Content: Many professional students want to start their own practice but lack the wisdom to proceed. This class is for you. Given 2 x's per year. Future date to be announced.
The class is designed to give an overview of the current attributes of being a professional in the Healing Arts. It will cover modes of advertising, comparison models of a Business set up. Legal issues with a practice. Location, and how to get and retain clients.

- Meditation: Guided meditation
- Clinical Experience: Hands on skills to develop cellular response to healing
These classes are offered on a professional advanced level and the student is expected to understand the energy field of the body and the etherical chakra levels of 1-10. We will be combining energy psychology and energy healing through the study and published material of many of today's leaders in the field of Quantum Physics, Spirituality and Energy Medicine.
We will have practicums to develop confidence in new advanced skills and modalities. Then we will integrate these new skills with previous teachings for your Advanced Spiritual Healer's tool box. We will continue study of the relationship of our energy field and the connection to all living creatures. How to work with the very high frequencies that have entered, and continue to enter, in vibration rays into our planet, for the Christ consciousness Grid. How to adapt our own bodies through the Merkaba, use of new skills to move out of the brain and into the loving heart of the 5th dimension. We need to understand the process, so we can function as healers and then how to bring stabilizing energy and balancing for our clients. CONTACT: email@example.com
Contact Pat, under the end tab, and let us know if you are a professional healer or holistic health coach.

Joel Limerick from Document Systems Inc. (DSI) talked about tool that can be deployed to manage records before they are retired. His company integrates document management tools into deskptop applications. Their content management system communicates with various browsers and repositories using Content Management Interoperability System (CMIS) compliance. CMIS also allows them access to entry templates based on document types, libraries and metadata. DSI utilizes a content navigator that allows for users to search and browse enterprise information when on a mobile platform.
Anthony Lewandowski from Implicate Order Consulting Group, LLC discussed Cloud as a computing platform. The first part of his presentation was a brief history of Cloud computing. Cloud will not affect extensibility, user requirement or business need. Where cloud will have a high impact is scalability and cost effectiveness. Most common cloud services are software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Transitioning to the cloud involves one of the three options 1)private/internal, 2)public/external or 3)hybrid. When the presentation is on the ARMA Metro MD website I would definitely recommend checking out the slide on "How the Different Cloud Attributes Relate".
Fred Diers is the head of GRM's new knowledge-based division and spoke on records retention, compliance and governance. Information is your organization's most important resource. Mismanaging it can lead to the following:
- Bad publicity
- Discrimination claims
- Product liability from customer complaints not being addressed
- Ruined business plans or mergers from information leaks
- Lost trade secrets from unauthorized information disclosures
- Privacy claims from stolen or misplaced data
Management demands greater information management due to:
- Tougher federal and state regulations
- Steep fines and penalties for failing to be in compliance.
- Increased exposure to litigation.
- Increased incidence of investigations.
To avoid Risk of Indictment two decisions are made related to compliance
- Keep all data, documents and records forever
- Implement a compliant and sustainable retention program
Both of these impact every and calls for change management to be done.
Governance enterprise rules involve the following:
- Records management policy
- Retention schedule
- Electronic messaging policy (including text)
- Hold order policy
- Orphan file policy (files in which the creator is no longer with the organization).
Governance Function rules include organization specific rules such as
- Inactive media policy
- Digital preservation plan
- HR personnel privacy policy
- Acquired or dissolved business unit retention policy
- Legacy data retention policy
When defining records management policy you must define life cycle of all information and not just denote records vs non-record.
Retention schedules that overuses permanent is a cop-out.
Slides 17-18 has credible program benefits for your RIM program and when the presentation is posted on the ARMA Metro MD site you definitely need to check it out as this will increase profit for your organization.
Tim Shinkle, a senior director for Gimmal and spoke on leveraging SharePoint for Records Management. His presentation started out as a history of content management and records technology.
Traditional RM/ECM solution failed to deliver proactive governance. It was never enterprise based due to low adoption. RM became a separate application and not a lifecycle step. Governance must be proactive to succeed and intuitive with the end-user in mind.
When SharePoint came along it had high adoption rate because of flexible solution, high ease of use and autonomy. Gimmal aims to leverage viral adoption of SharePoint and ensure all content in SharePoint has lifecycle applied to it. Findability is enhanced by Gimmal to aid e-discovery. You can check out the presentation when it is posted to ARMA Metro MD to see others whys Gimmal leverages SharePoint for records management.

