TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 30, 2012) -
Detour Gold Corporation (TSX:DGC) ("Detour Gold" or the "Company") announces today that it will commence a solicitation of consents (the "Consent Solicitation") to amend the trust indenture (the "Indenture") governing its 5.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes in the principal amount of US$250,000,000 due November 30, 2017 (the "Convertible Notes").
The purpose of the Consent Solicitation is to obtain approval for certain proposed amendments to the Indenture (the "Proposed Amendments") which would provide the Company with greater financial flexibility. The Company will pay a one-time consent fee calculated at the rate of 50 basis points (equivalent to US$5.00 per US$1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, the "Consent Fee") to holders of the Convertible Notes who consent to the Proposed Amendments on or prior to the expiration date of the Consent Solicitation if the Proposed Amendments are successfully passed as set out in the consent solicitation statement (the "Consent Solicitation Statement"). The Proposed Amendments would, amongst other things as described in the Consent Solicitation Statement:
Gerald Panneton, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The Detour Lake project remains on schedule and on budget for commencement of production in the first quarter of 2013. This is a prudent step for the Company as the Proposed Amendments will provide increased financial flexibility in establishing a revolving line of credit."
Construction was approximately 65% completed as of April 30, 2012.
The project control estimate for the Detour Lake gold project remains unchanged at Cdn$1.45 billion. As at April 30, 2012, Cdn$821 million of the project expenditures had been spent, leaving approximately Cdn$629 million left to be spent. As at April 30, 2012, the Company had Cdn$762 million in cash and short-term investments, sufficient to fully finance the remaining project expenditures, with the remainder available for corporate expenditures and mine start-up costs.
The terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitation will be set out in the Consent Solicitation Statement expected to be mailed to holders of the Convertible Notes on or about June 13, 2012.
The Proposed Amendments require the consent of the holders of not less than 66 2/3% of the principal amount of the outstanding Convertible Notes, and are subject to various conditions, including regulatory approval.
Detour Gold is also a party to a second trust indenture (the "Paulson Indenture") governing 5.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes in the principal amount of US$175,000,000 due November 30, 2017 (the "Paulson Notes") and a third trust indenture (the "Class A Indenture") governing Class A 5.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes in the principal amount of US$75,000,000 due November 30, 2017 (the "Class A Notes").
The sole registered holder of the Paulson Notes and the Class A Notes ("Paulson") has already consented to proposed amendments to each of the Paulson Indenture and the Class A Indenture that are in substance identical to the Proposed Amendments, with such amendments becoming effective upon the successful completion of the Consent Solicitation.
The Consent Solicitation will be open until 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on June 26, 2012, unless extended or cancelled by the Company. The record date for purposes of the Consent Solicitation is 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on June 5, 2012. The effectiveness of the Proposed Amendments and the payment of the Consent Fee are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set out in the Consent Solicitation Statement.
Beneficial owners of Convertible Notes that are held in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other intermediary, or in the name of a clearing agency of which such intermediary is a participant, should contact such intermediary promptly and obtain and follow their intermediary's instructions with respect to the applicable consent procedures and deadlines, which may be earlier than the deadlines set out in the Consent Solicitation Statement.
Those holders of Convertible Notes who validly deliver their consent to the Proposed Amendments, where such consent is accepted, will be entitled to receive the Consent Fee, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions as described in the Consent Solicitation Statement. If the Consent Solicitation is successful, Paulson will be entitled to receive a consent fee equal to the Consent Fee, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
For further information, refer to the Consent Solicitation Statement which will be filed on SEDAR and will contain a full description of the Proposed Amendments.
Each holder of Convertible Notes should contact their tax advisor for advice with respect to such holder's circumstances.
This press release is neither a solicitation of consents, an offer to purchase the Convertible Notes nor a solicitation of an offer to sell securities. The Consent Solicitation is being made solely by the Consent Solicitation Statement.
Requests for assistance in completing an appropriate consent form, requests for copies of the Consent Solicitation Statement, an appropriate consent form or other related documents or questions concerning the terms of the Consent Solicitation should be directed to the Solicitation Agent, BMO Capital Markets, at 1 First Canadian Place, 100 King Street West, 4th Floor, Toronto, ON M5X 1H3 or by calling Carey Squires at 416-359-5334.

Last year I bought some heelsandals without straps. I thought I could learn to walk in them but I failed. I love heels so much but when there is no back I just can't get a grip on them. My feet just slip out the shoes. I have the same thing with flip flops but that's another story. But I found a solution to turn my no strap heelsandals into a pair I do can walk in. It's super easy and just takes like a minute.
You'll need:
- a pair of heelsandals without straps or a pair of pumps without straps
- a rubber band in the color of your shoes, or black, or white
- needle and dread (or in my case a sewing machine)

May 8 - Ducks and Rain
Today we had the first sighting of baby ducks in the yard. The mother and 5 ducklings waddled up to get some of the sunflower seed that Dan had put out. Shortly after we saw the ducks a goose and 3 goslings came through our yard. How cute they were! This afternoon we had a much needed rain shower.

Hello there and happy Thursday! Yesterday I shared some ATCs I did for a guest spot at Elizabeth Craft Designs and then I wrote that I used the same supplies to make a layout, too. Here's the layout! If you want to see the steps I made the ATCs, as I used the same steps here, please visit Elizabeth Craft Designs blog (link)!
Like I said, this layout is made using the same steps, but with a twist. Instead of using the hexagons I used to make the background in the ATCs I used the frames in this one. I adhered them to the bottom of the sheet and then added the tea stains on top to form the ground so to say. Then the green leafs and paper layers are stemming from it.
The topic of the page are new potatoes and like the title says - I'm really looking forward to that time when we're able to get the fresh potatoes! They are so yummy, almost like candy! On top of the products I used in the ATCs I also used the Alphabet 2 Lower Case die with a sheet of green cardstock from the Soft Finish Cardstock Sampler Set 3 Timeless set and also some papers from the Through the Lens - Wood papers.
Thank you for stopping by today!

