The Deceitful Promises Of Herbal Remedies Biology Essay
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
For centuries people have used herbal remedies as a treatment for ailments and diseases. As technology became more advanced, it became customary for people to turn to prescription drugs. However, over the last few decades natural homeopathic treatments have become more sought after. Many believe this is in conjunction from consumers buying more ecofriendly products to preserve our environment. Common beliefs are that natural medicines are safer and have fewer risks involved. It's hard to imagine a natural product as being unsafe and even deadly. Herbal remedies are not regulated in any way which makes it much easier for manufacturers to falsely describe their products. These natural medicines are not scientifically researched before being sold to consumers.
By becoming more health aware Americans, many of us have turned to natural treatments in an effort to create healthy minds and bodies. However, few Americans do enough adequate research in order to find the truth of how well our health treatments, natural or not, really are the best methods of treatments available. Many people believe these natural products have been tested for safety and effectiveness. According to the American College of Rheumatology, many herbal remedies that are being sold on the U.S. market are extremely unsafe. Many of these products have active ingredients that are close to the ones found in prescription drugs. It is also very common to find toxic metals to be hidden within these medicines. What is even more disturbing about the issue is that many of these ingredients are not even listed on the label. For many people who have high blood pressure and heart conditions, these can create fatal side effects. Some examples of these natural remedies are ginger and willow bark extract which can relieve pain; however, they can create inflammation in the intestines and stomach which can lead to an interference with the clotting properties of the blood and possible fluid retention (Marcus 2008).
Traditional herbal remedies have been known to cause many harmful side effects such as liver disease, slowed motor functions, unconsciousness, comatose, cardiac arrest, kidney failure, and sometimes even death (Kimpel 2000). A natural remedy that relieves pain and inflammation known as Chinese Thunder God Vine can weaken the immune system and has been known to cause osteoporosis (Marcus 2008). In fact, very few herbs are considered unsafe unless they are maintained in small amounts such as nutmeg which is used widely for its cooking properties. In large quantities, nutmeg can actually cause liver failure and death (Piazza 2008).
Although some herbs can be very harmful, some herbs are perfectly safe. Peppermint leaf can help with nausea, vomiting, and flatulence. Ginger root is also widely used to stop nausea and vomiting. Both are commonly used for women during pregnancy. Oats are rich in calcium and magnesium which helps relieve anxiety, restlessness, and irritated skin from insect bites and dry skin (American Pregnancy Assoc. 2007). Some other examples of safe herbs are garlic, cumin, parsley, and basil. Many of these safe herbs have been research as to the side effects that could result from ordinary cooking methods. Common herbs that can be bought through the local groceries store are all considered safe for human consumption in small quantities to ensure safety to American consumers.
Many herbal remedies are falsely advertised and labeled. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, many natural remedies contain prescription drugs and toxic metals that can harm consumers. Almost all of these are listed as "all natural" and do not list these extra ingredients on the labels (FDA 2010). One weight loss supplement that was studied was found to have a stimulant drug that was pulled from the U.S. market in 1997 because it was known to cause serious heart valve damage (FDA 2010). It also contained other ingredients that were known to cause heart conditions, heart attack, strokes, and many other cardiovascular conditions (FDA 2010). A 37 year old woman died from taking a diet tea over the course of several months. The tea contained laxatives and diuretics, increases urination, ingredients which can deplete potassium in the body. Potassium helps the heart to remain regular heartbeats. The label of this product did not state dosage limits nor warnings for prolonged use (Kimpel 2000). According to the Interactive Media Lab at the University of Florida, "the Good House Keeping Institute…compared six widely available St. John's wort supplement capsules and four liquid extracts. The laboratory reported a "startling lack of consistency in the quantity of hypericin." (Kimpel 2000). They also found St. John's wort acts as a sedative rather than an alert aid as advertised (Kimpel 2000). Also, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest, scientists lead a 20 year study on the benefits of ginseng. At the end of the study, it was found that ginseng had no known substantial health benefits (Kimpel 2000). When it comes to herbal remedies, it is easy to see that many side effects can result from taking these medicines. Prescription drugs can also cause side effects; however, most physicians are trained in the possible side effects, conditions that can be caused by long term usage, and what physical conditions may increase the risk of side effects for their patients. Each prescription drug that is available to the public is researched by the United States Food and Drug Administration. The FDA insures that all prescriptions are safe and effective as long as they are administered following the given directions. When prescriptions are found to be unsafe after laboratory testing, they are pulled off the market and cannot be given to patients. Unlike prescription drugs, herbal remedies are not regulated by a government organization. In fact, these products are not regulated at all. Consumers have no way of knowing what ingredients are actually in the herbal remedies.
Although herbal remedies are unsafe and unregulated, they are however more cost efficient compared to prescription drugs. The average price for prescription drug for seniors over the age of 65 was $72.94 in 2010 (AFSCME). Senior citizens account for nearly 13% of the population; however, they consume 34% of all prescription drugs each year (AFSME). Senior citizens are finding it harder to buy their medications due to the economic conditions. The annual amount that senior citizens spent on drugs in 1992 was an average of 559. By 2000, the annual amount had risen to 1,200. For senior citizens, these prescriptions are necessary to alleviate medical conditions and relieve pain. 80% of people over the age of 65 take at least one prescription drug each year (AFSCME).
United States Food and Drug Administration ensure that prescription drugs are safe by providing warning labels to ensure each patient is aware of possible side effects, listed ingredients that are active in the medicine, researching and clinical trials on all prescriptions to ensure safety and effectiveness, and to ensure the best dosage requirements for all users. Herbal remedies can be used safely when in moderation, but until more research is done to determine what herbs are safe. If more research could be gathered to show the possible side effects and the physical conditions that should be watched when taking certain natural medicines, then herbal remedies might become safer for consumers to use. Also, herbal remedies need to be regulated by some government administration to set laws and stipulations on the warning labels, ingredients listed on each bottle, and the proper amount of each ingredient in each bottle of natural medicines that are sold in the U.S. market. By creating more regulations and gathering proper research herbal remedies may one day become safer and more effective than prescription drugs.

