Righteous Gentiles Honored in Warsaw, But Poland's Record Remains Abysmal
Latest update: December 12th, 2012
Some 55 Poles who have been named Righteous Among Nations over the years by Yad Vashem attended a luncheon gathering Sunday at the Warsaw Marriott Hotel sponsored by the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous.
Unfortunately, as highly as Jews praise the sacrifices made by these brave Poles, it is difficult to overlook Poland's abysmal record in caring for its Jewish citizens under German occupation.
To date, about 6,400 Poles, out of a population of more than 22 million, have been named Righteous Among the Nations. That's 0.21 percent (less than a quarter of 1 percent) of Polish Jews receiving help from Poles. Some 3 million Polish Jews perished in the Holocaust, many of them turned in by their Polish neighbors.
In the Netherlands, with a Jewish population of 154,887, there were 5,204 gentiles named Righteous Among Nations, which comes to 3.6 percent of Dutch Jews being saved by their neighbors.
In France, where 350,000 Jews, including many refugees, lived at the beginning of the war, there were 3,513 Righteous Gentiles, meaning about 1 percent of French Jews were saved by their neighbors.
In a series of speeches at the Warsaw event, Israeli Ambassador Zvi Rav-Ner and other Jewish representatives thanked them for their actions and praised their heroism.
"You, the righteous of the world, think your behavior was ordinary, but we all know it was something more than that. It was truly extraordinary," said Stanlee Stahl, the executive vice president of the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous.
Those who attended the event called it a "moving occasion," particularly given the age of most of the rescuers in attendance.
At a ceremony in Krakow one week before the Warsaw gathering, Rav-Ner posthumously honored five Polish women as Righteous Gentiles, presenting the awards to their grandchildren.
In Belgium, with a Jewish population of 100,000 on the eve of World War 2, there were 1,612 Righteous Gentiles, who managed to save 1.6 percent of their Jewish neighbors.
Even the record of Germans living in Nazi Germany was slightly better than that of the Polish citizenry. With 214,000 Jews in 1937, there were 510 Righteous Gentiles who saved about 0.24 percent of the local Jews.
The New York based Jewish Foundation for the Righteous was established in 1986 to offer financial help to gentiles who saved Jews during the Holocaust. The organization supports more than 750 needy rescuers in 22 countries. The foundation also runs an educational program in the U.S.

Instead of reading some documents of that time or at least listening to people who lived then in occupied Poland, Mr. Yanower created a world of his own, a world of phantasy and hatred. I'm a naturalized American, formerly a Jewish Pole. I was there during the war, I talked to people, I read materials. The most blatant lie for me is comparing Poland to some Western European countries. As Mr.Yanower undoubtedly knows Poland was the only country among mentioned by him where the Germans imposed death penalty on those that hid Jews. If a Jew was discovered the entire family of the rescuers was murdered. The fact that Poland was also the poorest among his list of countries is also of great importance: people lived in crowded quarters and didn't have enough to eat themselves. Yes, there were antisemites in Poland. Even some of them helped Jews (the famous writer and creator of Zegota a Polish underground organization that helped Jews comes to mind). Some of the other antisemites were willing to collaborate with the German occupier to report on hidng Jews. There were also others that for money reported on Jews as well as on Polish underground fighters. The Polish Government in Exile (London, England) treated this scum with no mercy: if caught they were executed if only this was possible.
My father, who lost his entire family in Poland, told me: "For a thousand years we lived there — and still they turned us in. May they all burn."
Racial policies against Jews were in place years before the German occupation. Limits on Jewish life was not a German invention. The Germans picked Poland for the location of the death camps because they knew that country was a fertile ground for Jew hatred.
What I find the most loathsome is the Polish idea of their own victimhood. OMG, at least hide your head in shame and shut up, hoping no one will notice.
And, incidentally, how do you explain the pogroms against Jews AFTER the poor muselmen came back from the ovens to their home towns? Who forced those on your poor Poles?
Yori, may I please post your comment on my blog? With or without your name attached, as you prefer? Thank you.
Yori, I hope this works for you. Perhaps you would like to post on the blog and converse with Polish Americans who might respond to your words? http://bieganski-the-blog.blogspot.com/2012/07/may-poles-burn.html
Can someone inform me on the topic of restitution? Is it accurate to suggest that since the end of WW2, Poland has been remiss in compensating Jewry? Is it true to say that Warsaw is fearful that undertaking such a morally justified action would bankrupt the country?
Mr. Yanover overlooks much historical content and important facts. He exaggerates Polish Catholic behavior, carelessly applies collective guilt to the entire nation, and forgets to ask and answer why Poland had the largest Jewish population prior to the outbreak of WWII.
It is an ironic twist of history that Jews are demanding restitution for property confiscated by Germany during the war and the Soviets after the war. These demands should be addressed to Berlin and Moscow.
Yori Yanover "The Germans picked Poland"? The first victims of the camps were mostly Polish Catholics, followed by Soviet POWs. Jews were not sent to the camps en masse until the implementation of the Final Solution in 1942. And yes, Poles were also targeted by the Germans, with the result that they killed equal numbers of Polish Christians and Polish Jews. Hitler extolled Germans to "kill without mercy all men, women and children of Polish language and nationality." Your anti-Polonism is clouding your perception of history.
Yori Yanover "…hide your head in shame and shut up…" Wow. You obviously need a few history lessons.
To compare Poland's righteous rescuers to other Western European nations is beyond moronic. To your "hide your head in shame" retort, please have some of your own medicine: did you know that the percentage of Nazi-collaborating Jews that turned in fellow Jews is roughly the same as non-Jewish Poles that turned in Jews for money? Furthermore, who helped guard the ghettos along with the Baltic Nazi-collaborators and the Ukrainians?
Lastly, why did Poland not instill a Quisling government with the Germans? Why were there no all-Polish SS Divisions? Why, only in Poland, was there a death penalty for so much as giving a glass of water to a Jew?
You sir, are a bigot.
There are Poles living in my family's property today. At least I should be able to collect rent.
And there are countless Poles, including my own family, who will never recover property confiscated by the Soviet-imposed communist regime. The relentless harrassment and denigration of Poland and the distortion of its history will not abate until the Jewish community is satisfied by "reparations".
Mr. Yanover's original text and subsequent blog posts are laced with hate speech, something that an 'editor' ought to know better. Don't be surprised if you receive a visit from the Anti-Defamation League. So much for understanding and respect for those who perished.
My reply is to pose several questions to Mr. Yanover.
Was WWII history taught in the school(s) you attended?
Have you read Bloodlands: Europe between Hitler & Stalin by Timothy Snyder? If not, which books do you recommend on the subject?
Since you seem to want to collect on a Warsaw building, were you aware that 85% of all the buildings in Warsaw were destroyed by the German military and 250,000 Polish citizens were murdered as they participated in the 1944 uprising (another on-going attempt at ridding themselves of the German oppressors) while the Soviet army sat and watched for two months?
-Are you aware that it was the German Nazi Regime that murdered 6 million Polish citizens? If not, then please advise.
-Did you know that over 400 entire Polish villages were burned to the ground and all of the inhabitants murdered by the German military as a punishment for often just ONE villager aiding a fellow villager that was Jewish?
Your sentence that accuses of collaboration and moral failure is curious…whose collaboration or lack thereof and moral failure are you referring to exactly? The Jewish?? The Polish?? The Polish Jew?? The Germans?? The Americans and Brits?? The dead??
-Do you know why 2 million adult Polish Jews failed to join up and fight for their nation, their freedom and their children? I don't, but I'd like to be educated, should you know. Did the average Polish Jew in 1939, 1940, 1941 have the expectation that someone else is responsible for their life and their survival?
-The responsibility of WWII with its loss of 55 MILLION souls is justly laid at the feet of Germany and Soviet Russia and their horrifying ideologies. Don't you agree?
-Did you know that British officials and the President of the United States of America were visited by Home Army resistance fighter Jan Karski and were told in no uncertain terms what the German regime was doing. That the Germans had been torturing and murdering ethnic Poles for years in concentration camps and now had begun an extermination of Polish Jews en masse the likes the world had never seen? This news fell on deaf ears and those governments chose to do nothing. Shouldn't they be held up for ransom too?
-Why is it that you hold Poland and its ethnic citizens in contempt for what the Germans and Soviets did to those of Jewish faith? What exactly do you believe should have been done differently?
You, Mr. Yanover, seem to be in the camp accusing Poles of not doing enough. Have you overlooked that it took the combined might of the US, the UK, and the USSR (when it finally changed sides), plus the Polish forces fighting with Britain in the West, plus the armies of the various British Commonwealth countries (Canada, Australia, NZ, India etc., etc.) to defeat Nazi Germany? Not one of these forces ever came to the assistance of occupied Poland. And yet people unthinkingly assume that unarmed civilians should have stopped the German atrocities. Also, very few people know that for almost TWO YEARS Poles were invaded by and subjected to occupation by BOTH the Wehrmacht and the Red Army SIMULTANEOUSLY.
In terms of post war compensation, all Central and Eastern European civilians should be compensated by Russia for the illegal takeover of their gov'ts, land, possessions and tens of millions of lives post war. And while we are at it, the 'Allies' should generously donate as well since they gave Stalin land and properties and the ability for him to murder additional millions of lives with impunity. I ask you what recompense have the families of those 55 million killed during the war and those post war received for the loss of their loved ones?
Mr. Yanover, please take your case to the Germans for starting WW2 and bombing Warsaw, the Soviet/Russians for watching the carnage for 2 months and to the United States and Britain for handing over the citizens of Poland to 45 years of forced enslavement, torture and murder.

