Busy doing nothing

Le Petit Néant, a new annual drawing magazine, is designed to heighten ambiguity and avoid categorisation.

Le Petit Néant is an earnest name for a drawing magazine. French for ‘The Small Nothingness’, the title reeks of existential inquiry, writes Elizabeth Glickfeld.

The tendency in the past with the naming of such projects has been to liken the pencil to the sword. The connotations of introspection which the title Le Petit Néant invites are markedly different from the weaponry-inspired monikers of preceding independent drawing collectives such as Bazooka or Le Gun. The language of militant revolt and resistance, it seems, has been superceded.

The words, however, are beside the point. Le Petit Néant, like Le Gun before it (which began in 2004) originates from the School of Visual Communication at the Royal College of Art, a department which over the years has garnered a reputation as an incubator prioritising self-experimentation and development over immediate market demands. Conceived by second-year illustration student, Miguel Angel Valdivia under the mentorship of tutor Andrzej Klimowski (see ‘Theatre of dreams’ in Eye 14), and realised in conjunction with graphic design compatriot Giulia Garbin, the new annual magazine showcases drawings from all over Europe and also from Mexico and China.

Right and top: uncredited spreads from the first issue of drawing magazine, Le Petit Néant, edited by Miguel Angel Valdivia and designed by Giulia Garbin.

With little evidence of computer-generated imagery, Le Petit Néant is a veritable compendium of mark-making in all manner of pencil and ink. Garbin has orchestrated the predominantly black and white spreads into a rhythm of light and dark. Some of the black marks colonise the page in their crispness; others seem to emerge from the depths in nuances of shading.

Apart from the title, Le Petit Néant eschews paratextual conventions. The paratext according to French theorist Jean Genette refers to any peripheral text which acts as a formula of presentation or instructions for use as to how a book should be received or read. Le Petit Néant has no page numbers. There are no captions to the illustrations and while a list of the artists / illustrators is included, it has been purposefully concealed inside the gatefold of the front cover. None of the works is attributed.

Right and below: uncredited spreads from the first issue of Le Petit Néant.

Words and galleries are mediating structures and Le Petit Néant has been designed so as to avoid anything which will frame the drawings’ reception, fix their meaning, fit them into any genre or category, or pre-empt their value. The images are accordingly presented full bleed.

Added to this, with a cover akin to kraft paper and pages which are untrimmed for creep, as an object Le Petit Néant resembles a pile or folio of drawings casually folded in half. This accentuates the sense of immediacy. This being said, Le Petit Néant is by no means ad hoc. The production values are high and turning its pages one almost expects the residue of graphite to rub off on one’s thumbs.

LPN_7 The editor’s and designer’s reluctance to slot the magazine into any context combined with the emphasis on works executed by hand accedes to the idea that drawing and its immediate relationship to the body offer unimpeded access to an authentic self and unfettered imagination.

Yet being human, it is impossible to approach an image with complete innocence, to separate our apprehension of forms, motifs and symbols or to disentangle the act of looking from the act of reading. As either a producer or viewer, to engage with an image is to associate and to forge connections with the sum total of our memory and experience. As such one can’t look at Le Petit Néant without tying it to certain traditions, for instance, to the dream worlds of Surrealism or in some cases to distinctly cinematic perspectives.

LPN_3 Single figures in nondescript or empty interiors feature, as do bodies with obscured or missing faces. The double-page spread also proves a convenient vehicle for the mirror image. They are formal meditations on repetition and difference on reflection and the desire for interaction.

A baboon crouching upon a pile of banknotes holding a pitchfork elegantly rendered in the style of Victorian illustration is the closest Le Petit Néant comes to biting commentary. Playful but sombre, more searching than vehement, as a statement of independence, Le Petit Néant has a different mood from its anarchic predecessors. By on the whole rejecting the well worn strategies of irony and cool detachment, it instead seems to be feeling its way towards independence.

Le Petit Néant launches Tuesday 27 November 2012 at the Royal College of Art.

Better brain health | DW Documentary

Posted on Aug 02, 2020

Chocolate reduces stress. Fish stimulates the brain. Is there any truth to such popular beliefs? The findings of researchers around the world say yes: It appears we really are what we eat.

A study in a British prison found that inmates who took vitamin supplements were less prone to violent behavior. And in Germany, a psychologist at the University of Lübeck has shown that social behavior is influenced by the ingredients consumed at breakfast. But what really happens in the brain when we opt for honey instead of jam, and fish rather than sausage? Scientists around the world are trying to find out. Neuro-nutrition is the name of an interdisciplinary research field that investigates the impact of nutrition on brain health. Experiments on rats and flies offer new insight into the effects of our eating habits. When laboratory rats are fed a diet of junk food, the result is not just obesity. The menu also has a direct influence on their memory performance. The role of the intestinal flora has been known for some time, but scientists are currently discovering other relationships. So-called “brain food” for example: The Mediterranean diet that’s based on vegetables and fish is said to provide the best nutrition for small grey cells. Omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in fish, for example, protect the nerve cells and are indispensable for the development of the brain – because the brain is also what it eats!

LED: Lightsource of the future

What are LEDs really?

LED stands for "light emitting diode." A diode is an electrical component with two terminals which conduct the electricity only in one direction. With an electrical current, the diode emits a bright light around the small bulb.

The first LED was developped in 1969 and emitted a red light. Everyone has seen these LEDs, in television sets, etc. A couple of years later a green LED was developped and in 1993 the blue LED. Only by 1999 was a LED developped that produces white light.

The possibility to produce white LEDs brought with it a revolution in the lighting world. The small, economically and maintance friendly LEDs have a lot of benefits. There do remain a couple drawbacks though.

The operation of LEDs, and the different kinds of lightsources

Lightsources can be divided into 3 main categories:

1. Incandescent lightbulbs

They produce light when an electric current passes through a filament and causes it to heat up and glow. Because they are less energy efficient than other light sources, they are best used for lighting tasks that demands high levels of brightness.

Only 5% of the current gets turned into light, all of the other energy is lost as heat.

Halogen bulbs are a variation of incandescent bulb technology and produce 10% more light. Since recently halogen bulbs exist in energy efficient versions (aka Haloco lamps). These are 40% more efficient than the previous generation of halogen lamps.

2. Fluorescent bulbs

These bulbs work by passing a current through a tube filled with argon gas and mercury. This produces ultraviolet radiation that bombards the phosphorous coating causing it to emit light. There are many different types of fluorescent bulbs. They are all very efficient and produce very little heat, they are still more efficient than most LEDs!!! But they have one big disadvantage: the gas contains mercury, making these bulbs harder to recycle and bad for the environment!

