Another beautiful week, we crammed it with fun...maybe even a little too much fun! Is there such a thing? MOPS was Monday so it was nice to get a break. Voss likes my undivided attention. It's quite flattering to be able to quiet him but it can also be exhausting. So when I get him quiet, I know I have a limited time to do what I can with 2 hands. Sometimes it's just enough time to go to the bathroom, maybe even brush my teeth. Other times I need to make lunches, clean up from breakfast (the day before), dole out a potty treat, sanitize a spill, etc. I was lucky enough to get some time in advance to print off all the nursery stuff and get it organized so I was actually prepared and ready for MOPS. It was nice. The speaker was something about doing community service with your kids. I sorta thought this was all already community service and didn't connect. So, I sat in the back and ate all the yummy breakfast casseroles while nursing. Marly's Birthday party kept going on Tuesday, we brought cupcakes for her class. I tried to make it back in time to be there for them to sing to her but I'm embarrassed to say I was stuck in Walmart buying Disney shirts. Luckily, her school is great about taking pictures. We brought the leftover cupcakes to the park for a pm play date with her bestie, KK. So, she was happy. We hosted a super play date on Wednesday. Early release days are killer because nap time becomes obsolete. We remedied this with a morning power hour. It was nice to toast with my ole pal, Tracy. It had been too long. Meanwhile the kids ran wild and had a blast. We are in the middle of having our house repainted. Every time I sit down to nurse, upstairs or downstairs- a painting man appears in the window. It's been fun. I'm sure they enjoyed the ph, too. Thursday was a whirlwind of a day. The Yacht Club is starting this toddler time so we checked it out. Lots of messy art with a fun story. Abigail liked it. I ran around like a crazy person for the rest of the afternoon packing up. Then we picked up Ellie early from school and Phil from work and headed to downtown Disney for the girls Bippity Boppity Boutique appointment. Last month while I was planning the girls carnival combo Birthday party, Phil asked them if they'd rather have a party or go to Disney. What kid would say, have a party? So, this is how it all happened. I should have stopped the snow ball right there. After their Birthdays last year, now they think a Birthday in Disney is all the bells and whistles. And this mom has a hard time saying "no"- especially overhearing Ellie tell Marly all about how cool the boutique is when they turn you into a princess with the magic fairy dust (AKA 5 cups of glitter). Phil's parents and Michelle and Georgette met us down there. Then, Phil's parents spent the weekend with us. Ellie seemed overtired on the drive down, eventually taking a nap right before we arrived. So I thought she was just tired for her appointment but then I noticed she was hot at the hotel that night. We got her some meds and she was okay on Friday morning. We hit Magic Kingdom first thing and she was good in the beginning. One of my plans is to get there first thing and knock out Fantasy Land before it gets crowded. Around 11 she faded again and it made me melt: to be sick in Disney World for your Birthday party! Awww! She slept in the stroller for a few hours. Luckily, the others were good to go. I think Voss enjoyed his first time in Disney, even if he slept through most of it. Ellie rallied later over some ice cream and did a great job powering through. I'm glad roller coasters invigorate her, too. She said Splash Mountain was her favorite. And now Marly is tall enough to ride everything so the 4 of us had a great time coaster hopping! We had a late dinner reservation in the Grand Floridian and got to meet Cinderella and her step family. That was a special treat! Saturday we got up early to make our next dining reservation at the Polynesian with Lilo, Stitch, Mickey and Pluto! That was my favorite. The morning started a little rocky because I forgot Marly's ticket in the hotel room and then lost Voss's pacifier on the Nemo ride in Epcot. Things got worse when Phil got stuck on the Soaring ride. We tried to make it better with the World Showcase and it worked for a little bit. It got hot and everyone was tired so we headed back to the hotel around 4. Phil and I never made it back out. The girls went swimming in the awesome hotel pool. We did a quick dinner in the food court and everyone went to bed early. Amazingly we all slept in and had a nice breakfast then more swimming. It was a long, trafficy drive home. We made it in time for 5:30 mass. A fantastic dinner was dropped off for us. Now we're just adjusting back. I'm taking turns putting Abigail's diaper back on and putting her back in bed and putting Voss's pacifier back in his mouth. What a work out! Glad to be home, though!
Disney Birthday Weekend!

I'm an Argentine filmmaker and I've been making films since 1963. I've filmed fifteen: they all deal with the social and political situation in Latin America. I try to show that there is only one means of making structural changes in our continent: the socialist revolution; As Che Guevara wrote, revolutions that are not socialist are nothing but parodies of revolution. The most significant of the "frozen revolutions" in Latin America is the Mexican one: it is at the same point as 60 years ago. For this reason I chose it as a theme and I made this film about Mexico. And not only for Mexicans, but for all of Latin America.
2-Self-criticism (Around "The Traitors").
– I would like to tell you about a personal experience: there are many companions, whom we could define as progressives, who really fight or try to fight for socialism but who have always carried out works of an individual nature, even thinking about the problem of true awareness, Or their awareness of the role that as intellectuals should play in the struggle that the people fight. Many have been the comrades who have launched to make a number of films that could be framed in general terms, as within the new Latin American cinema, obviously, but also within a cinema that we could call "revolutionary." From the concrete experience of all these colleagues, and I include myself among them, who have realized an individualistic or group experience, I can conclude that the results have been negative.
3- Methods of work ("The Traitors").
What do we do as a Film group of the Base? What is our activity, apart from making this film "Los Traidores" and distributing it? We are divided into three divisions: the first two produce and the third is dedicated to the graphic material, so that when Division No. 1 produces, No. 2 distributes, and vice versa.

Better Buses News
Patrick Harvie condemns "sticking plaster" approach to bus funding
Patrick Harvie has responded with criticism to the Scottish Government's latest funding deal with bus operators.
The deal will see £10 million made available to help with cash flow, and a phased reduction in the level of reimbursement firms receive for concessionary travel.
At present, the rate of reimbursement is 67% of an adult fare. This will fall to 60% in 2013/14, and 58.1% in 2014/15. Up until 2010, the rate had been 73.6%.
Patrick Harvie said: "This last-minute fumbling for spare change to tide over a vital public service shows that buses remain a low priority for the Scottish Government. Operators will continue to struggle, putting services at risk and leaving passengers to pay higher fares.
"SNP ministers seem happy with a sticking plaster approach to bus funding and a lack of regulation. Scotland's travelling public deserve better."

