/nwga. </s> BloOutside of Brandon's ICU room at Barnes Hospital in 2005 and 2006, were boxes and boxes from American Red Cross that held bag after bag of blood that was put into Brandon as quickly as he was bleeding it out. Finally after many, many bags of blood and fresh frozen plasma, Brandon quit bleeding and survived those life-threatening bleeds and enjoyed several more years of good health until further complications arose”, says Brandon’s mother, Regina Riddle.
Brandon has suffered numerous complications during the last few years which required another new liver. On December 29, 2011, Brandon received his second liver transplant which required 72 units of red cells, six units of plasma, and four platelets. Unfortunately, Brandon had to receive a third liver transplant last week, Thursday, January 5 due to complications. He only required 4 units of blood during that surgery. Since the start of the second transplant on December 29, 2011, and over a 7 day period, Brandon has required over 150 red cells, 50 fresh frozen plasma, 15 platelets, and 80 cryo. “He still has a long way to go and may require more blood products, but at this point, everything is looking good and Brandon should be able to recover and have many, many more healthy years ahead of him. Over the course of Brandon's 27 years, he has probably received over 500 units of blood. If not for all the donors who supplied the blood that Brandon has received, he would not be with us today. Blood donations are so very important and Brandon's family is so appreciative of each and every donor who took the time to donate each and every bag of blood Brandon has received”, says Riddle. In effort to support the blood supply, Brandon's friends, family, and community members in Springfield, MO, have hosted several blood drives so blood will be available for.

One of the bike shops I visited on Thursday mentioned I could try calling the Trek home office directly to see if they would do a nationwide search for the specific Domane+ I wanted. To prove a point to Cyndie about how dismal things were looking in my bike hunt, I told her about that longshot advice.
She encouraged me to try it. As we were preparing to turn in for the night Thursday, I decided I would confirm there were none available anywhere by calling Trek in the morning, and then I would focus on finding one of the alternative choices in stock somewhere in the Twin Cities.
A little before 11:00 a.m., I pressed the numbers on my phone to reach Trek. It only took two or three easy steps of the decision tree to bring up a human voice eager to assist me. He quickly searched the 2022 bikes and found zero in my size. I could hear him keying away as he described changing the search to 2021 models.
“I found only one in the nation that size. Looks like it is at Freewheel Bikes in Minneapolis.” he happily reported.
I was just at the Freewheel in Woodbury the day before and they couldn’t find any Domane+’s. With giddy thanks, I logged off that call and entered the number he provided to the Minneapolis shop.
“Let me look it up.” the voice on the other end said. As he clicked keys he cautioned that the shop computer systems don’t necessarily update instantaneously so discrepancies are possible.
“Ope, there it is. Yep, we have that bike. It arrived at the beginning of this month and was assembled on the 10th.”
That is likely the reason the other shop didn’t find it yet. It had just been built and had yet to be accounted for in the system.
Go ahead. Tell me the odds of the timing of my search and the very recent local availability of this single bike in the entire country.
“And there is no claim on this bike yet?” I don’t know if he could sense the state of shock I was entering.
“Nope. There is no name attached to this bike.”
“Put mine on it please and I will be in to pick it up today,” I said, not even thinking about the falling snow and blustery wind creating hazardous winter driving conditions all day long.
Choosing to go get the bike immediately was the easiest decision I’ve made in a long time.

Hair braiding is a profession largely by and for Black women. It represents an integral part of many African cultures and is a part of cultural heritage for African women. For many African immigrant women, hair braiding is also the most marketable skill and accessible employment to support their families here and back home. However, working as a hair braider is not as simple as one might think. African immigrant hair braiders are a marginalized workforce facing numerous challenges, including regulatory and structural barriers to practicing their craft. Most have not been able to obtain the Natural Hair Styling license, which is required by the State to do their work. Our report sheds light on these issues and lays out recommendations to make the license more accessible.The report is the culmination of a Participatory Action Research project that centered on the leadership of African hair braiders. ACT conducted nearly 350 surveys, three focus groups, and interviews with braiders. Our research found that surveyed hair braiders want licenses and feel the pressure and fear of being unlicensed: they are concerned about the fact that they are unlicensed, which leaves them vulnerable to theft of services and penalties from authorities for license violations. Our data also show that the State licensing process imposes significant barriers on braiders who want to obtain a Natural Hair Styling license. Most braiders lacklicense. Barriers like language access, literacy, and the time and cost of training programs put the license out of reach for most braiders. The report details policy recommendations to improve African hair braiders' access to licensure, including improving access to information about the license, revising the course and examination requirements, streamlining the process by which braiders can document prior experience, and more.

When making bolts, Hex Bolt Manufacturers should carefully consider the weight, price, purchase, etc., and insert the screws in terms of the mechanical properties of the screws (especially the strength of the material), and require the conditions of the screws and the corrosion resistance of the material. As a special requirement of the working temperature for the heat resistance of materials, steel has the advantages of beautiful appearance, clean, environmental protection, low cost, good safety performance, and good impact resistance. |

Mike, thanks for the new webcam link, worked fine for me (I hadn’t installed the old one, hadn’t worried about it).
By the way, alsa-1.0.15 worked well for me, but before I installed it, I had one more problem than the author of this page. It didn’t just ‘not mute the internal speakers’ but it also failed to make any noise through the headphone jack, as if nothing was happening at all. Anyway, 1.0.15 fixed it fine.

Matt, could you describe your script in more detail? How can I use it? I am also using 2.6.23.14-107.fc8 and I want to adjust the brightness of my SZ6 laptop in speed mode. There seems to be no directory ‘/etc/acpi/var’ on my system.
first you can use the “acpi_listen” command to make sure you are getting the acpi events correctly when you do Fn+F5 and Fn+F6. They should come out as :
sony/hotkey SPIC 00000001 00000010
There are two file that go into /etc/acpi/events
the other brightness-up.conf contains :
Copy the bash script from above to :
That should be it I think. You can add in
xbrightness to the script if you want to control |
en | N/A | N/A | Fe$8.12 billion to fund judicial branch operations for fiscal year 2022. The request includes funding to keep pace with inflationary and other budget adjustments, and to pay for program increases, including projected workload changes, courthouse security, cybersecurity, and new magistrate judges.
The request in discretionary appropriations represents an overall $403 million increase, or 5.2 percent, above the FY 2021 enacted level.
Lungstrum was joined by Judgetestifying on Feb. 24er testimony, Mauskopf outlined branch-wide priorities that the Administrative Office is supporting, including employee diversity and inclusion, workplace conduct protections, and growing judicial security needs for federal judges and U.S. court facilities. Mauskopf asked for $100.3 million for the AO, a 4.9 percent increase.
Lungstrum noted that the coronavirus (COVID-19) has disrupted federal court operations, including widespread telework for employees, postponed jury trials, increased use of video and teleconferencing, and new approaches for probation and pretrial supervision.
Lungstrum said the courts will nee2021, to pay for information technology expenses and for enhanced cleaning of court space to reduce infection risk for litigants and court personnel.
Increased staffing for federal defenders. The Judiciary is requesting $12 million to hire 118 full-time employees, to address staffing shortages identified by work measurement tools. An additional $9 million is for staff to address unexpected surges in workload, and $1.5 million would fund a diversity fellowship program in federal defender offices.
Expected resurgence in caseloads. The pandemic resulted in double-digit declines in 2020 in criminal filings (-11 percent) and bankruptcy filings (-12 percent). “The Judiciary projects that criminal and bankruptcy workload will rebound in 2021, with each increasing nearly 4 percent,” Lungstrum said. Court-appointed defense representations in the Judiciary’s defender services program are also expected to increase.
Court Security. The request includes $682 million to fund nearly 4,600 court security officers protecting courthouses; payments to the Federal Protective Service for the patrol and protection of courthouse perimeters; and security systems and equipment, including funding for ongoing security improvements.
Cost containment. The Judiciary is streamlining the administration of tens of millions of bankruptcy notices – nearly 67 million in 2020. Electronic noticing to creditors and debtors resulted in $9 million in cost avoidance in FY 2020 alone.
Magistrate judgeships. The Judiciary is seeking funding for six additional full-time for courts in Camden, New Jersey; Corpus Christi, Texas; Indianapolis, Indiana; Pierre, South Dakota; Waco, Texas; St. George, Utah; and the District of Columbia (part-time).
Cybersecurity. The Judiciary has requested funding to renew firewall licenses and to enhance cybersecurity in federal defender IT systems.
Mandatory pay for judges. In addition to the discretionary budget, the Judiciary requested a total of $757 million in mandatory funds for judges’ salaries and retirement funds.
Mauskopf said the AO has made great progress since 2018 in protecting Judiciary employees from inappropriate workplace conduct. “We have made substantial improvements that have real impacts on our employees and continue to do so with a number of new achievements in the last year,” she said.
Mauskopf reported that every circuit and nearly 80 percent of the districts have now adopted a model Employment Dispute Resolution plan that clearly defines misconduct. The Judiciary also offers flexible avenues for reporting complaints, and tCode of Conduct for employees of federal public defender organizations that mirror misconduct-related changes m2019.
She also said the AO has strengthened efforts to expand workplace diversity, hiring a diversity and inclusion officer. The Facilities and Security Office also has established five summer internships that focus recruitment on historically black colleges.
Mauskopf said greater protections are needed for judges, citing the murder last July of the son of U.S. District Judge Esther Salas at their home in New Jersey.
The Judiciary supports legislation that would prohibit the resale or online posting reveal where federal judges live, and the creation of a resource to monitor the online availability of personal information and associated threats. Mauskopf noted that Congress approved funding late last year for the U.S. Marshals Service to modernize home-security systems for federal judges.
Draft legislation to prevent the spread of online information that endangers judges has bipartisan support, she added. “We are encouraged by this progress and hope to build on it as we work to achieve the enactment of our remaining priorities,” Mauskopf said.
In addition to the murder of Judge Salas’s son, the Judiciary also has identified a need for additional security resources following the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. These measures include targeted infrastructure fixes, such as “riot glass” and magnetic door locks, that can better protect federal courthouses against large groups seeking unlawful entry.
Mauskopf noted that these requirements were developed too recently to be included in the Judiciary’s FY 2022 budget request, but she offered to work with Congress to address additional security needs.
“These disquieting and, in some cases, tragic events … have sharpened the Judicial Conference’s focus on the need to make significant and urgent improvements to the full range of judicial security activities,” Mauskopf said.
Lungstrum and Mauskopf both stressed the importance of the General Services Administration receiving funding to address Judiciary space needs. FY 2022 courthouse construction priorities include a new courthouse in Puerto Rico, which would address a Judicial Conference declared space emergency due to seismic vulnerabilities. The Judiciary also is requesting the remaining funding for courthouse project. GSA receives funding in the same appropriations subcommittee as the Judiciary. |

