Q&A: How not to exclude others when you speak a minority language with your child?
I am from Hungary and live in the UK with my British husband. At home we speak English, as my husband doesn't speak much Hungarian. We have a 3-month-old baby, with whom I have been talking in Hungarian when it is just the two of us, or if we are in the company of other Hungarian speakers.
When my husband is with us I have been finding it hard to speak to our daughter in Hungarian since my husband wouldn't understand us. It feels strange, as if we are 'excluding him', and also not very practical when I need him to also understand what I am saying to our baby.
We have read some of the previous Q&As on your site and found them extremely helpful! My husband is very keen to improve his Hungarian and he is kind of learning with our daughter now. He was worried that he shouldn't practice with her, but having seen that you didn't think it was a problem for someone to speak to their baby in a language they are not proficient in, he now reads to our daughter from Hungarian books, and sometimes we speak in Hungarian when it is the three of us.
At the moment, when my husband arrives home (I am the one on maternity leave) I switch to English and we continue playing using English when it is the three of us. But at times Hungarian comes much more naturally when I want to say something to our daughter, to comfort her or to encourage her for instance. Sometimes I repeat things in both languages, so my husband can also follow. Overall, it's quite random and without a proper strategy, I worry this is going to get increasingly confusing to our daughter (and to us also). Can this randomness confuse our baby? If so, what would you recommend so I could be a bit more deliberate in which language I choose to use when?
With others, I feel more of a social pressure to use English. I feel rude to speak in Hungarian when we are with those who cannot understand. Especially so in front of my parents-in-law who already believe that our daughter should not hear any other language apart from English in the first six months of her life, and suggested I only 'gently' introduce my mother tongue after that time, through songs, etc – well obviously I ignored this in practice. But I do feel awkward switching to English when others are around. How would you manage these situations?
I suppose my biggest challenge is knowing what language to use with my baby when we are with my husband or friends or family who are non-Hungarian speakers – and having some kind of a consistent system for this – is it necessary to have consistency do you think?
Any tips, advice, resources would be really helpful!
Thank you so much for your support in advance!
All the best,
Dear Nora
Congratulations on becoming a family of three! Thank you for your question and the update you sent – I have incorporated it in the question above.
Which language to speak when is a dilemma most bilingual parents deal with at some point, certainly most minority language parents. The main concern is how to combine the need (and want) to speak your language with your child without making others feel that they are being left out.
I am pleased to hear that your husband is so supportive of you speaking Hungarian with your child – and excited to know that he wants to improve his own Hungarian-skills. I cannot emphasise enough how important it is that the majority language parent fully backs the idea of raising a bilingual child.
You are right, it is fine that your English-speaking husband reads to your daughter in Hungarian. You are your daughter's Hungarian role model and she will not pick up any accent or mistakes from your husband. He is helping you increase the exposure to Hungarian by participating as best as he can. In addition, the more Hungarian he learns, the more comfortable you will feel to stick to Hungarian with your daughter when the three of you are together.
The biggest "threat" to a minority language in a family, is if everyone readily switches to the majority language. Sooner than you know it, your daughter will be fluent in English and the challenge will be to maintain her Hungarian. To prepare for this phase my recommendation would be to stick to Hungarian as much as possible to establish a firm routine between the two of you to always speak your mother tongue.
I know you are very aware of making sure your husband does not feel excluded, which is important, but do discuss this with him. In my experience, in many families it is in fact the minority language parent who feels more uncomfortable about the situation, while the other parent, who may not understand everything that is being said, is more relaxed about it. Agree that he should ask every time he wants to know the specifics and you will repeat in English when you feel it is needed or when he asks. Also, keep in mind that the more Hungarian he hears, the quicker he will learn.
Then we come to the trickiest part of the equation – your parents-in-law. I am happy to hear that you ignored the advice not to speak Hungarian to your baby during the first six months and then only gradually introduce it, because it is not correct and the opposite is the right way to go. Children all over the world are learning two languages simultaneously and are not getting confused! I presume that as grandparents your parents-in-law might have been worried that they will not be able to communicate with their grandchild and wanted to make sure that she learnt English first. While I understand their worry, and acknowledge that it comes from a place of love for your child, their advice is not based on any researched facts and should not be followed.
If possible, the best thing to do is to openly discuss the situation with your parents-in-law and others that you come in regular contact with – ask you husband for help with this. Explain to them why it is important that you speak as much Hungarian as possible with your daughter and why you are trying to stick to Hungarian only. Had the situation been the reverse, i.e. you would be living in Hungary, the same would have applied to English and your husband. (It might be easier for others to understand the situation if they think of it that way.) I know that it is not possible to have this kind of discussions with everyone, but you will know your family and friends best.
There may still be situations where you find it too uncomfortable to speak Hungarian, but please be assured that this will not confuse your daughter. She learns that as a bilingual person you switch between languages depending on who is in your company. While the need for consistency is indeed higher the less exposure there is to a language, this should not become a rigid rule that affects our relationships to our family and friends. We should never forget that language is about communication and understanding each other, not about sticking to the rules at any cost.
Wishing you a successful bilingual family journey!
Kind regards
Rita RosenbackRita is an author, Family Language Coach, blogger and speaker, who was born into a bilingual family on the Swedish-speaking west coast of Finland. After studying languages in Finland and Germany she worked as a university teacher, translator, interpreter and manager of multinational teams. Rita is now a full-time writer and coach and has been living in the U.K. since 1998. Rita is the mother of two grown-up multilingual daughters, who are the inspiration for her book: "Bringing up a Bilingual Child", an easy-to-read guide for parents, where she navigates the reader across the "Seven Cs of Multilingual Parenting: Communication, Confidence, Commitment, Consistency, Creativity, Culture and Celebration". Currently English and Swedish are Rita's main languages, but she instantly switches to Finnish or German or to her Finland-Swedish dialect when the opportunity presents itself (and when push comes to shove, she can communicate in a very basic Punjabi). Rita is the creator and driving force of this website, and she gives talks and holds workshops for parents and teachers on the topic of bilingual children. She also coaches families on how to make the most of their languages and raise their children to become confident speakers of the chosen languages.
One Response to "Q&A: How not to exclude others when you speak a minority language with your child?"
As a British dad with a Hungarian wife, I agree with your approach and with Rita's advice. We've lived and brought up our boys in England and Hungary. Hungarian and English are very different languages, even phonetically, so its a good idea to make sure that your daughter can recognise sounds and letters in both languages by her early school years.early as possible. Hungarian singing games and nursery rhymes are excellent ways of introducing these pre-school. English will very quickly become her dominant language, but she will not forget the sounds and words learnt from you. Extended visits to Hungary will be good for 'immersing' her in the language in its natural context, but even short visits by Hungarian friends and family will be worth their weight in gold. My son is 13 having moved back here aged 8 in 2011. He quickly improved his speaking skills in school, and, having already learnt to read and write in English, was soon recognising words and sentences in Hungarian.

