Poison ivy is a pesky weed that can cause quite a bit of pain and discomfort. Whether you’re an athlete or just trying to enjoy the outdoors, you may be wondering if there’s anything you can do to get rid of it. The short answer is yes, there are many ways to get rid of poison ivy. In this post, we will explore some of the most common methods and which ones work best for different people. From topical creams to over-the-counter medications, read on to find out what works best for your needs.
What is Poison Ivy?
Poison ivy, commonly known as sumac, is a shrub or small tree in the rue family that can grow to 6 meters (20 feet) tall. The leaves are ovate-elliptic to lance-shaped, 1.5 to 5 centimeters (0.6 to 2 inches) long and 0.5 to 1 centimeter (0.2 to 0.8 inches) wide, with serrated margins. The flowers are white and borne in clusters of three or more, with five petals each. The fruit is a capsule about 6 millimeters (0.24 inch) long and 3 millimeters (0.12 inch) wide, containing two seeds. Poison ivy is found throughout the Eastern United States and parts of Canada, Europe, and Asia.
Poison ivy produces oil that causes skin irritation when it comes into contact with the skin of humans or animals. The oil can also cause breathing problems if it gets into the lungs. Symptoms of exposure to poison ivy oil include a rash that starts as red spots on the skin and then turns into blisters filled with fluid or pus. itchiness, fever, headache, shortness of breath, dizziness, nausea, tingling sensations in the hands and feet, pale coloration of the skin due to tissue death, and vomiting..
What are the Symptoms of Poison Ivy?
Poison Ivy is an allergic reaction to a plant, most commonly ivy. When someone is exposed to poison ivy, they may develop redness, itching, and welts on the skin. In more severe cases, people may experience difficulty breathing or even paralysis. The symptoms of poisoning will vary depending on the person’s sensitivity to poison ivy and the amount of poison ingested.
How Do You Treat Poison Ivy?
Poison ivy is a plant that can cause a rash on the skin. There are many different ways to treat poison ivy, but the most common is to use a topical cream or lotion. You can also take an over-the-counter corticosteroid, such as prednisone, for up to 10 days if you have severe symptoms. If you have mild symptoms, you can try ibuprofen or acetaminophen. If the poison ivy is on your face, you should avoid using lotions or creams that contain oil or petrolatum because these ingredients will make the rash worse.
Can I Get A Steroid Shot For Poison Ivy?
There are a few ways to address poison ivy with steroid shots. Steroid injections can be given directly into the skin, and work by reducing inflammation and swelling. Alternatively, you can use a cream or solution that contains steroids. Oral steroids taken by mouth may also be effective in treating poison ivy. It is important to remember that any treatment for poison ivy will require close follow-up from a doctor as the rash may flare up again after treatment is completed.
Although it can be incredibly frustrating, there’s unfortunately not a lot that you can do to treat poison ivy naturally. If you’ve been diagnosed with the condition, your best bet is to seek medical attention as soon as possible and start taking prescribed medications. However, even in the case of a severe allergic reaction to poison ivy, steroid shots may still provide some relief. Discuss this option with your doctor before heading to the pharmacy, though!

More about this monument. In the early 1940s, the United Daughters of the Confederacy led an effort to erect a marker in Sarasota to commemorate Benjamin's escape. On January 22, 1942, the new marker was unveiled with great pomp and circumstance, including a parade, patriotic music, a luncheon at the John Ringling Hotel, and a program at the Municipal Auditorium. Florida Governor Spessard L. Holland, Congressman J. Hardin Peterson, and Sarasota Mayor E.A. Smith delivered remarks.
Regarding Judah P. Benjamin Monument. Judah P. Benjamin, a former U.S. Senator from Louisiana, served as the Confederate Attorney General, Secretary of War, and Secretary of State. When Richmond fell in April 1865, he fled to the Deep South with President Jefferson Davis and the Confederate Cabinet. Benjamin left Davis in Georgia and headed to Florida, where he intended to slip out of the country. Fearing arrest for treason, Benjamin disguised himself as a farmer looking to purchase land in Florida. Confederate sympathizers assisted Benjamin as he made his way through the state. One stay included the Gamble Mansion in Ellenton. Finally, Benjamin arranged for Capt. Frederick Tresca to take him to the Bahamas aboard a sixteen-foot sloop. Tresca hid the small boat in Whitaker Bayou in Sarasota. Meanwhile, the former Confederate Secretary of State was smuggled to farmer William

