Kevin: Renegade Health Radio. This is Kevin Gianni here with Frederic Patenaude.
Fred: Good afternoon, Kevin.
Kevin: Good afternoon.
Fred: How are you doing?
Kevin: For those of you out there who don't know, I've been writing a book with Hay House. By the way, they are fantastic publishers. I cannot say anything bad about their process. I think it's fantastic. They're great people, and I've finished almost all the chapters except for the epilogue, and I am printing out the entire book today, and I'm going to take it to a coffee shop and I'm not going to leave there for a whole week. Hopefully, they'll let me stay for 24 hours straight.
Fred: [laughs] Sounds good. And your book is…I know it's a long process, because you started this process in January 2014. And then it's going to be released in July of 2015, and we're not even in 2015 yet as we record this, so it's a long process to get a big book published like that.
Kevin: You know, it's amazing that it takes so long, because you know, we've self published some books before. We've had editors and we've done all these sorts of things. We've had graphic designers design the covers, like our High Raw book, for instance, and Fred, you've done the same thing. You have plenty of books that you've done, too, and it's amazing, like what the time frame of that is versus the timeframe of this. And so it's really remarkable. But they have lots of books to go through.
Fred: Exactly.
Kevin: But I'm excited about it. I think what you're going to find, those of you who are listening now, when this book comes out, I think that you're going to find a very refreshing, informative, interesting book on health. I think you are going to want to read it. I think you are going to enjoy it. What I did in the book, like, what I write about in the book, helped me lose almost 35 pounds since January, because I had gone through my organic, eat-whatever-I-want kind of phase, gained some weight, and finally came back into balance.
And it really wasn't that difficult. And I think that when you look at what I've done over the last six or seven months, or now eight months, is it's not very restrictive. You know, there are certain things that I do, like I switched out my breakfast to only have a green smoothie in the morning. I think that in itself might be a very strong weight loss agent, or weight loss trick, or weight loss "hack," if you will. And some other things, I mean, just simply cut back a little bit. And I still can enjoy a whole heck of a lot of things, of course organic, and of course, you know, highly and properly sourced, but it's not been restrictive.
And my hope is that when you read this book, you are going to say…and particularly if you want to lose a couple of pounds or you just want to be healthy and not have to worry about it anymore, but to think of like, when you are eating your lunch, not thinking about what you are going to eat for dinner. I mean, I can't…I mean, Fred, I'm sure you've been through this, too. Like it's an endless cycle of like, you know, what food am I going to eat next? This book is going to help with that. So I'm excited to bring it to you, eventually. I can't bring it to you now, because…
Fred: Yeah, and for having read parts of it, Kevin, I do agree that it's going to deliver on the promise you just made, so looking forward to that.
Kevin: Fantastic. Today we are not talking about the book, though. We are talking about natural hygiene. And we are talking about…I think it's more than just natural hygiene. What we're going to be talking about today is how health myths are propagated and which ones are wrong. And some…we are going to explain some that are wrong. And then what that means to you as a reader or a consumer of this information. Does that sound about right, Fred?
Fred: Yeah, the mistakes of natural hygiene. And I think that the way to summarize this, to go in a direction that applies to even more health philosophies, is that sometimes the contrarian idea is the right idea. And sometimes we want to be contrarian for being contrarian, but it's not the right idea.
So you know, we could say that, let's say that eating a green smoothie for breakfast is a contrarian idea compared to let's say, eating the standard breakfast. And some nutritionist might say, "Well, you don't have enough protein or you don't have enough of that," but we find that it works and there's lots of reasons in science. And then eventually nutritional knowledge progresses and we realize, "Yeah, you know we need more fruits and vegetables and blah, blah, blah, and this is a great breakfast."
But sometimes the contrarian idea is partly true, but then partly totally wrong. And then that myth gets perpetrated in this field. So what seems like common knowledge outside of the natural health circle is actually not believed to be true inside of the natural health circle. So let's talk about that.
Kevin: Yeah. Well, let's start. You're much more well-versed in natural hygiene than I am. Why don't you give everyone a definition for those who don't know what it is.
Fred: All right. Well, natural hygiene, even though people might not know the term, they've probably, they most likely have experienced the results in terms of public health policies of early natural hygienists. So people call themselves natural hygienists. It's a movement that started, let's say, 150 years ago in the United States that was inspired by the naturopaths of Europe, mainly in Germany. And those people, initially they called their therapy was…it was "nature therapy" or "hydrotherapy" from water. And they had other names like that. And "health reformist" was another name.
And what they did is they went against the common beliefs of medicine at that time, which was, as we know now, completely backwards. People at that time believed that fresh air was bad for your health, and that the sick people with a fever should be locked up inside a room with no circulating air, and then drink no water and drink whiskey to get better, and all kinds of things like that. They thought that bathing was bad for your health.
So the early natural hygienists actually spread those concepts of good health through hygienic practices. That's where the name comes from. For example, bathing as being a good thing, and eventually the medical community embracing the idea, but it took them a long time to actually say that we should take a shower or bath every day, or more or less.
So that's how natural hygiene began in 1850, how fasting was rediscovered. And for example, you know, fasting was rediscovered by Dr. Jennings, which is considered like the father of natural hygiene. And he gave people like placebos, so sugar pills, instead of giving them the regular treatment. And people would get better, because the treatment was so harmful back in the days. Like it was actually…you took the treatment and you would die from the treatment because there was no science behind it. And then from there he developed a practice of fasting. And there were other people like Dr. Kellogg, which you might know from the Kellogg's Corn Flakes, but that was his brother who started this business. But the other brother, John Kellogg, started a center where people ate a healthy diet and fasted and lived a sober life. Like there are…if you go back to those days, there were actually lots of diseases that we don't even know today. Like I think it's a disease of dysentery. Is that the right word in English?
Kevin: Yeah sure.
Fred: It's not a word we use today, but people ate so much food and so much like bad food like big breakfasts full of sausage and then bacon and just like fat and fat and grease all the time that they would develop these crazy digestive problems. And it was the disease of dysentery. And then they found, of course, the natural hygiene movement of that time found that it was, it could be solved by just eating a healthy diet and fasting and so on. So that's when natural hygiene comes from.
And then later, Dr. Shelton took all of these writings from older natural hygienists and called that, you know, he's the one who coined the term "natural hygiene" at the beginning of the last century. And then had a fasting center in Texas and wrote a bunch of books and developed this into what we could call a science and an art.
So I think natural hygiene had a lot of great ideas in terms of diet and so on. I mean, just the idea of eating more raw foods and eating more fruits and vegetables instead of lots of grains and meat and so on comes from those natural hygienists. So I think, you know, they were really ahead of their time. But as we'll talk about today, some of their beliefs were based on the limited scientific knowledge of the time, and are not actually accurate. So those, I would call them "mistakes" of natural hygiene.
Kevin: And I think the most popular natural hygiene literature, if you will, is Fit for Life. You know, Harvey Diamond's book. And I think when you say that, every one is like, "Oh yeah, yeah, yeah I get it. I know what it is." And Harvey Diamond doesn't eat that way anymore. Tony Robins who use to teach Fit for Life has rescinded his support of it way back when, saying "I don't know. I was just a phase." I actually saw a video on recently. I don't know where I came across.
But I think before we delve into some of these errors or these mistakes, I want everyone to be, and the way I think about this, is that we are looking at this to determine what other diet principles are wrong and where can we be more flexible? And I think that this is like the big overriding picture. Because once you get so deep into a theory, you start to put blinders on and you start to not be open to other options or other opportunities. So for me, when I got bit by a tick, I don't even know if it was seven or eight or five years ago. It was more than five years ago. I don't remember. But I was lying in bed and I felt this like weird kind of like itchiness on my leg, and I looked down and I see this big red rash and circle. And then right in the middle there's this little tiny deer tick. And I'm like, "Oh no. I have Lyme disease."
And so I went to the doctor, who's a friend of the family, because I was back in Connecticut, and she was like, here, you know, here is 21 days of doxycycline, which is an antibiotic. And this was at a point where I was not open. I had my blinders on. I was into this like, all natural medicine works, all other western medicine doesn't. You know, just split. I still probably felt like if I broke a leg I'd get a cast or something like that, so I wasn't that extreme, but I'm in this like duality kind of mindset. So there's black and white. There's natural, and there's western medicine.
So I get the 21 days of antibiotics, but I leave them on my desk. I don't take them, and I called two natural doctors that I know. Both of them nearly laughed at me, I mean, in a good way, you know what I mean? They were just like, "What are you talking about?" Like, "This is Lyme disease, this isn't a…" I don't even know, it's taking out like a little rash on your hand or something like that. I mean, this is a big deal. This could be an entire lifetime of neurological problems.
And so I said, "Okay, all right, well you know, you could get…I trust both of you guys. I'll take the 21 days of antibiotics." And you know, the justification—Dr. Williams is one of the doctors that I talked to—the justification was like, "Hey, what would you rather like to repair. A gut imbalance? Or again, something that actually is irreparable, which is neurological damage?" And so that was pretty easy for me to come to terms with that. It made a lot of sense to me, even though I was still in this duality.
And then this was totally reaffirmed. Annmarie…I did do the 21 days of antibiotics, but also did Stephen Beuner's approach, which I believe is Healing Lyme. I believe that's the book. I don't remember exactly right now. But Annmarie went to go to a natural health store in Connecticut to get some of these herbs. And the guy behind the counter, who is the owner, looked at the herbs, and he's like, "What are you doing?" Because he had known, I mean he just…I mean, he must see people coming all the time with, you know, to buy those certain herbs. I mean, there were herbs in a combination that, you know, like people don't normally buy. I remember cats claw and like you know, a few other things. He was like, "What? Wait a minute. This is very specific." And I think Japanese knotweed, and a few other things.
And so he's like, "Look," he's like, "I think I know what you are trying to do here. This is for Lyme." And she says, "Yeah, yeah my husband got bit by a tick." And he's like, he literally almost instantly like reached out his hand and he looked at her and he said, "Look at my hand." He said, "I tried the natural approach," and his hand was just like shaking. It was literally just twitching. He couldn't hold it straight. He's like, "I tried the natural approach ten years ago and this is what I'm stuck with." And he's like, "Tell him to take the antibiotics."
So that's what we're going to delve into here. We're going to delve into the reasons why we have to be a little bit more flexible.
Fred: Yeah, this is a good story, Kevin, because I think that's…I mean, you see a lot of people that try, you know, you want to try the natural treatment first because sometimes the medical treatment does more harm than good. And there are like interesting new research coming out on this that there's a lot of over-diagnosing going on right now in the medical community. And these are not just like natural people that are talking about this. Like regular medical doctors are talking about this problem. So sometimes you want to do some good and you end up doing some harm. Like you take blood pressure medication when maybe you had a slightly higher blood pressure than most people, but the benefits of taking the medication if you are in that range of you know, you're not that bad but you are just a little abnormal, is not that great. But the benefit curve rises as you get out of that normal range, right? So I think that's the case with drugs is sometimes, I mean yes, they do some harm, but they do a lot more good than harm. And sometimes it's the other way around, you know?
So it's knowing when, but usually, I mean, getting the opinion of medical doctors that have also like a strong kind of natural bias where they will try to use the natural method when they can, but not be religious about it, and know when to know the difference is the most important thing.
I wanted to just mention like one of the mistakes of natural hygiene, and this is something that I actually believed for a long time. So it has to do with the germ theory. And when I first got into natural hygiene in health, I bought the idea that, you know the entire theory of disease is wrong. That people mainly gets sick because of what they do. And it's still true, I mean, most disease are caused by lifestyle. But the germ theory, which is not really a theory anymore, I mean, in science they use the word "theory" like "the theory of gravity." But it's a theory even though it's proven, right? It's still called a theory.
So I bought the belief that diseases like the flu essentially were the body's efforts to detoxify itself. And that kind of, you know, I remained with that idea for a while until I noticed that it just wasn't like that. In practice, people got sick because of contagious…a contagion, and of course if they were healthier, they tended to get sick for not as long, or maybe not catch the virus and so on as quickly, or as likely as other people, but it was still caused by something contagious like a virus, bacteria, infection or something like that. And the final realization came when I hadn't been sick for a while, and of course I was just working on my own, not seeing many people on a daily basis, so I thought, "Hey, I'm so healthy that I don't get sick." And you know this whole thing isn't true, people don't get sick. And then I went to a conference where there was like 250 other people. And a lot of people were coughing in the room and so on, and some of those people were supposedly healthy. And then my girlfriend got sick and then I got sick and we're both sick with the flu, essentially.
