Older Women and Minorities areIntegral to Healing Divided Country 
  

New York, NY, December 3, 2020 — Now that America has voted in Joe Biden, who will be the oldest president ever in the U.S., and Kamala Harris, who will be the first woman—and of color—as vice president, what message is Biden’s team sending by nominating 74-year-old Janet Yellin for U.S. treasury secretary and 68-year-old Linda Thomas-Greenfield as Ambassador to the United Nations? With a clear stand on age and gender, Erica Baird and Karen E. Wagner, two successful lawyers (now retired) and cofounders of Lustre.net, an online community aimed at redefining the stereotypes of retirement for modern career women, share six tips each for Biden and Harris as they further shape their cabinet for the country:  

For President-Elect Biden:
1. Deploy the advantages of your age. You have many decades of political and personal experience that allow you to think big.
2. Listen to our cohort when an issue affects people 65 and over.
3. Listen to our cohort when an issue affects people 65 and under.
4. Apply your problem-solving skills to give the people what they need. Most Americans, whoever they voted for, want the same things: an end to COVID, a good job, an excellent education for their children, a secure home and three meals a day, not necessarily in that order.
5. Use your gentle diplomatic approach to bring us together. Older people remember a “United States,” and our hope is that our country can still be a nation undivided.
6. Call on older women. We shouldn’t be dismissed. We’re an untapped demographic with huge intellectual and buying power that we typically don’t flaunt. We are here to enhance.  
 
For Vice President-Elect Harris:
1. Diversity brings strength. Remember that diversity includes age.
2. Pay heed to those politicians who learned to be effective by listening to their adversaries.
3. Keep employing style to convey how a woman exercises power. 
4. Channel the power of women to bring about a stronger America.
5. Break the stereotype that assertive women are “bitchy.”
6. Encourage Biden to bring younger and older Americans together to serve the country. 

About Lustre.net

Lustre.net is an online forum founded by Erica Baird and Karen Wagner, two New York City retired attorneys. Together, Baird and Wagner are on a mission to redefine retirement for modern career women by confronting outdated concepts, defying stereotypes and raising our collective voices to ensure that retirement for all of us is shaped by women, for women. Baird and Wagner want women to “tap into our experiences and passions, forge new identities and find new purpose—and pass on what we know to the next generation.”

Post-Traumatic Thriving Explores Powerful Ways to Heal After Heartbreak

Los Angeles, CA, December 3, 2020 — Just when everything seems to be going right — our jobs are stable, our children are succeeding, and the stars seem to be aligning in our favor — the floor drops out. Stunned and unable to make the simplest decisions, we shut down completely. In that moment, it’s nearly impossible to imagine things ever being “normal” again. What just happened?

“It is trauma, in all of its forms. It slaps us right in the face, and hard,” says world-renown expert on disasters and trauma Dr. Randall Bell. “When trauma hits, the most critical decision we make is to choose whether to be a victim, aggressor, survivor or thriver.”  

In his new book, Post-Traumatic Thriving: The Art, Science, & Stories of Resilience, Dr. Bell interweaves science and academic research with stories of people who have not just survived, but have used their trauma as their fuel to thrive. Dr. Bell sits down with survivors of the Holocaust; murder-victim’s families; crime victims; suicide survivors; and those who’ve experienced homelessness, disasters, addictions, depression, death, divorce, disabilities, defeats and disease to explore the rare mindset of the post-traumatic thriver. 

Through this unprecedented research, Dr. Bell shares with readers stories of remarkable resilience, including the following:

• A deaf man with a glass eye invented the electric guitar and became a household name, remarkably wealthy and most importantly, happy. 

• A convicted murderer took responsibility for the damage he caused, graduated with honors from college, became a minister and turned around the hearts of the most hardened criminals.

• A girl born with cerebral palsy landed the world’s first starring role on national television and spoke at the White House three times.

• A woman hid in a basement for years and lost her entire family in the Holocaust. She eventually found true love and paints stunning artwork.

• The sister of a murder victim helped millions of women in toxic domestic relationships.

• A woman’s car crash resulted in an addiction to prescription drugs, a divorce, a loss of her children and a cot in a homeless shelter. She has rebuilt it all back and more.

• A man set to go to the Olympics had his hopes dashed by Jimmy Carter and went on to build a worldwide business empire.

