Oregon rushes to approve recreational pot retailers by year's end
The state agency in charge of recreational marijuana sales is rushing to approve about 70 would-be retailers this week before new rules on sales take effect Jan. 1.
Medical dispensaries wanting to cut into the generally more profitable recreational sales won't be able to do so anymore come the start of the new year. That's when rules allowing them to sell small quantities of recreational pot on the side will expire.
As of Dec. 20, 319 of the state's 352 medical dispensaries were taking advantage of these so-called "early retail sales," according to the Oregon Health Authority.
"We're working as fast as we can," said Mark Pettinger, spokesman for the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, which regulates recreational sales.
The agency said earlier this month there were more than 900 applications assigned to staffers for approval – that includes retailers, processors, labs and others seeking accreditation. On Wednesday, there were 836.
"While we understand that our speed and efforts are crucial for many of the small businesses trying to cross the finish line, your work as applicants is just as critical," Steve Marks, Executive Director of OLCC, said in a Dec. 2 memo. "We can do our part if you do yours."

As of Wednesday morning, OLCC had approved 175 retailers for licensing. Last week officials approved 58 licenses, Pettinger said, and applications are continuing to come in — 129 between Dec. 2 and Dec. 28.
Oregon Public Broadcasting reported the fines for medical dispensaries caught selling recreational weed after the rules expire start at $500 for each violation.
In Salem, Homegrown Oregon medical dispensary was poised to pay its licensing fees on Wednesday and ready itself for continued recreational sales on Jan. 1 after OLCC approved the shop.
The company's suppliers haven't apparently been so lucky. Medical dispensaries have to switch over their supply lines to OLCC-approved growers, which could snarl the process of getting pot from seed to shelf.
"It seems like most of our growers won't be ready for us," said SuAnne McGlone, owner of Homegrown Oregon.
In Stayton, Homegrown Remedies hasn't been approved for 2017 recreational sales.
Co-owner Adam Culbertson said while his medical dispensary isn't facing closure over the delay, "it'll have a huge impact."
"You don't want to turn any customers away," he said. He said the dispensary sent in its application to OLCC in November and recreational pot accounts for about 80 percent of the dispensary's sales.
Customers shouldn't be surprised if they go into their regular shops at the start of the year and find they can't buy recreational pot anymore – at least for a time if the company hasn't gotten their recreational license.
"It doesn't mean it's a forever thing," Culbertson said. "It's all a process in the works."

While the Trump administration has repeatedly distinguished Khashoggi's murder and the war in Yemen as separate issues, lawmakers are tying both together as a showcase of how blank-check support for Saudi Arabia erodes USA moral standing.
It's among several measures being considered after a closed Central Intelligence Agency briefing on Capitol Hill. USA intelligence officials have said that the murder was carried out by agents of the Saudi government and ordered by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
After the meeting, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham told reporters that MBS is "complicit" in the murder.
The resolution says the Senate believes Mohammed bin Salman "was in control of security forces" during the killing and has "a high level of confidence" that the crown prince was "complicit" in the murder, based on "evidence and analysis made available".
The office of Istanbul's prosecutor on Wednesday issued an arrest warrant for two Saudi officials for their alleged links to the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the kingdom's consulate in Turkey.
In the Khasoggi case, Trump has repeatedly avoided rebuking Saudi Arabia, pointing to the economic benefits of US arms sales to Saudi Arabia and Riyadh's role in preventing a spike in oil prices.
Blunt told reporters at the time that the House was unlikley to move on the resolution, and he didn't think a Senate debate on Yemen would be particularly helpful in encouraging the peace process along.
Corker suggested that President Donald Trump had condoned the murder of a journalist by refusing to condemn the Saudi crown prince.
Saudi Crown Prince meets Russia's President Putin; discusses oil market rebalancing
US President Donald Trump, Prince Mohammed's most vocal backer , did not have time for a one-on-one meeting. They also have a record of the prince talking about "making arrangements" to deal with Khashoggi from 2017.
The crown prince ordered and monitored the killing, Senator Bob Corker said.
"The global community seems to doubt Saudi Arabia's commitment to prosecute this heinous crime", the official said, adding that by extraditing all suspects to Turkey, "Saudi authorities could address those concerns".
Senators had wanted a briefing from Haspel about the CIA's assessment that bin-Salman was behind the killing but the Trump administration had sent instead secretaries of state and defence Mike Pompeo and James Mattis to bring them.
Riyadh has since detained 21 people over the murder. "I'm not going to blow past this", he said. You'd have to be "willfully blind" to not conclude Mohammed was responsible, he said.
Both officials took the position that there was not enough evidence to tie the killing to the crown prince. He was not in Haspel's briefing, which was attended by a select number of committee chairs and top-ranking Democrats.
Three GOP lawmakers have voiced their own conclusions since a separate classified briefing on Tuesday.
Illinois Sen. Richard Durbin said the briefing with Haspel "clearly went in to an evaluation of the intelligence" and was much more informative than the session with Mattis and Pompeo.

Mindfulness, socialarbetaren och relationen till klienten : En kunskapsöversikt
The interest of mindfulness has grown steadily during the last two decades. Mindfulness presence in the area of social work is mostly as an intervention offered to clients. However, the purpose of this study is to examine what implications the social worker's mindfulness may have for the relationship with the clients. There is a lack of scientific studies focusing on mindfulness and the relationship between the client and the social worker. To fill this void we turned to psychology and psychotherapy research. The method used was a narrative review. The results were analyzed using a theoretical framework consisting of a theory viewing social work as reflexive-therapeutic and theories about the working alliance. The research about mindfulness effects on the relationships is still very new and contains a wide variety of definitions, operationalizations and study designs. The results show that mindfulness may enhance the social worker's ability to create and establish a strong and constructive relationship with the clients. For example it seems like mindfulness cultivates the social worker's ability to be less judging as well as more accepting, present, attentive and empathetic.