But the truth is that he is tapping into a minority Islamic tradition with a wide following and a deep history." -Michael Doran, professor of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University What does Osama bin Laden want, and why does he want it? These questions can best be answered by studying the development of this tradition of Islamic extremism in the Middle East, especially since World War II. Although these fundamentalist groups preach a theology which values the earliest traditions of Islam, it remains nevertheless a very modern movement which has achieved broad popularity, especially among like-minded thinkers who have created what has become known as "Islamism." Many devout Muslims are aghast at the idea that their faith is being used to justify terrorism, yet they must understand that bin Laden and the people like him are not simply strange aberrations: they are, instead, a natural extension of extremist theology which has been in development since at least the 1930s, and in some cases well before that. Bin Laden's personal history can be easily found on the internet. Born to a rich Saudi family, he became in the 1980s the prime financier for an organization that recruited Muslims from mosques around the world for the war in Afghanistan. When he returned after the war, he founded an organization to aid that war's veterans, many of whom went on to fight elsewhere (like Bosnia) and/or comprised the basis of his al-Qaeda terrorist group. So what is it that bin Laden wants today? His basic argument is that Muslims in the Middle East are currently suffering from political, social and economic deprivation for the simple reason that their governments have not fully implemented shari'a , or Islamic law. Because their rulers have failed to do this, bin Laden no longer considers them to be truly Muslim. So, he would claim, rather than living in Islamic states, Muslims in the Middle East are really living in jahiliyya , an Arabic term used to describe pre-Islamic paganism, ignorance and barbarism. Muslims are forbidden to make war on each other, but they are allowed to make war on non-Muslims who are persecuting them - thus current rulers are made open to attack. But they aren't the only targets, because these leaders are not solely responsible for the current state of affairs. On the contrary, Muslims are victims of a centuries-long Crusade by Jews and Westerners which has been driven by the goal of undermining and eventually destroying Islam. They colonized Dar al-Islam (the House of Islam, those lands under Muslim administration), divided it up into nation-states, and even left people there to rule over the Holy City of Jerusalem (Israel). Some Westerners, including President Clinton, have argued that the West does not have problems with Islam but only with violent Islamist extremists. Fourteen hundred years of history demonstrate otherwise, especially to Islamic extremists. The relations between Islam and Christianity, both Orthodox and Western, have often been stormy. Each has been the other's Other. The twentieth-century conflict between liberal democracy and Marxist-Leninism is only a fleeting and superficial historical phenomenon compared with the continuing and deeply conflicted relation between Islam and Christianity. (Huntington, p. 209) This is not to say, of course, that this is a conflict simply against the religion of Islam. Western leaders are correct in that they have not launched an armed conflict against a religion. But Muslim leaders are correct in that an attack is being made against a cultural, historical and political civilization centered around the religion of Islam. Currently, Westerners are perceives as attempting to impose their own secular values which are at odds with fundamental and traditonal Islamic values and practices. They claim altruistic motives, but Muslims know the real purpose is to undermine their faith. Thus, the West must be resisted and attacked. Some think that because the West is the bigger enemy, it should be attacked first, whereas others believe that the local rulers, being the closer enemy, should be the top priority. Such would bin Laden argue, yet none of this originates with him. All reports indicate that he isn't much of an original thinker - he is neither a religious scholar nor a political philosopher. Instead, he has tapped into a fully-formed tradition which has given him all the ideological tools he needs to both explain current problems and offer a solution. Muslims in the Middle East can accept these arguments because the ground has already been prepared by centuries of development.

WA premier 'disappointed' with PM's visit
West Australian Premier Mark McGowan says he cannot put the prime minister in a "headlock" to get a better share of the GST revenue, but has vowed to maintain the political pressure.
WA receives the lowest share of GST revenue and the state government this week urged Canberra to intervene over new census figures downgrading WA's population it says could lead to another $1.9 billion drop in GST.
The premier said he was disappointed with Malcolm Turnbull's visit to WA this week and hoped the prime minister would have more to offer next time.
"I think if the prime minister knows what's good for himself he'll come back with major infrastructure and real action on GST," Mr McGowan told reporters on Friday.
"I can't get him in a headlock, I can't tackle him and hold him down until he gives us a better deal, but I can apply huge political pressure.
"I think that in some point and time will result in a breakthrough."
Mr Turnbull met with the premier on Wednesday and they had one public appearance together on Thursday.
He wrapped up his visit to the state - his first since February - in Broome on Friday and said he would return to WA "several times" this year.

