“This groundbreaking is a culmination of an enormous dedication of so many people who are committed to this University,” said SIU President, Dan Mahony. “The programs that will be housed in this complex will produce the next generation of healthcare professionals.”

New NPG Paper Highlights the Pragmatism in Immigration Reduction


Emphasizing Common Sense in the Movement to Curtail Immigration

ALEXANDRIA. Va., Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Negative Population Growth, Inc. (NPG) has released a new Forum paper titled “Immigration Reduction: Xenophobia and Racism? Or, Common Sense and Pragmatism in a Crowded Nation?” Writing on what she calls the current Great Tsunami of Immigration, long-time journalist Kathleene Parker writes about a U.S. immigration history that – when not “revised” by open-border advocates to their own version of things – shows a nation that saw immigration as something solely to serve the nation’s interests, rather than as a social program to benefit the world. Parker says she is proud to stand with earlier immigration-reduction advocates, such as famous labor activist Cesar Chavez, Black, liberal Congresswoman Barbara Jordan (D.-Tx) and Coretta Scott King who, in the 1990s, helped stop a La Raza effort to make it legal to hire illegal border crossers. Parker, a long-time environmental activist in the American West, adds that she agrees strongly with the 11,000 climate scientists who warn that the current U.S. population explosion, being driven by historically unmatched levels of immigration, will nullify all efforts to address climate change.

Parker walks readers through the early years of immigration into the country, commenting on noteworthy policies and highlighting pertinent decades that perpetuated population growth nationwide. Forty years later, the Great Tsunami of Immigration (1960-2021) brought millions more into the United States. Parker states: “I do recall a nation – in the wake of Paul Ehrlich’s The Population Bomb and Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring – concerned about rapid population growth (then mostly from births) and about our nation’s impacts on ours and the world’s environment – that in an era when media – then owned by thousands of highly competitive news-gathering agencies, still reported fully and honestly about population.”

Speaking on The 1965 Immigration Act, Parker notes that the quotas were removed, and family reunification was emphasized. Parker moves forward in her analysis, sharing: “Because of things like the 1986 Act and migration patterns established by the Bracero Act, exploding illegal immigration became the new hot-button issue, as immigration – legal and illegal – soon far exceeded a million a year, while immigration from 1990 to 2020 exceeded the Great Wave, including 14 million just between 2000 and 2010, versus the 20 million of the entire Great Wave. What immigration, most of it illegal, will be post-Title 42, only time (and the next census) will determine, but we’re experiencing what I call the ‘Great Tsunami of Immigration.’ That tsunami washes over a now highly populated nation, wracked by megadrought, wildfires, hurricanes, and other natural disasters, a huge national debt, decaying infrastructure, and exploding crime rates (often of open-borders origins).”

Immigration to North America precedes the earliest national documents, and once the U.S. had its foundation in place, more people were added. Parker summarizes her work, saying: “You’d have to be naïve – or unaware of what’s really happening – to believe we can continue adding 20 to 30 million more people per decade, as we have post-1990, while meeting our carbon-reduction goals.” She concludes with a somber proposal: “Perhaps,” she writes, “our immigration tsunami is just as dangerous and harmful in its own way as any ocean tsunami sweeping across distant shores.”

Founded in 1972, NPG is a national nonprofit membership organization dedicated to educating the American public and political leaders regarding the damaging effects of population growth. We believe that our nation is already vastly overpopulated in terms of the long-range carrying capacity of its resources and environment. NPG advocates the adoption of its Proposed National Population Policy, with the goal of eventually stabilizing U.S. population at a sustainable level – far lower than today’s. We do not simply identify the problems – we propose solutions. For more information, visit our website at NPG.org, follow us on Facebook @NegativePopulationGrowth or follow us on Twitter @npg_org.

The Top 10 White Label Crypto Exchange Providers in 2023


Looking for the best white label crypto exchange solution for your business? Check out this top 10 list and find the perfect match for your needs.

PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Cryptocurrencies are becoming more popular and mainstream, especially among enterprises and institutional investors who are looking for alternative ways to diversify their portfolios, hedge against inflation, and access new markets. However, launching a crypto exchange from scratch can be costly, time-consuming, and risky. That’s why many businesses opt for white label crypto exchange solutions, which are pre-built and customizable software platforms that allow them to launch their own branded and tailored crypto exchange in a matter of weeks or even days.

Defining White Label Crypto Exchange Provider-

A white-label crypto exchange provider is a company/platform that offers ready-made solutions for launching a cryptocurrency exchange under a different brand name. They provide the necessary technology, infrastructure, and support for entrepreneurs/businesses to start their cryptocurrency exchange without building everything from scratch.

The major advantage of such a platform is that it is tested for its functionalities, technical capabilities, and implementation process. The components of a basic white-label crypto exchange platform are a trading engine, admin panel, user interface, and liquidity.

Why do Institutional Investors Prefer White Label Crypto Exchange Solutions?

White label crypto exchange solutions offer many benefits, such as:

  • Saving time and money by avoiding the hassle of developing, testing, and maintaining the exchange software
  • Gaining a competitive edge by leveraging the expertise and experience of the white label provider
  • Enhancing customer loyalty and retention by offering a unique and user-friendly trading experience
  • Complying with the regulatory requirements and security standards of different jurisdictions
  • Scaling up the exchange as the business grows and the market evolves

Selecting the Right White Label Crypto Exchange:

Not all white label crypto exchange solutions are created equal. There are many factors to consider when choosing the best one for your business needs, such as:

  • The degree of customization and flexibility offered by the white label provider
  • The available hosting options (cloud-based or self-hosted)
  • The pricing model and the hidden costs involved
  • Integration with Payment Gateways
  • The supported currencies and deposit methods (fiat, crypto, or both)
  • The scalability and performance of the exchange software

Nipomo dentist answers, ‘Is it normal for my three-year-old to still suck his thumb?’


Even children who abandoned the habit on their own might temporarily resume it if they become stressed. Moving to a new home, a new baby in the family, or even starting school can cause a child to feel unsettled and insecure. When a child resumes thumb-sucking due to most normal life changes, the habit usually stops as soon as the child feels comfortable with the new routine. Prolonged thumb-sucking in children older than 5 years, might be an indication of other issues. “A visit to the family dentist to eliminate any issues with oral health. The family pediatrician can also make sure there are no health issues,” says the Nipomo dentist.

Continuing to thumb-suck can cause problems with tooth alignment, and the bite and perhaps cause lisping. Pacifiers, although an easier habit to break, can also cause alignment problems. Other effects of long-term thumb-sucking include:

  • Contributing to an overbite or an underbite.
  • Changing the position of teeth.
  • Creating protruding teeth that are more likely to chip or break.
  • Altering the shape of the roof of the mouth or jaw.
  • Contributing to speech and chewing problems.
  • Increased exposure to germs.

The Nipomo dentist reports that distracting the child is the best way to break the habit in most cases.

  • Play a game, do an art project together, or read together.
  • Comforting the child followed by a distracting activity.
  • Discuss the issue with older children, explaining the long-term effects.
  • Involve older children in choosing methods to break the habit.
  • Praise when the child is not sucking.
  • Make an appointment with the dentist or pediatrician for advice.

Dr. Douglas Ng has been providing families with quality, state-of-the-art dental care since 2008. He is a California native who graduated with honors as a Regents Scholar from the University of California, Riverside. He then earned his DDS from Loma Linda University School of Dentistry and has since dedicated his career to providing the best care that dentistry has to offer.

Dr. Ng fulfills his passion for dental education by being a member of the SLO Chapter of the Spear Study Club and serves as the Continuing Education Chair for the Central Coast Dental Society.
