Barbara Feder Ostrov
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Breast milk isn't just for babies at the Mothers' Milk Bank, which quietly offers it to adults with cancer and other serious illnesses to ease their symptoms.
The San Jose milk bank is one of six in the United States. It distributes donated breast milk primarily to premature and low-birth-weight babies. However, it also will provide breast milk to adults with a doctor's prescription.
Adult use of breast milk is rare, said Pauline Sakamoto of the San Jose milk bank, which has served 28 adult patients in the past four years. Adults with cancer, digestive disorders and immune disorders may drink several ounces of milk daily or weekly to ease the side effects of chemotherapy, bolster their immune systems or improve their digestion, she said.
No national figures exist for adult use of breast milk, but an informal survey of milk banks suggests that they serve dozens of adult patients.
Breast milk's benefits for babies have been well-documented, with research showing that it helps fight infection, improves immune-system function, increases intelligence and combats later obesity.
But can it help sick grown-ups? No one knows because so little research has been done.
Swedish researchers in 1995 isolated a protein in mothers' milk that seemed to kill cancer cells in a test tube. And they are working on developing a drug that takes advantage of that protein. The same research team in 2004 found another compound that destroys many kinds of skin warts, raising expectations that the compound could help treat cervical cancer and other diseases caused by the human papillomavirus.
But most doctors are skeptical about the value of breast milk for adults, and mainstream medicine seems to consider it to be on the fringe.
Although Dr. Michelle Melisko, an oncologist at the University of California, San Francisco, acknowledged that mothers' milk probably won't hurt her patients, she worries about quality control — some viral particles can be passed through breast milk — and said she would advise them against using it.
"I'd say the same thing I say to all my patients who want to do alternative things: I don't know how it's tested," Melisko said. "Patients are potentially exposing themselves to as many risks by taking milk from an unknown source … [as] by taking herbs that come in a bag."
Yet Margit Hamosh, professor emeritus at Georgetown University and an expert in the biochemistry of human milk, said breast milk contains compounds "that might definitely help in people who have compromised immune systems in the same way they might help the newborn."
Howard Cohen, a Palo Alto, Calif., software consultant with a doctorate in theoretical physics, said he can live with the lack of medical evidence. He's his own study. Cohen thinks the twice-weekly smoothies he makes with breast milk and fruit have helped put his prostate cancer into remission and allowed him to avoid more invasive treatment, such as surgery.
"You give this stuff to newborn babies," Cohen said. "It can't be toxic."
After he was diagnosed in 1999, his wife found an article about the Swedish research on breast milk and cancer cells. A friend who was lactating donated milk, and Cohen soon found that his levels of prostate-specific antigen, a warning sign of cancerous cells, dropped to normal. His doctor, a UC-San Francisco urologist, was skeptical but open to Cohen's self-treatment as long as his blood work looked fine.
Cohen undergoes blood tests and other screenings regularly, and there have been no signs of cancer for 2½ years, he said. It's possible, of course, that without the breast milk, Cohen's prostate cancer might have grown so slowly that his health would not be compromised; that happens in many cases.
Still, Cohen believes. Indeed, when he temporarily stopped breast milk, his PSA levels rose. "It works," he said.
Patty, a health educator who asked that her last name not be used, said breast milk seems to be helping her 15-year-old son, who has Crohn's disease, a serious bowel disorder that can stunt growth and destroy the liver.
"This is like liquid gold," she said. "We have this incredible untapped resource that we've only looked at for what it can give babies. I'd love for more studies to be done on this. There's got to be something helpful going on."


It is perennial shrub with a central stem from which branches extend radially in a star pattern (stellate) and covered with a dense matte of wooly hairs (tomentose). The flowers are small and green, while the ripe fruit is organge red and has milk –coagulating properties. The plant's long, brown, tuberous roots are used in medicine.
Traditionally used in many religious ceremonies.


