GPX India Builds India's first Data Center Interconnect Network Leveraging Nokia's DCI Solution
Monday, 13 January 2020 by admin
MUMBAI, Jan. 13, 2020 — GPX India, a global technology leader providing next-generation, carrier-neutral data center services, announced that it has deployed India's first Data Center Interconnect (DCI) together with Nokia, implemented by a licensed service provider, to connect its two data centers in Mumbai. This will ensure a reliable and high-speed up to 10 Tbps connectivity between the two data centers. The solution offers cost efficiency while enhancing simplicity.
India is recording an unprecedented increase in data consumption in all segments. On the one hand, the growing consumption of video streaming and video content on various over-the-top applications is driving growth from subscribers. Hotstar had over 25 million* simultaneous viewers for the cricket world cup, highest ever viewership globally. As per Nokia's Mobile Broadband Index report 2019, the average data usage in India is over 10 GB per smartphone which is amongst the highest in the world. On the other hand, enterprises are leveraging new technologies like IoT, AI, and cloud. All these trends are resulting in the deployment of more servers and storage devices at data centers (DC), increasing demand for data center space for expansion and high speed dedicated connectivity between these multiple data centers, something which exists in countries like Singapore, Hong Kong, and the US. GPX is investing in data center infrastructure and has recently established its second data center in Andheri East area of Mumbai to support its customers across Carriers, Content, Cloud (3C) and enterprises. To interconnect the two data centers, GPX India has now deployed Nokia's 1830 Photonic Service Switch that provides a robust and scalable interconnect between the two data centers.
Nokia's solution can support 1 G, 10 G, and 100 G bandwidths and can scale up to 200 G and 600 G in the future to support the growing demand. The solution also has three divergent fiber path protection which offers smooth change-over to another pair in a few milliseconds in case of a fiber cut, without any service disruption for the customer. Additionally, two parallel networks have been deployed to provide redundancy in rare cases of failure of equipment.
Manoj Paul, Managing Director, GPX India said, "GPX has many firsts to its name and the Nokia DWDM solution-based DCI network which can support multiple 10 Tbps, is yet another added to the list. Apart from its built-in fiber and equipment level redundancy, being a point-to-point network using single run fiber without joints and built solely for the purpose of connecting the DCs makes it more reliable, secure and affordable. This model of data center interconnectivity, first in India, will enable DCs to grow and provide a campus type environment enable customers to expand between various DC sites in close proximity without any hassles,"
Vinish Bawa, Head of Emerging Business, Nokia India, said: "We are excited to partner with GPX India in providing a world-class experience to their customers. Our DCI solution will allow GPX India to cost-efficiently scale while ensuring reliability and business continuity in the network. This is an important deployment for us as it is the first DCI project for Nokia in the country. We look forward to having a long-term and fulfilling partnership with GPX India."

For our focus on Tuberculosis in February 2017, our partners at Aeras share the latest developments in the field of TB vaccines – and why we urgently need innovation to fight the disease. Read on to find out more!
Tuberculosis (TB) has a persistent reputation for being a disease of the past. But in reality, TB kills more people than any other single infectious disease in the world. Today, a third of the global population – more than 2 billion people – are infected with the bacteria that cause TB, and some 10% will get sick and could infect others simply by coughing or sneezing. On average, a person with active TB will spread the disease to 10 to 15 people within a year. TB, especially drug-resistant TB, is a deadly disease and thousands of Europeans are already infected with the bacteria that cause it.
In 2015 there were 10,4 million cases and 1,8 million deaths from TB disease around the world—and Europe is not immune. In 2015, the European region had 323 000 new cases and 37 000 deaths from TB.
In addition to the health burden, the economic burden of TB is considerable, costing Europe more than €5 billion in treatment and lost productivity each year, much more than the amount it would take to develop a new, more effective vaccine to prevent TB. Although TB treatment success rates in Europe have improved, they were still below global average in 2014, at 76%.
The rise in multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) strains is making TB harder to fight and presents a grave threat to health and security in all countries. Drug resistance is especially prevalent in Eastern Europe, where there is a serious MDR-TB epidemic, with one of the highest levels of MDR-TB globally. Nine of 30 countries with a high burden of MDR-TB are in the European region. And the XDR-TB "superbug" strains have now been found in 117 countries.
The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and the World Health Organization's (WHO) End TB Strategy both state that a new TB vaccine is key to ending the TB epidemic. A cost-effective vaccine that prevents adolescents and adults from acquiring, developing and transmitting TB would also lead to less reliance on antibiotics—a critical step in fighting the rising threat of drug-resistance. But a successful vaccine will only be possible with continued innovation and investment from around the globe. So as World TB Day approaches, we ask that you put your support behind vaccine research and development, and stand with us in the fight to end TB.

