The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that a company protect machine operators and anyone who might be in the vicinity of hazards associated with the operation of those machines.� Potential hazards exist at points of operation, in-going nip points, and wherever there are rotating parts, flying chips or sparks.
Machine safeguards should be installed and maintained to prevent contact, and be secure enough that they cannot be easily removed or tampered with. Safeguards should not only protect machine operators, but keep objects from falling into moving parts.� Take care that the safeguard does not impede the worker from doing his job, or create a new hazard.� It should be possible to lubricate or maintain the machine without removing the safeguard.

Paul Halliday is Julian Bishko professor of history and chair of the University’s Corcoran Department of History. He writes about the legal history of Britain and its empire from the 16th to 19th centuries. His most recent book, Habeas Corpus: From England to Empire, was published by Harvard University Press in 2010 and won the 2011 Inner Temple Book Prize. He frequently consults in the writing of briefs submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court on issues connected to English legal history.
Halliday's research has been supported by fellowships from the American Council of Learned Societies, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Mellon Foundation, and the American Philosophical Society. He is now working on two research projects: one exploring the archival and other material forms of judicial authority in the 18th century and the other concerned with the formation of the imperial constitution, and in particular, with the judicial role in the making of empire. Through all his work runs a persistent interest in rethinking English law’s history and the use of that history in U.S. courts, as well as an interest in the relationship of English law to other legal regimes around the globe.

Google Home is a voice assistant smart speaker that connects and automates a myriad of tasks and gives users an easy way to access information. The popularity of these voice assistant speakers has been exploding in recent years and some users will opt to control their entire smart home using their voice. One of the corner stones of any smart home is the ability to power and control outlets wirelessly or inside of complex event chains using things like IFTTT software.
One of the problems with adding more and more smart home devices to a home is that there are so many different brands that usually all come with their own software and some type of central hub. As you can imagine, this can get a little complicated and making sure that your devices are compatible with each other is paramount.
For me, I prefer to keep the proprietary hubs to a minimum and generally if I can use my Amazon Echo Dot or Google Home smart speaker as a central hub for all of my devices that is definitely an ideal situation. Obviously things like security cameras will likely need their own hub, but for things like smart plugs it seems a bit unnecessary. So what are the best smart plug’s that connect to Google Home, don’t have an unnecessary hub, are compatible with other devices and are easy to use?
More and more products are starting to come out that don’t need you to get another hub, because let’s be honest, it’s getting a little ridiculous. So with a quick Google search you can find a bunch of smart plugs that have “No Hub” in the title. So how do we choose one out of so many choices? Well, obviously you don’t want to pay too much, you’ll want one that has a reliable connection and obviously you don’t want your smart plug to have a tendency to catch fire randomly. So for this list we’re going to stick to plugs that have been around and while and are tried and true.
The Geeni Spot smart plugs are by far my favorites. You might be thinking “How can you have a favorite smart plug, it’s just an outlet with wifi?” Well as I mentioned earlier connectivity is very important. And I’ve had some pretty unreliable smart plugs in the past that wouldn’t work randomly or lose connection to my wireless network. I have never had this issue with the Geeni plugs. They also have a pretty decent app that you can use to control them if you don’t want to use Google Home or Alexa.
Another bonus is that they are relatively inexpensive and come in a variety of different options. Personally I like the ones that also have some USB ports on the because there really isn’t a spot around my home that I don’t charge my phone at. You can get these smart plugs at Home Depot or online for about $20 a pop.
The intelliPlug smart plugs are pretty basic, but where they may lack in features, they more than make up for in price. They work with Alexa and Google Home and don’t require a hub. They also have a pretty strict certification process and it’s very unlikely that you will run into any issues with these. You can get these online for about $12.
The Merkury Innovations smart plugs combine the best of the two options above. They are cheap like the intelliPlugs (about $12) and they have a lot of the features of the Geeni. In fact, they actually use the Geeni app. You can get these at Walmart or online and have free shipping. They connect to Alexa and Google Home and work well.