There is one thing that seems to never go out of style in Turkish men fashion: facial hair. But here, the moustache is not just a fashion accessory! The symbolism of a particular moustache style is powerful to an extent that an unknowing foreigner would never guess. With a moustache, men can express their political preferences. An interesting phenomenon worth taking a look at!
While facial hair in Western countries has become a major trend in the past years (think of the phenomenon 'hipster beard'), in Turkey a good moustache has been popular for decades! In bigger cities you are likely to see more shaved faces, but in the country side some hair below the nose is still a must. In Turkey, men are said to wear moustaches to appear stronger and express their manliness. It seems to be a natural phenomenon, as the animal kingdom has similar practices: animals that want to appear stronger, put up their feathers or fur. A moustache stands for power and honor, but more importantly, it has a political significance! To a reasonable degree, the shape of a men's moustache can show you whether you are dealing with a nationalist or a leftist. When did the shape of your moustache start to indicate your political preferences? And which styles mean what exactly?
The political significance of the moustache in Turkey dates back to the nineteenth century. The Tanzimat, a period of Ottoman time intended to modernize Turkey, can be identified as the start of the tradition. Supporters and opponents of these reforms wore different styles of facial haircuts to show which side they belonged to. Supporters would grow their beard and moustache, while opponents would shave their faces. With this, a tradition was born.
The MHP moustache, called "ülkücü" in Turkish, is typically worn by nationalists. The end of the moustache extend downwards, like the sides of a horseshoe. According to some, it stands for milliyetçi (nationalist), as the moustache's shape resembles the letter M. Others claim it has the shape of a crescent moon and therefore this style specifically expresses nationalism. After all, these man are wearing a part of the Turkish flag on their faces. In the 70's moustache shapes were even used to define targets for killings. Between 1976 and 1980 reigned a period of chaos and political violence in Turkey. Ülkücü wearers typically belonged to the nationalist organization 'The Grey Wolves', a fascist group with close links to the MHP. Members of this organization used to engage in street killings, murdering left-wing intellectuals and liberal activists. Their victims were recognizable by the absence of the Ülkücü moustache.
Left-wingers usually prefer thick, walrus-like moustaches that solely cover the upper lip. This style is inspired by late Soviet leader Stalin, a left communist. Among Kurds, this style is particularly popular.
A conservative religious moustache is clipped, does not cover the upper lip and does not droop down the sides. In Turkish the style is called 'badem bıyık' (almond moustache). Current president Erdoğan has such a moustache, as well as former president Abdullah Gül. On the other hand, a clean shaved face used to stand for no particular political affiliation. That is also why in many public functions it used to be required to shave your face completely. With a clean face, it is impossible to show your political preferences and you will have a neutral appearance. These days, men are allowed to grow moustaches, sideburns and beards.
As mentioned before, in the Middle East, the moustache stands for power and honor. No wonder that men from the Arab world, where moustaches are seen to convey wisdom and maturity, flock to Istanbul for moustache implants! There are over 250 beard implant surgeons in Istanbul and their number is still increasing. Companies are responding to the demand in clever ways. It is even possible to buy a 'tourist package': while dad is getting the moustache of his dreams, the rest of the family enjoys the sun in Turkey! Moustache business is truly booming business! Traditionally, a luxurious moustache was a symbol of high social status, but the moustache still didn't lose its popularity in most of the Arab world.
In Turkey however, the moustache is getting less and less popular. During the Ottoman empire and in the first decades or the Turkish Republic, hair practices were an important mean to define your allegiances to the state. Today it is mainly Turkish middle-aged men who wear a moustache. Among young people, the amount of moustache wearers is significantly decreasing. Young Turks find the moustache old-fashioned, perhaps because it reminds them of the Ottoman period. For them, Ottoman equals old and outdated and that is not what they want to stand for. They want to show they are Western and modern, so wearing a moustache does not go with that. So for now, only hipster beards accepted!

Even magic is very useful in fights when you feel out manned and overwhelmed. One quick button press and War can gain stone like armor or catch on fire to do fire damage to all of his attackers, along with other abilities that are great to play around with. These work perfectly with the overall fighting scheme and do not have any lag in casting or anything else that could disrupt the flow of a fight.
The combat system lends well to mixing things up and changing tactics at any given moment. You feel free to do what you want when fighting and the game doesn't punish your tactics by decreasing the amount of your reward for killing enemies based on how you choose to finish them off. Fighting can feel effortless to do a lot of destruction with a minimal amount of effort, just the way it should feel weilding the blade of supposedly the most feared Horseman. But conversely when the difficult baddies show up and my before tactics would fail leading to my death, I never felt overly punished when fighting a battle that I lost; I just had to devise a new plan of attack to get through the room.
Hell, the battle system is so good that even the horse battle sequences feel good. They aren't perfect, but it feels pretty epic riding around with a giant sand worm type thing chasing at your heals trying to sprint to avoid getting ripped to pieces.
In addition to the standard weapons and sub-weapons that I felt were so awesome, the ability to pick up a few extra weapons was very welcome and something that really differentiates Darksiders from God of War. War can pick up and throw cars at enemies, can beat enemies with street lamps and in sections where certain foes carry laser rifles (not the wuss pistol that you get as a main), you get to pick them up and shoot right back at the enemies creating sections where the normal hack 'n slash gameplay becomes more chaotic and distancing; another way Darksiders infuses variety into the game to spice things up here and there.
The opposing forces are fun to fight: A key part of a well-designed combat system, one that many designers seem to forget, is keeping the combat fun by having enemies that are enjoyable to fight. Darksiders manages to keep the enemies fun and interesting to fight in a number of ways.

