November 2019 Sale Report
LOWRY'S MATCHSTALK MEN OF THE MOMENT
The long anticipated sale of mid 20th century paintings and furniture did not fail to delight and kicked off the first day's auction. A strong online following had been building for sometime, prior to the auction, and resulted in a torrent of bids, particularly for the picture section. This included five signed prints by increasingly sought after artist, Lawrence Stephen Lowry (1887-1976), which had been consigned from a Cotswold market town. With hopes of around £12,000 they achieved, in total, £20,700. The vendor has already consigned a further five prints by this artist for inclusion in a sale next year. Other prices included a John Houston (1930-2008) oil, entitled Bass Rock, Summer, at £1,550, while the best of the three Mary Fedden (1915-2012) entitled Desert, made £2,500. An oil by Rachel Nicholson of a mug made £1,750 and a large unattributed oil sold at £1,050. Roger Hilton (1911-1975), was the artist of an untitled abstract figural study which sold at £4,000. Studio Pottery, furniture and other modern art objects from this section also sold well. The section totalled some 200 lots and realised over £62,000. There will be a further sale of this very popular modern art style next year, and entries are already being invited. Auctioneer John Rolfe will be pleased to discuss any entries you may be considering consigning.
Moving onto the more traditional section, the two hundred or so lots of ceramics saw a virtual clear out, as did the glassware and silver sections. The jewellery section of some seventy lots also enjoyed a virtual sell-out and totalled over £15,000. A large cocktail ring set with coral, emeralds and diamonds realized £1,250 and an Arts & Crafts enamel belt set with eleven panels and attributed to Charles Fleetwood Varley made £2,600.
Good vintage wristwatches are soaring in price, with an Art Deco Vacheron Constantine gents 18ct dress watch realising £1,100, an 18ct Omega Constellation automatic chronograph at £2,100 and a Heuer chronograph in a stainless steel case selling at £4,000. Virtually all the clocks found homes, so too the toy collection.
Amongst the miscellaneous section, a selection of effects ranging from a boxing trophy, books on hunting, a hunting style weather vane, saddles and jackets, all from the estate of the late Captain E De L Cazenove, sold for around £1,000.
A 19th century violin labelled Gand & Bernardel Fres, Luthiers Du Conservatore De Musique number 761, Paris 1878 generated wide interest. Having been found as part of a local clearance, it escalated to a price of £13,800, despite being in need of restoration and down to a single string.
The second day's auction commenced with the sale of a TR2 sports car or, to be fair, the remains of a TR2 sports car, found languishing at the back of a garage in Gloucester. A large crowd gathered to see it sell at £2,700. That was followed by a rather more modern car, a Nissan Micra from 2010, which made £1,400. A 19th century verdigris cast iron Fonderies Du Val D Osne 56 BD Voltaire Paris torchere figure of a maiden made £1,800, a pair of Quad II classic valve amps, complete with original cardboard packaging, realised £1,000.
A large collection of Eastern carpets and rugs saw virtually every lot sold, with the 45 lots totaling £3,410. A Georgian mahogany drum table, the circular top with inset leather detail, made £1,250, while a pair of late 17th century or early 18th century walnut open armchairs with tapestry seats made £1,150. An 18th century cricket/cheese table raised on three very simple supports, together with a further rustic cricket table and two very simple stools made £1,600. A carved panelled oak settle, the box seat incorporating high quality carvings of birds and animals amongst foliage, and with a certain Arts & Crafts influence to it, realised £2,600. A good early oak credence table, the D end top raised on four gun barrel supports, took £1,800.
At the time of writing, the auction rooms are now filling rapidly for the auction to be held just before Christmas, on the 19th & 20th December, and a full calendar of forthcoming sales for 2020 is soon to be available.

PRACTICE IN THE PARK/CHURCH
It had been 23 years since Ann had last played anything but within a couple of weeks she was playing quite nicely as thngs came back to her. She has built up a collection of music books which she used to play and found that amazon sold most of them second hand with one or two coating as little as £2. Then in February 2016 she went to a classical music concert where two girls were playing a violin and cello. They were very good but just werent as polished as they shoud have been. She began to think that perhaps she ought to get a violin. She had realised the cost of instruments has come down cconsiderably in comparison to how much they were 30 years ago. Someone saw her at the concert and asked how she had got interested in classical music? She told them she was a classically trained violinist but hadnt played for 37 years so it was suggested she should join a local ensemble that was just forming and there first meeting wasnt for five weeks. She got the impression they thought she was bluffing so she looked on gumtree and found a 3/4 size violin for £20. Within a week she was playing Amazing Gracee and other bbasic music quite nicely. She arrived at the first ensemble meeting four weeks later and found the othherr first violin was only a bit better than herself and the lady playing second violin said if Ann was that good in5 weeks she had better get some lessons.

Depending on the extent of accumulation and the body's natural ability to detox, the detoxing of excess copper is often a complex, long term endeavour. It most often involves the integration of numerous approaches, including removal of the source of excess exposure, specific nutritional support, and even some element of emotional healing and growth. For some it can seem like an endless process, and not all are wiling to make the journey, resisting and denying the physical and psychological work involved. However for those who commit to their healing, the eventual 'detox' of copper is often described as a gift offering a heightened sense of self-awareness and appreciation, along with improved energy and health. Be cautious with some of those "one-size-fits-all" protocols out there, as the specific healing protocol will vary from person to person determined by their individual mineral pattern as shown on their HTMA. That being said, there are some generalities that can be explained here. This site is not meant to diagnose, nor is it meant to 'cure'. The hope is that the information compiled here will give you guidance in your healing journey, but the importance of working with HTMA and a practitioner well-versed in copper toxicity cannot be understated.
How Long Can One Expect the detox Process to Take?
in 2 weeks or even 2 months."
Depending on severity, it should be expected to take anywhere from 6 months to several years to correct a copper imbalance ).. and this assumes the patient is undergoing a properly constructed and monitored nutritional balancing program. Removing excess tissue copper is required, which in turn requires sufficient adrenal strength and bile production, and all of this requires a long term commitment. Typically vegetarians/vegans and those on raw food diets take the longest to recover, not only because the copper has been building up in the body over a long period of time, but also due to their reduced adrenal and metabolic function, paired with possible resistance in adding meat back into the diet. Vegetarians will have further difficulty in adequately detoxing copper due to their lack of Taurine, an amino acid not found in plant foods yet which is critical for bile production. Even for the meat eater, the balancing of minerals takes many months, and commitment to the program is necessary. The greater the adrenal weakness/burnout, the longer the process will take. Adrenal restoration can take 9-15 months for a fast oxidizer and 15-36 months for a slow oxidizer (Eck), and this needs to take place before copper can be properly regulated. Attempting to detox too quickly can result in serious reactions both physically & mentally. Note: if symptoms were exacerbated by a copper IUD, removal can often lead to a very quick return to 'feeling better' (increased energy, improved libido, less brain fog, etc), though this does not reflect having detoxed or 'healed'.
