About the only thing we know for sure about Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh is that we don't trust her. We certainly didn't know that she had her own self-published children's book series called "Healthy Holly," for one thing. And the Baltimore Sun has been looking into that publishing deal and finding some shady dealings.
…Making her the highest earning healthy kids book author ever.
Not quite, but we'll get to that.
Whoa. I previously noted here that Baktimore Mayor Catherine Pugh had sold 20,000 copies of her self-published children's book to the U of MD Medical System, on whose board she sits.
Maybe it's just a really great book. But wait, there's more!
The U of MD Medical System bought 100K copies of the Baltimore mayor's children's books, at a cost of $500,000, while she was on the system's board.
But wait, there's more! "Healthy Holly" is very generous with her money.
The U of MD Medical System paid Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh $500K for 100K copies of her Healthy Holly children's book while Pugh was on the system's board.
Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh's book company has given $7,040 in state political contributions since 2015 — including a $5,000 gift to her own campaign.
The mayor did not return messages seeking comment about the contributions Tuesday.
So the University of Maryland Medical System buys 100,000 copies of the mayor's self-published book while she's on the board of directors, and then she dips into the book sales to fund her campaign? While thousands of unsolicited copies sit in a school warehouse? Could a reporter at least see the books?
New story from @BaltimoreBrew on the warehouse where the 8700 Healthy Holly books are located.
FOUND: 8,700 copies of @MayorPugh50's Healthy Holly books.
WHERE: in a @BaltCitySchools warehouse.
Part of Healthy Holly's fitness routine must include running away from scandal.
I clearly do not understand how children's publishing works.


Josiah Idowu-Fearon was born at Kerinye, in Kogi State of Nigeria, West Africa, on the 17 of January 1949. A strong proponent of Muslim-Christian peaceful dialogue.
In April 2015, Idowu-Fearon was appointed as the seventh Secretary General of the Anglican Consultative Council, in London, UK, taking the role in July 2015.
In contrast to such endorsements of Idowu-Fearon's appointment, the official response of the Church of Nigeria was negative. Regarding Idowu-Fearon's assertion that he had "never supported the law in Nigeria that criminalizes the gay community," the official response was that this assertion "clearly indicates that he is not in accord with the theological and doctrinal posture of the Church of Nigeria". Therefore, the official response continued, "his acceptance of the post of ACC General Secretary neither received the approval of the Church of Nigeria, nor does it in any way affect the Church of Nigeria's theological posture on the issues of homosexuality and gay movement." Read the full test of theofficial response.
Idowu-Fearon is married to Comfort Amina; they had two sons, Ibrahim and Dauda, and a daughter Ninma. Dauda died at age 24 from Meningitis while a Medical student in Bristol, U.K.
Mrs. Comfort Amina Idowu-Fearon served as Diocesan President, Mothers' Union, Women's Guild & Girls' Guild during Idowu-Fearon's tenure as bishop of Kaduna.
Idowu-Fearon trained briefly as a soldier before he changed to theological training for the priesthood. He describes the change this way. "I came to Christ at the Nigeria Military School, Zaria in my second year (1964)" and two years later (1966) the Lord called "me to be a soldier in His Army." Idowu-Fearon was given a 'sympathetic' discharge by late General Hassan Katsina in Lagos so that he could begin training for the priesthood.
Idowu-Fearon is noted as "a strong intellectual inquirer and student." He has "a higher education than most bishops, both within Africa and throughout the [Anglican Communion]. He groups his overseas undergraduate and graduate study as the four years in the United Kingdom (1976-1981) and the three years in the United States (1990-1993). His studies in Nigeria occurred before 1976 and in the 1980s.
In 1976, Idowu-Fearon went to St. John's College, University of Durham in the UK for an "Honours class in Theology" that included "in-depth course on "Islamic Civilisation". He graduated with a Bachelors in Theology.
After his studies in the United Kingdom, Idowu-Fearon continued his studies in Nigeria with a second master's degree in sociology from Nigeria's Ahmadu Bello UniversityZaria. This was followed with a PhD in Sociology and a Postgraduate Diploma in Education from Ahmadu Bello University. Later, as a bishop, Idowu-Fearon served as a research fellow at the Ahmadu Bello University in the field of "determining the influence of politics and religion on development".
In 1993, Idowu-Fearon received a D.Min. from the Hartford Seminary in Hartford, CT, USA.
In 2002, Idowu-Fearon received masters and doctors degrees in Arabic and Islamic studies with special interest in Christian-Muslim relations from the University of Jordan.
In 1971, Idowu-Fearon was ordained as a priest of the Anglican church and nineteen years later he was made a bishop.
