What does the dark outfit do Botw?
- Breath of the Wild The Dark Tunic, alongside the Dark Hood and Dark Trousers, compose the Dark Series.
- When the full set is worn, it provides a Night Speed Up bonus.
- Also, characters get scared when they see Link wearing it.
Par ailleurs, Can Silver Lynels Teleport? 9 They Have The Ability To Teleport As Well This only happens when a Lynel is stuck on the terrain, is too far away from its patrolling route, or needs to reach Link in a rather obtuse location. It’s one of the rarest things ever for a Lynel to teleport, which is what makes this occurrence all the more special.
What is the strongest Armor in Botw?
The best armour in Breath of the Wild is the Ancient set – the Ancient Helm, Cuirass, and Greaves – and is only obtainable after you complete a specific side quest – Robbie’s Research – and you’ve then collected the right materials to be traded in at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab.
Puis Is there an evil Link?
What does the Phantom Ganon Armor do? The Phantom Ganon Set is a set of armor featured in Breath of the Wild. It can only be obtained after purchasing the Expansion Pass. The pieces of armor are found in the Faron province. The full set makes Stal Monsters neutral, and gives Link an Attack Up bonus when using bone-related weapons.
What is a Lynels weakness?
If you are confident with a bow, hitting a Lynel in the face will stun it. Using a bow that fires multiple arrows makes this a tad easier. Using Ice Arrows or stasis will freeze the Lynel temporarily.
Which color Lynel is the hardest?
Luckily the beast bears the same attacks as its lighter counterparts. Then there’s Silver Lynel, the hardest enemy in the game.
Do Lynels Respawn blood moons?
Lynels and Mini-bosses respawn. Mini-bosses include the Hinoxes, Taluses, Moldugas, and the EX Champions’ Ballad DLC mini-bosses (Igneo Talus Titan and Molduking). Show activity on this post. Yes.
Do the monster masks work Botw?
There are nine masks in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The first four can be purchased from Kilton the Monster Parts Merchant. The last five require specific amiibo. Wearing each mask will provide protection from those particular monsters as long as the mask is worn (but only temporary for the Lynel).
Can you get a Yiga mask in BOTW?
The Yiga Mask is a mask that offers no protection or has any enchantments on it and cannot be tempered. It can be found in False God Passage and on Yiga enemies.
Does the Bokoblin mask work?
Bokoblin Masks are pieces of Armor that can be purchased from Kilton at the Fang and Bone. They cannot be enhanced by a Great Fairy, nor can they be Dyed at the Kochi Dye Shop. When worn, Link can blend in with Bokoblins; however, Bokoblin Masks will not prevent other enemies in the same area from attacking.
How much health do Lynels have?
Lynel – This basic Lynel has a red mane. You most likely met one during the Divine Beast Vah Ruta Main Quest. This creature has 2,000 HP.
How do I get Botw on Yiga mask?
Location. A guaranteed Yiga Mask can be found in False God Passage, which is accessed via the Rift Secret Grotto. It is buried in the fireplace just outside of the Cult Headquarters. Yiga Footsoldiers and Yiga Blademasters also carry Yiga Masks.
Can the Hylian shield break?
While the Hylian Shield has a vast amount of durability, unlike the Master Sword it’s not invincible and can break. If that happens, it won’t no longer appear inside the Hylian Castle Lockup, and instead must be purchased from a special vendor after the end of a long quest.
Can you join the Yiga Clan?
Travelers are members of the Yiga Clan in disguise who can be found scattered along roadsides throughout Hyrule Kingdom after one of two possible conditions are met: either by completing the « Seek Out Impa » Main Quest, or by entering the Yiga Clan Hideout.
Is there a Yiga Clan mask?
Yiga Clan Masks are worn by all active members of the Yiga Clan over their face. It is held on by matte iron rivets in a cross shape which spans the rest of their head.
Does the Yiga Clan ever stop?
They would stop you, decide to fight you, and then you could just open a can of whoopass on them and continue your way. But after clearing the hideout, now there’s the guards that spawn every once in a while. And they are not like their old counter parts.
Is there an unbreakable sword in BOTW?
The Master Sword is unique in that it’s the only unbreakable weapon in the game. Its durability wanes with use, but after a few minutes recharging in your inventory, it’s good to go again. It’s worth finding the sword as it does double damage against Ganon and his minions.
How many hits can the Hylian Shield take?
The Hylian shield, assuming it has not taken any damage before, can withstand 27 guardian blasts before breaking. It will only break after a single blast if it has taken substantial damage beforehand.
What is the best sword in BOTW?
Of all the weapons in Breath of the Wild, the Master Sword is by far the best. This weapon is a special one because it doesn’t actually break, it just needs to be recharged after being used for a while. But this powerful weapon and its special properties don’t come without some sacrifices.

To Tuscany, one of the UK’s leading providers of elegantly appointed and authentic retreats and villas in Tuscany, joins the region in welcoming the coming New Year with an exciting line-up of festivities. While Tuscany is exceedingly vibrant throughout the year with its events and celebrations, the folkloric events scheduled throughout January 2014 are guaranteed to be even more memorable than ever. Tourists planning to have a vacation in Tuscany are highly advised to take note of these traditional events so that they can plan around them.
For starters, Tuscany kicks off with a traditional event on the night of January 5th called â€˜Piancastagnaio Befanate Befanotti’, during which groups of â€˜befanotti’, dressed in ragged clothes with faces covered with soot, travel from village to village singing a begging song and requesting offerings. The sense of revelry is upped on January 6th, during the Epiphany Fair (â€˜Sinalunga Fiera dell’Epifania’), when the locals celebrate the arrival of the Three Wise Men. To Tuscany offers accommodations throughout the region to enable visitors to be right in the middle of where the action is.
Moreover, on the days leading to January 17th, attention shifts to the meticulous preparation for the Festival of St. Anthony the Abbot, (Abbadia San Salvadore Festa S. Antonio Abate’). The said festival actually consists of multiple aspects including the blessing of the animals, the blessing of the grain and the hay, the blessed bread, and the distribution of these items. These celebrations are followed by another related celebration on the first Sunday after the 17th.
Finally, on the 31st, townsfolk hold a magnificent and vibrant fair in Piazza del Duomo and Piazza della Cistern in San Gimignano in celebration of the San Gimignano Festival (â€˜San Gimignano Festa e fiera di San Gimignano’). As these celebrations are consecutively held, To Tuscany recommends that visitors should book ahead for accommodation. They can choose from among the company’s portfolio of more than four hundred properties across the region.
A vacation in Tuscany, Italy is not complete without enjoying a deep sense of authenticity. Since 1998, To Tuscany has provided clients with that authentic experience in every Tuscany villa the company has in its portfolio of up to 400 properties for rent.

