Here are good reasons

Liptember is committed to raising funds and awareness for gender specific mental health issues for women.

Through a fun, fresh and engaging campaign,

Liptember encourages women to openly communicate and familiarize themselves with gender specific mental health issues.

Liptember have formed an important partnership with health beneficiaries the CENTRE FOR WOMEN’S MENTAL HEALTH,

Who provide national research and programs for gender specific mental health issues for women and LIFELINE AUSTRALIA providing all?

Australians with nationwide crisis support

Liptember’s Objective

What is Liptember?

 Liptember is all about having fun with Lipstick, for a serious cause; Women’s Mental Health, specifically any form of anxiety, depression, post natal depression, menopausal changes, dementia and self image.

ALL FUNDS raised during the month of September are donated to Liptember’s mental health beneficiaries, the CENTRE FOR WOMEN’S MENTAL HEALTH and LIFELINE LIPETTES register online and seek sponsorship from family, friends and co-workers for committing to wear the Liptember Lipstick throughout the month of September

 Why Mental Health?

There is little mental health research based on women

More focus needs to be placed on treating men and women separately when it comes to mental health

Suicide is the biggest single cause of death for Australian women aged 18 to 34

One in three Australian women will suffer depression or anxiety during their lifetime

Women are more susceptible to anxiety and depression than men

Post natal depression affects 15% of women within the first year after childbirth

 

Who are we?

A demographically and socially diverse group of women and men committed to raising awareness of women’s health equity.  Our priority is to improve the health of all Australian women who take on a myriad of responsibilities as mothers, grandmothers, sisters, daughters, wives and partners…….. Thus to improve the health of all Australian women will help to improve the health of the whole community.

The Liptember concept and strategy provides a gateway for much needed research on the lifestyle choices and health issues of Australian Women.

FAQ’s

Q1.
Why the focus on women’s mental health? 
 Women and men can respond differently to mental health issues. Currently the majority of mental health research and programs are conducted on male subjects and applied to women. This has lead to many programs and prevention strategies missing the mark.

Q2.
Does women’s mental health requires more attention than means? 
Certainly not! Liptember is all about identifying the differences between men and women when it comes to mental health and treating them accordingly.

Q3.
What are some examples of mental health issues that are gender specific? 
Issues such as Postnatal or Menopausal related depressions are perfect examples of mental health issues that are gender specific to women.

Q6.
How do I sponsor a Liptember participant?
It’s as easy as searching the name of the participant or group into the search field in the top right hand corner of the Liptember homepage and follow the steps to donate.

Q7.
Where is my money going? 
ALL FUNDS raised during the campaign will be donated to the Centre for Women’s Mental Health and Lifeline Australia.

Q8.Is my donation tax deductable? 
Yes all donations are tax deductable. Keep your receipt for tax purposes, which will be emailed to you after payment has been processed. The Liptember Foundation is a registered Australian charity with DGR status.

Mental illnesses affect women and men differently — some disorders are more common in women, and some express themselves with different symptoms. Scientists are only now beginning to tease apart the contributions of various biological and psychosocial factors to mental health and mental illness in both women and men. In addition, researchers are currently studying the special problems of treatment for serious mental illness during pregnancy and the postpartum period.

The mental disorders affecting women include the following:

Anxiety Disorders, including OCD, panic, PTSD, social phobia, and generalized anxiety disorders.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD, ADD)

Bipolar Disorder

Borderline Personality Disorder

Depression

Postpartum depression

Eating Disorders

Schizophrenia

Good Morning? Word Press

 

It is 05:00am Monday morning as I type, I went to bed on Saturday night, I am confused, sore, dizzy, but that is lack of medication. I had some 20 minutes ago when I got through to the Kitchen. My son was leaving for work, having to walk 2 mile in the dark and I couldn’t even give him a lift in the car, I am too sore, so I feel bad just now, all upset with my little self, it will pass

I had a dream, it lasted almost the two days it seemed, or day and a half, the world had been taken over by someone, there was strict laws in place, we were not allowed to do things and people were getting shot all over the place, there was an underground movement I had joined in this stupid dream. It was so real, then I woke up not knowing where I was for while, 10 minutes say, I was all over the place, couldn’t find the toilet, trying not to wake the kids up, and then it all came back, I was dreaming about Syrian, I was  Syrian I think. The dream was real

I also missed another day with everyone, my Mum visited yesterday and I missed her, I feel bad about that also. I feel bad about too much right now. But that is what comes with the territory of living in pain; there is no escape, only acceptance and having to deal with things.

