Why MASTIC GUM is surprisingly useful for a variety of dental problems.
THREAD:
Historically, the tradition of using natural remedies for oral diseases runs deep.
Traditional practices like the use of plant-based dentifrice sticks have shown high antimicrobial activity, yet the modern age has seen a shift towards the adoption of plastic bristled toothbrushes for dental hygiene.
Influential figures like Herodotus, Dioscorides, and even the legendary Galen have cited the usage of Mastic gum as being beneficial for oral health.

Harvested for over 2500 years, Mastic gum has been utilized for its systemic and oral health properties.
Renowned figures like the Spanish physician Andrés Laguna prescribed it for dental issues, further solidifying its medicinal reputation.

Systemizing profit taking for me, with some nuances highlighted;
1. Entry Day = Day 0, 3 stops at 33% level to final stop (usually LoD). 33% net size at each level.
2. If profit to risk exceeds 2x in day 0-2, i will shave 33% off. all 3 stops level will be maintained, have size adjusted to the net balance qty. I have highlighted several post on managing risk with 3 segregate stops to reduce your 1R loss even 0.6 to 0.8R. 1R loss is not 1R, more often than not it is 1.03 to 1.3R with slippage, spread, borrwing etc depending on liquidity of the securities on average period, and at time of explosive move u saw it is already making.
3. Day 3 = 33% size down (immediate partial profit taking or shaving risk down on trade that did not follow through but still hovering above avg entry as I have tight stops (since I only do execution when price action presents entry to LoD below 60%). All stops are consolidated to breakeven level on 1 full singular size.
4. Day 4 onwards is all mental stop on 10-MA. I do not mess with the trade if it doesn't close below 10-MA.
eg. If close below 10-MA on Day 8, stop remains at breakeven level on Day 9 and I will let market trade for a opening range of 5 minutes and adjust my breakeven stop to the low of the opening range (ORL) and let it the market take it out.
If stop not taken out by EOD of Day 9, during pre-market routine i will adjust back to breakeven, and reset new ORL for Day 10. I repeat this process until it get taken out. The rationale is to hold onto your winning trade as long as possible with minimal sacrifice or unrealize profit. Study my $XLU entry on 9th July. I'm still holding, and even added along the way up today (86 calendar days and running).
5. Some nuances to consider;
i) if I were to take a catalyst gap trade eg. 1/10 (Day 0) $UNFI +100% surprise beat in EPS and intraday hit 10 x ATR% extension to 50-MA. When $UNFI hit 2x profit-risk in full size within 25 mins of the trade, I take 33% size off. It continue to follow through and hit 10 x ATR% extension from 50-MA. It is extremely unlikely for me to even be aware of this because I usually shut off after 3 hours from open and let my stops take care of my open heat risk. I will let Day 1 open and size down further 33% of net size as partial profit taking. When a trade ran up exceeding 4x profit to risk before my Day 4 breakeven, i will definitely consolidate all risk to a singular stop at breakeven. I am taking the risk of losing the remaining unrealized profit but it definitely don't make sense to visit losing range (below entry) by maintaining stop at 33%/66% and LoD stop at this parabolic point.
ii) if i were to hold a swing trade beyond day 4 (all stops already consolidated at breakeven with partial profit taking already taken place), and trade continue to trend much faster than 50-MA to give me a 8-10x ATR% extension from 50-MA, this is a partial profit taking alert for me to sell on strength. eg. size down 33% of net size and readjust breakeven stop quantity accordingly. stop is always at breakeven with mental stop at 10-MA.
iii) if Day 0 entry executed, and hit my first 33% level stop or even slice through to 66% level stop (2 stops trigger) before Day 4, i will always adjust a horizontal price alert to previous day high (the stop day), and if it trigger, i will add size inverse pyramid method (eg. 10,000 shares in, 6,666 shares stopped out and nett 3,334 shares. I will add 50% of 3,334 size (1,667 size) bringing me back to 50% net size instead of 33% net size). By doing so, if trade turn south to LoD stop on the singular day, u will not be hit risk exceeding 1R even with attempt to re-scale back up.
iv) In holding a trade beyond Day 4 (with consolidated stop at breakeven at nett size), if there were to be a sideway price consolidation setup below 4x ATR% from 50-MA, i will inverse pyramid add 50% size of my nett size. @Qullamaggie treat it as a separate new setup but i prefer managing the same ticker as a single trade. By adding smaller size up this way, your avg price to the trade will not be severely disrupted and will bound to be below your 10-MA mental stop. You can continue to trail the trade like it was but with more potential profit trajectory to the trade.
v) gap down open occasion below 10-MA, the routine i take is the same as 4. on ORL.
The way I manage profit sizing and adjust stops in a sequential manner is aimed at reducing monthly drawdown % and achieving a smoother equity curve on a MoM basis.
As your equity grows (especially when it surpasses your absolute dollar risk tolerance relative to your monthly expenses), seeing unrealized profit drop from, say, +$500,000 to +$280,000 in a single session can be hard to handle, even if you're following textbook rules. I believe not many can emotionally withstand holding 8-10 full-sized trades with 80% portfolio utilization, especially when trading with a bankroll that significantly impacts their quality of life and that of their dependents.