You may have heard of autism. What you may not have thought of is that it’s not just a non-Muslim issue.
According to the Center for Disease Control, autism is experienced by as many as 1 in 59 children. That includes Muslim children too.
“Autism, or autism spectrum disorder, refers to a range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communication, as well as by unique strengths and differences,” reports Autism Speaks. “We now know that there is not one autism but many types, caused by different combinations of genetic and environmental influences.
“The term ‘spectrum’ reflects the wide variation in challenges and strengths possessed by each person with autism.”
Parents often notice symptoms of autism during their children’s first two years of life. That’s when Dilshad Ali, of Richmond, VA, suspected that her eldest son, D, had the condition.
“I suspected him to have autism when he was 2,” said Ali, a mother of three children and a journalist. “He never pointed, he didn’t make eye contact. He used to line his toys up. Things like that. In the beginning we placated ourselves by saying that boys talk later. But it wasn’t long before I realized that he needed specialized help.”
Ali spoke to D’s pediatrician about his behavior and had him enrolled him in a school for the autistic. He is now 17 and has been getting special schooling for the past 14 years.
“At first D learned the typical type of things that was part of his natural development, such as reading and writing. Over time we added more self-care, more vocational skills, the sort of things needed to take care of himself,” said Ali.
“He has never called me Mama. He knows I’m his mother, but he’s nonverbal. That’s not to say he’s not communicative. D does communicate with us. For example he uses an app from an iPad to communicate different things. There are times when it’s not perfect though and he gets frustrated that he can’t communicate with us.”
For others, their experience with a family member who has autism is all they have ever known.
“I would remind people that autism is very unique to people who experience it. Some people have a very mild version, while others have a very tough version where they need to be taken care of in different ways, such as my brother,” said Jawwad Akbari from Halifax, Canada.
“My brother is older than me. I don’t know when I started realizing that he had autism. I couldn’t give a set time when it was clear he was different,” said the university student.
“Growing up with him I guess the major thing it taught me was patience. Now, alhamdulillah, he’s really settled down. Growing up he had a lot of mood swings. As he grew and matured you’d still have to have a sense of responsibility around him,” said Akbari. “At times it has pushed me out of my comfort zones. For example he might be very hyper and loud in situations when he needs to be quiet and we would have to calm him down.
““It’s interesting that what you think of when autism comes to mind is that typically they have a very hard time being around people, but my brother is different,” said Akbari. “He likes being around family for example, he just has a hard time communicating.”
Ali said that her friends and family have always been very accepting, in part because she is so open about her son’s condition. She has taken to blogging on Patheos for several years about her experience with her son (http://www.patheos.com/blogs/muslimahnextdoor/). However, she says that the Muslim community in general has lagged far behind in making accommodations.
“Fundamentally in our community there have been a lot of good hearts. It’s not like they say don’t bring him [to the masjid]. But as far as anyone stepping up and making accommodations by themselves, no.”
Ali mentioned that Muslims Understanding & Helping Education Needs (MUHSEN), of which she is a board member, is trying to help Muslim community members with disabilities.
“Even I, when I served as Imam of Masjid Abu Bakr in New Orleans, mistakenly sent a child with autism home from Quran class not knowing his condition,” said Sheikh Omar Suleiman, founder of MUHSEN.
Suleiman is not the parent of a child with autism, but was inspired to found MUHSEN in part due to his mother’s experience having suffered from cancer and several strokes.
“Many times I go to a city and parents with children in wheelchairs say their kids badly wanted to come but couldn’t get into the masjid. Even worse, parents with children who have autism email me saying that they wish they could attend but have to stay home with their child,” said Suleiman on MUHSEN’s web site.
“All of us need a change of attitude. … The Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) deeply cared about including [the disabled] in every activity possible.
“Creating accommodations for the disabled has been done by other communities,” said Ali. “We just need to copy and paste. The resources are being developed and they are out there now. If you are thinking our community doesn’t have the money for it, or that we don’t have the time, you might be surprised.”
MUHSEN provides certification for masjids offering access to the disabled (https://muhsen.org/masjid-certification/). This includes everything from wheelchair access to braille Qur’ans to close-captioned screens.
According to Autism Canada (https://autismcanada.org/aging-and-autism/), “Having first been described in the 1940s, the first generation of people diagnosed with autism in childhood are now reaching mid to later life and little is known about what happens during these years.”
Family members sometimes wrestle with thoughts of what will happen when they are no longer able to protect their children.
“All of us with children who have autism think about what will have happen when we are no longer around to care for him,” said Ali. “Who will care for him, how will he live, where will he live, and so on. Also you think about what will his day-to-day living be like, what roles will his siblings have when is older.
“You try to have faith, but also lay the groundwork for the future,” said Ali

Luby’s Pursuing the Sale of Its Restaurants and Assets
A Texas staple may soon be closing its doors for good.
The coronavirus pandemic has been particularly hard on the restaurant industry, with Houston-based Luby’s the latest to fall victim.
The company announced that it would pursue the sale of its restaurants and assets and distribute net proceeds to stockholders in a statement last week. Luby’s will continue to operate its restaurants during the sale process.
In addition to Luby’s Cafeteria, the company also operates Fuddruckers and Culinary Contract Services.
The press release states:
Luby’s will explore a variety of potential transactions, including selling the Company’s operating divisions: Luby’s Cafeteria, Fuddruckers, and Culinary Contract Services, as well as its real estate, or selling the Company in its entirety. Net proceeds obtained from any such transactions, after satisfying the Company’s debt and other obligations, will ultimately be distributed to Luby’s stockholders.
I realize this is wishful thinking (especially during a pandemic), but hopefully someone will swoop in and save the day and keep Luby’s up and running. We’ll keep a close eye on the story and provide updates when more information comes our way.

4 August, 2020Inditex, the leading multinational company in the garment industry that owns Zara and other high street brands, and IndustriALL Global Union, will together support the global garment industry to recover from the crisis created by the pandemic.
The organizations pledged to do this in a joint declaration signed in Arteixo and Geneva on 4 August.
In many countries that produce garments for the sector, including Bangladesh, Pakistan, Cambodia and Turkey, fashion retailers cancelled orders during lockdown, leading to largescale job losses and economic hardship for workers in countries without furlough schemes. A major purpose of this agreement is a commitment to stable payment terms and financing to support suppliers’ cash flow. This will enable them to honour payments to workers so that jobs and incomes are protected.
The agreement builds on a longstanding partnership between the company and the global union, which began with a global framework agreement signed in 2007 and renewed in 2019.
The agreement pledges to respect freedom of association and collective bargaining rights, giving workers the right to join a union to advance their interests. It promotes social dialogue at all levels, and commits both organizations to working with governments and business organizations in source countries.
The health and safety of workers will be ensured. Supplier companies will implement protective measures, and provide personal protective equipment. As Covid-19 restrictions are lifted and economies reopen, Inditex and the global union committee will monitor the safe resumption of normal operations.
IndustriALL general secretary Valter Sanches said:
“The Covid-19 pandemic caused a crisis in the textile and garment industry that led unions to experience mass job losses, unsafe working conditions and attacks on workers’ rights. Many of our members saw their livelihoods collapse entirely.
“The manufacturing suppliers need stability and predictability so that employment and income can be preserved. That’s what this commitment entails. We are working together to help the industry to develop the resilience to recover from the crisis, saving jobs and preserving the rights and income of workers.”

