I would like to learn more about Indian aeromeda - a sort of philosophy about the treatment of illnesses.? Hey do you mean Ayurveda?\n\nAyurveda (आयुर्वेद Sanskrit: ayu—life; veda—knowledge of) or ayurvedic medicine is a more than 2 000 year old comprehensive system of medicine based on a holistic approach rooted in Vedic culture. Its conspicuous use of the word veda or knowledge reveals its role in early Hinduism and describes its hallowed place in India. Ayurveda also had a tradition of surgery. Two early texts of Ayurveda are the Charaka Samhita and the Sushruta Samhita.\n\nThe Charaka and Sushruta Samhitās are compendiums of two traditions rather than texts authored by single authors. A third tradition is that of the Kāshyapas. The scholarly traditions of ayurveda date back to the time of the Buddha who died (mahaparinirvana) in approximately 400 BCE. Some plant remedies of ayurveda are mentioned in the earlier Vedic literature 2nd millennium BC but the formal doctrines of the three humours and other key ayurvedic ideas are first mentioned in the Buddhist Canonical literature. Both the Sushruta and Charaka Samhitās are the product of several editorial hands having been revised and supplemented over a period of several hundred years.\n\nThe scholar Vāgbhata who lived in Sind at the beginning of the 7th century AD produced a grand synthesis of earlier ayurvedic materials in a verse work called Ashtānga Samhita. Another work associated with the same author the Asthanga Samgraha contains much the same material in a more diffuse form written in a mixture of prose and verse. The relationship between these two works and a third intermediate compilation is still a topic of active research. The works of Charaka Sushruta and Vagbhata are considered canonical and reverentially called the Vriddha Trayi the triad of ancients; or Brhat Trayi the greater triad. In the early eighth century Mādhav wrote his Nidāna a work on etiology which soon assumed a position of authority. In the 79 chapters of this book he lists diseases along with their causes symptoms and complications.\n\nThe vast majority of Ayurvedic therapies are herbal compounds. Some alchemical preparations start to enter the ayurvedic pharmacopieia towards the end of the 1st millennium AD in works such as those of Ugraditya (8th century AD)and Sarngadhara (14th century AD). It also provides therapies for the treatment of various vegetable and animal toxins like scorpion spider and snake venom. It has a whole science of toxicology called agada-tantra as one of the eight branches of traditional Ayurveda.\n\nThe Ayurvedic idea is that the organism adapts to the environment and its food climate etc. This principle of adaptation is called satyma. Through introducing small amounts of a food or medicine the organism can adapt to it and learn to resist it.\n\nAyurveda became increasingly symptom-based treating the symptoms of a disease rather than the root cause. However it is important to note that Ayurveda was originally a consciousness based system of health care. Its philosophy expressed in modern terms is to strengthen the immune system.\n\n\nQualities\nIt could be said that the simple essence of ayurveda is knowledge and awareness of the qualities of nature – called gurvadi gunah. By understanding the qualities inherent in the environment in foodstuffs in activities etc. one gains an appreciation of their effects on the individual constitution through the principle of similarities; i.e. that similarities cause increase while dissimilarities cause decrease. Thus hot qualities in the environment or diet will increase hot qualities in the body.\n\nThe gurvadi gunah are listed in Vagbhata's Ashtanga Hrdayam as:\n\nGuru (heavy) – laghu (light) \nManda (slow) – tikshna (quick sharp) \nHima (cold) – ushna (hot) \nSnigdha (unctuous) – ruksha (dry) \nSlakshna (smooth) – khara (rough) \nSandra (solid) – drava (liquid) \nMrdu (soft) – kathina (hard) \nSthira (stable) – cala (mobile) \nSuk |
What is the nature of fire. Is it energy or is it plasma? Fire is an energy-releasing plasma. I think it's more correct to call it a plasma because fire dies but the energy it liberated remains and the plasma--meaning the ionized gases--cease to exist once the fire is dead. |
How is that we can smell cold water but hot water the most? This has to do with what is called diffusion. Molecules in a gas or liquid medium spread out so that they are dispersed evenly throughout the whole medium. As molecules in the water move around some escape into the air. The moecules move slower when they are cold then when they are hot. In addition less molecules escape when the water is cold than when it is hot. Anyway when the cold water molecules escape into the air they diffuse out. When water is hot or boiling steam is formed. At this rate more water molecules escape and the ones that do move faster because they contain added energy from the heat. The cold water molecules are fewer and slower; therefore they take longer to diffuse to the air in and around your nose. The hot water molecules are more numerous and move more quickly; therefore they are quicker to diffuse to the air in and around your nose. I hope this helps. |
how can I make essential oils for myself? I grow my own medicinal herbs and would like to make essential oils from them. WEll essenntial oils can be extraced from plants in several methods. One is by crushing and choppping them. Then further you chose your method by the property of the essential oil. If it has a low boiling point you can easily fracion distill it. If it decomposes before boiling off you can use simple solvent extraction. Bo hify kits required!! |
why am i always tired after work everydays? I dont have energy to do thing. This is not normal.? You did not provide enough information. What sort of work do you do? Do you sleep at night? Use drugs or alcohol? Do you eat well? Any psychological problems? Stress at work or with household members? Are you in debt up to your eyeballs? But the answers to those and other questions are perhaps clues you can use to help you find out why you lack energy. Good luck to you. |
Following on to Rick's question how can I connect 2 monitors to my PC to have them working as one? Thus the screen would look like its split between the two screens... (like moving the mouse from one screen to the next) you can buy a wier connection that would attach to video card and than has two outputs but in this case you would just get a mirror emage on booth monitors good for presentation kind of thing ( kind of Cheap)\n\nif you whant to open say diffrent Internet Explorer windows with say two diffrent webpages one one each monitor and move the mouse inbetween booth you need to buy a speciall video card that would support that you would find video card that would support even more than two monitors ( kind of expensive) |

