Consciousness In The Cell
Cells of the Immune System Have Been Created with Large Memories
1. Bacterial waste products spread out.
When cells receive news ofmicrobial attack, they immediately warn the immune system.
Whenever you get an infection—for example, when microbes invade an open wound—cells of the immune system are immediately activated. These defensive cells, known as macrophages, identify the area of infection in the least amount of time and initiate a response against microbe attack and then hasten to this area. Macrophages are sensitive to a number of changes. For example, they identify bacterial waste in a given area, along with the presence of destructive substances produced by infected tissue, as well as factors involved in blood clotting. If macrophages couldn't identify any changes in infected tissue, they wouldn't be able to respond to the innumerable number of dangers the body faces every day.
But here is something interesting: Most macrophages are coming face-to-face with such an attack for the first time. If so, how did these microscopic living cells learn what constitutes danger? Have they had training in this matter?
Obviously, it's impossible for these microscopic macrophages to have been educated in any way. All this information has been in their memory since the macrophages first came into being. A power has given them this memory and inspired them with the knowledge of how to protect the body from outside enemies. The One Who has acquainted them with the impact of attacks from outside is the Lord of the worlds, Who created them together with this knowledge—that is, God.
When we hurt ourselves, we are certain that the wound will soon heal. But how few of us even think of who heals that wound?

Luxury Resort
I love this fragrance! I use it in my riverfront home to give it a woodsy clean scent. The scent reminds me of stays at top luxury resorts.
Was this review helpful?
Yes No
Earthy and woodsy
My husband and I love this fragrance. If you like woodsy smells this one is for you. It's a nice strong scent.
The Clean Outdoors Comes Inside
I took a chance with Bitter Orange & Cedar, a new fragrance to me - I am/was a total fan of Eucalyptus in the home but WOWEE! Bitter Orange & Cedar is FABULOUS! Even cooking & doggie odors magically vaporize. And I feel so revitalized with the scent of the Bitter Orange. This is one of my new best friends in fragrances.
Wonderful scent for any room
Added this to the room spray I'd purchased earlier and it's perfect to carry on the scent and keep it lingering long afterward. The scent is warm and woodsy with wonderful smooth citrus notes to compliment it perfectly. One of my favorites for the fall. Lasts a long time without being overpowering. Love it!
This scent is spicy, sweet, woodsy, citrus. Holiday/Masculine is the best description I can come up with. I bought it for my hubby's office, and it's made his whole floor smell delicious. There's no mistaking the smell when I get off the elevator.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Schools in the Washington area will have counselors and extra police patrols as students return to class following the school shooting in Connecticut.
On Sunday, Fairfax County Schools Superintendent Jack Dale said county police would increase patrols and visibility this week around all county schools. Dale says this is not a response to any threat. He says it's a police initiative to enhance safety and alleviate anxiety. Fairfax County is the largest school system in the Washington area with 181,000 students.
The District of Columbia and Loudoun County also are increasing patrols.
In Maryland, Montgomery County Public Schools plan to have counselors available to support the county's 149,000 students.
Prince George's County schools will hold a moment of silence at 10 a.m. Monday and will have increased security all week.

Conventional building construction and operation consumes large quantities of wood, water, metals, fossil fuels and other natural resources. Even though the majority of the materials used to build a home are put to good use, vast quantities of resources are wasted. In fact, building an average 2,000-sq. ft. house produces about 7,000 pounds of waste.
Much of this waste is avoidable. Careful management of the construction process makes a big difference. There are also many well-established homebuilding practices that help protect natural resources. For example, advanced framing techniques can substantially reduce lumber requirements without compromising structural integrity. Using engineered lumber and wood products certified by the Forest Stewardship Council can help protect old-growth forests.
There are many effective building strategies that conserve natural resources, as well as provide benefits such as cost savings. These include using durable products such as roofing materials with 40- or 50-year warranties, and specifying recycled-content products that divert waste from landfills. Recycled-content decking, reclaimed lumber and other products put waste to good use, while providing quality and durability that often exceed conventional materials. For example, decking materials made of recycled plastic mixed with wood waste fibers can last up to five times longer than wood decking, and never needs to be treated or painted.

