1 body, 1 life, 1 future
Everything you eat, think, do -or don't do- defines how you will feel and look like tomorrow. You are the results of your actions... and non-actions. You may think that you still have time right now, you're young enough to bounce back from bad habits, eating crap, neglecting self-care. But if you're living the typical day of a busy professional day after day, year after year, you'll run out of time at some point. The numbers aren't lying: 50% of the adult world population is suffering from 1 or more chronic diseases. Are you waiting for your crash to start changing things, like I once did? Just imagine that moment when you'll start bumping into the limits of your health...
WHAT would you WISH YOU HAD START DOING TODAY?
why wait with feeling great when you can look & feel like 1.$$$.$$$ right now?
Self-mastery is more than taking care of yourself when it feels convenient or when you finally have an open window of 30 minutes.
self-mastery is about...
having clarity, vision, direction
defining values to go the extra mile for
gathering the knowledge to do it right
creating lasting change with purpose
changing habits and routines
planning, organising, smart systems
owning the skills for fun and effectiveness
enabling the timeframe with ease
creating continuity
feeling supported every step of the way
Having a community, a buddy, a partner in crime
being inspired, motivated, stimulated
living a healthy, sustainable lifestyle by default
generating and sustaining quality energy to do all that
Fit, happy & rich lifestyle mastermind
a 12 month membership
... is designed for you to...
✗ design and live your ideal long-term vision
✗ build your knowledge base for (self)-awareness
✗ teach you the nitty gritty stuff and skills
✗ help you set up health support systems for wellness
✗ empower you to commit to yourself, every day
✗ BRING YOUR LEADERSHIP and life TO THE NEXT LEVEL
✗ surround you with like minded experts, wired like you
✗ keep you accountable in an elegant way
✗ become the person and leader you love being the most
My mission throughout our curriculum is: not giving you more work. It's: looking at how we can relieve you from what you experience as "too much" in your attempts to live healthy. My purpose is that you can create a smooth flow of self-care systems that work and are doable within your limited timeframe.
We focus on 1 theme a month to build your foundation of knowledge and skill set, guiding you step-by-step towards the big picture.
Each month we...
Envision what your next personal focus is within the theme we're working on
Eliminate 1 food group, habit or routine that claims your energy and mental clarity
Embrace the alternative that will make you drop weight and feel vibrant
Empower you with new insights and experiences to make small changes that count
Having personal access to your mentor in various ways is key in exponential growth. I believe in the personal touch that makes difference. Every month we'll be sitting together for a live virtual masterclass with in depth training where you also have a chance to ask your questions. And you'll absolutely love our monthly juicy chat pause where you can pop in when you want to share some wins, thoughts or whatever that came up for you and we can help you with. If you want to level it up to one one one access to me, that's possible too. Choose the formula which offers you a monthly coaching session and I'll mentor you in private via the phone or Skype. Your success matters to me.
You know by now that you are what you eat, think and do. But the player with most influence on your behaviour and actions when it comes down to creating lasting results, is -believe it or not- your environment.
You are who you know.
Who do you spend most of your time with? How supportive are they in your healthy choices? How do they lift you up or drag you down? Having a community around you of like wired people makes you go the extra mile, every mile. Because here's what it comes down to...
no one succeeds alone
The best among us already know: success never comes without failure. That's why successful people build a team that keeps them on track, pushes them through, brings out the best in them and supports them every step of the way.
Serena Williams wouldn't be the best without her professional team of personal trainers, coaches, mentors, nutritionists (by the way, did you know that she performs on a living plant based diet? No seriously, she does!), her personal raw food chef on the road.
Success comes with the input, support, strategies, tools, tactics, empowerment of those who you surround yourself with. And that can be good or bad. Meaning: who you surround yourself with and are influenced by defines your levels of determination, flow, strength, success.
who is this for?
Especially when you're busy and don't "have the time" (for BS), you know that you need to do "something" to turn the wheel but don't know what or how or where to start, when you are an eternal student, you love learning new things, you get excited by the thought that you can take your health into your own hands easily and get back in the driver's seat (where you belong), you love taking action and playing around with new strategies, tools and tactics, you want to replace draining habits by healthy ones, when you want to create consistency in your results...
will FIT IN PERFECTLY AND I'M YOUR GIRL!