So it just struck me, it's not a coincidence that I just got sick from having been around all those people. And usually the people who say they never get sick—they don't have kids, they work from home and so on, but when usually people get sick more often are in contact with more people on a regular basis. So we are not going to go into like obviously all the reasons why this is true, that you can catch a disease, but it's true. And then mistake number one, or one of the mistakes of natural hygiene, is just claiming that all diseases are just purely caused by diet and lifestyle.
Kevin: And I think what comes from natural hygiene, too, is that like healthy people shouldn't get sick. I think that that kind of comes from that type of thought process, too. Would you agree with that?
Fred: Oh yeah. I think that's another one. Healthy people never get sick. Yeah, you do get sick and people die of something. And everybody who's going to die, unless you die from an accident, death is caused by something breaking down in the body. And it's natural over time as the body gets older that things break down. And I even think that the reason why healthy people don't, you know, we don't necessarily get cancer as much as other people, has to do with our limited lifespan. I think that if the human being lived 200 years, you'd see a lot more cancer as you go along. And they found this in doing autopsies from people who were supposedly healthy and died at a relatively old age. And they found, hey, you know there's actually a lot of stuff going on in the body that was wrong, like cancerous tumors and stuff, but it just didn't live long enough for those things to become a problem.
That's also the problem with over-diagnosis is often we treat things that would have been a problem much later on down the road, like there's a lot of research just coming out on prostate cancer that there's just overtreatment of prostate cancer, and most people would die of other things before that even became a problem. And then the treatment becomes more a problem than the disease.
But things break down and nobody…you look at all these natural health experts, they died of something, eventually. And usually of the body breaking down in some kind of way. And if you look at how, just how evolution works on our planet, why do species evolve? It's because there's a mutation, and then sometimes the mutation is advantageous, in the DNA. You know, mutation in the DNA? The bear gets a mutation, the black bear. And it gets a white coat in the great north, and a white, you know, the white-furred bears ended up having an advantage because they can sneak up on their prey, you know, without them noticing as much. So they live longer. And eventually all of the bears living in the north benefit from that mutation, and then they all become white bears as we know, I mean not white. What do they call it? Polar bears as we know them today. But it started from a mutation.
But obviously, if mutations can lead to positive evolution, they also have to have the opposite effects. So lots of times people, you know, you're born with a genetic defect and it's not to your advantage, right? In fact, it's the opposite. It's going to lead to your early demise. And I don't think there's a lot we can do against that. We can just try our best to deal with the cards we've been dealt with from birth, but you know, it's a dream to think that diet is going to solve everything.
Kevin: Of course. It's helpful to know. I mean, it's helpful to know the genes that you have and the mutations that you have. I've run a full 23 and me report and taken it to LiveWello, which is a site where you can pay to have—I think it's like $19 or something like that—where you can pay to actually have it, analyze it, and show you your detoxification channels, methylation channels, show where these things are somewhat imbalanced, or were mutated, and you can help yourself by eating in a way that maybe steers away from triggering some of those genes. But again, there's some level of like, we do have a finite lifestyle, lifespan. I mean, you know that's, you know, we will die eventually, right? You know, every animal dies. So that's that point. But you definitely can expand, at least your existing…at least you can expand or you can improve your existing lifetime. You can expand, or you can have a better experience with healthy decisions based on your genes.
One thing I do want to talk about before we go is this short sightedness, you know, again, I wanted to kind of touch on that again, because I don't know if this necessarily comes from natural hygiene, but I know it does, because part of it does, because natural hygiene is very, very adamant about the fact of not eating any additional processed oils. So olive oil, coconut oil, or any oil that's been extracted from a nut or a fruit, like that. And what's really interesting is that, as I kind of dive…as I was diving into the book, and particularly the chapter on sugar, you know, we look at sugar as being this thing that causes diabetes, right? And we say, "Yeah, lots of sugar causes diabetes." And when I dove deeper into the research, I noticed that it really necessarily wasn't lots of sugar, but it's lots of sugar and lots of fat. Because when you have fat in your bloodstream along with sugar, what happens is that the insulin doesn't become as active. I mean, it becomes active, but it's not able to find the sugar that well, so your body produces more of it just because the bloodstream is clogged up with fat. And this is really what can cause the overactive pancreas, that eventually causes type 2 diabetes.
And when I look at it that way—and you don't hear many people talking about the combination of the two. You are just like, you know, high-fat diet, you can get sick, you can get heart disease, you can possibly get diabetes. High-sugar diet, yeah, you can get diabetes, but when you remove the fat from a higher sugar or a high-carb diet, which again is kind of like the natural hygiene kind of approach, you could eat some, you eat fruit, you eat greens, you have this low-fat, I guess you could say, the China study diet, which is 80% carbohydrates, 10% fat, 10% protein. What you get is also…what you get is an anti-diabetes diet, as well as if you switch and you eat more protein, more fat, lots of vegetables, but very little sugar. They both are effective for diabetes, which is really interesting.
So the natural hygiene, I think, gets part of it right, but they don't look at the entire other side of the swing, where if you are eating this other type of diet, which I would say is probably Paleo or kind of in that category, you also can protect yourself from disease, even heart disease, if you are eating, again, if you are eating omega-3 rich animal foods.
Fred: I agree, Kevin. It's this combination that's deadly. And natural hygiene gets it partly right when they talk about this, but yeah, there are more ways to arrive at the same destination in terms of…but like I've been saying for years, if you are going to eat like a diet with a lot of fruit, like a fruit-based diet, you better make sure you don't eat too much fat, because that combination is what you see in a lot of raw diets where everything is permitted as long as it's raw. So people end up eating like, you know, they make a lot of juice, which is sugar, they eat a lot of fruit, which is sugar, dried fruit, sugar. So a lot of sugar. And then they also eat lots of nuts, oils, and then this is like deadly combination where you feel like crap all the time. You don't have energy and eventually you develop blood sugar imbalances and so on.
So I think that's why people who are following a raw food diet are even more adamant about cutting out the fat to create a more successful diet. And I found that if I replace—I still eat a lot of fruit, you know, compared to like the average person, but not as much as when I was a raw foodist. So I find that allows me to increase a little bit the amount of fat that I'm eating on a daily basis to maybe like 20%-25% of total calories versus 10%. But if I ate more fruit, I would need to reduce the fat, and so on. So it's interesting that you are mentioning that, because that's so true.
Kevin: It's crazy. And what's interesting is that as I'm diving through the research, the most prominent research that I found about this was like 2011. I mean, it's very strange that this is…and I'm sure maybe there's research from before this. I I'm sure that people have found this before, but you know, the easiest to find is 2011 where people are saying, "Oh, there is a link between the sugar and the fat in the blood with diabetics." And you are just like, "Yes!" I'm like, "It makes total sense!" you know? And you wonder, you know, these diet extremes, there's two people, you know, on total opposing viewpoints fighting each other, but they should be like cheering each other on, because they're both fighting disease.
Fred: Yeah, exactly.
Kevin: All right. So high-fat, high-sugar, watch out for that. Look at your diet today. Take a moment to just like say, "Hey, what am I eating? Am I eating high fat, high sugar? Is this a problem?" We'd love to hear if you are, you know, what you're going to do to, which way you are going to go to get yourself healthier.
If you want to, we would love for you guys to also post a comment on the iTunes site for this podcast. If you like it, if you found anything valuable today, go ahead and post a comment and we'll talk to you next time.
Robert Blomberg says:
My girlfriend had Lyme's for 8 years and got rid of it after briefly using nano-silver. You should have stuck to your non-traditional guns.
Try to get to the point more quickly. Ok, less oil with sugar for diabetes. End of story.
I think you boys developed your constitution based on you level of personal discipline and haphazard, random observations rather than clinical studies. All the while ignoring the accomplishments of Shelton, Dr. Goldhamer, Dr. Esser, Dr. Benish and the like, They're responsible for documented life saving and live extending treatment for patients – who were told to get their affairs in order by western medicine – using Hygiene, for which fasting is the center piece. Dr. Benish guided me with my 29 year old son from the age of three stating that if I fed my son correctly, he wouldn't get cold or need antibiotics of vaccinations, and he didn't from that point on, He went on to lettered in track in high school gradate with honors and get a degree from UCSB, avoiding colds and previous painful ear aches that plagued him to that point all the while he was surrounded by folks that eat like you do.
As for Harvey Diamond being a spokesperson for Hygiene, you're kidding right? Check out what he's really about in "Diamond Ventures". He's no more than you two magic bullet pushing bloggers with no clinical studies on patients to determine if what he chooses to parrot actually benefits people or not. I don't care if you want to explore for your own experimentation whatever may fancy or satisfy you taste buds, but distinguishes what you're really after – money – from the truth and science.
Knowing someone with CLL, trust me, Dr. Goldhamer can help extend you life with a simple, free phone consultation. It's all about discipline, not what taste good or is convenient to drum up. Something someone who can get 35 pounds over weight at your age, is obviously lacking.
What about if you have Candida? Can you eat fruit if you don't eat much fat?
Frank P. Sweet, NMD says:
I still believe in the natural theory and the GERM theory. Louise Pasteur was bought and owned by the drug companies of the time. Remember Dr. Bechamp. The trouble today, whether you want to believe it or not, is the government created many of the pathogens such as HIV, Lyme, Herpes, HPV and I could go on forever. Then there is the chemtrail problem. My mother picked hundreds of deer ticks off my body in Virginia where I was raised. I have practiced for 25 years and belong to the American Academy of Antiaging and many other organizations. In Arizona I have full prescriptions rights and I do write prescriptions.I also do fasting, chelation H2O2, phosphatidycholine, pharmaceuticals. As you may know death is programmed through the telomeres and we soon have that under control. Sadly man has degenerated to this point and the human genome demonstrates many defects. The earth is polluted and the NWO is determined to eliminate many people. I follow science and have a engineering degree and a medical degree but many of the health models are total bullshit. I listen to your pod cast and while very good it was very very basic.Be careful, this is a complicated situation. I never reduce fat in by patients diet because cholesterol is soo very good for you. All your hormones and adrenal hormones and vitamin D and your brain comes from cholesterol. Inflammation is the problem. I eat little sugar, or fruits but many organic veggies, Remember that all sugars not burned up turn into triglycerides( bad fats) which gives a false impression that meat and eggs are the problem which they are NOT. Inflammation is the problem.
Dr Halanna Matthew says:
Listening to your comments about the mistakes Natural Hygiene has made, I must tell you that I
totally disagree with your research. My first child was ill and when I wrote to Dr. Herbert Shelton
he replied in two days…I lived in Toronto Canada, he in San Antonio , Texas…..I did what he
recommended, after taking my child to nine doctors in nine months, with no results, ….but Dr. Shelton's
advice worked in one month……My children are now in their 40's….They have never caught the so
called comunicable diseases at school, were never vaccinated, and to this day, no one is ever sick or
has had to see a doctor. My mentors were Natural Hygiene doctors, most of them lived into their 90's
and did not die of any disease. Food was not high fat, but was balanced with some fruits, vegetables,
and one meal was protein, and another carbs, all balanced properly…..children slept from 7 to 7 and
were very easy to raise, they were happy healthy smart children.
I do not think you have spoken to numerous people who were living a balanced Natural Hygiene lifestyle as
we and many others were…we attended the conventions and were able to hear the doctors speak and
share with many others who had fantastic results raising their children on a pure lifestyle with exercise,
sunshine, fresh air, emotional poise, optimum nutrition, etc.etc.More research on your subjects would be
advisable,
Your experiences paralleled mine exactly. But I worked directly with a colleague of Dr. Shelton here in Escondido California where I live by the name of Dr. Gerald Benish. He lived to his 90's as well. If it hadn't been for losing his wife and the loneliness that followed, he may have lasted to the century mark. I had to force this good man to take money from me at times for my visits, which were just the cost of a styled hair cut at the time. He had a very modest home with large vegetable garden, right outside the window of his office, which was attached to the garage.
I have friend who's mother went to him 35 years ago with an illness that her doctors told her was going to take here life within six months. She did a 45 day fast under Dr. Benish's supervision and she is still alive today.
A humble man who could look into your eyes and tell you if you had pneumonia in a particular lung 30 years prior. He told my mother her hearing was bad in one of her ears by looking in her eyes as well, she was amazed. Just a wonderful man who epitomized the term Doctor.