3. Solid state lighting

These are LEDs. Light Emitting Diodes are bulbs without a filament, that are low in power consumption and have a long life span. Photons are created, and thus light, within a solid object (the semi-conductor crystal) when electrons pass through it from a high energy state to a low energy state. A low electrical current is necesarry to produce the wanted effect.

Light created by a LED

Everyone knows LEDs from seeing them in lounge bars, advertisement panels, .. We can see a lot of colors and dynamics in these lighting solutions. How is this possible?

As mentioned earlier LEDs produce a red light (these were the the first LEDs). By changing the composition of the semi-conductor, it's possible to create other colors, like green and blue. But to be truly useful as general lighting we need white light. To create this with LEDs isn't that easy. There are three techniques to achieve the desired effect:

1. Mixing a red, green and blue LED (RGB)

Using this technique it's possible to create a color dynamic, by controlling the three color sources seperately. The disadvantage is the possible color differences. The closer the three color sources are to each other the smaller this effect is.

2. A second way is to use a UV-LED, and use the built in red green and blue fluorescent materials to decide on a color.

3. A third way is to use a blue LED, and surround it with fluorescent material that absorbs parts of the blue light and in turn emit yellow and red light. These colors in combination with the original blue light will emit a white light. An important drawback is however that through this process the LED becomes less efficient and after a while there could be color changes.

The future of the LED

When light is generated with the aforementioned techniques then heat is also generated. Controlling this heat is important for the future of the LED and its many possible applications.

Most people think a LED will last them a lifetime. This is correct for certain and extremely low current LEDs (5mm LED, like the ones in televisions). The biggest disadvantage these LEDs have, is that they produce very little light (a couple of lumen), and for this reason their use is limited to orientation lighting. A life span of 50.000 hours is possible for these kinds of LEDs.

When the power of a LED is increased (the so called POWERLEDs) then the temperature increases considerably as well. Powerleds as well still only produce a couple of dozen lumen. Philips, one of the largest producers of LED lights, notes that these lights have a lifespan of 6000 - 30.000 hours. This is a far cry from the 100.000 hours you often notice in magazines and slogans! There are however constant improvements to how powerleds are cooled. This improved cooling results in more lumen and a longer lifespan. We have arrived at a point where almost every possible lighting problem has a LED solution.

Another important fact is that LEDs are very shockresistant. Which in turn makes them highly useful for vehicles.

LED and colors

By constantly improving LEDs we can now use them in our livingrooms, museums, stores,.. An important factor is the LEDs color. Noted in Cri or Ra. A traditional incandescent lamp was used as a standard and got the following index value: Ra100. This means that all of the colors of an incandescent lamp are considered perfect.

The method mentioned above to create light with LEDs, makes it hard to get good color with LED lights. The techniques to improve colors in a LED, have a side effect that they reduce the LEDs efficiency. It is possible though to create LED lights with a color value of Ra80 and upwards. To give you an example of what this means: TL-tubes and gasdischarge lamps until recently only had values of just above Ra80.

It's also important to note that the Ra values (the ones you find on the lamps packaging) don't mean that the lamp you just bought will be perfect for its intended purpose! The Ra value is just an average of the 15 (CIE norm) test colors. If the light peaks in the blue color spectrum, then the Ra values could be very high, however you would end up with a very cold and unpleasant light. The most important colors that produce a desirable light are R9 (red) and R15 (skintone). These colors also happen to be the hardest colors for a LED...

Dimming a LED

Dimming a LED is completely possible, but depends on a lot of factors. The driver (the electronic component that allows the LED to work) needs to be dimmable. The driver and dimmer need to be tuned to each other and the dimfunction is influenced by the amount and type of LEDs!

Remember that dimming a LED using an old dimmer will almost never work. To not damage the old dimmer, assume that you can't connect LEDs of more then 10% of the power output of the dimmer. Usually you'll find more info on the website of the producer of the dimmer to find the ideal combination of dimmer and LED lights.  Your best option still remains to just buy a specific LED dimmer. There are many affordable LED dimmers available now.

The ideal LED does not exist!

What we mean is, that there isn't a LED that would provide a solution for every possible problem, and there will probably never be one! The immense variation in LED lights, colors, lumen, lifespan, ... make it very important to consult your lightingspecialist!

Aug - Sept 2011

Tuesday 27th December

Firstly Seasons Greetings to everyone! It has been such a busy time here, where to begin!!

We are thrilled that in his first year of showing here Doug has triumphed as ‘TOP WEIMARANER 11’ and Tara is also joint ‘TOP LABRADOR 11’ thanks to everyone for the fantastic support over the year!

Please see new pics on Olly, Tara & Doug’s pages! Also check out planned litters for some exciting plans relating to Olive :o)

Catching up on the last few months ....

Midland Counties saw Tara triumph in the breed securing her 17th CC & BOB under Mrs Einir Mattulla and then going on to a group shortlist under Frank Kane. Dillon was also show on Utility day and won his breed class along with a credible second in a good Puppy Stakes under Ann Ingram.

In early November Ed judged bitches at the British Dalmatian Club open show :o)

Next up was the Weimaraner Club of Scotland Ch Show, where we arrived bleary eyed after 4 hours sleep having been to a wedding in Preston the day before. Doug however managed to cope with a handler complete with hangover to win his 8th CC this year and went on to RBIS under Mr Richardson.

BUBA came next and although Dillon took 4th in Junior (his lowest place ever in breed classes) however he did win a good 2nd in a large Junior Stakes under Mr Stuart Plane.

Finally LKA, Doug stayed at home as the society charge an admission charge however his children held the side up with Gunalt Limitless of Braithwaite and his sister Gunalt Adoptable to Lawdey both second in their respective Minor Puppy Classes qualifying for Crufts at their first attempt! Dillon held up the home side winning Junior Dog under breed specialist Mrs Penny Willis (Dallyvista).

Over the last few months we have attended a few Open Shows with the Dillon winning Best in Show & Best Puppy in Show at Treharris, Olly has also been enjoying himself with Group 1 and Reserve Best in Show at Barry & Penarth and Bristol Dog Club, as well as BPIS at Treharris and both boys winning their respective groups at Bridgewater & District!!

Tuesday 18th October

Well what an amazing few weeks we have had. First off was Belfast where we only took two dogs on Gundog Day. Doug won his 6th CC & BOB under breed judge Seonaid McAndrew (Brackenmist) and was shortlisted to the last six in the group under Mrs Pat Rhodes. Tara won her 15th CC under Gordon Haran and then went on to a 2nd in a strong Ch Stakes only being beaten by the beautiful Petit who also topped the group.

Darlington saw Olly take 2nd in a strong puppy class under Richard Morris and he then went on to 3rd in the puppy stakes under Graham Hill.

