14 Shades of Risks: Navigating the Risk Landscape in Asia-Pacific
The Asia-Pacific region (APAC) has become the world's primary driver of global economic growth.
While often referred to as one economic bloc, the Asia-Pacific region is home to countries and territories that are vastly different from each other in terms of demographics, economic development stages, political institutions and cultures. This regional heterogeneity translates to a diversified set of risk concerns in different countries and territories.

Life is vibrant and quite bright here these days and not for any particular reason; just sort of humming along. The amazing "powder" finished falling this morning and it is spectacularly beautiful. The trees are giggling and bristling from the gusts of wind and the brilliant sunny snow crystals remind us that we are smack -- in the middle of a "harsh" winter!
I am surfing twitter like long board champion surfer, Laird Hamilton and I am loving the mammoth swells of activity! It is quick and fast and when I have a thought or idea, I just zip zip and it is out there. It is such a Love Fest (our kind of unconditional love Fest) too. I am quite delighted to be receiving "I am following your tweet" emails that have been revving up my creative writing engine! I have been blessed with interest from an online life coach from Missoula MT, a vitamin health nut as well as Dr. from NYC, and a radio host from Vancouver BC, to name a few.
You can be sure that I am stalking Deepak Chopra (my favorite Hindu) and the wonderful Jenny McCarthy! I also really enjoy Russell Simmons from www.globalgrind.com , can anyone say Def Jam records? He is a is hip hop mogul turned yoga devotee.
So if you guys don't mind a bit of redundancy, here are some sling shots from my Twitter account - "Get Over It Please", account kkshaw47.
- Getting Over Myself is the best cocktail ever, which means nurturing everyone and everything around me, I am so lucky!
- When I remove myself from interpersonal situations, everything becomes very clear to me.
- My intent is to nurture my husband when he is struggling, instead of becoming stressed and making it about me.
- Getting Over Myself is becoming thoughtful and mindful of others that requires non ego spiritual guidance, what a relief from myself!
- The world is about everyone & everyone else, what can I do for you today?What do you need? We're on it.
- Get Over Yourself when you always do what you want to do and are content due to some one's boredom or sadness.
- Get Over Yourself while defending yourself for all of your bullshit all day long - even when you are right!
- Get Over yourself and tell your mom/husband/child/friend that you love them and that they are beautiful , because you do and they are.
- Get Over Yourself and stop believing your own lies, sorry we are all over it.
- Get Over Yourself for being angry at someone because they are angry at you first (within reason), sorry that is bullshit.
- When in conflict, why not turn inward and think of our responsibility? Why blame others? We're over it.
I will love you till the cows come home, Love Quote. -Posted on Twitter by Lori Moreno
Isn't she so dear for that? I will never get over that wonderful saying, because it is true!
Lastly, one of the greatest lessons in my life (where architecture, religion, poetry, writing, etc.) all came together in the most perfect circle for me was the great master and ground breaking Joseph Campbell. No one compares to his happiness and clarity, period.
Joseph John Campbell (March 26, 1904 – October 30, 1987) was an American mythologist, writer and lecturer, best known for his work in comparative mythology and comparative religion. His work is vast, covering many aspects of the human experience. His philosophy is often summarized by his phrase: "Follow your bliss."[1]
- Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where there were only walls.
- I don't have to have faith, I have experience.
- Life is without meaning. You bring the meaning to it. The meaning of life is whatever you ascribe it to be. Being alive is the meaning.
- One way or another, we all have to find what best fosters the flowering of our humanity in this contemporary life, and dedicate ourselves to that.
As I sign off and finish the best cocktail ever, Getting Over Myself, (with is so much love to give, people to listen to and laughter to share) I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for reading Get Over Yourself in your busy days, how busy is 2011, incredible right? This sounds contrived, but the more I love and listen to my family, even in conflict, ask them what I can do to love them better (this goes for Finney too, oh my dear that Finney!) , life just keeps getting better. Maybe it is Finney's unconditional love that started all of this in the first place. Its all how you look at it maybe...
Please let's pray for the children and animals, who need our love and protection at all times.
With Love and Sincerely,
PS You are all amazing today! Oh, let's not forget beautiful!

The Detwiler Fire on Thursday was threatening about 1,500 homes and other buildings, after already destroying 45 structures. It's not clear what type of buildings burned.
RELATED: Prepare NorCal: Disaster Preparedness Resources
The flames are near Highway 49, a historical route winding through Sierra Nevada foothills dotted with little towns that drew gold miners to California in the 1800s.
More than 3,000 firefighters are battling the 5-day-old blaze that has scorched 109 square miles, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said.
The fire has forced almost 5,000 people from homes in and around a half-dozen small communities, officials said.
Heavy smoke hung in the air over Mariposa, a town of 2,000 people with century-old wooden buildings, including what's touted as the oldest active courthouse west of the Rocky Mountains.
The fire got within a half-mile of Mariposa, but crews have been able to keep it out of the town, fire spokesman Jason Motta said.
RELATED: Bay Area teams help fight Detwiler Fire near Yosemite
"Most of the town of Mariposa has not been affected by anything other than the smoke," Motta said.
At its closest, the blaze was still about 35 miles from the boundary of Yosemite, where campgrounds are open, park spokesman Scott Gediman said.
The fire closed one of several roads into the park during its busy summer season, and rangers warned visitors with respiratory problems to be mindful of the smoky haze over the park's landmark Half Dome rock face, Gediman said.
Yosemite does not appear at risk from the fire, which was moving south, away from the park, fire spokesman Jordan Motta said.
Tony Munoz, 63, and his wife, Edna Munoz, 59, were ordered out of their home outside Mariposa on Tuesday. They grabbed clothes, medicine and their three dogs and a cat before fleeing.
Driving out on narrow, congested roads, "you couldn't even see the sun" in the ash-filled sky, said Tony Munoz, a school custodian.
Downtown Mariposa was empty except for firefighters and other emergency workers. Fierce flames were visible on slopes about a mile away.
Record rain and snowfall in the mountains this winter abruptly ended California's five-year drought. But that has increased the challenge for crews battling flames feeding on dense vegetation.
"There's ample fuel and steep terrain," Cal Fire spokeswoman DeeDee Garcia said. "It makes firefighting difficult."
Statewide, about 6,000 firefighters were battling 17 wildfires, including about 2,200 at the fire near Yosemite.
Gov. Jerry Brown has declared an emergency, bolstering the state's resources to battle the fire.
ABC7 News contributed to this story.
Acres burned: 70, 096 acres
Containment: 10 percent
Structures Threatened: 1,500
Structures Destroyed: 45 destroyed and 6 damaged
Evacuation orders are in place for:
- City of Mariposa, Mount Bullion Ridge Road from HWY 49N to CYA Road
- Old Toll Road between Corbett Creek Road and HWY 49N, including Corbert Creek Road.
- Mount Gains Road to No.9 Road including No.9 Road
- Mount Bullion Cut off Road and Agua Fria Road from HWY 49N to HWY 140
- HWY 49N to Baxby Bridge to Agua Fria Road; Area known as Mount Bullion
- HWY 49N from Mount Bullion Ridge Road to Old Toll Road
- Pendola Garden Road from HWY 49N to Old Toll Road (Exit via Old Toll Road only)
Evacuation Advisories are in effect for the following areas: All of CYA Road.
Red Cross Evacuation Shelter:
EV Free Church
50443 School House Road
Oakhurst, CA
Fire Information Line: (844) 668-3473
Road Closures
HWY-49 at HWY-132 (Coulterville Rd.) - Restricted access to locals with addresses in La Grange, Coulterville, or Greely Hill only
Bear Valley Rd. at Exchequer Rd.; Hornitos Rd. and Old Toll Rd.; HWY-49 and Mt Bullion Cutoff.; Mt. Gains Rd. at No.9 Rd.; Hwy 49 at Aqua Fria.; Hwy 140 at Aqua Fria.
The communities of Hunters Valley, Bear Valley, and Hornitos continue to be threatened as the fire encroaches on culturally and historically sensitive areas.
Traffic along HWY 41 & 49 will be impacted as a result of road closures on HWY 49. The fire continues to threaten power lines to the south of the incident, which supply power to Yosemite National Park.
Firefighters on the ground as well as aircraft are actively working to contain and suppress the fire. CAL FIRE Incident Management Team 4 assumed command of the incident at 1000 hrs. from the Madera, Mariposa, Merced Unit.

