questions and answers
Q - To whom is this site addressed?
A - This site is addressed to curious and intelligent people, open- and critically-minded, interested in the meaning and purpose of human life from the point of view of our conscious Ego and the psychic experiences in which it (she/he) is involved during our life. To get an idea of the topics covered, you can start by reading the blog, by clicking on the Blog button at the top right of this page.
Q - Are these issues important?
A - Certainly the arguments here dealt with do not solve the many complex problems that this life involves. On the other hand, since human life is a journey with a beginning and an end, as we progress over time along this path, the curiosity of knowing if our experiences have a meaning, and if – given their complex variety – it is possible to move towards a goal, increases. In this respect, the topics dealt with here are interesting and can reveal new horizons.
Q - This site has a religious tendency?
A - Absolutely not, at least not in the conventional and traditional sense of the term. There is no reference to an anthropologically conceived deity, nor to patterns of behavior to be followed, resulting in rewards or punishments. However, the possibility that the conscious Ego may continue to exist in another dimension, also after the body's death and the brain's dissolution, is taken into account.
Q - How is the site organized?
A - The menu on the left gives access to various sections, each dedicated to a particular topic. Clicking on one of the buttons opens an introductory page to that section where another menu shows up on the right, allowing to access all that section's pages.
Q - How can I see if there's something that might interest me?
A - After these Questions and Answers, there is a summary that helps to better understanding the topics of the site. You can also take a look at the Blog, which takes up some of the themes in a more colloquial form: you can start, for instance, by reading the short story The Spirit's Tale. The topics of the various sections are explained in the following answers.
Q - What is the section Life on earth about?
A - The origin and evolution of the psychophysical instrument (the body and its brain) through which we live in this world, the way in which human social aggregations have formed and evolved, and the ways by which complex societies (like the one we live in) activate the socio-cultural conditioning that contributes to shape our functioning and behavior.
Q - What is the section The human psyche about?
A - On the basis of the current scientific knowledge about the functioning of the human brain, it considers how our sense of existence in this life depends on the conscious experience of a series of psychic events, of which we can preserve the memory, determined by mental (and therefore cerebral) activity. A person's psychic experiences are but a mere fraction of all the psychic events of which humanity can, as a whole, make experience, now or in the past. The complex of all these experiences is an evolving phenomenon that can be defined as human psyche. The reasons are also explained why it is more appropriate to consider the human brain as a tuning instrument - rather than a producer - of the psychic experience.
Q - What is the section Non-ordinary states about?
A - This section is easy, enjoyable and accessible to everyone: it examines and exemplifies various psychic experiences that do not usually come to consciousness during the ordinary waking state: in addition to the normal dreams and some particular kinds of dreams, such as lucid dreams and conscious dreams, the out of the body experiences (OBEs) and the experiences induced by the assumption of some psychoactive substances are dealt with.
Q - What is the section Near death experiences about?
A - This section too is easy to read: it offers several examples of psychic experiences that have occurred during a crisis that could have had a deadly outcome, although this has not happened. These particular experiences, certainly uncommon, often refer to an OBE and an otherwordly dimension. Some points of view, regarding the correlation between these experiences and the presumed functioning of the brain in the conditions in which they occurred, have also been evaluated.
Q - What is the section Psychic phenomena about?
A - It's about various well-documented phenomena, investigated especially in the period between the end of the nineteenth century and the second world war, for most of which have not yet been found a satisfactory explanation that match the physical laws we know. For this reason, there is still a psychic tendency to deny the very existence of these phenomena. This section contains a series of pages related to the History of a medium, with the original reports of some remarkable mediumistic phenomena occurred in a small Tuscan town between 1936 and 1952.
Q - What is the section Psychical research about?
A - This section provides an outline of the researches carried out during a century and a half of investigations on paranormal phenomena and the main theories and hypotheses advanced by the researchers to explain them.
Q - What is the section Over the life about?
A - It considers the possibility that our conscious Ego may continue to exist in other dimensions after the dissolution of the psychophysical system by which we live in this world. Some assumptions concerning agents and supports that could make plausible some form of survival of the conscious Ego have been examined, together with the consequences that such an eventuality may have for our present life.
Q - What does the section Info & links contain?
A - The Info page describes briefly the additions or variations of the site's sections or pages over time. On the Links page - inside the same section - information is provided on other sites, where specific topics are discussed, while in the Library page you can find and dowload some of the books mentioned on the site.
Q - Why so many pages of the site are dedicated to NDEs and to mediumistic phenomena?
A - The reason is explained in the Human psyche section: these psychical experiences are important to highlight some inconsistencies in the cultural orientations currently prevailing in our society. According to these programs, the existence of a human being is considered almost exclusively according to the needs of the socio-economic system of which he/she is a member.
Q - Some topics interest me. In what order should the various pages be read?
A - The topics can be read more or less like the chapters of a book, of which you can browse the pages until you find something interesting to read with more attention. You can also start from the Blog. A graphic with clear fonts was used, but good viewing also depends on the browser settings used by your computer or smartphone. The site should work well with Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer.
Q - Some pages are challenging: can't you simplify them?
A - Although I did my best to be clear, the limits of linguistic communication (and also of my skills) did not always allow me to treat in a simple and effective way what can be outside the range of personal experiences and cultural information of the reader. I have created a Blog to treat some of the site's topics in a simpler way.
Q - Who are you and what's your job?
A - Apart from the fact that I was born in 1946, and therefore I have some experience of life, other news about my life would not add anything meaningful or interesting to what I wrote. I think it is important to emphasize - more than my subjective and partial human experience and the destiny that has determined my life's story - the universal desire for knowledge that acts in me as in so many other human beings.
Q - Does the site have many contacts?
A - Contacts in the last year were over 22,000 (10% of which by interested readers).
How to navigate through the pages of the site
To get an idea of the purpose of the topics covered in the site's sections, you can read the last page of the section Over the life, entitled The meaning of human life and the liberation of the conscious Ego. It encloses in itself the idea that this life is a preparatory condition for the formation and evolution of the conscious Ego, so that it can continue to exist beyond the death of the body to experience other psychic dimensions. All the topics dealt with are intended to present, in an intellectually honest, shared and possibly documented way, the reasonable arguments that lead to this conclusion.
In order to better understand the meaning attributed to expressions such as «conscious Ego» and «human psyche» and terms such as consciousness, memory, intelligence, etc., it is advisable to read at once the Definitions page in the Human psyche section. In any case, all the pages in this section should be read carefully, because they help to understand the difference between the conscious Ego and the psychic experiences which involve the Ego, as well as to initiate a path of detachment of the conscious Ego from the human psyche, in order to be able to evaluate the various psychic manifestations in a more detached way. Bear in mind that in our culture the term psyche is regarded as an equivalent of mental activity, and the identification of the conscious Ego with the psychic experiences that involve it is taken for granted. This results in an excessive personalization of psychic experiences, as evidenced by the common and shallow use of expressions such as my (or your) psyche, which do not allow to distinguish between the experimenting subject, the object of the experience and the power of involvement and domination exercised by the latter on the subject.
Since psychic experiences are determined by mental activity, and therefore by the brain's functioning and the stimuli our psychophysical system receives from both the external environment and our body, the Life on earth section shows a synthetic picture of the origin of the human body as part of the phenomenon that has led to life evolution on our planet. However, our psychic experiences are largely determined by the programs that have been transmitted to us by the socio-cultural system in which we have been raised, and also by those people with whom we must continually interact within the system that keeps us alive. So in the same section some pages are devoted to the cultural evolution of human societies, and to the differences between the simplest and mainly static societies, and the more complex ones. The influence of socio-cultural conditioning on mental activity and psychic experiences is further deepened in the section The human psyche.
In addition to psychic experiences that can be considered normal or ordinary, in the sense that almost all human beings can experience them as long as their brains work regularly and the necessary circumstances occur, there are other uncommon experiences that are discussed in the section Non-ordinary states. It starts with dreams, which can be considered as normal psychic experiences (since almost every person dreams and many people remember much of the dreams they make), because during sleep some peculiar and uncommon psychic experiences may occur, such as lucid dreams, or dreams that are indistinguishable from the reality of the waking state, or body separations (OBEs). Some persons have a special talent that allows them to easily access these experiences, which are precluded to the majority of people.
Among the uncommon psychic experiences, a special emphasis is given to the NDEs, to which the Near death exp. section is dedicated. The importance attributed to these experiences is due both to the fact that they seem to refer, at least in part, to a state in which the conscious Ego is separate from the physical body, and to the critical condition in which the brain of the subject involved in the experience can be. Given that such conditions could also result in irreversible death, they are often referred to as pre-death experiences or deathbed experiences, but these expressions are inaccurate. Even the expression near death is not particularly appropriate. Indeed, in most cases, the risk of death, when the experience occurs, really exists and can be high, although it is clear that people who experienced NDEs survived and recovered their mental faculties. However, in some cases, NDEs occurred when the subject was in coma or in a presumed unconscious state. The risk of death and the critical condition of subjects who experienced some NDEs have led to consider these experiences as testimonies of the survival of the conscious Ego to the body's death: this has not been proven, but they certainly refer to a psychic dimension very different from the one that characterizes our human life.
All the particular and uncommon psychic experiences dealt with in the Non-ordinary states and Near death experiences sections are typically subjective, in the sense that there are no other witnesses that can validate them, in addition to the experimenting subject. Instead, in the Psychic phenomena section, we report unusual experiences that have undeniable objective features, since they were tested and witnessed by a plurality of subjects, and in some cases documented by recording devices. As an example, recordings of mediumistic sessions with direct voices can be downloaded and listened to from this page, in the section dedicated to the History of a medium.
The objectivity of mediumistic phenomena, and more generally the assessment of the reality and authenticity of paranormal phenomena, has given rise to a field of study which, since the end of the nineteenth century, has been called psychical research, metapsychic, and finally with today's most used term: parapsychology. Some guidelines on the orientation of these studies, the investigations carried out by Italian researchers, the results obtained and the explanatory hypotheses brought forth are shown in the section Psychical research.
The final section, Over the life, presents the conclusions that can be reached at the end of this long and complex path, and also at the end of human life. The conscious Ego has formed, developed and evolved in this life, but all of its experiences are determined by the psychic tunings that involve it through mental activity. Most of these experiences are determined by the needs of the human body, and, when they are not neutral, they carry with them an emotional component that involves the Ego either negatively, through forms of distress and suffering, or positively, in terms of pleasure, enthusiasm and happiness. Some experiences involving a minority of human beings may reveal the possibility of existing in other dimensions, where the psychic tunings experimentable by the conscious Ego are more in accordance with the needs of its spiritual and incorporeal part.

