Moral Injury: The Hidden Scars of Trauma
If we remember the morally injured on this Memorial Day, then perhaps we should also take a moment to critically examine the values that shape our collective ideas about goodness.

If you plan to play Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn and also love those fluffy plushies you’re in for a treat, at least if you plan to take advantage of the game’s extensive housing feature.
Well. I'm not big into plushies but its nice to fans of the game getting something.
It's a shame they usually charge an arm and a leg for the stuff tho.
We're talking about in-game stuffed animals for housing, not actual real life plushies.
So no life sized stuffed mithras? Now I'm sad.
Doesn't mean we won't get any real plushies, but the news is about in-game ones :D

Philology and Criticism contrasts the Mahābhārata’s preservation and transmission within the Indian scribal and commentarial traditions with Sanskrit philology after , as German Indologists proposed a critical edition of the Mahābhārata to validate their racial and nationalist views. Vishwa Adluri and Joydeep Bagchee show how, in. New Book: The Chronology of India: From Manu to Mahabharata By Vedv eer Arya Published by Aryabhata Publications - Buy this book: Book Summary: Indian historical tradition reckons the chronology from Svāyambhuva Manu to the Mahābhārata era in terms of the elapsed number of Manvantaras and Mahāyugas (Chaturyugas). A new selection from the national epic of India Originally composed in Sanskrit sometime between BC and AD, The Mahabharata-with one hundred thousand stanzas of verse-is one of the longest poems in the heart of the saga is a conflict between two branches of a royal family whose feud culminates in a titanic eighteen-day battle/5(56). The Mahābhārata, Book by Book. Of the Mahābhārata's eighteen books, only the first nine and Books will be summarized in any detail. That takes one to the end of the fighting of the Mahābhārata war and the last Books to include upākhyānas.
Mahābhārata has always been the dominant cultural text of Ancient Bhāratavarṣa to stir the imagination of different ages. In this article, I venture to study the interpretation of Mahābhārata and the Woman of Mahābhārata during Colonial Rule, with the intention to understand the dialogic process between a colonized culture and colonizer culture. For beginners and enthusiasts of the Mahabharata, this book would undoubtedly prove to be a well justified and a rational choice. This book is truly a masterpiece by the grand old scholar C. Rajagopalachari and a testimony to his genius is the continued circulation of this book for more than half a century since its was first published/5. RĀMĀYAṆA AND MAHĀBHĀRATA PAINTINGS. RĀMĀYAṆA AND MAHĀBHĀRATA PAINTINGS Stone and terra-cotta relief sculptures depicting participants and episodes from the two great ancient Indian epics, the Rāmāyaṇa (Adventures of Rama) and the Mahābhārata ([War of the] Great Bharatas), were made as early as the fifth century for use in the iconographic . The study of philosophical terms and doctrines in the Mahābhārata touches not only on important aspects of the contents, composition and the historical contexts of the epic, but also on the historiography of Indian philosophy. General ideas about the textual history of the epic and the distinction between “didactic” and “narrative” parts have influenced the study of epic philosophy Cited by: 3.
The Epic Period derives its name from the two epics, theRāmāyaṇaand āmādyaṇadeals with the conflict of the Āryans with the then natives of India and of the penetration of the Āryan ābhāratarecords the conflict between two claimants to the throne, and besides reflecting the culture of the age the story is said to . The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India. It is of immense importance to the culture of the Indian subcontinent, and is a major text of Hinduism. Its discussion of human goals (artha or 'purpose', kama or 'pleasure', dharma or 'duty', and moksha or 'liberation') takes place in a long-standing tradition, attempting to explain the relationship of /5(). Mahabharata is one of the foundational texts of Indian civilization. Along with Ramayana, it has transformed high abstract philosophies of the Upanishads into an aesthetically appealing literary work which has touched the hearts of millions of Indians and has further manifested as performing arts which has been lived and experienced by common people throughout Indian history. She is the author of the novels In the Aftermath (), About Daddy (), and Endless Rain (). She has also penned the children’s book The Puffin Book of Legendary Lives (). She is currently working on a book of Indian myths and folktales.

The energy sector must embrace diversity if it's to achieve the transition away from oil and gas, according to the CEO of Hitachi Energy UK & Ireland.
Speaking at Energy Futures Lab’s first Women in Energy event, Laura Fleming said that the successful transformation of the industry requires it to value different points of view and to grow in a way that better reflects society.
“We cannot do this with the current number of people who are working in the industry. We really see a huge opportunity to recruit more people into the industry, but also to make sure that the people we recruit come from all different aspects of society. At the end of the day, it is diversity of thought and minds that creates innovation.”
Laura was appointed CEO of Hitachi Energy UK & Ireland last year having spent over ten years at Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy where she held various senior roles including Global Business Development Director for Hydrogen and Hybrid Systems and Head of Wind Farm Solutions for North Europe and the Middle East.
Believe in yourself and don’t assume that the way that you think is the way that everyone else thinks. Laura Fleming CEO, Hitachi Energy UK & Ireland
Reflecting on her career to date, she said the sector’s lack of diversity can sometimes make it difficult for women to find peers and feel supported when expressing their views, and revealed how she felt like a 'fish out of water' when attending a conference in the early days of her new role:
“Honestly, when I was sat there the first day, I thought I had made a huge mistake taking this role and moving into this part of the industry,” she said. “I kind of had a talk with myself and said the reason why my boss hired me was because I can bring a different point of view and so I shouldn’t shy away from sharing that point of view.”
“I think as people, and particularly as women, we like to assimilate with the people around us. And that’s something I need to remind myself, to not do that.”
Asked about her advice for women entering careers in energy, she spoke about the importance of finding a mentor or coach, asking for help when you need it, and discovering your ‘superpower’. “Believe in yourself and don’t assume that the way that you think is the way that everyone else thinks,” she said.
During the event, which was chaired by MSc Sustainable Energy Futures student Naa Okailey Ayitey, Laura also highlighted the value of routine in daily life and the importance of taking time away from work to unwind and pursue other interests: “You have to be mindful that time for you as a human being is not infinite, so treat it with caution”.
Laura was the first guest in a new series which aims to turn the spotlight on the work of women in all areas of the energy sector and explore some of the challenges they face. To find out about future events in the series, join the Energy Futures Lab mailing list here.

