The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Methylcobalamin is the active, coenzyme form of Vitamin B12. While the body can readily absorb Vitamin B12 as cobalamin, it must further convert it into a coenzyme form, methylcobalamin, to become metabolically active. In this form, it is bioidentical to the predominant and active form found in the body. The "body-ready" Vitamin B12 in this formula is offered in a convenient nugget dosage form which is also suitable for vegetarians.
Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement for adults, take one (1) nugget daily, preferably at mealtime, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner; to be placed between the cheek and gum, under the tongue (sublingually) or chewed.
Other Ingredients
Mannitol†, microcrystalline cellulose, silica, vegetable cellulose, vegetable stearic acid, vegetable magnesium stearate, natural cherry flavor.
†Provides a dietarily insignificant amount of sugar alcohol.
Free of: Gluten, wheat, dairy, soy, yeast, sugar, sodium, artificial flavor, preservatives and color.
If you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medication or have a medical condition, please consult your healthcare practitioner before taking any dietary supplement. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not use if outer bottle seal is missing, torn or damaged in any way.

I'd been taking Jarrow's Methyl B-12 but it always produced tiny granules while dissolving that made me choke. Plus it contained flavoring without revealing if it was natural. It also contained citric acid which erodes tooth enamel. And then they switched from glass to plastic bottles. It was time for a change, so I switched to this Solgar product and like it much better. Fast dissolving, non acidic and great taste.
I battled aspergillosis and MCS, and started on this one. I was slowly getting better. I take some other supplements, so when I ran out of it, I did not really mind, thinking it will be fine. In 3 days,I all the improvements were gone! I became super-tired, my lungs started hurting again, fainting when exposed to chemicals, etc. Went to the local health-store, bought a new bottle and was better by the evening.. True miracle, and no poison in these nuggets. Good taste, not dry to chew (like Twinlab YIKES!) and instant energy! I LOVE them

Boosts vitamin B12 and taste good

My vitamin B level is low, 150. In Japan normal is considered 500! Maybe that is why they have lower rates of depression. After 2 years on a vegan diet I am taking these to boost my vitamin B12 levels. They are tiny and pleasant to taste.

Dr. Reddy's Laboratories (NYSE: RDY) is one of the biggest players in generic drugs, offering more than 200 off-brand medications in the areas of cardiovascular disease, pain management and oncology, among others. In fact, this India-based company has become one of the largest makers of generics in the world, helping to drive more than 20 percent annual compounded earnings growth at the company over the past decade.
Drug spending is a major cost center for the government, with more than $325 billion worth of pharmaceuticals purchased last year. Less expensive but just as effective generic medications accounted for nearly 84 percent of those prescriptions, as physicians try to treat lifestyle-related diseases without breaking the bank.
In the emerging markets, health care spending is experiencing a similar explosion, as incomes have grown and standards of living improve. It is estimated that there are now at least 350 million people suffering from diabetes around the world, as obesity becomes a growing concern in virtually every region.
According to data from the International Diabetes Foundation, India and China are running neck and neck for the most sufferers of diabetes. They're followed by the US, which falls into third place with an estimated 30 million diabetes patients alone, to say nothing of other lifestyle related illnesses such as heart disease.
As life expectancies continue to lengthen both in the US and abroad, other age-related ailments such as dementia will also become a growing concern.
That's why pharmaceuticals account for the lion's share of growing health care spending, with drug sales expected to reach USD550 billion annually by 2020. The only way both national governments and patients can cope with those rising costs is to continue relying on less expensive but just as effective generic drugs.
Generic drugs are typically equivalent to a branded original in terms of efficacy, but often cost less than a third than the original. As a result, emerging market consumers who typically pay for medications out of their own pockets are increasingly opting for generic drugs while in the US, insurance companies are steering consumers in that direction.
While Dr. Reddy's products are becoming increasingly popular in the US, where it offers generic versions of drugs such as Plavix and Lipitor, the bulk of its sales are in emerging markets.
The company benefits from the fact that, thanks to its home location of India, it can manufacture its products at an extremely low cost. Its gross margin typically runs in excess of 50 percent, as drug utilization rates continue to increase even as overall spending may be in decline.
The company also invests heavily in research and development, spending between 6 percent and 7 percent of its annual revenues on developing generic versions of popular drugs while also coming up with novel products of its own. It is increasingly working in areas where there is little existing competition to introduce new drugs, an advantage that will drive the company's long-term profitability.
The company is now pushing its geographic reach, working to grow its presence in fast growing markets such as China by expanding its sales force and working with local regulators to help smooth the approval process.
With the recent budget battle in the US reflecting growing concerns over rising health care costs, companies such as Dr. Reddy's will continue to grow earnings at an above-average pace. That's a major reason why Dr. Reddy's, which has more than doubled its earnings over the past three years, has outperformed major indexes over the past the year, even as consumer staple and health care stocks have increasingly become laggards in the market.

World Market Center Tabs Designer Lowell to Create Display
June 24, 2010,
Christopher Lowell
LAS VEGAS-Designer Christopher Lowell has been enlisted by the World Market Center to create an integrated merchandising display for lighting and home-accessory retailers for the upcoming Las Vegas Market, scheduled for Aug. 2-6.
Called "Illuminated: A Lighting & Accessories Showcase for Success," the display will be open daily during the August market in room 1096 of Building C. Lowell's display will also focus on teaching retailers how cross-merchandised products can enhance the store environment, thus opening up the possibility of stronger sales overall.
An interior designer and author, Lowell has hosted several television shows on home design including "The Christopher Lowell Show" on Discovery Channel and "Work That Room with Christopher Lowell" on the Fine Living Network (now the Cooking Channel). He also has product license programs with Jo-Ann Stores, Office Depot and Simplicity Pattern Co.
The display will include the participation of a number of manufacturers of both lighting and accessory products. Its debut will be marked by a cocktail reception on the opening day of the market, at 5 p.m.