What do you know about SARDARJI JOKES? Sardarji Jokes\n\nSmart Sardarji:\nA Sardarji and an American are seated next to each other on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The American asks if he would like to play a fun game.\n\nThe Sardarji tired just wants to take a nap so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.\n\nThe American persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He says I ask you a question and if you don't know the answer you pay me five dollars and vice versa.\n\nAgain he declines and tries to get some sleep.\n\nThe American now agitated says Okay if you don't know the answer you pay me $5 and if I don't know the answer I will pay you $500.\n\nThis catches the Sardarji's attention and figuring there will be no end to this torment agrees to the game.\n\nThe American asks the first question: What's the distance from the earth to the moon?\n\nThe Sardarji doesn't say a word reaches into his wallet pulls out a $5.00 bill and hands it to the American.\n\nOkay says the American your turn.\n\nHe asks What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?\n\nThe American puzzled takes out his laptop computer & searches all his preferences........no answer.

I need critical analysis of Summa Theological prima pars Q 1 12&13.Aquinas gave 3ways of salvation list them? I need the answers urgently. What is Thomas Aquinas saying in the prima pars of Summa Theological questions 1 12 and 13. How are the three (Q 1 12 and 13) connected? And in what three(3) ways did Thomas Aquinas say that man can get salvation? In the first question St. Thomas addresses sacred scripture and whether it is science wisdom what is its subject whether it is a matter of argument etc. You can read it yourself to figure out his answers:\n\nhttp://www.newadvent.org/summa/100100.htm\n\nIn Q. 12 St. Thomas addresses how God an infinite being may be known by us finite creatures. This is a difficult matter and must be addressed article by article. \n\nhttp://www.newadvent.org/summa/101200.htm\n\nFinally in the 13th question St. Thomas deals with the names of God that it whether anything can properly be said of God. \n\nhttp://www.newadvent.org/summa/101300.htm\n\nRegarding salvation St. Thomas argues that man cannot attain happiness (a vision of God ala Q. 12) by his own action. However rectitude of will is necessary on the part of man for happiness. http://www.newadvent.org/summa/200507.htm\n\nI'm not sure however of the 3 ways St. Thomas said that man can obtain salvation. |

