India will give befitting response if its pride is hurt: Rajnath
Thursday - January 14, 2021 10:15 pm , Category : INDIA
Bengaluru, Jan 14 (IANS) Indian would give a befitting response if its pride is hurt by any super power, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh asserted at a military function here on Thursday.
"If any super power hurts our national pride, our soldiers are capable of giving a fitting response though we do not want a war," Singh said at the fifth Armed Forces Veterans' Day here, without naming any country amid the border standoff with China since June 2020.
Noting that India stood for peace and friendly relations with all the countries, especially in the region, Singh said the nation is against armed conflict and wants to maintain peace, which is its hoary culture.
"India is for protecting one's security but not in favour of war though our troops are capable of defending the country's borders," reiterated Singh.
Lauding the soldiers for eliminating hundreds of terrorists intruding from across the western border, Singh said they have also displayed bravery in protecting the country in the northern border facing China.
Earlier, Singh and Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat placed wreaths and paid homage at the War Memorial at the Indian Air Force (IAF) training command in the city. IAF and Indian Navy officers also laid wreaths as a mark of respect to the war heroes.
"Singh and Rawat interacted with the military veterans and martyrs' kin and members of ex-servicemen organisations," a defence official said in a statement.
Indian armed forces celebrate Veterans Day on January 14 every year in recognition of the services rendered by the country's first Field Marshal, K.M. Cariappa, who retired on the same day in 1953.
Cariappa (1899-1993), who hailed from Karnataka's Coorg (Kodagu), led the Indian forces on the western front during the first India-Pakistan war in 1947 as the army's first Commander-in-Chief. He also fought in World War II.
The only other Field Marshal, Sam Manekshaw (1914-2008), also retired on January 14, 1973.
Entry for the event was restricted due to Covid-induced curbs to contain the pandemic spread.

How the plan to vivisect India was foiled (Book Review)


How does time change affect diabetes?
It is that time of year again when we shift our clocks to "spring forward." The good news about this is longer days ahead with more sunlight. But that first week can be a little challenging. Skipping ahead an hour can make you feel a little groggy the next few days; not to mention it can play games with your blood sugar.
Our bodies are finely-tuned machines. In the morning when it is time to wake up, our body knows to release cortisol, a hormone that is released in response to stress. Back in the day it was vital for helping us escape from a chase with a tiger, but today it helps us get out of bed. That release of cortisol triggers an increase of glucose (sugar) production by the liver. Again, fueling your energy for that chase with the tiger. When these things happen, for people with diabetes, it creates a need for an increase in insulin to level out your blood sugar. "Optimally performing cortisol follows a pattern called the 'cortisol curve'. In a healthy curve, cortisol is high in the morning and tapers off through the day and evening — like a slow-release energy pill that wears off just in time for bed," says functional-medicine practitioner Sara Gottfried, MD.
Once we are in a routine of waking up and going to bed around the same time each day, our bodies know when to release these hormones, and your medication has been timed accordingly. Now, when we change time, it may throw you off a little - especially that first week. It may take a some time to get your body back in balance. Give it a week or two; your body needs time to adjust, and it should. However, "If your energy starts to run low during familiar activities, it could be a warning that your cortisol pattern is disrupted. Catching more colds or having a shorter emotional fuse are other early signs," says Filomena Trindade, MD, of the Institute for Functional Medicine. Talk to your healthcare team if you are experiencing any of these signs.

Q: how to use some features from another app and use it in my app? i want to create small app witch scan texts from camera and return it in (Edit Text)
this feature(scan texts from camera)is available in Google translate app
so how can i use it in my app ?

A: If the app is set up to do so, you can call startActivityForResult and it will launch, run, and return the result to you via onActivityResult.  If the app isn't set up to work that way, then you can't do it at all.

A: Google is presumably using the same object/character recognition software in the Android Translate app as they do with Google Goggles. There is no official API available from Google to use this service, though you could see if Google Drive's OCR capabilities could be applied to your case.
There are other OCR libraries available, such as Tesseract (https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/).
You could also look for other image recognition APIs, Camfind (http://camfindapp.com) seems to be an option.