Australia's 'gas shortage' is a fiction
Ben Courtice
The Gladstone LNG port in Queensland.
According to the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), electricity supply will be threatened as early as next year by "shortfalls in gas", or failing that, households may face cuts to their gas supply.
This absurd state of affairs is misleading because there is no gas shortage. As Sinead O'Connor sang of Ireland's Great Famine, "I want to talk about the "famine" /
About the fact there never really was one." As she related, "Meat fish vegetables / Were shipped out of the country under armed guard / To England while the Irish people starved."
Australia has actually become one of the world's biggest exporters of liquefied natural gas (LNG). We have plenty of gas — but it is being shipped overseas. In fact, gas companies are producing more gas than ever before.
Gas industry agenda
Talk of a "gas shortage" hides a more sinister agenda: the gas industry wants to be set free from the various state restrictions on fracking for unconventional gas such as shale and coal seam gas (CSG). In the vein of Naomi Klein's description of "disaster capitalism", a crisis (real or manufactured) is the perfect opportunity for big business to impose its own wishlist as a "solution".
Two factors are driving domestic gas prices up. First, the opening of the east coast gas network, via the Gladstone liquefied natural gas (LNG) port, to the export market, where prices are higher; and second, the fact that companies such as Santos signed export contracts for more gas than they could guarantee.
This is driving the desperate push by Santos and others to open new CSG and shale gas fracking fields in NSW, and the moves for a gas pipeline to connect the Northern Territory to Queensland. It is also the reason South Australia experienced rolling blackouts during a period of peak electricity demand this summer. ENGIE, the operators of the idle Pelican Point gas-fired power station, decided it was more profitable to sell its gas to exporters than to operate a power station.
When this is combined with the closure of the large brown coal generator, Hazelwood, in Victoria, scaremongers in the Coalition parties are talking up the prospect of blackouts becoming common in Victoria. Are they and AEMO right?
Under the current electricity market, blackouts are a real threat because generators are paid more for their electricity if demand rises relative to supply. In other words, they have an incentive to produce less electricity and get paid much more for it due to scarcity.
Combine this with gas plants being given incentives to sell their gas overseas, and it is possible that more rolling blackouts could occur on days of high electricity demand like summer heatwaves. This is not the greatest disaster imaginable, but a sign of a system not working and certainly a cause of discomfort.
While the talk of "crisis" is being flogged for all it is worth by the big businesses, which want to impose the "solution" of open-slather fracking, it is unlikely these will benefit ordinary Australians. Progressives should combine forces to impose a better solution. There are several potential avenues already on the table from state and federal governments.
A gas reservation policy, to ensure a proportion of gas is guaranteed to the domestic market, has been promoted by some. Despite Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull approaching the gas exporters, cap-in-hand, to demand they allocate some gas to the domestic market, it is unlikely to be available at anywhere near the historical cheap prices. Gas power generation is already the most expensive in the grid.
South Australian premier Jay Weatherill, sitting at the exposed end of the electricity grid where any shortage will be felt most keenly, has proposed an array of measures including solar, large-scale battery backup energy storage, and (perplexingly) a new gas power station. They plan to use these to intervene to protect South Australia's interests in the National Electricity Market, a seemingly radical step.
At the same time, South Australia has introduced incentives for farmers to host gas fracking — landowners are to receive a 5% share of royalties generated from each well on their property. This could divide farming communities, which have so far been united against the gas industry.
The Hazelwood power station had supplied about a fifth of the state's electricity generation capacity. The state government has now authorised an expansion to the Loy Yang B coal power station, while initiating a relatively ambitious target to source 40% of the state's electricity from renewables by 2025, and banning fracking outright. This has angered the gas exporters greatly and the federal government has been echoing their calls to reverse the ban.
Turnbull's federal proposal for an addition to the Snowy Mountains hydro-electric scheme is possibly pie-in-the-sky. It is expensive, will take a number of years to build and needs the support of state governments. In operation, it would probably render the expensive gas power generators obsolete. It might please coal generators and would not hurt the gas exporters, as the pumped hydro system could effectively store coal power to use — instead of gas — in periods of peak electricity demand. On the other hand it is appealing to supporters of renewable energy because, if combined with strong renewable targets, it may provide energy storage for renewables instead of coal.
Do we need gas?
The elephant in the room is that Australia no longer needs to use any gas, not just in power generation but across the board — other than in a few specialised industries such as ammonia and plastics' production. This should be cause for celebration: gas is expensive, dangerous and a major source of greenhouse gases.
Gas is methane, one of the most powerful of the common greenhouse gases. Over a 20-year timescale, its warming impact is more than 80 times that of carbon dioxide. Just a tiny percentage of leaking gas makes it as bad as coal for the climate — and it could easily be leaking that much from shoddy CSG wells.
The LNG that is exported takes a lot of energy to pipe, compress and ship — meaning customers, such as Japan, are not getting a "low emissions" fuel, but something comparable to coal, even without factoring in methane leakage.
But in most applications, a combination of energy efficiency and upgrading to electric devices can remove the need for gas. Certainly, no home need have a gas connection any more — if they can afford to pay to replace hot water, heating and cooking appliances.
Transition to renewables
A sensible climate policy would advocate not just a fast transition to renewable energy but a plan to get Australia off gas — both our exports and domestic use. Renewable energy can replace gas in power generation, whether hydro storage, batteries, or solar thermal. Many industrial processes can be replaced. Home energy use, typically highly inefficient and expensive, is an easy target for savings, both on reductions in household energy use and by avoiding the expense of maintaining a gas grid in parallel with the electricity grid.
We need a comprehensive program to reduce energy waste in all homes and workplaces. This should be done from the street level up, but with proper oversight and planning this time (learning from the failures of the Kevin Rudd government's home insulation scheme). Not only could household electricity use be slashed dramatically and solar power increased, it could be orchestrated with a planned and staged shutdown of existing gas reticulation networks, suburb by suburb and town by town.
These policies would create a significant number of jobs and would develop help depressed regional economies, as well as putting Australia on the road to meeting the Paris agreement on climate change.
Regardless of whether the gas crisis is all it is cracked up to be, we need these solutions.

