Vibrational Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy in Electron Microscopy reveals new aspects of water at the nanoscale level
A new microscopy technique developed at the University of Illinois at Chicago, in collaboration with researchers at Oak Ridge National Lab. in Tennessee, the Nion Company in Seattle, and the Center for Materials Physics in San Sebastian, Spain (CSIC-UPV/EHU) allows researchers to visualize liquids at the nanoscale level – about 10 times more resolution than with traditional transmission electron microscopy – for the first time, and to understand the details of the vibrational properties of the liquid sample in a complex nanoenvironment.
By trapping minute amounts of liquid between two two-dimensional layers of boron nitride, the liquid sample can be imaged at extremely high resolution using a traditional transmission electron microscopy and spectroscopy techniques. This approach could provide information on the vibrational state of individual molecules.
The new technique can be used to follow nanoscale-sized tracers used in biological research, and to visualize processes at liquid-solid interfaces at unprecedented resolution. Using their specialized sample holder, or boron nitride cell, the researchers describe the unique vibrational properties of water and heavy water at the nanoscale level. Researchers of the "Theory of nanophotonics" group in San Sebastian helped to interpret the vibrational information obtained in the energy loss spectra, by a modelization of infrared response of the liquid water sandwiched in the boron nitride layers. This study shows the importance of the nanoscale environment to properly account of the energy and intensity of the vibrational lines obtained with this novel microscopy technique.
The experimental researchers at Chicago and Tennessee had to solve the problem of how to isolate tiny amounts of liquid in preparation for scanning transmission electron microscopy, which uses a focused beam of electrons to image samples. Normally, samples must be frozen or encased in epoxy and then sliced superthin before being placed under the electron beam, where the user has just seconds to take pictures of the sample before it vaporizes. After dismissing other options, the researchers finally settled on nanolayers of boron nitride to encapsulate and support the liquid without affecting the measurements.
By using a scanning transmission electron microscope with one of the world's best energy resolutions at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge national laboratory in Tennessee, the vibrational spectrum of liquid water at the mili-electron volt's range could be measured. Normally, water in large amounts vibrates at 420 mili-electron volts, but the researchers witnessed that water trapped in the BN cell vibrated at 406 mili-electron volts.
This new electron microscopy technique allows to see physical and chemical processes happening in a liquid environment at the nanoscale level. Far smaller volumes can be measured by other methods, but at such small scales, the behavior of water changes as individual atomic bonds, local electric fields and the proximity of surfaces begin to affect its normal behavior. Some of these effects have been accounted for within the dielectric response theory used by the "Nanophotonics Theory" group at the Center for Materials Physics in San Sebastian to reveal the complex interactions of the nanoenvironment which determines the final details of the vibrational spectra.
This work has been published in Advance Materials, and has been funded in part by National Science Foundation grants DMR-0959470 and DMR-1626065 and by grant FIS2016-80174-P from the Spanish Ministry.

In Unit 2 the parts of speech were covered. Nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, articles, and prepositions were all expected. But I actually learned of the term Gerund while working on this unit. I understood the theory behind making a present participle verb into a couple different parts of speech, but had no label for that grammatical phenomenon. This section gives the general rules and guidelines to understanding the English language and how the pieces fit together. Although brief, the section attempts to fully summarize and explain what each word in a sentence is, and how order is determined so as to promote proficiency and ease in speaking the language. This unit is going to be a good resource to explain the parts of a speech to my students in the classroom. We are used to write without observing gramatical sense. It is quite hard to remember all the verbs but if students read more, they can understand the difference.

