This page belongs to 'plaster masonry'. Houses of plastered hollow brick have been built since 1930, on such walls are growth cable systems of FassadenGrün, ie all assembled kits are stainless steel and almost fully applicable. However, different problem areas should remain recessed, and with thick special plaster, problems can occur. On this page you will find this detailed information, also about the history and characteristics of hollow block bricks and for drilling in hollow masonry. Exposed hollow blocks, ie. As for clinker or bricks, they are discussed under 'exposed masonry'.
Since about 1930 were bricks not only massively made as 'solid brick', but made with holes as a 'perforated bricks'. Initially this was done because of material savings and lower costs while burning, but also to better 'interlock' the stones when laying on the mortar layer. For buildings that were built from this time, such cavities are often to be expected in the masonry. From about 1950 there were also plastered hollow blocks of concrete, partly filled or foamed. Later came increasingly the subject of 'insulation': with bricks with cavities significantly less heat can escape from the house as solid bricks. The hollowed stones were continuously optimized and there are now made with 'more holes than stone'. A trick - the insulation values are increased even further: In the kneading process the clay will have additives such as sawdust or similar mixed in, which burn off in the fire of formed bricks, leaving porous cavities in the already thin webs... Particularly well known are here 'Poroton' stones ( 'porous clay'). In addition there are stones where the foamed hollow chambers are filled with insulating material.
Basically hollow bricks are now chosen by those with a dense or porous structure, the latter as described as having a lower strength in the webs. The degree of porosity is difficult to see from the outside, most likely by the weight of the stones.
In exceptional cases plastered hollow bricks are used as the outer shell of a 'sandwich' facade. Behind a 10 cm thick, plastered hollow brick wall, when drilled then a larger cavity of turn of about 10 cm thick, which is filled with air and / or insulating material before the actual load-bearing wall of concrete or other masonry units followed. Such facades are to be considered 'Weather shells' and only limited suitable for attachment of growth aid systems.
Windows with plastic roll down blinds- or blind boxes, is best not drilled into. Also on windows (lintels) and in the area of ceilings, ring beams , and wall integrated supports. It often happens that these are offset appearing as concrete components and dressed flush with the wall with special sandwich bricks along with integrated insulation before the final plaster is uniformly applied. Thus warm bridges are avoided in the area of the concrete parts. At single places or (with older constructions) also extensive along these problem zones is to calculate with a direct layer of heat insulation (4 - 6 cms). Here it can become impossible to fasten standard holders for a growth aid system or a trellis - see below. These places are not really visible on plastering, however, are recognizable by light tapping and listening before the beginning of the drilling works.
One problem can also be special plasters with more than 2 cms of strength.
Basically here all constructions of FassadenGrün are suitable, the Massive with WM 12153 but with the restrictions made there, especially in very light vertically perforated bricks, where the strength of the stone material is still severely restricted. In the problem areas mentioned above, Cross holder WM 12XX2 might be necessary too. If plastic dowels such as DH 10065 are used, each larger variant is preferable.
Such walls are easy to drill into. All drill types can be used from FassadenGrün. The above, insulated zones, should not be drilled into or at least treated separately, by knocking lightly on the wall before the commencement of drilling, to inspect the situation. Hollow blocks with a high proportion of air chambers ( 'Poroton') are generally drilled without hammering or the hammer function, because otherwise flaking arises in the narrow webs and the sustainability of anchoring decreases drastically. Therefore, pre-drill with a smaller drill bit. Problems can occur when drilling in border areas of the webs and the hole 'runs away' and is wrong. By drilling and gluing the anchor via composite mortar can this be corrected. Please use the general remarks under drilling.

Arantza: Hey you guys, it's Arantza. Today I'm at LaserAway in Hermosa Beach to get laser hair removal. So today, I'm going to do some detective work because I've heard so many different myths about how lasers affect darker skin tones. So follow me inside as I get my treatment, and hopefully after this I'll make you guys all feel a lot more comfortable about getting laser hair removal with a darker complexion.
The most I'm feeling now is a slight tingling sensation, but it's like a one. Every time I come in it's less and less hair. So it's been working amazingly for me. I've been putting my arms up and down everywhere I go.
So obviously, this debunks all the myths that laser hair removal does not work on darker skin tones. Now that I don't have to shave, I have so much more time. I have relaxing showers, and I never have to bring razor blades to the situation. I cannot wait to finish getting my sessions, and now I'm a proud member of Team No Fuzz.
Announcer: To schedule your free consultation, visit us at LaserAway.net or give us a call today. See you soon.