example
A new study shows that baking soda outperforms conventional fluoride toothpaste for plaques and gingivitis.
(🧵1/7)
(🧵1/7)
A previous meta analysis of 5 studies showed that brushing with baking soda removes plaques, often by ~85%.
Potentially by:
1. Physical displacement of plaques
2. Reducing viscosity of plaque matrix
3. Improving plaque penetration by the brush
4. Antimicrobial effects

This paper was published last month, comparing:
➥ A baking soda toothpaste with some (0.31%) fluoride
to
➥ A high fluoride (0.73%) toothpaste
People in the study had confirmed plaque + gingivitis.
1 minute of brushing, twice daily.

A guy sat at his laptop ready to permanently delete his 15-year-old Gmail account.
He was getting 400 spam emails a day. Fake Best Buy receipts. Phishing links from "Netflix." Cryptic extortion threats.
He hovered his mouse over "Delete Account" and sighed: "I just want peace."
His coworker, a former email deliverability engineer, looked over his shoulder.
"Before you nuke 15 years of contacts and data, let me show you something. Your email isn't broken. It's weaponized. There are 22 ways you've been leaving the door wide open. Google won't tell you this because the data collection feeds their entire ad engine. Give me 14 minutes."
Here's what she showed him:

Here's what she showed him:
1. The Newsletter Graveyard
The Situation: You signed up for a 15% discount code from a trendy mattress company back in 2019. You bought the bed, ignored the emails, and never clicked unsubscribe. What you didn't read in their privacy policy was the clause allowing them to "share data with trusted third-party partners." Fast forward to today, and that single company has legally sold your email to 47 different data brokers, who then sold it to hundreds of affiliate marketers.
The Mechanics: Every dormant newsletter in your inbox is a live wire. As long as you are on their list, your data is being refreshed in their CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software, marking your email as an active, deliverable address.
The Fix: You need to aggressively audit the graveyard. In your Gmail search bar, type "unsubscribe". You will likely find over 200 active subscriptions you forgot existed. Do not just delete the emails, open them and kill the subscriptions at the source. Each one you sever closes a pipeline that is actively feeding your digital identity to data aggregators.

2. The Malicious "Unsubscribe" Trap
The Situation: You check your phone and see a poorly formatted email warning you about "Your McAfee Anti-Virus Renewal" or a pitch for "Miracle Keto Gummies." Frustrated, you scroll to the very bottom and click the tiny Unsubscribe link, hoping to finally make it stop. You just made a fatal, irreversible error.
The Mechanics: True spammers and phishing syndicates don't actually honor opt-out requests. Instead, that "unsubscribe" link is a trap wired with a unique tracking token. The moment you click it, a ping is sent back to their server with a clear message: "A real, breathing human lives at this address, and they actively read their spam." Your email address just got upgraded to a "Premium Verified" list, and its value on the dark web just tripled.
The Fix: Never, ever hit unsubscribe on an email you didn't explicitly and intentionally sign up for. Instead, highlight the email and click the Report Spam button (the stop sign icon with an exclamation mark). This action trains Google's machine-learning algorithm to recognize the sender's IP address and domain, eventually penalizing them and protecting millions of other users.

