HISTORY

Ritesh and Harsha had one dream for their only child: to be born under the best possible consequences. Which was after they had settled down in the United States, gotten their motel running, and ensured there was no possible way they could be sent back.

None of that worked out. Ajita Hannu was born in Mumbai, India, after all.

She grew up with her family, all of them on a small estate in the middle of the city, being exposed to the noises and the smells of her parent’s city. She was taught English by her mother’s sister, she learned some Hindi, but mostly she was kept at home while her parents tried to figure out their plan. Because the plan was still the plan. When her parents had finally gotten the visa’s and everything needed for their planned immigration, Ajita was seven. She had the same attitude as her peers: to be the best at everything.

Still, Pleasance Ohio was a huge adjustment. Everything was so quiet. Ajita spent a lot of her time either at home or at school, because she didn’t like how quiet it was. Something about it felt eerie. But slowly she became more and more acquainted with the other kids in the town, even if she had little time for it. Her parents owned the small inn at the border of the tow: the Southwood Inn. And between herself, her mom, her dad, and a friend of theirs who helps with the cleaning all the work is divided up. After school she helped out. Just a little bit at first, but by the time she was twelve, she did everything. And she did it as practically as possible. Ajita wasted not a single moment.

She would study while manning the front desk, listen to Spanish podcasts while she cleaned the rooms, and prepare her school paper while she checked the inventory. Ajita always had her hands in multiple projects at once. She was the main voice for less plastic at school, protected anyone at school who felt different, started a LGBTQ+ group because she had realised already at eleven that she was very much into women. Most people thought she was too much, always voicing her opinion or trying to get votes or signatures or followers or whatever she needed. She had very few friends, but she didn’t care. Her parents were her best friends, and Ajita had great plans. Like her parents, she had great plans.

Studying came effortless to Ajita, she got high marks, sucked in information at any opportunity and by age sixteen was fluent in English, Hindi, and Spanish, with the intention of learning Catalan, German, and Italian. To her every subject was equally important, but there was one thing she was most interested in: what people wanted. How people saw themselves. People. She wanted to know how humanity worked. So she applied at the University of Barcelona. Her parents weren’t happy, and she was met with some resistance. They didn’t want to let her go, afraid that she would be the odd one out, misunderstood, and that she didn’t want to come back. But they didn’t realise how much Ajita loved Pleasance. She would always come back.

After a whole lot of begging, Ajita was allowed to leave.

She moved to Barcelona at eighteen, her grades were top of the bunch, the scholarship was in her pocket, and she had grand dreams for her future. She was already on her way to study Catalan, and managed to pick her way through the application in Spanish without any difficulty.

She studied for one and a half year in Barcelona, traveling all over the country on the weekend, before she quit the program. The language was part of the problem, Catalan was different from Spanish, and because of her internal confusion trying to differentiate between two languages, she didn’t get the marks she wanted, or the marks that would keep her there.

Since she still had half a year till the next semester, Ajita traveled around most of Western and some of Eastern Europe, backpacking and crowd surfing. She had made enough friends over the years that she could knock on the doors in random cities and towns, and would always find a place to stay if she wasn’t staying in hostels. The experience was fantastic, and it was even better when she realised not much later that she had been accepted at the University of Ghent for another course in Philosophy.

Now nineteen, Ajita moved to Belgium for a second try at Philosophy, taking Dutch classes on the side and once again spending her weekends traveling all over, this time visiting places in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany.

Her bachelor was three years, and a one year Master - another reason why she came to love the Belgian system. That and she didn’t have to pay all that much when it came to tuition. But Ajita found more than just happiness in the place. She also learned a lot about herself. Belgium was a whole lot more accepting of her status as being a lesbian, but it wasn’t just that, she joined the LGBTQ+ clubs around the city of Ghent, and found herself.

Growing up they had always felt different, not really fitting the gender roles people had assigned to them. They didn’t like wearing dresses, they joined soccer teams, and all their friends growing up had been boys. They had felt slightly awkward in their own body, and jealous of male characters in the media. Growing up they wanted to be Batman or Ash Ketchum for Halloween, not a princes like their girly classmates. They loved getting dirty and felt awkward when someone suggested they wear make-up. They were a tomboy, according to the neighbors, their long hair always in a knot on the back of their head, checking out their face in the mirror, imaging themselves different.

Although Ajita could never really say different in what way.

Demi-girl was the term she adopted in Belgium, and she planned to bring home with her.

Their last summer vacation they traveled to India, where they stayed till Holi.

She returned home with a Bachelor in her pocket, and over twenty thousand followers on her youtube traveling account. Both of which were worth little back in Pleasance, but she would find a way.

The plan was to take over the family business, and then she was going to run for mayor, but before she would do everything she could to make Pleasance better. Her beloved hometown. Despite all the cities they had seen and placed they had visited, nothing could top Pleasance.

HEADCANONS

They have a husky called Charlemagne. They found him a year ago in Bulgaria, and after a whole lot of effort, managed to send him to their parents in Pleasance. For the past year they’ve taken care of him, but he instantly recognised Ajita when she returned home.

Ajita does not believe in Ghosts. She does believe that local legends can help Pleasance grow as a tourist spot.

Ajita is rather known around Pleasance, or was, before she left to study abroad. She was a very annoying kid, who was always putting a foot in someone’s business, writing her school paper, getting signatures. Ajita had so many causes that she got swamped half of the time. She would talk to anyone who she met on the street, any tourist, any traveler. The tourists love her, the locals not so much at times.

She helped put some places out of business when she was younger, outing businesses that were doing horrible things to their employees. But she has also managed to keep a lot of big corporations out, collecting so many signatures that she got a project stopped before it even began.

She doesn’t like George Alby at all.

Local businesses to Ajita are the most important thing in a small town, and big companies put them out of business is one of their major concerns. They understand the philosophy behind it, and get why small business have problems surviving while big corporations can go ahead without much trouble, but she believes there is a possibility.

They love backpacking, and hiking, which is what they always end up doing during the weekend, bringing Charlemagne along.

WANTED CONNECTIONS

- childhood friends: Ajita was seven when they came to Pleasance. They’re bound to have known most people around the school, being as active as they were, though few people could probably stand them.

- enemies: you don’t get as politically active as Ajita and not make any enemies, they are sure to figure out where they stand now, having returned after studying.

- visitors at the Southwood Inn: Ajita works at her parent’s business, though sometimes it looks like she’s the one running it. She’s not curious, but she will try to strike up a conversation.

June 16, 2020: King Felipe held videoconferences with the responsible for the Executive Committee of the Spanish Private Health Alliance (ASPE), and the IDIS Foundation (Institute for the Development and Integration of Health), which cover practically all of the Spanish private health actors, a strategic ally of the National Health System during the COVID-19 crisis.

This videoconference is developed within the framework of the contacts maintained by the King with the health sector during the pandemic, in which there have been calls and videoconferences, among others, to 47 hospitals and to the schools of Doctors, Pharmacists, and Nursing and of Psychology. And in those conversations, Don Felipe has sent a message of gratitude, encouragement and recognition to all those who have worked and still work today in the front line against the virus and which today has extended to private health professionals.

According to the data of the 2020 Report of the IDIS Foundation on private health, it represents a high weight in the Spanish productive sector and represents 2.6% of GDP. There are 8.7 million insured (18.5% of the population), perform 30.5% of surgical interventions; 23.5% of the discharges; 24.5% of emergencies; 23.5% of income; 17.5% of stays and 19.7% of consultations. It has 458 hospitals (57% of the total) and more than 51,000 beds (32% of the total), with almost 270,000 professionals and 215 places of residents in private centers in 2020 (24 university hospitals).

Don Felipe has spoken with the executive president of ASPE, Carlos Rus; the vice president, Juan Carlos González; and the honorary president and president of the CEOE Health and Social Affairs Commission, Cristina Contel, in a meeting in which they highlighted that it is one of the sectors most affected by the crisis due to its consideration as an essential sector. This has required the maintenance of operational resources with total and absolute availability, with provisioning costs at an unprecedented speculative level, limitations on the adequacy of structures and expenses, deprogramming of all non-urgent activities; and, in general, with a huge decrease in ordinary activity.