No matter your age, you can nurture your retirement nest egg.
Follow the lead of five families who are doing it right with smart retirement planning.
The Bangs:
Live Beneath Your Means
Kevin and Heather Bang remember the quizzical look on their mortgage lender's face.
It was 1999, and the young couple was preparing to buy a 1,400-square-foot, three-bedroom home in Cleveland Heights. "He glanced at our financial statements," recalls Kevin, 39. "Then he looked up and asked us why we wanted to buy that house instead of a bigger one."
The lender would have approved the Bangs for more than their requested mortgage amount — about $80,000 — but the couple didn't need it. "We try to live in a way that feels comfortable without being excessive," Kevin says.
It's an often overlooked tenet of fiscal responsibility: Success doesn't have to yield stuff.
"Many people think the source of their financial problems is they don't make enough money," says Bill Russo, principal of Concord Financial Planners in Solon. "The truth is that many couples don't have an income problem; they have a spending problem."
Kevin can afford more midday visits to nearby Mustard Seed Market Café, but he usually carries a brown-bag lunch to his office at Cleveland-based Master Consulting Group, which offers employee-benefits strategies, group health insurance and other services. As the firm's co-owner and vice president, he often entertains clients, but never while wearing a tie that costs more than $20.
"I shop at places like Marshalls and outlet malls instead of higher-end stores," says Heather, 34, who stays at home with their 3-year-old son, Owen, and 8-month-old daughter, Alaire. "Basically, we just try to be economical instead of going for so-called 'high-quality' items."
The Bangs track expenses primarily through their online banking system, which quickly reveals how much they've spent in various categories during the past three, six and nine months.
Their outlook on frugality is likely to yield first-rate results: If a couple in their mid-30s each put $10 a day (excluding weekends) into a pretax retirement account that earned an annual return of 12 percent, its nest egg would total more than $2.3 million at age 65. The Bangs have saved at least 20 percent of their income for the past several years, investing the majority of the savings in mutual funds while also donating to their church and other charities.
The couple's formula can be a challenge. "Our budget had to change when Alaire came along," she says. "When you have an infant at home, you're constantly spending money on consumables."
The Bangs are also saving for their kids' education. Kevin paid for half of his tuition and expenses at Miami University, and Heather paid for the bulk of her tuition at the University of New Hampshire.
"It gave us both an appreciation for how much things cost, as well as the importance of not taking education for granted," Kevin says. Their parents didn't have the option of contributing to a Section 529 tax-deferred college savings plan, which the Bangs started this year for Owen and Alaire.
When Owen is a college freshman, Kevin will turn 55. The Bangs don't have definitive retirement plans, but they say they hope to make a difference in the community and "have enough savings to ensure the well-being of our family," he says. "Meanwhile, whatever successes and blessings come along, we won't interpret them as reasons to have fancier possessions."
The Krzywickis:
Pay Yourself First and Diversify
Before Doug and Laura Krzywicki write checks this month to Verizon, The Illuminating Co. and Columbia Gas of Ohio, they're going to pay someone more important — Doug and Laura Krzywicki.
The couple doesn't subscribe to the standard saving method: Take hard-earned dollars, pay everyone else — the government, the mortgage lender and the utility provider — and then see what's left.
"It's too easy to spend that remainder," says Doug, 43, CFO of a local manufacturing company. "If we don't have the money in our pocket or checking account to begin with, we can't lose it."
He and Laura, 41, treat their retirement savings contribution as their most important monthly bill. The Krzywickis contribute to Doug's 401(k) plan and decide each month where to allocate their savings from an investment menu that includes mutual funds; a Section 529 tax-deferred college savings plan for their 3-year-old daughter, Abigail; and a combination of interest-bearing and term-life insurance that would pay for Abigail's college education and the family's four-bedroom house in Hinckley if something tragic happened to either parent.
Pretax retirement accounts such as the 401(k) for companies, the 403(b) for nonprofit organizations and different types of IRAs basically work the same way: Money you put in isn't subject to taxes (income or capital gains) until you take it out. The catch: In most cases, you can't take it out until retirement age without incurring a stiff penalty.
These accounts allow you to pay yourself first instead of the government. Let's say you auto-deduct $100 from your paycheck each month and invest it in a pretax retirement account. (Most financial institutions enable such automatic deposits.) Normally for every $100 you make, you have to pay roughly $28 in federal taxes, $7 to $8 in Social Security taxes and $5 to $9 in state taxes, leaving you with about $60 to invest. The capital gains or dividends you earn would be reduced by taxes, too.
With a pretax account, you put the entire $100 to work for you. If a 30-year-old in the 28 percent tax bracket invests $100 a month in a tax-deferred account through the age of 65 and achieves 9 percent annual growth, he ends up with $294,178. Change it to a taxable account, and he ends up with $162,036.
While working for a Los Angeles-based publicly traded firm for eight years before becoming a stay-at-home-mom, Laura took advantage of her company's discounted stock purchase plan, which enabled employees to buy shares at 80 percent of the current price. When she stopped working, she rolled her 401(k) and pension into an IRA, giving the couple more control over their money. (With an IRA, investors can earmark contributions into stocks, bonds, mutual funds and other investment vehicles. That's generally not true of 401(k) plans.)
"We also make sure we don't put all our eggs into one basket," says Laura. About 75 percent of the couple's retirement money is in riskier, higher-yield investments such as growth stocks. The rest is in safer, relatively low-yield instruments such as fixed-return bonds and CDs.
The Krzywickis sought diversification broad market exposure, but not so much that they couldn't track their stocks easily. (Some financial planners recommend "target funds," which give investors a premixed portfolio that becomes more conservative as they near retirement.)
Doug and Laura also diversified within their investment vehicles. For example, he has a favorite mutual fund family — Calamos — but the couple's equities portfolio varies by size (large and small capitalization funds), industry (utilities, health care facilities) and location (domestic and international firms). "If one industry collapses like technology stocks did in 2000, we'll still be fine," Doug says.
The Krzywickis hope to pay for Abigail's college education and still have plenty left over to enjoy their golden years, perhaps spending winters in a golf/resort community in Arizona.
The Hawalds:
Eliminate Debt and Save Early
When Mark Hawald graduated from John Carroll University in 1977, he was a four-time All-American wrestler and a two-time National Champion. On the mat, he was priceless.
On paper, he was worthless.
Mark first calculated his net worth upon graduation, and remembers staring blankly at the bottom line. "The answer was literally negative," he says. "It was a sinking feeling, and I didn't want it to last long."
He had spent most of his savings on an engagement ring for his college sweetheart, Debbie. "I couldn't wait to go to work."
Mark and Debbie soon married, and he was hired to manage a company that sold machine tools, while she began a teaching career. At 25, Mark had a $40,000 salary, a $500 monthly expense account and access to the company's car. "I was living the high life, and I thought that's the way it would be for the rest of my career," he says.
The Hawalds bought a house in Solon in 1979 and began paying a 30-year mortgage at 10 percent interest.
That's when Mark and Debbie began a savvy fiscal strategy they still employ: Reduce debt by paying more than minimum amounts due. "Anytime we had extra cash at the end of the month or received a bonus," Mark says, "we used the money to achieve two goals: First pay down debt, then save for retirement.
"Even if it was just $50 a month, we added to our regular car payment or house payment."
He also began contributing monthly to a traditional IRA.
In 1983, things changed. The machine-tool firm closed, and Mark was out of a job. The couple had two kids — 4-year-old Joe and 1-year-old Mark — and little money in their savings account.