The Cayman Islands opened their first dive shop in 1957 and five decades on the nation still reigns supreme as a favourite among scuba divers. Little Cayman has a sheer coral wall that falls 6,000 feet with a dazzling display of life and colour.
The Caymans are about so much more than diving though. There are three islands but it is Grand Cayman, by far the most developed, where the vast majority of international buyers head. The island has an established and sophisticated business community with over 120 nationalities represented and an excellent range of multi-generation activities make it one of the best locations in the Caribbean for families.
Cayman is a British Overseas territory but one with a strong American influence helped by its proximity to Miami, one hour away by plane. It is the world's sixth largest international banking centre with a solid gold credit rating and is home to many international law and finance firms. It has one of the lowest tax jurisdictions worldwide with no income tax, corporate tax, capital gains tax, VAT or death duties.
It is also overwhelmingly safe, something that its expat community value highly along with the efficient infrastructure of roads, hospitals and schools and the notable wide choice of quality restaurants.
Property choices range from contemporary apartments in impressive modern beachfront buildings to detached villas on the canal. Seven Mile Beach is the beating heart of Grand Cayman, close to most facilities and with the most expensive properties. Nearby Camana Bay is an impressive new open-air retail park and leisure community.
The upmarket community of South Sound is ideal for anyone who wants a home with a boat berth and new golf and residential resorts are being built towards the less developed eastern end of the island, close to charming shabby chic Rum Point.

Kooba Ashley in Metallic Silver Python
Ever see a bag (or anything, I guess) and immediately think "Oh my God, that is GORGEOUS" and then, after you get yourself all excited and paw at it for a few seconds, realize, "Wait…something isn't right."
That's what happened to me last weekend when I encountered the Kooba Ashley at Bloomingdales in Lenox Square Atlanta. I have a soft spot for Kooba since the Kooba Meredith in Slate from Fall/Winter '07 is my favorite handbag of all time. I also think that pewter is the classiest metallic out there, and the Kooba Ashley's most striking finish is a dark silver faux python. So, this bag should be practically made for me, right? Have the handbag gods been listening to all of my silent prayers? That's what I thought, too.
And the bag is a stunner, don't get me wrong. It's just…missing something. In pictures on many shopping sites, the bag looks like it might have some sort of pockets on the front, which gives the bag both visual interest AND added functionality (a girl's gotta put her cell phone somewhere). In person, though, I realized that there were no pockets of any sort on the exterior of the bag – just rouching.
Well, there is also some sort of nonfunctional buckle/strap down the middle, but it had no use that I could discern. It certainly wouldn't hold a cell phone, and really, a big factor in my bag decisions is the potential for purse-cell phone symbiosis. Also, the straps are a little too long to carry it as a satchel, and the bag is an awkward shape to be carried as a shoulder bag (plus, it has two handles, which means any attempt at shoulder carrying will just make me want to stab it).
So, I'm not sure. It's a beautiful bag. It's got a lot of nice things about it (seriously, the color is trying to distract me from the two handles, the weird strappy thing, and the nonexistent pockets. The color is trying REALLY HARD). I really want to covet it. But I just don't think that I am. $675 via Kooba.
Also available in black leather for $625 via Shop Bop and taupe leather for $625 via Shop Bop.
P.S. Please consider supporting our small, bag-loving team by clicking our links before shopping or checking out at your favorite online retailers like Amazon, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, or any of the listed partners on our shop page. We truly appreciate your support!

A lovely testament to your friend Dottie....Love all the quilts...they are magnificent...and congratulations on your new endeavors!! Good luck, I know you will be a success!ReplyDelete
Here's a question from a non-quilter... Is longarm a term relating to machine quilting? Or is the Emily quilt all hand quilted?ReplyDelete
They are all awesomely beautiful and soooo intricate!
I think "Birds of the Forest" is my favorite.
Judy- yes, a long-arm machine is a large special machine used for quilting. There are many, many talented long-arm artists out there!ReplyDelete

Most people don't send thank-you notes, but HR managers say it's an important part of the interview process if you want to get the job.
Sending a thank-you note after an interview should be an important part of any job-hunting strategy. Whether or not you send a thank-you note could actually determine if you get the job.
Too bad three out of four job seekers don't even bother sending a thank-you note after an interview, according to a recent Accountemps survey of human resources (HR) managers. The survey found that only 24% of HR managers receive thank-you notes from applicants. However, 80% of HR managers say thank-you notes are helpful when reviewing candidates.
"Sending a well-crafted and timely thank-you note can add a positive impression to an already positive connection," says Jennifer McClure, president of Unbridled Talent, a Cincinnati firm specializing in talent acquisition, recruiting, and staff development.
So, should you send your post-interview letter by email or snail mail, handwritten or typed? In today's fast-paced, technology-driven world, these questions baffle even the most sophisticated job hunters. These guidelines can tell you how to write a thank-you note after your interview.
Email thank-you notes
Email is the most popular—and accepted—way to send a thank-you note after an interview. The Accountemps survey found that 94% of HR managers say it's appropriate to send a thank-you note via email, as most (65%) of the thank-yous they receive are sent by email.
Now, before you rush to hit "send," you'll need to determine if this is the best vehicle for your thank-you note by asking yourself how the company initially contacted you. If you have always corresponded with the company via email for setting up the interview, answering certain questions, and so on, then, by all means, send an email thank-you note as soon as you return from an interview, typically within 24 hours after the interview. Email thank-you notes have one clear advantage over their snail mail counterpart: It's the quickest way to put your name back in front of the interviewer.
However, you should also follow it up with a note in the mail to show that you aren't Mr. or Ms. Casual.
Snail mail
If the company you interviewed with is formal and traditional, use snail mail to send your thank-you note.
Should it be handwritten or typed? Typed is the standard reply. This will demonstrate your ability to communicate professionally by proving that you know how to address, format, and sign a letter. Especially for some positions, such as administrative assistant, hiring managers would want to know that you're a good communicator since writing letters could be a big part of your job.
The extra effort on the part of one candidate made a difference to Carol Galle, president and CEO of Special D Events, an event-planning firm in Royal Oak, Michigan. "I recently filled an open position for which I had two highly qualified candidates, but it was a thank-you note that made the difference," she says. "[One candidate] took the time to create a custom two-dimensional note card with our company's logo and a sincere, handwritten message of thanks. I want to hire people who genuinely want to work for my company, and it was clear from her effort that was the case."
Handwritten notes are appropriate if you'd like to extend your thanks to others in the office who helped you out. For example, if a receptionist, assistant, office manager, or another person involved with the interviewing process was especially helpful—say they took you to lunch or guided you from office to office during the interviewing process—then a handwritten note is a nice gesture to show your appreciation. The Accountemps survey found that 86% of HR managers like handwritten thank-you notes, yet handwritten notes account for only 21% of the letters they receive.
What to say in your thank-you note
What you say and how you say it are even more important than the manner in which you send it. A standard thank-you note should accomplish several things:
-Thank the person for the opportunity to interview with the company.
-Plug your skills: "The job is a good fit for me because of XYZ and my past experience in XYZ."
-Finally, recap some of the conversational highlights.
Interviewers have short memories. A thank-you letter is your final chance to make yourself stand apart from all of the others who want the same position.
Are you looking forward to going on more interviews (and writing more thank-you notes)? Join Monster today. As a member, you can upload up to five versions of your resume. Recruiters search Monster every day for candidates to fill top jobs. You want to make sure you're out in front, ready to answer their calls.