The Obama administration set out last Friday across the nation to promote the High School Redesign Initiative. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan visited Aviation High School in Long Island City, New York, to highlight the success of the high school in an effort to promote transforming the way students are prepared for the workforce once they graduate.
Focusing on several changes — including mentorship, dual enrollment, and counseling for college — the administration hopes to align the goals of high school with the need to better prepare students for careers post-graduation, or the transition to college.
In his State of the Union address in February, President Obama highlighted his reasons for improving secondary education through the initiative:
"...I'm announcing a new challenge to redesign America's high schools so they better equip graduates for the demands of a high-tech economy... We'll reward schools that develop new partnerships with colleges and employers, and create classes that focus on science, technology, engineering and math."
The High School Redesign Initiative will offer several competitive grants to school districts that partner with local businesses, nonprofit organizations, and local colleges, among others, to develop opportunities for students to gain job experience and potentially career credit while in high school. Three hundred million dollars in grants have been set aside to spur mentorship and apprenticeship projects, and special consideration will be given to school districts who serve urban and rural students or any other disadvantaged groups.
The other part of the Initiative involves expanding and improving Career and Technical Education. The Obama administration wants to reauthorize the Perkins Career and Technical Education (CTE) program by allotting $1.1 billion to encourage states to align their education goals with the needs of employers and high-demand industries.
The Education Department has also proposed additional funding to academic achievement programs such as Upward Bound, GEAR, and TRIO, which reach out to low-income students to prepare them for college placement and post-secondary education.
With recent unemployment numbers revealing that people between the ages of 16 and 19 are sitting at a rate of 24 percent, the need to ensure youth can find gainful employment right out of high school is significant.
Duncan hopes these efforts are bolstered by success stories like Aviation High School. The high school trains students on Aviation Maintenance Technology by allowing students to gain hands on experience and earn certification so that by the time they graduate, students can either move into the workforce or enroll in college with course credits.
This initiative comes at a time when the administration is pushing states to completely turnaround current education models to move the nation's school systems into the 21st century. Starting with offering No Child Left Behind waivers in favor of the Common Core State Standards initiative, President Obama has worked to seize an opportunity to make America's workforce more competitive with emerging nations and economic powerhouses like India, China, and Japan, who are forging the way in engineering and technology production.
However, it is uncertain whether all of America's more than 24,000 high schools will be able to make the necessary changes considering many states are struggling to maintain adequate budgets in the face of an unwavering economic crisis, limited revenues, and lean budgets.

Rebecca Bonneteau N.D.
"The Eczema Expert"
Subscribe now to receive my top 10 tips to take control of eczema.
"No one has ever been able to tell me the things Rebecca has from ACROSS THE WORLD!!!"
L Novak, USA
Working with Rebecca has been a breath of fresh air in my foggy, sleepless world of dealing with children with eczema. I have an 18 and almost 4 year old that have had eczema since a few months old (and one child with perfect skin). Through countless hours... days... weeks of my life spent researching and going to doctor and specialist appointments, no one has ever been able to tell me the things Rebecca has from ACCROSS THE WORLD!!! Doctors have always just thrown different medicines my way and treated the symptoms. Even after traveling many hours to meet with a nutritionist/allergist combo for a 3 hour appointment, I left with only steroid and antihistamine recommendations and was told not to worry about anything with her diet. With Rebecca, after only completing a family history, 3 day food journal, and just one, 1 hour coaching call, she was able to show me the breakdown of her nutrients and show where she may be lacking or having too much and explained why all of this has started in the first place. She is making a living out of her passion and it truly shows! She isn't trying to sell us anything and she is not judging any decisions we have made. Vaccinated or unvaccinated, steroids or no steroids, Rebecca's motto is "no worries", we can deal with and reverse the effects of anything!
Rebecca was the answer to my prayers! She makes eczema make sense and helps us to see why each individual would experience different symptoms and find help in different ways. Fighting the eczema battle has been daunting and Rebecca has helped me feel HOPEFUL and completely changed my whole families mindset. She helped me to feel in control of what seemed to be uncontrollable! I no longer feel the need or guilt to buy into the latest thing someone is trying to sell me and am truly understanding the science behind chronic inflammation! I am forever grateful for finding Rebecca!

March 10, 2010 Public pension investments becoming more risky?
A number of public pension plans are shifting their investments…to more risky investments. Many private companies are becoming more safe with their investments, but many state governments are investing in more hedge funds or investing a higher percentage of assets in the stock market. Why? It is a double down strategy to gain back the large amounts lost in returns in 2008. States do not have enough money in their pensions to meet liabilities and the strategy is to play catch-up. Many of these states are assuming a 9.5% annual investment return on their stocks (good luck).