If you’re looking to set your whole home with smart plugs, the KULED smart plug 4 packs are going to be great bang for your buck. They are made of fire retardant material, connect with google home, have no hub, and have an app that you can use to control and set timers.
A recent study showed that 3 out of 5 Americans claim that home security is the top benefit of owning a smart home. So if you’re planning on loading up your home with smart home devices you might want to consider implementing Protect America. Protect America ships directly to your home, installs in just a few minutes, and can connect to all of your smart home devices. Call or get a free quote online and protect your smart home today!

If you’re a landowner and you’re interested in reaping the countless benefits of a stewardship project on your property, there’s plenty of funding and experts available to help you.
That was the take-home point during the launch of the Battle River Watershed Riparian Restoration Program, hosted Aug. 9 at Ruzicka Sunrise Farm north of Killam.
“The biggest message is that there’s information and there’s people and money available to help landowners if they’re interested in stewardship projects or if they’re just trying to do something productive, even with some of their marginal lands,” explains Susanna Bruneau, policy research coordinator with the Battle River Watershed Alliance.
“We’re trying to make sure the land is used as best as possible, whether it’s marginal land – even if it’s pasture land – how can we make sure that it is utilized well so it benefits everyone and everything?
Along with the Battle River Watershed Alliance, the launch was also sponsored and organized by the Agroforestry and Woodlot Extension Society (AWES), Cows and Fish: Alberta Riparian Habitat Management Society, the Iron Creek Watershed Improvement Society, and Flagstaff County.
Don Ruzicka discusses his innovative gravity watering system, which includes a swale and massive tank, on his farm north of Killam.
The five-hour event was attended by a handful of area landowners and included a tour of Don and Marie Ruzicka’s farm, featuring discussions on shelterbelts, eco-buffers, pollinators and riparian plantings.
The Ruzicka farm is an example of what you can do “on a whole bunch of different fronts,” notes Kerri O’Shaughnessy, riparian specialist with Cows and Fish: Alberta Riparian Habitat Management Society.
Jeff Renton, project manager with AWES, points out that there’s a variety of benefits that can be achieved through improved land management.
Jeff Renton, project manager with Agroforestry and Woodlot Extension Society, demonstrates willow stake planting.
“For instance, through tree planting in fields, you can have higher soil moisture levels, more pollination, more pest control and potentially improved soil fertility,” he explains.
“As you saw with Don’s shelterbelts, you can have a very specific function – you want to take the wind off your cattle or you want to keep more snow across the field – but if you add a few more elements into the design – having a wider shelterbelt, having more diverse species – you can add so many more of those extra benefits that don’t really cost much more than the initial planting itself.
And the benefits are far-reaching.
Don Ruzicka says it boils down to the fact that every one of us is responsible to care for the land.

Field sites | Tokyo Measuring Instruments Laboratory Co., Ltd.
Here we present case studies where measurement systems have been deployed in different types of construction projects.
Steel beam bridge measurement is divided into four categories: static loading measurement, dynamic loading measurement, frequency measurement and vibration measurement. In the static loading measurement, the status of the generation of static stress using a test car is seized, and in the dynamic loading measurement, that of dynamic stress during a test car or ordinary car passing is observed.
In constructing a caisson, settling of the entire caisson must be measured while at the same time monitoring the incline of the entire caisson, the balance of reaction force at the cutting shoe, water level, air pressure within the caisson, stress in all areas of the framework, etc. to manage construction.
Conditions to be monitored when constructing retaining walls include subsidence, movement and displacement of ground, groundwater conditions, lateral pressure on earth retaining walls, deformation and pressure conditions of earth retaining structures, and so forth. The collapse of retaining walls, effects of collapse on surrounding ground, heaving, boiling, and other dangerous phenomena must be detected and necessary actions must be taken as quickly as possible. Therefore, an online measurement system using computers and data loggers is used.
During pavement construction, driving tests, loading tests, and long-period deterioration tests are conducted using various types of sensors to check the degree of fatigue in relation to the load bearing capacity.
