Content: Reality is Necessarily Connected (Limited Determinism, Limited Freedom)
The only absolute way to solve this problem of free will vs. determinism is to know what exists and how it is interconnected. This requires a correct understanding of the interconnected relationship between mind, matter and space. Here we work from the most simple foundation, the wave structure of matter in space (for the latest summary of WSM see Truth Statements on Physical Reality ). From this foundation we find that matter is necessarily connected in space (by the spherical in and out waves that form the wave center 'particle') but this is within infinite space, and continually has waves flowing in from infinity that can never be pre-determined. See Cosmology. This also explains the uncertainty of Quantum Theory and that we can never exactly know where each successive in-wave will meet at its wave-center 'particle', thus we can never exactly know both the future motion (momentum) and position of the 'particle' (see: Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle ). For a system to be absolutely deterministic it must be both; i) Necessarily connected (thus logical)
ii) You must know the initial position and motion of its parts. For the wave structure of matter the first part is correct, reality is logically interconnected due to wave interactions in space.

On Chance and Certainty in a Necessarily Connected Universe
Let us take a normal pack of playing cards (52 cards - 13 Hearts, 13 Diamonds, 13 Spades, and 13 Clubs) and place the Ace of Hearts face down on the top of the pack. Thus I am both necessarily connected to the Ace of Hearts (as I am to all matter in the universe) and I have pre-determined knowledge of the exact card (stored as repeating motions in my brain), thus I can be certain that if I turn the card over it will be the Ace of Hearts. Thus when I have complete knowledge of the system then there is no chance involved - the system is necessarily connected and pre-determined.

Content: This motion can be determined and gives rise to certainty in the near future (this is the source of all logic). From these above two examples we can conclude that; Certainty exists when we do have pre-determined knowledge - either stored in repeating motions in our brain (memory / knowledge of the top card) or in repeating motions of the object we are observing (the pendulum). Chance exists when we do not have pre-determined knowledge, either due to ignorance (our mind lacks knowledge of repeating motions, e.g. the top card) or the object we are observing does not have repeating motions (clouds). Importantly, both examples (chance and certainty) exist and occur within a necessarily connected universe that has limited determinism, limited freedom. The Solution
So how can we have any freedom at all if reality is necessarily connected? As Spinoza writes; There is no mind absolute or free will, but the mind is determined for willing this or that by a cause which is determined in its turn by another cause, and this one again by another, and so on to infinity. ... A body in motion or at rest must be determined for motion or rest by some other body, which, likewise, was determined for motion or rest by some other body, and this by a third and so on to infinity. ( Spinoza, 1673)
The problem here is that science and philosophy became dominated by Newtonian concepts, most notably the idea that matter was made of particles.

About Paige Smith
Content: Do the same with other outdated electronics, like your chunky first iPod or sprawling collection of VHS tapes. Next, get rid of anything you don’t enjoy or use regularly, Lava says, whether it’s an untouched e-reader or pile of empty flash drives. She adds that it’s also helpful to purge single-use devices — like a digital camera or mp3 player — if your phone or tablet has those same functions. 2. Create a Plan For Disposing of Your Electronics. Tossing electronics in the garbage can be dangerous, and stashing them at the back of your closet only creates more clutter. That’s why Stephanie Shalofsky, an NYC-based professional organizer and organizing consultant, stresses the importance of creating a plan to safely and swiftly dispose of your unused stuff. “For example, identify a charity or organization that provides phones to members of the military or abused women, and donate your old phone within a week of setting up the new one,” she says. Another good option is to search for electronics recycling locations near you. Best Buy, according to its website, will happily take all your used tech, no matter where you bought it, how old it is, or who made it.

Title: Albert Einstein Biography: Quantum Theory | SparkNotes
Headings: Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein
Biography
Quantum Theory
Content: Matrix mechanics was far more mathematically abstract and involved those elements of chance and uncertainty that Einstein found so philosophically troubling. In 1928, Heisenberg, Bohr, and Born developed the "Copenhagen interpretation," which joined the matrix and wave mechanical formulations into one theory. The Copenhagen interpretation relies on Bohr's complementarity principle, the idea that nature encompasses fundamental dualities and observers must choose one side over another in making observations. The interpretation is also based on Heisenberg's uncertainty relations, which state that certain basic properties of an object, such as the position and momentum of a subatomic particle, cannot be measured simultaneously with total accuracy. Thus the Copenhagen interpretation explained that while quantum mechanics provides rules for calculating probabilities, it cannot provide us with exact measurements. Following the formulation of this new interpretation, Born and Heisenberg proclaimed that the "quantum revolution" had come to an end: quanta were a mere means of calculating probablilities, but did not account for phenomena as they actually occur. However, Einstein could not accept a probabilistic theory as the final word. As he saw it, the very goal of physics was at stake: he yearned to produce a complete, causal, deterministic description of nature.

Alternation of Generations
Summary Alternation of Generations
All plants undergo a life cycle that takes them through both haploid and diploid generations. The multicellular diploid plant structure is called the sporophyte, which produces spores through meiotic (asexual) division. The multicellular haploid plant structure is called the gametophyte, which is formed from the spore and give rise to the haploid gametes. The fluctuation between these diploid and haploid stages that occurs in plants is called the alternation of generations. The way in which the alternation of generations occurs in plants depends on the type of plant. In bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), the dominant generation is haploid, so that the gametophyte comprises what we think of as the main plant. The opposite is true for tracheophytes (vascular plants), in which the diploid generation is dominant and the sporophyte comprises the main plant.

Bryophytes are nonvascularized plants that are still dependent on a moist environment for survival (see Plant Classification, Bryophytes . Like all plants, the bryophyte life cycle goes through both haploid (gametophyte) and diploid (sporophyte) stages. The gametophyte comprises the main plant (the green moss or liverwort), while the diploid sporophyte is much smaller and is attached to the gametophyte. The haploid stage, in which a multicellular haploid gametophyte develops from a spore and produces haploid gametes, is the dominant stage in the bryophyte life cycle. The mature gametophyte produces both male and female gametes, which join to form a diploid zygote.

Tracheophytes are plants that contain vascular tissue; two of the major classes of tracheophytes are gymnosperms (conifers) and angiosperms (flowering plants). Tracheophytes, unlike bryophytes, have developed seeds that encase and protect their embryos.

Page 1 Page 2
Summary
After the explosion of the USS Maine, the US public was whipped up into an anti-Spanish hysteria. Despite Spain's desire to avoid war and President William McKinley's distaste for war, the yellow press continued feeding the public's appetite for anti-Spanish news. Hawks like then-Assistant Secretary of the Navy Theodore Roosevelt loudly criticized the reluctant McKinley for being weak and afraid. Although he disagreed with the public's demands for war, McKinley finally submitted to the various pressure exerted on him.