From his ordination to the priesthood in 1971 to 1990 when he was consecrated bishop of the Diocese of Sokoto, Idowu-Fearon worked as the General Secretary for the Evangelical Fellowship of the Anglican Communion for Nigeria, and concurrently held the post of Warden of St. Francis Theological College, Wusasa from 1981 to 1984, when he became the Provost of St. Michael's Cathedral.
In 1990, Idowu-Fearon was consecrated as a bishop of the Diocese of Sokoto where he remained until 1998. During that time, he served as Warden at St Francis of Assisi Theological College in Wusasa and Provost of St. Michael's Cathedral in Kaduna.
After his consecration in 1990, Idowu-Fearon served (1) as a founding member of the Compass Rose Society, (2) as a founding member and one of the first three Presidents of the NIFCON( Network for Interfaith Concerns), (3) as a member of a 13-Member Committee of the Archbishop of Canterbury that looked into the responses to Lambeth Resolution 1:10 of 1998, and on the Committee that produced the Windsor Commission Report of 2003.
Idowu-Fearon was unanimously elected the fourth Bishop of the Diocese of Kaduna in 1998. He remained in that position until he resigned to begin his work as Secretary General of the Anglican Consultative Council in 2015.
As Bishop of Kaduna, Idowu-Fearon co-founded the Centre for the Study of Islam and Christianity. He also served as Director of the Kaduna Anglican Study Centre. and as area leader for the Programme for Christian-Muslim Relations in Africa (PROCMURA).
Beyond his diocese, Idowu-Fearon served as president of the Anglican Network for Inter Faith Concerns (NIFCON) and as a member of NIFCON's Management Group. He also served on the International Anglican Conversations on Human Sexuality appointed by former Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey following the 1998 Lambeth Conference of bishops.
In 2002, Idowu-Fearon was unanimously elected for a seven-year term as the first archbishop of the newly created Ecclesiastical province of Kaduna in Owerri. However, his "closeness to the Muslim community in Nigeria" resulted in his being not elected for a second term.
Idowu-Fearon served on the 2003-04 Lambeth Commission on Communion, "which considered worldwide Anglican unity in response to divisive debates on homosexuality". In 2004, he was selected as a panelist on "an October 2004 public discussion in London, sponsored by the Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion and Public Life, dealing with issues affecting the Anglican Communion." In 2005, he was chosen as a member of the third "Building Bridges" seminar held at Georgetown University in Washington DC.
Idowu-Fearon is an adjunct "Professor of Christian/Muslim Relations" at Wycliffe College of the University of Toronto, Canada.
Idowu-Fearon was installed as a Six Preacher (a preaching priest) on July 26, 2007 by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Revd Rowan Williams, and the Very Revd Robert Willis, the Dean of Canterbury. He previously taught at the cathedral's International Study Centre.
Idowu-Fearon was presented the Cross of St Augustine by Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth Palace in London on June 20, 2013. (The Cross of St. Augustine award is presented to people who have given long and exceptionally distinguished service to the Anglican Communion.) Welby highlighted Idowu-Fearon's "pivotal role in advancing understanding between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria in an effort to stem the cycle of violence and misunderstanding" and his work in the Tony Blair Faith Foundation.
As a bishop in Nigeria, Idowu-Fearon was a proponent of Christian-Muslim dialogue.
An article in the Nigerian newspaper Daily Trust about Idowu-Fearon noted that his ability to combine "dedication to his Christianity with genuine respect for Islam as a religion" made him suitable for his "role of being the midwife of peace and understanding" between Christians and Muslims. The article described Idowu-Fearon as being committed to "bridge-building" and "interfaith dialogue". As such, he is accused of being a "Muslim Bishop by the detractors" and "Mr. Dialogue by admirers".
Idowu-Fearon views his commitment to bridge-building and interfaith dialogue as a call from his Lord. "A Muslim is not someone to hate," he says, "but rather someone to love".
Acting on his bridge-building commitment, Idowu-Fearon co-founded the Centre for the Study of Islam and Christianity at Kaduna.
In 2000, two years after Josiah Idowu-Fearon became bishop of the Diocese of Kaduna, the city and state of Kaduna became "embroiled in communal violence." In the city, "churches, mosques, homes and businesses" were burnt. 80,000 people were made homeless, and hundreds were killed. "Our people are being shot, butchered and roasted", said Bishop Josiah. The violence was primarily "inter-religious" between Muslims and Christians. In this crisis, Bishop Josiah's knowledge of Islam and his years of reaching out to Muslims came into play. The Bishop and Imam Asafa, a local Muslim cleric, 'called on people not just to tolerate each other, but to be prepared to rebuild together" and "announced plans for joint Muslim/Christian projects to rebuild the city".
He was chairman of Bridge Builders Association of Nigeria.
He was a member of the Nigerian Inter-Religious Council, NIREC.
