This is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 890,742 filed Mar. 27, 1978 now abandoned, which is a continuation of application Ser. No. 744,848, filed Nov. 24, 1976 now abandoned.
The present invention relates to a long-lasting flavored chewing gum which contains gum base, and a non-sugar sweetener, such as a saccharin sweetener, coated or codried with a filler, such as calcium carbonate, and to a method for preparing such gum.
Conventional chewing gum generally includes gum base composed of ester gum, polyvinyl acetate, latex solids, fatty acids, natural and/or synthetic rubbers, waxes and texturizers and bulking agents, water-soluble flavoring and water-soluble sweeteners, for example, various sugars such as sucrose and dextrose, and/or artificial sweeteners such as sodium or calcium saccharin, cyclamates, dihydrochalcones, glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhizinates, emulsifiers such as lecithin, mono- and diglycerides, and flavors. Such gum initially provides a desirable strong sweet taste which declines rapidly during the first three to five minutes of chewing to a very slight, non-perceptible level of sweetness and flavor. The result is that after about five minutes of chewing all that remains in the mouth is an essentially tasteless wad which provides little in the way of flavor, aroma or sweetness. Accordingly, there clearly is a need and long-felt want for a chewing gum which possesses long-lasting flavor and sweetness.
It has been found that the sweetness and flavor of chewing gums such as non-sour flavored (mint), fruit flavored and sour chewing gums can be prolonged by codrying or coating relatively small amounts of a non-sugar sweetener, such as a saccharin sweetener, with relatively large amounts of a filler, and then substantially uniformly dispersing such combination throughout the gum base. The non-sugar sweetener is thereby substantially bound up and retained in the gum base matrix and during chewing the non-sugar sweetener undergoes slow and controlled release into the saliva. The filler which also serves as a texturizer is substantially insoluble and thus is not released from the gum during chewing. In effect, the filler spreads out or increases the surface area of the non-sugar sweetener; thus when the codried combination is incorporated into a chewing gum, the release of the non-sugar sweetener from the gum is significantly slowed down. Furthermore, inasmuch as the non-sugar sweetener-filler combination is buried in the gum base and, as will be seen hereinafter, only very small amounts of the non-sugar sweetener are employed versus the relatively large amounts of filler, only the non-sugar sweetener is released upon chewing; the filler is substantially retained in the gum base even during chewing.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, saccharin or aspartame sweetener is codried with calcium carbonate and/or magnesium trisilicate and the resulting combination is dispersed in the gum base.
It is well known that fine pulverization of crystals of poorly soluble materials or even slowly dissolving materials of good solubility increases surface area thereof, which, in turn, increases solubility rate. However, it has been surprisingly and unexpectedly found that finely divided artificial sweeteners, such as finely powdered free saccharin acid or finely powdered saccharin salts, when incorporated into chewing gum base do just the opposite; the extraction rate of such sweeteners from the gum base during chewing is reduced with decreasing particle sizes so that the sweet taste and flavor of the gum are prolonged. The reason for this effect would seem to be that at the finer particle sizes, the sweetener is more completely protected from contact with saliva by the gum base. This results in controlled release of sweetener and flavor from the gum base. The codrying or coating of the sweetener on the chalk or starch or other fillers has the effect of increasing surface area of the sweetener (and thus, in effect, reducing particle size thereof) thereby resulting in controlled release of sweetener.
The terms "coat", "coated", "coating", "codried, codrying" and these terms having other suffixes as employed herein are intended to refer to the incorporation in or application of the non-sugar sweetener to the filler by dissolution, dispersion, integration, encapsulation or any other conventional technique of physically combining the artificial non-sugar sweetener and filler.
Conventional chewing gum provides initially a very strong sweet taste which declines very rapidly in the first 3 or 4 minutes of chewing to only a slight, non-perceptible level of sweetness. The chewing gum of the present invention, on the other hand, which contains the non-sugar sweetener incorporated with the inorganic or organic filler component, provides a chewing gum whose sweetness corresponds to that of conventional gum for the first 3 minutes but, thereafter, begins to drop more slowly and stabilizes after about 5 minutes of chewing at a desirable sweetness level. This sweetness level remains essentially stable for 15 to 20 minutes. In the chewing gum of the invention, during the first few minutes of chewing, the perceived sweetness is due mostly to sugars or sugar alcohols, or soluble artificial sweeteners (not combined with the filler) present in the chewing gum. Thereafter, the non-sugar sweetner combined with the filler is released, flavor is stabilized and the sweet taste persists for extended periods of chewing of up to 20 minutes.
In view of the above, it will be appreciated that by incorporating the non-sugar sweetener with the filler, in accordance with the invention, the initial sweetness impact of the sweetener is reduced or delayed. Thus, the sweetener incorporated in the filler may be used in sugar or sugar alcohol or artificial soluble sweetener-containing chewing gums where a second burst of sweetness from the non-sugar sweetener-filler combination is desired to produce a long-lasting flavored gum which will not have the overpowering sweetness which would normally result where uncoated sweeteners and sugar are employed together.
In forming the non-sugar sweetener combination with the filler, the non-sugar sweetener will be employed in a weight ratio to the filler of within the range of from about 1:100 to about 1:1, and preferably from about 1:100 to about 1:10, so as to provide a concentration of non-sugar sweetener in the filler preferably within the range of from about 1% by weight of the filler.
The non-sugar sweetener combined with the filler as discussed below will be present in the chewing gum in an amount within the range of from about 3 to about 0.2% and preferably from about 3% to about 0.5% by weight of the gum base, and will be present in the finished chewing gum in amounts ranging from about 1% to about 0.04% and preferably from about 0.6% to about 0.1%. Examples of non-sugar sweeteners suitable for use herein to be codried or coated on the filler include free saccharin acid (free saccharin acid may react with chalk to produce calcium saccharin), sodium, calcium or ammonium saccharin, sugar alcohols such as xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol or maltitol, cyclamate salts, dihydrochalcones, glycyrrhizic acid and salts, L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester (aspartame) and mixtures thereof.