A Girl Is Staring At You. How Do You Approach Her? I am so clueless on this one. Given that people are so fickle what is the best way to handle approaching a person like that without screwing it up? smile at her - it may be she is shy - if she has been staring at you and she smiles back even a half smile but looks away it probably is because she's shy but she's more than likely interested - go for it - talk to her - try to catch her when she's not right by her friends like going to the restroom or something - she probably will talk to you a lot easier then |

baseball stitches? Baseball stitches that hold the two identical halves of a baseball's horsehide skin together permit the pitcher a better grip and also contributes to curve balls. As the curve ball spins the velocity of the skin relative to the air surrounding the ball on its path is different on opposite sides of the ball creating a slight vacuum altering the course of the ball. You can shape your hands and fingers to simulate the special curvature of a baseball skin and seems.\n\nThe baseball skin was invented in my home town of Stoughton Mass. where I believe they were going to erect a suitable monument at one time. At the baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown I saw only a small faded news article within a glass case filled with the oldest baseballs that even mentioned the invention. I'm glad you asked. |
What is the largest LCD Monitor I could use effectively using 3D Max? I was looking into the Viewsonic n2750w 27 HDTV that actually was on G4 TV as a good gaming monitor. I was under the understanding that too big can make computer graphics blurry. One of the most important factors that nobody else ever seems to care about (and it pisses me off to no end) is the RESOLUTION of the monitor. And I've never seen an LCD tv that has a resolution higher than 1280*1024 (an amazing performance achieved in the last millennium by over 99% of the common 17 CRT monitors and many 15 monitors too).\n\nThe 27 beast you mention makes no exception; its resolution is even lower: 1280*720. My Viewsonic VA1912w (19) already beats it (1440*900) and my (older) 19 CRT totally humiliates it (1600*1200). Even my 15 laptop screen has 1400*1050.\n\nWhat this means (having a HUGE monitor with a low resolution) is that you won't have more pixels on the screen (actually you'll probably have less) but the pixels will be larger.\nJust like zooming into a low-resolution image. It gets bigger but it doesn't look any better.\n\nNow 1280*1024 is plenty enough for TV (and HDTV) so that display is perfectly good for watching TV from a comfortable distance. And this is the key: it is a TV not a computer monitor! It's probably good enough for games too because games don't need very high resolutions. What matters for games is the low latency for fast and impressive action.\n\nHowever if you want to do serious graphics don't settle for anything less than 1600*1200. It's just not worth it. And you can find that resolution (or higher) in LCD monitors (not TVs!) starting from 20. |
i want to learn french language can any one tell how? I know english but i have a plan to learn french from internet for free because i din t have so much money to give tution. Unless you plan to go to Canada or France often choose Spanish. French is a beautiful language but there is no way to use it so you'll lose it quickly. Spanish is way more useful and easier to learn. (and many jobs will pay you more if you know it) Sorry this doesn't really answer your question. Maybe you could buy those French on tapes CDs/DVDs. |

Does A US Born Child have to be 21 for parents to be legal in the usa? parents are from canada.? Technically children born in the U.S. whose parents are not citizens of the U.S. are not automatically U.S. Citizens (contrary to popular myth). That being said even if the child is a U.S. citizen the parents do not automatically become U.S. citizens. They must go through the naturalization process like every other citizen-to-be must.\n\nThe 17th Amendment deals with the popular election of Senators not U.S. Citizenship. The 14th Amendmendment deals with citizenship the due process of law and the election of Representatives.\n\nI stand partially corrected however. There is currently an ongoing debate whether or not children of illegal immigrants born in the U.S. are automatically citizens. Since the parents have not vowed to relinquished their loyalty to their home country they are not subject to the jurisdiction thereof of the U.S. This will likely be heatedly debated for the next few years until the illegal immigration problem in this country is worked out.\n\nRegardless the Canadian parents still need to go through the naturalization process...they cannot automatically become citizens. |

Are there really ways to get gov't grants to help pay your bills or is that all a hoax? The Government has created a portal to help individuals who need benefits because of life events. Visit http://www.govbenefits.gov\n\nUse the drop down button\nDO YOU NEED BENEFITS BECAUSE OF A LIFE EVENT?\nChoose the life situation best applicable to you and then see if you qualify for the available government assistance.\n\nForget grant money - there's hardly any money for individuals. Go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) and Grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. But you'd be hard pressed to find any grant that would support individuals. |

