The Upside to Ways To Use Fairy Lights And Make Your Bedroom Look Magical
Possessing the lights be part of your outdoor pool space provides you with an enchanting feel that's also magical and conventional. Christmas lights are always an amazing means to enter the holiday spirit. They are essentially one of the best parts of the holiday season. If you feel crafty then using Christmas string lights as a piece of your headboard decor is the best way to go.
You might need to incorporate more lighting in your patio space. Actually, lighting is a facet of your home that interior designer Julia Kendell once said should be the essential number one rule to take into account before you even begin redecorating. Highlighting Good lighting is essential to any interior, but since the winter evenings draw in it gets even more effective.
Don't hesitate to comment below in the event you've used fairy lights in an innovative way that you'd love to share. Fairy lights are the simplest and best method of brightening up any portion of your dwelling. They are a great way to transform the look of your home. They can be battery operated and you may want to even consider getting the ones on a timer so that they only stay on for a certain period of time so you don't forget to turn them off! They look magical and hence the name given to them. String lights make an ambiance that's warm, cozy and even romantic, they really help to decide on a mood and they're so many methods to decorate with them.
The lights aren't powerful enough to be disturbing, but subtle and lovely, ideal for the undertaking. Then they will really stand out. In a tiny room, for instance, wall-hung lights will often be preferable to table lamps as you might not have the space for bedside tables. As mentioned,, make certain you use wireless lights as you don't want tacky plugs coming from the jars. Geometric lights are offered in various shapes and colors making it simple that you choose what you like for your outdoor decoration. The newest LED lights provide great technological features like timers and remote controls, making setting the mood even simpler.
Things You Won't Like About Ways To Use Fairy Lights And Make Your Bedroom Look Magical and Things You Will
Huge spaces can be challenging to fill, and it can be a daunting job. Flexibility For practical and aesthetic reasons, different spaces need various degrees of light, so it's vital to consider what the space is going to be used for. The living room with a well-equipped traditional library and a fireplace is the ideal place to enjoy Christmas with family members and friends. Your bedroom should be somewhere to relax, so make certain your lighting scheme reflects that.
You may create one particular sign with numerous directions on, or alternatively, create single arrows and put them around your home and garden. Something as easy as a vertical field of string lights can create the effect you require. `You ideally wish to have a variety of lighting options in a room, which may be used differently based on the period of day or year,' advises Sue. You may have a mixture of sofas and chairs. It's simple to do, but the result is super cool. There's much evidence of fairy lore regarding witchcraft.

When time is tight but you don't want to rely on frozen dinners or take out, spend a few minutes early in the day chopping and preparing vegetables for a hearty and delicious slow cooker vegetable stew that will be waiting for you when you return home. Although a meatless stew, there is some lean protein in the form of white beans.
Chock full of vegetables, including carrots, butternut squash, and mushrooms, this is a hearty and nutritious stew that is the perfect comfort food for vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. Serve with some crusty bread or whole grain rolls.
- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
- 1 medium onion (chopped)
- 2 ribs celery (chopped)
- 2 large carrots (cut into thick slices)
- 1 small butternut squash (peeled, deseeded, and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks)
- 2 medium leeks (white parts only, sliced)
- 1 (8-ounce) pack sliced mushrooms
- 1/2 pound small white potatoes, left whole
- 1 (15-ounce) can lower-sodium white beans
- 3/4 cup vegetable broth
- 1 (15-ounce) can fire-roasted crushed tomatoes (such as Muir Glen brand)
- 1 bay leaf
Steps to Make It
Gather the ingredients.
Layer garlic and vegetables in a 4- to 5-quart slow cooker.
Add beans, broth, tomatoes, and bay leaf.
Heat on low for 5 to 7 hours.
Serve and enjoy!
- If you can't find the tiny white potatoes, you can cut larger white potatoes into smaller pieces. You can also use small yellow or fingerling potatoes instead of white. Almost any type of white bean will work well in this recipe, from navy beans to great northern beans to cannellini beans. And to make some of the prep faster, consider purchasing the butternut squash already peeled and cubed.
- If you need to put this stew together quickly in the morning, do all of the chopping the night before (except for potatoes if you are cutting them) and store the vegetables in a large zip-top bag or airtight container in the refrigerator overnight.
Recipe Variations
- To give the stew another level of flavor, feel free to add some dried herbs at the beginning and/or fresh herbs at the end of cooking time. Dried thyme and tarragon and chopped fresh parsley would all work well. The fire-roasted tomatoes add a little bit of a smokey taste, but if you can't find them (or don't care for them), you can use plain crushed tomatoes in their place.
- All of the vegetables in this recipe make for a rich and filling stew, but feel free to swap out or add other vegetables you may like, such as cauliflower, zucchini, peas, green beans, and bell peppers. You can even toss in some spinach close to when the stew is done.
- Make this vegetable stew a special dish by adding some drop biscuits to the top. You can use biscuit mix or a homemade recipe, and then simply drop spoonfuls on the stew before the last 20 minutes of cooking time.