en | N/A | N/A | In this tutorial, I am going to share with you 4 quick tricks to put a circle around a number in Excel. You can easily apply these methods in any set of data to arrange the numerical values inside circles or any other shapes. To achieve this task, we will also see some useful features that might come in handy in many other Excel-related tasks.
4 Quick Tricks to Put a Circle Around a Number in Excel
1. Using Excel Illustrations Feature
2. Inserting Excel Symbol to Put Circle Around a Number
3. Using Quick Access Toolbar
4. Applying Excel VBA to Put a Circle Around a Number
Circle Around Number.xlsm
We have taken a concise dataset to explain the steps clearly. The dataset has approximately 7 rows and 3 columns. Initially, we are keeping all the cells in General format. For all the datasets, we have 3 unique columns which are Product ID, Product Name, and Sales (units). Although we may vary the number of columns later if that is needed.
In this first method, we will use the Excel illustrations feature to put a circle around a number. Follow the steps below to do this.
First, go to the Insert tab and click on Shapes under Illustrations.
Next, select the Oval shape from the list of available shapes.
As a result, this will insert the oval shape where you click on the sheet.
Then, select the shape and navigate to the Shape Format tab at the top of the screen.
Next, click on the Shape Fill drop-down and select No Fill.
Consequently, this will create a circle around the number in the dataset.
We can also use the symbol options in Excel to put a circle around a number very easily. Let us see how to do that in a few steps.
To begin with, go to the Insert tab and click on Text Box under Text.
As a result, this will insert a text box on the location you click on the sheet.
Now, again go to the Insert tab and click on Symbol under Symbols.
Next, in the Symbol window, select the Circle symbol and click Insert.
Immediately, you should see the circle shape inside the text box.
Finally, move the circle to the position you desire and this will give you the final result.
Another very useful option we have in Excel is the Quick Access Toolbar which gives us a quick and easy way to get to any commands. Below we shall see how to apply this to put a circle around a number very easily.
To start with this method, click on the Quick Access Toolbar icon at the top of the screen.
Next, click on More Commands.
Now, in the Excel Options window, select All Commands under Choose commands from.
Then, select the Oval option and click on Add.
As a result, this will add the Oval shape command in the Quick Access Toolbar as in the image below.
Now, click on the Oval shape and again click on the sheet where you want to insert the shape.
Finally, format the shape as we saw before and you should get the following result.
If you are familiar with VBA in Excel, then you can put a circle around a number with just a few clicks. Below are the steps to achieve this.
First of all, go to the Developer tab and click on Visual Basic.
Next, in the new window, click on Insert and select Module.
Then, in the Module window enter the following code:
Sub CircleToNumber
Dim p, s As Single, Sh_area, Sh_oldrange As Range
Set Sh_oldrange = Selection.Cells
For Each Sh_area In Selection.Areas
With Sh_area
p = .Height * 0.1
s = .Width * 0.1
ActiveSheet.Ovals.Add Top:=.Top - p, Left:=.Left - s, _
Height:=.Height + 2 * p, Width:=.Width + 1.5 * s
With ActiveSheet.Ovals
Next Sh_area
Sh_oldrange.Select
In the above code, we are initially declaring Single and Range type variables. The Selection method allows us to work with the selected cells. The ActiveSheet.Ovals.Add command adds the oval shape in the set location from the top and left. Finally, Interior.ColorIndex portion sets the fill color of the shape to null.
After that, go to the Developer tab and click on Macros.
Now, in the new Macro window, select the macro CircleToNumber and click on Run.
Consequently, this will add an oval to the cell you are currently in and you can convert this into a circle by resizing the shape.
I hope that you were able to apply the methods that I showed in this tutorial on how to put a circle around a number in Excel. As you can see, there are quite a few ways to achieve this. So wisely choose the method that suits your situation best. If you get stuck in any of the steps, I recommend going through them a few times to clear up any confusion. Lastly, to learn more Excel techniques, follow our ExcelDemy website. If you have any queries, please let me know in the comments. |

en | N/A | N/A | Q: Html, how to import / use toastr.js I've got a little problem here. I think the solution is pretty simple and I'm just overseeing something.
So, my problem is, that I'm trying to use toastr.js on my webpage.
<link href="{% static "flat/css/toastr.min.css" %}" rel="stylesheet"/>
(Which obviously points to the toastr.min.css file) and
<script src="{% static "flat/js/toastr.js" %}" ></script>
(Which points to the toastr.js file).
Now just before </body> I've got
toastr.options={"closeButton": false,"debug": false,"newestOnTop": true,"progressBar": true,"positionClass": "toast-bottom-full-width","preventDuplicates": false,"onclick": null,"showDuration": "300","hideDuration": "1000","timeOut": "5000","extendedTimeOut":"1000","showEasing": "swing","hideEasing": "linear","showMethod": "fadeIn","hideMethod": "fadeOut"};
toastr[success]("Message will come here", "Title");}
So, I want to use toastr to display a notification when the page is loaded.
A: You are using an undefined variable success that should be a string when used in [] notation or just a property name in dot notation
toastr['success']("Message will come here", "Title");
toastr.success("Message will come here", "Title"); |