Rocket Science? Hydrazine N2H4 and its derivatives are widely used as rocket fuels. The combustion of hydrazine with oxygen produces N2 (g) and H2O (g). When 1.90 grams of hydrazine is burned in a bomb calorimeter the temperature of the calorimeter rises by 4.20oC. The calorimeter contains 925.0 g of water and the bomb has a heat capacity of 887.0 J/K. What is the heat of reaction in KJ/mol for the combustion of one mole of hydrazine? I searched through my thermodynamics book for this so I hope you appreciate it.\nFirst you need a ballanced chemical equation.\n\n2N2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O + 2N2\n\nC = 887.0 J/K = 0.8870 kJ/ K\nn = 1 mol (since it's a 2 to 2 relation we can just say 1)\ndelta T = T = 4.20 ºC = 4.20 K\nq = ?\n\nq = CT/n = (0.8870 kJ/K * 4.20 K) / (1 mol) \n = 3.73 kJ/mol\n\n\nHope this helps! |

which is the best web site to announce our new company? There are plenty of PPC (pay per click) programs. The 2 biggest I think are Google & Yahoo!.\n\nAlso consider signing up for an affiliate program. These programs enable you to advertise on other's sites (your affiliates) and once a sale is made to you your affiliates & the program are paid a commission. We use ShareASale & pay out $25 to our affiliates once a sale is made & ShareASale takes another $5. $30 a sale is a pretty small price to pay for us. And I'm sure most programs like that allow you to set the commission rate (no point in your commission being half the price of a sale for you!)\n\nI listed a couple of handy sites relating to marketing promotion & advertising. I hope they’re helpful for you.\n\nLastly have you checked to make sure the name you're using is truly available? Prior to investing your time money & effort into a name it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available. \n\nThis entails searching the pending & registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then if clear you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. \n\nResearch is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available before opening before expansion before incorporation or before designing your logo. Similarities in sound appearance and meaning affect you too!\n\nThere are 16+ million trade names in use in the United States. Similar names matter if close in sound appearance or meaning. Similar names in related classes distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million) State Trademarks (500 000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million). |

why is 72 degrees the ideal temperture? 72 Degrees is the temperature at which our body heat is comfortably exchanged with our surrounding environment (air).\n\nIn cold weather like 30-40 degrees Farenheit notice that the heat from our bodies is lost very quickly leaving us feeling very cold very fast. The quickness of the exchange is relatively uncomfortable because our body cannot generate heat as quickly as it is losing it.\n\nIn warmer weather above 72 degrees F the opposite will happen. Our bodies generate the same amount of heat but we can't cool off fast enough. That's why we start to sweat (a body cooling method) pant like dogs and start looking for shade and cool showers.. We are trying to get rid of that extra heat. \n\nSo 72 is the ideal temp at which our bodies are in balance with our environment. Not too hot but not too cold either. |

In a neural net computer what is networked? A neural network computer has a network of something what are the things that are networked? Are they individual processors? Some other form of logic? Network of networks. At the lowest level are the actual neurons - implemented in models - which form an interconnected decision-making matrix. It's more a reflection of logic connections than specifying physical components. It's not a network of computers or processors. It is a network of neurons. These neurons (the net) may indeed be spread out over the network or amongst CPUs or servers or workstations but that's merely an implementation description not how they work. |
Is media biased? Is there more bias toward liberal or conservative views? media is business above everything else. one should understand this before blindly taking in everything that is put forth. Most media organizations have inclinations towards certain political parties and corporate clients. While it is important to keep up ethics it isnt always easy to do so. the media industry just like any other industry is pressurised for various issues by various sources. For example a newspaper might receive huge ad revenue from say a car manufacturer. If that car company launches a new product the newspaper will be pressurised to cover the event and give it a positive slant though that is not exactly what the newspaper's editorial team would want to do if they werent pressurised into doing so by marketing and sales department. Likewise a channel which receives majority of its funding from a political party either directly of indirectly would put forth stories only in favor of that particular party. Though the stories might appear not appear to be taking stands subtly and subconsciously the language used in the script would very discreetly influence the audience and fashion a change in the attitude of the end viewer. This is how we develop certain views about certain issues. This not only applies to an individual but also to the society at large. Continuous exposure to similar content that puts forth sterotypical views about certain issues cause the end receiver to develop the same views as most forms of media are assertive and suggestive rather than interactive. \n\nSo the question whether the media is biased is a very broad. It is a business at the end of the day and it is how you look at it and how you take it. If you can read between lines and assess what is shown on screen it isnt biased. But if you cant to do it yes it is biased. I would say the media business is a pure play of human psychology. While there isnt anything that is false that is being put forth one should understand that it isnt entirely true either. So it all depends on how you look at it and whether you allow the businessmen to play with your weakenesses. |

