YOUR SAFETY IS OUR MAIN CONCERN
We are taking precautions to keep everyone safe and protected from possible exposure to COVID-19 during appointments, surgeries, and procedures at our hospitals and clinics. We are confident we can provide safe, essential care. The well-being of our patients, visitors, and staff remains our top priority.
WEAR A FACE MASK
It is mandatory to wear a face mask over your nose and mouth to maximize everybody’s safety.
The CDC recommends that you wear a cloth face mask when you're around people who don't live with you and in public settings when social distancing is difficult.
WASH YOUR HANDS
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
USE HAND SANITIZER
If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
Hand sanitizer destroys the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.
To practice social or physical distancing, stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arms’ length) from other people who are not from your household in both indoor and outdoor spaces.
COVID-19 spreads mainly among people who are in close contact (within about 6 feet) for a prolonged period
DO NOT DELAY YOUR NEEDED CARE
It is important to not delay care like well checks and other preventive appointments, and you should continue to take your medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Delaying care can lead to complications and advanced stages of the disease.
EVERYONE IS SCREENED
Every person is screened for symptoms before entering our facilities. These screenings may take place at the time of scheduling, on pre-visit calls, and when you arrive at our clinics. Onsite screenings require all patients, visitors, and team members to sanitize their hands, answer questions about potential symptoms, do temperature checks, and wearing a mask. This process will help protect everyone from the spread of infection.
We perform enhanced cleaning between every patient. We clean exam rooms and equipment with CDC-approved equipments. We are also performing additional cleanings daily.
Our visitor restrictions remain in place to limit the number of people in our facilities. Due to COVID-19, only minor patients, patients with limited mobility, or those with extenuating circumstances may have guests at clinic appointments. Guests are limited to one per patient. You may be expected to wait in your vehicle as there is more limited seating in the waiting area in order to maintain safe social distancing.
We have installed additional hand sanitizing stations and signage to encourage hand hygiene for all staff, patients, and visitors.
FACE MASKS ARE MANDATORY
All providers, staff, patients, and visitors must wear face masks at all times when in our clinics. This requirement protects everyone by helping to stop the spread of the virus. Please note that refusing to wear a mask is considered disruptive behavior. If you do not have a face mask, one will be provided for you. Please learn more about how wearing face masks helps to protect our community.
TELEMEDICINE IS AVAILABLE
Telemedicine is available for your comfort and safety.
Your appointment may be rescheduled as a phone or a video visit. These virtual appointments have proven to be an effective way for our providers to address many patients’ health needs.
There is a HIPAA-compliant link that we can examine you through a secure video conference.
You can arrange this through our appointment desk.

Metallica don’t stay down for long! After recently being forced to cancel shows in Denmark over James Hetfield’s poor health, Metallica are making a return to the stage at this year’s Grammys.
The band are set to perform with Lady Gaga who recently gave a stellar performance at the Superbowl last Sunday.
The Grammys have a long tradition of pairing contrasting musical acts together and this announcement is no different. While it is unknown if Metallica are “little monsters” Lady Gaga has been proud and loud about her love for Metal music over the years. In 2015, she even said she’d rather be the next Maiden than the next Madonna. There’s no doubt that this will be one of the more exciting performances of the night.
Metallica have also been teasing fans about the performance, promising that they plan to deliver something unique and special at this year’s performance.
Other musical pairings promised are Alicia Keys with country singer Maren Morris, while the Weeknd will reunite with Starboy collaborators Daft Punk.
Metallica’s “Hardwired” is nominated for Best Rock Song this year. The band is competing with David Bowie, Radiohead, Twenty One Pilots and Highly Suspect. Lady Gaga is not nominated this year as her album Joanne was released past the 2016 deadline, but has announced that she is embarking on an arena tour for the album.
The scheduled performance is giving Rock fans something to look forward to at the Grammys, as many were disappointed when the Grammys mistakenly announced Dave Grohl was to perform, only to promptly apologise for the mix up.
The Grammy Awards will be held in the Staples Centre in Los Angeles, USA on Sunday, February 12.

Little by Edward Carey is the story of Madame Tussaud, a darkish and considerably gory story of the French Revolution.
Marie, often known as Little, is orphaned by the age of seven, after which is apprenticed by Dr. Curtius, a person who has lived in solitude most of his life in Switzerland. He should escape his money owed, so he and Marie escape to Paris, the place they plan to make a dwelling making wax castings of human heads. In Paris, Marie and her boss hook up with a widow and her son and transfer to a former monkey home and open a museum of kinds, the place wax heads and even human wax figures are displayed.
However the widow doesn’t like Marie, so when alternative presents itself, Little escapes to Versailles. The King’s sister Elisabeth visits the previous monkey home and takes a liking to Marie. So she goes to the palace and lives in a closet, and collectively they make wax castings of the poor and their afflictions, to be positioned in church buildings to be prayed over.
This doesn’t final perpetually, nonetheless. Little, by now in her late twenties, is shipped again to her grasp and surrogate household because the French Revolution looms. After she loses royal safety, the members of the family are on their very own. And Paris will not be a fairly place.
Little is full of passages like this: thought-provoking and setting a scene heavy with irony. Solely on the finish of the e book is there a proof of how she turns into Madame Tussaud, who strikes to London and finally establishes her well-known museum.
The writer at one time labored at Madame Tussaud’s in London, the place he realized of her uncommon story.
The e book can be printed October 23, 2018. Due to Edelweiss for an advance reader’s copy.

About the Event
For an extraordinary evening of piano classics, visit the impressive Eglise Saint‐Ephrem in Paris to hear the masterpieces of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Frederic Chopin and Robert Schumann.
- Franz Xaver Mozart – Fantaisies
- Robert Schumann – Fantaisies
- Frederic Chopin – Ballades
Located in a secluded corner of Paris’ historical fifth arrondissement, also known as the Latin Quarter, this small, quaint church is truly a hidden gem. Constructed in 1733 in true Corinthian style, the church was used by different religious orders until the late 19th century, when it became a centre for the Catholic social movements founded by Robert and Albert de Mun. The interior is classically embellished with an impressive collection of paintings. Church Saint-Ephrem is a popular venue for classical music concerts, as its cosy, intimate atmosphere and great acoustics attract both locals and tourists.
Frederic Chopin was a Polish composer and pianist of the Romantic area (early 19th century). He wrote primarily piano solos but also piano concerts, chamber pieces and songs set to Polish lyrics. He is well-known as a poetic genius without competition of his generation. In fact, he created the concept of instrumental ballade and his performances were noted for their sensitivity and fine distinction. He spent most of his life in Paris, where he performed for the intimate atmospheres of salons. For most of his life, he suffered poor health. As a result, he died quite young at the age of 39, probably of tuberculosis.

