two important events. If you would like to present papers, short abstracts should be submitted by the end of January, 2020. Drafts of accepted papers will be available at the meetings on Proceedings USBs, and after the conferences authors will be invited to submit final papers for peer-review, for possible publication in Minerals Engineering, all accepted papers being collated into virtual special issues.
Cornwall is one of the world's most beautiful areas, but as well as stunning coastal scenery it also has a rich mining heritage, so we always advise delegates to stay on for a few days to explore this unique and remote part of England. The Cornwall section of the blog might whet your appetite!
As the conferences evolve, updates on Biomining '20 will be posted at #Biomining20, and Sustainable Minerals '20 at #SustainableMinerals20.

With the exceptional sales of Hybrid vehicles announced by Toyota earlier this year (a 140 per cent increase in 2016 and Hybrid now accounting for 13 per cent of Toyota total sales), it comes as no surprise to see the huge levels of customer satisfaction confirmed in a recent survey undertaken by Toyota Ireland.
In a survey carried out online among 350 Toyota Hybrid drivers, a phenomenal 97 per cent stated they would choose Hybrid again for their next vehicle. 70 per cent of those surveyed would not consider driving a pure electric vehicle while 30 per cent may consider it.
Many reasons were given for not choosing a pure electric vehicle including the inconvenience of having to charge it for long periods of time (44 per cent), the limited range available with electric vehicles (41 per cent), meaning that it often can't be used for long journeys without stopping to charge, and lastly, a lack of understanding of the technology in an electric vehicle (16 per cent).
Respondents were asked whether, if necessary, they would change from a Hybrid vehicle to a diesel engine, a plug in Hybrid or a pure electric vehicle? The results remained in favour of Hybrid with 54 per cent choosing a plug in version, 28 per cent choosing a diesel engine and just 19 per cent opting for a pure electric vehicle.
Commenting on the results, Michael Gaynor, Marketing Director said, "There is a misconception that hybrid drivers will automatically switch to electric vehicles, however, this research clearly shows that hybrid drivers recognise the benefits of low emissions driving that a Hybrid vehicle provides (as was demonstrated in a recent study by the University of Rome) without the inconvenience of driving an electric vehicle.
"Until EVs can travel much greater distances without having to re-charge for long periods of time, they will have limited appeal within the Irish market, especially in rural Ireland. We are not surprised by the results of the findings as we know that our customers love their hybrid vehicles."

Governor Blagojevich and Illinois Department of Agriculture Director Chuck Hartke has announced the state is developing new, cutting edge technology to help emergency officials respond more quickly and effectively in the event of an agroterrorist attack.
After securing a Federal Homeland Security grant through the Illinois Terrorism Task Force Homeland Security program, the state is taking initial steps to develop a computer-tracking program that features GIS technology to collect and share information on all livestock and other agriculture resources. The announcement follows the success of a pilot program the Governor launched in 2003 that used GIS technology to plot agricultural assets and livestock.
The GIS project will be developed in two phases. Phase one will collect information and develop a GIS strategic plan for the Illinois Department of Agriculture (IDOA) that will focus on animal health. Phase two will develop the software technology to track animals and other agricultural assets to better prepare, prevent or respond to an agricultural emergency.
The 2003 pilot project, launched in Clinton County, used sophisticated GIS technology to plot agricultural assets, such as livestock, grain elevators, food processing facilities and companies that special in transporting agricultural produce. The coordination of information through this system demonstrated to IDOA emergency staff that a coordinated and swift response can be the difference between containment of a disease to a single farm and widespread infection that causes the death of many livestock and millions of dollars in lost income.
The new GIS program being developed will also track agricultural interests, as well as enable IDOA to share information with other agencies and ensure a coordinated response to emergencies on several levels. GIS Solutions, a Springfield-based company, will develop the new system. The project will be paid for through a $165,000 Federal Homeland Security grant.