en | N/A | N/A | On the weekend, lay out your week and figure out what meals you need. Do you have meals already planned out of the house, do you have leftovers? Is there meat that needs to be cooked within the next few days? Try to think of it all and then create a meal calendar each week. Some people do this monthly, but personally, I feel like that is a pretty big undertaking, so 1 or 2 weeks at a time, is a little more manageable (but you find out what works best for you specifically). After creating your meal calendar for the week (or month), write down what all you need from the store, to create your grocery list. Then, ask everyone else in the house if there is anything they need from the store. This way, hopefully you will be able to cover everything in one trip and do not have to go back to the store 2-3+ times in one week. This will save time and some money, too. All of these above tips will save you so much time and effort throughout the week – especially if you meal prep ahead of time!
Now, to follow along with the same topic as above, some people don’t even have time to go grab groceries…and that’s okay; I understand! Meal prepping, creating a meal plan and grocery list, and grocery shopping basically takes a full day to do. It’s a lot of work and it takes a ton grocery meal delivery services. This is a great way to save time, but one thing to keep in mind is that you also might be spending a little more money because services like Instacart no only ask for a service fee + tip, but they also mark up prices on a lot of products, too. If spending extra is worth having that extra time so that you do not have to shop for yourself, definitely do it! There are plenty of options now-a-days, such as Amazon (Whole Foods), Amazon Fresh, Instacart, Shipt, and more.
It is so easy to be sucked in by that TV show that is playing in the background, or your text messages, but screen time truly sucks away a lot of our time and doesn’t give you much back (long-term, at least). Reduce screen time, if possible. Instead of watching TV while you fold laundry, turn on an audio book instead, or play your favorite music. This way, you are still getting some entertainment, but you aren’t distracted by a screen that will cause you to pause to watch while you are getting your list done.
DIY projects can be fun and can save you time, but forgo them, when you feel like you don’t already have the time you need tnstead, hire companies that can help you get those projects and tasks done. Like moving – if you don’t have the time for it (or think that your time could be spent elsewhere), hire a moving company instead. Or, even if you need a large piece of furniture delivered, moved within your house, or taken away, that doesn’t have to be done yourself. Companies like Star City Services are there to help. When you support companies like these long-distance movers (who can also help with all things moving and even Roanoke furniture delivery),huge and so important. Star City Services is a local company with 4 years of experience. They say, “Star City ServiceRoanoke, VAs.” So, support local, and support small, family-run companies like this one. It will save you time + effort, and it will help the local economy, too. |

en | N/A | N/A | Fatal accident at Alden Place, longtime Lebanon County landscaper casualty
by LebTown Staff October 14, 2019Updated April 19, 2020 2 min read
An aerial view of the Alden Place site via Google Maps. Snitz Creek and some smaller offshoots run through the active living retirement community that straddles Cornwall Borough and West Cornwall Township.
A co-owner of a Lebanon County-based landscaping firm was killed Saturday in an accident at Alden Place in Cornwall Borough.
Ralph Schreiber, 66, was the co-owner of Schreiber Lawn & Landscape Maintenance, based in West Cornwall Township.
According to Cornwall Borough Police, Schreiber was operating a zero-turn lawn mower around noon on Saturday to cut grass at Alden Place when the machinery slid into a creek and subsequently overturned, immobilizing Schreiber. He was pronounced dead at the scene by Lebanon County Coroner Dr. Jeffrey Yocum.
Police state that the exact time of the accident is unknown; the call for assistance was received at 12:22pm Saturday after an employee of Schreiber’s firm began searching for his boss and identified the lawn mower in the creek.
Cornwall Borough Police Chief Bruce Harris noted that Cornwall, Quentin, and Mount Gretna Fire Companies assisted at the scene, along with First Aid & Safety Patrol EMS. The lawn mower was subsequently removed from the creek with a wrecker.
The precise location of the accident was not identified in the release, but County land records show several marked creek lines in the area, including Snitz Creek, which runs through the site.
Alden Place is the former site of the Robert Percy Alden Estate (a relation to the Coleman family) and later the Amalgamated Clothing Workers Union Center.
According to his company biography, Schreiber was a 1971 graduate of Cedar Crest High School, after which he matriculated to Delaware Valley College, where he majored in ornamental horticulture. Lebanon Countians may have known Schreiber through his years managing Royer’s Flowers in Lebanon.
Scrhreiber co-owned his eponymous landscaping firm with son, Andrew, also a Cedar Crest graduate and experienced groundskeeper. “Words cannot express how much he was loved by all,” said Andrew in a post to the firm’s Facebook page. “I miss him (in) the worst possible way already.”
“He will always be my hero and I will strive to be as kind hearted of a person as he was.”

However the most commonly recognized use is to recover heat from the exhaust gasses produced by the internal-combustion engine. Normally these gasses are expelled as waste heat but the turbocharger uses this heat energy to compress air which is routed into the engine's intake. This process increases engine power output by increasing the amount of available oxygen for use in the combustion process.
Like superchargers, turbochargers increase engine power with little increase in weight, but typically require less fuel than superchargers because they recycle wasted heat energy which normally is wasted. |

“The FDA is scheduled to have an all-day regulatory meeting tomorrow, where it is expected that they will ,” Justice said. “FDA officials have said they plan to make a decision on approving this emergency authorization within four days of the meeting, though I hope to the good Lord above that they can approve it even faster than that.

en | N/A | N/A | Nick Faldo was in Denmark last week visiting Faldo Design’s first golf course project in Scandinavia – Ledreborg Palace, near Copenhagen. The company is designing an 18-hole ‘championship standard’ golf course, one which the six-time Major winner believes has the potential to become recognised as one of the finest new courses in Europe.
When it has been completed, golfers visiting the course will be in very select company for the 18th century Palace at Ledreborg is a well-known historic landmark and remains the residence of an aristocratic Danish family. The stunning building and sumptuous grounds will certainly lend an elegant ambience to the development and help make for a unique golfing experience. The site is also very interesting from a topographical perspective, gently (and sometimes dramatically) undulating throughout. The natural contours of the landscape will encourage the subtle sculpting of a challenging and very engaging golf course.
Faldo, on site to finalise the routing of all eighteen holes and to add his own keen sense of strategy to the layout, said, “I’m really excited about working at Ledreborg Palace and we had a very productive time during my visit. It’s such a beautiful setting and this is precisely the kind of design project that inspires me. The terrain is near perfect from a design point of view in that it affords an almost instinctual route across the eighteen holes. We are aware that this is a highly sensitive and historically important site and our design will blend very comfortably into the existing landscape – in fact, I would say that it’s more a case of ‘finding’, rather than creating this golf course.”
Ledreborg Palace joins Faldo Design’s burgeoning collection of high quality international projects. The company has gained a reputation as one of the most sought after in the industry and Faldo’s own wealth of experience as a player and legendary strategist are clearly identifiable within his design work. Ledreborg Palace promises to be a very strong addition to the Faldo Design portfolio. |

If you could help me that would be appreciated.
@NelsonGamer75 do you need help with text behaviors on adding typing features into a game, or was this a joke to say “Hahahhahha, YOU THINK” to players who click on the game.
I would have just assumed this was just a mere joke to fool people, but I can see if you actually need help with something then you could be a bit more specific on how exactly you are trying to achieve.
And if this is suppose to be a joke, then I would highly recommend you don’t post discussions luring everyone who is actually willing to lend a helping hand. Taking advantage of people like that can hurt your reputation and when you do need help no one will be willing.
Also @Si-Guy, we try to be civilized and we are supposed to promote good behavior on the forums for new or more younger users, and full on calling him “stupid”, isn’t a very appropriate move. I would suggest not using any name calling no matter what the issue is. The only reason I say this would be because there have been many conflicts in the past over really immature stuff and it does start by either a misunderstanding or just name calling.
To answer yes, I needed help with text behaviors.
“Hahahhahha, YOU THINK” was a text that was meant to be a text, that was for the first game which lead to that text leading to the boss fight. I meant to add more later because I wanted the text to fit the screen and not go off it. I needed help on this its just I did not finish the whole text because I was more concerned on the text behaviors. I wanted the text to fit the screen but it goes off it.
Below should be an image of the text going off screen.
Thank you for the help, it works now.
Was the reason it did not work because the block was broken?
Okay, after Si-guy spewed out, i figured it was a joke cause the text was mildly concerning. But now that you said something I do apologize for taking it the wrong way.
Anyway glad you figured it out.
Probably. It’s just a glitch that hasn’t been fixed yet.
Super sorry about just getting angry like that sorry I took the wrong way and overreacted.
If you keep this kind of behavior up, you will be suspended or worse, banned, so try and be nice from now on, okay?
Or just change the max pixel width so it does it itself, and you don’t need to manually click enter every-time you want more words on the screen because they don’t fit.
It’s okay, after seeing what the text was I was irritated at first as well, but I also took the idea that maybe they just threw some random text into it just to show up on the game editor. |

Lots of children had a go at using Virginia Creeper to weave wreaths to hang on their doors at home; this required some patience and concentration but they did really well. Bird feeders were also super popular and we had some fab creations made for gardens.
The children were encouraged to keep moving to stay warm and lots of them played imaginative games, bounced on the slack line and went on a spider hunt!