When water temperatures dip below 50 degrees, the fish slow down and become less aggressive hunting for food.So, winter cats require a bit more work for the bite.Some anglers hit the ice while others head out on chilly lakes by boat in search of winter cats. Successful anglers have a number of ways to arrive at the two key factors for catching cats in colder water: locating where the lethargic fish are resting and getting bait right in front of them at just the right depth. Catfish Bait Articles Catfish Bait Recipe: WD-40 Marinated Chicken Biggest Catfish Records in the U.S. 6 Nearly Forgotten Catfish Baits You Should Try How To Make Your Own Catfish Dough Bait 10 Secret Catfish Baits You Didn't Know AboutYour first step in winter cat fishing, long before you assemble your gear, is researching the body of water you are fishing. No amount of expensive tackle can help you catch fish if you cannot find them. Every body of water is different. If you are new to winter cat fishing you might initially spend time experimenting on different lakes and rivers at different depths.Catfish often return to the same spots year after year, so once you find your sweet spots, you should find success there every winter. Because cats return to familiar resting grounds, it is important to not over-harvest. Most avid winter anglers stress a catch and release policy for larger cats for this reason.Winter cat fishing can be exhilarating and offers a different kind of thrill than the warmer months. Half the fun is finding the fish, and with a few secrets up your sleeve, braving the cold will be a worthwhile endeavor.Here are 8 tips towards more catfish during the colder months...Get TechnicalSince wintertime cat fishing requires finding the fish and getting precise placement of bait for both for location and depth, a little technological assistance is helpful. Ice flashers, fish finders and sonar devices are the recommended tools.Playing catfish with just a handline during the winter months is exhilarating to say the least. Here one is surfacing through a drilled hole in Wisconsin. Photo courtesy: Troy HansenThere are quite a few on the market and they come as simple or elaborate as you prefer. Some units have clear underwater camera technology, some enable you to fish two holes simultaneously and others accept SD memory cards for you to load lake-mapping software. Vexilar, Aqua-VU, Lowrance and Humminbird have a range of models with varied technology and price points.If you do not have one of these fish locaters, try loading the Navionics App onto your smartphone. It is handy for quick access to lake maps and GPS plotters. Team-up On Ledges If you have friends who enjoy wintertime cat fishing, teaming up to target the ledges in lakes can net impressive results. A group of eight or 10 people hitting the ice together enables you to spread out the rods along ledges where the fish often cruise for food.WhiskerSeeker Pro Staffer Troy Hansen holds a 16 lb. channel catfish on a lake in Wisconsin.Starting in the deepest spot, drill a number of holes so that you vary the depth of bait for each rod until you reach the flat of the ledge.In lakes deeper that 50-feet, channel cats are often located at depths of 15-to-35-feet. Fishing with multiple rods at multiple depths near the ledges and drop-offs has you covered when a school of cats moves through.Target The Break Side of a Structure Winter cats are resting in large holes (not necessarily deep) with slow moving water, which makes the break side of structures the perfect spots for finding them.Benji Brown with a 30+ lb. flathead catfish caught at Santee Lakes in South Carolina.Structures like log jams and beaver dams interrupt the natural flow of the current.The opposite side of where the current flows (the break side) is where you find slower water, and the moderate flow of natural food sources. If you can drop your bait into the resulting eddy, you will likely find waiting cats. These areas are great targets for channel cats and flathead catfish.Follow The Food While the catfish are not moving as much in the winter, the native food sources still are, so one way to find the fish is to follow the food. If you are fishing on ice or from the bank, a fish finder or sonar can help you locate schools of bait fish. They will appear as a cloud. If you fish just below the cloud, you are likely to find the catfish that are waiting to feed.Riley Brown with a 30+ and two 25+ lb. blue catfish on Lake Marion in South Carolina. Photo courtesy: Benji BrownIf you are fishing from a boat, look for the birds. If they are diving into the water, you know bait fish are present and the catfish are nearby. Use that as your starting point to fish the area, keeping an eye out for natural ledges or a creek mouth where cats may be hiding. Set your anchor and rods, and then wait for the cats to bite. Slow DownWhether you are ice fishing or dropping bait by boat, slower presentation is everything. Natural bait is moving slower in the water and so should yours. Once you decide on a location or spot to fish on sonar, drop bait throughout the area.Winter catfish set-up on a SeaArk Procat 200 with a dozen rods cast with shad and perch 360 degrees around the boat while anchored. Photo courtesy: Benji BrownThis might require multiple rods, varied depths, or both to cover your bases in this location. Keep the bait as still as possible. You can do this by keeping your lines tight or using a Carolina rig set-up to keep bait suspended and stationary.If you are fishing by boat and do not know where the fish are located, try drifting. The key is to slow the boat to less than 0.5 mph. Drift socks can help slow your speed.Fish Sharp Turned BanksIf you are not sure where to drill your first hole or what location target first, look for spots where the river makes a sharp turn or where a point protrudes into a lake. These are the locations where the current cuts into the edges creating deep holes where the catfish like to hide. Areas with a slow current over those holes are optimal.Amy Smith with an 18 lb. channel catfish on a Wisconsin lakeYou can use GPS or topographic maps to locate the tip of a turn or point that may be hidden beneath the ice or below the water's surface. Drill holes into the ice along both sides of the tip or turn. Drill more holes on the end and a few more up on part of the flat. You can use a fish finder to locate schools of cats or just cover your bases with multiple rods and tip-ups.Plan Ahead for Bait Fresh bait is always best, so planning ahead ensures that you are adequately stocked when you set out for your day of fishing. Go out during the week to catch panfish like shad, bluegill or skipjack. Keep the bait in a bag in the refrigerator.Dawn Debski with a 35 lb. blue catfish on the James River in Virginia. Photo courtesy: Benji BrownCut bait into smaller pieces than you would for other times of the year as the cats do not require as much food for winter feeding. Keep food sources native to the location that you are fishing. If you are venturing to a new location, go in a day or two early to catch the native bait sources that you need.Dress for Conditions It seems like a no-brainer, but you would be surprised at how many outings are cut short because anglers do not dress properly for the conditions. Due to the longer periods of time that you will spend fishing for cold weather cats, proper layering is essential.Anietra Hamper layered for winter fishing with a merino wool base layer, insulating layer and neck gaiter by Woolx.Start with a sweat-wicking base layer to manage moisture, then an insulating layer made of merino wool, fleece or down and top it with a protective outer layer that is wind-proof and water-resistant. Stay away from cotton. A hat, gloves, wool socks and comfortable boots round out the necessities.You might also opt for a lightweight merino wool neck gaiter that adds additional comfort and warmth. Keep a spare set of dry clothes in your bag.Hopefully these 8 tips for catching catfish during the colder months will help you put more fish in the boat and make for lasting memories with friends and family.This feature orginally posted in November 2016 and has been updated.

