"Sometimes, if you want to be happy, you've got to run away to Bath and marry a punk rocker. Sometimes you've got to dye your hair cobalt blue, or wander remote islands in Sicily, or cook your way through Mastering the Art of French Cooking in a year, for no very good reason."
Apparently, this is what Julia Child- famed chef, television 'how-to' girl, and author- taught 30 year old Long Island City secretary Julie Powell. And actually, by the end of 'Julie and Julia', I consider it a lesson taught to me, too.
Powell chronicles her traverse through every one of the 524 recipes of Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking with charm and, surprisingly- considering the backlash she encountered online and in the press recently (thanks, Google)- elegance.
I'm a total foodie, so I lapped up the evocative descriptions of Creme au Beurre a la Anglaise and Oeufs en Gelee as much as the profanity-laced, misanthropic story of one woman finding her place in the world through food, and following her heart.
The beginning of the novel seemed to me a little shaky, with trips down memory lane seemingly filling the empty pages when really, the book blooms by the middle when Powell finds her stride in exploring her job, her marriage, her unhappiness, and ultimately her salvation. So what I'm saying is- stick with it. It gets better.
Mostly inspirational, sort of life-affirming, and definitely hunger-inducing, one can't help but read this and come away with an enormous feeling of well-being.

Groundwater-sapping origin for the giant quebradas of northern Chile
Gregory D. Hoke, Bryan L. Isacks, Teresa E. Jordan, Jennifer S. Yu
Northernmost Chile is home to a well-preserved disequilibrium landscape of great antiquity. Contrasting drainage patterns are developed on the western slope of the Altiplano plateau. The oldest of these patterns is a now-relict parallel-patterned drainage network. In places a younger pattern, comprising a series of deeply incised canyons, or quebradas, crosscuts the older parallel-patterned network. These canyons show strong evidence of a groundwater-sapping origin. We hypothesize that the initiation of the canyon network resulted from changes in the hydrological regime related to a drying out of climate of the forearc and to the uplift of the Altiplano plateau.

Forest therapy guide explains the healing power of a walk in the woods.
Amos Clifford is the founder and director of the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides and Programs. Forest therapy has taken off in the U.S. as a way to lower stress and boost happiness using the healing power of nature. He explains why forest therapy works and what it's like to take part.
Amos Clifford is a forest therapy guide.
We now live in times where we're chronically stressed. As we were evolving, we developed this great capacity to respond to threats in our environment, the fight or flight response. In our culture, that kind of stimulation is constant. So our nervous systems are doing something they're not designed to do: They're keeping us constantly a little bit on edge.
The health consequences of that are big: Heart disease, high blood pressure, immune system issues.
The forest therapy that's evolving here is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, or "forest bathing," but we're not trying to replicate that practice. We're not exercising, we're moving slowly.
Our typical walks are about three hours. We go maybe a quarter to a half a mile in that time, so we're not hiking, you don't have to be fit. We choose really easy trails. The ideal scenario is a fairly nearby forest with a fairly thick and developed canopy, where it's quiet, the trail is very gentle, easy to get to, and there's a stream.
As long as you've got trees around and you're using these kinds of methods, you can have a good experience at home, in your garden. I've guided in city parks and had really great experiences. It's very adaptable.
It's really typical that about an hour into it, paradoxically, people will feel a moment of stress because they feel like, "Oh, I should be off doing something productive." We help them get through that.
Even in a three-hour walk, we see a reset of the nervous system, where people start coming back to a healthier baseline. They're away from their devices, they're not in traffic, they're not watching the 24-hour news cycle. They're very much in the present moment.
The body, in those circumstances, has this incredible capacity for healing itself.
On a psychological level, we find people become more relaxed, happier; they seem to have more of a sense of inhabiting their lives in a way that feels right to them.
People say that after one walk or a series of walks, they find it transformative in the sense that they start looking at their life in a new way. They sometimes make significant life decisions.
Why is nature so healing? It's home. We evolved out of the forests and there's something really deep in us that has a sense of recognition of forests. We seem to be wired for it.


If you'd rather skip the hassle and just have experts pick out the perfect snowboard, boots, and bindings setup for you then this is where you want to be!
In addition, purchasing a package usually results in savings of up to 50% over buying each piece of gear individually.
Only The House and evo have reasonable women's snowboard packages in stock, other retailers occassionally carry some but they're usually old or difficult to sell (read: crappy) gear so we've left them out. Of the two, The House has a much bigger selection and we highly recommend them for your snowboarding needs!

Il lago di Faetano è un piccolo lago artificiale aperto nel 1968 utilizzato per la pesca sportiva alla trota nei pressi del confine con l'Italia nel castello di Faetano vicino alla strada che collega Faetano con Rimini e non lontano dal torrente Marano che delimita anch'esso a est il confine con l'Italia.
Il lago è lungo 120 m e largo 30 m e ha una superficie di 0,0036 km² (0,36 ettari) e si trova a 40 m dall'Italia.
Nei pressi del lago si trova un punto di ristoro e la sede della Federazione Sammarinese Pesca Sportiva.