"I have talked to so many people who say, "Well, I read that zinc was good, and I did this and that." And I said, "You know what you did? You actually activated detoxification mechanisms that now cause your depression to get worse."
"Copper is one of those bad boys when it is leaving your system....if it's coming out too quickly. You can indeed control the rate at which elements like copper are removed from the system through detoxification. And that's extremely important, because believe me, you don't want somebody or a family member calling you saying, "What did you do to my wife? She is not the same person and…" I've had that happen before. So we have to be very careful."
" Many symptoms can occur when excess copper is eliminated from the tissues. One may experience headaches, usually of the migraine type. Extreme fatigue, acne, skin eruptions on the head, chest and thighs, free floating anxiety feelings, spaciness, fears and disorientation may occur.
As the heavily copper toxic individual will most always present with adrenal exhaustion, the most common approach is to immediately target the adrenals to restore the person's energy. Zinc is also very commonly recommended as it is the most well known copper antagonist (getting depleted as copper goes too high). Though there is some merit to such an approach, it can also be a very dangerous approach. When copper is mobilized too quickly through adrenal support and other copper antagonists such as zinc without first ensuring an efficient biliary tract system and sufficient bile production, the mobilized copper simply gets stirred around and redeposited, resulting in undesirable psychological, emotional, and/or physical reactions. Zinc doesn't chelate out copper, it merely stirs it up. This is why giving zinc to the copper toxic individual is initially rarely recommended, and at amounts greater than 20mg-25mg can often make things much worse, bringing on both physical and psychological effects of a copper dump.
As copper is mobilized from storage sites and enters the blood, adrenalin secretion is increased. Adrenalin is an anxiety and panic hormone, and this is one reason why during copper dumping (when blood copper is elevated), these psychological reactions can amplify.
Too strong and quick an adrenal boost can also bring on serious copper dump symptoms. Often the patient will stop the program, either because the symptoms of copper dumping initially are too intense, or because, paradoxically, they actually begin feeling better due to their increased energy and believe they've healed. Adrenals react quickly to support, and energy can return rather soon, giving a false sense of improvement. This is where one must understand that this quick return in energy does NOT represent a proper restoration of adrenal function. Nor does it necessarily even mean that the body is effectively dumping copper, since usually energy decreases during periods when the body is dumping copper. Stopping the detox process at this point is like giving up on a weight loss program as soon as you lose the first pound. For women in full burnout, recovery can be expected to take one to two years on stringent adrenal therapy.
An important to understand danger with offering adrenal support formulas without monitoring mineral levels through HTMA, is that the adrenal support may increase one's sodium level. As sodium increases, the sodium to potassium ratio increases. Considering that copper dumping further depletes potassium, this will really increase the Na/K stress ratio and in turn the stress response - leading a person to more extreme reactions and a shorter fuse than would be normal, and rash decisions / over-reactions could result. It can be very difficult to get through to a person in this state. Once again, the patient should always be made fully aware of what negative psychological symptoms may appear once detox begins so that extreme over-reactions and potentially damaging decisions can be avoided during this time. Not doing so is certainly not in the best interest of the patient, and could be considered gross negligence.
The aforementioned is also true for doing exercise while detoxing copper. Anything what whips up the adrenals, which exercise does, will result in potentially similar physical and psychological reactions of a copper dump as explained above. If any of these circumstances are occurring without adequate liver and bile functioning, copper gets stirred up and largely redeposited, often in secondary locations including the brain. This can really impact one's awareness and perception, especially in combination with the calcium shell, adrenal support (which can increase one's sense of short term energy), and a lifting of brain fog (which is often the result of copper accumulation in the liver, but which can be 'improved' as copper gets mobilized and redeposited elsewhere).
Adding too much zinc too quickly into a detox program can aggravate mental symptoms in a very inconspicuous way. First, it's important to understand that zinc has been shown to have an antidepressant effect. Thus, as copper accumulates and the Cu/Zn ratio becomes more and more imbalanced, the tendency for depression increases - a very common symptom of the copper toxic individual. Then, if too much zinc is added into the detox program, due to it's antidepressant effect, it can potentially make the person feel better, like a weight has been lifted. However, under the surface, that zinc has also mobilized copper, and this in turn can amplify depression, anxiety, panic reactions and other negative effects of detoxing as mentioned above. Yet, by way of mobilizing copper, this can increase the calcium shell effect as a protective mechanism, further shutting a person down and decreasing their awareness or understanding of what's transpiring. Through this tinted lens of the calcium shell, zinc's antidepressant effect, and the energy boost given by adrenal support, the individual may feel better and decide that their healing is done. Unfortunately, the zinc has done very little to actually lower the copper level, especially considering that zinc's antagonist effect on copper is only at the intestinal level . In other words, consuming zinc with a high copper diet is helpful to prevent a copper build up, but once that copper has accumulated and become stored in tissues, zinc will have a very weak effect on lowering copper - as mentioned it will just stir things up allowing for copper to be redeposited elsewhere, especially if there is inadequate bile to help eliminate the copper. If the introduction of even low dose zinc brings on symptoms of nausea, this is further suggestive that manganese should be provided for a few weeks before attempting to give (or restart) zinc).
This also underscores the importance of supporting the liver and ensuring adequate bile production before any copper antagonists (such as zinc) or adrenals stimulants are given. If the liver is weak / congested, then there is likely low bile flow. Bile is necessary to excrete excess copper, with copper excreted via bile the least readily reabsorbed. This is why working on the liver and bile is so important. However, a caution is needed here too. With the 'cleansing' of the liver can also come the release of a lot of negative emotions. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, long ago buried negative emotions are stored in the liver, and these can be released along with the toxins during a detox. Being mindful of these consequences beforehand can be helpful to reduce (or at least understand) the psychological reactions that may appear.
Herein is the challenge with detoxing copper - anytime you begin a detox, you whip up the bad stuff. This underscores why the detox must be approached slowly and cautiously.
While this site should not be used to treat or diagnose any condition, the following provides generalities that may be considered when working to detox and heal.
Identify where the source of copper toxicity is coming from and as best as possible, remove the source. While this may not be entirely possible, certain sources are obvious and can be adjusted. If a copper IUD is causing the toxicity, remove it. If it's the birth control pill, look into what other options might be available. If your home has copper piping, avoid drinking the tap water. If your diet is plant-based, it will serve your health to consider, even in small gradual amounts, incorporating some organic meat back into the diet. Without first removing the underlying key source of exposure, it will be very difficult to ever properly heal and recover.
