YOUR BRAIN ON DISPATCH
December 29, 2016, 3 years ago
By Mary Ransier
Research shows that the oldest part of the brain, known as the reptilian brain, is where most of the functions of the autonomic nervous system take place—the actions that keep you alive without you needing to think about them consciously, like breathing or regulating heartbeat. It is where the autonomic nervous system breaks down into the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, the yin and yang creating balance in your body.
The sympathetic nervous system allocates resources and energy; it dumps a cocktail of adrenaline, cortisol, and other hormones into the bloodstream to ready the body for challenge. Although the sympathetic nervous system and stress response were tools saving our ancestors from dangers like big saber-toothed tigers, the tools can have an adverse effect in today's world. Humans can actually think themselves into the stress response.
The parasympathetic nervous system helps the body recuperate once the perceived "danger" is passed. Recuperation can depend upon the amount of chemicals and hormones dumped into the bloodstream. The response can range from shutdown for maintenance to jitters and the urge to exercise to burn off the residual adrenaline.
Because dispatch involves constant emergency, the body and brain lack the time for scheduled maintenance and rest, and, in turn, the continuous cycling and surges in adrenaline and other hormones have detrimental effects to health and well-being.
When the brain shuts down, dispatchers can experience tunnel vision and a phenomenon called "auditory exclusion."1 This sensory breakdown can alter the individual's ability to multitask and/or perform all the job functions needed during a critical incident. The autonomic, reptilian part of the brain prepares for possible blood loss to limbs by shunting blood away from those areas and to important organs. In a process called vasoconstriction, the blood moves away from the surface and extremities, which includes draining blood from the neocortex, where rational thought occurs.
The sedentary nature of a dispatcher's job combined with the inability to fight, flight, or freeze and burn off the chemical cocktail can lead to high levels of exhaustion.
According to retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, whose current work specializes in the psychology of killing and ways to reduce violence in society, "The midbrain is in charge, and you'll do what you've trained to do–no more, no less. You will do what you've been programmed to do–no more, no less."2
If a dispatcher gets to this point and lacks adequate training, there's a high probability of the stress response taking over and causing the dispatcher to either freeze up or physically push away from the console.
How are we as trainers, supervisors, managers, peers, and organizations, going to deal with the physical reaction to stress? Do we tell our employees to "Suck it up buttercup" and hope they can weather the storm? Or do we shed light on this cockroach known as stress and watch it skitter away into the dark by equipping our dispatchers with what they need?
Being a good dispatcher is not an absence of fear. Rather it is the ability to control fear and learn effective ways to cope. Coming into this field and knowing how the brain works and the physiological outcomes under stress can help prevent crippling self-doubt, freezing, or fear from taking over in the moment. According to Grossman, "We can educate people after the event, to help them understand and heal, but it's much better to do it beforehand. We want a vaccine, not penicillin. Forewarned is forearmed. If you are warned that these things will happen to you [your body] they won't blindside you."3

Ostropka – potok, lewy dopływ Kłodnicy o długości 6,49 km i szerokości koryta w średnim biegu około 1,2 m.

Potok płynie na terytorium Gliwic. Źródła Ostropki znajdują się na północnych obrzeżach dzielnicy Ostropa, od której bierze swą nazwę. Następnie płynie przez Wójtową Wieś w sztucznie pogłębionym korycie pomiędzy ulicami Wójtowską i Daszyńskiego a następnie pomiędzy ulicami Dolnej Wsi i Słowackiego (na tym odcinku wzdłuż potoku prowadzi wysadzana lipami aleja spacerowa). Począwszy od okolic Gliwickiego Teatru Muzycznego dolny bieg potoku jest skanalizowany. Kanał prowadzi pod ulicami Nowy Świat, Jana Pawła II i Dworcową. Skanalizowana Ostropka wpływa do Kłodnicy tuż przy moście nad tą ostatnią w ciągu ulicy Dworcowej.

Dopływem Ostropki jest Wójtowianka wpływający prawostronnie do jej podziemnego odcinka w pobliżu Gliwickiego Teatru Muzycznego.

Let's talk about demons and dragons. What are the dragons in your life? Who are the demons? We all have parts of ourselves that we are not proud of. How do we deal with these parts? Do we challenge our demons, shun them, or embrace them? Do we slay our dragons or do they slay us?
Maybe what seem like demons are repressed feelings or exiled parts of ourselves. We all have a part or parts of us that we imprison. This part could be a wounded inner child, or angry feelings, or a shameful memory. We hide those unwanted feelings or parts in a dark place. Unfortunately, the darker the dungeon, the angrier or more lonely or more ashamed they become. The spurned feelings get stronger. Once we get to know them, however, they don't seem so threatening. If we attend to them, talk to them, they calm down and stop yelling. We can open the door, let them out, and find that they can actually be quite civil after a nice tea-time chat.
Maybe these feelings or parts are like histamine. Histamine helps our bodies fight off pathogens like cold viruses, causing us to feel sick. Our noses run, we develop a fever, we feel run down. We don't like the histamine, the mucus in our nose, the fever, but they are our helpers. Similarly, our inner critic tries to protect us by criticizing us. He or she may believe that criticism prevents us from getting into trouble; if we feel shame about an act, we will probably refrain. How about our inner child? He or she may throw a tantrum, wanting attention, rest, or love. Our Shadow is another part of us that feels like a threat. But when we shun our Shadow, we project it onto others and lose a potentially valuable part of ourselves.
Our immune system, our Shadow, our inner child, our critic; all may make us feel sick, but it it a love-sickness; the phlegm, the criticism, the walling off don't feel good, but they are our body's and psyche's attempt to heal or protect us. So perhaps what seem like demons and dragons are hexed princes. When we embrace our inner critic, tend to our wounded inner child, love each part of ourselves, the demons, like the kissed frog, become princes.

