Impunity for gender-based violence persisted with many femicides and attacks against LGBTI people going unpunished. Abortion remained difficult to access in many parts of the country, despite its recent decriminalization. Investigations into several key cases of disappearances and deaths in police custody did not progress. Officials did not take measures to improve the integration of refugees and asylum seekers.
The country remained mired in an economic and social crisis. In the first half of 2022, 36.5% of the population was living in poverty.
In September, vice-president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner was the target of an assassination attempt.
In September, the UN Independent Expert on the Effects of Foreign Debt visited Argentina and expressed the need to ensure that its international debt obligations do not compromise human rights.
In November, the Special Rapporteur on Extrajudicial, Summary or Arbitrary Executions found that Argentina did not effectively investigate and prevent unlawful deaths. He concluded that “victims often belong to the most disadvantaged and vulnerable sections of the population… while those responsible enjoy impunity”.
Women´s and LGBTI people’s rights
Violence against women, girls and LGBTI people
According to figures collected by NGOs, during 2022, 233 gender-based killings were recorded, 91% of them in domestic settings.
Despite the public attention given to the fight against gender-based violence, prosecution rates for sexual violence remained low and only 15.5% of reported cases resulted in convictions, according to the National Prosecutor’s Office.
In October, after more than four years of collaboration between the Argentine, Brazilian and Nicaraguan justice systems, actor Juan Darthés testified in the trial in Brazil in which he is charged with the rape of Thelma Fardin. A final ruling in the case was deferred to 2023.
Women and LGBTI journalists faced increased violence and attacks. At least two journalists who defend women’s human rights filed complaints with the courts for online harassment and violence. At the end of the year their cases remained pending.
The fate and whereabouts of Tehuel de la Torre, a 21-year-old transgender man missing since March 2021, remained unknown. No independent, effective, impartial, trans-feminist investigation into the case was carried out.
Sexual and reproductive rights
Significant obstacles persisted in accessing abortion services despite the approval of a law in 2020 decriminalizing and legalizing abortion within the first 14 weeks of pregnancy. Authorities did not carry out any campaigns to disseminate information about the law.
Miranda Ruiz, a doctor from Tartagal, Salta Province, was finally acquitted after having been criminalized for assisting in a legal abortion.
Ana, a 30-year-old woman who had had a miscarriage, was finally released after having been accused of aggravated homicide and spending eight months in prison in Corrientes Province.
According to the latest available official data released in 2022, at least three children aged under 15 gave birth daily in 2020. Despite a decrease in the number of pregnancies among children and adolescents aged between 10 and 19 between 2016 and 2020, more than 50,000 people in this age group gave birth during 2020.
Comprehensive sex education
By the end of the year litigation remained pending against a resolution passed by Chaco Province’s Ministry of Education in May allowing a teacher training conference to contain content dismissing abortion rights and children’s rights, and pathologizing sexual diversity.
Excessive use of force
At the end of the year, a ruling against the 13 police officers accused in the case of Valentino Blas Correas, a 17-year-old boy from Córdoba Province who was shot and killed by police in August 2021, remained pending.
On 5 June, Daiana Soledad Abregú was found dead in a police cell in the town of Laprida, Buenos Aires Province. Although initial examinations suggested that she took her own life, a second autopsy dismissed the hypothesis of suicide. The five police officials charged with aggravated homicide remained at liberty.
A bill on a Comprehensive Approach to Institutional Violence by Police Officials in the Security and Penitentiary Services remained pending before the Lower House at the end of the year.
Freedom of assembly
The Jujuy provincial government introduced a bill to amend the provincial constitution and limit social protest, prohibiting roadblocks and the “usurpation of public space”. The discussion of the reform was deferred to 2023.
Trials before ordinary civilian courts continued for crimes against humanity committed under the 1976-1983 military regime. Between 2006 and December 2022, 286 rulings were handed down, bringing the total number of convictions to 1,088 and acquittals to 166.
The investigation into the disappearance and death of Facundo Astudillo Castro in 2020 made no significant progress. He was last seen at a police checkpoint in Buenos Aires Province.
By the end of the year, the investigation into the disappearance and death of Santiago Maldonado had made no progress. His body was found in 2017 in a river on Mapuche territory in Chubut Province, 78 days after a violent raid by the Argentine National Gendarmerie.
Concerns remained over the lack of institutional public policies on effective searches for missing persons, and investigations into alleged enforced disappearances were not carried out.
Indigenous peoples’ rights
Indigenous peoples continued to face serious difficulties in accessing collective land rights. The National Institute for Indigenous Affairs only completed 43% of the survey of Indigenous territories mandated by the Emergency Law 26.160. Evictions of Indigenous people from their territories continued despite a prohibition mandated by the same law.
Formosa Province authorities denied the pre-colonial existence of the Nivaclé people and thus refused to issue birth certificates and identity cards to its people, especially the elderly. According to civil society organizations, about 30% of them remained without identity documents, violating their right to identity and putting them at risk of statelessness.
Refugees’ and migrants’ rights
In May, national authorities established a community sponsorship programme for people fleeing social unrest and natural disasters in Central America, the Caribbean and Mexico. However, people in need of international protection for other reasons and from other countries were not included.
Authorities suspended the relocation of new people in need of international protection under the community sponsorship programme for Syrians (the “Syria Programme”). Government authorities failed to pass regulations pursuant to the refugee law to allow asylum seekers and refugees greater access to basic rights such as education, work and healthcare.
Failure to tackle climate crisis and environmental degradation
Congress failed to enact the Wetlands Law Bill, which had been pending approval for more than a decade, despite intense heatwaves, droughts and fires in large areas of the country, which threatened both land and livelihoods.