If you are actually acquainted along with me and also my principles, after that you might actually understand that I have been actually making an effort to aid transform a number of the unfavorable sights that lots of folks possess concerning psychics as well as just what they perform. Considering that I have covered some from those elements in various other articles I would like to center much more on exactly what a reader need to be and just what you can reasonably count on to gain from a telepathic analysis.phonepsychicreadingsguide.comOne of the most profound principle that entered into my understanding at the starting point from this adventure for me as a "telepathic" specialist was the tip that our team are all right here to learn one thing; to increase and also evolve towards brilliance of the soul. When a genuine clairvoyant is doing their project, they are assisting you in an understanding from certain parts from your life when you find cheap psychic advice. The explanation psychic readings online recommendations may be thus effective is considering that this can provide much needed to have idea in to your lifestyle that you would typically not recognize due to the fact that you could be actually so involved in the day-to-day tasks and celebrations of your life that you locked out your very own instinct as well as your personal potential to access your Greater Self. Psychics are accessing unseen elements in attributes; having said that within all from our company exists a hidden, decipherable code that persons along with strongly built telepathic intuition and/or along with making use of certain clairvoyancy tools, can easily quicker get access to. These individuals were actually either birthed with an all-natural present and/or has created this.The moment I discovered my correct pathway, I decided to earn that my mission that can help those that seek this to locate the electrical power from their interior planet and to access Much higher Consciousness by means of religious process. A reader (a phrase which really is actually certainly not to me precisely detailed from just what our team do) is actually meant that can help you to aid yourself. Certainly not fill in your personal inner energies, insights or opinion through presenting you that you may do this on your own. A correct intuitive clairvoyant need to be actually used for advice and to give you plausible outcomes accordinged to the power that you are actually channeling during the time of your reading. You see, a forecast could change due to the fact that you have the power to transform that, specifically after somebody informs you they see a factor that will occur but which you possess the power to transform. This is actually particularly valuable when your expert observes a possible negative result to a condition. This resides in actuality a chance to alter that possibility through modifying your thinking, activity, response or even views regarding a scenario. Every dispute is actually only an option to balance energy based upon your notions as well as activities. Every result is actually certainly not necessarily pre-ordained and also fixed.Lots of people need to have assistance to discover their means when you are talking with a skilled, authentic reader, you level up extra probabilities in exercising your free of charge will to become at trigger in your life instead of being impacted by unmanageable circumstances. Strong profound insights right into your life can have a powerful result on your consciousness as well as produce the exact trait you really want, permission. That's a much proclaimed term these times, yet that is genuine. That is actually the journey that all hearts (whether they recognize it or otherwise) are actually relocating towards as our team take a trip the spin upwards to perfectness.Possessing claimed each one of that, what a clairvoyant could inform is actually varied. Initially, you need to develop exactly what sort of details you are actually looking for. Second, you need to discover the correct reader who can supply you along with this relevant information. Right now, certainly not all psychics are developed equivalent as well as this post presumes that you have done your research and also have actually established that you are collaborating with an expert and also honest expert.Know Your Telepathic - Various Psychics Possess Different Regions of ExperienceThere are actually some psychics available which assert to become ONE HUNDRED% correct, can inform all, understands all, that they are a psychic, a tool, an astrologist, crystal viewers, reiki master, and so on. I locate that psychics that claim to become every little thing to everyone, most likely are actually perhaps neither specialist neither reliable. Learn specifically just what your mystic performs best! Numerous expert psychics will certainly express you exactly what they could and also may refrain from doing. As an example, a channel could be a spiritual yet all psychics are actually not mediums. So if you are actually wanting to talk to a familied member who has intercrossed above, after that you need to look for a real clairvoyant tool. All psychics are actually NOT channels. Some psychics are telepathic (which means crystal clear observing) and possess goals. In my knowledge, I have chatted with many telepathic psychics who are actually undoubtedly able to "see" sights before, present or future. The very same opts for somebody that is actually compassionate that could "experience" yet another's emotions. Some psychics may do both, but some may do just one or more practice places quite possibly.Other Psychics Possess Other TechniquesWhether your reader is telepathic, clairaudient, empathic, telekinetic, a medium, utilizes clairvoyancy resources like Tarot card, Runes, I Ching, or even numerology and also astrology, the degree to which they can tell you certain information will definitely be based upon their knowledge in their designed, their skill, knowledge as well as organic presents. All these factors figure in in getting you exact telepathic information during your reading and you especially really want an individual which is actually well-informed if they are mosting likely to have the capacity to assist you based upon funneling off a higher arena. Some psychics make use of resources, some carry out certainly not. Relying on just how a reader employee uncovered their present as well as how they have actually practiced this, are going to calculate their skill level. I recollect seeing a course on tv where this clairvoyant really check out folks' buttocks (yes, their behinds). There were in fact folks presenting her their butts as well as she would read them. Go body. No person should ever before evaluate just what it is that links an individual along with greater consciousness. For some it may be actually the Tarot for others can be buttocks, however metaphysical gifts happened in all sizes and shapes, no pun meant. That is actually knowledge that must worry us. Clairvoyant proficiency is a specialty like anything else and also anyone finding clairvoyant suggestions must want an individual which has actually learnt their present to a certain degree to assist others along with it.Some Typical Risks to Look Out ForI have actually found via years of utilization psychics, clairvoyants, and so on that some can easily observe certain sorts of traits yet might not have the capacity to support you in all with exactly what that is actually that worries you. For occasion, you name someone which asserts to be clairvoyant and you like to know whether or not you are going to have a settlement along with your lover and also she views that you possess a new puppy and also you're putting on a yellow headscarf as well as you are actually blown away by this details. Wow, awesome. That is actually a gift for certain— to be able to perform that and also see that without seeing or recognizing the person. A lot of everyday individuals have clairvoyant presents but that does not necessarily produce all of them competent from helping you along with a significant situation in your lifestyle that needs concentrated help or even a person that is professional and also proficient and also trained in their designed at acquiring you true mystic solutions channeled off Much higher Awareness.Currently also though that specific clairvoyant had the capacity to view what you were using which you had a brand-new puppy carries