helps families, schools, and churches create safer digital environments. This site is all about protecting your children...and making you aware as parents what exactly the dangers of technology are. "Protect young eyes" review's at least 66 different social media apps that young people are using on their tablets, computers, kindle and phones and other types of connections to the internet.
They make it clear that--
(1) there's no such thing as privacy in any app,
(2) any app that allows people to upload content is always going to have a very dark side, and
(3) any app that is difficult to monitor will have greater risk of abuse by teens.

Parents Love Bark Parental Controls (We Do, Too!)
28 Sep Parents Love Bark Parental Controls (We Do, Too!)
Posted at 19:57h in Parenting by Chris McKenna
What is the Bark Monitoring Solution?
In their words, "Bark is an online safety solution powered by advanced algorithms that proactively alerts parents to potential dangers, including cyberbullying, sexting, drug use, internet predators, depression and suicidal thoughts – and provides expert recommendations on how to talk about issues as a family."
There are parental control solutions that control WHAT kids see. These include filters like Mobicip or Covenant Eyes which both prevent pornography from being viewed. BARK is different because it tells parents HOW their kids are using popular apps like Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and others.
That's right – it's an app that let's you know what's going on INSIDE Snapchat and Instagram. Kik and Twitter. And, that's worth gold. learn more-

5 Reasons Why Social Media is Not Smart for Middle School Kids
by Marilyn Evans: | Jan 18, 2018
It was disheartening when I read the stats: 7.5 million Facebook users in the U.S. are under 13! I may have even shed tears when I discovered that 5 million of those kids are under the age of 10! Parents, it's time we talked about why social media is not smart for... Read more- https://protectyoungminds.org/2018/01/18/social-media-not-smart-middle-school-kids/
Keep Kids Safe: 9 Ways Porn and Predators will Target Kids in 2018
by Kristen Jenson and Marilyn Evans | Jan 11, 2018 |
By default, every device that connects kids to the internet also connects kids to porn. It's that simple —and it's that infuriating! To keep kids safe in the digital age, parents need to stay one step ahead of trends and know exactly what they are up against.
In this post we'll highlight 9 major culprits that should be on every parent's radar in 2018!
1. Apps that let porn slip past parental controls
In 2018 so many kids are growing up with a device in their hands from the time they leave the cradle.
In response to a question about the age recommendations for Amazon's Fire HD 8 Kids Edition, one mom enthusiastically replied, "My eleven month old loves it, if he breaks it it will be replaced [free of charge], and it is saving my phone!"
Whether it's a tablet at age two (not that we're recommending it) or a smartphone at twelve, many parents believe the myth that if a browser has not been installed (or parental controls have been set) kids will be safe from all internet dangers. But not so! Read More- https://protectyoungminds.org/2018/01/11/keep-kids-safe-porn-predators-target-kids-2018/

Steps to Protecting Our Children from the Gay Agenda
The gay movement intends to capture the next generation. We need to take action to protect our children! The gay agenda surrounds us daily. President Obama's recently declared his support for gay marriage Hollywood is pushes for gay marriage in films like Brokeback Mountain" "Milk" to TV series like "The Perfect Family" X-Men directors are they using diabolical subterfuge to shove gay propaganda down the throats of our children. While homosexuals are only 1-2% of the population, they account for as many as 40% of all child molestations in the U.S. The Journal of the American Medical Association reported:
50 percent of male AIDS victims reported having sex with an adult male by the age of 16.
20 percent of male AIDS victims had sex with an adult male by age 10. Read more- http://heartofwisdom.com/blog/boycott-companies-that-sponsor-gays-on-tv/
Why the most realistic solution to Schools Trans Indoctrination is withdrawing your kids.
By Margot Cleveland August 30,2017
Last week brought news of three troubling incidents entangling children as young as five in the ever-sprawling transgender agenda. First, as The Federalist's Joy Pullmann detailed, a California charter school, Rocklin Academy, began the school year with the kindergarten teacher reading students a book about transgenderism.
After story-time ended, a male classmate suffering from gender dysphoria changed clothing and reappeared in a "gender reveal" as his "real" self—a "girl." Parents only learned of the "lesson" when their confused and upset five-year-olds returned home that day. The parents showed up in force at their school board meeting to chastise the administrators for failing to inform them of the planned events or offer them the opportunity to opt their children out.

How to Talk to Your Children About Homosexuality
By Focus on the Family
Homosexuality has become increasingly visible in our culture, moving from acceptance and normalization to celebration and promotion. This is happening in every area of life, from education to entertainment, from the media to the marketplace, and from cities and counties to courts and churches.
Rapid Changes
Think about the tremendous changes we've seen, just since today's Senior High students were born: 1997 was the year comedienne Ellen DeGeneres "came out" and was featured on the cover of Time magazine. 2004 was the year "same-sex marriage" was ordered by the Supreme Court of Massachusetts, the first state to redefine marriage. "Glee" premiered on television in 2009, with a storyline focusing on a male character identifying as gay. 2012 was when President Barak Obama finally "evolved" on the issue of marriage, fully supporting its redefinition to include two men or two women. And today? Read more- https://www.focusonthefamily.com/socialissues/sexuality/how-to-talk-to-your-children-about-homosexuality/how-to-talk-to-your-children-about-homosexuality
What can we Do?... Stand up!...Be counted!
By Terry Trudel
What can we Do?- You will notice in the articles above that there is not a lot of help for people who want to change the indoctrination that their children are receiving. Some of it covered under Washington State Law.
On a State level-
1.) Sign up with a Christian watch organization like Family Policy Insitute of Washington https://www.fpiw.org/ to be notified of laws that will effect you or those you love.
Email, write, call your legislators and share your opinions. Desires, and thoughts over every law that causes you concern. Remember a law that Benefits the L.G.B.T. agenda spells loss of freedoms for you as a Christian.
2.) Talk to your pastors help them to realize the power for good as every Christian does his or her civic duty in supporting the democracy we have.
3.) Organize someone in your church who will alert the other Christians to speak out to Legislators.
Band together.. There is power in numbers.
On a local Level
A. ) In regard to- Implementation of the policy mandated by Obama's executive order. We are opposed to this as it is not consistent with longstanding cultural values of privacy and safety.
B.) In regard to- Mandating that all students use the bathroom and locker room facilities that correspond to their biological sex. We do not think this is the best solution as it does not recognize the unique status of transgender students. We feel the best solution is: to provide a separate bathroom/locker room facility for transgender students.
1.) Write the school superintendent and all school board members asking them to change their existing policy's and procedures which allows transgender students to use the facility that corresponds to their stated gender identity.
2.) Attend School board meeting and express your dissatisfaction with the current policy and procedure.
3.) Speak to your pastor about alerting members of your congregation to this issue. Let us be salt and light in our community.
4.) Pray for resolution of this issue through discussion and recognition of its complex nature and for meeting the need of all students
5.) Consider conducting prayer walks at our schools and the school administration building on fourth street.
6.) familiarize yourself by reviewing the information on transgender / homosexual issues on this website... click on our New's, media, and research and resources pages for articles, videos and resources.
Responsibility: We all share the responsibility for our culture and what we leave for future generations. When the culture is determined by a small number of people so that safety and privacy are at risk.. we need to speak up so our voices can be heard.
The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of the government in the next.
--Abraham Lincoln

