Highway Commission to Pursue Ballot Issue for Road Funding
Arkansas Highway Commissioners are pinning their hopes for additional highway funding on voters.
Commissioners unanimously voted June 7 to pursue a citizen-led initiative for highway funding after the legislative session ended without such a ballot measure from legislators. A proposed ballot measure for raising the state's gas tax and an accompanying bond issue to pay for road work was filed but it didn't make the cut. Legislators only referred
two measures
to the November 2018 ballot.
"I think it's a great option for us, the only option we have, because our legislature and government leaders are just so against raising the tax," Commissioner Dick Trammel was quoted in an
Associated Press
article about the vote. "I think the people will accept we need better roads and good highways in Arkansas."
Now comes the leg work.
Supporters still have to flesh out the details of exactly what they want to put before voters - will it be an increase in the taxes on motor fuel or funding from sales tax? Will it be a constitutional amendment or an initiated act? Commissioners said they hope to decide a path by the fall.
Supporters also have to submit a ballot title and popular name to the Attorney General's Office for approval. Only after the title and name are approved can supporters collect signatures from voters to put the issue on the ballot.
Constitutional amendments require more than 84,000 voter signatures and initiated acts require more than 67,000 signatures.
The Highway Commission's vote was not the only major ballot issue decision made this month.
Members of the Arkansas Bar Association debated whether to pursue a ballot measure that would have competed with SJR8, a proposed constitutional amendment from the legislature that seeks to establish limits on how much money can be awarded in some types of lawsuits and provide legislators with authority to set court rules.
The association's amendment sought to ban limits on damages awarded in lawsuits; set campaign spending rules; increase the threshold for overriding a governor's veto; and end the legislature's oversight of state agency rules.
Delegates from the Arkansas Bar Association considered the proposal at a meeting June 16 where it
by a few votes. The outcome means the association will not pursue the measure. However, it's expected that some attorneys will continue to oppose SJR8 - one attorney
with the Arkansas Ethics Commission on June 8 to campaign against the measure.
As of June, only one group has approval from the
Attorney General
to collect signatures for a potential 2018 ballot measure. It involves term limits.
The deadline for citizen-led proposals is not until next summer.

The Public Policy Center's 2016 ballot issue education program was recognized by several organizations this month. The National Association of Community Development Extension Professionals awarded the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture its southern region and national team award for Education Technology.
The program also received a first place award from the Arkansas Press Women for Communications Campaign and Programs: Public Service and for Newsletters by a nonprofit, government or educational group. The program also placed first in the communications campaign category in the National Federation of Press Women's annual Communications Contest.
Legislative Ballot Issues
Legislators are able to refer up to three constitutional amendments to the voters every general election. These two proposals will be on the Nov. 6, 2018 ballot.
SJR8 - An Amendment Concerning Civil Lawsuits and the Powers of the General Assembly and Supreme Court to Adopt Court Rules.
Sen. Missy Irvin
HJR1016 - A Constitutional Amendment Adding as a Qualification to Vote that a Voter Present Certain Valid Photographic Identification When Casting a Ballot In Person or Casting an Absentee Ballot.
Rep. Robin Lundstrum
Looking Forward - Potential 2018 Ballot Issues from Citizens
Attorney General Opinions
The Attorney General is responsible for reviewing the language and titles of potential ballot issues submitted to voters by the public. Ballot issue groups can circulate petitions only after the Attorney General verifies that the ballot title and popular name honestly, intelligibly and fairly describe the purpose of a proposed constitutional amendment or act. The following are recent Attorney General opinions regarding potential ballot issues:
Ballot proposals rejected
June 5, 2017 -
An Act to Make the Reduced Drug Punishments of Acts 2011, No. 570 Retroactive
A proposal to
authorize a Circuit Court to reduce the sentence of any person convicted under any provision of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act if the sentence imposed exceeded provisions of Act 2011, No. 570 was rejected.
Opinion No. 2017-065
said voters could not fairly assess the effect of the proposal because the ballot title and popular name does not describe Act 2011, No. 570. Larry Froelich of Fayetteville submitted the measure.
June 7, 2017 -
The Arkansas Adult Recreation of Marijuana Amendment
- A proposal seeking to legalize the cultivation, production, distribution, sale, possession and use of marijuana, and which would release from incarceration people who were convicted of violating laws related to marijuana was rejected because of ambiguities in the text, according to
Opinion No. 2017-068
This is the second time this proposal has been rejected. See
Opinion No. 2017-060
(May 23, 2017). Mary L. Berry of Summit submitted the proposal.
June 9, 2017 - Arkansas Proportional Voting Amendment
- A proposal to change the number of Arkansas Senate districts from 35 to seven with five senators from each district and to change the number of House of Representative districts from 100 to 21 with five representatives from each district was rejected.
Opinion No. 2017-070
said the proposal was misleading and deficient as a result of failing to sufficiently summarize the substance of the proposal and describe the changes to existing state law.
Ed Frizzell of Conway submitted the measure.
June 13, 2017 - An Act Legalizing Gambling by a Municipal Ballot Measure
- A proposal to allow local ballot issue elections in a city of more than 20,000 people for the purpose of allowing gambling was rejected because its popular name was misleading and its ballot title continues to be too long, according to
Opinion No. 2017-071
This is the eighth time this proposal has been rejected, though previous versions proposed a different popular name and ballot title. The Attorney General's Office referred to those proposals in the opinion. See
Opinion No. 2017-042
(April 17, 2017),
Opinion No. 2017-029
(March 20, 2017),
Opinion No. 2017-016
(Feb. 24, 2017),
Opinion No. 2017-001
(Jan. 19, 2017),
Opinion No. 2016-133
(Dec. 27, 2016),
Opinion No. 2016-109
(Nov. 7, 2016) and
Opinion No. 2016-099
(Oct. 10, 2016). Barry Emigh of Hot Springs submitted the measure.
Ballot proposals approved for signature gathering
Oct. 28, 2016 - Arkansas Term Limits Amendment -
A proposal to reduce the number of years a state senator or representative can serve in office was certified for signature gathering, according to
Opinion No. 2016-105
. The proposal would institute six-year terms for representatives and eight-year terms for senators, with a maximum of 10 years total. The proposal would return Arkansas' term limits to what they were before a voter-approved change in 2014 that extended terms.
Thomas Steele of Little Rock submitted the measure.
The Arkansas Term Limits Amendment would reduce the number of years a state senator or representative can serve in office. Previous issues of this newsletter incorrectly said the proposal would repeal Amendment 94, which extended term limits to 16 years for members of the General Assembly. Voters approved
Amendment 94
in 2014. The amendment included multiple changes to the state constitution, including setting limits on gifts from lobbyists and creating an independent citizens commission to set pay for certain state officials. Those laws would not be affected by The Arkansas Term Limits Amendment if it is put on the ballot and passed by voters.