A modern school contrasted with an old school. Colour lithograph after A. Games, 1942.

Selected images from this workView 1 image
About this work
The school is Impington Village College, designed by Walter Gropius and Maxwell Fry, under the aegis of Henry Morris
[London?] : Issued by A.B.C.A. (Army Bureau of Current Affairs),  (London, E.C.4 : Multi Machine Plates Ltd.)

Your Britain: fight for it now. A school in Cambridgeshire where village children are learning to grow up in healthful surroundings. This building is characteristic of the best developments in welfare and education. Designed by P.R.2 69. A. Games. '42 Verso of the Wellcome Institute's impression signed and dated in pencil: "Abram Games 1942 81/6"
One of a set of three posters commissioned by the Army Bureau of Current Affairs from Abram Games and Frank Newbould on the theme "Your Britain: fight for it now". The three works by Games bear record numbers 20281i, 20282i, and 20283i in the Wellcome Library catalogue. "Games's own posters were inspired by the Beveridge Reports's recently published blueprint for a welfare state. His three designs juxtaposed pre-war squalor with modern images of state-funded health centres, housing and schools. "It was strictly non-political," he claims, but we had to ask ourselves, "Why are we doing this? What kind of Britain are we fighting for?". Winston Churchill saw it differently ...Even now the suppression of the posters that Games regards as some of his best work still raises his hackles. "Churchill may have been a great wartime leader but he'd never visited a slum. I saw the war as a catalyst for achieving the things that Britain needed, but I think he saw those who supported the welfare state as communists." " (interview with Abram Games published in an article in The Sunday telegraph, 3 July 1994)

Prep time: About 10 minutes (plus a minimum of 30 minutes chilling time)
Baking time: About 12 minutes
Calories per serving: 130 (based on 22 servings, 1 cookie each)
I recently got a jar of Espresso Dulce de Leche from Stonewall Kitchen. I knew I wanted to incorporate it in a new recipe, and I must say, this is one of the best ways I could think of doing so 😉
Who else loves oatmeal chocolate chip cookies? I know I do. What else could make it better? I know. You’ll see!
Let’s get baking. Here are our ingredients:
4 tbsps Crisco – Baking Sticks All Vegetable Shortening (or unsalted butter)
½ cup dark brown sugar
2 Medium Eggs
½ cup Apple Sauce – Unsweetened
1 tsp vanilla extract
¾ cup Unbleached All-purpose Flour
1 cup Instant or Old-fashioned Oats
½ tsp Baking Soda
1/8 tsp fine salt
4 tbsps Cinnamon Chips (optional)
4 tbsps Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
Stonewall Kitchen Espresso Dulce de Leche (about ¼ cup, optional; substitutes with either Nutella or Peanut butter)
In a medium bowl, cream the shortening and sugar together. I used my hand mixer in doing so. If you’re using a hand mixer, the mixing should only take about 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the eggs to the sugar mixture one at a time. Then, add the apple sauce and vanilla extract and give it a little whisk. Set aside while you prep the flour mixture.
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda and salt. Add the oatmeal and mix well.
Add the flour mixture into the sugar mixture gradually. Mix well until all ingredients are well incorporated. Fold in the cinnamon chips and chocolate chips and mix until the chips are distributed evenly. Cover with cling wrap and chill in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Once the batter is chilled, drop a spoonful of it on an ungreased cookie sheet. This mixture will yield about 22 to 24 pieces, depending on the size.
Make a well in each piece of uncooked batter. Drop about ½ tsp of dulce de leche in each piece and close them all down before putting the cookie sheets into the oven.
Bake for 10 to 11 minutes if you want them a bit chewy, 12 to 13 minutes in you want them crunchy. Enjoy with your some vanilla ice cream, or by itself, with some coffee or hot tea.
Eat well and be well. – Ella Bella


Not long before Christmas, a group of first graders made some very special holiday memories with residents at Botsford Commons Senior Community in Farmington Hills.
Now in its sixth year, the “Giving Tree” event is still going strong. Residents, staff and families contribute toward the purchase of books for every first grade student at Botsford Elementary School in Livonia. During the event, residents found seats around the perimeter of the room, a perfect view to watch the first graders sing familiar holiday carols.
Even residents with memory impairments sang along, also smiling and excited. As the final chorus of “Jingle Bells” came to an end, a loud “HO! HO! HO!” rang out, and all the students jumped. Santa greeted everyone including 99-year-old Mary Slucter, who took the microphone and spoke to the students.
“All you children, I’m so glad you’re here today to see Santa and to see me, too, I’m 99 years old,” she said, prompting gasps from the students.
Santa told the children they were on the “nice list,” and so he had gifts for them all. After a countdown, the children all opened their personalized bags of books. They also received stuffed animals, thanks to the City of Farmington Hills, and a painting from Painting with A Twist of Farmington. Senior Helpers of Farmington Hills supported the event, as did Morrison Food Service.
Botsford Commons residents and Botsford Elementary students get together throughout the year, building intergenerational relationships. To learn more, call 248-426-6903.


Wakizashi - 1:12 scale - Curved blade - Plain
This is a shirasaya-style mount with a normal curved blade
A wakizashi is the shorter version of a katana
This model is comprised of 3 pieces:
1x wakizashi (wakizashi with blade, for hands)
1x scabbard (empty sheat)
1x wakizashi in scabbard (wakizashi with sheath instead of blade)
This is based on my multi-parts katana system (blade, sheath, guard, spacer, grip, tip. See my shop for other models), however at such a small scale it's not possible to keep the parts separate and assemble them after painting anymore, so I had to fuse the parts together and make variants of the blade: drawn and sheathed
General Outset Design shop disclaimer:
- If you're interested in one of my model in a different scale, feel free to ask me, and I'll check if it's doable.
- If you'd like me to make a model for you, feel free to ask me. If it's something I have an interest in and I have the time to, I might consider it.
- Shapeways has a bad habit of "updating" (add, remove, modify) their available materials and pricing system way too often. It's impossible for me to keep up with those stupid changes all the time, so some of my models available materials/prices may be out of date. Feel free to ask me if in doubt.

