5 Things to Avoid for a Good Night's Sleep
Apartment Therapy's Home Remedies
As a mother of two tiny people, sleep is a topic that is very near and dear to my heart. Although I often worry that no matter what good habits I follow, I may never sleep again, it doesn't stop me from trying. Regardless of the reasons your slumber may be suffering, here are five important things to avoid in order to ensure a restful night of sleep.
1. A Busy Mind
Unwanted thoughts, anxiety, and worry are all top contributors to insomnia and restless sleep. To combat this, avoid working, watching television, paying bills, or writing your to-do list for the next day while in bed. Keep your bedroom clean and free of clutter — the last thing you want to do is to lay awake stressing about the giant pile of clothing littering the floor or the giant dust bunnies slowly taking over the room. If you must read in bed, avoid reading books for work — make sure you reserve the bed for pleasure reading only.
2. Light
Anything that emits light, no matter how dim, has to go. Don't keep LED alarm clocks, your phone, or a night light right by your bed. Turn off the television and laptop at least one hour before hitting the hay, and use room darkening shades to block out any street lights or lights from your neighbor's house.
3. An Upset Stomach
Diet plays a big part in sleep. Here are a few key things to steer clear of in the hours immediately before bed:
- Eating or drinking caffeine
- Eating spicy foods
- Drinking alcohol
- Going to bed too full or too hungry
- Drinking too much liquid before bed
4. A Restless Body
An unhappy body can make it just as difficult to drift off into dreamland as a busy mind. Eschew anything that causes too much stimulation, discomfort, or irregularity, such as:
- Late evening exercise
- Strenuous cleaning right before bed (I, for one, am perfectly okay with this rule!)
- Cigarette smoking
- Uncomfortable temperatures
- Bad sleeping posture
- An irregular sleeping routine
- Suspenseful or thrilling television shows and movies (sorry Walking Dead fans — you may want to record it on your DVR and watch it a little earlier the following day!).
5. Disruptions
Make it a priority to recognize and then avoid or find a remedy for any of the recurring things that disrupt your sleep regularly. Pets or children in your bed (my three-year-old tends to lay horizontally and kick me in the face — probably not the best way to get a restful night's sleep), a snoring partner, a neighbor's barking dog, or a beeping cell phone are all things that can prevent you from entering into the deep sleep that your body needs to feel truly rested.
What do you avoid to ensure that you get a good night's sleep? We'd love to hear your tips and tricks!

