More help sought by Illinois tourism, hotels
Parts of industry may not fully recover until 2024
April 11, 2021 Updated: April 14, 2021 11:11 a.m.
A riverfront sculpture welcomes guests to Grafton. Last week leaders from the state's tourism and hospitality industry asked for additional support and guidance, with some estimating the Illinois hotel industry may not see a full recovery until 2024.
SPRINGFIELD — Leaders from the state's tourism and hospitality industry want more support and reopening guidance.
Michael Jacobson, President and CEO of the Illinois Hotel and Lodging Association, told the House Tourism Committee last week that hotels have "been among the hardest hit" segment of the economy due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and that the industry may not see a full recovery until 2024 at the earliest.
"The situation is certainly looking encouraging, but there's still a lot of work to do in order for the hotel and tourism industry to fully recover," Jacobson said. "This is not going to be a recovery in one or two years, it's going to be a several-year process."
Jacobson said Illinois hotels suffered a loss of $3.5 billion in revenue and that over 21,000 hotel employees were laid off as a result of the pandemic over the past year. He said allowing events and gatherings to resume in a safe manner as soon as possible — and directing federal support dollars to hotels and businesses most impacted by the pandemic — would be key to revitalizing that segment of the economy, which generates billions of dollars in revenue for the state every year.
"Besides keeping our employees and guests healthy and safe, our top priority is simple, getting hotel workers back to work. Our hotels want to get back up and running, but need direct financial support in the short term," Jacobson said.
Jacobson and industry leaders also said passing limited COVID-19 liability protections for businesses would help hotels and businesses to work toward a full recovery.
However, even with a reopening plan in place, industry leaders said that many questions remain for businesses across the state.
Rob Karr, President and CEO of the Illinois Retail Merchants Association, said additional guidance from the state on reopening guidelines is needed for struggling businesses to get back on their feet. He said questions remain over how businesses would effectively enforce capacity guidelines as outlined under the plan.
"We need to maximize our businesses," Karr said. "The theory that you're open and you're doing okay is just not accurate. No one's businesses were built to survive at 50 percent or even 75 percent occupancy."
Under guidelines set forth in the state's bridge phase, vaccinated individuals would not count against a business or venue's capacity restrictions, but Karr questioned how businesses or local authorities would be able to enforce those restrictions.
"Currently, the guidance from the state is businesses each on their own are required to figure out how to prove up whether somebody is fully vaccinated. Respectfully, that's untenable," Karr added.
Jacobson said a possible alternative would be to base capacity guidelines and mitigations on hospitalization utilization rather than case positivity as more of the state's population is vaccinated.
"This is something that we've seen a big shift in the governor and (Illinois Department of Public Health's) approach in recent weeks, and we are supportive of," Jacobson said.
Derek Blaida of the Illinois Restaurant Association echoed similar concerns for the state's food service industry. Blaida said 20 percent of Illinois restaurants are expected to close permanently and that over 124,000 food service jobs have been lost as a result of the pandemic.
"We need to keep building on pragmatic approaches to reopening regulations, so we can plan for and attract conventions, annual events, festivals and more back to our state," Blaida said. "Our world class restaurants, hotels and event venues cannot lose another summer due to regulations and occupancy caps that are just too strict."
"We just want to be steadily moving forward with incremental changes so restaurants can keep their doors open, keep serving communities, and keep people employed," he added.

