Exercise is essential to a healthy heart. With February being Heart Month, it's the perfect time to talk about a few ways exercise can lower cholesterol, dramatically decrease your risk of heart attack and stroke, and increase your probability of a longer, healthier life.
One of the most important topics we hear about when it comes to your heart is cholesterol. Whether in the classroom or on a cheerios commercial we have all heard the term. Let's take a quick second to learn a little bit about cholesterol.
There are many groups of lipoproteins, but we will just touch on the main two.
LDL cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, or "bad" cholesterol, is the main lipid that causes damaging buildup and blockage in your arteries.
HDL cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein or "good" type of cholesterol, helps to prevent "bad" cholesterol from building up in your arteries. HDL cholesterol removes LDL cholesterol from where it doesn't belong.
Now that we know the difference, let's talk about how exercise can play a vital role in managing both types of cholesterol and why this is so important for your heart.
One way exercise can start improving your cholesterol is by losing weight. Being overweight tends to increase the amount of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in your blood. These are the "bad" kind of lipoprotein that's been linked to heart disease. These LDL cholesterol act like plaque that sticks to the blood vessel walls causing atherosclerosis or clogging of arteries. Exercise helps to stimulate enzymes in the body that help move these bad cholesterol from the blood and walls of blood vessels and sends them straight to your liver. From there, the liver converts the bad cholesterol into bile for digestion or excretes them from the body. Thus, the more you exercise, the more LDL (bad cholesterol) your body expels!
Exercise also helps increase the size of Lipoproteins that carry the cholesterol. These Protein particles combine with cholesterol to create the lipoproteins which deliver fats around the body. Lipoproteins can be many different sizes. Some are big and fluffy (the kind we want) and some are small and dense (the kind we don't want). The smaller more dense lipoproteins can get lodged in small linings of the heart and blood vessels leading to clogged arteries and a greater risk of heart attack and stroke over time. Research shows that exercise increases the size of these protein particles carrying both good and bad lipoproteins giving our body a better opportunity to utilize the good cholesterol and excrete the bad.
The importance of a good diet can never be overlooked. We must continue to find a healthy balance of diet and exercise as we push to find our optimal heart health. Getting out a little more each day or making a little more effort to push your body to new limits could flat out save your life.
Some easy ways to incorporate activity into your daily routine.
We recommend before starting any program of physical activity or exercise to always consult your health care provider first. For more information on heart health and cholesterol, check out the links below.

You can either select a rolling monthly subscription, which you can cancel anytime, or you can choose to pay upfront and still receive a new pack each month. You also have the option to purchase the Full Set of the Narrative Journey which includes everything you would receive over the subscription but instead you'll receive it all at once. We've made this option more compact, giving you one workbook per theme, as opposed to two. Whichever subscription you decide, the format for each option is the same. For the Narrative Journey, this would be a daily workbook, a stand and a deck of cards. For the Social Journey, this would be a picture book, an activity book, a stand and a pack of cards. We are currently working on the Full Set of the Social Journey.

There is certainly more emphasis on good coffee and beverage varieties in the office than there used to be. Gone are the days where cheap instant brands are the norm. Some companies are even advertising their office as having freshly brewed coffee, herbal tea and hot chocolate selection as a way to entice quality staff.
Hot beverages and coffee supplied directly to the office
Consider where you buy from, a local roaster that is happy to send beans directly to your office is a big advantage, but why stop there. Too many accounts çan make the job harder, so finding a company who can supply more than one product, this will save you time and money.
Perhaps you also need vending supplies such as hot chocolate, chai, bio cups, stirrers, sugar etc.. along with your coffee. Search for companies that supply a number of consumables and accessories, it might be they also sell and service coffee machines that use their products, providing a whole office beverage package.
The cost of productivity – Fresh bean or Pods
How do you convince the boss that more choice for the staff and better quality coffee is worth the investment? Start by presenting the value. Happy employees are more productive, having a break can increase staff productivity too, so best you keep them in the building whipping up their own latte, herbal tea or hot chocolate.
Fresh coffee can save your company money, ever considered why printers are so cheap? because the profit is in selling you the ink, pod machines work on this same principle. While you might enjoy an initially cheap outlay, the ongoing cost to replace the pods is not, this can cost you up to 70% more than coffee beans.
It would seem providing your clients and staff with better tasting, freshly ground coffee makes a great sales pitch to the accounts department.
Manual espresso or automatic, which coffee machine is best?
