It’s that time of year again – wild garlic season is upon us! I went home to Cumbria a few weeks ago, and couldn’t leave without making my annual stash of wild garlic pesto. I wanted to try something else this year too, though, and I’d had gnocchi on my to-make list for ages, so it all just fell into place.
These fluffy, potatoey pillows are so moreish. When packed with wild garlic they become something else: no longer just a carrier for other flavours, but with a deep, fresh, garlicky flavour of their own.
1. Begin by washing the wild garlic, discarding any discoloured leaves (and rogue blades of grass!). Whizz in a salad spinner, if you have one, and leave to dry.
2. Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a large saucepan with a pinch of salt and cover with water. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until a sharp knife can cut throughthem with no resistance. Drain, then set aside to cool and dry off.
3. Mash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Finely chop the wild garlic leaves (or blitz in a food processor), then mix into the mashed potato, along with the flour and plenty of seasoning, to form a dough.
4. Knead briefly on a lightly floured work surface, then cut the dough into four pieces. Roll each piece into a sausage shape, then cut into pieces (about 2.5cm wide). Lightly press each piece with a fork.
5. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, then turn down to a simmer. Add the gnocchi in batches, so as not to crowd the pan. Cook each piece of gnocchi until it rises to the surface of the water (this will take about 2 minutes), then remove with a slotted spoon. Leave to drain while you cook the remaining gnocchi.
If you wanted, at this point you could transfer the cooked gnocchi to a frying pan with a splash of oil to crisp up. I served mine as they were, with pine nuts, courgette ribbons, green beans and a brown butter sauce, topped with shavings of veggie parmesan.

PE shirts are wonderful for a number of reasons. Many physical education teachers require a change of clothes for the students. That's fine. No one wants to run around and play basketball in jeans, anyway. However, once having been a PE student, it can get a little annoying having to pick out an outfit all the time. Some kids just don't have the proper clothes. They may have shorts that are too short or too long. Oversized shirts can become cumbersome.
Sometimes, kids get made fun of because of the outfits that they bring from home. This can cause a child or teenager to want to avoid PE class. He or she may feign sickness or sit on the sidelines for as long as possible. Using PE shirts as a kind of uniform rids the class of any tempting reasons to make fun of others. Believe me, this happens more than adults realize. It can be quite damaging for a person who must bear this teasing a few times a week.
When you are designing your PE shirts and choosing colors, try to stay away from white. Dirt and sweat show up on white faster than any other color. In addition, if your class is partaking in a particularly rigorous activity, sweat can cause a white shirt to become see-through. This can be embarrassing for both girls and boys. If, for some reason, you must have white, get the thickest fabric available.
Dark colors such as blue or green are always good for physical education shirts. They look good with most skin tones and you can't see dirt too easily. To keep your costs low, use a logo of just one color. You may want to choose the school mascot or have different icons of sports. Use a basketball, tennis racket, sneakers, weights or whatever you like.

Former cricketer and Pakistan’s next Prime Minister Imran Khan has pledged to plant 10 billion trees across the country in the coming 5 years. The country presently has a dismal 2.2% forest cover, raising concerns that it could run out of forests if rapid deforestation is not stopped immediately.
This ambitious pledge builds on Khan’s Billion Tree Tsunami, a reforestation project that added 350,000 hectares of trees in the northwestern province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa between 2014-2017. The aim was to restore the region’s depleted forests and fight the effects of global warming.
Erik Solheim, the head of the United Nations’ Environment Program, praised the new tree-planting program.
“Good to see this strong message from @ImranKhanPTI to plant 10 billion trees! Pakistan is one of the countries at the frontlines of climate change,” he tweeted.

text: Modern Britain is a nation shaped by wars. The boundaries of its separate parts are the outcome of conquest and resistance. Warrior heroes - real, imaginary and a mixture of both - are deeply embedded in the collective memories and culture of the English, Welsh, Scots and Irish. Boadicea, King Arthur, Wallace, Rob Roy and Henry V still enjoy a powerful hold over the imagination. Britishness has had a sense of collective identity which grew under careful official cultivation during the global struggles of the 18th century and found its most powerful expression during the world wars of the 20th.;Modern war was seen as the ultimate test of a nation's moral and physical stamina, and Britain emerged with an enviable record which underpinned national pride and a sense of superiority that survived well into the second half of the 20th century. This book investigates and examines the part played by war in the making of Britain, embracing the most recent historical and archaeological research.

