Why I want to grow old together
When I was young and imagined growing old, I always imagined I would have someone else growing old with me. -Will you still love me when I'm old? -I will still love you when you're old. -Will you still love me when I turn gray? -I will still love you when you turn gray. -What if I get fat? [longer pause] -I will still love you if you get fat. I imagined teasing, gifting nosehair trimmers at Christmas and laughing about it, holding hands on front porches in rocking chairs, side-by-side bathtubs on the goddamn beach. When you are in your twenties and getting old is pretty much the worst thing you can think of, growing old together is your life preserver. Getting old sucks, but growing old together is the stuff marriage proposals and pharmaceutical commercials are made of. In my twenties, this is the future I imagined. In my moments of doubt I would allow myself to wonder, What if he doesn't love me when I get old? What if he trades me in for a younger model? But never, not even in my wildest what-if scenarios, did I imagine that there wouldn't be a he at all. (Enough with the footprints, oh Lord, but can you please explain why there's only one bathtub on the goddamn beach?)
And perhaps that is what I am seeing reflected in those old pictures that look like me but also not like me. A quiet confidence, a belief that my life was on an ever-increasing upward trajectory, that things can only get better from here. The unknown was exciting. [A brief aside to tell you that I am trying really hard not to punctuate every line with a lyric from Les Mis right now. Then I was young and unafraaaaiiiiid... Yeah. I dreamed a dream.]
But I am fine. Everything is fine. How are you? Are you fine or not fine, or good or maybe great? I miss blogging but I feel like I have nothing to say, and when I do try to write something it comes out like this, and quiet desperation is not exactly the "brand" I wish to convey. If I had something funny or fun or exciting to tell you I would, believe me. But don't give up on me yet, ok?

You know what? I think everyone worries about having to grow old without someone. Even those who are married. We never know what the future holds, and that person with whom you thought you'd spend the rest of your life could disappear out of your life before that happens, for many different reasons.ReplyDelete
Things can and will get better.
And no one is giving up on you. You are too awesome for that :)

I'm with you. I don't think it's a "quiet desperation" that comes across anymore when I communicate. It's loud and off putting. I spend most of my energy trying to temper it when I'm around people. Not a great way to make friends or the other thing.ReplyDelete

I think whatever you write is always amazing :)ReplyDelete
Not to be a downer, but even if you find someone, there are no guarantees in life. And aren't you like 32 or something? Trust me: Take pleasure in how you look now, because in ten years you are going to look back at your pictures now and wonder why you didn't realize how amazing you looked. And so you will ten years after that looking at yourself at 42, and so on . . .ReplyDelete
I feel the same lately, especially about blogging. I'm choosing to blame it on the winter here in DC. When spring finally comes out for real, surely we'll feel a little more inspired to write ... happy ... things?ReplyDelete
Hang in there.
I agree with Miss Sassy Marmalade - winter is an evil force with such things. Once Spring truly arrives and then Summer perhaps things will look more positive. In the meantime, travel as much as possible, drink a lot of booze, and enjoy watching all the stupid TV you want without someone else in the room groaning about it. ;)ReplyDelete

I second fashion survivor on all points. And you're still an interesting relevant writer whom I enjoy reading.ReplyDelete
Growing old with someone is way over-rated... things begin to sag, teeth fall out, hair falls out, they snore louder, the list goes on and on, if it wasn't for the boyos i'd be living alone and enjoying the solitude, maybe i'm just getting old and cranky (crankier)... and you know the silly little phrase that love comes when you least expect it, i'd stop looking, it will take a concerted effort but i'm a firm believer that if you want something to much it never happens, once again you gots to just be...ReplyDelete

My grandmother's cast-iron skillet (pictured) could be called a "fait-tout," or does-everything, pan. She mostly fried chicken in it but also used it for baking cornbread; braising vegetables with water, butter, and sugar; searing pot roast; and crushing nuts! It's mine now; it was handed down like a family treasure, and I treat it like one.
Seasoning is easy, and essential, even if you buy a pre-seasoned pan. The iron forms a natural patina over time, and it becomes non-stick without toxic teflon. But you must re-season it occasionally to maintain the coating. Rub a cooking oil that has a high smoking point, such as peanut or canola, all over the skillet; wipe excess off with a towel; and place in a 350-degree oven for an hour. To preserve the surface, do not use detergents or harsh scrubbers to wash it–and never ever soak it or put it in a dishwasher. If the seasoning is well and consistently done, you should be able to rinse with a soft cloth to clean. Dry immediately with a towel to prevent any rusting.
If you don't have a relic like mine, I highly recommend a new one:

