I have a lot to look forward-to.  Ill see what I can do, over the next number of decades of service life.  I truly hope to truly pay it forward.  [6:52 pm]

 

There has been some kindness extended towards me following a devastating m-ring of my previous 6:52 pm post.  I have been given a sense that such is impossible to recover-from, as the original sense has been over-written repeatedly.  It looks like such unkindness has been continuing since then [7:05 pm].

 

I truly hope the noblest sense of the 6:52 pm post was stored appropriately.  I get the sense that I have been critically wounded by some party.  I can only try my best.  Hope, love, and hard work.  [7:11 pm]

 

Honor.  What parties show honor, and when? [7:22 pm]

 

What are truly good people to do?  [7:29 pm]

 

I get the sense that first sense mentioned in the 7:11 pm post has been destroyed.  [7:36 pm]

 

What am I supposed to do about the m-ring of the 6:52 pm post?  [7:38 pm]

 

I am truly thankful that a number of horrible things are kept sub-threshold so that I cannot perceive them and/or fully receive their impact.  [7:45 pm]

Well, the posts within the previous tildes could be taken a certain medical way.  What does this acknowledgment mean?  [7:48 pm]

So, above the two sets of triple tildes, theres a lot of grist for the mill.  I wish I could have been more respectful.  [10:49 am]

 

I wish I had more time to post and still satisfy my work and school duties.  Very long story.  I have a number of things to share.  [10:52 am]

 

Some more tilde text below, between a pair of triple tilde's.  Uploading approximately February 28, 2007 at 1:24 pm.  Hopefully this will do fine.  Hopefully going to the bathroom wouldn't be associated with any computer difficulties.  More on the tilde text below (Hey, it's February 28, 2007 at 1:31 pm ).  I think I'll post that the tilde text is very nutty below.  That means I better review it soon.  Shall I revise it?  (Obviously not a dare.).  (Hey, it's February 28, 2007 at 1:52pm.).  Why would someone spend time on his blog at this point?  I guess this is an opportunity to disclose some obvious errors or open-endedness regarding work duties today.  Ive got a lot of explaining to do.  I spent too much time on this blog.  Hopefully, in net, things will be betterWell, there could be one interpretation of a certain transcript(?) statement of "Pay" or a eye saccade movement to the $ sign above the 4 on a keyboard.  Okay, well, maybe I should seriously consider moving my blog...or I need to figure-out how to use my planner differently.  There's a lot to be done.  Apparently, I need to blog differently.  On a different issue, that will seem quite crass at this point, given that I am not at the workplace-proper right now is that I haven't been paid yet per arrangement for work since the beginning of this year (beginning of January).  There seem to be a number of administrative loopholes.  There seems to have been some unusual tightening of non-course- related and non-work-task- test criteria.  (Hey it's February 28, at 2:22pm.  Why was there a specific typing slip-up just then?)  Tightening of what test criteria?  So, let's say that one would want to test a monkey for aversion/affinity for an unknown "X"; let's say that the monkey has passed muster on a number of satisfactory iterations; if the monkey becomes more of an eyesore, perhaps some unethical testers might feel a need to strobe the monkey with aversive test material whenever the monkey does not perform as advertised by these same testers; let's say that the following situation is taking place:

 

{

                1) The monkey has been established to not be so good at certain things, like being socially awkward in some settings.  The monkey had been established prior to have some precisely defined moodiness/nuttiness. 

                2) If the monkey doesn't respond quickly enough, the monkey is strobed with aversive or irrelevant test material, including material that involves highly inappropriate material regarding other monkeys at nearly the same time as material about the monkeys directly around the test monkey.

                3) This makes the monkey obviously uncomfortable, and the monkey fumbles further in some social settings.

                4) The monkey fumbles further in fear of the strobe. 

                5) For some reason, the testers decide to strobe the monkey while it is doing its assigned task.

                6) The monkey starts talking.  Other testers are called in.

                7) The monkey finds that when it is talks/acts nuttily in certain settings the test environment changes.