There are a number of options so I suggest you try before you buy, visit the supplier and have them make a number of drinks such as "flat white", "espresso" and "cappuccino" this way you can taste the quality and know you are getting the right machine.
The biggest decision is deciding whether a manual machine or automatic is best for you. Personally having used both machines I would always opt for an automatic coffee machine in the office.
While we all love the idea of being a barista and creating beautiful latte art, many of us have no training and we just want fast consistently great coffee each time. An automatic machine will give you an easy to use, and easy to clean setup, simply press a button and enjoy freshly ground beans in each cup, making them as close to a barista style coffee as possible without the hassle.
You might find this article helpful in deciding what is best for you: choosing an espresso machine
Ongoing supply services and machine maintenance
If you are working in a medium to large size office with 50-100 staff or more, it's worth investigating a company who can supply your beverages and maintain your equipment. Regular cleaning and servicing will keep your machine in top shape, relying on cleaners or staff members is not always going to keep the machine in its best condition. Cafe Corporate offer monthly services to those purchasing their coffee and hot beverage supplies within Perth.
Keeping the cleaning and maintenance in house
Having an automatic or manual coffee machine in the office is going to require some upkeep. Small to medium size businesses don't always have a budget for regular cleaning services.
Manual machines will need cleaning after each cup of coffee is made, while an automatic machine will run regular rinse cycles throughout the day, leaving you to clean the machine and the milk system at the end of the day. Taking this into consideration, if you and your colleagues are going to be the ones cleaning and maintaining the coffee machine, an automatic is perhaps the best option.
I have listed below automatic coffee machine brands worth consideration.
Jura: suitable for small to large offices wanting freshly ground barista style coffee to cup.
WMF: Ideal for medium to large scale business who want a variety of hot beverages.
Necta Krea: Used in remote locations where fresh freeze dried milk is required.
Franke: For small to large office use where fresh beans are required.

I'm not going to pretend to be an aficionado of essays, but I know a well-curated collection when I see one, fiction or otherwise. This new essay collection by short story writer and essayist Charles D'Ambrosio is dark, disarming, occasionally funny and honestly not what I expected from a collection of essays. My favorite piece was the one about whaling. Or was it about Native Americans? Or misguided activists? Or baby fever? Or loneliness? It doesn't matter; D'Ambrosio manages to keep the reader delightfully off-kilter while crafting a cohesive spirit in each essay.
D'Ambrosio the journalist/writer is telling these stories, but the journalistic lens is only peripheral–at its heart this book is personal. If you're looking for something that will rewire your brain, if only for a short while, try Loitering.

text: Costuming is gorgeous – from everything Katniss dons to Effie's (played by Elizabeth Banks) wacky creations, costumers deserve a grateful hand of applause. Oddly instead of distracting from the picture – because of its' "bigness," it adds to the atmosphere, characters and the "emotion" of the scene. Speaking of those characters, can I just give a little shout for joy…! I actually felt something for Katniss' predicament, felt her emotions, felt for what she was going through. When I read the first novel, I remember thinking the girl was a board which in turn bored me so to finally feel like a character I want to like is coming to life, is capable of feeling makes this a far more pleasant thing to watch. What is more interesting is how she is changing towards Peeta (who, by the way, is as "cute" as ever. Like, seriously… who doesn't like him?). She feels a pull towards him because both of them know what the other is trying to live through yet she is afraid of anything more between them. Also thrown into the mix along with returning favorites are newbies Sam Claflin (Snow White and the Huntsman) and Jena Malone who turn in epic performances.

The Brutal Silencing of a Woman at the Forefront of Libya's Rebellion
Scores or perhaps hundreds of killings remain unsolved in Benghazi, Libya, since the ouster of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi nearly four years ago. But no victim has symbolized the crushed hopes of the Libyan uprising more than Salwa Bugaighis.
Ms. Bugaighis, an outspoken human rights lawyer, was among the revolt's first and most important leaders, and she was also the most prominent woman in the rebels' early provisional government.
Colonel Qaddafi, in his bizarre style, had opened opportunities for women in ways that few other Arab strongmen ever did. "It is an undisputed fact that both man and woman are human beings," Colonel Qaddafi wrote in the Green Book, his magnum opus of philosophical musings. He expanded women's education, sharply reduced illiteracy among women, enabled women to enter new professions, and conspicuously included uniformed women in both the army and the police.
But Libyan culture remained deeply conservative, especially in the towns and villages, where women and men rarely mix outside their families. Nearly every Libyan woman wears some sort of Islamic head covering.
