CHRISTIANITY: Lights Out by Gary M. Schimmer
Stories, Scripture, Hymns, and Art for the Christian Journey
From: Emmaus Road
Live as children of light.
(Ephesians 5:8b)
I have enjoyed doing children's sermons since I began my ordained ministry decades ago. Each Sunday I talked to children about the meaning of one of the Bible verses from the lectionary. I always tried to make one point in my talks. I used signs, toys, pictures, and movements to illustrate my message.
One Sunday I talked about Jesus's message for people to be the light of the world. Now that concept was not easy to communicate to children because it was a metaphor. Nonetheless, I gave it a try. I gave each child a little flashlight. They aimed their lights at each other and on the walls of the church building. I emphasized that Jesus wants us to be the light of the world. That meant that we are to love him and others. So we are to let that love of Christ shine in our lives.
On Monday I received an email from a father whose child had listened to my sermon. It seems that the parents of this child had asked him what he learned from the children's sermon. The parents hoped that their child would talk about loving Jesus and others. But instead the little one said to his parents, "Pastor Schimmer wants us to keep all the lights on in the house."
Poking a little fun at me, the father wrote, "Pastor Schimmer, I will now be sending you my electric bills." So much for trying to explain to a Biblical metaphor to three-and four-year-old children.
Emmaus Road
The red, green, and yellow lights of a traffic signal make for safe travel. The flashing blue lights of a police car caution us to slow down and finally stop our vehicles. The white, streaming light from a lighthouse provides safe harbor for a vessel at sea. So when Jesus used the metaphor the light of the world, what does that mean for us? He called us to bear good fruit for him in this world. Our faith in this world is not to remain hidden. It is for all to see. We are to bear witness to Christ's love, and that means service and even sacrifice.
A flash of light provides guidance. A flash of light illumines pathways. A flash of light reveals what was once hidden. Likewise, as we let our light of faith shine in this world, we guide those sitting in spiritual darkness. We illuminate pathways so others see what is true and just. We uncover the deep and deceptive evil in this world so that it can be defeated, and peace will once again flourish.
Holy Spirit, may we be lights of faith to shine in this world and reflect the love of Christ.
"I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light," Evangelical Lutheran Worship (ELW) #815.
I want to walk as a child of the light;
I want to follow Jesus.
God set the stars to give light to the world;
The star of my life is Jesus.
In him there is no darkness at all.
The night and the day are both alike.
The Lamb is the light of the city of God.
Shine in my heart, Lord Jesus.
I want to see the brightness of God;
I want to look at Jesus.
Clear Sun of righteousness shine on my path,
And show me the way to the Father.
I'm looking for the coming of Christ;
I want to be with Jesus.
When we have run with patience the race,
We shall know the joy of Jesus.
Children love to sing this hymn about their divine calling to live by following Jesus and to let his love shine in all that they do, think, and say.
Creation of Light, George Richmond, 1826.
Describe the anthropomorphic image of God in this painting. Does God appear to be an elderly, feeble man, or is God depicted as a strong and powerful person? Does God appear to make room for light with the sweeping motion of his hand? Describe the image of light in this painting. Is light streaming through the darkness like rays of sun breaking through dark clouds? Does the creation of light by God provide hope in the midst of darkness and chaos?