Drafted by representatives with different legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, the Declaration was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on December 10, 1948 (General Assembly resolution 217 A) as a common standard of achievements for all peoples and all nations. It sets out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected and it has been translated into over 500 languages.

Excellent Tips And Tricks For Web Design Success
It is tempting to go all out and think that you can be a professional in web design. On the other hand, few actually invest the time in learning what success requires, and they're the ones yielding the fruits. Apply what you have learned from this article so that you too can profit from this area.
If you're designing a website, you need to look at your website in multiple browsers. If you just check it from you personal computer, what you see may be vastly different from what others see. Do research on the various browsers in use, and design your website accordingly. You may also want to view your site using a different computer operating system to make sure that everything is compatible whether they are using Windows, Mac, or Linux.
It's imperative that you include a tagline somewhere that will be very noticeable on your website. Using a tagline simply means that you will need to come up with a quick statement that lets visitors know what your site is all about. Use a clear line to keep the visitors on your website.
Go easy on the graphics in your website creation. Although graphics are necessary make your site project a professional, well-designed and cohesive look, having too many can make it look cluttered. You need to not use graphics to decorate things, you need to be sure they're making your site better. Having the right amount of graphics that does not impede on the overall website design is key to how well the site looks.
Make your content compelling. A great looking site is no good if it has bland, unoriginal content. A website that provides information that is both, useful and updated, will be the most effective. Readers will find information they find helpful, which will cause them to return in the future.
Do not put pop-up windows on your site. They may seem helpful, but they are seen as more annoying by visitors than not. It's likely that many of your visitors can't even see them due to browser settings, so keep them happy and stick to one window at a time.
Text Content
Include text content on your link page. When a link uses text content, it is easy for the visitor to see and understand where they are going. If you have links that don't specify where it takes you, then someone could mistakenly click it by using a keyboard shortcut.
Make sure your site loads quickly through optimization techniques. Visitors won't wait around forever for pages to load. Do your best to reduce graphics, scripts, and Flash.
It is a good idea to have an "About Us" page on your site. Many websites that you see will have boring pages for this area. Try to write this content in an entertaining way. Provide some insight about your own story. How did you get inspiration? What are your goals? What led you to website creation?
You now know what it takes to design a good website, as well as how to make a profit doing it. Whether your profits are from designing for clients or maintaining your own website, web design is an excellent source of income.

• Some containers do not have medical equipment while the consumables medicines had expired.
• MPS ask EACC to release finding on the investigation they carried out on the containers, imported from China.
Some medical equipment in the Sh800 million mobile clinics at the NYS Miritini Centre may have been vandalised, MPs claim.
Some containers do not have medical equipment while the consumables have expired.
On Thursday, Members of the National Assembly Committee on Health asked the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission to release findings of the investigation they carried out on the containers, imported from China.
In a four-hour meeting with Ministry of Health officials at Miritini, the MPs said they were disappointed that the Health Ministry could not produce the delivery invoice from the supplier.
"We need to get all the documentation of this contract, particularly the delivery invoice. We want to find out if indeed what was in the contract is what was delivered here," said the Health Commitee vice chair Swarup Mishra.
Mishra, who is also the Kesses MP, said they inspected about 60 of the 99 containers.
"Some of them are vandalised, some have empty equipment boxes, major medical equipment could not be found. All consumables have expired," said Mishra.
Stephen Mule, MP Matungulu, said it is shameful that the supplier was paid Sh800 million but has failed to deliver the containers to the final destinations.
"The entire contract was Sh1 billion. The contractor was paid Sh800 million paid upfront. The contract was supply, deliver and install, but as you can all see these containers have been here for the past three years," said Mule.
He said the Ministry of Health asked for an additional Sh600 million to buy for consumables and pay personnel who will work at the containers. He said they will not approve that budget.
"We cannot continue funding a bottomless pit," said Mule.
Ndhiwa MP Martin Owino said they are going to write a thorough report on what they found at Miritini and action should be taken.
"We are going to write a thorough report for action should be taken. We feel that EACC did a shoddy job when they were investigating this. Where is there report?" posed Owino.

