Q. Why is methylcobalamin better than cyanocobalamin?
Q. Who should take vitamin B supplements?
Content: Most vitamin B supplements are either capsules or tablets. Some say that capsules are easier for the body to digest than tablets, but this isn’t always the case. Choose the form that you prefer. There are also some liquid vitamin B supplements available for those who have trouble swallowing pills. Serving size: Vitamin B supplements are usually not large, and most only have a single tablet or capsule per serving. However, you might need to take two or more pills per serving if the supplement you choose has a number of extras like probiotics, enzymes, and other vitamins or minerals. If you don’t like taking pills, check the label to determine how large the pills are and how many you will need to take in order to get a full serving. Go with a supplement that offers the ingredients you want in the smallest serving size. Daily values: | https://bestreviews.com/best-vitamin-b-supplements |

About The Author
Content: One moment you feel like your finances are completely in control, and the next moment your car breaks down and you have to pay for a new transmission. It’s in moments like this, that you will really feel the consequences of not budgeting. You see, without a budget, it is much harder to manage the financial repercussions that an unexpected expense can have on your life. It could end up causing you to miss bill payments, or even go into debt in order to make ends meet. Meanwhile, if you just take the time to budget and prepare for unexpected expenses, you can drastically reduce the impact they have on your life. 7. Less Financial Contentment
When you don’t live on a budget, it’s easy to lose focus on your own financial goals, and instead, find yourself comparing your life to others. The unintended consequence of this, is that it leads to negative financial behaviors like spending beyond your means, and taking on debt to purchase things you can’t afford. Instead of trying to improve your financial situation, you end up trying to keep up with others that have a bigger house, or nicer car than you. It’s toxic. | https://bethebudget.com/consequences-of-not-budgeting/ |

But the good news is that budgeting can help prevent it. 8. More Stress
I think the overarching consequence of not budgeting is an increase in stress. Think about it. Whether you’re unprepared for unexpected expenses, you feel like you’ve lost financial control, you spend beyond your means, you’re buried in debt, and you’re unfulfilled with your financial life, it’s stressful. | https://bethebudget.com/consequences-of-not-budgeting/ |

Content: Antibiotics can make you more sensitive to foods that already cause a mild allergic For example, if you are normally slightly sensitive to eggs, then you should avoid combining eggs and antibiotics. Some other foods that are known to cause inflammation, stomach upset, or other reactions that may be exacerbated by antibiotics include chocolate, sugar, and spicy foods. What to eat with antibiotics
Antibiotics are designed to kill harmful bacteria, but unfortunately, they also destroy the helpful bacteria in your gut that aids digestion. This can cause abdominal upset, cramping, and diarrhea. Knowing what to eat with antibiotics is important, because there are some foods that can alleviate these uncomfortable side effects when eaten with or after a course of antibiotics. Probiotics : Probiotics introduce healthy bacteria back into your digestive system. Because they replace the bacteria that normally live in your gut rather than simply masking symptoms, probiotics are the most effective remedy for antibiotic-induced diarrhea. You can take supplements or eat foods that contain active and live probiotic cultures. Examples include yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi, along with other fermented beverages and foods. | https://betterhealthkare.com/foods-to-avoid-on-antibiotics/ |

The Potential Negative Effects Of Agriculture On The Environment, & The Sustainable Use Of Resources
March 1, 2021 January 21, 2019 by Better Meets Reality
Agriculture provides a long list of benefits to society, and is an essential industry for some key reasons ( it’s impact on the economy, employment and other sectors like food and fibre manufacturing being some of the main ones ). But, there can be some downsides to agricultural production as well. In this guide, we list some of the negative effects agriculture can have on the environment and the sustainable use of resources. Summary – Environmental & Sustainable Use Of Resource Problems Resulting From Agriculture
Agriculture can result in or contribute to a whole range of environmental issues, including but not limited to water pollution, air pollution, land degradation, soil contamination, deforestation and land use, general waste pollution, and a changing climate. The causes for these environmental issues vary. Agriculture can also contribute to the unsustainable use of resources through the use of resources like agricultural land (grazing land and cropland), topsoil, irrigated water, synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and the raw materials that go into making some of these resources (like for example the mined resources that go into making potash fertilizer)
There’s also more controversial issues like the use of genetically modified seeds and crops used in agriculture that may or may not have an impact on the environment and sustainability
Sustainable agriculture is one solution that has been proposed to help address some of the current issues related to conventional farming
*Note – this is a generalized guide only. Ultimately, environmental and resource sustainability problems are specific to individual farms, geographic locations, agricultural methods and processes used, types of agricultural products being grown or produced, and many more variables and factors. Agriculture Impacts Many Different Aspects Of The Environment & Society
The environmental impact of agriculture involves a variety of factors from the soil, to water, the air, animal and soil variety, people, plants, and the food itself. – wikipedia.org

Content: Agriculture can also contribute to the unsustainable use of resources through the use of resources like agricultural land (grazing land and cropland), topsoil, irrigated water, synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and the raw materials that go into making some of these resources (like for example the mined resources that go into making potash fertilizer)
There’s also more controversial issues like the use of genetically modified seeds and crops used in agriculture that may or may not have an impact on the environment and sustainability
Sustainable agriculture is one solution that has been proposed to help address some of the current issues related to conventional farming
*Note – this is a generalized guide only. Ultimately, environmental and resource sustainability problems are specific to individual farms, geographic locations, agricultural methods and processes used, types of agricultural products being grown or produced, and many more variables and factors.