Taia T. Wang, MD, PhD, MSCI
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Infectious Diseases) and of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsLaboratory of Mechanisms in Human Immunity and Disease Pathogenesis
Antibodies are a critical component of host defense. While the importance of humoral immunity has been recognized for decades, substantial gaps in knowledge remain around how antibodies function, and how their function is regulated, in vivo. Our laboratory performs studies designed to fill in these gaps, with the goal of enabling new vaccine and therapeutic strategies to prevent human disease. My interest in this area culminated from training in medicine, RNA virus biology (PhD), and molecular antibody biology (postdoctoral training). The intersection of these topics, viral immunity and disease pathogenesis, is the focus of our work. The essential question driving our research is why a small subset of people develop severe or fatal disease during viral infection while most infections result in a subclinical or mild outcome, even in at-risk populations. Our hypothesis is that the antibody signaling pathways that are engaged during viral infection through Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) are a key driver of these distinct outcomes. We are focused on several major unknowns to address this hypothesis: How are antibody effector functions regulated in vivo and does this change in disease? How do distinct signaling pathways engaged by IgG immune complex-FcγR interactions impact host cell genetic regulation and the ultimate inflammatory/immune response? What are the tissue-specific functions that antibodies engage? How does the heterogeneity in post-translational modifications (PTMs) of human antibodies contribute to heterogeneity in viral immunity?

The Tokyo-based theater company Pappa Tarahumara, named after the Tarahumara Indians of Mexico's Copper Canyon, is known for making large scale productions that employ dramatic sets and unconventional costumes in performances that blur the lines of dance, performance art, theater and music. Director Hiroshi Koike's highly sensual dance theater interpretation of Anton Chekhov's Three Sisters provides a fascinating insight into Japanese culture and its fascination with youth culture. While the company has toured frequently to the US with their large scale productions over the past several years, this intimately scaled production is an unusually simple presentation for the company and will be performed in OtB's Studio Theater. Since its formation in 1982, the company Pappa Tarahumara has offered unique performances under the direction of Hiroshi Koike. Their work is characterized by an Asian sense of time and motion with performers, stage objects, music, lighting, and costume all playing equally important roles in their productions. Part of the New Performance Series.

It was a dark and stormy night — and o! the rain, did it pour — but a fair number of umbrella’d visitors came to Butler tonight for this semester’s Orgo Night. Hm, what had happened this semester? Bwog wondered, who or what will find itself or themselves at the butt of the Marching Band’s jokes? Well, quite frankly, we expected it to be the penis that CUMB brought along, it of Giant Inflatable Penis-Gate-fame, but it just bopped around in the background (see video), evidently the strong and silent type.
Most jokes actually revolved around Obama. According to CUMB, due in large part to his success (coupled with that of Attorney General to be Eric Holder and New York Governor David Paterson), Columbia is now the nation’s “foremost elite black college.” From there on in, things progressed, for the most part, chronologically. Bwog even received a shout-out when talked turned to Obamacain, September’s debate about the merits of service between Obama and “a trusty old white guy with funny arms.”
In the weeks that followed Obamacain, new Secretary of State Hillary Clinton visited the ladies of Barnard, educating them on the things they hold near and dear: sewing, cooking, and gender pay equity. Barnard jokes were liberal in quantity, the most clever among them described an evil plan against Columbia in which BC attempted to convince the world that Columbia is just the New York campus of Yale. A consequence of this evil plot? We might all be forced to play in “rape whistle choirs.” And with that, the Band segued into “I Don’t Wanna Be Sedated.”
ROTC was next up on the CUMB’s hit-list, where discrepancies in the vote were blamed on a one “Lee C.” who, in an act of “meta-terrorism,” allegedly abstained from the vote some 300 times just to demonstrate his right to freedom of expression. The Band also addressed the 4000 students who didn’t bother to vote at all, suggesting that the ballot should have read “yes” “no” and “who gives a fuck? I have three midterms this week!”
And onto the topic of our terrible economy. Columbia’s endowment troubles were noted (though Bwog was shocked there wasn’t a sexual innuendo here!), and so were Dining Services cutbacks, including John Jay’s “sub-prime rib.” There was a special sympathy shout-out to economics majors and their “three summer internships worth of swallowed Lehman Brothers semen.”
Other aspects of the zeitgeist were summarized in a fantastical trip to Health Services, in which PrezBo received a Flintstones Band-Aid for his “PrezBooBoo,” James Franco was diagnosed with unseasonal heat stroke, and students were treated for throwing up green bile and parading around with a cross.
The night ended with a stirring rendition of “Wipe Out” and some sexually explicit mnemonic devices for tomorrow’s Orgo Exam. The Band packed up its merriment and took leave, and with a little shh-ing from residents of 209, Butler transformed back into its natural state, one Giant Inflatable Penis emptier than it had been just moments before.

