Artist - Rachel Lambert
I have been drawn to making objects for as long as I can remember. Starting with clay as a child in my father’s studio then anything I could get my hands on to imagine into another form. Nine times out of ten they became necklaces….. sometimes objects for my dolls house.
On leaving school I had no great desire to study at university or any other institute, so I started working in hospitality, which I really enjoyed. Still, in my spare time I was playing with materials and making. Soon enough though I decided on a jewellery techniques course at M.I.T. in Auckland. Where I learnt all the basic techniques of the jewellery trade. I made my decision then to continue in that field.
Over the years following my studies finishing in 2001, I was lucky enough to be invited to participate in exhibitions and sell my work in a few galleries around New Zealand. Later on I caught the travel bug, basing myself in the UK for six years where I worked as a bench jeweller for an independent jewellery store.
The jewellery I have made over the years has varied greatly. From Maori/Pacific inspired pieces, organic shapes and natural materials to traditional jewellery; goldsmithing, gem setting, jewellery alterations and repairs. I enjoy every part of the jewellery making process, from simple to complex, there is always plenty to learn.
My surroundings have played a huge role in inspiring me to create; from the materials I choose to work with and the changing natural environments to my experience of life and influential relationships. The hope I have in creating jewellery is that it draws you in to hold it. Like an amulet, comforter or a touchstone; it feels protective, comforting and helps the wearer feel more themselves.

The U.S. continues to face the challenge of correctly identifying underground utilities before beginning a construction project. Having accurately mapped utilities and knowing their location will increase efficiency in the construction process, reducing accidents and utility interruptions. A methodology to integrate Global Positioning System (GPS) and laser technology will be outlined. This process will assist field technicians in collecting underground utility field location data, accurately and consistently, in a minimal amount of time, with less effort, while maintaining maximum safety. It will also form a framework to develop a permanent data solution in which data collected can be stored in a database and retrieved in a three dimensional geo-referenced map for future use. This research focused on utilities which were installed using an open trench method. The integrated technology was tested under construction field conditions. The results of the research indicate that utility data can be collected quickly and cost effectively through this process. The positional accuracy of underground utilities was mapped in three dimensions (3D) within ± 0.45m accuracy. Copyright ASCE 2010.

From UPSC perspective, the following things are important :
Prelims level : IRENA
Mains level : Solar power cost in India
- India is now the lowest-cost producer of solar power globally, according to a report by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
Renewable Power Generation Costs in 2018
- The IRENA report revealed that the total installed costs of utility-scale solar PV in India is as low as $793 per kilowatt (kW) in 2018 which is 27 per cent lower than for projects commissioned in 2017.
- Canada has the highest cost at $2,427 per kW.
- IRENA analysed eight major solar PV markets from 2010 to 2018 which include China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the UK and the US.
- From the analysis, it is concluded that costs have dropped by 80 per cent in India.
Why low-cost solar power in India?
- Typically, the cost of hardware including inverters account for more than half of the total cost of setting up a solar PV project in India.
- India has high solar potential that leads to improved asset utilization.
- India imports majority of hardware for installation from China which is cheaper and helps cut the cost by a huge margin.
- As the cost of land and labor is cheaper than the rest of the world, it also contributes to low-cost production of solar power in India.
- The IRENA is an intergovernmental organisation mandated to facilitate cooperation, advance knowledge, and promote the adoption and sustainable use of renewable energy.
- It is the first international organisation to focus exclusively on renewable energy, addressing needs in both industrialized and developing countries.
- It was founded in 2009 & its statute entered into force on 8 July 2010 and is headquartered in Masdar City, Abu Dhabi.
- IRENA is an official United Nations observer.

