Can anyone win the tax cut showdown?

The White House says the GOP is in disarray. But Dems are definitely confused. This mess will go past Election Day

Andrew Leonard

Poor John Boehner. Whether he meant it or not, the House Minority Leader's apparent concession on Sunday that, if faced with no other alternative, he would vote for extending middle class tax cuts without keeping cuts for the wealthy in place, spawned hooting from the White House and an uproar from his own party. Watching the Republican leadership in both the Senate and the House scramble away from the heresy that they would in any way, shape or form countenance a tax hike on the richest Americans would have been amusing if it wasn't so predictable.

Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., went so far as to introduce a bill extending all the Bush tax cuts, expanding estate tax breaks and providing extra relief for Amerians facing the alternative minimum tax burden. (Which party, again, is worried about the deficit?) But McConnell's bill will go nowhere, because Senate Republicans don't have the power to actually move legislation -- only to stop it. In the House, a parade of prominent GOPers -- including Eric Cantor, Mike Pence, and Paul Ryan -- all renounced Boehner's shocking betrayal of Republican values. If Republicans do retake the House in November, Boehner's chances of become speaker may have just taken a big hit.

But what does it all mean for the tax cuts? The key factor that makes this legislative fight different than all the others during Obama's first two years as president is the paradox that if no action is taken, something actually happens: the Bush tax cuts expire for everyone. This presents Democrats with a golden opportunity: Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi can introduce bills that would extend just the middle class tax cuts, and force Republicans to vote against continued tax relief for the majority of Americans.

That's what the White House wants, and President Obama has been consistently pushing exactly such a line of action for two weeks. With polls showing that a significant majority of Americans support raising taxes on the rich, the White House would appear to have exactly the kind of issue it needs to boost voter enthusiasm for Democrats as the midterms approach.

But it's not at all clear that either the Senate or House will fall into line. Democrats appear to be in more disarray on this issue than Republicans. Four Democratic Senators and Joe Lieberman are on record as opposing a tax hike. Nebraska's Ben Nelson has even hinted that he would support a Republican filibuster. In the House, Blue Dog Democrats are begging Pelosi not to schedule a vote. Their political calculus is equally simple -- in their conservative districts, they expect to be hammered by a Republican mantra: You don't raise taxes in a recession.

The Republican position surely resonates with some voters, though apparently not the majority. While policy wonks can and will argue that cutting taxes on the rich doesn't give you much economy-juicing bang for the buck, or, more fundamentally, that the evidence for supply-side economics is very weak, or that only 3 percent of American small business owners will be affected by the end of tax cuts for the wealthy, those arguments don't carry the same visceral punch as the simple declaration that it is wrong to raise taxes when the economy is slumping -- even if, for Republicans, it is always wrong to raise taxes.

Gaming out how this will unfold is tricky -- and a lot depends on how much pressure the White House can exert on Democrats who are running scared. For Obama, success will probably be measured by its ability to force a vote on a middle class tax cut, or at the very least, force a filibuster vote in the Senate. But if gets that far, my guess is it will get no farther. Republicans will filibuster.

If Democrats respond to Republican intransigence by cutting any kind of compromise before the election that keeps tax cuts for the wealthy in place, even for just a year, they lose. So the most likely scenario is that nothing happens until after the election, and success, for Democrats, is measured by whether they can minimize electoral losses by taking a clear populist stand against keeping taxes low for the wealthiest Americans at a time when government finances are stretched beyond the breaking point. Success, for Republicans, is steamrolling the midterm elections regardless of what Democrats do.

At least, that's what it looks like Tuesday morning. By Tuesday afternoon, the calculus could be completely different!

Expanding Naloxone to Reduce Opiate Overdose Deaths

The post-incarceration overdose death rates of heroin-dependent people in the U.K. are truly appalling. “Everybody knows” that drugs are readily available in prison, but this is an urban myth that has been conclusively disproved by careful research. In reality, most addicts can’t get drugs in prison and as a result their tolerance wanes. When released, they take drugs at their former dose levels, putting themselves at high risk of overdose.

The Guardian reports that widespread naloxone provision upon prison release is being considered in the U.K. Naloxone is an inexpensive opiate antagonist that will reverse the acute effects of opiate overdose (e.g., suppressed respiration). The benefits are temporary and the underlying addiction remains intact, but the extra 30-60 minutes of time (and oxygen) the drug provides to an overdosed opiate user can prove life saving. President Obama’s national drug control strategy endorsed expanding access to naloxone among public health and safety professionals, and I recently worked with some legislator friends on a bill of this sort in my home state of West Virginia. In that debate (We got through one House and made significant progress in the other), people fell into the same camps one sees in the U.K.: Some thought direct provision of naloxone to drug users is best, others wanted to expand access only to people who have contact with overdosed drug users (e.g., homeless shelter staff, firefighters) and some opposed any expansion in availability outside emergency rooms and ambulances.

