In this randomized double-blinded, parallel-group study (GCP-standard), the efficacy of Arnica D4 10 pillules (taken orally, 3 times per day) and diclofenac sodium, 50 mg (taken orally, 3 times per day) were investigated for equivalence in 88 patients 4 days after hallux valgus surgery. Outcome parameters were (1) postoperative irritation, (2) patient mobility, (3) rated pain, and (4) use of analgesics. The hierarchic equivalence test based on one-sided Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney-U confidence intervals (CIs) was used. Equivalence was perceived, when the lower margin of the 95% CI was > 0.36 corresponding to a range of equivalence of 1/2 standard deviation.
Arnica D4 and diclofenac were equivalent for wound irritation (lower margin of the 95% CI on day 4: 0.4729 for rubor; 0.3674 for swelling; 0.4106 for calor) and patient mobility (0.4726). A descriptive analysis showed the superiority of Arnica D4 with respect to patient mobility (p = 0.045). With respect to pain, Arnica D4 was inferior to diclofenac (lower margin of the 95% CI 0.026). No significant differences were found regarding the use of additional analgesics during the 4 postoperative days (Dipidolor, Janssen-Cilag, Neuss, Germany; p = 0.54; Tramal, Grünenthal, Aachen, Germany; p = 0.1; and Novalgin, AVENTIS-Pharma, Bad Soden, Germany; p = 0.1). Arnica D4 was significantly better tolerated than diclofenac (p = 0.049). Nine (9) patients (20.45%) of the diclofenac group and 2 (4.5%) of the Arnica D4 group reported intolerance. There was no disturbance in wound healing in any of the patients. Arnica D4 is 60% cheaper than diclofenac.
After foot operations, Arnica D4 can be used instead of diclofenac to reduce wound irritation.
joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
. This was a 6-month randomized, cross-over, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-centre study set in a teaching hospital rheumatology out-patient clinic. The participants of the study were 112 patients who had definite or classical RA, were seropositive for rheumatoid factor and were receiving either stable doses of single non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for 3 months or single disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) with or without NSAIDs for 6 months.
Patients who were severely disabled, had taken systemic steroids in the previous 6 months or had withdrawn from DMARD therapy in the previous 12 months were excluded. Two series of medicines were used. One comprised 42 homeopathic medicines used for treating RA in 6cH (10-12) and or 30cH (10-30) dilutions (a total of 59 preparations) manufactured to French National Pharmacopoeia standards, the other comprised identical matching placebos. The main outcome measures were visual analogue scale pain scores, Ritchie articular index, duration of morning stiffness and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR).
. Fifty-eight patients completed the trial. Over 6 months there were significant decreases (P<0.01 by Wilcoxon rank sum tests) in their mean pain scores (fell 18%), articular indices (fell 24%) and ESRs (fell 11%). Fifty-four patients withdrew before completing the trial. Thirty-one changed conventional medication, 10 had serious intercurrent illness or surgery, 12 failed to attend and three withdrew consent. Placebo and active homeopathy had different effects on pain scores; mean pain scores were significantly lower after 3 months' placebo therapy than 3 months' active therapy (P=0.032 by Wilcoxon rank sum test). Articular index, ESR and morning stiffness were similar with active and placebo homeopathy.
. We found no evidence that active homeopathy improves the symptoms of RA, over 3 months, in patients attending a routine clinic who are stabilized on NSAIDs or DMARDs.
. It seems more important to define if homeopathists can genuinely control patients' symptoms and less relevant to have concerns about whether this is due to a 'genuine' effect or to influencing the placebo response.
. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a homeopathic gel vs an NSAID (piroxicam) gel in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee.
. One hundred and eighty-four out-patients with radiographically confirmed symptomatic osteoarthritis of the knee were entered into a pragmatic, randomized, double-blind controlled trial and treated with 1 g of gel three times daily for 4 weeks. Main outcome measures were pain on walking as a Visual Analogue Score (VAS ) and a single-joint Ritchie index.
. One hundred and seventy-two of the 184 enrolled patients had endpoints for the main outcome parameters. The pain reduction was 16.5 mm VAS in the homeopathy group (n=86) and 8.1 mm in the piroxicam group (n=86); the difference between treatment groups was 8.4 mm (95% confidence interval 0.8–15.9), and after adjustment for pain at baseline it was 6.8 mm (95% confidence interval –0.3 to 13.8). There was no significant difference between treatment groups in the single-joint Ritchie index (P=0.78). Adverse events occurred in 28 patients (12 homeopathy group, 5 withdrawn; 16 piroxicam group, 9 withdrawn); 18 of the events involved a local reaction (7 homeopathy group, 2 withdrawn; 11piroxicam group, 5 withdrawn).
. The homeopathic gel was at least as effective and as well tolerated as the NSAID gel. The presence of a clinically relevant difference between treatment groups cannot be excluded. The homeopathic gel supplemented by simple analgesics if required may provide a useful treatment option for patients with osteoarthritis.
Yes, homeopathy is absolutely safe during pregnancy. Since most of the products out there don't contain any actual molecules from plants, they're considered to be in the category of "energy medicine." Side effects are rare.
While homeopathic products that say "mother tincture" on them (indicated by the symbol Ø) are weaker than most herbal extracts, some might be too strong for pregnancy. I recommend sticking to homeopathic products that are highly diluted and in tablet form. Any dilutions that are 6x or higher (up to 30x, usually) are fine.
Theoretically, homeopathy can't hurt anyone because the ingredients are so diluted. However, we don't know for sure because homeopathic ingredients haven't been studied. So I would say all homeopathic remedies are out.
Is Homeopathy Safe While Pregnant?
Can I take homeopathic remedies while pregnant?
No, you should stay away from homeopathic products while you're pregnant. Although reported side effects of homeopathic medicines are rare, the bottom line is that there is little scientific data to back up the safety of these drugs in pregnant women.
Pregnancy is an interesting and absorbing time for most women, and can also involve a great deal of stress. Many emotional, hormonal, and physical changes take place as the baby grows.
There are homeopathic remedies that can help a woman's body deal with various stresses, and help to maintain its balance as the pregnancy proceeds. Homeopathy is ideal for women in their childbearing years as it is a gentle yet highly effective system of medicine. During pregnancy, some women will choose to live with the discomfort of minor complaints such as morning sickness or heartburn, rather than seek treatment because they are concerned about the possible side effects of orthodox medicines on their unborn child.