Summary
Commentary
Content: The Maine had exploded in Mid-February, and on April 11, 1898, McKinley finally sent a message to Congress giving his support for a declaration of war on Spain. Congress, which now had the President's word that he would not block a war with Spain as Cleveland had threatened to do, was ecstatic. On April 24, 1898 Spain declared war on the US. The next day, on April 25, the US declared war on Spain. The US public was exuberant, and the people celebrated as the country cheerfully went to war. In order to prove the righteousness of the US cause, Congress decided to send a message to the European powers, many of whom believed the American war against Spain to be an imperialistic land-grab, an effort to assume control of Cuba from Spain. Congress passed the Teller Amendment in May 1898, in which the US promised not to annex Cuba, but to liberate it as an independent state. Thus, the US claimed to be fighting the war not for selfish gain, but to liberate an oppressed people and promote justice in the world. Commentary
Even directly before the war, some people on both sides were trying to avoid conflict. Spain wanted to avoid war at all costs, and the Spanish diplomats to Washington promised to end the concentration camps and make peace with the insurrectos.

Even directly before the war, some people on both sides were trying to avoid conflict. Spain wanted to avoid war at all costs, and the Spanish diplomats to Washington promised to end the concentration camps and make peace with the insurrectos. The US would not have it, demanding only one thing: complete Spanish withdrawal from Cuba and a recognition of Cuban independence. Spain refused. American public opinion now rested decidedly against the Spanish, and because of the way the yellow press had covered the explosion of the USS Maine, most of the country distrusted everything the Spanish said. Oddly enough, President McKinley also opposed the War.

Why is the war in 1984 never ending? In 1984, the endless war enables the ruling class to remain in power while the lower classes remain powerless. In Goldstein’s manifesto, he observes that a country that is productive will eventually become prosperous, unless something is done to destroy the fruits of that productivity. War is the ultimate solution to this problem.

Content: He then dreams of a place called The Golden Country, where the dark-haired girl takes off her clothes and runs toward him in an act of freedom that annihilates the whole Party. He wakes with the word “Shakespeare” on his lips, not knowing where it came from. A high-pitched whistle sounds from the telescreen, a signal that office workers must wake up. It is time for the Physical Jerks, a round of grotesque exercise. As he exercises, Winston thinks about his childhood, which he barely remembers. Having no physical records such as photographs and documents, he thinks, makes one’s life lose its outline in one’s memory. Winston considers Oceania’s relationship to the other countries in the world, Eurasia and Eastasia. According to official history, Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia and in alliance with Eastasia, but Winston knows that the records have been changed. Winston remembers that no one had heard of Big Brother, the leader of the Party, before 1960, but stories about him now appear in histories going back to the 1930s. As Winston has these thoughts, a voice from the telescreen suddenly calls out his name, reprimanding him for not working hard enough at the Physical Jerks.

Content: 1984: Setting | SparkNotes
1984
All of the events of the novel take place in a fictionalized version of London at some unspecified time in the future. Within the novel, London is the capitol of a province called Airstrip One, which is itself part of the nation of Oceania. Oceania is one of three world powers, and is composed of the Americas, the Atlantic islands including the British Isles, Australasia, and the southern portion of Africa. The other two world powers are Eastasia, composed of China, Japan, and parts of Manchuria, Mongolia, and Tibet; and Eurasia, composed of the northern part of the European and Asiatic land-mass, from Portugal to the Bering Strait. We might assume from the title that the novel is set in the year 1984, but we never actually know for sure. Because of the way that the Ingsoc Party controls and rewrites history, Winston does not know what the year is, but only suspects that it is 1984. The city of London is divided between three distinct social groups. The Inner Party lives in relative comfort with servants and access to luxury goods.

The Outer Party, of which Winston is a member, lives in stark, dilapidated conditions with very little control over their personal space or property. The lowest social group, the proles, live in poorly maintained slums where the Party does not attempt to exert much control, but also does not provide support or opportunity. The city is dominated by four large mega-structures that represent the four ministries of the Party. The names of these departments are intentionally misleading and, in fact, the exact opposite of the function of each office. The Ministry of Love is in charge of law and punishment, the Ministry of Peace controls war, the Ministry of Plenty manages rationing, and the Ministry of Truth produces propaganda.

Content: Valentine Character Analysis in Ender's Game | SparkNotes
Ender's Game
Valentine is Ender's older sister, and she does what she can to protect him from Peter, their sadistic older brother. Valentine has much of Ender's compassion, but she does not have Peter's ruthlessness. However, as the story progresses, Valentine learns that the differences between the three siblings are not as great as they seem. She never ceases believing that Ender is the best of them, and she loves him unconditionally. In fact, her love helps save Ender when the pointlessness of Battle School threatens to break him. But as she begins working with Peter to transform the political system on earth, using her pseudonym Demosthenes, Valentine learns that there is a part of her that enjoys control. Although she does not want to manipulate people for the sake of manipulation, like Peter does, Valentine knows that she is intelligent enough to make a major difference and sees no reason why she should not. However, she would never wish to do damage in her attempt to change the world. Valentine, like Ender, would never deliberately harm someone else. Unlike Ender, however, she falls prey to the irresistible urge to power.

Page 1 Page 2
Summary
The chapter begins with a heated argument between Colonel Graff and General Pace, the chief of the I.F. military police. Dap has filed a report regarding the possible conspiracy to harm Ender among some of the students at the school. Pace wants Graff to take some action and Graff insists that Ender must handle this on his own. There will be no one to save Ender when he is the commander in the war against the buggers and so he must rely only on himself and his fellow schoolmates. This is the only way that Graff believes Ender will be able to reach his fullest abilities. Graff refuses to back down, and Pace can only threaten action if Graff's plans do not work. Meanwhile Ender trains his men, working on some new techniques that Bean has come up with. Petra attempts to warn Ender that he is in danger, and he already knows this. His toon leaders escort him to his room, where Dink has left him a message of warning.

Summary
The conversation that starts Chapter 13 is not about Ender but rather about Peter and Valentine. Two American I.F. officers are discussing the other two Wiggin children, since they have finally tracked down the true identity of Demosthenes and Locke. The officers decide to follow Graff's advice on the matter, which was to do nothing, to let them continue, since they have not caused harm and may be correct. Valentine, meanwhile, enjoys being Demosthenes, although Peter is as dangerous as ever, and they learn that the world is preparing for war. To a large degree Valentine has become her pseudonym. Graff picks her up after school one day and takes her to go see Ender. She is forced to trust him when he mentions that he knows who Demosthenes is; Valentine does not want Locke to find out about this meeting.

