Why Do I Crave Salt So Much?
December 12, 2018 admin	Comment(0)
Salty foods rev up our taste buds, and many of us are more apt to reach for the salt shaker than to pass up the opportunity. But do you find yourself craving salt daily, perhaps more than seems normal? Ever wonder why this might be the case?
The recommended salt intake for adults is no more than 2,300 milligrams a day, ideally under 1,500 milligrams, according to the American Heart Association. Americans end up consuming nearly 50 percent more than that on average ― a habit that comes with health risks.
Below are a few of the most common reasons why you're lusting after salty foods, plus expert guidance on how to curb your cravings.
You're exercising a lot

Sweating depletes the body of sodium.
Our body is depleted of sodium when we sweat, which then makes us need to consume more to restore normal serum levels, Emily Kyle, author of The 30-Minute Thyroid Cookbook, said.
"Over-exercising, long-distance running or any strenuous athletic activity may cause a craving for salt due to an imbalance in electrolytes, namely between potassium and sodium," said Dr. David A. Greuner, a cardiovascular surgeon and surgical director of NYC Surgical Associates.
Reaching for a sports drink may help replace electrolytes in some cases. You can also make your own electrolyte drink by combining lemon and lime juice, ginger, a pinch of sea salt and a spoonful of liquid sweetener, like honey or agave.
You're dehydrated
Dehydration can also manifest as a salt craving. This occurs when the body does not have the level of fluids to function properly, said Dr. Constantine George, founder and chief medical officer of Epitomedical, a private practice which combines internal medicine and pediatrics. "This is your body's way of telling you to eat or drink more," he said.
This may also happen if you're pregnant. "Pregnant women may be more likely to crave salt because of dehydration induced by pregnancy-related vomiting or nausea," said Rachel Daniels, senior director of nutrition at online clinic Virtual Health Partners.
You're PMSing
If you're reaching for everything salty the week before your period, you're not alone. George said that premenstrual syndrome, or PMS, can cause cravings ― including the desire for salty foods.
While those pretzels or chips may be comforting, they also may contribute to some other PMS symptoms. Studies show that salt consumption can cause water retention, which already occurs before your period, and that can lead to discomfort or bloating.
You're stressed

People often experience more salt cravings when they're stressed.
A tough day at work may prompt you to reach for a bag of chips. Kyle said salt cravings may also be "a result of behaviors or patterns such as boredom or stress, which can cause an individual to mindlessly eat more salt than they actually need."
You're not getting enough sleep
Sleep deprivation makes people more likely to give in to junk food cravings, according to a 2013 study. So skimping on rest may explain why the next afternoon, you're unable to resist ordering French fries or snacking on some extra salty potato chips. Experts recommend that adults get seven to nine hours of sleep each night.
Salt can make you feel good
You may also crave salt because it lights up the pleasure center in your brain and releases a hormone called dopamine, which makes you feel happy, said Ysabel Montemayor, the lead dietitian for national food delivery service Fresh n' Lean.
Ingesting salty foods can almost mimic a drug-like reaction. "Salt, sugar, and fatty foods do this," she added. Since most people have a natural appreciation for the taste of salt, eating foods that contain it may stimulate a feeling of pleasure. "This may cause us to crave salt when it is not present since we're left looking for that same sense of pleasure," Montemayor said.
Humans were initially wired to crave it

