The Rise and Fall of the Dollar, or When did the Dollar Replace Sterling as the Leading Reserve Currency?
We present new evidence on the currency composition of foreign exchange reserves in the 1920s and 1930s. Contrary to the presumption that the pound sterling continued to dominate the U.S. dollar in central bank reserves until after World War II, we show that the dollar first overtook sterling in the mid-1920s. This suggests that the network effects thought to lend inertia to international currency status and to create incumbency advantages for the dominant international currency do not apply in the reserve currency domain. Our new evidence is similarly incompatible with the notion that there is only room in the market for one dominant reserve currency at a point in time. Our findings have important implications for our understanding of interwar monetary history but also for the prospects of the dollar and the euro as reserve currencies.

Case History [Import](Bonus Tracks)
Product notities
Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1972 album from the late British singer/songwriter, originally issued on John Peel's Dandelion Records label. Having recorded two multi-faceted, blues-influenced albums with Siren, Coyne was exposed on Case History as a brutally emotional singer/songwriter who wrote with conviction and sang from the depth of his very soul. Case History offers a fascinating glimpse into an artist in his prime, who would inspire John Lydon, Sting, Ben Watt and Will Oldham and would collaborate with Robert Wyatt, Andy Summers, Dagmar Krause, Brendan Croker, Gary Lucas and the Mekons' Jon Langford.

Lighting Levels
The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 oblige employers to provide workplace lighting that is "suitable and sufficient", which should be natural light, so far is "reasonably practicable".
No regulations exist that prescribe lighting levels in the workplace. The regulations do not define what is "suitable and sufficient" so to provide guidance the Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers, CIBSE, provide a SLL LIGHTING GUIDE 7: Office Lighting which gives lighting requirements for office area. This is also replicated in BS EN 12464-1:2002 Light and lighting - Lighting of work places - Part 1: Indoor work places.
In section 5.3 of the british standard document, it provides a very thorough and detailed list of the recommended lighting levels in many different industries and locations. We have summarised a few of the more relevant suggestions
Area | Illuminance (lux) |
Circulation areas and corridors | 100 |
Circulation areas with stairs or similar | 150 |
Canteens and other busy areas | 200 |
Exercise areas | 300 |
General office space, rooms for medical attention | 500 |
Detailed work such as the drawing offices | 750 |
Very detailed work such as quality control | 1000 |
Fine work or colour matching | 1000 + |
Should you like the recommended values for a specific area then please feel free to contact us and we can provide those details or alternatively purchase the lighting guides above.

Watch the Bollywood film 'Mera Haque' (1986) Starring Sanjay Dutt, Anita Raj, Raza Murad, Ramesh Deo, Gulshan Grover, Bindu & Shakti Kapoor. Directed & Written by Ajay Kashyap. Produced by Bobby Raj & Music Directed by Anu Malik.
Synopsis: Aristocratic Amar Singh is the heir to his princely estate, left behind by late father, who had re-married a cruel and calculating woman, Ranimaa, and has been mismanaging the estate for her own personal gain, with the help of her brother, Dhartiprasad, her Diwan and his son. When she finds out that Amar is interfering in this process, she has him killed by planting a time-bomb in his car. After sometime, differences arise between Ranimaa and Dhartiprasad, and Dhartiprasad is asked to leave. Alone, homeless, and alcoholic, Dhartiprasad comes across a look-alike of Amar Singh, whose name is Amru Dada, a hoodlum. Dhartiprasad persuades Amru to impersonate Amar, and takes him to the palace, where both are able to prove that he is the real prince, who had somehow survived the accident. None of them know that Amru has an agenda of his own, and has not intention of sharing any of his new-found wealth and status with any one.

Heartbreak HouseWhen Ellie Dunn joins a house-party at the home of the eccentric Captain Shotover, she causes a stir with her decision to marry for money rather than love, and the Captain s forthright daughter Hesione protests vigorously against the pragmatic young woman s choice. Opinion on the matter quickly divides and a lively argument about money and morality, idealism and realism ensues as Hesione s rakish husband, snobbish sister and Ellie s fianc a wealthy industrialist enter the debate. Written between 1916 and 1917 as war raged across Europe, Heartbreak House is a telling indictment of the generation responsible for the First World War. With its bold combination of high farce and bitter tragedy, Shaw s play remains an uncannily prophetic depiction of a society on the threshold of an abrupt awakening. |

Posted by Alicia Sell
It is summertime and many families are getting ready to go on vacation. In fact, as I write this, we are heading out on one of our biggest vacations to date – Hawaii.
We are going on a once-in-a-lifetime trip with Randall's family, which includes his parents and his older brother, Corey. That means a lot of people and a LOT of packing to keep organized.
So today I will share with you my completely unsolicited advice on how to efficiently pack for a big family vacation.
You may be asking yourself, "Why is Alicia an expert on this subject?"
Well, to be honest friends, I don't know that I fall into the category of "expert" but I do travel a lot for work and I love to be in charge of big organizing projects such as this (I have been called "bossy pants" from time to time) so I like to think of myself as a highly skilled traveler who likes to share advice.