Why Choose First Choice Business Brokers?
Just a few of the reasons to choose First Choice:
Professional business
Daytime and weekday hours
Business-to-business only
Highly scalable
No previous experience required
The retirement of self-employed baby boomers, corporate downsizing, and the ever-improving affordability of business entities have created an enormous market for decades to come. Of even greater importance is the resiliency of our industry to economic cycles. In "good" economies, business owners know that it's a good time to sell, and buyers have the money to pay the price. In "poor" economies, business owners often need to sell, and astute entrepreneurs know that it's the time to buy. Business purchases also rarely involve external financing, so credit scores and interest rates are much less of an issue in our industry than in others.
First Choice associates receive detailed training and support plus the latest methods of attracting buyers and sellers. Education does not stop after initial training, First Choice conducts continuing education webinars at no cost to our associates. We stay relevant with the latest and most innovative technology that helps our offices and associates keep up with trends. All systems provided are proprietary, unique, and specific to First Choice procedures that have been developed over the past 26+ years.

Initial Training

Prior to the live First Choice University Training webinars you will view detailed real world recorded modules. So you can fast track your training you will be provided with the recorded module video links immediately after joining the First Choice Team.

I do what I say, my word is my honor. I always speak the truth. My integrity is a critical asset and I am committed to upholding it. I set high standards, and I abide by them as I practice business fairly and behave ethically. I share my expectations with others and strive to maintain a workplace built on mutual values, trust and goodwill.
I hold myself to the highest standard, and continually work at raising my standard. I am professional in the way I present myself, in the way that I work and in the way I communicate with people.
I am united by an unspoken pledge, bound by my convictions. I prize dedication, and am moved to help others. I am committed to achieving my vision and by doing so will help others achieve theirs.
I wholeheartedly believe in my company. Its goals and objectives are in line with my own, and I enthusiastically embrace them and relentlessly pursue them. More importantly, I truly believe in myself, my company and in what I wish to achieve in life, and I am committed to making that happen.
How I communicate with others will determine my level of success. I understand that when I am communicating, it is my responsibility to ensure I am understood. I communicate immediately when I have questions and communicate directly with the person involved. Integrity and trust are key to open communication and are the basis of our culture.
Life Balance
I enjoy life and my work. I am cheerful and happy and enjoy a balance between my work life, my leisure time, my spiritual life and my family life.
I value my time with my family and the impact that they have on my life. I spend time with each family member and work at always improving my relationship with them. I realize that while I can chose my friends I can't choose my family, so it is my responsibility to create relationships with each member that are positive to both my own life and theirs.
I realize that I cannot achieve all that I want in life on my own. I need my team, and they need me. Together we help each other achieve our goals. I realize that Together Everyone Achieves More.
I am open to learning new things. I am open to other people's points of view, and realize that they do not need to be the same as mine. I embrace change and realize that in order to be successful in life I need to be adaptable.
I am a leader. I inspire and lead my team keeping them excited and focused on our goal. I help my team achieve their goals, and in doing so I am able to achieve mine. I constantly seek to become a better leader.
Accountability & Responsibility
I am accountable for my actions and the effect these actions have on others. I realize that what I have, who I am, and who I will become is my responsibility. I seek out to improve myself, learn from my past, enjoy the present moment, and strive to create a better future for myself and my company.

The pain doesn't register at first.
The start sequence, the high 10, 15, 20 that follow…your body can handle that. You're ready for that.
It's the 800 meters you've got left that will test your training, your spirit, your will.
But the pain won't stop until you stop, and you can. not. stop.
(This is rowing. We don't take time-outs.)
Your crew is depending on you to get over the line.
When your lungs are shredded, sit up and breathe.
When your legs are burning, find just 1% more.
When your mind tells you to quit?
That's when you row with your heart.

At length we found a little inlet, the mouth of a stream which drains a large gl[acier] into which we gladly pushed our canoe, everybody benumbed. A white cross, pure white, stood as a mark and a sign of welcome on the black wave-beaten shore rocks. It was a weathered chiseled ice-berg. How pure it seemed and hopeful. A rosiny fire was speedily made and our weary benumbed limbs were warmed into common comfort again. Here were remained until next morning. Nov. 20, about daybreak, when we pushed out and rounded the big bluff Cape off the mouth of Wrangel narrows. From here nearly to the N mouth of the Stickine the shore is composed of a series of very steep, headlands streaked with waterfalls and thinly feathered with spruces, deep fiords between. At the head of one of these 10 ms. from the Cape and the second from the Stickine mouth there is a noble glacier pouring down a steep incline into a deep tidewater and sending off a multitude of bergs which fill the fiord from end to end, and float off into the Souchoi Channel and towards Prince Fred[Erick] Sound, a dist[ance] of about 40 ms. This is, as far as I know, the southmost of the gl[acier]s flowing into the sea. Toyatte was greatly exercised about the safety of his darling canoe, and begged that we would not venture to force a way through the bergs, but we held him to his work and reached a point on the right side of the fiord about {sketch: Sitideka looking Seward from N-most gl[acier].}

Despite the absurd amount of rain this weekend, I still love this time of the year. Baseball is now officially in full swing. I have something to look forward to every day – even if it's my lame-o Mets, shockingly winners of 3 in a row and now back to .500. MLBTV is one of the best gifts or investments you can make or give if you're a big baseball fan because it provides almost unlimited hours of entertainment on days with a full slate of games. I'm also really happy I asked for Sirius/XM radio for my car for Christmas this past year, because road trips and drives around town become WAY more tolerable with baseball going on. I've really enjoyed hearing some of the crews from teams I haven't listened to before – in particular, Seattle's Dave Niehaus and Rick Rizzs, and Milwaukee's Bob Uecker. I've also enjoyed being able to finally pick up a strong signal for the Royals' Denny Matthews and Bob Davis, because Columbia seems to be well outside the range of the largest MLB radio network for some reason. Meanwhile there are about 3 stations in the area with the Cardinals' broadcast…go figure.
Plus, this is the time of year with fantasy baseball at full swing. One of the leagues I'm in with guys from high school is VERY competitive, fun, and entertaining. I spend tons of time discussing matchups, stats, and funny events online with guys in the league. We only pay $20 per person to the league to pay for a trophy and provide a small prize for the eventual champion. Charting guys on our teams becomes a daily activity and helps make potentially mundane games more interesting.
If the Mets stay in contention, this will be even more fun in the fall, when college football gets started too.