I SO agree re. exercising too close to bedtime. Even a leisurely walk will keep me awake. Also, I never eat after 7 p.m. (It always amazes me when I pass restaurants at 9 & 10 p.m. and see people inside eating late dinners. Insomnia in the making!
I love the wall mounted light. Where is it from? My house is tiny and anything that can be moved off surfaces is a bonus.
What has absolutely saved my life from ALL these problems: ear plugs. I use wax ones from France called Quies. I get them from:
The Earplug Superstore - Quies.
There are a number of wax earplugs but Quies are the best. NEVER get the dark blue ones (Mighty Plugs)! I had one break in half in my ear and had to go to the emergency room to get it removed and the seller refused to give me my money back. Quies don't do that :)
Of course I make sure that my husband knows to be alert for sounds that I can't hear.
And seriously- get the TV OUT of the bedroom!!! Too much stimulation from violence, the stressful drama of other people's problems, commercials screaming at you to buy their products (is it a coincidence that sleep aid products are being hawked at the same time you are supposed to be settling down?), news reports warning that the world & all its inhabitants are doomed to a life of poverty & crime only to be annihilated in the end by home invasions & terrorists.... I'm getting stressed just from typing this! And don't forget the most important reason of all as to why it's better to jettison the tv from the bedroom- if you are in a relationship & sharing your bed with someone then why the heck would you want them to be checking out the big busted woman or six pack ab guy on the tv screen?! And why are YOU checking someone else out?! Get the tv out of the room & turn to each other & say: "THANK YOU for being in my life! Thank you for being part of my successful day & thank you for allowing me the honor of being part of yours. Thank you for being here with me to keep me safe & secure through the night." If THAT doesn't erase away the cares of the day then I don't know what will. We settle in by sharing cups of lemon-ginger tea, low lighting (not candles! they look all romantic in the movies but in reality they are a stress to light, then you have to go around blowing them all out, blah! too much work!), and pleasant conversations about joyful moments from the day. Works for us. (And we think the other is way hotter than any botox injected, plastic surgery enhanced, hair extended, spray painted "hottie" on tv!!! woo!)
Also, buy a good mattress and pillow and use calming colors in your decor. Oh, and keep the room reasonably cleaned up.
1) under Busy Mind: Keep your bedroom clean and free of clutter.
I'd take it one step further, if possible: Let your bedroom be for sleeping and changing clothes only. No desks or craft tables in it. Let it be a sanctuary of calm.
well it's just not practical to get rid of led alarm clocks for most people. A simple solution I have is just tossing a tshirt or sweatshirt over the light from the clock, but it's still on to wake me up.
I agree with the above comment, but have realized that sleeping only is better...beter to have a dressing room for clothing storage outside of the bedroom, even if that makes a smaller room become the bedroom...less stuff, less clutter, less distraction in the bedroom...all that clothing and shoe and related items storage, elsewhere.
I can't sleep in a totally dark room, or better yet wake up in one. And I can walk in the house from a run and fall directly asleep. So to each their own.
No one said take a sleeping pill!
you guys NEED to write about a variety of subjects. this is annoying lol it's all about sleep today!
While this goes against #1, I pretty much always have 'to-do' lists floating around in my head at night. To combat this I keep my daily journal & a pen next to my bed. I write down whatever's in my head and I can get to it the next day - no fear of forgetting some brilliant idea or to pick up dry cleaning the next day. It's out of my head and I can finally get to sleep.
While I agree that having no lights on while you sleep is a good idea, I need my clock beside my bed. I don't use an alarm, I just wake up. But I don't wake up at exactly the same time every day, so I need to be able to see the time so that I won't stay in bed too long, or so that I know I can go back to sleep for an hour. I'd love to do away with the LED clock, but what would I substitute? It's so easy to just glance over at the clock and know what time it is and how much longer I can stay curled up and warm in bed on a cold winter's morning.
Last night I ate vindaloo right before going to bed and had terrible nightmares! I woke up at three am when the baby woke up and brought her into our bed (as I was too freaked out and groggy from the bad dreams)- then she proceeded to toss and roll around and kick me in the face for the rest of the night. So yes, two rules broken and I'm completely zonked.
I tip my blue LED alarm clock (I didn't know they are The Worst) face down with a wash cloth over it. I can still grope thru the washcloth to hit snooze or to turn the alarm off, or tip it up to check the time, but overall it does help limit the glare.)
@crushed red velvet -- nothing wrong with a daily theme -- skip what doesn't interest you and be glad it's not YOUR job to come up with fascinating things to talk about every day!
Ear plugs have saved my life. Figuratively. They've probably saved my marriage, though. Stil figuratively, but closer to literally.
I grew up battling insomnia and had to follow a lot of these tricks. Especially leaving the bedroom only for sleeping (well and that other thing). The more you do other tasks in bed, or even in the same room, the less your brain associates that room as purely for sleeping. I also use blackout blinds and curtains as any light can prevent deep sleep. I use my phone as an alarm but just keep it face down until it goes off in the morning, no alarm clocks with any visible read-outs. I also should (but often don't) stop using any electronic device at least an hour before bed; there's evidence to say that the blues & yellows emitted from electronics mimic daytime to your brain. About an hour before bedtime is the best time to completely wind down, give your brain time to actually go over all that you did today and need to do tomorrow and try to push out all the swirling thoughts just before you close your eyes.
Now I just need to figure out how to stop my boyfriend from snoring...
Emily, I so agree. My fiance has room darkening blinds (the European kind that completely darken a room) and I HATE them. I I like to have the natural morning light to wake me. I also like to be able to see my way to the bathroom in the middle of the night. His room (soon to be mine, too) is like a tomb--pitch black and cold. We have some negotiating to do.
I ALWAYS record "The Walking Dead" and watch it the next night right when I get home from work. Too distressing right before bed!
I keep an old, dark tee-shirt hidden in a basket on my nightstand and toss it over my alarm clock after setting it each night, so the light doesn't bother me. I use a combo of ear plugs and nature sounds on my mp3 to block noise. It's not really very noisy where I live, but I'm a very light sleeper so every bit helps.
If you have a lot of trouble with sleep, watch your caffeine impact as well. I've learned to my profound sadness that even chocolate desserts too late at night can disrupt my sleep.
I agree with Scott42; it works for me to keep pen and paper on my bedside table to jot down that random thing that floats into my mind, because I absolutely will NOT remember it in the morning, so I WILL obsess about remembering it and not sleep.
Yes, bedroom as clean and clutter-free as possible, air circulation (I think that has something to do with my claustrophobia), but I've become used to the nightlight I keep on the other side of the bed for my almost 19 year old cat. Yeah, he probably doesn't need it, but it makes me feel better.
I avoid simple sugars or starches before bed. Although they initially make me sleepy, I end up feeling warm during the night. If I need a snack before a bed, I've found a spoonful of almond butter satisfies me without causing problems.
Exercising during the day also helps me to sleep better at night, as does a cool bedroom - which is why we always keep our windows open at night. As far as noise goes, unfortunately there's not much we can do about our neighbors late-night door-slamming, but we keep trying anyway. My sound machine helps to drown out some of the noise, just not the louder booms and bangs that startle us awake. Turning door knobs and shutting doors quietly makes a big difference.
Rub your hands with lavender (or whichever 'calming' scent appeals to you) scented soap, lotion, oil, etc. and breathe it in as you drift off. Personally a great justification to stock up on all things Aveda.