I also have a BTV. It's the best shooting .22 I own including a CZ 453. It's just barely better than the 453 but every little bit helps. I've shot some groups with that Savage that are really hard to believe. I know because I've been called a liar on other boards for saying I shot them even though I shot quite a few groups that were similar. I'm talking about putting 4 out of 5 into a hole that was almost impossible to recognize that it wasn't one bullet hole at 50 yards. My one flyer pushed my group size out to .3" but I've shot several groups right around the .1" mark. If I had shot that one the same way I shot the other 4 I would have had a group that measured about .01". Like I said it's hard to believe. Those rifles can shoot though. I'm not the only one that gets results like that. I'll go ahead and post a scan of that target. I put 4 shots through the one hole and one trough the hole behind the numbers on the target. I posted the numbers for the 4 shots. I've shot other groups where I had 4 real tight and one not so tight too. My best overall group with the rifle was .111". The best group I've shot with the CZ was .108" but I haven't shot any groups like this with the CZ.

AES’s chief financial officer Kristina Lund, told a Panama investment forum in London in October, that the introduction of natural gas into Panama for the first time would allow it, and other import-dependent neighbours easy access to LNG supplies—prices for which tend to be less volatile than oil.
Panama is also looking to double its renewable energy capacity by 2050, much of which will go back into the country’s energy system to support an economy which grew by over 7% per year between 2001 and 2013, according to the World bank. Last year’s GDP growth slowed, but was still an impressive 4.9%.
“The bigger the (power generating) system, the less the volatility,” Ferrari said. “We would go from being a 1,500MW network in Panama to being a 10,000MW system in Central America. It will be more stable, and mitigate the risk of renewables.”

Gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have abducted seven officers of the Nigerian Navy in Edo State.
It was gathered that the officers were ambushed and kidnapped along Sapele-Warri road while travelling to Delta State from Kaduna State.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Kotongs Bello, confirmed the incident, saying the police were able to rescue five of them from the kidnappers.
The PPRO, who was unable to give details of the incident, said the command was working hard to ensure the remaining officers were also rescued unhurt.
Nigeria is currently reeling under the grip of bandits and kidnappers with several school abductions particularly in northern Nigeria and kidnappings for ransoms in the south.
Several school children and travellers are currently in kidnappers’ dens, as banditry is relatively becoming a booming criminal business.
The Boko Haram insurgents have also routinely abducted personnel of the Nigerian military, especially personnel of the Operation Hadan Kai who are involved in the counterinsurgency operations.

Tariffs hurt a much larger group of people than the small number of people they claim to help. In the short run, tariffs protect local producers and might be perceived as job savers. In the long run, they hurt consumers and the overall productivity of the economy.
Historically, Latin American policies failed to recognise the importance of stimulating intense competition to promote economic development and productivity. Their higher-than-average tariffs and import taxes due to economic isolation took a toll on development.
The good news is that after nearly 20 years of negotiations, the European Union (EU) and Mercosur announced a historic free-trade agreement during G20’s Summit on June 28th, 2019 in Brussels. This agreement strives to eliminate tariffs for 90% of traded products.
This agreement will create a trade bloc of almost 780 million people, accounting for 25% of the global economy. Tariff reductions will increase competition for Latin America in the years ahead, benefiting consumers immediately while also improving productivity levels over time.
The potential gains for both the EU and Mercosur are enormous. The matured markets of the EU will gain access to fast-growing markets in Latin America. Mercosur countries will acquire highly competitive, global markets allowing companies to match productivity levels at the economic frontier.
As a result of the free trade agreement, Euromonitor’s market size research reveals enormous opportunities. By 2023, EU countries and Mercosur will increase the beauty and personal care market by USD35.9 billion. The packaged food industry will increase by USD145 billion. Combined, the EU and Mercosur will represent the world’s largest markets across various consumer product industries.
This trade agreement opens a window of opportunity. With more freedom, Latin American can leave behind its historical isolation and get on the path of economic integration with the rest of the world.