So here, in no particular order, is my advice on how to pack for trips, whether big or small. I should mention that this advice is somewhat specific to air travel, though similar rules can be applied for any kind of vacation. And, if you would like to see how we are doing on our exciting summer adventure, follow us on Instagram or Facebook. Happy travels!
1. Lists are your best friend
Since I was in kindergarten I have been a lover of list making. It drives Randall crazy, but it is my fool-proof way of making sure everything that is needed gets packed. My lists are very detailed. I list out the exact number of under pants, socks, short and shirts that are needed. I jot down how many days will require fancy, slightly fancy or casual attire. I list out every possible toiletry that needs to be packed, including cotton balls. This seems silly, but having traveled overseas and finding out how hard it can be to replace necessities, making sure you have everything is really critical.
When the kids were little I used these lists to pack their stuff but now they are old enough to pack for themselves (hooray!). I still double check to make sure they each get everything on their lists, but they have become pretty good at pulling their lists together themselves.
2. Lay everything out in neat piles on your bed
Laying everything out on the bed really helps you to see if you are missing anything. It also gives you the chance to organize your suitcase efficiently. I organize mine by the days that I know I will wear outfits, so I just need to grab the next thing off the top. Also, I always pack a pair of PJs on top so I can get comfortable as soon as I get to the hotel. Not too complicated.
3. Bring a laundry bag
My kids throw dirty clothes EVERYWHERE. The concept of keeping their personal stuff organized in a neat pile is foreign to them. In fact, it is our trademark to leave at least one sock behind on all of our journeys. Our hotel room always turns into a jumbled mess where no one knows which clothes are dirty and which are clean. I finally figured out that if I packed a laundry bag and said that it is where everyone needs to puts their dirty clothes, the mounds of mess are reduced by 75%. We will still leave at least one sock behind, but that is okay with me.
4. Don't bring your entire closet
Every time I travel I panic that I need to bring everything in my closet in order to feel comfortable on a trip. The truth is having a big heavy suitcase and tons of stuff to keep track of equates to a ton of unnecessary stress. Pack only what you need, and think about ways to use items multiple times on a trip. For instance, jeans can be worn more than once. Can I wear that sweater a couple of times? Do I need 5 pairs of shoes? Probably not. I know this seems odd, but fewer options means less stress and more time to enjoy your adventure.
5. Take one thing out of your bag
I read this in a flight magazine once and I thought it was so strange. But the truth is, even if I pack light, I rarely end up using everything that I bring. So, just as Coco Channel said to remove one piece of jewelry before leaving the house, I encourage you to take one item out of your suitcase before heading to the airport. For me, I removed my fancy sandals. I love them a lot and I know I could have found a reason to wear them, but I didn't really need them.
6. Pack a light carry-on…and only one
As a frequent traveler I realized that you want to have just the right amount of stuff in a carry-on bag. I also realized that having a purse and a carry-on is a pain to keep track of so I never bring a purse on the plane with me. I condense everything into one bag that myy purse usually goes into. There are some essentials that I make sure to always have:
- A light sweater
- A scarf. This sounds odd, but I have a favorite infinity travel scarf that I always bring with me. It was a present from my mom and it is a lifesaver. On past trips it has served as a pillow, neck warmer and a blanket.
- Socks (if I am not wearing them).
- An e-reader, book or magazine. Or, if you are a nerd like me, all three.
- A pen. Just in case you need to fill out forms.
- Hand cream (Kiehl's is my absolute favorite)
- Chewing gum. I know this sounds strange, but chewing gum while taking off or landing really helps relieve pressure in your ears. This is especially good when traveling with little ones who are bothered by the change in pressure.
- A hat.
- 1 change of underclothes. (just in case your checked bags get lost).
7. Little kids get to wheel their own suitcase
I have no idea why, but little kids (up to age 18) love to have their own suitcase. They love wheeling it around. This can be frustrating, but it is also a great way to keep them entertained. I learned the hard way to be patient, let them wheel it till their arms hurt, and then offer to take over if they get tired. They give it up pretty easily, but sometimes it can take up to 45 minutes of painfully slow rolling through the airport. It is a small price to pay to make sure your little one feels like they have an important role in this big family trip.

I spend my mornings writing the memoir and my afternoons running all over town buying tub toys and cloth diapers and malaria medication. It's like living in the past and the future with no present in between.

There are hundreds of terrible science fiction video games, but to make it onto this list it takes an epic saga like Wing Commander and an epic mistake like Kilrathi defector Hobbes going traitor in Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger.
The lovable fur-suiter from Kilrah appeared in prior Wing Commander games and his defection to the Confederacy was a source of much drama during the story portions. Many of the human pilots hated him and assumed he was a traitor. Even in Wing Commander III you were given the option of becoming one of the few voices sticking up for Hobbes while everyone else warns that he's an untrustworthy monster.
Then Hobbes transmits the plans for the human's war-ending bomb to the Kilrathi, kills a human pilot, and escapes. Some fans of the series claim double-traitor Hobbes did what he did because of his conscience, but all signs in the game point towards a totally retarded sleeper agent plot. He was evil all along.