Next up was the Yellow Labrador Club Championship show and Tara triumphed again with her 16th CC and RBIS, breed judge was Mrs Margaret Rooth (Greenworth). This is the second year in succession she has won the CC at this club show :o)

After that was our most local show South Wales and what a weekend it turned out to be for us! On Friday Doug won his 7th CC & BOB under Mr David Brigden and then went on to Group 1 under Mrs Ferelith Somerfield, a truly amazing day! On Saturday we were back up to Builth Wells with Dillon the Dalmatian where he won his puppy class and went on to his third Ch show BPIB under Mr Malcom Smith (Dallyvista). Keeping up with his kennelmate Doug he went on to win the Utility puppy group under Frank Wildman of Wildax fame :o)

On Sunday we returned with both boys we didn’t go any further but they both put on a great performance, a truly memorable show!!! See the boys on the group boards on the home page!

A new page has been added for Dillon, watch out for more updates soon :o)

Sunday 18th August

Masses to report have been seriously slack with the updates!!
We have had a lovely run of shows, Doug continued his good run with a 4th CC under Mr MacKay at Bournemouth, Olly triumphed in Puppy Dog and was also Best Puppy under judges Chris Mills and Sussie Wiles. Olly then went on to Puppy Group 2 under Mr Stuart Milner!
Then on to WKC where Dillon won both Puppy and Novice, BP and the RCC under Mrs Elanor Bothwell, to say we were pleased would have been an understatement!!! Olive appeared at her first show since Crufts and was a creditable 3rd in a large PG class under breed specialist Mr Michael Quinney.
In between we went to a couple of Open Shows on the hunt for JW points, Langstone where Olly won 2 classes and BP under Mr Woodall and then went on to PG1 under Richard Morris. We also went to Monmouth Agricultural Show where Olly again won 2 classes was BP and went on to PG2. Dillon was BOB in a good class of Dalmatians under David Roberts!
Next show was SKC and a relaxed day with only Tara and Olly entered, Tara won Open and the RCC, Olly was again Best Puppy and completed his JW!!! The judge was Meriel Hathaway. :0)
Then we moved on to City of Birmingham where Dillon the Dalmatian was second in puppy and Doug was second in Open…….however Dillon did keep the flag flying with a win in the competitive Junior Stakes under Mr Stuart Mallard and won £50!! :o)
Then off to Richmond where we had a lovely day in the sun! Olly was first up with a second in puppy, Tara triumphed in Open again and was rewarded with the RCC, her 8th! Dillon was BPD & BP under Mr Barry Day and went on to 4th in the Puppy Stakes under Mrs Foss. Doug was the star of the show winning his 5th CC with BOB under Mr Colin Woodward!

Saturday 6th August

What a day at Paignton, Doug triumphs with his 3rd CC going on to BOB under Mr M Armstrong and another group shortlist under Mr Bill Bunce! Thanks to Louise Tope for the fabulous new photo on the Welcome page of Doug moving out in the group :-)

    It is downright disgusting to have seen a man living such a loose life. Having unprotected sex with so many different women. He is lucky he did not get aids, or all those women and children would not be here today. Not because he was such a good musician, the truth must be told that he lived a dirty love life. He had a wife, but chose to go to bed with anyone who was willing to give it up. Nasty Rastaman. He left a curse on other rastamen, because some of them to this day is living the same life. They are married and go to bed with anyone they feel like. No wonder Rita also got in on the act also. She had her fair share of men also. So him did a give har bun and she a give him the bakery.

    1. Kim Gottlieb-Walker says:

      Bob was very responsible about taking care of ALL his children…and they all grew up to be responsible citizens in music or in businesses that respect the earth. He was a GOOD man who brought good children into this world. There was nothing disgusting about the love that was generated and sustained and inspired.

      the only thing disguisting is ur judgement on i rasta man he didnt curse the rastaman people with ur closed mind did jah bless and let mankind open ur wicked ness to zion

  10. snow bunny says:

    He believed, pursued, and delivered peace and love. He accepted and loved those who were not his. He created timeless valuable messages that will echo for decades. He left behind a true family unit and they flourish because of his teachings. They are here and continue to spread his message of love and what is truly important in life. How they were brought into this world is not significant as to why they are here. Don’t judge it, embrace the results.

  11. peaceful waters says:

    I absolutely would advise against unsafe sex in this day and age but it is clear that Rita and Bob had some kind of agreement so as long as it worked for them, who the heck needs to judge anything???? Love is love is love…

  12. sia says:

    when you become a legend creating peace and love .. against hate and judgement then talk.. until then go some where with all the negativity ppl make mistakes but we all need to embrace the love.. one love

    there was nothing wrong with what bob marley did he was spreading love to all who wanted love i agree with him woman should stop taking birth controls and killing the future big up to bob for getting all his wonderful childeren that i love so much including my life julian marley nuff love to the marleys,the world would be a better place if everyone was like bob marley who was not afride to love and spread his love so all who thinks that he was a nasty rastaman can go to hell cause we love him any way,blessings to jah rasta to di world

  14. bsfilterson88 says:

    I like that he and his wife took responibility of each others kids not biologically the others. Not just in name but in phyical raising. They all seem very cool and well rounded, except for Rohan – cad and a asshole. Took the best years of Lauren Hill's life with 5 kids, no marriage; then just leaves her for another woman. No wonder she's crazy.

  15. Billy24420 says:

    Bob Marley was an amazing person. He did more for peace and the freedom of his people than any other single person. He wrote and sang songs about what he believed and felt. All of you people saying he was a terrible or disgraceful person are talking out of your ass. His wife was open to having other relationships and embraced all of his children as he did hers. Stop being afraid of other cultures and try to understand them you might learn something. I bet your all angry women whose husbands have cheated on them. Maybe if u went to the gym and tightened up a little your hubby wouldn't wander. Ha

  16. Dave says:

    Bob Marley, when it comes to living loose is no different than any other rockstar. What makes him an even better person is the fact that he took the responsability to acknowledge these children as his own and not go to great lenghts to hide them like most of them would do. it's not something most people would do. instead they would run the risk of leaving their children running loose in the world and possibly hooking up with each other in the future.

  17. Carly C 1986 says:

    Bob Marley was Sent to us from above to show our world

    Happiness and love His music sends tears to my eyes to think

    1 man Could make so much Sense For All to Relate to,through music is truely LEGENDARY he showed happiness without money without greed and without predudice BOB MARLEY I love you and My childrens Children will grow up to your music *****xxx one love

    Bob Marley was a great musician, activist and entertainer. However, it never ceases to amaze me that those who preach the Bible the most are the main ones who live a life that contradicts it. He had more bastard children than Ray Lewis.

  19. jbonner127 says:

    Bob Marley is a great "MUSICIAN" but as a husband he is so wrong for CHEATING with all of those women and yes it is disgusting for those of you who feel differently get checked for STD's asap! im so surprised Bob Marley didnt die of AIDS but its GOD choice to take him out with cancer at the age of 36 maybe he chose that slow death to punish him for commiting adultery….