Loan Companies in Shelby, NC (Bad Credit Accepted)
In a matter of minutes, you can fill in our form and may be matched with one of loan companies in Shelby, NC which will be ready to issue you a loan!
All you need is to have a device with a web browser and the whole process could easily be completed on-line.
Furthermore, if you have a poor credit score, your request won’t be automatically declined – so start applying now!
Your List Of Bad Credit Payday Loans in Shelby, NC
If you want fast cash in Shelby, it could not be less difficult than with USALoansDB.com. On average, you can borrow between $100 and $1,000 (though the exact amount depends upon your personal situation).
Money are automatically deposited by lenders as soon as on the next business day, which is perfect for those unexpected emergency circumstances.
Payday Loan Advantages
Unforeseen bills and other budgetary blips can leave you looking for fast money. But the truth is, you do not always want to borrow more than a thousand. Most people can get back on track when their next salary arrives. Thats where short-term loans come in.
Even though we cannot get your company to give you an advance on your wages, we can try to connect you with one of our direct payday lenders who can issue you a loan.
Just enter the amount you wish to borrow, submit your contact details, and our system will take you into a network of more than 100 direct lenders, all accredited and certified in Shelby, NC.
Keep in mind: Payday loans were created to support those people who have a regular income, and simply need to bridge the gap until payday. They are not effective for consolidating existing debts.
Payday loans are paid back in full just a few weeks after they are issued rather than installments. Thats why they are usually issued in small amounts.
Borrowing Made Easy With Us
It can be considered a hassle borrowing money, especially from the bank. However, at USALoansDB.com we make things as easy as possible with this fast loan requesting service. Anyone in Shelby, NC can begin immediately. If youre reading this, youre halfway there already!
BE AWARE: Your personal information is safe with us as we never share it with third parties and our associated lenders are reliable providers of payday loans.
With online loans, you dont have to wait in lines, speak to anyone at a storefront or bank, pick up the phone, or complete paper forms even.
Unless they need further verification, our payday loan companies will handle your application exclusively online, letting you attach digital statements and other documents to the online application without needing to fax a thing. All it requires is a computer and you could have a loan within a day during the working week!
We eliminate the hassle of having to apply with multiple lenders individually, by moving your details through a huge network of payday lenders and trying to match you with at least one of them. This also protects your credit file from recording multiple loan queries, which can have an adverse impact.
Warning: Loan companies promising no credit check are usually using deceptive marketing language. All lenders in our network reserve the right to execute a credit check.
The entire process can take just a couple of minutes. If we manage to match you with one of our lenders, there will be extra details to provide and you’ll know on-screen whether your application has been accepted.
You can even apply if you have a bad credit!
Bad Credit is Welcome
Having bad credit can be considered a stressful and frustrating experience. Past struggles seem to consistently haunt you when trying to apply for new loans, even when your present finances are good. Sadly, most banking institutions and large lenders refuse to even consider your loan request after a credit check.
Great News: Our lenders believe that everyone should get a second chance at borrowing, especially when they only require a small amount until their next paycheck. This means your application will not be instantly declined if you have a bad credit rating – all your information will be reasonably assessed before a decision is made. For example, your employment status and income are also critical indicators in whether you could be approved and how much lenders are willing to offer.
Note: USALoansDB.com is not a lender and will not perform any credit checks. However, if you connect with a lender through our system, they reserve the right to run some kind of check – even if it is not through the major credit agencies.
Rebuild Your Credit Rating With Shelby, NC Loan Companies
The good thing about online payday loans is that because they are small amounts as well as for short-term borrowing, you can quickly demonstrate your reliability and begin rebuilding your credit score.
Within 30 days you should have successfully borrowed and repaid your loan. Doing this just a couple of times is a strong sign to other lenders that you can meet your financial obligation and other loan and credit products will begin to become accessible to you.
Who Is Eligible?
The brief answer is nearly everyone. So long as you are over 18 years, a legal resident of Shelby, and also have a stable and verifiable income source, you meet the criteria to connect with lenders through our service and apply for a loan.

The existing heat index is well-defined for most combinations of high temperature and humidity experienced on Earth in the preindustrial climate, but global warming is increasingly generating conditions for which the heat index is undefined. Therefore, an extension of the original heat index is needed. To extend the heat index, we use the same physiological model as in the original work of Steadman to ensure backwards compatibility. Following Steadman, each value of the heat index is mapped onto an observable measure of physiological stress.
The correspondence between the heat index and the physiological state allows us to assess future habitability under different warming scenarios. Even for a very fit individual (approaching the optimal human assumed in the thermoregulation model), the rate at which a human can expel heat is still constrained by physical laws that govern, for example, heat conduction and the evaporation of water. In a sufficiently hot and humid environment, the human body runs out of tricks for regulating its core temperature, leading to sickness or death.

(blue and dark blue) Same, but adding 5 K and 10 K to the temperatures while keeping the relative humidities unchanged. The grey region with gradient shows the range of Heat Indices where region IV transitions to region V. (The transition occurs within a finite range of heat index from 308 K to 333 K, and therefore is represented by the grey color with gradient.)

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease for which no efficient therapy is available. The ADIPOA consortium has previously shown that intraarticular injections of stromal cells prevents OA in two different models, but the mechanisms of this chondroprotective effect remains unknown, and the activation of cartilage derived endogenous stem cells is suspected. The participants have experience on cell therapy, logistic and production facilities for adipose derived stromal cells (ASC) and clinical studies focusing on cartilage repair. They have shown that stromal cells have anti-inflammatory and antiapoptosis effets, prevent cells from senescence and protect endogenous cells from oxidative stress. ASC are well described, and the procedure to expand the ASC in GMP clinical grade by one of us has been approved by regulatory authorities. This has prompted us to propose an original and innovative regenerative medicine approach for OA in a four years programme organised around 6 workpackages : WP 1 ASC biology, cell processing & optimization for chondral protection WP 2 In vivo validation of chondroprotective effect of ASC WP 3 Safety, Security & regulatory issues WP 4 Clinical trial endogenous ASC injected intraarticular in OA WP 5 Management and Coordination WP 6 Training and Education ADIPOA project will then lead to the optimisation and standardisation of production procedures. In vivo validation and optimisation shall lead to a phase 1 clinical trial and the design and initiation of a phase 2 controlled study in OA. The ADIPOA Consortium comprises 10 academic and 2 sme participants and gathers researchers and clinicians with expertise in clinical research, chondrocytes and adipose stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. The Sme participation will ensure the dissemination of the project results. The critical mass achieved by the ADIPOA Consortium should enable clinical applications in OA.

Mobility, important for well-being, is seriously impaired by chronic low back pain and osteoarthritis in many people due to degeneration of cartilaginous tissue of the intervertebral disc and joint. To develop a treatment for these diseases this ETN aims to combine expertise in novel highly advanced drug delivery carriers with dedicated targeting tools, state of the art imaging techniques and expertise in stem cell and joint biology by training 15 young scientists in 12 partner institutes located in 5 different countries. We aim to achieve regeneration of damaged and degenerated tissues by employing targeting strategies tailored both to the pathology and the tissues involved. Regeneration of diseased tissues will be achieved by loading biologically active agents in state-of-the-art nanocarriers. The biologically active agents will stimulate the bodys own capacity to regenerate by attracting local stem cells or inhibit degeneration. Targeting will be achieved by A] injection with synthetic or natural hydrogels loaded with the nanocarriers or B] coupling diseased tissue-specific antibodies and specific hyaluronic acid moieties to the nanocarriers. Delivery and retention will be monitored by advanced in vivo and molecular imaging techniques to monitor distribution of the delivered compounds at the tissue level, as well as detect biological markers of regeneration. Major objectives: 1] To establish a network of scientists skilled in the use of smart nanocarriers, unique approach of targeting by disease-specific molecules and application of innovative imaging tools. Supported by generic scientific and training in economical and clinical valorisation, these researchers can further implement these technologies in the musculoskeletal or other areas, both in academia and industry. 2] To develop strategies exclusively targeting diseased tissues with controlled doses of bio-actives, circumventing the disadvantages of the current shotgun approaches in regenerative medicine.