The word 'biosecurity' has crept into our language, and whilst it is quite a technical word, it has now embedded itself in the way people work. This blog aims to highlight the breadth of the risks and problems by a cross section of animals and plants found on our waterways
The Oxford English Dictionary defines it as the "protection against the incursion or escape of potentially harmful or undesirable organisms, esp. pathogens". The word was first coined in 1973 and was mainly used in the prevention of animal diseases. However it is now used in its much wider sense to manage risks of anything from entering or leaving a given location.
We often think about the exotic, invasive non-native species which are undoubtedly a high risk, but equally native endemic species can cause us problems. You'll have hopefully noticed that the UK is an island, and as such there are species from around the world which our flora and fauna have never been in contact with. They don't have natural defences to protect themselves or compete with them.
It's important to point out that not all non-native species are bad, many are important crops (wheat, potatoes, etc…) or beautiful ornamental garden plants, but it's the small proportion which are invasive and quickly become uncontrollable.
Since this is a fisheries blog, we'll focus on aquatic species and the problems that they can cause:
Internationally the threat of non-native species is established through the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the EU has produced the Invasive Alien Species Regulation (EC 1143/2014) which came into force on 1 January 2015. The UK provided a leading role in the writing and preparation of these regulations. Even though the UK is in the process of Brexit we are still signed up to these regulations, which is based around the GB Strategy.
We have the Great Britain Invasive Species Non-Native Species Strategy (GBNNSS, 2015), which was built on the back of the original 2008 strategy.
The strategy provides a framework for roles & responsibilities, coordination, awareness raising, reducing & preventing new introductions, contingency response plans, strategic action and overview, monitoring and identify knowledge gaps and priority areas. However on a day-to-day basis we are principally concerned with:
Prevention is the most important, but if something should come in then a rapid response is essential. It is usually easier and cost beneficial to control invasive species when they first appear, rather than when they are established. For example, the Environment Agency has spent less than £50,000 on controlling Creeping water primrose, whereas the estimated cost of controlling it when established is £250 million!
The salmon fluke (Gyrodactylus salaris) is a species that we want to keep out of the UK. A Scottish Government report estimated the potential Net Economic Value loss to Scotland of the introduction of Gyrodactylus salaris at £633 million, with severe consequences for rural communities.
Legislation is an important tool, but it depends a lot on how it is enforced and how it is written. Japanese knotweed has been listed in the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) for a very long time and it hasn't halted its spread across the UK! With this in mind a twin-track approach with education and awareness raising is needed.
There is a large amount of invasive non-native species legislation scattered around different Acts, available in this comprehensive list.
Ultimately everyone can contribute to good biosecurity and it's in everyone's interest to do so.
Check Clean Dry – This campaign sets out simple instructions that can help prevent the accidental transfer of non-native species.
Report sightings – There are now a number of mobile phone apps that you can download; the most useful to anglers are:
Anglers – Thoroughly dry your tackle in the sun, the UV will kill off any bugs and viruses. Use the dip tanks on fisheries where supplied and ask when the disinfectant was last topped up.
Boaters and canoeists – Check, Clean, Dry before moving to another water. Inspect your craft, jet wash it with hot water (the thermal shock will kill most pathogens and wash off plant fragments).
Fish diseases - do not re-home ornamental fish in park lakes, rivers or canals. A lot of ornamental fish are brought in from abroad where they are reared in water where non-UK fish diseases are prevalent. Whilst this is acceptable level of risk for the amateur aquarist, they mustn't be allowed to be introduced into the wild where our native and naïve fish will succumb to these new diseases.
Plants – Be Plant Wise, don't throw unwanted plants out into the wild, compost them instead. Most plants that do well in the aquatics trade do well because they grow quickly and have a strong appearance. Unfortunately these traits mean that they'll do well in the wild.
The team undertake a diverse range of work including looking after the Trust's £40 million worth of fish stocks, managing agreements with over 250 different angling clubs and helping more people, especially youngsters, take up angling on the canal. Follow this blog to keep updated with the thoughts and work of the team.See more blogs from this author

If a visitor to my site clicks on one of my eBay links and registers, it shows up in my account as a "Registration." I was under the impression that eBay was supposed to be able to track when that account became an "Active Registration" and credit me for it.
So, if the visitor registers with my cookie, but then bids with another eBay cookie on their computer, who gets the registration? Me, since they registered through my site, or the site with the last cookie, even though they weren't responsible for the registration, or does it just never become an "Active Registration?"
It seems to me there are way too many ways for eBay to get out of paying commissions, now. Plus, with their acceptance of incentive sites and their apparent love for sites that force cookies on unsuspecting surfers, it seems like it's going to be more difficult to do much with them.
Unless you're Ebates.

Over the past week or so I've had several nickels reversed, so I assume it has something to do with their new policy. Frankly, I like the old system a whole lot better. They should have it written in stone (or their TOS) exactly what a publisher has to do to get credited with an active registration. The current system basically lets them decide which cookie they like more (or choose neither). If there was a problem with cheating then BOOT THE CHEATERS!

I used to get registrations (at $5 each) now and then, and now I never get any. None. Zero. This has been going on for months. I find it quite weird and suspicious. If I could find another good auction affiliate program, I'd switch. As it is, I've stopped using eBay affiliate banners on my site.
February 18th, 2004, 05:27 AM #6
I promote ebay through BeFree and virtually never had any reversals, something to do with how BeFree report which means that once you've been credited it's 99%+ going to stick.
However... this last week for the first time I've been getting reversals that are several days after being credited, time for me too reassess ebay. At this rate they'll end up with a single mega affilite who they send a single email to telling them how many millions their single mega affiliate made last month.