out not indicate that they may find accurately as well as exceptionally the answers you find. Their potential might not be a suit for your worries. I have actually located that people who are actually surprised through only small, little bit of things like that tend to feel everything that clairvoyant states when actually their present is a present of seeing "You" physically and exactly what resides in your physical surroundings, which is actually a superb talent called small watching BUT is not an ability suit for your settlement inquiry or even your job concern. It deserves establishing as a technique for specific forms of readings. But the tendency to "feel" whatever from that aspect on is incredibly solid because to a novice applicant from psychic recommendations, this is outstanding good enough to induce you making the erroneous decision that this person could observe "every thing". Which is actually certainly not the situation often times over. So all this is to state, inquire the reader you may be contacting or consulting with to describe specifically just what their knowledge is and you bring in the resolve that this spiritual is the one for you.If a reader is actually empathic, they may "experience" one more's feelings/emotions. If a psychic is actually telepathic, they can easily recognize yet another's notions. If a spiritual is telepathic they could view recent, the present as well as the future by means of sights. If a psychic is clairaudient, they receive/hear details also seems in their thoughts. If a mystic is clairsentient, they could actually grab relevant information via physical experiences connected with you or even a person you are actually inquiring about. Remember that the capability amount of each practitioner is visiting vary and also this is actually an additional little of relevant information you would like to ask approximately. Just how much knowledge perform they have?All these potentials alone if inexperienced or even at the starting stages may not be capable to assist you yet when integrated along with instruction, expertise and also understanding, you may a possess a very most unique expertise along with a genuine intuitive consultant that can easily aid you in strong methods that will certainly aid you in your private empowerment, provide insightful response to your questions as well as plausible end results. Don't forget, outcomes are based upon the existing electricity that surrounds you at the moment of your reading and also undeniably can change. Lots of folks are under the wrong understanding that if it is actually indicated to be, at that point there is actually nothing at all you can easily do to alter a trait. There are without a doubt some things that happen in every life that are actually predestined to be as a result of particular preordained events that need to take location in the life for your spirit's development or in many, several situations, due to karmic financial obligations and the outcoming adjustment of imbalances created by misusage of certain energies in previous lifetimes. After that there are various other lifestyle experiences where totally free will goes to action and also that is your quite choice or activity that is the important things that is actually being examined. So a clairvoyant reading is actually certainly not implied to bypass knowledge considering that your soul will definitely undergo what that must to finish its "stopover" on this degree of existence, however a specialist clairvoyant analysis could assist you to determine that which is thwarting you or some aspect you appear to become missing out on and aid aim you in the best direction. Or even, your clairvoyant can identify a block or even a karmic pattern that you are having problem handling along with. Occasionally that is actually certainly not simply what Mama and Dad did to our company as little ones. Occasionally only to become independent is actually empowering in and from on its own. To end up being familiar with one thing significant via helped metaphysical powers may possess a difficult impact on an individual. Maybe that incredibly instant which comes to be a turning point in your life. The accurate mystic religious consultant has actually performed their work properly if they could help you thus. But they are actually certainly not an alternative to experience as well as a specialist, honest reader would certainly never ever aim to make you reliant on all of them.What a Psychic Should Certainly Not be actually Informing YouAlso, however, our team need to check out at, just what a psychic ought to not be actually informing you. A telepathic should certainly not be knowing you just what decisions making. Constantly have away off your analysis empowering factors that aid you to make your very own selections concerning your lifestyle. A moral and also responsible clairvoyant should never anticipate fatality. They should not propose doing streaks for you that are going to alter the training course of events or even another individual or even to negatively impact an additional's life supposedly for your benefit. Participating in this form of task will simply bring around unfavorable fate on you and this reader, and also the karmic repercussions might be wrecking. This is actually absolutely dishonest. A psychic ought to never inform you that they can help make one thing take place for you because that is actually patently incorrect. Nobody else could "produce" something take place for you considering that a mystic expert carries out certainly not have any sort of special powers to regulate your future or even others habits. Telepathic consultants are expect to be religious individuals that have decided to aid others using spiritually developed abilities but never ever deciding to utilize those abilities to enhance their very own pride, management another's will, or even make you psychologically reliant. Those styles are around. Be mindful of psychics which tell you that they will definitely must execute "power job" on you with long meditations at a great expense. If they tell you you have a negative block or even affliction this is a known spiritual con. If you experience a spiritual similar to this, even though they carry out seem to have psychic ability, do on your own a support as well as disconnect or even leave promptly.Therefore, know your psychic, possess a very clear concept of exactly what it is you should understand so you can create the greatest selection. Inquire your psychic reading what they focus on because no person provides services for every thing. Let them catch to just what they understand or even at which they are actually better doing. And also make certain that they possess training and expertise. There is actually absolutely nothing even worse in comparison to receiving a telepathic analysis off an individual who carries out certainly not understand just what they are doing regardless of whether they might possess a present that is pristine and also certainly not certified to one thing specific. Do your research, talk to the right concerns as well as discover the limits of a reader practitioner. No person however God is actually almighty as well as 100% correct. Overlook anybody that produces these types from cases. That is actually simply for the taken in and also unenlightened.

Health experts believe that good health starts in the gut, as it shields your immune system. At the same time, your gut is connected directly to your brain and its health is directly linked to your mood and hormones as well as your overall weight and health.
A compromised gut makes you more vulnerable to digestive issues (bloating, gas, diarrhea), food allergies or sensitivities, anxiety, depression, mood swings, irritability, skin problems (eczema, rosacea), diabetes, autoimmune diseases, frequent infections and also poor memory and concentration, attention-deficit disorder (ADD) or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Many things can affect your gut health, destroy beneficial gut flora and damage the intestinal barrier. Dietary imbalances, excess medication use, mineral deficiencies and even stress can change the balance of bacteria in your digestive tract.
Keeping your gut healthy is not a difficult task. It starts with some basic dietary and lifestyle changes. For gut health, you need to follow the four R's policy, which means:
- Remove the bad things that negatively affect the environment of the gut.
