What We Have Here Is A Failure To Communicate

The results of this past election proved once again that the Democrats had a golden opportunity to capitalize on the failings of the Trump Presidency but, fell short of a nation wide mandate. A mandate to seize the gauntlet of the progressive movement that Senator Sanders through down a little over four years ago. The opportunities were there from the very beginning even before this pandemic struck. In their failing to educate the public of the consequences of continued Congressional gridlock, conservatism, and what National Economic Reform’s Ten Articles of Confederation would do led to the results that are playing out today.. More Congressional gridlock, more conservatism and more suffering of millions of Americans are the direct consequences of the Democrats failure to communicate and educate the public. Educate the public that a progressive agenda is necessary to pull the United States out of this Pandemic, and restore this nations health and vitality.

It was the DNC’s intent in this election to only focus on the Trump Administration. They failed to grasp the urgency of the times. They also failed to communicate with the public about the dire conditions millions have been and still are facing even before the Pandemic. The billions of dollars funneled into campaign coffers should have been used to educate the voting public that creating a unified coalition would bring sweeping reforms that are so desperately needed. The reality of what transpired in a year and a half of political campaigning those billions of dollars only created more animosity and division polarizing one extreme over another.

One can remember back in 1992 Ross Perot used his own funds to go on national TV to educate the public on the dire ramifications of not addressing our national debt. That same approach should have been used during this election cycle. By using the medium of television to communicate and educate the public is the most effective way in communicating and educating the public. Had the Biden campaign and the DNC used their resources in this way the results we ae seeing today would have not created the potential for more gridlock in our government. The opportunity was there to educate the public of safety protocols during the siege of this pandemic and how National Economic Reform’s Ten Articles of Confederation provides the necessary progressive reforms that will propel the United States out of the abyss of debt and restore our economy. Restoring our economy so that every American will have the means and the availability of financial and economic security.

The failure of the Democratic party since 2016 has been recruiting a Presidential Candidate who many felt was questionable and more conservative signals that the results of today has not met with the desired results the Democratic party wanted. Then again? By not fully communicating and not educating the public on the merits of a unified progressive platform has left the United States transfixed in our greatest divides since the Civil War. This writers support of Senator Bernie Sanders is well documented. Since 2015 he has laid the groundwork for progressive reforms. He also has the foundations on which these reforms can deliver the goods as they say. But, what did the DNC do, they purposely went out of their way to engineer a candidate who was more in tune with the status-quo of the DNC. They failed to communicate to the public in educating all of us on the ways our lives would be better served with a progressive agenda that was the benchmark of Senators Sanders Presidential campaign and his Our Revolution movement. And this is way there is still really no progress in creating a less toxic environment in Washington and around the country.