Welcome to Day 30 of my #100DaysofBulletJournalIdeas Project!
Ever feel like you get a lot of things done throughout the day but when you go to your Bullet Journal and check off the things you had written, you feel like you had done a lot more things?
Well, with the checkmark bullet, you can write down the things you did after the fact with a special bullet to see a well-rounded view of all the things you accomplished.
I use a checkmark bullet whenever I write down a task that I did after the fact. This way I can see the things I did that I had planned to do in contrast to the things I did without having planned them. It's a fun way to see all the things that I accomplished by being able to distinguish them easily.
Use a Checkmark Bullet to write down the tasks you already did. This way you can distinguish the tasks you had planned from the ones you hadn't written down but still did.
Sometimes it can feel like you are writing down a ton of tasks and sometimes only get one or two done, but if you also make a point of writing down the other things you did that you didn't have written down to begin with, it can help give you extra motivation and encouragement.
Plus, if you're like me and sometimes dive straight into the things you know you need to do and are excited to do, it gives you a chance to write down the things you did after the fact and attain that great feeling of getting to check off what you did.

The Paddock is a clean, cosy and peaceful cottage in a brilliant place for exploring West Cornwall. Feels really rural but within 10 minutes of supermarkets, takeaways etc! Very welcoming and helpful owners, leaving lights on for our late arrival, milk in the fridge and a cream tea!
Perfect for a few days away over New Year, with a lovely welcome from the owners. We enjoyed the quiet location and the closeness to the coast for some super walks. Very relaxing!
The Paddock is a well situated cottage near Penzance. Despite the few amenities within walking distance, there are a number of supermarkets, pubs and restaurants within a short drive. The cottage itself is certainly one of the nicest ones we have stayed in and was immaculately clean and tidy, as well as being well-stocked with kitchen utensils (something which can often be a bit of a bug bear!). Our two boys, aged 9 and 12 years, absolutely loved it and the fresh scones, jam and clotted cream went down incredibly nicely! It was also lovely to be somewhere that was so peaceful and quiet. Would highly recommend.
Another Excellent Stay in Cornwall at The Paddock. If your looking for a quiet location with an easy drive to all the local attractions then this will not disappoint... We're keen walkers, if your the same I would recommend Chapel Cove, Cadgwith, Cape Cornwall as well as trying both left and right sides of the coastal path from Prussia Cove.

Sydney and Melbourne house prices feel brunt of coronavirus downturn
By Jennifer Duke and Shane Wright
September 15, 2020 — 12.19pm
Australia's biggest property markets felt the brunt of the downturn from the coronavirus pandemic with Sydney and Melbourne property prices falling more than 2 per cent over the June quarter.
The only capital city to avoid a price fall was Canberra, where property values increased 0.8 per cent over the same period, quarterly data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics released on Tuesday shows.

Nationally residential prices saw a 1.8 per cent drop in the June quarter, but still increased 6.2 per cent in the year to June. All capital cities experienced annual increases except for Perth and Darwin, ABS head of prices statistics Andrew Tomadini said.
"The number of residential property transactions fell substantially in the eight capital cities during the June quarter 2020, due to the effects of COVID-19 on the property market," Mr Tomadini said.
In Sydney, house prices fell 2.6 per cent, while apartment prices fell 1.4 per cent. In Melbourne house prices dropped 2.8 per cent compared to a 1 per cent decline in apartment values.
The bureau reported the total value of the nation's housing stock dropped by $98.2 billion to $7.1 trillion during the quarter. It is now back to where it was in the September quarter of 2019.
The mean price of a residence in NSW slipped by almost $20,000 to $871,800 while in Victoria the mean price dropped by $17,500 to $736,800.
The average price of a dwelling in Western Australia dropped to $498,500, its lowest level since the bureau started collating these figures in 2011.
Minutes from the Reserve Bank board's September meeting showed members discussed the events playing out in the national property market.
They noted that while prices had fallen in Sydney and Melbourne, the cumulative fall in the national market had been less severe than the market's correction in 2018.
The rental market, however, was facing tougher headwinds.
"Rental supply had been boosted by short-term and holiday rentals being brought onto the long-term rental market, while demand had been depressed by the reduced flow of new migrants and a decline in the rate of household formation," the minutes showed.
"Rental vacancy rates had risen recently, and members noted that downward pressure on rents was unlikely to dissipate in the near term in either Sydney or Melbourne."
SQM Research data released on Monday found the vacancy rate in Melbourne increased to 3.4 per cent in August, up from 3.1 per cent the month before, with an extra 2145 homes sitting empty during stage four lockdowns in the city.
The Melbourne CBD is now at a record high vacancy rate with one in 10 homes empty, up from 8.8 per cent in July.
Sydney's vacancy rate remains the highest at 3.5 per cent, down 0.1 per cent from July. Sydney CBD has 12.9 per cent of homes vacant compared to a high of 16.2 per cent in May.
Latest monthly data from property research company CoreLogic recorded a fourth consecutive month of national house value falls in August, down 0.4 per cent, with Melbourne values dropping the most at 1.2 per cent. Sydney property prices declined 0.5 per cent over the same period.
An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated that the value of the nation's housing stock had dropped to $7.1 billion during the June quarter. It has been corrected to say it fell to $7.1 trillion.

