At the first town meeting held in 1772, it was voted to build a meetinghouse on a lot designated for that purpose in the center of the town. It was a simple log building, twenty-five by thirty feet, described by Rev. Edwin N. Hardy as "roughly constructed, unpainted, unheated and unadorned."

St. John's Wort for Depression
This natural remedy can help mild-to-moderate depression, but be careful about its interactions with other treatments.
With heightened interest in everything natural, from organic products to yoga and acupuncture, many people are seeking more natural approaches for health issues, including herbal treatments for depression. Case in point: St. John's wort.
St. John's wort, botanically known as Hypericum perforatum, is a long-living yellow flowered plant used as far back as ancient Greece for its medicinal benefits. It is believed that the compounds hypericin and hyperforin are among its many chemical ingredients that contribute to its effectiveness as an herbal treatment of depression. Primarily available as pills or capsules, St. John's wort is also produced in other forms including tea, liquid extracts, and even as a popcorn topping (However, it would probably take 100 or more bags of popcorn to get a large enough dose, so other formulations are preferable.)
In Europe, St. John's wort is commonly prescribed as a treatment for depression. But the U.S. Food and Drug Administration views St. John's wort as an herbal product and classifies it as a dietary supplement. As such, it can go straight into stores without testing of its effectiveness, dosage, or safety. Which begs the question, does it really work?
"Yes," says David Mischoulon, MD, PhD, associate professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and director of research in the depression and clinical research program at Massachusetts General Hospital. "There are about 40 published studies on the use of St. John's wort for depression. In general, they suggest that St. John's wort is more effective than a placebo and equally effective as tricyclic antidepressants."
However, when compared with another type of antidepressant, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), the results were a little less clear. "Recent comparisons against SSRIs like fluoxetine and sertraline have yielded inconsistent results," says Dr. Mischoulon, "though the studies may suffer from methodological problems. St. John's wort is likely as effective as the SSRIs as well, but we need more investigation to conclusively demonstrate this."
One example of such a methodological problem is that patients in the comparison with SSRIs may have been more severely depressed than those in the studies of St. John's wort versus tricyclic antidepressants. "In general, natural products seem most effective for people with mild-to-moderate illness, as opposed to more severe illness," says Mischoulon.
What Consumers Should Know About St. John's Wort
Generally, the recommended dose for St. John's wort is between 900 and 1800 milligrams per day. There are no studies comparing different brands, and there may be variations in potency depending on the preparation, manufacturing methods, and purity. Label information may not always be correct. Mischoulon suggests selecting a brand from reputable sellers and manufacturers who are more likely to have their own stricter manufacturing standards and greater odds of providing the product they promise. As with everything, buyer beware.
St. John's Wort Side Effects
Just because it's natural and doesn't require a prescription does not automatically mean an herbal product is without dangers. "St. John's wort has many side effects and can interact adversely with many prescription drugs, sometimes with disastrous results," warns Mischoulon. The most common side effects include dizziness, dry mouth, nausea, diarrhea, fatigue, and greater sensitivity to the sun. Some, but by no means all, of the prescriptions it can interfere with include antidepressants, birth control pills, blood thinners, cancer medications, and the heart drug digoxin.
Ultimately, using St. John's wort to treat depression symptoms may be a good idea, but as with any natural remedy, be sure to check with your doctor first.

CORN SOUP or ATULIN ILOTES
Atulin ilotes is pronounced as aw-two-lin ee-lo-tis. Atuli is defined as broth, mush or porridge with corn and coconut milk; ilotes means green or sweet corn. See reference below.
Guam corn soup is rich and hearty, filled with coconut milk, chicken and corn. It is excellent over hot rice. The cream of mushroom soup and flour listed in the ingredients in A Taste of Guam is optional, though enhances the flavor.
from a fan: "I used your corn soup recipe on new years day and it was fabulous! Thanks!"
from a fan: "First time making corn soup, its on point. Made your recipe for corn soup last night and it was awesome! the cream of mushroom really makes a difference."

April 25, 2016
By Nicole Pelletiere, Good Morning America
A set of triplets who were born premature paid it forward last week after donating pajamas to the babies of the NICU, at Overland Park Regional Medical Center, where they were born 10 years ago.
"I couldn't be more proud," dad Ty Swarts of Shawnee, Kansas, told ABC News. "I'm really happy to see [them] giving back -- especially to young kids. It's just a really big learning lesson...."
The siblings, born April 14, 2006, got the idea to give back to the tiny residents of the NICU after seeing a photo of themselves in pajamas the nurses gave them while they were in the hospital.
"They were born at 32-and-a-half weeks," mom Jill told ABC News. "We were fortunate enough to only have them stay for three weeks. They all came home on the same day, which is very unusual for multiples."
She added: "The NICU put them in PJs so we thought, 'Let's go off that, pay it forward and put more PJs in the NICU for little guys and little girls.'"

Argentina ghost town attracts tourists after 25 years underwater (VIDEO)
Epecuen was once a bustling lakeside resort in the farmlands southwest of Buenos Aires. Filled with saltwater baths and spas, the area attracted around 20,000 tourists every season. The town sat on the shores of Lago Epecuen - a picturesque lake which enticed visitors with its waters, which carried ten times more salt than the ocean.
But summers spent floating on the water were later brought to an abrupt end, much to tourists' dismay. A heavy rainstorm followed by a series of wet winters caused the lake to overflow its banks on November 10, 1985.
"On the 10th of November at 10 a.m. in the morning the embankment was breached, this stone wall that we had as a barrier, a very strong southerly wind made the water begin to flood through to the town," said Norma Berg, a 23-year-old resident at the time of the flooding.