The overriding tone of this year's edition of the Other Israel Film Festival is one of melancholy, tinged with a degree of exhaustion. It is as if the intractable problems of the Jewish state and its Palestinian neighbors have worn down all the participants, the ossified positions that all sides have taken for so long have become so deeply ingrained that they seemingly will not admit the possibilities of positive change.
Of course, that is not the message of every film on offer in the fifth annual version of the event, which opens its weeklong run on Nov. 10, but one comes away from even some of the more optimistic works with a certain amount of sadness.
Consider the opening night film, "Dolphin Boy," co-directed by Dani Menkin and Yonatan Nir. Like Menkin's first feature documentary, "39 Pounds of Love," this is an inspiring story of a young man overcoming the seeming limitations of mind and body. Morad used to be a popular and successful high school student until the older brother of a female classmate intercepted what he (mistakenly) took to be a provocative text message.
The result was a brutal, systematic beating that left Morad unable to communicate with anyone. But over the next several years, Morad underwent a unique program of "dolphin therapy" in Eilat where he gradually became at home with the aquatic mammals and, eventually, with the humans who worked in the program as well.
Menkin and Nir were fortunate that Morad's doctor Ilan Kutz kept video and audio recordings of the early stages of their work, as well as formidably complete case notes. As a result, we can literally see how one severely damaged young man slowly regains his identity, his memory and his selfhood under the most unusual circumstances. At the same time, the film subtly stresses its other message, voiced by Morad's father, "Through anger I won't save anything."
But if the film's ending is affirmative, one is also left with the sense of loss that is inevitable when Morad leaves the dolphin reef in Eilat to resume his old life once more.
"Torn," directed by Ronit Kertsner, and "77 Steps" by Ebtisam Mara'ana are even more somber in their overall effect. In a sense, the documentaries are two sides of the same coin, stories of people who have chosen to cast their fates with Israel in some deep way, even though their identities are contested.
The protagonist of "Torn" is Father Romuald Wexler-Waskinel, a Catholic priest from Lublin, Poland, who found out he was a Jewish hidden child a dozen years after he was ordained. In Lublin he has valiantly tried to serve as "an emissary between the Jews and the Catholic Church in Poland," and his denunciations of Catholic anti-Semitism have been forthright and unequivocal. Now he wants to honor his birth parents, who were ardent Zionists, by settling in Israel.
But he is caught between his identities; in the eyes of the Israeli government, he is a Jew who is practicing another religion and thereby forfeits his right of return. Yet he had no knowledge of his Jewish identity until long after he began practicing Catholicism, and he sees himself as a Jew by birth, by blood and by identification. There doesn't appear to be a happy resolution to his dilemma, a sad reminder that, as the old legal saw has it, "hard cases make bad law." And broken hearts.
Ebtisam Mara'ana told the story of the fishing village in which she grew up in her earlier film "Promised Land," but more recently she chose to relocate to Tel Aviv, a decision that alienated her mother and, as she herself admits, "intensified my constant feeling of pain, of alienation and rejection," as an Arab living in the Jewish state. But not long after she finds an apartment, she also finds her neighbor Jonathan, a Canadian Jew, and the two begin a seemingly warm relationship.
To some extent, each of them accepts the reality that, as she tells him, "There are many days we won't be able to celebrate together," but the tensions between them, only partly about Middle East politics, are finally insurmountable. Mara'ana ends the film alone again, but more committed than ever to making a life in Tel Aviv.
Perhaps the oddest inclusion in this year's festival is also the most impressive debut feature, "Naomi," directed by Eitan Tzur from Edna Mayza's adaptation of her novel "Hitpartzut X."
Set in Haifa, the film follows the slow moral disintegration of a 58-year-old astrophysicist, Ilan (Yossi Pollak), something of a minor TV celebrity, as he begins to doubt the faithfulness of his lovely 28-year-old wife Naomi (Melanie Peres). Tzur treats this material with the deft and corrosive wit of Claude Chabrol, skewering his bourgeois protagonists as they struggle with paranoia, guilt and an impulsive, shattering act of spontaneous violence that undermines everything Ilan has ever wanted.
It's a cunning piece of work from the first-time director and one eagerly awaits further efforts from him.
Perhaps some viewers will also await the second and third installments of "The Promise," a BBC production whose opening segment will have its U.S. premiere during the festival. At least in Part One, this is a rather laborious melodrama that juxtaposes the diaries of a young British soldier in the waning days of the British Mandate with the introduction to contemporary Israeli politics of his granddaughter who is visiting a school friend and her family. The period material is not without a certain intelligence and drive; this is the sort of thing that the BBC can do in its sleep. But the modern-day stuff is clichéd and rhetorical, with even-handedness meaning that all sides take turns being dreadful to one another. It is patently unfair to judge a four-and-a-half hour miniseries on its first 90 minutes, although that is all that is on offer, but I'm not optimistic about the remaining three hours.
The fifth annual Other Israel Film Festival runs from Nov. 10-17 at the JCC in Manhattan (76th Street and Amsterdam Avenue), the Cinema Village (22 E. 12th St.) and other venues throughout the city. For information, go to www.otherisrael.org or call (646) 505-5708.