Beware of your vocabulary
Last night some associates and I were bemoaning the proliferation of obfuscation instigated by the intentional propagation of technical jargon in modern-day communication.
Or rather—to phrase it more clearly and accurately—we were complaining about the overuse of business doublespeak. I see this in two forms on the web.
Some writers choose to muddy their messages by peppering their sentences with big words. While these words may demonstrate the writer's vast vocabulary, they can often confuse the reader, particularly if these words are less accurate than their smaller, yet equally powerful counterparts. Another issue that concerns me is the appropriate use of specialized vocabulary. That is what I'll be discussing today.
What is specialized vocabulary?
When I refer to specialized vocabulary, I refer to the language of a particular field of study or skill set. For example, if you already have a certain skill set, or at least some of that skill's pertinent vocabulary, you will know the answer to the following question.
Assuming that you and I are in the same physical location, and I ask you to "loosen the cunningham and move your weight to leeward," where are we and why should you do this? Click on the photo or caption to learn the answer.
|In a factory
|On a sailboat
|At the gym
If you weren't already familiar with those terms I might as well have asked you to "flugen mir zu the moon sur une giant magic fromagecake. Either way you won't know how to respond, because as far as you can tell, it's gibberish. But if you did know those terms then you succeeded in loosening the tension* on the forward edge of the mainsail and went to sit on the other side of the boat.
In the case of sailing, or almost any endeavor, your knowledge of the appropriate vocabulary is part of your expertise. A non-sailor can actively participate in a leisurely afternoon sail. The skipper can ask this person to pull on a certain colored line, point to a piece of equipment, and explain how to use it. But in bad weather or during a race, the time spent explaining things can jeopardize one's safety or one's position in the race—then a more experienced sailor is preferred.
Whether you are a theoretical physicist, a computer programmer, or an avid baseball fan, you have a specialized vocabulary—in fact you probably have many different specialized vocabularies. This vocabulary affects not only how you pursue your endeavor, but also how you communicate about it. If you are submitting a research paper to a peer-reviewed journal you will need to use this vocabulary to explain your results. If you are explaining your job to your five-year old daughter, that same vocabulary will produce confusion and frustration.
Match your vocabulary to your audience
What if you aren't writing to an audience of your peers? In that case a certain amount of translation is in order. Our faculty do this regularly in the classroom. When you have expertise in subject X, you share that knowledge in small digestible bites. Students aren't required to know all of the vocabulary before taking the course because that is part of what you are teaching them. Going back to the sailing example, I try to remember the time when I didn't know the difference between windward and leeward. I try to keep that memory fresh in my mind so that I can explain the concept in a manner that is easy to comprehend.
We can apply the same principle when writing for the Web. If I'm creating a Web site, I need to consider who my audience is, how much they already know, how much they want to know, and why they might need the information. For example if you were creating a site about fuel cells your audience could be made up of fellow fuel cell researchers, journalists, government agencies, students (of all ages), manufacturers, foundations, etc.
If one of your goals is to clear up public misinformation about fuel cells and the hydrogen economy, you will try to explain these matters using less technical jargon. You might also focus on more general issues—regarding fuel cells—so that you don't give them more information than they need. You might also supplement the text with illustrations that an interested lay person can understand. If you rely too heavily on your specialized vocabulary then the public will remain as confused as they were originally. This doesn't mean that you must "dumb it down" so that a three-year old will comprehend, only that you must make it clear to someone who is obviously interested in the topic—why else would they be at your Web site—but who will not have the same depth of knowledge as do you.
By matching your vocabulary, and writing style to your audience, you will leave them with a greater understanding of the topic and greater respect for your expertise.