However, an old picture of Bukola Saraki at an event with the alleged armed robber has surfaced online leaving everyone spechless. It is believed, the event happens to be the wedding of Saraki’s daughter.

What started out as a compassionate goal for saving the environment has evolved into the pursuit for innovation and design in recycled plastic outdoor furniture.
- EACH ADIRONDACK CHAIR USES 579 RECYCLED MILK JUGS!
- Won't rust or rot
- 25-year warranty
- Call us right now to check color and availability
"Our outdoor furniture is made from up to 100% recycled plastic, which diverts millions of pounds of plastic that would have been destined for landfill or ocean.
We use High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) plastic, grind it up and blend it together with pigment. HDPE plastic is
common in bottle caps, milk jugs and orange juice containers (No. 2 plastic ).
We take these post-consumer and post-industrial plastics, and use them to make beautiful outdoor furniture.
Our extruders melt and form the mixture into durable recycled plastic lumber.
We also use custom in-house molds that reduce the use of hardware and make our furniture structurally superior. All of our frames are constructed with HDPE lumber components."


How to choose a gaming monitor
There are several things to consider when you are buying a gaming monitor. You want to get best possible graphics out of your gaming hardware.
The resolution defines the amount of pixels the screen has. Budget gaming monitors have a 1920 x 1080 resolution, which is also called 1080p or Full HD. This means that the screen consists of a matrix with 1920 pixels horizontally and 1080 pixels vertically. Generally, larger resolutions mean that games, movies and photos look nicer on the screen.
Higher end 1440p gaming montors are the next step up. They they have a 2560 x 1440 resolution. Besides the higher resolution they are also wider than 1080p monitors.
Finally, there are UHD or 4k monitors with a 3840 x 2160 resolution. They are not yet that popular for gaming because most current GPUs can't really drive this resolution for many games. However, if you want a 4k screen for general use / graphic design / programming and you don't have sufficient GPU for 4k gaming you can also downscale the resolution in games.
Monitor size is a matter of personal preference and price, but generally, larger screens are preferred for gaming in order to get a more immersive gaming experience. However, larger screens often come with a higher resolution as well, which requires a more powerful gaming PC. Panel size measures the diagonal size of the screen in inches. Budget gaming monitors usually start at 24". Larger 27" monitors are available at higher price points.
Pixel response time
Pixel response time describes how long it takes a pixel to switch color. It is measured in milliseconds (ms). A lower response time is better because it allows the monitor to display fast movements without artifacts such as ghosting. Monitors with a 1ms or 2ms are considered very fast. Good IPS screens usually have 4ms, which is also fine for gaming.
On of the most important factors for gaming is the refresh rate. It is measured in Hertz (Hz) and describes how many times per second the screen is refreshed. Some budget monitors have 60Hz, which means that even if your gaming PC can output 100 frames per second (FPS) the monitor can only display 60 FPS. Gaming monitors with 120Hz or higher are ideal, because they result in a smoother gameplay. In addition to budget monitors also higher end 4k monitors sometimes only have 60Hz. These are more suitable for graphic design. Serious gamers normally prefer a higher update frequency.
Which GPU do you need?
If you get a higher end gaming monitor you will also need to a strong gaming PC to take advantage of the higher resolutions and refresh rates. If you want to game in 1440p, generally at least a GTX 1070 is recommended. 4k gaming is even more demanding, a GTX 1080 Ti is often considered the minimum.
If you have a lower end GPU in your gaming PC a regular 1080p monitor may be preferred, unless you plan on upgrading your PC soon.
Contrast ratio is the range between the darkest black and the brightest white color the display can show. Higher contrast ratios generally give a better picture quality. The problem is that this number is difficult to compare between manufacturers, so you should take it with a grain of salt.
The Viewing angle describes the maximum angle at which you can view the display clearly. Lower end displays look dimmer when you look at them from an angle. Higher end screens are clearly readable from the side. For gaming this number is not that important, since you are mostly looking right at the screen. However, for large gaming monitors it can still be an issue if you sit close to the monitor. Today's monitors usually have sufficient viewing angles though.
There are different types of display technologies. Twisted Nematic (TN) screens are popular among gamers because they have high refresh rates and low pixel response times.
Vertical Alignment (VA) panels offer high contrast ratios and a good color reproduction, but they are less popular among games because they sometimes produce ghosting effects. There is also an improved Multi-domain Vertical Alignment (MVA) technology.
In-Plane Switching (IPS) screens generally have the best colors and viewing angles, which make them popular among graphic designers, but they often don't have the same refresh rates and pixel response times. The higher end IPS panels are fast enough for most gamers though.
A DisplayPort is ideal for higher end gaming monitors in order to take advantage of the higher resolutions and refresh rates. A DVI-D would work as well. HDMI and standard DVI are not ideal for 144Hz and higher refresh rates.
Higher end gaming monitors have adaptive synchronization technologies to reduce artifacts such as screen tearing during gaming. Unfortunately, these technologies are manufacturer specific, so you need to match your monitor to your graphic card.
Nvidia offers G-Sync and AMD has FreeSync to control the refresh rate of the display for a smoother gaming experience. If you are interested in this, make sure that both your monitor and your GPU support the same technology.
You can check out these gaming monitors if you want some monitor suggestions based on the above information. Alternatively, if you will also use the monitor for some graphic design you may find our Interactive Monitor Buying Guide more useful, because it also takes color accuracy into account.

The American Bar Association strongly agrees that meaningful access to justice is threatened under the latest round of cuts to Oregon’s judiciary (“In Oregon, justice delayed,” May 17).
State court staff has been reduced 15 percent since 2009, and state courts are closed nine days during Oregon’s two-year budget cycle, including this past Friday, May 25. These layoffs and closures will mean longer lines, shorter hours and delayed justice at every level in the state court system.
We live in a time where our courts have the same budget priority as parks, roads and libraries. All are worthy of our investment and our attention. But our courts are society’s emergency room for administering justice—where people go to fight home foreclosures, to receive protection from an abusive partner, to seek custody of a child or to resolve a business dispute.
No one would accept the closing one day a week of the local firehouse or police station. Our courts are no different. We urge lawmakers to adequately fund Oregon’s justice system so that every citizen has his day in court.