Salt used to be harder to find.
"Humans have an innate drive to seek salt because it is necessary for survival and historically a rare mineral to find," said Heather Woodward, a registered dietitian with Copeman Healthcare Centre in Canada. But today, the addictive substance is more than easy to find ― and get plenty of in your diet.
"An abundance of salt is in our food supply and most people in Western societies get too much salt," she said.
Your taste buds are now used to more salt
If you've been generous with your salt shaker, your body may be used to sodium and may consider an extra shake to be normal.
"Over time we can actually build a tolerance to salty and sweet foods, meaning that if we're accustomed to eating salty food, for something to taste extra salty and delicious it needs even more salt than we're used to," Woodward said. The opposite is also true. Something that may not taste salty to other people may taste very salty to a person who consumes a low-salt diet.
You may have an underlying health issue
It's rare, but it's still worth mentioning: Certain medical conditions can cause your body to crave salt. Addison's disease, which is also known as adrenal insufficiency, is an uncommon condition that happens when your body doesn't produce enough hormones. Additional symptoms include extreme fatigue, muscle or joint pain, body hair loss, low blood sugar, hyperpigmentation and abdominal pain.
Bartter syndrome, a rare genetic condition that impairs the kidney's ability to restore salt, can also lead to cravings, according to the National Organization for Rare Disorders. Other symptoms include muscle weakness, excessive urination, cramping, spasms and fatigue.
Talk to your doctor if you're experiencing any types of abnormal symptoms.
How To Combat Salt Cravings

Using other spices and herbs can help you avoid excessive salt.
Excessive salt consumption has been linked to diabetes, kidney disorders, high blood pressure and heart disease, according to Serena Poon, a celebrity chef and nutritionist based in Los Angeles. Therefore, you want to be mindful of how much you are eating. If you feel like you may be consuming too much salt, you may want to attempt to reduce how much sodium you ingest.
Our excessive salt consumption often is just a habit, Poon said. "Many times, the craving for salt stems from a behavioral foundation," she said. "We crave salt just out of habit or conditioning."
If you are yearning for salty foods, she recommended first opting for whole foods that are higher in a natural sodium content, such as celery, leafy greens, carrots or seaweed.
You can also use herbs and spices instead of salt, said Kimberly Gomer, director of nutrition with Pritikin Longevity Center, a health and wellness spa in Miami. "At the beginning it can be tough, but your palate will adjust," she said.

Did you know that sign language isn't actually as old as you think? American Sign Language is actually a fairly recent established language, used by hearing-impaired individuals all over the world. In today's blog, Akorbi discusses 5 interesting facts you may not have known about sign language.
While there are many recorded records of sign language as early as 60 A.D., sign language wasn't formally created until about the 17th century. Charles Michel de l'Eppe, who was a French priest, was one of the first advocates for deaf rights. In 1755, he established the original public school for deaf children called Institution Nationale des Sourds-Muets à Paris (National Institute for Deaf-Mutes in Paris). It led to l'Epee being referred to as the 'Father of the Deaf,' and the school became known all over the world.
Sign language isn't universal and there are actually many different version of it. American Sign Language (ASL) is actually one of many versions of sign language developed over the years. The first version was invented in France and called French Sign Language (FSL). Today, there are many versions of sign language, each with their own unique signs and quirks like all languages have.
l'Eppe's school originally only taught the basic alphabet. He learned that his students all had unique signs that they used at home to communicate certain words or ideas without using the entire alphabet. l'Eppe adapted these signs along with his manual alphabet and created a sign language dictionary. This standardized sign language is now referred to as Old French Sign Language and it quickly spread across Europe and to the United States.
Even though deaf people sign with their hands, facial expressions are just as important as hand movements when communicating. When hearing individuals use tone and rhythm to represent a current mood or feeling when speaking, deaf people do a similar thing except with their facial expressions. Someone who is "listening" to a deaf person speak will most often pay attention to the signer's hands and mouth to pick up on language cues.
In 1817, Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet, a Yale graduate, met Dr. Mason Cogswell and his deaf daughter, Alice. After learning about Alice's story, they embarked on a voyage to Europe to learn the art of educating deaf children. Gallaudet went on to enlist the help of Laurent Clerc, a talented deaf teacher graduated from l'Eppe's school, to establish the first permanent school for the deaf in the United States. Today, it's known as the American School for the Deaf, formerly known as Gallaudet University, in Hartford, Connecticut.