The cases before us raise questions which go to the roots of our concepts of American criminal jurisprudence: the restraints society must observe consistent with the Federal Constitution in prosecuting individuals for crime.
To outsiders of the legal profession, the 33-word sentence above by Chief Justice Earl Warren may appear distant and unfamiliar. It certainly lacks the flourish of more memorable introductions, such as "We the People" or even "Four scores and seven years ago." However, if books shouldn't be judged by their covers, then Supreme Court decisions definitely shouldn't be judged by their introductions, for the words that flowed from that opening sentence formed one of the U.S. Supreme Court's more memorable judicial decisions.
These words opened Miranda v. Arizona, the 1966 Supreme Court case that introduced the Miranda warning into the American lexicon. The following is an overview of Miranda v. Arizona and the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
Your Fifth Amendment Miranda Rights at a Glance
The so-called "Miranda warning," which has been paraded through countless movies and T.V. crime dramas, basically warns people in police custody prior to an interrogation of their constitutional rights:
The sanction for failing to deliver a Miranda warning prior to a custodial interrogation is quite severe. It raises an irrebuttable presumption that statements made by a suspect during such an interrogation were involuntary. And, because the Fifth Amendment protects individuals from being "compelled in a criminal case to be a witness against himself," a court will generally suppress a defendant's statements obtained during such an interrogation at trial.
Miranda v. Arizona, the Fifth Amendment, and the Dickerson Case
Despite the seemingly entrenched position that the Miranda warning holds in our legal and popular culture, Dickerson v. United States, a case heard by the United States Supreme Court during the October 1999 term, threatened to unseat Miranda's 30-year reign.
In Dickerson, the defendant Dickerson confessed to being the driver of a getaway car in a series of bank robberies. However, the District Court suppressed the defendant's confession because it found that Dickerson made the statement "in police custody, in response to police interrogation, and without the necessary Miranda warnings."
On appeal, one question before the U.S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals was whether 18 U.S.C.A. § 3501, a post-Miranda statute enacted by Congress as part of a larger bill in 1968, was constitutional. This statute states, in part, that "[i]n any criminal prosecution brought by the United States . . . a confession . . . shall be admissible in evidence if it is voluntarily given." If this statute is constitutional, it would render the Miranda requirements for admissibility of statements void.
The Fourth Circuit made the following findings:
Based on these findings, the Fourth Circuit held that "the admissibility of confessions in federal court is governed by § 3501, rather than the judicially created rule of Miranda."
Miranda Survives
On June 26, 2000, the U.S. Supreme Court reaffirmed the Miranda decision. In Dickerson v. U.S., the Supreme Court held that Miranda, "being a constitutional decision of th[e] Court, may not be in effect overruled by an Act of Congress, ..." The Court also declined to overrule Miranda itself, and declared "that Miranda and its progeny in this Court govern the admissibility of statements" made after an arrest.

Use Your Miranda Rights: Contact a Defense Attorney
While you've probably heard the Miranda warnings over and over again in television shows, don't let that take away from their significance. They've been, and continue to be, strongly rooted in the criminal justice system and the failure to provide them could result in the removal of evidence against you. Exercise your rights and learn more about other protections in the criminal justice system by contacting a criminal defense attorney today.
Contact a qualified criminal lawyer to make sure your rights are protected.

Arsenal booked their place in a third consecutive FA Women's Continental League Cup final with a 2-1 win over Manchester City at Meadow Park.
Vivianne Miedema got the Gunners off to the perfect start before Danielle van de Donk doubled their advantage just before half time, helped by an uncharacteristic error from City keeper Ellie Roebuck.
After Ellen White had missed a penalty Gemma Bonner did get the visitors back into the game with a close-range finish on the hour. But it wasn't enough for City, who failed to make the final for the first time since 2015.
City made the faster start, Lauren Hemp and White forcing Manuela Zinsberger into a fine double stop inside five minutes.
But it was Arsenal who struck first, Miedema capitalising on a mistake from Bonner, before twisting past Steph Houghton and firing into the far corner.
The visitors had chances to equalise but were undone by a dreadful mistake at the other end. This time Miedema was the provider, driving into the City box before laying the ball off to Van de Donk.
The midfielder's shot from the edge of the box was tame, but Roebuck somehow allowed it to squirm in.
Roebuck did her best to atone with two fine second-half saves to deny Miedema and Mead, as City fought back.
White was given a golden chance to get them back into the game after Leonie Maier had fouled Hemp in the box, but Zinsberger guessed correctly to save her spot-kick. The reprieve was short-lived for Arsenal, however, as from the resulting corner Bonner poked home.
City pushed hard for an equaliser but rarely seriously worried Zinsberger, as the Gunners held on to reach the final.