The intervertebral discs form the elastic part of the spine. It is composed of the annulus fibrosus, a tough outer layer of fibrocartilage, surrounding an elastic gelatinous core, the nucleus pulposus (NP). With age, the water content of the NP decreases, thus, the mechanical loads concentrate on the annulus. This leads to the NP wear, and cracking with a subsequent inflammation reaction and a prolapsed intervertebral disc. The process forms a cycle of accelerated DDD pathology. The Gold Standard for treatment is the spinal fusion, an extensive surgery, which blocks definitively free spine motion. Surgeons seek new technologies to allow motion preservation, with long-term outcomes. Based on electrospinning proprietary technology of partner NIC and a novel chemically modified ECM-based biopolymer, developed by partner ProCore, the NPmimetic consortium will develop biomimetic nano-polymer based gel for minimally invasive treatment for disc regeneration: Electrospinning technology will be exploited to design and develop nano-fiber based, biocompatible, biodegradable, synthetic scaffold that will mimic mechanical properties of native NP for immediate and short term treatment. Anti-inflammatory drugs will be carried by biodegradable nano-fibers to be gradually released in situ thus, healing and preventing inflammation. Furthermore, the synthetic scaffold will be integrated with the bioactive-polymer that is highly potent in supporting NP cells for long-term cure. A multidisciplinary study will answer scientific and engineering questions raised by the NPmimetic approach, e.g. hydrogel swelling characteristics, drug delivery, and NP cells reaction to the biomimetic gel environment. All will be supervised by a strong leader in spine surgery to define inputs and outputs of the research, from a clinical implementation point of view.

Living Sauerkraut Original, Unpasteurized - 400g
***Foodcraft is on a greener mission and have now added a "No Cooler Bag Option" for those who want to join us in the efforts to help save our planet! Please click here if you do not want your products to be delivered in cooler bags.***
Sauerkraut is shredded fresh cabbage that has been fermented by various lactic acid bacteria, including Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, and Pediococcus. It has a natural sour flavour which results from the lactic acid that forms when the bacteria ferments the sugars in the cabbage (no added vinegar!).
Our original sauerkraut is made with only 2 ingredients and no added vinegar. It has a natural sour flavor which results from the lactic acid that forms when the bacteria ferments the sugars in the cabbage.
Happy Gut Happy Life!
- Unpasteurized which makes it rich in natural digestive enzymes and living probiotics - highly recommended for people who need to nourish their gut
- Rich in minerals including copper, manganese, magnesium, calcium, phosphorous, iron, zinc, molybdenum, and selenium
HOW WE MAKE IT
We make our sauerkraut traditionally in small batches by hand. First, we shred the fresh cabbage and massage it with Himalayan Crystal Salt, before allowing it to ferment in a jar for 3 days. After the first fermentation, we let it further ferment in low temperature until it's ready to be consumed.
Sauerkraut especially goes well as a condiment with food with high fat content such as meat or nuts. We recommend a slice of sourdough bread and a slab of almond butter topped with our Living Sauerkraut.

Be prepared for flooded roads
- Published: Wednesday, June 17, 2015
BLUE SPRINGS, Mo.– Flooding is a potential threat in many parts of Missouri. And even if your house is not in a flood plain, you may drive through one on your way home.
“Most flood-related deaths are caused by people trying to drive through moving water,” said Georgia Stuart-Simmons, a former University of Missouri Extension community development specialist. “Most cars will float—and be swept away—in 18-24 inches of moving water. Trucks and SUVs are not much better with only 6-12 more inches of clearance. Creeks and rivers can rise very rapidly, or the road bottom could wash away, making the water much deeper than it appears.”
Once cars are swept downstream, they will often roll to one side or even flip over entirely. The driver has only a few seconds to escape. “Many drivers panic as soon as the vehicle submerges and are found later with their seat belt still fastened,” she said. “Never, NEVER try to drive through moving water.”
If it has been raining hard for several hours, or if it has been steadily raining for several days, be alert to the possibility of a flood. Stay tuned to local radio or TV stations for flood information. A flood watch means a flood is possible in your area. A flood warning means flooding is already occurring or will occur soon in your area.
No matter what type of emergency you may face, it’s important to have a disaster supply kit. If flooding cuts you off from supply sources, you might need:
-First-aid kit and essential medications.
-Canned food and can opener.
-At least three gallons of water per person.
-Protective clothing, rainwear, and bedding or sleeping bags.
-Battery-powered radio, flashlight and extra batteries.
-Special items for infants, elderly or disabled family members.
-Written instructions for how to turn off electricity, gas and water if authorities advise you to do so. (Remember, you’ll need a professional to turn them back on.)
“You will also need to know where to go if told to evacuate,” Stuart-Simmons said. “Choose several places—a friend’s home in another town, a motel, or a shelter.”
If a flood watch is issued for your area, move valuables to higher floors. Keep a full tank of gas in your car in case an evacuation notice is issued.
When flooding is imminent, move to higher ground away from rivers, streams, creeks and storm drains. Do not drive around barricades. They are there for your safety.