2017 KIM JAE JOONG ASIA TOUR 'The REBIRTH of J' was an international concert tour of JYJ's member Kim Jaejoong. The tour was organized to support his second studio album NO.X and was Kim's first headlining tour after completing his South Korea's military service for a year and nine months. After holding his first hologram concert in 2016 to promote the same album, this new tour visited five Asian countries in nine cities from January to early April 2017, starting from South Korea to Taiwan.

C-JeS Entertainment first announced the start of the The Rebirth of J tour with shows in Seoul, Yokohama, Osaka and Nagoya on December 31, 2016 through JYJ Japan Official Website. MelOn Ticket was the ticketing agency for the shows in Seoul and the sales took place on January 2, 2017. LOOK Korea was the only exclusive authorized dealer and travel agent for international and Japanese fans.
On January 16, 2017, five more shows were added to the tour including stops in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Thailand, Macao and Taiwan. The concert organizer for the Bangkok show, IME Asia, revealed the show's concert date on the same day. Ticket sales for the Hong Kong show began the following day after the same show was officially announced on January 25, 2017. The date for the Taiwan concert was revealed on January 26, 2017. Kim announced two additional Japanese encore shows in Saitama during the first day of the Yokohama concert. The announced stops in Tokyo were replaced by Saitama as the final concert in Japan. The concert in Macao was Kim's first ever performance as a solo artist and as a JYJ trio.

Kim enlisted in the South Korea's military on March 31, 2015. While serving his military service, he released his second full-length album NO.X on February 12, 2016 and held three shows of 2016 KIM JAE JOONG 2nd ALBUM HOLOGRAM REAL LIVE CONCERT in Tokyo and Seoul from February till April 2016, all of which were entirely prepared before his enlistment. On December 31, 2016, Kim held a special mini fansigning event at COEX Live Plaza after discharging from the military a day earlier.
The tour featured songs from his I mini album, and WWW and NO.X studio albums. All shows lasted for about two and a half hours except the Japanese concerts which ran for three hours. The first Osaka concert was four hours long and it was Kim's first performance in Osaka after more than three years since his last WWW Asian tour.
A concert poster photo shoot was carried out on January 5, 2017 as revealed in a V LIVE broadcast and different concepts for the shoot were prepared. The tour's opening sequence was filmed on the following day. The concert tour logo was designed by Kim himself.
The concerts in South Korea and Japan had an extended opening intro accompanied by a laser show.
In Bangkok, 200 fans were chosen to attend an open press conference which was held in Central World Department Store and 50 fans for autographed posters. In Kaohsiung, Kim pulled an April Fools' Day prank by pretending to collapse on stage during the second half of "Good Morning Night".

19 songs were performed in each show. "지켜줄게(I'll Protect You)", an original soundtrack from the TV drama series Protect the Boss, was included in the set list as one of the encores. Kim was accompanied by seven live concert band members on stage. Kim held a 'Dress Code' talk session throughout the tour, where he spoke to his audience about their special outfit backstage through on-stage screens. In Hong Kong, Bangkok and Macao, this session was entirely done on stage.
In Seoul, he celebrated his birthday in advance on stage towards the end of the concert on January 22, 2017.
Kim showcased a special stage that can only be seen in his Japanese concerts where he performed "One Kiss", "Good Morning Night" and "Just Another Girl" live in Japanese for the first time. Both Japanese renditions of "Love You More" and "守ってあげる(I'll Protect You)" were also sung live for the first time only during the Saitama encore concerts.
"Butterfly" was performed for the first time in the Bangkok show, replacing "Love You More" as the encore track. It was performed again in Macao and Kaohsiung.

The main stage for the The Rebirth of J tour had a distinctive separated first and second floors. The high-quality projections shown during the shows did not have a concept to follow but each song had different moods in the video. In each performance, the background or imagery pictures appear behind Kim when he was on the main stage.
Concept and details for lighting and video design were put into consideration to meet the standards of Kim as a global artist. Combining with the on-stage screen clips and stage lighting, Kim looked as if he was hanging in mid-air during "원망해요(All I Desire)" when he was on the elevated extended stage.
Lyrics for "서랍(Drawer)" and "지켜줄게(I'll Protect You)" were projected onto the main stage screen and two large screens on both sides of the stage to allow fans to understand them better.
In Seoul, the entire T-shaped extended stage can be elevated and rotated 90 degrees, and was entirely transparent except a middle square platform that featured as another stage screen. This screen displayed similar content and changed color tones according to the onstage screen. The T stage was like a fashion runway which provoked a party-like atmosphere. The elevated stage allowed Kim to see his audience on the upper floors at eye level. A lot of effort was put into sound design for the Seoul concert as the venue was a gymnasium instead of a proper musical hall and also because of most of Kim's songs required higher vocal range.