A Changing Climate & Greenhouse Gases
Globally, agriculture might lead all industries in methane and nitrous oxide emissions. There’s several ways that agriculture contributes to a changing climate: – First, there’s the clearing of land of trees and vegetation to convert them into farms, ranches and agricultural land. Trees and vegetation are a carbon sink
– Second, the clearing of land and the change of land use changes the composition of the Earth’s surface, and can chance the way it absorbs and reflects/releases heat
– Third, there are greenhouse gases that are emitted from the use of fertilizers – like for example, nitrous oxide being released from nitrogen based synthetic fertilizers. – There is also the manufacturing stage of fertilizers to consider and the associated emissions
– Fourth, there are greenhouse gases that are emitted from the use of pesticides – at the manufacturing stage, and at the usage stage. Although, emissions from pesticides are likely largely being ignored right now in some agricultural GHG emissions data
– Fifth, there are greenhouse gases that are emitted from livestock – from …

The climate and weather have a give and take relationship with a changing climate: Agricultural activity on one hand can contribute to climate change
But, a changing climate and weather patterns – a change in temperature, changing rainfall patterns, and so on – can change growing seasons, can change yields and production, can change crop suitability in a region, and more
Deforestation & Land Use
When land is cleared to make agriculture, or logging, palm oil plantations, and other uses – forests and vegetation can be cleared in some regions
Linked to a changing climate – specifically a change in land use, and the removal of tree and vegetation carbon sinks
Other effects of deforestation for agriculture might include: When trees are removed from forests, the soils tend to dry out because there is no longer shade, and there are not enough trees to assist in the water cycle by returning water vapor back to the environment. With no trees, landscapes that were once forests can potentially become barren deserts. The removal of trees also can also [cause] extreme fluctuations in temperature. – wikipedia.org

Land Degradation, & Soil Degradation
There’s many different types of land and soil degradation – but, physical and chemical degradation and contamination can be two broad categories
Intensive and unsustainable farming practices can degrade the land over time
Some examples of these practices might include overgrazing, harvesting that involves regularly disturbing and breaking up the soil, the use of agricultural chemicals that kills off beneficial soil microorganisms, not focussing on practices that preserve soil health, and more
Agriculture can cause a loss in soil quality and soil degradation
This can take many forms such as salting, waterlogging, compaction, pesticide contamination, decline in soil structure quality, loss of fertility, changes in soil acidity, alkalinity, salinity, and erosion (when the fertile topsoil is washed away)
This is a problem because soils hold the majority of the world’s biodiversity, and healthy soils are essential for food production and an adequate water supply. Soil degradation also impacts biological degradation, which affects the microbial community of the soil and can alter nutrient cycling, pest and disease control, and chemical transformation properties of the soil. – wikipedia.org
Irrigation can also cause problems with soil: Soil can become over irrigated and cause problems with yields and soil health
Over irrigation can cause deep drainage issues and salinity problems
Under irrigation can also cause soil salinity control issues
Irrigation with contaminated, high salt or unbalanced water can also cause soil health and crop damage issues

Pollution – Water Pollution, Air Pollution, & Land Pollution
There’s many ways agriculture can cause pollution, such as: Agriculture is one of the leading causes of water pollution in the world – in particular nutrient pollution of nitrates and phosphates. Water pollution mainly occurs from the run off (from the rain which washes through the soil and into water sources like ground water and rivers) of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides and even livestock manure and waste. Pesticide can also drift in the air and settle in nearby water sources. Air pollution from synthetic nitrogen fertilizers but also animal waste in agriculture emit ammonia gas, and there can be a secondary reaction in the air with oxides to create air pollution
Land pollution, and soil contamination comes from general agricultural waste, but also soil contamination can come from the heavy use of chemicals like pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers
Pollution and contamination in agriculture can occur from sediments, nutrients, pathogens, pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, metals, salts, animal manure (bacteria and pathogens) and more
Poorly managed animal feeding operations, overgrazing, plowing, and improper, excessive, or badly timed use of pesticides or fertilizers are some activities that release these chemicals and substances
Tillage, fertilization, and pesticide application also releases ammonia, nitrate, phosphorus, and there are many other pesticides that affect air, water, and soil quality, as well as biodiversity. Agricultural chemicals can leave residue on food, can leach through ground soil and into freshwater reserves as well as the ocean, can be blown through the air, can transfer from one water source to another – and can basically spread via a wide range of sources and impact a wide range of organisms and environments. | https://bettermeetsreality.com/the-potential-negative-effects-of-agriculture-on-the-environment/ |

Aquatic environments can be some of the hardest hit environments
Pesticide drift (soil contamination, and air spray drift), pesticides based on organochloride, pesticide residue on foods, pesticide toxicity to bees and other non target species, and bioremediation are a list of problems associated with the release of chemicals from agriculture

Content: It was a luxury only available to the rich. Soon, their aromas and practices spread to Persia, Greece, and Rome. Some of the earlier scents included coriander, myrtle, lavender, and rosemary. Yet, it wasn’t until 1190 AD that liquid scents known as parfum were produced and sold in Paris commercially. From there, fragrances have become almost as synonymous with movie stars and images of beautiful people showing off their beautiful diamonds on our television screens. How Is It Made? After I did a little digging, it seems that the standard way of making fragrance in today’s commercial industry is to first extract oils from plants and petals in one of the following ways. Steam Distillation
This is a method used to extract essential oils. This process is completed when the flowers or stems that hold the scent the chemist is trying to capture are put into a pot with water and boiled. The steam rises up, moves through a pipe where it is cooled and then it is collected in a container at the other end. | https://bettermindbodysoul.com/best-essential-oils-for-perfume-reviews/ |

To be an effective team leader or company owner, you need to be fluent in all three forms of communication. It is hard to motivate people if you stand with your arms crossed over your chest and your head down. These indicate that you are a closed off individual and are not confident in your ability to efficiently convey the necessary information. Check The Price
15 Most Effective Communications Techniques and Strategies
Communication is becoming more and more difficult to master, because so few people actually utilize the three forms. While people are constantly connected, they are also detached by their heavy reliance on smart phones and other mobile devices. Here we’ve collected the top 15 communication techniques and strategies designed to help you learn to communicate properly. The Silent Treatment
Surprisingly, remaining silent can be one of the most effective strategies for communication, especially if are trying to entice someone to share more information with you. Instead of immediately answering after your partner’s completed statement, remain silent but attentive. This can actually encourage people to volunteer more information than they would have done otherwise. | https://bettermindbodysoul.com/effective-communication-techniques/ |

No matter how much information is readily volunteered, you will never learn everything you need to know without asking a few questions. What type of questions should you be asking? Closed-ended questions are designed to get a simple yes or no response. This can be a good tool if you need to gather basic information quickly or want to obtain an answer without a long or drawn out explanation. | https://bettermindbodysoul.com/effective-communication-techniques/ |

A class or seminar on active listening is one of the most effective ways to improve your listening skills, and by proxy, your communication skills as well. Feedback
Feedback is an important part of communication, both from your intended recipients and from you.