Tuesday Lunch April 12th, 2016 Talk: Illuminating the First X-ray sources with Low Frequency Radio Observations.
Title: Illuminating the First X-ray sources with Low Frequency Radio Observations.
Aaron Ewall-Wice
April 12th, 2016
Observations of the 21 cm power spectrum at high redshift will allow us to characterize the sources that heated the intergalactic medium including the first stellar mass black holes and hot interstellar medium. Most current power spectrum experiments are targeting reionization; however, the best constraints on heating will come from redshifts higher than those of the reionization epoch.
I present forecasts on our ability to determine the astrophysics of X-ray heating from power spectrum measurements along with results from a recent observational campaign on the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) carried out to explore the systematics present at higher redshift and lower frequencies (75-112 MHz, corresponding to the redshifts between 18 and 12). We find that while next generation experiments will be sensitive enough to deliver 10% or better constraints on the spectral properties and X-ray efficiencies of the first galaxies, sub-percent spectral structure in the MWA data, that are challenging to calibrate, prevent us, so far, from reaching our design sensitivity. I describe the design and calibration features in future experiments such as the Hydrogen Epoch of Reionization Array (HERA) that will allow us to obtain precision measurements of X-ray heating in the coming decade.
Feb 24 Silas Peirce Lecture: Following the Water on Mars
Join Bethany Elhmann, Assistant Professor of Planetary Science at California Institute of Technology, as she presents the first annual College of Arts & Sciences Silas Peirce Lecture.
The Curiosity rover represents the latest chapter in NASA's exploration of Mars. It was designed to assess whether Mars ever had an environment able to support small life forms called microbes. The rover's onboard laboratory is studying the rocks and soil it encounters to search for the chemical building blocks of life on Mars, revealing what the Martian environment was like in the past. Professor Ehlmann, a member of the intrepid rover's science team, will describe why Curiosity was sent to Mars and what it has found since landing 18 months ago.

Studying the Venusian Atmosphere on a Surface-to-Air Missile
On Nov. 26, 2013, The Venus Spectral Rocket Experiment (VeSpR) launched successfully from White Sands Missile Range. VeSpR is a sounding rocket experiment designed to study the ultraviolet light emitted in the upper atmosphere of Venus, led by principal investigator and BU Astronomy Professor John Clarke. VeSpR was loaded into a two-stage rocket, consisting of a Black Brant model Mk1 sounding rocket and a modified Terrier surface-to-air missile. Please see the NASA press release for more details:
Pictured below is the VeSpR launch and subsequent retrieval at White Sands.