Homeopathic medicines are safe for your growing baby because only a minute amount of the active ingredient is used in their preparation. They work by stimulating the body's own healing powers. Good homeopathic treatment prior to conception can prepare you for a healthy pregnancy.
The relative safety of the homeopathic medicines makes them invaluable in pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. "There's nothing safer." says Ananda Zaren, a nurse, midwife, and homeopath in Santa Barbara, California, who has used homeopathic medicines in hundreds of births. Besides being safe, the medicines are quite effective in treating various common problems of pregnancy. Zaren adds, "The medicines help strengthen the woman physically and psychologically." Homeopaths have been known to joke that pregnancy is an excellent time to receive homeopathic care since two people (the mother and the fetus) get a remedy for the price of one. The medicines not only improve the health of the mother, they also benefit the fetus. Although no formal statistical analysis has yet been carried out, homeopaths have commonly observed that the children born from women who have received homeopathic care during pregnancy seem healthier than others. Homeopaths make this conjecture by comparing the children of women from previous pregnancies without homeopathic medicines with the offspring of later pregnancies in which the mothers have received the medicines.
The Swiss government's "Health Technology Assessment" on homeopathic medicine is much more comprehensive than any previous governmental report written on this subject to date. Not only did this report carefully and comprehensively review the body of evidence from randomized double-blind and placebo controlled clinical trials testing homeopathic medicines, they also evaluated the "real world effectiveness" as well as safety and cost-effectiveness. The report also conducted a highly-comprehensive review of the wide body of preclinical research (fundamental physio-chemical research, botanical studies, animal studies, and in vitro studies with human cells).
And still further, this report evaluated systematic reviews and meta-analyses, outcome studies, and epidemiological research. This wide review carefully evaluated the studies conducted, both in terms of quality of design and execution (called "internal validity") and how appropriate each was for the way that homeopathy is commonly practiced (called "external validity"). The subject of external validity is of special importance because some scientists and physicians conduct research on homeopathy with little or no understanding of this type of medicine (some studies tested a homeopathic medicine that is rarely used for the condition tested, while others utilized medicines not commonly indicated for specific patients). When such studies inevitably showed that the homeopathic medicine did not "work," the real and accurate assessment must be that the studies were set up to disprove homeopathy… or simply, the study was an exploratory trial that sought to evaluate the results of a new treatment (exploratory trials of this nature are not meant to prove or disprove the system of homeopathy but only to evaluate that specific treatment for a person with a specific condition).
The Swiss report found a particularly strong body of evidence to support the homeopathic treatment of Upper Respiratory Tract Infections and Respiratory Allergies. The report cited 29 studies in "Upper Respiratory Tract Infections/AllergicReactions," of which 24 studies found a positive result in favor of homeopathy. Further, six out of seven controlled studies that compared homeopathic treatment with conventional medical treatment showed that homeopathy to be more effective than conventional medical interventions (the one other trial found homeopathic treatment to be equivalent to conventional medical treatment). All of these results from homeopathic treatment came without the side effects common to conventional drug treatment. In evaluating only the randomized placebo controlled trials, 12 out of 16 studies showed a positive result in favor of homeopathy.
The authors of the Swiss government's report acknowledge that a part of the overall review of research included one negative review of clinical research in homeopathy (Shang, et al, 2005). However, the authors noted that this review of research has been widely and harshly criticized by both advocates and non-advocates of homeopathy. The Swiss report noted that the Shang team did not even adhere to the QUORUM guidelines which are widely recognized standards for scientific reporting (Linde, Jonas, 2005). The Shang team initially evaluated 110 homeopathic clinical trials and then sought to compare them with a matching 110 conventional medical trials. Shang and his team determined that there were 22 "high quality" homeopathic studies but only nine "high quality" conventional medical studies. Rather than compare these high quality trials (which would have shown a positive result for homeopathy), the Shang team created criteria to ignore a majority of high quality homeopathic studies, thereby trumping up support for their original hypothesis and bias that homeopathic medicines may not be effective (Lüdtke, Rutten, 2008).
The Swiss report also notes that David Sackett, M.D., the Canadian physician who is widely considered to be one of the leading pioneers in "evidence based medicine," has expressed serious concern about those researchers and physicians who consider randomized and double-blind trials as the only means to determine whether a treatment is effective or not. To make this assertion, one would have to acknowledge that virtually all surgical procedures were "unscientific" or "unproven" because so few have undergone randomized double-blind trials.
In my view, for a treatment to be determined to be "effective" or "scientifically proven," a much more comprehensive assessment of what works and doesn't is required. Ultimately, the Swiss government's report on homeopathy represents an evaluation of homeopathy that included an assessment of randomized double blind trials as well as other bodies of evidence, all of which together lead the report to determine that homeopathic medicines are indeed effective.
Statement of correction (9/18/2013): The report on homeopathy (2012) that was described above has now been verified to be a second edition of a report that was initially commissioned by the government of Switzerland, but it was not a report that was issued by the Swiss government nor endorsed by the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health. Therefore, it is my intention here to state clearly that the first publication listed in the "References" section was not commissioned by the Swiss government, but the second reference that was written by most of the same authors as the first reference was commissioned by Swiss government. The conclusions of this publication (2006) are the same as those asserted in more detailed in both book forms, 2005 (ref. Bornhöft G, Matthiessen PM (Eds.). Homöopathie in der Krankenversorgung – Wirksamkeit, Nutzen, Sicherheit und Wirtschaftlichkeit. Frankfurt/M. 2006 VAS Verlag für Akademische Schriften.) and 2012. The conclusions of the commissioned report and the more detailed books are basically the same in the safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of homeopathic medicine.