Kemi Olunloyo has tagged those who call Davido's girlfriend, Chioma a chef as illiterates and said reasons why she should stopped being referred to as one.
According to Kemi Olunloyo, Chioma is not a chef, a title she wanted against using lovely because she is just an aspiring chef.
She wrote:
David Adeleke's girlfriend Chioma is NOT a chef! She calls herself that. She is a self acclaimed aspiring chef. Don't use titles loosely. A chef is a trained professional cook who is proficient in all aspects of food preparation, often focusing on a particular cuisine. It's like when @pulsenigeria247 called me "self acclaimed Journalist" and had to apologise for it."
Kemi Olunloyo continued:
"I actually SAT IN A CLASSROOM. The same with #LindaIkeji with her honorary degrees. She is not really supposed to be calling herself "Dr" as she did not sit in a classroom which is like my academic degree of Dr of Pharmacy #DrKOO #hnnfood #hnnamebo #KemiOlunloyo "

Your tongue helps you speak and allows you to taste your food. But that's not all it's good for. During your teeth cleaning, your hygienist and dentist pay attention to the condition of your tongue. It can give them clues about your oral health and, to a degree, your overall health.
Let's Talk About Your Tongue
Here are some ways that the appearance of your tongue can point to health issues you need to address:
Your tongue is coated in white.
Some antibiotics, and certain other conditions, can cause the yeast that is naturally present in your mouth to grow beyond normal proportions. This is called thrush, and it can be painful and can also decrease your ability to taste. It is common in kids, people with uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune diseases, chemotherapy patients, and seniors. If you think you have thrush, talk with your dentist or physician, as it can't be treated with over-the-counter medications.
Your tongue is bright red.
Vitamin B12 and iron are required for the normal development of the papillae on your tongue. If you are deficient in vitamin B12 or iron, your tongue may fail to develop the normal papillae and can become smooth, red, and shiny. You may experience pain when you drink hot beverages or eat spicy foods. Vitamin supplements, as directed by your doctor or dentist can help.
Your tongue has red sores or white patches that don't heal.
If during your teeth cleaning and exam your dental team notices irritations that you say don't seem to heal the way a canker sore would, they will encourage you to see your doctor. There can be many causes of sores — some more serious than others — so you want to be sure you know what you're dealing with.
Your tongue has wrinkles.
The "cracks" that some people have on their tongue are normal. However, they can harbor bacteria that can lead to an infection if you don't keep them clean. Be sure that when you brush your teeth, you brush your tongue as well.
Your Teeth Cleaning is an Important Part of Your Overall Healthcare
Your regular teeth cleaning at your dentist does more than protect your oral health. It can provide important information on your overall health as well. To make an appointment with Dr. Steinbach or Dr. Van Gorden, call 970-279-5647. Or request an appointment online now!

It's allowing yourself to feel who we are. It's the release of desires. It's being in harmony with yourself. It is a sense of belonging to the world and the world to us.
Some time ago I stopped feeling guilty for having a great life.
Yoga classes, which I came across out of curiosity, led me to the Himalayas for a yoga teacher's course after few years. My first lonely journey took place at a time when I truly needed to believe that I would manage my life on my own. Taking care of yourself is our
duty and great privilege of a free man. You have to pause for a second to be able to hear yourself. It is best to do it on a foreign land, among strangers, without a distorting mirror of ourselves, without those reflections, that like a matrix, were saved as how other people see us, often those closest to us.
This year, practicing in Bali, surrounded by wildlife, birds singing, by people from different corners of the world, complete strangers and yet so very close to me, I was touched by the thought that a few years earlier I would've rebuked myself for the idea of such a trip.
Realizing your passions is an uncountable value. I believe that our greatest needs are hidden deepest, sometimes we do not even dare to think about what we would really like to do and where we would like to be.
After some time, we don't need to confirm our value in the eyes of others anymore. Acceptance of who we are appears when we start living in harmony with ourselves, and the whole world, like a pebble, can be closed in our hand.
I hope that I will experience this sublime feeling of belonging to the world more than once in beautiful and distant places.
However, the real and the most important journey of mine is my daily practice.
Ashtanga Yoga has stolen my heart and soul and although so demanding, it is very repayable. In this system, we practice six days a week, preferably in the morning, when the mind is still asleep. We start the "journey" with the first series of Ashtangi – Chikitsa yoga, which means yoga therapy. It emphasizes cleansing and general strengthening of the body. Days, months, years pass, we improve in asanas and temper our ego. It is said that injuries on the mat are the best teacher, because yoga is a path, not a goal. Each inhale, every exhale seems to be the same, yet completely different … focus on being here and now. Ashtanga is a combination of male strength and feminine grace, interwoven elements, and we strive to balance these two aspects.
We never know when exactly our life changes. However, after some time of regular practice, our worldview changes, horizons broaden, we hold our head more confidently , we hold it higher, the heart has more space and is open to new experiences, we are also more compassionate. We can do MORE !!!