While keeping the heel of the jigsaw shoe in contact with the drywall, gently push the blade into the wall until it breaks through the material. At this point, you can continue until you have the shoe fully in contact with the drywall, and you can finish the cut. TIP! If you find that you have to do continue the plunge cut over a stud, you can also tilt back the jigsaw to pull the blade at an angle and continue the cut that way. For a rectangular opening, you have two ways of finishing the cut. You can cut all four sides with the jigsaw and finish the cut-out that way. Another way is to cut three sides, and then take the drywall knife and score the last side to finish the cut-out. Knock out the piece of drywall from the rest of the work piece to open up the hole. | https://bettertoolz.com/how-to-cut-drywall-with-a-jigsaw/ |

Content: How much vitamin B should you take? Who might take B vitamins? What causes a vitamin B deficiency? What are B vitamins? Vitamin B isn’t one vitamin but eight different ones. Each B vitamin has a number and name, but some are better known by their number or their name, rather than both. Vitamin B1
Vitamin B2
Vitamin B3 (known as niacin)
Vitamin B5 (known as pantothenic acid)
Vitamin B6
Vitamin B7 (known as biotin)
Vitamin B9 (known as folate/folic acid)
Vitamin B12
With most of these B vitamins, your intake relies on the foods you eat and any supplements you take, as your body doesn’t produce them naturally. All eight B vitamins play their own role in supporting your metabolism, enabling your body to produce energy and generally keeping you in good health. But they have other benefits too, as we explain

B-complex supplements make it easier for you to manage your vitamin B intake, by combining all eight B vitamins into a single tablet. B vitamins are water soluble, which means they dissolve in water. Because of this, your body is unable to store them—as it does with minerals and fat soluble vitamins such as vitamin D and vitamin A—and so needs to replenish its supply each day. Some B-complex supplements contain your full recommended daily allowance (RDA) of each B vitamin, while others provide even higher doses.

Sacraments of service
Holy Orders
Matrimony
When people discuss the Last Rites, they are mainly referring to three of these sacraments: the Eucharist (communion, or "Viaticum"), Anointing the Sick and Reconciliation (penance). These Last Rites are administered to a Catholic before they pass away. How are Last Rites administered? The way in which Last Rites are administered varies greatly depending on the specific circumstances. The ritual will differ depending on whether or not the dying person is able to speak and in good standing with the Church. Ideally, a priest administers the final blessing to a dying Catholic. However, other Catholics may perform Last Rites if a priest is not available. ( Shutterstock)
Last Rites are typically administered by a priest, who will perform a series of rituals with the dying Catholic. | https://beyondthedash.com/blog/cultural-spotlight/the-significance-of-a-dying-catholic-s-last-rites/7233 |

Content: To solve that problem, it’s best to take down Flappy Bird. It’s gone forever.” Nguyen, who has other popular games in the iOS store, denied receiving any threats from Nintendo, and said that wasn’t the reason he removed the app, adding that in case any of his games becomes equally addictive as Flappy Bird, he will not hesitate to also pull them from stores. In addition to guilt related to Flappy Bird’s addictiveness, Nguyen says his life was not “as comfortable as I was before,” and that he couldn’t sleep because of the app. Thus, removing the app isn’t a mistake according to him, as he has “thought it through.” Nguyen’s increased popularity may have indeed become a burden for the developer. Forbes reveals that he agreed to talk to the publication only on condition that photos of him would not be shown, and then was delayed as the developer met with Vietnam’s deputy prime minister Vu Duc Dam on the same day. Recent reports revealed that Nguyen has received death threats for pulling the app. The app developer would not confirm how much money he made with Flappy Bird, although some estimates say he may have collected as much as $50,000 per day from ads – the app was available as a free download – and said he would continue to develop games. Flappy Bird can still be played on the devices it’s installed on, and a web-based clone and a Pebble app version are also available to users. | https://bgr.com/2014/02/11/why-flappy-bird-was-removed/ |

Content: 1. The Woman Who Wears It Is Uncomfortable
Nothing seems too ridiculous for many to put on the body. The kinds of clothing that many women are wearing today are outrageous beyond words. The clothes are usually tight and uncomfortable and immodest and inadequate. Women seem to be constantly tugging and stretching and pulling and changing positions—uncertain of what is visible. The person wearing a short skirt often cannot relax. Some finally give up their efforts to cover their knees, and simply expose their legs as freely as their face. Girls that wear immodest clothes (shorts, short dresses, see-through blouses, low-cut dresses) are somewhat embarrassed at first. But as they grow older, their blush is gone, their modesty is gone, and in some cases their virtue is gone too. Many young girls who wear various types of scanty clothing, don’t completely realize the effect that abbreviated clothing has on the opposite sex. | https://biblehelpsinc.org/publication/the-hazards-of-immodest-dress/ |