ASPE explains that, depending on the impact of the pandemic in each territory, private health has maintained a different degree of participation with the regional administrations. In areas such as Madrid or the province of Barcelona it has been necessary to double and triple ICUs. In regions such as Castilla-La Mancha or Castilla y León, the creation of parallel circuits was chosen, where the private circuit was used as a COVID-free circuit. On the other hand, it indicates that in the regions with the least pandemic affection, all the private infrastructure was also available, but without being required. All healthcare areas have been significantly affected due to the management of the pandemic. Specifically, surgical interventions decreased by 83%, diagnostic tests by 79%, emergencies by 73% and consultations by 67%. ASPE representatives highlight that, despite the difficulties that the centers are going through, 89% hired new professionals during the crisis, 5% in the comparison of the same period of the previous year.

Another capital issue is related to investments in protective equipment, which only increased by 71% in April and March compared to the entire year of 2019. The most extreme case is that of surgical masks, whose price has increased 1,423% compared to the existing price in December 2019.

The Spanish Private Health Alliance (ASPE) groups almost 1,300 private health entities, among which are hospitals and clinics, specialized centers, laboratories, health transport companies, etc. ASPE has more than 80% representation of the country's private hospital centers. In addition, the territorial associations of Catalonia, Community of Madrid, Basque Country, Andalusia, Galicia, Balearic Islands and Murcia are part of the Spanish Private Health Alliance.

In addition, it maintains a firm commitment from the private sector to the patient, the development of the health professional and their respective training, as well as to quality care, research and innovation in all its forms of expression as an element of sustainability and differentiation.

The IDIS Foundation warns that it works with the premise that private healthcare neither competes nor is an alternative to public healthcare, but that both should complement each other to form an integrated healthcare system. During the 10 years of its existence, the IDIS Foundation has carried out multiple studies that show the excellent level reached by this system of private ownership, not only for its contribution of wealth in terms of GDP and qualified employment, but also in key aspects such as healthcare quality, technological and biopharmaceutical innovation, research and training.

In his opinion, the objective of private health during the COVID19 pandemic has been to enhance collaboration with public administrations and optimize their resources, which has materialized in different actions and strategies to expand coverage to the maximum number of patients.

If you’re ready to get started in a career that involves cooking, preparing foods, designing menus and testing recipes, choose your culinary school wisely. There are many good schools and programs, but only a handful can be the best.

Mari!!! On Ice (Update)

Chapter 4: Disaster and Dancing! The GPF Free Skate! Part 1: The Warm Up!

(ao3)

Adrien sprinted, turning down a random alleyway, barely breaking a sweat as he jumped a locked chain-linked fence. The hood of his grey hoodie promptly fell back, revealing his mussed blonde hair. Landing softly on he hard concrete, he turned to see the screeching tires of his coach’s town car as it ditched the idea of chasing him down the narrow path.

Perhaps he should’ve just answered his phone.

Grinning widely, he mentally patted himself on the back for a successful foray into a small act of rebelliousness. He had snuck out of the hotel and made his way to the arena relatively undetected. Not only had he had gotten to watch the warm up, he even managed to stick around to watch a couple of the performances of the ladies’ short program.

One of those skates being from Adrien’s old – and some would say only – friend Chloe. And while it wasn’t her best skate, Adrien was happy to have been there to experience it in person and to support his friend from close by. He would have to be sure to text her some words of encouragement sometime tomorrow, once the wounds had some time to heal. Unfortunately just before Chloe had wrapped up her performance, the continued hum from his phone in his pocket alerted him that people were most likely alerted to his absence, which led him to standing outside the arena, contemplating the pros and cons to answering the incessant buzzing of his cell.

Which had led to an even more fascinating development. Standing outside, Adrien had managed to bump into his French female counterpart. He knew he recognized her the minute he grabbed her hand to help her up off the ground. She wore a familiar black jacket, one which Adrien himself had a copy of, given to him by the French Skating Federation. Of course, he himself never wore his… his father always specially made his own custom sportswear and had his outfits planned just as intricately as his schedule.

Still, the giddiness and freedom he felt in his anonymity – he had to ensure no one recognized him of course – had left him able to interact with his own peer. He had actually quietly cheered and admired her skate earlier that night. And while he couldn’t recall ever really meeting her in person – other than passing by one another throughout the years – Adrien felt a pressure to ensure he made a good first impression. Luckily for him though, she hadn’t identified him as Adrien Agreste, so he found himself behaving much more outgoing and wild from his usual reserved self.

Back to his daring escape, Adrien turned, his back grazing against the cool metal of the fence now behind him. Grinning, he whipped the pair of sunglasses he wore off his face, picturing himself as a hero in some cheesy action movie, aloofly walking away from a major explosion in the background. He stood tall in his achievement, tucking the sunglasses into his pocket and puffing his chest out, before being suddenly pulled back by his shoulder.

“Ack!” he yelped, falling back against the malleable fence wall, uncharacteristically flailing for a moment before regaining his balance. He glanced over his shoulder to see his leather jacket had gotten tangled into the wire netting of the fence. Huffing a deep breath, Adrien slipped out of his jacket, intent of getting it free.

As he delicately worked on untangling the black leather from its silver, metal trap, he felt another familiar murmur of his cellphone emanating from his jacket pocket.

Sighing, he reached forward knowing exactly who was phoning him. So far tonight, he had been quite adamant about ignoring these calls, but after almost getting run over he figured it might be for the best to try to appease the situation. He stared down at his phone screen for a moment, still hesitant, before reluctantly answering the call.

“Yes, Coach Serdtsebezski?”

“Adrien,” replied a hash, steely, Russian accented voice, “Vhere are you?”

Giving up momentarily on his jacket, Adrien reached a hand up to scratch the back of his head, “Just leaving the gym…”

He could easily picture her ice-cold glare. Having known him since he was very young, Adrien’s coach, Nataliya Serdtsebeznykh was a renowned figure skating coach. Ever professional and even more so strict, Gabriel Agreste had hired her on to coach his son after his wife’s sudden illness. But even prior to that Nataliya had always been a close family friend, so Adrien had long since been accustomed to her extremely cold demeanour that matched the unforgiving industry in which she excelled.

So it was no surprise to Adrien that she immediately seemed skeptical of his answer, easily able to see through his lies.

“The one in the hotel?” she asked.

Pausing for a moment, Adrien ran through his options. He could say he was at a gym close by… but he wouldn’t know any specifics, specifics that his Coach would for sure ask about. But if he said he was in the hotel, he would have to haul ass and get back there as soon as possible.

Clearing his throat, Adrien answered, “Yes… I, I just felt that some light cardio would be good as a cool down from practice this morning… so I just did a bit of work on the treadmill and some stretching.” Internally, he flinched, not even able to convince himself of the half-baked lie, “I’m just heading back to my room. Going to go to bed, so…”

“Is that right? I thought the gym would be close this time of night.”

“Ah, well, they kept it open… It was pretty busy…”

A pause. Adrien shifted, reaching to tug on his jacket once more. They both knew he wasn’t in the hotel.

“Well then,” his coach continued, and Adrien let out a breath that he hadn’t realized he had been holding, “if you don’t mind, would you be able to join us at the bar for a quick run through of your program and discuss tomorrow’s skate?”

Finally getting his jacket free, Adrien juggled holding his phone to his ear, while putting his jacket back on and dancing around a response to reply with, “Ah, well… I’m pretty tired, so I was planning on going to bed.” He laughed nervously, “You know how important sleep is before a competit–”

“Adrien,” she interrupted curtly, immediately silencing his rambling, her voice even more severe and dissonant, “You’re father is here.”

Eyes wide, Adrien almost dropped his phone in shock, “I – I, whaaat– ? Father is h-here?”

Slightly exasperated, Nataliya replied, “Yes, met us down in at the bar, immediately.”

And with that the call ended.

Adrien froze, his phone in hand, staring down at the screen flashing at him that the call was indeed over, and that yes that conversation had just taken place. Whipping his head back up to look around him, Adrien immediately began to orient himself in the middle of the busy Barcelona streets, calculating the quickest way back to the hotel.