The tracks that Travis Stewart makes as Machinedrum are usually served up at a breakneck speed; the 150+ b.p.m. tempos he uses are just as dizzying as his constant output of new material. He can slow down when he wants to, though: lately he's been working with Jimmy Edgar as JETS, and their songs tend to amble more than sprint.
This mindset has bled over into Stewart's latest production for vocalist Rosie Lowe, on the subdued R&B slow-burner "Worry Bout Us." Stewart does pick up the tempo at times, seemingly too restless to just let a simple beat ride for multiple minutes. Instead he shifts the percussive tempo constantly, while letting Lowe's vocals drift overtop like smoke. According to Stewart, this rendition of "Worry Bout Us" is a dancefloor-friendly edit, to be followed by the official version in the coming weeks. Expect Lowe's next album to drop soon too, on Wolf Tone / Polydor.

LEGO Dimensions is no more, with the companies involved deciding not to expand the series any more. The current packs, both starters and expansions, will continue to be supported, but no new expansions will be produced. This means LEGO Dimensions fans are stuck with what they've got.
For the uninitiated, LEGO Dimensions is an infinitely expandable video game featuring characters and worlds from a number of famous franchises. You buy a Starter Pack LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack Review and Giveaway When downloadable content first became a thing, it seemed like we'd all move to the digital model and the physical gaming purchases would disappear. Instead, we're buying downloadable content with plastic toys. Read More , and can then buy expansion packs complete with minifigs which add new characters, missions, buildings, vehicles, and more.
Stuck Playing the Same Expansions
Unfortunately for anyone previously unaware of LEGO Dimensions but intrigued by the idea, its time is coming to an end, as the developers are calling it quits. The three companies involved in the development and production of LEGO Dimensions issued a statement via Twitter saying:
"Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, TT Games and The Lego Group would like to thank fans for their ongoing support of Lego Dimensions. After careful consideration, we will not be producing new expansion packs for the game beyond what is now available. We will continue to provide ongoing server and customer support for all Lego Dimensions packs. Existing packs will continue to work interchangeably and will remain available for purchase."
This is a kick in the teeth for fans of LEGO Dimensions, who will have built up quite a collection at this point. However, it looks as though there just wasn't enough interest in the myriad of weird and wonderful expansion packs Bored With Lego Dimensions? Time to Look at Expansion Packs! LEGO Dimensions is an amazing games with lots of variety! Find out how you can add even more with the game's many expansion packs. Read More to justify carrying on. Still, at least it outlived Disney Infinity.
All Good Things Must Come to an End
All good things must come to an end, and LEGO Dimensions is no exception. Still, with Warner Bros. et al promising to provide support for the foreseeable future, there's no need to abandon LEGO Dimensions quite yet. It just means you have no new expansion packs to look forward to playing.
Do you or your kids play LEGO Dimensions? If so, how do you feel about the decision to stop working on new expansions? Are you likely to carry on playing with the titles you have? Or are you likely to look around for something new? Please let us know in the comments below!

Weapon H #1
Writer: Greg Pak
Artists: Cory Smith & Marcus To

Letters: Joe Caramagna
Cover artists: Leinil Yu (regular)/Gustavo Duarte, Dale Keown, Adam Kubert and Skan
Editor: Wil Moss & Darren Shan
Publisher: Marvel Entertainment
Price: $4.99 US
Since Wolverine's debut in the late 1970s, he and the Hulk have seen their character histories intertwined, and their popularity is undeniable. So there's a certain logic to Marvel's decision to create a "new" character that blends both properties. However, I put "new" in quotation marks because there's little new to be found in this debut issue. If you're a fan of Wolverine or the Hulk or both, you've already read versions of this story — multiple versions — and it makes for a predictable and unengaging read. It might be something of interest to readers who are new to comics and have only a passing familiarity with Wolverine and the Hulk, but there doesn't seem to be enough new potential in this character concept to justify a story arc, let alone a new ongoing series.
A merc with a private military-security firm finds his life turned upside down after he takes an ethical stand against his employers, and it leads him to be experimented upon and transformed into Weapon H, imbued with the powers and abilities of both the Hulk and Wolverine. Presumed dead by the world and on the run from Weapon X, he tries to disappear, both to protect his family and anyone who might fall prey to the rage, power and razor-sharp claws his other self unleashes. A corrupt corporation learns of his existence and sets out to harness his power for its own.
The art here is solid and capable, and it conveys the size, strength and ferocity of the title character quite well. I think what was most striking about it was the very different take on the Wendigo, a monstrous character that's been connected to both the Hulk and Wolverine in the past, so his appearance here is fitting. There's something a little more alien and weird about his look here, and that makes it a little more unsettling and intimidating. Despite the contributions of two line artists for the interiors, the overall look was consistent throughout, and I was reminded of the style of Cary (Conan, X-O Manowar) Nord here.
As I read about Clay trying to hide from the world, trying to keep calm and avoid conflict, and about how he just can't bring himself to turn a blind eye to people in trouble, I really felt… bored. I've read this story so many times before. Marvel has done little to distinguish this new character from the two that inspired it. Clay is Bruce Banner, if Banner had been a trained soldier. He even looks like Banner. I suppose it's not fair to expect something new would arise from an amalgam of two old characters, but I thought the plot might aim for something a little different. The storytelling is straightforward and capable, but it also feels like it's following a very specific, familiar formula.
To be fair, there is one element here that one doesn't find in most Hulk or Wolverine stories: a family. Later in the issue, we catch up with Clay's wife and kids, who think he's dead. However, that plays out in a rather cliched manner as well, and then there's the hard-to-swallow coincidence that Clay's wife happens to work for the same corporation that's now hunting him (while being unaware of the connection). Drawing such a direct line between the corporation and its prey really seems like too easy a shortcut. 5/10