He was Nigeria North Area Committee Chairperson for the Programme for Christian-Muslim Relations in Africa (PROCMURA).
Idowu-Fearon is permanently an Officer of the Order of the Niger.
Idowu-Fearon in an interview for BBC on 9 August 2015 affirmed the Resolution 1.10 adopted by the Lambeth Conference in 1998. Reso 1.10 that affirmed, "in view of the teaching of Scripture we uphold faithfulness in marriage between a man and a woman in life-long union and believe that abstinence is right for those who are not called to marriage." Therefore, he opposes the pro-homosexuality position of some churches in the Anglican Communion. At the same time, he opposes the criminalization of homosexuality done by several African churches, like the Church of Nigeria.
In another interview, Idowu-Fearon said that if Resolution 1.10 were withdrawn, "he would have to resign".

(if I may borrow the phrase made famous by Mr. Rogers!) My first graders are kicking off the school year by meeting my long vowel puppets and building five Long Vowel Neighborhoods. After they meet a puppet, my students spend the next several days "building" houses using words that follow a certain long vowel rule like "silent but bossy E" or "two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking". We generate a list of words on the board then my students write the words on their own paper copy of the house. When the book is complete, they take it home to read with their families. I display my own (dry erase, laminated) house in the classroom in The Long A Neighborhood for future reference. And I must say, it's always a beautiful day in the neighborhood!


Fried okra is a great dish that is easy to make and friendly to those who like it less hot. But, if you like it spicy, the fish sauce dipping sauce is the answer. I like dipping the okra in chili fish sauce, but my father likes it better with just soy sauce. With the soy sauce as a dipping sauce, Fried Okra can be a great option to make this dish vegan.
In the summer when farmers markets are full of people and produce, I love getting the smallest okras. They're tender and easy to fry. They're even better crispy and crunch in your mouth. I love crispy fried okra and can't wait to munch on them. So I have a few while cooking them.
For a vegetarian version, dip the okra in soy sauce instead of chili fish sauce.
It is best to cook this dish last if you are preparing other dishes to retain the crispiness.
When it's time to reheat crispy fried okra (and other fried foods) a toaster oven or oven at low heat will return its crispiness, but a microwave will make it soggy.
Mix all the flours, baking powder and water together. Stir and mix well. Drop the okra in.
Heat up a cup of oil in a wok or frying pan over medium heat. Test the oil with a drop of batter; the batter should puff up right away. Coat each piece of okra with the batter and drop it in the pan. Fry until lightly brown. Remove and drain oil. Serve immediately.
Serve hot with chili fish sauce (below) and rice.


A "Good Fit." It's important that you feel comfortable with your mediator. You don't have to be best friends, but you do need to feel comfortable discussing important personal issues with your mediator. If you interview two mediators and both are equally qualified, go with the one you like more.
Level of Experience. There are many aspects to a mediator's "experience." How many cases has your mediator successfully mediated? Has your mediator taken trainings or received certifications? How recently? Does your mediator participate in the local mediation community? To what degree does your mediator keep up on developments in the law and trends in mediation? Experience is important, but it is not necessarily the most important consideration. All great mediators were once brand-new mediators with no experience!
Subject Matter Expertise. Does your mediator have "subject matter" expertise, i.e., expertise with your particular type of dispute? For example, if you need to mediate a trademark dispute would you rather use a mediator with intellectual property experience or with divorce experience? Is it important to you that your mediator has relevant experience before his or her career as mediator? For example, many family mediators are former (or current) family law attorneys. On the other hand, some mediators hold themselves out as general practice mediators and focus more on the communication aspect of mediation and less on the subject matter aspect.
Style of Mediation. Mediation style is an important consideration and should not be overlooked when selecting your mediator. Ask your prospective mediator what style (or styles) of mediation he or she practices.
Other Considerations. Other considerations in choosing a mediator may include the reputation of the mediator, whether the mediator has a legal background or a mental health background, how much they charge, their availability, etc.
There is no single "right" factor when choosing a mediator. Someone with lots of expertise in an area who seems like a great fit might have little experience mediating, and that should not necessarily disqualify that mediator. You should call a couple different mediators and spend a few minutes talking to each of them. If you like what you hear, schedule a consultation so you can get a better sense of who you would like to hire.

Makeshift 'university' established at protesters' camp
Written by Cosmic Cowgirl on July 26, 2019
MAUNAKEA — As protesters wait at the base of the Maunakea Access Road each day, a network of volunteers works to ensure their needs are met.
At the nearby Pu'uhonua o Pu'u Huluhulu across from the access road, attendees can receive food, medical attention — and, as of this week, even education.
With an estimated 1,000 protesters visiting the protest site every day, there are people of all walks of life in attendance, including dozens of teachers and professors.