Now let's visit the three-story oldtimer at 177 State, almost next door below No. 165, and occupied by Morris J. Rozinsky, Inc. Since 1911, this firm has engaged in loans and sales of diamonds, watches and jewelry, besides stocking an extensive and varied line of merchandise, with emphasis on cameras and photographic supplies, binoculars, musical instruments, luggage, sporting goods, radios and TV equipment. Carl Rozinsky, present head, says that the establishment has been at No. 177 since it was acquired the entire building some years ago. The exterior galaxy of sparkling electric lights, distinctive of the busy Rozinsky store, is soon marked by the visitor to State Street.
If these walls could speak, their reminiscences would enliven and enrich the all too scanty annals of early variety theater days in Hartford. But first a brief account of S. D. Chamberlin & Sons, original owners of No. 177.
Hartford's Chamberlin "beef house," whose salesman for generations covered Southern New England and beyond, has long been out of business, its good will and traditions perpetuated by Arnurius Dunn & Co., of Pleasant Street. Chamberlin's was founded in 1837 at No. 177, which gives an idea as to the building's remote construction. "Chamberlin's Old-Fashioned New England Cured Dried Beef" was the company's principal and most highly publicized product. The Chamberlins never tired of stressing that their beef was cured the real, old Connecticut way and positively was "not smoked." Still visible on the facade of No. 177, twice prominently painted thereon, is the oft-repeated Chamberlin motto that their beef, cured in the rear of No. 177, was "not smoked." To cure beef otherwise, according to the Chamberlin credo, was heresey. Arnurius Dunn & Co. is still curing its beef by the same process.
Should you stroll down there for a curious look, you will also be gazing at what was once Hartford's first regular variety theater. Newton's Varieties, which flourished in the 1870s until the final curtain was rung down in 1877. The Rozinsky building now has only three stories; there were originally four. The Chamberlins rented out the upper three floors to Joe Newton, a Hartford man and the city's pioneer variety impresario. The fourth floor was the gallery, the third floor the stage and orchestra. On the second floor was that vitally necessary prop, the bar.
Patriarch Billy O'Brien of 68 Ashley Street, the nation's oldest Elk, both in age and membership, (he will be 99 next May) is about the only person in Hartford, it is believed, who can tell what Newton's Varieties was like. In his newspaper-carrying boyhood, Billy was a faithful gallery patron there. We are indebted to him for these facts.
The theater was tiny, capacity only about 500. Although women performers appeared on the stage, the audiences were strictly stag. One apocryphal version has pictured Newton's as a sort of honky-tonk where no "lady" would be seen, even with a male escort. Not so, avers the omniscient Billy; Newton ran clean shows, ever mixing propriety with variety. The Sage of Ashley Street adds that he first saw and hard the great Maggie Cline sing "Throw Them Down, McCloskey," the hit song of her long career, at Newton's. Again, many of the acts which Tony Pastor booked into his fabulous New York variety house also worked for Joe Newton. One reason why women avoided the theater was that the audience could drink beer and smoke during the show and intermissions. Hence the atmosphere became pretty thick and hazy. A six-ounce mug of beer (no hard liquor served) cost a nickel. The dexterous waiters would juggle 20 mugs at a time as they circulated through the audience, proffering the beer and cigars. Billy says, too, that Tony Pastor, the Jove of American variety, married a Hartford girl and liked our town, visiting often.
Undoubtedly, the most famous blackface minstrel of all time, the very symbol and embodiment of American minstrelsy, was Lew Clapp, born and raised in Hartford, who won renown as Lew Dockstader. Early in his career, Clapp, as sole propietor, took over the theater from Newton, calling it Calpp's Adelphi for a brief period in 1876-77, also doubling in brass as a performer. Clapp's Venture wasn't a success, however, and he sold out to Add Weaver, a fellow minstrel. The Adelphi soon went into limbo, a rival variety house on Market Street offering serious competition. Clapp subsequently teamed up with Charley Dockstader, the minstrel, took his name and reached the heights as a burnt-cork artist.
No. 127 State, the third East Side landmark destined to disappear, iks the present warehouse of Nemrow Bros., Inc., which moves to expanded quarters at Washington and Park streets. This organization, with three other warehouses in Waterbury, New Haven and Bridgeport, is the largest wholesale distributor of candy, tobacco and kindred merchandise in Connecticut. Under the executive leadership of Barney Nemrow and his son, Richard, of Boston, the Nemrow headquarters being in the Hub, the organization's far-flung operations include a chain of warehouses in Springfield and other Bay State cities. The managers of the Hartford warehouses, however, are Francis X. Gunning, a Frog Hollow alumnus, and Francis "Red" Siegel, another Hartfordite and a popular personality in the wholesale field.
Frankly, we do not know much about the history of No. 127, aside from the fact that from the 1860s until 1916 it was the headquarters of Smith, Northam & Co., which sold flour, grain and feed by the carload over a wide area in New England. It also had an immense elevator, mill and warehouses on Windsor Street. However, the State Street warehouse, for that is what it actually is, looks as if it can be dated far earlier than the 1860s.

We all experience stress in our lives: work stress, financial stress, relationship stress, school stress. This is actually quite normal. Managing stress can be difficult, but is not impossible. Learning to identify when you are stressed and learning relief techniques is the key to dealing with it positively.
Here are SIX stress relief techniques that we thought you might find useful:
1. Be Positive. Positivity is one of the most important tools in dealing with stress on a day-to-day basis. The key is focusing your mind on positive and optimistic parts of your life, with positive words and affirmations. This practice will improve your morale and confidence, and improve the overall state of mind.
2. Organize. Try to prioritize and organize things in your life. Make lists and be sure to stick with your regular routine. Do not leave things to the last minute, this will only cause unnecessary stress and frustration.
3. Communicate. Inform your friends and family about the stressors in your life. When you express your thoughts and emotions, you are helping to cope with the stress in a healthier way.
4. Learn to relax. There are so many things that you can do to relax and unwind when you are stressed like take a bath, listen to the music, dance, practice yoga, meditation or go out with your friends. Find what relaxes you and enjoy.
5. Exercise. 30 minutes of intense cardiovascular training will clear your mind. If aerobic training is not your cup of tea, a good stretch and lifting light weights will do the job as well. Physical activities will keep your body in tone and your mind fresh and stress free.
6. Chiropractic care. Chronic stress is PROVEN to manifest itself into disease and spinal problems called subluxations. Get your spine checked to make sure that your spine is healthy. If your spine has these misalignments, they can cause brain chemistry issues linked to stress due to improper nerve function. Overtime, these stresses can cause neck pain, headaches, and even lower back pain. A healthy and balanced spine is one key to effectively managing stress. Give us a call at (618) 236-3738.
Apply these techniques to life and it will help you live a happier stress free lifestyle.

P-Funk and I didn't ask for Fine China for a wedding gift. He said we have too many dishes as it is and I will need a storage unit for my dishes alone. But, now I wish more than ever we had. We are hosting Thanksgiving this year and I don't have enough of any set to fill the table(s). So, I had to get creative. I am mix and matching sets I inherited from 2 different grandmothers to make a perfect harvest setting.
Below I coordinated the napkin color with the largest plate, looking for the cleanest contrast with the smallest.
I really like the way the entire table came out.
There are a few things missing, like a carved turkey, and mashed potatoes, and an entire table. I have about 11 people coming over for Thanksgiving this year! The other table we have available is a round/oval table, so we are going to make a "T" with them. This is will provide plenty of room for all the delicious food, wine and love that will surely be surrounding the table this year.
The only thing I need more of are place mats, napkin rings, and possibly silverware. Sounds like a few shopping trips to Create & Barrel and Ikea are in my future! *Heaven help me!* I might also go to GoodWill to look for a drink cart, just to place items that are taking up space on the table.
Do you have any Turkey Day tips? Please share! I need all the help I can get!