The room temperature should be listed among these tips as well. A too hot room is absolutely miserable to sleep in as is a room that is freezing cold. Getting the temps right can make a big difference.
I have always been a good sleeper (8-10 hours a night), and I have the worst sleeping habits. I keep the TV on with the volume turned low, and I regularly drink and smoke before bedtime. However, there are occasions when I find it hard to drift off, usually because my brain is still going a mile a minute. When that happens, I've found this technique works well: Clear your mind of everything, and focus on your breathing. With each exhale, imagine that you are sinking deeper and deeper into your mattress. Works like a charm!
Lots of good ideas! Feng shui suggests no mirrors to reflect your spirit as it rises above bed to sleep? That can be difficult in a small room. If you can't avoid it, I used to keep lovely scarves draped around the mirror and just cover it with them at night. Also no pointed edges of furniture pointing at you. I too use lavender lotion, a little at the temples and some on my neck. For me, no caffeine (tea, chocolate) after 2 pm or I can't get to sleep or keep waking up. I keep a journal by my bed like others do so I can write down the ideas so they won't keep swirling in my head. My BEST thing is my alarm - it is a little battery one, looks like a white and aqua baby ben, it is an Accurite. It has a gentle quiet ticking but is completely dark. However if you need to see the time at night, you just press on the snooze part and the dial lights up nicely. I LOVE this clock so no electronic light to deal with. Easy to bring with when you travel. And no worries about power outages! I've also seen suggestions to limit the amount of electricity and plug ins in the bedroom, especially up around your head. This can be a tricky one too. Sweet dreams everyone!
Instead of heavy blinds or blocking my clock, I get the darkness I need by wearing a sleep mask. It's easy as I'm starting to wake up just to push it part-way off my face and still get the benefit of morning light to help me wake up further.
Weird. I find eating carbs makes me sleepy. But not a full meal. Just less than a cup. Last night was rice and beans. What I do find annoying is brushing my teeth afterwards. :D
I've used a program called f.lux that changes the color temperature on my laptop to a warmer tone gradually starting near sundown. The theory is that the warmer hues help calm your brain as opposed to the blueish normal glow of electronics which is similar to sunlight. They explain it better on the website. It also helped me with eyestrain. I recommend it!
I sleep like a baby after The Walking Dead. I love it so much! I also like to take a hot bath right before bed. It relaxes my muscles and helps me fall asleep.
sleep mask, white noise machine, ceiling fan, duvet, dog, cat. I'm good.
Exercising close to bedtime is apparently more than OK - it could mean better sleep.
I keep old underwear to throw over the radio (which has a clock on it) and my answering machine (some of you younger readers may not know what that is, but it has a light on at all times) which really helps to darken the room. And, I put on classical music on the radio, at a low volume, and put on the "sleep" setting for 90 minutes.
I have an iHome (it's a dock, for my iPod) clock and they have a setting for the clock light that allows you to have it bright, dim and off. Mine is usually at off. I also have terrible sleep habits, but usually sleep well. I'm not a good housekeeper, so I have clutter all over the place. I eat whatever I want right before bed. And I keep my tablet next to my bed and use it right before going to sleep as well as during the night when I have bad dreams (I find the bright light helps chase away the monsters and using it gives me something else to think about)
This makes so much sense. I need to get my room to this!
Earplugs are my sleep saviour. And I finally, reluctantly, booted my dog and cats off the bed and out of the room, because our dog is a total bed hog and our cats have a tendency to play tag with each other over top of us while we sleep. Now our dog sleeps with one of my kids, and the cats sleep with my other kid, who says he doesn't mind occasionally having his feet attacked.
Also, if I have a lot of thoughts and "to do" items swirling around my brain, I get up and make a list. Offloading those thoughts to the next day really helps me.
I sleep best alone. So happy when I was able to take over DS's room when he left. I made the mistake when I brought him home from the hospital of bringing him to bed with us, out of pure desperation. I had a recurring nightmare every night for six months that I had rolled over and smothered him (which I later found out was a real possibility, duh). After a week of no sleep I realized that "The Family Bed" was a family nightmare. I let him cry it out in his crib, then spent 18 years waiting for college. Oh sure, I could have taken a pillow and put an end to that snoring, sneezing, wheezing, coughing (etc) person I still shared a bed with, but I'd have probably had nightmares about that, too.
Micheal Reed Gach's CD narrates Accupressure and Yoga exercises that really do help both the quality and quantity of my sleep: Sleep Better. http://amzn.com/1591790840
I also find a Cal/Mag drink can help sometimes too. And sometimes i just stop fighting sleeplessness - quiet solo time even a 4 or 5 AM can be precious. Sweet dreams.
I got black-out lining for my curtains, sleep with the small window open, and try to get a regular bedtime. No screens (tv, phones, laptops) before bed! A nice hot shower or bath is also good. I think high impact exercise before bed is not a good idea - I found I was wide awake and hyper after a late dance class. I find I can sleep better after something gentler like yoga or swimming, or if the dance class finishes earlier!
I have a battery powered travel digital alarm clock that has no backlight unless you press the snooze button. I've had several like this over the years, they're cheap, they last and they take up very little space on your bedside table.
kellyk, I have the room darkening shades too, because I tend to wake up when the sun comes up--and in the summer, that's about 4:30 am, which is a tad too early for me.
But the rest of the year, I only partially close the shades, leaving several inches of space at the bottom of the window. 1) This keeps the cats happy as they demand access to all windows, all the time and 2) allows just enough light in to let me wake up, and to allow for middle of the night bathroom trips without having to turn a light on. Turning on a light in the middle of the night is a sure way for me to get no sleep for the next several hours.
Absolutely the best improvement in my sleep came when I finally convinced my husband the doctor was right and he needed a CPAP machine. The machine is so quiet and I can fall back asleep without wanting to smother him anymore! ;)
Now to just get the kids to sleep as well as he does :)
Whatever the reason you don't sleep I am very sorry. Take it from one who has slept for two hour increments for the last 15 years. I am not over weight quite the opposite, I do not eat late into the evening, I do not watch tv til all hours of the night and am very picky about what I watch late BUT a auto accident changed my world forever with pain. SOOOO those of you on CPAP machines fix the problem that puts you there if you can, those that eat late set you eat schedule back one half hour a week and soon you will notice you sleep better, no acid reflux etc and you didn't even notice, if you must have a tv in your bedroom, set the timer for a reasonable time and when it goes off you do too. I am daily in sleep envy so take it from someone who DOES know about the lack of sleep. I wish you all sweet dreams!
Um, where can I get those wrinkly muslin sheets? Did a Google image search but didn't come up with anything.
Just made my own room for SLEEPING (w/o the hubby). He was a little upset, but I told him it was for SLEEPING & not personal. Now he loves having his own bed to sprawl & thrash & snore as much as he wants. He probably needs one of those machines, but unless I drag him to the doctor & plug him in every night, he won't ----his problem now ---- & I'm SLEEPING through the night now! ahhhhh......
Also kicked the animals out of bed..... ahhhhh..... LOVE them, but I'm the one who has to work for their food while they sleep peacefully all day!
I have a tiny little digital recording device that I use for memos. Keep it by the bed to record any nagging little thoughts/ideas ---- easier than writing when trying to drift off --- then I write it down the next day (or can plug into Mac & import).
I really should not watch WD on Sunday nights though! :-0