Ms. Bugaighis was one of the few who did not. Raised in Britain as the daughter of a dissident in exile, she believed the uprising of 2011 could usher in not only a new democracy but also expanded individual freedoms, including for women.
Instead, Libya began breaking down almost immediately into a patchwork of city-states dominated by various regional, ideological or criminal armed groups, spreading violence and lawlessness around the country.
Ms. Bugaighis opposed the militias who aligned with political Islam, and also the ambitious general who declared a coup and went to war against them. By the spring of 2014, she and her family had left Benghazi after an assassination attempt nearly killed her son. But she risked returning home to cast her ballot in elections held that June and urged others to do the same.
"My people, I beg of you, there are only three hours left," she wrote on Facebook at about 5:45 p.m. on Election Day, warning Libyans that the polls would soon close.
She was killed in her home — stabbed and shot — later that night, and her death marked a turning point from bad to worse for Libya.
The Parliament chosen in that election was irreconcilably divided and the political process in Libya broke down completely. Militias have organized against one another in a civil conflict that for the last nine months has crippled the country and killed thousands. The murder of Ms. Bugaighis remains unsolved; her husband also disappeared the night she was killed, and his whereabouts is unknown.
The Trials of Spring is a six-part series about women who played important roles in their countries during the Arab Spring. The series is presented by The New York Times in conjunction with a feature-length documentary co-produced by ZAG Line Pictures LLC and Independent Television Service, with funding provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and in association with Fork Films, Artemis Rising Foundation and the Center for Independent Documentary.

Lewisham Labour are calling on the community to register to vote ahead of changes to the electoral role due to be introduced in December.
The Tory government is changing how we register to vote. Under the rushed and mishandled reforms, millions of eligible voters face being removed from the electoral register. Under Individual Electoral Registration, each voter will have to register to vote themselves, rather than one person per household under the previous system. One million people across the country look set to disappear from the electoral register on 1 December this year; and that's on top of the millions more eligible adults already missing from the electoral register.
A number of groups are less likely to be registered to vote, including private renters, people from ethnic minority communities, the unemployed and lower-paid manual workers. Whereas 95% of over-65s are on the register, just 70% of 18 to 24-year-olds are. All these groups are less likely to vote Conservative – so it's not coincidence that they don't seem bothered about them dropping off the register.
The Conservative government have ignored independent advice to wait until the end of 2016 to fully implement Individual Electoral Registration. In a cynical attempt to rig the system, the Tories are rushing through these changes and then re-drawing constituency boundaries, something that will massively benefit them at the next election.
With large BAME communities and a high proportion of private renters and students, it is areas like Lewisham that will be affected the most. Lewisham is an area that already has a lower than expected voter registration and this will get worse, disenfranchising more Lewisham people.
Labour is doing its best to ensure both that everyone is able to vote and that the system is fair. This weekend Lewisham Labour will be taking part in a national #MissingMillion campaign day to spread the word and make sure as many people as possible are registered to vote. We'll be meeting on Saturday 24th Oct at 13:00 at the corner of Laleham Road and Engleheart Road.
Lewisham Council is also working hard to ensure that local people are signed up to vote and a working group of councillors and officers has been working on this for months. If you've had a letter from the Council about registering to vote, make sure you read it and respond.
Cllr Kevin Bonavia, Cabinet Member for Resources said "Now that the Tories have brought forward the deadline for the change forward to 1 December this year, there is real risk that tens of thousands of Lewisham residents will not be counted when the number of MPs is next recalculated, meaning that in Lewisham we could unfairly lose an MP and this would weaken our voice in Parliament. It is therefore vital residents to register as quickly as possible."
Cllr Roy Kennedy, Chair of the Electoral Registration Working Group said; 'the decision by the government to bring forward by one year to the December to end the transitional arrangements and remove millions of people nationally and thousands of people locally is a disgrace and is against the advice of the Electoral Commission. Next Tuesday in Parliament we have the opportunity to stop this Tory attack and defeat them on this issue.'
Don't lose your voice! Lewisham Labour says register to vote today

___The Price/Earnings Ratio is one of the most broadly watched measures of valuation for both the stock market as whole and individual stocks. Many people use it to determine whether the market (or a given stock) is "expensive" or "cheap"
For example, a company with a share price at RS 160 and an EPS of 8 would have a P/E of 20 (160 / 8 = 20).