- Replace the bad with good things.
- Reinoculate, which means restoring beneficial bacteria to reestablish a healthy balance of good bacteria.
- Repair, which means providing the nutrients necessary to help the gut repair itself.
Here are the top 10 ways to heal your gut naturally.
1. Consume Probiotics
For improving gut health, including probiotics in your diet is an essential step.
Probiotics can help increase the levels of healthy bacteria in your gut, while also improving digestion and nutrient absorption. They also aid in diminishing bad bacteria levels in the body, which in turn supports the elimination of toxins.
A 2013 study published in Therapeutic Advances in Gastroenterology reports that probiotics work as preventive and therapeutic measures, in order to restore the healthy composition and functioning of the gut microbiome.
When it comes to probiotics, choose gluten-free options for optimal results. Some good sources are sauerkraut, miso, pickles, tempeh and kombucha. In addition, you can take a digestive enzyme with your probiotics to further aid digestion.
You can also take probiotic supplements, but only after consulting your doctor.
2. Drink Enough Water
People who don't drink enough water often suffer from digestive issues.
Water is essential for the digestive system to work properly. Water makes up about 60 percent of our bodies, and it aids in moving things along in your gastrointestinal (GI) tract and removing toxins through your urine and feces.
Water and other fluids help break down food, so that your body can absorb the nutrients. It also softens stools and helps maintain the body's pH balance.
As you lose vital fluids through sweating and urinating, it is important to supply your body with clean and safe water throughout the day.
If the taste of water is too bland and boring, you can add a little lemon juice or try different flavored waters.
Note: The amount of water you need each day depends upon many factors, including your health status. Consult your doctor regarding how much water you should drink in a day.
3. Eat Whole Foods
Whole foods are high in fiber, vitamins, minerals and water content, and should be high on your list of foods to eat to improve and maintain your gut health.
Eating fiber-rich foods can help remove toxins and keeps things moving through your system. This in turn protects your digestive tract from inflammation, injury and disease.
However, if you have digestive issues, eating too much fiber can hurt your digestive system and lead to bacterial overgrowth in your small intestine.
Aim to eat at least one vegetable with each meal. Some vegetables that are easy to digest are spinach, zucchini, squash, carrots, asparagus, celery, artichokes and kale.
Another important aspect of a healthy diet is to eat healthy fats that digest easily. Some good examples are coconut and coconut oil, fish or fish oil, olives, flaxseed and hemp seed.
Do not eat processed or fast foods, which are typically high in refined salt, sugar and processed oils.
4. Avoid Inflammatory Foods
When the gut is inflamed, it does not absorb nutrients and foods properly, and you feel fatigued and tired. Moreover, inflammation affects the digestion process, which definitely affects your gut health.
To curb overall inflammation, it is important to avoid inflammatory foods. Frequently consuming inflammatory foods can damage the cells in your gut tissue, called epithelial tissue, and promote intestinal permeability.
Some highly inflammatory foods that you need to avoid are corn, soy, highly processed vegetable oils, refined sugar, additives and preservatives (typically found in processed foods). Dairy, wheat and gluten can also contribute to inflammation in some people.
By eliminating these major inflammation-causing foods from your diet and replacing them with healthier alternatives, the inflammation in your GI tract will reduce gradually.
5. Reduce Your Stress Level
Food isn't the only source of inflammation in the body. A high stress level can impair your body's ability to regulate the inflammatory response, causing inflammation in the body including in the GI tract. In short, stress and inflammation affects your gut health.
Ongoing stress can negatively affect the healthy bacteria in your gut, and poor gut health can have a depressing effect on your entire system.
A 2011 study published in the Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology highlights the link between stress and gut health.
To manage stress, activities like meditation, breathing exercises, yoga, walking, listening to music and getting proper sleep can help a lot.
6. Drink Wheatgrass Juice before Meals
Being rich in potent phytonutrients and an alkalizing property, wheatgrass helps your body heal and nourish your gut in a natural way.
Due to its phenolic content and biologically active enzymes, as well as vitamin C, chlorophyll and phytochemicals, wheatgrass promotes detoxification and prevents the growth of harmful pathogens in the stomach.
Wheatgrass also helps restore alkalinity in the blood, which is important for the body's detoxification process. Moreover, wheatgrass restores and revitalizes your liver.
Alkalizing foods like wheatgrass help improve overall health and support well-being.
If you have access to wheatgrass, make fresh juice from it. Dilute 1 to 2 ounces of the juice in a glass of water or some fruit or vegetable juice and drink it 30 minutes before your meal. Do it twice daily. You can start with 1 ounce of the juice once or twice a day and gradually increase to 2 ounces twice a day.
If you don't have access to fresh wheatgrass, you can opt to take a quality supplement instead. Always consult your doctor before beginning any new supplements.
7. Switch to Ginger or Green Tea
If you are in the habit of drinking too much coffee in a day, it's time to mend this mistake. Coffee as well as other sources of caffeine can irritate the digestive system.
For a healthier gut, choose to have green tea or ginger tea instead.
Green tea is very good for your gut health. It contains wonderful micronutrients called polyphenols that help increase the good bacteria in your gut, as well as decreasing the bad. It also aids in fighting overall inflammation in the body.
It's well-known that ginger is good for digestive health. It relaxes the smooth muscles of the intestines, thereby relieving symptoms of gas and cramping. It also stimulates digestion by speeding up the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine. Plus, ginger stimulates saliva, bile and gastric enzymes to aid in digesting food.
Always drink decaffeinated green tea or ginger tea, two or three times a day.
8. Be Good to Your Liver
You can heal your digestive system by helping your liver work efficiently and effectively.
For liver health, nothing is more important than limiting your alcohol intake. Drinking too much alcohol heightens susceptibility for intestinal permeability, which can lead to leaky gut syndrome.
Alcohol contributes to a buildup of toxins in the body, which in turn can inhibit hormones in the gut that control inflammation. Also, the toxins prevent proper absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream.
