- Title
- A study of variables related to the selection of long-term prisoners for parole
- Author(s)
- Banister, P. A.; Heskin, K. J.; Bolton, N.; Smith, F. V.
- Abstract
- In the course of an investigation into the effects of long-term imprisonment, 200 prisoners were tested on a wide variety of psychological tests, and information from files on their social and criminological background was noted. The same prisoners were retested after a mean interval of 19.08 months, and it was found that 36 had been released on parole. This paper compares the results of these 36 with those of 84 prisoners matched for age and type of sentence, who had been considered for parole but had not been released, in an attempt to see which criteria guide the parole board in their selection of men for parole. It was found that the paroled prisoners had significantly more stable marital relationships, were older at their first conviction, had fewer previous convictions, less serious previous convictions, fewer offences in prison during the twelve months prior to testing, more interesting jobs in prison, and tended to be in a preferable prison. On the psychological test, they scored higher that the detained prisoners on wais similarities subtest, emotional maturity spontaneity, and lower on worry-proneness. These results were interpreted as demonstrating that the paroled prisoners tended to be more mature and better adjusted than the detained prisoners. The results were discussed in relation to American parole findings, and it was concluded that the parole board in this country seems, with long-term prisoners, to be using those variables as criteria for release which American studies have shown to be most indicative of non-recidivism.

In just a short while, we US Americans will begin that hallowed tradition of spending quality time with family by gorging ourselves on a bounty of food, drinking excessive amounts of Johnnie Walker Black and falling asleep on the couch only to wake up with unidentifiable aches and pains in places never before felt.
Well, maybe that's just me.
In any case, given the copious amounts of bull**** recently posted by my colleague, Mr. Krause, whose intellectual ineptitude forces him to fall into that age-old Blue State trap of logorrhea where valid questions are only answered with an arsenal of equally unrelated questions, I have found solace in you, Dear Readers, and your ability to see that — as usual — I am right.
Thank you.
In fact, since this time of year is all about giving thanks, I am going to rightfully refrain from causing any further damage to Mr. Krause's ego by letting him be (just for today) and instead would like to take a moment to give my most wholehearted thanks.
Indeed, there are many things to be thankful for today. I'm thankful that the Cubs have gone 100 years without a World Series title. I am thankful that the Cardinals are actually considering filling some left-handed reliever roles (even if it is by courting a couple of scrubs). I am thankful that I live in the Second City — that we have two firery baseball icons who are willing to make fools of themselves by performing a ridiculous rap song for the good of Chevrolet; and I am thankful that senior citizens ride the CTA free, fat senior citizens ride two for the price of one, which is also free. I'm also thankful that Dubya is on his way out, that an Iowan turkey (ironically not Chuck Grassley this time) will be able to live a long, eaten-free life and that Minnesota has replaced Florida (for now) as the state where your vote might not really count.
But most of all, I am thankful for you, Dear Readers. For it is you that truly makes RSBS the special little happy place where baseball-politico egos, arguments and aspirations go to make sweet, sweet love. And for that, Mr. Krause and I couldn't be more grateful.
We have given our staff the rest of the week off. Allen has left for that cavernous pit of despair otherwise known as Los Angeles (or Where Souls Go to Die) while I will be spending the rest of the week reflecting on my podunk roots with my quaint family in Springfield, IL — once home to Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama and of course, Me.
Happy Thanksgiving to all and don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.
10 Comments
Jeff, we could never truly hate you. I mean you're only right half of the time! Kidding! And I find that you are truly in the Thanksgiving spirit – or is it that you've hit the Johnnie Walker a little early? – for the kindness that you are showing Mr. Krause. Your blog is always a pleasure to read. Even for a Red Sox Fan! Happy Turkey Day.
What a happy coincidence. I'll be spending my Thanksgiving day in LA too, so maybe I'll run into Mr. Krause and we can talk behind your back, Jeff! I do hope you both have a good holiday. I'll miss your posts while you're gone.
You are very welcome, RSBS. Your blog is always a joy to read, and I appreciate the comments you guys contribute to my own blog.
Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Here's to the Cubs losing for another 100 years (raising glass).
Keep up the good work and have a safe holiday.
Miss South Carolina just flat out confused herself. That was hilarious. Thank you for sharing.
No Jeffy, most of all, we thank you and Allen for your amazing articles that touch my life differently and more special each and every day….or something like that.
– thehappyyoungster, I will raise that glass with you in a toast to the continued demise of the Cubbies. I'll even have my mother bring out the meatloaf……*Ma!!! Meatloaf!!!*
It's a pleasure to read your blog, and I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving
Thanks all for you kind, gracious comments. Stay tuned as Blue State (Al) and I get back into the swing-state of things.
Hope you had a good Thanksgiving! Here's to a great offeason. And I still think Big Mac's 62 night was probably my greatest thrill as a fan, I think because I was there with my son and you couldn't believe it was happening.

Veggie-centric recipes and more!
By Jenn 63 Comments
nicole says
your mother sounds to be so sweet! just like mine! before posting a controversial blog entry, i will send her a text message reading, "mommy, please don't read the newest entry!" (i turn 30 in february).
and i do become quite crafty at christmastime! in fact, i'm in the process of "making" my own holiday cards! a blog entry on that project is forthcoming! your care package is lovely! x
Katie says
Oh my goodness, I love your snowflakes, your care package, AND your centerpiece! Win, win, and win today (in my opinion!). I definitely have big plans to get crafty this holiday season, very Pinterest-inspired. I've got lots of supplies purchased but have yet to get my craft on! As for my ideal care package, I pretty much just adore receiving anything "fun" (aka non-bill-related!) in the mail 😉
Jenn's Adventures says
what a sweet care package — I'm jealous! love the arts and craft in you, too! since I've become a professional nomad (ha!) it's been difficult to get back into the artsy mode — but I can't wait until I do!
the craftiest I get during the holidays is a bowl like that filled with different ornaments usually in gold or silver. That's it. I swear there's not an ounce of creativity in my body. Teach me!!
