A Comprehensive Guide to Cannabinoid Absorption and Digestion
Cannabinoids, the primary active compounds in cannabis, are the linchpins for the therapeutic effects often ascribed to medical cannabis. This guide unpacks the intricate journey of how cannabinoids are processed and absorbed within the human body.
Introduction to Cannabinoids
Cannabinoids are unique chemical compounds extracted from the cannabis plant. The two most widely researched are THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). THC is chiefly renowned for its psychoactive effects, whereas CBD is non-psychoactive and is increasingly recognized for its potential therapeutic benefits.
Focus: Ingestion Over Inhalation
This guide will primarily consider the ingestion methods for cannabinoids, such as edibles, oils, and tinctures. Ingestion and inhalation follow different digestive and absorption pathways, making it essential to distinguish between the two.
Digestive Pathways of Cannabinoids
Stomach and Initial Digestion
Upon ingestion, cannabinoids first arrive in the stomach. However, minimal absorption takes place here; they mainly proceed to the small intestine.
Liver’s Role in Metabolism
Before entering the bloodstream, cannabinoids are metabolized in the liver. For instance, THC transforms into a potent variant, 11-hydroxy-THC. This conversion partly explains why edibles may induce more robust and extended effects compared to inhalation.
Absorption and Influence on the CNS
Small Intestine Absorption
The small intestine is where most cannabinoid absorption happens. The intestinal walls absorb the compounds and transport them to the liver.
Crossing the Blood-Brain Barrier
Once in the bloodstream, cannabinoids can traverse the blood-brain barrier, affecting the central nervous system and triggering effects such as euphoria or anxiety relief.
Interactions with the Endocannabinoid System
Every vertebrate possesses an endocannabinoid system (ECS), comprised of a network of receptors (CB1 and CB2) and neurotransmitters. Cannabinoids interact with these receptors, notably:
- CB1 Receptors: Predominantly located in the brain, THC’s binding to these receptors is responsible for its psychoactive effects.
- CB2 Receptors: Found throughout the body, especially in immune cells. CBD often communicates with these receptors, potentially offering anti-inflammatory and other health benefits.
Duration and Intensity of Effects
Effects typically manifest between 30 minutes to 2 hours post-ingestion and can last significantly longer—up to 8 hours or more—than effects from inhaled cannabis. This duration varies depending on several factors like metabolism, dosage, and food intake.
Therapeutic Uses and Medical Implications
Cannabinoids like THC and CBD have shown promise in applications such as:
- Pain management
- Epilepsy treatment
- Inflammation reduction
- Mental health support
Final Remarks and Future Directions
Understanding how cannabinoids are digested and absorbed is invaluable for healthcare providers and patients alike. It informs dosing, timing, and the choice of administration methods. Ongoing research will hopefully provide a clearer picture of the therapeutic potential of cannabinoids.
Note: Always consult a knowledgable healthcare professional before using cannabis for medical purposes, as individual experiences can differ significantly.

IBM has announced it is licensing a basket of processor designs from ARM for its network equipment division. The new deal means Big Blue can make use of ARM's Cortex-A15, Cortex-A12, Cortex-A7 and Cortex-M4 cores, as well as the ARM Mali-450 graphics processing unit. These are aimed at beefy phone and tablet chips, and IBM wants …
Which just leaves Intel holding out on ARM, still thinking they can better it (whilst releasing lots of misleading benchmark results for Atom).
Reading Register headlines is like participating in charades.
So how is having to buy in an outside design - as IBM had to do with x86 to stay relevant in servers - got anything to do with boosting Power? Surely it means it is yet another area where IBM couldn't make Power or a Cell derivative work?

Teaming up at Merrimack
Central Catholic’s star point guard Nadeshka Bridgewater, an upcoming senior, has accepted a scholarship to play at Division 1 Merrimack College. When she arrives in 2020, she’ll join up with former Raider teammate Kaylee Thomas, who’ll be a sophomore, plus former MVC rival Alyssa Casey of Andover, who’ll be a senior.
Bridgewater was an Eagle-Tribune All-Star who averaged 8.7 ppg this past winter.
Timberlane golf’s dynamic duo of Jack Pepin and Matt Gover each shot a 2-under 70 to earn the recent Eagle Division Junior championship at Hoodkroft. Both are upcoming juniors for the Owls.
Walk(er) this way
Hard not to feel encouraged after reading newest Celtic Kemba Walker’s recent article in the Player’s Tribune. What struck me the most in the piece was one of the first members of the Charlotte community he thanked was longtime season-ticket holders Elizabeth and Mike Peeler. He met the elderly couple — just fans of the team — during his rookie season, and quickly developed a strong friendship.
They would talk before games, and it got to the point where the Peelers would invite Walker over for dinner once a year. “Mrs. Peeler’s homemade brownies ... I’ll be missing those for sure,” said Walker.
That certainly sounds like an athlete I’d want representing my community.
Another one for Keane
North Andover’s Sebastian Keane picked up one more award to end his legendary senior season, being named the Frank Carey Player of the Year by the Massachusetts Baseball Coaches Association. The Red Sox draft pick had an 11-1 record with a 0.50 ERA and 128 strikeouts in leading the Knights to the Super 8 title.
Brooks girls basketball picked up a pair of new recruits for the upcoming season. Samantha Dewey, a 6-foot-1 forward, is transferring in from Melrose, and Taina Mair, a 5-8 guard, is transferring from the Holderness School.
Windham’s Brandon Dufault is off to a fine start pitching for the Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox in the prestigious Cape Cod League. The 6-5 right-hander has made four relief appearances, allowing an earned run in 5.1 innings of work (1.68 ERA) with five strikeouts.
This will be a huge summer and upcoming spring season at Northeastern for Dufault, who is draft eligible next year.
Silveira shines in Cali
Phillips three-sport star Maddy Silveira of Andover recently advanced with the FC Stars U18/19 soccer all-star team to the ECNL national title game in Del Mar, California. Her team lost, 6-1, breaking a 26-game winning streak, but it was still a great run for Silveira and her teammates.

