You want some exoticism this morning too?
That’s good, I have everything it takes to prepare a great breakfast that will make us travel straight under the coconut trees. And it’s kind of a nice projection for a month in December.
I discovered not long ago the pink Pitaya or more commonly called » dragon fruit « . This beautiful fruit is not so easy to find, and this one is really special: it is pink!
And no, you’re not dreaming, today our healthy breakfast is a naturally pungent pink ! It’s thanks to the Pink Pitaya. This super fruit is rich in antioxidants, its regular consumption will thus allow you to slow down the cellular ageing for all the cells of the body (and in particular your skin).
Where to find pink pitaya?
My cupboards are full of great food and good products to keep me on track between exam reviews, my mom’s life, my publishing and my culinary collaborations. I might as well tell you that I pay very special attention to my diet and my lifestyle.
In winter as in summer, I can count on Diego, my friend who imports very good quality organic pink pitaya called Coraçai. The fruit is mixed and then frozen in individual small bags. This makes it possible to have a stock in the freezer all year round and to pay much less than the non-organic fruit found in supermarkets. And as there is only one intermediary (Diego) we really have the right information for quality control. I’m a fan!
You can find Diego on IG with the username ilovecoracai.
This kind of recipe is what I like to do when I want to bring something nutritious to my body to fill it with energy and vitality. The little touch of Granola on top is THE little gourmet touch that brings a little crunch (I like to surprise my taste buds!). You know what I think? It’s just un-liky!
I’m sure you’ll adopt this smoothie bowl with its sparkling colour and amazing taste.
If you are also a fan of Vegan easy recipe, ready in 5 minutes and super super healthy, then you will love this energetic bowl.Print
A healthy smoothie bowl made with pink pitaya.
- 100g organic pink pitaya
- 1 ripe organic banana

Stimulus Provides Record Boost for Fighting Drugs, Gangs, and Violence against the Elderly Funding is More Than the Last Four Years Combined
Buried deep in the stimulus bill is more than $30 million to help New York City fight crime. The “Justice Assistance Grant” (JAG) program is a multi-purpose, anti-crime initiative that helps cops, District Attorneys, and prosecutors take on gang violence, drug trafficking, and juvenile justice.
According to a study released today by Representative Anthony Weiner (D – Queens and Brooklyn), a member of the House Judiciary Committee, the City will receive a $30 to $35 million windfall in JAG funding – more than the last four years combined.
Among the programs that have been funded with jag dollars in the past are:
NYPD used funds to implement state-of-the-art child exploitation tracking system
Brooklyn DA used funds to try violent juvenile offenders, particularly those affiliated with gangs
Manhattan DA used funds to target criminals who are violent and habitual offenders
Queens DA used funds to target hate crimes and track patterns of youth gang development
Staten Island DA to enhance the prosecution of violent offenders.
Special Narcotics Prosecutor used funds to crackdown on career and violent narcotics offenders
City used funds to manage digital images and videos sent to 911 and 311 systems via cell phones and computers.
The recently-enacted stimulus provides more than $2.76 billion nationwide to allow states and local governments to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime and to improve the criminal justice system.
Rep. Weiner said, “These funds get the federal government back in the business of keeping our streets safe. They will help all levels of law enforcement put violent criminals and gangs behind bars.”

It was no surprise to me or to anyone else who knows Adam that he did an excellent job. In some sense he was representing mainline Protestant churches, which have suffered significant declines in membership numbers in the last several decades. Because Adam's church now attracts some 18,000 people, COR is seen as an example of how mainline churches can be successful, at least in terms of size and programs.
And a worship service was exactly the right place -- even if there was an interfaith atmosphere to that service -- for Adam to have called for a renewal of religious faith. Here's a bit of what he said, though I'm ignoring here the great way he drew on the image of Moses as a leader:
“The theme of this year’s inauguration was ‘Faith in the Future of America.’ But in this service, we come together to acknowledge that in order for America to have a future, we’ll first need to find a deep and abiding faith in God. ... It is this faith that helps us discover the kinds of visions that are worthy of our great nation, worthy of the sacrifices we make. It is this faith that sustains us when we feel like giving up – a faith that comes from trusting in the words of Jesus, who said, ‘Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
At the end, he spoke directly to President Obama:
“There’s a lot of darkness in the world. Lead us to be a compassionate people, to be concerned for the marginalized. Help us rediscover a vision for America that is so compelling that it unites us and calls us to realize the full potential of this country to be a ‘shining city upon a hill.'"
At that last phrase I was a bit distracted and even disappointed that Adam would return to it. And I'll briefly tell you why.
It finds its initial origins in the Beatitudes, part of the Sermon on the Mount found in the fifth chapter of the gospel of Matthew. But its more recent usage stems from a 1630 sermon preached by a Puritan, John Winthrop.
This vision offered by Winthrop was not just theocratic in nature but also carried with it the idea that God had specifically chosen what would become the United States to be a model for the world. I would argue that in some ways, it even entails a usurpation of the task given to Israel to be a "model to the nations."
Over the years, politicians of nearly every party have used this phrase as a way of suggesting that somehow God has uniquely chosen America to be holy, to be God's own country.
And whenever I've heard such theological claptrap, whether from Ronald Reagan or Al Gore, both of whom, with many others, were guilty of it, I've complained in public about it. (Reagan seemed to drag out the phrase for every other speech.)
Yes, one can imagine a benign and even inspiring use of the phrase to indicate a nation that would lead the world in defending human freedom and foundational human rights. And I have no doubt that's what Adam meant. But use of that particular phrase inevitably calls up something less innocent, less edifying. For those aware of the Puritan origin of the phrase and its misuse over the years by politicians arguing for an American exceptionism awarded by God, the phrase is inevitably off-putting.
And because Adam is a wise man with a generous heart, I am confident he will forgive me for pointing this out. But go back and read the sermon. It's one worth paying attention to, for sure. (Or, here's a link to a YouTube video of Adam delivering the sermon.)