Experts Dug Up The First Proof Of A Civil War Battle – And It May Just Rewrite The History Books
By Suzi Marsh
In a valley in Worcestershire, England, a team of archaeologists are searching the land for artifacts from days gone by. There, buried beneath the earth, they find something incredible – the first material indication of a legendary battle that took place long ago. Back in the 17th century, the course of history was decided here – and now experts are uncovering the evidence piece by piece.
In the 21st century, the village of Powick sits at the eastern end of the Worcester Southern Link Road, one of the region's busiest thoroughfares. In March 2019 works were initiated in the sleepy community, ultimately with an aim to improving the popular route. But before construction could begin, archaeologists from the local council were permitted to take a closer look at the site.
From the beginning, it must have been a tempting prospect. In the shadow of the battle-scarred Powick Church, the location of the new road had long been associated with the English Civil War. And when the archaeologists began to dig, they discovered a fascinating slice of history hidden beneath the surface.
The seeds of the English Civil War were sewn at the beginning of the 17th century, when King James VI of Scotland ascended to the English throne. Previously, he had enjoyed a relatively free reign of power. But in this new role, he found that that Parliament south of the border was far more eager to impose restrictions.
James apparently believed first and foremost in a king's divine right to rule. And when his son Charles took over the throne, he brought with him a similar set of beliefs. Eschewing the advice of Parliament, the new monarch began his reign with a series of controversial decisions that quickly resulted in impeachment proceedings.
In response, Charles ordered the dissolution of Parliament in the year 1629, deciding instead to rule by his own will. This is a period of history now known as the Eleven Years' Tyranny. But when he attempted to impose new land and religious policies on Ireland and Scotland, the people rebelled.
In an attempt to address the situation, Parliament came together once again in 1640. This put an end to Charles' independent reign. However, the king and his government could not agree on how best to deal with the rebellions rising to the south and west. Ultimately, each side put together their own army in a bid to quell the unrest.
By 1642 the two armies were fighting against each other, and the First English Civil War had begun. For four years the Royalists and the Parliamentarians battled against each other for control, drawing thousands of civilians into the fray. But although Charles was captured in 1646, the conflict was far from over.
Two years later, fighting broke out again between the two sides, resulting in Charles' execution in 1649. By this time, Scotland was staunchly aligned with the Royalist cause and the deceased king's son – Charles II – ultimately inherited a position at the head of the region's troops. Proclaimed King of Great Britain, France and Ireland by his supporters, the young man soon found himself at the center of the Third English Civil War.
In 1650 the Royalists and the Parliamentarians met each other on the battlefield at Dunbar in southeast Scotland. Led by the English general Oliver Cromwell, the government's armies won a decisive victory – but the war raged on. And in January 1651 Charles was crowned King of Scotland, further stoking the conflict with his enemies in the south.
Keen to dispose of the threat once and for all, Cromwell set a trap for Charles and his supporters. In June 1651 he led an army to the Scottish city of Stirling, leaving the path clear for a Royalist invasion of England. And just as the general had planned, the new king gathered his supporters and began to march south into England.
In response, Cromwell ordered the Parliamentarian forces to follow Charles and his army as they marched down England's west coast. And at the same time, he directed two additional groups to relocate, hoping to intercept the invading Royalists. Then, after taking the Scottish city of Perth, he led his own men south to join the fray.
Marching for roughly 20 miles each day, Cromwell's army moved swiftly through Scotland and England, collecting new members along the way. Soon, the four separate groups had converged on Worcester, trapping Charles and the Royalists inside the city. Having been unable to drum up support at the head of an invading Scottish army, the new king had just 16,000 men at his command.
Cromwell, meanwhile, had some 30,000 men, including 20,000 from an elite unit called the New Model Army. And on September 3, 1651, exactly one year after his victory at Dunbar, the general put his plan into action. Approaching Worcester from the east and the south, the Parliamentarians soon forced Charles' men in the direction of the city.
Despite being vastly outnumbered, however, the Royalists put up a good fight. In the south of the city in particular, they held their ground, forcing Cromwell to send more men to deal with these dogged enemies. In doing so, the general left his eastern side vulnerable to an attack from Charles' army.
Watching from the upper reaches of Worcester Cathedral, Charles saw the weak spot in his enemies' assault. Commanding one sortie to strike the Parliamentarians from the northeast, he led his own band of men to the southeast of the city. There, they launched a surprise attack on Cromwell's unsuspecting army.
Despite the initial success of this tactic, however, the Royalists' advantage didn't last for long. Seeing that his troops were in trouble, Cromwell charged eastwards with his men to reinforce the Parliamentarian army. And even though Charles and his followers fought bravely, the numbers of their enemy were ultimately too great.
Pushed back into the city by Cromwell's encroaching army, Charles ultimately escaped under the cover of a cavalry charge. Meanwhile, the Parliamentarians captured Worcester, putting an end to almost a decade of civil war. For the men who had followed the new king south to England, it had been a disastrous engagement.
By the end of the skirmish, some 3,000 Royalist fighters lay dead on the battlefield, with a further 10,000 imprisoned by Cromwell and his men. Meanwhile, the Parliamentarians had suffered a meager 200 losses. For the survivors, life would never be the same again, as they were shipped to Ireland as members of the New Model Army or sent to the new world as slaves.
Meanwhile, Charles fled to Europe, where he lived in exile for the next nine years. In his absence, Cromwell came to wield an extraordinary amount of power over the British Isles, leading some to remember him as a dictator today. And when he died in 1658, the country descended into political chaos.
Eventually, the monarchy was restored and Charles was welcomed back to his father's kingdom with open arms. On May 29, 1660, he was finally crowned King of England, Scotland and Ireland, going on to become one of the most beloved monarchs to ever sit on the British throne. For many of the people, his reign was a return to familiarity after Cromwell's controversial rule.
Meanwhile, the political landscape of Britain would never be the same again. The English Civil War had cemented the notion that a monarch could not reign without parliamentary support, and the revolution of 1688 enshrined this practice in law. Today, the battle between Charles' Cavaliers and Cromwell's Roundheads is remembered as one of the most significant in British history.
Despite the significance of the English Civil War, however, much of the physical evidence of the conflict has been eroded by the passage of time. And while some of the historic battlefields can still be visited today, others are not so easy to identify. In Worcester, for example, the actual site of the decisive skirmish between the Royalists and the Parliamentarians has been a matter of some debate.
In fact, up until recently, archaeologists had failed to uncover a single relic dating from that historic confrontation. And while there was some evidence of fighting – such as structural damage – in the area of Powick village, the exact location of the battlefield had never been located. Then, in 2019 all that changed.
With construction work on the Worcester Southern Link Road looming, archaeologists got to work exploring the site of the final stage. Soon, a dual carriageway would connect the M5 motorway with a busy roundabout at Powick, improving access to the busy thoroughfare. But first, the team sifted through the soil for any evidence of the historic conflict.
Thankfully, the search did not take long. Using a technique known as optically stimulated luminescence, archaeologists were able to study the flood silts that have built up in the region over the years. And ultimately, they managed to pinpoint the layer of soil most likely to hold artifacts from the time of the civil war.
Derek Hurst was one of the consultants involved in the excavations. And in September 2019 he contributed to a statement released by Worcestershire County Council. In his words, "The results from this have enabled us to focus our efforts quite precisely which has meant much time-saving and saving on costs, as well as getting a brilliant archaeological outcome."
Using engineering equipment that was already in place for the construction project, archaeologists were soon able to uncover a number of artifacts dating back to the civil war. Located at the base of a valley, they were covered in layers of sediment that had been deposited by floods over the years. But finally, 368 years since Cromwell defeated Charles at the Battle of Worcester, the land was ready to give up its secrets at last.
Amazingly, the artifacts discovered by archaeologists at Powick in 2019 are one-of-a-kind. The first physical evidence of the Battle of Worcester ever uncovered, they represent a groundbreaking step in our understanding of the final conflict of the civil war. And through them, experts have been able to learn more about the last days of the Royalist cause.
At Powick, archaeologists uncovered a total of 98 items believed to date from the Battle of Worcester. These included everyday items such as belt buckles and the fittings from horse harnesses. However, the team also discovered relics directly related to the fierce fighting that once took place on the site.
One find, for example, was the lid from a powder container, a type of vessel that would once have held gunpowder. And elsewhere, archaeologists discovered musket and pistol shots – some of which had clearly been fired. Altogether, the artifacts painted a fascinating picture of a battle that ultimately won a war.
Most significantly, however, these latest discoveries have led experts to one startling conclusion. For centuries, historians have believed that the main action of the battle had taken place closer to the city of Worcester itself. But now, the location of these artifacts suggests that the skirmish took place further to the south than was previously thought.
Richard Bradley, the project's head archaeologist, explained more in the statement from Worcestershire County Council. "It is fantastic to be able to finally locate and map physical remains of the battle and relate this to the historical record," he said. "We are just outside the registered battlefield area but this is still a nationally significant site."
Bradley continued, "The construction work has given us the opportunity to investigate the floodplain across which thousands of infantry and cavalry engaged, and to get down to the level where artifacts were deposited. Many of the lead musket and pistol balls show evidence of firing or impact. And these tangible signs of the conflict offer a poignant connection to the soldiers who fought and died here."
Interestingly, the artifacts have revealed more than just the location of where the Battle of Worcester played out. According to archaeologists, they also tell us precisely which troops were fighting in which part of the site. In one area, for example, the ammunition uncovered during excavations was largely pistol shot.
Because pistols were typically used by cavalry troops, experts believe, this shows that the area was manned by soldiers on horseback during the historic battle. Meanwhile, in another location, archaeologists discovered mostly musket shots. And so, they were able to conclude that most of the fighting in this spot was done on foot.
For the city, which has long been proud of its associations with the Civil War, the discovery has been a welcome one. In the statement from Worcestershire County Council, Councillor Lucy Hodgson elaborated. She said, "Finding these fascinating artifacts allows us to connect with a significant moment in Worcestershire's history."
Hodgson went on, "I am also delighted to see the great teamwork and cooperation between the construction teams and the archaeologists, who have seamlessly incorporated the dig into this large scheme of construction work. Preserving our history is vitally important to our county. And this latest dig is a shining example of how archaeology can bring our past to life."
Meanwhile, Richard Shaw, the chairman of a local history society, echoed Hodgson's delight that such important items had been uncovered after so many years. "How exciting that 368 years after the Battle of Worcester these artifacts should be discovered," he said. "We are sure that there was fighting at this location on September 3, 1651… The discoveries really bring the events of that day to life."
Moving forward, experts hope to analyze and document these artifacts in a bid to learn everything that they have to tell us about their fascinating past. Meanwhile, work has continued on the construction project that will ultimately swallow up the site where the Royalists made their final stand. But thanks to discoveries such as this one, historic moments like the Battle of Worcester will be remembered for generations to come.

