Music is everywhere, from the songs we sing in the shower to the background of the shows we watch, to the workouts we sweat through. It's your favorite band, the memory of your favorite concert, and the traditions we carry with us.
To the surprise of no one, it's also a complex business, one that goes far deeper than headline-grabbing stars like Beyoncé (all hail the queen, of course). To understand the music that reaches our ears, we have to follow the complex web of people at work behind the scenes. And again, it's probably not surprising that it's often a process disproportionately dominated by white men.
Which is why this month we're getting to know five women in the music world. From educators making sure curriculums reflect everyone to the festival producers taking risks, to the people keeping us safe while we get down, here are the women creating a more equitable music world.
Nicole Barsalona, president, Women in Music
Nicole Barsalona has worked with Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band and has seen the world as an artist manager. However, it wasn't until she found Women in Music that she felt like she had a network of peers and mentors to help her grow in the industry. It was the nonprofit's educational opportunities, networking events, and job-placement assistance that allowed her to finally feel like she had found her people, and it's why she's still on the board today.
"I'm now delighted to serve as president of the organization, and I can honestly say not a day goes by that I'm not inspired by our teams and partners," she says. "Hundreds of people devote their time, energy, and spirit to our mission and our members."
What Women in Music does for its members
"At the end of the day, our goal is to get more diverse candidates hired into the business, support them as they grow, and make sure the decision-makers who are leading this industry are more representative of the fans, artists, and teams they serve. To achieve our first and foremost goal of educating, we host educational content to make sure members have the tools they need to succeed. From panels and webinars to global leadership summits, skill-building workshops, and networking events, our programs serve as teaching touchpoints and connect the community. I myself became an artist manager because I saw a panel featuring four female artist managers, and I thought, 'Oh, wait, I can do this!' So, that storytelling has always been a big part of WIM and hopefully always will be.
The second piece is empowerment. We empower members through that first pillar of education and with the resources that are available to them through the WIM network. Whether it's job opportunities in our weekly member newsletter, discounts to industry conferences, or our Google Group, where members are able to tap into one another's expertise, we have a global network of resources to lean on.
The final piece is advancement, and that's where our global initiatives come in. A great example is our Executive Internship Program. We launched the pilot program last summer, and the response was overwhelming — we had over 1,000 applicants for only a handful of spots, and the results were incredible. Many of the interns ended up getting full-time offers at their host companies, and the partner companies told us that they were blown away by the caliber of talent."
How women have (and haven't) gained ground in the music industry
"I was told outright years ago that if I got married or had kids, my career would be over. People just didn't talk about anything outside of their work life back then — it was assumed that you were lucky to be in the room in this business, and if you had anything else in your life to distract [you from] your devotion, you were irrelevant. I even left the industry for a couple of years because I just didn't think it was possible to craft the life and career I wanted — none of my female mentors had partners or children, and I knew I wasn't willing to give up my personal life for this business. Today, I see the next generation of leaders coming up in the business, and they are all in on inclusivity, and work-life balance, and prioritizing their needs while also aspiring to do great work. It's such a different mindset, and people are really intentional now. That said, the numbers are still dismal. Research shows that we still aren't anywhere near parity in decision-making roles in this industry, we don't have enough representation in the studio in engineering or production, we aren't represented out on the road in live touring, and the list goes on. However, there are more women than ever taking a stand and making a difference. We work with incredible leaders like Noelle Scaggs, who started Diversify the Stage. She would take the stage as the co-lead singer of Fitz and the Tantrums and notice she wasn't represented in the venues she would headline. Now, her organization brings opportunities to diverse cohorts of people who aspire to work in the business, and agencies use her inclusivity pledge to ensure they're hiring diverse crews and staff on tour."
On the music that's changed her
"As a child of the 1980s and 1990s, some of my earliest memories are of watching Madonna on MTV. Whether it was her performing 'Like a Virgin' at an award show, or the video which told a story and added context and meaning to the lyrics, she represented freedom and autonomy and empowerment in ways you rarely saw back then. I was lucky to see other groundbreaking artists live a number of times, like Annie Lennox, Chrissie Hynde, and Joan Jett. I can only imagine how seeing these women at the forefront impacted how I saw other women and how I saw myself."
Briana Boyd, artist relations manager
Briana Boyd is a lifelong rock fan and a literal card-carrying member of the Paramore fan club. Her path through the music world has taken her through A&R coordination, festival work, and artist management. She's now the artist relations manager at HeadCount, which encourages young people to vote and get involved in democracy through partnerships with high-profile celebrities and musicians. The way she sees it, art is a powerful medium for change, and becoming a link in that process has been incredibly meaningful.
"Meeting artists, giving them their flowers, and making connections is my favorite thing, so I'm blessed to say I get to do one of my favorite things for work every day," Boyd says. "Getting Megan Thee Stallion to sign our guitar for charity at Okeechobee Music Fest was a highlight for sure."
How she's seen the music industry change
"When I was growing up, it was still incredibly weird for a Black person to love rock like I did. My family would lovingly say I was a white girl in a Black girl's body, and my peers had varying opinions on whether I was straight-up crazy or a novelty. I went to shows alone constantly, and often when I got there, I'd be one of the only Black people in the entire venue. I'd be passed up for promotions or jobs entirely even when I was qualified and did a good job. I ran a music blog and interviewed dozens of rock bands, who were shook to see me waiting in the lobby. Now, I feel like it's more socially acceptable to like different genres of music and just be yourself. We still have a long way to go, but I'd like to think there's less Black and brown youths out there feeling like they don't fit in anywhere. Representation is important in this, and there's a ton of artists now who defy genres and stereotypes, and this gives hope to young people. Ultimately, I'd like to see more Black and brown people in positions of power in entertainment. More queer people too! Intersectionality is important to me, and having that shown can make the difference in a person's life."
Why music and social justice are intertwined
"Life certainly informs music. We see it every day as artists choose to speak out about the issues closest to them. The history and influence of Black music in America runs deep, and we've always used music as a way to tell our stories — what's happening in our communities and to the people we love. Same can be said for the music of other cultures around the world. Artists often find solace in talking about both what pains them and the problems of this country, and sometimes even the world. I believe that if you have a platform, you should not only speak out about the issues people are facing, but take action, as influence can truly create change. Join a protest, encourage people to vote, donate a sum of money to a trusted nonprofit working toward social equity — the list is long on things artists can do to effect change."
For any woman interested in entering the music industry
"Stand your ground. Don't be afraid to ask for what you need. There's this idea that if you make it in music, you're lucky. In reality, a lot of work goes into building a lasting career in this industry. Network horizontally, and utilize the myriad of tools out there for women trying to make it in the industry. Join a panel, and introduce yourself, go to shows, work hard, and ultimately you will succeed. Finessed Media, SheSaidSo, and Women in Music are some of my favorite orgs connecting women in this space."
Jessica Clark, Le Guess Who? and Beaches Brew music festival producer
Jessica Clark laughs when asked to describe her path through the music world. Once a music blogger ("I don't have what it takes to be a journalist!" she notes, citing the madness of the 24-hour news cycle), she transitioned into talent booking after moving from the United States to Amsterdam. It was there that Clark got involved in Le Guess Who? and Beaches Brew — two independent festivals in the Netherlands and Italy with reputations for serving music fans' most eclectic tastes with a deep bench of artists from around the world. (While she's since moved back to the States, she's still a part of both festivals' teams.)
Now with a gig doing A&R and project management with Joyful Noise Recordings, she's also gearing up for the next phase of her career as the owner of Everything Nice, a record store, coffee shop, and performance space in upstate New York. Because ultimately, no matter what job she takes on, it all comes back to connecting others to the joy of music.