“Shit,” he muttered quietly under his breath.

And for the second time that night, Adrien found himself once again sprinting across the city intent on reaching his destination in a believable amount of time – more specifically the amount of time it would take to get from his penthouse suite in the hotel to the posh bar in the lobby.

The first time Marinette had seen Adrien Agreste skate, she knew she was watching magic.

His edgework was flawless, accented further by the deep bend in his knees that he made look breathtakingly easy, and on top of all this, his jumps were perfect – a stunning mixture of strong and powerful, while at the same time beautifully graceful. He was everything that judges looked for: high levels of difficulty, excellent grades of execution, and artistry.

Marinette, only 11 years old at the time, had just been accepted into INSEP, the National Institute of Sport. That previous spring she had started her training at the center, found in the Bois de Vincennes, just on the outskirts of Paris. She adored it. Being able to go to straight to the arena first thing in the morning – even if she had to endure waking up early and the 1-hour commute on the metro.

From dawn ‘til dusk, and even in her dreams, her time was filled with thoughts on skating. Thinking about the costumes, the choreography, the techniques, the spins, the jumps… the list was endless and ever growing. Albeit there were interludes of study sessions, but the older athletes spoke tales and wonders of getting their baccalauréat diploma as early as 15 in order to focus more time of training and competitive skating. This new world almost entirely immersed in figure skating was a dream come true.

Which had eventually led to a group field trip for Marinette and a few of the young figure skaters that winter. They, along with some selected locals were invited to be flower sweepers at the 2008 French Figure Skating Championships in Megève, and young Marinette had danced in celebration.

The job was simple, skate on the ice after each performance and collect the various bouquets and gifts that had been thrown forth from the crowd. Dressed in pretty and simple dark blue outfits, they were meant to showcase their quick and efficient skating techniques while at the same time gain the experience of being on a national stage and dealing with the atmosphere of competition.

“I’m going to go out there… skate the fastest and pick up the most plushies than anyone!” bellowed Alix, a short and spunky, pinked haired skater, who while being a year older than Marinette, still sat shorter than her. Their coaches had deemed her ideal for pairs skating, a daredevil on and off the ice, who had no problem being lifted and thrown about. However, the one deterring factor was that no partnership seemed to fit just right, and they often ended in some passive aggressive silent treatments for weeks on end. Marinette however had no problem getting along with Alix. They spent many afternoons and warm-ups racing each other in laps around the ice.

“And then, while everyone else is still picking up their first bunch of flowers,” she continued, a bright spark in her eyes, “I’m gonna do a double Salchow.”

“Alix…” piped another of Marinette’s training mates, Rose, a kind-hearted girl, the youngest of them all, “You wouldn’t want to get in trouble! Oh it would be awful if they sent you home because of that!”

“Pffffft,” Alix returned, crossing her arms and leaning back against the hard train seats, “I’d like to see ‘em try!”

At this the group broke out into giggles at Alix’s jeer. They had more than gotten accustomed to her talks of glory and astonishment, and while they knew better than to expect her to go through with said plan, together they delighted in imagining the skaters they would see in person.

“Oh!!! I’m so excited to see Brain Joubert!” Rose swooned.

“I’m excited to see the ladies programs,” Marinette added, “I bet their costumes will be divine!”

Alix, completely oblivious to the others, stared out the window, “I wonder how fast this train is going?”

It wasn’t until later the next day in the Palais des Sports Arena that Marinette stood at the boards, mouth about in awe.

They had been at the arena for almost the entire day, drinking hot chocolate and watching as the competitors warmed up. A pair of hairdressers had even stopped by to do their hair and have them ready for the ice. They cooed over Marinette’s pigtails, eventually deciding to leave them be – with the addition of hairspray and glitter of course. Rose on the other hand, with her long blonde hair, was given an elegant high bun, wrapped in a braid. She admired the handiwork in the mirror, thanking the hairdressers profusely and giggling under the shower of added glitter.

Alix however did not receive the same treatment. The hairdressers lamented over her asymmetrical haircut, and sweated in combing out all her tangles. Eventually they fashioned some sort of side bun with one side of her hair French-braided. She scowled when approached with the thought of glitter and promptly dodged any attempts – dodges that managed to askew bits and pieces of her hair before they were even on the ice!

Today’s events so fair had mostly been the Junior brackets, and it was enjoyable to watch as skaters just a little older than themselves skated across the ice, giving them hopes and glimpses into their possible futures.

At least it was enjoyable for most of them.

“This is lame…” Alix whispered as they waited for the start of the Junior Men’s Short Program, “When do we see the good stuff?”

“Oh hush, Alix!” Rose scolded half-heartedly, a small giggle escaping her pretend scowl. Because in the end, they all sort of were somewhat unimpressed, having just watched the Junior Ladies’ Short Program, knowing that soon they would easily skate just as well as most of the competitors. It made them thirsty to show off their own prowess, but instead they were assigned to skate around like babies, picking up various gifts thrown on the ice, basically invisible as all eyes stayed glued onto the performers.

But the day changed for Marinette once her eyes locked on to his.

It wasn’t until he gotten a few seconds into his short program that Marinette had really noticed him. Prior to that, he was just another skater. He was dressed simply and elegantly. Perfectly tailored black dress pants with a simple white button-up shirt, rolled up to his elbows, a peek of a black t-shirt underneath and matching black suspenders running up his torso and over his shoulders. Nothing entirely groundbreaking or eye-catching but nevertheless he looked very well put together.

His music was classical, a generic choice, but something about it in combination to his skating made her think of springtime. Perhaps it was the brightness of his blonde hair, or the verdant richness of his beautiful green eyes that reminded her of rain-soaked grass and twining vines – details that she couldn’t help but catch as he passed by, so close and so fast. His eyes looked into the crowd as his circled the rink’s boundaries, picking up speed.

Of course he wasn’t looking at her directly, but in her memories she liked to think he spotted her, picked her out from the crowd. He moved with a grace that kept the arena silent in awe. His footwork perfectly timed and matching with the rushing, complex melody of his program. He looked charmingly young and spirited even though his moments on the ice showed maturity and mastery of the sport. The choreography of his skating was made to look easy and lovely, despite the fact that Marinette could see the perfection of his technique and the difficultly inherent in his subtle movements.

And when he jumped.

He flew.

Over the applause of the crowd, Marinette could vaguely hear her friends next to her.

“Wow,” gapped Rose, eyes wide.

“Who…?” asked Alix.

Mariette, sitting in between the two, was barely able to register their gasps, let alone her own. Instead she watched as the boy landed his triple-triple combination jump flawlessly, stretching out his free leg behind him, his face breaking into a triumphant smile.

And in that smile, Marinette felt the summer sun.

The feeling was fleeting, but it reminded her of something – something she had no words in her young vocabulary to describe. It was as if she was back home in Paris at the rink she visited almost every day, sitting under the heaters awaiting her turn on the ice, or the feeling of biting into a fresh pastry still warm and fresh from the oven in her parents’ bakery.

He continued on, lunging into a layback Ina Bauer. His feet stretched across the ice in an extended fourth position, emphasizing the outside edge of his skates. As he exited the move, he swung his arms back, lifting a leg off the ice behind him. And in one smooth movement, he leapt up into the air, using the moment of his limbs to swing into a tight spinning position.

And again he easily landed another component: a triple Axel.

His smile was much more subdued in that landing. An innocent one-sided grin as if he was not surprised to have landed such a difficult element.

The ephemeral familiarity Marinette had felt stretched on; her eyes were transfixed on his performance, unaware of the deep blush upon her cheeks.

“Who the hell is that?!” asked Alix.

Her question went unanswered. None of them had been listening when the boy had come on the ice, and now they were much to invested in watching him complete his program.

As he came to a final stop, holding his final pose for a few counts, Alix’s query was finally answered.

“From Paris, Adrien Agreste,” blared the arena speakers.

From Paris?! Marinette thought, slightly stunned, unaware of the bustling and movement around her. Everyone was moving towards the boards ready to be unleashed onto the ice.

She was however, quickly reminded of her job, as one of the supervisors whisper-yelled, “Allez! Go, go!!! Vite! Fast now, children!”