The Classiness of Sporting Designer Urban Clothing
Working adults and school children both tend to think of how people look at them, mainly when they frequent such areas, where they are with people who wear custom made clothing and branded ones as well.
Designer urban clothes are what these adolescents look for, and in actuality most of the time they love wearing designer apparel; indoor and outside. Some may perhaps ask what is so remarkable concerning designer clothing; with the exception of the price tag which distinguishes you from all the other people out there.
Folks wear designer attire not because of the price or look, but because most designer urban apparel is especially agreeable to look at, likened to everyday designer clothes which at times combine colors incorrectly and spoil the design.
This apparel is designed by skilled and professional designers and folks from branding background. Branding background basically refers to folks who give identity or brand to someone or something.
Designer urban clothing could be considered biological owing to the designs and the colors. In general the colors are pleasingly natural, and they don't have an effect on your skin.
The shades of colors are not so bright that they can reflect the sunlight and not so dark to absorb the sunlight and heat your body, but instead the colors are nicely mixed and designed especially to understand the wishes of the wearer.
Almost all of the designer urban clothing is especially adaptable portraying the large sized people in a extra flattering manner. This is to say that both folks of slight size and large size can wear them. For instance, the colors or the modern designs involved give a thin person more volume, and a chubby individual to look slimmer.
Various urban youth and working women share a consistent impression of style during their business hours; that is to feel good in really gorgeous and sexy attire, so that they would look happy and be happy.
Designer urban clothing makers really understand this need and most often the clothes have a lively look despite the fact that they contain plain colors rather than shiny ones.
Some of the designer's clothes are made in such a way that you can very nearly wear it in any way imaginable, be it inside out, front to back or even pulled to the side.

In this very space not more than two months ago, Sand and I reviewed the so called movie The Expendables. We avoided the use of any profanity, although that was more the result of rigorous editing than intent. We did our level best to warn people. The movie did go on to be a reasonable success at the box office, raking in $225 million dollars or so, but we believe that our efforts in fact prevented it from unseating Avatar as the highest grossing picture of all time.
Such is the power we critics can wield.
Today, we went to see RED, the newest vehicle for Bruce Willis. THIS is the movie that The Expendables was supposed to be. It is a light hearted look at the cop/secret agent films. The story revolves around a group of retired CIA agents drawn back into the fray for one last case, this time to figure out who is trying to kill them. As it turns out, it is the CIA itself that is hunting them down, and the old gang has to figure out why.
This is of course first and foremost a Bruce Willis film. It is the bazillioneth time we've seen this character in a movie -- it is David Addison from the TV show Moonlighting, or John McClane from the Die Hard movies, or Korben Dallas from The Fifth Element (my favorite). Of course, if you don't like Bruce, this could present a problem, but I've always found Bruce to be very entertaining.
Joining Bruce is a strong cast. Don't know if it's coincidence, or if Mr. Willis "plays well with others" or what, but there always seem to be some remarkable performances from the other actors in Bruce's movies -- Cybill Shepherd, Gary Oldman, Milla Jovovitch, Alan Rickman have all turned in truly memorable performances opposite Bruce in the past, and the young Haley Joel Osment garnered an Oscar nomination for his role opposite Bruce in The Sixth Sense. This film is no exception. Morgan Freeman is delightful as usual, Karl Urban is convincing and entertaining, Helen Mirren is surprising and sophisticated in an uncharacteristic role.
Mary-Louise Parker and John Malkovitch give the most pleasantly surprising performances however. Ms. Parker plays a innocent bystander who get gets swept up in the spy stuff by virtue of her acquaintance with Bruce. She is flighty, quirky, and very funny. John Malkovitch plays a character that, as a result of a government experiment that exposed him to daily doses of LSD for eleven years, is just a wee bit strange. I personally think it is Malkovitch's most memorable performance.
With a PG-13 rating, this film could even be suitable for kids (not tiny ones) with suitable guidance from Mom or Dad that the Wile E. Coyote like violence is pure slapstick, not real, and you should never blow up anybody at home.
You may have guessed at this point that I liked this film. I do. It's fun, it's entertaining, it's worth the money I spent on it. This of course means that, now having my endorsement, America will throng to the theaters, clogging the entrances and fight for two seats together anywhere they can.
At least I hope so. I wish this film well. If you get a chance, go see it.
Like Bernie, after the ridiculous film, The Expendables, I wasn't about to go see another action film without consulting IMDb.com. The early preview-reviews for RED were mixed, but it did assure me that the actors I saw in the trailer in the movie would actually be in the movie. That meant that Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, and Dame Helen Mirren really would be part of the action. And that said, who wouldn't want to see Helen Mirren set loose with a big automatic weapon? RED was a must-see.
Easy plot. Retired super agent Frank Moses, in his cozy little house, entertains himself by talking on the phone regularly with the woman who processes his retirement check. He likes her. She loves to hear his voice on the phone, as she is utterly heart-crushingly bored with her job and her life. Unfortunately, when an Evil Bad Guy decides to kill everyone who was involved in the mop-up of an Evil Bad Event years and years ago, Sarah the office girl is also targeted just for being a chum of the super agent, played, of course, by Bruce Willis. Frank and Sarah take off on the run, one step ahead of the CIA, recruiting some of Frank's old agent buddies along the way.
I love Bruce Willis and his films, even the ones that did poorly. Like John Wayne, he always plays himself, and that's the character I enjoy seeing. No other hero is as annoying to the bad guys as Bruce Willis is. He is the classic Bugs Bunny of action films.
Helen Mirren's presence was a bit of a leap for me, when I saw the previews. I just wasn't sure she could pull off the action role. Wouldn't she be a bit clumsy with the weaponry? No, no, she was not. She was beautiful, elegant, and smooth. She didn't "try too hard" -- she didn't look out of place in the role. She is gooooood.
The "bad guy" in charge of hunting down the old coot agents was played by Karl Urban. Now I didn't know him from Adam when he was in the Lord of the Rings trilogy of movies, but I loved his performance as Dr. McCoy in Star Trek (Let's be fair: I loved his portrayal of DeForest Kelley's Dr. McCoy). I wasn't sure he could pull off being the bad guy. A pleasant surprise, his "bad" character, Cooper, changed over the course of his pursuit, became less arrogant, less cold, more humble ... but ... was really annoyed by Frank Moses, as well he should be. The acting had depth. I would not mind seeing Karl Urban again in action roles ... he can be very easy on the eyes.
Stealing the show, however, was John Malkovich, as ex-agent and nutcase Marvin Boggs. He put in a magnificent Looney Tunes performance that surely makes RED memorable.
Some of the action was downright silly, but it was supposed to be. I felt a little guilty at laughing hard at violence, but Bernie reminded me that this depiction of violence was more like the Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote variety. It's a dangerous mix, the cartoon universe and advanced weaponry, but the sight gags had the audience laughing out loud.
I know that this is one we will own and repeatedly enjoy on DVD.

