What is Sleep Apnea?
Do you constantly feel drained of your energy during the day? Does your sleep partner complain that your snoring is so disruptive to their sleep that they have to go into another room? Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder that occurs when a person's breathing pattern repeatedly stops and starts throughout the night.
There are three different forms of sleep apnea– obstructive, central, and complex– however, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is the most common form where the throat muscles relax during sleep and create an obstruction that blocks the breathing airway.
The brain quickly recognizes your inability to breathe and briefly awakens you so you can return to a normal breathing pattern. This pattern may occur up to 30 times or more every hour throughout the night, preventing you from achieving a substantial night's sleep.
Signs of Sleep Apnea
Oftentimes, the arousal from a sleep apnea episode is so brief that many sufferers don't even remember it and aren't even aware of their condition at all. Most patients only seek to diagnose their sleep apnea because their sleep partner is worried about their reoccurring gasping for air or raucous snoring.
Along with interrupted breathing at night and snoring, other common symptoms to look out for include:
- Irritability and mood swings
- Lack of energy and motivation
- Choking during sleep
- Impaired memory
- Insomnia
- Frequent urination at night
Other oral symptoms of sleep apnea that you may notice and will need to see Dr. Sheehan for include:
- Tongue thrusting or scalloped tongue
- Grinding or clenching of the teeth
- Worn down teeth
- Acid erosion of the teeth
- Large tonsils or an elongated uvula
- Mandibular Tori
- TMD or myofascial pain
Potential Health Risks
Sleep apnea is found most common in older patients and males. However, it doesn't only affect them. When left untreated, OSA can negatively impact your overall health and has been linked to increasing the risk of various diseases or health conditions.
These potential health complications include:
- Heart disease
- Strokes
- Irregular heartbeats
- Type 2 diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Depression
- Kidney disease
- Erectile dysfunction
- Obesity
- Hypothyroidism
- High cholesterol
How to Diagnose Your Sleep Apnea
The only way to properly identify your sleep disorder is by receiving an official diagnosis with a sleep study provided by a local physician. You can also visit us at Oakland Family Dental and we'll make sure you get the diagnosis and treatment you need.
Dr. Sheehan may be the first to recognize signs of your sleep apnea and she can provide you with a proper sleep screening. If we think you're at high risk of having sleep apnea, we'll advise you to have a sleep test done by a board-certified sleep doctor.
We'll work closely with your medical team to get you the treatment you need, so contact Dr. Sheehan today to get started. She can also discuss with you the various financial options that will help cover your treatment.
CPAP Alternatives
A continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) mask is typically the first prescribed treatment for patients once they've been diagnosed with sleep apnea. Although highly-effective for many, as many as four in five people don't use their machine for the required amount of time or completely stop using their CPAP.
Many complain the mask is bulky, noisy, claustrophobic, and restricting to their sleep. Without the use of an effective treatment, the risks can be life-threatening. Luckily, CPAP isn't the only option. If you only use this treatment method occasionally or don't use it at all, Dr. Sheehan offers comfortable, effective alternatives to CPAP.
We can help you relieve your snoring and sleep apnea with these successful treatments and techniques:
- Oral Appliance: Similar to a sports mouthguard, an oral appliance is worn at night to move your jaw forward and clear any obstruction that's interrupting your breathing. Made for patients with mild-to-moderate sleep apnea, oral appliances are small, convenient, easy-to-use, customized for your comfort, silent, and portable.
- Lifestyle Changes: A common risk factor associated with sleep apnea is being overweight. Working out and maintaining a healthy diet can help you lose weight and diminish symptoms. Also, quitting smoking and decreasing your alcohol intake can improve your symptoms.
- Positional Therapy: Training yourself to sleep on your side, as opposed to your back, can also help alleviate your snoring and sleep apnea. Try the tennis-ball technique, where you strap a ball to your back, so whenever you try to sleep on your back, it will encourage you to move to your side.
- Throat Exercises: Practicing various throat exercises can help stretch and tone your muscles along the airway, making it more difficult for your throat to close while you sleep.
- Surgery: There are a number of surgeries available for more severe cases of sleep apnea. Some include nasal surgery to correct a deviated septum or maxillomandibular advancement surgery, which corrects throat obstructions that contribute to sleep apnea.

You may have noticed it's been a hot summer so far. June temperatures were above average across the world, and both NASA and NOAA ranked the month among the top five warmest since record keeping began in the late 1800s.
Not surprisingly, snow extent in the Northern Hemisphere was at its third-lowest on record by June. But what makes the current paltry snow cover more significant is the fact that, just a few months ago, the Northern Hemisphere was unusually snowy — April 2013 had the ninth-highest snow extent since 1967. A month later, half that snow had melted away. The Washington Post reports:
"This is likely one of the most rapid shifts in near opposite extremes on record, if not the largest from April to May," said climatologist David Robinson, who runs Rutgers University Global Snow Lab.

