Most people nowadays are opting for a healthier lifestyle. This includes shifting to a better eating habit. This is most certainly a welcome development, especially with the proliferation of all sorts of diseases and conditions related to our increasingly sedentary lifestyle. Of course, while most people want to make a change in their diets, they simply have no idea how to go about it. Luckily, we have you covered. This article presents readers with a few simple tips on how they can start improving their daily eating habits.
If you are truly serious about your quest for good health, then you need to understand that the human body needs more than 40 different nutrients and vitamins. Needless to say, there is no single food item that can provide you with the complete nutritional requisites. That is why readers need to understand that the key to a healthy diet does not revolve a single meal. Instead, you should frame your diet as a series of balanced food choices over time. Try to avoid the temptation to buy saxenda online and follow a natural weight loss program.
For instance, if you had lunch that featured high levels of fat then perhaps you can offset it with a low-fat dinner. If you had a large steak meal today, then perhaps you can choose to have some fish tomorrow. The worst thing you can do is to overload on one particular food type. After all, everything in excess can be a bad thing. At the same time, you would do well to remember that such a diet will also leave your body needing other nutritional elements.
Nowadays, carbohydrates can get a lot of flak. It has even come to a point when people are choosing to cut it out of their diet altogether. However, as any trained nutritionist would tell you, that is just a disaster waiting to happen. Readers need to understand that carbs provide our body with our energy, so get off your recliner chair and get learning.
Carbohydrates serve as fuel for your body to burn. The most common sources of carbohydrates include everything from bread, rice, and cereals to pasta and potatoes. We highly recommend that you include at least one of these for every meal.
While concerns over carbohydrates are not entirely unfounded, readers should understand that the central concept one should observe here is moderation. This is because cutting out an entire food group from your diet, as one might expect, can lead to serious consequences. These types of diets are usually considered as fad diets, making them unsustainable and impractical.
Of course, as one would expect, a well-balanced diet would never be complete without the presence of fruits and vegetables on the table. Not only do they serve as vital sources of vitamins and minerals, but they also serve as major sources of fiber. We highly recommend eating them as snacks or as desserts. Just be sure to consume no less than 5 servings a day for optimal results.
These are just a few of the noteworthy tips you should try for a healthier diet. Make sure to keep them in mind.
Next Do Negative Ions Make you Healthy?


Today Jamie spoke in the Commons about extending votes to 16 and 17 year olds. They are trusted to join the army, get married and pay taxes yet the Government doesn't trust them to vote.
16 and 17 year olds in Scotland showed not only their awareness of voting responsibilities but also their desire to be involved in the process. Extending votes to 16 and 17 year olds is a crucial next step, especially given Brexit poses so many threats to the lives of young people.
They deserve their voice to be heard and it is time Ministers ensure every 16 and 17 year old across the UK has the same right to vote.
Responding to an Urgent Question on Clydesdale Bank in the House of Commons today Jamie Stone has called for a full inquiry into banks and their treatment of small and medium enterprises (SMEs).
This week Jamie talks Brexit, trains and plastic.
Earlier today Jamie asked the Prime Minister for a meeting as Highlands and Islands Enterprise report that 70% of businesses in the Highlands see Brexit as a direct risk to their future. A ministerial meeting with representatives from businesses and HIE would ensure the voices of those working in the Far North are heard.
Undoubtedly the best option for Scotland's rural economy is to remain in the single market, as part of the EU, something which the Lib Dems have been campaigning for since the referendum and something that Jamie will be making clear to ministers.
Earlier this week Jamie asked Jeremy Hunt what he is doing to ensure Russia does not stand in the way of a peaceful solution to the political crisis in Syria.
We must find a global solution to counter Daesh and to ensure a Syrian-led political transition.
This week Jamie asked the Cabinet Office what they are doing to aid the roll out of broadband to rural areas of the country like the Highlands. While the Scottish Government is responsible for the delivery of broadband in the Far North, they are currently failing his constituents.
When Jamie meets with the Minister he will stress the importance of ring-fenced money for broadband in the Highlands so that constituents are not treated as second class citizens when it comes to quality online access. Being disadvantaged simply because of where you live is plain wrong.
Rehabilitation is a vital component of our prison system. Jamie asked the Minister what his department is doing to encourage businesses to offer work placements as a part of rehabilitation programs.
Last week the Government announced that they would be condensing 170 HMRC offices to 13 regional hubs. The two Scottish ones will be in Edinburgh and Glasgow. This will be a huge distance for people living and working in Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross. With important ports such as Scrabster and Wick in the Far North it would surely make more sense to simply reopen the Wick tax office.
Last week Jamie asked the Minister whether the settlement from the treasury to the Scottish Government accurately reflects the needs of Scottish local government. The Highland Council faces sparse populations, huge distances and high costs of services and goods making it very difficult to run the council cheaply.

Farming Practices
Lon R. Frahm - Chief Executive Officer
Lon Frahm is the sixth generation in his family to lead Frahm Farmland, which has grown to 40,000 acres under his direction. He earned Bachelor's degrees in both business administration and agricultural economics, and an M.A.B (Masters in Agribusiness) from Kansas State University. Frahm has also completed several continuing education programs including Kansas Ag and Rural Leadership, Leadership Kansas, The Executive Program for Agricultural Producers through Texas A&M University and a Harvard Agribusiness seminar.
In 2009, he was named Farm Journal's Top Producer of the Year, which has since led to myriad speaking opportunities at educational and business venues. He's also served on such committees as High Plains Public Radio, Thomas County Historical Society, Groundwater Management District #4 and Citizens Medical Center.