Taipei might be renowned for its record-breaking skyscrapers, bustling night markets and delicious food, but the city is also perfectly located for tourists to explore less well known delights in and around Taiwan’s capital. If you take a trip to Taipei, you will discover incredible food, fantastic walks and hikes in the surrounding mountains and, of course, world-class temples.
If you take a direct flight to Taipei, you will fly into Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), about 25 miles from Taipei City.
Taipei City enjoys a subtropical climate and the most popular season to visit is during the autumn, from September to November, when temperatures are pleasantly warm and rainfall is at a minimum. Winter is also dry, but temperatures can drop to around 10°C. The summer, from June – August, is hot and humid, with rains from June to October. If you are looking for great deals on hotels and cheap flights to Taipei City, June, September and October are the best months to visit.
Despite its troubled past, Taipei is a city that beautifully represents Taiwanese culture: an intoxicating blend of Chinese values with a dash of Japanese, Southeast Asian and American influences. The city’s heritage is evident throughout the city: the architecture is a fusion of Japanese mansions, Taoist temples and gravity-defying contemporary structures that sit in harmony within the city’s skyline. Taipei 101 may have lost its position as the world’s tallest building, but it is worth a visit. Lovers of architecture can take in the details of this spectacular structure, while shoppers can enjoy the plentiful shops and restaurants. Whatever you enjoy doing, take a trip up to the observation decks where you will be rewarded with stunning views. Here, you can get your bearings and view the delights of Taipei from nearly 500 metres in the air, before going down and taking a closer look. A trip to the National Palace Museum is a must if you want to gain a better understanding of Taiwanese history and culture. Inside the beautiful building, you can see exquisite Chinese artefacts, brought to Taipei during the Sino-Japanese wars. Exhibitions rotate regularly as, due to the precious nature of the pieces, limited numbers of collections are exhibited at one time, to prevent wear.
Eating out in Taipei is so cheap, and so central to the city’s culture, that many studios and apartments don’t even have kitchens. As with many Asian cities, you will not be short of opportunities for a snack or a meal, no matter the time of day or night. Snack on delicious fried dumplings or cruller (akin to a doughnut) dipped in hot, frothy soya milk. Enjoy the must-have noodle soup, or indulge in bubble tea, Taipei’s take on afternoon tea: cold, white tea with tapioca balls and steamed shrimp balls (to dunk, of course). Traditional Taiwanese food includes gua bao - pork rolls served with pickled veg and sprinkled with coriander and peanut crumble, or chicken or squid cooked in a unique combination of Chinese spices, ginger and basil. You can find such dishes from street vendors, or dine in a restaurant where you can enjoy them at your leisure.
Taking in some nature may not be the first things that come to mind when considering visiting a city, but Taipei is full of surprises! Why not visit the Maokong Highlands, a haven for tea enthusiasts, with its spectacular tea shops and stalls set to a stunning backdrop? The Highlands are accessible via a cable car, which gives unrivalled views of tea plantations and the city. Take a trip at night and witness the magical sight of Taipei City lit up in all its glory. The Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall Park is many things to many people. Early in the morning, you can witness the tranquil sight of Taipei City’s residents and tourists practicing the ancient art of Tai Chi. During the day, it is filled with people seeking respite from the busy city – playing, walking and picnicking, or taking pictures. Come the evening, theatre and concert-goers flood to the park, which is home to Taipei’s National Concert Hall and National Theatre. Whatever time of day, it is worth taking a trip to this park just to see the magnificent Hall, which displays classic Chinese architecture and is considered one of Taipei City’s most famous monuments.
From Shilin Night Market, to high-end malls, you will find almost everything you can imagine in Taipei. Shilin Market is a heaving, bustling mass of people, lights, smells and sounds. Here you can try national dishes from the plethora of street stalls, search for bargains, or stock up on souvenirs. Be prepared to haggle and bear in mind that, as the market is popular with locals and tourist alike, it gets extremely busy. Of course, if you need a rest, you can always stop for a fortifying cup of tea and a massage on the way. Ximending is another good district to buy designer apparel and souvenirs. Ximending is popular with students and has a young, upbeat vibe. There are often street entertainers, so if you see people gathering in the streets, be sure to stop and take a look. With so much to see and do in and around Taipei City, your only problem will be choosing what to see and do before leaving this vibrant, charming metropolis to return home. If you are planning your dream holiday, Travangelo can help you to find cheap flights to Taipei City.

When Linnea [Rufo – the owner of and executive chef at the Bee & Thistle in Old Lyme] and I talked about what she would make for her boules party, she thought about Lasagna Bolognese. This can be made ahead of time and baked just before dinner time, usually around 7 pm. A big salad (we usually have somewhere around 45 people for dinner), maybe Charlie van Over’s bread. I would do a bar dessert while Linnea would get ice cream and fruit.
A couple of weeks later, we talked again. I said I would make the Bolognese sauce and the salad, too, if she would like. “No, I’m not doing lasagna. I’m going to do chicken in wine with capers.” The Bee & Thistle doesn’t even have a walk-in freezer and here she is choosing chicken with wine and capers, and she wanted to play boules, too. I thought she was nuts.
It turns out she wasn’t crazy. She had done most of the work ahead of time and the final roasting would take place in a big, big oven (it is a restaurant, after all) along with roasted zucchini. Everything was delicious and I, who can’t find a word for how boring zucchini is to me, loved this zucchini. Here are her recipes:
Chicken and Wine with Capers
From Linnea Rufo, executive chef of Bee & Thistle inn
Yield: serves 6
6 very large skinless boneless chicken breasts
Flour, salt and pepper to taste, for dredging
2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup of a nice white wine
1 large chopped shallot
2 cups low-salt chicken stock
One-half cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup capers, rinsed
One-half cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
3 large lemons, halved (optional)
Cut each chicken breast horizontally so each opens like a book.
Heat oil in a large high-sided skillet or a small roasting pan. Dredge the chicken in the flour, salt and pepper mixture, shaking excess and sear chicken until brown on each side. Do this in batches so you don’t cook them to the point where they will steam. If you are serving later, cool chicken and wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until just before dinner.
Before ready to serve, in the same skillet with all the browned pieces, heat and deglaze with shallots and wine. Add stock and lemon juice. Place chicken pieces in the broth and roast until chicken is done. Add capers and cook another few minutes. Place chicken and sauce in a platter and sauce with the juice. Sprinkle with parsley.
Optional: If garnishing, place half lemons on a grill until brown and serve each on top of each chicken.
Also from Linnea Rufo
Here is a zucchini that is truly memorable. And easy to make. So if a neighbor rang your doorbell and ran away and you open the door and see 10 pounds of zucchini, call him and thank him.
Extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Wash and dry the zucchini. Cut the bottoms and tops off, cut them into thin strips and place in a large bowl. Mince the chives and add to the zucchini. Top with olive oil and salt and pepper, to taste. With your hands (or with a big spoon), toss together. Leave them to macerate on the counter for a few minutes or in an hour or so. Set the oven at 350 degrees. But the mixture in a baking sheet and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, tossing once or twice during the roasting. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