The Board Chairman and the management of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH), have pledged their unflinching support for the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the hospital, Dr. Gilbert Buckle, for his prudent management of the Internally Generated Funds (IGF).
The Board, said the CEO has introduced prudent fiscal measures, which included the streamlining of revenue collection and blocking revenue leakages.
This initiative has led to the realization of GHC 1.1 million, aside the increment in fees at the hospital.
This, the Board said, has helped reduced the debt profile of the hospital and continue to urge it on as the premier hospital in the country.
The Board, said the hospital as of July 2015, owes suppliers GHC 6,275,202.83 and by year ending November 2015, has paid GHC 5,394,210.00, representing a reduction of 86 percent.
Prof. Anthony Mawuli Sallar, the Board Chairman of the hospital made these revelations at a press conference in reaction to some allegations raised by the members of the Korle-Bu Senior Staff Association (KOSSA) and a petition by the Nurses and Midwives Association in Accra.
He said, in relation to staff allowances, the hospital owes GHC 2,413,590.00 as of July 2015, and has paid 594,447.00, representing 25 percent.
He said, the hospital had no judgment debt accrued due to acts, commissions or decisions of the CEO and the new Board since coming into office in September, 2014.
According to him, judgmentdebt of GHC 875,809.53, had been incurred by the hospital from August 2011 to June 2014 and out of this amount GHC 250,304.16 has been paid in August 2015 by the current management.
He stated that, there has been no personal travel of the CEO funded by the hospital since coming into office, the CEO has embarked on four approved travels to the following destinations: Chicago, Atlanta, India and Taiwan and all were paid for trips and not borne by the hospital.
''Upon assumption of office of the CEO and the Board, we inherited a situation in which the hospital had procured a Audi A6 as the official vehicle for the CEO and nine VW-Passats as the official vehicles for the use of Directors and their Deputies at the central administration,'' he revealed.
According to him, the Audi A6 was valued to enable a decision to be made if it was cost effective to sell it and purchase a less expensive one.
In view of this, the State Transport Corporation (STC) and the vendor, Stallion Motors, were requested to re-value the vehicle and they both indicated that the vehicle had depreciated, he noted.
He said, the Board upon review of the two reports decided that selling the A6 would cause additional financial loss to the hospital so, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, the Board decided not to sell it.
He added that for the nine other cars, the Ministry asked the beneficiaries to pay for it or return it to the Ministry since it was bought from the IGF without the Ministry's permission.
He added that two of the vehicles have been assigned as duty post vehicles to the Director of Medical Affairs and the Director of Finance and the amount paid by the hospital are being recovered.
He stressed that the hospital has traditionally not been recovering costs and in 2014 when the CEO assumed office with the Board's approval secured a parliamentary approval to increase the hospital's fees and charges by an average of approximately 150 percent for the year 2015 leading the gains being made by the hospital.

A 37-year-old woman accused of killing her 25-year-old nephew revealed she had an affair with him, according to court testimony.
During her murder trial Tuesday for the 2016 killing of Mohammed Abdelaziz, Andira Abdelaziz told court she stabbed her nephew as an act of self-defence because he allegedly threatened to kill her.
According to the San Antonio Express-News, the 6-foot-5, 213-pound nephew — a blood relative of the accused's husband — was physically and verbally abusive to her during their secret relationship.
According to police transcripts of texts between the two, Mohammed reportedly called Andira a "daughter of a whore," stating he would come visit her at her San Antonio home and killer her.
"Your life is over. Your kids are over. You're dead," stated one of Mohammed's texts to his aunt.
Andira told court her nephew banged on the windows of her home on Aug. 9, 2016 and began beating her. KSAT reported cops had responded to a burglary call at the home, but the woman insisted there wasn't an issue.
After the police left, Andira allegedly plunged a kitchen knife into Mohammed's back. He bled to death in her driveway.
"He sent some texts suggesting that he was going to reveal the romantic relationship to the family," said prosecutor Clayton Haden, noting she killed out of fear of becoming a family disgrace.
The trial continues. If convicted, Andira could face life in prison.

The secret marketing weapon : articles
This is why article writing, submissions and publications are also getting popular. There are already many tools that people can use to make the process of distributing their articles more easily. Though this is invaluable in getting the contents more exposure, which is only half of the story. Let us take a look first at the common mistakes that some people make before submitting their contents to article directories: 1. Publishing content that does not help your readers. Maybe in the process of writing articles, you are thinking that all that is you wanted is links back to your site.
And any visitors it can generate are fine. Guess what? Not all article banks and directories are going to accept your content automatically. Oftentimes, they have some guidelines and specifications on the articles that they are accepting. You can double the number of sites you can submit to by writing articles that the directories want to share with other people. All it takes is one publisher with a hundred thousand readers to increase your potential audience overnight.
Write the articles that publishers want in their publications if you want your article marketing to work the most effective way for you. This also means you have to obey the standard guidelines, spell checks, researching on a good topic and even hiring a writer to produce a good content on your behalf. In the end, it is all really a matter of choice on your part. You can start getting a little exposure from increased links back but on a very basic level. Or enjoy massive exposure from a little extra time making quality contents. It will be your choice. You may not be aware of the fact that an article submitted on directories is not meant to have the same level of exposure as highly-targeted content ones geared on a narrow group of people. Learn the difference between these two and it will surely help you know what kinds of articles to write and to submit. Confusing the reason to promote the articles with the reason to write them.
In article writing, there are three key benefits why you are promoting them; branding, lead generation and promotion, which are all part of your optimization efforts. But there is only one reason why you write an article, and that is to inform your audience. If the article is not focused on this primary and most important purpose, it will fail to achieve the three promotion benefits because no one will be interested in reading them. You need to figure out first how to get people to read what is in your article, then make them click on your resource box. You can achieve this by producing better contents. Failing to maximize the promotional opportunities of article marketing. You may know already that your articles can help you generate additional links back to your site. But do you know that you can get more visitors and better search engine results from that same articles? Mention keywords at strategic places. Just be sure not to overdo them.
Some are even using anchor texts which is also an effective method. But it is important to know that majority of the directories are not able to support this. Remember that is not only about the links back to your site. Part of doing well in your article marketing is getting picked up by publishers with a large number of audiences and gaining the ability of leveraging other brands because of the quality of your work. Better search engine results also are great benefits. But these things do not put much money in your pocket. There are other factors that can turn your article marketing efforts into an opportunity that can boost your earnings. Not just increase the number of visitors to your site. Start out with a plan and see to it that your article will serve the function that you intended it to have. 4 Things ALL Articles Must Have - Don't Forget! The importance of articles in today's websites and internet based companies are immeasurable.
They dictate a lot in the success and the drive of traffic into one's site. It has become a key element in making a site work and earns a profit. A website operator and owner must have the good sense to include articles in his or her site that will work for them and earn them the many benefits articles can give to their site. Articles have been known to be the driving force in driving traffic to a website. Articles are a factor in giving site high rankings in search result pages. The higher a site ranks the bigger slice of the traffic flow pie he gets. With a huge number in traffic flow, there are more profits and more potential for other income generating schemes as well. But, it is not just about stuffing your site with articles; they have certain requirements as well. These requirements must be met to obtain the maximum benefits an article will provide for your site.