A question not addressed in the Guardian article is whether extended-release naltrexone might have value in the period following incarceration. The injection lasts for a month and blocks the effect both of opiates and alcohol, and the user doesn’t need to do anything to maintain the effect. This is superior to naloxone in providing near perfect overdose protection as well as making substance use itself less rewarding, which could help the person quit permanently (it is noble to save a life, but if all you do thereby is put off a fatal overdose for a day or a week, you have not accomplished very much). To some policymakers, advocates, and treatment marketers, it’s all about picking a “top opiate rehab center”, but in fact the rate of relapse post-rehab is depressingly high, no matter how fancy the program.

As an interesting side note, ACMD chairman Les Iverson seems to be implying in the article that people in overdose may sometimes inject themselves. I used to think the same thing, but was surprised to learn when I spent some time with the main group in the UK that is pushing this program that that had never happened in their experience. No addicted user wanted to risk ruining a high just to stop a potential overdose, so any reversals were accomplished by fellow users, friends, family or public health and safety workers. That in itself is a powerful statement of how strongly drug addiction shapes behavioral choices.

5 thoughts on “Expanding Naloxone to Reduce Opiate Overdose Deaths”

  1. Does that last paragraph speak to the power of addiction, or of intoxication? Also, what are the issues with extended-release naltrexone? At first glance it seems like a no-brainer, except for the self-determination issues.

  2. Paul: I think both addiction and intoxication could both be in the soup at the decisional (or non-decisional) moment.
    On extended NTX there are no more self-determination issues than there are with naloxone, the person still has to decide they want to take it (sure the effects last beyond the immediate decision point, but that is true of a zillion medical treatments, e.g., surgery). Main challenge is that it’s much more expensive up front (e.g., maybe $500) but you wouldn’t need much foresight to see the great ROI from avoided overdoses and re-incarcerations.

  3. Paul: were you thinking that the authorities would require that injection as a condition of parole, especially for prisoners with an addiction history?

  4. Mobius: Possibly as a condition of parole, possibly just under coercive circumstances, but definitely while still in nominal custody. Of course, a parole officer could be asking people every time whether they’d taken their naloxone, and having no metabolites in your pee could be the same as failing a regular drug test…

  5. Tech geek question:
    I have tried repeatedly to open the White House Drug Policy document using Adobe Acrobat X. Each time I try, Acrobat encounters an error and has to close. This is the only pdf document that I have had this problem with. When I sent an e-mail to a friend who does not use Acrobat X, he was able to open the document with no problem; when he sent me the pdf as an attachment, again Acrobat X had to close.
    Anyone else having this problem?

Wolverine Cheerleading

  • Wed Sep 18th, 2019 1:30am
  • Sports

The Wolverine Cheerleaders returned to the field this football season with a small but experienced squad ready to bring their A-game.

With senior and team captain Stella McCauley, who has been cheering for Friday Harbor High School since her freshman year the team has a “great leader, teacher and role model,” at its helm, according to seven-year coach Stacey Rude.

Returning squad members and both Sophomores Layla Embler and Emily Walters are watching and learning what it takes to be team captain this year in the hopes of becoming co-captains next year after McCauley graduates.

“I have no doubt they will both be ready to take on that responsibility,” said Rude.

Junior Emily Vogel is the only squad member new to cheering this year but “is doing amazing” according to Rude.

Freshman Thea Flierl and McKenzie Federico, while new to the Friday Harbor High School squad both cheered for the Tiger Cheer Squad in years past and according to Rude are fitting right in.

Also new this year is assistant coach Ida Carlshagen who cheered on the competition level during high school.

“She is bringing in a new, fresh, younger perspective,” said Rude. “Having her has renewed my love for the sport and all of the girls really like having her new ideas to incorporate with what we traditionally do.”

With five days a week two-hour practices the squad will cheer for every Wolverine football game this season both at home and on the road. With the help of their coaches and team captain, the squad is planning a new Homecoming dance routine to be performed at half time. It will include “a lot of throwback music and a lot of new moves,” said Rude.

Climate Action Incentive inequality stinks

Share Adjust Comment Print

Can someone please explain to me why a family of four in Ontario will receive $448 this year for the federal Climate Action Incentive and the same family of four in Alberta receives $888?
Alberta has the lowest cost for fuel, natural gas and propane and has zero provincial sales tax. I pay between $1.20 and 1.25 per litre for gas, 77 cents per litre for propane and we have an eight per cent provincial sales tax.
I have written (email) to the ministers of finance and environment and received no response. I have also contacted the constituency offices of my MP and MPP and they could not provide any answer. One referred me to their office in Ottawa and that response was nothing short of ridiculous.
This is a lot of money and, goodness knows, we need all the help we can get living in the North.