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) leader Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain on Friday termed Prime Minister (PM) Nawaz Sharif as a facilitator of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief, further stating that those who uttered anti-Pakistan statements and those who served as their facilitators should be tried under Article-6 of the constitution.
Shujjat Hussain lambasted the PM and stated that he (Prime Minister Nawaz) cannot be declared inncocent after he simply issued a single statement in response to MQM chief’s shameful remarks. He said that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had failed to secure national interests.
“PM proved through his reaction that he served as a facilitator in the whole case and tried to protect the culprits,” the PML-Q leader said, further adding that PM Nawaz took oath to safeguard the country’s integrity but failed doing so.
Shujaat Hussain demanded a trial according to the constitution against those who uttered disgraceful words against Pakistan’s sovereignty, its integrity and national security along with the PM who did not took action against such individuals.

Don't miss anything
Welcome to the most important museum in the world, a historical monument of humanity. The Louvre covers with a large collection of sculptures, paintings, and classical art.
If we do not see the glass pyramid maybe we do not recognize the building, which in turn is already a monument in itself. It is necessary to think geographically that Paris was concentrated in the Island of the Cité and here King Philippe Auguste in 1180 builds a fortress, to the west and outskirts of the city, to protect Paris from invasions of the Seine. Due to the urban expansion of the city, the fortress lost the defensive function and in 1546 Francisco I began major renovation works to transform it into a Renaissance palace for the kings of France. The Louvre has undergone continuous changes since then, where each king or emperor wanted to make his mark.
During the French Revolution in 1793, the revolutionaries saw the Louvre as the symbol of the monarchy and decide to transform it into a museum so that all people can have access to the royal collections. Napoleon increases the collection of works with his military campaigns. In the '80s, while France saw other cities around the world taking visitors away from their museums, a major renovation project started, promoted by President François Mitterrand. In 1989, to celebrate 200 years of the French Revolution, they inaugurated the glass pyramid of architect Ming Pei, a highly controversial work within French society, but which today became a symbol of world tourism.
Most visited: The Mona Lisa, Radeau de la Méduse, Winged Victory of Samothrace, Venus de Milo. The collection of large formats is a must.

Link between farming and global warming
Dear Daktari, I was recently reading reports on global warming. I was shocked that cattle and especially cattle contribute to it with belching which produces methane. Is there anything that can be done to help cows emit less methane? [Josephat Ambunya, Vihiga County]
Dear Ambunya, yes, cattle are the main source of methane; one of the greenhouse gases. This is produced during fermentation. Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases, causing atmospheric temperatures to rise. The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. Carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide come mainly from burning fossil fuels like coal, natural gas and oil, solid waste. Carbon dioxide is absorbed/sequestered from the atmosphere by plants.
Livestock as a source of greenhouse gases
Cattle have entered the global warming debate because of the third gas – methane. Livestock is the main source of methane production. The amount of methane emitted depends on the number of animals, the type of digestive system and the amount of food consumed. Ruminants, namely cattle, sheep, goats and camels, are the biggest producers of methane. They do this through methanogens – microbes that digest food and emit methane as a byproduct (enteric fermentation).
How can farmers reduce greenhouse gas emissions from livestock?
While livestock are a major emitter of methane, reducing their numbers will appear to be a good strategy. But this will counteract the great role livestock play in ensuring food security and may not be practical. For this reason, measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions should modify enteric fermentation to reduce emissions while increasing livestock productivity by increasing digestive efficiency. Raising animals with the right diet and dietary supplements can help reduce methane emissions. Research shows that there are animal breeds that emit relatively little methane (methanogenesis) per unit of food absorption capacity. Research on animal husbandry shows promising results when it comes to methane production. The data shows that it is possible to achieve up to 20% methane reduction. Now, no farmer will buy such a breed if that is the only benefit he will get; so if this breed improvement can be linked to increased feed conversion efficiency and therefore better production, it may be a good selling point.
A number of dietary supplements and dietary alternatives are being researched in hopes of helping to reduce greenhouse gases by manipulating enteric fermentation. They include oils, certain plants with natural steroids, fats, probiotics, nitrates, enzymes, sea algae. Improved pastures are closely linked to feed supplements and feed alternatives. Good pastures are low in fiber and easy to digest. Fiber-rich foods ferment slowly and therefore produce more methane per unit of food digested. More leguminous feeds when mixed with other feeds will improve the diet of animals, increase their growth rate and productivity and further reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Good breeding has the effect of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It has the advantage of increased production and productivity.