Via: West Hawaii Today
One of those, Presley Ke'alaanuhea Ah Mook Sang, decided to use her expertise and those of her fellows to form a makeshift university, the Pu'uhuluhulu University, whose slogan proclaims it "an actual place of Native Hawaiian learning."
Ah Mook Sang, an instructor of Hawaiian language at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, said she wanted to use the wealth of knowledge available on the mauna to better educate the protesters — who call themselves kia'i, or protectors of the mountain — about Native Hawaiian culture.
Each day, 20 lessons are prepared for anybody to attend, with the day's schedule written on a sign outside the "university," which is itself just a few simple tents within a clearing. Five hourlong classes are presented at four times a day, with each one attracting at least a dozen students Tuesday morning.
Ah Mook Sang — who is semi-jokingly called "the chancellor" of the Pu'uhuluhulu University, although she said she never chose that title — said she prepares the lesson plans herself the night before based on the schedules of the teachers and their preferred subjects. Lessons on Tuesday included several on language, one on Hawaiian lomi lomi massage, one on "mahu ahia" and more.
"And if someone doesn't show up, then I'll come in and do something myself about Hawaiian language," Ah Mook Sang said.
Initially, Ah Mook Sang said she relied on her personal network of contacts to put together Sunday's lesson plan. But by Tuesday, she had accumulated "lists and lists" of possible teachers who would be willing to present a lesson, including several of the kupuna who were the focal point of the protest's early days.
"As the space evolved up here, we realized we might be here for a while," said teacher Kahele Dukelow, who, like Ah Mook Sang, arrived at the protest space the Saturday before the state closed the Maunakea Access Road. "So we envisioned a place where we could continue to teach people while they stay here."
"As soon as I came in on Sunday, they put me right to work," laughed Laiana Kanoa-Wong, a Hawaiian cultural specialist at Kamehameha Schools who taught a lesson on Hawaiian holidays Tuesday.
Dukelow said she hopes to teach a lesson every other day until the school year begins in mid-August. After that, Dukelow said she is unsure what she will do — she teaches Hawaiian studies and Hawaiian language at UH-Maui.
Lessons will continue every day, weather permitting — inclement weather canceled lessons Monday — and will be open to all, adults and keiki alike, Ah Mook Sang said. Even those not on the mauna will be able to attend, as many of the lessons will be livestreamed.

Throughout its history, Fulham have played in all four divisions of English football and have never won a major trophy, although they were very close in 2010 when they lost the Europa League Final to Athletico Madrid after extra-time. Here are some of the highlights:
Championship Winners (second level): 2000/01
FA Cup Runners-up: 1975
UEFA Europa League Runners-up: 2010
Premier League best finish (7th): 2008/09
Scott Parker was born in Lambeth in London, only a few miles from Fulham. He started his football career as a player, playing for Charlton Athletic and went on to play for Chelsea, Newcastle United, West Ham and Spurs before moving to Fulham. He represented England in the under 16, under 18 and under 21 teams before graduating to the national team and earning 18 international caps. Parker retired from playing in 2017 and returned to Tottenham Hotspur to coach the under-18 team.
Parker was appointed as a caretaker manager in 2019 following the departure of Claudio Ranieri. He signed a two-year contract as manager and led the team to fourth place in the Championship and on to promotion to the Premier League following a victory over Brentford in the play-off Final.
The Fulham manager is not the only influence on the Fulham squad. Here are two players to watch out for in the Premier League this season:
Aleksandar Mitrovic
The Serbian striker was the top scorer in the Championship in the season that led to Fulham's promotion to the Premier League with 26 goals. He was the most prolific player in the league with 26 goals and three assists.
Mitrovic is Fulham manager Scott Parker's first-choice penalty taker, netting from the spot on 5 occasions last season.
Joe Bryan
The English left-back helped Fulham keep 17 clean sheets last season. As well as being part of a solid back four, Bryan scored both of his side's goals in Fulham's win in the Championship play-off final. The defender was involved in 10 goals throughout the season and made more attempts on goal than the rest of the back four combined.

Your prediction is highly likely to be true.
It's obvious now that they are going to finish not higher than 18-th. But Liverpool MUST take Fulham quite seriously.
In my opinion Fulham fight against relegation, it will be a hard work for them. Don't conceding goals it will be very important, if I could recommend brazilians defensive:
Manoel - Cruzeiro
Lucas Romero - Cruzeiro
Gustavo Blanco - Atlético Mineiro
Henrique - Corinthians

North Carolina boy whacks alleged robber with machete; injured suspect arrested after manhunt

North Carolina boy whacks alleged robber with machete; injured suspect arrested after manhunt originally appeared on abcnews.go.com
An 11-year-old boy, who was home alone when three people broke into his family's North Carolina residence, turned the tables on the alleged criminals when he grabbed a machete and whacked one of them in the head, officials said.