Discovery Gold Standard
Our tours are designed specifically for photographers – typically a step beyond what other tour operators offer… therefore destinations are chosen based on our ability to offer the highest level of expertise, on all fronts, for our guests.
Our passion is to create extraordinary cultural discoveries – through people, cuisine, art, architecture and more – to compliment your unmatched photographic experience.

Fjords of the Untamed North
Lofoten Norway…where do we begin…
From the moment your plane breaks through the clouds on its final approach into the small regional airport of Leknes, you realize the dramatic beauty and incredible diversity of the archipelago of Lofoten. It’s as if the Norse gods carefully planned each detail of what makes this small slice of our planet so breathtaking and unique. The perfect storm of coincidences starts with its northern location. Lofoten lies between the 68° and 69° parallels north, placing it in the arctic circle, known for freezing temperatures and midnight sun. However, you may not even need your sub-zero parka as Lofoten is warmed by the gulf stream, keeping it a comfortable 27°-37° Fahrenheit (-3°- +4° Celcius) during our tour. The days start growing longer in February as well and the sun arches low across the sky, providing the perfect light for landscape photography all day long!
And the landscapes…words cannot describe them, but we’ll do our best. Chiselled peaks rise from the clear waters of the Norwegian sea as if they were summoned by Odin himself, creating a maze of inlets and fjords at every turn. These seemingly endless mountains of dark stone outlined by fresh white snow serve as the quintessential backdrop of each Lofoten landscape.
Photography tour guides
Standing on the rocky shores of stone polished from millennia of crashing waves, you can imagine the sails of Viking Longships passing by, returning from a voyage of exploration or conquest. As we venture to the southern regions of Lofoten, we are transported back in time to the red fisherman cabins used for hundreds of years by the Nordic cod fisherman. We not only will capture many of these small fisherman villages during our stay but will also be staying in them as well! Of course, they will have all the modern conveniences you’d expect to keep you warm and comfortable after a long day of shooting.
We’ve explored the fjords, beaches, towns and coastlines of Lofoten and found an endless stream of photographic opportunities. Join us and together we will traverse the Nordic countryside in search of wonder, chasing auroras, and basking in the greatness of this land.

what our guests have to say
The team at Discovery photo tours had put together a truly amazing and life-altering trip, and I was only on the scouting tour! The locations, the guides, the quality and of course the photo ops, were truly top class. Even better, these guys are genuinely talented, humble and helpful.
The trip to Tanzania had it all. Animals, wonderful accommodation, an excellent and knowledgeable guide, organisation (it just ran smoothly!) and a small group of strangers who have now probably become lifelong friends with a common passion. The companionship, laughter, and fun cannot be underestimated.
This trip changed my life and I aim to do a trip with Discovery Photo tours each year, or every second year at worst. Book a tour, you will not be disappointed.
Leaders: Patrick & Ken
Ken Kaminesky is a star amongst photo tour leaders. I had the pleasure of traveling with him twice, first to Jordan and then to Japan. He showed enthusiasm and passion for both photography and the countries we visited. Ken is one of the most friendly and fun people I know. And yet, he is organized and ready with a solid plan for getting the best shots in the best light possible. I also have to commend him for selecting excellent local guides who miraculously open doors closed to most tourists. We stayed after hours at Petra, an experience I will treasure for the rest of my life. We spent time speaking with and photographing a geisha and we dined and stayed in unique local places not found in typical guide books.
One look at his website will tell you that Ken knows photography. His images are strikingly beautiful and he is generously willing to share his techniques and knowledge. What his website won’t tell you is that Ken’s tours will give you a chance to travel with folks who will become friends, who will laugh with you, who will teach you and who will be there to offer all the support you may need. I can’t wait to chase the light with him again soon.

LOPES, Andréia Aparecida Ferreira. The gender of self-care: the implications of the diet in the diabetics' commensalism. Cad. Pagu [online]. 2011, n.36, pp. 345-374. ISSN 0104-8333. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0104-83332011000100013.
The article questions the way by which the family commensal situations represent a challenge to the diabetics who are engaged with the practices of taking care of themselves. From the field research in an association of diabetics in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, the analysis shows how the researched group - men and women between 53 and 90 years - deals with the changes in their social practices while they try to take care of the diabetes. The practice of taking care of the self confronts the gender representations around the caretaker's feminine role, and points to the break of the family relationship of exchange.