The first weekend of October is the Twin Cities Marathon, a tradition. In 2004, the Twin Cities Marathon was my first marathon, so it's very special to me. This weekend, I ran the 5k on Saturday and the 10 mile on Sunday. Over the past 10 years, I've probably done over 100 5k runs, no big deal. It's become routine. But this weekend, it became new again.
At the 5k, there were thousands of runners of different ages, sizes and walks of life. For many, this was their first 5k. To them, it was a big deal. All of them with their own stories and daily challenges, simply running, achieving a goal. At the 10 mile and marathon events, the runners had the same excitement and enthusiasm as months of hard work paid off in each step moving them to the finish line, crossing over in the victory of finishing. And as we cheered for the them today, I remembered how important the spectators and my friends and family were to me when I ran my first marathon. They carried me and inspired me. And this weekend, I was inspired by those running all of the events – 5k, 10k, 10 mile and marathon – especially those running for the first time.
Run into each day with a "first time again" perpective and be inspired and renewed as the old becomes new again.
The feeling that the crowd injects on you it's simply impossible to describe, towards the end when you are tired and your body reached its limit, the crowd carries you.
Your post made me think about the way a dog faces each morning walk. It's often the same route, but the smells are all new. As humans walk through life, they should use their eyes, ears, and hearts as much as dogs use their noses. Thanks, as usual, for making me think.
Absolutely – dogs are a perfect model of looking at each new day with enthusiasm and joy. My girls Molly and Lily have figured out how to live well.


Christmas is a time of giving. I've already done my bit for a few local charities this month. Earlier in the week I read this story. Heartwarming stuff indeed! And not entirely dissimilar to a little film we did last year. Just in case you haven't actually seen it yet – here it is!


The trailer talks about love triangle between Vidya, Rajkumar and Emraan.
Directed by Mohit Suri, the film is produced by Mukesh Bhatt, in association with Mahesh Bhatt, and presented by Fox Star Studios.
It will hit the silver screens on June 12, 2015.


Stand out in sequins and stun in this dress!
This dress certainly doesn't disappoint when it comes to the details, featuring a deep V highly embellished bodice, this piece has all the eye-catching details to make you feel amazing at your event. In a sheer material embroidered with sequins and teamed with an asymmetric skirt, perfect to highlight those all-important shoes that you partner your dream dress with.

The case for true independence requires Scotland must vote for Brexit
by Jim Ferguson
article from Tuesday 14, May, 2019
I TOOK PART in the recent BBC European Parliament election debate. As we entered the studio set, like gladiators walking into an arena, I noticed those around me were strangely quiet, apprehensive one might say. Never having been a career politician I wondered if the fact that I was feeling quite calm was normal.
We took our seats and the questions started. Like a lighting bolt, a gentleman from the audience launched a torpedo-like question and I felt the anticipation grow. You could see and sense the nervousness of those in particular representing Labour and Conservative parties.
The question was what was going to be the outcome of the election? While the Brexit party has good poll results we as candidates simply acknowledge it and then get back on with the campaign. Frankly we are too busy convincing everyone who has an ear to listen that this is no longer an issue of right and left – but right and wrong – because this is now about our democracy. If 17.4 million people who voted for Brexit, as well as those who, regardless of their position on the matter, feel democracy is being disrespected are not given a voice, we could in my opinion, see the country descend into further chaos, division and confusion.
So I told the audience that I was fighting for independence and before I could finish my sentence a chuckle emanated from Tommy Shepherd the SNP MP on the panel and I heard his voice say "Are You?". The Scottish Nationalists who beat their chest and punch the air don't like it when Brexiteers start talking about fighting for independence for Britain because it exposes a major weakness in their argument. They claim that Scotland can be a sovereign independent country and then they say 'in the EU' rather quickly and a little bit more quietly, but its not lost on me.
The truth is the Scottish National Party likes to perpetuate the myth that it is the soul champion of the cause and when we as Brexiters start talking about independence for Britain they get nervous. I tackled him on this as well as a number of people in the audience and in classic politician style he tried to evade but a certain lady in the audience had him directly in her aim. It was pointed out that to claim Scotland could be free and independent but still part of the EU was as untrue as the SNP's vanguard argument that Scotland's oil and the industry supporting it would be the final answer to all of Scotland's problems.
Frankly the European Union does not want free and independent countries. It wants vassal states subservient to the real power brokers – which is of course the European Commission. An unelected commission that is unaccountable to anyone, not even members of the European Parliament. The European Union parliament is the only such institution in the World with legislators that cannot actually make any laws. Nicola Sturgeon is simply being used by the elites in Europe with the old adage of divide and conquer because Britain United is far harder to deal with than Britain divided.
Nicola Sturgeon might be happy about having her liege lords in Brussels fully in control of her and her Scottish Government, it is however anything but independence. The European Union has a guiding strategy known as the Prodi doctrine. This clearly lays out the path that Scotland must take if it wants to be a member of the European Union. First it must leave the EU (by leaving the UK before or after it leaves the EU) and then apply for its own EU membership. This can only happen if Scotland is truly an independent country. Either the SNP leadership simply does not understand this basic fact or they just like to blame Westminster for everything that goes 'wrong'.
So we in the Brexit Party are saying to the people in Scotland who want their version of independence the quick route is to vote to leave the European Union and then if they really have the courage to raise their separation wishes with Westminster at another referendum they can apply to do so. Thereupon I and every single person who believes in the Union of Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales will fight them because we believe we are stronger together.
There are more people in Scotland who believe we should leave the EU than who voted for the Scottish National Party at the last European election. So I call upon the people of Scotland – regardless of party affiliation – to back and support the only true party that stands with the sole purpose of carrying out the wishes of the people to leave the European Union. All other parties are a vote to remain but if there is enough support for the Brexit Party it is my absolute belief that together with those sympathetic to Brexit within the Labour, Nationalist and Conservative camps we can deliver Brexit.
One thing is for certain as a Highlander and proud Scot with family who have fought in many major conflicts around the world ,and as the son of a solider, I am standing up and fighting for my country, my people and my democracy. The people of Scotland deserve better, our economy deserves better, our farmers, our crofters and our fishermen deserve far better and the positive message that the Brexit Party brings is one of unity, courage and strength.
So lets stop talking down our people and our country and lets unite together, because we have the talent and the ability to be a great and successful, truly independent nation. Free of the EU we can trade on the global stage – and the Brexit Party can and will deliver this for the people.
Jim Ferguson is a Brexit Party candidate for Scotland in the EU Parliament elections due to be held on Thursday 23 May.