Complainant: Reboni Furniture Group
Lodged by: Glyn Marais attorneys
Article: 'We're being exploited'. A headline on the front page read Ria's horror factory: One worker dead and two mutilated – Page 5
Author of article: Mogomotsi Selebi
Date: 19 April 2013
Respondent: Sowetan
The Reboni Furniture Group (RFG) complains about a story in Sowetan on 7 November 2012, headlined 'We're being exploited'. A headline on the front page read Ria's horror factory: One worker dead and two mutilated – Page 5.
The RFG complains that:
· some statements reportedly coming from workers, or with regards to them, were either inaccurate or out of context;
· a statement by Cosatu's North West provincial secretary and a counter-statement by the RFG's manager are irrelevant and out of context, and that some statements regarding the provincial Labour Department were false;
· the headline was distorted, inaccurate and defamatory; and
· the newspaper's communication with the group prior to publication was inadequate.
In general, the RFG says that the story was distorted, inaccurate, out of context, unfair, defamatory, and inflammatory.
The story, written by Mogomotsi Selebi, said that factory workers at the RFG have accused football administrator and a director of the group, Ms Ria Ledwaba, of caring more about profits that their well-being. It also contained allegations of an exploitative working environment at the RFG. Selebi wrote that some employees protested outside the company's premises against the high rate of accidents – one of which reportedly resulted in somebody's death in March of the previous year.
Statements by/about workers
The following (in bullet form) are the statements that the RFG complains about:
· "Workers at a factory linked to football administrator, Ria Ledwaba, have accused the company of caring more about profits than their wellbeing."
The RFG denies that it did not care for its employees and states that it is known as the best employer in the region (it says that it pays on average 48% higher than industry minimums and that the vast majority of the permanent employees have more than 10 years' service).
Sowetan replies that there is no denial that workers were paid the amounts that the story quoted. Besides, the article was not about the furniture industry, but about the general working conditions at the RFG.
· "On Friday, the workers…protested outside the company's premises."
This sentence appeared immediately after the one mentioned above.
The RFG complains that this allegation "appears (to be) completely out of context" in that it suggested that the reason for the protests were as a result of it caring more about profits that the well-being of the workers. However, the company does admit that protests have taken place.
Sowetan notes that the RFG admits that there was a protest – the rest are the company's "own interpretations and subjective opinions".
This sentence has to be read in conjunction with the one that follows.
· "The employees say they are fed up about the high rate of accidents and injuries at the factory."
The RFG denies this allegation and says that it is meticulous about safety in its factory. It states that in the past four years and with more than 300 employees, it has experienced 14 minor incidents (cuts and bruises), "all of which resulted in full recoveries". It admits that there was one serious accident that resulted in a "minor disability" and there was also one fatal accident (the only one in the group's history). It points out that the average accident rate in the furniture industry was approximately 15 accidents per year, and that its own figures were 4.25 per annum.
The newspaper replies: "The story was about those serious injuries which the complainant believes are 'minor' and 'isolated', but which in the context of the value we attach to human life and the finding of the Department of Labour, we believe are newsworthy incidents."
The RFG replies that it never said that it does not take the lives of their workers seriously. "Such an allegation is rejected and denied."
· "The employees claim (Mr Vusi) Mafika was hit by a piece of wood on the head in March last year. They further claim that while Mafika lay injured on the floor, management ordered them to 'go back to work as if nothing had happened'."
Mafika reportedly died as a result of his injuries.
The RFG complains that the allegation in the second sentence was inaccurate. The group says that the factory manager asked employees to return to their areas of work "as a matter of first aid protocol" and to clear the way so that Mafika could be treated by emergency medical assistants (as a large group of workers had gathered around him, blocking access to him). The RFG mentions that the official finding of an investigation into the incident was that it was a freak accident for which no blame could be ascribed to management or to Mafika.
The newspaper says that it spoke to workers who witnessed Mafika's death, who ascribed the incident to the general working conditions of the factory.
· "The workers say none of their injured colleagues had been compensated for their injuries, which had left some without fingers…while others have suffered terrible burn wounds."
The RFG denies these allegations and refers to the statistics mentioned above. It also says that it ensures that all relevant documentation is immediately submitted to both the Department of Labour and the Compensation Commissioner. The group explains that it has no control over the payment of compensation and that it is not able to interfere with or influence the Commissioner's findings.
Sowetan replies that the RFG clearly did not know whether or not its workers were compensated.
· "Machine operations Fanie Segone and Philemon Mothante have no fingers, which they claim they lost while working in the company's machines… 'It is difficult to make ends meet because I also have to support two children. I only received R3 000 from the provident fund after I lost my hand,' Seemise (another worker who had an accident) said."
The RFG admits that these statements were accurate, but complains that they were out of context. The group says that the Department of Labour conducted a full investigation into both these accidents. It adds that Segone's accident happened 16 years before the publication of the story – and states that the reasons for the workers' protests had nothing to do with this incident. The RFG says that it had no say in the R3 000 that Seemise received from the provident fund.
The newspaper says that the company admits that the statements were true and therefore it "needs no further response". It adds that Seemise was entitled to his opinion.
· "Segone lost his thumb and fingers in an accident on June 3 last year. 'I was blowing off dust from a machine using a small pipe when a bigger pipe sucked my hand in. That is how I got injured,' Segone said. Asked why he did not switch off the bigger machine at the time, Segone said: 'The manager, Etienne Fourie, insists that the machines must be left on until we close.' He said he was taken to hospital and 'left there all by myself'. Segone said they do use safety gloves and boots but that 'the person responsible for the safety equipment, Mmapula Khumalo, sometimes tells us that there isn't any equipment to use'."
The RFG says that its work practice dictated that machines should be left on in cases of accidents or injuries. The group adds that Segone was using compressed air to clean a machine – which was not permitted (and to which all workers were alerted). It was also standard company practice that a health/safety officer was on standby to complete all the necessary documentation and ensure a safe handover of the injured employee to a medical practitioner for further attention. Regarding safety gloves and boots, the RFG admits that there were incidents where dust masks have run out of stock, "but these were all immediately rectified".
Sowetan reiterates that Seemise and Segone were entitled to his opinion, and emphasizes the use of the word "sometimes" in the quote.
Here are my considerations:
· Some of the arguments (from both sides) went beyond the texts that the RFG complained about – I shall use those arguments only as background information;
· All but one of the above-mentioned texts were allegations that were – without fail – attributed to sources;
· These sources had the right to say what they reportedly did, and the newspaper had the right to publish them; and
· Reboni says that some of the texts were accurate, but out of context as the strike was about wages and not as a result of poor health and safety. That may be true, but the fact remains that the workers reportedly were also dissatisfied with working conditions at the RFG – rightly or wrongly. Again, it was their right to say what they reportedly said, and the newspaper was justified in reporting that.
Provincial secretary vs. manager; Provincial Labour Department
The story stated that that Cosatu's North West provincial secretary, Mr Solly Phetoe, had said that the RFG's manager, Mr Etienne Fourie, was "arrogant" when he had been told about allegations regarding working conditions and that he had replied: "Phetoe is talking rubbish. He is lying."
The article also said: "Spokeswoman for the provincial labour department Orpa Mathabe…said Fourie had initially denied its officials entry into the factory when they went there to do a site visit. Mathabe said when they were finally allowed into the factory they found no safety measures in place and 'the toilets were also in a bad state'. She reportedly said their inspectors found some improvements on a return visit to the factory on November 1. 'All the other issues had been addressed except for the toilets and the noise assessment. The inspectors will be going back again next week. There were no health and safety representatives, incidents were not recorded and there was no risk assessment in place', said Mathabe."
The RFG complains that these statements were irrelevant and adds that the context was in dispute. It says that:
· the union was insistent that it should engage into plant level negotiations (a practice disallowed by the collective bargaining agreement);
· the strike was illegal;
· it was compliant with its legal obligations;
· it has always welcomed the Department of Labour onto its premises;
· its safety standards always met all required specifications and it underwent annual risk audits to maintain its compliance;
· its toilets were always clean; and
· it carried out an internal survey and provided earplugs for every employee.
The group adds that the journalist neglected to report these facts.
Sowetan replies that, while Ledwaba commented on the safety situation at the factory, Fourie could say only a few words and was clearly not interested in engaging in detailed conversation with its reporter. It adds that the Department of Labour was the only competent authority to make findings on safety issues of this nature.
I now need to take a closer look at the newspaper's reporting on the two responses at hand (by Ledwaba and by the Department of Labour).
The story devoted only one paragraph to Ledwaba's comments. These were that the RFG trained its employers properly, that Mafika's death was an unfortunate accident; and it included some statements regarding Fourie.
I note that the article indeed did not include the RFG's views on most of the issues that it complains about – the most important of which probably was that its safety standards always met all required specifications and it underwent annual risk audits to maintain its compliance.
In addition to the list above, the story also did not report Ledwaba's comments on:
· the high rate of accidents and injuries;
· compensation of the employees;
· labour officials who allegedly were denied entrance to the RFG; and
· noise assessment.
I have already stated that the Sowetan was entitled to publish comments by workers, who were free to comment. However, the shoe is now on the other foot – in the interest of balance and fairness these comments should have been put to Ledwaba. The newspaper should have given factory management a full opportunity to deal with all the allegations that directly or indirectly impacted on the RFG.
The Department of Labour
It was the journalist's right to quote Mathabe. However, the story should have made it clear that the inspection that she referred to was done on 1 November 2011 (which it did not do). As the story was published on 7 November 2012, this left the misleading impression that the inspection was done immediately prior to publication. This, in turn, negated all the progress that the RFG may have made in improving working conditions.
The RFG complains that the headline was distorted, inaccurate, exaggerated and defamatory. It says that it targeted one of its directors (Ledwaba) and argues that presumably "this deliberate distortion was perpetrated as a result of Ria's public image as a soccer administrator". The group says that the headline was defamatory "as it was couched in a fashion which is intended to deceive its readers of the true facts recorded herein".
Sowetan concedes that the headline was inaccurate insofar as it created the impression that she was the only director – hence "we were willing to do a follow up story that would clarify the company's shareholding". However, the newspaper states that Ledwaba's and Fraser's undertaking to assist was "later aborted". It says that it was still willing to rectify this matter.
It also defends the use of the word "horror" in the headline – "unless the company wants to suggest otherwise". It adds that this word must be seen in light of the manner in which employees quoted in the story described their working conditions, and the details contained in the report by the Department of Labour.
The newspaper argues that Ledwaba was indeed a public figure with a high profile and a well-known soccer administrator – which "cannot be wished away" and is "a fact".
In response, the RFG says that the limited number of incidents that the story quoted (one of which happened over 16 years ago), "does not constitute a horrific situation".
Here are my considerations:
· The word "horror" in the headline should have been put in inverted commas. The newspaper's own argument testifies to this (see: "employees quoted"). As it stands, the headline portrays "horror factory" not as an opinion, but as fact; and
· The word "Ria's" (horror factory) indeed created the wrong impression that Ledwaba was the RFG's only director (as admitted by the newspaper).
Inadequate communication; lack of verification
The RFG complains that the newspaper's questions to Ledwaba did not properly address the issues that the story reported on and that that led to a lack of the necessary verification. It says that Sowetan only asked her about the fatal incident (she says that the company was cleared in this regard) and about allegations that Fourie had been accused of mistreating workers.
Then, after publication, the newspaper asked her about the identities of other directors and other related matters. The group says that this clearly demonstrated that the journalist made no attempts to verify the facts of the story and that the Sowetan had not even tried to contact its other directors and in particular its managing director, Mr Max Frehse.
The group also says that when Fourie was contacted for comment he did not know that he was speaking with a reporter from the Sowetan. It adds that Fourie was approached by only one reporter, who had announced himself as being from the SABC. "At no time was Mr Fourie approached by the Sowetan, nor was he ever made aware that his comment was required for the purposes of responding to an incorrect and/or distorted news article." It adds that, other than a general request for comment, Fourie was never asked to confirm or deny any of the information that the newspaper relied upon in its story.
Sowetan replies that:
· it was clear from the Department of Labour's report that Ledwaba's claim that the company was cleared was misleading. "The report (instead) provides detail of the company's failure to comply with safety regulations";
· the reporter asked Ledwaba about the treatment of workers, and the story recorded her response;
· when Ledwaba brought the issue of other directors to its attention, it undertook to correct the matter through a follow-up story (which never materialized as Ledwaba and Fraser "changed their minds"). It states that it still remained committed to addressing this issue;
· soon after Ledwaba claimed that the report had cleared the RFG, it became necessary to ask follow-up questions to provide details (as the report allegedly did not clear the company);
· it is "utterly false" that Selebi did not contact Fourie – both she and a photographer visited the Reboni premises and the reporter put the allegations to him. He "simply dismissed" these and described the allegations by a Cosatu representative as "rubbish" and "lying" (the story reported these statements); and
· Fourie's denial that he met with a Sowetan reporter is "shocking and unbelievable".
The RFG replies that the newspaper's questions were not follow-up issues, but instead clarification questions "clearly indicating that the Sowetan had not done the necessary investigation prior to publishing the article".
I have summarized the above for the sake of completeness. However, I believe that I have already adequately dealt with these matters. The rest of the issues that I have not already covered, are not material to the complaint. This sub-section will therefore not form part of my finding (below).
In general: Distorted, inaccurate, out of context, unfair, defamatory
The RFG complains that the story was distorted, inaccurate, out of context and it "intentionally, alternatively negligently failed to report in a manner that was fair, accurate and truthful". It says that the newspaper's failure to verify facts and the material omissions mentioned above had the effect of leaving the average reader with an inaccurate and distorted view of the group. It also cast Ledwaba in an unfair light and insinuated her as a person who disregarded the safety and security of her workforce. It adds that the story portrayed her position as a director out of context.
The group argues that the story created the potential of inciting further violence against the company and states that it in fact condoned the unlawful activities of the employees ("by failing to set out the true state of affairs"). It states that the newspaper focused on "an isolated and small group of incidents" that took place in order to falsely portray it as an irresponsible employer.
Sowetan denies all of these allegations, specifically that the story:
· meant to suggest that Ledwaba personally disregarded the safety and security of workers. "The article merely reported her links to the company." In fact, the story clearly stated that it was Fourie who had been accused – not Ledwaba;
· had the potential to incite violence. "This suggestion is out of sync with the media's responsibility and duty to society: to tell the truth as is and to expose all manifestations of power – in both public and private sectors"; and
· deliberately disregarded facts.
The newspaper is adamant that it did not regard the injuries and death that occurred as "isolated and a small group of incidents".
Again, I have already dealt with these matters – I have stated that the reporting was accurate and (mostly) in context, but added that it was not fair as the story did not include that the RFG's comments on important matters.
This sub-section will therefore also not form part of my finding (below).
Sowetan tried to resolve the matter at the time the complaint was made by offering to publish a follow-up story. This has to be commended.
Statements by/about workers
This part of the complaint is dismissed.
Provincial secretary vs. manager; Provincial Labour Department
The story neglected to report Ledwaba's comments on most of the serious allegations levelled against the RFG (the reporting of some of her views was not nearly adequate). This was unbalanced and unfair, and in breach of the following sections of the Press Code:
· Art. 1.1: "The press shall be obliged to report news…fairly";
· Art. 1.2: "News shall be presented in context and in a balanced manner, without any intentional or negligent departure of the facts whether by…material omissions…"; and
· Art. 1.5: "A publication should seek the views of the subject of serious critical reportage in advance of publication."
The Department of Labour
The story created the false impression that the Department's inspection was done immediately prior to publication. This, in turn, negated all the progress that the RFG may have made to improve working conditions during that year. This was unfair, misleading and out of context. It is in breach of Art. 1.1 of the Press Code: "The press shall be obliged to report news truthfully, accurately and fairly." It also breached Art. 1.2 of the Code.
"Horror": The headline portrayed opinion as fact, while the story attributed the "horror" stories to sources. This is in breach of Art. 11.1 of the Press Code: "Headlines…shall give a reasonable reflection of the contents of the report…in question."
"Ria's" (horror factory): This word created the wrong impression that Ledwaba was the RFG's only director. This is in breach of Art. 1.1 of the Code.
Sowetan is directed to apologise to the RFG for:
· neglecting to adequately report Ledwaba's (or the RFG's) comments on serious allegations;
· creating the false impression that the Department's its inspection was done immediately prior to publication; and
· its misleading headline.
It is also directed to include the RFG's comments on matters that the story in dispute failed to do (as outlined above) in the text (below) that it is directed to publish on page 5 – if indeed the RFG wants to have its comments published.
Beginning of text:
Sowetan apologises to the Reboni Furniture Group (RFG) for neglecting to adequately report the comments of one of its directors, Ms Ria Ledwaba (or that of the RFG) on some serious allegations levelled against the group, for creating the false impression that the Department's inspection was done immediately prior to publication, and for a misleading headline.
The RFG lodged a complaint with the Press Ombudsman about a story on 7 November 2012, headlined 'We're being exploited'. A headline on the front page read Ria's horror factory: One worker dead and two mutilated – Page 5.
The story, written by Mogomotsi Selebi, said that factory workers at the RFG have accused Ledwaba of caring more about profits that their well-being. It also contained allegations of an exploitative working environment at the RFG. Selebi wrote that some employees protested outside the company's premises against the high rate of accidents – one of which reportedly resulted in somebody's death in March of the previous year.
Press Ombudsman Johan Retief directed us to apologise, saying that we neglected to report
the RFG's views on most of the serious allegations made against it – "the most important of which probably was that its safety standards always met all required specifications and it underwent annual risk audits to maintain its compliance."
LEDWABA'S COMMENTS TO BE INCLUDED HERE (if she wishes to do so).
Retief dismissed the RFG's complaint about seven sentences that attributed information to sources. He said: "These sources had the right to say what they reportedly did, and the newspaper had the right to publish them."
He added also rejected the complaint that some of these sentences were out of context.