The doors to the ice were opened and quickly they spread out along the ice, racing to collect bouquets, flowers, cards, and toys being thrown from the audience.

Marinette, still a bit dazed, dawdled behind her counterparts, most of who zoomed forth to the farthest reaches of the ice. This left Marinette, gliding slowly along the ice’s perimeter, idly grabbing for objects around her, her eyes mostly focusing on the boy at center ice. His blonde hair fluttered as he bowed to the crowd, before springing perfectly back into its stylized place. Smiling widely, he waved humbly, before turning and skating towards the doors… towards Marinette.

Jumping slightly and tangled in nerves, Marinette tried to finally focus on her task in favour of attracting any attention from the skilled skater in front of her. He glided slowly, hands on his hips as he took several deep breaths, staring down at the ice below him.

Marinette suddenly determined, caught a clash of black fluff against the ice, moving forward and stretching down, she grabbed the soft plush, smiling at the little green-eyed animal in her hands.

Turning slightly, she reached for another nearby gift, a delicate bundle of red roses, wrapped in plastic. Just as she bent down to scooped up the blossoms, her eyes caught on to the close proximity she held to the skater, Adrien.

Instinctively she flinched in shock, even though she was nowhere close to being in danger of colliding with him. His nearness, however, seemed to put her on edge, causing for her to momentarily lose balance. Floundering, she overcompensated her backwards momentum, leaning much too forward, to quickly, still intent on retrieving the red roses.

And that is how Marinette made her debut on the national stage – albeit not as a competitor but as a volunteer – by tripping right in front France’s rising ingénue, skating prodigy, Adrien Agreste.

Looking back on it now, Marinette had one silver lining to the situation. Thank God Chloe had not been witness to her humiliation. If the blonde bully had indeed known or been present, it was without a doubt that Marinette would still be dealing with the occasional jeer and pestering at her own expense.

Still, this thought was not something 11-year old Marinette was privy to, so it did not to quell Marinette’s utter mortification. She tried her best to recover quickly, refusing to look up and catch the eyes of those laughing at her or staring at her with pity. No, no, no, she wished for nothing more than to believe this had never happened, and the avoidance of any reaction from those around her seemed like a sure bet to keep her in the waters of denial for a moment longer.

Stubbornly focusing on the ice, she reached out for the fallen roses; quickly grabbing the black cat plush she had dropped, collecting the gifts with haste. Eventually she ran out of items to gather, leaving her to finally compose herself, to rise up with grace and shake off the embarrassment. She huffed a heavy breath, preparing herself.

She looked up.

Oh…

The flash of green caught her immediately.

Oh no.

Her heart fluttered, no longer in her control. As Adrien Agreste, eyes wide with concern closed the short distance between them, coming to a smooth stop in front of her. Internally Marinette screamed. Externally her eyes glazed slightly, obscuring her vision. She blinked, determined to keep the embarrassed tears from falling down her face.

Adrien’s face seemed to soften kindly as he bent down, reaching a hand out towards her.

Staring up at him, Marinette fought her frown, fought her watering eyes, and tried and failed to fight back the sudden onslaught of blush across her freckled cheeks.

Her gaze flickered back and forth from his outstretched hand to his green, green eyes, oddly confused as to what to do – suddenly shy and stunned.

In reaction, she jerked her arms forward, offering the boy his gifts. She placed the bundle of roses into his offered hard.

He stared at her puzzled in silence, looking down at the roses, a smile growing upon his face.

And he laughed.

Her immediate instinct told her that he was laughing at her expense, clearly appalled at her behaviour. How could such a poor skater have been chosen to skate in front of greatness?

The thought alone had her imagination running, telling her to become a hermit, to travel the world, a desolate vagabond, seeking refuge in any land that wouldn’t instantly banish her, recognizing her as the flower sweeper girl at the 2008 French National Championships… You think you can hide your face here? They would say, jeering her unforgivingly –

However as she stared back into his dazzling eyes, crinkled in delight, she realized he was not laughing at her, but just perhaps the situation: a little girl down on one knee offering him flowers.

She smiled up at him nervously, her mouth twitching slightly, before she too broke out into giggles.

Adrien smiled, this hand wrapping around the roses, taking them from Marinette. He transferred them to his left hand and again reached out towards her.

“Hello,” he smiled brightly.

“I’m sorry!” Marinette impulsively replied.

His brow furrowed, his lips pursed, “No – That’s, that’s okay. Are you alright?”

She nodded.

He smiled again, “Oh good, can I help you up?”

“Oh!” she blushed, “Oh, I – Um, yes, of course.” She took his hand and he easily helped her back up to standing, him holding the red roses, her holding a fluffy black cat plush.

“T-thank you,” she said.

He bowed dramatically, letting go of her hand before standing back up straight. “It was no problem, little lady.”

“Adrien!” someone called from the boards.

He looked away from her, both of them brought back to reality. But before he skated away, he turned back to her. He reached into the bundle of flowers, plucking a single thorn-less rose out from the bunch. Smiling wide, he offered it to her.

“Here,” he smiled, “For you.”

Glancing up at him, her vision swept back and forth between his emerald eyes and the beautiful red petals, until finally she tentatively reached up, fingers bumping his as her transferred the single red rose into her hand.

She looked up to he his retreating back, walking off the ice into the arms of his coaches. As she watched him go, she twirled the rose in her hands. He didn’t turn back to give Marinette another view of his lovely green eyes or another glance at his winning smile. She sighed, looking down at the pretty rose in her hands.

And in doing so she missed Adrien as he glanced over his shoulder. Smiling, he looked back at the girl on the ice, thinking in wonder that he had just made a friend.

Marinette padded along her section of the room, thick heavy socks on her feet as she stared around the warm-up room. Her soft woolen socks did little to muffle the nervous shuffling of her feet. All around, her competition had gathered, everyone preparing for the free skate. On the TV on the wall played out the ice dancing free dance, showing couples twirling and gliding gracefully across the ice. Staring around the rest of the room, Marinette watched as most of the other girls stretched out, wearing headphones to cancel out any distractions.

Dressed in plentiful layers overtop her free skate performance dress, Marinette closed her eyes, running through her program in her mind for the 100th time. In her head she could hear the music and she easily raised her arms at the right musical beats and even bouncing in time to practise her jumps. As she mapped out her skate, imagining herself on the ice. However, even with all the practise and preparation, she couldn’t help but shake the sinking heaviness in her bones, the cold sweat breaking on her skin, and even more distracting, the feeling of eyes on her.

Uneasy and uncomfortable, Marinette stopped her practise to look out across the room. Almost instantly she met the angry glare of Chloe. The blonde skater sat on the ground, on the opposite side of the room, her legs stretched out into a side spit.

Clad in her white and gold dress, Chloe was staring daggers in Marinette’s direction. Her platinum hair had been precisely pulled back into a high ponytail that flowed down her back, swishing from side to side as Chloe shook her head at Marinette, her arms crossed over her chest.

In response Marinette raised her eyebrows in question. What on earth was her problem?

Loudly, Chloe clucked her tongue, before proceeding to loudly chew on a piece of gum. Her eyes still locked on to Marinette as she blew a bubble.

Pop!

Blinking in astonishment, Marinette turned around, determined to not let Chloe get to her. In doing so, she almost smacked into a girl about her own age. She stood a bit shorter than Marinette, her bright orange-red hair but into a chin-length bob and held away from her face with a simple white headband. Her outfit was demure and almost business like, an argyle sweater over a white collared shirt and simple black dress pants. On her face she wore thick tortoise shell glasses, completing her outfit, giving her an air of intelligence.

“Oh! Sorry!” the girl peeped, a high pitch voice and a sympathetic smile as she walked around Marinette, mirroring Marinette’s own gasped apology.

Together the two girls shared a quick smile before Marinette was again reminded of her original goal by another loud pop from behind her. Trying her best to ignore the sound, Marinette took out her phone from her jacket pocket. In her distraction she failed to notice another shared look in the room as the redheaded girl continued on her way out of the room. As the girl walked past Chloe she gave a small and firm nod of her head, to which Chloe smiled conspiratorially. Oblivious to such an inconspicuous action, Marinette unlocked her phone, refreshing the news page link that Alya had sent her the night before. On the screen she smiled looking at and reaffirming her placement after the short program.