Ett marginellt fonem är ett fonem (ett språkljud) med begränsad distribution och/eller frekvens i en språklig varietet (ett "språk"). Det har så gott som ingen betydelse för begripligheten om en talare av ett språk låter bli att skilja ett marginellt fonem från andra fonem. Ett vanligt slag av marginellt fonem är fonem importerade från andra språk genom lånord eller pseudolånord, som när standardsvenskan har lånat ordet swish för en betalningsapplikation och standardsvensktalande uttalar engelskt /w/ i varumärket Swish eller i pseudoanglicismen afterwork.

Fastställa ett språkljuds fonemstatus

Den teoretiska grunden för att säga att ett fonem existerar i en språklig varietet (ett talspråk) är att man kan finna minimala ordpar. Ett exempel är /b/ och /p/, som inte är marginella fonem i standardsvenska. Fonemen /b/ och /p/ är skilda fonem i standardsvenska eftersom man kan finna ett stort antal ordpar som bara skiljer sig genom att ha /b/ eller /p/:
⟨bil⟩–⟨pil⟩
⟨beta⟩–⟨peta⟩
⟨gubbar⟩–⟨guppar⟩
eller med fonematisk transkription:
/biːl/–/piːl/
/beːta/–/peːta/
/gɵbːar/–/gɵpːar/

Dessa två fonem kan i sin tur skiljas från andra fonem (bil – pil – mil – fil) tills man funnit alla standardsvenska fonem.

(Skrivtecknen ⟨ och ⟩ ovan betecknar grafematisk transkription, att skriva med vanliga skrivtecken.)

/w/ i standardsvenska

Många som talar standardsvenska har nu minimala ordpar som ⟨svischa⟩–⟨swisha⟩: Den svischade förbi – Han swishade pengarna. Fonemet /w/ kontrasterar med /v/. Man kan alltså finna minimala ordpar i många talares standardsvenska, varest den enda skillnaden är att ett ord har ljudet /w/. Detta är den grundläggande indikationen på att ett fonem existerar.

Men /w/ är ett marginellt fonem i svenska. Man kan låta bli att använda fonemet /w/ (och i stället uttala ett v‑ljud: Han svishade pengarna) utan att det har stor betydelse; förmodligen kommer de flesta lyssnare inte ens att lägga märke till uttalet.

(Ett w‑ljud har funnits i svenska som basfonem sedan förhistorisk tid, och finns fortfarande i svenska, nämligen i svenska folkmål, men här talar vi om den svenska språkliga varieteten standardsvenska, som till nyligen hade w‑ljud ännu mera sparsamt än nu.)

Ljud kan uteslutas från basfonemen trots att minimalt ordpar finns

Forskare tvekar att räkna /w/ som ett fonem i standardsvenska, eftersom exemplen är få. Vanligen gör man därför skillnad på allmänt erkända fonem och marginella fonem.

Allmänt erkända fonem som är viktiga i en språklig varietet kan kallas basfonem. Fonemen /b/ och /p/ är basfonem i standardsvenska, eftersom det skulle vara uppseendeväckande att uttala /b/ som /p/ eller som /v/, eller ha något annat sådant omfattande fonemsammanfall.

Fler exempel på marginella fonem

/æ/ i standardsvenska

Ett annat fall av (ytterst) marginellt fonem är att "sportväskorna" kan kallas "bagarna", fonetiskt [ˈbæːgarna], med engelsk öppet ä‑ljud, som i "the bag". Minimala ordpar finns i dessa meningar:
Bagarna bakar.
Bägarna är fulla.
Bagarna innehåller tennisskor och racketar.

⟨š⟩ i standardfinska

I standardfinska har man gått så långt som att införa bokstaven š i alfabetet för låorden med sje‑ljud, som i ⟨šampoo⟩ (schampo) och ⟨šakki⟩ (schack). Ändå räknas sje‑ljudet inte till det finska basfonemsystemet, utan är ett marginellt fonem i standardfinska.

ach‑ljud i standardengelska, IPA /x/

Många som talar en standardengelsk språklig varietet använder ledigt ach‑ljud i ord som The Loch Ness Monster, Gordon Strachan och Bach Concerto. De har det marginella fonemet /x/. Internationella fonetiska alfabetets symbol [x] står inte för "eks" utan för tonlös velar frikativa.