Expert predicts O'Rourke's PAC campaign promise, donation numbers make win impossible
Madlin Mekelburg
AUSTIN — Republican U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz raised $2 million between July and September for his re-election campaign, slightly more than his Democratic challenger, U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke of El Paso.
O'Rourke raised $1.7 million during the same period and has $2.8 million on hand heading into the next quarter, a $1 million bump for his campaign bank account since June. Cruz has nearly $6.4 million on hand.
While O'Rourke surprised political experts by outraising incumbent Cruz during his first reporting period of the campaign — collecting nearly $2.1 million to Cruz's $1.6 million — the same experts say the latest numbers are more realistic indicators of what to expect from his campaign moving forward.
"At this stage in the game, O'Rourke and his team like having support they can tangibly point to and credibly claim that they're making strides to connect to people and put infrastructure in place, but in the long term, collecting donations on a small scale will continue to produce moderate but not outstanding campaign figures," said Brandon Rottinghaus, a political science professor at the University of Houston.
He added that O'Rourke's decision to not take money from political action committees and a lack of large donations to his campaign make victory over Cruz impossible.
O'Rourke, 45, officially launched his Senate campaign in March, pledging not to collect any campaign contributions from PACs and to keep his campaign efforts focused on Texas.
While he is widely considered an underdog in the race, O'Rourke has gotten attention for his "seat-of-the-pants" style campaign that relies on Facebook's live video feature and intimate town hall meetings in cities across Texas.
Cruz won his Senate seat in 2012 and last year campaigned for the Republican presidential nomination against Donald Trump, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and a host of other candidates. He previously served as solicitor general of Texas, working under then-Attorney General Greg Abbott.
More:Beto O'Rourke raises $2.1 million, more than incumbent Ted Cruz
Mark Jones, a political scientist at Rice University, said while Cruz didn't raise a shocking amount during the latest quarter, his pool of potential campaign contributors is larger than O'Rourke's, because the Democrat has pledged not to take PAC money.
"Cruz will always maintain an advantage over O'Rourke because he has the ability to tap a host of resources, from Republican donors to PACs, to a variety of other interest groups, if he feels that O'Rourke is getting too close," Jones said, adding that O'Rourke's haul is "very good, but to really introduce himself to Texans and challenge Cruz, he's going to need more money."
Jones said Cruz will likely double down on fundraising efforts in January, when the election is in closer view.
Cruz's campaign said October's numbers reflect his "consistent fundraising strength."
"Sen. Cruz is taking on every fight that Texas voters elected him to take," Cruz spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said in a statement. "And he will continue to lead the charge to ensure promises made to the voters are promises kept."
O'Rourke also celebrated his fundraising numbers and said seeing such support for his mission gives him "more confidence and strength going into the next 13 months of the campaign."
"I think it's extraordinary and beyond anything we could have expected or hoped for," O'Rourke said in an interview. "To be able to do this against somebody who spent the last five years building a national fundraising base for his presidential campaign, to be able to do this against an incumbent, I think, is extraordinary and it says less about me than it does about Texas, because most of that support we enjoyed came from Texas."
Since O'Rourke's campaign launched, 76 percent of his contributions came from in-state donors. All the money he raised between July and September came from 32,969 individual contributions.
During the same period, Cruz's campaign received 25,977 individual contributions from 17,941 unique donors. A percentage for Cruz's in-state donors was not available.
O'Rourke's campaign celebrated the fact that he drew nearly 7,000 more individual donations than Cruz, pointing to the difference as a "show of strength" for his campaign.
More:'One of the most powerful moments in my life,' O'Rourke says of seeing Harvey's destruction
Jones said O'Rourke's commitment to only accepting individual contributions could create a base for future support.
"Every individual donor who gives to him under the limit is someone their campaign can go back to in a very effective way to tap for more funds," Jones said. "The more individuals who come out in favor of him by giving money are a ready and waiting reservoir for future campaign contributions once we hit 2018."
But for Rottinghaus, the numbers don't add up.
"This is a race that's going to cost $50 million if you want to unseat a popular incumbent Republican," he said. "O'Rourke does not seem to be on pace to generate that money. To be frank, if he's not taking big checks in general or specifically from PACs, it's going to be impossible to get there."

Alcohol advertising in Australia is currently self-regulated under a scheme managed by the alcohol and advertising industries.
The Alcohol Beverages Advertising Code (ABAC) is the alcohol-specific advertising code of practice.
Making a complaint is difficult, confusing, and the process moves slowly in comparison with the fast-moving world of advertising campaigns.
In the Alcohol Advertising Review Board's view, the current system has consistently failed to ensure that alcohol is promoted responsibly and that young people's exposure to alcohol advertising is minimised.
The Alcohol Advertising Review Board was developed in response to the weaknesses identified in the existing self-regulatory system. We want to make the complaints process as easy as possible for the community, and we endeavour to reach a commonsense outcome that is socially responsible.

When we ask why, it is because we are trying to make sense of our contexts, our situation, of someone else's behaviour. Sometimes, asking Why, when the answer is difficult to find, can disempower us in taking action and progressing with our work, personal lives and our relationships. But why?
Taking courage to lead others is mainly an individual endeavour, but how can leaders enable their colleagues and teams to prepare for change and develop their own courage, especially for change they do not know is coming their way? How can leaders help overcome the impact of their courage, on others?