A special concert website was set up for the tour in Japan on December 31, 2016. A 20-second video teaser was released and advertised in train stations to promote the shows in Seoul on December 31, 2016 onwards. The official logo for the concert in Seoul was revealed by MelOn Ticket on January 4, 2017 while the concert poster was unveiled on January 16, 2017. A new promotional poster for the Japan tour, which featured a completely different theme and backdrop, was released by C-JeS Entertainment on February 7, 2017.
An exclusive video message by Kim to his fans for the shows in Yokohama, Osaka and Nagoya was revealed on January 30, 2017 and for Saitama concert on January 8, 2017. Kim promoted his Bangkok concert through a 1-minute greeting video message on February 6, 2017.
The tour's 30s TV spot promoting the encore Saitama shows was released on February 11, 2017. Promotional trucks operated in Tokyo from February 15 to 24, 2017 ahead of the encore Japanese shows.
The Rebirth of J tour's first press conference was held in Hong Kong on March 11, 2017. The second open press conference of the tour was held in Central World Department Store in Bangkok.

A 3-minute concert highlights and behind the stage scenes from the Seoul show was broadcast on NAVER TV and V LIVE on February 4, 2017. A concert making clip for the Yokohama and Saitama shows were released on NAVER TV and V LIVE on February 24, 2017 and March 7, 2017, respectively.

V LIVE released the second half of the "Good Morning Night" performance in Nagoya on April 5, 2017.
Prior to the start of the last Nagoya concert, Kim went live to speak and answer a few fan questions on V LIVE on February 22, 2017. Kim also went live before he started his Hong Kong and Macao shows on V LIVE on March 11, 2017 and March 25, 2017, respectively.
A 12-minute clip featuring an interview with Kim for the Hong Kong concert was aired on TVB Entertainment for its StarTalk segment on March 25, 2017. Kim did an exclusive interview with VIU Thailand for the Bangkok show and the 5-minute interview clip was released on March 19, 2017, and for Nine Entertain Night Live aired on March 24, 2017. A special 12-minute interview of Kim with Tofu Pop Radio for the same show was released on March 29, 2017. Kim's interview with ETtoday for the concert in Kaohsiung was released on April 13, 2017 while the concert highlights were released in a 3-minute clip by MTV 我愛偶像 Idols of Asia on the next day.

Robert Griffin III Should Take Responsibility for Injury, Career, Not Mike Shanahan
by Jen Slothower on Mon, Jan 7, 2013 at 11:24AM
When Robert Griffin III wrenched his knee on the chewed-up FedEx Field turf on Sunday night, it was a fluke. He has charged into much worse situations before, and the leg-twisting that happened as he looked for a fumbled snap was one of those unfortunate accidents that come from a bad mix of a mistake and a quick reaction.
But, while the play that finally knocked Griffin out of the Redskins-Seahawks wild card game was a fluke, that Griffin had to leave the game was not an accident — it was a matter of time.
Griffin came into the game banged up, and he aggravated his already-touchy knee in the first half while scrambling. With the Seattle defense bearing down constantly and Griffin trying to make plays with his legs, an injury was going to happen. It just ended up happening on a botched play.
Critics have been calling out Redskins coach Mike Shanahan for keeping Griffin in the game, although Griffin was emphatic afterward that he was not going to be taken out, even if he was hurt. The coach certainly has a responsibility in this situation, and he's correct to be criticized. But the main point here should not be what Shanahan did.
The real issue is what kind of career Griffin wants to have.
Ultimately, Griffin is the one who will decide whether he will become a truly great running quarterback, or whether his determination to take hits and play through injuries will limit him as a player and hurt his team. Whatever his coaches decide, he is the one taking the shots with his injuries and his career, and those decisions are what people should be focusing on now.
Griffin has plenty of examples to look at as he decides how to chart his path. In Pittsburgh, Ben Roethlisberger was unavailable this year when his team needed him most after missing several games due to hard hits. In Philadelphia, Michael Vick is no longer a freewheeling playmaker, but rather a battered soul. Conversely, in Green Bay, Aaron Rodgers is as tough as ever but not missing pivotal plays and games. In New England, while not fleet-footed, Tom Brady is going to wisely slide every time so he doesn't miss a snap.
The problem here is that the question of helping the team, which Griffin cited in his decision to keep playing, has been incorrectly framed. When Griffin and others talk of staying on the field with injuries, they present it as a question of whether to play, and help the team, or not play, and be selfish. But really, as the best quarterbacks in the league have shown, the best way a player can help his team is by being available to play every game.
Griffin should think long and hard about insisting on going back into games when injured — or circumventing his coaches or medical staff — but where he really needs to do the work is on the field. The play on which Griffin was injured in the first half was not one where he needed to be taking a hit, and it was preceded by several other scrambles where Griffin put his shoulder down and dove for a yard inbounds rather than scampering out of bounds a hash mark earlier.
Fighting for an extra yard as a running quarterback is not heroic. It's stupid. It's betting the house to win the lottery when you could just as easily hold some money and turn it into a smaller jackpot.
Griffin needs to do some thinking in the offseason about what he wants to accomplish in his career, and what odds he needs to play to get there. If he wants to get every yard every time, he can keep playing the way he has. But if he wants to remain in games, play a full season or even have a long career, he needs to start studying ways that he can produce while protecting his body. He should spend just as much time figuring out how he can run for eight yards without getting hurt (rather than 10 yards with a knee twist that could linger for six games) as he does scouting opposing teams' defenses.
Griffin doesn't have to give up his game, and everything that makes him a unique and great player, to be safer — and available for his team. The Eagles again pose a fine example. While Vick has been a test case for how an immensely talented quarterback gets slammed into oblivion and loses the ability to make good use of his legs, Donovan McNabb was also once known for being able to run around defenses, yet he didn't lose the same amount of significant time to injuries. If what is most important for the team is having its quarterback available, the game must be adjusted, no matter how many running yards are enticingly available.
A new approach to how he attacks the game, and when he chooses to stay in games once he gets hurt, is what will determine if Griffin is going to be the Redskins' leader for some time.
Griffin is a great player and a great leader, and he shouldn't be faulted for wanting to do the right thing and play hard. But the bravado this Sunday that accompanied what could be a more harmful injury should be a rookie mistake.
In the future, Griffin needs to remember that, just as rushing yards are only good if they help his team win, running with abandon is only good if he's healthy enough to take the field for his team for many years to come.

