Dirty medicine down under
November 21st 2017, 11:15
I am writing this column some 40,000 feet above Indonesia, bound from Sydney, Australia, to London. After a tight schedule of meetings following the second annual Lifestyle Medicine Australasia conference, I presented on the subject of healthcare sustainability.
Australia, like all former British colonies, has a checkered history of human rights. Despite apologies on behalf of previous governments to its indigenous peoples, much of the pain and damage can't be repaired, as it extends too far and runs too deep. Up until the 1980s, kids in school learned a good deal more about the kings and queens of England than they did about how their ancestors, whether rulers or convicts, built a new nation while wittingly or unwittingly decimating pre-existing Aboriginal populations along with much of their culture.
Progress on this front was evident by the presence of an Aboriginal flag, alongside the ever-present Australian national flag, over the doorway to the entrance of the hotel that hosted the conference. Furthermore, the conference was opened by a well-known member of the Aboriginal community, Ann Weldon, on behalf of the Aboriginal people of Australia.
Aunty Ann, as she is often fondly referred to, told the assembled 450 or so doctors and healthcare professionals that the word 'disabled' does not exist in her Wiradjuri language. If someone is blind, she said, those who can see act as the blind person's eyes. If someone can't walk, he or she will be carried. Aboriginal people, like all indigenous people, understand connection with nature, as well as among each other. They recognize the need for higher purpose. The Western world has strayed a long way from this approach to life, health and social care. It doesn't appear to have made us any happier, and despite all the technology, the billions spent on research and our deepening understanding of the diseases that plague us, we don't appear to be any closer to having a successful or sustainable healthcare model.
Admittedly, there have been some big gains, like lower rates of infant mortality and deaths from infectious diseases. But you would be hard-pressed to say we've got the big killer diseases like heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity, along with a host of mental health issues, under control.
We need to ask ourselves: should we continue to side-line longstanding health and social traditions that involve an intimate connection with the world around us, and hope that our technological model of healthcare will soon discover magic bullets for the chronic diseases and mental health challenges that are otherwise set to catastrophically destabilize our societies and economies? Or should we do what we can to restore these traditional systems, allow them to flourish and learn from them ourselves?
This, in my view, brings us to the real crux of the healthcare debate. Before we even start arguing the merits of different medical treatments, whether or not we're prioritizing disease prevention, the lack of hospital beds or funding of healthcare services, we need to address the elephant in the room. Current-day Australia, having been built on convict foundations, is a place full of rules. Ironically, however, like many Americans, Australians are among the first to celebrate the liberal nature of their society and all of its associated freedoms. Yet in very important ways, those freedoms have already been lost.
Aborigines have had most of their favored lands taken from them. Those lands now support thriving cities supporting the most urbanized population in the world, along with robust agriculture and mining industries. But non-Aboriginal Australians are also losing their freedoms.
Take the Australian Federal Government's coercive 'No Jab No Pay' law, which forces anyone who needs to claim benefits into vaccinating their children. It creates conflict not only for citizens, but also for doctors, who have an obligation to obtain consent before vaccination. For consent to be legally valid, it must be given voluntarily in the absence of undue pressure, coercion or manipulation. That's hardly the case for the 46 or so vaccinations, including genetically modified ingredients and neurotoxic adjuvants, that make up the full children's and adolescents' vaccination schedule.
Coming back to the elephant, the loss of Australians' freedom to express themselves appears unique in the Western world. A system has evolved in which individuals or organizations who even raise the subject of vaccination choice are attacked, vilified or even issued with death threats. This process is enacted covertly, and the puppeteers who orchestrate the hate campaigns against those who raise the debate are largely invisible. The net effect is that vaccination has become a taboo akin to the previous denial of genocide by Australia's early colonizers.
People must now speak out. Free-thinking Australians need to link arms with Americans, Europeans and others to shine a light on this issue.
It is essential as a matter of public debate anywhere in the world, that we determine whether or not a full vaccination schedule represents the best preventative medical care for our children.

Lemme get this straight- Elizabeth Vargas was pregnant, and her co-anchor just got BLOWN UP for following the news…..
If I were her husband, I would have knocked her up TWICE just to keep her home instead of going off to places to get BLOWN UP!
But the question is bigger than her, right? CAN women be mothers and pursue careers at the same time?
Single moms don't have much choice, do they- but:
Are working moms self-centered, wanna-be men, procreators who don't REALLY love their kids?
Are Stay-At-Home moms useless throw-backs with no lives who are holding their gender back and can be replaced by minimum-wage immigrants?
Seems like a no-win situation- Unless you DON'T CARE what other people think.
But I have the solution: DON'T HAVE KIDS!! THAT'S THE SOLUTION!!!!!
Just imagine how COOOOOOL everything would be if there were no kids:
Rap Music wouldn't need those parental advisory stickers!
Disneyworld would be like VEGAS!
Porn would be on BROADCAST TV!
Ok, ok- if you've seen CHILDREN OF MEN, you know that a world with no kids would be DEPRESSING. So, I'm just kidding.
Here's my take:
A Great deal of people are working because they NEED THE MONEY.
If a family doesn't need the money, then have someone stay home- mom or dad.
If you do- then someone has to work, right?
Who knows what's better? There will NEVER be a "right" answer, so YOU must choose what's right for you.
I say we let everyone make their choice, and help them however we can.

One of the more worrying aspects of the MLM industry is people racking up long term ongoing debts they cannot pay.
As anyone in the industry will tell you running a MLM business successfully requires an ongoing monetary investment. Leads arent just going to fall into your lap and more often then not, be it via direct purchase, advertising or just talking to