THANKS TO EARLY HYBRID PIONEERS, THE THRILL OF DRIVING A PORSCHE WILL LIVE ON
This article is from our archives and has not been updated and integrated with our "new" site yet... Even so, it's still awesome - so keep reading!
Published on Wed, Oct 20, 2010
By: The LACar Editorial Staff
Porsche's development chief, Wolfgang Duerheimer, recently disclosed a plan and philosophy we expect will become very common and embraced by many manufacturers: full-hybridization. When the second-generation Toyota Prius hit the road in late 2003, hybrids were seen as little more than well-funded science experiments and therefore a long-term risk for many drivers. As an owner of one of these vehicles, I faced a familiar barrage of questions every time I stopped at a fuel station: "Why are you putting gas in that car? When will you have to replace the batteries and how much will that cost? Aren't you worried about being stranded?" Here we are now, less than a decade from those confusing days, and hybrids are now an accepted and well-known option for many American drivers. Shopper interest for these vehicles has been closely tied to relative fuel prices or concerns—when the price of gasoline is high, so is hybrid interest and activity. When gas prices are relatively low, as seen today, hybrids lose some of their new-car gloss to the point of recently being named a great used-car buy by Kelley Blue Book analysts.
The significance of Porsche's announcement is that future electrification of the automobile does not necessarily mean remarkable fuel economy. A Porsche simply would not be a Porsche if it drove like a Prius or Honda Insight. In this application, electrification will be used just enough to reach future U.S. CAFE standards and Europe's impending CO2 emissions rules, but also will deliver a delightful and athletic driving experience worthy of the Porsche name. Without further hybridization and reduction in overall weight, such exciting vehicles would cease to exist or only be sold at ultra-exclusive prices in extremely limited volumes, thanks to these higher governmental fuel and emissions standards. In a strange automotive turn of events, thanks to early pioneers like the Prius and Civic Hybrid, the thrill of driving a Porsche will carry on.

Let’s start by saying congrats to Dina Lohan for winning the “Long Island Top Mom” award last night, and follow with a hearty WTF to the people that nominated her.
TOP MOM and Dina Lohan in the same sentence?
Words truly escape us. Dina seems to think she deserved the award (she showed up with her 82-year old mom in tow) and claimed to gawking photogs that she’s never partied with her mini-me Lindsay, ever. Note to Dina – getting hammered with your kid counts as partying! MamaLo also offered up this tidbit of advice that she often provides Lindsay – moms aspiring to destroy their tots with reality show work and rehab should pay attention! “Just to be honest and to stay morally correct,” she said. “And listen to your mother.” [Newsday]

Could I have made it through in the US? Yes, I could. I had a partner who, despite his own strained means, would have supported me, and I could have picked up the sort of work acquaintances in the same boat did. And like them, I’d have carved a small niche for myself in the next couple of years, even in those dreaded money-glomping monster-towns of Boston and New York. Eventually, I might even have been successful, and success in dollars is much more successful than success in third world currency.
So then why did I come back?
One, I needed it for my peace of mind. Despite many break-up tears, my partner and I are happier now than we were in those last months together.
Second, I felt – and feel – that I owe my country something. True, it’s a rotten hell-hole in many respects, but it was because of a subsidised higher education system that I received an excellent – excellent – undergrad and postgrad education for as little as $25, all accounted.
The public transportation system helped me have a social life and hold down a job without paying for a car and insurance and for ever-soaring petrol. Cheap local markets of local produce enabled me to keep eating well, or well enough, on a laughably tiny income. And while this isn’t a practice that I feel needs to be preserved militantly, the fact that I could live at home without social stigma meant my entire family did better financially and nutritionally than either my parents or I would have done on our own, with our Everyman and Everywoman jobs.
All of this why I came back. This place’s public structures – shoddy, basic and broken as they are – helped me live a middle-class life instead of languishing at the bottom with no escape. Which is why I want to work here, and pay my taxes here, and vote here and debate here and work for people here.
And who knows, in twenty years, it just might bear a tiny fruit.

Several months after revealing her third battle with cancer, Olivia Newton-John was spotted out and about in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The “Grease” star — looking casual and comfortable in sneakers, a quarter-zip and a fanny pack — appeared to be in good spirits as she went grocery shopping with her 33-year-old daughter, Chloe Lattanzi.
Newton-John, 70, confirmed in September 2018 that she was fighting cancer in her back that stemmed from a tumor at the base of her spine.
In March, she denied reports that she was close to dying, saying: “My friends were calling and believing this stuff. I had to say, ‘You really think if it was that bad you wouldn’t know?’”
While her health struggles have been a challenge, the actress has remained optimistic.
“Of course I had my moments, and my tears and all that, but I have a wonderful husband [John Easterling] who supports me through those things,” she told People at the time.
The actress previously said she was treating her cancer with a combination of natural treatments, like cutting sugar from her die,t and using medical cannabis tinctures legally grown by her husband.
She was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992, and in 2013 doctors discovered she had cancer in her shoulder. Then, in May 2017 she opened up about battling breast cancer that metastasized to her sacrum.

Information on heart disease:
Heart disease is a cardiovascular disease that affects the function of heart to circulate fresh oxygenated blood to the cells in the body. Heart disease can be a cause of any disorder or disability in formation of the structure of the heart even before birth. It may also happen due to presence of certain substances in the blood cells or other parts that supply enough blood to the heart.
Types of heart diseases:
1. Congenital heart failure
2. Coronary artery disease
3. Heart attack
4. Pericardial disease
5. Aorta disease
6. Heart valve disease
7. Vascular disease
Causes of heart disease:
The major causes of heart diseases are blood pressure, too much cholesterol, disorder of the heart and defects formed in the organs that supply blood to the heart. Any cardiovascular disease can be treated either by medication or surgery, unless there is a major disorder that can even be fatal. High blood pressure is one of the major causes detected. Sometimes the arteries and veins get affected due to formation of fatty substances in the blood that block the supply of blood to the heart muscle. Smoking affects lungs and also increases the risk of suffering from heart attacks. Physical inactivity affects the cardiovascular functions of the heart, which is very unhealthy as it gives rise to deposit unwanted fats in the blood cells that can affect the blood supply. Being overweight can cause other cardiovascular diseases. Diabetes affects the balance of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and high-density lipoproteins (HDL), which are present due to cholesterol, thus affecting the blood flow and damaging the heart muscle. This often leads to heart attacks. Heredity can cause heart diseases. Disorder in the heart rhythm often leads to stroke or heart disease.
Symptoms of heart diseases:
Heart diseases can often have no specific symptoms hence termed as a "silent killer" in medical terms. Some of the discomforts happen due to stress or inactivity and often are ignored as heart disease symptoms. There may be some complications of the heart, which you are unaware of. Aging often welcomes diseases. Statistics indicate that men suffer more from cardiovascular diseases than women. Symptoms always alert a person and more care if taken should avoid any future complications.
Some of the symptoms of heart diseases are:
Shortness of breath
Fast and irregular heart beats
Fainting or dizziness