She was 11, shy and looked obviously very scared when I found her sitting on the floor of my living room with her aunt, who had brought her all the way from a village near Sargodha to work. Her father had died leaving 12 children, a wife and an old mother behind with no source of income. Being older than the five younger brothers she had no choice but to quit school and start working, in order for her brothers to keep going to school and to keep the stove of her household burning. On the pleas of her aunt, I employed her to babysit my son while I was at work. With a small bag containing her few belongings she came to stay with us and slowly became a part of our family. A year later when we moved to UAE, she went back with her aunt. This is Sonia.
A few years later when I was visiting my parents in the summer and had a six month old baby, my parents' housemaid had brought her younger sister Marya to babysit my son. She was barely 12 and a tiny one full of mischief and ready for a prank at any time. After a few weeks, I left and she went back to her village. Next year when I was planning to visit again, I asked my parents to find Marya again for me, since now my son was a toddler and with all the trips to the bazaar and social events, I needed someone to help me while I was there. She didn't come, but a very sad news came! During the course of that year, she went to work for someone else, got pregnant by their adult cook and aborted her child! Even after so many years, thinking about it gives me shivers. My son is now nearing 12, and to me, he still is a baby. She must have been the same age. No child should have to go through anything like that.
Child labour was not an invention of the Industrial Revolution. Poor children have always started work as soon as their parents could find employment for them. With industrialization, the new factories and mines were hungry for workers and required the execution of simple tasks that could easily be performed by children. The result was a surge in child labour – presenting a new kind of problem that society had to tackle.
Despite centuries of efforts against forcing children to enter the workforce across much of the developed world, internationally, child labour still is a major problem. The most horrific and widespread child labour practices today are seen in Africa and Southern and Western Asia.According to Maplecroft's Child Labour Index, Pakistan ranks among the ten worst countries, with children being forced into backbreaking labour.
As per the United States Department of Labour report, nearly 13% of Pakistani children accounting for 2,449,480 individuals between the ages of 10 to 14 are child labourers. 76% of these children work in the agricultural sector involving activities like working in crop fields, fishing and shrimp harvesting and processing. A large number of children are also engaged in restaurants, tea stalls, transportation, and garbage scavenging. The glass bangle industry, carpet weaving, coal mining, brick kilns, and the automotive industry also employ Pakistani children. According to ILO, poverty is the single major factor responsible for the high prevalence of child labour in the country. With 17.2% of the population living below poverty line, families are often forced to send their children to work to sustain the family.
The most common kind of child labour is agricultural or domestic work for the family. While children can benefit from a reasonable level of participation in household chores/activities and derive a sense of self-worth from their work on behalf of their families, all too often work for the family demands far too much of them. It may require them to work excessively long hours that keep them from attending school and can take too great a toll on their developing bodies.
Much of the work for the family within the home is done by girls, and most of the hazards faced by working boys are faced by girls too. Yet girls have extra problems of their own to face: from the sexual pressures of employers to exclusion from education. According to ILO, 56 per cent of the 10- to 14-year-olds currently estimated to be working in the developing world are boys. Yet if we were able to measure the numbers of girls doing unregistered work as domestic servants, or work at home that liberates other family members to take up paid employment, the figures would show more female child labourers than male. Girls also work longer hours on average than boys. This is especially true of girls who carry a double workload – who hold down a job outside the home but must still fulfil their domestic duties on their return.
The most vulnerable and exploited children of all – as well as the most difficult to protect – may well be those in domestic service. They are often poorly paid or not paid at all; their terms and conditions are entirely at the whim of their employers and take no account of their legal rights; and they are deprived of schooling, play and social activity, not to mention emotional support from friends and family. What is more, they are vulnerable to physical and sexual abuse.
The isolation of children in domestic service also makes it difficult to establish reliable estimates of their numbers around the world. Bonded child labour occurs mainly, though not exclusively, in South Asia, where children, often only eight or nine years old, are pledged by their parents to factory owners or their agents in exchange for very small loans. Their lifelong servitude never succeeds in even reducing the debt.
No social sector can escape responsibility.All over the world, children are found to be doing industrial or plantation labour in hazardous conditions. The physical risks to these children – from dangerous chemicals or from faulty machinery, for example – are often more evident than the hazards to their emotional and social development, which are nonetheless profound.
The industries involving children come in all shapes and sizes, from the leather industry in the Naples region of Italy to the brick-making industries of Colombia and Peru, which can involve children as young as eight.
The numbers of children exploited by plantation agriculture across the world may be as great as those involved in industry — and the dangers associated with their work no less appalling. In Brazil's sugar plantations, for example, children cut cane with machetes, at constant risk of mutilation. In some areas, children make up a third of the workforce and are involved in over 40 per cent of work-related accidents. In Nepal, children work on tea estates for wages so low that they often need to work 14 hours a day.
Street work can be cruel and hazardous for children, endangering their physical and psychosocial development and often their lives. Most of these children struggle at legitimate work on the street for their own or their families' survival. They shine shoes, wash and guard cars, carry luggage, hawk flowers and trinkets of every imaginable kind, collect recyclable junk and find a thousand other ingenious ways to make a little money. The vast majority of them return to their homes in shanty towns and squatter settlements each night: these are children on the streets, but not of them.
As the world strives to achieve the elimination of child labour by 2025, on this World Day Against Child Labour, let's join forces to end child labour by promoting and enhancing education; building on national and international legislation and improving enforcement; empowering the poor; mobilizing society; and campaigning for companies to take greater responsibility for their actions and those of their subcontractors.