A quick glance at some of the technology stories breaking in the weekend papers, from Eircom seeking a fresh round of financing and how analysts fear online TV piracy to Mark Zuckerberg's dad's advice on kids and technology.
The Sunday Times reported Eircom is considering proposals to inject €300m in cash into the company as it battles to avoid breaching its banking covenants. Singapore Technologies Telemedia, which owns a majority stake in Eircom, has signalled to the company's management that it is prepared to inject €200m. The Employee Share Ownership Trust (ESOT), which owns 35pc of Eircom, is discussing plans to invest up to €100m to avoid a dilution of its stake.
Under the proposals, some of the cash would be used to buy back Eircom's debt at a discount, particularly its payment-in-kind (PIK) notes of junior debt. Senior STT executives are expected in Dublin within two weeks to discuss the proposals.
Eircom's management, led by CEO Paul Donovan, is rewriting its three-year business plan after being asked by STT to review it because of deteriorating market conditions in Ireland.
Eircom said the review was routine but it is understood that the new business plan must be finalised before STT will take the plunge to invest.
The review is expected to be completed within weeks.
The Wall Street Journal reported that more than a week after his mysterious disappearance in Egypt, Google's top executive in the Middle East and political activist Wael Ghonim will be released from government detention on Monday, according to his family and a prominent businessman.
During his disappearance, Ghonim, a father of two who is in his 30s, emerged as a central symbol of the anti-government protests, cast as the face of a movement and hero in the cause of democracy. Protest organisers in Cairo's central Tahrir Square adopted him as a symbolic leader. Suspecting his arrest – but having no proof – they declared in speeches they wouldn't leave the square until he was freed. Marchers carried homemade signs emblazoned with his name. At the same time, some local media suggested Ghonim's political activities make him a traitor to his nation.
On Sunday, Egyptian authorities broke the silence on Ghonim's fate, according to his brother, Hazem Ghonim. "They told us they'll probably bring him to us, and that he will likely be escorted by security," he said from Cairo.
Billionaire businessman Naguib Sawiris also said on Sunday that Egypt's vice-president told him Ghonim would be released. "The boy is a hero," Sawiris said. "When he is released he will become the living hero of this revolution."
The Observer reported how broadcasting analysts are predicting a fresh tide of television piracy in the wake of the launch of Sky Atlantic, the glossy satellite channel that has bought the UK rights to many of America's most successful drama series, including Mad Men and The Sopranos.
Fans of popular and acclaimed US shows such as the Prohibition-era Boardwalk Empire and comedy drama Entourage are already honing new, illicit ways of accessing episodes of the shows they love without the need to pay at least £20 a month to subscribe to Sky.
Analysts say "streaming" from unofficial websites will peak in the next few months. After that, many believe, increased demand will bring new and cheaper ways to watch television over the internet into the mainstream.
While many non-subscription viewers are still happy to wait for the release of DVD box sets, younger audiences are already resorting to streaming bootleg episodes from sites not sanctioned by the programmes' 'rights-holders'.
"If I have a good connection I will download a whole show in bits, with Torrent, and see it whenever I like," said Jake, a 21-year-old trainee chef from Bournemouth, "but otherwise I will stream a show from somewhere. It is not about the money. It is about impatience and getting some power back."
USA Today reported how Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's dad, Dr Edward Zuckerberg, revealed that an early exposure to computers inspired his son's interest in technology and he encouraged parents to support their children's strengths and passions with a balance of "work and play".
"My kids all grew up around the office and were all exposed to computers," said Dr Edward Zuckerberg, a dentist. "There are advantages to being exposed to computers early on. That certainly enriched Mark's interest in technology."
Zuckerberg said he computerised his offices in 1985. Mark was born in 1984 and was raised in the house where his father's dental offices are located in Dobbs Ferry, New York, in suburban Westchester.
The dentist said his own computer science background was "limited" – he majored in biology in college – but he said he's "always been technologically oriented in the office" and "always had the latest high-tech toys," including an early Atari 800.