After the massive success they've had with 'No Promises', their latest single with Demi Lovato, American DJ trio, Cheat Codes are back with another banger. This time, they're teamed up with Cade on their new single 'Stay With You'. The track stays true to the EDM sound they've been gunning for with their previous singles, however, the group slow it down a little this time around giving fans something a little different. It's not as amazing as 'No Promises' which I am worried will hamper their mainstream transition but this is a grower and I've had it on repeat over the past few days.

We had a visitor come work on our farm last week. Jenny is a young woman I met at a farming conference last winter when I sat down at a table full of people I didn't know. Come to find out she is a childhood friend of Jonnah's and had been to our farm for Jesse and Jonnah's wedding in 2010 (yes, small world). She writes a blog and I enjoyed reading about her three day visit to our farm. It's great to get an outsiders perspective.
"I, as a new landowner in the planning stages of a farm operation, came to Vermont Valley to garner any advice, strategies and know-how that the Perkins' family has developed over the past two plus decades farming. A perfectly unpredictable reunion. What I learned from Jonnah, her mother-in-law Barb and the whole crew, I will take with me into all future endeavors. The biggest lesson being- if you invest in working your body, your body will work for you. We started our day at 6:30am sharp and by 8:00am we were finished harvesting more cucumber than I've ever seen in one place. We moved quickly on to tomatoes, finding the juiciest ripe little delicacies on the vine and brought them back to the pack shed. By 10:30am, we had washed hundreds of tomatoes, zucchini and cucumber and were ready to head out to the field again to harvest garlic until lunch time. The whole place is buoyed along by the fact that they will bring 1,000 families really good food this week and the next and the next. I consider myself a pretty fit person, but I was tired! It was hot, I shouldn't have been wearing pants, and the fifty-pound crates of vegetables were feeling heavy in my arms as I carried them from truck to pallet. I looked at the two women working with me, guiding me through the day, both smaller than I, not really breaking a sweat, skinny muscles and energy happily carrying them along. Abby, a kind agronomist and Vermont Valley employee looked at me and said, "you have your farm muscles already." I beamed with pride. At noon we took an hour lunch. Food had never tasted so good. By 1:00, I was ready for more work. It felt good to go to bed so physically tired that night. I imagine it's how we're all supposed to hit the pillow. It means eating a good dinner, passing on a second glass of wine, and sleeping by 9:00pm… or 10:00pm. A lot gets done when you live this way. I consider it really good news that our bodies are capable of so much if we treat them with love and respect. I made a pact with myself to try always to live in a way that my muscles are tired at night." Read the full essay – Go To Bed Tired

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently released new findings from the National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) showing that more than 3.6 million middle and high school students were current (past 30 day) e-cigarette users in 2018—an increase of more than 1.5 million students since this past year. According to the results published by Cullen et al in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, youth who use e-cigarettes also are using them more frequently and using flavored products more often than last year. The sharp rise in e-cigarette use has resulted in an increase in overall youth tobacco product use, reversing a decline seen in recent years, and is prompting a series of steps by the FDA to curb youth use trends.
Findings of the Survey
According to the findings, the number of U.S. high school students who reported being current e-cigarette users increased 78% between 2017 and 2018 to 3.05 million (or 20.8%). Numbers among middle school students rose 48% to 570,000 (or 4.9%). The study authors suggest the rise in e-cigarette use in the last year is likely due to the recent popularity of certain types of e-cigarettes, such as JUUL. The increased popularity of e-cigarettes among youth raises a number of other health concerns: risk of addiction to nicotine early on in life; potential harm from nicotine exposure to the developing adolescent brain; and exposure to chemicals associated with adverse health effects. In addition, research shows that, compared with nonusers, youth who use e-cigarettes are more likely to transition to conventional cigarettes.
The uptick in e-cigarette use has led overall tobacco product use to increase by 38% among high school students and by 29% among middle school students in the last year, reversing the positive decline seen over the last few years.
Additionally, the survey also shows that high school students who reported being current e-cigarette users also reported using the product more frequently. In the last year, the proportion of those using the product more regularly (on 20 or more of the past 30 days) increased from 20% to 27.7%. The 2018 NYTS also found that among high school e-cigarette users, there was a significant increase in current flavored e-cigarette use within the past year, from 60.9% to 67.8%. Research shows youth and young adults identify flavors as a primary reason for e-cigarette use. Additionally, there is evidence from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study indicating youth who first tried a flavored tobacco product have a higher likelihood of current tobacco use compared to those who first tried an unflavored product.
The study authors concluded, "Sustained implementation of proven population-based strategies, in coordination with the regulation of tobacco products by FDA, is key to reducing all forms of tobacco product use and initiation, including e-cigarettes, among U.S. youths."