With smart technology permeating homes, people have considered using it to their advantage in the workplace as well. By implementing smart digital solutions, you will be able to create the most productive environment for your colleagues and yourself.
Consider, lighting. It is critical to have plenty of it when it gets dark.
It will be detected by automated technology, which will adjust the lighting to make your eyes feel more comfortable. Additionally, office automation will allow you to manage lighting equipment with a single tap on your iPad.
A drained battery not only causes discomfort and annoyance. It may also land you serious trouble. Many people have been in a situation where their boss called them when the battery was almost dead.
A charging mouse pad solves the problem by providing a continuous power supply to your device. It serves two functions and does not require wiring to connect to the charger.
Air y. Having an air purifier in your home or office will allow your lungs to breathe freely and receive an adequate oxygen supply throughout the day. What makes such a device so useful is its ability to self-control and turn on when contaminants are detected in the environment in which you work.
A smart table lamp is more than just a lighting device. It is all about adding moods and extra colours to your routine.
The most recent generation of lamps includes a variety of modes and sensors. They enable it to connect to external music and create a music-light show for you. You can customize its lighting, add animations, and create or download colour schemes using an app.
Being properly hydrated is also important for productivity and brain function. The issue is that many employees frequently forget to drink their glass of clean water on time. A smart water bottle solves the problem by tracking your water consumption and prompting you to recharge your water balance.
Having new tech solutions in your office is more than just having a smart toy. It is about comfort that you invest in to improve your performance. |

This has clearly been illustrated by the Tseil Waututh First Nation’s commendable decision to forgo their sockeye fishery this year in the name of conservation,”However, many First Nations are understandably frustrated with DFO’s inconsistent fisheries management and allocation methods which continue to put the fishery at risk.”
“We are calling for Minister Hearn to direct his officials to immediately halt all commercial and sport fisheries and to respect the rule of law by giving priority to the First Nations fishery after conservation needs are met”, sa“First Nations will not stand by and continue to allow the Government of Canada’s mismanagement of this valuable resource.

How do we know if the bleeding is coming from the spine?
I pose here a theoretical question. Does it matter where the bleed is coming from?
So in many of these patients, as the iron disappears, can we then detect a clinical benefit?Is there a healing period that’s required?We don’t know. Does all of the iron have to be gone before the healing can begin?We don’t know. We do know that in the first two years as the iron is being chelated there’s no real clinical benefit. We don’t see patients getting much better, at least initially, because the iron is still there, and it’s still being toxic, and so the healing process is really limited early on. What we really need to see is, when that iron is finally gone, then can we see a clinical benefit?
As I mentioned before, our ongoing research is really to look at these patients who are on an iron chelator for a long time. Because again, what we really want to know is, once that iron is gone does the clinical benefit fall out?We know we’re good now with removing the iron. The question now is, does that provide a clinical benefit?

DCI George J. Tenet's Statement on the Arrest of Former CIA Employee Douglas F. Groat
On behalf of the Central Intelligence Agency, I would like to thankand the FBI for their efforts leading to the arrest of former CIA employee Douglas F. Groat.
Mr. Groat was employed by the Agency from 1980 to 1996. He worked as a technical officer in our Directorate for Science and Technology. He. Yesterday he was arrested on charges of espionage and attempted extortion based on information alleging that he disclosed information concerning the targeting and compromise of the cryptographic systems of two foreign governments to those governments and that he threatened to reveal intelligence activities and methods unless the CIA agreed to pay him more than half a million dollars for his silence.
The charges against Mr. Groat are extremely serious. .
His arrest demonstrates that the U.S. government will not rest in our efforts against those who would commit espionage against the United States nor will we be intimidated by threats of blackmail. |

en | N/A | N/A | Does the Progressive Resistance Need Our Own (Not the Tea Party’s) Tactical Playbook?
They tell us we are a democracy. They tell us that we elected representatives who then advocate, the voters—the people.
But our elected officials are following a radical agenda that would dismantle the government, depriving millions upon millions of Americans of needed services and safeguards, including healthcare. Furthermore, the administration of the 45th US president is enacting a white supremacist agenda while consolidating power into a fascist stronghold.
And the people are voicing their discontent like they have not done in generations.
All elected officials have a duty to listen to their constituents. This is called representative democracy, what they tell us we have. Instead, they are trying to silence constituents’ voices and words by portraying us as bullies, as radicals, as crazy—essentially, gaslighting us. They are attempting to discredit us because we are alarmed by what’s happening. They are portraying us as unreasonable and beyond the pale of public opinion.
Disparagingtaking an active part in our own democracy speaks only to the truth of our criticisms. But it is also a form of abuse—refusing to listen to the people they have sworn to represent and instead disparaging them is an abuse of power.
Ane’s’s good for the goose, then it’s good for the gander, right?
The Tea Party of ten years ago is different from today’s progressive resistance movement. Ten years ago was a very different cultural and political climate from today’s sensationalistic, mud-spewing, struggling-to-woke-the-masses movement. Our relationship to the elected officials we’re trying to influence is different from the Tea Party’s relationship to the elected officials of their heyday.
Should we be creating our own tactical playbook not only to win these political battles (or at least score a draw) but also to change the narrative about the power of the people, the potential of building a truly compassionate society, reinforced by a government that enacts principles of empathy and communal growth?
Yes, I know: everything we hold dear about our nation is being flushed down the toilet, and I’m asking you to read about yoga pants.
Maybe because I’m so overwhelmed with the Bannon-puppet Trump and the rest of the GOP that I can’t sustain a cohesive argument without ending up in all caps. Or maybe this is connected. Bear with me, and we’ll find out.
But back to yoga pants.
Or they could just put “whores” on the list. That would be more succinct. But they don’t.
Patriarchists define women solely by their sexuality in relation to men—virgins, wives, and whores. And they have a use for each one of these categories.
AND THERE IS THE SIN.
To reinstate themselves at the top of the chain of power, and to put the rest of us back in our places—in subservience to them and them only.
I don’t know about you, but I’m going to go stock up on yoga pants, and I’m going to wear them Every. Fucking. Day.
How can we come together to protect each other and help each other?
Are we prepared to protect them too? Even if they want to hurt us and the people we care about?
ALL of our lives.
We must reject the narrative that tells us that pointing out the Judas Iscariots among us fractures and weakens us. Until we know who our false leaders are, we cannot know how we can fight with our warrior leaders. |

en | N/A | N/A | I took a quick look at your portfolio and I have a few random thoughts. Take them for whatever hey are worth . . .
I like the nice colors and subject matter of most of the clips.
I see some clips with fluctuating exposure. That's a big problem and will prevent professional editors from buying those clips. Always use full manual exposure.
A lot of clips seem too dark and/or too contrasty. Work on your grading.
Too many shots are handheld for no reason. Use a tripod next time.
You have too many keywords and a lot of them are not relevant or are so generic they will not help your clips be seen.
Your descriptions aren't descriptions. They are just keyword phrases and that's not the same thing as a good description. Work on your metadata skills.
It takes time to get results and 200 clips is not very many. Hang in there and keep working on it.
With my portfolio of 900 clips, I average about 1 video sale every 2 months or so. Assuming my sales rate is typical, with your 191 videos you should expect one sale every 10 months or so.
Those numbers are very low. Until recently I had 4900 clips in my portfolio and was averaging 50-60 downloads ($2200) per month. Now that I have upped my number to 7000 clips this winter my numbers are inching up towards 70 downloads this month ($2500 already).
With 900 clips (unless they are new) you should be seeing 10-15 downloads per month if the clips are good and you've got good metadata to back them up. You're doing something wrong if you're only getting 1 download every two months
I think that depends completely on the subject material.
Of course does. But then why waste valuable time on subject that won't sell?
Didn't turn out to be a waste of time for me.
No it wasn't, so obviously that's not what I was referring to.
No, actually good images and excellent metadata are the keys. All the waiting in the world won't compensate for doing a poor job on those two things.
You shoot what you have available. Some subjects might be less sought after than others, but if a clip sells just once for $23 it's worth the effort, IMO.
I refer you to the name of this thread. No downloads. That is $0.
For what it's worth - I've looked through your images port, and majority of it is repetitions of same subjects; you probably have about 15-25 unique subjects (unique to your portfolio) from 455 photos right now. Most of subjects are very common (beads, cacti, plants in pots), there are thousands of those in the database already. It will be very hard for you to compete with such images.
On average, people here tend to sell about 4% of their port per month (some much more, some much less). With 25 unique subjects that's about 1 per month for you.
But having said that, this image (along with others) is lacking keywords and description. If buyers cannot find your photo, they wont be able to buy it. |