  20. nina says:

    Mr Marley sure loved the ladies, but i cant be mad at him because he helped create some lovely men. xoxoxoxo

  21. LoveRules says:

    This response is for all those who act like they're s#!+ doesn't stink. Who died and left anyone to be judge? This is the culture in the Caribbean…men have extramarital affairs. I'm just surprised he accepted Rita doing the same. Do you know the dynamics of their marriage? Maybe they agreed to have an "open" relationship. Before they were married, I once read that Rita was dating both Peter Tosh and Bob Marley simultaneously. Besides, let those without sin cast the first stone! I'm sure you have skeletons in your closets….all of the children grew up contributing positively to the world. Where's your contribution? Let the King RIP!

    Jah in ma blood, Jah in me lyfe, jah giva dem Praiz!!

There are several audio bootlegs of the show and only one video version of the concert was recorded.  The man that owns the video footage has only released part of it (4 songs) to Nowell’s family, friends and VH1 to make Sublime: Behind The Music episode.  The live videos on youtube claiming to be his last concert are incorrect.

This is the final song “Hope” played by Sublime that night along with photos from the final concert.

After the show Brad partied into the night in San Francisco where Sublime was set to play the following night.  After checking into the Oceanview MotelBrad trailed off with someone to score dope and wasn’t seen the rest of the night and died the next morning.

Worker threatened to kill his employer and daughter

A worker threatened to kill his employer and his daughter in a dispute over car registration documents in Dunfermline.

The business owner was leasing out vehicles and was shocked to hear from the DVLA that they had been sold.

William Sneddon, the worker who leased out the five vehicles involved, went absent and then started threatening his employer.

Sneddon (32), formerly of Newton Crescent, Rosyth, now of Colinton Place, Glasgow, appeared in the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.

He admitted that between 7th and 9th August last year at Duncan Crescent, Dunfermline, he behaved in a threatening or abusive manner by repeatedly acting aggressively and making threats of violence towards his employer and his daughter.

Depute fiscal Alex Piper told the court that the victim owns a car business and Sneddon worked there for a period, initially on vehicle repairs.

Latterly he was allowed to deal with the leasing of vehicles. On 9th July last year he failed to turn up for work and by 12th July he was still absent.

The businessman called him and Sneddon said he had family problems but would be returning to work the next week.

However, the following week he said the difficulties had not been resolved and he was still not at work.

The man was also becoming concerned about payments not being made for vehicles which had been leased out by Sneddon.

The complainer then received a letter from DVLA saying five people were seeking V5 registration documents as new owners. He wrote back saying the vehicles had only been leased, not been sold.

Sneddon then contacted his employer threatening him that he would be killed by the people buying the vehicles if they did not receive the documents.

On the morning of 8th August, Sneddon called the workshop again threatening the man and his daughter, who also worked there.

“He said persons living in Glasgow would get them,” said the depute. “They became quite fearful.” They later contacted the police.

The court was told Sneddon had since moved from Fife to live in Glasgow.

Sheriff Craig McSherry fined Sneddon £500.

Short Review Round-Up Part 1!

Man, the movies I need to review have been pilin' up and pilin' up- so much so that I'm afraid of the pile. How can I dig myself out from under it? How can I dig myself out when it keeps growing? When I feel such désespoir du blog, I should remember my mantra: what would Arbogast do? He would cook up a fresh batch of Arbogast minis, that's what he would do. Now, I can't call these Arbogast minis, and calling them minis of any variety feels gauche. Therefore, I will call these Short Reviews. That there's poetry, I know. Don't be intimidated!

Ab-Normal Beauty

Art student Jiney (Race Wong) is bored with her work. She carries her camera around dutifully, but can't find inspiration in her surroundings. One afternoon she witnesses a fatal car accident and impulsively photographs a dead body- the thrill of capturing the delicate moments between life and death awaken a new passion. She moves on to photographing dead animals, going so far as to orchestrate their bloody demises at the butcher shop- as the cleaver chops harder and faster, Jiney furiously clicks the shutter.

Boundaries of taste, already strained to the breaking point, are obliterated when she captures a suicidal woman's plummet from rooftop to sidewalk. Though she thrives on the adrenaline rush, Jiney is troubled by all the death surrounding her- she begins to hallucinate. The model in her painting class begins to bleed- is this a manifestation of Jiney's guilt over dabbling in the macabre, or is Ab-Normal beauty going to turn into Shutter? Is this a cameras steal souls and the ghosts want revenge flick? I mean, it is an Asian horror film, after all, so it must feature vengeful ghosts, right?

Nope. That adrenaline rush that Jiney feels is like that provided by any other drug or extreme behavior; she becomes desensitized and she must push herself further in order to feel anything at all. You know how it is- you get hooked on the giddy feeling from a glass of Riunite, so you drink a glass every day. When a glass isn't enough to make you giddy, you start downing a bottle a day. When that no longer works, you chase that bottle of Riunite with a box of Franzia. When, after all that, you still remember that your life is a complete fuck-up, you drink everything in the house to ease the pain, right down to that jug of Jean Naté After Bath Splash your gramma gave you when you were 8 but for some reason it's still sitting at the back of your closet.

Umm. Anyway.

So, when Jiney brandishes a butcher knife during a photo session with a friend, you think maybe Ab-Normal Beauty will become that kind of movie and Jiney is going to go around killing people for the art of it all.

But it's not. As memories resurface and we learn more about Jiney, the film becomes something else altogether, something more compelling than the two movies it could have been, something with a bit more substance. I love that the ride didn't end up where I thought it was going to, and that the twists and turns of the narrative weren't cheap or present simply for the (unshocking) shock value of a twist.

With Ab-Normal Beauty (Sei mong se jun, 2004), the Pang Brothers have outdone themselves with regards to style. The film- virtually every frame- is so beautiful that I want to eat it. I wouldn't even bother with condiments- that's how delicious it looks. At times the film may be a little too stylish for its own good- some music cues don't really jive with the action, and the climax is almost too murky to enjoy but sakes alive, they know how to work the frame.

The Human Centipede

Oh, Human Centipede. You're perhaps the most anticipated film in recent memory, solely based on your freakshow concept. An eeeevil surgeon grafts victims' asses to other victims' mouths to fulfill his insane vision: to create a human centipede...say whaaaaat? I think reactions to the concept went something like this: "Gross!" That "gross" was then followed by "Why?" The answer to the second reaction, according to writer/director Tom Six, is essentially the first reaction: it's a gross concept, so he made a movie out of it.