Interest rates
We set the credit interest rate, which is variable (that is, it can change). We will give you two months' written notice if we reduce the credit interest rate. If we increase the credit interest rate on your account, we will make the change immediately. Interest is added to your account at the end of each calendar month.
The arranged overdraft interest rate can change and is currently as shown below.
Representative example18.38% EAR VariableNo arrangement fee£1,200 total amount of credit
The arranged overdraft interest rate is made up of two parts-the Bank of England Bank Rate (BOEBR) and an amount over the BOEBR (known as the 'margin'), which are both variable rates. We set the margin on an arranged overdraft. When the Bank of England Bank Rate changes, we change the rate at the beginning of the next business day after the Bank of England announces the change. We will give you two months' written notice before we increase the margin that applies to your account.
Monthly cap on unarranged overdraft charges
Each calendar month we will charge a maximum of three fees and service charges for using, or trying to use, an unarranged overdraft. We will charge any paid transaction or unpaid transaction fees first, up to the value of the monthly cap. If the total of these fees does not already meet the monthly cap, we will apply the unarranged overdraft usage fee if appropriate.
A range of charging scenarios is available to show you the charges you will be expected to pay if you try to spend money that isn't in your account and you haven't arranged an overdraft, or if you spend money that takes your account into unarranged overdraft.
Information on how to reduce or avoid fees, charges and interest is available. Follow the link to read our recommended steps.

Samsung has brought Android and Windows 8 (yes, Windows 8 and not Windows Phone 8) together in a single product. Introducing the ATIV Q, which is a convertible tablet with some interesting features. Announced yesterday in London, Samsung boasts the ATIV Q having a super-high resolution of 3200x1800 and a pixel density of 275ppi. Not bad for a 13-inch tablet.
We took a quick look at the tablet while attending the London event and in the above video, you can see the unique features that's on the table. These include the ability to rotate the display and use the device in 4 positions. A nice addition, which was explained by the assistant in the video, is the CPU (an Intel Core i5) is actually housed inside the stand, situated between the display and keyboard.
Stay tuned for more details to emerge regarding the Samsung ATIV Q.

"Disclaimer: All the opinions given, good or bad, are my own. The product is only used by me or someone in my immediate family. I received this product free of charge for an exchange for my honest review and they are 100% my own opinions. I received no compensation for this review."
Nikiani Inc, designs and produces premium lifestyle family and kids products.
I received a Brilliant Blanket Cabana Collection in Cabana Blue to review on my blog. It's a picnic approved water proof family size blanket with weighted corners. I love this because me and my son love to have picnics once in a blue moon at a park, and we couldn't use this for Mothers Day like we planned on using because it had a bit of a storm and it was really muddy and wet. I didn't want to risk it because it was heavy and I know it says waterproof but maybe like a bit of wetness but not a lot of wetness. I just didn't want to ruin a perfectly good product.
I like how big and roomy the blanket is because a family of three you usually have to bring 2 sets of blankets. I know this will come in handy for the 4th of July. I can't wait. The Family Size Blanket will fit up to 5 adults comfortably. I know this will come in handy for the beach days too not having to bring a big hot blanket to the beach is a relief. I like how they said in the description you don't have to hold down the corners with your belongings or shoes because it has that covered in this product. It has three smart layers made up of 100% cotton on top for softness, plush cushioning and waterproof underneath.
(picture from website)
Overall I think this is great for any family with children, great for almost all outdoor actives and then some. It also has a waterproof easy access pocket for your phone, keys & cash. It folds back up to a easy transport; shoulder strap so you can carry it anywhere you go. I couldn't be more happier and will soon get my own pictures when the weather clears up. My potbelly pig can also enjoy this as well when we take her out for adventures too.

First, I would like to thank you for visiting this website. In this page you will find out everything that you need to know to cure your hemorrhoid problem. So, if you are looking for how to get rid of hemorrhoids then you will find the answer here in this website.
Before revealing my proven strategy that will give you relief from hemorrhoid in just 36 hours, I want to tell you truth about myself…
Recently I came across a statistic that gave me shock… By the age of 50, one out of every two individuals will suffer from clinical hemorrhoid. Some may be asymptomatic (don't get symptoms) however others will be miserable.
I am not a doctor or scientist instead I am healthy and fit in my forties and I often like to read articles on health and wellness. However, two years back when I started getting serious derriere discomfort then this doesn't help me much.
The diagnosis from top-ranked clinic in my home town of Kokomo, IN was clinical hemorrhoid (primarily, internal hemorrhoid) and fissure (crack in the anal ring, often comes with infection).
Soon I learned diagnosed is one thing – treatment is completely other. I tried lot of different creams, ointment and lotions but nothing offers me long-term relief. I tried couple of dietary adjustments, which only give me temporary relief and that's all.
Top doctor told me the only long-term treatment of hemorrhoid is – Surgery. Doctor also told me surgery is painful and often required repeated surgery after few years. I was not happy at all.
Then last year, after whole 12 months of suffering I found an ad from a writer about 'Hemorrhoid No More'. Jessica Wright (the author of hemorrhoid no more) was certified nutritionist and former hemorrhoid suffer who discovered the right combination of Chinese herbs, natural foods, and supplement that gave her permanent relief from hemorrhoid.
Truly speaking the information, steps and treatment I received was like nothing I came across before. Jessica Wright is treating hemorrhoids since last twenty years. She claims that the treatment regimen she found was after lot of research and failures. The 5-Step Holistic Plan is designed in such a way that it compels the body to heal naturally.
So the bottom line is, if you are not suffering from hemorrhoid then you may not have idea about how painful the condition is. However, if you are suffering from hemorrhoid then you have find 'Hemorrhoid No More' different from anything you discovered online.
I took the gamble and it rewards me big time. There is no words for describing the happiness of living pain- and symptoms-free from the condition that can make life MISERABLE.