With thanks to my esteemed colleague, VAT expert John Voyez, for his insight. Any errors or omissions are entirely mine!
Well, what a lot of rubbish has been written in the press in the last week or two about the increased VAT rate – never let accuracy get in the way of a good headline !
Just for the record, there is no VAT on most children's clothing, no VAT on most basic food items, no VAT on train, bus and airplane fares, no VAT on books, newspapers and magazines, no VAT on residential housing construction, no VAT on most drugs and medicines, no VAT on betting and gaming, no VAT on education, no VAT on insurance or financial services, no VAT on ordinary postal services, no VAT on most sport activities, no VAT on entry to museums, no increase in VAT on a range of items including children's car seats, domestic fuel, contraceptives, energy saving equipment, products that help you stop smoking, and, finally, no VAT on cremation or burial (unlike other taxes, death is still VAT free) !
So post 4th January, it will not cost you a penny more at the weekend to slap on an anti- smoking patch, jump on the bus to go to Sainsbury's where you can buy some clothes for the kids, and at the same time buy most of the weekly shop, including a copy of Sporting Life, before picking up some aspirin to ward of the headache for when you drop in at the bookies on the way home and lose your savings (accrued VAT free) on the 2:30 at Epsom, followed on Sunday by a game of football at the local sports centre in the morning, and a trip to the museum (because you feel you should at least do one thing educational at the weekend), before finally falling asleep in your newly built Wimpey home in front of your brand new 90″ plasma 3D HD TV screen you have just bought, which unfortunately did cost you 2.5% more in VAT.
And, just for the record, if you are still feeling hard done by, most of our EU counterparts have for many years been paying VAT at 20%, and in some cases at a rate well in excess of 20%!
So VAT, exactly, is the problem?

Ritz Camera Warns of Possible Liquidation
Thursday, July 9, 2009
Ritz Camera, the ubiquitous national photo chain that got its start as an Atlantic City portrait studio 91 years ago, said yesterday it is unable to raise the cash it needs to operate through the summer.
The Beltsville-based firm, a victim of the economy and changing technology, has been attempting to reorganize since it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in February. The company said in court documents yesterday that it now hopes to sell its assets.
The documents, filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Del., say the company has been negotiating with two potential bidders who would take over all of its 370 stores. The company asked to schedule an auction for July 20.
If the effort to sell the company is not successful, according to the filing, Ritz is seeking permission to liquidate and close by July 24, to avoid paying $3 million in rent going into September.
The company already has shuttered about 400 stores and shut down its Boater's World Marine Centers. Retail analysts attributed the action to a dramatic decline in consumer spending for items such as cameras and boating gear as well as the marketplace's switch to digital photography, which is making photo processing obsolete.
The company is run by chief executive David Ritz, who dramatically expanded the chain after taking over the family business in 1969. David Ritz's father and uncle each ran separate photo businesses that later merged -- his father started his studio in 1918.
Ritz, through a spokesman, declined to comment.
The Ritz family "took a small business and grew it into a huge one. It's had a tremendous heyday, with tremendous growth," said Mark Millman, president of Millman Search Group, a Baltimore-based retail consulting and executive search firm.
"I'm surprised they couldn't make a go of it with the remaining stores," Millman added. "They were able to discard the most unprofitable stores and were left with the best and brightest stores."
Millman said a sale could be difficult because many of the 370 remaining stores are located in malls with high rents and declining foot traffic.
Gary Pageau, who publishes a magazine for the Photo Marketing Association, called Ritz an innovator in the industry who pioneered one-hour photo processing and several products, including photo books that are printed in the store an hour after a consumer sends digital images online. "He was able to build two national chains," Pageau said. "What they've done has never been done before and will never be done again."
According to the filing, Ritz "may not have sufficient availability to continue operating through the summer as a standalone entity and to purchase inventory required for the fall holiday season. " As a result, the company "believes that the time to maximize value through a sale process is now."
Tiffany Hall, a former employee of the Ritz store at 18th and L streets in Northwest Washington, said she isn't surprised by the store's troubles. She said she worked for Ritz for 10 years, mostly in Florida, and left shortly before the company declared bankruptcy in February.
Hall, who stopped in the store to get some wedding prints, said many photographers simply are not printing as many photos any more. Now, photographers can upload and e-mail the images digitally, or just print out the one or two they want, she said.
Staff writer Ylan Q. Mui and staff researcher Eddy Palanzo contributed to this report.