So everybody wanted Arsene Wenger to leave because we felt that Arsenal had no ambition other than to try and get into the Champions League positions, a target that Wenger failed to do for the last two seasons after 10 years of scraping into those positions even when we were paying for our new stadium.
Now everyone is very happy that we have a new top-class coach, but do we expect Emery to actually get us challenging for the title, or are we going to be satisfied if he can simply get us back into the Wenger-Trophy positions? The bookies are not very confident that Emery can even manage this, as if you check the prices on sites like Bookie Pro you will find the five teams that finished above us are all less than evens, whereas Arsenal can be backed at up to 11/4 to break back into the Top Four.
The fact is that Man City and Man United have been making massive investments to try and be Top Dogs, while Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea have been getting more and more competitive and are all knocking on the door every season as well, by appointing top class managers and making shrewd investments, so it is going to be far from easy for Emery to suddenly overtake them quickly.
The respected Arsenal legend Ray Parlour has probably hit the nail on the head when he was asked if the Gunners could now expect to win the title with the new team in place. "I would love him to do it, but I'm going to say no," Parlour said.
"I think Man City are going to get stronger and stronger, and I think Pep Guardiola is going to stick around.
"I can't see who's going to challenge them.
"Top four is going to be important [for Arsenal].
"They've got to get back into the Champions League, so, for me, top four will be a very successful season."
"Unless there's massive investment, the same as at Man City, [they'll never win the league].
"Man City will go out and buy the big players. If Pep Guardiola stays around and they keep trying to make the squad better, it's going to be very difficult."
So despite the massive changes, do Arsenal fans really believe that Emery can get us challenging for the title simply by his coaching methods alone, or is he banging his head against a brick wall unless Kroenke loosens the purse strings and competes with the Manchester clubs for really top players?