Content: Nearly all the officers answered these questions with an unqualified “Yes.” Women simply cannot parade about, exposing their bodies to the opposite sex—without inviting abuse. A man can be provoked into thinking what he doesn’t want to think. One cannot dangle raw meat in front of a hungry lion and not expect him to attack. And just so, to tantalize young men with displays of the female body, is downright cruel. It isn’t honest to expose a man to the aroma of steak and apple pie, and then accuse him of being a glutton because he licks his lips. That’s why a young girl came home in anger one day and told her parents that a man had spoken to her in a disrespectful way and had insulted her. The girl’s father (who in some ways must have been a sensible man) reminded her that her scanty immodest dress made her as much to blame as the man who uttered the insults. Girls who want to be respected and who seek a happy life should not dress in a way that displays all the charms of the figure, and then go about their duties in society expecting to come home safely and without being the victims of abuse. It must be stated clearly however, that men will answer to God also for their preoccupation with evil glances and smutty remarks and immoral conduct. | https://biblehelpsinc.org/publication/the-hazards-of-immodest-dress/ |

Those miserable lust-buzzards who eye every woman they meet and gush over silly females walking down the street—are headed for the pit of damnation, unless there’s some real repentance and turning toward God. Men too, should avoid tendencies toward nakedness. When men strut around wearing only the briefest of shorts, this is far from modesty. When at picnic tables or at their places of work, they appear stripped to the waist, it is hard to believe that such an appearance represents an attire that “becometh saints.” 3. | https://biblehelpsinc.org/publication/the-hazards-of-immodest-dress/ |

Find New Life in Christ
While secular psychology offers many self-improvement techniques, none produce the transformation God desires. True heart change is only possible through new spiritual birth—becoming a new creation in Christ—which produces lasting change. (read more)
Acknowledge Sin
Many “experts” claim that bad behavior is not really the fault of the one who does it. The Bible says all problems (family, finances, career, relationships) can be traced to a single source: life-dominating sin. Heart change involves taking responsibility for one’s own actions, not blaming others. ( read more)
Offer Genuine Repentance
Sincere repentance is a process involving five aspects that blend into a genuine spiritual turnaround. Five prayers illustrate this process: “God, I am wrong.” “I am sorry.” | https://biblicalcounselinginsights.com/living-gods-way/ |

Encourage High Standards, Not Perfection
Teach Your Child “The Power of Yet”
Be an Example of Someone Who’s Not Perfect
Emphasize the Fun
Recognize Negative Thoughts
More Helpful Strategies for Dealing with Perfectionism
Content: Understand this distinction, and convey it to your child as well. Children take cues from their parents when it comes to perfectionism: If your child feels you expect perfection, they will strive to be “perfect” to gain your approval. Avoid using the word “perfect” altogether, even as praise. This can cause children to feel they MUST achieve at an impossibly high level. If, for example, your child brings home a report card with all As and one B, don’t focus on the B. Pushing your child to achieve perfection can hurt both confidence and performance. Help your child set goals and standards that are reachable with effort and don’t push the impossible perfection standard. Teach Your Child “The Power of Yet”
Another way to combat perfectionism is to teach your child about “the power of yet.” When your child says they can’t do something or haven’t achieved something, chime in with those three letters: “ YET!” | https://biglifejournal.com/blogs/blog/perfectionist-child |

Content: St. Lucia
Looking for places to go for an anniversary? St. Lucia has recently earned the top spot in the Caribbean for couples looking for romantic beaches and all-inclusive, secluded hotels. The variety of activities available for couples here is what makes it one of the best Caribbean destinations, we think. Fly above St. Lucia and you’ll immediately be taken aback by how diverse the coastline is. From remote fishing villages and impressive reef-diving resorts to volcanic beaches and luxury resorts, there’s something here for everybody, even if you’re travelling alone. 6. St. Kitts
The lush, dramatic coastline of St. Kitts makes it feel more like you’re visiting some tropical island in Asia or even Hawaii. In fact, the Mount Liamuiga hike is one of the best volcano hikes in the entire Caribbean. The dense rainforests and a unique black-sand beach make St. Kitts truly special when compared to other top Caribbean destinations. However, what we truly love about this island, and what’s going to propel it to super-stardom in 2020, are the vibes. | https://bigseventravel.com/2019/09/hottest-caribbean-destinations-2020/ |

34 years ago, a KGB defector chillingly predicted modern America
A disturbing interview given by a KGB defector in 1984 describes America of today and outlines four stages of mass brainwashing used by the KGB.
Loading your audio article
Content: In 1984, Bezmenov gave an interview to G. Edward Griffin from which much can be learned today. His most chilling point was that there's a long-term plan put in play by Russia to defeat America through psychological warfare and "demoralization". It's a long game that takes decades to achieve but it may already be bearing fruit. Bezmenov made the point that the work of the KGB mainly does not involve espionage, despite what our popular culture may tell us. Most of the work, 85% of it, was "a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare." What does that mean? Bezmenov explained that the most striking thing about ideological subversion is that it happens in the open as a legitimate process. " You can see it with your own eyes," he said. The American media would be able to see it, if it just focused on it. Here's how he further defined ideological subversion: | https://bigthink.com/paul-ratner/34-years-ago-a-kgb-defector-described-america-today |

What’s more, Watts, who is now a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute and has tracked these tactics for over three years, says the Russian efforts did not stop at the election and are still continuing to try to engage with and support the President’s tweets. "If you went online today, you could see these accounts — either bots or actual personas somewhere — that are trying to connect with the administration. They might broadcast stories and then follow up with another tweet that tries to gain the president's attention, or they'll try and answer the tweets that the president puts out,” he told NPR. As far as who specifically is guiding these activities by the Russians, Watts says it’s a “diffuse network” with a number of hackers controlled by “different parts of Russian intelligence and propagandists — all with general guidelines about what to pursue, but doing it at different times and paces and rhythms." Watts also testified that in 2014 Russian bots supported a petition on the White House website calling to give Alaska back to Russia, from whom Alaska was purchased 150 years ago. That set off an investigation showing how Russia used bots and paid trolls to spread its propaganda. According to Watts, there are 5 ways in which Russian active measures are designed to topple democracy: 1. Undermine citizen confidence in democratic governance