One thing I;ve just noticed is that the mediaplex cookie is no longer deposited during a 302 redirect (like the qksrv.net and commission-junction.com cookies are).
the mediaplex.com part of the transaction is now a fully served-up (200) HTML page with a javascript redirect and meta refresh for those not running javascript.
Not sure what effect (if any) this will have on the process overall. SE's are going to treat things differently?

This is from what I posted in the other thread:
The response I got from CJ was that because eBay runs programs on so many different networks, that it's one of those other cookies that is being used. So it looks like they initially credit everyone who had their hand in the cookie jar and then reverse all but the last one in, who was lucky (or tricky) enough to get the cookie to stick. Basically, I was told that it's network vs. network and not CJ affiliate vs. CJ affiliate. If this is true, assuming that they only make money when we do, then CJ is losing money... so why don't they care?
Word from CJ:
If someone registers through you but then bids through someone else you will get credit for the active registration (the $5) but they will get credit for the bid ($0.05).
Let me just clarify that it is a network vs. network thing and not CJ affiliate vs. CJ affiliate. The issue with integrating one cookie is that this would take a combined effort of all the companies involved re-desiging their tracking systems to accomodate the situation. Frankly, it just makes mnore sense to allow them to do reversals like everyone else in a similar situation.

I know what I see and what I've seen in the last week is I haven't made a penny from ebay, every time I get a registration an old one dies.
My efforts even in looking at stats are best spent elsewhere.

Well, I'll believe it when I see it! The first time I see a registration go to active registration without a corresponding bid, and then doesn't get reversed, I'll believe it!
Until then, I think eBay has a seriously messed up program that discriminates as to who receives credit for bids/BINs and registrations. This attitude of credit everyone, then reverse all except for one is a joke!
eBay's new policy of allowing incentive sites in, as well as their negligent attitude of allowing all to set cookies whether the end user clicks on a link or not will backfire on them. People will get sick of this behavior, and it will be a reflection on eBay, because they won't know which site is doing the dirty deed, they'll .
eBay needs to get its ethics, values, and morals together and do what's right by running a clean, honest program. THEY ARE NOT DOING THAT RIGHT NOW!

Amen to that observation Andy. eBay thinks they've grown to a point they can treat affiliates like cannon fodder and follow Amazon into a Gestapo run indy program.

I see you guys are trying to figure out why you aren't getting conversions on ebay.
Call a spade a spade.
CJ & Ebay are actively stealing.
Lets say you send a user to the home page.
You can only get a reg credit for a new user.
Hmmm, what would a new user click on?
Maybe, "Welcome new users" ?
Maybe, "Live Help"?
Are those ebay links?
They are mediaplex redirects that take OUR commissions.
You send someone new to ebay.
They click on "Welcome new users" (CJ (mediaplex) sets a cookie to lock in the commission.)
They get redirected to ebay's help page.
They register.
You get squat.
Never left the site.
Just clicked "help"
You lose.
Thanks CJ!!!! Can't wait to see your spin on this one.
75% of the home page links will STEAL our visitors because they clicked their link ON ebay that redirects them BACK to ebay AFTER you sent them there.
Don't stop there. Go to
40% of the page links to CJ.
The whole Ebay site is a MINEFIELD of theft by CJ and Doubleclick.
How many of you believe that if you send a user to a site and the user performs an action/sale on that site you get paid?
Well not if they click on "Help" while they are there.
Is what you signed up for?
You want action?
Hit them where it hurts.
Their pocketbook.
Lack of integrity (Stealing from "partners", being deceptive and other "hand in the cookie jar" tricks.) in upper management of public companies killed a lot of stocks over the last 2 years.
If you really want to see this type of practice end, get together and post an educational AND FACTUAL account of this dishonest/deceptive behaviour on the STOCK MARKET BOARDS as well as here. Stock holders will most likely believe if ebay/valueclick will steal from the hands that feed them they will bite off the hands of stock holders.
Also send it to 100 financial reporters and analysts. One of them may have a slow news day or want to use it as ammo to defend a negative view they have against either company (or doubleclick who also has a hand in and is not the darling of the market going back to privacy issues)
All three are public.
You are being told about the "Big Picture"
The value of the stock.
That's the "Big Picture"
Will CJ formally declare that the "SUPER AFFILIATE" has NO financial, corporate or any other formal or informal relationship with CJ other than the standard affiliate operating agreement?
Just curious.

I emailed support to ask the question as to how this affiliate program can allow eBay to skirt commissions to CJ members by posting links for other affiliate programs on its own site. This would seem to be a very bad-faith situation, since we are working hard to drive the traffic to their site, and they are working very hard to not pay us for it. We'll see what they say.

Which links on books.ebay.com link back to CJ?
February 23rd, 2004, 04:46 AM #16
I noticed when I was testing Norton that quite a few navigational links at eBay didn't show up with the Ad Blocker turned on. I thought it was rather odd that regular links used for navigation would be served by Mediaplex.
I wonder why that is? Why would it be necessary for eBay to have links on its site, going to other sections of its site, fed by an ad server? If this is why our affiliate CJ cookies are being overwritten, I'd say that's out and out fraud! Once the visitor arrives at eBay from an affiliate link, that's it! There should not be anything on eBay that would deposit a new link on that user's computer!
Call the Exterminators! We've Got PARASITES!

Has anyone tested those ads to see if they really do overwrite cookies? Isn't it possible that they are using mediaplex just to manage their ads, without having any effect on the cookies?

When I go to mail.com, ebay's homepage pops up.
Does this nullify our referal? Is this what ebay is talking abot when it says it has to reverse my commissions?
I refer people to specific things they want to buy. But if they bookmark the product page, check their mail, and then go back to ebay, is ebay and CJ saying that mail.com (or their ad server) really deserves the commission?