TrackbacksTrackback URL for this entry is: Beware of your vocabulary
Good stuff. Sometimes we are surrounded by so many of our peers that it is hard to even recognize which words are jargon and which are not. There lies the challenge.
Excellent point. I think we sometimes are so familiar with something that we take it for granted that others should be too.
I think we also have to be careful with contextual usage. For example the term "conversion rate" will mean different things to different people. To a salesperson it means converting an inquiry into an actual sale. To a chemist it involves a chemical process.
Many, many years ago, British humorist Spike Milligan wrote a book called The Art of Coarse Sailing (one is a series of books involving different pastimes) and said that a coarse sailor is someone who fancies himself a sailor but, when faced with a sailing crisis, forgets all nautical language and yells "For God's sake, turn left!"
This has little to do with your post. The word leeward just triggered this memory.
I think I've actually seen some examples of that—usually when multiple boats are competing for space in a tight channel.
Of course there is a far more important reason to remember the term. If someone starts turning green around the gills, he or she is usually told, "If you are going to be sick, make sure you do it to leeward." After vomiting into the wind and enduring the splashback, the lesson is not easily forgotten!
Ah! ... The art of Course Sailing ... I'ed love to get hold of a copy. Any unwanted copies out there?
"For God's sake, turn left!"
I think that happens every so often, you see the most experianced sailor deperate turning to normal language to make the non understanding passenger understand, it does not always have to be out of pure inexperiance.
Sorry, this blog went off topic here dident it?
After readin your post a second time I came to realize one thing, The languageyou use in the first sentence is not even understandeble to me being non english, but the easier explanation after it is and this made me think of your later example, someone building a website. The language used to build a website would be "universal", say HTML, meaning it would be the same no matter where the participants in the discussion come from, while in your other example about sailing, each language has its own vocabulary for diffent sailing terms. it might be very easy to shoot "loose the cunningham" but you might have an ever so experianced sailor onboard who is not english, he might acutally not get it as fast as he should. When you look at some teams who race Dragons (an international sail boat type) you find mixed crews sometimes, and after they have trained and raced togheter for a while you find them developing there very own language some times, it would not have much mening to others, but it fills a function, fast and effective, and this has to be the main point in any discussion. Use the right language no matter in what situation you are.
Thx for the time.
Tom and Classicyachting make excellent points. When we speak, we typically try to use the language that will be most meaningful to our listeners. If that means saying "left" instead of "port" while sailing, or coming up with an agreed upon shared word for a team that speaks different languages, so be it.
We can do the same when we write for the Web. If word X is more exact, but word Y will be understood by a larger portion of your reading audience, then use Y. What comes to us naturally in conversation can, with some thought, also be applied to our writing.
This also serves to remind us that the first W in WWW stands for World. Many of our readers, such as the last commenter did not grow up speaking English. If we're writing in English but are trying to reach a global readership, it is especially important to keep things simple. This doesn't mean we must dumb it down, only that we should stick to core vocabulary, that which is more likely to be learned by foreign speakers, and avoid topically technical terminology.
Excellent point of keeping the language or core vocabulary targeted to the majority as there are more people that don't speak the dominant language learning.
Perhaps I'm a little of target here but I'm assuming this site is related to web development and one of the most important aspects on any home webpage is the compelling and captivating heading to draw the reader into the copy.
Am I missing the point?
Anyway since learning how to implement good old method of compelling sales copy I've increased sales and lists on every one of my websites and can't complain.
My best to all.
Pretty much what I wanted to read. In fact, specialized vocabulary building is important for students who wish to get into a particular field. There are some tips to build your vocabulary I would like to point you readers to:

I hate the way that Rottweilers, Doberman, and Pit bulls are portrayed on commercials, movies, tv shows, and music videos. Except for pit bulls, the Rottweiler and the Doberman make great guard dogs, but is that all that they have to show about them on tv? Is that what people only think their good for? And now unfortunately to television and the media they fear them. People don't see the good in them, they are extremely loyal, and very loving dogs. I never judge or have judged a dog before getting to know them first, and this is what tv has done to these dogs reputation, people just assume. I know that a Rottweiler can be mean and same as a Doberman, however they are natural watch dogs, but any dog can bite, kill, and attack. It doesn't matter what breed it is. It pretty much depends on how they are raised, how they are bread, and if they are bread to be natural watch dogs. This doesn't mean we can go ahead and just assume that these dogs are mean and vicious. And like the pit bull, people are trying to ban them too, which is not right at all. Save these wonderful dogs from extinction!

The Great Pit Ball!