TML small FWD system "FWD-Light®"is a testing device applicable for management and rigidity evaluation of soil structures such as a fill, cut, subbase course and subgrade. As it is easy-to-handle and portable and can measure subgrade reaction coefficient "K"and subgrade elastic modulus "E"in a short period of time, real time feedback to construction site is possible.
Important items in construction management of embankment construction on soft soil include construction control and phase management by way of measurement control, degree of safety of an embankment, limit load and limit deflection, settlement and uplift. It is necessary to grasp changes in settling/horizontal displacement of the ground accompanying embankment loading, as well as in soil pressure and pore pressure within the ground so as to enable action quickly, and online measurement is carried out using a computer and data loggers.
The load from the many different types of stage equipment and lighting (hanging fixtures) suspended from the overhead of an event hall is measured and monitored so that it is located within a predetermined load position (pattern). If a suspended load exceeds this range, it is relayed to the operator by an alert displayed on the computer and output at the connection (alert lamp, buzzer, etc.), to support facilities maintenance and management during an event.
The displacement of surrounding ground and tunnel support structures along with stress conditions are measured during tunnel excavation to ensure work safety and economic efficiency.
As the cross section of an underground opening becomes large, ground stability decreases and a large-scale support structure is required. The stability of an opening depends on surrounding ground. Since it is very difficult to clarify the level of ground stability by conducting surveys, data on the behavior of ground gathered during construction is analyzed and analysis results are reflected to design and construction. This is an observational construction control system that our company proposes to customers.
During construction of an earth dam, pore water pressure in the dam body and its foundation ground is measured and data obtained is used to control earth (concrete) filling speeds. Deformation of the dam body and its foundation and the earth pressure on them are also measured during construction. After completion of a dam, the amount of infiltrating water in the dam body and foundation ground and the deformation of the dam body are measured to ensure safe dam operations. In addition, pore water pressure, osmotic pressure on foundation ground, the level of groundwater and so on are measured in order to grasp the state of water infiltration in both the dam body and its foundation ground.
With the spread of an excellent self-filling and high fluid concrete, a method of concrete being placed in the form directly has been frequently used. When concrete is filled in a narrow space or complicated shaped form, it is very difficult to visually observe the filling status of concrete. Here, we suggest a concrete filling management system for observing the condition of concrete placement.
In making a landslide measurement plan, it is necessary to have a thorough knowledge of the three-dimensional profile and the ground-movement direction of landslide area. A measurement system that TML recommends is a centralized, automated measurement control system in which measuring instruments, data loggers, computers, and so on are connected in an online network. The addition of a communication function would turn this system into a wireless communications measurement system.
●Static measurement: Stress and strain on a pier under no-load conditions are measured.
●Dynamic measurement: Stress and strain on a pier are measured by running a vehicle, such as a forklift loaded with maximum weight assumed to be applied.
At wind power generation facilities, especial those which are situated on the water and are unlike land-based facilities, static and dynamic load that occurs as a result of rocking and vibration of the facility due to the effects of tidal currents are grasped, so that the structural integrity of supporting structures (placed/floating) and towers can be verified and fatigue changes can be grasped.
The structural integrity test (SIT) of a reactor containment vessel is carried out using various sensors.
During construction of a dome and gymnasium, data on load and stress is collected using various sensors to verify the load bearing capacity (jacking-up and -down capacity).
A quake-damping structure uses various types of damping materials. For example, laminated rubber having low horizontal rigidity, slide bearings and so on are designed as part of the quake-damping structure in order to damp seismic force. A quake-absorbing structure uses a powerful shock-absorbing device to absorb seismic energy. Static and dynamic conditions of a structure are measured to check its quake-damping and quake-absorbing performance.