WATCH: PNP chief/Santa Claus in the flesh pic.twitter.com/IPIjv3z7Rx— Bea Cupin (@beacupin) December 1, 2016
LOOK: 'Santa Bato' gives gifts to kids of Tokhang surrendered
MANILA, Philippines – He was dressed in a bright red suit, complete with a fake white beard and spectacles.
But the "Santa Claus" who showed up at the SM Megamall on Thursday, December 1, was no ordinary man – it was Ronald dela Rosa, the 4-star police general who heads the Philippine National Police (PNP).
Dela Rosa led a gift-giving activity organized by the PNP's Police Community Relations Group (PCRG).
The recipients? Children of "surrendered" drug personalities under the PNP's "Oplan Tokhang," a literal knock-and-plead operation where police weed out suspected drug users and pushers.
To date, police have visited more than 4.3 million houses and have tallied over 800,000 "surrendered" drug suspects.
But not all "Tokhang" operations are peaceful.
Most of the kids at the gift-giving event had one parent killed because of police anti-illegal drugs operations, Dela Rosa told reporters.
"Since most of these children lost a parent, a father, to our ongoing war on drugs, we want to compensate this loss, their sadness, with somehow a little feeling of happiness that they see it's Christmas and the police want them to be happy even if their father died because of our operations in the war on drugs," he said in a mix of English and Filipino.
He added: "So gusto ng pulis na bumawi, bumawi man rin sa mga bata (The police want to make up to these kids). These children are innocent of whatever their parents did in the past. Ang kasalanan ni Pedro, hindi kasalanan ni Jose (Pedro's sins are not Jose's sins)."
Dela Rosa handed out gifts to children – from toy police cars to stuffed animals – in an event sponsored by various commercial companies and the SM Group. The children came from the different districts in the jurisdiction of the National Capital Region Police Office.
A few hours before the Megamall event, Dela Rosa in a press briefing said the PNP would be placed under "terror alert level 3," following the discovery of an improvised bomb near the United States Embassy earlier this week.
Dela Rosa explained that he didn't want to "dampen the spirit of Christmas," reacting to negative comments online about his appearance in a Santa Claus costume.
"It means that we are not afraid of him. I want the public to feel that we are secure. I want the people to know that we are doing everything we can to secure the public," he added.
Dela Rosa leads the PNP in President Rodrigo Duterte's popular but controversial war on drugs. Since July 1, police have arrested over 38,000 drug personalities all over the country. But it's the death toll – of more than 5,600 – that has sparked indignation from groups both here and abroad.
Police have killed 2,004 drug suspects in operations while the rest of deaths are apparent vigilante-style killings that are "under investigation." (READ: IN NUMBERS: The Philippines' 'war on drugs') – Rappler.com

Unless you work in payroll, you probably didn't start your small business so that you could learn about direct deposit. Nonetheless, everyone in small business wants to find ways to cut down on costs – especially for functions outside of your core competency. Every business owner loves finding a new opportunity to reduce expenses on administrative overhead. It's what might be called a "no-brainer."
Paying workers by direct deposit is a no-brainer. First off, you will save money. The National Automated Clearing House Association estimates that businesses spend two dollars each time they pay a worker with a paper check. Such a high cost might sound odd if you have never thought about it – after all, how much does it cost to write a check – but it reflects the real costs of your time, the risk of fraud, and the occasional snafu arising from a lost check. Your time is what counts the most. Direct deposit will save time – which is one of your most precious resources. Your employees will appreciate it as well, as they'll have access to their pay on payday.
So, how do you go from paper to direct deposit? It starts with how you run payroll. Many small businesses pay workers in cash or check as a matter of technical proficiency, unaware that there are easy-to-use services out there that can work with any size company.
The first thing to understand is the pricing. The general rule across the industry is to charge employers a monthly base rate service fee plus a per-employee charge.
Many small business owners rely on an add-on QuickBooks service to facilitate the payment of wages by direct deposit.
At QuickBooks by Intuit, you can choose from several QuickBooks Payroll. Intuit's "self-service payroll" package costs $35 per month. With self-service, employers can send direct deposits around the clock, calculate paycheck amounts, file year-end forms, and run an unlimited number of payrolls. With the Full-Service Payroll plan, you get all of that plus help with filing taxes, an option to run same day direct deposit, and assistance from customer service agents. With both, you will pay an additional four dollars every month for each employee.
To set up direct deposit, you will need to be able to give information to QuickBooks about both your company and the employee to whom you want to send wages. With regards to your company, QuickBooks needs to know your company's zip code, the industry classification (there's a drop-down menu), the email address of the firm's principal owner, his or her 9-digit social security number, and date of birth.
Additionally, if the business owner is not the payroll person, then QuickBooks will ask for information about the person who has the responsibility to administer payroll. QuickBooks will ask you to verify your ownership of the bank account from which you want to withdraw funds to make the direct deposit. QuickBooks will make two micro-deposits, each of less than one dollar, and you'll have to verify the amounts. Last, you'll need to let QuickBooks know your employee's bank account information: the routing number of the bank, the account number associated with the employee's account, the name and address of the bank, and then the sum of funds to be withdrawn. Except for wages, you will only have to enter the information one time.
People tend to say that QuickBooks is a great out-of-the-box solution for small businesses who don't mind a bare-bones product. Customer service can be mixed, but the simplicity of setting up your account means that you may never need much customer service support.