Portnoy?s Complaint By Philip Roth Essay, Research Paper
Portnoy?s Complaint was Philip Roth?s third novel. It was a story about a young man?s search for freedom using forbidden sex as his way of escape. This book was found by many readers to be offensive and pornographic because of its protagonist?s use of obscene language and sex scenes. The story records the intimate confessions of Alexander Portnoy to his psychiatrist. Portnoy goes through his adolescent obsession with masturbation and his relationship with his over possessive mother, Sophie. Portnoy?s ?complaint? refers to the damage done to him by the culture that has shaped him; although he is successful, his achievements are marred by a nagging sense of guilt. He finds himself on Dr. Speilvogel?s couch trying to determine how and why he has become a sexual and moral obsessive in the hopes of being cured, or at least a little less obsessed with various bodily liquids and all orifices. Instead, Portnoy?s narrative of his past becomes the case history that serves as the evidential basis of a medical diagnosis. Speilvogel discovers Portnoy?s Complaint, and by doing so, he has thereby authoritatively reduced Portnoy?s experiences into a category of neurosis. Speilvogel simply rewrites Portnoy?s wild, comic rantings into a ?disorder in which strongly-felt ethical and altruistic impulses are perpetually warring with extreme sexual longings, often of perverse nature. Portnoy?s approach to experience is often ironic and has the effect of a stand-up comedian?s patter. Jewish family and its values are held up to ridicule, and particular criticism has been leveled to Roth?s presentation of the Jewish mother.
Roth?s novel, Portnoy?s Complaint, is the story of Alex Portnoy, a Jewish male with an oppressive, ?castrating? mother. As a boy, young Alex Portnoy nearly suffocates
from parental expectations that he be the smartest, neatest, and best-behaved little boy in his school. His melodramatic mother, aspiring to impress gentile America with her perfect offspring, over-supervises him and turns minor infractions into operatic disappointments. At times, for frustrating her, he is locked out of his home. Portnoy, in his adolescence, rebels against her mostly by indulging in acts of which she does not approve. Obscenity and masturbation become the primary ways in which Portnoy asserts his freedom.
As he grows older, these forms of rebellion persist. Often his transgressions turn to guilt: ?Why must the least deviation from respectable convention cause me such inner hell?? When I know better than the taboos!? (Roth, 124). Most of the times, however, he seems to find it is surprisingly easy to transgress; the only obstacle to freedom is his hesitation. After being treated to his first lobster dinner by his sister?s boyfriend, Portnoy is tempted to masturbate on the darkened bus back to New Jersey with a gentile girl sitting beside him. The adult Portnoy, on second thoughts, speculates that being encouraged to violate the Jewish dietary code also prompted him to take a sexual risk: ? The taboo so easily and simply broken, confidence may have been given to the whole slimy suicidal Dionysian side of my nature; the lesson may have been learned that to break the law, all you have to do is- just go ahead and break it!? Stop trembling and quaking and finding it unimaginable and beyond you: all you have to do is do it!? (Roth, 79).
Not wanting to feel ?obedient and helpless? (Roth, 73) also impels Portnoy to challenge the mainstream culture. And here as well, his rebellion manifests itself
sexually and revolves around his exclusive interest in Christian girls. If sex is exciting for Portnoy when it is secretive and ?bad?- the antithesis of the moral goodness imbued in Alex by his parents- sex with a ?shikse?, is twice as arousing. It violates not only the Jewish community?s expectations that he marry a Jew, but it also imposes his dirty will on the clean blond daughters of the gentile middle class; it asserts his arrival in the mainstream and his full entitlement as a male American. ?I don?t seem to stick my dick up these girls, as much as I stick it up their backgrounds- as though through fucking I will discover America. Conquer America- maybe that?s more like it? (Roth, 235).
His speech is littered with obscenity and sexist language, and his relationships with women are self-serving. Women are merely objects through whom he might vent his anger and, as Irving Buchanan contends, ?his sexuality is?masturbatory sexuality employed to degrade, to revenge and to heap contempt on?women? (103). Portnoy?s impulse to degrade women is inextricably linked to his use of language. His obscenity reveals his sexual immaturity, and diminishes both the sex act it describes and the women he encounters. Indeed Portnoy?s reliance on ?foul? language is meant to suggest a linguistic inadequacy that parallels his sexual inadequacy. As Robert Forray observes, the frustration born from Portnoy?s ?five-hundred word New Jersey vocabulary? is linked inextricably to the lack of sexual fulfillment that degenerates ultimately into impotence (276).