LONDON: Camilla Parker-Bowles -AKA - the Duchess of Cornwall's plans to surprise her husband with 60 different gifts on his 60th birthday came a cropper when it was discovered that a book containing nude pictures of the Duchess has gone AWOL.
The leather-bound volume contained nude photos not only of the Duchess but some taken with an equally nude Charles. In one shot, Camilla sits completely nude on a white horse while the future (?) King, dressed only in leather boots applies his crop to her backside. In another, a nude Camilla kneels in front of a nude, newly-crowned King Charles - complete with crown and sceptre.
An anonymous source who is privy to these photos is reputed to have said "These photos cover a period of 30 years, from the time they first met right up to their recent wedding anniversary. It's quite a selection with very little left to the imagination; if you know what I mean!"
Palace sources remained silent but word is out that a 'very generous' reward is being offered for the return of the photo album.
"Camilla really wanted this to be a special day for the man who has everything. This was meant to be a very special gift", said a close friend of the couple.

Lufthansa Aviation Centre located in the South West of Frankfurt lies on a thin strip between the motorway and Frankfurt Airport. Built as offices to house some 1800 staff, the building comprises eight, six storey glass office blocks positioned diagonally opposite to each other, with eight six storey atriums positioned diagonally opposite to them, in a checker pattern. In each of the eight giant atriums, gardens have been planted acting as both the lungs of the building and as noise barriers, allowing staff to open their office windows onto a quiet and tranquil space.
In 2006 I was contacted by Robert Smith at Aztec Modelmakers, Teddington, Middlesex to discuss the production of some neon tubes for a project that they were working on with the White Cube Gallery and the artist Cerith Wyn Evans. Robert came down to my workshop with Cerith's assistant and showed me thier 3D rendering of Cerith's design. The design itself was quite self explainitory, you're probably familiar with the inflight magazines found on most airplanes showing their flight destinations as large arcs across the globe; Cerith's idea was to reproduce all of Lufthansa'a flight paths around the globe in neon but remove the globe.
The whole sculpture was to have some 160 individual pieces of neon. 20mm Snow White tubes from Neon Products were used to allow an intense brightness combined with a degree of longevity. Aztec Modelmakers supplied full size templates for each individual section of glass allowing me to bend each neon tube to exactly the right length and diameter. Each of the neon tubes was powered by its own power supply provided by Mode Lighting. Tube lengths were kept to maximum of 6 foot with 120m/A elecrodes, allowing each power supply to produce 995 volts at 100m/A. Both tubing and electrodes were supplied by my favourite neon supplier Sign Tec Services in East Sussex. Each of the Mode power supplies was produced specially without it's casing, allowing Aztec to encase the units in beautiful, clear acrylic pods which hang suspended over the neon.
Aztec Modelmakers who were given the monumental job of designing the stainless steel structure which was to hold the neon tubes in place. With their considerable knowledge and understanding of engineering and metal work, Aztec produced a magnificent stainless steel frame following each of the lines of the neon and which itself is suspended from what might look to be the underside of a gigantic UFO. A work of art in itself, this huge structure caused some considerable problems as to how it was to be suspended within the glass atrium. Working closely with the architects and the engineers who constructed the building, this massive installation was eventually placed in pride of place giving motorway drivers a breif respite from thier daily grind.
You couldn't do that using LEDs.
Working with artists, curators, galleries and museums in the manufacture and installation of neon art and sculpture across the U.K. and Europe.

EXPO does Campania "felix" justice, among Mediterranean Diet, pizza and DOC wines.
It is known that the Mediterranean Diet, World Heritage acknowledged by UNESCO, is the best dietary regime for man since it better preserves health. A variety of flavours, scents, colours which are healty and contribute to good mood. A perfect synthesis of all these qualities, a symbol itself of Campania and of all Italy is pizza, made with few and simple, but genuine and quality, ingredients transformed by the skilful hands of a pizza chef for a feast of all senses.
The importance of this dish in the national gastronomic tradition is celebrate at Milan's Expo in a giant cooking show that on June 20th saw 80 components of the Italian National pizza chef team in the realization of a world-record sized Margherita pizza 1.5 km long. The pizza has been offered to 30.000 visitors and 300 metres were donated to Milan's Banco Alimentare.
Campania does justice for itself also in the wine section of the Expo, inside the Domus vini, at the ground floor of the VINO – A Taste of Italy pavilion. Here, all the phases of wine production can be observed and the best vine varieties are praised, 19 of which are from Campania.
Among the wines of Campania the Sorrento peninsula has a relevant position for the goodness of its products of excellence, such as olive oil, tomatoes, dairy products, and ancient traditional wines such as the ones from Gragnano, Lettere and Sorrento doc.
Local cuisine, such as the one at Bellevue Syrene, although open to contemporary contaminations and tendencies, it preserves the identity of the Sorrento territory, a world-wide symbol of beauty, culture and happiness.

The lemons of Sorrento and the inimitable Limoncello
The distinctive product of the Amalfi Coast, a real made in Sorrento nectar of the gods.
Yellow as the sun, fragrant, juicy, main character of the Sorrento landscape and of the Amalfi coast gastronomy, the lemon "femminiello", also called oval lemon for its shape is one of the most typical world-known products of this area. Rich in vitamin C is also extremely versatile in the kitchen where it can enhance every traditional dish. It can be found in almost every garden of the peninsula, along with the oranges, another precious fruit of the land of Mermaids.
The lemon of Sorrento may be used in many ways but the most popular one is definitely the Limoncello. It should be mentioned that there isn't only one recipe for this delicious liqueur, and in the Sorrento peninsula every family has their own doses and proportions among water, alcohol, and sugar. Here's our version of the recipe for who wants to try and prepare their own home-made Limoncello, with no fear of being immodest we can claim that an excellent result is guaranteed.
If you want to bring a friend a special cadeau from Sorrento , in Hotel you can find a space dedicated to the exhibition and sale of a great Limoncello of Sorrento Peninsula .
• 1 l of pure alcohol
• 1 l of water
• 500 g of sugar
• 8-10 Sorrento lemons
Wash and peel the lemons being careful only to cut the yellow part of the skin, since the white one tends to be bitter. Cut the skin in fillet-shaped pieces and put them to infuse with the alcohol in a sealed container for three days. Then put the water and the sugar in a pan and make them boil until the sugar is completely dissolved (it takes around 8-10 minutes). Once the obtained syrup has cooled, thoroughly mix it with the alcohol, then filter and bottle it. If you can't resist you may try it at this point, but it would be best to wait a few days.

