Global Pet Food Market Definition
Pet Foods are commercially prepared foods for pets consisting of raw or refrigerated foods, including fresh vegetables, fruit components. supplements and meats as well as bones. Although the shelf life of fresh pet foods is lesser than that of processed pet foods, they are a greater source of nutrients and easy to digest and thus limits the backyard cleaning activity to minimal.
Currently, pet owners prefer pet foods that encompass high-quality ingredients with substantial health benefits. Human-grade pet foods with high-quality ingredients are generally considered fresh. Human-grade pet foods enable better digestion, owing to elimination of additives and help to build a strong immunity in pets. The growing scale of humanization of pets is likely to fuel the adoption of human-grade pet foods among pet owners. Furthermore, numerous vendors in the market are focusing on offering human-grade fresh pet foods. For instance, JustFoodForDogs offers fresh, human-grade pet foods. The fresh pet foods offered by the company comprise USDA-certified (for human consumption) ingredients. Thus, the forecast period is expected to witness Pet food growth with the increasing adoption of human-grade pet foods.

Global Pet Food Market Overview
Growing dog food demand along with a higher proportion in the premium pet food segment is projected to drive the pet food market over the forecast period. Dry food, in particular, is witnessing rapid demand growth as compared to other product counterparts owing to its convenience in terms of storage and feeding pets eliminating the chaos of liquid food articles. This is expected to positively influence urban consumers to opt for dry pet food.
Canned food is more palatable to dogs and cats as this product type is rich in proteins, fats, and contains fewer carbohydrates. Wet/canned pet food is not only easy to digest but also limits the backyard cleaning activity to minimal. Higher digestibility offered by wet food makes it preferable for cats and dogs with illnesses and those that are finicky eaters.
The rising trend of dog adoption as a companion for families is projected to propel the product demand. Particularly dogs are witnessing an upward trend in terms of the concept of humanization of pets as compared to other animals. This has resulted in a significant number of people adopting dogs and feeding them with premium food. Rural areas usually take calves as pets and feed them the traditional Chara,hence rapid urbanization is among the key factors driving the market for sophisticated pet food articles.

Germany, Europe's biggest economy, clocked up a small surplus in its public finances in 2013, as growth picked up at the end of the year, official data shows.
"According to Destatis's latest calculations, the federal state's financing surplus amounted to 0.3 billion euros ($0.4 billion) in 2013," the federal statistics office Destatis said on Tuesday in a statement.
"It is the second year in a row that a small financing surplus has been achieved."
At the same time, Destatis confirmed that gross domestic product GDP grew by 0.4 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2013, fractionally faster than growth of 0.3 per cent in the preceding quarter.
EU countries are obliged, under membership rules, to limit their public deficits to no more than 3.0 per cent of GDP and to achieve balanced budgets or even surpluses in the longer term.
Germany, which has weathered the financial and economic crisis much better than most of its EU neighbours, already managed to run up a small surplus equivalent to 0.1 per cent of GDP in 2012.
Measured against total output of 2.738 trillion euros in 2013, last year's ratio was more or less zero, Destatis said.
The financing surplus is the difference between the state's revenues and spending, which amounted to 1.2334 trillion euros and 1.2331 trillion euros respectively in 2013, the statement added.
Turning to the fourth-quarter growth data, Destatis confirmed its preliminary estimate released earlier this month that "Germany continued along its path of moderate growth at the year-end."
As previously calculated, GDP expanded by 0.4 per cent in the period from October to December compared with 0.3 per cent in the preceding three months.
Growth was driven primarily by foreign trade, with exports rising by 2.6 per cent in the three-month period, while imports were up just 0.6 per cent, the statisticians calculated.

Twins in fashion you need to know
The #squad and #squadgoals hashtags are just some of social media's favourite hashtags at the moment. But instead of power couples and BFFs, who better to include in your fashion pack than your own twin? From designers to models, here's a round up of a few powerful siblings in fashion—including two sets of our local 'It' girls. Twinning styles or not, as cheesy as it sounds, two is really better than one.
1. Lara and Mara Bawar
Not your average models, these 11-year-old twins from São Paulo, Brazil recently made waves after appearing in Swiss photographer Vinicius Terranova's personal project, titled "Flores Raras" (which translates to rare flowers), and thanks to their unique features, they managed to create quite a buzz. Born with albinism-a genetic condition that causes the partial or complete absence of pigment in the skin, hair and eyes, the Bawar sisters broke beauty stereotypes by embracing their stunning looks. Recently, the twins went on to work with brands such as Nike and Insanis, and aim to take on the fashion world one step at a time. With 98k followers to date, the twins are slowly but surely making their mark in the world of modelling.
2. Ruth and May Bell
Did you know that the twins had totally different ambitions growing up? Ruth—in pixie hair wanted to be a pilot, while May aimed to be a paramedic. All that changed after they got approached by an agent while on a holiday, entered the Elite Model London competition and subsequently signed to the agency. They worked with i-D magazine and Topshop at the start of their careers, but it wasn't until Ruth decided to shave her head that gave her the career-defining crop; there's something about the same-but-different vibe that is ultra-intriguing. Appearing in campaigns on the runway with big fashion houses such as Burberry and Dior, Ruth and May Bell are definitely one of the 'It' twins of the moment.
3. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen
From playing Michelle on Full House to building their own entertainment empire, many of us have been a fan of the Olsen twins since day one. Although they dabbled in fashion with clothing lines in Walmart and J.C. Penney in their teenage years, it wasn't until they were 20 years old before they launched their own label, The Row, and Elizabeth & James (named after their younger siblings, Elizabeth and James Olsen) the following year. The duo has carved out a niche in the fashion world—both with their signature boho-chic style and the success of their brands. Even though they're shying away from the limelight in recent years, Mary-Kate and Ashley make an exception for the Met Gala, gracing the event with notice-me-now looks every year.
4. Cherrie and Evangeline Liong
Cherrie and Evangeline, also known as Duo Gigs are making their presence known in the fashion industry locally by working with brands such as Gucci and Coach, and although both of their styles are distinctly different—Evangeline usually dressed in monochrome pieces in her raven bob while Cherrie opts to go down a more street-casual route in her signature blonde hair—their impeccable fashion tastes are apparent. This can be seen from their eye-catching appearances at fashion weeks abroad, namely Seoul Fashion Week and recently, the men's SS'18 fashion week in Paris, getting photographed by street-style photographers on the Parisian sidewalks.
5. Rachel and Michelle Yeoh
The Malaysian twins—who are based in London—have been making waves since their debut at the 235th Queen Charlotte's Debutante Ball (being the first set of twins at the event in history, no less). Anything but just a pretty face, besides pursuing their tertiary education in philosophy, politics and law respectively, they are also regulars in the fashion industry. From being on the advisory committee in the British Fashion Council (BFC) to walking the Dolce & Gabbana runway at its Autumn/Winter 2017 show in Milan (alongside offsprings of A-listers such as Corinne Foxx, Rafferty Law and Sofia Richie), one thing's for sure: Rachel and Michelle are establishing themselves globally, and we can't wait to see what lies ahead for these sisters next.