Dr Subhadra Dravida – Transcell Biolife

Dr Subhadra Dravida is the Founder of Transcell Biolife, a company built on a proprietary adult stem cell technology platform while both the research and product offerings were panned out of the repository. Transcell Biolife (www.transcell.in) is the next-gen bio-bank for the intended applications thrusting on its derived applications and not as any form of Bio-insurance. The founding philosophy of Biolife operations was cryopreserving (storage at very low temperatures) precious material for rightful presentations. We believe that preserving and storing technology of the right material dictates its utility. This has been precisely the reason, why Biolife grew its business systematic (since 2011) attracting clientele who truly believe in quality and the purpose of bio-banking. From the beginning, it has been a great experience for our group, pitching our offerings and winning the trust of families who became our clients. We have evolved by integrating unique features surrounding stem cells for personalizing medicine to the extent of redefining the term “Personalized Medicine”. Today, Biolife is the only group that offers bio-banking products as a service with its potential use for therapeutic and non-therapeutic purposes aligning with the advancements in international standards. Biolife’s vision is to become Asia’s epicentre storing not just precious cells harvested from one-time events of life, but also have the meaningful whole-genome data acquired from them thus positioning ourselves as ace original researchers and a science-based team from India. This is beyond the stem cell banking story. All along, the group has been successful in creating a network of like-minded professionals, supporters, service providers, evangelists, field force as ambassadors of building this gold mine repository with larger than life interest.

Commercial Auto Insurance Coverage Symbols

Commercial auto policies specify the extent of coverage provided by using symbols to indicate the breadth of the protection.
The declarations page of your auto policy outlines coverage areas (liability, uninsured motorist, medical payments, etc.) with coverage symbols that apply to the type of insurance. The applicable symbols are numbers 1 through 9.

Symbol “1” is the broadest – “any auto.” Symbol “9” provides coverage for non-owned vehicles only. Using symbol “7” reduces the coverage to claims from vehicles listed on the policy only. Insurers sometimes use a combination of symbols – 8 and 9, for example, to provide coverage for hired and non-owned autos.

Symbol 1 in the liability section would provide coverage for any auto liability claim brought against an insured. Symbol 7 in the liability section would limit liability coverage to claims that come from a vehicle listed on the policy – significantly restricting the coverage.

Once you’ve made it to your alma mater’s alumni list, the question is a confrontation. Count it as the welcoming committee to the post-college party we’d rather skip out on—welcome to the limbo between graduation and employment.

On one hand, you want to give in to the capitalist bug pressuring you into becoming a responsible unit of society. Either your family is questioning you, or it’s just motivated by your desire not to feel like a useless bum. But then, you’ve spent four years (or more) going in and out of campus on a daily basis. You’re just not ready to dive into another nine-to-five without taking a breather—and with air that doesn’t come from a college building or a stuffy office.

And so, you’re presented with two cards: Should you jump straight into the workforce or wait a little bit?

Yes, you can press pause on reality

The concept of a “gap year” is straight out of a foreign dictionary. We’re taught to hop from one stage to the next, where family reunions are interrogations in disguise. Gap years are for globe-trotting European backpackers and travel is reserved for your retired tita’s pilgrimage, not a fresh grad ripe for employment. But we can look at it this way: Taking that so-called gap year isn’t necessarily selfish. After weeks of school-related burnout and mental health strains, it could just be a necessity.

This doesn’t necessarily mean exploring uncharted Thai forests like you’re neo-Indiana Jones.

So, what do you really do in a gap year, and how does it benefit you?

For those that can spare some of their savings, traveling has become synonymous to gap years. Solo travel, especially done in long periods of time, is gained perspective outside of your locale. This doesn’t necessarily mean exploring uncharted Thai forests like you’re neo-Indiana Jones—volunteer abroad, attend conferences and buff up that CV with experience. As part of your character arc, opportunities like these push you out of classrooms and cubicles, and into the chaotic outside world.

Read more: Okay, so you’re not graduating “on time”—who cares?

And while we can’t think of “gap year” without thinking of travel, it’s best to remember that these times don’t only revolve around that. One option to earn without committing yourself to the full office experience is through part-time work. To boost your soul-searching—while helping others in the process—take a chance at volunteering in NGOs. Various civic groups and organizations accept volunteers such as animal shelter Pawssion Project, education charity Renovate to Educate or your local museum like The Met.

Take a step back when things are too much—whether it’s through a whole hiatus after graduation, or those much-needed mental health days in between society’s call.