Water burst through a retaining wall and spilled into the streets, prompting people to flee. Within days, nearby homes were submerged under nearly ten meters (33 feet) of corrosive saltwater.
Twenty-five years would then pass before Epecuen would reemerge. Years of dry weather caused the floods to recede in 2007, uncovering the once bustling town.
Although Epecuen has not been rebuilt, its ruins are attracting tourists - many of whom are willing to drive six hours from Buenos Aires.
Those willing to make the journey are welcomed by rusted car remains, crumbled homes, and broken appliances. Tourists climb staircases that lead to nowhere, and wander through a graveyard where the water toppled headstones and exposed tombs.
Those looking for a guide contact Norma Berg, who takes tourists through the ruins and manages a museum which is housed in the town's former train station.
It may not sound like a dream vacation, but 82-year-old Pablo Novak, who still lives on the edge of town, says it's a popular one.
"Whoever passes nearby cannot go without coming to visit here," he said. "It's getting more people to the area, as they come to see the ruins," he told AP. Novak was the only resident who refused to leave the town when the floods hit in 1985.
The local tourism authority is hoping Epecuen will be designated a heritage site, and hopes tourism will grow to be the future lifeblood of the area.

My family and I had just moved to our new neighborhood, and I wanted to find a yoga class nearby. I was so happy to find Beth's class right around the corner! While I benefit from all that yoga has to offer, at the time, I think I specifically needed to get a handle on the day-to-day stresses of city life.
My practice with Beth definitely helped me with my goal to "de-stress" and calm my mind, and also benefitted me through stretching and strengthening. Along with Beth's amazing skill as a teacher and communicator, her warm and friendly personality had me looking forward to class every week! Whether you're a novice or an advanced yogi, I would highly recommend Beth's classes to anyone looking for a rewarding yoga experience! Billie Williams, NYC
I found out about Beth's yoga classes through a colleague at work. I was looking for a form of exercise that resonated with me. The practice of yoga, which combines body, mind, and spirit, is very appealing to me because I feel like I am working on my whole self as well as getting exercise. I was also looking to develop my practice and become stronger and more flexible.
Before taking Beth's class, my yoga experience was usually part of a warm-up in a dance class. For the first few weeks or months of class with Beth, I enjoyed it, but also had the feeling of 'ok, when are we going to move?' I have since come to fully appreciate yoga as a practice in itself. Beth's yoga classes have also been extremely beneficial to me as a time that is just for me. I leave everything that is going on in my life off of my mat and just focus on my body and my practice. It has been a great stress reliever! I've also noticed my placement has definitely improved, and I have become stronger. I have developed a true yoga practice.
I love the gentle mindfulness Beth brings to her classes. It feels much more like she is sharing her practice than teaching class. I also especially love the way she gently corrects us with hands-on adjustments. These adjustments are always affirming and encouraging, and I find they help me to understand the poses better and express them more safely and fully. The heartfelt intent to help us improve our practice is extremely apparent in her touch.
I would recommend Beth and her classes to yogis of all levels. She has a great way of encouraging and teaching beginners as well as challenging those more experienced, even during the same class. Anyone who has the opportunity to practice with Beth is truly blessed. Her knowledge of yoga is extensive and her practice mindfully balances all aspects of yoga: body, mind, and spirit. She brings her whole self to her practice and her teaching, and it is clear that she cares for each of her students and is committed to helping them improve their practice. Beth brings joy and love to every class and that giving of her spirit is what makes her and her classes truly exceptional. Elizabeth McCarthy, Bronx, NY
I started attending Beth's yoga classes after hearing so many accolades from a few close friends who happened to have her as an instructor. I heard them talk about not only the physical challenges of the classes, but also how much they enjoyed the classes. When Beth opened a studio convenient to travel to I started attending her classes on a weekly basis.
I had been rehabilitating a hamstring injury with regular physical therapy and was interested in exploring whether I could improve my overall flexibility and, of course, posture. Beth's yoga classes helped me improve the strength of my hamstrings in both thighs, and in general increased my flexibility. I also learned a lot because Beth knows a lot about anatomy and shares that with her classes by explaining and demonstrating how to correctly get into and move through poses.
I gained a great deal from Beth's classes and workshops. I learned how to get into poses based on how the poses should feel. As a result, I feel more tuned into my body and that helps me to avoid injury. I also learned a few things about anatomy, which Beth incorporates into her classes. She has an excellent understanding of anatomy and can very quickly identify how and why a pose is off. A special pleasant surprise for me has been reconnecting with meditation too. I didn't expect that because it hadn't happened with other yoga classes. She also dedicates and weaves into the practice a spiritual and meditative state, which is just as important as going through the poses. In fact, I think her class more than any other yogi I've taken classes with blended the two in such a way that I feel spoiled now. Even though I'm not able to take her classes in Northampton, it's her guidance I hear in my head. Especially if I have an instructor who is zipping through the poses and I know I'm not doing them correctly as a result.