2006.09.29 - MTV News - Guns N' Roses Hint At Democracy's Arrival, Add Tour Dates
by Blackstar Sun Feb 21, 2021 9:35 pm
GUNS N' ROSES HINT AT DEMOCRACY'S ARRIVAL, ADD TOUR DATES
BAND ANNOUNCES 36 NORTH AMERICAN DATES WITH CRYPTIC NOTE ABOUT LONG-AWAITED CHINESE DEMOCRACY LP.
ARCHIVE-CHRIS-HARRIS
For months, Guns N' Roses ringmaster Axl Rose has been saying — in radio interviews, at press junkets and even at journalist-thick parties — that Chinese Democracy would surface this year. The band's decade-in-the-making LP would also be its first album of original material since the 1991 dual releases of Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II.
Rose has been adamant that 2006 would see the much-anticipated LP's release, and in February, several songs said to be from the Chinese Democracy sessions leaked online.
But after many broken promises, it's possible that this time, Rose isn't fibbing. In a press release issued Friday morning (September 29) regarding the band's upcoming Chinese Democracy North American tour — which is scheduled to launch October 20 in Jacksonville, Florida — Guns N' Roses' management, Sanctuary Artist Management, cryptically hints that Axl's opus might surface before year's end.
"The only comment at this time is that there are 13 Tuesdays left between now and the end of the year," reads the release, referring to the day of the week new albums hit stores.
While the fate of Chinese Democracy remains uncertain, one thing's for sure: Axl's current incarnation of Guns will be rather busy for the remainder of this year, with a total of 36 U.S. and Canadian dates mapped out as part of the tour's first leg. The lineup includes keyboardists Dizzy Reed (the sole holdover from the Use Your Illusion-era lineup) and Chris Pitman, ex-Replacements bassist Tommy Stinson, former Primus drummer Brian "Brain" Mantia and three guitarists: erstwhile Nine Inch Nails member Robin Finck, ex-Psychedelic Furs axeman Richard Fortus and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, who was hired this spring to replace long-departed virtuoso Buckethead.
In May, Rose and the rest of his Guns took the stage at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom for the first time in more than three years. GN'R played four sold-out warm-up gigs at the iconic venue before heading overseas for a summer's worth of European festival appearances.
During the fourth and final New York concert, Rose shocked his fans by orchestrating a much-rumored reunion with former GN'R guitarist Izzy Stradlin.
On Saturday, Guns N' Roses headlined Los Angeles radio station KROQ's sixth annual end-of-summer Inland Invasion festival at the Hyundai Pavilion in Devore, California, delivering a set that included an instrumental cover of Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful". The show featured a few guest appearances, including a cameo by ex-Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach, who joined Axl for "My Michelle."
Bach has been tapped to open all the upcoming tour dates, with Papa Roach taking the stage just before Guns N' Roses on eight of the trek's stops between the October 20 launch and the November 3 date in Huntington, West Virginia. Additional bands will be recruited for Roach's slot, but an official announcement concerning those openers has not been made yet.
"We had an amazing tour in Europe this summer and last week's shows here in the U.S. were great," Rose said in the press release. "It's been a long time getting here, but we look forward to coming to your town and having a lot of fun."
Tickets for most of the run's gigs go on sale Saturday.

