text: |Eye black grease has been around since the earlier 20th century. The idea behind the grease, which was originally derived from burning cork, came from the desire of baseball and football players to reduce glare from the sun when on the playing field. Since its introduction to sports, the application of eye black amongst outdoor athletes at all levels has become commonplace, not only for its glare-reducing capabilities but also for its resemblance to primitive war paint

I frequently microwave my food since I prefer not to spend more than 30 minutes for food prep and eating, total.

The problem is that different nutrients react in different ways: some do worse with more heat, some with more contact with water, some the length of time is less important than the absolute temperature (or vice versa), cooking with fat might help or hinder... Also the reason why these studies often contradict each other is, I assume, that individual cooking methods are highly subjective. It doesn't matter that baking is better than boiling, if a food that you'd boil for 5 minutes you'd blast in the oven for an hour before eating it.
That said this is one of the best studies (in that it actually tests a variety of methods and foods). It finds that: "griddling, microwave cooking, and baking alternately produce the lowest losses, while pressure-cooking and boiling lead to the greatest losses; frying occupies an intermediate position" also "green bean, celery, and carrot" became more nutritious after all methods, whereas most vegetables became less.
This (2) study suggests that microwaving is often better than conventional methods for "thiamin, riboflavin, pyridoxine, folacin, and ascorbic acid" using low power. This (3) review simply reports that the differences are minimal.

I don't have a definitive answer, but out of caution due to the unknown I limit the use of the microwave whenever possible. It isn't that hard to warm up food on the stove, and life still feels relatively easy. :-P
Here's an intriguing article against microwave use that should at least give one pause: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0ISW/is_2001_June/ai_75178712/

My general understanding is that the microwave doesn't actually change the nutritional content or damage the nutrients themselves, but it destroys valuable enzymes that contribute to digestion and general gut health. What was once living is now dead.
If you're going to do it, then at least use a ceramic or glass container and not a plastic one!

From what I've read, microwaving actually preserves the nutrients in vegetables better than any other method. Steaming and sauteeing are next best. Boiling is the worst (since you're just making vitamin water in that case) but blanching (a boiling-based method) is effective at preserving nutrients.
I wish I could find a good study on this. This seems like something where the research should be easy and definitive. Just prepare some vegetables using various methods then analyze the nutrient content. Unfortunately, the information I've seen on this has been lacking citiations and from the usual nutritional 'experts' that we've learned to ignore...
Regarding foods other than vegetables, I have no clue!

Guess my paleo sisters could not have even imagined such craziness. why even bother with it...so they can find in 25 years what it really was doing to our food. Take some time and prepare your food with a flame from the gas stove :) Part of living is enjoying...being in joy.

text: This paper studies gender differences in the extent to which social preferences affect workers' shirking decisions. Using exogenous variation in work absence induced by a randomized field experiment that increased treated workers' absence, we find that also nontreated workers increased their absence as a response. Furthermore, we find that male workers react more strongly to decreased monitoring, but no significant gender difference in the extent to which workers are influenced by peers. However, our results suggest significant heterogeneity in the degree of influence that male and female workers exert on each other: conditional on the potential exposure to same-sex co-workers, men are only affected by their male peers, and women are only affected by their female peers.

(Click on the image for Goodreads page)
When this book started, I had a feeling that it would be boring. It was just like all the other books I've read. Friend dies or kills himself, leaves something behind so someone could understand. Blah blah…
In this book, Hayden committed suicide and left a playlist behind for his best friend Sam with a note that 'Listen, you'll understand'
See, totally cliché. I've read All the Bright places, TFIOS, Thirteen reasons why, The last time we say goodbye and even though I loved most of these books, it does get a little common. Every book has death, friendship, self-discovery and stuff.
I know it's a really common topic to write about but it does get a little boring after time. What I liked about this book was, the geeky- crazy stuff. I loved the playlist. All the songs were really good. I could understand Sam and how he was feeling.
But then there wasn't much to understand. This book didn't have much of a story, some characters were good, some not so much. The writing wasn't very beautiful or touching either.
So it was an okay kind of book. I don't think I'll re-read it or even recommend it to someone unless someone is just looking for a book with music recommendations. Because that's the only thing I liked about this.
This book does teach you how little misunderstandings, or faults of a few people destroy the life of someone. But that's something we already know.
2 stars. ( And only for the music)