Braydon Smith said he knew he didn't have time to think or be afraid.
"I grabbed my machete off my wall and went to hit him," he said in an exclusive interview with ABC station WTVD in Durham, North Carolina. "I knew I had to act in the heat of the moment."
But now the boy's family is demanding answers from the Orange County Sheriff's Office about how the alleged home invader slipped out of their grasp when he walked away from a hospital after being treated for injuries caused in the confrontation with Braydon, whom authorities described as a local youth baseball star and a "very tough kid."
"It was infuriating," Braydon's mother, Kaitlin Johnson, told WTVD. "This guy could have killed my child."
The suspect, Jataveon Dashawn Hall, 19, was arrested just after 1 p.m. on Sunday in Burlington, North Carolina, more than 40 hours after he was spotted on surveillance video walking out of the University of North Carolina Medical Center in Chapel Hill with his head heavily bandaged and wearing a hospital gown, authorities said.
The terrifying ordeal occurred Friday around 11 a.m. local time, when Braydon was alone in his home in Mebane, North Carolina, about 20 miles northwest of Chapel Hill.
Johnson, who lives in another state, was on the phone with her son when someone knocked on the front door of the Mebane house. Johnson told WTVD that she heard one of the intruders say the house was empty.
Sheriff's officials said that when the alleged robbers entered the house they discovered Braydon alone. Hall allegedly picked up a pellet gun he found in the house, took Braydon's phone and forced the boy into a bedroom closet before he and his accomplices allegedly proceeded to ransack the residence, according to a statement released by the sheriff's office.
"The juvenile, who is a star baseball player on several area teams, left the closet and was able to gain access to a machete. He entered the living room behind the intruder, swung the machete, and struck the man in the back of the head," the statement reads.
Braydon told WTVD he knew the pellet gun Hall took wasn't loaded, and so he did what his father had taught him to do if an intruder ever broke into their home: "If they come in the door, you let them have it."
Hall responded by kicking the boy in the stomach and knocking him against a couch, authorities said. But Braydon quickly scrambled to his feet and charged after Hall again, swinging the machete but missing.
"The intruder then kicked the child in the side of the head and turned to grab several items, including a television and a PlayStation. At this point, the intruder realized he was bleeding significantly from the machete strike. He dropped the electronics, exited the residence and all three suspects fled the home," according to the sheriff's office.
Braydon's mother said she managed to hear about 12 minutes of the confrontation on her phone, then called a relative in North Carolina, who in turn called 911.
"It was horrifying. There's no other way to put it," she told WTVD. "I didn't know that he [Braydon] would be OK."
Sheriff's deputies raced to the home and found Braydon safe. They quickly put out an all-points bulletin and alerted local hospitals to be on the lookout for the wounded suspect.
"Not only did this youngster thwart the larceny attempt, he created blood evidence that very well may lead to a conviction in this case," Sheriff Charles Blackwood told reporters on Friday before Hall escaped. "This is a very tough kid who kept his wits about him. At the same time, I want to reflect that this youngster, his family, and indeed this community, are very lucky this event did not have a tragic ending for the child."
In the interview with WTVD, Braydon shared a message to the alleged burglars: "You shouldn't have done what you've done, and you're better off to get a job than breaking into other people's house."
Hall showed up at the UNC Hospital in Hillsborough about 1 p.m. on Friday. Hospital staff treated him for a gash on the back of his head and alerted the sheriff's office, hospital spokesman Phil Bridges said in a statement.
When Hall's condition worsened, he was transferred to the UNC Medical Center in Chapel Hill for further treatment.
"This patient was admitted to the ED [Emergency Department], but was in the legal custody of the Orange County Sheriff's Department which did not place an officer with him," Bridges said. "In similar situations, hospital staff will often alert law enforcement personnel when a suspect patient is discharged, but they remain the legal responsibility of law enforcement.
"It is the responsibility of law enforcement to closely monitor the status of suspects in their custody while those patients are receiving medical treatment," Bridges added. "UNC Hospitals personnel are working with the Sheriff's Department to offer them assistance in this matter."
The sheriff's office said in a statement on Sunday prior to Hall's arrest that it notified the hospital police to alert them prior to discharging Hall. Deputies planned to "pick Hall up and take him before a magistrate where warrants would be served," according to the sheriff's department statement.
But Hall allegedly walked out of the hospital at 8:23 p.m., and vanished.
Sheriff Blackwood said in a statement on Sunday that his agency wasn't notified that Hall left the hospital until 6:26 a.m. on Saturday. He said a nurse wrote on Hall's medical chart that he left the hospital against medical advice, but apparently never told hospital police.