I enjoyed everything about Beth's classes and workshops. It was such serendipity to discover her classes. I never could have predicted the positive effect it's had on my practice. Heather Rolen, NYC
I just wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed my first foray into yoga! I really thought it would be too difficult for me (given my size!) Under your "tutelage" and gentle ministrations I learned the rewards of yoga practice. Lisa Smith NYC
Just today I was at Reflections Yoga (in NYC) checking out a Basic Quick Fix class and my mind was racing from having completed my sixth "to-do" list for the day (and I arrived late – a total no-no, sorry, Beth!). My frenetic state lasted about 10 minutes … or maybe it was five, I wasn't sure because Beth had us start on our backs and suddenly, quite literally I was grounded. Breathing (what a concept) and moving with purpose (unheard of!) was exactly what I needed to become present and slow down. That hour was the juiciest part of my day – 60 long-lasting, beautiful minutes. Liz at Alignyo (www.alignyo.com)
I initially started taking yoga classes with Beth by chance. A group of coworkers organized a group and hired a yoga instructor to teach at our offices and it was literally across my office. Coincidentally, around that same time, I started becoming curious about yoga, so I gave it a try.
At the beginning, I thought of yoga as a way to stretch my body. After many years of being overweight, I began exercising. The toll of biking and gym exercises on my body was a little hard, so I wanted a practice that would help me gain more flexibility. Unbeknownst to me, the meditative aspect of yoga became another facet that is now part of my daily practice.
By practicing yoga regularly with Beth, my flexibility has increased, and I've gained a deeper awareness of body movement. I also learned a lot about technique and proper alignment and have been able to create a home practice. The meditative aspects I learned with Beth have transferred into a personal mindfulness meditation practice as well.
What I enjoyed most from Beth's classes is the personal touch she brings to each class. Beth is always very attentive to one's limitations and challenges, and always provides alternate poses in order to achieve the same effect. She is also knowledgeable on body mechanics and always answers all of my technical questions about body mechanics and alignment.
I would certainly recommend Beth Tascione's yoga classes. Over the years, I've introduced her classes to some of my friends, who have ended up loving the experience. Because Beth teaches in a more intimate way, one ends up learning so much more. Nestor Perez-Moliere, NYC
I have been interested in yoga for a very long time, taking classes on and off for several years. After a long period of time not practicing yoga, I began looking for reasonably priced classes in my neighborhood. I looked up on the internet and voilà, I found Beth's classes. Having been diagnosed with high blood pressure a few years ago, as well as suffering from glaucoma, I wanted to find out how yoga would help me dealing with these issues, particularly my high blood pressure.
I have experienced many benefits both physically and mentally from practicing yoga. First, Beth encouraged me to develop a steady home practice, which I still do. My home practice is an extension of the class, where I continue exploring my body and mind to help bring the two together. As a result, I am still taking the same dose of the high blood pressure medication that I was originally prescribed when I began taking the class with Beth. So, it must be working!
Beth is very patient and takes time to look for ways to make challenging asanas more approachable. Also, she is always reading and trying to find ways to incorporate the reading into the classes. In addition, each weekly class was devoted to a specific part of the body. And from time to time she would create a series of classes that focused on a particular theme, like the chakras. I will never forget those special classes!
I highly recommend Beth as a teacher for anyone suffering from high blood pressure or anyone with a back or a knee condition that makes them think that yoga is out of reach for them.
Taking class with Beth has been an experience that I will always treasure. Staying in a yoga class for five years is something of an accomplishment in a society where people tend to drop out very early after embarking on a new project. So, in my case, staying committed for so long was thanks to Beth's professionalism, dedication and sweetness. I really appreciate all her work! Victor Cruz, NYC
Thank you so much Beth. I feel like the Reiki really helped me get back closer to my normal mental state. The fertility drugs really wrecked havoc on my brain; it's been so challenging. After that one session with you, I feel calmer and more peaceful. And less pain in my jaw! So thank you so much for that! Chelsea B, MA
Breathe and receive. With this opening suggestion, Beth creates and Reiki and Restorative Yoga experience that is deeply supportive, calming and transformative. Beth is attentive to every detail; she creates an environment that is peaceful and soothing as she communicates through her sensitive touch, beautiful voice and gentle presence. Through her exceptionally skillful practice, Beth invites a state of peaceful stillness, rest and opening. Receive and breathe. Lisa L., Northampton, MA
I had taken a yoga class with Beth at my workplace and appreciated her attention to alignment and posture- the physical side to yoga from which the other benefits can sprout. When I learned she was offering Reiki sessions, I thought it would be interesting to learn about and experience Reiki from someone whose approach to yoga resonated so much with me.
While there wasn't anything specific I wanted to work on in these sessions, I noticed I always felt much more "smooth" after a Reiki session. It helped me pay attention to the subtle flow within my body rather than just muscles and bones.
One of the things I really enjoyed about working with Beth were the "debriefs" afterwards when we would talk a bit about what we each noticed; often we had both noticed a tension or a release in a certain area. I also enjoyed that she asked if I had a focus for the session. This helped me become more mindful - more intentional and receptive - both in our sessions and in general, helping me experience things through the lens of what I was seeking to focus on: feeling grounded, appreciative, patient, creative, or at times, with no focus at all - just seeing where it leads. I appreciated that Beth would incorporate my focus into her practice as a guide for the session, and I found that it often carried on with me through the week.
Trust is important to me in any medical or physical practitioner, and Beth is very trustworthy both as a yoga teacher and Reiki master, and also as a person. She is caring, attentive, and a good listener. She is also good at translating your observations into actions; good at noticing what might be needed and then choosing what to do about it. I appreciate her skill and perspective, and I consider myself very lucky to have been her client. I have recommended Beth as a Reiki practitioner to friends of mine and would recommend her to anyone in need of Reiki. Rachel Franz, Brooklyn, NY
I came to Reiki because I was dealing with pain and discomfort in my body and was suffering from anxiety. I was unfamiliar with the technique and wanted to find out if it was something that could help me with these issues. While I only had a few sessions with Beth, I experienced a decrease in my physical discomfort and an overall sensation of increased wellness and calmness. What I liked best about working with Beth was her level of expertise and knowledge of how the body works. I also was very comfortable with her hands-on skills - I found the hands-on work to be quite beneficial. I would recommend Reiki sessions with Beth to anyone who has areas of pain, stiffness, discomfort and is willing to tune in to the sensations. Susi Brooks, NYC

This post is nominally about the he-said/she-said dispute over Brett Kavanaugh's nomination for the U.S. Supreme Court. But that's not the topic. Not really. What it's really about is decades-old trauma and why Christine Blasey Ford did not deserve the endless attacks on her allegedly shifting memories.