MakeMyTrip (India) Pvt. Ltd spends around Rs10 crore a year on print and television advertising. The travel firm has to necessarily be in the public eye in a country where the travel and hospitality businesses are booming.
According to the Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation, the number of domestic air passengers in India grew from 26.5 million in 2005-06 to 33 million in 2006-07. And 4.2 million foreign tourists visited India in 2006, up from 3.5 millionin 2005.
But MakeMyTrip is an online travel company. "We have already established ourselves on the Internet; now, we need to expand our presence in the real world," said Sachin Bhatia, co-founder and chief marketing officer, MakeMytrip.
The travel firm isn't the only company with an online business model to discover the advantages of advertising in mainstream media such as print and television. Monster, Naukri, Cleartrip, Yatra, and Rediff, all companies with the .com suffix have. As have the online media programmes created by companies such as Hindustan Lever Ltd (SunsilkGangofGirls.com) and Cadbury India Ltd (Meethamoment.com).
Ironically, it is the Internet's limited reach in India that is pushing these companies to advertise in mainstream media. According to the Internet and Mobile Association of India, an industry body, India has around 38.2 million Internet users, less than 4% of the country's total population. Other estimates exist, with the most optimistic one putting the number of Internet users in the country at 55 million, or 5.5% of the population, but even that number pales in comparison to the 60% of the country's population that television reaches.
"TV and print are almost omnipresent media and online companies cannot ignore their ability to reach out to a larger population," said Sidharth Rao, CEO and co-founder, Webchutney Pvt. Ltd, a consulting firm that advises firms on new-media strategies.
Rao said despite the web's cost-effectiveness, the medium does not reach out to as many consumers as television and print do.
According to TAM Media Research, a Mumbai-based television audience measurement firm, advertising spends of Internet firms on television grew 205% in 2006, to around Rs79 crore. Their advertising spend in print grew 87.5% to Rs41 crore the same year. On an average, said N. Bhaskara Rao, chairman, Centre for Media Studies, "The advertising budgets of online firms are growing 35-40% year-on-year." The firms, he added, were feeling the need to spread their advertising across more media, and spend more on each, because "placing one's bets on just one medium is (no longer) enough." And so, even as traditional media firms fret about the Internet's growing impact on their business, they are becoming the preferred advertising media for Internet companies. The Rs10 crore MakeMyTrip spends on TV and print advertising is around half its advertising budget. A large part of the remainder goes, not to the Internet, but to outdoor media and radio.
Growing competition is one reason for the rapid growth in ad spends of Internet firms. At the end of 2005, India had two online travel firms. Today, it has six. There are many new entrants in the market," said Sanchayeeta Bhattacharya, national director, Mindshare Insights, the research division of Mindshare, a mediabuying agency.
"That is the reason why online companies are getting competitive and investing in media that will help build their brand identity among a larger audience base," she added. Yatra and Cleartrip, both online travel firms, said more than 60% of their advertising budget is devoted to mainstream media. Yatra, which claims that it sells more than 3,500 tickets a day, said only 30% of its marketing budget is targeted at the Internet, with the rest going to print and television.
"A 360-degree approach to advertising is the only way to keep up with the competition," said Noel Swain, vice-president, marketing, Cleartrip.
Meanwhile, television and print firms are not complaining.
"Online companies are one of the leading advertisers across our platforms. They, in fact, account for more than 1% of our total ad revenues," said Joy Chakraborthy, executive vice-president and head, network sales, Zee Network Ltd. This set of advertisers was almost non-existent some two years ago (barring some exceptions of portals like Naukri.com), he added.
Naukri.com, a jobs portal, in fact, credits its television campaign for its growth over the past few years.
"Today, we have more than nine million registered users and that's mainly thanks to our aggressive advertising and marketing drive," said Sumeet Singh, national head, marketing, Infoedge India Ltd, the company that runs the portal. "Today, we advertise on about 100 radio channels and more than 200 TV channels,"he added.

Psalm 43
Day 22
Got up medium. Dressed. Ate breakfast. Read "The Red Pony". Then all four of us went to an Italian fruit stand, and the Key. Came back. Pops went out. He came back about 6:00. Ate dinner. Put on pj's, got in bag. Thank you, Mr. O.
We ate:
- Breakfast: 1 bowl oatmeal+honey
- Lunch: 1 1/2 dates, 1 fig, p.nuts, soy nuts, honey+pnuts
- Dinner--didn't write it.

Day 23
Psalm 44
Got up late. Dressed. Looked at pictures of JA, the T.S.U.*, Greta, and the puppies. Also saw dear Speedy. Then read, had Sabbath School. We read Genesis 10, Deut. 5, psalms 62, 44 and 117. then pops cooked. Ate Then Pops +T went downstairs to get a snack. They came back. Played scrabble and ate.
I didn't write the food.
(Added 1/29/09 -- I was so tired posting this the other night that I neglected to put in an explanation... something I've been meaning to do but it had never come up.
When we read psalms during the Sabbath Service, whatever the "Psalm of the Day" was would be reduced to it's basic number... in this case 4+4 equals 8. So whatever other psalms equaled 8, we'd read. Again,in this case, 62. It was a way of picking another psalm to read. Also, the first chapter we'd read would be wherever we were in the reading of the entire Bible. We were in Genesis, so we must have started again, having read the Bible in it's entirety, a feat that took a few years seeing as how we read a chapter or two a week. And we always read The Ten Commandments, which are first listed in Exodus 20, but are repeated in Deuteronomy. We'd read the second version for variety.)
And I also didn't write anything on December 11, other than "Got up medium. Dressed. Ate snack."