The P/E looks at the relationship between the stock price and the company's earnings. The P/E is the most well-liked stock analysis ratio, although it is not the only one you should consider.
stocks with P/E below about 12 are considered "low" stocks with P/E above about 40 or 50 are considered "high" , in absolute terms. A P/E's significance.


text: Health Library 2015-10-09 An Eye on Lyme Disease Main Article Content Breadcrumb navigation All/Health Library/Eye On Lyme Disease What You Need to Know for Time Outside Lyme disease affects people of all ages in all parts of United States. But it's most common in children and older adults with a particularly high incidence in the Midwest. Moreover, Lyme disease is frequently misdiagnosed and a delay in diagnosis can result in more serious side effects. All of which underscores the importance of recognizing Lyme disease and taking preventive measures when you're outdoors this summer. What is Lyme Disease? Lyme disease is a bacterial infection that shows as a multisystem inflammatory disease. In early stages, Lyme disease is marked by fever, headache, swollen lymph nodes and skin rash as well as fatigue. However, if untreated, later stages of Lyme disease can affect the nervous system and joints causing arthritis, facial or Bell's palsy, heart palpitations and nerve pain. People with Lyme disease are often misdiagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis and certain emotional health conditions like depression. However, with the correct diagnosis, Lyme disease is easily treated with a two to four week course of antibiotics. While most people recover quickly and completely, a small percentage experience what's called Chronic Lyme Disease or Post Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome. People with chronic Lyme disease may feel fatigue, pain or joint aches for an additional six months, but will ultimately make a full recovery. How Can You Prevent Lyme Disease? Lyme disease is transmitted by deer ticks, and exposure to ticks is a key indicator for diagnosis. As such, preventing tick bites is the most effective form of prevention. Insect repellent is recommended. When outdoors or camping, try to avoid particularly wooded or brushy areas with high grass and walk in the center of forest trails. Make sure you're checking for ticks and whenever possible, bathe or shower within two hours of coming indoors. If you do find a tick, take care in removing it. Use tweezers and grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible to avoid breaking off the mouth. Once removed, clean the bite area with rubbing alcohol or soap and water. But spending time in the great outdoors is not the only way you can get a tick bite – it can happen in your own backyard, too. Regular upkeep – mowing, raking leaves, stacking wood neatly – can go a long way in preventing your backyard from becoming a tick habitat. Keep playground equipment and toys in sunny, dry locations and you may want to line lawns and patios with wood chips or gravel to minimize tick migration as well. Finally, if you have pets, they deserve your attention for both their own health and yours. Dogs are particularly at risk for ticks and bites can be hard to detect. Check your pets frequently and talk to your veterinarian about tick prevention and repellent. Interested in hearing more from Northwestern Medicine?

Worth noting
--A friend/reader asked why the Indianapolis Star on Sunday is now calling itself the Sunday Star. An insider at the paper explained that it's all about branding and, ideally, catching those Sunday sales: "The idea is to distinguish the Sunday paper from the rest of the week....people are more likely to buy a Sunday paper, so if they see the big Sunday there, that may be an incentive."
--Also: Did you all read in Bob Kravitz' weekend column on the Butler Bulldogs that he is once again facing heart issues? Bob said he had another stent put in; he was thus watching the Butler game not from the Big Easy down south but from his big easy chair in Fishers. "Misbehaving heart" took the rap. Go slow is the best advice, but who at Gannett can do that?
--The adult children of John Bigelow are "on verge of winning a wrongful death suit" against the Indiana Department of Corrections for the cruel treatment and lack thereof their dad received behind bars (he was convicted of killing his wife Marianne in 2006; he died of prostate cancer in 2009 at Wishard Memorial Hospital.) According to a close friend of John Bigelow's, Bigelow was "laying on the (prison) floor unable to draw in pain with guards laughing at him ... He received the 'get Tylenol from commissary' treatment that any inmate will tell you is what the doctors (behind bars) will prescribe."
--Great story by former Star reporter Marc Allan in Indianapolis Business Journal on Peppy Grill at 1004 Virginia Ave. in Fountain Square. Did you know: a sign over the door says, 'Cows may come and cows may go, but the bull in this place goes on forever'? The smoking ban did not kill of Peppy, obviously, altho some of us predicted it might. OK, it hurt, says owner Mary Wyman. But the grill had its best month in November 2010. Originally there were 12 Peppy Grills across the city, competing with White Castle. Wyman and her late husband, who bought the chain in the 1970s, sold most of them in the mid-1980s when she was diagnosed with cancer to pay her bills. Now this is the only one left Wyman owns. PG is open 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, which is both its challenge and its curse. But it's also it's rep: between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. on the weekends, there's barely a place to sit. This is an example of a wonderful freelance story; I enjoyed.