"As a young lad, living in Saltburn, it was a short walk to reach the top of Huntcliff to the site of the old signalling station which has now been almost completely lost.
Standing on the top of Huntcliff, buffeted by the wind blowing in from the North Sea, I would look out to sea beyond the ships waiting for the tide to take them into Tees Dock and gaze at the distant horizon.
Huntcliff Consulting was founded in 2012 to enable others to take a view from the top of the rock, find the mental space to think without the clutter of everyday, gain clarity, explore possibilities and open new horizons.
Travelling down the North East coast, the relatively flat coastline terminates abruptly when you arrive at Huntcliff Nab, a great promontory which projects out into the North Sea.
Dominating the coastline a mile to the east of Saltburn, Huntcliff is a vertical sea cliff standing some 365ft above sea level and is a site familiar to all visitors of the town.
Atop Huntcliff was one of a number of Roman signalling stations situated along the Yorkshire coast, defended by a group of Romanised Britons, built as watchtowers to protect against the threat of Anglo-Saxon raids from Denmark and Germany.

European Commission announces action on VAT evasion in the yachting sector
Stef Bottinelli
The European Commission has started formal action against three EU member states for not charging the correct amount of VAT on the provision of yachts
TAGS: cypruseuropean commissionGreeceGreek taxMaltayachts
The European Commission has announced its cracking down on VAT evasion in the yachting sector.
The move follows revelations contained in the Paradise Papers of widespread tax dodging in the purchase of private boats. The EU believes this evasion is facilitated by national rules which do not comply with EU VAT law.
The Commission has started formal action against on three EU state members – Cyprus, Greece and Malta – for not charging the correct amount of VAT on the provision of yachts.
The infringement procedures announced are specifically related to:
The reduced VAT base for the lease of yachts – a general VAT scheme provided by Cyprus, Greece and Malta. While current EU VAT rules allow Member States not to tax the supply of a service where the effective use and enjoyment of the product is outside the EU, they do not allow for a general flat-rate reduction without proof of the place of actual use. Malta, Cyprus and Greece have established guidelines according to which the larger the boat is, the less the lease is estimated to take place in EU waters, a rule which greatly reduces the applicable VAT rate.
The incorrect taxation in Cyprus and Malta of purchases of yachts by means of what is known as 'lease-purchase'. The Cypriot and Maltese laws currently classify the leasing of a yacht as a supply of a service rather than a good. This results in VAT only being levied at the standard rate on a minor amount of the real cost price of the craft once the yacht has finally been bought, the rest being taxed as the supply of a service and at a greatly reduced rate.
Pierre Moscovici, Commissioner for Economic and Financial Affairs, Taxation and Customs Union, said: "In order to achieve fair taxation we need to take action wherever necessary to combat VAT evasion. We cannot allow this type of favourable tax treatment granted to private boats, which also distorts competition in the maritime sector. Such practices violate EU law and must come to an end."
Cyprus, Greece and Malta received letters by the European Commissions on Thursday 8 March and have been given two months to respond to the tax evasion claims.

Buffalo Sabres Top 25 Under 25: #25 Casey Fitzgerald
August 25, 2021 by Die By The Blade Leave a Comment
Photo by Jason Mowry/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images
The 24-year-old blueliner leads off this year's herd of prospects.
The Top 25 Under 25 is a collaboration by members of the Die By The Blade community. It was a combination of six staff writers and over 485 fans that ranked players under the age of 25 as of August 10, 2021. Each participant used their own metric of current ability and production to rank each player.
We kick things off in our 2021 iteration of the top 25 under 25 with Casey Fitzgerald, who was not ranked among the top 25 last summer. There's been a fair bit of turnover from last summer's list. Part of that is, of course, due to some players "aging out," such as the now-26-year-old Victor Olofsson, but there are also a handful of players no longer with the organization: Sam Reinhart, Will Borgen and Jonas Johansson.
Fitzgerald, 24, was drafted by the Sabres in 2016. After being drafted, he finished out his full collegiate hockey career at Boston College, then made the jump to the AHL with Rochester at the end of the 2018-19 season.
The right-handed defenseman appeared in 22 games with the Amerks last season and put up 11 points. The Sabres re-signed Fitzgerald earlier this month to a two-year, two-way deal with an AAV of $750,000 at the NHL level.
How has it already been just over a month since the season ended?

Fitzgerald will likely start the season again in the AHL, but he could get his first look at the NHL this year at some point. The Sabres have only three right-handed defensemen on their roster – Colin Miller, Mark Pysyk and Henri Jokiharju – and Fitzgerald is one of only three at the minor-league level. (He's joined by Oskari Laaksonen and Ethan Prow.)

24 October, 2021 24 October, 2021 Dung NguyenLeave a Comment on 5km Alien Monolith On Moon In NASA Photo! UFO Sighting News.
Today I went through the lunar orbiter mission photos and soon found an a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ structure sticking out in the side of a crater. The structure is a monolith type shape. The object in question is an a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ made structure laying on its side. The structure is about 5km long and 2.5km wide. The structure looks intact and should still be habitable if humans landed in that location and took it over. Its a self contained structure, a habitat that probably already can create an oxygen atmosphere within it, but if not, could easily be converted to do so. Its a lot easier than other suggestions scientists have given of making a dome over a crater…which could have leaks and you basically have to start from nothing. Here…its all ready and waiting for someone to take it over. But a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ life is less of a mystery than humanity itself. Its hard to understand why most scientists would ignore such a great opportunity to instead start from nothing on the moon. Thats…how humans are…we chose to argue about subjects rather than take action. It holds humanity back. Its a waste of valuable time. The structure is there…and I predict humanity will ignore its discovery.