For all his shortcomings, Portnoy is an engaging figure in some respects. His narrative is amusing and the other characters in the novel seem extremely bland by comparison. As the book progresses, however, a more sinister dimension to Portnoy is
revealed. For instance, his attempt near the end to force himself on the young Jewish woman, Naomi, is extreme and unsettling. As several critics have noted, his narrative complaint becomes progressively less witty, and increasingly hysterical and spiteful. Portnoy?s both social and verbal inadequacy is shown most powerfully at the close of the book with him, unreformed and impotent, shouting ?Up societies ass? (Roth, 274). Finally, he abandons coherent language altogether, terminating his narrative with a howl. Despite his superficial attractions, then, we are meant to see Portnoy, and his obscenity and sexual aggression, as distasteful and self-defeating. Portnoy, as Marya Mannes suggests, is an ?antihero? (39); he is offered as an indictment of the self-obsessed male whose immaturity precludes meaningful relationships with women. Ultimately, Portnoy is posited as the moral and emotional inferior to the females he meets. A dependency on obscenity is a compensation for the fact that Portnoy?s relationships are empty and meaningless. Sex has become an obscenity because it is divorced from any kind of valid emotional life. Roth shows how ?foul? language becomes a kind of rhetoric compensation that struggles to fill the void at the heart of their character?s lives. These stories are about the way people use language to conceal or deny the truth about themselves. Roth creates stories that are critical of their male protagonists and that offer implicit indictments of their language. They demonstrate, in other words, how men can be ?unmanned?- rendered socially dysfunctional males- by their own sexist speech.
Gender politics is a crucial issue in contemporary American Jewish literature. One of the things that separate writers like Philip Roth from earlier American Jewish writers is the growing pressure to renegotiate relations between the sexes. A historical
opposition between feminism and Judaism presents Roth with problems insofar as he wants to be both Jewish and a contemporary American. Roth?s bad boy reputation with feminists is legendary. He wishes that feminist critics would discover that he dramatizes men?s frailties rather than arguing for their superiority. He intends to show that men are ? clay with aspirations? (Jones, Paterson, and Nance, 7). Gender is clearly one of the issues about which Roth has found the best literary technique to put him on the side of liberation. When one looks at Roth?s entire career, one discovers what looks like an increasing intention to open up the works to the voices of women; he is trying to use not just themes but also forms compatible with feminism. Roth uses anti-feminism to launch an attack on Judaism.
Finally, there is the transgressive quality of Portnoy?s expressing his inner life in a long ?complaint? or psychoanalytic confession, which inadvertently (or deliberately) wounds an offends readers who, like the author?s parents, also over-supervise their children. Roth?s selection of the first-person confessional monologue as the narrative form and viewpoint dramatizes his intention to unburden his psyche, despite the pain he?ll cause to his family and the delight he?ll provide to others- like himself- who are liberated, freewheeling, and at odds with their religious and ethnic backgrounds. The monologue also persistently generates an awareness of the performative transgressions on the author?s part, violating the limits of decorum for serious literature. Roth repeatedly amazes, delights, and shocks. At the peak of his masturbatory mischief, Portnoy tells us he has made use of a piece of liver before his mother prepared it. (?So. Now you know the worst thing I have ever done. I fucked my own families dinner? (Roth, 134).) In
Portnoy?s stream of associations about his rabbi and his bar mitzvah, Roth goes from ridiculing the pretentious enunciation of rabbis, Jewish racism, and prejudice against ?goyim? to turning directly on his own people: ?Weep?; he says, ?for your own pathetic selves? sucking and sucking on the sour grape of a religion! Jew Jew Jew Jew Jew Jew Jew! It is coming out of my ears already, the saga of the suffering Jews! Do me a favor, my people, and stick your suffering heritage up your suffering ass- I happen also to be a human being!? (Roth, 76). The factor that seems to determine whether he gives offense, especially to other Jews, is whether the reader can sympathize with satire or criticism of his or her own tribe, or whether the reader is automatically offended. As the last quoted passage implies, nothing is sacred to Roth.

