This Application provides list of Ayurvedic Plants along with its details and image (picture) of each herb / herbal plant. Medicinal plants are plants which have a recognized medical use. They range from plants which are used in the production of mainstream pharmaceutical products to plants used in herbal medicine preparations. Ayurveda is used today as a generic term for traditional Indian medicine. By combining organoleptic (sense-based) empirical medicine with religious ritual perspectives, Ayurveda is a complete medical system. It deals with health in all its aspects; physical health, mental balance, spiritual well-being, social welfare, environmental considerations, dietary and lifestyle habits, daily living trends, and seasonal variations in lifestyle, as well as treating and managing specific diseases. Ayurveda teaches respect for nature, appreciation of life and the means to empower the individual. It is holistic medicine at its best. Ayurvedic herbal is an overview of the wonders of ayurvedic pharmacology: how Ayurveda understands plants, how it prepares them and how these preparations are used. Ayurveda is literally translated as science of life but it can also be described as the way of living with awareness and promoting longevity. Ayurveda tells us which substances, qualities and actions are life enhancing, and which are not.
- No Internet connectivity required.
- Medicinal use for each medicinal plant. - Free to use application.
- Application will be updated if internet connection is there (Optional).

Three French children today died after their throats were slit at their home near Paris, police said, adding that their mother was later arrested in the capital.
The doctor father of the children aged nine, 11 and 17 raised the alarm after returning home in the morning from work, police and judicial sources said. "The children had their throats slit but we are still awaiting forensic reports," a judicial source said. The bodies of the nine-year-old girl and her 11-year-old brother showed multiple stab injuries.
The elder brother was found alive but later died of his injuries. The killings took place in the suburban town of Dampmart, 30km east of Paris. The father was found in a state of shock and neighbours said he rushed out of his home screaming when he discovered the bodies.
A neighbour expressed shock saying the family did not appear dysfunctional.
"Everyone knew them here. It's unbelievable," said one, adding that the family was "discreet" and "had no problems". However, investigators said the couple were experiencing marital problems.

Micro-business funding gets scarcer

Funding for the smallest of businesses is harder to get.

Nena Rawdah calls it "the first smack" — that moment this last December when she saw the economy was slowing and that it was going to hurt. It was the holidays and the streets of Portland's St. Johns neighborhood where Rawdah's bookstore sits were empty. The expected 20% jump in sales from last year wasn't going to happen and the owners were going to have to make some hard decisions.

High school basketball: Bingham wakes up in the second half to get past West
SALT LAKE CITY — The arena was empty and the morning was awakening as Bingham took the floor at the Huntsman Center on Tuesday, and like a youngster before milk and cartoons, the Miners were zonked.
"We've never played that early before. We woke up the same time we do for school, but we've never played that early," explained Bingham guard Kyle Gearig.
Before the Miners had an opportunity to rub their eyes open, they were clinging to a one-point lead at halftime against West in the 5A basketball tournament. The slow start provided the wake-up call they needed, and in the second half Bingham sleepwalked to a 73-42 win.
"I don't know if we did anything differently other than our approach was a lot better," Bingham first-year coach Jake Schroeder said. "We came out with a little more energy and a little more effort on the defensive end."
Bingham outscored the Panthers 45-17 in the second half with the majority of the damage inflicted at the free-throw line (22-of-28). The Miners increased their efficiency from the floor from 30 percent to 59 in the second half while outrebounding West 21-12.
"We knew that we could come back and not let them keep that up in the second half," said Bingham sophomore Yoeli Childs, who provided a 10-point spark in the final two quarters after missing his first four attempts.
"We always try to go through him whether it's for him to score or kick out. Our offense runs through him, and there's pressure on him being a sophomore," Schroeder said. "The part I was frustrated with in the first half is West did a good job of getting him off the block. We made a big effort to get the ball inside in the key, and when he gets the ball down there, he's pretty good."
Each time Bingham appeared to gain separation in the first half, West answered with a 3-point play — one by Riley Kenner and the other by Dallyn Kenner. Eventually Kiley Kenner connected on wing with four seconds remaining in the half to pull his team within one, 27-26.
"(Riley Kenner) had 13 points in the second quarter," Gearig said. "So that was our main focus, shutting him down. I think we did that really well."
Schroeder added, "In the first half we kind of sagged off and let him do whatever he wanted, so we said, 'We'll take something away, and if he beats us he beats us.' It worked out for us."
The defensive adjustment left West searching for points while Bingham utilized Jordan Evans, who has experienced roller-coaster stretches after fracturing his hand earlier this season. He finished with 13 points, including a five-point burst with 30 seconds in the third to give Bingham a 49-33 advantage.
"He can score in a variety of ways," Schroeder said of Evans. "When we can get out and get him the ball in the open area, he does a good job of getting to the hole. He did a good job of hitting the open shots."
The Miners will now face three-time defending champion Lone Peak on Thursday at 7:30 p.m. at the Huntsman Center.
"We know that we're going in as the underdog," Schroeder said. "To win three in a row like they have — they're obviously the team to beat. We're going to try and get a game plan together, and I think if we defend and play how we play — you never know. All we want is a shot."