Yes, that's exactly the case. An affiliate is running eBay popunder on some of the ad networks such as Burst and FastClick. If someone gets one of those popunders between when he clicks on your link and when he bids, you do not get the commission.
I don't think the mail.com is much of a threat to take away "immediate action" type bids -- where someone clicks on your link, browses eBay, then bids. The more insidious approach will be when picture hosting companies figure out that they can do this too (if they're not already doing it), so when someone clicks on one of those "click this link to see the bigger picture", the popunder will show up, and your commission gets nullified.
An even worse approach would be to plant code in your auction that sets the cookie, either by a popunder or a link.
And by far, the most insidious is when eBay itself plants navigation links on its site that nullify your cookie. That's what TripAssoc2 is talking about.

I think that's great for ebay sellers if they can set a cookie and earn extra cash by popping ebay on ebay.
That is what this program is all about now.
You could peddle an ebook or one of those stupid cell phone boosters for 5 cents (Buy-It-Now) and actually earn quite a bit of cash (and ebay is happy because they get new 'users'). It is not a bad day's work, and I could see millions of folks taking ebay up on its offer.
And by the way, things are really looking up; their epc has surged to 46 cents.

Ralph, have you tested this? I really think it's possible for these to be ads served without any effect on affiliate cookies. I'm trying to test it now, but I won't know until reversals for today hit, which I guess will be later this week.

I'd like to hear some more views on this subject. Is this, in fact, what is happening on the ebay site itself? Are cookies being overwritten when someone clicks on what seem to be navigational links? I invite the resident gurus to weigh in on this.

I got a message back from CJ on this subject. Here's a quote:
"The adfarm links are actually not referral links. eBay uses those for their own
internal stats, you will even notice that when someone clicks one of our links for
eBay they are routed through adfarm."
So it appears as though this was a false alarm, those links that appear to be affiliate links are not. At least not according to eBay.