Taking a break also addresses the mental distress experienced by college students. For the Student Conservation Association, the post-grad break is a “creative timeout,” where fresh graduates can take a step back from “sources of stress, helping equip students [to enter the workforce] in the right frame of mind—and with greater capacity to handle emotional and academic stress.” And as reported by Quartz Magazine, analyzed in-depth interviews with gap year participants show that 37 of the 42 studied gained a number of non-cognitive skills that helped them approach their next phase with increased mental stability.

And it’s true: We all need to take a mental health break every now and then. With rising cases of depression, breaks shouldn’t be a luxury afforded only to the few, but an essential right in this time.

However, not everyone is privileged to take a time off

Therein lies one problem—a time off is considered to be something indulgent, as if the powers-that-be are saying, “You can have a little break, as a treat.” There are a lot of factors to consider before jumping into a hiatus and most of the time, responsibilities and circumstances win over at the cost of your personal wellbeing. For one, a lot of students are expected to step in as a provider for their families upon graduation. Graduating on time is an obligation needed to be met, as welfares of loved ones are at stake. Joining the workforce isn’t an option that’s simply shrugged off and pushed back on a whim—as the situation dictates, sometimes, it’s the only choice.

Read more: Acknowledging privilege and what you should do about it

Should you take a break? Take one for a breather, as we all need it. Take one if your thoughts still wander and you’re lost on what to do next (which is perfectly okay). Take one if you can, but if you can’t manage it, consider a few months or some weeks off. Whatever the case may be, recognize your limits and take care of yourself through available means. Take a step back when things are too much—whether it’s through a whole hiatus after graduation, or those much-needed mental health days in between society’s call.

Lakeview Security Cameras Let You See Your Property When You Are On the Go

To see who is knocking on your door or what caused that strange noise in your yard, you will want an Lakeview security camera. A doorbell camera shows you your front steps and a feed on your visitors or packages before you get the door. Exterior cameras are activated by motion, and feature waterproof and low-light designs with HD quality. Or simply keep an eye on the pets and kids with an interior, wide angle camera.

And with ADT Control, view current feeds from your Lakeview security cameras. You can even get a notification if your camera’s motion-activated detector was tripped so you can look in on things at your property.

Fire, Flood, and Carbon Monoxide Surveillance Can Help You to Relax

Safeguarding your home from intruders isn’t the sole way to protect your home and loved ones. Emergencies happen, and you want to be ready. Fire monitoring detectors in your Lakeview home monitored by ADT can notify you to not just smoke, but also if the temperature is rising too high.

A lot of standard smoke alarms alert your household to smoke and fire when you’re present. However, a monitored fire alarm alerts an ADT monitoring station when activated, even if no one is at home. Once the monitoring station is warned, the correct personnel will be alerted, based on your customized emergency plan. Also, consider getting monitored CO and water sensors to further protect your loved ones and house.

The Role Of ARPANSA

The Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) are the Australian Government’s primary authority on radiation protection and nuclear safety. They claim to “protect the Australian people and the environment from the harmful effects of radiation through understanding risks, best practice regulation, research, policy, services, partnerships and engaging with the community.”

YET the safety standards that ARPANSA maintain are severely outdated and fail to reflect the growing body of scientific evidence demonstrating harm. Set in 2002, the Australian safety standard does not adequately protect the public from cumulative exposure and the levels of radiation that have increased exponentially over the last two decades.

The ICNIRP Guidelines

The Australian ARPANSA standard is based on the outdated ICNIRP International EMF human exposure Guideline (1998), which was only ever based on short term and immediate health effects from thermal health effects (heating of tissue). People have more daily exposure than 5-10 years ago.

In July 2018 – ICNIRP commenced a review of its guidelines. In October 2018, the TU held the IMT-2020 (5G) workshop regarding the assessments of human exposure to the radiofrequency electromagnetic field and the review of the ICNIRP guideline was discussed.

The workshop notes stated that: [Extract] “It was noted that adoption of lower EMF exposure limits is likely to stifle innovation and deployment of networks and may impact on proven social, security and economic benefits that the technology provides to the community.”

Based on the above statement, a realistic public safety standard would have a major impact on economic benefits for higher processing capacity. If public safety is not the primary consideration, and if economic benefits has more weighting, then full transparency on this issue must be clearly stated. Public interest information would then include disclosure of risk assessment criteria and the rationale when establishing human exposure safety limits.

ICNIRP only provide guidance on human exposure limits, however, are not responsible on whether a technology is safe or not. This is the responsibility of governments and industry to ensure public safety before implementation of mobile technology based on microwaves and mmWaves. Setting an Australian safety standard based on an international guideline that is so far removed from scrutiny must effectively satisfy applicability, safety and probity requirements.

ARPANSA cannot give medical advice and while they do acknowledge those with Electro-Hypersensitivty, they do not factor such illnesses into public exposure policy, instead they refer affected individuals ……. “to seek medical advice from a qualified medical specialist.”