What is it with the JCC in Manhattan? The JCC is right there in the forefront of being critical of Israel." The Other Israel"? How about "The Other Egypt" which would be all about how the Jews are treated in, say, Egypt, or in any of dozens of other Islamic countries? "The Other Islamic World" would be the way to go, if you have nothing better to do with your time. Here is the JCC again, at the forefront of not telling people about Israel in all its complicated Jewish aspects and nature aspects, for example, but about the poor, exploited "other" population in this small country that has every right to be the Jewish state, not the state that is there for everyone to come so that the Jewish population is not considered the whole. Who does that with any Arab or Islamic country? Who does that, JCC in Manhattan?
I am not sure these are supposed to be "feel good" movies :) They are more on the real side, and they all look really interesting. I noticed that they have some discount codes on their Facebook page, so I will def be using those to get my tickets: https://www.facebook.com/OtherIsrael
Indeed- our festival is not about "feel good" movies or "feel bad movies" these are movies about a population in Israel that is often neglected in the media (except when throwing stone) and a great opportunity see the %20 of Israel that is not Jewish. Please come. You will find our festival stimulating and engaging and I promise you "NO MELANCHOLY".
Dear Mr. Robinson, the inclusion of Naomi was not odd- you just did not get it. The policeman who is the protagonist's best friend is an Israeli Arab who grew up next to him in Haifa and who has continued to be his best friend.
This will be a major subject of discussion at the film. It is a shame that you discouraged people from coming

Pension tax relief calculator
How little could your pension contribution cost you?
Remember, tax rules can change over time and the relief you receive will depend upon your circumstances.
Calculate the tax relief you could receive on your lump sum personal pension contribution below:
You can receive up to 45% pension tax relief for this tax year (2016/2017) when you make a contribution to a pension such as the Vantage SIPP. Basic, higher and top-rate taxpayers can benefit: the higher your rate of tax, the more you could receive.
For example:
- You contribute £8,000 into your pension.
- The government adds £2,000, to make a total investment of £10,000.
- Higher and top-rate taxpayers can then claim back even more via their tax return. £10,000 in a pension could therefore effectively cost a 40%-rate taxpayer as little as £6,000 and a 45%-rate taxpayer as little as £5,500.
Please note, this calculator illustrates how much tax relief you could receive on your pension contribution, not if you're eligible to make the contribution. Check how much you can contribute
You must pay sufficient tax at the higher or top-rate to claim the full higher (40%) or top (45%) rate tax relief.
Start a Vantage SIPP today. It's FREE to set up, easy to manage, full of investment
choice and you can open one online in minutes. Start contributing now with a lump sum
(from £100) or monthly (from £25).
At a glance: pension tax relief
Your personal pension tax relief depends on your individual circumstances. Below are the generic UK pension tax relief rules for the 2016/2017 tax year.
- Non-taxpayers - non-taxpayers receive basic-rate tax relief. For those without earned income, the maximum payment is £2,880 to which the taxman adds £720 to make a total gross contribution of £3,600.
- Basic-rate taxpayers - Basic-rate taxpayers receive 20% tax relief. For instance, you make a payment of £8,000 to which the taxman adds £2,000 to make a contribution of £10,000.
- Higher-rate taxpayers - Higher-rate taxpayers receive 20% pension tax relief, and can claim back up to a further 20% through their tax return. With higher-rate tax relief, a £10,000 contribution could effectively cost as little as £6,000.
- Top-rate taxpayers - Top-rate taxpayers receive 20% tax relief, and can claim back up to a further 25% through their tax return. With top-rate tax relief, a £10,000 contribution could effectively cost as little as £5,500.

New American Express card charge is sky high but offers cheap flights to Europe
American Express is tempting credit card spenders to splash out thousands of pounds with its British Airways card in return for cheap flights to Europe.
However, the Premium Plus card comes with a bumper £150 annual fee and should only be considered by credit-worthy applicants able to pay back the high sums borrowed.
Those eligible will receive enough bonus points for two return flights to Rome
New customers who take out the card before midnight on August 1 will receive enough bonus points for two return flights to destinations including Rome, Berlin or Copenhagen, for £27 per person standard class.
However, the offer is subject to a £3,000 spend on the card within just three months.
And if a customer fails to pay this off, the cost for borrowing could be high.
The average annual rate for purchases is 19.9 per cent. With the fee included, the typical APR soars to an eye-watering 50.1 per cent.
This is despite the fact that a number of credit cards waive any interest owed on purchases for up to 18 months.
Kevin Mountford, head of banking at MoneySupermarket, says: 'The interest charged could offset the benefits earned. 'Customers need to weigh up the bonus miles against the high annual fee and make sure they can afford to repay the balance in full each month, as the card doesn't offer any promotional rates on purchases or balance transfers.'
Experts also warn that credit card firms can ratchet up profits through 'breakage', which is when customers tot up points but never claim them.

New Mexico's non-profit groups do not pay gross receipts taxes for commercial services or for goods sold.
They'd like to keep it that way.
The state's Blue Ribbon Tax Committee meets this week to consider a series of tax proposals it will recommend to Gov. Bill Richardson. One proposal would require non-profit agencies collect gross receipts taxes on items such as Girl Scout cookies or clothing from the Salvation Army's thrift store.
Officials with several non-profit groups gathered at Clovis-Carver Public Library on Tuesday to voice concerns against the possibility.
"I want to clarify that donations would not be taxed — and thank goodness for that," said Nancy Taylor of Clovis' Food Bank, which supplies the needy over a nine-county area of the state.
But Taylor said her group and others like it would suffer if it were required to pay a gross receipts tax — more than 6 percent in Curry County — on goods sold.
"Two of our trucks are basically going to be totally wiped out," Taylor said. "Folks, we can't afford that and there's a lot of New Mexico product that's going to go to waste."
Erinn Burch, executive director of the Curry County United Way, said she doesn't believe a 6-percent tax would keep people from purchasing candy from youth groups or keep them away from the thrift store. "They're never going to be able to purchase jeans for 50 cents anywhere else in town," she said. But she urged her fellow non-profit directors at the press conference to send input to legislators opposing a gross receipts tax.
Leaders of some groups, whose existence is derived through grant money, also expressed worry over their situations.
Dawn Pivonka, director of Youth Opportunities Unlimited, said she understood that the grants themselves — which mostly come from the state — would be taxed under one proposal.
That, according to Pivonka, would reduce the amount of the grants that her group relies upon.
"It basically means one less counselor for us, and we only have two," Pivonka said. "All of the Children, Youth and Families (department) contractors have gotten together and discussed exactly what this would mean. It's going to seriously hurt us."