Palmers Green leasehold conveyancing: Q and A’s
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Palmers Green. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Palmers Green - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title.For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I am hoping to sign contracts shortly on a leasehold property in Palmers Green. Conveyancing solicitors assured me that they report fully next week. Are there areas in the report that I should be focusing on?
The report on title for your leasehold conveyancing in Palmers Green should include some of the following:
- You should receive a copy of the lease
My wife and I purchased a leasehold house in Palmers Green. Conveyancing and Virgin Money mortgage went though with no issue. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the freehold. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1995. The conveyancing solicitor in Palmers Green who acted for me is not around.Any advice?
The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that this person is indeed the new freeholder. There is no need to incur the fees of a Palmers Green conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for a few pound. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
Can you offer any advice when it comes to finding a Palmers Green conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
When appointing a property lawyer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Palmers Green conveyancing practice) it is imperative that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We recommend that you speak with several firms including non Palmers Green conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. Some following of questions could be useful:
- Can they put you in touch with client in Palmers Green who can give a testimonial?
I inherited a basement flat in Palmers Green. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the amount due for a lease extension?
Where there is a missing freeholder or where there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to calculate the amount due.
An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Palmers Green premises is First Floor Flat 109 Lyndhurst Road in May 2010. Following a vesting order by Edmonton County Court on 29th October 2009 the Tribunal decided on a figure of £5,012 for a lease extension. This case related to 1 flat. The the number of years remaining on the existing lease(s) was 81.79 years.
What makes a Palmers Green lease problematic?
There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Palmers Green. All leases are unique and legal mistakes in the legal wording can result in certain provisions are wrong. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:
- A provision to repair to or maintain elements of the premises
- A duty to insure the building
- A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party.
- Service charge per centages that don't add up correctly leaving a shortfall
A defective lease can cause issues when trying to sell a property primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. National Westminster Bank, Leeds Building Society, and Bank of Ireland all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to grant the mortgage, forcing the purchaser to withdraw.

Topography complicates the modeling and retrieval of land surface albedo due to shadow effects and the redistribution of incident radiation. Neglecting topographic effects may lead to a significant bias when estimating land surface albedo over a single slope. However, for rugged terrain, a comprehensive and systematic investigation of topographic effects on land surface albedo is currently ongoing. Accurately estimating topographic effects on land surface albedo over a rugged terrain presents a challenge in remote sensing modeling and applications. In this paper, we focused on the development of a simplified estimation method for snow-free albedo over a rugged terrain at a 1-km scale based on a 30-m fine-scale digital elevation model (DEM). The proposed method was compared with the radiosity approach based on simulated and real DEMs. The results of the comparison showed that the proposed method provided adequate computational efficiency and satisfactory accuracy simultaneously. Then, the topographic effects on snow-free albedo were quantitatively investigated and interpreted by considering the mean slope, subpixel aspect distribution, solar zenith angle, and solar azimuth angle. The results showed that the more rugged the terrain and the larger the solar illumination angle, the more intense the topographic effects were on black-sky albedo (BSA). The maximum absolute deviation (MAD) and the maximum relative deviation (MRD) of the BSA over a rugged terrain reached 0.28 and 85%, respectively, when the SZA was 60° for different terrains. Topographic effects varied with the mean slope, subpixel aspect distribution, SZA and SAA, which should not be neglected when modeling albedo.

More Seniors Seeking Addiction Treatment
The number of seniors in the United States seeking treatment for drug or alcohol treatment is skyrocketing, and it is only projected to get worse.
According to a report from theAssociated Press, between 1992 and 2008 treatment admissions for people 50 and older more than doubled. Here are the raw numbers — 231,200 people sought treatment in 2008, up from 102,700 in 1992, according to the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
This is happening while the number of younger people seeking treatment has gone down.
Much of this is attributed to baby boomers. Experts say boomers have a higher rate of substance abuse than other generations — abuse that may have started decades ago and is only coming to a head now.
And as baby boomers age, the numbers will go up even more.
“The baby boom population has some experience with substance misuse and is more comfortable with these substances,” said Dr. Westley Clark, director of SAMHSA’s center on substance abuse treatment.
Illicit drug use is rising among seniors. Back in 1992 nearly 85% of those seeking treatment did so for alcohol. Today that number is down to 60%. Booze has been replaced by heroin (16%, double since 1992) and cocaine (11.4%, four times the 1992 rate)
Health officials say many of today’s treatment facilities do not have programs to deal specifically with seniors. That will have to change.
So too will the perception that kindly old grandpa cannot also be addicted to drugs or alcohol.
“There is a level of societal denial around the issue,” said Peter Provet, the head of Odyssey House in New York. “No one wants to look at their grandparent, no one wants to think about their grandparent or their elderly parent, and see that person as an addict.”