3 – Marinette Dupain-Cheng (FRA)

She hadn’t been dreaming. She was in definite medal contention, and at the Grand Prix Finals! She bit back a smile, her body vibrating, either with nerves or happiness, or some sick mixture of both.

And just below her name on the standings:

4 – Chloe Bourgeois (USA)

As bad as it sounded, this made Marinette smile grow even more. But this was a competition, and Chloe had made it perfectly clear throughout their years together that they were not friends, so Marinette did feel some satisfaction and validation in knowing that she had outskated her rival in the short program.

Not only that but Marinette actually had a realistic chance in placing on the podium today. Her first Grand Prix Final – and a medal within her grasp!

From behind her, Marinette could still hear the crude sound of gum smacking. She reached down into her bag nearby, finally deciding to follow the example of the other skaters with their earphones on. And so Marinette put her own pair on, playing her free skate music from her phone and closing her eyes once more to gain her concentration. She continued visualizing her skate, stretching out her limbs and jogging on the spot to keep herself warm until her breathing became shallower and shallower. Whether it was due to nerves or exertion, she couldn’t say, although deep, deep down she could feel the growing weight and pressure set upon her.

Eventually it got to the point where she needed to get her skates on, so Marinette sat down and began to lace up her skates. Soon the skaters would be given their stipulated warm-up time on the ice and then the free skate would begin. The order of skaters was determined by the ranking from the short program the night before. Chloe, being in 4th place currently, was to skate 2nd, followed by Marinette.

Humming along to the sounds of her music, Marinette pulled and tighten her skate laces, delicately and patiently going through the process she had done countless times before. The activity helped to settle some of the unease she was feeling. Simply focusing on the pressure to her feet over the pressure on her shoulder. She flexed her feet and ensured her tying was secure, before standing back up staring down at her skates in their bright pink skate guards with a smile – one that faltered as she was reminded of the stakes at hand.

Looking back at her phone to check the time, she noticed a short text from Alya wishing her luck. She smiled, sending her back a few happy emojis. After another few moments of stretching out and walking on the spot, Marinette collected herself and made her way into the hallway, deciding to get a feel for her blades in a brisk walk before eventually making her way to the ice. She knew where she could find Cheryl so she could pass over her bag to her and receive the time-honoured pep talk. Until then in her hand she was picturing herself on ice, remembering each jumping pass and imagining her landing every single one perfectly. It will be fine, she chanting over and over in her head.

“Watch your edge on your Lutz,” said Cheryl.

It will be fine, Marinette breathed, her throat running dry and constricting.

“Try a couple for your warm up, and don’t worry, just focus on getting used to the ice.” Cheryl continued, “Don’t push yourself.”

Marinette nodded. I can do this. I can do this, she affirmed made her way towards the rink.

It will be fine.

Right?

It was not fine. Nothing was fine.

She stood at center ice, hands shaking, her chest heaving already, as desperately tried her best to hold her starting position. But nothing felt right, her face small smile that was suppose to give off an air of serenity, felt forced and unfamiliar. And worst of all she could fell it. She felt everyone’s eyes on her as she stood there, tiny and cold on the ice. The judges, the audience, her coaches, Chloe Bourgeois and…

Adrien Agreste.

He was here and everything was wrong, it was awful. And she couldn’t spot him out from the sea of people. It made it almost worse, because Marinette knew – she just knew – that out there the great Adrien Agreste was out there watching her skate.

And she was angry.

Just before the group warm-up all but 20 minutes prior, Marinette had stood, nervously waiting alongside the other skaters for their ice time. Just a little ways down the boards from her, the two Russian competitors stretched out, totally in their own world. The other skaters, the two Japanese skaters, cheerfully stood by, talking to each other and holding each other’s hands. Still wearing her gloves and jacket, Marinette smiled softly in their direction as she fiddled with her hands, trying to keep her mind relaxed. She took off her gloves, bundling them into a makeshift stress ball, focusing on her program and trying not to look up into the stands and the audience’s expectant stares.

The moment was interrupted suddenly by a loud, dissonant laugh from behind her.

Chloe.

Marinette sighed in annoyance, stuffing her balled up gloved into her jacket pocket, about ready to tell Chloe off for being so loud when everyone was trying to focus. But just as the thought crossed her mind, she reminded herself that doing so probably would most likely do no good. Chloe did what Chloe wanted, and she almost always got her way. It would only serve as another distraction, one that Marinette could not afford to stack onto her worried and chaotic state of mind.

Finally the announcements began, introducing the event and alerting the skaters that it was time. The group gathered near the entranceway on to the ice, each girl reaching for their blade guards with their respective coaches hovering nearby.

Marinette reached down to remove her bright pink guards from her skates. As she removed them, something suddenly felt wrong, a weird and gross tacky-ness that made one of her guards more difficult to take off.

Looking down at her left skate she noticed a string of some sort of plaster or resin coming off her skate blade. Puzzled she reached down, seeing the source of it had been caked into the groves of her guard.

As her hands came into contact with the gunk, a chilling jolt of realization ran through her –

It was gum.

Panicking slightly, and ignoring the peals of laughter from behind her, Marinette wiped her hands instinctively on her jacket. Gross, gross, gross, she thought as she turned to Cheryl, eyes wide.

“Do you have any tissues?!?” she asked.

Cheryl immediately handed her some from her bag, with a look of sympathy, “Oh Marinette what happened?”

“I – I don’t know,” she answered, having taken a few tissues from her coach and working on cleaning off her skate blade, “There’s – just, um – there’s g-gum on my blade!”

As she continued to clean off her blades the boards were opened, inviting the skaters onto the slick surface, accompanied by the announcer introducing the skaters.

The other skaters began to make their ways onto the ice, leaving Marinette behind as she worked to clean off her skate. The tissues were able to remove most of the gum, but remnants of it still remained coating the edges of her skate. She tried to scrape off as much as she could, but even then the tissues just ended up sticking to the surface making chunks of tissue-gum.

“That’s good enough for now, honey,” Cheryl patted her shoulder, “You just go out and do your warm-up, we can clean it up after.”

Marinette nodded, carefully handing Cheryl her skate guards and used tissues as she turned to the ice.

As Marinette placed a skate on the ice, testing the effect of the gum on her skate, a voice spoke out from behind her.

It was Chloe again with a disgustingly saccharine and overly flirty giggle that had Marinette internally gagging.

“Thanks again for the gum, Adrikins!” Chloe exclaimed loudly, “You’re the greatest!”

No… Marinette thought. Thinking back on Chloe’s continued cold treatment towards her today and her annoyingly loud gum chewing. No way would Chloe sink that low, would she?

Turning around with a frown Marinette looked up at her training mate with an angry frown.

But before she was able to form any sort of response to the situation, Marinette’s eyes caught on the figure standing beside Chloe.

Adrien Agreste.

He was standing right next to Chloe, with an adorable, yet confused look on his face. He was dressed in Gabriel designer sportswear, the signature “G” in a circle imprinted over his chest.

Also standing next to Chloe was the redheaded girl from earlier. Her arms were crossed and she was snickering, joining Chloe in her ridiculing behaviour.

“Really Adrien, I’m so glad you could make it! It so nice to have you here to support us in this sticky situation.” Chloe continued, waving a hand in Marinette’s direction, a smug smile on her face as she looked at Marinette, eyebrows raised with a challenge in her eye.

Marinette took a few seconds to absorb the situation. Fighting back the immediate reaction to blush at Adrien’s presence, the pieces of the puzzle seemed to land into place before her.

“Oh…” she said meekly, looking down at her skate, “I get it…”

It was some sort of sick prank, wasn’t it? Her anger seemed to melt into just plain sadness, the harsh furrow in her brow fading into disappointment and defeat. How inappropriate and ill timed… or was it some sort of sabotage at Marinette’s expense? How could Chloe do this?

Adrien stood there not really sure what was happening.

“I – what?” he looked from Marinette to Chloe, not understanding.