When people of faith give money to organizations doing work either in this country or overseas, they have an obligation to know at least in general how their money is spent. In Uganda, as this documentary makes clear, some money from Americans who would identify themselves as evangelical Christians is going to help spread hatred of gay and lesbian people. It's a shameful use of money and needs to stop.

- Dr Kiran Bedi's attitude is undemocratic, says Puducherry Chief Minister.
- PM conspiring with Dr Bedi to merge Puducherry with Tamil Nadu, he says.
- Chief Minister Narayanaswamy sleeps on road for third straight day.
Puducherry Chief Minister V Narayanasamy has literally hit the road demanding the removal of Lieutenant Governor Kiran Bedi as he camped in protest on a road near her official residence for the third day in a trot. The intensification of the long-standing feud between the two governing authorities of the Union Territory comes months ahead of the assembly election scheduled for May.
Accusing Ms Bedi of scuttling Puducherry's development at the Centre's behest and citing her "undemocratic style of functioning", Mr Narayanasamy, who heads its Secular Democratic Front alliance government, began his protest on Friday. Sleeping on Anna Salai, a kilometre away from her residence, he has been joined by many others such as Puducherry Congress chief, ministerial colleagues, and MLAs. The CPM and CPI, too, have joined his protest.
Raj Nivas, the Lieutenant Governor's official residence, is heavily guarded by paramilitary forces. He was denied permission to carry out the protest near there citing Covid-19 restrictions.
"This is a not a new demand. Even in 2019 December, we sat in dharna in front of the Raj Bhavan...for the recall of Dr Kiran Bedi," Mr Narayanaswamy told NDTV.
"Now it has peaked. She is now returning files, overruling the decision of the cabinet, overruling the decision of the minister. This is not the job of the Lieutenant Governor...she has no independent power or authority," he said. "She has no respect for law or constitution. She is the constitution herself."
He cited examples such her alleged blocking of the government's Pongal gift to the people, wherein, instead of the Rs1,000 planned, only Rs200 was allowed to be disbursed.
Mr Narayanasamy has appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to remove Ms Bedi, saying she has been stalling welfare measures. He also accused the Prime Minister and Ms Bedi of conspiring to merge Puducherry with Tamil Nadu.
"Continuance of Dr Kiran Bedi here will hamper the growth and development of Puducherry. She is affecting the fundamental rights of the people of the state. It has been her attitude right from the beginning, even when she was Delhi police commissioner," Mr Narayanasamy said.
"Because it is a Congress-DMK government here, the Prime Minister is not taking any step. Therefore, we are doing this agitation in a peaceful manner...But she is afraid of facing us. When we sat on a dharna in 2019, she ran away to Delhi," he said.
Mr Narayanasamy has frequently clashed with Lieutenant Governor Bedi ever since she was appointed to the post in 2016, particularly over administrative matters and the delineation of powers between the two offices.

Making do under low dissolved oxygen: Microbial ecology and biogeochemistry in low-oxygen marine ecosystems
University of California, Merced
January 17, 2018
Pacific Forum—11:00 a.m.
Ocean deoxygenation and oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) expansion have profound implications for marine ecology and biogeochemistry. However, a missing link in our understanding of ocean deoxygenation is accurate measurement and modeling of those processes and organisms that are ultimately responsible for consuming dissolved oxygen (DO) in the ocean. Aerobic microorganisms catalyze the respiration of organic carbon and the oxidation of ammonia and nitrite, therefore they regulate the consumption of DO and organic matter, regeneration and cycling of nutrients, and the availability of substrates and nutrients to other organisms. As DO is consumed, anaerobic forms of metabolism are subsequently favored. But how, precisely, does this proceed through space and time? How predictable are microbial community responses to low DO, both biogeochemically and ecologically? Which organisms and processes “win” the competition for oxygen and other resources? How does oxygen shape microbial communities relative to other environmental variables (temperature, nutrients, and carbon), and in the context of other ecological processes (dispersal and drift)? In this talk, I will address these challenges through new biogeochemical results and quantitative analyses of microbial communities in the largest low-oxygen region of the ocean—the eastern tropical North Pacific (ETNP)—as well as in “marine lakes”—including Jellyfish Lake, Palau.