Lessons From Two Recent Power Cuts
This is the first in a series of articles about how to deal with a "first world problem" – how to respond when/if you lose power.
Our lives have become so dependent on electricity, and most of us work on an assumption that the power will always be there when we flip a switch.
Happily that assumption is seldom tested, but unhappily, when it is tested, and the power is out, we can find ourselves ill-prepared and inconvenienced.
This article series will help minimize your problems when your next power cut occurs.
Read More in the Rest of our Series on Solving Power Cut Problems.
Articles still to be published
- Generators
- UPS units
- External Batteries
- Your Car Can Help
- Solar Power
Judging the Extent of Your Needs
You'll get to know, over time, how reliable your power is. Are there windstorms or other occasional/seasonal issues that see you losing power, and if so, are outages typically brief or sometimes do they run for an extended period of time?
Most of us can manage a brief power outage with the only problem being how patient we are. But as the minutes stretch into hours, and into days or even weeks, more than patience is required. The adage PPPPPPP applies. Proper prior planning prevents piss poor performance.
This article series helps you with the proper prior planning.
I'm writing it after suffering two power cuts in the last couple of weeks. One as a result of a car knocking down a pole, and the other explained vaguely as "equipment failure".
I discovered, when responding to the first one, that my generator needs to be stripped and cleaned. I fear some old fuel has clogged up a fuel line or something, and it is overdue for an oil change too. Because the first cut was during the day, I simply packed up my computer gear and went to the local library and happily worked there until the power was restored, making a mental note to do some work on the generator soonish but not urgently.
Alas, a punishment for my lackadaisical response to my failed generator arrived swiftly. A second power cut came hard on the heels of the first, and I'd not yet had a chance to repair the generator. This cut was at 6pm on a Sunday, the library was closed, and as the daylight faded, and the ETA for return of power extended out every time I checked, I started to wonder what to do in the dark. The power – originally promised to be restored by 8.30pm, finally came on again just before 2am.
More to the point, if you had an extended power cut overnight, what would you do?
As it was, I enjoyed watching an HD movie in a not-dark room, read a book for a while, and eventually went to bed. Could you do the same?
Identify and Classify Your Power Needs
The first part of ensuring that your answer to this question will be yes, is to inventory the essential things that need power during an outage and then understand how you can continue to power them. There'll be a mix of "must have", "would be nice to have" and "can live without" entries on that list.
For each item identified, you should make a note of its power requirements – both the watts it consumes, and also its "duty cycle" – is it on all the time (like a light) or just some of the time (like a fridge/freezer compressor).
There will also be some seasonal changes (heating/cooling) and some things that are not needed for a short outage (fridge/freezer) or which are not needed during the day (lighting).
You further should categorize items that you can not have unpowered for any period of time, those you will need at some time within about 4 – 8 hours, and those you won't need for a day or two or more.
Find Your Hidden Power Needs Too
Be sure to include "hidden" things that you might take for granted or not realize need power. For example, do you have an electric or gas hot water supply? If it is gas, does it use an electronic ignition (which means you need power) or a pilot light (which makes it fully independent)? And keep in mind that gas fired central heating will almost certainly need electricity for the fan/blower system, and probably for electronic ignition and circuit controls and thermostats, too.
Do you have a water pump or a septic system pump?
Also keep in mind that if you wish to have internet or phone or cable service, there may be things you're not aware of that also need power. We've fiber and there's an external unit on the outside and inside of our house that needs power as well as, of course, a router inside the house; if you have cable, there'll be a cable box that needs to be powered, probably in addition to a router, too.
We suggest doing this in a formal manner, perhaps on a spreadsheet so you can quickly calculate total wattages and shift things around into various different what-if type scenarios.
We've prepared a possible spreadsheet that helps do some of this automatically for you, as you can see from the image above. The image excerpt from the spreadsheet probably gives you some ideas about how to do this yourself, too.
We also provide this spreadsheet, in Excel and PDF formats, to our kind and generous Travel Insider Supporters. If you'd like to access this, and be able to more confidently and conveniently do an emergency power survey to plan and prepare for a power outage, please consider joining us as a Supporter too. Instant access to this and plenty of other premium content is granted as soon as you've joined.