Good info. I have personally experienced the limitations and problems with natural hygiene practitioners. The premise seems to work for them personally (some of the oldest healthcare practitioners are natural hygiegenists) but there are major shortcomings with this approach. The main one is the oversimplification of very complex bodily processes and that can mean wasting valuable time at best and dangerous outcomes in the worst scenarios.

This fire primer is meant for decision makers concerned about forest fires in the American West. Using best science, we address seven fundamental questions related to the ecological importance of large fires and their appropriate management on public lands. Specifically, we examine: (1) what works best for reducing fire risks to homes and firefighters; (2) are large wildland fires an ecological catastrophe as claimed; (3) are fires increasing from historical levels; (4) does forest thinning reduce fire intensity or lower large fire occurrence; (5) how does post-fire logging affect forest rejuvenation and reburn intensity; (6) do insect outbreaks increase fire occurrence or intensity; and (7) how is climate change affecting fire behavior in the West?
The findings presented in this primer are based on hundreds of studies of forest fires in the American West and elsewhere as presented in "The Ecological Importance of Mixed-Severity Fires: Nature's Phoenix" published by Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services. This primer is particularly timely given the recent passage of HR 2647 in the House and interest in the Senate on fire legislation. The primer is based on best available science on ways for communities to co-exist safely with fire's ecological role on public lands, given fire is not going away, no matter how hard mangers try to suppress it.
There are proven ways to coexist with fire in the backcountry by focusing on riskreduction measures in the home-ignition zone (within 100–200 feet from homes).
A new forest naturally regenerating after a large fire is as ecologically valuable as an old-growth forest and is resilient to future fires. Post-fire logging, tree planting, and herbicides set back forest renewal, raise fire hazards, and increase the risk of uncharacteristically severe future fires.
Thinning cannot stop large fires burning under severe fire-weather conditions that will increasingly occur as the climate changes in places. Thinned stands must encounter a fire when fuels are at their lowest levels post-treatment (only 5–8% chance) and under average fire-weather. Restoration should focus on priority areas to allow fires to burn safely in the backcountry.
Insect outbreaks do not contribute to large severe fires and may lower future fire intensity as tree densities and tree crowns are actually reduced by outbreaks.
Large fires produce much less carbon dioxide emissions than deforestation and fossil fuel burning, and new forests rapidly begin to sequester carbon, as vegetation grows.
Large and severe fires were always historically prevalent, as they are today, and large severe fires are actually at an historical low and not at a recent surplus.