Not really my type of movie. It's not to bad though.
The horse is cool. lol
Not a bad movie. Most annoying part of the movie is when Johnny lights up a cigarette in just about every scene.
Good movie. I don't know why some people are complaining that it was not good.
A good movie. Allot of action.
Season 3…the wanderer. Good season. You have not see it? Well you are missing out. It's a really good show.
A few characters died, one… people are not to sure about.
Good season I say.
The ending was crazy.

It annoys me when people say this. If you say this, you're just a heterosexist ass who thinks that all gay men are a certain way and that acting differently from your stereotype makes the gay man to whom you refer superior. Chances are, you dislike the "typical gay man" because the stereotype you have involves gay men doing things that you typically see as things women do, which makes you a misogynist as well.

The already-baffling black holes offer another mindbender.
In Plato's "Allegory of the Cave," he imagines people chained in the darkness, forever in one position, unable to turn around or move their heads. A fire behind them, which they cannot see, casts flickering shadows on the wall before them; shadows of people walking by, animals, inanimate objects and of themselves. These two-dimensional, distorted illusions are all they know, and to them, this is reality. Some cosmologists think Plato's cave might be more than just a metaphor, but in reverse. The three-dimensional world we see around us might be a holographic projection generated by two-dimensional information processes unfolding on a distant boundary surface surrounding the universe.
Physicists Stephen Hawking and Jacob Bekenstein showed that the information storage capacity of a black hole isn't related to its volume, but rather to its surface, or the event horizon. As new matter and energy enter the black hole, the area of its surface increases in proportion to the amount of information it has absorbed. The unanswered question, which physicists have pursued for decades, is whether this is merely an effect or whether the information is actually stored on the black hole's surface. The consensus is that, at least when viewed from the outside, the information is probably stored at the event horizon. However, when viewed from the inside, everything in the black hole would appear normal, except for the crushing effects of its high gravity.
If everything in the universe is a three-dimensional projection, then like any hologram or even photo film, there should be a kind of "graininess" when you look closely enough.
How does this relate to everything being a hologram? As physicist Brian Greene points out in his book "The Hidden Reality," "This doesn't merely highlight a peculiar feature of black holes. Black holes don't just tell us about how black holes store information. Black holes inform us about information storage in any context." The information required to describe the contents of any given region of space can be fully encoded on a surface surrounding that region. So perhaps that surface, such as the event horizon of a black hole — or the edge of the universe, is where all the real action is, and what's seen from an inside observer point of view is a holographic projection of a two-dimensional process taking place on that distant surface. If it turns out to be true for a black hole, it might be true for the universe as well.
Attempts have been made to actually test this hypothesis, with mixed results. If everything in the universe is a three-dimensional projection, then like any hologram or even photo film, there should be a kind of "graininess" when you look closely enough. One experiment found this sort of pixilation at 10-16 meters, while another found no sign of grain all the way down to 10-48 meters, which is 10 trillion times smaller than the "plank length" — the smallest unit of length in quantum mechanics. Both these results can't be right, so we just don't know. Maybe the graininess is forever beyond our ability to detect, if it exists. Even if the holographic principle doesn't apply to the universe, it's still a fascinating topic and very useful in understanding quantum mechanics and the weird properties of black holes.