Do you think we will be invaded by ailens? There are some theories (panspermia etc) that the earth is under constant bombardment by biological material from outer space that causes illnesses etc. Some claim that life on the earth was even brought to the earth from someplace else in the cosmos. \n\nBut you are probably not referring to this. You are thinking about the romantic visions one gets from science fiction books and movies. At this time our understanding of physics precludes easy or possibly any visitation of the earth by intelligent alien beings travelling here in space craft. We do not yet find evidence for any other life especially intelligent advanced life in our solar system. The other stars are just too far away for some other alien civilization to go to the effort to come here. |

Star Wars Question: What would have happened if.....? Instead of Yoda fighting Sidious and Obi Wan fighting Anakin.....if they reversed and Obi Wan went to fight Sidious and Yoda battled Anakin..... Clearly Sidious takes out Obi Wan (he's good...but not ready for the emperor was he). Anakin certainly is no match for Yoda either and I think he would be to twisted for even Yoda to bring him back by now. \n\nSidious must now take on a new apprentice but he still succeeds in creating the Empire although weaker without the power of Vader to help him. Obi Wan isn't able to deliver Luke or watch over him or influence him to join the rebellion. Yoda still has him transported to his family and after Owen and Veru are slain he joins the Academy to become a gifted pilot in the rebellion. \n\nHan is never employed by Ben to fly to Alderan and Leia is executed by General Tarken as planned prior to the rescue. \n\nR2D2's plans never make it to the rebellion and they are ultimately destroyed. Luke is captured by the Emperor once he realizes someone that strong in the force exists. Luke without the influence of Ben and Yoda is easily converted and trained in the Dark Side from scratch (probably killing off the interim apprentice). \n\nThe Sith rule for 1000 years. |

Also the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati is offering a grant for first time home buyers. Many bank in Ohio have access to this money. It's called Welcome Home Grant.

Where can I buy insent expresso powder? INSTANT ESPRESSO POWDER: Coffee compliments the flavor of chocolate. Instant espresso powder can be found in Italian delicatessens and many supermarkets. The most common brand is Medaglia d'Oro. It's a little hard to find but I found a reliable mail order source. However brands from major American companies are coming onto the market in reaction to the newfound love for real coffee. If you wish you can substitute regular instant coffee but it isn't nearly as intensely flavored. |
WHO IS ART BELL? Why does he exist? Does he have a brain (even a small one?)? Art bell is no one...\nWho told you he exist?\nDude how can a person who does not exist have a brain?\n\n\nI hate art bell you know why... Bcoz of his HATE LETTER TO THE FILIPINOS... Here read...\n\n-------------------------\n\nFilipinos.....*make me puke* (Art Bell)\n\nAs we've all come to notice in the past few decades Filipinos have begun to infest the United States like some sort of disease. Their extensive involvement in the U.S. Armed Forces is proof of the trashy kind of qualities all filipinos tend to exhibit on a regular basis. You can see this clearly by studying the attitudes and cultural Icons of most Filipino Americans.\n\nOrigins of Pinoys/Pinays: \n\nAre they really asian? Well we've come to accept the fact the filipinos come from a part of the world known as South East Asia. But the term Asia is used in the wrong way. You may notice that contemporary Filipino Americans try very hard to associate themselves with groups that we know as Asian. I cannot count the number of times I have seen a 'Third World' Filipino try to connect themselves to the chinese or Japanese people. There is no connection and here's why. The Philippines is a Third World country. Nothing respectable has EVER been created by Filipino people during our entire human history. Young filipino men in America have become obsessed with import racing. They have an enormously perverted affection for Japanese cars. It's a common phenomenon. In their minds these Filipinos somehow believe that they are asian and that it somehow connects them to Japanese people and japanese cars. They often take credit for the ingenuity of Japanese people and say how it's an Asian thing. This term...Asian thing derived directly from African American slang black thang. It's a black thang. It's an asian thang. \n\nYou can see the connection. It's even funnier that in Japan Filipinos are heavily discriminated against. The only filipinos that can live successfully in Japan are the filipino prostitutes. But that's the case for most Filipino people no matter where they live in th e world. Now we've come down to this fact...and it is a fact. \n\nNothing in Filipino Culture can be seen as Asian.\n\nThey have no architectural artistic or cultural influence which is in ANY way asian. Thinking of the great countries in Asia such as Japan Korea and China there is no way you can possibly connect the Philippine Islands. This assault by filipino americans to connect themselves with the great peoples of North East Asia is foul and disgusting. Try visiting a young filipino's web site too. \n\nYou'll see something called the Asian IRC Ring. It has to do with the chatrooms. The most horrible thing about this is that these TRASHY people are trying to associate themselves with Asia again!! People in Asia don't act like this at all. What we are seeing here is the natural Filipino in its element with full access to technology and this is how they act! You will consistently see this behavior over and over again. \n\nAnother interest ing thing is that these thirdworld people also frequent RC chatrooms such as #chinese #japan and #asian. They must believe that they are somehow related racially or culturally to North Asians. But it's completely WRONG! There might have been some distant contact With China and even less with Japan during World War II but these people are actually more closely related to african americans and Mexican americans. \n\nDo the parents of these young filipinos know what's going on? Would they accept this? I believe that they would and do. This is the natural Trash element in filipinos manifesting itself. Nothing good has ever come from Philippines and I don't believe anything good ever will. \n\nRecognizing your Roots (A Message to Filipinos). To all filipino people: \nPleas |