I am very fortunate to have many amazing people in my life, and some of them are helping me make my dream come true. Our goal is to produce the best quality Chinese learning resources and content for you to access at a low cost.
Now, let me introduce my team to you.
Hi, I'm Brenden Hiroshi King, and I run a photography business named Hiroshi Foto. In case you are wondering, I am Japanese-American. I don't speak Japanese, but I do speak Cantonese. I married a beautiful woman whom you know as the Fortune Cookie Mom, and we have four children.
For me, hobbies generally turn into somewhat of an unhealthy addiction. Before I lived in Hong Kong, my hobby was fly fishing, but I had to find a new hobby because fly fishing is hard to do here. And that new hobby is photography which I have been doing for about a year now. You can check out my website or follow me on Instagram or Facebook.
I studied many things in college, but I finally graduated as a (very well rounded) International Business Management Major.
Here, I help with the various aspects of the business: legal issues, photography, website and server maintenance, design and art direction, and much more! My wife and I are the perfect teams, and I am amazed and how much she has been able to accomplish. If you have any questions for me, leave a comment or shoot me an email at email@example.com.

Hello, everyone! I am Kirin Lo. I have known Po Tim for a long time because our parents are good friends. A couple of months ago, she and her husband invited me to dinner and presented their big dream, Fortune Cookie Mom. That night, I decided to join them and help because helping others through my art is my dream.,
My passion for drawing has been cultivated since I was a very young boy. I self-taught myself by reading Japanese comics and watching Japanese animation. Now, I have been working at an art studio in Hong Kong since 2006, and I teach students of all different age groups. I mainly draw comics, but I also love drawing with watercolors, acrylics, and pens. Besides working as a teacher, I have submitted, published, and sold some comics on my own in the past. It was fun.
Besides drawing, I also teach guitar, and I have a band with my talented friends. We occasionally perform at weddings, dances, and other programs.
I am excited to work with Po Tim and improve the quality of all the printables and resources on her site. I'm grateful that Po Tim has provided me access to help others through my art. If you like my art and want more, you are welcome to go to Fortune Cookie Mom's Store. You can also follow my two Instagram accounts. Nice to meet you all!

HI! I'm KaKa. Kirin was my art teacher and he taught me many skills, including drawing and painting. Now, I am his assistant. over the past few years, I watched Kirin make beautiful clipart in his free time between classes. He said he is making all of them for a friend who's a blogger. I was very interested and curious in what he was doing. Finally, I decided to ask if I could join him and help create clipart for Po Tim's Chinese printables and blog. I'm so glad that I joined them.
I have loved drawing ever since I was little. I'm studying Art education in Hong Kong and hope I can teach and help others through art. I specialize in "cute version" of objects, thats what I like the most.
Besides drawing, I love watching movies and modeling for photos.
I'm excited to team up with them and see my artworks inspire others.