Researcher Reports Diagnostic, Prognostic and Therapeutic Promise of Epicardial Fat at Conference
When it comes to screening and modifying risk for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, research on epicardial fat is getting to the heart of the matter. This organ-specific fat has a unique genetic profile and dictates important local and systemic effects throughout the body.
Recognizing the importance of this line of research, the European Society of Cardiology recently invited Gianluca Iacobellis, M.D., Ph.D., professor of clinical medicine in the Department of Medicine's Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, to speak at their conference.
Iacobellis was one of five speakers from around the world who provided updates during a "Crosstalk Between Adipocytes, the Heart and Coronary Vessels" session at the Frontiers in Cardiovascular Biology 2018 Congress in Vienna, Austria.
He shared the highlights of a decade and a half of innovative research into the role and promise of epicardial fat.
"It was very nice because each speaker started their presentation by recognizing my work, which was very flattering," said Iacobellis, who is also director of the UHealth Tower Diabetes Service.
Work by Iacobellis and others demonstrates that epicardial fat is distinguished from other visceral adipose depots throughout the body.
"It's unique not only because of the anatomic location, but also because when I started looking at genetic, molecular and clinical features, I found these fat cells are unique in terms of gene expression and molecular properties. This has strong clinical implications."
Obesity in general has been associated with elevated risk for diabetes and heart disease for a long time, and fat around the waist, in particular, has been implicated more recently. But now researchers are diving deeper and discovering the unique and important role that organ-specific fat plays in driving these risks.
Iacobellis developed a technique to measure the cardiac tissue using simple, standard cardiac ultrasound. He demonstrated an ability to measure the thickness of the fat and predict the cardiometabolic risk in patients with diabetes or other high-risk populations in a 2013 study published in the American Journal of Cardiology.
"Lately, I found the ultrasound thickness of the tissue is an excellent and very responsive therapeutic target," he said. "There are medications that directly or indirectly target the epicardial tissue."
The fact that this fat tissue is inside and around the heart is also significant. "My research also showed that there is cross talk between the epicardial fat and the fat actually inside the heart cells," said Iacobellis.
Epicardial fat is a modifiable risk factor, which makes it appealing for both science and clinical research, he added. Now this fat can potentially be manipulated with pharmaceutical agents. For example, liraglitude plus metformin reduced epicardial fat by more than one-third after 24 weeks in a clinical trial, Iacobellis and his team reported in an article in the journal Obesity in 2017. In the same report, they also compared the two agents and found that liraglitude reduced epicardial adipose tissue to a greater extent than did metformin.
"There are medications that can reverse the fat from being an enemy to being a friend of the heart," said Iacobellis.
Sitagliptin and dapaglifozin, he noted, are additional agents that show promise for reducing epicardial fat.
Iacobellis is grateful for the support for his research that he has received from the Department of Medicine and the Division of Endocrinology.
"These studies could not be completed and be so successful without the help of UM — it's very interdepartmental research," he said.
In fact, he has been collaborating in other research with the Dr. John T. Macdonald Foundation Department of Human Genetics, the Cardiovascular Division and the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery.
Going forward, Iacobellis would like to further evaluate the direct role of epicardial tissue in coronary artery disease, evaluate how medications for diabetes and heart disease can target this fat tissue, and investigate the possible association between epicardial tissue and atrial fibrillation.

In recent visits to projects in Sierra Leone I was struck by how each had a sense of extended family among the people (often with disabilities or other challenges) involved. It became clear to us that they worked as family together, rooted in Jesus.
Westerners can struggle to replicate this because our culture conditions us to be about ourselves as an individual. It fuels a false narrative that tells us that if we join a community, it is to 'serve my needs'. For a Christian community, like those we visited, the true narrative is that the community shapes my life - as a place I engage with and invest in, I discover it to be a place where I grow.
Many Africans have a word for this: "Ubuntu" - the concept that who we are is enriched by those around us. Yet remember that any growth requires effort and challenges. A community may rightly make demands of us and hold us accountable.
In a church context we might therefore ask not 'What is my spiritual gift?', but instead the key question below:
Key Qn: [IN] How am I a gift to this community?
Challenge: Get to know someone different to you
This question is not answered by ourselves up front, but is instead answered for us by the community around us as we engage with it and it affirms us. We discover the answer along the journey! By giving ourselves to the community in this way, we in fact discover that the community is indeed an enriching place for us. It is a 2-way street - so our primary question to newcomers is not 'What can you do for us here?' (e.g. what rota slots might you fill!), but rather 'in joining how can we support you in your missionary discipleship?' (where is your missional edge - how might we support you in that?).
And as a church we also realise there is a wider community around us across the city - not a community to serve our needs, but one we are called to give ourselves to, even allowing it to potentially shape us. By being open to the diversity and difference out there, God may enrich us further. Surely this is the ethos in incarnational mission: just as Jesus came and ministered in a particular context, it undoubtedly shaped his ministry - though itdid not submerge it. Accordingly we should have an openness to the wider community, hence the challenge to get to know someone different to you.
This sense of community resonates with our 2nd discipleship habit 'Share the Walk'. As a church we encourage this on three levels: get into a prayer partnership or triple, consider joining a small group, and our whole church events (Sunday worship, prayer events, and members meetings). Note in the passage v25 the call to continue meeting. The word 'habit' in Greek is 'ethos', so can be 'mindset'. Sadly I have met people over the years who haven't so much fallen out of the habit of meeting, but seem to have adopted the mindset (or habit) of not meeting.
The Message translation for the passage says 'Lets do this'! Not because it is a good idea but because of a fundamental - because of Jesus. V19 makes clear that because of Jesus we can enter the most intimate place with God - our bodies become that place of worship. When we form community together, we coalesce as a body to be an even greater place of worship! That worship is not simply static, but looks forward - since we are a people of hope (v23). Our roots are in Christ, and being in Christ in community is like being in rich fertile soil for resilience and growth.
So v24 is a call to spur one another on. To 'love and good works' neatly sums it up: to be like Jesus Himself (hence our 3rd habit - ever closer to Jesus) - God is love, and love works itself out in practical ways. And it all has direction - v25 calls the destination 'The Day', when meet Jesus face to face as he brings all history to its completion.
A New Testament image often used for this is a bride at a wedding. We all know a bride will make many preparations to be beautiful on the big day. In the same way our love and good works as a community are the preparations that we make for the big day! Working out our faith in community, so that we might be fully prepared, beautiful and radiant for us together to be with Jesus on the greatest of all wedding days.