This post also comes from personal experience.
No, I was never sexually assaulted as a teenager, thank goodness. My experience was more mundane. At about the same time Dr. Ford remembers fighting off her attackers, someone marched me into the woods at gunpoint with the probable intention of killing me.
At least, that's how the police viewed it at the time. My view was simply that there was a period of time in which I estimated my life expectancy in seconds.
Eventually, I escaped, partly because I was a 38:12 10K runner, and once I got a chance to put an obstacle between me and that gun, my legs took over. I was off and gone, hoping to get far enough away to make it a difficult shot before he could get a clear line of sight. It worked, because I'm here now to tell the tale.
Telling this story still brings up a bit of PTSD-related adrenaline. I can't imagine what it would feel like if someone like President Trump was busily assaulting my memory of the event the way he has Dr. Ford's.
I'm a guy, and can't speak for women. I definitely can't speak for Dr. Ford. But what I can say from my own experience is that memories like this are weird. Some things are in sharp focus. Others are a peripheral blur. There's actually a whole science of this in sports psychology, where Olympic athletes can feel the same thing. A Tour de France cyclist once said that if a train wreck occurred beside him during the race, he'd know it had happened, but only in a sort-of disinterested academic manner.
Not to mention that memories warp with time.
People who don't believe Dr. Ford see a shifty, untrustworthy person trying to spin her memories for maximum political gain. Having been in my own traumatic situation, however different, what I see is someone struggling across the decades to figure out peripheral details that had never before been relevant.
Start with the date. Ford was criticized because she initially said the attack occurred in the "mid-1980s" before settling down on 1982.
Forget the question of whether, 36 years later, there's a meaningful difference between "mid-1980s" and "1982." It's not as though, when I was marched off into the woods expecting to die any second I was busily memorizing the date. (What I did memorize was the guy's license plate number. I could recite that for years afterward.)
If I wanted to know the date, I could get it easily, because I was a robbery victim, not a sexual assault victim, which meant I felt a lot safer in reporting it. In fact, they caught the guy within a couple hours and convicted him a few months later.
But without going to the courts and looking it up, all I can do is what Dr. Ford appears to have done: try to figure out how the event fits into the sequence of other memories in my life. For example, I was in Alaska on a summer law clerkship. I only did that once, so that's a huge landmark. Furthermore, I was on my way back to college to finish my Ph.D., so it was probably just before the start of the next semester.
The event also inspired me to do something non-academic for a bit, so I worked on a political campaign: specifically, John Anderson's independent run for President. (He'd been my congressional representative for many years, so I'd had a pre-existing interest in him.)
Put that all together, and I get sometime in late August or, maybe early September, 1980.
And, when I started writing this post, I'd have told you I was pretty sure that that was the date. But, there's a problem. If I play back a different part of my memory timeline, I get the date as 1979, not 1980. If so, my work on John Anderson's campaign must have been a full year after the robbery that inspired it.
Does this mean I was never robbed?
I also know that when faced with events like this, your mind picks out specific details. Blasey Ford recalls her assailants' laughter. I recall staring down the barrel of my assailant's gun.
Later, the grand jury peppered me for details. What caliber was it? Was it a single-action or double-action? Was it loaded? Why didn't I fight back?
Some of their questions were ridiculous, others were simply beyond my knowledge of handguns. And all I could say about caliber was that it looked like a cannon, but that was probably a matter of my perspective at the moment.
What I was certain of was that it was a revolver. And when asked if it was loaded, all I could say was that I didn't know if there was a round in the chamber. But I could see four bullets, two on each side, staring at me. From their positions, it had to have been a six-round cylinder.
There are other details I vividly remember, including how I escaped. But two decades later, I was vacationing in Alaska and had a chance to revisit the scene of the attack.
It was easy enough to locate, because it was a scenic overlook offering a view across a valley to a large glacier. That's why I'd been there in the first place. But beyond that, little fit my memory. It wasn't as isolated as I'd remembered, though new construction might have accounted for much of that. What really startled me was how short the trail into the woods actually was. Adrenaline messes up our sense of time, often by making seconds feel much longer. If you're walking or running, that, in turn, messes up your sense of distance. I knew I was in the right place, but it didn't match my memory.
Again, this was a robbery and possible attempted murder, not a sexual assault. There are major differences. I did experience some degree of PTSD, and I have sometimes feared being judged for getting myself into such a dangerous situation. But that's nothing compared to the approbation sexual assault victims often feel.
My point is simply this. My own experience was pretty mild, compared to Dr. Ford's. But if I have trouble distinguishing the gun that was pointed at me from a Wyatt Earp .45 Colt…and if my sense of time and distance are warped regarding an event about which I testified to a grand jury only days later…why shouldn't Dr. Ford's memories be even more slippery?
The important details truly stick. I know it was a six-shooter revolver. I will never forget those four bullets, staring at me evilly, two on each side. I know what it felt like to be marched into the woods, expecting to die. I know what it felt like to be plotting my escape. I know what it was like to make the attempt, expecting to be shot in the back at any second.