Florida's tourism agency to trim staff after budget cut
The planned reduction represents 30 percent of the current year's $12.1 million in overall salaries.
[Photo from Visit Florida Inc.]
By News Service of Florida
Florida's tourism-marketing arm is looking to make staff cuts and put more of an emphasis on digital media instead of television, as it responds to a 34 percent reduction in state funding.
The Visit Florida Board of Directors will be asked Wednesday to approve several changes to address the Legislature's decision to reduce state funding from $76 million in the current fiscal year to $50 million during the year that starts July 1.
Shanna Pace, chief financial officer of Visit Florida, advised members of its Finance Committee on Tuesday staff funding faces an overall reduction by $3.65 million, though individual positions have not been targeted.
Pace said decisions about staffing will be made some time after the board meeting, which is being held at the Henderson Beach Resort and Spa in Destin.
"That is a tough, tough, tough decision," said Dan Rowe, a board member from Panama City.
The changes are part of across-the-board cuts that came out of a three-day executive leadership meeting to address the state funding reduction, which was driven by House leaders.
The House has maintained a hard-line stance against the agency in recent years, pointing to questionable past contracts and skepticism about the effectiveness of the tourism-marketing efforts.
During budget deliberations this spring, the House wanted to provide just $19 million for the agency. That would have been enough to cover expenses until Oct. 1, the date when Visit Florida would have been eliminated if it was not reauthorized under state law.
House Speaker Jose Oliva, R-Miami Lakes, backed off in the waning days of the session, after Gov. Ron DeSantis agreed to a Senate proposal of providing $50 million, rather than the $76 million the governor requested. The agreement also will keep Visit Florida afloat through next June.
Oliva said he accepted a request from the governor's office to keep Visit Florida in business for another year "so that he would have the opportunity to make an assessment of his own of how unnecessary it is."
The public-private agency anticipates with the reductions, projected revenue for the coming fiscal year will be $112.1 million, down $61.3 million from the current year that ends June 30. The total includes state money and private money.
Besides the staffing figure, the biggest hit will come in a $17.8 million reduction in strategic marketing, specifically media buys directed at winter and family travelers.
Staci Mellman, interim chief marketing officer, said there will have to be a bigger focus on digital and social media.
"We're just going to have to make our media dollars work harder for us," Mellman said. "Some of those high-value, high-dollar impacts, like television, are going to be off the table."
Also, among the proposals before the board are a reduction of $811,000 from the current year for agency production costs and a $43,000 decrease in promotional items for giveaways and sales events.
Events that won't be funded under the proposal include sales missions to China and Mexico.

Recap of tips 1-4 – Meals for Me and My Minis… and More!
Okay so before we head into tip #5, lets recap.
We are eating breakfast within an hour of waking up to get our metabolism started for the day.
We are drinking water as soon as we wake up, every hour throughout the day, and before we go to bed. We are adding extra water in for activity time and pregnancy or breastfeeding.
We are making our food look great by choosing colourful fruits and vegetables and putting them on a plate or in a bowl to look at before we eat.
We are eating an apple (or other crunchy fruit) to avoid blood sugars from dipping to low between meals.
Please keep practicing these and doing your best. They are not rules, but rather tips. Rules set us up for failure. Goals and tips set us up for striving for the healthiest we can be.
I am going to step it up a notch with the next set of tips this week. Get ready! Tip #5 is on its way this week!