In June 2009, the musician released his 2nd instrumental album. With the intention to allow the public to have full access to the CD, all tracks have been available on the Internet for free download through his website.
In this album, the Brazilian music has been the major influence in his compositions. Using the formation of guitar, bass, drums and percussion, the compositions are a simple and good humored mixture of guitar riffs with Brazilian rhythms.
The 10 tracks of the album are filled with Brazil’s northeastern rhythms. On the CD, Brazilian rhythms such as Frevo, Baião and Ciranda are performed in an energetic and lively style. Frevo is present in the tracks “Boneco de Olinda”, “Catando Cavaco”, “Frevão” and “Rodando a Baiana”, in which the typical melodies are well performed and very well supported by the remarkable pace of frevo transferred to the drums. The distorted guitars are also present on the album giving more power to the compositions. Highlights are given to “Baião Atômico”, “Gonzaga Metal”, “Izaú” and “Lampião Cabra Macho”, where the guitar riffs are blended to the Baião rhythm, which is very well reproduced by the triangle and the zabumba (type of bass drum) instruments. The Ciranda rhythms are present in the tracks “Quentão com Gasolina” and “Mangue do Agreste”, where the melodies transport the listeners’ imagination to a typical São João feast, full of Brazilian rhythms and sounds.
All these elements confirm that the instrumental music has no boundaries and it is very good to know that those opportunities are being explored by musicians who use music as a tool to express their ideas and feelings.
All the songs were composed and arranged by Klaus Ximenes.
The recordings were made in the studio of Cia da Música.

Depression is something that should not be taken lightly. It is a serious condition, that is not easy to notice. Sometimes people suffer from depression for months or even years without knowing about it.
A lot of famous people have experienced depression. This might have even given them more greatness, because of the deeper emotions. Depression is not always easy to see, but it usually reflects on the person’s creations, whether it is music, art or writing.
People, who suffer from depression, need to have some purpose or meaning in their life. They do not want to live a regular life, they want to accomplish great things and somehow change the world.
There might be a tiny sign, but if you notice it, try to help them as much as possible. Usually, people do not want to seem weak, so they hide their true feelings. If you are close with someone, who is depressed, they might turn to you for help.
Someone, who is dealing with depression knows, what helps them to ease their pain. They know that sugar and caffeine will make them feel better and also some medicine can help. But usually, same drugs do not work the same way on them as on ordinary people. For example, a simple painkiller won’t assist them with their headache.
Depressed people reflect on the meaning of life and what comes after. They are often curious about the concept of mortality. Some people with deeper issues also deal with suicidal thoughts as well.
Some people forget to eat at all, or they just do not want any food. When they are feeling their worst, everything makes them feel sick. Others tend to eat a lot salty and sweet snacks while they are feeling down. Anyway, none of them eats regularly nor in a healthy way.
Like with eating, some depressed people cannot sleep at all and lie awake at night in the bed. Others have a hard time getting out of bed because they feel tired and unmotivated all the time. Irregular sleeping habits can affect both the physical and the emotional well-being.
They feel insecure and are always afraid that someone they love will walk out of their life for good. Living in fear all the time is exhausting for them, but they just cannot chill down and go with the flow. They become more secretive and with that tend to push their loved ones away.
They can hide their depression in a very believable way if they want to. They are professionals at coming up with different excuses and cover-up stories for not answering the phone or having not slept at all during the last night. They are also masters at changing the subject quickly.
Depressed people, who acknowledge their problems, often want to make changes. They try different things to make them happy. For example, they can take up a new hobby, go traveling or find new people.
People, who suffer from depression, do not want to burden others, so they hide their real emotions very well. They can even make their closest friends believe that everything is fine. They might look happy and healthy on the outside, but inside they might feel like dying.
They needed to feel safe and loved like everybody else. They even need it more than others. Depressed people tend to hide their true feelings, but not because they want to be fake or dishonest, but because they want to protect themselves and others.
They tend to overthink everything that happens in their life. They might lie in bed awake at night and think about all the conversations they had during the day. Analyzing every situation and person can be quite exhausting, and they start to imagine things that did not happen.
If you know someone, who is suffering from depression, try to be there for them and help them. Sometimes all they need is a friendly face, who will listen to them and comfort them. If you are the one, who is depressed, try to seek help. It is always easier to handle things when you share them with someone you trust.