KINGSTON — Business operators in sections of downtown Kingston yesterday expressed frustration over the filthy state of and general lawlessness in the country's main commercial hub with at least one large store owner saying he had lost hope and would be shuttering his operation.
The operators said that despite constant calls for the Kingston and St Andrew Corporation and other authorities to restore discipline, wanton disregard for law and order continued to thrive in sections of the city.
The store operators, as well as sidewalk vendors, also said they were concerned that not enough was being done to provide basic services that will ensure public health is maintained in the city where thousands of people do business daily.
"Look at the place. How can we continue to operate under this condition? This is the worst we have seen downtown," said Laurence Heffes, operator of Heffes Sales and Company Ltd.
His frustration was echoed by Robert Walker, who operates a store on Beckford Street.
"The situation has gone from bad to worse. Look at the massive garbage pile-up on the roadway; look at the streets covered with raw sewage; when is something going to be done to address this problem?" he asked.
Bernard Williams, a member of the Chamber of Commerce who operates Care Furniture Company Ltd, was livid.
"Something has to be done to address this problem," said Williams as he stopped his car along Beckford Street where large piles of fly-infested garbage lay across the street.
Next to the filth, vendors called out to passing shoppers, trying to secure sales. They seemed oblivious to the raw sewage mixed with mud running along Beckford and Princess streets where a mother sat feeding her baby.
Strong stench from the sewage forced a customer to make a hasty retreat from a section of Beckford Street where a soup vendor prepared to share a cup of soup.
In the middle of it all, Mark Azan stepped out from his store – Azan's – and looked at the road, frustration etched on his face.
"My family has been operating at this location for more than 50 years, but I have lost hope," said Azan. "I have decided to call it a day. I am closing down. I cannot fight this lawlessness and indiscipline anymore."
The vocal businessman, like several of his colleagues, said enough was enough.
"During the holidays, the situation became so bad we had to use carts to transport the goods from our store," said Heffes in reference to the raw sewage running on the streets.
On Princess Street, workers employed to Gassan Azan were clearing large piles of mud in front of Sweet Tings, Azan's bakery and pastry outlet.
"This is what the businessman has to be doing. If is the authorities him waiting on, nothing would happen," said one of the workers.
One businessman who asked not to be named said: "Officials say they are serious, but when you look downtown, indiscipline is everywhere. The Jamaica Public Service, they come and pressure who are legitimate operators while illegal service is widely used among vendors."
He said that the illegal practice has left legitimate operators worried that a fire would break out at anytime from a short circuit. (Observer)