Before starting my guide let me share my story because it will give you great motivation.
My Story About How I Cure My Hemorrhoid:
Just like you I also suffered from hemorrhoid. My first experience with Hemorrhoid was really terrifying. Everything was working fine until Monday afternoon when I take short break for bath. It was really horrible to see bright red blood in my stool. After few days of inching and pain, I decided to search about it on the internet and when I entered "Blood in Stool" in Google I was shocked to see the word "CANCER".
This really filled my head with lots of debilitating and terrifying thoughts. I was really scared to find out the severity of my problem. I talked about my problem from my close friends but regardless of what they say my fear and embracement kept me away from seeking professional help. At one point I can't able to bear any more pain and finally decided to seek professional help.
Although I was relieved to find out it was NOT cancer but reports are not too comforting as well. Even I was taking medicines but still for the full year I keep on getting hemorrhoid regularly. Whenever I eat something spicy I get a flare up, even when I exercise intensely I get flare up. My condition is getting worst even I was taking medicines and following doctor's guideline.
In 2014, I decided to take a long journey to India where I quickly get involved in the beautiful culture and colorful festivals. Despite my doctor's warning I eat array of spicy foods. After a day or two I get severe flare up that makes me immobile for couple of days. My old school friend come to place where I was staying and he was shocked to see my condition. He didn't only listen to my problem but also took me to his grandfather who listen to my problem and give me herbal paste and asked me to keep using it until all symptoms disappear.
Although the herbal paste I got from my friend's grandfather helped me to get relief from the pain of hemorrhoids in 3 days but this raises my confidence on alternative treatment. After years of research and lots of trials and errors I finally able to eliminate hemorrhoid from my body.
If you also want to eliminate hemorrhoid permanently from your body then you have to follow step-by-step plan that is created by Jessica Wright. This 5-step plan not only worked for me in the past but it also help for numerous people and now they are living hemorrhoid-free life.
Ok let's start…
Part 1 – Basic Info about Hemorrhoid:
As most people already know Hemorrhoids (also known as piles) is extremely painful and embarrassing that no one want to experience. Hemorrhoids although seems to be embarrassing and no one talks about them but they are highly common especially in Western Society. Although doctors believe that there is easy cure available for Hemorrhoids in western medications but unfortunately these western medications are only design to heal the symptoms but they don't treat the real cause. That is why one time sufferers become chronic sufferer of this condition.
Hemorrhoids become bigger and painful if they left untreated and that is reason it is important to treat them as soon as possible. However, due to sensitive issue many people don't seek professional help until pain become unbearable for them.
According to research by National Institution of Heart Disease and Kidney it is found that around 75% Americans suffer from Hemorrhoid once in their life. So this proved that even people who look extremely fit can also be suffering from painful and embarrassing Hemorrhoids.
Research also found that due to excessive workload, stress and workout men are more likely to get affected with this condition as compare to women. Age also plays role and individuals with age above 50 are highly susceptible.
Part 1.1 – Types of Hemorrhoids:
There are mainly two different types of hemorrhoids.
Internal Hemorrhoids:
Internal Hemorrhoids are located within the lower rectum high enough to remain unseen. Since there are very few pain-sensing nerves in this region that is why they don't cause any pain and remain undetected.
However, the only indication of their existence can be bleeding, a prolapse or hemorrhoid getting big enough to come outside the anal sphincter. When these internal hemorrhoids become visible they are moist and different in color depending on the skin. These internal hemorrhoids can become much painful if they come in contact with pain-sensitive nerves.
External Hemorrhoid:
As name suggest, External Hemorrhoid is mostly found on the skin of anus and generally they are more painful than Internal Hemorrhoid. These external hemorrhoids can cause severe burning sensation and sufferer may get feeling of having an annoying obstruction in his anus.
The main indication of existence of these external hemorrhoids is blood in toilet bowl or on the toilet paper. These external hemorrhoids can also become 'thrombosed' hemorrhoid which is the condition when external hemorrhoid wall ruptures and blood clot forms. This creates significant pain and discomfort.
Part 1.2 – Primary and Secondary Causes of Hemorrhoids:
When you search for how to get rid of hemorrhoids then most probably you will get huge list of causes. However, in my research I discovered there are only 4 main causes of hemorrhoids.
Constipation is the leading cause of Hemorrhoid. However, many people don't take constipation seriously but if constipation remains untreated for longer period then it can quickly cause hemorrhoids or something more serious like immune system disorder, inflamed colons and many other health problems.
In order to make your body function properly then it is important for you to pass out stool 1-3 times a day. If waste stays in your body for more than 2 days then it can cause infection, lower back pain, hemorrhoids and other leading health problems.
It is really important for you to take action as soon as possible and treat symptoms to prevent hemorrhoids and other diseases that are mentioned above.
Obesity/Lack Of Exercise:
We can't count the number of diseases that are cause by Obesity and lack of exercise. Obesity is really dangerous for hemorrhoids as well because extra fat in abdomen and pelvis put extra pressure on pelvis veins resulting in unnecessary stress while passing stool.
Lack of exercise is another reason for hemorrhoids because lack of exercise (even normal activity) can slow down digestion system which make bowel to remain in intestine for longer period.
One cause is connected with other cause. If you don't eat proper foods then you will get constipation that leads to hemorrhoids. If you want to get rid of hemorrhoids then you have to fix the factor that actually causing hemorrhoid.
If your stool is hard and you feel difficulty in passing it then it means that your body needs fiber. Our western diet doesn't contain much food that are rich in fiber and that is reason constipation is very common in our society. Add plenty of fruits and vegetables that are rich in fiber to soften your stool and drink lots of water. Foods that are rich in fiber are: apple, beans, peas, berries, pears, broccoli and avocados.
Yogurt and Kefir are also very important foods that improve overall health condition because they contain probiotics that promote digestive system and strengthen immune system. Kefir also helps in reducing dehydration.
Whole grain foods are also one of the great resources of fiber and it is important to replace your refined grains with whole grain to improve your health and build strong immune system.
Stress can lead to many health diseases and hemorrhoid is one of them. Stress changes the hormonal balance in the body which results in blood vessels in veins to become inflamed and painful hemorrhoids.
Part 1.3 – Symptoms of Hemorrhoids:
Some common symptoms of Hemorrhoids are:
- Bright Red Blood in stool, paper or toilet bowel
- Itch in the Anus
- Pain during or after bowel movement
- Pain while sitting and standing for longer period
- Burning Feeling in the anus
- Swelling around the anus
Since these symptoms are also common in other ailment that is why it is important to get medical diagnosis and then start the treatment.