On Monday morning, July 11, 2005 at 9 a.m., Jeff 's parents Marilyn and Bob Wear were notified at their front door that Jeff had been fatally injured in a traffic accident. Jeff, age 27 was their oldest son. He has a younger brother Matt, who lives in Los Angeles, California. The tragedy was very unexpected and hit the whole family very hard. It is widely known throughout the stormchasing community how important the weather was to Jeff. He had devoted his life to weather and that is why he moved to Norman, OK.
Jeff was returning from chasing Hurricane Dennis the weekend of July 9-11, 2005, when he encountered sudden heavy rains on I-20 near Kilgore, Texas. Although he was driving at or below speed limit, the sudden downpour of water on the highway caused his car to hydroplane off the road, across the meridian and into oncoming traffic on the other side, where he was struck by a flatbed truck and killed instantly.
Jeff's family has decided that Jeff would have wanted to keep his work in storm chasing available for the pleasure of all that were interested, and as such his website will remain intact. His videos are still available through his mother Marilyn Wear as well directly through this website. We have made every effort to keep his website as close to the way he last left it as possible. We have linked a few pages he had completed but not yet linked to the main site. The payment links for video have been adjusted to go to his mother, and the email addresses have been changed as necessary. Otherwise, it's just like he left it.
You can read just how his fellow storm chasers felt about Jeff in this message board thread at StormTrack.org.
Videos - Quicktime movie clips of tornadoes, lightning, and time lapse of supercells. NEW!!!!
Images - Scanned 35mm prints and video captures of thunderstorm-related phenomena dating to 1994.
Merchandise - DVD and VHS highlights from Jeff's chases.
Links - Weather information, weather-related businesses, other chasers and severe weather enthusiasts.
The Vault - Chase humor, editorials, climate summaries, interesting weather events, and everything else that doesn't quite fit in the other categories.

ADAM KENWRIGHT almost became a professional footballer. He played in goal for England schoolboys and had trials with Arsenal, Everton and other teams, but he could not cut the mustard.
"I loved it, but now I am glad that I was not good enough to make it, because it meant that I followed the career I have today," he said.
That career means rubbing shoulders with the stars at awards nights, commuting to New York (economy class) each month and running a global entertainment agency with an annual turnover in 2011 of more than £40m. But it all began with an after-school job at his uncle's business.

Fox's Sports Network To Debut Saturday, With or Without the Sound
By Josh Sanburn @joshsanburnAug. 16, 2013