The filler which is combined with the non-sugar sweetener will be present in the gum in an amount within the range of from about 5 to about 95% by weight of the gum base and preferably in an amount within the range of from about 10 to about 30%. Examples of fillers suitable for use herein include inorganic fillers such as calcium carbonate, magnesium trisilicate, talc, diatomaceous earth, aluminum oxide and mixtures thereof.
It will be understood that the non-sugar sweetener may be codried, coated, incorporated, entrapped, dissolved, dispersed, or otherwise combined with the filler employing conventional coating, drying or encapsulation technology. In one embodiment, the non-sugar sweetener (e.g., Ca or Na saccharin salt) is dispersed (and preferably solubilized) in water, and mixed with filler such as chalk to form a uniform paste which is then dried and ground to a powder, for example less than 50 mesh, and preferably less than 100 mesh. The powder can then be incorporated with the gum base components or mixed with the gum base as will be described hereinafter together with other conventional chewing gum components to form a chewing gum.
It will also be appreciated that the non-sugar sweetener-filler combination of the invention may be employed in chewing gum which includes sugar and/or other uncoated artificial water-soluble or poorly water-soluble sweeteners such as free saccharin, saccharin salts, cyclamates, aspartame, glycyrrhizinates, dihydrochalcones and the like.
In general, the gum base is prepared by heating and blending various ingredients, such as natural gums, synthetic resins, waxes, plasticizers, etc., in a manner well known in the art. Typical examples of the ingredients found in a chewing gum base are masticatory substances of synthetic origin such as styrene-butadiene copolymer, isobutylene-isoprene copolymer, polyisobutylene, polyethylene, petroleum wax, polyvinyl acetate, as well as masticatory substances of natural origin such as rubber latex solids, chicle, crown gum, nispero, rosidinha, jelutong, pendare, perillo, niger gutta, tunu, etc. The elastomer or masticatory substance will be employed in an amount within the range of about 5 to about 15%, preferably from about 8 to about 12%, and optimally from about 9 to about 11% by weight of the gum base composition.
In addition, the gum base will preferably contain a solvent for the elastomer which should have minimal tackifying properties and will preferably comprise hydrogenated ester gum, that is, glycerol ester of hydrogenated rosin and/or dimerized ester gum. However, other solvents may be employed such as pentaerythritol ester gum, polymerized ester gum, and ester gum. The solvent will be employed in an amount ranging from about 10 to about 40%, preferably from about 18 to about 30%, and optimally from about 20 to about 25% by weight of the gum base.
The gum base may also include a hydrophilic-type detackifier which will sorb saliva and become slippery and is incompatible with the elastomer and solvent for the elastomer. Examples of such materials suitable for use herein will include vinyl polymers having a molecular weight of not less than 2000, such as polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl butyl ether, copolymers of vinyl esters and vinyl ethers. It will be appreciated that the chalk or any other material which may be present in the gum base will not serve the function of the inorganic or organic filler coating agent for the nonsugar sweetener and that such filler must be separately combined with the non-sugar sweetener; however, this fraction of the gum base may be used for this purpose by combining the chalk or other filler with the sweetener prior to its in corporation in the gum base.
The gum base may also include hard waxes which serve as lubricants and should have a melting point of above about 65� C. and preferably above about 75� C. Examples of such hard waxes include candelilla wax, paraffin wax, carnauba wax, ozokerite, oricury, microcrystalline wax, and the like. The hard waxes will be employed in an amount within the range of from about 0 to about 50% by weight of the gum base, preferably from about 17 to about 40%, and optimally from about 20 to 30% by weight. The preferred hard waxes are candelilla wax and paraffin wax employed in combination so that from 2 to about 8% (based on the weight of the gum base) of the candelilla is employed with from about 15 to about 30% (based on the weight of the gum base) of the paraffin wax. The waxes are found to reduce the tackiness of the final gum composition without significantly reducing cohesivity thereof.
The hydrophilic-type detackifier will be employed in an amount within the range of from about 20 to about 40% by weight of the gum base, preferably from about 25 to about 35%, and optimally from about 28 to about 32% by weight of the gum base.
The gum base may also include a softening agent and lubricant combination which may comprise one or more hydrogenated vegetable or animal fats having a high melting point, that is above about 22� C., and preferably above about 50� C.; such softening agent and/or lubricant may be employed in amounts ranging from about 0 to about 15% by weight of the gum base, preferably from about 4 to about 12%, and optimally from about 5 to about 10%.
The gum base will also include an emulsifier to impart hydrophilic properties to the gum base so that saliva will be absorbed thereby making the gum base slippery; the emulsifier will be employed in amounts ranging from about 2 to about 12% by weight of the gum base, preferably from about 3 to about 8%, and optimally from about 5 to about 7%. Examples of such emulsifiers include glyceryl monostearate, phosphatides, such as lecithin and cephalin, Tweens, Spans and mixtures thereof.
In addition, the gum base may include colorants such as titanium dioxide, plasticizers, such as lanolin, stearic acid, sodium stearate, potassium stearate and the like, antioxidants, in an amount up to about 2000 ppm of the gum base, such as butylated hydroxyanisole, butylated hydroxytoluene, and propyl gallate.
The gum base may also contain particles of chalk (CaCO)3 as a bulking agent and texturizer (not combined with the non-sugar sweetener) in amounts ranging from about 0 to about 50%, and preferably from about 0.2 to about 25% by weight of the gum base.