ARPANSA disclaimer on their website: This website is not a substitute for independent professional advice specific to your personal circumstances. Nothing contained in this site is intended to be used as medical advice and, in particular, it should not be used to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease in individual cases, nor should it be used for therapeutic purposes or as a substitute for your own health practitioner’s professional advice. ARPANSA does not accept any liability for any injury, loss or damage incurred by use of or reliance on the information provided on this website.

How Do Australian Safety Standards Compare to The Rest of The World?

Amongst other precautionary measures recommended as a result of the Australian Senate Inquiry (2001) into electromagnetic radiation, it was recommended that the exposure level of 200 microwatts per square centimeter be adopted. This was not approved and subsequently, since that time Australians have continued to endure higher exposure levels (currently this is 1000 microwatts per square centimeter) when compared to other countries that have significantly lower exposure limits.

How Has This Happened?

The several “conflict of interests” of both ICNIRP and ARPANSA members due to their relationships with telecommunications or electric companies undermine the impartiality that should govern the regulation of Public Exposure Standards for non-ionizing radiation.

“With 100% consistency, ARPANSA avoids all of the strongest available science in this area. With 100% consistency, ARPANSA has produced a stunningly biased document, whose positions are repeatedly and consistently contradicted by the strongest science and by large numbers of independent scientists. With 100% consistency, ARPANSA has failed to protect the health and safety of the people of Australia. With 100% consistency, ARPANSA has protected the economic interests of the telecommunications industry.”

Dr. Martin Pall

ARPANSA has ignored a large evidence base that challenges their position. The scientific evidence we have collated, presented and made publicly available demonstrates that there are biological/health effects occurring at exposures well below the ARPANSA standard. Therefore, ARPANSA’s claim that there is “no substantiated evidence that RF exposure at levels below the limits of the ARPANSA Standard causes harm to humans” is misleading. A risk management approach should be adopted urgently for RF-EMR with ALARA as the mainstay of this plan. Wireless technology is not risk-free as implied by ARPANSA’s claim of “no established evidence of harm”. Australians need to be informed of the risks so that they can make informed decisions when it comes to the use of wireless technology, particularly with regards to more vulnerable groups such as children.”

Dr. Martin Pall

“In May 2011 the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) evaluated cancer risks from radiofrequency (RF) radiation. Human epidemiological studies gave evidence of increased risk for glioma and acoustic neuroma. RF radiation was classified as Group 2B, a possible human carcinogen. Further epidemiological, animal and mechanistic studies have strengthened the association. In spite of this, in most countries little or nothing has been done to reduce exposure and educate people on health hazards from RF radiation. On the contrary ambient levels have increased. In 2014 the WHO launched a draft of a Monograph on RF fields and health for public comments. It turned out that five of the six members of the Core Group in charge of the draft are affiliated with International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), an industry loyal NGO, and thus have a serious conflict of interest. Just as by ICNIRP, evaluation of non-thermal biological effects from RF radiation are dismissed as scientific evidence of adverse health effects in the Monograph. This has provoked many comments sent to the WHO. However, at a meeting on March 3, 2017 at the WHO Geneva office it was stated that the WHO has no intention to change the Core Group.”

Actress Katie Cassidy Shares Her #NYFW Diary

See how the actress gets #UpNOut for the NYC streets.

Katie Cassidy knows a thing or two about the fashion game: The Arrow starlet spent two years playing Juliet Sharp on the world's most fashionable show ever, Gossip Girl—not to mention getting her big break as an Abercrombie and Fitch model when she was 18 years old. We got the actress to reveal what gets her #UpNOut for the action, from her morning must-have to the essentials she stashes in her purse.

I stole this [manicure idea] from The September Issue.

Hmmmmm... [Ed. note: Katie, we'll take 'em all off your hands if you want!]

Then I have myself some of this… it's my go-to breakfast.

And the day always begins with coffee. Coffee please.

One of my best girls, Lyndsey Eaton—she's also my business partner for TomBoyKC.com, our lifestyle site. The lady is my rock. Literally. Love her.

Bam. In my Herve. Ready.

Waiting patiently at Rebecca Minkoff for the show to start!

If you ask "What’s in my bag?" I like to say, "What’s NOT in my bag?" You never know what you’re going to need in emergency.

Love me some Kate Moss—yes, even for the gym.

Yes, I’m the only one at the gym during fashion week. Crazy? Yes. Stupid? No. I’ve been told to "pump up these biceps" for Season 3 [of Arrow]. Get ready for it!!