Blackwood said Hall, according to a hospital police officer, told the nurse he "needed to leave because the police were going to be looking for him."
"I am concerned about the amount of misinformation I am reading regarding this case," Blackwell said in his statement. "First of all, Jataveon Hall was never in the custody of our office."
He said that when his agency was initially alerted that Hall was at the Hillsborough hospital, no warrant had been issued for him at that time.
"Hall was only a suspect and there was no legal authority to hold him in custody," Blackwell said.
Later Friday, a magistrate issued multiple warrants stemming from the break-in, charging Hall with breaking and entering, second-degree kidnapping, interfering with emergency communications, and assault on a child younger than 12.
The other two suspects have not been arrested, and investigators are trying to identify them.
Braydon's aunt, Ashley Matthews, told WTVD that no one seems to be taking responsibility for Hall's escape.
"Who is responsible for allowing this criminal to walk out of UNC Hospital?" Matthews said. "We want to know who it is, and we want somebody to take responsibility."
Chief Deputy Jamison Sykes defended his agency, echoing Sheriff Blackwood's statement that the agency was never told Hall left the hospital until hours after he departed.
"Our agency is very concerned about the events in this case. Effective immediately, we will institute policy changes necessary to protect the public in situations like this," Sykes said in a statement. "We expected to be notified prior to Hall's discharge. When Hall left the hospital Friday evening against medical advice, we certainly should have been notified. But most concerning of all is that hospital police did not even know Hall had left the premises almost ten hours prior. Indeed,
Hall's absence was only discovered when we placed a phone call to them."

Mercury damages the nervous system by blocking selenium's numerous biochemical functions
- and that increases the need for selenium
Selenium is necessary for ensuring proper functioning of around 25 different enzymes – also known as selenoproteins – that are essential for energy turnover, metabolism, immune defense, fertility, and for antioxidant protection to help prevent cells and DNA from being damaged by oxidative stress. Selenium is also a so-called mercury antagonist that works by attaching itself to mercury, thereby preventing mercury's harmful impact on the brain and nervous system. Once selenium has attached to mercury, however, it is no longer available to carry out all of its essential functions in the body. Because we are all exposed to mercury in some degree, this may cause a relative selenium deficiency that leaves our brain and nervous system particularly vulnerable to oxidative damage. In a new review article based on published research, Professor Nicholas V.C. Ralston and Dr. Laura J. Raymond explain why the toxic damage to the brain and nervous system is primarily a result of mercury's inhibiting impact on the selenium metabolism. Selenium deficiencies are rather common, and mercury poisoning is an insidious problem, so the combination of these two problems deserves a lot more attention.
Mercury is a silvery liquid metal that produces several inorganic and organic compounds, which are toxic to humans. Everyone is exposed to mercury, which occurs in many different sources in the environment. The human fetus is particularly sensitive to this heavy metal. According to an EU report, mercury poisoning is a problem that costs Danish taxpayers close to DKr 750 million annually, mainly due to the expenses related to lowered IQ. What we see here, however, is just the tip of the iceberg, because mercury poisoning can cause a number of other symptoms. Therefore, it is essential to limit our exposure to this toxic metal. We must also focus on getting enough selenium, which offers protection against mercury. According to Professor Nicholas V.C. Ralston and Dr. Laura J. Raymond, the body's selenium status is determining for the toxicity of mercury, and this has been strongly underestimated in numerous studies.
Mercury sources
Fossil fuels (especially coal)
Fish (especially predatory fish like tuna, hallibut, and shark)
Incineration plants, crematories, and church yards
Gold extraction
Amalgam fillings and wastewater from dental clinics
Electric bulbs, thermometers, and other types of measuring equipment
Certain vaccines (thimerosal)
Why is mercury so dangerous?
Mercury is chemically related to sulfur and selenium. Both sulfur and selenium are essential minerals, and our diet provides substantially more sulfur than selenium. Sulfurous molecules have an ability to transport mercury into the cells, where it disturbs or blocks many of the essential functions that are handled by selenoproteins.
Mercury can easily pass through the blood-brain-barrier and accumulate in the brain. It can also accumulate in the kidneys, in the thyroid gland, and in other organs that depend on the different selenoproteins. A human fetus is particularly vulnerable because of the rapid cell division and because selenium is essential for the development of the brain and the nervous system.
Moreover, mercury is a free radical source. Free radicals are highly aggressive molecules that can attack our cells. They are also a byproduct of our oxygen turnover, and our immune system even uses free radicals as a weapon in some of its defense mechanisms.
In other words, free radicals are a part of both essential and lethal processes and must therefore be kept on a tight leash, carefully controlled by antioxidants that prevent them from causing damage. Oxidative stress only occurs when the fine balance between free radicals and antioxidants is disturbed. Oxidative stress is the invisible enemy that eventually causes disease and deterioration.