From my inbox from Karrie Fransman... The House That Groaned is her graphic novel which references issues of bodily anxiety and image from a feminist perspective:
"I wanted to drop you a line as my my new graphic novel 'The House That Groaned' has just been released by Random House's Square Peg. It's off to a flying start with praise from film director Nicolas Roeg, a fantastic review from Paul Gravett and it was voted no.1 book by Foyles just the other week. You can have a play with the book at www.thehousethatgroaned.com and watch an animated trailer here": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tiha_y4nCBU.
Quotes: 'KARRIE FRANSMAN breaks all the rules of storytelling; accumulated over the past thousands of years. She creates a confusion at first, that suddenly bursts into the obvious and simplest fact; that all the stories of, and in our lives, are personal and private. Unlinked and unlike anyone else’s…..like our DNA. The only way this wonderful ‘Book’ could have been written is by illustration….not by word…..rather like the hidden stories drawn on the walls of caves.-Nicholas Roeg (director of Don't look Now and Walkabout)
'Oddly macabre and moving at the same time, more absurdist magic realism than gritty kitchen-sink drama, few British debut graphic novels have been as audacious and unsettling as this.' Paul Gravett (journalist, curator and The Man at the Crossroads)

Volume 16:1, January 2015
Eternities before the first-born day,
Or ere the first sun fledged his wings of flame,
Calm Night, the everlasting and the same,
A brooding mother over chaos lay.
And whirling suns shall blaze and then decay,
Shall run their fiery courses and then claim
The haven of the darkness whence they came;
Back to Nirvanic peace shall grope their way.
So when my feeble sun of life burns out,
And sounded is the hour for my long sleep,
I shall, full weary of the feverish light,
Welcome the darkness without fear or doubt,
And heavy-lidded, I shall softly creep
Into the quiet bosom of the Night.
James Weldon Johnson (June 17, 1871 - June 26, 1938) lived in DC while working for the NAACP. He later worked as US Consul to Venezuela (1906-1908) and US Consul to Nicaragua (1909-1913) and Chair of Creative Literature at Fisk University. He wrote novels, poems, song lyrics, and collections of folklore. Johnson's books of poems include: To a Friend (1892), Lift Every Voice and Sing (1899), O Black and Unknown Bards (1908), Fifty Years (1917), and God's Trombones (1927). He is also the author of the fictional The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man (1912), and edited The Book of American Negro Poetry (1922) and The Book of American Negro Spirituals (1925).

Alvita Passionflower tea organic Description
Traditionally Used to Help Ease Occasional Nervous Tension and Support Restful Sleep
First documented in 1569 by Spanish explorers in Peru, passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) is so named because of the blossom’s symbolic resemblance to elements in Christian theology. The herb’s primary traditional uses include easing occasional nervous tension and supporting restful sleep.
Alvita Passionflower Tea organic is made with premium-quality, organic passionflower, and has a pleasantly smoky aroma and flavor.
The Alvita Story…
In 1922, a new era for tea consumption began in America. The herb alfalfa, long known for its beneficial nutrients, was packaged in tea bags and sold to an emerging health food market. This product became known as Alvita and set the standard for future herbal teas. Today, Alvita represents more than forty single-ingredient teas, each one uniquely distinct, just like the individuals who drink them.
Alvita chooses only the highest quality organic, wild-crafted or cultivated botanicals, perfectly prepared to provide you with the best Mother Nature has to offer. Historical and scientific literature is painstakingly studied to ensure that the correct traditional plant and most appropriate servings are used, delivering premium flavor and quality.
Herbs are gifts from the earth. Alvita takes it stewardship seriously by offering carefully harvested tea in earth-friendly packaging. Our beautifully illustrated boxes are made using recycled paperboard and our English pillow style tea bags are oxygen bleached not chlorine treated. You won’t find a better product whit a cleaner package… anywhere.
Alvita… brewed with confidence, steeped in tradition.
Place one tea bag in a cup and add 8 oz of boiling water. Cover and steep for 10 minutes. Gently squeeze tea bag and remove.
We recommend 2 cups during the day and one cup 30 minutes before bedtime.