For Petter Hegre, photography is about being personal.
WE LIVE in the age of the image and while nude and erotic photography is constantly changing as a means of expression, the process of finding girls with the emotional charisma, as well as the other more obvious attributes, is the motor that drives Hegre-Art.com.
Magda came to meet Petter Hegre after winning a beauty contest and they did two sessions, the first in the forest and the second in an abandoned factory, the contrast of all that dust and old steel against the tall, skinny child-like figure of Magda, naked in an unfamiliar landscape, the perfect metaphor of the changes that have taken place in eastern Europe during her lifetime.
Magda had been working in a sewing shop repairing clothes before winning the beauty contest in Warsaw and stripped her clothes off for the first time for the Hegre camera.
|Steff United States
Magnificent Magna So beautiful is Magda. I want to go to Poland!
|Arnie Sweden
A perfect body. Nice with the relatively hairy and natural style. It's a shame that she only took so few photo sessions.
|toelicker Germany
jesus christ.. where do you find these angels??? she is one the most stunning girls I ever saw!!!! Sa d that you did not continue to work with her.... she is a beauty!
|Pete United Kingdom
No comments I am amazed that Magda did not get one comment on any of her 3 sets which probably accounts for her short stay on this site, but think she has a great slender body and very pretty face. Big mistake, she was not shaved as most of the models are here. Shame, very attractive model
|Steff United States
Magda She is very beautiful. I don't care that she is not shaved. A little hair is fine with me.
|Kevin from Hertfordshire England United Kingdom
There are so many shaved models on this site (and in every magazine) I think it is nice to see a bush every now and then. Magda (just like Silvie) has a luxurious bush. I don't think it was the bush that caused her short stay on Petter.
|Doc United Kingdom
Magda So, you can do unshaved models?! See, not so hard, is it? Pet's comments from 2009 are sad in that she attracted few, if any comments, but along with Sylvie and Sian, and the Japanese girls, she represents visually sexually mature women worthy of art, and not raw nudity served up for the porno-crazed masses (who pay your wages, I know, don't bite the hand that feeds you!). Go on, dare to be different!
|Orlando Switzerland
Magda Magic Woman Seeing this movie leaves you longing for more of Magda. Magda is great. Magda is sensous. Magda is everything you ever dreamed of seeing in women. Her posture is very erect and straight. She makes you look twice and she is patient with your look.
|papafarang United States
A Could Have Been ... ... had the girl been more conscious of her posture. She had long, wonderful legs, and a striking long neck to match, yet her slouching throughout most of the clip kept distracting from her best features. She had an interesting girlish smile that we only got 3 seconds to enjoy. The glum 'attitude' look can work and almost worked here had it been broken up with more stunning studies of her legs and neck.
|Pete United Kingdom
Girlish Smile I agree with other reviews that Magda has a wonderful girlish smile which the video only captures in glimpses. She has a wonderful slim and sensual body which in the second part of the video, against the wall is shown off to perfection with some precise warm lighting. Magda does not seem comfortable in the factory setting, give her a more natural environment and I am sure we will see the absolute best of her. More please
|Guille Parrilla Puerto Rico
Natural Beauty For me Magda is the best example of natural beauty. Simple and Classic. I wish we can keep seeing her on a regular basis.
|al Switzerland
Stunning Natural Beauty Magda immediately attracted my full attention. She's the kind of woman I have always dreamed of. What an incredible, sensual body coupled with the most natural of posture. My congratulations to you for presenting her to us and PLEASE give us MUCH MORE of her.
|Sunning United States
Magda She is so natural, real breasts and butts. I fell in love with her the moment I saw her. Can we have more movies of her?
|ben United States
nice film
|Greg Blalock United States
Magda Please photogragh/film Ms. Magda many more times. One of the most beautiful and sexy ladies I have ever seen. She is quite outstanding. Please pass my comments on to her.
|Kevin from London United Kingdom
I am normally the one who rants about the models NOT being shaved. However, maybe because she is so hairy / not shaved and maybe (to use Petters terms) she 'has not put her ankles behind her ears' then I acually like this gallery. Thanks Petter
|KOMET United States
MAGDA from Poland Frankly, it is so REFRESHING to see a natural woman!!! Kudos to Magda. The unshaved look on a woman is sooo incredibly SEXY!!!
|Ted United States
Magda from Poland A real natural beauty. Can we see any more of her in the future? I like the natural unshaved look.
|Pete United Kingdom
Fantastic Film Magda has a body to rival Yanna yet she only had a brief appearance on your site. This is a fanastic fil and I am sure wiht more time we would have seen more of the gorgeous cheeky smile. Bush or no bush Magda is a very attractive lady, shame we did not get the chance to see more
|Steff United States
Magda She is an exquisite beauty throughout. Nice natural video.