during construction of an earth dam, pore water pressure in the dam body and its foundation ground is measured and data obtained is used to control earth (concrete) filling speeds. deformation of the dam body and its foundation and the earth pressure on them are also measured during construction. after completion of a dam, the amount of infiltrating water in the dam body and foundation ground and the deformation of the dam body are measured to ensure safe dam operations. in addition, pore water pressure, osmotic pressure on foundation ground, the level of groundwater and so on are measured in order to grasp the state of water infiltration in both the dam body and its foundation ground.
with the spread of an excellent self-filling and high fluid concrete, a method of concrete being placed in the form directly has been frequently used. when concrete is filled in a narrow space or complicated shaped form, it is very difficult to visually observe the filling status of concrete. here, we suggest a concrete filling management system for observing the condition of concrete placement.
in making a landslide measurement plan, it is necessary to have a thorough knowledge of the three-dimensional profile and the ground-movement direction of landslide area. a measurement system that tml recommends is a centralized, automated measurement control system in which measuring instruments, data loggers, computers, and so on are connected in an online network. the addition of a communication function would turn this system into a wireless communications measurement system.
●static measurement: stress and strain on a pier under no-load conditions are measured.
●dynamic measurement: stress and strain on a pier are measured by running a vehicle, such as a forklift loaded with maximum weight assumed to be applied.
at wind power generation facilities, especial those which are situated on the water and are unlike land-based facilities, static and dynamic load that occurs as a result of rocking and vibration of the facility due to the effects of tidal currents are grasped, so that the structural integrity of supporting structures (placed/floating) and towers can be verified and fatigue changes can be grasped.
the structural integrity test (sit) of a reactor containment vessel is carried out using various sensors.
during construction of a dome and gymnasium, data on load and stress is collected using various sensors to verify the load bearing capacity (jacking-up and -down capacity).
a quake-damping structure uses various types of damping materials. for example, laminated rubber having low horizontal rigidity, slide bearings and so on are designed as part of the quake-damping structure in order to damp seismic force. a quake-absorbing structure uses a powerful shock-absorbing device to absorb seismic energy. static and dynamic conditions of a structure are measured to check its quake-damping and quake-absorbing performance.

Robert Manne’s new book, The Mind of the Islamic State, traces the evolution of the jihadist group’s world view. By poring over Islamic State’s texts, online magazines, and prison accounts by key figures, Manne offers insight into an ideology that most have heard of but few understand. In this extract, Manne unpacks the split between Islamic State and Al Qaeda.
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the Jordanian Islamist who led the Sunni insurgency in Iraq following the US-led invasion, was a man of action not of words. There exists, however, one fascinating lengthy letter from him to the leaders of Al Qaeda, dated January 2004, whose purpose was in part to begin what turned out to be a protracted negotiation for his movement’s entry into Al Qaeda.
Zarqawi begins within an apocalyptic frame. In Sham (the ancient name for Iraq and Syria) “the decisive battle between the infidels and Islam is taking place”. As Al Qaeda no doubt already grasps, he continues, the Zionist-led American administration of George W. Bush entered Iraq under “a contract to create the State of Greater Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates”. Their purpose was “to hasten the arrival of the Messiah”.
What is the political situation following the invasion? Zarqawi regards not the Americans but the Shi'as as the overwhelming problem for the Sunnis. They are “the most vile people in the human race”, “the insurmountable obstacle, the prowling serpent, the crafty evil scorpion, the enemy lying in wait”. Throughout history, the Shi’a have stabbed the Muslims in the back. Their religion “has nothing in common with Islam”. Perhaps worst of all, throughout history they have served the interests of the Jews.
We will trigger their rage against the Sunnis… [forcing them] to bare their fangs… If we manage to draw them onto the terrain of partisan war… soon the [Sunni] sleepers will awaken from their leaden slumber.
Prospects in this struggle are bright. Zarqawi concludes his letter by asking the leaders of Al Qaeda whether they accept his plan. If they do, he promises, they will have his allegiance.
The leaders of Al Qaeda, Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri must have faced a difficult decision in pondering future relations with Zarqawi. On the one hand, the ferocious battle Zarqawi was leading in Iraq was the most promising ever mounted by the Salafi jihadist movement. On the other, the war against the Shi’a Zarqawi was intent to fight represented a radical break in the history of the mujahidin. Clearly however admiration for Zarqawi and a judgment of the political advantages of alignment with him, overcame concern. In December 2004, Al Qaeda accepted the formal allegiance Zarqawi offered.
By God, if by chance you’re going to Fallujah, send greetings to Abu Mus’ab al-Zarqawi.