Those are the type of things that stick. The stuff that's not relevant to survival doesn't. Because at the time, you're totally focused on survival.
And this is why the alleged "inconsistencies" in Dr. Ford's story don't matter. If you've not seen your own version of those bullets staring at you, it's hard to understand how the urgency of the moment affects your perceptions of some details…and how strongly others are seared into your brain.

Exciting Changes We Can Expect from Joomla 4
Content Management Systems are Robust
Content management system, Joomla, is undergoing some exciting changes. Developers will soon be unveiling Joomla 4 which promises to delight users with inventive upgrades.
With 4.0.0 Alpha 5 already released, users are eagerly awaiting the announcement that Joomla 4 has arrived. The official launch date has not been confirmed, but details about new features are already circulating.
What Users Already Love About Joomla
Joomla has been around for nearly a decade. The award-winning CMS launched in 2005 and has established itself as safe, reliable and search engine friendly. Many developers choose Joomla for its world-class user interface, powerful performance and its multitude of extensions (over 7,000 to date).
Major Changes Unique to Joomla 4
- A new and refined core User Interface
- Faster loading pages that will reduce bounce rates
- Layer improvements for Model View Controller (MVC) architecture
- Service container implementation for global dependency management
- A new media manager that delivers immaculate editing capabilities and makes organizing files incredibly easy
- A cleaner codebase that allows developers to produce intense, hard-wearing applications
- A completely refactored event dispatching system
- Improved SEO features
The New Publishing Workflow
Joomla 4 also provides users with a feature that may transform content management. The new publishing workflow is a way of systematizing articles that are tailored to the needs of each user. This feature will replace static states (such as unpublished or archived) by facilitating the creation of custom states. This is an intuitive feature that was constructed to harmonize with how people work.
All of this innovation will be available for instantaneous installation thanks to a faster downloading process. Dynamic colours and beautiful typography also accompany the new Joomla. These improvements and design elements deliver a website that looks as smooth as it functions.

"Exit strategies should be a part of any business plan and founders should create agreements about what will happen in this case before getting too far into doing business together," explains Crystal Stranger, president of 1st Tax and author of The Small Business Tax Guide. "Sit down as early as possible to divide up assets and clients, or come to an agreement for financial compensation for the partner who will leave. Generally, the longer this process takes, the more unpleasant this is. If handled quickly, then usually a beneficial arrangement for all can be found."
But no matter how smoothly a breakup is handled, it can still affect clients and customers. You will need to reassure them.
"It is a good idea to contact clients and tell them that changes to the business structure will be coming soon, but stay positive and don't say anything bad about your partner," advises Stranger. "This is important because I have seen too many times where one partner decides to backstab the other by contacting all clients and trying to get them to leave with that partner. Notifying them first puts you in a good light and they are likely to let you know if the other partner starts stirring up drama. In the long run, the partner who keeps their cool and acts professionally always ends up ahead. From experience, around 70 percent of the clients that leave with the aggravating partner have come back to the stable business partner after a period of several months."

Hello There,
There are many ways with which to communicate our presence in this world, but all revolve around our ability to express ourselves as individuals. Our knowledge of self, or lack of it, can send out messages of miscommunication that interfere with our ability to interface positively with others. Self-expression is our signature. It tells people at an instant many things about us in graphic detail. Our willingness to share who we are with the world is evident in many ways. Here are just a few:
- Our manner of dress
- The accessories we wear
- Our eyewear
- Sunglasses
- Our hairstyle
- Male facial hair
- The way we apply cosmetics
- Our weight and how we manage it or ignore it
- Our voice – intonations and inflections of tone
- Our facial expressions –smiles, grins, smirks, signs of sadness
- Our carriage and our stance
- Our overall body language
- Our routine mannerisms
- Our routines in general
- Our preferences overall likes and our dislikes
- The manner in which we furnish our homes or our offices
- The attention we pay to their maintenance
- The way we schedule our days or refuse to
- The way we organize and use our belongings
- The attention we pay to all the details and responsibilities we must attend to
- The cars we drive
- The style of bikes we ride
- The motorcycles, boats or other recreational toys we own and operate and how frequently
- The sports we like to watch and/or participate in
- Our interest in leisure activities or lack of it
- Our credentials and the areas we have devoted to study and self-improvement
- Our handwriting
- The words we use and how much we reveal when we speak, write or draw
- The involvement in our children's, grandchildren's or in our other family member's lives
- The computers we own
- How much time we spend on them
- The email communications we sent out
- What research we conduct and why – our interest in information or disinterest in certain subjects
- The cell phones we choose – who we call and the conversations we have
- What church we belong to, or our beliefs in spirituality overall
- The way we view our government
- The way we see beauty or our inability to experience aesthetic sensations
- The type (s) of music we choose to listen to
- Our taste in cuisine or determination to use food as only a fuel for our bodies
- Our sensuality or our inhabitation toward intimacy
- Our health and the maintenance of it
- The way we treat our friends and/or the way we allow them to treat us
- How much we entertain
- How much time we spend with just ourselves and what we do when we are completely alone
- The way we embrace or neglect our inner child
- The way we choose to go about personal realization and transformation
It is these things and so much more that compile our personal profile and that we share or decide not to, that are responsible for the way in which we are interpreted in this world. How simple or complex we want to appear is up to us. There are always options and opportunities, but only if we embrace them and apply these alternatives to greater ways with which to express ourselves. Theoretically, then, self-expression can really be super simple if we choose it to be.