Talking about salary is tricky business. Pay conversations almost always involve emotions. Why? Because most employees equate self-worth with compensation. Few are able to completely separate their value as a person from the dollar value the company places on them. Here's worse news: it's your best people, not your average employees, who become most disillusioned and disengaged if pay expectations and pay reality are out of whack. More than any other employee/employer conversation, talking about pay has the highest risk of destroying morale, sapping productivity and eroding retention rates. Despite the danger, more than 53% of managers admit that their company has never offered training to teach them how to talk about compensation.
On the employee side, only about half of employees feel that their company does a good job of explaining pay programs. The solution lies in a dramatic change in the way your company, and especially individual managers, talk to employees about pay. This webinar will show you how. In this session, B21 top-rated speaker and performance management expert Wes Pruett will arm HR executives and managers with powerful techniques for conducting even the most emotional pay discussions with employees.

A low carb coconut milk strawberry smoothie that's so quick to make. It's made with only four low carb ingredients and takes less than 2 minutes to prepare.
I've been a little on the fence with fruit lately. It isn't a free for all low carb food and the fruit sugars can really add up if you aren't careful. I find that I have trouble keeping my portion sizes to one serving with fruit, particularly berries because they are so small.
I'm starting to get into the habit of calculating carb in a recipe before I make it. If the count for one serving is close to 10g per serving or higher, I adjust the recipe. I had to do that with this low carb coconut milk strawberry smoothie.
A serving of fruit is typically 1/2 cup and a half cup of strawberries contains 5.5g carbohydrates with 1.4g of that being fiber. That is totally within my serving carb limit, but most of the smoothie recipes use 1 cup of berries per serving.
I could have added ice cubes to water things down, but instead, I divided the recipe into two servings. This lets you enjoy the best flavor and and still limit carbs. And, you are staying within the recommended half cup for a serving of strawberries.
Believe me, I know how easy it is to eat a cup or more of sweet strawberries thinking it won't hurt because they are low carb. You really need to watch your portions before things get out of control!
There are only three key ingredients for making this delicious coconut milk strawberry smoothie. You'll need coconut milk, frozen strawberries, and a little almond butter.
I added some stevia sweetener to make it a sweeter treat, but you don't have to add any sweetener as strawberries are pretty sweet. You can also use almond milk instead of the coconut milk, but I prefer the taste of coconut in this recipe.
The best part of this recipe is that it's quick and easy to whip up! You just have to dump the ingredients in a blender and give it a spin. I let the NutriBullet go for about 15-30 seconds. So, this recipe is easily made in less than a minute.
I really like the style of my NutriBullet blender because it's small and convenient. I keep it right on my kitchen counter next to the coffeemaker. The one issue I have with it, is that it's not very good at chopping ice.
While shopping in a local mall a few weeks ago, I saw them using a Vitamix blender in a cooking demonstration at the Williams-Sonoma store. I know a lot of people swear by the Vitamix, but I've just never justified the cost.
However, the store demo sold me on the blender so I'm keeping my eye out for a good deal. Since the blenders I have don't crush ice well and my ice maker crusher is broken, I think this is the year that I'm finally going to treat myself with a higher end blender.
It's going to get good use making healthy low carb smoothies at home. The NutriBullet and my old Cuisinart blenders will do for now, but I'm thinking a nice Vitamix may be mine after Christmas.