Unfortunately, The Human Centipede is little more than a gross concept. That concept, of course, is revealed when you read a synopsis or watch the what is there to expect when the big reveal occurs long before you begin watching the film? Where can the movie go from, well, from showing the centipede? Sadly, it doesn't really go anywhere. Half an hour in you get your centipede, and then it all just sits there. Or rather, sometimes it sits there and sometimes it's made to crawl around. Regardless, not much happens.

Now, I don't think people are clamoring to see this movie because they think it's going to be some deep meditation on man's place in the universe or something. Let's face it- The Human Centipede appeals to that part of us- or, at least, that part of some of us- that wants to see something gross. A movie featuring asses attached to mouths and shared digestive tracts has to be disgusting, right? Like, the most shocking thing you've ever seen? Or, at least, the most shocking thing you've ever seen that's fiction, I guess I should say. I've seen about 20 seconds of 2 Girls, 1 Cup. I learned my lesson, and I think that my lingering childhood curiosity about gross things has been put to rest forever.

As such, I was happy to find The Human Centipede surprisingly tame. There's a bit of surgery, a bit of pus, and...not much else. It's not explicit in the least- rather, it's all implied. How this affects your enjoyment of the film (if "enjoyment" is the right word) is, of course, your bag, baby.

Without the expected shocks, though, what is there? Not much beyond some bad acting and a ridiculously over-the-top performance from Dieter Laser (best name ever) as evil Doktor Heiter. It had some enjoyable moments, but overall...well, who knew that ass-to-mouth could be so damn dull?

When Turistas hit in 2006, hot on the heels of Eli Roth's Hostel, I blew it off as...well, as a copycat of Hostel. "Torture porn" movies were en vogue, and frankly that ridiculously-named subgenre doesn't much appeal to me. However, the movie ended up on IFC recently and, I decided to give it a go- partially due to a "Why the hell not?" frame of mind and partially due to the fact that Olivia Wilde is in it. Even if it's the worst movie in the world, it's worth watching because come on you guys, she's so fucking pretty. Lucky me, it's not the worst movie in the world! In fact, I thought it was better than not the worst in the world- I kind of dug it.

To generalize, the horror community bitches an awful lot- mostly justified- about the vapidity of the genre's current output, about slickness of the retreads and rehashes, about how content seems to be dictated by boardrooms. Back in the day, horror filmmakers had something to say, dammit, about race relations and religion and society- all those Masters of Horror gave us substance with our scares, and why isn't anyone doing that today? It's all music videos and video games.

However, Turistas got me thinking (and talking with Heidi) about whether or not that complaint- that there's no relevance to these films- is true. There are undeniably themes explored in horror films made since September 11, 2001. Filmmakers are exploring the idea of "American vs Other" as countless groups of American ninnies travel to foreign lands and inevitably run afoul of the locals. Sometimes it's because the Americans have fucked up, and sometimes it's because...well, those foreigners are just plain savages, how do you expect them to treat outsiders? This sort of thing would never happen in the states! Obviously, I haven't done any in-depth analyzing of any of these movies, and I haven't yet figured out which side of the fence each particular film lies. Still, it's difficult not to notice a trend, and I think post-9/11 horror is worth exploring- films like Hostel, Turistas, Live Feed, Vinyan, Dying Breed, and The Human Centipede all apply. This isn't news, necessarily, but I'm just saying- maybe hindsight will reveal that some horror filmmakers have, at the least, intent where it was assumed there was none.

Mind you, I know that intent doesn't necessarily make a movie good, or render a horror movie effective. n this light, how was Turistas? Well, I said I kind of dug it. It's not nearly as torture-heavy as I'd anticipated. I'm not sure quite what it wants to be, if that makes sense- the "horror" aspects of the film take up very little of the running time, and there's an awful lot of "character development" time that doesn't actually develop any characters. The affair is helped by the serviceable acting from Wilde, Josh Duhamel, and, in particular, Melissa George. She's quietly becoming an unsung hero of indie horror, to the point where I'll pick something up if her name is on it. Why doesn't anyone ever talk about her?

Bill Walsh said...

Melissa George! I have to say, I enjoyed her a lot on the short-lived Thieves. It was fluff, but it was pretty entertaining fluff. Also she was good in 30 Days of Night. So, yeah.

CashBailey said...

I really didn't enjoy AB-NORMAL BEAUTY. In fact I think the Pang Bros films are as shallow and slick as any Hollywood studio horror film.

THE EYE was tolerable, but even that had to descend into loud, overblown Hollywood horse-s**t by the end.

AB-NORMAL BEAUTY is pretty much the prime example of that, where the movie suddenly turns into SAW for no good reason.

And HUMAN CENTIPEDE looks like a movie Takashi Miike wished he had made.

Maybe he still will. He's not averse to remaking things in his own style.

Andre Dumas said...

I have to ask you this because I too used the word "pus" in my Human Centipede review---but don't you always feel like that word is spelt wrong? I always want to put puss. but it's NOT puss it's PUS and pus looks wrong. It boggles my mind.

Anyways way to steal my review again!

I agree with you though 100%, watching them crawl around for the 100th time gets old and fast. Plus those tighty whitey diapers did nothing for them. Oh and if they crawled around 100 times, why did they have such a hard time crawling in the end part? Fatigue? Psssssh. I ain't buying it.

Stacie Ponder said...

What's that, Andre? Have I seen Single White Female? Why no, I haven't.

Yeah, the fact that they were on the lawn at one point and then later, couldn't navigate the stairs was a big ol' plot...hole. Or something.

I agree, 'pus' does look weird, but so would "buss" when speaking of the mode of transportation. Think about THAT, smarty!

Andre Dumas said...

Wise words. I guess I just like words with the "ssss" sound...also I once read that names which begin with the letter 'S" are the names of SNAKES!!!

Oh and if you throw a puppy out a window on me, I'm stabbing you with a screwdriver right where it hurts.

Kensington said...

How could you turn away from 2 Girls 1 Cup? I wish I'd never started watching it, but I couldn't look away because I was afraid that if I did, my mind would just fill in the blanks with even more gruesome imagery.

I still have the need to watch the Human Centipede for some sick reason.

Hud said...

Avoid 'Triangle', Melissa George or not!

Zane Grant said...

I wonder how many of those 'US citizens in international settings' films are making critique of tourism and corporations abroad vs. playing on savage foreigners. The pre-emptive attack on NAFTA found in 'Dolly Dearest' and other cursed doll factory movies were... ummmmm... definitely before their time?

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

I was planning to see The Human Centipede this weekend at IFC Center, and now I feel like I shouldn't. It just seems... well... not that great. I mean, I guess great is not what I was expecting, but I kind of thought it would rape my sanity, and I was maybe looking forward to that, and it looks like it won't. I posted a whole blog about how I was nervous about seeing it, and I was just waiting for your review (and B-Sol's), and then I would know for sure.

I just want to see something in the theater that makes me react in some way without boredom or anger.