“Yeah… I get it, very funny…” Marinette continued, sarcasm dripping off every word, masking her utter embarrassment and humiliation.

Chloe and the redhead jeered.

”No – no! I – “ he tried to reply, most likely with an excuse, but Marinette didn’t wait to hear it. Huffing, she turned; pushing herself away from the conversation, now was not the time. She needed to focus.

She glided across the ice, feeling a little bump from the bits of gum still left on her left skate blade. Circling around the ice, trying to get a feel for it, Marinette tried to empty her mind of the whole mess that had just occurred.

Don’t focus on it, Marinette, she told herself. She twirled here and there, switching from forwards to backwards skating, pushing into the ice and testing its surface.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Chloe also nearby, flawlessly landing a triple flip.

Shaking her head to try to escape her worries, Marinette practiced a spin, going into a layback position and trying to find a steady point to focus on.

As her head tilted back in the spin she caught a glance of Adrien Agreste watching from the boards.

Faltering out of her spin, Marinette pushed on, trying not to let them get the better of her. This was a mind game, and she would show them that she could win.

Quote

Who is Andreas Kalcker? Andreas Kalcker is a "German biophysicist who lived in Switzerland who has been researching for more than 13 years with chlorine dioxide for therapeutic use." In German speaking countries, Kalcker is one of the most well known promoters of MMS. He promotes it as a health cure. He follows Jim Humble, an American that founded the Genesis II church. He pushes the MMS protocol in Latin countries in South America. He is cited in numerous groups in videos. What about his education?Kalcker received his "Doctor of Philosophy in Alternative and Natural Biophysics" from a company called Open University of Advanced Sciences, inc. It is based in Barcelona. It has a branch in Florida. The company has no campus, offers degrees for sale. A doctorate costs 1,500 euros. The location of this "University"Kalcker's Degree Vs A real degreeKalcker's Mail order degreeAnd compare it to a real degree from an institution of higher learning:My bachelors degree of Applied Science in Veterinary TechnologyThe Open University of Advanced Sciences, inc is not accredited and is considered a degree mill. On the landing page of the Open University of Advance Science, inc there is this disclaimer:The Open University of Advanced Sciences clarifies that it does not maintain any type of link with the Genesis II Church, nor does it advocate for the medical or therapeutic use of MMS. On the other hand, the relationship with the so-called Chair of Naturism, in Madrid, is part of the old structure of our entity and the honorary titles that our previous Director, Pedro Carrasco (RIP) granted them, currently have only a symbolic value, not being part of the management staff. The purpose of this information is to provide you with the possibility of accessing higher education through the "Distance Learning" system , developed by the Open University of Advanced Sciences Inc. (External Degree of Campus). The Open University of Advanced Sciences Inc. was established mainly for the development, dissemination and teaching of study programs of all those subjects that have in common advanced aspects of science in any of the areas of knowledge. In this sense, it maintains relationships with leading universities, foundations, research centers and educational institutions around the world. The non-traditional teaching system that we propose is designed to provide, on an ongoing basis, updated training that enhances professional qualification, through personalized distance learning that establishes programs that are appropriate to the needs of each student and in which they are taken into account. All the knowledge you have is counted and valued, as well as the professional experience you have accumulated in your work practice. In the event that such training has already been provided by your center, it is possible to operate through direct validation in accordance with the applied study programs. This educational innovation is developed and implemented if necessary in a way that ensures the quality and integrity of the accreditations, while providing students with the possibility of enriching their curricular characteristics and therefore greater competitiveness in the workplace. We remain at your disposal for any clarification in this regard that you need, and in the meantime we greet you very kindly."How to Spot a Degree Mill:A degree mill is a fake university that sells college degrees and transcripts instead of the college experience. They are scam colleges that make fake diplomas to anyone who pays the requested "tuition." They often promise fast college degrees based on "life experience."The institution is not accreditedDegree mills love to use official sounding terms to impress potential students. The terms they use sound good but mean very little. The terms to look out for are "authenticated, verifiable, licensed, internationally approved, notarized, recognized by the Pope and accredited by UNESCOThe institution is accredited but not by an agency recognized by the Council of Higher Education Accreditation or the US department of educationAdmission criteria is solely based on the possession of a credit card. When academic recored, grade point average and test scores are irrelevant, it is not a real institution of higher learning. The potential student is offered a degree based on a "review" of work experience and a faxed resume. Most degree mills offer what is called experience degrees. This is credit for career experience is valid option at many universities for adult students. The process of evaluating work experience for college credit is complicated. No valid distance learning college int eh US will award a graduate degree solely based on work experience. The applicant is promised a degree in exchange of a lump sum. For an undergraduate degree it is 300-2,000. For a graduate degree it is up to 3.000. Colleges normally charge per credit hour. The applicant is promised a degree within 30 days of application, regardless of status. The university has multiple complaints on file. Your online "admission counselor" assures the student that international online universities can't be accredited in the United States by CHEA recognized agencies. This is false. The school's website either lists no faculty or lists faculty who have attended schools accredited by fake agencies. The university offers online degrees for only US citizens but is located in a different country. Pseudoscience ActivitiesHe previously worked at a research institute in Switzerland until it closed down in February 2020, according to Psiram, an internet encyclopedia that documents pseudoscience and conspiracy theories. The institution's website had been deleted. Its business registration had its mission: "Research and development of biophysical, pharmaceutical and diagnostic products and new technologies."Kalcker was involved with a Swiss non profit association called Swiss Association for Natural Scientific Biophysics that states on its website that it "seeks to appeal to people who are interested in the topic of biophysical medicine and who would like to take the responsibility for their health into their own hands." A large portion of blog posts on the website are written by Kalcker and promote his work. The membership section of Kalcker's website links to the association's signup page. Kalcker has written two books. "Forbidden Health - Incurable was Yesterday" and "CDS/MMS Healing is Possible."He has three patents. One is for an invention of "solution of chlorine dioxide adapted as a solution for rectal intestinal lavage" as an internal rinse. No Longer on Research GateAs of March of 2019, Andreas Kalcker's Research Gate Account has been deleted. The wayback machine link to his bogus studies is here. screen shot of Kalcker's Research Gate section of his website. It was deleted. Pseudoscience ClaimsThis section shows exactly what Kalcker promotes as fact, but it is not. Keep that in mind when reading this section. His claims are not credible and unsubstantiated. He claims MMS is a cure for numerous diseases by ingesting the dangerous bleach substance. He misrepresents findings of published studies. MMS or CDKalcker does not like to call chlorine dioxide MMS because he says that he uses 4% hydrochloric acid instead of 50% citric acid that the Genesis II church uses. Claims about MMS:1. It is extremely water soluble without creating further chemical bonds. It is a gas which dissolves completely in water. The molecule structure is similar to the water molecule. This is true. 2. Chlorine dioxide is one of the most well known disinfectants known to man because it is able to eliminate bacteria, fungi, viruses and small sized parasites across a wide pH range. It has been used for over 80 years to disinfect drinking water, and has not caused any problems all these years. It is widely used in industry, including food processing industry, for disinfecting purposes. It is used to bleac paper and silk as it does not attack the material, but in extremely high concentration levels, a concentration that had nothing to do with the typical ingested dose of taking a few milligrams orally. 3. CDS is only pure water-guided gas, which pH neutral and has many advantages. Its main advantage is the even in high doses it usually does not have side effects of MMS and is explained in detail in his book. The molecule is similar to water but not the same. Hydrogen peroxide is similar to water too. Water is h20 and hydrogen peroxide is h202. No one is buying hydrogen peroxide to drink instead of water. This follows the same logic that Kalcker is trying to pull over on people. Claim about using MMS as treatments:"Please note, our results are only assessments of experimental research. They do not constitute any form of advice or prescription. It is not a recommendation to anyone …. for any specific condition or disease.Right now ClO² is evaluated many treatments for different types of disease because sickness is commonly based on the lack of energy . The simple fact that chlorine dioxide provides molecular Bio available oxygen in the interstitial fluid and blood, induces better combustion of nutrients enhancing overall energy, which have been demonstrated in venous blood gases scientifically.If you are interested in knowing the results of experimental treatments please access the members section."AutismKalcker quotes Wikipedia:"Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired social interaction, verbal and non verbal communication, and restricted and repetitive behavior . . . While autism is highly heritable, researchers suspect both environmental and genetic factors as causes. Controversies surround other proposed environmental cause. For example, the vaccine hypotheses, which has been disproven . . . there is no cure. "As most of this information is true, Wikipedia is not a quality source. Each article can be edited by anyone. Because of this simple fact, no one should be using Wikipedia as a source for any research. "AS THE TRUTH IS ANOTHER,1. It does not have its origin in the brain but in the enteric system usually induced by VACCINES (click here to see Video in English)2. I could not be of genetic cause, genetics does not change in 40 years from 1:10,000 to 1:50!3. The theory of oxidative stress is false and therefore everything based on it. (Mitohormesis) (Oxidative shielding)4. Normal “intestinal mucosa” does not produce eggs, ammonia or amphetamines, more research is needed.5. Vaccine Immunosuppression facilitates proliferation of toxin-producing parasites and disbiosis.6. more than 235 children cured ,including severe autism with my anthelmintic protocol and CDAutism is not permanent at all."This list of "truths" only supports the belief that autism is caused by parasites. Kalcker developed a protocol with Miriam Carrasco Maceda for "deworming." He says it deworms, reduces inflammation and detoxifies with the same protocols as Kerri Rivera. Kerri Rivera had her clinic in Mexico. Each case was evaluated with the ATEC score, which was developed by Autism Research Institute. VaccinesThis page on his website he has the quote "Is Wikipedia becoming CNN?"He also has a Youtube Video that has been removed due to quackery. Kalcker also has a video with Andrew Wakefield on this page. This should say all it needs to say. "Vaccinated die less . . . . so its better to be vaccinated?"There is not one coherent thought on this page at all. Autism Recovery Evidence. There is not any evidence on this page. There are many photos with Kalcker holding up a poster with photos of kids. No clear evidence at all. "Here is some evidence of recovery with incredible results thanks To Kerri Rivera.To date are more than 235 children recovered with previous and subsequent analysis of ATECThe 2 women who are with me are the mothers of children in each poster.I’m not saying here that all children recovering from this illness, even if autism is considered unrecoverable, I can state that virtually all kids improve through specific treatment with Diet; classic antiparasitic drugs, plants and chlorine dioxide for enemas.I am aware that some critics try again seek lie or my personal benefit. Has anyone noticed that critics insist only economic benefit? For my personal benefit is personal satisfaction of having done the right thing because I did not charge anything in autism till now it costed me a lot of money. When science becomes an almost religious belief is not allowed to change or the more compelling arguments. Some irrational critics do not realize that their actions can prevent children recover and are responsible , though they do not feel that way because they believe in his learned doctrine book without experiencing anything, using all means of defamation and even lies to achieve your goal. This is not science, this is sad … so I put here some photos with the children concerned and their numbers ATEC clearly showing recovery."Important Universal Laws according to KalckerThe law of causes and effects (always plural)Love=Resonance, being the biggest force existingEvery living being is opportunisticThe only constant in the universe is changeAll force creates a counter force (duh, that called inertia.)Every order is disrupts itself and every disorder organize itself Natural BiophysicsKalcker, the man who has a fake doctoral degree, is explaining Natural biophysics:"As much as we distinguish in allopathic medicine medicine and natural medicine, I would also like to define it in the field of biophysics, a field little explored in reality, there is not only the common cell biophysics, but also the “natural biophysics” which is the search for the intrinsic logic of nature and mechanisms of it specifically in the field of health.This is opening up new horizons for developing treatment of degenerative and chronic diseases, which to date have no solution except pharmaceutical palliatives that lead to long term intoxication of the patient. Natural biophysics always tries to explain through pure logic since nature always is. An inconsistency or anomaly is usually the result of previous erroneous axioms, because nature uses the same building blocks and with the same formula in all its natural process.The basic principles should always be simple and science is increasingly difficult getting lost in details without knowing irrefutably the bases. There are many doctorates in physics but none can explain even the most basic things like why gravity or a magnet works. There are many professors and doctorates in medicine but no one knows why a body gets sick with certain pathogens and other not, in the official dictionary of diseases, the renowned Merck Manual®, most chronical diseases are of “unknown origin.” We must seriously ask ourselves what kind of mainstream medicine is this…?In order to advance we have to do the right question. The key question therefore is: What is the lowest common denominator of all diseases?"What is the opposite of natural biophysics? Unnatural biophysics? If it was unnatural, it would not have the prefix bio-. He says that chlorine dioxide in all forms provides oxygen to the intestinal tissue and to all the body fluids, activating the mitocondria, which turn generate more energy. This energy allows the body to recover and heal from most diseases. Oxygen is essential and the free radical concept, as it has been promoted in the past, is erroneous. The human body is not a petri dish in the lab. Everything interacts with everything else. THIS IS SCIENTIFICALLY INACCURATE!!!The immune system is much more complicated. Look here for a full explanation:https://kidshealth.org/en/parents/immune.htmlStructured WaterKalcker claims:"Regular tap water’s composition is H2O, while the fourth phase’s is in fact H3O2. The latter has more viscosity, is more organized and more alkaline than regular water. Besides, its optical properties are different since structured water’s refraction index is at least 10% higher than that of common water increasing flow of Biophotons.This fourth phase structured water is also known as EZ, which stands for Exclusion Zone. What this water is able to exclude are small molecules, such as toxins and pathogens and this occurs in nature in rainwater or deep sourced water and in all living cells.This water has a negative charge and therefore, all cellular water has a negative charge."Science says: What Kalcker is saying is misrepresenting a valid research study. The fourth phase of water is the boiling point. This EZ water is actually ionized water. Nothing more, nothing less. A water ionizer, requires electricity. The ionizer increases the pH of the water.The ionizer does not work with deionized or distilled water!The ionizer does not produce measurable oxygen gas (a smoldering splint will not relight in the vicinity)The device contains an electrolysis cell and an ion exchange resin. Kalcker puts up a front of being scientific but investigating in his claims, he is not scientific at all. He can dupe the average uneducated person about healthcare. He is very dangerous and needs to be stopped.