How do you calculate molar mass of liquid? I would like to know what i need to know and how to calculate this value. I would like a formula that would be nice or any other help. There are many ways to go about this problem. What do you know about the liquid?\n\nIf you don't know the molecular formula then experimentally you need to determine the moles of the liquid and the mass of the liquid.\n\nThe mass is easy you can either weigh the liquid or you can measure it's volume and if you know the density you can calculate the mass. Weighing is the more accurate method.\n\nCalculating the moles of a liquid. There are many different types of experiments to do that... but the experiment that you do depends on the type of compound you have.\n\nSorry but this question is a little vague and I'd need to know specifics to help you any more. |
what is milk thistle for? Milk thistle is used to treat inflammatory liver ailments especially chronic illnesses such as hepatitis and cirrhosis. Gallbladder ailments and related digestive symptoms varicose and spider veins problems in the legs and jaundice are helped by milk thistle treatment as well. A silymarin injection is an antidote to poisoning from the death cap mushroom amanita.\n\nTherapeutic Effect\n The active ingredient in milk thistle seeds is silymarin a combination of three different flavonoids that supports the walls of liver cells preventing poisons from penetrating them. It also stimulates the regeneration of these cells. Bitter principles and amino acids help support the entire digestive system.\n\nSilymarin as a liver tonic\n People with acute liver problems should follow a six-week treatment with tea made from milk thistle seeds (below in healing tea mixtures) several times a year. This tea treatment program is often recommended for people with liver damage caused by excess alcohol intake and cirrhosis.\n\nHow silymarin works\n Silymarin helps prevent liver poisoning in two ways. It changes the liver cell walls in such a way that it is very difficult for poisons such as cabon tetrachloride to penetrate the walls. Silymarin also stimulates cell division so that new liver cells will grow continually.\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nMethods of Administration\nTea\n For poor digestion drink this tea 30 min. before meals. To support blood vessel integrity for the treatment of spider or varicose veins drink 2-3 cups of tea throughout the day.\nPour 1 cup of boiling water over 2 tsps. of crushed seeds. Steep 10-15 min. and strain. There is no time limit on treatment with this tea; its use may be ongoing. \n Peppermint increases the effectiveness of milk thistle tea and improves its taste. When you make the tea add 1 tbsp. of peppermint leaves to the mixture.\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nTincture\n For gallstones or other gallbladder concerns take 20-30 drops up to 3 times daily until the condition improves. To prepare the tincture mix ¼ cup of crushed seeds with 1¼ cups of rum in a clean glass jar. Cover tightly and shake well. Let stand for 4-6 weeks shaking every few days. Strain out the seeds and bottle the liquid. \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nNutritional Supplement\n To support good liver function eat 1 tbsp. of ground seeds daily. In a coffee grinder or spice mill grind seeds to add to hot cereals muffins rice dishes and other whole-grain meals. \n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nMedicinal Uses\nTincture for intensive treatment\n Silymarin is only partly water soluble so for an intensive treatment to protect and regenerate liver cells you should also use a tincture made from milk thistle seeds to increase the effect of the tea. Put 10 drops of the tincture into 1 cup of milk thistle tea. This tincture can also be purchased in health food stores. Caution: Because of its alcohol content never use the tincture if you are suffering from acute liver inflammation or alcoholism.\n\nLeaf tea for aiding digestion\n You can also make therapeutic teas from the leaves of the milk thistle. They do not contain silymarin but they have an overall positive effect on the liver and gallbladder and a tea made with them is valuable for improving digestion and for easing mild digestive complaints. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over 1½ tsp. of finely chopped leaves. Steep for 5-10 min. and then strain. Drink 2-3 glasses per day.\n\nCompresses for varicose veins\n The external application of the tea in a compress can help varicose veins and open leg sores. Make the tea; cool. Soak a cloth in the cooled tea and apply as a damp compress |