Eye Care
Committed to Eye Care
At Dawkins & Lodge we are commited to providing the full package for the care of your eyes.
We offer a comprehensive service including eye tests (NHS, Private and the Eyeplan™ Scheme) and advanced diagnostic testing (Field Tests, Retinal Photography and Optical Coherence Tomography).
Eyesight Tests
The NHS recommends that everyone has a sight test, once every two years, and more regularly for certain groups. It is not only about correcting problems with your vision. An eye sight test can also indicate the presence of other health conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure and even brain tumours.
Many eye conditions are hereditary, and those with history of problems in the family are recommended to have a more frequent sight test, usually annually. In addition, the youngest and more elderly are recommended for annual testing, or more often. Finally, some ethnic groups are recommended for more frequent testing.
Included in the changes to funding in the NHS has been the tightening on rules relating to when people can have eye operations. This makes it ever more important that the earliest possible dianosis is achieved to enable the right care packages to be put into place to minimise the effects of any disease affacting the eyes.
Our Sight Tests & Opticians
All of our Sight Tests, whether they are NHS, Private or through our Eyeplan™ package, are equally thorough. Our two Primary Opticians are owner, Nigel Gemmell, who has over 30 years' experience with the Optical Profession, and founder of the business, Mike Dawkins. Mike has been testing the eyes of the people of Hythe and Waterside for over 40 years.
In addition, we offer a Domicilliary Site Testing service, where patients can be tested within the comfort of their own homes.
NHS Sight Tests - who is eligible?
The following people are eligible for free sight tests through the NHS:
- Under 16s
- Under 19 and in full-time education
- Over 60s
- Registered as blind or partially sighted
- Over 40 AND having a direct relative who has glaucoma
- You've been advised by an Opthalmologist that you are at risk of glaucoma
- Prisoners on leave from prison
- You are eligible for a NHS Complex Lens Voucher
In addition, you are eligible for a free sight test if you are in receipt of any of the following benefits:
- Income Support
- Income Based Job Seekers Allowance (not contribution based)
- Pension Guarantee Credit
- Income Based Employment and Support Allowance (not contribution based)
- Entitled to or named on a valid NHS Tax Credit Exemption Certificate
- Named on a valid NHS Certificate for full help with Health Costs (HC2)
Domiciliary NHS Sight Test
In addition to meeting the criteria for the NHS Test, those patients who meet the criteria below are eligible for a Domiciliary NHS Sight Test. This is where the optometrist comes to you either in your own home, care home or day centre.
- At home - if you are unable to leave home unaccompanied due to disability or physical or mental illness
- At your care home - if you normally live there, and you are unable to leave home unaccompanied due to disability or physical or mental illness
- At a day care centre - if you would have difficulty getting a sight test from an optometrist at their practice because of disability or physical or mental illness or because you have difficulty communicating your health needs without help
Private Sight Test
All other members of the community can pay for a private sight test. Also, people who qualify for a NHS test can pay for a private sight test if they wish for one to be undertaken more regularly than the NHS permits.
Patients can have a private sight test as frequently as they wish, although we would recommend this at two yearly intervals.
Eyeplan™ Scheme
Dawkins & Lodge Opticians have teamed up with Eyeplan™ to provide the best in optical care for our patients. For a relatively small monthly fee, patients enjoy unlimited access to our services, as well as greatly reduced costs against spectacles, contact lenses and all other products.
Patients who join our Eyeplan™ Eye Care Scheme, which requires payment of a modest monthly fee, receive free sight tests. In addition to the sight test, an OCT scan is undertaken - also free of charge. Patients are welcome to have as many sight tests as they feel necessary, so this scheme is particularly inviting to those with eye disease.
eyeplanTM Scheme
a great way to look after your eyes and get great value on your eye wear
For more information, please Contact Us, pop in to the Hythe Practice or call us on 023 8084 3798
Diagnostic Tools
We can check for Visual Fields where the Optician feels it is advantageous, and use Retinal Photography to aid the diagnostic process. We can also undertake an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scan of your eye, which can show problems from their earliest stages, giving a head start on diagnosis and enabling earlier treatment, with the best possible chance of avoiding sight loss.
Retinal Photography
We utilise a retinal camera to photograph the interior surface of the eye, including the retina, optical disc, macula and posterior pole (the fundus).
This gives our Optometrists the opportunity to monitor progression of a disease, to screen for potential problems and to provide comparisons with previous photographs to see where changes to the retina have occurred.
Optical Coherence Tomography
This is the very latest technology designed to aid optical professionals detect eye disease at the earliest stages.
In lay-persons terms, this is the equivalent of the "optical ultrasound", although in fact it achieves higher resolution imaging than either ultrasound or MRI.
There is no "norm" for the eye and we are all individuals but by ensuring an image is taken of your retina, at an early stage, it is easier to see when changes occur and to take appropriate action.
Visual Field Testing
Dawkins & Lodge are a DVLA approved testing centre for Visual Fileds. As well as carrying out Field testing on behalf of the DVLA, we also undertake Field Testing for those considered at risk of Glaucoma.
This is combined with our other methods of tracking the development of this eye disease and gives the best possible route towards early diagnosis and care.