As members of the MAVEN Science Team, BU Astronomy professors John Clarke, Michael Mendillo, Paul Withers and postdoc Majd Matta attended the launch. MAVEN will study the upper atmosphere of Mars, providing clues as to how the Red Planet lost volatile elements throughout its evolution.
11/19 Lunch Talk: Protoplanetary Disks
Spatial Variation of Dust Evolution in Protoplanetary Disks
Dr. Melissa McClure
University of Michigan
12:30 pm
November 19, 2013
Within circumstellar disks, the properties of the dust dictate the structure of the disk, and the variation in these properties as a function of vertical height and radius can be used to probe dynamical processes such as settling, turbulence, and radial transport. These processes affect the ability to form a proto-planet at a given disk location, while the variety of dust species at each location impacts the final composition of planets formed there. By comparing data from spectroscopic programs using Magellan, Spitzer, and Herschel with physical models of irradiated accretion disks, I aim to characterize the spatial variations in mineralogy, grain size, and dust/gas mass ratio within circumstellar disks and identify how early they occur.
My work thus far finds that even in young star-forming regions (like Ophiuchus at ~ 0.8-1 Myr), disks show signs of significant dust processing and settling. However, grains in the innermost ~0.2 AU may be prevented from growing beyond several microns in disks with high mass accretion, likely a sign of turbulent fragmentation due to viscous dissipation through the midplane. Based on the large solid angle required to fit these disks' emission excess over their stellar photospheres and comparison against models with a variety of dust opacities, the midplane dust in the highly accreting systems may be rich in FeO while the upper layers are depleted of it, suggesting a vertical gradient in the gas phase oxygen abundance. In the outer regions of the disk, oxygen-rich ices appear to be sequestered in the millimeter sized grains in the midplane due to settling; in less settled systems where we do see ice emission, it appears at radii consistent with a proto-Kuiper belt, sometimes in conjunction with flash-heated silicates. Further work to examine variation in grain size distributions at intermediate radii with updated disk models and spatially resolved data is underway.
11/18 seminar: Star Formation in Galaxies
Astrophysics Seminar Series
"Cold Gas Content and Star Formation in Galaxies"
Min Yun
University of Massachusetts
Monday, November 18, 2013
Refreshments at 3:15pm in CAS 500
Talk begins at 3:30pm in CAS 502
Cosmological simulations of large scale structures and mass assembly have shown that the gas accretion rate onto DM halos broadly tracks the observationally established cosmic star formation density evolution, and semi-analytic incorporation of baryon physics has been applied to these simulations to model the build up of ISM and stellar mass in galaxies. I will examine the current data on cold gas content in present day galaxies and their relation to other physical properties such as stellar mass, color, and star formation rate, in the context of understanding the limitations and utilities of such modeling as a tool for studying the mass assembly history of galaxies.
Nov. 12 Tuesday Lunch Talk: The New Heliosphere
Please note our new time of 12:30!
The New Heliosphere
Prof. Merav Opher
BU Astronomy
12:30 pm
November 12, 2013
"As the Sun moves through the interstellar medium it carves a bubble called the heliosphere. A fortunate confluence of missions has provided a treasury of data that will likely not be repeated for decades The measurements in-situ by the Voyager spacecrafts, combined with the all-sky images of the heliospheric boundaries by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer mission have transformed our understanding of heliosphere. In particular one of the first surprises was that both Voyager spacecrafts found no evidence for the acceleration of the anomalous cosmic rays (ACRs) at the termination shock as expected for approximately 25 years. Another challenge are the energetically particles intensities and the plasma flows that are dramatically different at Voyager 1 and 2. There are several other observations that are key challenges to the heliospheric models such as a) Why the azimuthal magnetic flux is not conserved along the Voyager 1 trajectory? b) What causes the flow stagnation region seen at Voyager 1? c) What causes the unexpected observation of a depletion-region beginning in 2012 at Voyager 1? These observations point to the need to move past the standard description of the heliosphere. In this talk I will review the state-of-the art of our understanding of this "new heliosphere". I will review our model that proposes that collisionless reconnection is happening within the sector region (the region where the solar magnetic field reverses polarity) and can explain the different observational puzzles. I will review our model as well as describe its consequences for the transport, acceleration of particles as well as for the flows and fields in the heliosheath. Finally, recent observations indicate a magnetic connectivity between the heliosheath magnetic field and the interstellar medium magnetic field; where the energetic particles of the heliosheath leaked out while the galactic cosmic rays penetrated the heliosheath. I will comment on our current effort of understanding the nature of the heliopause. We argue that these observations can be explained by Voyager 1 being in the last layer of the heliosheath where the heliosheath magnetic field reconnect with the interstellar magnetic field, what we call the "porous heliosheath". The knowledge gain from the edge of the heliosphere will have consequences for other astrospheres and astrosheaths where the magnetic nature of the winds could be much more complex that previously thought."
11/7 seminar: Resolving Earth and Space Science Uncertainty
Space Physics Seminar
Resolving Earth and Space Science Uncertainty:
One tiny satellite at a time
Lars Dyrud
Draper Laboratory
Thursday, November 7, 2013
725 Commonwealth Ave.
Refreshments at 3:30pm in CAS 500
Talk begins at 4:00pm in CAS 502
Two thematic drivers are motivating the science community towards constellations of small satellites, the revelation that many next generation system science questions are uniquely addressed with sufficient numbers of simultaneous space based measurements, and the realization that space is historically expensive, and in an environment of constrained costs, we must innovate to "do more with less". We present analysis that answers many of the key questions surrounding constellations of scientific satellites, including research that resulted from the GEOScan community based effort originally intended as hosted payloads on Iridium NEXT. We present analysis that answers the question how many satellites does global system science require? Perhaps serendipitously, the analyses show that many of the key science questions independently converge towards similar results, i.e. that 20-40 satellites are needed for transformative, as opposed to incremental capability in system science. We focus on climate, carbon-cycle, and gravity science as demonstrations of these findings, including results from funded and proposed NASA missions, ERIS, RAVAN and EPIC. We conclude with a discussion on implementation plans and the new paradigms for community and international cooperation enabled by small satellite constellations.
11/4 seminar: the Epoch of Reionization
Astrophysics Seminar Series
"Hydrogen and Heavy Element Measurements near the Epoch of Reionization"
Robert Simcoe
Monday, November 4, 2013
Refreshments at 3:15pm in CAS 500
Talk begins at 3:30pm in CAS 502
Infrared photometric surveys are now discovering quasars at z > 6.5, enabling investigation of neutral Hydrogen and its associated heavy elements at the tail end of the reionization epoch. I will discuss results from our earliest spectroscopic observations of these objects using FIRE on Magellan, and frame these results in the context of early circumgalactic metal pollution. I will also discuss limitations of the current measurements and ways that next-generation telescopes may help address these shortcomings. Finally, I will provide a high-level overview of selected new instrumentation concepts and technology development projects underway at MIT.
October 28 seminar: Dusty Galaxies
Astrophysics Seminar Series
"The evolution of dusty galaxies as seen through their infrared spectral energy distributions"
Anna Sajina
Tufts University
Monday, October 28, 2013
Refreshments at 3:15pm in CAS 500
Talk begins at 3:30pm in CAS 502
I will present recent results on characterizing the infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of mid-IR selected z~0.3-3.0 and L_IR~10^10-10^13Lsun galaxies, and study how their SEDs differ from those of local and high-z analogs. Infrared SEDs depend both on the power source (AGN or star-formation) and the dust distribution. Therefore, differences in the SEDs of high-z and local galaxies provide clues as to differences in their physical conditions. I will show that there is strong evolution in the SEDs between local and z~2 IR-luminous galaxies, as well as that there is a wide range of SEDs among high redshift IR-luminous sources. I will discuss possible explanations for this SED evolution as revealed in the morphology (based on HST NICMOS images) of our sources, and as revealed by theoretical SED models (based on GADGET+SUNRISE simulations).