Colless turns back the clock for winning treble
IT WAS like old times again as top jockey Glen Colless collected a treble of wins at the Ipswich metropolitan race meeting last Wednesday.
The affable Colless has won five Ipswich jockey's premierships over the years, although the last of those wins was in the last decade.
When combining with Alan Bailey, who himself won seven Ipswich trainer's premierships, Colless was almost unbeatable a decade ago.
In recent times Colless has teamed up with Murwillumbah trainer Matt Dunn, who became the first interstate trainer to win an Ipswich trainer's premiership three years ago.
Colless was aboard the second winner of two for Matt Dunn on Wednesday – Snitziola which won the eighth race of a nine race card.
The first winner for Dunn was Alpintoro in the opening race and the jockey was former South African and multiple international Group 1 winner Jeff Lloyd.
These two winners took Dunn's tally for the current season to 12 wins, which is now three ahead of Tony Gollan, who trained a couple of placegetters on Wednesday in Bernindini and Sequalex.
The other two winners for Glen Colless were Gowan Brae for trainer Kelly Schweida and Touch of Bella for the Toowoomba based Tony Sears.
It was great to see Colless claiming a treble of wins at Ipswich, which has been a happy hunting ground for the superbly balanced jockey for many years.
Another former Ipswich premier jockey claimed a winning double on Wednesday as Michael Cahill guided home winners in the second and ninth races of the day.
Cahill is another former globetrotting jockey and his wins on Wednesday were aboard I'm Hector for Brisbane's Desleigh Forster, and Freerocker for trainer Tim Hurley who trains out of Deagon.
Hansen wins again
SUNSHINE Coast trainer Darryl Hansen has had three winners at Ipswich over the past month after the galloper Requirement added to his growing tally on Wednesday.
Six-year-old gelding Requirement was ridden by one of the boom apprentices Matt McGuren, and finally cracked a win at Ipswich at his fifth start at the track.
It is history now that Hansen's two-year-old Le Chef won his maiden at Ipswich on Christmas Eve, prior to becoming a millionaire by winning the Magic Millions for two-year-olds on the Gold Coast on January 10.
Afterwards Hansen was glowing in his assessment of the Ipswich track and spoke of working at Ipswich with thoroughbreds two decades ago for a brief time.
Group 1 returns
ON SATURDAY week the running of the CF Orr Stakes at Caulfield in Melbourne will herald the commencement of Group 1 racing in Australia for 2015.
The Chipping Norton Stakes at Warwick Farm on February 28 is the start in Sydney as the Championships of the Autumn Carnival provide a couple of weeks of mouth-watering Group 1 racing in NSW.
The Newmarket Handicap and the Australian Cup of $1m prize money each are the major prizes in Victoria, whilst in NSW there is massive prize money with the Doncaster Handicap carrying $3m, the Golden Slipper $3.5m, and the Queen Elizabeth Stakes $4m over the rich carnival in that state.
Top sprinters such as Terravista, Deep Field, Lankan Rupee, and Chautauqua are all back in work as are stayers including Lucia Valentina and Melbourne Cup winner Protectionist, who are stabled together at Newcastle with trainer Kris Lees.
In late April the Queensland Winter Carnival commences and will run through until the Ipswich Cup Day on June 13 and Tattersalls Tiara on June 20.

Nutritional Guidelines For Coping with Ailments
Understanding the wide world of nutrition can vastly improve your health. Nutrition is a very large subject to cover. Since nutrition is so individualized, finding what benefits you can seem a daunting task. Read on for some handy tips.
Pack your own snacks for the flight. Food at airports and on planes can be quite expensive and selection can be limited. To save money and ensure you have healthy food that you enjoy, bring your own. This also can be a lifesaver if you end up in one of the stuck-for-hours-on-the-runway nightmare scenarios.
Thiamin is an important part of a healthy diet. Thiamin works in the body to help you use energy from carbohydrates effectively. It also helps to regulate your appetite. Muscle function, heart and nervous system are all assisted by this vitamin. Thiamin is found in many foods in small amounts, but you won't find it in refined foods.
In order to maintain a healthy body, getting the right amount of sleep is very instrumental. A good sleeping tip that anyone can do is to limit the intake of alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine. These substances can disturb sleep patterns, and therefore, will prevent the body from having proper rest.
When eating out, ask your server for his or her recommendations. Restaurants often specifically train their servers to be very familiar with the menu. The next time you find yourself eating out, do not be afraid to question the staff. They will likely be able to point out to you, the healthiest choices on the menu.
When considering a diet that provides an adequate nutrition level, be sure to schedule regular checkups with your doctor. This will ensure not only that you are doing well with your current nutrition intake, but will also aid in making good choices for your future. Most insurance plans should make it affordable to keep a close eye on your health.
To ensure that you always have some high-quality protein readily available, pick up some frozen boneless and skinless chicken breasts to keep in the freezer. They're easy to defrost in a covered skillet over low heat, and you can finish cooking them in the same pan. Add some instant rice and fresh vegetables for an easy nutritious dinner.
When making a good probiotics supplement smoothie for a meal, it is important to only add ingredients that are healthy. Don't just load a smoothie http://www.researchcorridor.com/appetite-eating-disorders-market/ with fruit and ice cream. That will load it with calories, and turn it into an unhealthy treat. Use yogurt, berries, frozen bananas and a small amount of honey.
To get great nutrition every day, eat a large bowl of oatmeal or granola for breakfast. Have a big salad or a sandwich on whole grain bread with lots of veggies for lunch. Snack abundantly on fresh fruits and veggies. Have only one serving of whatever you are preparing or serving for dinner, and avoid snacking after dinner. This balanced approach will provide good nutrition and weight control.
If you are trying to cut down on the amount of soda that you consume and think water is too plain, try flavored water. This tasty alternative comes with the same amount of water that you require, and does not have the high sugar and calorie content as soda.
If you are part of a large group that is headed to an eatery that is less-than-modest with its portions, consider sharing with a friend who has a similar palate. Not only will you save money, you might also spare yourself the inevitable food coma that quickly follows an overindulgent meal. This is also a good choice for diners who find the idea of "doggy bags" and leftovers distasteful.
Milkshakes are unhealthy. You should avoid eating them, even if they are small. Milkshakes can be very high in fat, having around 30 grams of fat. If you really enjoy milkshakes, try a substitute. You can try making a smoothie or making a homemade milkshake. If you make the homemade milkshake, be sure to use low-fat items, such as yogurt and skim milk.
Most people think of fresh corn as a vegetable, and to some extent, they're right; it's plump, juicy, and full of fiber and Vitamin A. Unfortunately, it's also extremely starchy, and better thought of as a grain instead. Imagine corn tortillas and corn bread, instead of an ear of juicy corn, right off the stalk.
Make sure you're not forcing your child to eat everything that's on their plate. If you force them to keep eating after they're full, you'll encourage them to overeat. This can lead to problems like obesity and diabetes down the road. Respect your child's wishes when they say they've had enough.
Do not eat as many processed and packaged foods. These foods are manufactured, and they contain extra sugars which is very unhealthy for you if consumed in large amounts. Stick to low fat meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, grains, cheeses and foods that make up a balanced diet. Stay away from packaged and processed foods.
If you're trying to adopt a healthier diet, don't try to change everything at once. Start small by cutting down portion sizes, or adding some fruits and vegetables. As you get used to the small changes, you can make more changes, and eventually you'll be left with a healthy diet that you're happy with.
If you are going to eat food with high calorie or sugar content, try to eat it early in the day when your metabolic rate is moving at a faster pace. You are more likely to end up with excess calories that get stored as fat if you eat such foods later in the day when your metabolism is slower.
Legumes and beans are also excellent sources of protein. They lack the high fat content of red meat and provide many of the essential amino acids that meat does. However, beans alone will not provide the same amino acids that meat provides, so it's necessary for a vegetarian's diet to be composed of many other sources of proteins as well. Beans are also cheap and easy to prepare.
Choosing to eat a healthy diet will help you keep your energy at optimum levels. This article gave you some great tips; now start using them.