Research conducted by Veolia and Imperial College has projected that the UK waste and resource sector could save over 200 million tonnes of carbon emissions between the years 2023 – 2032.
But, according to Veolia, the UK won't fulfil its carbon reduction commitments at current rates of emission mitigation.
The company explains that waste and resource sector is "powering ahead" with a variety of energy saving solutions to redress this imbalance.
The report identifies a number of opportunities for the waste and resources sector to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
These solutions include replacing a proportion of UK energy use for heating purposes with the heating generated by energy recovery facilities (ERFs). If ERFs utilise their ability to deliver district heating to local business and residents "it could generate 530 MW of heat; cutting carbon emissions by 570,000 tonnes," Veolia says.
Also, by recycling 500,000 tonnes of plastic waste, including pots tubs and trays. Veolia says better design in manufacturing combined with upgrading recycling facilities will help save over 1 million tonnes of CO2 emissions.
And, if 50% of all diesel trucks, vans and cars in the sector to be replaced by electric. Making this change "will improve air quality as well as contribute to long term climate goals," Veolia notes, "saving 400,000 tonnes of CO2 in emissions".
Richard Kirkman, chief technology and innovation officer at Veolia, said: "Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is essential to controlling climate change.
Veolia has taken the opportunity to highlight its "green innovation", which includes the company's plastics facility in London. The facility processes 300,000,000 bottles (HDPE) and turns them into high quality food grade pellets for manufacturing.
Nick Voulvoulis, professor of environmental technology, Imperial College London, who led the research commissioned by Veolia, explained: "While effective new strategies and policies are urgently needed to ensure that UK greenhouse gas emissions continue to fall, the waste and resource sector offers a great potential to reduce the carbon shortfall in the country's 4th and 5th carbon budgets and to combat climate change.

Ukraine and Propaganda Aimed at… You
I hate going back, again, to Orwell, but since the world is intent on using his epic novel 1984 as an instructional guide, I have no choice. So proles, take note: this week's Two Minutes of Hate will be split between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump. They apparently share the goal of destroying American democracy via the invasion of the Ukraine.
Something very sinister happened in the American mind space over the last few days. Ukraine, a country of little importance to the United States, suddenly became the sole focus of most media-consuming Americans. Constructed to appear organic, it is impossible to not imagine guiding hands behind the shift of every single media outlet to a single story told in a single way. Leap frogging over one another, social media and traditional media competed for the most extreme Ukraine stories.
One of the first was the Ghost Pilot of Kiev, who improbably shot down six Russian aircraft. No matter the whole story soon proved false and the images shown were created by game sim software. This was followed by a tale of Ukrainian soldiers on some island who died valiantly rather than surrender, which also was not true as we learned days later they did indeed surrender.
America was flooded with images of gorgeous Ukrainian girls with AirSoft toy rifles volunteering for the front. Ukrainian cats are supposedly trained to spot Russian laser sights. Pictures appeared of plucky people making Molotov cocktails to fight the Russians in the streets. FYI, those cocktails would a) have either evaporated their inflammant through the rag before use, you can't make 'em days in advance or b) set fire to the thrower. Unless the rag is very, very tightly in the bottle, the inflammant will run down the thrower's arm and set him afire. Propaganda has no time apparently for WikiHow.
But the most intense propaganda was reserved for the Ukrainian president, labeled by the MSM as both a George Washington and a Winston Churchill. Combat reports of him patrolling the streets in cammies are now a standard feature. The tell on all this is how unspecific the propaganda is. Yep, that's Zelensky alright, but exactly where is he? When was the footage shot? We haven't seen this much veneration of a foreign leader since the election of savior-o-the-day Iraqi Prime Ministers a decade or so ago.
The Ukraine coverage is fact-free, all about narratives of hot girls with guns. Nothing about what is going on. Is one side winning? It's all just emotion to stim you into equally meaningless acts.
It worked. Shallow Americans are "standing with" Ukraine, throwing Russian alcohol off the shelves, lining up to eat at Ukrainian diners, and of course posting across social media. Overnight we as a nation became experts on SWIFT, and patriots ready to pay more at the gas pumps for freedom. My neighbor made a show of pouring out some old vodka at a party but was unaware our state generates most of its electricity from Russian crude. And never mind vodka accounts for only millions out of the billions in other things the US imports from Russia.
Alongside all this false and misleading information is the overnight disappearance of the fact checkers. The same people who would jump on a Covid article for misquoting a protein statistic, or cancel an account for not following the party line on masking, are dead silent in the face of a tsunami of Ukrainian propaganda. No surprise a former Ukrainian president lauded CNN as an "objective source of information as a contradiction against Russian information." Twitter labels all tweets linking to Russian state media while allowing Ukrainian sources free reign.
If any of this seems familiar, rewind to the 2016 presidential campaign, and then get back to the future.
The propaganda, having whipped Americans into blood lust demanding Putin's death, has now begun its metamorphosis into tying Trump into all this. In doing so, the campaign builds on the remnants of 2016, when the Clinton machine falsely claimed the Russians elected Trump as their agent in place.
USA Today writes "Trump's bromance with Putin was very much on display… as the former president saw it, there was nothing to condemn [in Ukraine] but much to admire." NYT says "The American political right… has shifted toward fawning praise for autocrats, even those leading America's traditional adversaries. Where once Russia and other autocracies were seen as anti-democratic, they have now become symbols of US conservatism — a mirror for the right-wing worldview. Supporting Mr. Putin, as well as other authoritarian leaders, is yet another way in which the political right is weaponizing culture wars to further divide Americans."
Salon explains "how Trump's coup attempt [January 6] encouraged Putin's Ukraine invasion" and says "Donald Trump and his regime consistently acted as vassals for Vladimir Putin's regime and Russia's strategic interests." WaPo notes "the implications of President Vladimir Putin's actions against the United States in 2016 will finally sink in, especially for Republicans in Congress. The Vladimir Putin who planned, staged and launched a large-scale war on Ukraine is the same Vladimir Putin who ordered an aggressive, multifaceted, clandestine campaign to interfere in the 2016 U.S. presidential election." The Atlantic hauls out none other than Hillary Clinton to thunder "It's a five-alarm national-security crisis. The hard truth is that if Republicans won't stand up to Trump, they can't stand up to Putin or Xi."
There are two things to worry about here. The first is the amazing speed with which a massive narrative can be forced into American brains in a coordinated fashion. Ukrainian propaganda sucked all of the oxygen from the room so quickly it should scare us. The second thing to fear is how quickly American partisan political forces were able to hijack the initial anti-Russian narrative and repurpose it into a slightly revised version of 2016's "Trump is a Russian asset." No matter that that itself has been debunked as Clinton-made propaganda, the story line is somehow Trump and Putin are working together to destroy Ukraine on their way to ending American democracy.
Trump has nothing to do with Putin, or the Ukraine, and the latter two have nothing to do with American democracy. As in Orwell's world, our thoughts are no longer are own. We are told how to think and groomed how to vote.