Washington was a representative at the First Continental Congress, which met in September 1774. At the Second Continental Congress, which opened on May 10, 1775, Washington was elected commander in chief. He had not sought the position, but accepted the responsibility.
General Washington became a hero of the people. Throughout the revolution, Washington seldom had more than 15,000 troops under his command. The British had a larger, better-trained army, more guns, and more supplies. But, Washington’s bravery and patience held the American army together. The brave general endured many hardships along with his troops. During the winter of 1777 to 1778, spent in Valley Forge, troops were forced to endure freezing weather with poor shelter, little food, and insufficient clothing. Some were even without shoes. Through it all, Washington’s stature among his soldiers and the American people continued to rise.
The Liberty Series
Issued to replace the 1938 Presidential series, this patriotic set of stamps honors guardians of freedom throughout U.S. history. Eighteenth Century America is represented by Revolutionary War heroes and statesmen such as Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Henry, Jay, and Revere.
Leaders of the 19th century including Monroe, Lincoln, Lee, Harrison, and Susan B. Anthony make an appearance. The 20th century is represented by Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and General Pershing.
The Liberty Series also features famous locations important to America’s democratic history, such as Bunker Hill, Independence Hall, and the Alamo.
“Wet” versus “Dry” Printing
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing began an experiment in 1954. In previous “wet” printings, the paper had a moisture content of 15 to 35 percent. In the experimental “dry” printings, the paper had a moisture content of 5 to 10 percent. This process required stiffer, thicker paper, special inks, and greater pressure to force the paper through the plates.
Stamps produced by dry printing can be distinguished by whiter paper and higher surface sheen. The stamps feel thicker and the designs are more pronounced than on wet printings. The experiment was a success, and all U.S. postage stamps have been printed by the dry method since the late 1950s.
Birth Of Artist Gilbert Stuart
On December 3, 1755, Gilbert Stuart was born in Saunderstown, Rhode Island Colony.
Stuart was the third child of Gilbert Stuart, who worked in America’s first colonial snuff mill. When he was six, Stuart’s family moved to Newport, Rhode Island. It was there that he first began to show an interest and talent for painting. In 1770, Stuart met Scottish artist Cosmo Alexander, who served as his first art tutor. The following year Stuart traveled to Scotland with Alexander but returned to America in 1773 following his tutor’s death.
Stuart didn’t remain in America for long. After the Revolutionary War started, he departed for Europe to study, as John Singleton Copley had done before him. While he struggled at first, Stuart eventually met artist Benjamin West, under whom he studied for the next six years. He first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1777 and found his first real success with The Skater in 1782, his first full-length portrait. Stuart recalled that he was “suddenly lifted into fame by a single picture.”
In all, Stuart spent about 18 years in Britain and Ireland, earning some of the highest commissions of the day. He finally returned to America in 1793, first living in New York City before settling in Germantown, Pennsylvania, two years later. There, he established a studio and was soon hired to paint some of the most famous and significant Americans of the day.
One of Stuart’s goals in moving to Germantown (near then-US capital Philadelphia) was getting to paint President George Washington. He succeeded and had the first of several sittings with the president in March of 1795. From these sittings, Stuart produced some of his most famous paintings, notably The Athenaeum, which was later used for the $1 bill and several US stamps. During his lifetime, Stuart and his daughters painted 130 reproductions of The Athenaeum, but he never finished the original. Another famous Washington painting is the Lansdowne portrait, which was famously saved by Dolley Madison during the War of 1812.
After opening a studio in Washington DC, Stuart moved to Boston in 1805. There he exhibited his works and continued to paint. Many other artists also sought him out for advice, including John Trumbull, Thomas Sully, and John Vanderlyn.
Over the course of his career, Stuart painted more than 1,000 people, including the first six presidents. He was in high demand, not only for his painting talent but for his demeanor during sittings. As John Adams later described, “Speaking generally, no penance is like having one’s picture done. You must sit in a constrained and unnatural position, which is a trial to the temper. But I should like to sit to Stuart from the first of January to the last of December, for he lets me do just what I please, and keeps me constantly amused by his conversation.”
Stuart suffered a stroke in 1824 that left him partially paralyzed. In spite of this, he continued to paint for the next two years until his death on July 9, 1828. Unfortunately, Stuart was never good with money and when he died was in deep debt. His family was unable to purchase him a gravesite, so he was buried in an unmarked grave in the Old South Burial Ground of Boston Common. A decade later his family recovered from their debt and wanted to move his body to their family plot, but couldn’t remember exactly where he was buried, so he was never moved.
Over the years, Stuart’s paintings have served as the models for a number of US stamps, including these:

Breakfast is often hailed as the most important meal of the day, and for good reason. It sets the tone for your energy levels, mood, and productivity throughout the day. One key component of a satisfying breakfast is protein, which provides lasting fuel and helps keep hunger at bay.
This article dives into five easy ways to sneak more protein into your breakfasts, ensuring you start your day on the right foot. From eating healthy prepared meals to getting creative with ingredients like eggs, Greek yogurt, and tofu, we’ll help you make your morning meal delicious and nutritious.
1. Start With Healthy Prepared Meals
Convenience and simplicity are key when adding more protein to your breakfast routine. That’s where healthy prepared meals come into play. These ready-to-eat options save you time in the morning and provide a convenient way to ensure you’re getting a healthy dose of protein to kickstart your day.
Opting for healthy prepared meals for breakfast allows you to bypass the hassle of cooking and meal prep while still enjoying a nutritious and protein-packed meal. Whether you’re craving savory options like breakfast bowls loaded with scrambled eggs, vegetables, and lean meats or prefer something sweeter like protein-packed smoothies with Greek yogurt and fruit, there’s a healthy prepared meal option to suit every taste preference and dietary need.
2. Incorporate Eggs
Eggs are a versatile and affordable source of high-quality protein, making them a perfect addition to your breakfast routine. Whether scrambled, fried, boiled, or poached, eggs can be prepared in various ways to suit your taste preferences and dietary needs.
One of the simplest ways to incorporate eggs into your breakfast is by preparing a classic scrambled egg dish. Simply whisk eggs with a splash of milk or water, season with salt and pepper, and cook in a skillet until fluffy and cooked through. You can customize your scrambled eggs by adding vegetables, cheese, or cooked meats for extra flavor and nutrients.
Another popular egg-based breakfast option is the omelet. Fill a pan with beaten eggs, add your favorite toppings such as spinach, tomatoes, mushrooms, and cheese, then fold the omelet to create a delicious and satisfying meal.
Hard-boiled eggs make a convenient and portable breakfast option for people on the go. Simply boil a batch of eggs on Sunday or Monday and grab one or two as a quick and protein-rich breakfast or snack throughout the week.
3. Add Greek Yogurt
Greek yogurt is a creamy and nutritious breakfast option packed with protein, calcium, and probiotics. Incorporating Greek yogurt into your morning routine is a delicious way to boost your protein intake and support gut health.
Enjoy it on its own, topped with fresh fruit and a drizzle of honey for a simple and satisfying breakfast or as a base for smoothies, parfaits, or overnight oats. With its thick and creamy texture, Greek yogurt adds richness and creaminess to your breakfast dishes while providing a protein-packed punch to keep you full and satisfied all morning.
4. Include Protein-Rich Additions
Boosting the protein content of your breakfast is easy with simple additions like nuts, seeds, nut butter, or protein powder. Sprinkle a handful of almonds, walnuts, or chia seeds onto your morning oatmeal or yogurt for added texture, flavor, and protein.
Alternatively, add a scoop of protein powder to your smoothie or pancake batter to increase the protein content of your breakfast without altering the taste. By incorporating protein-rich additions into your morning meal, you’ll stay fueled and satisfied until your next meal, making it easier to reach your daily protein goals and maintain energy levels throughout the day.
5. Get Creative With Tofu
Tofu, a versatile plant-based protein, offers a nutritious alternative for those seeking meat-free breakfast options. This soy-based ingredient is rich in protein, low in calories, and packed with essential nutrients like iron and calcium. Incorporating tofu into your breakfast routine opens the door to a world of creative and delicious possibilities.
One popular way to enjoy tofu for breakfast is by making tofu scrambles. Simply crumble firm tofu and sauté it with vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and spinach for a flavorful and protein-packed alternative to scrambled eggs. Season with your favorite spices and herbs for added flavor.
Another option is to use tofu as a substitute for eggs in breakfast burritos or sandwiches. Slice firm tofu into thin slices and season with spices before grilling or baking until golden brown. Layer onto whole grain bread or tortillas with avocado, tomato, and salsa for a satisfying and nutritious morning meal.
Fuel Your Morning With the Power of Protein
Now armed with these easy and delicious ways to sneak more protein into your breakfast, you’re ready to kickstart your day with a nutritious boost. Whether you’re starting your morning with healthy prepared meals, eggs, Greek yogurt, or tofu, there’s a protein-packed option for every taste and preference. Bon appetite!

Expression of the human cysteine proteinase inhibitor, cystatin C (CysC) in the cytoplasm of Escherichia coli was studied using a cDNA fragment encoding the cysteine proteinase inhibitor controlled by the phage λ pImage /cI857 system. The yield of CysC was low, probably due to proteolytic degradation. By fusing the cysC cDNA to a DNA fragment encoding the signal peptide of the E. coli outer membrane protein A, it was possible to produce a substantial amount of CysC in the periplasm. The processing of the signal peptide was shown to be quantitative and to result in CysC with the correct N-terminal amino acid. Yields higher than 1000 μg CysC/ml can be obtained by initiating the product formation at a moderate temperature (40 °C) late in an optimized fermentation process. A method that gives selective extraction of the periplasmic proteins and at the same time stabilizes CysC has been used.