Celebrating amazing mums this Mother's Day
Let's celebrate our mums on Mother's day and be inspired by mothers across the world.
Mothers can be the driving force of every family. The organiser, the chef, the friend, the motivational speaker, the breadwinner, the shoulder to cry on. This year for Mother's Day we are celebrating women who have embraced motherhood and made a difference.
Here are five mothers, from famous actresses to local women, who have inspired many and helped to change the world.
Selena lives in Malawi with her seven children. Selena's crops have been destroyed with severe rain, causing the land to flood. During the rainy season, Selena's house collapsed while her children were inside; luckily they all managed to escape. Selena moved her family to a nearby hut where her children sleep inside but Selena sleeps outside. Now Selena is having to deal with the dry season which means that once again her crops are destroyed.
Selena struggles to provide food for her family so she goes to the mill and ask for husks of maize, saying that it is for her animals but in reality she is getting them to feed her family. With the husks, some water and powdered orange juice, Selena prepares her and her family's only meal of the day.
Only by Selena's ingenuity and resilience has she been able to provide for her family. She has inspired so many by always putting her family's needs before her own. A mother like Selena does all she can for her family.
Jessica Alba
Jessica Alba, a Golden Globe-nominated actress, is a mum of two which she describes as being 'the most profound experience I've ever had'.
When she started to prepare for her baby, Jessica struggled to find safe, eco-friendly, effective and affordable baby items. So Jessica and her husband started a new business, The Honest Company. The Honest Company guarantees quality, eco-friendly products for the home and family that are non-toxic and healthy for the baby. Along with their love of gorgeous designs, durable quality and care for the planet, being a transparent, trustworthy company is at the core of their business.
Jessica Alba has opened the eyes of so many when it comes down to baby items. Jessica took her own experience of being a mother and turned it into a solution to a commonly-faced problem.
Farida*, from Egypt, was married into a wealthy family but sadly her husband died of cancer six months later. Farida was pregnant at the time. After her husband's death, his family mistreated her and took everything from her. She was cast out of the family. They took her baby and didn't let Farida see her for a long time. Her only option was to go back to her family who were already living in poverty.
Through her local church, Farida got to know about Tearfund's partner Think and Do and its Widows' Ministry group. Desperate to rebuild her life and get her baby back, Farida trained in hairdressing and was given some equipment in order to start a small enterprise.
One year later, Farida is back with her baby and now, after three years, is generating a very good income for her family. She also has additional projects such as renting out wedding dresses and running a literacy class in her local church, teaching and helping other women in her community.
Farida is a mother who rebuilt a life with her child, earning enough money to support her family despite the circumstances she found herself in.
Victoria Beckham
This spice girl may be posh but she is also generous. Working with Mothers2Mothers, an organisation to prevent AIDS and HIV being passed from mother to baby, Victoria donated 600 items from her personal closet for auction. She says, "As a woman we have a responsibility to help other women."
UNAIDS also appointed Victoria as their International Goodwill Ambassador, where she worked to raise resources and awareness.
Victoria's passion for this grew from hearing the stories of women who are at risk of passing on HIV or AIDS to their babies. Being a mother herself, she wants to do everything she can to help these women. Victoria is dedicated to her family and with her help she has enabled hundreds of families to be less at risk of HIV and AIDS.
Gran on a wire
It was coming up to Norma's 80th birthday and her grandchildren kept telling her that she was getting old, so she thought she would show them what she can do and prove them wrong. Sponsored by friends and family, Norma, as part of her 80th birthday celebrations strapped herself into a harness and rode the world's fastest zip wire ride in North Wales raising money for Tearfund and another charity.
"I just wanted to help some children who were in difficulty. And Tearfund, they're looking after small children."
Norma, a grandmother, is raising money for children around the world who are struggling to survive every day. Grandmothers can also be so inspiring and she sure did prove to her grandchildren that she is not getting too old!
All these women are mothers who have helped changed the world in their own way, with their own strength and perseverance.

Nuclear authority chief raps Tepco's attitude toward Fukushima
(Mainichi Japan)
TOKYO (Kyodo) -- The head of Japan's nuclear safety watchdog on Monday criticized the attitude of Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. toward decommissioning of the crisis-hit Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant and questioned the company's ability to resume operation of other reactors.
"I feel a sense of danger," Nuclear Regulation Authority Chairman Shunichi Tanaka said during a special meeting with the company's top management, adding that Tokyo Electric does "not seem to have a will to take initiative" toward decommissioning of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi plant.
Takashi Kawamura, the chairman of the power company known as Tepco, and its president, Tomoaki Kobayakawa, attended the meeting. The authority felt it is necessary to hear from the top executives before it could make a decision on whether to approve Tepco's plan to resume operation of the Nos. 6 and 7 reactors at its Kashiwazaki-Kariwa plant in Niigata Prefecture.
Tepco filed for state safety assessment of the two reactors in September 2013 to reactivate them, hoping to restore its financial condition as it needed massive funds to pay compensation related to the Fukushima Daiichi disaster, triggered by a huge earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011, and to scrap the plant that suffered meltdowns.
The watchdog's safety screening has found Tepco's failure to report insufficient earthquake resistance of a facility built to serve as the base to deal with a possible nuclear accident at the Niigata complex although it had acknowledged the insufficiency for three years.
In June, Tepco submitted to the watchdog its revised safety measures for the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa complex.
"An operator lacking will to take initiative does not have the right to resume operation of nuclear reactors," Tanaka said.
Tepco's chairman responded by saying, "There are citizens who believe nuclear power is necessary. Operating reactors is our responsibility."
But he also admitted there is room for only two more years' worth of space in the tanks to accommodate contaminated water stemming from the Fukushima complex.
At Monday's meeting, the watchdog asked Tepco's top management about the company's safety measures for the Niigata complex on the Sea of Japan coast as well as its safety awareness.
Tanaka said the authority does not view that it received sufficient responses from Tepco at the meeting and requested that the company submit more explanation on its plan to decommission the Fukushima complex and resume operation of the two reactors at the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa plant.
Tanaka plans to conduct on-site checkups at the two reactors of the plant in Niigata, saying, "Tepco, which caused the (Fukushima) accident, is not an ordinary operator."
The two boiling water reactors at the Niigata plant are the same type as those that suffered core meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi complex, and no such reactors have cleared the authority's safety screening since the Fukushima disaster.

