Content: The European Union followed up by imposing $2.5 billion in retaliatory tariffs. The Bush administration quietly withdrew its import taxes in 2002. The Obama administration imposed taxes of 35 percent on the import of tires in 2009 to ostensibly save jobs. The move resulted in a net increase of about 1,200 jobs at a cost of roughly $1.1 billion or $900,000 per job. After a rigorous economic analysis, the Obama administration, quietly backed away from the tariffs, withdrawing them in late 2012. The prospective tariff war the Trump administration intends to start with China will likely look like the Obama experience. Outsizedretaliation by China on industries beyond steel and aluminum such as agricultural, including the symbolic targeting of products politically important to Trump such as Harley Davidson motorcycles, Levis jeans and Kentucky bourbon, has made for high-profile optics.

A trade war occurs when countries move beyond WTO involvement and issue punitive taxes against a country or economic bloc. The first sign isa period of disruption and devolution in global trade: dissolution of the global trading regime through the repeal of multilateral trade treaties such as NAFTA; aggressive erection of non-tariff barriers; caps on capital flows and the expropriation of foreign-owned firms and property. Such conditions portend sharp currency devaluations such as those of the Great Depression of the 1930s.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, Global Citizen is celebrating some of the most influential Latinas of our time — from civil rights activists to astronauts to journalists. Some have inspired corridos (ballads) and murals, others rally cries, and still others entire movements. They’ve rewritten the rules for thousands of young Latinas and taught them that no matter the obstacle, “si se puede.” Here are seven Latinas making the world a better place: Dolores Huerta, civil rights activist

While teaching grammar school, Dolores Huerta noticed that many of her students showed up to class ill or malnourished. Her students’ strife inspired her to begin her lifelong crusade of correcting economic injustice. In 1962, the union leader and activist co-founded the first successful farm workers union in the United States, calling it the United Farm Workers. | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/7-influential-latinas-who-have-made-huge-contribut/ |

1. Violence
Hate crimes against LGBTQ individuals are still shockingly prevalent across the country. In 2015, nearly one in five hate crimes committed in the US was due to sexual orientation, and another 2% of crimes were committed because of gender identity. There has been an epidemic of violent crime against transgender individuals, particularly trans women of color, in recent years, including 13 who have been killed just this year. Trans women of color are among the most vulnerable minorities in the country, fighting against racism, sexism, transphobia, and, frequently, poverty, putting them at higher risk for violence. Still, 16 states across the country do not include gender or sexual identity under their hate crime laws, another 13 states only cover sexual orientation, and four states have no hate crime laws at all.

What's behind the great divide of American schools.
Ready to take action?

Bloomberg Bloomberg
In fall 2015, more than 50 million children in the US attended a public primary or secondary school to receive an education. But how much does an education in the US cost? Well, it depends where you live. The National Center for Educational Statistics reports that the average per-student expenditure in public schools was $12,605 for the 2015-16 academic year. Utah spends around $6,555 per pupil while New York spends $19,818, according to a report by the US Census Bureau. This number even varies by school districts. At the low end of spending in the 100 largest school districts in the US is Jordan, Utah, at $5,708 per student; at the high end is Boston, Mass., at $20,502. One reason for the difference is the varying cost of living nationwide, which affect everything from teacher salaries to building and maintenance fees. Another reason is education spending in high- or low-income areas. | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/cost-of-education-in-us/ |

Another reason is education spending in high- or low-income areas. “What it says very clearly is that we have, in many places, school systems that are separate and unequal,” Education Secretary Arne Duncan said. “ Money by itself is never the only answer, but giving kids who start out already behind in life, giving them less resources is unconscionable, and it’s far too common.” Read More: The Value of Education
Federal data shows that there is a gap between education spending in the nation’s poorest and most affluent school districts, and in 23 states, richer school districts get more funding than the poor districts. Nationwide, an average of 15 percent less per pupil is spent in the poorest school district than in the most affluent, according to the Washington Post. | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/cost-of-education-in-us/ |

4 Ways You Can Fight Climate Change and Help the Environment
Take action today to protect the Earth.
1. Reduce your personal consumption.
2. Prevent waste from entering the oceans.
3. Demand action and get involved.
4. Hold your local leaders accountable.
Content: But the fate of the planet and its people is not sealed. Individuals, corporations, communities, and world leaders can still take action to counter the effects of climate change and help fight inequality. Here are four ways you can have a positive impact on the environment and help mitigate climate change today. 1. Reduce your personal consumption. The food we eat, the things we buy, the way we power our homes, and how we choose to travel all contribute to climate change in some way. The production of our everyday items not only requires energy and resources that take a toll on the environment, but also emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which contribute to rising global temperatures. But by lowering your intake of animal products, becoming a more conscious consumer, switching to renewable energy, and choosing more eco-friendly modes of transportation — like biking to work — we can help reduce our carbon footprints and advance the Sustainable Development Goals . “ Just as problems are interrelated, the solutions to poverty, inequality, climate change, and other global challenges are also interlinked,” said Liu Zhenmin, the United Nations’ under-secretary-general for economic and social affairs. 2. | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/four-ways-you-can-make-a-positive-impact-on-the-pl/ |

Content: Demand action and get involved. Regardless of where you live, the impacts of climate change are likely to be felt nearby. Increasingly unpredictable weather patterns, more frequent natural disasters, and extreme temperatures are becoming the norm in many places. At least 749 municipalities around the world have already declared climate emergencies, but urgent action is still needed — and you can help call on community leaders to act on this issue now. Show up at community hearings, political protests, educational talks, and volunteer days and make your voice heard. Such opportunities and events are often posted in local newspapers and shared by community activists on social media. 4. Hold your local leaders accountable. Individual action is key to fighting climate change, but it’s not enough. By holding local leaders accountable for the changes we want to see, we can ensure action at a higher level. | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/four-ways-you-can-make-a-positive-impact-on-the-pl/ |

City mayors, for example, are directly accountable to their constituents because they are more likely to interact with them face-to-face than, say, someone on Capitol Hill. In 2015, all 193 member states of the UN adopted Agenda 2030 in an effort to secure economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental protection for all. With 10 years left to achieve this proposal on schedule, single cities have become more crucial than ever in the fight against climate change.