Good thing I am seeing Harold and Maude in Chelsea tonight.

Stacie Ponder said...

Hud, whatchoo talkin' 'bout? I thought Triangle was pretty damn good! I really liked it- I was pleasantly surprised by how much, in fact.

Kensington, I was afraid that if I DIDN'T look away, I would throw up. It's 20 seconds of my life I really, really wish I could get back.

Zane, you make a great point about Dolly Dearest- it certainly presented controversial political viewpoints that you won't find in Child's Play. Who knew it was so deep? Plus, Tasha Yar.

Missy, I think you'll be bored by Centipede. I was. There's a huge chink after the construct is...constructed where there's nothing going on- like I said, where can the film go once you've got the centipede? And it's all definitely campy and much of it is played for laughs, which surprised me. The trailer makes it seem dour and terrible and serious,'s not. The concept is, but not really the execution. The guy playing the doctor is SO over the top, he's not even human.

hepalien said...

Just stay away from Woz, not even Melissa at her very finest, (pretending to be Angel from Home and Away agains obvs!) could save what is genuinely one of the most dull, ridiculous and disgusting (there's a rape with a broken bottle storyline) films ever!! It's so BAD, not even slightly enjoyable!
Not going to see the human centipede, usually I have a certain fascination for really awful/shocking things (I watched Antichrist, bleugh!!) but from the first time I saw the trailer I just thought... mmmm NO!
Question people, is the new NOES worth my time? I LOVE the originals, they're what got me into horror, and the BRILLIANCE of the last one, Wes Cravens New Nightmare (seriously, how could you not love it?!) makes me think maybe I should pass, BUT I think Jackie Earle Haley is one of the creepiest creeps ever, he makes me kind of want to go see it! Whats the verdict?

Stacie Ponder said...

I've yet to see NoES, but from what I've heard the consensus is: Haley's pretty good, the rest is terrible.

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

No! No! Don't see the NOES remake! No!

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

Sorry, that was an urgent reply. To be more specific, Haley does what he can, but he doesn't have much to work with. He gets a bunch of shitty puns. They aren't even really Freddy puns. They are somewhere between Freddy puns and actually entertaining, so they're like in this netherworld of unfunniness that just makes you uncomfortable.

And they changed Nancy's name to Holbrook, which just seems unnecessary.

And the mythology of Freddy is adjusted in a way that seems almost tasteless.

The kills are very, very boring.

There is a line at the end that is so boring that I honestly shouted out loud in the theater, "You have got to be fucking kidding me!" And no one in the theater was bothered by my outburst.

One more thing, they use this bullshit science theory that is really just laziness. How hard is it to make people fall the fuck asleep in a movie in which people are exhausted? Why do they to develop this bullshit science? Gawd, I thought I would explode.

Carrie said...

Thank you for the review of The Human Centipede...I've been dying to read it ever since you mentioned it! And I think I can safely pass on it.

And, Missy Y., it's funny because how they adjusted Freddy's mythology is actually the way Wes Craven originally wrote it (or so I've read). He changed it before they shot the original NoES. I think that was a good thing.

And I had managed to block out the time I saw 2 girls 1, yeah, thanks for bringing that image back into my head!! I don't even know if a whole case of Riunite will scrub that from my brain again. But I'll have fun trying!

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

Carrie, you're right. It was the way Craven originally wrote it (that he was a child molester); however, the way Platinum Dunes has chosen to conclude this mythology with Nancy is absolutely tasteless. It was handled very poorly.

I think, even though Craven eliminated that from the original script, it was present in the original NoES. I mean, child murderer kind of automatically implies molester, does it not? And certainly "filthy" child murderer, no?

Carrie said...

Very true, Missy Y., it was definitely implied in the original NoES. It was nice that they didn’t focus on it like the re-make. The way they related it to Nancy creeped me out...and not in a good way. It really just made me want to watch the original!

Rhubarb said...

This may ruin the magic for some people but I just felt I should point out that 2 girls 1 cup is in fact fake. A girl really does poop in a cup but a mixture of thick chocolate pudding with crushed pineapple and peanut butter for texture (sounds yummy) is what is actually eaten. This is apparently common practice in scat fetish films, there's usually a concealed cut or a substitution off camera.

I have, however, seen something much worse than 2G1C that was actually real.

Stacie Ponder said...

Honestly, it doesn't matter to me whether or not it was fake...the power of suggestion was extremely strong and that was enough!

P. K. Nail said...

I saw THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE in NYC last weekend, and Dieter Laser sat just across the aisle from me. I could hear him giggling, and it was awesome/nightmarish. This probably affected my viewing of the film, but I thought there was some lovely tension throughout the movie. I agree that once you know the concept, the damage to your psyche is done, without you even having to see the movie.

Oddly, what bothered me more than the, um, digestion scene was when they tried to climb up the stairs. Just THINKING about how much tugging was going on in those very delicate areas had me squirming more than anything else in the whole movie.

Kensington said...

Oh dear lord, what was worse than 2 Girls 1 Cup?

Anonymous said...

I think Turistas got a real raw deal. It was pushed as something along the lines of Hostel, and critics blasted it for being something it just wasn't. Even the one "torture" scene is not torture. The person is not torturing some girl for his pleasure. There is a reason and purpose behind the villains actions that is entirely different than Hostel. Turistas is much smarter than either Hostel film could have hoped to be.

Joyce said...

just so you know, my captcha word is forksno

Joyce said...

now my word is mormlike. i could do this ALL DAY.

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

Well, Ponder, I wouldn't say I was bored exactly.

It was... shit, I don't know. I'm going to write up a review when my brain stops bleeding (and when it's not almost 3am). You were 100% on when you said it was tame. I never thought I would leave saying I wasn't shocked.

Meh. I think... meh.

Stacie Ponder said...

I just found the whole middle chunk- mostly, where he was "training" the centipede- to be dreadfully dull and too silly. It picked up in the last quarter, though.

I think my favorite part was when he was telling his intended victims what he was going to do to them. It was absurd, sure, but terrifying.

I hadn't expected it to be played like such a black comedy. Eh.

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

Yeah, I hadn't expected everyone to be so in on the joke either. But then, I thought that was really only the case through most of the beginning. Like, whoa, up until he explains the surgery really, everything is a huge joke that we are all in on. But after that it sort of switches gears and it gets more serious. And I think it's still not really successful.

I started out annoyed about the whole flat tire situation. I just... um... argh... how... er.... you dumb assholes. You know?

Sick House Admin said...

I know I jumped in on this conversation WAY late, but eh...whatever. I feel the need to stamp my opinion here as well.

Re Human Centipede: Dieter Laser is awesome. I would say "Nuff said" but nuff has definitely not been said.