Dad decided to try out for the U.S. Olympic wrestling team that would compete in the 1984 Summer Games in Los Angeles. He funded the goal by cashing out his IRA, then worth more than $20,000. "We did what we thought we had to do," he says. "But we were violating a valuable rule: Never withdraw from a retirement account if you can prevent it."
Mark didn't make the team, but it didn't take him long to pin down well-paying work. The Hawalds restarted their aggressive debt-reduction plan, always paying their credit card balance in full and eradicating their 30-year mortgage in 10 years.
The couple also began teaching their sons the importance of saving money early in life, and the power of compound interest. The lessons sounded like this: If a 14-year-old invests $2,000 annually until he's 18 and not a penny more from ages 19 to 65 and his investment grows 10 percent, it will be worth $1,174,600 at retirement age. If he waits until he's 27 and then invests $2,000 each year until he's 65, the result is $805,185. The 14-year-old invests $68,000 less and earns $369,415 more. In 1995, when Joe and Mark were 16 and 14, respectively, they started their own IRAs.
Today, Mark, 52, and Debbie, 51, own a home on five acres in Bainbridge. They aim to save at least 10 percent of their annual household income for retirement investments, including several stocks, mutual funds and money-market accounts.
Mark makes monthly updates to two Microsoft Excel files — one tracks the couple's assets, liabilities and net worth; the other projects income and expenses. He adjusted the latter this autumn, after selling his stake in a personal-development firm where he was a partner, Bright Side Inc. in Chagrin Falls, to look for a job at a larger company.
"We all should have a baseline of where we are financially, no matter how good or bad the picture is," Mark says.
When the Hawalds retire, they will have a nest egg worth well into the six figures. According to the American Association of Retired Persons, only one in five baby boomers has more than $25,000 in assets.
"Today, most people are funding their own retirement, and it's up to us to be proactive and self-sufficient," Mark says.
His sons must have paid attention: Joe purchased a home outright after his freshman year at Kettering University, and Mark did the same in 2005 while enrolled in graduate school at John Carroll.
The Tallericos:
Utilize Dollar-Cost Averaging
Russell Township will never be mistaken for Silicon Valley, but that didn't stop Dennis Tallerico from trading high-tech stocks in the late 1990s. "At the time, it seemed easy and exciting," says Tallerico, 58.
When he bought stock in Cisco Systems and watched its share price plummet, he realized the buzz over dot-coms was just like his hometown's more common name: Novelty. "A lot of people thought they could time the market," he says. "A lot of people were wrong."
When the high-tech bubble burst and the U.S. economy began to reel, Dennis and his wife, Jacque, agreed they needed do something different.
They had a traditional IRA with Fidelity Investments, cash-value life insurance with Northwestern Mutual and other "scattered assets," Dennis says. "We lacked an overall retirement strategy, let alone specific insight on investing."
Some of their money was earning a return, and some wasn't. "That's about all we knew," he adds.
In 2004, Dennis, who operates a small records and data protection services firm, attended an event held by COSE, the small business division of the Greater Cleveland Partnership. He met Rosalie Scafidi, a certified public accountant and financial planner at Ameriprise Financial Services in Cleveland.
When Dennis and Jacque, 53, who works part time as an administrative employee for a construction company, met with Scafidi, the couple outlined short-term goals such as "taking the sting out of the rising cost of college" for their sons Brian, a freshman baseball player on a 60 percent scholarship at Fordham University, and Scott, a high-school student.
Their long-term goals included retiring with the financial freedom to travel more frequently.
Scafidi analyzed the Tallericos' risk tolerance, determining the couple valued peace of mind and consistent growth over high-risk stocks.
The investment strategy best suited to meet the family's goals, Scafidi suggested, was "dollar-cost averaging," a technique designed to reduce market risk through the systematic purchase of securities at predetermined intervals and set amounts.
For example, instead of investing $15,000 in a mutual fund in one lump sum, Dennis and Jacque buy smaller amounts over a longer period of time — $1,250 quarterly for three years. The technique provides insulation against changes in market price. They purchase more shares when prices are low and fewer shares when prices are high.
"The best part is we don't have to do any predicting," Dennis says. "We just select the investments we want to hold for the long term [five years or longer], and invest at regular intervals."
Scafidi addressed the Tallericos' main short-term objective — curbing the high price of college — by moving some of the couple's assets into variable annuities, which basically are mutual funds with an insurance policy wrapped around them.
The "insurance wrapper," as it's called, allows the money in the fund to grow tax-deferred. Because the move reduces the couple's liquid assets, the couple will be eligible for lower-cost student loans, Dennis says. He also will have the flexibility to take money out of the annuity next June, when he reaches 59.5 years old. (Early withdrawals incur stiff penalties.)
"The strategy is perfect for us right now, but probably wouldn't work as well for younger couples because their money wouldn't be accessible for a while," Dennis says.
The Tallericos say they're looking forward to the next decade, when they'll retire, downsize their house, travel and spend more time with their kids. "For us, the right path isn't timing the market," Dennis says. "It's being more boring and consistent."
The Bachour-Chahdas:
Take Control Over Your Business and Finances
Helun Bachour-Chahda, 57, left economically depressed Argentina at 25 and came to America with a dream: Start a small business to help support her large family.
"I wanted a better future, but when I came here, I started from zero," she says. "The beginning was rough, because I didn't know the culture or language."
In Argentina, she earned a college degree in accounting and finance. In Ohio, she learned about persistence. Along with her mother, brother and sister, Helun "worked here and there for a few years," scraping together enough money to make payments on a $32,000 house. "We all contributed to expenses, and just did the best we could to get by and save a little money."
In 1987, she launched GrayTech International on West 150th Street, which makes small- to medium-sized component parts for machines, including medical equipment. Today, Helun estimates the company is worth about $5 million.
"Every life has a purpose, and mine was to establish a business that not only provided for myself, but also for my family and the employees who work here," says Helun, who's single and lives in Rocky River.
GrayTech's 22 employees include her brother, Mario, and her sisters, Marta and Anisse. "The plan is to keep growing the business, and one day sell it to the younger generation," she says.
Helun has 19 nieces and nephews, most of whom live in Northeast Ohio. "One of my values is education, and I'm trying to help put some of the kids through school," she says, adding that one teaches private school in Switzerland and another is a master chef. "We're all very united."
Before working toward a goal, Helun considers its underlying value. Two of her values are peace of mind and freedom, so recently she looked for ways to achieve a higher return on "a significant amount of money" she held in a preferred-rate money-market fund at The Huntington Bank's Rocky River location, while also gaining more control over her taxes. After consulting with the branch's leaders, she moved the funds to a tax-deferred annuity.
Annuities play an important role in retirement planning, enabling investors to save money while eliminating the fear that they'll outlive their savings. Helun can invest as much as she wants to her annuity at any time, an advantage over investing in IRAs and 401(k) plans, which have maximum annual contributions. Her annuity is invested in a mix of mutual funds, stock funds and fixed-income funds.
Tax-deferred annuities have two phases — accumulation and payout. Helun's money will grow tax-deferred for five years, when she can either withdraw it as a lump sum or a series of payments. The payout phase begins when she takes income from the annuity, which is growing at about 8 percent annually — about twice as fast as the money-market fund, Helun says. She'll pay income taxes based on distributions, but only the portion attributable to earnings.
"I have overcome many challenges to make my business and finances profitable, and I'm not sure when I'm going to stop working," Helun says. "I plan to pass on the investment to the family, so they'll have something to lay back on in case they need it. To me, though, life isn't about having as much money as possible. It's about having a rich, purposeful life."