1. Scope
1.1 This practice establishes procedures for assessing the exposure of workers to airborne fibers who perform repetitive tasks of short duration in which small quantities of asbestos-containing materials must be disturbed to perform maintenance and installation activities. 1.2 This practice describes the facilities and equipment for performing the tasks under controlled conditions for the express purpose of collecting personal air samples to determine worker exposure. The tasks are performed on actual asbestos-containing materials during exposure assessment tests and precautions are taken for personal protection and avoiding contamination of adjacent spaces. 1.3 This practice describes the air sample collection procedures, the analytical methods for the air samples, and the calculation of worker exposure including the use of statistical confidence limits. The results are applied to the current job as defined herein for determining worker protection such as respiratory protection or for other purposes as determined by the competent person responsible for the current job. 1.4 The results of the tests shall not be applied to current jobs that are expected to differ substantially from the test conditions in work practices, material properties, or other factors that might affect the concentration of airborne asbestos fibers. 1.5 This practice is not intended to be used for asbestos abatement work for which the objective is the removal of asbestos-containing materials. It is designed to assess exposures for short-term repetitive tasks. Compliance with regulatory requirements as to the purpose of the work and limits on the quantity of asbestos-containing materials disturbed is the responsibility of the user. 1.6 Hazards-Asbestos fibers are acknowledged carcinogens. Breathing asbestos fibers can result in disease of the lungs including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. Precautions should be taken to avoid breathing airborne asbestos particles from materials known or suspected to contain asbestos. See 2.2 for regulatory requirements addressing asbestos. 1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
Work is routinely performed during maintenance and installation of equipment when small amounts of asbestos-containing materials are disturbed for short periods of time. This is not asbestos abatement for the purpose of removing asbestos; the disturbance is incidental but necessary to performing the maintenance or installation task. The OSHA Construction Industry regulations for assessing worker exposure during such tasks are interpreted in different ways by different people, and there is a need to standardize the methodology for conducting tests under controlled conditions, analyzing the air sample data, determining statistical confidence limits for comparison with the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limits and other criteria, and providing guidance to the employers competent person for determining respiratory protection requirements for work covered by exposure assessments.

Animated Double Exposures
A thought is a pulsation force that appears in our minds, and it comes from our experiences in our world. Those thoughts seem, at times, to be all over the place, but sometimes we can experience moments of lucidity where we can see a clear picture on how our mind navigates. Finally we can contemplate ourselves, the actual present and feel.

Eminem Opens Up About Drug Addiction, Recoveryby Hilton Hater at . Comments
The bigger the crowd, the bigger my habit got.
So says Eminem in the latest issue of GQ, as the rapper holds little back when discussing the addiction that almost got him killed.
"I'm very much a creature of habit," the artist tells the magazine. "If I'm used to waking up in the morning and having [a Red Bull], I could do it every morning for the next ten years straight until I find something else to move on to. So if I'm used to taking a Vicodin when I wake up in the morning because I'm hungover from drinking or taking pills."
Pick up GQ for a lot more from Eminem's interview's, excerpts from which we've posted below.On a stint in rehab: "Every addict in rehab feels like everyone's staring at them. With me? Everyone was staring at me."
On finally seeking help: "I had a feeling in my arm that was weird, man. Like, it really freaked me out. So I went to some people I trust and said, 'Look, I know I need help. I'm ready now.' I got a room in the same hospital where I overdosed, and I detoxed."
On addiction: "I wish I was wired like a regular person and could go have a f-ckin' drink,. But that's the biggest thing about addiction: When you realize that you cannot f-ck around with nothing ever again. I never understood when people would say it's a disease. Like, 'Stop it, dickhead. It's not a disease!' But I finally realized it really is."
Eminem`s a fighter! Love you!
i luv eminem.he is my best raper nd will always be
im glad you comed to realize that it is a disease, i have lost two brother's and a sister to overdoses. and as you have been there myself thank you for your encourgeing words
Well some people are not able to do it without tons of help and support such as rehab. That's why we as people have various personalities... It's a personal achievement to b able to wing yourself off however I can't help but think then were u really an addict if you decided one day to quit? Nope, not really. An addict is some who cannot quit and needs extra help. It's like Autism. Autism is not a disease its a persuasive developmental disorder...so many people do not understand disorder from disease; so in theory, alcoholism and drug addiction CAN b a disease, depending on ones personality in addition to their family's history and that's why its labeled disease because it is inherited( just like hiv and aids can b passed down)
Addiction is a disease ... 40% of people are born with the gene all you have to do is find what hits the sweet spot and youre hooked and it does last forever ... You cant just shoot heroin one more time or have one more drink ... Youll be right back where you were 2 or 22 years ago doesnt matter thats what makes it a DISEASE PEOPLE!
I disagree him Em on addiction being a disease. I was once a drug addict but through personal responsiblity & discipline, I am proud to say I am 17 years sober and have conquered my addiction. Unfortunately, I was diagnosed with cancer 2 years ago. The difference is addiction is a choice. If drugs were a disease, I would still be an addict, which I am clearly not. I now have cancer, not a choice & I will have this disease (cancer) for the rest of my life. A disease lasts forever... A lifestyle choice can be changed. I'm living proof
Em is my fav rapper this man got plenty rap artist beat then also hes a handsum whiteboy keep ur head up em u rock
Yaaaay! I love Em. He can do no wrong in my book. Glad he's getting the help he needs.
good luck in your rehab...I'll be celebrating 20 years in recovery,tomorrow...one day at a time...

