A video game that appeared on Steam Store, a platform with 100 million users is being
called messed up and disgusting, and people aren't wrong. I'm going to tell you everything
you need to know, here for you on IO. Welcome back to inform overload, I'm charlotte
dobre. I'm going to tell you about a game called
Active s, the video game that allows people to play as a school s where the purpose is
to go around s school mates and teachers. It allows you to walk around school hallways
with a k, g and automatic w. You earn points for s civillians and cops. Apparently you
can also play the game as a member of the swat team, but there was a promise that if
you played as the school s, you could s quote, as many civillians as possible. Parents of
the Parkland s survivors have called the game disgusting and horrific. The Parkland school
s resulted in 17 staff and students being s.
A father who lost his 14 year old daughter alaina at parkland said on facebook that the
game was trying to make money off the glamorization of tradgedies.
Another parent who also lost a daughter in the s said that Active s is one of the worst
games out there. A change dot org petition to remove the game
had more than 180 thousand signatures on it. The game was supposed to be released on june
6 company that runs Steam Store, valve, has removed the game. The developer that made
the game is called Revived Games, published by ACID. It is supposedly based in Moscow.
The game had a disclaimer, saying, revived games believes v and inappropriate actions
belong in video games and not in the real world and insists that in no event should
anyone attempt to recreate a and mimic any of the actions, events or situations occurring
in the game. Valve has since banned the developer, the
publisher and said that the person who made the game, a person named Ata Berdiyev, was
a troll. He has a history of being removed by valve, he was last removed last fall when
he was operating under the names Interactive and Elusive team
This goes without saying but, School s are not a game, they are a real and serious problem
that is plaguing the US school system. Alright guys, lets lighten the mood with some comment
replies. Pirabeiraba boy – come on people school
ss happen all the time in the us. Give guns to the children in schools. They can protect
themselves during a school s. GOOD ONE. Clone blaster, first like and comment, can
I have a potato. Sure you can, here you go. Be Frank – I like how charlotte says against.

BH200 Module 4 video - Duration: 3:44.
Hi everyone, welcome to Module 4.
This video will be a little shorter than the previous ones.
The objectives for this module are for you to examine various complementary and alternative
therapy options, explore the scientific basis for each, consider experimenting with the
practice of a select few self-care measures, and identify potential clinical applications
of each for various health conditions.
Chapter 21 discusses various alternative medical systems.
To start, I think it is really important for us to revisit the terms we discussed in Module
1 because I know this can be a little confusing.
So, from the point of view of a patient who lives in the United States, they have a choice
of either using Western Medicine, such as pharmaceuticals, chemotherapy, radiation,
surgery etc, OR they can substitute that system of care with an alternative system of care,
such as Traditional Chinese Medicine or acupuncture or Homeopathy, etc.
Alternative is another word for substitute.
So let's go back to one of the very first slides from this class.
When we are talking about integrative medicine, we are talking about mixing it up like choosing
some western medical treatments and some other forms of treatment.
So let's say that a person really believes in the power of stimulating energy channels,
and so they have decided to do acupuncture.
Acupuncture is an option found in the Traditional Chinese Medicine system.
If the person continues taking their pain medication that they got from their Western
doctor, plus they are getting acupuncture, they are integrating items from both the Western
System and the Traditional Chinese Medicine system.
In this scenario, the acupuncture is complementing their Western Medicine.
Complementary means "adding to" or balancing out or "pairing with".
But if the person chose to substitute their pain medication with acupuncture, then they
have decided that the acupuncture is an alternative to the pain medication so they are then using
an alternative system.
If this isn't making sense to you please do not hesitate to reach out to me for further
clarification!
So Chapter 21 is all about alternative medical systems of care which are systems of care
that fall outside of western medicine.
And again, when a person in the United States and chooses to use these instead of western medicine,
then it is called an alternative medical system.
Chapter 26 is about Manipulative and Body-based methods.
These are all therapies that involve the practitioner using his or her hands to manipulate the patients'
body in order to focus on bones, joints, soft tissue, and circulatory and lymphatic systems.
After reading Chapters 21 and 26 I want you to pick one of these chapters to read, either
Chapter 22, chapter 23, or chapter 24 Choose whichever one you find most interesting.
Your assignment for the week will be slightly different based on which chapter you choose.
Also, instead of a traditional quiz this week you will simply respond to two of your classmate's
discussion posts from last week.
Instructions for this post can be found in Module 4 and the ten points for this post
will show up as "Quiz 4" in D2L.
If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I hope you all have a wonderful week!

BH200 Module 3 video - Duration: 9:35.
Hello again, and welcome to Module 3 which covers Emotions and Spirituality, Emotions
in Healthcare, and Spirituality and Health.