The water-insoluble gum base may consist of any of the various bases disclosed for example in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,052,552 and 2,197,719. Typical ingredients included in gum base compositions are the following:
______________________________________ Parts by Weight______________________________________ Base IEster gum 58Chalk 30Rubber latex solids 10Lecithin 2 Base IIEster gum 88Rubber latex solids 10Lecithin 2 Base IIIChicle 20Jelutong 40Gutta soh 8.5Lecithin 2Chalk 2 Base IVPartially oxidized chicle 68Lecithin 2Chalk 30 Base VJelutong (dry) 60Gutta siak 13Lecithin 2Chalk 25______________________________________
The chewing gum of the invention may also include flavoring, such as sour or fruit flavoring or non-acid or mint flavoring in an amount ranging from about 0.3 to about 2.0% by weight, and preferably from about 0.5 to about 1.2% by weight of the final gum product. The flavoring may comprise oils derived from plants, leaves, flowers, fruit, etc. Representative flavor oils of this type include citrus oils such as lemon oil, orange oil, lime oil, grapefruit oil, fruit essences such as apple essence, pear essence, peach essence, strawberry essence, apricot essence, raspberry essence, cherry essence, plum essence, pineapple essence, as well as the following essential oils: peppermint oil, spearmint oil, mixtures of peppermint oil and spearmint oil, clove oil, bay oil, anise oil, eucalyptus oil, thyme oil, cedar leaf oil, cinnamon oil, oil of nutmeg, oil of sage, oil of bitter almonds, cassia oil, and methylsalicylate (oil of wintergreen). Various synthetic flavors, such as mixed fruit, may also be incorporated in the chewing gum of the invention with or without conventional preservatives.
The chewing gum of the invention will optionally, and preferably, include an easily extractable or water-soluble sweetener, the easily extractable sweetener being present in an amount ranging from about 90 to about 0.05%, preferably from about 90 to about 40% by weight of the final product to provide an initial burst of sweetness. Such water-soluble sweeteners may include one or more sugars, sugar alcohols, or sugar containing material, for example, monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides, some examples of which follow:
A. Monosaccharides of 5 or 6 carbon atoms--arabinose, xylose, ribose, glucose, mannose, galactose, fructose, dextrose, or sorbose or mixtures of two or more of the foregoing monosaccharides.
B. Disaccharides--sucrose such as cane or beet sugar, lactose, maltose or cellobiose; and
C. Polysaccharides--partially hydrolyzed starch, dextrin or corn syrup solids.
The sugar alcohols include sorbitol, xylitol or mannitol.
In one embodiment, sorbitol will be included in combination with sugar as the water-soluble sweetener. In such case, the sorbitol will be present in an amount within the range of from about 2 to about 20% by weight of the chewing gum composition, preferably from about 5 to about 15%, and optimally from about 8 to about 12%.
Furthermore, any of the water-soluble artificial or natural sweeteners set out hereinbefore may be present together with the non-sugar sweetener combined with the filler. In each of the preferred embodiments of the chewing gum and method of the invention, corn syrup will be employed as the plasticizer. However, satisfactory results may be obtained, for example, by employing sorbitol syrups, modified starches and the like, without the use of and presence of corn syrup in the chewing gum.
The method for forming a long-lasting flavored gum includes the steps of admixing melted gum base containing the filler-non sugar sweetener combination dispersed therein with a plasticizer such as a syrupy substance such as corn syrup or a modified starch syrup or sorbitol syrups and emulsifier such as lecithin, at a temperature ranging from about 180 � to about 210� F., to form a base-syrup mix, and (where desired) adding flavor oil, sugar, sorbitol, and other flavor to the mix with stirring. The resulting mix is then formed into sticks or tablets of chewing gum employing conventional techniques.
The following Examples represent preferred embodiments of the present invention. All temperatures are expressed in �F.
Fifteen grams of sodium saccharin is solubilized in 100 ml of distilled water. The saccharin solution is added to 270 g of chalk while mixing to form a uniform paste. The mixed paste is dried to remove the moisture and ground into a powder passing a sieve of 100 mesh.
An amount of 1230 g of gum base containing 88 parts ester gum, 10 parts rubber latex solids, and 2 parts lecithin is melted in a jacketed sigma mixer and 285 g of the chalk and sodium saccharin are added. The mass is mixed thoroughly for 30 minutes while maintaining the temperature at 140� to 180� F. The chalk and saccharin containing gum base is removed from the mixer and cooled.
The sodium saccharin is extracted from the gum base in accordance with the following procedure.
An aliquot of 40 g of the gum base is taken and mixed thoroughly in a Waring blender with 200 ml of distilled water. During mixing, the gum base is reduced in size to a powder form so that an intimate contact is maintained between the gum base and the water. After 5 minutes of mixing, gum base is separated from the water by filtration and the aqueous filtrate is analyzed for sodium saccharin using a standard UV absorbance method. The gum base is extracted again with 200 ml of distilled water for another 5 minutes and the aqueous portion separated and the sodium saccharin content determined. This same procedure is repeated until four extractions are made. Results are summarized below.

In order to evaluate the retention of sodium saccharin in gum bases a gum base is prepared containing 88 parts ester gum, 10 parts rubber latex solids, 2 parts lecithin. 1.5 Kg of gum base is melted in a jacketed sigma blade mixer. To this base 15 g of sodium saccharin of a particle size of less than 471 microns and more than 337 microns are added. The gum base is then mixed thoroughly for 30 minutes while maintaining the temperature between 140� and 180� F.
The gum base is removed from the sigma blade mixer, cooled and stored.
The sodium saccharin is then extracted from the gum base using the procedure outlined in Example 1.
Results are summarized below.
______________________________________ Percent of Original CumulativeWater Cumulative Saccharin Extracted Percent of OriginalExtract Time (min.) in Each Water Extract Saccharin Extracted______________________________________1st 5 67.7 67.72nd 10 13.6 81.33rd 15 5.1 86.44th 20 2.4 88.8______________________________________ Thus, after the first five minutes, more than half of the original saccharin is extracted to the water phase.
A comparison of the data of Example 1 and Control A clearly indicate that the extraction rate of saccharin from the gum base is slowed down by co-drying of saccharin on chalk.