Jessica | Oh Cake says
This is such a sweet post! I love your snowflakes, your photos, and the lovely care package idea!
Lindsay @ The Lean Green Bean says
so pretty! love your color combo as always. and care packages are the best!!!! there's absolutely nothing better than getting a package of goodies in the mail 🙂
Katelyn Block says
i'M A FAN. Also of the song. Cutie patootie DIY tricks!
Chrissy says
Aw, they are so lovely! I want one of those punches! heh
Hugs xxx
Gothextramileblog says
sooo adorable! I love getting crafty. I may need to do something similar 😀
missblondiexoxo says
Awww! I love it! I totally may steal your centerpiece idea! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Cait @ BeyondBananas says
Ahh! SO cute, Jenn! I love the colors. They are beautiful together. I think I may have to wip out the scissors today and make some snow flakes with my students 🙂
Stephanie says
Aw, care packages are the best. My Mom told me that she sent me a package last week, and every day I'm practically hopping at the post office when I check my box. Ah, the letdown when it's empty. One of the joys of living in the middle of nowhere: it takes FOREVER for the mail to get here. Maybe today?
A snowflake punch would be a dangerous thing for me. I'd have to seriously talk myself out of giving my shirts snowflake cutout borders along the bottoms. (No, I'm serious. I come from a family of cutters. My sister used to snip pieces out of her clothes when she was a kid because she liked the sound. See? We're disturbed.)
Kiri W. says
Looks so pretty! Very cute 🙂
You're way more creative with your care packages than I am! I send a few a year of christmas cookies and such. It's nice because since it's chilly, I don't worry about the goods becoming a melty mess. 🙂
Lani says
I needs to be gettin' me a snowflake craft punch…STAT! So cute!
Julia Chadwick says
That is so so sweet of you! What a good daughter 🙂
chinkygirlmel says
cute cute cute cute!
Fran @BCDC says
You are Oh So Crafty! They are adorable and the color beautiful!! That's the color you painted something…the bathroom, bedroom? I forget! Beautiful, nonetheless!!
C Anthony says
What a cute idea! Aren't her products awesome?!!!
Lee says
You so are crafty. I love it. It's funny – I have a degree in Art and am a [unemployed] graphic designer by trader but I am not crafty at all!
Rachel says
That is a wonderful idea and so many thoughtful things went into it. I love it Jenn! Your mom will indeed be very lucky to get it and will, I am sure, appreciate it (after she stops cussing your name for all the freakin snowflakes).
sarah says
adorable centerpiece! we just busted out our christmas decorations last night & now i want to go snowflake-making crazy too!
Christiane says
That punch is adorable! If I was still scrapbooking, I'm sure I'd be running out to get one immediately. I love that you and your mom exchange care packages. What a fantastic tradition to keep going over the years.
lou says
hahah you crack me up…mom push the little x in the corner!! how funny! you are so creative!!
Your so creative! <3
Live Learn Eat says
The holidays make me feel so crafty! In my ideal care package, one would find: Ginger People Ginger Chews, Peanut Flour (never tried it, but want to!), NuNaturals, some kind of yummy & healthy granola, Ezekiel English Muffins, Nana's Double Chocolate Cookies, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Chocolate Greens 8000, and craisins. And if it were from a millionaire, I'd happily accept a VitaMix & a Magic Bullet under all of that. 😛
Liz @ Southern Charm says
SUCH a great and creative idea!!
I think my ideal care package would be treats, Christmas decorations, flour for baking and homemade cookies … it's Christmas, after all!
jenn@ahomeinthemaking says
SO CUTE! I love all your snow flakes …. they will be such an awesome surprise (or not?? 😉 when she opens the present!
Super cute snowflakes made with love by a super cute chick… doesn't get much better than that! 😀
That colour scheme is gorgeous – we used it last year for Christmas and might go again this year, it's just so pretty! And you're such a sweet daughter to send care packages! I confess I have never received a care package in my life – I think it's an American tradition that my Caymanian family never got into 🙁 – but maybe I'll just start sending them myself and hope people will reciprocate ;)!
ADORE that centerpiece. you're a genius. and way generous for sharing your LGF.
MeganRay says
ahhh! I want that hole punch! Way too cute!! And I bet your fam will love their care packages 🙂
ps – giving away a healing lotion prize pack on my blog – come enter to win!
Amanda Shaw Clark says
So sweet to send your mom a care package! I'm sure she will love it!
Cat Tan says
stealing.doing.going to michaels. i have a coupon. bonus. LOVE THIS!
Heather Blackmon says
That is the coolest hole punch I have ever seen. You can send me a care package anytime. Did I mention today's my birthday?! 😉
Courtney says
this is so darn cute!
Lisakthrives says
Cute snowflakes!
I love care packages—it has been quite some time since I got one, but I guess that goes along with living across the street from my mom! She did send me lots in college and when I lived in Boston–always with rice krispie treats….mmm.
I'm….not crafty.
Maria says
I would go NUTS over that hole punch! I think I'll take myself to a craft store this weekend 🙂 I think that's so great your mom has sent you care packages. I only get them when I deploy, which is greatly appreciated! My ideal care package consists of magazines, gluten-free goodies, and suduko puzzles.
Vien @ We Dare Food says
Wow! You're amazingly creative! 😀 Love all your artwork!
hmm.. I usually make Christmas cards! hehe always better than store boughts!