Almost all women will experience PMS at some point in their lives. While the symptoms are mild and infrequent for many, for others PMS can be a veritable nightmare. It's likely this complex condition has multiple causes, with fluctuations in hormone levels and nutritional deficiencies playing key roles. The good news is that there are natural solutions that can help reduce or eliminate the symptoms.
Keep reading to learn more about PMS and find out which lifestyle and diet modifications and supplements can relieve PMS symptoms.
What is PMS?
PMS is characterized by a collection of physical and emotional symptoms that occur in the weeks before menstruation. Common emotional symptoms include [1, 2]:
- Irritability
- Anger
- Moodiness
- Depression
Common physical symptoms include:
- Headaches
- Tiredness
- Breast tenderness
- Muscle aches
- Sleep problems
- Acne and skin blemishes
- Bloating
- Indigestion
- Constipation
- Diarrhea
- Stomach pains
- Cravings for chocolate or sweets
So what is PMS exactly and why do symptoms vary so much between women?
Women's bodies normally undergo cyclic changes in order to prepare for a potential pregnancy. Estrogens and progesterone, hormones produced in the ovaries, control these changes. These are, in turn, stimulated by the hormones LH (luteinizing hormone), FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), and GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone), which are produced in the brain.
These cyclic changes are believed to play a key role in PMS symptoms. However, there's more to PMS than hormonal changes and researchers are still unclear about causes it. While changes in hormone levels during a monthly cycle may play a role, there are also other factors involved. For example, although hormone fluctuations can cause swelling, breast tenderness and pain, and weight gain, they may not be a factor in the emotional symptoms women often experience [1, 3].
PMS symptoms may be related to how the brain interprets physical changes during menstruation. Women that have differently-wired brains may have a more difficult time coping with hormonal changes affecting their bodies [4, 3].
Other studies point to nutritional deficiencies as the source of PMS symptoms [5, 6, 7].
Up to 95% of women of reproductive age will experience some degree of PMS. While most will only experience a mild form, around 5% of women may experience a more severe form of PMS called premenstrual dysphoric disorder, or PMDD. PMDD is considered a depressive disorder in which symptoms are severe enough to affect normal work, academic, or social activities [8].
Possible Causes of PMS
1) High Estradiol (Estrogen)
Estradiol (E2) is the most active estrogen in the body. It's important not just for reproductive function, but also for brain and thyroid function, bone health, and maintaining a healthy weight [9, 10].
If you have higher blood estradiol levels during the second half of your menstrual cycle, this can result in more severe PMS symptoms. Additionally, hormonal therapy with estradiol can also increase the severity of PMS symptoms [11, 12].
If your PMS is interfering with your life, it's wise to check and monitor your hormone levels. You can do this with a simple blood test. The estradiol (17-beta-estradiol, E2) test is the most commonly used estrogen test, but you may also want to check your estrone (E1) levels.
2) High Progesterone
Progesterone is another hormone that plays an important role in reproduction. This hormone helps regulate the menstrual cycle and helps prepare the body for pregnancy [13].
Like estradiol, increased blood progesterone levels are linked to more severe PMS symptoms [11]. In a study of 18 women, high progesterone levels throughout the menstrual cycle were associated with more severe PMS symptoms. Increases in progesterone levels preceded symptoms by 5 – 7 days [14].
You can monitor progesterone levels by getting regular blood or urine tests.
3) High Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
Luteinizing hormone (LH) is produced in the brain and signals the ovaries to produce estradiol and progesterone. It also causes the ovaries to release an egg (ovulation), and supports the early stages of pregnancy [15].
High LH levels during the second half of menstruation are associated with bad mood and more severe PMS symptoms [12].
You can check your LH levels by doing an LH blood test. If your LH levels are out of balance, check out Lab Test Analyzer. It will tell you what your results mean and provide you with lifestyle, diet, and supplement recommendations to help you get back on track and relieve your PMS symptoms.
4) Other Hormones
There are also conflicting results regarding the association between PMS symptoms and other hormones, such as [16]:
5) Iron Deficiency
PMS symptoms may actually be due to causes unrelated to your hormone levels. One example of this is anemia due to iron deficiency [17].
Taking dietary and iron supplements for 2 months reduced PMS symptoms considerably in a study of 40 women with anemia [18].
In a large study, eating an iron-rich diet was linked to a 31% lower risk of developing premenstrual syndrome [5].
If you have a tendency towards anemia, you should monitor your iron and ferritin levels, in addition to your hemoglobin levels. If your PMS goes away or decreases when your iron levels improve, you've found the culprit for your symptoms.
6) Low Magnesium
Another factor that may be causing or aggravating your PMS symptoms is a lack of magnesium. Magnesium is important for nerve and muscle function, both of which can be affected in PMS [19].
Several studies show that magnesium supplements can improve PMS symptoms. You can check if yours are low by doing a simple blood or a 24-hour urine test. Magnesium deficiency is easy to correct, but it may take some time for the effects to show (2 months) [6, 20, 21, 19].
7) Low Manganese and Calcium
Women with PMS can have low blood manganese and calcium levels [7].
In a small study of 10 women, low dietary manganese and calcium intake increased mood and pain symptoms during PMS [22].
You can check your manganese levels by doing a simple blood test.
Natural Ways To Relieve PMS Symptoms
Lifestyle Modifications
1) Relaxation Techniques
Relaxation techniques, including meditation and cognitive-behavioral relaxation therapy, may help relieve PMS symptoms [23, 24].
2) Acupuncture
Studies have shown an improvement in PMS symptoms, especially pain, after acupuncture [25, 26].
3) Exercise
Exercise will help with PMS symptoms. Aerobic exercise (running, hiking, swimming, etc.) seems to work best in relieving physical symptoms [27, 28].
4) Yoga
Yoga can also help relieve physical symptoms, and especially aid with reducing pain [29].
5) Quit Smoking
Your PMS symptoms may improve if you quit smoking. Women who smoke report more problematic PMS symptoms [1].
Diet and Supplements
6) Eat Less Salt and Carbs
Women experiencing PMS often crave salty or sweet foods. But these foods may actually aggravate your symptoms. Eating less salt and carbs can prevent swelling in women who experience this symptom [30].
7) Drink Less Alcohol
Alcohol increases your chances of experiencing PMS. Drinking less alcohol may help reduce PMS symptoms [31].
8) Eat an Iron-rich Diet
In a study of 116,678 US nurses, eating an iron-rich diet was linked to a 31% lower risk of PMS [5].
Make sure your diet contains enough iron. These foods are rich in iron:
- Meat and poultry
- Fish
- Green vegetables such as spinach and broccoli
- Beans and lentils, if properly soaked to remove phytates and other anti-nutrients that reduce iron absorption
- Nuts and seeds
- Dried fruits
9) Manganese
Low dietary manganese can worsen your mood and aggravate pain symptoms in PMS [22].
To increase manganese in your diet, consume more:
- Whole grains
- Nuts
- Tofu
- Sweet potatoes
- Chickpeas
- Leafy vegetables, such as spinach
- Tea
10) Saffron
One of the oldest uses of saffron is for the treatment of PMS [32].
When women were exposed to the smell of saffron for as little as 20 minutes, this significantly reduced symptoms of PMS and improved their irregular periods. This effect occurred through a reduction of the stress hormone cortisol [33].
Additionally, in another study, saffron supplementation daily for two months reduced symptoms of PMS [32].
11) Chasteberry (Vitex agnus castus)
In many clinical studies, chasteberry reduced a variety of PMS symptoms including breast pain and tenderness, swelling, constipation, irritability, depressed mood, anger, and migraines [34].
In one study (DB-RCT), women with PMS treated with chasteberry over 6 months experienced significantly reduced breast pain and tenderness, swelling, constipation, irritability, depression, and migraines [35].
Chasteberry may alleviate PMS symptoms by decreasing prolactin, which restores estrogen levels. Additionally, chasteberry reduces progesterone levels, normalizing the ratio of progesterone to estrogen. These hormonal adjustments may provide significant relief from symptoms during PMS [36].
12) Omega-3 Fatty Acids
EPA and DHA reduce PMS symptoms such as mood swings, fatigue, and depression in a study of 124 women [37].
In a study of 70 women, krill oil reduced stress, depression, irritability, and the reliance on pain relievers [38].
13) Fennel
Fennel reduced the severity of symptoms in 90 young women with moderate to severe PMS [39].
14) Magnesium
Several studies show that magnesium supplements can improve PMS symptoms [6, 20, 21, 19].
15) Curcumin
Another supplement that may help with PMS symptoms is curcumin. It prevents decreases in BDNF levels, which in turn improves both psychological and physical PMS symptoms [40, 41].
16) Calcium
Studies show that calcium supplementation relieves anxiety, depression, swelling, and pain in women experiencing PMS [42, 43].
Other Supplements That May Help
- Vitamin D [44, 45]
- Vitamin E [44, 46]
- Brewer's yeast [47]
- Saint John's wort [48]
- Ginkgo biloba [49]
- Royal Jelly [50]
- Tryptophan [51]
- Myoinositol [52]