How to Find the Perfect Postpartum Pants
So I'm sure you've seen that movie, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, in which there is one pair of pants that fits all sizes. That would be so nice if I could find those magical pants that fit me no matter what size I was. I'm sure that is every woman's dream. But I've searched high and low with no luck in finding them.
As you can probably guess, I took my first trip postpartum to buy some new pants. Yes, that is why I am bitter. It was surprisingly difficult to find the perfect postpartum pants as my body had changed a lot after pregnancy.
This is a story about the shock and the motivation that I acquired in the process of finding postpartum pants.
Let's start from the beginning. I was fresh out of the hospital and I looked like I was still pregnant. Not only did I not care what I was wearing, but the maternity pants that I had grown to love for their comfort factor fit perfectly.
The first month home with my newborn, I didn't really go anywhere. I was recovering and sleeping, feeding her, and moping around the house. I wore mainly pajama pants. If I had to go the grocery store or out of the house for any reason, I just threw on my maternity pants. I just kept it simple.
I wore my maternity pants for the entire first month home with my newborn. By the end of the first month, the belly band didn't fit anymore. My pants would slide down and sag so it was getting hard to wear them in public.
Then I got it, the dreaded insinuation that I was pregnant. My newborn was a month and a week old and my hubby was showing her off (as usual) to a man behind a counter. "She is beautiful" he said, "and another one on the way, congratulations!"
"No, no other one" I said calmly, "she is a month old…I just had her."
The man realized what he had said and started apologizing profusely. I could tell he felt like he highly offended me and felt horrible about it. I reassured him that it was an honest mistake and she was a newborn so of course I would look that way. Inside I was shuddering at the thought of my body mistakenly taken for being pregnant and my self-esteem was crushed.
As soon as I could, I raided my closet trying to find a decent pair of pants. I tried on every pair of pants that I own and I couldn't pull a single one above my knees. Defeated, I took a trip to the store.
Trying on pants at the store did not make me feel any better. I tried on multiple pairs of pants in different sizes and styles desperately trying to find something that fit and looked halfway decent.
I had went from a size 10 to a size 14 (and even that was a tight fit because I refused to admit that I had grown 3 sizes). This post-pregnancy mom belly felt like jello and protruded in the lower abdomen. Most of the styles of pants just didn't help my body at all. I searched and searched and finally came to some conclusions on how I was going to find a decent pair of postpartum pants.
These are just a few of the pants that I found that fit well on my post-pregnancy body. Unless you are one of the girls that lose the weight immediately after birth, you can use this guide to find the perfect postpartum pants as well.
#1: Yoga Pants
The yoga pants were great. They were the only pants that looked good and I could still fit my size in those because they had more elasticity and a tie around the waist. I got a black pair and a black pair of Capri style so I could wear them with some shirts I had and they wouldn't look too athletic.
#2: Elastic waist jeans
I bought a pair of jeans as well in my increased size. The jeans were designed with a more elastic waist so they easily fit over the mom belly and looked like they fit everywhere else.
#3: High-waisted pants
I looked at the high-waisted pants as well. No, not the mom jeans, but the high-waisted pants that had a tighter butt area. They fit well because they hid all that belly flab. Matched with a crop top, they would make a great outfit.
#4: Long shorts and capris
The long shorts and capris fit nicely as they took away from the waist area with cargo pockets and cuffed bottoms. The button on the waist fit well as opposed to some with a latch.
#5: Loose tops
This tip doesn't have to do with pants, but if you get a loose top that will cover the mommy tummy, then it will ultimately make whatever pants you are wearing look better.
#6: Tops with designs and patterns on the front
While this doesn't have to do with postpartum pants either, I have found that the tops that have the design in the front and a solid color on the back are the best.
Now, in my experience, there are a few things that I would stay away from, unless you want to be sadly disappointed. These types of pants are the least flattering if you have a mom belly like me.
#1: The same size that you were post-pregnancy
The quickest way to be disappointed on your shopping trip is to try to squeeze into the same size that you were post-pregnancy. Your body has changed and you are most likely a size or two larger. Get over it and try on some larger pants.
#2: Skinny jeans
While you may have looked awesome in skinny jeans, they will probably disappoint you now. I realized that I had to go 3X to 4X above my post-pregnancy size in order to squeeze into some skinny jeans. Then they looked kind of awkward because my hips had grown too.
#3: Short shorts
Like I said, if you are one of the girls that lose all their pregnancy weight immediately, then disregard this message. As for the rest of us, short shorts are just not cute anymore. My thighs and hips are bigger now and the short shorts do not do me any justice.
#4: White Pants
While you may have rocked white pants before having a baby, getting white pants just seems like an accident waiting to happen. Sure, formula may be the same color as the pants. But they will be short-lived once your baby starts eating baby food. Those white pants may look like an art project gone bad.
These were a few types of pants that I did not find appealing. I also stayed away from anything tight including dresses, tank tops, tight shirts, skirts, and tights. At least until I have my post-pregnancy body back.
In conclusion, this shopping trip has got me motivated. I plan on exercising this mom belly off and will hopefully be back to my old size at least in a few months.
The trip definitely inspired me. I am determined to get this mom belly off me!
I started a diet plan and an exercise regime. I am doing exercises that are highly focused around toning my core and the abdominal area. I've cut out all sweets in my diet. I have my full diet and exercise plan coming soon.
So my shopping trip was disappointing and surprising, yet it was also inspiring and motivating. I will stick to my diet and exercise plan, for anything, just to be able to go to the store, try on pants, and smile because I look great.
Oh and also so the next compliment I get can be, "Wow, you just had a baby? I can't tell, you look great" which is, I'm sure, what every mom would love to hear.