The moral of the story is...distrust outsiders and never stick up for the weird guy everybody hates. Was the "Hobbes is a traitor" plot a genius double fake-out? Was Chris Roberts an overrated doofus when it comes to stories?
I think Chris Roberts answered those questions with his Wing Commander movie.
In 1988 comic industry golden boy Frank Miller was asked to write a script for a sequel to Robocop. He happily accepted the opportunity to write the screenplay for one of his favorite movies. The unfortunate result of this endeavor was Robocop 2, a fizzle that saw Robocop hunting drug dealers and facing off against a reincarnation of ED-209 controlled by a ghost in a TV screen.
It was a bad movie. It had its moments, but it was a bad movie. Miller felt terrible and claimed the Hollywood system had twisted his wonderful screenplay into a nightmare. The producers sent him stupid notes all the time and the studio chopped the footage to pieces. He had inadvertently helped turn a beloved franchise to shit and he mentions how sorry he is to this day.
He can be forgiven. He was young and inexperienced, Hollywood chewed him up and spit him out. He learned his lesson. Which begs the question...
Why the fuck did he agree to write Robocop 3!?
What kind of masochistic shithead agrees to return to the torture mill only to pen a screenplay that sees Robocop flying with a jet pack and fighting robotic ninjas? Frank Miller, of course, and no amount of apologizing, no number of good Robocop comics, will ever make up for him helping to ruin Robocop. He saw what happened with Robocop 2 and he went ahead and cashed a check to write Robocop 3. Miller's contrition won't keep him out of the 16th spot on the list of Most Awful Moments in Science Fiction.
Mass Effect: Andromeda turns its nose up at the original trilogy's rigid morality. It boasts a more nuanced and intellectually compelling shades-of-grey approach in which a heart icon pops up when it's time to tell an alien to take their clothes off.
Please consider updating your plan to include Trickle Down Antibiotics, the Millennial Meltdown, and other new options.
I mean, they're not that bad. "Substandard" vending machines.
Which Overwatch Characters Would Bone Each Other? Not In Our Imaginations, But, Like, In Real Life?
It is said the Lord did write upon the sky, "Only the Most Awful shall be cataloged herein." And a wind did come and blow away the words and turn them into a skull. And the writers did fall upon their knees and give thanks, for yea, the Most Awful was good. Thus the lists were born. Read them, sons and daughters, and be strong.

"A game isnt something that can be made by one person alone. Well, its possible that a really hard-working game creator could finish a game all alone, but even then he would still need a player. Games grow and mature when theyre created, played, and conveyed over and over."
—Itoi, in a 2007 issue of Nintendo Dream magazine
"Being free does not lead to decadence. It brings out potential."
Shigesato Itoi (糸井 重里, b. November 10, 1948) is a Japanese essayist and copywriter whose works are widely considered to have had a defining influence on modern Japanese culture. He's dabbled in pretty much everything at some point or another over the past thirty years or so - he's done books, he's done songwriting, he's done websites, he's done voice acting, he's done film, he's done television, he's done day planners... The man is an endless font of variety, really, and Japan loves him for it.Of course, that's not what he's known for in the western world. No, the west knows him better for something that to him and to Japan was little more than a little experiment in storytelling he did on the side. Around here, he's best known as the brilliant mind behind the MOTHER trilogy of Nintendo video games, namely MOTHER, EarthBound and MOTHER 3. He's a good friend of Shigeru Miyamoto, Hirokazu Tanaka and the late, great Satoru Iwata (who singlehandedly reprogrammed EarthBound from scratch midway through development, rescuing the entire project when all seemed lost), he served on the board of Nintendo subsidiary HAL Laboratory for a while, and he is an occasional participant in the Iwata Asks interview series. Other video game endeavours of his include bass fishing video games for the Super Famicom and Nintendo 64 (he was really into bass fishing in the late 90s) and a health diary for Nintendo DSi.In 1998, he established the Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun (Pretty-Much-Daily Itoi News, commonly called Hobonichi), a strange news site-hybrid themed around the idea of brightening peoples' days. It's partially a news site, but its biggest draw is its status as the home of his essays and thoughts on life, living, philosophy and his dog, and interviews with interesting people. On that note, he really loves interviewing people - his interviews never fail to be long and interesting and he's filled multiple books with them. This is pretty much why Iwata sometimes gets him to do important Iwata Asks interviews instead - because he's really, really good at it.He has a Twitter account, which is quite the interesting read if you're versed in Japanese. It's pretty easy to tell whenever he mentions MOTHER, because the title is always written in English.— Itoi, in a 2011 interview with David Meerman Scott
Things Itoi has worked on
- Let's Meet in a Dream (in collaboration with Haruki Murakami)
- My Neighbor Totoro - voiced Mei and Satsuki's father
- Iron Chef - judge on four episodes
- The MOTHER series:
- EarthBound Beginnings (MOTHER 1)
- EarthBound (MOTHER 2)
- Super Smash Bros.