Most likely, although its contents were intended for Zarqawi, it was sent via another Al Qaeda member.
The letter documents Al Qaeda’s ambivalence about their new supporter. Zawahiri mounts a series of harsh and fundamental criticisms of Zarqawi’s leadership. The battle for the Islamic State cannot succeed without the support of the Muslim masses. They will never understand the disrespect that has been shown for the Sunni religious leaders. Zarqawi and his followers must not think of ruling on the basis of the mujahidin alone.
Zawahiri’s letter was obviously ignored. Some three months later, a senior Al Qaeda leader, Atiyatullah al-Libi, sent another, far blunter warning. If Zawahiri’s letter concerned Zarqawi’s political mistakes, al-Libi’s concerned the defects of his character. Although this letter is almost unknown in the scholarly literature, it is even more revealing than Zawahiri’s.
You need to look deeply within yourself and your character.
If he fails to heed these warnings he will be replaced.
It was clear by now that not only through his unrestrained brutality and the expanding circle of what he regarded as permissible under Islamic law but also in his attitude to the Shi’a that Zarqawi had transformed and radicalised the Salafi jihadist tradition.
Zarqawi was killed by the Americans on June 7, 2006. Shortly after his death, his successors fulfilled his wishes by announcing the existence of the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI). For a time, the warnings al-Libi had issued about the dire political consequences of Zarqawi’s brutal behaviour seemed accurate. The Americans found eager partners among the Sunni tribes in the anti-insurgency movement called the Sahwah, the Awakening.
Where is the Islamic State you’re talking about? We’re living in the desert.
The Islamic State of Iraq (ISI), by now under the leadership of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, emerged from the desert in 2011 at a propitious moment – the military and political withdrawal of the Americans from Iraq, the increasing persecution of the Sunni by the Shia-dominated government of Nuri al-Maliki, and the descent of Syria into civil war.
ISI began taking territory in the Sunni Triangle and despatched a small force to Syria led by Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, in what became known as the Nusra Front. In April 2013, ISI and the Nusra Front fell out speedily, spectacularly and bloodily after Baghdadi’s unilateral announcement of his leadership of a new political entity called the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), covering the lands of both Iraq and Syria.
By this time, Osama bin Laden had been killed by the Americans. Al Qaeda’s new leader, Zawahiri, attempted unsuccessfully to arbitrate the differences, requiring Jolani to limit his authority to Syria and Baghdadi to Iraq. His negotiating team was murdered near Aleppo by members of the Islamic State.
In September 2013, Zawahiri published what he called General Guidelines for Jihad, an apparent and belated attempt to re-assert Al Qaeda’s ideological authority over the global Salafi jihadist movement. Zawahiri reminded the mujahidin that their main struggle must be conducted against the Americans, whose weakening grip on power has been revealed by the Arab Spring. Fighting against “deviant sects”, like the Shi’a, ought also to be avoided except in the case of self-defence and even then only in proportion to the danger posed.
refrain from killing non-combatant women and children… from harming Muslims by explosions, killing [or] kidnapping… [and] from targeting enemies in mosques, markets and gatherings where they mix with Muslims or those who do not fight us.
Zawahiri’s guidelines were an attempt to rescue the Salafi jihadist movement from what he regarded as the grievous strategic, jurisprudential and sectarian errors introduced into it in Iraq by Zarqawi and his successors. Its publication formalised an ideological division in Salafi jihadism, between ISIS and Al Qaeda, as fundamental as the split that tore the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks apart in the years before the Russian Revolution.

a. Taking good photos of paintings is no easy feat.
b. I’m not sure I like all of these paintings. You might see a switch-up in the months to come.
c. I’m not an artist. I’m just a crafty gal who likes to smoosh paint around.
Thanks Carol!Some blog love is nice because it softens the oodles of rejections. Lol.
It's funny: No. 2 was the last painting I did and I was covering up another painting. It took me about 25 minutes to produce and I had to literally hide my brushes because I couldn't stop fiddling with it. But I was convinced I'd ruin it if I kept adding. No. 5 was my favorite, but now I think No. 2 is my favorite, too.
so pretty! I was excited to see you featured over at d*s, congrats!