"I feel the magic that our time has traced, make a point of it in every place."
We are wearing Varsity Letterman jackets. An "H" over our hearts. Big H and Little h. Stoned. Conquered. Giving each other blowbacks outside a petrol station. I don`t think Dave had ever smoked before. You and Dave have your hair like James Dean. Dave looks like James Dean. Roddy Frame in denim. It was a reunion in University holidays. It seemed strange to see you in London. Your accent as off as mine in Leeds. We were heading to a New Year`s Eve party. We sang this the whole way there. It became a Folk round and then a sea shanty. Jackets when the weather really called for a coat. A quarter bottle of Night Train in the pocket. Sure was a mean wine. Thunderbird in the freezer, tasting foul at anything above zero. We taught ourselves to drink vodka neat so that we could keep moving.
We were the "At Alls", as in no chance at all of copping off. We`d dance around my room in the house we shared, badminton and broken tennis rackets for guitars. Hairbrush for a microphone. Postcards, Matisse, Degas, ballerinas and blue, black and white movie stills, Clara Bow, Louise Brooks, Beatrice Dalle tacked to the wall. Taste borrowed from girlfriends, page-boy brunettes and pouts. Lines from songs taped from John Peel joined poems culled from Waterstone`s carrier bags, scratched into the desk. Ships at a distance have every man`s wish on board. The past is a foreign country they do things differently there. Except they rarely do. It takes effort and intelligence to change. Rupert Everett, Colin Firth. Lashes so long they belong on a girl. Treacherous Liverpool John, Wirral-born fake scouser, would come in and take the piss, try to catch us out, knowing that we`d never get further than the dust jacket on book that didn`t revolve around drink, drugs, and sex. Jay McInerney, Bret Easton Ellis, Jim Carroll. The rules of attraction. Disappear here. In love with the idea of "On The Road". Bukowski and Hunter Thompson for heroes.
You`d try on my second-hand hats while I`d attempt to fix, with a large gold can of Elnet, my "Leo Sayer" into something more fashionable. Next door, Al would be working on his `Nam collage. A disturbing vision of deep cover, napalm fires, amputees and soldiers soiling themselves. You`d ask me questions like, "When you`re talking to a girl, what`s the first thing you check out?" and I`d say "Her shoes".
Obsessive compulsive disorder was just a joke then, in the days before Amsterdam, the nights before New York. Before the realization that, once you were past reception, The Priory really is a mental institution. Stark grey walls and functional furniture. Everything had to be an even number, and we`d keep you belching, claiming a miscount, until you were sick. Al cried when we left you there.
On the Tube you ask the other passengers if they mind if we smoke, and Keith gets out a bong.
Nothing was impossible, but we liked to make believe it was. Stack the odds against our favour.

This guitar lesson teaches the basics of pinch harmonics, also referred to as artificial harmonics or Squealies. The technique is used by tons of players including Zakk Wylde, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Billy Gibbons and more. It's relatively simple and once you get the hang of it you will most likely be able to add them to your playing at will without really thinking about it much. Feel is the important thing here, it may take a little while to get it, but once you learn what it feels like it becomes a very easy technique to do.

Septentrion: Exploring the Arctic Circle
Jan 25 - Mar 8, 2013
Septentrion explored the work of seven participants of the Arctic Circle Artist Residency in Svalbard, Norway. This residency brings together artists, scientists, architects, and interdisciplinary collaborators annually for a three-week assembly of innovation in an unlikely setting aboard the tall ship Antigua. What transpired was a deluge of cross-cultural immersion and inspiration from both a diverse team of collaborators and a transcendent location unlike most individuals will ever witness. With photography and video, sculpture and prints, Septentrion offered a pioneering peek into the northern extremity of the world in which we live.

We're heading south and it's definitely getting warmer. Almost anything would be warmer than where we've been! We were at Cloudland Canyon State Park and at 14 degrees it was icy cold so 40 degrees was like a summer day...
Kolomoki Mounds State Park is located in Early county in southwestern Georgia. Not only are there 5 miles of hiking trails but also a great temple mound that stands 57 feet tall. The park itself is pretty flat but those 76 stair steps make quiet a climb to the top of that mound!
We practically had the whole park to ourselves. I guess it's still too cold for most people to be out but really once you get moving you warm up.
We found 6 Geocaches while visiting Kolomoki. I loved the creative containers and the fact that they were pretty easy to find. I don't like it when you have to do a little (sometimes a lot of) bushwacking to get to the cache.
There was also a small cemetery located in the park. I love old cemeteries...Weird I know.
Take a walk and check out a State Park near you!

Mark Mackay
A blazing guitarist, an evocative vocalist and a songwriter steeped in authenticity: At the crossroads of country music and rock and roll is where Mark Mackay makes his stand. Fronting a powerhouse band, he rocks the room with rowdy charm and persuasive conviction.
Headlining festivals, concerts and clubs and opening for country stars like Frankie Ballard, Eli Young Band, Cole Swindell, Tracy Lawrence and Old Dominion, plus legendary rockers The Marshall Tucker Band, 38 Special, Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi) and Orianthi, in a recent 12-month period Mark played 230 shows as Music Connection magazine named him on their annual list of the country's Top 100 National Live Acts
Mark, who grew up south of San Francisco enthralled by country music and trained as a classical pianist, exemplifies a wide screen Western perspective in his songs. With two previous EP's, he now ups the ante in a new eight-song collection.
Between the introspective journeys and boisterous shows, he locates the magic alchemy that defines his artistry. "Touring doesn't make you jaded," Mark professes. "It becomes more fun."