Would be interesting to overlay a map with the states H.R.C. carried in most recent election. I am betting on a significant correspondence with states shaded on this map!?!??!
There is nearly 100% correspondence in the 2 maps you mentioned. The only miss is Wisconsin which went for Trump, but it's the first GOP win there since Reagan.

Ogilvy has been named a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Global Digital Marketing Agencies report for the third year in a row. Gartner, the world's leading information technology research and advisory company, compiles it findings based on an evaluation of 15 criteria encompassing both completeness of vision and ability to execute.
"Earning this recognition from Gartner is a true testament of the ongoing digital transformation of the Ogilvy brand," said Carla Hendra, Global Chairman and Founder, OgilvyRed. "It substantiates Ogilvy's unique position to bring together the full power of brand, creative and technology to meet the changing demands of our clients. Our work creating digital experiences for clients such as Transamerica, Vodafone, Phillips, are great examples of the types of work that will define our own next chapter." Specifically, the report focuses on the changes currently taking place at Ogilvy, as the agency consolidates into one brand.
The report also profiles the ongoing digital transformation of the agency focusing on talent transformation, new ways of working and implementing new technology strategies across the organization. Gartner also notes creative, global effectiveness and data and analytics as strengths. Gartner Magic Quadrants are based on a rigorous, fact-based analysis backed up by a highly structured methodology.
As described by Gartner, "Leaders possess deep, broad capabilities across all competencies, most notably related to strategic services (which include business strategy and digital business transformation skills). Leaders implement comprehensive, effective solutions that leverage sizable investments in creative talent and marketing technology. They invest their own R&D dollars to set market direction. As a result, Leaders are the providers to watch in the ongoing evolution and transformation of marketing in a digital world. Leaders maintain a viable business, regardless of the global economy. Leaders extend their client relationships far beyond marketing promotions, often appearing on competitive bids outside their primary sector (for example, management consulting, product ideation and product development requests for quotations). Leaders help their clients develop digital marketing platforms designed for systemic growth and scale; they do so by harnessing their own significant expertise implementing digital marketing programs driven by data and analytics." [Gartner, "Magic Quadrant for Global Digital Marketing Agencies," Jay Wilson, Lizzy Foo Kune, et al., 21 March 2018.]

Dear Henry,
One of the things I wish I were better at are the skyscapes, I can count on one hand shots that have actually worked out. This is one of about 100 shots that I took of the supermoon several years ago and really, it is the only one that turned out.
Despite taking classes, night shots are still challenging for me.
What challenges you?

The days were absolutely gorgeous while we were in Medjugorje, nothing but blue sky and sunshine. Each day my daughter and I would walk from the home where we were staying to the downtown village where St. James Parish is located. We would walk alongside of vineyards, huge vegetable gardens and watch the children climbing fruit trees. The village women gathered on the paths to sell rosary beads, linen tablecloths and local honey. Occasionally we would encounter the neighborhood peacock that proudly guarded his own yard. It was a walk we looked forward to each day.
But this particular morning we gathered into small vans with the other pilgrims in our tour group. We were going to visit a group of Franciscan nuns that had relocated their convent to the Medjugorje area after their original convent had been bombed by the communists.
After Sister Janja spoke, Fr. Patrick Crowley, SS.CC., our spiritual director while in Medjugorje, held mass for us in the nuns chapel. As he was praying for an increase or outpouring of the Holy Spirit among us , a strong wind shook the chapel walls and stained glass windows. The doors blew open and slammed shut with unbelievable force and the crowd inside began to praise God loudly, some of them sang praises in tongues. It was truly amazing.
Father, a very humble man, smiled and stated that the Lord had let us witness a small version of Pentecost. Ask and you shall receive!
The good Lord always wants to share His gifts with His children. And just as Christ gave us the Advocate which is the Holy Spirit, we, too, are called to be advocates for Christ Jesus in the world today. May we continue to pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth. Ps 104
June 02, 2011 Message to Mirjana from Our Lady Queen of Peace, Medjugorje "Dear children! As I call you to prayer for those who have not come to know the love of God, if you were to look into your hearts you would comprehend that I am speaking about many of you. With an open heart, sincerely ask yourselves if you want the living God or do you want to eliminate Him and live as you want. Look around you, my children, and see where the world is going, the world that thinks of doing everything without the Father, and which wanders in the darkness of temptation. I am offering to you the light of the Truth and the Holy Spirit. According to God's plan I am with you to help you to have my Son, His Cross and Resurrection, triumph in your hearts. As a mother, I desire and pray for your unity with my Son and His works. I am with you; you decide. Thank you."