--Congrats to Star reporter Erika D. Smith, formerly a biz/tech columnist who seems to have moved into the big seat as a columnist providing Page 1 and metro/state commentary. Columnists may come, and columnists may go, but the bull goes on forever....
--Isn't it fascinating that the Star, the IBJ and the Indianapolis Monthly have all runs pieces in the past couple weeks declaring, or all but declaring, Indy a new fashion capital???? And why not? We've got the food thing going; why not be fashionistas here, too? If Mayor Ballard creates a fashion/garment district, it will be too cute.
--Go Bulldogs!
OK, one thing wrong with this post: Ballard and fashion in the same sentence.
But, there have been some great stories lately. Peppy Grill is a fantastic people-watching spot. None better since Canary closed. A combo of drunks trying to sober up, hungry sober folks, and the, uh....toked "munchy" cravers. Giggling.
It's a treasure.
I would agree with Ruth that the Peppy Grill story is fun. But let's look at what that says about Indy: graveyard shift people are more interesting than those circulating other times of the day.
I would also agree with her citation of Erica Smith's work. She was good then, she's better with seasoning. The paper is so small now that it's kind of damnation by faint praise, however....fortunately, she's pretty good. Ah, youth.
Indianapolis as a fashion capitol, however, is amusing. Yeah-- NASCAR Fashion-- whooopee!
There are some fashion pockets. No pun intended.
And wouldn't that be praisign by damnation, Hendy?
I guess I'd have to take away the seeming equivocation.
Erica Smith is a damn good writer, journalist, and columnist. I think her stuff is of high quality and consistency. There. No possible damnation.
The Gannett house ads continue to puzzle. They show polished young people, clearly stock photos, with relentlessly irrelevant copy, promising in some vague way that you can have it all...with Gannett.
Have it all indeed, and walking will be difficult thereafter.
As a former Fashion Editor at The Indianapolis Star, I have to chime in.
Indy as fashionista magnet? Not a chance. (Just ask Alpha Blackburn.)
But, as for Erica Smith: she's got the chops to take on her new beat with verve, gusto and intelligence. (Think: Tom Keating reincarnated for the 21st Century)
I'd rather have her at the helm of a newly revived and well-staffed features department ... but that's asking too much of Gannett!
I wondered if the ghost of Tom Keating might be exhumed. There were brushes with that ghost by Ruth our resident goddess, Ed Shaughnessey, His Dan Carpenterness, and a handful of others.
Erica is in line. Hope she lasts.
The adult children of John Bigelow on the "verge of winning a wrongful death suit"????? I doubt that the source of that story is their lawyer or the judge in the case. The source could only be a former prisoner.
Keating's forte was illuminating the lives of ordinary Hoosiers. I see that same predilection in Smith.
Writing about local people and local topics: what a concept!
And it sure beats reading canned features with stock photos!

tim siu thinks this is interesting:
A Java servlet is a platform-independent web application component that is hosted in a servlet container. Servlets communicate with web clients using a request/response model managed by a servlet container, such as Apache Tomcat. When the user submits a request to the server (i.e., clicks on the link in the browser), the servlet container will accept the request. The servlet container then checks the servlets deployed on it, locates the one that should handle the incoming request (based on the request URL and servlet mapping), and sends the request to it, wrapped as an instance of the
ServletRequest class. After processing the request, the servlet produces a response in the...

Traveling the Road to Nakba - what do we make of the Gaza protests?
When I was a kid my parents would watch the "Road" movies. These were light-hearted comedy romances (some claim they were satirical) starring Bob Hope, Bing Crosby and Dorothy Lamour. Examples of the title included: Road to Zanzibar; Road to Hong Kong; Road to Bali, and even Road to Utopia.
But the Road to Nakba isn't comedy-romance. It isn't satire. Neither is it a road to Utopia. It isn't a march to freedom, or a right to return from "stolen land." The road to Nakba isn't a peaceful march conducted by a peaceful people oppressed by a genocidal Israeli state.
What is Nakba? In a nutshell it's an historic "catastrophe." According to the Jewish Virtual Library:
The word "nakba" to describe the consequences of the 1948 War was coined by Dr. Constantin Zureiq, a Syrian historian who taught at the American University of Beirut. Writing in his 1948 book, The Meaning of the Disaster, Zureiq said, "The defeat of the Arabs in Palestine is not a small downfall – naksa … It is a catastrophe – nakba – in every sense of the word."