This is something on which I have been meaning to write for years, indeed a decade, and I just could not delay it any further. You may think that that I had been searching all around me to find something to write on and I could finally pick only such a trivial matter, finally, and I am giving a post-facto justification. You may not be wrong; but, please bear with me.
I do not know how many of you have followed the current edition of IPL, Vivo IPL 2018. But, no matter, any exposure to any edition of IPL is good enough to make sense of the senseless statistics that one seen on the tv screen. It goes something like this.
The batting side has made in 6 overs and 2 balls, say, 47 runs, for the loss of 2 wickets. The tv screen has a nice graphic proclaiming that the batting team would make, at "current run rate" 148 runs, at 8 runs an over for the remaining overs, 156, and at 10 runs an over for the remaining overs, 184 runs (rounding off to the higher integer, if you wish to be precise, damn accuracy).
It all looks impressive on the tv screen. But, it is simply and averaging out for an arbitrarily assumed run rate for the remaining overs. There is no compulsion on the batting team to stick to any integral value (like 8 or 10, the IPL statistics team chews out) for the remaining balls/overs. For all the continuous blabbering of the tv "experts", it just does not strike anyone that things like the total the team makes depends on wickets falling, catches dropped, misfields, free hits and on and on.
Note also that, for the case at hand, say one of the batsmen gets out on the 39th ball, not much changes in the so-called "projected runs" at such-and-such runs per remaining overs. In that case, it is 155 for 8 runs an over, 182 for 10 runs an over, and most impresssively – 145 runs at the "current" run rate. That is, the wicket is worth no more than 4 runs in the aggregate.
Yes, I am aware that, in T20, results change on a dime. But, be honest, and tell me whether you have ever heard the captain/coach of the losing side saying they were 2 runs short. Never; it has always been "15 or 20 runs". If that be so, does it make any sense at all in the so-called statistics, obviously endorsed by the commentators and "experts", to keep track of "projected score" ball-by-ball? It is a big eye-wash, just to show some activity, not on the field, but on the tv screen. But, how many of the "millions" who watch has noticed this idiocy. I did, the very first time, I thought about it and that was, I think 10 editions ago.
Statistics is when you have reasonably large set of data, and learning from prior knowledge (Bayesian), and making sense of the situation. Real experts are good at it. But, these pseudo-experts on IPL tv screens would do better to stay away from it all.
That is for spotting idiocy whenever and wherever it raises its head. That is, even at the risk of thumping my chest or more modestly, patting myself on the back, is scientific temper.

The intent of this research was to explore the phenomenon of remote area nursing in relation to a theoretical framework, the SUN Conceptual Model. A Theory-Research-Theory strategy was chosen in order to modify, refine or redevelop the model. Using a descriptive, interpretive design, a sample of eight Remote Area Nurses (RANs) in Western Australia were asked to describe their experiences of remote area nursing. The data were collected by telephone interview. Themes were extrapolated and categorised according to key concepts of the previously developed model. Common components of significant statements were identified in order to gain understanding of the meanings of responses. Analysis revealed that some overlap existed between the original key concepts of the model which were subsequently regrouped or made redundant. This process culminated in a revision of the original model. The revised SUN Conceptual Model was thus considered to be a useful theoretical framework for reflecting the reality of remote area nursing, as supported by the literature. Study findings point to the need for more research to further examine the model as a theoretical framework for RAN practice and to identify factors which contribute to the effectiveness of RANs. The study provides a contribution to the knowledge base of RANs while moving towards the development of a theoretical framework which may be included in education programmes and ultimately practice.

I'm a big fan of No Man's Sky. I liked the ideas Sean Murray threw out in his initial presentations. I liked the concept of a practically infinite space exploration game. We'd already seen games built around similar concepts, but the direction of No Man's Sky set it apart from other games.
Unlike other games in the steadily growing procedurally generated space exploration genre (or what I like to call PROGSEX), No Man's Sky is a true sandbox. You can do whatever you want in it. And with the NEXT update, it's turned into an entirely different game altogether.

Choire Destroyed My Art Career
I have to break my silence: Choire Sicha is an art-career buster. Like a cheap extra in a vampire flick, he chewed up my paintings willy-nilly and spat them out like so much stale Bubble Yum—I mean, literally. That man (if you can call such a monster a man!) gnawed his way through all my best work like a red-hot knife through butter, like termites boring through wood—yes, like white on rice! And you thought he was "part owner of a Chelsea art gallery"? Hah!!! Call it an abattoir! I stand ruined, my paintings cocked-up with chaw marks and saliva, my inventory, once shiny as a new penny, a gastrointestinal débâcle, my spirit

Question: blot clot in hand/wrist
|brokenseraph - Sat Oct 27, 2007 7:13 pm
Share |
Hi I am a 28 yo female who has had autoimmune symptoms for a year. I had a rather large PE in my right lung in may and have been on warfarin ever since. I recently got labs checked and was iron deficent and my INR was at 1.5. They increased my warfarin and placed me on iron tablets.
They took blood and ran an IV in the large vein in my wrist that runs towards my thumb up the side.
It has been 4 days or so and I have had what appears to be clot in my wrist. You can feel that the vein is huge and it snaps back and forth when you very lightly glide your hand across the area. Also a large knot pops up on my hand periphrial to the vein, and appears to be effected by when I use the wrist. (it comes and goes) I figured I don't need to worry since it is a superficial vein but yikes it hurts like crazy, sometimes enough to make me have to sit and focus the pain away.
I don't want to be eating NSAIDS or pain killers if I do not have to, and due to the interactions with my warfarin. Should I worry about this? or is it common for superficial clots to hurt pretty badly?
I get nervous due to my history and have an appointment in a few days but ow! What will help?
|Dr. Chan Lowe - Fri Nov 02, 2007 12:58 pm

Hi Brokenseraph,
What you may be experiencing in the vein in your hand is thromboplebitis. This is a condition where the vein becomes inflamed due to a blood clot in the vein.
If you have not been evaluated for clotting problems (ones that make you more likely to clot) I would strongly recommend this. Possibilities include Factor Five Leiden, Prothrombin 20210, and Lupus anticoagulant among others. I would be very suspicious that you have one of these conditions. For most, the treatment is the same as you are doing now but knowing what the cause is is important because it can have implications for future issues.
Using some warm compresses may help your pain some as well. Tylenol is safe to take with warfarin.
Best wishes.

