Racism and the Democratic Party
Contrary to what uninformed liberals believe, the Ku Klux Klan was an outgrowth of the Democrat Party, with overlapping membership rolls. The Klan was to the Democrats what the American Civil Liberties Union is today: Not every Democrat is a member of the ACLU, but every member of the ACLU is a Democrat. The same is true with the Klan.[1]
After the war, Democrat legislatures enacted "Black Codes", denying black Americans the rights of citizenship — such as the rather crucial one of bearing arms — while other Democrats (sometimes the same Democrats) founded the Ku Klux Klan.[1]
Even to this day, the KKK (as do similar racist groups and movements such as Black Lives Matter and La Raza) are supportive of the Democrats. During the 2016 United States presidential election, the KKK supported Hillary Clinton for President,[2] whose mentor, the late Democrat senator Robert Byrd, was a longtime KKK member.[3] This came after the Klan attempted, in possible collusion with the Democrats, to discredit Donald Trump and his campaign by publicly pretending to "support" him (and in so doing, fabricated a false link between the KKK and the Republicans and falsely labeled the GOP as the "racist" party, as the Democrats have done since 1964[4]). This backfired when Trump in particular, and the GOP in general, who have always opposed the KKK and despise what they stand for, rejected the Klan's "endorsement"; thus, the historic Democrat-KKK link, which has long been common knowledge,[5] was brought to light.
Thomas Sowell wrote:
- "Racism" is the trump card in the indictment of Republicans. But the cold fact is that the whole Jim Crow era in the South was dominated by Democrats.[6]
Examples of Democrat racism
- In the wake of the rioting in Charlottesville, Virginia on August 12, 2017, Wes Bellamy, the Democrat vice-mayor of Charlottesville under mayor Mike Signer and a local educator, was forced to resign his post in the Virginia Board of Education after he was exposed as a racist via his social media comments, which exposed his racist and sexist views.[7]
- Despite pushing to take down Confederate statues,[8] left-wing activists did not voice any objections to the numerous monuments named after racist Democrat leaders, such as Andrew Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, Lyndon Johnson, and Robert Byrd.[9][10]

What healing arts are?
The healing arts are creative practices that promote healing, wellness, coping and personal change. Traditional healing arts include music, art, dance/movement, poetry/writing, and drama therapies. These approaches combine artistic expression with psychological awareness and communication, and are led by therapists experienced in both areas.
In addition to the traditional healing arts, there are many other forms of expression, connection and self-development that can play a key role in health. These can be practiced with the guidance of a teacher or therapist, but can also be incorporated into your life on your own to gain enrichment, self-awareness, and pleasure.
Scientific studies tell us that art heals by changing a person's physiology and attitude. The body's physiology changes from one of stress to one of deep relaxation; from one of fear to one of creativity and inspiration.
Art and music put a person in a different brain wave pattern; music and art affect a person's autonomic nervous system, their hormonal balance and their brain neurotransmitters.
Art and music affect every cell in the body instantly to create a healing physiology that changes the immune system and blood flow to all the organs.
Music and Art also immediately change a person's perceptions of their world; by changing attitude, emotional state, and pain perception. As a result, they create hope and positivity and they help people cope with difficulties. hence they transform a person's outlook and way of being in the world.
In this way our projects helps you recover your natural rhythm and learn to shine again. You are not alone, we are here for you.

We pass Wonderia a couple of times a week and Joel always comments on how spooky and abandoned it looks, which puts it at the top of the list of Joel's must visit places. Last week being his birthday week, it was finally time to venture behind the colorful Wonderia gates to see Semarang's only amusement park in all its glory. And glorious it was, if you're into places that look like an old Scooby-Doo episode come to life. We read online that the park was built in 2007, how it managed to fall into this severe a state of disrepair in only nine years is unbelievable and amazing. The reviews around town are that Wonderia is old, janky and unsafe. Every parent that we surveyed came to the same consensus that they would never bring their children here and yet somehow that fact heightened the thrill factor for us.
First up we wanted to hit the Ghost House. We were the only people in the park so one of the employees stood by the ticket booth, asked us what we wanted to ride then walked over with us and proceeded to start getting the ride up and running. We rode the car about two meters before we heard a pop and the car stopped… for good. We each paid 10,000 rupiah to get in and 7,000 for the tickets (about $1.23 total per person) so dammit we were going to ride something! We waited while the employee shut down Ghost House and then walked us over to the one spot he was sure he could get working: the bumper-cars.
The food mural wall was odd but somehow not out of place. Shown here was one of the two headless chicken bodies with a happy garlic. The merry-go-round, like the Ghost House, was not in working order, but no one seemed to mind that I unlocked the gate and went in for some photos.
The Wonderia Monorail was functioning and it was also a horrible idea. The calm looking selfie I took was before this crazy train started moving. It looked about as old as Father Time and swayed back and forth with the steadiness of a drunk tight-rope walker.
All in all, Wonderia was pretty much exactly what we expected- a collapsing, technicolor dystopia. I'm glad we had the park to ourselves for our first visit because it added to the eerie mystique. Next time, we're coming back on one of the weekend nights when the parking lot is packed with hundreds of scooters and you can hear the music bumping from outside the gates. I'd be into seeing an Indonesian rock band here, however I'll definitely be skipping the monorail.