[membership level="2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14″]
Special Supporter Only Content
Thank you for your kind and generous support. We hope you find this extra section helpful.
Here is a link to the Excel spreadsheet and a printed out PDF of the spreadsheet.
The "magic" in the sheet is not only the discipline of getting you to work through your home and identify what you have that needs power, and how pressing the power need is for each item, but also the way you can use it to help you then create a set of layers of solutions for your power needs.
At line 105 you'll see a box in which you can list up to ten different emergency power sources. You don't need to create all ten, and most of us will only come up with a few on the list. But go through your list of power needs and then assign each one to one of your solutions, so you can see how much power each solution will need.
In our case, we have several UPS units, we have external batteries to use to charge USB type electronics, we have a generator, and we have some solar panels. We could split the generator into two halves, so that if for example, you've a fridge, freezer, stove and oven, a/c unit, and other units that use large amounts of power, but only for intermittent periods, you could switch between using one combination of units up to the generator max, then turn them off and switch over to another combination of units during their duty cycle, and back again. That's not as convenient as having a larger generator (or two small ones) but it is more affordable. We discuss this in the section on generators that we'll be writing subsequently.
Note also that there are two different measures for power needs. The first is how much power you need when they are running – how many Watts or Kilowatts of power. The second measure is for how long you'll need that power.
With a generator, and assuming sufficient fuel to run it, there isn't much concern for how long you'll need the power. We suggest you keep a legal amount of fuel on hand for say a 12 hour outage – smaller generators use as little as 1/10th of a gallon an hour, so a 5 gallon tank of gas is probably going to be sufficient for small and medium generators.
But for things like batteries, the power they store is limited of course, and once it has been used up, it has gone until you can somehow recharge them.
We discuss this further in the appropriate sections of the additional articles in this series.
Is there anything more you'd like us to add or explain on this spreadsheet? Let me know if there is, and, as always, thanks for your support.
We now return to the main part of this article.
Our Example
In our case, for an overnight outage, we identified
Must Have
- Light to see by
- Cell Phone
Would be Nice to Have
- Internet
- Computers and Screens
- Light to read by
- Entertainment
Can Live Without
- Heating/Cooling (we're in mild Seattle, never too hot, never too cold)
- Cooking (We have a gas stove-top so a box of matches enables us to still use the burners on that if necessary)
- Fridge/Freezer (but don't open the door, the temperature seems to rise 1 1/2 – 2°F/hour)
- Landline Phones
- Hopefully Everything Else
Now that you've identified what you need to provide power to, the next step is how to provide the power needed.
There are five main ways to plan for power outages.
Well – there's a sixth – candles, warm blankets, cold showers, and not much else – but you don't need to read this article if that's your strategy! There's also a very grim seventh strategy – evacuation – and that's something that has to be kept in mind when really severe outages happen.
Future articles in this series will look at each of these power sources/solutions.

Ten juniors and seniors at Cushing Academy are using their artistic gifts to gain experience in the art world in New York City while enabling disadvantaged American Indian youths to pursue their creative talents.
On Sept. 5, the student artists from Cushing Academy�s Emily Fisher Landau Center for the Visual Arts program will welcome guests to the opening of their benefit show and sale at the prestigious Susan Sheehan Gallery in New York, said Robert F. Johnson, chairman of the Visual Arts program.
This will be the first art show for the young artists from Cushing, a co-educational, college preparatory boarding school for students in grades 9 through 12, he said.
�They are learning everything there is to learn about having a show,� Mr. Johnson said. �They will be divided into groups and decide where everything will be placed, be in charge of sales, lighting, (even) paint the walls if needed. That is all usually done by the gallery. They will learn the whole process of having a show in New York City.�
The exhibit, titled Ten Young Artists, will feature paintings, metal-smithed pieces, sculptures, fused glass, ceramics and photographs.
The 70 pieces displayed will be for sale, and 40 percent of the proceeds will be donated to Fine Arts for Children & Teens. FACT, based in Santa Fe, N.M., is a nonprofit organization that provides art programs for disadvantaged American Indian youths, Mr. Johnson said. The gallery is also waiving its fee for the exhibit, he said.
Mr. Johnson, 60, started teaching in Cushing�s art program 35 years ago, he said, and built it up from a very small program. It is now one of the most highly respected visual arts programs in secondary education, with a state-of-the-art visual arts center.
He said the show will be an incredible opportunity for the students. He is not aware of any other secondary school that has had its students� work exhibited in New York. �I think it will be an eye-opener for our students,� he said. �Most people do not realize how much work is involved. These kids are going to know because they are going to actually do it. It is an experience you can only have by doing it. You can�t pick it up in a book. I can tell them, but it is not like actually doing it.�
The Cushing Academy art program held its first student art exhibit at a gallery in Santa Fe last year, Mr. Johnson said, but picked 10 different students to participate this year.
He also takes his students to New Mexico every summer to connect with American Indian art students at other schools and to watch artists on different pueblos, he said.
William S. Prindle, director of marketing and communications at Cushing Academy, said that since at least 1980, the school has had connections with American Indian communities, particularly the Navajo.
�We have had teachers who taught Native American students in New Mexico and later came to Cushing and brought that connection with them,� he explained. �That connection has remained over time, and there continues to be a mutual interest between Native American families and Cushing.�
Mr. Prindle said the decision by the students to donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale in New York to an art program that serves disadvantaged American Indian children grows out of Cushing�s history with American Indian students and families.
Lauryn G. Hunter, 17, a senior at Cushing from Montana, will have her masks, glass panels and sushi dishes made by glass fusing on display at the Ten Young Artists exhibit. She participated in the trip to New Mexico earlier this summer.
�We saw underprivileged people,� she said. �If they had what we had, it could change their life. We all decided as a group that that is where we wanted the money to go.�
Ms. Hunter, who plans to go to college and minor in art, said she started painting when she was 7. She also sketches and works with pottery, but really likes working with glass.
She said she is really excited about the exhibit.
�I have been looking forward to it all summer,� she said.
Leslie M. Ott, 17, from New York, is also excited about the exhibit.
Photographs she took on a trip to Ghana, Africa, last summer will be on display.
�My work is just like a baby to me, and I get to show it off, so that is kind of cool,� she said.
One of her favorite photographs, she said, is of the village elders, dressed in traditional garb and drinking soda out of bottles with straws.
�I took the shot during a ceremony,� she said. �It�s so cool. It looks like two worlds mashed together with this group of old men wearing traditional African clothing all drinking bottles of soda.�
She said Mr. Johnson, whom the students call �Bob,� got her more interested in photography and has been an inspiration to her along with Joan Hathaway, her photography teacher at Cushing.
She said she is looking at colleges to be a special education teacher, but considers photography to be a serious hobby.
�The exhibit is a really big honor,� she said. �There are so many talented students at Cushing, and it is an amazing feeling to have this opportunity and to have part of the money go to a really good cause. It is amazing we can do that.�
Gallery owner Susan Sheehan said the experience will be invaluable to the students.
�That these students have access to the Emily Fisher Landau Center at Cushing, a facility that graduate students would be happy to work in, is a great experience for them,� she said. �Showing in New York will be exciting, but even better is that these students are using their art to benefit others.�
Participating artists include: Vera Bennett, grade 12, painting; John Callahan, grade 12, sculpture; Diana Chung, grade 12, fused glass; Lauryn Hunter, grade 11, fused glass; Alex Krasowski, grade 12, photography; Peter Law, grade 12, metal sculpture; Julia Lin, grade 12, painting; Leslie Ott, grade 12, photography; Haley Pickford, grade 11, fused glass; Gaby Skok, grade 11, photography.
After the show�s opening from 6 to 8 p.m. Sept. 5, the exhibit will run through Sept. 12; it is open to the public. The Susan Sheehan Gallery is at 535 W. 22nd St., 3rd floor, New York. For more information, visit www.cushing.org/nyc/index.shtml.