Okay, first let me say how honored and excited I am about being a part of this great movement! Just a little story about how this came to life. There was a post on Facebook requesting a blogger to blog for an upcoming event and I immediately jumped on it. The founder of this organization and I communicated back and forth and I have the opportunity to be a guest blogger. I immediately mentioned to her that I wanted to do an interview with her and she said okay with no hesitation. So I immediately prepped a few questions to ask her regarding her vision and goal for the upcoming event.
Me: Good morning Victoria. Where did the idea of The Confessions of a Lady come from?
Victoria: The idea came from JESUS. It was given to me in the midst of things that I was going through in life. I was being cast aside. Looked down upon. Being a victim of physical and mental abuse. No one gave me any chances to come out of any situation. I fell in a deep depression stage and attempted suicide many times. But, in the midst of it all I still prayed to God harder than I ever have in life. Then I came to a realization that there was an issue and I had to face it head on. Through it all, I was still determined to be a BETTER PERSON and OVERCOME my battles.
Me: What does imperfectly perfect mean and how can someone identify themselves as such?
Victoria: The background scripture of this comes from Psalm 139:14 - I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. Don't allow people to tell you who you are. We are all made differently by God! Your imperfections makes you perfect.
Me: What is your vision behind the event?
Victoria: My vision behind the event is to bring awareness to the open eye and let women know that they can get out. You are worth something. You are worth your life, health, children, and so much more. Some women get the opportunity to leave domestic issues and some don't. It doesn't matter how the abuse come, sexually, verbally, physically, and mentally. It's one thing to read a book versus to actually face the issue hands on. You have to confess and face your issues. We live in a culture where we have to deal with things and say nothing about it. But it's time for something to be said and for it to be heard.
Me: Just a couple of more questions and I'm done...lol. How did you choose your speakers?
Victoria: Well, Starnisha Washington, I met through a mutual person and her story was just amazing. She is an advocate for working in the community and helping women and she has just inspired me so much. She has a story that needs to be told! Erika Evans is powerhouse Psalmist and is known for her talent. She can't sing, she can SANG! She has a sweet spirit and I love her dearly.
Me: Last question. What is your goal to achieve from this event?
Victoria: To introduce my organization "The Confessions of a Lady" and to bring awareness to the open eye. I am not taking on any position of being ordained but I want to help the next woman out and encouraged them. Abuse can come from any angles in life and no deserves to be abused.
Me: Well, Victoria, I thank you for your time and I can't wait to attend the event on the February 20th. Thank you so much for your time and have a wonderful day.
Victoria: You too love!
That interview, clearly gave me LIFE because I have been in a place of where I wanted to give up on life as well. Little do we know, we are ALL connected some kind of way in life.
I mentioned to Victoria that not only do I support her vision, but I want to bless a young lady to be able to attend the event. So we will be doing a one-day giveaway to SPONSOR a ticket for a young lady that wants to attend. Stay tuned for that! I think this is great what she is doing and something as such need to be supported in a POSITIVE way!
I want to thank Victoria Long for this opportunity and I look forward to working with her on many more projects to come in the near future.
Until next time,

I love prayer. Outside of my "scheduled" prayer times, I also pray at random moments throughout the day, when I feel the urge to. For me, prayer is being (consciously and actively) in the presence of God – it's talking and listening to God. So I say things and I keep quiet too and listen. Khalil Gibran in The Prophet describes prayer as "an expansion of self into the living ether…" I understand that – because when I pray, I sense that I am much more than this body, this life that contains me… I know I am "uncontainable". ;- )*
Danielle LaPorte shares the wisdom that she has gathered from her many visits to a Benedictan monastery and I quote her here:
"Prayer holds the first place in a monk's day and nothing must be preferred to this activity.
Prayer involves coming into contact with divine life
and openness to the mystery of love which is written in our hearts".
I want, I desire to pray more and more.
(Have I heard it said that your very life can be a prayer? Meaning…?)
As the week begins beloveds, I wish you prayer if your soul craves it. Prayer does shift things, open doors, inspire things, answer stuff, "move mountains", bring rain… and the list goes on ;- )*
Love, love, m
P.S: beloveds, if I can pray for you or with you over anything, please let me know. My email: tomutheu[at]yahoo.com
P.S2: If you pray, what is prayer for you? What has been your experience of it? I would love, love to hear!

Summer Music Festivals: Finding a WiFi Connection
Post date: July 24, 2017
Summer music festivals are definitely the events that many people look forward to. Although there is not much comfort provided (in particular, a probability of poor weather conditions, the lack of showers, and poor accommodations), one of the top priorities for the visitors is the chance of finding a WiFi connection. However, these could be dangerous connections; therefore, we want to make you aware of this issue and inform you how to take advantage of free WiFi hotspots in the safest way possible.
What Are the Risks of Free WiFi Connection?
Who doesn't want to enjoy free WiFI connection and always be able to send new photos or videos from the concert to their friends who are bored at home; or who wouldn't like to boast on Instagram how excited they are about the concert? Despite the number of obvious pluses you get, there are definitely solid reasons why you'd better avoid free hotspots.
How these hotspots can be created:
- The connection can be shared by some generous individual who is willing to offer access to his WiFi;
- A hotspot may be created by some individual who has his own benefits in sharing WiFi with others: using your passwords, reading your messages, using your banking information, etc.
However, there is a possibility to spot such dangerous WiFi connections and thus to protect yourself.
Many hotspots require registration before using the free Internet. In particular, you might be asked for your full name, age, phone number, and email address. This information you provide may be also sold to the marketers, and from that time on you will be receiving different advertisements and strange letters on your email. Therefore, if you really want to protect your data, create a separate email that could be used for different registrations.
Besides, according to some statistics, 25% of free hotspots used at such public gatherings are a lure to hackers. It might surprise you at first, but actually, it's easier than you have ever thought. By providing a free WiFi connection, hackers can easily get access to your private information.

I don't want to die you know; not ever!
Despite the pain that living life may bring.
Despite the promise of a peaceful heaven
For I must yet discover everything.
I have not known the feeling of true hate.
There is no person living that I despise.
Nor do I have an inkling of my fate
So I do hope there is some sweet surprise.
War raised in me grave doubts to overcome,
For man must have good purpose in his life.
I've had bad times and I have had some fun;
Long precious moments with my loving wife.
What's left to know, I guess before I die,
Is God dear God, please tell me why oh why!

From The Socialist newspaper, 7 May 2008
Mark Thomas condemns witch-hunt
Comedian and investigative journalist Mark Thomas has recently sent this message to Onay Kasab:
"I know Onay Kasab - Kas. I have had the privilege of working with him on the Ilisu Dam Campaign and on the issue of trade unionist deaths in Colombia. To accuse him of being racist is utter stupidity and madness. If using the image of three monkeys is racist then Gandhi is racist, Steve Bell and every working cartoonist for the past fifty years working in every continent are racists...those who brought this charge need to take a lie down in a quiet room, possibly with whale music playing and get a rest or they need to acknowledge their actions are motivated by other factors.
I know for a fact Kas is a dedicated and hard working union member who puts in remarkable time and energy. He exemplifies the very best traditions of trade unions, tireless, principled and open to debate, willing to fight for what he believes in but always ready to listen to other points of view.
Kas is happier to form an alliance than make an enemy over petty sectarian issues or spiteful office politics. If Kas is disciplined for having the audacity for asking for debate... a terrible crime I have to confess, after all what is trade unionism but abject obedience... Unison will be the loser, trade unionism will be the loser and the winners will be the Sun, the Mail, the spiteful hacks who will scream 'political correctness gone mad', the winners will the forces of conservatism (as David Blunkett said), the winners will be the right wing. Kas describes the actions against him of being a witch hunt... will there be an investigation into the use of the word 'witch' , after all this is a word that has gender bias inherently within it, witches were burnt for their gender and women have been accused of being witches in negative contexts for centuries... I demand justice, stop the use of the word 'witch-hunt'!"

