Benefits of Sprayable Sleep Products

Mass market demand is increasing over products like sprayble melatonin, and where to buy sprayable sleep products in the market as this curated blog excerpt shows:  

Looking for a support group for the sleep deprived? According to statistics, you’re not alone. Nearly two-thirds of American are in the same group as you are on any given night.

Whether it’s occasional sleeplessness or a complete insomniac who struggles on a nightly basis to sleep, it’s a common issue. Still. others complain that they wake up too early and can’t fall back to sleep.

Others complain that they can’t let go of the days events. They keep replaying things over and over in their heads like a mental ping pong game.

Add to these staggering statistics that at least half of all of the respondents to this query don’t feel refreshed when they wake up in the morning and you have a nation of sleep-deprived people who are struggling to make it through the day without a nap.

A good night’s sleep is vital to good health. The body needs plenty of rest to rejuvenate. Without a good night’s sleep, people begin to lag either late morning or early afternoon.

To get this sleep, people are turning to a variety of sleep aids. Whether a prescription medication or something over the counter, many American rely on these to get a good nights sleep.

One sleep aid that is frequently overlooked is melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone that regulates the body for sleep and being awake.

This hormone can be purchased over the counter in tablet form, spray form, and an elixir. The spray form is an ideal way to go when choosing this as the method to induce sleep.

Many people prefer the spray form as it is an easy way to take the melatonin. Simply spray underneath of the tongue or inside of the cheek about half an hour before bedtime. This will help to induce sleep and allow the body to wind down to a restful night’s sleep.

Touro Celebrates Graduate School of Social Work Programs

From a release on a school's successful social work programs leading to a graduate degree in social work, including guidance on how long does it take to become a social worker, etc:

New York, N.Y. – The Touro Graduate School of Social Work celebrated the Class of 2017 for their triumphs, challenges, academic achievements and outstanding community service at an annual Academic Recognition Program infused with warmth, humor and inspiration. Held at the 92nd Street Y, the auspicious event brought together more than 400 individuals, including students, faculty, staff, family members and other well-wishers.

The occasion also served as an unexpected kickoff for the Dean Steven Huberman Leadership Award for Student Scholarships, named after the school’s founding and current dean. Presenting a personal check for $2,500, and pledging an additional $2,500 in matching funds, Touro College and University System Provost Patricia Salkin, J.D. said she and her husband, Howard, were starting the fund as a “token of appreciation for Dean Huberman’s unswerving leadership.”

Visibly moved and without a moment’s hesitation, Dr. Huberman said that he and his family would also contribute $2,500 to the fund, and then others present at the gathering spontaneously began making donations to the social work scholarship fund.

Provost Salkin received the Touro National Outstanding Social Work Leadership Award at the event to mark her years as a foremost legal scholar and advocate for positive social change. Prior to assuming the position of provost for the Graduate and Professional Division in March 2016, Salkin served as dean of Touro’s Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center.

In welcoming the gathering, Dr. Huberman noted that the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.– “the time is always right to do what is right” – rang true for the graduates and the profession they were about to join.  And in quoting poet John Donne – “no man is an island” – Dr. Huberman credited faculty, staff and family members for supporting the students in their quest to “reach this milestone.”

Judge of Sound Libertarian Beliefs Stepping Down

From a recent report, explaining libertarian beliefs on the retiring Brown. The application of libertarian philosophy expressed by the John Locke Foundation, the Libertarian Party or the judge may or may not universally represent what is a libertarian position on the topic for all adherents.

Janice Rogers Brown—one of my favorite federal judges—will retire next month from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Damon Root has called her, “The most libertarian federal judge in America,” and that may well be true. In a speech to the Federalist Society, in which she quoted both Ayn Rand and Milton Friedman, Judge Brown observed that:

Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates, and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible.