I am tremendously in debt to economist and Nobel Prize winner Milton Friedman and his 10-part TV series “Free To Choose,” which gives a clear and comprehensive view on free markets and how government intervention often (but not always) mucks things up.
It originally aired on PBS during the 1980s, but thankfully it is now available on our glorious internet. Anyone with an interest in economics should take the time to watch these videos.
The first half of each video is a short documentary narrated by Friedman, where he travels all over the world and provides examples of various forms of markets and government intervention. The second half is a debate-styled dialogue between Friedman and other notable economists, union members, professors, politicians, and others.
The debates are where you really get to see Friedman’s intellectual prowess in action. During his time he was well-known as one of the best and most informed arguers in academia. Not too many could hold their ground in the midst of Friedman. Economist George Schultz once joked, “Everybody loves to argue with Milton, particularly when he isn’t there.”
Positions Advocated in this film include:
“Friedman advocates laissez faire economic policies, often criticizing interventionist government policies and their cost in personal freedoms and economic efficiency in the United States and abroad. Areas of focus include government taxation on gas and tobacco, government regulation of the public school systems, and the Federal Reserve’s role in exacerbating the Great Depression by reducing the money supply in the years leading up to it. On the subject of welfare, the Friedmans argue that current welfare practices are creating “wards of the state”, as opposed to “self-reliant individuals”, and suggest a negative income tax as a less harmful alternative. Other ideas covered are: decriminalization of drugs, tighter control of Fed money supply, and the repeal of laws favoring labor unions.”

John of England
Jump to navigation Jump to search
English: John (24 December 1166 – 18/19 October 1216), also known as John Lackland (Anglo-Norman French: Johan sanz Terre), was King of England from 6 April 1199 until his death. Following the Battle of Bouvines, John lost the duchy of Normandy to Philip II of France, which resulted in the collapse of most of the Angevin Empire and contributed to the subsequent growth in power of the Capetian dynasty during the 13th century. The First Barons' War at the end of John's reign led to the sealing of the Magna Carta, a document sometimes considered to be an early step in the evolution of the constitution of the United Kingdom.