There's a shift in my consciousness that's happening, and I think the best thing for me to do is write about it (and enjoy it, of course). I've been getting glimpses of clear air, which serves to contrast with the fog I'd been used to; the fog of what-is. I've had to find my central, feeling place, otherwise I wasn't going to make it through.
One way of describing it is that I had various sub-personalities which were in a "warring states" kind of situation. My ego was the steward of these fractious sup-personalities, but found the job tough going for a while. Now I'm experiencing a "return of the king" moment, and there's peace throughout the land aka my psyche.
There's work to be done, but there's no longer a civil war within myself. There are still voices of dissension, and long held beliefs, but ultimately all of the inner states believe in aligning with my True Self. I suppose you could say that I'm establishing a personal constitution.

After World War II Albania became a Stalinist state under Enver Hoxha and remained staunchly isolationist until its transition to democracy after 1990.
The 1992 elections ended 47 years of communist rule but the latter half of the decade saw a quick turnover of presidents and prime ministers.
Main mosque in the capital Tirana
Many Albanians left the country in search of work; the money they send home remains an important source of revenue.
During the Nato bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999 nearly 500000 ethnic Albanian refugees from Kosovo spilled over the border imposing a huge burden on Albania's already fragile economy.
While there have been signs of economic progress with inflation under tighter control and some growth the country remains one of the poorest in Europe outside the former Soviet Union.
Unemployment remains stubbornly high and the infrastructure and corruption continue to deter much foreign investment. Agriculture an important sector still suffers from underfunding.
Albania made a formal application for membership of the European Union in 2009 on the basis of a 2006 Stabilisation and Association agreement. The EU is keen to encourage further reform particularly as regards stamping out organised crime and corruption and developing media freedom and property and minority rights.

President: Bamir Topi
Bamir Topi was elected president in 2007
A research scientist and senior member of Prime Minister Berisha's Democratic Party Mr Topi was elected president for a five-year term by parliament in July 2007. Albanian is a parliamentary republic and executive power resides with the cabinet of ministers.
Prime minister: Sali Berisha
The centre-right Democratic Party led by the former president Sali Berisha was re-elected by a narrow margin in parliamentary elections in July 2009 defeating the main opposition socialists.
The election count which produced the closest result since Albania toppled communism in 1990 was accompanied by disputes over procedure and claims of intimidation.
Sali Berisha was re-elected in July 2009
Mr Berisha first became prime minister following victory in general elections in July 2005.
That vote was also followed by wrangling over the count with re-runs demanded in a number of constituencies. It was nearly two months before the result was finally declared.
An erstwhile communist Mr Berisha formed the Democratic Party in the early 1990s and in 1992 became Albania's first non-communist president since the Second World War.
His bid to liberalise the economy fast increased hardship for the majority. His presidency came to an end in 1997 when the collapse of fraudulent pyramid investment schemes led to violent unrest.
As prime minister Mr Berisha promised to stamp out corruption reduce taxation attract greater foreign investment and develop the infrastructure.
He succeeded in gaining Albania Nato membership in April 2009 and the country formally applied for European Union membership the same month after a June 2006 Stabilisation and Association agreement.
Born in 1944 and a former heart specialist Mr Berisha is known as an orator and has faced accusations of authoritarianism in the past.
Public broadcaster Albanian Radio and TV (RTSh) operates national radio and TV networks. It faces competition from private stations which have mushroomed since the late 1990s.
The sector is in a "state of anarchy" the Open Society Institute said in October 2008 citing the sheer number of channels a lack of ownership transparency and a weak broadcasting regulator. However recent legislation had put the country's media better in line with world standards OSI said.
Some Albanian newspapers are prone to sensationalism
Many viewers watch Italian and Greek TV via terrestrial reception. Radio services in Albanian from the BBC (103.9 MHz in Tirana) Deutsche Welle Radio France Internationale and the Voice of America are carried on FM.
Sensationalism is often the norm in the print media. Political parties trade unions and various societies publish their own newspapers; dependence on outside revenue tends to limit their objectivity.
Some 580000 Albanians were online by the end of 2008 - around 16% of the population (Internetworldstats).