On putting on Le Guess Who? festival and dealing with Covid
"The government passed down new regulations. And so, we had to decide, are we canceling the rest of this festival? Because we didn't plan for that. The festival had to be over by 10 p.m., and it had to be seated. And we had four to six hours to figure that out. [The team] did it, and they did it so well. And it was like, 'Man, this is a group of people that care about the festivalgoers.' I think that we were all a little bit spoiled anyway with a pre-pandemic charmed life, and I normally don't take the time to be super-grateful for all the big moments. And I think last year, it was almost that we couldn't bear for the festival not to go on. It's something that we all love working on. It's a passion project for everybody involved."
Why she continues to work on European festivals after moving back to the United States
"When I left Europe, I thought they would hire people for my role. And the way I was treated by both of those organizations was really beautiful and special. Their attitude was 'Why would [you] have to quit? We could all still work together.' Both festivals gave me the opportunity to stick around. And to be given that same respect and love in return was a huge lesson for me. [When] I am with these people, I am doing my life's work — so being invited back to be a part of festivals that I've been so much into helped me refocus and put even more into it. No one treats me like I'm replaceable. How do I treat the people I work with? That's how I try to treat all of the journalists or anyone that's coming to get the press pass. I try to make sure I know their name. They have my phone number. They feel like they can reach out to me if they need anything or have any questions."
On opening her record store and performance space, Everything Nice
"When we moved back to the U.S., I needed something to do. So, I went to work at a record shop in St. Petersburg. I felt at home — I love helping people pick things out. I love knowing a customer well enough that when they walk in the door, I can be like, 'Oh, you're gonna love this record. You've got to hear this. As soon as it came in, I thought of you.' It just felt like the dream within the dream. And I thought to myself, 'Okay, that's my goal. However, I'm going to do it. I'm gonna make my way back here.' A record shop can be the nucleus of so many special things. It can be a place for performances. It can be a place where people get turned on to new things. It can be for younger people to come in and discover new worlds. Remember what it felt like? Being young and being in a record shop just felt like so much excitement."
Brandi Waller-Pace, musician and executive director at Decolonizing the Music Room
It was a sprained knee during college that allowed Brandi Waller-Pace to lean into music, her first love. The way she recalls it, music had always been in her life, from choir to keyboards to a love of big bands and swing. But formally studying it allowed her to go all in. ("I've always been music nerdy anyway," she says. "So, it just grew, being in my department with people, doing stuff around the clock.") What she discovered is that she had a passion for performing jazz and early American roots music and teaching. It was through her time in the classroom when she discovered inequalities in the music curriculum. Teaching Western European culture was prioritized, and low-income districts were often left out of the conversation all together.
This realization led to the foundation of Decolonizing the Music Room, a nonprofit resource aimed at increasing the number of Black, brown, indigenous, and Asian voices in music education. What Waller-Pace has discovered is that people in the music-education world genuinely do want to create a more equitable space — and through web-based resources and training, she's helping them do just that.
On the joy that she gets from teaching
"First was just loving my teachers and the relationship I had with them and seeing how good they were. I think I've always appreciated the teachers that I've had, and it just feels nice when I'm in a position where I can help serve that purpose to someone else. My undergrad and grad degrees are actually performance. So, I hadn't planned to go into the classroom until I moved down to Texas. I had a baby at that time, and I was married, and it's like — you know, we need health insurance, maybe benefits, and a regular salary. And so, I was like, 'How can I get that, and it can be something I enjoy and doing?' The obvious answer was going into education. It's part of the million things we end up actually doing, making music, and being able to engage in the community, and branch out into different areas that are important to me. These things are connected with education, even if they're outside the field. And yeah, I still have that enjoyment and feel like I make some form of impact."
How decolonization happens in music education
"We learn to speak the same language when we describe what we're saying so that we can strategize on top of that. We've done some keynote speeches. And we started to get calls from therapists, where there was opioid-related stuff and ethnomusicology-related stuff. I think the sad thing for me is because it was online, combined with George Floyd's murder, people were fired up — but for so many people, it was a circumstantial being fired up. And I think there were lots of [people] just looking for something to do so they can kind of be done — and we even saw that with funding. It's always really hard to see that; it seemed like a trend. We ended up talking to some organizations and doing some work with them — or consulting. Just looking at a plan that they have and talking to them about what the impact might be of certain things that they're saying or doing, regardless of their intention. And [discussing] the things to consider, and who to consider, when making their plans and deciding how to build sustainable equity rather than performative equality."
On forming the Fort Worth African American Roots Music Festival
"I also play old-time music, and there have been a few people who have been leading Black reclamation of the form. Our ancestors created the banjo! All kinds of really great stuff is happening. After going to a couple of amazing events, I wanted to get people to come down to Fort Worth, Texas. Something good is bringing something to my community, but I also want musicians to know Fort Worth exists. People in these genres are more gathered around the Midwest and the coasts. And so, there's not too much down here. I'm hoping we'll build a name for the city as well, and people will be like, 'Festival season is happening, so I have to go to Fort Worth.' And the lineup was amazing there. A lot of us are just friends or acquaintances, and there were a couple of people I met in person for the first time after communicating with them online. And it was just a really joyful experience. Everyone was just so happy to be together. One of the artists remarking about how she's not the only Black person, and having a community in this way. There's diversity, and Blackness, and just being able to name our stuff, without having to be entry level. Having everyone understand what we're talking about was really cool. Right now, we are housed in Southside Preservation Hall in Fort Worth. And our organizations are partnered, so that will be the home of the festival for the next four years."
Jen Lyon, founder and owner of MeanRed Productions
Jen Lyon is curious. She's the kind of person who will happily discuss investing, funding music, parenting, and life without skipping a beat — all which played into her decision to found MeanRed Productions, a team that puts on shows in Detroit and New York. Like many companies in the music industry, it's built out of passion for the craft. However, as Lyon explains, she's always pushing herself to take the kind of risks that create a better work environment for employees and better shows for fans.
"I used to run percentages in my mind like, if I'm not failing 70 percent of the time, I'm not taking enough risk," she says. "And I hope that at some point, I'm only failing 50 percent of the time, because that means that success for me. Every day I'm pitching, I'm reaching out. I'm just trying to fall in love with someone — an artist manager, an agent, a DJ, a playlist — and I reach out to that person; I figure out how to support them."
Why she's committed to hiring female and nonbinary security teams
"It just feels more comfortable. I've run security teams since I was 20 in nightclubs, and it's pretty intense. I had this crazy, instinctive anger and fire to make sure that everyone was really okay. I remember standing next to these grown men who are in their 30s and thinking, I am maybe angrier than they are, and more aggressive than they are, because I'm in the throes of being a young woman getting knocked around, getting grabbed, and maltreated in the streets of New York City. I think that every woman, especially in nightlife, we're constantly navigating this space of, like, the aggression of not only the humans we're hearing or acting with, but the business. … It's almost like you're running a little, small army, especially because sometimes there's a lot of threats. There's active shooters and drug dealers. There's lots of threats — but then there's, like, high joy. It's a really hard position. Like it's not a high-paying job, security, and you're at super high risk. And so sometimes, it's confusing at an event — who's picking a fight or starting a fight. Seeing security dudes sets the tone a certain way, and so it's been really joyful and nice having different energy. It also prompts the question: How do we know what safe is? What are we all responsible for when it comes to safety?"