Novak Djokovic thrown off course by ‘hurricane conditions’ during semi-final
Novak Djokovic has bemoaned the impact of Mother Nature during his French Open semi-final against Dominic Thiem.
After Wednesday’s washout at Roland Garros, it meant both men’s last-four clashes were played on Friday and Djokovic and Thiem only managed to start their match late in the day.
Rain affected play and it meant the match was played over two days and, to make matters worse, it was quite blustery.
Thiem eventually prevailed as he beat the world number one 6-2, 3-6, 7-5, 5-7, 7-5.
“One of the worst conditions I’ve ever been part of,” said Djokovic. “Obviously when you’re playing in hurricane kind of conditions, it’s hard to perform your best.
“It’s really just kind of surviving in these kind of conditions and trying to hold your serve and play one ball more in the court than your opponent. That’s what it felt like playing, to be honest.
“[Thiem] played great, especially in the important moments. Made some really good slices and passing shots. He just managed to put one extra ball in the court at the end of the match. He’s playing great tennis. He showed why he’s one of the best players in the world and I wish him the best for the final.”
The defeat means Djokovic’s hopes of holding all four majors at the same time are over for another year while he is also no longer able to win the Calendar Grand Slam.
“There is always something large at stake when you’re one of the top players of the world and play in the biggest tournaments,” he said.
“It’s not any different this time.”

I’m always on the lookout for new coffee flavors to try because I love coffee so much! Coffee is one of the “addictions” that it’s okay to have-and I do say that lightly! Coffee has some healthy benefits, but too much of anything isn’t always a good idea. Below are some of my tried-and-true coffee favorites that I think everyone should try at least once. Read on if you want to know 9 coffee flavors to try!
My all time favorite of these wonderful coffee flavors to try is mocha! Who doesn’t love chocolate and coffee mixed together? I’m a fan of cold mochas, so I love to make mine with ice. You can try it either way, but it tastes delish with an extra shot of whipped cream and a few chocolate shavings on top!
I’m not a big fan of caramel, but I actually love caramel in my coffee! It really sweetens it up, and of course gives it a very rich flavor. Depending on how much you love caramel, you can add as much or as little as you want. Sometimes, it even tastes good to mix both caramel and chocolate flavors into your coffee!
Lots of people think that peppermint coffee would just remind them of Christmas, and in a way I guess it does. But that doesn’t mean you can only drink it at Christmas time! I love peppermint tea and peppermint chocolate, so it’s only natural that I would like peppermint coffee. For your first time trying it, go light so it’s more of a fresh taste and not too overwhelming.
Cinnamon coffee is just one of those things that gives you warm, fuzzy feelings! If you have never tried a little cinnamon in your coffee, it should definitely make it onto your list of coffee flavors to try out. You can find cinnamon flavored creamers, but I love to add a few teaspoons of the real stuff to my coffee for a nice kick-start to my morning.
I usually only drink pumpkin flavored coffee during the fall season, but that doesn’t mean that you have to! It just feels right to me, but I know some girls who use pumpkin flavored creamers year-round. Pumpkin flavored coffee has a smooth texture and I love the after-taste it leaves in my mouth.
I’m not only a coffee fan, but I love my cappuccino as well! Besides French vanilla, white chocolate is one of my favorite cappuccino flavors to try. It gives such a creamy taste to my coffee! If you find a white chocolate flavored syrup or creamer, try it out in your coffee or cappuccino and I know you’ll love it as much as I do!
Here is another coffee flavor I prefer to drink cold, but I’ve had it served hot too. It’s all according to your personal preferences! Java chip is a very sweet and rich flavor, so if you don’t like your coffee very sweet, you may not like java chip. If you have a sweet tooth though, this one is for you. Nothing tastes better than an iced, java chip coffee on a hot day!
I recently discovered Irish crème flavoring for my coffee and I was immediately hooked! There’s no way to really quite describe how good it tastes. I’ll just say this: make sure you try it for yourself!
This one might be a little out there for some of you, but it can’t hurt to give it a try, right? I love the tropical fruits, and coconut mixed with coffee just feels like a summer vacation! Again, I prefer this one to be cold because it tastes better to me that way. You can go for a coconut flavoring, or you can add some real coconut if you’re feeling adventurous!
Remember that you don’t necessarily have to go to a coffee house to try out these flavors! You can buy flavored syrups or creams to keep at home and make your own coffee! This will help save you money as well, so that’s a bonus. What are some of your favorite coffee flavors?