How can i control my sleep? I like to sleep a lot. Sometimes i sleep for 10+ hours in a day. Some people say its not healthy. Is there any way for me to control my sleep? Ok without getting a full history beyond I sleep 10+ hours a day there may or may not be a health issue here. Although the appropriate amount of sleep is widely accepted to be an AVERAGE of about 8 hours; there are clearly individual differences among people in what their sleep need is.\n\nBeyond the individual differences there are also age related need... babies will sleep much of the day where as the elderly will need a bit less than the average adult. Children and teens will need a bit more than the average adult (although teens will often not get it due to poor sleep habits).\n\nNow all that being said you may indeed have a sleep disorder with 10+ hours of sleep. That is quite a bit for someone who typed at least 3 sentences with proper grammer and syntax. There are some non-respiratory (the most common sleep disorder is Obstructive Sleep Apnea) that can cause people to sleep all the time and teen years is when they tend to show up. Narcolepsy and Klein Levens comes to mind but they are rather rare and the cataplexy (sudden loss of muscle tone resulting in collapse) that is associated with narcolepsy isn't something that is easily overlooked. \n\nIf you find that you snore when you sleep then obstructive sleep apnea is a possibility; indicating that you may be breathing poorly (or not at all) through the night disrupting your sleep and requiring you to stay in bed tring to catch up longer. When apneics wake up hundreds of times a night to breath they don't actually remember it generally.\n\nAdditionally poor sleep hygeine can add to the amount of sleep you end up trying to get. If you have a poor sleep schedule (changing get up and go to bed times often) work out close to bedtime drink caffeine late have TV or radio on at bedtime read in bed etc... then you may not be getting very good sleep and therefore needing more sleep.\n\nNOW with all those possiblilities thrown out there are still more I haven't mentioned. The best thing to do is seek out a sleep disorders center in your area (they are everywhere) and get a referal from your primary care physician and have a sleep study done to determine if indeed you have a problem that may be a health risk to you. These are easy tests really you will come into a lab before bed they will attach a couple dozen wires to you with a little glue and you'll sleep overnight while being monitored if narcolepsy is suspected then you may do some nap studies through the day also. When its all done a sleep specialist will review the results with you determining if you do or do not have a sleep disorder. \n\nGood Luck |

Marine Corps Expeditionay Medal or Navy Expeditionary Medal? I was entitled to the MCEM in 1962 and in 1997 asked for it and was sent the NEM. I then read somewhere the Navy ran out of MCEM and was issuing NEM in place. What is going on has anybody had this experience? I haven't had this experience myself but I located a couple of links. The first is from a 1953 document stating that only NEMs will be awarded after the existing supply of MCEMs is exhausted.\n\nHowever I have found notes here and there that lead me to believe that it is has been issued in recent years.\n\nI recommend that you send an email to the address in the second link. |

Why do so many people use AIM?? It's the worst messenger in my opinion but is there something i'm not seein? Why do you guys use it? Probably 95% of AIM users are there by default - they signed up for internet via AOL and AOL pushes its OWN programs almost as bad as Microsoft does theirs.\n\nI'd speculate that 60%?? of MSN users use MSN simply because it comes with Windows.\n\nThose with enough gumption to get out and actually SEARCH for an IM program and perhaps COMPARE different ones probably usually end up with YahooMessenger - the BEST in my view. \n(Maybe 5-10% of YM users are there due to SBCGlobal/Yahoo signup - others by CHOICE).\n\nBut.... perhaps ONE good reason to use AIM might be simply if all your friends are on AIM - though you can still go to something like www.trillian.cc or Gaim which can access most IM programs including AIM all at once. |