On navigating work-life balance
"I'm a single mom. And I started my company to essentially allow me to have a life where I can be a very present parent, I think, and then raising a young woman in this environment is super-fun and interesting. It's so magical just being able to ask questions, and you get to do that when you're presenting shows, right? We present such a range of artists, and so it's constantly asking questions and having them answered, or looking for answers when you're presenting shows and building out a staff. … I feel like I'm constantly in the dialogue about [balance]. And I think that it all reflects in how many staff people I hire, what kind of responsibilities they have, how I communicate with the staff and myself about what our responsibilities are for our work. I recognize that I'm very different as a boss than other bosses, though. I'm kind of constantly acknowledging the lack of humanity in the industry. I figured out mental health as a mom and as a boss is just acknowledging that we're all responsible for our own mental health."
Why she's living her dream of putting on shows
"I have this vision of myself, hidden in a corner with a hoodie, almost like a teenage version of myself, watching bands and DJs. Just enjoying being so quiet and in the background and just being so grateful for music happening. I think I can think of different artists I've worked with, of course, that have changed my life, like Meshell Ndegeocello, Mykki Blanco, James Blake — there's a continual list of artists who I think have shifted my understanding or perception a little bit. I think that's like the grateful piece is just being able to be allowed in the room, you know? And I think I do have that extra gratitude because I see what it's taken to get me where I am, and then I'm also nowhere near where I want to be."

Which academic or extracurricular achievement are you most proud of during business school? I hesitantly joined some fellow Net Impact members in competing in the Total Impact Portfolio Challenge, an annual competition which asks students to design and execute investment portfolios that maximize impact across asset classes. Knowing that I was much more of a poet than a quant, I was worried that I wouldn't have the financial know-how to succeed in the challenge, and was at first intimidated by the material. Still, I knew I wanted to develop those skills and understand how to use business principles to drive impact. My fabulous team and I worked diligently throughout the year, and were thrilled to be named the runners' up in the competition. It was incredibly satisfying to find success at something that seemed so overwhelming at the beginning! Moreover, the competition opened doors to so many resources and sparked conversations with so many inspiring professionals in the impact space. My team and I became dedicated to providing more resources and programming for students interested in impact investing at Marshall, and I'm particularly proud of the Impact Insights series I designed to give students the opportunity to really dig deep into different ways they could make their careers around impact.
What achievement are you most proud of in your professional career? I used to feel somewhat sheepish when I told people I was an actor before coming to business school. While my classmates had been busy with conference calls and board rooms, I had spent most of my time at open calls and in rehearsal rooms. My "survival jobs" eventually propelled me towards an MBA, where I knew I could build the skills to drive impact in a way I wasn't able to in the arts. Still, I don't know if I would be able to succeed in business without the skills I learned in theater. Acting is all about connecting with people, making bold choices, being quick to respond to the unexpected, and working with a team to make something inspiring. I am extremely proud of the years I spent onstage, and will carry those lessons with me moving into my business career.
Why did you choose this business school? I attended the USC MBA Women's Forum in 2019, which was hosted by the Graduate Women In Business. USC Marshall had just been the first top business school to achieve gender parity, and the event spotlighted a remarkable collection of female professors, alumni, and current students. I knew immediately that I could feel at home at USC Marshall, and would be proud to be part of a school so dedicated to creating space for people underrepresented in business.
Who was your favorite MBA professor? Dean Suh-Pyng Ku taught the first part of our core Corporate Finance course, and made me pretty nervous at first; she doesn't hesitate to cold call you. But her true dedication to helping students learn was so clear, and I was a fixture at her office hours as I got the basics down. Dean Ku took the time to review our TIPC approach on multiple occasions, and made me feel empowered to succeed in my finance courses and extracurricular activities.
What was your favorite MBA event or tradition at your business school? Because of COVID, our class unfortunately missed out on some of the traditions – but I'm so glad we all got to be part of TAM Day, the beloved field day portion of orientation full of fun activities and challenges. There's nothing like getting to know your new team and classmates with tug-of-war and egg drops. Still proud to be part of the winning cohort, Core C!
Looking back over your MBA experience, what is the one thing you'd do differently and why? I wish I had been more confident about my finance skills from the beginning! I shied away from some opportunities like the Student Investment Fund because I figured I could never be good enough — but now I know I have what it takes.
What is the biggest myth about your school? People talk all the time about how powerful the Trojan Network is, and I thought for sure it must be overblown – but the rumors are true! There is something special about being part of the Trojan community, and how much people are willing to go the extra distance to help each other out. It's essential to the ethos of USC and one of the things that makes it so special.
What surprised you the most about business school? I had the impression that business school was mostly fun and games, but getting back into the swing of being a student is no easy feat! Despite advance warnings, I was definitely taken aback by the intensity of those first few weeks (what we call Term 1 at USC Marshall). Still, we all eventually adjust and focus on making the most of these special two years.
What is one thing you did during the application process that gave you an edge at the school you chose? For someone like me with a non-traditional background, I would definitely recommend doing the work to get clarity for yourself and the admissions office how you want to use your time as an MBA. The time flies by and the recruiting process starts very early; there's less time than you think to explore different pathways. The admissions office wants to know you'll be able to take full advantage of your precious time because you'll be ready to jump in.
Which MBA classmate do you most admire? I was lucky to have Lawrence Rolle with me in Core C. Lawrence is an MD/MBA student who exudes positive energy and leadership. Without fail, Lawrence asks every guest speaker the same question – "What does leadership mean to you?" It's so simple, but so evocative, and I've carried a number of those responses with me. Lawrence has a terrific sense of humor, and doesn't sweat the small stuff. His optimism and passion are infectious.
How disruptive was it to shift to an online or hybrid environment after COVID hit? I was impressed by how well we were able to shift to being online. While we'd all love to be able to see each other in person, we're all finding ways to connect through Zoom and through active chat groups. It was a bummer to miss out on the beloved USC PRIME travel program; we were all set to go to Thailand. My team loved working with our clients for our class project over the internet, and hope we'll be able to visit in person.
Who most influenced your decision to pursue business in college? When I was trying to figure out what was next, my dad encouraged me to go for an MBA. I had never been someone who was drawn to the corporate world, so hadn't really considered it. However, he saw my potential for leadership and could tell an MBA would help me fill in the gaps to be able to get there.
What are the top two items on your professional bucket list? I'm looking forward to using my skills to create a measurable improvement in the patient experience in healthcare – but somewhere down the line I hope to have my own dessert empire (or at least small business) that reflects my love of sweets!
What made Maya such an invaluable addition to the Class of 2021?
"Whether it's promoting an impact investing project, making the case for additional social impact course offerings, or planning the USC Marshall Everyone's Business Global Case Competition, Maya brings passion, enthusiasm, and a can-do attitude to everything she's involved with in the USC Marshall community. Maya has such a thoughtful and intentional way of approaching business challenges, and it has been a pleasure working with her this year. She is modest in her description of her "non-traditional background," and I believe that background has actually served her very well as an MBA student. Never constrained by conventional ways of thinking or doing, her savvy and insights make for a truly fresh and inspiring way of tackling business problems. I've learned so much from her!"

Srinagar: It was not less than any celebration when a man missing for fourteen long years returned his home in Handwara tehsil of north Kashmir's Kupwara district on Thursday. His relatives and friends formed a beeline in his compound waiting for their turn to meet him.
Identified as Mohammad Ashraf Kasana, son of Hakim-u-din Kasana, a resident of Hamla Pati, Ahgan Rajwar Handwara, went missing in 2004 in Gujrat state, where he was pursuing his graduation. It was in 2004, then 17, Kasana joined Madrasa Madani, Darul Uloom Gujarat for Islamic studies.