A hallmark of current life is busyness. A frequent reply to "How are you?" is "so busy." We try to pack a lot into our days. When we add in special celebrations, such as Christmas and Hanukkah, the busy factor ramps up to what can become frenzy. Sometimes I think we wear busyness as a badge of honour.
I'm no exception - there's always far more that I'd like to do than there is time or energy. And I'm learning the value of slowing down. I'm not a "fix-it" kind of person, but here are some things that help me.
1. Wake up slowly. Our alarm clock goes off at 6:30. I try to make my first conscious thought one of gratitude to God for the day ahead. Then I lie in bed for 5-10 minutes, sometimes talking with my husband, sometimes semi-conscious. Leaping out of bed in the morning has never been my usual style.
2. Eat slowly. I tend to be a fast eater. Consciously putting my fork down between bites and taking more time is beneficial both for enjoying the moment and for eating less.
3. Walk more slowly. I'm a fast walker, whether in the shopping mall, through the halls at school, or out getting exercise. When I feel like I've got too much on my plate, and there's just too much to do, instead of going more quickly, I deliberately slow my pace. This has the effect of calming my mind.
4. Get outside. Fresh air, even when it's cold and wet, both invigorates and calms me. I saw a brief clip on television recently about a doctor giving a prescription for "eco-therapy" to someone who suffered from stress and depression. The prescription included listening, observing, and breathing.
5. Check out for a few minutes, when possible. Reading is the way I escape. In a rather backwards logic, I discovered years ago that when I was hurried and didn't feel like I'd ever catch up, taking 30-60 minutes to read a novel caused a mental retreat and regrouping that was always beneficial. When my children were small, I rested and read during their naps and quiet times. Invaluable!
I don't pretend to have all the answers. Do you have ways to cope with busyness? Do share.
This is an enlightening post, Lorrie. You have some really great ideas and tips. As much as I want to slow down and embrace the moments, my actual habits are quite slow. I hit the snooze button quite a few times in the morning, my family often gets impatient with me because I eat so slowly and they want to leave the table, and I don't think I know how to walk fast, I sort of drift!
I totally get what you are saying about being mindful, getting the most out of every experience, every day. I guess I'm just sort of a tortoise, and a bit too oblivious. I appreciate what you are getting at---take it all in, appreciate everything in your world!
My 'small moments' are very precious to me, as so much of my time is taken up as a Carer. A few minutes in the garden, talking to a primrose, or a quick coffee with the newspaper, are just rehab moments!
I try to not get too much on my schedule. Sometimes things bunch up and there is a lot going on, but then we have days of slow regular life and I need that!
Your points are very good ones, and I agree with them!
Wise suggestions, Lorrie, I smilled at the ecotherapy, but how true it is. Where we live there is such a rush the first two weeks of Christmas as people try to fit everything in, but then it gets quiet. That's when I really enjoy Christmas.
Good suggestions, every one. I have a tough time just sitting still -- have to at least be reading or knitting, to feel productive. Sometimes I try to sit with my cup of tea and just be, just let my thoughts wander as they will.
Lindas imagens. Bom fim de semana.
When feel scrunched by time, I find being outdoors helps the most, even just opening a door or window for a few minutes.
I love all of your points. I like to sit in the sun here in Florida sometimes (but not as often as I should). It's a matter of unplugging and just thinking. Listening to music helps me relax too. You've made a great list! Enjoy your weekend...hope you get some nice sunshine! Hugs!
Thank you for this. I always feel I am a hamster on a wheel, running around and never stopping. These tips will help.
You remind us that we need to take extra time to stop and reflect on the day, either at the beginning or at the end--even in the middle--to refresh and refocus. Your solutions are simple and easy. Now, just to take time. Of course, now that I retired, some days I spend too much time relaxing and need to find things to do--or at least the motivation! So thanks for the reminders.
I am bad about rushing around with my list of things to do, and always having a list that is impossible. I do plan on having some time to slow down after the holidays . . . I thought I could after Thanksgiving, but my sweet husband is now at home on crutches, my sister is on hospice care and I have family flying in from all over the country to see her, and all calling to see if they can stay at our house. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone, but it sure is becoming a busy time. I've got my Christmas decoration up inside and out and now it's time to start cleaning and planning meals . . . I love company but when everyone comes at once it can be very tiring. My old 72 year old body is screaming slow down . . . thanks for the advice; it's all very good.
Thanks for these tips, Lorrie. I can totally relate to #1-3. There is also growing body of scientific evidence that proves the positive health benefits of connecting to nature.
I like your ideas. My walks have gone from 40 minutes 20 years ago, to 45 minutes a year or two ago, to 50 minutes nowadays, for the same route. So I guess I'm walking more slowly... The putting the fork down between bites is what I need to work on.
Your posts today reminded me to find ways to slow down. I tend to stress and feel like I have so much to do, but when I sit down and organize a list, I can see that it's all do-able and I can relax. It stops the endless thoughts of things to do circling in my head and puts them on paper, so I can free my mind. And above all, I just have seen the Lord provide and orgaize my days in a way that I can feel that He is fulfulling my purpose.
What good tips. What helps me is to get the cards and most shopping done before December 1st, then I can enjoy gatherings, baking, music, and wrapping gifts more leisurely.