Lately I've been talking with a company called ReferNet (http://www.refernet.net).
Here's why I think this company is interesting and why it will change the game:
The Web has evolved drastically over the course of the last decade. Once just a source for information, it has now become a medium where we (like it or not) live much of our lives. From email to sports to news to commerce - the web reaches into every part of our daily life. Thankfully, many of the things we do still require human interaction. We go to the dentist, bookstore, lawyer, or massage therapist. Finding the right people to go to is sometimes a difficult proposition however. I recently moved to up to San Francisco and I am clueless as to what dentist to go to. Does looking up dentists in the yellow pages really provide a good solution?
The answer is of course no. I'd much rather be able to instantly find out what dentists my friends use so that I can go to one with a high degree of confidence. The problem is that finding out this information is tedious.
The web has moved from a) a large information directory (movie times, stocks, etc.) to b) more personal information on what books to read (amazon reccomendations, user reviews) and what things to buy (epinions). Finally it is starting to move towards c) an information directory that tells me what my friends/acquintances are reading, viewing, buying, and most importantly what service providers they are using. This is where a company like ReferNet comes in.
ReferNet allows service providers to link with each other to provide referrals and leads to new clients. In addition it allows people to search for new service providers that their contacts use. The site is interesting because it also provides CRM like applications for people like real estate agents. Giving agents an easy-to-use application that is beneficial to them is what will drive usage of this site.
A spin on the social networking concept, ReferNet is one of several companies attempting to change the game for consumer facing service provider businesses today. Next post we'll get to some of those. I promise.

Coping with an unplanned pregnancy
- 11 Months ago
- 5.0
An unplanned pregnancy can be a very overwhelming, confusing and an emotionally trying experience. For this reason, it is best to seek advice and/or counseling from a neutral, unbiased professional. This will enable you to navigate a complex and stressful situation more....
If you believe you may be pregnant or you know you are, pregnancy counseling can help you. When you are faced with an unplanned pregnancy, there are many choices you will have to make. Pregnancy counseling offers pregnancy advice, referrals and information regarding your options for dealing with your pregnancy.
Perhaps you are secretly excited about this but scared to tell your husband. Maybe you are not married and scared about facing motherhood alone. Maybe you do not want any more children and the prospect of having another baby is the worst thing you could imagine right now. There are many scenarios that lead up to unplanned pregnancies.
Mistakes in judgment happen, condoms break, birth control pills fail, even tubal ligations and vasectomies fail.
Once you get over the initial shock of finding out that you are pregnant you will have some difficult decisions to face. Do you want to carry this pregnancy, how are you going to tell your friends and family, how are you going to handle the emotions and pressures that people will put on you. The first thing you should do is try not to panic. Although this may seem like an extreme emergency, in reality you have time to make a decision.
Try to take some time to be calm and collect yourself and think about your options. You will not be the first mum to not be excited about the news of a new baby. Try not to beat yourself up. Take responsibility and be accountable for your actions but wallowing in guilt is not going to help the situation. Before you talk to anyone about your decision take some time to decide what you want to do. Your partner should probably be involved in the decision-making, but, ultimately; you are the one that is going to have to live with your choices. Try to make some plans in your head for what you would like to do before you talk to anyone.
After you have had time to think about things and to gather yourself, you may want to get some counsel from friends or family. Find someone that you know will be helpful and supportive of your decision to confide in. You need to have support during this time. You don't want to be surrounded by people that are going to beat you down for your mistake, blame you or pressure you into doing what they want. Surround yourself with a support group.
If you have no one to turn to you can seek help from support groups geared for this situation
Eventually you are going to have to tell some people. You don't have to tell everyone and you can tell people about this in your own time when you ready. Your partner may not be the first person you want to tell and that's okay. When you are ready find a time to sit down and talk to him.
The longer you go without telling him the harder it will be. Sometimes it is easier to tell him earlier and let him come to terms with the situation than it is to wait and have him angry for not telling him sooner. Either way if you think that he will be unhappy it is going to be hard to tell him the news. Prepare yourself for the reactions and when you are ready just tell him. There are no right words to say. Try to avoid blaming or taking the blame. This situation doesn't happen with only one person involved. It is not all your fault or his entire fault. It is a shared responsibility that the two of you will have to deal with and come out with the best possible solution.
If your partner, friends and family are not initially supportive that's okay. It is not their life or their pregnancy. They are not the ones who have to live with your decision. You are. Try not to let pointless comments get to you. You can use humor to lighten the mood. If you are excited about this and they are not, then share your excitement. You can use I statements to let them know how you feel.
If others fail to respect your decision and do not have anything positive to offer, you might want to simply explain that the discussion is off limits and refuse to talk about it with them. Whatever your choice may be, in the end it is your decision.

text: Judas Priest are an English heavy metal band formed in West Bromwich in 1969. They have sold over 50 million copies of their albums. They are frequently ranked as one of the greatest metal bands of all time. Despite an innovative and pioneering body of work in the latter half of the 1970s, the band had struggled with indifferent record production and a lack of major commercial success or attention until 1980, when they adopted a more simplified sound on the album British Steel.

Growth of cigars and cigarillos slowed to stagnation in 2018 due to the government measures of tax legislation, smoke-free zones, and banned displays. However, although the consumer base for cigars and cigarillos remains limited to a small base of affluent consumers, this consumer group has been expanding as the appeal of these products continues to grow.
The rising cost of smoking machine-made cigarettes since the excise tax increase introduced in 2017 has motivated increasing numbers of smokers to turn to fine cut tobacco in an effort to reduce the cost of their smoking habit. This is true even though there was previously little culture of hand-rolling cigarettes amongst Thai people.
Cigars and cigarillos and smoking tobacco tend to be more popular among foreign tourists and expatriates than the local population of Thailand. As such, the anticipated increases in the numbers of inbound tourists visiting Thailand and as well as the rising numbers of expatriates are set to support growing demand over the forecast period.
Corporación Habanos maintained its leading volume share in cigars and cigarillos in 2018 on the strength of its veritable monopoly in cigarillos, where it gained additional volume share. This was despite the company seeing a slight loss in volume share in the cigars arena to leading player J Cortes Cigars.
In smoking tobacco, the leading player Piangjai Industries (1989) also gained volume share in 2018. Its lead in smoking tobacco can be attributed almost entirely to the popularity of its flagship fine cut tobacco brand Black Cat.
Faced with plummeting volume sales due to tax-related price increases since 2017 and further tax increases expected to become effective in 2021, cigarette players are considering new strategies that may affect competition within smoking tobacco. The newly incorporated Tobacco Authority of Thailand (TOAT), for example, is known to be considering a new focus on offering domestic fine cut tobacco, as it is the category that is most clearly benefitting from down trading caused by the recent excise tax increases.