Another line of investigation by the Senate Intelligence Committee concerns the reported use of an army of internet trolls working from a Russian facility to send targeted fake news to specific regions of America. Senator Mark Warner (D) said that their committee was investigating the information that the trolls were taking over computers called “ botnets ” which had the ability to generate regional news. “It’s been reported to me, and we’ve got to find this out, whether they were able to affect specific areas in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, where you would not have been receiving off of whoever your vendor might have been, Trump versus Clinton, during the waning days of the election, but instead, ‘Clinton is sick’, or ‘Clinton is taking money from whoever for some source’ … fake news,” stated Warner. What is the payoff Russia may be looking for by taking active measures during the 2016 U.S. election? Eugene Rumer thinks the operation was a “major” and “unqualified” success for the Kremlin, causing unprecedented chaos within the U.S. and worsening its position worldwide. "The payoff includes, but is not limited to a major political disruption in the United States, which has been distracted from many strategic pursuits; | https://bigthink.com/paul-ratner/the-primer-on-russias-active-measures |

The Media Bias Chart provides an easy way to digest an otherwise complex media landscape. The website also rates weekly articles, so readers can examine how different news sources spin the major story of the day. However, it is only one tool that looks toward a particular bias spectrum in our media. There are more. New York Times columnist David Leonhardt identifies six forms of media bias. In addition to the right and left political biases, he showcases the centrist bias (both sides must always be equal in blame regardless of the circumstances), the affluent bias (national journalist tend to be more affluent than the average), the newness bias (events that are new seem more important), and social biases (sexism, racism, ageism, and so on). To detect bias and skewed information, the media watch group FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting) recommends asking following questions of news content and the sources containing them: Who are the sources? Is there a lack of diversity? From whose point of view is the news reported? | https://bigthink.com/politics-current-affairs/media-bias-chart |

In George Orwell’s dystopian novel ‘1984’, the world is ruled by three superstates: • Oceania covers the entire continents of America and Oceania and the British Isles, the main location for the novel, in which they are referred to as ‘Airstrip One’. • Eurasia covers Europe and (more or less) the entire Soviet Union. • Eastasia covers Japan, Korea, China and northern India. Unfortunately, there’s not much ‘super’ to these states except their size. All three are totalitarian dictatorships. Oceania’s ideology is Ingsoc (English Socialism), Eurasia’s Neo-Bolshevism and Eastasia’s is the Obliteration of the Self (one imagines some kind of buddhist-inspired fascism. If one can). | https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/66-the-world-in-george-orwells-1984 |

A dissident book central to ‘1984’ suggests the two other powers may actually be a fabrication of the government of Oceania, which would make it the world government. Or, on the other side of the scale of thinkable alternatives: Airstrip One is not an outpost of a greater empire, but the sole territory under the command of Ingsoc, which fabricates eternal global war to keep its people permanently mobilised, scrutinised and on rations.

Three Steps We Can Take to Solve Poverty, From Someone Who Knows Firsthand
Three recommendations for solving poverty
1. Provide living wages and family-oriented labor policies
2. Invest in a safety net that supports and promotes economic mobility
Improve the overall safety net in five ways
3. Invest in community solutions, run by people who know poverty firsthand
Content: Let me tell you something that everyone who has ever been on public assistance knows. When families start to make a little bit more money on the job, they lose benefits too quickly. It creates an economic shock. Then families are worse off. This makes it practically impossible to build our way out of poverty. We need to fix the system so that we can get out of poverty. My friend Barbie experienced this firsthand when she got a job helping people apply for SNAP benefits. She was so happy to finally have stable — and fulfilling — employment. But her small increase in wages made her lose benefits so quickly that her family felt the effects of hunger more severely than before. This falling off the cliff caused her great depression and stress and more suffering for her kids. | https://billmoyers.com/2014/07/11/three-steps-we-can-take-to-solve-poverty-from-someone-who-knows-firsthand/ |

The “Work First” policy doesn’t work. “ Work First” to us means pushing us into low-wage jobs that get us nowhere, with no hope for a future, no hope for escape from poverty. There are not enough opportunities to improve our educations so we can make better wages.

Content: Extreme inequality requires the disempowerment of workers. Therefore, the right of workers to organize and bargain collectively for better pay and conditions is a global human rights priority. Despite Article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights — which declares the right to organize as a fundamental human right — workers worldwide, including in the United States, still face intimidation, fear and retribution for attempting to organize collectively. Where unions are strong, wages are higher and inequality is lower. 6. Stop Other Labor Abuses
Companies worldwide are also replacing what was once permanent and stable employment with temporary and contingent labor. Often called “contingent” or “precarious” workers, these workers fill a labor need that is permanent while being denied the status of employment. In the United States, this trend is called “misclassification,” in which employers misclassify workers as “independent contractors” when they are actually employees. Contingent labor also occurs through outsourcing, subcontracting and use of employment agencies. 7. | https://billmoyers.com/2015/03/03/eight-ways-reduce-income-inequality/ |

Negotiating international trade agreements behind closed doors with only bureaucrats and corporate lobbyists present has to end. These old-style trade agreements are fundamentally undemocratic and put corporate profits above workers, the environment, health and the public interest. We need a new, transparent trade policy that is open, transparent and accountable to the people. 8. A New Economics? | https://billmoyers.com/2015/03/03/eight-ways-reduce-income-inequality/ |