Here is a very interesting Wenger Soldier configuration Alox from 1975. This does not have the WK+ stamp on the emblem or anywhere else on it. We know that these knives were sold private and for the civilian market too. Official soldier knives for the Swiss army contingents should have a Wk+ stamped scale. The Wenger Si or standard issue was sold at different markets. I do not believe all knives used in the Swiss Army with this configuration had the Wk+ stamp.
This Wenger knife has been used and at one point the tip of the blade must have been damaged and therefore re-profiled. It is done nice and it is very sharp. I do not believe it had these damages to begin with and therefore rejected from the depot demands. It is normal to find knives that's been abused or used hard. Re-profiled SAKs does not have any high value anymore but when re-profiled like this you get a lot of use out of it still. It now got character, usability and a story with. All the other functions are ok and it's been re-profiled in a way that the tip does not come outside the handle when closed in. In other words it will be possible to carry it in a pocket. I gave it a good cleaning and some multi-tool oil for the best functionality. I really enjoy seeing a rescued SAK like this and it is about reusing and resurrecting it intelligently. All the springs are intact and it is another confirmation about the sturdy design these have.
Notice the extra rounded rivet/pin used at this time window.
One of the biggest problems and reasons for damages are grinding-wheels. The electrical wheel require practice and training. It is far better to use a stone when sharpening at first. The reasons for why the tip can get bent, broken or displaced is prying with it. There is a limit for how sturdy the tip section is.
The Standard Issue is specially designed for Soldiers in the field and look at this beast of a flat screwdriver with cap opener, that also got a wire scraper function. There are no reasons for prying hard with the blade tip when you have this to use. It is 2,7mm thick and that is a world of difference. There is no play in any function on this Si.
There are few places that can compare to the military when it comes to hard use and wear on equipment. This is many times unavoidable because of the training and exercises. The 93mm Soldier knife is specially developed from the 93mm Pioneer Range with some changes for the Soldiers in the field. Therefore it is also an excellent outdoors, sports and utility tool for a wide range of tasks ahead.
I have seen some military used knives in this 93mm category but also the 108mm and 111mm SAKs. It is hard to imagine how such damages can appear. One of the factors that I believe are very neglected in many armies across the world is correct sharpening of the issued knives. It does not take an expert to suggest that many soldiers find an electrical wheel and use this for sharpening their knives. The result is that the wheel is to coarse and the blade jumps up and down too. I was lucky to find this issue that's been re-profiled nice so it is usable. I do not know if it was damaged in the military or in the civilian life. Regardless it is typically in both worlds. I have seen knives used in the military in Norway too and they are not had it any easier here. I have seen some different categories that is in very good condition. The one big problem is that the knife blade has been sharpened on a coarse wheel with the result of catastrophic edge damage. It is too bad because it was only a bit dull and need a touch up on the edge to restore it to full functionality and someone wanted to do the fast and easy route by using a coarse wheel on it.
Different armies across the world use several categories of Swiss Army Knives without the typical military markings. Some can use the German Army Knives 108mm and the later 111mm types. Victorinox designed the 111mm services range especially for the Services to be strong as possible. In is not uncommon that one country's army can use several knives and this can include standard sheath knives that most people can buy. Typically when it comes to utility and multi-tools it is the utility purpose that is at hand. It is for use in the field. Many times there can be official knives ordered and made for the army or military in one country. Like I said it is not all knives that are official because some countries order privately avoiding information leaking to other countries on what tools one department or branch use. There are several parts in a modern army that require certain tools for equipment. The 93mm Victorinox and Wenger Alox 1961 type with variants was used from 1961 until 2008. That does not mean that the Alox 93mm SAKs category did not continue around the world for use. Several military branches use Victorinox and former Wenger SAKs long before 1961 for their designated branches and departments. This continues until today. It can be knives used in aero planes and for pilot's survival packs just to mention one.


Аннотация: This book describes the design of a speech-based assistant nased on a set of intelligent agents and demonstrates how the content contextually cues the significance of visually hidden information, and how the delivery impacts on the social acceptability of a speaking system, including attentive interruptions, linguistic variation and politeness. These results led to the abstraction of design guidelines for speech-based systems that purport to be humanized in nature. Digital information awareness is the process by which people obtain knowledge about important personal information stored on their computers. The book is useful to scholars and professionals concerned with the design of next-generation user interfaces. This is usually provided graphically: when information is hidden from view it must be summoned to the front and users are interrupted by the system, disregarding the costs of the interruption. A solution is to use speech output to complement the graphics, but its use invokes anthropomorphic feelings whose cues must be carefully controlled if the system is to be regarded as humanized. An empirical study showed that people felt a degree of rapport with the such a system.


There are so many reasons to love the holidays but of course my favorite part is the holiday baking 🙂 I celebrate Christmas so all things Ginger are welcome!
I won't be with my boyfriend during Christmas so I wanted to make some holiday treats for us ahead of time. This past weekend I made these Chewy Ginger Buckeyes & Whole Wheat Cinnamon Buns (both vegan of course!). I very much enjoyed both but was most in love with the buckeyes. With just a hint of molasses & ginger, these healthy treats were a Christmas delight for sure. My boyfriend liked the Cinnamon Buns better. I toasted them up a bit right before serving & they were perfect!
With either of these treats you can't go wrong. They are sure to bring some holiday joy to your house & anyone you share them with. Today I am going to share the Ginger Buckeye recipe with you. Follow my blog & instagram @thekellydiet so you know when my Cinnamon Buns recipe is posted later this week!

After Postlberger attacked 40km from home the riders began to splinter, and Roche was part of a seven-man group that reeled in the Austrian on the Cote de Saint-Just.
Serena Williams Falls To Simona Halep At Wimbledon
Williams simply could not respond. It was a huge weight off Halep's shoulders, who was then ranked the world number one, and even though she learned to relax more in big career moments, the hunger for more grand slam glory remained. "I wanted this badly", she said. "So now I am happy". I just did natural what it came in my inside. I said that every time I would play a final of Grand Slam, I will do exactly the same thing.
Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer's most memorable matches
However, he held at love on his second opportunity. Where to watch Novak Djokovic vs Roger Federer Wimbledon 2019 Finalin India (TV channels)? Federer won a semifinal match between the two in 2012 at the All England Club. Djokovic starts the game in ominous fashion as he drags Federer left and right then finishes with a forehand victor . Federer had the only break point of the set at 2-1, but sent a forehand wide that time .
I said , 'OK, it's 5-2, it's real.' Then I just played every ball. "The day I stop fighting for equality and for people that look like you and me, will be the day I am in my grave", the 37-year-old said. King - who was no stranger to fighting for equality for women players when she was starting out - may feel justified after Williams was played off the court in the Wimbledon final on Saturday.