2021 GMAT Score Chart and Percentiles Explained
Prospective grad students take the GMAT as part of the application process. Learn what the GMAT score chart is, how it changes and what a good GMAT score is.
Prospective graduate school students take the GMAT as part of their application process. It is an adaptive test whose goal is to test your knowledge and reasoning skills. The test serves as a predictor for graduate school success. As a standardized test, it allows graduate schools to compare applicants from across the United States and around the world. The GMAT score chart translates GMAT exam results to create a total GMAT score that schools use as part of the application process. In this article, you learn what the GMAT score chart is, how it changes over time and what a good GMAT score is.
What is the GMAT score chart?
The GMAT is administered by the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), and more than 2,100 universities around the world use it as part of their admissions process. This test has four sections — analytical writing, integrated reasoning, quantitative reasoning and verbal reasoning — and each tests an applicant's knowledge, skills and potential for academic success.
Scores for each section of the GMAT are:
Analytical writing: 0 to 6 (half-point intervals); average score 4.43
Integrated reasoning: 1 to 8 (single-digit intervals); average score 4.60
Verbal reasoning: 6 to 51 (below 9 and above 44 are rare); average score 27.26
Quantitative reasoning: 6 to 51 (below 7 and above 50 are rare); average score 40.70
Each section of the GMAT is individually scored, yet only the quantitative and verbal scores are included in a total GMAT score. The GMAT score chart creates a composite score that allows students to compare results against each other.
What do the GMAT score percentiles mean?
In addition to receiving a GMAT score, you'll also receive a percentile ranking. This ranking puts your score in perspective compared to other graduate school applicants. Your GMAT percentile ranking indicates the percentage of test takers you scored better than. For example, if your percentile ranking was 80%, that means that 20% scored better than you, while 80% scored worse than you. While your score will never change, your percentile ranking may change when the GMAT score charts are refreshed.
Does the GMAT score chart change?
Yes, GMAC updates the GMAT score chart each summer based on the previous three years' scores from all students who took the exam. By updating the scores annually and using data from multiple years, the GMAT score chart remains relevant without allowing one year's scores to skew the results up or down.
Will this affect my GMAT score?
Your GMAT score remains the same, no matter what happens with the GMAT score chart. However, your percentile ranking will most likely change. In general, average scores trend upward, which means your percentile ranking should decrease over time.
How to calculate your score with the GMAT score chart
GMAT scores are calculated in 10-point intervals. While the average GMAT score is 568.21, actual scores range from 200 to 800, with two-thirds of scores in the range of 400 to 600.
Your total GMAT score is based on the scores of your quantitative reasoning and verbal reasoning sections. Each section is graded not by the number of questions you miss but by the difficulty of the questions you miss. Because of that, it is entirely possible for two people to miss the same number of questions but have completely different scores.
To calculate your total GMAT score, use the chart below to align your quant and verbal scores. Start by finding your quant score on the vertical axis and then move horizontally until you find your verbal score on the horizontal axis.
As you can see, there are multiple combinations of quant and verbal scores that result in each total GMAT score. For example, a verbal 40 and quant 44 make for a total score of 690, as do a verbal 34 and quant 50.

Are all GMAT scores included in the score chart?
Each section of the GMAT is scored; however, only the quantitative and verbal scores are included in your total GMAT score. The integrated reasoning and essay scores do not affect your GMAT Score.
What is a good GMAT score?
The average total GMAT score is 568.21; however, total scores range from 200 to 800. On average, two-thirds of all test takers score between 400 and 600. The higher your GMAT score, the better.
A "good GMAT score" depends on which graduate school you are applying to. Most graduate schools publish the average GMAT score of students on their websites. To increase your chances of being accepted, your goal should be to score 20 points or higher than your target school's average score.
When do I receive my GMAT exam results?
Upon completion of your GMAT exam, you'll receive an unofficial score right away. This preliminary score does not include the results of your analytical writing assessment (AWA) and is not accepted by schools.
Your official score report is available to you and your designated score report recipients (schools that you're applying to) approximately three weeks after the test date. Your results are automatically sent to each school when they are available.
While you await your GMAT exam results, it's a good time to evaluate how you'll pay for your graduate degree. Juno has negotiated the guaranteed lowest private MBA loan rates for students. Signing up for Juno is free and takes less than a minute. Plus, there is no credit check. If you find a lower rate somewhere else, we'll beat it.
What happens if I don't like my GMAT Score?
When you don't like the unofficial score results from taking the GMAT, you can choose to cancel the results. A self-canceled score appears as a "C" on your official score report, which means schools will see that you took the test and decided to cancel your score. All attempts within the previous five years on your official score report are sent to your chosen schools. If you want to reinstate your canceled score, you have 60 days from the test date to change your mind. To reinstate your canceled score, there is a fee of $100.
Can I improve my GMAT score?
Yes. Many people take the GMAT multiple times when preparing for graduate school. In between tests, prospective students often read books, take prep courses and use other strategies to increase their GMAT scores.
Do my GMAT scores get shared with graduate schools?
When you submit your results to a graduate school, the school receives each of your GMAT exam scores from the past five years, your most recent AWA and your student profile. Your student profile includes information such as your GPA, undergraduate school, date of graduation, date of birth, gender and country of citizenship.
GMAT scores are one of the many tools universities use to compare applicants and predict their potential for academic success. The GMAT score chart translates a prospective graduate school student's exam results into a GMAT score. The chart also provides percentile rankings so universities and test takers can compare scores against those of others who have taken the exam. When the score chart is updated every summer, an applicant's test scores don't change, but their percentile ranking may go up or down.

Going Your Own Way or Playing Ball: Are You a Prewitt or a Warden?
"A man don't go his own way, he's nothing."
"Maybe back in the days of the pioneers a man could go his own way, but today you got to play ball."
Love that movie. It was back before Montgomery started to seem unwell.