For over two years everything was going smoothly and he used to visit his family yearly. But in 2006 he suddenly stopped visiting home and his parents got panicky. His father Hakimuddin reportedly visited his college and tried to locate his son but he could not find any clue and returned home. Apprehensive of any bad incident that might have killed her son, Kasana's mother developed multiple ailments since he went missing.
A missing report was also filed in Zachildara Police post and there were many attempts by the police as well to trace Kasana.
But it was not less than a miracle when they found their son knocking at the door of his house. "We lost him when he was a kid and now he is a grownup man," said one of his jubilant relatives from Handwara.
Meanwhile, a concerned police official said that Kasana had come back to Kashmir in 2006, two years after he joined the Madressa. He had reportedly joined the clothing business in Srinagar without informing his family.
"The initial investigations suggest that Kasana had come back to Srinagar and joined a local clothing shop as a salesman," the officer said, adding that "Kasana's family had no idea till now where he was.
The officer added that the case is being ascertained by the police and further details will be revealed after the investigations are over.

An Unusual Walk
61 comments:
Oh...I'm so sorry...you made me cry...our pets are so special to us and I feel your loss. Love and hugs and prayers....ReplyDelete
I am heartbroken for you. Such an emotional week, I truly feel your heartache. To say it is actually a physical pain would be true. It weighs on our heart. I know you will remember the happy times, the love, the licks, the walks. Hugs to you my friend.ReplyDelete
Oh this is very sad news. I am so sorry you lost your sweet companion. I know you will miss her so much.ReplyDelete
I'm sorry to hear you lost your beloved pet.
She looked like a very lovable and sweet dog. I know she will be missed.
Steve's painting is endearing.
Your neighbors were all touched by Dorje's life too.
Hope you are comforted by sweet memories.

Carol and Steve,ReplyDelete
My heart breaks for you and your family.... I wish there were words to ease the pain of losing Dorje.
Carol ~ReplyDelete
I am so VERY sorry for your loss. While I cannot know your particular pain, I do know the heart breaking tragedy of losing one of our loved ones.
I will keep you both in my heart & thoughts ~
May your sweet Dorje be playing with my beloved Duncan on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.
With a tear in my eye, sending you tons of hugs ~
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. I'm glad you have the beautiful painting.ReplyDelete
I'm so sorry you lost your beloved dog. We only had one dog in our family and I remember how hard those last days were. Time will lessen the pain and you'll think of what a good life you gave her. Your husband's painting is wonderful.ReplyDelete
I am so sorry- I am sitting here bawling FOR you! I lost my last pet 3 years ago and just could not bear to lose another. Do you know about The Rainbow Bridge? Here it is just in case you don't know it. I will be praying for you tonight. xo DianaReplyDelete
The Rainbows Bridge Poem
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Our pets are so important! Sorry to hear of Dorje's end. Just hoping there's a little doggie heaven out there for our sweet and loyal pet friends.ReplyDelete
Your dear dog looks so joyful in Steve's painting. What a heart breaking walk for you, the first without your dear companion.ReplyDelete
I am so very sorry for Dorje's passing. I have lost pets and it is so hard, like losing one of your children. Steve's painting is wonderful and you will always have that to remember her by.ReplyDelete
It's so very hard to lose a little furry member of the family. The worst thing about living with our precious animals is that they don't live long enough! We have had to put down several of our dogs and it is heartbreaking. Our prayers for comfort are on their way to you and your family. MimiReplyDelete
What a beautiful tribute to your dear friend and companion. I'm so sorry for your loss.ReplyDelete
Oh my friend I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved Dorje. This is actually the second time I've been to this post because earlier when I began to read I felt like I knew where it was headed. And there's nothing that makes me sadder than hearing about the loss of a family dog. It's like losing a precious person in your member. I know because we've lost two dogs and each time my heart broke. Time will ease your pain, but I do remember how my husband consoled me by reminding me of what a great life we gave our furry family members. They knew nothing but love and I'm sure that's what Dorje's life was like with you and Steve. I can tell by that wonderful painting.ReplyDelete
This was a such a loving tribute and I felt like it gave me an idea of how special Dorje was to you and to everyone that knew her. And call me crazy but I firmly believe that we will be united with our dear dogs someday. Love bonds us forever, it's that simple.
I hope you are comforted by this. Give my condolences to Steve too.
My heart goes out to you. We lost our beloved Mandy years ago. She was with us for over 16 years. To this day we still miss her, she was family after all.ReplyDelete
How wonderful you had your dog for so long. It;s hard to let go .I love the rainbow storyReplyDelete
and yhe book you have now and the painting and the memories . They all will guide you .
I can see you walk on the beach ...just the two of you .....in silence ......
I send you a hug

I'm so very sorry for your loss. It is never easy & this being your first must be shocking to say the least. Even when it's expected due to age or illness, it's still so darn hard to say goodbye or see you later. May God heal your pain, rub your baby's belly for you & see you through with photo flashes of only good memories. HUGS. TammyReplyDelete
I'm so sorry. It must be very hard for you and your husband.ReplyDelete
Oh, Carol - I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dear old friend. I will be keeping your family in my prayers.ReplyDelete
Awe so sorry. Dogs are such a big part of families. My husband and I love our Frenchie and it's going to be a sad day when he goes. What a sad post. But it looks like she had a great life!ReplyDelete
so sad to hear this, carol. steve's painting is an amazing tribute to her life:)ReplyDelete
This brought tears to my eyes. I am so sorry for the loss of your precious Dorje. Sounds like she lived a full and happy life. Steve's painting is beautiful and I'm sure it will bring a smile to your heart each time you look at it. Enjoy your precious memories.....VickyReplyDelete
This is hard to take. I am convinced that dogs (or another beloved pet), are given to us for a reason. We are the caretakers of the earth and all that is within, and yet THEY or the earth are the entities that move us, change our lives forever. I am with you in spirit my friend. Though I've never lost a pet to eternity, I watch from the sidelines, and it's too difficult to bear.ReplyDelete
Peace sweet Carol AND Steve. Anita
I'm sorry to read of the loss of your loving and faithful friend.ReplyDelete
SO sorry your dog has passed. It is just horrible to loose a pet (and we have lost many). On a brighter note: I love your new header.ReplyDelete
This was such a hard post to read...............I have a lump in my throat as I type Carol.ReplyDelete
It's the most difficult part of having a furry son or daughter - the letting go - saying goodbye -
Have done it too many times -
Much love to you my friend,
Oh Carol,ReplyDelete
My heart goes out to you and Steve. We felt that loss a few months back so I understand that heart ache and sadness. They are such a special part of our lives and when you have to say goodbye it is so difficult. My heart and thoughts are with you. I am so sorry for this loss in your lives.