Ultimately, Dr. Bell documents the science of happiness, as well as the individual styles and common thread that all post-traumatic thrivers have to emerge with a fulfilling life. When trauma hits, your most significant decision will be to dive, survive or thrive. If you choose to thrive, this book is for you.

As an economist, Dr. Randall Bell has consulted on more disasters on earth than anyone in history and is widely considered the world’s top authority in the field of post-traumatic thriving. His clients include the Federal Government, State Governments, International Tribunals, major corporations and homeowners. Dr. Bell believes that “the problem is not the problem — the problem is how we react to the problem.” 

Often called the “Master of Disaster,” Dr. Bell is squarely focused on authentic recovery and resilience. His research has been profiled on major television shows and featured in numerous magazines and the international media. More information can be found at www.posttraumaticthriving.com.

Make 2021 Your Best Year Yet: Choose Optimism

Philadelphia, PA, Dec. 3, 2020 — Emerging from 2020 is like coming out of a bad relationship. We all need to learn how to love life again. 

From award-winning global diversity and inclusion strategist, international inspirational speaker and unstoppable optimist Kimberly S. Reed comes the encouragement and the tools to launch the new beginning we all need: Optimists Always Win!: Unlocking the Power to Reach Life’s C-Suite. 

“Difficulties and struggles are unavoidable in life, but a person has complete control over one’s personal response to the situation,” Reed says. “This book offers readers a plan for responding with optimism for both the challenges and blessings that come their way.”
 

Optimists Always Win! isn’t another collection of platitudes and motivational mumbo jumbo. Reed’s book digs deep into her most powerful principles and life knockouts (LKOs) and walks readers through an actionable process for building resilience and choosing optimism over anger.
 

Reed uses her own experiences, including her heroic battle with her mother’s terminal illness and sudden loss as well as her own subsequent battle with cancer, to show readers that it’s possible to rise above pessimism and hopelessness when faced with hardship. 

Relying heavily on her faith in God and the optimism that she learned to cultivate, Reed teaches readers 10 “discouragement eliminators,” which helped her succeed not just in her fight against cancer but as she lives each day as her best self. 

Reed’s inspirational messages touch on every aspect of life, to help readers grow in their faith, remove self-placed stumbling blocks and adopt the optimistic attitude needed for reaching the C-suite of life. 

All book royalties are being donated to the American Cancer Society AstraZeneca Hope Lodge in Philadelphia and to a premier Academic Research Institution for Integrated Breast Cancer Fund and Patient Care.

Certified Trainer/Pilates Instructor Ilana Milstein, Mom and CEO of No Xcuses Training on tips for working out at home:

Do not let your inability to go to the gym derail you from working out. Today, living through the pandemic, working out in your own home is the newest, latest and the best trend. No, you do not need to buy any fancy equipment:anyone can get a highly efficient and effective workout within the confines of your own home. Whether you are a cardio queen, a strength training maven, or prefer more restorative exercises like yoga or pilates, there is a lot you can do. Below are a few quick and easy workouts for you to do using just your own body weight.
For the cardio lover:
Do the following circuit 3 - 4 times with a 30 second rest in the middle
1. Running in place 30 seconds
2. 20 jump squats
3. 50 jumping jacks
4. 25 mountain climbers
For the strength and tone buff:
Do the following circuit 3-4 times with 30 second rest between each set
1. 15 pushups
2. 30 second plank
3. 15 lunges on each side with a pause at the bottom
4. 20 squats
For the yogi/pilates guru:
Do the following circuit 3-4 times with minimal to no rest
1. flow from plank to downward dog 3 times
2. on all 4s extend the opposite arm and leg 10x on each side
3. 10 bridges (on back lifting hips up and down taking time to stretch at the top of each
rep)
My personal favorite way of moving without equipment is going for a walk or a jog as you get both the benefits of movement and being outside in nature, which does wonders for your mental health as well. Additionally, if you do miss a class-type environment, there are thousands of fitness instructors who have taken their classes onto zoom. While actual people are not in your living room, one can feel motivated by the people on the screen doing the workout with you. In a nutshell, movement can be done anywhere. We are not limited by the pandemic.

More about Ilana: Ilana builds workout plans that target all body types and ages, and with background as a trainer dealing with injuries, she specializes in providing modifications or addressing pain/body issues.