Hygiene takes top priority when it comes to processing food and beverages. Production facilities should therefore be designed according to the principles of Hygienic Design. That means cables, connectors and housing bushings also play an important role.
Standards for cabling solutions used in food and beverage technology:
When it comes to food and beverage technology, there are few industries which are so multifaceted and demanding in terms of the requirements they impose on their operating conditions. The high standards applied to Hygienic Design are also placed on the electric components, so the requirements specification for cables and accessories is diverse. They must be resistant to a whole host of chemical, thermal and physical stresses so that they can be used in refrigerated areas and damp environments and still fulfil their function reliably. In addition, they must be resistant to aggressive industrial acidic and alkali cleaning agents which are commonly used during cleaning processes. Specific products with tailored features must be factored in to guarantee secure processing and minimum downtime through increased maintenance and service intervals.

Travelling with a purpose
By Amy Reiswig, September 2011
Writer Gary Geddes' most recent (of 40) books takes us to the heart of both justice and Africa.
A sunlit, partially glassed-in porch buzzed by rival hummingbirds looks out over the rising tide of Canoe Pass, what many call The Cut, between Thetis and Penelakut Islands. Here, political and humanist writer Gary Geddes shares stories of brutal atrocity as he discusses his most recent work Drink the Bitter Root: A Writer's Search for Justice and Redemption in Africa (Douglas & McIntyre, September 2011). Geddes looks relaxed and peaceful against the greenery of the yard—this Thetis Island resting place he has come to after travel, in body and words, through five countries of conflict in sub-Saharan Africa. But his book reveals searing stories he will ever carry with him, even in this small slice of paradise he now calls home.
Drink the Bitter Root is Geddes' latest work of non-fiction, in which he explores concepts of justice as played out not just in European courts but in the communities of Rwanda, Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, and the Somaliland region of Somalia. This new book extends Geddes' long career of promoting human rights and social justice through his writing. For example, No Easy Exit (poetry, 1989) deals with resisting dictatorship in Chile; Letters from Managua (non-fiction, 1990) addresses the civil war in Nicaragua; Flying Blind (poetry, 1998) reflects on Geddes' trip to Israel after the signing of the Israeli-Palestinian Peace Accord in 1993; and Kingdom of Ten Thousand Things: An Impossible Journey from Kabul to Chiapas (non-fiction, 2005) retraces the legendary journey of a fifth-century Buddhist monk through Afghanistan, China, and ultimately Mexico—all regions where social realities have been shaped by political conflict.
Over 40 years, he has written and edited over 40 books spanning poetry, fiction, non-fiction, drama, translation, criticism and anthologies. In addition to numerous literary awards (including the British Columbia Lieutenant Governor's Award for Literary Excellence in 2008) and several honorary degrees, he has earned recognition for his humanitarian efforts. In 1996, for instance, he was awarded the Gabriela Mistral Prize for service to the Chilean people.
Geddes has dedicated himself to service to others in many ways. With a doctorate from the University of Toronto, Geddes has brought his ideas into the classroom as a professor at various institutions in the US and Canada, including UVic, and has helped bring other writers' voices to light and life as the founding editor of two literary presses: Quadrant Editions and Cormorant Books.
Concerned once again with countries recovering from trauma, Drink the Bitter Root is obviously not a book of breezy travel writing. Recounting his journeys and talks with both African and Western people working at NGOs, embassies, internally displaced person camps, and hospitals, Geddes also shares stories from more difficult interviews: former child soldiers, rape victims, refugees, street kids—people victimized in so many ways by conflicts with which, Geddes says, Westerners are deeply complicit.
As a result, Geddes' style mixes political reportage, history, travel, cultural analysis and personal memoir. Yet it's not an overly graphic, ravaging read. Instead, it's told with lyrical description, humility and even humour—"After four hours of non-stop camel poems we were still not over the hump."
Geddes explains: "I didn't want to be Cassandra and send people out looking for a razor blade." Rather, he says, "I wanted to involve people." And he does. He takes us to places we will likely never go to learn things we would likely never otherwise know.
While starting at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Geddes' real interest is in local rites of traditional justice, such as the Rwandan Gacaca courts, the Somali shir and the Mato Oput ritual of Uganda's Acholi people. In fact the book's title derives from the latter, which, he writes, "involved both parties drinking the bitter root of the opot tree, mixed with blood and kwet, a maize-based fermented beverage, from a common cup, or calabash, as part of the reconciliation ceremony after someone was intentionally or accidentally killed."
This idea of reconciliation as the basis for justice challenges Western notions of retributive justice with a more restorative approach (often through the healing arts of language)—an approach that deals with rebalancing a damaged community. Physically mutilated victims (all are emotionally disfigured) advocating for forgiveness and restoration of perpetrators to the community had Geddes surprised and humbled. The trip itself, he says, "altered what I thought my journey was about. I spent more time challenging my preconception about things than I expected," he says reflectively. "I went thinking I knew more than I knew."
Therefore, he describes the book as "a personal testimony of ignorance confronted." Part of what makes Drink the Bitter Root accessible and relatable is the fact that the ignorance Geddes confronts is not only external—of places, people and politics—but internal: about himself.
On listening to trauma victims face-to-face he tells me, "I thought that was tough. But getting back and writing about it was even tougher—trying to figure out why I was doing it. Was I exploiting violence? The word 'redemption' in the title refers to me as much as to Africans."
For even after a lifetime of engagement travelling in and writing about human rights hot spots, Geddes says: "I still don't feel as useful as I could be." The book certainly challenges readers to consider where to put their time and attention and how to become involved in the lives of others. And that's something, Geddes also points out, we don't have to go to Africa to do.
When I ask if Geddes thinks we can change ideas about and approaches to justice here in Canada, he says: "We need to listen much more carefully to aboriginal people doing restorative justice and healing circles." There's a lot of similarity, he explains, between aboriginal healing circles and some African traditional justice rites. "Revenge is an old notion," he admits, but says the victimized people he spoke with were "light years ahead of me: they understood that revenge never ends but restoration can break the cycle." It's an interesting thought to contemplate, particularly on Geddes' patio in plain view of Penelakut, formerly Kuper Island, where the legacy of a residential school speaks of our own human rights abuse record with First Nations.
"Writing about any part of Africa," Paul Bowles once said, "is a little like trying to draw a picture of a roller-coaster in motion." Its dynamism is partly terrifying and partly exciting—two words applicable to Geddes' important and ultimately inspiring work here. And this is a read where, also like a roller-coaster, once you get through the sometimes challenging ride, you find you want to go back for more.
Drink the Bitter Root will be launched in Victoria at The Well, 821 Fort Street on September 12.
Amy Reiswig, writer, editor and slightly bruised optimist, is grateful for authors who continue to prove the positive power of language, its ability to build bonds across difference and effect real change.