The Gregory Lab
Dr. Richard Gregory is a Principal Investigator at Children's Hospital Boston and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology at Harvard Medical School.
Richard I. Gregory, Ph.D., is Professor in the Departments of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, and Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, and Principal Investigator in The Stem Cell Program in the Division of Hematolgy/Oncology at Boston Children's Hospital. He is also Principal faculty member of The Harvard Stem Cell Institute, and co-Director and executive committee member of the Harvard Initiative for RNA Medicine.
Dr. Gregory received a Ph.D. from Cambridge University in 2001, and his postdoctoral work was performed at the Fox Chase Cancer Center and the Wistar Institute, Philadelphia. Dr. Gregory's postdoctoral research focused on mechanisms of miRNA biogenesis and function, and was supported by a Jane Coffin Childs Research Fellowship. Since its establishment in 2006 research in the Gregory laboratory has focused on understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms controlling RNA biogenesis and decay and exploring the relevance of these pathways in stem cell pluripotency, mammalian development, and human disease. He was named a Pew Scholar, and a March of Dimes Basil O'Connor Scholar. He was Chair of the RNA mechanisms in cancer study section of the American Cancer Society, and is currently member of the scientific review council of the Pershing Square Cancer Research Alliance, and fellowship award selection committee of the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation. Dr. Gregory is committed to exploiting the basic knowledge of RNA regulatory pathways for the discovery and development of new and effective therapies for cancer and for cancer and other diseases.
Gregory Lab Research Summary:
The laboratory research focus is to understanding mechanisms of RNA regulation in stem cells and disease. Our specialized research program bridges RNA biochemistry, stem cells, and cancer research and represents an innovative strategy and unique expertise that promises to provide fundamental mechanistic insight into the posttranscriptional control of miRNAs, messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), as well as to identify new therapeutic opportunities for human disease including cancer. We use embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and human cancer cell lines that are amenable to applying large-scale biochemical-, genetic-, and cell biological approaches to help elucidate these mechanisms. These developmentally regulated embryonic pathways can be reactivated in cancer where they promote oncogenesis.
Our ongoing and future work falls into three main areas: 1) Elucidating mechanisms of miRNA biogenesis and function in ESCs. 2) Studying the molecular, cellular, and developmental role of a newly identified ncRNA quality control pathway. 3) Exploring the mechanisms and relevance of the 'epitranscriptome' in stem cells and cancer. As pioneers studying several disease-relevant RNA-binding proteins and ribonucleases the lab is uniquely poised to make fundamental and groundbreaking discoveries that impact ESC biology, development, growth, and cancer. The lab is committed to exploiting the basic knowledge of RNA regulatory pathways for the discovery and development of new and effective therapies for cancer and for cancer and other diseases.

Over the past 25 years,the Workers'Compensation Premium Recovery Service Has produced Workers Compensation Premium Refunds in excess Of $60,000,000.00 for clients based on Insurance Company Errors.
Here are the main reasons why companies do Not Receive Workers Compensation Premium Refunds:
Verifying the accuracy of the insurance carrier's bill is a time-consuming task that requires field-specific expertise.
Millions of dollars are lost every year because companies, brokers & agents simply do not have the in house expertise to analyze expired policies and audits for mistakes and overcharges in a number of areas such as:
Experience Rating, Claims Payments & Reserves, Errors in Classifications, Accounting & Billing, etc.
There is no up front charge for this service if qualified.

The Controller's Office has made dramatic improvements in the amount of time necessary to process 1099 tax forms, with the help of the Office of Continuous Improvement (OCI), says Ed Verhamme, accounts payable manager. "It was a team effort," he says. A group of seven staffers, representing three different departments in the Controller's Office, partnered with OCI to develop more efficient processes.
Improvements in the way vendor names were entered into the Banner software, for example, resulted in a reduction of review hours from 195 in 2010 to 28 in 2011.

Opinion by Richard Baird.
Blackhorse Lane Ateliers is a UK-based premium selvedge and organic raw denim jeans brand. It was founded in 2016 by Han Ates, who has over 25 years experience in the textiles industry, and is located in a renovated 1920s factory building with a distinctive profile in Walthamstow, North London. Blackhorse Lane Ateliers is committed to implementing a sustainable and ethical production model. This began with with the growing of Japanese Indigo in their factory allotment, the use of organic materials, using denim woven in Europe and a lifetime repair policy. StudioSmall worked with Han on developing brand identity, this included logo design, packaging, labelling and e-commerce website.
Drawing on the distinctive structural profile of the factory, StudioSmall's logo design finds a neat balance between premise and its history, garment patterns and an industrial / utilitarian quality. It is a smart use of form, effectively leveraging some universal associations, makes for a neat heat stamped leather label and works equally well as solid or outline versions.
Visual identity is largely logo-centric, with symbol paired with a similarly weighted monolinear sans-serif Calibre, and reproduced consistently and effectively, large and small, across a variety of contexts, which include jean labels, tags, buttons, box tape and website.
Stationery and tags reflect the brand's sustainable positioning in the choice of recycled, uncoated and unbleached boards, contribute to and balance a sense of both craft and utility, while metal signage compliments the industrial heritage of the site and its iconic shape.
All this continues through to the website, in its build, use of type, cool grey background and photography of interior factory setting and team members. Although visual identity is simple, it is loaded with association, and given further value by an online presence that provides plenty of brand insight.

"Put dullness to rest. This night cream is fortified with a system of time-released resurfacers, minerals, moisture-rich replenishers, and vitamins C, E, and H to refresh and support naturally radiant morning skin. Relaxing aromas lull you to sleep and dry, dead layers slough away leaving skin looking bright and feeling refreshed."
I have had this cream for a while, the big jar is actually empty, which means I finished it all. Then I got a smaller size and decided to review it for you guys, because I had the actual cream to take pictures of and all that stuff. For a long time, I wanted to try this out and I got lucky to get to try it out with using my Sephora beauty points. It came with a couple different Origins products and this was one of them.
This Renewal Cream comes in a dark brown glass jar. It's a rich cream, feels thick and creamy yet smooth and very easy to spread out on the skin. It has a very refreshing, orange citrus scent. I absolutely love the smell. A little bit of this goes a long way and it can cover my whole face and neck. It's very moisturizing but didn't leave my skin feeling oily at all. I think dry skins like me will like this, but I'm not sure about oily skins, because this can feel a little too thick for them but it all just depends on the person. This didn't irritate my skin or anything at first. It was all great and my skin loved it. I think it was not even one third of the product left, that it started to break me out. I don't think it was because of this particular cream though. I say that because my skin became super sensitive and a lot of face moisturizers are maybe too much for it. Too much vitamins and stuff in the face moisturizers seem to break me out. It's weird, I know but anyways. I suggest getting a sample of this before actually purchasing the full size. I do that now, because I know how sensitive my skin is and also, I hate buying something and having to go though the trouble of returning it.
Overall, my initial reaction to this was really good. My skin got a lot of moisture from this as well as felts brightened because of the Vitamin C in it. The smell is amazing and it's very refreshing but not energizing to not be appropriate to use at night. I really liked it. Now I have the smaller size but since I have very sensitive skin now, I can't use this. I started using this on my upper arms, because there's not much left of it to give it away to someone else to use, and one thing I noticed is that, I have some acne scars on my upper arms that started to lighten when I used this on them. So it's not going to waste, but I wont be purchasing this again because of my sensitive skin.
Have you tried this Renewal Cream from Origins? What are your thoughts on it?
Don't forget to G+1 and follow my blog for more reviews to come. I'm always happy to have more blogging friends!
Lots of love,