Inquest opens into death of husband and wife found in Lincolnshire home
An inquest into the deaths of a husband and wife found at their home will open today.
As previously reported, the bodies of 50-year-olds Lawrence and Bernice Williams were discovered by police at their property on Colley's Gate earlier this month.
Officers first discovered Lawrence Williams on April 7, with specialist teams finding his wife two days later.
A spokesperson for Lincolnshire Police said: "Post mortem examinations have been carried out but cause of death has yet to be established for Mrs Williams, while it is believed Mr Williams took his own life.
"Investigating officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with this incident.
"A file is being prepared for the coroner."

Author Literatus
By Clay Smith, Fri., July 2, 1999
It's important to note that when Saylor says that his books are "a good place to escape to," he's referring to them as an escape for his readers and for himself. In his latest, Rubicon: A Novel of Ancient Rome (St. Martin's, 23.95 hard), there's a plethora of evidence -- the sly and cheeky humor that rears its head every so often -- that Saylor is in on the joke, which is such a crucial ingredient for any work that intends to offer escape to a reader. But Saylor doesn't neglect the weightier elements, the pathos his characters suffer; he depicts (in spades) murder, treachery, character assassination, and the sense of uprootedness that is part and parcel of any treatment of a slaveholding society. Even a brief recitation of Rubicon's plot points is somewhat dizzying: The narrator of the series, Gordianus the Finder, is a former slave who now has a family of his own and is getting too old for the spy business. When Pompey's young cousin Numerius Pompeius comes over to Gordianus' house to tell him he has news for Gordianus' ears alone and then ends up strangled in the courtyard, Pompey decides to "borrow" Gordianus' oafish son-in-law Davus as a bodyguard in the ensuing civil war between Pompey and Caesar until Gordianus unearths the identity of Numerius' murderer. Since Saylor's novels feature such larger-than-life historical figures as Caesar, Pompey, and Cicero, I asked Saylor why he doesn't choose one of them as his narrator.
Steven Saylor: Well, that's just how the series started out. When I wrote the first one, I didn't know I was writing a series. I thought I was writing a "literary novel" (laughs) and I was taken aback a bit when they asked for the next book. And so I thought, "They're offering me a chance to write an ongoing series about the end of the Roman republic, which will be a wonderful experience," so that I created this sort of sleuth-like character simply to have distance from Cicero originally. I didn't want to make Cicero the narrator or the focus of that book. He needed a hired hand. And the character simply evolved. To me, he's almost invisible. I really can't see him and when I do get fan letters saying, "Oh I love the character," I don't quite know what they're talking about because I'm too close.
Austin Chronicle:Do you get a lot of fan mail?
SS: Mostly e-mail these days. I have a Web site, and I put that on the book jacket, so most of it comes in the form of e-mail from around the world.
AC:What sorts of things do they tend to say?
SS: Well, it can be as brief as saying just "love your books!" which is the hardest kind to answer -- what do I say? -- to people who have specific questions about where things are located, where I found a certain source. Some of them are classical scholar types who want to know, "Where did you find this?" and then I have to go look it up, and it takes a lot of time out of me. Other people just want to touch bases. It's really funny -- when I was growing up as a boy, as a reader, I never wanted to meet authors. I never really even wanted to see what they looked like. I wanted them to be distant from me, but maybe the world has changed because now we expect -- you know, the author has to be a public person. And there are people who want contact with you.
AC:And you don't entirely relish that ...
SS: I have never failed to answer a fan letter! I do take it really seriously. The best are the high school students who have clearly been assigned my book, who want crib notes, who say, "Mr. Saylor, I am a huge fan of your work. Could you possibly provide a synopsis of the plot of Catalina's Riddle in 200 words?" I can smell a rat.
AC:How would you describe the reception of the series by classicists?
SS: It's been very good. I was a little nervous about that because you're dealing with known history and there are experts out there light years beyond me, but I've been invited to speak to many a classical group. I was just at the Classical Association of Atlantic States in Washington, D.C. I've spoken to the National Classical League, which is college and high school instructors, the Junior Classical League, which is high school Latin students, wearing togas, 1,800 of them at their big summer meeting. ... Part of it is that the ivory tower is really under siege in academia and the classicists, they're the Western civilization, dead white male contingent, and, you know, anything that popularizes the ancient world and the classics is something they welcome and they seem to think I'm doing a competent job of it. I mean, some of them really love the books but I don't get a lot of criticism. First, I don't think I make many mistakes.
AC:But you never studied Latin, just Roman history?
SS: I think I told you my Shakespeare quote, didn't I? As Ben Johnson said of Shakespeare, "He knew little Latin and less Greek," and I like to say I am like Shakespeare in this way at least.
AC:But certain phrases pop up; for example at one point in Rubicon, Gordianus has to go to the bathroom during the night and of course that's how we would phrase it, that we have to get up to go to the bathroom, but he says he has to "pass water," and that struck me as the way an ancient Roman might phrase that. So you're obviously putting that in for authenticity's sake.
SS: Well, probably. This question of language in the historical novel of course is something I deal with every day, anachronism and tone and all of that. There are some authors who don't worry about it and who intentionally use anachronisms for comic effect, but that's never been my approach. That's very difficult; that's one of the hardest things because you don't want the jarring word. At the same time, you don't want to be stuffy because it's got to be immediate, you're trying to be as immediate as a modern novel. So that's also a constant challenge. I mean, I sometimes think that anyone who wants to write a historical mystery novel is choosing the hardest possible path because it's a three-ring circus. First of all, you have to write a novel with a beginning, middle, and end, a resolution that resonates. That's a challenge. And then you have to write a mystery novel with an invisible plot that isn't revealed until the end of the book that makes sense, and then you're doing a historical novel which you want to make as authentic and vivid as possible. So it keeps me busy and occupied. Anybody who writes books needs to be engaged in them. And this is a particular thing that I guess engages all of my faculties.