Summary of Part 1 'Basic Info about Hemorrhoid'
Hemorrhoids are really painful but it is important to medically confirm it before starting any treatment on them. If you are sure that you are having hemorrhoid then treat them as soon as possible because they become more and more severe as they grow.
If this information has helped you then don't forget to share it with your friends who are having hemorrhoids problem. Additionally, keep visiting this site because this is the complete guide for how to get rid of hemorrhoids and in the future I will share part two and three of this guide.
Part 2 – Get Relief From Hemorrhoids In Just 36 Hours
In second part of this Hemorrhoid Destroyer guide, you are going to learn some powerful methods that will give you relief from hemorrhoids in just 36 hours. There are many people who want to treat their hemorrhoids problem with the help of home remedies and that is the reason I created this section. Each and every home remedy I mentioned in this post is tested and proven so if you follow it then you get relief from hemorrhoid in 36 hours or less than that.
Keep in mind, instructions and remedies you will find in this section will only treat symptoms. However, in the next section we will discuss how to get rid of hemorrhoids and stop them from occurring again.
Here are some home remedies that give you relief in just 3 days…
Part 2.1 – Sitz Bath:
For those who don't know, Sitz Bath is one of the most effective and proven home remedy to provide instant relief from hemorrhoids. The idea behind this concept is to sit in warm/hot water for short period. This improves blood circulation in rectal region and promotes healing. For this home remedy you need only two things:
- Sitz Bath Seat or Plastic Bowel Seat (which should be big enough so you can sit comfortably)
- Warm Water
All you have to do is to put Sitz bath seat on your bowel seat and fill it with warm/hot water. Make sure you don't put too hot water as it can damage your skin. However, you have to keep changing water to keep it warm. Sit in the Sitz bath seat for 15-20 minutes. However, if you are using plastic bowel then you have to follow same procedure except you have to put plastic bowel seat on the floor and sit on it. This may feel awkward in the beginning but afterward you don't feel any difficulty.
Have Sitz Bath for two times a day and you will find great relief.
Part 2.2 – Alum Remedy:
You have probably heard the name of alum multiple times on internet. Alum is also known as potassium aluminum sulphate and potassium alum. This is easily available in market in crystal form. Alum is known for its astringent properties. Alum is chemical substance that is quickly dissolve in water and has little sweet taste.
The reason we use alum for hemorrhoid treatment is because of its astringent properties. Alum is proven to shrink hemorrhoid and stop anal bleeding. However, to use alum for the treatment of hemorrhoid we need to use it in powder form.
- All you have to do is to mix 2 tablespoons of powder alum in 5 cups of water.
- Mix it properly then allow it to settle for 2-3 hours
- Use clean cloth to dip in the solution and apply it in your anal region
You should apply the solution for 20-30 minutes on your hemorrhoid affected area. Additionally, you can add two tablespoons of this solution in water when using it for sitz bath. This works miracle for many and they get relief from hemorrhoids in 2-3 days.
Part 2.3 – Cold Treatment (Ice Packs)
Cold treatment method is completely opposite to the Sitz Bath because instead of hot water you are going to use ice packs in this method. It is proven that ice relieve pain, reduce swelling and itching of the affected area. When you apply ice to hemorrhoid-affected area then it will quickly numb the area and provide instant relief.
Many times, it is recommended to use Cold Treatment after Sitz Bath because warm water dilates the anal veins while ice contracts them. This helps in strengthen anal veins and more important get rid of hemorrhoids.
This is very simple but powerful treatment to provide instant relief from hemorrhoid. All you have to do is to take few pieces of ice and wrap it into a piece of cloth. Apply this into affected area for 15-20 minutes. Repeat this treatment 2 – 3 times a day and you will find great relief.
Part 2.4 – Calendula Compress:
This is one of the most effective hemorrhoid compresses. It is so easy that you don't need any professional help and you can prepare it by yourself. This Calendula compress can eliminate pain, itching and burning in 2-3 days. Additionally, it needs only few ingredients that are:
- Around 3 Cups of water
- 1 Tablespoon of peppermint leaf
- 1 Tablespoon of crushed calendula
- 1 Tablespoon of goldenseal powder
- 1/2 cup of witch-hazel
Once you have all ingredients then you have to boil all herbs and allow them to cool for 15-20 minutes. Once the mixture is cool down then you have to add 1/2 cup of witch-hazel. After mixing it properly, use piece of clean cloth, soak it in liquid and rinse the extra before applying it on your hemorrhoids. Repeat this procedure for thrice a day and within 36 hours you will notice how quickly your hemorrhoid disappears.
Part 2.5 – Cranberry Compress:
This is another very powerful compress for treating hemorrhoid. Similar to Calendula Compress, Cranberry Compress is very easy to prepare however, you need to apply it on your hemorrhoid area for about an hour.
To prepare Cranberry Compress, all you have to do is to wrap 5 tablespoon of blended cranberries into cheesecloth and apply it to your anus area. You have to apply it for about an hour so it is good idea to do something like watching TV or movie while applying this treatment.
It is important to keep in mind that Cranberry Compress can leave stains on clothes and that is why use dark color trouser or something old/unnecessary.
Part 2.6 – Onion And Garlic Treatment:
Everyone knows that the combination of Onion and Garlic is proven to work for the treatment of hemorrhoid. This is because onion and garlic fights bacteria, reduce inflammation and repair swollen veins. To apply this treatment all you need is:
- A clove of garlic
- A small piece of onion (cut it into the size of garlic clove)
Just before going to sleep, all you have to do is to insert garlic and onion into your rectum and go to sleep. If you are feeling uncomfortable then cut garlic and onion piece into half. Don't worry, piece of garlic and onion will fall out during regular bowel movement.
Garlic is known to reinforce blood vessels, fight bacteria and repair damage wall of blood vessels. Repeat this treatment for 2-3 times in a week. Remember to don't apply this treatment if you are having bleeding hemorrhoid.
Part 2.7 – Apple Cider Vinegar:
Apple Cider Vinegar is known for its great healing properties. Many people are using Apple Cider Vinegar since many years for the treatment of internal and external hemorrhoids. Apple Cider Vinegar reduces swelling and itching for both internal and external hemorrhoid. However, it is recommended to purchase unfiltered and unpasteurized Apple Cider Vinegar because it is more effective.
For External Hemorrhoid – If you are suffering from external hemorrhoid then you have to first clean anal region then dip a piece of cotton ball into apple cider vinegar and apply it on hemorrhoid affected area. Repeat this treatment for 3 times a day and after 3 days you will see discomfort disappears.
For Internal Hemorrhoid – If you are suffering from internal hemorrhoid then you have to mix one tablespoon of vinegar into a glass of water and drink it two times a day. You can also add honey or maple syrup to lessen the taste of vinegar.
Summary of Part 2 'Get Relief From Hemorrhoids In Just 36 Hours'
I believe you will get quick relief from hemorrhoid by using these seven different treatments. It is important to keep in mind that these treatments cure your hemorrhoid symptoms but if you want to get rid of hemorrhoids permanently then you have to follow 5-step treatment plan that is created by Jessica Wright for all the users of Hemorrhoid No More. I can't share these steps for obvious reason :‑(