GUARANTEE OF BOUNTEOUS HARVEST
Galla Bayramy - the annual wheat harvest festival - has long been an integral part of the calendar of important dates in Turkmenistan. At the same time, it is only recently that Galla Bayramy has indeed become a national festival during which the whole country celebrates the successes of farmers. The reason for such celebrations is that Turkmen farmers have invariably obtained high yields of crops in recent years.
The program of this year's festivities in the cities and villages included official meetings and celebrations in honor of best workers of the wheat harvest, contests, concerts, sport and equestrian events, thematic art exhibitions at the museums and other cultural events.
The Ashgabat Equestrian Sports Complex was the main venue of celebration of the wheat harvest. President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov congratulated the people of Turkmenistan on this occasion. He noted that Turkmenistan's farmers achieved great success by harvesting 1.6 million tons of wheat this year. Addressing the agricultural workers, the head of state stressed that there is every condition for productive work of farmers in Turkmenistan that enable them to yield bounteous harvests on their land and live in prosperity using the fruits of their labor.
As is known, the agricultural sector plays a significant role in the economic policy of the country, which is aimed at strengthening the capacity of the national economy. As part of the agrarian reform initiated by the President of Turkmenistan, the agricultural sector receives targeted support by means of technical re-equipment and modernization of the production infrastructure of the agro-industrial sector, development of the chemical industry, provision of chemical fertilizers to farmers, solving the issues of land reclamation and water supply. The agro-industrial complex is supplied with modern tractors, combines and other equipment. Under the Program of Development of the Agricultural Sector of Turkmenistan for 2012-2016, new elevators with storages for selected seed wheat have been built in every province.
It is important to note that the agricultural sector is exempt from taxes and other compulsory payments. Farmers, peasant associations, landowners, machine operators are provided with preferential bank loans to cover expenses on agricultural production and purchase of equipment. A systematic rise of wheat purchase price offers a good incentive for rural workers.
In addition, large-scale investment projects are being implemented in all the regions of Turkmenistan that change dramatically the living conditions in the Turkmen villages. This work is carried out under the National Program on Transformation of Social Conditions in Villages, Townships, Cities, Districts and District Centers until 2020, the General Program on Provision of Clean Drinking Water to the Settlements of Turkmenistan and other large-scale social and economic programs.
It is very important in terms of progressive development of the country that Turkmenistan started exports of bread grain. One should also recall that Turkmenistan received a special award from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) for its achievements in ensuring food security under one of the Millennium Development Goals that was incorporated in the FAO program for the period up to 2015. As a whole, all this is clear evidence of the successful implementation of the task to ensure food sufficiency, including by fully meeting the domestic demand for domestically produced bread.
The success of farmers in 2016 makes it possible to expect at least the repetition of the great result in the 2017 season too. It is expected that grain will be sown in 760 000 hectares of land, out of which farmers should harvest 1.6 million tons of grain in 2017, including 450 thousand tons in Akhal province, 380 thousand tons in Mary province, 350 thousand tons in Lebap province, 300 thousand tons in Dashoguz province and 120 thousand tons in Balkan province. Farmers are fully equipped with relevant agricultural machinery from the manufacturers such as Case, Claas and John Deere.

3 ingredients for the best coconut laddoos
Just 3 basic ingredients and your absolutely decadent coconut laddoos will be ready! Let me take you through each ingredient:
Dry desiccated coconut
Now the first thing people think of when they see shredded/desiccated coconut in a recipe is that what does it actually mean. They also think about what is the difference between the two, if any and can one be substituted for another.
Shredded coconut is simply thin strips of coconut and this usually comes in the dry form in packages, while maintaining some amount of moisture. Desiccated coconut is much more finer in size than shredded coconut. This is not the same as coconut flour, so please do not confuse the two.
You can substitute shredded for desiccated coconut and vice versa but this also depends on recipe to recipe. The size of the coconut flakes matters only for its binding properties and whether it’ll be able to hold its shape or not. For a recipe like one of these coconut laddoos, desiccated coconut is slightly better since the small and extremely fine coconut flakes will be beautifully bound into coconut balls after being mixed in with condensed milk.
In addition to shredded and desiccated coconut, you will also find coconut flakes in the market. These are fairly big flakes and are more commonly used for garnishing. The big size of the flakes makes it really tough to incorporate them into batters and can hinder the binding stage of different mixtures and or batters.
Condensed milk, or Milkmaid, as we very commonly call it is what brings these coconut laddoos together. I absolutely love adding condensed milk to my recipes. It is so nostalgic, and I’m a huge fan of the sweetness that they add to my recipes.
Every time I add condensed milk to a recipe, the quantity seems a bit excessive in the beginning but when the dessert comes together, the quantity of condensed milk actually fits perfectly. So if in any recipe the condensed milk seems excessive, I suggest you go along with it because reducing it’s quantity will have an effect on the texture and taste of the final dessert.
Gulkand filling for the coconut laddoos
I absolutely loved combining gulkand with the flavor of coconut and sweet condensed milk. Gulkand is actually a sweet preserve made from roses and believe it or not, it actually has a lot of health benefits!
Gulkand improves memory and eyesight, it helps relieve lethargy and it helps purify blood. So if anyone asks, these coconut laddoos filled with gulkand are totally a healthy treat, hehe.
Don’t worry about going to a special shop for purchasing gulkand. There are high chances that your local store will already have it. If however, you cannot find gulkand, you can fill the centre of these coconut laddoos with whatever you want or you can just eat them plain and simple. YUM.
How to fill the coconut laddoos
Filling the laddoos is just as easy as everything else in this recipe. All you need to do is take a small portion of the mixture, roll it into a rough sphere, flatten the sphere out and fill it with one teaspoon of gulkand in the middle. Once you have put the filling, then it is important to re roll the sphere in a way that all the edges are sealed and no filling is coming out.
If you want to fill these laddoos with other filling like some other fruit preserve such as raspberries or a dollop of ganache or anything like that then don’t be afraid to take that ahead. Just make sure, whatever you are filling the laddoos with is something that is not too runny otherwise your laddoos won’t be able to hold their shape and things will definitely get messy.
Things to keep in mind while making coconut laddoos
The process of making these laddoos could not be simpler. But to make sure you get the perfect laddoos, here is what you need to keep in mind:
- Use desiccated coconut because the finer coconut flakes will roll into much more stable laddoos than strips of shredded coconut.
- After mixing the coconut and condensed milk together, refrigerate the mixture for 20-20 minutes. This will help the mixture become slightly firm and your laddoos will then have a better overall structure.
- After you have filled the laddoos with gulkand, make sure to wrap it up nicely and form a smooth sphere again. This ensures the filling of the laddoo stays intact.
- If the laddoo is sticking to your hand while you’re shaping it, gently rub a tiny bit of sunflower oil on your hands. This way the mixture won’t keep sticking to your palms.
This is definitely the easiest festive recipe that you can make and also the most delicious! I love seeing your pictures so make sure to tag me on my Instagram handle @shivesh17 when you make these adorable coconut laddoos. Happy baking and a very happy festive season!
- 1½ cup (150gms) desiccated coconut