His hobbies include cars, boats, motorcycles, landscaping, architecture, aviation, reading, music and travel both abroad and domestically.
David Denneler - Chief Operations Officer
As a high school student on a work-mentoring program, David Denneler began mowing lawns for Frahm's in 1980. In 1982, the young incumbent was hired as one of two full-time employees who shared the responsibilities of farming FFI's then 6,000 acres.
Denneler's path has been evolutionary, leading him through the ranks to Chief Operations Officer via a promotion from his previous role as Crop Production Manager. Throughout his tenure, his increasing involvement in the business has played a pivotal role in the expansion of FFI's land-holdings now exceeding 40,000 acres. While his daily activities used to entail participation in every aspect of the farm, he now focuses primarily on managing the business, which includes HR duties for a fluctuating staff of 10 to 15 and overseeing grain sales and purchases of seed and chemical. However, he still assists in other areas when needed, especially with regard to crop-scouting, bin maintenance and unloading trucks at harvest.
Denneler completed the The Executive Program for Agricultural Producers (TEPAP) at Texas A&M University, Austin, and the Management and Strategic Thinking (MAST) program through Kansas State University.
An avid car enthusiast, Denneler has restored a bevy of antiques including two 1953 Ford pickups, and several 1960- and '70-model Mustangs. He also enjoys carpentry, golf, hunting, camping and traveling with his wife, Jaton. They have two children and four grandchildren.
Chuck Moore - Chief Financial Officer/Consultant
A native of Scott City, Chuck Moore joined FFI in 2011 after a lengthy accounting career in both the public and private sectors. Moore's education began at Colby Community College where he earned an Associates Degree. He then graduated from Kansas State University with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Business Administration. In 1981, Moore earned his CPA license and has since completed the requisite 80 hours of continuing education to ensure his continued licensure every 2 years. Included in his array of responsibilities at FFI is payroll, human resources, general accounting and tax guidance.
Moore believes in the importance of community involvement and advancing his own education having served on the boards of Midwest Energy, Kiwanis, Pioneer Memorial Library and Colby Community College. He also completed The Executive Program for Agriculture Producers through Texas A&M University, Austin.
An avid cook and fan of ethnic foods, Moore aspires to visit both Italy and Spain to both partake of the local cuisine and experience first-hand, a MotoGP motorcycle race on the European circuit.
Dewey Augustine - Mechanic (Retired)
As the longest standing member of the team, Dewey Augustine retired in December 2020 after 44 years of dedicated service. But, he still remains an integral part of the crew and plans to occasionally drive truck and assist in other areas when needed.
His new full-time job consists of golfing and hunting. He also enjoys spending time with his family as well as riding his motorcycle and involvement with his church. Augustine is a community volunteer, a past school board member and a member of the Knights of Columbus. He is married to Pam and has a son and daughter as well as five grandchildren.
Robert Bell - Electrical Operations Manager/Safety Director
Garnering inspiration from his father who is both a farmer and electrical engineer, Robert Bell has an established career based on these two trades. Hired at FFI in 2019, Bell has been integral in the execution of several major projects, which include wiring the 3.8 million-bushel storage bins, several new buildings and the main office. As the resident safety expert, Bell educates existing employees and new hires on equipment, electrical and chemical safety. He also provides a pre-harvest safety class for the entire group, including custom cutters. Bell is OSHA-certified and has completed the Certified Employee Training Program.
An ardent inventor, he patented a specialized corn header called the CleanSweep Header System. In December 2020, Bell earned his private pilot's license with aspirations to restore and fly his father's plane—a 1976 Cessna 206.
He attended Barton County Community College and has taken electrical engineering classes at Kansas State University. A history and architecture enthusiast, he studies these topics in his spare time while also enjoying motorcycle riding and flying. He has two daughters and is married to Mindy.
Mike Brockelhurst - Logistics
Arriving from Harare, Zimbabwe, in May 2004, Mike Brockelhurst began his long-term FFI career as an intern. Within only 16 months, he was promoted to a full-time employee and has since established a permanent residence in Colby. His responsibilities run the gamut from bin maintenance, loading trucks and driving a truck at harvest to operating the planter; but, his primary role is to oversee scale house operations.
Having been raised on a 20,000 acre ranch that boasted the oldest established Hereford herd in Southern Africa, Brockelhurst adapted quickly to Kansas farm life. Topographically, the differences are considerably different from the rivers and mountains of Zimbabwe as is the wildlife given that elephants were prevalent on his family's ranch.
Brockelhurst earned a gemology degree from the Gemological Institute of America in 2000; and though he no longer practices professionally, he does assesses the occasional stone for friends. His ideal past-time is spending time with his daughter; but, he also enjoys reading, hunting and shooting skeet.
Baker Bugbee - Irrigation Manager
Aside from a few memories of riding in his grandfather's combine as a young boy, Baker Bugbee had no concrete affiliation with farming until he was offered a job as grain cart driver for the 2014 harvest at FFI. His interest piqued, Bugbee proved himself a quick study with a proclivity for farming and was hired as a full-time employee within the year. In his role as Irrigation Manager, he oversees (both physically and electronically) the operation of 74 sprinklers across the farm—a number that rises consistently in conjunction with FFI's expansion. Other duties inherent in Bugbee's role include driving truck, spraying, building maintenance, operating a combine and planting.
A highlight of Bugbee's career was speaking at the 2020 Top Producer conference in Chicago. His presentation (in collaboration with other FFI employees) was with regard to FFI's excellent retention record.
Bugbee lives on a farm with his girlfriend Jess and their two dogs Pedro and Raey. In his spare time, Bugbee partakes of spontaneous road trips, the most notable of which landed him at a luxury hunting lodge in Texas. As well, he is a self-purported foodie (sushi being a favorite) and also enjoys camping, hunting and playing guitar.