Portnoy?s Dilemma
In my paper, I will be writing about why Portnoy acts the way he does. I will show examples and use quotes from the novel as well as other researched sources. I will show how Portnoy acts when he is a child like how he goes behind his mother?s back and purposely does things that she would never approve of. Or when he is in adolescence and after a lobster dinner jerks off on a bus back to New Jersey. I will explain the reason why he chooses to be with the Christian girls. Also, when he is an adult and becomes impotent. Then I will explain what Portnoy?s complaint actually is and of course which is brought about by his entire life. Lastly, I will describe the way that Roth perceives men and how he attempts to unman them as to not make the women inferior. The unmanning deals largely with the fact that Portnoy uses an excess of foul language. So basically, I will be explaining in full detail what Portnoy?s complaint is and how it came about focusing on specific periods of his life.

We all know how frustrating the process can be to book an airline ticket. Especially, if you are looking for a ticket at the last minute. The thing that you need to know is that there is a much better approach to purchasing airline tickets. You just need to know these secrets. Secrets that not many people will tell you.
Yes, it is easier and faster to contact a travel agency and ask them for a cheap flight to your destination. And, yes, they might find a couple of options for you. But, did you know that you are actually paying them for doing this for you? Making your flight ticket more expensive?
This is the good thing about our technology. You can now go online and find the best airline ticket for yourself. A much better approach than contacting an agency where you are going to them for something that you could have done yourself.
We tend to make a booking for our flight at an airline that we know, and that is popular. However, did you know that the popular airline might be a lot more expensive than some of the other airlines? There are websites available where you can search for different airlines and different prices simultaneously. Meaning that in no time, you will be able to find the airline that is going to give you the best deal.
The less popular airlines aren't less safe to use. They aren't just as popular as other airlines, because they might be a new airline.
We know that this might not always be possible, but if this is possible, you should make your bookings early. The earlier you are making your bookings, the better prices you are going to get. And, you will have the time to look for better deals online.
It is recommended that you are buying your airline ticket between 4 to 6 weeks before your flight time. This is the best time to find the cheap flights. Click here for more information.
Most of the cheaper airlines don't provide free food and drinks. Meaning that you should purchase it separately when you are flying. This can make costs a lot more than with the other airlines where you are getting free food and drinks during the flight. So, when you are doing research about your airline ticket, you should make sure that you are considering if you are going to spend money on food and drinks extra.
The moment that you are changing your approach about purchasing your flight ticket, you will see that it is much easier to find a great deal. We don't really consider our options and making bookings at the first and best place you can find. When you change your approach, you will find a flight that is going to be much better. It might be cheaper, and you might even get some snacks and drinks on your cheap flight.

Many people decide begin downsizing to a smaller home or even an apartment at some point in their life. This decision can be made for many reasons, such as: retirement, kids moving out, job change, divorce, marriage, medical reasons, age, and more. However, you have to think about all your extra stuff that is not going to fit into your new smaller home. That can be stressful and difficult. But, that is where self storage can become a great benefit.
Instead of taking the time now to decide on what to donate, throw away or keep while you are trying to move, you should move all your non-essential belongings into a storage unit. This will give you time to sort it later, and keep you focused on the move and lessen your stress.
A good first step before listing your home or signing a lease on a new smaller apartment is to prep for a "smaller" lifestyle. Go through each room, your garage and basement and decide which large items like furniture and exercise equipment that you will not need in the coming months. All of those items should be tagged and moved to your storage unit. This will make your home look larger, cleaner and less "lived in" which makes it more appealing to potential buyers. You should even clean out all closets and take down personal photos and other items that scream "family" or "kids". Removing all these excess items allows potential buyers to picture themselves and their family in your home.
The next step comes after you have sold your home. You will need to go through everything you have left and whatever you are unsure of should be moved to your storage unit. You can literally only take your bedroom items (bed, clothes, dresser), necessary kitchen items (toaster, coffee maker, plates, cups, cutlery), bathroom necessities (towels, toiletries) and a few items for your living room (TV, couch, lamp). The rest can wait until you get settled into your new home. This will keep it off your plate now, and allow you to go through everything in your storage unit at the same time.
When the time comes and you are ready to sort through everything in your storage unit, here are some things to keep in mind:
- Measure all your furniture, specifically the items you definitely want to keep. This will let you know what items can fit into your new smaller space. The large and oversized items like a sectional may need to be sold or donated if they will not fit. You can also keep them in your storage unit to give to a family member or close friend.
- If you will have less bedrooms in your new home, you will likely have extra bedroom suits and mattresses. Decide which ones you want for your new home, and keep the others in storage until you decide what to do with them.
- If you are moving into a condo or apartment and will not have a yard, you will no longer need your mower, rakes, shovels and other lawn tools.
- You may have a large piano or organ that is not going to fit in your new home. If it is a family heirloom, see if another family member wants it. Otherwise, you can keep it in a temperature control storage unit for now and decide what to do with it later.
- If you are downsizing into a retirement or assisted living community, or an apartment, you will likely have much less room than before. It may even be a single room that combines your bedroom, living room and dining room together with just your kitchen and bathroom separated. Storage space in these communities if very limited, and often there is just a single closet. Be prepared to only take what is absolutely necessary and that you can fit into your home.
- If you have a large collection of something like records, dolls or trains, you can almost guarantee that you will have no room for those items any more. You can pick out a few items that are most important to take with you, and keep them rest of the collection in a temperature control storage unit. Or, if you really want to downsize, you can sell the collection!
- Keep in mind what you will be placing into your storage unit. This will determine the size you need, and the type that will suit best. You can choose from drive up, interior access or temperature control at many storage locations. At 140 Mini Storage, we only offer drive up storage units. If you have no idea how to figure this out, talk to our knowledgeable property manager for assistance.
If the idea of downsizing in general gives you anxiety and causes great stress, you will be better off doing it in steps and taking your time. You can make a year-long plan and tackle one room at a time. You can hold off on looking for a new home until you get at least half way through everything. You can even rent a smaller home to "test it out" before buying to make sure you can actually live comfortably with less space. If you enjoy the smaller home after renting for a year, you can then make the leap to start looking to buy. This slower transition will give you time to adjust to a smaller space gradually over time in steps.
Using a self storage unit to help you downsize is a great idea. You can move all the clutter out of your way and make the whole process much smoother. Things like holiday decorations, lawn tools, outdoor furniture and recreational items like kayaks and bikes, are great to keep in storage during the off season even if you have plenty of space.
With a little planning and patience, downsizing can be much easier and less stressful. Don't think you can just jump right into it without any hiccups. A storage unit will become your best friend throughout the process. Make sure you hang on to your keepsakes and family heirlooms, because even if you don't have room to keep them, your kids may want them some day. With a storage unit, they will be kept safe and you can get them out whenever you want to or need to with ease.
If you are ready to start downsizing and you need to secure some storage space, you can rent a storage unit online 24/7 or stop by our rental office and speak with our helpful property manager. You can also contact us for more information.