As part of the series, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes and Ali Velshi moderate “Climate Forum 2020,” a two-day event where 2020 presidential candidates will talk with young voters about their plans to address the emergency. | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/four-ways-you-can-make-a-positive-impact-on-the-pl/ |

Lots of research has been done showing the positive effect immigrants have on local and national economies. A common misconception, however, is that immigrants steal jobs from native-born citizens. “Immigrants and US-born workers generally do not compete for the same jobs,” the economists Michael Greenstone and Adam Looney wrote for the Hamilton Project. “ Instead, many immigrants complement the work of US employees and increase their productivity.” | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/how-immigrants-benefit-society-trump/ |

The vast majority of e-waste isn’t disposed of in an environmentally friendly way. In fact, only around 15% to 20% of e-waste is recycled around the world and recycling methods vary substantially. A lot of countries simply ship their e-waste to other countries, where toxic e-waste substances like lead, cadmium, and mercury cause environmental and health problems. In 2016, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology put tracking devices on 200 discarded devices in the US and followed them to Hong Kong, Mexico, Taiwan, China, Pakistan, Thailand, Dominican Republic, Canada, and Kenya, demonstrating the sprawling nature of e-waste management.

“One of the biggest challenges facing recyclers today is waste minimization,” Sean Magann, VP of Sales and Marketing for Sims Recycling Solutions, told Global Citizen over email. “ Desktop computers were once made out of almost 100% metals and these metals were easy to recover, but now more items are plastic based and the average size of each device has decreased." “From a commodity point of view, you have to do a lot more for metal recovery,” he added. “ | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/recycle-cellphones-ewaste-what-happens/ |

Sadly, the Hijras are less accepted by society in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh. Hijras identify as women born in male bodies. Hijras have their own ancient language — Hijras Farsi and served monarchs in South Asian regions for centuries. Today, they are primarily outsiders in their communities, excluded from many economic opportunities. In spite of marginalization from the rest of the world, whom they refer to as “dunya daar” the Hijras preserve their own language and culture where gender knows no boundaries. Sekrata in Madagascar
In Madagascar, for the Sakalava people recognized a third gender called Sekrata. Boys in Sakalava communities who exhibit traditionally feminine behavior or personalities are raised by parents as girls from a young age. Instead of labeling these boys as gay, they are seen as having a male body and identifying as a female. Sexual preference is not a factor for the Sakalava and raising a child in this third gender is natural and accepted in the community’s social fabric. Some people have more trouble understanding the idea of a “third gender.” | https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/third-gender-gay-rights-equality/ |

Content: East and West may have myriad differences based on culture and education. These differences can be noted for the most part in people’s behavior and attitudes. The major difference between eastern and western culture is that people in the east are more conservative and traditional than the general population in the west. Let’s have a clear view on the difference between east and west in terms of culture…
Eastern Culture
Eastern Culture (refer to the culture map above) has these characteristics listed below: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Shenism, Taoism, and Islam are some common religions practiced in the Eastern world. The population in Eastern countries is more traditional than people in the West when we consider their clothing, rituals, and so on. For example, Indians pay respect to their elders or parents by touching their feet. East Asians bow as a gesture of welcoming guests, apologizing and expressing thank you. People in the East are commonly inflexible in their beliefs and ideologies. They do not easily compromise nor question the long practiced customs and traditions. | https://www.globalfromasia.com/east-west-differences/ |

Important decisions related to the children’s future are normally made by the elders. And, when parents grow old, the kids are likely to take care of them. Arranged marriages are common in the Eastern countries. They are normally arranged by the parents of the couple or other elders. | https://www.globalfromasia.com/east-west-differences/ |

Content: radar, engines, and secondary structures. A complete retrofit of all three subsystems could be done for less than $3 billion. The F-15D is a two-seat variant of the single-place F-15C. The primary purpose of the F-15D is aircrew training, with an instructor pilot occupying the rear seat while an upgrading pilot mans the front seat controls. The primary purpose of the F-15B/D is aircrew training, with an instructor pilot occupying the rear seat while an upgrading pilot mans the front seat controls. The rear seat pilot has a full set of flight controls and can fly the aircraft throughout the envelope, including takeoff and landing. Even though space is sacrificed to accomodate the second crew member, the F-15B/D retains the same warfighting capability as the F-15A/C. In keeping with the trainer concept, however, the rear seat is not equipped with controls for the combat avionics and weaponry. In fact, the rear seat is not a mandatory crew position, and F-15B/Ds are often flown with empty rear cockpits. The F-15 E Strike Eagle was built to fulfill the role of the Dual Role Fighter (DRF)—having the ability to perform precision strike missions on its own and air-to-air interdiction. On 11 December 1986, the first F-15E (two-seat) flew its maiden flight. It is very similar to the F-15D except the aircraft is optimized for air-to-ground missions. | https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/f-15-variants.htm |

Ghana History - The Slave Trade
During the heyday of early European competition, slavery was an accepted social institution, and the slave trade overshadowed all other commercial activities on the West African coast. To be sure, slavery and slave trading were already firmly entrenched in many African societies before their contact with Europe. In most situations, men as well as women captured in local warfare became slaves. In general, however, slaves in African communities were often treated as junior members of the society with specific rights, and many were ultimately absorbed into their masters' families as full members. Given traditional methods of agricultural production in Africa, slavery there was quite different from that which existed in the commercial plantation environments of the New World. Another aspect of the impact of the trans-Atlantic slave trade on Africa concerns the role of African chiefs, Muslim traders, and merchant princes in the trade. Although there is no doubt that local rulers in West Africa engaged in slaving and received certain advantages from it, some scholars have challenged the premise that traditional chiefs in the vicinity of the Gold Coast engaged in wars of expansion for the sole purpose of acquiring slaves for the export market. In the case of Asante, for example, rulers of that kingdom are known to have supplied slaves to both Muslim traders in the north and to Europeans on the coast. Even so, the Asante waged war for purposes other than simply to secure slaves. They also fought to pacify territories that in theory were under Asante control, to exact tribute payments from subordinate kingdoms, and to secure access to trade routes — particularly those that connected the interior with the coast. | https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/africa/gh-history-2-1.htm |