A 2008 study published in Alcohol reports that excess alcohol intake can lead to an increase in intestinal permeability, due to endotoxin and subsequent injury to the liver and other organs.
As alcohol consumption clearly has the potential to jeopardize your gut health, it is best to avoid it completely or at least drink it only in moderation.
9. Get Enough Sleep
One of the most important factors for overcoming digestive problems is improving your quality of sleep. In fact, you may have noticed that when you don't get enough sleep, your digestion system also suffers.
The intestinal microbiome produces and releases many of the hormones that help regulate your mood and also promote quality sleep. In addition, hormones that affect digestion are influenced by how much sleep you are getting each day. Such hormones include cortisol, leptin, insulin, serotonin and melatonin.
For instance, melatonin is essential for a healthy sleep-wake cycle and also contributes to maintaining gut health. A deficiency in melatonin is linked to increased permeability of the gut.
Aim to get at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night. However, it is best to listen to your body and decide how much sleep is best for you.
To help you sleep, meditation, listening to soft music, a glass of warm milk before bedtime, a warm bath or even reading a book can help.
10. Do Some Form of Exercise
To heal your gut naturally, you need to get your body moving on a daily basis. Remember, your gut is a muscle that needs exercise to function properly.
A 2016 study published in Immunology and Cell Biology reports that exercise in your early years will create an environment with better balance between the microorganisms that live in your intestines. This is because shortly after being born, bacteria begin to colonize the intestinal tract.
Another 2016 study published in PLOS ONE suggests that exercise has a strong influence on gut integrity and host microbiome. This puts more emphasis on studies on the interactions between specific bacteria in the gut and its host.
For gut health, low-stress exercises like yoga, walking, light jogging and jumping on a rebounder are the best. Aim for at least 30 to 45 minutes of exercise each day.
You can also do intense exercise, but within limits as it can increase your cortisol levels too high or cause excessive stress on the body.
Additional Tips
- Good digestion starts in the mouth, hence you need to chew your food well.
- Eat little and often, instead of having two or three large meals in a day.
- Never take any medications without asking your doctor.
- A gentle detox on a regular basis can be a great way to reset your entire digestive system.
- Wash your fruits and vegetables thoroughly to remove all impurities and pesticide residue from the produce.
- Opt for organic produce.
- Eat plenty of fermentable fibers, such as sweet potatoes, yams and yucca.
- Treat any intestinal pathogens, such as parasites, that may be impairing your gut health.

What can I do for My Kidney Disease with Creatinine 2.722013-12-24 10:12
Patient: hi, doctor. I have kidney disease and my creatinine level is 2.72 mg/dl. I also have diabetes and hypertension, and my high blood sugar from 3 years, and hypertension from more than ten years. For my condition, what can I do for my kidney disease with creatinine 2.72?
Doctor: hi, I get your e-mail from my assistant. You have both diabetes and high blood pressure for so many years, then do you know the two diseases are the leading causes of kidney diseases. Both uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension persisted for a long time or many years may cause kidney damage. So patients with high blood pressure and high blood sugar should pay attention to their health and have regular tests on their kidney function.
You say you have kidney disease, but i don't know what kind of kidney diseases you get, maybe caused by your hypertension or diabetes? You should first get the basic cause of your kidney disease, then we can give you detailed suggestions for your kidney disease. You can send your test reports to email@example.com. I will give you personalized suggestions.
Your creatinine level is 2.72 mg/dl, and it is higher than the normal level 0.5-1.3 mg/dl, which means your kidney function is less than 50%. In this condition, you should have effective treatment to remedy your kidney disease. If you don't control your high creatinine level, your creatinine level will be higher and your kidney function will be reduced quickly. You will finally get into end stage kidney failure, in that condition you will have to live on dialysis or wait for a kidney transplant, which will make you live a poor life quality.
You should change your daily diet which will help for your illness condition. Keeping a kidney-friendly diet can protect your residual kidney function and control or remit your symptoms such as high blood pressure, proteinuria, blood urine and swelling. Here are some general dietary principles for you and other kidney disease patients, which contain:
- low-salt and low-sodium diet
- limit your protein intake
- limit your fluid intake
- limit high-potassium or phosphorus foods
- supply some vitamins and elements you lack
- eat less sugar
- eat some fruits and vegetables
- limit the meat intake
Besides, depending on your illness condition, you should also pay attention to some other details. You should know exactly about what can eat and what cant eat. All these attentions will be good for your illness. If you need, I can give you a personalized recipe for your illness depending on your test report.

Detroit and Civil War: The Limits of Patriotism
Willmarth, Mark D.
MetadataShow full item record
This paper is a study of Detroit's reaction to the Civil War. Originally I had planned to write only on the riot of 1863 in Detroit. However, as I read more and more, I realized that that incident could only be understood in the context of war-time politics. At the beginning of the war, Detroiters of both parties formed a consensus of opinion to support the war only in so far as its aim was to preserve the Union. However, the measures taken by the Lincoln administration, especially emancipation and suspension of habeas corpus, and the course of the war itself weakened that consensus because the aim of the war was changed. To Democrats it gradually seemed that far from preserving the Union, the aim of the war was to destroy the South's political power and way of life. Furthermore, it seemed as if the Lincoln administration and the Republicans were working to destroy the Democratic party and even free government itself. Based on my study, I see the dominant force in the United States at that time as nationalism, not defeatism. The war showed the strength of that force. This study of Detroit serves as a case in point.

He said that the 1971 film reflected upon the "glory of the superstar Rajesh Khanna". The film, which narrated story of a terminally ill man, who wishes to live life to the full before he dies, as told by his best friend, clocked 45 years of its existence on March 5.
He tweeted: "Its 45 years of 'Anand'! Amazement to be in it… in the reflected glory of the superstar Rajesh Khanna."

Kim Johnson of Homeboy Industries joins the podcast today to discuss digital marketing, social media fundraising campaigns, and how to lean into telling stories through great photography.