Swedenborg: To Believe or Not to Believe
To Believe or Not to Believe
This semester I was introduced, by my psychology instructor, to a very interesting individual who caused much controversy in the classroom because of his ideas and theories of the existence of a spiritual world. I found this person to be both intriguing and thought-provoking for I am greatly interested in this topic of spiritual existences. This fascinating individual's name is Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) who was a very influential philosopher and scientist during his time. His influences and contributions to the sciences were so significant, that even till today his accomplishments and theories are still remembered and taught to people who are willing and even ready to listen.
It is known throughout the history of science that Swedenborg anticipated and predicted many scientific facts before they were ever discovered in more modern times. Because of this fact, I truly feel that Swedenborg should not be totally disregarded and should be included in science, philosophy, and psychology books. Just because he switched from studying the physical science to a science of spiritual inquiry doesn't mean that his intelligence or predictive knowledge's have gotten out of line. His predictions about facts in many sciences were proven to be correct later in time, so Swedenborg just might be correct in anticipating people's realization of a spiritual world and how God governs the way people think, feel, and act. His theories hold much explanations of why we are the way we are and why we exist. If he is included in the history of psychology, people will have the access to his theories and have the choice to believe him or not. People should have this choice and maybe it will teach them how to keep an open mind and keep the mind's cup half full to leave room for new information, even if not ready or willing to accept ideas that are presented.
A. J. C. "Swedenborg, Emanuel." Encyclopedia Britannica.11th Edition. 1911.
Reference#: Ref. AE5 E36 v. 26 cop.4
I went to the first floor of the Hamilton Library to the encyclopedia section. At first I couldn't find the Encyclopedia Britannica's so I had to ask the librarian for a little assistance. I finally found the edition I was looking for and looked up Swedenborg, Emanuel. I decided to choose this short write up on Swedenborg because it was suggested by my psychology instructor; also because encyclopedia entries tend to be precise and to the point in presenting materials. The entries also tend to pick out only the real relevant and important facts about the subject being written on.
encyclopedia entry discussed briefly on Emanuel Swedenborg's life and it
presented his major predictions and contributions to the sciences. Here it was
shown that Swedenborg did indeed predict many scientific facts and positions
before they were ever really taken seriously by other scientists. For example,
he came up with the nebular hypothesis theory of the formation of the planets
and the sun way before Kant and
Those were just a few examples of Swedenborg's theories in the physical sciences that proved to hold many truths today, so why not hold his ideas of the spiritual world with some regard also. His spiritual theories tend to explain how the spiritual world influences people's thoughts, feelings, and actions. This can be another type of psychological explanation of why people are the way they are. Like the encyclopedia entry implied, Swedenborg changed to study the spiritual to broaden his interests, so people should do the same, even if not really will ready to accept what is said.

In this book Helen Keller writes on her views on Swedenborg's teachings and how it changed her life dramatically. She writes on how he taught of love and on how love is the essence of almost everything one does, feels, and thinks. From Swedenborg's teachings, Keller got a sense of understanding herself. Understanding oneself better is a goal of psychology, thus here is reason why Swedenborg should be included in the study of psychology. She also writes on how love, ". . . gives the senses of touch, smell, taste, sight, and hearing... "The senses are also topics in psychology, so more the reason why I feel Swedenborg's theories should be included in psychology. Even though Helen Keller was blind, with her open mind she was able to believe in Swedenborg and was quoted, "One thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see." Maybe in the future Swedenborg will be proven to be correct and then others will then see also.
Odhner, Hugo Lj. The Spiritual World.
Reference #: BX8711 .034 1968
way I found this reference was I went to
This book was very interesting in that it studied and surveyed many of Swedenborg's testimonies and theories on the spiritual world. It contained many earlier testimonies on psychology by Swedenborg. In chapter 3, entitled 'Death and Resurrection, Swedenborg is referenced as making a connection between how the bodily function of circulation of the blood that warms the body and the spiritual heat are interconnected or related to each other. The flow of blood that provides the heat that maintains life is the "conatus" or spiritual heat of the soul. When the heart stops and bodily heat is lost completely, this when the connection between the material body and spiritual soul separate. This section in itself is proof that Swedenborg should be included in psychology, because this is logical theory that just might be correct. Maybe later in the future when everyone's mind is broader minded, we'll find his theory has undeniable merit after all.
Sutton, Eric A. The Living Thoughts of Swedenborg.
Reference #: BX 8711 A7 878
found this book in the
In this book, Sutton mentions some of Swedenborg's anatomical and physiological studies. Here Swedenborg wanted to find the nature of the soul. During the course of his studies, Swedenborg discovered the real nature of the cerebrospinal fluid way before Cotugno, who was given the recognition of its discovery. This is just an example of one of Swedenborg's theories that was at first disregarded until a later date when it was found to be true. Swedenborg's anatomical and physiological studies should somehow be included in psychology because his findings are being seen as holding merit. By not recognizing his theories, is just a great loss to the study of human beings, for Swedenborg is regarded as, "… learned anatomist and sharp—sighted observer . . . and in many respects unprejudiced, acute, and a deeply anatomical thinker."
Swedenborg, Emanuel. Earths in the Universe.
Reference #: HAML BX 8712 .E3 1970
found this book on the first floor of the
This whole book is on the existence of spirits and angels on other planets or earths in our Universe. Swedenborg tells of the relationships and the natures of these spirits in regard to the different planets. The book tells how spirits can communicate with one another and with man on earth. What I found interesting about it is that Swedenborg said that the spirits who are with man are in possession of all things in his memory. What I gather from this statement is that man or people can be read by spirits and thus in a way influence by them mentally. For this reason, I feel that Swedenborg should be included in the history psychology because this shows how the spiritual world influences people's minds. This issue of the mind is an issue that is debated over greatly in the history of psychology. Swedenborg's ideas on the mind just might the theory that people might chose to believe.
Swedenborg, Emanuel. Heaven and Hell.
Reference #: HAML BX 8712 .H 1984
found this book in
book was very complete in Swedenborg's explanation of the existences of both
spiritual heaven and hell in different states of minds. In my opinion, to some
extent, this book presented the ideas of how Swedenborg's interests were geared
toward his attitudes of the nature of wisdom and intelligence. According to
Swedenborg, by us receiving this knowledge of the spiritual world it will help
to enhance our understanding of life both here and hereafter. This shows how
Swedenborg should be regarded and included in the study of psychology because
by understanding the after-life we'll have a better understanding of our
existence here on earth. By maintaining an open mind and by studying the
spiritual realm, people will be better prepared to become self-aware and
develop the capability to be able to reason better also. Swedenborg might be
proven to be totally correct on these explanations of the after world some
years from now.