Summer is officially here, and we have already had record highs this season so we know you have already cranked up your air conditioner. Have you noticed a spike in your electric bill? Here are some energy saving tips from our highly trained team of professional service technicians.
Install and set a programmable thermostat — it could help you save up to 10 percent on heating and cooling costs a year.
Use a fan. Ceiling fans will allow you to raise the thermostat setting about 4 degrees without impacting your comfort.
Follow a preventative maintenance program for your HVAC equipment. HVAC Maintenance is important to keep your system running at peak performance.
Replace your A/C filters this summer. Dirty filters restrict air flow and can cause your system to run longer, increasing your energy use. Replace the filter once a month for maximum benefit.
Don't heat your home with appliances. On hot days, consider using an outdoor grill instead of your oven.
Install energy-efficient window coverings that let natural light in and prevent solar heat gain.
Use the bathroom fan when taking a shower or bath and a range hood when cooking — this helps remove heat and humidity from your home.
Lower your water heater temperature to 120°F degrees. Your shower will still be steamy and you'll save by heating less water. Also, make sure you have that water heater checked regularly.
If your air conditioner is not keeping you and your family comfortable of if your energy bill has spiked contact us today we can help.

I read somewhere recently that we assume men are single by choice and women are single by force. The entire quote was really dope, but I've been digging through the thorns of Tumblr for ten minutes trying to find it to avail, so suffice it to say that was the main point.
The title of this post sounds like I'm about to get really angry and condemn the modern rules of dating. So let me dilute it a bit with the disclaimer that I have made a lot of the assumptions about single men vs. single women that I think too many people are guilty of. There is a lot that I could write in this post. I could talk about how single men having lots of random sex are labeled players and single women who do it are labeled whores. I could talk about how men staying single until age 50 are lifelong bachelors, but women who do it are lonely cat ladies. But, there are a host of dissertations you could probably read on either of those topics, so I won't belabor those points.
Instead, something I've considered a lot recently is how men who hate being single are perceived up against their female counterparts.
I know a lot of men who are serial daters–some of whom I've dated and others who I just know. They jump from one relationship to the next. If they find themselves inhabiting single status, they can't seem to survive without at least one potential interest to text at any given moment. They require a consistent source of attention (in addition to other activities) from the opposite sex.
What's strange is that I never really considered men who serially date as being insecure, desperate or clingy. But, those are the same words we would probably sling at women who possessed those same serial dating tendencies. When men say how much they love relationships and being in love, it's very easy to go, "Aw, he's so sweet!" But, when a woman says that, the natural reaction is to raise our brow and feel compelled to hand her a self-esteem pamphlet. Women get out of relationships and we encourage them to take some time for themselves. Men get out of them and we don't think twice if they are in another one six months later.
I haven't called someone my boyfriend in four years, so for all intents and purposes, I've been single for that amount of time. Do not ask me about one-sided infatuations, "talking to someone" or other forms of millennial romantic connection because those don't count. What I've learned during these four years is that there is an enormous difference between not liking to be single and not being able to be single. It's one thing not to enjoy being single; I don't necessarily see anything wrong with that. Despite the "Being single is the best thing since sliced bread" rhetoric that runs rampant, some people are just relationship people–they function better as part of a unit. (I am not one of those people, but I get it.) But, it's another thing to not be able to gather the patience and independence required to be single.
Because, that's pretty much what being single is about at its core–patience and independence. Most of us are made to love (cue John Legend), so I assume we believe that there is someone out there for designed for us. That's the patience. And, the independence is obvious. You have to carry those groceries up the stairs by yourself a hell of a lot. Beyond that, you have to collect and maintain your self-esteem, your interests and your entire life independent of another important person cheering you on, challenging you or validating your choices.
Whether you are a man or a woman, I take issue with someone who requires attention from the opposite sex constantly. Attention is nice and cute and all of that other cupcake-y stuff, but it's also sickeningly ephemeral. Usually. The same people who we have marathon text sessions with become irrelevant specks in our history. First we're driving into them in a head-on collision and a few months later, they are mirages in the rearview mirror. That is why when I get worked up about men, I remind myself that this, too, shall pass. It always does. It always has. And, until I settle down and hyphenate my last name, it probably always will.
So, I see it as a problem if you can't make it through a week without someone jumping into your DMs or blowing up your phone. Begging for attention invites a lot of shallow characters into your life, people who will capitalize on every insecurity you have. They'll eat away at your self-doubt and try to disguise it as love. Building your core based on the shiny object of other people's attention ensures it will never be able to stand on its own. It will always be rotten. And, that's a promise, no matter what shape your genitals are.

The Harbor Drive Multimodal Corridor Study is identifying opportunities to improve mobility, safety and quality of life for everyone who lives, works or plays along Harbor Drive and in the surrounding communities near San Diego's Working Waterfront.
About the Study
The Harbor Drive Multimodal Corridor Study is a planning study to examine how people use Harbor Drive, address existing issues and challenges, and identify opportunities for improvement. The study focuses on the stretch of Harbor Drive between the Port of San Diego's two cargo terminals, the Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal in San Diego and the National City Marine Terminal, known as San Diego's Working Waterfront.
The study considers all modes of transportation used by residents, visitors and businesses in the area – foot, bicycle, passenger vehicle, bus, cargo truck, light rail, cargo rail, and vessel. The goal is to identify potential improvement projects, large and small, that could be implemented by the Port and/or other jurisdictions as funding becomes available.
The Port's objectives are to balance the costs, benefits and impacts to the community and are consistent with the Vision and Guiding Principles established as part of the Port Master Plan Update process.
The study area falls within the jurisdictions of the City of San Diego, the City of National City, the U.S. Navy, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), the Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) and the Port of San Diego. These partners are crucial in helping the Port evaluate existing issues, identify potential high-priority projects, and tackle future solutions together.
Download Project Materials
The study began with an evaluation of existing facilities and planned projects. The following PDF file introduces the study and presents a series of maps depicting various facilities and projects in the study area:

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the excellent customer service that you provided when I called on Wednesday to confirm my installation on Thursday. You were kind and courteous and I can't thank you enough for noting that if the installers finished early they could call and come earlier to do the installation of my new windows. THANK YOU!!
I would like to also thank Nice and Ed for their professional demeanor and making the new windows beautiful, they even cleaned them for me and that in itself is a big plus. Doing windows isn't on the top of my list! I was so very grateful that they were able to come early and free up the remainder of my day!
Thank you all and please pass this along to whomever might want to see it.
Thank you all again!!Thanks so much.