What the Best can you reheat breast milk after heating Pros Do (and You Should Too)
By Yash
This is a question I get asked a lot. I like to think that I'm a self-aware person. Although I'm not sure if that stems from my self-awareness, or simply the fact that I'm a mom.
Breast milk is heated with electricity to make it last longer, so it can actually be reheated. Since breast milk contains a high-quality protein, it's also great for diabetics. I have been able to quickly make a lot of milk from heated milk. I can also use it to make my own baby food.
Breast milk is also great for diabetics (for many reasons). It's also a great source of protein. So you can make a whole lot of protein out of your milk just by heating it, and it's also good for diabetics.
Breast milk is one of the best tasting things I have ever had. If you're not a diabetic, it's also great for diabetics for many reasons, including that it contains high-quality protein. It's great for diabetics. And it can also be reheated, which is an amazing thing. It's also great for diabetics.
There are several foods that would be great for diabetics in general, but they also contain high levels of glucose, which is why they'll cause you to overeat. Breast milk, however, has about 10 grams of glucose per serving, which is much less than other foods with glucose, such as milk, yogurt, or cheese. Some of the milk produced by breast-feeding moms has higher levels of insulin, which can be problematic for diabetics.
That's what a number of scientists say, and they agree that there has to be a better way. This is because breast milk is very easy to reheat and does not contain high levels of glucose. A number of scientists also believe that if you heat the milk, you can eat it without having to eat anything else.
In a new study, scientists at Cornell University discovered that if you heat milk, you can eat it while still leaving your blood sugar level the same. According to the study, it's best to reheat milk to make sure it has a nice, smooth texture before eating it.
This is because milk is full of lactose, which has a number of health benefits. The lactose is a sugar found in milk that makes it easier for your body to process, but if you eat too much lactose, you can develop complications from it. Also, if you make a lot of milk and eat it too fast, your body won't get used to the sugar, which can lead to diabetes.
I have been making a lot of milk lately and I'm finding that my milk tastes pretty good. However, I do have a bit of a problem keeping up with the amount of sugar I eat. I've been heating it up a bit and I am really enjoying the texture. It's a little sweet, but not too bad and still has enough calories to keep me full for dinner.
This is a bit complicated, because it depends entirely on how much sugar it is. If youre not eating enough, your body will process that sugar into glucose, which then goes into the bloodstream to be used by the cells. But if you eat lots of sugar, your body burns it as fat. The good news is that if you eat a lot of milk, then your body will get used to the sugar, and you won't have to worry about it.

This chapter explores the impact of the changing context of Information Technologies (ITs) and Information Systems (ISs) on Teacher Education (TE). ITs and ISs have influenced educational philosophy and classroom practices all over the world. Significant technological innovations over the last three decades have altered the environment in which educators operate and profoundly changed the experience of both formal and informal education. The impact and pervasiveness of ITs and ISs have forced traditional Colleges of Education and University Faculties of Education into a period of transition and transformation. Colleges and Faculties of Education have, for example, become sites of branding and rebranding. The policy makers associated with these programs reflexively look to market-based solutions without first giving serious thought to the challenges preventing the effective integration and use of ITs and ISs in TE, particularly in developing economies. Using a theory-based method of analysis, this chapter gathers and analyzes contemporary views and ideas on education and technology. This chapter finds that the impact of ITs and ISs on TE programs in Nigeria has shortchanged these programs. As a result, education consumers and stakeholders are dissatisfied with the slow integration and use of ITs and ISs in government-owned institutions of higher education in general and in TE programs in particular.
The globalization of the education sector and impacts of globalization on the workforce require a different kind of education; one that enhances the ability of learners to access, assess, adopt, and apply knowledge, to think independently, to exercise appropriate judgment, and to collaborate with others to make sense of new circumstances. Much like globalization, emerging technologies have impacted all aspects of national economies and societies. Teacher education has been highly affected by global trends in technology, particularly its economics and business content (Singh & Papa, 2010). Among UNESCO's recent strategic objectives for improving the quality of higher education are the diversification of content and methods, the promotion of experimentation and innovation, and the diffusion and sharing of information, best practices and policy dialogues (UNESCO, 2002, 2003). Many of these objectives relate directly to information technologies (ITs) and information systems (ISs) which have become critical personal and social tools and have had a revolutionary impact on how we see and love in the world (Ololube, Kpolovie, Amaele, Amanchukwu, & Briggs, 2013). In the context of teacher education, ITs and ISs involve the gathering, processing, storing, distributing and use of information in a range of strategy, management and operational activities with the aim of improving the effectiveness and efficiency of teachers.
Information capitalism and globalization have likewise impacted the ways in which teaching and learning are carried out in education programs around the world (Singh & Papa, 2010). Innovations in educational technologies are revolutionizing educational design and methodology (Miniaoui & Kaur, 2014). These trends, however, are not widespread and must be further strengthened if they are to reach a large percentage of the population, especially in the third world. In a complex society like Nigeria, many factors affect the use and integration of technologies in the teaching and learning process. As a result, a pro-active, interdisciplinary and integrated approach is required to ensure the successful development of teacher education and, in turn, the successful future development of the national economy (Ololube, 2014).
The global academic landscape includes research, teaching and learning. It includes educational programs and courses, the pedagogy or methodology of teaching, the research process (including dissemination and publication), library information systems and services, and administration and management. The integration of IT and ISs in teacher education programs has been the topic of a great deal of debate throughout this landscape. In Nigeria, the relationship between the development of ITs and ISs for teacher education programs and their diffusion into programs in Colleges of Education and university Faculties of Education is dependent upon governmental policies (Ololube, 2011).
Information technologies and systems are indispensable and have been accepted as part of the contemporary world especially in industrialized societies. In fact, many have already begun considerable adjustments to meet the challenges and opportunities of the knowledge age. The pervasiveness of ITs/ ISs has brought about rapid changes in technology and attendant social, political, and economic transformations (Ololube, 2006a). The field of education has not gone untouched. Without a doubt, ITs and ISs have impacted the quality and quantity of teaching, learning, and research in teacher education programs globally and to some extent in Nigeria. ITs and ISs provides opportunities for student teachers, and academic and non-academic staff to communicate with one another more effectively during formal and informal teaching and learning (Yusuf, 2005). Consequently, student teachers and academic and non-academic staff now require training not just in basic computer literacy, but also in the use of various communication and educational software packages and applications (Ololube, 2006b).