Benin and Madagascar's resilient and hubristic run was also halted in the process, though both leave the tournament having won many hearts with their sense of sheer optimism about heading somewhere, when many thought they would be gone earlier.
While the decision was quite obviously the incorrect one, Cowan said that Roy had no right to stand his ground after Dharmasena had raised his finger. He was fined 30% of the match fee. However, the umpire also holds an unwanted record involving England. He also umpired the 2016 World T20 final. Showing dissent at an umpire's decision is an offence under the International Cricket Council's code of conduct and match referee Ranjan Madugalle could now take action.
Celtic left-back move to Arsenal 'inevitable'
According to Neil Cameron of Herald Scotland , Arsenal have still NOT come near Celtic's valuation of the player. "He is rehabbing. He had the double hernia, and he still has the osteitis pubis problem, so it's a slow burner". The fee would be a Scottish record, surpassing the £19.7m Lyon paid them for Moussa Dembele. It has been widely reported that Arsenal only have a transfer budget of around £45m this summer after their failure to qualify for the Champions League.


World Report: The Future of Afghanistan, J Alexander Thier ed., US Institute of Peace, January 8, 2009.
The Future of Afghanistan, J Alexander Thier ed., US Institute of Peace, January 8, 2009.
Afghanistan sits at the intersection of an array of conflicts, including the War on Terror; the India-Pakistan rivalry; Afghanistan and Pakistan; the Sunni-Shia conflict; complex U.S. relations with NATO allies; Russia's relations with the U.S. and NATO; and the U.S.-Iran feud. This new book from USIP identifies weaknesses of early approaches and outlines a vision for success going forward. It brings together leading thinkers and policymakers in a new collection of ten essays, the culmination of the USIP-sponsored Future of Afghanistan project. It also explores how Afghans and international stakeholders can face with these and related challenges over a ten-year horizon.
The Future of Afghanistan Project was launched in 2008 by the United States Institute of Peace in response to the need for a unified, strategic, long-term vision for Afghanistan. More than seven years into the international intervention in Afghanistan, there is a sense of backsliding and a loss of focus. Most assessments and prescriptions focus on the near term, analyzing what is happening now and what must happen over the next twelve to eighteen months to "turn things around." At the same time, most commentators note that there is a broad lack of unified strategic vision between and among the Afghan government and their partners in the international community.
US policy toward Afghanistan will require a fundamental change in order to achieve long-term stability in that country, according to The Future of Afghanistan, a new U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP) collection of essays written by some of the world's top South Asia analysts. "A focused, coherent, and long-term approach to Afghan and regional stability is necessary to get Afghanistan out of its vicious cycle of insecurity, insurgency, impunity, and corruption" says the Institute's J Alexander Thier, who edited the volume.


Making A Lifestyle You think it's a diet. You think it's a cleanse. You think it's not eating carbs. You think wrong. Health is a lifestyle. It's a complete way of living. Health is from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed and the hours in between. It's a 24/7 practice. It's eating, drinking, breathing, and heart-beating. You can eat whatever you want, you can workout whenever you want, and you can socialize in any way. A healthy lifestyle means doing those things with health in mind.

Sunday is a rest day, so I'm allowed to do what the hell I want!
Have Your Cake and Eat It Too You see? You can have all those things if you just healthify them! I have a major sweet tooth. I am a fat kid in a health nut's body. I love my sweets, but I always keep health in mind when eating them. If I go overboard, I'll be sure to make up for it in the gym. Aim for balance.
Your life is important. Your vitality, wellness, vigor, energy, and spirit is important. You deserve the best because you are the best.
I may indulge in all those things, but guess what? It's OKAY. I'm healthy and you can be too.
Find time, at least an hour a day, to devote to moving. If you can't get to a gym, do some body exercises during one of your TV shows. Squats, Push-ups, Dips, Mountain Climbers. Those four things will shape you up just fine. They will get your body, digestion, and metabolism moving more efficiently.
I know it's hard to change your frame of mind. Change is a frightening thing. But if you don't change how you look at losing weight and gaining health today, then you won't ever get there. You will continue the same behavioral patterns and end up where you started, or worse, heavier and sicker.
If you need any help, just ask. My mission is to fight obesity and that starts with one person at at time.
If being overweight isn't your healthy lifestyle issue, what is? Tell me below and inspire the next blog. Thanks for reading.