Why our brain is particularly sensitive to mercury and oxidative stress
The human brain has an enormous energy turnover that is a result of handling millions of nerve transmissions. The brain alone consumes around 20 percent of the oxygen we breathe, so it automatically produces a large quantity of free radicals as a byproduct. The massive blood supply to the brain also harbors quite a lot of iron, which generates free radicals. Finally, mercury – as mentioned earlier – also generate cascades of free radicals.
The brain consists of approximately 60 percent fat. One of the most harmful effects of free radicals is when they attack polyunsaturated fatty acids in the cell membranes. This sets off a chain reaction that spreads from one cell to another like a bushfire. The phenomenon is known as lipid peroxidation. Free radicals can also attack and destroy enzymes, DNA, and other cell components, which means that oxidative damage to the brain can lead to structural and functional damage to brain cells and tissue.
Therefore, the brain needs a substantial amount of antioxidants to protect it against free radicals and oxidative stress. Selenium-containing antioxidants such as GPX (glutathione peroxidase 1-6) play a particularly important role that no other antioxidants can replace.
Different forms of mercury are found and accumulated through the food chain
Large quantities of mercury are released from incineration plants, power plants, and gold extraction processes. This produces mercury vapors that spread across borders to all parts of the world.
We breathe mercury, we get it from eating polluted fish, or we get exposed to the heavy metal through amalgam fillings and certain vaccines. Mercury is found in different forms. The oxidation of elemental mercury (Hg) produces water-soluble mercury forms that can spread to the environment when it rains or snows. Vertebrae are not able to take up these water-soluble mercury forms very easily, whereas anaerobe bacteria can methylate them and form methylmercury, which is highly toxic and accumulates through the food chain. Consequently, a fish at the top of the food chain can easily contain a million times more mercury than the water, in which is swims.
Different forms of mercury
Pure mercury (Hg)
Oxidized mercury (Hg+, Hg2+). Water-soluble forms that spread with vapors and rain
Methylmercury (CH3Hg+). Formed by bacteria. Bioaccumulates through the food chain.
Selenium is mercury's biochemical target
According to Professor Nicholas V.C. Ralston and Dr. Laura J. Raymond, fish (from oceans and lakes) is the major dietary source of methylmercury. The ratio between mercury and selenium in the fish is determined by its place in the food chain. The more mercury that has accumulated through the food chain, the more selenium binds to the mercury, which reduces the amount of free (unbound) selenium in the fish. The body's selenium reserves are a biochemical target for mercury. Mercury's affinity to selenium is believed to be a million times higher than mercury's affinity to sulfur.
Selenium binds to mercury by forming a compound called mercury selenide, which renders mercury harmless. Selenium therefore has a unique ability to bind mercury, but in doing so, selenium is no longer able to support the different selenium-dependent selenoproteins that are highly important for metabolic processes and protection against oxidative stress.
Eat fish from the lower part of the food chain
From a toxicological point of view, it is always safer to eat fish such as plaice, lemon sole, cod, haddock, hake, Pollock, herring, anchovies, and salmon, all of which belong to the lower part of the food chain, and where the selenium-mercury ratio is favorable.
On the other hand, Professor Ralston and Dr. Raymond say that one should avoid eating fish such as shark, swordfish, tuna, and halibut because this type of fish has an unfavorably balanced content of mercury and selenium. Health authorities generally advise children younger than 14 years and pregnant and/or lactating women to avoid eating predatory fish such as tuna and pike, and they recommend that hey stay away from canned tuna and albacore tuna. Children under the age of three years should not eat tuna at all, as their brains are still developing.
Pregnant woman should eat "safe" fish and stay away of other predatory fish
Although fish is normally considered a good selenium source, it is important to check that there is a favorable balance between mercury and selenium. Pregnant women should pay extra attention. According to Ralston's and Raymond's new review article, it benefits the neurological development of children if their mothers have eaten eat "safe", oily saltwater fish during pregnancy. The reason is that selenium is particularly important for brain development and protection of brain cells. Oily fish such as anchovies, herring, and salmon also provide rich quantities of essential omega-3 fatty acids, which are needed by the brain and nervous system. Pregnant women who choose not to stick with these "safe" fish types risk having babies with poorer health and different neurological disorders, mainly because of getting too little selenium and omega-3.
Danish and English research shows that mercury causes an increased risk of permanent brain damage in 25% of children. The damage impairs their cognitive skills.