Published in iAffairs Canada / Canadian Foreign Policy Journal
The leader of a new Macedonian political party was texting me in the middle of the night recently, giving me updates on her spokeswoman's surgery to repair two broken legs, suffered at the hands of riot police earlier that night. Her crime? Attending a peaceful protest against changing Macedonia's name and identity.
If somebody told you that an entire ethnic group's name and identity was being changed to appease its oppressors, you would react in outrage. If they followed up by saying, "Oh wait, it's a diplomatic dispute", would your response be "That's okay then. They should resolve this dispute by denying their own existence"? This is what's happening to Macedonia and Macedonians.

Alcohol Rehab & Detox
in Mission Viejo, CA
Alcohol Rehab & Detox in Mission Viejo, CA
Understanding Alcoholism and Alcohol Use Disorder
More than 15 million adults ages 18 and up suffer from alcohol addiction in the United States. 1 The rate of alcoholism, medically referred to as alcohol use disorder (AUD), is on the rise in America, with about one in eight adults meeting the criteria for this diagnosis. 2 That figure equals to approximately 12% of the U.S. population suffering from a form of alcohol use disorder.
Risks Associated With Alcohol Addiction
Someone with an addiction to alcohol struggles to manage drinking habits. There are mild, moderate and severe forms of alcohol use disorder.
AUD is a chronic disease that affects brain functioning. It can be genetically passed down or may be environmentally or psychologically based. 4 When you feel that you cannot function without drinking alcohol on a regular basis, it's likely that you are suffering from an alcohol abuse issue.
Alcohol addiction is the third leading, preventable cause of death in the United States. 3 Its effects can negatively intrude on nearly every aspect of a person's life, including:
- Physical and mental health
- Social, employment and family relationships
- Causing or becoming victim to unintentional injuries and accidents
Symptoms of Alcohol Use Disorder
The number of symptoms displayed can help determine whether there is a mild, moderate or severe form of AUD. Some of the main signs of alcohol addiction are the following:
- An uncontrollable urge to drink
- Little to no control over how much alcohol is consumed
- When not drinking alcohol, thoughts become more negative in nature
- Drinking in risky situations, such as driving after drinking
- Drinking gets in the way of your family and/or work obligations
- Although it causes worsening problems, drinking continues
- Avoiding activities once enjoyed in order to drink alcohol
- Legal problems as a result of drinking
- Drinking to relax or to sleep
- Drinking first thing in the morning
- Greater amounts of alcohol are needed in order to feel its effects
- Symptoms of withdrawal begins when you stop drinking for too long
There are more symptoms and signs associated with AUD. The more of the above issues that relate to you, the greater your severity of alcohol addiction is likely to be.
Alcohol Detox Withdrawal
Withdrawal from alcohol use will elicit a life-changing positive effect in the long run, but there are a variety of symptoms that accompany detox that first must be confronted. Keep in mind that alcohol addiction affects your brain function and disrupts your nerve signaling system.
With AUD, the body has adjusted to having alcohol in the system around the clock. When those alcohol levels drop dramatically, your brain is still working hard to keep the central nervous system functioning as though nothing has changed yet. This causes an agitated state to occur within the body, resulting in withdrawal symptoms.
When detoxing the body of alcohol, the symptoms of withdrawal can vary from mild to serious, depending upon the severity and length of the disease.
Early Withdrawal Signs
Milder signs of withdrawal after six hours of having had a last drink include:
- Feelings of anxiety
- Shaking hands
- Headaches
- Nausea and/or vomiting
- Experience trouble sleeping
- Sweating
Serious Withdrawal Symptoms
Serious symptoms occur within the first two or three days of withdrawing from alcohol, including:
- Delirium tremens (the DTs), causing acute hallucinations and delusions
- Pounding heartbeat
- Confusion
- High blood pressure
- Fever
- Considerable amount of sweating
- Hallucinations
- Seizures
Long Term Effects of Alcoholism
Being diagnosed with alcohol use disorder or alcoholism means you are at risk for some of the more serious, long-term effects associated with this disease. Drinking excessively over time may eventually lead to chronic medical issues.
Some of the physical conditions that can occur as a result of AUD are liver damage, heart disease and the risk of acquiring various forms of cancer.
You are at greater risk for developing a type of cancer if you are a heavy drinker of alcohol.
The most common forms of cancer associated with alcoholism are:
- Liver and kidney cancer: Alcohol abuse, over time, damages the liver, creating a lot of scar tissue that causes inflammation and risk for cancer. The kidneys have a tough job ridding the body of alcohol, because this liquid also works as a diuretic. This also ups the risk of acquiring cancer in this organ.
- Throat and larynx cancer: Some people who abuse alcohol are also heavy smokers. Chronic alcohol intake decreases the ability of cells in the throat and larynx to fix any damage done by smoking, leading to increased risk for these types of cancer.
- Cancer of the esophagus: Again, those who are heavy smokers and drinkers are at greater risk for esophageal cancer than those who abuse just one of these substances.
- Breast cancer: The risk for breast cancer in women is heightened with alcohol use disorder, even if use is mild to moderate in nature.
- Colon cancer: Men and women who suffer from alcoholism are at greater risk for developing colon or rectal cancer.
Other forms of cancer associated with AUD include pancreatic and gastrointestinal.
Other Health Effects
The development of an alcohol use disorder causes severe damage to the liver. Not only can liver scarring and inflammation lead to cancer, but it can also cause alcoholic hepatitis or fatty liver disease.
Chronic drinking affects the lining of the stomach. Over the long term, this inflammation increases the risk for developing ulcers, ongoing heartburn and gastritis.
The inability to digest nutrients such as vitamin B12 or thiamine, resulting from alcoholism can lead to malnutrition, brain damage and blood or immune system issues. Heaving drinking also has an especially negative effect on two digestive organs: the pancreas and the liver. Long-term use can cause pancreatitis, diabetes, cirrhosis and other liver problems discussed above.
The lack of vitamin B12 and thiamine retention in the body also affects the brain, leading to symptoms that can mimic dementia. Memory loss, blackouts and difficulty forming new memories can be long-term effects of alcoholism.
Reproductive fertility is also at risk, including the possibility of producing a child that is born with fetal alcohol syndrome.
The loss of nutrients incurred by chronic alcohol intake affects bones and muscles, leading to the possibility of developing osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. Your immune system is also weakened, increasing your exposure to catching contagious diseases.
There are also mental health changes that occur with long-term AUD. Chronic and heavy drinking may trigger some mental illnesses due to the brain chemistry changes that occur. Depression and bipolar disorder are just two psychiatric conditions than can coincide with alcoholism.
Myths and Truths About Alcohol Use
There are some common misconceptions about drinking alcohol and the effects that it can have on lives.
Myths and Truths About Alcohol Use
There are some common misconceptions about drinking alcohol and the effects that it can have on lives.
Beer vs. hard liquor: One impression many people have is that beer cannot get you as drunk as hard liquor can. The truth is that beer is just as intoxicating as liquor. It doesn't matter that much what you drink. What matters is how much you drink. If you suffer from alcohol use disorder, your tendency to overindulge when drinking hard liquor will be just as similar when drinking beer, which has a lower alcohol content, but will still get you drunk.
Developing a high tolerance for alcohol makes you lucky: Yes, over time, chronic drinking leads you to develop a tolerance, meaning you need greater amounts of alcohol to feel the same effects you seek. This, however, means your body has been negatively affected by alcohol and is damaging your organs. This is a negative and not a positive development of alcoholism.
Coffee or a cold shower will get you sober quickly: This is not true. Only time will get you sober, because your body must process the alcohol it's taken in. It takes 60 minutes to process each standard sized drink of beer, wine or liquor you drink.
Eating a big meal will prevent feeling drunk: The effects of drinking alcohol may be delayed by eating a lot of food, but if you drink excessively, you will still get quite drunk. The rate of absorption of the alcohol will be slowed down, but food doesn't interfere with the effects of alcohol.
Having a nightcap will help with sleep: The reverse is actually true. Alcohol is disruptive to sleep. It decreases the amount of REM time you get, which is necessary for a restful evening's sleep.
Getting Sober
Going through alcohol withdrawal and detox can be hard work, but the benefits are enormous. Mental and physical health improves, as well as relationships with others. There are a few challenges, however, both during and after gaining sobriety.
Alcohol detox is the first step towards becoming sober. Some people experience much pain during detox while others suffer only the milder symptoms of withdrawal. It takes a week or two or more to flush the system of alcohol toxins, depending upon the severity of the disease.
The detox process causes symptoms that may worsen, especially after the first 24 hours, when you may feel disoriented and have hand tremors in addition to the other symptoms mentioned. These may continue into the next day, with hallucinations and panic attacks.
After the first week of detox, these effects will begin to decrease. They can also be treated with medication and medical supervision, which is an important aspect of any detox program.
Some medications used to combat withdrawal symptoms for alcohol detox include:
- Benzodiazepines calm the central nervous system and help reduce insomnia, anxiety and muscle spasms. These types of drugs are most often used in inpatient rehab settings.
- Naltrexone, which reduces the cravings for alcohol
- Acamprosate, to help with normal brain function and reduce cravings
- Disulfiram, which produces undesirable side effects if you attempt to drink alcohol. These effects deter you from drinking alcohol and are more likely to be used during post-recovery to prevent relapse.
Becoming sober is a huge achievement, but there are still struggles to deal with afterwards, especially during the first year. You may continue to experience some withdrawal symptoms, bouts of depression, have strong emotions, anxiety, sleep issues and have problems relating to friends and/or family members.
But you will look and feel much better over time, have greater control over your emotions when alcohol is no longer affecting your neurons and your mental health should steadily improve. Continuing on the path to physical sobriety will help you regain the psychological and emotional sobriety.