Let us discuss some Healthy Basic Diets For Constipation.
Approximately 14% of people encounter chronic constipation in society. Signs involve passing stools fewer than three times per week, lumpy or hard stools, a feeling of incomplete evacuation, or inability to pass a stool.
The nature and hardness of symptoms can vary from individuals. Some people encounter constipation only infrequently, while for others, it may be a chronic condition.
Constipation has a class of causes but is frequently the result of a slow food movement through the digestive system.
However, this may be due to dehydration, illness, poor diet, medications, diseases attacking the nervous system, or mental disorders.
Luckily, several foods can help ease constipation by combining bulk, softening the stool, increasing stool frequency, and reducing gut transit time.
Below are 17 foods Healthy Basic Diets For Constipation.
Kefir is a fermented milk beverage that originated in the Caucasus mountains in West Asia. The word kefir is obtained from a Turkish word meaning “pleasant taste.”
It is a probiotic, which means it contains bacteria and yeasts that help your health when ingested. Kefir holds various species of microorganisms, depending on the source.
One four-week study had participants drink 17 ounces (500 ml) of kefir per day after their morning and evening meals. Participants used fewer laxatives at the end of the study and experienced improvements in stool frequency and consistency.
Moreover, a study in rats fed kefir showed increased moisture and bulk in the stool, which would make it easier to pass.
Kefir can be enjoyed plain or added to smoothies and salad dressings. It can also be mixed in with cereals and topped with fruits, flaxseeds, chia seeds, or oat bran to add some fibre.
Apples are highly rich in fibre. One medium-sized apple with the skin on (about 182 grams) holds 4.4 grams of fibre, 17% of the suggested daily intake.
Roughly 2.8 grams of that fibre is insoluble, while 1.2 grams is soluble fibre, frequently in the form of the dietary fibre called pectin.
In the gut, pectin is immediately fermented by bacteria to form short-chain fatty acids, which pull water into the colon, softening the stool and reducing gut transit time.
One research in 80 people with constipation discovered that pectin could stimulate the movement of the stool through the intestines, increase symptoms of constipation, and improve the number of helpful bacteria in the gut.
Another study found that rats fed a diet of apple fibre had improved stool number and weight, notwithstanding being given morphine, which causes constipation.
Apples are an easy way to promote the fibre content of your diet and ease constipation. You can eat them whole, juiced, or in salads or baked goods. Granny Smith apples have a particularly high fibre content.
The daily intake of kiwifruit is about 2.3 grams of fibre (about 76 grams), which is 9% recommended.
In one study, 38 people over age 60 were given one kiwifruit per 66 pounds (30 kg) of body weight per day. This resulted in an increased number and ease of defecation. It also modified and improved the bulk of stools.
Another study in people with constipation found that eating two kiwifruits every day for four weeks resulted in more spontaneous bowel movements, decreased laxative use, and overall enhanced satisfaction with bowel habits.
Moreover, a third study gave 54 people with irritable bowel syndrome two kiwifruits per day for four weeks. Participants reported an increased frequency of bowel movements and faster colonic transit times.
It’s not just the fibre in kiwifruit that’s held to fight constipation; rather, an enzyme known as actinidain is also hypothesized to be responsible for kiwifruit’s real effects on gut motility and bowel habits.
Kiwifruits can be eaten raw. Cut them in half and scoop out the green flesh and seeds. They create an excellent supplement to fruit salads and can be combined with smoothies for a fibre boost.
Pears are another fruit highly rich in fibre, with about 5.5 grams of fibre in a medium-sized fruit (about 178 grams). That is 22% of the suggested daily fibre intake.
Besides the fibre benefits, pears are high in fructose and sorbitol compared to other fruits.
Fructose is a type of sugar that is poorly digested in some people. This indicates that some of it ends up in the colon, which draws in water by osmosis, arousing a bowel movement.
Pears also hold the sugar alcohol sorbitol. Like fructose, sorbitol is not completely absorbed in the body and acts as a natural laxative by bringing water into the intestines.
Figs are an excellent way to increase your fibre consumption and promote healthy bowel habits.
One medium-sized raw fig (about 50 grams) holds 1.6 grams of fibre. Moreover, just half a cup (75 grams) of dried figs contains 7.3 grams of fibre, which is almost 30% of your daily essentials.
A study in dogs investigated the results of fig paste on constipation over a three-week period. It found that fig paste increased stool weight and decreased intestinal transit time.
Another study in 40 people with constipation discovered that taking 10.6 ounces (300 grams) of fig paste per day for 16 weeks helped promote up colonic transit, improved stool regularity, and eased stomach discomfort.
In addition, figs comprise an enzyme called ficain, which is related to the enzyme actinidain discovered in kiwifruit. It is thought this may contribute to its positive effects on bowel function, alongside its high fibre content.
Figs are a good snack on their own and also match well with both sweet and savoury dishes. They can be consumed raw, cooked, in baked goods, dried and go well with cheese and gamey meats, and on pizza and salads.
Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and mandarins are a refreshing snack and a good source of fibre.
For instance, one orange (about 131 grams) contains 3.1 grams of fibre, which is 13% of the prescribed daily fibre intake. On the other hand, one grapefruit (about 236 grams) contains 2.6 grams of fibre, meeting 10% of your daily needs.
Citrus fruits are too rich in the soluble fibre pectin, particularly in the peel. Pectin can stimulate colonic transit time and decrease constipation.
In addition, citrus fruits hold a flavanol called naringenin, which may add to the positive effects of citrus fruits on constipation.
Animal studies have shown that naringenin improves fluid flow into the colon, causing a laxative effect. Nevertheless, more research on humans is needed.
It’s best to eat citrus fruits fresh to make sure you get the best amount of fibre and vitamin C.
7.Jerusalem Artichoke and Chicory
Jerusalem artichoke and chicory belong to the sunflower family and are great sources of soluble fibre known as inulin.
Inulin is prebiotic, which indicates it helps stimulate the growth of bacteria in the gut, promoting digestive health. It’s particularly beneficial for Bifidobacteria.
A study on inulin and constipation observed that inulin improves stool frequency, increases consistency, and reduces gut transit time. It also has a mild bulking effect by improving the bacterial mass in the stool.
Jerusalem artichokes are tubers that have a nutty flavour. You can obtain them in most supermarkets, sometimes under the name sunchokes. It can also roasted, steamed, boiled, or mashed.
Chicory root is not usually seen in supermarkets but has become a common coffee alternative in its ground form.
Greens such as spinach, brussels sprouts, and broccoli are rich in fibre and excellent sources of vitamin C, vitamin K, and folate.
These greens add bulk and weight to stools, making them more natural to pass through the gut.
One cup of cooked spinach contains 4.3 grams of fibre or 17% of your prescribed daily intake. To get spinach into your diet, try combining it with a quiche, pie, or soup. Baby spinach or tender greens can be combined raw to salads or sandwiches for a fibre boost.
Brussels sprouts are super healthy, and some people find them tasty. Five sprouts contain 10% of your daily fibre needs for only 36 calories. They can be steamed, boiled, grilled, or roasted.