Fourth Generation mobile telecommunication technology is the latest instalment in a series of mobile services, each better than the last. Before we look at how to tell whether your handset is 4G enabled or not we'll quickly recap the question ‘what exactly is 4G and what improvements does it bring from the 3G era?’.
The 4G network offers users unparalleled speed when accessing the web from a mobile, tablet or laptop, in fact the standard rate set for users averages speeds of 6mbit/s compared to 3G's 1mbit/s. This speed fluctuates between 5 to 7 times faster than before and is considerably closer to the speeds users will experience with home broadband packages. Due to this rather vast increase in speed users can expect a more reliable and much improved service when streaming, downloading and gaming. 4G also offers users a range of other services that have become second nature to modern living including HD mobile TV, cloud computing and video conferencing. To round off the numerous advantages 4G has over its predecessor, 4G offers a much wider ranging and more stable network than 3G, meaning your internet connection is stronger and will not slow down suddenly during use. In short 4G's main feature is an ultra-broadband internet service which is currently available on a range of smart phones and USB wireless modems.
How do you know if you have a 4G phone?
So the first thing to consider when establishing whether your phone is 4G enabled is whether or not it is a smart phone? If the answer is yes then it is simply a matter of how modern the model of the phone is. A handset which utilises a dual core processor is a good start with Samsung, HTC, LG, Nokia and Motorola all offering examples of 4G capable phones which meet the above criteria. Sony and the Apple iPhone series also have models which are 4G enabled and capable, with the trend set towards all major new releases in the smart phone industry to be 4G compatible in the future.
Is your phone 4G enabled?
One way of discovering whether you are already online with 4G is to go in to the settings options on your phone handset and find the network type; this should tell you whether you are currently using 4G or whether you're still with 3G. If you're still really not sure you can always check your phone for the 4G symbol, if it's there it will often next to the signal strength bars, then it's needless to say you're looking at a 4G capable phone, it's important to note that it will only be present if you have both data enabled and Wi-Fi disabled. Wi-Fi needs to be disabled due to the fact that in most phones a Wi-Fi connection will automatically override a data connection.
If you're convinced your smart phone is 4G capable but doesn't seem to be 4G enabled there a number of steps that can be followed. Firstly a quick visit to an internet search engine can provide the answers on whether the area you are currently in is covered by the 4G network or not. Secondly, if it is make sure you're network preferences are set to the correct option, this step will vary for each make, model and network provider. Finally a service provider’s website will usually have some answers in the FAQ's section which will often prompt a user to dial their call centre and follow a series of automated menus to enable 4G in the device.
Is your phone 4G enabled?
So a basic principle for discovering whether your phone is 4G capable and enabled is to first establish that it is a relatively modern device, possibly around a year old or newer and secondly to check the network settings in your handset configuration. Of course if you're really stuck a quick and effective method to get the answers you need is always to contact your service provider or handset supplier.
With the 4G network being the latest technology available and not to mention a vast improvement on the previous 3G network it is safe to say that until 5G is developed and made widely available all new smart phone model releases from reputable brands will be 4G enabled.


Something happens to Jonathon Linaberry. It’s hard to put your finger on it, but when the musician takes the stage, surrounded by his many instruments, suddenly creating sound, projecting noise, drumming up long-gestating emotions, you know he’s transformed; a sense of purpose and poise envelops the air. “It’s very easy to be a different person when it comes to this project,” says Linaberry, who performs and completely inhabits the persona of the early-twentieth-century blues musician, The Bones of J.R. Jones. “For me it’s an outlet more than anything else.”
It’s via the live show that The Bones of J.R. Jones has established itself as a spellbinding musical force: there’s Linaberry, all by his lonesome, playing several instruments – guitar, banjo, bass drum, high-hat – all at once, transforming any setting, no matter how visibly modern, into an old-time roadside juke joint. Now, over several years performing, the traveling troubadour has refined his craft so poignantly as to craft a batch of highly refined, barn-burning blues and folk numbers. They take the form of Dark Was The Yearling, The Bones of J.R. Jones’ mesmerizing new LP.
The first full-length effort, both jarring and meditative in its juxtaposition of snarling electric guitar licks (“Fury of the Light”), banjo backbeats (“St. James’ Bed”) and acoustic charm (“The Plan”), is bookended by twin takes on the foot-stomping “Dreams to Tell.”
“That songs never gets old to me,” says Linaberry. “I felt like the album needed two versions of it… for better or worse.” The album’s highlight however, is undoubtedly “The Dark,” a somber ode to the musician’s late grandfather. The harmonic hymnal, written in the hours following the passing of a man whom Linaberry describes as “very much the patriarch” of his family, ended up shaping the entirety of the album, “giving it a much more heavier sound near the end of it.
“That was one of those rare instances that a song did come out in 24 hours,” Linaberry says o

I picked up a copy of this book for two reasons; I have never seen this version before and I have been curious about Pride and Predjuice and Zombies. However I don’t do zombies in any way shape or form. Not my cuppa. I dig sea monster movies and adventure novels. Loved Peter Benchely’s Creature, the book was awesome, don’t bother with the horrible movie mess. 😬 Kronos by Jeremy Robinson, who also wrote Anatarkas Rising. And Steven Alten’s Megalodon books. Very enjoyable reads. So I felt I would be a suitable reader.
Since I wanted to try Ms. Jane Austen again I thought this might be a better way in vs the orginal book. I must say the world is in a right mess when the book opens and it takes some time to get used to the new normal. All sea life has gone man eater mad and wants nothing more than the death, destruction and dismemberment of the human race. Odd premise, but I was willing to go with it. Ms. Austen’s words and voice are meshed nicely with the coauthor Ben H. Winters.
I did feel I was missing some rather important details by not having read the orginal story first. There were some interplays between characters that seemed to have been lost under the constraints of the sea monster theme. Or maybe it was me. One interesting thing is the loss of one seemingly important character, Maragret the youngest sibling. What happened or did she vanish in the orgnial story too?
All in all it seems to be a diverting and fun way to spend a few nights reading. I think a fun twist would be update the story leaving the sea monsters in place. See how well cell phones and the victorian sensibilities would mesh.