Notified final felling area increases after slump in June
After a slump in notifications in June the forest owners' engagement for final felling increased considerably in July. That is shown by monthly statistics from the Swedish Forest Agency. The area notified for final felling in July was the highest in 9 years. One reason for the increase could be higher activity in forest operations due to infestation of bark beetle which leads forest owners to notify for final felling to clear damaged forests despite it being the main summer holiday month.
The total area of notified final felling in the whole country amounted to 21 644 hectares in July, which is the highest note for July since 2010 and the next highest since 2006.
The area of notified final felling increased in the whole country except in the region South of Sweden which showed a marginal decrease (1 per cent). In the region North of Sweden the area notified for final felling increased by 9 per cent to 5 710 hectares. In the region South of Northern Sweden, the notified area increased by 7 per cent to 5 967 hectares and in the region Central Sweden it increased by 6 per cent to 5 206 hectares. That is the largest area notified for final felling in the region of Northern Sweden in 8 years and in 9 years for the regions South of Northern Sweden and Central Sweden.
At county level, the notified harvest area increased in 11 of 21 counties. In Södermanland County the notified area more than doubled to 770 hectares which is the highest note for the month in 13 years. Västerbotten County also noted the highest note for the month in 13 years (3 504 hectares). In Västmanland County the notified area doubled to 350 hectares. Notifications of final felling also increased considerably in Gotland County compared to July last year – from 18 hectares 2018 to 138 hectares 2019.
June 2019
The total area of notified final felling in the whole country amounted to 23 191 hectares in June, which is a 19 per cent decrease compared to June last year and the lowest level in 8 years.
The largest decreases were in the regions South of Sweden (32 per cent) and South of Northern Sweden (30 per cent). In the region Northern Sweden, the area of notified final felling decreased by 18 per cent and in the region Central Sweden by 11 per cent. The reasons for the decrease could be both an adjustment to large areas notified for final felling earlier this year and to large volumes of timber stocked in the forest, at road side and at forest industries.
At the county level, the notified harvest area decreased in 19 of 21 counties compared to the corresponding month last year. In seven counties the area of notified final felling decreased with more than 30 per cent. The largest decreases were in Kalmar County by 46 per cent to 692 hectares, in Jönköping County by 44 per cent to 602 hectares and in Skåne County by 43 per cent to 344 hectares, which for these counties were the lowest notifications of final felling for the month in 8 years. In Uppsala County the notified area of final felling decreased by 41 per cent to 432 hectares. The area of notified final felling also notably decreased in Västernorrland County (34 per cent) to 1 790 hectares, which is the lowest recorded level for the month in 11 years.
Two counties, Södermanland and Gotland, have had a notable increase in the area of notified final felling (55 and 39 per cent respectively) compared to June 2018. The increase in Södermanland County could be judged to depend on large infestation of bark beetle which has followed the drought in 2018 and less rainfall so far in 2019.
Area of notified final felling so far 2019
Up to June this year 124 456 hectares have been reported for harvesting, which is 7 per cent more than the first six months of last year. So far in 2019, 146 094 hectares have been reported for harvesting, which is 7 per cent more than in the first seven months 2018.
Statistics refer to total notifications and applications for permission in productive forest land for final felling.
The survey is part of Official Statistics of Sweden.
All results are published in our statistical database.

My drug is increasing proliferation of gene of interest (GOI). I would like to demonstrate the effect of this drug at the transcriptional level.
I plan to:
1. pre-treat my cells with Actinomycin D alone at various time points
2. add my drug after pretreatment with actinomycin.
My question is for part 2, after pre-treatment with actinomycin, do I still add actinomycin with the drug or do I remove actinomycin D and just add my drug to the cells?
Ive never worked with actinomycin D before

Now that the election is over, there will be a renewed call for Governor Walker
to let a Casino open near the city of Kenosha since the out of State Tribe needs State permission to do so and many elected officials are screaming for it (Gee think Campaign donations made have been made? perhaps gifts given?? not like that has ever happened but wait
Former Kenosha County official sentenced to 2 years in prison
We get told the stories mny Jobs will be created folks will flock to the area the streets will be paved with Gold the good old pipe dreams get the public to buy into the idea to get a Casino up and running that the world will be saved!
Of course they have not worked out so well in other places
Another Atlantic City casino company files for bankruptcy
Supply companies with ties to bankrupt casinos face losses
But lets not talk about that
Nor let us talk about how some of the construction jobs may pay well as the buildings are going up but the vast number of jobs will be service type jobs many even paying minimum wage other games too will go down the TIF game the BID game and Good Old Boys will find ways to get money.
Our Mayor John Dickert likes the idea so I am thinking Marble will be needed right? Where will that come from?
IMHO we have Casinos galore do we need more? Do we need an out of State Tribe building one?
I think not.

What small and medium-sized businesses must do to survive
Small and medium-sized businesses can transform hard work into success by harnessing technology, investing in talent
Starting a business is probably the most exciting - and frightening - thing you will ever do.
It takes passion, dedication, commitment and persistence.
How then, can small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) channel and transform their hard work into success?
An International Data Corporation (IDC) report recently revealed that reducing costs, gaining operational efficiency, and improving productivity are the top business priorities for SMBs across the Asia-Pacific region in the coming year.
It is no surprise that SMBs have limited resources on top of these operational challenges, making it harder for them to stay ahead of external challenges and grow their business.
Industry competition is one of the biggest external challenges facing SMBs today.
Digital disruption has also forced many SMBs to rethink their business model.
At the heart of this challenge is also the end-customer's expectations. The consumer of today expects a seamless experience that is on demand, and it is getting harder to meet those expectations.
These are all external variables that can overwhelm SMB owners as they face a myriad of changes and disruption.
The advantage SMBs have is that they are agile.
SMBs may also face challenges attracting and retaining talent. Business owners need to think about how they design job roles, organise work and invest in training and development.
The annual Deloitte Millennial Survey revealed 76 per cent of millennials believe businesses have the power to make a difference.
This is a highly informed generation that wants to help the world be a better place. They want to work in organisations that have a clear purpose, invest in skills and career development, and impact society in a positive manner.
They are also looking towards "structured but flexible work", and SMBs that are serious about retaining talent cannot avoid having a mobile workforce.
Harnessing technology and putting people at the centre of change is an imperative.
To effect change, technology will be a differentiator in creating a more seamless customer experience for SMBs to stay ahead and to compete in the war for talent.
Keeping operational cost down and doing more with less is quite possibly the mantra to succeed, external factors aside. Financing could also be a challenge to some SMBs.
With limited human and financial resources, SMBs need their technology infrastructure to be easy to set up, flexible and scalable to their needs.
There are also grants to help SMBs adopt technology.
The right technology should serve as the foundation for the digital business and workforce, with tools to increase innovation, productivity and employee satisfaction - all directly impacting customer satisfaction.
Having a secure network also means an organisation is protected by a solution that can stop threats, gain insights, detect threats earlier and act faster.
Cyber criminals also target SMBs. SMBs are learning that this is important, and based on an IDC report, 84 per cent of SMBs across Asia-Pacific said they are focusing on building a secure IT environment.
Ensuring that technology is protected safeguards your and your customers' data.
Using technology to transform your business framework will be the start to future-proofing your business.