In the world of bluegrass these days, tradition and innovation are gradually falling into the hands of a younger, very talented generation. Rob Benzing is an outstanding example of why that should happen. He fell in love with the bluegrass sound when he was a kid, listening to and learning from the greats—Don Reno and Earl Scruggs—and was playing the banjo by the time he was ten.
Now he's found his ground, stepping out with a project that demonstrates a full command of the instrument and the wide range of tunes—both classic and progressive-- that go with it. He's assembled a sparkling constellation of fellow artists to showcase his abilities and theirs: Danny Knicely on guitar; Taylor Baker on mandolin; Mark Schatz on bass; fiddler Patrick McAvinue; vocalists/ instrumentalists Jacob and Joey Mosley, Scott Brannon, and Tom Mindte.
Benzing shows his mastery of bluegrass banjo licks in hard-driving classics like Reno tunes Dixie Breakdown, and Sockeye, and Scruggs' Lonesome Road Blues; handily tackles some ?less-than-standard chord progressions in the quirky Armadillo Breakdown; balances meter and melody on The Bells of St Mary's; and shows what a banjo can do in back-up as well as solo in vocal standards No Longer a Sweetheart of Mine, Have You Come to Say Goodbye? and It's Only Right That I Should Pay. He comfortably finds a modal groove to underscore the lyrics in the melancholy Lonesome River and Jacob Mosley's haunting Carry Me. But that's not all--Benzing has included two of his own compositions, to excellent effect: Monocacy Crossing flows across the frets from low to high with echoes of swing; Fingerboard Road, as the name suggests, is fast, light and deft, producing a sound both inventive and as old as the hills.
Benzing hails from Maryland and travels all around to traditional music gatherings, clubs and festivals where he is fast gaining a reputation as a banjo adept who can hang in with a new tune and give it that good old feeling, or add a new twist to a familiar classic. On this CD he has concocted a rich musical sampling: a little bit of Reno, a little bit of Scruggs, and a whole lot of Benzing.