Carol I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Dorje! I know this loss must be so hard for you. My Charlie Kitty is almost 15 and I am treasuring each day with him. Sending you a big hug and hoping your memories give you comfort.ReplyDelete
Carol and Steve, There are no words I can say to comfort you except to say I am so sorry to hear that you lost your beloved Dorje. May the wonderful memories you have bring you joy during this time of sorrow.ReplyDelete
Blessings, Erin
I am so sorry -- I know this is so hard, having been there. I feel your pain.ReplyDelete
Oh, Carol...I am so sad for you and Steve. I have cold chills and tears in my eyes from reading this. I am so, so sorry that you lost your beloved Dorje. Hugs and love to both of you.ReplyDelete
Oh Carol...I am so so sorry! There is nothing worse than losing a friend. Nothing. She was a beautiful dog. I will be praying for you and your family during this time....I am sending you a big hug. I hope that talking about her tonight makes some of the tears go away for a bit...Love to you...NicoleReplyDelete
So sad for your loss. That is a gorgeous painting of her. I thought it was a photograph!!! Amazing.ReplyDelete
It's a sad time but she live forever in your heart, that is a wonderful painting.ReplyDelete
Oh my heart is hurting reading this. It is so sad and so hard when we loose these wonderful dogs. They are just so full of unconditional love. It sounds like such a nice place to live where people rally care about each other and their pets. (((((HUGS))))ReplyDelete
I'm so sorry. We lost a dog as well, and to this day we remember and think of Cathy. She had fallen out of a truck bed when she was just a pup, and my husband saw it happen. He tried to get the driver's attention but couldn't. He went back and picked up the poor hurt puppy and brought her to a vet. Paid the Bill and brought her home two days later. We both fell in love with her. Again,,,,I am so sorry for your hurt.ReplyDelete
Oh no, I'm so sorry. This brought tears to my eyes just reading about the loss of your precious companion Dorje. You were so lucky to have each other for so many years.ReplyDelete
So sorry for your loss. :-(ReplyDelete
I'm so very sorry! I've had dogs all my life and it only gets harder each time we lose one, but the joy they bring and the happy memories get me through until the next one arrives. If you've never heard of it, google "The Rainbow Bridge." It makes me feel better. Hope it will make you feel better, too!ReplyDelete
I know all too well the pain of having one of the best parts of your life not be there anymore. My precious Annie passed Dec 17th of last year and I still have tears well up in my eyes ... or unexpected gasps of pain when something reminds me of my missing me her so. Right now there is a dead spot in my heart and I have no idea if I ever will be ready to get another. So from one dog parent to another, I reach out and wrap my arms around you both and hold on tight. We will get through this but our four legged child will always be a part of us every day until we get to meet up with them again. Blessings to you....ReplyDelete

Oh my. We just lost our Casper last week and now you've lost your dear Dorje, it feels like too much loss. My heart is heavy with and for you, your girl was so beautiful and sweet. Can I just send a hug through this comment, and please know I'll be thinking about you each time I look at Casper's picture.ReplyDelete
I am so, so sorry to here about Dorje. Thank goodness you were able to give her a wonderful life and had such a sweet relationship with her. What a beautiful dog!ReplyDelete
:( I'm so sad for you. I love dogs, and this post breaks my heart. Our furbabies mean so much to us, and they forever hold a special place in our hearts. I am so, so sorry about Dorje.ReplyDelete

Oh I am so very sorry. I know well how it feels to love and lose a dog. We lost both of the dogs that my boys grew up with 3 summers ago. We still talk about them all the time just like they were here yesterday. You never do forget them and their unique ways. I'll be thinking about you. Sending hugs.ReplyDelete
I was so sorry to hear your sad news. We know how much our dogs become such an important and big part of our family and it is such a wrench when the time comes to say goodbye. Thinking of you all, I'm sure you will some wonderful memories of your times together but initially life will be hard.ReplyDelete

I write to you with a heavy heart. I was so sorry to read this. I have lost three dogs in my life so far and dread the day when my Coco will leave us. There are no words that could relieve the sorrow you must be feeling but from the comments you have received and the lovely people that surround you, I hope this gives you comfort. With my heartfelt thoughts. Chel xReplyDelete
Hi Carol,ReplyDelete
I am so sorry about Dorje. I have never had a dog as I am allergic to both dogs and cats, but I can sympathize with you as it is a tremendous loss. Steve's painting must be consoling, as it has captured Dorje in such a state of liveliness. I'm sure she will be greatly missed by her beach buddies, as well. She was so loved. Hang in there, my friend.
My heart breaks for you Carol. What more can I say? I'm so sorry. PattiReplyDelete
I read your newer post and really didn't understand until I scrolled down, my heart breaks for both of you! I dread the day believe me, Buster is such a part of our lives as yours was. She is so happy walking on the Lord's beach now!ReplyDelete
I couldn't help but cry when I read that post because I know how hard the first days without your dog must be. I hope you'll find comfort in remembering happy memories of her and in the idea that you gave her the best life. I'll be thinking of you.ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness. I'm so sorry. I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes. It's such a hard thing to go through. Sending hugs and healing your way.ReplyDelete
Such a beautiful story for such a beautiful dog. Long may she live on in your hearts and in your memories as she runs along the shoreline forever. Sending strength and love today and always. HxReplyDelete
I'm so sorry for your loss Carol. I write with tears streaming down my face because lying beside me as I type is the wee fluffy white one that means everything to me, and I can only imagine what you're going through.ReplyDelete
I am glad you have such wonderful friends and neighbours though it must be hard walking along your beautiful beach, my heart goes out to both of you xx
My heartfelt condolences for the loss of your dear friend, Dorje.ReplyDelete
I am so sad for your loss. Our pets are such an important part of our family and our daily lives. I am happy that your friends and family have been so supportive of you in this time of sorrow. Our kids had to leave their little dog behind when they went to ecuador for a year and we half heartedly adopted her. When the kids came back a year earlier than expected both DH and I thought 'oh no" they are going to want her back and we can't give her up!" They aren't taking her back and we are so relieved and right now they are living with us so Shelka has both herReplyDelete
packs within loving range and is so happy. I love the picture Steve painted of her and what a happy scene to remember her frolicking with you on your daily walks. May your hearts be filled with love and memories.

By chance, when looking for Cozy Little House, I came across your blog. When reading through you last few posts, I saw this one - about the loss of your beloved dog - I couldn't stop the tears that welled up, for your sadness, and also remembering the precious, pet-family-members we have lost the last few years - our Poodle, who was 14 years old, our Parakeet who was 17, and my beautiful Silver Chinchilla Persian who I got as a baby - she was just shy of 20 years old. Now, we have two wonderful Dachshund boys who are 9 and 7 years old.ReplyDelete
I am so sorry for your loss - she will forever live on in your lovely memories of her! :)
My thoughts have been with you since 'the day'. We helped our Pirta (American Eskimo) across the rainbow bridge 4 years ago. It still smarts. Can you email me directly a mailing address? I have a habit of sending a little something to friends who have lost a furry family member. HUgs! Cindy email@example.com
I was so sorry to read about your loss. I know just how difficult it is. Our 'little Rosie' (Cairn terrier) died four years ago today and there is not a day we don't miss her. It is easier now. We can talk about her and smile and be happy, but it does take time.ReplyDelete
There are few things more heartbreaking than losing a beloved pet. I'm so very sorry carol.ReplyDelete
Oh my...I'm so sorry to read about your loss. It's funny how these four legged creatures work their way into our hearts and life. My sheltie Dexter is 17 years old and I dread the day he leaves this earth. He's my buddy.ReplyDelete

DAILY WORD of BLESSED JAMES ALBERIONE 2022
To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the death of our founder, Blessed James Alberione, we will reflect on his words and use them as our daily guide.
PRAYER INTENTION for JUNE
The heart of Paul has become the Heart of Christ: and Je-sus has changed his heart of ferocious lion breathing threats and massacres into a very tender one. It is impossible to read the affectionate passages of the letters of St. Paul and not become emotional: they are words like those of the most loving of mothers (APim, 26).
St. Paul, our father, model, patron, teacher and advocate, will in his church have us all every morning, every day around him, and will communicate to us the spirit of the Divine Master because the heart of St. Paul is the heart of Jesus (APim, 35).
O Divine Spirit, fill my soul with your light, so that I may love God with all my mind; with fortitude, so that I may love my God with all my strength; fill my spirit with your fire, so that I may love my God with all my heart (BM, 430).