Have an HTMA test performed and properly analyzed. This will provide the evidence-based guidance necessary for establishing a nutritional balancing healing protocol. How much adrenal support, thyroid support, zinc, potassium, calcium, etc your body needs can be seen through HTMA data. If your doctor cautions you against using HTMA in favor of blood testing, that in itself means they do not adequately understand the complexities of copper toxicity nor how to properly treat it.
Copper elimination channels must be open and bile must be flowing. This is a great hindrance for the vegan/vegetarian due to their lack of meat-sourced Taurine. Taurine supplementation will be essential in this case, as are other supplements that can support bile production.
Adrenal support and zinc, while both can be beneficial, must be used with extreme care as too much can cause undesirable physical and psychological reactions as already discussed. In fact, zinc is rarely used to detox copper, and certainly not initially. It should be considered more of a preventative for future copper accumulation, or added in only after detox pathways have been supported. If zinc is supplemented for copper toxicity, it must be introduced slowly, beginning with no more than 10mg to 25mg. Likewise, while adrenal glandular and adaptogenic herbs can be great for mildly weak adrenals, once a person has gone into burnout these supplements become over-stimulating and in fact should be avoided, or used very cautiously. Though they can help restore energy at first, they can lead to increased irritability and anxiety, an increased calcium shell, and, in the long term, even worsening fatigue.
The liver must be supported. Only once adrenal function and adequate DHEA production is restored can the liver then produce adequate ceruloplasmin necessary to bind to copper to make it bioavailable. Just as importantly, liver support is also required to help make sufficient bile which in turn is necessary in order to get rid of excess copper. Improving overall mineral balance will in turn assist the health of the liver and adrenals, alongside the production of ceruloplasmin.
Digestive support (which most copper toxic slow metabolizers need) is also required. As digestive function improves so too will the efficacy of nutrient intake.
It cannot be overstated that taking too much of any copper antagonizer or boosting adrenals too quickly can lead to significant detox reactions including severe PMS type symptoms, emotional withdrawal, flu-like symptoms, or the many others that are mentioned in the section below. Detox must be approached gently.
Vitamin C, Sulfur (MSM), and Chromium are often a first line of defence against normalizing copper, together with magnesium potassium, selenium, glutathione, etc. This can then be followed by the minerals manganese (needed to release copper from intracellular lockup where copper's effects are toxic) and sometimes molybdenum, keeping in mind that these must be given as suggested through HTMA data and should be given gradually.
Other beneficial minerals and vitamins not already mentioned, depending on one's HTMA, may include Potassium, Phosphorus, Vitamin A (retinol form rather than beta-carotene). The following antagonistic (to copper) nutrients may also be advised: Vitamins B1, B2, B6, folate, inositol, and choline.
In cases where the patient shows a high calcium level or low potassium (as is common with copper toxicity / slow metabolizers), oral Vitamin D supplementation should be avoided as it will make the negative side effects even more pronounced by further raising calcium and depleting potassium (further slowing the thyroid, lowering energy, lowering emotions, and increasing depression). It will also raise the sodium potassium ratio (which threatens the stress response, and lowers (calming) magnesium.
Calcium is also usually best avoided as it will further increase the calcium shell and further slow metabolism. Though it can help alleviate symptoms, it is doing so by numbing the person's awareness and feelings.
4. General diet: It's widely accepted that vegetarian/vegan diets exacerbate copper toxicity, and vegans/vegetarians should strongly consider slowly reincorporating animal meat back into the diet (despite the strong resistance to this that will naturally be felt by many with copper toxicity). It will be almost impossible to properly detox otherwise. This is not meant to promote meat - the modern Western meat based diet is far from healthy and plant based diets have great health benefits, certainly short term. However, if you are hoping to fully recover from copper toxicity, despite personal objections to eating meat, it is of paramount importance to add at least some meat back into the diet. This does not need to be a lifelong commitment. Certainly though it can help speed up and make more effective the period of detox, and could be the make or break decision determining a proper recovery - physically and psychologically. Organically raised grass fed meat is recommended. Organic or not though, foods that have high enough zinc levels to counterbalance the high copper should be increased, these being red meat (best source) such as beef, lamb, and venison, chicken, eggs and pumpkin seeds. Likewise, high copper containing foods should be reduced or eliminated - these being notably shellfish, nuts and seeds (except for pumpkin seeds), soybeans (tofu, tempeh, miso, etc.), legumes, wheat germ (though also high in zinc, remember that the phytic acid greatly impairs the utilization of that zinc), coconut, avocado, chocolate, coffee, and leafy greens. To help recover and detox, these foods should be limited. Finally, a note regarding cod liver oil and desiccated beef liver, two items sometimes misguidingly suggested by practitioners. Cod liver oil does provide a great source of retinol, but it also is high in Vitamin D, which in turn lowers potassium. If the patient's potassium is low, this should be avoided. Beef liver contains a high amount of copper, and for the copper toxic person, even half mg of copper can have adverse effects. Sulfur rich foods (such as eggs, garlic, onions) are highly important to help with detoxing toxins in general.
5. Other foods and herbs that can generally help the liver and the detoxing process include: Fermented foods, Turmeric, Pomegranates as well as Brassicaceaes Vegetables, Milk Thistle (very important for liver detoxing), Stinging Nettle (nettle infusions), Flax, Dandelion Root Tea, Kombucha Tea, and Diatomaceous Earth (both of which bind to and help remove heavy metals from the body), Castor Oil packs, and St. John's Wort. The latter, St. John's Wort, also is effective with decreasing serum estrogen (high levels of which as you'll recall are a major cause of copper retention).
6. Remember that it is not just about correcting the copper level. Your recovery will also be determined by the balancing of other key minerals and ratios. Those minerals that are deficient in relation to others will need to be increased through diet and supplementation, while other minerals in excess may need to be reduced. Keep in mind there is no one-size-fits-all recommendation that can be given here - again the detox and nutritional plan is a highly personalized plan that must be properly assessed and monitored. Without HTMA results to use as a guide, any supplement or detox program becomes nothing more than blind guesswork.
the wrong detox mechanism can affect you psychologically and psychiatrically."
Here are some additional things to look at to enhance the healing/detox process.
Cod liver oil (without being extra D-fortified) and whole food vitamin C can, respectively, increase retinol and bioavailable copper.
3. Sweating / saunas offer a gentler and safer approach with a less severe effect than enemas. Infrared sauna therapy is in fact excellent for detoxing copper as well as other heavy metals and toxins. It also allows creates a parasympathetic effect which further helps with bile secretion, allowing toxins to be excreted.