When speaking of 'viral' in advertising, there are some themes that are automatically considered potential success, such as babies and dancing. So here an example from India, a local interpretation on the 'Take a break' Kit Kat campaign:
The ad is perceived as funny, cute and viral. Well, to me doesn't look like so, but hey, if Indian audience likes it, than it's good. Although, these babies scare me a bit, they are moving in a weird way.

Trader Home
Improving a Trader's morning routine through a trust-worthy dashboard
About the Project
Traders spend their day analyzing, optimizing, and reporting on advertising campaigns. To support this need, I designed a landing page that provides a quick overview into how their campaigns are delivering and performing. Traders can identify which campaigns need their attention and can take swift action to correct it. To accomplish this I:
- Conducted user research to learn what specific metrics were helpful to Traders when diagnosing issues.
- Pair designed with a designer to push the solution beyond our initial ideas.
- Ran usability tests to validate that notifications and alerts were triggered at appropriate times.
My Role
I co-owned the project with another designer. Together we conducted research, brainstormed and sketched ideas, put together wireframes and specs for development, and gathered feedback from stakeholders and users.
Discovering Needs
When a Trader logs into AppNexus's Console, they are greeted with a list of all Advertisers that their company works with, a lot of stats for those Advertisers, and a way to navigate to campaigns for each one. While this may seem straight forward and simple, for a Trader who is anxious to check the pulse of campaigns they are responsible for, this view is not helpful. It does not show them the relevant information and requires them to navigate in and out of pages to finally determine statuses.
To improve this experience we first needed to understand what Traders needed so I, along with a designer, a product manager and a UX researcher, spent a couple of hours observing a Trader during their morning routine. Our focus was on how they immediately analyze, diagnose and take action on campaigns. We arrived at 9am and split up into two groups of two with distinctive roles; a notetaker and a facilitator who asks clarifying questions.
By the end of the 2 hour session, we observed the Trader doing the following things:
- They were interrupted by emails and requests to do other tasks throughout the morning.
- Reports were pulled to address discrepencies between Console and their Advertiser's ad server's stats.
- adjusted daily budgets to make up for over- or under-spend.
- Targeting and bid strategies were tweaked to correct or improve performance.
We repeated this exercise with two more users at another company where we observed some differences and some similarities.
- They were more focused on completing each tasks before continuing on to the next.
- They had less interruptions throughout the morning.
- The first part of the day was focused on delivery and spend with the second half on performance objectives.
- Discrepencies were also addressed by pulling reports.
- daily spend was calculated in Excel and adjusted using the API to bulk update fields.
- Campaigns that weren't performing well were deactivated and bid strategies were increased on campaigns that were.
After gathering enough information the Product Manager committed to two main goals for the project and we revised our existing Trader persona with the new information.
Goal 1As a Trader, I am quickly able to check which campaigns need my attention so that I can save time in my morning routine.
Goal 2As an agency or network, I can handle more orders per Trader so that I can increase efficiency.
Designing Together
Now that we learned what our user needs and defined product goals, I was ready to begin brainstorming how the UI should work. Mike, the other designer on the project, worked in San Francisco and I worked in New York. We logged into our video conferencing tool to pair design for the next couple of weeks (learn how we pair designed remotely). We explored different layouts and interaction with the goal of supporting many objects in a single view.
A grid of cards
Rows of cards
An inbox-style layout
Accordion rows
We thought through a few different charts, possible metrics that could be useful, interactions that would be delightful to see when first logging in in the morning, and navigation to other areas of the product. After honing the design to something we were happy with we still had some questions we wanted to ask users.
We utilized the UX team's research program Allies, to see if the design was usable, gague their initial reaction, and to see if the information provided helped them identify campaigns that needed attention. With facilitation help from a UX researcher, we showed users an image of the design and asked questions like, "What does this number signify?" and "Do you see any campaigns that are not delivering well?" and asked them to complete tasks as a part of a fictional scenario.