Adam: [00:08] Hi, welcome to the Good People, Good Marketing podcast, a podcast about digital marketing and how to make it better so the good people and good organizations can have good marketing as well. I'm your host, Adam Walker, co-founder of Sideways8, a digital marketing agency and 48in48, a nonprofit dedicated to hosting events that build forty-eight websites for forty-eight nonprofits in forty-eight hours.
[00:28] My guest on the show today is Kim Johnson. Kim is the Marketing Director at Homeboy Industries, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit that helps gang members and formerly incarcerated to be contributing members of their community. Kim is a scrappy marketer with a passion for rolling up her sleeves and developing teams to do the impossible. Over the last two years, she has taken the Homeboy Industries' nonprofit brand to new heights through gaining national press recognition and executing record-breaking fundraising campaigns. Kim, welcome to the show.
Kim: [00:57] Thanks so much for having me, Adam.
Adam: [01:02] I love the last line of your bio there. You're getting national press and record-breaking fundraising campaigns. I'm hoping some of those nuggets about how you did that are going to come out in our discussion today.
Kim: [01:15] Oh yeah, definitely. I'd love to share some of our best practices.
Adam: [01:20] I love it. I love the name. I love what you're doing. I think that's really important work, so thank you for doing what you're doing and thanks for being on the show. Let's go ahead and dive in. Question number one: related to digital marketing, can you tell us something that's working well for you?
Kim: [01:37] Just a little bit about the resources that I'm working with just to give a little bit of context. Our organization, we're thirty years old, and as you mentioned, we focus on serving folks who were formerly incarcerated or in gangs and helping to create a holistic environment where they can learn everything from workforce development to— We offer GED services, we have mental health services, but then also, we train them in one of our nine social enterprises. The organization has so many different facets and just one little marketing team, which is, as I mentioned, a little scrappy team of myself and I have a full-time marketing manager.
[02:30] One of the things that we have been good about working with our volunteers. A lot of the work that we're able to do is really built off of the generosity of volunteers, whether it be volunteer photographers or videographers. We have folks who also help us to manage our assets, to keep everything in order. We also have a lot of really good vendor partners that work with us and just the different demands that we have. One of the things over the past year, specifically regarding social media that's worked for us, is Facebook fundraising. I don't know if you've had folks talk about that.
Adam: [03:22] Not a lot. Give us the overview. I'd love to hear more about it.
Kim: [03:27] Facebook— Well, social media in general, has always been a hard nut to crack in regards to fundraising. Over the years, they've really helped for-profit companies figure out how to build their business, but they really made concerted efforts, specifically over 2018, to figure out how to help nonprofits. One of the things that they've developed are Facebook fundraisers, which I don't know if you've seen them, but basically, they offer people an opportunity specifically regarding their birthday, to divert gifts in honor of their birthday to an organization that they support.
Adam: [04:12] Yeah, I've done it before. I think it's actually surprisingly effective. I set some measly little goal that I thought was— I asked a couple a hundred bucks and I think my friends exceeded it by several hundred. It's actually a far more effective than I even expected.
Kim: [04:26] Yeah. And I think what's really helpful for the whole process is that Facebook's figured out how to allow an individual to stay within the Facebook experience and not have to leave it. A couple of years ago, we worked with an organization that tried to pair hashtags to fundraising and it wasn't a seamless experience. The individual would have to leave Facebook in order to complete the transaction, and I think that's why it struggled. Facebook has figured out how to keep it all within the same experience. Because of that, we, over the last year, have raised over, in 2018, really without much effort on our part, over $70,000.
Adam: [05:18] Wow.
Kim: [05:19] Yeah. Just by individuals, on their own, choosing to divert their fundraising or their birthday gifts to our organizations. So that has been huge. What we've tried to do is augment that. What we do is if someone creates a fundraiser, we will chime in and thank them like, "Hey, Jenny, this is so great. Thank you," or, "Hey, Ned, you're almost to your goal" or, "Hey, Trisha, you exceeded your goal. Thanks so much." We, as the organization, we interact with these individuals and that helps them to feel good and it also gives visibility to their supporters and they see that the organization is speaking with them. It helps the whole communication.
Adam: [06:15] Yeah, they can tell that you're engaged. If they're doing a fundraiser for you, the nonprofit, and they see you, the nonprofit are, are actively engaged in that fundraiser, obviously that's going to drive them to whole new heights to be more enthusiastic about it, push it out more, really help to reach those goals and exceed them.
Kim: [06:34] Completely. What's really cool is that Facebook allows the nonprofit to download unlimited amount of data, so if the individual who gave the gift, if they've set up parameters to allow their email address to be shared with the nonprofit, then we then are able to acknowledge that gift. Unfortunately, not everyone has really liberal privacy settings, but for the individuals that do, we're able to, as a nonprofit, thank them for their donation and integrate them into our communication stream.
Adam: [07:15] Oh, that's fantastic. Not only are you gaining access into supporters' networks, you're also gaining funding from those networks and potentially you're gaining data and additional supporters that you can then reach out to later on and hopefully engage with and get them to do even possible do their own fundraising.
Kim: [07:33] Yeah, exactly.Honestly, the best of all of this is that Facebook, at least for now, has waived any processing fees. Every dime the individual donates goes directly to us. That's a huge plus because most databases do take out a percentage when they're processing the gift. It's been a huge win for us.
Adam: [07:58] Wow. That's amazing. Yeah. I love that. I love that. Okay. That's a big one. You're one of the first people to talk about it, so I love it. I am familiar with it but I'm really glad you brought that up on the show. Question number two—a little less exciting—related to digital marketing, can you tell something that has not worked well that we can learn from?
Kim: [08:17] Well, it's funny because I actually sometimes find more fun in what doesn't work.
Adam: [08:24] Oh, good. That's good. This will be fun, then.
Kim: [08:28] One of the things, specifically regarding social media, I think as everyone knows, imagery matters. One of the things that we realized is that our photography really has to be, engaging Specifically, what we do is lean into telling the stories of the clients that we serve. One of the great things that we're able to tap into as a lot of the successes that the individuals we serve have.