When I was living in Saint Louis, Dail was one of the first artists that I met who traveled for her art. She has dedicated a large part of her life to art and building art communities and is a beautiful force of hearting compassion, motivational energy
Travel Artists Hub: What is your artistic focus?
Dail Chambers: My art practice spans from cultural organizing, archiving and group creation to my studio practice which includes installation art, photography, and my overall inquiry with nature and the body.
TAH: How did you start creating art?
DC: Both sides of my family are creative people. On my paternal side of my family, we have multiple professional artists. The practice of witnessing, recreating and documenting the journey has been a part of my upbringing from a young age.
I am influenced by Kandinsky, The Heidelberg Project, and many, many writers. My favorite sculptor is Alison Saar. My favorite photographers are Lorna Simpson and Debra Willis. When I think of legacy artists, I think of Elizabeth Catlett and Margaret Burroughs.
TAH: Do you travel with or for your art?
DC: Yes, I've traveled to Tanzania and throughout the United States. I love California and the collaborations and exhibitions there have been welcoming.
TAH: How do you sustain yourself?
DC: I am a Reiki master healer, life coach, motivational speaker and administrator for Yeyo Arts Collective. I host motivational workshops, teach art to young people throughout the city of Saint Louis and beyond. At my best, I receive sponsorships, fellowships, independent grants, and art sales to keep the multifaceted work, going.
TAH: Can you tell us more about the Yeyo Arts Collective?
DC: Yeyo Arts Collective is dedicated to the creative empowerment of women and families. When we first began our group, we gathered out of the need to survive in our career path. As artists and creative professionals, we had no center. We wanted a holistic and just place to begin our dreams. Women with children, head of households, caregivers and emerging artists are a diverse representation of the Public.
By focusing on this portion of our population, we inherently create an inclusive environment of intergenerational and
Sankofa a Collective Mythology– A story about the connectivity of a small group and history of Saint Louis and beyond.
TAH: Where has your art led you?
DC: The practice of art making keeps leading me back to my mind. The essence of life is so precious and is always a conversation to be had. Whether I am in struggle with a social justice issue or comparing the gesture of a tree with that of a child, the deeper subject becomes my perspective.
TAH: How has travel influenced your art?
DC: The landscape is an inspiring gift/ Learning the terrain of rainforests. Mountains and streams has taught me how to approach the issue of technique in my studio practice.
Through travel, I have diversified my experience with nature, the elements
When I was in Tanzania I works in a small village off of Mount Kilimanjaro. It forced me to break down the language barrier and work with folks who were eager to know my story. Drawing helped in communication and more. There are some spaces that will welcome us, and there are some spaces that will repel us. It is for us to decide how to translate the experience into an expression of truth.
It is interesting to me how we long to experience the natural elements outside of our norms. Curiosity pushes us to reach for new experiences without the hierarchy that popular media engrains in us. I have found my own entertainment and inspiration through seeing new things in nature. As much as I've "always been an artist" is as much as I have always been an anthropologist, studying my self and connecting with others.
TAH: Have you seen your art influence other art, artists or cultures?
DC: I am still gauging my impressions. As a visual artist and holistic health practitioner, I have created a practice of healing social issues and embracing nature that reinforces texture, rhythm
My work hangs in the offices of Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra, has been acquired by the Missouri Historical Society and Museum, and featured as one of the inaugural artists for the St. Louis Art Initiative.
In 2018, my work was featured in 32 rooms at the new, Saint Louis, boutique Hotel: Angad Arts. The urban hotel sits in the midst of Grand Center Arts District and the central corridor of the city. The rooms feature a "
TAH: How has your art and travel connected you to the wider world?
DC: Art making is a cultural exchange.
TAH: Any Future Plans?
DC:We connect to the past when working with natural material; it contains social, historical and ancestral resonance.
Copper, coined as the blood of the earth, and clay, known as the body of earth together make up merely a representation of our existence in form, sculpture and installation. Each work stands as a display of life. The communion of being both tangible and intangible I constantly revisit in my art practice. The link between our past and our present I journey. Wrapping, sewing, locking and conjoining are traditional practices; historically linked to "women's work" that speaks of connectivity and relationship. I use this method most often in respect and as a communicative tool. The weight of living is inescapable. The scabbed tear is a sentiment of this reality.
Engage in each work in the same as a conversation. Find power in a common object, as we too are formed to be that. —Dail's Artist Statement
I plan to take my personal artist statement of belief and practice and invest my next body of work into exploring the complexities of shared experience. By engaging participants in a collaborative process of storytelling and installation, I plan to build community through the arts.
build community through the arts
The end product will be a series of installations alongside the personal stories from the communities that surround me. Our discussions will be strongly guided by recent happenings in the St. Louis area regarding the issues of displacement, gentrification, job access and public education.
The goal of the project is to connect social happenings of the St. Louis area with real life, living working people. Artists, blue collar workers, young people and the community at large all have valid perspectives and ideas. All of us have a story to be told; the project is an outlet for those of us who are underrepresented, silenced or marginalized in media and our city.
for those of us who are
Each installation will be developed from the "common link" within two or more stories or shared experiences. Whether the participant is explaining a point in time or explaining their work or trade, the story is the most valuable piece of the process. The installations will include key environmental and verbal language to guide the final artworks. The collaborators will be involved in the artmaking process and the depiction of their voice through open community critique, meetings and participation.
In my art process material carries meaning
I will mostly be working in clay and other like natural materials. In my art process material carries meaning. The funds granted to me through the stimulus will directly go to the following materials:
- Clay for the construction of figurative sculptures
- Media materials for the recording of stories and interviews
- Small art supplies including sponges, glaze, etc.
- Wood
The goal of the project is open up discussions on social topics in St. Louis, through individual voice. The art of storytelling will be mixed with visual markers for the audience to engage in.
TAH: Do you have any advice for folks interested in following in your traveling footsteps?
DC: Be prepared to expect nothing beyond being.

The Party and Government have determined small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as a driving force to boost economic development, modernization and industrialization. However it has been difficult for them to access bank loans so banks should find solutions to assist them.
|Secretary Dinh La Thang works with SHB in HCMC on March 17 (Photo: SGGP)
The statement was made by Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee Dinh La Thang while working with Saigon-Hanoi Commercial Joint Stock Bank (SHB) in Ho Chi Minh City yesterday.
Vietnam has 500,000 businesses including 260,000 in HCMC, most of them are SMEs, Mr. Thang added.
SHB chairman Do Quang Hien attributed difficulties in loan access to SMEs' lack of mortgages and weak management ability.
SHB has signed agreements with Vietnam Enterprises Association and businesses associations in Hanoi and other provinces and cities to solve these problems by loaning businesses with no collaterals but feasible trading projects.
It has also consulted for businesses to establish, develop and implement their projects as well as manage money currents, which helped increase the bank's loaning ratio to SMEs last year by 30 percent over 2014.
Another matter which Secretary Dinh La Thang referred to during the meeting was that students of Ton Duc Thang University's inventions have been patented by the U.S. Department of Commerce but they have lacked capital to commercialize these products.
The inventions include smart hospital cots and patient lifting equipments.
Chairman Do Quang Hien affirmed that the bank will work with manufacturers to bridge these students to producers and market their products as per Mr. Thang's order.
Secretary Dinh La Thang also proposed the bank to join hands with the city to implement seven breakthrough programs, focus on boosting production and trading and high added value services and contribute in developing the city into a specially civilized, modern and humane urban area with good living quality.
He also suggested SHB to help create a business startup wave among citizens, in which it should give priority to students who have good ideas.
The bank should bring faith and aspiration for residents and businesses to enrich instead of depositing their savings to take interest or investing in gold and US dollar when interest rate reduces, he stressed.
He put an idea in which SHB can build a venture capital fund for the youth to start up their businesses and the fund should be equitized.
Reporting SHB performance last year, the bank's director general Nguyen Van Le said that its revenue topped VND12 trillion (US$263 millio) in which services yielded 15 percent.
Mr. Thang said the ratio of service revenue too low and urged the bank to raise it up.
SHB is listed among top five commercial joint stock banks in Vietnam.