Foster City wants to impose a 9.5% Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) on guests in the hotels, motels and inns here, and increase it eventually to 12%.
The City Council wants people who don't live in Foster City and largely do not use city services to pay for the services used by businesses and homeowners who do live and work in Foster City.
Making visitors to Foster City pay for services that they won't or can't use, is immoral.
It's wrong and the voters should vote NO on Measure TT.
If voters repeal the TOT, more visitors would stay in Foster City and that would help boost the local economy.
VOTE "NO" ON MEASURE TT.


Morazone is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug used as an analgesic. It produces phenmetrazine as a major metabolite and has been reported to have been abused as a recreational drug in the past.
Morclofone is a cough suppressant.
Morindone is an anthraquinone compound obtained from various Morinda species. Its principal use is as a dye, but it has also been investigated for anticancer and microbial uses.
Morphan is a chemical compound. It is the base of the benzomorphan family of drugs.
Morphine Hydrochloride is an antitussive and analgesic compound used for the relief of cough and pain in terminal disease.It is one of the most permanent salts of the alkaloid.
Morphine-6-glucuronide is a major active metabolite of morphine, and as such is the molecule responsible for much of the pain-relieving effects of morphine. It is formed from morphine by UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase-2B7. It can accumulate to toxic levels in kidney failure. The μ-opioid receptor subtype 3 appears to be activated by morphine-6β-glucuronide but not morphine itself. This finding is also true of certain heroin metabolites but not morphine proper.
Mosapramine is an atypical antipsychotic used in Japan. It is a potent dopamine antagonist with high affinity to the D2, D3, and D4 receptors, and with moderate affinity for the 5-HT2 receptors.
Mosapride is a gastroprokinetic agent that acts as a selective 5HT4 agonist which accelerates gastric emptying and is used for the treatment of acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome and functional dyspepsia.

I have heard of people talking about life-changing experience. I always thought that was just a type of exaggerating expression. I had never dreamed that one day it could happen to me until I joined Kah-Wai Lin's photography workshop in Iceland. The trip was so carefully planned with the best local guide, luxury transportation and fantastic sites selection. Everyday we went to amazing places with some rural places that only allow private vehicles, so our photo shootings were never disturbed by other tourists.
Twelve days in Iceland were like a fairyland dream that was forever remembered in more than two thousand beautiful photos admired by my friends! Unlike most of my teammates, I was close to ignorant in photography before going on this trip. I still vividly remember that I crashed the most important 6 stop filter while trying to put it on for the first time on the first day of the trip.
Kah-Wai lent me his for the rest of the trip and taught me everything from changing camera settings, finding the right composition, manipulating exposure time to get different artistic effects and afterwards photo processing. He is truly a master! His works are always breathtaking and awesome! As a young and talented photography master, he has a big heart and is willing to teach everyone without holding anything back. He is also warm hearted, considerate, patient, responsible and reliable.
This trip changed my life completely! In stead of sleeping in, now I enjoy morning run while hearing chirping birds and gurgling streams, seeing beautiful sunrise and dews of flowers. I become so happy everyday even when I am working. All of the things that surround me become more vivid and full of life. It is like I have a pair of new eyes in me, that see the world now in colors, lines, patterns and all interesting compositions. This kind of happiness is beyond anything I can describe! You would need to join one of Kah-Wai's workshops to find out yourself!

Thimphu is de hoofdstad van het Aziatische bergstaatje Bhutan en ze ligt in het district Thimphu. De stad ligt in het westen van het land aan de rivier Wang Chu op 2300 meter hoogte en is omringd door bergen.

Thimphu telde in 2017 115.501 inwoners (in 1997 telde het stadje 45.321 inwoners). Het is daarmee een van de kleinste hoofdsteden ter wereld. Er zijn geen werkende verkeerslichten; indien nodig regelt een verkeersagent het verkeer. Hoogbouw ontbreekt en de huizen zijn gebouwd in traditionele architectuur.

De toenmalige koning, Jigme Dorji Wangchuk, bepaalde in 1955 dat Thimphu in het vervolg de enige hoofdstad zou zijn. Daarvoor kende Bhutan twee hoofdsteden: Punakha, de winterhoofdstad en Thimphu, de zomerhoofdstad.