Fifteen grams of sodium saccharin is solubilized in 100 ml of distilled water. The solution is added to 135 g of chalk and 135 g of magnesium trisilicate and mixed thoroughly to a smooth paste. The paste is dried and the dry solids are pulverized and passed through a 100 mesh sieve. An amount of 285 g of this mixture is added to 1230 g of gum base containing 88 parts ester gum, 10 parts rubber latex solids, 2 parts lecithin. The preparation of gum base and extraction are carried out as outlined in Example 1.
Extraction data are as follows:

A chewing gum is prepared using the gum base described in Example 1. The chewing gum composition is as follows:
______________________________________ Parts by Weight______________________________________Gum base (containing sodium saccharinco-dried on chalk as per Example 1) 21Corn syrup 17Sugar 49.8Sorbitol 10Artificial flavor 1Gum arabic coated flavor 1Lecithin 0.2______________________________________
In preparing the above composition, the gum base is melted and the corn syrup and lecithin are added and mixed. The artificial flavor is added and mixed for 3 minutes, and the sugar is added and mixed for an additional 3 minutes. The sorbitol is then added, mixed for 2 minutes, and the gum arabic coated flavor is added, mixed for one minute. The mass is removed from the kettle, rolled and cut into desired shapes.
Chewing gum prepared by this method is chewed for 5 minutes and the residual saccharin in the bolus is compared with that of commercial sugar-free gums after the same length of chewing.
The saccharin is extracted from the bolus and measured using a standard UV spectrometric technique. Results are as follows:
Percent of original saccharin retained in bolus of sugar-free commercial gums after 5 minutes of chewing=7.8%.
Percent of original sodium saccharin retained in bolus of the Example 3 gum after 5 minutes of chewing=10.1%.
Twenty-five grams of sodium saccharin are solubilized in approximately 500 g of water. To this solution 500 g of acid modified, thin cooking corn starch (Flojel 65 "National Starch and Chemical Corp.") are added and thoroughly mixed to produce a uniform paste. The paste is frozen and then freeze-dried. The dried material is ground in a laboratory grinder to pass 100 mesh sieve.
Three hundred eighty-two grams of the starch containing the co-dried sodium saccharin are intimately mixed with 1922 grams of melted gum base while the temperature is maintained at 180� F. In order to affect uniform distribution, mixing is continued for 15 minutes. This gum base contains 1.0% sodium saccharin.
The gum base is used to prepare a chewing gum according to the following composition:
______________________________________ Parts by Weight______________________________________Gum base (containing sodium saccharinco-dried with starch) 22Sugar 48.8Corn syrup 17Sorbitol 10Lecithin 0.2Spearmint flavor oil 1Spearmint spray-dried flavor 1______________________________________
The gum base is melted and cooled to 180� F. To this the corn syrup and lecithin are added and mixed for 2 minutes. The flavor oil is then added and the mass is mixed for 3 minutes. The sugar is added and mixed, followed by the addition of sorbitol and the spray-dried flavor.
The chewing gum is removed from the kettle, rolled, scored and cut into sticks.
The above chewing gum is presented to an Expert Sensory Panel.
For comparison, the panel is given a control gum (Control B) prepared in the same fashion, only the sodium saccharin is merely pre-mixed with starch prior to its incorporation into the gum base.
The panel is presented with coded samples of the Control B and Example 4 gums. The testing procedure is as follows.
Panelists chew one of the gums for 5 minutes, at which time the bolus is removed and put aside in a paper cup. Panelists then chew the other gums for the same length of time and put the boluses in another cup.
Panelists then rinse their mouths with water and consume crackers to remove residual flavor in the oral cavity. This rinsing and rest period lasts one minute. Then panelists taste each of the boluses and rate the level of sweetness and flavor on 0-8 hedonic scale.
This same procedure is repeated after 10, 15 and 20 minutes of chewing.
For the purpose of this test, the quality attributes are defined as follows:
Sweetness: The sweet sensation perceived in the oral cavity by the taste buds.
Overall Flavor: The overall flavor sensation perceived in the oral cavity.
The scale used is described as follows:
8--very strong
Average scores of Example 4 and Control B gums are summarized below:
______________________________________ Time (min.) 5 10 15 20______________________________________Example Sweetness 4.6 3.4 2.0 1.2Gum Overall Flavor 4.2 3.2 1.8 1.1Control B Sweetness 3.6 2.4 1.2 0.5Gum Overall Flavor 3.4 2.4 1.1 0.6______________________________________
The data are subjected to statistical analysis which indicates that the Example 4 gum has significantly longer sweetness and flavor duration than the Control B gum.

Skin Flick Trailer (1999)
A gang of neo-Nazi skinheads, representing the extreme right wing, break into the apartment of a mixed race bourgeois gay couple and sexually terrorize and violate them. This film sends up the gay fetishization of authoritarian and fascistic figures (cops, skinheads, etc.), and the phenomenon of the prevalence of homosexuality amongst extreme right wing leaders and movements.

Values versus Goals
Exploring Values versus Goals in Russ Harris' Happiness Trap. Fyodor Dostoyevsky once said: 'The secret of man's being is not only to live, but to have something to live for.' Have you ever considered this or other questions such as: What's life all about? What are you here for? What makes your life worth living?
It's amazing how many of us have never deeply considered these questions. We go through life following the same routine, day after day. But in order to create a rich, full and meaningful life, we need to stop to reflect on what we're doing and why we're doing it. So it's time now to ask yourself:
- Deep down inside, what is important to you?
- What do you want your life to be about?
- What sort of person do you want to be?
- What sort of relationships do you want to build?
- If you weren't struggling with your feelings or avoiding your fears, what would you channel your time and energy into doing?
Don't worry if you don't have all these answers on the tip of your tongue.
Your Values
We've already touched on values several times in this book. Values are:
- Our heart's deepest desires: how we want to be, what we want to stand for and how we want to relate to the world around us.