Everybody has chores to do. Lake Havasu home sellers are no exception. My Lake Havasu Seller Tip for this week is all about your "honey do" list. Before you put your home on the market, you may want to complete these items on your list first.
Lake Havasu Seller Tip: Honey Do List Before You List
Hiring an Agent
First things first. Unless you have time for marketing, showing, meeting with every inspector and coordinating all the paperwork, you're going to need an agent. So, the first chore on your "honey-do" list needs to be hiring an agent. Thus, my first Lake Havasu Seller tip for this week is to interview several agents before you hire "the one". What's their background? How long have they serviced the Lake Havasu real estate market? Ask for references. Discuss how they plan on marketing your Lake Havasu home. Do your homework.
Start Cleaning
After you hire a Lake Havasu REALTOR@ to represent you, my next Lake Havasu Seller tip involves elbow grease…and lots of it! Buyers look at everything. Clear out the dust bunnies under the beds. Clean out your closets. Scrub counters, floors, floorboards, windows and inside cupboards and drawers (yes, inside). Deep clean carpets, upholstery and window treatments, especially if you own pets. Move the appliances to clean behind there as well. Get rid of any cobwebs. You want to put your home's best face forward. You can't do that if all a Buyer sees is a mess.
Make a List
The next Lake Havasu Seller tip for your "honey do" list is to make a list. What kind of list? A list of any and all improvements and issues tackled while you owned the home. Did you replace the water heater? Replaced the roof? Upgraded your pool's pump? Any leaks found on the property? On your list, write down what was repaired/replaced, why and when. Detail measures you put into place to ensure that these issues won't arise again. It's better to let the Buyers know about these up front.
Check Your Front Door
This may seem silly, but most of us enter our Lake Havasu homes through our garage, not the front door. Make sure your key works easily in the lock. Then, check the doorbell to make sure it is in good working order. While you're at it, add a little oil to the hinges. Squeaks don't impress.
Before you list your Lake Havasu home the market, complete the tasks on the "honey do" list I set out above. You're more likely to end up with a better result that way. Contact me when you start your "honey do" list. I'm happy to discuss my experience in our local market, draw up a plan of action for marketing your home and give you references from my many happy clients.
Lori Dee Doerfler, Helping you negotiate through all the real estate noise in Lake Havasu City

Today is the anniversary of the patent for the first QWERTY typewriter.
Around 1860, Christopher Latham Sholes, a journalist for the Milwaukee News, began his quest to create a machine that could write words both legibly and quickly on paper. Sholes' design was not the first attempt at creating a writing machine, but it was the fastest and most efficient model available when he filed for his patent in 1868.
Sholes' great innovation was the QWERTY system (named for the arrangement of the first six letters on the first row of letters on the keyboard). As explained in Great Inventions, Sholes' design, coupled with the QWERTY letter arrangement, made his typewriter faster than a pen:
The secret of its speed lay in the keyboard design, which paradoxically slowed the typist down. Sholes arranged the letters in the now familiar qwerty sequence: this forces typists to move their fingers further than was really necessary to type common letter sequences but it gave the keys time to fall back into place after typing (1).
The name type-writer was coined by Sholes, who sold his machine to E. Remington & Sons in 1873. In 1874, the Remington typewriter hit the market at a price of $125. One of the first buyers was Mark Twain who completed the manuscript for The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn on his new machine, becoming the first writer ever to present a publisher with a typed manuscript (2).
Even today, in an era where metal keys have been replaced by electronic word processing, the QWERTY system remains the standard keyboard layout.
Wordplay enthusiasts have an entire category of words related to typewriter order. For example, the word typewriter can be written using just the letters on the top row of the keyboard.
Chris Cole's book Wordplay: A Curious Dictionary of Language Oddities lists the following additional examples:
-Other common words that can be written using just the top row: repertoire, proprietor, perpetuity.
-Longest common word that can be typed using only letters from the middle row: alfalfa.
-Longest common words using letters in typewriter order: weigh, quips, quash, quaff, quill.
-Longest common words using letters in reverse typewriter order: soiree, sirree.
-Longest common words using just the left hand on the typewriter: aftereffects, stewardesses, reverberated, desegregated.
-Longest common words using just the right hand on the typewriter: polyphony, homophony.
-Longest common word using alternating hands: dismantlement.
-Longest common word using one finger: deeded.
-Longest word from adjacent keys: assessed, reseeded (3).
A less esoteric type of typewriter wordplay is called the pangram. Common to students who are learning the keyboard, a pangram is a single sentence that contains all 26 letters of the alphabet at least once, such as: The quick brown fox, jumps over the lazy dogs. A common competition among hardcore word-buffs is to create pangrams with the fewest possible letters. It is possible to create a 26-letter pangram, but it is hard to do without resorting to obscure words and strained syntax; for example, try to decipher this 26-letter pangram: Cwm, fjord-bank glyphs quiz vext.
Here are some other examples of pangrams that use more common words:
How quickly daft jumping zebras vex.
The five boxing wizards jump quickly.
Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs (3).
Today's Challenge: Pangrams With a Purpose
How would you revise the title of your favorite book or movie using every letter of the alphabet? Imagine that a new Equal Usage Amendment for letters has been passed which states that every book and movie must be renamed so that every letter of the alphabet appears in its title. Try writing a panagramic title for your favorite book or movie.
The following are some examples:
The Sometimes Quixotic, Other Times Joyless Prince Who Lost his Zest For Life, Yearned For His Adulterous Mother, and Killed His Boisterous, Vile, and Godless Uncle. (Hamlet, The Tragedy of the Prince of Denmark)
An Extremely Vocal Wolf's Huffing and Puffing Quickly Jumbles Zany Pigs' Houses (The Three Little Pigs)
(Common Core Writing 3 – Narrative)
Quotation of the Day: If the monkey could type one keystroke every nanosecond, the expected waiting time until the monkey types out 'Hamlet' is so long that the estimated age of the universe is insignificant by comparison … this is not a practical method for writing plays. -Gian-Carlo Rota