Current research into brain fitness indicates that we can take steps to enhance daily performance and even lower our risk for serious memory impairment as we age. While the science is relatively young, on the whole this data supports actions already strongly correlated with improved general health—actions that hold little risk.
These research advances, coupled with growing public policy concerns about dementia rates in our aging population, have raised public awareness of and demand for ways to maintain brain fitness. The boomers' commitment to staying vital at every age helps fuel this trend, and as a result the brain fitness trend is booming.
Eldercare professionals have long advocated for brain fitness, and were early to champion programs promoting brain healthy habits. Yet it has become increasingly difficult for many to keep abreast of developments in this fast-paced field. What should eldercare professionals know about trends in brain health?
Brain health is really about overall health.
Research indicates the best brain health model should take a broad-based, integrated wellness approach with activities that engage across physical, intellectual and emotional spectrums. Regular exercise, healthy eating, intellectual stimulation, staying connected to friends and family as well as maintaining emotional balance, have all been correlated with improved brain function. Brain fitness training emphasizing only one of these areas misses the boat. While using a brain fitness software product may provide opportunities for training cognitive skills, doing so without getting regular physical exercise or remaining socially engaged will not allow the individual to fully benefit from what we know about brain fitness.
Taken further, the research suggests that the two goals most often cited in brain fitness—everyday intellectual performance and reduced dementia risk—may be associated with different kinds of brain healthy activities. Maintaining a healthy weight and a brain healthy diet has been correlated with lower risk for lifetime memory impairment, but seems to have little to do with everyday cognitive skills. Conversely, training in skills such as memory or attention has been shown to significantly improve performance, but seems to have little impact on long-term dementia risk. Elder-care professionals should look for ways of providing training in a way that reflects this whole approach to brain health.
Brain health is for everyone.
Interest and ability to improve our brain health is not limited by age, education or cognitive status. We should bring better brain health education to all the older adults we serve. Brain health programming is neither complicated, nor too technical or nor too expensive to provide. Most older-adult programs already offer much that is brain healthy. Eldercare professionals should look first at where they have strong offerings in brain fitness and find ways to fill in with needed additional programming. Most older-adult programs offer exercise classes or intellectually engaging activities, but few have courses on memory strategies or other skills training.
Taking a "total" brain health approach to programming is not only evidence-based, but is smart, economical and builds on existing program strengths.
Eldercare professionals should also look to offer programs that serve older adults of all cognitive abilities. There is a growing body of research suggesting that certain activities, such as physical exercise, may benefit individuals with mild to moderate cognitive impairment. One study found that a short meditation exercise improved intellectual performance in a group of subjects with mild impairment. While further research is needed, providing brain healthy activities to all elders through activities that carry little risk but great potential benefit for improving their quality of life can only be positive.
Brain health is a growing specialty.
The increasingly complex science and interest in the topic is giving rise to a new specialty in brain health. Professionals across a number of settings, including senior living, community outreach, hospital-based services, home healthcare and private practice, can benefit from training in brain fitness services. Such training can better position professionals to responsibly meet the emerging public demand for high quality brain health services including assessment, training and programming.
Some professional training is already available through seminars (such as the "MindAlert" series offered by the American Society on Aging) and continuing education training. Professionals looking to add brain health services to their expertise can also look to the fast-growing certification programs in brain health, which offer a new level of competency.
Cynthia R. Green, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist, author, noted speaker and leading expert in brain health. Founder of the Memory Enhancement Program at the Mount Sinai Medical Center, Green heads the Total Brain Health program, which provides professional certification training in brain health programs as well as programs for the general public.