- Leading principles that can guide us and motivate us as we move through life.
When you go through life guided by your values, not only do you gain a sense of vitality and joyfulness, but you also experience that life can be rich, full and meaningful, even when bad things happen. Take the case of my good friend Fred.
Fred had a business venture that went horribly wrong. As a result, he and his wife lost almost everything they owned, including their house. In dire financial straits, they decided to move from the city out to the country, so they could live somewhere decent with affordable rent. There Fred found a job at a local boarding school that catered to foreign school students, mainly teenagers from China and Korea.
Values versus Goals
This job was totally unrelated to Fred's business experience. His duties involved maintaining order and security in the boarding house, ensuring that the kids did their homework and making sure they went to bed at the right time. He would also sleep in the boarding house overnight and prepare the children for school the next morning.
Many people in Fred's shoes would have been deeply depressed. After all, he'd lost his business, his house and a huge amount of money, and now he was stuck in a low-paying job that kept him away from his wife five nights a week!
But Fred realised he had two choices: he could dwell on his losses, beat himself up and make himself miserable, or he could make the most of it.
Fortunately, he chose the latter.
Fred had always valued coaching, mentoring and supporting others and now he decided to bring these values into the workplace. So he began to teach the children useful skills, such as how to iron their clothes and cook simple meals. He also organised the school's first-ever talent contest and helped the kids film a humorous documentary about student life. On top of this, he became the students' unofficial counsellor. Many of them came to him for help and advice in dealing with their various troubles: relationship difficulties, family issues, problems with studies and so on. None of these things were part of Fred's job description and he didn't get any extra pay for doing them; he did them purely and simply because he valued giving and caring. And as a result, what could have been a mundane job became work that was meaningful and satisfying.
At the same time, Fred didn't give up on his career. While he needed this job in the short term to pay the bills, he continued to look for work that he genuinely desired. He'd always been an excellent organiser and administrator, with a particular interest in theatrical and musical events, and this was the area he most wanted to work in. Eventually, after many months of applying for all sorts of work, Fred found a job as the organiser of a local arts festival. It was a job that fulfilled him, paid him well and allowed him to spend a lot more time with his wife.
Fred's story serves as a great example of how we can live by our values even when life treats us harshly. It's also a good example of how we can find fulfilment in any job—even if it's one we don't want—by bringing those values into the workplace. That way, even while we search or train for a better job, we can find satisfaction within the one we have.
Values Versus Goals
It's important to recognise that values are not the same as goals. A value is a direction we desire to keep moving in; an ongoing process that never reaches an end. For example, the desire to be a loving and caring partner is a value. It's ongoing for the rest of your life. The moment you stop being loving and caring, you are no longer living by that value.
A goal is a desired outcome that can be achieved or completed. For example, the desire to get married is a goal. Once achieved, it's 'done' and can be crossed off the list. Once you're married you're married, no matter how loving and kind, or how hard-hearted and uncaring you are to your partner.
A value is like heading west. No matter how far you travel, there's always farther west you can go.
A goal is like a mountain or river you wish to cross on your westward journey. Once you've gone over it, it's a 'done deal'.
If you want a better job, that's a goal. Once you've got it: goal achieved. But if you want to apply yourself fully at work, to be attentive to detail, supportive to your colleagues and engaged in what you're doing, those are values.
Why Are Values So Important?
Auschwitz was the most notorious of the Nazi death camps. We can scarcely begin to imagine what took place there: the horrific abuse and
torture, the extremes of human degradation, the countless deaths through disease, violence, starvation and the infamous mass gas chambers. Viktor Frankl was a Jewish psychiatrist who survived years of unspeakable horror in Auschwitz and other camps, which he described in gruesome detail in his awe-inspiring book Man's Search for Meaning.
One of the most fascinating revelations in this book is that, contrary to what you would expect, the people who survived longest in the death camps were often not the physically fittest and strongest, but rather, those who were most connected with a purpose in life. If prisoners could connect with something they valued, such as a loving relationship with their children or an important book they wished to write, that connection gave them something to live for; something that made it worthwhile to endure all that suffering. Those who could not connect with a deeper value soon lost the will to live—and thus, their lives.
Frankl's own sense of purpose came from several sources. For example, he deeply valued his loving relationship with his wife and was determined to survive so he could one day see her again. Many a time during strenuous work shifts in the snow, with his feet in agony from frostbite and his body racked with pain from brutal beatings, he would conjure up a mental image of his wife and think about how much he loved her. That sense of connection was enough to keep him going.
Another of Frankl's values lay in helping others and so, throughout his time in the camps, he consistently helped other prisoners to cope with their suffering. He listened compassionately to their woes, gave them words of kindness and inspiration and tended to the sick and the dying. Most importantly, he helped people to connect with their own deepest values so they could find a sense of meaning, of purpose. This would then quite literally give them the strength to survive. As the great philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche once said, 'He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.'
Values Make Life Worth Living
Life involves hard work. All meaningful projects require effort, whether you're raising kids, renovating your house, learning kung fu or starting your own business. These things are challenging. Unfortunately, all too often, when faced with a challenge we think, 'It's too hard' and we give up or avoid it. That's where our values come in.
Connecting with our values gives us a sense that our hard work is worth the effort. For instance, if we value connecting with nature, this makes it worth the effort to organise a trip to the countryside. If we value being a loving parent, it's worth taking the time to play with our kids. If we value our health, we're willing to exercise on a regular basis despite the inconvenience and exertion. In this way, values act as motivators. We may not feel like exercising, but valuing our health can give us the will to 'just do it!'.
The same principle applies to life in general. Many of my clients ask questions like, 'What's the point of life?', 'Is this all there is?', 'Why don't I feel excited about anything?' Others say things like, 'Maybe the world would be better off without me', 'I have nothing to offer', 'Sometimes I wish I could go to bed and never wake up again.'