Holy f*cking shit. What a fantastic episode, "House of Cards" is back and with it's best episode yet. "Chapter Fourteen" is a superb hour of television, and possibly one of the best I've ever seen. "House of Cards" has had it's problems, the middle part of Season One in particular, but it ended so great I was incredibly excited for it's return. It didn't disappoint, instead it delivered one of it's best episodes.
"Chapter Fourteen" delivers various shocks and twist in an organic and exciting way. To start let's address the elephant in the room, the sudden and shocking death of Zoe Barnes(played by Kate Mara). I can't say I didn't expect Zoe to bite the bullet this season, but this soon in the season premiere of all episodes. I love Kate Mara, and Zoe's character was excellent, but her death has to go down as one of the most surprising and exhilarating moments in all of television. Knowing now how the scene ends now, makes the scene all the more brilliant. Frank asking her to delete the messages and contact information is given more meaning. Zoe may not have been perfect, but in the world of D.C. she was practically a damn saint, and Francis killing her solidifies his place as a monster.
The scenes with Claire are always fantastic, but Robin Wright's performance in this episode is absolutely superb. It's all of the subtleties in Wright's performance that makes her shine, the scene where she see's the news report reporting Zoe's death in particular was a standout scene. There's always been this whole debate I've had with myself as to whether or not Claire knows about the full extent of Francis's actions(murdering Peter Russo for example), and this scene doesn't so much confirm it but her behavior regarding the news definitely seems to suggest it. Also her scenes with Gillian were also amazing.
This season seems to be going down a route similar to the second seasons of "Dexter" and "Breaking Bad" in that it's protagonist(the oh so sketchy Frank Underwood) is having the walls begin to close in on him. While everything seems alright now for Frank, I wouldn't be surprised if by the season's end Lucas makes some shocking discoveries. If I'm correct and HoC goes down that same route this is certain to be one hell of a thrill ride.
Overall, this was a stunning premiere. Without a doubt the best episode of House of Cards yet. I'm hoping to review all of the episodes one by one this year. Right now I'm watching episode two, so by tomorrow Chapter Fifteen's review will be up.

Debra's major fiction WIP is a series of Science Fantasy novels set in the near future of the Pacific Northwest. Book one is titled The Wyrdweaver.
I'm also working on a couple of short stories, intended for magazine publication, that take place in the "world" of the series—"our" world, mid-twenty-first century, after a series of costly wars and natural disasters, and a mysterious "eclipse" that seems to have given a few people extraordinary gifts. Or madness.
My first published short story was "Yardsticks." A whimsical bit of literary fiction, "Yardsticks" was published in 2003 in IMAGE issue 37. (It also won the Kay Snow award in 1998, sponsored by Willamette Writers, the largest writers organization in the Pacific Northwest. I have it in mind to publish the story digitally as an Amazon short for about a buck, so if you're interested in reading it, please sign up for my mailing list in the box on the right.
My first novel was a detective thriller. The Mystery of Things, was published in 2004 by Idylls Press.
TMoT has been out-of-print for a while, and I intend to keep it that way–I'm borrowing bits and pieces for the Grail Cycle–but copies are still available. Click on the image for more info.

Indian cuisine encompasses a wide variety of regional cuisines native to India. Given the range of diversity in soil type, climate and occupations, these cuisines vary significantly from each other and use locally available spices, herbs, vegetables, and fruits. Indian food is also heavily influenced by religious and cultural choices.
The development of these cuisines has been shaped by Hindu and Jain beliefs, in particular vegetarianism which is a common dietary trend in Indian society. There has also been Arab influence on North Indian cuisine from the years of Mughal and Delhi Sultanate rule.
Indian cuisine has been and is still evolving, as a result of the nation's cultural interactions with other societies. Historical incidents such as foreign invasions, trade relations and colonialism have also played a role in introducing certain foods to the country. For instance, potato, a staple of North Indian diet was brought to India by the Portuguese, who also introduced chilies and breadfruit.
Indian cuisine has also shaped the history of international relations, the spice trade between India and Europe is often cited by historians as the primary catalyst for Europe's Age of Discovery. Spices were bought from India and traded around Europe and Asia. It has also influenced other cuisines across the world, especially those from Southeast Asia, the British Isles and the Caribbean.
Indian cuisine reflects a 5000-year history of various groups and cultures interacting with the subcontinent, leading to diversity of flavors and regional cuisines found in modern-day India. Later British and Portuguese influence added to the already diverse Indian Cuisine.
The beginnings of Indian Cuisine lie with the ancient Indian civilizations of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. Since then, Indian Food has been influenced by a number of factors and each of these has made the food of India known the world over.
Experience yourself the diverse and wonderful dishes and experiment with cooking and tasting some of the most popular food recipes of the various regions of India. Hindu culture has a distinct style of cooking and eating.
The staples of Indian cuisine are rice, atta (a special type of whole wheat flour), and at least five dozen varieties of pulses, the most important of which are chana, toor, urad, and mung. Chana is used in different forms, may be whole or processed in a mill that removes the skin. Most Indian curries are fried in vegetable oil, however many substitutes can be used such as coconut oil or even mustard seed oil.
The most important spices in Indian cuisine are the chili pepper, black mustard seed, cumin, turmeric, fenugreek, ginger, coriander and hing. Another very important spice is garam masala which is usually a powder of five or more spices comprising of cardamom, cinnamon and clove. Some leaves that are widely used is the bay leaf, coriander leaf, and mint leaf. Typically in south Indian cuisine, curry leaves are used commonly. In sweet dishes, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, saffron and essence of rose petal are used.
Indian Chinese cuisine originated in the 19th century among the Chinese community of Calcutta, during the immigration of Hakka Chinese from Canton (present-day Guangzhou) seeking to escape the Opium Wars and political instability in the region. Exposure to local Indian cuisine, they incorporated many spices and cooking techniques into their own cuisine, thus creating a unique fusion of Indian and Chinese cuisine.
After 1947, many Cantonese immigrants fleeing political repression under Mao Zedong, opened their own restaurants in Calcutta, whose dishes combined aspects of Indian cuisine with Cantonese cuisine. Indian Chinese cuisine is heavily derived from traditional Chinese cuisine, it bears little resemblance to its Chinese counterpart. The dishes tend to be flavored with cumin, coriander seeds, and turmeric, which with a few regional exceptions, are not traditionally associated with Chinese cuisine. Chili, ginger, garlic and yogurt are also frequently used in dishes.
Popular dishes include Chicken Manchurian, Chicken lollipop, Chili chicken, Hakka noodles, Hunan chicken, and Szechwan fried rice. Soups such as man chow soup and sweet corn soup are very popular, whereas famous desserts include ice cream on honey-fried noodles and date pancakes. Indians consider a healthy breakfast (known in North India as nashta) important. They generally prefer to drink tea or coffee with breakfast, though food preferences vary regionally. North Indian people prefer roti, parathas, and a vegetable dish, accompanied by achar (pickles) and some curd. People of western India prefer dhokla and milk and South Indians prefer idlis and dosas, generally accompanied by various chutneys.
Lunch in India usually consists of a main dish of rice in the south and east, or whole wheat rotis in the north and west. It typically includes two or three kinds of vegetables, and sometimes items such as kulcha, naan, or parathas. Along with dessert, paan (betel leaves), which aid digestion, are often eaten after lunch in parts of India. Indian families often gather for "evening breakfast," similar to tea time to talk, drink tea and eat snacks. Dinner is considered as the main meal of the day.
There are many dietary restrictions that people follow based on the religion or faith they profess. Muslims in India do not eat pork and many Hindu communities consider beef taboo. Since it is believed that Hindu scriptures condemn cow slaughter, beef consumption has been banned in many states in India. Followers of the Swaminarayan sect do not eat garlic and onions because they are advised against it in the Vachanamrut. Jains follow a strict form of vegetarianism, known as Jain vegetarianism, which in addition to being completely vegetarian, also excludes potatoes and other root vegetables because when the root is pulled up, organisms that live around the root also die.
Traditionally, meals in India were eaten while seated either on the floor or on very low stools or cushions. Food is most often eaten with the right hand rather than cutlery. Often roti is used to scoop curry without allowing it to touch the hands. In the wheat-producing north, a piece of roti is gripped with the thumb and middle finger and ripped off while holding the roti down with the index finger. Traditional serving styles vary regionally throughout India. Contact with other cultures has affected Indian dining etiquette. For example, the Anglo-Indian middle class commonly uses spoons and forks, as is traditional in Western culture.
In South India, cleaned banana leaves, which can be disposed of after meals, are used for serving food. When hot food is served on banana leaves, the leaves add distinctive aromas and taste to the food. Leaf plates are less common today, except on special occasions.