Tongue Ulcers
Tongue ulcers are painful or painless excavations of the tongue. They are also known as aphtous ulcers. Some of the tongue ulcers are benign while others are malignant and actually represent the tongue cancer. Only pathohistological examination of the specimens taken during biopsy can help in setting of the correct diagnosis. Tongue ulcers which do not withdraw within specifically determined length of time, especially if the patient is prescribed certain therapy, must be further investigated and biopted because they may point to the onset of a malignant disease.
Tongue ulcers can develop due to chronic irritation or inflammation. They are also symptoms of certain illnesses.
Symptoms and Signs of Tongue Ulcers
The leading symptom is the very presence of the ulcer. It can affect any part of the tongue. The color of the lesion can be pink or intensively red if additional inflammation occurs. Tongue ulcers are basically painless lesions. In some cases, they may bleed.
The patient who is suffering from tongue ulcer may complain about burning sensations on the tongue. He/ she may also have difficulties with chewing and swallowing. This often occurs if ulcers are accompanied with inflammation of the tongue. Prickling or burning sensations can be additionally increased by spicy and sour food. Even too hot food may cause discomfort.
Before the actual ulcer fully develops a person may feel or see small buds on the tongue. These buds will open after a while and develop into a tongue ulcer.
Causes of Tongue Ulcers
Inadequate and vigorous brushing of the teeth can result in tongue ulcers. Even toothpastes or mouthwashes which contain corrosive substances can after certain period of time induce tongue ulcers.
These oral lesions commonly occur in certain conditions such as pemphigus vulgaris and herpes simplex virus infection.
Improper diet including too hot or too spicy food can result in mouth and tongue ulcers.
These lesions commonly affect heavy smokers and alcoholics.
People who are suffering from stomach ulcers are also susceptible to mouth ulcers including tongue ulcers.
And finally, in some people tongue ulcers are malignant tumors of this organ.
Treatment for Tongue Ulcers
The treatment of tongue ulcers is determined by the underlying cause of the disease. Some patients are prescribed glycerin which is applied directly onto the affected part of the tongue. Change of toothpaste or mouthwashes as well as proper brushing of teeth can prevent further ulcers from occurring. In some people taking additional supplements can help with healing of the tongue lesion. One should avoid too hot food as well as too spicy and sour food.
And finally, if tongue ulcers linger in spite of the therapy one should report this to his/ her doctor.

After half a century of research on smoking and PD, where do we go now?

Half a century has passed since the initial report of an inverse association between Parkinson disease (PD) and smoking.1 While counter to the expected health effects of tobacco smoke, this finding has since been confirmed in meta-analyses and pooled analyses comprising data from more than 50 high-quality observational studies2–4 suggesting that smokers are only half as likely as those who have never smoked (never smokers) to develop PD, with an evident dose response as a function of pack-years.
In this issue of Neurology®, Chen et al.5 provide new insight into this association by examining the effects of duration and intensity of smoking independently, rather than combined, as with the pack-years estimation. Their prospective cohort design alleviates most concerns about selection and survival biases that might produce spurious associations but it does not guarantee the absence of residual bias from unmeasured or unknown confounding factors. They observed no association with intensity (daily number of cigarettes) at any duration, suggesting that only the duration component of the pack-years measure previously reported may be responsible for the observed lower PD risk in smokers. They further confirmed prior observations that fewer patients …

We worked with the the Rockpool mixology team to create the second release in our Bartender Series for Qantas: our new Modern Australian Gin is truly a spirit of Australia.
And we're super excited to be releasing it on 3 December, the second anniversary of our launch back in 2013.
Combining red and green Szechuan, quandong, macadamia nuts, fresh grapefruit peel, tangelos and Rosie Glow apples (along with the traditional Four Pillars botanicals), the result is an Asian-inspired Modern Australian gin with lots of softness and spice.
The Asian spices give it a lovely warm mouthfeel (a tiny bit like Neil Perry's famous numbing duck dish from Spice Temple), while the macadamia nuts give it softness and an almost creamy palate.
And finally the fresh apple, grapefruit and tangelos and dry native quandong add fruit and lift.
The fresh and native botanicals are sourced from across Australia: the quandongs are from the Southern Highlands in NSW, the macadamia nuts from northern Queensland, the lemon myrtle from Tasmania, the Rosy Glows from South Australia, and the grapefruits from Cam's garden 200 metres up the road.
Finally, dried botanicals from Asia and Europe make it truly a gin to represent the essence of modern Australia.
Rockpool's bartenders - Ryan, Max and Jacob - were aiming for a gin with nice spicy complexity and mixability, something to create a great G&T, or classic dry martini.
Plus, with that softness and spice it's a great contender in a modern Australian version of the classic Hanky Panky.
You can buy it through our online gin store, our distillery door and Qantas Epiqure - plus you can try it in all Rockpool Group restaurants and bars, and Qantas First lounges.