Colors were more distracting than helpfulThis contributed to an overwhelming sense at first glance. Users needed a little extra time to understand all of the data we were presenting but could identify which campaigns were delivering poorly because of the red indication.
Terminology used in labels were understoodUsers were able to site that 'Yesterday's Spend' was the most important stat to focus on. They were able to express the calculations behind some of the data points as expected and identified which cards were indicating poor delivery.
The goal line was understood but didn't seem necessaryUsers were able explain the purpose for the goal line on the graph and thought it was interesting. In practice though, they didn't anticipate using it.
We used the results from the tests to inform the next iteration where we removed the goal line, reduced the amount of colors to just red for delivery or performance issues, blue for flight issues and grey for all other cases. As we iterated and added features based on product requirements, we continued to validate and increased the fidelity and functionality of our mocks and prototypes. We validated animations, transitions, color and font hierarchies.
As the project got more fine-tuned, it became unnecessary to have two designers working on the same project. I ultimately rolled off and Mike became the sole leader on the project while I worked on other things and provided feedback to Mike.

By Saswat Pattanayak (Published in CounterCurrents) It is the patriarchal fixation with fathers and husbands as feudal heads of indian households where sanctities are attached to family units, that leads to normalization of corruption in a judicial system that is unsurprisingly spearheaded by the brahminical chiefs. No matter what the chief of the family does, it has to be a hush-hush affair and not be made public. Family becomes sacrosanct and the head of family remains above reproach. Brahminism which governs Indian society is founded upon the philosophy of unquestioned belief in the supreme authority, the highest caste, the sacred…

Padmavati, Karni Sena and the crisis of Hinduism
By Saswat Pattanayak The outrage against Karni Sena is entirely misplaced. These hooligans will eventually be forgiven by their gods because they know not what they do. The real dangerous elements however are those who claim to know better, and yet fervently endorse Padmavati – whether as a fictional character, a historical figure, or as a movie script awaiting screening. In all shape, way, and form, Rani Padmini legacy is a textbook instance of Islamophobia. If the practice of Sati was/is justified by the Hindus as the chaste wife syndrome, the practice of Jauhar which Padmini was said to have…
Kanhaiya Kumar and Betrayal of Freedom Struggles
By Saswat Pattanayak Kanhaiya Kumar's arrest was unfortunate and so his release on bail is a great relief. But beyond that, to seek revolutionary potential in the hoopla surrounding it, is to miss the point entirely. Competing for authentic nationalism to legitimize an oppressive power structure is not what the Communists do. Quite the opposite. Sudden excitement and pronouncement of "victory" at the news of a judge granting Kumar's bail is a betrayal of Kashmiri peoples' struggles, given the specific contexts of denial of antinationalism on part of these students. It is as if the left-liberals of India were hoping…
Comrade A B Bardhan, Lal Salam!
By Saswat Pattanayak Comrade A B Bardhan (1924-2016) was not just the foremost communist mass leader of India who raised working class consciousness among millions through his oratory and organizational persistence, he was also the Marxist historian who accounted peoples' struggles like no one else had quite done. Well before publishing "People's History" had become a worldwide trend, Comrade Bardhan had reflected upon the critical role of working class in India's freedom struggle with these words – "Official histories are apt to pass over in silence the role of the working class in India's freedom struggle. They depict the freedom…
Modi-Sharif Class Interests
By Saswat Pattanayak Narendra Modi's newfound love for Sharif only proves how Class triumphs over everything. Capitalists can forgo all their differences in coming together for common cause. Adani/Jindal commercial interests in Pakistan ruled by a feudal lord whose family has profiteering interests in collaborating with the new souled-out India show how even the worst form of jingoism from either side has no locus standi when it comes to safeguarding class interests. No matter the religion or caste (Sharif being a Sunni Muslim and Modi being an OBC Hindu) or nationality and gender, when it comes to class interests, there…
Arvind Kejriwal Ko Gussa Kyun Aata Hai?
Arvind Kejriwal suddenly discovers in Modi a coward and psychopath, simply because he finally becomes a victim of fascist vendetta now. However, this outrage is a social media melodrama as it was Kejriwal himself who has contributed the most in the resulting chaos that prevail today.