Stephanie @ Eat. Drink. Love. says
I love all of this! Especially all the purty snowflakes!! I'm going to be making some holiday yarn wreaths this weekend!
Amanda says
So pretty! Just did my tree today in silver and gold while watching Elf. Tis the season! (Actually I will watch Elf any day of the year..who can resist Will Ferrell in tights??)
Thanks for sharing friend!! Gives me some ideas for Christmas gifts! 🙂
That is so cute! You're so crafty!!!! Your momma is one lucky lady 😉
Abz 'n' Oats says
My goodness girl! Could you possibly be anymore cute and creative?! Love the snowflakes!
Andrea @ Vegvacious says
I am loving those snowflakes!! Right now I'm making my own ornaments with black & white family photos in them and I'm going to attempt a homemade garland and homemade wreath. I'm not known for my craftiness, but I'm going to try!!!
Alixandra West says
I WANT THAT SNOWFLAKE PUNCH! I'm obsessed with snowflakes (and snow) and am always trying to think of more ways to get more around the apartment 🙂
Katie says
How beautiful that centerpiece is! I love it! You are the most creative girl ever!!!
I wanted to run something by you, I want to start a WILW , what i love wednesday and wanted to make sure its ok with you first, and if you have any tips , meaning the link up thing, any advice is appreciated! Again, I will not do the WILW unless you are ok with it!
It sounds like you're UBER crafty girl! Can't wait to see it!!! =)
Elf is quite possibly one of my fav movies of alllll time =) Def going to watch it tonight!!!! <3
Ahhhh! Hope you had the BEST BDAY EVER Heather!!!!!! What did you end up doing? =) Spill it! <3
Heather Blackmon says
It was fun, but low-key. Don't you hate when your birthday is midweek? The "big" celebration dinner is scheduled for Friday when my hubby gets home! 🙂
ohmygosh yes! mine is always midweek too! Hope you have a wonderful bday week AND weekend in that case! <3
Blonde Ponytail says
SO CREATIVE DOLLFACE! When I'm on Pinterest, I think of you often as I know you can pull off so many DIY things!
Hayley @ Oat Couture says
Ooh I love!!! I want to make snowflakes all day long!! Something needs to make it start feeling like christmas around here! It actually feels more like Spring which is a tad confusing! :/
Sharon says
Those snowflakes are adorable! Your mum is in for such a treat 🙂
Love the centrepiece too!
Last year I made my own Christmas crackers and filled them with personalised gifts. I definitely want to do that again this year… just not on Christmas Eve at ten to midnight. I'm terrible for leaving things to the last minute. I'm hosting Christmas this year so I need to kick my butt into gear and get organised!
Sharon says
Oh this post is so sweet! Your mother will be so happy to receive the care package, and the she can come here to read the post, see the photos, and all the comments people have left here. Happy holidays!

'Les Miserables' Is Beautiful, Exciting, Romantic, And A Must See
I absolutely loved the Broadway production of 'Les Miserables' created by Claude-Michel Schonberg, Alain Boubill and Jean-Marc Natel. I listen to the show's score in my car whenever I need to feel energized.
So to say I was really, really looking forward to seeing the film is an understatement.
I couldn't help but wonder if I be disappointed? Would the film version match up to the stage production and would the singers sound as great as the original London and New York cast?
For those of you unfamiliar with the story, based on Victor Hugo's monumental 1862 novel about a decades-long manhunt, social inequality, injustice, love and redemption, here are the cliff notes...
Jean Valjean (Hugh Jackman) has served 19 years of hard labor on a chain gang for stealing a loaf of bread for his sister's child, who was dying from hunger. He originally got 5 years, but 14 years was added on to his unjust sentence for trying to escape.
Upon his release from prison, Valjean through a series of circumstances, jumps parole and becomes a very successful businessman as well as a mayor of a small town.
Former prison guard, and now a policeman, Javert (Russell Crowe) is obsessed with bringing Valjean to justice. The crazy dude devotes 17 years of his life, mercilessly hounding Valjean and tracking him from city to city.
Finally the two men meet, at the barricades in Paris, during the uprising of 1832.
But before all that happens, Valjean adopts Cosette, the daughter of Fantine (Anne Hathaway) ex-factory worker/prostitute who is dying. He promises Fantine on her deathbed that he will care for Cosette, as if she were his own.
As an aside, Anne Hathaway has gotten rave reviews for her performance. Personally, in my humble opinion, I think Miss H. sobs a way bit too much, especially when she sings one of the most beautiful songs in the show, 'I Dreamed A Dream'.
Anyway...Valjean must first rescue Cosette from an unscrupulous inn keeper and his wife played by the wonderful, Sascha Baron Cohen and Helena Bonham Carter. They are Le Miz's comic relief.
Cosette grows up to become Amanda Seyfried and she winds up falling in love with Marius (Eddie Redmayne) a wealthy young man turned revolutionary.
Too say anymore would spoil the fun and the film is fun. It's also exciting, touching, and absolutely spectacular, especially visually, thanks to Tom Hooper's brilliant direction, as well Danny Cohen's cinematography and Eve Stewart's production design.
'Le Miserables' is sung. There is no talking at all, but not to worry, the music is gorgeous, the melodies haunting and even though it's almost three hours long, the time flies by.
One of the biggest surprises is that Russell Crowe can sing. Of course not as good as Broadway musical star Hugh Jackman, but he doesn't embarrass himself.
The supporting cast including Samantha Barks as Eponine, daughter of the miserable innkeepers, who secretly loves Maris is excellent.
I gave 'Le Miserables' which opens on Christmas Day, 2012...4 1/2 bagels out of 5. This is a perfect holiday film.
Check out our video for John's score and some of our singing banter.