Many Canadians believe COVID lifestyle changes are affecting their eyes

- Two-thirds of Canadians say they're spending more time looking at screens during the pandemic, which can contribute to vision problems –

TORONTO, Dec. 3, 2020 /CNW/ - COVID-19 has impacted the way we work, learn and socialize, with more Canadians than ever seeking connection and entertainment online. According to a new survey commissioned by Alcon Canada, two-thirds of Canadians requiring vision correction (66 per cent) are spending more time on computer, tablet or phone screens than they did before the pandemic, and nearly one-third (31 per cent) feel their eyesight has gotten worse. 

The study of 1,000 Canadians requiring vision correction, conducted by research firm Leger, showed that 34 per cent of Canadians requiring vision correction say their eyes feel more tired during the pandemic than they did before, which is a possible sign of digital eyestrain, a condition caused by spending too much time in front of screens. A study found the effects of long-term computer use on the eyes suggest that digital eyestrain is a form of evaporative dry eye. As a result, tears evaporate on the surface of the eye and can cause them to feel dry, tired or irritated. Despite this:

• One-third (34 per cent) say they've delayed getting new contact lenses while another third (33 per cent) say they've delayed getting new glasses, which can further contribute toward worsening vision 
• Nearly 40 per cent say they're uncomfortable with the idea of visiting their eye care professional during the pandemic 
• One-quarter (28 per cent) say they're actively experiencing symptoms of dry eye

"While it's tempting to turn to streaming services and e-books for entertainment after long days of working and learning on screens, I'm seeing patients in my clinic who are suffering from sore, tired eyes as a result, which could be a sign of dry eye caused by digital eyestrain," says Dr. Shawn Moore, optometrist at Orillia Optometry. "Conditions like dry eye can also present as blurry vision, so if you're experiencing changes in your eyesight, patients still need to prioritize seeing an optometrist at this time to re-assess their vision care needs. Your eye doctor might recommend using an eye drop with lipids, like SYSTANE® COMPLETE, or switching to a daily disposable contact lens featuring water gradient technology, like DAILIES TOTAL1®."  

In addition to dry eye and worsening vision, the survey showed that Canadians are frustrated with the inconvenience and nuisance of foggy glasses caused by wearing a mask and glasses together while running errands. Three-quarters of Canadians who wear glasses say their glasses fog up when wearing masks; 35 per cent say they adjust their glasses more when wearing them with masks; and more than half of Canadians (51 per cent) requiring vision correction wear contact lenses when going outside.     

Experiencing changes with your vision during COVID-19? The following steps could help:

• Give your eyes a rest. When looking at screens, follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look 20 feet away to fight digital eyestrain. 
• Find the right eye drop. While dry eye is often a chronic condition that can't be cured, the right eye drop can provide comfort and help improve symptoms. Lipids found in a drop like SYSTANE® Complete restore the outer layer of the tear film, which helps prevent the tear evaporation often seen with digital eyestrain. 
• Consider a daily disposable contact lens. If your blurry vision is caused by a changing prescription and not dry eye, consider a daily disposable lens when updating your prescription, which eliminates the need for cleaning and storing your lenses. For those seeking exceptional comfort and additional hydration, DAILIES TOTAL1® features the world's first and only water-gradient lens technology, which creates a cushion of moisture on the eye that is so comfortable, it feels like you're wearing nothing at all. 
• Reassess your set up. Place your screen at an arm's length away from you and adjust screen brightness to your surroundings, eliminating any harsh lighting near your workspace. 
• Visit your optometrist. Recognizing the increase in screen time during the pandemic, now is not the time to neglect your eye health. Regular eye exams are critical to ensuring your vision health, and only an eye care professional can diagnose a condition like dry eye or prescribe the right vision corrective device. Eye care professionals across Canada have put in place a number of COVID-19 safety precautions to help protect you while in their clinics. Many offer virtual appointments where appropriate and can provide direct shipping for products like contact lenses and eye drops. 

For more information, talk to your eye care professional to learn more about DAILIES TOTAL1® or SYSTANE® COMPLETE.  

Study Methodology 
An online survey of 1,000 Canadians who wear corrective eye wear was completed between September 22 and September 27, 2020, using Leger's online panel. For comparative purposes, a probability sample of 1000 respondents would have a margin of error of ±3.1%, 19 times out of 20.