Bloggers are everywhere these days. It seems that every time you search for something online, blogs turn up in the search results. But, creating a really successful and worthy blog requires a good plan and continuous input. The advice in the following article will help you get your blog started on the right foot.
Be available for your readers at all times. Make a habit or routine for your readers and yourself. Consistent communication with your readers can help establish a strong connection between you and your readers that results from the exchange of ideas with one another. Remember that other people out there will be disappointed if you give up on your blog.
Make your readers feel as if you are ever present for them. Try to make this a habit for both you and your readers. If you've built a connection with readers, you can be available to them more often. When you start feeling like you want to give up, keep in mind that your readers will be very disappointed.
Blog often. Many new to blogging make the mistake of starting up a blog and then failing to update it enough. When readers are not given frequent updates, they may become bored. To keep your blogging audience captivated, blog every week and forward the update in emails.
Don't overuse things like plug-ins, ads, images, or keywords. Doing so will only get you flagged by a search engine, and it will erase all of the hard work that you are trying to do. Instead, write in a conversational tone that flows naturally.
Do not copy other people's articles. If you plagiarize, you will lose any sense of credibility that you had built up. You do not have to be a professional writer to find success with a blog. The main thing that you need is to be passionate about what you are writing.
Commenting on the posts other bloggers create can spark interest in the content you post on your blog. If you decide to use Google Reader, it is wise to have another folder within it in order to follow other blogs. Read your favorite blogs and comment on them regularly. Make sure your comments have value, but don't hesitate to comment if you have something to say.
Don't let blogging take over your life. If you do not give yourself time to do things away from you computer, you may experience burnout. Schedule in time to take a walk, see some friends or even just a 5 minute time out. This time will refresh you and let you create fresh content for your blog.
Make sure to blog on a regular basis. Many new to writing a blog make the mistake of starting up a blog and then failing to update it enough. People who were interested in the blog at first will soon become bored, as they wait for updated content. Make sure to blog at least weekly and notify your subscribers.
Find ways to make your blog stand out among the common crowd. Readers flock to content that they can't find anywhere else. Hard to locate information will do the same. Write about unique experiences or hobbies. Explain how widgets are made in a way that will really wow your readers. The idea behind this is to give potential visitors a reason to visit your blog as opposed to all the other ones out on the internet.
Free Sites
Look for other successful bloggers to guest write on your site. You will increase the interest in your blog by adding quality content. You'll also gain traffic from their blog to yours. Use several bloggers to do this and create more rich content.
As you develop your blog, think about buying a domain name of your own instead of utilizing free sites. Domains are very cheap, but do wonders for your professionalism. It is often a good idea to purchase a domain name suitable to your blog. There are free sites out there, but they'll likely have a URL that doesn't communicate what your blog is all about.
Read and respond to the feedback given on your post without letting it effect you emotionally. No matter the topic, there will be people who have criticisms. Such comments should be viewed as helpful ways in which you can sharpen your skills. If you get a nasty or unfair comment, simply reply graciously and continue your work. By doing this, you will show your readers that you know how to take the high road and build their respect, as well as your readership.
Have a difference to your blog that is not seen elsewhere. Readers will be attracted to unique content. Visitors will also be drawn to rare material. Blog about some uncommon experience that few other people have written about. Give intimate details of the way something is made. Ideally, you should provide readers with a good reason to click through to your blog, instead of your competition, when they're looking for certain kinds of information.
Use lists to communicate ideas effectively in your blogs. Lists are important whether your blog is about recipes and cooking, or whether it is about what you need for overhauling your Volkswagon van. Lists are useful for organizing and highlighting a post's most important information, and readers appreciate them.
Write posts that are not overly wordy or complicated. Providing the detail your readers are seeking is important, but too much information can be boring. People who read blogs look for clear and concise information rather than complicated details. They are interested in the meat and bones of a subject and not a lot of fluffy garnishment!
You should make plans for attaching a mailing list to your blog just as soon as it is practical to do so. The sooner you begin, the more time you will have to grow your list. Having a list of email addresses of those who have opted in to read your content can be useful for additional communication opportunities in the future. Neglecting to build a mailing list for your blog at the outset is rarely a good idea.
Try recruiting guest bloggers to write for you. This can help you foster a good relationship with another blogger, and that could be helpful. Good relationships can really help you out. If you ever need a favor in the future, that relationship could be the means of obtaining it!
If you want to build and hold onto a large audience for your blog, good content is vital. Your blog needs posts that captivate, inform, and entertain your readers. Users will return if you provide honest and high quality content.
Update your blog as often as possible to give regular readers more reasons to return. Some of the best blogs update at least once daily. If you are intimidated by having to write something new every day, consider writing enough posts for five or six weeks before you let your blog go live. This ensures that you have plenty of posts on-hand for the times when you can't come up with something new.
A topic that excites your interest and passion is particularly important when you make a blog. Your content will be more interesting to your readers, if it is about something that you care about. You will gain a stronger, more dedicated fan base and your blog will grow exponentially.
Unique Keywords
Choose unique and less-competitive keywords. Using the same common keywords used by other sites will just make your blog get lost in the shuffle. To get your reader's attention, you must be unique.
As you select keywords to use in your blog posts, it's crucial that you select unique keywords that don't have too much competition. Unique keywords allow you to rise high in the search engine results, leading to more visitors. If you would like to attract readers, be unique.
After you have chosen the best keywords for your topic, you should make every effort to include them in your content, placing them in bullet lists and emphasizing them with bold or italic formatting. You will increase your rankings in search engines, and your readership. This tip should definitely be remembered because it is very helpful.
Do not attempt to write paragraph upon paragraph of uninteresting, uninspired content. You need to write informative content that is right for your blog. You won't succeed if you don't have valid information. Always remember that your content is key to success.
One of the things you must remember with your blog is to enjoy it! Avoid boring writing by paying attention to the topics you choose to write about. Always choose topics that actually interest you rather than writing something because you feel you should be writing something. Choose a topic you love, and enjoy yourself while writing about it! Let those creative juices flow, and you will find that others will flock to your site!
Font size is crucial in blog posting. Since your blog's content is the most important feature, you must determine the best font size. You want to achieve the perfect balance, avoiding a font that is so big that it overtakes the whole page or so tiny that your readers find it difficult to read the text.
Be certain you keep your keywords italicized and bolded. That will help your keywords stand out to all of your readers, and is also good for search engine spiders. If a keyword is unique, more readers will be intrigued and click on it.
Make use of tabbed areas for the articles you most want people to read. You can also highlight your key articles above your sidebars. You can add in the articles you believe are your best for the various categories of content on your site. This gives your readers easy access to your best work, thereby increasing your click rate.
Your blog should have a contact page that is easy to find. Make it clear how people can contact you by setting up a separate "contact me" page. Your readers could have some very valuable insight and suggestions, so give them a way to share.
Put up new posts on a regularly scheduled basis. Running A Blog on specific days will give your reader's an expectation that will help remind them when to search for your input. Your readers will appreciate knowing what to expect from you, and they will devour any fresh content you provide. Posting about diverse topics still relevant to your niche will keep content fresh and interesting.
Break up your blog posts into smaller pieces. Blogs which are too long can bore the reader, at times. It is essential to break down the segments into smaller, easily digestible portions.
Incorporate a link-building feature as part of your blog. When paired with your blog, this is something simple to do that can help you receive more visitors and earn more money when writing a blog.
You have to decide if your blog will have advertisements. Advertisements are a common way for bloggers to make money. The problem with allowing advertising is, well, it's advertising. Your readers will be able to see that making money plays some role in your motivation for blogging, and you cannot deny this or control their reactions to it.
Enhance the appeal of the blog by including videos. Don't rely on videos, however. You still need to post high-quality text content on a regular basis. Provide written content that describes what happens along with the video so your reader knows what to expect when they click play. That way, the videos on your site will be associated to keywords.
Set a regular schedule for your blog postings. If your readers know to expect content on certain days, their anticipation of your next post will increase. Visitors will appreciate the consistency and make reading your fresh content a part of their schedules. This will be true as long as you avoid becoming repetitive and dull.
As you know, blogging is an important part of the online world. While blogs are started for a variety of reasons, they all have the goal of getting their message across to their readers. If you put the advice in this article to work for you, you will be able to start a blog that lets you communicate with the people you hope to reach.
Keep SEO in mind when choosing your blogging theme. A theme like this will bring your blog plenty of search engine traffic, and should also allow your site to load quickly. In this age where speed is king, your readers will not want to wait around while your graphics and plug-in laden blog loads. They will head back to the search engine and look for another blog before they ever see what your content has to offer.