Toyota bailing on California [VIDEO]
California policies have been chasing business away from the state for years so although it shocked some people in local government that Toyota was enticed away by Texas, most thinking citizens of California are not surprised.
The world's leading automotive maker will follow the lead of its competitors and other large businesses, and leave California for better business climates elsewhere. Toyota had its US headquarters in Torrance for more than three decades, but now nearly 5,000 jobs will shift to Texas:
Toyota Motor Corp. plans to move large numbers of jobs from its sales and marketing headquarters in Torrance to suburban Dallas, according to a person familiar with the automaker's plans. …
The automaker won't be the first big company Texas has poached from California.
Occidental Petroleum Corp. said in February that it was relocating from Los Angeles to Houston, making it one of around 60 companies that have moved to Texas since July 2012, according to Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
Perry last month visited the California to recruit companies. The group Americans for Economic Freedom also recently launched a $300,000 advertising campaign in which Perry contends 50 California companies have plans to expand or relocate in Texas because it offers a better business climate.
Like these other companies, Toyota could also save money in an environment of lower business taxes, real estate prices and cost of living.
Torrance mayor Frank Scotto said he was blindsided by the decision, although he knew Toyota planned a major announcement for today. KCAL-9 reported on the move last night:
California will change their policies and friendliness toward business after the businesses have left. Even New York is getting in the mix and has been wooing the gem of California, Silicon Valley corps like Facebook who employs over 300 people in New York, 100 of whom are engineers and Google who employs 3,600 people in the city, more than half of whom are engineers.Other Bay Area heavyweights who have set up shop are Twitter, Pinterest, Dropbox, eBay and Yelp have also opened offices in New York. It Appears that California is too involved in growing their greatest commerce to pay attention, big Government.

Sen. Marco Rubio is pushing to make what he calls "decisive" diplomacy and foreign aid the backbone of American foreign policy, separating himself from a growing isolationist wing of the Republican Party.
The Florida senator and potential Republican presidential hopeful will argue in remarks Wednesday at the conservative American Enterprise Institute in Washington that diplomacy and foreign aid should "vastly outnumber" the country's uses of military force, according to excerpts provided to The Associated Press.
"While military might may be our most eye-catching method of involvement abroad, it is far from being our most often utilized," Rubio says. "In most cases, the decisive use of diplomacy, foreign assistance and economic power are the most effective ways to achieve our interests and stop problems before they spiral into crises."
Rubio's speech comes amid a debate in the Republican Party over the role of U.S. foreign policy and military involvement after more than a decade of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Traditional hawks, such as Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., have long favored military intervention in foreign conflicts, including the civil war in Syria. But a growing bloc of noninterventionists, led by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., is pursuing a more dovish course, animated by libertarian beliefs.
Paul, another possible GOP presidential contender, has gone so far as to suggest cutting foreign aid in half and completely excluding countries, primarily in the Muslim world, that don't share American values.
Rubio, who sits on the Senate's Foreign Relations and Intelligence committees, argues for a middle ground between the hawks and doves.
"These labels are obsolete. They come from the world of the past," he says. "The time has now come for a new vision for America's role abroad — one that reflects the reality of the world we live in today."
Rubio has used his perch on the Foreign Relations Committee to call for stiffer sanctions for Iran as Western powers and Tehran seek to resolve a decade-long standoff over the country's nuclear program. The senator, who has criticized an international proposal to ease the economic sanctions, is expected to address the issue Wednesday as those negotiations resume and offer policy prescriptions that touch all corners of the globe.
"As instability spreads and tyrants flourish, our allies want to know whether America can still be counted on to confront these common challenges," he says.
On Tuesday, Rubio offered a defense of robust foreign aid at a Foreign Relations Committee meeting on the humanitarian effort for the millions of victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. He criticized China for its modest aid, saying the country's politics influenced its response.
"Compare that to the United States, which consistently has been willing to put aside whatever political differences we may have when a humanitarian crisis strikes," he said, citing disasters in recent years in Pakistan and Haiti.
Rubio will continue his foreign policy tour with a speech in December at London's Chatham House, an international affairs think tank.