“Our success in phasing out ozone-eating chemicals shows us what can and must be done—as a matter of urgency—to transition away from fossil fuels, reduce greenhouse gases, and so limit temperature increase,” said one expert.
An assessment released Monday by leading science agencies highlights the effectiveness of an international treaty intended to protect the stratospheric ozone layer as well as the power of taking action now to limit global heating driven by human activity.
The Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer was signed in 1987 and entered into force in 1989. The landmark treaty regulates nearly 100 synthetic chemicals known as ozone-depleting substances (ODSs)—including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) used in air conditioners and refrigerators.
The new analysis of the Montreal Protocol was conducted by experts from the European Commission, United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), and World Meteorological Organization (WMO) as well as the United States’ National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
The assessment’s executive summary states that “actions taken under the Montreal Protocol continue to contribute to ozone recovery” and total column ozone (TCO) “is expected to return to 1980 values around 2066 in the Antarctic, around 2045 in the Arctic, and around 2040 for the near-global average.”
The publication also points out how efforts to protect and restore the ozone layer contribute to the 2015 Paris climate agreement’s goal of keeping global heating this century “well below” 2°C, relative to preindustrial levels, with an ultimate target of 1.5°C.
“Compliance with the 2016 Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, which requires phasedown of production and consumption of some hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), is estimated to avoid 0.3-0.5°C of warming by 2100,” the document notes.
“New studies support previous assessments in that the decline in ODS emissions due to compliance with the Montreal Protocol avoids global warming of approximately 0.5-1°C by mid-century compared to an extreme scenario with an uncontrolled increase in ODSs of 3-3.5% per year,” the executive summary adds.
Meg Seki, executive secretary of the UNEP’s Ozone Secretariat, said in a statement: “That ozone recovery is on track according to the latest quadrennial report is fantastic news. The impact the Montreal Protocol has had on climate change mitigation cannot be overstressed.”
“Over the last 35 years, the protocol has become a true champion for the environment,” Seki continued. “The assessments and reviews undertaken by the scientific assessment panel remain a vital component of the work of the protocol that helps inform policy- and decision-makers.”
Good news from #AMS2023: The ozone layer is on track to recover within four decades.

Executive summary ➡ https://t.co/yO6o2dVOd3
— World Meteorological Organization (@WMO) January 9, 2023
This is the panel’s first assessment to examine a proposed geoengineering method to reduce global heating known as stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI), which would involve planes releasing sulfur to reflect solar radiation.
The analysis warns that “an unintended consequence of SAI is that it could also affect stratospheric temperatures, circulation, and ozone production and destruction rates and transport.”
NOAA’s David Fahey, a lead author of the assessment, told The Guardian that “these sort of climate interventions are touchy subjects because they are a tangled ball of ethics and governance, rather than just science… There would indeed, though, be consequences for ozone if you put enough sulfur into the atmosphere. It would be unavoidable.”
Released in the wake of COP27—a November U.N. summit that critics called “another terrible failure” because Paris agreement parties failed to collectively call for an end to all planet-heating fossil fuels—the new assessment prompted experts to urge the world to learn from the Montreal Protocol and apply those lessons tackling the climate emergency.
Fahey said that the global response to CFCs means that the Montreal Protocol should be seen as “the most successful environmental treaty in history and offers encouragement that countries of the world can come together and decide an outcome and act on it.”
According to The Guardian:
Fahey said that even with swift global action on CFCs, the chemicals still linger in the atmosphere for about a century. “It’s a bit like waiting for paint to dry, you just have to wait for nature to do its thing and flush out these chemicals,” he said.
The challenge when it comes to greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide is even greater, he said, as they stay in the atmosphere far longer and, unlike CFCs which were produced by just a handful of companies, the emissions coming from fossil fuels are far more widespread and embedded in almost every activity in societies.
“CO2 is another order of magnitude when it comes to its longevity, which is sobering,” he said. “Getting every person on the planet to stop burning fossil fuels is a vastly different challenge.”
Still, WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas declared that “ozone action sets a precedent for climate action.”
“Our success in phasing out ozone-eating chemicals,” he said, “shows us what can and must be done—as a matter of urgency—to transition away from fossil fuels, reduce greenhouse gases, and so limit temperature increase.”

MOSCOW, November 6 (Itar-Tass) —— About 40 military vehicles, among them T-37 and T-60 tanks designed in 1937 and 1939, will take part in the historical parade on Moscow’s Red Square on November 7.
Servicemen riding horse-drawn machinegun platforms will be wearing uniforms of the 1940s, and some units will be wearing winter camouflage uniforms and weaponry of the same years.
In all, the parade will have about 5,500 participants, and its viewers will include WW2 veterans who marched to the frontline from the Red Square parade of November 7, 1941. Only 67 participants of that parade live in Moscow now.
It took two months to prepare the historical parade. Two rehearsals were held on Khodynskoye Field, and the dress rehearsal took place on Red Square on November 3.
The parade will start at 10:00 a.m. The event originated 14 years ago. WW2 veterans have been special guests for the past six years.
The parade of November 7, 1941, marked the 24th anniversary of the Russian Revolution of 1917. At the time the Nazi were only 70-100 kilometers away from Moscow. Servicemen of the Moscow military district, military school cadets and some other units of the Red Army took part in the parade and marched right to the frontline.

ABOUT: Barbara Morrison was born in Ypsilanti, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit, she recorded her first radio appearance on the radio in Detroit at the age of 10. In the 70s, Morrison moved to Los Angeles and became a ‘musical precious stone’ to Southern California residences. In 2009, she founded the Barbara Morrison Performing Arts Center in the Leimert Park area of Los Angeles. Music fans could listen to live Jazz, Blues, and Soul music from musicians from around the world as they sipped on wine and ate snacks while tapping their feet to the beat of the music. Morrison was known to give children free music and voice lessons as well as an opportunity to perform on her stage.
In 2011, Morrison founded the California Jazz & Blues Museum, also in Leimert Park, which was filled with photos of the rich history of legendary Jazz and Blues musicians and vocalists. Morrison also serves as an Associate Professor of Jazz Studies in the Global/Ethnomusicology Department at UCLA in Westwood, CA.

Fiorina attacks Clinton on women’s rights
Carly Fiorina tore into Hillary Clinton during her speech Thursday at the Conservative Political Action Conference outside Washington, D.C., lambasting the former secretary of state over recent reports that the Clinton Foundation accepted millions of dollars from foreign governments during her tenure at Foggy Bottom.
“Mrs. Clinton, name an accomplishment,” she said of Clinton’s time in the Obama administration. “And in the meantime, please explain why we should accept that the millions and millions of dollars that have flowed into the Clinton Global Initiative from foreign governments doesn’t represent a conflict of interest.”
The former Hewlett-Packard executive said that Clinton doesn’t walk the talk — or the tweets — when it comes to women’s rights, a subject that is expected to be a key plank of Clinton’s candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination.
“She tweets about women’s rights in this country and takes money from governments that deny women the most basic human rights,” Fiorina said. “She tweets about equal pay for women but won’t answer basic questions about her own offices’ pay standards — and neither will our president. Hillary likes hashtags. But she doesn’t know what leadership means.”
The U.S. needs leaders, not managers, she said, slamming the Obama administration’s strategy on the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant and Clinton’s testimony on the 2012 attack on a diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya.
“When the Egyptians bombed targets in Libya in response to the beheading of 21 Christians, this administration stood silently by and would neither ‘condemn nor condone’ Egypt’s forceful response,” she said. “This is not leadership. Nor is it leadership when Secretary Clinton asks: ‘What difference does it make?’ when our embassy is deliberately attacked by terrorists and four Americans are murdered. It makes all the difference in the world and the required response has never come.”
When asked about what kind of candidate Republicans need to nominate in 2016, Fiorina hinted that she might have an advantage as a woman going up against Clinton.
“If Hillary Clinton had to face me on a debate stage, at the very least she would have to have a hitch in her swing,” she said, to cheers.
Clinton wasn’t the only Democrat she slammed.
Fiorina, who spoke between New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, also criticized Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, whom she called “dead wrong” on how to end crony capitalism.
“You see, whether it is Dodd-Frank, Obamacare or net neutrality, all this government complexity means the big get bigger, the small disappear, and the powerless are trapped,” she said .