2 years ago, March 2009 an amazing function and funraiser was held in Las Vegas too help raise money for Villalobos Rescue Center (posted about the rescue May 2nd) Brandon Bond, tattoo artist, derector, pit bull advocate, hosted the event. They featured a silent auction, movie premire, rock concert, and gormet cuisine. The premire of the movie was directed and made by Bradon Bond himself called " Vicktory To The Underdog: Hell And Back" its a documentry about the misconceptions people have and make about pit bulls, and all the proceeds that were made were donated too help save the pit bulls at Villalobos. They handed Tia Maria Torres ( owner of Villalobos) a check for $25,000 and they are still porcessing donations! Congrats!

text: Why is it that some people refuse to put a grounding probe in their aquarium? I've seen many arguments against using them, some of which are based on what I believe to be bad information. I want to make the case for why every aquarium should have a grounding probe installed. We have these beautiful aquariums full of salt water into which we place electrically operated equipment. Everyone has heard the phrase "Water and electricity don't mix" and it is especially true of salt water. Yet this doesn't have to be dangerous and a ground probe is key to making this safe. An electrical shock occurs when current flows through a person. There are three main factors that impact the severity of the shock. The amount of current flowing through the person, the length of time they are being shocked, and the path the current takes through the body. For a shock to occur a person must be touching an energized conductor and a source to ground. The glass and acrylic most aquariums are made from are excellent insulators. If a pump or heater develops a fault in the salt water, it will raise all of the water in the aquarium to the same voltage as is available at the fault, typically close to 115V. If you are touching the metal housing of a light fixture or standing on wet concrete and touch the water, you become the best path for the current to take to get to ground. These shocks are most likely to take the most dangerous path, which is through our heart. It will go into the hand, through the heart, and either out the opposite hand or down through our legs. This is one way the ground probe keeps us safe. Electricity always takes the lowest resistance path to ground. The human body does have some resistance so a properly maintained ground plug will always offer a lower resistance path to ground. I would also make the argument that the use of a ground plug is important to the health of our marine fish, but not because of a risk of electrical shock. Scientists use electro-fishing techniques to collect or count fish populations by shocking fish. Electric eels hunt prey by shocking them with electricity. So why do I say marine fish are not at risk for being shocked? They live in salt water. Electric eels are a fresh water species and electro-fishing only works fresh water. In a fresh water environment the fish is more conductive than the water just like people are more conductive than air. You cannot shock a marine fish while it is in salt water since the water is more conductive than the fish. This doesn't mean that marine fish aren't affected by electricity. It is a generalization to say that all of the salt water is at the same voltage in our aquariums. In reality, small differences in potential can exist within the water. Eddy currents of water will cause a difference in voltage. There will be a difference in potential caused by any air bubbles that may touch a fish. While these may not cause shocks, it can cause a serious irritation across the surface of the fish. I would also point out that you do not need to have an electrical fault to have a harmful voltage in your aquarium. Any energized cord either running in the water or along the outside of the tank will create a voltage in the tank using a process called induction. This is why many people see a voltage in their aquariums without having a GFCI breaker trip. A ground probe will prevent any voltage from building up in the aquarium water, protecting our fish from these small voltage differences. Grounding probes also protect our tank from another problem that is much harder to see and correct. If you have an electrical fault in your tank, there is a high probability that you have exposed copper in your system. This copper will corrode in salt water and the corrosion is accelerated when impacted by electricity. Even if you use a GFCI, the circuit will not trip on a fault until you have a source to ground. A ground probe will immediately provide that path to ground. If you do not have a ground probe installed, you could be leaching copper into your system for days or longer until a path to ground from your water is established. The one argument against using ground probes I cannot counter is that it could provide a heat source during an electrical fault. If you have an electrical fault in a very narrow resistance range, and do not use GFCI protection, it can act like a heater. I know I wouldn't risk the safety of my family and friends in an effort to avoid this one scenario. I hope after reading this you won't either.

Private Courtroom for Businesses
For business litigants, the private courtroom offers the efficiency and privacy of traditional arbitration while allowing the litigants to put forth their best evidence and arguments in a courtroom setting. This is particularly beneficial in high-stakes, complex matters where the litigants want to decide their case before an experienced judge who maintains the rules and decorum of a formal court. Because all court records in Georgia are public and available to inspection by individuals or the press, the private courtroom may also limit exposure of sensitive information that may follow resolution of the matter in a traditional courtroom.