Broccoli holds 3.6 grams of fibre in just one stalk (about 150 grams). This is equal to 16% of your prescribed daily fibre intake. It can be cooked and added into soups and stews and eaten raw in salads or snacks.
Scientific research shows that artichokes have a prebiotic effect, promoting good gut health and regularity.
Prebiotics are indigestible carbohydrates like inulin that feed the beneficial bacteria in the gut, increasing their numbers and protecting against the growth of harmful bacteria.
One study found that people who ate 10 grams of fibre extracted from artichokes every day for three weeks had greater beneficial Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli bacteria. It also found that levels of harmful bacteria in the gut decreased.
Additionally, prebiotics has been found to increase stool frequency and improve stool consistency in people with constipation.
Cooked artichokes can be eaten hot or cold. The outer petals can be pulled off, and the pulpy part ate with a sauce or dip. The heart of the artichoke can be scooped out and cut into pieces.
Sweet potatoes contain a good amount of fibre to help alleviate constipation.
One medium-sized sweet potato (about 114 grams) contains 3.8 grams of fibre, 15% of the recommended daily intake.
Sweet potatoes contain mostly insoluble fibre in the form of cellulose and lignin. They also contain the soluble fibre pectin.
Insoluble fibre can aid bowel movements by adding bulk and weight to stools.
One study looked at the effects of eating sweet potatoes on people undergoing chemotherapy.
After just four days of eating 200 grams of sweet potato per day, participants experienced improved symptoms of constipation and reported less straining and discomfort than the control group.
Sweet potato can be roasted, steamed, boiled, or mashed. It can be used in any recipe that calls for regular potatoes.
Rhubarb is a leafy plant that is well known for its bowel-stimulating properties.
It contains a compound known as sennoside A, more commonly known as Senna, a popular herbal laxative.
A study in rats found that sennoside A from rhubarb works by decreasing aquaporin 3, a protein that regulates water movement in the intestines.
A lower level of aquaporin 3 means less water is moved from the colon back into the bloodstream, leaving stools softer and promoting bowel movements.
Furthermore, 1 cup (122 grams) of rhubarb contains 2.2 grams of dietary fibre, which provides 9% of your recommended daily fibre intake.
The leaves of the rhubarb plant cannot be eaten, but the stalks can be sliced and boiled. Rhubarb has a tart flavour and is often sweetened and added to pies, tarts, and crumbles. It can also be added to oats or muesli for a fibre-rich breakfast.
12.Beans, Peas, and Lentils
Beans, peas, and lentils are also known as pulses, one of the cheapest, fibre-packed food groups you can include in your diet.
For example, 1 cup (182 grams) of cooked navy beans, the type used for baked beans, contains a whopping 19.1 grams of fibre, almost 80% of the recommended daily intake.
Furthermore, in just one-half cup (99 grams) of cooked lentils, there are 7.8 grams of fibre, meeting 31% of your daily needs.
Pulses contain a mix of both insoluble and soluble fibre. This means they can alleviate constipation by adding bulk and weight to stools and softening them to facilitate passage.
To include more pulses in your diet, try adding them to soups, blending them to make healthy dips, including them in salads, or adding them into ground-meat dishes for extra bulk and taste.
Chia seeds are one of the most fibre-dense foods available. Just 1 ounce (28 grams) of chia seeds contains 10.6 grams of fibre, meeting 42% of your daily needs.
The fibre in chia is made up of 85% insoluble fibre and 15% soluble.
When chia comes into contact with water, it forms a gel. In the gut, this can help soften stools and make them easier to pass.
What’s more, chia can absorb up to 12 times its own weight in water, which can help add bulk and weight to stools.
Chia is very versatile and can be added to many different foods, considerably boosting fibre content without much effort.
They work perfectly sprinkled onto cereal, oats, or yogurt. You can also add them into a smoothie or veggie juice or mix them into dips, salad dressings, baked goods, or desserts.
Flaxseeds have been used for centuries as a traditional remedy for constipation, thanks to their natural laxative effects.
In addition to numerous other health benefits, flaxseeds are rich in soluble and insoluble dietary fibre, making them an ideal digestive aid.
Just 1 tablespoon (10 grams) of whole flaxseeds contains 2.8 grams of fibre, meeting 11% of your daily need.
One study in mice found that those fed a flaxseed-supplemented diet had shortened short intestinal transit time and increased stool frequency and stool weight.
The researchers suggested that insoluble fibre acts like a sponge in the large intestine, retaining water, increasing bulk, and softening the stool. Meanwhile, the soluble fibre promotes bacterial growth, adding mass to the stool.
Additionally, short-chain fatty acids are produced during the bacterial fermentation of soluble fibre, increasing motility and stimulating bowel movements.
You can eat flaxseed on cereal or yogurt and use it in muffins, bread, and cakes.
However, not everyone should use flaxseed. Pregnant and lactating women are often advised to avoid it because it may stimulate menstruation.
15.Whole-Grain Rye Bread
Rye bread is a traditional bread in many parts of Europe and rich in dietary fibre.
Two slices (about 62 grams) of whole-grain rye bread contain four grams of dietary fibre, meeting 15% of your daily requirements. Some brands contain even more than this.
Research has found rye bread to be more effective at relieving constipation than regular wheat bread or laxatives.
One study in 51 adults with constipation investigated the effects of eating 8.5 ounces (240 grams) of rye bread per day.
Participants who ate rye bread showed a 23% decrease in intestinal transit times, on average, compared to those who ate wheat bread. They also experienced softened stools and increased frequency and ease of bowel movements.
Rye bread can be used in place of regular white wheat bread. It’s usually denser and darker than regular bread and has a stronger flavour.
Oat bran is the fibre-rich outer casing of the oat grain.
It has significantly more fibre than the commonly used quick oats. In one-third cup (31 grams) of oat bran, there are 4.8 grams of fibre, compared to 2.7 grams in quick oats.
Two studies have shown the positive effects of oat bran on bowel function.
First, a study from the UK showed that eating two oat-bran biscuits per day significantly improved the frequency and consistency of bowel movements and reduced pain in participants aged 60–80.
A different study in nursing home residents in Austria found that adding 7–8 grams of oat bran to the diet per day resulted in a significant reduction in laxative use.
Oat bran can easily be combined with granola mixes and baked into bread or muffins.
Prunes, also known as dried plums, are generally used as a natural treatment for constipation.
They hold high measures of fibre, with 2 grams of fibre per 1-ounce (28-gram) meal. This is 8% of the American Heart Association’s advised daily intake of fibre.
Cellulose, an insoluble fibre in prunes, increases the quantity of water in the stool, which supplements bulk. The soluble fibre in prunes is fermented in the colon to produce short-chain fatty acids, increasing stool weight.
More so, prunes contain sorbitol. This sugar alcohol is not absorbed well by the body, making water be pulled into the colon and leading to a laxative result in a small number of people.
Finally, prunes also comprise phenolic compounds that stimulate helpful gut bacteria. One research in 40 people with constipation discovered that consuming 100 grams of prunes per day increased stool regularity matched to treatment with psyllium, a type of dietary fibre.
You can enjoy prunes on their own or in salads, baked goods, smoothies, oatmeal, savoury stews, and cereals.