My husband’s Italian family is highly endogamic, meaning that branches of his family intermarried a lot. For example, he has three grandfathers in 5 generations who married women from the Giulianotti family. By the way, my Tennessee family is just as endogamic as his. Almost the only way to really keep a family like that straight is to try to link everyone together, and since his family was primarily from two remote villages up in the Italian mountains, I’ve been creating my own little “village family tree” using all of the records I can get my hands on. For one of the towns, the records I most easily have access to are only a single census, and then death records for about two centuries. Because of that, I was building families first with only their dead children, and then after I had all of the death records placed in the tree, I went to the census and filled in some gaps (the birth records will someday fill in more gaps). It was tough. I was able to piece together some family trees based on death records that might have three generations listed: “Pietro son of Giovanni son of Bartolomeo and Angela Giulianotti, and Maria daughter of Giuseppe and Orsola Zanrè, died on 4 Sep 1703 at the age of 4 months”. Many of the families I was piecing together had 6 to 8 children who died in infancy. Often I would find a death record of a child, next to the death record of his mother. Then came the “asian flu” and dozens of people died within days of each other. What struck me the most, is that the death records were generally children under 5, women in childbirth, and the elderly being struck by epidemic. There were so few records of men in their 20s-50s dying.
I think it is important to look back at these family hardships our ancestors endured. Partly to remember them, and partly to appreciate where we are today. As a woman, especially, I try to honor the lives that the women who came before me were blessed with and sometimes cursed with. We should never take for granted the advancements in medicine and health that we have today. Especially women’s health.
Off my soapbox!