Digital Humanities
Digital Humanities is a broad and growing field of inquiry that promotes the use of computers and the Internet in research, in teaching, and in the dissemination of knowledge in the humanities and the humanistic social sciences. Importantly, Digital Humanities also engages in critical analysis of the impact of digital technologies on humanities work and on humanity itself. Numerous scholarly and pedagogical activities fall under Digital Humanities' broad rubric. These activities include building digital tools, archives, and collections; using tools to discern patterns in texts and data collections; sharing the results of humanistic research on accessible multimodal platforms; pedagogical innovation and analysis; the creative use of social networking technologies; and critical engagement with the effects of the globalized networked culture on human lives and human relations. As a field, Digital Humanities has developed theories and best practices in project planning and management, collaboration, and in recognition of project contributors--both students and faculty. As a community of practice, Digital Humanities embraces the values of openness, fairness, access, reflection, experimentation, collaboration, critical engagement, interdisciplinarity, and democracy in the public sharing of humanistic knowledge.
USD's new Humanities Center contains a Digital Humanities Studio--a space where students and faculty can work together on digital projects, whether short-term class assignments/activities or longer-term DH projects that may occur over several years, or even several decades. The Humanities Center DH Postdoctoral Fellow, Paul Evans, is available to talk with faculty and students about DH project ideas and to facilitate start-ups and collaborate on projects.

There has been a lot of doom and gloom talk by Vedic astrologers regarding the mutual aspect of the Mars and Saturn, that is now occuring until February 6th when Mars moves into Taurus. There is some obvious reasons for this. These are both first rate malefic planets with Mars in its own volatile militaristic fire sign of Aries and Saturn is in an enemy's sign of Cancer. Just a casual glance at the news since July 19th when Mars entered Aries reveals the destructive power of this mutual aspect: hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and the recent earthquake in Pakistan to name just a few of the horrific natural disasters.
However, since Jupiter has entered Libra on September 28th there has been another development that I think is worth noting. On that very day Tom Delay, the House majority leader, was indicted for criminal conspiracy regarding campaign funding. Jupiter is the planet of ethics, and since Jupiter entered Libra and began aspecting Mars in Aries there have been numerous ethics issues that have come to the surface that have exposed the criminal activity of the Bush administration. This also represents when the double transit of Jupiter and Saturn are both aspecting Mars in Aries. Other top leaders in the Bush administration who have been under fire for ethics issues in the last few weeks are Karl Rove, Bill Frist, and I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby. I find this encouraging and hopeful and indicative of the power and importance of Jupiter in corrupt times.
Chart of October 16, 2005
Jupiter is the planet of wisdom, ethics, faith and hope. Our outlook becomes more positive as we focus on our spiritual life and connect to Jupiter's noble qualities. Jupiter is the planet of inspiration and I'm encouraged by how many people are choosing to live their inspiration by doing positive work in the world. Jupiter is also the planet of solutions, and solutions only become possible when we're focusing on them and not just the problems. No matter how difficult things look on a personal or planetary level there's always hope for a better life.

Atlanta Falcons (10-2)
What went right? Another test, another test passed. On a sloppy field in Tampa Bay, the Buccaneers gave the Falcons everything they could handle, but once again the frontrunners for the top seed in the NFC got the victory. Following a Bucs touchdown that put Tampa Bay ahead by 10 in the fourth quarter, Eric Weems ran the ensuing kickoff back for a score. The defense responded with a three-and-out, then Matt Ryan led the offense on a 10-play touchdown drive to put the Falcons ahead for good.
What went wrong? Ryan threw two interceptions, the Falcons' first turnovers of any kind in the last five games.
What question needs to be answered? There are not a lot of unanswered questions with this team. The Falcons just need to maintain their focus and win their next two games against awful teams (the Panthers and Seattle Seahawks) before what should be a classic Week 16 game against the New Orleans Saints.
New Orleans Saints (9-3)
What went right? Drew Brees became the Saints' all-time leader in passing yardage, but it was his hard count that saved the game. Down by three with under a minute to play, the Saints had a fourth-and-2 inside the Cincinnati Bengals' 5-yard line. Rather than try a field goal and send the game to overtime, Sean Payton elected to have Brees try a freeze play to get the Bengals to jump offsides. The Bengals -- being the Bengals -- obliged. Just like that, the Saints got a gift first down and scored on the next play to go ahead.
What went wrong? The Saints were penalized 11 times for 100 yards. Usually that leads to a defeat ... unless you're playing the Bengals.
What question needs to be answered? What effect, if any, will Pierre Thomas have on the offense when he returns from an ankle injury, presumably this week? His return means there is one more mouth to feed on an offense loaded with talent.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-5)
What went right? They had 'em. They had the Falcons right where they wanted them, but maybe they just didn't know what to do with such a big lead so late in a game. The Bucs are used to coming from behind, not putting the nail in the coffin.
What went wrong? The loss means the Bucs will need lots of help to make the playoffs. Add to that the news that CB Aqib Talib and C Jeff Faine both got put on IR and it seems like the Bucs' magic has run out.
What question needs to be answered? Do they have enough resolve left to muster a few more surprises for the doubters?
Can the Panthers get back in the mix as early as 2011? Talk in the message boards.