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — More than 20 cats were seized from a home Monday in northwest Harris County after deputies said renters moved out and left the cats behind.
Deputies from Precinct 1 and Houston SPCA Animal Cruelty investigators were able to get inside the home in the 10000 block of Spring Place Drive after securing a warrant.
They found the cats, many just days old, with no food or water. At least one was found dead.
Investigators learned the renters moved out last Wednesday.
Criminal charges are pending.

I've always been against the hand of the state in private decisions and forcing a minimum wage is one of those interferences which has always grated. However, in a world where technology is raising productivity and reducing the demand for labour there ought to be a popular desire for everyone to have the ability to work for a living. And that means that if you work "full time" you can enjoy life. Well that is not the case if you are on minimum wage. In teh US, if you are on minimum wage you earn 36.0 percent below the poverty level and 62.7 percent less than median income. That is destabilising as well as seeming immoral.
There is also a case to be made for a minimum wage for stimulating the economy because when people have spending money, they spend it and that boosts the economy. And it is well known that distributions to people with less are spent, not saved, whereas rich people tend to hoard their capital.
It is a sad conundrum: We don't really want to legislate a minimum wage, but if people aren't getting a living wage even when they work full time and are employed by huge corporations, something has to be done to change it.
I can not afford to pay minimum wage for much of the work I do. It would be nice to employ a professional on the farm but the yield from the land does not compensate for the wage cost because people want machine produced food shipped from far away instead of locally grown, clean, zero-carbon food. So we scrape along, trying to protect nature and know that we can not afford to pay minimum wage. But if a big agro-industrial conglomerate is employing people, it ought to be humane and that means above the poverty level.
We know the whole system is going to have to change because business sense says: "put in more machines, which are cheap and efficient and you own them", while humane morality says "give people work on a living wage", the supply of which is dwindling fast. The gap between "have a lots" and everyone else is growing, but it should be shrinking.
Some truths from Barry Ritholtz in his article Taking a Closer Look at Fast Food Minimum Wages:
A full-time worker (40 hours a week) in the U.S. making minimum wage earns only $15,080 a year. For some context, median individual earnings are $40,404 a year (BLS), while the U.S. poverty level is $23,550 (HHS). Full-time minimum wage earners make 62.7 percent less than median income and are 36.0 percent below the poverty level. (The number you probably hear quoted most often is median household income at $51,017, according to the census. The minimum is 70.4 percent below that).
If the minimum wage had merely kept up with price inflation since 1968, it would currently be at $10.77. That is $22,401.60 per year, bringing wages closer to the poverty line. Beyond inflation, if it kept pace with productivity increases, it would be closer to $20 per hour; annual salary would be $41,600, higher than the U.S. median. And just for laughs, if the minimum wage kept up with the earnings of the top 1 percent, it would be higher than $22, or about $45,760.
What does all of this have to do with McDonald's and Wal-Mart? Plenty. As Bloomberg Businessweek reported earlier this year, net total public assistance to the fast-food industry is about $7 billion dollars. (This does not include future medical costs associated with diabetes or heart disease). If the minimum wage were suddenly raised to $15, it would drive fast-food prices 25 percent higher, adding a $1 to the cost of a Big Mac.
As the accompanying chart shows, employees of the industry receive more taxpayer aid than any other sector.