Isaac Evans - Field Agronomist
Starting as an apprentice in 2017, Isaac Evans maintained a part-time position at FFI throughout his college tenure at both Colby Community College, where he also coached tennis, and Kansas State University. After graduating from K-State with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Ag Economics (with a specialty in Agronomy) in 2021, he transitioned to a full-time position. In his evolving role, Evans contributes to all aspects of the farm's enterprises, including bin maintenance, driving truck and operating equipment as needed. But, his expertise lies in the agronomic aspects of farming, which involves assessing soil class and fertility as well as nutrient and weed science. Evans also contributes to the the financial assessments of chemical and seed purchases.
Evans earned two associate degrees from CCC in Science and Agribusiness and General Studies, and continues to study agriculture through continuing education programs offered to farm employees. A Scott City native, Evans spends much of his time off traveling with his family. He also golfs, skis, and enjoys the thrill of riding 4x4s in the mountains as well as mountain biking.
Keith Graham - Setup/Mechanic
At the age of six, Keith Graham began helping his Dad change brakes on trucks in addition to polishing wheels, washing rigs and assisting with general maintenance. This experiential mechanics and technical education continued throughout his life, and in 2017 he became the primary mechanic for his family's trucking company in Denver.
Graham joined FFI in 2019 after having been recruited from a local tire company in Colby, KS. His primary responsibility at the farm is to ensure the mechanical functionality of FFI's trucking fleet, but he also assists in other areas when needed, including combine operator, sprayer and grain cart operator.
In 2019, he was married to his wife Laura and has one son, Liam. His hobbies include hunting, shooting trap, touring museums and spending time with family. In addition to local relatives, Graham periodically visits family in New Zealand and during his Oceania travels has also visited both Australia and Fiji.
Samuel McKinney - Comptroller
An upbringing on a Northwestern Kansas farm is what spurred Samuel McKinney to pursue a career in the farming industry. In 2017, he earned a Bachelor's of Science degree in Agriculture Economics with an emphasis on finance from Kansas State University. After graduation, he worked as an accounting associate in Topeka before eventually migrating back to the farming industry as a Crop Insurance Agent for Labache AG. Presently employed at Labache, he educates farmers about their coverage options and offers analysis to ensure they select optimal coverage. Contracted by Frahm Farmland to perform accounting duties, McKinney keeps the books current, processes payroll, pays bills and performs other related administrative duties as needed. His hobbies include playing basketball and guitar, helping at his church and spending time with friends.
Jason Schielke - Information Technology
Born into a farming family, Jason Schielke's experience began in childhood driving tractor, building fence and caring for a cattle herd. Two years out of high school, Schielke began working for FFI in 1995 as one of three employees who shared the farm's workload.
Schielke's current role in IT stemmed from his self-taught acumen of the newest technological advances in communications and farming practices. An avid reader and researcher, he's managed a variety of notable projects, including the installation of fiber optic Internet for the entire farm, networks in all the buildings and assessing new technology with regard to chemicals, seeds and farm operations software (mapping, auto-steer, computers, etc.) Other endeavors with which he's been involved include dirt work for new buildings, plumbing, designing a tender truck loading system and installing a heated floor system. As well, Schielke operates a combine during harvest.
He and his wife, Suzanne, live on a farm outside of Colby with their two children, Alizah and Ames. On days off, Schielke enjoys spending time with his kids, tinkering with his sports car, home construction projects and fishing.
Brian Weis - Construction/Maintenance
Though he was hired full time in 2013, Brian Weis' affiliation with FFI began in 2001 when he began driving grain cart and eventually, a truck, for harvest. Carpentry and electrical work are his specialties, but his contributions at the farm run the gamut from plumbing and running concrete to dirt work, painting, welding and tile work. Notable projects he's completed at the farm include the Scale House Basement renovation, building a two-story room within the new Spray Building and creating from scratch both kitchens at Headquarters. He still drives truck during harvest, but he's officially retired from the grain cart.
Some of Weis' hobbies and personal projects include building a 5-bedroom home for his family, motorcycle riding, restoring a 1970 Fastback Mustang and a 1964 Ford Falcon, which he also drag races. Weis is married to Josie and has two children. As well, he earned a degree in Electronics from Goodland Vocational Technical College in 1985.
Christian Wilson - Field Operations/Agronomy
In the summer of 2014, Christian Wilson began working part-time at Frahm's under the aegis of Pioneer Seed as an intern and crop scout. He transitioned to a full-time FFI employee in 2015 after completing his Agribusiness undergraduate degree at Fort Hays State University. While Wilson's initial responsibilities were expansive, including spraying, aerial crop-scouting, sampling soil, operating a combine at harvest and helping out wherever needed, they've since evolved giving him the opportunity to work primarily with the farm's business endeavors. Among his present responsibilities are assessing the economics of chemical and seed pricing and participating in a grain-marketing committee.
Wilson enrolled in Kansas State University's MAB program (an agribusiness platform based on an MBA) in 2019 with his 2021 graduation contingent upon the completion of his thesis on modeling regional corn basis and how the effects of historical supply and demand factors have impacted Western Kansas producers.
His spare time is spent training his bird-dog, Ruby; fishing; hunting and golfing. He and his wife Sarah also enjoy traveling and visiting friends in Colorado and Montana.