If you stop and ask any business owner what one of the most important things are in his or her business oriented life, you would hear the answer as their office environment. Naturally we all know that all businesses regardless of big or small have one or more offices that their let their employees go to and work in. A good office is important because it creates the most perfect work environment. If you were working under a certain business and you were not given an adequate place to work at, then you would not be able to unleash your full potential and be productive in the manner that you want to be. To prevent your loyal employees from working in an uncomfortable and also inappropriate working environment, you have to make sure to rent an office out so everyone can peacefully co-exist and work. But did you know that you are able to rent out offices that are already serviced?
You can easily move in whenever you are ready
If you have ever been part of an office relocation you would know just how messy, hectic and stressful it can get. You have to design the office, go through fit outs to make the office suitable, make sure the equipment is moved in etc so that finally, when you and your employees have to move in to it, you are already fully drained. With proper serviced offices for rent, since everything is already settled for you, all you have to do is simply let your employees move in when they are ready!
You only pay for what you want to use
A lot of professional business owners end up buying a large property that spend months working on to make it perfect enough for the employees to use, but they might not even be using up everything in the building! But with an office space Sydney that is already serviced for you, you only have to pay for what you need and what you use. This is a great opportunity for any small business too because it gives them a chance to save a large amount of money that would otherwise be spent on the office building purchase.
The facilities would be of great quality
Once you find a service that would allow you hire an office for your business, you will realize that the services and the facilities that they have for you are of great quality. From quick showers to the perfect working environment, it will be perfect for you and your employees.

编者按: 选择去国外留学的学生经常会面临许多关系自己未来人生的选择难题,其中最基本的莫过于专业选择的问题。因为迷茫,所以他们只愿意相信名校;因为不自信,所以他们只愿意相信最热门的专业,他们做的从来都不是自己的选择。殊不知,如何提高自己的辩证思维和解决问题的能力远比学校和专业来得重要。The Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) released today a report, It Takes More Than a Major: Employer Priorities for College Learning and Student Success, summarizing the findings of a national survey of business and nonprofit leaders. Among other things, the survey reveals that 74 percent of business and nonprofit leaders say they would recommend a twenty-first century liberal education to a young person they know in order to prepare for long-term professional success in today's global economy.Key findings:Innovation a Priority
Cross-Cutting Capacities vs. Choice of Undergraduate Major
- Nearly all employers surveyed (95 percent) say they give hiring preference to college graduates with skills that will enable them to contribute to innovation in the workplace.
- 92 percent agree that "innovation is essential" to their organization's continued success.
Continued Importance of Liberal Education and the Liberal Arts
- Nearly all those surveyed (93 percent) say that "a demonstrated capacity to think critically, communicate clearly, and solve complex problems ismore important than [a candidate's] undergraduate major."
- More than 9 in 10 of those surveyed say it is important that those they hire demonstrate ethical judgment and integrity; intercultural skills; and the capacity for continued new learning.
- More than 75% of employers say they want more emphasis on 5 key areas including: critical thinking, complex problem-solving, written and oral communication, and applied knowledge in real-world settings.
A Blended Model of Liberal and Applied Learning
- The majority of employers agree that having both field-specific knowledge and skills and a broad range of skills and knowledge is most important for recent college graduates to achieve long-term career success. Few think that having field-specific knowledge and skills alone is what is most needed for individuals' career success.
- 80 percent of employers agree that, regardless of their major, all college students should acquire broad knowledge in the liberal arts and sciences.
- Across many areas tested, employers strongly endorse educational practices that involve students in active, effortful work—practices including collaborative problem-solving, internships, senior projects, and community engagements. Employers consistently rank outcomes and practices that involve application of skills over acquisition of discrete bodies of knowledge. Employers also strongly endorse practices that require students to demonstrate both acquisition of knowledge and its application.

So I was a little taken aback to find out that there is apparently a pop singer named "Pink" who is, like most celebrities in the entertainment biz, a complete whiz at foreign policy and possessor of a level of fiscal acumen that would shame Alan Greenspan. Now she wants to challenge the governor of Alaska to a geography bee-cum-therapy session:
"If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin," Pink told PopEater during her Sessions taping on Thursday, "it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map ..."Vapid pop singer or sitting governor? Vapid pop singer or sitting governor? Hmmm... I think I know who I'd be betting on in that particular game of Trivial Pursuit.
What scares Pink are women who consider the Alaska governor's selection a feminist victory. "This woman hates women," the singer said.
Anyway, showing such a Matt Damon-like, nay, positively George Clooney-esque level of political insight is a sure recipe for success in the odd Bizarro-world that is the E!-universe.
Come in here, dear girl, have a cigar, you're gonna go far...
(PS: "Hate animals"? No, no! Palin loves animals. With mashed potatos.)
BONUS!: Noted political scholar and ex-Tommy Lee video co-star, Pamela Anderson, weighs in with her views of Palin. Thank you, Pam. Shouldn't you be off getting a tattoo removed or something? Run along, now...