Do you think God exists?? or are we just assuming there is God somewhere in the universe watching us??!!? Please give ur opinions with relevant reasons to support urselves.. ur experiences with God are also welcome.. Thanks!! =) Of course there is some question of Why are we here? and the Meaning of life? I believe strongly in God. I believe he sent his son down to earth to die for my sins your sins and everyone sins. Jesus bridges the gap between God and us that was separated when Adam and Eve first turn their backs on him in the Garden of Eden. Sacrificing something pure like a lamb then was the gap filled. But then Jesus came a pure being God’s only son he was like the lamb pure and without sin sacrificed for our sins to fill the gap between God and us. Believing in Jesus and accepting him into our lives fill that gap to God and we have access to eternal life. \n\nGod is so significant in my life. My mother was taken from me at 12 years old by ovarian cancer. I didn’t think God cared. Later I experienced trials of my faith. I grew to learn that there is a purpose to everything and that everything happens for a reason. Everything happens for the best. \n\nOne certain case I believe would be that an angel of the Lord confronted me. I had had some troubles at home and I stormed off to my school. I sat there on the swing sets looking down at the ground. I noticed the school was completely empty. I cannot recall any sound of the highway that could be heard very clearly near by. Then I noticed a young woman with blonde hair. She was pushing a baby in a stroller. She had been walking around the track and soon came to the playground which I had been the whole time. She slowly approached and asked if I was all right. Of course I said yes trying to shrug her off. She asked me if I knew about Jesus. I thought that she saw it was a perfect opportunity to preach about Jesus and God. I already knew all that stuff I told her I knew him and told her my father is involved with the church. She smiled and said that that was nice. She then said something I will never forget. She said with a smile on her face “Alright just know that He loves you and knows that you are upset.” I smiled thinking that she was being nice. She started walking away and she said “Nice talking to you Michael.” She walked away towards the surrounding school buildings. I then realized I never mentioned my name. I didn’t even know her. In a small community I had never seen her before. I then got on my bike and rode to the building to talk again with her. She had gone past the building very shortly before I arrived there on my bike. I turned the corner and she wasn’t there. It was physically impossible to get out of the school that fast especially with a baby. I was then filled with a great sense of power and strength. It was a great feeling. I rode my bike home faster than ever. I was crying all the way home.\n\nI have told this story to only a few people. I never expected people to believe me; I could care less if they didn’t. I believe what happened. I was there. That helped incidence helped me so much. I felt much better after that. Today I still have problems. I am human. But I can always turn to Jesus for help. I believe in him by Faith and Faith alone. That is all you need to attain salvation! Faith.\n\nI hope you understand to that God loves you. \n God Bless You!\n Michael DeCourcy |
How were chopsticks discovered? Imagine you're a caveman with no tools to eat food. Do you choose two sticks as your food-eating tool? How the heck did that happen? This was on discovery channel incidentally when I chanced upon your question.\n\nIn the past as cavemen the Chinese people had discovered rice for quite a while using various ways to cook rice or meat such as hollow bamboo mud and leaves.\nWhen it was hot they probably used sticks: two sticks like a pair of tongs to hold the packet or the bamboo together.\nSlowly it evolved from sticks to wood and as the Chinese flourished into a civilisation it was decorated with laquer made from jade carved from Ivory and it's uses increased from just being a tool to pick up food to being used in quick cooking like stir-frying to picking scraps of food off the plates to even cutting chunks of food at the table or in the wok through a skillful manipulation of the fingers and wrists.\nThis ubiquitous tool spread to Korea Japan and to many parts of Asia where the Chinese migrated and brought their culture along with them. |

On a first date with a friend what do i say to sweep her off her feet? We are going out to lunch but i really want to try to start a realationship with her. We have been friends for 3 years. I just want good things to happen. It's not much what you say as all the other little things you must do on the date. Like being on time maybe greeting her with a quick light peck on the cheek pulling out her chair open doors...you know all the gentlemanly things. As for conversation keep it light funny interesting. And although you may want to start a relationship with her on your first real date you probably shouldn't bring that up as yet. Wait until you've been on at least 3 dates then broach the subject. By then you'll know if she's also romantically interested in you or if only as a friend. |