Pray to the Apostle Paul so that he may obtain for us that abundance of grace that he received from the Lord. Those who went to him on earth obtained so many spiritual goods and even material ones. Now that he is glorious in heaven we can ask him, hope in him and receive from him (APim, 45).
We shall imitate his virtues. We shall often ask ourselves especially: what would St. Paul do if he were in my place? (APim, 46).
Your Family is under the action of the Holy Spirit; he enlightens it, governs it, supports it, guides it. You will find the ways and means to fulfill all of your mandates under his guidance (APD47, 160).
Mary's power of intercession: God will not refuse anything legitimate to the One whom he venerates and loves more than all creatures. The goodness of a mother who showers on us, members of Jesus Christ's mystical Body, the affection she bears for its Head, her divine Son (AE, 205).
Know St. Paul and thank the Lord for having done so many wonders through the Apostle Paul: converting him from Judaism, enriching him with so much knowledge, enkindling him with the purest love for Jesus, filling him with the most holy zeal and giving him constancy up to martyrdom in preaching the Holy Gospel (APim, 45).
There are two sins opposed to hope: despair and presumption… St. Paul was never presumptuous… The fruits of hope are a sweet serenity in the midst of pains, the constant consideration of ourselves as pilgrims here on earth since we have a better homeland (APim, 53.54).
Imitate a little the virtues of St. Paul, particularly those in which he distinguished himself more: humility, charity, promptness in corresponding to the graces of the Lord and in addition those virtues that have attracted the admiration of the whole world, that is, his zeal for souls, his spirit of sacrifice and his unshakable faith (APim, 45).
St. Paul was so full of love for Our Lord, so convinced of his doctrine that he always spoke of it, everywhere, with great ardour, night and day (APim, 46).
The Lord has given us great grace in giving us St. Paul as Father, Teacher, Model, Friend and Protector. He is a miracle of doctrine, a prodigy of zeal, a hero in every virtue (APim, 43).
Charity towards God can be considered as the state of grace. Indeed, it is inseparable from the state of grace. It is so necessary that St. Paul writes the hymn to charity (APim, 56).
May all your life be a "Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit". You will spend eternity in this: to glorify the Father through the Son, to go to the Father through the Son, in the Holy Spirit! This is the way which Mary followed, which St. Paul indicates to you, the way which you must take (APD47, 495).
The faith of St. Paul was constant in the face of the great-est difficulties. After his conversion, he never had any more a moment of doubt, not a moment of hesitation, even amidst grave difficulties (APim, 50).
St. Paul, full of joy at the thought of heaven, said: we are happy because of our hope. And elsewhere: we have great comfort in thinking of the hope that is in our heart like a firm anchor that almost succeeds in tearing open the veil that hides heaven from us. We are children of God. If children, we are heirs, heirs of God, co-heirs of heaven (APim, 52-53).
The whole life of the Apostle is charity: it is an apostolate of good for others, so much so that St. John Chrysostom wrote: "Just as iron, when placed in the fire, also becomes fire, so Paul, aflame with love, became totally love" (APim, 59).
Put on the loins of mercy, kindness, humility, patience, supporting one another and pardoning each other's of-fences. He exhorts us to love one another in peace as if we formed a family, or, better, just one body and one soul, one supporting the defects of the others (APim, 60).
Jesus wants to feed and satisfy you with Himself. "Who-ever is thirsty, let him come to me and drink". "I am the living bread come down from heaven" (APD47, 351).
The Eucharist is under the appearance of the most com-mon food. Yet it contains Jesus Christ, God and Man. Likewise, must it be for the apostle of the press. In the simple format of a book or a news sheet, presented in an unpretentious way, he must give God's truth to men and women of all circumstances, in a form that is low-cost and readily accessible, just like bread (AE, 161).
St. Paul had a penetrating and lively gaze, his demeanour gentle and affable. His genius is extraordinary, his will indomitable, his virtue heroic, his eloquence irresistible, his heart generous, his science vast, his spirit ready and his versatility one of a kind (APim, 78).
The life of St. Paul was totally a life of obedience. Jesus talked to him either directly or through St. Peter; now through visions, now through happenings and special cir-cumstances. And St. Paul was always ready for the voice of God: whatever his intentions were or his special views, obedience was above all else (APim, 65-66).
In Truth, what did St. Paul do? He sowed the Word of God everywhere. For that purpose, he chose the most re-puted places and locations to make himself heard by the greatest number of persons. He looked for them and asked for them at the synagogues, he asked for them in the Areopagus at Athens, at the tribunal of Agrippa, the Theater of the great Diana of Ephesus… (APim, 19-20).
"Jesus Christ, though being rich", says St. Paul, "made Himself poor for us". He wanted a poor mother, he lived in poverty and he died very poor. One who detaches his heart from money acquires spiritual freedom to serve the Lord (APim, 68).
How great, therefore, must be our trust and esteem in the power of St. Paul! If he was that holy, how much will the Lord hear his prayers! If he was so powerful on earth, how much more he must be in heaven… Let us never doubt that he cannot answer our questions (APim, 108).
Mons. Ketteler wrote that if St. Paul returned to the world, he would make himself a journalist, and it is sure that he would cling to the best means to do good, and this today is the press (APim, 93).
Already during the time of Paul but especially today, the organization is the work of works: in unity there is strength. A thousand disorganized will don't have the power of ten men united together (APim, 105).
How many lives are extinguished after having lived in vain! How many works are empty! Remember what Jesus said of St. John: "He was a lamp alight and shining". First, be ardent in order to enlighten (APD47, 284).
St. Paul in his ardent zeal for the Christian religion knew how to multiply his enterprises and works, making him-self all for all in order to save all (APim, 104).
St. Paul had a true zeal because it was founded on love for Our Lord Jesus Christ. Already we have considered it: his heart burned with the most intense and pure affection for the Lord, on account of which he knew how to suffer all and bear all. And he longed for nothing except to make known Jesus Christ and gain souls for him (APim, 86-87).

Choosing Custom Home Builders
There are many factors to consider when choosing a custom home builder. Among the most important are the features that you want in your new home and the hands-on approach that you want. Choosing a builder can be difficult, especially if you don't have any previous experience. A quick Google search may not provide you with enough information. To narrow down your search, meet with several builders in person.
After you've chosen a builder, you'll want to coordinate with him throughout the process to ensure that your new home is built according to your specifications. While a custom home builder won't do the actual building, they will be on hand to answer any questions that you may have. This way, you can have an active involvement in the building process.
Another key feature to look for in a builder is their cost structure. Cost-plus pricing is a popular method used by home builders, because the costs of building a home are difficult to predict. Usually, the builder will provide a ballpark figure before collecting bids from subcontractors. However, it is best to consult with a local professional to get a more accurate price.
In addition to custom homes, some of the top builders also provide a variety of remodeling and renovation services. These services can help you save money and maintain your new home. They can help you select appliances, flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas that need updating. Some even provide interior design services as well as home repair.
Another company that provides services to build custom homes is Caruso Builders. The company is known for its attention to detail and commitment to providing the highest-quality custom homes. The company also offers a stress-free home-building experience. They have been building homes in the Capital Region for over three decades. Their team has extensive experience in building any type of custom home and has expertise in restoration and remodeling.
A custom home builder must also be aware of the local codes. Moreover, the custom home builder should coordinate and manage all subcontractors to ensure that they are doing their jobs and delivering the work on time. The company should also keep tabs on costs and communicate any changes to the client. After the home is completed, the builder should provide a checklist of tasks that need to be completed by the client before the home owner can move in.