The news continues to pour out about the Aurora, Colorado, shooting at the new Batman movie.
|The suspect, James Holmes
A 24-year-old, 6 foot man, James Holmes was taken into custody. Police found him behind the theater just after the shooting.
We're finding more out about the suspect. The Associated Press has details about Holmes recently dropping out of medical school. ABC News also has similar information about the suspect.
On a bit of a different note as people clamor to find a picture of the suspect ... interestingly, there are several people named James Holmes in the Aurora area. One James Holmes in that area is telling people he is not the shooter. Read his post here.
Police also indicate that a bomb was found inside the theater.
Springfield Police plan to have an increased presence in theaters. Read that story here.
As I've been saying on the air, we really should keep our emotions in check and not to jump to "policy" changes because of this "Lone Wolf".
With that, keep in mind that this incident will be used to push for gun control. As my radio program Saturday Session has been discussing for the past couple of weeks (hear those segments with the Saturday Session podcast page), the Arms Trade Treaty is weeks away from being signed by President Obama. Will this tragedy be used to secure support for the treaty? Most definitely! And, again, we should work to not overreact to this incident with a suppression of our Second Amendment.
Also, more than the associations of the suspect or his philosophies, we should consider whether or not the suspect was on medication. Read more about how certain prescription drugs can cause violent behavior here. The issue of these types of pharmaceutical drugs being used by mass shooters too often gets overshadowed by the media. We must work to understand this issue more.
In a bizarre type of foreshadowing, a 1985 Batman comic book shows an eerie scene of a man killing people inside a theater. See that comic strip below.

text: Posted 25, November, 2009 Back last month Sara and I went to Louisville to hear TV chef, world-traveler, and total bad-ass Anthony Bourdain speak. During the Q & A portion of the night someone asked Bourdain what he would choose to eat as his last meal. Bourdain actually seemed to think about the question - which was odd to me because I would assume this was the kind of question he would get all the time. His answer was bone marrow on crusty bread with a pinch of sea salt. It was such an interesting answer I decided that moment I had to try it eventually. Several weeks later and a call to local butcher and I had my marrow bones. Cooking them is really easy; fifteen minutes in a 450 degree oven. The taste was very rich. A little fatty. The texture was a lot like an oyster. The whole experience was kind of oyster-ish. I couldn't get Sara to partake. I really enjoyed them but I don't know that I'd choose them as my last meal. That's honor is still reserved for a Little Debbie Swiss Roll and a can of Mountain Dew. #food #bourdain #bone marrow

Parents can refuse to vaccinate their children on the basis of religious beliefs or other values, even if studies show they are exposing children to increased health risks. But the state should be allowed to require that parents acknowledge the risks associated with not vaccinating.
This balance between religious freedom and parental rights and the state's responsibility to ensure public health and safety — especially when it comes to protecting infants — is being waged between Hasidic Jews and the City of New York over an informed consent requirement for an ancient circumcision rite. The battle pits religious freedom and parental rights against the states interest to inform the public of health and safety concerns.
Metzitzah b'peh (MBP) is an ancient religious practice whereby a trained rabbi, called a mohel, completes a circumcision by orally sucking out the blood from a baby's penis wound. Hasidic groups often perform this ritual through mouth contact, whereas Modern Orthodox Jews use indirect suction, through a sterile tube or sponge, to reduce the risk of infection.