Capsoni S, Giannotta S, Cattaneo A. Beta-amyloid plaques in a model for sporadic Alzheimer's disease based on transgenic anti-nerve growth factor antibodies. Mol Cell Neurosci. 2002 Sep;21(1):15-28. PubMed.

The AD11-transgenic mouse exhibits a progressive neurodegenerative phenotype induced by expression of anti-NGF antibodies, which resembles some key features of human Alzheimer's disease and provides further support for the relationship between NGF and AD. In this latest paper, Capsoni et al. report on the amelioration/reversal of this neurodegenerative phenotype by intranasal administration of NGF or by peripheral injection of the nicotinic agonist/acetylcholinesterase inhibitor galantamine. Treatment appears to be time-dependent and effective only when given during the early stages of degeneration, prior to the onset of the full-blown neurodegeneration observed in aged mice.
This data suggests that large peptides, such as NGF, can effectively circumvent the blood-brain barrier and gain access to the brain following intranasal administration. Access of intranasally administered agents to the CSF is probably limited by their molecular weight and lipophilicity. Although the rodent olfactory epithelium covers a far larger area of the nasal mucosa than in it does in humans, and diffusion distances are much shorter, this study provides support for the recent work of Born et al. 2002 who demonstrated intranasal delivery of neuropeptides to the CSF of humans.
This paper is another interesting step forward for the use of peptides as therapeutics agents. Peptides are generally not considered a 'sexy' area for drug development, even though the advantages of intranasal delivery are considerable. It is rapid and bypasses the blood-brain barrier, targeting the brain directly without entry into the circulation. It thus avoids degradation by the high concentrations metabolic of enzymes in plasma and the peripheral hormone-like side effects of neuropeptides. The non-invasive nature of intranasal delivery may facilitate the treatment and prevention of many different neural disorders, in addition to AD.
Although NGF has proved useful in this particular rodent model of sporadic AD, it is unlikely that such treatment would be beneficial in a human AD scenario either alone or in combination with a current AD therapeutic, such as galantamine. The cholinergic decline and concomitant reduction in trkA expression in the cortex and nucleus basalis of the AD brain is well documented. Hence neurotrophic factors such as NGF, which acts via trkA receptors, provide limited potential as a therapeutic strategy. Although treatment with growth factors protects against cholinergic cell death in experimental models (Haroutunian et al., 1986; Mandel et al., 1989), recent observations suggest that such neurons may simply down-regulate their phenotype, rather than die, and that treatment with such growth factors may cause a faux rescue of cholinergic neurons by re-establishing their phenotype (Haas et al., 1998, Weis et al., 2001). In support of this, Capsoni et al. have demonstrated that treatment with NGF or galantamine are effective only when given in the early stages of pathological change. Translation of this early therapeutic intervention would be practically impossible in clinical AD.
Regardless, the AD11 mouse model provides an excellent tool for the development of therapeutic strategies targeted simultaneously at a number of markers relevant to human AD. It also provides further positive evidence that peptide drug targets may be beneficial as pharmacological agents for the treatment of both neurological and psychiatric conditions.

First detailed characterization of the Aβ immunoreactive deposits in these anti-NGF mice. A lot of questions were raised since the initial publication in PNAS a couple of years ago. In this paper, the changes are impressive but these are really not traditional Aβ deposits or amyloid plaques seen in either AD brains or in APP transgenic mice.

The correct and reliable estimation of wind erosion losses is important in the evaluation of erosion control systems (e.g. conservation tillage, chemical fallow, crop residue management, shelterbelts). However, until recently, quantifying soil losses from wind erosion in terms of weight of topsoil per unit area was not possible. Now, recently developed methods3 and field equipment are providing mechanisms to describe field erosion losses on a single storm basis.
Literature Review
In the past, wind erosion losses have been estimated by the Wind Erosion Equation7. The Wind Erosion Equation was derived in laboratory wind tunnels from measurement of basic physical processes in the 1960s. Field verification was not possible as field erosion measurement equipment was not available at that time. To investigate field wind erosion processes, information on meteorological variables, soil flux variables and temporal soil surface properties for individual erosion events is required. New equations have been developed to describe the vertical and horizontal components of soil mass flux during wind erosion events2,6. New methodologies for measuring temporal soil properties affecting erodibility have been reported8. These measurements and procedures will be needed to test the process-based Wind Erosion Prediction System (WEPS)4 which is being developed by the Agricultural Research Service of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA-ARS) and is set to replace the Wind Erosion Equation.
Study Description
The quantification of wind erosion losses was conducted at two WEPS validation sites near Lethbridge (Table 1) and on 14 monitoring and characterization sites in Alberta (Table 2). Once the WEPS model has been delivered, measured soil losses from the Lethbridge validation sites and the monitoring and characterization sites will be compared to WEPS-predicted losses.
Table 1. Dates and soil losses for 16 erosion events at WEPS Site 1 and 13 at WEPS Site 2
Table 2. Wind erosion monitoring and characterization sites in Alberta
In November 1990, WEPS Validation Site 1 was selected on a clay loam soil 15 km southeast of Lethbridge. A single, 200-m diameter circular plot was established on land that had been under zero tillage for six years. The objective of the site was to encourage erosion events and ascertain soil losses for the given set of soil surface conditions at the onset of each erosion event and the wind speeds occurring during the event. The site was tilled to bury residue and render the surface erodible. Thirteen clusters of soil collectors1 at 10-, 25-, 50- and 100-cm heights and meteorological instrumentation (wind speeds at four heights and wind direction) and a wind erosion sensor (SENSIT) were installed. Sixteen erosion events were monitored between April 1991 and May 1992 (Table 1). Using equations for vertical distribution of material moving in saltation and surface creep2,3 and horizontal distribution of material across an eroding surface3,6, soil losses from individual erosion events were calculated. Soil losses, wind speeds and soil surface conditions for these erosion events have been summarized and quantified previously5.