Winnie was a champion of freedom - Holness
Loop News Created : 3 April 2018 Jamaica News
In this March 5, 1986 file photo Winnie Mandela mourns the death of 17 black activists at a funeral service held in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Prime Minister Andrew Holness has paid respects to the late Winnie Madikizela-Mandela and hailed her as a champion of freedom.
The anti-apartheid freedom campaigner died Monday in her homeland South Africa. She was 81 years old.
Prime Minister Holness said Winnie Mandela's death brings into focus the significant struggle of black people throughout the world against racism and in particular apartheid in South Africa.
"Winnie Mandela was a symbol of the black struggle against oppression and injustice. We here in Jamaica supported her in that struggle as she maintained the legacy of her then husband Nelson Mandela while he was locked away for 27 years," said Prime Minister Holness.
He noted the tremendous impact both Winnie and Nelson Mandela had on him and throughout the world.
"As a young man the Mandelas were inspirations to me and many of my peers. We were cognizant of the evolution of the struggle that culminated in the release of Nelson Mandela and majority black rule. We still strongly remember their visit to Jamaica in 1991 as I know do many Jamaicans today".
Prime Minister Holness added that Winnie Mandela is immortalized in the Jamaican socio-cultural consciousness with songs and stories about her life and struggles.
"Winnie is a part of us. We identified with her struggle and we recorded songs about her. Jamaica embraced her not just as the wife of Nelson Mandela but importantly the mother of modern South Africa – a woman who was a freedom fighter and liberator in her own right".
The Prime Minister said Jamaica has lost a friend and inspiration.
Prime Minister Holness conveyed condolences on behalf of the people of Jamaica, to the nation of South Africa.

Keanu Reeves reveals he pushed for 'Constantine' sequel.
Designer Jan Černý presents his tenth collection under the name "A boy who plays with fire"
photo: courtesy of Jan Černý
In his latest work, designer Jan Černý returns to the family fireplace associated with the element of fire. Don't play with fire is a sentence that the designer often heard in his childhood and at the same time these words became the element of flame, the main idea and symbol of the collection. Fire as the warmth of home, as well as the unbridled element and the magic of transformation. A fire that destroys and transforms into new ones at the same time.
"The collection is a celebration of my figurative play with fire and that not being afraid and stepping out of your comfort zone can pay off. At the same time, I hope that it will be an inspiration for other young people to fulfill their desires and dreams", describes the collection's author.
The A BOY WHO PLAYS WITH FIRE collection is divided into three parts that touch on three important areas of the beginning of human life: childhood, adolescence and becoming independent. In these three parts, Jan Černý compares a person's life to the individual stages of fire: childhood to striking a match, growing up to a wild and unbridled fire, and adulthood to the at first glance less conspicuous but at the same time the most warming coals.
The collection, which includes over 30 unisex outfits, in addition to iconic streetwear pieces, also includes developed men's tailoring and hybrid clothing created for multiple occasions. There is a hand-made signature Rorschach bleach, which is accompanied by a completely new black and white bleach, which is created by printing the texture of an uneven industrial floor in the Jan Greenhouse Studio. Also new in Jan's favorite manipulations with fabric is the patina of screen-printed colors on a trench coat and a workwear shirt with trousers.
Graphic artist Martin Tomáš created the print of fabrics as if they were drawn with the charcoal of fires and other seasonal graphics at the same time as the visual identity of the show. Boris Kráľ, a tailor and long-term collaborator of Jan Černý, took care of the tailoring and sharp silhouettes. In addition to the three new Prestige x Jan colorways, the collection also includes the new JAN SHOPPER BAG, and the JAN BAG leather handbag from the last show reappears. Gloves according to Jan's design were hand-sewn by the traditional Czech company Bohemia Gloves.
In addition to typical oversized looks, silhouettes begin to taper and stretch in height, as seen in tailored coats and elongated narrow sleeves on several models. The color development of the series plays with the vibrant colors that are typical for Jan's work, while at the same time reacting to difficult times with a much greater representation of dark colors and black.