Panic attacks are scary to experience, and even scarier to witness. They oftentimes take up symptoms of strokes and can cause unconsciousness. With 1.7% of the population, approximately 2.4 million Americans, having experienced a panic attack at least once in their life, it's become more common and definitely more important to bring awareness to panic attacks, and highlight possible remedies.
What are Panic Attacks?
Firstly, a panic attack is the overwhelming feeling of anxiety or fear that seemingly occurs out of nowhere. Symptoms of a panic attack include a dangerously fast heart rate, becoming short of breath, inability to move, choking up, chills and shaking. These frightening signs of a panic attack strike without any warning, and make the situation even more difficult to handle.
Why Do You Experience Panic Attacks?
While the origins of each individual's panic attacks vary, we can assume that the majority of them stem from high levels of stress. Genetics also play a role in the likeness of panic attacks and other mental health conditions.
There are times, however, when your subconscious is responsible for triggering a panic attack. Traumatic situations, bad dreams or generally negative experiences have a tendency to remain in the subconscious, and appear without warning, causing a panic attack. Panic attacks can also be a symptom of heart problems, low blood sugar, drug addiction and hyperthyroidism.
Possible Treatments for Panic Attacks
Conventional medications, while are sometimes effective, are known for their undesirable side effects. Less intrusive treatments include cognitive behavioral therapy, which is a common and effective treatment for individuals that have experienced multiple panic attacks. CBD oil is derived from hemp products and contains Non-Detectable THC.
- Reducing Fear
According to a preclinical study published in NCBI by Campos AC, CBD exhibited the possibility of reducing symptoms of fear, a commonality in those who have experienced multiple panic attacks.
These individuals are conditioned to feel fear in particular situations that can trigger their panic attacks. If the infralimbic cortex, which is responsible for emotional responses such as fear, is targeted, then these instances can decrease.
- Blocking Unintentional Memory Retrieval
A person's memory plays a large role in anxiety and probability of panic attacks, as a flashback to a traumatic incident is the most common trigger of panic attacks.
According to the same trial mentioned above published in NCBI, the study observed that CBD could block the unintentional retrieval of memories in rats. It was reported that when CBD activates the CB1 receptor, it could possibly block the traumatic memories of rats, reducing the probability of recurring panic attacks. Additionally, serotonin production assists in reducing fear, panic and anxiety. 5-HT1A receptors, which attach to serotonin transmitters, and are responsible for decreasing blood pressure and heart rate.
Only now do we understand how common panic attacks are, and the importance of bringing awareness to them. Stemming from stressful situations, or instances of trauma, panic attacks are definitely nothing to take lightly, and need to be treated with caution.

The magnificent building on the northern tip of the Museum Island (Museumsinsel) just looks fabulous and impressive! It seems like a huge ship from the water of the river Spree rises and indeed that was then the intuition of the architect in designing the building. The Bode Museum is regarded as the pride of the Museum Island in Berlin and was later renamed after its first director and spiritual founder Wilhelm von Bode. The three-winged building stands impressive and compact on the edge of the Spree. Inside, however, you can expect a bright and spacious treasury with five halos.
In the Bode Museum, the Skulpturensammlung (Sculpture Collection), the Museum für Byzantinische Kunst (Museum of Byzantine Art), the Münzkabinett (Coin Cabinet) and also the Gemäldegalerie (Art Gallery) and a children's gallery are united under one roof.
The Skulpturensammlung shows you in a round tour sculptures and figurative art from the early Middle Ages to the late 18th century. The focus is on the Italian Early Renaissance.
In the Museum für Byzantinische Kunst, you can marvel the art of the Western Roman and the Byzantine Empire in the period from 3rd – 15th century. The highlights here are the late antique sarcophagi from Rome and precious ivory carvings.
The Münzkabinett is a very special area of the Berlin Museum. There you will find the full chronicle of human history forged in metal. The extensive collection shows Greek and Roman coins of Ancient, Islamic-Oriental coins and coins from the European Middle Ages. A part of the Münzkabinett you can admire also at the Pergamon Museum next door. However, even if you are not absolutely over the moon because of coins, the Pergamon Museum is definitely worth a visit.
Admission for Bode Museum is 12,- €. For a visit to the Pergamon Museum would be another 19,- € due. Therefore, here is a little tip: There is the "Bereichskarte Museumsinsel Berlin" (Museums Island Ticket). This costs 18,- € and thus you have access to all museums on Museum Island in Berlin.
After this day rich in art and culture you can leave the Museum Island via the Monbijou Bridge, walk along Monbijou Park (that also deserves your attention) and then stroll up the Oranienburger Straße. This little walk could be the culmination of your eventful day.