It’s simple – more people buying organic food means more organic farms. More organic farms means fewer pesticides and more wildlife. What’s not to love?
Drinking organically grown tea and supporting climate friendly farming has some surprisingly significant effects…
Healthy, organic soils can store up to five times more carbon than forests, stopping more CO2 from entering the atmosphere. That’s a really great thing in the fight to slow global warming.
Across the globe, wildlife is becoming extinct up to 10,000 times faster than the natural rate. Organic practises help to prevent this. As an example of the difference organic can make, Clipper green tea comes from organic gardens in India, where positive farming practices have seen the emergence of wild bison and rare orchid species. We think that’s absolutely brilliant and are thrilled to be part of the change!
Organic farmers are only able to use just 20 pesticides made from natural ingredients including citronella and clove oil. Even then, they can only use them under very restricted circumstances. This helps protect insects but also reduces the amount of pesticides entering the water system. Conventional pesticides can cause all sorts of damage once they reach the water system including:
By limiting the kinds and amount of pesticides used, we help avoid these things.
Frankly, there’s no reason not to choose organic tea! It’s better for wildlife and the environment and, arguably best of all, still tastes absolutely delicious.

Or if you don't want to use poison.
Spray the weeds with white vinegar before sun up on a day where there's no rain for 36-48hrs.
For weeds on your paving areas you can just sprinkle a little table salt around the cracks & spray with white vinegar too.
Just get a basic spray bottle if you don't have one already.
Once you see the weeds dying off cover the ground with cardboard & 20mm of mulch, allowing 2" free around the plants you like.

The celebrated composer and trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire hasn’t released an album since 2020′s “on the tender spot of every calloused moment,” having busied himself moving from one house to another in his native Oakland and collaborating on music for the Oakland-set TV series “Blindspotting.”
But that will change with a flurry of record releases and commissioned performances in 2023, beginning this weekend with performances in Chicago on Friday and at Artists for Humanity EpiCenter in South Boston on Saturday, the latter the concluding show in the four-concert jazz festival put on this week by Celebrity Series of Boston (his performance is sold out). The weekend shows will feature Akinmusire’s quartet with pianist Sullivan Fortner, bassist Joe Sanders, and drummer Justin Brown, with special guest Kurt Rosenwinkel on guitar.
From Boston, Akinmusire will head directly to Sweden to rehearse music he composed for the Norrbotton Big Band that will premiere during his residency there in November. In April, his work “Bird and Basquiat: Now’s the Time!,” conceived as a dream encounter between Charlie Parker and Jean-Michel Basquiat, will be performed with an orchestra as part of a Philharmonie de Paris exhibit dedicated to Basquiat.
In May, Akinmusire travels to Minneapolis to premiere “Honey from a winter’s stone” over a two-night residency at the Walker Art Center. That work, a follow-up to his genre-blurring 2018 project “Origami Harvest,” will see him joined by the rapper Kokayi, the Mivos Quartet, drummer Justin Brown, pianist Sam Harris, and key bassist Chiquita Magic. Mary Halvorson may also join the ensemble on guitar.
Then there are the forthcoming recordings. Three trio albums will be released this year by the label (whose identity is being withheld for now) he is moving to after a long association with Blue Note Records. Each album will have a different set of trio mates: guitarist Bill Frisell and drummer Herlin Riley; pianist Kris Davis and drummer Gerald Cleaver; pianist Sullivan Fortner and drummer Tyshawn Sorey. And before those albums drop, he plans to self-release a solo trumpet album he recorded at Saint-Eustache church in Paris.