Zureiq also wrote, "Seven Arab countries declare war on Zionism in Palestine….Seven countries go to war to abolish the partition and to defeat Zionism, and quickly leave the battle after losing much of the land of Palestine – and even the part that was given to the Arabs in the Partition Plan."
At the heart of Nakba participants and its various supporters is hatred of the Jew - and hatred of Jewish self-determination as a sovereign country in the region commonly referred to as Palestine. In fact a Gatestone Institute bullet point sums it up so well I could stop this article right here:
The mass protests are aimed at forcing Israel to accept millions of Palestinian "refugees" as a first step towards turning Jews into a minority in their own country. The next step would be to kill or expel the Jews and replace Israel with an Islamic state. Did they expect the Israeli soldiers to greet them with flowers?
The road to Nakba is paved with blood.
Not just the allegedly indiscriminate blood spilled by the Israeli Defense Force, either. The Palestinian leaderships have always traded in the blood of their people for the sympathies of complicit anti-Zionist, anti-Jewish entities.
Both Hamas and the PA want bloodshed. They incite their peoples to violence against Jews and Israel, hoping for their deaths. This, while trusting in uncritical support from the single-minded United Nations, surrounding nations (Turkey, Iran, Jordan), and professing Christians!
Following a familiar pattern, Israel's response to the rocket attacks from Gaza in 2014 was predictably called disproportionate force. On the other hand the fact that Hamas fired rockets into Israel from civilian areas in Gaza was ignored as far as possible. Prejudice of the Jewish state trumps concern for a Palestinian people violated by its genocidal leaders.
I've mentioned Anglican anti-Zionist priest Stephen Sizer many times. He recently conducted a "peacemaker" lecture tour in Australia. An online magazine (featuring his anti-Zionism book) has him calling for Christians to be part of the solution in ending the Israel Palestine conflict. He affirms that Christians should pray for peace.
Who would argue with that?
Yet Sizer is no peacemaker. He's an activist who once raised the question of whether Israel was involved in 9-11. Sizer and his colleagues inflame by misinforming those who are unfamiliar with the true dynamics driving the Arab-Israeli conflict. Before he gets to the pious prayer part at the end, he's already poisoned the Zionist well.
It's the usual stuff by the usual suspects.
The mention of Gentiles becoming Jews in the Esther story betrays the intent to redefine Jewish ethnicity. Try applying the same thinking to indigenous people around the world. The "One People of God" anti-Zionist argument allows for an assortment of Gentile nations - just as long as there isn't a sovereign Jewish state.
Of course Sizer cherry picks his texts. The ones he doesn't like he ignores or re-engineers to his liking. I often mention him because his anti-Zionist activity is particularly blatant. Yet he represents a number of anti-Zionist Christians.
Palestinian violence is OK for many Christians because Palestinians are allegedly reacting to an oppressive Israeli state. Said another way, the violence against Israel is understandable in context of "Palestinian suffering." There's an irony to all this given the history of the term Nakba.
The road to Nakba is just another winding track (among many others) leading to a wider road - the road to Armageddon. And, No! - Christian Zionists haven't paved it - contrary to Stephen Sizer's sensationalistic book. We're not that good.
We live in interesting times.
Scoffers say the Christian-Fundamentalist-empowered Donald Trump exacerbated the Palestinian conflict by recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Palestinian leaders will embrace any excuse to incite violence. The Fundies couldn't organize the collapse of Syria, or the rise of Iran and (arguably) Turkey - propped up by a Russian-Goggish Overlord. Leaving aside the sudden Chinese interest in all this!
A sovereign God did that.
Hosea 5:15 notes that affliction will spur Israel to seek God. We read in Zechariah 12 and 14 that God will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all peoples. Those who lift it will be injured. He will gather the nations against Israel, and then destroy them.
In Ezekiel 36:22-28 God reveals that He will restore Israel for His name's sake. God will do all this because He promised to. It will be for the sake of His glory.
The Nakba "march" and its sympathizers are symptoms of anti-Semitism of the scale which will ultimately have eschatological ramifications. Unfortunately, revisionists who insist God has finished with Israel will avoid connecting the dots.
Deliberate anti-Israel activists who stretch the truth also run the risk of incurring the negative aspect of Gen 12:3.
I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. Gen 12:3
On the other hand we should be eagerly looking forward to Christ's appearing (1 John 3:2).
Keep looking up!