Interview: January 21, 2014
Although award-winning children's nonfiction author Steve Sheinkin doesn't have an exact recipe when deciding what to write about, he says that he wants the story to be "dramatic and full of tension" and hopefully enlighten readers about a key moment in American history. His earlier works certainly fit the criteria --- he's written about everything from the atomic bomb to Lincoln's grave robbers --- and his latest book, THE PORT CHICAGO 50: Distaster, Mutiny and the Fight for Civil Rights is no exception. Addressing the prejudice that faced African American soldiers during World War II, this fascinating story follows the events stemming from an explosion at the Port Chicago Navy base --- 300 sailors were killed, and 244 men refused to return to work until conditions improved. In this interview, Steve tells us a surprising fact about Jackie Robinson, how his work as a filmmaker influenced his writing style and the most memorable question that a student ever asked him.
Teenreads: What inspired you to write PORT CHICAGO 50?
Steve Sheinkin: I came across the story almost by accident while researching my previous book, BOMB. I knew nothing about the Port Chicago disaster or so-called mutiny, but was instantly fascinated once I started to learn. I jumped at the chance to tell such a dramatic and little-known story.
TR: How did you conduct your research for the book?
SS: There's very little written about this story, and almost nothing from the point of view of the young African American sailors. But one professor at Berkeley, Robert Allen, conducted interviews with many of the sailors in the 1970s. He very generously shared those oral histories with me, and those sources became the most important ones in my research. I also read every word of the 1,400 page mutiny trial transcript --- and most of it was really boring!
TR: What's the most surprising thing that you learned during your research?
SS: I never knew that Jackie Robinson, when he was in the army, had a Rosa Parks style run-in on a bus in 1944. Just like Parks, he refused to move to the back of the bus, and ended up getting in a shouting match with the driver, and then with a white officer who blamed him for the incident. He actually faced court martial charges, but was found not guilty.
TR:You make a case that the Port Chicago events were a civil rights issue. Why do you think that the men of the Port Chicago 50 didn't reach the same level of recognition as Martin Luther King, Jr and Rosa Parks?
SS: Well, that Navy just wanted the story to go away, and the men themselves felt angry and ashamed of being labeled mutineers. Many of them never even told their wives or children about what they had been through during the war. So the story remained largely untold.
TR: The mutiny charges still stand for the men of the Port Chicago 50. Is there anything that interested readers can do to encourage these charges to be dropped?
SS: Yes, there is a community of people in the Bay Area of California who are still working to tell this story and convince the Navy to reverse the mutiny convictions. Folks can find out more by contacting the Friends of Port Chicago at http://portchicagomemorial.org/
TR: You've written about so many interesting historical moments --- Port Chicago, the atomic bomb, Lincoln's grave robbers and more. How do you generally choose your book topics? Do they have to meet certain criteria?
SS: I love to skip around in time, but I'm always looking for stories that are dramatic and full of tension, with great characters. That's the most important thing to me, to tell a great story. But I also want to pick topics that make you think about key issues in American history.
TR: Were you always interested in history and social studies? Did you do well in these classes in school?
SS: No, I didn't really like history until I had a great history teacher, and I think that was in eleventh grade! This teacher presented American history as a series of events and issues to analyze and debate, rather than to simply memorize. I guess I always liked historical tales, like stories of old train robberies and shipwrecks and buried treasure. But I never thought about that as learning.
TR: You've had a lot of interesting jobs in the past --- you've worked at a textbook company and worked as a filmmaker. Have these positions influenced your current writing, at all?
SS: Yes, both textbook writing and filmmaking had big influences. As a textbook writer, I was able to collect all these great stories that textbook editors would never let me use. I also learned how to write really boring books, so I try to do the opposite now. And I use lots of techniques from the world of writing and directing movies. I plot out my books scene by scene, just like a screenwriter, and try to picture each scene as if I were going to film it.
TR:Some of your earliest individually published works were graphic novels. What did you like about working in that format? Have you ever considered returning to it?
SS: I still love comics, and still like to draw them when I have time. Comics are just like movies --- each panel is sort of like a movie screen, with an image and words. It's a great way to tell any kind of story.
TR: Can you tell us a bit about your writing process? Some authors give themselves a daily page requirement, and some write for a certain number of hours each day; what is your system? Do you ever struggle with getting yourself to sit down and write?
SS: I'm pretty disciplined, in terms of sitting down, but I absolutely dread facing that blank screen. Once the research is done, getting started on writing the first draft is agonizing, no matter how many times I've done it. It takes me weeks to get into any kind of rhythm, and during that time I'm very hard on myself. Once I get going, I like to work in 6-8 hour blocks, and can usually get through about 1,000 words.
TR: Who are some other nonfiction writers for young people who you admire?
SS: There are lots of great ones these days. Deborah Heiligman's CHARLES AND EMMA was inspiring to me because it didn't look or feel like a book for young readers --- just a great story that was accessible to almost everyone.
TR: What has been the most surprising thing to you about being an award winning author?
SS: That when I show up for conferences, people actually know who I am! Writing is kind of a lonely business, so it's amazing to show up in San Antonio or Chicago or wherever, and have people lined up to meet you and get books signed. The absolute best part is bringing my 7-year-old daughter to these events. She ends up thinking I'm really famous!
TR: What is the most memorable question that a kid has asked you so far? How did you answer?
SS: One student recently asked me who I thought I would be if I were a one of the characters in BOMB. Really made me think. I said I would like to think I'd be one of the physicists, like maybe the wise-cracking Richard Feynman. But the truth is, I was never that good at science.
TR: Are you working on a book right now? Can you tell us anything about it?
SS: Yes, I'm powering my way through a first draft of a book about Daniel Ellsberg, the man who leaked the top secret Pentagon Papers to the New York Times in 1971. It's a very modern-sounding story, with all the talk these days about leakers and government secrets. I want my book to be a political thriller that gives readers a look at the secret history of the Vietnam War.

The wearing of the green
Almost all the seeds I planted a few weeks ago have sprouted, and my seed tray is now a veritable wonderland of tiny green sprouts and tendrils.
While I love all the phases of the growing season (except perhaps pest control--haven't figured out a green way of combating aphids yet), this is definitely my favorite. I kneel down in front of the seed tray at least once a day, murmuring sweet nothings into the seedlings' unfurling ears. Maybe this makes me crazy...but that's fine.
Looking at the moss-like cover of the tiny lobelia sprouts puts me in mind of lush gardens and winding paths leading to secret hideaways. It's my someday dream to build a Secret Garden, as magical as the one at the end of Frances Hodgson Burnett's novel, and meanwhile I have to be content with filing away inspiration and images for later. The website Gardenista has been particularly fun to pore over--it's full of beautiful gardens from around the world, as well as advice on how to create your own.
Tell me, do you save ideas for someday gardens or someday houses? And is Pinterest good for this sort of thing? I'm tempted, but so many kinds of social media make me wary.
4 comments:
I really like Pinterest, although I use it to save ideas for recipes, crafts, and baby stuff right now. I'm not big on home decor (that's kind of Ryan's thing) but lots of other people put ideas for decorating a home on there. What I like about pinterest is that it doesn't take up any physical space and your ideas can stay there for years. Plus, it doesn't require the same kind of interaction as other social media. You can pin when you feel like it without feeling pressure to get on the site at regular intervals. Let me know if you join Pinterest- I'd love to follow you (which just means I get to see all the cool stuff that you pin)ReplyDelete
And this post officially is my mentor text of the day! You win a prize, young lady.ReplyDelete

Indigestion, balding, patchy skin and a number of other ailments can all be traced back to the same thing: bad water. Softening up water can make it a lot easier to use. The water softeners listed below can help you soften your water and make it healthier to use. Do check out our buying guide before buying.
Buying Guide for Water Softener
We care about you!
We want you to make the best and informed decision about buying a water softener. This buying guide will take you through the most important questions that you have in your mind before buying a water softener. We have developed this buying guide after days long of research on different softeners available in the market.
Do you really need a water softener?
You might have in your mind what do you really need a water softener. Well, according to the U.S. geological survey, around 85% of the water is hard. Apart from this, indications of hard water are easy to notice over a couple of years. If your skin and hair become rough, plumbing fixtures need to be fixed on a regular basis and scale gets to build upon them. The life of kitchen utensils gets shortened. If you are experiencing any one of them or all of them, then you definitely need a water softener.