UHM AV/C. Videotape 123 BETA. 1982.
I found this videotape by going to Hamilton Library's UN CARL. I did a name search on Emanuel Swedenborg and it gave me a listing of books and even the title of this videocassette. This video could be found in Sinclair Library's AV center on the third floor where it could be viewed also. I decided to watch this video because it was highly recommended by my psychology instructor and by some of my classmates because it's brief but excellent overview of Swedenborg's extraordinary life.
The first part of this video shows some of Swedenborg's discoveries, research activities, and his spiritual and philosophical beliefs. It showed how Swedenborg was a very influential person because of his remarkable theories and discoveries in the sciences. It also showed how Swedenborg made his switch from doing physical research to research of the spiritual. Just because Swedenborg decided to broaden his horizons by studying the spiritual, he was thought of as kind of losing his mind by his maid and friend. This shows how closed minded people are because they didn't even really give Swedenborg a chance to really explain his visions to them. If people were just a little more open—minded about new ideas and concepts, think of how much more knowledge everyone could obtain.
second part of this video showed an individual by the name of John Chapman, who
was totally devoted to the teachings of Swedenborg. He went around the

Synnestvedt, Big. "Swedenborg, Emanuel." Encyclopedia
Reference #: Ref. Ae 5 .E333 1991 v.26
I found this encyclopedia in Hamilton Library on the first floor where all the encyclopedias are located. I decided to use this encyclopedia entry on Swedenborg because it not only contained information of Swedenborg, but it also contained a brief overview of "Swedenborgians," which is something extra that I thought may be of some help to support my thesis statement.
This encyclopedia entry was a very brief overview of Emanuel Swedenborg's life and contributions. What was of great interest to me was the fact that it contained only his major contributions and fields of interest. What was included was a short listing of just some of his studies, such as mechanics, cosmology, anatomy, mathematics, economics, geology, chemistry, and metallurgy. It also includes his great interest in the Bible.
In the section under 'Theology, it states that Swedenborg's central interest turned to the nature of the human soul. It states that Swedenborg taught of man's spiritual freedom and responsibility. It also says how Swedenborg taught that, practical love is a necessity in every relationship." This shows how Swedenborg taught on human responsibilities and human relationships. How the spiritual world affects people is a kind of explanation of why people are they way they are and why people act like how they do toward one another. The field of psychology also studies why people are the way they are, but tend to reject Swedenborg's theories just because it includes God and can't really be proven. Swedenborg's theories should be regarded here with open mindedness because it's logical to think that his theories on human relations and responsibilities governed by God are not far fetched at all, unless you're an atheist.

In the chapter entitled, "Swedenborg Science," it states the contributions that Swedenborg had made throughout the course of his life. It was brought to my attention here also, that Swedenborg was the first to discover many scientific findings, but for some reason was not really given proper credit for them. For example, Swedenborg was the first to discover the localization of the functions of the brain. He was thought to be more than a century ahead in many of his discoveries. In my opinion, this shows how Swedenborg should have been included in the history of psychology because he did discover the functions of the brain. Like this book said, he is more than a century ahead in his discoveries, so with an open mind we might just find that Swedenborg is correct even with his spiritual findings.
Van Dusen,

In the last section of this book Van Dusen comments on Swedenborg meditation. It was mentioned that this was the method at which Swedenborg obtained his enlightenment. Van Dusen himself meditated and found it is very relaxing. According to Swedenborg, God is aware and governs all and this is what Van Dusen discovered. While meditating Van Dusen says that you cannot meditate "...without coming to the conclusion that there is something wiser within." This implies that if one properly meditates like how Swedenborg did, one should be able to realize one's true self and even the presence of God. Van Dusen keeping an open mind to Swedenborg's ideas has come to realize him a little more. This is part of psychology because meditation has to do with states of mind and body.
Woofenden, William Ross. Swedenborg and 20th century Thought.
Reference #: HAML BX 8748 .W65 1981
got this book by going to the first floor of the
In one section of the book, Woofenden quotes Swedenborg on his definition of what is a science. Swedenborg's spiritual theories were not considered scientific findings, thus he was left out of psychology. But according to Swedenborg and Woofenden, the sciences are nothing more than, ". . . a means becoming wise, or of forming one's rational mind... like how languages are ways of developing thought. According to this definition of the sciences, Swedenborg should be included in the history of the sciences, including psychology because his theories do indeed help in becoming wiser and more rational beings. Opening our minds to the comprehension of the existence of the spiritual world, will definitely develop people's thinking and learning skills.
Do You Believe
Overall, by doing this research to answer the question if Swedenborg should be included in the history of psychology, the more I believe that he definitely should be. He was proven to be correct on almost all of his scientific discoveries, so I feel that he just might be correct in his ideas of the existence of the spiritual world. Swedenborg's knowledge of things are known to be far beyond his time, so maybe in the future this statement will be proven undeniably true beyond doubt.
What people must realize today is to keep the mind's cup always half full to leave room for new information to pour in. If one keeps one's mind full, close mindedness results with no new learning of information. Even if not ready or willing to completely accept Swedenborg's idea of the spiritual world and how it governs us, people should accept it as another possible theory of why we act, think, and feel the way we do. By totally disregarding Swedenborg from the history of psychology is a shame for other's are denied the right to decide for themselves if they want to accept Swedenborg's psychological views of man's existence.