GDPR is coming – and it will affect us all
Category // Blog
Date Posted // April 6, 2018
Let me start with a simple question: what is significant about Friday May 25th this year?
Just three weeks until the World Cup? I suppose so. Ten months until Brexit? Yes. And maybe it will be the day (I'm writing this over Easter) when it finally stops raining…
More specifically May 25th is the day when GDPR arrives. What's GDPR? It stands for the General Data Protection Regulation, a piece of European legislation which comes into force in seven weeks' time and which will affect all our businesses. And yes, even though we are scheduled to leave the EU in March 2019, GDPR will be adopted as UK law.
GDPR will impact virtually every business in the UK. It will replace the 1998 Data Protection Act as the piece of legislation governing how personal data is used and stored in the UK. Essentially the EU wants to give people back control over their data: if you handle employee and/or customer data than you will need to comply with GDPR – and woe betide any companies who don't. GDPR will be enforced by fines for non-compliance, with industry experts predicting that the fines will far outstrip those currently imposed for breaches of the DPA.
GDPR – and its attendant publicity – is going to focus people's minds on privacy, and the question of data breaches.
Obviously, that is hugely in the news at the moment. Facebook has just seen $58bn (£41bn) wiped off its value over the Cambridge Analytica data breach – which must have made for an interesting conversation over Mr & Mrs Zuckerberg's dinner table…
- Good day at the office, dear?
- So-so. Lost $58bn. Pass the pizza, will you?
Well, let's hope they can still afford pizza, as there is news this morning that the Facebook data breach affected 87m people – far more than originally thought – with, apparently, just over one million of them in the UK.
You might glance at that and think it's just bad news for Facebook. Actually, it's bad news for nearly everyone – especially our clients and our candidates.
Because what a data breach like that does – especially with a company as high profile as Facebook – is make people wary of letting their data be used. The publicity around GDPR is only going to add to that and we will unquestionably see search engines like DuckDuckGo – that promise not to use your data – increase in popularity.
It has famously been said that "data is the new oil." The phrase was coined by Clive Humby, the man behind the Tesco Clubcard, in 2006 and to some extent it's right. Data has become the price we pay for using the internet: Google isn't free, we pay with our data.
GDPR is unquestionably going to make people more aware that they are 'paying with data' and they will become less willing to do so. But both our clients (the businesses we work with) and our candidates (the people for whom we find jobs) will need to understand and work with GDPR.
…And they will at least enjoy one silver lining from it immediately. GDPR will stop unscrupulous recruitment companies finding CVs on the internet and sending them out without the owner's permission, to companies who probably don't want them.
In many ways the arrival of GDPR reminds me of the introduction of ID as a necessary condition of employment. The ID needed to be a passport or a birth certificate and initially we had any number of people – it certainly went into the hundreds – refusing to supply their ID. It took them some time to realise that if they wanted us to help them find a job they simply had to give us their ID. Today, of course, no-one bats an eyelid at the request for a passport.
GDPR is going to be similar. Candidates are going to think. 'Well, if Facebook lose or misuse my data, how do I know you won't?' The short answer is because we work to the highest professional and ethical standards at Castle – but candidates will still be suspicious to begin with. Equally, clients are going to be wary of their new obligations and may (wrongly) opt to handle as little data as possible from potential employees.
But if clients want the best candidates, and candidates want the best jobs, then data will have to be shared after May 25th. If you help us, we can help you.
And yes, obviously it will all need to be done correctly and compliantly. That is why we will be happy to guide all our clients through the implications of GDPR and make sure you are fully compliant with the new legislation before May 25th. We are currently working with several of our clients on this and if you would like our help simply call Castle HR.

Infertility makes a really juicy plot point in TV shows and movies. And for good reason! Infertility is inherently dramatic. It's high-stakes. It's highly emotional. And it has the potential to have either a happy ending or a devastating one.
So it's no surprise that the theme of infertility and pregnancy loss has been a mainstay in pop culture for as long as there's been pop culture. Sometimes it's refreshing to see infertility represented in entertainment; I like how it sheds a light on this very real and upsetting experience. But other times it feels (at best) cheap and hollow. At worst, it feels exploitive and scientifically inaccurate.
Below are some of my favorite shows and stories that have showcased infertility, as well as how accurately or inaccurately the piece portrayed the process and experience.
The 90s TV classic, Friends, featured two different infertility plot points throughout its 10 season run. Its first foray into infertility was in Season 4, when Phoebe offers to serve as the gestational surrogate to her brother and his older wife. The highlight? Her singing to her embryos post-embryo transfer, "Are you in there little fetus? In 9 months will you come meet us? I will buy you some Adidas." The second (and more serious) storyline about infertility comes up in season 9 and deals with Monica and Chandler as they try to get pregnant and learn that the odds are biologically stacked against them. The two pursue adoption in season 10 and end up adopting twins. While the WAY they talk about infertility feels true to life, the details are purposefully vague, the timeline is severely truncated and the endings are all happy. But I guess that's what you get with cheesy 90s sitcoms. Accuracy: 3/5 stars
Sex and the City
Oh man, Sex and the City covers a variety of fertility-related issues, mostly through Charlotte Yorke. If you've been living under a rock the last 20 years, Charlotte is a perfectionist, preppy, Upper East Side woman who always gets what she wants…and is then forced to deal with impotence, infertility, adoption and miscarriage. The fact that the most optimistic, idealistic character is forced to face the darkness that is infertility and family building is incredibly impactful. I also found the portrayal of infertility and her blatant jealousy over Miranda's unplanned pregnancy (with Steve's one ball and her "lazy ovary") realistic. Infertility affects friendships just as much as it affects relationships. Sex and the City didn't just blow through infertility as a brief plot point; the show let it change Charlotte…just like it changes REAL people. Accuracy: 4/5 stars
Friends from College
The Netflix series, Friends from College, puts infertility front and center of this 10-episode series and is one of the most accurate portrayals of IVF I've seen. This is probably because one of the showrunners, Francesca Delbanco, actually went through IVF and *wanted* to showcase how painful, terrifying, stressful and annoying it is. In the show, the two main characters decide to undergo IVF and we see the physical burden of the injections, as well as the financial and emotional stress. It's refreshing to see IVF on television…the shots, the rigid timing, the fear, the high stakes…so many people go through it, yet very few people know what it looks like unless they've been through it. Accuracy: 5/5 stars
Baby Mama
Baby Mama is a comedy, plain and simple. It stars Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Steve Martin and Dax Shepard…so of course the emotional aspect of infertility is wildly glossed over. The movie centers around Tina Fey's workaholic character who decides to become a single mother by choice and hire a surrogate to carry her baby. Of course things go awry. The movie totally glosses over the complicated emotions of infertility and barely touches on the financial risk and burden. It's funny…but not really about infertility, I suppose. Accuracy: 1/5 stars
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
Season 3 of this musical comedy centers around Darryl, a gay man who wants a baby. So he goes through both the egg donor and surrogacy process and ohhhhhh boy are both inaccurately showcased. I tried to give this show the benefit of the doubt…but the way egg donors are reflected is laughable. The best part? The lyrics from a song called "My Sperm is Healthy" which goes "They get bottle service at every cervix, blowing eggs up like a pager." Accuracy: 2/5 stars
I know it's weird to call a film with a pregnant teenager on the movie poster an "infertility" story, but bear with me. Even though 16-year-old Juno, finds out she's unexpectedly pregnant in the first 5 minutes of the movie, the other protagonists (played by Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman) have been waiting for a baby for years. The couple has their shit together; they have a beautiful, clean home in the suburbs. Stable jobs. Fancy bottled juices. And they want a baby – which has taken a toll on their marriage. Even though it's mostly a comedy, this movie does a great job of showing how painful infertility can feel (especially when you and your partner aren't on the same page). Accuracy: 3/5 stars
Oh man, there are SO many more movies and shows that speak to infertility and pregnancy loss…there's Handmaid's Tale, Fuller House and The Gift. Raising Arizona. Game of Thrones. Even the Pixar movie, Up. There's no shortage of stories (both comedies and dramas alike) that place infertility front and center. And of course, there are some great documentaries that feature infertility as well, including Tig, One More Shot and Vegas Baby.
What are your favorite shows or movies that have mentioned infertility? Did they accurately reflect the medical process and emotions?