After a long day, I look forward to imagining what delicious meal I will cook up that evening. I pick a protein to start with and the options from there are limitless - I think we can all agree that the best way to enhance a meal is with a flavorful sprinkle of your favorite herb or a pinch of your favorite spice.
The best part is that we can grow some of these favorites right in our own garden. Understanding the nature of these plants will lead us to a successful design and bountiful harvest.
We frequently hear these flavorful seasonings together as one term, "herbs and spices", which may lead to confusion when determining whether the item you are using is indeed an herb, or a spice. Language in the botanical sense differs from that in the culinary sense, as we are most commonly familiar with in discussion of fruits and vegetables.
In the culinary sense these distinctions are driven by taste, fruit is often considered sweet while vegetables are considered savory. Botanically speaking, many vegetables, and nuts, are understood to be fruit – defined as the seed-bearing structure of a plant.
Similarly, while herb, or herbaceous, in botany refers simply to a plant that grows without a woody stem, the culinary value refers to a seasoning gathered from the leaves and herbaceous stems of a plant. A spice is a seasoning acquired from a part of the plant other than leaves, including bark, root, and seed. Whether an herb or a spice, essential or aromatic oils are responsible for the sought after flavoring.
At Greater Newark Conservancy, we have a dedicated Herb Garden. Note that we do not have a specific Spice Garden, nor do many other gardens in our Northeastern region - and for good reason. Many spices grow in tropical or subtropical climates that could only be created artificially in our region, which may not be economical for the home gardener.
However, there are a small handful of common spices that can be grown here. We have included Coriandrum sativum in our herb garden, a plant whose leaves are the source of the herb cilantro. Letting that same plant flower and produce seed brings a welcome surprise – coriander! This little plant is a workhorse, providing us with both an herb anda spice. The different flavor in each of these seasonings is the result of a different essential oil compound produced in each part of the plant.
Another Apiaceae family member, Anethum graveolens, similarly doubles as an herb and a spice – dill weed and dill seed. Ginger root, Zingiber officinale, can be grown and harvested during our warm months but should be overwintered in a protected location, such as a basement, during the winter.
The first bed we have worked on showcases plants with similar foliage for easy comparison. We chose to highlight parsley, Petroselinum crispum, versus cilantro (coriander) and chives, Allium schoenoprasum, versus garlic chives, A. tuberosum, versus lemongrass, Cymbopogon spp. – last year a high school intern thought they were steeping lemongrass in water, only to realize they actually were using garlic chives! To complete the design, we are growing multiple cultivars of thyme and oregano underneath these focal plants.
If you are planning an herb garden of your own, a great source for finding rare and unusual plants is Well-Sweep Herb Farm in Port Murray, NJ.


"My eyes, they are full of wonder. I was born with eyes that have only seen the wonder in everything. Eyes that see lights in the trees, and magic in the air. This wonder is what I put into the world."
Last week I had surgery, it was my 15th surgery to treat Endometriosis. Everything went well and there was lots of cuddles, art, movies, and lots of reading during my time down. As we are entering the last week of school we are gearing up for Summer break. For me the hard part is trying to entertain the kids, but keeping things simple. I've always thought of myself as a fun mom, but I've also realized that I am a home-body. For me you don't have to go spend money and go places to have fun. I feel like sometimes we can enjoy ourselves more in the simplest of things.
The kids have been great as I have been trying to heal. They each have found ways to keep themselves busy and letting their imaginations run wild. Sometimes I remember the childhood I knew. Playing outside until dark, reading books until my eyes hurt, board games with lots of laughing, and entering and creating imaginary worlds. I felt a sense of wonder, I had dreams that had no limits. I try everyday for my kids to live a life of wonder.


When Wendy and I are chatting about Social Media strategies with small businesses, time is always part of the conversation. Generally it involves someone (me) whining about not having enough time to post on a regular basis to their business Social Media accounts. Although we are all strapped for time, and could always use more… don't be tempted to shortcut your Social Media posting by using automated tools.
Social Media automated tools appear to be time savers, because you can often write one post, and distribute it to several different Social Media platforms at the same time. Even though these tempting tools seem to be time savers - the overall reach of your audience will be limited by creating posts via a tool. And since the point of Social Media is to distribute your content far and wide across the internet … limiting the distribution of your posts, renders your entire goal moot in the first place!
We have witnessed first-hand that status posts on Facebook that have been posted using automated tools actually decrease the overall reach by as much as 5000%. This means that Facebook is intentionally restricting and limiting the distribution of posts made via automated systems.
If you're going to have a Social Media strategy, be sure to include enough time to post directly to the Social Media platforms. Anything else is just wasted effort.