We have just reached 1004 SUBSCRIBERS so thank you everyone. Next goal 2000 so please SUBSCRIBE to our channel on YouTube and LIKE us on our Two Jews on Film Facebook page.
Happy Holidays and let us know what you think about 'Les Miserables'

August 4, 2011 —
By ROCKY PINCIOTTI
I believe that inquisitiveness, creativity and the need to communicate are basic human qualities. They are qualities that separate us from all other forms of life on earth. These are also qualities that truly define the role of an artist in the development of mankind. If you look at history, art is the pivotal marker that defines the centuries of mankind.
From man's early beginnings, we have made marks, built structures, arranged objects, told stories and reflected on the marvel of nature and the world around us. This is what artists do. In Walter Herzog's new movie titled "Cave of Forgotten Dreams," he explores early man's creative spark dating back to 31,000 years ago in the Chauvet caves of southern France. Creativity is in our very DNA.
Today the tools may have changed, but this longing to create is the same.
What is this need that drives us to build, describe, picture, explore, illustrate, arrange and re-arrange this physical world around us?
Whatever the reason, this deep-seated desire and drive to create is what builds our cities, designs our products and tells our stories, recording and sharing the beauty, peculiarity and mystery of both the real and imagined world around us.
In the Upper Delaware River region we are fortunate to have a large population of visual artists among us.
They have come here for the beauty of the landscape, the quiet rolling hills and the clean water and air, where they can concentrate on their own unique creative processes.
We have photographers who capture the perfect mist on a cow pasture or find beauty and personality in a crumpled pie tin. There are sculptors who turn clay, felt or twigs into objects of desire, balance and usefulness. There are painters, illustrators and conceptual artists that create images and ideas that make us take a second (and third) look at the world around us.
The assorted area galleries and art centers exhibit only a small amount of visual art that is produced in Sullivan and nearby Wayne counties. These exhibition spaces are, in a way, temples of creativity that give us a tiny glimpse into the wide variety of artists that we have living among us.
Over the years, it has been my job as gallery director at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance (DVAA) to curate, cajole, support and exhibit many of the artists in our region. Solo exhibitions are a way to focus on one artist's creative process and individual vision. Group exhibitions, member shows, small works shows and events like RiverFest are also a way to explore many creative endeavors at once.
Being an artist is a complicated pursuit. It is an essential part of our society while at the same time a profession that quite often looks outside it. The world needs artists because they show us not only what is around us in exacting or new light, but also things, places and objects that are yet to be imagined.
I envision a community that supports these artists by exhibiting their work, buying their wares, and engaging in a dialogue of their artistic journey, making the Upper Delaware a unique, creative and forward-thinking place to live.
[Rocky Pinciotti is gallery director at the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance in Narrowsburg, NY. He also curated the recent Art on the Edge show at the Hawley Silk Mill for the Wayne County Arts Alliance.]

A combination of edges and circles, Kisai Maru features an intuitive time display in mirrored LCD, framed by a custom designed, aluminium case with a faceted surface and dual color anodised finish.
Kisai Maru is a creative and functional design that includes time, date, alarm, backlighting and animation.
Maru means circle in Japanese and Maru displays the time in one simple curved line. The inner facing hand points to the hour, the outer facing hand points to the minutes. It's just like a conventional clock. See the animated explanation below to the right.
The date is read in exactly the same way, the inner hand points to the month, the outer hand points to the day. Beneath the mineral crystal lens, the mirrored LCD features a color tint that brings the display to life.
Kisai Maru is cast from high grade aluminium and is therefore a light wrist watch that's really comfortable to wear. The faceted surfaces on the casing taper at precise angles creating a futuristic appearance that contrasts with the simplistic time display.
The anodised case and strap has a satin finish and comes in stylish shades of black, silver or sienna. Each has a contrasting color tone that runs in a precise groove around the circular display and through the strap.
As well as time and date, Maru has an alarm and EL backlighting, so you can easily view the time at night. Kisai Maru features a custom designed animation which causes the display to spin and rotate once every five minutes, a function which can be turned on or off. See the video demo above to see this in action.
Kisai Maru has an adjustable strap making it suitable for small and large wrists and uses a standard CR2025 watch battery which will last at least 12 months and can easily be replaced.
Each part of Kisai Maru has been individually designed and manufactured, including the case, strap and uniquely programmed display.
Like all watches from Tokyoflash Japan it is a limited edition design which means that it is guaranteed to be an original watch that not many other people own.
In February 2010, Tokyoflash Japan opened its Design Studio Blog to showcase concept designs and request ideas for new watch designs from fans. The idea for Kisai Maru's display was submitted by Sam Jerichow from Germany. This is the eighth concept submitted by a fan to become reality.
Find out more about the original concept on the Tokyoflash Design Studio Blog.
Blog reader & watch designer Sam Jerichow says:
When I made my early sketches for the display, I was trying to give analog time telling a new guise. Then I actually designed a pocket watch for my new generation digital analog display.
When I saw the first images of the wrist watch, I was surprised how good it looked and how nicely the display has been embedded with the circle in the case and the all-around-the-wrist line in the strap. I'm now the proud owner of a sienna Maru. The satin finish is lovely and the mix of edges and circles works great!
The name Maru, that I gave the original concept, was translated in a fantastic way. Thank you Tokyoflash! I'd also like to thank my fans who say what they like and what they don't ;) - the support is great!

Diabetes Mellitis is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin, which affects how the body is able to use glucose for energy.
In order for cells to use glucose for energy, insulin must be present. In people with diabetes, the pancreas either produces little or no insulin (type 1), or the cells do not respond appropriately to the insulin that is produced (type 2 and gestational diabetes).