TC TO ALEXANDER CARLYLE; 12 December 1827; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18271212-TC-AC-01; CL 4:294.
Comley Bank, 12th December 1827.
… With a happy surprise, our Mother and Jane popped in here upon us last Wednesday night!1 They stood their journey well, and are doing well; only that the boisterous weather is against seeing sights, and my feebleness prevents me somewhat from officiating as Guide. Nevertheless to-day I had them in the Castle, etc.; and by degrees, I suppose we shall get the whole city mastered. They tell us that all is well at Scotsbrig, only our Father still a little weak. …
All good wishes to you and your little Missus from all and sundry here assembled! The whole three are sitting sewing in the most peaceful manner at my hand: our Mother has been reading the Man of Feeling2 and my last Paper (with great estimation) in the Edinburgh Review. God bless you and poor wee Mary.— I am ever your affectionate Brother,
Thomas Carlyle.

NFL.com's Elliot Harrison recently released his top 20 NFL players of the 2000s, and certainly New Orleans Saints fans won't be surprised that Drew Brees made the list.
Brees takes the No. 10 spot. The only other quarterbacks ranked before Brees are Peyton Manning (No. 2) and Tom Brady (No. 1).
Entering his ninth year as the face of the Saints franchise, Brees has showed no signs of slowing down.
Here's what NFL.com said about Brees:
Brees only rates as low as 10th because of his slow start with the Chargers. However, he was outstanding his final two years in San Diego before lifting New Orleans from the depths of despair with an NFC Championship appearance in 2006 and a Super Bowl win in 2009. Brees also posted the second 5,000-yard passing season in NFL history toward the end of the decade.
New Orleans Saints cornerback Champ Bailey ranks ahead of Brees at No. 8.

ROME — It is going to be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to ever top the events of this week in Rome and the time that I spent in Assisi and Siena.
From start to finish, the ad limina pilgrimage has been a privilege and the most intense personal experience and professional assignment I have ever accepted.
Most days were 20 hours long, spent walking close to 10 miles a day and also riding in multiple forms of transportation in a country that has an "organized chaos" approach to traffic, especially in Rome.
To say that it has been a whirlwind is an understatement.
But amidst the intensity of the travel, the sightseeing, the interviewing, the blogging, the photography, the sleep deprivation and the attempt to overcome the language barrier, there has been great joy and a sense of purpose in being able to share with the rest of the world what it is like to go to "the threshold of the Apostles."
My joy has been twofold, as not only did I enjoy the company of my fellow pilgrims on the journey, but I also had the amazing opportunity to accompany the 15 bishops of Region XIV to the Apostolic Palace for their meeting with the Holy Father and attend Mass with them each day, photographing them as they came together to celebrate the Eucharist at the Tomb of St. Peter and in the most sacred of churches in Rome.
I am in awe at the priceless gift that has been given me by Divine Providence.
To travel the Italian countryside, walk the streets of cities I have pined to see for decades, and take in the culture of the "country of saints" in the company of my brothers and sisters in Christ has enriched my faith and made it come alive.
To spend time in prayer at the tombs of my beloved Sts. Francis and Clare gave me great peace of heart.
To see Rome for the first time, to run up the Via della Conciliazione in the rain, just in time to see the Holy Father pray the Regina Coeli and greet pilgrims from his window was so surreal.
To step into St. Peter's Basilica early in the morning to witness the priests heading to the altars around the church, then hearing the sweet sound of bells tinkling softly during the consecration and small groups of people singing during the Masses and receiving the Eucharist was truly heaven on earth.
To witness our bishops process through the most beautiful churches in all of Christendom, to listen to their homilies, observe them in prayer, and watch them grow in holiness was a great grace.
To pray at the tombs of the Apostles -- St. Peter, St. Paul, St. John and the popes, especially Blessed John Paul II -- was a very moving experience for me.
To contemplate images of Our Lady -- in roadside shrines, in public squares and depicted in artwork and statuary all over the churches we visited in Italy -- was like being in her embrace everywhere we went.
And lastly, like a gorgeous jewel in the crown of grace, to experience the joy of seeing our beloved "Papa" face to face, to actually look him in the eyes, was a moment that rendered me speechless, like a child happily gazing into the face of her father whom she deeply loves.
This ad limina pilgrimage has truly been a once in a lifetime journey, a most blessed gift, which I will remember for the rest of my life.