- Norwegian Wood - portrayed the Professor
Tropes associated with Itoi:
- Bishōnen: Dear God, just look at him on this magazine cover from 1983!
- The Cameo: He appears as an NPC in For the Frog the Bell Tolls, mining for gold.
- Celebrity Endorsement: Sort of, because he obviously created it - in Japan, the big selling point of the MOTHER series was always the fact that he, a rather popular celebrity, made it; the ads for MOTHER made a point of pointing that out. Also, he likes to endorse food he enjoys (several of these crop up in the MOTHER trilogy), with a curry restaurant actually using a page full of his praise (and scribbles) as its packaging.
- Cloudcuckoolander: If MOTHER wasn't enough to convince you that this is the case, the rest of his body of work will!
- Cool Old Guy
- Gold Fever: He tried his hand at gold mining in the early 90s; this later inspired the Dusty Dunes Desert mining site in EarthBound, which was in development around that time.
- Harmful to Minors: Again, the story about Giygas's creation.
- Heroes Love Dogs: A whole section of Hobonichi is essentially a blog devoted to Itoi's dog, Bouillon.
- Nice Hat: They're quite common in photos of him from the past three years or so.
- Nightmare Fuel: In-universe example, you could say - pretty much everyone knows the story behind him and the film that ultimately inspired Giygas, but in case you don't... then maybe look it up somewhere else unless you know what Giygas looks like.
- Renaissance Man
- Signature Style: His work is always offbeat yet borderline poetic, carry its point well, and will demonstrate a deft mastery of Mood Whiplash.
- Tagline: Once his primary job; he's responsible for many particularly famous Japanese ones.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Croquette rolls. Inevitably they showed up repeatedly in MOTHER.
- Widget Series: Quite a bit of his work.

Lucky, age ten, can't wait another day. The meanness gland in her heart and the crevices full of questions in her brain make running away from Hard Pan, California (population 43), the rock-bottom only choice she has. But the consequences of her attempt are unexpected...
Lucky, age ten, can't wait another day. The meanness gland in her heart and the crevices full of questions in her brain make running away from Hard Pan, California (population 43), the rock-bottom only choice she has.
It's all Brigitte's fault -- for wanting to go back to France. Guardians are supposed to stay put and look after girls in their care! Instead Lucky is sure that she'll be abandoned to some orphanage in Los Angeles where her beloved dog, HMS Beagle, won't be allowed. She'll have to lose her friends Miles, who lives on cookies, and Lincoln, future U.S. president (maybe) and member of the International Guild of Knot Tyers. Just as bad, she'll have to give up eavesdropping on twelve-step anonymous programs where the interesting talk is all about Higher Powers. Lucky needs her own -- and quick.
But she hadn't planned on a dust storm.
Or needing to lug the world's heaviest survival-kit backpack into the desert.
1. eavesdropping
Lucky Trimble crouched in a wedge of shade behind the Dumpster. Her ear near a hole in the paint-chipped wall of Hard Pan's Found Object Wind Chime Museum and Visitor Center, she listened as Short Sammy told the story of how he hit rock bottom. How he quit drinking and found his Higher Power. Short Sammy's story, of all the rock-bottom stories Lucky had heard at twelve-step anonymous meetings -- alcoholics, gamblers, smokers, and overeaters -- was still her favorite.
Sammy told of the day when he had drunk half a gallon of rum listening to Johnny Cash all morning in his parked '62 Cadillac, then fallen out of the car when he saw a rattlesnake on the passenger seat biting his dog, Roy, on the scrotum.
Lucky balanced herself with a hand above the little hole that Short Sammy's voice was coming out of. With her other hand, she lifted the way-too-curly hair off her neck. She noticed two small black birds nearby, panting like dogs from the heat, their ...
If you liked The Higher Power of Lucky, try these:
Eleanor "Groovy" Robinson loves cooking, but things start to go wrong the year she turns eleven - suddenly, her father is in jail, her best friend's long-absent mother reappears, and the swallows arrive early.
Moose and the cons are about to get a lot closer in this much-anticipated sequel to Al Capone Does My Shirts. Recommended for ages 10+.

Maple and 2015 Imperial Sotolon-flavored ham
This recipe is inspired by the 2015 vintage of the Sotolon and is a creation of François Chartier with partner in crime Stéphane Modat (chef at Fairmont Château Frontenac restaurants), from the book Papilles pour Tous!
It's hard to spoil a maple-flavored ham. And it's even harder to resist the aromas of maple, cooked with the 2015 Imperial Sotolon, and clove, two ingredients from the same family as our authentic Quebec maple syrup. Your sugar shack season will never be the same again!
- Half a bone-in ham of about 4 kg (8 lbs)
- 440 mL 2015 Imperial Sotolon beer, Série Gastronmie, Glutenberg/Chartier
- 375 mL (1 ½ cup) maple syrup
- 10 cloves
- 5 g (1 tsp.) black crushed pepper
- Cold water (sufficient quantity)
- Place the ham, cloves and pepper in a large pot with a lid. Pour the beer and the maple syrup into the pot. Cover with water. Cover with the lid and let simmer for 3 hours.