It is taking me so long to type this it is untrue, my hands are shaking, but it will pass, I get this when I have been asleep two days and had no medication, it sucks but it will pass

I hope you are all fine, I hope you all had a good weekend, I just wish I could ask my own family this first, but you are as good as family to me now. Looking at it as the pain goes away a little and I wake up more, I wasn’t in pain for a while there, I was dreaming

Keep it real

More love, less hate

Are you in pain? Do you Drink Soda/Fizzy Juice? Plz Read

 

 

ASPARTAME COULD BE OUR PROBLEM IN DIET SODA/JUICE – CHECK YOUR DRINK FOR THIS ASPARTAME !! I just did, it’s there 

You in pain?

You drink fizzy juice/Soda?

A KILLER IN YOUR FRIDGE

SWEET POISON..A MUST READ !!!

In October of 2001, my sister started getting very sick She had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting around. Walking was a major chore. It took everything she had just to get out of bed; she was in so much pain.

By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not determine what was wrong with her. She was in so much pain, and so sick she just knew she was dying.

She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest daughter’s name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care of.

She also wanted her last hooray, so she planned a trip to Florida (basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd.

On March 19, I called her to ask how her most recent tests went, and she said they didn’t find anything on the test, but they believe she had MS.

I recalled an article a friend of mine e-mailed to me and I asked my sister if she drank diet soda? She told me that she did. As a matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open that moment.

I told her not to open it, and to stop drinking the diet soda! I e-mailed her an article my friend, a lawyer, had sent. My sister called me within 32 hours after our phone conversation and told me she had stopped drinking the diet soda AND she could walk! The muscle spasms went away. She said she didn’t feel 100% but, she sure felt a lot better.

She told me she was going to her doctor with this article and would call me when she got home.

Well, she called me, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to call all of his MS patients to find out if they consumed artificial sweeteners of any kind. In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet soda.. and literally dying a slow and miserable death

When she got to Florida March 22, all she had to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the Aspartame poisoning! She is well on her way to a complete recovery. And she is walking! No wheelchair! This article saved her life.If it says ‘SUGAR FREE’ on the label; DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on ‘ASPARTAME,’ marketed as’Nutra Sweet,’ ‘Equal,’ and ‘Spoonful.’In the keynote address by the EPA, it was announced that in the United States in 2001 there is an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus. It was difficult to determine exactly what toxin was causing this to be rampant. I stood up and said that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject.

I will explain why Aspartame is so dangerous: When the temperature of this sweetener exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME converts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants. The methanol toxicity mimics, among other conditions, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus.

Many people were being diagnosed in error. Although multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, Methanol toxicity is!

Systemic lupus has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially with Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers.The victim usually does not know that the Aspartame is the culprit. He or she continues its use; irritating the lupus to such a degree that it may become a life-threatening condition. We have seen patients with systemic lupus become asymptotic, once taken off diet sodas.

In cases of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, most of the symptoms disappear. We’ve seen many cases where vision loss returned and hearing loss improved markedly.

This also applies to cases of tinnitus and fibromyalgia. During a lecture, I said, ‘If you are using ASPARTAME (Nutra Sweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc) and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting, pains, numbness in your legs,
Cramps,
Vertigo,
Dizziness,
Headaches,
Tinnitus,
Joint pain,
Unexplainable depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss you probably have ASPARTAME poisoning!’ People were jumping up during the lecture saying,’I have some of these symptoms. Is it reversible?’

Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
STOP drinking diet sodas and be alert for Aspartame on food labels! Many products are fortified with it! This is a serious problem. Dr. Espart (one of my speakers) remarked that so many people seem to be symptomatic for MS and during his recent visit to a hospice; a nurse stated that six of her friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence!

Diet soda is NOT a diet product! It is a chemically altered, multiple SODIUM (salt) and ASPARTAME containing product that actually makes you crave carbohydrates.

It is far more likely to make you GAIN weight!

These products also contain formaldehyde, which stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs. Formaldehyde is an absolute toxin and is used primarily to preserve ’tissue specimens.’

Many products we use every day contain this chemical but we SHOULD NOT store it IN our body!

Dr. H. J. Roberts stated in his lectures that once free of the ‘diet products’ and with no significant increase in exercise; his patients lost an average of 19 pounds over a trial period.Aspartame is especially dangerous for diabetics. We found that some physicians, who believed that they had a patient with retinopathy, in fact, had symptoms caused by Aspartame. The Aspartame drives the blood sugar out of control. Thus diabetics may suffer acute memory loss due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are NEUROTOXIC when taken without the other amino acids necessary for a good balance.

Treating diabetes is all about BALANCE.. Especially with diabetics, the Aspartame passes the blood/brain barrier and it then deteriorates the neurons of the brain; causing various levels of brain damage, Seizures, Depression, Manic depression, Panic attacks, Uncontrollable anger and rage.Consumption of Aspartame causes these same symptoms in non-diabetics as well. Documentation and observation also reveal that thousands of children diagnosed with ADD and ADHD have had complete turnarounds in their behavior when these chemicals have been removed from their diet.

So called ‘behavior modification prescription drugs’ (Ritalin and others) are no longer needed.Truth be told, they were never NEEDED in the first place!Most of these children were being ‘poisoned’ on a daily basis with the very foods that were ‘better for them than sugar.’It is also suspected that the Aspartame in thousands of pallets of diet Coke and diet Pepsi consumed by men and women fighting in the Gulf War, may be partially to blame for the well-known Gulf War Syndrome.

Dr. Roberts warns that it can cause birth defects, i.e. mental retardation, if taken at the time of conception and during early pregnancy. Children are especially at risk for neurological disorders and should NEVER be given artificial sweeteners.

There are many different case histories to relate of children suffering grand mal seizures and other neurological disturbances talking about a plague of neurological diseases directly caused by the use of this deadly poison.’

Herein lies the problem: There were Congressional Hearings when Aspartame was included in 100 different products and strong objection was made concerning its use. Since this initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings, and still nothing has been done. The drug and chemical lobbies have very deep pockets.

Sadly, MONSANTO’S patent on Aspartame has EXPIRED! There are now over 5,000 products on the market that contain this deadly chemical and there will be thousands more introduced. Everybody wants a ‘piece of the Aspartame pie.’I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of Aspartame, knows how deadly it is.

And isn’t it ironic that MONSANTO funds, among others, the American Diabetes Association, the American Dietetic Association and the Conference of the American College of Physicians?

This has been recently exposed in the New York Times. These [organizations] cannot criticize any additives or convey their link to MONSANTO because they take money from the food industry and are required to endorse their products.Senator Howard Metzenbaum wrote and presented a bill that would require label warnings on products containing Aspartame, especially regarding pregnant women, children and infants.

The bill would also institute independent studies on the known dangers and the problems existing in the general population regarding seizures, changes in brain chemistry, neurological changes and behavioural symptoms.
The bill was killed.It is known that the powerful drug and chemical lobbies are responsible for this, letting loose the hounds of disease and death on an unsuspecting and uninformed public. Well, you’re informed now!

Please print this out and/or e-mail to your family and friends.
Share, speak to your Dr. Seems this is causing issues, did some research.