Volkswagen To Commence Operating Electric Cars in North America from 2021 – The electric cars operation Plan from 2021 in North America, has been unveiled by Volkswagen. In addition, it also indicated that it intended towards going electrical for the rest of the nations by 2025.
The desire of the German car maker has come following its intentions to contribute to the transport sector in an eco-friendly way. With the pollution crisis in recent times, United States is a nation that has been affected the most. And this is why Volkswagen plans to make the country run electric cars and remain environment-friendly.
“Our industry will undergo more fundamental change over the next 10 years than ever before,” Diess said. He also said that most of the people will have Volkswagen electric cars as an eco-friendly alternative soon.
Following Volkswagen reveal he stated about cutting 30,000 jobs to make sure they save almost $3.9 billion and have much for future technologies. These might include self-driving cars, e-cars and other vehicle options.

Organic produce and other organic products are grown without the use of chemicals, artificial fertilizers, genetically modified animals, sewage, or pesticides. Poultry and eggs meat and dairy products are produced from animals that do not take antibiotics or growth hormones. Before a farm can be labeled as organic, a government approved certifier comes in to inspect the farm to be sure that the farmer is growing according to the rules necessary for USDA organic standards.
The definition of locally grown differs in opinion. While some say it is a 100-mile radius, others go beyond to a 250-mile radius. Another way to think about it is seasonal produce or stock from small farms, rather than large businesses that produce for supermarkets in bulk.
It is important to note that there are many farms that do not use pesticides, but they are not able to advertise themselves as organic because they have not gone through the inspection process. It is a long process to get certified. If organic food is important to you and you purchase local, simply ask your local farmer what their methods are for growing their produce and livestock. You may be surprised to learn that they safely grow their products as you would consider to be organic.
When you purchase your produce locally, you get the most nutritional value out of that produce. The faster you eat it from the time it is picked, the better the nutritional value. If you are not eating local, nutrients from your fruits and vegetables are depleting as they are being transported. 1500-miles or possibly even a week old is how you will find it at your grocery store.
Variety: Most of the best tasting fruits and vegetables cannot handle the shipping and handling process because they are so tender.
Assurance Of Farm Practices: When produce is coming from out of the country, we have no assurance as to how the produce was grown or what chemicals were used in the growth process. This rings true for the meat and poultry and dairy products as well. When buying from local farmers you can question their practices or if they are already insured by the government you can rest assured that they are organic if they are deemed to be so by the US government.
Local farmer support: It is always nice to support local businesses and local farmers. Your purchases from the local farmers assures that they stay in business and your community continues to grow.
Support the local economy: By spending your money in the community and keeping the money within, the local economy will encourage growth.
Direct environmental effects: Buying local reduces the gas that it would take to bring the produce to your part of the world. You are saving the environment from the pollution of the gas, the use of polluted soil, and polluting the groundwater.
There is growing concern among the scientific community that pesticides and other chemicals have long lasting effects on people. People are more susceptible to the effects of the pesticides in fetal development and in childhood. There has not been enough research done to determine the full impact of pesticides in foods, but it is still recommended to avoid pesticides whenever possible.
Does Washing & Peeling Help? Those precautions will help, but you won’t be able to completely eliminate the pesticide or other chemicals. Then you are also eliminating valuable nutrients when you remove the peel to avoid the pesticides. If you do not eat organic, your best option is to vary your diet, and wash all produce before eating.
When Should You Buy Organic?
Whenever possible. When that isn’t an option, try to go with the lowest contaminated pesticide fruits and vegetables by using the Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce.
What Is Produce Pesticide Load?
What Produce Are Top Of Toxic Load List?
The most contaminated fruits were found to be peaches and apples. A staggering 97% of the peaches and 92% of the apples tested positive for pesticides. An astounding 87% of peaches and 79% of apples had two or more pesticides on them. The remaining fruits and vegetables on the most contaminated list include the following: celery, cherries, strawberries, lettuce, potatoes, sweet bell peppers, nectarines, spinach, imported grapes, and pears.