Progreesive Era Through the Great Depression
The Progressive Era
Around the 1910's, most Americans were anxious about the rapid economic and social changes that confronted the United States, including industrialization, the rise of powerful corporations, the growth of cities and the mass arrivals of immigrants. This period was known as the Progressive Era. Two major historical turning points that took place during this time were (1) Women earned the right to vote and (2) Education.
Women Suffrage
The early 1900s saw a successful push for the vote through a coalition of suffragists, temperance groups, reform-minded politicians, and women's social-welfare organizations. Although Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton devoted 50 years to the woman's suffrage movement, neither lived to see women gain the right to vote. But their work and that of many other suffragists contributed to the ultimate passage of the 19th amendment in 1920. Two groups that contributed to the passage of the 19th amendment the women organizations the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA), founded in 1890, and the National Women's Party (NWP), founded in 1913 and led by Alice Paul. Alice Paul and other women of the National Women's Party picketed the White House. They wanted then President Woodrow Wilson to support a Constitutional amendment giving all American women suffrage, or the right to vote. Women gained voting right in the west before the east and south and many wonder why. I believe it was because of money and development the powers that be were interested in getting the women votes to help them control development by supporting their agenda in congress, in other words the more votes they had to help their party win the election the more powerful they would become and the more money they would make. The eastern states considered themselves already powerful without the help of women and some of the women were either afraid to stand up or just content with living in the world as it was and they did not believe things would change. The southern states who remained without a powerful political party for a long time and who were set in their old fashioned ways considered women voters as a threat to their way of life. Education
The goal of the Progressive for education during the Progressive Era was to help improve individuals so they could become better in their jobs and participate in politics, but some individuals argued differenty. Throughout time the question of skill versus education has always been an issue in society. During the 19th century Booker T. Washington encouraged blacks to learn a trade or skill where they could obtain work with their hands that would help their family prosper. Washington's philosophies were that if you obtain an education that would give you a specific skill it would help establish blacks. The skills he promoted were those that would turn sharecroppers into farmers or cotton pickers into seamstress. During this time which was not long after emancipation this was a good idea for blacks. However, some blacks were still afraid of change but the majority of blacks embraced his ideas. Washington later gave one of the most influential speeches addressing both whites and blacks at an agricultural convention in Atlanta, Georgia. This speech would be known as the Atlanta Exposition. In this speech he writes "No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem". Meaning obtaining the skills to work with your hands is just as important as obtaining skills to write. In short, Washington believed that by obtaining skills of a physical nature would be more feasible for blacks and would allow them to lift themselves in society. {Atlanta Exposition, The African American Odyssey-5th edition} In contrast to his ideas and philosophies there was a man by the name of W. E. B. Du Bois. (Du Bois) Du Bois believed that if blacks...

Angels activate Dane De La Rosa
BY foxsports • April 11, 2014
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Angels activated right-handed reliever Dane De La Rosa off the disabled list Friday and sent left-hander Nick Maronde to Triple-A Salt Lake, leaving them with no lefties in their bullpen.
De La Rosa, who led the Angels in appearances last season with 75, has been on the DL since the start of the season with inflammation in his left elbow.
Maronde appeared in four games this season, giving up four hits and one run in three innings.
His departure leaves the Angels with no left-handed relievers to compete in an American League West division full of potent left-handed hitters, including Prince Fielder and Shin-Soo Choo of the Texas Rangers and Robinson Cano of the Seattle Mariners.

Happy New Year!!! Just go a head and translate that to your native tongue if it isn't English. I am not even going to try to be multi-cultural. Not that I am insensitive, I feel I am more insensitive by doing some fake shit that I learned from Google. And it will probably be wrong so I will look even more crazy. So there. Happy New Year.
Whether you are spending it at home, out on the proverbial town, or even in your Animal Crossing city plaza you may get drunk. Though make sure to BYOB to Animal Crossing those bitches give you a glass of cider way to fucking early. I had to drink that shit at 10am because you know mamas got to shovel for some fossils.
IF you do get drunk and have a hangover, I have created a list of gentle songs to ease you into the day. DRINK WATER is my one PSA for today. Also don't drink and drive. People like their lives and cars. And I assume you like not wearing orange jumpsuits.
This list is composed of mostly songs that I love when I need a moment of calm and peace. I don't have much commentary for anything and some of these are repeats but this list all together will help you tomorrow, if you need it.
1. Maureen McGovern- The Morning After
You woke up! Yay! Not being dead is good though you might think otherwise at the moment. Just remember that zombies smell and are dirty. You don't want to be dirty. You want to be dirrrrrrrrty and boy were you last night. So you are awake and now will crawl into a pot of coffee.
2. Kings of Convenience- Peacetime Resistance
Yayya coffee!! Sitting on the couch and drinking slowly is good.
3. Jets to Brazil – Sweet Avenue
Food! Hopefully you have some pretty thing who is willing to make you food. Even if it is Pepe at IHOP (FUCK YOU SuPErmAN FOR DESTROYING PANCAKE DREAMS FOR YOUR ZOD FETISH). Sorry for yelling. Continue pancakes.
4. Imogen Heap- Hide and Seek
Food coma has set in and now it is nap time. You have successfully managed food and being awake for a bit and now it is time for a nap.
5. Roxy Music- Avalon
Why is the sun so bright? You will lay in bed cuddled with your favorite fur thing- stuffed or alive. Sitting upright is hard at the moment.
6. This Mortal Coil – Song to The Siren
You might have fell back asleep again. It is a two nap day.
7. Crowded House- Four Seasons In One Day
The sun is setting. That beast is evil and cruel. You can sit now and nurse a glass of water and take the aspirin you forgot earlier.
8. Telepopmusik- Ghost Girl
More water. People try to talk to you and you try to absorb into the couch and be some ghost like thing. If you don't move, maybe they will think you are an actual ghost of your formerself.
9. Little Dragon- Twice
You are starting to feel like a human again. You attempt to visit your town in Animal Crossing with the sound off. Those bitches talk like they have nothing real to say. Pick some cherries and fish a bit to say you were productive.
10. The Temper Trap – The Sea Is Calling (acoustic)
Maybe it is time for some dinner and socializing with real people. Gently though. If anyone yells you will gently cut them with the knife in your hand. They will know why they have those scars.
11. The Church- Under the Milky Way
Ahh time for bed again. You survived the day!!! And now are snuggled in bed. Success!!!