Q: Django - Receiving error "too many values to unpack (expected 2)" In my website, I have created a custom user from the AbstractUser class.
When I check if a user with the same username or email exists, I get a value error returned to me.
Here's my code:
models.py:

Charity relieves need.
Philanthropy rewards promise.
Charity is committed to aid the unfortunate while philanthropy is determined to prevent and correct social ills. It recognizes both aspects of our role as defined by Robert H. Bremner, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus of History, The Ohio State University. "Charity and philanthropy are so closely related it is sometimes hard to tell them apart. Both involve giving but for different purposes: charity gives to relieve need, philanthropy to reward promise. Charity is older and plainer; philanthropy the more modish and glamorous."


When I watch television, any time I see an actor or actress who is not aging gracefully, I often shout, "Somebody needs some Advanced Night Repair, stat!" My TV watching companions chuckle good-naturedly when this happens, but I know they're just being nice. It's happens so often, the line now undoubtedly falls firmly into the realm of "dad jokes." The takeaway here is that I'm a long time fan of Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair. I've been using it regularly for three years, which turns out to be plenty long enough for me to work it into a repetitive one-liner.
Given my history with Advanced Night Repair, it was only natural that last year, when I discovered Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule, I couldn't wait to try it. It was the perfect opportunity to compare two of my favorite brands using a product I happen to be very familiar with. Today, I'm finally sharing the results of a Skincare Smackdown that actually began long ago.
As always, I like to use most skincare products for a minimum of 28 days before passing my final judgment. For this comparison, I've actually had much longer to evaluate each product – years, in the case of Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum, and 6 months in the case of Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule.
Today, I'll be judging each of the products based on ingredients, performance, packaging, and price. May the best serum win!
Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair and Missha Night Repair Science Activator are both serums that claim to protect the skin from environmental damage, reduce fine lines, even skin tone, and moisturize. They are designed to be applied after cleansing, before moisturizing.
Water\Aqua\EAU, Bifida Ferment Lysate, Methylgluceth-20, PEG-75, Butylene Glycol, Bis-Peg-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane, Arabidopsis Thaliana Extract, Tripeptide-32, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Lactobacillus Ferment, Cola Acuminata (Kola) Extract, Retinyl Palmitate, Pantethine, Caffeine, Glycereth-26, Sodium RNA, Squalane, Oleth-3 Phosphate, Oleth-3, Oleth-5, Bisabolol, Choleth-24, Ceteth-24, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile), Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Lecithin, Xanthan Gum, TEA-Carbomer, Trisodium EDTA, BHT, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Benzyl Alcohol, Green 5 (C61570I), Yellow 5 (CI19140), Red 4(CI14700).
There are some very good, notable skincare actives in this Estée Lauder serum. In addition to Bifida Ferment Lysate, Advanced Night Repair also contains Lactobacillus Ferment, another probiotic. Lactobacillus ferment acts as a skin softener, and was also shown in one study to be therapeutically effective in the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Also notable is the Retinyl Palmitate, a very gentle form of Vitamin A, and Sodium Hyaluronate, a skin hydrator that can hold 1,000 times its weight in water.
I'm intrigued by the inclusion of the ingredient Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, which is actually a sunscreen ingredient. I'm very curious about its inclusion in an evening serum since its pretty universally recommended not to wear sunscreens on your face at night. However, as far as chemical sunscreen agents go, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate is one of the gentlest in the bunch. If I had to guess, I'd say it's purpose in this serum to stabilize another ingredient.
Running this list through COSDNA did return one red flag. The ingredient Oleth-3 scores a big fat 5 out of 5 as a potential acne trigger.
Like the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum, Missha Time Revolution Science Activator Ampoule also contains Lactobacillus and Sodium Hyaluronate. The Missha serum contains Retinol instead of Retinyl Palmitate – Retinol being the stronger of the two. Additionally, the Missha formula also contains a multitude of beneficial plant extracts, and one of my personal favorite actives, Niacinamide, which has anti-inflammatory and brightening properties.
I also noted that the Missha formula does not contain the chemical sunscreen ingredient. When I ran the Missha list through COSDNA, there were no red flags in terms of acne triggers or irritants. I was surprised to find that although the Missha ingredient list is nearly three times longer than the Estée Lauder list, it actually contains no irritants or acne triggers.
Winner of this Round: Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule, for having more skincare actives and no irritants or acne triggers.
The Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair bottle has a very serious, medicinal look to it. The brown bottle looks like glass, but it's actually some sort of very sturdy plastic. It uses a glass dropper for dispensing product, which I like because it's hygienic and easy to control the amount of product I'm using.
The Missha Science Activator Ampoule bottle is a little flashier in terms of its look. I'm personally more attracted to the look of the more serious, brown, Estée Lauder bottle, but that's purely an aesthetic preference. The bottle itself is made of heavy glass. The Missha serum also uses a glass dropper to dispense the product, but it has an interesting addition – the bottle has a ring around the inner lip of the bottle top that removes excess product from the outside of the dropper as it's pulled out of the bottle. It's a nice touch that helps ensure not a drop of this liquid is wasted, and I appreciate it!
Winner of this Round: Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule, for having a bottle convention that prevents product spillage and waste.
I love the texture of this serum. It absorbs quickly, and provides an additional bit of moisture that I enjoy having in my routine. In terms of immediate results, my skin is softer and subtly brighter after using this product – a difference I can see after only a few nights. I've also noticed an overall calming effect, a decrease in redness, and a reduction in inflammation around any acne spots I might experience.
Over time, there aren't any mind blowing visual differences – most of this product's anti-aging function is preventative. I think if there was a magical way to compare my face after 10 years of using this product to my face after not using this product for the same 10 years, I'd be happy with the results. Unfortunately, technology hasn't advanced much in the magic department, so that's all speculative. However, I can say that when I stop using Advanced Night Repair (and don't replace it with a similar serum), my complexion loses a little bit of luster, which is what has kept me loyal to this serum for so long.
The Missha Science Activator Ampoule is similar in texture to the Estée Lauder serum. It has a little more slip to it, and though spreading it over my face is a little bit easier, it does take longer to absorb and is slightly stickier. The stickiness becomes irrelevant quickly since it disappears completely once moisturizer is applied, but it's still worth noting. Like the Estée Lauder serum, my skin is softer and subtly brighter within the first few nights of using this product, with a decrease in redness and a reduction in inflammation.