Customers expect their purchases to be delivered quickly and it is up to the retailers to meet those demands. With so much competition out there, retailers cannot risk missing out. Everyone wants to be the default retailer and give their customers a superior experience. This means offering convenience, choice and quick service.
Retail stores want a delivery choice that suits the needs of their customers. While retailers offer delivery strategies, some don't offer it in the range that customers want and expect. People have easy access to the internet creating an insatiable desire and inspiring a trend of shoppers that don't fit into the traditional mold of past customers.
This new generation has a desire for connected and personalized experience that has left retailers trying to re-imagine the journey they need to create for their customers. This has put deliveries into the spotlight. A recent study showed that over 70% of retailers offer delivery options but do not guarantee after-hours and weekend deliveries. Customers want instant gratification and in most instances, same day service. The good news is that retailers can now hire reliable and efficient pickup truck services like Yalla Pickup that will cater to express delivery requirements.
Did you know that 50% of customers abandon purchases because of poor delivery options? This shows retailers the importance of delivering goods to your customers to best suit their requirements. It is unlikely that customers will wait around for days for their goods to reach them, like in the past. And for customers who want express delivery and in the instance you cannot provide it, but your competitor can, you will lose out.
What retailers need to understand is that customers expect a high standard of delivery options. And surveys find that delivery timing encourages customers to shop more and return to the same store. Introducing an express delivery service such as Yalla Pickup will pave the way for goods to be delivered on time and for customers to enjoy greater satisfaction.

While association rule mining is one of the most popular data mining techniques, it usually results in many rules, some of which are not considered as interesting or significant for the application at hand. In this paper, we conduct a systematic approach to ascertain the discovered rules and provide a rigorous statistical approach supporting this framework. The strategy proposed combines data mining and statistical measurement techniques, including redundancy analysis, sampling and multivariate statistical analysis, to discard the non significant rules. A real world dataset is used to demonstrate how the proposed unified framework can discard many of the redundant or non significant rules and still preserve high accuracy of the rule set as a whole.

I smoked my first habano a few years ago, and it was really a very special gift. As incredible as it may looks, despite I was born in a place where smoking puros is something usual, my first one came from a foreigner: James Suckling.
James Suckling, currently European editor for Cigar Aficionado, and a conspicuous Cuban enthusiast, is a person who has dedicated time and efforts to get to know our country from the inside. His articles about Cuban reality are read by thousands of people when coming to Cuba, and once here, they follow recommendations made by James. He's visited the Island several times to write about Cuban restaurants, and more than once, he's recommended La Casa restaurant. Every time we dine together the conversation has the habano air, and that's something you can't deny when talking with a complete connoisseur of wines and tobaccos.
That's how I put myself in this extraordinary world, but learning how to enjoy a cigar is something that comes with time. To recognize the subtleties of tastes, the aroma, or the blending of a Cuban cigar, is a unique experience. As I talk about this topic, always remember Fernando Ortiz, the Cuban writer and historian, who said that smoking a cigar is an act of pure sovereignty.
The preference for one or another, will be just the result of personal experience. Since long ago, I have decided for the Cohiba Robustos, to be smoked accompanied by an aged Havana Club, or a good Ron Santiago. However, when I'm in the mood for a loaded cup of Cuban coffee, there's nothing like the Robustos T from the Trinidad brand (truly a jewel with more than a decade in the international market).
There are several secrets that will allow the cigar smoker to get a complete profit and pleasure from his habano… among all them, I recommend patience. From the very moment we taste a cigar, we notice this is an act of peacefulness: it's good to burn it little by little, with the flame not too close. After that, we'll be able to realize the different flavors of the habano, from the slightest ones (at the beginning) to the strongest (the last third of the cigar). My personal advice: let yourself admire the shape of the ashes in the cigar, so you could learn more things about the blend of that particular habano.
To never forget: there are no bad beginnings in the habanos world, because each one of them keeps a unique experience, and that could only be discovered with the first smoke.