[09:02] Even little milestones like someone who's getting their driver's license. They're forty years old, they've been incarcerated for fifteen years. They come out and they don't have a driver's license. Often, there are so many barriers. When they finally get it, we're able to capture an amazing engaging photo of them and almost in the vein of People of New York. Oh, Humans of New York.
Adam: [09:42] Yeah. You're right. Humans of New York. Of course.
Kim: [09:44] Yeah. We're able to tell the story and celebrate that milestone with the individual. We purposely choose an image that is very close up and the individual is looking into the camera and it's sort of like a head and a little bit of their torso. Those really engaging photos along with highlighting the words directly from the individual. Talking about their struggle and about their joy and what this milestone means to them. That really resonates because how we really like to think about everything is mobile first. We think about if you're scrolling with your left or right thumb, as you're waiting in a line and you see this image, we want it to really capture you. We want the text that goes along with it to really drive, to really draw into the individual who's receiving it.
Adam: [10:51]I love that. I love that. That's great
Kim: [10:54] That's been very helpful for us especially this idea of thinking of everything as mobile first because as you know, that's really how the majority of people are consuming their content.
Adam: [11:05] Oh, more and more every day. It's unbelievable. The statistics and how the growth of mobile just continues to dominate and even how more and more people just don't use laptops. Honestly, my wife for the longest time just did not use a laptop at all. Just did absolutely everything on her phone. For me as somebody that works on a laptop every day, that's just mind-boggling.
[11:29] Why would you not just pull out a laptop and just take care of this one thing. And she's like, "But my phone's right here. I'm already on it. I'm good to go." It's amazing to me how that's expanding and will continue to expand for sure.
Kim: [11:40] Yeah, definitely about meeting people out where they are. The one other thing I'll add about what didn't work for us is we realized that we need to focus on telling stories as opposed to anything else. As I mentioned these engaging stories and images really draw people in. But what we found is when we move away from that, when we try to maybe say, do something a little more commercial and tried to drive business to a social enterprise or try to do sort of a more overt fundraising ask, it's a little bit of a disconnect.
[12:21] We have to make sure that we incorporate stories and captivating imagery in everything that we do, even if it is maybe talking about one of our social enterprises. That's one thing that we found out is traditional marketing doesn't work. It has to be really integrated into who we are and how we tell the story of the people we serve.
Adam: [12:44] Yes. Story-based. I love that. I love that. You make a good point there. You can have marketing and materials around specific campaigns, but it's gotta be a story. It's got to have its roots in a story and then overflow into the broader campaign from there. If you try to go the other way around, it just doesn't seem to land very well from a non-profit perspective.
Kim: [13:06] Oh, completely. Yeah.
Adam: [13:08] That's great. Okay. Question number three—this one's fun—related to digital marketing, can you tell us something that you are excited about?
Kim: [13:17] Well, I'm super jazzed because just last week we launched our new website after about nine months of working and of really trying to lay out the foundation. We just launched our website last week. I'm excited to see what kind of activity that yields for increasing a lot of the different areas, fundraising, and integration into our work that's going to bring, so I'm really excited about that.
Adam: [13:49] Yeah, that's fantastic.
Kim: [13:52] Yeah. I would say also leaning more into Facebook fundraising and trying to figure out ways to augment that in 2019. That's one thing that I've tasked me and my team to doing is to finding new way to increase the effectiveness of that. One of the things we were thinking is creating a specific video to share with people who engage in fundraisers. Some sort of thank you video that we would write to anyone who has started a Facebook fundraiser. We're going to try to put that together.
Adam: [14:32] I love that.
Kim: [14:35] I think that could be impactful.
Adam: [14:38] I'm curious. On the Facebook fundraising side, you shared the number of dollars raised. Do you know by chance the number of people that actually did it that resulted in the seventy thousand?
Kim: [14:51] I don't have that data in front of me but it's definitely available. If I'm correct, I want to say the average gift was a lot higher than I thought. It was around $100.
Adam: [15:05] Wow. That's amazing.
Kim: [15:07] Yeah, and as I mentioned, we had engaged in some social media fundraising, specifically Facebook fundraising, a few years ago, and the average gift was maybe like $35. That's why I see lots of potential in trying to really engage with that.
Adam: [15:30] I love that. I love that. Well, Kim, this has been great. Let me see if I can recap our conversation so far so our listeners have a few takeaways.
[15:38] For question number one, related to digital marketing, what has worked well for you, you mentioned at first that you do a lot of work built around volunteers, so volunteer photographers, videographers, and good vendors and partners that help you to grow. And then in particular, you mentioned social media, Facebook fundraising, that personal fundraisers have really been a big deal. Those are fundraisers that are related to people's birthdays on Facebook. They've raised over $70,000 last year doing that. A big part of that effectiveness has been actively thanking people for creating fundraisers and encouraging them to either meet or exceed those goals. That also drives a little bit of additional data your way. A lot of times, you can capture that person's email address or contact information to reach out personally and thank them and then potentially add them to your communications list as well. That Facebook does at the moment wave processing fees so all the dollars are going directly to your non-profit, which is fantastic.
[16:35] For question number two, what has not worked well that we can learn from, you mentioned that you did learn that imagery on social media needs to be really, really well thought out and well done and in particular it needs to be engaging photos, people engaging with the camera, looking at the camera, really connecting with those heartstrings for people. You need to think mobile first. Meet people where they are as you're thinking about photos and content, always be thinking about the mobile-first approach and how that's going to work and focus on storytelling first. If you're trying to connect a broader campaign, you're trying to do a brand campaign or whatever, if you start with story, it's going to connect with people much better than if you do not start with the story.
[0]For number three, what are you excited about, you mentioned that you just launched your new website, so nine months of working on it and it is now live. I did take a very, very quick peek while we were talking and it looks amazing. Well done there. You're going to lean more into Facebook fundraising, which I think is fantastic and really, really smart. How was that summary? Did I miss anything? Is there anything you want to add?