Summary
Analysis
Content: Ender still loves Valentine, and so she is able to influence him. She convinces Ender that he must return to space to save mankind from the buggers. Her appeal is on a personal level, and it works. Ender knows that he can defeat his enemies, and he can do that by understanding them better than anyone, but unlike Peter, when he understands them he starts to love them. It is then painful for him to destroy them. While Peter crushes what stands in his way without a second thought, Ender does not feel the same way. Ender is unconcerned with ambition or power, and unlike Valentine, would be content to live a normal life. However, he loves his sister, and, along with her, the rest of humanity. Because of this conflict, Ender has no choice but to go to I.F. command and prepare to fight the buggers. He is aware that he risks destroying himself, for he will again be forced to give in to his destructive side—Ender must act like Peter once more.

Ender hates himself because he is like Peter, and now his sister, the one person he truly loves, is asking him to go back to being like Peter in order to save her life. It is a tremendous personal sacrifice for Ender to leave earth, but for Valentine he will even destroy himself. Once he decides to leave, Ender begins to pick Graff's brain for all that he knows about the buggers.

Once he decides to leave, Ender begins to pick Graff's brain for all that he knows about the buggers. Ender learns that by studying the buggers, humans have learned how to master communication at faster than light speed—the buggers actually think that way. He also learns the sad truth that the bugger wars may be due entirely to a misunderstanding. Assuming that the buggers communicate instantaneously with each other, how could they understand that humans are actually intelligent life forms? This possibility troubles Ender, but he is forced to agree with Graff that since they cannot know for sure that the buggers will not attack again, they must wipe their enemy out.

Summary
Analysis
Content: The action returns to Ender's home, where his sister Valentine is comforting him over the loss of his monitor, although Ender does not seem to care. His brother Peter is angered by the fact that Ender had his monitor for longer than he did. Peter decides that he and Ender should play buggers and astronauts, a common children's game. However, Peter actually hurts Ender during the game, as he has in the past, treating his brother like a hated enemy. Even as Peter is preparing to do physical damage to him, Ender stops to think about what it really feels like to be a bugger, and what they think about humans. Peter, a full four years older than Ender, remarks out loud that he could kill Ender by slowly crushing the air out of his lungs with his knee and how everyone would think it was an accident. Ender does not think Peter is serious but knows it is possible. Valentine talks Peter out of it by pointing out that if he wants to enter politics he cannot have anything that looks this bad in his past, and he relents, although he tells her never to stop watching Ender because someday he will kill him. Peter goes even further, telling Valentine that it will look like an accident and she will not want to blame him. But, Peter says, he will kill Ender eventually.

Then Peter laughs about it all, claiming he was just messing around. Ender's parents come home, with very little to say, and it is clear that Ender cannot relate at all to them, except that he knows how awkward he makes them feel, since he is a Third, and he hates that feeling. Finally, while Ender is lying in bed at night, Peter comes to him, and at first Ender fears for his life. However, Peter apologizes, claiming that Ender is his brother and he loves him. Later, after Peter falls asleep, Ender cries again.

Peter
Content: Peter is able to gain what he wants because he does not care about others, and he will stop at nothing. Ruthlessness is the human condition devoid of its humanity, and it is the danger that threatens total destruction. Friends and Enemies
In Ender's Game it is never entirely clear who is a friend and who is an enemy. Graff, Anderson, and Rackham, who are undoubtedly Ender's friends, appear to him as enemies and are forced to do so. Peter attempts to befriend Valentine merely to get what he wants, but she never forgets that he is not a real friend. Petra Arkanian and Dink Meeker are always Ender's friends, but at times he is uncertain of where they stand. But by far the most striking juxtaposition occurs with the buggers. The only enemy that Ender truly fears, the buggers in the end prove to be friendly. The earth's greatest enemy, the alien race it was at war with, turns out not to have been intentionally hostile. Card constantly proves that friends and enemies are not clear distinctions.

Peter
Content: Peter's humanity is questioned, while Ender's is what saves the planet. In the end, the buggers themselves suggest to Ender that if things had gone differently both races could have celebrated the other's humanity. Their compassion for the humans they killed and their sorrow over the war means that they are human, and this is why Ender feels the need to do something to help them and why he so keenly mourns his destruction of their race. Ender
Ender is very much a representative of all that is good. He is filled with sorrow for any destruction he causes and wishes no ill to any other creature. He is good because he is kind, but he is also good because he makes the sacrifices that he has to make. It is good to do what is needed, even if what is needed does not seem right. Ender does not hate Graff or Rackham for what they did to him, because he realizes that they did what had to be done. At the same time, he is crushed by the thought that he wiped out an entire race. He is good because he is forgiving—he understands even those who hate him.

Content: Throughout the book, we see Janie struggle with her own voice and control of language. As Gates writes in an afterword included in most modern editions of the book, Hurston views the “search for voice” as the defining quest of one’s lifetime. The divided style of narration, however, suggests that the quest is complicated and lacks a singular resolution. Gates argues, “Hurston uses the two voices in her text to celebrate the psychological fragmentation of both modernity and of the Black American... [H]ers is a rhetoric of division, rather than a fiction of psychological or cultural unity.” Against this division, though, Hurston, in subtle ways, opens lines of communication between the two narrative styles. The third-person narrator is a voice that, while different from Janie’s, partakes of figures and experiences in Janie’s world. Hurston colors the narrator’s sophisticated prose with colloquialisms, like the “Now” that opens the novel’s second paragraph, nature metaphors, and a tone that reveals that the narrator delights in storytelling as much as any of the characters. Because of these qualities, the narrative voice is more than just the absence of dialect; the narrator has a personality that is related, though not identical, to those of the characters. Hurston’s affection for Black folklore and dialect is evident not only in its raw presentation in dialogue form but also in the traces it leaves on her high prose.

Content: In this case, Nanny was the victim of slavery and Janie, in turn, was the victim of the mindset that Nanny’s experience shaped in Nanny. Here, we see that large forces, such as cultural forces and environmental circumstances, not particular people, are the sources of pain. Janie’s newfound sympathy for her grandmother represents another step toward attaining her goal: she now sees from where she has come and why she was unhappy with Jody. She realizes that her quest is a spiritual one, searching for more than mere materialism. It is significant that all of these revelations come in the course of conversation; Hurston maintains her emphasis on speech interaction. Janie’s quest for self-discovery is literally a quest to find her own voice. Thus, it is important to note her description of Tea Cake’s meaning to her: “ He done taught me the maiden language all over.”

Headings: The Metamorphosis
The Metamorphosis
Content: It takes him time to realize that he can no longer play that role in his family and that he can’t even go outside in his current state. As the story continues, Gregor’s insect body has an increasing influence on his psychology. He finds that he is at ease hiding in the dark under the sofa in his room, like a bug would, even though his body won’t fit comfortably. He also discovers that he enjoys crawling on the walls and ceiling. But Gregor’s humanity never disappears entirely. He still feels human emotions and has strong memories of his human life. As a result, even though he knows he would feel more physically comfortable if his room were emptied of furniture, allowing him to crawl anywhere he pleased, Gregor panics when Grete and his mother are taking out the furniture, such as the writing desk he remembers doing all his assignments at as a boy. In a desperate attempt to hold onto the few reminders he has of his humanity, he clings to the picture of the woman muffled in fur so that no one will take it away. Ultimately he’s unable to fully adapt to his new body or to find a new role within his family, which is disgusted by him and ashamed of his presence in the house. Toward the end of the story, he even feels haunted by the thought that he might be able to take control of the family’s affairs again and resume his role as the family’s money-earner.