my quickly new base SSS shader tests
Very nice, Slide3D! I know it’s your Francesca character (she’s cute!), but please share which lights/lighting you used in DAZ 4.6? I think it’‘s the most realistic character render I’ve seen yet with AoA’s new shader. And do you have a render time noted?
2 distand light for rim(50%) and fill(20%) with raytreced shadows(Shadow Softness 30% for rim and 5% for fill light) plus UE2 in Bounce Light(GI) mode
render time ~20min (i7 2600K)
I’m not sure I fully understand this, and I want to. Lighting in 3Delight is the bane of my existence. Lighting in Lux and Blender could not be simpler but 3Delight is still an absolute crap shoot for me. Are you using default lights or is this some kind of trickery buried in the bowels of my runtime?
Gorgeous rendering btw.
I think it’s partly Slide3D’s usage of lights along with, importantly, the reduced settings and shadow softness, and the new SSS shader which evens things out. I remember when Poser and Carrara folks started figuring out how to get better lighting by reducing the output level of the lights. I think the same applies here.

Nobile Type Dendrobiums
type Dendrobiums originate in the jungles of the Far East including
LIGHT† is easy to provide for these orchids. They require light shade conditions, as in the home in a west window, or near a south window. Some varieties can adapt to full sun as long as you have good air circulation. In the greenhouse, 3,000 to 5,000 foot-candles in general for most types. In the home, fluo≠rescent lighting is excellent; suspend two or four tubes 2 to 6 inches above the leaves.
TEMPERATURES cover a considerable range. Nobile type Dendrobiums traditionally require cool nights to set flowers but newer varieties have greatly reduced or eliminated this requirement. Older varities require† 50 to 60 F during the night and 75 to 80 F during the day. However, several new varieties will be good in a constant 70 tem≠perature range with excellent results. The plants can stand night temperatures in the 40s if necessary (as when grown outside in mild climates), as well as temperatures to 95 F.† Care must be taken to protect the plants from rot when cold (keep humidity low, and avoid moisture on leaves, and also to protect from burning when hot ( increase humidity and air movement around the plants). In lower temperatures the flowers last longer.
WATER must be available at the roots when blooming. This genus can take drying out better than most orchids surviving in the wild up to four months in the wild without hardly any rain. Nobile type Dendrobiums need to be thoroughly watered and then let dry out . Water about twice a week in our dry winters but more frequently when in bud, flower or new growth.†
HUMIDITY should be moderate, between 40 and 50 percent, which can be maintained in the home by setting the plants on humidity trays. In a greenhouse, average humidity is sufficient. Using an evaporative cooling system warm climates can increase the humidity. Air movement is essential, especially when humidity is high.
FERTILIZE on a regular schedule, but care must be taken to avoid too much nitrogen will cause poor flowering or production of Keikiís(off shoots). Nitrate based fertilizers are recommended. In warm weather, use one-half tea spoon per gal every other watering. It's important to flush with clear water monthly to leach excess fertilizer, which can burn roots. In cool weather, fertilizer applications once a month are sufficient..
P0TTING should be done about every year to a maximum of† two years, or as the medium decomposes. Seedlings and smaller plants are often repotted annually. Mixes vary tremendous≠ly; most are fine grade fir bark or coconut, with varying additives, such as per≠lite (sponge rock), and/or charcoal. Moisture retention with excellent drainage is needed. Large plants can be divided by pulling or cutting between growths of the leaves apart, into clumps of three to five growths. Smaller divisions will grow, but may not flower. Spread the roots over a small amount of medium in the bottom of the pot and fill with medium, so that the junction of roots and stem is buried 1/4 inch deep in the center of the pot. Do not over pot; an average plant should have a 4- to 6-inch pot.
FLOWERING can be controlled (Newer varieties will bloom without this treatment)by controlling temperature. After canes have completely matured (when tips of cane become round and hard) expose plants to temperatures below 57F for 25 nights consecutive† nights for a minimum of one hour(Best results 45-55 at night temp. in case you over fertilize).† Flower buds will be initiated and plants will bloom in approx. 50 days. Some of these newer varieties are Himezakura.† Spring Dream, and Sea Mary.

A Guide To Fractured Hip Recovery Times
A fractured hip can be debilitating and usually requires surgery to treat it. Recovering from a hip fracture can be very taxing, but it is also very important that you take all the appropriate measures to ensure your hip fracture can heal correctly. Here at The Health Experts, we want to help you get the most out of your recovery time, to give you some basic information that may
help you as you regain the full use of your hip following an injury. To do this, we have created a guide outlining the common fractured hip recovery times, the different types of hip fractures and broken hip treatment, tips for self-care at home, and more.
The hip is known as a ball and socket joint, which is comprised of the top of the femur sitting into a curved section of the pelvis. A break can occur in either the pelvis or the top of the femur, resulting in a fractured hip. There can be many causes of a hip fracture and among these can be heavy impacts from a fall or car accident. Recovery time for an injury like this can vary depending on the type of fracture you have, your age, and other factors.
Taking correct measures during your recovery could not only speed it up but could also result in a more efficient recovery overall. Some of these measures can include physiotherapy and orthopaedic treatment. To find out if you qualify for free orthopaedic treatment and physiotherapy aftercare that could speed up your healing process, contact our advisors today on 020 3870 4868, or use our online contact form, to have us call you back at a time that you suits you.