The Hidden Heart Disease Truth:
Chances are you have been taught that high cholesterol is the cause of heart disease. This has been the modern vernacular since Ancel Keys came out with his "lipid hypothesis" theories in the 1950's. This hypothesis linked elevated dietary saturated fat and cholesterol to increased risk of heart disease. In this article, you will discover 11 steps to beat heart disease naturally.
21st century science is giving us a much greater understanding of cholesterol's role in atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. This new understanding is that cholesterol is more of an innocent victim than a harmful contributer of this disease (1, 2, 3).
Lipoproteins and Inflammation:
The lipid particles that transport cholesterol in circulation are called lipoproteins. Within this classification, you have low-density lipoproteins (LDL), high density lipoproteins (HDL) and very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL). Contained within these lipoproteins are one or more proteins, called apolipoproteins, which act as molecular "signals" to facilitate the movement of lipid-filled lipoproteins throughout the body.
Cholesterol does not cause heart disease, however, oxidized cholesterol does cause major problems within the body. When inflammatory pathways are elevated, cholesterol molecules are oxidized, triglycerides are formed & blood vessel walls damaged (4, 5).
The Truth About LDL:
LDL has always been called the 'bad cholesterol" because it is associated with arterial plaque. But it actually performs many key features including transporting important fat soluble nutrients such as vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin D and coQ10 to the cells of the body. Current science is demonstrating that the demonization of all LDL particles has been a big mistake.
LDL particles help to carry fat-soluble antioxidants, like CoQ10, vitamin E, and carotenoids, which protect the transported lipids from oxidative damage. This is why vitamin E and CoQ10 have performed so well in cardiovascular studies – because they prevent the oxidative modification of LDL particles, which in turn protects the blood vessel lining from damage.
Increasing evidence has revealed that the concentration and size of the LDL particles more powerfully relates to the degree of atherosclerosis progression than the concentration contained within all the LDL particles (6, 7, 8).
Pattern A LipoProtein Profile:
Two main classifications of LDL particles exist. These are individually called Pattern A and Pattern B lipoproteins. Pattern A are classified as large and buoyant particles that contain more fat and anti-oxidants than their Pattern B counterparts. Pattern B lipoproteins are small and dense and carry less anti-oxidant protection.
Large buoyant LDL particles carry a high volume of the antioxidant Vitamin E, which helps to fend off free radicals. They pose only a very small chance of being oxidized while traveling through the circulatory system (9).
Pattern A Lab Findings:
Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL): Can be low-normal-high
High Density Lipoprotein (HDL): Normal
Triglycerides (TG): Normal
Regardless of where the LDL value is this is a very healthy blood lipid panel. The TG/HDL ratio is the key. If the TG/HDL ratio is greater than 2 than there is a strong likelihood that there is a large population of small dense LDL particles. A TG/HDL ratio closer to 1 is what typically occurs with a smaller population of small dense LDL particles.
Pattern B LipoProtein Profile:
Pattern B lipoproteins are considered small, dense LDL particles. These particles carry less fat-soluble antioxidants such as Vitamin E. This increases the likelihood of oxidation by free radicals and the development of atherosclerotic plaque (10, 11).
One of the major problems with these small dense particles has to do with their relationship with the inner lining of the blood vessels called the endothelium. Due to the small particle size, these pattern A LDL particles pose a major threat of slipping into the endothelial wall where they are trapped. This then causes oxidation and significant endothelial damage.
Pattern B Lab Findings:
LDL: Can be low-normal-high
HDL: Low
Triglycerides: High
Regardless of where the LDL value is this is a very dangerous blood lipid panel. High TG and Low LDL is the common laboratory finding on a basic lipid panel. You can map out all of your LDL and HDL variants with a Vertical Auto Profile or VAP test.
This test identifies twice as many people at risk than routine cholesterol tests, including those with inherited risk factors who often develop premature heart disease.
Like routine tests, the VAP Test measures total cholesterol, HDL ("good" cholesterol), LDL ("bad" cholesterol), and triglycerides. But the VAP Test also measures cholesterol subclasses that play important roles in the development of heart disease (12).
This additional information allows your doctor to improve the detection of heart disease risk from about 40% to 90% and provides a foundation for patient-specific treatment plans. We offer the VAP test along with our entire cardiovascular biomarker analysis in the CardioPower test.
What Causes Pattern B Findings:
From a nutritional perspective, there are several major causes:
1. Too Many Fats that Kill: Trans-fats common to processed foods and high omega 6 fats (vegetable oils and grain-fed meat) cause a rampant increase in prostaglandin E2 and inflammatory mediators that cause massive amounts of free radicals and tissue damage (13, 14).
2. Not Enough Fats that Heal: Saturated fats common to coconut oil & grass-fed animal products have been shown to increase HDL and enhance Pattern A lipoprotein function (15, 16). Additionally, good fats such as EPA/DHA within fish/krill oil and Omega 9 fats common to olive oil, avocados, and almonds play a significant role in lipoprotein function.
3. Sugar, Grains & Corn Syrup:
Sugar: Causes a very quick increase in blood sugar. When blood sugar rises qucikly; the pancreas pumps out massive amounts of insulin very quickly. High circulating insulin increases triglyceride and cholesterol formation, while additionally promoting inflammatory pathways (17, 18).
Grains: Cause a slower release of sugar into the blood stream. This causes a slower but more prolonged increase in insulin. The longer insulin remains elevated in our bloodstream, the longer our bodies "fat production and storage" pathways will be at work.
High Fructose Corn Syrup: (HFCS):
Immediately stimulates lipogenesis (fat generation) by turning into activated glycerol (G-3-P), which provides the backbone for Triglycerides: 1 Glycerol + 3 Free Fatty Acids.
Additionally, the fatty acids created during fructose metabolism accumulate as fat droplets in your liver and skeletal muscle tissues, causing insulin resistance and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Insulin resistance progresses to metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes (19, 20, 21).
The metabolism of fructose by your liver creates a long list of waste products, toxins, and free radicals. These free radicals steal anti-oxidants from our system and damage tissues in a process called glycation.
Additionally, fructose metabolism creates large amount of uric acid, which inhibits endothelial nitric oxide synthase, inhibiting nitric oxide production and driving up blood pressure (22, 23). High uric acid is also the cause of gout.
11 Steps to Beating Heart Disease:
Here are the best action steps to get started with on your journey to prevent and/or beat heart disease. You should always consult with your physician before stopping or changing medications or taking on new health strategies.
Additionally, you should be working with a functional health practitioner to help guide you through these strategies. This is not an exhaustive list and there are other natural therapeutic strategies that I and functional health practitioners will utilize to help individuals with heart disease.
1) Change Your Diet: Follow an Anti-Inflammatory nutrition plan here
2) Reduce Stress: Find ways to reduce stressful activities and enjoy more peace and calm. Learn to thrive under stress by reading this article here
3) Improve Your Sleep: Sleeping a high quality 8-9 hours each night is key to healing and improving blood flow. Follow the steps in this article to improve your sleep.
4) Use a High Quality Bone Broth Protein: This will provide collagen protein to help keep the blood vessels strong and working effectively. Without adequate collagen, the blood vessels become weak, scarred and are unable to function well.
5) Include Magnesium & B Vitamin Rich Foods: Magnesium and B vitamins help to relax blood vessel walls. The best magnesium rich foods include dark green leafy veggies, grass-fed dairy, raw cacao and pumpkin seeds. You can also do Epsom salt baths to boost your magnesium levels.
6) Supplement With Omega 3's: Omega 3 fatty acids and in particular the long chain variety EPA and DHA are critical for stabilizing blood sugar, lowering triglycerides and improving lipoprotein characteristics. Consume grass-fed meat, grass-fed butter, wild-caught fish and spirulina to get it in your diet.
It is also advisable to supplement with 2-5 grams daily of EPA/DHA along with 200 mg of GLA. Clinically, I use ProEFA to boost up omega 3's.
7) Focus on Deep Breathing: Improving your posture, seeing a high quality chiropractor and optimizing your breathing patterns is highly recommended. Follow these tips here to improve your breathing patterns.
8) Ground Your Body: In our society we are surrounded by toxic electromagnetic frequency's (EMF's). By going outside daily and walking barefoot on grass, dirt or sand you absorb natural EMF's from the ground that balance your electrical rhythms. Follow the steps in this article here.
9) Juice Your Veggies: Juicing is one of the best ways to get high quality anti-oxidants and powerful phytonutrients into your system. Here is my article on Best Juicing strategies.
10) Use Anti-Oxidant Rich Herbs: Add turmeric, ginger, oregano, garlic, basil, thyme and rosemary to as many dishes as possible and drink organic herbal teas on a regular basis.
11) Improve Your Mitochondria: The mitochondria are the energy powerhouses of every cell. When someone has heart disease or an abundance of small-dense lipoproteins and triglycerides they have dysfunctional activity going on in the mitochondria.
Support your body with clinical doses of CoQ10, L-carnitine, N-acetyl cysteine and Lipoic acid. The supplement I use with my cardiovascular patients is Brain Supercharge which has the clinically effective dosages of each of these key nutrients and more.

Fluffy Quinoa Sweet Potato Patties With An Avocado Coconut Milk Dip (Recipe)
That's right I said fried. Sometimes it's worth it! And as long as it's fried in coconut oil, it's oh so healthy and super easy to make! (Of course, it is still a fried treat, so enjoy in moderation!) Try it out today:
- 1/2 cup of uncooked organic sprouted quinoa, rinsed
- 1 sweet potato, cubed
- 4 green onions sliced
- 1 handful of baby spinach, kale, boc choy or swiss chard finely chopped
- 1/4 cup of chopped oregano
- 1/4 cup chopped basil
- 2 pinches of red pepper flakes
- Coconut Oil 1 tsp (optional)
- black pepper
- salt
- 1 avocado, mashed
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 1 tbsp. chopped oregano
- 1/4 tsp. onion powder
- 1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
- Salt to taste
- In a small bowl, prepare avocado dip combining all ingredients. Set aside.
- Add your quinoa to a saucepan. Cover with 1 cup of water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer on low covered. As soon as water is absorbed, turn off heat, leave the lid off this will keep more moisture in the quinoa making it a bit sticky. You do not want your quinoa to be soft and fluffy you want it to be sticky that way the balls stay together.
- At the same time steam one whole, peeled and cubed sweet potato. Don't overcook or it will turn to mush in the recipe. Let cool.
- Add the sweet potatoes to the quinoa along with the spinach, green onion, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Using a wooden spoon thoroughly combine ingredients. If you find that it is not binding well add 1 tsp of coconut oil.
- Roll into equal size balls. If you make them too large they will fall apart during the cooking process.
- Put coconut oil in a deep frying pan and heat up on medium heat. Once it's good and hot place quinoa balls in pan. Let them get golden brown before flipping. If you try and flip early they could fall apart.
- You are going to love this dish!