It is important to mention, however, that the supply of slaves to the Gold Coast was entirely in African hands. Although powerful traditional chiefs, such as the rulers of Asante, Fante, and Ahanta, were known to have engaged in the slave trade, individual African merchants such as John Kabes, John Konny, Thomas Ewusi, and a broker known only as Noi commanded large bands of armed men, many of them slaves, and engaged in various forms of commercial activities with the Europeans on the coast. The volume of the slave trade in West Africa grew rapidly from its inception around 1500 to its peak in the eighteenth century. Philip Curtin, a leading authority on the African slave trade, estimates that roughly 6.3 million slaves were shipped from West Africa to North America and South America, about 4.5 million of that number between 1701 and 1810. Perhaps 5,000 a year were shipped from the Gold Coast alone. | https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/africa/gh-history-2-1.htm |

Content: GDP figures show real wages fell by 3.8 percent in the second quarter this year, outstripping the 2 percent decline in the second quarter of 2009, when the global financial crisis was wreaking havoc. Kiuchi said the impact on earnings had materialized sooner than expected. He feared it could precipitate a negative spiral where shrinking incomes lead to a decline in spending, which triggers a further deterioration in business conditions and, in turn, a continued decline in wages. Kiuchi added that the after-effects of an economic crisis tend to be more serious and last longer than expected. He noted that in the decade or so since the global financial crisis, Japan's industrial production had failed to rescale its pre-2008 heights, and was now declining again due to the pandemic. He said it will remain weak for some time because consumption had begun to slow again due to a resurgence in the virus in some parts of the world. Since taking office in 2012, Abe has worked to revive Japan's economy using three "arrows" – flexible fiscal mobilization, monetary measures, and structural reform. The policy, aptly dubbed Abenomics, had proven particularly effective on two fronts: stock prices, and the jobless rate. At the end of 2012, the Nikkei Average was hovering around the 10,000 yen mark. | https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/japan/economy.htm |

Content: He spoke out, via his favorite medium Twitter, about the US over-reliance on Chinese exports, and that his tariff was a motivator for US companies to look for alternative solutions for suppliers outside of China, rather than simply turning to some nation over and over again to supply the products they needed. Trump’s Reasoning
Trump’s steps to disincentivize US trade with China could be viewed as impulsive, since the immediate effects of so drastic a tariff will likely fall on the US consumer, with US household costs potentially rising by up to $1000 a year, with such a large selection of consumer goods now made noticeably more expensive. Similarly, Trump’s plan, though it must have considered the possibility of consequences, didn’t allow for a reaction in the opposite direction as the Chinese trade officials lashed back at the tariff. The Chinese Response
Not ones to be out-maneuvered, least of all by Trump, the Chinese responded to the tariffs with sanctions of their own that were as much a political response as a practical one, as they delivered a counter punch to Trump’s initial move. China immediately imposed additional tariffs on exported goods on a $75-billion target list, and further tariffs were placed on thousands of items originating from the US. Similarly, China was quick to begin imposing new duties on US crude oil, a predictable but damaging move that has made the potential fallout and impact on global stock markets more noticeable. The Trade War Fallout
“Such actions from nations as influential as the US and China don’t come without an impact that affects people from all around the world. In this instance, a variety of shifts have left most markets a little worse for wear, but most drastic damage has been avoided”, explains Mark Cherry, a business writer at Australia2Write and NextCoursework. The fallout included the US stock futures dipping 0.7% and the Asian markets are down. A noticeable drop in oil prices was also recorded, as would have been expected after the duties imposed on US crude by the Chinese. | https://www.globaltrademag.com/global-stock-markets-impacted-by-trade-war/ |

Content: Competing with yourself more so than with others. Humility is an asset for self-improvement. By living a humble life, you recognize the areas of your life that need work. If your coach suggests changing a technique to aid your performance in the ring, you must accept that your current technique may not be the best suited for your goals. That comes with letting go of your preconceived notions and trusting your coach. Only with humility and emotional intelligence can you allow these encounters to fuel your growth and coachability. We also need humility for inner well-being. Becoming frustrated and angry at failure comes with any struggle in life. It’s important we understand humility to be able to better navigate those losses and pick ourselves up after the falls. It might sound counter-intuitive, but the more humble you are the more resilient you can be. | https://www.gloveworx.com/blog/importance-humility/ |

Health Benefits of Yogurt
Health benefits of yogurt, as a great nutritious food, is beyond those of milk. It is made by bacterial fermentation of milk and has been around for more than 6000 years. Yogurt contains excellent levels of protein, a serving has approximately 20% of the daily protein requirement for an average adult. Bacterial fermentation allows these proteins to be easily digested by the body. A Japanese research found that yogurt helps with the treatment of gum disease – bleeding, swollen gums or exposed roots. Probiotics- live cultures in yogurt reduces hydrogen sulfide levels that causes bad breath, gingivitis and dental plaque formation. Calcium and protein available in yogurt can promote weight and fat loss, especially the excess fat around the stomach area and also help maintain lean muscles – minimize loss of muscles. Yogurt has the branched chain amino acids and calcium is claimed to reduce fat cells’ ability to store fat. Probiotics in yogurt can make your skin softer and smoother. Yogurt has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal features that get rid of germs and other bacteria. | https://www.glycemic-index.org/health-benefits-of-yogurt.html |