Dr. Bruce Leff, Director of the Center for Transformative Geriatric Research and Lipitz affiliate, led a study team aimed at providing safe and effective hospital-level care in the home with support from the John A Hartford Foundation. The Hospital at Home model offers eligible emergency department patients transportation home to receive extended nursing care including at least once daily nursing and physician visits, tailored to the patient's health care needs. In addition to this, skilled nursing services, pharmacy services, respiratory therapy, diagnostic tests and treatments including ECGs, X-rays, oxygen therapy, IV fluids, IV antibiotics and other IV medicines are offered to patients in the comforts of their home. These services are provided until the patient is stable enough to be "discharged", transferring their care to primary care physician.

text: Seen about a half a football field away as I came out on my back gallery at dusk. I live close to an airplane corridor so I know what a plane, helicopter looks like and how it moves. It caught my attention right away (I was facing North West and it was hovering to the West right over a big tree). it looked liked 3 very bright red orbs agglomerated together (smaller than a helicopter but much bigger than a drone and no noise and NOT a shooting star). It was just hovering there (no green or white lights, no blinking no exhaust trail, no flickering/candle). I watched it for about 5. min before starting to really wonder what the hell it was when it started lowering. I went inside to get my camera and when I returned, it was still hovering. I tried filming it but the image was very blurry and pixelated because it was too far. After about .15 min it started moving horizontally, going towards the North, sometimes returning, sometimes going up or down...and all very fast. When it got to the North of my view it started circling but in a weird pattern going forward and back, up and down...and all with this fluid speed. Then it descended straight down below the tree line, out of sight. I was so curious about the object that I stayed on my gallery for another .30 min to an hour waiting to see if I'd see it again. It actually surprised me when I saw it shooting up and out of sight from behind the tree line! I still don't know what it was

The memory of going to the pediatrician and getting our jabs every few months or weeks is something most of us will remember, albeit with not much fondness. However, those jabs were serving an important function, keeping us safe from measles, polio, and a whole host of other illnesses that our bodies may not have overcome on their own.
Despite all that though, some groups continue to be anti-vaccinationists, campaigning against their use in public health and blaming them for conditions such as autism. So what are the real truths behind vaccination? We ask Dr. Helena Lim, consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist and Dr. Khoo Boo Aik, consultant pediatrician.

Medical Errors Kill 15,000 Patients Per Month
Study ranks U.S. health care system the worst among 23 countries.
Despite spending 16% of its Gross Domestic Product and double the median on health care expenditures compared to any other country in the worldthe United States recorded the lowest score among 23 countries whose health care systems were evaluated in a report published by the Commonwealth Fund. The Commonwealth Fund is an internationally renown private foundation established in 1918 that finances independent research on health care issues while issuing grants for projects designed to stimulate innovative health care practice and policy in the United States and other industrialized countries.
The U.S. health care system received a score of 66 out of 100 in the study which also concluded that by improving its health care system, the U.S. could save at least $50 - 100 billion in health care spending while preventing 100,000 to 150,000 deaths over a calendar year. The low score was attributed to the poor quality of life that the U.S. offers its patients rated the worst of those reviewed.
This is yet another reason why people are recommended to have a daily regimen that includes exercise, a proper diet and a healthy mental outlook combined with regular chiropractic care which allows the incredible human body to operate efficiently
a maintenance and preventive care program.
Weve all read and heard about overweight America. Combine an unfit society with a poor health care system and you have a recipe for disaster. The Commonwealth Fund report also gives the U.S. health care system failing grades regarding the prevalent overuse (and sometimes unnecessary duplication) of expensive medical services, a breakdown in communication and coordination among health care providers and an overall uneven quality of medical services provided.
It get worse. The United States scores 15th out of 19 developed nations on easily preventable deaths, like heart attacks, where timely medical care is crucial. We also had the highest infant mortality rate. Moreover, the study found that only 49% of Americans receive preventive care, and even privately insured patients or patients with Medicare dont necessarily enjoy better life-saving services. And for good measure, only a quarter of U.S. doctors computerize their patient files or keep digital records of written prescription.
Makes you want to go outside and start jogging, doesnt it? Our nations health care system is in the hands of our elected officials. But, you can do something that will have a positive impact on your long-term health. Change the way you live. Maintain optimum health while preventing future concerns. The Commonwealth Funds report is pretty clear. Our care system is not healthy so while its always best to stay fit, the importance is magnified while our nation searches for a cure to our health care woes.

Short-Term Enhancement of Creative Thinking
following a Chiropractic Adjustment
A recent article in the Chiropractic Journal of Australia reported on a pilot study involving the responses of ten subjects to a single chiropractic adjustment and how it affected their creative thinking. Creativity is the ability to generate ideas, "both novel and useful (or influential) to a particular social setting."
Interview responses of the subjects post-adjustment indicated 7 of the subjects elicited new directions in real-world creative tasks and six of the subjects reported renewed energy towards a creative project as well as improvement in their performance on the alternate uses test. The procedure for the alternative uses test is to write down as many uses for an object as possible during a ten minute period. For example, naming all the different ways you could use a newspaper was one of the questions used, as was naming all the different ways you could use a chair, followed by naming all the different ways you can use a shoe.
Once testing was completed, each subject was assessed for subluxation, which has been defined as: "A complex of functional and/or structural and/or pathological articular changes that compromise neural integrity and may influence organ system function and general health." Following the assessment, a chiropractic adjustment was administered. The adjustment has been defined as, "A maneuver in a specific vector, velocity, intensity of force and point of application that is intended to assist the body in restoring normal tone by correction subluxation in whole or in part." Following the adjustment, another version of the alternate uses test was administered and participants were interviewed two to eight days later.
Taken as a whole, the results indicated improvement in real world creative tasks during the two to eight day period after the adjustment, which is very exciting. Naturally, due to the small size of the study, these conclusions must be considered preliminary, pending verification by future studies.