6. Breathwork. Breathwork can be one of the most powerful anti-anxiety and stress relieving tools you can use. One very successful method is the "4/7/8 Breath". To do this, begin by fully and powerfully exhaling through the mouth. Then inhale fully through to the nose to a count of 4. Hold for 7 seconds. Then release and exhale through the mouth forcefully for 8 seconds. Repeat this for 4 breath cycles. Then stop. Do not go longer. Do this twice a day, consistently each day, for at least 6 to 8 weeks. Butekyo Breathing can be another useful technique.
8. Epsom Salt Baths or Magnesium Chloride Baths (these can help enhance your magnesium absorption without the laxative effects as this way it bypasses the gut.
9. Coffee enemas are excellent for removing toxins and especially stimulating bile flow. Just be cautious as you can't control which minerals it will deplete. In other words, if you use it to reduce high levels of copper, it can deplete other minerals in the process. For this reason I do not suggest coffee enemas when all the minerals are low to begin with. Otherwise, as long as your mineral levels are being monitored and adjusted, coffee enemas are very beneficial for detoxing. [Here is one brand recommended for enemas, and they also supply all the equipment needed].
10.Be objectively aware of recent behaviours. Did you make a drastic decision or did your life take a turn around the time your copper hit a peak or you began to detox? Decisions which could be seen as hurtful or have dragged you in a more closed-off direction are usually not your true, higher self, but rather are influenced by copper, negative energies, and triggers. Try as best you can to focus on positive, higher conscious behaviours such as forgiveness, love, kindness, compassion, openness, understanding. Believe in the real you, which is always positive towards yourself and others.
11. Seek support and guidance from those who understand copper toxicity and the detox roller coaster. Copper toxicity is very poorly understood. Though people and practitioners will offer you their advice, they rarely have true understanding of the extent of changes that copper can cause in an individual. Make sure the actions you take are based on advice from those who've taken the time to really understand the effects of copper toxicity.
12. Psycho-therapy, recommended to help reduce the destructive effects of the superego (also known as the Judge (Malter, 2001) which copper gives rise to, and emotional support, are both very beneficial. In fact, psychotherapy and counselling are highly recommended to help the individual cope with the rush of awareness and emotions that may return as the calcium shell dissolves.
13. Read & Research. A number of additional resources (books as well as links) are provided in the references section of this site.
14. Investigate your methylation. Methylation, a process that in most simple terms turns on systems within the body, is an extremely complex topic with many variants.
People may be over-methylators, normal methylators, or under-methylators. As copper initially increases, so too do the levels of the copper containing enzymes histaminase and ceruloplasmin, which then leads to histamine breakdown. Low histamine allows copper to rise further, and is a sign of over-methylation, which then leads to an overproduction of dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. This overproduction is not a good thing. High levels of copper increase the conversion of dopamine (the feel good hormone) into norepinephrine (leading to anxiety and later depression). On the other side of the coin, under-methylation stops those neurotransmitters from doing their job. When serotonin is not methylated, it becomes inactivated and leads to depression. Copper toxic individuals are usually (though not always) over-methylators. Studies show that high copper, low histamine, and over-methylation are traits found in the majority of paranoid schizophrenic and mentally ill patients. Methylation turns on the aforementioned neurotransmitters, and so even if your neurotransmitter levels on a test show normal, if they don't have enough methyl, they remain inactive and aren't able to do their job.
In the case of over-methylation, there is an under functioning of metallothionein, partly due to the lack of zinc which is required for metallothionein formation. Metallothionein is essential for the regulation of the copper / zinc balance, the body's ability to cope with and eliminate heavy metals, as well as affecting immune, digestive, and brain functions. Over methylation, as mentioned earlier, causes the overproduction of neurotransmitters including serotonin and norepinephrine, which can then result in high anxiety, reduced libido, confusion, and various forms of mental illness (especially paranoid schizophrenia). Other symptoms of over-methylation may include depression, frustration, sleep disorders, self mutilation/cutting, increased pain tolerance, weight gain, paranoid thoughts and/or auditory hallucinations, delusions, belief that people think ill of them, self-imposed isolation and/or withdrawal.
Under-methylation (histadelic) can interestingly enough also occur as a result of copper toxicity. High levels of bio-unavailable copper can lead to under-methylation by way of poor gut health. Copper is a natural anti-fungal and helps control candida. However, when copper becomes bio-unavailable, it's ability to control candida falters, and candida is then allowed to flourish. Candida impairs the methylation process. Furthermore, candida produces a toxic byproduct called Acetylaldehyde which, coincidentally, is also a byproduct of ethanol. Note that the following symptoms are all common between a hangover, a yeast infection, and under-methylation: fatigue, foggy thinking, irritability, depression, and headaches. The presence of gut bacteria by-products raises histamine. Meanwhile, those with gut issues will have reduced histamine-lowering-enzyme production, which makes it harder to eliminate histamine, thereby increasing levels. All these factors can mean under-methylation for the copper toxic individual. With under-methylation (typically a sign of high histamine and low copper (or rather high bio-unavailable copper)), neurotransmitter function, cell membrane function, and cellular energy transfer decline. Determining your methylation status can easily be done through a whole blood histamine test, assessed by a skilled practitioner in the field. Your methylation status may impact which supplements are best for you. Is knowing your methylation status required? While biochemically there exists very good scientific understanding of the methylation process, there is less clarity behind using methylation in a practical approach to clinical nutrition. While understanding one's methylation status can certainly be useful (as addressed above), it can also be a costly distraction from working with the fundamentals of nutritional balancing of which minerals should take primary importance. Addressing methylation without using HTMA is ignoring a major piece of the puzzle. HTMA should be the foundation, though investigating your methylation status may offer more clues.
"The mobilization and removal of excess copper can cause psychological and physical symptoms, including; PMS, fatigue and exhaustion, allergies, brain fog, headaches and migraines, mood swings, cry easily or for no reason, cold hands and/or feet, depression, dry skin, chocolate cravings, feeling out of control, paranoia, despair and hopelessness, arthritis and calcium spurs, constipation, tachycardia or bradycardia, poor concentration or memory, short attention span, spaced out, eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, overeating), anxiety, panic attacks, yeast infections (candida), aching or cramping muscles, hypoglycemia, insomnia, mind racing, obsessive thoughts, cysts, mononucleosis, low blood pressure, hypothyroid."
~ Julie Casper, L.Ac .
"The first factor that can cause emotional reactions is the association of memories with mineral patterns. It is well known that thoughts and memories may be triggered by such things as odors, music, or specific locations that remind the person of something from the past. What is less well known is that memories can also be associated with specific biochemical patterns. As we rebuild and rebalance the body chemistry a person may pass through a mineral pattern of 20 years ago. Suddenly, thoughts or feelings from that time can flood into consciousness. The change in body chemistry unlocks, releasing feelings that were dormant or subconscious. To suddenly experience these feelings can be frightening inasmuch as they can occur out of the blue, when one thought they had finished with or forgotten a particular situation or emotion."