Glucose builds up in the blood, overflows into the urine, and passes out of the body in the urine. Thus, the body loses its main source of fuel.
The three main types of diabetes are:
When your physician diagnoses diabetes, it is likely that he or she will suggest, in addition to lifestyle changes, the following:
The goal of all diabetic treatment is to normalize blood glucose (sugar) levels as much as possible, and to minimize the following long term complications of diabetes:
While individuals with diabetes should check their blood sugar level multiple times per day, the best way to assess the overall level of glucose control is by taking a Hemoglobin A1C test. This provides an average of glucose levels over several months. National guidelines recommend that Hemoglobin A1C levels are measured four times per year. (The higher the Hemoglobin A1C, the more "uncontrolled" the diabetes.)
Routine monitoring of diabetes with a physician, and a coordinated care team, is very important in the proactive management of diabetes.
Lifestyle changes are critical in diabetes management, and are a routine and expected part of a conventional medical care plan. Some changes include:
Type 1 diabetes is not reversible or curable. With Type 2 diabetes, blood sugar can be normalized and managed without medication following adequate diet [9] and exercise [10], although the ADA has not yet established criteria for diagnosis of actual cure. The following therapies and healing practices are therefore presented primarily as ways of managing type 1 and type 2 diabetes, optimizing function, and minimizing complications.
The group of symptoms termed diabetes in conventional medicine has been treated for thousands of years with the system of Traditional Chinese Medicine [2] (TCM). TCM looks at signs and symptoms in the context of the whole person. Specifically this system looks at patterns of disharmony, as well as patients' emotional and psychological responses [13].
Unlike conventional medicine, TCM does not focus on determining or manipulating the blood sugar levels, but rather individualizes a plan to restore balance and harmony, depending upon the nature of the diagnosed imbalance. The most commonly employed therapeutic methods in TCM include acupuncture [14], moxibustion [15], Chinese herbal medicine [16], diet therapy [17], mind/body exercises [5] (Qigong [18]and Tai Chi), and Tui Na [19] (Chinese massage).
In 1997, the National Institutes of Health released a consensus statement saying that the use of acupuncture in the treatment of diabetes was classified as "effective, but further evidence required." It is important to acknowledge that the consensus statement referred to studies of acupuncture only, and not of the entire systemic approach.
Acupuncture [20] has been shown to lower glucose levels and has been demonstrated to improve peripheral neuropathy and neuropathic pain, one of the most common complications of type 2 diabetes.
Many Chinese herbs and formulations have been used safely for millennia; however, good data on herb/drug interactions is limited. Additionally, the FDA does not regulate the preparation, prescription, or distribution of herbs. Therefore, it is important to work with a reliable and trustworthy source for herbal products. Heavy metal contamination is a concern for products grown in China. Some of the most commonly used herbs in diabetes include: Panax Ginseng, Momodica charantia, Lagenaria siceraria, and Psidium gnajava. These herbs appear to enhance how glucose is metabolized in the body.
The following supplements can be beneficial for those with diabetes. Typical doses for each botanical [4]are indicated below. However, you should talk with your healthcare provider before adding botanicals to your health regimen and ask about the right dosage for you.
Conventional medications should not be discontinued in favor of herbs alone, unless they are weaned off over time, with close glucose monitoring. This requires a working team of an experienced physician and a knowledgeable TCM practitioner.
CAUTION: some herbs commonly used for weight loss may cause blood sugar levels to increase, including Coca seeds, Coffee seeds, Cola seeds, Guarana seeds, Mat'e leaves, and Ma huang.
Chronic stress [21] elevates cortisol levels, which negatively impacts many different systems of the body. Stress increases the release of glucose from the liver and decreases insulin receptor sensitivity, making insulin work less effectively.
Stress management [22] helps individuals be more effective in regulating their diet [9] and exercising [10], which are both critical to diabetic management. Meditation [23], the Relaxation Response, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and biofeedback [24] are just a few of the practices that have been used to manage stress, and have positive impacts on the diabetic patient. See an example of the positive impact of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction [6].
All of these approaches seek to optimize the body's ability to function. When integrating therapeutic approaches to diabetes, all patients must recognize the importance of careful monitoring of blood glucose levels, as well as monitoring for potential side effects, such as drug-herb interactions.
When new therapies and practices are added, ideally glucose levels will decrease or normalize, and prescription medications may need to be decreased in dose, or sometimes even eliminated. Therefore, reliable and regular self-testing of glucose levels, accurate recording/reporting, and frequent communication with your medical care team is critical.

Skip to comments.What if ...? (Hes not a natural born citizen)
Posted on 06/22/2012 9:27:36 AM PDT by Perseverando
Exclusive: Joseph Farah explains why he won't buckle on Obama eligibility issue
Its clear Republicans in office and seeking office this year are not going to attack Barack Obama where he is most vulnerable his very legitimacy to hold office under the Constitution as a natural born citizen.
Hes not a natural born citizen.
At least by his own admission, he was a dual citizen at birth. Of course, Obama is not known for telling the truth or even the same lie.
Prior to presidential ambitions he apparently got in 2007, he and his literary surrogates boasted of his being Kenyan-born. I dont know if that story was true or not. But it really doesnt matter. It also doesnt matter where he was born, but there is great suspicion and plenty of evidence to suggest he is lying with his new cover story about a Hawaiian birth.
But lets suppose for a moment that the evidence of Obamas ultimate election fraud becomes overwhelming after he leaves office in 2013, assuming he is defeated and has the decency to do what all past defeated presidents have done throughout American history.
What then?
What will it tell the American people about the enabling Republicans who were too afraid to challenge Obama when it really counted?
What will it mean for all of the legislation Obama signed during his four years in office?
What will it mean for the U.S. Supreme Court justices appointed for life terms by Obama?