With voluntary minicamp and OTAs in the rearview mirror and mandatory minicamp going on currently as I'm writing this article, we don't have a huge sample size, but we have had a long enough look at the new faces on the Texans roster to start drawing some conclusions.
The Texans are dealing with a lot of roster turnover and a new system on both offense and defense, so the offseason practices that are usually treated as routine have taken on more importance this year under new head coach Bill O'Brien.
Considering the only player O'Brien decided to bring back was tight end Garrett Graham, I think that's a pretty good indication of his opinion on the roster he took over when he was hired in January.
Nearly every player on this list will be asked to start or at least be a contributor early on. O'Brien is trying to put his own stamp on this team, and one of the themes he's preached through OTAs and minicamp has been versatility.
He wants players who can contribute at multiple positions or on special teams on top of their regular position, and that strategy was evident with the choices the Texans made with the players added during free agency and the draft.

'Lottery Ticket' Producers Hit With Lawsuit
Film bosses behind upcoming movie Lottery Ticket have been hit with a lawsuit from a screenwriter who alleges his idea was stolen.
Tom Huang filed papers at Los Angeles County Superior Court on Wednesday claiming he wrote a treatment for a movie plot in 2004 and talked it over with his agent Brad Kaplan.
The writer alleges Kaplan "stole" the idea and passed it on to his client Erik White, who wrote and directed Lottery Ticket, about a young man who has to fend off his greedy neighbors when they discover he's holding a winning ticket worth $350 million."
Huang claims the film, which is due for release later this month, includes parts of his story such as "detailed plot elements, characters, and scenes," reports TMZ.com.
He is seeking an undisclosed amount but states in the legal documents that Lottery Ticket, starring Ice Cube, is likely to make millions of dollars in profit.

Mandriva, The Distro-Zombie That Refused To Die
Instead of being just a supplier of GNU/Linux, Mandriva has added plenty of software and services all its own aimed at businesses. They must even have salesmen… In their enthusiasm they wrote, "In 2006, hundred of millions of personal computers pre-installed with Linux were shipped, particularly to South America, East Europe, Russia, North Africa and India. Mandriva also participates in thematic projects with Intel, such as the Classmate PC." With optimism/ambition like that they could go far. We await the next chapter…

Welcome Catholic Moms! › Forums › Raising Great Kids! › Child being left out at school › Re: Child being left out at school
June 17, 2011 at 1:45 am #4003
It's not really a good experience that your son have, a child experience must be wonderful to cherish and be remembered but if this kind of experiences happen this would give effect when he grow up.
I can't suggest any prayers but one thing I could suggest is your full support and care to let your son won't feel that he is left alone. There are boot camps that could twist some experiences like some kids do. On boot camps physically and mentally they will be helped.

Peterson and the Bills (and other perfect fits)
It's funny how things can change so quickly in the weeks leading up to the draft. Stocks can rise like the dot-com's of the late 90s – or plummet like those same stocks in 2000 (March of 2000, to be exact, and I know because I have gained back only one sleeve of the shirt I lost that month). There's a lot of luck involved in terms of where a player goes, especially for a RB. Once free agency is over, there are usually only a handful of teams with an obvious need at the position, and this year those teams are the Browns, Bills, Packers, and Titans.
Everyone assumed the Browns would use the #3 pick on either RB Adrian Peterson or T Joe Thomas, but it's now starting to come to the surface that the Browns might be ready to pull the trigger on QB Brady Quinn, provided the Lions pass on Quinn. It started with Quinn's strong private workout – attended by Brown ownership – and when they team signed Jamal Lewis it intensified. Signing Lewis (for only one season) would certainly not preclude them from also drafting Peterson, and they did unload Reuben Droughns, but it's clear that […]

ACM's second annual Student Symposium on Off-Campus Study was held in Chicago on April 16-17, featuring presentations and panel discussions by 33 students from ACM colleges who have studied in locations around the globe – from Japan to Italy to Botswana to Argentina to Chicago, and many points in between.
Off-campus study is an increasingly important part of undergraduate education, especially at the ACM colleges, and the Symposium serves as a showcase of the profound impact that studying off campus can have on students' education, career choices, and personal lives.
This year, the Symposium was streamed live on the ACM website. See the Participant List and the Schedule for links to video clips of the students' presentations and the panel discussions.
The ACM colleges nominated students to participate in the Symposium and the delegations from the campuses also included faculty members and administrators. The participants chose their topics, drawn from their off-campus study experiences – research projects, internships, cultural exchanges, and personal growth and insights.
The Symposium was organized into four panels of students. Each student presented for eight minutes and then the group participated in a panel discussion. A faculty member moderated the discussion, commenting on some of the broad themes brought out in the presentations, and the audience had an opportunity to ask questions of the individual presenters and the group as a whole.

Come to the Ridgefield Playhouse tomorrow night for their Summer Gala Event, featuring a dinner, live auction, and performance by Lyle Lovett and his acoustic group.
A singer, composer and actor, Lyle Lovett has broadened the definition of American music in a career that spans 14 albums. Coupled with his gift for storytelling, the Texas-based musician fuses elements of country, swing, jazz, folk, gospel, and blues in a convention-defying manner that breaks down barriers. Lovett has appeared in 13 feature films, and on stage and television. Among his many accolades, beside the four Grammy Awards, he was given the American Music Association's inaugural Trailblazer Award, and was recently named the Texas State Musician.
Garden & Gun recently called Lovett "one of America's most beloved singer/songwriters," and he was featured in the coveted "What I've Learned" column in the February 2012 issue of Esquire.
Lovett has been touring in support of Release Me since its release in February. The album was #1 for several weeks on the American charts. Produced by Nathaniel Kunkel and Lovett, Release Me represents the end of an era as it was his last record for Curb/Universal Music Group after being on the label his entire career.