Understanding The Benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy
December 22, 2020 December 22, 2020 mindminglesLeave a Comment on Understanding The Benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy
Decreased levels of female hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone, are expected in menopausal women and may lead to a variety of health issues. These chemicals, responsible for regulating the reproductive system, are produced in lesser quantities as the ovaries stop releasing eggs and menstruation ceases. Disturbed sleep, cardiovascular issues, dermatological conditions, musculoskeletal problems, and gynecological complaints are among the health disorders associated with the menopause, and changes in the body's natural hormone production are the root cause of these complaints. Hormone Replacement Therapy, or HRT, may alleviate many of the symptoms associated with the menopause and make life easier for women undergoing this biological process.
Decreased Sleep
Adults require between seven and nine hours of sleep per night to remain healthy, but the menopause, causing a variety of nocturnal issues, can have an adverse impact on sleeping patterns. Hot flushes and night sweats, both common symptoms of the menopause, may cause sleep disturbances, as can anxiety and depression. Increased urination, resulting from declining estrogen levels, disrupts sleep, while decreased progesterone production may cause insomnia due to the hormone's ability to induce sleep. These conditions are often temporary, but physicians, upon weighing the risks and benefits of HRT, may recommend the use of synthetic hormones to alleviate these symptoms. Insomnia, a cause of hypertension and heart disease, may be relieved with HRT.
The onset of the menopause, occurring between the ages of forty-five and fifty-five, can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Research suggests that one-in-three women will experience cardiovascular disease during their lifetime and that, while lifestyle choices also play a role, declining estrogen levels are a contributing factor. Estrogen has a beneficial effect on the heart, strengthening the arteries, and women are less likely to experience heart attacks and strokes before the onset of the menopause. The use of synthetic hormones, taken in pill form, can increase the risk of blood clots, but absorbing these chemicals through the skin via patches or gels can reduce the likelihood of blood clotting and may mitigate the adverse effects of decreased estrogen levels on cardiovascular health.