One of the form players this sevens season, especially on the domestic stage, Stanaway looked to be a near lock to join the side that would travel to the Gold Coast this April to contest in the Commonwealth Games.
However, he has been dropped alongside Luke Masirewa, Kurt Baker and Tone Ng Shiu.
"When we are leaving out players like Teddy Stanaway it shows the strength and depth we are building," coach Chris Laidlaw said.
Laidlaw said that with players returning from injury, the squad for tournaments in the USA and Canada was his hardest selection since taking on the job in 2017.
Instead, Laidlaw has opted to bring Trael Joass and Dylan Collier back into the squad after the pair suffered injuries in Cape Town and missed the Sydney and Hamilton tournaments, and also included rookie 21-year-old Ngarohi McGarvey-Black. Etene Nanai-Seturo, who was recently signed by New Zealand Rugby after they reached an agreement with the Warriors following mediation, has retained his place in the side.
Nanai-Seturo had signed with the Warriors on a five-year deal in 2015 as a 15 year old.
Laidlaw's side will play Uruguay, Argentina and Scotland in pool play at the USA tournament.
He said the focus was firmly on winning the two tournaments and his side was not yet looking ahead to the Commonwealth Games in April.

Well this has nothing to do with money laundering so the three stages of money laundering are NOT: 1) Gentle cycle ?

Q: Download folder containing large files in the google drive to Linux This is the error code I get. As suggested here, it is because the file size is too big. Probably some of the files in the folder are very large (images in raw format).
Access denied with the following error:

        Cannot retrieve the public link of the file. You may need to change
        the permission to 'Anyone with the link', or have had many accesses.

You may still be able to access the file from the browser:

Download ended unsuccessfully

Is there a command that I can download them to my linux machine?
This is the command I am using
gdown --remaining-ok  --folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/<id>?usp=sharing

A: Wild guess the download link you have came from the google drive web application.
Someone right clicked on a file and selected share.
They then entered the email address of someone to share that file with.
Somehow you were given the Link that was emailed to that email address
The only drive account that can download that file is the owner of the email address it was Shared with.   So you will need to be logged in as that account to download it.
Option would be if the owner of the file had created a share with everyone link instead of having supplied an email address.
This error has nothing to do with Linux or the size of the file