Can't decide between a beach break or the buzz of a big city? Why choose between the two? There are plenty of coastal cities in Europe where you get the best of both worlds. Ideal for a beachy weekend break or even a long term base.
Also along the Atlantic Coast is a contender for Europe's best city beach: the stunning shell-shaped Concha Bay in San Sebastián (also known as Donostia, its Basque name). La Concha boasts 1400km of beautiful sand that arcs around Santa Clara island. This classy city is a famed foodie haven with its Belle Epoque waterfront and is backed by green mountains which protect it from the worst of the winds.
Many tourists bypass the city of Alicante and head straight for one of the beach resorts of the Costa Blanca. But it's an excellent city break destination in its own right, something local tourists have known for years. Its star attractions are the Santa Barbara castle and surrounding old town, and the wide palm-lined sands of Playa del Postiguet.
The French city of Nice was one of the Mediterranean's original tourist resorts. Its colourful streets and well-served airport make a great city break destination today. Nice is known as the gateway to the French Riviera, but with its large beach (small pebbles) old town and art museums, there's little need to leave the city on a short break.
If this list was in order then Barcelona would be at number 1. The Catalan capital is the destination that has it all: plenty of fine sandy beach – the most famous being Barceloneta – as well as world-class food, art, architecture, and nightlife. Little wonder it's one of the most popular destinations in Europe.
Another underrated Spanish city is Malaga, the capital of the Costa del Sol. Andalucian culture is alive and well in the narrow streets of Malaga's old town, where you'll find the Alcazaba – an 11th-century Moorish citadel, Roman ruins and the new Picasso Museum. Also named after the city's most famous son is the promenade that runs alongside the many kilometres of sandy beach.
The popular city of Dubrovnik attracts crowds of tourists for its immaculate medieval old town (and Game of Thrones filming locations). But it also makes a great beach break. The most famous beach is Banje, which located just outside the city walls so you can easily combine your sightseeing with a spot of sunbathing.
But you can also turn your trip into a beach break by staying in the Lapad area of Dubrovnik which is home to many resort hotels. The coastline and islands immediately surrounding the city is full of charming smaller resorts such as Cavtat which are linked to the city by boat in high season.
Spain's third largest city rivals Barcelona for beach and culture. Gorgeous Valencia is often overlooked by tourists in favour of the big two, but it has unrivalled modern architecture as well as a medieval old town, superb beaches, and paella of course.
The French Basque city of Biarritz is a surfer favourite thanks to its big rollers and sandy Grand Plage. But Biarritz was also once a spa resort town favoured by the rich and royal, who flocked here for its cooling Atlantic winds and glitzy vibes. Come here for the waves, the pleasure-seeker vibes and the delectable pintxos.
The beach is within easy reach of most of Portugal's big cities – in Porto and Lisbon it's a short ride on the train or bus. But Lagos, in the popular Algarve coastal region, has a number of sandy city beaches and is close to some of the Algarve's truly spectacular beaches including the famous stairs of Praia do Camilo. The historic city centre is a maze of whitewashed buildings and patterned cobbled streets.
Not many people think of Athens for a beach break, but hitting the beach is the number one summer activity for those living in the Greek capital.
Athens is located right by the sea, and you can hop on the coastal tram from Syntagma Square and alight at any beach which takes your fancy. During the summer the city's nightlife moves to its many beach clubs.
If you're looking for accommodation by the beach rather than in the city have a look at suburban seaside towns such as Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, Voula and Varkiza.
The premier city of the Balearic islands is also one of the best destinations for a beach and city break that you can find in Europe. The 13th century Santa Maria cathedral and Serre de Tramuntana mountains provide a spectacular backdrop to the golden sands of C'an Pere Antoni beach. The Palma area is a popular resort destination so you'll find plenty of beach hotels and apartments along the coast.
Much-maligned Benidorm is often associated with boarish drunken Brits. But the lager louts have moved on and Benidorm is full of surprises: it's a popular beach destination for Spaniards has an excellent tapas scene. Once a tiny fishing village, its three Blue Flag beaches are now lined with skyscraper apartment blocks – but it's also home to some of the continent's most forward-thinking sustainable tourism policies. For fun in the sun at an affordable price, Benidorm is hard to beat.
Las Palmas is a city on the up. Located in Spain's Canary Islands, the climate on Gran Canaria is pleasant year-round – Surfers and digital nomads come for the pleasant year-round climate and big city beach Playa de las Canteras and stay for the unique Canarian culture, colonial architecture, excellent hiking, sub-tropical flora and crazy Carnival celebrations.
Albania is a whole country on the up, particularly when it comes to beach destinations. And one of the most popular is the seaside city of Saranda (or Sarandë), which is easily accessed by ferry from the Greek island of Corfu and shares the same beautiful blue Ionian sea and fabulous beaches. It's a lively city in the summer – with plenty of beach bars – and the area is also known for its historic sites.
One beach city which might not spring to mind immediately is Santander on Spain's northern coast. The Cantabrian capital has a lively nightlife thanks to its student population and also scores highly in the food and architecture stakes. El Sardinero is the end of town where you'll find the beaches.
- Ok so it's not technically Europe, but Turkey has lots of great beach cities – Izmir, Kusadasi, Bodrum, Antalya, Alanya
- Durrës and Vlorë serve up similar charms to Sarandë but further north in Albania
- Rimini is Italy's most popular resort city thanks to its huge sandy beach, and don't forget Venice also has beaches
- Croatian coastal cities include Split, Zadar, Sibenik, Opatija
- In Montenegro, you'll find the large resort towns of Budva Bar, and Ulcinj along the coast