Content: If you don’t like any of the candidates running for president today, you can blame over 70 percent of your fellow Americans. That’s because just 28.5 percent of estimated eligible voters cast a ballot in the 2016 Republican and Democratic primaries. While a record number of Americans have voted ahead of Election Day, with at least 46.27 million people casting ballots by early voting, according to Associated Press data, voter turnout in America is notoriously dismal compared to other developed countries. In August, Pew Research ranked the US 31 out of 35 countries on voter turnout based on the voting age population among nations that are part of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. Voting in America
Number of Americans registered to vote in 2016: 200 million
Estimated number of voting-age Americans who won’t cast a ballot: 80 to 100 million
Percentage of eligible voters who cast a ballot in the 2012 presidential elections: 53.6 percent
Percentage who turned out in 2014 elections: 36.4 percent

Content: You’ve heard the fears: people will vote using a fake identity, vote more than once, sell their votes or vote when they’re actually ineligible. Voter mistakes, however, are not fraud. Even bad judgment and pranks — such as when a Florida woman registered her poodle, Cocoa Fernandez, as a Republican — aren’t fraud if they aren’t part of an effort to sway the vote. Election Fraud: This is the most broadly defined of the three terms, and actually includes both voter fraud and voter suppression. The Department of Justice identifies 12 ways an election can be corrupted — but it’s extremely rare that this fraud is committed by the voter who lines up at the polls. It is much more likely to be at the hands of election officials, campaign workers, advocacy groups or the candidates themselves. Tactics include stuffing the ballot box, forging absentee ballots, falsifying tallies or conspiring to prevent people from voting by intimidation or other means. And that brings us to…
Overzealous efforts to fight voter fraud can also lead to voter suppression. | https://billmoyers.com/story/voter-fraud-explained/ |

Overzealous efforts to fight voter fraud can also lead to voter suppression. Voter Suppression: Voter suppression can be a hard-knuckled, partisan ploy to prevent certain people from registering to vote or getting to the polls. For example, on Election Day 2010, some 112,000 voters in mostly African-American voting districts in Maryland received robocalls authorized by the campaign manager for the Republican candidate for governor. The Election Day calls claimed that the incumbent, Martin O’Malley, had won and there was no need to vote. “ Our goals have been met,” said a recorded voice, “We’re okay. | https://billmoyers.com/story/voter-fraud-explained/ |

Content: In 2006, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales fired nine US attorneys, and others resigned, in part because some of them refused to pursue phony voter-fraud cases. The scandal would ultimately cost Gonzales his job. “ As I wrote at the time, firing a prosecutor for not prosecuting voter fraud is like firing a park ranger for not finding Sasquatch. If it’s not there, it’s not there,” Waldman told BillMoyers.com earlier this year. After Republicans won back control of the House of Representatives in 2010, the chorus decrying voter fraud boomed even louder. And in a 2013 decision, Shelby County v. Holder, the Supreme Court struck down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act that had prevented states with a history of racist voting laws from putting in place new voting restrictions without federal permission. A new report by The Leadership Conference, a civil rights group, finds that since that decision, North Carolina, Arizona, Florida, Georgia and Virginia, in the name of ballot integrity, have all engaged in deceptive and sophisticated practices to disenfranchise voters in ways that may impact the 2016 election.

Content: Propagation of an action potential along the sarcolemma enters the T-tubules. For the action potential to reach the membrane of the SR, there are periodic invaginations in the sarcolemma, called T-tubules (“T” stands for “transverse”). The arrangement of a T-tubule with the membranes of SR on either side is called a triad (Figure 15.4. 3 ). The triad surrounds the cylindrical structure called a myofibril, which contains actin and myosin. The T-tubules carry the action potential into the interior of the cell, which triggers the opening of calcium channels in the membrane of the adjacent SR, causing Ca + + to diffuse out of the SR and into the sarcoplasm. It is the arrival of Ca + + in the sarcoplasm that initiates contraction of the muscle fiber by its contractile units, or sarcomeres.

Figure 15.4. 3: Narrow T-tubules permit the conduction of electrical impulses. The SR functions to regulate intracellular levels of calcium. Two terminal cisternae (where enlarged SR connects to the T-tubule) and one T-tubule comprise a triad—a “threesome” of membranes, with those of SR on two sides and the T-tubule sandwiched between them. Excitation-contraction coupling
Although the term excitation-contraction coupling confuses or scares some students, it comes down to this: for a skeletal muscle fiber to contract, its membrane must first be “excited”—in other words, it must be stimulated to fire an action potential. The muscle fiber action potential, which sweeps along the sarcolemma as a wave, is “coupled” to the actual contraction through the release of calcium ions ( Ca + +) from the SR. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Human_Biology/Book%3A_Human_Biology_(Wakim_and_Grewal)/15%3A_Muscular_System/15.4%3A_Muscle_Contraction |

The jejunum is the middle part of the small intestine, connecting the duodenum and the ileum. The jejunum is about 2.5 m (8.2 ft) long. Its main function is the absorption of the products of digestion, including sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids. Absorption occurs by simple diffusion (water and fatty acids), facilitated diffusion (the simple sugar fructose), or active transport (amino acids, small peptides, water-soluble vitamins, and most glucose). All nutrients are absorbed into the blood except for fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins, which are absorbed into the lymph. Although most nutrients are absorbed in the jejunum, there are a few exceptions: Iron is absorbed in the duodenum. Vitamin B12 and bile salts are absorbed in the ileum. Water and lipids are absorbed throughout the small intestine, including the duodenum and ileum in addition to the jejunum. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Human_Biology/Book%3A_Human_Biology_(Wakim_and_Grewal)/18%3A_Digestive_System/18.5%3A_Lower_Gastrointestinal_Tract |

The ileum is the third and final part of the small intestine, directly connected at its distal end to the large intestine. The ileum is about 3 m (9.8 ft) long. Some cells in the lining of the ileum secrete enzymes that catalyze the final stages of digestion of any undigested protein and carbohydrate molecules. However, the main function of the ileum is to absorb vitamin B12 and bile salts. It also absorbs any other remaining nutrients that were not absorbed in the jejunum. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Human_Biology/Book%3A_Human_Biology_(Wakim_and_Grewal)/18%3A_Digestive_System/18.5%3A_Lower_Gastrointestinal_Tract |