THE MOVE - NIGHT OF FEAR
THE MOVE - "Night Of Fear" / "Disturbance" (Deram DM109) December 1966
The Move burst onto the English pop scene with a destructive stage act and one of the greatest debut discs from a mid sixties act. The seminal "Night Of Fear" peaked at number two in the UK Charts but more mayhem and superb singles were to follow.
The pop-art mod beat gem "Disturbance" on the flip is equally memorable and would have been a strong contender as a single in it's own right.. "There's been a slight disturbance in my mind."
UK Chart Position: 2

Golden Arrows coach Steve Komphela has urged Bafana Bafana to display South Africa's football culture in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt in June.
Bafana have been drawn in Group D alongside Morocco, Namibia and Ivory Coast, with pundits describing the group as a tough one for Stuart Baxter's side.
"It is a tough one but who is it easy for? South Africa must just have confidence and go to the Afcon to go and reflect on who South Africa is as a nation. When you go to the World Cup, they profile us as an African country and what are the characteristics of Africans," said Komphela.
"We have to have a way that defines South Africa. We will go to the Afcon to show the rest of the team what it is to be South African and the pride of South Africa. If you don't have identity you'll be confused which is what we suffer from sometimes, lack of identity.

Electronic music's greatest controversy: The pop-EDM crossover [Magazine Featured]
By Amy Shaw
Once one of the most controversial tactics used by artists, the pop-EDM crossover collaboration is now commonplace within the electronic music industry. By joining forces, pop and electronic music pioneers have been able to mutually elevate their success by creating chart-topping hits that resonate with a larger fanbase. But this tactic isn't without its controversy, and many have faced criticism in the past for their willingness to blend genres. Despite this, many of the music industry's greatest hits to date have been founded upon the blending of genres, and in many cases, the genres in question are electronic and pop. But are crossover collaborations a positive or negative aspect of the music industry?
In most cases, artists that orchestrate a crossover collaboration are at the peak of their careers within the electronic music genre. This could be down to needing a solid track record in order to score a collaboration with a major name, or it could be due to other factors. Either way, crossover collaborations have been known to elevate an artists career further than ever previously imagined, generating a drastically larger reach for those involved. Venturing into the pop sphere allows artists to improve their chances of receiving plays on major radio stations, and even offers the opportunity for TV appearances during prime-time. It generates much greater publicity, and draws attention to their artistic career.
On the other side of the spectrum, many would argue that a pop-EDM crossover waters down both genres in order to create a radio-friendly anthem which doesn't appeal to the core fanbase of either artist. There are some elements of truth to this opinion, as the electronic elements of a track (in most cases) must be subdued to a degree to ready a track for mainstream exposure, although there of course are significant exceptions to this rule.