- Once the ham has finished cooking, let it cool down in its juices* for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 450 ºF (180 ºC).
- Place the ham in a baking dish and cook between 45 minutes to an hour. It's important to baste the ham many times to get that perfect glaze.
Tip to transform the cooking juices into pea soup!
Do not throw out the broth in which you have cooked the ham, because it can serve as an excellent base to prepare a pea or vegetable soup!
"Liquid harmonic trails"
Because the 2015 Imperial Sotolon was inspired by maple syrup and complementary ingredients – including ham – this beer is ideal to create the perfect harmony with this recipe, as well as with the pea soup that can be derived from it and as multitude of unimaginable maple ham recipe variations

The Key to Building a Valuable Coin Portfolio
Coin collecting is by no means a modern-day trend, but building a coin portfolio for investment purposes is vastly different from collecting as a hobby. There's a lot of important information you need to know about rare and gold coins before you can begin to diversify your portfolio with these alternative assets.
For starters, you should:
1. Know the coin's market history/cycle: How much has it sold for in the past? What is its average annual ROI? With rare coin investments, you need to think medium to long-term (3-5 years), but you also need to be realistic about your coin. If it doesn't have a good track record in terms of 'popularity' or trading, then it's unlikely to change in the future. This means you may be stuck with a coin that doesn't appreciate in value as much as you'd expect it to.
2. Know what influences a coin's price and grade: The official grading of a coin is determined by a number of factors, which also influences a coin's price. These include:
• The metal content that it's manufactured from
• Rarity/scarcity
• Preservation (condition)
• Supply and demand
• Historical significance
• Age
• Popularity
• Availability
• Investment potential
• Investors
• Mintage (when, where, how many?)
• Design
• Tax benefits
• Liquidity/portability
The market value of a coin is based largely on its official grade, which in turn makes it easier to track the performance. So ideally, you should aim to purchase only graded coins, or at the very least have your rare coins graded and appraised as soon as you are able to.
3. Know the story behind the coin you're buying: A coin with a unique and interesting history almost always has a higher market value. Is yours from a time period that is favourable for coin production? Is it from the era of an important leader? Does it have a very low mintage? Was it minted under exceptional circumstances, or manufactured with an unusual metal content? These are all factors which can add significant value to your rare coin investment.
4. Know about coin grading vs. investment potential: This depends largely on your budget and what you can comfortably afford, as well as what your investment requirements and expectations are. Unless you have enough numismatic knowledge to make your own decision, it's best to speak to a certified coin dealer who will be able to advise you on what graded coins are best suited to your investment profile and budget. They'll also be able to advise you on the market performance and potential of any coins you're interested in.
5. Stick to the '50 Year Rule': Although this is by no means set in stone, it's an approach used by many serious collectors and investors. What it means is that you shouldn't invest in a rare coin that isn't at least 50 years old. This is because it won't yet have an established track record and it would be difficult to predict future market performance.
While these tips will go a long way towards helping you make an informed decision about the type of rare coin you want to invest in, you might still be uncertain about how you're going to find the coins you want.

How To Fight Depression: The Definitive Guide To Feeling Better
Depression in men is an epidemic. That's why it's important for every man to know how to fight depression because depression is no joke. It's a silent killer either through a life of quiet desperation or through outright suicide. When the ruling class imposed Cultural Marxism on western society they went to war against spirituality, nationalism, the nuclear family and traditional masculinity.
By removing the traditional pillars of a man's life many men have been left without a feeling of purpose in their lives. And with the destruction of the nuclear family, many men now suffer from a lack of positive male role models. They no longer have the traditional training, guidance and mental toughness to handle life's challenges that they would have learned from their fathers.
Combine that sense of purposelessness with cultural atheism, nihilistic materialism, urban anonymity, lack of community, wage slavery and debt and it's no wonder that many men slip into depression. Their only hope for escape being drugs, alcohol or video games. The majority of these men suffer in silence, not wanting to show weakness or burden others with their problems. If you're reading this I want to tell you that you're not alone, there is hope and I'm going to show you exactly how to fight depression, but first we have to understand exactly what depression is:
HOw To Fight Depression
What Depression Is
Depression is unhappiness plus despair plus fatigue. You can't be depressed when you have energy, this is very important to understand in terms of controlling your energy levels. Anger is what results when you're unhappy and have energy. anger is unpleasant but can be useful as motivation and is nowhere as crippling as depression.
Depression is also different from sadness, because with sadness there is at least a release when you cry. Sadness is much easier to control, with depression there is no release. With depression you lose even the will to fight the feeling because fighting feels pointless. Depression as a whole is a string of consistent negative thoughts that link to negative feelings in your physiology or vice versa: negative feelings in your physiology that manifest in thoughts.
Thoughts like I'm a failure, life is pointless, I have nothing to look forward to and I'm going to experience even more pain in the future are the most consistent ones. Out of all negative states, depression is the worst, the feelings of hopelessness, nausea, self-hatred and suicidal ideation are nightmarish.