What if the indisputable facts become widely known or perhaps even proven in a court of law?
Will Republicans just go on with business as usual?
Will it change the course of American history?
Or will we still be in a position where we just cant talk about matters of constitutional
(Excerpt) Read more at wnd.com ...
The truth is hate to those that hate the truth.
Freep on!!
What if... the Mercun Peepul actually cared?
Every congress person in D.C. KNOWS he's not eligible. That means every congress person in D.C. is either a coward or believes the constitution no longer applies.
here is the thing.
Prior to 2007 the policy was a parent must have lived in the USA for 5 years from her 14th birthday to vestow USA citizenship on a child born in another country. Stanely Ann did not meet that requirment
but NOW if you go to the usgov't site for citizens it says any child born to any USA citizen is considered ' natural born"
it uses that exact phrase, as a cover for 0dumbo.
I hope soneome kept the pages from 2004 that address this so we can compare it to what is there now
It's called aiding and abetting a felony. Pelosi will be the first to be tried.
Congress takes a hit for not doing its duty, but that's pretty much an every day shortcoming on everything - federalism, tax policy, spending policy -- all that is set by Congress.
It does not matter where BHO was born because he told us in his autobiography that his father was not a US citizen at the time of his birth. He is not "natural born", just like Marco Rubio is not.
The Dirty little Secret Of The Natural Born Citizen Clause Revealed.
AMICUS BRIEF Georgia POTUS Eligibility Cases.
Frank Marshall Davis is the real father and Obama knows it. Google Dreams from my real father.
At this point we literally have no idea where he was born, when, or who his parents were.
HI State Registrar, Alvin Onaka, just indirectly confirmed to AZ SOS Ken Bennett that the birth record they have for Obama is not legally valid, so Hawaii does NOT vouch for the claim that Obama was born in HI to BHO and Stanley Ann on Aug 4, 1961.
Obama has been using a birth certificate his whole life that is not from Hawaii. Presumably it is a legally-valid BC from somewhere else. Unless and until we see that legally-valid BC, there ARE NO legal birth facts for Obama, because the HI BC is not legally probative.
It's not just that Obama lies with every breath he takes; it's that there is no legal documentation to back up ANYTHING he's claimed about his birth.
I think the saddest thing about the Obama eligibility issue is that courts have been dodging making a clear pronouncement on whether "natural born citizen" should be understood in light of Vattel's notion of "native" (born in country to two citizen parents) as in Minor v. Happersett, or in light of the English common law notion of "natural subject" (subject, or citizen in our case, at the time of birth) as in U.S. v Wong Kim Ark.
Obviously, regardless of where he was born, Obama would be ineligible to be President if the Vattel notion applies.
"Birtherism", the position that Obama was born in Kenya (a notion that seems to have originated with Obama himself, or at least with his first literary publicist) is only relevant if the common law notion applies.
If, however, Obama was born in Kenya (or rather British East Africa), and his father was, in fact, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., not as some have claimed Frank Marshall Davis, then he not only is not a natural born citizen under either standard, but unless he was secretly naturalized, he is not even a citizen of the United States, since the prevailing law at the time would not have allowed a parent under the age of 21 to transmit citizenship to a child born outside the U.S. when the other parent was a foreign national. (The specification for transmission of citizenship being the parent be resident in the U.S. for ten years, five of which were after the age of 16. Ann Dunham was 18 at the time of Obama's birth.) Obama would be a British subject, or could have claimed Kenyan citizenship upon Kenyan independence, and/or a citizen of Indonesia based on his mother and step-father's application on his behalf, but would not a U.S. citizen at all, were he, in fact born in British East Africa.
I've come to the realization that the single greatest fear of birthers is that Obama just loses the election in 2012 because the economy is terrible.
There goes your whole hobby, nobody cares about the issue anymore, and it had nothing to do with Obama being removed from office.
natural born worked that way under the law in the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's to today.
It was even the case when states individually controlled immigration. born in the usa made a person natural born citizen.
One would think if that were true, and if he was born in Hawaii, then there'd be no problem. Though I don't believe the latter, at least. But I'm not on the cowardly Supreme Court either.
Had not seen this before, VERY interesting.

The Dirty little Secret Of The Natural Born Citizen Clause Revealed.
BHO is getting to be like Clinton in this respect: the "truth" is a lie that has yet to be discovered.
BHO is not even the first "black" president. His father was 87.5% Arab. In that respect we have had other presidents who had more black in their gene pool than BHO did. It is clear then that "black" is not a racial attribute. It is shorthand for how red he is.
And as far as I'm concerned, Obama and his mouthpieces should be hounded at every press conference about when he is going to apologize to the so-called birthers.
Wanna know my single greatest fear? That the country continues the lawlessness until we become "The Dark Knight". And ya know something? That is GUARANTEED to happen, regardless of who is elected at any given point in time, where there are no checks and balances, no separation of powers, no rule of law, and no Constitution.
Your assumption that you know what makes me tick is arrogant beyond belief.
"Ive come to the realization that the single greatest fear of birthers is that Obama just loses the election in 2012 because the economy is terrible."
That is not my fear. I don't know where you're coming from.
"There goes your whole hobby, nobody cares about the issue anymore..."
Sorry. People of integrity still care when the Constitution is being trashed.
I hope you're right but I hoped the same thing about the crooked Clintons so I won't be holding my breath.
Correctomundo! Stop right here. The rest of what you say is unnecessary and will only confuse others as it did me.
If Obama is not a "Natural Born" citizen of the United States ........ Then WHO CARES what country he IS a citizen of?
I believe VERY STRONGLY that Obama is an ILLEGAL ALIEN (or just an alien from another planet. He may have been HATCHED). I digress.