Rolls-Royce M250-C47E to power MD 540F helicopter
The MD Helicopters Inc (MDHI) MD 540F armed scout helicopter will be powered by the Rolls-Royce M250-C47E engine under a new agreement announced on 6 March. The advanced M250-C47E engine will increase hot and high power and reduce specific fuel consumption to maximise mission performance.
The M250-C47E engine builds on the advanced performance of the -C47M and adds a Value Improvement Package (VIP) and a new, dual-channel FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control). The engine design includes a similar mounting configuration to the -C47M models.
According to MDHI, the new enhancement brings a 5 percent improvement in 'hot and high' power as well as specific fuel consumption reduction throughout the engine operating envelope, and increased engine reliability. In addition to power improvement, the C47E delivers a 2 percent reduction in fuel consumption, and a nearly 8 percent increase in rated take-off power at 700 shaft horsepower. The engine will provide the power needed to allow the MD 540F to carry a full avionics and weapons package while hovering at 6,000 feet/95 degrees F.
Carl Schopfer, president of MDHI, said: ‘The M250-C47E is decisively matched with the performance capabilities of the MD 540F. This engine will efficiently deliver all the power necessary to achieve hot and high performance, while surpassing the increased payload demands of our weapons platform. Similar to the 540F, this engine has evolved from a mission proven platform and utilises the latest technology to advance aircraft performance.’
The increased useful load capabilities of the MD 540F will allow the armed version of the aircraft to carry an advanced, lightweight weapons platform with four stations; various mixes of guns, rockets and missiles will be carried simultaneously. The MD 540F is an upgrade to the MD 530F, with bolstered performance to achieve an increase in max gross take-off weight and useful load capability. The aircraft features a 6-bladed, fully articulated rotor blade system made up entirely of composite material, in addition to a more rugged landing skid built for heavier take-off and landing weights.

British Gas is accused of ripping off customers as profits rocket by 31% to £574m in 2015 while energy costs plummet
- British Gas' profits rose by almost a third to £574m in 2015 - up £130m
- Wholesale gas prices are now at 30p per therm and still dropping
- Many UK customers are paying them three or four times that amount
British Gas was today accused of ripping off customers after announcing its profits rose by almost a third to £574million in 2015.
The energy giant, which has 6.8million UK customers, made £130million more in the last year thanks to near-decade low wholesale energy prices.
UK gas prices are currently trading at just below 30 pence per therm but many customers are being charged at least three times the price.
Ann Robinson, director of consumer policy at uSwitch.com, said: 'Hearing news of rising profits when wholesale energy prices have tumbled will leave many British Gas customers wondering if they're being treated fairly'.
On the up: British Gas' profits rose by almost a third to £574million in 2015 - up £130million
Energy group Centrica said operating profits at its British Gas residential arm rose 31 per cent claiming it was down to higher energy demand.
Although wider group underlying earnings at owner Centrica fell 12 per cent to £1.46 billion.
The results come a week after British Gas became one of the last Big Six providers to lower gas prices in the recent round of reductions.
It has told its 6.8million customers its average bill will come down by 5.1 per cent on March 16 - a paltry saving of just £31 a year.
But it has been criticised because the price cut will come after the winter when consumption will be lower and its last cut came in the summer last year.
British Gas said it saw a 5% hike in gas usage despite the warmest December on record, as last year overall saw more normal temperatures compared with an exceptionally mild 2014.
Profits were also boosted thanks to lower energy efficiency scheme costs, it added.
The group lost 119,000 customer accounts to reach 14.6 million over last year despite cutting gas prices three times since the start of 2015, with the latest announcement coming after reductions last February and August.
The Big Six suppliers have only reduced gas prices over the past year, while the majority of the latest round of cuts do not take effect until after winter, which has angered consumer groups.
Iain Conn, chief executive of Centrica, insisted the group was passing on reductions in wholesale markets.
He said: 'We absolutely have passed on the low costs of commodity prices as they fell to our customers.
'The reason the profits went up in 2015 versus 2014 actually is very simple. It's about the weather and about consumption. And we saw a very mild 2014 and we saw a more normal 2015 and therefore the amount of energy that our customers used went up and therefore the actual total profit went up.'

Daily Archives: March 27, 2015
It’s March 27th, and it still feels like winter in Amsterdam. Wind. Rain. Biting cold. Take all that and multiply it by ten when you’re on a bike. I know these are completely normal temperatures for this time of year, but still. Could we maybe get a little taste of spring?
I know, I know, when we moved to Atlanta all those years ago, the Dutchman and I swore we would never complain about the heat. That first summer, we were those crazy new neighbors who soaked up the sun in the dead of August. I’m pretty sure we lived outside for months. It took us that long to thaw out our frozen bones.
But the heat eventually got to us, just like the cold and wet does here, and it chased us inside. Before long, we were like everyone else in Atlanta, complaining about the heat, the humidity, the blazing hot sun. And when spring came, instead of throwing open the doors and running outside, we complained about the pollen.
So here I am, back where my promise all started, in the Netherlands, freezing and wishing for spring. Like everybody else on this sodden piece of land, I study the weather report like a religion and run outside when the skies stop dumping. I huddle on terraces under heaters and behind wind screens, my face pointed to the sun. I don’t care that it’s still freezing; I’m thrilled to just be outside, even if only for a few minutes.
And when Spring finally gets here, I promise to enjoy every single second. And this time, I promise it will last.

I knew i had to stop procrastinating making blankets and other easy stuff, and start making a pillow cover from the Russian motifs. It involves netting, and that is soooo not my thing! I gathered my motifs, heaved a sigh and started:)
The pillow cover is for my oldest daughter, she loved the red Russian motifs a lot and asked me to make something of them for her.
Here's the progress so far...
I send her the picture, and she was very excited about the result.