The number 1 rule in fighting depression is don't let yourself slip into depression, it's much more difficult to pull yourself out of a depressive state than to stop yourself falling into it one. To do this you need to recognize your major depressive triggers and constantly monitor your mood.
The mental health community has done a good job of raising awareness for depression, but has created many misconceptions of what depression actually is.Depression is NOT an illness, by thinking depression is an illness it creates a victim mentality and a rationale for making excuses and blaming your depression.
Depression is a state, a state is determined by a combination of your physiology and your mentality. It's true that depression has a genetic component, and you might be more predisposed to enter that state than others due to lower levels of key neurotransmitters but you can raise these neurotransmitters naturally and chemically.
Depression is within your control. Your state is your mood, your state is your reality, your entire life is just a series of state shifts, we link external events to our state but in reality it is completely internal, YOU HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OVER YOUR STATE.
Now that you understand what depression really is and that you have control over it, I've outlined the most common triggers and the three lines of defense in your battle. They are controlling your lifestyle, using state boosters and the last line of defense is knowing howt to fight your way out of a depressive state. These all come from personal experience in my own fight against depression and I promise you everything in this article works.
Illness/Physical pain
Being sick sends hundreds of negative anchors/triggers to your mind, it also reduces your key neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin and GABA making it much easier to slip into depression.
Doing What You Hate
This could mean working a job you hate when you see no way out, family obligations, trying to please other people or any restriction on your freedom and pursuit of happiness.
This means thinking things like life is pointless, it doesn't matter what happens we all die anyway.
Enjoying the material world is great but having faith in something greater than you gives your life meaning, peace, comfort. Pure materialism, is empty, hollow, poorly disguised nihilism. This has nothing to do with religion, but in believing that life in the material world is temporary after which we return to a state of oneness, God and love. This is a powerful tool in your arsenal but I won't preach to you here and you guys who are committed atheists can just ignore this point.
Proper Sleep
Getting proper sleep is crucial to keeping your energy levels high, feeling lethargic destroys your state, make sure to get 6-8 hours a night. You also want to keep your sleep consistent and at night, instead of being up at night and sleeping during the day, this ensures a proper circadian rhythm which is what you're evolved for. Getting proper sleep also strengthens your immune system, in my experience the number one cause for me getting sick is not getting enough sleep.
Avoiding Sickness
Sickness is a massive state destroyer, it's very difficult to pull out of negative/depressing states when you're sick. Taking 5 grams of vitamin c at the first sign of a cold is crucial. Slso avoid foods you're allergic too, for me that means no dairy, garlic or onions.
Drinking Lots Of Water
Feeling relaxed in your body is crucial to your state. Without enough water your muscles will get tight and you become irritable.
Proper Diet
Eating well gives you good clean energy all day, this is the backbone of your state. Eating well also prevents state killers like stomach pain, lethargy and bloating. That means eating natural foods when possible like meat, vegetables, fruits and nuts. This also means avoiding foods you're allergic to.
One key factor for maintaining energy throughout the day is to keep carbs low/moderate and rely mostly on protein, fat, meat and nuts. These are great sources of energy for the day, save your carb loading for the night once you're ready to relax. Too many carbs during the day destroys your energy because your body has to focus all its resources on digestion.
Intermittent Fasting
Fasting in the morning with caffeine blunts your appetite and gives you extra energy and extra time in the morning that you would have spent making and eating breakfast.
No Ejaculation
This is the most powerful state amplifier on this list. Ejaculation causes a dopamine crash, a testosterone crash, and an energy crash. Even from just ejaculating once I get lethargic. Consistent ejaculation kills your life force, energy and killer instinct.
With no ejaculation you'll notice brighter moods, better energy, better circulation of energy, more confidence, more presence, less fear, higher sex drive and an increased pleasure from sex. If you can't hold back from ejaculating (it's hard) then try and limit it to once or twice a week, ideally at night before bed.
High Intensity Training
High intensity training is the best way to exercise, it elevates all your key levels like Testosterone, growth hormone and GABA without flooding your body with cortisol like endurance exercise. HIT gets blood flowing and energy up, especially if you do it first thing in the morning, this includes weights and HIT cardio.
Stress Free Living
This is a key one, it's not always possible especially if you have a high stress job but you have to do what you can to minimize it. Stress causes state destroyers like anxiety and adrenaline dumps. Work on positive reframes, outcome detachment and removing stressful situations. That means not working a stressful job and getting rid of negative people in your life.
Positive Thinking And Thought Reframing
You are what you tell yourself, when you tell yourself negative things they will store in your body, you can feel it in your diaphragm and the sides of your stomach, this usually feels like nausea.
If you can't be positive at the time you have to do your best to at least avoid negative thinking because if you don't you will easily spiral into a depressive state. This means taking negative thoughts, analyzing them and asking how is the useful to me, if it's not, then discard it. Think of some key reframes to the trigger points listed above as well as some key reframes to your own personal trigger points.