More than 100 lay people persecuted for their faith in Korea are among those advancing towards canonisation.
In a decree on 7 February, Pope Francis authorised the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints to promulgate the causes of the Korean Catholics as well as a bishop, a religious Sister, and two priests who are in the various stages of the canonisation process.
Layman Paul Yun Ji-chung, along with 123 others who lived in Korea between 1791 and 1888, have been recognised as martyrs for their refusal to renounce their faith.
"The beatification of the Korean martyrs is great news for the Korean Church. I am full of joy and I thank the Holy See for such a decision," Archbishop of Seoul, Msg Andrew Yeom Soo-jung, who is a newly appointed cardinal, said.
"Looking at the history, the Korean martyrs are great models of holiness who crossed the barriers of social status and loved their neighbour without gender discrimination, social class, religion. They were promoters of human rights and had an important role in the history of the entire Korean nation."
In an interview with Fides, Mgr Yeom, said that those who want to follow the example of the martyrs are called to embrace and cherish each other in order to make the world a better, more just and more fraternal place.
He thanked all those in Korea who have shown interest in this event, especially the government, and all communities and sectors of society, including non-Christians.
The beatification of the Korean martyrs is to take place on 15 August and there are increased hopes that Pope Francis might visit Korea for this occasion as well as taking up a longstanding invitation to attend the opening day of the Asian Youth Day, on 13 August.
Yun Ji-chung came from a noble family and converted to Catholicism at the age of 28. He encouraged his mother and other family members to convert as well.
In 1790, three years after his baptism, Yun Ji-chung opposed the authorities by rejecting the use of Confucian ancestral rites for his mother's funeral, saying that such rites were irrational. He was beheaded on 8 December 1791 at the age of 32.
Paul Yun Ji- chung and 123 companions were proclaimed Servants of God in 2003 by John Paul II. Their story spans from 1785 until 1882, a period in which more than 10,000 Catholics were killed.
Their story is considered an inspiration and a source of renewal for the Church in Korea that dedicates the month of September to worship and to pilgrimage to the places of martyrdom.
Another martyr, Franciscan priest Fr Francesco Zirano, was recognised with the title, Servant of God. Killed in 1603 in Algiers, Fr Zirano had travelled there in an attempt to rescue his cousin who had been captured by pirates and made a slave.
Fr Zirano was beaten and put into prison soon after his arrival. Due to a case of mistaken identity, the priest was sentenced to death. He refused to renounce his faith and spent his last days encouraging the other Christians in prison.
The pronouncement of "heroic virtue" has been made for three others who died in the last century: Jesus Maria Echavarria y Aguirre, Bishop of Saltillo, Mexico and founder of the Catechist Sisters of Guadalupe, died in 1954; Fr Faustino Ghilardi of the Order of Friars Minor, who died in 1937; and Sr Maria Rocio of Jesus Crucified, who belonged to the Congregation of the Sisters of the Love of God and died in 1956.

American Flags near Wood River Junction.
Proudly Made in the USA!
How did the American flag turn into exactly what it is today?
Folding up the American flag.
The American flag is a solid symbol of American identity and also national pride. Also called Old Glory, the American flag has a vivid background as well as has gone through numerous adjustments since the very first official flag of 1777.
Today the flag consists of thirteen horizontal stripes, 7 red alternating with six white stripes. The shades of the flag are symbolic as well: red symbolizes strength as well as valiance, white represents purity as well as virtue as well as blue stands for vigilance, willpower and also justice.
Gradually, some have attributed slightly different meanings to the 3 shades, for instance, the shade red representing the blood spilled to preserve our liberty, but the essence of the initial meaning has been fairly constant from 1782.
How did the American flag turn into what it is today?
It is a lot greater than the 3 colors or a "decor". Consider the locations around the world that the American flag has actually flown, think of the improvement it has undergone throughout the decades on American land. It is really humbling to think of all that was provided and also compromised to ensure that the American flag can fly freely across this nation.
The flag that began with just 13 stars expanded to 50 with the addition of new states to the Union. The variety of stars on the flag progressively rose to its present number today in which a new star would be included in the blue field on the 4th of July after the date of each new state's admission.
The number of rotating straight red and also white stripes has continued to be at thirteen except from 1795 to 1818 when fifteen stripes appeared on the flag to note the admission of Kentucky and also Vermont to the Union. In 1818, it was determined that including a stripe to the flag for each new state would no longer take place as it will certainly make the flag look crowded as well as it would certainly make the flag unwieldy. It was decided then that the flag would certainly return to having only thirteen stripes to represent the initial colonies.
The American flag is a symbol not just of strength, valiance, purity, innocence, vigilance, determination and justice; it is a symbol of liberty. Liberty that has been combatted so hard for over the decades. Liberty that has actually cost this country and the households within a lot, and yet it is still a sign to those desiring they had the freedom that the country has.
Folding the American flag.
Typical flag etiquette suggests that before an American flag is kept or raised, its handlers need to twice fold it in half lengthwise; after that (from the other end opposite the blue area) make a triangular fold, continuing to fold it in a triangular patter until the other end is reached. This makes a triangular "cushion" of the flag with just heaven starred area showing on the outside, and also it takes thirteen folds to produce: 2 lengthwise folds and also eleven triangular ones.
The flag isn't folded up in this manner due to the fact that each of the folds has a special symbolic definition; the flag is folded in this manner due to the fact that it gives a sensible ritualistic touch that differentiates folding a flag from folding a normal object such as a bedsheet, and since it results an aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-handle shape. This thirteen-fold procedure was an usual method long prior to the development of a ritualistic assignation of "suggesting" to every of the steps.
An elaborate flag folding event including these significances has from then on been created for special occasions such as Memorial Day as well as Veterans Day. These meanings are "real" in the feeling that they indicate something to the people who join the ceremony, but they are not the reason a flag is folded in the typical thirteen-step way.
This is America and also its icon is the American Flag. Also though lots of Americans near Rhode Island state happily fly the flag outside their residences and also companies every day, it is suitable that we, as a country, have actually set aside one specific day each year to honor our flag and also to remember that it represents the perfects and also worths that we ought to make every effort to maintain.