June 30th, 2004
Really glows James-great stuff my friend!
June 30th, 2004
As always James ... your the king. This has a quality of light to it that I cant put my finger on but makes the piece so enchanting. The composition is really interesting too. Kind of art nouveau but more surreal. Great work. Is it just me or do you get better with every new piece? Enough groveling eh.

Very nice, James! I'm still waiting for you to do me!

Zak sat across from Nick at the small hotel bar, Nick's cell phone in his hand. He had no words to explain the picture in front of him. There was nothing he could say. I'm sorry even seemed cliché. "Did you sleep with him too, Zak?" Nick asked, his words full of pain.
Zak shook his head. "No." That was the one solace he had. It had just been a kiss. A very poorly timed, public, kiss. "Who sent this to you?"
"That doesn't matter."
Zak dropped his head. He was right. It didn't matter, because it didn't take back the fact that it happened.
"Matching shirts too? That's a little overboard, don't you think? How long, Zak? How long has this been going on behind my back?" The pain had turned to an angry whisper.
Zak wanted to drop the phone and just run out of the bar. "Nick, we're not together. We're not dating. It was just a moment…"
"Just a moment? What the fuck, Zak? Is what we had just a moment?"
The words stung him. "No. I love you. I've dedicated my life to you." You just never returned the dedication, he wanted to say, but this wasn't that argument. Zak knew that would turn this ugly and he didn't want to have that conversation at a very public bar.
Nick took his phone back and put it in his pocket as the waitress dropped off their beers. Zak looked up at his face. He looked like he had aged ten years since the last time he had seen him. The lines had grown deeper, and a redness, a puffiness, that had never been there before seemed to dominate his features. Zak wanted to reach up, touch his face, run his fingertips over the soft beard. The feel of it against his skin had been at the top of his favorite things list for the past ten years. Nick sighed. "I can't do this, Zak, if you're going to be with him."
Zak shook his head. "We can fire him, not take him on trips, anything. Please don't leave, Nick." His voice, his eyes, begged, "Please?" Zak dared to reach a hand across the table and grab Nick's, squeezing it. "I can't do this without you."
Nick snatched his hand away angrily, putting it under the table on his leg. "Seems like you've been doing just fine without me. Or have you forgotten that I still get all of your twitter posts on my phone?"
Zak sighed, but the anger in him started to bubble up. "What? You want me to put what I'm really feeling? That I wish it was just you and I at places like it used to be? That when things get a little scary, I know I can hold my hand out and you'll take it? That I miss you like crazy when you have to stay home for that extra day? Is that what you want me to put on my twitter? Because if that's what it takes, I will."
Nick looked down into his beer. "I don't know, Zak."
Silence fell over their table. Nick stared hard into his beer as Zak watched him. Over his shoulder, he saw Billy and Aaron enter the bar. Both men waved and started walking towards them but Zak quickly shook his head. Aaron stopped walking, grabbing Billy's arm and pulling him away. He made a mental note to buy that man some Starbucks later. If Billy had walked up to their table right then, he thought for sure Nick would just be done with the whole thing and leave town that night. Nick wasn't a violent person, and at this moment, he thanked God for that. Because if anyone made a move on Nick in Zak's presence…
"I love you," Zak said again, a little louder.
Nick smiled slightly, still not looking up. "Love you, too," he mumbled.
Zak kicked his foot softly under the table. "What happened to us, Nick?"
Looking up, his face was etched in pain and heartache. "Too much."
Zak nodded, his own emotion swelling up in him.
Nick cleared his throat. "You know, if you want to… be… with Billy, then be with him."
"Are you breaking up with me?"
Nick looked up at him, tears threatening to cascade over his bottom eyelashes. "No, you did that for me." Zak's phone vibrated in his pocket. "Answer it. I know its him."
Zak shook his head. It couldn't be Billy. He wouldn't be that stupid. Pulling the phone out, he looked at the text message. It was a sucker punch to the gut. Billy had texted him. What's wrong? Are you ok? Zak closed his eyes.
Nick shrugged, finishing his beer. "I told you. It's fine, Zak. Invite him down. I was just leaving anyways."
"No. I'm not inviting him here. This is between you and me. There is nothing going on with Billy, Nick. I fucking love you and you know that."
"Do I?" Nick pulled out a $20 bill, laying it on the table.
"I've spent ten years waiting for you to leave your wife," he whispered angrily.
"Oh, is that what this is about? Well you can forget that happening now."
"I had forgotten it six years ago."
Nick stood up. "Well then, this is it. See you for filming tomorrow afternoon. Hope you and Billy sleep well tonight."
Panic rose in Zak's blood. He grabbed Nick's arm, pulling him back as he started to walk off. Pulling him in, Zak took Nick's face in his hands, kissing him hard. Letting go, Nick stood there, in complete shock. The bar continued on around them as the two men stood there staring at each other. "Don't leave me, please," Zak begged.
"You fucked up," Nick shook his head. "I'm sorry, Zak." And he turned and walked out of the bar.
Zak watched as he left, praying for a miracle as his phone buzzed on the table.