LuminUltra's point-of-need and high-volume testing solutions capable of serving a range of COVID testing needs in under two hours

FREDERICTON, NB, Dec. 3, 2020 /CNW/ - Biotechnology front-runner LuminUltra is pleased to announce that it has received Health Canada authorization to sell and distribute its GeneCount^® COVID-19 RT-qPCR Assay Kit. This authorization allows LuminUltra, the Canadian leader in point-of-need molecular diagnostic testing for over 25 years, to give governments and businesses across the country complete and customizable clinical COVID-19 testing capabilities in addition to its industry-leading environmental surveillance solutions in the fight against the pandemic.

"This new product line gives governments and businesses across Canada the tools they need to deliver a high volume of the most accurate COVID-19 test results possible in under two hours," said LuminUltra Chairman and CEO Pat Whalen. "With this Health Canada authorization we are now able to expand our efforts in the fight against COVID-19 by providing accurate and fast testing solutions for both remote locations and high-capacity mobile labs." 

LuminUltra's GeneCount^® COVID-19 testing solutions comprise multiple, flexible components that together make up a complete laboratory-grade point-of-need solution, including: sample collection kits; isolation reagents; the COVID-19 assay; and a range of qPCR testing devices and software for simple interpretation of COVID-19 test results with industry-leading accuracy and sensitivity.

The gold standard GeneCount platform provides results on 16 to 96 tests in under two hours per run and includes instruments tailored to two specific needs:

• Portable, point-of-need devices built into a carrying case that enable up to 16 tests per run to be performed where they are needed; and
  
• High capacity, automated devices that enable up to 96 tests per run ideal for both mobile and traditional brick-and-mortar laboratories. 

"At this critical point in the pandemic, we have the production capacity and supplies necessary to meet the testing needs for all of Canada," underscores Whalen. "Our made-in-Canada solutions give laboratories, public health authorities and businesses across the country the ability to continue to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic without being beholden to international suppliers that may not see Canada as a priority market."

As an added benefit, these instruments can run multiple sample types and test targets including environmental surveillance testing of surface or wastewater samples for the virus that causes COVID-19, both of which have been proven to help with early detection of potential outbreaks during the current pandemic.  Additionally, the same instruments can be used to target common water- and food-borne pathogens such as legionella, coliforms, algae, listeria, salmonella, and more through adaptable testing kits available from LuminUltra.

Since March of this year, LuminUltra has recognized the important role of testing in the fight against COVID-19 and has focused on increasing capacity to meet the testing needs of all of Canada. Underscoring its reliable supply chain, LuminUltra responded promptly to the Government of Canada's testing needs earlier in the year, and has been a key supplier of the isolation reagents for the national testing program since April, keeping up with the demand of national testing needs by providing 500,000 tests a week.

4 New Ways to Treat Muscle Pain and Tension After Workouts

Exercise is important for the body. It helps with weight management, mobility, and heart health. However, exercise can cause significant pain. This pain can make it difficult to get to the gym the next day. Don’t let this pain prevent you from working out! Fight it instead. Here are 4 new ways to treat muscle pain and tension after workouts.

CBD

CBD is becoming more and more popular these days with studies showing its effectiveness for treating mild to moderate pain. It’s far less dangerous than prescription drugs, and it comes with additional benefits too. You don’t need to go to a doctor to get it, you can’t get high, and it can treat other ailments, such as anxiety and insomnia. Some people suffer slight side effects when CBD is taken in high concentration.

Cold Laser Device

A cold laser device  is a small device you can use at home. As the name indicates, it sends cold lasers to the part of the body that is hurting. The cold is made to help reduce inflammation and also pain. It will also help increase blood flow. Some people swear by this method while others do not experience the same results. There are a number of lasers available depending on what you want. You can get continuous waves or pulsating waves. You can also get various wavelengths.

Massage

A nice massage after a workout can release tension in the muscles and relax the heart as well, preventing heart problems that can happen after an intense workout. You will feel better physically and mentally. Some gyms even offer a spa with massages for this very reason. You’ll feel good enough to work out again once you are done with your massage.

Hydrate

Your muscles need to be hydrated to have full mobility. The hydration will also help once you are done exercising. Be sure to drink plenty of water during and after your workout. You should also remain hydrated throughout your daily life. Drink eight cups of water a day. Drink more when you work out. Not only will your muscles feel better, but you will also have nicer longing skin as a bonus.

Exercise is supposed to be a bit painful, but it’s not to be so painful that you can’t move. When you get sore due to a strenuous workout, you should try one or more of these methods to get back into fighting shape.