Chicken parmesan is not something that you would typically be having on Paleo because it is coated in bread crumbs. But this chicken parm is coated with Parmesan cheese and almond flour, which replaces the bread crumbs. You’ll still get that classic crunchy outer covering on the chicken, and of course the Parmesan will be baked right onto the chicken, so it’s just a matter of getting the other ingredients right. For the tomato sauce they are using garlic, oregano, and olive oil, and you can top it off with basil leaves and optional mozzarella cheese.
Those who have been on the Paleo diet also say that once all the refined sugar and dairy are cut from the diet—about two to three months in—their level of energy is noticeably higher than before, so they’re even more motivated to work out and follow a Paleo diet, all part of the lifestyle. The key to success is to start small and build on your success.
The Ultimate Paleo Cookbook has several authors, all of whom run well-regarded blogs about the paleo lifestyle. For this book, they combined their all-time favorite recipes to create an enormous collection of paleo-friendly meals. You’ll find everything from quick weeknight dinners to slow cooker dishes and budget-friendly options, as well as snacks, desserts, and more.
This one is a New York Times bestseller and has even sold over one hundred and fifty thousand copies. That's a lot of books - and a lot of people reading! The best part about Paleo for Beginners is that it even includes a huge list of all the foods you can eat while following a Paleo diet. Now you won't have to wonder if your favorite food is allowed!
Not only will you have the ideal main dish recipes, but this book includes breakfast and desserts as well. This gives you everything you need throughout the day and you’ll never get bored with your food choices. You’ll certainly want to keep your slow cooker at the ready when you can prepare such delicious menu items that are thoroughly satisfying. From paleo sweet potato shepherd pie to Asian inspired pepper steak—your menu week after week will stay stunning while also ensuring you can stay fit and healthy at the same time!
Just because it comes from a can doesn’t mean that you can’t prepare something really delicious out of canned salmon. After all, we are fortunate enough that farmed salmon doesn’t hold well to the canning process so we are blessed with an easy and cheap source of wild salmon year-round. In this recipe, I use olive oil and lemon juice, but homemade mayonnaise is also excellent.
This chicken salad keeps things light and has an eclectic mix of meat, fruit, and vegetables, so you’ll feel great after eating it. While some might think that Paleo eating doesn’t include salads, this is a misperception. In fact, you’ll likely end up eating more salads than you ever did before so you can balance out a meal. This salad makes a great lunch, and will surely give you energy to help you through the rest of the day, without a sluggish after lunch feeling. Consider using baby spinach or baby kale leaves instead of ordinary lettuce for the base.
Dried Fruit Bars Bite-Sized Raspberry Popsicles Apple and Almond Butter Bites Acorn Squash with Walnuts & Cranberries Valentine’s Day Smoothie Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Baked Apple Chips Granola Bars Pumpkin Pie Smoothie Apple cinnamon fruit rolls Chocolate nut granola Morning Paleo smoothie Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds Grilled peaches with Prosciutto and Basil Paleo Snacks Kale chips Raspberry-Lime Fruit Dip Chocolate Strawberry Hearts Banana Raisin Cookies Chunky Fruit Popsicles Bite-sized chocolate treats Broiled Grapefruit Fruit Pudding Fried Honey Banana
You’ll be happy to learn that you can have Thai curry on the Paleo diet, as long as you follow a recipe that’s been adjusted accordingly. This may not follow the traditional recipe exactly, but all of the distinct flavors are there, thanks to the use of full-fat coconut milk. They’ve used plenty of chicken, and have included an assortment of vegetables like zucchini, carrots, mushrooms, and asparagus. There’s even kale thrown in for even more nutrients. Really as long as you’ve got the curry paste and the coconut milk you’re well on your way to a successful replication.
With over 200 recipes, all Paleo friendly, you know you’re in for a treat with the Caveman Feast. All you need to do to get a feel for the type of quality recipes you’re going to get is check out the ones he’s providing for free at his Civilized Caveman site. You can only imagine that he’s saving the best for this compilation, and to sweeten the deal he’s including a series of bonuses that give you plenty of information right from the top authoritative sources on what’s Paleo and what isn’t. So cut out all of the contradictory information and get down to the real meat, literally and figuratively.

tudy introduced the usefulness of LYVE-1 immunoreactivity for identification of lymphatic vessels in decalcified tissues, and demonstrated the fine distribution and organization of these vessels in mouse gingiva.
confirming the specificity of anti-mouse LYVE-1, frozen sections of mouse decalcified gingiva were immunostained with the antibody.
VE-1-positive lymphatic vessels were clearly found in the connective tissue under the gingival epithelium; these vessels appeared to pass through the lamina propria of the gingiva toward the alveolar crest and run along the external surface of the alveolar bone. The lymphatic vessels were sparse and apart from the oral gingival and sulcular epithelia, while they were dense adjacent to the junctional epithelium.
nse network of the lymphatic vessels adjacent to the junctional epithelium, which is apparently exposed to foreign antigens, may act as an efficient drainage pathway of the excessive interstitial fluid and immune cells, and play an active role in the immune defense of the gingiva. The present study also revealed the absence of lymphatic connection between gingiva and periodontal ligament.