                8) The monkey finds out that at one point, if it asks for the strobe to be put beneath the monkey's perceptive threshold, then it largely goes away.  Does the monkey see the image with the strobe flash or strobe flash alone?  The question then becomes who else feels the strobe and how is it recorded.  What would be the point of that?  A case could be made for desensitization; however, it seems like it makes no sense after a certain point.  Perhaps it is linked to the fact that there is more than one tester.  Perhaps there is a sense that the monkey try on a talk for size; see how the talk fits that monkey's character.  But what do the other testers hear and report?

                9) The monkey notices that other monkeys get affected positively and/or negatively depending upon the monkey's nutty reactions to tester strobes or side-tester strobes.

                10) The monkey notices that when the monkey takes certain actions as might be strobed by a tester, life gets easier for other monkeys who are otherwise having unusual logistical difficulty in their lives.

                The monkey

                11) The monkey then notices that the way it talks/acts nuttily becomes linked to a

                12) The monkey then notices that when it notices the strobe flash alone a certain way, the

                13) The monkey sees its own creative productivity options without s

                14) The monkey notices that others may notice sometimes text is shifted differently.  Errors that normally would be caught by a typesetter appear in headlines where they were not there before.  Sometimes that happens on websites that are posted by students staff and faculty.  Sometimes it is the monkey's mistake, he was wrong in that particular instance; the monkey has a history of acknowledging such.

                15) The monkey realizes that by establishing competency in certain ways while costing competency temporarily in other ways, other monkey's lives get less costly.

                16) The monkey realizes that by being obvious

                17) The monkey has been acting nuttily and why?

}

 

Let's say that the above situation has been taking place over the past.

 

 

So, there may have been some representation of my

"Here's something very nutty.  I typed-in the following three lines into my blog from a drafting printout.  I'd prefer to not do things that way again.

 

No true s. i.  No true h. i.

                Pauses.

                Lifetime guarantees.  Implicit guarantee.

 

"Here's something very nutty.  At this point, this paragraph may come-off as a bit rude depending upon the transcript or analysis metrics.  Medical privacy (a different kind, less secure).  National Security privacy (maybe even deeper).  Here's something sad but true.  There's this recent very embarrassing incident regarding a cold bench and urination.  Theres a temperature and time correlate (very loosely associated with a Sitz bath) and a single precedent scenario; one might draw a loose associate.  one before this past winter and one during this winter.  Now why would someone slip in convention and then mend the convention?  Why would someone look up at the ceiling around the time he considers embarrassing events?  What's the timing of that?

 

"Here's something nutty, it's February 28, 2007, 1:06 pm.  Is it odd that something might have seemed like a marker of instability?  What might have been going on right before that, a cough?  What came before the cough?  Might what had been transcribed(?) just prior been linked to not simply a national security concern but linked to a critical embarassment to national security beyond the scope of iterations ( "I truly hope that ... wow, side-effect ... was that timing or what?  Taped delay?  Phase-locked loop?  ... Conventions and transcripts.  What happens if someone's bladder is truly full?  Self-aggrandizement to what scale?  Full tuition scholarship to medical school starting Fall 2000.  Lost scholarship in 1st year, remediated Biochemistry (raw memorization huh = interpretation of this transcript(?) later might be a bit different)1st summer in 2001 (to greater than the Georgetown University , failed 2nd year of medical school, cleared to return one year later, Unfortunately, the most expedient way to be respectful is to be stay ahead of the 'controlled flow loop'.  At this point, does the concept become creepy again in transcript(?)?")

 

"Here's something nutty.  I have some vulnerability near C1 and C2 (Atlas and Axis in my neck).  I don't think Ill be spending time doing head turns/twists from now on.  I have some true dyskinesia/dystonia that I grew out-of over time; even at its worst severity, I could still successfully hop off of the bottom of the shallow lap pool to get air; at other times, I could tread water or at least float; I used to swim laps 45 minutes a day up to 4 times a week.  It would be highly unusual if something happened to me regarding any of those; it probably would be of note. 