Jack Hale to run the back straight in the 4x100m to possibly line up against Usain Bolt, with Fabrice Lapierre and Michelle Jenneke also coming into the team.
A chance Hale will go head-to head with Asafa Powell in the 100m. Sprinting conditions are looking good, and Powell would be looking for a sub-10 second clocking if he lines up.
And some changes to the Aussie line up, with Ryan Gregson running the Elimination Mile, Alex Hartmann lining up in the 4x400m and with Genevieve LaCaze being rested, Linden Hall running the 3 minute challenge and Heidi See running the Elimination Mile.

One of the most well received elements of the new Nitro Athletics concept was the Elimination Mile, where the last competitor is eliminated after each lap. (more…)
He's contracted to run a minimum of one event each night, with possibilities of 60m, 100m, 150m and relays to choose from.
The Australian junior 100m record holder is in awe of Bolt, and is focusing on the 2018 Commonwealth Games over this year's World Championships. (more…)
Carter ran the opening leg of the 4x100m relay in Beijing, but tested positive for methylhexamine when his doping sample was re-analysed.
Four Australians – Nina Kennedy, Naa Anang, Brittany McGowan and Matthew Ramsden – form part of the line up.
The world's fastest man is set to become a shareholder if Nitro Athletics goes global.
After a frantic few months where AA hired a team of consultants to try to find the cash to lure Bolt — he comes with a $1 million-plus price tag — a deal was finally signed off on the night before Friday's official launch.
Six teams of 24 athletes are set to participate in the Nitro Athletics series, which will place on Saturday 4, Thursday 9 and a final on Saturday 11 February 2017.
Nitro Athletics will not just feature traditional events – and will include a mix of power, endurance, technique and teamwork disciplines across sprints, distance, field and para-athletics events. Mixed events and relays will also feature in the Nitro program as team's battle for points and the Nitro Athletics Melbourne crown.
Night one and the final of Nitro Athletics Melbourne will feature the same program with the Thursday night program offering a selection of alternative events.
Athletics Australia are scrambling to pull together the new Nitro series in time but securing Usain Bolt is the first and most important signing.
The series will be held at Lakeside Stadium between 4 and 11 February 2017.
The 9-time Olympic gold medallist is set to pocket $1m to compete in the new Nitro Athletics series.
Bolt will launch the series on Friday in Melbourne.

Drunk Moon Photobombs Earth's SelfiePosted: August 6, 2015 Filed under: Foolishness | Tags: comedy, DSCOVR, humor, moon in earth selfie, nasa, postaweek, selfies 6 Comments
The last really good portrait of earth was taken from the moon back in the 1970's.
Perhaps you think that the 1970's were a long time ago. I don't happen to agree. As you know, the standard method of deciding if something was a long time ago is if I remember it. Whether you remember an event doesn't matter, I am the standard by which "a long time ago" is measured. I remember photos being taken from the moon so that was a pretty recent happening.
And despite that knowledge, NASA decided that we needed a newer photo of our planet. Unfortunately, we don't currently have a photographer on the moon to compose the picture. This was inconvenient, but not discouraging to the engineers at the space agency. Read the rest of this entry »
Dear Home Depot, Nice Job On Those InstructionsPosted: July 20, 2015 Filed under: Foolishness | Tags: bad direction, comedy, Home Depot, home improvement, humor, light fixture, postaweek, SKU 555-004 2 Comments
Dear Home Depot,
You haven't asked, but I'm going to go on and just tell you this. I'm a smart guy. How smart? Well, certainly not rocket scientist smart…but I'm bright. I did just fine in school. Somewhere, there's a sheepskin with my name on it. I'm even smart enough to know that a sheepskin isn't really skin from a sheep.
Do you know who else is really bright? My wife. She has two degrees, so she understands better than I do that a sheepskin is just an expression for a diploma.
We're bright people, bright enough to know that we don't know everything. For instance, we don't understand accounting. Nor do we get why Kanye West fascinates some folks. The average person is repulsed by an impolite hack, but Mr. West has become wealthy because he is rude and lacks talent. It defies explanation.
But Enough About Us, Lets Talk About You
Something else that we don't understand is why it should take two well-educated people an entire afternoon to install a light fixture they purchased in your store, especially when both have handled similar tasks. With two of us involved, putting up your Hampton Bay Faux Alabaster Glass Semi-Flush Nut Meg Finish light fixture should have taken ten minutes, at the most.
But the instructions included with the light were awful. Read the rest of this entry »
All About My ElbowPosted: July 16, 2015 Filed under: Foolishness | Tags: comedy, doctors, elbow injury, humor, postaweek 2 Comments
For about four weeks, I've been in pain. It's not so bad as long as I don't use my left arm. Unfortunately, (or perhaps fortunately) I've gotten used to having two arms and I rely on them both to get through my day.
After a few weeks of watching me grimace when I bent my elbow (something else I like doing), my wife asked me the same thing I'd have asked her if she were in the same condition.
"When are you going to call the doctor?", she asked. And while that's something you might expect someone who is hurting to do, I tend to wait a little before I dial-up the doctor.
"It's just a strain", I replied, "it'll pass".
"How'd you strain it?"
I couldn't answer that, so I agreed to call the doctor "soon".
I Didn't Call The Doctor
"Soon" passed, I didn't make an appointment and then my wife and I went on vacation. We had a great time, but I wish I'd gone to the doctor first. That would've kept me from pretending my elbow didn't hurt during our journey. And at night, my mind drifted over what was happening inside my creaky old body. Do I have tendonitis? What is tendonitis anyhow? What if it is tennis elbow? Why would I have that if it were? What if I need an elbow replacement? Read the rest of this entry »