Sometimes we know when our Spirituality is in crisis by the hollow feeling in the pit of our stomach. It feels like we are alone, and as if everyone has abandoned us. Probably the worst thing we can do is ignore it. It seems when we do this the following things happen;
• We eat too much mistaking loneliness for hunger.
• We over medicate with alcohol or drugs to make the hollow feeling go away.
• We mistake horniness for loneliness, and feel ripped off when orgasm leads to more hollow feeling.
• We gamble on extremes …..to fill empty feelings of ‘Loss.’.
• We become thrill seekers, toying with self sabotage or death to replace fear of life.
• We impulse shop for perfect shoes and clothing, cars or trinkets, and come home depressed and drained.
WHEN OUR ANGELS ARE SPEAKING TO US, HOW DO WE KNOW? R.S.V.P!
R.S.V.P. means “please reply.” Will you accept or decline your angels’ invitation?
• Our Angels speak silently, but powerfully.
• Our Angels speak through our gut. The hollow feeling within says loud and clear ‘PAY ATTENTION TO ME.’
• Food, gamboling, sex, thrill seeking are like placing our hands over our ears and singing ‘LA LA LA…I CAN’T HEAR YOU.’
HOW DO WE PAY ATTENTION TO OUR ANGELS?
• Anything that gives you time to reflect…….ponder……go within, is communication with your inner Angel.
• It can be 20 minutes sitting cross legged as you rock back and forth thinking nothing at all. [You are emotionally reaching within.]
• A half hour of Yoga in the morning alone, focusing within through stretches.
• Staring out a window with a cup of coffee is even a form of meditation with angels.

We forget who is doing what, what is their status, we just felt this is another Bangladeshi and we love them.
In every occasion we felt we should go to Bangladesh. But then money, visa, job or other problems arises. But we love our country no matter where we live. That’s why, all Bangladeshi, no matter where they live, sang the National song together. Long live Bangladesh.

urinary tract, Double-J catheter, infection, bacteriuria
- Introduction and the aim of the study. Ureteral Double-J stenting is a method facilitating the upper urinary tract drainage. Long-term ureteric stenting is associated with bacterial colonization of both stent surface and urine. The aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation between the type of bacteria cultured from the different Double-J catheter sections, removed from urinary tract, and the microorganisms cultured from urine. Relationship of positive Double-J catheter cultures with duration of J stenting was also evaluated.
- Material and methods. 42 patients, who had Double-J stents inserted, were enrolled into the study. They had their urine cultured prior to the stent insertion and again prior to the stent removal. The stent itself was immediately sent for culture, separately for the pelvical, ureteral and vesical section and the cultures were performed according to the obligatory microbiological standards.
- Results. Urine cultures, obtained prior to the stent removal, were positive in 10 cases. In 32 cases the cultures were negative. Urine cultures were negative in all patients that had their stent kept for shorter than 30 days. There were 25% positive urine cultures in case of the stents maintained for the period longer than 30 days, but not longer than 90 days, and 45% in case of catheters kept for longer than 90 days. Of all 42 stents, only 1 was not colonized. In 41 cases the catheter cultures were positive, with different bacteria species detected.
- Conclusion. There was a relationship between the duration of Double-J stenting and urine culture. We found that maintenance of Double-J catheter in the urinary tract is associated with a high risk for bacterial colonization. We also observed that urine and respective Double-J stent sections were colonized by different bacteria species.

13-Step Dance Suite for violin and piano consists of four dances, each based on a distinct metrical pattern which adds to 13 beats. The harmonic and melodic material proceeds in a series of tetracords, gradually changing pools of four notes. Due to these limitations in rhythm and pitch, an air of directness, simplicity and sparseness pervades the set.

Home automation service provider Vivint Smart Home plans to open a sales and recruitment office at the North Gates of LSU in the former Massey’s Outfitters location on Highland Road by the end of this year.
The new office is part of an initiative to increase Vivint’s presence across the U.S., says Josh Crittenden, senior director of sales performance. Vivint chose 18 universities, including LSU, to locate new sales offices where the company will recruit college students for paid internships and train them to sell Vivint products nationwide.
“We recruit college students looking for summer jobs and maybe something that can evolve into a career,” Crittenden says. “We’ll take summer recruits from LSU, send them out to cities in New York or California and focus on training, selling and being part of the team.”
The Utah-based company signed a lease on Monday for the 6,000-square-foot space adjacent to Five Guys, which has been vacant since Massey’s closed in February after four-and-a-half years at the location.
“This is a long-term, strategic play,” says Matthew Shirley, an agent at Saurage Rotenberg Commercial Real Estate, which owns the property. “We’re confident Vivint can make it there.”
The location on Highland will display Vivint products in the front, but its main purpose is to provide an office space where employees and student recruits can meet and work.
Vivint bills itself as a leading home automation company with 1.3 million customers in the U.S. It offers home security, energy management, home automation, local cloud storage and high-speed Internet solutions. The company, founded in Provo, Utah, in 1999, has mostly focused on direct-to-home sales, although it’s also recently gotten into retail sales with products in Best Buy.
Vivint products and services are already available in Louisiana and Baton Rouge, where Crittenden says they have been well received, which was part of the reason why the company chose to expand to LSU.
“We’ve been successful selling there,” he says. “We’re starting to build name recognition, and the school was very open to meeting with us.”

Have you ever heard about inorganic pigment? If you have recently painted your house or automobile, then you will aware of this term. Paint is usually derived from the powdered industrial inorganic pigments. Each color has its own unique set of the attributes. When you research well, you will become familiar with the strengths, distinctive natures of your pigment.
Industrial inorganic pigments significantly change our surroundings. They are irreplaceable for the coloring of construction materials – their applications range from concrete to artist’s colors, from industrial paints to toners in photocopiers, from coloring in foodstuffs to raw materials for catalysts.
Industrial inorganic pigments have been utilized by mankind since ancient times, and are still widely used to colour materials exposed to elevated temperatures during processing or application.