2. Will my insurance cover your bill? In the vast majority of cases, our bill is paid by the insurance company. For specifics, review your policy.
3. I had a water damage occur in my house. Why can’t I just let it dry on its own? Doing nothing when water damage occurs can be disastrous. Mold, mildew and overall damage to structural integrity can occur. In addition, a homeowner that delays in getting water damage taken care of can be denied a claim if they decide to repair the problem at a later time because often insurance companies will consider this owner neglect. It is best to take care of the problem immediately to avoid further complications.
4. How long does your drying equipment need to stay in my house? On average, it takes three to five full days for a structure to dry with the proper equipment. Insurance company protocol calls for a minimum of three days for equipment to be on site. Although the affected area may seem dry, there is often hidden moisture that needs to be resolved.
5. I just have a minor drywall damage that needs to be repaired. Do you do small jobs? Archer Services does all kind of jobs, from small repairs to major restorations.
6. My house is completely dried out, but there are damaged areas. Now what? Archer Services is a full restoration company; we can see you through the whole repair process. We are the restoration experts!
7. Your website mentions “direct insurance billing”. What is that? Archer services uses the same pricing software as the major insurance companies. Therefore, we are able to deal with the adjuster directly, creating less of a burden on the homeowner.
8. I live in rural Georgia, in the country. Do you provide services here? Yes. We service the following areas; Dekalb, Gwinnett, Paulding, Bartow, Cobb, Fulton, Cherokee, Coweta, Forsyth, Dade, Dawson, Douglas, Fannin, Fayette, Gilmer, Hall, Lumpkin, Murray, Pickens, Walker, Whitfield, Carroll, Clayton.
9. What causes water damage? Water damage can occur for a variety of reasons. Flooding, burst pipes, roof leaks, overflowing septic tanks, leaks in the plumbing system and malfunctioning household appliances, such as refrigerators or hot water heaters, are common causes of water damage that we see on a regular basis.
10. How quickly can mold growth occur? Mold spores from excessive moisture after water damage can cause mold spores to start growing within 48-72 hours. The rate of growth can vary based on moisture level, temperature, etc. As long as the issue is dealt with promptly and completely, mold will not be an issue.
11. Is mold dangerous? Yes. Molds can cause serious health problems, especially with people who already have sensitivities to it. Molds can trigger strong toxins or irritants that can worsen allergies and cause asthma attacks. Three of the most dangerous and commonly found indoor toxic molds are stachybotrys (black mold), asperigillus and penicillium.
12. I recently bought an older home. We took out a wall, and then we found asbestos. Now I need to have it removed. Do you remove asbestos? Yes, we do. We are certified to remove asbestos safely from your home. Asbestos has harmful chemicals in it that can be hazardous to your lungs, and you don’t want them in the air. Asbestos has been linked to Lung Cancer and death. If you aren’t sure where the asbestos is in your home, let us test it for you. We can also safely remove it so that no one is harmed and your home is restored.