These opportunities keep coming his way because Akinmusire ranks high among the most gifted and socially conscious composers of his generation. He celebrates Black culture and beloved artistic mentors. He also mourns and protests injustice: Beginning with “My Name Is Oscar,” the tribute to Oscar Grant on “When the Heart Emerges Glistening,” his four studio albums for Blue Note each included a piece referencing the growing roll call of Black bodies that led to the Black Lives Matter protests.
“Now that I’m 40, I can look back at different phases that I’ve had,” says Akinmusire, reached at home recently. “I think I’m really just speaking of my life. I’m a Black man in America. A topic has to be survival and the Black body and all those things that I experience every day. That is a common thread in my music, because that is a common thread in my life.”
“I’ve always been thinking about performance as resistance and as as a political statement,” he continues, “meaning my body on a stage. And all the things that it took for that to happen.”
“Who gets to speak for Black people? Have those people had the experience, even if they look like me? Rarely do [those who do] get a platform to speak out to people who are not Black about the Black experience. So I’m trying on the small platform that I have to speak about the Black experience as a Black person who’s still experiencing it. Part of the reason I moved back to Oakland was I can’t just be out here talking about this and not living it.”
“I don’t have any other choice. I really have tried to write tunes that are not about that. But it’s still in there.”
Akinmusire was speaking the day following the death of the legendary composer and saxophonist Wayne Shorter. Akinmusire, like Shorter, is a virtuosic instrumentalist who prioritizes music itself over technical prowess.
Was Akinmusire’s attitude toward composing and performing influenced by Shorter?
“I’ve spent a lot of time with Wayne over the years,” answers Akinmusire. “And I think the thing that I got most from Wayne was that he and Herbie [Hancock] both taught me how to chant, how to meditate. And I think that that’s related to the music.”
“With knowledge, I feel like intuition is the highest form,” he explains. “I think the same thing about music. So when we start talking about technique, that’s still living in the physical world. I think the step beyond that is getting to what the music wants and seeing the music as an almost living thing, and trying to tap into this sort of universal consciousness, where we can hear what the music wants, what the universe wants. And I think that’s when these magical moments happen in a band, when everybody tunes in and plays the same thing for two seconds. I think that’s really my goal — to play what the music says to play.”
As for this weekend’s shows, “I’m thinking a lot these days about just doing things that are fun and inspiring,” says Akinmusire. “And so I just dreamt up this crazy band and thought, ‘If everybody’d say yes, that would be amazing.’ They did. That’s what we’re gonna do. Kurt Rosenwinkel was one of my heroes. I’ve never played with him. I played with Mark [Turner], I played with Brad [Mehldau]. I played with a lot of my heroes, but Kurt I haven’t played with, and he’s somebody that I know we all have been inspired by. So it was really just to say thank you to Kurt.”
“It’s really important to give people their flowers when you can, and it doesn’t have to be at the end of their lives. It can be in the middle of their lives. It can be when they can still see the flowers, and you can still play with them and hug them and have access to them. It doesn’t matter what age they are. So I want to give Kurt his flowers. I just did a thing with Ron Carter, to say thank you to Ron Carter. I did a thing with Josh Redman. I’m doing a project with Bill [Frisell] and Herlin Riley.
“All these things are to just say thank you to people, and to acknowledge their influence and make the continuum of all of this, and to hopefully influence younger musicians, younger generations to do the same.”