We are all familar with the story. Knight goes to fight the dragon, rescue the fair maiden and get rich off the dragon’s treasure. A less familar tale is dragon eats knight, fair maiden rescues herself and everybody except Sir Hor Douvre, lives happily ever after. And the treasure is a wonderous treasure of books, not shiny gold pieces. Sound familar no, didn’t think so.
However this treasure does exist in most places the world over. Spectacular libraries filled with life changing tomes new and old. A wealth of knowledge and wisdom, filled to the brim with unique artifacts of our history. People, young and old, can find something that sparks their interest and inspires them to action. Musems are also treasure troves, but that’s another post. The United States Library of Congress holds millions of items; maps, books, movies, audio recordings, newspapers and personal letters of historical people. Right now you can pull up letters that Thomas Jefferson wrote online via your computer, tablet, smart phone or in person. Maps from the 1500s, can you imagine the cartographers making those maps. These items are connections to our past and insight to our future. We need these connections to ensure we do not forget the lessons our forefathers have taught and to see the possibilities alive in our time. The trumphs we can accomplish and the obsticles and challeges we can and will meet head on.
Civilations have come and gone, empires have been forges and destroyed on the strength of their people and their leaders. Rome fell because the people stopped learning, caring and innovativing. Instead they became distracted with pursuits of leasure and pleasure. The empires of France and Britian fell becauae of courpt kings and leaders. We the people of the world need to learn from the treasure troves we have been gifted so our societies may grow and prosper.
When I was a child my mom read stories to us at bedtime. A fairly common practice, although I have no clue if electronics have stolen those precious moments. I can hope that bedtime stories are still sacred times when child and parent come together over the pages a book. Another discussion for another post. Anyway my favorite stories came from a book of fairy tales that is now ragged and showing its age. I believe my imagination and love of magic came from this book. There were many hours I spent listening to my mom read and then spent more time reading the familar stories on my own. My favorite was a story called the Patchwork Quilt.
In the story which took place in a land of snow and cold an old grandmother spent nights telling her grandson stories while she sewed the quilt for his bed. An there was an evil wizard who stole the quilt for the magic the old grandma had sewn into every stitch. Needless to say good trumps evil and the quilt finds its way home.
These stories had the classics, Red Riding Hood, The Frog Princess and others. And other less familar tales like the Patchwork Quilt. All of these stories had bright pictures, magic and a moral, important elements for holding a squirming child’s attention. I believe this book and these stories have more teach me, not just about letting my imagination and magic, but about writing and story construction. The words are simple easy for a child learning to read. Those same words are vivid and bring these stories to life. So many nights my dreams were filled with the weavings of this book.
I hope to inspire you to reach back into your childhood and recall a book or story that fueled your wonder and awe of the written word. Take a new look at the fairytales people have been telling and see what they can teach you about our writing craft. Cheers, james
I just inked up a nice Hero 7022 with a nice purple ink. The nib is a medium fine and the ink flows nice901.The 7022 is a nice weight, heavier and slightly thicker than the Hero 221, yet lighter and slimer than the Hero 901. The 7022 is a good compromise between the 221 and the 901. The ink flow is almost as bold as the 901 and the nib writes and draws smoothly across the page. It has a piston fill converter included and will accept cartridges. However I haven’t tried using them.
I am pleased that I bought two of these pens for gifts. They are a lovely red and gold solid metal bodied pen. The cap is tight fitting and posts securely. Overall a very nice fountain pen.
Cheers on this chilly evening, james
I read a poem the other day by Pamela A. Harazim called Strangers in the Box. The poem references the old photos that get passed down that nobody knows anything about. She ends the poem with our photos one day could be the strangers if we don’t leave our stories behind. Letters, scrapbooks, photo albums, journals are all ways of leaving our stories for those that come after we have shucked our mortal coil.

You take one question per week and write as much or as little as you want. The questions cover topics about your childhood, family, work and what makes you unique.
Both poem and challenge are timely, I have been struggling trying to put together a family history that I could gift to my mom, my uncle and sister. These books are going to be part memior, part photo album, part scrapbook and I want it to be in a binder so pages can be added as time goes by. A big task to be sure however I feel it is a worthwhile endeavor. I have two nieces and two nephews that never had the chance to know our grandparents. Grandma is lost in a Aletimerz daze. And Grandaddy pasted away three years ago. They don’t know the vibrant people that Grandma and Grandaddy were back in their prime. That said me and my sister don’t know what they were like as a young couple or parents. And I don’t want them to become lost in the mists of time and strangers in an old dusty photo album. At least with these books there will be stories to connect them no matter how much time passes. And if they are added to then the story continues with them. High hopes for a family history treasury becauae that is what I want it to become. A treasure trove of family memories. Priceless.
Since I found the 52 questions I am going to given them to family and ask them to fill them out and give them back so I can incorporate those memories with mine. I mourn the loss of my grandparents’ memories and wisdom, but I know they live on through the ones left behind that knew and loved them.
Cheers on this chilly Sunday evening, james

Buhari again declines assent to 5 bills
President Muhammadu Buhari, yesterday, declined assent to five more bills that were passed by the National Assembly and forwarded to him to sign into law.
In separate letters addressed to the Senate President, Bukola Saraki and read at Plenary yesterday, President Buhari listed the latest rejected Bills as Nigerian Film Corporation Bill, Immigration (Amendment) Bill, Climate Change Bill, Chattered Institute of Pension Practitioners Bill as well as Digital Rights and Freedom Bill.
With yesterday’s development, the number of passed bills in the present 8th Senate and refused to be signed into law by the President, now puts the number at 26.
In the letter yesterday, President Buhari explained that it became imperative to reject the Immigration Bill because it would have adverse effect on Nigeria’s position on the Ease of Doing Business ranking, just as he said that the Chattered Institute of Pension Practitioners Bill amounted to duplication of functions with an existing institute.
Other bills earlier rejected by Buhari since 2015 include: the Petroleum Industry Governance Bill (PIGB), Stamp Duties (Amendment) Bill, Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill, Industrial Development (Income Tax Relief) (Amendment) Bill, National Research and Innovation Council (Est.) Bill, National Institute of Hospitality and Tourism (Est.) Bill and National Agricultural Seeds Council Bill.
Others are Chattered Institute of Entrepreneurship (Est.) Bill, Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences (Amendment) Bill, Subsidiary Legislation (Legislative Scrutiny) Bill, Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (Amendment) Bill as well as five constitution amendment bills. Also rejected are: National Transport Commission Bill, Federal Road Authority (Establishment) Bill, National Broadcasting Commission Amendment Bill, National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA) Act (Amendment) Bill and Federal Polytechnics Act (Amendment) Bill.
Recall that the Senate had earlier set up a Technical Committee on Declined Assent to Bills, chaired by Senator David Umaru, APC, Niger East to look into the rejected bills by the President. Although the Technical Committee laid its report in December last year, the report of the David Umaru-led panel even as at yesterday, is yet to be considered.
Also recall that Saraki had on September 10, 2018 announced the setting up of a technical committee to review 15 critical bills earlier rejected by President Buhari.
The Senate has however adjourned plenary for two weeks to last till April 2nd to allow for the Committee on Appropriations to allow Ministries, Heads of Parastatals defend the Appropriation bill for onward presentation at plenary.