n 2003, during the first housing boom of the new millennium, Stacy Mehrfar set out to photograph the spate of new suburban developments throughout the continental United States. Initially attracted to the overwhelming capacity with which these tracts were steadily encroaching upon the wilderness, Mehrfar soon began turning her camera on the older communities that were often left to neglect in the wake of their newer counterparts.
Photographed in twenty-eight states over a five-year period, the result is the two-part project entitled American Palimpsests | This Was What There Was. The junction of the two—the early twenty-first century suburbs of American Palimpsests, and the remnants of a colorful past amid a national transformation in This Was What There Was—represents a geographical liminal state between old and new, unique and undifferentiated, natural and artificial.
Many of the new communities Mehrfar photographed emptied amid the first bust of the new millennium, leaving behind incomplete developments and heavily altered landscapes. American Palimpsests | This Was What There Was is a photographic reckoning of several cycles of growth and contraction that reflect the American way of life today.

Canada is regressing. In 2001, Canada became the first country to institute a federally-run medical marijuana program, allowing patients to grow their own medicine. The government also operates a grow facility in Manitoba to supply patients unable to grow their own. Sadly, under the conservative Harper administration, Health Canada has announced that as of April 1st, 2014, the Manitoba growroom will be shut down, and all cannabis cultivation by patients will be banned. Only licensed growers in the private sector will be allowed to continue operating.
The ban will leave more than 30,000 legally authorized medical pot patients scrambling to find licensed growers in their area. And the growers that are permitted to continue supplying much-needed marijuana will be subject to increased scrutiny by the government, with tightened security measures, greater accountability, and more inspections. The new regulations heavily favor law enforcement, reflecting the right-wing leanings of the Harper administration. Staff Inspector Randy Franks of the Toronto Drug Squad accused patients who grow their own of selling their extra medicine to the black market, saying, "There's far too much potential and actual abuse within the current scheme… These home-grown operations are able to produce far more than they need to and they have to do something with it, so they sell it mainstream."
We had no idea that legal pot patients are actually opportunistic schemers. What a travesty to deprive people in need of their federally authorized medicine! Here's hoping Canada votes Harper and his policies out of office in the next election.

Listen to Monday's Cougar Calls with Bill Moos
After a few weeks off for the holidays, Cougar Calls with Bill Moos, a weekly radio call-in show featuring Washington State University Director of Athletics Bill Moos, returned.
Moos discussed many topics including the upcoming release of the 2014 football schedule and basketball games this week for the men's and women's basketball teams.
KXLY's Derek Deis filled in for host Bud Nameck, who was returning with the men's basketball team from its recent Arizona trip.
In addition, football coach Mike Leach was a special guest. Leach called-in from his home in Key West, Fla. and discussed the 2013 season while looking ahead to 2014.
"It was the best season Washington State had in 10 years, but as a group we gotten to the point where we're dissatisfied with it because we truly believe we can do more and should have done more," Leach said during the show.
The women's basketball team hosts intra-state rival Washington, Tuesday at 7 p.m. in Beasley Coliseum and travels to Washington for a game Saturday at 3 p.m.
Men's hoops hosts Colorado in Spokane, Wednesday at 6 p.m. and returns to Pullman to face Utah, Sunday at 4 p.m.
Those who missed the show, which airs every Monday at 10 a.m. on Spokane's KXLY 920 AM and WSUCougars.com can listen to the show HERE and on iTunes.
The show originates from The Swinging Doors in Spokane.
Go Cougs!

Let $(X \times R,m\times m', \mu \times \lambda)$ be a measure space. If $E$ is any measurable set in $X \times R$ and if $\alpha,\beta \in R$ s.t $\alpha>0$, then $\{(x,y)~:~ (x,\alpha y+\beta)\in E\}$ is a measurable subset of $X\times R$.
Let $m$ be the Lebesgue measure on $[0,1]$ and let $\lambda$ be the counting measure on $\mathbb{N}$. Find all $(m\times\lambda)$-measurable sets.
Define $\mu(E)=\int_E ie^{ix} \, dm(x)$ for all Borel sets $E\subset [0,2\pi]$, where $m$ is the Lebesgue measure. Find all $\mu$-measurable sets.

Unfortunately in measure theory, we use the word "measurable" to describe a variety of different concepts. For sets, there are three most commonly used situations where we call a set measurable.
For clarity and because it is most general, I always stick to (1.) and specify the $\sigma$-algebra if there is any chance of confusion.
Try seeing if any of these matches up with the definition in the book where you got those problems from.

THE director of regeneration at Hastings Borough Council, has been named as a 'local authority hero' by Locality, the leading nationwide network for community-led organisations.
Simon Hubbard was nominated by community organisations and Locality members in Hastings as a member of council staff who has gone above and beyond the call of duty to support community organisations in their local area.
Receiving his Local Authority Hero award at a ceremony in central London on June 30, he was nominated by Locality member White Rock Trust for his part in saving Hastings Pier, and for the trust and strong relationships he has built up with the local community sector.
Jess Steele of the White Rock Trust, a community organisation working to improve the White Rock area, said: "Simon was enormously helpful in the battle to save Hastings Pier. Once we persuaded him (and eventually the whole council) of the potential, they became an 'active partner'. Simon steered us through rocky waters to achieve the Compulsory Purchase Order and convinced both local authorities to strengthen our Heritage Lottery Fund application by underwriting the funding gap."