Double-blind, placebo-controlled study has promising results
A recent article in the Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics reported on a study involving 326 children, ages 3 to 5, who participated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled test of the effects of probiotics on cold and flu-like symptoms.
Dr. Baranski, D.C. and Dr. Emen, D.C. follow health and wellness issues closely in professional journals and other publications. People often think of chiropractors in terms of treating neck and back pain, but many chiropractors are involved in all aspects of patients' health and well-being, including proper nutrition and illness-preventative measures.
In this particular study, children in the study group were assigned at random to get one of three planned dosages. One group received just a placebo, or common sugar pill with no therapeutic value. A second group got a single probiotic dosage, and the third group got a combination probiotic dosage.
The study participants received their allocated dosage twice a day for six months. They were then analyzed to determine both the incidence of cold and flu-like symptoms during the test period, as well as the duration of such symptoms. In comparison to the placebo group, those children who had taken the single-strain probiotic had a 53% reduction in fevers, a 41.4% reduction in coughing, and a 28.2% reduction in rhinorrhea, or runny nose. The combination-strain probiotic group fared even better. The incidence of fevers was reduced by 72.7%, coughing by 62.1%, and rhinorrhea by 58.8%.
The study also measured the duration of cold and flu-like symptoms in the study group, and, once again, there was a marked improvement for those children using some form of probiotics over the placebo group. The single-strain probiotics usage resulted in a lesser duration of symptoms by 32%; the combination-strain usage caused a 48% reduction in the duration of the symptoms. The study also concluded that children getting some form of probiotics had less need to take antibiotics during the test period and also were absent much less from nursery school or other group child care facilities.
Although this is just one study, more studies are needed before any absolute conclusions can be drawn. Further updates will be posted regarding this research topic.

Vertigo, 'ringing in the ears,' and hearing loss resolved
Meniere's Disease was first identified as a specific ailment back in 1861 by Prosper Meniere, a 19th-century French doctor who served as chief physician at an institute for deaf-mutes. His studies there led to his specialization in diseases of the ear.
Meniere's disease, or MD, is thought to affect one in 1,000 people, or about one-tenth of one percent of the world's population. Both sexes are affected equally, and the Caucasian race seems to be affected more than any other. MD's onset usually occurs between the ages of 20 and 50.
In this particular case study of a 40-year old female, the patient had been diagnosed with MD and had a 3-month history of vertigo and a 16-month history of tinnitus, which is often characterized as "ear-ringing" by lay persons, in her left ear. She also showed a low frequency hearing loss. According to the case study report, which was published in the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine, the patient underwent a course of chiropractic [care] consisting of spinal manipulative therapy in the cervical and thoracic spine, soft-tissue trigger-point therapy, home ice therapy (as needed), and cervical spine rehabilitation exercises.
The patient's initial course of chiropractic care consisted of three visits per week for two weeks. After just two weeks, her tinnitus was resolved and her vertigo was much improved. The patient continued with chiropractic care on a less frequent, maintenance program, and her MD continued to remain under control.
This study represents a very preliminary level of findings, and much more research is needed, but the results should offer some encouragement for people suffering with the symptoms of Meniere's Disease.

A child's sense of smell is restored
A recent article published in The Journal of Pediatrics, Maternal and Family Health reports the case study of an 11-year old female patient who had been diagnosed with chronic sinusitis and who had lost her sense of smell for one year.
The child's mother indicated that her daughter had been undergoing "escalating medical and pharmaceutical recommendations" and that she wanted to explore more conservative options for helping the youngster. The girl's symptoms included a persistent stuffy nose with concomitant difficulty in breathing and a lack of smell, even when her sinuses felt clear.
Loss of olfaction, or the sense of smell, is a common occurrence with the condition known as sinusitis. The inflammation associated with sinusitis and the build-up of mucus in the nasal cavity restricts the functioning of our olfactory cells.
In the case of this 11-year old, the mother wanted to try chiropractic care as a way to avoid using the drug regimen usually prescribed. The examining chiropractor found the existence of cervical and sacral subluxations in the child's spine.
A subluxation is a misalignment of the spine that disturbs normal nervous system function. Many chiropractors, including Dr. Baranski and Dr. Emen, have technology that allows them to conduct non-invasive thermal and Surface Electromyography (sEMG) tests to assist in locating where such conditions exist.
The patient underwent chiropractic care, including spinal adjustments. After the first adjustment, olfaction returned for six hours, as reported by the mother. After the second adjustment, this improvement lasted for 12 hours.
Two weeks after beginning chiropractic care, the patient was seen by her medical doctor, who noted a marked change for the better in the physical appearance of her sinuses. Chiropractic care was continued, and elimination of the subluxations and full restoration of the child's sense of smell was obtained after just three months. The patient and her parents decided to end all medications, and elected to continue chiropractic care on a periodic basis to monitor subluxations and obtain adjustments as necessary. The child's restoration of her olfactory senses has continued without interruption for more than four years.
Obviously, this is just one case study. More studies are needed before any absolute conclusions can be drawn. But this is an important step in helping patients to understand the options that are available to them in their health care.
Dr. Baranski and Dr. Emen's chiropractic practice features the InsightTM Subluxation Station. This technology is certified by the Space Foundation, a non-governmental agency founded in cooperation with NASA. The Insight has been used by 8,000 chiropractors worldwide to measure nervous system health and performance.
If you are experiencing chronic sinusitis and would like to schedule thermal and sEMG tests, please feel free to contact our office for an appointment.

The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) offers the following tips to help you avoid muscle cramps, neck stiffness and back pain while waiting in line. First, dress the part. If you're planning to spend the day shopping or strolling around town checking out the holiday displays, wear comfortable, supportive shoesnot high heels. It's also a good idea to dress in layers so that you will be comfortable going from outdoors to indoors, and vise-versa. And leave huge shoulder bags at home; bring only those items that are necessary for your daywallet, keys, cell phoneand consider carrying a fanny pack or a backpack rather than a one-shoulder purse. Once you're actually in line, there are several stretches that you can do to keep your legs from cramping and your back from aching. Start with your toes and work your way up:

A new study finds that low back pain care initiated with a doctor of chiropractic (DC) saves 40 percent on health care costs when compared with care initiated through a medical doctor (MD), the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) announced today. The study, featuring data from 85,000 Blue Cross Blue Shield beneficiaries, concludes that insurance companies that restrict access to chiropractic care for low back pain treatment may inadvertently pay more for care than they would if they removed such restrictions. Low back pain is a significant public health problem. Up to 85 percent of Americans have back pain at some point in their lives. In addition to its negative effects on employee productivity, back pain treatment accounts for about $50 billion annually in health care costsmaking it one of the top 10 most costly conditions treated in the United States. The study, Cost of Care for Common Back Pain Conditions Initiated With Chiropractic Doctor vs. Medical Doctor/Doctor of Osteopathy as First Physician: Experience of One Tennessee-Based General Health Insurer, which is available online and will also be published in the December 2010 issue of the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, looked at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessees intermediate and large group fully insured population over a two-year span. The insured study population had open access to MDs and DCs through self-referral, and there were no limits applied to the number of MD/DC visits allowed and no differences in co-pays. Results show that paid costs for episodes of care initiated by a DC were almost 40 percent less than care initiated through an MD. After risk-adjusting each patients costs, researchers still found significant savings in the chiropractic group. They estimated that allowing DC-initiated episodes of care would have led to an annual cost savings of $2.3 million for BCBS of Tennessee. As doctors of chiropractic, we know firsthand that our care often helps patients avoid or reduce more costly interventions such as drugs and surgery. This study supports what we see in our practices every day, said ACA President Rick McMichael, DC. It also demonstrates the value of chiropractic care at a critical time, when our nation is attempting to reform its health care system and contain runaway costs.

British researchers have discovered long-term low dosage aspirin consumption appears to be successful in reducing the risk of many types of cancer. In their study reviewing more than 25,000 individuals from previous trials, cancer deaths during the trials were 21 percent lower and 25 percent lower after 5 years post trial in those taking low dosages of aspirin. The most significant cancer reduction for those taking low dose aspirin was that of gastrointestinal cancer where death rates were 54 percent lower after 5 years. Findings indicated the cancer benefits increased with duration of aspirin consumption. Although aspirin consumption has an associated risk of stomach bleeding, given these new findings researchers suggest healthy people could consume 75 mg of aspirin daily from the age of 40 to 45 through to 70 to 75 years of age. After 70 to 75, the increase risk of bleeding may become too great.

The U.S. government has reported an estimated 15,000 elderly U.S. patients die each month in hospitals due to medical errors and unavoidable problems such as hospital infection spreads. In addition, an estimated 13.5 percent of hospitalized Medicare beneficiaries experienced adverse events during their hospital stays. According to the report, Hospital care associated with adverse and temporary harm events cost Medicare an estimated $324 million in October 2008. Clearly, mistakes and adverse events are occurring at an alarming rate and are also associated with an extreme financial cost. Unfortunately, its very difficult for the public to know the degree of medical errors made at different hospitals and which may be safer. Best bet - Do all that you can to become and remain healthy!

Simon wrote a poster with electricity formulas (from memory) this morning and applied one of them (Ohm's law) to his advanced lemon experiment.
We had already tried this experiment before but one lemon did not light an LED. Simon's become more of an expert this time around. He used not one but 4 lemons now and measured the voltage (in Volts) and the current (in Amperes).
And he employed his sister as assistant.
The four lemons gave us almost 4 Volts!
Simon used his voltage and current measurements to determine the resistance:
He then decided that 24 Ohms was too little and added a resistor to his lemon circuit:
But with a resistor the LED light did not light up – apparently the voltage became too low. After all, the voltage is the resistance times the current. I suggested Simon try it again without the resistor, with the almost 4 Volts the lemons made. And it worked!

Green Tea May Promote Dental Health10 years, 3 months ago
Posted on Mar 26, 2010, 6 a.m.
Japanese researchers find that drinking green tea reduces the risk of tooth loss and improves overall dental health.
Green tea is rich in polyphenols, compounds which have been suggested by previous studies to confer a wide range of health benefits, such as reducing the risk of Alzheimer's Disease and certain cancers, improving cardiovascular and oral health, and assisting in weight management. Yasushi Koyama, from Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine ( Japan), and colleagues assessed data compiled from 25,078 people, ages 40 to 64 years, who participated in the Ohsaki Cohort 2006 Study. The team determined that those study participants who drank one to two cups of green tea per day reduced their risk of tooth loss by 18%. Five or more cups of green tea daily was associated with a 23% reduction in tooth loss risk. Noting that previous studies have reported that green tea catechins may inhibit the action of oral bacteria linked to development of periodontal disease, the team concludes that: "The present findings indicate an association of green tea consumption with decreased odds for tooth loss."