AN UKNOWN GUEST OF NOBLE BLOOD Andrew finished piling the manure of the stable into the wheelbarrow and wiped his forehead on his bare arm, then his arm in its turn on his trousers. He was stripped to the waist, for the day was horribly hot - it was near midsummer's day - and women never came into the stables, even had their inn had guests at the moment, which it didn't being still the afternoon. Only his family's own horse, an old mare beyond breeding years and soon for the knackers, was left in the stable. He took the time to water her, for she nickered at him as he walked by - why do people have trouble understanding animals, he thought; he understood her request perfectly! - and then worked at filling the old tub at the back of the stable from the small well they had there. When they did arise and began the process of installing the man in Andrew's room without his parent's knowledge, Andrew moved first. A pot was boiling on the stove, but his mother was nowhere to be seen. From there it was necessary to make it to the stairs at the back of the kitchen to his room on the second floor of the inn. That was easy since their family quarters did not join to the rooms of the inn itself by any other door, and then the man was in Andrew's bed, and Andrew looked at the big form on his bed and smiled. "Now I shall get you some food." he said. "I fear it will be only bread and cheese, all we have at this moment."
He then knelt in the clean hay he had lain over the sticky clay about the well and sluiced the water over first his face and then his body, closing his eyes for the sheer joy of the cold water over his work-heated body, how it ran down his chest and over his abdomen with solid fingers of cool caress. Another slosh and his back was splashed with an abundance of refreshing moisture, this landing like swathes of cloth, not heavy woolen, but delicate gossamer veils like the fine ladies that sometimes frequented the inn wore about their persons and cast at him in a coquettish manner, drap ing it about his cheek as if accidentally, but looking aside at him as they did, with that smirk of missing teeth and the heavy odor of perfume they seemed to choose to replace regular baths.
That distracted his thoughts for a time. These women wanted him, but they would never win him, for they were uniformly of French ancestry and his family was of the Neresterii, the original inhabitants of this country, and to him these women with all their finery were interlopers and leeches on the sweat of his family and kin. The conquering king, Phillippe I, had been wise to choose a Carlovain lady for his wife, and his three successors had each done the same. Phillippe V now held the throne, and with his ancestry now far more Carlovain than French, he had the people's loyalty as well. Would that the other nobles had done the same, instead of continually importing and exporting those filthy French whores in silken gowns that flirted with him, and for the sake of his family's business he had to smile and flirt back....
Another scoop of the water into his face killed the unpleasant memories of the dirty French women, and he lifted up more, his thoughts now running only to the wonderfully refreshing feel of this water, cool despite the hot day from its long dark journey beneath the earth. Another double-handful, this time he lifted it high in his pressed-together palms, to let it splash over the heels of his hands and down onto his face and run over his neck in slow rivulets like a lover's caress, completely down his body. Ooh, that felt good, his body's heat was now subsiding to a tolerable level once again, though the pleasure of the water's touch had stirred another heat in his body. He found the sponge for washing himself with, and soaked it in the tub, then lifted it up and let water fall out of it as it would, into his upturned face, one arm high above his head and the other played over his body.
He looked at his right arm muscle as it moved his hand back and forth, and then paused to flex it, smiled at its ample size, and then squeezed the sponge over the enlarged muscle. Now the sponge, damp only, was brought to play over his body. Daily washings let him use their home-made soap sparingly, for it was stringent stuff, and he mostly plied the sponge as it was, using it to flush the poisons of his labor out of his pores. Done, he again sluiced up water from the tub and then played his hands both over his body, rubbing. Paused, looked at the back door of the inn, noting it was empty and no voices came from within, and then soaked the sponge and stood up. His trousers were easily opened and they were bulky, loose things, it was easy enough to push the loaded sponge down into his groin and scrub there, oh, there! He loved the roughly soft rasp of the sponge between his legs, and then over his thighs, feeling how his thigh muscles were long ellipses running down his body from hip to knee that rippled as he touched them.
His bath was finished, but he lingered, running his hands over his breasts, catching and pinching the nipples for the sheer joy of the delicious pain they gave. He groaned and one hand fished down to capture his manhood and he sighed as it pulsed with turgid life in his hand, filling his eyes with a sharp rapture that outlined every detail around him, painting it with the brush-strokes of dreams.
His hand tweaked his nipple again and again, and in the joy of that nub of bright sensation and the building hot bliss as his organ grew to its full enraged height, his other hand still clutching his nipple, and the two other hands that stroked both his sides and ran up his ribs to his armpits, a delicate touch that excited his senses and...what was this?
He gasped, froze, his body stiff and afraid to move, then he heard the silken, masculine voice in his ear. "Nay, good fellow, be not alarmed. I see your innocent pleasure and would not corrupt it by dint of unwanted attentions from myself. But the way the lights of the sun glistened off the water beaded like pearls on your youthful body." the man paused and drew in a shuddering breath, "And the way your muscles moved in the supple manner of a cat after its prey as your hands pressed over them." Again the hissing of air pulled into desperate lungs, "I thought that mayhaps my own hands may find a welcome here as well. If I am wrong, but say the word and I shall not tarry, but go around to the front of the inn as an honest traveler should."
"If my father should see this...." Andrew gasped out instead of a negative.
"He is in front of the inn as is your mother, if the voices I heard were those of your parents. They will not interrupt us."
The voice was assuredly male, the hands were strong and the breath on his cheek sweet-smelling. No Frenchman this. A fellow member of the Neresterii, then, who had stopped by the inn, for perhaps only a drink, for the inn was close enough to Heslov to make traveling on to that large town, the capital of Carlovain, before nightfall far more attractive than stopping at this early hour. Andrew relaxed slightly and said the greeting of the Neresterii, "You are well-met, my kinsman." The strong hands of his as-yet-unseen companion moved over his chest, Andrew felt the strong frame behind him. This man was taller by him, but not by much, and that brush of hair on his shoulder was undoubtedly a beard. The Neresterii were all hairy, and Andrew daily watched his own body in wonder, for every day more hairs shown in the morning light, white still, but darkening as they grew in number.
Teeth nipped at his left earlobe and Andrew laid his head back as the hands, so softly gentle, found and replaced his own at his organ, the slender fingers wrapped around his shaft and pulled it up and then skinned it back as the teeth pulled, then reached and grabbed another hold on him, worried his ear like a terrier worries a bone. The hands lowered Andrew's pants, which fell easily away and slid about his ankles.
"Ah!" Andrew said softly. "Ah, good sir, your attentions are most welcome. I pray that you will not hesitate to let your body do with me as you will."
The man shifted, the cloak which had pressed against Andrew's back shifted away and Andrew found the sensations which replaced it. A definite touch of hair on his upper back, his lower back, and a hot oval of pressing flesh above his buttocks. This man was nude but for the cloak! "Sir, your clothes. How can this be?" he asked, gasped as the hands now both gripped his pole of manliness and pumped it with hard, even strokes.
I was surprised in my bed last night by treachery." the man breathed in his ear. "I barely was able to grab this cloak and make my escape from the French scum who invaded my quarters. I have ridden in the woods between here and Heslov ever since, seeking asylum among the kinsmen of the Neresterii. Have I found it here, though I lack for coins for my lodging? I shall repay you double-fold very soon, I think, for my allies know my plans for escape."
"Verily, sir." Andrew said. "For if you are enemies of the French, then you are friends of my family, for I know you are of the Neresterii." That thought excited him more, the grip of a rebel's hands on his body. "But I would let you stay with me even though you can only repay me with your touch. I shall not even inform my parents of your presence."
"I am glad." the man breathed in his ear. "I find my plight to be...most stimulating. My whole body feels alive, and I hunger as a beast in the field does."
"I shall feed you." Andrew said, abashed. This man was suffering. His needs could wait.
"I hunger for you." the man clarified. He lowered his body at the knees, and Andrew felt that hard rod which had been jutting above his buttocks now slide between his wet legs and nestle his balls, then push above them. "I find my body enslaved with rut. The sight of you only inflamed me the further. I burn." he sighed to Andrew. "I burn."
"Then let us quench our mutual flame." Andrew said, holding his legs together as the man began to hunch back and forth, giving that pulsating man-rod the friction it needed. The stranger licked and nibbled at his back, tasting his flesh.
"Ah, goodman, your body smells and tastes of the earth. Never have I held such as you in Heslov. Oh, I must taste more of you than I can reach here."
"Then let me go and I shall turn around." Andrew said.
"I shall release you, but do not flee from me when you see my face." the stranger said. "I could not bear it." And the hands released, the prod pulled out from his legs.
Andrew turned and saw the face, a regal face that bore a thin beard and mustache, carefully trimmed to a bare half-inch width around his lips and down in twin swooping lines to join the beard at the ridge of the jowls. Such a dainty beard-and-mustache would never be kept by a commoner, for they required a careful toiletry to maintain. The face beneath this affectation of beard was perhaps that of a man of his late thirties. His eyes were blue and clear as the sky, his cheeks taut and flat and unlined from arduous labor. It was well he had a cloak with hood, for this face screamed noble blood from its every pore. "But I must ask you to guard my identity, for I am incognito and fleeing for my life."
"Sir, to guard your identity, I would have to know your identity." Andrew admitted. "My work does not permit me to travel to Heslov and I have seen none of the townsmen save for those who visit our tavern. You are unknown to me, though I see you are of noble birth."
"Unknown, and of noble birth. Then you recognize me not." the man said, and seemed pleased. "For now, it is better so, for I would hold you as a man holds another, no more and no less." He stepped up and that huge rod that had plied between Andrew's legs was now stabbing his navel. But Andrew's own manhood was now touching that hairy body. The man bore a wide, ample chest, strong, with muscles of fluid grace adorning, decorated by the copious hair of his chest that formed a solid sheet down the front of his body, almost uniformly hairy the entire length. Andrew thought of it own scraggly growth in the diamond between his breasts, and grimaced. This was a man's hair he was looking at, he was still a lad despite his recent birthday of majority. He had to admit that he was physically stronger than this man, more muscled. But his body was that of a work-beast formed by labor, this man's was one formed by playful exercise alone.
Those lips, thin and white, reached for his own and Andrew forgot now any questions about this man. He was Neresterii and he was in need as was Andrew, that was sufficient.
Such a kiss Andrew had never had, and indeed never imagined. The sheer lust that poured out of this man into Andrew through those lips, the total liberty they granted, so that Andrew's hands moved freely up to grasp that hairy body and draw it closer to him. He grunted and squirmed his cock against the equally tumescent prong of the stranger.
The man's hands gripped Andrew's buttocks and pulled him tighter still to their groins, and Andrew groaned, feeling his cock spew clear lust against the hairy form that held him in thrall. It burned as it left his body, and it must have burned the man as well, but he only gasped in his turn and rutted the more against Andrew, and Andrew felt the transparent liquid scalding his abdomen as well.
"Ah, sir, enough." Andrew said after a time. "The hay is fresh-laid in our stable, and is but a few steps away. Let us retire there before we burst from our exertions on our feet."
The man's face was flushed, and he agreed. Andrew hiked up his pants quickly and held them with one hand while he followed the cloaked stranger into the barn.
Plenty of stable's stalls had been prepared for the guests who would arrive near sundown. They took the first one available and the stranger cast aside his cloak and laid it out for a blanket for them, showing Andrew his equally hairy back, and Andrew let his trousers fall, as the stranger sat then lay down upon the cloak, holding up his arms to greet Andrew as he knelt down to lay atop him.
Again their bodies ground together, their grunts of need inflaming the air about them.
"Ah, young man, your need is great as is mine." the stranger sighed at last. "But I must now ask you what you know of lovemaking before I do you any injury."
Andrew flushed. "I am yet unknown to these pleasures, save alone. But I would learn all from you as quickly as you will teach me."
"I will tarry and teach you all this night." the stranger replied. "But for now, you will take your pleasure with me and give me pleasure in return." And the man's legs, hairy brushstrokes on Andrew's thighs, reached around him. "But rub a bit of your mouth's water onto your manhood to ease the path for me, as I shall also do."
Andrew did as he said, hawked and spit into his palm, the stranger doing the same, and their two hands plied over Andrew's rod until they had coated it and it felt slimy and sticky in Andrew's hand.
"Now, goodman, take me for your first pleasures, and I am grateful for the privilege." the stranger said, bringing his legs up to close over Andrew's back, the heels touching Andrew's buttocks.
"I shall be gentle as I may." Andrew said as he pushed his cock into the warm embrace of hair-encrusted flesh, finding the entrance hot as the steam from a cauldron on the fire. "Pray warn me when I go astray."
"Pah!" the stranger said and used his heels to shove Andrew into that seething cauldron, and Andrew found himself deeply imbedded in the stranger's body. "All my life have people been gentle with me. I crave the feel of roughness. Give me roughness, and you shall be my first in this. I am a man as are you and not made of foolscap. You say gentle, I say rip me wide if you can and I shall beg you for more!"
Andrew needed no further bidding from this nobleman, for his blood was pounding in his ears, drowning his brain in red haze, and these words removed the last barricade, he forgot about any finesse he should use and simply let his body do as it would, and it chose to plunge-fuck with rapid strokes into the hot male body squirming beneath his own.
"Ah, ah, yes, young man, that is the way I have always wished." the stranger moaned. "To be taken, taken utterly in this. Ravish me completely, I beg you, sir, pray, ravish me utterly."
Andrew was beyond words, his world was embroiled in the sensations that rushed through his eyes and roared in his ears and assailed his nostrils and soaked his mouth until he had to swallow to prevent himself from literally drooling on this compliant stranger, he shifted and got the weight of the man's lower body onto his own legs, and that let him drill in deeper, he clutched the legs that now stood straight up on either side of him and wrapped them in his arms and held them steady for they were flailing about as the stranger palped his own rod in a frenzy, not stroking, but an odd pulsing motion of his hand which nonetheless moved the foreskin back and forth over the glans slightly and seemed to give the man enormous pleasure.
"Uh, uh!" Andrew groaned as his body shifted into a higher tempo, now he was moving in a fury of mindless lust, his brain was boiling inside his skull from the heat, his eyes barely could focus on the man beneath him, and the feelings that raced through his body became all his world.
The man was thrashing now beneath him, groaning alarmingly and Andrew wondered briefly if he was being too rough, but then the man almost yelled and white shots of sperm flew from his cock to douse his chest and face with astonishingly thick clumps of jism.
The climax, too, caused the man's anus to clamp onto Andrew, he was squeezed tightly in his thrusts so that he could not have withdrawn had he wished, he was reduced to slight back-and-forth movements in the clenched interior, and that, too, was good, more than good, his body was screaming for release and he gave it its head like a half-broken stallion he was riding, and his cock swelled to become enormous in its importance in his body's sensations, and then the swelling burst of a sudden, his cock returned to its prior size and he was a drowning swimmer in the ocean of his orgasm, he felt his cock squirting into this man like the mother of all releases, harder and faster than his own hand could have managed to give him, it was like his very insides were pouring out of his body into this man, he was being drained of his very soul!
Done, his body emptied and hollow-feeling, and he lay down upon the stranger, a last vestige of decency preventing him from crashing down with his entire weight, resting instead on his elbows.
Those lips reached for him again and now Andrew kissed him not with passion but with gratitude. "Oh, sir, thank you." he sighed when that kiss was done. "Such a gift you have given me now, that I could never repay."
"Give me yourself this night, and I shall be more than repaid." the man said. "That and the hospitality of your own room."
"Yes, of course." Andrew said, brought back to reality.
He started to get up, but the man grasped him. "In a short while." the stranger clarified and kissed him again. Andrew smiled, and now he did lay down upon the man entirely. The better to let their bodies blend together into one.
"Your gifts are appreciated just the same." the man said and smiled. "And some water to drink if you could, for I am thirsty."
"Yes, of course." Andrew said.
The goblet of water delayed his scavenging and that gave his mother time to come in. "Mercy, child, what are you doing?" she asked him.
Andrew was caught with a plate of bread and cheese in one hand and a goblet of water in the other. "I...I was hungry." he said.
"But your lunch was less than two hours ago." His mother reminded him. "Can't you wait for supper?"
"I'd...I'd rather not." Andrew said.
"Well, then, sit down and eat it and then get that muckpile finished. Lord Montaigne's men will be by with the wagons for it by the end of the week. It'll pay our taxes for this quarter at least. Though the Church's tithe is due this Sabbath and how are we to pay that, when they take only coins and few coins are to be had?"
"We'll manage." Andrew said, trying to take it to his room, "or beg an indulgence from the priest as we did last time. We were only three weeks late last time, he will understand."
"You weren't there when I asked him. Sit at the table here and eat that. He warned we must not be late again or he'd report it to the bishop. Sit down, I say!"
"I wanted to take it to my room." Andrew said.
"Your room? Whoever heard of such things." his mother said. "Your room is for sleeping. You sit down and eat that quick and get back to work."
"Yes, mater." Andrew said resignedly. He sat at the table and took a small sip of the water.
His mother stirred the pot and then wiped her hands and turned to the dishes in a tub on the floor. Andrew took her preoccupation as a chance, and he grabbed the plate and the goblet and took off up the stairs. She called after him but he ignored her.
The man was smiling as he entered. "I feared you were caught and be forced to eat it all yourself." he said.
"You heard?" Andrew asked.
"Verily, I would have had to have been much further away not to have heard."
"My mother." Andrew explained. "This life is rough on her. My father is unable to work, so she and I must take care of this inn ourselves."
"How much is your Church tithe?" the man asked, concerned.
"Five gold pieces every quarter." Andrew said.
The man scowled. "That is too much."
"I agree, but what can we do? The Church of Carlovain has been raising the tithe steadily ever since the Schism. The priest explains that the Catholic priests took everything when the King let them depart in peace, and now they must rebuild."
"Your priest lies, for they left it all behind as part of the agreement." the man said. "Your priest is taking that tithe for himself. Perhaps with a cut for the bishop's own pocket."
"I have long thought that." Andrew said. "But our worries are not yours. Eat, sir, for my mother and I make this cheese and bread ourselves and she has a reputation as a cook. It helps our business some, her skilled cooking. Now, I had best return to my labor, for she is right that the muckpile must be ready for this Friday, or Lord Montaigne will go hard on us."
"Andrew!" came his mother's call at his door. "Come out this minute!"
"Hide under the covers." Andrew said and the man did so. Andrew peered out the door.
"Who is that man in your room?" She demanded.
"A friend of mine." Andrew said. "He is in trouble and must hide here. Just for a day or two."
"Can he pay for his lodging?"
"He will send us payment, he has said."
"Double-fold." the voice beneath the covers assured them.
"Hmph!" she said. "If promises were gold, we'd have wealth to outstrip the Pope. Your father keeps letting people pay with promises, that's why we won't have the tithe by this Sabbath."
"But...but I am sure he will pay." Andrew said. "Mother, I am an adult now, and I must ask you to trust me on this."
"I'll trust you as much as I trust your father." she said.
"But you don't trust him at all!" Andrew said in despair.
"Exactly." she said. "But you must find out the uselessness of words for yourself. Very well, I'll leave your guest alone. But if he doesn't pay, you'll agree to never take promises for payment ever again. Agree?"
"Yes, mater." Andrew said. "I agree."
"Then he might as well come down to the kitchen to eat that." his mother said. "I don't like the idea of strange men in my son's bed. It's unseemly. This chord that runs in the blood of the Neresterii men is a constant puzzlement to me. Why is it that none of you are content with the touch of your wives. Why must you all grope each other with your lusts?"
"Our blood runs too hot within us." the stranger said, his voice muffled from the covers still. He continued to hide his face from them. "No woman could handle us. So we turn to each other rather than burden our families with bastard children. Isn't it better that way?"
"No! I keep waiting to find out that Andrew has been in some other man's bed and will have to confess the sin." His mother looked at Andrew's face, and hers grew firm as stone. Then, in a very still voice. "Sir, I must insist that you remove those covers right now. All of them."
"Mother!" Andrew said in despair. "Mother, please, I beg of you, don't do this!"
"I must see for myself. He'll not have a stitch on him, and I'm sure if I looked I'd find your bedsheets stained as well. But I must see."
"Only if you promise not to say a word about this to anyone, then I shall lower the covers." the man said.
"You think I'll brag that my son has begun to engage in the typical unnatural behavior of Neresterii men? My lips are sealed."
"You must promise that you won't tell anyone I was here at all." the man pressed.
"Eh? Very well. Your wife needn't be burdened by this, though I doubt you've fooled her any. Neresterii men!" she humphed. "I'm glad my parents were English. My son has half a chance not to fall completely into your evil clutches, at least."
"I have your promise, good woman?"
"Yes, yes, not a word to anyone! Now let me see the man my son has lain with!" she said.
He lowered the covers and then cast them off, to lay there, his body exposed to her.
"Mother, please." Andrew pleaded. "I can explain everything if you'll just listen to me. I..."
"Your Majesty!" his mother screamed and dropped immediately to her knees. "Oh, Sire, I did not know! Please forgive me!"
"Majesty?" Andrew said. "This man is...?
The man smiled. "Phillippe V, at your service, my young man. The French lords are in rebellion against me and I am now running for my life. The news will reach your tavern soon enough, I am sure. If you could get word to my royal bodyguards where I am, I can repay you amply for your services in my time of need, for I fled as I have told you, with nothing more than my life."
Andrew knelt slowly. The King! And he had...he had....
His world swirled and he fainted dead away, as his mind completed the horrifying thought.
He had just fucked the King of Carlovain!
SHOW ME MORE!
Andrew finished piling the manure of the stable into the wheelbarrow and wiped his forehead on his bare arm, then his arm in its turn on his trousers. He was stripped to the waist, for the day was horribly hot - it was near midsummer's day - and women never came into the stables, even had their inn had guests at the moment, which it didn't being still the afternoon. Only his family's own horse, an old mare beyond breeding years and soon for the knackers, was left in the stable. He took the time to water her, for she nickered at him as he walked by - why do people have trouble understanding animals, he thought; he understood her request perfectly! - and then worked at filling the old tub at the back of the stable from the small well they had there.
When they did arise and began the process of installing the man in Andrew's room without his parent's knowledge, Andrew moved first. A pot was boiling on the stove, but his mother was nowhere to be seen. From there it was necessary to make it to the stairs at the back of the kitchen to his room on the second floor of the inn. That was easy since their family quarters did not join to the rooms of the inn itself by any other door, and then the man was in Andrew's bed, and Andrew looked at the big form on his bed and smiled. "Now I shall get you some food." he said. "I fear it will be only bread and cheese, all we have at this moment."