The admission comes after the 38-year-old singer apologised for having a string of affairs behind his wife's back.
Owen, who has often been seen as a "squeaky clean" member of the reunited group, said he was "deeply sorry" for the "pain" he had caused to his wife and friends through his flings with as many as 10 women.
The pop star and his wife Emma, who have two children, married only last October but have been together for five years.
In a confession to The Sun, he said he had seen a number of women over the years during his relationship. And, in fresh revelations on Friday, Owen branded himself "a prat", disclosing that he was seeing a therapist in a bid to "sort things out".
He told the newspaper he had discussed his drink problem with bandmates Gary Barlow, Jason Orange and Howard Donald and had sought advice from former Take That member Robbie Williams, who battled alcohol and drug addiction.
The singer - who also admitted he had been a heavy cannabis user and still smokes the occasional joint - said: "I have had issues for a long time. I've drunk for the last 10 years and it got to a bad point."
He went on: "I never really saw the problem. I carried on drinking through my relationship with Emma and it got to the point where she asked me to stop. I've never liked drinking during the day but once the kids went to bed, I'd get the bottle open and off I went.
Referring to his flings, the star said: "I want to make it absolutely clear I am not using the drink as an excuse. I've been living with the guilt. Maybe the drink was my way of dealing with the guilt."
Oldham-born Owen has a three-year-old son Elwood and daughter Willow Rose, who is one. He broke the news of his infidelity to his wife at their London home on Wednesday.Reuse content

The birds have flown. They still own the English Garden and English House in Chelsea, but since last November have been based in Shropshire. They've hardly opted for the quiet life, though, for rather than keep their hand in with a swagged-curtain-and-foie-gras dinner venue, they and their front- of-house manager from London, Alex Grainger, are running a roadhouse on the A49 that's open every day of the year. You can't miss The Cookhouse: it's an imposing red-brick listed house just outside Ludlow, which in terms of restaurants is the Soho of the Welsh borders. Shaun Hill's Merchant House is well established in the town, and the Michelin-starred Mr Underhill's relocated from Suffolk to just below the castle at the same time as The Cookhouse opened.
The Cookhouse used to be a pub, the Clive Arms, in deference to the family that still owns it and 8,000 surrounding acres (feudalism never died out hereabouts). The estate workers, along with passing trade, still make up the bulk of the clientele.
From 7.30am, The Cookhouse serves breakfast in the cafe, which looks like a designer take on a transport caff: a very metropolitan matrix of blond wood, bare walls and matt-black table tops - with a ketchup and HP sauce bottle on each. Breakfast gives way to a cafe menu of steak-and-kidney pie, bangers and mash, croque monsieur, and puds ranging from lemon tart to knickerbocker glory; a simple selection of something for everyone which does not spread itself as far and wide as a French brasserie menu. Next door, is a buttercup-yellow restaurant with more serious intentions - more of this later. On the other side is the bar, with Tetley's beer mats on glass-topped tables - the new-look setting for the pub's dominoes team.
I first went to The Cookhouse cafe when friends from across the county converged there for a birthday party on a Sunday night. It proved how difficult it is to be a critic and a good guest at the same time. First, you're not disposed to criticise; second, even if you want to, you can't necessarily remember much about the meal (unless it's remarkably good or bad). In these circumstances, if we're not careful, we may even forget what we do and enjoy ourselves.
Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, and I do remember that my next-door neighbour on one side ordered a Greek salad, and found it more than he could eat (unusual for a farmer, I'd have thought), that the lamb's liver terrine was crumbly, and bread was own-baked and good. Steak chasseur satisfied those who ordered it (beef-eating is an article of faith round here, even if some people have a salad chaser), and there was more than some could eat. Thai chicken curry, faithfully made and not with a paste, pulled its punches: it was more like a finely-flavoured, lemongrassy sauce, served with plain grains of saffron rice, rather than the usual sticky white. Bread-and-butter pudding, a neat circle with apricot coulis, was just as eggy and sultana-studded as it should be; the alternative was hazelnut and chocolate roulade. Top-class dinner-party cooking, which was just what was called for on this occasion, and two courses for only pounds 9, three for pounds 11.
This didn't seem rigorous enough for a full recommendation, so I went back to The Cookhouse restaurant for an a la carte lunch, topped and tailed with canapes and petits fours, which pitches it into the eating-for-a-treat bracket.
This meal suggested the chef has rather a sweet tooth: of two well-put- together starters, red mullet on mixed leaves came with a dressing that claimed to be gazpacho, but seemed more oriental than Andalucian; asparagus - fat, juicy, grass-green spears - came sandwiched between parmesan crisps, surrounded by quails' eggs. Asparagus was the only seasonal produce (and, even so, probably from Spain); everything else could have come from anywhere at any time of year, which seems a shame when there's so much growing and grazing around here. Guinea fowl, with a crisp brown skin, was as good as it gets, though the lemon, lime and coriander sauce around it was pink and slightly jammy. Sea bream en papillote, with a medley of tomato, red pepper, black olive, almonds and pine kernels, was a little overcooked and not quite redolent enough of the Med, though the juices mingled well with dauphinoise potato.
Though The Cookhouse restaurant serves colourful and pretty dishes, with the competition it's up against in Ludlow, it's providing a more dispensable service than the smart caff next door. That, the very model of a modern English routier, knocks every Harvester into a straw hat, and is worth crossing an A-road, even a county, for
The Cookhouse, Bromfield, Ludlow, Shropshire (01584 856565). Cafe open daily from 7.30am, lunch and dinner. Restaurant lunch and dinner daily. Average cafe lunch around pounds 9, set-price dinner two courses pounds 9, three pounds 11. Restaurant: average pounds 20, three courses without wine.