Marriage

Anointing of the Sick (Holy Unction)
Other Sacraments and Blessings
Content: The Sacrament of Marriage bears witness to His action. Through this Sacrament, a man and a woman are publicly joined as husband and wife. They enter into a new relationship with each other, God, and the Church. Since Marriage is not viewed as a legal contract, there are no vows in the Sacrament. According to Orthodox teachings, Marriage is not simply a social institution, it is an eternal vocation of the kingdom. A husband and a wife are called by the holy Spirit not only to live together but also to share their Christian life together so that each, with the aid of the other, may grow closer to God and become the persons they are meant to be. In the Orthodox Marriage Service, after the couple have been betrothed and exchanged rings, they are crowned with "crowns of glory and honor" signifying the establishment of a new family under God. Near the conclusion of the Service, the husband and wife drink from a common cup which is reminiscent of the wedding of Cana and which symbolized the sharing of the burdens and joys of their new life together. Holy Orders
The Holy Spirit preserved the continuity of the Church through the Sacrament of Holy Orders. Through ordination, men who have been chosen from within the Church are set apart by the Church for special service to the Church. | https://www.goarch.org/-/the-sacraments |

How Soldier Pay Compares to Civilian Jobs
A career in the U.S. Army is not only an attractive option for its intangible benefits – leadership skills, strength and a chance to serve one’s country – but also its monetary benefits. Leaders in the armed forces have long recognized the benefits of a well-paid military. In fact, congressional efforts in the past 20 years have greatly increased the average pay of service men and women. "Compensation plays an important role in recruiting, retaining and motivating the men and women in uniform who serve this nation. Without adequate compensation, the nation would be unable to sustain the all-volunteer force, in the size and with the skill sets needed to support the missions called for in the national security strategy." -- Department of Defense 11th Quadrennial Review on Military Compensation
Pay
A Soldier’s base salary is generally determined by his or her rank and years of service. In addition to Basic Pay, Soldiers may also earn additional pay for performing special tasks, or for working certain jobs. Most active duty officers and enlisted Soldiers are eligible for living allowances designed to offset the costs food, clothing, or off-base housing among a long list of others. “The Army provides stability, economic security, educational opportunity and a real chance that you might not have in a lot of other careers to see a lot of different things and be exposed to a lot of different ways of thinking and different cultures.” | https://www.goarmy.com/parents/why-the-army/pay-and-benefits.html |

If you choose to keep a traditional checking account, look for one with no monthly fees or very low monthly fees. For example, the Bank of America Core Checking Account is free if you maintain a monthly balance of $1,500 or make a monthly direct deposit of at least $250. Using your traditional bank to deposit cash and move it to your online bank account might be an easy solution. To get started, go to your traditional bank’s branch or ATM and deposit cash, then move the money electronically from your traditional account to your online account. Wells Fargo, for example, allows bank-to-bank transfers after a verification process, which could take three to five days. Top Offers from our Best Banks of 2021

And instead of shopping at specialty stores, Target, Walmart and Amazon have become the go-to for buying just about everything. With the changing consumer landscape — and yes, the coronavirus pandemic — some of our formerly favorite companies have gone out of business in recent years.

Borders
Year opened: 1971
Year closed: 2011
In a pre-e-reader, pre-Amazon world, browsing books at Borders was an idyllic way to spend an afternoon. The mega-bookstore started out with a single location in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and expanded to hundreds of locations throughout the U.S. during its 40-year run. Borders’ focus on size may have been its downfall, however, NPR reported — the chain continued to emphasize stocking a wide variety of books in-store even as online shopping continued to rise in popularity. The company was no longer profitable after 2006 and closed its doors for good in 2011. | https://www.gobankingrates.com/money/business/favorite-companies-gone-out-business/ |

Content: The idea quickly caught on, and Toys R Us ended up going public in 1978. Business boomed in the ’80s and ’90s, but, ironically, Toys R Us was defeated by the big-box model it had pioneered, with stores like Walmart proving to be a tough competitor in the space. The rise of e-commerce and Amazon further hurt Toys R Us’ bottom line, and the company eventually decided to close all of its U.S. stores in 2018 after declaring bankruptcy, CNN reported. In 2019, much to the delight of anyone who once considered themselves a Toys R Us kid, the beloved toy chain reemerged — but on a much smaller scale. It now operates two mall stores: one in Houston and one in Paramus, New Jersey. More From Your Money

costs
For families looking to avoid both the process and cost of a funeral service, a memorial service offers flexibility and is usually less expensive. A memorial involves a celebration of life, but may vary from a funeral according to the traditions, beliefs, and wishes of the family. Here’s an overview of the average funeral cost typically associated with memorials: According to the National Funeral Directors Association, consumer preference is shifting from traditional burials to cremation. Cremation costs approximately $700. The cost of a cremation urn can vary greatly depending on materials and more. Urns made of resin usually cost from $25 to $160, while urns made of glass or metal often cost from $250 to $700. Green burials have become a popular option. | https://www.gofundme.com/c/blog/cost-of-funeral-services |

How GoGuardian Makes Acknowledgement of Classroom Diversity for K-12 Students Easy
GoGuardian Team
Content: A lack of diversity and inclusiveness in the classroom can lead to students feeling isolated, can lead to increased stress levels for minority or otherwise marginalized students, and cause them to be victims of bullying at higher rates. Minority students, LGBTQ students, and students who engage in behavior that deviates from accepted gender norms are considered at higher risk of being bullied, which can lead to problems with academic performance, decreases in mood, and even suicide attempts. Intentionally creating learning environments in which students are empowered to acknowledge and celebrate differences is paramount to their safe education and protection. Educators agree that teachers who are culturally responsive and proficient, and perhaps diverse themselves, can help address racial disparities in student achievement. Part of an educator’s job is to help students understand the impact of each of their lives on one another and their ability to impact and shape the world at large. By encouraging and celebrating diversity in your classrooms, you can empower students to feel safe, build healthy relationships, and make meaningful impact on others. Safe learning spaces are diverse learning spaces. Below are more specific reasons that diversity should be taught in the classroom. 1. Self-acceptance and confidence