Orange juice refers to the juice of oranges. It is made by extraction from the fresh fruit, by desiccation and subsequent reconstitution of dried juice, or by concentration of the juice and the subsequent addition of water to the concentrate. In American English, the slang term O.J. may also be used to refer to orange juice.
Due to the importance of oranges to the economy of the state of Florida, “the juice obtained from mature oranges of the species Citrus sinensis and hybrids thereof” was adopted as the official beverage of Florida1 in 1967.
A cup serving of raw, fresh orange juice, amounting to 248 g or 8 ounces, has 124 mg of vitamin C (>100% RDI).3 It has 20.8 g of sugars and has 112 Calories. It also supplies potassium, thiamin, and folate.
Citrus juices contain flavonoids (especially in the pulp), that may have health benefits. Orange juice is also a source of the antioxidant hesperidin. Due to its citric acid content, orange juice is acidic, with a typical pH of around 3.5.
Fresh-squeezed, unpasteurized juice is the closest to consuming the orange itself. This version of the juice consists of oranges that are squeezed and then bottled without having any additives or flavor packs inserted. The juice is not subjected to pasteurization. Fresh-squeezed, unpasteurized juices are usually found in specialty food stores[dubious – discuss] or at a grove that squeezes it. Fresh squeezed orange juice has a typical shelf life of 12 days. Fresh-squeezed, unpasteurized juices typically originate from small juicing operations, such as a local citrus grove. All other types of orange juice have either been heated or cooked, have additives, or are made from concentrate. read more