Group 4: Biology, Chemistry or Physics
Biologists investigate the living world at all levels using many different approaches and techniques. Chemistry is an experimental science that combines academic study with the acquisition of practical and investigational skills. Physics is the most fundamental of the experimental sciences, as it seeks to explain the universe itself from the very smallest particles to the vast distances between galaxies.
What does this course involve?
Higher level (240 hours)
Internal assessment (individual investigation): 20%
External assessment: 80%
Standard level (150 hours)
Internal assessment (individual investigation): 20%
External assessment: 80%
Key features of the curriculum and assessment models
- Available at standard (SL) and higher levels (HL)
- The minimum prescribed number of hours is 150 for SL and 240 for HL
- Students are assessed both externally and internally
- Biology, Chemistry and Physics students at SL and HL undertake a common core syllabus and a common internal assessment (IA) scheme.
While there are core skills and activities common to both SL and HL students, students at HL are required to study the options and some topics in greater depth as well as some additional topics. The distinction between SL and HL is one of breadth and depth.
A practical approach to the course delivery is emphasised through the interdisciplinary group 4 project and a mixture of both short-term and long-term experiments and investigations.
Internal assessment accounts for 20% of the final assessment and this is assessed through a single individual investigation. This investigation may involve a hands-on approach, use of data-bases, modelling, simulation or a hybrid. Student work is internally assessed by the teacher and externally moderated by the IB.
The external assessment of the sciences consists of three written papers. In paper 1 there are 30 (at SL) or 40 (at HL) multiple-choice questions. Paper 2 contains short-answer and extended-response questions on the core (and Additional Higher Level (AHL) material at HL). Paper 3 has two sections; Section A contains one data-based question and several short-answer questions on experimental work on the core (and AHL material at HL). Section B contains short-answer and extended-response questions from each of the four options

Kāneʻohe is a census-designated place (CDP) included in the City and County of Honolulu and located in Hawaiʻi state District of Koʻolaupoko on the Island of Oʻahu. In the Hawaiian language, kāne ʻohe means "bamboo man". According to an ancient Hawaiian story a local woman compared her husband's cruelty to the sharp edge of cutting bamboo; thus the place was named Kāneʻohe or "Bamboo man". The population was 34,970 at the 2000 census. Kāneʻohe is the largest of several communities along Kāneʻohe Bay and one of the two largest residential communities on the windward side of Oʻahu (the other is Kailua). The commercial center of the town is spread mostly along Kamehameha Highway. From ancient times, Kāneʻohe was important as an agricultural area, owing to an abundance of rainfall. Today, Kāneʻohe is mostly a residential community, with very little agriculture in evidence. The only commercial crop of any consequence in the area is banana. Features of note are Hoʻomaluhia Botanical Garden and the new Hawaiʻi National Veterans Cemetery. Access to Kāneʻohe Bay is mainly from the public pier and boat ramp located at nearby Heʻeia Kea. Access to Coconut Island (restricted) is from the state pier off Lilipuna Road. Marine Corps Base Hawaii lies across the south end of Kāneʻohe Bay from the central part of Kāneʻohe, although the town stretches along Kāneʻohe Bay Drive to the base perimeter. The ZIP code for Kaneohe is 96744. There are three golf courses in Kāneʻohe: Pali Golf Course (public), Koʻolau Golf Club (privately owned but open to the public), and Bayview Golf Park (privately owned but open to the public).