We will be covering Chicago's down ballot races all week leading up to the election on November 8th. Keep an eye on our site to learn more about what you're voting for!
Judicial Races
There are judges on the ballot for the state-level Illinois Appellate Court, and the county-level Cook County Circuit Court.
Illinois Appellate Court
- The intermediate court in Illinois – it hears appeals from verdicts reached at the trial level (circuit courts throughout the state). Its decisions, in turn, can be appealed to the Illinois Supreme Court.
- Judges serve 10 year terms; incumbents run in nonpartisan retention elections, and can be elected for subsequent 10 year terms.
- Candidates on the 2016 ballot are running for retention only.
- A 60% "yes" vote keeps them in office.
Cook County Circuit Court
- The trial-level courts throughout Cook County; may hear trials on anything from traffic cases to child custody hearings to criminal cases.
- Serve six year terms; incumbents run in nonpartisan retention elections, and can be elected for subsequent six-year terms.
- There are a handful of contested races on the 2016 ballot – these judges need a simple majority to win.
- Judges up for retention need 60% "yes" votes to stay in office.
Why is it important?
- Judges rule on cases that can affect our lives for years to come.
- It's hard to remove a bad judge from the bench.
- Cook County voters haven't removed a sitting judge since 1990, though there have been many outrageously incompetent or derelict judges.
- Many voters don't bother to vote for judges, and others vote based on gender or ethnically identifiable names or by political party affiliation.1
Judges with Poor Ratings
To provide some guidance on the long list of names that will be unfamiliar to most, here we've focused only on the races most worthy of note: 1) contested races, 2) judges who received ratings of "Not Qualified"/"Not Recommended" by the Alliance of Bar Associations for Judicial Screenings, or 3) have opted not to participate in the review process. (Participating bar associations and additional resources are listed at the end of this post.)
All Cook County judicial candidates NOT mentioned below received approvals from all bar associations – you can download their full review here.
Things to note:
- Candidates who received a "Not Recommended" (NR) rating for not participating in the review process should be noted – some choose not to seek the bar associations' recommendation because a) they're not qualified, so they won't get it, or b) they've been clouted onto the ballot, so they don't need it. Or both.2
- Appellate Court judge Joy Virginia Cunningham (running for retention) received unanimous "Yes" recommendations from all 11 bar associations. Appellate candidates Eileen O'Neill Burke and Bertina E. Lampkin (running uncontested) both received ratings of "Qualified" or better from all 11 bar associations.
- Candidates with clearly more favorable ratings are highlighted in bold green.
- Negatively reviewed candidates who are running unopposed are included FYI.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Isaiah Thomas was close to going back into the game after the Lakers got within 13 points at the start of the fourth quarter.
Instead, the Celtics reserves made sure Thomas stayed on the bench by extending the lead to 22 points.
Thomas finished with 18 points and Boston rode a 70-point first half to a 115-95 rout of Los Angeles on Friday night.
"We were just making the right plays, moving the ball from side to side," Thomas said. "Making the easy plays for the most part."
Jae Crowder scored 10 of his 14 points in the first half, when the Atlantic Division-leading Celtics shot 51 percent on the way to opening their road trip 2-0.
"We were really moving the ball, we were playing with great purpose and we got the ball to the right guys in the right situations," Boston coach Brad Stevens said.
Jordan Clarkson led the Lakers with 20 points off the bench in the third quarter in their sixth straight loss. They haven't won since before the All-Star break and have dropped four in a row at Staples Center.
"I love how we've been practicing, but we've just got to translate it to the game," said Julius Randle, who had 13 points.
Trailing by 31 in the third, Clarkson singlehandedly cut the Lakers' deficit to 15 by scoring their final 13 points. The Celtics managed just four points over the final 4 1/2 minutes of the quarter, but took a 93-78 lead into the fourth.
"We knew the game was out of hand, but I was just trying to compete," Clarkson said.
Thomas drew aahs from the crowd with a pretty assist before the Lakers' run, tossing the ball off the glass to set up Jaylen Brown's dunk.
"It's embarrassing for us to see," said rookie Brandon Ingram, who took and missed his only two shots of the game in the fourth quarter.
That's the effect Lakers coach Luke Walton was hoping Thomas' lob had on his young team.
"This team is showboating on our home court," Walton said. "If we're not running back on defense, rub it in the players' faces. Hopefully, it (ticks) the players off."
The Lakers went cold early in the fourth and the Celtics capitalized with a 10-0 run that extended their lead to 105-82. Brown scored six in a row in the spurt while Thomas watched from the bench.
"It all came from getting stops," said Avery Bradley, who had 15 points. "When you are able to get stops, you are able to get steals or rebounds and push the ball out. It is fun playing that way."
Boston closed the first half on a 19-6 run, with five different players contributing, led by Thomas' six points. A pair of 3-pointers by Nick Young accounted for the Lakers' only points.
D'Angelo Russell added 17 points for the Lakers, while Al Horford had 17 for the Celtics.