"Come on Lily! Hurry up!" Rin yelled, running as fast as she could to the landing ship. "Rin! You know I can't run that fast! Wait up!" Lily called after her, trying to run as fast as she could. Rin disregarded Lily's cries, having eyes only for the magnificent aircraft that was becoming closer and closer the faster she ran. When she finally reached it, she was completely out of breath. "I... Made... It!" she huffed, putting her hands on her knees, taking deep breaths in order to control her breathing. "You really shouldn't have run so fast Rin! Look at you now, you're a mess!" Lily snorted, finally catching up. Rin blushed, tugging at her hair and her clothes, making sure she looked okay. "Oh gosh... I don't want their first impression of me to be that I'm a slob!" Rin mumbled. "Do I look okay now?" Lily rolled her big, red eyes and nodded her head in a reluctant way. Rin looked up, towards the entrance to the ship. "This is it. My dreams of finally being in a guild are coming true!" she squealed, taking the first steps toward the ship. Once she stepped on, a huge grin formed on her face. "I'M GOING TO BE A MEMBER OF CRYSTAL SWAN" she screamed all of a sudden, picking up Lily and twirling her around. "Rin! Stop it! Put me down this instant!" Lily demanded, squirming to get out of Rin's grip. "I can't help myself! I'm so excited! I'm going to learn so many new things!" she exclaimed, jumping up and down. "Come on! Let's go explore!" she said, running farther onto the ship, Lily still in her grip.

Vitamin D deficiency warning – the amount of sunlight you need every day to avoid symptoms
Vitamin D is crucial for the body, as it helps to keep your bones, teeth and muscles healthy, according to the NHS. Without enough vitamin D, it's difficult to regulate the amount of calcium or phosphate in the body. A severe lack of the vitamin may even lead to bone deformities, rickets, or osteomalacia.

Acquired: Other
Gender: Female
By Tintara
Posted May 24, 2014
Strictly speaking the brown sex-link hen or ISA Brown is not a breed; it is a hybrid produced by the Institute de Selection Animale in France in 1978 specifically for the egg production industry and as such is a prolific layer. Usually a cross between a Rhode Island Red rooster and a White Plymouth Rock hen they are a relatively small bird in comparison to some of the meat breeds and are a very rich red brown in colour.
If you buy eggs from the supermarket chances are they have been produced by ISA Browns or similar hybrids. Their eggs are large and brown, although what is considered large by commercial standards was quite small for my 3 ISA Browns. The average ISA Brown pullet will start laying as young as 5 - 6 months of age and will go on to produce around 300 or more eggs during her lifetime. This does make them an extremely attractive proposition for the home owner who just wants enough eggs for household use.
Other features which make the ISA Brown an attractive back yard hen include
- lack of broodiness; they are not bred to be broody
- very friendly, laid back nature which makes them very good pets
The downside of the ISA Brown is that this prolific egg production does come at a cost to the bird due to the health issues (exhaustion, tumours, cancers etc) associated with it. She literally lays her life away; where most breeds will go through seasonal moults and 'shut downs' which allow their bodies to rest and recuperate, the ISA Brown, and other similar hybrids, has been specifically bred not to do that. She churns out egg after egg month in, month out for the first 2 years of her life which ultimately reduces her life expectancy to around 3 years on average. Certainly my 3, which were the same age, passed away within 6 weeks of each other at around about that age.
So, is the ISA Brown or brown sex-link hen the one for you? Well that really depends on what you want her for.
If you want an egg producing machine that you can either move on to another home or turn into a meal at the end of her producing life you will certainly get this with an ISA Brown.
If you want a pet that will keep you readily supplied with eggs in abundance and you accept that sadly she'll only last for 2 or 3 years then again, this is a good choice.
If you want a pet that will become an integral part of the family with the added bonus of being able to earn her keep then the fact that she will probably only be with you for a few years could be a deterrent. If this is the case you will be better off going for a pure-bred or a 'naturally occurring' cross which will give you less eggs but will be with you for a lot longer.