en | N/A | N/A | As a movement theorist, I have frequently written about ways of increasing our effectiveness as a movement (e.g., Burstow, 2014a and 2015a). While prioritizing strategic resistance, mostly, I have focused on practices so horrific that they scream out for redress—ETC, for example (Burstow, 2015b). The topic of this article, by contrast, is a far less heart-wrenching problem—the lack of mainstream attention to our publications—whether these be books by Breggin, Whitaker, Scull, or others. If this seems an issue that can safely be relegated to the “back burner” while we attend to the real horrors out there, I would point out that to an appreciable degree, our success as a movement depends on our ability to sway the general public—and if the mainstream press and media never afford our books their due—not even the blatantly cutting edge ones (and if anything, these are treated worse) and the general public, as a consequence, remains largely unaware of their existence, the likelihood of succeeding in our primary mission(s) is substantially reduced. The point is, secondary though this clearly is on a human level, it is a problem that we can ill afford to ignore.
That said, there are three related disjunctures underpinning this article. The first is the number of critical psychiatry or antipsychiatry authors who have confided in me of late that they have largely given up trying to get mainstream coverage and so are putting their energy elsewhere. While to be clear, this is a reasonable choice under the circumstances, the mainstream is a battleground that we can ill afford to cede. I would add that while I do not share the dim prognosis of many of my colleagues, nonetheless, as I ponder how to garner mainstream coverage for what should have been an easy book to get it for (Psychiatry and the Business of Madness, Burstow, 2015c), I too am aware that those of us who push the boundaries are up against a seemingly impenetrable obstacle. And herein lies the larger disjuncture. The point is, we make little sense to the mainstream press or media. Whatever role the financial cooptation of the media does or does not play here, our discourse is simply outside of their story line. Consequently, they provide negligible coverage of our books—ergo, the general public seldom hear of them, nor are primed to pick them up. And to be clear, the difference in treatment at issue here is not minor but palpable.
What is telling in this regard, when I emailed news editor Rob Wipond asking him his sense of the extent of the differential treatment—a phenomenon that he is uniquely positioned to assess—this was his response:
In my role as news editor for Mad in America, I go through reams of news alerts and notifications every day, and I can tell you that Jeffrey Lieberman's book celebrating the alleged successes of modern mainstream psychiatry has been getting an immense amount of coverage and reviews in the media. Conversely, since I started this job a year ago, I have not seen any book that takes even a slightly critical approach towards modern mainstream psychiatry get a tiny fraction of that amount of coverage. (personal correspondence)
Not an easy truth for sure, but all the more reason that we need to face it head-on.
The third disjuncture (a smaller one) presented itself when I checked how Disability Incarcerated (Ben-Moshe, Chapman, and Carey, 2014) was faring on Amazon.ca, approximately one year after its release. This is a stellar anthology by American and Canadian authors which brings together prison abolition, critical disability, and antiracism. Having reviewed the book for the Canadian Journal of Disability Studies (see Burstow, 2014b), four weeks ago, as I was perusing books on Amazon.ca, I decided to see how that site’s readers were assessing the book (as reasonable an indicator as any of the interest being shown by the general public). To my disappointment, I found one review only. Not that most of our other books were faring any better. And to be clear, not that on some level that I was not painfully aware of what I would find.
That noted, the immediate problem that we are facing is this: Despite the transparently superior quality of our authors’ publications—and compare any of our leading books to, say, Lieberman’s (2015) book, and you will quickly see what I mean—and despite our authors’ best efforts to break into the mainstream, our books receive comparatively few reviews in the mainstream press; they are not picked up by the mainstream media; correspondingly, they are not shown the same interest by the casual reader.
Such is the dilemma and the challenge.
For revealing accounts of why this is happening, see Whitaker (2010), Wipond (2013), and Burstow (2015c). That noted, “why” is not the focus of this article. The question being posed here, rather, is: Practically speaking, what can we as a movement do to turn this situation around? That is, how might we help increase the number of reviews which our authors receive in the mainstream press? How do we pry open the door to the mainstream media? And what can we do about the fact that a comparatively low number of people post comments about our books in the comments sections of sites like Amazon?
A good beginning, let me suggest, is taking the issue seriously. Also—and this may be a stretch for some—acknowledging that the movement as a whole has a huge vested interest in the success of our books, and as such, we have a role to play here. The point is: Yes, we can say that this is not our problem, that it is the problem rather of the authors and their publishers (without question, true to point), but if we do that, what is, after all, our cause suffers. A very different choice—and I am inviting fellow activists to consider it—is going in the opposite direction, that is, taking up what might be called “book activism,” whether in groups or at an individual level, whether systematically (developing concrete goals and a plan) or more sporadically. What I am suggesting? That individually and collectively, we concretely take this problem on as a movement.
For those interested, there are many different ways to go about this—and we will be but scratching the surface in this article. However, let me begin with a global suggestion that has an immediate payoff even were we not explicitly thinking about getting these books into others’ hands. As educators and activists, among the most valuable tools at our disposal are precisely these books and articles—they provide evidence; they give details; they make vivid; they explain. So why not conscientiously put them to work? Toward this end, activists who are taking up this challenge and who have not already done so might begin by truly immersing themselves in the literature, turning themselves into authorities in their own right (common mistakes to avoid here are: 1) restricting oneself to one’s favourite author and assuming that “he” has “said it all”; and 2), failing to appreciate the significant differences between the books—the very specific perspective, the unique contribution, who is being spoken to, what it teaches or could be used to teach).
With this expertise under one’s belt, one can readily go into “high gear”—and such is my recommendation. That is, as the occasion arises, use the familiarity gleaned to make effective selections to assist you in whatever task be at hand. If speaking with a person who is claiming that ETC does not cause brain damage, for example, you might cite specific passages in Breggin (2008). Alternatively, if calling the APA into question, Whitaker and Cosgrave (2015) could come in handy. And from the perspective of movement building, if trying to interest anti-colonial activists in our cause, you might draw on Mills (2013). Such an approach, note, has the obvious advantage of immediately serving your purpose while at the same time promoting the book(s) in question.
Those who want to approach the challenge more modestly, by contrast, can draw on methods already known to them. Some examples are: recommending specific books to friends. Lending out books. Correspondingly, those of us who are academics integrating such books into courses and reference lists.
Now, to be clear, none of foregoing in itself results in mainstream coverage. This notwithstanding, if enough of us do it, it increases the exposure of these books, additionally, in so doing, creates an atmosphere more conducive to mainstream coverage.
For those wanting to go further, on other hand, those, moreover, intent on proceeding methodically, one way of beginning would be developing criteria which could be used to judge which books to devote most of one’s energy to. Examples of possible criteria are: a) the extent to which the book undermines psychiatry (the “attrition model” criterion); b) the coverage afforded sexism, racism, ableism, classism, etc. (the anti-oppression criterion); c) the degree to which the book hooks into issues currently in the news (the relevance criterion). A possible next step would be choosing a few books on which to focus. The pivotal steps of course are executing actions which create a stir about them.
· interviewing the author and mounting the interview.
· creating pointer pages for book-related events.
· writing your own reviews, then tweeting about these.
Now the reader may well be thinking: Fair enough, but social media coverage hardly equates with mainstream coverage. True. Nonetheless, the point is, if done skillfully, what you post can attract the interest of the general public—which is, after all, the ultimate goal. For example, if one your tweets goes viral or if enough people put your messages on their timeline, a stir is created which takes the message far beyond the your original network. Correspondingly, if there is a big enough social media stir around any of these books, at that point the mainstream press and mainstream media themselves “sit up and take notice”. What is critical here, is not just posting occasionally (which many of us already do) but keeping the pressure up, retaining the focus.
That said, book activism can of course also include directly approaching the mainstream media and press. In this regard, if you know any reporters who write reviews in the areas of health or social change, you might approach them—and if you do this, where possible align your proposal in some way with a storyline that they have already used (a clear hook). Additionally or alternatively, you might send individualized proposals involving a book to select programs. Watching previous shows makes sense as preparatory work for the familiarity so gleaned will help you choose judiciously and shape the proposal in ways that increase the likelihood of it gaining traction. Keeping an eye on current items in the news and linking with one of them is likewise an asset. And note, coordinating with others who subsequently submit overlapping proposals to the same program greatly enhances the chance of a proposal of this ilk being taken up.
In this regard, numbers are all-important (as is independent status). If both author and the publisher try to pitch a book to the producers of a mainstream program, short of having a solid relationship with them, vital though it be that they make such pitches, in most instances, they stand little chance of being successful. By contrast, if say, over a three month stretch ten different people make similar but separate pitches, the producer is primed to surmise a growing interest in the area and respond accordingly.
Examples of Canadian programs that might be approached in this regard include: The Current, The Agenda, the Fifth Estate, The Passionate Eye, W-5. I leave it to readers from other parts of the world to generate comparable lists.
This sheds a bit of light on the first two questions. Which bringsn us to the issue of the paucity of comments afforded our books on online sites like Amazon and Indigo.
An obvious answer—and I will stick with one—is that we rectify such problems by posting in the comments sections ourselves. The good news is: Here our power as readers is considerable, and here we can make a major impact with very little effort. The point is that whether the target book (the book we are trying to promote) be Disability Incarcerated (Ben-Moshe, Chapman, and Carey, 2014), Psychiatry and the Business of Madness (Burstow, 2015c) Psychiatry Under the Influence (Whitaker and Cosgrove, 2015), Mad Matters (LeFrançois, Menzies, and Reaume, 2013), Decolonizing Global Mental Health (Mills, 2013), or one of Breggin’s works, the more of us who post comments about the book, the more significant the book looks; what goes along with this, by sharing what we ourselves think of the work, we are concretely suggesting to people who are specifically looking to be interested, why they should consider this book. Correspondingly, comments, as it were, themselves beget more comments. The point is, after reading several comments about a book which they themselves have read, people are tempted to “add their two cents”. And while there is hardly a one-to-one relationship, the more comments, the more readers for the book—all of which translates into more people potentially being “persuaded”. By the same token, the more comments, the more that the mainstream media will take note, which further translates into broader coverage, and by extension, a broader readership.
What, in a nutshell, is the process?
1. Go to one of the online sites where the book is sold.
2. Find and click on the book about which you would like to comment.
3. Scroll down to the “Customer Reviews” section.
4. Click on the box which reads “Create your own review” or a variant thereof.
5. Rate the book (usually a 1-5 rating), and enter your comments.
6. Then hit post or publish.
Do you need to have purchased the book from the outlet in question to post a comment? In the case of some sites, yes. With others, no.
That said, we all have multiple demands on our time and so while I have outlined some fairly extensive actions, I am aware that most people’s contributions will be on the modest side. All good. Should you choose to get involved in this dimension of our struggle, just do what you are comfortable doing. Have fun in the process—you may find yourself discovering skills that you never knew that you had. However large or small your individual contributions, each contribution adds up. Correspondingly, be assured that if we as a community have a mind to do this—and such is my hope—together we can turn ourselves into a force to be reckoned with.
This article has put forward the case that pivotal to the success of our movement is getting our authors read by the public at large; it has noted the paucity of coverage by the mainstream press and media (a highly related issue); and it has recommended that we include book activism within our activist repertoire. The bulk of article focuses in on ways to go about such activism. Ways explored include: assiduously referencing our books when making points; use of social media; directly pitching a story to the mainstream media; and posting comments on online sites where the books are sold.
In ending, let me invite readers with experience in this or related areas to share their own suggestions about how best to do book activism. What have you yourself done? What have you seen work? Not work? What do you know about the media in your area that it would be helpful for the rest of us to know?
An observation in closing: While for sure there are exceptions, generally, all coverage, including psychiatry “panning” our books works to our advantage. So do not worry if your postings culminate in psychiatry going on the offensive, that is, devoting their energy to attacking the target book—don’t even become alarmed it they start making spurious claims about it (to some extent, inevitable). The fact that they bother is itself an indicator that they are losing ground. Correspondingly, their doing so, spells controversy. And the value of controversy especially when handled skillfully may be gleaned from the PsychOut experience:
To wit, PsychOut was an activist University of Toronto conference on organizing against psychiatry. It received highly negative and indeed demeaning press—presenters being portrayed as “flakes”, the entire operation portrayed as a waste of the public purse—hence the controversy. A war of words ensued—which the knowledgeable activists won handily. The long and short? The bad press, together with activists’ able response to it, culminated in the most extensive and the best press that we activists/antipsychiatry scholars had received in decades (see Burstow and Diamond, 2011).