Late last night Twitter announced Audio Cards – a new addition to your Twitter stream which allows you to listen to music and podcasts directly from your stream on iOS and Android devices. Furthermore when you so happen to find something that you like you can dock it and continue browsing Twitter while it plays in the background.
Apart from the convenience of this – this is a great new bit of news for the tech savvy business owner. Let's say you own a restaurant which has a live band/live music. You can, and should, record the show for SoundCloud, and then tweet it out to all your followers who can now use the new twitter audio cards to listen to the show. You're getting more interactions and exposure on social media; and you're followers are enjoying the music.
The same applies to recording artists and musicians of all levels. You're followers can now listen to your music that much easier – and new followers can quickly determine if they're fans or not.
Currently Twitter is partnered with SoundCloud and iTunes for audio cards.
Hear us! We're on @Soundcloud. Sit back, listen & enjoy our spacey sounds: https://t.co/DOflISpiHz https://t.co/ZPHFvVZoL8

Staying quick throughout the course
Published on December 4th, 2018
Sailing, like life, is controlling what you can control. The shiftiness of the wind makes us more reactive, but maximizing our boat speed is within our command.
However, when we think of boat speed, we tend to think how we compare to our nearest competitor, and not about our quickness elsewhere on the course.
Canadian Laser Radial sailor Sarah Douglas, who was 6th at the 2018 World Championships, explains how she is focusing on her speed where comparisons are harder:
Now that it's practically winter in Canada, it was time for me to head south. To start off the winter training, of course I went to my favourite spot: The International Sailing Academy just outside of Puerto Vallarta. I love Mexico for the great training and weather and of course working with my coach Vaughn Harrison.
The "off-season" is the perfect time to really practice your skills and make the biggest gains before the 2019 season starts. In Mexico we focused on boat handling, but more specifically the acceleration factor in every aspect of sailing.
When thinking of acceleration, most people think of just the start line, 3 – 2 -1 – Accelerate. We did work on our start line acceleration but also all areas that you can accelerate in the Laser. You can accelerate rounding a mark, shooting a mark, gybing, after hitting a wave upwind… you see what I'm talking about?
We were looking at maximizing our speed and accelerating at every opportunity we can throughout the course. Six days of 3-hour on water sessions and a workout every day. It was a great week of training with fellow Canadians and athletes from USA, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

|Published Article /
Abstract: A heavy pollution on outdoor insulators causes electrical discharges, flashovers, surface erosion or tracking. In extremely cases the dielectric breakdowns occur. In this paper the breakdowns of four insulators has been shown: porcelain bushing insulators on rectifier set ups of electrostatic precipitators, the porcelain fuse cutouts, a porcelain housing of metal oxide surge arrester and polymer concrete insulators. The analysis of other damages of condenser bushings and instrument transformers published in the literature has led us to a hypothesis that a part of these failures could be initiated or accelerated by external pollution.

Already down one of its most important players on offense, LSU has reportedly lost a veteran presence on the other side of the ball for an even longer period of time.
Citing multiple sources with knowledge of the situation, the New Orleans Times-Picayune is reporting that Rickey Jefferson suffered a broken ankle during practice Wednesday. The sources believe that the injury will end the senior safety's season.
The Baton Rouge Advocate reported that Jefferson "suffered a serious leg injury at practice Wednesday and will miss significant time." On Twitter this morning, the player asked for prayers.
Pray for me …
— RAMBO (@Self_Made8_) October 13, 2016
The football program has not yet addressed what if any injury issue there is with Jefferson. Interim head coach Ed Orgeron is expected to address the media following practice Thursday evening.
Jefferson, the brother of former Tigers quarterback Jordan Jefferson, has started all five games this season after starting nine in 2015. The Times-Picayune writes that "[s]enior Dwayne Thomas is listed as Jefferson's backup but junior John Battle could also see time as Jefferson's potential replacement."

Persistence Quotes
"Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find that you have crossed the mountain." -Unknown
"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent." -Calvin Coolidge
"The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense." ― Thomas A. Edison
"Don't ever give up. Don't ever give in. Don't ever stop trying. Don't ever sell out. And if you find yourself succumbing to one of the above for a brief moment, pick yourself up, brush yourself off, whisper a prayer, and start where you left off. But never, ever, ever give up."
― Richelle E. Goodrich, Eena, The Tempter's Snare
"Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life." -Revelation 2:10
"To sit patiently with a yearning that has not yet been fulfilled, and to trust that, that fulfillment will come, is quite possibly one of the most powerful "magic skills" that human beings are capable of. It has been noted by almost every ancient wisdom tradition." -Elizabeth Gilbert
"A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds; it seems to magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow absent before the change." -Earl Nightingale

After changing dorm rooms last night (due to the stench of poop and moldy feet) we didn't sleep much better. However got more sleep in than the two nights before so all good. Got 2 buses to the airport checked in and ate a KFC! Yes a KFC, felt naughty. Spent our last RM 2.60 on skittles and played the flavor guessing game.
On board a full flight to Manila which is reassuring to see everyone else still wants to go as well. Wondering if we are going to see any flooding and devastation. Our pilots name is Altitude hahahaha.
Landed and it was instantly apparent that what ever water there was had long since evaporated in this heat.
Got a bus from the airport to Manila center that took 3 and a half hours thanks to crazy Filipinos smashing into each other. Once there we walked through the now dark streets to get on the LRT. The woman wanted to search our bags before we got on. You have got to be kidding me, right?!? Nope, contents searched x4. Managed relatively easily to walk the rest of the way to the guest house and only struggled at the end when we walked past the concealed entrance three times. Was pretty run down and expensive but the place over the street was full and everywhere else was going to charge more.
Now are you ready for this? Went across the street and Victoria had a coke, 39Php. Jeremy had a bottle of San Miguel…… 31Php that's just £0.39 woop woop!
Hungry we went to get some food. Then tired we went back to try and book onward travel and sleep. Failed at both slightly. The room was god dam noisy and started to smell of piss at around midnight. Again so tired it didn't matter after a while.