WEPS Validation Site 2 was established in April 1993 about 3 km from WEPS Site 1. Erosion was induced at Site 1 by over-cultivation. However, Site 2 was managed conventionally, being fallowed with a heavy-duty cultivator+rodweeder attachment (tillage on May 11, June 28 and August 2, 1993). Thirteen erosion events were monitored between February and April 1994 (Table 1).
The objective of the monitoring and characterization sites was to provide data on measured wind erosion losses for cropping systems typical of Alberta. These sites were essentially less sophisticated validation sites. They were usually set up in April/May and were managed by the producers in their normal fashion. No attempt was made to induce erosion. The sites were chosen to represent common management systems both on dryland and irrigated land. Wind erosion is a very apparent problem that occurs each spring on land to be seeded to irrigated specialty crops such as potatoes, pulses or sugar beets in southern Alberta.
The sites were rectangular in shape and established in fields that had a history of erosion or were deemed at high erosion risk. Four clusters of windblown sediment samplers (each cluster with samplers at 10-, 25-, 50- and 100-cm heights) were erected at each site on the downwind side of the erodible surfaces. At each site, surface soil samples (0 to 2.5 cm) were taken for aggregate size distribution analysis and this was related to soil loss.
Soil losses were calculated for each erosion event at each site using a modified version of the equations of Fryrear et al.3 Modifications were required to handle rectangular sites rather than circular ones. Since wind speeds were generally below normal for the period in question, the number of erosion events monitored was lower than anticipated. At Lethbridge, only three of the 60 months between January 1991 and December 1995 had mean monthly wind speeds which were above normal.
Major Findings
For the first time, actual soil losses due to wind erosion were calculated on a single storm basis. At WEPS Site 1, individual storm losses varied from 0.3 to 29 t/ha (Table 1). The total soil loss (152.2 t/ha) during the summerfallow period points to the fragility of the soil surface, after six years of continuous zero tillage. The loss is roughly equivalent to 15.2 mm of topsoil depth.
The magnitude of erosion losses was closely related to temporal soil properties. Precipitation events increased threshold wind velocities for the onset of erosion by crust formation and increased surface moisture. Management factors, such as seeding perpendicular to the prevailing wind, also increased threshold wind velocity. Based on the fastest rate of natural soil renewal reported for cultivated land, and assuming no further erosion occurred, it would take about 17 years to restore topsoil lost during this one injudiciously managed fallow period.
At WEPS Site 2, the first erosion event occurred on February 9, 1994 with two more on February 13 and 15, 1994 (Table 1). There was snow cover on the site from February 16 to 28. Air temperatures at Lethbridge increased from -33C on February 25 to +15C on March 1, resulting in rapid snowmelt and some ponding on the site. Even though high wind speeds were recorded on March 1 and 2, erosion did not occur due to the moist surface. Additionally, wind speeds were below normal at Lethbridge in early 1994. Mean monthly wind speeds were 13.8 km/h for January (normal 21.2 km/h); 17 km/h for February (normal 20.2 km/h); 15.7 km/h for April (normal 20.7 km/h); and 15.4 km/h for May 1994 (normal 19.3 km/h). However, the total loss of 56.6 t/ha (Table 1) is substantial considering that the land was conventionally fallowed rather than over-cultivated to induce erosion and that wind speeds were below normal.
Table 2 gives details of the 14 monitoring and characterization sites established in Alberta between 1991 and 1995. Dry aggregate size analysis (data not shown) revealed that all of the monitoring and characterization sites were at high erosion risk during the assessment period. Erosion losses at Retlaw (1992) were calculated as follows:
Wind speeds in spring 1993 were well below normal. At Lethbridge, the mean wind speed for April 1993 was 15.2 km/h versus the long-term average of 20.8 km/h. May had a mean speed of 15.1 km/h versus the long-term average of 19.3 km/h. Precipitation was also higher than normal especially in the Drumheller area. Consequently, wind erosion events were small and soil losses were negligible.
Two minor erosion events occurred at the Beiseker site on May 6 and 12, 1994. On May 24, 1994 the monitoring site was terminated as 50 mm of rainfall caused severe crusting which left the surface in a non-erodible condition. Two minor events were recorded at Turner Valley in 1995, where very high rainfall precluded major erosion losses.
In summary, soil losses were quantified intensively (WEPS validation sites) and less intensively (monitoring and characterization sites) for a range of Alberta cropping systems. These losses will be compared with WEPS-predicted losses when the model becomes available. When the Alberta research was initiated in 1990, the delivery of the WEPS model was imminent. However, some seven years later, the WEPS model has not been delivered by USDA-ARS.
Applied Questions
What do the soil losses measured in tonnes per hectare mean in terms of soil depth loss?
If we assume a soil bulk density of 1 Mg/m3, then 10 tonnes/ha soil loss is equal to 1 mm of soil depth. Therefore, at Site 1, the 152.2 tonnes/ha of soil loss over the fallow season translates into an average loss of 15.22 mm of topsoil over the entire hectare.
How can we use these measured soil loss values in the future?
The measured soil losses will be used to verify soil losses predicted by the WEPS model for the various soil management systems investigated. Models continuously require comparison with real data so that their output can be validated. If the measured and predicted losses are close, then it may be possible to use the model to predict losses over a larger area.