Thomas Sowell: Who shut down the government?
This is not a matter of opinion. You can check the Congressional Record.
But the whole point of having a division of powers within the federal government is that each branch can decide independently what it wants to do or not do, regardless of what the other branches do, when exercising the powers specifically granted to that branch by the Constitution.
Perhaps the biggest of the big lies is that the government will not be able to pay what it owes on the national debt, creating a danger of default. Tax money keeps coming into the Treasury during the shutdown, and it vastly exceeds the interest that has to be paid on the national debt.
None of this is rocket science. But unless the Republicans get their side of the story out — and articulation has never been their strong suit — the lies will win. More important, the whole country will lose.

In a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Senator Mike Lee and a dozen of his Republican colleagues wrote that they "believe[d] the only way to avert disaster is to fully repeal Obamacare and start over with a more sensible, practical approach to reforming our healthcare system." They plan to vote against a continuing resolution that funds further implementation or enforcement of Obamacare. How much support is there for repeal and starting over?
Views on the law: Most polls show that more Americans disapprove of Obamacare than approve. In a June Gallup poll, for example, 52% disapproved while 44% approved. In a July NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 34% said Barack Obama's health care plan was a good idea and 47% a bad one. In the July CBS News poll, 36% approved, while 54% disapproved. The Kaiser Family Foundation asks people about the strength of their feelings, and around 30% in monthly surveys since April 2010 say they have very unfavorable views of the law. Only 15% now have very favorable views. But disapproval does not equal repeal or starting over. On this point, the polls are more complicated.
Consequences: In the NBC/WSJ poll, 45% said that if Republicans in Congress believe the health care law is harmful and will have negative consequences for individuals, small business, and the economy they should continue to do everything they can to prevent it from being put into effect, while 51% said now that Obamacare is the law and the Supreme Court has upheld it, that Republicans should stop trying to block it and move on to other priorities. In a Fox News July poll of registered voters, 40% said that if they were given the opportunity to vote, they would vote to keep it in place, while 53% said they would vote to repeal.
Congressional action: In the CBS poll, when asked what they would like Congress to do about the law, 20% said expand it, 16% keep the entire law as it is, 18% repeal the part of the law that requires Americans to obtain health insurance, but keep the rest of the law intact, while 39% wanted to repeal the entire law.
Fox has asked a four-part question, too, and finds similar results in its latest poll from June. In it, 19% wanted to leave the law as it is, 17% expand it, 19% repeal parts of it, and 39% repeal all of it. The "leave as is" and "expand" responses have been remarkably stable in the nine earlier identical questions.
Our bottom line: Based on close readings of hundreds of polls on health care, we believe that somewhere between 30% and 40% are probably hard supporters of repeal.

Featuring Italian model Mariacarla Boscono, as styled by Panos Yiapanis. The complete film airs tomorrow on Barneys.com.
Erwin Blumenfeld (1897 – 1969) was a famous American photographer of German origin.
Erwin Blumenfeld, a sought-after fashion photographer in the 1940s and '50s, working for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, and also for artistic nude photography, who immigrated to New York by way of Berlin, Amsterdam and Paris, with a detour in several French internment camps. Blumenfeld was a polymath. He could paint, write and draw; and, in the spirit of his age, he excelled at collage, later photomontage, cutting and pasting as a way to make sense of the world.
When the Second World War broke out, he was interned in French camps as an alien, but was eventually allowed to leave for New York in 1941. He became a US citizen in 1946. His more personal work is in black and white; his commercial work in fashion, much for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, is mostly in color. In both media he was a great innovator. In black and white he did all his work personally in the dark room. In color he drew on his extensive background in classical and modern painting. He married Lena Citroen in Holland in 1921 and had three children there: Lisette, Henry Alexander and Frank Yorick. He died in Rome on July 4th, 1969.
Given how much of contemporary art now relies on appropriation, and how much photography is manipulated to falsify reality, it's interesting to look back at Blumenfeld's early attempts at editorializing. The Dada philosophy said that anyone can make art. His early films and experiments are also very influential thanks to showstudio posting some of his work below.

WHAS11.com comprehensive election coverage on our election page
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- A contentious campaign season gave way to a relatively quiet Election Day, as voters across Kentucky headed to the polls on Tuesday to settle one of the most acrimonious political races in the country.
Republican Rand Paul defeated Democrat Jack Conway after they spent months in a heated contest to become the state's new U.S. senator, one of dozens of positions being decided in the state.
Also being decided were all six of Kentucky's congressional seats, along with mayoral offices in Louisville and Lexington, 19 state Senate seats, 100 state House seats and local races by the score.
There was heavy traffic at the polls in Louisville and some surrounding counties, and officials expected turnout across the state to be around 48 percent.
"The turnout is heavy in Jefferson and surrounding counties; for the rest of the state, it's pretty steady," said Les Fugate, spokesman for the secretary of state's office. "That doesn't cause us to alter our turnout predictions at all. It just feeds into what we thought might happen."
The state's election-fraud hot line received 212 calls, including 35 from Jefferson County, the state's largest. Several counties had claims of vote buying, including four complaints in Perry County and two in Knott County, the state attorney general's office reported.
The calls represented an uptick from the May primary, when the office fielded 126 calls. The office received 272 calls on Election Day two years ago.
Fugate said there were lines in some places, particularly those that use electronic ballots. In more than 45 of Kentucky's 120 counties, voters were getting their first chance to use the digital scan voting system, designed to make tabulating faster on election night.
The machines, however, also make voting slower. Fugate said several precincts in Fayette County requested additional machines to deal with turnout.
Glitches were few. Both machines in a Lexington-area precinct were down for about 45 minutes before being repaired, one of several very minor problems reported across the state.