The FOX Sports Live team, from left: Ephraim Salaam, Andy Roddick, Gary Payton, Jay Onrait, Dan O'Toole, Charissa Thompson, Donovan McNabb
Huge Upside for Launch of Fox Sports 1 and 2 Channels Variety
Fox Sports 1 not the usual new kid on ESPN's block USA Today
Fox Sports 1's Strategy vs. ESPN: 'Jockularity' Bloomberg Businessweek
Four days before launching the first serious challenge to ESPN's decades-long domination of televised sports, the executives of Fox Sports 1 — the 24/7 national sports network set to launch this weekend — were telling jokes. Slightly dark jokes, in fact.
"The goal is to get through Saturday without strangling anybody," said Fox Sports co-president Eric Shanks.
"We'll just step over the bodies," responded Bill Wanger, the executive vice president for programming.
Fox Sports execs appear to be having fun these days, and that attitude is something they hope filters down to the on-air personalities they've hired and the slate of sports shows set to debut tomorrow. After several years of planning and strategic acquisitions, at 6 a.m. EST on Saturday, Fox Sports 1 will take over from the Fox-owned Speed motorsports channel in roughly 90 million homes, blanketing the nation with 24/7 sports coverage in a bold attempt to chip away at ESPN's hegemony.
(MORE: Europe's False Recovery)
But the Fox executives say their strategy for taking on ESPN is not merely to imitate it — and a strong dose of irreverence is one of the characteristics they hope will differentiate their new offering. Perhaps most notably, its line-up will include Fox Sports Live, a nightly highlight show that will compete directly with ESPN's SportsCenter, but be hosted by Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole, a Canadian duo better known for their comedy behind the Canadian SportsCentre anchor desk than for their sharp sports insight.
Still, Fox Sports 1 will have plenty of what you'd expect from a full-blown 24/7 sports network by the company that brought us Fox News. The channel is launching with instantly recognizable on-air talent, including Regis Philbin, former NFL quarterback Donovan McNabb, and former tennis star Andy Roddick. And it has bought up the rights to broadcast big-time sporting events like Pac-12 and Big 12 college football, U.S. Open golf, Major League Baseball, World Cup soccer, and the increasingly popular Ultimate Fighting Championship.
As it turns out, the channel's execs says that Fox News itself provided ideas and inspiration for ways the new channel could distinguish itself from its powerful competitor. That makes sense given the parallels between the challenges faced by the two Fox channels. Back in 1996, the 24-hour cable news world looked a bit like today's TV sports landscape: A single behemoth that appeared unbeatable: CNN. But by the early 2000s, Fox News had already surpassed CNN in the ratings and has maintained its lead ever since. The strategy relied heavily on big personalities and the extensive use of visuals and graphics to keep viewers interested — all elements the Fox Sports 1 execs have taken notice of.
"The topic bars and the graphics will constantly be telling you what's going on," Shanks says of FS1. "They may even be paraphrasing what some of the talent are saying, or what some of the guests are saying, so you can get the gist of the conversation even with the sound off."
In fact, Shanks says Fox Sports 1's programming will generally be required to pass what he calls the "bar test" — meaning that a viewer should be able to glean some information or otherwise grasp what's happening while sitting in a bar where the TV is muted. "Traditionally, regular news does that very, very well," he says. "You can sit down and watch news with the sound off and still very much keep up with what's going on."
(MORE: Martin Luther King Jr.: Architect of the 21st Century)
The "bar test" approach also appears to be aimed at millennials who aren't likely to be focusing their attention on the TV whether they're in a bar or their own homes. Instead, they're tweeting or texting friends on their smartphones or checking scores on their tablets — and displaying bits and chunks of information visually will make it easy for such viewers to tune in and out on the fly.
Gabriel Kahn, a journalism professor at the University of Southern California who studies how news is consumed, says the average media user rarely spends more than two or three minutes with a single news source, and often far less, something news organizations need to stay cognizant of to be relevant. "You have to tailor your experience more and more to something that is going to be consumed on-the-go with other distractions," Kahn says. "You can't expect to have their attention for very long, and the more malleable you can make that experience so it can work in different environments, the more success you're going to have."
The industry will be watching the FS1 debut closely. Few rivals have emerged since ESPN launched in 1979, and the ones that did withered away. The only serious threat over three decades was CNN/SI, a network that lasted from 1996 to 2002, and that failed largely because it didn't have rights to enough popular sporting events to truly challenge the monster in Bristol, Conn.
Most other upstart sports networks took a regional approach, buying up rights to broadcast local games in more targeted areas. NBC Sports Regional Networks (also known as Comcast SportsNet) owns or partly owns a dozen such networks, like Comcast SportsNet Bay Area or Comcast SportsNet Chicago. Fox owns 22 of them, including Fox Sports Wisconsin and Fox Sports New Orleans. But neither strategy was meant to challenge ESPN on a national scale.
By 2011, though, Fox noticed that the rights to a number of big-time events would soon become available to the highest bidder. It quickly bought up rights to air Pac-12 ($3 billion over 12 years) and Big 12 football games ($1.2 billion over 13 years). It signed a seven-year deal to broadcast UFC matches ($700 million for seven years). It renewed contracts with Major League Baseball to air regular season games and the World Series ($4 billion over eight years). Throw in some NASCAR races, the World Cup, and Big East Conference men's basketball games, and suddenly Fox had enough events to consider going national. It just needed a place to air it all.
For that, Fox is transforming Speed, a channel for which cable operators pay Fox only 20 to 30 cents per subscriber household but was already in tens of millions of homes. Analysts expect those subscriber fees to triple for the new all-sports Fox channel, potentially bringing in $1 billion in revenue. That's still nowhere near the more than $5 per subscriber ESPN is reportedly able to command, but some advertising analysts believe that Fox will be able to bring in five times the advertising revenue that Speed and a sister channel brought in in the first year alone. That says a lot about the increasing importance of live sports for advertisers: Most sports fans prefer to watch games live instead of recording them, making it more likely that they'll also sit through ads instead of fast-forwarding through them with DVR.
On Saturday, Fox Sports 1 will kick off its inaugural day with 16 hours of live coverage and programming, including a NASCAR race at the Michigan International Speedway and UFC Fight Night: Shogun vs. Sonnen, along with the premiere of their flagship show, Fox Sports Live, an irreverent program that will likely set the tone for the network. It may resemble SportsCenter. It may at times even look like SportsCenter. But Fox Sports' execs plan for it to be a different animal altogether.
"We knew we had to be different than ESPN," says Robert Gottlieb, Fox Sports 1's head of marketing, who used focus groups a couple years ago to help chart a path for what sports fans were looking for on TV. "If we came on the air and just copied ESPN, we would fail. You have to have a little bit of a different angle. This is sports, and sports is supposed to be fun."
Correction: A previous version of the story stated that Fox Sports 1 will be airing Big 10 football games. They will instead air Big 12 football games.