It's also similar to the Estée Lauder serum in the sense that most of the anti-aging action is preventative, and therefore there's no way to evaluate it. One area where Missha excels, however, is in the brightening effect, which is slightly more visible with the Missha Ampoule.
Winner of this Round: Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule, but only by a smidge, and only because of the more visible brightening effect. In terms of texture, I prefer the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum.
Advanced Night Repair comes in two sizes year-round – a 30 mL and a 50 mL that retail at $55 and $84, respectively. There is also a special extra large size that's released a couple of times a year, and usually sells out quickly. That one is 100 mL, and retails for $140.
The Missha Ampoule only comes in one size, a 100 mL bottle that retails for $80. It used to be sold in a 50 mL bottle for a lower price, but it seems Missha has switched over to only the 100 mL size for the US market. It is still available in the 50 mL bottle from international sellers.
Winner of this Round: Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule, for providing 100 mL of product for less than the price of half the amount of Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum.
Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule is the winner of this Skincare Smackdown! Don't get me wrong – I'm still a huge fan of Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair, and I maintain that the texture and the way the Advanced Night Repair feels immediately upon application is superior. But when it comes down to which product I'll repurchase from this point on – the superior ingredient list, cleaner packaging, and more visible immediate effects make Missha Science Activator Ampoule the winner.
Performance: 4/5 – Brightening, calming, slightly moisturizing. Purported cumulative anti-aging effects.
Value: 4/5 – $80 retail for 100 mL (3.4 oz.) of product is a great price for a quality serum. Additionally, it's frequently on sale on Missha's US website.
Now through Thursday, October 31st, you can use this private link to get a bottle of Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule for 30% off! This means you can pick up the Night Repair Ampoule for $35 instead of $50, so it's an excellent deal.
I usually buy mine from Missha's US website. Right now, Missha is having their semi-annual sale, so it's a great time to pick this up! The Missha Science Activator Ampoule is currently on sale for $48, which is 40% off!
You can also pick this up from W2Beauty, which carries a 50 mL size not currently available from the Missha US website. This size sells for $52, so if you miss the sale, but aren't ready to commit to $80 worth of product, W2Beauty is a great option.
Nice!!I actually wanted to buy the Missha's! But..that's a lot of money involved..
Yes, the price tag is high! But it does feel and look like a luxury item, which makes me feel a little better about the cost. It's definitely a treat!
Misshas Night Repair Ampoule is one of the products I really want to buy in future. I love how you compare those two products and I'm happy that the Missha products seems to be slightly better than the Estée Lauder product, since this would be my product of choice anyways.
Thanks for sharing..my mom was actually going to buy Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum..but I told her to try other products..
Oh, good! I hope she'll try the Missha, but I think your mom would be happy with either serum. They're both really nice – the Missha one is just a little bit nicer in the areas that count.
Yeah, I feel you on the expensive front. I definitely consider these to be luxury items. And thank you for the comment on my writing style! I sometimes fear being a little overly bogged down in the mire of product details. It's nice to know you're not falling asleep at your computer!
Yes, they're both on the pricey side, unfortunately. And there are some really great ones out there that cost less. I'm reviewing one next week that's fantastic, and in a much more reasonable price range. Maybe that will be the one you're searching for!
I've receive one bottle of the Missha one that I won in a contest. Looking foward to see the results that you mentioned.
I'd love to know how it works for you after you try it!
OMG this stuff is amazing! I can see already my face more firm, doesnt look too tired anymore, the texture has improved and my occasional breakouts healed a lot faster!
Great review! I received a sample of the Missha Night Repair with some other Missha products and was curious to see how others liked it long-term. I'd like to buy the full size bottle, but I'm wondering about how long do you think one bottle would last? Thanks so much!
Just so you know, the link for 30% off still works! I used it today and I was able to get it for $35 along with another 10% off since it was my first purchase. Thanks so much for the review! I'm so excited to try this out along with The First Essence.
How do the ingredients compare with ANR II?
As in, the new Advanced Night Repair?
Hey Louise! Excellent question. I haven't had a chance to try the new Advanced Night Repair yet. It's definitely on my list though, and when I do try it out, I promise there will be a rematch post!
I was wondering if I would be able to use the Missha First Treatment serum and Tretinoin at the same time as Missha has Retinol in it? Just started using the Tretinoin and would love to try the Missha serum.
Hi Michelle! I personally haven't had any issues using the Missha Serum with the Tretinoin, even when my skin was at its most sensitive. The amount of retinol in the Missha formula is so comparatively little, I think the likelihood of any problems is quite slim.
Thanks! Your site has been such a great help to me in finding a new skincare regimen. The Benton line is the one that I am leaning towards since you make it sound like gold in a bottle for acne prone skin, which I have.
I have been using the Benton Aloe BHA toner for more than a month. However, I just bought the Missha Ampoule and tried to use in conjunction to the Benton toner and had a huge allergic reaction on the spot. I developed a weird burning and itchy rash on my face. At first I thought I was it was just my imagination and left it on my face for a few minutes. However as the burning and itchiness intensified, I immediately had to wash it out.
So my question is, how you use the Benton Aloe BHA Toner and the Missha Ampoule together? Or am I solely allergic to the Missha one?
Since that day, I haven't used the Missha ampoule because I did not want to experience another weird allergic before an important day—that is my job interviews. I will, however, try the Missha one again. But I am curious whether the use of both products are incompatible with one another.
Hi! Is it okay to use the Missha ampoule in the morning even if it has retinol?
Are these serums suitable for woman at early twenties?
Thanks so much for this review. I've been thinking about getting the Missha ampoule and I think I'll pop out and get it later. I just wanted to mention, though, that you can get it in the smaller packaging online on gmarket (http://item2.gmarket.co.kr/English/detailview/item.aspx?goodscode=392150018). $24 is a much smaller investment than $80 if someone is unsure!
Can you recommend a product similar to Missha's preventative care in this serum? I've done some trial and error the product definitely makes me breakout. Its not the retinol as I use a PC retinol and I'm just fine. Help help help!
Thanks for sharing, I just purchased mine from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00ATLVNIS/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1440479105&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&keywords=missha+time+revolution&dpPl=1&dpID=41Y0YvtR7uL&ref=plSrch and I'm worried it may not be the real thing since the price is much lower..
Thank you so much for this :)) I saw that there were no acne causing ingredients in the Missha product I was just wondering if there are any harmful ingredients to the skin?