BEIJING (Reuters) - Sinopec Corp's (0386.HK) Tianjin Petrochemical Corp has shut a condensate splitter for an indefinite period after a connected pipeline was found corroded during a safety inspection, a company source said on Tuesday.
The 1.2 million tonne-per-year (or about 30,000 barrels per day) facility was taken offline in April after Sinopec conducted a company-wide inspection of pipelines following a deadly explosion in Qingdao late last year.
"The pipeline that supplies condensate is very old, probably more than 20 years. Bad corrosions were found," said the source with direct knowledge of the matter, who requested anonymity as he is not authorised to speak to media.
It may take a year or two to build another one, and there is no other pipeline available to replace it, the source added.
Condensate splitters process condensate, a very light crude oil, into naphtha, which is commonly used as feedstock for ethylene, a key building block for petrochemicals.
The Tianjin plant, near Beijing, operates a total of 1.2 million-tpy ethylene capacity and a 250,000-bpd refinery.
After the shutdown, Sinopec Tianjin has switched to using more domestically produced naphtha, as well as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to make ethylene.
It previously imported condensate from suppliers such as Australia and Iran.

text: Students market custom Archangel skis and snowboards News Home 01.09.15 By: Mark Tarnacki Student product-promoter Philip Holton '15, left, and designer Nate Taylor '16, to the right of Holton, pitch their product designs on campus recently. Popular images in religious art of the sword-wielding and devil-stomping Archangel Saint Michael suggest a guy who might know a thing or two about "shredding." That was the thinking of Nate Taylor '16, a Saint Michael's College business and art major from Farmington CT, in November when he submitted his Photoshop-rendered original design featuring a classic Archangel image for possible use on a line of personalized snowboards and skis. He was responding to an email from Philip Holton '15, of Nashua, NH, a leader of Saint Michael's popular campus ski and snowboard club, informally called "ShredMC." Holton recently had plugged in through a pal with Shelburne-based entrepreneur Jason Levinthal's test of a market for college-themed skis and snowboards and was seeking a read on potential designs and customers on campus. He says Taylor's design instantly stood out from other submissions and soon the two decided to collaborate on trying to sell the idea to fellow students. To ski/snowboard enthusiasts the world over, "shredding" suggests the sweet sound of a hard carve in the snow, but also a certain attitude. Phil says he took one look at the Archangel in Nate's design and figured it had the pop, power and pizzazz to stir broad student interest. In the classic Saint Michael image, he saw a figure with an extreme and all-in vibe likely to resonate in the mountains, particularly with students wanting to represent a college bearing the Archangel's name. Levinthal, a ski business entrepreneur rooted in Vermont, founded the popular ski brand Line before leaving in 2014 to create a new brand called J Skis. One of Holton's pals at a nearby college met Levinthal by chance at an area ski resort last year and the resulting association developed into an internship for that student, who at his mentor's urging, decided to take the idea to ski/snowboard clubs at area colleges. Holton liked the concept, and so became the Saint Michael's contact as a club officer and friend of the intern. "Jason Levinthal had been telling my friend about his idea to release another company called Customboards.co, and local colleges seemed like the best place to test the ideas," Holton said. "Jason basically told him to 'see how far you can take it,' which is what I've been trying to do here." Before Christmas break, Holton and Taylor set up a table in Alliot Student Center lobby and started asking passing students and friends what they thought of the catchy design for both snowboards and skis – a design that also incorporates a sort of slope-side "Ten Commandments" that were brainstormed by club members at a meeting. Those "Commandments," proclaimed in archaic-style lettering in the design, are: Send it Keep it buttery Never be afraid to hike it Hug the tree line Always tip your driver Keep a homie close always Make every run count No whining on the mountain Call your drop Shred Holton and Taylor say initial response has been encouraging with close to 50 people already showing some interest before Christmas break when they anticipated some sales as gifts. They'll be collecting orders until January 13, and will be completing those orders through their Facebook page, phone, email and Instagram @shred_mc. Holton and Taylor also will be around campus to collect orders and hand out forms, and they plan to send alumni order forms via email. "From what I've heard, our school is doing the best by far in getting orders of all the area colleges," Holton said. "We're hoping to get wholesale pricing in bulk, so the more people we have, the cheaper it will be." He said the price now for the products is $330 for a snowboard and $420 for skis. "That's already incredibly cheap," he says, compared with comparable good-quality custom products he's seen. With between 200 and 300 ShredMC club members at Saint Michael's -- it's the largest student club by far on campus -- they see strong market potential. Taylor says he took graphic design art classes at Saint Michael's that helped him create and execute the Archangel design. He pointed out that the bottoms of the boards and skis also feature a colorful and playful design evocative of stained glass, in keeping with the saint theme. Holton sees wider and longer-term opportunities from what both students consider a valuable business experience. "One thought was even to sell posters with the graphics for walls in dorms if somebody can't afford the board," he said. "My hope is that this will take off in the next couple years and that everyone in the club will want to keep doing it as a legacy-type thing, maybe with different designs for different years."

It's always hard to think of something to do that's crafty for a guy. . . but I was able to come up with a couple freezer paper stencil ideas for my father-in-law and my brother-in-law.
This one was for my father-in-law's 60th birthday . . . I drew an abacus and cut it with my cricut on freezer paper. The orange paint looks quite neon in the picture but I promise it wasn't that bright.