Some of you may think that I do nothing but sit around and produce weird ideas to give myself something to write about. While it is true that I do that a lot, it isn't all that I do.
But seriously, I do it a lot.Whenever I'm not doing that, I'm doing something else. One of my somethings else is hiking with my wife. We'll throw stuff in a backpack, put on boots and spend the day getting lost in the woods. As we walk, we get time to talk, exercise and see really amazing stuff.
Sometimes, if we want an additional challenge, we will take Clif Bars out of our backpacks. We eat them as we walk and pretend that they taste good. I would like hiking more if I had Chicken Parmesan in my back pack. Since I never do, I rely on my wife and the amazing stuff we see to make hiking fun.
This week we are in Oregon, enjoying a part of the country that neither of us has visited before. And it was on a hike during this vacation that I saw something that redefined amazing for me. Read the rest of this entry »
I Want To Be A Sushi ChefPosted: June 30, 2015 Filed under: Foolishness | Tags: becoming a sushi chef, comedy, food, humor, postaweek, retirement, sushi 4 Comments
I retired from my police career in the fall of 2013. Twenty-eight years had passed since I showed up for my first day at the police academy. Those years took their toll on me, physically and emotionally. I'm proud of my career, yet I'm relieved that it is over.
And so I've settled into a life I never envisioned. I live quietly; cooking, exercising and writing fill my days. In the evening, I share dinner and laughs with my wife. I've got it good.
Now and again, someone will ask "if you could, would you go back to The Job?". There are parts of my career that I miss, but the short answer is no.
But that doesn't mean that I don't have ambition.
I Dream Of Sushi
While I'll never wear a police uniform again there is a job that I'd jump at – sushi chef. Read the rest of this entry »

My One Act Play About The Statue Of LibertyPosted: June 19, 2015 Filed under: Foolishness | Tags: comedy, fiction, humor, one act play, postaweek, statue of liberty 6 Comments
This week, I read quite a bit about the one-hundred-thirtieth anniversary of the Statue Of Liberty's arrival in New York. One of the things I learned is that the statue is sort of in New York and sort of in New Jersey. Liberty Island is part of New York, but the waters surrounding the island are part of New Jersey.
As I was trying to fall asleep last night, I thought about how important the statue is to us as Americans. I considered how my relatives saw Lady Liberty as they came to the United States and what that meant to them. And I wondered why nations don't seem to give each other cool gifts like that anymore.
But where the statue ended up…sort of in New Jersey, sort of in New York, got my imagination running on the idea of the statue being an over-the-top housewarming gift that a couple didn't really know what to do with.
I tossed and turned. Eventually I got the idea far enough along that I could get some sleep. And this morning, I wrote a play about the statue as that outrageous housewarming present.
To paraphrase an old Army recruiting slogan – "I write more off the wall stuff before noon than most people write all day."
Behold, my one-act play.

Increase your English vocabulary by learning the sometimes shocking true meaning of seemingly innocent words
It's so Christmasy! But in its original Old English form mistletan, mistletoe means 'shit-on-a-stick.'
The ancient druids held mistletoe sacred, hence an old common name for the plant is druid's herb. The druids thought the plant grew miraculously from bird droppings. In fact mistletoe is a parasite sucking nourishment from the tree hosts that it infests. All in all, a curious plant to symbolize the birth of a god.
In Old High German Mist means 'dung.' English belongs to the West Germanic branch of Indo-European languages. Mistel in Old English was the name of the white berries of mistletoe. Mistel meant literally 'shitling' or 'little dropping' and tan was one of the Old English words for 'twig' or 'stick.' The Angles and the Saxons who spoke Old English may have borrowed the word from the Vikings whose language is now called Old Scandinavian and who had a word for mistletoe, mistelteinn 'shit-twig.'
Long after the druids, botanists discovered that mistletoe can be propagated from feces dropped on upper tree branches by birds, after they have eaten the sticky, seed-rich, white berries.
But don't think of this at all this Christmas when you're standing under the mistletoe waiting to kiss your beloved.
Innocent Plant Names? Noooo.
Are all plant names sweet and gentle, summoning to mind Little Mary Green Thumb skipping merrily down her garden path clad in gingham frock and Victorian sun hat? Indeed not!
Often intruding into the purse-lipped purlieux of nineteenth-century science was "the old Adam," as Victorians used to dub undue anatomical reference. For example, the root word of orchid means 'testicle' in ancient Greek. The flower that red-faced dudes pin to maidenly bosoms on prom nights was named after certain orchid species of ancient Attica which possessed twin roots resembling the human scrotum. Oh dear! Does macho claiming then lurk in the dating ritual where the male fastens a symbolic scrotum to the palpitant bust of his female prey? One hopes not.
Avocado is an early mangling by Spanish conquisatores of ahucatl, the word for 'testicle' in Nahuatl, an Aztecan language of Mexico and Central America. Vanilla flavouring is extracted from seed pods of an orchid first called vainilla in Spanish. Vainilla means 'little vagina,' named because the shape of the vanilla pods reminded a botanizing but lusty explorer of what he missed most. Vaina from the Latin word vagina is still in modern Spanish where it means 'sheath for a sword,' which was its prime meaning in early Latin, where vagina began as a harsh, sexist soldiers' joke term for pudenda muliebra.
And so the great pounding, copulative rhythm of the universe throbs its brute way even into the pristine chambers of botanical nomenclature, even to besmirch the innocent symbols of Christmastide.

Djangos.com Is Sponsoring Used-Disc Charity Drives16 Mar, 2004 By: Holly J. Wagner
It seems everyone is converting used discs to cash these days — even nonprofits and charities -- with the help of Disc Drive charity events that the entrepreneurs behind Djangos.com pioneered.
The premise is simple: Charities collect used CDs, VHS tapes and DVDs, send them to djangos.com, and the company pays $2 per CD and $4 per DVD. It also pays postage and will return or recycle any discs it can't accept -- discs that are scratched, missing the original artwork and liner notes or stamped as promotional copies. The company will even provide a collection box for $20, which is deducted from the first payout so the fundraiser need not spend any money up front.
The Web site gets the discs to resell, the charity gets money, and consumers get rid of discs they might otherwise put in a yard sale. The drop box format lets organizations keep the drive going all year, if they want to.
Small-business owners who want to give back to their communities can also raise money for charities and boost goodwill with disc drives.
Even people who are reluctant to donate cash to an organization can often scrape together an old disc or two to drop in the bin.
"We created the Djangos Disc Drive program to provide nonprofit organizations with a new and simple way to raise megabucks and not ask for cash," said Steve Furst, president of Djangos parent company Sound Merchant. "The latest program to launch is the Stroke Association, which is part of the Heart Association. They should have some results in a few weeks."
Other charities that have benefited from Disc Drives include Rotary International, the Mt. Hood Kiwanis Club, the Portland Opera and some UCLA-based sororities.
"My involvement was primarily through Rotary. We did a Disc Drive with the Portland Trailblazers. We had drop boxes where people would just drop off CDs on the way in," said Portland, Ore., businessman David Porter. "We also did a CD Disc Drive where we just asked people for their old CDs. We raised hundreds of dollars for the Kiwanis camp for severely disabled children."