Post provided by a guest contributor.
The news waves all over the country are getting more interesting, because more and more states are taking up the path of full legalization of marijuana for adults or those above the age of 21. While this is going on, the concepts of medical cannabis dispensaries and medical marijuana cards are becoming more popular.
This is against the old style of going recreational with marijuana. But what is the concept of a medical marijuana card really about — and what are the advantages that come with having such a card in a state where adult-use of the plant has been approved? Is there anything special in getting this card as one of the ways to get medical marijuana card? In this article, focus will be on answering this question so readers can have a very clear picture of what the advantages are.
There are those who will ask if the stress of going to a physician to get the medical marijuana card is still worth it, and there are others who will question why recreational style should not be considered. Well, without a doubt, the answer to this is in the affirmative. It is always far more beneficial to go for a medical marijuana card and these benefits are not limited to just one area but several areas. The subsequent sections of this article will explain more on this.
Reduced Taxes and More Affordability
By getting the medical marijuana card, one of the most remarkable benefits is that the states have made it far cheaper getting marijuana from these places. This is a very good thing for those who need their weed to get relief from very painful medical conditions. Without this provision, marijuana becomes incredibly expensive because insurance companies do not pay for it.
And if the classification of weed were to just remain as recreational and there was no room for medical dispensaries, the product will be taxed heavily, and the burden will fall on those who need it for genuine medical reasons. This is because the marijuana patients will have no other choice but to get the product from recreational joints.
But with the presence of medical nearest cannabis dispensaries, life is now a lot better and easier for the patients. They do not have to depend on the recreational hubs and suffer from the heavy prices. For instance, in Colorado, medical marijuana patients do not have to pay the 10% retail weed tax and the 15% excise tax that those who do not have the medical cards have to pay.
With the medical marijuana cards, you are able to get marijuana at a much more pocket-friendly price. This is a very good step in making medical care more affordable for everyone, particularly those who find themselves in this condition where they need weed to attend to their ailments. The good thing is that a number of states apart from Colorado, like California and Maine, also make this same provision for their medical marijuana patients. In these states, as long you have your medical marijuana card, you will benefit greatly from the tax incentives put in place by the government.
Increased Potency Range
As far as medical marijuana is concerned, the dose that you take is very crucial. As a matter of fact, many of the card holders are patients who need to take very potent cannabis to relieve them of the pain of their conditions. For areas where recreational weed is distributed, they do not care or bother about the potency levels of what they are selling. But the same thing does not apply to the medical dispensaries. They are under higher levels of scrutiny by the regulatory agencies, so they have no other choice but to be more precise and accurate in their potency labels. A very good example of how this works out is in California where the law limits the recreational shops to just one thousand milligrams of cannabinoids per package sold.
But the same thing is not applicable to the medical dispensaries as they are allowed to sell marijuana packages that have up to twice the levels of potency of the ones sold in recreational joints. What that means is that it is always a better option to get the medical marijuana card when one is taking the cannabis to address some underlying medical conditions. Even though these levels of potency differ from state to state, the thing that is common to them all is that they make special provisions for the medical dispensaries and allow them to have higher levels of potency for their products.
Age Limits for Young Patients
By law, the recreational joints are allowed to sell marijuana to anyone who can prove to be older than 21. Even if this sounds cool, it means kids under the age limit who need it for medical reasons cannot get it. This is not the case with medical dispensaries.

On the same day the Mueller report went public, CIA Director Gina Haspel made a rare public appearance at Auburn University outlining the Central Intelligence Agency's new priority to better understand "nation-state adversaries such as Russia and Iran," according to a new WSJ report.
Though she made no mention of the special council's now public report, she said the agency had made both Russia and Iran a central focus over the past year, shifting resources to these areas to better prepare for the threat.
"Our Russia and Iran investment has been strengthened after years of falling behind our justifiably heavy emphasis on counter-terrorism" in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, Haspel said in the remarks. "We still have a lot of work to do on that front, but we're making good progress," she added.
She mentioned new potential government adversaries "whether in Moscow, Tehran or Pyongyang" according to the WSJ's summary of the speech, but also pledged to put continued focus on threats from al-Qaeda and ISIS.
Significantly, it was only the second time the CIA chief had given public remarks since taking the director post last May. She's seen as having kept a low profile, given her clandestine service background and intelligence community tensions with the Trump White House.
Also interesting is her praise of Trump's engagement with North Korea's Kim Jong Un, per the WSJ:
On North Korea, the CIA director said Mr. Trump "has shown a lot of wisdom" in reaching out to leader Kim Jong Un in a bid to rid the country of its nuclear arms. "And that's not to downplay the difficulty or the obstacles and challenges associated with" the effort, she said.
In January, Mr. Trump clashed with his spy chiefs via Twitter after intelligence leaders, including Ms. Haspel, told a Senate panel that U.S. analysts were skeptical about Mr. Kim's willingness to give up his nuclear program.
On state actors like Russia, as well as resurgent terror groups, she stopped short of saying these threats were "existential," however.
But given her remarks revealing the CIA prioritizing efforts focused on Russia, it doesn't appear the Mueller report, which has now effectively debunked the past three years of "Moscow-centric national security threat hysteria," will make Washington's neo-Mccarthyite anti-Russia craze go away anytime soon.