To lose weight healthily, do not need to starve, do strict diets or anything like that. The smart thing is to incorporate into your life a little exercise and a series of healthy eating habits.
One of the most common errors that exist when conducting a diet is that once completed, will again gain weight. This is because habits have not changed, only followed the instructions diet written on paper. The important thing to lose weight is to change some eating habits that will make you forget diets once and for all because you no longer will be needed.
Remember: It is better to lose weight slowly safely and durably to do strict diets that are unhealthy and we only help you lose weight in passing.

- Plan your meals
Comedies food plan should be ordered as this not only will become aware of what you consume and quantity but do not let that improvisation harm your weight loss plan.
Start making a shopping list. Your shopping list should include variety and healthy foods, including cannot miss fruits and vegetables rich in minerals season vitamins and fiber, fish, vegetables, lean meats, eggs, nuts, etc.
Avoid foods and beverages high in refined sugars such as bakery products, sweets and soft drinks and processed foods. Plan what you will eat each day with their respective amounts (including breakfast, mid-morning and afternoon snack). The kitchen always fair. This is very important. Rations must be weighed. In addition to saving money, we avoid eating more than we need.
With proper planning of your eating habits, everything will be much easier. If you also keep the mealtimes you avoid feeling hungry and therefore you control what you eat better, become a more efficient addition to your digestive system.

- Perform 5-6 meals a day
Healthy habits every three hours, offers great benefits for your body, as to enjoy higher energy levels, reduce appetite and increase metabolic functions.
Your body works hard to digest and absorb the food you eat what makes your metabolism is working all the time. Also, we avoid metabolism when they spend many hours between meals and keep a constant and higher nutrient intake and greater assimilation of food.
In fact, the body has a maximum capacity of absorption of nutrients at once, so that when we eat a lot at one sitting is not likely to absorb much of these foods, so it ends up losing.
- Drink daily 2 liters of water
This habits to lose body well hydrated is a healthy body. Half of your body is water but sometimes is lost every day through sweat, urine, and metabolism.
It is very important to help the body rid itself of toxins and subjected to purification regularly as they accumulate in our body because of environmental pollution, chemical additives in food, electromagnetic pollution, stress, among other factors.
Water plays a role in the metabolism of food we consume. Take 1.5L of water per day for a year can help you lose 2lbs without making any other changes. Drinking water with meals can help control appetite and increase satiety.
- Control simple carbohydrates
We know that there are two types of carbohydrates, complex and simple.
Complex carbohydrates (starches) are slowly assimilated by the body, so they produce a slower and moderate elevation of blood glucose which can control sugar levels in the blood and at the same time, they supply the body with energy Long duration.
Change habits, simple carbohydrates are digested very rapidly and absorbed into the bloodstream within minutes, producing a condition of hyperglycemia which means there is a high concentration of sugar in the blood.
To counter this, our body produces a hormone called insulin, which is responsible for moving sugar from the blood into cells, overloading systems energy production of cells.
If we do not spend that energy overload, excess sugar is converted to fat. That is why we must keep simple carbohydrates (sugars) to a minimum, especially if you're trying to lose weight.
That said when dieting care with sweets, bakery products and especially careful with juices and fruits! Although they are very healthy, and an excellent source of pure water, fiber and vitamins and minerals, also they contain fructose, a sugar that becomes extremely easy fat.
Controls fruits and simple carbohydrates, eat them earlier in the day or before exercising, pus has more possibilities to use these sugars with daily activities.