First Review of Psychiatry and the Business of Madness is Out---and It's a Ringing Endorsement
Writes psychologist and theorist Philip Hickey, "This book is a major milestone in the antipsychiatry effort, and stands as a monumental challenge to psychiatry's continued existence as a branch of medicine."
What every author holds their breath for--the first review of Psychiatry and the Business of Madness is out--and it's a ringing endorsment.
Another memorable statements from Hickey? Normally when I write a book review, I include some quotes from the work to enable readers to judge for themselves the quality and content of the material. With Psychiatry and the Business of Madness, however, this presented a problem, in that virtually every one of the 264 pages of text contains eminently quotable material.

“Doing” Antipsychiatry on all Cylinders: Possibilities, Enigmas, Challenges
Year after year, we confront, we explain. Maybe we get minor concessions. Then presto, something happens, and even those handouts are gone. (S. R., activist and interviewee)
On several occasions I have written about the complexities of antipsychiatry politics, exploring more specifically, how to “do our politics” in a way that moves society squarely in the direction of the abolitionist goal (e.g., Burstow, 2014). In this article, I am once again theorizing the “how” of activism—for understanding this territory is critical to maximizing effectiveness. However, this time round, I am approaching it from an angle at once more general and more practical. That is, I am investigating the tools or approaches at our disposal as activists. What relates to this, I will be discussing the genus of politic—that is, the manner of politics being engaged.
Pivotal questions grappled with in this article include: What fundamental approaches might be taken to end/rein in psychiatry? What are the strengths and shortcomings of each? What dangers do they present? To what larger genus of politic do they belong? How are we to understand these in themselves? In relation to psychiatry? What are some of the enigmas, or challenges facing us? And how might they be met?
Now obviously, very different approaches might be adopted depending on the intended target of our change efforts—psychiatrists, survivors whom we hope to influence, our selves, the general public, the state. For the purpose of this article, I will largely be limiting the focal target to those with power in this area on one hand and the general public on the other.
That said, let me suggest that there are two overarching or umbrella approaches available to us as activists—persuasion on one hand and the application of political pressure on the other (for an articulation of these principles in relation a neighbouring movement, see Rosenthal, 1996).
To begin with persuasion, persuasion is predicated on the supposition that if we make our points well enough, say, by assembling cogent evidence, by making it assessable, by personalizing this with sensitizing stories and other emotional persuaders, people will become convinced that action of the type suggested is called for—for example, that ETC should be abolished. Correspondingly, it is assumed that there is an extremely close relationship between people being persuaded and change happening. Now whatever the limitation of this perspective and this approach, without question, persuasion is a key element in most change processes. Moreover, it is part of our existential nature to try to persuade and to move. Understandably, correspondingly, efforts at persuasion abound in our movement, whether we call what we are doing providing information, exposing, sensitizing, telling our story, or educating. Examples are: almost all the articles in Mad in America, the books that we pen, fact sheets that we produce, dialogues that we invite.
That said, I would agree that this is a necessary, even pivotal dimension. Why, for example, would the public support banning ETC short of becoming convinced that it is inherently damaging? Our tools here—and it is important to master them—include: sound scientific evidence, latest findings, cogent analysis, people’s stories, with ones with which public can identify being particular important, for they heighten empathy, lead to “aha” movements, and motivate. And with all of this, painstaking accuracy is critical. Note, the establishment can get away with lying, twisting, and exaggerating—we cannot.
That granted, a number of questions arise. First, are there risks involved in heavily relying on persuasion? Let me suggest that indeed, there are, with the risks different for different types of persuasion. To begin with the simplest of these, when trying to persuade, especially when using personal stories as persuaders, we can readily fall into what has been called “the politics of compassion” (in the politics of compassion, we are in essence leveraging the compassion that people feel or can be induced to feel to effect the changes sought; for an articulation of this concept, see Rosenthal, 1996). To be clear, I am in no way trying to minimize the importance of compassion. Nonetheless, the politics of compassion is at best a tenuous base from which to proceed. Why? For one, the presence of compassion does not in and of itself mean that the shift that materializes will be benign, despite our best efforts. In this regard, strange though this may seem, most people who support forced drugging are convinced that there are thereby being compassionate to the objects of the force. Additionally, even good changes made on such a basis tend to be less than reliable. Why? Because people whose political decisions stem overwhelmingly from compassion seldom have a solid grasp of the territory. Correspondingly, the object of their compassion can shift—and as a result, such changes can be very short-lived.
One way that this happens is by the establishment likewise appealing to compassion. In this regard, in the early 1980s ETC survivors frequently got on tv and moved the public with chilling stories of how the treatment ruined their lives—seemingly, real progress. Within short order, though, psychiatrists were bringing their own patients onto shows with them, with the patients testifying how ETC had saved their lives. The audience was still compassionate but compassion now culminated in support for the status quo.
Indeed, even when substantial (and benign) changes have materialized, in the absence of a more solid base, they can quickly be reversed. Consider, in this regard, the great strides made with respect to psychiatric survivor rights in the 1980s. In Ontario Canada, for instance, education on the impossible plight of psychiatric survivors led to legal changes predicated on the notion that the default mode should be survivors making their own decisions. Shortly thereafter, however, a man called Brian was killed by someone identified as “disordered” and the incident was seized upon by institutional psychiatry, its supporters, and the media. Whereupon, the public’s compassion shifted from survivors per se to what was seen as their potential victims. The result was the passing of Brian’s Law—a piece of legislation which dramatically lowered the bar on what suffices to incarcerate involuntarily (for details, see Burstow, 2015a).
For changes to be benign, solid, and enduring, in other words, additional education is needed that goes beyond the education typically associated with the politics of compassion. Examples are: education debunking the myth of the dangerous mental patient, education around the inefficacy of and the harm done by the “treatments,” and education on psychiatry’s lack of foundation. More fundamentally, if substantial and enduring change is to be achieved, the politics of entitlement has to take precedence over the politics of compassion. To hone in on consent, for example, the message that needs to be delivered is: Irrespective of how others may feel, it is everyone’s right to be free.
This being the case, public education on people’s rights is important. And of particular importance are initiatives like Tina Minkowitz’s, which culminated in the U.N. declaring involuntary treatment torture (see Minkowitz, 2014). And here we move from liberal to radical education, and, indeed, consciousness-raising.
At this point the question arises: If education is both more thorough and more radical, will it then suffice? At risk of frustrating the reader, let me suggest, for the most part, no. And here, we come up against the limitations of persuasion, also the inadequacy of what passes as common sense. In this regard, it is commonly believed that if provided with good evidence and ways to relate, people can be persuaded to see things differently; correspondingly, once enough people or the right people are so persuaded, social change, ipso facto, will occur. The very fact that for decades now an abundance of scholars, activists, and survivors have masterfully provided such education (e.g., Szasz, Breggin, Frank) and yet psychiatry continues to command respect and to grow is itself an indicator that such an understanding is too simplistic. While of course, on some level or other, persuasion is generally at work when change happens, what such a perspective ignores is the very fact of power and how it works.
The point is that there are structures and there is a profession here endowed with authority. And there are huge vested interests at play—the multinational pharmaceutical companies, for example, armies of “professional helpers”, indeed the entire psychiatric/psychopharmaceutical industrial complex. These yield enormous power, including the power to determine who and what is credible. Correspondingly, they can be counted on to use that power to further their own interests, including their own bottom line. On top of which the public is wary of people whom they see as mad— and so want such structures in place. Moreover, the industry has vast sums of money and other capital at their disposal, and whenever it has seen public sentiment shift against it, it has invariably responded by drawing on its extensive resources to wage a new campaign (for details, see Burstow, 2015a). All formidable reasons why persuasion does not suffice.