Oh my word. You have got so many Pandora. Adimre them all. You are a lucky lady for sure!!!
Humble not at all! They are all very dear actually! So beautiful, I like your 14k gold one especially!
awaiting sale on ruelala to get some more 14k charms.
Me too! Lol Their sales are awesome
Wow, you do have a lot. Most of them are bangles? I like the green one, so colourfull and happy!
Pandorarose is right, this is not a humble collection! Wow, you have awesome charms there and they all look brandnew. You must be so happy with them. Did it take you a long time to collect this?
you got a beautifull collection, i love it!
it's funny beacause iM trying to have three bracelets, too, on silver, one two-tone and one with gold charm i love your gold one with the green murano
Almost done! I need a couple more charms and i am finished. Some of the charms on here are just filling up space,.they will be going onto my other Pandora bracelet, i am just trying to get a feel for how many charms i want on here.
Lovely! I'm debating an oxidized but ugh, I've spent too much money on jewelry this year already! lol
It really looks great, your bracelet is unique, they all are but yours is really special. I love the oxi with the gold and the XL charm and a little sparkle. You have a little bit a everything on your bracelet without being messy.
I've redone my lime bracelet to create a minimal look (6 charms on a Chamilia flex bangle), so I had several "leftover" charms as well as some smoky quartz and champagne colors that didn't really fit on other bracelets. I decided, what if I combine all these? Here is my lime and smoky color scheme. I have a peridot heart clip on its way I will add.
i love the two-tone golden star, and i love the look of your oxidised bracelet
and how do you like you safety chain, i was looking for that one may be for my silver one but i 'm not sure
I had that safety chain and I liked that I could clip it on after my bracelet is assembled but I hate that it doesn't cover the threads and it's really bulky so it takes up valuable real estate lol
ok thanks for your input, i will still think about it
Very nice! Suits the season perfectly.

I’m Kinglink and it’s the end of 2021… or rather the beginning of 2022, but that’s the perfect time to discuss the best of last year.
I make a lot of Youtube videos for everyone to watch, and I hope people are enjoying them. And from the number of likes, I think that’s what happening, remember to click it. Though every time I get to this point of the year, I realize this video is more for me. It’s a chance for me to take stock of everything I’ve played, become reflexive and just think about what I enjoyed the most or want other people to play. In the past, I’ve talked about Yakuza, Outer Wilds, and Disco Elysium, and this year I’m going to give it another go.
I obviously haven’t played every game that came out last year, though I did play 295 games, that’s not even counting games I emulated. And yes, I do keep track of this stuff. So I did well, though not every one of those games came out in the last twelve months either, and that’s just something I’m ok with. I do what I can with the time I have.
I’m Kinglink and…. Well, 2020 sucks, doesn’t it? Let’s just talk about some games?
So for my final video each year, I like to talk about what games I played in a year, and which games were the best that I would recommend to everyone. This year I made a database of every game I played and it’s something I’m trying to do going forward. I ended up with 115 games played outside of games I covered for Humble Bundle, a total of over 250 games.
The following a script from the youtube video below. Enjoy either the script or the video itself. Thanks for watching.
Welcome back. I’m Kinglink and this is the second video of the Kinglink Reviews awards.
If you haven’t seen it, I already gave the worst of the year awards out. If you want them, I’ll link them at the end of this video. But with bad we need to also praise the good. And my 2019 reviews had some amazing games.
Some quick ground rules. This isn’t about score. While I did give a perfect score out to a few games this year, not all have made this list. This is a personal opinion, whereas my scores are about recommending the games to others. I didn’t like Hearts of Iron but it’s such a good game that it deserved a 4/5 last year. Personally, I didn’t like it.Read More »
The following is a youtube script for the video featured below. Watch the video or read the script as you wish.
Welcome, I’m Kinglink and I’ll be your host tonight, for our first of two award shows. The more popular category. Worst of year.
Maybe it’s just me, but I love the worst lists. This is always far more interesting than finding out if Breath of the Wild or Mario Odyssey won the top award for the year. Instead, let’s talk about the worst games I played and just what makes them terrible. Unfortunately, because this is a video program, I will be forced to replay these games for… admittedly minutes. Just minutes. I’m not subjecting myself to these games for longer.
The following is a script from the attached video. It’s my awards for 2018. Please enjoy:
Hello and welcome to part 2 of End of Year celebration 2018 edition. It is totally not late, The official calendar people, that I am not making up, has declared New Years videos are officially 2018 videos. Now that we have the last minute reviews out of the way, we can have some real fun. It is Award time.

Sheldon is alleging that the governor has failed to report more than $200 million in assets on his state financial disclosure form in violation of the Florida Constitution. His lawsuit, filed two weeks ago, was assigned to Dempsey, appointed to the bench by former Gov. Jeb Bush.
Dempsey, however, had previously been represented by Scott's general counsel, Pete Antoncacci, on an ethics charge and Sheldon said that posed an inherent conflict of interest. Dempsey was charged with inflating her record in campaign documents and received a public reprimand by the Florida Supreme Court.
Sheldon, a former deputy attorney general under Bob Butterworth, is running against Republican Pam Bondi, also noted that Dempsey's former husband, Hayden Dempsey, worked as legislative director for Scott early in his term.
"Plaintiff reasonably fears that, no matter how much the judge attempts to be completely fair and neutral in resolving all issues in this case, that there would be a natural bias or prejudice when the decision would have consequences to her personal life and in particular the relationship with both Judge Dempsey’s ex-husband as well as her children,'' wrote Don Hinkle, Sheldon's lawyer in the motion to recuse.
Dempsey agreed to the motion. No word yet on which judge has received the assignment in her place. Download Motion-Recuse Dempsey (1) (1)

For hazard evaluation a stochastic simulation of TC tracks is used based on the historical best track data of tropical cyclones in the respective ocean basin (Rumpf et al., 2006 and 2007a). Using this model, synthetic TC tracks covering a time span of 10,000 years are simulated. The model provides the location of the cyclone centre, the maximum wind speed, the radius of maximum wind (RMW) and the radius of gale force winds (Rgale) in six-hour intervals for every simulated TC track according to the information given in the historical data sets. A two-dimensional parametric wind profile based on momentum conservation v = const./(r^x) is applied to the simulated TC tracks, where r represents the radius from the centre of the TC. As momentum is not conserved in the boundary layer, the exponent x < 1 is found empirically from historical storms and depends on the maximum wind speed and the vortex shape parameters RMW and Rgale (Rumpf et al., 2007b).
Vulnerability is evaluated from historical loss and exposure data to obtain a relationship between wind parameters and loss ratio. These parameters include the wind speed and the duration at a certain location, and the size of the storm. Given a certain exposure distribution, the damage of each synthetic storm can be calculated and, assuming the event probability of each synthetic storm is equally distributed, a return period assigned. The resulting probability distribution yields the net premium and damage potentials for specific return periods.