A True ACCOUNT of the BEHAVIOUR, CONFESSION, AND Last Dying SPEECHES, Of the Criminals that were Executed at TYBURN, On Wednesday the 28th of February, 1694.
ON Fryday, the 23d of February, 1694. at the Old Baily, Eighteen Criminals, received the Sentence of Death, Sixteen Men, and a Woman, with a young Girl; both for Clipping the Current Coin of this Nation. Whereof Seven Men were in the Dead Warrant, to be executed at Tyburn, on Wednesday the last of this Month.
The Ordinary visited the Condemned every day, till their Execution. On the Lords day he read Prayers, and preacht twice on this Text, viz. the 24th verse of the 15th chapter of Solomons Proverbs, The way of Life is above to the wise, that he may depart from Hell beneath. For the explication of which words he shewed several particulars.
First, Who are counted the Godly wise, and wherein divine wisdome exercises itself.
Secondly, That the truly wise decline such sins, which directly and naturally tend to Hell beneath, or the Grave, by an untimely ignominious death of the Body. Here was shewed, what such sins are, and how godly wisdome is a preservation, or effectual Remedy against them.
Thirdly, What are the several ways of desperate confirmed wickedness, which lead to Hell in eternal Torments.
Fourthly, Wherein Godly wisdom promotes the Spiritual life of the Soul, which is infused from above, and tends to the inheriting Celestial Glory.
The First Head.
Who are counted the truly wise, and wherein do they manifest themselves to be such.
1. Those who imbrace the Lord Jesus Christ by Faith, who practice universal, constant, sincere and chearful obedience to his Sacred Laws. Such only are wise to eternal Salvation: All other knowledge of the deepest Secrets in Nature vanish most-what into Pride, Ostentation, and endless Strife. The two great ends of saving knowledge, are to communicate it to others, and to obey the light, which we possess within our selves.
2. Such know how to manage every state and condition of this present life, so as to abound without pride, and to want without complaint.
3. They strive to secure the great Interests of the other world, by valuing persons and things; not according to fleshly appearances, but as they will hold out, in the Estimation and Advantage, when the Frame of Heaven and Earth shall be dissolv'd.
4. They foresee an impending Storm of Divine Judgment, so as to hide themselves in Time, under the Wing of Gods Protection. They chuse proper, suitable and effectual means, to attain a blessed Immortality.
5. They set a Watch over their Hearts, as studying to approve themselves rather to God, than their Conversation to Men. Thus they arrive to the reward of Eternal Life in Celestial Glory.
But the present and future state of the Ungodly, is far different. The highest Advantage which they shall reap from such a vile thing as Sin, shall determine and center, in grasping nothing but Shame, Reproach, and Eternal Death. Sinful Folly is worse than Natural in Idiots. These may for the defect in their understanding expect some mittigation of their crime and punishment: But to fell a mans felt to Satan and his Lust, is to sink himself into a state worse than Brutal. Thus an hardned customariness in sinning, naturally tends to Hell, as the center of a consummated state in wickedness. Yea, were such admitted into Heaven, yet they would count this place of Blessedness an Hell of restless torments, because of a total unsuitableness to Gods holy nature, who cannot indure to behold the least spot of Iniquity. Therefore, sinners not purified by the merit of Christs bloodshed, and the renewing virtue of his Spirit, shall never be admitted into the regions of celestial light, in a glorious enjoyment of God to all Eternity.
The Conclusion was thus directed to the Condemned.
How devoid of common understanding are such, whose steps take hold of Hell, by a wilful course in sinning, as if they could not sufficiently insure, the intailment of Damnation upon themselves. Let me argue the Case with such spiritual Phrenticks. Why do ye conceit your selves wise in despising the sacred Oracles of the most high? Are not these the infallible Rule of Humane Conversation? Are they not that Standard of Righteousness, which shall convince all impenitent Sinners, how justly their Souls shall be condemned to Eternal Torments? Is not this the heighth of Folly and Madness, to despise that Divine Wisdom, which, as the Tree of Life, offers to stretch out her self for Eternal Safety, to such who shall take hold of her, to sit down under the Shadow of her Protection? Were men truly wise they would not dare to scoff at the Venerable Mysteries of Religion, nor the Commendable Pursuit of a Virtuous Life and Conversation. Yet strange it is, that Sinners will not be convinced of their Self cruelty, in ruining their precious Souls for Trifles, and the momentary Sceens of destructive Pleasures in the Paths of Vanity and Prophaneness. Consider that the way of Life, the Safety and comfortable Injoyment of it, is only, in lifting up the Soul to God, by a delightful Coutemplation of his infinite Perfections, and in a divine Conformity thereunto. This will secure us against those Trains of Temptation, which are laid by Satan and the Lusts of our own heart, to betray us to Hell in the Regions of Eternal Darkness. Therefore trust not your own hearts, which are deceitful above the subtilty of the old Serpent. Take heed of dreaming that you are the Heirs of Heavenly Felicity, and yet may remain Satans Bondslaves: Oh how sad is this to drown in the sight of a Rainbow; to perish in the Deluge of Gods Wrath, by admiring the specious deceitful vanishing Shadows of a defective Righteousness. Implore the Lord therefore, to send forth the light of his sanctifying Truth, to beget and preserve spiritual Wisdom in your Hearts: So shall you be exalted to safety, in being set above the slavish Fear of Death. Permit Divine Wisdom to guide your Feet into Paths of Piety in this World, and it will not fail to admit you into the Felicities of Celestial Blessedness to Eternity.
After the Lords day I visited the Condemned, and inquired what Impressions the Prayers and Sermons made upon their Hearts. They generally reply'd, that they were made sensible of their evil Lives, and hoped that they repented. Hereupon, I advised them not to mistake a slight sorrow for Sin, as if this could make satisfaction to God for the Excesses of a vicious Life. And because I have observed many dolorous complaints of Criminals against themselves to vanish away, upon slender Hopes of a Reprieve, I exhorted them to beg of God, that he would carry on their Convictions to a thorow Conversion. At another time I stated the Nature and Effects of true saving Faith and Repentance, from that which is false.
Afterward I required an account from them, in what preparation they were for Death and a Blessed Eternity.
I proceed to give you an Account of the Behaviour and Confessions of the Condemned Criminals.
I. William Gillet, Condemned for stealing Hats; born in St. Georges Parish, in Southwark. He served under Glass-makers , but had been addicted to a vicious Life: For he plaid on the Sabbath in the Streets; and was guilty of Swearing and Lying, was very ignorant in matters of Religion, and little sensible of his Sins.
II. William Breed, alias Buckingham, Condemned for Felony, aged 15 or 16 Years. He was born in St. Giles in the Fields: He cried Mats about the Streets ; afterwards joined with bad Company. He said, that he sadly brake the Sabbaths, and
that he gamed on that day. That he had been drunk, and often swore: That he was very disobedient to his Parents, especially to his Mother, which was occasioned by her Tenderness over him.
III. William Evans, Condemned for stealing a Horse, aged about 19 years, born at Meldrid in Cambridgshire. His Father employed him in Husbandry ; but he grew idle, and leaving his Father, he brake the Sabbath, and was given to Drunkenness and Sweating.