The Mooncup: A Tool to Measure Menstrual Bleeding Loss Volume

Abstract

Background: The mooncup is not a tool habitually used for quantifying the volume of menstrual blood loss.

Objective: The aims of the study were to explore mooncup management by Spanish women and estimate the volume of menstrual blood loss.

Method: This is a comparative observational study involving 94 healthy women who participated voluntarily following a mass invitation on Face book. This is an accidental, non-probability sampling technique. The participants completed an online questionnaire drafted using the following program: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/, which included socio-demographic and mooncup use factors, with the aim of estimating menstrual volume. Depending on individual hygiene habits the cup was emptied when full, half-full or only stained.

Result: Overall, a mean figure of 3,25 cups/woman/day were emptied (SD 1.77, CI 95%, 2.88-3.61). The average volume per woman and menstruation was 173cc (SD 139.08, CI 95%, 144.24-202.17). In 75% of cases this figure was >88 with a clot expulsion rate of 70%. Bleeding lasted for an average of 4.86 days (SD 1.05, CI 95% 4.62-5.10).

Conclusion and recommendation: The mooncup is a new method for determining menstrual blood volume. It has enabled us to establish that menstrual bleeding in 75% of the sample was over 80cc (average 173cc), which represents a risk of High Menstrual Bleeding, even in women with no known gynecological disease. More extensive population studies are needed to corroborate these findings and investigate their causes.