Wendy Davis never had a chance to be elected governor of conservative Texas, running as a liberal in an anti-liberal wave election. It just wasn’t going to happen, not even if the Democrats could clone Battleground Texas’ Jeremy Bird and put a clone of him in each of the state’s 254 counties.
Davis was hurt by a number of things, and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram’s Bud Kennedy gets at one of them in this story: abortion. The issue that made her famous was also one of the major reasons that she lost.
Kennedy’s story is well worth the read, as it does break down how problematic Davis’ filibuster turned out to be for her and her party, but apparently he either doesn’t know what happened in Houston, or let some bias slip in.
He admits that the subpoenas of pastors in Houston, in the weeks right before the election, hurt Wendy Davis. They certainly did. But take a look at how Kennedy renders that sordid business.
Davis rarely mentioned her Baptist faith except in her book. It didn’t help when Houston Mayor Annise Parker was drawn into a city legal dispute that involved subpoenaing pastors’ sermons.
That second sentence is entirely incorrect.
Mayor Parker was not “drawn into a city legal dispute that involved subpoenaing pastors’ sermons.” That isn’t what happened.
Parker’s city administration is being sued because it threw out thousands of signatures on petitions that would have put her controversial “bathroom ordinance” up for a vote in a referendum. The lawsuit seeks to get those petitions restored, which would presumably put the ordinance back on the ballot.
Parker’s city administration chose to subpoena five pastors’ sermons and their internal church communications, despite the fact that they are not parties in the lawsuit. They publicly opposed the ordinance, as is their right. But they’re not parties to the lawsuit. The subpoenas also ordered the pastors to appear at a local lawfirm that is known for supporting leftwing causes.
Parker herself defended the subpoenas, at first, in a tweet that she has since deleted. It’s preserved here.
Controversy erupted nationally. Parker and her city attorney backtracked. They claimed not to have read the subpoenas that they had sent out, and which Parker had publicly defended.
They finally had to surrender and rescind the original subpoenas and issue new ones that omit the sermons, which are all publicly available on the churches’ websites anyway. There was never any need at all to subpoena those sermons.
None of that is captured in Kennedy’s writing that Parker was “drawn into a city legal dispute that involved subpoenaing pastors’ sermons.” Perhaps he just didn’t follow the story. There was a whole lot going on.
But that section of Kennedy’s story is so far from the facts that it ought to be corrected.

E-cig teens are more likely to start smoking
Teenagers who use e-cigarettes really are more likely to smoke tobacco in the future, scientists have found.
A study suggests vaping is a gateway to real cigarettes – and youngsters who smoke and vape may use both products more heavily over time.
The results confirm the claims of other experts that e-cigarettes may act as a ‘catalyst’, getting children hooked on nicotine and making smoking socially acceptable so they later turn to tobacco.
A team led by US researchers surveyed more than 2,000 teenagers aged between 16 and 20 over three years.
About a third of vapers were smoking in the first year of the study, but more than half were doing so by the end.
The results, published in the journal Nicotine and Tobacco Research, suggest teenagers who smoke and vape may go on to use both more heavily, rather than ‘switching’ one for the other.
Lead author Dr Michael Dunbar, of the RAND Corporation research centre in California, said: ‘For young people, using these products may actually lead to more harm in the long run. As others have suggested, vaping may be normalising tobacco and nicotine use among young people – using one product may ‘lower the bar’ for going on to use other types of products.’
NHS figures show more than a third of 15-year-olds have tried an e-cigarette.
A University of California study this year also found teenagers were 87 % more likely to try traditional cigarettes if they had experience of vaping.Daily Mail

Postpartum care is important, even if your infant is your top priority. What to expect after giving birth vaginally, including possible side effects including discharge and pain.
Pregnancy impacts your body in more ways than you would imagine. And it doesn’t stop when the baby is born. Here’s what to expect physically and emotionally after a vaginal delivery.
1. Itching or discomfort in the genital area
Table of Contents
In the event of a vaginal tear or an incision made by your doctor, you may have some discomfort for a couple of weeks. Repairing from extensive crying may take more time. While you’re healing, these measures can help you feel better:
- Put something soft under your bottom, like a cushioned ring or pillow.
- Place an ice pack on the area, or a pad soaked in witch hazel, between your sanitary napkin and the skin between your vaginal opening and anus (perineum).
- Use a squeeze bottle to pour warm water over the perineum as you’re passing pee.
- Take five minutes to relax in a warm bath that is deep enough to cover your hips and buttocks. If you feel that cold water is more relaxing, then by all means use it.
- You should take over-the-counter pain medication.
Tell your health care practitioner if you’re having severe, persistent, or worsening pain. It could be an indication of infection.
2. Vaginal discharge
After delivery, you’ll begin to remove the superficial mucous membrane that lined your uterus during pregnancy. You’ll have vaginal discharge made comprised of this membrane and blood for weeks. For the first several days, expect a thick, bloody discharge. Then it will taper, get increasingly watery and shift from pinkish brown to yellowish white.
Contact your health care physician if you experience excessive vaginal bleeding – soaking a pad in less than an hour — especially if it’s accompanied by pelvic pain, fever, or tenderness.
You might feel intermittent contractions, sometimes called afterpains, during the first few days after birth. These contractions, which are similar to menstruation cramps, are important because they squeeze the uterine blood vessels, preventing excessive bleeding. Since nursing causes oxytocin production, it’s not uncommon for women to experience pain. Your doctor may suggest a pain medication available without a prescription.
The pelvic floor muscles, which hold up the uterus, the bladder, and the rectum, can get stretched out or injured during pregnancy, labor, and vaginal delivery. Because of this, you may urinate accidentally when you laugh, cough, or sneeze. Most people see a resolution to these issues within a few weeks, while some chronic cases may persist for years.
You can help tone your pelvic floor muscles and gain control of your bladder by doing pelvic floor muscle exercises (Kegels) and wearing panty liners or incontinence pads can also help. When performing Kegels, visualize yourself sitting on a marble and tightening your pelvic muscles to lift the marble off the floor. First, give it a try for three seconds, and then take a three-second break. Repeat the exercise at least three times daily until you can do it 10–15 times in a row.
5. Soft, juicy breasts
It’s possible that your breasts will feel full, hard, and painful just a few days after giving birth (engorgement). Engorgement can be avoided or at least reduced by nursing often.
Your baby may have trouble latching if your breasts are engorged, which includes the dark circles of skin surrounding the nipples. To aid with your baby’s ability to latch, you may want to express some breast milk beforehand. Warm washcloths or a warm shower might help alleviate breast soreness before nursing or expressing milk. Perhaps milk would be easier to remove. Cold washcloths on the breasts can help soothe a nursing baby in between feedings. Painkillers available without a prescription could also be useful.
Wear a sports bra or other supportive bra if you aren’t breastfeeding. Neither pumping nor expressing the milk will encourage your breasts to produce more milk.
6. Changes in hair and skin texture
Pregnancy hormones cause an increase in hair growth and a decrease in hair shedding. The end effect is usually a fuller head of hair but now comes payback. The hair loss might last up to five months after giving birth.
Even while stretch marks won’t go away completely after giving birth, they will lighten from red to silver with time. Dark spots of skin, like those that may have appeared on your face during pregnancy, will likely lighten after giving birth.
7. Weight loss
After you give birth, you could look like you’re still pregnant. As expected, this is the case. During birth, a woman typically loses around 13 pounds (6 kilograms) due to the loss of the baby, placenta, and amniotic fluid. During the first several postpartum days, you’ll lose some extra weight because of the fluids your body still contains. After then, a nutritious diet and regular exercise can help you gradually return to your pre-pregnancy weight.
8. Postpartum visit
We recommend that postpartum care be an ongoing practice rather than simply a single visit after your delivery. Make an appointment with your doctor within the first three weeks following giving birth. A thorough postpartum examination should be scheduled with your doctor during the first 12 weeks following giving birth.
Your doctor will ask about how you’re doing emotionally and mentally, go over your options for birth control and spacing your children, and go over all you need to know to care for and feed your new baby. Your doctor will conduct a full physical examination and ask you about your sleep routine and any problems you’re having with fatigue.
To ensure a healthy recovery, your doctor may examine your stomach, vagina, cervix, and uterus. Feel free to bring up any issues you have, such as returning to sexual activity or adjusting to your new role as a parent, at this time.