Which type of water softener do you need?
Getting the right type of water softener according to your demand is very important. The answer to this question will give you awareness about the different types of water softeners available in the market. It's effectiveness based on its characteristics. Generally, the following three types are commonly used.
Salt-Based Water Softeners
As the name indicates, these water softeners use salts for the water softening. The chemical process that takes place inside the water softening plant is too complex to explain here. It is pertinent to highlight here, that in this type of water softening plant, exchange of ions takes place.
Salt-Free Water Softeners
Do not be enticed by the name. They are not very effective when it comes to water softening. They act like water conditioners and just help in reducing the buildup of scale inside your pipes.
Magnetic Water Softeners
Easy to install, this water softener works by generating a magnetic field around your water pipes and helps in avoiding lime buildup inside your pipes.
The installation of a magnetic water softener is easy and does not interfere with your plumbing system. You just have to plug in the device and coil some wires around the water inlets.
Dual Tank Water Softeners
These are heavy-duty water softeners and are perfect for households with huge water consumption. This type of water softeners has two tanks and is able to provide you with an ample supply of soft water around the clock. When one tank is regenerating, the other one provides you with soft water. We recommend you selecting this type of water softener plant if you consume water in massive quantities.
How is the water softener installed?
Installing water softeners can be a daunting task. If you do not have some grip over plumbing work and do not know where the water inlet is located, you can hire the services of a professional to install the water softener plant for you. If you are confident enough that you can install it successfully, the following steps can guide you through the installation process.'
- Close the main water inlet supply and find out 'cut the water pipes' at the point where it enters your house.
- Attach the pipe connection with three valves (one to stop water entering from softener plant, second to stop water leaving softener, third is the bypass valve) here.
- Make sure that all the connections are tight.
- Now connect the media tank to the brine tank with the help of 3/8 plastic tubing, drain line to the drain elbow and discharge pipe with wastewater drain.
These are the general instructions; a more detailed installation method will also be given in the brochure or installation guide of the product. Magnetic water softeners have a different method of installation.
Is softened water safe to drink?
There are some concerns about drinking softened water. We need to make it clear that drinking softened water can be problematic for you in the long run. A combination of water softener and drinking water plants can result in the perfect and healthy drinking water for your household.
Can you connect the water softener to hot water?
No. Connecting water softener through your water heating system can destroy the working of your water softener system. Please make sure that you connect the water softener before your water heater.
How can you consider the capacity of the water softener?
There are different water softeners available in the market with different capacities. The best way to make sure that you never run out of soft water is to buy a water softener that has more capacity of processing water as compared to your average monthly usage. Also, keep a check on the regeneration system and capacity of the softener and it gets along with your usage.
How can you make sure that the soft water supply never stops?
If you need a continuous supply of soft water with adequate pressure, you need to install a double tank softener. We have already explained this type above.
What is the life of a water softener?
The average life-span of water softeners is 10-15 years. However, when used with care and according to its capacity, a durable water softener can work for 20 years or so.
What is the benefit of the bypass valve?
A bypass valve allows you to bypass water from the water softener. This can be helpful when it comes to using water in large quantities like filling the pool, gardening and other such activates. A good bypass valve is easy to install and operate.
How can you make sure that water softener gets fitted easily at the available space?
This is very important. Please make sure that you have enough space to install and operate a water softener at the point where water pipes enter your house.