Sunday mornings we can't seem to crave anything but German pancakes. Even my picky boys beg for them! But when you wake up starving you dont want to wait 30-40 minutes for breakfast to bake! So one extremely impatient morning I tried the out in a muffin pan and they worked beautifully! individual german pancakes recipe comes out so hot and fluffy it's perfect for any breakfast or brunch.
How to make this individual german pancake recipe
1.The Pan. You can use either ramekins or a muffin tin to make you individual german pancakes. You'll want to put about 1 TBS of butter in the bottom. I also like to quickly spray them with a cooking spray to ensure there is no sticking.
This recipe will fill about 8 ramekins and 18 muffin tins.
2.The batter. The key to having perfect german pancake batter is the eggs. German pancake recipes call for a lot of eggs, and they need to be beaten for 2 minutes. You can use an electric beater or a blender. I love to use my blendtec.
Ingredients matter- we always use the best ingredients! The batter, although sweet needs salt to help with the chemicals and also taste. Using Redmond Real Salt is the best of the best! It's full of natural minerals and mined right here in the US.
3.Bake You'll bake these bad boys until they are risen, firm in the middle and a nice golden brown.
We love to serve them with fruit, maple syrup, homemade jam, or powder sugar.

UCSB faculty pianist Natasha Kislenko and guests Richie Hawley, Matthew Swihart, Chavdar Parashkevov and Tali Morgulis will present music by Georges Auric, Louis Durey, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Francis Poulenc, and Germaine Tailleferre
The UC Santa Barbara Department of Music will present a virtual chamber music recital Springtime in France: Music of Les Six, 6 p.m. Friday, May 7, as a YouTube premiere on the Music Department’s YouTube channel youtube.com/c/UCSantaBarbaraDepartmentofMusic.
The concert will feature UCSB faculty member and pianist Natasha Kislenko and guests, including clarinetist Richie Hawley, trumpeter Matthew Swihart, violinist Chavdar Parashkevov, and pianist Tali Morgulis.
The program will include solo and chamber works by the members of Les Six — Arthur Honegger, Georges Auric, Darius Milhaud, Germaine Tailleferre, Francis Poulenc and Louis Durey.
Following ideas of the well-known poet and playwright Jean Cocteau and composer Erik Satie, the group of young composer friends came together in their negative reaction to weighty German romanticism and complex writings of Debussy and Ravel in the years post-World War I.
They took their inspiration from street and cafe music in Paris, as well as the transparent writing style of the old masters, such as Jean-Philippe Rameau and Jean-Baptiste Lully. In the 1920s, the music of Les Six appeared light, witty, sardonic, and irresistibly joyful.
“The idea to perform music by Les Six came quite spontaneously,” said Kislenko. “To me, the early 20th century is one of the most fascinating and diverse time periods in art and music. In the past, I put several programs together featuring composers from that time. So, I started looking for new ideas …
“I remembered Les Six from my music history classes. The names of composers came back easily, though I only played and knew works by Milhaud and Poulenc, and some Honegger. Three others were a complete mystery.
“I am fortunate to have come across a wonderful book by Robert Shapiro, where I learned so much about every one of those six. The group did not exist long, each composer had a very unique journey and musical path, but their friendship and collegiality remained strong throughout the century.”
“I was very lucky that several wonderful musicians were willing to join me in this virtual recital project,” Kislenko said. “We have just completed all the recordings and had a lot of fun, particularly enjoying the lightness of the musical spirit and elegance of the selections.”
Kislenko has frequently collaborated with the artists on this program, both in the concert hall and recording studio. The Kislenko/Parashkevov duo has presented recitals and concerto performances all over the world since forming the duo in 2010, and recorded two albums — Russian Sonatas in 2011 and Beethoven, Brahms, Mahler in 2018.
Kislenko and Hawley have served on the Music Academy of the West Summer Festival Faculty, Kislenko (also an alumna, 2001) since 2004 and Hawley since 2005. Throughout the years, they have performed multiple compositions in faculty concerts.
Kislenko and Swihart, assistant professor at Nicholls State University in Louisiana, collaborated during their studies at Stony Brook University some 20 years ago, and now meet again to perform upon Kislenko’s invitation.
Morgulis, associate professor of piano at the University of Houston’s Moores School of Music, has invited Kislenko to give several masterclasses for her students; the pianists performed together for the first time in fall 2019.
Natasha said this program could have been called “Natasha Kislenko and friends” for the strong ties with all four performers, and she is very grateful they were willing to jump on board and join on her exploration journey to France.
The May 7 program will include Arthur Honegger’s “Intrada” for trumpet and piano; Georges Auric’s “Five Bagatelles” for piano four hands; Darius Milhaud’s “Saudades do Brasil” for violin and piano; Germaine Tailleferre’s “Deux Valses“ and “Toccata” for two pianos; and Francis Poulenc’s “Sonata” for clarinet and piano; as well as “L’Album Les Six,” which features solo piano works by each member of Les Six.
The direct link to the video of the performance will be available on the event page on the Department of Music’s website the week of the event. For more information, visit music.ucsb.edu/news/event/2204.

The major European countries have suspended the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine, because of worries about blood clots. Blood clots can lead to deep vein thrombosis - or worse.
AstraZeneca have denied that there is a problem (they would say that, wouldn't they?) and so has the WHO.
The company had said the 15 incidences of deep vein thrombosis and 22 events of pulmonary embolism reported among those given the vaccine, was “much lower than would be expected to occur naturally in a general population”.
Blood clots do happen naturally. I had one a couple of decades ago; my knee joint was under so much blood pressure because of that, I couldn't bend the knee. The upshot was that I got tested, and it turns out that I have genetic factors that make my blood clotting better than average. That's good if you're chasing down mammoths for food, but not so good is you live a sedentary modern life.
One thing that is important, is to notice that vaccine testing doesn't end with the phase three trials, but continues during the vaccine use.
So is the AstraZeneca vaccine safe? I'm not going to guess. All I can do, is follow the research on this. But this is a real shot in the arm for the anti-vaxxers.
Also - the EU has launched a legal action against the UK on Northern Ireland. They are claiming that we are breaching the agreement that Boris signed.
This because we have, unilaterally, extended the "grace period".