An Asian teenager was battered to death by his racist cellmate during a "perverted" gladiator-style game by prison officers, a senior official claimed yesterday.
Guards at the young offenders institution thought it was a "joke" and a "laugh" to lock up conflicting inmates in a sport they nicknamed Coliseum or Gladiator, an inquiry in London was told. Unsuitable detainees would be pitted together while officers bet on the results. On this occasion the game went "dramatically wrong" and the psychopath Robert Stewart repeatedly battered Zahid Mubarek, 19, with a table leg.
Mubarek, who had been due to be released that day after serving a short sentence for theft, died in hospital seven days later. The inquiry into his death heard that Stewart, who is serving a life sentence, was placed in the same cell at Feltham young offenders institution in March 2000 despite warnings that he was dangerous and had written racist correspondence.
Yesterday Duncan Keys, the assistant general secretary of the Prison Officers' Association (POA), said the belief that Mubarek had died because of the Gladiator practice had haunted him so much that he had reported it anonymously to the Commission for Racial Equality. He said that his revelation had led to him being harangued and receiving death threats. Senior union officials had told him to "shut up".
The inquiry saw a transcript of Mr Keys's anonymous call to the CRE in May last year, in which he said: "I'm no bleeding heart on this but that kid was murdered for other people's perverted pleasure.
"The game was called Coliseum. Mubarek was killed because people thought it was funny to see what would happen when they put a young Asian lad in with someone who wanted to kill Asians.
"Now Mubarek wasn't the only victim there. He was the victim that died. Other people had this joke played on them as well.If they had two exceptionally tough prisoners that both wanted to rule the roost they would be put in a cell together."
Mr Keys said he had been told of the practice by a colleague who said that staff at the young offender institution found the games "amusing". He had called the race watchdog, he said, because he believed a cover-up was taking place, adding: "I was just desperate to kick-start an inquiry, a serious inquiry into the information that I had been given."
In addition to his secret call, he told the hearing yesterday: "I had gone to the general secretary and the deputy general secretary of my own union and I had told them of my deep concerns and the information I had. I was subsequently told to shut up." Some time later the union's senior officials informed the director general of prisons, Phil Wheatley.
In a July 2004 police interview, Mr Keys told detectives he believed the game amounted to "a conspiracy to murder", but investigating officers brought no charges after finding no evidence to back the claim.
Mr Keys admitted that he had no direct evidence that Mubarek's murder was linked to Gladiator. He said that he had heard it from Tom Robson, a POA national executive committee member with responsibility for Feltham in 2000. The practice was well known by senior union officials, he said.
The hearing was adjourned until tomorrow.

At NYCC, Venture Bros.' Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer regaled hundreds at the Friday night panel. But the real action was in Saturday's press room, where the writers of TV's funniest show fired off quips like some quip-firing machine gun.
Here were the pertinent spoilers from Friday night's panel:
— Molotov and Hunter Gathers will be back for more, and the guys seemed to suggest there will be two more moppets, though that may have been them fucking with us. They suggested the relationship with Brock and Gathers will be tested, and it somehow involves someone getting an extra hand.
— Jackson was afraid the last episode was a shark jumper, and he and Doc had bet $5 that the NYCC audiences would hate or love it. Doc won, as the audience seemed to really like last week's noirishness.

Jenkins was no doubt thrilled with his big day. But he was distraught afterward.
"I'd trade all the stats and touchdowns for a win. It's disappointing. But like Coach Zook said, on Monday we'll watch the film and then get ready to work."
A. J. Jenkins will always remember his first two Illini touchdowns. On the first, a Minnesota defensive lapse left him wide open on the sideline.
"I was surprised. I looked up and had no corner or safety on me. They didn't cover me at all. So Juice saw me and threw the ball, and I just had to make a play."
That 54 yard pass/catch touchdown brought life to an offense stymied by offensive inconsistency. His second touchdown catch, a 35 yarder where he made a great leaping catch in the back of the end zone, gave the Illini a chance to win. He didn't even expect to be in on that play.
"Actually, I was on the bench to get some water and Coach Zook called my name to go out on the field. Juice just threw it up and trusted me to get the ball."
The 6'-0", 175 pounder out of Terry Parker High School in Jacksonville, Florida, is an outstanding talent with speed and a 38 inch vertical leap. Scout rated him the 36th best receiver in the nation last year, and he was named a SuperPrep All-American. But it is his work ethic that has allowed him to see the field this soon.
"Coach Zook is very strict about who he puts out on the field. So I believe my hard work has been a big help to me. Right now, I'm just trying to fit into the program and the offense."
Wide receiver coach Kurt Beathard works with A. J. after most practices.
"Yeah, he wants to work," Beathard explains. "He understands he can't just go out and do it anymore. He's trying to get better at the little things, a correction here or there after every game. We try to get those things better.
"Every night, he goes home with a list of corrections from the day. And he writes them up and brings them back to me with copies. That helps him learn it. That dedication will help in the long run. He's a good kid to work with."
Jenkins confirms the story.
"It helps me alot. I really want to be a very good receiver for this program. So I figured me staying after practice helps me learn more about the offense and my craft. Coach Beathard always gives me homework every night. He tells me to write up some plays. I always give him more than he asks. That's kind of helped me out."
A. J. also appreciates the help provided by his fellow receivers.
"On my visit when I was still in high school, Rejus (Benn)was my mentor. So Rejus has been kind of a big brother for me. Will Judson, Chris James, Jeff Cumberland, Chris Duvalt, Jarrod Fayson, all the upperclassmen receivers have been big brother types for me."
Jenkins is a humble young man who wants to earn his place. He has learned a lot about patience.
"My Pops always told me to stay patient. The path to success is to keep working hard. When the opportunity comes, you have to take advantage of it. And Juice (Williams) and all the mentors have kind of guided me to stay humble and be patient."
A. J. also has kickoff duties, and he is waiting patienty for a seam to open so he can take it the distance. But his hunger for personal success is superceded by team goals.
"People have been thinking we are like the old Illini. Coach Zook has been trying to help us get more swagger into the game. People have been thinking last year was kind of a fluke, and we've been trying to prove everybody wrong. Kind of get a new identity."