Welcome to Manglaur, a historical town located in the Haridwar district of Uttarakhand, India. Known for its rich cultural heritage and fascinating history, Manglaur offers a unique travel experience for visitors. From ancient forts to beautiful mosques, this town has a lot to offer for history enthusiasts. Join us as we explore the captivating charm of Manglaur and discover why it should be on your travel itinerary.
Manglaur is a town with a municipal board, situated on National Highway-58 (Delhi–Haridwar). It is conveniently located just 175 km away from Delhi and about 10 km from Roorkee. The town is easily accessible and serves as a perfect getaway destination for a weekend trip.
History buffs will be delighted to know that Manglaur has a significant historical background. The town was once the capital of King Mangal Sen, and his influence can still be seen today in various landmarks and symbols. The brick fort, built during the reign of King Vikramaditya, stands as a testament to the town’s glorious past. The fort has a rich history and is now known as Mohalla Quila. It is surrounded by bustling markets and roads, adding to its charm.
One of the highlights of Manglaur is the Tehseel Wali Masjid, located near the Middle Oriental School. This mosque holds historical importance and is a must-visit for those interested in architecture and religious sites. The Masjid was built by Gyasuddeen Balban, and its walls still bear the kutba (sermon) of the king. The town also houses the Shah Vilayat Masjid, which served as a Qila (fort) during the British era.
Manglaur has a fascinating mix of cultures, with a significant Muslim population. The entry of Muslims into the town dates back to the reign of Sultan Sebüktegin, who conquered Manglaur and established a Madrassa for Muslim education. The town became a center for Islamic learning and played a crucial role during the Great Indian Rebellion against British rule. Today, Manglaur is home to a well-established Muslim community and is the only majority Muslim region in Uttarakhand.
Apart from its historical significance, Manglaur also offers a unique cultural experience. The town is home to various ancient mohallas (neighborhoods) such as Lal Bag, Jain Gali, and Kathaira, which still have old buildings that serve as a witness to its vibrant history. The Manglaur Nagar Palika Parishad has a population of over 52,000 and offers a glimpse into the demographics of the town.
Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a culture lover, or simply seeking a peaceful getaway, Manglaur has something for everyone. Immerse yourself in the town’s rich heritage, explore its ancient forts and mosques, and experience the warmth of its people. Manglaur is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

- Serves 3
- Prep in 5 minutes
- Cook in 10 minutes
I mean sure they’re crispy on the outside but that tends to be it, they’re kind of meh from there on out.
Oh how wrong I was my friends, oh how wrong indeed.
The inherent issue with pre-made waffles is that they are very superficial in terms of what they contain, when I say a crisp exterior is all I got from them that pretty much sums up the level of thought & ingenuity their creators have gone to. They are merely there to convey whatever toppings you choose to adorn them with to your mouth & that’s about it.
But that totally undervalues the potential of what a waffle can be as a thing. As the following recipe will hopefully show!
- Family Friendly
- Freezer Friendly
- High Protein, High Fibre, No Sugar
- Prep Ahead
1/2 cup apple purée
2 organic eggs
1/4 cup cassava flour or ground oats (blitz in a food processor to form a fine flour)
1 heaped tablespoon tapioca flour (or use ground almonds)
2 tablespoons milk of choice (I use Plenish cashew milk)
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
To Serve – extra apple purée, yoghurt, tahini or nut butter, berries, pomegranate, apple or banana slices + nuts & seeds.
Preheat your waffle iron, I use a VonShef 3in1 & find it brilliant.
Blend all the waffle ingredients to a smooth batter (if using oats rather than cassava flour then leave the batter to sit for 5-10 minutes before using, giving it a good mix at the end of that time) then spoon in 1/4 cup per waffle.
Cook for 7-8 mins & keep warm in a low oven whilst you repeat with the rest of the mix.
Serve with your toppings.

After Cosco’s much publicized investment in Piraeus, China’s macroeconomic management agency, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), is promoting new investments in western Attica, primarily in the port of Elefsina.
NDRC’s official agenda of talks with the Greek government includes the prospect of a Chinese investment at Elefsina port, the participation of a Chinese group in the construction of new infrastructure planned for the port and the upgrading of the rail link “so as to release the full potential of the port of Elefsina.” It also includes the development of local and possibly international supply chain hubs.
The port industry has been aware of the Chinese interest for some time, with research being conducted into new areas for the expansion of Cosco’s shipping and port activities in the region, particularly related to dry-bulk cargo, an area in which Piraeus Port Authority does not currently have a presence. This interest is also related to the planned expansion of the shipbuilding and repair industry.
Developments are speeding up now as state sell-off fund TAIPED is promoting the utilization of the 10 regional ports in its portfolio with the hiring of consultants, while the vice president of NDRC visited Athens last month to discuss bilateral cooperation.