Every year, the Perseids Meteor Shower takes place in the second week of August. Anyone who wishes to see it is in luck, especially those who live around Wasatch County. We have compiled a list of our favorite places to view the Perseids weekend.
If you are going camping or just want a good picnic spot, try Brighton Ski Resort. It has an altitude level high enough that the sky will be dark enough to see meteors and it’s not bad for getting away from city lights. One negative is if it’s cold out, but it will still be much warmer than being down in town. There are also several restaurants on-site so you won’t go hungry or thirsty while watching the Perseid meteor shower.
The other option, Quality Inn Downtown Salt Lake City offers amazing views in every direction—including downtown SLC. This location is within walking distance of The Gateway Mall , allowing guests to grab food before they head up to their rooms/condo units. Guests can also walk to the Gallivan Center which is an awesome view of Salt Lake City’s night sky.
The rooms are extremely affordable, and the location offers a spectacular view of the Perseids Meteor Shower. Our prime location makes us ideal for visitors interested in viewing the Perseids Meteor Shower this coming summer!
Duncan Town Park is also another great Perseids meteor shower location. It has beautiful scenery and plenty of space for you and many friends to camp out comfortably. The Perseid meteor shower is one of those things that people like to spend time with their family doing, especially since it will be dark early enough so that everyone can see what they’re looking at without suffering from insomnia. There are restrooms available at Duncan Town Park if you need to use one. The Perseids Meteor Shower is caused by the Perseus constellation passing close to Earth, and all of its members leave visible streaks. This year we are expecting a good meteor shower peak from midnight on August 12th into the morning of August 13th.
The Perseid meteor shower is named after Perseus in Greek mythology as they appear to come from that direction. They move across the sky at approximately 37 miles per second! Make sure to take lots of pictures because you will not want to miss out on such an awesome experience!
Brandon Hepner, Owner of Rock Run Physical Therapy, a Wasatch County Utah business. Is excited to take his kids up to the mountains to view the event! “We try our best to get out as much as we can as a family. The Perseids Event is one of those things that we look forward to each year!”…

Nara was the capital of Japan from 710 to 794, also known as the Nara period, before moving to the capital Kyoto. It is on the UNESCO World Heritage list with its Ancient Nara Monuments.
Dog figurines and miniature tea dishes excavated in this ancient Japanese capital are among the exhibits at the free archaeological exhibition held in the city until the end of March.
The exhibition, which began Feb. 15 at the Nara City Archaeological Research Center, features artifacts that the center’s researchers unearthed this fiscal year. Dog figurines and miniature tea utensils were found near an ancient grave where a child is believed to have been buried.
The Akishino-amidadani ruins in the city’s Akishino district are believed to have been a tomb since the burial mound period, and items unearthed include human bones cremated in the Muromachi period (1336-1573), among other items. A miniature “hagama”, or wide-brimmed pot, was unearthed near a stone monument engraved with a posthumous Buddhist name and the date “10 October Tensho 17 (1589)”. It contained a small pot and figurines of dogs whose tails and other parts showed features of a Japanese breed.
Satoko Nagano, a 41-year-old researcher at the center, commented, “A child’s grave with burial goods in that period is rare nationally, and we can imagine with a sense of reality that they were the toys the kid loved. I hope these spark people’s interest.”
What is Hagama?
It means, broad-brimmed cooking pot.