The movie was totally enjoyable! Sure it was silly. The whole concept is silly, but come on. Watching three people ass-to-mouth-sewn crawl around on the ground trying to escape a crazy german doctor, with a guy in the front that really can't understand a damn thing that's even going on? pure genius. Four stars, I say! Four stars!!

Re Turistas. You liked this pile of junk? I admit, Hostel was nowhere NEAR anything to rave about, but Turistas was (Olivia Wilde aside here)utter crap. Aside from the one nifty torture scene, which I STILL believe the entire film was built around, the whole thing was a bore. All the chase scenes through caverns and underwater and crap? C' least Hostel was made to be ridiculous and over the top. But Olivia Wilde? Yeah, smokin'. Yeesh!!

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

Sick House -- I just do not agree about Dieter Laser. I thought he was totally over the top, like a soap opera villain. (That's what I called him in my review.)

I don't think it was silly so much as childish. If it were silly, I would have enjoyed it. I mean, the entire production came out him thinking of the worst thing that could happen to you. I can just see the dude sitting there with his buddies getting drunk and saying, "Oh, no, it would totally be worse if someone stitched your ass to someone's mouth." He strikes me as a filmmaker without much purpose. Even to sicken is a purpose, and he doesn't even have that.

Though, after days of thinking about this, I think I can say one positive thing about it. It is the most hopeless film I have ever seen. That end scene there with Lindsay? That is where hope goes to die. Try to think of something more hopeless than that. Go ahead. You can't do it. And that is a bit of an accomplishment.

Sick House Admin said...

Tom Six most definitely DID have a purpose: to entertain. Whether it be silly, over the top, ridiculous, sickening, or was intended to entertain.

I'm glad you don't agree with me. If everyone agreed, we'd all be very, very boring. Dieter struck me as nothing short of AWESOME, and I'm sticking to my guns on that one.

I will agree with you that the ending to The Human Centipede pretty much embodied hopelessness. I actually really loved the ending, despite our arguments about the rest of the film.

Missy Y. (formerly A Case of You) said...

When I said purpose, I meant, I suppose a "higher" purpose than entertainment--though I hate that I've just used "higher." Even still, if entertainment was the goal, I wasn't actually all that entertained. Well, after he made the centipede, anyway. Before that I was laughing my ass off at the ineptitude of the two girls.

But yes, disagreeing is how this grand variety of films get made. This one, though, was not for me.

dementia13 said...

So, let's talk about Melissa George. I've seen her in some pretty good movies lately, "Triangle" being one. I didn't think she was very good in the "Amityville" remake, but that movie was otherwise a lot better than I expected. She's one of the few these days whose presence is enough to get me to watch a movie, because I've been having great luck with things she's in. I liked "Turistas", and I think that what you're saying about post-9-11 horror is very true in this case: international relations is very much the subject of this film. And not in a xenophobic kind of way, which is what Eli Roth exploits in "Hostel" (and even in "Cabin Fever"; despite its domestic setting, they're both movies that have to drive the travel industry crazy), some of the travelers' actions are very unsympathetic. And you know there are a lot of people going out into the world, and representing your country in that way.

Italy 2 Azerbaijan 1: Mixed night for match-winner Chiellini

10 October 2014 22:59

Giorgio Chiellini went from hero to zero and back again as he scored all three goals in Italy’s 2-1 win over Azerbaijan on Friday.

Much of the pre-match discussion had centred on Italy’s striking options, with coach Antonio Conte calling up Graziano Pelle at Mario Balotelli’s expense for the Euro 2016 qualifying Group H clash at the Stadio Renzo Barbera in Palermo.

However, Chiellini stole the show for both positive and negative reasons, having initially opened the scoring late in the first half when he headed in Andrea Pirlo’s corner.

Chiellini made an altogether more unwanted contribution when he mistakenly bundled the ball into his own net from a corner with 13 minutes remaining – the first goal conceded by Italy under Conte’s tenure.

However, the 30-year-old made amends with what proved to be the winner as he powered a header past Kamran Agayev with eight minutes left on the clock.

It capped off an eventful evening, both for Chiellini and Italy, but maintained Conte’s winning start to life with the national side.

Keeping the ball well, Italy began brightly as Simone Zaza failed to connect with Mattia De Sciglio’s cross from the left just four minutes in.

Claudio Marchisio was next to go close, as Ciro Immobile beat Rashad Sadygov and cut the ball back – only for the Juventus man to scoop his effort over the crossbar.

The hosts’ dominance in possession continued but Conte’s side had to wait until the 26th minute for their next sight on goal when an unmarked Leonardo Bonucci stooped to head at goal.

His effort was comfortably saved by Agayev, with Andrea Ranocchia next to go close with a headed effort from Pirlo’s cross.

However, Italy’s aerial threat eventually paid off two minutes before the break when Chiellini nodded home Pirlo’s corner, after Agayev had failed to collect the cross.

Zaza’s audacious acrobatic effort early in the second half almost doubled Italy’s advantage and the Sassuolo man was among the action soon after when he put Alessandro Florenzi’s cross wide.

Chiellini’s own goal, under pressure from Rauf Aliyev, looked set to deny Italy the three points their dominance warranted.

However, the Juve man’s relief was evident when he got himself and Italy out of trouble late on with a header from substitute Sebastian Giovinco’s corner to maintain Italy’s 100 per cent start to their qualifying campaign.

Living with MS during the Corona Quarantine 2020

So, ever wondered what the twilight zone would be like in our life time?  I think we’ve hit it.  As we venture into this awkward time what priorities are you making to take care of your self?

The corona virus or COVID-19 (when it becomes an illness) has changed our world.  There is much we can learn about the virus and also ways to find a healthy, happy life amongst this chaos.

I mean, do we really need 48 rolls of toilet paper or paper towels?  Do we need to hoard and ration like it’s World War II?  It seems that is what we are facing, along with the demands of face masks and gloves.

Braving the market

And some people don’t even believe its a real threat.  Well, as a high risk person, I do believe it is real and know there are things we can do to improve our chances.

I’m sharing some of my activities and, Some information about COVID-19 via my friend and fellow advocate Cathy Chester, and some survival tips from Dr. Terry Wahls and the Wahls Team.

MY Corona Quarantine ACTIVITIES
For the last month my days have been filled with projects, both big and small.  Things to get off my list because there is not a lot of work out there right now. People are hurting, investments are at an all time low, and money is being found between seat cushions and laundry piles in order to buy the next set of groceries.

I decided on a couple of projects that might interest you - in a way to stay a little happier and healthier during these stressful times.

My first one was a paint by number (PBN) that I received from Winnie’s Picks.  They based the image off a photograph I took in the Galápagos Islands.

Female cactus finch - Galápagos Islands - Photograph
The PBN was a bit difficult for me as I wanted to just paint and draw and feel the flow.  But, I loved the process, the puzzle of it all.  It also required patience and motivation, two parts of life that can easily slip during times like these. It took me awhile but with the quarantine and rainy days, the painting became a fun part of my day.