Several weeks back, I posted about a tantrum experience, and I'm still thinking about it.
I tried it. Laurel had a moment when she started to become unhappy because she wasn't getting her way. I picked her up and told her that she was choosing anger because she did not get her own way. Then I told her to stop being angry. I told her to be thankful instead. And we thought of a few things to be thankful for.
Later in the car, I asked, "What's wrong with complaining?" Bethel didn't know. Laurel says "Because God says not to." David thought that complaining was selfish because people don't like to hear it. (hmmm….. I'm sure I've been teaching that by what I do say as well as what I don't say.) Actually, complaining is sinful because it impugns the character of God– his ability to take care of me, and his great love for me. I had this conversation a few weeks ago, and just now I asked David, and he didn't know again. Guess I need to reteach this concept.
Tantrums involve failing to be self-controlled and content, and a failure to submit to authority. There are probably more sins in a tantrum that I haven't thought of. I've been thinking about this idea since I've been comparing it to anger held inside. Now I'm wondering, Can I have an internal tantrum? Yep. I can manifest these same sins on the inside as I can on the outside. Is it just as bad? As a mom, I don't respond my children the same way in these situations, and I want to know why. Is shouting I hate you worse than thinking it? Still thinking on this.
Thanks for reminding us we need to "continually teach" our children things over and over and over again. I will ask Caleb about a familiar Bible story and he will draw a blank. I will have thought that one was nailed and so why revisit and I am reminded over and over that things don't stay too long in their busy minds! Thanks for the reminder!

The Gas Safety Trust (GST) today (26 October 2017) published the Downstream Incident Data Report statistics for 2015-16. The report collates data relating to accidental carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning incidents in Great Britain (GB) associated with the use of mains natural gas and piped Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) in the home. Since 2011, information, albeit less extensive than that for mains gas, has also been collected concerning CO incidents associated with the domestic use of solid fuel and oil.
This year the report recorded 20 incidents, including five fatalities. Four of which were over 60 years of age and related to piped natural gas, and one 18-year-old male caused by an LPG space heater. All five fatal incidents occurred between September 2015 and January 2016.
This follows on from the 2014-15 period during which there were four fatalities, all over 80 years of age, where older appliances were involved. Support to those vulnerable customers is available via the priority services register (PSR), which is a free and voluntary system that your supplier and network uses to ensure the correct support is given to those in need.
"It is sad news that there have been five fatalities recorded by the DIDR data collection this year. Once again we are seeing an emerging trend of older people being poisoned. This chimes with other work we are funding elsewhere which is identifying vulnerable older people and those in fuel poverty as particularly at risk.
The GST, set up in 2005, is the UK's leading gas safety research charity and has in recent years refocused its strategy on funding several strands of CO related research, to provide the underpinning empirical evidence that supports improved awareness and understanding of the effects of CO.


A new psychological chiller called THE THREAD is currently nearing completion in London, following weeks of filming in India and also on the Isle of Man (an independent island located just East of England). The film stars BATMAN BEGINS' Linus Roache (pictured), Saffron (DEEP BLUE SEA) Burrows and the glamorous pop star Andrea Corr in the story of a London-based businessman named Ram (Roache) who suffers from bizarre visions and strange occurrences, which finally push him to the edge of sanity. Summoned back to India by his father, a holy man who is suffering from his own problems, Ram is unable to make it to his home country before his parent's unfortunate death. Mourning the loss of his dad, Ram becomes spooked by the sudden appearance of the dead man and also a shadowy and mysterious figure. This glimpse into the supernatural leads Ram and his wife Jenny, into a terrifying journey.
THE THREAD is directed by Mahesh Mathai, whose sole previous credit is the David Lynch-approved BHOPAL EXPRESS. At present, there is no news on when this independently funded Brit ghost story is likely to hit screens, but watch this space for details.

Crime Zones and Reasoning (Poverty, Race, Social Class)
Sociology is a branch of the social sciences that attempts to help us understand society and how people interact. As with many other social sciences, sociology employs theories to help understand why people make certain decisions. Theories that help us explain societal trends are usually segmented in order to accurately examine the specific dynamics of different sections of society. Communities, institutions, gender, race and population are a few popular examples of common segmentations utilized in social theories. Social structure theories, also called social change theories attempt to analyze the driving forces that change society.