The objectives for this module are for you to be able to describe the body as an energy
system, name and describe at least two energy therapies and how they promote wellbeing,
and describe how one's spiritual and religious beliefs can impact one's health.
Chapter 27 is all about energy therapies.
Albert Einstein stated: "Everything is energy and that's all there is to it".
You can see on the quote that he had more to say, but the meaning of the rest of the
quote is outside the scope of this class.
Let's just focus on the first sentence of this quote: Everything is energy.
Einstein published his famous equation, E=mc2 in 1905, where E is energy, m is mass, and
c is the speed of light in a vacuum.
Since then, E=mc2 has become one of the most famous equations in the world.
Even people with no background in physics have at least heard of the equation.
This equation has had a HUGE influence on the world we live in.
It basically means that energy and mass can be converted to each other.
Another way of saying it is that anything that has mass has energy stored in it.
So Einstein said "Everything is energy".
Did he really mean everything?
Einstein, one of the greatest science minds ever to live on the planet would have said
– yes, everything – the chair you are sitting on has mass, so it is energetic, the
house you are living in has mass, so it is energetic, the food you ate in your last meal
is energetic; the air you are breathing is energetic.
YOUR BODY is energetic.
So what is energy?
There are many forms of energy: thermal, electrical, chemical, nuclear, and more.
Energy can be neither created nor destroyed, it can only take a different form.
For example, an automobile engine changes chemical energy of fuel to mechanical and
heat energy.
A tree changes radiant energy to chemical energy, etc.
Energy is transferred between systems giving power to one system while taking it away from
another.
So why is this important to us, people studying holistic health?
Because the mass of your body IS energetic!
This is really no surprise to cardiologists who use EKG electrocardiography to detect
heart rhythm.
The heart is the strongest source of electricity in the body.
The EEG detects electrical signals from the brain, the next strongest source of electricity
in the body.
But all parts of the body produce electrical fields.
All parts of the electrical body are communicating with all other parts of the electrical body,
all the time.
Imagine the electric wires in your house.
Imagine that when the wires are in good working order, the energy travels through them to
the outlet, to the plug in the outlet, to your computer and lets the computer have power
to operate.
Then, during a thunderstorm, if a bolt of lightning hits the power cords, an excess
amount of energy can overload the wiring with a power surge and fry the electrical components
in your computer.
Once the wiring in your home is fried, the electricity cannot effectively move through
it.
Now, instead of the computer wiring think of the energy in your body, and instead of
lightning think of anger.
What if you were to hold on to the energy of anger for days/weeks/months/years?
What if that energy of anger prevents the restorative life energy from moving effectively
through your body?
Might illness result?
Energy therapies are a variety of techniques that try to help restore balance to the electrical
system of your body.
You will read more about them in Chapter 27.
If you read much about energy therapies, you are likely to encounter 2 terms that you do
not encounter in Western Medicine – Meridians and Chakras.
Meridians are invisible channels through which Chinese healers have said the body's vital
life force flows.
Imagine a garden hose that is kinked, not allowing water to flow through it.
It needs to get unkinked so water can flow again.
If the meridians get "kinked" so to speak and healing energy is not allowed to flow
through the body, acupuncture is "unkinking" the channels so the healing energy can flow
once again.
The chakras are described as circular energy "centers" in the body, found near the heart,
abdomen, cranium and at other points in the body.
So meridians are like an energy transportation system and the chakras are like energy stations.
I have uploaded three articles about healing energy that I would like for you to read.
The first one is a 12-page article from the Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies
called "What is healing energy".
There is a lot of information in the article and some of it is very confusing, so please
don't feel overwhelmed, but do try to at least skim it.
The second article is a 2-page article is called Unique Healing Energy Class Offered
at West Virginia State University.
This article talks about a class in Healing Energy that is being offered at a university
in West Virginia.
The third article is a 3-page article called "the Science of Energy Healing" which
talks about how to be an informed consumer in a field that is sometimes viewed as quackery
by people in the mainstream.
In Chapter 9 you will read about spirituality.
One thing I want to highlight from this chapter is the difference between spirituality and
religion as they are definitely not the same thing.
Spirituality is a broad term used to describe a connection or belief in something outside
of oneself.
Religion is a specific belief system and follows a certain predetermined path.
Religion certainly is a part of many people's spirituality, but many people are spiritual
without practicing religion.
A fourth and final article I would like for you to read is Spiritual Encounters in Medical
Practice, by Dr. David Hibbard from Subtle Energies and Energy Medicine article.
Though it is 14 pages, it is really an interesting and fast read.
You will be asked in the assignment about the questions that this medical doctor asks
of his patients and why.