The boys of summer are back! That's right, baseball season begins on Sunday. With summer and grand slams around the corner, here are five things to know so you can hit a home run in the baseball conversation.
Batter up,
The Last Night's Game Team
PS – Do you have burning questions about baseball? Check out our Major League Baseball FAQs. Want more? Tweet or email us with your questions.
Five Things To Know About MLB (Major League Baseball)
- Baseball players are called the boys of summer, but why? Baseball is the only major professional sport that spans the summer and starts and finishes the season in the same calendar year. It's also the longest regular season in professional sports with 162 games.
- MLB is divided into two leagues – NL (National League) and AL (American League). What's the difference? In the NL pitchers bat for themselves. In the AL, pitchers don't hit. They have a designated hitter (a player who only hits, doesn't play a field position) to hit for them.
- Strikeouts are measured by "K's" on the game broadcast and throughout stadium. A forward-facing K means the player struck out swinging (they missed the ball on the third strike). A backwards K means a strikeout looking (i.e. they didn't swing and were called out by the umpire). Photo.
- MLB does not have a salary cap like other professional leagues. Instead they have a competitive balance tax or "luxury tax." Once a team's annual player payroll hits a certain number (this year it's $195 million), they are taxed. The tax was put in place so big market teams (think: New York Yankees) wouldn't sign all of the best players, leaving the small market teams at a competitive disadvantage. Where does the tax money go? Find out here.
- Ones to watch – The defending champions are the Chicago Cubs. (Remember that epic World Series where they beat the Cleveland Indians and broke their 108-year losing streak)? Sports Illustrated predicts a Houston Astros – Chicago Cubs World Series.
- After threatening a boycott, the U.S.A.'s women's hockey team will report to the World Championships on Friday. The team was protesting U.S.A. Hockey's compensation for women's hockey. The two agreed on new terms that include salary raises, performance bonuses and increased efforts to support girls' developmental teams to further the sport.
Sideline stat
- NFL (National Football League) owners voted a resounding 31 - 1 to approve the relocation of the Raiders from Oakland to Las Vegas. It's going to be a long, awkward breakup because the Vegas stadium won't be done until 2020. With no new home, the Raiders will have to play the next few seasons in Oakland.
Coaches' Corner
- What is a grand slam? Yes, a grand slam is a meal at Denny's but in baseball it's when there are runners on all three bases (first, second and third) and the batter hits a home run which equals four runs scored.

Fall can be so predictable and yet such a great season to experiment with new and old trends. Use the foliage as an inspiration to incorporate some surprisingly fashionable colors into your outfit. Bright colors are always a fun way to express yourself and as we move closer to winter you're resisting the urge to be consumed by dark colors. Here are some ideas to get you started.
Neon Yellow & Navy
Take your navy jackets and give them a pop with a neon color undershirt.
Hot Pink & Grey
You'll make a bold and yet feminine statement.
Teal & Black
Pink isn't your thing? Try a making your outfit pop with a cooler shade of color like teal.
Cream & Red
Don't forget about the shoes! If you're a shoe lover you might want to switch into a bright colored pair you'd normally wear in the summer.

The Hunt for Sir Richard
True Adventurer: 50,000
Boat Dock 1[edit]
Treasure 1[edit]Have a girl climb the rope near the beginning then switch to Willie or someone with explosives to bust the windows. Inside is a Treasure.
Take a moment to wander around the area, destroying objects and collecting studs. When you've had your fill, flip the two levers to extend all the awnings. Switch to Elsa and jump up to the rope and work your way along the balconies to the right. You'll find a Key just past the yellow awnings. Take it to the nearby gears and use it to erect a platform that will allow Indy to whip swing to the other side.
Directly north is a little alcove protected by a few vertical bars. Use Indy's fists to break them and retrieve the Key. Operate the gears to raise the bridge for your companions.
Treasure 2[edit]To the right of where you found the Key is another alcove. Destroy the stuff inside and build with the resulting bricks to make a crawlspace. Send a short character through and walk to the left past the lever and into the walkway above the canal to reach a Treasure.
Parcel[edit]Pull the lever near the last Treasure to open the canal gate. Swim through to a new area. Destroy the wooden barrier on the left and flip the switch to lower the lift. Use Indy's whip to pull the Parcel off it's ledge but leave it be for now and ride the lift up and enter the room on the left (punch down the door). Destroy the stuff inside to find the Key and take it to the room on the right to operate the gears which will raise a platform allowing you to move onward. Drop back down and grab the Parcel. Ride the lift back up and work your way to the right. When you come to the gap you can't jump across while holding the Parcel, drop it, hop to the other side and grab it with Indy's whip. Take it to the mailbox on the right side.
Treasure 3[edit]On the far right is a glass encased room. Shatter the glass with a scream or explosive and ride the bike over all the orange cones to collect the Treasure. There are more cones on the left side of the bridge.
Use Elsa or Brody to translate the glyphs and open the big building's front door. Head inside for high adventure!
Destroy the books on the far left bookshelf to reveal a lever that's just itching for someone like you to come along and pull it. Don't disappoint the lever and the lever won't disappoint you. The bookcase will swing around, giving you access to a Box of Stuff you can carry over to one of the green pads.
Working your way around the room clockwise, destroy the stuff next to the statue to reveal the bricks needed to build the missing bits of floor. Push the statue to the right until it's sitting on the orange pad. This will make the Swords available upstairs.
Moving on, you'll find a small alcove. Use Indy's whip to pull the ring and reveal a turnstile switch. Rotate it to create a staircase.
By the window in the back is another Box of Stuff. Take it to a green pad.
Continuing to the right, build with the bricks by the bookcase ladder then push the ladder to the right. Climb up to the top of the shelf to grab another Box of Stuff. Take it to one of the green pads and head upstairs.
Have someone translate the glyphs upstairs for the final Box of Stuff. Take it downstairs to the green pad and build with all the bricks.
Treasure 4[edit]Head back upstairs and grab one of the Swords. Follow the wall to the left and hop over the railing and onto the ledge. Chuck the Sword at one of the two gate supports to destroy it. Run back for the other Sword and use it on the remaining support. The gate will open and the Treasure will be yours for the taking.
Treasure 5[edit]Make your way to the upper level on the opposite side using the handholds above the stain glass window. Blowup the three silver panels on the wall to reveal the code: III, VII, V. Build with the nearby bricks to complete the ladder, push it to the right and climb up. Knock on the door with a soldier and the wall will open up. Take care of the guys inside and destroy the console on the right for the bricks to rebuild the one on the left. Step on each of the three pads until you match the code on the wall and a Treasure will appear.
Use Indy's whip to bring the chandelier down and make a hole in the floor. Drop down the hole into the next area.
Catacombs 1[edit]
Treasure 6[edit]
You'll see it behind the gate to the left. Find five hidden skeletons to unlock it.
- Hiding in one of the coffins near the beginning. Be aware of spear traps.
- Down the passage a bit, pull out the coffin to the right. Inside is another skeleton.
- Pray at the Thuggee statue to reveal another.
- Past the rat pit. Destroy the wooden gate on the right to unearth another.
- Dive underwater (hold the Use Ability/Tool Button) in the Catacombs 2 area and touch all three valves to release the last skeleton.
Find the Shovel in one of the coffins then dig at the glowing patch for a Box of Stuff. Now take the Box of Stuff to the green pad and build with the bricks to make a fan. Pull out the nearby big, gray box thing and stand on the button on its top to activate the fan. The fan will clear a bunch of dust off the wall revealing glyphs. Have Elsa translate them. The wall will crumble away.
Have Indy jump over the rat pit. Grab a Torch and lead Elsa across. Have her hang on the rope while Indy pulls the lever.
Catacombs 2[edit]
In the next area have Elsa hop up onto the ledge and work her way to the right using the handholds. Indy should follow on his own. Have her hang on the rope while Indy climbs the two raised platforms. Whip the spider web out of the way and the whip again to pull the switch. You can now reach the two levers. Pull both simultaneously to exit to the next area.
Treasure 7[edit]Have a girl pull the rope then quickly send a short character through the crawlspace. Switch to someone with a Shovel and dig through the floor to reach the button. Stand on it to open the gate protecting the Treasure.
Catacombs 3[edit]
Use Indy's whip to pull down the hanging box. Push it onto one of the floor switches. Next, push the big coffin all the way to the right and use it as a stepping stone so Elsa can reach the ledge on the right with the other box. Push it off the ledge and onto the other floor switch. Have Indy and Elsa stand on either switch and a new coffin will float up from the floor.
Treasure 8[edit]Push the coffin down and to the left so a girl can reach the ledge on the left. Switch to Indy and whip swing across to the Treasure.
Push this coffin to the back and have Elsa jump to the ledge in the back.
Boat Dock 2[edit]
New area! Yay! Boss fight! Double Yay!
Give the big bad a few smacks and he'll retreat in a motor boat. Hop in one of the other boats and give chase. Ram him a few times and he'll retreat to the island in the middle of the water.
Treasure 9[edit]Ram 10 buoys for a Treasure.
Treasure 10[edit]Head to the area across the water to the right. Jump up to the crane and have someone with a Wrench fix it. Hop inside and lift your partner up to the nearby rooftop. Switch to a girl and use the handholds on the two boxes to get up to the box on the right. Hang on the right box until the left one is high enough to use to jump to the roof of the structure housing the Treasure. Use an explosive to open the silver cap and drop inside for the Treasure. Blow up the other silver cap to exit.
Head to the island and give stupid a few more licks. Again, he'll retreat in his boat. Chase him down and ram him a few more times and he'll park by the big ship's propeller. Head on over, hop on his boat, give him a few more smacks and that's all she wrote for this stage.