Morten Wormskiold (16. januar 1783 på Alléenlyst på Frederiksberg – 29. november 1845 på Gavnø) var en dansk botaniker og opdagelsesrejsende. Han indsamlede planter og beskrev dyrelivet i Danmark, Norge, Grønland og Kamtjatka. Han var bror til Ingeborg Christiane Rosenørn. Andre navneformer: Morten Wormskjold, russisk: Мартин (Петрович) Вормскиольд eller Вормскильд.

Opvækst og ungdom
Morten Wormskiold var søn af sekretær, senere konferensråd Peder Wormskiold (1750-1824) og Margrethe M. de Teilman (1757-1837). Han blev født på Alléenlyst på Frederiksberg i en nyadlet familie af embedsmænd i den danske statsadministration. Han modtog privatundervisning og tog juraeksamen i 1805. Herefter studerede han botanik ved professor J. W. Hornemann på Københavns Universitet.

I 1806 ledsagede han Hornemann sammen med den norskfødte botaniker Christen Smith og blomstermaleren og kobberstikkeren Johan Theodor Bayer på indsamling af planter på Sjælland til det store illustrerede værk Flora Danica.

Norge
I 1807 tog de samme fire personer på en botanisk ekspedition til Norge, også for at indsamle planter til Flora Danica. Hornemann var på dette tidspunkt redaktør af værket. De tre danske deltagere blev nødt til at forlade Norge på grund af Napoleonskrigene og der er så vidt vides ikke bevaret nogen plantefund fra rejsen.

Grønland
1812-13 forestod Wormskiold sin egen videnskabelige (botaniske) ekspedition til Grønland. Hans hold bestod af kancellisekretær F.G. Heiliger som botanisk tegner og tjenestekarlen Anders Christensen Frisvad fra godset Nørholm. Rejsen gik via Leith ved Edinburgh. Her måtte Grønlandsskibet Freden vente en måned på tilladelse til at fortsætte rejsen. Wormskiold udnyttede tiden til at følge geologiske forelæsninger af Robert Jameson og Daniel Rutherford. Han stiftede også bekendtskab med den berejste skotske officer Ninian Imrie og med Thomas Allan, som havde købt et parti mineraler, som Karl Ludwig Giesecke havde sendt hjem fra Grønland, men som var blevet beslaglagt af den engelske flåde. Under opholdet I Grønland opholdt han sig i kolonien Godthåb og i omegnen af Julianehåb indsamlede ekspeditionen med god hjælp fra den grønlandske befolkning et stort antal bløddyr og planter, som Wormskiold beskrev. På rejsen frem og tilbage foretog Wormskjold systematiske målinger af luft- og havtemperaturer. Hans iagttagelser blev formidlet i breve til Hornemann og til forældrene. I 1889 offentliggjorde Eugen Warming Wormskiolds Botaniske Journal fra Grønland. Han havde fundet 157 arter af karplanter, Det mere end fordoblede antallet af kendte karplanter i Grønland. Han havde desuden ved sine hydrologiske og meteorologiske målinger undfanget en teori om, at havet ved Grønland via farvandet nord for Nordamerika stod i forbindelse med Beringshavet.

Rjurik-ekspeditionen og Kamtjatka

Da han i 1815 nåede hjem til København viste der sig en mulighed for at komme med på en verdensomsejling med det russiske ekspeditionsskib Rjurik. Ekspeditionen var finansieret af den tidligere russiske rigskansler, grev Nikolaj Rumjantsev og kaptajn og ekspeditionsleder var Otto von Kotzebue. Wormskiold kom først med på et afbud, som botanisk tegner for den fransk-tyske naturfilosof og digter Adelbert von Chamisso. Da tegneren Louis Choris alligevel kom med, fik Wormskiold af Rumjantsev lov at deltage helt uden formelle forpligtelser. Han fik kosten frit, men afholdt selv alle sine omkostninger: Han fik herudover 400 rigsbankdaler med til at købe naturalier til et kommende naturhistorisk museum. I København påmønstrede desuden en dansk-bengalsk skibskok (navnet i de russiske kilder skrevet Safajlo Madejev). Allerede tidligt efter afrejsen fra København opstod der gnidninger mellem Morten Wormskiold og kaptajn Kotzebue og den baltertyske læge og zoolog Johann Friedrich von Eschscholtz. Stridens kerne var Wormskiolds stilling i forhold til ekspeditionen. Kaptajn Kotzebue bestred hans ret til at gøre videnskabelige observationer uden at resultaterne tilfaldt ekspeditionen. Kernen i denne strid var Wormskiolds hydrografiske målinger, som Kotzebue ønskede at få del i. Desuden ønskede Kotzebue ikke, at Wormskiold opkøbte genstande til det danske museum. Efter afrejsen fra Concepción i Chile kulminerede striden ved at Kotzebue fratog ham retten til at foretage målinger. Da Rjurik den 19. juni 1816 ankom til Petropavlovsk på Kamtjatka, blev Wormskiold af Kotzebue efterladt her i den stedlige kommandants varetægt.

Hjemrejsen med Vasilij Golovnin
Der gik næsten to år, inden det lykkedes ham at få skibslejlighed hjem. I denne tid foretog han omfattende indsamlinger af planter og dyr, som han beskrev på latin. Han fortsatte også sine målinger af temperatur- og vejrforhold. Hjemrejsen var ombord på det russiske militære ekspeditionsskib, fregatten Kamtjatka under ledelse af kaptajn Vasilij Golovnin. Undervejs besøgte han øgruppen Aleuterne og Kodiak. Her konstaterede han, at befolkningens sprog var beslægtet med grønlandsk. Ekspeditionen gjorde ligeledes ophold på Hawaii og i den russiske handelspost Fort Ross i Californien.

Årene efter ekspeditionerne
Han kom hjem i september 1819 og medbragte omfattende samlinger af naturalier og naturhistoriske optegnelser. Herunder ikke mindst omfattense målinger af jordens havstrømme. Oplevelserne undervejs fik dog Wormskiold til at vende forskerverdenen ryggen. Han publicerede ingen af sine resultater. Hans omfattende samlinger var opbevaret dels på godset Ristrup, som hans mor ejede. Da hun døde i 1830, flyttede han samlingerne til et interimistisk opbevaringssted på gården Pedersminde i Trige Sogn i Østjylland. Her brændte samlingerne i 1842. 55 (brandskadede) sider optegnelser blev reddet for eftertiden, mens næsten alle specimena, som stadig var i hans eje, gik tabt ved branden sammen med de værdifulde dagbøger og optegnelser. Nogle af hans plantefund findes dog bevaret på Botanisk Museum i København, på Oslo Universitet og enkelte andre steder.
Efter hjemkomsten brugte Wormskiold sin tid på at vandre til fods rundt I landet, hvor han besøgte familie og venner og gik på jagt. Privat foretog han omfattende studier af især oldtidens historie, mytologi ja endog atomfysik, i sin søgen efter de store sammenhænge i verden. Han publicerede dog ikke noget efter hjemkomsten. Han døde på Gavnø og er begravet ved den nærliggende Vejlø Kirke.

Hædersbevisninger
Han blev som Danmarks første videnskabelige jordomsejler udnævnt til Ridder af Dannebrog. Grønalgen Urospora wormskioldii (Mart i Hornem.) Rosenv., blomsterplantearten Wormskioldia Thonn. (Turneraceae) og adskillige andre arter bærer hans navn, f.eks. Trifolium wormskioldii og Veronica wormskjoldii.