Wolf, Ph.D - Sr. VP of Pest Control and Ecology
When Wolf wandered into Lon's front yard in 2013, he was but a feral kitten oblivious to the fruitful career at FFI that would soon emerge. Wolf was savvy and accomplished beyond his four months, possessing keen leadership skills, innate talents and a bite that rivaled a crocodile. Dedicating himself to the ongoing cultivation of Wolf's unlimited potential, Lon immediately catapulted the young feline through the corporate ranks to Manager of Rodent Annihilation—a role created specifically for FFI's newest preeminent member.
Wolf's attention to detail and loyalty to FFI's evolution earned him a promotion in 2019 to Sr. VP of Pest Control and Ecology, which has allowed him to delegate the department's day-to-day operations to his team. "I've always enjoyed the hunt," said Wolf, "but, the taste of mus musculus has never appealed to me. In spite of what humans think, said creatures really don't taste like chicken, they just taste like mice."
In his new role, he'll be performing revolutionary studies critical to his burgeoning ecology role on the potential for harmonious relationships between rodents and human farm workers. A former Rhodes Scholar and MENSA member, Wolf graduated in 2016 from Kansas State University with a Bachelor's of Science in Human Mind Control and a Doctorate in Stalking from Feline Polytechnical Institute in 2020. His spare time is scant, but upon those rare occasions, he enjoys hypnotizing the less intelligent, studying philosophy and partaking of fine French wines.
Steeped in history dating back to the 1800s, today's Frahm Farmland is the product of six generations of farmers dedicated to its success.
In the 1930s, Lon Frahm's great grandfather moved from Nebraska to Thomas County to work as a school teacher. When the school could no longer afford to pay him, he began farming full-time for his father-in-law. Progressive for the time, he owned the first combine in the area, was the first to incorporate summer fallow practices and formed joint ventures with outside investors.
In the midst of the devastating Dust Bowl, the family's farm suffered additional hardship when a fire incinerated its state-of-the-art machine shop and all of the equipment in it. Yet, the Frahm farm continued to survive even through a bankruptcy that never resulted in foreclosure. By the 1950s, the farm had accumulated several thousand acres dedicated to dryland wheat, which was a significant portion at the time.
When the Frahm family (Lon's parents) moved to the farm in 1971, his father drilled the first of several irrigation wells throughout 25 quarters and planted the farm's first corn crop. It was also the year that Frahm Farmland became incorporated.
By 1986, Lon had graduated from Kansas State University and was working for the family farm at the time of his father's sudden passing. From that point he was cast into the role of manager for the 6,000-acre operation.
Since that time, Frahm Farmland has consistently grown in size and evolved with the times, including the implementation of no-till practices in 1999 and the consistent adoption of the newest technologies. With present land-holdings at 40,000 acres, Frahm Farmland has become one of the most successful farming organizations in Northwestern Kansas.

On 10 Feb 1955, DV reported that Paramount Pictures had purchased The Sons of Katie Elder, a William H. Wright screenplay based on a story by Talbot Jennings, to begin development under producer Samuel J. Briskin. That summer, the 4 Aug 1955 DV named John Sturges as director, and the 25 Aug 1955 edition indicated that Frank Burt had assumed scripting duties. A 9 Nov 1955 DV brief revealed that Alan Ladd had agreed to star, thereby fulfilling a remaining commitment to Paramount.
Early the next year, the 12 Jan 1956 DV announced that Burt had been replaced by Noel Langley, but further work was stalled until Aug, as the 17 Feb 1956 DV claimed Paramount granted Ladd permission to complete another project for his own production company in association with Warner Bros. Pictures. While Harry Essex was hired to continue working on the script, items in the 29 Jun 1956 and 3 Jul 1956 DV revealed that Ladd ultimately paid Paramount $135,000 to be released from his contract, and the project was subsequently shelved by the studio.
Three years later, Paramount resumed its plans with new producer Hal B. Wallis. The 23 Nov 1959 DV speculated that Dean Martin may star opposite James Stewart, and a 25 Feb 1960 DV brief announced that Wallis had signed singer Rod Lauren to make his screen debut. After a few months of planning, however, the 22 Aug 1960 issue relayed Wallis's decision to put The Sons of Katie Elder on hold once again, citing the recent influx of Western genre pictures.
Although he intended to return to the project after a year, no new developments were made until 1964, when the 25 May 1964 LAT revealed that Allan Weiss was working on yet another draft of the screenplay. Wallis reopened discussions with Dean Martin, and a 9 Jul 1964 DV news story confirmed the casting of John Wayne. The 11 Sep 1964 DV indicated that Wallis approached Van Heflin for a role, while a 22 Sep 1964 DV brief revealed that Tommy Kirk was originally selected to play "Bud Elder" before he was replaced by Michael Anderson, Jr.
On 16 Sep 1964, John Wayne was admitted to the hospital for what DV claimed was tendon surgery for an aggravated ankle injury. Wayne confessed this was a cover, however, when he told the 30 Dec 1964 LAT that he actually underwent a procedure to remove a malignancy from his lung, and was afraid that the news would damage his professional image. The 2 Oct 1964 DV reported that Wayne was approved to return to work after recuperating in intensive care, but shooting was further delayed until Jan 1965 to allow him a full recovery while director Henry Hathaway consulted with William Bowers about additional script rewrites.
After nearly ten years of development, principal photography finally got underway on 5 Jan 1965, as indicated by an 8 Jan 1965 DV production chart. Filming took place on locations in Durango and Mexico City, Mexico, while additional sources claimed some work was completed in the Sierra Madre Occidental mountain range in the western part of the country. A 17 Feb 1965 DV article about the Mexican film industry revealed that the production hired fifty-five local crewmembers, fifty laborers, and two construction crews comprising of a total of forty men. Gabriel Torres served as the unit's still photographer, while an item in the 12 Feb 1965 DV stated that Jose Villa, son of Mexican Revolutionary Pancho Villa, performed as a stunt double for Earl Holliman. The previous day's DV also revealed that Dean Martin's close friend, Mack Gray, accompanied the production using a Mexican work permit that designated him as Martin's "recording manager."