Content: Grete Samsa Character Analysis in The Metamorphosis | SparkNotes
The Metamorphosis
Apart from her brother Gregor, Grete is the only other character addressed by name in the story, a distinction that reflects her relative importance. Grete is also the only character to show pity for Gregor through most of the novella (his mother also exhibits pity for him later in the story), apparently owing to the great affection Grete and Gregor had for each other before Gregor’s transformation. Consequently, she becomes Gregor’s primary caretaker. She brings him food, cleans his room, places his chair by the window so he can see out to the street, and comes up with the idea of removing his furniture so he has more room to scurry and climb. In this role as caretaker she serves as Gregor’s only real human contact for most of the story, and she acts as Gregor’s only strong emotional tie to his family—and indeed to the rest of humanity. Grete, however, changes more than any other character in the story—in essence undergoing her own metamorphosis from a girl into a woman—and that change occurs while her pity for Gregor slowly diminishes. While at first Grete takes care of her brother out of kindness, eventually she comes to regard the job as a duty. She doesn’t always enjoy it, but it serves to define her position in the family, and she becomes territorial about caring for Gregor, not wanting her mother to be involved. As she matures and takes on more adult responsibilities, most notably getting a job to help provide for her family financially, her commitment to Gregor diminishes. Eventually she comes to resent the role, and it is Grete who decides they must get rid of Gregor.

Pick 10 Books and We'll Guess Whether You're an Introvert or an Extrovert
Content: Today, we say something is like Romeo and Juliet to describe a love that surpasses all boundaries, but a close reading of the play suggests the lovers’ feelings are more complicated than pure love. If we look, we can find plenty of evidence that Romeo and Juliet’s love for one another is, at least initially, immature. Romeo begins the play claiming to be passionately in love with another woman, Rosaline. When he sees Juliet, he abandons Rosaline before he has even spoken to his new love, which suggests that his feelings for both women are superficial. Juliet, meanwhile, seems to be motivated by defying her parents. She is unenthusiastic about her parents’ choice of husband for her, and at the party where she is supposed to meet Paris, she instead kisses Romeo after exchanging just fourteen lines of dialogue with him. When Romeo returns to see Juliet, she is focused on marriage. For Juliet, part of the appeal of marriage is that it will free her from her parents: “ I’ll no longer be a Capulet” (2.2.). She compares Romeo to a tame falcon—a “tassel-gentle” (2.2.)—which suggests that she believes she can control him.

Juliet’s love for Romeo seems at least in part to be a desire to be freed from her parents’ control by a husband who can’t control her either. More experienced characters argue that sexual frustration, not enduring love, is the root cause of Romeo and Juliet’s passion for one another. Mercutio tells Romeo “this drivelling love is like a great natural that runs lolling up and down to hide his bauble in a hole” (2.4.). Every time Romeo tries to demonstrate the seriousness of his love, Mercutio undermines him with sexual jokes. When Romeo risks returning to the Capulets’ house to see Juliet again, Mercutio calls after him that he is just sexually frustrated: “

Content: Tybalt still seeks revenge for Romeo’s decision to attend the Capulets’ ball. Romeo, believing himself freed from the feud by his secret marriage to Juliet, refuses to fight Tybalt. But Romeo’s freedom is an illusion. Tybalt provokes Mercutio and Mercutio challenges him. They fight, and Mercutio dies. Now Romeo’s duty to his new in-laws, the Capulets, comes in conflict with his duty to avenge his friend’s death. Romeo kills Tybalt. Although he was provoked into the murder, and he would have been killed had he not killed first, he is no longer an innocent, blameless character. It now seems unlikely that Romeo and Juliet will be able to live happily together. Romeo is banished from Verona.

Cultural Diffusion
Global Diffusion
Content: Example: Americans tend to value technological advancement, industrialization, and the accumulation of wealth. An American, applying his or her own standards to a culture that does not value those things, may view that culture as “primitive” or “uncivilized.” Such labels are not just statements but judgments: they imply that it is better to be urbanized and industrialized than it is to carry on another kind of lifestyle. People in other cultures, such as some European cultures, also see American culture through the lens of their own ethnocentrism. To members of other cultures, Americans may seem materialistic, brash, or arrogant, with little intellectual subtlety or spirituality. Many Americans would disagree with that assessment. Exported Ethnocentrism
When missionaries go to other countries to convert the local people to their brand of religion, they are practicing ethnocentrism. Missionaries usually want to convert people to their own forms of worship, and they sometimes encourage people to give up their religious beliefs.

The History of the Presidency
The Framers’ Views of the Presidency (1789)
King Caucus (1789–1830s)
Clerk in Chief (1840s–1900)
Assertive Early Presidents
Content: For most of the nineteenth century, political leaders believed that political power should center on Congress and that the president’s job should be to execute decisions made by Congress. Some scholars have referred to the presidency during this era as a “clerk in chief” because the president was not expected to initiate or guide national policy. Many nineteenth-century presidents acted more like clerks in chief, exercising little initiative or independent power. Assertive Early Presidents
Despite the general trend of weak presidents, several early presidents stand out for their assertiveness and importance. George Washington (president from 1775 to 1783) established the character of the office that nearly all his successors would emulate. Washington carried himself in a statesmanlike manner and set the standard of serving no more than two terms. He also created an indelible image of what a president should be: strong, capable, honorable, and above partisanship. Thomas Jefferson (president from 1801 to 1809), in contrast, acted without congressional approval a number of times, such as when he made the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. Andrew Jackson (president from 1829 to 1837) was another assertive president and was the first to appeal directly to the average voter as a means of building support.

The President and the Public
Summary The President and the Public
Theodore Roosevelt changed the public’s perception of the presidency by asserting the centrality of the office in American government. The president is chosen by the whole nation, not just a district or state, and therefore the office of the president is the most important office in the federal government. Roosevelt’s stewardship theory of the presidency claimed that the president has the right to do whatever the nation needs, within the limits of the law. The President’s Constituents
The president has a number of different constituencies. The most obvious constituency is the citizens of the United States: He or she is the president of all people in the United States, not just those who voted for him or her. But the president also has constituents in the political party, members of the opposing party whose cooperation the president needs, as well as interest groups.