Breast sizes have always been a very hotly debated topic. What does it matter? Which is the right metric system to use? Which is the most attractive breast size? Is natural breast enlargement the best option? All these are questions that spark form such debates. The truth is that there is no single best breast size for everyone. Different men and women have preferences for different sizes.
We cannot all the same dismiss all the research finding that have been published. For example, it has been said that most people prefer C-cups, followed by D and DD in that order. This can however be attributed to the fact that most women belong to the C cups category, with the numbers decreasing as you move to both extreme ends. Measurements for both bra and breasts size are very important.
Best breast sizes according to size comparison charts
The average breast is size C. It is described as slightly larger than then average size, a fact that makes it more attractive and at the same times easily manageable. Size B is a bit smaller, which again makes it not very preferable but okay. On the opposite side, Size D is hard to achieve without enhancements. In fact, it is likely that Size D breasts may end up dropping faster than the rest.
A breast size chart helps compare the different sizes of breast sizes that there are. For example, a woman measuring 74 cm in their under bust will fall in the bra size 12. That will be size A, which is the smallest measure of breast sizes there is. An increment of about two inches leads to a next category of bra size.
How to find your breast sizes with size comparison charts
If you are in the dark about what exactly your breast sizes are, all you need is a size comparison chart. You will be taken through guided steps of measuring your breast size. In even more detailed websites, you will be taken through a gallery of size pictures to guide you through the process.
Finding out about breast size will in turn help you know the perfect size for your bra. This is very important. It for one helps avoid sagging of breasts or squeezing them unnecessarily. In fact, a perfect size bra is a key contributor in firmness or sagginess of your breasts.
How to increase breast size with size comparison pictures and charts
Size pictures and size comparison charts are perfect tools to aid in the quest on how to increase breast size. All you need is to take the measurements, ones that dictate the difference between different sizes. For example, you can note that Size B is two inches short of Size C. From there, you will start using the various bust enlargement techniques available, all while keeping track of your bust size addition.
Bigger breasts are undeniably attractive but only when the size increment has been achieved professionally. It doesn't matter if you went through surgery, pills or natural remedies. The fact remains that fuller breasts, especially ones fitting in the perfect size bra will always be attractive enough. Nonetheless, do not feel forced to enlarge your breasts unnecessarily. A celeb like Taylor swift is Size A; and we all know about her success in mainstream media.
How to reduce average breast size
As I have already pointed out, most women belong to the Size C breast category. As we go higher on the ladder, we will find Size D and DD. These are somehow very large breasts, once that may cause some forms discomfort.
Women in this category can consider breast lift surgery especially if the breasts are showing signs of excess dropping. Let it not be lied to you that all the celebrities you see in magazines, especially ones with size Ds or DDs got them naturally.
Always remember that you are way much better and beautiful just the way you are. Don't feel forced to go for operations and extreme you have doubts about. For example, Kim Kardashian is Size D and it is just so hard to keep one's eyes off her perfect breasts.

Managed Network Upgrade
We're updating our safety services as part of the Managed Network Upgrade. The upgrade will transition every school to a new combined router, firewall and internet filtering solution. This new industry-leading solution (currently used by schools, governments, and businesses worldwide) will be centrally managed and contribute to the wider services and support offered by N4L.
The rollout involves the installation of a new N4L router, which involves a physical replacement of the existing router. This 'box' will ensure schools remain connected to the Managed Network, provide access to smarter reporting tools, and will also support a school's ability to receive an upgrade to the bandwidth allocation – when required.
A technology partner, representing N4L, will complete the onsite upgrade of N4L equipment. These visits will take place during school term time and outside of significant schools events (e.g. examinations).
Our Technology Partners
The 12 IT support companies currently appointed to help with the Managed Network Upgrade are as follows, with more companies expected to be added in the coming months:
- Aiscorp
- Cyclone Computers
- Entity Hub Ltd
- Fusion Networks
- Isometric Solutions
- New Era IT
- Norrcom
- Revolutionise IT
- Smart Computer Systems
- Schooled Up IT Limited
- Support IT Limited
- Telco Technology Services (TTS)
The upgrade is scheduled to be completed for all schools connected to the Managed Network by the beginning of Term 4, 2019.
Our commitment to you
We're committed to providing equitable access to our technology services. This remains true through the rollout of hardware across 2400+ schools. While this does present its challenges, we'll be working with schools and technology partners to ensure that the rollout schedule reflects a diverse range:
- School size: based on student roll
- School type: primary, intermediate, composite, secondary
- Location: region – including rural and urban*
- Decile
*Subject to the regional availability of partner services.
We'll be identifying schools in monthly batches and working with IT partners to schedule appointments. We aim to notify schools the month before their upgrade and confirm appointments (date/time) at least a week in advance.
We understand that some schools may be coming off contract for existing security services, or may have been investigating future services. Where schools may be financially impacted by a delayed upgrade, we recommend getting in touch with the team to review options.
*Please note, this map is indicative of when a school's upgrade is estimated and may change due to technical complexity, size and location.

With so many changes in the pipeline, we get that you might have a few questions. So click here to read our FAQs. Or, if you'd rather speak with someone about the Managed Network Upgrade, call us on 0800 LEARNING or head to over to Support Hub.

In a recent essay in the Chronicle of Higher Education, Charlie Wesley describes the value of annotating texts and explains that many of his students don't seem comfortable with the practice. He recommends that instructors should encourage students to develop their own language of annotation, and that it is important to model different ways to mark up texts.
In Frank Ambrosio's course on Dante and the Christian Imagination, students interact with MyDante, an online environment for the study of Dante's Divine Comedy. They can not only annotate the text but can also read — and respond to — other students' annotations. Ambrosio's own "guide" annotations lead students through a particular interpretation of the text and help to model the practice of annotation. Students can also add images and sounds to the text.
In this article in the Journal of Interactive Technology and Pedagogy, Frank Ambrosio and I, along with our colleagues Eddie Maloney and Bill Garr, examined this idea of social annotation in MyDante. As we continue to develop MyDante, and our related project on Proust, we are continuing to explore how digital technologies can enable various ways of interacting with texts.

This list of FAQs cover our most common queries. Contact us via the Feedback form if you have unanswered questions or suggestions for new entries.
PAT Teaching Resources Centre
PAT Maths
PAT Reading
How are the resources organised?
Each PAT learning area is divided into a range of sub-strands /skills. Achievement is grouped into scale score bands. Maths and Reading have different scales. You can access information and resources about a sub-strand /skill and a scale score band by selecting each from the drop-down menus. You can also use the side-bar to navigate to the content you want. You can then access teaching activities /concept builders, annotated PAT questions and Australian Curriculum references for a particular sub-strand /skill and scale.
Where can I go for assistance in using PAT effectively?
ACER can provide advice by email (email@example.com) or phone (+61 3 9277 5447).
How can PAT results be used?
It is critical to schedule time for staff to analyse their results to get the most from the testing.
Results can be used at both group and individual level:
- PAT Maths and Reading scale scores can be used to measure improvement over time
- Percentile ranks and stanines will provide a picture of how students' results compare with results of students in the norm reference sample in the same year level across Australia
- Analysis of students' performance across curriculum content strands will provide information to inform teaching practice.
How do I print an activity?
At the top of the activity you'd like to print, select the printer icon to the right of the title. A pop-up print box will appear. Adjust your print settings and select OK.
How do I delete a page from my favourites?
Navigate to the page you would like to remove from your list of favourites. Near the top of the screen, to the right of the heading, select the yellow star icon and deselect to 'Remove this item from favourites'. This page will then be removed from your list of favourites and the star icon will not be yellow anymore.
How do I access my favourites?