Content: Professor Fischer also provides an interesting perspective on war-related inflations in the 20th century: "Inflation surged after America joined World War I in 1917, then declined after 1919, but to pre-war levels. After World War II, Korea and Vietnam, war-inflations were not followed by a decline at all. Prices continued to climb." Professor Fischer had some interesting things to say about the Korean War: "In its economic impact the Korean War was similar to the world wars that had preceded it. Once again, inflationary pressures surged throughout the world. In 1950, wholesale prices jumped 12% in the United States, 18% in Germany, 21% in Britain, 28% in France, and 32% in Sweden." Professor Fischer discusses the inflation that took place as part of the Vietnam War and as part of the 1973 Yom Kippur War. He says that the Vietnam War was not the pivotal event in the acceleration of inflation during the 1960s, although he admits that the Johnson administration's decision to expand public spending for social welfare at the same time that it fought a major war in Southeast Asia, without a large increase in taxes, was a major miscalculation. | https://www.gold-eagle.com/article/war-and-inflation |

Other economists agree with Professor Fischer's link between inflation and war. James Grant, the respected editor of Grant's Interest Rate Observer, supplies us with the most timely perspective on the effect of war on inflation in the September 14 issue of his newsletter: "War is inflationary. It is always wasteful no matter how just the cause. It is cost without income, destruction financed (more often than not) by credit creation. | https://www.gold-eagle.com/article/war-and-inflation |

Content: Glomerulus
The glomerulus is about 200µm in diameter. It is formed by the invagination of a tuft of capillaries into dilated. Blind end of the nephron, the capillaries are supplied by an “ Afferent arteriole ” and drained by a smaller “ Efferent arteriole ”. The afferent arteriole breaks up into about fifty capillary loops and forms the glomerular tuft which lies within bowman’s capsule, a double-walled epithelial sac. Each nephron starts with a tuft of 6 to 8 renal blood capillaries investigated into the end of a tubule. This structure is named “Glomerulus”. Mesangial cells are common between two neighboring capillaries, and in these locations, the base membrane forms a sheath shared by both capillaries. The cells are contractile and play a role in regulating “ Glomerular filtration ”. They also secrete various substances, take up “ Immune complexes ”, and are involved in the production of glomerular disease. The glomerular membrane permits the free passage of neutral substances up to 4 nm in diameter and almost excludes those with diameters greater than 8nm. | https://www.golifescience.com/structure-of-nephron-functions/ |

Are you giving enough to charity?
So, how much should you give to charity?
Tax doesn’t cover it
Every now and then
When I was your age
Content: Obviously, giving £1 to charity will feel less of a sacrifice to a millionaire than to your average Joe Bloggs. Take J.K Rowling as an example – the world-famous author actually lost her billionaire status after donating an estimated $160 million in charitable donations. This is arguably a ‘generous’ donation because it meant she sacrificed a large proportion of her overall wealth to good causes. Therefore, the value of a ‘generous’ donation to a good cause is relative to what you can afford and are willing to give, and how often. Tax doesn’t cover it
You might be thinking, why should we regularly give to charities anyway? There is the argument that our regular contributions to charities and community projects comes out of the tax we pay to the government, as a certain amount of the government’s budget is always designated to charity funding. However, austerity measures are reducing the funding given to charities, non-profits, public services and schools, which has resulted in a greater dependence from these organisations on donations from the public. As charities and public services struggle to get by with tighter budgets and less funding, it’s understandable to feel the need to give more beyond tax. Thing is, giving to charity is a personal choice as opposed to a social requirement. At the end of the day, we do not have to give to charity if we don’t want to. | https://www.goodbox.com/2019/10/how-much-should-you-give-to-charity/ |

Content: Why Do Companies Give To Charity? Corporate Charitable Giving
November 25, 2019
How Being a Good Business Leads to Good Business
Business philanthropy may seem a relatively new concept in the world of business, but corporate charitable giving has actually been around for some time. In Ancient Rome, businesses were expected to pay taxes to fund military campaigns < (that were believed to be for the good of the Roman populace). And by the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, philanthropy was common amongst the growing number of wealthy middle-class, particularly the new industry owners as a result of industrialisation. A prime example is Thomas John Bernardo, who established hundreds of homes for children to alleviate them from poverty (and who is still a household name thanks to his charitable organisation Barnardos ). However, it wasn’t until the 20th century when community development and social responsibility was recognised as going hand in hand with successful business. George Cadbury, the founder of Cadburys, was one of those thought leaders, founding the Bournville Village Trust in 1900 to provide safe, comfortable living conditions for his workers. He certainly wasn’t alone in this thinking. Today, many companies give generously to charities on a regular basis. But the rise of corporate giving doesn’t answer the question of why companies give to charity in the first place. | https://www.goodbox.com/2019/11/why-do-companies-give-to-charity/ |

Content: Self-care refers to anything you do to improve your wellbeing and happiness. This can include anything from regular exercise to the occasional bubble bath. Usually, we speak of it in the context of doing things for yourself that, technically, don’t need to be done. You don’t need a massage. You don’t need to listen to relaxing music or go out to the movies. Doing these things therefore epitomizes self-care. Some would consider it indulgent, as it isn’t technically productive time. But it does something of far greater value than most of what we consider productive activity. Why Does Self-Care Impact Mental Health? Some forms of self-care are intuitively helpful for mental health. | https://www.goodencenter.org/the-importance-of-self-care-for-mental-health/ |

Content: Make a mix of lemon juice and olive oil. Heat the mixture for a while and soak your nails for around 10-15 minutes. Rubbing your nails with a slice of lemon is also considered as a good idea. But before performing this, make sure your nails have no cuts or bruises as it may sting. 3. Biotin
Proper supply of vitamins is very much essential for maintaining health in general and nail health in specific. In that sense, biotin is a crucial vitamin that is capable of stimulating the growth of nails as it improves the keratin structure. The best way to get biotin is to include them in our diet like eating walnuts, soybeans, almonds, tomatoes, eggs, etc. Biotin supplements are also available in plenty, but make sure you consult a doctor before using them. The slow rate of nail growth and other related abnormalities associated with nails are often linked with a deficiency of biotin. | https://www.goodhealthacademy.com/beauty-tips/9-natural-tips-for-nail-growth-no-1-is-my-favorite/ |

Tomatoes are found to contain a large amount of biotin and lycopene, which is capable of growing your nails and thicken it up naturally to give it a shiny look. Eating tomatoes raw is more effective, as cooking might get rid of the Vitamin C present in it. With tomatoes, you can also make the right quality nail soaks, which will help to grow the nails longer and faster.