Amanda Schneider | Retain Your Talent: How To Inspire Lawyers To Stay With Your Firm for the Long Term
Amanda Schneider is the Chief Marketing Officer at Epstein Becker Green (EBG), a national law firm focused on healthcare, life sciences, and labor and employment law. She has been with the company for nearly 15 years, starting out as the Director of Strategic Initiatives before moving up the ranks.
As the CMO, Amanda oversees a team of 25 business development, communications, and marketing operations professionals. Additionally, she staffs EBG's board of directors and focuses on meeting the firm's business objectives while generating revenue and growing the client base.
Amanda believes that a law firm's marketing, business development, and professional development departments can play a powerful role in attorney retention. When these departments work cohesively for the benefit of attorneys, your firm is able to inspire, motivate, and educate your people, thus leading to higher retention rates, a strong culture, and a profound sense of community.
With the rise of hybrid and remote work, it's easier than ever for employees to move from one job to the next. So, what can law firms do to retain talent, inspire teams, and make them want to stay for the long term?
Amanda Schneider shares the important reminder that all attorneys are different. Each employee has unique needs, learning styles, and goals. So, if you want to succeed as a law firm and maintain a strong team, you have to learn to adapt, invest in your people, and unify your marketing, business development, and professional development departments. Above all, Amanda says you must treat your teams with respect and build relationships on a foundation of trust.
In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge Podcast, Elise Holtzman talks with Amanda Schneider, the Chief Marketing Officer at Epstein Becker Green, about her strategies for employee retention. Amanda shares how marketing, business, and professional development sectors can work together to motivate employees, why intentionality is key, and her tips for maintaining a strong culture — even in remote and hybrid workplaces.

So where can leaders (and aspiring leaders) turn to develop their skills, support their firms, and become the best leaders possible? According to John Remsen, the key characteristics that set outstanding leaders apart include a firm-first attitude, optimism, communication skills, and the ability to enact change.