How do I add a favourite?
To the right of the heading near the top of your screen, select the star icon and click to 'Add to this item to favourites'. The star will change to yellow. This page will then be saved in your list of favourites.
How do I use the annotated questions?
The annotated questions can assist you to pinpoint specific skills that have been attained or have yet to be achieved by students in your class.
What are the annotated questions?
The annotated questions provide an analysis of PAT questions sorted into skills and scale score bands. The annotations detail what skills students need to have used to answer a question correctly. Some of the annotations analyse why a student may have selected an incorrect option.
How do I use the teaching activities and concept builders?
You can view or print out a copy of the teaching activity / concept builder on your computer or tablet within the classroom while delivering the lesson.
The teaching activities can be delivered as whole lessons or you may choose to use only part of the teaching activity or concept builder in your lesson.
What are the teaching activities and concept builders?
Created by the team of Australian researchers responsible for the PAT tests, the teaching activities and concept builders are direct-instruction lesson plans written to assist students to consolidate their skills in various learning areas.
How do I use the resources centre?
To plan effective programs of work for your students:
- Assess your students with an appropriate PAT test.
- Review your classes' results on the PAT test.
- Sort your students' results.
- If you're using an OARS group report or an Excel proforma, sort by total score.
- If you haven't created a group report, on a blank individual report mark the initials of each student at their location on the scale.
- Group students' performance into bands.
- For each group of students, decide which content area or skill you wish to teach and select the band on the scale.
- Select an activity within that area.
- Class 5B completes PAT Reading Comprehension Test 5.
- Their teacher enters their responses into an Excel group proforma and then sorts and analyses the results to look for strengths and weaknesses in the class, within groups of students and in individuals for the different skill areas and particular questions.
- The Class 5B teacher sorts the results by test score within the group report.
- Their teacher divides the students into three groups based on their scale scores: 110–119; 120–129; 130–139.
- For the first group, their teacher wants to focus on Interpreting implied information and selects band 110–119.
- After reviewing the different learning areas available, their teacher selects Inferring overarching ideas, Summarising 1 as the first lesson to work on with this group of students.
How do the resources relate to students' PAT results?
Students' test results are reported as scale scores on the PAT scale for that learning area. PAT reports classify test questions by content or skill area and location on the PAT scale.
The resources centre has a similar structure to the PAT reports, classifying teaching activities / concept builders and annotated PAT questions by skill area and location on the PAT scale. This allows you to match activities to the achievement level of your students.
What learning areas are covered?
The PAT Teaching Resources Centre covers two learning areas: Maths and Reading Comprehension.
What is the PAT Teaching Resources Centre?
The PAT Teaching Resources Centre provides primary and secondary teachers with access to resources, research-based strategies and lesson plans that can be used to build the knowledge and skills of each individual student in your day-to-day classroom practice.
The PAT Teaching Resources Centre offers educators valuable support for turning PAT results into real, tangible learning outcomes.
Are all editions of PAT Maths catered for?
This resources centre uses the PAT Maths scale scores from PAT Maths 4th Edition. The PAT scale was revised in this edition to cater for more difficult items.
As of April 2017, PAT Maths Plus scale scores and item difficulty scale scores on online reports will automatically be adjusted up by 70 points on the PAT Maths scale.
Teachers using print editions of PAT Maths 3rd Edition or PAT Maths Plus need to add 70 to their scale scores to compare with the scale scores used in the PAT Teaching Resources Centre e.g. a scale score of 25 in PAT Maths 3rd edition is equivalent to a scale score of 95.

Staitionery season is starting to slow down a tad, so I'm taking a minute to make a looooooong overdue blog post. My apologies for leaving this sad thing to sit, unattended and lonely, for such a long time.
Jackie and Peter are a super cool, laidback couple from the east coast. When jackie and first started talking after booking, we realized that we had indeed been in Brownies some 20 years ago together. YIKES! crazy how small the world is sometimes. They now live with their beautiful baby in Newfoundland. I truly enjoyed meeting your family and friends from out east.
The weather was kindof yucky and super windy, so we mostly stayed indoors. The ceremony and recpetion was held at the Mackenzie Art Gallery and Jackie's vision of the room came together beautifully.
Thanks for being such an amazing couple to work with, enjoy!
This was our first look, I always set this up when a couple chooses to do the photos before the ceremony.

Maybe you are planning a small non-public ceremony with a bigger reception afterward. For your seashore wedding ceremony invitation, you may consider using wording to remind company to put on or carry their flip flops, whatever the degree of dress you count on them to wear. The wording you choose in your wedding ceremony invitation is determined by the formality of your wedding ceremony (formal or casual) as well as who's internet hosting your wedding. When I received married, this was SUCH a combat – we obtained so much flak for itemizing my mom's full title, together with from our invitation vendor! You might use casual wording however embrace your parents names, or use formal wording but with a casual design.
We had only talked about this a number of occasions (no real wedding ceremony social gathering, no formal centre pieces – as an alternative board games, civil ceremony, groom and finest identify in suits despite my FIL giving a lecture on how it is simpler to get tuxes since that's what everybody does these days).
While I can't checklist the entire examples here, know that there are a number of ways to word all types of family situations, from divorced, to deceased mother and father, to hosts who aren't the couples' parents. If the etiquette surrounding marriage ceremony invites is leaving you bewitched, bothered and bewildered, you're not alone. Forum – Join our discussion board and chat with real brides, share concepts and get great wedding ceremony planning recommendation. Your formal marriage ceremony invitations should solely be sent to company who are invited to both the ceremony and the reception.
The backside line, based on most experts, is that after you've adopted the vital rules of etiquette, you need to craft the invitation in order that conveys the overall feel of what you could have deliberate – and everybody concerned feels good in regards to the closing product.
Traditionally, that is the bride's parents, however ever changing household constructions and monetary dynamics mean that this may occasionally embody the groom's dad and mom or the couple themselves. I did not use this wording, however I've gotten a few invites to household weddings the place this wording was used (bride's dad and mom only on the host line). On average, count again eight to ten weeks from the marriage date to find out your mailing date. Generally, night invites have a tendency to not embrace formalities like having the invitation from the mother and father of the bride/groom.