There are a variety of treatments. It's a very individual experience. What works for one person, may not work for another. Due to adverse effects, I am unable to take any anti-depressants, which is what nortriptyline is. I had been in yoga classes for decades but when I became ill, I found the sustained positions of yoga too painful. I am currently doing very well. I don't take any meds at all. I eat a regular diet with minimal processed foods and vitamin supplements. I exercise by going on walks. I stopped identifying myself as "someone with fibromyalgia" and that helped a lot. You may notice that I haven't posted anything in a long time. I decided to take photos and write bad poetry instead.

The most helpful thing for me was Mindfulness Meditation and a careful, healthy, moderate diet with moderate but regular exercise. I personally think much of this illness is due to improper sleep (no stage four) which is helped through meditation in my opinion. I wish you much luck on your journey.

So sorry. Apparently, google didn't actually post it.

This Brain Fog is really difficult at the moment.

So, anyway, I'm so glad it resonated with you in some way. As you can see, it's not a new post. I had been doing so well, that I haven't posted on here in quite some time. But what I thought was a mild flare developed into a severe flare. So I now need to limit my time on the computer and most importantly social networking sites.

Anyway, I think we all forget the things listed in this post. Even I, someone who has been battling chronic illness for years now, forget. So when people start to get a bit agressive about telling me what treatment I should try or be on, instead of arguing with them, which doesn't seem to accomplish much, I post this :)

Also, so many people in the States don't realise that the diagnosis and treatment of chronic illnesses is completely different in other countries. So telling us what their doctor or doctors have done for them is not at all helpful. The diagnostic tests in the UK seem to be more rigorous than those in the States, as well.

Anyway, that's enough from me...

Many blessings,
RobinRobin Daltonhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5607731730427047594.post-74842439475357539802012-02-26T17:43:24.817+00:002012-02-26T17:43:24.817+00:00I love this, thankyou so much for posting it :) I ...I love this, thankyou so much for posting it :) I am fairly new to the world of the chronically ill, and I must admit I slip up on a couple of these - maybe again that is where it is so new to myself and my husband...

What is a Private Rehab?
Private rehab centers, for drug and alcohol addiction, are facilities that do not have a connection with the government and are privately owned and operated. The main goal of these facilities is to provide privacy for their clients. There are governmental privacy laws in place for rehabilitation centers, but private rehab centers go above and beyond to protect their clients.
In addition to privacy concerns, private rehab centers often offer extra features that public rehab centers do not have. For example, some private rehab centers are located in picturesque areas that are far removed from cities and metropolitan areas. In these remote places, owners of private rehab centers feel that they can better help their clients to focus on recovery and rehabilitation. Many public rehab centers will be located within hospitals or in residential neighborhoods; some are even located within urban centers. For select clients who are suffering from addiction, the remote locations of private rehab centers offer more peace, calmness and a better sense of focus for their recovery.
Another advantage of private rehab centers over the public variety is that the private rehab centers offer a secluded place for people from all walks of life. A CEO or a wealthy stockbroker might be together in a private facility with a teacher or a college student. Celebrities are also frequenters of these centers. All of these individuals require private drug rehab to avoid negative stories or fabricated assumptions about things surrounding their time in rehab.
Addiction to alcohol, drugs or any other substance or practice is widely viewed as a choice; this couldn't be farther from the truth though. Addiction is a disease and anyone who suffers from addiction knows just how difficult the disease can be. Furthermore, many sufferers of addiction also deal with mental disorders. This is called dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorders, and the symptoms can be extremely difficult to recover from.
Another difference between public and private rehab centers is the way that finances are handled. Public centers often receive funds from the government. Programs like Medicaid will sometimes pay for rehabilitation programs for people who could not otherwise afford it. For these individuals who have Medicaid, however, private rehab centers are often not covered and their only choice is to go to a public center located within a hospital.
At a private rehab center, the patients often fund their own rehab through private money. Occasionally, a client's family will foot the bill, or in some cases, a bank loan will be taken out to cover the costs. Private rehab centers are often more involved than public rehab centers. They may have more to choose from in terms of therapy, accommodation and recreational activities.
For example, in a public facility, patients often stay in rooms with other patients where they have a simple bed, desk and chair. But in private centers, there may be separate rooms with bathrooms and living quarters for each client. There might even be better food served at private rehab facilities; there is also a possibility that there will be a more holistic approach to addiction treatment at these private rehab centers as well. This holistic approach might include better nutrition, more physical and mental therapy and a less clinical feel within the walls.
If you or someone you know is suffering from addiction to drugs, alcohol or another substance or practice, seek professional help as soon as possible. Public or private rehab centers are both designed to help addicted individuals get back on their feet and live a healthier, sober life. An addiction is not to be brushed under the rug. If you think there may be a problem, get help before it gets even more difficult or even too late.