As one eliminates copper through detox (even one properly monitored), patients will often experience the effects of copper "dumping". The dumping is simply the elimination of copper. Though many people have elevated copper, not all will experience the following detoxing effects. These effects apply more so to individuals who have accumulated a significant copper level. For those people, often the copper detox symptoms are frightening and very uncomfortable, and if the patient is unaware of what is happening they may stop treatment as it is too unbearable. Conversely, patients may also stop copper toxicity treatment if they feel they have improved by a sudden increase in adrenal strength / energy. By understanding that copper dumping and the associated symptoms are part of the detoxification process, patients (and their partners) are better able to endure what they are experiencing. Dumping usually occurs in cycles, and life can feel like quite a roller coaster for some time. Detoxing is NOT a quick process, and can usually take 6 months to a year or more, with many up and down cycles, until the health of the mind and body are restored. Women generally have a rougher and harder time detoxing than men, due to their higher estrogen levels and monthly cycles.
It should be noted that aerobic exercise, stimulant drugs, and increases in stress while detoxing can further exacerbate symptoms of copper elimination. These activities increase metabolic rate and cellular energy production which in turn can trigger copper dumps from cellular storage. Exercise, by stimulating the sympathetic nervous system, also reduces bile secretion, causing copper to get stirred up but blocking its elimination . The copper detox process usually brings to the surface some of the worst symptoms of toxicity, both physical and psychological. Many of the case histories here exemplify this. The importance of proper monitoring and support throughout the detox process cannot be over-stated. As noted, not everyone will experience severe copper elimination symptoms - it depends on the extent of the copper accumulation and the aggressiveness of the detox approach. "The mobilization and removal of excess copper can cause psychological and physical symptoms, including; PMS, fatigue and exhaustion, allergies, brain fog, headaches and migraines, mood swings, cry easily or for no reason, cold hands and/or feet, depression, dry skin, chocolate cravings, feeling out of control, paranoia, despair and hopelessness, arthritis and calcium spurs, constipation, tachycardia or bradycardia, poor concentration or memory, short attention span, spaced out, eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, overeating), anxiety, panic attacks, yeast infections (candida), aching or cramping muscles, hypoglycemia, insomnia, mind racing, obsessive thoughts, cysts, mononucleosis, low blood pressure, hypothyroid." ~ Julie Casper, L.Ac . In addition, other symptoms of mobilization and copper detox can include flu-like symptoms, decreased libido, acne, spaciness, disorientation, digestive problems, nausea, joint pains, and emotional detachment especially when accompanied by the calcium shell.
As one begins copper toxicity treatment / detox, it's not uncommon for the copper level on the Hair TMA to show up at an even higher level than before - this is simply the copper being mobilized. The copper released from storage into the blood as a result of detox is now free, unbound copper. Without adequate ceruloplasmin or minerals such as molybdenum to bind to the copper, the mental symptoms will worsen. This can also affect the ratios with other minerals (such as magnesium and calcium), and lead one further into a calcium shell. This is why changes in perception and personality are not uncommon during the detox phase. The calcium shell also helps slow down the previously racing mind while also numbing the patient to what is happening around them, both of which lead to a false sense of improvement. In effect, though some symptoms have "improved", other symptoms (psychological) are less obvious to the patient and can get worse. This is why detox must be done in a slow, gentle, and monitored way. Relationship struggles / break-ups are common during this time (forums are filled with these cases, and is explained further on the Emotions page). It's important to keep this in mind if you feel your relationship heading down the same path. Remember that you are not yourself during this time. As copper stimulates the old brain and weakens the neocortex, selected parts of reality and the perception of certain people and beliefs can get distorted, compounded by the rise in calcium which creates what has been described as an 'emotional cataract'. Over time, as copper is eventually eliminated, the calcium shell (which previously had numbed the emotions and blocked awareness of what was happening), begins to break apart. This breaking of the shell may be experienced suddenly, or in some cases gradually, with little sparks of old awareness, memories and feelings slowly peaking through as the shell disintegrates.
"When the shell breaks up, it is often described in the person's own words as a wall or a plate glass coming down or disintegrating. Or, it may be experienced like a dam breaking and a flood of blocked feelings rushes in an overwhelms the person." ~The Strands of Health, Dr. Rick Malter, Ph.D.
Another thing that can happen during detox is something known as "retracing". Retracing stems from a subconscious association of memories with biochemical patterns, similar to how hearing a certain song brings back memories of that time .
It's imperative that the overseeing practitioner helps the patient understand the long-term commitment required for copper detox. When the patient quits detox too soon (either because they 'feel better' or in some cases due to the unpleasant effects of copper dumping), the liver may have lightened its copper load and adrenal function may have improved, but the work has not yet been done to detox the stored copper that in the latter stages accumulated in the brain. The person can wind up being left in a pseudo-reality state psychologically as a result with selectively altered perception and diminished awareness of what's happened. Though the patient feels better and a blood test shows "normal", there could still be large amounts of bio-unavailable copper in the brain. Furthermore, other mineral levels will likely also be out of whack, causing a wide range of psychological effects. All of this can only be properly determined through HTMA, and this underscores the importance of being monitored constantly via HTMA throughout the often lengthy detox process, as well as the importance of working with a practitioner that, beyond just treating the liver or adrenals, understands the strong psychological connection copper has to the brain and thoughts. Without such proper guidance or HTMA testing, the patient can easily believe they are fine and determine they no longer need treatment.
There are a number of additional resources on the web which explain in more detail what one can expect, including http://www.arltma.com/Articles/CopperElimDoc.htm, and the numerous links on the resources page of this site. The book "The Strands of Health" by Dr. Rick Malter Ph.D offers not only one of the most comprehensive looks at Hair TMA testing, but should also be mandatory reading for all who are navigating their way through copper detox, both patients and practitioners alike, in order to understand the importance of precise mineral balancing and the consequences of not doing so properly.
"When you are fatigued, and cannot, or will not, do anything about it, the body often dulls your sensitivity. It reduces your awareness so you can continue to function. Often the person has no idea of the trouble he is in until you pull him out of it. This is frequently true of heavy exercisers. One reason for this is that exercise can give people a sense of physical and mental euphoria which is not warranted by their physical condition. Vigorous exercise can cause a release of narcotic-like substances from the brain and pituitary gland. This is why runners say they get a "natural high." ...The person is getting an exalted and exaggerated sense of well-being that is frequently NOT supported by a solid mineral base. What concerns us about heavy exercise is that it is so stimulating. It has the ability to prevent people from feeling bad when they should feel bad. It has the ability to block out awareness of an underlying fatigue."