He was appointed as the President of the National Congress in 1920.
One of the legendary triumvirate – Lal-Bal-Pal ( Lala Lajpat Rai, Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Bipin Chandra Pal) of India's independence struggle, Lala Lajpat Rai dedicated his life in a self-less service to the nation.
On his birth anniversary, here are some interesting facts about his extraordinary life and fight for freedom.
Lala Lajpat Rai was born to the Munshi Radha Krishna Azad and Gulab Devi in Punjab on 28 January, 1865.
His father was a scholar of Persian and Urdu language.
He completed his schooling from the Government Higher Secondary School in Rewari where his father was an Urdu teacher.
He attained a degree in law from the Government College at Lahore in 1880.
Five years later, he started his legal practice in Hissar. But he wanted to devote his life to social service.
Rai became an ardent follower of Swami Dayananda Saraswati, the founder of the Arya Samaj. Dayananda Saraswati helped Rai to establish the nationalistic Dayananda Anglo-Vedic School.
After Dayananda's death, Lala Lajpat Rai worked hard to develop the Anglo-Vedic colleges and educational institutes.
He was appointed the member of the Hissar municipality and later became its secretary.
Lala Lajpat Rai entered the politics to contribute in India's struggle for independence in 1888.
During the Allahabad's Congress session, Rai was one among the eighty delegates whose heroic speech made waves in the Congress circle.
He shifted to Lahore from Hissar to continue his legal practice at the Punjab High Court along with serving as the freedom fighter.
He participated actively against the partition of Bengal and launched Swadeshi campaign.
In 1907, he was imprisoned in Mandalay jail for six months as his revolutionary activities caused riots in Lahore and Rawalpindi.
After getting out of the jail, he re-entered the Indian National Congress in 1912.
He served as one of the delegates of the Congress in England, two years later.
Lala Lajpat Rai planned to stay in England for six months. However, this was disrupted due to the outbreak of the First World War.
Consequently, he moved to America on a self-imposed exile. In America he fought against the pitiable state of India and Indians through his revolutionary speeches and books.
He initiated the Indian Home Rule League and a journal 'Young India' which dealt with the significance of Indian culture and freedom of the country.
After returning to India, he was appointed as the President of the National Congress in 1920.
He established the 'Servants of the People Society', a non-profit welfare organization, in Lahore.
Owing to his increasing popularity, British considered him a threat to their rule. Therefore, Rai was imprisoned in 1921 for two years.
After returning from jail, he acknowledged the communal problem as a rising threat to the freedom struggle.
Although he was a devout Hindu who was strongly influenced by Arya Samaj yet he actively worked to bring Hindu and Muslim together.
In 1928, he led a peaceful protest against the British's Simon Commission. The Panel aimed to discuss the required Constitutional reforms for the country but there was not even a single Indian member in it.
He introduced a legislative assembly resolution for boycotting the British and demanded complete freedom for India.
He was injured in the British's lathi charge from which he never recovered completely.
I declare that the blows struck at me today will be the last nails in the coffin of British rule in India.
The 'Lion of Punjab', Lala Lajpat Rai died due to a cardiac arrest on 17 November, 1928.
In 1897, he had founded the Hindu Relief Movement to provide help to the famine-stricken people and prevented them falling into the clutches of the missionaries.
In his article, the Kayastha Samachar (1901), he called for technical education and industrial self-help.
In the wake of the Swadeshi movement (anti-partition of Bengal. 1905-08), Lajpat Rai and Bal Gangadhar Tilak set up the National College in Lahore, where Bhagat Singh studied.
As he took much interest in the condition of the working class people, he was also elected as the President of the All India Trade Union Congress.
He also founded the Punjab National Bank and the Lakshmi Insurance Company.
In the memory of his mother who died of Tuberculosis, Rai established a trust to come up with a hospital for treating women suffering from Tuberculosis. The hospital was opened in 17 July 1934 and named Gulab Devi Chest Hospital.

Мицуна, мизуна, японская капуста ( ssp. nipposinica) — съедобное растение, овощная культура, подвид репы из рода капусты  семейства капустные (Brassicaceae).

Распространение
Родиной растения считается Япония, где она является национальным блюдом. На побережье Тихого океана растение культивируется с XVI века. В Северной Америке мицуна известна под названиями «зеленая горчица» и «японский зеленый салат».

Описание
Листья растения имеют ярко-зелёный или красновато-бурый цвет, вытянуты и сильно изрезаны в хаотичном порядке. Кочан не образуется. Листья собраны в розетку. Высота взрослого растения может доходить до 40—50 сантиметров. Цветы небольшого размера и имеют светло-желтоватый цвет. Цветонос появляется на второй год вегетации, но у некоторых экземпляров при длинном световом дне цветонос может появиться уже в первом сезоне.

Значение и применение
Растение неприхотливое и скороспелое. Может выращиваться в открытом грунте, теплицах и домашних условиях. Через 30—45 дней после посева мицуна готова к употреблению. Также из-за внешнего вида мицуна применяется для оформления клумб в ландшафтном дизайне.