Well we finally made it to the gorgeous Whitsunday Islands & are really loving relaxing on the pure white sandy shores of Whitehaven Beach and snorkelling in the clear waters of Butterfly bay. With names like Daydream island how can we go wrong? The whitsundays are perfect for moving anchorage everyday and just taking it easy for a while. I've been showing Jimmy around as it was here almost seven years ago that I first discovered sailing while working on a charter boat trying to make cash to keep on backpacking! Nothing has changed and we've found ourselves anchored next to my old rivals & making fun of all the tourists in their very unattractive sting suits (they have to wear them because of the jelly fish).....Ingvil pointed out that they look a lot like Tele Tubbies going for a swim.
We celebrated Norwegian Independence day, 17th May, with a trip to Airlie Beach on the main land and Back packer central. The bars were packed and we partied the night away with hundreds of happy drunken people, the down side is that we're still trying to recover. It was this day last year that we arrived in the Marquesas after 25 days at sea, I can't believe how quickly the time has flown by. The plan now is to finish up some work on the boat as we have to stitch sails, brew some more beer and top up on fuel and water. We've had beautiful hot sunny days for over a month now so fingers crossed it keeps up and we can make a jump up to Magnetic island in the next couple of days. From there we'll move on up to Hitchinbrook and island hop up the coast to cape york, hopefully stopping along the way to get in some dives on the Barrier reef.
With over 140 boats now signed up for the Indonesian rally everyone we meet seems to be on the same schedule as us and from what we can tell there's going to be a lot of socializing and a lot of fun to come!! Check out the rally web site on the links up above.
Vacation Time!
Saturday 10th May
The past three weeks have been hectic, we've sailed over 300 Nautical Miles spending no more than two nights in any one place until reaching the Keppel Islands and all with Jimmy's mum on board! Pat flew into Brisbane on the 21st March with over 150lb of spare parts, new clothes, bottles of rum, DVD's and player, Girl scout cookies (delicious biscuits sold in the states by the Girl Guides- for those non Americans), New shoes, hundreds of zip lock bags (very important on a boat) and much, much more. After all that what space was left she managed to squeeze in a few clothes for herself!
We didn't give her much of a chance to settle in before heading out of Brisbane to more exotic anchorages. However things didn't go so smoothly as we'd expected….it started with us wrapping the second anchor line around the propeller and having to get a local guy to dive into the murky, bull shark infested water (Jimmy wisely decided not to do it himself) to cut and pull it free. All went well but it put us a couple of hours behind schedule and so we pushed to get to our first anchorage before it was too dark. No problem except we were anchoring between a row of sunken ship wrecks and the beach with not a lot of space for mistakes, we put on brave faces and maneuvered in. All went very smoothly until Jimmy went down below to switch on a light and found himself standing in water! Someone (we're still not sure who) left the salt water pump in the bathroom switched on and so water was pouring into the boat. He swiftly found the problem and got it under control long enough to get the anchor down and review the damage.
The next two hours were spent getting the water to drain out into the bilges and washing the carpet out on deck with precious fresh water. When at last it was finished and we were getting ready to prepare dinner the wind and swell in the anchorage picked up and we began to roll back and forth as if we were in a rough passage. The rest of the night was spent trying to hold ourselves in our bunks and Jimmy decided the only way to stop Pat falling out of bed while asleep would have been to Velcro her in!
We survived the night and we're all happy to get away out to sea the next morning even though it was an overnight passage to Fraser Island and the following day we had to cross the Wide Bay Bar. I think at this point Pat was starting to think twice about her choice of a 'relaxing vacation'. The Wide Bay bar turned out to be very interesting as we watched boats ahead of us disappear through a line of breaking waves, knowing we had to go next. We got lucky and our timing was perfect, the breakers were all around us but we passed through safely (we later found out a 40ft Catamaran had been flipped over here a week before). To celebrate Pat decided that we should treat ourselves to a calm night and hot showers and so we happily pulled into the marina in Tin Can Bay.
The next week we spent day sailing the coast and exploring Fraser island, the largest sand island in Australia, hunting for our first sight of a wild Dingo's and relaxing by the pool at the beautiful 'King Fisher Resort'. With only one sleepless night caused by giant fruit bats fighting for a place to sleep in our rigging! Before long we were underway again and after another couple of day sails and one overnight we made it safe and sound to The Keppel islands. This was the end of the trip for Pat so we decided to spend a few days taking it easy before heading to the main land for her flight home. We hired a car in the town of Yeppoon giving us a day to do some sightseeing and visiting a zoo so at least pat could go home having seen a glimpse of the Koalas, Kangaroos, Dingo's and Cassowary birds!
Pat flew out at six thirty in the morning so it was an early trip to the airport and a very sad farewell. The time always seems to fly by when anyone comes to visit and it's never long enough. We really enjoyed having her with us and hope we didn't make her suffer with too many rolly days at sea. We spent the rest of the day making the most of the rental car and shopped till we dropped stocking up for our trip around the top end of Australia and Indonesia. We haven't brought this much food since we left Panama and there was no room left in the car once we'd finished!!
So now you find us sitting in another rolly anchorage on the Keppel's trying to figure out where we can possibly store everything over a much needed rum and coke. I have to admit we are pretty exhausted but with the Whitsunday's only two days sail away there's no rest for the wicked and so much more to see!!!