Dave and I like talking about podcasts. A lot.
So we were really chuffed to be invited to run a workshop on how to create and launch a successful podcast as part of the Monzo Presents From Scratch Festival last week.
It’s always fun to run these sessions, it’s a great way to consolidate your own knowledge as well as meet potential podcasters who are excited about the medium.
We worked with a really interesting group of people who had loads of questions and ideas about podcasts. Here are three of the most interesting questions we were asked and our answers to them.
1) Is it OK to change the format of your podcast once you’ve launched it?
A: The amazing thing about podcasts is how versatile they are. The amount and variety of podcasts available is testament to the fact that there aren’t really any rules, so strictly speaking it shouldn’t matter. However, everything comes back to your audience and what they want and expect. The most successful podcasts are brands in themselves. What this means is that listeners will have certain expectations when a new episode is published. It might be that they’ll hear the voice of a trusted, familiar host, maybe they know there will be a spellbinding true story that has them gripped for the length of their commute, or perhaps they expect withering political satire. These elements- along with others- form part of the sonic identity that makes the listener download and subscribe. In short, some variety in format can be great and keeps things cool and interesting, but what’s essential is that the elements that make up your podcast’s core sonic identity remain constant throughout the series.
2) When can you expect to earn money from your podcast?
A: Realistically, most people won’t make money from podcasting. Start with passion, build your product step-by-step, improve the product with feedback from listeners, and make something people want to listen to first. Personally, I would only start thinking about monetising your podcast once you reach the 20k downloads per episode mark. As brands start to make waves in the podcast space, marketing teams are beginning to understand them as a way to make an impact by association rather than short term financial gain. So do it for the love- you’re far more likely to make something that other people love that way.
3) Is the audio recorded on your phone good enough to make a podcast?
A: Yes, to start with it is. Ultimately, you get what you pay for. Making a successful podcast is a lot like building a successful start-up business. Start small, test your ideas. Once those ideas are validated (you have listeners, you get feedback, people enjoy your features, etc) start investing in equipment, platforms and editing expertise and marketing. It takes patience, it’s a long-game but success in podcasting, like any industry, comes with small and steady steps.

Home Constitutional News Supreme Court Cracker Ban: Ready for a Green Diwali?
Cracker Ban: Ready for a Green Diwali?
On September 24, 2015, a writ petition was filed in the Supreme Court on behalf of three petitioners —two aged six months and one 14 months. A first of its kind, the petition said that the chemical composition of firecrackers adds to the already polluted air quality and asked the Court to ban their use in any form during festivals or otherwise. It, along with other connected writ petitions, urged the Court to pass interim orders regarding firecrackers.
It is a well-known fact that there are multiple contributors to the bad ambient air, especially in Delhi-NCR. Air quality in the area deteriorates with the onset of winter. The burning of stubble in neighbouring Punjab and Haryana adds to the pollution. Post-Diwali evening, there was a rise in PM2.5 levels by up to three times in Delhi in 2016.
What is so harmful about firecrackers? The chemical footprint left behind by them is toxic and has a deadly effect on children. Children—due to their hyper-activity—inhale more air and therefore, more toxicity. Their immunity is weaker than adults, making them more vulnerable. Chemicals such as barium nitrate and cadmium compounds cause respiratory irritation and gastrointestinal problems, while aluminium sulphide is known to cause Alzheimer’s. Lithium and copper compounds cause hormonal imbalances and prove detrimental to physical and mental growth.
On November 11, 2016, the Court said that air pollution had gone up to 29 times the standard set by WHO. In an interim order, it directed the central government to ban the sale of fireworks within NCR. On September 12, 2017, the Court lifted the ban and allowed the sale of crackers with certain restrictions, effective from November 1, 2017, ie post-Diwali.
And on October 23, 2018, a bench of Justices AK Sikri and Ashok Bhushan ordered a conditional ban on firecrackers. It said only crackers with reduced emission and green crackers would be permitted to be manufactured and sold countrywide. The use of ash as a filter material in crackers is to be avoided, it said, in order to reduce particulate matter (PM) by 15-20 percent. It also wanted reduced emission firecrackers with PM reduction by 30-35 percent. Manufacture, sale and use of joint firecrackers, popularly known as “laris”, is banned.
Apart from air pollution, there is the issue of noise and solid waste associated with crackers. Barium salts which cause respiratory irritation and other harmful effects are also banned from being used in crackers. Online sale through e-commerce websites is banned and only licensed sellers are allowed to sell firecrackers which meet the approval set by the Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO), the Court said. PESO was directed to review the chemical composition of fireworks and ensure that the sale and purchase of the permitted fireworks are only during religious festivals like Diwali or occasions such as marriages. The order permitted crackers to be burst only from 8-10 pm on Diwali night and 11:55 pm-12:30 am on Christmas and New Year’s Eve nationwide. The governments at the Centre and Delhi-NCR were directed to identify designated spots for community celebration. The police is responsible for ensuring that fireworks are lit only in these designated areas.
The apex court has taken the middle path by avoiding a total ban and applying certain restrictions which can be implemented. Green firecrackers haven’t yet become a buzzword, so there is much left to guess. According to Raju, a fireworks dealer, eco-friendly crackers are yet to take off. “These crackers are based on a vacuum combustion method, producing less smoke,” he said.
Pyrotechnics or fireworks science is still a work in progress. A technology tested by CSIR (quoted in the Court order) generates water mist/ vapour which brings down PM levels after the cracker has burst. There is also electronic cracker technology which is like a light and sound show.
As the order has come just two weeks before Diwali, cracker sellers may not be able to implement it. According to PCA Asaithambi, president of Tamil Nadu Fireworks and Amorces Manufacturers Association, to make green crackers, a different formula has to be followed and it would require at least two years and adequate support from the government to follow the order.
Citizens have diverse opinions about the Supreme Court order. Gaurav Mathews, a resident of west Delhi, told India Legal that a partial ban will not make much difference. “If people can find firecrackers easily, what is the point of a ban at all?” Vivek Chatterjee, a resident of Ghaziabad, asked: “Who knows how much of these green, low-emission crackers are available in Delhi-NCR? However, restricting the period for bursting crackers is a good move.” But Mathews disagrees. Cracker bursting is preceded by puja and most people begin to burst them only after dinner at around 9 pm. “I do not think anyone would be mindful of the time restriction,” he said.
Given that the air quality in Delhi has reached unhealthy levels, every step to make Diwali green will count. A huge responsibility rests on the Delhi government and the people themselves to bolster this step by the apex court.