GRAFTON businessman Bob Tomlinson joins a select band of people - those who have had a win over bureaucracy.
Mr Tomlinson has been concerned there was inadequate signage on the pedestrian crossing signs in the block between Fitzroy and Pound Sts since they were installed.
"I was always worried there were not signs on both sides of the crossings," he said.
"It's one of the busiest areas of the main street and with the trees in the median strip it's easy for drivers to not notice a pedestrian.
"The crossing at Bacon St had four pedestrian signs, two in each direction, one on each side near footpaths and one on each side of the median strip."
Mr Tomlinson said it was only a matter of time before someone was seriously injured or worse.
"I have had several near misses there and many of my friends have also commented on the problem with these crossings," he said.
Mr Tomlinson contacted Clarence Valley Council, which told him the RMS had control of those decisions.
Mr Tomlinson fired off a letter to the RMS in September, without expecting too much.
But earlier this month there was a surprise for him in his mailbox.
"The RMS agreed with me," he said.
"The letter said my request fitted in with their rules and they would advise the council to install pedes- trian leg symbol signs as soon as they could.
"It's a good feeling, having the bureaucrats agree with you."
Council deputy general manager Rob Donges said the signs would be installed soon.
"We're happy to do it. There's nothing more important than making sure pedestrians are safe," he said.

Outrage in Pakistan as police slow to arrest murder suspects from elite class
Shahzeb Khan, a 20-year-old university student, has become a national symbol since he was murdered in a suspected revenge attack on Christmas Day.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Shahzeb Khan was cruising through the streets of Karachi, Pakistan, in the early hours of Christmas morning in a blue Suzuki Swift, an early birthday present from his parents.
The 20-year-old university student was on his way home after hours spent celebrating his older sister's wedding. At about 2:45 a.m., a car pulled alongside him and unleashed a hail of bullets, police say. Doctors said Khan, the son of a local police officer, died almost instantly.
His murder, police say, was an act of revenge.
Khan had argued earlier with a neighbour named Nawab Siraj Talpur after Talpur's servant made an inappropriate remark about Khan's sister and Khan slapped him. Khan's father intervened and the argument seemed to be settled. But it wasn't long before Talpur and his friend Shahrukh Jatoi, both from families that enjoy positions of privilege, allegedly had their revenge.
Two weeks after Khan's murder, one of the two main suspects has been captured, the other has reportedly fled the country with the help of police insiders, and Khan, a good-looking man with spiked hair and a well-groomed beard, has become a national symbol.
In the same way that a young woman's rape and murder in India has helped stoke public anger over violence against women, outrage over Khan's murder continues to build throughout neighbouring Pakistan, shining an unwanted light on the country's aristocratic feudal class, infamous for using influence-peddling to sidestep the law.
"There were murders before Shahzeb and after him, but what sets this apart is the fact the youth of Pakistan has really risen up and said 'no more,' " said Anum Brohi of Mississauga, Khan's 23-year-old cousin. "It has also really shown the power of social media. There were no reports about this at all for days after his murder.
"I remember my mother saying the people who did this are untouchable. But the reaction since then has really given us faith for the first time in Pakistan's justice system."
For decades after Pakistan was carved out of former British India, feudal lords and landowners served as police, judges and political leaders, cementing their political power by coercing itinerant labourers to vote as they saw fit.
Khan's murder has become a daily story in the country's English-language newspapers. A Facebook page dedicated to his memory had more than 113,000 likes on Monday. And his case has reportedly attracted the attention of numerous human rights activists and prominent Pakistanis — and Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, the chief justice of the country's supreme court.
Two days after Khan's murder, Sindh police made two arrests, taking a pair of guards into custody. They also appointed a three-member team to oversee the investigation.
The Express Tribune, a Pakistani newspaper, reported Jan. 1 that Talpur and Jatoi had repeatedly escaped capture with the help of police informants.
Shahzeb's father, Aurangzeb Khan, said police initially refused to register a complaint following the murder. "When my son was brought to the hospital, the police wouldn't even come to the hospital for an inquiry," said the victim's father, a deputy police superintendent with 32 years on the force.
He told the Express Tribune that the Jatoi family was using its money and influence to impede the investigation. "The police only conducted raids at the suspects' houses when they had escaped," he said. "They should have picked up their relatives and other family members (and made inquiries). But this is not happening."
Police began to take the case seriously after the involvement of Nabil Gabol, a senior official with the ruling Pakistan People's Party who is a relative of Khan.
By Friday, with public interest in the case surging, Chaudhry summoned police officials to a hearing and scolded them. He gave police 24 hours to make an arrest, or risk losing their jobs.
The following day, Talpur was arrested. On Monday, he appeared in court.
"Used to sitting on comfortable sofas all his life, the son of a feudal elite was seated on a hard wooden bench outside the courtroom, waiting for his turn," the Express Tribune reported. "The band of gun-toting guards that used to accompany him around the city was replaced with over two dozen policemen."
At the same hearing during which the 22-year-old Talpur was remanded, Chaudhry gave police another deadline. Even as Karachi police revealed that they had reached out to Interpol after reports that Jatoi may have fled to Dubai, Chaudhry ordered police to bring him to court by Thursday.