Content: It can be used as an adjective: Latinx Americans, Latinx members of the LGBT+ community
It can also be used as a noun: Latinxs in academia often deal with microaggressions and discrimination. It can be used singularly (I am a Latinx woman) or plurally (Latinxs are the fastest growing population in higher education). It can describe individuals (I identify as Latinx) and groups (Latinxs living in Southern California). Why do some people have an issue with the term Latinx? While Latinx is a word created with inclusivity in mind, not everyone supports its use. Some people think that Latinx is an elitist term that is mostly used in academic settings. It has also been called out as a form of “linguistic imperialism,” meaning some think the term Latinx represents English policing the Spanish language in a way that doesn’t correspond with its grammar or conventional way of speaking. Because Latinx doesn’t sound like other words in Spanish, it could also potentially alienate non-English speaking people of Latin American descent. | https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/life/a33806428/what-latinx-means/ |

Content: The use of Latinx and Latine is an act of solidarity and resistance against the violence that racist, sexist, heterosexist, classist, xenophobic, ableist, and other oppressive structures inflict in our communities,” say Aja and Scharrón-del Río. Natalia Sylvester, author of the YA novel Running about a Latinx teen whose father is running for president, says, “The term Latinx may not be a perfect one, but the willingness to change (and more importantly, to listen to the LGBTQ community on this) is vital.” How can I be an ally to Latinx people? Given the escalating violence enacted against Latinx people, allies must step up to the plate. To start, employ the language they ask you to use. Then, listen, align, and act. “To be an ally to Latinx people is to first and foremost acknowledge the term’s legitimacy and respect someone’s choice to use it, even if you choose not to,” says Nicholas Patino, a photographer and community leader based in Miami. Rosenfeld offers an imperative: “ The most important thing to do as an ally is to listen, non-defensively,” she says. “ Support our causes. | https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/life/a33806428/what-latinx-means/ |

Most of the methods for homemade buttermilk that I’ve outlined below start with regular milk (whole milk works best), so you’ll need to at least have that on hand. Cream of Tartar Buttermilk Substitute
Wondering how to make buttermilk from milk? It couldn’t be simpler! Measure 1 3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar plus 1 cup milk. Whisk to combine and let stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes, until curdled and then stir. The mixture then becomes your buttermilk replacement — use the same measurement you need for your given recipe. Lemon Juice Buttermilk Substitute
To make your own buttermilk using lemon juice, you are going to add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to a liquid measuring cup. Then, add regular milk (whole milk works best) until the amount reaches one cup. | https://www.goodlifeeats.com/kitchen-tip-homemade-buttermilk-substitute/ |

Content: White Vinegar Buttermilk Substitute
This method for making a buttermilk replacement is identical to the lemon juice buttermilk substitute, except you’re going to use white vinegar instead. To make a buttermilk substitute using white vinegar, add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to a liquid measuring cup. Then, add milk until the amount reaches 1 cup. Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes. It should look curdled. Stir and you have homemade buttermilk for your buttermilk substitute! Alternatively, if you don’t have fresh milk, you can combine 1/3 cup powdered milk + 1 cup water. Then, add 1 tablespoon white vinegar. Let sit for 10 minutes before using. Buttermilk Powder Buttermilk Substitute
Buttermilk powder is buttermilk that has been pasteurized, then concentrated with an evaporator, and then dried to produce a powder. | https://www.goodlifeeats.com/kitchen-tip-homemade-buttermilk-substitute/ |

Tampering with evidence
What to do if charged without evidence?
Content: Sometimes, a lot of evidence is not enough if they are not powerful enough to convict you. If the trial proceeds, the prosecution must further claim your liability by providing a burden of proof and should prove you are guilty beyond reasonable doubt or a factor that really ties you to the case. Without these, the jury will come up with a decision of not finding you guilty. Know that before an evidence is put out in the court, it undergoes extensive examination and are only allowed to be used if it adheres to the Rules of Court. A live testimony should be from a person with an admissible character and any other evidence should be taken lawfully (i.e., not based on hearsay). An evidence can link you to a crime you could have committed. One example is when a gun is found in the premises of your home. While there already is a probable cause because you are living in the particular place, a gun found in the area with or without a fingerprint can be the final nail in the coffin. Tampering with evidence
Sometimes, a defendant acts like there is no evidence against them because they have already tampered with it. Tampering with evidence only has one goal in mind: | https://www.goodmancriminaldefenseattorney.vegas/criminal-defense-blog/can-a-person-be-charged-without-evidence/ |

Content: You might think that others won’t have a positive response when you open up to them and express yourself. You might have a hard time being true to yourself because you aren’t in touch with your feelings and aren’t sure about to label the emotions that you experience. You might not be sure about what to say in a situation you have never encountered before. Being afraid to stand out is another common issue. Being the center of attention can feel uncomfortable if this isn’t something you do regularly. If you have low self-esteem, you might not know how to express yourself because you believe that your thoughts and feelings aren’t worthy of being expressed. Perfectionism is another common barrier to expressing oneself. If you are a perfectionist, you might feel that you can’t express a thought until you have found the perfect words for it. Perfectionism can also keep you from expressing anything negative because you are overly concerned with projecting the image of someone who is happy and successful. Past experiences can have a huge impact on the negative feelings tied to embracing your uniqueness. | https://www.goodmorningquote.com/how-to-express-yourself/ |