Oilfield Housing
Black gold – Oil has been a reason for expansion and growth many countries. In North America, the Bakken Oilfield spanning North Dakota, Montana and Saskatchewan is creating jobs for hundreds of thousands of workers. In addition to drilling in Texas, Alaska and multiple other locations, the oil business has never looked more promising.
Largely impart to the practice of fracking, shale gas has become a highly sought after resource. However, there is a major issue holding back the further growth of this industry, where and how do you house the thousands of workers it takes to complete the intricate wells? Currently, many companies are paying high costs for their workers to stay at motels and hotels in the vicinity of the drill site. This can lead to multiple problems such as a workers staying in uncontrolled environments, missing shifts due to oversleeping or simply not having hotels near the remote drill location.
Industrial Housing Solution has the answer – On-site oilfield housing for your employees. With knowledge gained from 30 years of housing experience, we can build a man camp that is cost-effective and is as tough as your workers. Whether you need to house 20 employees or thousands, we will provide a customized solution to meet your specific needs.
Our bunk houses will comfortable sleep 10 workers, but have room to house 20. They provide 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, a main living area and kitchen. Each worker will have their own space, storage and a place to relax after a hard shift. This ensures your workers stay in a controlled environment and they will be rested for a new day of work. The bottom line – Your expenses will decrease, while your productivity and safety increases.

text: Janovitz's introduction to school brims with cute animal characters versifying their good fortune to be at school. "We like to cut. / We like to glue. / We like to hang the art we do. / We like to swing. / We like to slide. / We like lining up to go inside." That last line is the giveaway; isn't it safe to say that many kids would never utter it? These children are being used as mouthpieces for someone else's program, and young readers will know. "We like snacktime, / and we know / we need good food to help us grow. / We like to sing. / We like to clap. / We like to take a little nap." Ditto. Visually sweet and wholesome, the book is undercut by the declarative text, which feels more hypnotic than genuine. Readers, especially those looking for some comfort, may want to feel party to any cheerful assertions meant to soothe, but Janovitz's characters don't invite the reader in, instead they baldly go about their unsubstantiated proclamations—"We like. . . . " Maybe we don't, and then what do we do with our ruffled feathers? (Picture book. 3-5)

When I think of Christian Dior, all I see is Charlize Theron stripping down and all I hear is her voice softly and seductively saying "J'adore Dior". The brand is known for its long history and timeless aesthetic. And with the re-opening of their store in Shanghai, Dior has decided to create an exclusive and limited edition selection of items.
Christian Dior's boutique at Plaza 66 in Shanghai, China will re-open this May. With the reopening, Dior has decided to launch a limited edition selection of iconic pieces from the house in Dior blue. These pieces will be sold exclusively at their Shanghai store, which means many of us will never be able to buy them. This launch coincides with the World Expo and the Dior Cruise 2011 fashion show being held in Shanghai on May 15th. (more…)

Meg Wachter knows. You can see the results on her website. It's in the "Dumped" collection, of course.