Proposals for hundreds of homes on edge of Norwich held up due to dispute over railway bridge
PUBLISHED: 09:32 13 July 2017 | UPDATED: 17:03 13 July 2017

Housing developments in Norfolk are being delayed because of a wrangle over the cost of building across the area's railways, it has been revealed.
Broadland Council's head of planning Phil Courtier told a meeting of the authority's planning committee that four to five planning applications across Norfolk are being held up because of negotiations with Network Rail about building on land the rail firm owns.
In Broadland, developers Lothbury Property Trust applied to make changes to their original plans to build 600 homes in Thorpe St Andrew and a new link road, which would connect Peachman Way to Plumstead Road East.
To complete the link road, a bridge would need to be built over the Norwich to Sheringham railway line.
As yet the developers have not been able to agree terms with Network Rail, with Adam Smith - director of Lothbury Investment, which owns Lothbury Property Trust - claiming the rail firm had demanded a "ransom figure" that was "in excess of seven figures".
Lothbury Property Trust urged councillors to push ahead with the plans by building 240 of the 600 homes and part of the link road.
However that was met with concern by members of the public and councillors, who rejected the changes on the grounds that the increase in traffic going under the Green Lane North bridge would be unsafe.
They also feared the link road would not be completed.
Mr Smith had argued it would make sense to start phase one of building the road while the remaining details were finalised.
"It is totally illogical that Lothbury would not complete the link road after all the money it has spent providing infrastructure for 600 homes," he added.
Asked how much it was asking for from the developer, a spokesman from Network Rail said: "We have to close the line and any bridge over the line would need to be compliant and over each weekend, the train operator would have to be compensated - so that's why it is so expensive.
"As a tax-payer funded organisation, we have a duty to spend that money wisely, getting the best deal possible for the public.
"We work with developers all across the country because it's absolutely vital they support this approach by helping pay for the infrastructure that supports their development."

Black pencil skirt three ways
The black pencil skirt is my go-to packing item for business trips. I change up my outfit from day-to-day by swaping out bright, fun scarves and different blouses. It saves room in my suitcase, and I know I'm prepared for everything from meetings to a dinner out. I'm excited to try your suggestion of pairing it w/ some of the dressy items from my closet. Thanks for the idea!
Thanks for the comment, Mary! Sounds like you've got it covered!
Yes, a lot of meetings/conferences have a gala or awards night, I find. Your black skirt could definitely do for that as well, if you wanted. oxk

NEW YORK (REUTERS) - Singer and actress Demi Lovato has been accused of copyright infringement by American indie rock band Sleigh Bells.
Alexis Krauss and Derek Miller of the Brooklyn-based band said in a lawsuit filed on Monday in California federal court that Stars, a bonus track on Lovato's 2015 hit album Confident, contains significant material taken from their 2010 song Infinity Guitars.
In documents filed in the United States District Court Central District of California, Sleigh Bells said the similarities between the two songs "transcend the realm of coincidence or shared generic material, and inform the very essence of the works".
In a tweet directed at the former Disney Channel star, now 24, dating back to November 2015, Sleigh Bells (@sleighbells) publicly addressed the issue.
"@ddlovato Demi Lovato flattered you guys sampled Infinity Guitars & Riot Rhythm for Stars: but we were not contacted," wrote the American musical duo. "Gotta clear those."
At that time, Stars producers Carl Falk and Rami Yacoub said in a statement that it was not the case and that Lovato was not involved with the production of the song.
The band are seeking an injunction against further use of Lovato's track and an unspecified amount of damages.
Lovato's representatives did not return requests for comment.

An elegant country resort
The Falconiere Relais, Restaurant and Spa is a charming residence in Tuscany, the story of a dream that came true in Cortona.
The story of this charming residence in Tuscany is closely linked to the Baracchi family, whose love for Tuscan land, and passion for cooking and hospitality have inspired and guided Silvia and Riccardo Baracchi from the very beginning. The pair transformed the 17th century family villa in a haven of hospitality. In 1988, in the farm where Ricciardo spent his days surrounded by rural life, a careful and clever restructuring process began, lasting until 1989.
The project has come to fruition, and the family farm is now a charming residence that has been part of the Relais & Chateaux since 1997.
Il Falconiere's philosophy is encapsulated in the choice of the banner "knowing hunting and knowing the old". A unique combination in the heart of Tuscany where you can enjoy precious moments surrounded by the sounds and fragrances of this ancient land. Falconiere is a charming wine resort in Tuscany with all the amenities of a 5 star hotel: 23 rooms and suites, a Michelin-starred restaurant, outdoor swimming pools and an exclusive SPA: a small enchanted universe, a charming Tuscany residence suspended in time, which has kept to a simple dream from which a wonderful story was born.
The starred restaurant Il Falconiere boasts an elegant lounge and beautiful panoramic terrace overlooking Cortona and the surrounding countryside. High quality ingredients and seasonal and local produce are the principles behind the menu, which comes accompanied by a long wine list, including excellent Baracchi labels.