I wrote this early treatment paper (2nd author) with McCullough & Risch & Ladapo & Oskoui and other top doctors and scientists; we adjusted recently the treatment algorithm to include povidone iodine
See abstract and Figure 3 is now adjusted to include povidone iodine in the white top box as a preventative and also to be used if exposed or infected...nasal oral wash (as well as hydrogen peroxide)
This remains the seminal early treatment paper and guidance.
The SARS-CoV-2 virus spreading across the world has led to surges of COVID-19 illness, hospitalizations, and death. The complex and multifaceted pathophysiology of life-threatening COVID-19 illness including viral mediated organ damage, cytokine storm, and thrombosis warrants early interventions to address all components of the devastating illness. In countries where therapeutic nihilism is prevalent, patients endure escalating symptoms and without early treatment can succumb to delayed in-hospital care and death. Prompt early initiation of sequenced multidrug therapy (SMDT) is a widely and currently available solution to stem the tide of hospitalizations and death. A multipronged therapeutic approach includes 1) adjuvant nutraceuticals, 2) combination intracellular anti-infective therapy, 3) inhaled/oral corticosteroids, 4) antiplatelet agents/anticoagulants, 5) supportive care including supplemental oxygen, monitoring, and telemedicine. Randomized trials of individual, novel oral therapies have not delivered tools for physicians to combat the pandemic in practice. No single therapeutic option thus far has been entirely effective and therefore a combination is required at this time. An urgent immediate pivot from single drug to SMDT regimens should be employed as a critical strategy to deal with the large numbers of acute COVID-19 patients with the aim of reducing the intensity and duration of symptoms and avoiding hospitalization and death.

2 shot off Candler Road in DeKalb County officer-involved shooting
The officer returned fire, hitting two of the four suspects as they drove off. The car crashed on Candler Road a short distance away.
Author: Adrianne Haney, Michael King
Published: 11:36 PM EST January 7, 2019
One robbery suspect was killed and one was hurt by an off-duty Clarkston police officer working as a part-time security officer at a Candler Road Red Lobster restaurant Monday night.
The shooting incident occurred at about 11 p.m. near the intersection of Candler Road and Winston Manor Drive in DeKalb County.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation's preliminary investigation indicates the officer was working at the Red Lobster in the 2500 block of Candler Road when he noticed a man being robbed in the parking lot.
When the officer went to render aid to the robbery victim, the four robbery suspects jumped into another car and shot at the officer and victim as they drove off.

The officer shot back at the suspects, hitting two of them.
The car left the parking lot before it crashed on Candler Road. The two suspects who were hit by gunfire were able to run from the scene. Their identities and whereabouts are not presently known.
The other two suspects - 20-year-old Qasim Abdullah and 26-year-old Darion Jones - were transported to Grady Memorial Hospital for treatment of gunshot wounds. Jones was pronounced dead at the hospital, while Abdullah received non-life-threatening injuries. No officers were hurt during the incident.

As is customary in officer-involved shootings, the GBI was requested to take over investigation of the incident.
This marks the second shooting along Candler Road in just two days.
Sunday night, police said a suspect fired off multiple rounds at a security guard who was escorting an unruly customer from inside a store less than a mile away from Monday night's shooting.
The GBI investigation remains ongoing. Once they conclude their investigation, it will be turned over to the DeKalb County District Attorney for review.
Editors note: This story has been updated to correct the name of the deceased suspect.

Africa Cosmopolitan in the New MillenniumConclusion: The In Between NotesPrimary Sources: BooksPrimary Sources: FilmsMajor Secondary Sources.
Africa has long gripped the American imagination. From the Edenic wilderness of Edgar Rice Burroughs's Tarzan novels to the 'black Zion' of Garvey's Back-to-Africa movement, all manner of Americans - whether white or black, male or female - have come to see Africa as an idealized stage on which they can fashion new, more authentic selves. In this remarkable, panoramic work, David Peterson del Mar explores the ways in which American fantasies of Africa have evolved over time, as well as the role of Africans themselves in subverting American attitudes to their continent. Spanning seven decades, from the post-war period to the present day, and encompassing sources ranging from literature, film and music to accounts by missionaries, aid workers and travel writers, African, American is a fascinating deconstruction of 'Africa' as it exists in the American mindset.

2. The American family : from obligation to freedom [2011]
Peterson del Mar, David, 1957-
1st ed. - New York : Palgrave Macmillan, 2011.
Societies of Obligation The Search for Order in North America Revolution and Continuity Containing the Bourgeois Family Necessity and Tradition The First Modern Family The Family in Crisis and After Freedom's Florescence Countercultures.
"This book traces the movement from mutualism to individualism in the context of American family life. Throughout American history, families survived or even flourished during colonization, the Revolution, slavery, the industrial revolution, immigration, and economic upheaval because reliance on others was patently necessary. But in the past century, unprecedented prosperity both freed Americans from mutual dependence and created a culture devoted to the pursuit of pleasure and individual fulfilment. This shift from obligation to freedom has turned the maintenance of durable, rewarding families into a countercultural act, one that requires a conscious decision to qualify the American commitment to freedom.

6. Radical Departures
7. Thwarted and Splintered
8. Extreme Nature Loving.
Environmental movements have produced some impressive results, including cleaner air and the preservation of selected species and places. But movements that challenged western prosperity and comfort seldom made much progress, and many radical environmentalists have been unabashed utopianists. In this short guide, Peterson del Mar untangles this paradox by showing how prosperity is essential to environmentalism. Industrialisation made conservation sensible, but also drove people to look for meaning in nature even as they consumed its products more relentlessly. Hence Englandled the way in both manufacturing and preserving its countryside, and the United Statescreated a matchless set of national parks as it became the world's pre-eminent economic and military power. Environmentalismconsiders both the conservation and preservation movements and less organized forms of nature loving (from seaside vacations to ecotourism) to argue that these activities have commonly distracted us from the hard work of creating a sustainable and sensible relationship with the environment.