So, I had the idea of making dairy-free eggnog. Then I thought better of it. It just doesn't feel right. But dairy-free coquito. I'm down with that.
For those of you who don't know, coquito is an intoxicating combination of coconut milk, coconut cream, heavy cream, and spices. It's basically a Puerto Rican version of eggnog and, in my opinion, even more delicious. Also more easily adapted to be dairy free. After all, most of the ingredients are coconut based.
So dairy free coquito it is. And it is so good. And not just for those of you on a strict dairy-free diet. Because this is made without the raw eggs usually called for in coquito and traditional nog, this is a great, festive drink to share with kids.
Just mix all of the ingredients in a blender and don't skimp on time. The longer you let the blender run, the silkier the texture. Also, you'll get a nice froth on top. Both of these are hallmarks of top notch nog.
And don't forget that you want to spike this with rum for the alcohol drinking grown ups in the house. Top it off thirsty mama!
Dairy-Free Coquito (Puerto Rican Eggnog)
(the non-alcoholic version can be shared with kids 12+ mos)*
Makes about 3 cups
2 cups light coconut milk
1/2 cup vanilla almond milk
1/2 cup cream of coconut, such as Coco Lopez
3 tablespoons chia gel**
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, preferably freshly grated
Pinch cloves
Splash vanilla extract (optional)
White rum, such as Bacardi (optional)
1. Combine coconut milk, almond milk, cream of coconut, chia gel, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a blender and blend for about 2 minutes. Taste and if you feel the almond milk hasn't lent enough vanilla flavor, add a splash of extract and blend for another 30 seconds. Separate out the non-alcoholic servings and add rum to the rest; blend for another 30 seconds. Serve over ice. Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
*Note: It's recommended to serve only breast milk and/or formula and small amounts of water to children under 12-months-old. Also, be sure to serve this in age appropriate portion sizes. A little bit of this sweet treat goes a long way with little ones.
**Note: The chia gel isn't necessary for taste, but is used here as an egg substitute to give the coquito a slightly thicker texture. You can skip it all together or use a flax meal egg substitute, if flax seeds are easier to come by. Add 1 tablespoon of ground flax seeds to 3 tablespoons of water, wisk and allow the mixture to sit for 5-10 minutes until thick. Add the entire mixture to the coquito instead of the chia gel.

|Classification of Claims, Punitive Damages, Unfair Discrimination
|Joe Michael Hyatt
At disclosure statement stage, Court determined that the Debtor's proposed separate classification of an unsecured claim based on a guaranty secured by non-debtor, third-party collateral was proper. Debtor also proposed to separately classify the punitive damages portion of a creditor's unsecured claim resulting in the subordination of the claim to other general unsecured creditors. The Debtor could not rely on § 510(c) to equitably subordinate the punitive damages claim, but could attempt to achieve subordination through separate classification and treatment, subject to the requirements for separate classification under § 1122 and subject to the prohibition against unfair discrimination found in § 1129(b)(1). This requires further evidence to be presented at confirmation.
|Chief Judge Robert H. Jacobvitz
|Discharge, Dismissal, Reconsideration
|Hari Simran Kaur Khalsa
Debtor sought to reopen her bankruptcy case, closed ten years before, so she could amend her schedules to delete all creditors. The Court determined that such a course of action was impermissible for a number of reasons, and further that it likely would not benefit the debtor in the way she intended. The motion was denied.
|Judge David T. Thuma
|Chapter 11, Dismissal, Dismissal or Conversion, Good Faith
|Melanie Milasinovich
U.S. Trustee filed motion to dismiss debtor's Chapter 11 case for cause. Based on the record and docket, the Court found that there was cause to dismiss the case with prejudice to refiling for 180 days. The cause included the inability to effectuate a plan, improper purpose for filing, and bad faith. The dismissal with prejudice was based upon debtor's willful failure to attend hearings and prosecute the case.
|Judge David T. Thuma
|Dismissal, Dismissal or Conversion, Good Faith
|Scott Walter Snyder
Single creditor of Debtor with relatively high income sought dismissal or conversion of Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. The Debtor alleged that he filed the case in good faith because, despite his high income, he could not both repay this single creditor and save for retirement. The court held that bad faith is an appropriate basis to dismiss a case, but found that it was inappropriate to dismiss this case based on a 16 factor analysis of good faith.
|Judge David T. Thuma
|Automatic Stay, Relief from Stay
|Sunland, Inc.
Business injury claimant moved for relief from stay to pursue pending jury trial action against the debtor in federal court; Although the movant was willing to limit its recovery to the insurance proceeds, it appeared that there was not enough insurance to pay all claims. This fact, coupled with the prospect that the trustee could monetize the insurance proceeds and distribute them pro rata to allowed claimants, prompted the court to deny stay relief.
|Judge David T. Thuma
|Administrative Claims, Appeals, Reconsideration, Sales of Assets
|Sunland, Inc.
One day after court entered order denying motion to approve auction sale because a late bidder appeared with a much higher price, lower bidder filed a motion to reconsider, for stay, and for other relief. The court denied the motion to reconsider, denied the motion to stay after reviewing the relevant factors, and denied other relief.
|Judge David T. Thuma
|Reaffirmation Agreements
|Janice L. Kirk
Debtor moved to reopen chapter 7 bankruptcy case and set aside the discharge order so she could enter into a reaffirmation agreement. The court denied the motion, holding that it did not have the authority to set aside the discharge order retroactively, and that without the retroactive effect, the court could not not grant debtor the requested relief.
|Judge David T. Thuma
|Motion to Sell, Sales of Assets
|Sunland, Inc.
Trustee sought court guidance whether he must proceed with selling assets to high bidder at auction, given a post-auction upset bid for a much higher price. The Court ruled that, given the circumstances of the matter, it would deny the trustee's motion to sell the assets to the auction bidder and reopen the auction so the upset bid could be considered.