MANCHESTER CITY have hired video analyst Piet Cremers after he impressed during an 18-month spell with partner club NAC Breda.
Cremers, who is only 22, joined the Dutch club after working at Brentford for a year.
This is where he learnt a lot about expected goals - first under Head of Performance Analysis Neil McIlhargey and then his successor Luke Stopforth. Indeed, Cremers is part of a new generation of video analysts who incorporate advanced statistical analysis into their work.
Interestingly, in an interview in July 2016, he said that Manchester City were "not yet that far with" the expected goals model. This was when the Blues had been under the charge of Roberto Mancini and then Manuel Pellegrini as manager.
Cremers explained: "We not only analyse the match footage, but we can work with the players on a daily basis.
"At NAC we work according to the expected goals model. That is a probability calculation program. By means of knowledge sharing, both clubs make each other stronger."
Cremers was taken to Brentford by head coach Marinus Dijkhuizen, with whom he had worked as a performance analyst at Excelsior in Holland.

Held in MC2066, on 2010-06-22, at 04:30 PM.
Number theory was thought to be mathematically appealing but practically useless until the RSA encryption algorithm demonstrated its considerable utility. I'll outline how combinatory logic (dating back to 1920) has a similarly unexpected application to efficient and effective compilation, which directly catalyzed the development of lazy functional programming languages such as Haskell. The talk is self-contained; no prior knowledge of functional programming is necessary.

AMSTERDAM IN 2019 – The ultimate destination
Amsterdam has more identities than there are cardinal directions. In every corner of the city, as well as in its vibrant centre, you stumble upon different sights, different people and different accents. Join us on a dynamic trip through Amsterdam's diverse biotopes.
TEXT: ARNE ADRIAENSSENS | PHOTO © NBTC
Few city centres are as iconic as Amsterdam's. With picturesque canals and streams wherever you look, just strolling alongside the water is a feast for the eyes. Yet, there is way more to explore than just the facades of the iconic canal houses.
In the heart of the city, where you would least expect it, is the immense Royal Palace of Amsterdam. Art lovers might rather head to the Van Gogh Museum, where you can gaze at the work of the Netherlands' most celebrated artist up close. Don't miss De Wallen, the city's world-famous red-light district, either. Although most of the businesses you pass here are still up and running, the streets are a first-class tourist hotspot today. The city centre also counts a lot of hidden secrets — peak behind every corner and you could stumble upon something great and unexpected.
Rijksmuseum, South.
Mingle with locals
If you follow the water, you might end up in De Jordaan, Amsterdam's most authentic and folkloristic neighbourhood. Although many a tourist knows the way to this district, it has never lost its authentic vibe. Go on a shopping spree with the locals in De Negen Straatjes (The Nine Streets) or the Noordermarkt (the Northern Market) or mingle with the locals at one of the many traditional pubs. In between De Jordaan and the city centre, you can also visit the city's most impressive museum: the Anne Frank House.
Vondelpark, South.
Further west, you enter an Amsterdam full of culture, gastronomy and young blood. In and around the Westergas cultural centre, there is always something to explore. Many a festival strikes down here and so do food happenings and fairs of all sorts. However crowded the cultural centre and its surroundings might get sometimes, tranquillity is never far away in the green oasis of the nearby Westerpark.

To experience Amsterdam in its purest form, the best places to go are the northern and eastern edge of the city. Here, tourists are a rare breed, making them the ideal neighbourhoods to live like a local. With its green villages, multicultural streets, experimental festivals and stunning waterside terraces, there is plenty to experience for those trying to avoid the obvious paths and tourist traps.

More southwards, you enter the lushest part of the city. Here, wide avenues and monumental mansions connect the Rijksmuseum, the Vondelpark and the Concertgebouw with each other.

For Scotland's Largest Law Firm, BlackBerry UEM and Android Enterprise Are the Right Choice
VIEW AS PDF See all Success Stories
As Scotland's largest law firm, Brodies LLP employs more than 680 people between its offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, and Dingwall. Brodies offers legal advice to private and public sector clients both in the UK and internationally in its core business areas of corporate and commercial; energy (both renewables and oil & gas); property; litigation; banking and financial services; employment, pensions and benefits; and trust and tax. The firm has a long history of going above and beyond for its clients, and has received many awards, including being named "Who's Who Legal Scotland Law Firm of the Year" for the eighth consecutive year.
"Our lawyers need to be available around the clock, able to work whenever and wherever they happen to be," explains Damien Behan, IT Director at Brodies. "The strategy from a communications perspective was simple – to make it as easy as possible for them to do so securely, with the flexibility to connect in a way that best suits them."
In achieving this, Brodies had several core requirements:
It must keep a full file of all correspondence and documents related to each case and client
That file must be readily accessible at all times
All client data must be treated with the utmost care – Brodies must be able to assure the confidentiality and integrity of privileged information no matter where it goes
To meet these needs, Brodies implemented BlackBerry over a decade ago. In recent years the firm has augmented this investment with business apps that help to put information at the fingertips of its lawyers, including extending the use of its iManage Document Management System to its mobile devices.
Recently, Behan and his colleagues faced new demands from their users. The firm's lawyers wanted greater functionality from their smartphones. Access to a wider range of apps, and access to newer devices and device types.
It was time to upgrade.
For Brodies, transitioning to BlackBerry® UEM was an obvious next step in its journey. A platform that delivers complete endpoint management and policy control for a diverse fleet of devices and applications, UEM would allow the firm to manage any devices it chose – both now and in the future.
On the device side, Brodies deployed a fleet of Corporate-Owned, Personally-Enabled (COPE) BlackBerry smartphones running Android™ Enterprise, which enables easy separation of work and personal data. This is designed to complement native Android security.
The firm also used BlackBerry UEM to deploy a small fleet of firm-owned iPads as well as enabling personally owned iPads to connect securely to its systems. To assist it with the transition and deployment, Brodies turned to Appurity. As a BlackBerry Platinum Enterprise Partner and Managed Mobility Partner, Appurity has worked closely with BlackBerry for nearly a decade. The organisation's wide range of services combined with its deep knowledge of BlackBerry's portfolio enable it to provide a level of support few other vendors can match.
"We have a strong relationship with the folks at Appurity," says Behan. "They're very knowledgeable about the BlackBerry technology suite, and extremely helpful. They're also quite agile, nimble, and quick to respond whenever we've a question or concern. They've proven integral in terms of supporting our BlackBerry estate."
Through managed Google Play on BlackBerry UEM, the firm can securely deploy a wide range of apps to user devices. This includes the Appurity-developed Rubus™, which provides an Android client for iManage equipped with features such as send and file and open NRL for opening links to documents in the DMS. Lawyers can also make quick edits to legal documents and files through BlackBerry® Docs to Go®.
"Since implementing BlackBerry UEM, we've really been building out the corporate apps that we use," says Behan. "As more suppliers produce apps for Android, our opportunities will only increase."
If you are involved in technology and security, it's really a comfort factor knowing that the BlackBerry platform is tried and tested. BlackBerry's approach to Android is the most secure on the market.
Damien Behan, IT Director, Brodies LLP
Greater User Enablement: Equipped with BlackBerry UEM managed Android devices, lawyers now have more freedom than ever. They no longer need to be in the office or to login to a laptop to respond to client queries. Furthermore, secure access to the firm's intranet ensures they can more effectively leverage downtime.
Intapp Time, for example, allows lawyers to either fill out their timesheets electronically or automatically capture their work hours. This could include time spent on the phone with a client, meeting about a case, or working on a case while on vacation.
Flexible Endpoint Management: "We've always tried to standardise our device fleet, so we don't have to worry about things getting too complex," explains Behan. "Some people like to keep work completely separate from their personal devices, while others only want to carry a single smartphone. BlackBerry UEM allows us to support both user groups."
Going Paperless: "Instead of having to turn up to court with an armful of folders, a lawyer can bring an iPad for secure access to all the information they need, both fully searchable and fully accessible," explains Behan. "The ability to use that device for connecting back to the office during a case is also very helpful."
On Android, thanks to Appurity's Rubus smartphone connector, lawyers have full access to iManage's document management system while on the move. This allows them to access and send files from virtually anywhere. What's more, with Docs to Go, they can edit those documents from their device.
"If you're in a meeting with a client and they ask you about a particular document, the ability to directly access the latest version of that document is invaluable," Behan continues. "It's been a great advantage for our lawyers. They can be halfway up a mountain and still have access."
Intuitive Device Management: "The UEM platform gives us a single pane of glass to manage our entire estate of devices," Behan explains. "It allows us to apply containerisation to personal devices to keep our data secure, and to mitigate the risk of losing a device."
The Android Ecosystem: "Android allows us to use consumer apps when they're sensible, while Android Enterprise connects everything back to our network in a secure way," says Behan. "We don't have to open unnecessary channels into our network. From a security perspective, it's comforting to know we can provide access without having to punch holes in our firewall."
Convenient Security: "The easier we can make things for our users, the better," says Behan. "With BlackBerry UEM, we keep both sides happy. The users have an easy, intuitive way to do what they need to do, and the security is there but it's not in their face. It's a win-win."
"The way UEM allows us to push out apps is seamless for the user," he adds. "They don't have to know anything about it – we just make it available to them."
Easy Regulatory Compliance: The GDPR and its counterpart in the United Kingdom, the Data Protection Act 2018, are now in effect. The combination of BlackBerry UEM with BlackBerry devices powered by Android has allowed Brodies' mobile deployment to easily comply with both regulations. This is thanks to both Android Enterprise's containerisation as well as the strong security controls offered by UEM, which includes the ability to wipe lost or stolen devices.
"Anyone holding any sort of personal data has had work to do for GDPR" explains Behan. "As with any firm holding personal data, we've had to work with our other lines of business to ensure compliance. From the BlackBerry side of things, however, we haven't really had to do very much – BlackBerry UEM already keeps a very clear delineation between work and personal data in our mobile fleet."