As a result, a return to exercise too quick and too hard in a copper toxic burned out individual can further support a false sense of improved wellness and cause them to abandon further treatment. The exercise, just like adrenal stimulants, also raises sodium over potassium, increasing the stress response, further burning magnesium, further increasing the calcium shell, and further complicating the process of counselling the individual.
"Over 30 years ago, Hoffer and Osmond discovered that Vitamin C was helpful in the treatment of certain, not all, schizophrenics. We know today, from hair analysis research, that the type of schizophrenia that responds favorably to massive doses of vitamin C, is what we refer to as copper-induced schizophrenia. It is the accumulation of excessive amounts of copper in the brain, which is responsible for this particular type of schizophrenic behavior. Vitamin C causes copper to be chelated and removed from liver and brain reservoirs." ~ The Eck Institute of Applied Nutrition and Bioenergetics, Ltd.
"A great deal of energy is expended to hold on to resentments, frustrations, anger, guilt, rage, shame, and fears. Whatever energy may be built up by taking vitamins and minerals may continue to be drained and wasted in holding on to emotional conflicts and feelings that are not adequately dealt with.... Mineral patterns may remain out of balance because there is an internal psychological resistance to change. Until the person works through and resolves the emotionally conflicts, mentally, he or she will be blocked in changing their related adverse mineral pattern....When the emotional conflict is finally resolved, a tremendous amount of energy is freed up and a significant mineral pattern change may then take place."
As copper rises, so too does sodium, while conversely potassium levels decrease. The ratio between sodium (Na) and potassium (K) is known as the 'stress ratio'. As the Na/K ratio is allowed to rise, the intensity of stress rises, and one's ability to handle stress becomes less. The slightest irritation can cause intense agitation, and the person may act out in a reflex over-reaction that bypasses higher cortical intellect function. Balancing this ratio is essential to correcting a copper toxicity issue. The challenge is that emotional issues from childhood may block the correction of this ratio and even over-ride the effect of supplementation because the issues are imprinted in the brain and nervous system at a subcortical cell and tissue level. (I talk more about this in my article here). Further compounding this challenge is that if by this stage the calcium level has also risen to form a "shell" effect, emotions are numbed and awareness of certain behaviours and reactions is selectively blocked. If the calcium shell is a self-preservation mechanism ingrained since childhood as protection against some trauma, this becomes very counter-productive to self-care and healing, making it very difficult to resolve the mineral pattern through mineral balancing alone.
Indeed, beyond the HTMA and correcting nutritional imbalance, a big part of healing is spiritual in nature - identifying beliefs and possible childhood traumas that have not only led to the current condition, but are also blocking further healing. Protective mechanisms may have been learned in childhood in times when expressions of love were met with pain, and those self-preservation adaptations are now getting in the way of self care and self love as adults. Counselling to overcome fear and anxiety, healing one's emotional history of abuse or trauma, and helping the person move into a renewed state of self-love can be most helpful.
Copper toxicity perfectly demonstrates the intimate connection between mind and body, between biology and psychology, each influencing the other. Beyond the physical symptoms, we've also seen how excess copper plays a powerful role on emotional/mental health. It can also play a role in our spiritual growth. Excess bio-unavailable copper gets largely stored in our tissues, which also is where an energetic memory of our fears get stored. As copper gets stirred up and mobilized through detox, so too can old belief systems from our parents and childhood, along with traumatic memories and fears. If we're not careful, we then approach continued healing as if we're driving a car and deciding which way to turn based on what we see in the rear view mirror. We need to be mindful of this influence. We can also consider the view of Traditional Chinese Medicine which says that anger gets stored primarily in the liver. Many experts regard depression as a form of repressed anger. As one cleanses the liver through detox, these long-buried negative emotions of anger, fears, or traumas which we don't want to look at may come to the surface together with the toxic load. Awareness of this possibility can hold a key to continuing the journey, or giving up.
This is an opportunity therefore to examine how past hurts and beliefs may be affecting one's current behaviour, and to let them go so they no longer control and sabotage our lives. Did you inherit non-supportive beliefs from your parents? Are you now acting in a similar way or pattern as one or both your parents? Is there a trauma to deal with? As for fear, it is the greatest enemy that stops us in our evolution in life. Sometimes the greater our spiritual evolutionary 'reward' (awakening), the greater the fear that one must conquer first...and in the context of this topic, copper toxicity may be the catalyst that calls one to that challenge of growth. Forgiveness, of yourself and others, becomes the next step. In this light, a quote from the book 'A Course in Miracles' is well suited: "The world we see merely reflects our own internal frame of reference...Projection makes perception. We look inside first, decide the world we want to see and then project that world outside, making it the truth as we see it. We make it true by our interpretations of what it is we are seeing...We have distorted the world by our twisted defences, and are therefore seeing what is not there. As we learn to recognize our perceptual errors, we also learn to look past them or 'forgive'... Forgiveness means no longer living in the fearful past...Forgiveness is the most powerful healer of all... "
It can be helpful to take a step back and question your reaction to people as well as nutritional guidance offered during your detoxing process. If you've closed off a part of your life or an approach to healing during this time, that could be a clue to where the biggest hurt or fear exists, and thus the most important, albeit hardest, area to examine. Not to be confused with the way things may appear to be normal while under the influence of the calcium shell or other imbalances, those who put in the effort to truly heal themselves physically and mentally (arduous and long as the process often is), invariably refer to copper toxicity as the catalyst to their greatest spiritual growth and self-awakening.

Summary for the movie
The revolutionary science of "neuroplasticity" - a concept that expands not just our knowledge of how our brains work, but how we use them. For centuries the human brain has been thought of as incapable of fundamental change. People suffering from neurological defects, brain damage or strokes were usually written-off as hopeless cases. But recent and continuing research into the human brain is radically changing how we look at the potential for neurological recovery. The human brain, as we are now quickly learning, has a remarkable ability to change itself - in fact, even to rewire itself. The Brain that Changes Itself is directed by Mike Sheerin and is co-written by Dr. Norman Doidge and Mike Sheerin and produced by 90th Parallel Productions Ltd. in association with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and ARTE France.

The objective of this study was to explain the determinants of the fresh vegetables purchase decision by Chinese urban consumers in Beijing including awareness and attitudes to food safety, and their willingness to pay (WTP) more for specific safety characteristics when buying fresh vegetables. The research rationale arises out of a history of food safety scares and scandals in China, and a national government response to promote quality assurance and safety through labelling. The primary hypothesis was that an understanding of food safety system s and product labelling, and trust in supply chain integrity would be key determinants in consumer willingness to purchase and pay more for safety assured vegetables. Based on a questionnaire survey of consumers in Beijing, the analysis found that the major factors underlying the purchase decision of fresh vegetables were product freshness, convenience and competitive price rather than assured product labelling. The decisions whether to purchase assurance-labelled vegetables and WTP more for chemical residue-free product were analysed by binomial and ordinal multinomial logit modelling respectively. It revealed a WTP moreof between 20% and 40%. Monthly household income was a key determinant of both quality assured product and WTP, together with degree of concern over residues, trust in reta iler and assurance labels and place of purchase. The results suggest much still remains to be done to build trust though rigorous monitoring and enforcement of food safety standards to improve supply chain integrity and consumer confidence.