Looking at EMD's worm-like yellow and brown Union Pacific M-10000, its gleaming stainless steel Burlington Zephyr, or the boxy, just-plain-ugly early Santa Fe units, it's apparent that here was a new function looking for its form. The first generation of road diesels found its form in 1937 when the initial E-units, built for the B&O, inaugurated the classic "covered wagon" cab unit design that would last for decades on both freight and passenger diesels.

It's the 25th January 2016, and I'm lucky enough to be going to Amsterdam for the Awwwards conference. A late addition to the already-impressive bill of speakers is Hi-ReS!, a design agency whose early work inspired me to start a career in this industry. Excited, as you can see, is an understatement.
I may be showing my age (a bit), but let me take you back to 1999 when the internet was in its infancy and I was trying to become a Bachelor of the (Dark) Arts at Southampton Instititute. My eyes were opened by the work of Hi-ReS! founders and designers Alexandra Jugovic and Florian Schmitt, who made their names creating memorable experiences with immersive Flash websites.
I remember very clearly the first time I experienced Soulbath, their first 'digital art experiment' and non-commercial website sitting in a darkened computer room in Southampton. The site was described by Hi-ReS! as: "mainly void of colour and celebrating malfunction as a source of beauty and surprise". The interactive element resonated strongly with me, inspiring me to create my own piece of project work in homage to my own experience with the site.
Part of my connection with Hi-ReS! was how they worked with filmmakers to expand the cinematic offering and further explore the theme online. In 2000, on the back of the success of Soulbath, they got their first commercial project working with filmmaker Darren Aronofsky on Requiem for a Dream.
At the time Hi-ReS! said of the site: "The idea was absolutely inspired by the film. We wanted to create a website that rots, falls apart and finally kicks you out".
In 2001 Hi-ReS! created what is possibly their most well-known site for the film Donnie Darko. In an extract from the Hi-ReS! website they say: "What attracted us to Donnie Darko, was its narrative structure and the possibilities it offered for an online expansion. While the film plays over a period of 28 days, the site becomes the narrative's prologue and epilogue and reflects the film's puzzle-like structure in the way it is constructed and left open-ended..."
For me, this was their best work, and I have fond memories of how I felt while interacting with the site. If you haven't seen it before or if, like me, you haven't seen it for 15 years, it would be interesting to hear if you think it stands up over all these years and resonates in the same way.
Fast-forward 15 years to 2016. I'm in The Royal Tropical Institute, a stunning neo-renaissance building, for the Awwwards Conference in Amsterdam, where Hi-ReS! are giving a talk entitled 'Making the Internet great again'.
It's not Alexandra or Florian at the helm, but their two colleagues, David Paul Rosser and Le Shka, who have worked and produced their latest experimental project VOID. It's described on The FWA (where it wins cutting-edge site of the day) as "a playground for us to experiment with new visual and sonic concepts and technology … or Soulbath version 2.0 (15 years late)".
Hi-ReS! can no longer create immersive websites using Flash technology (it is 2016), so VOID, although purely a desktop experience, was built using WebGL and web audio technologies. It's their latest attempt at exploring how digital art can be perceived and interacted with on the internet. If you'd like to read more on the technology behind VOID, take a look at this excellent post from Hi-ReS! Creating the VOID.
As luck had it, Hi-ReS! just completed the next instalment of Void Chapter 2 – Pandora, launching it the day before the Awwwards conference. For the presentation they attempted a live demo of the site, asking the audience to connect using their own devices to the multi-user experience, and explore a new dimension of sound and visuals in the auditorium.
Unlike the first chapter of VOID, VOID Chapter 2 - Pandora worked across all devices. Unfortunately, due to technical difficulties in the auditorium, it failed to work in front of hundreds of designers and developers from around the world. Hi-ReS! had a trick up their sleeve, though: simply enter the Konami Code when the site loads (Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A) and you can experience the site in retro Hi-ReS! style, putting us all right back in 1999.
I've already touched upon the fact that Hi-ReS! sites are full of emotion, so it was great to take part in the workshop: "A guide to designing for emotion" with Henry Daubrez from award winning Belgium design agency Dogstudio. Their site for Dragone won users' choice Site of the Year at last year's Awwwards conference in Barcelona.
I've been a long-time admirer of Henry's work, and his workshop gave me an insight into how he creates beautiful, rich imagery with depth and emotion, all from the most basic of client-supplied assets.
The way he uses images to tell stories means he brings sites to life through a combination of illustration and graphic design. His websites are taken to a new level of emotion not currently seen in the flat design trend we have seen across digital design for the last few years. I'm looking forward to passing on a few of these techniques to the rest of the design team and bringing some of these influences into the sites we design here at e3.
It's Friday afternoon, and after 17 talks across two days, covering the many different disciplines from the amazing industry we work in, it was time to crown the winning site of 2015. I had already voted in the user choice category prior before the conference, and I had a good idea who should win. If I were a betting man I know who would have got my last euros.
It came as no surprise (to me) that the winner of 2015 Site of the Year went to French agency 84.Paris and their site for music label Because Music. The label had just turned 10, and to mark the occasion they created Because Recollection, an interactive journey through ten years of sound and artwork.
The 84.Paris site is a pure delight, and as playful and interactive as anything I have seen recently on the web. It scored highly (obviously) in all four of the categories the Awwwards sites are judged on: Design, Usability, Creativity and Content.
If you haven't experienced Because Recollection yet I really urge you to do so. Built using WebGL I was surprised to find the experience works across all devices, including mobile.
The site is unlike the early days of Hi-ReS!, when part of the experience was having no real clear visual signposting to what was clickable, or no prior knowledge as to how you should interact with it. Instead, it was up to the user to explore and immerse themselves in the experience.
This approach would not be possible on a site that wins Site of the Year. Remember, one of the Awwwards categories is 'Usability'. I'm not saying the Because Recollection site is or should be compared to the early work of Hi-ReS!, as clearly the internet has evolved. So much so that the Because Recollection site even has a clearly labelled 'Need help?' button. This is 2016, after all.
You can definitely say, though, that the humour, playfulness, emotion and element of surprise in the Site of the Year has all the traits from days gone by. This was even more evident seeing the team that worked on this excellent site up on the stage collecting their award. With all the Gallic flair you would expect from a French creative team, what better way to acknowledge their achievement to the rest of the world (and team back in Paris) by recording and streaming it live via Periscope.
And so to the Awwwards afterparty: an 'open' bar and a chance to chat to the fellas from Hi-ReS! This story can wait for another day. Today belonged to the Awwwards winners 84.Paris and their 2015 Site of the Year Because Recollection.
To see some of our award-winning work, take a look at our latest for Orange and their global brand guidelines.