WinniesPicks set based on photograph

My version of the painting.

Then I took out my pencils and art supplies and just started doodling.  One day I’ll start messing with more media but this was a fun start.   The process is healing and anything with hand-eye coordination helps my cognitive issues and more.  I also love the tactile aspect of touching and drawing and getting dirty.

I also started a sour-dough starter.  Her name is Poppie.  Yep, I named her.  And she has produced a lot of good food for us. Now you’re thinking, hey, no gluten, or white flour, and usually I agree.  But in times of war and rations are low, one becomes thrifty and healthy.  Did you know that sour dough has been fermented and therefore the gluten is easier to digest?  I just learned that but in fact sourdough is really the only kind of bread I like.  I don’t eat a lot of it as it will mess with my MS, but have had fun playing in the kitchen.

Homemade sourdough bagels
In addition to starting my “Victory Garden,” the yard demanded some photography.  Or maybe I did as a mental release.

I was actually under the wether for a few weeks, recovering from a cold. It’s been easy for me to quarantine with my team, Mom and Dad.  They’re in their 80’s so are also considered at risk. We take it very seriously but also have fun. Walking, puzzles, and games, oh my!  Plus a lot of good cooking.  I’m feeling blessed and that’s a good thing these days.

I’ve also been enjoying my Cubii!  Remember that easy to use adaptive treadmill. Well, it’s one handy tool right now.  Cubii has special classes you can take online:
  • Carrie'e Cardio
  • Cubii Pyramid with weights or water bottles workout
  • Cubii functional fitness with Anne
  • Get your water bottle or weights ready for a Cubii workout

Click here to learn more about Cubii.

But these are just my escapes during this pandemic.  There are still many questions about the Corona Virus, COVID-19 and MS answered in the links below:

MS advocate, Cathy Chester, wrote a beautiful blog piece answering a lot of questions.  Click here to access her blog, “AnEmpoweredSpirit” or click on image below:

Another resource that has helped is the Wahls Team.  Here’s what they have to say:

INFO about COVID-19

I spoke with Dr. Terry Wahls and the Wahls Team.  They have a lot of great information over on their website - click here.  I found the following to be extremely useful:

“As always, there are many actions we can control and take immediately that can have a major impact on our health and the health of others. Here are several ways you can improve your resilience and increase the probability of an infection being mild. Remember to work with your personal medical team to reduce your risk of contracting COVID-19.
  1. Avoid all non-essential travel and non-essential meetings.
  2. Improve the quality of your diet by removing added sugars, white flours, and processed foods. A high–glycemic index diet dumps a lot of glucose (sugar) into your bloodstream, which decreases your immune cells’ effectiveness at protecting you from illness. Avoid paleo-approved treats, which still have too many high-glycemic ingredients. Focus on vegetables and meat (legumes and gluten-free grains for vegetarians and vegans) and get rid of sweet desserts. [1-4]
  3. Get enough sleep, preferably 7 to 9 hours[5]. Sleep is vital to keeping immune cells ready to fight viral infections. Sleep deprivation suppresses your immune system’s innate ability to act as the first line of defense.
  4. Wash your hands with soap and water vigorously for 20 seconds and avoid shaking hands to minimize the spread of the virus. I recently saw a great infographic that said “Wash your hands like you have just chopped hot peppers and are about to put in your contacts.”
  5. Wash your nose and sinuses twice a day with a Netipot®. This cleans your nasal tissue and reduces the virus’s ability to take hold.
  6. Monitor your temperature. If it is above 100 degrees F (37.7 Celsius), self-quarantine for 14 days.
  7. Stay home in your room if you become ill. If you develop a cough, sore throat, and runny nose do not go to work or frequent public places, which will spread the disease, perhaps to an at-risk individual for whom an infection could be deadly. Stay in your room and do not infect your family!.
  8. Check your vitamin D level. If your vitamin D level is below 20 ng/ml, you are at increased risk for infection. Even at levels below 40 ng/ml, the risk for a wide variety of poor health outcomes goes up. If your levels are low, work with your personal medical team to increase your vitamin D level to get to the optimal range (top half of the lab’s reference range). Do not overshoot your vitamin D level however as that may become problematic as well. See for tests you can order and obtain directly.
Here are some natural remedies that Dr. Terry Wahls uses often in winter to help her and her family avoid and treat illness.
    1. Eat raw garlic, which boosts your natural killer immune cells. Daily consumption of raw garlic can help prevent illness and reduce symptoms if you aren’t feeling well. When I develop symptoms, I eat raw garlic four times a day [4].
    2. Drink fire cider, which is a combination of apple cider vinegar, garlic, peppers, horseradish, and other herbs that amplify the natural killer cells. I take one tablespoon a day to prevent sickness and 1 tablespoon four times a day if I am already feeling ill.
    3. Get more vitamin C. Daily doses of 250 to 500 mg once or twice daily can amplify immune cell activity and strength. We can’t make our own vitamin C. When we become ill, our vitamin C needs to increase. Nutritional biochemist Linus Pauling famously recommended additional vitamin C at the onset of the common cold (another coronavirus) [7].
    4. Get more pre-made vitamin A (retinol). I recommend eating liver (6 to 8 ounces) once a week or take organic liver capsules. Liver is an excellent source of the pre-made vitamin A. You can visit for the brand of organ meat capsules I suggest to my patients who choose not to eat liver or organ meat.
    5. Get more zinc. Zinc deficiency is very common in those with chronic disease. Adding a zinc lozenge (5 to 50 mg) during the winter may be a wise protective measure for anyone worried about COVID-19 risk.
    6. Consume more fermented foods such as kimchi, sauerkraut, dairy-free yogurt, and kefirs. The probiotics in these foods help modulate the immune response, lowering the risk of septic shock in response to serious viral infections. Sauerkraut is also a good source of vitamin C.
    7. Elderberry syrup has been shown to be helpful against the influenza virus[9]. However, elderberry has also been demonstrated to increase the production of some cytokines[10]. For that reason, I do not recommend elderberry for COVID-19 related symptoms. It may increase the risk of cytokine storm and more severe reaction. For that reason, I would NOT use elderberry syrup at this time.
    8. Get more omega-3 fatty acids in your diet or in supplement form. Omega-3 fats are necessary to make resolvins, a signaling molecule that turns off inflammation once the infection is under control or the repair process has been completed [11]. An insufficient omega-3 fatty acid level may contribute to NLRP3 and NFKappaB, driving high levels of cytokine that cannot be modulated correctly by the lungs, leading to cytokine storm and lung damage. Grass-fed meat, wild fish, and fish oil are good sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Hemp, flax, and walnut oil are vegetarian sources.