Kim: [17:42] That was an amazing summary. I would like to add that Homeboy Industries, anyone can reach us at homeboyindustries.org. Additionally, we are on just about every social media platform and we'd love for folks to follow us particularly because a lot of times we're doing really innovative stuff on our social media. I'd love for folks to be able to check that out because we're always trying to push the envelope.
Adam: [18:13] Yeah. I would encourage our listeners to check out their website. It's very, very well done. It's worth a look. Check out the website for sure. Kim, this was really fantastic. Thanks so much for being on the show. I really enjoyed having you.
Kim: [18:25] Oh man, I had a great time. Hopefully, it will be able to help inspire other folks and I'd love to keep the conversation going with anyone who's listening because I think we can learn a lot from each other.
Adam: [18:37] I agree. Let's do it and I'll see if I can even book you again on another show in the future.
Kim: [18:42] Sounds good. Thanks for being here.
Adam: [18:46] Thanks for listening to the Good People, Good Marketing podcast.

In the middle of nowhere, they ran out of gas and asked for help from a big-eyed boy. The boy mimed there wasn't any gas left to pump and when they asked for food, this time he led them to his house. He built a fire out of pine cones, put on a teapot and came back with a tiny piece of cheese, which he then cut into microscopic portions before serving them.

We're Zach and Clay, and we cook recipes from monthly food magazines. 2011 » Pete Drinks One of my big beer obsessions is exploring the ever growing London brewing scene; the London Brewers page I maintain here isn't so much a public service as a 'to drink' list. Here, we pay our first visit to a brewpub – specifically, the Bull in Highgate which has the added benefit of being the brewery geographically closest to my house! The Bull has been there for a very long time, but it's only a matter of months since Dan Fox took the place over, refurbished it into a stylish space and somehow managed to cram a small, 2.5 barrel brewery – the London Brewing Company – into the corner of the kitchen. Ok, so it's not going to put Fullers out of business any time soon but despite the size they aim to keep four of their own brews on tap at any one time.

Rosslyn, A Waterfront Gateway Community
Rosslyn has gone through a whole lot of changes since the late 1700s. The waterfront community was once a place where colonial farmers would take their crops across the Potomac to sell in Georgetown. The ferry was the only means to get there at the time. Once those same farmers returned with cash in hand, they would face yet more obstacles—returning to their homes by way of Lee Highway while trying to avoid bandits who would lie in wait along the nefarious Dead Man's Hollow.
The building of the Aqueduct Bridge and canal crossing in 1843 allowed easier access than the old ferry boats. But even the designation as a gateway community has seen some shifts. Rosslyn was once known as the Gateway to Perdition due to its wild brothels and gambling halls. After a morals cleanup campaign in 1904, developers and local officials sought to make the waterfront a more residential-friendly place with a new catchphrase—Gateway to Virginia. That eventually changed again to Gateway to Arlington.
The arrival of trolley cars in the early 1900s added to the allure of residential development. The streetcars ran from Rosslyn out to Ballston at the time. Those trolleys went by the wayside around 1941, however. The late 1970s brought a new chapter with the modern Metrorail system. Rosslyn, Court House, Clarendon, Virginia Square and Ballston each have their own Metro station.
The 1960s and 1970s brought high-rises to Rosslyn. Given that the Washington DC heights restrictions don't apply in Arlington, developers began erecting office towers with spectacular views. Eventually, luxury condominiums began popping up. The latest chapter in the constant reshaping of Rosslyn is an effort to put more emphasis on residential development and less on office space. The streets will become more walk-friendly, and more shops, restaurants and greenspaces will add to the destination place vibe.
Residents at The Waterview live in a neighborhood with a colorful past, to say the least. But it's also a very modern community that continues to soar in popularity. From the waterfront to the trendy Rosslyn-Ballston Corridor with all its attractions, this is a great place to be.

Bookmarks: Throwing Muses
If you're anything like me, you'll have been hoping for a comprehensive guide to Throwing Muses' discography to reveal itself. It looks like there's been a great one on the web for a while:
CAD 2013 _Red Heaven_ produced by Throwing Muses with Stuart Boyer
1992 furious / firepile / dio / dirty water / stroll / pearl //
summer st / vic / backroad / the visit / dovey / rosetta stone
/ carnival wig
Leslie Langston plays bass. Bob Mould (ex Husker Du) sings on
"Dio". A bit less stunning on the songwriting front, but at least
it still proved that the band were still alive. Initial UK CDs

American carrier AT&T has announced that it will roll out its mobile 5G service in a dozen locations across the United States by the end of the year. The carrier identified parts of the cities of Atlanta, Dallas, and Waco as the first three locations that will receive mobile 5G networks. In addition to them, the company will also roll out the cellular technology to nine more locations in the U.S. which it's expected to name in the coming months. The company further noted that it will first deploy the mobile 5G technology on the mmWave spectrum. The mmWave spectrum allows the carrier to transmit data at increased speeds, although AT&T also stated the new technology will be commercialized in other bands from its spectrum portfolio in the future.
The carrier emphasized that it had already rolled out network technologies and base station equipment that will assist it in the deployment of 5G. Among the technologies that the carrier is currently deploying is a software-defined networking solution which allows a network to use software to perform functions previously conducted by hardware switches and other network components. The company started deploying the technology several years ago, and by the end of 2017, it had already virtualized 55-percent of its infrastructure. The firm aims to virtualize 75-percent of its network by 2020. The technology, AT&T claims, will allow it to deploy new network applications, including 5G, in a much faster manner. The carrier also aims to reduce the latency of its offerings by implementing a new edge computing model which places the processing of data closer to the subscribers. This solution can be implemented by deploying computing equipment comprised of graphics cards or other general-purpose computers near base stations or small cells.
The carrier also mentioned that it will open a new laboratory in Austin, Texas, where it intends to further test 5G devices and network equipment by simulating a broad range of real-world scenarios. The company will still be using its proprietary Advanced 5G NR Testbed System and an outdoor 5G testbed in order to experiment with the next generation of wireless networks and their applications going forward.