Peggy Siegal a self-published Author wrote the book "How to Look Like Me at 70." In the book she points out 'toe reductions' from a specific doctor friend.
Siegal writes in the guide,
“Dr. Levy guarantees relief from corns and bunions. If you clock as many miles as I do running up and down the red carpet, corns are a major concern.”
Photo: Getty Images
Levy, of NYC’s Park 56 Podiatry, told the New York Post that the procedure Siegal refers to in her book isn’t quite a 'reduction.' It's actually straightening out toe bones if a patient has a hammertoe, and removal of corns and other deformities. Hammertoes can cause pain, especially if the bent bones are jammed into too-small shoes, but surgery is often elective, performed so a patient has better-looking feet and prettier shoe options.
Despite individuals doing this, experts warn that the procedure is riskier than some other treatments and advise individuals to search for roomier footwear instead.

Medical malpractice cases can be complex and difficult to prove, particularly when it comes to establishing damages. If you or a loved one has been injured due to medical negligence in Florida, it’s essential to understand how to prove damages in a medical malpractice case. In this blog post, we’ll discuss the key elements of proving damages in a Florida medical malpractice case.
Establishing the standard of care
The first step in proving damages in a medical malpractice case is establishing the standard of care that the healthcare provider was required to meet. This means showing what a competent healthcare provider in the same situation would have done.
To establish the standard of care, you’ll need to hire an expert witness who has the same or similar qualifications and experience as the healthcare provider you’re suing. This expert witness will review your medical records and other evidence to determine whether the healthcare provider breached the standard of care.
Once you’ve established the standard of care, you’ll need to prove that the healthcare provider’s breach of that standard caused your injury or damages. This is called proving causation.
Proving causation can be challenging in medical malpractice cases because patients may have had pre-existing conditions or other factors that could have contributed to their injuries. Your expert witness will need to review your medical records and other evidence to determine whether the healthcare provider’s breach of the standard of care was the cause of your injuries.
Finally, you’ll need to prove the damages you suffered as a result of the healthcare provider’s breach of the standard of care. Damages can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.
To prove damages, you’ll need to provide documentation of your injuries and the expenses you’ve incurred as a result. This may include medical bills, records of lost wages, and testimony from medical experts about the long-term effects of your injuries.
Statute of limitations
It’s important to note that Florida has a statute of limitations for medical malpractice cases. This means that you have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit after the injury occurred. In Florida, the statute of limitations for medical malpractice cases is two years from the date the injury occurred, or two years from the date the injury was discovered or should have been discovered.
If you fail to file a lawsuit within the statute of limitations, you may lose your right to pursue compensation for your injuries.
Another important factor to consider in proving damages in a Florida medical malpractice case is comparative fault. Florida follows a comparative fault system, which means that if you are partially responsible for your injuries, your damages may be reduced in proportion to your level of fault.
For example, if you were injured as a result of medical malpractice but failed to follow your doctor’s instructions or failed to disclose relevant medical history, you may be found partially at fault for your injuries.
In such cases, the damages you are awarded may be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you. Therefore, it’s crucial to work with an experienced attorney who can help you build a strong case and minimize any potential for comparative fault.
Settlement vs. trial
Finally, it’s important to understand that not all medical malpractice cases go to trial. Many cases are resolved through settlement negotiations between the plaintiff and the defendant. Settlements can be a favorable option because they can avoid the time, expense, and uncertainty of a trial.
However, it’s important to work with an experienced attorney who can help you evaluate any settlement offers and negotiate a settlement that fully compensates you for your injuries.
Proving damages in a Florida medical malpractice case requires a thorough understanding of the legal and medical issues involved. If you or a loved one has been injured due to medical negligence, it’s important to work with an experienced attorney who can guide you through the process and help you pursue the compensation you des

The End of Japanese Cinema? Into a New Media Ecology after 1960.
There was a constant sense of crisis around Japanese cinema from the 1960s into the 2000s. Yet arguably film in Japan is more diverse and vibrant than ever before. How did film, and the film industry, react to the severe problems it faced from 1960 onward? This talk will sketch a brief history of recent film from Japan.

The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
We have so much to be thankful for this should always lead us to Rejoice in the Lord!
Thank you Lord for being so wonderful to us! We love that you answer our prayers, give us joy and peace! Thank you for all that you give us: for our salvation, for our family, our homes, our brothers and sisters in the Lord and the joy and peace that surpasses our understanding!

I’ve finally read a post on another blog which uses the term the rich in a way that I believe to be accurate and the blog is, of all places, Firedoglake. Ian Welsh writes:
Most rich people get most of their money from investments â€“ also known as unearned income.
That is exactly right but, unfortunately, Ian doesn’t continue his analysis to tell us how many households fit that description.
It isn’t the top quintile, the top 20% of households. That’s people making $97,000 or more and most people making $97,000 or thereabouts are professionals and managers who live off their salary or wages just like most people who earn half that much annually. There are even a few blue collar workers who make $97,000 a year.
It isn’t the top 1% of households. That’s people making $315,000 or more. Many doctors of medicine, some lawyers, and even some government workers make this amount. For example, the Chicago Chief of Police makes about that much. According to Chicago Magaqzine, the CEO of WTTW, the Chicago Public Television station makes that much, as does the president of the Art Institute of Chicago and Michelle Obama, in her job as Vice president for community and external affairs, University of Chicago Hospitals.
To be in that rarified zone you’ve got to be in the top .1% of income earners, somebody like a professional athlete or a top executive in a Fortune 500 company, and there are about 150,000 of them all told. Many income earners in this group are Wall Street professional, yes, the same people who earned billions in commissions by packaging and selling subprime mortgages. And people in that income bracket are doing very, very well, indeed, doing better all the time.
One of these days I’ll write that post explaining how specific government policies and practices put in place over the last 50 years or so and technological advances have worked synergistically to make this so.
Note that I’m not disagreeing with Ian on this: I don’t think we should be making policies that primarily benefit people in that income bracket but I think that we need to be very careful if we readjust our policies so that our targets aren’t the vast majority of Americans who are making much,much less.
One final word of caution: The rich, by my judgment, are those who are in the top 1% of income earners and who derive the preponderance of their incomes through unearned income. We certainly wouldn’t want to characterize somebody who made, say, less than $35,000 a year, his or her entire income, from unearned income as rich. It’s both how much you make and how you make it. I haven’t been able to nail down the exact number of people who fit this description but I suspect it’s very, very few.