Kentucky Men's team hosting Bluegrass Showcase to open season
Kassidy Stumbo
Nov 24, 2020 Updated Nov 25, 2020
After a long eight months, UK's basketball season begins tonight. Fans are more anxious than usual to see their teams take the court following the cancellation of the NCAA Tournament in March because of COVID-19's major landfall in the U.S.
Though the pre-season No. 10 Wildcats originally planned to begin their 2020-21 schedule against Kansas in the annual Champions Classic, the season's delay – also due to COVID – forced contingency plans into action. The Cats are now starting their season with the "Bluegrass Showcase": a three-team bubble at Rupp Arena featuring Richmond and Morehead State. Kentucky's contests will take place in a five-day span (Nov. 25 and 29), ultimately leading into its matchup with the aforementioned Jayhawks on Dec. 1.
The decision to host the bubble with teams from lower-level conferences comes after Kentucky head coach John Calipari emphasized the importance of helping mid-major squads during this strange season.
"We have to make sure that we're taking care of some of the smaller schools," he said on a March Madness 365 podcast with the NCAA's Andy Katz. "[They're] missing out on buy games, [which] could end their program."
A number of teams - including Kentucky - have already seen this grim possibility become reality. In addition to the Cats, Tennessee, Baylor, Ole Miss and Duke are just some of the numerous schools tasked with reconfiguring their upcoming slates due to COVID-19.
For the time being, the Coach Cal's crew still has two games on this week's docket. Here's what Big Blue Nation can expect from its opponents:
Morehead State
The Wildcats are 10-0 all-time in matchups with the in-state Eagles, beating them 92-67 in their last meeting at Rupp Arena in 2017. Morehead State finished 13-9 (7-11 OVC) last year, winning only two home games along the way.
The Eagles lost their powerful senior guard duo of Jordan Walker and Dijmon Henson, who were the only players to average double figures in 2019. Now-sophomore Tyzhaun Claude, who averaged a team-leading 9.5 points and 6.4 rebounds per game while shooting 59.0% from the field last season, will now hold a leadership role.
Senior forward James Baker Jr. is also expected to step up in 2020-2021. A native of Meade County, Baker Jr. played in all 32 of MSU's games last year. As a junior, he racked up 9.1 points per game along with 4.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks.
The Eagles are led by head coach Preston Spradlin, who is beginning his fourth season in the driver's seat. He served in an interim position for the majority of the 2016-17 season after former Wildcat player Sean Woods resigned from the job due to reports of misconduct.
Spradlin worked with UK for five years as a graduate assistant and assistant director of operations before leaving to become an Eagle assistant coach in 2013.
The Cats will take on Morehead State in their season opener on November 25.
Richmond comes from the Atlantic-10 conference, where it competes with recent Kentucky NCAA Tournament foe Davidson, among others. After ending the 2019-20 season with a record of 24-7, the Spiders were planning to return all five of their starters, but guard Nick Sherod is out for the year because of a torn ACL suffered last month. Though Richmond is not featured in the preseason AP Top 25, it did receive 40 votes.
Junior guard Jacob Gilyard is key to the Spider offense. He averaged 12.7 points per game last year, shooting 46.6% from the field and 36.7% from behind-the-arc. He also led his team in steals, snagging 3.2 per game.
Grant Golden paced the Spiders with 6.9 rebounds per game. The graduate student, who is listed as a forward, was one of 20 players named to the watchlist for the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award, which is given to the nation's best center.
The Spiders are led by head coach Chris Mooney, who is the winningest head coach in the school's history. 2019-2020 was shaping up as one of the program's best; the sixteenth-year head coach's team was looking forward to a potential Cinderella NCAA Tournament run before the season was canceled.
Defense is believed to be the calling card for Richmond this year. The expected performance on that end of the court prompted Andy Katz's to put the Spiders on his list of Final Four "Sleepers" – mid-major teams with the ability to make a surprise Final Four run.
Kentucky will get to see just how talented the Richmond team is when the two round out the bubble on Nov. 29.
**Detroit Mercy**
**The Wildcats' game with Detroit has been postponed due to a positive COVID test from a staff member in the Detroit program. The schools are working to reschedule for later this season.**
The matchup with the Titans is a special one for Coach Cal. His son, former Wildcat Brad Calipari, transferred to Detroit after spending three years with his dad in Lexington. Calipari earned six starts in 2019-2020, leading his team in three-point shooting (38.0 %) and free throw percentage (70.8).
His teammate, junior guard Antoine Davis, has been a beacon of hope for Detroit fans. Over his first two seasons, he scored 1,513 career points, which ranks 13th in school history.
Named the 2018-2019 Horizon League Freshman of the Year, Davis started in all 30 of Detroit's games last season, averaging 24.3 points per game on 32.4% shooting from downtown and 90.1% at the free-throw line. The two-time First-Team All-Horizon League player is the son of Titans head coach Mike Davis.
The elder Davis was appointed to Detroit-Mercy's leading role in 2018. He has been working hard to build the program since that time. Last year, his team finished with eight wins, six of which came in conference play.