He said, that he served King William in Ireland and Flanders, but left that Employment, because he was disabled by some wounds. He had been guilty of Swearing and Drinking excessively. But now he said, that Sin was his Burden, and that he grieves chiefly for offending Cod.
V. John Salter, Condemned for Felony, about a Robbery in Surry, aged 22 years; born in Buckinghamshire. He was brought up to Husbandry , but left that employment, and joyned himself to bad company. He prophaned the Sabbath, and was addicted to Swearing and Drunkenness. He said that he was a great sinner: but he hopes that by Gods mercy and Christs merits, his heart will be contrite for offending God, and giving evil example unto others.
VI. Richard Lorreiner, Condemned for picking a Pocket, aged 16 years and a half, born in White-Chappel Parish. His employment was in driving Carts ; He went not to Church on the Lords day, but played at Marbles; He sometimes swore prophanely; But said, that now he mourns for his sad distress; That he reads night and day; That he prays, Gods Spirit would change his heart, that he may be fit to dye. If he may be spared, he hopes that he should not joyn again with bad Company.
VII. Henry Hooper, Condemned for stealing a Horse, aged 32 years; born in Norfolk. He was a Horse-Courser , and said that till of late, he drove a Hackney Coach : He was ignorant in matters of Religion, and confest only in general, that he had sinned, and led an evil Life, but did not express in what particulars.
VIII. John Edwards, Condemned for Felony, aged 25 years, born in Aldgate Parish. He was a Plaisterer . He denied not that he joined with others in stealing broad Cloth, and that he had 25 s. of the Mony, for which it was sold. He wept. I askt him why? he said for his sins; and that now he hoped, he hated sin, more than he loved it; that his heart is set against all sin; saying, that if he might have his life spared, he would go again to his Trade of Plaistering, and never more commit any unlawful Act.
IX. Thomas Kerton, Condemned for Felony, aged 20 years, born in Shorediech Parish. He bought old Clothes, and some times Ends of Gold and Silver . He confest, that he would not be ruled by his Parents, and so fell into bad Company; He Played on the Sabbath day in the fields; He was sometimes drunk; He said that he did not fear God, but now he grieves for his sins, and prays that his heart may be changed, and that he may no longer be left to himself.
X. John Riggs, Condemned with Robert Lewis, and Jasper Marry, for Felony, and Burglaty, aged 24 years, born in Bishops-gate Parish. He was a Weaver , but left that Employment, being drawn from it by bad Company. He said that he much broke the Sabbath, which brought him to this sad condition. He was disobedient to his Parents, and guilty of many other sins; That God had brought him to publick shame, and he desired to repent of all his Sins.
XI. Robert Lewis, Condemned for the same Felony and Burglary, aged 26 years, born in Barkshier. A Butcher by Trade in St. James's-Market. He left not his employmen above a month: That he was much in debt. He said that four or five joyned in the Robbery, but did not name them. He denied that he brake into the House, yet confest that he did share with others in the stolen Goods. He said, that he did sometimes drink excessively, and swear prophanely, but he desires to repent, that he hath set such a bad example to others, and prays that his heart may be more softed.
XII. Jasper Marry, Condemned for the same Felony and Burglary, refused to come at any time to the publick Prayers and Exhortations. Therefore I called to him in the stone Dungeon, and offer'd to pray with him, but he utterly dejected the motion, saying that he was a Romanist, and would not hearken to any advice which I would have given him, to convince him of his false Religion.
XIII, XIV, XV. The like refusal was made by Simon Betts, Richard Betts, and Thomas Michel, who said that they were of another Religion; I offered to pray with them several times, but they persisted in their impenitent behaviour: These three were condemned for Felony and Burglary.
XVI. Margery Townley, Condemned for Clipping the current Coin of this Nation, but reprieved as being quick with Child; Aged 29 years, born in Barkshire: For twelve years last past, she sold Fruit in the Market . It is a quarter of a year since she left that Employment, being (as she said) tempted to clipping of Mony, but would not name by whom. She confest that she was guilty of Swearing, and often broke the Sabbath.
XVII. Frances Wroth, Condemned for Clipping the Coin of this Kingdom, aged about 12 or 13 years, she was born in Westminster. She served a Gentlewoman some time, but being tempted by bad Persons, particularly, by one Hurst, she committed the Crime, saying, that Sabbath breaking, Lying, and other Sins, had brought her to this. She seemed penitent.
Lastly, Thomas Granger, Condemned for breaking a House in the day time: He denied not the crime. He said, that it much troubled him that he did not take former Warning; That he had offended God in a great measure, so that he fears his Prayers will not be heard; That he had sinned against Convictions in his Conscience, yea against Vows and Resolutions to break off many evil Courses; That he doth earnestly beg of God, to work in him nnfeigned repentance; That he desires all persons whom he hath wronged, to pardon him, because he is willing to make restitution, but cannot, having nothing left wherewith to do it. He wept much, and I hope was penitent.
On Wednesday, the last of February, 1694, Seven men were carried from Newgate to Tyburn, to be Executed, viz. Jasper Marry a Sweed, Simon Betts, and Richard Betts. These three declared themselves to be Roman Catholicks. Marry prayed out of a Popish book, and often kissed it. Richard Betts prayed affectionately for himself; Simon Betts, his Brother, did the like: They desired, that every Person whom they had injured, would forgive them.
The other four Persons, were these who follow in the account, viz. John Riggs, he being tied up, prayed thus for himself. O thou Eternal God, the Judge of all Men, thou knowest that I have been a very great Sinner; yet for thy Mercy sake, give me one Glimpse of thy Conntenance to support and comfort me: Oh do not reject me, tho I have aggravad my Sins against the Convictions of my Conscience. Do not only pardon me, but sanctify my heart, and fit me for thy Heavenly Kingdom. He warned the Spectators not to brake the Sabbath, which he often did, and this led him to the Commission of gross Sins. He said, Take heed how you keep Company with lewd Women, and become unclean with them. This Sin now much wounds my Conscience. It puts upon stealing to satisfy their Lustt. He said, that since two Sessions last past, he being at Liberty, would not take warning, but had committed many Robberies, yet not Murder at any time. I askt him and the other Criminals, whither any of them knew of any concealed Murder. They replied No, neither had been guilty of any. He wept very much, acknowledged Gods Justice, and died penitently.
Thomas Granger, He prayed for himself, and wept; was very composed in dying, resigning himself submissively to Gods mercy, in Christ.
John Salter, prayed and showed some signs of sorrow.
Robert Lewis said the Lords Prayer, but did not give such evidence of Penitency, as the other persons.
After the Ordinary had exhorted and prayed for them all, he committed them to Gods mercy. After they had again prayed for themselves, the Cart drew away, and they were executed.
This is all the Account I can give of this Sessions, Licensed, March, 1st. Sam. Smith, Ordinary.

You get what you pay for with pipes. That said, these DG's are tough to beat! Plenty of performance to keep me happy, & they look great on my '74 Yamaha RD350A. They are fairly loud, and on long trips the drone will deafen you if you've got a cheap helmet. There's no happy RPM sound-wise. I still think they sound great! While droning along at 3k rpm, even seasoned main-road-dwelling folks will turn to see what the heck is coming! My RD has a few modifications in addition to these pipes (stage I port, shaved heads, Pro-X Banshee pistons, lightened & balanced crank with 34X rods, YZ125 reeds [one petal snipped] with reed block spacers, Dave F.mod carbs, crossover tube, K&N Y-boot intake) so YMMV: I have AWESOME low end power considering this is a 2-stroke. Will run and pull down to 2200 rpm at lower speeds, and from 2,800 in top gear. A bit of a flat spot from 5-6k, then at 7k she screams well into redline at 9k. Plenty happy with these! Some of the things you'll get with cheap pipes: 1. A cheap-looking rattlecan-like factory paint job 2. Hangers that might need to be modified (mine did) ... even though they're model specific. 3. Head pipes that leak 2-stroke spooge by the gallon all over your pretty new paint job. 4. Silencers that are not easily serviceable without modification Still, even with all this, I'd buy another set without question. Under $300 to your DOORSTEP can't be beat!!