Giants end minicamp, not work for 2013 season
Associated Press | Last updated June 13, 2013
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ - OCTOBER 11: Head coach Tom Coughlin of the New York Giants looks on against the Oakland Raiders during their game on October 11, 2009 at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Giants defeated the Raiders 44-7. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images)
After being warned by coach Tom Coughlin that now was not the time to slack off, the New York Giants held their final workout before the start of training camp in late July. Coughlin put the team through a short jog through Thursday in ending a mandatory three-game minicamp for rookies and veterans. The only notable player missing was leading receiver Victor Cruz, the restricted free agent who has yet to reach a deal on a new contract. Cruz wants roughly $10 million annually and the Giants have offered between $7 million-to-$8 million. While a deal is expected, the pressing issue will be getting back to the playoffs in 2013. After winning the Super Bowl in February, 2012, the Giants missed out with a 9-7 mark last season.

Malawian peasant farmer Yohane Banda said plans for his 13-monthold son David to be adopted were already in motion when Madonna came on the scene.
Mr Banda spoke of his regret that she had taken David when he could have had a much quieter life had he been adopted by the other, unnamed, woman.
For six years the woman has been making donations to the Home Of Hope orphanage in Mchinji, where David was placed by his father after his mother died from childbirth complications. The woman has also regularly lived there for three months at a time.
Mr Banda said: 'The woman's brother's name was also David and she sent him pictures of my son and said he was going to come and collect him. We were waiting for them both to come back to the village, but Madonna took him first.
'If these people had adopted him, no one would have ever caused this fuss and I could be living my life as normal.'
The new claim came as the main benefactor to the orphanage, a 70-year-old Canadian grandmother who had developed a close bond with David in his first year of life, spoke of her feelings about Madonna taking 'one of our babies'.
Retired teacher Jane Glaves had been making regular trips to the orphanage since 2000, staying for long periods with many of the children at a house she has built there.
In 2003 she took twin boys and a girl to Canada to be adopted, the only non-Malawian ever to do so. She was consulted by officials from Malawi over Madonna's adoption.
Mrs Glaves said: 'David is such a special little boy. I would take them all in if I could, but I just could not put myself through it again.'
Speaking about Madonna's adoption, she told First magazine: 'All I knew about her was that she cavorted half naked in a conical bra. I found it difficult to come to terms with the fact she wanted one of our babies.'
Mrs Glaves said she was perplexed when Madonna chose David. 'We put forward the names of children who had nobody, but she chose David knowing he had a living parent,' she said.
She added: 'Madonna has said she was told David's family had never been to visit him. But David's dad used to come to see him regularly.'
Malawian law says foreigners must live in the country for 18 months before they are eligible to adopt a child. Madonna has admitted that her team had to 'make the laws up as they went along' to adopt David.
When Mrs Glaves was involved in the adoption of the twins and a girl by two Canadian families, the process took three years.
'At first I was angry that Madonna seemed to be able to adopt David so quickly because of the length of time and stress the other two families had to endure,' she said. 'In my six years working in Malawi, they are the only orphans I know to have left the country. Madonna obviously had very good lawyers.'
Last week Madonna, 48, said that when she met David at the orphanage she was told his mother had died of Aids, while his father's whereabouts were unknown.
But Mr Banda said: 'This is not true. I used to cycle there almost every week to play with him, and his grandmother would sometimes go and spend a few days there.
David was not an abandoned baby. He was very much loved.'
On the claim that his wife had died of Aids, he said: 'She never went for an HIV test, so how could anyone know?'
He added, however: 'I made the right decision. I am glad he's been adopted and every day I am happy knowing my son will lead a better life. All children need a mother.'
Tonight Madonna will give her first British interview about the adoption to BBC2's Newsnight.

text: So here we have a piece in last Thursday's Guardian. Joe (Glenton) has (by the utterings attributed to him in the article) certainly come on in recent years to become a good leftie, he is using many phrases that could well spring from an approved phrasebook. If he wants to be taken seriously I would suggest that he updates his patter. I also notice from the various quotes that I see in passing attributed to Julian (Assange) that he has adopted the same kind of right on, unoriginal rhetoric. It occurred to me that they could make a very well suited loved up couple, perhaps a nice ceremony for the pair conducted by the Taliban, I'd love to see the photos.