My name is Jordi Pelegrí, I live in Barcelona and I have 30 years old. I am currently working in a dance school, as public relations and professor of Salsa. My passions are dancing, the photography and aquaria.
After having a small aquarium in my teens, I took a break from the hobby for a few years, I have taken up the hobby again, and over a year I experimented with different aquarium fish and plants to reach the conclusion that I really like aquatic landscapes and aquascaping.
I must say that I am really a beginner in the field of aquatic landscapes. The aquascape featured here, Oshun is my first acceptable creation in my eyes.
During this year I have attended many forums where I have learned a lot about this hobby. I'm currently moderating a forum of a shop in Barcelona and occasionally participate in other forums. I recently had the good fortune to be a part of the CAE, where there are many aquascapes from my country to which I have learned a lot from. I am also lucky enough to have a great sponsor , which works directly with the maintenance of tanks, workshops and everything possible to promote this hobby.
At the moment I am keeping 3 tanks (120 liters, 60 liters and 30 liters) and I am waiting to add another 38 liters to the collection. They are dedicated to aquascaping and invertebrates; only one of these tanks features plants which also coexist with fish.
All my progress and creations, as well as the other concerns I publish regularly on my blog dedicated exclusively to photography and aquariums.

If you’re experiencing dental issues, you may have heard about the root canal procedure. But what exactly is a root canal, and when is it needed? Let’s explore these questions to help you gain a better understanding.
A root canal is a dental procedure designed to treat and save a severely damaged or infected tooth. It involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp (soft tissue) inside the tooth and cleaning the root canals. The canals are then filled and sealed to prevent further infection.
The pulp inside your tooth contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue, which are essential during tooth development. However, once the tooth is fully matured, it can function without the pulp. This means that removing the infected or damaged pulp during a root canal procedure does not affect the overall function and health of the tooth.
A root canal may be necessary when the pulp inside your tooth becomes infected or inflamed. This can occur due to various reasons, including:
If you experience symptoms such as severe toothache, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures, swelling, or a small bump on the gums, it’s important to consult a dental professional. They will assess your condition and determine whether a root canal is needed to save the tooth.
Understanding the basics of a root canal procedure and when it may be necessary can help alleviate any concerns or misconceptions. If you’d like to learn more about the root canal process, its cost, or what to expect after the procedure, check out our comprehensive article on root canal treatment. Remember, early intervention and seeking the expertise of a skilled root canal specialist are key to preserving your dental health.
If you’re considering a root canal procedure, it’s important to understand the steps involved in this transformative dental treatment. The process typically involves several key stages, including a step-by-step overview of the procedure and the importance of local anesthesia and sedation.
A root canal procedure is performed by a skilled dentist or endodontist, a dental specialist who focuses on the treatment of dental pulp and the root canal system. Here is a step-by-step overview of the procedure:
Initial Assessment: The dentist will conduct a thorough examination, including dental X-rays, to assess the condition of the affected tooth and determine the extent of the damage.
Numbing the Area: Before beginning the procedure, a local anesthetic is administered to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment. This numbs the area around the tooth, preventing any pain or discomfort during the procedure.
Accessing the Pulp: The dentist will create a small opening in the tooth’s crown to access the infected or inflamed dental pulp. This is typically done using dental drills or specialized instruments.
Removing the Infected Tissue: With the pulp exposed, the dentist will carefully remove the infected or damaged tissue from the pulp chamber and root canals. This step aims to eliminate bacteria and prevent further infection.
Cleaning and Shaping the Canals: The dentist will use specialized instruments to clean the pulp chamber and root canals thoroughly. This process involves removing any remaining debris, bacteria, and infected tissue. The canals are then shaped to prepare them for the filling material.
Filling the Canals: Once the canals are clean and shaped, the dentist will fill them with a biocompatible material called gutta-percha. This material seals the canals, preventing recontamination and providing structural support to the tooth.
Restoring the Tooth: After the root canal is completed, the tooth is typically restored with a dental crown or filling to protect and strengthen it. This step helps to restore the tooth’s functionality and appearance.
During a root canal procedure, local anesthesia and sedation play essential roles in ensuring your comfort and relaxation throughout the treatment. The dentist will administer a local anesthetic to numb the area around the affected tooth, preventing any pain or discomfort during the procedure. This allows you to undergo the treatment with minimal discomfort.
In some cases, sedation may also be offered to help patients relax during the procedure, especially if they experience dental anxiety or have complex dental needs. Sedation options can vary, ranging from oral sedatives to intravenous (IV) sedation. It’s important to discuss these options with your dentist to determine the most suitable approach for your specific needs.
By prioritizing local anesthesia and sedation, your dental professional ensures your comfort and peace of mind throughout the root canal procedure. This enables them to perform the necessary steps with precision and efficiency, restoring your oral health and alleviating any pain or discomfort associated with the infected tooth.
If you’re considering a root canal procedure, it’s crucial to consult with a skilled and experienced root canal specialist. They can provide expert guidance and perform the procedure with utmost care and precision. To learn more about the importance of choosing the right dentist for your root canal treatment, refer to our article on finding a skilled root canal specialist.
If you’re experiencing dental pain or have been diagnosed with a dental infection, undergoing a root canal treatment can provide several benefits. Let’s explore the key advantages of this transformative procedure.
One of the primary benefits of a root canal treatment is the relief it offers from dental pain. When the pulp of a tooth becomes infected or inflamed, it can cause severe discomfort, sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures, and even throbbing pain. By removing the infected pulp and cleaning the root canal, the procedure eliminates the source of the pain, providing immediate relief.