Water Softeners Reviews
12. Aquasana 6-Year, 600,000 Gallon Whole House Water Filter – 6-year Filter System
- 600,000-gallon filtration guaranteed
- 10-inch pre-filter
- Shipped in more than one box
- Includes 0.75-inch pipe fittings
This filter is great for people who live in areas where chlorinated water is common. The filter is specially designed to remove chlorine and there are lots of benefits to this. Firstly, the water ends up tasting better. Water is not just for drinking, we cook food with it too. This food tastes a lot better as well because the water no longer has that chemical taste.
The water becomes a lot softer as well, you can feel it when you shower. It's a pity that this water softener is so difficult to install, otherwise, it would have ranked much higher on this list. It's also rather expensive, which is confusing because this product does not have features that support the price point. Another thing you should consider is that this water softener leaves charcoal deposits in your pipes from the filter which you will have to occasionally clean up.
- Better tasting water
- Noticeably softer water
- Accessories included
- Reduces chlorine
- Difficult to install
- Expensive
- Leaves charcoal deposits
11. Whirlpool WHES30 30,000 Grain Water Softener – 30,000 Grain Capacity
- NFS certified
- 1-year warranty
- Made in the USA
- Removes up to 8 ppm of iron
An NFS certified water softener is sure to be a good buy. Right off the bat, this product is superior to the Aquasana model ranked below it because it is a lot easier to install. You can do it on your own without having to hire a professional to help you out. There are also no sedimentary deposits being left in your pipe.
Further benefits of this product are that it filters your water efficiently. Metals and unpleasant tastes get leached out through the complex filtration process. This is a relatively durable water softener as well, although the metal cover tends to rust over time. One thing you should consider before buying this water softener is that the connectors between the pipes are not secure enough. If the water pressure is too high, some water might leak out of these connectors.
- Easy to install
- Attractive design
- Long-lasting and durable
- Filters very hard water quite well
- Connectors sometimes leak when subjected to high water pressure
- Metal cover rusts after extended use
10. Mobile-Soft-Water Portable Softener – Water Softener for RV
- Removes soluble calcium and iron
- Intended for mobile water softening
- Treats 5 gallons per minute
- Weighs 14 pounds
This product is great at removing two commonly found minerals in water: calcium and iron. These minerals can make the water you're drinking taste strange and metallic. They also make the water heavy and harsh which can cause skin problems and make you lose your hair. Calcium and iron can also be bad for you in large quantities, so this water softener helps you improve your health as well as making your water tastier and more comfortable to shower with!
One of the main benefits of this product is that it is quite portable. It also treats water rapidly, so you can carry this water softener along with you on camping trips or when you're traveling. One thing that takes away portability is that you need to charge this product a lot before you can use it. Also, it isn't big enough to be your main water softener at home.
- Lightweight and compact; optimal portability
- Fast water treatment
- Improves water taste
- Can filter all kinds of water
- Only works after an extended period of charging
- Too small to fulfill home water use requirements
9. Shower Filter Water Softener – 15-Stage Water Filtration
- Removes heavy metals and germs
- Purifies water
- No tools required to install
- Meant for showers
The Shower Filter Water Softener does a good job of improving the showers you take. After a few days of showering with this water, your skin will naturally feel a lot softer and cleaner, especially right after you get out of the shower. The water won't just feel good, it will be cleaner too. This is because this product removes bacteria and germs as well as sedimentary deposits in your water.
Since this is primarily used for showerheads, this water softener is quite portable as well. In fact, it is lightweight and compact enough to fit in a pocket in your backpack. This water softener gives you great water pressure to shower with, but it does not do much to filter drinking water efficiently. This is especially a problem if you consider that this water softener doesn't store any water. Overall, though, it deserves it's relatively high ranking on this list.
- Makes skin and hair feeling soft and clean
- Reduces the risk of diseases caused by bacteria
- Provides good water pressure
- Lightweight and portable
- Does not store water
- Difficult to use to treat drinking water
8. FilterSmart Whole House Water Filter System & Salt-Free Water Softener – 1 Million Gallons Filter Life
- Comes with a combination of water softener and whole house bath filter system
- Easy installation with little or no maintenance required
- NSF certified filters
- Eco-friendly
- 1,000,000 gallons of water filtration capacity
This whole house water filter and salt-free water softener take care of your health, skin, hairs, and nails. It uses no salt or potassium, wastes no electricity or water, extends the life of your home appliances, and requires less or no maintenance.
It is an NSF certified product that ensures effective removal of chlorine from tap water. It also reduces limescale formation on showerheads, pipes, and faucets to provide water free from calcium and magnesium.
The pre-sediment filter eliminates rust, debris, and silt. The GAC (Granular Activated Carbon) filter takes out chlorine and improves the water taste and odor. And the salt-free water softener kills hard water particles to prevent limescale growth.
- Built-in bypass for easy installation
- Wastes no water or electricity
- Removes sand, chlorine, and hard water particles
- Uses no potassium or salt
- Five-year filter life
- Fails to perform when you have rusty pipelines
- Fails to offer constant water pressure
7. Eddy Electronic Water Descaler – Water Softener Alternative
- Water softener alternative
- Descales entire water system
- Retains healthy minerals in the water
- Maintenance-free system
This Eddy electronic water descaler is basically an alternative of the water softener that descales the entire water system. You can easily install it on any plastic or metal pipe to prevent the scale build-up. The unit makes the water soft but keeps the essential minerals into it.
It requires no salt to work but provides great quality water that takes care of your skin, hairs, and the appliances that need water. It is a highly economical product that many homeowners, as well as business organizations, use for treating water. The unit features two magnetic coils that get attached to the pipe. They produce electromagnetic waves that change the binding nature of the limescale. In this way, the limescale fails to build up in the pipelines and the appliances you use.
- Works well on all types of pipes
- Environmental friendly
- Easy installation
- No plumbing changes, and requires no salt at all
- Lifetime repair and money-back guarantee
- Not suitable for the rusty pipelines
6. Discount Water Softeners Premier 40,000 Grain Water Softener – 13 GPM Water Flow Rate
- Metered water control
- Soft water brine tank
- Neoprene tank jacket
- Bacteria resistant design
This water softener deals with a major problem with this type of product: bacterial growth. It prevents bacteria from growing in the water tank and filters out a lot of heavy metals which neutralizes bad tastes in the water. Another great thing about this water softener is that it doesn't reduce water pressure, unlike the Hansing Whole House Water Softener System at number 3. This is why this product is ranked higher.
In spite of the high water pressure, you will notice that you end up saving a lot of water. This is because you will feel cleaner more quickly while showering. Cleaner water will also help you lather up better with soap. These things more than makeup for the high price you will have to pay for this water softener. However, this product is tough to install on your own, and the fact that a professional will have to step in would increase costs which is an inconvenience.
- Prevents growth of bacteria
- Reduces water consumption
- Provides optimal water pressure
- Meter lets you see how much salt is filtered
- Effectively neutralizes bad tastes and odors
- Requires a professional to install
- Rather pricey

Water is one of the most important things that we need to survive. It is not only a necessary component of our diet; it also plays a paramount role in our daily lives. Without water, our daily life will be paralyzed. The quality of water is very significant in this regard. It is dominated by the presence of certain minerals. Excess of minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and metals like iron can cause the water to become "hard". This hard water needs to be treated before it can be used without having certain disadvantages. For this purpose, water softeners are used. Before we actually proceed towards the buying guide for water softeners, we would like to highlight some of the disadvantages that hard water can cause. A list of drawbacks of using hard water is given below:
- Skin and hair get dry
- Scale builds up on electric appliances and plumbing fixtures
- Glassware gets damaged easily and silverware loses its shine and luster.
- High water charges
Using a water softener can bring many advantages for you. Apart from the softer skin and healthy hair, it can make sure that your clothes remain soft and you avoid any skin allergy or rash. Anything that uses water gets a long life with soft water running through it. Your cooking utensils, mirrors, tiles, cars, and plumbing fixtures remain neat and shine better. Spending some money on a water softener once allows you to save money by avoiding a lot of repairs and damages that are caused by the use of hard water.
These water softeners can help you lead a healthier life, not to mention how comfortable you will feel after showering with softened water. Our research has to lead us to conclude that the ABCwaters 5600sxt Fleck Softener and Carbon Filter is the best product on the market and can give you the best possible water.