ANAHEIM – If it had not been made clear before now, the Ducks' Sami Vatanen showed Sunday night that he knows his way around a power play.
Vatanen scored twice with the man advantage Sunday night to back goalie Frederik Andersen's first career shutout as the Ducks won their fifth straight, a 3-0 decision over the St. Louis Blues at Honda Center.
Two days after dipping into the Western Conference fray with a tight 2-1 win over Minnesota, the Ducks (5-1-0) had no problem handling another fellow Stanley Cup contender that was coming off a 6-1 rout of Arizona on Saturday night.
"We're starting to play like we want to," said Andersen, who stopped 28 shots. "Our last game wasn't the best but we got the job done. We came strong in this game and played well defensively and offensively the whole 60 minutes.
"That was a really good effort today."
It was Vatanen who provided the offensive juice for the Ducks (5-1-0), scoring in the first and second periods for his first two-goal game in the NHL. The offensive-minded Finnish defenseman entered the season as a full-time regular for the first time.
Vatanen put in his first goal of the early season when he took a slap shot from the point that whizzed by Blues goalie Brian Elliott as rookie William Karlsson provided a screen in front. His second came on an open one-timer off a pass from Getzlaf.

So, question… I'm kind of confused. Could you clear this up for me? The registration time on here says they will have Wed. open from 8am-8pm. But the app says nothing about registration for Wed. Could you guys please try to make sure that your info for the app and the website ACTUALLY correspond with eachother? Its really confusing seeing one thing on the app and a different thing on the website. Please work on making things more clear and have a better flow to them.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Soooo, the program just put out has this on p. 16 under Autograph Row & Photo ops: "Stars such as Nathan Fillion, Karl Urban, William Shatner, and Sir Patrick Stewart, will be available for signings…"
I realize that there will be errors, but is there something going on that we haven't heard of about a certain "mystery" guest who goes by the name of SIR PATRICK STEWART? I guess I'm simply curious as to whether he was a hopeful that didn't get booked or if he was a mystery guest with the POTENTIAL to show up?

Feedback on the guide
1) You have panels scheduled on Thursday starting @ 12 with VIP entrance starting @ 12 and regular @ 1. Is that correct we have VIP only panels since regular admission will not get to enter until 1?
2) General admission for Saturday is 10 AM and you have Nathan Fillion @ 10 AM. Don't you think waaaaaaay to many people will be still trying to get inside at 10 to see Nathan?
3) On the App Thursday 2-3:30 Room 255D Jidai Training. But not in the Program Guide but on the Master Panel List.. Heck I do not see Room 255D on the Program Guide at all.
4) In looking over the APP and the Master Panel List here, I believe other items are missing from the Program Guide as well.
Thank you for the feedback, may the Force be with you!

Late last night while everyone was watching the NFL playoffs (me included), Fox Sports Ken Rosenthal came out with his latest news and notes column. One interesting tidbit of information was at the end of it.
"Don't be surprised if the Diamondbacks trade right-hander J.J. Putz following their addition of former White Sox closer Addison Reed. Putz is signed for $7 million in 2014, and the D-backs most likely would be required to accept a comparable salary in return.
Yankees outfielder Ichiro Suzuki, earning $6.5 million, could be one possibility, though it is not known whether Yankees ownership would part with Suzuki or how he would adjust to a backup role."
Would that make sense for the New York Yankees? Let's delve into it.
For starters, Putz would give the Yankees another arm in the bullpen, and one with closer experience, though he's one in decline. His fastball last year dropped below 92 MPH to 91.7 according to Fangraphs. In fact, it's dropped every year since 2010 when he was at 94 MPH. His strikeout percentage dropped from a shade over 29 percent to 27 percent last year, though his ground ball rate went up to 50 percent which would serve him well in Yankee Stadium. There are some injury concerns as well, as he only pitched 34 innings last season.
For the Diamondbacks, the fit would be a bit odd. They just added Mark Trumbo this season to play left. A.J. Pollock will be in center. Gerardo Parra will be in right, with Cody Ross coming back from injury during the season. The salaries are comparable so that won't be a concern and both are expiring contracts.
For the Yankees to do this, they would have to believe that they can't add Grant Balfour or Fernando Rodney in free agency. They also wouldn't be able to trade Brett Gardner for a starter on top of this deal, because even if you move Alfonso Soriano to left, your DH becomes a hole, unless you go back into the free agent market, something I'm not sure the Yankees want to do.
It's a nice thought, however, I can't see this one going down.