Making Cancer History – Disease and Discovery at the University of Texas M.D Anderson Cancer Center
Breast cancer is the most common cancer and leading cause of cancer deaths among women worldwide. Although the causes and natural history of breast cancer remain unclear, epidemiological research has uncovered genetic, biological, environmental and lifestyle risk factors for the disease. Over the past several decades, the risk of breast cancer in developed countries has increased by one to two percent annually. While data for developing countries are limited, cancer registries suggest that age-standardized incidence rates are rising even more rapidly in low-incidence regions such as Africa and Asia. As of 2012, there are 7 centers around Nepal that provide treatment for cancer, and Manipal College of Medical Sciences, Pokhara, is the only one in the western region. The centre has both a Linear Accelerator and a Telecobalt external radiotherapy unit. Since its inception in 2000, the center has treated nearly 950 patients with radiotherapy till 2008. The aim of this study was to determine the trends and to estimate the future load of patients with breast cancer requiring radiotherapy at Manipal Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal.
Prostate Cancer is the most common malignancy in elderly men. The median age at diagnosis is 68years and the disease incidence escalates sharply with increasing age. The natural history is still relatively unknown and many aspects of progression are poorly understood .Clinically localized disease varies from lower-grade tumors having a more indolent course to high-grade lesions that progress to metastatic disease with relative rapidity. Prostate cancer is most treatable and curable if caught in the earliest stage of the disease. Staging is an important part of developing the best treatment. Choosing a treatment option involves the patient, his family, and one or more doctors. It needs multidisciplinary oncology doctors of prostate cancer specialists as an urologist, a radiation oncologist, and a medical oncologist. The optimal management of prostate cancer that is clinically confined to the prostate remains controversial. Standard treatment options for localized disease include Radical prostatectomy, Radiation Therapy and watchful waiting management.For metastatic prostate cancer it becomes far harder for complete cure.
Ghanaian women, like many other women from the developing countries, have a low participation rate in breast cancer screening services. As a result, the disease is commonly diagnosed at late stages leading to a poor outcome with high mortality rates. The study showed a high level of knowledge deficit about the disease, which was evident from the poor appreciation of the risk factors and signs of the disease and high level of misconceptions and misinformation. Attitudes towards the disease were those of fear, superstitions, fatalism and stigma, which impact negatively on the outcome of the disease in Ghana. To improve breast cancer care in Ghana, the study makes two broad recommendations which include vigorous breast awareness and educational programmes, to teach and encourage Ghanaian women to adopt breast self-examination practices and to encourage health professionals to use every opportunity to examine their female patients as part of the overall clinical assessments. The second recommendation is the provision adequate facilities for diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer to patients at an affordable cost.
New gene targets for disease susceptibility and therapeutic intervention only provide a starting point in the long and difficult process of incidence of a particular disease and drug discovery. The incorporation of genetic information into the routine prescribing of drugs may become standard to avoid serious toxicity with narrow therapeutic index drugs, and to maximize the likelihood of a positive response in the individual patient. However, genomics and genetic variations in particular amongst individuals will have an important impact in understanding of the molecular nature of diseases and of the responses, both desirable and adverse to drugs. Modern genetics will bring about significant improvements in the provision and practice of healthcare by redefining disease and targeting treatment. It will also lead to the discovery of novel targets and effective treatments and the provision of more effective preventative healthcare. Pharmacogenomics aims to complement the current ‘one-medicine fits-all’ scenario with drugs that are based on a deeper understanding of gene variations and the effect of such variations on drug responses.
Testicular cancer is a deadly disease that affects a growing number of men worldwide each year. The disease strikes when men are young and in their most productive years. Testicular Cancer is the most common cause of cancer among men aged 15 to 35 years and it has been reported to be on the increase. Testicular Cancer is highly treatable and often curable once diagnosed early therefore all men should be aware of its symptoms. The main objective of the study was to determine the knowledge about testicular cancer, perceived risk for testicular cancer and testicular cancer preventive practices of University male students aged 18 years and above in Uganda. The study employed a descriptive cross sectional design. The study was conducted among Makerere University male students aged 18 to 32 years residing in Lumumba Hall, University Hall and Nkrumah Halls of residence. Systematic random sampling was used to obtain the 323 participants. Self-administered questionnaires were used to collect quantitative data over a period of two months. Data was analyzed using SPSS 15.0 software package.
Vaeth Frontiers Of Radiation Therapy And Oncology: Radiation Therapy And The Cancer Center
Research is a high concept; it brings to test our patience, vigor and dedication. Every result arrived at a beginning for higher achievements. Our project in the same interest is just a drop in the ocean. At the same time Cancer biomarker?based diagnostics have applications for establishing disease predisposition, early detection, cancer staging, therapy selection, identifying whether or not a cancer is metastatic, therapy monitoring, assessing prognosis, and advances in the adjuvant setting. New laboratory methods, improvements in the tools available to scientists, and an overriding need to improve cancer therapies are driving current efforts to map cancer-related changes in the body. These changes encompass predisposition or risk factors associated with cancer and subsequent developments of the disease. The need to identify and understand cancer biomarkers is being driven by a number of factors. These include requirements to improve screening and early detection, to provide better guidance on therapy, and to avoid therapy resistance attributes, for understanding cancer staging, response to treatment, and prognosis.
Here we have developed a structure based analysis to address two problems of protein understanding that would give us an insight about various disease correlation, firstly is there any relation between the common receptor proteins that play a major role in Diabetes, Alzheimer, Cancer and Cardiovascular disease? And secondly are there any point mutations in the conserved regions of these receptor proteins which might bring this kind of correlation between the diseases?
"Breast cancer may very well be history's oldest malaise, known as well to the ancients as it is to us. The women who have endured it share a unique sisterhood. Queen Atossa and Dr. Jerri Nielsen separated by era and geography, by culture, religion, politics, economics, and world view could hardly have been more different. Born 2,500 years apart, they stand as opposite bookends on the shelf of human history. One was the most powerful woman in the ancient world, the daughter of an emperor, the mother of a god; the other is a twenty first century physician with a streak of adventure coursing through her veins. From the imperial throne in ancient Babylon, Atossa could not have imagined the modern world, and only in the driest pages of classical literature could Antarctica-based Jerri Nielsen even have begun to fathom the Near East five centuries before the birth of Christ. For all their differences, however, they shared a common fear that transcends time and space." from Bathsheba's Breast In 1967, an Italian surgeon touring Amsterdam's Rijks museum stopped in front of Rembrandt's Bathsheba at Her Bath, on loan from the Louvre, and noticed an asymmetry to Bathsheba's left breast; it seemed distended, swollen near the armpit, discolored, and marked with a distinctive pitting. With a little research, the physician learned that Rembrandt's model, his mistress Hendrickje Stoffels, later died after a long illness, and he conjectured in a celebrated article for an Italian medical journal that the cause of her death was almost certainly breast cancer. A horror known to every culture in every age, breast cancer has been responsible for the deaths of 25 million women throughout history. An Egyptian physician writing 3,500 years ago concluded that there was no treatment for the disease. Later surgeons recommended excising the tumor or, in extreme cases, the entire breast. This was the treatment advocated by the court physician to sixth-century Byzantine empress Theodora, the wife of Justinian, though she chose to die in pain rather than lose her breast. Only in the past few decades has treatment advanced beyond disfiguring surgery. In Bathsheba's Breast, historian James S. Olson who lost his left hand and forearm to cancer while writing this book -- provides an absorbing and often frightening narrative history of breast cancer told through the heroic stories of women who have confronted the disease, from Theodora to Anne of Austria, Louis XIV's mother, who confronted "nun's disease" by perfecting the art of dying well, to Dr. Jerri Nielson, who was dramatically evacuated from the South Pole in 1999 after performing a biopsy on her own breast and self-administering chemotherapy. Olson explores every facet of the disease: medicine's evolving understanding of its pathology and treatment options; its cultural significance; the political and economic logic that has dictated the terms of a war on a "woman's disease"; and the rise of patient activism. Olson concludes that, although it has not yet been conquered, breast cancer is no longer the story of individual women struggling alone against a mysterious and deadly foe.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer(22% of all new cases) as well as the leading cause of cancer deaths(14% of all cancer deaths)in women worldwide.The incidence of breast cancer is increasing at an alarming rate in India cuttting across urban and rural divide.Country as vast as India poses its own share of peculiar problems with lack of awareness about the disease,advanced stage of disease presentation and lack of proper screening and treatment facilities.We present an Indian prespective of the demographics and problems encountered in treatment of breast cancer.
Examining one hundred years in the public campaign against cancer, this path-breaking study of scientific, medical, and epidemiological writings and of cinematic and literary representations of disease, reveals how experts and the lay public saw cancer's demographic shifts - from a stereotypical white female disease to equal opportunity killer -- as a message about women, men, race and the changing color line.
Worldwide, breast cancer is the leading cancer dilemma of the older adult women. Younger women form the minority of breast cancer patients. In Iraqi Kurdistan, we seem to be seeing more patients at younger ages and with more advanced stages of the disease. The aim of this study is to find out the extent of this problem in women ? 40 years. Clinical, pathological and demographic data of breast cancer in Hiwa Cancer Hospital (HCH) in Sulaymaniyah were analyzed. These young-age breast cancer data were then compared to local all-age data from the region, also with Middle Eastern, Western and Asian countries. By end of this retrospective / prospective study of hundred breast cancer young survivors, the authors concluded that breast cancer in this group of patients is about 13% of all breast cancer ladies in HCH. It is more common as compared to developed countries. Majority of patients were diagnosed at advanced stages and their tumors exhibited more aggressive clinico-pathological features. Further studies with large number of patients and case controls are recommended to validate these initial findings and investigate survival / local and distant control in this group of patients.

The book has dealt with theories and concepts of plagiarism, academic dishonesty, forms of plagiarism, causes of plagiarism, consequences and mechanisms for combating plagiarism and academic dishonesty have been proposed. Tapping into the knowledge of plagiarism brings in the vitality required for creativity and innovation.
The current study was conducted to evaluate the oxidative stress status in prostate cancer. To achieve this purpose, 75 prostate cancer patients of ages 63.5± 3.5 years and 33 apparently healthy individuals of ages 61± 3.8 years (control group) were enrolled. The distribution of patients revealed 60% (40) of rural areas, 44% (30) are smokers, 52% (39) having either heart diseases and/or hypertension, and 40% (30) of positive family history for the disease. The levels of MDA, GSH, GPX, and CAT were measured in sera of patients and control group. The statistical analysis exhibited significant elevation for MDA levels and significant decreases for GSH and GPX levels in the group of patients when compared with those of the control group. Patients from rural areas showed significant rise for MDA values when compared with those of urban areas. Variations of oxidative stress markers were found to be essentially related to prostate cancer and independent on smoking or other diseases in the studied patients. MDA levels were demonstrated to increase significantly in patients of positive family history when compared with those of negative family history of prostate cancer.
Cervical cancer is a major public health problem of women in low income countries like Nigeria. Globally 1.4 million women live with the disease and 7 million people may have precancerous changes. Eighty percent of the 493,000 annual new cases and 80-85% of annual deaths from cervical cancer occur in Low Income Countries (LIC) having less than 5% of the global cancer resources. In Nigeria 9,922 cases are diagnosed annually and 8,030 die. These figures will increase by about 25% in 10 years. The incidence rate ranging from 25 to 30 per 100,000 women is 5-6 times higher than the incidence in High Income Countries. Affected women come with advanced disease posing great challenge to the struggling health system. The disease is considered a ‘Sexually Transmitted disease’ with Human Papillomavirus (HPV) as the necessary cause. Nigerian women of all ages have a high HPV prevalence of 26.3% due to many determinants and co-factors like early sexual debut, multiple sex partners, low condom use, high parity, high incidence of other Sexually Transmitted Infections including HIV, poverty and illiteracy.This book will serve as guide for planners of national policy on cervical cancer prevention
Quinazoline derivatives have received a great interest as anti-cancer agents since the discovery of Gefitinib. From about 1995 to 2006, the anticancer quinazoline panorama has been dominated by the 4-anilinoquinazolines as tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Interests in quinazolines as anticancer agents have been further increased after the discovery of thymidylate synthase inhibitors Raltitrexed and Thymitaq. The aim of this book is to provide a brief overview of synthesis and pharmacology of quinazoline based anti-cancer agents. The first chapter provides a brief review of conventional and targeted anti-cancer agents and also elaborates on the special place held by quinazoline derivatives in the current anti-cancer chemotherapy. The second chapter is aimed at providing a review of reported synthetic strategies and pharmacological properties of clinically approved quinazoline kinase inhibitors. The third chapter covers the reported synthetic strategies and information on pharmacology of various quinazoline kinase inhibitors which are currently under clinical trials. The fourth chapter covers the literature on anti-cancer activity of quinazoline derivatives reported in the past decade.