Dr. Perkins is focused on surgical and medical therapies for vascular malformations, which are congenital anomalies involving veins, arteries, or the lymphatic system. Of particular interest are infantile hemangiomas (IHs), benign vascular tumors that develop rapidly in infants. IHs often resolve on their own over time but they may potentially block airways, become disfiguring, or impair chewing, eating or speaking, as well as interfere with quality of life. Therefore, resolving IHs with the least invasive treatment possible is a priority. Also of interest are other head and neck vascular malformations that can involve tumors, bleeding, or swelling in the mouth, tongue, face or neck.
In recent years, Perkins has pioneered propranolol treatment to reduce or prevent the growth of IH tumors without the risk of surgery. Propranolol is a β-adrenergic receptor antagonist, known for the treatment of high blood pressure and other cardiac diseases. However, because some IHs do not respond to propranolol, there is a need to improve diagnostic specificity and treatment.
Perkins and his team have identified a microRNA biomarker for diagnosis of IH. By analyzing the microRNA profile of IH patient samples as compared to other vascular malformations and normal skin tissue, C19MC was identified as a microRNA cluster only over-expressed in IH endothelial cells. Since microRNAs are also released from their cells of origin into circulation, C19MC microRNA is detectable in plasma of IH patients. Perkins' team has demonstrated that C19MC microRNA is present in plasma of IH patients before treatment with propranolol and is lowered or undetectable after successful treatment.
The development of a diagnostic biomarker for IH is important because diagnosis of a vascular malformation can be difficult. The presence of C19MC microRNA can help confirm an IH diagnosis without the need for a biopsy. Furthermore, this biomarker might be used in the future to help determine the optimal dosage of propranolol, guide treatment, measure responses, and improve patient outcomes.
Perkins is interested in collaborations aimed at improving diagnosis and treatment of IH and other vascular malformations. He is interested in determining the mechanism of action of propranolol as an effective therapy for IH and finding microRNA-based therapies that may combine with propranolol to improve IH treatment. Additionally, he is interested in determining the microRNA signatures of other vascular malformations to develop other diagnostic biomarkers like C19MC microRNA.

It is extremely difficult to find a pair of headphones that can play classical music well!
Here's the deal:
Classical music is not like most other music.
With the large focus on voices, clarity, and instrumental separation, the best headphones for classical music must satisfy a couple of specific criteria.
We cover all of these criteria in detail below, as well as our top three candidates.
Quick Comparison: Top 3 Headphones for Classical Music
Need Amplifier?
Our Rating
Last updated: April 3, 2016
- April 3, 2016: Sennheiser HD 650 takes the lead.
- March 31, 2016: Updated the top three list and added list of criteria.
- January 16, 2016: Replaced Shure SRH440 with AKG K712.
- September 3, 2015: Removed Shure SRH940 from the top choices.
What to Look For
As I touched upon in the introduction, there are certain criteria that headphones for classical music must satisfy. The most important features are:
- Neutrality
- Accurate soundstage
- Open-back design
- Comfort
Don't worry if you don't understand what that means right now. I'll cover all of it in detail.
Why Neutrality Is Best for Classical Music
Classical music, more than any other type of music, is composed of thousands of micro sounds such as a violin bow striking the string.
It is this complex combination of tiny sounds (invoking huge emotions) that makes classical music.
What does that have to do with headphone neutrality?
Neutrality basically means that you will hear the headphones as if you were listening to a set of speakers with a flat frequency response in a room.
Let me explain:
When you play music through a set of speakers, the sound waves bounce of the walls, chairs, and lamps until they reach your ears. This is what we are used to. How well the sound actually sounds when it reaches your ears is based largely on two things: the frequency response of the speakers and the acoustics of the room.
As you know, headphones don't have that much room to work with.
Engineers, being smart people, have then designed headphones to alter the frequencies to reproduce this experience.
This is why you won't see flat frequency charts for headphones. Neutrality refers to the headphones' ability to reproduce this realistic experience.
There's an additional complication:
Our ears are different.
The engineers I mentioned above are designing headphones with frequencies that will sound realistic when bouncing around inside the ear canals. This is one of the reasons we don't like the same headphones. They literally don't sound the same to us.
Why is this important for classical music?
Like I mentioned above, classical music is composed of such a high level of micro sounds and room experiences, and taking away anything will decrease the quality of the music.
Choose a Pair with an Accurate Soundstage and Dramatically Improve Your Experience
If you've ever heard an orchestra play in a concert hall, you know how important soundstage is.