Content: In addition, people with the following heart conditions should not lift weights, according to the AHA: Unstable coronary heart disease, such as those with angina
Congestive heart failure
Severe pulmonary hypertension
Severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis
Acute infection of the heart or tissues surrounding the heart
Uncontrolled high blood pressure (greater than 180/110 mmHg)
Aortic dissection
Marfan syndrome
As with any exercise program, it's important to talk to your doctor before you begin lifting weights to see if it's right for you. Your Weight-Lifting Plan for a Healthy Heart
Once cleared to exercise, it doesn't take much time to reap the heart-healthy benefits of resistance-training! The AHA recommends that healthy adults perform 8-10 strength-training exercises (to work the whole body) twice a week. They advise picking a resistance level that allows you to fatigue your muscles within 8-12 repetitions, but beginners and older or frailer individuals should use much lighter weights, aiming for 10-15 repetitions per set. Following these guidelines shouldn't take more than 20 to 30 minutes a couple times per week. The workout plans will help get you started, and you can meet with an experienced personal trainer at the gym to show you proper form if needed. All of the plans are designed to be done in circuit-training format where you quickly switch from an upper-body exercise to a lower-body move without resting between exercises; this will help elevate your heart rate so you burn calories and gain even more heart benefits! If you're new to strength training, read this reference guide first and follow these basic principles for safety and efficacy:

Content: After age 60, this rate of loss doubles. But, muscle loss is not inevitable. With regular strength training, muscle mass can be preserved throughout the lifespan, and the muscle lost can be rebuilt. Learn Why Strength Training is a Must for Everyone. How often should you strength train with each major muscle group? Once a week
2-3 times a week
4-5 times a week
Everyday
Explanation: Aim to train each muscle group at least two times per week, and up to three if you have the time or are more advanced. One day per week may help you maintain your current level of strength, but it will not be enough to build muscle. It is important to rest 1-2 days in between working out the same muscle (s). Rest days give the muscles time to repair themselves from small tears that occur during strength training, and this is how you get stronger.

What Happens When You Commit Voting Fraud
On Behalf of Spatz Law Firm, PL | Nov 16, 2018 | Criminal Charges |
As election season comes to a close, crimes involving ballots and voting tend to come to light. Though it doesn’t happen often, it does happen on occasion. According to Vox, “Voter fraud is extremely rare. As Vox’s German Lopez has written, a study by Loyola Law School professor Justin Levitt found just 35 credible allegations of fraud from 2000 and 2014 – out of more than 800 million ballots cast.” This year in Miami-Dade County two women were caught committing voter fraud and could be in some serious trouble. One woman, 74-year-old Gladys Coego, was charged with being linked to anywhere from two to a dozen fraudulent votes after she was caught using her own pen to fill in votes to be cast for mayoral candidate Raquel Regalado. She is being charged with two counts of felony and turned herself in. She was released on a $10,000 bond.

She is being charged with two counts of felony and turned herself in. She was released on a $10,000 bond. Additionally, 33-year-old Tomika Curgil was caught filling out at least 15 forms for voters who are dead or don’t even exist. She was arrested in her home and charged her with five felony counts of submitting false voter-registration information. Her bond was set at $125,000. In the grand scheme of things, it may seem like a mere 15 votes won’t make a difference in an election and while that could be true, it doesn’t make this any less of a serious charge.

Eunuch are Male or Female
TRENDING TOPICS
Content: It does not apply to refer to people of trans gender. This term is no more used very widely to refer to the class of males who have been castrated. It is very difficult for castrated men to embrace the eunuch identity since it is most likely to out them from the normal society. Though not addressed by this term, eunuchs are very common today than any time in this past. Most eunuchs today do not feel comfortable to reveal their identity except among very close circles. They are very different from male to female transsexuals. They go for castration or emasculation not due to an urge to transition from male to female. Usually in the cases of people wishing to become transsexuals, they too undergo oestrogen therapies along with castration. But, the vast majority of eunuchs do not want feminization. One of the main reasons for getting their genitals removed is to free themselves from the hormone testosterone that is secreted by the glands attached to the testicles.

This is the main androgen hormone that is responsible to for the masculine character of males. Removal of testicles in necessitated during some types of cancer. In some cases, the feminine qualities are visibly seen after the performance of these procedures and in some cases, they are not so visible so as to be easily observed by all. Therefore, while these procedures might be required under some arising situations, many of these individuals do not disclose their identity for fear of rejection by the society. Though we may call eunuchs as trans genders in one sense, the main difference between them and those feminized is that they do not undergo all the procedures required for feminization.

Why Is The Skin Cancer Rate Higher In Australia? Why Is The Skin Cancer Rate Higher In Australia? Skin Cancer Causes Skin Cancer Check Skin Cancer Symptoms
According to the World Health Organisation, there has been a significant increase in both non-melanoma and melanoma skin cancers over the past decade. Globally, we reach between 2 to 3 million non-melanoma and 132,000 melanoma skin cancer cases each year. But why is Australia ranking near the top of the skin cancer list? According to Australia’s Department of Health and Ageing, Australia and New Zealand have the highest skin cancer incidence and mortality rates in the world! In both countries, the risk of people developing melanoma before the age of 75 is 1 in 24 for males and 1 in 34 for females. Our Skin Cancer Expert: Dr Ahmad Hasanien
Dr Ahmad Hasanien, a skin cancer physician at Specialist Clinics of Australia in Sydney, explains his concerns regarding these statistics; “

Note:
Content: Since 1970’s, a gradual depletion in the ozone layer has been noticed by scientists. This happens especially near the North and South Poles. As the ozone layer depletes, the atmosphere loses its protective filter and more of the dangerous UV radiation reaches the surface of our planet. This depletion is directly related to the growing number of skin cancer cases. Protection against UV radiation is individual responsibility as the main factors making people susceptible to developing melanoma are associated with sun exposure and a history of sunburn. Researchers estimate that a 10% decrease in the ozone layer will result in additional 300,000 non-melanoma and 4,500 melanoma skin cancer cases (www.who.int/). The problem with Australia is that the continent receives higher UV radiation levels than Europe. “ Being located close to the ozone hole over the Antarctic means that much higher, more severe levels of UV radiation get through to ground level,” says Dr Hasanien. During summer, the Earth’s orbit brings Australia closer to the sun (as compared to Europe during its summer), resulting in an additional 7% solar UV intensity. Coupled with our clearer atmospheric conditions, this means that Australians are exposed to up to 15% more UV than Europeans.

Now, the history lesson: migration patterns are also responsible for a high number of skin cancer cases in Australia. Hundreds of years ago, the genetic makeup of people corresponded with their environment. Nowadays people’s skin pigmentation is often no longer suited to their surroundings, especially in Australia.