Good afternoon tennis fans, and as we settle down for two wonderful weeks of Wimbledon, allow me to share one of my most recent projects with you. Of course, if you'd like to enjoy some strawberries and cream whilst you're watching, then please go and take a look at what's in your fridge, and the very best of luck to you.
Recently I was contacted by a Chinese TV channel broadcasting here in the UK who were looking to revoice a documentary. Having already worked with broadcasters in China, it was a delight to receive a request from a station broadcasting to the Chinese community, but from studios in West London.
Some Chinese documentaries can be what we refer to as "wall to wall", in that there is a little time to breath in order to get very wordy sentences into very tight timelines. Fortunately, the pace of this piece was a lot more relaxed and the client actually wanted to keep the level of inflection very light. It's a tricky style for someone who is as naturally animated as I am, but they are pleased with the result and would like to speak with me about voicing some more programmes for them too, so it's good news all round.
Propeller TV is on Channel 189 on Sky and I'm pleased to say that they also have their own YouTube channel, which means I can share the documentary with you here:

Our family moves. A LOT. Friends come and go in our lives. A LOT. Changes happen. A LOT.
We have several strategies that help our family navigate the changes. If you move as much as we do, maybe they'll help you. Or if you've never moved, but your kids are anticipating a change (maybe a school year with a new teacher or new classmates) maybe these strategies will help.
The book Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds by Dave Pollock and Ruth Van Reken gave me words that helped us solidify our process. The authors devoted a chapter to leaving well. They recommended building a RAFT as a process of saying goodbye. RAFT stands for
Reconciliation | Affirmation | Farewell | Think Destination.
Reconciliation. Right before this last move one of my kids was hurt by a close friend. "Mom he was mean to me" was hard for me to hear. But, keeping reconciliation in mind, I said, "sometimes when we are getting ready to leave it makes our friends sad, and when they are sad they can be mean. Forgive him." They are still young so it's easy to forget and move on. Even so, reconciliation is a very important step in leaving well. Being at peace with ourselves, our friends and family, and the place we are leaving is important. I don't want my memories to be of how grumpy I felt in the hot weather, or how annoying the traffic was, or how irritating a person was…I want to be at peace.
Affirmation. I am a third culture kid who has a hard time opening myself up. Sure, I can have a million friends, but rarely will I have one that goes deep. Usually when it comes close to time to say goodbye, I insulate myself. I decided years upon years ago that I wouldn't cry, and so I don't. It's hard to change these long held patterns, but I try to dive in to relationships even if I know that it will only be for a short time. I try to encourage my kids to let their friends and family know how much they mean to them before they leave. Each of us attempts to acknowledge our special friends, and the wonderful experiences that happened to us while we were with them.
Farewell. Last time we left I had the boys give small gifts and goodbye letters to each of their friends when we said farewell. But, this time I had a hard time getting anything together. We were blessed, though, by special friends who created photo albums, painted pictures, and helped stuff the boys backpacks with fun things.
Think Destination. Before we leave, we talk about the benefits (and shortcomings) of the place we are leaving. We also talk about the place we will be going. This conversation often continues for weeks, even after we have arrived. I often find myself saying "you know you don't have to pick one place over the other. Both have good things." Just yesterday Grey said, "There are positives and negatives about here and about America. Here we don't have to wear seat belts, but it is hot and there is a lot of trash. In America there are lots of toys, even in all of the stores, but we have to wear seat belts."
Change is a hard part of our life. The life is still worth it though. We are doing what we feel called to do. Not only that, but the boys get to experience the wide wonderful world.

Power corporation yet to realise consumer dues of over Rs 350 cr
SHILLONG: The State Government, for the second time in five years, has decided to bail Meghalaya Energy Corporation Limited (MeECL) out of the present crisis of huge outstanding amount that it owes to NEEPCO.
The State Cabinet on Friday decided to be the guarantor for MeECL for loan from Power Finance Corporation (PFC) to clear the Rs 469.32-crore dues to NEEPCO, including the Rs 98.44 crore as surcharge. The amount was calculated keeping in mind that NEEPCO would waive off 60 per cent of the total surcharge.
Speaking to media persons after the Cabinet meeting, Chief Minister Mukul Sangma said the Cabinet has also decided to constitute a team comprising finance and power department officials that will prepare modalities for better functioning of MeECL.
Slamming MeECL over its failure to realise the outstanding bill to the tune of over Rs 350 crore from consumers, Sangma asked the power corporation to implement an effective and smarter system of realising the dues.
The MeECL was also asked to analyse the gap between its revenue and expenditure and address the problem of negative balance of around Rs 300 crore.
Reacting to a query about the pending electricity bills of industries in the State, Sangma said a few cases have been challenged in court and they are under litigation. "There is no more room for MeECL to have a laidback attitude to realising outstanding dues from industries. The realisation was better and regular in the past," he added.
Apart from the Rs 469.32 crore to NEEPCO as per the last quarter, MECL also has to pay Rs 30.57 crore to NHPC, Rs 44.08 crore to NTPC, Rs 39.71 crore to other sources and Rs 36.44 crore to Power Grid and the total outstanding amount comes to Rs 767 crore.
In 2011, the State Cabinet had agreed to stand guarantor for Rs 50-crore loan for the cash-strapped MeECL to repay an earlier loan taken from the Indian Overseas Bank (IOB).
Later, in 2013, the power company had again asked the State Government to act as its counter guarantor for a Rs 1,400-crore loan which the Corporation plans to take from different financial institutions as capital for various projects.

This Is What It Looks Like A Split-Second Before A Charging College Football Player Snaps Your Leg
Photographer Patrick Parton broke his leg when he was bowled over by Florida quarterback Jeff Driskel immediately after this photo was taken.
Patrick Parton is a freelance photographer who was covering the University of Tennessee-Florida game September 15th, but this photo landed him in the hospital with a broken tibia and fibula. Tennessee linebacker A.J. Johnson, who weighs in at a svelte 240 pounds, knocked Flordia quarterback Jeff Driskel out of bounds -- and right into Parton. The players just hopped up and ran back on to the field, but eventually a Florida cheerleader coach saw Parton was in obvious pain and came over to help.
Parton tells BuzzFeed he plans to return to the sidelines as soon as he heals.

Why Digital Marketing?
Many would say Digital Marketing is the present and the future; they might be right about that, most probably. Generally, it is accepted that the future of the business is E-commerce and the fact that every physical business attribute can be integrated through online. Everything is just possible.
Most of the retailers are investing a lot and maintaining their e-commerce websites believing that there is really a huge following on the said platform. They are right about that.
While most of us are engaged into social media and having the access to the internet connection is probably one of the important things we have on a daily basis, the market is rich with the online communities that are willing to patronize and speak for the company or the brand.
Some companies might be puzzled why invest and choose Digital Marketing over the traditional ones; they have their answer pretty much obviously.
Since the integration and the innovation of technology took place, Digital Marketing is one of the contending platforms to grown and strengthens a business. The market is just around the corner and without further puzzles and hassles, businesses can easily determine the market's behaviour, their wants, needs, demands and everything that they will delight them as a consumer, another institution or company or just an individual.
Digital Marketing sees every movement of the online market and studies how behaviour in online socializing affects them and their buying attitude. Businesses can easily capture their attention by squeezing more on the creative side that will best serve the online community to persuade them to support the businesses' endeavours.
Furthermore, Digital Marketing is more affordable than the traditional marketing strategies depending on the extent of campaign you are going to execute. Labor or manpower is not too much of an issue because Digital Marketing campaigns are easier to execute and does not require too much of physical leg works; but of course, much on the understanding and analyzing part of the business.
Digital Marketing is the present and the future and you already know why.

ha ha! You won't believe this, but I was in Princeton Review with a chick that said that's why she was going to law school. For me, an increased standard of living is part of it, but definitely not the driving force.
Find a posting somewhere that talks about it, and I'll be happy to link it!