Today is pizza lunch at school. The parent council raises money for different school programs by selling pizza for lunch on a monthly basis and it is fun and exciting for the kids and also a nice break from packing lunch. At this point in the year, I have not yet started craving a break from lunch packing but was also not disappointed to not have to pack up school lunches today. In addition to lunch, the kids take a couple of snacks to eat mid morning and mid afternoon. The mid morning snack is particularly important for my kids because they don't eat much for breakfast and are probably very hungry by the time 1015 rolls around.
I have a lot of pears on hand and for some unknown reason the kids love apples but don't like pears. They do tolerate them in baked goods, so I baked some ginger and pear muffins and reduced my pear inventory by two. I try to keep a bunch of muffins on hand, in the freezer, to grab for snacks so that they have different muffins most days and to spare me a frantic search for something, anything, to pack for snack. I set aside a couple of these muffins after they came out of the oven and put the rest in a big zipper top bag in the freezer for another day.
We are having a big crowd over for dinner tonight to celebrate my mother's birthday so I have an unusually big selection of fruit that is intended for a fruit plate for dessert. I cut up some of it and packed it into a container for one snack and then tossed some edamame into another container. Back to the fruit – I found fresh jujubes at the supermarket today and they are amazing! I have tried dried ones before and didn't like them but was blown away by the fresh fruit. It is crisp like an apple but so much sweeter. I am disappointed that I did not buy more and will sadly have to disappoint my guests tonight since we ate all of them before they had a chance to make it to the fruit platter!
Today's fit tip: 30 tricep dips (heel of hand on any firm surface, slide butt off and drop down bend elbow and straighten back up, legs straight is more challenging). Feel free to email personal trainer Barb Rosenberg with any questions about the FIT TIP email@example.com

|For Queen and Country, no machine shall stand in our way!
Another member of England's noble families to join IMORTAL, KYLE ST JAMES did so out of a sense of honour and duty. A well-educated man, and a student of quantum physics, he was actually a candidate to join ITER, the international fusion research project. When he learned of IMORTAL's existence, he felt it his duty to Queen and Country to join them. His homeland had blessed him with so much privilege, it was time he returned the favour. His education helped IMORTAL to develop their Darkspace reactors, and in exchange they trained him to operate their advanced electronics vehicles. He fights with a ferocious sense of duty and obligation, not relenting until his mission is complete.

text: 000 FXUS63 KDLH 202004 AFDDLH Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Duluth MN 304 PM CDT Sun Aug 20 2017 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday) Issued at 304 PM CDT Sun Aug 20 2017 A cold front stretching from extreme northern Ontario through western Lake Superior and into northern Wisconsin, as of the middle of this afternoon, will continue shifting east through this evening. A trailing shortwave trough across the southern forecast area may produce just enough forcing to trigger some showers and storms across the southeast corner of the forecast area late this afternoon or this evening. Many of the models have backed off on this potential, but cannot rule it out. If any storms develop, not expecting those storms to be strong. High pressure will build into the Northland tonight, leading to mostly clear skies and very light wind flow. Models suggest it could be humid enough to produce some patchy fog late tonight. Lows will range from the upper 40s to middle 50s, with the coolest conditions across north-central Minnesota. A broad/subtle upper-level trough will approach and then move into the Northland Tuesday. It will bring weak/moderate large-scale forcing for ascent. It will first spread in high clouds that may end up obscuring the view of the early afternoon partial solar eclipse, which will peak around 1 pm. There may be less high clouds cover northwest Wisconsin than northeast Minnesota. The forcing will likely produce scattered/broken cumulus across much of the Northland during the middle and late afternoon. There will be low chances of showers and storms. The greatest chances of rain will be over the southeastern forecast area. Highs will be in the middle to upper 70s. .LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday) Issued at 304 PM CDT Sun Aug 20 2017 Becoming sunny and seasonable Wednesday and Thursday with increasing clouds on Friday. A cold front and the next chance for widespread rain arrives Saturday. On the synoptic scale a broad mid-level longwave trough will move from southern Canada across the Upper Midwest and Upper Great Lakes Monday night into early Tuesday. A cold front will be draped across southern Minnesota into northwest Wisconsin with rain showers along and ahead of the front. The front will exit Tuesday night, with a round of wrap-around showers possible in far northeast Minnesota and the MN Arrowhead Tuesday afternoon/evening. Cooler air moves in from the north as high pressure builds over the region Wednesday into Thursday. By late Thursday the high pressure shifts east to be over the Great Lakes region, with southerly flow developing at low levels across the Upper Midwest. A warm front lifts into the region Friday causing increasing clouds and a low chance for light precipitation, mainly limited to northwest Wisconsin. On Saturday a cold front tracks from west to east across the region leading to widespread rain showers and a few embedded thunderstorms. Cooler temperatures mid to late week with highs in the 60s to near 70 Tuesday and Wednesday, then closer to the low 70s Friday through the weekend. Lows in the 40s Tues/Wed/Thurs under clear skies, then in the 50s through the weekend. A few spots along and north of the Iron Range could even reach the upper 30s Wednesday night! (This would be hardly unusual for late August - record lows are as chilly as the 20s for some cooperative observing stations in northern Minnesota on Thursday.) && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon) Issued at 1222 PM CDT Sun Aug 20 2017 Generally VFR conditions are expected to prevail at all sites through the TAF period. Some MVFR ceilings possible today as a cold front moves through, but these conditions will be brief and only impact DLH and possibly HYR early this afternoon. Tonight there is some uncertainty in cloud cover, but if skies clear out some MVFR fog is possible, mainly at HIB and HYR. Winds around 10-15 knots out of the west-northwest today, becoming calm overnight. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