As soon as I began sharing information on my blog about IV Vitamin C and Liposomal Vitamin C – meaning 'high doses', I received an email telling me that this causes Kidney Stones.
I took a look at what a reputable establishment like the Mayo Clinic has to say about this. They do not say high dose vitamin C causes Kidney stones, but they do have a page of suggestions for people who maybe prone to kidney stones.
PRONE to Kidney Stones sound akin to saying someone is PRONE to gout attack. Not the same, yet both are exceedingly painful and can be life threatening. Just because someone is 'prone' to something does not mean every Tom, Dick or Mary is going to get it.
My Husband suffers Gout Attacks and yeast outbreaks. He does not smoke at all, and only has a beer occasionally (maybe one every couple of months). Because we do our very best to lead a healthy lifestyle, we prefer to discover the underlying cause of his attacks – and remove those factors, rather than relying on prescription drugs.
Through a series of observations we came to recognize that his gout attacks seem to come on after he has consumed substantial amounts of smoked salmon. If he only eats a small amount once in a while – no gout attack. He also suffers from a yeast infection after he has drunk a beer. So observations yield results, which we can choose to follow and learn from. Or we can ignore them and suffer the consequences.
So my Husband is PRONE to Gout and is Prone to Yeast Infections, but does that mean every person who consumes a beer once every few months or eats a dinner of smoked salmon is going to have a yeast infection or a gout attack? Of course not, and neither will every person who chooses to take health giving amounts of Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) develop kidney stones.
What causes kidney stones?
Doctors do not always know what causes a stone to form. While certain foods may promote stone formation in people who are susceptible, scientists do not believe that eating any specific food causes stones to form in people who are not susceptible.
A person with a family history of kidney stones may be more likely to develop stones. Urinary tract infections, kidney disorders such as cystic kidney diseases, and certain metabolic disorders such as hyperparathyroidism are also linked to stone formation.
In addition, more than 70 percent of people with a rare hereditary disease called renal tubular acidosis develop kidney stones.
Does Vitamin C cause Kidney Stones?
I decided to do some reading and present here some current research to either prove or disprove the case for Vitamin C and Kidney Stones.
The Vitamin C Foundation is a great source of information when you want facts and peer reviewed papers to point you in the right direction.
On the Blog, there is a conversation between BOB (questioner) and OWEN FONOROW (Orthomolecular Naturopath and Co-Founder of the Vitamin C Foundation).
Bob asked Owen, "My cardiologist was alarmed when I told him of the high dose of vitamin C I've been taking. He says it could cause kidney damage and strongly recommended against it. I haven't been able to find anything on the Web about this
Just curious as to your thoughts on this. I have no plans to quit taking my Pauling Therapy (as Heart Technology)."
To which Owen replied:
Medical Textbooks are Simply Wrong
The nicest thing we can say is that your cardiologist isn't making this up out of thin air. Medical textbooks actually list kidney damage (oxalate production) as a possible (theoretical) side effect of taking vitamin C!?!
Doctors are taught that vitamin C may cause kidney stones, and the hospitals are filled with cardiovascular patients.
This erroneous information is one reason Linus Pauling took an interest and began writing his books on vitamin C. HOW TO LIVE LONGER AND FEEL BETTER (1986) has a good treatment of the kidney stone issue.
Perhaps the best defence against such a charge is Dr. Thomas Levy's book Vitamin C, Infectious Diseases and Toxins (2002). I doubt your doctor would read it, but, Dr. Levy is also a lawyer. His book is written to be useful in court as a counter to much misinformation that is taught in medical schools.
There is a highly theoretical argument, but there have been no studies that have ever demonstrated the effect. In fact, Dr. Cathcart who has treated over 20,000 patients with high vitamin C has yet to see a single kidney stone and believes vitamin C is protective against stones. Also a recent study of 85,000 nurses showed no correlation between vitamin C and kidney stones (but did correlate low vitamin B6).
If you want to ruin your kidneys, take common over the counter NSAIDS without vitamin C.
The conversation is taken up by other blog members and is definitely worth reading. There are some great references listed for you to follow up on.
And others say:
No. The myth of the vitamin C-caused kidney stone is rivaled in popularity only by the Loch Ness Monster. A factoid-crazy medical media often overlooks the fact that William J. McCormick, M.D., demonstrated that vitamin C actually prevents the formation of kidney stones. He did so in 1946, when he published a paper on the subject. (8) His work was confirmed by University of Alabama professor of medicine Emanuel Cheraskin, M.D.. Dr. Cheraskin showed that vitamin C inhibits the formation of oxalate stones. (9)
Other research reports that: "Even though a certain part of oxalate in the urine derives from metabolized ascorbic acid, the intake of high doses of vitamin C does not increase the risk of calcium oxalate kidney stones. . . (I)n the large- scale Harvard Prospective Health Professional Follow-Up Study, those groups in the highest quintile of vitamin C intake (greater than 1,500 mg/day) had a lower risk of kidney stones than the groups in the lowest quintiles." (10)