Simon Pegg has joined Amazon's The Boys series as Hughie's father. The comic book series for which the show is based on was created by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson in 2006, telling the tale of a group of vigilante heroes set in a world where corrupted super powered individuals reign supreme. Amazon is set to bring a live-action adaptation of The Boys comic book to life from the minds of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, after seeing their success in adapting Ennis' other beloved comic Preacher for AMC.
The Boys started production earlier this year with Eric Kripke serving as the showrunner and Dan Trachtenberg directing the first episode. They assembled a great cast led by Karl Urban as Billy Butcher, who is the leader of the vigilante squad. However, the main character in the comic books is "Wee" Hughie Campbell. Jack Quaid is playing him in the series, but Ennis and Robertson originally created the character's look based on Simon Pegg. Since Pegg couldn't play Hughie, he found another part in the series.
Related: The Boys Wouldn't Have Happened Without Preacher's Success
During The Boys' panel at New York Comic Con, they surprised those in attendance by bringing Simon Pegg onto the stage unannounced. As the inspiration for Hughie, it was a cool moment for fans of the series alone, but the announcement that followed was even better. They confirmed that he has been cast in the series and will play Hughie's father in The Boys. The show's official Twitter account then shared the news publicly with a nice image of Quaid and Pegg together, while responding to all the incoming thanks from fans by saying "You're welcome."
Since Pegg was the inspiration for Hughie, this is the perfect role for him to play in The Boys. Pegg's already been connected to the comic book series before by writing a foreword in a collectors set of the first six issues of the series. He's previously and correctly pointed out that he simply couldn't play Hughie in the show even if he wanted to due to the age difference, so getting him to be his father is the next best option. Screen Rant was at the panel where Pegg offered up a tease of how Mr. Dougie Campbell is: "His father is a spectre of his own inaction." Kripke added, "[He's] Hughie, if Hughie never met Butcher."
With Pegg now among the cast members for The Boys, he is the latest star to join. The entire main cast was previously announced together, while the addition of Karen Fukuhara as The Female came later. There is still no official release date for the series, but with the presence at New York Comic Con, more information could come before the convention ends.

'What the hell?' Aussie Open moment the world couldn't believe

After two lacklustre semi-finals, the showdown in the Australian Open final between the two top-ranked men's players was billed as an instant classic.
Tennis fans were expecting to sit down and watch a gruelling contest between two absolute warriors just like the one they put on back in 2012.
How wrong we were.
Sunday night was supposed to be equivalent of Muhammad Ali taking on George Foreman. Instead, it looked more like Sonny Bill Williams fighting Australian Bachelorette winner Stu Laundy.
Novak Djokovic showed why he has such a firm grip on the No. 1 ranking by completely obliterating Rafael Nadal, winning 6-3 6-2 6-3.
The sheer brutality of the opening set had to be seen to be believed with Djokovic only losing one point off his own serve. It came 33 minutes into the match at 5-3 when he hit a groundstroke into the net.
Australian tennis legend Pat Cash summed up the opening set by proclaiming a "nervous" Nadal had reverted to playing a style that night work on his favoured clay, but doesn't cut it on the hardcourt of Rod Laver Arena.
"A combination of Djokovic coming out playing incredible and Nadal being a little nervous," Cash tweeted.
"Rafa reverted to playing clay court tennis because he's not confident. It's not going to work when Novak is playing this well."
Things didn't get any better for Nadal as Djokovic strolled away with the straight sets victory in a little over two hours.
The massacre was perfectly summed up in the opening set when Nadal had an unbelievable air swing when attempting a forehand. It looked like his racquet hit his knee on the way through, missing the ball completely.
Finals jitters for Rafa? #AusOpen pic.twitter.com/xs2LMyttQy— #AusOpen (@AustralianOpen) January 27, 2019
The moment left fans utterly speechless as many proclaimed the final had simply proved too much for the Spanish Bull.
Commentator Lleyton Hewitt said he couldn't recall ever seeing Nadal make such an extraordinary blooper.
An AIR SWING? I've seen it all.— Matt Trollope (@MattyAT) January 27, 2019
Nadal has an airie??? What the hell!???? #ausopen— Greg Jericho (@GrogsGamut) January 27, 2019
When was the last time you saw Nadal miss a forehand like that!— Justin Flitter (@JustinFlitter) January 27, 2019
A Rafa air swing gives Djokovic a 5-2 lead. Djokovic is still winning 100% of points on serve #ausopen— Reem Abulleil (@ReemAbulleil) January 27, 2019
The world reacting to that incredible Rafa Nadal air swing is how a 30-plus year old increasingly reacts to each subsequent #Hottest100.— James Maasdorp (@MaasdorpJR) January 27, 2019
Fans couldn't believe what they were seeing as Nadal simply had no answers for the Serbian.
Nadal had blitzed his way through the two weeks of the tournament, not dropping a single set at Melbourne Park before Sunday night.
As soon as the final got underway it was clear this was a completely different beast he was dealing with.
The loss makes it the first time in Nadal's historic career he has lost a grand slam final in straight sets.
Wow... is this the real Rafael Nadal or some sort of imposter? #AusOpen— Mark Gottlieb (@MarkGottliebFOX) January 27, 2019
But honestly not seen Nadal this weak all tournament. You realise how much mental strength means on court in addition to playing skill #AusOpenFinal— richa singh (@richa_singh) January 27, 2019
Can't remember seeing Nadal dominated this much.— Colin NOT Collins (@ColinUdoh) January 27, 2019
Nadal just can't seem to find his timing. Things just seem a little out of sync. Makes it very hard to play the aggressive tennis he needs. #AusOpen— Pat Cash (@TheRealPatCash) January 27, 2019
Of course, while there was plenty of surprise over the showing from Nadal, there was just as much love and admiration for the masterclass put on by Djokovic.
The win gives Djokovic a record seventh Australian Open crown and moves him into outright third on the list of grand slam winners with 15 major titles — going ahead of American legend Pete Sampras.
Djokovic turned back the clock and looked as good as he ever has in a final as he simply manhandled his longtime rival.
Djoker Djemolition #AusOpen— Brandon Cohen (@BrandonGCohen) January 27, 2019
We're witnessing one of the all-time great finals performances here, sports fans. #AusOpen— James Maasdorp (@MaasdorpJR) January 27, 2019
Has to be one of the best Djokovic performances I've ever seen.— Sacha Pisani (@Sachk0) January 27, 2019
Clinical and devastating. Destroying one of the all-time greats.
Stunning to watch.#AusOpen
Djokovic ruthless. And for those awaiting the next generation, he's just 31. Time on his side to still be considered the greatest. #AusOpen— Shane Harmon (@ShaneHarmon) January 27, 2019
That was freakish from Djokovic. A perfect defensive shut-down of his opponent. Nadal didn't get a look in, didn't seem himself. #ausopen— Doug Dingwall (@dougdingwall) January 27, 2019
After Petra Kvitova showed on Saturday how to be gracious in defeat, Nadal did the same by heaping praise on Djokovic.
The Spanish master was as classy as ever during his runner up speech as he vowed to come back and become an even better player as he continues his return from injury.
"It was an amazing level of tennis tonight and during both weeks (from Djokovic)," Nadal said.
"Talking about myself, it has been a very emotional two weeks. Even if tonight wasn't my best day, of course I had somebody that played much better than me tonight.
"It has been a very important two weeks for me, I have been going through tough moments during the last year … since the US Open I was not able to play a professional match until the first round of the Australian Open.
"Even if tonight was not my night, it is so important to be where I am today again coming back from injury.
"I really believed that I played a great two weeks of tennis, that's going to be a good energy, a good inspiration for myself for what's coming.
"I only can say one thing — I am going to keep fighting hard, I am going to keep working hard to be a better player.''
The king of Melbourne Park choked back tears after claiming another Australian Open crown.
He praised his opponent and reflected on the past 12 months after coming back from surgery early in 2018.
"I would like to return the favour and obviously give compliments to Rafa's couple of weeks," Djokovic said.
"Obviously a tough match tonight, but as you said, you came back from an injury that took you out from the tour since September last year and you were unfortunate throughout your career to go through some major injuries.
"But you're showing to me and to all your other colleagues and many young tennis players around the world what is the definition of the fighting spirit and resilience, so thank you for that."
He had to compose himself as he reflected on what he's achieved in the past year, winning Wimbledon, the US Open and now the Australian Open.
"Sorry, I'm just trying to contemplate on the journey in the past 12 months," he said.