I'll give you a hint now – he asks about their spiritual background because there are
a number of medical studies that show that people who have a faith or a spiritual practice
(and it doesn't make any difference what that Faith is) or who believe in a Higher Power
or who pray or who are prayed for tend to do better, health-wise, than people who do
not.
But still, and I really want to emphasize this point, it is never ok to try to force
another person, especially your patient, even a patient who is dying, into believing the
way we believe.
It is every individual's right to choose what they believe, and it is a form of abuse,
no matter how good you might think your intentions are, to force another to listen to your own
beliefs.
It is ok to ask whether they would like a prayer, but it is never ok to force one on
them.
Another article you'll find in D2L talks about how people who find meaning in helping
others tend to feel better.
In the 2017 May-June issue of the magazine, "Spirituality and Health", there is an
article called "Why Worry?
Find Meaning".
Again, I have uploaded this article, but I do not expect you to read it.
I will give you the highlights here: People often think that getting things or
having things is what makes us happy, and it does.
Having enough money to buy the things we want, being able to eat the things we want, being
able to do the things we want, like vacations in exotic places, WILL make us happy in the
short term.
But over a lifetime, those who find it meaningful to give to others are more content.
I think of happiness as a fleeting, short term feeling.
It is pleasant, yes, but having short term feelings of happiness does not necessarily
make for an overall "happy" life.
However, a "meaningful" life is one that is fulfilling and many people lead meaningful
lives when they give to others - help cheer someone up, buy someone a gift, be a good
friend.
I have added a handout to D2L with several websites where you can find more information
about energy therapies and related topics, in case you are interested.
You certainly are not expected to visit all of the websites listed there.
But I do hope that throughout this class you are starting to build a list of websites for
yourself for future reference.
So, again, this module is heavy on the reading, which will take some time.
But the assignment should not take very much time to complete.
But to do well on the assignment, you will need to have a lot of the background information
that is found in the readings.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I hope you all have a wonderful week!

BH200 Module 2 video - Duration: 9:07.
Hi everyone, welcome to Module 2, which covers Interventions in Holistic, Integrated Health
Care, and The Mind-Body Connection.
In this module, we really start exploring, from a holistic viewpoint, why people get
sick and what they can do to have more control over staying well.
These are foundational questions that you will be asked to ponder in this class.
I am certainly not asking you to agree with everything that is presented in this class.
I am, however, asking you to have an open mind and critically think about what is being
presented and come to your own conclusion for yourself what YOUR answers are.
Many of the discussion questions don't have a right or wrong answer but I will ask you
to fully explain why you arrived at your answer.
Why do we get sick?
A conventional, Western view has been that something is causing an illness.
Bacteria is causing an infection or a virus is causing a flu, or cancer cells are growing
and multiplying out of control until they take over good cells to the point of the good
cells not being able to function correctly.
And that to stay well, we have to kill the germs, kill the virus, or remove the cancer
cells with surgery or kill them with chemotherapy or radiation.
However, what if the bacteria, the virus, or the cancer cells were not the whole problem?
What if they are not the primary reason we get sick?
Have you noticed that during flu season, everyone in the school, or the workplace, or the home
can be exposed to the same germs, but only some of them get sick?
Why is that?
Perhaps part of the answer lies in boosting the immune system.
In other words, perhaps part of the answer about staying well lies in the balance found
in the terrain of the body.
Is it possible that whether or not we get sick is NOT dependent only on the germs , but
also dependent on whether the body has a terrain of fertile ground in which illness can grow?
Let's use hydrangeas as a tool to understand this.
Hydrangeas can be blue, pink or purple.
The exact same plant will be one of those three colors depending on the soil in which
it is planted.
For blue flowers, the hydrangeas need to be grown in acidic soil with a pH of 5.5 and
lower.
For pink flowers, the plants need neutral to alkaline soils with a pH of 6.5 and higher.
For purple flowers, or a mix of blue and pink flowers on the same plant, the pH of the soil
must be between 5.5 and 6.5.
The terrain is more important than the seed in order to determine the outcome of the growth.
Chapter 5 is about the immune system.
Have you heard of Louis Pasteur?
He is commonly known as the father of microbiology.
His work supported 'the germ theory of disease.
The germ theory states that diseases are caused by microorganisms.
These small organisms, too small to see without magnification, can invade our bodies and if
they grow and reproduce within our bodies, we can end up with illness.
In other words, the determining factor of whether we get sick is the germs, regardless
of the terrain of the body the germs invade.
Most of western medicine has been based on this theory.
In contrast, another scientist, Claude Bernard, was certain that the terrain of the body was
more important than the germ.
In other words, it is not the presence of the germ that can make a person sick, it is
whether the terrain of the body allows the germ to grow into illness.
Most of Eastern medicine is built on this premise.
On page 83, which is the first page of Chapter 5, you will find this quote from Louis Pasteur.