Lithuanian Monastry featured on HBO’s Catherine the Great wins EUFCN Location Award 2020
The Pažaislis Church and Monastery Complex in Kaunas, Lithuania wins the fourth edition of the EUFCN Location Award, the award for best European film and TV location organised by the European Film Commisisons Network (EUFCN), in collaboration with Cineuropa.
Found on Kaunas Lagoon Peninsula, the monastery is one of the most impressive examples of Baroque architecture in North-Eastern Europe. The complex had never previously hosted filming of this scale before the HBO and Sky Atlantic miniseries Catherine the Great.
Lithuania has seen a surge in popularity amongst film and TV productions, with Netflix Stranger Things and Young Wallander, and HBO miniseries Chernobyl all choosing to film in the country that has a 30% tax incentive for productions.
Kaunas Film Office representatives Aurelijus Silkinis and Goda Gajauskaite received the award during the EUFCN Location Award Ceremony at the European Film Market 2021. “We are really glad to receive this award. There is no doubt that the EUFCN Location Award will contribute to revealing the uniqueness of Kaunas region even more and will increase the international visibility not only in the field of film production, but also in film tourism. We would like to thank HBO, SKY Atlantic, director Philip Martin, film producers and the entire crew.”
The HBO miniseries stars Helen Mirren as Catherine II of Russia, the country's longest ruling female leader. The Monastery was used to help recreate the empress' splendid and tumultuous reign from 1762 until 1796. Pažaislis was transformed from a Catholic church into an Orthodox Church by the art department with the utmost care and delicacy.
“EUFCN represents a window into filming Europe for foreign producers, and as such, the Location Award is a powerful way how to focus on stunning and remarkable filming friendly locations,” says Pavlina Zipkova, co-president of the EUFCN. “It also helps us to spread the word about the work of film commissioners, who really are mediators and negotiators between governmental institutions and filmmakers. If all that work results in such beautiful locations put on the screen, it is a great feeling,” adds Zipkova.
During the first phase of the competition, EUFCN film commission members had the opportunity to submit one location from a film, a TV series or a documentary shot in their country and released between July 2nd 2019 and September 20th 2020. A five-member jury of distinguished professionals composed by Lori Balton (International Location Scout, Co-Founder and former President of the LMGI), Valerio Caruso (Director of Cineuropa), Matthijs Wouter Knol (Director of the European Film Academy, former Director of the European Film Market), Julian Newby (Founder and Editorial Director of Boutique Editions Ltd.), and Julie-Jeanne Régnault (Secretary General at EFAD – European Film Agencies), selected the 5 locations in the shortlist.
The general public had then the chance to vote for their favourite on the Cineuropa website. One lucky name picked from the voters will experience the location by spending two nights in Monte Pacis, the elegant hospitality complex in the Pažaislis Monastery.
The full shortlist of the 2020 EUFCN Location Awards includes castles, monasteries and lakes across European filming destinations such as Italy, Macedonia to Slovakia that were featured in productions including Dracula, Charlie's Angels and Curon. The shortlist can be viewed here.
Past winners include the Island of Corfu, Greece for its role the TV series The Durrells, El Hierro in the Canary Islands, Spain that features in the thriller series of the same name and the east German city of Gorlitz, which was voted the Location of the Decade after its use in Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Greece and Cyprus have expressed concerns over the proposal by the EU Commission to ban imports of oil from Russia, Cypriot President Anastasiades said on Friday.
The two countries are concerned over a planned EU ban on transporting Russian oil. The EU plans call for a ban on purchases and prohibit the shipping industry based in EU member countries from handling Russian oil. Greece and Cyprus have the largest shipping fleets in the 27 member EU, and host large ship-management centers.
“It’s necessary to take into account concerns of Greece, Malta, and of course Cyprus in specific matters relating to the sanctions,” Anastasiades told reporters in Athens.
Anastasiades, who earlier met with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, said this was a “common position” of both.
“We are both clear. We are against the Russian invasion and of course in favor of sanctions. But these sanctions should be targeted, and not selective in serving some member states and leaving others exposed,” Anastasiades said, according to Reuters.
Germany’s Süddeutsche Zeitung reported that the Greek representative in the EU complained about the great pressure exerted on Greek shipping and warned that, for example, Asian rivals could pick up the orders to transport Russian oil to destinations around the globe.
EU Commission outlines plan to ban the import of Russian oil
The EU Commission announced plans on Wednesday to ban the import of oil from Russia by the end of 2022 and to sanction Russians who committed war crimes in Ukraine.
“Putin must pay a high price for his brutal aggression,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said as she unveiled a sixth set of proposed EU sanctions, which will require unanimous approval from member states before they can come into effect, against Russia.
Von der Leyen said the EU would seek to end its dependency on Russian oil, a major source of revenue for the Kremlin. Crude oil would be phased out in six months and refined products by the end of 2022, she said.
“Let´s be clear: it will not be easy,” cautioned Von der Leyen, “But we simply have to work on it. We will make sure that we phase out Russian oil in an orderly fashion to maximize pressure on Russia while minimizing the impact on our economies.”

New York City Coastal-urban Meteorology
The goal for this three-year project is to use NASA Earth-science datasets within the WRF Model to improve the quality of meteorological forecasts for the New York City and surrounding area.
The meteorological forecasts will be directly input into decision support systems (DSS) used by emergency managers within the New York City (NYC) area, enabling them to provide more accurate information about the transport and dispersion (T&D) characteristics of airborne releases of toxic material. Local stakeholders in the NYC area include the Office of Emergency Management, the Police and Fire Departments, and the Port Authority. These agencies use one of two DSSs: the Department of Energy (DOE) National Atmospheric Release Advisory Center's (NARAC) system, and the Hazard Prediction and Assessment Capability (HPAC) developed and operated by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA).
Terra MODIS captured the remains of this storm spread mostly in a horizontal band across (west to northeast) north-central Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.