Statement on US-China Climate Ratification from the President of the UN General Assembly, H.E. Mogens Lykketoft
New York, 3 September 2016 – 'I am pleased to hear this very good news coming out of Hangzhou just before the opening of the G20-meeting: The Presidents of China and United States – the two major economies and CO2-emitters – have announced their ratification of the Paris Climate Agreement.
During my meetings with Chinese leaders in Beijing last October I got very strong support for urgent Climate Action. China's own ambitious action plan is now rolling with announcement of guidelines for establishing a Green Financial System and a goal for green projects of US$600 billion each year.
The China-US ratification and the great Chinese initiatives put useful pressure on those UN-members that have not yet ratified or made their own national action plans.

Quilts are a natural for decorating any country-styled room, and the kitchen is no exception. Quilted wall hangings are easy to make, even if you've never done much sewing or crafting. Although quilts made from cut and pieced fabric squares and shapes are certainly beautiful, starting with a printed fabric panel is usually easier for beginners. Most fabric and craft stores carry a wide variety of printed fabric panels, many of which are perfect for making quilted wall hangings. You'll need a fabric panel that blends well with your kitchen décor, as well as fabric to use as the quilt backing, a piece of batting the same size as your fabric panel, and a needle and quilting thread. Or, you can plan on doing your quilting using a sewing machine, to make the work go quicker. Start by placing your printed fabric panel face down on the work table. Then, place the piece of batting on top. Finally, place the piece of backing material face up on top of the batting. Pin to hold the pieces together then flip the entire "fabric sandwich" over. Using a sewing machine or a needle and thread, sew through all the layers, creating the desired quilting pattern. You can add as little or as much quilting as you'd like to create the look you prefer. When finished, sew a strip of fabric around the outside of the quilted piece to cover the raw edges, add loops for hanging, and display on the kitchen wall.
This seashell crafts idea is best suited for tiny seashells. Purchase some simple, plain wine tags and hot glue a few small augers, horse conches or scallops to the ring. These add a detailed touch to your back-yard beach party and are useful in keeping owners united with their proper wine glasses.

When choosing the outfit for the time out doll you can be creative as you like. The cotton mittens are used for the hands. You will also need to make sure you either have a long sleeved top or add a skivvy under the outfit to cover the arms especially when making a girl doll. You need to always have some sort of hat on the doll as there is no face because they stand in a corner. Be creative.

Paint the keyhole black and let dry. Outline with gel pen.

Another great wood project idea is building a letter holder. You can teach your child about postage stamps during the process. It's a quick and easy project to do. If you want to customize the letter holder let your child select their own choice of paint to add color to the piece. A fun and easy outdoor wood project is building a butterfly house. If you have a decent size backyard creating a structure that will attract beautiful monarch butterflies will amaze your child.
Decorative tape can be used for card making projects. They add instant style and theme to plain folded cardboard. Add a personalized message and send it to a dear family member or friend.

A technology that helps to digitally display the readings on a medium such as a digital watch, computer,calculator, television is known as liquid crystal display orLCD. In this system liquid crystal film is enclosed between two layers of glass. The Liquid crystal used in these display are mainly known for changing its light modulating properties when shown to small electric currents. LCD devices can be operated with two ways such as electricity operated or battery operated. These screens have the ability of showingrandom images in a variation of colors. Using a single LCD screen is not sufficient in some cases; anoperatorwants a complete LCD module comprehensive with auxiliary components.
Uses of LCD technology
These devices are used where picturesare needed to be shownand it can benefit from the use of an LCD screen. There are some places where you can find modules arebeing used.
These modules are mainly used in Hand-held electronics. LCDs can be bringing into being in a countless of hand-held devices such as portable computers,mobile phones,and tabletsand many more devices. There uses can also be seenin digital compasses andin digital wrist watches. These devices can reducepictures in full-color and with flawlessclearness. For these reasons only they are preferred in such devices.
Since LCD panels produce no light of their own, they require external light to produce a visible image. In a "trans-missive" type of LCD, this light is provided at the back of the glass "stack" and is called the backlight. While passive-matrix displays are usually not backlit (e.g. calculators, wristwatches), active-matrix displays almost always are.