Such frankly expressed views won Judge Brown many enemies. Her nomination to the D.C. Circuit (by George W. Bush) was held up for years by Senate Democrats, including a newly elected senator from Illinois named Barak Obama. In one of his first speeches on the floor of the Senate, Obama said he opposed Judge Brown’s nomination “in the strongest terms”:

Justice Brown believes … that the New Deal, which helped save our country and get it back on its feet after the Great Depression, was a triumph of our very own “Socialist revolution.” … She equates even the most modest efforts to level life’s playing field with somehow inhibiting our liberty. …

She believes the Supreme Court should be able to overturn minimum wage laws. She thinks we should live in a country where the Federal Government cannot enforce the most basic regulations of transparency in our security markets, that we cannot maintain regulations that ensure our food is safe and the drugs that are sold to us have been tested. … [A]ccording to Justice Brown, … local governments or municipalities cannot enforce basic zoning regulations that relieve traffic, no matter how much damage it may be doing a particular community. …

It would be one thing if these opinions were confined to her political speeches. The fact is she has carried them over into her judicial decision making.

Symantec to Acquire Fireglass to Provide Additional Support for Norton

Users desiring more PC security will benefit from the additional support for Norton and online PC help due to Symantec's new acquisitions, according to its release. Companies providing online PC support to for users to renew Norton, install McAfee antivirus support or even to download McAfee antivirus will also become more valuable as a result of these developments:

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – July 6, 2017 – Symantec (NASDAQ: SYMC), the world’s leading cyber security company, today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Israel-based Fireglass, the leading agentless isolation solution that eliminates ransomware, malware and phishing threats in real-time by preventing potentially harmful content from ever reaching user endpoints or the corporate network. With this acquisition, Symantec further strengthens its Integrated Cyber Defense Platform and dramatically extends the Company’s leadership in Secure Web Gateway and Email protection delivered both on premises and in the cloud.

Fireglass’ innovative approach to browser isolation substantially reduces the attack surface, strengthening an enterprise’s security posture and as a result, significantly reduces the burden on the Company’s security operation center (SOC) and IT help desk. Users are protected regardless of the links they click or the uncategorized websites they visit, as all potentially harmful website and email content and attachments are executed within a fully protected and separate environment, eliminating the most common infiltration points for ransomware, exploits and malware. Delivered as a cloud service, on premises, or in a hybrid model, Fireglass provides a transparent and worry-free end user experience, with customers reporting a dramatic reduction in problem tickets and the resulting workload of the security team.

Greg Clark, Symantec CEO said, “Integrating Fireglass’ isolation technology with Symantec’s existing endpoint, email and secure web gateway solutions could reduce security events by as much as 70 percent, while virtually eliminating advanced threats spread by web browsing or email content. Isolation will become a core component in the design of cyber defense architectures for the cloud generation who face the reality of an encrypted Internet and the crisis inherent in email and web-delivered attacks. The ability for the security team to take an aggressive stance on unknown websites and questionable attachments without causing chaos for a company’s users and IT help desk is now a reality. Isolation is a key element of securing the cloud generation and is even a productivity gain for both the end user and security operations center.”

“The pairing of browser isolation with Symantec’s proxy and endpoint capabilities forms a generational change in approach. Our tests show promise for meaningful reductions in attack surface and time-consuming security events,” said Ramin Safai, CISO of Jefferies Group LLC. “I applaud Symantec for focusing on tangible security outcomes – it’s precisely what the industry needs.”

Guy Guzner, Founder and CEO of Fireglass, said, “We’ve long admired Symantec for their leadership in protecting customers’ critical information. Fireglass’ industry-leading isolation technology helps customers battle zero-day attacks and other serious vulnerabilities, making it an essential element for protecting email, messaging and web browsing. It easily integrates with existing security solutions and across all forms of the endpoint including Windows, Mac, Android, iOS and all others including browser-enabled IoT devices. With Symantec’s global scale, we’re excited to bring this groundbreaking technology into the hands of more customers.”

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, and is expected to close in the third calendar quarter of 2017. Symantec expects Fireglass’ technology to be available to its customers and partners soon after the transaction closes. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