Roots (and prospects) of Justice
Maulana Mohani was concerned that in our anticommunist quest, we were ignoring an emancipatory USSR Constitution, while heavily borrowing from colonial legacies of oppressive Constitutions of the imperialist world, and that, by doing so, we were facilitating prospects for dangerous communal violence in the coming years
Sovereignty, Unity and The State Of Denial
Contradictions abound in the new political landscape. Like Savarkar's divisive Hindutva excluded other religions, so does Modi's prescription of Hinduism as the way of life for Indians. To reemphasise my point: Modi did not win the people's mandate because he opposed divisive politics, but because he profited from it. Not because he spoke against identity politics but because it is the victory of the identity politics – specifically that of the Hindu identity. It is the victory of the idea of a Hindu nation.
The Politics We Deserve
By Saswat Pattanayak "Politics hates a vacuum. If it isn't filled with hope, someone will fill it with fear." (Naomi Klein) Fear-based politics reaches disproportionate heights when coupled with nationalistic frenzies. As a first sign of fascism, it assumes a normalized state, masquerading as an agency to dispel fear itself. To rejuvenate the political climate with a fresh lease by resorting to masculine rhetorics becomes its core strategy. It predictably attacks the progressives as conspiratorial and traitors, while it paints the secularists as impotent and pseudo. Fear-based politics mocks constitutional frameworks, not out of concern, but from disdain. It…

Finding Money In Gambling Games Or Gclub Games It could be called one of the ways that many people see the possibilities that are different in this point, no matter what.
This will lead us to step into any decision-making requirement, but everything that happens in gaming, gambling or gaming. Online casinos are not special to be able to earn as we always have to.
What is happening at this point is a part that makes us need to look at the role of the special.
The same thing that is happening will lead us to make better decisions. When is all that happening in gaming? Gambling is something that we can not know at all what is exactly what we want.
It is also a point where we need to see this understanding as well as what is happening.
What is actually happening is that it directs us to the goal of making decisions in order to make things happen. That is what we want to see the results clearly.
Although gambling games or Gclub games will be able to earn.
But everything that happens does not mean that it is what we can see.
What we need is easy, because everything that happens in the game of betting on each side,
it may be called that there is a reason in a different perspective, no matter how special. However, everything we can see is what happens.
To play gambling games online casino is still a plain indication, because everything that happens is not stable enough to make people interested in playing these things.
It is a career compared to gamblers around the world, which may be referred to as an extra income channel, rather than merely sticking to them.
Therefore, everything that happens in the game of online casino gambling may be called a relatively small income gap, but it is fun to create an incredible.
Gambling game online casino games that occur on each side to become what we can see the goal.
In a different perspective, we can see what happens in any form. The possibility of playing the game that we can use on each side is what makes us. Therefore, being aware of the fact at this point does not mean that gambling games are special, but it is something we can use.
It is normal to be able to have fun with the money as well, itself.

Visit the gardens of the Chateau de Valencay
The Château de Valençay is a magnificent Chateau in the Centre region of France. Famously owned by Prince Talleyrand who was Foreign Minister to Napoleon.
The garden is surrounded by a recently restored classical French-style garden. Parterres in symetrical patterns and with statues, basins and immaculate displays of colourful bedding plants which are changed with the seasons - these are classical French style formal gardens.
There is also the Duchess' garden with terraced flowerbeds and views over one of the last-surviving hunting lodges in France.
A large park and woods can be explored, replete with deer and peacocks and a recently created series of large meadows. All in all the park and gardens covers 53 hectares.
Called the 'Damier Fleuri' these meadows are all immaculately kept to large squares, the edges of which are mowed making it easy to wander through the meadows. The squares are filled with a glorious variety of specially selected wild flowers.
There is also a labyrinth, deer park, a mini farm and a 4km woodland walk that you can see and do. It is possible to hire an electric golf cart to explore the park.
The Chateau de Valencay is a beautiful Renaissance chateau and well worth visiting in its own right. There is a restaurant and tea shop in the Orangerie serving meals and refreshments.