Photography was completed by early spring, as suggested by a 31 Mar 1965 DV brief reporting Hathaway's contributions to the editing process. The 21 Apr 1965 Var claimed that United Artists intended to reuse Paramount's sets in Durango for a production titled 29 to Duell, but plans were cancelled when area villagers looted the property.
Although not featured in the film itself, composer Elmer Bernstein wrote a pop song that borrowed the film's title, which was performed and released by Johnny Cash in 1965.
According to a local first-week box-office report in the 29 Jun 1965 DV, The Sons of Katie Elder had already opened for a regular engagement at the Roosevelt Theatre in Chicago, IL. By 4 Aug 1965, Var noted that the film had since enjoyed strong earnings from its few "scattered playdates" in Denver, CO; San Francisco, CA; and Washington, D.C. Regular screenings began in New York City on 25 Aug 1965, and at several Los Angeles, CA, area theaters and drive-ins on 1 Sep 1965.

Katie Elder's four sons return to Clearwater, Texas, for her funeral. John, the eldest, is a notorious gunslinger, and of the four, only Bud, who has been going to college, shows signs of being responsible. The brothers learn that Pa Elder supposedly got drunk and gambled away the family ranch and was killed on the same night. They decide to investigate the peculiar circumstances and unearth the truth, despite warnings from the sheriff to stay out of trouble. Morgan Hastings and his son Dave had been the only witnesses to the events. In order to protect themselves, the Hastings kill the sheriff, and the Elder brothers, whose reputations were poor to begin with, are blamed. The deputy sheriff swears in a group of Hastings' men to take the Elders to Laredo, unaware that they have been ordered to slaughter the Elders. In the gunfight that ensues, Matt Elder and the deputy sheriff are killed; and those of Hastings' men who escape return to tell that they were ambushed by John Elder's gang.

National Post report indicates breach of trust charge will be withdrawn.
In a stunning report, the National Post says a source has told them the Trudeau government is going to drop their case against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman.
Here's a key excerpt:
"The federal government is expected to pull the plug on its prosecution of Vice-Admiral Mark Norman for alleged breach of trust, the National Post has learned.
The case is back in court on Wednesday for what was to have been a brief scheduled update on the progress of the government's efforts at disclosing documents to Norman's defence team.
Sources have confirmed that the prosecution will withdraw the charge instead.
The tip-off was an unusual alert from the Public Prosecution Service of Canada sent late Tuesday to reporters who have been following the case.
"The Public Prosecution of Canada would like to advise you that there is a scheduled appearance May 8, 2019 at 10:00 am in courtroom # 11 in the Mark Norman prosecution. You may wish to attend," said the prosecution's media advisory released at 6:52 p.m. ET."
It would be a shocking turn of events in what many Canadians – myself included – viewed as a politically motivated and corrupt attempt by the Trudeau Liberals to punish Mark Norman in an effort to cover-up their own wrongdoing.
That perception had been boosted by the fact that while the government pays the legal bills of most individuals facing trial in similar circumstances, they refused to pay for Norman's.
Additionally, the government withheld documents crucial to his defence, and even when massive troves of documents relating to the case – including communications with the PM – were made 'available' to Norman's defence team, they were almost entirely redacted.
Notably, "Among the documents the defence was seeking was a 60-page memo from then Privy Council Clerk Michael Wernick to Trudeau that had been entirely blacked out."
Many had also speculated that the Norman case would end up revealing political interference from the Trudeau government in the legal system that far exceeded what appears to have happened with SNC-Lavalin. By dropping the case, the Trudeau Liberals would avoid that potentially devastating trial from occurring during the election campaign.
This would be a stunning vindication for Vice-Admiral Mark Norman, who would be entirely justified in suing the federal government in retaliation for having his reputation, career, and name unfairly dragged through the mud. After years of service to Canada, Vice-Admiral Norman has been treated horribly by the federal government, and that injustice must be corrected.
And to make that happen, there must be a full investigation into why the charges were brought in the first place, and those responsible for the attack against Norman must be held accountable and punished.

I hope they re-pay Vice Admiral Mark Norman's costs in this court case.
Reply to Rudy
Trudeau has no right to drag this man's reputation through the mud. Trudeau and all liberals no longer hold Canadians' interest before their own selfish interests
Sickening abuse of power. Most corrupt government this country has ever seen. Third world is a step up from these criminals.
Jim Berryhill
People need to band together and create a fund to pay for his legal costs at suing the Liberal government now . NO WAY should the Liberals be able to get away with silencing the truth that would have come out against them IF the trial had gone ahead
Bradley Holdner
Is it true that this case has been stayed? As in they can still prosecute after the election, man it's hard to tolerate this corruption…
Poor guy has had to stress over this and put though hell by our dictator I hope he gets 10.5 million for the harassment he suffered…blatant bullying when our dictator doesnt get his way someone needs to hold him accoutable
RonP
If, in fact, the PCO consulted with the PPSC as alleged by the Sun's Kinsella, how can we trust that that PPSC "independently" decided to stay the charge? It's entirely too convenient for the Government, entering an election, to be saved from the embarrassment of explaining another judicial obstruction "indiscretion'. If the PPSC is complicit with the PCO, it means we have a major problem with our democracy. Canadians, and the Press have to ensure that this isn't allowed to be dropped.