Professor Balz Frei from Public Health Academy of American Harvard University said, "Vitamin C also known as ascorbic acid, is an important antioxidant in the human body, and is the necessary reactant of collagen synthesis, neurotransmitter, and carnitine and other substances."
Scientific researches have shown that less than 2000 mg of the daily intake dose of vitamin C is safe. Those adverse reactions that may be caused by large intake doses of vitamin C, including the increased formation of oxalate and kidney stones, the increased uric acid concentrations, excessive iron absorption, and decreased vitamin B12 levels and so on, after carrying out the detailed verification, have not been found sufficient evidences. While the side effects of vitamin C are mainly the gastrointestinal discomfort after taking large doses. "
Andrew Saul says: Ascorbate (the active ion in vitamin C) does increase the body's production of oxalate. Yet, in practice, vitamin C does not increase oxalate stone formation. Drs. Emanuel Cheraskin, Marshall Ringsdorf, Jr. and Emily Sisley explain in The Vitamin C Connection (1983) that acidic urine or slightly acidic urine reduces the UNION of calcium and oxalate, reducing the possibility of stones. "Vitamin C in the urine tends to bind calcium and decrease its free form. This means less chance of calcium's separating out as calcium oxalate (stones)." (page 213) Also, the diuretic effect of vitamin C reduces the static conditions necessary for stone formation in general. Fast moving rivers deposit little silt.
Furthermore, you can avoid excessive oxalates by not eating (much) rhubarb, spinach, or chocolate. If a doctor thinks that a person is especially prone to forming oxalate stones, that person should read the suggestions (on web site) below before abandoning the benefits of vitamin C.
By Steve Hickey, PhD and Hilary Roberts, PhD.
(OMNS) It is strange how some medical authors seem desperate to show that vitamin C causes harm. One recurrent scare story is that vitamin C might cause kidney stones. However, although such warnings pop up regularly, these reports do not demonstrate an increase in the number or size of stones; instead, they rely on vague indicators of improbable risk.
The authors of such uncritical papers have probably not read the literature, for this is an old story. Decades ago, the idea that vitamin C causes kidney stones formed part of the medical attack on Linus Pauling. While it was initially a reasonable hypothesis, unexpected kidney stones are not found in people taking large amounts of vitamin C. (1,2)
There is no evidence that vitamin C causes kidney stones. Indeed, in some cases, high doses may be curative. (3) A recent, large-scale, prospective study followed 85,557 women for 14 years and found no evidence that vitamin C causes kidney stones. (4) There was no difference in the occurrence of stones between people taking less than 250 milligrams per day and those taking 1.5 grams or more. This study was a follow up of an earlier study on 45,251 men. This earlier study indicated that doses of vitamin C above 1.5 grams reduce the risk of kidney stones. (5) The authors of these large studies stated that restriction of higher doses of vitamin C because of the possibility of kidney stones is unwarranted.
People with recurrent stone formation may have an unusual biochemistry, leading to increased production of oxalate from vitamin C. (6) Oxalate and urate can accumulate in kidney stones. In practice, there is an increased excretion of both oxalate and urate with gram level doses of vitamin C (ascorbate). Various authors over the years have used this increase to predict that vitamin C will cause kidney stones; however, these predictions have never been confirmed.
To sum up folks, do your own research before you jump on the band wagon and spread misinformation. I too like to know the pro's and con's, but when you consider MSM (main stream medicine) has been trying to discredit Vitamin C for eon's, you must realise they have an axe to grind, and it is not because this Vitamin is toxic and dangerous. It is because this vitamin is inexpensive, non toxic and has wonderful healing properties. Compared to patented medicines being pushed by the pharmaceutical interests you can save yourself thousands of dollars annually. I read somewhere (lost the link, sorry) that compared to pharmaceutical interventions, Ascorbic Acid will cost you approximately $20.00 per year to maintain and restore your health. Sounds good to me!
(source) Here is a well-reported case of intravenous Vitamin C saving a man dying from viral pneumonia (swine flu) : visit article or archived screenshot here. It is interesting to note that the doctors were reluctant to use this treatment, and later even wanted to stop it even though the patient was recovering quickly. Stopping the Vitamin C therapy caused the patient's condition to deteriorate again, and his family members had to convince the doctors to resume this treatment, leading to his full recovery. What is wrong with these doctors?
Vitamin C is definitely safe, as it is a water-soluble vitamin and the body gets rid of any excess that it doesn't need.
Why are they banning intravenous (injectable) Vitamin C when the evidence, from medical sources, shows that it actually works in treating cancer tumors, and safely too? Is it because it is a vitamin and not a drug? Could Mike Adams be right, in that Vitamin C cannot be patented and is therefore a threat to Big Pharma's profits? The dots definitely connect in this direction.
An update of the situation is here (archived screenshot, Jan 11 2011). "The FDA has gone through an internal process whereby they determined injectable vitamin C to be an unapproved drug."