If the combination of logic, facticity, and fellow feeling, while essential, do not suffice—and I am suggesting that they do not—what else is needed? At this point in history at any rate, force. The point is, insofar as an oppressor wields power, and insofar as we are trying to overturn a system that is inherently oppressive and all-encompassing, we too need to wield power. To be clear, I am in no way suggesting physical force, but non-violent action such as that waged by visionaries like Gandhi (see Sharp, 1973).
Now indeed, albeit it is underutilized, to varying degrees nonviolent resistance too has always figured in our repertoire. Note, in this regard, the Highlander work, wherein survivors pointedly modeled themselves on the civil rights movement. Note the demonstrations in the UK (see Mckeown, Creswell, and Spandler, 2014). Correspondingly, witness MindFreedom’s 2002 hunger strike (for details, see http://www.mindfreedom.org/kb/act/2003/mf-hunger-strike/hunger-strike-news?searchterm=hunger+ ).
The latter, I would add, is a particularly instructive action to probe. The protestors’ ultimate demand was the provision of choice in “services”; and in the process of making this demand, they challenged the American Psychiatric Association and the National Institute of Mental Health to point to a single study showing that “mental illness” is biological—which, of course, they could not. This action was nothing short of remarkable; it included among its team no less a figure than the former head of “schizophrenia studies” at National Institute of Mental Health; it brought together survivors and radical professionals, drawing on the knowledge of each; it garnered press; it brought goals, methods, and means of measurement into alignment with each other, as is critical in strategic activism; correspondingly, it constituted a formidable education in its own right. At the same time, even this stellar piece of activism fell short of achieving its objective. Nor did it exactly create a base from which to proceed. And here is the rub.
Now to be clear, as I have stated elsewhere (Burstow, 2015b), standing up and being counted is important irrespective of effectiveness. And so is raising awareness even when nothing concrete materializes. Nonetheless, insofar as our goal is social change, effectiveness in the strictest sense of the term matters. So the question is: what kind of pressure can we bring to bear that might actually materialize in change? In short, there are two types of pressure involved in non-violent action. The first is moral force, also known as the force of truth (and the personal stories alluded to earlier are a part of this). Such is arguably achievable in our movement, for the cause is just and the harm demonstrable.
That said, while moral force is absolutely critical—and for sure it was being wielded in that hunger strike—it similarly does not suffice. In this regard, history teaches us—and we ignore this to our peril—that moral pressure needs to be combined with pressure of a more material kind. Note, in India when Gandhi mobilized against the British colonizers, or to add a second example, when the Black community in Nashville sought to desegregate the commercial centre of their city, they were successful because not only had they moral force, they used and leveraged the power of numbers to obstruct. In this regard, the oppressed inhabitants of India greatly outnumbered the British occupiers, did all the work utilized by the regime, and so by the very act of striking, they were able to bring production to a halt and in the process, undermine the British. By the same token, the Black community in Nashville was sufficiently large that once the overwhelming majority of Black residents (plus allies) had joined the ongoing boycott of stores practicing segregation (more or less all stores in central Nashville) and had engaged in it long enough, the seemingly intransigent merchants of Nashville were, in essence, brought to their knees (for a blow-by-blow of this very extensive campaign, see York, 2000).
To put this simply, the question facing any movement intent on change is leverage. Having large enough numbers that you can stop the work of industry constitutes leverage. Being able to wield sufficient economic power that simply by refusing to purchase you can materially affect companies’ bottom line constitutes leverage. Now generally, the leverage in question is of an economic nature, but there is no obvious reason why this must be so. That noted, the question facing our movement is this: Besides the morality of our cause, exactly what is our leverage? And if we haven’t sufficient leverage now—which I am suggesting is the case—what kind of leverage can we get and how do we acquire more?
The answer to this question is anything but obvious. A course which I teach (Creative Empowerment Work with the Disenfanchized) is instructive in this regard. Year after year, I have engaged students in an exercise—and it invariably ends with the same impasse: The class having been divided into three, each group is tasked with brainstorming a strategic piece of resistance that would stand a reasonable chance of being successful—group one, in regard to homelessness, group two with respect to prisons, group three with regards to psychiatry. While all three encounter difficulties, almost invariably, it is the students in the antipsychiatry group that flounder. Why? Precisely because, try though they might, they cannot locate a point of leverage.
This said, arguably, the single biggest task confronting us as a movement is finding or generating leverage. Boycotting the drugs, clearly, would not get the unity needed and would otherwise backfire. And in the end, even at its best, the only pressure of use to us that would arise from a hunger strike is moral pressure, which short of having a person with the reputation of Gandhi at the helm, is not going to advance the movement far.
I do not have a clear answer to the dilemma posed here, though I can hazard some guesses about direction. Insofar as lack of numbers presents a formidable obstacle to any strategy, let me suggest that coalition politics appears to be called for. Note, if even a modest percentage of the people poorly served by society banded together, we would greatly outnumber the establishment, and as such, arguably, the necessary critical mass could be forged. Though to accomplish this, obviously, ongoing work reaching out and co-visioning would be critical.
Not an easy or a quick answer, I agree, but one with the added advantage of being holistic and truly leading in the direction of a better society.
In summation, there are very serviceable tools at our disposal as antipsychiatry activists—and these include various kinds of persuasion and force. Correspondingly, it is critical that we know them, select and use them skillfully. At the same time, major challenges confront us. Getting past our conviction that persuasion suffices is one of them—and then there are the material problems, together with issues like power and leverage. Hopefully, this article has shed a little more clarity on all of such aspects. And hopefully, the reflections and dialogue started here can continue.
Indeed, as you go about your work, I invite the reader to continue pondering the distinctions, queries, and challenges raised. In particular, I invite you to ask yourself: What power do we wield? Could we wield? Who historically have our allies been? (e.g., homelessness activists, prison abolitionists, Quakers) And who might new allies be? As an addendum, correspondingly, I leave you with the following consideration:
No campaign is successful without images. And if chosen judiciously, symbols can be of considerable help in generating leverage.
One possibility in this regard is using the violence of ETC as a symbol for psychiatry overall (see Burstow, 2015b). What might be at least as potent—and I think that we would do well to seriously entertain this possibility—is to focus in on the psychiatrization of children. By this I do not mean what happened to current adult survivors when young (important though this dimension is), but the rampant targeting of children going on now (see Whitaker, 2010). Children being placed on Ritalin. Children being labeled ADHD. Children being controlled/subdued chemically in classrooms around the world. Herein lies a powerful symbol. Question: If we leverage it properly, might not the public at large be moved to rally in protection of its children? And were that possible, in the long run, might not such a focus deliver the numbers needed for strategic action?
What is significant here, irrespective of espoused belief, understandably (given that the young in particular are entrusted to our care), people are readily outraged by what happens to children, and more pointedly, what happens or could happen to their child. And significantly, the vast majority of the human population are parents, grandparents, and the like. Now for sure, a frightening number of parents, moreover, the vast majority of ones publicly weighing on these issues are in the opposite camp, have become, in essence, an extension of psychiatry. By the same token, a particularly formidable weapon in psychiatry’s current arsenal are pro-medical model family organizations like NAMI, tutored, funded, and otherwise resourced by the psychopharmaceuticals. This notwithstanding, those of us who organize in this area have witnessed first hand the enormous power that can be unleashed when parents suddenly realize that they have been, as it were, “sold a bill of goods”. As such, arguably, if we put our minds to reaching and leveraging the power of this very considerable constituency (of which we, after all, are a part), for the first time in history, we might be able to create the leverage needed—indeed, potentially, leverage beyond our wildest dreams—a good beginning.
Insofar as this is the case, I would add, the greed of the psychiatric/psychopharmaceutical industry in relentlessly pursuing this erstwhile “untapped market”—the real reason that our children have been targeted—could prove to be its own undoing.