 

Do speak to your Dr whatever you do or think. Could it be? I research HARD! And stumbled onto this, so shared a story, Google away folks

The Journey

 

Before I write anything I need to say my feet are on the ground and I know I still have a LONG road ahead of me, I know I will have to walk parts alone, I am happy in the knowledge I will have loved ones, friends and virtual friends on the journey with me

I came from a hellish Childhood, to a terrible teenage time, to becoming a terribly confused young Adult who was a Dad at 18, I was gifted a partner and a family as time moved on, I had it all. Aged 30 my life changed in more ways I can tell, but also came pain, depression, suicidal thoughts, and a lack of wanting to be better, I was popping prescription pills like they were sweeties (Candy in the USA) I was in a bad place, this was after I had this taken from me, I caved in, I gave up http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2013/06/08/the-football-story-i-never-told/ I was as good as gone

Then 8 months ago, after 18 months of writing this: http://www.broowaha.com/articles/17147/glasgow-celtic-start-league-campaign-with-2-1-win or similar, I stopped doing that and started to blog about me, just me, where I was in my mind, the pain, how I couldn’t cope, this was my first few blogs

http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/the-snooze-button-2/

http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2012/07/24/when-the-darkness-comes-2/

http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2012/07/20/other-people-2/

These were my reasons away back for starting to blog about me http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2012/07/11/hello-world-2/

I was doing 3 or 4 blogs a Month till January 2013 as I blogged here earlier, http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2013/08/27/official-1000-followers-here-are-my-badges-thank-you/

Now here I am, August 2013, the old me is gone, but the essence of the old me is returning, I can feel him, I am starting to have fun more, smile more, look forward more, anticipate things more, I found out at the Weekend my Mum is getting  Married early next year, things just started falling back into place in my mind, from the outside Dawn may see no change, but I do, and I guess Dawn does, I just am unsure what she see’s, we will talk about it, as she reads all these. I am in a good place, I have been for a while now, I have the odd day, I am a blessed man, living the life I want to live now, I want to be in no pain and do football, but anyone who followed my journey from the start will know I came to terms with that, so now I look forward to new challenges, new good things, challenges I may not even know about, I still want to do Radio, I want to improve as a writer by 100% at least, I am not a writer, I am just lad with a keyboard sharing his journey with a group of people who care, and I can only be thankful, I now want to help people who may be where I was once, this would make me happy, to pay it back, this is what life is about, giving back what you received

Like everyone here, I have issues, I have a journey, I am living it, but today I can say I am back in control, never again shall I blog this http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/2013/08/04/no-human-should-have-to-live-like-this-so-unfair/ I have my mind back, I have to thank 1,000  people  (some more than others) People came and helped me walk through the door, or over the line to where I stand today. But as said, my feet are on the ground, the journey carries on, and I can’t wait, I am up for the challenge of what life will throw at me now. This didn’t happen today, this happened over many days and weeks, today I just felt it stronger than ever for some reason, and my mind is now mine again, I say that loosley though, as I am a Scottish man, we are a different breed of Men, complicated I would say, along the way here on Word Press I never made 1 enemy, people may have made me an enemy, but I can say hand on heart, I feel no hard feelings towards 1 person, everyone helped me, so now it is time to pay back, I need to visit YOU and speak to you, and I hope this is ok

I would like you thank you all for joining me on my journey as I approach my 1,000^th blog

As always, my blog, my rules, I had to leave a song 🙂

For anyone who doesn’t know, I will leave this, as I gain so many followers, many don’t know http://deliberatedonkey.wordpress.com/2013/07/02/murder-and-more-through-the-eyes-of-a-child/ But really, life is good now, all better, we are all happy as we can be, this was another life, one I had no control over. but I do now, I can decide to let it be what it is, the past, if it causes me issues, then so be it, I would say 2 year ago, maybe less, I WAS A MESS, I was on twitter, and I was gone, I tried to hide it, but in reality the medication was in control of a body I didn’t like a mind I hated, but here I am, look what I did, look what I achieved, I could have given in, but as I sit and write this I am published here http://www.broowaha.com/ a featured writer and Editors pick, I really did this? lol

Agony and tired Poem

I know this is a rubbish poem, but I am trying to work my mind to wake up

 

 

Legs are heavy like lumps of metal, eyes are heavy

My severe Pain is all over I feel I paid my levy

With legs like metal and so sleepy I feel unsteady

I just want to sleep, say good night because I am ready

 

I try to ignore it but I can’t so I write the pain away

But sadly the blues have come and beat me today

I feel like I haven’t slept for a week, I am so weak

Today at aged 40 I feel like an old battered antique  

 

What do I do, do I give in and go to bed, take the drugs?