This week at Infections Landscapes, I will cover the last of the nematode infections in this extended helminth series. Lymphatic filariasis, which includes the advanced form, elephantiasis (often incorrectly referred to as elephantitis), causes extensive disability in several tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. Like onchocerciasis, lymphatic filariasis is caused by filarial worms and is vector-borne.
The Worm. Lymphatic filariasis is caused primarily by three main helminth species in the Onchocercidae family of nematodes: Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori. Approximately 90% of infections are caused by W. bancrofti, while most of the remaining infections are caused by B. malayi (~9%) and B. timori (~1%). Humans are the reservoir for W. bancrofti, while non-human hosts serve as reservoirs for Brugia species, and thus infections with the latter result from zoonotic transmission.
In the human host, the adult worms concentrate in the vessels and nodes of the lymphatic system. Gravid females release motile sheathed microfilariae, which migrate to the peripheral circulation. It takes approximately 6 to 12 months from initial infection to the time when the microfilariae begin to appear in the periphery. These peripheral microfilariae exhibit a fascinating circadian rhythm, wherein they migrate at night into the peripheral blood via the circulation, returning to the arterioles in the lungs during the day. This migration to the periphery aids in the transmission of the microfilariae to the vectors, which are primarily, though not exclusively, night-biting mosquito species. After the microfilariae are ingested by the mosquito, the sheath is lost and they migrate out of the mosquito stomach and into the flight muscle tissues of the thorax. At this loaction, the microfilariae will molt three times, developing into the infectious 3rd stage larvae (L3) after approximately 10 to 20 days. The exact time required is dependent on the density of infection in the mosquito and the local climate conditions at the time of development. Infectious L3 larvae migrate to the proboscis of the mosquito. The larvae are not directly injected into the human host by the mosquito, but rather are deposited on the skin and migrate into the bite wound. The L3 larvae then migrate through subcutaneous tissues to gain the lymphatic system, where they will develop into adults over the course of approximately 1 year. Male and female adults will mate soon after reaching maturity and gravid females subsequently release their motile microfilariae. The following graphic developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) nicely depicts the life cycle of the nematodes that cause lymphatic filariasis:
Culex quiquefasciatus is the most important Culex mosquito vector for lymphatic filariasis. This Culex species is highly anthropophilic, and so prefers to take its blood meals from humans, unlike other Culex vectors that are ornithophilic (e.g. Culex pipiens pipiens). This preference for humans, and stagnant water around human habitation for larval development, make this mosquito's ecology very similar to Aedes aegypti, which is another prominent disease vector for humans. C. quiquefasciatus is responsible for a substantive burden of lymphatic filariasis in South Asia.
Anopheles Mosquitoes
Anopheline mosquitoes are quite heterogeneous and so exhibit tremendous differences across species in their preference of vertebrate hosts, biting and resting behavior, and selection of sites for oviposition.
Of course, the anopheline mosquitoes require the same transition through four stages of development to complete the life cycle. Here is a comparison between three mosquito genera, with Anopheles on the far left. All four stages of the life cycle are depicted for each genus:
Notice the adult mosquitoes in the picture above. One of the distinguishing features of anopheline mosquitoes is the roughly 45 degree angle their abdomen forms with respect to the surface on which they land. This is unique to Anopheles and can be used to identify the mosquito. Keep in mind however that after taking a blood meal the abdomen will be heavy and weighed down form the extra mass, and so will likely no longer form this distinguishing 45 degree angle.
Most anophelines feed during the night, but some will also feed during the dusky hours of morning and evening. As with with C. quinquefasciatus, the night biting preference of anophelines means that humans are at greatest risk of infection during sleep, when we are at our most vulnerable. Some anopheline species are zoophilic, while other species are anthropophilic. Some anopheline mosquitoes are endophagic, prefering to take their blood meal indoors. Others are exophagic, meaning they prefer to take the blood meal outside. Another important distinction among species is determined by what they do after they take their blood meal. Adding further heterogeneity to this genus, some anopheline species are endophilic rest-ers, meaning they prefer to rest inside, while others are exophilic, which means they prefer to rest outside. This aspect of mosquito behavior is very important for mosquito control efforts, which may include residual spraying and thus would need to target inside or outside the home depending on the resting preference.
Most species of Anopheles mosquitoes prefer to lay their eggs in clean water, which is quite different to the Culex and Aedes species. While this helps to characterize anopheline ecology somewhat, there can still be great differences between individual Anopheles species with respect to their water preferences for oviposition. Here is a depiction of some different potential breeding sites published in: Keating J, Macintyre K, Mbogo CM, Githure JI, Beier JC. Characterization of potential larval habitats for Anopheles mosquitoes in relation to urban land-use in Malindi, Kenya. Int J Health Geogr. 2004 May 4;3(1):9. (PMID: 15125778)
Let's talk a little more specifically about water preference. For example, Anopheles gambiae one of the most important vectors for transmitting lymphatic filariasis in sub-Saharan Africa. It prefers small sunlit pools, and it's natural habitat is tropical forest. In natural, undisturbed habitat, this mosquito is limited in abundance by the distribution of breaks in the tree canopy that allow the sun to reach the forest floor. However, when habitat is disturbed, due to deforestation or agriculture, for example, much larger areas of land cover become exposed. In this situation any pools of collected rainwater can receive direct sunlight and provide ideal and abundant breeding for A. gambiae. Such habitat disturbances often also coincide with increased human proximity, and so more and more people come into greater contact with more and more of this efficient vector of W. bancrofti. Here are a few CDC pictures of some diverse land cover that A. gambiae can make use of:
Aedes Mosquitoes
A. aegypti mosquitoes have a very particular preference for the water environment it selects for laying its eggs. It likes SMALL containers that collect rainwater. And the mechanics work as follows. This mosquito does not lay its eggs either in the water or on the surface of the water, as most other species do. Instead, A. aegypti lays its eggs above the water on the interior wall of the vessel containing the water so that when the water vessel is refilled, from the water line at which the mosquito laid its eggs to the lip of the vessel, the eggs will have enough time to complete their developmental cycle to adulthood before evaporation depletes the water source. A truly incredible evolutionary adaptation.
While, A. aegypti is a vector of lesser importance for W. bancrofti across southeast Asia, Aedes polynesiensis is a very important vector of W. bancrofti in the South Pacific Islands of Polynesia, and shares similar characteristics with A. aegypti.

What is Space for Conscious Living?
After nearly 30 years in the mental health profession, I began to hear a call to work with people in a different way. Through a 3-year discernment process including consultation with my own coach and teacher, I realized that my personal, professional and spiritual paths were leading me to serve as a guide and teacher for individuals seeking their own personal and spiritual transformation.
The name of my practice evolved as I began to describe to others what I felt called to offer – a collaborative process through which people can expand their internal and external space in which they can become more conscious of what is happening around and within them so they can intentionally integrate this awareness into their way of living.
As I've seen in my own life, this work leads us to a life infused with purpose, meaning, joy, wisdom, compassion and a sense of authentic congruence between who we are and how we show up in both our personal and professional lives.
The questions which kept occurring to me during my discernment period are the same ones I now ask others to consider:
• Are you being called to awaken to a more conscious and intentional way of living?
• Does your heart long to connect more deeply with your Essential Self, others and the greater Source of life?
• Do you wish to discover your unique gifts and find ways to share them in the world?
If so, Space for Conscious Living may be calling you.