Great value compared to RD exhaust on the market!
Pipes fit well and hold up well,the performance is a great improvement over stock. Should use open air filters and jetting for best results.

DG RD400 Exhaust
Top notch service as always from Dennis Kirk. Next day delivery in Minnesota, wow...Packing was tight and secure on the pkg.. The only complaint I have is from DG and NOT from Dennis Kirk. The pipes should come with exhaust gaskets, the gaskets are very hard to find for the pipes. All in all great pipes tho, and most of all great service from the Rush City workers. Thanx

DG RD chambers
These are hard to beat for the price, and I think they look more natural on the RD. Some of the pricier, quieter, pipes hang very far off the back of the bike. I think I prefer the tucked in appearance of the DG's. A bit loud, but I ran these pipes in the late 80's. They are very nostalgic.

Success Story: Judy – Complicated Case Starts with Diet
We recently had a patient, Judy, come see us who has quite the case. She had already been diagnosed with two separate autoimmune disorders ã both of which affected her bones and her skin in many different areas of her body. Some of her symptoms included joint pain, bone pain, fatigue, stiffness, rashes on the bottoms of her feet, signs of hormone imbalance such as hot flashes and irregular menstrual cycles,ô dark circles under her eyes, sweets cravings,ô low libido, and gastrointestinal problems. Some of the treatments she had received included an IV drip that contained a drug used to treat osteoporosis and bone cancers and two separate medications used to treatô Rheumatoid Arthritis. As her symptoms became worse, despite the use of these drugs, she started to look elsewhere for help.
She came to Caring Medical to see what Dr. Hauser recommended. As with all of the natural medicine patients, Dr. Hauser decided to start with diet. He had Judy Diet Typed and food allergies tested. He also recommended a number of other tests, which Judy decided to wait on. Dr. Hauser told Judy that eventually she would need to have all of these other tests performed, but for now diet was a great first step to take.
Judy's diet typing results showed that she was a slow oxidizer with balancedô blood pH ã a Monkey. When the nutritionist was reviewing the diet with her, Judy stated that she already ate like a Monkey. While it appeared that the Monkey diet was the most comparable diet with Judy's current diet, she wasn't necessarily following all of the Monkey concepts. She was definitely eating a low protein diet, but it was also low in vegetables ã the base of the Monkey Diet. Judy also drank close to 30oz ofô diet soda per day with very little water. A low vegetable diet with a large quantity of diet soda each day is not a sufficient diet to support her body ã especially with all of the symptoms she was having. So those were the first two steps to take ã increase vegetables and discontinue all diet soda ã Judy would need water and herbal tea as replacements.
So Judy is off, and in her case diet may not be enough to heal her completely, but it is the best place to start. In two weeks her food allergy results will be back and we can tweak her diet even more. And as Judy gets all of her labs completed, Dr. Hauser can start putting together the pieces of the underlying cause of her condition.
Follow Up
Judy started one month ago with theô Monkey Diet. Although she was already eating somewhat similar to the Monkey Diet prior to her visit, we were able to come up with 2 main changes to make:ô discontinue her 30 ounces of Diet Pepsi each day and increase her vegetable intake.ô Sounds simple, but it made a difference! She had also started some supplements and natural hormone replacement.
We were waiting on herô food allergy results to come back and we knew that the allergies would make a big difference in how she was feeling. But just one month of hormones, supplements, increased fresh vegetables and no Diet Pepsi left Judy with increased energy, better sleep, and more focus. Wow! Although she had a ways to go, we were very proud of the changes she had made. She was excited to see the differences and was able to get back to some old ways of life, she was very optimistic for the food allergies and other lab tests.
The next step was to avoid herô food allergies. Since she had quite a few allergies, it would be a challenge for her. But Judy was up for it and willing to do anything to get back to feeling good again. She had a few other lab tests done and would be meeting with Dr. Hauser at a later date to review those. With correct diet, supplements, and natural hormone replacement Judy could see some great changes in her body.
We always like to say that there are different pieces to the each puzzle of a person's health. As we find some more pieces of Judy's puzzle to put together, we will keep you updated. Healing your body naturally is an amazing thing to witness, if you are curious about what natural medicine can do for you, giveô Caring Medical a call!

Thirty-six cups fit in the Bell Shaped Drink Dispenser & Stand ($84); we don't know how many margaritas that equates, but we're guessing it'll be enough for a small get-together. Made of earthenware with a glazed finish, and sitting on an antiqued bronze stand - it's just what we need to get the party started!
I want this and I want to put this: http://bit.ly/i4bXjS in it.

The New Zealand dollar was little changed as investors mulled the significance of a weaker-than-expected US jobs report on Friday ahead of Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen's inaugural testimony in front of policymakers this week.
The kiwi traded at 82.75 US cents at 5pm in Wellington from 82.83 cents at 8am and 82.90 cents at the close of trading in New York on Friday. The trade-weighted index was 78.05 from 78.16 on Friday in New York.
Traders will be watching Yellen's testimony for any clues on the pace of the Fed's winding back of stimulus after US non-farm payrolls showed the world's biggest economy added 113,000 jobs last month, compared to the 185,000 expected. That followed a weak December month, which was affected by the harsh winter conditions, and analysts are still trying to interpret the data.
"The payrolls report was mixed enough to confuse a lot of people - there's a lot of debate about whether it was neutral or weak," said Imre Speizer, market strategist at Westpac Banking Corp in Auckland. "Given that the market doesn't know which way to go, the kiwi's gone sideways."
Westpac's Speizer said the currency may trade between 82 US cents and 84 cents this week, with the kiwi unlikely to shift out of its recent range until the Reserve Bank's next monetary policy statement in March, when the central bank is expected to start raising rates.
"Until then it could be quite dull for the kiwi," he said.
The local currency may trade between 80.40 US cents and 84.30 cents this week, according to a BusinessDesk survey of 11 traders and strategists. Seven predict the kiwi will rise this week, while three expect it to remain largely unchanged and one expects a drop.
New Zealand property values rose at a slower annual pace in January than in December, according to Quotable Value figures today. The state-owned valuer said restrictions on high loan-to-value ratio home lending and the prospect of looming rate hikes may have sapped some demand from the market.
The kiwi was little changed at 92.53 Australian cents at 5pm in Wellington from 92.48 cents on Friday in New York ahead of tomorrow's NAB business confidence survey, and Australian employment data later in the week.
The local currency slipped to 84.72 yen from 84.91 yen last week, and traded at 60.73 euro cents from 60.83 cents. It edged down to 50.43 British pence from 50.54 pence last week.