Sociologists who study social change use the study of both criminology and sociology to draw conclusions about criminal behavior. The overarching belief of criminology theory is that certain social structures support deviant behavior. The three main branches of social structure theories are the social disorganization theory, the social strain theory and the cultural deviance theory. How well have social structure theories explained delinquent behavior in society? In this paper, the major social structural theories will be defined and analyzed.
Social Disorganization Theory: Concentric Zone Theory
The Centric Zone Theory was proposed by Shaw, and examined arrest rates in Chicago. It was during these years immigrants living in the inner city begin to relocate to the outskirts of the city.
The purpose of their study was to conclude if delinquency was caused by particular immigrant groups or by the environment in which immigrants lived. Park and Burgess adopted the original concentric zone theory, and which separated Chicago into 5 distinct zones.
Which were:
2. Transitional Zone
3. Working Class Zone
5. Commuter Zone
The experiment reveled that arrest rates consistently remained high for Zone 2, the transitional zone. They ultimately concluded that delinquency rates are related with ecological environment in which a person or group dwells.
Social Ecology Theory
This theory is based on the contention that change is natural. Further, this theory suggests that when an area is invaded, competition erupts and competition leads to disorganization, which can spark deviance. This theory disagrees with the social disorganization theory, since the theory presented by Shaw and McKay generalizes data to make conclusions on an individual basis.
However, the social ecological theory seeks to explain the high crime rates in urban areas based on individual circumstances.
Strain Theories
The strain theory postulates that when regulation is inadequate social problems arise. Anomie Theory states individuals who lack the vehicles to help them realize their objectives eventually become disillusioned and may ultimately turn towards a life of crime. There are two main types of strain. Structural strain is the method that improper law enforcement causes a person to view his or her needs. Individual strain is the pressure that people feel while seeking to meet their personal desires.
General Strain Theory
The main focus is on defining the types of strain. Agnew identifies the measurements of strain, the major types of strain, the links between strain and crime, coping strategies for strain as well as the determinants of delinquent behavior.
The General Strain theory deals with the emotional aspect of criminal behavior.
Cultural Deviance Theory
Where social organizational theory focuses on conditions in the environment
and strain theory concentrates on the conflict between goals and means,
cultural deviance theory combines the two schools of thought.
Millers Focal Concern Theory
Identifies the core values of lower-class culture and their association to
crime. Core values are defined as: trouble, toughness, excitement, fate,
smartness and autonomy.
READ: The Jesuits Essay
These values may lead to a life of crime since they are
at odds with the values of the superior culture. Both the social disorganization and social ecology theories attempt to explain why certain groups have a higher delinquency rate than others. Though these conclusions do strongly resemble trends in delinquency rates among inner city residents today. The primary problem is the existence of multicollinearity (where a linear relationship exists among the explanatory variables) since some of the data such as overcrowding and substandard housing are highly correlated with one another. Such data flaws may adversely affect the accuracy of the theory. The strain theories express the discontent of Americans who fail to achieve
the American dream.

Criminology Essay, the study of crime, society's response to it, and its prevention, including examination of the environmental, hereditary, or psychological causes of crime, modes of criminal investigation and conviction, and the efficacy of punishment or correction as compared with forms of treatment or rehabilitation. Although it is generally considered a subdivision of criminology also draws on the findings of psychology, economics, and other disciplines that investigate humans and their environment.

One of the biggest issues in America today is crime. It is a large problem that continues to erode our country economically as well as morally. Because of the vastness of the problem, many have speculated what the cause for crime may be in hopes that a solution will be found. Many believe that a bad family life, location of residence, and poverty hold a few of the answers to why an individual becomes involved in criminal activity. Crime has been a major problem addressed in every presidential campaign for about three decades. This is because the American people are...

person would be considered to be acting deviantly in society if they are violating what the significant social norm in that particular culture is. What causes humans to act certain ways is a disputed topic among researchers for some time now. There are three types of researchers that have tried to answer this question. There is the psychological answer, biological answer, and the sociological answer. With all of the studies that have been performed, no one group has come up with an exact reason to why people behave deviantly. Although, sociologists theories have not been disproved as often as the...

According to the textbook, the legal, and most common, definition of crime is that it is a legalistic one in that it violates the criminal law and is punishable with jail terms, fines, and other sanctions. The Human Rights definition of crime defines crime as an action that violates the basic rights of humans to obtain the necessities of life and to be treated with respect and dignity. Unlike the legal definition of crime, the Human Rights definition of crime has a broader concept than its counterpart. With the Human Rights definition of crime, criminologists are...

Ернст Л. Фройд (нім. Ernst L. Freud,  6 квітня 1892 року, Відень — 7 квітня 1970 року, Лондон) — австрійський архітектор та четверта дитина від шлюбу фундатора психоаналізу Зигмунда Фройда й Марти Бернайс. У 1920 році в честь обранки Ернст Фройд додав ініціал Л. до імені, внаслідок чого середній ініціал став означати Люсі, а не Людвіг, як часто припускається.

Життя
У 1920 році Ернст Фройд заснував власну фірму в Берліні, де більшість, ймовірно через славу батька, клієнтів були лікарі. Головна частина замовлень була пов'язана з будинками та консультаційними кабінетами, які переважно створювались у стилі ар-деко, але після 30-тих перейшов на сучасний стиль, демонструючи вплив Міс ван дер Рое. Як приклад можна навести сигаретну фабрику в Берліні та будинок для доктора Франка у Гельтові під Потсдамом. Доктор Франк був керуючим Deutsche Bank, поки не був змушений відмовитися від посади в 1933 і відправитися у вигнання в 1938.

У 1933 році, з приходом до влади нацистів, Ернст Фройд поїхав із Берліна до Лондона, де оселився у Сент-Джонс-Вуд. Там було отримано низку замовлень на будівництво приватних будинків та багатоквартирних хмарочосів у районі Гемпстеда, включаючи знаменитий Фрогнал Клоуз у 1938 році, Бельведер Корт, Літтелтон Роуд та консультаційний кабінет для Мелані Кляйн. Ернст Фройд, його дружина та діти стали натуралізованими британськими підданими наприкінці серпня 1939.

У 1938 році батьки Ернста Фройда і молодша сестра Ганна Фройд приєдналися до родини в Лондоні й переїхали до будинку в Гемпстеді, який Ернст перебудував задовго, включаючи створення заскленої садової кімнати. Сьогодні у цьому будинку знаходиться музей Фройда. Після смерті Зигмунда Фройда 1939 року Ернст Фройд організував похорон у крематорії Голдерс Грін. Ернст також пізніше спроєктував мармуровий цоколь, на якому було встановлено урну батька.

Останні три роки свого життя, після серцевого нападу, який змусив його піти з посади архітектора, Фройд присвятив себе редагуванню листування свого батька — проєкт, який довгий час був його вільним заняттям. Він був редактором книги «Листи Зигмунда Фрейда», опублікованої в Нью-Йорку в 1960 році, і співредактором книги «Психоаналіз і віра: листи Зігмунда Фройда та Оскара Пфістера», опублікованої в Нью-Йорку в 1964.

Feasterville, Pennsylvania is located in Lower Bucks County, and it offers parents an ideal suburban neighborhood for raising a family while being just a 25 minute drive from Trenton and about 30 minutes from Philadelphia. If you are searching for a new home in this township, Brickyard is a new construction community that offers a selection of townhomes that provide superb amenities in a fantastic location. You'll have a convenient commute to work in the nearby cities with seemingly limitless amenities for you and the entire family. Brickyard townhouses offer you a world of possibilities when it comes to giving you a place for you and your children to build memories that will last a lifetime.
The Brickyard community was constructed by County Builders.