Do I fight the heavy red eyelids and look for loving hugs

My mind feels like it’s someone else’s, one of a thug

I can’t think or feel today, there are no feelings of smug

 

Walking 10 feet from my laptop in the kitchen

Just to put the kettle on to make a cup of tea

Is like climbing a hill with one leg or climbing a tree

I feel like yesterday I walked from here to Dundee

 

My whole body aches like I just played football

Or spend the night before getting drunk at a dance hall

The truth is I spent yesterday watching TV on my lazyboy

I can honestly say this isn’t nice or cool there is no joy

 

Tomorrow is a new day, a day where things might be better

Maybe when I awake in a new day I will be a go getter

Perhaps if I am lucky and good I can write a love letter

Sadly I fear when I awake I know I will have had better

 

Pain and tiredness 

So let’s debate pain

Pain arrives to us all, everyone, like a thief in the night right?

Pain arrives in many differing forms, from body pain to grieving pain, one thing is sure, it hurts badly whatever for you have it, with my pain I just let it hit me, I gave up trying to beat it so just allowed it in and accepted it, not everyone is able to do that, but over time we must, or bad things happen

But what about other pain, pain of losing a loved one for example, my Aunt died 2 months ago, few month before my Uncle, it brought pain in many ways, I won’t explain, but this kind of pain can make people say and do things they would not usually say or do

The pain of finding out someone has, say, Cancer in your family can hit hard, I remember when my brother was told he had six months to live, it hit me like a train, this was many years ago now, he is still alive, he is my hero, the way he refused to allow this to eat him and destroy him was just amazing and one day, God showed me what a miracle was, he woke up one morning and the cancer had gone, he was down to 6 stone in weight

My nephew is in one of Scotland’s toughest prisons doing a long time for accidental murder to his friend, a kid I knew who’s like my nephew took, the jury seen it was an accident, as did the judge, but the issue surrounding why it happened in the first place was the reason he got so long in prison, this brought pain I had never felt before, I was his favourite uncle, and I was always trying to get him to change his path as I knew he would be killed or jailed, in the end, he lived, a friend died, so that was  pain

Another pain is watching your kids grow up and not being able to join in as normal Dads do, I can’t give my kids horseback rides or throw them in the air, and that brings pain and guilt, but I am here, we draw, do painting and puzzles, but this is a form of pain yeah? It is for me because of my pain

For me another pain is watching people you love suffer, my Mum suffers pain of her body and pain due to me, I don’t mean it, I remind her of my Dad perhaps, she scars are still there from the Childhood I had and the memories we both had to go through, if you have not read, please, feel free, this is my story, more pain http://deliberatedonkey.wordpress.com/2013/07/02/murder-and-more-through-the-eyes-of-a-child/ people think I am a nice guy, and I am, but this was not always the case, once not so long ago I seen pain every day, I can’t go into detail, but this causes me pain now, pain is a cycle, one pain can bring on another pain, the circle of life they say

What pain have you had to take? What pain do you live with? Please, share, let it out, it will do you no good keeping it locked up, so please, use this blog to share, if we do, this may happen

More love less hate

Shaun x

knees have no strength, ankle knackered/Small Violin

So here is the latest. Two swollen knees, that I can’t bend. Awoke this morning, they just don’t want to play ball (I am getting VERY American in my old age) 😀

Knee’s like light bulbs is the saying, sheer agony, tried Emugel, still nothing. Took me about 10 minutes to walk for a cup of tea, seeings as I am invisible today!!!