The British gap-year tourist Eleanor Hawkins is being released from custody in Malaysia after pleading guilty to committing obscene acts in public when she and nine others stripped for a dare on Mount Kinabalu.
A judge at a court in Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah state, sentenced Hawkins and three others – Canadian siblings Lindsey and Danielle Petersen, and Dutch national Dylan Snel – to three days in jail from the time of arrest, 9 June, which means they have already served their time.
Ronny Cham, who represented Miss Hawkins in court, said she was relieved to be returning home. "She is pleased and happy," he told the Press Association.
Her father Tim Hawkins said she was under consular protection and Malaysian authorities were "processing her for deportation".
"We are hoping to get her back by Monday," he said. "Hopefully we should get a chance to speak to her soon." Prison guards said earlier that the four backpackers had not returned to the jail after the hearing, and did not have to wear handcuffs.
The four were also fined 5,000 Malaysian ringgit (£860) each. Hawkins left the court in tears as she was told she was to be freed after paying the fine.
The judge, Dean Wayne Daly, said: "This court accepted the plea of guilty as mitigation." He also noted the remorse of the tourists, and accepted that although Hawkins was arrested at an airport "there was nothing to show Eleanor was absconding the law".
Hawkins's defence lawyer, Ronny Cham, said: "This is a happy ending to the whole episode." He said he expected all four tourists to be deported after they had paid the fines.
Arriving handcuffed at court, the four defendants had to battle through a throng of reporters to enter the building. They pleaded guilty to committing obscene acts in a public place and agreed to apologise to the Malaysian people, after the stunt prompted an angry reaction in Sabah, where the mountain is regarded as sacred.
The judge decided against imposing the maximum sentence of three months in prison after the lawyer for the four said they were ignorant of local laws and customs and were sorry for what they had done.
Diplomats from the UK, the Netherlands and Canada were in court for the hearing. The Foreign Office refused to discuss the verdict, but a spokesman said: "We remain in contact with Ms Hawkins and her family following this morning's court appearance, and will continue to provide consular assistance."
Officials and tribal elders suggested the disrespectful act was linked to an earthquake that killed 18 people days later.
Eleanor's father, Tim, expressed relief at the verdict but said he was anxious to get his daughter safely back to the UK. Speaking by phone from his engineering business in Derby, he said: "We are relieved, but we don't want to say too much because we want to protect Ellie. As far as we know she is currently under the protection of the consulate."
He said he had not managed to speak to his daughter since the verdict. "We are waiting for the consular official to get her somewhere safe. We need to talk to the FCO about travel arrangements. As far as I've seen, it is immediate deportation.
"We really do want her home, but we've got no idea what is going to happen and when."
Hawkins praised the diplomats in Malaysia. "They have done a fabulous job, they've been really helpful, really useful. And our local MP Maggie Throup has been very good as well."
The charge, read out in court, was that at 6.45am on 30 May in the vicinity of Mount Kinabalu they carried out "obscene acts in a public place under 294 [a] of the penal code". They were also accused of "excessive noise and ignoring the advice [of their guide]". All four avoided trial by pleading guilty.
The public prosecutor had called for a "sentence to deter others". He said their behaviour caused "annoyance to many Malaysians" and urged the judge to "take into account public sentiment" in the sentence.
Cham pleaded for leniency: "Your honour, they were ignorant of the culture, tradition and belief of the local people … including the people of Sabah and Malaysia … This is a group of a young generation … who have more freedom and liberty to express their thoughts and ideas."
Cham said the four stripped as they were "challenging one another to stand the cold of the mountain, to stand the temperature, which was near zero degrees".
He said they had suffered "shame, ridicule and humiliation to themselves, their parents and possibly even their country … They have paid a heavy price … lost personal integrity and self esteem."
Police in Malaysia are looking for six other foreigners who appeared in the nude photographs and were wanted for public indecency, a police officer involved in the case told the Guardian on Friday. "We think they are still in Sabah," the officer revealed on condition of anonymity. "There is a possibility they have already left the country."
He said Hawkins and her fellow detainees did not identify the others who were with them: "They said they didn't know their full names, only nicknames."
Another police source said border guards had been informed and were hoping to catch the others at airports.