Such thoughts are commonplace not just among the 10 per cent of adults who suffer from depression at any given time, but also among the rest of the population. Values provide a powerful antidote: a way to give your life purpose, meaning and passion.
Imagine You're 80 Years Old
Here's a simple exercise to get you started on clarifying your values. Please take a few minutes to write out or think about your answers. (You'll get more out of it if you write!)
Imagine that you're 80 years old and you're looking back on your life as it is today. Then finish the following sentences:
- I spent too much time worrying about…
- I spent too little time doing things such as…
- If I could go back in time, I would…
How did it go? For many people this simple exercise is quite an eye-opener. It often points to a big difference between what we value doing and what we are actually doing. In The Happiness Trap you can read more and explore your values in more detail. In the meantime, I'll leave you with this oft-quoted extract from Man's Search for Meaning:
We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances; to choose one's own way.
Russ Harris explains that the way most of us go about trying to find happiness ends up making us miserable, driving the epidemics of stress, anxiety, and depression. This empowering book presents the insights and techniques of ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) a revolutionary new psychotherapy based on cutting-edge research in behavioral psychology. Highly recommended.

"I'm impressed!"
About: Scunthorpe General Hospital Scunthorpe General Hospital Scunthorpe DN15 7BH
Posted via NHS Choices
Anything else?
My husband recently had a thyroidectomy, and has been on Ward 25 for longer than anticipated owing to complications in getting his calcium, potassium and other such things balanced. We are fairly new to the area and had no preconceived ideas about what Scunthorpe Hospital was like, or what its reputation was. As far as we are concerned, the surgical team have been fantastic and the staff on Ward 25 couldn't have been more helpful, considerate and professional. The 'human' side of nursing is very evident - we have been made to feel that they had time to answer our questions and talk things through if there was anything we were worried about. This is rare, as in some other hospitals you are frequently made to feel like something in a production line!
ps: A & E staff were also impressive.

Village Project Africa
Church at the Crossing learned about the work of Village Project through our very own Margaret Lewis. Margaret started Village Project as a way to care for some of the most vulnerable people living in Makutano, Kenya.
"The concept for Village Project Africa is not one that was born overnight, nor was its goals hastily compiled and implemented. Village Project Africa came to be because of the love two people had for the people of Makutano, Kenya. Davis Otieno and Margaret Lewis never started their work knowing that what was a small gesture of goodwill towards Davis' hometown would grow to be more than that. Davis and Margaret spent years working with the people of Makutano to learn what the needs of the community were and how those needs could be met."
Village Project Africa seeks to foster methods that can break the chains of poverty that hold down many of the vulnerable people of this village and others like it throughout Africa. Some of the most vulnerable are women and children, and as such, they have become the heart of the work. Village Project Africa seeks to provide long-lasting avenues of self-sustainability that will allow vulnerable women and children to step into a brighter future of their own design. Their goal is not to simply provide for these women and children—they want to equip them with the knowledge and skills they need to provide for themselves and revolutionize their lives and their communities.
The goals of Village Project are lived out in many different ways. They have opened a school, Heritage Academy, that caters to the needs of the children and offers them an opportunity to learn in a positive environment where any one is accepted, regardless of their financial state. Village Project Africa has also opened a community center, The Grace House, where women can come for support from each other as well as trade classes such as bead-making and sewing. The Grace House is also equipped with medical capabilities to serve the entire community, offering treatment that does not require injured and ill people to travel miles to receive.
As the project continues to expand and grow, their hope is that the change that has and continues to occur in Makutano, Kenya will begin to spread through the efforts of the community itself to other communities like it.
Church at the Crossing has had an incredible opportunity to connect with Village Project in some unique ways through things such as dress making, working with their clinic, building classrooms for the school, and helping kids with school supplies through Project 5&2. We are excited to see how this partnership will continue to grow through the Time Is Now campaign.

More roster moves this week are once again changing the make-up of the Quad-Cities River Bandits, something that manager Omar Lopez gets accustomed to as the Midwest League season continues.
"I feel in some respects like we are working with our third different team this year at this point,'' Lopez said. "We have a few players who have been around all season, but moves do impact what a team looks like and how it competes.''
Lopez feels like a series of moves with about a month left in the first half left him with a different team as the half ended, and he believes the latest moves have changed things again.
"We were an older team at the start of the season, but now with different players we are a younger team,'' Lopez said. "As a coaches, we deal differently with groups based on the body language and attitude you see from one day to the next. This team is different than the one we worked with in April.''
That leads to different approaches in how staff works with players, extending from on-field work to off-field meetings.
"Right now, I feel like we are starting over, pushing the refresh button,'' Lopez said. "We will see where that leads us.''
With Tyler White's promotion Tuesday, Quad-Cities has had 14 players promoted to higher levels in the Astros organization, five more than during the River Bandits' entire 2013 Midwest League championship season.
RECORD RUN: Andrew Velasquez of South Bend established a new minor-league record for reaching base when he reached safely for the 72nd straight game with a hit during a game Sunday against Fort Wayne.
The Silver Hawks' 19-year-old shortstop had tied the previous record of 71 set by future major-leaguer Kevin Millar in 1978 and matched by Kevin Youkilis in 2003 with a hit in his final at-bat one night earlier.
"I'm enjoying this streak and the little buzz going on around it,'' Velasquez told MiLB.com. "…I've seen the ball pretty well, taking a lot of good pitches, just having good at-bats.''
Velasquez now has his eyes on the professional baseball record of 84, which was set by Ted Williams in 1949.
His streak started in a game against Dayton following an 0-for-4 effort during a game at Quad-Cities on April 19.
POWER SURGE: Conrad Gregor became a social-media sensation earlier this season when his father caught a home run ball hit by the River Bandits first baseman during a Memorial Day weekend game at Modern Woodmen Park.
Gregor was promoted by Houston to high-A Lancaster the following week and has continued to put his power on display, named the California League player of the week Monday.