Preserving your natural teeth is another significant advantage of root canal treatment. Instead of resorting to extraction, which may lead to further dental problems and the need for tooth replacement options, a root canal allows you to keep your natural tooth structure intact. This is essential for maintaining proper chewing function, preventing shifting of surrounding teeth, and preserving the overall aesthetics of your smile.
By eliminating the infection and restoring the tooth, a root canal treatment helps prevent future dental issues. When left untreated, dental infections can spread to the surrounding tissues, causing abscesses and potentially leading to bone loss. By addressing the problem at its root, a root canal treatment eliminates the risk of further complications and promotes long-term oral health.
To ensure the success of your root canal treatment and maximize its benefits, it’s crucial to follow proper aftercare instructions. This includes practicing good oral hygiene, scheduling regular dental check-ups, and addressing any concerns promptly. For detailed post-treatment care instructions, check out our article on root canal before and after.
By relieving dental pain, saving natural teeth, and preventing future dental issues, root canal treatment is a valuable procedure that can restore the health and functionality of your smile. If you’re experiencing dental discomfort or have been advised to undergo a root canal, consult with a skilled root canal specialist who can assess your specific situation and provide the necessary guidance and treatment. Remember, early intervention is key to successful root canal treatment and overall oral health.
When it comes to undergoing a root canal procedure, finding the right dentist is essential for a successful and comfortable experience. Choosing a skilled and experienced root canal specialist ensures that you receive the highest level of care and expertise. Here are a few reasons why selecting the right dentist is important for your root canal treatment:
Expertise and Experience: Root canal procedures require specialized knowledge and skills. It’s crucial to choose a dentist who has extensive experience in performing root canals. Look for a dentist who has undergone specialized training in endodontics, the field of dentistry that focuses on root canal treatments.
Advanced Technology and Techniques: A skilled root canal specialist stays up to date with the latest advancements in technology and techniques related to root canal treatments. This ensures that you receive the most efficient and effective treatment possible.
Comfort and Care: Root canal procedures can be complex, and it’s important to find a dentist who prioritizes your comfort and well-being throughout the treatment process. A compassionate and caring dentist will take the time to explain the procedure, answer your questions, and provide a comfortable environment during your visit.
To help you find the right dentist for your root canal treatment, here are some important questions to ask:
What is your experience with performing root canals? Inquire about the dentist’s experience and how many root canals they have successfully completed. This will give you an idea of their expertise in the field.
Do you use advanced technology and techniques? Ask the dentist about the technology and techniques they employ during root canal procedures. Advanced tools and methods can contribute to a more efficient and comfortable treatment.
What sedation options are available? If you experience dental anxiety or have a low pain tolerance, it’s important to know what sedation options are available to help you relax during the procedure. Discuss this with the dentist to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment.
Can you provide references or patient testimonials? Requesting references or reading patient testimonials can give you insight into the experiences of other patients who have undergone root canal treatments with the dentist. This can help you gauge the quality of their work and patient satisfaction.
Remember, finding the right dentist for your root canal treatment is crucial for a successful outcome. Take the time to research and ask questions to ensure that you are receiving care from a skilled and experienced professional. Root canal treatment is an important investment in your oral health, and with the right dentist, you can have confidence in the procedure and achieve the desired results.
Congratulations on completing your root canal procedure! Proper aftercare and recovery are essential for ensuring the success of the treatment and maintaining the health of your tooth. In this section, we will provide you with post-treatment care instructions and tips for managing discomfort during the healing process.
Following a root canal procedure, it’s important to take certain precautions to promote healing and avoid any complications. Here are some post-treatment care instructions to keep in mind:
Avoid chewing on the treated tooth: Give your tooth some time to heal by avoiding chewing on the side of your mouth where the root canal was performed. Opt for softer foods that require less pressure during the initial days.
Maintain oral hygiene: Continue to practice good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing daily. Be gentle around the treated tooth to avoid any irritation. Consider using a soft-bristled toothbrush to minimize discomfort.
Take prescribed medication: Your dentist may prescribe pain relievers or antibiotics to aid in your recovery. Follow the instructions provided by your dentist and take the medication as directed.
Attend follow-up appointments: Don’t forget to schedule and attend any follow-up appointments with your dentist. These appointments allow your dentist to monitor your progress, ensure proper healing, and address any concerns you may have.
It’s normal to experience some discomfort or sensitivity after a root canal procedure. However, there are steps you can take to manage these symptoms and promote a smoother healing process:
Over-the-counter pain relievers: If you experience mild pain or discomfort, over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen can help alleviate symptoms. Always follow the instructions and consult your dentist if the pain persists or worsens.
Cold compress: Applying a cold compress to the outside of your cheek near the treated tooth can help reduce swelling and numb the area, providing temporary relief.
Avoid extreme temperatures: During the initial days after your root canal, avoid consuming extremely hot or cold foods and beverages. Stick to lukewarm or room temperature options to prevent sensitivity.
Follow a soft diet: Opt for softer foods that are easier to chew during the healing process. Incorporate foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, and soups into your diet. Avoid hard or sticky foods that could potentially damage the treated tooth.
Maintain regular dental visits: Even after your root canal treatment, it’s important to continue visiting your dentist for regular check-ups and cleanings. This allows your dentist to monitor your oral health and ensure the treated tooth remains in good condition.
Remember, every individual’s healing process may vary, and it’s important to consult your dentist if you have any concerns or questions during your recovery. By following these post-treatment care instructions and managing any discomfort, you can help ensure a successful and smooth recovery after your root canal procedure.