Bangalore, India (PressExposure) May 26, 2008 -- Young millennial women translate social networking skills and technology-friendly attitudes into a workplace advantage as âAccidentalâ Mashers, one of five Masher profiles defining the essential characteristics of technology early adopters in a new survey sponsored by Serena Software. The company interviewed 700 early adopters in the U.S. to identify key themes among their approaches to technology, work, lifestyle, personalities and demographics. According to Serena, as a result of the survey findings, a Masher is a person who is able to use technology to be more productive in their personal life and at work. Anyone can take the free quiz (available at http://apps.facebook.com/masher_quiz) to see how they use technology in their everyday life.
Serena Software, the Enterprise ALM leader known for its Business Mashups and employee Facebook Fridays, decided to sponsor the study out of its conviction that social networking skills learned by Generation Y online will be as important to their success in the new workplace as their classroom experience. A recent poll conducted by global outplacement firm Challenger Gray & Christmas found that despite the downturn, many employers still plan to hire college graduates this year: 22 percent of U.S. companies plan to hire more graduates than they did in 2007; and 46 percent will hire the same number of graduates as a year ago. Mashed up with recent Forrester analysis (âYouth and Social Networks,â Forrester Research, Inc., January 2008) indicating young women are more likely than young men to express their personality on social network sites (44 percent versus 35 percent), Serena suggests that Gen Y women, in particular, will be the ones who buck the âtechieâ stereotype to find new ways to collaborate for success.
âWomen no longer need to have an engineering degree or be in the IT department to make a technology impact at work,â says Christina Johnson, a 25-year-old marketing coordinator at Serena. âConsumer technologies like social networks and online collaboration tools are becoming standard business tools, so I can build software applications and collaborate with colleagues across the country, even though Iâm not a techie.â At Serena, Johnson gets paid to use Facebook every day to connect with customers and colleagues, and even counts CEO Jeremy Burton among her Facebook friends.
Johnson stands as an example of the Accidental Masher profile: predominantly younger females who, although less technology focused than other profiles like Alpha Mashers, strive to get ahead and break through a glass ceiling and see technology as a way to do just that. Accidental Mashers identified in the survey are:
· Extremely early adopters â 53 percent identify themselves as the first to try new technologies, even before they become mainstream, ranking higher than any other profile.
· Workaholics â 26 percent identify themselves as workaholics, more than any other profile.
· Reinventing processes/Breaking the mold â nearly 20 percent are working in roles that were newly created to address an emerging need in their organization, but reinvention governs their style, on the job and off. This profile also has the largest segment not currently employed, with 20 percent not currently working.
Masher Profiles
The survey results identify common trends across all participants, who tended to:
· Agree that technology not only plays a significant role in their lives but is also critical to the advancement of society
· Work most often in IT departments, but within diverse industries ranging from healthcare to financial services
· Enjoy jogging more than any other sport
· Prefer a structured and planned approach when dealing with the outside world
· Consider themselves politically moderate
Through cluster analysis, five unique segments, or âMashers,â were identified among technology early adopters based on their differentiated responses to key questions.
· The Alpha Masher â The tech elite, drenched in technology, Alpha Mashers see it as having significant positive impact on their lives and ability to communicate. At work they are delegators, developing solutions to hand off (think: senior director, consulting firm). The most likely to agree that technology has a positive impact on the world (94 percent) and to be working full-time (91 percent). Predominantly white males 35-44.
· The Accidental Masher â Not as comfortable with technology as Alphas, Accidental Mashers still have a deep understanding of how technology can improve their lives. With a less direct approach at work, they consider technology a tool to solve problems, but not the key to everything (think: software project manager, healthcare). Similar to Balanced Mashers, but more focused on work and enthusiastic toward technology. Predominantly white females 25-54.
· The Practical Masher â Using all the technology that most Mashers are excited about, they are less enthusiastic about the devices. They typically report to the Alphas and Accidentals at work, but are focused on implementation (think: Web designer, high-end retail). The most hesitant to agree that technology has a positive impact on the world (only 50 percent) or their lives (20 percent). Predominantly white males 25-44.
· The Balanced Masher â Although similar to Accidental Mashers, they do not place technology or work at the center of their lives. Approaching their job as a means to fund other things they enjoy, Balanced Mashers lead more relaxed lives than other types, and are hesitant to adopt emerging technology until they see how it relates to their personal lives (think: IT project manager, financial services). The most likely to be students (9 percent) and the least likely to be workaholics (9 percent). Predominantly white females 25-44.
· The Masher Lite â The most resistant to adopting new technologies before they are mainstream, they are less likely to take risks, actively solve problems or create efficiency. At work, they may adopt a new process once it is proven effective in another department (think: IT manager, department of Transportation). The most risk averse segment in relationship to technology (only 1 percent are the first to try new technology), their work life (only 7 percent take frequent workplace risks) and at home (only 4 percent take frequent risks in their personal lives). Predominantly white males 35-54.
Survey Methodology Marketing research consultancy Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates conducted the "Serena Software Masher Profile Exploratory Research Study" in March 2008 by conducting 700 online interviews of U.S. consumers. Each respondent was a PC and Internet user, who is an early adopter and heavily reliant on technology and decision-maker on all tech purchases. The survey was designed to gain insights from Serena Software employees and clients into what it means to be a Masher, and to identify unique segments within the Masher audience.