Having A Mission
Every man needs a mission, a mission allows you to overcome obstacles, a mission gives you purpose, a mission gives you tunnel vision from negative thoughts, a mission projects a positive reality for your future. Focusing on your mission is an awesome way to channel your energy away from negative thoughts, it also allows you to reframe your suffering as a positive.
Not Doing Things You Hate
This means your job, social functions, hanging out with people who don't respect you, playing an image you don't feel because society compels you. Stop doing as much of these things as you can and notice how much better you feel.
Managing Your Reality
Don't have co-workers or minimize your time with them, same with negative family members. It's much harder to manage reality with negative people pressuring you to conform. It also means avoiding all negative media, movies and news.
This means consistently watching and monitoring your state by making the subconscious conscious. This gets easier with practice and your mind will automatically send you red flags on negative thoughts.
Having An Achievement Mentality
Make a promise to your self that from now on you've transitioned to an achievement mentality. That means instead of getting high on food, drugs, porn, video games or any other escape from reality, you're now going to get high on achieving. You're going to use the mentalities, routines, and structures on this site to forge laser-like focus in achieving your mission and goals.
Self Acceptance
Look back positively on all you have going for you now . This is easier said then done and is a gradual process so start with baby steps.
Keep a daily routine, be organized, go to bed and get up at the same time everyday. This brings you order, stability and allows you to focus on your mission while giving you pride and control over your environment.
Multiple Areas Of Self Esteem
You need to take pride in many areas of your life including but not limited to, your mission, your career, your presence, your style, your fitness, your relationships etc. This means when you're failing in one particular area you can still receive plenty of self-esteem from others. For example you fail at hitting your gym goal for that day so you work extra hard on your business.
Standing/Sitting Up Straight
Standing up straight is the physical embodiment of your most powerful state, standing hunched over is what people with low self-esteem do. Standing up straight gives you increased energy. Standing up straight also sends cues to your body giving you an increased projection of power, most people don't stand up straight because they've spent a whole lifetime apologizing for their existence.
State Boosters
Affection directly raises oxytocin, this is the chemical that makes feel you warm and fuzzy. Some guys don't realize they have affection needs, not just sexual needs. So go find a cute girl to cuddle with at least once a week (after sex of course).
Cold Shower
Start with a warm shower and finish with 30 seconds of cold, 5 on the head, 10 on the chest, 10 on the back, 5 on the head again, I do this every morning. Its refreshing and gives you a great adrenaline and energy boost.
10 minutes of sprinting on the treadmill, or HIT on the stationary bike will boost your level of endorphins, these natural painkillers will give you a quick state boost. Avoid the using the treadmill often because running is too hard on your joints.
Reading/Listening To Motivational Media
This is crucial, the human brain is like a sponge and the more positivity you're around the more positive you feel. Even reading a Tony Robbins book, which is 99% filler will affect your mood positively through immersion.
Phenibut in moderation is the best drug I've ever taken. It's a GABA agonist similar to alcohol except with out the cognitive side effects or lethargy. On a moderate dose of phenibut you'll notice an increase in energy, relaxation, feelings of happiness and music sounds amazing.
Dosage should be between 1g to 2g, try 1g for your first time. Take on an empty stomach in the morning with caffeine and don't eat for approximately 3 hours after to strengthen the effects. Phenibut will last the entire day peaking at about 5 hours in. Be careful not to use more than a few times a week because tolerance builds quickly and withdrawal can be nasty.
Caffeine is the second best drug I take. On an empty stomach a 100mg caffeine pill in the morning gives me a consistent energy boost for 3 to 4 hours and sets the proper tone for the day. I also get a mild euphoria and faster cognitive processing.
Caffeine is a great drug because it works consistently every day with only a mild tolerance forming. With that said if you don't take caffeine every day the effects are even stronger with a near recreational drug high. A caffeine pill with lots of water is the best way to take it and negates the diuretic effects. Caffeine is also great state boost mid day if your mood is getting low.
Going out with your buddies who can make you laugh is always a great state booster, especially when you're feeling down and don't want to go. The most consistent though is throwing on a comedy, or youtube videos, these can put you in state within 10/20 minutes.
Powerful uplifting music is awesome for a quick state boost, I don't go anywhere without headphones. First thing in the morning is the most important time for music, the first thing I do when I wake up is put my headphones in and put on uplifting music.
Fighting Your Way Out
In many ways depression is rage turned inwards. Harness that rage and let it motivate you and that you won't be a slave to it any more, that you won't have another day destroyed. Then use that anger and focus towards the obstacles in your way and how you will be a glorious success. Fight, strive, kick and claw your way up to a neutral mood.
Don't Future Plan
Depression means you're in mental survival mode, this means regrouping and directing all your energy to lifting your present state. Don't try and plan your future in a depressive state, all your future dreams will look hopeless and stupid, this will push you further into a depressive state.
This means telling yourself that this is a temporary state that will soon pass. Telling yourself that the reality you're experiencing is not objective.