Fortunately, legal marketing and website expert Robert Algeri is here to share his tips to avoid a website design train wreck. One of the biggest challenges in rebranding or updating your website design is getting everyone on board. Although not everyone has the same opinions, you want to ensure that decisions are made with the end user in mind, key stakeholders understand the process, and that no surprises are sprung on the firm. That's why Robert suggests putting together a small website and marketing committee, bringing skeptics into the project early on, and having one creative lead to avoid project disconnect. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge Podcast, Elise Holtzman is joined by Robert Algeri, a Co-founder of Great Jakes, to talk about strategies to succeed in your website design process. Robert walks through the mistakes many law firms make, how to get approval from stakeholders and other team members, and the best ways to work with web and brand design agencies.

The Great Trodmore Betting Hoax: If Only They Used Their Minds for Good
By Ray Wallin
The year is 1898. It is the middle of summer in the south of England, the Summer Bank Holiday which is one of the busiest racing and betting days in England. You've perused the paper and made your picks. The only thing left is to ring up your local bookie and place your bets, especially the ones at the new Trodmore Hunt meet, which was to begin on Aug. 1.
All well and good — that is, if the track you are betting actually exists.
As long as there have been sporting events, there have been hoaxes. As long as there have been hoaxes, people have fallen for them. "There is,'' as P. T. Barnum is often quoted, "a sucker born every minute."
There was the amazin' New York Met, Sidd Finch, a made-up April Fool's phenom who purportedly could throw a 168-mph fastball. Back in 1941, a couple of stockbrokers not only created a college football team (Plainfield Teachers' College) but an entire non-existent conference full of opponents. Among the stars was the outstanding sophomore running back, Johnny "The Celestial Comet" Chung, who, before things got too crazy, was ruled academically ineligible to continue the season.
Flash back to 43 years earlier, when a certain Mr. G Martin of St. Ives in Cornwall, purportedly the Clerk of the Course for the Trodmore Hunt Club, contacted the leading horse racing newspaper of the time, The Sportsman, with extensive information pertaining to the upcoming August Bank Holiday meeting at the Trodmore Racecourse.
Impressed with the quality of the card, the paper promised to publish the runners, riders and results. Unable to send anyone to cover the races, they agreed to let Mr. Martin telegraph in the results, after having accepted entry information, which had been sent over on what looked to be legitimate letterhead.
With the entries having been printed in the well-known paper, bookies hustled to take bets on the cards. The Sportsman would also publish the results the next day once Mr. Martin sent them in, and another racing paper, The Sporting Life, printed the results after seeing them in The Sportsman.
As no horse won at odds greater than 5-1, suspicions were not initially raised. And, if there had not been a discrepancy between the odds shown on the winner of the fourth race, Reaper, between the Sporting Life, which had Reaper as 5-2, and The Sportsman (which had him listed at 5-1), the hoax might have continued.
The typesetting error led people to start wondering; which odds were correct? Who was Reaper, anyway? Why haven't we heard of him before? Exactly where was Trodmore, other than somewhere near Cornwall? Both publications, in pursuit of the proper odds, attempted to contact the racecourse, which, of course, did not exist. Police were contacted, and, after an investigation, discovered that Trodmore was nowhere to be found on any map of Cornwall.
At the time, the hoax succeeded because the perpetrators were well-prepared. They had selected a national holiday where most businesses were closed for the day. The correspondence and meet information all looked very official, appearing on the proper letterhead and containing all the necessary detailed information. With all of the other races being run that day, the local papers were unable to send anyone to cover the meet and relied on the gracious Mr. Martin. Given the time of the races that day, bookies didn't have much time to question anything while hustling to collect all of their wagers. The perpetrators were never nabbed.
Did it stop anyone?
More than a century later, another hoax almost "got away with it." An Autotote employee, Chris Harn, electronically altered the wagering record of a bet made through the Catskill (New York) Off-Track Betting Corporation (OTB) account wagering system on the 2002 Breeders' Cup. Harn altered the selections after the first four races of the Ultra Pick Six had been run. Using an advance deposit wagering account set up with Catskill OTB by one of his accomplices, Harn placed wagers using one horse in each of the first four races with all runners in the two final races. After the first four races were complete, Harn corrected his selections based on the race results. Doing this ensured a winning wager regardless of the outcome of the final two races. Had Harn's betting scheme been successful, it would have netted more than $3 million. Instead, he and his accomplices — who held all six perfect tickets (6-of-6 winners) as well as 108 "consolation" tickets (5-of-6 winners) — were arrested, convicted and imprisoned.
And what does this all mean? Well, perhaps this: As long as there's a system, people will try to use it to their advantage.