On the Constantly Clean list were onions, avocados, and sweet cord. Short list! For these 3 foods, over 90% of the fruits sampled had no pesticide residue detectable. Other fruits and veggies on the list include the following: mango, asparagus, pineapples, bananas, kiwi, broccoli, sweet peas, cabbage, and papaya.

organic produce and other organic products are grown without the use of chemicals, artificial fertilizers, genetically modified animals, sewage, or pesticides. poultry and eggs meat and dairy products are produced from animals that do not take antibiotics or growth hormones. before a farm can be labeled as organic, a government approved certifier comes in to inspect the farm to be sure that the farmer is growing according to the rules necessary for usda organic standards.
the definition of locally grown differs in opinion. while some say it is a 100-mile radius, others go beyond to a 250-mile radius. another way to think about it is seasonal produce or stock from small farms, rather than large businesses that produce for supermarkets in bulk.
it is important to note that there are many farms that do not use pesticides, but they are not able to advertise themselves as organic because they have not gone through the inspection process. it is a long process to get certified. if organic food is important to you and you purchase local, simply ask your local farmer what their methods are for growing their produce and livestock. you may be surprised to learn that they safely grow their products as you would consider to be organic.
when you purchase your produce locally, you get the most nutritional value out of that produce. the faster you eat it from the time it is picked, the better the nutritional value. if you are not eating local, nutrients from your fruits and vegetables are depleting as they are being transported. 1500-miles or possibly even a week old is how you will find it at your grocery store.
variety: most of the best tasting fruits and vegetables cannot handle the shipping and handling process because they are so tender.
assurance of farm practices: when produce is coming from out of the country, we have no assurance as to how the produce was grown or what chemicals were used in the growth process. this rings true for the meat and poultry and dairy products as well. when buying from local farmers you can question their practices or if they are already insured by the government you can rest assured that they are organic if they are deemed to be so by the us government.
local farmer support: it is always nice to support local businesses and local farmers. your purchases from the local farmers assures that they stay in business and your community continues to grow.
support the local economy: by spending your money in the community and keeping the money within, the local economy will encourage growth.
direct environmental effects: buying local reduces the gas that it would take to bring the produce to your part of the world. you are saving the environment from the pollution of the gas, the use of polluted soil, and polluting the groundwater.
there is growing concern among the scientific community that pesticides and other chemicals have long lasting effects on people. people are more susceptible to the effects of the pesticides in fetal development and in childhood. there has not been enough research done to determine the full impact of pesticides in foods, but it is still recommended to avoid pesticides whenever possible.
does washing & peeling help? those precautions will help, but you won’t be able to completely eliminate the pesticide or other chemicals. then you are also eliminating valuable nutrients when you remove the peel to avoid the pesticides. if you do not eat organic, your best option is to vary your diet, and wash all produce before eating.
when should you buy organic?
whenever possible. when that isn’t an option, try to go with the lowest contaminated pesticide fruits and vegetables by using the shopper’s guide to pesticides in produce.
what is produce pesticide load?
what produce are top of toxic load list?
the most contaminated fruits were found to be peaches and apples. a staggering 97% of the peaches and 92% of the apples tested positive for pesticides. an astounding 87% of peaches and 79% of apples had two or more pesticides on them. the remaining fruits and vegetables on the most contaminated list include the following: celery, cherries, strawberries, lettuce, potatoes, sweet bell peppers, nectarines, spinach, imported grapes, and pears.
on the constantly clean list were onions, avocados, and sweet cord. short list! for these 3 foods, over 90% of the fruits sampled had no pesticide residue detectable. other fruits and veggies on the list include the following: mango, asparagus, pineapples, bananas, kiwi, broccoli, sweet peas, cabbage, and papaya.

Top tips to survive your summer holiday - Ideal Weight - Lose weight and keep it off.
With summer around the corner now is the time when we all start to think about the holiday we have been looking forward to all year. Summer holidays are the perfect time to relax and recharge, but they can also be a time when we find ourselves overindulging. One too many trips to the buffet table and all those exotic cocktails and we find ourselves on the plane home wondering why our clothes are now that bit snugger.