An Anti-Aging Skin Care Guide – 3 Action Ideas to Restore Your Skin

If you’re like me you want an anti aging skin care guide that is both simple and easy to follow. Right?A good guide to anti aging skin care treatment will not be complex or impractical. How many times have you enthusiastically started a health program, such as a diet, only to find a few weeks later that the guide is just too much work, too involved, and that you are slowly giving up and slipping back into the old habits? Those guides were not helpful in the long term and you need to find an anti aging skin care guide that works better than that.Here’s three simple yet effective guidelines for anti aging skin care that will get your skin looking younger. Together they make an easy-to-follow anti aging skin care guide that will work wonders for your skin.First, drink lots of water.I know this sounds a little unrelated to skin care, but getting a good amount of drinking water through the day is a good anti aging skin care treatment.This is because our body is 70 percent water and skin is the biggest organ in it. By drinking, say, seven or eight glasses of good, pure water each day your skin will maintain its natural hydration level and help your looks. Don’t drink too much: eight glasses is normally about right. And don’t drink the rubbish from your tap: drink good water. This simple guideline will definitely lift your anti aging skin care efforts.Next, be moderate as you sun tan.We like to have a tan. people who look at us expect it and a certain amount of sun tan is healthy. Enjoy it. Sunshine helps your body produce that very essential Vitamin D. But you can over-cook your skin in strong direct sun. Enjoy it too much over a long period of time and you will cause a drop in the levels of hyaluronan your skin has. This substance has a key role in repairing skin tissue and is being increasingly studied because of that. Let me simply say, we attack hyaluronan to our own peril.So get into the habit of wearing a hat when the sun is fierce. I’ve recently put a peak on my cycle helmet to shade my eyes and forehead when I ride, and you’ll be able to think of things like which will help keep the sun off you when you’re out in it. This is the easiest part of my anti aging skin care guide.Sunscreen lotion is not the answer. For one thing, some brands include chemicals which damage your skin and affect your health long-term. But also, we can frequently avoid the sun’s rays without using artificial screens just by modifying where we go, when, and how we dress.Finally, eat well.Again, this is probably not what you expected in an anti aging skin care guide, but get a good intake of the dark, leafy vegetables like spinach. Early aging in the skin is often the work of free radicals. These molecules move around our body, damaging cells and have a particularly good time in our skin. The antioxidant-rich leafy green vegetables neutralize the free radicals before they harm your cells and your skin. So deliberately plan to eat these vegetables regularly.So there you have it. Some simple guides that will help your anti again skin care treatment. Follow them regularly. Make them a pattern of your life and health, and they’ll form a sound foundation so your skin remains smooth and looks younger.You can also take up some special treatments that will enhance this foundation of natural skin care. One of the best ways is to use high quality anti aging skin care treatment cream. When you find a truly high quality cream it should do three things for you.First, it will get in step with the natural processes in your skin to close up the fine lines and wrinkles that spoil the look of older skin. Good quality skin care creams have ingredients that stimulate these processes, and some of them will help even out blotches and color differences across your face and arms.Second, it will help keep your skin soft to touch and smooth and even when pressed, by ensuring it is hydrated to a good level. Dry skin cracks and is rough to the feel. A good cream makes sure yours is not like this.And lastly, it will boost your skin’s natural youthfulness by gently boosting up the levels of collagen and elastin that are important for skin to appear young. These are the two things that do most of the work in keeping us looking young as age breaks them down in our skin. Special substances like Phytessence Wakame and Nanobelle CoenzymeQ10 in a cream can help the body boost its collagen and elasin levels.More could be written about this, and I will do that in the months ahead. But now, believe me, once you start to use this anti aging skin care guide and pick anti aging skin care treatment creams thoughtfully I think you’ll find your skin will retrieve some of it youth and quality.

How to Make Your Garden the Envy of Town

There is a wise saying that goes “The grass is always greener on the other side”. How true is this saying? We often fight feelings of jealously when we see at our neighbor’s garden looking prettier than ours. In order to keep up appearances, you have bought and used garden fertilizers, manures, watered your garden daily but your garden still looks the same. If this is your story, do not get discouraged because ‘where there is a will there is always a way’.In this article, I will share with you nine cost-effective tips that will make your garden the envy of town. You garden will attract different species of butterflies, squirrels and rare birds.The first thing is to research on gardening. You don’t need to spend a fortune buying gardening books; you can get a lot of gardening information on the internet. Use the information gathered, to prepare a tentative budget.Secondly, cultivate your garden and uproot all the dead leaves, weeds, dandelions, moss e.t.c. If you are using a weed killer make sure it is not the strong kind because it will end up damaging the tender seedlings that you will plant in your garden.Thirdly, once your garden is properly cultivated, plant seedlings and deposit fertilizer on them. Planting seedlings as opposed to fully grown plants is much more affordable and cost-effective. Ensure the fertilizer you purchase has nitrogen because it’s a weed killer. The fertilizer should be applied at least four times in the year. This effort will make your garden grow without interferences from pests and rodents.Fourthly, water your seedlings daily with a hose pipe. It’s advisable to water the garden early in the morning or late in the evening. Ensure the water sprinkled is at least two inches to prevent the sun from scotching the seedlings.Five, fence your garden with neat picket fences painted with the color of your choice. Fencing your garden will keep away unwanted animals or children running around your freshly cultivated and planted garden.Six, continue with the routine until you see your garden taking shape. Don’t neglect cultivating your garden because weeds, dry leaves, papers will attack your garden.Seven, fit your garden with lawn lighting and place mirrors around your garden to give the illusion of space. Fairy lights placed around your garden fence and lanterns will make your garden look spectacular especially at night.Eight, invest in some outdoor furniture like garden tables, chairs, parasols and barbeque grills for cooking steak and sausages in the middle of a hot afternoon. Place decorative paving slabs in your garden so that your grill and garden furniture don’t rest on your freshly cultivated garden.Lastly, gardening is all about experimentation. You can have the garden of your dreams if you are will and committed to work at it. A garden is like a baby the more you nourish and feed it with the correct essential nutrients the more it will flourish and blossom to everyone’s delight.