Hey, guys, Dr. Axe here, doctor of natural
medicine and founder of draxe.com.
In this video I'll be going over the coconut
oil benefits, coconut oil uses, and how coconut
oil can be used as medicine on a daily basis.
And coconut oil has really been used especially
in the tropics for thousands of years for
hydration, if you're talking about coconut
water, for the cooking oil, for the meat,
often used in smoothies today.
And actually, historically it was used, it
was actually called the tree of life because
coconuts fed so many people, you know, fat
is high in calories which can actually be
good for giving people energy, quality energy,
which we'll talk about more in a minute.
But here are some fun facts and some things
you've got to know about coconut oil before
we jump into benefits here.
Number one, check this out, over 1,500 medical
studies published in prestigious journals
have found that coconut oil is beneficial
for your health.
Now, in the past, sometimes it was controversial
because coconut oil contains saturated fat,
but the thing you got to know is there's good
types of fat and there's bad types of fat.
The type of saturated fat that's found in
coconut oil is often referred to as MCFAs
of MCTs, that's medium-chain triglycerides
or medium-chain fatty acids.
And these medium-chain fats are were actually
great for your body to burn as energy and
it's easier to digest.
So that's one of the big benefits here of
coconut oil.
It becomes very easy to digest.
Another big benefit is it's not readily stored
as fat.
So listen, when you're consuming other forms
of fat you're much more likely to store them
as body fat.
So again, if you're a person that's trying
to lose weight, you've got an issue like diabetes.
You want to keep your blood sugar levels balanced
or just in general, not gaining any type of
body fat, this is the ideal fat in oil for
you to use.
Also, here's the great thing about it, it's
anti-microbial and anti-fungal.
You know, a lot of times today, people get
Candida built up in the body or have different
types of fungal or bacterial infections.
Again, coconut oil, anti-bacterial, in fact.
One of the unique properties of coconut milk
in those medium-chain fatty acids is one of
those fats that's called lauric acid.
Lauric acid, actually, has some of the same
properties as actually human breast milk and
that it's anti-microbial.
So what people have done is sometimes kind
of put it not in the eye but around the eye
or on different types of fungal infections
to help fight fungus.
Another unique thing about coconut oil is
it's smaller in size compared to other oils.
This is why it's one of the better oils to
use as a moisturizer on your skin, so great
benefits there.
And here's the other big thing, it's processed
by the liver which means that it is immediately
converted to energy rather into body fats.
So again, most fats your body has to go through
a 19-step process to break it down and turn
it into energy, your body only has to go through
a three-step process to use coconut oil for
But now, let's dive right in and talk about
coconut oil and how you can use this to fight
chronic disease.
And let me say this as well, when I get into
coconut oil here I want to go over the type
of coconut oil you should be buying.
When you're buying coconut oil you want to
buy nonrefined extra virgin olive oil that
is certified organic, that's the type of coconut
oil you want to be buying.
First thing here, it fights Alzheimer.
Alzheimer's disease is actually been quoted
as being type 3 diabetes oftentimes it's related
to insulin issues.
So here's the thing, going on something called
the coconut ketogenic diet can help fight
In fact, a medical doctor in Florida, a female
medical doctor took care of her husband who
had Alzheimer's and she said, by supplementing
with coconut oil and a ketogenic diet it helped
him overcome Alzheimer's naturally.
Think about that, absolutely amazing what
coconut oil in a high fat diet can do for
the body.
Number two, can lower blood pressure.
Here's the truth, most people are getting
too many carbohydrates and sugars in their
diet not near enough fat.
Excess sugars and carbohydrates will cause
insulin spikes and can cause inflammation,
consuming more fat like coconut oil can actually
keep blood sugar and blood pressure levels
balanced on a daily basis.
Number three, coconut oil can fight inflammation.
You know, there are three types of fats you
want to get more of in your diet.
Number one, medium-chain fatty acids like
you're going to find in coconut oil.
Number two, Omega 3 fatty acids, you'll find
in things like wild caught salmon and chia
And then also you want to get mono unsaturated
fats that are found in things like avocados
and almonds.
Those are the type of fats you want to be
getting in.
All of those have anti-inflammatory properties.
Number four, cancer-fighting potential.
We know these compounds, lauric acid, capric
acid, and caprylic acid specifically fight
off Candida in the body and fungal overgrowth.
In fact, some doctors believed that cancer
is in part acts as a fungus in the body and
how it can spread and replicate in your system.
But, again, overall, fighting cancer, coconut
oil has a potential to especially if you're
following something that's more of a coconut
ketogenic diet and again, getting plenty of
green, leafy vegetables in your diet, and
herbs like turmeric on a daily basis.
Number five, can help boost the immune system.
This is in part because of how it bounces
out microbes in the body.
You know, the health of your microbiome, we
know, is related to every area of your body.
Hippocrates was quoted thousands of years
ago saying all disease begins in the gut.
Well, 75% of your immune system is located
in your gut, in your digestive tract.
Coconut oil, one of my top five foods along
with bone broth that helps boost your immune
system and supports digestive health.
Number six here, big benefit here of organic
coconut oil is memory and brain function.
And, in fact, you've heard me referenced the
ketogenic diet several times at this point,
coconut oil is a key component of that.
And when you're consuming coconut oil or in
ketosis your body actually starts producing
and using something called ketone bodies and
these ketone bodies can actually be good for
the brain and help heal the brain.
So, again, going on a ketogenic diet in coconut
oil is good for brain function as is using
certain essential oils like Rosemary oil.
Number seven here, energy and endurance.
Now, I, myself have a history of doing triathlons
as do family members and some of the professional
athletes I've worked with, and whether you're
a swimmer, a runner, a triathlete, or you
just do sports on a regular basis, or maybe
a CrossFit athlete you want to improve your
Now, your body, when you're doing especially
steady state cardio, your body is sometimes
gets in a fat burning zone where you actually
want to make it easy for your body to burn
fat for fuel, coconut oil is the ideal oil
and fat for athletes because it's the type
of fat with a medium-chain fats that your
body can use the fastest as fuel.
I've seen actually a lot of triathletes do
mixtures of like coconut oil, honey, a little
bit of sea salt, actually, as their meal replacements.
Cyclists are doing this when they're going
on long distance rides, so it's great for
energy and endurance especially because it
helps blood sugar levels.
Number eight, again, I talked about this earlier,
improves digestion.
You know, for a lot of people, we're consuming
foods that can cause bad bacteria and Candida
to build up in our guts.
You know, an example of this is excess sugar
consumption, hydrogenated oils that are genetically
All of those things cause inflammation.
If you want to heal your gut you've got to
follow an anti-inflammatory diet.
Key components of that, bone broth, coconut
oil, and then get some good herbs in your
diet like licorice root and ginger root and
peppermint, all of those things can help improve
your digestive function.
Number nine, eases gallbladder disease.
Now, here's something you need to know.
If you or someone you know has had their gallbladder
removed or has fat digestive issues or gallbladder
issues, even if somebody starts to get skin
issues really get red lumps on their skin
like rosacea that's caused from improper fat
And if you're not digesting fats properly
or have had your gallbladder removed or have
liver disease, coconut oil is the ideal oil
because, again, it's so easy for your body
to breakdown versus other fats even things
like olive oil, it's more work for your body,
coconut oil is a better choice for those with
gallbladder and liver issues.
Improves skin health, again, it's a great
natural hydrator of the skin.
You know, I love making DIY recipes with coconut
oil, mixing coconut oil with lavender essential
oil, using that to moisturize the skin, or
coconut oil, manuka honey, and tea tree oil,
rubbing that on the skin and washing it off
for acne, a great natural remedy.
Another great benefit of coconut oil it's
my absolute favorite to do coconut oil pulling.
You know, oil pulling has been shown to fight
gum disease.
A lot of people don't know this, but the health
of your mouth actually has been correlated
with heart disease and the health of your
entire body.
So if you want to fight cavities, if you want
to reduce gingivitis and gum disease, swish
around coconut oil in your mouth for 5 to
20 minutes.
The ideal way to do this is, hey, take about
one teaspoon or tablespoonful, swish around
in your mouth when you're in the shower, while
you're taking a shower, once you get out,
you know, spit it out, typically not in the
sink, you're typically want to put it in the
garbage because you don't want to clog up
your sink.
But oil pulling has been used for thousands
of years in Ayurvedic medicine to benefit
oral health and it's even more beneficial
than flossing for fighting gum disease.
It prevents osteoporosis.
Again, the beneficial fats can actually help
with nutrient absorption of fat soluble vitamins
like Vitamin D and Vitamin K2.
So again, we want to absorb more of these
coconut oil can help fat soluble vitamin absorption.
Number 13, improves type II diabetes.
Again, the key of that is balancing insulin.
Now, here's my secret, if you have diabetes
or in general, if you want to lose weight
or stay younger longer, here's the things
you want in every meal.
You want to reduce sugar and carb consumption.
You want to consume fat, fiber, and protein.
Those three things in every meal, and then
some antioxidants like some herbs.
You're doing that every meal those blood sugar
levels are going to be balanced, you're going
to see some great results in diabetes quickly.
Number 14, weight loss.
Coconut oil for weight loss is really one
of the secret ingredients there.
Again, a ketogenic diet or a diet that's rich
in plants and wild meats, a great way to lose
weight fast.
I'd say for weight loss, a tablespoon a day,
especially, using it as your main cooking
oil or in smoothies the best way to get more
coconut oil.
And here are some ways you can use coconut
oil starting right now.
Number one, healthy popcorn.
Buy some non-GMO certified organic popcorn.
Cook it up in a pot like they used to, not
the microwave, on a stove top and pour on
some coconut oil and some Himalayan sea salt,
absolutely delicious.
Number two, use it as your coffee creamer.
Make what I called keto coffee.
Coffee, some coconut oil, you can also add
in some ghee or grass-fed butter, delicious
in coffee.
Smoothie as a nutrient booster.
You know, I love doing a smoothie with berries.
Bone broth protein powder in coconut oil makes
the perfect morning smoothie that really sustains
you and gives you energy throughout the day.
Skin moisturizer, again, mixing with essential
oils such a geranium and lavender can help
hydrate the skin.
Natural makeup remove.
Coconut oil pulling as we mentioned.
Now, when I do oil pulling, here's my secret.
I use a teaspoon of coconut oil and then I
put several drops of essential oils like myrrh
or clover peppermint in as part of my oil
pulling routine.
A cellulite solution.
Mixing coconut oil with grapefruit essential
oil rubbing it on your skin rigorously or
in circle motions and right up and down on
an area where you have cellulite, for two
minutes, can be effective at reducing the
appearance of cellulite.
Also great for stretch marks.
So stretch marks, you'll want to mix either
coconut oil with juniper oil.
And another good one to do it with is frankincense
oil as well.
So again, some good oils to do it there for
stretch marks.
And also, hey, great to remove gum from your
hair if you have kids and that happens, some
good things to do.
So remember, look at all of the benefits here
of coconut oil, Alzheimer's disease, blood
pressure, inflammation, cancer, immune system
health, brain function, endurance, digestion,
gallbladder disease, skin health, oral health,
osteoporosis, type II diabetes, and weight
loss, there's no reason why you shouldn't
be getting coconut oil in your diet right
Again, when buying coconut oil make sure it's
certified organic and it's extra virgin coconut
oil that's not refined.
You want the real stuff, the good stuff that's
not processed.
Again, it's great for cooking.
It's great for DIY recipes.
Switch out your other cooking oil, use coconut
oil instead throughout the day.