What is soundstage exactly?
It simply refers to the headphones' ability to recreate the spacious experience you get in the concert hall.
If they can accurately recreate the soundstage, then you can hear the violins sitting slightly to the left and the flutes sitting to the right.
Instead of having all of the instruments packed into a tiny box, the experience will be rather similar to the one in the concert hall — spacious creamy goodness.
Why an Open-backed Design is the Way to Go
Over-ear headphones come in three main categories: open-backed, closed-backed, and semi-open.
This refers to the design of the cups themselves. A closed-back cup will be sealed on the back, while an open-backed cup will be open.
If you've heard anything about headphone cups at all, then you might have heard that a closed-back is better for noise isolation. This is true. And for this exact reasons, they're often recommended for people who travel a lot.
But here's the deal:
It is very difficult to get a pair of closed-back headphones to reproduce the desired orchestral soundstage.
That's why I always recommend going with an open-backed pair.
Keep in mind, though:
If you're mostly going to be listening in loud environments, like trafficked areas, then you might want to go with a closed-back (or semi-open), even though it doesn't provide the optimal experience.
The simple reason:
You won't be able to hear anything with an open-back in noisy environments.
The Often Overlooked Feature: Comfort
When people are looking for headphones for classical music, they tend to overlook comfort.
They get all carried away by 'flat frequency response', 'neutrality', and 'soundstage'.
But the fact of the matter is:
If the headphones aren't comfortable to wear, then they're worthless.
Another aspect of classical music is that the songs are usually quite long. Therefore, to get the best experience, comfort should not be overlooked.
In the End: It's a Personal Choice
I've been rambling on about soundstage, comfort, and neutrality, but the fact of the matter is that choosing a pair of headphones is a very personal matter.
Every individual will hear and experience music (and headphones) slightly differently. Because of this, headphones that I find to be perfect for classical music might not be so in your eyes (or ears).
This is why I recommend going to a headphone store and actually listening to a couple of headphones before buying.
Nevertheless, I have gathered my top three choices below. They satisfy most of the criteria we've talked about and are, in my opinion, the best headphones for classical music.
The 3 Best Headphones for Classical Music
Sennheiser HD 650
There are a couple of factors that play a role here:
First of all, the soundstage of the HD 650 is absolutely fantastic. We talked about how important a good soundstage is to classical music, and the HD 650 does not fall short here.
Second, the sound is unbelievable. They can reproduce everything to the smallest detail. I've yet to find a track that I like that they can't play above all expectations.
So where do they fall short?
The price.
They're (very) expensive. In fact, they're at the price range where I would not be recommending them if they weren't so darn good.
- Great soundstage
- Top sound quality
- Comfortable
- Pricey
- Quite heavy
- Requires amplifier
Our Rating:
If you want to read more about them, then I recommend Dave's review on Headfonia.com.
Sennheiser HD 598
In fact, they've got a wider soundstage than the HD 650, but it isn't as accurate.
Where does it shine?
That's right. Where the HD 650 falls short, the HD 598 triumphs. They provide such a good value for the price they're asking for them.
Another benefit is that they don't require an amplifier to play well. Do they benefit from one? Yes, they do. But it isn't necessary.
- Wide soundstage
- Top sound quality
- Comfortable
- Affordable
- Doesn't require amplifier (but can benefit from one)
- Not quite as accurate soundstage as the HD 650
Our Rating:
For more information about them, I recommend Tim's review on PCMag.com.
Beyerdynamic DT-880 PRO
While the sound quality is fantastic, the semi-open design means that the soundstage becomes a bit narrower than the HD 650 and 598.
In fact, I'd say that you should only get the DT-880 if you absolutely don't want to get a Sennheiser model, or if you want to be able to listen to a lot of other types of music as well.
The Sennheisers can definitely handle most types of music, but the DT-880 is slightly better for the more bass driven genres.
- Top sound quality
- Comfortable
- Versatility
- More bass
- Not as wide soundstage
- Pricey
- Requires amplifier
Our Rating:
For more information on them, I recommend Steve's review on CNET.com.
Final Words
As I touched upon in the introduction, finding a pair of headphones that can play classical music well is no simple task.
I've done my best to choose my top three contenders, and given some criteria that you should look for in the best headphones for classical music.
Whether you choose to go with one of the three above or something completely different is up to you. I'd recommend that you go to a local store and try these headphones (and others) out before you make a purchase, as this is the only way to know exactly what you're getting.
Over to you
What are your favorite headphones to use for classical music?