IMPORTANT! - Please note! - If buying in bulk, please rest assured, that although the total postage costs added up on the system may work out too high (I have to put the single item postage costs for each item, but of course it's cheaper (MUCH cheaper in most cases!) to send multiple items in one package), PLEASE ASK ME FOR A REVISED INVOICE if buying more than 1 item, and the postage will be adjusted DOWN to accurately reflect a combined package's cost! - I promise you, that you will *ONLY* pay my actual, cheaper postage costs - I'll even provide a photo of the receipt from the post office to confirm the actual costs, if you like.... :D

Please understand that as this is a personal de-cluttering endeavor, I have to deal with orders outside of working hours - ie. evenings, weekends, etc...

As such, please rest assured that I treat all orders as urgent, but that due to my situation, I am giving a realistic timescale of between 3-5 days from the date of your order payment, to ship your item(s) to you.

However, depending on timing, etc, you may well find that in the majority of cases, I am able to ship your items the following day!

Thanks again for your custom!

Rational Spirits produced Santeria Rum with the assistance of Lost Spirits Technology out of Silicon Valley. The rum is currently being made, in part, by an Apple Computer powered robot with a South African voice and a sense of humor. Tessa, as she is affectionately called by those who know her, is currently being updated and will soon be making the rum without the help of human hands. Additionally, and possibly most significantly, the rum was matured using a proprietary reactor designed and built by Lost Spirits. The aging reactor has been shown to produce the same chemical signature in rum as decades of age in a barrel. At present the system has been tested in the real world on Santeria Rum and the forthcoming Rattleback Rye whiskey.

Santeria Rum can be found at Charleston retail shop Burris Liquor Store and can also be found at K & L Wines which ships to many states through their online shop at:

About Rational Spirits:
Rational Spirits is a channel partner that is set up to produce Lost Spirits Laboratory designed products at scale. The company boasts a 12,000 square foot production space. Rational Spirits is the only distillery that currently has access to the Lost Spirits technology and it will remain that way for some time.

About Lost Spirits:
Lost Spirits is known for engineering and designing some of the world’s most fascinating spirits using a hybrid of tradition and cutting edge technology. The company seeks to advance the understanding of spirit making as well as pave the way with first hand research that helps build a more extensive knowledge base that can be shared within the industry. Lost Spirits is most well known for being the first company to successfully recreate the chemical signature of aged rum in a laboratory setting. In 2015 the company published the data supporting the claim along with several papers outlining primary research into the chemical composition and changes taking place in aged spirits. The company is constantly working to patent more and more of the body of work.

What happened to my son?

by Michelle

I had never heard of SPD until this evening when I was searching online for the 1,000th time trying to find something which might give me some answers.

My son is 10 years old. Everything was fine for the first 5 years. He was happy, confident and loving. Then we moved to another and he changed overnight. I soon recognized that he HATED change - of any kind. He developed an aversion to any loud noises - planes overhead, loud music, loud voices, car engines, crying and saying the noise hurt his ears. I took him to get his hearing checked - several times, only to be told that it was fine.

Over the last 5 years he has become an incredibly fussy eater. He will not try anything new. He eats fruit, chips (only oven ones), Weetabix, chicken nuggets (only from McDonalds), baked beans, waffles (only frozen) crisps (has to be one particular brand), and chocolate (but has to be Cadbury). If i try to get him to eat a new food - even chocolate or a dessert- he will cry and throw a tantrum. He puts the food on the end of his tongue and gags and is sick.

Every day is a battle to get him into clothes - everything is itchy and uncomfortable and there are only a few things he will wear without a huge stressful argument - they have to be soft (e.g. jogging bottoms). He will not wear a jumper, ever, and spends the winter in t-shirts.

He has no problem academically, if anything, he surpasses his peers in most subjects, especially math where he is in an ability class two years above his age group. He is very active but refuses point blank to join any clubs whatsoever like swimming, football or Judo which are all things he likes. He prefers it if it is just us hanging around the house. Everytime I say we are going out, no matter if it's to go shopping or go to the park he doesn't want to do it.

He detests brushing his teeth and having his hair cut, although he really enjoys it when I give him a back massage. Howeve,r he hates anyone kissing him and generally touching him and will only hug for a brief second, occasionally. He is aggressive verbally and sometimes physically, especially toward his older sister who I have absolutely no problems with. He is angry, rude, and disrespectful and I think very unhappy for a 10 year old, and I cannot seem to do anything to change it.

He is constantly saying he is bored and wanders around the house aimlessly a lot of the time. He often wakes at night screaming and crying saying he can hear loud noises in his ears which terrifies him. He doesn't like it if anyone comes over for the evening/day like my friends, our family, or his sister's friends (but ok with his own friends of which he has quite a few). Any change to the daily routine sees him start being naughty, making stupid noises, running around the house shouting.