Two days after my son’s wedding, the restaurant manager called and said, “We checked the security footage again. You need to see this yourself.” Then he told me to come alone and not to say a word to my wife....
That was how I knew something was wrong.
Tony Russo had managed the Gilded Oak for years. He had handled arrogant executives, spoiled brides, furious officials, and rich men who thought money made them untouchable. Tony did not scare easily. So when his voice trembled, I listened.
“Mr. Barnes,” he said quietly, “please don’t put this on speaker. You need to come here alone. And whatever you do, don’t tell your wife.”
I was sitting at my kitchen table, staring at cold coffee, while my wife, Beatrice, arranged white lilies at the sink. She looked peaceful, devoted, exactly like the woman everyone believed she was.
“I’ll be there in twenty minutes,” I said.
Beatrice turned. “Who was that?”
“Pharmacy,” I lied. “Something about my blood pressure prescription.”
Her eyes narrowed slightly. Yesterday, I would not have noticed. That morning, it looked like calculation.
At the restaurant, Tony led me to the basement security room and played the footage from the VIP lounge after the wedding.
The screen showed Beatrice walking in, strong and steady, not with the fragile limp she sometimes used at church. Then Megan, my new daughter-in-law, entered her wedding dress.
Beatrice poured champagne.
“To the stupidest man in Atlanta,” Megan said.
Beatrice laughed.
“To Elijah,” she replied. “The goose that lays the golden eggs.”

At the restaurant, Tony led me to the basement security room and played the footage from the VIP lounge after the wedding.
The screen showed Beatrice walking in, strong and steady, not with the fragile limp she sometimes used at church. Then Megan, my new daughter-in-law, entered her wedding dress.
Beatrice poured champagne.
“To the stupidest man in Atlanta,” Megan said.
Beatrice laughed.
“To Elijah,” she replied. “The goose that lays the golden eggs.”
I gripped the chair.
Then they talked about selling the lakehouse I had gifted my son and using the money for Megan’s debts and a condo in Miami. They talked about my family trust, the one that would unlock millions when a biological grandchild was born.
Then Megan touched her stomach and laughed.
“Terrence thinks the baby is his. He doesn’t even know how to do the math.”
Beatrice warned her not to let me demand a DNA test.
My chest tightened
Then Megan asked when I would "retire permanently."
Beatrice took a sip of champagne.
"Soon," she said. "I switched his heart medication three weeks ago. I've been crushing digoxin into his morning smoothies. One day, he'll fall asleep and not wake up. Then we own everything."

Dass das TV-Bild bei Fußballspielen aus den USA (wie aktuell oder damals bei der WM 94) völlig anders aussieht als bei uns, ist keine Einbildung. Es ist das Ergebnis aus alter Technik, US-Sehgewohnheiten und Stadionarchitektur. Ein kleiner Thread dazu: 👇
1/3 Das Erbe von PAL vs. NTSC: In Europa senden wir mit 50 Hz (50 Bildern/Sek), in den USA mit 60 Hz. Wird das US-Signal für uns live konvertiert, müssen Frames weggerechnet werden. Das sorgt für eine andere Bewegungsunschärfe, die das Auge sofort als "fremd" wahrnimmt. 📺
2/3 Color Grading: US-Broadcaster lieben maximalen Kontrast und extreme Sättigung (früherer Tech-Scherz für NTSC: "Never The Same Color"). Während Europa auf natürliche Farben setzt, knallt in den USA der Rasen oft neongrün und die Trikots leuchten künstlich grell. 🎨

कौन है सात महान सप्तर्षि....see thread
ऋग्वेद में लगभग एक हजार सूक्त हैं, याने लगभग दस हजार मन्त्र हैं। चारों वेदों में करीब बीस हजार से ज्यादा मंत्र हैं और इन मन्त्रों के रचयिता कवियों को हम ऋषि कहते हैं। बाकी तीन वेदों के मन्त्रों की तरह ऋग्वेद के मन्त्रों की रचना में भी अनेकानेक ऋषियों का योगदान रहा है। पर इनमें भी सात ऋषि ऐसे हैं जिनके कुलों में मन्त्र रचयिता ऋषियों की एक लम्बी परम्परा रही। ये कुल परंपरा ऋग्वेद के सूक्त दस मंडलों में संग्रहित हैं और इनमें दो से सात यानी छह मंडल ऐसे हैं जिन्हें हम परम्परा से वंशमंडल कहते हैं क्योंकि इनमें छह ऋषिकुलों के ऋषियों के मन्त्र इकट्ठा कर दिए गए हैं।
आकाश में सात तारों का एक मंडल नजर आता है उन्हें सप्तर्षियों का मंडल कहा जाता है। उक्त मंडल के तारों के नाम भारत के महान सात संतों के नाम पर ही रखे गए हैं। वेदों में उक्त मंडल की स्थिति, गति, दूरी और विस्तार की विस्तृत चर्चा मिलती है। प्रत्येक मनवंतर में अगल अगल सप्तऋषि हुए हैं। यहां प्रस्तुत है वैवस्वत मनु के काल के सप्तऋषियों का परिचय।