Bezienswaardigheden
 Het boeddhistische klooster Tashicho dzong uit de 18e eeuw is sinds 1952 de regeringszetel van Bhutan. Daarnaast is dit het religieuze centrum van het land, waar 's zomers de geestelijke leider (de Je Khenpo) en zijn gevolg verblijven. In deze dzong vindt ook het jaarlijkse Tsechu-festival plaats.
 Het paleis Dechenchoeling is de residentie van de koning. Het ligt enige kilometers ten noorden van de stad.
 De Memorial Chorten is een tempel, gebouwd ter nagedachtenis aan de derde koning Jigme Dorji Wangchuk. Hij werd in 1974 gebouwd in opdracht van zijn echtgenote, de moeder van de huidige koning.
 De Nationale Bibliotheek, in het centrum van Thimphu, bevat veel oude belangrijke manuscripten in het Dzongkha en Tibetaans. Ze zijn met mooie stoffen omslagen.
 In Thimphu bevinden zich verder nog het voetbalveld, bekend van The Other Final, het "handicraft emporium", waar ambachtelijke producten te koop zijn en de School voor de Kunsten en Ambachten, ook wel "painting school" genoemd.
 Zes kilometer ten zuiden van Thimphu ligt de oudste kloosterburcht van Bhutan: Simthoka Dzong. Het werd gebouwd in 1629 door Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal.
 De Grote Boeddha Dordenma staat enkele kilometers ten zuiden van de stad.

Evenementen
 Het jaarlijkse Tsechu-festival is een religieus festival, vooral ter ere van Guru Rinpoche. Tijdens het festival, dat enkele dagen duurt, worden een groot aantal traditionele dansen opgevoerd. In navolging van Guru Rinpoche worden, zo gelooft men, de kwade geesten en demonen weggejaagd.

The Nutrition of Cow Tongue
by Christine Gray
Use a long, slow cooking method to tenderize beef tongue.
Stores sell beef tongue fresh, pickled, smoked and corned. If you're cooking fresh beef tongue, make sure to use a long, slow cooking process that will help tenderize the meat. Fresh beef tongue should be used within 24 hours of purchase and must be thoroughly scrubbed before cooking.
A 3-ounce serving of simmered beef tongue contains 241 calories, 33 percent of the daily value of protein, 29 percent of fat, 35 percent of saturated fat and 44 percent of cholesterol. It has little sodium and no carbohydrates or fiber.
Beef tongue is a rich source of protein. Every cell in your body contains protein, and protein helps your body manufacture, repair and maintain cells and is essential to fetal, childhood and adolescent growth and development.
Fat constitutes 71 percent of the calories in simmered tongue. Almost 56 percent of that fat comes from heart-healthy monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which can help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Eating too many polyunsaturated fats, however, has been linked to an increased risk of certain types of cancers. The rest of the fat in cow tongue is saturated, which can cause elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels. High triglyceride levels have been linked to inflammation and pancreatitis, a potentially deadly disease. Fat contains essential elements called linoleic and linolenic acids that are key to blood clotting, brain development, healthy skin and hair and aid in controlling inflammation. Fat is also necessary for the absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K.
A 3-ounce serving of tongue has 44 percent of the DV of cholesterol, a fat-like substance called a lipid. Your body needs cholesterol to manufacture cell membranes and certain hormones, but your liver produces enough cholesterol to cover these uses. Elevated cholesterol levels can lead to heart disease. The Texas Heart Institute estimates that 98 million Americans have elevated cholesterol levels and 34 million have high cholesterol.
A serving of beef tongue supplies 32 percent of the adult male recommended dietary allowance for zinc and 39 percent of the RDA for women. This essential mineral aids in enzyme and immune function, DNA and protein synthesis, wound healing, cell division and normal growth and development. Zinc also plays a role in your abilities to taste and smell.
Iron requirements vary greatly between men and women. Three ounces of beef tongue provide 28 percent of the RDA of iron for men and 12 percent for women. Iron helps the body take oxygen from the lungs into the blood stream and then to the body's tissues. Iron also aids in cell growth and differentiation. The National Institutes of Health reports that up to 80 percent of the world's population may be iron deficient and 30 percent may suffer from iron-deficiency anemia. Iron-deficiency anemia is characterized by fatigue, weakness, increased susceptibility to infection and an inflamed tongue. It can lead to delayed cognitive and social development in children.

The Banks is a multi-phased mixed-use development, uniquely situated on the Ohio River at the foot of the historic Roebling Suspension Bridge and between the Great American Ballpark and Paul Brown Stadium. The project provides a vibrant connection between downtown Cincinnati and the riverfront, filling what was essentially a void in this important connection. The completed work transforms the urban riverfront into a vibrant and sustainable gateway, linking the existing entertainment venues and providing a variety of attractions within itself.
Included in the first phase is approximately 300 apartments along with approximately 60,000 sq. ft. of ground-level retail and restaurant space. Apartments have dramatic views of downtown Cincinnati and the Ohio River, and the exciting new streetscape is populated with residents and the many visitors to the riverfront with its sports stadiums and the Freedom Center museum.
The architectural features of the project were carefully coordinated through vigorous discussions with many public and private entities. The result is a balance of modern aesthetics and economical design.