The Castelluccio plain, famous for its prized lentils and set against the backdrop of the legendary and mysterious Sibillini Mountains, takes on a fantastic appearance during late Spring.
Thanks to the simultaneous blossoming of the grasslands and lentil fields the great valley is becomes an immense, shimmering display of colour. It's a great transformation from the height of winter when temperatures are known to have dropped to below -30°c.
The road which leads towards the Castelluccio Spur passes right through the middle of the plain.It is here where the most famous lentils of Italy are produced.
They are world famous for their delicate taste and for their tiny size: their diameter reaches around 2 mm.
Since 1998 the lentil produced in Castelluccio di Norcia has been awarded the I.G.T., or Protected Geographical Indication.
Cultivation has always been organic, not because of recent trends, but by going back to the century-old traditions of working the terrains. This has remained unchanged and through the method of crop-rotation, the lentils are cultivated across the hilly, clay fields surrounding the valley. One year wheat, the next lentils, and then the land remains as pasture during the third. And then the process starts all over again. This system allows for no interruption and avoids over exploitation of the soil.
The lack of chemical use and the fact that cultivation is mainly manual justify the somewhat elevated price of the true Castelluccio lentils.
The nutritional properties of these local pulses are their high protein content, a good level of sugars and a low fat content, the latter being of the unsaturated kind which helps to prevent arteriosclerosis.
In addition, lentils are rich in vitamins, minerals and, in particular, high in fibre, necessary for our organisms to function properly and effective against cholesterol. For its high protein content alone, it is considered a highly nutritional food-stuff, especially when accompanied by cereals (bread, pasta, rice).
Eating lentils frequently can prevent many health problems and provide a healthy, balanced and complete diet. Italians seem to remember lentils only around New Year time, but in reality it is advisable to eat them all year round.
Adding their exquisite flavour to other ingredients and recipes: soups, risottos, casseroles, salads, vegetable stews, or added to braised meats.
In order to avoid losing valuable minerals and vitamins, it is best to cook them in as little liquid as possible so that lentil meals will always remain a rich and healthy food source.