You might not be used to speaking up and being true to yourself, or might have encountered some negative experiences where others judged you for your uniqueness. Deciding to express yourself and embrace who you are is a big step. Deciding to make this change can be intimidating, and it’s natural to experience anxiety at the idea of opening up, especially if this is something you have never tried before. Keep in mind that getting in touch with your emotions and learning to express yourself will make you happier. This process takes time. | https://www.goodmorningquote.com/how-to-express-yourself/ |

Speaking up and embracing your uniqueness can be intimidating because you will have to try new things. Figure out what is stopping you from expressing yourself so you can address this problem. Here are some common fears that often lead to shyness: A fear of not being accepted
A fear of not being perfect
A fear of being the center of attention
You might experience these fears because of negative experiences in your past or because of beliefs that you have internalized. If you have some bad experiences linked to expressing yourself, work on reframing these experiences. Is it possible that you perceived other’s reactions as more negative than they actually were? It’s also important to consider the positive and negative experiences you had. Negative memories tend to carry a heavier weight and have a more significant impact on our thought patterns. Think back on different situations where you opened up. You probably had more positive experiences than negative ones, even though the negative ones affected you more deeply. | https://www.goodmorningquote.com/how-to-express-yourself/ |

Sarcastic Quotes To Help You Nail That Perfect Zinger Every Time
Sarcastic quotes are a great way to help you begin to learn the refined art of sarcasm.
Sarcastic Quotes to Help You Master the Refined Art of Sarcasm
1. “Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.”
-Steven Wright
2. “Sarcasm – the ability to insult idiots without them realizing it.”
-Common quote
3. “Everybody knows how to raise children, except the people who have them.”
– P.J. O’Rourke
4. “I sometimes think that God in creating man somewhat overestimated his ability.”
-Oscar Wilde
5. “Sarcasm helps keep you from telling people what you really think of them.”
-Unknown
6. “Sarcasm: the last refuge of modest and chaste-souled people when the privacy of their soul is coarsely and intrusively invaded.”-Fyodor Dostoevsky
7. “Sarcasm doesn’t read sarcastic in print.”
– Kristen Schaal
8. “Canada has a passive-aggressive culture, with a lot of sarcasm and righteousness. That went with my weird messianic complex. The ego is a fascinating monster. I was taught from a young age that I had to serve, so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.”
-Alanis Morrisette
9. “I’d like to do more stuff with less sarcasm.”
-Sara Gilbert
10. “Old people at weddings always poke me and say, ‘you’re next.’ So I started doing the same thing at funerals.”
Sarcastic quotes can be useful in our daily lives, but their effect must be respected.
Content: Essentially, that is what sarcasm is in an everyday context. And it does often come in handy. We all have people in our lives who just annoy us. Maybe it’s that flaky co-worker who you really, really like, but who you keep having to cover for because she simply doesn’t know anything. Or maybe it’s your ignorant uncle who thinks he’s the world’s smartest man, but indeed is quite the opposite. You get the picture. Rather than telling these people straight out that they don’t know what they are talking about, you can use sarcasm to get your point across. This works to help you deal in a way that does not involve letting the pressure build until you either explode or lose twenty IQ points due to listening to their stupidity, or some combination thereof. After all, stupid people often do not know when they are being made fun of. It gives you a little bit of pleasure and spares their feelings. | https://www.goodmorningquote.com/sarcastic-quotes/ |

Whipping up treats in the kitchen can do more than just create yummy comfort food, according to a growing range of sources in both the culinary and mental health worlds. In fact, baking has been found to have therapeutic value which helps to ease depression and anxiety. And seeing that one in four people will experience a mental health problem at some point in their lives, this wholesome therapy is good for the whole family. But watch the sugar – how about making healthy versions of your favorite treats? 1. COOKING IS MEDITATIVE
Any activity which takes your whole attention – especially if it's simple and repetitive – can have a calming, meditative quality. The process of weighing out butter and sugar, whisking eggs, beating and folding creates space in the mind, and eases negative thinking processes. Photo by Flickr user elana's pantry

Content: Individuals who regularly engage in creative activities often report that they seek such states; the prospect of such "periods of flow" can be so intense that individuals will exert considerable practice and effort, and even tolerate physical or psychological pain, in pursuit thereof. Committed writers may claim that they hate the time spent chained to their desks, but the thought that they would not have the opportunity to attain occasional periods of flow while writing proves devastating.” ― Howard Gardner, Creating Minds: An Anatomy of Creativity as Seen Through the Lives of Freud, Einstein, Picasso, Stravinsky, Eliot, Graham, and Gandhi

Some of the topics that interested him remained on his mind for decades.

Beyond question that combination is important for mastering the agenda of school, but we have gone too far in ignoring the other intelligences.

By minimizing the importance of other intelligences within and outside of schools, we consign many students who fail to exhibit the "proper" blend to the belief that they are stupid, and we do not take advantage of ways in which multiple intelligences can be exploited to further the goals of school and the broader culture.” ― Howard Gardner, The Unschooled Mind: How Children Think and How Schools Should Teach

“Einstein felt that he did not have great mathematical gifts and deliberately chose not to take courses and to continue in that area. The fact that I neglected mathematics to a certain extent had its causes not merely in my stronger interest in science than in mathematics but also in the following strange experience....I saw that mathematics was split up into numerous specialties, each of which could easily absorb the short lifetime granted to us....In physics, however, I soon learned to scent out that which was able to lead to fundamentals and to turn aside from everything else, from the multitude of things that clutter up the mind and divert it from the essential. This capacity to pick out important issues dovetailed with Einstein's search for the most general possible conception.