Hello all, we are in the process of building a wood fired oven. We purchased a modular kit (casa 90) and it's on it's way. We are so excited! It will be a mobile pizza oven which we will take to local farmers markets etc... I am a recent culinary school graduate, and last year our class visited Woodstone Ovens in Bellingham WA - they make these ovens, which range from small to very large, for restaurants. They make wood fired ovens, but most of them are gas fired now. We were able to experiment with all sorts of foods and dishes, and had a sort of iron chef competition. It was amazing, and it sold me on cooking in these ovens. I still have a lot of questions though, and that's why I joined this forum...

Billy Long likes cheap shoes from overseas. this probably explains that stress fracture in his foot.
Billy Long needs to explain this action.
He signed this letter (I know, he signs a lot of stuff that he doesn't comprehend)which includes this sentence:
Footwear tariffs are among the highest in the U.S. Tariff schedule despite the fact that less than 1% of the footwear sold in the U.S. is produced here, and the footwear that is produced here is largely manufactured with imported components that are duty-free or subject to low duties.A press release from the RILA (Retail Industry Leaders Association):
The United States charged TPP countries nearly $250 million in footwear tariffs last year. These tariffs make footwear more expensive for American families, and updating the rules for footwear in the TPP would help to lower costs for a basic necessity. Modern footwear rules would also benefit American workers by recognizing the hundreds of thousands of high-value American jobs devoted to design, engineering, marketing and retail distribution for footwear.
I don't get the leap in logic here.
Reducing the footwear tariff will "benefit American workers by recognizing the hundreds of thousands of high-value American jobs devoted to design, engineering, marketing and retail distribution for footwear."
How many American jobs are tied to design and engineers of footwear? Hundreds of thousands?
How many American jobs are tied to engineering of footwear? Hundreds of thousands?
How many American jobs are tied to marketing and retail distribution for footwear? Now many this is where the hundreds of thousands of retail sales workers jobs come into play. But are these "high value jobs"?
Most places I know that sell shoes are all self service stores like Payless Shoes. (My experience as a kid was Hill Brothers Shoe Store on Lemay Ferry Road. I still remember the store's slogan: "Man alive, two for five!" How about "Brown Shoes Fit", remember that slogan?)
Where do residents of MO7 buy their shoes? Walmart? Target? Bass Pro? Plaze Shoe Store? I don't know.
But I do know there were a lot of shoe factories in MO7 Ozarks and across the USA that are no more. American Made Shoes. "Almost 99% of the 2.4 billion shoes purchased in the U.S. every year are imported, 86% of them from China." (Note to Bus Riders-- this WSJ article was free to access, not hidden behind a paywall.)
Billy and his fellow letter signers have nary a word about manufacturing footwear.
Today leader giants in the U.S. shoe retail business include Nike,, Ralph Lauren shoes, Crocs, Reebok, Red Wing Shoes and Justin Boots.
Footwear tariffs make footwear more expensive for American families? I thought the tariffs were designed to make imported goods (which are generally cheaper made and therefore cheaper) equal to American made goods.
It seems to me that Billy Long is advocating AGAINST American jobs here. How many factories in MO7 have closed (think clothing factories and shoe factories) because the factories closed and moved overseas?
Billy-- could you explain yourself on this one? Didn't those cheap shoes you wore while walking the parades give you a stress fracture in your foot that you didn't get fixed until you were on the government's health insurance?
I wonder if his cowboy boots were made in sweatshops?
The letter, which Billy signed, was spearheaded by spearheaded by Representative Aaron Schock (R-IL) and Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) and signed by twenty-seven members, including: Representatives John Barrow (D-GA), July Biggert (R-IL), Diane Black (R-TN), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Paul Broun (R-GA), Suzanne Bonamici (D-OR), Charles Boustany, Jr. (R-LA), Fransisco Canesco (R-TX), Stephen Cohen (D-TN),
David Dreier (R-CA), Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN), Mike Kelly (R-PA) Wally Herger (R-CA), Lynn Jenkins (R-KS), Billy Long (R-MO), Greg Meeks (D-NY), Erik Paulsen (R-MN), Jared Polis (D-CO), Charlie Rangel (D-NY), Dave Reichert (R-WA), Peter Roskam (R-IL), Kurt Schrader (D-OR), Adrian Smith (R-NE), Edolphus Towns (D-NY), Greg Walden (R-OR).
Nike's headquarters is in Beaverton, Oregon.
Do the math.
Bus Driver's note: The Hill's Vickie Needham writes this story: Footwear industry, lawmakers call for reduction of tariffs in Asia-Pacific trade deal.
In her article, Needham writes:
Blake Krueger, chairman of FDRA (Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America), hailed the letter, saying, “300,000 Americans rely on the design, marketing, distribution and sales jobs of the 21st century footwear industry."But again, not a word about manufacturing.
A commentator on Needham's article nailed it:
They want lower tariffs because they had to start paying their foreign sweatshop workers higher pay and overtime,they also have been blocked from working their slaves around the clock,that's how they stole our jobs in the first place,and now that their greedy little slavery ring has been busted,they want to get rid of tariffs and get tax holidays on their blood-money to pay their billions in corporate managements salaries and bonuses.I hope they all go bankrupt and we go back to the small shoe company like Brown Shoe used to be here in Missouri,the greedy migration of the corporate shoe manufacturing monopoly to cheap slave foreign labor and their gargantuan corporate salaries were born of un-American traitors that don't deserve our respect nor our tax dollars.I hope you pay till it bankrupts you just before the President tears up your passport and citizenship and ships your greedy-A@@ to Indonesia to live with those you tortured for so many years..