eRoadArlanda
The eRoadArlanda is the first electrified road in Sweden. The project aims to reduce carbon emissions in transportation by electrifying infrastructure.
Road traffic in Sweden accounts for one third of carbon emissions, and a large part is freight traffic. To reduce carbon emissions, several solutions must be combined. By electrifying roads, existing infrastructure can be utilized to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. It is estimated that two-thirds of truck transportation in Sweden could be carried out on electrified roads by 2030, which would reduce energy consumption by approximately 10 TWh, corresponding to three million tons of fuel.
The eRoadArlanda project aims to make electrified roads a reality, and is part of the Swedish Transport Administration's pre-commercial procurement of innovation. The solution is based on conductive technology that uses an electric rail installed in roads to power and recharge vehicles during their journey. The test track is located on a ten-kilometer section of Road 893 between Arlanda Cargo Terminal and the Rosersberg logistics area, of which two kilometers has been electrified for a demonstration project. The vehicle primarily planned to use the electrified road is an 18-ton truck carrying goods for PostNord.
The project is being managed by a consortium comprising the following members: Elways, NCC, PostNord, ABT-bolagen, Vattenfall, DAF, KTH, Kilenkrysset, VTI, E-traction, GCT, KTH, Bilprovningen, Airport City Stockholm, Sigtuna Municipality, Swedavia, Arlanda Stad Holding, TraningPartner, FirstHotel, Frost Produktion, SMM Dulevo and Sandströms Elfirma.
Resources needed
The investment in the eRoadArlanda project is in line with the Swedish government's target of creating a fossil-free transportation infrastructure by 2030. Operating costs will be minimal, due to significant reductions in energy consumption arising from the use of efficient electric engines.
Evidence of success
The purpose of the project was to build a two-kilometer demonstration section used for a period of two years to determine how well the installation works under normal traffic conditions and in various weather conditions. In September 2017, the first commercial freight transport line started to run on the eRoad and in April 2018 the eRoadArlanda was inaugurated and is still in operation. Further on more commercial eRoads will be developed in both the Stockholm region and other parts of Sweden.
Difficulties encountered
New technology brings challenges – and that is why the eRoad has had a two-years testing period. Read more about challenges and how they have been managed here: https://eroadarlanda.com/faq/
Potential for learning or transfer
The goal of the project has been to generate knowledge, experience and decision data that is conducive to the creation of a platform for the electrification of larger transport routes in Sweden. The project can conclude that electrical roads are a climate-smart and inexpensive method of combining the advantages of rail with the flexibility of trucks. One of the learnings is that only the major routes, meaning 2 to 4 percent of the Swedish road network, needs to be electrified. Shorter journeys between these routes can be managed with battery power. Another learning is that the benefits exceeds the costs. In addition to the considerable savings for the environment, electrified roads result in a lower total cost compared with current fossil-fuel vehicles. And in a total electrified-road transport will cut fossil emissions by 80 to 90 percent andelectricity is a cleaner, quieter and less expensive source of energy, compared with diesel.

Poverty in the U.S.: It's worse than you're led to believe
By Tom Murphy on	 29 October 2015 2
There are two competing narratives about poverty in the United States. One is summed up best by commentator and TV host Bill O'Reilly, who argues that poverty is not all that bad in the U.S. and the majority of the poor benefit from the "free stuff" given to them by the government.
"If you look at the studies of poverty, most poor people in this country have computers, have big screen TVs, have cars, have air conditioning. This myth that there are kids who don't have anything to eat is a total lie," said O'Reilly in an exchange with guest Kirsten Powers (video at top).
The opposing view is detailed in the recently published book $2 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America, by researchers Kathryn Edin and H. Luke Shaefer. Their research finds that there are 1.5 million American households living on less than $2 per person per day – below the global extreme poverty line. About half of these households do not access the public benefits such as welfare and food stamps.
"Two dollars is less than the cost of a gallon of gas, roughly equivalent to that of a half gallon of milk" according to the book. "Many Americans have spent more than that before they get to work or school in the morning. Yet in 2011, more than 4 percent of all households with children in the world's wealthiest nation were living in a poverty so deep that most Americans don't believe it even exists in this country."
After reading the book, it is hard not to see O'Reilly as someone who is either grossly misinformed or willfully misleading his audience.
Edin and Shaefer illustrate their evidence-based findings with stories about families living in Chicago, Cleveland, the Mississippi Delta and Appalachia. The diversity of these stories show that the problem affects people across the entire U.S. They show how hard-working Americans are struggling to get by and how the social safety net designed to catch them when they fall is riddled with holes.
The book is a serious indictment of the Clinton administration's welfare reforms. Extreme poverty in the U.S. accelerated in 1996 after the changes took effect. It was partly due to the changes in criteria to qualify for aid – Temporary Assistance to Needy Families program (aka welfare) – which became more stringent. At the same time, fewer people are on welfare.
The book opens with Madonna, a single mother waiting in line to sign up for welfare benefits in Chicago. Showing up 30 minutes before the opening of the Illinois Dept. of Human Services office was not early enough, she learned. Only the people who arrived an hour early got numbers to proceed with applying for welfare. Madonna wasted her morning just to be turned away – yet another rejection when trying to get help.
The authors profile others who face varying hardships. Some manage to get food stamps, known officially as the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP), but for some families the aid doesn't stretch enough to feed their families for an entire month. Some families fail to qualify for the program because of technicalities. Even with these hand-outs that O'Reilly derides, families in this country are missing meals or not eating enough.
The authors detail the risk that some food stamps recipients undertake to sell their cards in exchange for cash to buy other things their families need. Instead of having the freedom to make choices that are best for their families, our poor cobble together salaries, public assistance and private charity in a hole-filled patchwork quilt. Many people bounce around between shelters and friends' homes – a situation that is particularly hard on their children – just to get by.
This complex system of "getting by" makes it difficult to find and keep a job. O'Reilly and others are quick to point out when a poor person has a cell phone, failing to recognize how critical a phone is to finding employment. In one case, a woman applied for jobs using the shelter phone number on her applications – a phone she could not consistently use and a signal to her potential employers of her current instability. The same woman managed to get a job cleaning foreclosed homes, but lost her job months later after she missed work, sickened by cleaning chemical fumes.