Questions for Robert Joseph: How extreme prematurity ups autism risk
Robert Joseph
Content: The Expert: Robert Joseph
Assistant professor, Boston University
Infants born prematurely have a higher risk of autism than infants delivered at term, and this risk climbs the earlier a baby is born. But it’s unclear whether these autism features are merely a by-product of the complications of prematurity. Autism in premature infants is no different from classic autism and not just a result of prematurity, says Robert Joseph, assistant professor of anatomy and neurobiology at Boston University. An early exit from the womb intensifies the biological factors that drive autism, putting preterm infants at heightened risk, he says. In a 2009 study, Joseph’s colleagues found that 21 percent of children born before 28 weeks of gestation showed signs of autism at age 2. In an extension of that work published in May, Joseph’s team evaluated those same children at age 10 1. About 15 percent of children born between 23 and 24 weeks of pregnancy have autism, compared with 3.4 percent of children born at 27 weeks, the study found. We asked Joseph what he has learned about the link between prematurity and autism. Spectrum:

Content: And we believe that in the absence of these neuroprotective factors, certain prenatal environmental exposures and events, and the inflammatory processes that accompany them, can lead to brain injury. S: A mother may go into preterm labor for many reasons. How might these reasons influence autism risk? J: We’re trying to understand better how maternal and intrauterine characteristics and exposures put the child at greater risk for both preterm birth and autism. We and other researchers are finding that one of the strongest predictors of autism in preterm infants is fetal growth restriction, being small for gestational age. It’s possible that a lack of growth results in extremely premature birth, and the deleterious effects of exiting the womb midway through gestation further raises the risk of autism. Preterm birth may cut short infants’ exposure to factors that might protect against autism in a full-term infant. Not only are preemies entering the world early, but they may be exposed to maternal health problems that trigger preterm labor.

Outside the uterus, they may also be exposed to environmental toxins such as tobacco smoke or toxic building materials; lack of money, food, and appropriate nutrition; and the psychosocial stress experienced especially by socially disadvantaged women.

What is Adaptive Development and Why is it Important?
Content: What may be an appropriate skill at age 3 years will be very different from what might be considered optimal at 6 years of age. So feeding oneself with one’s fingers may be appropriate as a toddler, when at age 5 years, a child should be using a spoon for that same food. Adaptive development studies how a child is moving through the stages of skill development and whether that child needs assistance to stay up with their peers or meet their personal best outcomes. Pediatric Occupational therapists are specifically trained to evaluate a child’s ability to perform age appropriate daily activities as one piece of determining a child’s adaptive development level, whether that would be with self help skills or play skills. Assessment includes observation and interaction, parent input, medical history, and the use of standardized tools. Occupational therapists evaluate fine motor precision, which looks at finger and hand movement; visual-motor integration, which examines the ability to integrate visual stimuli with motor control; balance, and coordination as well as the adequacy of sensory integration. These skills are the foundation for life skills, so by identifying strengths and weaknesses, the therapist can determine the most appropriate treatment plan for a given child. A treatment plan is developed based on the evaluation findings.

These skills are the foundation for life skills, so by identifying strengths and weaknesses, the therapist can determine the most appropriate treatment plan for a given child. A treatment plan is developed based on the evaluation findings. The occupational therapist will design meaningful and functional activities that will afford the opportunity for a child to learn, practice and strengthen targeted skill areas. Many times when a skill is hard to acquire, a child (or adult!) will avoid that activity, so setting up practice situations is a critical part of treatment. Also breaking the skill into manageable steps is often very helpful. For some children, a therapist may recommend adaptive equipment, such as a pencil grip or slant board.

Motivation-Hygiene Theory (The Two Factors Theory)
Putting the Theories to Work
Content: It goes deeper than just a reason for acting or behaving. Motivation is a force that works within our minds. The various content theories attempt to consider what these forces are. From the Latin word "movere," which means to move and the late 19th century motive means internal drive, motivation is a force that actuates behavior (s) and provides the gas to move behaviors toward fulfillment of the drive. So motivation theory is concerned with why and how the actuating force is activated and how it works to accomplish its goal. Content theories of motivation are one of the types of motivation theory. In the field of organizational behavioral studies, there are two different categories called content theories (also known as need theory) and process theories. There is no universally accepted theory of motivation. This will consider the more prominent theory of motivation in the content category. Content Theory of Motivation
Content theory of motivation is concerned with the internal factors that actuate human behavior.

Content: Steak fries are typically thicker than french fries. To make baked steak fries, you’ll want to find potatoes that are a little bit smaller. Steak fries should be cut into small wedges about 3/4″ to 1″ thick. You will follow the same cooking method below but for a longer period of time. How to Bake French Fries
To achieve maximum crispiness in your homemade French fries, I do a 2 temperature cook: Be sure to preheat your oven to 375°F. Dry the fries thoroughly after soaking and before seasoning. Generously oil and season the oven fries. Spread evenly in a single layer on a parchment line pan. Cook 20 minutes (25 for thicker fries).

Content: Home Fried Potatoes are a simple breakfast staple, tender yet starchy potatoes cooked in butter until crisp on the outside. How to Make Home Fries
No need to peel your potatoes for this home fries recipe! Keep it rustic and just cut Russet potatoes into rough cubes before boiling in water. Russets are the best choice for home fries because they are firmer and reheat better than standard white or red potatoes. Boiling the potatoes for a few minutes before frying (while the onion is cooking) makes the potatoes perfect every time! You don’t want to fully boil them, just soften a little. Be sure to cut them small, about 1/2″ to 3/4″ cubes. I keep them simple with onions and potatoes but you can add peppers, fried mushrooms or even toss in leftover veggies! To Cook Home Fries
Boil the potatoes a few minutes until they are tender enough to poke with a fork. Heat some butter (or better yet, bacon grease!)

Content: Sirloin tip roast is perfect served as an entrée with mashed potatoes or roasted broccoli and a crisp salad. The leftovers make great sandwiches during the work week and are perfect in Beef Barley Soup. What is a Sirloin Tip Roast? Also called a beef sirloin tip roast, or a round tip roast, this is the portion that is cut from the hindquarters of the cow and is often a tougher cut- the larger the muscle, the tougher the cut. This is not the same as a sirloin roast. A sirloin tip oven roast should be slowly cooked to tenderize the meat, to turn this cut of beef into a masterpiece! Meat is expensive so I always use a thermometer for everything from perfect pork tenderloin to baked ham and even roast chicken! I have both an instant read thermometer for things like steaks and chicken breasts and one I can leave in the oven for things like roasts or roast chicken. Using a thermometer ensures your dishes come out perfectly cooked and meat is juicy and tender, never dry! How to Cook a Sirloin Tip Roast
A high temp at first creates a crust on this roast and seals in the juices (so I don’t bother to brown first).