 

Medical privacy.  A while back, I had encountered an article "Chronotherapeutics (light and wake therapy) in affective disorders."  I was ableThere are certain sleep treatments available  Due to my experience with Sleep-W.  In the past, I have been hypomanic for >= thirty hours straight without showing any need for sleep, without the aid of any caffeine or any medications prescribed for ADHD.  (4:28pm Interesting that a head twitch occurred right there, approximately where I have placed this text within parentheses.  Interesting timing.)  In such cases, I have been able to recover to proper executive function and maintain moral function and be medically fit for duty.  I have never been involuntarily hospitalized.  I have over precautionarily checked myself into the ER for a ridiculous hand cut (superficial) and also called the ER for overcaution about overdose and also put myself under observation for "dread" and check myself out of observation in less than 7 hours (relatively standard processing with nap time, no restraints, no medications needed to be prescribed).  Why did I place myself under observation for "dread"?  Please see notations above about a test monkey.  Regarding progression: alternate hypotheses

 

Medical privacy.  At this point, this paragraph may come-off as a bit rude.  What's the medical definition of affect?  What might that imply medically?  When does the historic affect show up?  At what hours?  In what settings?  When has it occurred more publicly?  At what time did it start to appear more publicly?  At what time were emotions very apparent?  What was occurring at that time while drafting the blog posts?  What is the baseline?  What were the recovery protocols used successfully?  What was their time course?  Who was present?  What was the "style" of the affect at those times?  I think it might be wise to disclose ...

 

Here's something very nutty: Medical privacy.  National Security privacy

 

Heres something very nutty: At this point this paragraph may come-off as a bit rude.  Medical privacy.  National security privacy.  I need to figure-out this following content in quotation marks for myself "No free ride but what...how far should I turn back the clockfor whom" Personal referential systems.  Pop culture references such as the video game Starcraft, the TV series Lost, Mystery Science Theater 3000 regarding an alien associated with "Exeter",

 

I have some recovery protocols, some are.  I hope that this website does not get vandalized.  It should be truly clear by now that certain things are not a dare. 

 

Muttering under ones breath is problematic.  It should be pretty clear by now that "

 

Okay, it's February 28, 2007 at 1:25pm.  Hopefully there will be no excuse found to observe this next week differently {please refer to posts earlier today... "Why would I type that between pairs of triple tilde's.

 

Okay, it's February 28, 2007 at 3:07pm.  I'm noticing something in terms of non-psychological, not in terms of a sense of dread.  I think it would be worthy of notice if something happened to me medically at this particular point; it might indicate that something embarrassing was being typed to be blogged.}

March 17, 2007

 

Apparently there was a problem with the day of the month listed on the last post; I may want to repair it.  Here is a quick post on dietary patterns:

 

From the website of the Amen Clinic: http://www.amenclinic.org/ac/: Excerpts from "ATKINS DIET, MIGRAINES AND MARS" (February 4, 2004) (emphasis added)

 

"

The wildly popular and controversial Atkins diet was in the news again this week when a group of scientists reported that the low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet could help to control epilepsy in children. Researchers from Johns Hopkins University in Maryland studied six patients, including three patients who were aged 12 or younger. After following the Atkins diet, two children and one young adult were completely free of seizures, and were able to cut down on their use of anti-convulsant medications. The patients stayed on the diet, and free of seizures, for as long as 20 months. The finding that the controversial diet can restrict seizures is not that surprising, given that that many children with epilepsy already control their seizures by following a more restrictive low-carb, high-fat diet. Such 'ketogenic' diets, like Atkins, produce ketones as a byproduct of fat metabolism, and the ketones are thought to inhibit seizures. Is it possible that the vast amounts of sugars in the typical American diet encourage seizures and psychiatric illness? Many people think so, including me.

"

 

Anticonvulsants are frequently used in the treatment for bipolar disorder.  The therapeutic ketogenic diet is frequently associated with very high amounts of dietary lipid (% fats or oils in terms of the entire daily diet).  In the past, I have discussed extensively with at least one clinician (and additionally with other clinicians) about the ketogenic diet, including therapeutic benefit with lower levels of dietary lipid.

 

Upcoming: a brief discussion on dietary sugar and fat.  Further expansion on the ketogenic diet.