|Web conference call is in its infancy and many people aren't conscious of its multifarious request. Originally, net conference call was used as an conference call and was limited to demonstration calls. Stay movie conferencing became possible with the arrival of broadband. The combination of several features of computers, Internet and software has changed net conference call to the level of face-to-face meeting.
|The greatest benefit that web conference calling has over offline conference calls is that it offers real time interaction with several people. When executed properly it's the same as having a conversation within your meeting area. Unlike most off-line conference calls, in internet conference call the people engaged in conversation could share and exchange ideas by demonstrating it on the whiteboard. This becomes very convenient in cases where only images can plainly describe the theory. Because this is done instantly with the support of music, the result it has is significant and can not be matched by traditional conference calls [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1n7r1YPNno|tell us what you think]] .
|Net conference calling can be an ideal conference call service for business since it gives the chance to discuss problems and put them to vote and fix the matter readily available. This means that by sitting in your workplace in Manhattan through the convention call you can talk with your subordinates in just about any element of the world and discuss the business strategies. There is no limit to the number of people who is able to take part in the electronic web conference. Traditional conference call gets the limit of number and when you can find over three places it throws up many difficulties. The amount of area is never a problem in web conference calling.
|Conference call through web has specific limitations like web camera location. Additionally it requires large level of concentration in the members. All of the limitations related to net conference call could be easily resolved. Many business institutions today prefer net conference call over offline conference call because it saves money, time and energy.