On Saturday 1st October The Griffin's Food Company held its annual inter- departmental football tournament, the James Achari Cup. The tournament was created in memory of James Achari, a huge football fan who sadly passed away in 2012 after almost 20 years with the business.
The day is an opportunity for the whole company to come together, connect and engage in a bit of healthy competition. 14 teams from our Papakura, Wiri and Ellerslie sites took part in the day. After a penalty shootout, team 'Tasty Cheese' from Papakura were the tournament victors, defeating the 'Mellow Tuffs' from Ellerslie.
There was a fantastic turn out and with the weather improving was a great day out for the whole family, even Cookie Bear made an appearance. No doubt the teams will already be strategizing for next years' tournament.


About a year ago, I wrote about Learning New Things for 2012 and joining the 12412 project – which was intended to be a starting point for me to learn new things during the year that's now coming to an end. So, how has that worked out? Well, not that great actually although I have started some new 'learning subjects' and increased my usage of some things that weren't completely new (cheat!). Here's my summary of the year in that respect.
I've joined Audioboo and VoiceBo which are apps/websites that allow you to make short audiologs/recordings via your desktop or mobile phone. Part of the reason for joining was to try something new but also I wanted to take part in #audiomo for November.
I've developed and managed a few WordPress websites for myself (and for clients) and recently I've been using the Jetpack plug-in. It's actually a collection of plug-ins that provides additional functionality for your WordPress blog/website. I like it!
Jetpack is made by Automattic, the company behind WordPress, and was orginally only available if your site was hosted on WordPress.com. Now, it's available for self-hosted sites as well. So, what does it provide? Here are some of the options in the Jetpack package.
This year, I've started a local co-working group in Horsham. It's always a good idea to regularly review an initiative like this. How is it going? The pros and cons. How do I develop it further? I've been thinking about these recently so this post is a good opportunity to summarise and assess progress.
I like to run a few personal websites and really enjoy writing articles for these. The articles are not about web-related technical stuff but describe things I get up to in my spare time. I guess this is a bit of a 'diversion' for me and one way to get away from my 9-to-5 job as a freelance web developer/designer.
What do you do with old websites and domains?
I've bought quite a few domain names in the last ten years and also created websites on many of them. Some of these have been personal projects where I had an idea for making millions on the Internet (like we all have) but, no surprise, they failed in that respect. I've made some pocket money with Google Adsense on a few of them so that's been good but I won't be retiring from my day job as a web designer/developer any time soon.
Perch is a lightweight CMS that I've used quite a lot recently. You can build a website in the normal way and then assign areas or sections of HTML to the Perch system via templates (snippets of HTML containing Perch tags). Additionally, the admin control panel seems to be easily understood by clients. It all works great!
Even though Perch is a lightweight system, it can still be pretty powerful because you can share content areas between pages and also hide or show content quite easily. This is all explained in the Perch documentation but the ability to hide or show content areas is something that is a bit 'underplayed' (or perhaps I only discovered this after everybody else) so I thought I'd highlight it.
At the end of last month, I went to the March meet-up of Worthing Digital where Harry Brignull from Clearleft described the development of an iPad app for The Week magazine. Taking a print magazine's content and designing a tablet app in ten weeks was, I think, a tough challenge, so it was great to hear the project described in some detail.
I wrote about the 12414 project a few months ago. It's an initiative to encourage you to learn new things over the course of 2012 and I signed up so that I would have to set aside more time for personal learning over the course of the year. That's been partly successful but I haven't done as much as I would have liked in the first few months. However, what I have done is read up on the HTML5 Geolocation API, which is a subject that I didn't know much about. Here are a few of the articles and tutorials that I have been reading.
So, I have been thinking a lot about responsive web design recently. I've been reading about some CSS frameworks and recoding some of my core files so they can adapt to any grid system that I choose to use. As a result, I've decided to use fluid or elastic layouts or hybrid layouts wherever possible from now on.

How the latest Government Guidelines Affect Harrogate Town AFC
On Monday 22nd February the Government revealed their roadmap for lifting lockdown restrictions in England, which will impact our club in many ways…
Firstly, supporters being able to return to stadia no earlier than 17th May means our remaining EFL fixtures in the 2020/21 season will be played behind closed doors. Should we reach the end of season Play-Offs, further guidance will be issued.
2020/21 Half Season Ticket Holders will not be issued with refunds, though will remain able to stream our fixtures at no extra cost.
2020/21 Season Ticket Deposit Holders will be contacted directly via email with options for their unused Deposit in due course.
We are awaiting further guidance from the relevant authorities before we can confirm arrangements for ticketing for the 2021/22 season.
Prior to the return of supporters for the 2020/21 season, guidance will be issued on the protocols surrounding the safe return of supporters to the EnviroVent Stadium.
FA Trophy Final
As of yet the club has not received a date for the 2020 FA Trophy Final against Concord Rangers, due to be played at Wembley Stadium. Further information regarding this fixture will be released once it becomes available.
Our Player Development Centre will resume on Monday 29th March 2021 subject to no change in the current Government guidance. Parents will be contacted prior to this date with further information including schedule, payment and safety measures in place.
Youth/Ladies Teams
On Monday 22nd February the FA issued the following update - The 2020/21 season has been extended until the end of June in order to provide additional flexibility and time for leagues to complete their fixtures this season if they wish to do so.
We expect more information from relevant leagues within the coming weeks in regards to fixtures resuming. Team Managers will be in touch with members of the team to discuss any plans to return to training.
Education Programme
We are currently evaluating whether our Education offering will continue to run online, or return to The EnviroVent Stadium with safety protocols in place, which could be an option no earlier than the 8th March. Students will be contacted directly regarding any changes.
Our club shop at The EnviroVent Stadium is able to re-open no earlier than Monday 12th April. Should this be the case, opening times will be communicated closer to the time.
In the meantime, our online store remains operational, with both collection and delivery available.