But worry not. We know the importance of that summer holiday so have put together this handy practical guide to help you enjoy your holiday and still keep on track with your weight loss and management plan.
Make it your focus to maintain your weight rather than gaining or losing. Remember you are on holiday so your focus should be to keep those extra pounds creeping back on. If you would rather continue to lose weight make sure you maintain your plan with careful planning.
Make the most of your chances to be active during your holiday; swimming in the pool / sea, taking walks and sightseeing. These are all great ways to get in some extra exercise during the day.
If you do have an exercise regime, try to find time to incorporate it during your holiday. It will make it much easier to carry on when you get back home.
The all you can eat buffet is the stuff of nightmares when it comes to weight loss and management. When you go up, pick one or two dishes. Use a smaller plate and don't be tempted to pile the food on. Remember; just because it's there, it doesn't mean you have to eat it!
Don't stand / sit near the buffet. Choose a table that is away from the food and if you are in a group that like to overindulge, eat slowly and enjoy your meal.
Make sure you are getting your daily amount of water and drink some before and during your meals to help you fill fuller.
Alcohol, another holiday favourite can also be the ruin of any weight loss / management plan. Keep an eye on the amount of alcohol you are drinking and try to avoid those drinks with hidden sugars like those tempting exotic cocktails. Another great way to limit your alcohol intake is to alternate each drink with a glass of water (you will feel better for it the next day too!).
If you do have a slip up DON'T let it throw you off your plan. A common mistake is to wake up the next morning feeling bad and then to blow it all out the window and go crazy. Just except that you had a slip up and get straight back on plan.

That got me thinking back to the 70s struggles ... when I was studying for the priesthood there was that clumsiness with Liberation Theology ... preferential option for the poor ... faith communities. Having had training in combat arms, when I heard that some priests in Latin American had picked up arms ... not many, of course ... but still. And of course, with the struggle against apartheid heating up ... you'll recall that Nelson Mandela used guns and bombs ... and our very very peaceful demonstration against the all-white cricket team on world tour ... priests and ministers, lawyers and doctors, students and parents, workers and kids ... of the 135 who came together, 63 of us were man-handled and charged with assault (at that time, the biggest group arrest in Alberta history, so I've been told). No tear gas, mind you, but the dogs were only metres away ... but still, the fact is we insisted on finishing our meal when the team wanted the cricket pitch, and so ... but still, "assault by tresspass"?!
But this libertarian site has my attention ... they have this quaint idea that fundamental rights have to be defended for the sake of us all. And I bet every one of them would pale at anything that was red ... or pink for that matter. And here's another quote!
fails; the vicious circle of the mute appealing to the deaf who denied them their voice.
spread-sheet thinking. Perhaps their skill and thoughtfulness was rooted in their humanity, and their reactions to injustice, and so then the paradoxes of action and theory could be grappled with from the stable base of their authentic integrity.
"When R. Buckminster Fuller recalled his days as a schoolboy in Milton, Massachusetts, he related how his mathematics teacher would introduce two-dimensional surfaces by placing lines of zero thickness side by side; young Buckminster used to wonder how one could create a finite surface out of nothing. Similarly, he could not accept the stacking of planes of zero thickness to create volumes. Intuitively, he sensed that areas and volumes are as different from each other as are forces and velocities: one cannot mix quantities of different dimensionality. Accordingly, Fuller learned to compare three-dimensional objects with each other, and hence to add, subtract, and transform them from and into each other rather than creating them out of objects of lower dimensionality. In doing so he came to discard the conventional orthogonal system which has blinded architects as well as solid-state scientists, and followed natural structure in designing his stable light-weight structures."
I would like to suggest that the dimensions of material productive activity and the activity of governance, which for me includes the axis of human happiness, intersect in a no less complex and subtle way. My point being that Fuller's actions are illustrative and exemplary: by following natural structures we, as a species, can design social structures, cultural constructs and the social relations that they engage, that serve us in dignity ... that is, in security and self-respect; our constructs can serve our true happiness. This is my understanding, and this is my belief.