Beer City Bottle Shop is now Open on N. Mississippi in Portland
Beer City Bottle Shop is now Open on N. Mississippi in Portland. The bottleshop and taproom takes over part of the old Pastaworks space just a block from Prost! and Bridgetown Beerhouse. We stopped in for a quick beer and to take a look around.
A super clean and mostly bright space Beer City has the simple and cold aesthetic of a car garage, all cement walls and lighting fixtures but they do their best to warm the space up with a little green tree, an odd beer sign, a cool blue color scheme wherever there is a non cement wall that can be painted. A sole TV is setup behind the bar for use on popular game nights. Best of all they have some interesting unmounted photos by one of the owners of interesting beer art, basically figures and shapes found in the bubbles looking down into ones pint glass. A handful of folks chatted up the bartenders on metal stools while off in the corner a couple of live wood slab tables and cozy leather love seat offer a coffee shop like intimacy.
Though it's called a bottle shop I found the spaces focus to be the 8 rotating taps at the bar. They had a very nicely rounded opening taplist from Reverent Nat's Cider, Upright Brewing Six and Elysian Space Dust IPA to name a few. Surprisingly there is only four cooler doors of bottles so far, again they are carefully selected with a strong variety and good brands with a little space for craft sodas and ciders. They have a couple of bottle deal specials if you pay attention including a "Create Your Own 6-Pack" of 12oz bottles or cans for $10 which could be good depending on what they have and you select. There is also an Opening Special of pre-mixed 6-packs to go for $8 each.
Like a Tin Bucket or Growler Guys the Beer City Bottle Shop folks already have a display of their own personally branded shirts, hats and growlers. I gotta say these guys have a good looking logo that translates well to shirts and branded merchandise.
Beer City does have a very limited food menu of panini grilled sandwiches made behind the bar. I did not try any but there is an Italian Melt ($8.50), Cheese Melt ($6.50), Turkey Melt ($8.50), Beef & Cheddar sandwich ($8.50), and a BBQ'd Hawaiian sandwich (also $8.50). For bar snacks they also have a Meat & Cheese Plate with Salami, Capicola, Prosciutto, Brie, Fig Jam, Whole Grain Mustard and bread for $9.50, a Hummus Plate for $8 or a pint of Pretzels for $1.
The New School first reported on Beer City back in October 2014 where it raised some controversy over distance and comments about nearby Bridgetown Beerhouse. From purely a by the numbers comparison between Bridgetown and Beer City they both have 8 rotating taps, Bridgetown serves no food but Beer City does, Bridgetown has around 500 different bottles and Beer City only around 150. From our perspective the only substantial difference is the completely different brighter decor including big person sized glass windows and industrial feel. Do you want to drink in the dark or the light?

In 1982 HKS introduced the worlds first Turbo Timer to assist in cooling down the turbocharger to prevent oil coking in the center bearing cartridge assembly. Oil "coking" occurs when a turbocharger is not properly cooled down and the oil that normally lubricates the center cartridge heats up and forms solidified oil deposits. A turbo timer allows an engine to idle for a preset amount of time after the ignition key has been turned to the off position and removed. By allowing a turbocharged engine to idle, oil continues to pass through the turbo until it has cooled down to the point where oil "coking" will not occur. Re-designed for 2008, the all new Turbo Timer Type-0 and Type-1 feature a new, slim low profile design with a separate LCD display and control unit.
The Turbo Timer Type-0 features a red LCD backlit display for easy visibility, 2 timer modes, and a battery voltage meter with a peak value indication and warning function.

I have seen this tag floating around the world of blogs and YouTube, and I loved the sound of this tag, so I thought why not give a tag a go?
Here we go,
What's your favourite Christmas movie?
If you haven't been up to date on my festive blog posts, I have been doing regular posts on my favourite Christmas movies, so go have a stalk of those. My top three are Love Actually, Elf and The Holiday.
What's your favourite Christmas colour?
I love gold, silver and royal purple. Trust me, narrowing it down to three was a challenge.
Do you stay in your PJ's or dress up for Christmas?
In PJ's for most of the morning, then dress up nice. :)
If you could only buy a present for only one person, who would it be?
Oh this is too hard! I love getting Christmas gifts for others, I don't know if I could only buy for one person! Choosing presents for others and seeing their faces light up, is one of the best things about Christmas.
Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
Christmas Day! I couldn't open them Christmas Eve, I would feel like I would be cheating on Christmas Day.
Have you ever built a gingerbread house? YES! Let's just say it fell to pieces, multiple times. Was not successful, icing tasted amazing though.
What do you like to do on your Christmas break? Relax, take time out for myself before the new university year starts again, just enjoy myself and be in good company of others.
Do you have any Christmas wishes? Well, I do love those Cadbury Chocolate Wishes, could go for a few of them right now. Cadbury, take note here, do not take them away once Christmas is over, chocolate tastes amazing in star form. :) On a serious answer to the question, I wish to have a lovely day, filled with smiles and treats.
What's your favourite Christmas smell?
I love the sweet and spicy scents, like the smell of cinnamon, peppermint, anything sweet scented really.
What's your favourite Christmas meal or treat?
Too many to name! I love it all, I have quite the sweet tooth, so bring the Christmas truffles, shortbread, cakes, gingerbread my way. They will be consumed happily.
What's your favourite Christmas drink?
It's always hot for Christmas, but when there's the occasional cool day on the lead up to Christmas I love a good chai latte, apple and cinnamon tea, or a Christmas themed drink from coffee houses menus, and Christmas biscuits. However when its hot, cranberry juice with carbonated water, bliss!
Candy Canes or Gingerbread men?
Oooh, this is hard to choose, but I think gingerbread men have an edge. :)
What's your favourite Christmas song?
If you haven't been keeping up with my festive posts, every so often I link one of my favourite Christmas songs, so go have a stalk on my blog of my favourite Christmas songs. :)
What's the weirdest gift you've received?
I cannot think of any!
What's at the top of your Christmas list this year?
I don't think there's anything, nothing is springing to mind, I'm a tad stuck on that one!
That was fun! So anyone give it a go and if you do, do this tag let me know please!
It's nice to reflect on Christmas traditions that you may have.
Merry Christmas,