Wayne Rooney – the PR battle commences
It hasn't been a good year for Wayne Rooney. Caught cavorting with prostitutes while his wife was pregnant, suffering from nagging injuries and a poor World Cup, his brand is very much flatlining.
So the publication of the news that he's refused to sign a new contract with Manchester United adds to his PR woes – particularly as he's achieved the unrivalled feat of getting Sir Alex Ferguson to talk in depth to the media rather than ducking the issue. Given Ferguson normally talks to the press under deep sufferance, this shows how seriously the club is taking the issue. Cue the headlines talking about betrayal and why he should never play for the club again.
Against this onslaught Rooney's best tactic is actually to do what he's doing – say nothing and focus on football. He's not going to win United fans round, particularly if he ends up across town at Manchester City, so it isn't worth opening his mouth and potentially putting his foot in it. Better to keep schtum, get fit and let his agent take the flak. Maybe a spot of charity work with his family, but don't make it too obvious.
As with the previous convoluted transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo, the PR battle will probably be long, vitriolic and (to the vast number of us who don't give a stuff about Manchester United) tedious. Still, at least the tabloids have plenty to write about until the January transfer window opens – it might even push X Factor off the front pages………….

August 6, 2015 – As wildfires burn in California and across many communities in the U.S., Green Builder Media will host a free webinar presented by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) on Wednesday, August 19, 2015 at 2:00 pm EDT to help builders, remodelers, architects and consumers make better choices in design and materials that are environmentally sound, and safer from wildfire.
The webinar, "Building Safer in Natural Areas – Firewise and Wildland Fire," will be hosted by Michele Steinberg, NFPA's Wildland Fire Operations Division Manager, who will discuss concepts and techniques around siting, designing, building and maintaining homes and neighborhoods to resist ignition from wildland fire. She will also explain how Firewise techniques can help reduce exposure to wildfire threat.
Increasing public awareness about wildfire safety, enhancing fire-related codes and policies, developing effective risk mitigation strategies, and creating comprehensive Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPP) is essential. Land owners, communities and businesses that are already in wildfire-prone areas need to continue to invest in fireproofing measures, and municipalities will have to plan on assuming firefighting costs and making better—and sometimes difficult—planning and zoning decisions in high risk areas to create safer places to live for residents.
"Research has shown that well-built homes and well-designed landscapes are much more likely to survive a wildfire," said Steinberg. "The building and design community has a lot to offer to help solve the challenge of home destruction in a wildfire. NFPA is pleased to present this webinar and work closely with Green Builder Media and its audience to raise awareness and continue the dialogue about the importance of wildfire safety and mitigation in communities."
The U.S. Forest Service has confirmed that wildfire seasons are increasing in length and intensity. A recent study published in Nature Communications indicates that there is "a significant lengthening of fire weather seasons across 25.3 percent of the planet's vegetated lands, leading to the elevation of mean fire season duration by up to 18.7 percent." The study also states that, "the locations, which have become prone to burning due to the long periods of fire weather, also increased by 108.1 percent."
The Firewise Communities Program encourages local solutions for safety by involving homeowners in taking individual responsibility for preparing their homes from the risk of wildfire. The program is co-sponsored by the USDA Forest Service, the US Department of the Interior, and the National Association of State Foresters.

News - God of War: Ascension
Sony Santa Monica have revealed what they were teasing over the past couple of weeks on the official PlayStation websites, and surprisingly it's not God of War 4. Instead it's God of War: Ascension, and Sony has confirmed that it's coming exclusively to PlayStation 3. If you want to watch the teaser trailer, it's embedded below:
The game is confirmed to be a prequel to the God of War series, before he is bound by the Blades of Chaos, which suggests that the gameplay in this title may be very different from what we've seen before. There's also a chance that Kratos will be taking control of the Spartan armies, as this was his role before being bound by Aries.
Sony has confirmed that they will do a live streaming event on April 30th to show more of the game, so stay tuned for more information on that.

Dating an indian girl dating partnersuche yahoo
In fact your country may be at odds with many aspects of Indian traditions and when discussing culture or politics, each of you may feel obliged to defend your country even at the risk of a potential relationship.
Rather ask your partner about her work or college she is studying.
Consequently software engineers, doctors, academicians, finance executives and entrepreneurs from India have their own associations, among whom you can find highly skilled, professional Indian women.While, as a white man, you may not be able to join such associations, ask among your Asian friends and co-workers if they can take you along to the cultural events and celebrations organized by such associations which in turn will throw you in close proximity with many single women of Indian origin in your country.Associations and events in universities with large Indian population are other great venues for meeting Indian women who may have arrived in your country to study, do research or teach.Reasons vary but they mostly have to do with the notions of high quality of life and personal freedom afforded to women in America and Western Europe.Dating and social networking sites are a particularly effective way of meeting women who are physically located in India.
This could be a sticky point since it could be a source of pride or consternation for your partner.

The first step towards fixing the water issue is for Derek Leider Masonry to perform a thorough inspection and identify the source of the leak.

Equipped with the right tools, the right knowledge, and the right attitude, we'll make waterproofing an affordable process that rights the ship before too much damage is done.

In today's "have it now" culture, we've lost the art of waiting. Charging ahead might be what you're used to, but the Bible places great value on the skill of being patient.