text: DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Primary hyperoxaluria, type 1 (PH1) is a rare, monogenic disorder in which a mutation in the AGXT gene leads to overproduction of oxalate by the liver, resulting in widespread deposition of calcium oxalate in the kidneys and other organs. Unfortunately, PH1 disease progression is not understood. Despite identification of the AGTX mutation, there is little genotype-phenotype correlation in these patients, with kidney stone formation and loss of kidney function proceeding in a seemingly haphazard fashion. Many patients may progress to end- stage kidney disease (ESKD), despite current supportive therapy. An objective diagnostic that accurately detects PH1 and identifies individuals at high risk for rapid progression to ESKD is an unmet clinical need. Clearly, no single molecular marker, or small group of markers, will be able to meet this need. Common proteomic technologies, such as Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), lack the ability to quantify multiple biomarkers simultaneously. One-at-a-time assessment of each putative biomarker incurs considerable time, cost and sample volume. Newer technologies lack sensitivity, precision and automation. The ability to systematically identify protein profiles, predict risk of clinical events, evaluate therapeutic response, and define underlying mechanisms is thereby limited severely. Rules-Based Medicine (RBM) resolved these limitations by developing bead-based, multiplexed immunoassays for identifying disease-specific Multi-Analyte Profiles (MAPs). Exciting preliminary data indicates that MAP technology is well suited for screening large numbers of markers in parallel to identify protein profiles associated with PH1, and may provide insight into the disease course. During Phase I, RBM, and Children's Memorial Hospital (CMH) propose to utilize this quantitative proteomics approach to compare the protein profiles in urine samples obtained from patients diagnosed with PH1 vs. age- and gender-matched control populations. The level and pattern of expression for 201 proteins will be studied. It is expected that the physiological insight obtained from the proposed study may be used to better define the pathological mechanisms associated with PH1. During Phase II, a prospective validation of the MAP identified for PH1 during Phase I efforts will be performed. The sensitivity, specificity,and positive and negative predictive values for each analyte, as well as, the MAP of biomarkers for predicting progression of the disease to ESKD will be determined. In addition, a proposed physiological range of MAP analytes for children and adolescents will be developed based on age, and gender for both the normal and PH1 populations. Such range values, typically used for diagnosis and intervention, can be used as a reference for future studies and for the development of both a diagnostic test and therapeutic algorithms. The identification of novel biomarker patterns of individuals with PH1, as well as, individuals at high risk for rapid progression to ESKD, will allow for improved management of the condition by objective selection of treatment course or dosage, determining treatment effectiveness, and providing a framework for developing and evaluating new treatments.