 

Also from the website of the Amen Clinic: http://www.amenclinic.org/ac/: Excerpts from Supplements to Enhance the Brain (emphasis added)

 

"

Prefrontal cortex problems (typical ADD like symptoms)

 

People with PFC (prefrontal cortex problems) seem to have lower availability of the neurotransmitter dopamine. I frequently prescribe the amino acid L-tyrosine in doses of 500-1500mg two to three times a day for adults and 100-500mg two to three times a day for children under 10. L-tyrosine is the amino acid building block for dopamine. It is reported to increase the level of phenylethylamine (PEA), a mild stimulant that is found in high concentrations in chocolate. Many of my patients have reported that it is helpful for them. It is softer in its effect, but nonetheless they notice a positive effect. Because of absorption patterns I recommend that they take it on an empty stomach (a half-hour before meals or an hour after meals). I have not seen any side effects with L-tyrosine, except for mild weight loss. If there are cingulate problems, l-tyrosine by itself can increase the intensity of overfocused symptoms. Symptoms of tyrosine deficiency include hypothyroidism, low blood pressure, low body temperature (cold hands and feet), and restless leg syndrome.

Natural Treatments Summary Sheet

 

Through the years, many people have asked me about the best natural treatments for brain disorders. Here is a list of interventions that I have found helpful.

 

Dietary/Lifestyle Issues - These are very important. They can decrease the amount of medication needed.

 

Many people with ADD do better on higher protein, lower "simple" carbohydrate diet

 

Protein is found in meat, eggs, cheese, nuts, and beans

 

Decrease the amounts of simple carbohydrates, such as sugar, corn syrup, honey, candy, white bread, white flour, white rice, potatoes without the skin, white pasta

 

Eat more complex carbohydrates, such as fruits (oranges, tangerines, pears, grapefruit, apples, kiwi, but not grapes, dates or bananas) and vegetables

 

Increase the amounts of Omega 3 Fatty Acids in the diet and through supplements. Omega 3 Fatty Acids are found in cold water white fish, such as tuna and salmon, walnuts, Brazil nuts, olive and canola oil

 

Decrease artificial colors (especially red and yellow) and food additives (nitrites, msg, aspartane, etc.)

 

Eliminate caffeine, nicotine

 

Evening carbohydrates help sleep

 

Intense aerobic exercise for 20-30 minutes 5-7 times a week

 

Diagphragmatic breathing - deep breaths in and out, for anger and anxiety control

 

Proper sleep (7-8 hours)

"

 

Caffeine can be used to help reduce Ritalin dosages.  Positive comments withheld about nicotine; noblest spirit is intended.

 

Glycemic index is a measure of how quickly carbohydrates convert into blood sugar.  When eaten with protein and lipids, simple carbohydrates can be converted into blood sugar much more slowly.  For example, white pasta will convert into blood sugar much more slowly when eaten with protein, oils, and/or fats.

 

*Upcoming: A more formal expansion on the full extent of the blood sugar conversion depending upon the amount/type of protein and/or lipid eaten at the same time. 

 

To follow-up: glycemic index and slight variants on timing.

 

*Upcoming: additional expansion of the above

 

Tyrosine is found in higher levels in particular foods.

 

Upcoming: Dopaminergic diet.  Particular protein choices.  List of tyrosine-rich foods.  Amino-acid absorption patterns and timing; implications of such.  Protein and ketones as brain fuel and surrounding factors.

 

Some text between tilde's:

I wish I could express more (and other) than just heartfelt thanks.  [before 8:38 pm]

 

Noblest spirit is intended in the above.

Upcoming: Fasting and the ketogenic diet.  Description of the classic ketogenic diet used in therapeutic diet.  Level of "ketogenicity" required to produce effects similar to that of the ketogenic diet.  Evolutionary perspective on ketones and mood states and willpower in times of depletion of food resources.

 

Upcoming: The different subtypes of ADHD (including classic ADHD) and diets particularly healthy for each kind.  Brain systems typically involved.

 

Upcoming: Food sensitivities and ADHD symptoms and empirical observations.

 

To follow-up: Classic definition of the ketogenic diet.  Typical lipids involved in the healthier forms of the ketogenic diet. 

 

Upcoming: Heart disease and traditional dietary patterns, including the Mediterranean diet.

 

Perhaps I should really consider revising the above of this day's post and replace with articles directly form research literature.