I have absolutely no idea where to start or what to do, and being in the UK I don't know what, if any, help is available. Your first instinct is to blame yourself and you look at what you may have done or said to get to this point with your own child. I just feel like such a failure as a mother. The children's father and I separated 4 years ago and I know it affected him deeply. However, there were problems evident before the separation. It was an amicable separation and we are still on friendly terms. The kids have never been witness to any mud slinging between us, but I know how hard it was for him at the time and he wouldn't talk about i, and is still reluctant to do so, though he has a good relationship with his father. I am at my wits end as I know he so unhappy.

The SPD Help Line Answers...

Hi Michelle!

Surely sounds to me like you may have an SPD kiddo. I think your 1,000th visit to the internet may just pay off for getting him the help he needs. Thank goodness you kept pursuing an answer. I am sorry it was so difficult to find one! Specifically, it appears to me that he may be dealing with sensory modulation issues- over responsivity to sensory stimulit, or what is also called sensory defensiveness. I would definitely advise you get him an evaluation for SPD to be sure. So... what I suggest you do is follow my Step By Step Guide to find the help you need, for him AND for you.

That said, know that the move and separation definitely could have been the "trigger" that sent his system out of control and into overload. But, know that eventually there probably would have been some kind of trigger that may have brought this out, so don't blame yourself... PLEASE! Starting or changing schools at age 5 (which is the age you said things changed for him) could have also set off his nervous system, since he may have already had underlying sensory issues- as you seemed to indicate). Any physical, maturational, environmental, or emotional stressors can defintely make SPD "come out" or become worse; to the point, as in your son's case, where every day life becomes a battle just to get through!

Some of the reasons this move (and school?) may have affected him so severely is because of the changes not only in routine, but in predictability as well. You see, our SPD kids NEED structured and routine in which they can predict and not have to consantly be on alert and hyperarousal for any differences in sensory stimuli. They get used to things... sights, smells, sounds, various sensations, etc. and become adjusted and quite comfortable. ANYTHING that changes from that predictability can set them off, big time! Over time, and with a good, intense therapy program to address his SPD, things will indeed get better! He needs a predictable sensory environment again and he needs a nervous system that can better adjust and handle all types of sensory stimuli. Sensory integrative Occupational Therapy will be the key!

A few books I HIGHLY recommend you get your hands on that will help you better understand what may be going on with him (while you wait for the evaluation) are...

The Out Of Sync Child, revised edition

The Mislabeled Child

Raising A Sensory Smart Child

Too Loud, Too Bright, Too Fast, Too Tight

Just Take A Bite

Now, unfortunately, the usual database I use to find SIPT certified OT's, only lists 2 (yikes!) SIPT certified OT's in England. Oh my! That doesn't mean there aren't more, it is just that I don't have the resources for your country. Therefore, I would contact those two if either are near you (you can find them by clicking here, or contact Kathryn Smith at The Sensory Project (www.sensoryproject.com) (she is our SPD Parent SHARE representative for the UK). Hopefully she may know someone, or be better able to direct you. Another idea is to contact any of your local children's hospitals, therapy clinics, or the special education department to find out if they can direct you to someone.

Or, you may find someone if you contact any Occupational Therapy colleges in your area. Here is a list of Occupational Therapy Schools (and direct contacts) in the UK. I don't know if this will help; if any of them are near you...

Lastly, you can try...

I do hope this information is helpful. Wish I could help more. Let us know if you have success and/or if you need further help.

Anyone in England? Does anyone reading this have any OT contacts there?? Please let this mom know if you do! Thanks in advance.

Take good care.

Seven Days needs your financial support!

Free Will Astrology

Here's the weekly astrological forecast for May 26 - June 2, 2010. What's your sign, baby? They're all here...