Мицуна используется в кулинарии и имеет пряно-перечный вкус. Растение богато витаминами Е, А, К, В1, В2, В5, В9, РР и аскорбиновая кислота, бета-каротин и холин, микроэлементам и минеральными веществами, среди которых селен, магний, железо, натрий, марганец, медь, цинк, фосфор, калий и кальций.

Clawdeen is at the Coffin Bean, the place where ghouls hang out after school. She is wearing a light and dark purple diagonal striped dress with gold buckles on the darker stripes. The dress is accentuated by a gold collar and a black & gold zipper stripe down the front. On her feet are purple shoes with gold laces and extra rows of eyelets.

In the map collection at Uppsala University Library there is a unique topographical view and map of Mexico City and its surroundings dating from around 1550.
When the Spanish conquistadors under Fernando Cortez (Hernán Cortés) conquered this area in 1521 it was called Tenochtitlán and it was the Aztecs' capital. The city was founded in the 14th century and was on an island in the salt lake Texcoco. Eye witness accounts of the conquest describe Tenochtitlán as one of the world's greatest and most amazing cities.
Following the conquest, the central parts of the city were pulled down and Spanish architecture replaced the Aztecs' temples. However the street layout remained virtually intact.
On the map the new buildings can be seen and at the centre, the cathedral (Iglesia Major) can be made out standing by the huge square which is still a central place in Mexico City (La Plaza de la Constitución).
It is still possible to read part of the dedication to Emperor Charles V in the lower right hand corner of the map. In the dedication you can also see parts of the name Santa Cruz, which is the reason why the Royal Cosmographer in Seville, Alfonso de Santa Cruz(1505-1567) was long thought to have been the cartographer.
Later research however claims that the map was painted by a person from Tenochtitlán/Mexico, an Aztec with European schooling. The construction and content of the map show that the map-maker was well versed with the place and its inhabitants. Alfonso de Santa Cruz visited South America, but never Mexico.
The numerous symbols on the map (heads, animals, rings, stars etc.) represent place-names in Nahuatl - the Aztec language. The map also gives detailed information about the social and working life of the area and about animal and plant life. In this way the map gives us not only a geographical description of the area but also a rich picture of everyday life in Mexico City in the 16th century.
The map is 75 cm high and 114 cm wide. It is painted in green, blue and grey on two joined pieces of parchment. Roads and canals are marked in brown and light blue. The frame of the map consists of ornamental foliage painted in blue on a red background.
We do not know for certain how the map came to Sweden. One theory is that it was purchased at the end of the 17th century by the Swedish linguist and traveller Johan Gabriel Sparwenfeld during his stay in Spain and that it was donated to Uppsala University Library at a later date.


MS17-010? - zerosum0x0 Derbycon 2018 (Hacking Illustrated Series InfoSec Tutorial Videos) MS17-010?
MS17-010 is the most important patch in operating systems history. The ultimate high profile and damaging attacks, such as WannaCry, NotPetya, and Olympic Destroyer, have taken advantage of the vulnerabilities patched in MS17-010. Created by Equation Group, and leaked by Shadow Brokers, the ETERNAL family of exploits provide the most reliable and creative ways for remote code execution on Windows ever performed. Unnoticed for over 20+ years, the mechanisms behind these exploits has only been scratched at the surface by researchers, and remains an enigma for most. Take years of research into Windows internals and the SMB protocol and cram it into 45 minutes. You simply can't. But this talk will try. Descriptions of full reverse engineering of internal structures and all historical background info needed to understand how the exploit chains for ETERNALBLUE, ETERNALCHAMPION, ETERNALROMANCE, and ETERNALSYNERGY work will be provided. Get detailed information about the historical and technical context for these vulnerabilities that will haunt us still for years to come.
zerosum0x0 is the author of all MS17-010 ETERNAL Metasploit exploit modules and was the first to reverse engineer the DOUBLEPULSAR backdoor. He has taught workshops on Windows internals at DEF CON and to US government agencies.