Dave Allsopp
Six months of corrupt Trudeau left!
Now, how do we stop this emotionally immature, morally bereft man-child from repeating this sort of behaviour repeatedly as he sees himself failing and strikes out at other Canadian citizens of all types to blame for his incompetence?
Let's understand this! It's been said before that he is a sociopath but in my mind it is more serious.
This man is a psycopath!
His history over the past years proves it!

Worth Your Salt?
Posted on November 16, 2015 by Jacob Critcher
Large rock-salt crystals
For thousands of years it has been known as a panacea (a solution or remedy for all difficulties or diseases).
Alchemists called it the fifth element besides water, earth, air and, fire because its qualities were comparable only to ether, the actual fifth element.
2000 years ago it was used as money- it had the same value. Most don't know, the very word salary, comes from this.
It's said this substance is what so draws us to the ocean- as if our subconscious mind instinctively wants to return to the specific vibrational state of the ocean from which we once emerged.
What I'm talking about today, is so vital, so absolutely necessary; that our very survival depends on it.
But not just our survival- in fact, our very thoughts, are made of this valuable resource.
Just how valuable is this resource? You might be surprised of its superpower/supernatural abilities, once I tell you that it is a substance that you most likely use every day, sometimes without knowing, and that you probably have a bulk stash of it in your kitchen pantry.
Ok, ok, enough with the teasing, let's reveal this everyday resource, so we can breakdown its divine importance- the topic today is SALT.
Chemical make up of salt
Salt, is made up of sodium and chlorine. Together they are called Sodium chloride (Na Cl). Sodium chloride is one of the 12 daily essential minerals. Pure salt consists of these elements sodium and chlorine. Its mineral name is halite.
Sodium is a soft positive charged metal where chlorine is a negative charged gas that becomes a liquid when put under pressure.
Chlorine is a gas/liquid but somehow when the earth was formed the chlorine became a solid with the sodium and trace minerals.
Table salt is a chemically simple combination of two components, sodium and chlorine. The basic components of salt are, by themselves, potentially dangerous. Sodium will ignite immediately if it comes into contact with water, and chlorine is poisonous if ingested. In combination, though, the two elements form sodium chloride, commonly known as salt. Salt is essential. Each of us contain from four to eight ounces of salt. In the body, salt is as important to humans as water or air.
First off, many people believe that salt is harmful to the human body, while the truth is we cannot live without salt (sodium chloride). From salt the body makes hydrochloric acid which is one of the essential digestive fluids. There is not enough natural salt in our foods, so we must supplement our diet. When salt is withheld, weakness and sickness follow. Natural, unprocessed salt can even dissolve damaging calcium deposits in the body.
Science and medicine have tried to define the precise roles of salt in the healthy and diseased human organism. Blood, sweat, and tears all contain salt, and both the skin and the eyes are protected from infectious germs by the anti-bacterial effect of salt. When salt is added to a liquid, particles with opposite charges are formed: a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion. Which leads me to my next point.
Most people know that the brain uses electricity to operate. However, what most people do not realize is that the electricity produced by the brain is different from the one produced by batteries or the companies that provide electricity to your home.
The brain uses a slightly different system to generate and propagate electricity.
Matter can be divided into basic elements called atoms. Calcium, sodium, potassium and chlorine are examples of atoms.
Table salt contains mostly sodium chloride, that is a sodium (Na) and a chloride (Cl) atom.
Now, if the two atoms are to be held together, each atom carries a charge (sodium has a positive charge and chloride has a negative charge).
Since each atom has an opposite charge, they attract each other, much like the poles of two magnets.
However, the forces that attract these two atoms are weak so that when you put the salt in an aquarium filled with water, atoms dissociate to form ions, a positively charged sodium (Na +) and a negatively charged chloride (Cl-).
The atoms then diffuse so as to be uniformly distributed in the aquarium.
It must be noted that although the atoms of the salt are dissociated and they are charged, the aquarium is electrically neutral (as much positive charges as negative charges).
Adding other specific components in this tank (potassium chloride (K + and Cl-), magnesium chloride (Mg 2 + and 2Cl-), glucose (sugar), calcium chloride (2Cl- and Ca2 +), sodium bicarbonate (Na + and HOCOO-), proteins and oxygen) will result in a uniform distribution of these constituents in the aquarium.
We then get a liquid that roughly reconstitutes the fluid that our neurons bathe in (the cerebral-spinal fluid).
We all spent approximately 9 months in our mothers belly floating in salt water (amniotic fluid).
Basically, every cell in our body has an ocean of fresh water inside the cell and an ocean of salt water outside the cell. Good health depends on a most delicate balance of the water between these two oceans.
Salt forces water to stay in the outside ocean of water of the cell (osmotic retention) and potassium holds water in the inside ocean of water of the cell.
When the body is low on water (you are not drinking enough) it will increase the volume of salty water in the outside ocean of the cell.
Through a special mechanism, a hormone (vasopressin) is released that can filter out the salt from the outside ocean and inject some fresh water into the center ocean as needed to maintain the delicate balance.
Salt is "fuel" for nerves. Streams of positively and negatively charged ions send impulses to nerve fibers. A muscle cell will only contract if an impulse reaches it. Nerve impulses are partly propelled by co-ordinated changes in charged particles.
Actually, the elements within the salt, what we call minerals, are too only energy potentials, or electrical charges. Remember, everything in the universe is made of Energy – Information – Frequency Patterns – Life Force – Consciousness. And all these words describe the same "thing". If all there is is energy, then we can now understand the relationship of this energy to the food we eat and to our own physical body, made also of the same energy.