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Mozart once challenged his friend Haydn to play a harpsichord piece he’d written. Haydn tried, but stopped partway through when the musical score called for him to play a note in the middle of the keyboard even though his right hand was fully occupied at the high end and his left hand at the low end. “Nobody can play this,” protested Haydn. “I can,” said Mozart, who proceeded to perform the piece flawlessly, dipping down to play the problematic note with his nose. In the coming week, Aries, be inspired by Mozart as you not only cover the extremes but also take care of the center.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If you’ve ever contemplated taking a trip to Bora Bora or Pago Pago, now might be a good time to actually go. That’s because you’re in a “seeing double” phase — a time when magic will come through repetition, and via duplication, and while you’re in the throes of imitation. To take maximum advantage of the dualistic cosmic rhythms, don’t seek just one of anything. Don’t do anything just once. Two is where the power lies. Pairing brings potency.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): My favorite news source, The Onion, recently reported on a “freethinking cat” that excretes its wastes “outside the box.” As you enjoy your own phase of liberated thinking and uninhibited action, Gemini, I hope that you’re putting the emphasis on generating beauty and blessings “outside the box.” You will, of course, also have to make some messes as you tamper with the way things have always been done, but even they could turn out to be productive in the long run.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Are you slipping into one of those moods in which you feel like a fraud? Are you starting to worry that maybe you’re not who you say you are? If so, I want to remind you of what happened the last time these feelings got stirred up: You became super motivated to prove that you are indeed who you say you are. And that had a most wonderful effect, didn’t it? It led you to locate and call on resources you hadn’t known you could have access to; it spurred you to purge some self-deception from your system; and it roused you to intensify your commitment to rigorous authenticity. How about an encore?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I’m a compassion freak. Empathy is a fetish of mine. My predilection is to comfort the afflicted, champion the underdog and fight for the rights of people who have been given less than I. And yet there’s also a part of me that’s a pagan libertarian anarchist. I subscribe to the idea that pretty much any kind of behavior is fine and good as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone. Now that you Leos are in the “anything goes” phase of your astrological cycle, this full-permission part of me is rising to the forefront, eager to encourage you to go for broke, take it to the limit, and get away with everything you can get away with — on one condition, which is that it doesn’t harm anyone, including you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Snake charmers are still a fixture in many Indian cities. Moving rhythmically and playing a flutelike instrument, they influence erect cobras to bob and sway as if dancing. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you now have the power to do the metaphorical equivalent of that magic trick. This is one of those rare times when you possess the mojo to direct and even control strong forces that may usually be too wild to tame. You’ve still got to be careful, though. Just because you’ve got the power doesn’t mean that you can scrimp on preparation and discipline.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It’s time to think comprehensively, not defensively ... to see futuristically, not didactically ... to fantasize fantastically, not diplomatically. Your assignment is to stop reacting to every little blip that leaps into your field of vision, and start surveying the long-term cycles of your life from an expansive vista. Be a proactive visionary, Libra. Be a high-minded explorer. Weave all the disparate threads into a tapestry that reveals the big picture. The next phase of your liberation requires you to slough off petty concerns and trivial details.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Never” has never been a more irrelevant word for you. Events that may have always seemed quite improbable are now well within the range of possibility. Exotic people who up until recently may as well have been fictional characters are showing up as real live actors in your actual life story. Plotlines whose emergence you could not have predicted are snaking their way into your drama. So be alert for a freaking miracle concealed in a flimsy disguise. And don’t be surprised if a vision of funky paradise shows up in full regalia. The future’s not just knocking at your door, it’s pounding.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian writer Samuel Clemens was best known under his pen name, Mark Twain. But he tried many others, including Thomas Jefferson Snodgrass, W. Epaminondas Adrastus Blab, Trismegistus, and Sergeant Fathom. Since you’re in a phase when experiments with your persona would be productive, I suggest you dream up a few aliases of your own. I hope that at least one of them will be as wacky as “Blab” or “Snodgrass.” Having a sense of humor about yourself will be helpful. It will ensure that your explorations at the frontiers of your identity will be fertile, fun and never fear based.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’re not living in Iraq or Sudan or the Congo, and you don’t have to walk five miles a day with a jug on your head to fetch the water you need, and you’re not so bereft of food that you have to resort to eating worms and tree bark. So how bad could your problems be? The single best thing you can do to start fixing your life’s small glitches is to feel waves of gratitude for how many resources you have and how lucky you are. The second best thing would be to aggressively take your worried attention off yourself and turn your mind toward people who could really benefit from your help. As you carry out those two assignments, your dilemmas will begin to solve themselves as if by magic.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): There’s a bothersome phenomenon that mucks up reincarnation research: Far too many people profess to have been celebrities and geniuses in their previous lives. A related and equally irksome issue is the problem of multiple claims. For example, I know three different people who have assured me they were Napoleon their last time around. The fact is, almost no one who’s reading this horoscope has ever been famous in any past incarnation. However, it is worthy to note that a disproportionately high percentage of you Aquarians were formerly people with great imaginations. And it so happens that in the coming weeks you will be at the peak of your ability to tap into the creativity you had back then.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): When I sent out my email newsletter last week, I got the usual number of automatic replies from people who were on vacation or out of the office. But one from Lisa P. caught my attention. “Can’t reply to your email right now,” it read. “I will be meditating until June 1.” My first reaction was jealousy. “I want to have the leisure time and willpower to meditate for 14 days nonstop!” I thought to myself. I pictured myself free of all business-as-usual, even meditating while I was asleep. My second reaction was that I should tell you Pisceans about what Lisa P. was up to. The coming days would, after all, be an excellent time for you to retreat from the usual flood of chaos and seek peaceful sanctuary in a conversation with eternity. If you can’t manage a whole week, try to give yourself at least 48 hours of profound and utter slack.