He homered three straight games for the JetHawks last week, driving in nine runs while going 8-for-25. Gregor is hitting .368 through 46 games with Lancaster and has hit nine homers since joining the team.
In the Midwest League, Kane County's Jeimer Candelario was named the player of the week and South Bend's Blayne Weller was named pitcher of the week after striking out 12 and throwing a no-hitter against Dayton.
MONTHLY HONORS: Peoria pitcher Rob Kaminsky, the first-round choice of the Cardinals in the 2013 draft, and former Clinton infielder D.J. Peterson were among players of the month for June chosen by Minor League Baseball.
Kaminsky took Midwest League honors, going 4-0 with an 0.89 ERA for the month. He struck out 28 batters and walked three in 30.1 innings.
Peterson was honored for his work in the California League where he drove home 33 runs and had an .838 slugging percentage in June for High Desert.
IN THE LEAGUE: Padres first-round draft pick Trea Turner made his Midwest League debut Sunday for Fort Wayne with a 1-for-5 game for the TinCaps.
The 13th pick overall in the June draft from North Carolina State won the Brooks Walker Award this season as the top shortstop in collegiate baseball.
ROAD WOES: Now managing the Cardinals' short-season team Johnson City, former River Bandits manager Johnny Rodriguez found himself in a bit of predicament Friday night.
After losing an Appalachian League road game against Astros-affiliated Greeneville, Rodriguez returned to the team bus to find that a driver irritated with a long postgame wait had walked away, taking the keys with him and leaving the team stranded 30 miles away from home.
Player Chris Rivera revealed the situation to the world on Twitter, writing, "Bus driver just left with the keys and said we can find our own way home.''
About an hour later, the bus company sent a replacement vehicle to rescue the team and at a series of home game this week, any and all bus drivers who present a commercial driver's license at the gate are being admitted free.

You may just think that dog beds serve as a place for your pet to sleep. But the fact of the matter is that they yield many psychological and physical benefits for the dog, as well as for its owner. To begin with, a dog bed provides your pet with a cozy space that is all their own. Whilst dogs are naturally sociable and for most of the day, only want to be petted and cared for by their owners, they still need some space and time alone.
A good bed provides insulation, carry for our backs and joints, warmth, and a feeling of security. When a dog has a bed of his own, he gets all of these profit, and more. Having a peaceful corner in the house will give the dog a chance to play with their toys, rest their head or just relax and watch the world go by.
You should choose your dog's bed by keeping certain parameters in mind to provide the maximum benefit to your dog during all the days and seasons. Below are listed some of the ways through which a dog bed can benefit both you and your beloved dog-
A nice dog bed shall provide your beloved dog with a relaxed, soft place where it can have a rest its bones as well as joints. The resting part becomes very essential if your dog is aging.
During the summers and winters, a dog bed provides an tremendously essential way of insulation. It certainly acts as a protective layer and a separation between the hot ground in summers and cold chilly floors in winters.
Dog beds are the way to keep your home clean and maintained as the dog hair and its odour is concentrated only at a single area i.e. the dog's bed. You will just have to clean the dog bed. A right and comfortable dog bed will discourage your dog to sit on your upholstery and make it unclean. Further, better quality dog beds offer easy to clean water resistant properties.
Everyone needs personal space. As each member of your family requires the much needed rest, same is the case with your dog. Your dog requires the much needed space where it can feel relaxed, protected and safe.

The federal presence in Chechnya continues to decline
The federal special services and Chechen guerrillas are adopting some tactics from their counterparts in Northern Ireland. The results could be similar: almost 40 years of conflict.
Developments in the North Caucasus bear an increasing resemblance to the crisis in Northern Ireland in the 1970s – as indirectly confirmed by Russian special service commanders who visited Ulster in October 2005, "to exchange experience."
It took the British government seven years to achieve a regime which has been reproduced in the North Caucasus twenty years later: troops locked up in their bases, guarding themselves; suspects detained without being charged; and using special assignment teams of uncertain origin to eliminate separatists.
North Caucasus: Moscow's tactics
Reforms implemented after the Beslan school hostage siege and the guerrilla attack on Ingushetia were mostly aimed at preventing any repeat of such events – that is, attacks by large guerrilla forces capable of destabilizing the situation in a city or a whole region. The existing system was militarized even further. Operative Management Groups (GrOU) were established, commanded by Internal Troops colonels; these are supposed to direct operations in the event of a terrorist attack. Internal Troops personnel numbers in the North Caucasus were increased; they are the main attack force in suppressing revolts.
In October 2005, this system was tested in practice: when guerrillas attacked Nalchik, the operation was headed by GrOU commander – until the Internal Troops commander for the NorthCaucasus flew in to take over. The experience proved to be less than successful.
A new law on countering terrorism was passed in spring 2006, returning the leading role to the Federal Security Service (FSB).
However, just like MI5, the FSB didn't want to take all responsibility for the crisis in a specific region. Despite the law on countering terrorism, an exception was made for Chechnya: a separate presidential decree ensured that the deputy minister for internal affirs remained as head of the operations staff in Chechnya, in contrast to all other regions.
Until recently, all federal security and law enforcement agencies had their own special assignment squads in Chechnya for the purpose of eliminating guerrillas. But this situation started to change as President Ramzan Kadyrov's influence grew. Accordingto our sources, the Interior Ministry's central staff had stoppedsending special assignment squads to Chechnya by 2006.
The new mountain brigades, now being established, will bebased outside Chechnya – in Dagestan and Karachaevo-Cherkessia.
Intelligence data exchange remains fragmented. Directsurveillance is only used in cities. Guerrillas in the highlandsare tracked only by reports from informers and radio intercepts.
Thus, all federal security agencies had reduced theiractivity in Chechnya by the end of 2006; not due to any wish toachieve reconciliation, but for tactical considerations – almostlike the situation in Northern Ireland in the late 1970s. The mosthighly-skilled units, comparable to British commandos – GRUspecial intelligence – are in crisis due to restructuring andcuts.