Loss of collagen and elastin, which help to maintain the skin's youthful appearance, is a common occurrence during the menopause and can accelerate the aging process. Estrogen is known to prevent the skin from thinning due to its promotion of collagen and elastin production, and declining hormone levels may result in the skin losing its thickness and elasticity. Vascularisation, or the process in which new capillaries are created, is essential for the maintenance of healthy skin, and decreased estrogen levels may hinder the development of new blood vessels. Studies suggest that Hormone Replacement Therapy can prevent wrinkling, caused by the loss of collagen and elastin, and stop skin from drying out but is less effective at preventing skin atrophy.
Reduced muscle mass and decreased bone density, caused by falling estrogen levels, can occur during the menopause and present an increased risk of fractures as well as a loss of strength. Evidence shows that Hormone Replacement Therapy improves the health of women experiencing musculoskeletal problems, such as osteoporosis, resulting from a drop in estrogen production. Osteoporosis, a major complaint of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, causes bones to become brittle and can result in fractures and deformations of the skeleton. Synthetic female hormones may improve the health of bones, ligaments, and tendons while preventing the loss of strength associated with muscle deterioration. The symptoms of arthritis, however, may be aggravated.
Gynecological complaints
The menopause may cause the vagina to become dry, itchy, and painful due to a decrease in female sex hormone production levels. Hormone Replacement Therapy is known to alleviate several gynecological complaints, such as sexual dysfunction and pain during sexual intercourse, that are associated with the menopause.

Expression of the M3 Muscarinic Receptor on Orexin Neurons that Project to the Rostral Ventrolateral Medulla

Activation of central cholinergic receptors causes a pressor response in rats, and the hypothalamus is important for this response. Projections from hypothalamic orexin neurons to the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) are involved in sympatho-excitation of the cardiovascular system. A small population of orexin neurons is regulated by cholinergic inputs through M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R). To elucidate whether the M3R on orexin neurons is involved in cardiosympathetic regulation through the RVLM, we examined the presence of the M3R on retrograde-labeled RVLM-projecting orexin neurons. The retrograde tracer was unilaterally injected into the RVLM. Within the hypothalamus, retrograde-labeled neurons were located predominantly ipsilateral to the injection side. In the anterior hypothalamus (-1.5 to -2.3 mm to the bregma), retrograde-labeled neurons were densely distributed in the paraventricular nuclei and scattered in the retrochiasmatic area. At -2.3 to -3.5 mm from the bregma, labeled neurons were located in the regions where orexin neurons were situated, that is, the tuberal lateral hypothalamic area, perifornical area, and dorsomedial nuclei. Very few retrograde-labeled neurons were observed in the hypothalamus at -3.5 to -4.5 mm from the bregma. About 19.5%±1.6% of RVLM-projecting neurons in the tuberal hypothalamus were orexinergic. The M3R was present on 18.7%±3.0% of RVLM-projecting orexin neurons. Injection of a muscarinic agonist, oxotremorine, in the perifornical area resulted in a pressor response, which was attenuated by a pretreatment of atropine. We conclude that cholinergic inputs to orexin neurons may be involved in cardiosympathetic regulation through the M3R on the orexin neurons that directly project to the RVLM.

To elucidate whether the M3R on orexin neurons is involved in cardiosympathetic regulation through the RVLM, we examined the presence of the M3R on retrograde-labeled RVLM-projecting orexin neurons. The retrograde tracer was unilaterally injected into the RVLM. Within the hypothalamus, retrograde-labeled neurons were located predominantly ipsilateral to the injection side. In the anterior hypothalamus (-1.5 to -2.3 mm to the bregma), retrograde-labeled neurons were densely distributed in the paraventricular nuclei and scattered in the retrochiasmatic area. At -2.3 to -3.5 mm from the bregma, labeled neurons were located in the regions where orexin neurons were situated, that is, the tuberal lateral hypothalamic area, perifornical area, and dorsomedial nuclei. Very few retrograde-labeled neurons were observed in the hypothalamus at -3.5 to -4.5 mm from the bregma. About 19.5%±1.6% of RVLM-projecting neurons in the tuberal hypothalamus were orexinergic. The M3R was present on 18.7%±3.0% of RVLM-projecting orexin neurons. Injection of a muscarinic agonist, oxotremorine, in the perifornical area resulted in a pressor response, which was attenuated by a pretreatment of atropine. We conclude that cholinergic inputs to orexin neurons may be involved in cardiosympathetic regulation through the M3R on the orexin neurons that directly project to the RVLM.