What is Big Data Analytics?
Big data analytics is the process of analyzing large, complex data sources to uncover trends, patterns, customer behaviors, and market preferences to help make better business decisions. The complexity of analyzing big data requires new analytic tools, such as predictive analytics, machine learning, streaming analytics, and techniques like in-database and in-cluster analysis.
Big data is generally defined by the four Vs:
- Volume: Large amounts of data
- Variety: Many different forms of data, unstructured and structured
- Velocity: Frequency of incoming data
- Veracity: Trustworthiness of data
Beyond the sheer volume of data, the complexity of the data being gathered presents challenges in data management, integration, and analysis. But companies that bring together unstructured data sources like social media content with existing structured data like transactions are able to add context and generate new, and often, richer insights.
Further, big data describes the increased speed of incoming data originating from proliferating sources such as sensors, mobile devices, web clickstreams, and transactions, leading to the need for real-time analytics. Organizations that are able to capitalize on what's happening right now to prevent equipment failure, recommend an item for purchase, identify credit card fraud, and more, are quickly becoming leaders in their industries.
Finally, big data refers to the degree of data accuracy, precision, and trustworthiness. This is not to say that all data must be highly curated and clean, because messier data sources like social media can lead to new insights with certain analyses. But it's important that organizations know the quality, accuracy, and trustworthiness of the data used for insight generation and decision-making.
The Impact of Big Data Analytics
At the core of analytics is the transformation of data into insightful action that adds value for an organization. But the rise of structured and unstructured data, also known as big data, has radically transformed the function of analytics.
While big data has increased the opportunities available to businesses, it has also created more challenges for capturing, storing, and accessing information.
This revolutionary shift places significant new demands on data storage and poses new challenges for analytical software. It also creates powerful opportunities for discovering and implementing new strategies to develop a competitive advantage.
Realizing these opportunities requires two things: the technological capacity to gather and store big data, as well as new tools for turning data into insights and, ultimately, value.
Getting Value from Big Data
Big data analytics can combine data at rest (traditional structured data) with data in motion (real-time data) to identify opportunities and take advantage of them in the moment.
Big data is already a fact of life for most businesses, but the sheer volume and massive complexity of big data can feel overwhelming. Companies must work to make sense of and create opportunities from both data at rest and data in motion.
Big data represents an expanding set of powerful new opportunities. While it is unknown exactly how big data will be used one, three, or five years from now, the imperative to turn it into a competitive advantage means no company can afford to wait to take action.
Getting value from a big data investment requires being able to exploit the data effectively. Searching for the pieces of information that add ROI for an organization can be like searching for a needle in a haystack, which is why many companies report low ROI on big data investments.
To realize the potential of the big data era and minimize its risks, businesses need a unified data architecture and analytical and data visualization software.
The Benefits of a Big Data Analytics Solution
Visibility into the unknown
A robust big data analytics platform allows users to discover unseen trends and patterns in large, complex datasets that foster faster identification of strategic opportunities and threats.
Single view of the business
With a unified data architecture, companies are provided with a data-rich, consistent, and comprehensive window, increasing decision-making effectiveness and enabling users to operate with the most accurate and timely information.
Fastest time to action
Big data analytics increases decision-making productivity by enabling anyone in the company to anticipate situations and opportunities, to ask relevant and timely questions, and to get answers that lead to decisive actions.
Essential Big Data Analytics Capabilities
Advanced Statistical and Machine Learning Calculations
Data science discovery tools and statistical computing take large amounts of historical data and use it to draw out new knowledge and find patterns. Machine learning helps create and train powerful algorithms, which can improve business processes and add business value.
Streaming Analytics
You can automate action in real time by applying analytics and predictive models to live data. Using a visual development environment to quickly build and deploy streaming applications, you can enable operating systems to score data, send alerts, and take action at high speed for timely decisions attuned to the context.
Data Visualization
To visualize big data, you need simple statistics and native out-of-the-box data connectors that facilitate fast importing of data into intuitive dashboards. This will allow you to bring to your business users the ability to analyze big data sources, make truly data-driven decisions, and continually leverage dashboards that speak to the needs of the business.
Data Virtualization
Data virtualization provides a modern data layer that enables users to access, combine, transform, and deliver datasets with breakthrough speed and cost-effectiveness. With data virtualization, users get data that is not just up-to-date, but up-to-the-minute, easy to find, easy to use, and easy to understand.
Data Asset Management
Data management enables consistent accessibility, delivery, governance, and security of data to meet an organization's requirements using tools including master data management, data virtualization, data catalog, and self-service data preparation and wrangling.
Self-service Data Discovery
A big data analytics solution allows users across the organization to explore data and get answers without the need for specialized, in-depth data modeling. This reduces dependence on IT and dedicated business intelligence (BI) resources and greatly accelerate the decision-making process.

Daily Real Estate News

30-Year Mortgage Rates Slide
Spurred in part by unexpectedly weak economic data that could signal an impending recession, borrowing costs on long- and short-term home loans dipped during the past week.
Freddie Mac's statistics show a decline in interest on 30-year fixed loans to 6.07 percent from 6.17 percent last week, while 15-year fixed rates slid to 5.68 percent from 5.79 percent.
Adjustable-rate mortgages also registered lower interest, with five-year loans settling at 5.78 percent compared to 5.9 percent a week earlier and one-year products coming in at 5.47 percent for the week, down from 5.53 percent the week before.

We have recommended Florida as one of your best options to settle with your family. However, Florida is not only a good option to move into because of the economic and recreational opportunities, but also because it is one of the safest states.
South Florida has some of the best places to live; Weston, for example.
It is among the top 3 best cities to live in terms of security, after Greenwich and Parsippany.
It might seem a bit obsessive or controlling to want to have all the information about the place you plan to move to, but your safety and that of your family are things you can't put at risk.
Among the advantages of living in a safe place is your peace of mind. Knowing that you are safe and that your family is safe is something that has no comparison.
Your children can go play safely, or go out and have a quiet time.
In addition, your house will be safe when you are not there and, consequently, so will your assets.
Weston is a perfect place to live. It is among the cities with the best quality of life in all the United States. With parks, clubs, bookstores, markets, etc., you will never get bored.
You will be surrounded by a safe, multicultural and family-friendly community. A rich environment to grow.
Your children will receive a grade A education, both in public and private schools. All the wonders you dreamed in Florida.
We recommend you to consult with a real estate agent to help you with the location and purchase of the right property for you.
We'd be delighted to be useful. Contact us if you need us!

Vengeance is Mine
Posted by israeliteindeed on December 20, 2014
Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord. Therefore
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
If he is thirsty, give him a drink;
For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. (Rom. 12:17-21)
When the prophet Jonah was called to go to a people–who had persecuted his own people– with a message that God would forgive them if they would repent, he was more than reluctant. Only after nearly perishing in the ocean did he agree to obey. After they repented at his preaching and received God's mercy (chapter 3), Jonah admitted his motive for running away was that he didn't think they deserved that mercy!
But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he became angry. So he prayed to the Lord, and said, "Ah, Lord, was not this what I said when I was still in my country? Therefore I fled previously to Tarshish; for I know that You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, One who relents from doing harm." (Jon. 4:1-2)
No one deserves mercy. That's what makes mercy what it is. Jesus rebuked His disciples when they were too willing to call down fire on a town that did not receive Him (Lk. 9:51-56.) His rebuke was not a soft one; He said they were of another spirit!
There is a vengeance and a destruction that is coming–the Day of the Lord. God's enemies will be destroyed; we can be sure of that. In fact, they are already abiding "under His wrath." (Jn. 3:36)
But ambassadors of God's kingdom who are sent out with the Great Commission are not sent out to bring His wrath. They are sent out with an offer of God's mercy on the conditions of any sinner's repentance and faith. Unfortunately, some feel like Jonah–none too keen on seeing certain subsets of humanity receive God's mercy. Or, they would like to see those people redeemed, but only if it doesn't cost THEM something. Sometimes, being swept up in the worldly mindset produced by patriotism, and controlled by that mind instead of the mind of Christ, they leave the ranks of God's ambassadors and join the ranks of the world's destroyers of men. They may destroy by firing the weapons; they may destroy by supporting those who fire the weapons.
But our instructions, if we are God's children, are very clear in the Romans passage above. These instructions are repeated in different ways elsewhere in Scripture also. It isn't that God's instructions aren't clear or abundant enough; it's that men don't want to obey. They'd rather run from their responsibilities because they deem other people groups too far gone to be recipients of God's mercy.
But as God revealed His heart concerning the lost to Jonah (4:10-11), He will also reveal His heart to us, unless we are content with that "other spirit" that insists we take vengeance in our own hands. Unfortunately, many professing Christians are so taken up with the importance of their earthly country and personal safety, those perishing things trump the value of men's souls in their eyes. They are thus easily caught up in fleshly reactions to men, rather than spiritual war with spiritual weapons against spiritual principalities.
If Jesus came in the flesh today, pitying the souls of Muslims and calling us to be willing to die for them, He would likely be cast out as an apostate by the American church.
If a false savior came passing out carnal weapons and instructions for how to take Jerusalem from the infidels, he would gain some popularity–but only among those who are first rejecting the true King's instructions.