How can we fix all that has gone wrong in our nation’s capital? Mandate military service for all Americans, men and women alike, when they turn 18. At least that’s the provocative solution Washington Post
columnist Dana Milbank proposed this weekend:
There is no better explanation for what has gone wrong in Washington in recent years than the tabulation done every two years of how many members of Congress served in the military. Continue Reading...

HARRISBURG, Pa. — The State Department of Education calls the teacher shortage in Pennsylvania one of the issues it is most concerned about this school year.
“It’s a challenge right now. Substitute teachers is a big enough challenge to itself,” said Matt Edgell, Region Advocacy Coordinator for PSEA. “Then you throw on top of that the fact that it’s hard to get classroom teachers.”
Both Edgell and Carlynton Superintendent Dr. John Kreider agree the shortage didn’t happen overnight.
“Colleges and universities are not graduating individuals with degrees in education to help serve in the classroom as regular teachers as well,” said Dr. Kreider.
In his school district, they’re looking for a French teacher. Beyond that, they really need substitute teachers.
“It does create an issue for daily operations of a school when we don’t have enough substitutes in house,” Dr. Kreider said.
Because then Carlynton teachers have to cover the absent teacher’s classroom, taking away their prep time or extra time with students.
Right now they have five or six daily subs, but they’d like to have 10. So this year, they upped the pay for subs.
Carlynton went from $100 to $135 a day for substitute teacher pay. Trinity School District in Washington County is looking to increase to $125 a day.
“We’re all pulling from the same number of candidates across Allegheny County, so naturally individuals are going to look for where the finances line up for them and where they live in close proximity to school districts,” said Dr. Kreider.
He says having qualified subs in the classroom helps out two-fold: students get someone to instruct them that day and the district gets a glance at a possible full-time teaching candidate.
Channel 11 asked the Pennsylvania Department of Education what they’re doing to get more people interested in a career in teaching, a spokeswoman told us:
“One initiative we hope to expand through additional federal funds is our Office of Higher Education’s teacher and principal residency program. Through a collaborative process between K-12 schools and higher education institutions, promising students and individuals are recruited and supported through a certification program, inclusive of a one-year residency component.”
“They’re doing the best they can to fill positions,” said Edgell. “They’re being much more aggressive in their recruiting. They’re of course asking for our help.”
When we asked the State Department of Education if they anticipate the teaching shortage to get better or worse, spokeswoman Kendall Alexander said:
“In the past two years, we have seen an increase in the number of college students entering educator preparation programs, which is very promising. However, the most recent data is from 2019-2020, which doesn’t allow us to assess the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on potential new entrants into the teaching profession. Once the 2020-21 data is available, PDE will be in a better position to fully assess the teacher pipeline issues.”

Hitting all the right shots!
Dolly Parton proved once again why she’s a living legend. On Tuesday, March 2, the Grammy winner took to social media to share that’s she officially received her first dose of Moderna, which is the coronavirus vaccine she helped fund last year.
She cheekily wrote on Instagram, “Dolly gets a dose of her own medicine.”
“I’m finally gonna get my vaccine. I’m so excited,” the country music icon said in an Instagram video. “I’m old enough to get it, I’m smart enough to get it, so I’m very happy.”
In fact, the award-winning singer was so jazzed about getting vaccinated that she remade her classic tune “Jolene” in order to “fit the occasion.”
“Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine / I’m begging of you please don’t hesitate,” she crooned in her video. “Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine / because once you’re dead / then that’s a bit too late.”
“I know I’m trying to be funny now,” she added, “but I’m dead serious about the vaccine.”

From a very young age I have had a great love for drawing and painting, I have always been attracted to art in its numerous expressions. Currently, I feel very fortunate to be able to continue exploring with different tools, digital technology and other traditional techniques. I intend to keep immersing myself in this wonderful adventure.
In these paintings, I mixed handmade drawings with digital color and composition.
Drawing in black fibers is one of my favorite techniques. I really enjoy how movements, curves and shadows are generated depending on the thickness and direction of the strokes. Also, given the repetition and movements of the strokes, it is a very relaxing activity for me where I can connect with myself and completely isolate myself from environmental stressors.