During weeks 27 to 38 after fertilization, the bones of the fetus complete their development. The fetus also grows rapidly during these final weeks, and its body fat increases substantially. Its formerly wrinkled skin starts to plump out as layers of subcutaneous fat are deposited. Additional changes that occur in the fetus during weeks 27 to 38 include the following: The fetus’s head hair grows thicker and coarser while the lanugo is shed. The waxy vernix covering the fetus becomes thicker at first, but most of it will disappear by birth. In preparation for breathing after birth, the fetus will repeatedly mimic breathing by moving the diaphragm. By about week 32, the lungs are likely to be fully developed so the fetus can breathe on its own, should it be born this early. The fetus can not only hear and feel touch, but its eyes can now detect light. In fact, the pupils can constrict and dilate in response to light. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Human_Biology/Book%3A_Human_Biology_(Wakim_and_Grewal)/23%3A_Human_Growth_and_Development/23.4%3A_Fetal_Stage |

Hornworts
The hornworts ( Anthocerotophyta) belong to the broad bryophyte group. They have colonized a variety of habitats on land, although they are never far from a source of moisture. The short, blue-green gametophyte is the dominant phase of the lifecycle of a hornwort. The narrow, pipe-like sporophyte is the defining characteristic of the group. The sporophytes emerge from the parent gametophyte and continue to grow throughout the life of the plant (Figure 25.3. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_and_General_Biology/Book%3A_General_Biology_(OpenStax)/5%3A_Biological_Diversity/25%3A_Seedless_Plants/25.3%3A_Bryophytes |

General Plant Life Cycle
Summary
Content: The gametophyte has male or female reproductive organs that undergo mitosis to form haploid gametes (sperm or eggs). Fertilization of gametes produces a diploid zygote. The zygote grows and develops into a mature sporophyte, and the cycle repeats. This diagram represents the life cycle that generally characterizes plants. One of the two generations of a plant’s life cycle is typically dominant to the other generation. Whether it’s the sporophyte or gametophyte generation, individuals in the dominant generation live longer and grow larger. They are the green, photosynthetic structures that you would recognize as a fern, tree, or other plant (see Figure below ). Individuals in the nondominant generation, in contrast, may be very small and rarely seen. They may live in or on the dominant plant. The dominant generation in nonvascular plants is the gametophyte; | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Introductory_and_General_Biology/Book%3A_Introductory_Biology_(CK-12)/09%3A_Plants/9.18%3A_Plant_Life_Cycles |

Some are monoecious, having both male and female reproductive organs in a single individual, while others are dioecious, each having either male or female reproductive organs. Nematoda (Roundworms)
Phylum Nematoda (the roundworms) is a diverse group containing more than 15,000 species, of which several are important human parasites (Figure 5.2. 1 ). These unsegmented worms have a full digestive system even when parasitic. Some are common intestinal parasites, and their eggs can sometimes be identified in feces or around the anus of infected individuals. Ascaris lumbricoides is the largest nematode intestinal parasite found in humans; females may reach lengths greater than 1 meter. A. lumbricoides is also very widespread, even in developed nations, although it is now a relatively uncommon problem in the United States. It may cause symptoms ranging from relatively mild (such as a cough and mild abdominal pain) to severe (such as intestinal blockage and impaired growth). | https://bio.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Microbiology/Book%3A_Microbiology_(OpenStax)/05%3A_The_Eukaryotes_of_Microbiology/5.02%3A_Parasitic_Helminths |

Content: Propagation of an action potential along the sarcolemma enters the T-tubules. For the action potential to reach the membrane of the SR, there are periodic invaginations in the sarcolemma, called T-tubules (“T” stands for “transverse”). The arrangement of a T-tubule with the membranes of SR on either side is called a triad (Figure 6.4. 3 ). The triad surrounds the cylindrical structure called a myofibril, which contains actin and myosin. The T-tubules carry the action potential into the interior of the cell, which triggers the opening of calcium channels in the membrane of the adjacent SR, causing Ca + + to diffuse out of the SR and into the sarcoplasm. It is the arrival of Ca + + in the sarcoplasm that initiates contraction of the muscle fiber by its contractile units, or sarcomeres.

Figure 6.4. 3: Narrow T-tubules permit the conduction of electrical impulses. The SR functions to regulate intracellular levels of calcium. Two terminal cisternae (where enlarged SR connects to the T-tubule) and one T-tubule comprise a triad—a “threesome” of membranes, with those of SR on two sides and the T-tubule sandwiched between them. Excitation-contraction coupling
Although the term excitation-contraction coupling confuses or scares some students, it comes down to this: for a skeletal muscle fiber to contract, its membrane must first be “excited”—in other words, it must be stimulated to fire an action potential. The muscle fiber action potential, which sweeps along the sarcolemma as a wave, is “coupled” to the actual contraction through the release of calcium ions ( Ca + +) from the SR. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Courses/Community_College_of_Vermont/Human_Biology_(Gabor_Gyurkovics)/06%3A_Muscular_System/6.04%3A_Muscle_Contraction |

The word intestine is derived from a Latin root meaning “internal,” and indeed, the two organs together nearly fill the interior of the abdominal cavity. In addition, called the small and large bowel, or colloquially the “guts,” they constitute the greatest mass and length of the alimentary canal and, with the exception of ingestion, perform all digestive system functions. The Small Intestine
Chyme released from the stomach enters the small intestine, which is the primary digestive organ in the body. Not only is this where most digestion occurs, it is also where practically all absorption occurs. The longest part of the alimentary canal, the small intestine is about 3.05 meters (10 feet) long in a living person (but about twice as long in a cadaver due to the loss of muscle tone). Since this makes it about five times longer than the large intestine, you might wonder why it is called “small.” In fact, its name derives from its relatively smaller diameter of only about 2.54 cm (1 in), compared with 7.62 cm (3 in) for the large intestine. As we’ll see shortly, in addition to its length, the folds and projections of the lining of the small intestine work to give it an enormous surface area, which is approximately 200 m 2, more than 100 times the surface area of your skin. This large surface area is necessary for complex processes of digestion and absorption that occur within it. Structure
The coiled tube of the small intestine is subdivided into three regions. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Courses/Lumen_Learning/Book%3A_Anatomy_and_Physiology_II_(Lumen)/09%3A_Module_7-_The_Digestive_System/9.06%3A_The_Small_and_Large_Intestines |