Socioeconomic differences in cardiovascular diseases are a health risk that has not been prevented to this day. Previous studies have shown that lower socioeconomic status increases the risk of sudden cardiac events. However, the mechanisms explaining this are still unclear.
– The increased left ventricular mass of the heart and poorer diastolic function increase the risk of contracting or dying of cardiovascular diseases. They are also both independent prognostic factors for a sudden cardiac event, says researcher, MD Tomi Laitinen from the Research Centre of Applied and Preventive Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Turku.
Previous studies on adults have shown that lower socioeconomic status is linked with higher left ventricular mass and poorer diastolic function. The impact of socioeconomic status in childhood on these predictive markers of morbidity and mortality in cardiovascular diseases has not been previously studied with longitudinal data.
The study is part of the national Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study coordinated by the Research Centre of Applied and Preventive Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Turku. The study followed 1,872 persons who were 3–18-year-old at the beginning of the study for 31 years. The participants' socioeconomic status in childhood was measured by their parents' income. The researchers studied the connection between the subjects' socioeconomic status and the ultrasound-detected left ventricular mass and diastolic function of the heart.
– A lower socioeconomic status in childhood was connected with higher left ventricular mass and poorer diastolic function in adulthood. The connection remained, even though the traditional cardiovascular risk factors in childhood and adulthood, and the subjects' socioeconomic status in adulthood were considered, says Laitinen.
The study supports the understanding that, already in childhood, the differences in parents' socioeconomic status create the basis for differences in cardiovascular diseases in adulthood.
The study was published in the esteemed JAMA Pediatrics journal.