Incomplete service roads lead to road safety issues, blocks
National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), which is planning to complete Kazhakkoottam-Mukkola project soon, has not been able to finish the construction of service roadsJisha Surya | TNN | December 05, 2019, 14:14 IST
One of the major pending works is the construction of Chackai flyover, which NHAI is planning to complete by next week.
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), which is planning to complete Kazhakkoottam-Mukkola project soon, has not been able to finish the construction of service roads. Due to the absence of proper service roads, buses stop on the main road, leading to traffic blocks and road safety issues.
Sources blamed public protest for this issue. "Despite several attempts, NHAI couldn't build the retaining wall and drain at Guru Nagar near Infosys due to public protest. People demanded a pedestrian underpass and protesters disrupted work," sources said.
NHAI's water conservation project in Maharashtra my 'best' work: Gadkari
NHAI plans ramp to decongest UP Gate
NHAI, which might seek police protection, is planning to restart the work within 15 days as it must finish the project within a few months.
"Buses are now stopping on the main road, which will affect the smooth flow of traffic on the national highway. The buses should ideally use service roads. Now, passengers wait for buses on the highway, which is an additional risk," sources said.
The construction of a drain was affected by protest and NHAI had to construct a separate drain at Kazhakkoottam to prevent waterlogging.
Though NHAI declined the proposal for a pedestrian underpass citing design issues, residents argued that crossing was becoming a difficult task along the stretch.
It also rejected a foot overbridge (FOB) plan, stating that pedestrians would not use it citing the huge, level difference.
Sources said that though NHAI provided FOBs at several locations, pedestrians weren't using them.
Speeding vehicles, lack of streetlights and crossing facilities make life difficult for pedestrians.
Meanwhile, tourism minister Kadakampally Surendran and NHAI officials are planning an inspection at Karikkakom next week. At this spot, a retired teacher and her daughter were killed in an accident while crossing the highway.

Q: Using IHtmlHelper with Dependency Injection I would create a controller that response with the third-party IHtmlContent created through IHtmlHelper interface without using View() method. Actually I'm using a workaround:
I have created an extension function of IHtmlHelper that behaves like a "master" and other static function that behaves like "slaves". The master function call slaves based on data structure that It has received as a parameter. Slaves create the IHtmlContent based on third-party library. When all slave functions are completed, the controller send back the response.
This behaviour is inside cshtml view called by controller.
Is possible to have IHtmlHelper as controller constructor parameter using dependency Injection?
Something like
public class MyTestController
{
    private readonly IHtmlHelper _html;

    public MyTestController(IHtmlHelper html) {
     _html = html;
    }
}

If it were possible I would simplify many operations because I'm using this Master/Slave functions to replicate the behaviours of a class
Here you can find a pure example of how my code works now and how I would like to change it
https://gist.github.com/Blackleones/eb0d02b9dd99164271af88e22143d72b#file-example-cs
I need this component because the third-party library is an extension of IHtmlHelper

A: I thank Itminus for answering me.
However call IHtmlHelper on controller constructor it is not enough, you must contextualize IHtmlHelper before using it.
I want to share another solution that I found and solve my problem, maybe It can be useful for other users.
Please see https://gist.github.com/Blackleones/eb0d02b9dd99164271af88e22143d72b#file-example-cs to remember what my goal is.

*

*To solve my problem I have created a class called HtmlHelperAdapter that contains some instances I need.

public class MyHtmlHelperAdapter
{
        public IHtmlHelper _html;

        public NubessHtmlHelperAdapter(IHtmlHelper html)
        {
            _html = html;
        }

        public IHtmlHelper Html => _html;
        public ViewContext ViewContext => _html.ViewContext;
        public HttpContext HttpContext => _html.ViewContext.HttpContext;
        public ViewDataDictionary ViewData => _html.ViewData;
        public IServiceProvider provider => _html.ViewContext.HttpContext.RequestServices;
}

*after that I have created an extension method for IHtmlHelper

public static class MyBuilderExtension
{
        public static MyBuilder Nubess(this IHtmlHelper html)
        {
            return new MyBuilder(new MyHtmlHelperAdapter(html));
        }
}

where MyBuilder is
public class MyBuilder
    {
        private readonly MyHtmlHelperAdapter _htmlHelper;

        public MyBuilder(MyHtmlHelperAdapter htmlHelper)
        {
            _htmlHelper = htmlHelper;
        }

        public FormBuilder<object> Form<T>(IDictionary<string, string> customizeArgs = null, FormBuilder<object> externalForm = null)
        {
            return new FormBuilder(_htmlHelper, typeof(T), customizeArgs, externalForm).Build();
        }
    }

*now I can create my custom contents for views using class thanks to MyHtmlHelperAdapter
 public class FormBuilder
 {
        private MyHtmlHelperAdapter _htmlHelper;
        private readonly IStringLocalizer<SharedResources> _localizer;
        private readonly LinkGenerator _linkGenerator;
        private readonly IEngine _engine;
        private readonly IEngineElement _element;
        private readonly Type _typeDescriptor;
        private readonly IDictionary<string, string> _descriptorArgs;

        /* variabili per semplificare la gestione del builder */
        private readonly FormBuilder<object> Form;
        private readonly FormConfig Config;
        private readonly IList<FormGroupConfig> Groups;
        private readonly IList<FormItemConfig> Items;
        private readonly IDictionary<string, string> FormOptions;

        private readonly string _clientPrefix = "smtForm_{0}_";

        public FormBuilder(MyHtmlHelperAdapter htmlHelper, Type typeDescriptor, IDictionary<string, string> ModelCustomizeArgs = null, FormBuilder<object> externalForm = null)
        {
            _htmlHelper = htmlHelper;
            _localizer = _htmlHelper.provider.GetRequiredService<IStringLocalizer<SharedResources>>() ?? throw new ArgumentNullException();
            _linkGenerator = _htmlHelper.provider.GetRequiredService<LinkGenerator>() ?? throw new ArgumentNullException();
            _engine = _htmlHelper.provider.GetRequiredService<IEngine>() ?? throw new ArgumentNullException();

            //code..
        }

        public FormBuilder<object> Build()
        {
            //code..
            return Form;
        }

     //methods..
}

A: Short answer : Yes .