Content: Inflammation causing foods, such as sugars, refined carbohydrates, trans fats, and hydrogenated oils
Smoking, which can lower the production of anti-inflammatory molecules and induce inflammation
It is advised to check with your doctor before making extensive dietary changes and to ensure that your diet does not interfere or interact with any current medications. For more information, see The Ins and Outs of an Anti-Inflammatory Diet on Arthritis-health.com
2. Build specific micronutrients
Supplements help build up micronutrients in your body, which may not be fully obtained through a regular diet. A few examples of important micronutrients include: Magnesium
Vitamin D
Vitamin E
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B6
Zinc
Selenium
Fish oil (Omega-3 fatty acids)
These micronutrients help suppress inflammatory mediators and reduce the overall inflammatory processes. Vitamin E, zinc, and selenium act as antioxidants in the body. 1 The B group of vitamins help improve nerve health 2,3 and reduce sciatica. You can also take curcumin (turmeric) supplements if you don’t consume turmeric as a part of your daily diet. See Calcium and Vitamin D Requirements
3. Release your natural pain killers with massage
Massages can help you feel relaxed, release endorphins (your body’s natural hormones that reduce the perception of pain), improve blood circulation, and soothe sore spinal muscles.

4 How to increase self-awareness – Someone providing us with feedback or telling our mistake

6 Our dreams can also tell us about ourselves
7 In summary
Content: Close family members and friends are privy to some aspects of our private self as we let our guard down in front of them. Hence, they become invaluable aides in helping us assess ourselves. As we practice becoming more aware of ourselves and how we are perceived by others, we learn many more shades of our characteristics to a minute level. Hence we are in a better position to overcome our personality defects and understand where our strengths lie. In the following paragraphs, we will examine some of the ways one can increase one’s self-awareness. 3 How to increase self-awareness – By observing oneself
To understand our personality, we need to understand the nature of our mind. The mind is made up of two parts – the conscious and sub-conscious mind. The sub-conscious mind is vast and the impressions that are buried deep inside are not easy to uncover and analyse. However, ever so often during the day one’s mind erupts and reacts to some events and situations negatively. As a result, one feels a certain amount of restlessness and emotions such as insecurity, fear or anger.

6 Our dreams can also tell us about ourselves
7 In summary
Content: Most of us plod on through our daily lives not taking a moment to pause and introspect as to why we experienced that emotion in the first place. In fact, through such situations in one’s day-to-day life, one’s mind, by reacting negatively to situations and events opens up a window and gives one a vignette into its nature. If one is alert and objective in one’s outlook, one can follow the pathway through the window that the mind opens up. As a result, through this process one begins to gain greater self-awareness as to how one’s mind works and how it responds to various stimuli. This is known as metacognition, which means having awareness and understanding of one’s own thought processes. This particular type of self-development pertains to becoming conscious of one’s own body and mental state of being including thoughts, actions, ideas, feelings and interactions with others. It is therefore the first step in overcoming negative emotions and reactions. A person generally responds negatively to situations and events due to impressions of personality defects in the sub-conscious mind. Let’s take an example. Annette felt restless when her boss praised her colleague.

7 In summary
Content: Accordingly, in the future she would be able to be more solution oriented to avoid the restlessness caused by such incidents and gain stability. As Annette becomes more alert to introspecting about her feelings and emotions in such situations, there will be further stages to her becoming more self-aware. For example,
How long does her restlessness continue before she becomes alert to it? Will she then be able to put the brakes on it and control the feeling of restlessness? Does she try to go within and learn more about herself and her personality defects? Where else does this type of restlessness occur? Who else are involved? 4 How to increase self-awareness – Someone providing us with feedback or telling our mistake
“Turn that music down Raul”, Raul’s father shouted. “ There is not a moment’s peace in this house with you continuously playing such loud music.” Raul cursed under his breath and sullenly turned the volume of the music down.

6 Our dreams can also tell us about ourselves
7 In summary
Content: It is never easy to take negative feedback from others about our actions or our life. In such times, thoughts such as, ‘why can’t they understand me’, ‘I am not like that’ and ‘I do not want to hear about it’ will often cross our mind. Suppose Raul stopped for a moment and looked at the situation objectively; he would probably learn a thing or two about how others perceived him. When other people give us some feedback however stern it may be, it provides us with a clue as to how we are perceived by others. If someone has experienced pain due to our actions, it is mostly due to some personality defect in us that is causing our action to impact others adversely. 5 How to increase self-awareness – Observing someone else’s mistake and then introspecting
Jeremy and Ruth were arguing about household chores. Ruth insisted that Jeremy was not doing enough at home while Jeremy continued to provide lame excuses about why he was unable to do the household chores on time. When their friend Mark overheard their argument, he realised that he was the same as Jeremy. Now as a third person and not being emotionally involved, Mark could objectively see that Jeremey’s lame excuses were childish and illogical, and were exasperating his wife Ruth.

Now as a third person and not being emotionally involved, Mark could objectively see that Jeremey’s lame excuses were childish and illogical, and were exasperating his wife Ruth. Seeing the impact of this, Mark made a mental resolve to overcome his own laziness and help his own wife at home without making any excuses. This is an example of how when one observes a situation that involves other people, one gains a greater understanding of oneself. As one may not be emotionally involved in the situation, one is more objective and hence the ability to learn is more. 6 Our dreams can also tell us about ourselves
Sometimes stronger impressions in our subconscious mind surface in our dreams to the extent that we are able to remember the dream and even learn about our mind. One seeker had a dream where she was experiencing fear before going on stage to deliver a lecture.

One seeker had a dream where she was experiencing fear before going on stage to deliver a lecture. She woke up in a sweat and could not go back to sleep for over an hour. Such kinds of dreams are worth introspecting upon as they may shed some light on deeper issues in our sub-conscious mind. 7 In summary
Becoming self-aware is the first step in overcoming personality defects. Self-awareness can be achieved through observing one’s own mistakes, asking others for feedback, observing others mistakes objectively and through some dreams. Whenever one becomes emotionally unstable, restless or upset one should become alert as on deeper introspection, it usually provides insight into some personality defect that has been triggered.

Content: A rain shower can have its beautiful sides. The wind is changing constantly in time and in space. Whatever wind you have got where you are, it may be completely different in the next valley or fjord or within half an hour. Spitsbergen is not as windy as Iceland, Scotland or the Falkland Islands or South Georgia. In summer, calm days are more common than strong winds, but a low pressure may always move through, bringing 1-2 days of strong wind or even storm. The risk of strong winds is increasing in autum and winter, it is at its lowest in June and July. Strong wind and snow drift at Lloyd’s Hotel in Krossfjord. By now it should really be common knowledge that climate change is an ongoing development and not an obscure prediction and it makes itself felt more strongly in the Arctic than in lower latitudes. In Spitsbergen, the rise temperature is stronger than anywhere else in Europe, the winter temperatures have already risen by 2 degrees. There is appearently a tendency towards milder winters with more frequent warm air influence, and wetter, windier summers.