Content: So in reality the book of the play is probably a three star-it is interesting and funny, saddening, heartfelt, completely Bennettesque (of course) and the dialogue is just superb. But it can only really give you so much and there is very little description beyond the staging, which is fair enough, but not quite enough and the way Bennett writes it (I don't feel like I am worthy of calling him Alan) purposefully in that way means that it's mostly just a book full of dialogue. However, adding the fact that I've seen the film (not the play, which would have been better but sadly cannot be rectified right now) I can add more to my opinion. Every word that Miss Shepherd says is Maggie Smith's-she portrayed her so wonderfully-and convincingly-that I simply can't get her out of my mind. Miss Shepherd the character-saying nothing of the actual real-life person-is superbly cantankerous and annoying, and so utterly devastatingly pitiful. Although she is one woman, she is an amalgamation of women from the previous generation who, via various "ideals" of what women should and should not do, were basically told to be either a Nun or a Wife. She reminds me a lot of those annoying characters you get in sitcoms or comedy films-the ones that usually die first-who are hilarious and fun to see because they're not real and you don't have to put up with them. But Bennett did have to put up with her: for fifteen years until her death from the moment she wheeled her van in to his front garden. It is a wonderful tale, but it's not so much a tale as a long, drawn-out anecdote. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1389703.The_Lady_in_the_Van |

Content: in fact, he almost literally worshiped them, as he himself admitted. But he also had many weaknesses. First, the ‘Great Books’ mindset caused Durant to concentrate his attention overmuch on the high-points in cultural achievement. One gets an extremely skewed picture of European history if one focuses solely on the greatest thinkers and artists. Of course, it is pleasant to contemplate these individuals, which is partly why Durant’s books are so fun to read; but such exclusive concentration also produces a kind of Pollyannish attitude, where history is seen through rose-tinted glasses, and persecutions, wars, and bigotry are not given their due—and the banality of daily life is wholly sidestepped. A related consequence of the ‘Great Books’ attitude is a somewhat reactionary mindset. Since Durant so often equates the old with the good, tradition with right, age with quality, he can be remarkably, and sometimes stupidly, conservative. For example, whenever Durant writes of sexual mores, he comes across as a moralizing Sunday-school teacher. For Durant, promiscuity is immoral, and homosexuality a sin. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/174713.The_Lessons_of_History |

Content: And it stars Latino-Americans. With the possible exception of Cesar Chavez, my education was pretty much lacking in any and all experience with Latino heroes in America. I'm therefore pleased as punch that we've something quite as amazing as Separate is Never Equal to fill in not just my gaps but the gaps of kids all over our nation. Sylvia is going home in tears. Faced with teasing at her new school she tells her mother she doesn’t want to go back. Gently, her mother reminds her that teasing or no, this is exactly what the family fought so hard for for three long years. In 1944 the Mendez family had moved to Westminster, California. When the first day of school approached their Aunt drove five of the kids to the nearby public school. Yet when they arrived she was told that her children, with their light skin and brown hair could attend but that Sylvia and her brothers would have to go to “the Mexican school”. Faced with hugely inferior conditions, the Mendez family decides to fight back. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18405521-separate-is-never-equal |

Content: It gave the Union the courage, will and political force to fight on. Second, Professor McPherson emphasizes the role of the European powers -- England and France -- in the Civil War. These nations followed events in America closely and were economically at risk from the loss of Southern cotton for their textile mills. They likely would have recognized the Confederacy if the results of the first invasion of the North had favored the Confederacy. Third, and probably most importantly to his theme, Professor McPherson discusses the role of Antietam in the changing character of the Civil War. President Lincoln was opposed to slavery, but his initial war aims did not include freeing the slaves. Rather he wished to hold the Union together. As the War continued, Lincoln became convinced of the necessity of issuing an Emancipation Proclamation but believed that he needed a military success to give the Proclamation force and credibility. The victory at Antietam, narrow as it was, and tremendous as was its human cost, gave him that opportunity. Emancipation was indeed a new birth of freedom. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/189657.Crossroads_of_Freedom |

It also, as Professor McPherson points out, changed the character of the War from one with the aim of trying to persuade the South to come back to a state of total War -- which changed the character of a culture and redefined the nature of freedom in the United States. Professor McPherson's book is part of a series called "Pivotal Moments in American History" whose aim is "to encourage interest in problems of historical contingency." There was a great deal of chance involved in the Battle of Antietam, more so than in most military campaigns. ( There were also military blunders on both sides.) During the course of the southern invasion the Union discovered by chance a copy of General Lee's "Special Order No. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/189657.Crossroads_of_Freedom |

I tend to add books to my TBR shelf pretty indiscriminately and then can't remember where I got the notion from. Which is unfortunate in cases such as this where I wish I could find out who or what recommended this to me in the first place so I can ensure that I ignore any future recommendations. I hate to be negative, and I hate to give a one star rating but the writing was so terrible that it made my teeth itch. No redeeming features whatsoever.

Content: Ban This Book has a simple premise, a well meaning mother wants books removed from an elementary school library for various reasons that are important to her. However, when avid reader Amy Anne learns her favorite novel is on the list, the quiet little book worm takes action. Amy Anne enlists help from her friends Danny and Rebecca to save the books from being banned. This novel made me sad, angry, and helpless as I read, because I know many books are banned daily in schools across the US. However, I also felt hopeful, because there are Amy Anne's who can help fight the good fight to protect our right to read ALL books. Amy Anne said it best. " Nobody has the right to tell you what books you can and can't read. Except your parents." I'm so thankful to NetGalley for allowing me to be an early reader of this novel in exchange for a fair and honest review. I'm also thankful to Alan Gratz for continuing to tackle important issues in his novels. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31702735-ban-this-book |

When school boards start banning books because they don't like their content or ideas, it's time for them to go. In our local district, I believe Barbara Kingsolver's The Poisonwood Bible was removed from the high school curriculum for a period for its purported anti-Christian bias. | https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31702735-ban-this-book |

Content: This book was written in 1971, and the neoclassical understanding of collective action has, as far as I can tell, not been substantially advanced since then—in over 40 years, the essential conclusions haven't changed. This would not be a problem, of course, if those conclusions were correct; but they aren't. Indeed they are wrong at a fundamental level; they are almost literally reversed from the truth. Here is the basic argument: 1. The interests of a group are not the same as the interests of its individual members.