No one in Britain would have dreamed of using local personnelas extensively as this has been done in Chechnya. In 2007, Putincut the federal presence in Chechnya from 50,000 to 25,000 troops.In effect, federal forces now have the same number of personnel asKadyrov's formations. In July 2007, Kadyrov managed to secure thedismissal of the very last federal investigation agency inChechnya: the ORB-2. Arkady Yedelev, head of the Operations Stafffor Chechnya, is rarely seen in Khankala or Grozny; he prefersRostov-on-Don or Yessentuki. The center of the battle againstterrorism has shifted outside the borders of Chechnya.

LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY) – The Catholic church allows cremation, but guidelines released from the Vatican state remains must be buried in a sacred in place like a church cemetery.
"The cemetery is a sacred place. A place of pilgrimage, a place of prayer, a place for rest," said Cemetery Manager Brady LeBlanc.
Tuesday the Vatican's Doctrinal Office announced that Catholics should not have their ashes scattered or kept in a urns or jewelry.
"I think it's to bring awareness to some of the abuses that have happened within recent years. The church has always taught that the body is sacred because it's the temple of the holy spirit," said Father Arceneaux.
St. John the Evangelist Cathedral Pastor, Father Arceneaux said these guidelines have been in place for many years.
"The church has always taught that the body is sacred because it's the temple of the Holy Spirit. The teaching of the church said that our bodies and soul will reunite again and it's important that we keep that sacred."
St. John the Evangelist Cemetery Manager Brady Leblanc said over the years many have forgotten the reasons for burial.
"I think there has been a misunderstanding that when a family does choose cremation that that is the final act, but the church really discourages that because what if you lost that necklace then the cremains of that person is lost."
Leblanc said burial is a sign of respect for the dead and that's why laying them to rest in a sacred place is so important to the Catholic faith.
"It's all about dignity, that the human person is created God's image and likeness, and even in death that person gets the same dignities they were awarded in life."

Today I am sharing a swatch of one of the Funky Fingers I received from Ariel and Heather
This is Funky Fingers Evanora's Envy. I can't remember how many coats I used. I just realized I already had it swatched,but hadn't posted it.
I do have one thing to say. This polish did go on like a dream.It was very smooth and easy to work with. There was no streakiness or balding. I found this to be a very rare incident,as it is a pastel creme polish.
I can definitely see myself wearing this polish again as a backdrop for some nail art.
I believe that Funky Fingers polish is made by the same company that makes Color Club. I have never,ever seen Funky Fingers in my part of the 'verse. (LOL)
Do you own any Funky Fingers polishes? What do you think of them?

Two Person Hot Tubs
Two Person Hot Tubs for Indoors or Out
Two Person Hot Tubs: Luxury Made for 2
Nothing is more romantic then sitting in a two person hot tub with your loved one and enjoying the relaxing hydrotherapy that spas have to offer.
Traditional acrylic spas usually seat four or more people in a standard model but are going to cost you at least $4,000 for a basic model. Add to the cost of your new spa the price of having it installed and depending on what brand and model you choose you could easily spend as much as $18,000.
The majority of two person hot tubs that you find today are what are known as plug n play hot tubs. What this means is that they do not require any special plumbing or wiring to operate which is going to save you quite a bit of money. This helps make owning a spa more of a reality for a lot of folks.
Types of Two Person Hot Tubs
There are several different types of two person hot tubs that can be found for sale today, they range from wood hot tubs to blow up hot tubs.
Most common are the inflatable hot tubs and the portable, hard shell 2 person spas such as Lifesmart hot tubs and for this article we will be focusing on those 2 types.
Both styles of 2 person hot tubs have their own benefits however they share many common ones as well. For example, both styles of spas are plug n play, this means you will be able to simply plug your hot tub into a 110v electrical outlet in order to use it.
Additionally they are both portable. Because they are plug n play hot tubs and don't require what a traditional jacuzzi would require as far as plumbing and wiring, they are fairly easy to pack up and take with you. Of course the blow up hot tubs are a bit easier to move however the hard shell models can be relocated fairly easy.
Because they are plug n play and both can be moved easily, these two person hot tubs can be used indoors. It really doesn't get any better than sitting in your 2 person spa in front of the fire with the person you love.
Lifesmart Two Person Hot Tubs
Lifesmart hot tubs are one of the more popular hard shell 2 person hot tubs on the market right now and have a very good reputation. They also have a lot of different models which means you have lots of choices.
If you think you might want something that fits more than two people, no sweat, Lifesmart hot tubs come in sizes that fit up to 7 people. Of course one this size is going to be more comparable to a traditional jacuzzi when it comes to cost.
Inflatable Two Person Hot Tubs
Two Inflatable hot tubs are the most popular style of two person hot tubs found today. These blow up hot tubs are extremely inexpensive and are very easy to set up and take down. This makes them the perfect spa to take to the beach, camping or vacation home.
Although they are not going to be as durable as a hard shell spa don't be fooled, these plug and play blow up hot tubs are made to be tough and resilient. Of course they are not indestructible so some caution is needed.
If you are looking at two person hot tubs as a way to save money and enjoy time with your significant other then both these types of spas are worth taking a closer look at.

Unanswered: Can connect to database with Dreamweaver, but not with MySQL Query Browser
I currently have a MySQL database on the server provided with my webhosting package. I've connected to it via Dreamweaver CS4, and can edit tables and information with PhpMyAdmin, but PhpMyAdmin is just too slow. I'd like to use the MySQL Query Browser to edit my data.
When I try to connect to my server and database via either MySQL Query Browser or MySQL Administrator, I get the ERROR 2003: Cannot connect to server (10060). I am using the same credentials as I use for Dreamweaver, however, and they work fine.
Any ideas about why Dreamweaver CS4 can connect to the server, but MySQL Query Browser and MySQL Administrator can't?