Hitman 2 is hilariously sardonic, stupid fun – but I still can't make sense of its plot
I loved the original Hitman. Well, I loved parts of it. Released as a series of episodes throughout 2016, IO Interactive's stealth reboot showed the world that globe-trotting murder is best positioned as a game of patient precision. But it was inconsistent – inventive, interconnected game mechanics were great but unrefined, while the levels themselves ranged from franchise bests (the seaside town of Sapienza) to forgettable bores (that weird militia one in Colorado).
Hitman 2 eschews the episodic structure for a traditional release – you get all the levels at once, and with them a better level of consistency across the lot. There's admittedly nothing here that rivals the heights of Sapienza for me – a level I poured 20 hours into alone – but there's no Colorado style missteps for you to wilfully avoid throughout the game's campaign. Throughout the five full levels (the sixth is a glorified tutorial) you'll go from the trackside bustle of a motor racing event in Miami to the humid drug lands of a densely forested Colombia and the packed streets of Mumbai.
It's not a Hitman revolution by any sense. The graphics are a little better – that is to say its environments look stunning while its character models still look like plasticine. There's a couple of new weapons to experiment with, but not many. Of course, there are also these new locations to visit and targets to assassinate. For some that'll be all that's needed to reinvigorate dozens of hours of creative killing. For others, it's just additional proof that Hitman isn't a game for you.
Within five minutes of playing the first level, which sets up the basics at a beautiful modern beachfront abode in a stormy New Zealand, I remembered everything that I love about Hitman, and everything I don't. Playing on Xbox One X, the game looks beautiful but, weirdly, doesn't run that well, chugging into a sluggish mess from time to time. It still controls fine, but as ever feels much too stiff if you're attempting any finicky movements, like silently shooting out a security camera. Just like Agent 47 himself, everything about Hitman 2 is too sterile for authenticity.
The real magic still comes from treating each level like its own cerebral puzzle – a maze of AI routines and environmental opportunities for you to manipulate to satisfyingly deadly effect. I still play the game like an episodic title, really. Rarely did I chain levels together – these are big, sprawling worlds in and of themselves, and can take a couple of hours apiece to navigate and complete. It means Hitman 2 is not really a pick-up-and-play affair. It requires your time and your patience – and only then will you get the most out of it.
While the levels can be played out of sequence (something I did exclusively), the game continues to try shoehorning an overarching story into the mix. It's a nonsensical and stupid plot that I've not yet been able to make head nor tail of, so why IO Interactive doesn't just sack it all off in favour of self-contained vignettes is confusing. It could be the perfect structure – individual mini-stories, one per level, that contextualise the nasty people you're assigned to kill. That's all Hitman really needs, so all this stuff about powerful enterprises controlling governments from behind the scenes washed over me entirely.
What I still love is how changeable Hitman is at a mechanical level. Every time I played a level – be it taking down a drug lord or infiltrating an unassuming suburb in the heart of Vermont – the game encouraged me to try something different. There are dozens of in-game challenges for each level, incentivising repeat playthroughs, and it makes discovery a thrill. This just about makes up for the annoyances with glitchy AI and the frustrating rigidity in how routines play out throughout each stage. It's still hilariously sardonic, stupid fun. Yet there's no escaping the fact that the series hasn't really moved on from where it was in 2016.

As I sit and begin to write,
And nothing is in sight,
For I am all alone tonight.
If I wouldn't have let you go,
My belly would just now start to show,
But instead I am feeling very low.
It has been over a month,
Since you left from beneath my heart,
And now I just pray to God for a new start.
I know the choice I made at the time was smart,
But it still breaks my heart,
That we are now apart.
I think of my twin angels,
No matter what I do,
I will always love you two.
The sky is not longer blue,
The tears I cry I cry for you.
Mommy is so sorry for hurting you,
I hope you are safe and playing,
Pain free,
Please learn to forgive me.

Egyptian cotton sheets are the most preferred selection today. They can be discovered in a wide variety of thread counts, anywhere from 300 to 1500 threads per square inch. Egyptian cotton is a fine, shiny, long staple cotton expanded in Egypt. Long staple cottons are more expensive than the typical available cottons, since they are associated with quality. Egyptian cotton has the lengthiest fibers. When the cotton is pulled from the cotton plant, and the seeds are gotten rid of Egyptian cotton has longer fibers available for spinning into yarn.

The satisfying, nutty flavor of high quality sesame oil is the hallmark of authentic Asian cuisine. From stir-fries to salad dressings, toasted sesame oil stirs the imagination and adds a Far Eastern note to everyday fare. What's more, sesame oil is one of the world's purest and healthiest cooking oils. The overpowering taste of many commercial brands of toasted sesame oil destroys the delicate balance of flavor required to do many authentic Asian dishes. Only the careful, slow processing used by traditional sesame producers maintains and preserves the subtle flavor of roasted sesame seeds.
The ideal choice for daily use, Mitoku Virgin Sesame Oil is easily digestible and is excellent for saut�ing, braising, and deep-frying (great for tempura), as well as in dips, dressings, and baked goods. Its mild flavor will enhance and never overpower the natural flavors of any dish. Besides its versatility in cooking, Macrobiotic and Ayurvedic teachers espouse the benefits of rubbing pure sesame oil into the skin. Also may be used for eye-treatments.
With its mouth-watering aroma and rich, nutty flavor, Mitoku Toasted Sesame Oil is prized as a seasoning agent as well as a cooking oil.
Red chili pepper is blended with toasted sesame oil to impart the fiery flavor of Mitoku Hot & Spicy Oil.