Content: Be flexible about when you travel. Suppose you don't need to travel on a specific day at a particular time. In that case, it can be worth comparing differences in prices across alternative dates and times to save money. Avoid travel at weekends where possible, increased demand at these times can mean higher prices. If possible, we recommend taking the train at off-peak times during the week, outside of holiday time. 6. Use a Railcard
If you regularly travel by rail or only take a few train journeys a year, getting and using a Railcard can make you significant savings. Sometimes you can get Railcards for free, for example, if you open a bank account. Railcards are available to buy from £20 per year or £70 for three years. Some of the Railcards available include:

Content: You likely have heard of the Caribbean before. It often comes up when talking about tropical vacation destinations, hurricanes, or Disney pirates. But the Caribbean is much more. It is a region of remarkable biodiversity, with varied ecosystems on both land and sea. Equally diverse are the people, languages, and cultures of this region. So what is the Caribbean? Where is it located, and what all does it encompass? Location
The Caribbean is a region that consists of the Caribbean Sea, many islands, and the surrounding coasts. On a map, you will find it southeast of the Gulf of Mexico and the North American mainland, east of Central America, and north of South America. Much of the Caribbean is located on the Caribbean tectonic plate, and the Caribbean islands are usually regarded as a subregion of North America.

Much of the Caribbean is located on the Caribbean tectonic plate, and the Caribbean islands are usually regarded as a subregion of North America. There are more than 7,000 different Caribbean islands, islets, reefs and cays, but only about 2% of them are inhabited. Many of the Caribbean islands can be put into two larger groups – the Greater Antilles of the north, and the Lesser Antilles in the southeast. The Greater and Lesser Antilles, together with the Lucayan Archipelago, make up an island region sometimes called the West Indies. Countries
Within the Caribbean, you will find 13 independent island countries (many of which are made up of more than one island). These include:

8 Fun Facts about Narwhals
The narwhal male's tusk — which is is hollow and weighs around 22 pounds — grows throughout its life. age fotostock / Alamy Stock Photo
Like the walrus and elephant, this arctic whale has a majestic quality to it because of its regal-looking tusk. In medieval times, its tusk was often presented to important people as a unicorn’s horn. Here are eight more fun facts about this beautiful whale. 1. Its closest living relative is the beluga, but unlike belugas, narwhals (or narwhales) possess a tusk that is actually a tooth. It is a front left tooth that protrudes from the upper lip. The right front tooth is small, and usually remains in the mouth. 2. The tusk, which grows throughout the narwhal’s life, can reach 10 feet long (regulation basketball hoops are 10 feet tall).

As it grows, it spirals to the left. 3. The tusk can bend about 12 inches before breaking. Its structure is opposite of a human tooth — it has a tough core and soft outer layer. 4.

Why is Dr Disrespect banned on Twitch? Here's what we know
Is Dr Disrespect perma-banned on Twitch?
What did Twitch say about Dr Disrespect's ban?
What did Dr Disrespect say about getting banned?
Does this have to do with Twitch's sexual abuse bans?
What about the DMCA takedown requests?
Sources: it is not DMCA
So why was Dr Disrespect banned from Twitch?
Is Dr Disrespect in legal trouble?
What about the Brime conspiracy with Ninja and Shroud?
What about the end of Dr Disrespect's last stream?
Has Dr Disrespect been banned before?
Why is Dr Disrespect's ban a big deal?
Have Dr Disrespect's sponsors dropped him?
What about Dr Disrespect's subscribers?
Content: She later deleted the tweet and said the reason why was, "I totally get that it turns out [people] didn't want more confirmation that it is a permanent ban without the reason and felt the tweet was clout chasing, so I will respect those perspectives and delete the tweet."

Is Dr Disrespect in legal trouble? He has not been arrested, according to reports. I can tell you this. After getting off the phone with the Sheriff's Department that has jurisdiction where the Dr lives, he has not and was not arrested, nor ever been in custody in that jurisdiction. — Kevin Hitt vs COVID-19 (@Kevin_Hitt) June 27, 2020
What about the Brime conspiracy with Ninja and Shroud? Dr Disrespect conspiracy theory has hit a whole new level! pic.twitter.com/1Nm2n8bqyu
— KEEM 🍿 (@KEEMSTAR) June 28, 2020
From what we can tell, the Brime conspiracy is not legitimate. The rumor — started on 4Chan — starts by saying Spotify is owned by Google, which is not the case. Most of the other information involved in that conspiracy involves Google, which has nothing to do with Spotify, making it flimsy.

The Difference Between a Jammed and Broken Finger

Content: Pain in the finger’s PIP joint, which can be dull and mild for a slight sprain or sharp and throbbing for a severe sprain
Swelling and redness in the PIP joint, which may be more evident when comparing the affected finger with the others
Difficulty bending the finger or gripping objects, but the finger can still be bent
If the sprain is severe and the joint has become displaced, the finger may also look crooked or out of joint. It is a common misconception that the individual or a coach should attempt to “pull it out” to realign it—this is not the case. Rather, the finger should be splinted and the person should seek medical attention. advertisement

The Difference Between a Jammed and Broken Finger
The same blunt trauma forces that can sprain a finger can also cause a fracture, and it is important to know how to tell the difference between the two. There are a few distinct symptoms that can help differentiate these injuries: Jammed Finger
Broken Finger
Mild to moderate pain
Severe pain
Finger able to bend
Finger unable to bend
Swelling recedes after a few hours
Swelling persists
Jammed fingers can be treated at home through self-care, but fractures require assessment by a physician. Individuals in doubt about a potential fracture should seek medical treatment. Next Page: Treating a Jammed Finger

Home Treatment for a Jammed Finger
If a jammed finger is not severe and there is no reason to suspect a fracture, it can be self-treated at home. Below are treatment measures that can help alleviate pain and swelling while the sprain heals. Temporarily immobilize the finger. Protect the finger from further injury using either by “buddy taping” it or using a finger splint. Budding taping involves taping the injured finger and a neighboring finger together. Buddy taping helps protect the jammed finger while also improving its range of motion by allowing it to be a “buddy” to an uninjured finger. Temporarily splinting the finger for 1 to 2 days is okay.

Buddy taping helps protect the jammed finger while also improving its range of motion by allowing it to be a “buddy” to an uninjured finger. Temporarily splinting the finger for 1 to 2 days is okay. A temporary splint may be appropriate if moving the finger is very painful and/or a fracture has not been ruled out. However, if there is no fracture, splinting for longer than 1 to 2 days can negatively affect the joint's long-term healing and range of motion. Take a break from sports or activities that may reinjure or further injure the finger. Use ice therapy to decrease inflammation and dull pain by applying a cold pack to the affected joint for 5 to 10 minutes every few hours. Take anti-inflammatory pain medication, such as ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve), as needed.