In 2010 the top political story was the rise of the tea party. This year, the persistence of libertarian support for Ron Paul garnered headlines. The authors of a new paper argue that these trends are "two parts to the same story—a story of the emergence of a libertarian constituency that has planted roots in the tea party." In "Libertarian Roots of the Tea Party" (Cato Policy Analysis no. 705), David Kirby, vice president at FreedomWorks, and Emily Ekins, a Cato research fellow and director of polling at Reason Foundation, offer the most comprehensive analysis of polling data on the tea party to date. Using comprehensive data analysis techniques, the authors find that the tea party is united on economic issues but split in half on the social issues it tends to avoid. Interestingly, from early 2008 through early 2009, libertarians—when compared with conservative tea partiers and Republicans more generally—were more than twice as angry with the Republican Party, more pessimistic about the economy and deficit, and more frustrated with their inability to affect government. "Libertarians seem to start at a higher level of agitation," they write, "leading the way for tea partiers and Republicans, who catch up over time." As such, the tea party is "upending the conventional wisdom," showing that Republican candidates must win over teaparty voters rather than placate social conservatives. It may take some years for this impulse to come to fruition. "But in the longer sweep of history, libertarian ideas are undoubtedly on the upswing," Kirby and Ekins conclude.
Regulators and Credit Ratings Among the variety of factors that contributed to the financial crisis of 2008 was the perception that risky assets were actually reliable. This error resulted in part from a lack of competition among credit rating agencies (CRAs)—which, as the authors of a new study write, stemmed from regulatory barriers and mandated usage of these ratings. In "Regulation, Market Structure, and the Role of Credit Rating Agencies" (Cato Policy Analysis no. 704), Mark Calabria, director of financial regulation studies at the Cato Institute, and Emily Ekins, a Cato research fellow and director of polling at Reason Foundation, examine the origins of the credit rating agencies, highlighting the role of certain regulations in "creating regulatory dependence on designated agencies' ratings." The core of the problem is the lack of competition within the rating industry. "Entrenched market power has led to the predictable result that rating agencies would reduce the quality of their services," Calabria and Ekins write. In turn, the excessive leverage and asset regulation that resulted would not have occurred "had financial regulators not embedded the use of ratings into the fabric of prudential regulation." Increased competition alone, however, will not address the dysfunction within the credit ratings industry. Policymakers should eliminate regulatory reliance on credit ratings, reducing the oligopolistic power of the CRAs and the artificial demand for these ratings. Reducing the central role of these agencies would "greatly increase the quality and quantity of monitoring of financial risk."
The Defense Budget's Excess Burden
As the public debate over the future of defense spending intensifies, many are questioning whether the current structure of the U.S. military should be downsized. In "Economic Effects of Reduction in Defense Outlays" (Cato Policy Analysis no. 706), Benjamin Zycher, a senior fellow at the Pacific Research Institute and a visiting scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, considers the aggregate economic effects that would occur if defense outlays were reduced. Assuming spending cuts of $100 billion per year over 10 years, Zycher challenges the findings of several recent studies that conclude that such reductions will have adverse economic and employment effects. On the contrary, defense services are similar to most other goods, he writes—and therefore unemployment, as well as the other economic effects from military cuts, is "irrelevant in terms of the appropriate level of defense spending." The cuts simply shift resources among economic sectors. The resulting unemployment during this adjustment process, while "politically significant," only has temporary economic effects. Ultimately, Zycher highlights "the benefits of an economic system that reallocates resources to more productive uses as economic conditions change." He notes that the reduction in defense spending would reduce the costs of the excess burden that the tax system imposes on the economy, estimating that the cuts would reduce economic costs by $135 billion per year. "In short, the changing long-term threat environment facing the United States, at least arguably, will yield an optimal force structure smaller than that currently supported," he concludes.
The Charter School Paradox
The explosive growth of charter schools has marked an important change in the composition of primary and secondary education in the United States. Although the first one was founded just two decades ago, charters now enroll more than 1.7 million students in nearly 5,400 separate institutions. In "The Impact of Charter Schools on Public and Private School Enrollment" (Cato Policy Analysis no. 707), Richard Buddin, an adjunct senior economist at the RAND Corporation, examines the changes in enrollment across different types of schools, with particular emphasis on the growing charter-school sector. In analyzing district-level enrollment patterns throughout the relevant states, he finds that while most students are drawn from traditional public schools, "charters are pulling large numbers of students from the private education market" as well. This presents "a potentially devastating impact" on that market, he writes. In highly urban areas, for instance, "charter enrollments increased 14.8 percent from 2000 to 2008, while all types of private enrollments declined, "led by a 5.6 percent annual decline in Catholic school enrollments" in particular. This shift will represent a serious increase in the financial burden of taxpayers. "Charter school gains may come at a significant cost as shifts from private to public enrollment significantly increase public school costs," Buddin writes. He concludes by noting that if governments increase educational spending, tax revenues must be increased or spending in other areas reduced. In either case, this student shift represents a significant trend within the U.S. education market—one that undoubtedly requires further attention. In a companion piece to Buddin's analysis—which can be downloaded at www.cato.org/pubs/pas/ Charter-School-Paradox.pdf—former policy analyst Adam Schaeffer argues that the seeming contradictions in what he calls "the charter school paradox" are simply "the unintended consequences of inadequate, public-sector-only reform."
Protectionism in Intellectual Property
The complex web of intellectual property competition today has resulted in a state of constant litigation between companies that can afford to use the courts as tools for negotiating better licensing terms. One such tool is Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930. According to Cato trade policy analyst K. William Watson in "Still a Protectionist Trade Remedy" (Cato Policy Analysis no. 708), Section 337 gives the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) the power to exclude imports if it finds that foreign manufacturers have engaged in "unfair methods of competition." In addition to filing a lawsuit in federal district court, U.S. patent holders can use Section 337 over the same subject matter. This tactic has become increasingly popular—the ITC has the power to render total exclusion of a product from the U.S. market—yet, as Watson argues, the mechanism has had "negative consequences for the coherence of U.S. patent law." The availability of a second venue to pursue patent lawsuits constrains the integrity and functionality of intellectual property "by establishing a dual-track system for patent enforcement." This, in turn, allows the law to serve as "a purely protectionist trade remedy mechanism." In the end, Watson writes, the only answer is full repeal of Section 337. Otherwise, the law poses substantial risk not only to the effectiveness of the patent system, but also "the ability of the United States to participate in the international trading system" and "the rights of American consumers to pick their own winners and losers in a globalized economy."