I have been doing something fun lately: volunteering at harvested, which is the pop-up lunch cafe run by OzHarvest in a donated cafe space in Pyrmont, Sydney. The cafe is the first of its kind in Australia, as all the meals are made from food rescued from landfill. As I've mentioned before, OzHarvest is a food rescue organisation which collects excess food from restaurants, supermarkets, catered events, farmers etc and brings it to people in need. The purpose of the cafe is to raise awareness of the issues around food waste, and hopefully inspire people to be more mindful when shopping for, using and cooking with their food.
My role at the cafe is the floor manager (photographer and "door bitch") and I spend a lot of my time talking to people about OzHarvest, the concept behind the cafe and food waste. Some of the facts about food waste in Australia, and globally, are staggering. Australians throw out one in five shopping bags, yet two million people rely on food relief in this country each year. About one third of the food produced globally for human consumption each year is lost or wasted, which has knock-on effects for our limited natural resources and the environment. This costs Australia around $10 billion each year.
I also talk to people about the food used in the meals we serve (which are, by the way, amazing); the ingredients used are not past their use by date or rotten, but are of high quality and have been donated because they are in oversupply, blemished or considered imperfect due to their size or shape. Unlike other cafes, the chef (head chef Trav Harvey with Mirinda Boaz-Cole) doesn't order in specific food, but relies on what OzHarvest receives each week and develops the menu, usually on a day or two's notice, around that week's "harvest". The menu is largely gluten free and vegetarian, although there is usually at least one meat or seafood dish. When busy, we occasionally run out of menu items, and need to adapt the menu for what we have left in stock. The process is therefore a creative one, and the menu reflects this; whatever the theme or star ingredient, it is delicious, fresh and nourishing. The quality of the meals highlights just how crazy-bad all the waste is.
So far, we've had Mexican (we were donated a large amount of tortillas), Middle Eastern (donated burgul, pumpkin & cherries in quantity), Italian (buffalo mozzarella, pears, tomatoes and olive oil), Mediterranean (lemon, green beans), Indian (goat, potatoes, cashews) and Spanish (truffles, fennel, ricotta, orange) themed menus, which are all based on a sharing plate concept. Various pickles, relishes, marinades and dried fruit and/or vegetables, made from rescued produce, are used to finish the meals and create texture and add pops of flavour. For example, some of the most popular menu items so far have been roasted Brussels sprouts with broccoli, crisped onions and toasted almond dressing; goats cheese and smoked zucchini croquette with beetroot aioli; poached chicken with estofado sauce of almonds, olives and capers; pumpkin and handmade ricotta tortellini with burnt butter and amaretti; potato balls with beetroot ketchup; and whipped chocolate ricotta with macaroons, candied orange rind and berry dust.
The cafe has performed well; we have a lot of repeat customers who work nearby, plus other people who have heard the message and have come to check it out. The general reaction to the menu has been very positive; everyone is amazed at the quality of meals (and even more so that it is made out of rescued food). It has been an interesting time for me as well, as one of the reasons I decided to help out at the cafe (in addition to my beliefs on sustainability with food and our environment) was to further explore my lingering fascination with food. The jury is still out on that one, but it is something I will be mulling over the next month or so whilst I am in Amsterdam (yes, I'm heading back over next week for work – excited!). What I have learnt however is how much I am motivated by people: we have a great team of volunteers at harvested, who are all hard working, dedicated and generous people, which makes everything lots of fun (thanks guys!!).
While I'd like to think I've always been fairly waste conscious, from both an environmental and cost perspective, talking about food waste has sharpened my focus as of late. I've been making my vegetable stock (using all the bits and pieces of vegetables and parmesan rinds), pestos (from wilted herbs, spinach and/or beetroot), and roasting up less than pretty looking veggies and turning them into soup. For this week's recipe, in the spirit of food waste reduction, I've made a dressing out of carrot top greens, an edible part of the vegetable which is often discarded, and used lemon rind to flavour the rice. The greens have been combined with basil, parsley (which can be replaced whatever other herbs you have lying around) and tahini, and are served on top of nutty black rice with sweet roasted, spiced pumpkin and dukkah, and pops of fresh peas. This recipe serves two adults, and you will have plenty of dressing left over – it can be used on pasta, vegetables or the like.
If you're interested in learning more practical ways to reduce food waste, please have a look at these links:
- Ten tips to avoid food waste
- Ten food scraps you are probably throwing away
- Think Eat Save campaign.
And we'd love it if you stopped by harvested: its open for lunch Tuesdays and Wednesdays until 22 July 2015, 11.30am-2.30pm, and is $15pp for lunch (excl dessert). OzHarvest is also running its annual "ThinkEatSave" event in Martin Place on 27 July 2015 where you can get a free lunch (with 5000 others) in the spirit of raising awareness about food waste.
- 1 small Japanese pumpkin, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 cup black rice, rinsed until water runs clear
- Rind of one lemon, peeled in strips (use a vegetable peeler)
- A handful of fresh green peas (frozen are also fine)
- A couple of tablespoons of dukkah (for serving)
- Extra virgin olive oil, for cooking
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 bunch of carrot top leaves from bunch of carrots (around 60g), washed well
- 1/4 bunch of basil (around 15g)
- 1/4 bunch of flat leaf parsley (around 15g)
- 1 garlic clove
- 4 tablespoons tahini paste
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a large baking tray, add the pumpkin and sprinkle half a teaspoon of ground cumin, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, a splash of olive oil and a couple of grinds of salt and pepper. Roast in oven for 40-45 minutes until soft.
- Meanwhile, prepare the black rice: in a small saucepan, add a splash of olive oil, half a teaspoon of ground cumin and the lemon peel strips. Stir for a minute or two and then add the black rice, and give it another stir for 2-3 minutes until coated. Add two cups of water, bring to the boil and then let simmer for 25 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside for 10 minutes. Remove lemon peel from rice.
- In a blender or food processor, add the carrot top leaves, basil, parsley, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, sesame oil, salt and 3 tablespoons of water and blend for a couple of minutes until smooth. Taste and season with salt, tahini or lemon juice, as necessary.
- Bring water in a small saucepan to boil, add the green peas and blanch for 2-3 minutes until just cooked. Remove from the pan and rinse in cold water to stop them cooking.
- Spoon the rice onto a plate, add a couple of pieces of pumpkin, spoon over a couple of tablespoons of the dressing, sprinkle on the peas and some dukkah.