The greenest cryptocurrency of 2022 is about to close its curtain on its presale – IMPT presale ends within 48 hours. So, if you haven’t yet bought it, better go to impt.io and invest in this presale.
On the official Discord Server, CEO Denis Creighton has added that the crypto exchanges have already started to line up for listing this crypto, with LBank, Changelly, and Uniswap, being the first ones.
All three exchanges will put this asset for sale on 14th December 2022. The devs have also said that seven more exchange listings have been planned.
IMPT Raises $17 Million in Less than Two Months
IMPT has become one of the best and biggest presale projects this year. So far, the token has raised more than $17 million – $17.3 million to be exact – and the community is still rushing to buy this sustaining crypto.
IMPT was introduced as a presale token back in early October and was priced at $0.018 in the initial phase. But soon, this token got traction from the larger crypto community, which ended with this token closing the first stage of its presale very early.
Removing the Exclusivity From Carbon Credits Trading
One of the biggest pain points when it comes to Carbon offsetting has been its exclusivity. Most small brands rarely get to participate, and the big brands that do often have to deal with fraudulent issues like double selling.
Furthermore, ordinary people don’t have access to this thriving economy.
IMPT aims to remove this issue by introducing a marketplace that onboards ESG brands and customers. Brands get to sell their eco-friendly products to customers, who, in turn, earn IMPT tokens while buying such products. Customers can then exchange the tokens for tokenized carbon credits that they can then sell back to the brands or retire.
This approach creates a bi-directional benefit for the brands and the customers – an aspect that has allowed IMPT to become such a big presale success.
IMPT Presale Ends in 48 Hours
IMPT was originally scheduled to end its presale in January, with the price of the later presale stage being $0.028. However, IMPT’s CEO came out on discord to say that in order to navigate the new market realities, IMPT would be coming early.
“The FTX crash has created unsettled the crypto market and made it more volatile,” – IMPT CEO posted in discord while providing his rationale behind launching this cryptocurrency early.
As a result, the remaining tokens of the current presale stage will be burned, and the ones of the last presale stage will be vested for two years. These measures ensure that the token’s scarcity increases, and so does its value.
The presale will end on 11th December 2022, which leaves investors with less than two days to invest in this cryptocurrency.
How to Buy IMPT?
Those who have already purchased IMPT will be able to claim their tokens from the official website on 12th December. Those who still want to must go to the official website – impt.io – connect their crypto wallets and swap IMPT tokens for ETH or USDT.
You can check out the full guide to buying the tokens here.
IMPT is eco-friendly and aims to integrate making green decisions into our daily life. The success of the presale and the token’s utility has led investors to believe that it would become a 10x crypto by next year.
Since only a few days remain till the end of the presale. Stay close to insidebitcoin’s news posts to stay updated.