Opinion: Hillary Clinton’s “don’t ask” policy
This article was originally on a blog post platform and may be missing photos, graphics or links. See About archive blog posts.
As she races through Iowa in the days before next week’s caucuses, Hillary Clinton is taking few chances. She tells crowds that it’s their turn to “pick a president,’’ but over the last two days she has not invited them to ask her any questions.
Before the brief Christmas break, the New York senator had been setting aside time after campaign speeches to hear from the audience. Now when she’s done speaking, her theme songs blare from loudspeakers, preventing any kind of public Q&A.
She was no more inviting when a television reporter approached her after a rally on Thursday and asked if she was “moved’’ by Benazir Bhutto’s assassination. Clinton turned away without answering.
Her daughter, Chelsea, had the same reaction when a reporter approached her with a question.
Hillary Clinton’s no-question policy didn’t sit well with some of the Iowans who came to see her speak.
“I was a little bit underwhelmed,’’ said Doug Rohde, 46, as he left a rally at a fire station in Denison. “The message was very generic -- and no questions.’’
Clinton campaign officials said that she may take questions in the coming days. But her focus is on seeing as many voters as possible before the caucuses next Thursday -- and spotlighting the messages she wants to deliver.
Spokespeople for her two main rivals in the Hawkeye State -– John Edwards and Barack Obama -– said the candidates would continue fielding questions as they troll for support.

We packed up in the bus, selected several kilos of fish and shrimps, and then relaxed on the carpeted floor to await our feast. The evening was beautiful and it was nice to sit outside even covered with an abaya. We devoured the parrotfishes, groupers, shrimps, flatbread, rice, hummus, and tabouleh. My belly was so full, I almost, almost said no to the Konafa dessert.

The United States has been supporting Turkey with military aid for years. This is reminiscent of our support in the past of Iran and Iraq. Our support of Turkey has been justified by the naive notion that it would prevent a future fundamentalist government. Well, now the newly elected fundamentalist prime minister of Turkey has shown his country's appreciation for our assistance by signing an agreement with Iran for natural gas just weeks after the passage of the U.S. Iran-Libya Oil Sanctions Act.
Just days ago in Cyprus, a peaceful demonstration against the illegal Turkish occupation of Cyprus was held by an international group of bikers. A 24-year-old man got stuck in barbed wire trying to enter a buffer zone and was beaten to death by members of a Turkish terrorist group called the "Gray Wolves" sent to occupied Cyprus from Turkey in anticipation of the demonstration. Two days later, this man's cousin went to lay a wreath on the site of the brutal murder, and Turkish troops shot and killed the cousin.
Will we never learn from our mistakes? Must we always "back the wrong horse"? Is there any reason to support a country with the horrific human-rights record that Turkey has? Is there any reason to back a country that uses American military aid to inflict punishment on its own citizens and for aggressive activity against United States allies such as Cyprus and Greece?
Enough is enough! No more aid to Turkey!

Today, Olivia Chow became the first mayoral candidate to respond to the survey we sent out on July 8th regarding matters that are important to Toronto taxpayers: taxation rates, size of council, infrastructure, transit and congestion, labour relations, and emergency preparation.
We’d like to thank Olivia Chow for her swift response well ahead of the deadline.
This survey is an important tool for voters to help make up their minds ahead of the election this October. We look forward to receiving responses from the other campaigns in the near future.
We’d also like to take a moment to clarify our position on the Scarborough subway.
The truth is, we’ve fought long and hard for the public transit capacity Scarborough deserves in the 21st century. Scarborough is not just a small neighbourhood. The 625,698 inhabitants of Scarborough make the suburb more populous than Vancouver, Canada’s 8th largest city. Scarborough has far too often been left out of the discussion on policy and infrastructure.
That’s why in 2012, we petitioned Premier Dalton McGuinty with roughly 4000 signatures to allow a free vote in the legislature on the fate of a Scarborough subway. When he rebuffed us, we handed it to the opposition Progressive Conservatives. Toronto Taxpayers Coalition also took out ads on TTC buses and streetcars in support of our subway petition. Then, we held a debate in Scarborough where we invited panelists from all sides of the issue to participate.
Our members and supporters were overwhelmingly in favour of expanding Toronto’s subway network to Scarborough. This is an important investment to make in Toronto, and it’s important we don’t want to undercut Toronto’s future infrastructure needs. It’s unfortunate Olivia Chow disagrees with us, but we have faith the electorate will see it differently.
Once again we thank Olivia Chow for her response. It’s important for taxpayers to have the full range of candidate positions when they cast their ballots.