This large surface area is necessary for complex processes of digestion and absorption that occur within it. Structure
The coiled tube of the small intestine is subdivided into three regions. From proximal (at the stomach) to distal, these are the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The shortest region is the 25.4-cm (10-in) duodenum, which begins at the pyloric sphincter. Just past the pyloric sphincter, it bends posteriorly behind the peritoneum, becoming retroperitoneal, and then makes a C-shaped curve around the head of the pancreas before ascending anteriorly again to return to the peritoneal cavity and join the jejunum. The duodenum can therefore be subdivided into four segments: the superior, descending, horizontal, and ascending duodenum. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Courses/Lumen_Learning/Book%3A_Anatomy_and_Physiology_II_(Lumen)/09%3A_Module_7-_The_Digestive_System/9.06%3A_The_Small_and_Large_Intestines |

Content: Of particular interest is the hepatopancreatic ampulla (ampulla of Vater). Located in the duodenal wall, the ampulla marks the transition from the anterior portion of the alimentary canal to the mid-region, and is where the bile duct (through which bile passes from the liver) and the main pancreatic duct (through which pancreatic juice passes from the pancreas) join. This ampulla opens into the duodenum at a tiny volcano-shaped structure called the major duodenal papilla. The hepatopancreatic sphincter (sphincter of Oddi) regulates the flow of both bile and pancreatic juice from the ampulla into the duodenum. Figure 1. The three regions of the small intestine are the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The jejunum is about 0.9 meters (3 feet) long (in life) and runs from the duodenum to the ileum. Jejunum means “empty” in Latin and supposedly was so named by the ancient Greeks who noticed it was always empty at death. No clear demarcation exists between the jejunum and the final segment of the small intestine, the ileum. The ileum is the longest part of the small intestine, measuring about 1.8 meters (6 feet) in length. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Courses/Lumen_Learning/Book%3A_Anatomy_and_Physiology_II_(Lumen)/09%3A_Module_7-_The_Digestive_System/9.06%3A_The_Small_and_Large_Intestines |

The ileum is the longest part of the small intestine, measuring about 1.8 meters (6 feet) in length. It is thicker, more vascular, and has more developed mucosal folds than the jejunum. The ileum joins the cecum, the first portion of the large intestine, at the ileocecal sphincter (or valve). The jejunum and ileum are tethered to the posterior abdominal wall by the mesentery. The large intestine frames these three parts of the small intestine. Parasympathetic nerve fibers from the vagus nerve and sympathetic nerve fibers from the thoracic splanchnic nerve provide extrinsic innervation to the small intestine. | https://bio.libretexts.org/Courses/Lumen_Learning/Book%3A_Anatomy_and_Physiology_II_(Lumen)/09%3A_Module_7-_The_Digestive_System/9.06%3A_The_Small_and_Large_Intestines |

Headings:
Content: Entomopathogenic nematodes are extraordinarily lethal to many important insect pests, yet are safe for plants and animals. This high degree of safety means that unlike chemicals, or even Bacillus thuringiensis, nematode applications do not require masks or other safety equipment; and re-entry time, residues, groundwater contamination, chemical trespass, and pollinators are not issues. Most biologicals require days or weeks to kill, yet nematodes, working with their symbiotic bacteria, can kill insects within 24-48 hours. Dozens of different insect pests are susceptible to infection, yet no adverse effects have been shown against beneficial insects or other nontargets in field studies (Georgis et al., 1991; Akhurst and Smith, 2002). Nematodes are amenable to mass production and do not require specialized application equipment as they are compatible with standard agrochemical equipment, including various sprayers (e.g., backpack, pressurized, mist, electrostatic, fan, and aerial) and irrigation systems. Hundreds of researchers representing more than forty countries are working to develop nematodes as biological insecticides. Nematodes have been marketed on every continent except Antarctica for control of insect pests in high-value horticulture, agriculture, and home and garden niche markets. | https://biocontrol.entomology.cornell.edu/pathogens/nematodes.php |

# 43 Effect of Carbon Dioxide on the Rate of Photosynthesis
When the concentration of CO2 is low the rate of photosynthesis is also low. ( the plant has to spend time waiting for more CO2 to arrive). Increasing the concentration of CO2 increases the rate of photosynthesis. Experiment
Place a pond weed Elodea upside in a test tube containing water at 25°C. Place the tube in a beaker of fresh water. Place excess sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) in the water to give a constant saturated solution of CO2. Place the lamp (the only light source) at a fixed distance from the plant. Maintain the room temperature at 20°C. Count the number of oxygen bubbles given off by the plant in a one -minute period. This is the rate of photosynthesis at that particular concentration of CO2. | https://biology-igcse.weebly.com/effect-of-carbon-dioxide-on-the-rate-of-photosynthesis.html |

The gas should be checked to prove that it is indeed oxygen - relights a glowing splint. Repeat at different lower CO2 concentrations by using different dilutions of a saturated solution. Graph the results placing CO2 concentration on the x-axis. Explanation
The rate of photosynthesis increases linearly with increasing CO2 concentration (from point A to B ). The rate falls gradually, and at a certain CO2 concentration it stays constant (from point B to C). | https://biology-igcse.weebly.com/effect-of-carbon-dioxide-on-the-rate-of-photosynthesis.html |