Releases > Releases for businesses > Releases - eServices > Latest news from Finnish Customs > AREX declarations will be introduced by late 2009
AREX declarations will be introduced by late 2009
A decision has been made to postpone the implementation of the AREX system form processing security data on the entry and exit of goods. Customers may start to submit AREX declarations to Customs in late 2009 (November-December).
This change is based on the amendment on introducing a transitional period for the security data reform adopted by the EU at the end of February 2009, according to which the lodging of entry and exit summary declarations in the AREX system will not be mandatory until 1 January 2011. The possibility to lodge AREX declarations on a voluntary basis as of 1 July 2009 did not appear to awaken any great interest among the customers of Finnish Customs. Therefore Customs made a decision to postpone the implementation of the AREX system, in order to also ensure that the new export and transit systems will be successfully implemented 1 July 2009.

Music National Service Initiative
Contact Information
AmeriCorps National Direct FY 2012
Executive Summary
28 full-time AmeriCorps Members will infuse music instruction and service learning into under-resourced schools and afterschool programs in communities with high dropout rates in Austin, TX; Denver, CO; Los Angeles, CA; and the Bay Area, CA. Building on clear research and best practices from tested models, MusicianCorps Members will work with more than 6,700 students in elementary and secondary education to increase their academic engagement. In a privately funded pilot project, 7 out of 10 high school students indicated an increased desire to attend school as a result of working with full-time musician volunteers. With an investment of $372,400 from CNCS, this pilot can be taken to scale, leveraging an additional $1,082,070 match and the volunteer efforts of more than 15,000 youth and adults to build on the unique synergies created when music and service are combined. The resulting return on that investment is improved academic engagement of students from under-resourced schools and an increase in their commitment to serve their own communities, outcomes we cannot afford to pass up in the nation's current educational crisis.

Rembrandt's Self-Portraits and their Secrets
Date: Saturday, October 19, 2013
Time: 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Speaker: David Bomford, Director of Conservation, The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston
Type: Lecture
Rembrandt's self-portraits are famous in that they reflect one of the most sustained sequences of self-scrutiny in western art. But below the surface of some of these extraordinary paintings are unexpected changes and hidden clues to Rembrandt's practice and the workings of his studio. By looking at the results of technical examination, Bomford explores one of the most fundamental questions of all: the true meaning of authenticity and authorship in Rembrandt's art.
Theater | Free with admission. | Stickers for ensured seating are distributed in the Main Entrance gallery starting at 3:00 p.m. Members enjoy early seating between 3:30 and 3:45 p.m.; general admission seating begins at 3:45 p.m.

Whole Wheat Maple-Oatmeal Bread (recipe, pics, and step-by-step instructions)

It's interesting, I think, in that I post on this blog everyday, sometimes more than once, and write about all sorts of things–mostly things related to bicycling, cooking, living simply, and things that inspire me–but still the most common reason people visit this blog is for Ezekiel Bread Recipes. Well, fellow whole grain bakers, I'm glad that's how you found your way here (through Googling "Ezekiel Bread Recipe," no doubt), but I hope you stick around for a while, maybe you'll find a few things interesting. So this one is for you, my whole wheat baker friends….maple-oatmeal bread (which is a variation of honey-oatmeal with yogurt). For an Ezekiel Bread Recipe, click here. To read about my views and interpretation of Ezekiel Bread, click here.
Place two bowls side-by-side. In one, start an autolyse with the bulk of the flour, oatmeal, and some water. In the other, start a preferment (biga) with the remainder of the flour, water, and a portion of the yeast. Allow these mixtures to rest and ferment for at least an hour but up to 12 hours.
Next you'll combine the two mixtures together, and add the maple syrup, olive oil, salt, and remaining yeast. Knead the dough until it passes the windowpane test.
Transfer the dough to a bowl or dough bucket, and allow it to rise, double in size, and ferment for about an hour. Push the dough down and allow it to rise again.
Cut the dough into two or three pieces, shape them into loaves, roll them in oats, and place them in loaf pans. Allow the bread to rise for about an hour, and bake them in a pre-heated oven. Simple and delicious. (a recipe is below).
Separatethe ingredients into two bowls using this ratio: In one bowl combine4 cups of flour, two cups of oatmeal, the wheat gluten, and 2 ½ cupsof water; stir until just combined. In the second bowl combine theremaining 2 cups of flour, 1 tablespoon of yeast, and 1 cup of water;stir until just combined. Cover the bowls and allow the ingredientsto rest and begin fermenting for at least an hour, but up to 12. Then combine the contents of bowl bowls into the bowl of an uprightmixer fitted with a dough hook. Add the remaining tablespoon ofyeast, along with the olive oil, maple syrup, and salt. Knead thedough on medium speed for about 8 minutes, then cover and allow torise for one hour. Transfer the dough to a work surface, cut it intotwo or pieces, gently shape it into loaves. Dust the counter withextra oatmeal and roll the loaves in it, gently pressing oatmeal intothe surface of the raw dough. Place the loaves into oiled loaf pans,cover with plastic wrap, and allow to rise for 45 minutes. Preheat anoven to 425F. Bake the bread for about 30 minutes, or until goldenbrown and sounds hollow when tapped on. Remove the bread from theirpans and allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

If you don't have pre-packaged shredded carrots, wash a few large carrots and use a grater to shred them.
Place two or three lettuce leaves on each salad plate. Put half a cup of shredded carrots in the middle of each lettuce bed. Arrange the carrots into nest shapes.
Put the cream cheese in the mixing bowl. Add two drops of blue food coloring and mix until the color is consistent. (Note: This last step is optional.) Scoop one-half teaspoonful of blue cream cheese and roll it between your palms to form an egg shape. Place three eggs in each nest, drizzle the "nest" with your favorite salad dressing, and enjoy lunch with your hungry fledgling!