"The qualitative learning experience of healthcare workers completing a" by Gordon Gillespie, Sharon Farra et al.
Background: Hybrid educational methodologies which include online and classroom-based learning experiences increase learning. However, the course delivery preferences of learners need to be evaluated so the design and delivery of future programs will maximize learning outcomes. The aim of this study was to describe how the delivery of a hybrid program contributes to learning outcomes.
Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was used. Participants were recruited from two large emergency departments that completed a hybrid workplace violence educational program. Four focus group sessions were held with a convenience sample of 17 participants to discuss their learning experience with the hybrid educational program. Sessions were audiotaped and transcribed verbatim. Data were analyzed using a constant comparative analysis method.
Results: Three themes emerged from the data. The first theme was "Implementation of the Intervention" and represented the opportunity for learning, the environment of learning, and the need for uniform training. The second theme was "Experience of the Intervention" and represented the conditions of learning, interdisciplinary learning, facilitated engagement, and realism of the learning content. The third theme was "Translation of the Intervention" which represented the transferability and retention of the program content.
Conclusion: An active learning classroom-based component was perceived to yield greater knowledge attainment and retention than online learning for the participants in this study. Consideration of the learning styles and needs of learners should be taken into consideration when developing content for the online delivery or hybrid approach for educational programs.

A mobile office is just that, so it can certainly be relocated at any time – if you're willing to pay the price.
"The customer must call and is responsible for relocation charges, which usually include dismantling, travel time, and setting up the unit again," said Kristina Weinrich, account manager for ModSpace in Berwyn, Penn.
Relocating a mobile office is a more complicated, costly process than its simple, portable prefab design may suggest. Relocation involves essentially the same process as setup from scratch – site visitation and preparation, utility coordination, foundation blocking and leveling, unit transportation and installation, securing it to the foundation, anchoring or tying it down if necessary, utility hookups – with the addition of relocation fees, including original foundation dismantling, as well as securing a building permit for the unit's new location.
The overall cost of relocating a mobile office or home, of course, varies according to such factors as the unit's size and weight, its type of foundation, the distance of the move, the regional market you're in, utility cancellation fees at the previous site, moving permit and new site preparation costs, and the costs of replacing accessories such as decks, steps, ramps and skirting. The moving cost itself could be as little as $1,000 to $5,000 or as much as $15,000 and up at rates of $5 to $10 per mile, according to Manufactured Selling Solutions of Grand Blanc, Mich.
But the cost can be reduced by emptying out your mobile office of all furniture, electronic equipment, freestanding lamps, file cabinets, shelf units, books and papers, kitchen counter appliances, tableware, etc. This is a good idea anyway, as it will help protect both the office and its contents against damage and breakage that would add further dollars to the move. Lock, secure and cover all windows and doors prior to the move so they won't fly open or get smashed on the road, and ask your mobile office dealer what is recommended for window/door covering and securing it in place. Reuse of existing foundation blocks, piles, skirts, etc. is another money saver, subject to the new site's soil conditions and levelness, as well as the building regulations in a different state.
In the final analysis, relocating a mobile office can cost as much as buying and installing it anew. So before you decide to relocate, consider how it could make your prefab unit less "affordable" than you hoped it would be.