- Do not think that all fats are bad
Fats have a bad reputation in general. In recent years it has carried out a crusade against fat from all media, to ensure that this is considered to blame for all the problems afflicting society. There are different types of fats and should know how to differentiate and take them into account, as they are necessary for the proper functioning of the body, because believe it or not, fat is part of us and without our health may worsen.
The key is to know that there is good and bad fat, to ensure the daily supply of the first and avoid the latter.
Habits to lose "bad" fat are saturated fats. They are found mainly in meat, offal, and derivatives (sausages, pates, butter, bacon, etc.), dairy products (cream and butter). These fats are the main dietary caudal increase LDL cholesterol ("bad") cholesterol and cardiovascular problems. When looking at the food label, pay close attention to the percentage of saturated fat and avoid or limit any food that has a high level. Saturated fats should be limited to 10% of daily calories.
Unsaturated fat is known as "good fat" Within unsaturated fats monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are found. These fats help lower blood cholesterol if used in place of saturated fats.
They also help reduce the appetite for its high satiating effect. The best sources of unsaturated fats are olive oil, flaxseed, soybean, canola, fish oils and nuts. Although these fats are very healthy, they have many calories, so it is necessary to limit consumption.
- Increase your fiber intake
Fiber promotes satiety, especially soluble fiber because it retains water, increases the volume of food in the stomach and causing distension of the stomach, a sign that the body interprets as filling and you have to stop eating.
Habits to thin fiber also delay gastric emptying, a factor that has a very important consequence is that the body will absorb the nutrients absorbed slowly so that glucose spikes can be avoided.
The fiber also reduces the absorption of cholesterol, to keep him with her and remove the feces.
Fiber stimulates peristalsis, increases bowel movements and prevent constipation. It also prevents related to the digestive system as diverticulosis, diverticulitis and is increasingly investigating their role in preventing colon cancer because it prevents carcinogens long stays in contact with the intestinal mucosa diseases.

- Avoid frying foods
Eating habits to fry food, we normally use vegetable oils (olive, sunflower, etc.). In its raw form, these oils are very healthy, contain essential fatty acids and are rich in vitamin E but the heat this oil loses its healthy attributes, i.e. healthy fats that own and that are so beneficial to the organism transformed into Trans fats.
Tran's fats are very unhealthy fats that raise the risk of heart disease and clogged arteries). The best way to cook food is-steamed or grilled them with just a few drops of oil.

Ch 8: The Transcription and Translation Process: Biology 101 Lesson Plans
About This Chapter
Weekly Syllabus
Below is a sample breakdown of the Transcription and Translation Process chapter into a 5-day school week. Based on the pace of your course, you may need to adapt the lesson plan to fit your needs.
|Key Terms and Concepts Covered
|The central dogma
|The transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA to protein
|Transcription of DNA to mRNA
|The antisense strand, DNA promoters and terminators, the initiation, elongation and termination steps
|Regulation of gene expression
|The lac operon, transcriptional repression and induction
|RNA processing
|Exons and introns, pre-mRNA, spliceosomes, the poly(A) tail, mature mRNA, stop and start codons
|Translation of mRNA to protein
|Codon recognition, tRNA and anticodons, amino acid chains, ribosome structure, polypeptide synthesis, the degenerate and universal nature of the genetic code
1. Protein Synthesis in the Cell and the Central Dogma
Learn the story of the central dogma and how it relates to protein synthesis. We'll use a simple analogy to explore the roles of transcription and translation in building protein from the DNA code. In this lesson, we'll also introduce the concept of a gene.
2. Transcription of Messenger RNA (mRNA) from DNA
In this lesson, you will gain a thorough understanding of how transcription works. We will investigate how DNA is transcribed into RNA with the help of a promoter and RNA polymerase. Learn the purpose of messenger RNA and explore the three phases of transcription.
3. Regulation of Gene Expression: Transcriptional Repression and Induction
Do our genes work the same way all the time? How do we regulate the expression of our genes? Explore the various ways organisms control gene transcription through repression and induction of operons.
4. How An Operon Controls Transcription in a Prokaryotic Cell
Is gene regulation really as simple as flipping a switch? What are the parts of an operon, and how do they function to control gene transcription? We'll study the lac operon to answer these questions.
5. RNA Processing in a Eukaryotic Cell: Splicing of Introns & Exons
In this lesson, we'll explore the unique considerations for gene regulation in the eukaryotic cell. We'll walk through RNA splicing of introns and exons and the addition of the 5' cap and poly(A) tail.
6. What Is the Genetic Code That Translates RNA Into Amino Acids?
How is RNA translated into a series of amino acids? Learn the language of the genetic code, explore a codon dictionary, and discover some basics of genetics in this lesson on translation.
7. Making Sense of the Genetic Code: Codon Recognition
Explore the genetic code and how it is translated into a polypeptide. We'll practice using the RNA codon chart and learn the basics of codon recognition.
8. Codon Recognition: How tRNA and Anticodons Interpret the Genetic Code
How does codon recognition work at the molecular level? Can you use tRNA and anticodons to decipher the genetic code? Learn the mechanics of codon recognition and build a polypeptide from a sample genetic code.
9. The Role of Ribosomes and Peptide Bonds in Genetic Translation
Ribosomes play a major role in the process of genetic translation. In this lesson, learn about the structure of ribosomes and how peptide bonds help to create chains of amino acids.
10. Translation of mRNA to Protein: Initiation, Elongation & Termination Steps
Translation, the second part of the central dogma of molecular biology, describes how the genetic code is used to make amino acid chains. In this lesson, explore the mechanics involved in polypeptide synthesis. Learn the three major steps of translation as you watch tRNA, mRNA, and ribosomes go to work.