Danish furniture manufacturer focuses on consumers' eco awareness. A new sustainable furniture series, an eco label and greener production methods aim to strengthen the position of Mogens Hansen Møbler A/S in two key export markets. The strategy stood to the test at the biggest Nordic furniture show, Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair.
After 55 years on the Danish market, furniture manufacturer Mogens Hansen Møbler A/S (Mogens Hansen Furniture, ed.)has developed a new, green business model aimed at building a sustainable furniture collection. This green transformation was developed with support from the Fund for Green Business Development and the Central Denmark Region and is scheduled to be fully implemented by 2020. The goal is to facilitate access to select export markets, target a new and younger audience, create green Danish jobs and generate added turnover.
In an effort to boost its growth potential, Mogens Hansen Furniture will be launching two new designs along with two models from the existing collection made of FSC-labelled wood, eco-friendly foam and bio-degradable upholstery fabric – materials that are expected to secure the important Nordic Ecolabel in spring 2016. Going forward, all the company's new products will be based on sustainable principles, and the long-term goal is to apply these principles to all aspects of the production, giving all the company's collections a green profile.
The Nordic Ecolabel
– It's quite demanding to qualify for the Nordic Ecolabel – not least with upholstered furniture, because it involves so many different materials, says CEO and owner Michael Hansen, who is second generation in the company founded by his father, Mogens Hansen, in 1961.
– The transition process is both costly and labour-intensive, but we expect to see a good return on our investment, as the new sustainable concept will give us a strong position in export markets such as Norway and Sweden. We also expect the new, green profile – along with new designs – to appeal to a new and younger customer segment, says Michael Hansen.
According to Michael Hansen, recent studies show that almost one in four Danes goes specifically for sustainable products, and that an even bigger share of Danish consumers reward manufacturers that take responsibility for the environment and consider future generations.
Qualifying for the contract market
Sofas and chairs from Mogens Hansen Furniture are found in thousands of Danish homes – and in the future, Michael Hansen hopes to see the company's furniture in many public settings.
– We aim to play a role in furnishing hotels and corporate HQs. We pursue this ambition in part by developing a collection with a more stringent design expression, but the green angle is important there too, says Michael Hansen and highlights the eco-friendly Waterlily foam, which is produced without CFC gases, and which is also flame-retardant and easy to recycle.
– To be a serious player in the contract market, we need to live up to the special requirements in this field, Michael Hansen emphasizes.
– As one of the few Danish furniture makers, we have maintained production in our own factory in Denmark. Most of our suppliers are Danish too. That makes us agile and ensures that our production is genuinely sustainable, says Michael Hansen. In 2011 Mogens Hansen cut the ribbon for a brand-new factory outside the city of Aarhus and reported a healthy increase in turnover in 2015.
Design optimization
The green strategy is one of several growth instruments that Michael Hansen applies in order to reach new markets. Another instrument is design optimization.
– So far, the design and development of our classic sofa models has mostly been an in-house effort, but now we're bringing in competent external designers too as a way of adding innovation, says Michael Hansen, who has engaged in a creative dialogue with the Aarhus-based designer Anders Nørgaard and industrial designer Tom Stepp, who have both created a wide range of furniture designs for well-established furniture manufacturers over the years. Another external contributor is Kai Kristiansen, one of the last furniture designers from the golden age of Danish furniture design who is still active. Furniture by these three external designers forms the core of the company's current push in the Scandinavian market.
– We have a close and inspiring collaboration with furniture designer Anders Nørgaard – from the draft to the finished product. He has spent a lot of time at the factory and been able to discuss ideas with our workers face to face. Something that's only possible because we've maintained our production in Denmark, Michael Hansen points out.
Strategic sales partnership
– Our first major export push will be in Stockholm, where we exhibit at the biggest furniture fair in the Nordic region, the Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair. We share a stand at the fair with our strategic partner dk3, which makes tables and other types of furniture. With a shared network of sales reps in Norway and Sweden, we hope to improve our visibility and impact, and in the longer term we also plan to approach markets outside Scandinavia, says an optimistic Michael Hansen.
Mogens Hansen Møbler A/S was founded in 1961 by Mogens Hansen. In 2003, his son Michael Hansen took over the reins.
The Fund for Green Business Development, which existed from 2013 to 2015, was a fund under the Danish Business Agency, which supported Danish companies' efforts to improve the environment, enhance competitiveness, generate exports and create new jobs in Denmark.
The fund awarded grants totalling DKK 59.7 million to 33 projects, including :
• Product innovation and redesign
• Developing green business models
• Promoting sustainable materials

Brioni Appoints Nina-Maria Nitsche as Its New Creative Director
Following Justin O'Shea's brief tenure.
As we reported last fall, designer Justin O'Shea parted ways with high-end fashion house Brioni after only six months of time with the Italian brand. With a frenzy of fashion weeks upon us, Brioni has now named Nina-Maria Nitsche as the company's creative director. "Ever since meeting her in 1996, I have been impressed by her creative approach," says Fabrizio Malverdi, Brioni's new chief executive. "Her point of view will allow the brand's core values to prosper and yet inject a contemporary dialogue that will enable Brioni to evolve into the future." In the past, Nina-Maria Nitsche has worked with Maison Martin Margiela, Vetements and other high-profile luxury outfits.

ANZICS CTG Endorsed Study
A phase III multicentre blinded randomised controlled clinical non-inferiority trial of cryopreserved platelets vs. conventional liquid-stored platelets for the management of post-surgical bleeding. The cryopreserved vs. liquid platelets trial
Study Description
For logistic reasons and in order to use this scarce resource optimally, liquid-stored platelets with a shelf-life of 5 days are not stored in smaller hospitals. Cryopreservation in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) is a promising technology that would allow smaller hospitals to provide platelet transfusions, reduce overall wastage, and possibly produce better haemostasis.
The aim of this phase III clinical trial is to assess the efficacy, safety and cost effectiveness of cryopreserved platelets, compared to conventional liquid-stored platelets, for treatment of surgical bleeding.
Approximately 808 cardiac surgical patients at high risk of platelet transfusion will be recruited. Of these, it is expected that 202 will be transfused study platelets. A maximum of 3 units of study platelets will be given, after which open-label liquid stored platelets will be used.

Dr. Adrianne Sebastian, ND
Our bodies possess an inherent wisdom to heal, with appropriate care and sufficient time. Unfortunately, the demands of modern life deprioritize rest and overemphasize quick-fixes. With the constant need to be productive, we lose sight of, and trust in, our body's capacity to heal.
I work with individuals to facilitate balance — between the need to get things done and listening to the body's needs. It is possible to incorporate natural tools and techniques into your day that are accessible and affordable. It is possible to be in control of your health and tap into nature wherever you may be.
I am excited to begin this journey with you.
My first medicines were the home remedies my lola (grandma) created in our kitchen to prevent colds and stave off fevers. These medicines were immensely powerful, and often the only forms of healthcare we could afford — a situation many families in our community faced.
Growing up in the vibrant migrant communities of the Bay Area, California, I began to see patterns in chronic diseases that affected communities of color alongside a disproportionate access to health care and preventative health.
In wanting to address the gaps in our current health care model, I pursued medicine and alternative healthcare. I found Naturopathic Medicine to be the bridge that connects the wisdom of eastern medicine with the technology of western medicine.
Health is more than the individual and their symptoms. Health is determined by environment, lived experience, generational trauma, the systems they survived.
As a primary care physician, I am committed to working with individuals from all walks of life and from every generation. I am especially passionate about working with LGBTQ+ youth, activists, community organizers, and busy families.
When I'm not practicing medicine I am organizing with Migrante Portland and the International Migrants Alliance, grassroots organizations uplifting the rights and welfare of migrants, refugees, and immigrants locally and globally.
Doctora Adrianne is a naturopathic doctor licensed by the Oregon Board of Naturopathic Physicians. She completed her five-year training at the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon, the oldest accredited Naturopathic medical school in North America.
During her training as a primary care physician at NUNM, she completed clinical shifts in gastrointestinal health, transgender health, cardiopulmonary medicine, endocrinology and community health with focuses in botanical medicine, homeopathy, physical medicine and mental health.
She studied classical homeopathy at the New England School of Homeopathy (NESH), and Shen Hammer Pulse diagnosis with ShenHammerPDX.
She participated in a medical brigade with Natural Doctors International (NDI) in Nicaragua, volunteered at St Francis Shelter in Vietnam, and worked with the Save Our Schools Network in the Philippines.
She received a B.A. in Feminist Studies and a B.S. in Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of California Santa Cruz.