Entertainment in Canada boasts all of the sophistication vacationers have come to expect from a significant North American nation, coupled with pleasant rural entertainment in stress-free local venues. Tony Hunter (Fred Astaire) is a top musical movie star but is feeling previous and unwanted. This film musical has an excellent music soundtrack with many great songs you will acknowledge. Demise Race might not have the depth and a robust plot; you might not have anything to speak about when you're performed watching it, but it's still a pretty entertaining movie, filled with tons of fast-paced motion.
Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliette gets a 20th century replace in this adaptation of the Broadway musical, West Facet Story. I've also seen you can buy birthday valentines, so there have to be a lot of other individuals born that day. That is considered one of my favorite music films of all time and an incredible love story tragedy.
There are the light-hearted backstage musicals that provide us with glimpse on the stars behind the scenes, equivalent to Singin' within the Rain and The Band Wagon. While Mary Poppins is a household movie, it's also the most effective Broadway musicals of all time.
Ever because the earliest days of statehood, Oklahoma has always had a fantastic wealth of musical expertise. 12. Ebook a palm reader to make psychic predictions about the future of the corporate or to inform people's fortunes. These CDs not solely stored music, it was versatile enough to store motion pictures, knowledge, pictures or even software.
The Verge's entertainment part collects the latest information from the worlds of popular culture, music, films, tv, and video games. 300, Troy, Gladiator and each different battle motion pictures made after took a leaf out of Braveheart's guide. I inform my kids to read at the least a half an hour a day, however that is good recommendation for anyone.

December can be such a fun month. I've enjoyed all the different blogger movements, and the Frugal Portland Gift Exchange did not disappoint. Thanks to the lovely Kathleen for putting this together. I drew the name of Catherine from Plunged in Debt. For her gift, she received a wine bottle candelabra and wine glass markers with a corkscrew. I thought this was a wonderful gift for her, except after I mailed it, I second guessed my memory. I thought I had read that she was a red wine enthusiast, but maybe I got that mixed up with someone else. If it turns out she doesn't drink, won't I feel silly? However, she will have some great items to re-gift. When my gift arrived, I really had sort of forgotten and thought it was one of the neighbor's packages dropped off by mistake. They keep UPS in business, so we get strays delivered to hour house on occasion. This box had my name on it, though, so I ripped it open to find……… This headdress, very similar to the one I wore when I made a fool of myself sang YMCA as one of the village people while under hypnosis.

The Sandman, Hypnosis, and The Village People
Since you, my loyal readers, have already gotten two financial posts here and and guest posts at Club Thrifty and Unique Gifter this week, I am going to give you a funny story from my past that has absolutely nothing to do with money. We are all born with special gifts. Some of us have artistic or athletic talents. Some are good with numbers. Some of us have rather unique skills that really don't benefit us except for providing amusment to others. I apparently have the gift of being an easy person to hypnotize, and I found that out in a very public way. When I was in optometry school in Memphis, I went out with a group of friends one evening to celebrate someone's birthday. We decided to go to the stand -up comedy club to see The Sandman, a hypnotist. At the time, I didn't believe in hypnosis. I was a science major and a rational person. It just didn't make sense to me, and I thought people who were supposedly under hypnosis were faking it. This was comedy, though, so it should be good for a laugh, even if it was all fake. When it was time for the show, this tall, ...Read More »

NEW PIG INTRODUCES PIG® SEDIMENT DRAIN FILTERS -collect debris in catch basins to help meet EPA Stormwater Regs
New Pig has introduced a new line of PIG® Sediment Drain Filters to collect solids that enter storm drains and help facilities meet EPA Stormwater Requirements for minimizing pollutants in stormwater runoff.
UV-resistant, durable and reusable, the filters are constructed of a monofilament polypropylene to capture sand, dirt, sediment, trash, leaves, sticks, cigarette butts and other solids that are washed into storm drains during rain and snowmelt events. Integrated straps secure the bag in place under the drain grate without the use of rebar and cradle the grate for added support and security during installation and removal. The filters feature high-viz straps that can easily be seen above the storm grates by workers and compliance inspectors.
Available in four different sizes and capacity combinations, the filters can handle large capacities but remain manageable during maintenance – not requiring heavy lifting equipment or forklifts for removal. Bypass ports at the top of each insert allow stormwater to continue to flow into the drain during heavy flow or if filters become blocked, and also provide an opening to collect samples of filtered stormwater. Filters feature a high flow rate per minute to minimize bypass and help prevent flooding when the unit is properly maintained.
For more information on New Pig's line of Sediment Drain Filters, please visit www.newpig.com or call 1-800-HOT-HOGS.