Q: nginx-1.15.9 Variable support in "ssl_certificate" and "ssl_certificate_key" directives So nginx-1.15.9 was released very recently with the following change:

Feature: variables support in the "ssl_certificate" and
         "ssl_certificate_key" directives.

I setup an instance with multiple domains pointing to the following server block. I am using dehydrated to generate the certs automatically and in their own respective folders.
However, despite trying several variations and googling for various solutions, I am not having any success in having the variables in the "ssl_certificate" and "ssl_certificate_key" directives being recognised.

*

*Have verified that the certs are generated correctly (with fullchain.pem and privkey.pem)

*The error I'm getting from navigating to the https URL directly: Secure Connection Failed

*https works perfectly if I update the "$server_name" to the actual domain folder containing the certs

Appreciate if someone could take a look at my server block to identify what I'm doing wrong or point me in the correct direction. Thank you.
server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server;
    listen 443 ssl default_server;
    listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;

    root /var/www/html;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    server_name _;

    # ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /etc/dehydrated/certs/$server_name/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/dehydrated/certs/$server_name/privkey.pem;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
            try_files $uri =404;
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            include fastcgi_params;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny all;
    }
}

A: Make sure you are using $ssl_server_name instead of $server_name and that Nginx has read-access to your certificates.
I've made a full write up using LetsEncrypt. In your case it would look like this:
server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server;
    listen 443 ssl default_server;
    listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;

    root /var/www/html;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    server_name _;

    # ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /etc/dehydrated/certs/$ssl_server_name/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/dehydrated/certs/$ssl_server_name/privkey.pem;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
            try_files $uri =404;
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            include fastcgi_params;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny all;
    }
}

This Week @ Twin Cities Church: Did you miss last Sunday?
If you missed last Sunday, please go online and watch the entire service. I believe I was able to clearly identify, as much as I understand, the process God wants us to walk as we enter into discipleship or become apprentices of Jesus. He wants us to grow, and that growth is progressive and organic. God does His work from the inside out.
I gave you my definition of the Good Life, and here it is again. The Good Life is intimacy with God and others, a life of character and integrity, the ability to feel compassion for the hurting and helpless, and a life of purpose greater than self-absorption.
Over the coming weeks, we're going to see what a fruitful life looks like when we're connected to Jesus and as we embrace the power made possible through the resurrection. I am so challenged by Peter's declaration that I have "everything I need for living a Godly life." Wow! I want to know that life and the power of His resurrection in my life, and from your comments this week, I believe you do as well.
One thing to keep in mind as we come back Sunday and begin walking through Peter's course or curriculum for Christlikeness is this: These characteristics are not things we do – if it's meant to be it's up to me – instead they are a promise or vision of what we can become when we walk with Jesus.
Sunday is Mother's Day. Make sure to do something so to make you mom feel special. Please pray for all the single moms who need our encouragement and support. Also pray for all who feel a loss at Mother's Day either because their mom is no longer living or because she was not the best of moms.
We're also going to receive a special offering for Camp Scholarships this Sunday. We'll do it at the end of our services just like our benevolence offering. Please consider giving to help send as many kids to camp as possible for a potential life-changing experience with God.