The body is like a living battery, always needing recharging. The charging comes from the living food. This doesn't mean that you need to eat only raw food yourself. But recognize that when you eat food that is "dead", it's dead because the body cannot recognize the Energy – Information it requires. Salt has a very unique property. In contrast to all other crystalline structures, the atomic structure of salt is not molecular, but electrical. This is what makes it so transformable. It even accesses our brain directly, forming our very thoughts. Put simply, No Thoughts, No Actions, Without Salt.
Even the simplest processes in our body need salt, or its inherent elements (ionized energy). Our nervous system is really a sophisticated energy network. Remember, energy and information are two terms used to describe the same thing.
It transmits stimulation that is recorded via sensory input (all of our senses are actually energy receptors, our eyes receive waves of energy, information in the form of light frequencies, our ears receive sound frequencies or patterns of energy and our nose senses odors, also electrical charges in the atmosphere) Everything in the universe works by the fundamental principles of energy! Anyway, these sensory inputs that travel to our brain are passed on to our muscles in order for them to react to the respective stimuli (electrical current).
An electric potential occurs on the membrane wall of a cell when the positively charged potassium ions leave the cells and the positively charged sodium ions cannot enter due to their size. The outside becomes positively charged and the inside, negatively charged. When a nerve cell is stimulated, its membrane suddenly becomes polar opposite and is permeable for the sodium ions, allowing the electrical charge to enter. Without the elements of potassium and sodium is salt, none of this is possible. Not even a single thought, let alone an action, is possible without their presence. First comes the thought, a wave of energy received in the brain. This thought is nothing more than an electromagnetic frequency. The salt is responsible for enabling this frequency to transmit commands to the muscles and organs.
Without salt, civilizations would never have thrived, and technology would be stuck in the Stone Age. It launched wars and sparked revolutions all because humans can't survive without it.
If we examine the universe around us, we'll find that everything is made from the same thing. The terms or words we use to describe this "thing" vary according to our individual perceptions and knowledge. What a physical scientist refers to as energy or frequency pattern is exactly the same as a biophysicist means when he/she uses the term life-force or information. A person of religious views would call it God and a quantum physicist or metaphysical practitioner might use the term consciousness. All are synonymous. All refer to the same "thing." Remember, there's only one thing that exists! Call it by whatever name you like.
At the end of the day, it's all about Energy – Life Force – Consciousness. Each of these terms can be used to describe the hidden potential that is locked within the crystalline structure of salt and only waiting to be released.

Learn to kitesurf with Kiteboarding Oman! Fascinated by the cultural mix and the fabulous conditions for our sport we decided to open the first internationally approved kite centre in Oman. Since 2007, we offer professional kite lessons and service at the most beautiful kite spots of the Sultanate.
In 2007, the German Alexander Friesl opened in a cooeration with Oman World Tourism the first VDWS-certified kiteboarding school in Middle East, from 2010 on we have also been schooling on the beautiful island of Masirah, east of the Omani mainland. We visit other spots, such as Al Jazir, Bar al Hickman or Aseelah Beach, on request.
From the beginning, our success was based upon internationally recognised schooling standards that guarantee an up-to-date and high-level education. To keep our standards, we are member of the German association of watersports schools (VDWS). With Issa Salim Al Aamri and Anisa Al Raissi, we successfully educated the first Omani kite instructors. By now, Issa even is Red Bull Teamrider and travels around the world for kiteboarding competitions.
We use latest kiting equipment, supported by RRD – Roberto Ricci Designs and FLYSURFER. Especially in light wind conditions, FLYSURFER Kites guarantee a best possible performance even at almost no wind. From 6 knots onwards, it provides a fine kiteboarding experience while a conventional kite system will not allow going onto the water. By this your best possible kiteboarding experience is guaranteed even with low wind conditions – the time you spend on the water will be maximized and boosts your learning curve. Our schooling material is constantly renewed and modernized. This is the only way for us to provide ultimate safety-standards for your kiteboarding experience.
We would love to welcome you at one of our water sports centres and show you a beautiful sport in a breathtaking country!

Jordan Peterson on Scotland's pro-life bans, becoming a global hate figure, and the Bible's importance to society
In the first of a two-part series, Richard Purden speaks to the academic who caught the interest of the Catholic world in 2018, and gets his opinion on Scottish issues and the truth of the Bible
The New York Times described acclaimed psychologist Jordan B Peterson as 'the most influential public intellectual in the western world right now.' Bishop Robert Barron, the US evangelising sensation, described him as someone who could mentor young people and tell them to 'stand up straight and act like heroes.'
During a highly successful European tour he appeared in Glasgow and Edinburgh on the back of the No1 international bestseller 12 Rules For Life: An Antidote to Chaos.
Backstage at Edinburgh's Playhouse Theatre he sat down to discuss a number of issues affecting Catholics today. From the banning of pro-life groups accessing funds at Scottish universities to concerns about changes in the school curriculum regarding LGBT history, many voices suggest that a wider debate is necessary.
"The problem with standing for something, say the utility of a traditional intact heterosexual family, is that it is easy for people to read that as standing against something else," Dr Peterson said.
"It is in fact very difficult to have an ideal without having a judgement. So many people, who perhaps have nothing better to do now, have made it their business to obliterate anything that smacks of differentiation and consider it discrimination.
"We don't know in our society how to put something forward as a positive virtue without being accused of being discriminatory, because if you say that one thing is good or better you imply that something else is bad or worse.
"The counter problem is that if you get rid of all the stations between good and better then you have no goals. That's no solution; it's a catastrophe."
TIE concerns
Both secular and Christian parents have voiced some concerns this year about what will be taught to school children in the future regarding LGBT lessons, following the implementation of the successful TIE campaign on inclusive education.