text: Mam's slight improvement following her 80th birthday party, which we held in the care home, came to a dramatic end when she had a fall on Friday. She now looks as if she has been in a boxing match with a large bump on her forehead, two black eyes and a badly bruised nose. We visited on Friday, but all we got from her was that she needed to cook the vegetables and meat. She continually tried getting off the chair and going for a walk even though she could hardly stand never mind walk. We managed to distract her by feeding her jelly babies! We visited her again today and she has dramatically declined. She was totally incomprehensible and so unsteady on her feet that we had to get a wheelchair. She just sat there with her head almost resting on her lap. She has stopped going to bed again and stopped eating and looks so weak and tired. She did manage 2 hours sleep during the day and a care worker stayed with her in case she tried to get out of bed and had another fall. We think that the end could be close, however, the carers think if they can get her to go to bed she may pick up again. We remember back in February that her consultant said she thought mam had about 6 months left, that time is getting close.

The Intersection of the Internet and Politics
As the campaign trail is heating up, more and more candidates are making visits to popular tech companies in hopes of garnering support from the industry. Hillary Clinton has visited multiple companies, including Lyft and Box; Donald Trump made a memorable visit to Twitter's NYC headquarters; and we at Dyn have welcomed Sen. Rand Paul, Gov. John Kasich and Sen. Lindsey Graham with plans to host more hopefuls before election day.
Tech companies are so important for campaigners due to the type of potential voters that candidates want to reach and win over; the sway that tech giants like Google, Twitter, and Facebook all have; and the growing importance of tech-based issues, like Net Neutrality. Many of these companies want to host candidates to hear how their policies will affect not only how the companies operate, but also what it would mean for their customers as well.
At Dyn, our unique vantage point on Internet performance helps our clients deliver the exceptional online experience that their customers demand. It also gives us an unparalleled insight into the biggest issues - and challenges - facing the World Wide Web. As Presidential candidates are welcomed to Dyn and other tech companies in the coming months, here are just a few of the issues we hope to see them discuss:
- Importance of US Investment in Internet Infrastructure - Every company operating online is a global company, but a company's access, availability, reachabilty and speed online are all important considerations in an increasingly competitive online landscape.
- Impact of Global eCommerce on International Trade - Our research found that 70% of consumers globally have bought from foreign retailers within the past year. As competition for valuable online consumers increases, so will the need to provide the best end-user experience for customers and invest in Internet infrastructure tools that build and maintain brand loyalty and reputation.
- How Internet Disruptions & Outages Impact Global Business - While it might come as a surprise, there are roughly 3,000 outages on the Internet every day, and many more redirects and hijacks that can have a serious impact on business continuity online. As the Internet grows in scale and complexity, these issues will only become more magnified.
- How Hacks Affect Global Business and What Companies Can Do to Mitigate Risk - Security is one of the biggest hot button issues for consumers who do business online, however security measures for your internal networks and data centers won't prevent security breaches for data flowing through the global Web.
- Tips to Doing Business in China and India - China recently eclipsed the US as the largest economy in the world and between China and India there are nearly a billion consumers who already do business online. Understanding and connecting with these markets will be the biggest challenge and opportunity of the 21st Century.
- Internet protocol and Internet governance - As the Internet continues to grow in prominence around the world, issues of Internet protocol, governance and international fair play will only grow in importance. At Dyn, our experts have been key influencers in governance bodies including the IAB, ICANN, and IETF and play a prominent role in the decision-making bodies that make the Internet one of the most valuable tools of the modern era.
- How Internet conditions in Cuba, Iran, Mynamar, Africa and other emerging markets Impact the Global Web- Dyn experts break news on the health (U.S. suspends, then resumes military exercises after N. Korea fires artillery and Fibre Cuts Slow Internet Speeds) and vitality of the global Internet more than any other source in the industry. Our vision into the World Wide Web is unrivaled.
- Mobile and its Effect on the Global Internet - Mobile is the preferred - and in some cases, the only - channel to access eRetail in many countries around the world. In 2014, mobile sales accounted for 41 percent of eCommerce in India—more than any other country including China (33 percent) and the US (15 percent).
Decision 2016 will be a significant election for the future of the United States and the next President will have a huge impact on the growth of the global Web. We hope some of the above issues will make an impact on our leaders as we all help shape the future of the Internet.