Dear companists,
A warm welcome to the first Beach-Inspector update of 2017. We hope that you all had a nice break over Christmas and have made a great start to the New Year. Today, we are delighted to be able to tell you about yet another new Beach-Inspector destination.
Cyprus represents a long beach season. From Spring to Autumn, the island offers sun worshippers the very best of weather and bathing conditions. As a result of the unstable situation in some other Mediterranean countries, this year's tourist numbers for Cyprus grew nicely. Cyprus is being viewed as being a safe destination.
Similarly to the Algarve in Portugal, in 2016 Cyprus also benefited from political quarrels and security problems in different countries and significantly more visitors were to be seen than in the previous years. Many German tourists are discovering Cyprus for themselves for the first time. But the German tourists are still clearly in the minority. By far the most important source market for the island is the UK - the next market in which Beach-Inspector plans to be active in 2017. Internationally, first reports are indicating that in 2016 Cyprus recorded more than 2.7 million tourists.
In addition to the strategic importance of Cyprus for the British market, for Beach-Inspector the marketing on the German market of the newly acquired destinations as a first step is naturally of huge importance. With the direct taking on-line of the Cyprus locations with FTI Touristik, we are very happy to have acquired a large tour operator for the destination. FTI Touristik numbers among the five largest tour operators in Germany and offers an extensive package programme for Cyprus. Alongside Dubai, Oman, Costa del Sol and Mauritius, Cyprus is the fifth destination in which FTI Touristik now collaborates with Beach-Inspector.
All the beaches in Cyprus and the best travel offers - Click here!
That's all for the current update. Things will continue with the opening up of further important European beach holiday destinations - one of the most important strategic goals for Beach-Inspector in 2017. With this in mind, may we wish you all a happy, successful and above all healthy New Year for 2017. Until the next update from Beach-Inspector.
Warm regards
Anton, Kai & Thomas
Investments in crowdfunding projects offer great opportunities, but they are risk investments. In the worst case, the entire investment amount may be lost. Consequently, these investments are unsuitable for retirement plans. However, there is no obligation to make further contributions. Investors can minimize their risk by splitting their investment amount between crowdfunding campaigns rather than investing all of it in one crowdfunding campaign. Professional investors often follow this strategy because it causes the risk to be distributed among several investments. In this way, successful investments can balance other less successful investments.
The shares of the Companists are subordinated profit-participating loans (partiarische Nachrangdarlehen). Such loans are shares in a business with similar characteristics as equity. If the company becomes insolvent or is liquidated, the claims of the Companists – just like those of all other shareholders of the company – will be satisfied from the assets in the insolvency or the assets in liquidation only after the claims of all other external creditors have been satisfied. Thus, Companists are treated like any other shareholder of the company during insolvency or liquidation proceedings.
The company information published on the Companisto website is provided solely by the companies. The projections made by the companies do not guarantee successful development of the company in the future. Consequently, crowdfunding investments are suitable only for those investors who can cope with the risk of a total loss of the capital invested. Investors make their own independent investment decisions and bear all risks themselves.
The investments are provided and issued by the individual companies. Companisto is neither the provider nor the issuer of the investments, but solely the internet service platform.

Dr. Christopher Powers elected president of California Physical Therapy Association
Dr. Christopher Powers, associate professor in the Division of Biokinesiology and Physical Therapy, has been elected to serve as president of the California Physical Therapy Association (CPTA), which is a chapter of the American Physical Therapy Association.
Dr. Powers takes the helm of the organization at a critical point for the 77,000 members of the CPTA. The CPTA successfully lobbied for a law to allow Californians direct access to physical therapy services. Beginning on January 1, 2014, patients in California will no longer need a physician diagnosis in order to seek treatment by a physical therapist. The new law also changes the rules of ownership of physical therapy practices.
With that battle behind it, Dr. Powers noted that CPTA has a responsibility to help with the implementation of that law to ensure that patients, practitioners and insurance providers understand the changes moving forward.
"With the passing of the new law, it will be important to increase public recognition of physical therapists as direct access practitioners," said Dr. Powers. "Also, we will need to work with insurance companies to obtain suitable payment for services rendered within a direct access environment."
Dr. Powers joined the Division faculty in 1997, just a year after earning his Ph.D. in biokinesiology at USC. He was promoted in 2003 to associate professor and also holds joint appointments in the departments of radiology and orthopaedic surgery. He is also director of the program in biokinesiology.
His relationship with CPTA also dates back to his days as a USC graduate student. Dr. Powers' first research grant, which funded part of the work for his dissertation, was awarded to him by the California Physical Therapy Fund. He has credited the organization with advancing his career and, at the same time, with advancing the entire profession through its support of researchers across the state.
"This grant provided me with the money necessary to complete my dissertation, which at the time was focused on better understanding the pathomechanics of patellofemoral pain. I am happy to say that I have been able to continue this line of research now for over 20 years," said Dr. Powers. "Importantly, I was able to leverage this relatively small grant into a productive research career including more than 130 publications and over a million dollars in federal funding."
Dr. Powers is co-director of the Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Research Laboratory at USC where he continues his research on how altered kinematics, kinetics and muscular actions contribute to lower extremity injury.

How I eliminated over $84,000 of debt in less than a year with these nine simple, life-changing steps, and how you can too.
In March 2015 Matthew Thrush had over $84,000 in debt, no job, $100 in his bank account, and no hope for the future. Disqualified for unemployment by the government and overqualified for all of the jobs he interviewed for, Matthew was at rock bottom.
He suffered from chronic depression, anxiety, and pain on a daily basis. Migraines and disorientating vertigo were his closest friends as he trekked through life with his head held low, shoulders slumped, and a heavy bag of debt weighing him down.
Life was meaningless and miserable for a long time. He blamed God for his problems and secluded himself to his apartment. He stopped seeing friends and family. The things he loved grew bland. The passion and creative outbursts he once had were all but dust and shadow. There was no light at the end of the tunnel.
Then one day everything changed.
In My Blessed Life: 9 Steps to Financial Freedom and Abundance, Matthew shares some of his testimony with real-life struggles and examples of how he eliminated over $84,000 of debt in less than a year. His simple, yet profound, nine steps will empower you to do the same. With a new mindset, a clear goal ahead, and the road map to reach it, you're well on your way to a debt free life and financial freedom, if you follow the principles he shares.
The following year Matthew went from dead broke to no debt, a six-month emergency savings fund fully stocked, maxed Roth IRA, paid for a wedding, honeymoon, engagement & wedding rings, increased his 401(k) contributions to 15%, paid down nearly $108,000 of his home mortgage, and quit his day job to write novels full-time in less than four months.
Matthew isn't super human. He's an average guy just like you. If he can do it, so can you—if you have the right guide to lead you and a heart of stone to make the necessary sacrifices to grasp it. Matthew's newfound passion is helping others attain their goals and to eradicate the barriers and strongholds imprisoning them. Whether it's debt, a sense of helplessness, depression, or no sense of purpose, Matthew wants to empower people with their true purpose and hope.
Debt is painful. It will beat you until you can't go on. But life doesn't have to be that way. If you follow Matthew's strategies, you'll learn the principles that took him from the darkness of depression and hopelessness to a life of blessing and financial freedom. A blessed life is more than financial wealth; it's abundance in every aspect of life.
Matthew is the #1 Amazon bestselling author of over 23 novels; both personal and ghostwritten. He spends most of his time helping others share their stories, testimonies, and experience through ghostwriting. He hopes to use his testimony to change lives. If his words help just one person eliminate their debt and start living a blessed life, he's succeeded in his vision.
If you're in debt and there looks like no way out, this book is for you. Don't wait another second. It's time you got your life back. Claim your Financial Freedom now!