Hi - @mherger kindly accepted to incorporate a modification I've made to LMS for DSF/DFF playback that simply adds an information to the player about the actual format. It should have no impact on squeezelite or other ways to play DSD, but it should allow DSD to work using my UPnPBridge plugin.
This post is just to inform that the change should be pushed when @mherger can in the nightly builds, so anybody seeing a problem please tell (and blame) me.
It's really a tiny patch that again, is already ignored by DSD playback of squeezelite

Where to Go & What to see
Olu Deniz Beach & Blue Lagoon - on your doorstep
A beautiful sandy beach in a cove of tranquil turquoise sea. The famous Blue Lagoon of Oludeniz has calm, crystal clear waters which make it ideal for a variety of water sports and a very safe place for children to swim. Part of the Lagoon is now a protected a national park. Oludeniz is world famous for it's paragliding where you can jump from the top of a mountain and land on a wide stretch of beach, a spectacular adventure but not for the faint hearted.
Lots of Sports, Activities and Excursion trips from Olundeniz - the 12 Island Boat trip.
Hisaronu - on your doorstep
Hisaronu village is a tailor-made holiday destination, brimming with bars and restaurants to suit every taste.... literally! Located on the mountain pass of Olu Deniz and surrounded by stunning pine-clad mountains and natural countryside. This was formerly a small, sleepy, farming village 300 metres above sea level, which gives it an ideal climate, as it is slightly cooler than Fethiye and Olundeniz.
Ovacik is on the outskirts of Hisaronu itself and home to most of the accommodations in this area and generally within walking distance of Hisaronu village centre. It is 15 minutes drive from Kayakoy, a 'ghost village' filled with history and ruins and perfect walking countryside.
The Heart of Fethiye
Fethiye is a traditional market town set around a beautiful natural harbour. It is a big centre for scuba diving and boats leave from here for day trips around the stunning coastline. The most popular is the 12 islands boat rip, a relaxing way to spend the day, touring the beautiful coves and islands of the Gulf of Fethiye, with breaks for lunch and swimming.
There is a greater variety of shops in the narrow streets of the bazaar area, Paspatur, offering more competitive prices than those in any of the resorts. In the evenings head for this lively area for live music and Turkish bars. There is no beach in Fethiye itself but the sight of the ancient city of Telmessos, all that remains are the Lycian rock tombs, which overlook the modern town, a couple of Lycian sarcophagi and a small Roman theatre. Views are spectacular and its a must!
Kayakoy - close by
Ghost Town
One of the highlights of a stay in this area is a visit to the eerie ghost town of Kayokoy, literally 'stone village'. Once the Greek town of Karmylassos, it was abandoned in the 1920's. It has recently been the subject of renewed interest as it features as the setting for Louis de Bernieres noval, 'Birds without Wings' which provides a fascinating insight into life here and the period of dramatic social change which took place in the time leading up to the foundation of the Republic of Turkey. There are around 400 houses here together with churches and other public buildings. It can be visited by dolmus, on foot from Hisaronu or even on horse-back.
Marmaris nearby
A spectacular bay surrounded by pine-clad mountains and with its Ottoman fortress overlooking the colourful harbour, large yacht marina, a perfect sandy beach backed by restaurants and cafes along a palm lined waterfront promenade (For the adventurous it is possible to walk all the way to Icmeler), Fantastic night life centred in the cobbled streets of the old town close to the bustling Turkish bazaar. Just a few of the wondrous attractions.
8 kms from Marmaris this attractive holiday haven, once claimed to be a sleepy village now seeps across the cove with its famous palm lined sandy beach gently shelving into the calm waters and beautiful bay. With a quieter atmosphere than Marmaris, Icemeler is ideal for families or a relaxing holiday with its laid-back nightlife and waterfront restaurants.

You are destined to be Great.
We are all destined to be great. We just need to ask and seek so we find it.
This is about digging deep inside and searching for that innermost meaning.
The 5 Ws of questioning can be your tool:
Who are you now?
It's like asking yourself about your achievements up to this point in time. When you're able to realize what you've done so far and what you should do to make yourself better, you'll be motivated to achieve your purpose. This is important because we are part of a society and the people are expecting us to perform, to excel, to show our potential, and to prove our worth. This is one reality of life that we have to accept.
What do you like to do?
Your answer should root from your passion. When we say passion, it is that activity you're ready to perform, paid or not. It is something that you're heart, mind, and soul are prepared without expecting any in return. In other words, it's part of who you are, your innate inclination. List them all and pick your top three and start exploring them.
When should you take action?
Count the time you've lost, doing things that are outside your purpose. How many years are you like these and that? How much time will you need to act on your purpose? Let the lost time push you to begin your pursuit NOW.
Where will you start?
From within. You need to start with your own self by changing your mindset, attitude or personality. Passion and purpose becomes clear when you start believing in yourself.
Why find your purpose?
This is the only way that you will enjoy life and be excited about life. A happy and fulfilling life is the result of doing something you are passionate about, your purpose in life.
Think of a job applicant. He starts by asking himself about the work he likes to do, one that he's competent with. After which, he looks for companies in need of such job. Same goes when you want to find your purpose. You have to search for it. And this can mean, trying out different sort of things. In other words, Act. You have to stand up and walk. This may not be easy but it will be worthwhile.
Okay. So it's been years that you've been walking and searching for your purpose and up to now, there's no sign whatsoever.
What will you do?
Keep asking and keep seeking.
It's not going to be easy.. But DON'T GIVE UP! Examine your heart more. Explore more!
Eventually, life will give in and you will get the answer you are looking for.
Remember this:
"You were put on this earth to achieve your greatest self, to live out your purpose, and to do it courageously" (Steve Maraboli).