This 2002 invention concerns aerosols containing caffeine that are used in inhalation therapy.
How does Patent# US 7078016 work, you may ask ever so alertly and intelligently? Well, the delivery of caffeine is effected by a condensation aerosol, which simply stated, is formed by producing a heated vapor of caffeine which is then further condensed to form aerosol particles that are comprised of less than 5% caffeine. When the vapor cools, it forms an aerosol, which is then inhaled by the unfortunate recipient of such.
If you are wondering whether you will experience the sensation of "Man, that's coffee" when you utilize Patent# US 7078016, don't. Some things in this world are meant to be drunk and other to be inhaled. You wouldn't drink a cigarette if you are still among those who smoke, would you? No, of course not. And why? Because it would ruin everything.
What would they do with all those coffee mugs, for one thing?
Consider how some other inventions on related topics have been handled as well. Read

Happy caffeine to all and to all a good…whatever!

The Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate softened by around -0.15% on Tuesday morning.
European data has had little by way of impact on single currency movement on Tuesday morning. This is as a result of unknowns regarding Greece's future in the Eurozone as the Eurogroup members decide whether Greece's debt repayment programme is acceptable.
The US Dollar, meanwhile, is generally holding in a position of strength versus most of its major peers. This can be attributed to speculation that Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen will abandon dovish language with regards to monetary policy.
The Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate is currently trending in the region of 1.1320.
The Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate softened by around -0.61% on Monday morning.
After oil prices softened amid oversupply in the US, demand for safe-haven assets caused the US Dollar to surge. Additional gains can be attributed to futures traders speculating that the coming week's data will produce better results than recent weeks, potentially pressurising the Federal Reserve into hiking rates.
The common currency, meanwhile, softened versus most of its major peers thanks to disappointing data out of the currency bloc's most influential economy. In addition to less-than-ideal German data, fears that Greece's programme for their extensive loan repayment will be rejected by the Eurogroup officials also weighed on the Euro.
The Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate is currently trending in the region of 1.1308.
Euro (EUR) Exchange Rate Softens ahead of Greek Debt Repayment Programme
After Eurogroup officials granted Greece a four-month extension to its current bailout programme, the common currency strengthened versus many of its major peers. However, as Greece prepares to present a programme outlining how they will gather the funds, the shared currency softened. This can be attributed to fears that if the programme is rejected, there will be no choice but for Greece to exit the Eurozone.
'We are compiling a list of measures to make the Greek civil service more effective and to combat tax evasion,' minister of state Nikos Pappas told Greek television network, Mega channel.
Additional single currency losses are as a result of disappointing German data publications. IFO Business Climate, Current Assessment and Expectations all failed to meet with median market forecast figures.
The Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate has fallen to a low of 1.1296 today.
US Dollar (USD) Exchange Rate Gains on Oil Decline
In the immediate aftermath of Greece being granted an extension to their bailout repayment, market sentiment improved significantly. However, with oil prices resuming declination amid oversupply in the US, risk appetite dampened.
'Despite optimism about the large drop in the US rig count in recent weeks, the pace of decline has been decelerating,' Morgan Stanley said. 'A further slowing (in rig count) would only reinforce concerns that a large production decline could take longer.'
Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) Exchange Rate Forecast to Extend Losses
Although US data is forecast to produce mixed results later on Monday, demand for safe-haven assets should see the US Dollar hold gains versus its European counterpart. However, there is the possibility of a Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate recovery if Greece's debt repayment programme is accepted by the Eurogorup.
There will be several influential data publications pertaining to both Europe and the US on Tuesday, which are likely to see EUR/USD volatility.
The Euro to US Dollar (EUR/USD) exchange rate advanced to a high today of 1.1393.

Organizational Theory
According to the modern organizational theories, organizations can be defined as technical systems comprising of technological aspects, human aspects as well as the sociology-technological aspects. The novel forms of human organizations emerged as a result of the rise in division of labor as well as specialization. The initial emergence of decision-making process occurred as a result of creation of novel decision-makers who worked to earn rather than working for equity reasons. Industrial revolution also contributed to the emergence of a new category of decision-makers (Lester and Parnell, 2006).
The classical form of organization theory emerged was witnessed between the period of 1815 to the year 1915. The key question that the classic theory intended to address was how jobs could be carried out in a more effective manner. It was mainly based on the principles governing scientific leadership. Hence, the key objective of the classical organization theory was to promote the effectiveness of the management team within organizations (Lester, 2006).
Concerns were raised regarding the motivation and mingling of individuals within an organization. The principles of management that emerged within the period of classical theory were not adequate in handling various managerial issues as well as accounting for individual behavior. Hence, the contingent organizational theory emerged due to the need to address the behavioral issues and concerns. Contingency theory was based on learning the different individuals behaviors within organizations or simply organizational behavior. This theory provided a basis for solving conflicts within organizations since different individual behaviors were accounted for (Lester, 2006).
The other change was the introduction of human relations field of management whose objective was to meet the human needs within an organization. It was later discovered that motivation was the key to improving employees performance and organizational productivity. From the beginning of the twentieth century, various management theories have come about and these include scientific management, classical management, behavioral management as well as management of the human relations field. The study of these theories improves knowledge and understanding of various public organizations since it promotes an understanding of individual behavior as well ways of solving conflicts that may arise (Lester, 2006).
Just same way as individual interactions present microcosm of organizational interactions, an organization is also a microcosm of the state. Organizations are made up of groups, which constitute the organizational basic structure. Several organizations and companies categorize workers into various types of temporary and fixed groups. These groups can either perform excellently or poorly and the society may regard their performance as wither destructive or beneficial. It is also evident that organizational performance determines the societal as well as the country or states performance. It can therefore be presumed that an organization is part of the state. This implies that there are so many organizations present within a single state.
An organization on the other hand comprise of various individuals who form the workforce as well as the managerial team. The workforce comprises of the human capital or employees that contribute to organizational performance and productivity. Interactions of employees or several individuals within an organization are true representation of organizational interaction. Hence, an organization that has individuals that are interactive can be termed as an interactive organization. Individuals that are present within an organization determine the productivity and performance of that organization. Hence, hardworking and productive individuals achieve high organizational performance and productivity.
According to Max Weber, a way through which inequality is maintained and developed comprises a form of traditional authority. He further argued that a leader dominates in cases where his or her authority is not challenged or questioned. He partially held the view that traditional forms of authority prevent the emergence of the legal authority forms. Weber further postulates of charismatic authority which arises when controlling others is done on the basis of personal traits and the established guidelines or rules. People obey charismatic leaders due to the fact that they have a strong link or connection to them (Parkin, 2002).
Weber further argues that the creative and driving force that arises from traditional authority is referred to as charisma. Revolution is the key aspect associated with charismatic authority. Generation of power can be executed by the individuals surrounding charismatic leaders. Initiation of change is the key aspect that is associated with charismatic leaders whereby most charismatic leaders lead to innovation or accomplishment of organizational change (Parkin, 2002).
Weber defines power as the capability to impose a will on another individual without considering the individuals desires and wishes. He therefore postulates that power is relational whereby one individual has to dominate over the other person. The three ways through which a person can exercise authority are through punishment and reward, physical power and influence of opinion. Authority on the other hand is has been defined by Weber as the quality that promotes or enhances power and not a form of power. An individual who has authority has the expertise as well as the capability of effectively communicating or interacting with other people (Parkin, 2002).
In an organization, the workers are more important compared to the system. Workers in an organization should not be viewed as a commodity but rather human capital. Workers make a great contribution to an organizational growth, development and performance. Industrious and hard working workers promote an organizations growth, development and productivity. It is however important to create a conducive working environment for the workers in order to promote organizational growth.
Motivation is the basic tool for promoting organizational growth and performance. It is essential to constantly motivate workers so that they can have the spirit and desire to perform. Good salaries and good working conditions are one form of motivating workers. Performance evaluation and appraisal is the other way through which an organization can develop. Workers should be educated and informed of the various targets, goals and objectives that are set. If possible rewards should be given to those workers who perform well as this will act as a motivation tool. It is therefore recommendable for workers to be treated fairly and not just like mere commodities. They should be viewed as important company resources. Without motivated workers, an organization can never be effective regardless of the types of technological systems and many other organizational systems that are present (Lester, 2006).