Dec. 29 - A suicide bombing is the third deadly attack in two months the region around Sochi, venue of the upcoming Winter Olympics. Rough Cut. (No Reporter Narration).
PLEASE NOTE: THIS EDIT CONTAINS CONVERTED 4:3 MATERIAL ROUGH CUT. (NO REPORTER NARRATION). STORY: A female suicide bomber blew herself up in the entrance hall of a Russian train station on Sunday, killing at least 13 people in the second deadly attack in the space of three days as the country prepares to host the Winter Olympics. The state Investigative Committee said the bomber detonated her explosives in front of a metal detector just inside the main entrance of Volgograd station. Volgograd is a city of around 1 million people, about 430 miles (690 km) northeast of Sochi, where the Winter Olympics - a major prestige project for President Vladimir Putin - will open on Feb. 7. It lies close to Russia's North Caucasus, a strip of mostly Muslim provinces plagued by near-daily violence in a long-running Islamist insurgency. An attack by a female suicide bomber killed seven people in Volgograd on Oct. 21. On Friday, a car bomb killed three people in the southern Russian city of Pyatigorsk, 270 km (170 miles) east of Sochi.

Now that the first Jovian Wars Kick Starter is over the development work turns back to Heavy Gear Blitz!
Going forward this will be the pattern where we here in Dream pod 9 work on the prep for kick starters, work on the kick starter and then work on fulfilling the kickstarter while preparing for the next kickstarter. The next kick starter for Dream Pod 9 will be the next three factions for Heavy Gear Blitz.
The most common theme I'm seeing online and on the forums these days is "I got my kickstarter stuff, what do I get next?"
That's a pretty easy question for me to answer. What do you get next? Here's my priority list of what to get next. Feel free to adjust this list as much as you like.
The current FAQ and Errata for Heavy Gear is an ongoing project. Currently the types of issues that are coming up are knock on effects for the sub lists and a few minor notes for the rules. Largely the issues that are discovered are resolved because you guys, the players, take action by posting to the forums in the Development forum.
This feedback is very important because player feedback vastly improves the quality of the game. Comments help to catch more issues than just our eyes alone can. Part of this is that I simply can't play test every interaction and every rule as completely as you, the player community, can. For a very simple reason. I'm biased.
There is an interesting aspect about Heavy Gear as a game where the Gears are piloted by humans. Ignore the fact that it is really the computer that does most of the driving, a thing a bit higher tech than what Volvo and Daimler are demonstrating. So who can pilot a gear and who does it best? (Hint, in real life it is anyone!)
One fact that we accept with Gears is that they are mass produced on an assembly line, but they are still machines, each one vastly more expensive than equipping an infantry soldier. You don't throw just any person into your machine if you want it to fight at full effectiveness.

I prefer to call this event "The Open Championship", as it rightly is dubbed, but I've discovered that more people perform a web search for the British Open. So I'm a slave to web traffic, sue me.
This year's rendering of the classic event is to be held at Turnberry, not the most frequent venue in the rota, but one that's produced some notable winners, namely Watson, Norman, and Price. Playing at just over 7,200 yards to a par 70, the course has undergone some changes since last held here in 1994. Most evident are some added bunkers and green enhancement will serve to increase the challenge that is links golf, a unique challenge, especially when Mother Nature rears her head, a distinct possibility in these parts of the world. Weather, (read rain), and wind can change the character of this contest and turn it into an exercise in survival rather than a comparison of perfect golf shots. Turnberry is one of the few where errant shots can land in the sea. Pebblesque you might say.
That all said, let's boil down the field and pick some possible winners. I'll handicap the top 17 with current odds supplied by Ladbrokes, noted betting house, with more than a vested interest in this event, the quintessential European contest. Ready? Let's get going......
Tiger Woods, 3:1 - What can you say? World's best, smallest odds. Only negative, never played here. Practice rounds this week will have to suffice. Game transitions to links rather well. Should win.
Sergio Garcia, 21:1 - Don't understand the 2nd least odds. Not exactly peaking. Could win I suppose. Probably won't.
Ian Poulter, 26:1 - Like him better than Garcia. That makes him a could win without the "I suppose."
Lee Westwood, 26:1 - Overdue for a major. Bit of a home field advantage with no name Scots in the mix. Might win.
Padraig Harrington, 26:1 - Going for 3rd consecutive British. Too bad he's slumped of late. Great time to break out. Won't however.
Rory McIlroy, 26:1 - Extreme talent. If in contention will have to deal with pressure cooker. Will win plenty, just not this one.
Anthony Kim, 34:1 - Not sure he can adjust his ball flight downward in expected wind. Better on target courses. Won't win.
Hunter Mahan, 34:1 - Last round was a 62. Coming into his own. May very well win.
Henrik Stenson, 34:1 - I figure him as a contender whenever/wherever he tees it. Needs to overcome major hump. Split on Henrik, not sure.
Jim Furyk, 34:1 - Can't ever overlook him. Don't think he can, but wouldn't surprise.
Martin Kaymer, 34:1 - Coming off a win last week. Brilliant at times. It's possible.
Paul Casey, 34:1 - Should be one of the favorites in my opinion. Could win.
Ernie Els, 41:1 - Maybe the Ernie of years ago. Not this Ernie. Won't win.
Geoff Ogilvy, 41:1 - Rather pedestrian year so far for Geoff. Still, if you can win one major....... Could win.
Ross Fisher, 41:1 - Nice player. As close to a home game as he'll get. Can't win, but wish he could.
Retief Goosen, 41:1 - Surprised to see him this far down the list. Game's coming around. Major wins in his resume. Could win.
Steve Stricker, 41:1 - Strick just won. Coming in hot, but a couple days late to see the course. Possible, but doubt it.