2137 Meditation on "I am nobody"
One of the Jewish mystics' primary meditative methods parallels a method used by mystics the world over. It has to do with withdrawing from the world, finding a place of inner quiet, and letting go of one's sense of selfidentity. It is said that the heart has a covering of psychic material keeping us separated from inner chambers that are connected with the Divine. The sheath over the heart is called the ego identity. This meditation practice is used to circumcise the heart, so to speak, to clear away our personal sense of identity so that we can enter the state of nothingness (ayin) from which we are able to freely explore the heart's inner chambers.
The word bittul means to nullify, to erase. The word yesh means thingness; it is the opposite of ayin. So to bittul ha-yesh means to nullify the sense that there that "I am something," leaving the feeling of nothingness. Although we have an intrinsic feeling that we are somebody or something, this meditation leads us to the truth that we are in fact not what we think we are.
Please decide in advance how much time you will allow for this visualization. You can shorten the time if you need, but try not to extend beyond the selfimposed time limit. The reason for this is that the process we are about to do can be quite seductive and the meditator could easily spend many hours in a meditative trance-which is not the purpose. The purpose is to become familiar with your inner world, to discover methods of moving from world to world with the knowledge that there will always be new inner worlds to explore.
It is useful to have a journal handy for this particular meditation because the experience can become quite detailed. From level to level, gateway to gateway, you may wish to interrupt your meditation to record the experiences. This is a worthwhile process and you will find that you soon become adept at entering into and coming out of the meditative state at will. Thus, in this meditation, reminders will be included for you to record your experience.
1. Please begin by sitting quietly, noticing the rising and falling of the chest on the breath for at least five minutes. Then visualize yourself in the middle of an open field. Looking all around, describe to yourself what you see, experiencing it in as much detail as possible.
2. Now, imagine a ladder near you, with its base fixed on the ground, reaching upward into the sky. It reaches beyond where you can see. You know the ladder is very sturdy and safe; it could be climbed if one wished to do so. Please look closely at the ladder, but do not ascend it just yet. Walk around it and describe to yourself what it looks like and how you are feeling at this time.
4. Spend time on this first level. Imagine that you find a gateway, but it is carefully guarded by something or someone. Look closely at the gateway and at the thing or being that is guarding it. Describe to yourself the situation, what you see, and how it feels.
6. Now, once again, you may choose to turn back (as you can at any time) or you may continue. Try to remember your process of decision making. If you turn back, you will end the meditation now. If you choose to go ahead, you will eventually encounter another kind of gate or barrier along the way. Describe your experience, what you see, and how you feel.
8. When the time is near for you to finish, please return the same way you entered. That is, reverse your ascent and go back through the levels or chambers you have encountered, always trying to remember what you saw, what you experienced, and what you had to do to get past the gate. It is important to work your way backward, down through the various levels, at the end of this meditation. This reversal and return is an essential part of the process and should not be omitted. When you have returned to the field, open your eyes.
As soon as possible after this meditation, record everything that you can remember. Repeat the entire journey in your mind a few times until you have the sequence of events memorized. Then in moments of reflection during the next week to ten days, review the complete inner voyage. You will find that the review becomes easy and fast-often the voyage can be remembered in less than a minute-and you will begin to become intimately acquainted with the various guardians along the way.
At the end of one or two weeks, you may wish to reenter this visualization and carry it to new levels, or you may wish to begin an entirely new sequence. When a student becomes proficient in this process, the inner pathways can lead to great heights and profound depths.
You will discover that the farther you go in the process, the more you will have to let go of your selfidentity. Many of the higher realms are guarded in such a way that one must become almost invisible to enter them. Ultimately, we will begin to experience qualities of the state of nothingness. Thus, this practice, over time, trains us to let go of our selves, so to speak, and allows us profound insight into the nature of our being.


Osseointegration of titanium dental implants into the jaw bone, which is required for maintenance of the implant in the jaw, results in ankylosis. Dental implants are therefore very unlike natural teeth, which exhibit significant movement in response to mechanical forces. The ability to generate periodontal ligament (PDL) tissues onto dental implants would better mimic the functional characteristics of natural teeth, and would likely improve implant duration and function. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of bioengineering PDL tissues onto titanium implant surfaces. METHODS: Bilateral maxillary first and second molars of 8-week old rats were extracted and used to generate single cell suspensions of PDL tissues, which were expanded in culture. Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR were used to identify putative PDL progenitor/stem cell populations and characterize stem cell properties, including self-renewal, multipotency and stem cell maker expression. Cultured rPDL cells were harvested at third passage, seeded onto Matrigel-coated titanium implants (1.75 mm x 1 mm), and placed into healed M1/M2 extraction sites. Non-cell seeded Matrigel-coated titanium implants served as negative controls. Implants were harvested after 8, 12, or 18 weeks. RESULTS: Cultured rPDL cells expressed the mesenchymal stem-cell marker STRO-1. Under defined culture conditions, PDL cells differentiated into adipogenic, neurogenic and osteogenic lineages. While control implants were largely surrounded by alveolar bone, experimental samples exhibited fibrous PDL-like tissues, and perhaps cementum, on the surface of experimental implants. CONCLUSIONS: PDL contains stem cells that can generate cementum/PDL-like tissue in vivo. Transplantation of these cells might hold promise as a therapeutic approach for the bioengineering of PDL tissues onto titanium implant. Further refinement of this method will likely result in improved dental implant strategies for use of autologous PDL tissue regeneration in humans. This research was supported by CIMIT, and NIH/NIDCR grant DE016132 (PCY), and TEACRS (YL).