Nutritional Needs During Pregnancy | How to Stay Healthy While Pregnant!
Congratulations! You're pregnant. In nine months, you are finally going to be a mother.
You will soon be gaining a lot of weight in preparation for your baby's growth and, eventually, his birth. You should therefore make certain that you are in good health.
Eating a healthy and balanced diet will be very important during pregnancy. A baby's growth will rely solely on what nutrients a mother provides him; this nourishment will depend on what the mother eats.
Fruits and vegetables, food choices rich in iron and calcium, and fiber-rich foods, among many others, are incorporated into a pregnant woman's diet.
Caffeine is minimized; alcohol is avoided. Smoking is also prohibited.
A healthy lifestyle and diet will ensure that the needs of both the pregnant woman and her baby are met.
Other than eating a balanced diet, a doctor may also prescribe vitamins and minerals to supplement a pregnant mother's diet.
Prenatal supplements contain vitamins and minerals that cater specifically to a pregnant woman's needs.
Prenatal vitamins contain folic acid. Folic acid, also known as folate, is vital in the normal fusion of nervous system tissues.
Without adequate folic acid intake, a pregnant mother may give birth to a baby with neural tube abnormalities.
It is recommended for a pregnant woman to have at least 600 micrograms of folate daily.
Mothers who have had children with neural tube defects should get 4000 micrograms daily in subsequent pregnancies.
It is also important for pregnant women to include foods rich in folic acid in their meals. Dark green fruits and vegetables, wheat's, and whole-grain bread have significant amounts of folic acid and should be included in the diet.
Folic acid is especially important in the first few weeks of a baby's life.
During the first month of pregnancy, a baby's nervous system is developed; it is during this time that folic acid needs should be adequately met. Studies also show that women benefit from folic acid supplementation before they even start getting pregnant.
This ensures that from the very beginning of pregnancy, a mother's folate stores have been fully replenished.
Iron is usually included in prenatal supplements. This ensures that a pregnant mother's baby will have sufficient blood production.
Unfortunately, iron causes gastrointestinal upset. Most women experiencing morning sickness will hesitate to take iron supplements as iron can aggravate nausea.
Obstetricians would then advise that iron supplements be started on the second trimester.
By this time, nausea and morning sickness will have resolved.
Prenatal supplements should also contain adequate amounts of calcium; calcium is necessary for a baby's bone development.
Usually, a baby uses up his mother's calcium reserves, even if the mother's calcium stores become severely depleted.
To provide for the needs of both the mother and the baby, calcium supplements are therefore advised.
Calcium-rich foods are also included in the diet, such as non-fat milk, cheese, and yogurt.
Despite a woman's efforts to try to eat right and buy healthy food options, her nutritional requirements may not be completely met.
These pregnant women will greatly benefit from prenatal vitamins as these provide what the diet cannot.
With all the new challenges that a pregnant mother has to face, she will need all the help she can get.
When you first discover that you are pregnant, you feel like the luckiest woman in the world. Everything else seems not to matter; your baby becomes the most important thing to you. Your actions, decisions, and even your diet will revolve around your baby.
It is wise to always remember that whatever you eat will eventually reach that little baby growing inside you. Now that you are pregnant, your diet will be slightly different.
Your baby will need increasing amounts of calcium and iron.
These minerals are needed for optimum bone growth and blood production; it is then important that your diet include calcium-rich and iron-rich foods. Milk has high calcium content; however, opt for low-fat or non-fat milk.
Make sure to drink one glass of milk a day, or about eight ounces, as this is the recommended intake during pregnancy.
Your baby will also need folic acid for normal nervous system development, so be sure to include folic acid sources in your meals.
A pregnant woman undergoes different emotional stages.
Her emotions can be volatile; pregnancy can be initially hard to swallow.
To prepare for this surge of emotions, a pregnant woman can benefit from a good and healthy diet because a healthy body is better able to cope with stress.
Unfortunately, eating well during the first few months may become difficult.
If you are experiencing morning sickness, you are not alone. Nausea and vomiting are common in the early weeks of pregnancy, brought about by hormonal changes.
There is no need to worry because the nausea usually lessens as the pregnancy progresses.
Studies show that low sugar levels aggravate morning sickness, so leave some crackers or biscuits on your nightstand before you sleep. That way, you can immediately eat a small serving upon waking up.
Ice chips may also help quell the queasiness. In addition, frequent small meals are ideal during pregnancy as they help distribute your food intake throughout the day.
This ensures stable blood glucose levels and relieves the frequent stomach upset you may be experiencing.
Your diet should include a generous amount of fruits and vegetables.
These provide the vitamins and minerals essential for your baby's normal growth. In addition, they help your baby develop a taste for fruits and greens.
Research has shown that the flavor of the food you eat usually reaches the amniotic sac which contains the fluid your baby is comfortably swimming in. The fluid freely reaches his mouth and tongue.
Eating greens and fruits during pregnancy will then accustom your baby to their different tastes. In fact, studies indicate that mothers who eat a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables have babies who are less picky about their food.
Try to steer clear of sweets as this wreaks havoc on your blood sugar.
It also spoils your appetite, potentially depriving you of nutrients that your baby needs.
It is prudent to skip the soda; drink water instead. Lastly, include healthy sources of protein as well to help your baby's tissue development.
All these healthy diet changes will guarantee that your baby grows up to be just as beautiful and perfect as you.
Other than eating a balanced diet, a doctor may also prescribe vitamins and minerals to supplement a pregnant mother's diet. Learn more here!

With a whooping budget of Rs 1500 crore, Tamil Nadu government declared to set up the highly awaited All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) facility in Madurai's Thoppur region of Tamil Nadu.
During the Union Budget 2015-16, the Central Government had announced setting up an All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) facility in Tamil Nadu. However, the beginning of set-up faced a few delays due to issues related to location selection since a number of districts came up with demands to set up the medical institute in their region. To come up with a final selection, a special central team had made visits to five locations in Tamil Nadu – including those at Madurai, Erode and Pudukottai districts. After considering all factors, the central government team zeroed down Thoppur of Madurai district to be an ideal location to set up the landmark AIIMS facility of the state.
After the location being finalised, K Palaniswami, the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu declared that the set-up of AIIMS in Madurai will now begin. It will be a 750-bed modern facility will be set up in the town of Thoppur near Madurai at an estimated cost of Rs 1,500 crore. It is remarkable that the proposed institute will also have a teaching facility attached to it with 100 MBBS seats, boosting the state's premium medical education facility provisions significantly. Thanking the Centre, Palaniswami assured that Tamil Nadu government will provide all the needed support to turn AIIMS facility into a reality.
To turn AIIMS Tamil Nadu into a reality, Palaniswami has directed state Health Minister C Vijayabaskar, Principal Health Secretary, J Radhakrishnan and other senior officials to provide all the necessary support to the Centre to initiate the work at the earliest. Even the late Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa was very keen that an institution of the calibre of AIIMS will set up in Tamil Nadu. She believed that the medical facility can provide quality medical education, research, and high-end tertiary healthcare in the public sector for the betterment of the poor and middle-class people.