'Mixed feelings' as Tesco celebrates five years in Sheringham
PUBLISHED: 10:01 15 October 2018 | UPDATED: 10:43 15 October 2018
October 24 marks the fifth anniversary since Tesco opened in Sheringham after a 17-year planning battle. Karen Bethell spoke to traders and shoppers to find out what effect the store's arrival has had on the town and asked them what they thought the future held for Sheringham as a popular seaside resort and shopping destination.
Protesters against the multi-million pound, 14,000 sq ft store claimed the supermarket giant's arrival in the north Norfolk seaside resort would lead to shop closures and turn Sheringham into a 'clone town'.
Opposing campaign groups were set up, with Protesc supporters insisting a supermarket would bring benefits and Sheringham Campaign Against Major Retail Over-development (SCAMROD) members claiming it would have disastrous effects, leaving a ghost town in its wake with independent shops put out of business and only chain stores and charity shops able to survive.
A bitter dispute ensued, with a whole planning committee replaced because a councillor was a former Sheringham shopkeeper and protestors on both sides accused of 'dirty tricks', including vandalising cars and writing supporting letters with fabricated names and addresses.
After rejecting Tesco's plans four times, North Norfolk District Council planning officials finally voted in favour of the company in 2010, with a five-hour meeting resulting in a 7-7 split and the casting vote made by then development committee chairman Simon Partridge.
An application planners had previously approved for a rival scheme by eco-friendly group Greenhouse Community Project combining a Waitrose with a catering school on Weybourne Road, was thrown out, to the disgust of supporters of the scheme, whose founder, Clive Hay-Smith, stormed out of the meeting.
The supermarket giant's plans included building a walkway leading to the town centre, guaranteeing £1.3 million towards affordable housing to replace flats knocked down to make way for the Cromer Road store and building a new fire station and £2 million community centre.
Sheringham store manager Leon Egmore, who joined the company 15 years ago and previously ran Tesco branches in Newmarket, Fakenham and Diss, said the store was a "success story" that had enhanced community life and the local economy.
"We have 120 colleagues, all of whom are local people, so Tesco has brought jobs and careers to Sheringham," he said. "And, in a seasonal town, what is important is that those jobs give people year-round security."
Sheringham Tesco had also benefited local and national charities, Mr Egmore said, with £105,000 handed out in the north Norfolk area through the company's Bags of Help scheme, £30,000 raised in store for charity partnerships, and dozens of good causes collecting donations in the store entrance.
The store had also played an active role in the carnival, the 1940s weekend and Sheringham's Dementia Friendly Town scheme, supported Cromer and District Foodbank and local schools, offered work experience to service users at disability charity About With Friends, and provided a Christmas meal at the Morley Club.
Mr Egmore added that his aim had been to work with the community and said the arrival of Tesco had been a "win, win" move for Sheringham.
"We are a local store at the heart of the community and having a major supermarket here draws people here and keeps them here using the town centre facilities and shops," he said.
Sheringham Chamber of Trade and Commerce secretary Andy Bullen, who agreed to take a tour of the newly-opened store in 2013 saying it was "better the devil you know" and that traders were "ready for the fight", admitted to initially being against the idea of having a Tesco in Sheringham.
However, he felt that, overall, the arrival of the supermarket had not been as damaging to the town as he expected and said chamber members' concerns had been listened to, and acted on, during the planning process.
"I think the fact that the chamber made objections to certain aspects of the original plans has benefited traders, particularly in terms of having access to the town and providing free parking," he added. "And, to be fair, Tesco has supported events in the town, they have tried to be part of the business community, and, in all honesty, they have contributed much more to Sheringham than some of the other large chains we have here."
"Sheringham definitely hasn't turned into a ghost town"
Mervyn Thomas, who opened Craft Bakery, in High Street, 18 years ago, sells more than 500 loaves and up to 7,000 bread rolls a day to retail and wholesale customers, including Byfords and Bakers and Larners, of Holt.
He said that before Tesco opened, he was concerned about the impact the supermarket might have on his business.
"I must admit I was worried," he said, "But although I know some businesses say they have been affected, I can't say I have."
Mr Thomas, whose son and daughter-in-law run Bond Street Bakery and Huckleberry's café, in Cromer, said he felt Tesco had been good for the town, increasing footfall and bringing additional parking spaces.
He added: "People fought and fought against it, but we're all still here, we still have two butchers, two greengrocers and two bakers; Sheringham definitely hasn't turned into a ghost town and what is interesting is that a lot of people who said they would never go to Tesco do shop there."
Parking a major issue for town traders
Bill Hartland, who has a haberdashery stall on Sheringham market, which runs on Wednesdays and Saturdays on Sheringham's main Station Road car park, said that before the arrival of Tesco, parking had been a major issue for his fellow traders.
"You will always get mixed feelings, but I think people are sick and tired of paying £1.50 an hour to park here, so I think Tesco has actually improved the market by bringing free parking to the town," he said.
Mr Hartland, who has been trading in Sheringham for the past 39 years and was chairman of the now defunct Sheringham Market Traders Association, added: "I think Tesco is in the centre of town where it should be, it's the right size and it's been a good thing for the town."
"Personal service" keeps independent traders thriving
Martin Rowe, who owns M and J Butchers, in Church Street, said he had been concerned about Tesco opening in Sheringham, but, in the event, his business wasn't affected.
"At the time, I certainly didn't think it was a positive thing," he explained. "I had heard a lot of stories of gloom and doom about other towns like Stalham, but I think that because Sheringham is a seaside town, it makes a difference, we have lots of local people and visitors who like the independent shops and the personal service they get there."