Michigan Representative Bob Genetski is currently on trial for DUI-related charges. Among the contentions from the defense is that the blood alcohol tests that were administered at the time of his arrest were contaminated. If successful, the politician could be found not guilty of all charges against him. If he is convicted, he faces potential fines, loss of license and driving privileges and possibly jail time.
Central to the argument being made by the defense is that there were mistakes in the calibration methods of the lab that processed the blood alcohol tests of the accused. The claimed errors included a trace amount of ethanol that may have been present in the blood that was tested for intoxication. The ethanol is said to have come from the equipment used by the lab, having been used in the calibration process recently.
It remains to be seen if the jury in this case accepts that the ethanol may have affected the blood alcohol test results enough to push the level found in the lawmaker's blood to over 0.08 percent. There was evidence presented that it was possible, however. In fact, a defense expert witness told the court that, based on uncertainty from the ethanol, the man's blood alcohol content was likely somewhere in the range of 0.076 and 0.085, rather than the 0.088 that was found when the tests were administered at the time of the arrest.
Though there will likely be opposing arguments from the prosecution in this case, the defense asserts the methods used by state labs to measure blood alcohol may be flawed. If this is the case, those who have been accused of DUI based on faulty lab procedures may not face punishments such as the loss of license and driving privileges. The outcome of this case may impact many DUI cases across our state if the lab is found to have exposed some to criminal charges with potentially inaccurate results. A well-managed defense includes the careful examination of all evidence. Anyone in Michigan who is accused of a crime has the right to mount such a defense.