Production home builders offer more affordable homes. These builders are often able to build homes within established neighborhoods. Their team takes the time to study the neighborhood and the existing houses to build homes that are both unique and blend into the area. As a result, these builders are able to build the same size home for a lower price than custom home builders. They also have access to a larger pool of lots.
Custom home builders in California can offer a wide range of designs. While their website doesn't seem to be updated, the pictures displayed on the gallery of their homes showcase the customization that goes into each home. In addition to custom home building, they can also handle remodeling projects and repairs. In addition, their teams will calculate maintenance intervals for the home's systems.

Hearing Loss – Can Vitamins and also Supplements Work?
Vitamins and minerals– we all know they benefit our overall health and wellness. But did you recognize those benefits encompass our ears too as well as assist hearing loss? From potassium as well as magnesium to vitamins C as well as E, nutrients load a strike when it involves hearing healthcare. Let's dive into which vitamins and supplements are known to aid ear health and wellness.
Minerals for Hearing Loss Renovation
Minerals are materials discovered in water as well as soil, which plants after that take in. When we eat plant items (or pets that have actually consumed these plant items), our bodies reach reap the benefits of these beneficial nutrients.
Magnesium and also various other minerals have actually been shown to help or boost typical hearing conditions such as age-related hearing loss, ear infections as well as ringing in the ears ( buzzing in the ears). Right here's a closer take a look at a few of those minerals.
Magnesium prevents internal ear damages
Noise-induced hearing loss is a significant wellness concern amongst adults. Nevertheless, researchers have actually discovered magnesium might play an crucial function in protecting our ears from the damaging impacts of noise. Loud sounds trigger the manufacturing of cost-free radical particles in our ear, which damage the delicate hair cells of the inner ear. Considering that these hair cells are needed to transfer audio from the ear to the mind, this damages can lead to noise-induced hearing loss.
The good news: proof suggests that magnesium is an important ear health and wellness mineral since it helps obstruct the task of these cell-damaging particles. In one research, 300 subjects that were given a magnesium supplement prior to extended exposure to loud noise were significantly much less most likely to create noise-induced hearing loss than the control team.
Many people with noise-induced hearing loss likewise suffer from ringing in the ears. Magnesium has been shown to soothe the seriousness of ringing in the ears symptoms. A healthy and balanced supply of magnesium likewise keeps the blood vessels relaxed, permitting sufficient blood to stream throughout the body, including via the vessels in the internal ear.
Potassium assists convert sound
Potassium assists our body do a great deal of things, including aid it regulate the liquid in our blood and cells. Researchers have discovered the liquid in our inner ear needs potassium as part of its essential process of converting noise right into nerve impulses that get sent out to the brain. Potassium levels in our inner ear decrease as we age, which can add to age-related hearing loss. Therefore, it is necessary to load up on potassium-rich foods to aid maintain a healthy supply as well as equilibrium of potassium in the internal ear.
Zinc fights off bacteria and also viruses
This micronutrient is known for its immune-boosting powers and also capacity to aid combat colds. Zinc helps trigger and produce T-cells (T-lymphocytes)– our bodies' protector cells that are especially made to acknowledge as well as damage bacteria, infections and also other intruders. While research studies have actually revealed mixed results on whether this mineral in fact avoids ear infections, it's not a negative idea to sustain up on foods abundant in this anti-inflammatory mineral for your hearing health. One hearing-related issue that zinc has actually been revealed to aid is abrupt hearing loss. Study reveals zinc supplementation can help recoup as well as improve hearing for those experiencing abrupt sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL).
Note: Contact your doctor first before including zinc supplement to your regimen, specifically if you take prescription antibiotics or diuretics, as zinc can adversely interact with these types of medications.
A Powerful Vitamin Combination for Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
Researchers just recently uncovered which vitamins to look for in order to deal with noise-induced and age-related hearing loss. If your hearing loss is related to direct exposure to loud noise, think about vitamins A, C, and also E taken alongside magnesium. If your hearing loss is just an effect of growing older, folic acid may assist maintain your ears sharp.
To lower noise-induced hearing loss, vitamins A, C, and E coupled with magnesium may be the solution. Noise-induced hearing loss can occur from one occurrence alone or as the outcome of long-lasting exposure to loud noise. Either way, it's a prevalent trouble– regarding 30 million Americans are routinely subjected to unsafe noise degrees.
Listening To Scientist Recommend Vitamins A, C as well as E.
Researchers discovered that this nutrient blend aids protect against noise-induced hearing loss by blocking the development of complimentary radicals. We commonly link complimentary radicals with medical troubles like cancer cells, however did you know that totally free radicals can also harm your hearing?
Right here's how. When the ear is exposed to loud noises, the cells of the internal ear produce complimentary radicals. When those free radicals can be found in contact with the tiny hair cells in the ear, they destroy the hair cells, reducing hearing ability. Once the hair cells are dead, they can not grow back. At the same time, the cost-free radicals restrict blood flow to the ear, making hearing a lot more tough.
The hearing specialists reported, on the sites Listening to Loss Assistance as well as Health Talk, that vitamins A, C and E work along with magnesium to quit the free radicals from developing in reaction to loud noise. The combination stopped an excellent 80 percent of noise-induced hearing loss. While the vitamins and magnesium taken alone somewhat assisted hearing loss, when assembled– they were dramatically a lot more efficient!
Because free radicals continue to form also after direct exposure to loud noise, taking the nutrient mix as several as 3 days after the incident can still help in reducing hearing damage.
Any kind of longer than that, nonetheless, as well as the damage can't be minimized. From soldiers who've served on the front lines, to workers in loud manufacturing facilities, to teens that like their songs cranked up, this finding has the potential to assist the vast number of individuals who are revealed to loud noises for either job or play.
Folic Acid for Age-Related Hearing Loss.
Even if you have actually never worked in a loud environment or taken pleasure in listening to loud songs, you still may find it obtaining harder to hear as you age. If so, you aren't alone– one in 3 Americans over age 70 cope with some level of hearing loss. Fortunately, avoiding age-related hearing loss may be as easy as upping your folic acid intake.
Age-related hearing loss can take place partially due to the amino acid homocysteine. This crucial amino acid causes hearing problem by decreasing blood circulation to the inner ear.
A study found that males and females with high levels of homocysteine in their blood were an alarming 65 percent most likely to suffer from hearing loss. That's where folic acid is available in. By assisting the body break down homocysteine, folic acid prevents the pesky things from reducing blood circulation to the ear.
In a 2010 research, audiologists found that individuals with reduced levels of folic acid were dramatically more likely to experience high-frequency hearing loss. As a benefit– due to the fact that too much homocysteine in the blood might also indicate heart disease, stroke as well as mental deterioration,– you're doing far more than simply aiding your hearing when you up your intake of folic acid. You can, certainly, find folic acid in supplement form, however you can also squeeze extra in your diet by choosing beans, citrus fruits, whole grains and also dark, leafy vegetables.
So you see, numerous nutrients assist avoid hearing loss, consisting of vitamins A, C, E, folic acid as well as magnesium. Age-related hearing loss and noise-induced hearing loss impact countless people in America. Clinical scientists as well as audiology professionals recommend these basics for optimum hearing wellness. Since you understand the significance of dietary supplements for hearing troubles, start listening today as well as boost your hearing!

2021 became as soon as a immense 365 days for cryptocurrency. El Salvador grew to change into the first nation to adopt Bitcoin (BTC) as lawful delicate. In November 2021, the worth of Bitcoin hit an all-time high drawing approach the psychologically well-known tag of $70,000. And, all along the ability, enterprise influencers fancy Elon Musk were tweeting their enthusiasm about cryptocurrency extra broadly.