House Judiciary Committee Democrats were set to hold a key vote to adopt the two articles of impeachment against President Trump, following an ongoing all-day marathon hearing in which seemingly no topic — from Hunter Biden’s drug use to a Republican congressman’s past drunken-driving arrest — was off-limits.
In a striking moment, Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., claimed that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky looked “as if his daughter was downstairs in the basement, duct-taped” when he publicly undermined Democrats’ case by sitting across from Trump at the United Nations in September and declaring that he felt no undue pressure from the president to conduct any political investigations.
“There’s an imbalance of power in that relationship,” Johnson said, as some attendees laughed.
There was even some intrigue during breaks in the proceedings when a member of the media was caught on camera furtively taking a photograph of Democrats’ private documents. He was later escorted out of the Capitol building. (“Media spy games,” House Intelligence Committee ranking member Devin Nunes, R-Calif., wrote on Twitter.)
It remained unclear how long the markup would last. “Look, we’re gonna be here a long time tonight,” Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Doug Collins, R-Ga., told reporters when asked whether the White House Congressional Ball in the evening might affect the schedule. “Don’t let anybody worry. There are plenty of balls we can go to, so if anybody thinks that’s in our midst, don’t worry about it.”
Fox News expects that, once the articles are adopted by the Judiciary Committee, likely on a party-line vote, they will find their way to the House Rules Committee, which controls access to the House floor. The Rules Committee is expected to craft a rule next week to set parameters for the impeachment debate. Then, sometime next week, the full House will debate and vote formally on the articles of impeachment of the president — which, if successful, would send the matter to the GOP-controlled Senate for a trial and virtually certain acquittal.
All eyes have been on the 31 moderate House Democrats from districts Trump won in 2016, most of whom have remained mum on how they’ll vote, as support for impeachment has flatlined in several battleground-state polls.
During the day’s markup, as members debated the language of the impeachment resolutions, Republicans repeatedly pointed out that Trump was not accused of any offense actually defined anywhere by law: neither “abuse of power” nor “obstruction of Congress” was a recognized federal or state crime.
Early in the hearing, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., supported Ohio GOP Rep. Jim Jordan’s amendment to strike Democrats’ “abuse of power” article of impeachment entirely, arguing, “There was no impeachable offense here.”
But, Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., responded that impeachment articles did not necessarily have to include statutory crimes — and that Trump’s actions would satisfy criminal statutes such as bribery anyway.
This led Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, to retort, “Well then, why aren’t they in this impeachment document?”
Democrats had floated the idea of formally accusing Trump of bribery, after focus groups suggested voters would like that term more. But, the idea fell out of favor after news of the focus group leaked, and analysts pointed out that Trump’s conduct didn’t seem to constitute bribery.
Later in the day, Gohmert observed that the Trump administration ultimately provided lethal aid to Ukraine, unlike former President Barack Obama, who also withheld military aid to Ukraine and “just let people die over there” by providing only nonlethal assistance.
Gohmert went on to object to the “obstruction of Congress” article of impeachment as “tyrannical,” saying it violated separation-of-powers principles for Congress to impeach the president whenever he failed to cooperate fully with their investigations.
Under Obama, the White House repeatedly refused Republicans’ document requests concerning the “Fast and Furious” gunrunning scandal, leading Congress to hold then-Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt. No impeachment proceedings were commenced.
Democrats countered that it simply was not “credible” that Trump was withholding aid to Ukraine for legitimate anticorruption evidence, even though he also withheld $100 million in assistance to Lebanon this year.
“The president has been talking about foreign corruption and the misuse of American taxpayers’ [funds]” since before the 2016 election, Louisiana GOP Rep. Mike Johnson said, emphasizing that it was in-character for the president to rein in excess spending for NATO and elsewhere.
“Everybody knows the president s concerned about the misuse of taxpayer dollars overseas. It’s one of his primary driving forces. It’s one of his main talking points… Oh, Ukraine, the third-most corrupt nation in the world, is the only one he wasn’t concerned about? It just doesn’t make sense. Let’s stop with the games.”
At a particularly heated moment in the hearing, Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., brought up Hunter Biden’s admitted past substance abuse issues — and Johnson, D-Ga., shot back by alluding to Gaetz’s own past arrest for drunken driving.
Gaetz was arguing that Biden was incompetent and corrupt, citing his lucrative job on the board of the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings while his father was overseeing Ukraine policy as vice president. The impeachment inquiry began after Trump suggested the Ukrainians look into Joe Biden’s successful effort to pressure Ukraine to fire its top prosecutor by withholding $1 billion in critical U.S. aid — at a time when Burisma was under criminal scrutiny.

It was pretty short-sighted of Gene to not have a cast member be chief engineer from the beginning. Did he seriously think it was a good idea to make it a revolving door?
IMO, he wanted TNG to be different from TOS. Data was really the immediate go-to guy for questions and reports about the engines, so the need for a permanent character to be the actual chief engineer wasn't all that great in the beginning (heck, TNG wouldn't even have had an engineering set at all if Roddenberry hadn't quickly wrote in a scene there in the pilot--the show wouldn't have had the money to build the set later in the first season).
"In-universe"--and in hindsight--it could be a case that during the first year of the Enterprise
's operation, several chief engineers trained on the vessel and familiarized themselves with her then many new systems before going on to other ships.

New Hydrocodone Containing Products reclassification joint statement BON/TMB/TSBP posted to BON website.
Date Created:Thur, Sept 19, 2014
The Texas Board of Nursing, Texas Medical Board and Texas State Board of Pharmacy advise their respective licensees that the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) published a final rule reclassifying hydrocodone combination products (HCPs) as Schedule II controlled substances. The reclassification becomes effective on October 6, 2014. HCPs include products such as Lortab®, Vicodin®, and Norco®.
All providers who order, dispense, or prescribe HCPs in the state of Texas must comply with requirements for prescribing Schedule II medications as set forth in state and federal law beginning on October 6, 2014. Advanced practice registered nurses and physician assistants may only prescribe hydrocodone combination products when providing care to hospice patients or practicing in hospital facility based practices as provided for in Chapter 157.0511(b-1) of the Texas Occupations Code and if registered with DEA and DPS to prescribe Schedule II controlled substances.
It is important for all prescribers, pharmacists, and pharmacy staff to be aware that prescriptions written for HCPs on or after October 6, 2014, must be written on a DPS official prescription form and no refills may be authorized. Any prescriptions for HCPs that are dispensed before October 6, 2014, that have additional refills authorized may be dispensed in accordance with state and federal law. The allowance to dispense these refills expires on April 8, 2015.
The Boards of Nursing, Medicine and Pharmacy also remind their respective licensees that the DEA classified tramadol as a Schedule IV controlled substance. This change became effective on August 18, 2014. All prescribers and pharmacy personnel must comply with requirements for ordering, prescribing and handling Schedule IV medications as set forth in state and federal law.