Introduction

Background

The mooncup is not a tool used for quantifying menstrual volume, but, rather, a menstrual hygiene product which is increasingly used and Spain is no exception to this trend. A literature review enabled us to identify comparative studies regarding the advantages of mooncup use in comparison to sanitary pads and tampons (degree of comfort, user satisfaction etc), but authors have not focused on designing studies aiming to quantify menstrual volume in healthy mooncup users [13]. The advantages of the mooncup, in this sense, are to allow direct evaluation of volume, compared with the Pictorial Blood Assessment Chart (PBAC), which is based on the absorption capacity of sanitary pads and tampons [4]. Some studies suggest that the use of mooncups amongst women in developing countries or with limited economic resources should be promoted as it is an economical, environment-friendly product, valid for management of menstruation [3]. Classical studies on this issue led the FIGO (2011) to establish a basic classification to determine whether menstrual bleeding was within normal parameters or not. According to these indications it should not exceed 80cc expelled in 4.5 - 8 days of bleeding [5-8], but in daily clinical practice it sometimes proves difficult to measure menstrual flow in these terms.

Objectives

The objective of this study is to estimate the volume of menstrual bleeding in a sample of Spanish mooncup users.

Go to

Methodology

To fulfill our objective an observational case-comparison study was designed. An accidental, non-probability sampling technique was applied involving an appeal and mass recruitment of mooncup users through Facebook. The case collection period lasted from 1stJanuary until 31st May 2015. The users interested in participating contacted the researcher and were given information privately about inclusion criteria and conditions for participation. Once recruitment was confirmed, participants received a hyperlink enabling them to access an online survey prepared by the following program https://docs.google.com/ spreadsheets/u/0. Participants were required to complete the survey during their next menstruation. The inclusion criteria were to be over eighteen, to have spontaneous menstrual cycles, no known gynecological diseases and no use of oestroprogestin- based products. Women not fulfilling these criteria were excluded from the study, as were postpartum women, lactating mothers and women who had recently experienced miscarriage or abortion. 94 mooncup users were finally recruited.

The independent variables included were age, parity, profession, place of residence, educational level, contraception, length of cycle, length of menstruation and type of mooncup used. The dependent variables were the size of the mooncup used, frequency with which it was emptied, amount of fluid when emptied and menstrual volume. Given the diverse nature of the 11 different types of mooncups used by the participants, the following criteria were used to classify them: light-flow cups (<20cc.), small cups (20-26cc.), large cups (27-33cc.) and “super” cups (>34cc.). In those cases in which the cups were emptied when only stained the criteria adopted was to consider the amount of menstrual fluid to be 2,5cc. In all cases in which cups were emptied when half full the volume was considered to be half the cup's total capacity. When the cups were totally full, menstrual volume was considered to be the full capacity as stated by the manufacturer.

All the data obtained from the variables were introduced in the SPSS®20.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) database. Descriptive analysis was performed using the mean, the median and the standard deviation [SD], confidence interval at 95% [CI95%], the number of cases [n] and the percentage [%]. The link between variables was determined using Pearson's linear correlation coefficient. The study protocol was approved on 28th May 2013 by the Commission of Ethics of San Cecilio University Hospital (Granada, Spain). Use of the hyperlink for access to the online survey indicated that users implicitly accepted the conditions of the study.

Results

A total of 135 women applied to participate in the study, but 30 were excluded as they failed to fulfill the inclusion criteria. 11 of those who were initially admitted did not subsequently fill in the online questionnaire. The study is therefore based on data from 94 women (70% participation). The average age of the sample was 33.21 years (SD 5.90, CI 95% 32-34.42). In 26% of cases participants held a postgraduate degree and 23% had a Bachelor's degree or other undergraduate university diploma. More than half of the sample, 52% (49 cases), had scientific or intellectual technical or professional careers. Place of residence varied widely amongst participants, although most of the participants recruited were from Spain's two largest cities, Madrid and Barcelona, with 15% of participants (14 cases) and 7% (7 participants) respectively. There were also participants from less densely populated areas of the country. With regard to menstrual history, 80% of the sample had menstrual cycles of 25-33 days with an average length of 4.86 bleeding days (SD 1.05, CI95% 4.62-5.10). As for contraceptive methods, 53% of participants were male condom users, 6% (6 cases) had a copper IUD, and 23% (22 cases) were using no contraceptive method at the time of the survey. 16% of participants were nulliparous (62 cases) and 34% (32 cases) had given birth at least once.

With regard to mooncup use habits, the study reported cups being emptied 1,354 times with an average of 14.4 cups emptied per woman per menstruation (SD 7.43, CI95% 12.88-15.93), which amounts to an average of 3.04 cups per woman per day (SD 1.43, CI95% 2.71-3.37). As far as content was concerned 28% of cups were totally full when emptied (mean 5.15, SD 3.70, CI95% 4.29-6.01), 44% were partially full (mean 6.40, SD 4.05, CI95% 5.57-7.23) and in 28% of cases cups were only stained (mean 4.32, SD 2.58, CI95% 3.77-4.87). Figure 1 reflects emptying habits for each day of menstruation. Based on the capacity of each of the mooncups used, it was possible to estimate that the mean volume of menstrual fluid per woman was 173.20cc (SD 139.08, CI95% 144.24-202.17) and that 75% of participants exceeded the 80cc level of MBL. Figure 2 presents the MBL distribution by age. Clot expulsion rate was 70%. In Table 1 the mean daily menstruation volume is presented. However, if we focus exclusively on the 75% of participants (N=70) who emptied the cup when it was totally full, the mean menstrual volume is 110.04 cc (SD 98.01, CI95% 86.67-133.41), and 47% of these participants exceeded 80cc MBL. The most widely used mooncups were the low-capacity light flow versions (37% cases), followed by large (35%) whilst small (21%) and "super” cups (3%) were the least used. In total, the mean capacity of all the emptied cups was 22.60cc (SD 7.28, C195% 21.08-24.11). Table 2 presents the number of times the participants emptied their cup during the first 5 days of menstruation.

Discussion

The use of the mooncup as a tool to estimate Menstrual Blood Loss (MBL) has enabled such estimations to be performed in an objective way and the results suggest that levels may double those considered to be normal or standard for a population of healthy women [5-11]. Until now, that calculation had been based on the PBAC and other, more complex analytical methods. Not all women use the same size of mooncup, so estimations may be slightly higher or lower than real amounts. However, bearing in mind the high number of nulli gravid participants in the study, the predominant trend was to use smaller mooncups, following the manufacturers' indications, which, to a certain extent, would seem to rule out gynecological disease as the cause of high menstrual bleeding. Moreover, frequency of emptying differed amongst the participants. Therefore, when participants indicated that the cup was half full or merely stained this may have led to differences between the estimated amount and the real amount of menstrual fluid lost. However, if we focus exclusively on the mooncups that were emptied when they were totally full, the menstrual volume figures are high. Furthermore, the fact that the emptying rate was estimated as being higher than 3 times per day leads us to believe that the MBL estimation is fairly accurate.

Regarding daily emptying frequency we have seen that the highest number of totally full cups corresponded to the second day of menstruation, in accordance with our previous findings and with the results of other authors, although it must be stressed that indirect estimation methods were used [4,12-14]. This leads us to believe that these new findings in this study are likely to be reasonably accurate. Some authors have asserted that women discard some 14 sanitary pads during menstruation [10]. Many women are alarmed by the perception that menstrual bleeding is accompanied by the expulsion of clots of different sizes. The prevalence of clot expulsion during menstrual bleeding and its frequency is approximately 55%, depending on age [12,15,16]. In our sample, up to 70% of participants perceived clot expulsion, to a greater extent on day 2 (52%), which is a much higher figure than that offered by other authors [4,17]. In summary, we have seen that MBL and clot expulsion rate in our sample could be double the figures described in literature on this subject.

Limitations

Our study may be considered to have certain biases, such as a sample composed of highly educated participants who were predominantly resident in large urban areas. This may have facilitated their access to information about the mooncup and meant that they had the resources and capacity to access online questionnaires. Women who were suffering from some gynecological condition were excluded from the study which means that we could not analyze the possible causes of HMB which, in any case, was not one of the study's objectives. Perhaps one of the study's strengths is that it offers a novel method for a clinical approach to the diagnosis of menstrual bleeding problems, unlike other previously used techniques.

Conclusions and Recommendations

Conclusion

In summary, the menstrual mooncup has facilitated realistic estimation of menstrual volume in healthy women, making it an easy and accessible tool for use in clinical practice.

Recommendation

It would be recommendable to design more extensive population studies that would allow us to determine whether MBL has currently increased in healthy women.