Magic Strollers
In the fifth installment of the "Marvel Us Disney" podcast series, Jim Hill takes an in-depth look at the Incredible Hulk's origins. In particular how this Stan Lee / Jack Kirby creation initially made the leap from comic books to television series (both animated & live-action). And speaking of TV, Aaron Adams is not okay with how Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment has been handling the ultra-HiDef titles in its library. And he worries about the possible impact that this cost-conscious corporate decision might then have on Marvel Cinematic Universe fans.

What's So Vegan About Vegan Beauty Products?
Noughty, by nature.
When it comes to the ingredients in our beauty products, we're discovering more every day.
Granted, some of what we're learning — such as the fact that our shampoos and conditioners may contain potentially harmful and unnecessary ingredients such as parabens and sulfates — is scary. (Not to mention that using products that are harsh on the hair can lead to a variety of hair emergencies.) But even scarier is the fact that these ingredients don't tell the full story about what's in your hair products.
Lorna Mitchell and Rachel Parsonage, the co-founders of Noughty Haircare, found this out and decided to do something about it with the help of beauty botanist Jennifer Hirsch.
"We started Noughty haircare in 2016 because we couldn't find a product on the high street that offered high-performance results with natural ingredients," Mitchell and Parsonage explain. "It was important for us to create an inclusive brand that's vegan-friendly and cruelty-free, and free from the ingredients that we felt strongly do not belong in haircare, like high fragrance levels, silicones, parabens, and sulfates."
Even natural-sounding components can be misleading (consider products like gummy bears — seemingly so innocuous, and actually very non-vegan and derived from the collagen of pigs' skin and bones).
"Non-vegan beauty products can contain ingredients such as keratin, lanolin, beeswax, and silk proteins which are derived from animals," say Mitchell and Parsonage, who add that with high-tech plant actives and botanical chemistry, there's no need to use animal-derived ingredients in beauty products. "From algae and seaweeds to plant oils and stem cell extracts, the inherent activity of plants is being researched, extracted and harnessed for benefits that deliver real performance on hair."
The Noughty haircare products are as expansive as the naturally-derived powers that are utilized to make them. Lemon and chamomile are used in Blondie Locks, their blonde-enhancing line. In their Pumped Up Shampoo and Conditioner, limp locks get a boost from Vitamin B5. These are vegan to boot and instead of containing high fragrance levels, they use delightful, delicious-smelling ingredients such as passion fruit, rosemary, and mint. As a curly girl, I'm a huge fan of their Wave Hello Shampoo, Conditioner, and Taming Cream, all of which go on lightly and smell divine while smoothing and defining.
As Mitchell and Parsonage explain, using natural products has both short-term (healthy hair, cruelty-free products) and long-term benefits: "There are the social and environmental impacts of sourcing natural ingredients. A natural ingredient benefits a whole chain, the community involved in its growth, harvest, and processing. And the more of us who use natural products, the more research and development money goes into isolating more and more effective extracts. Which means more innovative and effective hair care for you, and more money for the communities growing the natural ingredients at the core of Noughty."
So where to begin?
"Noughty's Detox Dynamo is a good place to start if you have been using products with silicones as it speeds up the detox process, revealing your freshest, healthiest hair faster," suggest Mitchell and Parsonage. "It contains peppermint and sorrel extract which are natural purifiers and detoxifiers." If your hair is damaged from numerous chemical treatments and heat styling (hello, me!), Mitchell and Parsonage recommend their Intense Moisture Treatment with restructuring black oats.
While Mitchell and Parsonage recognize that "it is our mission to provide transparent, honest information in a language you can understand," it's also important to note that the Noughty brand goes even beyond its original goals of providing healthy, natural, and cruelty-free products. "We're proud to say that in the past two years we have developed a Noughty community: a team of passionate women in beauty all over the world who, like us, advocate self-confidence, self-acceptance, self-development, and self-love."
Comment: How important is it for you to use hair care products that are not just naturally-derived, but cruelty-free?

Teruki ameba blog entry [2015-01-18]
Mother's birthday
Teruki is writing. On day's before yesterday evening I came back to Sendai.
My sister is also living in Tachikawa,she came to home with her 1 year old daughter. So Nagata's house became really lively☆
I know it's a little late, but we went to neighbour's shrine yesterday. It took 1 hour to walk .
It was cold with heavy snow and wind. (´ω`;)
It was nostalgic to walk while listening to songs.
It was cold with heavy snow and wind. (´ω`;)
It was nostalgic to walk while listening to songs.
Also, today was my mother's birthday. We all 3,we went to Matsushima onsen.
Yesterday TV and newspapers were talking about Awaji Earthquake.
I was middle school student at that time. It happened on South Niigata,it felt like different world to me.
Also, I went skiing that day. During The the Great East Japan Earthquake I couldn't contact my family. I went to Arahama because there were acquaintances, cafekko who passed away.
When we see disasters and accidents on Internet and TV everyday,little by little you start to think that it's not person's business ,but when I saw photos of Awaji earthquake on Yahoo top page, I felt different feelings.
Although I haven't been in band during middle school,now I'm adapted to this kind of job. We performed in Kansai many times. I thought " During Awaji earthquake a lot of people passed away, between these people there could be cafekko,there could be people which are involved with our work" .
It's similar with eruption of Ontake-san Traffic accidents are happening everyday.
You can't know what can happen .
Thinking like that,we can't worry about small things,can we?
In order to die without regretting anything,isn't life about doing important things and things you love ?
We don't know when we will die.
Live as you like!
You can abandon something, escape from many things,but I don't say you have to live irresponsible life.
Do things you like,cherish important things and have responsibility!
I want to properly "Do your best by enjoy doing thing you love" .
I think I have changed by thinking like that.
There is great weather in Sendai☆ Although it's cold outside, if you have sunshine inside it will be almost hot (*^ω^*)
I hope you enjoyed translation! There can be some mistakes(I'm not perfect translator) . You can freely share this translation with credit of course!