Music Therapy for Refreshment is another Alpha Wave music application for Android users. Medium Speed Alpha Wave (10Hz) set in 5 melodic music pieces provides a most relaxing way to restore your vigor, to bring about a refreshed mind.
Different from leisure music, subliminal music therapy embeds Alpha Wave to various musical pieces by setting the rhythm to a certain frequency. Listening to such music, our sub-consciousness is awakened. It is guiding us to a brand new discovery of our potentials, to relaxation and to creativity.
To generate Alpha Wave in one's mind, binaural beats are applied. For example, if the left ear is presented with a steady tone of 500Hz and the right ear a steady tone of 510Hz, these two tones combine in the brain. The difference, 10Hz, is perceived by the brain.
Features: - Graceful tunes with string music and natural sounds - Install Location to SD card - Well-designed interface and easy operating - Quick mental refreshing - For relaxation at any time

Tolland Cares is a non-profit organization based in Tolland, CT. We’re a growing group of Tolland residents volunteering our time and resources to help our neighbors and make a difference in our local community.
We organize many charity and fundraiser events, maybe some you’ve been to or heard of?! We install wheelchair ramps and upgrade homes to be handicap-accessible. We do it all, including:
This help will be provided to our Veterans, Persons with disabilities, the elderly, and those without the financial means to make repairs on their own. In the short term, we are trying to identify residents needing immediate help. In the longterm, we would like to have projects set up ahead of time each year. Bigger projects require more planning. If we can plan ahead we can help more residents.
This is going to take a small army of dedicated volunteers, and no skills are required! All residents of all ages are welcomed. Many hands make light work.
Anyone that is interested in making this a success please reach out to [email protected] or by calling 860-2341501

The lack of economic opportunities perpetuates the poverty cycle, and limits investments in water, sanitation, health, education and other basic needs. Improvement in livelihoods is the cornerstone of improvements in living conditions on a sustainable basis without continued grants and donations.
The principles of intervention are skill upgrading through individual responsibility, community self-help and relevance to local situation. An example of our initiatives is vocational training for women of marginalised communities. Through effective training in sewing and knitting, trained women can earn Rs120 to Rs150 per day, a significant sum to sustain themselves and supplement their family income. Combined with improvement with waster and sanitation, such initiatives empower marginalised communities to transform their lives and escape the poverty trap.
This integrated approach and community led transformation processes create shared value and lays a strong foundation for community building that can be scaled up in any part of the world.

Hello, for 8 months now I have been having pain in upper left quadrant/flank and chest pain, a rheumatologist has ruled out bones, cartilage and muscle being the cause.
Pulmonary embolism is also not the case as they tested for that at the beginning of all this, just getting fed up now as it's making doing everyday activities difficult
Has anyone else experienced the same sort of things? or got any advice/idea on what it could be?

Road constructions block traffic at Lenteng Agung in South Jakarta. (Antara Photo/Indrianto Eko Suwarso)
Hi TOD, Bye Traffic: Transit-Oriented Development to Transform Jakarta's Urban Transportation
BY :SETH TAN AND POH MEI YI
DECEMBER 17, 2019
Singapore. In Indonesia, the government's plan for new roads is a double-edged sword – while it will increase mobility, market access and business activities, demand for vehicles will also rise. With already congested streets, commuters often find themselves stuck in three-hour traffic jams. This not only affects workers personally, but also factories and suppliers that deliver products to areas by land, leading to a decline in economic efficiency.
Jakarta also faces rising air pollution, 70 percent of which is contributed by the transportation sector. In fact, the estimated economic cost of traffic congestion in the city has reached approximately Rp 960 billion ($68.6 million) a year, and that does not even include the cost of health to humans.
This is where public transportation projects can make a difference. New transport nodes mean decreasing the number of cars on the road. However, the Public Works and Housing (PUPR) Ministry noted that the 2020-2024 state budget is only able to cover 30 percent (Rp 623 trillion out of the Rp 2,058 trillion) required for the infrastructure development.
In view of this, what can be done to improve financing for public transportation projects?
How Transit-Oriented Development Can Boost Indonesia's Urban Transportation Financing
Enter transit-oriented development (TOD) – a type of urban development that offers a strategic spatial planning tool designed to maximize residential, commercial and entertainment spaces within walking distance of public transport nodes.
It can help foster a greater demand and viability for international investors in the design and operation of mass transport systems.
Cities like Singapore have leveraged TOD successfully. The city-state shares many similarities and challenges with Indonesia's metropolitan areas, such as traffic congestion.
These conditions have prompted Singapore to integrate its urban transit development with spatial design and planning and could be one example for interested cities in the same region to leverage TOD for urban transportation.
The result is a constellation of satellite towns that surround a central core, with rail networks that link these towns to industrial parks and the city center. These satellite towns are self-sustaining; with common public amenities within walking distance and a reduced need to venture out for common daily needs.
Under the right conditions, TOD can also be used for discrete and promising projects rather than the entire network.
In Jakarta, the administration has already expressed its intention to work on a significant number of TOD projects to transform stations and bus terminals into multimodal transport nodes that will integrate housing and public transportation.
The plan also aims to maintain the availability of green open space for the urban ecosystem.
By looking abroad, Jakarta could adopt best practices from other cities on harnessing TOD to fully realize its own vision as well as engage with solution providers based in the region who have the necessary experience with such projects.
While TOD improves the liveability of cities, its effect on the financing model for mass transit projects is often overlooked.
By partnering with organizations like Infrastructure Asia, Indonesia can tap into Singapore’s international ecosystem of firms with design, engineering and architectural experts.
This also includes other key value chain players for transit-oriented cities, including active real estate firms such as Capitaland, Keppel and Mapletree, to name a few financiers active in seeking opportunities and legal as well as transaction advisors who can help design and manage tenders up to its financial close.
It will also help Jakarta access the necessary investments for their TOD projects.
Like it did for Singapore, TOD can help them encourage greater transit ridership by maximizing access to public transportation and controlling the number of cars on their roads.
When the journey toward achieving transit efficiency is accelerated, costs, pollution and congestion all decrease significantly, to ultimately offer better quality of life for citizens.