"...nobody cares about the issue anymore..."
So what in your opinion is worthy of discussion? American Idol?
If I were you, I'd keep looking for another realization, then. There are worse things to fear, if you're into that sort of thing.
Original? That's tagline material, that is. I would suggest a simple correction:
"The truth is hate to those who hate the truth."
STOP! with the "dual citizen" nonsense.
What matters, is that Obama was not a "natural born citizen" AT BIRTH! He wasn't! End of discussion!
What other countries, or your parents, bestow on you in the way of citizenship, has no bearing on your U.S. citizenship.
Let me repeat that!
************What other countries, or your parents, bestow on you in the way of citizenship, has no bearing on your U.S. citizenship. *************
Your U.S. citizenship is closely guarded by the United States. Your parents can't give it away. Other countries can't take it away. Your citizenship status is automatically protected for you. You must renounce it yourself in writing or by certain specified actions, such as joining a foreign military etc., and you must have attained the age of "majority". (sometimes 18, certainly 21).
We are talking about Obama as a child, so he was not old enough to have his citizenship status changed by ANYONE, not even himself.
If he were not born in the U.S.A then it doesn't matter either. He can't be eligible for president if not born of the soil, physically born HERE!
He probably is not a NBC but this is NEVER going to matter...except to us that care...
or born of a jackal... just sayin'
Things worthy of dicussions are things that have a chance of happening or actually affecting something. I don't see the point of living in an idealized fantasyland.
The idea that Obama would be removed from office before November, or removed from the ballot, is a delusional fantasy. That's completely removed from the issue of whether he SHOULD be, it's simply a reality of the current political structure and climate of the country (the "country" being a different entity than a group of conservative message boards and blogs).
It's 1,000 times more a delusional fantasy that if Obama loses (which he probably will) that the issue would still be actually pursued afterwards, that judges that had been appointed by Obama would be removed, etc.
And I remain absolutely convinced that the average Birther, deep down (and they'd never admit it) would be disappointed if Obama simply lost the election, and would prefer that he win, so they can maintain the fantasy of his later removal from office due to legal action.
And as I've of course observed before, the Birther issue is completely worthless on the POLITICAL side (in terms of persuading people not to vote for Obama) because they only people that take it seriously are people that already didn't vote for him in 2008 and certainly aren't going to in 2012.
ANYONE who voted for Obama in 2008 considers birthers a bunch of kooks and no new evidence of any sort will change that. If they vote for Romney in 2012, it will because of the economy, etc., not because they doubt his legal status to be President.
I assure you the information has been kpet safe, and the law as it read in 1961 is the law of record. The father of record (whether he donated sperm or not) is a Kenyan national, so little barry bastard commie, aka Barack H. Obama, aka, Barry Soetoro, aka Barry Dunham is not nor ever will be a natural born citizen. The oath breakers sitting in House and Senate seats, and nine black-robed liars in the SCOTUS know he is not an NBC yet they gladly break their oath to OUR Constitution in order to allow the affirmative action fraud to continue in power. Now, ask yourself why so many are so willing to violate their oaths?
"Why does it say 9...9...9... right here?"
It was even the case when states individually controlled immigration. born in the usa made a person natural born citizen.
sorry, you're incorrect.
being born on US soil can make someone a US citizen... but NOT NECESSARILY a natural born citizen. if the person was born of foreign national parents, that person would be a dual citizen. OBVIOUSLY not a natural born citizen
the cold hard truth:
a natural born citizen is a citizen naturally, as there are no alternatives.
There is NO long form that was generated in 1961. There are fraudulently manufactured documents the little commie bastard has been using with the corrupt officials in Hawaii giving him the hall pass, but there is NO 1961 Long Form in Hawaii ... unless Abercrombie has been able to slip the latest forgery intot he files, but of course there will be telltale data points to reveal that fraud also. But it matters not a whit any longer because the oath violators in DC have canceled OUR Constitution.
I think it is likely Frank Marshall Davis is the father and he was born in Kenya. That would make him a natural born, with two US citizens as parents, problem is they covered it up, BC might say unknown for father.
I would add judges to your list as well. Or just maybe the Constitution doesn't say what you think it says. I'd venture to say that at least 90% of the population don't see anything in the Constitution or the law that requires citizen parents to be eligible which make those who do believe that to be a fringe element....no better than the occupy wall street protesters.
Since when is Hawaii another country? You would be correct if we could prove that nobamma was born in Kenya.
If it comes to that, judges and politicians will interpret the term "natural born citizen" so as to make him eligible. It would be too embarrassing for them to concede that they just stood by silently and let an unqualified person serve as president for a full term.
If necessary, they could interpret natural born citizen to include an Irish potato.
With Rubio waiting in the wings? NEVER!
Not until all convicted traitors are swinging from trees on the national mall.
Probably because they are NOT breaking their oaths.
Your condemnation of all nine judges and all members of congress for not believing what YOU believe is dogmatic in the least and insane at the worst.
Would you be AS upset if you believed the moon was made out of cheese and they disagreed with you on that as well? There is no proof that the moon is made out of cheese and there is no proof that presidents require citizen parents...it's all in your head. I'd get it seen to!
I can think of about a dozen folks need a neck stretching way before these traitors
Even more troubling is we have "conservative" media who refuse to cover the Eligibility story...even attacking and ridiculing those who do
By now, if you are supposedly "conservative media" and are still refusing to cover Obama Eligibility, and attacking those who want it covered....you are actively helping in Obama's re-election
Not only has the GOP been chicken-poop scared....the so-called "conservative media" has been limp as well
I can think of about a dozen folks need a neck stretching way before these traitors
Then why all the fuss? There's something phoney about the whole thing. Sometimes I wonder if Stanley is even his mother. Who knows anything about this freak? Even he's likely tripped up over all his fakery somewhere along the line.