How Tomatoes Benefit the Skin
Tomatoes have been a kitchen staple for years, and they continue to rise in popularity as we learn more about their health promoting properties. But did you know that tomatoes also boost skin health as well? Below are some of the amazing benefits of tomatoes and how tomatoes benefit the skin.
High Levels of vitamins A, C, and E
The high levels of vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene), C, and E found in tomatoes work to help improve overall skin health and function. Vitamin A helps prevent the skin from looking dry and dull while also promoting natural exfoliation through proper cell turnover and vitamin E naturally helps protect the skin from harmful free radicals caused by stress, smoking and the environment. It also helps promote the healing of the skin and gives it a natural, fresh glow. Whereas Vitamin C is a powerful nutrient that helps improve a healthy skin texture and appearance by improving the production of collagen, hydration, and improving faster wound healing. All together, these powerful antioxidants naturally strengthen and brighten the skin while also keeping it at it's healthiest state.
Rich in Lycopene
Tomatoes are rich in the antioxidant lycopene, the substance which gives tomatoes their vibrant red pigment. Lycopene helps blocks free radicals, which otherwise causes cell damage and leads to premature aging and disease. It has also been found to help promote younger and healthier skin. Studies have found that oral lycopene may actually protect natural structures of the skin by decreasing inflammation within the tissue and blocking free radicals that promote the aging of skin.
A recent study has also found that regular consumption of tomatoes helps promote the following effects:
- Improved levels of procollagen and elastic fibers.
- Slows damage of mitochondrial DNA of the skin.
- Reduces immediate redness caused by UVB radiation.
Studies done at the University of Manchester also found that eating tomato paste offered 33 percent more protection against sunburns. This also helps reduces the damage caused by free radical molecules on DNA and skin structures (free radicals are responsible certain types of skin cancer, premature aging and the formation of wrinkles). So, a diet rich in tomatoes may protect against sun-induced damage such as sunburn and skin aging.
Use as a Topical Treatment
In addition to regular consumption of tomatoes working to help improve the skin, topical application of tomatoes has also been found to be very effective. By rubbing tomato slices on the skin, you can naturally brighten the skin due to the high levels of antioxidants. The anti-inflammatory properties found in vitamins A and C have been found to be very effective in reducing acne, just mash up a tomato and apply the entire mix to skin for a natural face mask.
Struggling with oily skin? A mixture of tomato juice and cucumber works together as a effective skin toner and oil control.
Tomatoes in the Diet
Tomatoes offer countless health benefits to our skin, mind and overall body health. They are an excellent addition to everyone's diet and have numerous uses. Tomatoes are in fact a fruit and not a vegetable. They have been found to help reduce inflammation, improve vision and gut health. As well as reduce the risk of heart and lung disease, urinary tract infection, oxidation stress and may reduce the risk of certain types of cancer and hypertension.