Welcome to ApplebyTexas.com
Hi and welcome! Let's start by clearing a few things up....no, this isn't the website of a major Texas city but instead just my personal website. In case you are wondering if Appleby is even a real place, yes it is. Appleby is a small town located in the Piney Woods of Deep East Texas in Nacogdoches County. It is a tiny place now but long ago Appleby was a booming railroad town. Check out the link titled Appleby History to learn more about this great little place.

Chesterton Tribune
Countywide cabinet announced for economic development
A Porter County "Economic Development Cabinet" has been created to direct a
county-wide strategic plan focusing on job creation and shovel-ready
development sites.
Porter County Commissioner John Evans, R-North, Valparaiso Mayor Jon Costas,
Portage Mayor-elect Jim Snyder, and Jim Jorgenson of the Porter County
Economic Development Alliance announced the new initiative this morning.
The point of the Economic Development Cabinet is to unify and coordinate the
mass of studies and plans conducted over the years, the county's municipal
redevelopment commissions and related organizations, and the various pots of
CEDIT funding to create a "Strategic Plan for Jobs," according to a joint
Evans, noting that these groups already work together well, said that the
cabinet will "engage experts in the field to assist in bringing the
information together, develop strategies and goals, and identify funding
resources and an organizational structure to execute the plan."
"Now is the time for this plan in order to continue the momentum created by
the Fronius project in Portage, the Northcoast expansion south of
Valparaiso, and the new $225-million state-of-the-art Porter hospital that
will open next year," Evans said.
"We have unique and valuable assets and natural resources throughout the
county that we need to study and understand how they can be positioned in an
overall county economic development strategy that will benefit all of the
communities and citizens of Porter County," Evans added.
Evans said that the local economy "is starting to show some signs of
recovery" and that the Economic Development Cabinet will put the county "in
a position to be proactive in marketing for new job creation, to help
existing businesses expand, and to create shovel-ready sites for new and
expansion opportunities."
The cabinet will have nine seats. Five members will be selected by the
Porter County Commissioners—including a representative of the Northwest
Indiana Building Trades—and Costas and Snyder will each make one
appointment. The two Porter County appointees to the Northwest Indiana
Regional Development Authority will also be asked to serve.
Applicants for appointment must be able to demonstrate at least five years
of professional experience in at least one of the these areas: regional or
local economic development; business or finance; planning, engineering,
transportation, or public utilities.
No elected officials will be eligible for appointment to the cabinet. "This
group needs to be able to do its work and we need to get out of the way,"
Evans remarked.
Letters of application should be sent to Evans, Costas, and Snyder and must
be submitted by Thursday, Jan. 5.
Evans hopes to announce the appointments by Jan. 15 and to see the cabinet
convene immediately thereafter.
The process is expected to cost $100,000 or more, with the county
contributing 75 percent of the funding. Local municipalities will be asked
to make up the difference.
The cabinet will sunset "when its work is complete, 12 to 18 months from
now, Evans said. "We don't have time to waste. We need to get this going

RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Felician College senior Aimee Lopez (Riverbank, Calif./Riverbank) has been chosen as the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) Softball Player of the Week for the period ending Mar. 1, the CACC announced today. Lopez was honored as part of the first set of CACC softball weekly awards for 2015.
Lopez started each game of Felician's 2-3 week at shortstop. She went 8 for 16 (.500) with four runs scored and four RBI, adding a double and a home run for a .750 slugging percentage. All of Lopez's damage came while batting in the No. 8 spot in the line-up.
More information is available at http://static.psbin.com/o/f/9h1z2v7fdow62h/SOFT_1_3-2.pdf.
Lopez is a 2011 graduate of Riverbank High. She is Felician's all-time leader in triples with 14 for her collegiate career. Her younger sister, junior catcher Amanda Lopez (Riverbank, Calif./Riverbank) is a Golden Falcon teammate.
Also on Monday, Felician freshman outfielder Alicia DeFlaviis (Cherry Hill, N.J./Cherry Hill West) was named to the CACC Weekly Honor Roll. Baseball junior pitcher John Holland (Jackson, N.J./Jackson Liberty) and freshman outfielder Matt Diesel (Massapequa Park, N.Y./Massapequa) were named to that sport's CACC Weekly Honor Roll as well.
Felician softball is guided by second-year head coach Chris Foye of Verona. Lopez, DeFlaviis, and the Golden Falcons (2-3, 0-0) are next in action on Tuesday, when they continue their visit to the Dot Richardson Spring Games with contests against the University of Findlay and nationally-ranked Rollins College in Clermont, Fla.
Felician College, the Franciscan College of New Jersey, is a liberal arts, coeducational Catholic college founded in 1942 and sponsored by the Felician Sisters. True to its mission, Felician College welcomes a diverse student population and embraces its educational needs.

Ten Ways to Use Nutritional Yeast
When I first joined the vegan community, I kept hearing about this mysterious stuff called nutritional yeast. I found it in the bulk bins at my local grocery store, and I bought a few scoops of the flaky, yellow substance. The next step: learning what the heck to do with it!
First of all, what exactly is nutritional yeast?
Affectionately known as "nooch" in the veg community, nutritional yeast, often a strain of saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a deactivated yeast in powder or flake form that is sold commercially as a food product. It is grown on molasses and then harvested, washed, and dried with heat to kill or "deactivate" it. It contains folic acid, selenium, zinc, and protein, and it is often fortified with vitamin B12. It is not the same as other yeasts, such as brewer's yeast, and should not be substituted for any other type. It is a unique ingredient with a flavor that is often described as nutty, cheesy, savory, or "umami." Read on for ten great ways to use nutritional yeast.
- On pasta dishes. Nooch can be used in place of parmesan cheese as a pasta topping.
- In soups and gravies. Just a tablespoon or two of nutritional yeast enriches any soup or gravy, adding depth to the flavor.
- To make a "cheese" sauce. For those who don't want dairy or don't tolerate it well, nutritional yeast is an excellent base for a "cheesy" sauce. (Check out my recipe for Nutritional Yeast Cheesy Sauce!)
- On pizza. Like with pasta, nooch can be used in the place of parmesan cheese on pizza. I tend to sprinkle it on liberally, especially since I usually eat my pizza without vegan cheese.
- In salad dressings. I'm a fan of using nutritional yeast in salad dressings – it gives them a rich, creamy, savory flavor. For a quick and easy dressing, add some nooch to equal parts apple cider vinegar and olive oil, plus some garlic and a little salt, and there you have it! A quick five ingredient dressing. Or try this Tahini Lime Dressing from Chef AJ and Plant-Based Dietitian Julianna Hever, it is delish!
- As a replacement for bread crumbs. In any recipe calling for bread crumbs, nooch can be used instead. It is an excellent binder, reduces carb content of the recipe, and tastes delicious.
- On kale chips. I love raw kale chips, and I sometimes make them in my dehydrator with a marinade that has nooch as one of the main ingredients. You can also make them in the oven on a low temperature setting.
- In a tofu scramble. On the weekends, I like to spend a little time in the kitchen and splurge by making a big brunch. Scrambled tofu is a favorite. Adding a couple tablespoons of nutritional yeast just prior to serving gives it a beautiful creaminess and richness of flavor.
- On popcorn. I'm addicted to organic popcorn lately – with melted vegan buttery spread and lots of nooch! It's better than movie theatre popcorn, I promise.
- And finally, my favorite (yes, I am a Southern girl): to make "cheese" grits! Grits are a Southern staple, and I will always love them, even though I don't add butter and cheese to them anymore. Instead, I add a little vegan buttery spread, salt, and nooch. It tastes divine, and it takes me back to my childhood in NC.
These are just a few of the hundreds of ways to use nutritional yeast. Be careful – it can be addictive, especially on popcorn! So, stock up and start experimenting.