The hip joint is one of the largest weight bearing joints in our body. The risks of a broken hip can be quite high, so it could be very useful to understand how the hip works, and what can cause a broken or fractured hip. Knowing what to look for could make it easier for you to identify if you have a broken hip, and help you get treatment sooner rather than later, which is best when dealing with a fractured hip.
A hip fracture happens where a heavy impact causes either the top of the femur bone or pelvis to break or shatter. Fractured hip symptoms can include:
- Pain in the hip, leg or lower back
- Bruising or swelling around the hip
- Not being able to weight on your injured leg
- You leg may turn outwards awkwardly
- Finding it difficult to move or control your leg
- Or the injured leg may sometimes look shorter than the other
This guide contains more broken hip symptoms, and gives more advice on the steps to follow if you believe you may have broken your hip.
Symptoms for each person can vary, and it is important that if you notice any signs of a hip fracture like the symptoms listed above that you seek medical attention as soon as possible. This is especially important in hip injuries due to the high number of blood vessels, tendons and nerves that run through the hip joint, which is why a hip fracture can be so dangerous. Your doctor will usually check to determine if you have a fractured hip with an X-Ray, or scan. In some cases, you can also physically see that the injured leg looks shorter than the other.
Fractured hips can happen for many reasons, such as falls from a height, for example you could get a broken hip from falling off a roof while doing repairs, car accidents, etc. but they are more common in those over the age of 65. In the elderly, hip fractures commonly happen because of falls from standing height. Long distance runners and ballerinas can also develop hairline hip fractures over years of high impacts on their femurs. Those with osteoporosis are also prone to hip fractures if they have a fall, as their bones are less dense than those without the condition.
There are different kinds of fractured hip types that are classified based on which bones are damaged, and where on each bone it happens. To understand them it is necessary to know that the top of the femur bone is ball shaped, and slots into the curved section of the pelvis also known as the acetabulum. In most cases of a fractured hip joint, surgery is necessary to access the joint and correctly reset the bones.
For patients that are not suitable candidates for surgery, e.g. those with pre-existing conditions that could put them in danger while under anaesthetic, the treatment would be medication, apply external supports to help reset it and to be kept under observation to see how the injury heals by itself. Physically there is no difference between a left or right hip fracture, and treatment would be the same for both.
Treatments to certain fractures can vary, depending on if the blood supply to the bone has been affected, or there is any other kind of nerve or tendon damage. The most well-known hip fracture types are:
In this type of fracture, the upper ball section of the femur has become completely separated from the rest of the femur bone. The ball can sometimes be reattached, but this has a lower success rate and often needs replacing. That is why an intracapsular fracture is usually treated with a partial or full hip replacement.
Subtrochanteric or femoral shaft fractures
In this type of fracture, the break happens 1 to 2 inches down the femur bone. This fracture can be treated by realigning the bones, and securing them in place with pins or plates, or in some cases a combination of both.
Intertrochanteric hip fracture
This is where a break in the femur bone happens further away from the pelvis, down to about 3 or 4 inches away. Similar to femoral shaft fractures, intertrochanteric hip fractures can be treated by surgically realigning the bones and pinning them in place using plates, pins or surgical screws.
This is a fracture to the hip socket, it is rare and is usually the result of very heavy trauma to the hip, such as car accident. This fracture involves a break in the acetabulum, the curved section of the pelvis where the ball section of the femur sits. The treatment for this kind of injury depends on the extent of damage to the acetabulum. Sometimes it can be repaired using the pin and plate fixation, otherwise a total hip replacement may be recommended.
Due to the different types of possible fracture, recovery times can vary. More extensive damage may take longer to heal than clean fractures. The recovery time after a hip pinning surgery also takes less time that a non-surgical treatment. Hip fracture recovery times without surgery take longer because the fractures are not secured and don’t heal as well without intervention.
In any type of fracture, your doctor or team of physicians will create a rehabilitation programme for you to follow, both while you’re in hospital, and after you have gone home. This programme can sometimes include physiotherapy. Most people don’t realise that they might be eligible for free physiotherapy aftercare, which can greatly improve your recovery times. Contact us today to find out if you qualify for free health care.
Age is also a factor in recovery times for this type of injury. Broken hip recovery time for the elderly is known to take longer than those of a younger age. This is due to the fact that those of an older age may have pre-existing conditions that make recovery more difficult and could even prevent a hip fracture being treated with surgery. For example, broken hip recovery time for elderly people with dementia may be prolonged or prevented as they find it harder to perform rehabilitation exercises than those with average cognitive abilities.
Although there are many factors that can influence your individual recovery, we have included a basic broken hip recovery timeline to help give you an idea of how long it may take on average to recover from having surgery on a broken hip.
- Depending on your circumstances, such as level of mobility, pre-existing conditions, etc. the length of time you spend in hospital following surgery can vary.
- Stitches or staples may be removed within 10 to 21 days depending on healing
- For the first 3 to 4 months your broken hip may have swelling
- Depending the success of your rehabilitation, it may be from 4 weeks to 4 months until you will be able to return to work.
- It can take between 6 months to 1 year before you feel fully recovered.
It is difficult to estimate the timeline for broken hip recovery without surgery, but this NHS article gives some more helpful information on recovering from a hip fracture.
Pain is a normal symptom to have while you are recovering from a hip injury. Managing the pain is something your doctor will discuss with you, especially during your time in hospital. It is common for your doctor to prescribe medication to control pain such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or opioids. It is important to note that overuse of opioids can sometimes result in an addiction. Your doctor will take measures to try and prevent this by using a combination of different pain relievers, such as NSAIDs, paracetamol and lower doses of opioids.
You could also help the pain your self by applying a cold compress to the area and elevating your hips to ease swelling. It is also important to rest when you need it, but also try to avoid laying in bed for too long, to help prevent painful stiffness in the joint.
Broken hip survival rates in those over 65 of years of age are lower than those that are younger. This is due to many factors that can affect an elderly person’s ability to recover. As mentioned, rehabilitation is very important in helping a person regain their mobility and independence. Sometimes an elderly person cannot appropriately engage in their rehabilitation programme, for example, if they’re mobility was already low before their injury. This could lower their chances of recovering from the injury at all and could also make any other under-lying conditions worse.
There are many services available to assist an elderly person recover from a broken hip. The NHS and Age UK both have useful pages on receiving help at home and offer more advice on how to go about arranging help for those who require some more assistance while they recover from a hip fracture.
The length of time a person may spend in the hospital following a fractured hip depends on the type of injury, and what treatment they may have had. It can also be affected by the individual person’s recovery time. Those that have not had surgery may have to stay in hospital for longer, to remain under observation while the injury heals.
If you are well enough, you could possibly leave the hospital 1 week after your surgery, otherwise, how soon you return home depends on your own personal progress following the operation.
Follow up care after a broken hip will be instrumental in ensuring you make the best recovery. Follow up appointments will include checking on the wound and removing any staples of stitches. They would also include more X-Rays or scans to monitor the progress of your healing. At this point your doctor would also help you adjust your rehabilitation plan, based on how far your recovery has come.
Other appointments you may have following your surgery could include physiotherapy sessions. Depending on your individual situation, these sessions could be very important. Physiotherapy is an active way of helping your hip to recover, and many people in the UK don’t realise that they might qualify for free physiotherapy and other medical treatments. Contact our team today to find out in under a minute.
Staying mobile throughout your recovery is important, but always check with your doctor to see if you are ready to start doing your own exercises at home before you attempt any of the following. Putting too much pressure on your recovering hip could cause further injury or slow your recovery. There are many different types of exercises you could do at home, depending on how much progress you have made in your recovery.
For each of these you should be lying flat on your back:
- Bend and straighten your injured leg.
- Keeping your knees straight, push your leg out to the side and return to starting position.
- Bend both knees up, with your feet flat, and gently lift your bottom up, squeezing your bottom cheeks together, then lower back down.
You can perform each of these while sitting on a chair:
- Straighten your knee out in front of you, hold for 5 seconds, then lower to the ground.
- With both feet flat on the ground, raise both heels up off the ground, then gently lower them to the ground again.
- Slide the foot of your inured leg forwards and backwards along the floor.
- Lift your injured knee slowly towards your chest, then lower gently back to the floor.
These should be completed while holding on to something to support you:
- With your support in front of you, raise your knee up towards your chest, then gently lower back down to the ground
- With your support beside you, lift your injured leg out to the side, then return it to the ground.
- With your support in front of you, bend both knees and lower yourself down as far as is comfortable, then gently raise yourself back up to the standing potion.
- With your support in front of you, push the foot of your injured leg out behind you, keeping both knees straight, then return to the floor.
It is also advised that you try your best to perform day to day tasks where possible, such as walking around the house, climbing the stairs, driving, etc. It is important that you seek the advice of your doctor, and only do exercises that are within your safe range of movement, depending on what your hip can handle.
Below is a summary of basic statistics relating to hip fractures in the UK. See this National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) page for more information:
Hip fractures per year: 70 -75,000.
Projected number of hip fractures projected for 2020: 101,000.
Average age for those admitted to hospital with a hip fracture: 75 – 77 years old.
Patients requiring institutional aftercare following a hip fracture: 10 – 20%.
Mortality rates for those following a hip fracture:
- 10% in the first month.
- 33% in 12 months following the injury
Less than half of the deaths included in the above statistics are caused directly by a fractured hip. It is more common for a hip injury to highlight or aggravate underlying health conditions, which can further complicate the recovery process.
Physiotherapy will begin the day after your surgery. This is because it is so important to get your hip moving as soon as possible. A physiotherapist will work with you the entire time you are in the hospital, guiding you through exercises you can do that will help to rebuild and restore the strength in your hip.
After you leave hospital, you will continue with a rehabilitation programme that includes physiotherapy. As you get stronger, the physiotherapist will increase the intensity of your exercises, to keep encouraging your hip to get stronger and more stable. Physiotherapy could also help to improve pain and swelling, as the joint loosens up, and the blood flow to the area is improved.
As with any injury or surgery, physiotherapy could be highly beneficial to your recovery, and over all well-being. Contact our health team today to see if you qualify for free physiotherapy aftercare, that could make all the difference to your recovery.
Many people are unaware that they might be eligible for free health care from a local provider. Our team could tell you in 30 seconds if you might qualify, for healthcare that could greatly improve how you recover from your fractured hip.
This free healthcare could include professional assessment of broken bone reports, physiotherapy aftercare, medical equipment to assist your mobility, and other orthopaedic treatments. Contact us today, and our advisors could help you find out if you qualify on 020 3870 4868 or use our online contact form to get us to call you whenever you like.