The Book is Out, The Wait Over: Psychiatry and the Business of Madness Has Been Published!
The date given for the publication of this book (the anticipated date) was April 1, 2015. The countdown was almost unbearable. March 29, March 30, March 31; finally April 1 came --and still no book in my hands--nothing had arrived from the publisher! So I did what every person does who realizes or at least suspects that this is the best work that ever s/he is likely to pen (for in all honesty, it is). I took a deep breath, then queried the publisher. No answer that day. Why?, I wondered. Had something unexpected happened? Finally the next day, the answer to the puzzle came--an unfortunate glitch had happened, though my author's copies of the book were now on their way to me.
Then came the first sign. An email arrived from one of the people who would be speaking at the London book launch--Cheryl Prax--informing us that her copy of the book had arrived. Halleluiah!
Shortly after the meeting commenced, a member called Oriel entered the room. What is it that she was holding? Could it be? Yes, it was. There in her hands was a copy of Psychiatry and the Business of Madness: An Ethical and Epistemological Accounting.
The chapter breakdown is:
3. Modernity (1890-2014): A Journey through Time, Part Two
4. Probing the Boss Text: The DSM—What? Whither? How? Which?
8. Electroshock—Not a Healing Option
9. Dusting Ourselves Off and Starting Anew
"This is a powerfully unsettling book. Burstow expresses outrage about, and level-headed analysis of, the oppressive and alienating practices of psychiatry and holds out hope for emancipation that builds on everyday interactions in a transformed society. It's an outstanding contribution to critical thinking about mental health, and to ethics, law, and social change—a no-holds barred, take-no-prisoners radical history and deconstruction of all modern mental health practices and an ambitious, inspiring 'eutopian' proposal for their reinvention."

en | N/A | N/A | There was a CSI episode that aired on Thursday December 19 on Spike (I believe) which had many awesome tracks, some of which I recognized. There was a track by Lamb, a track that could have been by Cinematic Orchestra, and then two others I didn't recognize. There were two seperate subplots: a man beaten with a hammer on a construction site, and a women shot in the suburbs, while her husband and ex-husband fought in front of her. Brian Austin Green had a brief role.
What kind of song was it?9? We have that one queued up in TIVO to watch... so when we do, I'll get back to you on the song.
Yes, sorry. Most recent CSI. It was a techno/dance track. I still can't recall who it is. I I was just listening to that CD in the car and when it hit track 2 I smacked myself on the forehead. Man, that was driving me crazy!
CSI Season 4 "Bad to the Bone"
For others, the episode is called "Bad To The Bone."
maybe they will in a week or so.
If anyone saw this episode, please help! I'm looking for the song that was played while that guy was doing the retina eye identification on his computer.
The lyrics go something like: "Hey, all you people,all you people, set my baby free"
If anyone knows, please posT!
OK nevermind, found it, good song.
"Set My Baby Free" by Ian Brown. Link goes to audio sample.
It's the very beginning of the show, when all the cops are running some kind of relay at night, and the cop cars are following them all.
Great CD! You should get it!
Dah... actually... . but i don't think this is it.
Are you talking about the one right at the beginning of the show? |

en | N/A | N/A | There are lots of enjoyable activities you can do with your toddler. Remember you are their favourite plaything. Taking the time to follow your toddler's lead will provide you with many new experiences and insights into your toddler's world. Activities that give your toddler a sense of their body, encourage physical skills development and provide a rich environment of language and music are all ideal. Choose toys and activities that motivate your toddler to play, exploSuch toys help develop their movement skills e.g. sand and water play, a push along wagon and pull–along toys, ride on toys.
Toddlers are very attracted to the rapidly changing colours and bright lights of many digital devices. However, it is strongly advised that parents avoid or limit exposing their toddlers to television, computers, tablets, mobile devices and playstations. There is no evidence that television or digital devices helps with your baby's learning. Interacting with people is the best way to enhance a baby's learning.
Toddlers love books. They provide opportunities to tell stories using descriptive language.
Playing music and making music with your toddler, is a very positive and enjoyable activity and key to supporting toddler's development.
Start by singing nursery rhymes and doing the actions. Move to the rhythm of the music while holding your toddler.
Your toddler may enjoy making music by banging on a saucepan with a wooden spoon, banging on a toy drum or shaking a rattle.
C: no sharp jagged edges, no broken loose parts.
Your local council or library will often have a toy library where you can borrow age-appropriate toys, and CD's. This provides a wonderful opportunity for your toddler to be exposed to a range of interesting toys and music. |