Cayo o Gayo Pío Esuvio Tétrico (en latín, Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus), más conocido como Tétrico II, para diferenciarlo de su padre, Tétrico I, emperador del Imperio galo entre 270 y 274.

En 273 fue elevado al rango de césar, con el título de princeps iuventutis, y en enero de 274 ocupó su primer consulado junto con su padre.

Tras la derrota de su padre en otoño de 274, padre e hijo desfilaron en el triunfo celebrado por Aureliano, pero el emperador les perdonó la vida a ambos. Según algunas fuentes, incluso les mantuvo el rango senatorial.

Biografía

Orígenes

Tétrico II era hijo del emperador Tétrico I (r. 271-274) y tenía exactamente el mismo nombre que su padre: Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus. Tanto la fecha de su nacimiento como el nombre de su madre son inciertos. En 273, su padre lo elevó a César para aumentar su legitimidad al trono. Una inscripción de Beterras (actual Béziers) asocia a Tétrico II con el segundo período tribunicio de su padre, trasladando la fecha al 271/272, pero esto puede ser el resultado de un error del grabador. Es posible que su padre también lo haya elevado al rango de coemperador en los últimos días de su reinado, pero esto se discute. La poco fidedigna Historia Augusta dice que Tétrico I crio a su hijo en una fecha no especificada en la biografía de Aureliano, pero ni Aurelio Víctor ni Eutropio citan el supuesto evento.

Nombramientos

En su nombramiento, también fue nombrado Príncipe de la Juventud. El 1 de enero de 274 ingresó en Augusta Treverorum en su primer consulado, que compartió con su padre. Algunas monedas de Tétrico I acuñadas en 274 cuentan con una leyenda que puede aludir a la elevación de Tétrico II, pero dadas las circunstancias del período y otras características presentes en las mismas monedas hoy en día, se cree que pueden haber sido emitidas en un intento para asegurar una alianza con Aureliano al reconocerlo como su igual en lugar de un rival, algo que Carausio haría a fines de siglo para tratar de asegurar la paz con Diocleciano y Maximiano.

Rendición y perdón

A principios de 274, el emperador Aureliano (r. 270-275) marchó al norte de la Galia, al mismo tiempo que su padre conducía sus tropas al sur de Augusta Treverorum para enfrentarse a él. Con la derrota de los galos en la batalla de Châlons en febrero o marzo, Tétrico I y Tétrico II se rindieron. Con la rendición, el Imperio galo se reincorporó al Imperio romano y Aureliano entró triunfante en Roma con muchos carros, veinte elefantes, doscientas fieras (tigres, jirafas, alces, etc.), ochocientos gladiadores y cautivos de varias tribus bárbaras. Fueron emparejados con Zenobia, líder del recién conquistado Imperio de Palmira, pero no los encadenaron, sino que usaron bragas (pantalones galos).

Según Aurelio Víctor, aunque desfiló en el triunfo de Aureliano, Tétrico II fue posteriormente indultado y se le restauró la condición de senador, ocupando varios cargos senatoriales. También se dice que era muy inteligente y que ningún otro senador fue tan estimado como él en su vida.

Is Silver Ready For A Change In Scenery?
* It's Fed rate hike announcement day!
Well, more and more writers caught on to what I found in the Singapore Summit right away and talked about yesterday… And that is that there was no deadline for N. Korea to denuclearize… No wonder Kim was smiling when he left the summit. Did you wonder like I did if the two leaders sat around, Indian style, and sang kumbaya? I make fun of this, and I know that I shouldn't being the adult here, but I just can't help it… That's who I am a real smart-you know what, at heart… And I doubt I'll ever grow out of it!
The currencies lost a little ground on Tuesday, as we draw closer to the Fed Announcement of their latest rate hike to bring short term rates to 2%… Whoopee, Yahoo, out of sight, can you dig it? The U.S. has 2% Fed Funds rate, the U.S. has 2% Fed Funds rate, neener, neener, neener! That's the braggadocio that the U.S. dollar bulls are out singing today… I find this all pretty strange, because 200 Basis Points is not the end-all of high rates in the world! But the dollar bulls would have you believe that to be true!
No, rather the highest rates reside in Russia, S. Africa, Brazil, and India… Looky there, the only member of the BRICS to not be on this list, of countries with higher rates is China… I have an article for you on the BRICS in the FWIW section today… So you won't want to miss that!
Well, Gold closed down $4.50 yesterday, as the price manipulators just couldn't allow the shiny metal to rise above $1,300. I hope you read my thoughts on Gold yesterday and took them to heart… There are war drums pounding in the distant, and those war drums are not signaling a war, but more like a major news announcement that will happen later this summer… Shoot, with my luck, it'll happen while I'm on my summer vacation, which will be the last week of July and first week of August… What pray tell, will you do without me every day for two weeks? HA!
My response is simply, "it's about time"! I recall writing in the old defunct Review & Focus a couple of years ago, that Silver supplies were dwindling and that with the advent of Solar Panels, that Silver could be on its way to higher ground… So, I'm watching, folks… you don't have to worry or think that I'm not!
But I got off course there, sorry… the point was and I thought I made it clear, that these guys calling for peak Gold are heads of big Gold mining companies, who make more money (for themselves) if the price of Gold rises, so why wouldn't they talk about peak Gold? Well, I have another angle on Gold in the FWIW section today, and tomorrow, I'll have a real hum-dinger on Gold… come back tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel!
The U.S. Data Cupboard had the stupid CPI (consumer inflation), yesterday and while there was no more than modest pressure in the consumer price report for May, at monthly gains of 0.2 percent overall and with the core rate also seen up only 0.2 percent. Year-on-year rates were up 3 tenths to 2.8 percent but the core up only 1 tenth at 2.2 percent.
To Recap… The currencies lost some additional ground yesterday, but not much, as we drew nearer to the Fed's rate hike that will be announced this afternoon. More and more writers are picking up the on the fact that I pointed out yesterday regarding the Singapore Summit, that there was NO deadline in N. Korea's denuclearization announcement… But since there wasn't a lot of dollar buying on the Summit's outcome, there wasn't much to be sold later… Gold loses $4.50 on the day, and the price of Oil bounces to the $66 handle.
Or, here's your snippet: "The BRICS are considering an internal gold trading platform, according to Russian officials. When this happens, the global economy will be significantly reshaped, and the West will lose dominance, predicts a precious metal expert.
That's it for today… The first summer league swim meet was last night and all three grandkids are swimmers, of course! And Andrew and Alex are their coaches! I don't go to swim meets any longer, but I wish I had instead of staying home to watch my beloved Cardinals lose to the Padres… UGH! Hot and humid, are the days here as it gets closer to the start of summer. Man! I received some sticker shock last evening, as I went to the grocery store for a week's worth of groceries… The checker told me the amount I owed and showed me the screen, and I about went into shock! I hadn't bought a week's worth of groceries in a while… UGH! The Moody Blues take us to the finish line today with their great song, from the Seventh Sojourn Album… Isn't Life Strange… I couldn't agree more! I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday, and remember to Be Good To Yourself!