All of the families in the book are doing what they can to get by. In one case, a woman sells homemade food and treats. The process of re-packaging food or making fresh items and selling them out of the home is the kind of informal business that is found in places like Kenya, India and Haiti. Similarly, people engage in odd jobs and some women turn to prostitution to make ends meet.

"What is true about each of the families in this book is that they would all rather have a job than engage in any alternative forms of 'work' … the weaker the government safety net, the more the informal work described here will proliferate. We know what this kind of economy looks like, because it typifies economies in other, poorer countries in the world," Edin and Shaefer write in their book.
These people also do not want "free stuff." They want a chance to make a living and provide for their families. Having support and a hand up could help them achieve the stability needed to get on the right track. The authors make the case that a real safety net for the people who do fall can help keep families out of extreme poverty. Coupled with programs that provide opportunities to work, it may be possible to end extreme poverty in the U.S.
Making such changes requires a basic understanding of what it is like to live in poverty and the needs of the poor in this country. People must recognize that there are people facing choices that seem unconscionable in this country – young girls so hungry that they would trade sex for food from teachers willing to exploit them and employees working in inhumane conditions under the threat that they'll lose their jobs at any time.
O'Reilly and his ilk espouse the idea that success and stability are the result of hard work. To them, the poor are poor because they don't try hard enough and government handouts have made them complacent. $2 a Day resoundingly refutes this.
"[D]espite all they've been through, despite the abuse and trauma, the hunger and fear, despite the anger they carry with them at what they have endured, many of the everyday experiences of the $2-a-day poor are – truly – American to the core," Edin and Shaefer write.
For further reading, Dylan Matthews has a really good interview with the authors over at Vox.

CZ P09 vs P07 Review
CZ P09
Let us start off by reviewing the CZ P09 and dig deep into all the great features it has. This one was introduced sometime in the year 2009 and was the very first pistol to have the convertible Omega trigger system. For both duty and home defense, this handgun is a great choice!
This model double action/ single action pistol comes with two magazines, you can either chamber it in 9mm or 40 S&W. It flaunts a polymer frame with a black polycoat finish.
The bore axis is kept low with the slide that is positioned inside the frame rail. It features a 9mm Luger cartridge and a 19+1 round capacity, along with the interchangeable grip panels, which allow the user to size the handgun to fit their hand.
This thing comes with the decocker pre-installed, but you can change between the decker and manual thumb safety just as you get the handgun to use the one you prefer.
It allows you to carry the weapon around, locked, and safe. You can attach lights and lasers for customization, and the rail has five cross-sections, making it very easy to mount small accessories wherever you want.
The Omega trigger system is quite simple to use, and you can easily install components to customize and tune the gun. It shoots very accurately, which makes it ideal for both duty and self-defense. The overall length is around 8.1 inches, which is pretty standard for a full-sized handgun, and the barrel is about 4.54 long.
You will see that it does not take much time to reload the magazine and get it back on target since you can work the magazine release while keeping a good firing grip.

If you are one of those people who are mostly concerned with metal-framed pistols and tend to ignore the polymer-framed ones, you may want to take a look at this one. This polymer-framed handgun is truly an excellent one for the price it offers while having a lot of great features.
So you will really have great shooting experience with this, it is perfectly designed and is a perfect size. There is the frame over slide design that helps a great deal in making shooting easier and smoother.
However, one of the most important aspects of a handgun is the trigger, and this model does not lack in that area. The trigger is great and has a reset that is sharp with a breaking point that is consistent, but the best part is that it only gets better with time.
Although this thing comes configured as both a double-action/single-action pistol, you can easily configure it to be a single-action gun. In that case, the lever becomes a manual thumb safety.
Because the trigger guard features a forward accessory rail that you can use to attach lasers and lights for better use. This one is a medium-sized gun that is 7.2 inches long, the barrel being 3.8 inches, and weighs just about 1.7 pounds.
Because it has a 10 round magazine capacity and includes a cold hammer-forged barrel. The biggest disadvantage this thing has is the aftermarket support if you need to replace the parts or get holsters. However, overall this pistol is one of the best and a great steal considering all the great features you get for such a reasonable price.
Provides smooth shooting experience
Allows customization to add lights and lasers
May find it problematic to replace parts

CZ P07 or P09 PISTOL?
So that is all for the separate reviews, as you can see, both have a lot of similarities as they both use the same operating systems with modern design. Let us now look at what exactly are the things that make these two products different.
Upon first look, you will find that the two pistols are not of the same size. The P09 is a full-sized pistol that is made for open carrying, the P07 is more compact and a bit easier to conceal. The latter is better suited for those who do not want to carry around a full-sized gun.
Just like the size, weight is another significant difference between these two. The P09 is heavier, and you would do well with a sturdy belt to keep the full-sized gun. On the other hand, the P07 is slim and lighter, making it easier to carry around.
Fit and Finish
The CZ P09 has a sturdy tenifer finish that battles corrosion, and it comes with different frame colors. For the P07, the manufactures used a nitride finish on the slide.
The fit is also great with this one; you will see that the pistol actually feels quite good in your hand. Not everyone may find the P09 a good fit, mostly due to its big size.
Which one is better, P09, or P07?
Both of the handguns are great, so it basically just depends on you. The main difference between the two is the one in size. If you prefer full-sized guns, you may want to go for the P09. If not, you may want to check out the P07.
How good is the P07?
This one is an excellent handgun that is perfect for duty. It has a lot of things to offer and is a good one for the money.
Which one of the two P07 or P09 is better for concealed carry?
The P07 is definitely better for concealed carrying. It is much more compact, and you can easily conceal it as it is only medium-sized.
Is the P09 accurate?
Yes, the P09 is highly accurate. You will have a great time using the pistol as it does not take too much effort to make very accurate shots. This makes it good for duty and self-defense.
What are some similarities between P09 and P07?
So there are many similarities between the two. One of these would be that both of them can be easily customized to add lasers and lights.
Well, that is all about these two products and their differences. Despite the differences, both these products are of excellent quality and are very promising.
We hope you found this CZ P09 or P07 article helpful. If you are thinking about buying a handgun, make sure you check both of them out.

Does Career Happiness Start with Mental Health?
Wade Taylor at Movin' & Motivatin' Internet radio station invited me to talk about work and mental health. In observance of Mental Health Awareness month, I talked about how we can create opportunities for finding happiness in the work place. And, I also talked about helping working mothers balance the role of providers and career happiness.
In the first segment, I shared how I encourage my community of "Happy Campers" to face up to their life challenges. I also offers suggestions for harried, stressed out, women professionals.
Then, in segment two, I spoke to the needs of businesses, as they try to manage stressed out workers. The C-Suite and HR Managers should focus on "more happy" rather than "perfect" employees.