Overname van SFR: de vier operators geven zichzelf tot zondag om een akkoord te "finaliseren"

De opdeling van telecomgigant SFR id hét gesprek van de dag in Frankrijk. 🇫🇷
Het gaat hier om veel meer dan een miljardendeal tussen telecombedrijven. De val en opsplitsing van SFR trekt enorme aandacht omdat het de vitale infrastructuur raakt én een pijnlijke spiegel is voor de complete Franse economie.
De Franse telecommarkt krimpt definitief van vier naar drie grote spelers (Orange, Bouygues, Free).
Consumenten vrezen dat het verdwijnen van de felle concurrentie leidt tot fors hogere abonnementsprijzen.
Vanwege de enorme politieke gevoeligheid moesten de kopers garanderen dat de werkgelegenheid tot begin 2029 beschermd blijft.
Het omvallen van een bedrijf dat miljoenen Fransen voorziet van 5G en glasvezel mocht simpelweg niet gebeuren.
De parallel met de Franse economie
Wat er bij SFR op microniveau gebeurt, weerspiegelt exact de macro-economische crisis waar de Franse staat nu in zit. Beide kampen met de bittere nasleep van de "goedkoop geld"-jaren.
Oprichter Patrick Drahi bouwde SFR op met gigantische, goedkope leningen. Nu de rente hoog is, verstikken de rentelasten het bedrijf. De Franse staat deed exact hetzelfde en zucht nu onder een recordstaatsschuld van ruim €3.460 miljard.
SFR overleeft alleen door zichzelf drastisch op te knippen en te verkopen om schulden af te lossen. De Franse regering kampt met dezelfde verlamming en moet via noodwetten miljarden wegsnijden om een financieel infarct te voorkomen.
Waar de rentelast bij SFR de bedrijfsvoering opeet, is de rente op de staatsschuld inmiddels de allergrootste kostenpost op de Franse begroting geworden—groter dan het budget voor onderwijs of defensie.
De les van SFR? Of je nu een telecomimperium bent of een EU-lidstaat: bouwen op een fundament van oneindige schulden werkt perfect, totdat de rente stijgt en de realiteit je inhaalt.

De omstreden manier waarop de Franse regering bezuinigingen doorvoert zonder goedkeuring van het parlement.
Omdat de Franse politiek diep verdeeld is, gebruikt de premier een grondwetsartikel om miljardenkortingen op vitale overheidsvoorzieningen simpelweg op te leggen.
Dit mechanisme werkt in de praktijk via de volgende stappen:
De noodwet: Artikel 49.3 van de grondwet
In Frankrijk heeft de premier een bijzonder constitutioneel instrument: Artikel 49.3. Hiermee kan de regering een wet (zoals de nationale begroting) aannemen zonder dat het parlement erover stemt.
Het parlement kan dit alleen stoppen door de regering via een motie van wantrouwen naar huis te sturen. Omdat de oppositiepartijen onderling te verdeeld zijn om samen één vuist te maken, overleeft de regering deze crisis telkens en treedt de begroting dwingend in werking.
De opeenvolgende begrotingen (waaronder de zeer moeizame miljardensaneringen voor 2025 en 2026) verplichten Frankrijk om tientallen miljarden euro's te besparen om het gapende begrotingstekort te dichten.
Dit raakt de Franse burgers direct in hun portemonnee via harde bezuinigingen:
•Onderwijs: Het schrappen van duizenden banen in de publieke sector, waaronder specifiek het onderwijzend personeel.
•Pensioenen: Het uitstellen of bevriezen van de inflatiecorrectie voor pensioenen, waardoor Franse gepensioneerden feitelijk koopkracht inleveren.
•Zorg en Welzijn: Gerichte bezuinigingen op de sociale zekerheid, de gezondheidszorg en subsidies voor arbeidsmarktprojecten.
•Subsidies: Drastische kortingen op klimaat- en groensubsidies (zoals isolatiehulp en subsidies voor elektrische auto's) en internationale noodhulp.
Waar een commercieel bedrijf als SFR gezonde bedrijfsonderdelen moet afstoten om de rentelasten te kunnen betalen, gebruikt de Franse staat dus Artikel 49.3 om miljarden weg te snijden bij de eigen bevolking.
Dit gebeurt om te voorkomen dat internationale kredietbeoordelaars (zoals Fitch of Moody's) het land verder afwaarderen, wat de rente op de staatsschuld nog verder zou opstuwen.