text: I'm 23 I've been having a chronic headache for over a month about a month ago i had a unilateral headache on my right side accompanied by a swollen artery right past my hairline that i cant visibly see but i can feel with my fingers pulsating. I went to urgent care where a doctor told my i had temporal arteritis regaurdless of my age and sent me to the ER where they gave me a headache cocktail and took a ct scan which was clean but did not take a biopsy or blood and sent me home telling me it was a tension headache, unsatisfied i went to my primary who felt the artery and just told me it was tension and sent me home with instructions to take vitamin d, drink more water, and exercise to reduce stress. I have done all of these exercise makes the swelling worse so i dont like doing it because it feels uncomfortable. so its been a month nothings changed except there is not really any pain i just feel pressure where the vein is and sometimes over my eye and sometimes in my ear. sometimes there is no pressure and i feel perfectly fine other times like today it feel super uncomfortable and it gives me anxiety. I do not have a tender scalp or jaw pain or a reduced appetite i sleep just fine and my vision is fine other than sometimes my right eye can feel slightly strange sometimes, also sometimes i feel like weird tingling on my scalp in various places and feel nerve twitches in my face or fore head and weir chugging in my veins? what should i do?

Product SEN-10221 about 9 years ago
Does anyone have any mounting ideas - It is very sensitive to being twisted or bent with consequent wild variations in resistance, but the datasheet doesn't explain how the bottom should be restrained.
To keep it perfectly flat I'm contemplating putting it on fibreglass sheet with blobs of epoxy at intervals along the edges. Hopefully this wont disturb the measuring mechanics.
No public wish lists :(

Pegasus spyware targeting human rights activists in 45 countries
Infamous Pegasus spyware targets phone users in 45 countries
Security researchers have conducted an extensive investigation over three years tracking down the infamous Pegasus malware, which exclusively targets iPhone and Android devices. According to findings, the malicious payload spread across 45 countries, six of which used spyware to abuse human rights in the past.
Pegasus spyware originated in 2016[1] and was created by Israeli-based security firm NSO Group.[2] The malicious software was sold to the oppressive governments as a "lawful intercept" to spy on journalists, human rights activists, political opposition, etc. However, research showed that the malware was also spotted in the US, UK, Canada, France, and other developed democratic countries.
Not only the propagation of Pegasus increased over time, however, and experts found that the number of servers associated with the malware increased dramatically:
The number of Pegasus servers we detected in our scans ballooned from about 200 in 2016 to almost 600 in 2018. This may be an indication that NSO Group is scaling up their operations.
Pegasus is a sophisticated spyware-type program which is capable of a wide range of malicious activities, including recording calls, reading texts, stealing photos, tracking victims' location, and much more.[3]
Spyware spreads widely nowadays and will be active in the future
From its first malicious activity in 2016, Pegasus spyware is widely spreading in numerous countries worldwide recently. Nevertheless, this dangerous malware is being used definitely not for good purposes but for making attempts against human rights. According to researchers from The Citizen Lab, Pegasus abusive usage has increased lately but there also were some countries that have misused this spyware program in the past:[4]:
At least six countries with significant Pegasus operations have previously been linked to abusive use of spyware to target civil society, including Bahrain, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
Furthermore, Pegasus spyware was used for attacking human rights in Mexico in 2017 also. People, including even young children, were tricked into believing that all this activity was promoted by the trusted government. However, this dangerous malware resulted in affecting the population. Some of the people were even well-known lawyers and journalists.
However, expectations for the future are not that bright as people might want them to be. Due to the excessive propagation of spyware, such attempts might still be very common in the future unless the governments of particular countries will take some actions against the spyware industry and strictly regulate it:
Civil society will increasingly find itself the target of this type of sophisticated surveillance unless the governments better regulate the spyware industry
NSO denied all allegations
For more information, researchers have informed numerous users that Pegasus and other spyware-related programs are spread through exploit kits with the help of phishing techniques. According to research, over a thousand IPs and domain names were found belonging to the Pegasus spyware and C2 servers in the past two years.
However, researchers have come with an interesting technique which allows them to identify locations which are used by various operators to spy by misusing the Pegasus spyware program:
We designed and conducted a global DNS cache probing study on the matching domain names in order to identify in which countries each operator was spying. Our technique identified a total of 45 countries where Pegasus operators may be conducting surveillance operations. At least 10 Pegasus operators appear to be actively engaged in cross-border surveillance.
Even though malware spread worldwide and made a big impact on people in numerous countries, NSO has stated that the guilt should not be put on them as there are very few NSO-related operations that are active in the countries that were affected with Pegasus spyware[5]:
There are multiple problems with Citizen Lab's latest report. Most significantly, the list of countries in which NSO is alleged to operate is simply inaccurate. NSO does not operate in many of the countries listed. The product is only licensed to operate in countries approved under our Business Ethics Framework and the product will not operate outside of approved countries.
All in all, we can come to various conclusions and debates about the guilty ones but the most important thing is to prevent such Pegasus infiltration in the future. We need to put our best hopes that governments will decide to regulate the spyware industry and that such attempts will decrease slightly in the nearest future.