- Who Should Avoid Consuming These Pills?
The peace of mind that you receive from not having an unwanted or unplanned pregnancy is unparalleled. Out of the numerous forms of contraception methods, pills are the most popular. This is because they are the most accessible, the least invasive, and the easiest way to use. Emergency contraception pills are growing in demand around the world; which is why it is essential to understand what these pills are and what, if any, are the side effects of taking these pills.
What are Emergency Contraceptive Pills?
The emergency contraceptive pill is a type of oral medication taken to avoid unwanted pregnancies that should be taken post-coital. These pills are commonly referred to as the day-after pills or morning-after pills. Women often use these pills after a night of unprotected sex. These pills are growing in popularity around the world as a form of emergency contraception; this means these pills should not be used regularly. It is recommended that you use other methods of contraception like condoms and birth control pills as a primary method of pregnancy prevention. The postcoital emergency contraception should only work as a secondary form of contraception on an SOS basis.
Types of Emergency Contraceptive Pills
When it comes to emergency contraceptive pills, you get numerous options. Most of these options include something known as a copper intrauterine device more commonly known as an IUD. Here are some popular types of the morning after pill.
- Combination Pills: These type of pills thicken the cervical mucus making it difficult for the sperm to move. At the same time, they help in thinning of the uterus lining which makes it hard for the eggs to attach. These pills contain both estrogen and progestin.
- Mini-Pills: These pills work in the same way as combination pills. It suppresses ovulation by preventing the sperm from reaching the egg and. The main difference is that they do not contain estrogen and is recommended for those who are unable to take the same.
Plan-B and Next Choice are pills that are made of levonorgestrel, if the pharmacy doesn’t recognise the brand then ask them for levonorgestrel contraceptive pills. Ella is a ulipristal acetate pill, this is much stronger, and doctors recommend this pill be taken with caution. All these pills work as hormonal blockers and hormonal modifiers that can be used post-coital to prevent pregnancies; this should not be confused with abortion pills that are taken to terminate a pregnancy.
Common Side Effects of Emergency Contraceptive Pills
As with any medication, these pills come with some side effects, here are some of these:
1. Irregular Periods
A common side effect of emergency contraceptive pills on periods is the length of the period itself; some women experience an earlier menstrual cycle, others experience one that could be at most a week late. If it is later than a week, you should consult a doctor and have a pregnancy test done.
2. Excessive Bleeding
These pills are also on rare occasions known to cause excessive bleeding once taken; this should only last a couple of days. If the bleeding lasts longer than two days, consult a doctor immediately, this could be a sign of something more serious.
3. Dizziness and Vomiting
A pill that contains levonorgestrel can cause some dizziness and vomiting while the medicine is taking effect, the same side-effects are known to occur with combination contraceptive pills, this symptom should wear off within the first three days.
One of the most common side-effects of the morning after pill is fatigue, this should only affect you for a day or two, if the fatigue is exceptionally severe and you find it hard to perform any movement, please consult a doctor.
Do Emergency Contraceptive Pills Have Any Side Effects on Future Pregnancy?
Under normal circumstances, doctors assume that contraceptive pills do not cause any harm to future pregnancies, there is a small risk of any contraceptive pill obstructing your chances of being pregnant again, it is, however, recommended that you consult a doctor for a thorough prognosis of how these pills could affect your body as every person’s anatomy is different and so is the body’s reaction to medication.
In the case of your body rejecting or reacting badly to the pill, it could hamper a future pregnancy, this, however, is extremely rare. It is important to recognise that using emergency contraceptives also causes a hormonal imbalance, this could lead to you taking more time to get pregnant, but any scientific study or body do not lower the chances.
Are There Any Long-Term Side Effects of Taking Emergency Contraceptive Pills?
Emergency contraceptives can cause long-lasting side-effects if taken too frequently or if your body does not agree with the type of medication, some of these long-term side effects are:
- Weight gain is the most common long-term side effect of these hormonal contraceptive pills.
- These pills could destabilise your body in infrequent situations causing respiratory disorders.
- In sporadic cases, these hormonal imbalances caused by emergency contraceptive pills could lead to gallbladder diseases.
- A common side-effect is an imbalance in blood pressure, most notably high blood pressure.
- These pills can be both a direct and indirect source of clinical depression.
- Some women, those in the extreme minority, experience ovarian cysts.
To better understand what the long-term side effects of these pills are and what are the chances you are affected by these side effects; please consult your medical care supervisor. It is commonly accepted by doctors that the side-effects faced by women on contraceptives are on rare occasions and these pills are usually very safe.
How Long Does the Side-Effects Last?
The duration of the side-effect on your body can depend heavily on your body and immune system as well as the kind of side-effect you face. It is a good idea to seek the counsel of a trusted doctor for a more case-specific prognosis and a better understanding of what to expect regarding the side-effects you face.
Who Should Avoid Consuming These Pills?
It is very sternly recommended that women who are pregnant do not attempt using these pills, it could harm the pregnancy. It is also advised that women with clotting disorders, PCOS, extremely high blood pressure and depression avoid these pills as much as possible. For more accurate information, please have your doctor perform the required tests and give you his professional opinion.
It is highly recommended that you consult a medical professional before taking emergency contraceptive pills, do not self-medicate on these pills or use them frequently without the guidance of a doctor, they could have life-altering consequences. Contraception is essential, it is, however, always recommended that you use prevention techniques for pregnancy rather than relying solely on emergency contraceptive methods. Remember, healthy sex life is not just moderated pleasure, it also consists of safe and consensual sexual practices.

TULSA - A woman accused of killing her husband by pushing him out of a high-rise apartment window could again land herself in jail Friday.
Prosecutors are asking a judge to revoke bail for 20-year-old Amber Hilberling after she failed at least two drug tests.
Hilberling has already had her bond revoked once after she was suspected of having tampered with her GPS ankle monitor. A judge reinstated her original bond of $250,000 Dec. 13 with the declaration that if HIlberling further violated the conditions of her release, she risks being held without bond until the completion of her trial.
The conditions of her release require she remain at home at all times, monitored with a GPS ankle monitor, with exception of doctors appointments and those of her minor child. She may also visit her attorney's office, appear in court, church and her place of employment.
Hilberling must also undergo random drug and alcohol testing.
Hilberling is awaiting trial after her husband, Joshua Hilberling, died in June 2011 when he fell from a window at the couple's 25th-floor apartment.
She faces charges of manslaughter and second-degree murder.

Hong Kong stocks fell, halting a three-day advance after China signalled it would strengthen regulations to steady the economy and amid a report insurance technology platforms are being targeted. Chinese Tesla rival Li Auto failed to garner a premium on its first day of trading.
The Hang Seng Index fell 0.5 per cent to 26,517.82 at the close of Thursday trading. The Shanghai Composite fell 0.2 per cent, while the CSI 300 of the biggest stocks in Shanghai and Shenzhen declined 0.8 per cent.
The State Council, China’s cabinet, said it would work on legislation including national security, technological innovation and antitrust to strengthen the government, according to a statement on Wednesday. The banking and insurance regulators separately ordered companies and local agencies to curb improper marketing and pricing practices, Bloomberg and the Securities Journal reported.
Ping An Insurance fell 2.6 per cent to HK$68, while ZhongAn Online P&C Insurance slumped 11.5 per cent to HK$37.80. Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing fell 3.5 per cent to HK$499.20 as the bourse operator’s first-half profits trailed estimates and amid concerns China’s clampdown will slow stock listing applications and related fees.
“In China, the evidence is now clear that we are seeing a policy shift and not a spasm of regulation,” Rabobank analyst Michael Every said in a report. “The key question for markets is if this is positive or negative for growth” at a time when the economy is grappling with a resurgence in Covid-19 infections, he added.
China has tightened measures in hospitals to prevent infections within health facilities as the nation faces its most serious outbreak since last year’s peak. Six mainland provinces reported a total of 90 new local infections on Wednesday, according to government data.
Recovery momentum has faded in China as the Delta variant fuelled downside risks to growth in the second half of the year, Union Bancaire Privée said in a report on Thursday. Rising regulatory risks are weighing on medium-term growth prospects, especially in segments targeted by national reform or security efforts, the Swiss private bank said.
Electric-vehicle maker Li Auto fell 0.8 per cent to HK$117 on its debut versus its offering price of HK$118. The shares were indicated at HK$115.90 in grey-market trading on Wednesday, according to prices from Bright Smart Securities and Phillip Securities. The carmaker raised HK$11.6 billion (US$1.49 billion) from the sale of 100 million shares to investors.
Markets in Asia-Pacific were mixed. Japan’s Nikkei 225 slipped 0.2 per cent, while Korea’s Kospi fell 0.4 per cent. Australia’s ASX 200 edged up 0.1 per cent.