Mercury poisoning is often insidious
Mercury can accumulate in different tissues, and there can easily be a delay between the ingestion of a harmful mercury dosage and the onset of the symptoms. A lot depends on how much selenium is in the body to begin with. Signs of mercury toxicity typically occur when the body's selenium stores are empty. Exposure to mercury, especially with too little selenium to counteract it, may cause a number of different symptoms, as shown below. Nonetheless, people are very rarely controlled for mercury poisoning. There is also a risk that the diagnosis is not linked to the actual cause. Any treatment id therefore likely to draw out because the body is still poisoned by mercury.
Typical symptoms of mercury poisoning (where other causes have been excluded)
Tingling sensation in the lips and extremities
Abnormal fatigue
Depression and fear
Poor concentration
Impaired coordination
Impaired vision and deafness
Pain in muscles and joints
Frequent infections and inflammation
Gum infection
Lower IQ (especially if the mother was diagnosed with poisoning during her pregnancy)
Death in the case of lethal doses
Treating acute mercury poisoning with large selenium doses
An otherwise healthy, 15-year-old male athlete, who weighed 70 kilos, was exposed to mercury vapors for several weeks. The patient had heart palpitations, elevated blood pressure, pain in the muscles, stomach, and testicles, insomnia, delusion, hallucinations, trembles, and lack of coordination. He lost 17 kilos, and hospital examinations revealed slightly elevated (23 µg/l) mercury levels that were still below the toxicity limit. The patient was treated with a chelating
drug named DMSA, but his condition continued to get worse.
They started treating him with supplements of selenium (500 µg daily), a therapeutic dosage that is around 10 times above the official recommendation for this micronutrient. The purpose was to saturate selenoprotein P, which functions as carrier in the blood, and to stimulate the synthesis of the GPX antioxidants. After three days, the patient felt substantially better. His heart palpitations stopped, and so did his delusions and stomach pain. Once he started eating a normal diet again, they were able to discharge him from hospital. The patient continued to take the selenium supplement, and after three months, all symptoms had practically vanished, except from the elevated blood pressure. After another two months, both his weight and blood pressure were back to normal, and he was able to resume athletics and football. The patient continued taking the large selenium dosage for eight months, but it did not result in elevated selenium levels in the blood. The selenium therapy simply showed that he still suffered from having too little selenium in the body, and that his body continued to use selenium to detoxify the body after being poisoned with mercury.
Signs of mercury poisoning are more likely to show in someone who lacks selenium
Why selenium deficiencies are so common
European farmland generally has a low selenium content, and there is also the fact that many of us eat very little fish and offal. Most Europeans have a daily selenium intake that is less than half of what experts recommend. Selenoprotein P is a very important selenium-containing protein that is used as a marker of the body's selenium status. It takes around 100 micrograms of selenium daily to saturate selenoprotein P.
More information is needed about selenium's protective effect against mercury
Besides the normal warnings against eating predatory fish, especially aimed at those who are pregnant, we need more official information about how to use selenium to counteract the toxic effect of mercury. This has been known since the 1960s and is shown in mammals, birds, and fish.
Compensating for the reduced selenium intake and reducing mercury toxicity
Selenium supplement are useful as compensation for the low selenium intake but can also be used for mercury detoxification. Organic selenium yeast that contains many different selenium species resembles a balanced diet with many different selenium sources.

Q10 goes by many names
Q10 is known by so many different names that one easily gets confused. Here is a list of the many synonyms for Q10 in its two forms:
Ubiquinone:
◊ Oxidized Q10 ◊ Normal Q10 ◊ CoQ10 ◊ Ubikinon ◊ Ubiquinone ◊ Ubidecarenone ◊ 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinone
Ubiquinol:
◊ Reduced Q10 ◊ Active Q10 ◊ CoQH ◊ Ubikinol ◊ Ubiquinol ◊ QH ◊ QH2 ◊ QX ◊ 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol

Bio-availability and documentation are key points
Studies show that the best bio-availability is obtained when the active compound is dissolved in an oil of some sort and encapsulated in soft, light-protected (light destroys Q10) gelatin. There are many products out there that meet these requirements. However, this is not in any way a guarantee that they are absorbed well. The only way to make sure that a product has good bio-availability and is safe for consumption is to contact the manufacturer and ask for documentation for the following:
- that the product is non-crystalline
Q10 as a raw material consists of crystals which are not easily absorbed in the digestive system. It is therefore vital to transform the Q10 raw material to a homogenous and assimilable form that can ensure good bio-availability in the body. This would require the Q10 to be dispersed in oil, just like it would require the manufacturer to be familiar with the technique and patented method employed to change the Q10 molecules into a non-crystalline form.
- that the product is nature-identical
This entails that the Q10 molecules in the product are completely identical with the Q10 that the human body synthesizes in relatively small quantities. The body is not able to distinguish between nature-identical Q10 and the endogenously synthesized Q10.