CHILE: Peso pushes Chile's wineries to breaking point
- Small wineries face ruin - Rabobank
- Predicts industry consolidation
- Wines of Chile says situation not dire
Currency damages Chilean wine exports, but demand still rising
Many small Chilean wineries are struggling to survive the country's strong peso currency, which has damaged the value of exports, according to Rabobank.
Chileans may have brushed aside the established world wine order in the last few years, but the country's strong peso currency is threatening to undo some of the good work. Almost a year after Chile's wine sector lost US$430m in stock and infrastructure to an earthquake, smaller wineries are reportedly under threat from financial tremors.
"There is increasing speculation that a number of smaller Chilean wineries may be forced to exit the market if the exchange rate does not improve in the near term," said investment bank Rabobank in its quarterly wine review, published last week. It said that many of Chile's small wineries are reported to be seeking joint ventures and partnerships "in order to survive".
The Chilean peso strengthened by around 10% against the US$ and GBP sterling in the first nine months of 2010, according to Rabobank. This has given rivals, such as neighbouring Argentina, the opportunity to steal a march on Chile in key export markets, particularly the US.
Wines of Chile president René Merino confirmed to just-drinks yesterday (25 January) that many small wineries "are in financial stress". However, while he "does not rule out the possibility of some going down", he said that many wineries have become accustomed to dealing with volatile currencies.
"Many of them have somehow adjusted via price increases," he said. "Don't forget that a majority of the small wineries in Chile have owners who don't 'live' out of the wine business, but have other core activities," Merino added.
Michael Cox, head of Wines of Chile for the UK and who has spent the last two weeks touring Chilean vineyards, said that many producers are "taking a pragmatic, long-term view". He said that the 2010 harvest is turning out to be "exceptionally good quality and 2011 looks similar".
Consumer demand for Chilean wine, at least, has remained strong.
Rabobank figures show that Chile's wine exports for the first ten months of 2010 rose by 10% volume and 12% in value, albeit in local currency. Earlier this month, meanwhile, industry leader Vina Concha y Toro reported a 6% rise in net sales for 2010. Volumes climbed by 4%, although the company has yet to release profit details.

Admissions Staff Bio:
Which season is your favorite? Why?
The fall is my absolute favorite. Crisp weather, bonfires, comfy sweaters, no bugs. Something about the fall fills me with nostalgia, and makes me want to take long drives on gravel roads listening to old-time country music.
If you could have a room full of any one thing, what would it be?
I should probably say something like money, but the first thing to come to my mind (and make me grin from ear to ear) is the idea of a room full of chihuahuas. I have one little guy named Rusty, and he is the apple of my eye. Multiply him by 100 and put me in a room and I’ll be the happiest girl on earth!
What is your favorite sandwich?
Fresh sun-ripened tomato slices with mayo, salt and pepper on lightly toasted bread. There’s nothing better!
If money were not an object, what would you do with your life?
Travel, travel, travel! And adopt a room full of chihuahuas!
What would you rather read: fiction or non-fiction? Why?
I’d choose fiction, though I love to read both. I write fiction, so I particularly enjoy reading a fictional piece from a writer’s perspective, breaking down the conventions and reacting in awe at the mastery of a killer sentence or a captivating plot.

The Pan-Tilt HAT from Pimoroni lets you mount and control a pan-tilt module right on top of your Raspberry Pi. The HAT and its on-board microcontroller let you independently drive the two servos (pan and tilt), as well as driving up to 24 regular LED (with PWM control) or NeoPixel RGB (or RGBW) LEDs. There’s also a handy slot through which you can route the servo, LED, and camera cables. The module pans and tilts through 180 degrees in each axis.
Use Pan-Tilt HAT with a Pi camera for face-tracking, or mount it on top of your roving robot as a set of eyes. Ideal for a mini CCTV system, it will allow you to control the movement of your Pi camera with minimal fuss. Or why not just stick a foam sword on top and make it swashbuckle?!
There’s absolutely no soldering required (unless you decide to use a NeoPixel strip or ring with it), as the servos on the pan-tilt module have female jumper wires attached and they’ve soldered a strip of right-angled header pins to the underside of the HAT to connect them up.
They’ve also included a handy little acrylic camera mount to hold your camera snugly in the head of the pan-tilt module. The mount has a couple of mounting holes at the top to hold a NeoPixel stick and there’s a neat little frosted diffuser to make the light super-dreamy. You can use one of our RGBW NeoPixel sticks for a lovely pure white glow (or any other color!)

From the WWE Rumor Mill: Stipulation to be added to the title match between Jinder Mahal and AJ Styles
What’s the story?
With WWE announcing a WWE Title match between Jinder Mahal and AJ Styles for next week's Smackdown Live, it seems like that the two men might get a certain stipulation for their title match in Manchester this coming Tuesday.
In case you didn’t know…
Earlier this week, Smackdown Live commissioner Shane McMahon confirmed that AJ Styles will go toe-to-toe with “The Modern Day Maharaja” next week on Smackdown Live. According to Shane, the match was booked due to Mahal and The Singh Brothers brutally attacking AJ Styles this week on Smackdown.
Styles has recently gotten into a feud with Mahal as “The Phenomenal One” claims that the current WWE World Champion has never defeated him in singles action before and stated that he is coming for the WWE Title.
The former WWE Champion got his wish earlier this week, as Shane O’Mac confirmed that Mahal will indeed defend the title against Styles next week.
The heart of the matter
With a title match booked for next week between AJ and Jinder, it apparently seems like there could be a possible stipulation added to the mix. The Manchester Arena is now currently advertising the title match for next week as a street fight.
But, however, as of right now, WWE is yet to officially announce a stipulation for the contest but if they do then chances are that Jinder’s allies, the Singh Brothers, will eventually get involved in the match and might even cost Styles the championship.
Both Mahal and Styles will now look to focus on their mega title match next week on Smackdown Live, in the UK.
But for “The Modern Day Maharaja” he also has to keep an eye out for “The Beast” Brock Lesnar, whom Mahal will face at this year’s Survivor Series if he manages to retain the belt against AJ this Tuesday.
However, Jinder remains pretty confident of the fact that he is going to beat both Styles and Lesnar this month, and is looking forward to cementing his legacy as the WWE Champion.
I would like to see a stipulation being involved in this title bout because a stipulation always makes a match a lot more fun to watch.
But, if the two men square off in a street fight then chances are that Styles may not be able to dethrone Mahal and “The Maharaja” might walk out of Manchester still as the reigning champion.