Judah and Samaria
QBible
Answers to Quora Questions by Yair Davidiy (9 February, 24 Shevet, 5778)
Are Judea and Samaria the homeland of the Jewish people?
https://www.quora.com/Are-Judea-and-Samaria-the-homeland-of-the-Jewish-people/answer/Yair-Davidiy
When the Israelites came out of Egypt the first portions they conquered of the Promised Land were the regions east of Jordan. These went to the Tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half Manasseh (Numbers 34:14, Deuteronomy 3:12, 16).
Even though these Tribes had already received their lands they were obliged to continue the conquest of all the Land together with the other Tribes (Joshua 1:12-14). The Israelites then crossed the Jordan and conquered the south and center which included the future areas of Judah and Samaria. These areas belonged to the Tribes of Judah, Ephraim and Manasseh. The "remaining seven tribes" (Joshua 18:1-4) were were then conquered and distributed. After that a scattering of 48 cities, some from each Tribe, were given to the Tribe of Levi (Joshua 21:1-41, cf. Numbers 35:7). There were 12 tribes of Israel. They inhabited all the Land of Israel which encompassed a good portion of the Middle East. This included Judah and Samaria.
After the death of King Solomon the Israelite Tribes divided into two sections (1-Kings 12:16-19). The Kingdom of Judah was in the south centered on Jerusalem. The Kingdom of Israel, also referred to as Samaria, was in the north with its capital in the city also known as Samaria. The Assyrians attacked the northern Kingdom and exiled its inhabitants in stages. The Exiles included Israelites from east of the Jordan (1-Chronicles 5:26); the Tribes in the north (2-Kings 15:29); and Samaria (2-Kings 17:6). According to Assyrian inscriptions, Biblical indications, and Midrashim many were also taken, by Assyria under Sennacherib, from Judah. Meanwhile the original Hebrew inhabitants of Samaria had been exiled. Before the exile many had moved to Judah and there were also more Israelite refugees from Samaria who followed them. The fact that a minority of Israelites moved to Judah is confirmed by the Bible, Midrashim, and archaeological findings. The population of Judah therefore included many from the Northern Ten Tribes though the bulk of them had been taken away by the Assyrians. In the south Judah was the dominant Tribe so all inhabitants of the region were named after Judah. That is where the name "Jew" comes from. The Ten Tribes exist but they were exiled and last awareness of their ancestry. In the future this will change. For the present the only section of the Israelite nation that is recognizable as such is the Jewish People. The Jewish People encompass the Tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi IN ADDITION TO minority representatives of all the other Tribes. God gave ALL the Land to the Israelite Tribes. The Jews are responsible for their own lands and the lands of the rest of Israel now in their possession.
In addition there was also a people known as Samaritans. They were originally Gentile pagans who had been brought into the land by the Assyrians. Samaria is where the Samaritans lived when the Assyrians settled them. The Samaritans however were not Israelites. They were descendants of heathens who were only partially Judaised which is why the Jews kept a distance from them. The Samaritans had been brought in by Assyria from other nations to take the place of the former Israelite inhabitants who had been exiled (2-Kings 17:6, 24-29).
Samaria had formerly belonged to the Tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh and Issachar. Judah was to the south and included the area of Benjamin north of Jerusalem and encompassing the Benjamin settlement of Beth-el. The Ten Tribes had been mostly exiled but representative portions were still to be found with Judah. The presence of elements from those tribes who had been in Samaria is mentioned in the Bible. King Josiah son of Amon ruled over Judah and the rest of the Israelite area about 100 years after the Ten Tribes had been exiled. Josiah purified of idolatry the ruins of cities in Manasseh, Ephraim, Simeon, "even unto Naphtali" (1-Chronicles (NASB) 34:14). This affirms that the cities of Samaria were then in ruins and presumably uninhabited. [A stella recalling King Josiah of Judah has been found in Beth-Shean in North Israel in the former area of Manasseh.] There was a small remnant from Manasseh and Ephraim and also of other tribes together with Judah. Contributors to the Temple Fund in the time of King Josiah were mentioned as from "Manasseh and Ephraim, and from all the remnant of Israel" (2-Chronicles 34:9). There were therefore some members from these tribes with Judah at that time. There were minorities present of the other Tribes as well BUT since their main Tribal bodies had been exiled they are generally subsumed together with Judah.
The Midrash Seder Olam (ca. 150 CE) points out that in the Books of Ezra and Nehemiah are found lists of the families who returned to the Land of Israel from Babylon. ONLY families from the Tribes of Judah, Benjamin, and Levi are mentioned. This is despite the fact that minority remnants of the other tribes were there. There is a disparity of 20% between the total census numbers and the total listed families from Judah, Benjamin, and Levi. The Midrash Seder Olam opines that numerically the Jews of Judah who returned from Babylon were these 80% from the former Kingdom of Judah (i.e. Judah, Benjamin, and Levi) while the 20% who were not listed are minority remnants from the Northern Tribes.
Nachmanides explains that the Lost Ten Tribes were destined to reach their Tribal Expression in Exile. Therefore, as far as Scripture is concerned they had been ALL exiled and disappeared.
Nachmanides (1194-1270):
"Those from the Tribes of Ephraim and Shimeon from Israel that were present with Judah were they who dwelt in the Land of Judah or perhaps to some degree also those who had dwelt in their own territories adjoining Judah and had fled to Judah. They are referred to in a general sense as from Israel [in 2-Chronicles 35:18] and not by their specific tribes since they represented only a small portion of their tribe. These are they who returned under Ezra with the Jews from Babylon. They were not expressly mentioned by their tribes since they were attached to Judah. They all settled in the cities of Judah. There was no Redemption for the Ten Tribes who remained in exile."
Book of Redemption (Sefer HaGeulah).
It should be emphasized that most of the Ten Tribes did not return. They will do so in the End Times, as prophesied.
Ezekiel 37:
21 Then say to them, Thus says the LORD God: Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land; 22 and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king over them all; they shall no longer be two nations, nor shall they ever be divided into two kingdoms again.