- Serves: 2
- Cook Time: 10 minutes
- Prep Time: 25 minutes
- Effort: easy
For the hollandaise
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 10 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- dash tabasco, or hot pepper sauce
- 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning
For the eggs
- oil, for frying
- 1 onion, sliced into rings
- 2 slices gammon
- 2 tsp white or cider vinegar
- 4 eggs
- 2 English muffins, sliced in half
- butter, for spreading
- basil, to garnish
Tips and Suggestions
The key things to remember when making hollandaise is that you must not overheat it, as that will cook the yolks, and that you should add the melted butter in a very slow trickle.
The unalterable rule for hollandaise is that it must never get more than hand-hot or it will curdle.
If the sauce becomes too thick it can be thinned by whisking in a little hot water or ice cubes. The same remedy will help a sauce that begins to separate.
If your hollandaise starts to thicken into solid lumps, then its beyond repair. This is caused by over heating the mixture so the egg yolks start to cook and coagulate. Instead of hollandaise, youll have scrambled eggs - but you can still spread it on your toast.
1. For the hollandaise: put the egg yolks and 1/4 tsp salt in a blender, then blend on medium to medium-high speed for 20-30 seconds, adding the lemon juice while its blending. The eggs should become lighter in colour. Turn the blender down to its lowest setting, then slowly dribble in the hot melted butter while continuing to blend. Taste for salt and acidity then mix in the hot sauce and more lemon juice if necessary. Add a touch of Cajun seasoning, then transfer the hollandaise to a container you can use for pouring and set it on a warm but not hot place, on or near the hob.
2. Heat a large skillet on medium-low heat with a little oil. Put in the onion rings keeping them whole and gammon and fry them both slowly, turning occasionally, until the gammon and onions are browned on both sides, about 5-8 minutes. Use tongs or a fork to remove the gammon and onions from the pan, then lay them on kitchen paper to absorb the excess fat.
3. While the gammon is cooking, two-thirds fill a large saucepan with water, bring it to a boil and pour in the vinegar. Bring the water to a boil again, then lower the heat to a bare simmer. Carefully drop in the eggs one at a time to poach them. As soon as all the eggs are in the poaching water, begin toasting the muffins. If you cant get all the muffins toasted by the time the eggs are ready, gently remove the eggs from the poaching water and set them in a bowl.
4. To assemble each eggs benedict, butter one side of an English muffin. Top with the gammon and onions. Put a poached egg on top of the gammon and pour some hollandaise over. Sprinkle over some Cajun seasoning and serve at once, garnished with basil.

Cooling fan air volume and a cooling fan wind a correlation
In daily life we come into contact with the cooling fan, and weigh the cooling fan cooling to two important indexes is a cooling fan air volume and air pressure. Then the cooling fan air volume and a cooling fan? What's the relationship between air pressure. A cooling fan air volume is refers to the product rate of fan ventilation area is flat. When a certain ventilation area, the plane speed, the greater the cooling fan air volume is larger. And a cooling fan air volume, the greater the heat air is, the greater the air at the transfer of the event can take weeks to take more heat and cooling effect is better. The plane speed is constant, the fan under the wheel diameter, the greater the ventilation area, the greater the cooling fan air volume is bigger. Common in order to stop the normal ventilation, flow resistance within the schedule needs to control the cooling fan, cooling fan must resist the cooling fan to supply air resistance pressure, the pressure is the wind cooling fan. To accomplish the purpose of the cooling fan air supply and demand have static pressure and dynamic pressure. Total pressure to the algebraic sum of static pressure and dynamic pressure, total pressure is given by the cooling fan in the total pressure increase, the cooling fan of the total pressure difference between exports and imports. In practical life application, nominal maximum wind quantity is not the practice of hot piece of delivery, and ventilation to strong doesn't mean airflow. In the air, the air flow in its activity way will meet fan heat collection or element block, the impedance will limit the free air circulation. Increase the air volume, air pressure will decrease.

Thanks Ross. That helps. I have been in real estate development for about 15 years on the commercial side. I've developed and owned a number of WalMart and Target shopping centers as well as grocery anchored centers but I am just now getting interested in the residential real estate side as well.... More Plus the ground up development business that I have most of my experience in is becoming more and more difficult so I am interested in learning more about buying, rehabing and flipping existing commercial buildings and shopping centers as well. I have a lot of experience in the industry but very little in this particular sector so I'm gathering information. Thanks again! Less

This is just an everyday door at work… with my work keys in them. I had some grand ideas for this shot… but the image in my head was much harder to achieve than I first expected. I do like the look of this shot though… taken from an angle most of us don’t see anymore. Kind of a kid’s eye view.
I love what Vicky has done for this week’s update, as she has some really sexy keys in her collection. Yes, keys can be sexy. Like spoons.
I have to apologize for the lateness of this photo hunt entry, as well. Domestic bits have beaten me down lately it seems. I have yet to get those floss bundles together as well, and have at least made the solemn vow to get my ass in gear this weekend.
You hear me, ass?