You do realize that the HDOH has recently indirectly confirmed that the record they have for Obama is not legally valid - which means that they knew both BC's Obama posted were forgeries as well as the newspaper birth announcements, and that they knew he used a different BC his entire life.... and yet they deceived the whole country and world. Right?
And you think that doesn't matter? If the whole system can lie to us about everything and keep the truth from making any difference, then exactly what DOES matter? What can't they do to us, if the above is just tripe, as you say?
The issue at this point is whether there is enough solid fabric left in America to make it even possible to mend and patch this nation into a workable piece again. If none of the above matters, then we don't have enough integrity for ANYTHING to make a difference. Maybe you're right; maybe that's where America is at. If so, stick a fork in her, 'cause she's done.
I'm holding on, just in case there are still enough people who want to live in America, and not the third-world cartel-controlled, lawless hellhole that America is fast becoming. Any system that allowed Obama to get in and do this to us is perfectly capable of turning Mitt Romney into the same thing. If you don't see that, then you are deceiving yourself about how big an enemy America truly faces.
They've been threatened. That's confirmed by Mike Zullo of Arpaio's Cold Case Posse. And that's another reason why this isn't just about some tee-hee side issue. This issue was important enough that Soros' people were willing to take even the CONSERVATIVE media hostage. And what's even scarier is that Soros has something that is able to hold the entire conservative media hostage. I think it's far bigger than just eligibility. I think Soros holds the entire system hostage to the threat of another run on the bank by he and his communist-Islamist alliance.
We are not talking piddles here. We are talking about things being so torn apart and dysfunctional that the Soros people believe they can do anything. And when you look at the breakneck speed at which Obama is claiming dictatorial powers - such as the right to assassinate US citizens for any reason at any time, no questions asked - I can't help but ask, "Who would ever stop him from doing anything he darn well pleased? If this guy committed murder right in front of our faces, who would arrest him?"
I know first-hand what some of Obama's lawlessness means. Brian Terry is not the only casualty of this regime's murderous schemes - nor will he be the last. Mark my words.
Let me just give one more hint. We can't even get a doctor to take a look at us without the government having a record of what the doctor found. That means that every assassination can be made to appear "natural". Anybody who visits a doctor can be a sitting target. That's the power that Obama has claimed and I don't see Romney coming anywhere close to rebuking him for it.
We are lambs being led to the slaughter. If we refuse to see the corpses littering the path it's our own darn fault when we're next.
Obama was not born in Hawaii, nor was he in Hawaii within the first 30 days of his birth. If he had been, he would have a LEGALLY-VALID Hawaii birth certificate. But Alvin Onaka just indirectly confirmed to AZ SOS Ken Bennett that the birth record Hawaii has for Obama is not legally valid.
Whatever BC Obama has been using his whole life - it was NOT from Hawaii. And Hawaii officials have known that all along.
I'd really like to believe all this but all I see is legal mumbo jumbo that makes no sense to me. Until ONE of you conspiracy kook can prove this BEYONE ANY DOUBT and legal minds believe it, then I'll follow suit. I am reminded of the Jonestown massacre. People believed and died. I will not drink your kool aid!
No, I like American white cheese.

Relationships_car_trouble_intro card1 of 12what his car says about him
The Pick-Up Truck2 of 12
By Natasha Burton
Not only can this guy haul heavy things (and help you move!), but his vehicle choice also shows he's a man's man who is willing to do the grunt work, whether it's of the manual labor variety or in your relationship.
The VW Van3 of 12
He's a hippie. Clearly. But a dude who keeps on truckin' in a groovy vehicle may either have a soft spot for nostalgia or be severely stuck in his trippy past. Which one is it? You'll have to get to know him better to tell for sure.
The Classic Car4 of 12
Sure, one could argue this guy's too attached in the past (like VW-van-man), but his love for classics shows that he appreciates that which can stand the test of time. A commitment-phobe he is not.
The Standard Sedan5 of 12
We know this no-frills fella may appear boring at first glance. But like his ride of choice, perhaps a sedan man is simply practical. Not a bad quality to have hangin' around.
The Flashy Sports Car6 of 12
If this dude didn't want people looking at him, he would have opted for a less flashy ride. A flaunt-what-he's-got guy loves the spotlight; the question is whether he'll move over and let any light shine on you.
The Sporty Hatchback7 of 12
Does your guy's ride allow him to keep golf clubs or diving gear in the back? This sign that he's always up for adventure can carry over into your relationship with him — making for one exciting ride.
The Teeny Eco-Car8 of 12
Sure, he's trying to be good to the environment, but he-who-drives-a-death-trap is a little suspect to us. And do we detect a tiny sense of entitlement in that annoying way he insists on parking that thing wherever he pleases?
The Jalopy9 of 12
Cracked window? Check. Rips in the upholstery? Check. Last week's McDonalds shoved under the passenger seat? Check. (Hint: This is your cue to run.)
The SUV10 of 12
We read these wheels as belonging to a very manly man — in control and built to last. There's always room for more in this guy's life. But does he want to fill up the car with kids or with still-in-the-picture frat buddies? And does he have any gas guzzling guilt?
The Monster Truck11 of 12
"Overcompensating for something" is the easy go-to when decoding this guy's ride. "Road hog" comes in second. But his tricked-out tendencies indicate he likes to go over-the-top, and that just might include affections (and gifts) for you, too.
The Scooter12 of 12
This guy is free as a bird — even if he is restricted from driving on freeways. A scooter man can zip swiftly into your life (possibly sweeping you off your feet in the process). But, he can jet out just as easily. Beware of childlike behavior.