I have had CD for 30+ years and have suffered numerable setbacks in every part of my life due to CD.
I have been through standard medical treatments some of which had no effect and others which had some effects but none were able to put the CD in remission.
I tried alternative therapies too, but none were able to maintain good health. I was slowly losing my life to CD, but I was persisted in my search of a new treat.
I happened upon an article on helminth therapy on the web and read all I could about theory behind it. It made sense, and I began my search to obtain some of these little intestinal creatures.
They were expensive and a risk that might not be rewarded but I had little to lose. I ordered 10 units x 500 porcine whipworms from Ovamed and took 500 every 2 weeks and prayed for a sign.
I was in university and doing well academically but not physically. 1 month past then at 6 weeks i noticed my bowel movements decreasing and stools firming. I was on 60 mg of prednisone at the time and began decreasing the dosage.
I began this treatment in early October of 2006 and December I was almost off prednisone and continuing to feel better by the month. 2007 New Year Celebration was the best as I was of prednisone and feeling great! It seem to good to be true but it was happening.
The doctor I was seeing did not endorse the therapy but my GI doc said the science made sense and it was worth a shot, which gave me assurance that my own research and taking charge of my CD empowered me to take this risk.
I have continued with the helminth therapy for over 5 years and am living a life rich and full thanks to these seemingly unfriendly creatures.
At the time I began my journey with helminthes I had nothing left to lose. My life was one of constant suffering and I was isolated from all the made me feel a part of society and life.
I encourage all those who have the means to do your own research and inform yourself about the "hygiene hypothisis."
I am not saying it will work for everyone with CD but it will work for many. The ongoing research clearly proves helminth therapy works to stop CD in its tracks.
I was and am willing to take risks as with all medical and experimental treatments have. So far I have had no side effects from the therapy after 5 years of continued therapy.
Helminths and humans have had a symbiotic relationship, which has evolved over thousands of years. We have become dependent on each other just as human are part of the web of life and nature. Please consider this therapy. Ovamed and Autoimmune Therapies both are a reliable source for helminths, which I use. It makes sense; please read the research. It is easily found on the internet. :) Love and Light to you all.
There is a lot of published research on helminth therapy available on the internet.
Although, not as many success stories about using helminth therapy, for those lucky enough to find out about it.
suffering for years on end.
systems, then you can decide if it is worth a try.
Comments for Helminths For Crohn's?
Reply To Helminths For Crohn's Disease.
Thank you TC for sharing your story. I post all of the stories and give a chance for everyone to share.
I am not advertising this kind of treatment in any way. The reason is because I am totally unaware of any benefits. I will read up more and will form my opinion after a long research. I always resarch well before recommending anything to my readers.
But honestly I would be scared to try it. Maybe that is because I healed my Crohn's disease with Functional medicine method and I am not suffering. I strongly believe in Functional medicine healing method and it's very cost effective.
I helped many, many Crohn's patients to get better. I know that I can help many more and now I have a spring consultation SPECIAL. You can take advantage of it, just read Functional Medicine page, click HERE.


Do you find yourself losing that morning mojo by mid-afternoon? You may want to consider trying one or all of these four key tips to not only put the pep back in your step, but also to improve your immune function and increase your overall health. The right balance of carbohydrates, protein and fat combined with the proper herbal supplementation, can help to keep your mood and energy levels high throughout the day!
One in four Americans starts their day without eating breakfast, causing them to feel sluggish and fatigued throughout the day. People who skip breakfast also tend to have higher cholesterol levels, making them more susceptible to developing heart disease over time. It's no wonder they call it the most important meal of your day! For a healthy breakfast meal, oatmeal or buckwheat are options that can energize your body and provide health benefits for cholesterol, blood pressure, blood glucose metabolism, satiety, and the gastrointestinal system. Add in some blueberries for a boost of antioxidant protection and flavor. Along with your balanced breakfast, drink a glass of hot water with lemon to help stabilize your acid levels, which have been building up throughout your slumber.
Between meals, noshing on healthy snacks will help you boost your energy levels and keep your metabolism revved all day long. Snacks like fresh apple slices and bananas are high in vitamin C, antioxidants and fiber, as well as other vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates that send a quick energy boost to your body's systems. Certain types of nuts are also healthy options for quick energy-boosting snacks. While some people may be resistant to eating nuts due to their high fat content, it is important to note that most nuts contain unsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which help to decrease bad cholesterol levels and sustain healthy levels of good cholesterol. Eating small servings of raw, high-protein walnuts, hazelnuts, peanuts, Brazil nuts or pecans give you healthy sources of potassium, magnesium, iron, calcium, fiber, vitamin B, vitamin E, and thiamin, which keep you satisfied and energized.
Drinking water instead of soda, coffee or sugar-filled fruit juices is important for maintaining your energy levels and a healthy body weight. Water plays an important role in your bodily functions and processes, helping to remove waste products, carry nutrients, and regulate your body temperature. Drinking purified water throughout the day also helps to relieve fluid retention and maintain healthy bowel functions. To determine how much water you need per day, divide your body weight (in pounds) by two and sip on that many ounces!
Now to get a little scientific on you: Cellular energy is generated in the mitochondria, which are tiny structures within each cell that turn nutrients into energy. When you are under stress, your body releases a surge of hormones like adrenaline, norepinephrine and cortisol, which can damage the mitochondria and inhibit the cell's ability to produce those beneficial chemicals. Herbal supplements like ginseng can enhance the body's ability to deliver oxygen to cells and reduce oxidative damage that can harm the mitochondria. Ginseng also naturally relaxes blood vessels, which increases oxygen delivery to cells throughout the body.
So if you suddenly feel your forehead hitting your desk by 3pm, take a second look at your daily habits and fine-tune your routine. You will discover that these small changes will go a long way in keeping you peppy and purposeful all day long!