If you look into the source code of MVC, you will find that the IHtmlHelper is registered as a transient service :
    internal static void AddViewServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {

        ...

        //
        // HTML Helper
        //
        services.TryAddTransient<IHtmlHelper, HtmlHelper>();
        services.TryAddTransient(typeof(IHtmlHelper<>), typeof(HtmlHelper<>));
        services.TryAddSingleton<IHtmlGenerator, DefaultHtmlGenerator>();
        services.TryAddSingleton<ModelExpressionProvider>();
        // ModelExpressionProvider caches results. Ensure that it's re-used when the requested type is IModelExpressionProvider.
        services.TryAddSingleton<IModelExpressionProvider>(s => s.GetRequiredService<ModelExpressionProvider>());
        services.TryAddSingleton<ValidationHtmlAttributeProvider, DefaultValidationHtmlAttributeProvider>();

        services.TryAddSingleton<IJsonHelper, DefaultJsonHelper>();

        ...

    }

In other words, you could inject the IHtmlHelper service as you like.
Just as a reminder, we should always prefer to using IHtmlHelper within View Layer.


The innovative assistance system includes a function for detecting significant wet road conditions and a corresponding vehicle setup for increased driving stability on wet road surfaces.
"Wet Mode was developed to provide the driver with consistent support in wet conditions. It does not restrict the maximum power of the engine or limit the top speed, and should therefore also not be used as insurance for driving too fast in very wet conditions. Instead, it should be seen as an assistance system in the truest sense," says August Achleitner, who has been head of the model series for many years.
Porsche Wet Mode can automatically detect a wet road and warn the driver about the risk of aquaplaning. For this purpose, acoustic sensors in the front wheel housing detect swirled-up spray water. This makes it fundamentally different from windscreen wiper rain sensors, which only react optically to water droplets on the windscreen independently of the road conditions. This is because there may still be standing water on the road even when a rain shower has passed.
The eighth generation of the new 911 was presented in Los Angeles at the end of November 2018. The turbocharged flat-six engine of the 911 Carrera S and 911 Carrera 4S now produces 331 kW (450 PS; 911 Carrera S: Fuel consumption combined 8.9 l/100 km; CO2 emissions 205 g/km; 911 Carrera 4S: Fuel consumption combined 9.0 l/100 km; CO2 emissions 206 g/km). This corresponds to an increase of 22 kW (30 PS) compared with the previous model. Both 911 models beat the four-second mark for acceleration from zero to 100 km/h: the rear-wheel-drive Coupé needs 3.7 seconds and the 911 Carrera 4S with all-wheel drive just 3.6 seconds. This makes both cars 0.4 seconds faster than the previous model in each case.
The 911 Carrera S costs from 120,125 euros in Germany, the 911 Carrera 4S from 127,979 euros; the corresponding Cabriolet variants are available from 134,405 euros or 142,259 euros respectively. The prices include value-added tax and country-specific equipment. Porsche Wet Mode is standard equipment in all models.


Beckenham, arriving as top of the league, unbeaten and confident, had bossed the first half and, although the joints were beginning to creak, looked home and hosed; Park were getting more of the ball and moving it, often perilously, and sometimes risk gets reward. Their ball-carriers were carrying more and there were hints of gaps. Suddenly one opened, Jake Conway was through on halfway and his deliciously delayed pass sent Tommy Nightingale clear from thirty yards under the posts. His conversion brought the bonus point, but there was time for the kick off and multiple stages of off-loading and rucks eventually and amazingly left Ed Mason free on the right to run in the try that levelled the scores. What a finish.
It was certainly a game of two halves. For the first part Beckenham hardly allowed Charlton a look-in, with their man-of-the-match Hans Laud-Anderson seemingly over every loose ball and their backs finding space down the middle. A penalty apiece kept Park level for twenty minutes, but the tide turned when home number seven Jake Conway was yellow-carded and the visitors took control. Slick passing put winger Liam Greene into the corner and fly-half Louis Richards converted from touch, and almost immediately Park missed touch in the corner and then had a kick charged down for Richards to score again under the posts. A further penalty made it 3-20 at half-time.
Charlton Park were clearly a different team after the break, reinforced by the return of Conway and with the scrum and ball-carriers finally putting Beckenham under pressure. Coach's man-of-the-match Rob Saunderson's try from a driving maul made it 8-20, and Knuckey had a try disallowed for a forward pass while Richards missed an eminently kickable penalty to extend Beckenham's lead. The siege was on.
It was hard not to feel for Beckenham who probably thought that was two points thrown away, Park had a chance for an improbable win but the conversion went wide. All in all a very good if nail-biting way to spend a sunny Saturday afternoon. Congratulations to both teams for providing such a fantastic game, played in a great spirit, and of course particularly to the much changed Charlton Park team for a scarcely believable comeback.
Next week it's Horsham away. Phew.


Symbolic Nature of Elephant images represent Strength, Honor, Stability and Patience.
The symbolism of the Elephant's Trunk being Raised Up is a sign of Good Luck, Being Blessed with Fortune, and an Optimistic Spirit. Throughout Asian Cultures, the Elephant is a Majestic Animal symbolizing Strength and Astuteness, Patience and Perseverance. An image of an Elephant being ridden is a symbol of Happiness.
In South Asian Cultural Lore and History, Elephants were owned by Royalty, and were also thought to be one of the Vehicles of the Gods".
In Hindu Religion, Lord Ganesha is the Glorious God of Luck, Fortune and Plenty, Protection from Danger and Adversity. Lord Ganesha is called upon to Bless all New Projects and Endeavors; to Remove Their Obstacles.