To start up a gas turbine engine, everything must work in sync with each other.
When it comes to gas turbine engines, there is a starting sequence that is vital to adequate function of the plane. Like other internal combustion engines, a gas turbine engine cannot produce any torque at zero speed. The starting mean system is used to start the turbine engine and crank it to a firing speed. This is accomplished by means of a motor, generator, or other starting device operating through a torque convert coupled to the accessory gear. Without any of these devices, there would be no turbine starting sequence – hence the plane would be stuck in a neutral position.
The turning gear provides enough power necessary to breakaway and rotate the turbine prior to the start of the turbine, and also to rotate the shafting after the turbine shuts down to avoid deformation.
Gas turbine lubrication is vital in the startup process. Before the actual start up and after shutdown, gas turbine lubrication is applied to ensure that there is effective lubrication of the gas turbine engine as well as to increase the performance of the turbine engine as well.
When it comes to the startup process, many planes generate electricity on their own. However, there are portable power units that can help the startup process, which are actually used at smaller airfields. These units can provide the aircraft with enough electrical current to function even without the engine being on.
Start Pac can help you find the right portable power pack for your aircraft today. For more information, visit them online.

Völlig von einem Meister diese sauber renoviert, 1 Schlafzimmer, 1 Bad Kabinen verfügen über eine Küche mit einer vollständigen Palette, Mikrowelle und Mini-Kühlschrank. Mit dem Nötigsten benötigt, um selbst zu kochen, wenn Sie dies wünschen, eingerichtet. Wir bieten auch einige Lebensmittel aus lokaler Produktion Elemente wie frisch gerösteten Kaffee, lokal geernteten Honig und unglaublich Olivenöl und Balsamico-Essig.
Wir sind bequem direkt am Highway 2 entlang der historischen Trap-line folgenden Flathead River Glacier National Park entfernt. Nur wenige Minuten vom Westeingang des Glacier National Park, Flathead Lake, Whitefish Mountain Resort, Glacier Int. Flughafen, mehrere Golfplätze, dem Flathead River und Wildwasser-Rafting.
Unser Eigentum ist ein Nichtraucherhotel.
My husband and I recently stayed in the cabins and we had such a wonderful time. Laura was always quick to respond and she was so helpful with all the details and had great information about Glacier National Park and the surrounding areas. The cabins were clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our visit. We spent most of our time in Glacier, Whitefish and Columbia Falls. So many beautiful things to see!
We stayed here during the second week of September. We found the cabin to be quite clean and comfortable. Everything worked fine. There are basic dishes and kitchen tools so you can cook simple meals if you are so inclined. The cabin is very close to West Glacier and the west portal to the national park. The bed is very comfortable and the cabin heat worked well during those 30 degree overnights. Overall, a great experience!!
The accommodations were very nice. Everything was clean and fresh.
The only down side was that it was located at a busy intersection with a red light. Lots of traffic noise especially logging trucks and motorcycles.
The up side was its closeness to the west entry to Glacier National Park.
Nice new and clean. Owner is great. Loaned us bear spray for our hikes in park.
Excellent spot to stay! Highly recommend.
Stayed here for 3 nights with my best friend - the space was clean and hostess was great. Laura welcomed us promptly when we arrived. The kitchen and bathroom were well equipped with everything one could need. Fresh towels, shampoo/conditioner/body wash was also included. The kitchen had all the essentials - toaster, stove/oven, coffee maker (fresh coffee), pots/pans, mini fridge, and even aluminum foil. There was a grocery store called Smith's close by (in the family brand of Kroger), to save on food costs we shopped for our food needs there, packed our lunches and snacks, and used every aspect of the kitchen for dinners. The location is about a 15 minute drive to west glacier entrance and about 1.5 hours to east glacier entrance. It was a great place to return to after a day of adventures in and around glacier national park. Super comfy bed. I highly recommend staying with Laura - you'll be in good hands.
Stayed here while we spent three days hiking in Glacier. Very nice place, full kitchen. Very convenient to Glacier, Columbia Falls and Whitefish.
Would consider staying here for future trips to Glacier.