Montreux Jazz Café
Deep in the heart of Orchard, a speakeasy-harking den devoted to jazz and blues has risen. Its name will be familiar to fans of the genre: Montreux Jazz Café. Yes, of the jazz festival fame. The intimate space in Pan Pacific Orchard, racked with memorabilia and vintage posters, is only the sixth of its kind in the world, and the first in the region. But on to the music. The Café plays host to a roster of local and international cats, as well as the odd DJ or two, in gigs that go on until the bar closes, ’round about midnight. Expect blues, fusion, smooth jazz and a healthy dose of standards – already, the likes of local jazz legend Jeremy Monteiro and British soul sensation Omar have taken the venue’s stage. Don’t let its name fool you, though. This is not a café so much as a restaurant and bar. An exhaustive list of cocktails ($16-$26) ranges from your classic Manhattans to the signature The Girl from Ipanema that, true to its bossa nova-inspired name, mixes Cachaca 51 with lemon juice, orange juice and passion fruit. The food, on the other hand, takes cues from hearty European fare: think Croque Madames ($18) and pan-roasted sea bass fillets ($22).
You know a place is serious about its music when its tiny stage is dominated by a grand piano. Yeah, a legit Yamaha C2 is the backbone upon which this red-slathered bar in Boat Quay is founded – and it has even roped in Bon Goût Music, founded by the fearless jazz pianist Aya Sekine, to run the music programme. There isn’t a house band here, so you’ll have to keep tabs on Club L’Opera’s Facebook page to find out when its twice-monthly gigs (from 7.30 to 10.30pm) are held. Given Sekine’s eclectic style – she used to play at Blu Jaz Cafe alongside DJs, beatboxers and other jazz musicians – the music at Club L’Opera ranges from bebop and swing to free improv and vocal jazz. The gigs are all ticketed ($15-$30), and you’ll also need to order at least one drink.
The Singapore Jazz Club
The name says it all, really. This high-ceilinged joint, draped in red curtains, is all about old-school jazz, R&B and Motown. Resident pianist Mario Serio hits the keys every Thursday, hosting the venue’s VOX series of shows: a pairing of pianist and vocalist. Also pop by every Sunday, when these cats take the stage for a no-holds-barred jam session. There’s no cover charge for the latter, but tickets for the other gigs range from $15 to $20.
Switch by Timbre
Mandopop/rock doesn’t get its due credit among the Pitchfork faithful here, but there’s no denying the genre is the most commercially successful Singaporean music. Enter this bar and restaurant by the Timbre group that sets its sights on fledgling musos who can rock their Beyond and Wu Bai. Three resident bands and musicians – The Switch Gang, Tay Kexin and Too Much Drama – rotate every day of the week, sans Sunday, with tunes ranging from Jay Chou tearjerkers to harder numbers. Tuesdays are gentler acoustic nights, so if you’re in the mood for love, head over to Switch then.
Barber Shop by Timbre
The baby of the Timbre family swung open in 2014 with one mission in mind: to put live music front and centre. True to the group’s calling card, it’s mostly blues, classic rock, funk and other barn-storming genres that ring out at this den in The Arts House. Wednesdays see house band Raw Earth stamp the stage with their blood-and-guts blues, Thursday’s an open mic session (from 8 to 11.30pm), Friday is reserved for the Barber Shop Quartet’s swing and roots rock, and Saturday is a double-bill: a special artist showcase from 7pm, followed by a classic rock jam by Good Question.

Last month, I covered a demo tape from an excellent raw black metal band known as Blut Der Nacht. Not long after, I was contacted by Mike, the owner of BDN’s label, Fallen Empire Records. Mike told me that BDN also had a couple of side projects up their sleeves that he was planning on releasing. Needless to say, I was eager to hear what else these musicians were capable of, so I waited patiently for any scrap of information regarding these projects.
The wait is over. Fallen Empire have released two limited edition tapes featuring Wylve and The Rain in Endless Fall, the unholy spawn of BDN’s members. Very different than the furiously concise, scathing violence that is BDN, both Wylve and TRIEF explore the more hypnotic, ambient sides of black metal, w/o sacrificing any of BDN’s raw darkness. I especially enjoy the eerie atmosphere of TRIEF. I’d say more, but I’d much rather let the music speak for itself.
An exclusive preview track featuring songs from both of these excellent demos can be heard below.
Both tapes are out now and available directly from Fallen Empire. The first press is limited to just thirty-three copies of each, and I’m told is already well on it’s way to selling out after just one day of release. Once these are completely gone, a final pressing of thirty-three combining both releases w/ alternate artwork will be released. For those not down w/ cassettes, both demos will be available in MP3 form at Svn Okklt blog as a free download shortly.

2012 child abuse case upgraded to homicide
A child who was brought to Johns Hopkins Hospital in 2012 at 11 months old with extreme malnutrition died in May 2019. His death is being considered a homicide as direct result of abuse.
Baltimore police said on July 31, 2012, officers were called to Johns Hopkins Hospital for a case of child abuse to an 11-month-old baby. Officials said the child, identified as Caleb Carter, was brought in by his parents Monique Carter and Joseph Carter III.
Caleb was suffering extreme malnutrition over a long period of time, brain atrophy associated with lack of protein and nutrients, bone deformity from lack of calcium and other medical issues associated with malnutrition, police said.
His parents were arrested and charged with first- and second-degree child abuse, neglect of a minor and reckless endangerment and were sentenced to time in prison.
On May 21, Caleb succumbed to his injuries, but Baltimore homicide detectives were not notified of his death until Oct. 7. The chief medical examiner deemed his death a direct result of being abused.
The case has been upgraded to a homicide.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Culebra Gorgeous Enhancer
I own this from Barbara Bixby's first iteration. This enhancer is beyond lovely. I still wear it often and alway get compliments. It is unique. Highly recommend!
Rated 5 out of 5 by hol900 Most Favorite Enhancer Ever!
I am delighted to see this available again! I bought this years ago and fell in love with it instantly but alas, it was STOLEN! I was heartbroken. Now I'm ordering it again and can't wait to get it! The heart is a lovely chunky piece of deeply colored carnelian; not orange but more of a deep red-burgundy. The turquoise really makes it pop along with the beautiful sterling scroll work and frame of gold around the turquoise. It is dramatic, bold and stunning. You will be thrilled with this when it arrives to your home!
Rated 5 out of 5 by TechGal Stunningly Gorgeous
I just received this and it is even prettier than the picture shows. The design is beautiful, balanced and artistically gorgeous. It is large and I wore it on a 32 " chain . I"m not sure I would wear it on 18" chain as it seems too large - but maybe with the right outfit!! The only concern I have is that there is no safety guard on the bail. It seems likely that it could come loose and I would lose this precious gem. I may end up sending it back because I love, love, love it and would be heartbroken if I lost it because of no safety guard.
Rated 5 out of 5 by dpaul Classic
I bought this for a Barbara Bixby necklace. I love the weight and size of this piece.
It stands alone! Has a great look. I also like to wear a turqouise bead chain necklace with it. Just makes this pendant pop!
Best enhancer she has ever done!
Rated 5 out of 5 by ripka junkie Wanted This Pendant Forever!
Beautiful and classic BB. The Turquoise really pops on the Carnelian and such beautiful detail to this heart !
Rated 5 out of 5 by Blackhawk Echoing the other reviews...
I also got this years ago and love it more now than when I got it. Every time I put it on I appreciate the amount of work and thought that went into it. Like the matching earrings, the back is just as pretty as the front, and you can reverse the pendant! I have several BB pieces and I really love them all, hard to pick favorites. BB stuff is pricey at first glance, but over time I forget what I paid because I wear each piece time and time again and never fail to marvel at the detail and quality.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JLLH358 SO HAPPY TO SEE THIS OLD FRIEND AGAIN!!
This was one of the first pieces I bought from Barbara's line back in the day. It has always reminded me of something from a museum -- so unique and lovely. Yes, the carnelian is dark, but it is a thick stone and that pop of turquoise and the white topaz and silver with the pearl top enhance the look overall and keep it from being too dark a piece. It's one of my all time favorites and I'm so glad they brought this one back. Yes, the bail does come off. That is not a defect, but done on purpose so you can wear it the way you want. If you are wondering whether or not to get this, wonder no longer. It's a MUST! I don't think there are many out there who have purchased it and wanted to return it after seeing it!
Rated 5 out of 5 by quietlady Stunning
I have owned this enhancer for many years and it is one of my favorites. I'm so happy to see that Barbara Bixby is bringing back some of her past designs. I highly recommend this enhancer - it is beautiful and timeless.