The Present-Day Jews at Present Represent ALL ISRAEL since for the time being they are the only ones still recognizable as such.
This had been predicted by the forefather Jacob.
10 The scepter shall not depart from Judah,
Nor the ruler's staff from between his feet,
Until Shiloh comes,
And to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.
Rabbi Manasseh ben Yisrael (1604-1657) explained (in line with theHebrew text and other Rabbinical authorities) this verse from the Hebrew to mean:
10 The scepter [Hebrew: "shevet" i.e. Tribe or Staff of Being a Tribe] shall not depart from Judah,
And to him shall be the obedience [Hebrew : "kehast" i.e. ingathering] of the peoples [i.e. other tribes of Israel.]
This he explains meant that the Sign of being a Tribe would not depart from Judah but it would be missing from the other Tribes. This would continue until the Messiah ["Shiloh"] appears and he will make known to all the rest of Israel what Tribe each one belongs to.
Just as King Josiah of Judah reigned over all of the lands of the other Tribes so too must the Jews of today endeavor to do so.
There is a Positive Commandment to conquer ALL the Land of Israel.
The Commandment to Settle the Land of Israel, Part 1
by Rabbi Eliezer Melamed
http://www.yeshiva.co/midrash/sh...
Members of ALL the Israelite Tribes have an obligation to help conquer and settle with Israelites ALL the Land of Israel. This is regardless as to whether the areas in question pertain to their own Tribe or not. This does not mean that under all and any circumstances Israel needs to attack its Gentile neighbors.
It does however imply that once the Lands have come into the hands of Israel and Israel needs them and can make use of them they should not be surrendered.
In our time Judah is the fore-runner going before the other Tribes to prepare the way (Hosea 6:11, Jeremiah 33:7-11). Judah needs to be strengthened and encouraged. The Captivity of the Jews (Judah) and of the Lost Ten Tribes (Israel) will return and be rebuilt in the Land of Greater Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates. We will be forgiven for our sins and purified of the impurity caused by our bad habits, harmful surroundings, and past lifestyles, and the crippling spiritual hang-ups these have caused us.
Micah 4:8 predicts that in the end times at the beginning of the return "THE FIRST DOMINION" in the final return of Israel shall be "TO THE DAUGHTER OF JERUSALEM" meaning descendants of Judah. In addition to Micah 4:8, Hosea 6:11 says that Judah will lead the way for the other Tribes and prepare the path for their return. Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Kalischer (1795-1874) noted that this verse refers to the End Times when Judah (i.e. the Jews) will prepare the way for the Return of the Ten Tribes.
Judah and Samaria are part of the Promised Land. They are even more than that in so far as much of the Biblical Narrative takes place in those regions.
They are CORE AREAS and at least as important as all other Israelite regions.