The word "violence" conjures up images of terrorism, bombings, and lynchings. Beaten Down is concerned with more prosaic acts of physical force - a husband slapping his wife, a parent taking a birch branch to a child, a pair of drunken friends squaring off to establish who is the "better man." David Peterson del Mar accounts for the social relations of power that lie behind this intimate form of violence, this "white noise" that has always been with us, humming quietly between more explosive acts of violence. Broad in its chronological and cultural sweep, Beaten Down examines interpersonal violence in Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia beginning with Native American cultures before colonization and continuing into the mid-twentieth century. It contrasts the disparate ways of practicing and punishing interpersonal violence on each side of the U.S.-Canadian border. Del Mar concludes that we cannot comprehend the causes and moral consequences of a violent act without considering larger social relations of power, whether between colonizers and original inhabitants, between spouses, between parents and children, or between and among different ethnic groups. The author has drawn on a vast array of vivid sources, including newspaper accounts, autobiographies, novels, oral histories, historical and ethnographic publications, and hundreds of detailed court cases to account for not only the relative frequency of different forms of violence, but also the shifting definitions and perceptions of what constitutes violence. This is a thoughtful and probing account of how and why people have hit each other and the manner in which opinion makers and ordinary citizens have censured, defended, or celebrated such acts. His conclusions have important implications for an understanding of violence and perceptions of violence in contemporary society. David Peterson del Mar is adjunct assistant professor of history at Portland State University and Oregon State University. He is the author of What Trouble I Have Seen: A History of Violence against Wives.

7. What trouble I have seen : a history of violence against wives [1996]
Cambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, 1996.
Book — xi, 244 p. ; 24 cm.
David Peterson del Mar centres his history of violence against wives on the state of Oregon. What causes such violence? Has it changed over time? How does it relate to the state of society as a whole? And how have women tried to stop it, resist it, escape it? These are the questions Peterson del Mar pursues. Thousands of documented divorce cases from the Oregon circuit courts are recorded. They speak of a society that quietly condoned wife beating until the spread of an ethos of self-restraint in the late-19th century. And then, Peterson del Mar finds, the practice increased with the expressive individualism of the 20th century. "What Trouble I Have Seen" also traces a shift in wives' response to their husbands' violence. Settler and Native American women commonly fought abusive mates. Most wives of the late-19th century acted more cautiously and relied on others for protection. But 20th century privatism, Peterson del Mar discovers, often isolated modern wives from family and neighbours, casting abused women on the mercy of the police, women's shelters, and, most important, their own resources. Thus a new emphasis on self-realization, even as it stimulated violence among men, enhanced the ability of women to resist and escape violent husbands.

It was 1869 and Sarah Moses, with "a very black eye, " told her father: The world will never know what trouble I have seen. What she'd seen was violence at the hands of her husband. Does the world know any more of such things today than it did in Sarah's time? Sarah, it so happens, lived in Oregon, that Edenic state on the Pacific Coast, and it is here that David Peterson del Mar centers his history of violence against wives. What causes such violence? Has it changed over time? How does it relate to the state of society as a whole? And how have women tried to stop it, resist it, escape it? These are the questions Peterson del Mar pursues, and the answers he finds are as fascinating as they are disturbing. Thousands of thickly documented divorce cases from the Oregon circuit courts let us listen to voices who often go unheard. These are the people who didn't keep diaries or leave autobiographies, who sometimes could not write at all. Here they speak of a society that quietly condoned wife beating until the spread of an ethos of self-restraint in the late nineteenth century. And then, Peterson del Mar finds, the practice increased with a vengeance with the florescence of expressive individualism during the twentieth century. What Trouble I Have Seen also traces a dramatic shift in wives' response to their husbands' violence. Settler and Native American women commonly fought abusive mates. Most wives of the late nineteenth century acted more cautiously and relied on others for protection. But twentieth-century privatism, Peterson del Mar discovers, often isolated modern wives from family and neighbors, casting abused women on the mercy of the police, women's shelters, and, most important, their own resources. Thus a new emphasis on self-determination, even as it stimulated violence among men, enhanced the ability of women to resist and escape violent husbands. The first sustained history of violence toward wives, What Trouble I Have Seen offers remarkable testimony to the impact of social trends on the most private arrangements, and the resilience of women subject to a seemingly timeless crime.

Well what a turn-up. From professional footballer to television presenter to green politician. Whatever next?
I am no longer a footballer. I am an industry.
— 1973 On being transferred from Ajax to Barcelona for a record »922,000. Quoted in Peter Ball and Phil Shaw The Book of Football Quotations (1989).
(After kicking an extra point in a Bengals preseason game) Esteban' Ochocinco is back, the most interesting footballer in the world. Everyone has to remember, I've always said that soccer is my No. 1 sport. I think Ronaldinho would be proud of me right now.
"People always talk about Ronaldinho, and everything but I didn't see him today - I saw Henrik Larsson. Two times he came on - he changed the game, that is what killed the game - sometimes you talk about Ronaldinho and Eto'o and people like that, you need to talk about the proper footballer who made the difference and that was Henrik Larsson tonight."