Findings on the pathogenesis of PML are reviewed and the encouraging case reports of novel treatments are reviewed, including immunomodulation and/or inhibition of viral replication.
Are astrocytes infected in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)?
M. Mázló, I. Tariska
Light- and electron-microscopic analysis of the present case and 23 cases published in the literature since 1970 leads to the conclusion that the relation is inverse between the appearance of giant, bizarre astrocytes and that of the productive infection of the nontransformed ones.
Progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy and viral antibody titres
R. Knight, N. Hyman, S. Gardner, P. Gibson, M. Esiri, C. Warlow
Journal of Neurology
There was a transient stabilization of the disease following treatment with cytarabine with a change in antibody titres suggestive of reduced viral replication in the central nervous system and a host response to the infection.
Progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy with magnetic resonance imaging verification and therapeutic trials with interferon
K. Tashiro, S. Doi, F. Moriwaka, Y. Maruo, M. Nomura
Progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging and brain biopsy and after the introduction of intrathecal β-interferon therapy, her neurological status and MRI findings became stable and showed minimal improvement.
Virus-cell interaction in oligodendroglia, astroglia and phagocyte in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy
I. Watanabe, S. Preskorn
Chemistry, Biology
Many virus-bearing sstroglias were noted to be in the early stage of cellular necrosis, or "edematous degeneration", which indicates that the JC virus is capable of inducing both lytic and abortive astroglial infections.
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy: the evolution of a disease once considered rare.
J. Berger, M. Concha
Journal of neurovirology
Establishing an unequivocal diagnosis of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy currently requires brain biopsy, and the application of polymerase chain reaction for JC virus amplification to cerebrospinal fluid samples suggests that it may provide an alternative means of diagnosis.