This box tells lies. I look nothing like the man in blue, I may sue! Dihydrocodeine, Tramadol and Diazepam, had 3 of each

Add to that my right Ankle

This is just as sore as it usually is, This is an older picture I happened to find online as I have done it 8 times now, the image was STILL on my Imageshack account. Anyway, pictures or no picture it is a shit state of affairs, I am bed ridden, can’t move, I am on my side, legs straight and a cushion between my knees. I can usually handle pain ok, this, hard. Two places I hear you say, well add my hips, spine neck, elbows, wrists, other ankle, hamstring on left knee and generally all over my body…

…It is just one of them days. It is strange how you get used to is, how the pain becomes normal, run of the mail rubbish day, But I have the Dog and you to keep me company. Courtney re-started nursery this morning, her 2nd year, not being able to go was a pisser, bit Dawn tool photos I think, She looked so sweet in her nursery/school uniform and her blond pig tails, she came into the room. gave me a kiss and was to excited for anything else. Chloe did the same, I think she thought she was going also, but she doesn’t start till the 27th of this month (Dawn if you read this, and I am wrong, it’s the medication)

Anyway

Shaun update at 10AM on this rubbish Thursday. I need to rest today fully as it is shopping  day tomorrow. It still troubles me how one day, 2 hours of shopping can be so hard these days. It truly is like planning a weekend away or something. Anyway, hope you all have a good day, this took me over half an hour to write, so you better read it lol

Shaun

To play me out, the worlds smallest violin 😦

Good Morning – MY 900th Blog! woooo yeah!

Sorry for getting all American in the Tittle, these things happen to idiots like me. so I will just  say it like a good British person “Horray”

Good morning to the Eastern World. The West is still asleep, the lazy sods!

Yesterday I fractured my right ankle, spent most of it in bed, on Morphine and in a lot of pain.  Still sore thins morning, but no medication as yet. I am happy to say there were NO Zombies or Lesbians. Although the Lesbian thing, I was kinda hoping for, but in a strange, “I didn’t really” kinda way. You know where I am going with this. For those confused, catch up, please

And here I am in a new day, a new dawn, and I am feeling good. My ankle is as swollen as a melon,  but I am in pain anyway, so, good morning, and I leave you with a song to say “Good Morning” THIS!!! Is a morning song. You may wish to turn them speakers up, get up, dance a little and be happy you are breathing. I can’t as my ankle is fractured. But I am dancing while sitting. I was thinking of recording me dancing, but my hair is a mess, maybe another day.

More love

Less hate

Shaunypoos 🙂

Morphine wins the day, Good night troops

Well I have been awake 35 hours or so, I think (feels like it) I have broken or fractures my right ankle for the 8th time, it’s swollen and went blue. I don’t even go to the hospital no more. I just stick on one of these  for a few weeks.

I have just taken 5mg of Morphine, the pain is UNREAL, so this is “Goodnight” from me. Been a hoot of a day here, kids playing the drums with 15 saucepans was brilliant for the old ear drums, But this is sore. And unfair, and I guess it pisses me off sometimes. I say I just get on with it, and I do, but this second, right now, as I type, just before the Morphine bangs me on the back of the head, I thought I would say goodnight. Pain is just not right, I find it shit that I can’t get a run of time with no pain. I got 2 weeks last month, and I was thankful for it, really was. But I went over on my ankle talking the dog to the back garden, on a stone! oh lucky me 🙂 So before the Morphine kicks in, just to say, you are all amazing people. If I could hug you all, I would hug about 843 of you, just saying, but I am only joking

Well the Morphine is kicking in here, so I am going before this turns into a novel.

Cya’s on the B side

More love, Less hate

Don’t hate each other, love each other, be nice, never gossip, people who gossip are hiding their shortcomings or issues, I learnt that from a pamphlet I found in a hedge may I add, so don’t believe it, it just made sense. Not the hedge, the pamphlet about gossips I mean, I think 

ok, the Morphine has kicked in, I am going to bed to stare at the wall

Catch!!

ps: READ THE TAGS BELOW, THEY MAKE SENSE TO ME RIGHT NOW, SAME AS THIS VERY IMPORTANT PICTURE ABOVE!