Rolled lawns for summer cottage
Rolled lawns are considered modern design of the dacha, as well as an alternative to standard sowing grass. They are used for a variety of sporting events. You can install furniture on them and have a family picnic. But most often the turf is used for decorative design of the site, as it is the most beautiful decoration of landscape design.
The main advantage of this type of lawn is that it can be landscaped with a fairly short time. Make a suburban area a cozy corner of nature can quality rolled lawn Nizhny Novgorod has many shops where you can buy this material. A green velvet lawn will delight with its natural freshness, soothe the nervous system, and at a certain location it can visually enlarge the borders of the summer cottage and help build a beautiful composition on it.
Also, the advantages of the finished lawn cover includethat it can perfectly clean the air of dust and gas, help create a beneficial ecological microclimate, muffle noise and absorb vibration. Lawn grass, as an air conditioner with excellent power, can have a cooling effect.
The advantage of the lawn is also resistant to frost, drought and rain. It practically does not trample down, does not germinate by weeds and does not spoil by pests. Green soft carpet can significantly save time and effort. You can lay it on warm days. After winter, such a coating will require low costs to restore its former appearance and beauty.
But lawns in rolls have several disadvantages. After laying in the eyes, visibility of seams between parts of the turf may be noticeable. They can stand out for two months. Due to improper care, detachment of turf can form, which subsequently leads to its deterioration. Detachment occurs when poor watering, so it must be strictly carried out. The service life of a rolled lawn is much less than a standard lawn, which is obtained by sowing.

Chennai: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Saturday moved a resolution in the Assembly urging the Central government to revoke the three farm laws as they are affecting the farmers’ interest.
Opposing the move, the BJP members walked out of the House.
Moving the resolution in the Assembly, Stalin said the three farm laws are against the farmers and would destroy agriculture.
He said the farm laws are of no use for the farmers and are also against the principle of federalism and taking away the powers of the states.
Stalin said the erstwhile AIADMK government did not bring such a resolution.
The three laws are: The Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, and The Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act.
According to him, the farmers have been protesting against the three farm laws since August 2020.
The three laws are beneficial for the corporates and not for the farmers, he added.
He said the laws are silent on the minimum support price (MSP) for the farmers for their produce.
He also said the government had presented a separate Budget for agriculture this year.
Tamil Nadu’s Minister for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare M.R.K. Panneerselvam while presenting the state’s first Budget for agriculture recently had said it was dedicated to the farmers protesting in Delhi against the three farms laws.
Majority of the parties in Tamil Nadu-barring AIADMK and the BJP — were opposed to the three farm laws introduced by the Centre.
While in the opposition, Stalin had urged the former Chief Minister K. Palaniswami to convene a special session of the state Assembly to pass a resolution for revoking the three farm laws.
Palaniswami was a vocal supporter of the three farm laws saying that they are beneficial for the farmers.