Q: How to integrate and use Font Awesome with Objective-C or Swift in an Xcode project? So I am trying to use this font http://fortawesome.github.com/Font-Awesome/. I've added the font as a resource and put it in the plist file. Here's how I am using it:
[homeFeedButton.titleLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"fontawesome" size:8]];
NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%C", @"\f030"];

However this doesn't work. Does anyone know how to use this font in an Xcode project?

A: It is because your +[NSString stringWithFormat:] method contains the literal for a unichar, not an NSString, which is an object that uses %@, which is beside the point because literal'ing a literal is redundant.

A: You can just use the literal code string by affixing it with \u.
e.g. You can use \f030 in your iOS app using the following snippet.
[[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero] setText:@"\uf030"];

A: So, I can answer it for Swift & Objective C both. (using Swift 3.0 here)
Adding & configuring font-awesome file & Editing Storyboard
Just download font-awesome from here: fontawesome.io
and add .ttf to your project
Check the image below for more details...

Now the coding part
Swift 3.0
let iconUniChar: UniChar = 0xf113
textLabel.text = String(format: "%C", iconUniChar)

Objective C
_textLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%C", 0xf113];

And, if you are still facing the trouble here's the
entire source code

A: You can also use the library FontAwesome+iOS for iOS
Then you only need to use this code:
label.text = [NSString fontAwesomeIconStringForIconIdentifier:@"icon-github"];
// or:
label.text = [NSString fontAwesomeIconStringForEnum:FAIconGithub];

A: Below is the code to set image to a UIButton using FontAwesome
 UIButton *btnMenu = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
 btnMenu.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 40, 32);
 [btnMenu setTitle:@"\uf0c9" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
 [btnMenu setTitleColor:[UIColor whiteColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
 [btnMenu.titleLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"FontAwesome" size:16]];

A: NSLog your all font using following code and provide exact name.
 NSArray *familyNames = [[NSArray alloc] initWithArray:[UIFont familyNames]];
    NSArray *fontNames;
    NSInteger indFamily, indFont;
    for (indFamily=0; indFamily<[familyNames count]; ++indFamily)
    {
        NSLog(@"Family name: %@", [familyNames objectAtIndex:indFamily]);
        fontNames = [[NSArray alloc] initWithArray:
                     [UIFont fontNamesForFamilyName:
                      [familyNames objectAtIndex:indFamily]]];
        for (indFont=0; indFont<[fontNames count]; ++indFont)
        {
            NSLog(@"    Font name: %@", [fontNames objectAtIndex:indFont]);
        }
    }

A: In Swift:
Font Awesome Cheatsheet.
Tutorial on how to integrate the font called "Font Awesome" in your Xcode project.
Common Mistakes With Adding Custom Fonts to Your iOS App
let label = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 100))
label.font = UIFont(name: "FontAwesome", size: 40)
let myChar: UniChar = 0xF180
label.text = String(format: "%C", myChar)
self.view.addSubview(label)

A: BEST solution for FA with XCode:

*

*Copy the icon you want from http://fontawesome.io/cheatsheet/ (I mean mark and copy the icon itself):

*Then add a label to your storyboard, and on its properties:

*

*RED - Choose FontAwesome as family

*GREEN - Set the size you want

*BLUE - Paste here what you copied in the 1st step. (dont worry about the question mark - in the view you should see it properly).

That's it.
If you need to change the icon in the code - you can paste 1st step inside your code too:

A: Not sure you ever got this working properly, but there's now a couple of nice projects on github:
https://github.com/alexdrone/ios-fontawesome - which gives you a category for NSString which offers basic help using FontAwesome.
and https://github.com/leberwurstsaft/FontAwesome-for-iOS which gives you a NSString category with fontAwesomeIconStringForIconIdentifier  and also an UIImageView subclass: FAImageView

A: I was looking for the helper library for Swift3 and found this to be very simple and working solution https://github.com/Syndicode/FontAwesomeKitSwift3. It has animations that explain for novices like me how to include it and use quickly.

A: Here is an example for a cell's label text:
cell.textLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"FontAwesome" size:12];
cell.textLabel.text = @"\uf000";

Make sure you get the font name correct as suggested above.

A: not sure if this answer will be useful looking at the date you posted your question.... but to help someone maybe who is doing it at the moment,
[self.homefeedbutton setTitle:@"o" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [self.homefeedbutton.titleLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"fontawesome" size:30]];
setTitle:@"o" o is a name of the font, don't use the unichar, instead rename your font to something else preferable a letter, e.g if you check fontello.com , select icon, then click customize code tab, on top of you icon there is a small box, change it to any letter....
shout if its not clear enough , I will try to explain in a different way.

A: I have made a library in swift language with easy integration for UILabel, UIButton and UIBarButtonItem. Also supports Pods. Font Awesome Swift

A: This may help someone else... I had about 90% of Font Awesome icons working in my project, except a handful of them I couldn't get them to display correctly. They'd instead display a "..." icon instead.
After several hours of investigating unicode characters in Objective-C, I realised I was barking up the wrong tree! "..." isn't a FontAwesome icon, it's UIKit telling me that the frame of the UILabel is too small/font too large to display the text string! D'oh.

A: In case anyone is wondering, import the following in the .m file.
import "NSString+FontAwesome.h"

A: For using custom fonts make sure that the name of font which you have given in your plist and here,have the same real name.I mean the name of the font should be the same which in generally it have.Dont try to modify for the name.Check if the name of the font you are using is really the name of this font.
Thanks
Sanjay

A: FontAwesome font name comes in like so: FontAwesome
Try [UIFont fontWithName:@"FontAwesome" size:8]].