As I mentioned, for most of his career he supported the germ theory.
But supposedly on his deathbed he said, "Bernard was right.
The germ is nothing, the terrain is everything".
The meaning behind this quote is extremely important to everything else we will be covering
in this class.
And like I said earlier, I am really not asking you to agree with everything that is presented
in this class.
But I am asking you to have an open mind and critically think about what is being presented
and come to your own conclusion for yourself what your answers are.
Pierre Jacques Antoine Béchamp was a French scientist engaged in a bitter rivalry with
Louis Pasteur.
Please watch this 4-minute video (you can find the link in D2L) which describes the
differences between the theories of these two scientists.
Pause the youtube video at 3 minutes 35 seconds to look closely at the comparison chart between
the two scientists' theories.
Remember that during most of his career, Louis Pasteur supported the germ theory.
Ok, so let's move on to an overview of Chapter 6 which focuses on stress.
There are many definitions for stress.
Your book uses this one: "A perception that the demands of the environment exceed our
coping skills".
It has 3 parts.
Let's start with the two parts of demands of the environment (or we can call them stressors)
and coping skills.
Remember the old fashioned weighing scales?
In order for it to be balanced, the amount of weight on each side of it had to be equal.
So let's assume that what we are trying to balance is on one side – the number of
stressors you have – work, school, health, relationships, finances.
And the other side, you hope you have at least enough coping skills to balance out the stressors.
But the 3rd component is really the most powerful component and that's the perception of the
situation.
Let's take having a flat tire as an example.
The flat tire is the stressor.
Having the skill to change the flat tire is the coping skill.
But let's say we have two people, side by side, both with a flat tire and both with
the skill to change the flat tire.
One might have the perception that this stinks.
This should NOT have happened.
Life is so unfair.
Why do these things always happen to me?
That person is going to experience a LOT more stress than the person who has the perception
that "it is what it is – it happens" so what's my next step?
The perception of the environment is the key component that determines how much stress
the person experiences.
Living in today's culture can be stressful, especially when you are a student or when
you are a patient with a chronic illness.
Reducing stress can boost the immune system.
So if we want to reduce stress, how do we do it?
There are many answers, which are covered in chapter 6. in my opinion, the answers fall
into 3 broad categories – reduce the demands of the environment (for example take fewer
classes each semester) or 2) increase coping skills - such as add exercise or meditation
or time management to your daily routine or 3) change your perception of how you are thinking
about your situation.
It is worth learning how to ease our perception of stress.
If we live in a continued state of stress, it can take a toll on the physical body.
There are many stress-reduction techniques mentioned in Chapter 6 such as exercise, progressive
muscle relaxation, meditation, and imagery.
Read chapter 6 to learn more about stress and ways to reduce it and read Chapter 25
to learn about mind-body therapies.
So in summary, the purpose of this module is to build a foundational understanding,
from a holistic perspective, of the interplay between the immune system (which you will
read about in chapter 5), stress (which you will read about in chapter 6) and mind-body
therapies, which you will read about in chapter 25.
Holistic health leans toward the terrain view.
In order to promote wellness, it is important to boost the immune system so that the terrain
of the body is balanced.
It is important to manage stress, so that uncontrolled stress does not compromise the
terrain of the immune system.
And that there are some mind-body therapies which help to reduce stress and boost the
immune system, thus promoting wellness.
So please read these chapters, then do the quiz and the assignment.
I hope you have a great week!

BH200 Module 6 video - Duration: 1:50.
Hello again and welcome to Module 6.
This week we're going to talk about Attitudes, Perceptions, and Health.
You will be reading Chapter 13 which discusses symptoms, and Chapter 14 which covers the
partnership between clients and healthcare practitioners.
So, as I mentioned, chapter 13 discusses symptoms and the various purposes for symptoms.
So, symptoms are warning signs that can indicate there's a problem or they can provide feedback
for people to pay attention to the way they are living.
For example, when we are hungry we know we need to eat, or when we feel pain from touching
a hot surface we know to pull our hand away.
Symptoms can also serve a role in the healing process such as how coughing helps rid the
lungs of mucus.
Paying attention to these warning signs helps us move toward health and healing.
Chapter 14 talks about the partnership between clients or patients and their healthcare providers.
It is important that both parties take an active role in the patient's care and that
there is mutual respect between the parties.
Chapter 14 goes into detail about what factors to consider when choosing a healthcare practitioner,
what information should be provided, what questions should be asked, etc.
So please read through chapter 14 carefully and let me know if you have any questions.
Once again this is the timeline for the final project.
Part 1 is due this coming Sunday night, July 8, by 11:59pm.
You just need to submit a paragraph explaining your proposed topic and resources.
More detailed instructions can be found in the Final Project module.
I hope everyone has a great week!