It is important to have homogenous temperature distribution inside solar receivers and reactors. This paper presents a methodologic adaptation of a burner nozzle for use with a solar receiver to test and compare the performance of mixing effect of the nozzle with that of used in combustion system. Design steps are described per understanding of the influence of burner nozzle and then creation of a new type of injection port for a solar reactor via adaptive modification. Influence of the nozzle design on the temperature distribution inside a solar reactor is studied per experimental testing of the solar receiver with the new nozzle using a 7 kW high flux solar simulator. Finally, a CFD simulation of the flow pattern inside the solar receiver is given. The results show that it is possible to create different flow patterns inside a solar reactor and enhance the mixing of reactants. The results also show that nozzle provides more homogenous temperature distribution inside the solar reactor. This research demonstrates that implementation of a technique used in a mature field like combustion into solar thermal technology may inspire adaptation of other applications from combustion field to solar thermal field which would accelerate developments in emerging solar thermochemical process technology.

A 55-year-old male patient presented with numerous elevated facial swellings with ulceration of a single swelling over the right side of the scalp. According to the patient, he started developing small swellings on the face around the age of 15 years, which increased in number over the years. The patient started developing two new swellings over the forehead and the right side of the scalp around 7 years ago, which progressively became much larger. Around 2 months ago, the swelling on the right side of the scalp became painful and burst open to leave a wound that is increasing rapidly. He gave a history of similar facial swellings being present in his elder son who was 30 years old. On examination, a large fungating ulcer with raised edges was seen over the right parietal scalp [Figure 1]. The base was indurated and pale granulation tissue was observed in the floor of the ulcer. The ulcer bled on touch. A large skin-colored, firm swelling was observed on the left side of the forehead. In addition, numerous skin-colored to yellowish papules were found on the forehead, glabella, nose, naso-labial folds and upper lip [Figure 2]. Routine investigations were within normal limits. Two skin biopsies were performed, one from one of the smaller swellings in the upper lip and another from the margin of the ulcerated lesion on the scalp. The facial skin biopsy showed aggregations of basaloid cells. The tumor islands showed peripheral palisading of their cells [Figure 3]. Few horn cysts were also seen. [Figure 4] The skin biopsy from the scalp revealed irregular masses of epidermal cells proliferating downwards into the dermis. A large number of atypical squamous cells with variation in shape and size and hyperchromasia of the nuclei was seen [Figure 5]. Therefore, a diagnosis of multiple familial trichoepitheliomas in association with squamous cell carcinoma of scalp was made. The patient was referred to the surgical outpatient department for further management.

Trichoepitheliomas are hamartomas of hair germ. It can be solitary, multiple or desmoplastic type. Multiple trichoepitheliomas ( Brooke-Fordyce disease More Details) are mostly transmitted as an autosomal-dominant trait. Association of multiple trichoepitheliomas with malignancy is rare and most of the cases described are basal cell carcinomas. , Occasionally, trichoepitheliomas cannot be reliably differentiated from keratotic or morphea-like basal cell carcinomas. This difficulty could be the reason behind some of the apparent associations, whereas the present case describes an association between multiple trichoepitheliomas and squamous cell carcinoma, a rare occurrence.
Brooke-Spiegler syndrome More Details consists of multiple trichoepitheliomas, cylindromas, spiradenomas and milia.  Brooke-Spiegler syndrome can also be rarely associated with cutaneous malignancies.  In the present case, the biopsy from the scalp lesion showed features of squamous cell carcinoma, but no features of cylindroma or spiradenoma. However, malignant transformation of a previous cylindroma or spiradenoma cannot be ruled out.
Familial trichoepithelioma is a rare condition. In this case, a very rare association of familial trichoepithelioma with squamous cell carcinoma was seen. This implies that such cases should be kept under long-term observation because of the possibility of malignant transformation.

Celebrity couple James Reid and Issa Pressman were facing separation rumors after eagle-eyed netizens noticed that they were already unfollowing each other on Instagram.
On November 10, 2023, several netizens noticed that the two were not following each other already, a hint that the two were having problems.
It could be recalled that couples who were unfollowing each other on social media were an indicator of the state of their relationship.
The relationship between the two was unpopular among netizens since they’re more rooting for James and Nadine Lustre’s reconciliation.
“Good na good ang morning,” netizen Crisel Oli said.
“The world is healing na talaga,” netizen Jessa wrote.
“Sa lahat ng news dito ako pinaka natuwa,” netizen Angel remarked.
As of writing, Issa and James have yet to give any statement on the breakup rumors.
The two disclosed their relationship this year and even Issa proclaimed that James was ‘obsessed’ with her.
“I really felt like, I wouldn’t have gone through that situation if it wasn’t for him. He really made me feel comfortable, strong, safe, very much protected. And he always made me see the positive in every single negative, you know, and that brought up the positivity in me… But I’m happy. We’re happy,” she said.

Indian Railways Connects Main Tunnel in J&K with Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link Project1 min read
The major and longest tunnel of T-49 between Sumber and Arpinchala stations of the Katra-Banihal section of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project was linked by Indian Railways. The local population was engaged for numerous tasks throughout the lengthy tunnel’s construction. India’s first cable-stayed rail bridge was shared by the Ministry of Railways. The Anji Khad Bridge will connect the J&K sections of Katra and Reasi. The bridge is part of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla project, which spans 272 kilometres.
“T-49 is 12.758-Km-long tunnel and it is going to be the longest tunnel of Indian Railway surpassing Peer Panjal Tunnel of 11.2 Km length completed by USBRL on Banihal-Qazigund route,” Northern Railways stated in a series of tweets.