This is one of the best Stratocasters I've ever experienced.
The guitar has an early 1960s feel. The glossy neck isn't too thick or too thin. The vintage style bridge intonates well; it also works well for palm muting.
After being strung with medium gauge strings(.11 - .49) this guitar sings through my Blues Junior III. The pickups are great. I will put them against boutique vintage-style Stratocaster pups.
I am a proponent of hard-tail Stratocasters. Not having a wang-bar reduces weight; it also improves sustain and tuning stability.
I would like to see Fender continue this model. I would also like to see more hard-tail Strats, like the Big Apple Stratocaster from the mid 1990s. Not everybody enjoys the vibrato arm.

This is the second "high-end" MIM Fender I own (the other being a Classic Player 50s Strat). I also own an American Standard Strat. I think this guitar is every bit as good as the others. I love the fat neck. The 9.5" radius and medium-jumbo frets make it very easy to play without fretting out. For whatever reason, the design of this guitar makes it feel like you are playing strings one gauge lower. I have 10's on mine but they feel like 9's.
Many people will be scared away by the hard-tail. But if, like me, you don't use the trem, this is so much better. The guitar stays in tune better. If you break a string, the tuning of the others won't go out of whack. And it actually reduces the weight. My Cray Strat is fairly light-weight (between 7 and 7.5 lbs).
The pickups sound great, especially the in-between settings. Lots of quack. I don't plan to ever change them. And this is coming from someone who almost always changes stock pickups.
Finally, the finish (Inca Silver) is absolutely beautiful. It has a bit of sparkle to it. Pictures really don't do it justice. And it looks great with the mint pickguard.
Overall, this is a really solid Strat. And I'm really just having a blast playing it.

While Manchester United's position at the top of the table will not change in March, the margin by which the Reds lead Manchester City could well be altered with three league matches apiece to be played by the title-race rivals.
Sir Alex Ferguson's men will go into the new month with a 12-point lead after City's 2-0 win over Chelsea on Sunday afternoon. Here we look at who the Reds and Blues will face during March - with a reminder of last season's corresponding results.
United v Norwich City – Saturday 2 March, 15:00 GMT
Pundits will expect the Reds to go 15 points clear again but while this fixture produced a straightforward home victory last term (2-0), the Canaries' shock 1-0 win when the sides last met at Carrow Road should ensure there's no complacency in Sir Alex's squad.
Aston Villa v Manchester City – Monday 4 March, 20:00 GMT
The United players will no doubt be glued to their hotel

This range of prints and posters captures a selection of the art to have emerged from the Islamic cultures of the Middle East and Arabia. Much of the collection comes from Christie's auction house and features some of the most incredible calligraphy and arabesque patterns to have emerged from the region. The absence of figurative art is a consistent feature of Islamic art which believes that depiction of the human form is idolatry and a sin. The figurative work that you'll find in our collection is therefore generally the work of travellers who sought to capture their experience of region.
Sign up for the Easyart newsletter to take advantage of this exclusive offer and receive updates on the latest artists and collections.
Gives the frame its character and provides the perfect setting for an artwork to be fully enjoyed.
Protects the artwork from dust and wilting so that it can be admired for many years.
Adds depth to an image and works with the moulding to enhance and protect the artwork.
Bonds to the artwork ensuring it is perfectly smooth and holds the whole frame together.
We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.