Thought Blocking
More important than positive thinking is avoiding negative thinking, that means fighting hard when you recognize yourself going to a depressive spiral, that means telling negative thoughts no, no, no! Thought blocking is also crucial when you're in the middle of depression, tell those negative thoughts to fuck off. This is your most effective tool.
State Boosters
Use any of the state boosters listed above, with that said make sure to use Phenibut in moderation.

Excellent post. Suffering now through an admittedly light depression brought on by job loss, I'm implementing many of these actions to lift myself out of the depths. Anti-depressant pharmaceuticals get a rough write up in the MSM; but sometimes they are of great use to get yourself out of that dreadful "fog of nihilism" to start caring and gain the desire to get better.
Pay a certified mental health professional cash and don't go through your insurance if you are worried about prospective employers seeing the psych help on your med records. I did this when it finally struck me I needed some help to get out of the despair that I just couldn't shake. -
Good stuff. For me, putting "Having a Mission" is probably the highest. When a man has time on his hands and no goals, he's probably going to do something really stupid. When a man has time on his hands and goals, he's gonna build something, and often, he does something great.
And of course, being a musician/composer, music is really high up there.
I just read this article and it's solid stuff. I've used some of these methods personally. I've been through some nasty depressive episodes and these tips will help. I personally can't stress exercise and nutrition enough. Good job and great article.
Hey will amazing article. I wanted to ask, what kind of artist would you recommend for uplifting music for the morning?
Hey Will I am a long time reader and customer. Thought your tinder book was great. I wanted to post on this blog because I was wondering if you had any insight and perspective on how feeling the need to have friends and "fit in" has on depression and what to do about it. I know from my experiences going through high school and university that if you didn't experiment with drugs and alcohol it was much tougher to have a lot of friends and climb the social ladder sort to speak. From my experiences having a lot of friends and feeling like you "belong" has a big impact on mood and depression. I noticed you don't talk a lot about this when mentioning the areas you believe we should concentrate on (wealth, health, lifestyle, relationships) Perhaps you could post a separate blog on this topic as there are a lot of ways you can go with this.
Do you have any insight on this topic and what advice would you have for someone who struggled with this as a teen and young adult due to not really wanting to experiment with drugs and alcohol?
Thanks as always Will.
sick stuff man. re-reading this through the link in your new book :)

A Friend in Need, a small local volunteer organization, is supported by grants from Acton-Boxborough United Way, Maynard Community Chest, and people like you. AFIN offers one-time financial help to people with significant and compelling financial need in the Acton-Boxborough-Maynard area. Anyone in urgent need can be considered for financial assistance by going to a member of the clergy or social service representative and asking them to contact A Friend in Need on their behalf through the organization�s hotline.
A Friend in Need was contacted by an advocate for a woman who is raising her three children alone while working at a part-time job. She recently had to stop working for a time because one of the children required hospitalization. With an already stretched budget, our client was unable to pay her rent. Her advocate said the client is doing everything she can to maintain some independence but knew she had to reach out for help. A Friend in Need was able to assist towards a month�s rent, thereby giving her some time to recover financially.
To help A Friend in Need assist others in need in the community, send a donation to A Friend in Need, c/o South Acton Congregational Church, 35 School St., Acton MA 01720.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.30 / 5.00 4,298 ViewsHello people!
"People of Punk-o-matic 2" is 38 minutes worth of city event clips from the game Punk-o-matic 2. I decided to make this because a lot of work went into these little unlockable clips and I feel that I owe it to Jaxxy, Tomamoto, DruoxTheShredder, Rina-chan, Sapphire and myself to make sure they are viewable by everyone. I'm sure most people haven't played Punk-o-matic 2 enough (or at all) to have unlocked all these clips so here they are, in higher audio quality for your viewing pleasure.
Keep in mind that the nature of these clips is simplistic, light-weight and served as story build-up in the game's world. I hope you'll enjoy them :D
Comments are always welcomed! Cheers!
Thanks man.
This is really epic, thanks for posting this. I really suck at Punk-o-matic 2 and other games of that genre, so I really appreciate being able to see the clips without having to grind through a game which is fun, but I would totally hate at the end of it all. I enjoyed your art style and will keep an eye out for anything new you come out with. I hope this scores you a front page.
thanks man, it's on the front page :D
Now I don't have to keep playing the game 24/7. :P
haha yeah :D
I watched
Every scene, and laughed hard every single one.
Thank you everyone who worked on this because it was epic.
Such great characters, and amazing voice acting by all. :D
thanks man :)
Feeling jipped here
From that long ass intro of you going on about how much work went into them I was expecting something awesome (I know it's for a flash game but still) yeah, it's stills of people with audio over them and they occasionally change poses. Just how I feel!
well try it man, write, animate, voice act and draw as many poses for 38 minutes worth of animation and let me rate it 3 saying it wasn't a lot of work.
Wasn't Punk meant to be unconventional and without borders? Well, you sure live it's spirit then.
Nice work, I especially like Augusts and Hackits Voice-acting. Could use some more animation-like features through, but this would have been impossible to make I guess. :)
thanks :) the style is simplistic to be light weight in the already huge game