I totally meant to post this on Monday, but life got in the way (boo outside life). But I know I'm not the only one excited for Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2!
As IMDB describes it, "Set to the backdrop of 'Awesome Mixtape #2,' Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 continues the team's adventures as they traverse the outer reaches of the cosmos. The Guardians must fight to keep their newfound family together as they unravel the mysteries of Peter Quill's true parentage. Old foes become new allies and fan-favorite characters from the classic comics will come to our heroes' aid as the Marvel cinematic universe continues to expand. "
Exciting, right?! I already know Nebula's going to play a bigger role in this film, so I'm looking forward to what they do with her character (plus, who doesn't love Karen Gillan?)!
I'm also not too familiar with the comics themselves, so the plot is going to be a total surprise to me.
Another reason I hate outside-of-blog life: it means I won't be able to see GotG2 until almost two weeks after it opens. To be fair, real life typically makes me wait longer to see movies in the theater, or once it comes out on DVD (or, in the case of Thor: The Dark World, I still haven't seen it. Please don't judge). So I'm happy to wait 10-ish days.
Don't worry-I'll post a recap post as soon as I see it, and not wait almost a week after I wanted to post like I did with this one!
Yay! You've reached the end of the post!

My Blind Brother, Who Went Insane
"The birds are God," he said. Laughing. He was Jesus. Somehow, it seems right—a man
who had never seen a bird, describing the incantations that way. Babblings. Like the
bells our mother hung on his door—the ones he'd feel for and shake too hard before
A smile. Unlike the unblind, he smiled only when actually happy.
Until we returned from backpacking in the Winds and heard the voicemail he left me:
"The birds aren't God." We found him; he was Einstein; he was on a cruise; he was
sweating; he was almost dead. Brain lost in bells.

Murderers' Row, Or: Exit Laughing

It isn't just the ball that great players can knock out of the park but the language. For those of us with a taste for malaprops of all sizes and shapes, whether gosh-awful or just off base, baseball may be a richer mine of mangled syntax than politics and
The position that seems to produce the richest crop of these howlers may be manager. For the dugout has as many characters as any position on the field. In baseball as in business, management is the place to look for the kind of lingo that sounds as if it's just survived a bad wreck.
That thought came back on reading of the death of
The undoubted leader and undisputed champion of this trio had to be Yogi Berra, whose language remains the gold -- well, brass -- standard of the trade. By now so many Berra-isms have entered the language that they constitute a dialect of their own, and to review them would to risk a sense of deja vu all over again.
It's hard to pick a favorite, but high on the list would be gems like, "Nobody goes there any more, it's too crowded," and "You can observe a lot just by watching." Can't argue with that. Yogi also had his take on the game itself: "Baseball is 90 percent mental and the other half is physical."
The English language never stood a chance when Yogi took it on, any more than pitchers did when they had to face Combs, Meusel, Ruth, Gehrig and then Lazzeri.
By now it scarcely matters whether Yogi Berra actually perpetrated these literary offenses. (The technical term for them may be

Senator Kefauver: "I was asking you, sir, why it is that baseball wants this bill passed."
Mr. Stengel: "I would say I would not know, but would say the reason why they would want it passed is to keep baseball going as the highest paid ball sport that has gone into baseball and from the baseball angle, I am not going to speak of any other sport. I am not here to argue about other sports, I am in the baseball business. It has been run cleaner than any business that was ever put out in the one hundred years at the present time. I am not speaking about television or I am not speaking about income that comes into the ballparks: You have to take that off. I don't know too much about it. I say the ballplayers have a better advancement at the present time."
There, that cleared everything up. After an interminable hour or two of similar testimony, the distinguished senator from

Now that was masterful. And concise. There are times in congressional testimony as in design that less is more.

This seasonal herbaceous plant can grow until 70-90 cm heights. The upper part of the leaf is dark green in color while the lower part is light green in color, smooth and arranged. The leaf also oval in shape. The stem is green and has many branches.
Hempedu Bumi leaf can used as the remedy to lower the high blood pressure pressure, besides to cure diabetes, antiinflammation, antibacterial, antivirus, relieve fever and as the phlegm liquefier. It is also used to improve defecation, destroy the worms in digestive system and fasten the blood clotting.
The method to made it as the medicine is by braising the leaf to drink the water. The leaf can cure wound by grinding it and paste it at the wound. Chemical substances in the leaf can brake down the fat molecules that present at the blocked bloodstream that cause the blood pressure to increase. The braised leaf water that has bitter taste trigger it to brake down the lipids molecules.
However, the taste does not attract most of Malaysians. They are more interested to sweet and salty tastes. The excess of sweet and salty can lead to severe diseases but if we balance the tastes is much better for health. This plant also suitable for insects bites. The easiest method is take a few of the leaves and crush them. After that, rub them at the bitten place.
Hempedu Bumi is more popular in treating high blood pressure and fever. The usual method is take a few leaves and clean them. Then, immerse the leaves in warm water and wait until it becomes lukewarm. After that, drink the water. It is quite bitter, especially for those who first time drink the water. Bear in mind, drink once per day.