Burger to Build 60-ft Research Vessel
Burger Boat Company and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources signed a contract for the construction of a 60-ft research vessel to support expanded study and survey work of the Lake Michigan fisheries. Named after the fish genus that includes: Lake Whitefish and Lake Herring, the new RV Coregonus will be capable of gill netting and allowing fisheries staff to continue the work done on the previous research ship—the RV Barney Devine. The RV Coregonus will also have expanded features including onboard laboratory equipment, water tight compartments and a semi-planning hull along with capabilities for scuba operations. RV Coregonus was designed by SeaCraft Design in Sturgeon Bay and will be built by Burger Boat Company. "Although the RV Barney Devine was well-maintained, it is now nearly 75 years old and has become technologically obsolete with an increasing maintenance expense," WDNR Secretary Matt Frank said of the previous research vessel also built by Burger. DNR fisheries staff worked closely with SeaCraft to develop the design that would maintain the ability to use gill nets during all seasons but in the most extreme sea conditions, while expanding its capabilities for research. Its capabilities include trawling and deploying hydroacoustic equipment. RV Coregonus is expected to be ready for use in 2011.

Costume the girls are wearing to the fall festival...yes they're wearing the same thing! My oldest saw the outfit I made for the youngest and wanted one too!
candy corn banner :: i sincerely dislike the taste of candy corn, but i adore its festive visage! :D

Candy corn cupcakes Don't like icing? Get Angel food cake mix, separate into two bowls. Make one orange and the other yellow with food coloring. Layer, bake and add just a little white icing!

Eskayel New Pillow Collection
Seeing Stars: A Pillow Line With a Cosmic Connection
This Fall, wishing on a star is going to get a lot easier. Brooklyn-based design firm Eskayel has launched a collection of pillows inspired by the galaxies and stars. "We are always referring to the universe in terms of spirituality, and these patterns reflect the actual 'universe' and what is out there, up there in the sky," says Eskayel founder and creative director Shanan Campanaro. "The collection was a way to think of the earth as something greater and more amazing that should be protected and respected."
Each $150 pillow is named for a type of star or galaxy and will be available exclusively through ABC Carpet & Home starting in September. While that might seem like a lot for a pillow, it's a small price to pay for your own piece of the galaxy.