Why not kill a few birds with one stone? First, it was high time to finally learn how to post an article with our new blogging platform (based on Oracle Content Marketing). Second, and this is of course relative to my little world, it would be useful to provide an update to one of my more historically read topics dealing with serial communications and Java.
A recent comment to one of the Java Serial Port Communications posts mentions difficulty with using the provided RxTx shared object for the ARMv7l architecture. So I figured I'd rebuild it taking advantage of some new hardware. The Raspberry Pi 3 represents the first 64-bit ARM offering from the Raspberry Pi Foundation, and can be ultimately utilized to build both 32 and 64-bit binaries. Although currently most work on this device is done in 32-bit mode, there are some 64-bit environments available. For the 32-bit ARMv7l environment we'll use the ubiquitous Raspbian Jessie distribution. And for our 64-bit AArch64 instance we'll use OpenSuSE LEAP 42.2.
To understand the history of this topic, you can take a look at the following past posts:
RxTx code has not always been readily available, so to improve upon that, you can now go to https://github.com/jtconnors/rxtx-2.1-7r2 and pull down the source (including the modifications needed to build for Java versions 6 though 8). Additionally, another repository has been created at https://github.com/jtconnors/rxtx-2.1-7r2-binaries to keep compiled binaries for the native shared objects associated with RxTx for popular embedded platforms. If you create subsequent binaries for additional platforms, I'd be glad to add them.
Finally, while playing around with both 32 and 64-bit variants, I thought it might be useful to run the SPECjvm2008 benchmark to see how Java performance differs between the architectures. One of the primary advantages of a 64-bit JVM is its ability to support much larger heap sizes. The usefulness of a 64-bit JVM on a Raspberry Pi 3 is certainly debatable, considering it only has 1GB of RAM, nonetheless it would be interesting to see what overhead might be incurred using the 64-bit JVM.
Although results of individual components of the benchmark do vary, overall it looks like the 64-bit JVM does incur some (hopefully acceptable) overhead.

As campus planners at Susquehanna University, we worked with the selected architecture team on the new Science Building project, providing both landscape architecture and civil engineering services. This new academic building houses the wet sciences – biology, chemistry, earth, and environmental sciences.
The location for the building, across University Avenue, required additional planning to make the building feel like it is part of the main campus while also pairing it with the existing science building, located directly across University Avenue.
The new plaza was created with stone pavers to look like a large-scale periodic table of elements. In addition to speaking directly to the scientific curriculum, the pavers are a green solution that allow water to infiltrate back into the soil. Donor opportunities are also available for individual pavers or “elements.”
The project has received LEED Silver certification.

New Market resident charged with bigamy
A former New Market resident has been arrested on a bigamy charge by the Shenandoah County Sheriff's Office.
Connie Darlene Moschgat, 47, of Nicktown, Pa., was arrested Sunday.
Maj. Scott Proctor said the sheriff's office was contacted April 18 and alerted to the fact that Moschgat was married to two men at the same time. He said the agency was able to get papers verifying the situation.
Moschgat was married in 1984 in Pennsylvania, and remarried in Virginia in 2002 without first getting a divorce, Proctor said. He said she recently lived in New Market.
Moschgat is scheduled to appear in Shenandoah County Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court on May 17.

Molecular Pharmacology of Protein Kinase C
When Castagna et al.1 demonstrated that the potent tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) could stimulate protein kinase C activity, protein kinase C caught the attention of many scientists and has resulted in a vast and ever-growing literature on the role of protein kinase C in numerous biologic processes induced by TPA.2 Indeed, the hypothesis that protein kinase C is the one of the binding protein of the phorbol esters was attractive for cancer researchers and helped rationalize the broad range of biological activities that has been observed previously for the phorbol esters. However, could we attribute all the biological effects induced by phorbol esters to the activation of the function of protein kinase C. The gel overlay experiment using [3H]12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, for example, did not give a single band of protein kinase C, suggesting that we must have more pharmacological tools for elucidating the function of protein kinase C. Therfore we have started to synthesize a specific inhibitor of protein kinase C. Since synthesizing H-7 in 1986,4 we have succeeded in utilizing the inhibitor as an affinity ligand and could purified protein kinase C reproducibly. By using this enzyme preparation, we have determined that structure of isozyme of protein kinase C and obtained monoclonal antibodies against three isozymes. We established enzyme immunoassay method and determined tissue distribution of these three isozymes.

Then you have gestational diabetes. Mines was 108, my doctor said it s…
The one hour test is a screening, but it's not usually considered diagnostic of gestational diabetes unless you get a score of 190+. Some Drs set the cutoff at 200. It's designed to be easy to fail so it catches as many people as possible that could have a problem.
A number like the one OP got is considered above normal and is a reason to have the 3 hour test, but I don't think most Drs would diagnose her with Gestational Diabetes based on that score without further testing.
My 1 hr post meal was 127 and my Dr said that was high and told me I had to take the 3hr fasting test. I'm confused because their reference range was 60-139. I was also told to follow a diabetic diet until my results came back from the 3hr glucose test. Not looking forward to it 😕
I had gestational diabetes in my third pregnancy and I was seriously shocked by it—I had very little weight gain during the pregnancy, I was in the normal BMI range, I’ve always eaten healthy and exercised, and I literally have zero risk factors for it. What I found was that while it was inconvenient, it was doable and not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. It was stressful in the beginning and I had trouble with my fasting blood sugar, but my doctor put me on glyburide and that took a lot of the stress off. If you end up having it, don’t panic! You can do it!! I’m expecting I’ll have it again, I’m taking the test this week.

text: Last year my kids wouldn’t touch fish. I used to make them a separate meal every time we had fish. I finally had enough. I really hated making two separate meals so I decided to make them eat it. There was a lot of whining and crying until finally they got used to it and ate it. Now they like fish more than they like chicken. (I never in a million years thought that would happen). So now we are having fish twice a week and I LOVE it! Now, if only I can get them to eat certain vegetables…..