Congratulations to the former Victoria Secret model and actress who is expecting her second child with husband Griffin Guess.
"We found out we are having another boy and I'm so excited! It will be awesome for Gavin to have a buddy," she told the magazine. "I never had brothers so raising a boy has been awesome. Gavin is so funny and I get to be silly all day with him", she told People.com.
The expectant mother shared a selfie of her growing baby bump yesterday on Instagram and in the caption she said she's halfway through the pregnancy and the baby was a healthy one.
The 36-year old actress says though it wasn't easy from the early stage, now she eats clean and even does Pilates three days a week "I was really nauseous and could only handle eating bagels, Right now, I'm feeling great!".
Miller added that though she's taking care of her 2-year-old son, she's less worried about what's coming. "This pregnancy has been very different because I'm also chasing around a toddler, so you can't really lay down if you feel sick or tired," she explains. "But I also feel a lot less anxious about what's to come."

Tommy Moore
Tommy came along to the Noble Science and it was immediately obvious he was a skilled martial artist. I asked him what he did and it turned out he was a Silver Glove at Savate. So I asked him to come back and teach for us. I'm really pleased he said yes! – Oz
I'm Tommy and I look forward to training with you all.
My background:
I've been a competitive amateur boxer for a good many years, having started at the age 5. This is my favoured 'go-to' art but by no means the only one!
I'm also exploring the world of modern Bare-Knuckle Boxing (BKB), looking to have my first official bout in 2018.
Areas that I coach / train in include:
• Savate (Combat, Assaut and Dans La Rue)
• Panantukan (Filipino boxing)
• Jeet Kune Do
• Muay Thai
In my session for Noble Science I'll be covering a Primer on Savate – exploring semi contact, full contact, historical and self-defence.
Be advised – no one will have to wear the ridiculous unitard…
All you need will be trainers / boxing boots, gloves, and be ready to have some fun.

There's little doubt that AI and robots pose a very interesting challenge to the assumptions human beings have about work, utility, wages, and productivity. "Labor-saving" was always a positive adjective, but lately it seems more like a threat. In certain quarters of Silicon Valley, however, the war's already been lost, the rise of the robots is inevitable and there's nothing we can do about it.
Every now and then, though, you run into an example of how hard it is for machines to mimic the kinds of intellectual work we do with hardly a thought. A recent example is Perspective, the new machine-learning service that Alphabet (as Google is now called) released yesterday. The purpose of Perspective is to use machine learning to identify hateful or trollish content on message boards as a way of enhancing the quality of online discourse. In the wake of the 2016 elections, in which armies of anti-Clinton trolls paid by the Russian government almost certainly had a significant impact on the outcome, the question of how to improve social media is a pressing one indeed, and I wish Alphabet all the luck in the world in achieving that objective.

Geospatial Health
Well we simply finished our first week of Junior health class. To recap, I launched the category grading policies and expectations, then started the unit on sexuality. The individuals highlighted the intersections between access to health care (and different essential social supports) and public policy. Policy choices contribute to gaps in health insurance coverage protection for the underserved, and the contributors discussed how this contributes to health complications. Life is simply too short to waste it away attempting to get all the things excellent, or make everyone happy. No person and I imply no person is perfect, so stop wasting all of your treasured time and power on attempting to be the perfect.
Set real looking targets: It is attainable that seniors at office might overload a person with work. Being a dedicated employee, he or she might want to finish all the assigned tasks in one go and that too with perfection. This is quite an unrealistic objective. A person should at all times make sure that the goals set by him or her are real looking. He or she also needs to pat his or her back even on the smallest of accomplishments to remain positive. Above all, one should try to discover humor within the smallest of situations to beat anxiousness.
I also talked to Britt Hermes, an ex-naturopath who now catalogs the harms of different medication It's impossible for consumers to tease apart what is advertising nonsense and what's real," she stated. Various medication, including the stuff Goop pushes, subtly breaks down our confidence in standard drugs and convinces us the system is damaged. Pseudoscientific takes on health are marketed mainly to ladies, she factors out, and blurred with messages about magnificence. The end end result, she says, is a promise which you can be as blissful and thin and blonde and perky" as the girl selling the image.