The recent actions of the Scottish Government have left some considering why there has been little or no room for an exchange of views before the action was taken.
"I think we are probably near the point where the state should get out of children's sex education because there is no cultural consent as to what it should be, so I think that should devolve back to the family," Dr Peterson said.
"Not that it would be a perfect solution but state-mandated sex education hasn't been perfect either because it's become so contaminated with ideology.
"I think the schools should just leave it be. If your children are being taught by ideologues then you should pull them out of the classes because there is no excuse for it.
"The idea that in the last five years we've discovered what gender really is, is the height of absurdity. I do think that the fundamental consequence is that it's going to confuse far more kids than it is going to help."
A ban on pro-life groups at Strathclyde University was dropped recently after those in opposition successfully fought the decision. In France, pro-life groups now face heavy fines and prison for posting their views online. "That's just beyond belief to me whether you are pro-life or pro-choice," Dr Peterson said. "If you think the pro-life voice should be silenced there is something seriously wrong with you. I don't care what you say about the abortion debate, there is something to be said on both sides at minimum so to stifle that debate is part of this totalitarian leftism that I think is reprehensible and dangerous."
Dr Peterson also criticised the term "White Privilege" calling it "an appalling concept". Many in Scotland's Irish Catholic community which formed out famine and poverty understandably find the now popular term a difficult one. "Everyone should have a problem with that term" says Peterson who suggests 'it's become very popular with people using it for political purposes but there is no evidence whatsoever that it measures anything that is valid anymore than any other set of opinions does.'
"There are all sorts of things that make people privileged and under privileged, to attribute everything that someone has managed to cobble together in their life to some unfair advantage they garnered because of their race is an absolutely appalling intellectual move in my estimation," he said.
"It certainly doesn't take into account all the other multitudinous factors that are relevant to someone's failure or success, it begs the question that people are disadvantaged or privileged in arbitrary ways in all sorts of manners. It's irrational in some sense about our position of birth, you accrue whatever set of biological and socio advantages or disadvantages you have and then you are set forth into the world.
"You make the best of the advantages and then if you have any sense you manifest a profound gratitude for them and multiply them to do the best for you, your family and your culture — that's how you pay for your privilege. To be pilloried, accused and indicted is to make you subject to a kind of crime that, first of all, you didn't voluntarily commit and second, there is no possible way you could ever pay for it. That is the purpose behind the concept."
'Fascist' accusations
The Canadian psychology professor has become a hate figure for some on the political Left, particularly online, with accusations flung at him of being a 'fascist.' How does he manage these kinds of insults?
"If you stand up against the radical left—which puts you in a category that consists of 92 per cent of the population, according to the latest data—then you could hypothetically occupy any position on the political spectrum from moderate left to extreme right.
"It's very convenient for the radical leftists to pillory you to 'extreme right,' and its very convenient for radical leftists so they don't have to contend with you and can blacken your name.
"I had 200 lectures online which basically constituted everything I had said of substance since 1993 and people were welcome to comb through and find anything that marked me out as radically right wing.
"There isn't anything. Quite the contrary. I've lectured students for decades on the dangers of fascism, at least as much as the dangers of the radical left, so mostly I make that case and let the public decide."
Career challenges
The 55-year-old gained wider public attention in 2016 with his self-help style YouTube videos. Taking on political correctness has won him allies such as American Catholic academic and social critic Camille Paglia who described Dr Peterson as 'the most important and influential Canadian thinker since Marshall McLuhan.'
He admits there have been challenges in taking certain arguments into the mainstream which caused a 'threat' to his job and his occupations.'
"My university career was definitely threatened and my clinical practice, which would've gone by the wayside as the next blow," he said.
"Also my reputation and to some degree, secondarily, the stability of my family and my own stability [was threatened], because that is a lot of pressure, and that was the potential price.
"My life has changed dramatically as a consequence of all this. It's not a price but more like a transformation, and there have been a tremendous number of benefits. Right now I am doing quite well. My health seems to have returned although it was not good for a couple of years, which is quite a long time, but it's much better now."
Described by some as a 'rock star psychologist,' he has spent most of this year touring the globe. Already more dates are being added for 2019.
"This lecture tour is spectacularly successful and that is very gratifying. I really enjoy doing it and the audiences are extremely welcoming.
"I believe the vast majority come because they are trying to sort out their lives, that is what they tell me and it's working; that is a wonderful thing. It's a good substitute for my clinical practice—it's quite the adventure."
12 Rules For Life often refers to Biblical stories as a way of helping readers move on from debilitating problems and helping them steer towards self-development and personal growth. The author explains why eternal truths have been vital in directing people towards more practical solutions.
"I believe that human cognition is nested inside a story—we think in stories and that is incontrovertible," he said.
"We tend to see the world as if it is personified; it manifests itself in characters. Our personal and cognitive worldview of our culture is embedded in a narrative—in the Biblical corpus.
"It's not so much that I think it's important; it's more that it sits at the bottom of our culture. There is no way of understanding the culture, our history and who we are in any deep sense without understanding the Biblical stories.
"That does not mean that you have to be a religious believer, although there are many ways of being a religious believer.
"At the bottom of it all are the Biblical stories, on top of that are layers of literature and philosophy, then an offshoot of science and the development of economics, politics, architecture and all of the things that we have managed to create—but right at the base are the Biblical stories.
It turns out that the most important cultural artefact of the last 4,000 years is not a city or Empire—it's a book. That's a long time for something to last. It has a power that is not easily dispensed with and if you do dispense with it then something else rushes in to take its place which is usually a very bad version of something similar."