CJI writes to PM for removal of Allahabad High Court judge
New Delhi, June 24, 2019 00:00 IST
Months after an in-house panel found an Allahabad High Court judge, Justice S.N. Shukla, guilty of misconduct, Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to initiate a motion for his removal.
A three-judge committee, comprising Chief Justices Indira Banerjee, S.K. Agnihotri and P.K. Jaiswal of the Madras, Sikkim and Madhya Pradesh High Courts, respectively, in January 2018 concluded there was sufficient substance in the allegations in the complaint against Justice Shukla and that the aberrations were serious enough to call for initiation of proceedings for his removal.
Following the committee's report, the then Chief Justice of India, Dipak Misra, in accordance with the relevant in-house procedure, advised Justice Shukla either to resign or seek voluntary retirement.
On long leave
After he refused to do so, Chief Justice Misra asked the Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court to withdraw judicial work from him with immediate effect, after which he reportedly went on a long leave.
On March 23, Justice Shukla wrote to Chief Justice Gogoi, requesting that he be allowed to discharge judicial work in the High Court.
"As the allegations against Justice Shukla were found by the committee to be so serious as to warrant the initiation of proceedings for his removal, he cannot be allowed to resume judicial work in any High Court. In these circumstances, you are requested to consider further action," Chief Justice Gogoi wrote to the PM.
When the CJI writes to the President and the PM for removal of a High Court judge, the Rajya Sabha Chairperson appoints a three-judge inquiry committee in consultation with the CJI to look into the allegations.

Chick-fil-A Isn't Just Anti-Same Sex Marriage. They're Anti-Gay EVERYTHING!
Will Kohler July 24, 2012
Theres something that needs to be clarified in this whole Chick-fil-A business.
Chick-fil-A is not only anti same-sex marriage. They are Anti-Gay everything. PERIOD.
Chick-fil-A's charitable arm has donated MILLIONS of dollars and services to anti-gay groups and nationally recognized hate groups including Focus on the Family and The Family Research Council whose hateful agendas go far beyond that of same-sex marriage but extends to other issues LGBT related issues as fighting ENDA and the repealing of DADT.
Also, one of Chick-fil-A recipients was Exodus International an "ex-gay" organization that uses conversion therapy to attempt to turn gay people straight and has ruined the lives of countless of thousands of gay men and has even led some to commit suicide.
Chick-Fil-A is not only anti same-sex marriage. They are anti-gay everything plain and simple.
This is not a just a one issue subject issue where Dan Cathy and Chick-fil-A is concerned and we shouldn't let it be portrayed that way by the right-wing, the mainstream media and our own LGBT media needs to remember that as portray them as that as well.

Sly says:
I agree so freaking much with this. Earlier this week I've had debates with more "conservative" friends who feel we should just respect the company's beliefs. To hell with that. They are about taking away LGBTQ rights as well. We have to be proactive about this as apparently some in the community.
Sly, I could not agree more. They are allowed their opinion. But openly funding hate groups draw the line. Do these people realize how much they could have helped it that money had went to a local food pantry, AIDS research or even a homeless shelter? THAT would have been a Christian thing to do.
Midwest says:
Not everyone hates you because they disagree with lgbtq lifestyle. Science isn't even all there for saying you're born this way. In fact it's known it's a choice too. You need to be as tolerant of us conservative traditionalists as you demand us to be of yoy! Don't be heterosexual phobics!