I wait for 2022 will proceed to be a just bigger 365 days for digital currencies as the market grows to attain 1 billion americans. Listed below are the 5 most eminent traits that I look on the horizon for the 365 days to approach help.
Institutional procuring and selling volume will grow
2022 shall be a 365 days for the duration of which institutional and retail cryptocurrency adoption, and procuring and selling in explicit, will proceed to grow. Fintech stalwarts PayPal and Sq. — along with cell stock-procuring and selling platform Robinhood — have all made it more easy to blueprint cessation, sell and replace crypto. And public companies fancy MicroStrategy, Tesla, Galaxy and Sq. all added well-known amounts of Bitcoin to their balance sheets in 2021.
What's riding this enhance? With the exception of upward fundamental momentum, two pieces of evidence mirror the continuing maturity of the institutional crypto market: market cap and infrastructure.
In 2015, the overall crypto market cap became as soon as spherical $5 billion. As of December 2021, it's grown vastly to above $2 trillion. Bitcoin's market cap on my own became as soon as $3.6 billion on Jan. 4, 2015, and its fresh market cap is spherical $900 billion. Even the market cap of amount two crypto, Ether (ETH), which has a bigger ecosystem of endeavor functions, is spherical $400 billion, which is cessation to Visa or JP Morgan Race.
Even 5 years previously, core infrastructure became as soon as noteworthy less developed in crypto. Institutions were struggling to treasure the style to custody, replace and decided and resolve crypto transactions in a reputable, compliant ability. There weren't any real top brokers in crypto. Now the infrastructure is plot extra developed and establishments have the next working out and comfort stage with the crypto landscape. As such, I wait for institutional procuring and selling will proceed to grow.
Even so, situation crypto procuring and selling volume, in particular Bitcoin, is unruffled highly fragmented.
Institutional adoption will also speed the enhance of the crypto derivatives market. More regulation will approach too, which also can furthermore be a in reality sure trend as lengthy as it entails public discourse and is adapted for enterprise products to enable for adoption and innovation whereas also meeting regulators' desires.
Linked: What also can unruffled the crypto enterprise seek info from from regulators in 2022? Consultants solution, Segment 1 and Segment 2
In July 2021, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen urged regulators to behave rapidly to provide a regulatory framework for stablecoins. Since then, U.S. Securities and Commerce Rate (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler has also incessantly called for regulation on this region and indicated here is on the SEC's agenda.
More institutional provider services and tools will formulation to market
Restful, establishments have a crucial need for the lovely services and products and tools. There's been a flurry of exercise amongst startups making an are attempting to give make stronger services and products, a lot like crypto asset storage, safety and administration and investment products, as effectively as mining hardware and instrument and fee infrastructure.
Loads of companies had raised funding rounds of no longer no longer up to $300 million by August 2021, along with Blockchain.com, BlockFi, Fireblocks, Ledger and Paxos. I seek info from this to proceed as novel companies emerge to give extra accessibility into the crypto market than ever earlier than. This, in turn, will launch novel doorways for exiguous and medium-sized funds.
Altcoins will change into extra standard
Next 365 days I also seek info from to salvage altcoins grow in popularity as enthusiasts learn even extra about their diverse employ cases. Ether (ETH), shall we embrace, is pushed by DApp trend with a rare ecosystem. On the opposite hand, attributable to Ethereum's scalability disorders and high gasoline charges, it has also change into challenged by blockchain upstarts fancy Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA) and Avalanche (AVAX). Traders look gargantuan enhance alternatives, whereas traders look volatility and imperfect-pair arbitrage alternatives.
More broadly, I wait for altcoins will change into extra standard as investors look suggestions to diversify their crypto portfolios. A myth from Nasdaq effectively-known that as of October 2021, there were extra than 100 altcoins valued at extra than $1 billion, which "[implies] a flourishing digital ecosystem." Whereas altcoin costs also can furthermore be equally unstable — and investors also can unruffled attain their research first — many altcoins, along with Solana and Polkadot, proceed to top lists of cryptocurrencies with basically the most doable to change into the subsequent immense thing.
Linked: When and why did the note 'altcoin' lose its relevance?
Volume will shift far from Bitcoin into the altcoin Ether and is even now starting up to shift. For extra proof, stare to digital forex asset manager Grayscale Investments, which recently expanded its portfolio of investment products to embody a trust targeted on Solana.
"We have had a entrance row seat to the mainstream acceptance and adoption of crypto and an increasing number of salvage that investors are diversifying their publicity beyond digital resources fancy Bitcoin and Ethereum," Grayscale CEO Michael Sonnenshein acknowledged in a fresh assertion, adding:
"Our family of Grayscale products will proceed to make bigger alongside this thrilling asset class, as we live dedicated to offering investors alternatives to access the digital financial system."
Regulated DeFi for establishments is coming
Decentralized finance, or the emerging ecosystem of business functions that employ blockchain know-how, will have a immense 365 days in 2022. The general impress locked (TVL) in DeFi grew vastly in 2021.
To this level, establishments have remained on the DeFi sidelines because counterparties in DeFi transactions are largely unknown. Whether or no longer an institution desires to be a liquidity supplier (LP) or replace on a decentralized replace (DEX), regulatory readability and compliance are paramount. Here's why Aave launched a permissioned DeFi platform, Aave Arc.
In most DEXs, LPs attain no longer must pass compliance tests a lot like Know Your Buyer and Anti-Money Laundering requirements. Having a uncover forward to 2022, I seek info from DeFi enhance to speed. Two challenges is step by step addressed: lack of regulatory readability and absence of counterparty compliance tests.
Linked: From DeFi 365 days to decade: Is mass adoption here? Consultants solution, Segment 1, Segment 2, Segment 3
More regulatory readability is probably going to emerge as the SEC and diverse regulatory bodies provide novel guidance. And novel DeFi platforms for establishments will make traction. These platforms would require LPs and traders to pass compliance tests and will provide ample liquidity for establishments.
With extra readability and the lovely platforms in assign, extra establishments will enter the DeFi region.
Security solutions will change into extra prevalent
Hacks have lengthy been a element of crypto's history. In 2014, shall we embrace, Bitcoin replace Mt. Gox filed for monetary catastrophe after hackers reportedly stole thousands and thousands of U.S. bucks. Four years later, hackers stole from but another cryptocurrency replace, Coincheck. And in August 2021, DeFi platform Poly Network misplaced $600 million to hackers. MonoX Finance, but another DeFi platform, misplaced $31 million even extra recently.
Linked: Legend on crypto replace hacks: 2011–2020
Now, crypto exchanges are starting up to make moves to provide protection to themselves and shall be predisposed to partner with effective custodians to select an eye on custody risks. To illustrate, Coinbase obtained cryptographic safety company Unbound Security in November 2021 to enhance its multi-birthday celebration computational capabilities. PayPal also obtained but another digital asset safety supplier, Curv. I seek info from to salvage similar deals right thru 2022.
The crypto enterprise moves like a flash with many twists and turns. But one thing is jog: The signposts for 2022 negate persevered enhance.
This text would no longer admire investment advice or suggestions. Every investment and procuring and selling trudge entails risk, and readers also can unruffled habits their very have research when making a resolution.
The views, ideas and opinions expressed here are the creator's on my own and assign no longer basically mirror or signify the views and opinions of Cointelegraph.
Christophe Michot is the director of enterprise trend at Apifiny, a world digital asset procuring and selling community for establishments. Sooner than Apifiny, Michot became as soon as a senior manager at Kraken and Apple, and a Google alumnus. Michot brings over 20 years of ride in the tech enterprise, along with 10 years dedicated to Bitcoin and crypto.