I started a new Flickr group called Drink this.
That's what shopping at Ikea for four hours will do to you.
But the idea is to attract folks who are attracted to drinks. Bubbles, bourbon, beer. In a frosty glass. Whiskey, water, wine. Caipirinha, coke, coffee. Pretty coffee. Sexy coffee.
Milk, even milk is acceptable but that would have to be a pretty stunning photo.
Manhattans, of course.
I love drinking. I do. Even when many of my Woodstock glasses no longer exist to be drunk from. I like the vessel as much as I like what is in it. I like the weather that makes me choose what I drink. I like drinking cold Brooklyn water from the tap when I'm thirsty. Except I drink it out of an old, heavy glass. It tastes wonderful. I like camp coffee. These are drinks.
So please join if you are like me. I have no idea what we'll get out of it, except, possibly, pleasure.

Xavier AmigoDate of birth: 8 May 1972
Place of birth: Caldes de Malavella
Lives: Girona
Marital status:married, one son
Role: Co-driver
Hobbies: Fitness, reading
Xavier Amigo Colon – to give him his full name – started his WRC co–driving career sitting alongside Marc Blazquez in a Group N Peugeot 205 Rallye back in 1996.
Before that he had been a regular co–driver on the national scene in Spain. He started in 1992, competing in the Catalunyan Gravel Championship with Joan Perich.
After a few season cutting his teeth on in national rallies, it was only natural that Xavier made his WRC debut on Rallye Catalunya– Costa Brava. He also competed with Blazquez on Spains WRC round in 1997 and 1998.
After that he navigated for Michael Huete for two years, and formed part of the junior team set up by ex–Subaru star Carlos Sainz. Next came spells sitting alongside Alejandro Galanti and Salvador Canellas, before he joined forces with promising youngster Daniel Sola for a tilt at the Production World Rally Championship for the 2004 season.
The duo was third in PWRC in Sweden, first in Mexico and went on to finish eighth in the points standings. Ironically, one of their main rivals during the season was a certain Xavier Pons!
Amigo also made his WRC debut on that year's Acropolis Rally of Greece, again co–driving for Sola. The pair picked up their first WRC points on Rallye Catalunya–Costa Brava, where they finished sixth in a Mitsubishi Lancer WRC.
He remained with Sola for 2005, when the duo competed on six WRC events in a Ford Focus WRC. He spent much of 2006 away from the WRC, competing instead in national championship events in his homeland alongside Sola. Then at the start of 2007, Xavier forged a new link with Xevi Pons and will wear the famous blue and yellow colours alongside his compatriot.

After another helpful afternoon at the Chiropractor (see muscle testing post) my wife had learned all about EFT. I forget what that stands for exactly…Emotional Feeling Touching or something like that. Doesn't matter.
What it apparently is able to do is tap into the 'power centers' the same way acupuncture would, minus the needles. Instead of putting needles into your skin, you tap on the spots around their body, hands, inside of the elbows, the face and temples, etc. It's super weird to watch. Oh and while you're doing this, it's helpful to chant something you're trying to affect, like "Allergies, allergies, allergies."
It seriously looks like you're trying to reset someone's brain by pushing random key combinations (like 'control-alt-delete' for people). Apparently the trick is to do it when they're experiencing something bad, fear of heights or a headache or whatever, and then remove the blockage through neural stimulation.
Kind of makes sense. Minus the chanting.
Also kind of annoying, to have someone tapping on your head and face when you have a headache, or whenever you don't feel well on some level, or even when you're feeling amazing.
Being tapped on the face is just the worst in any situation.
But apparently it really works, you can help cure people of phobias. For (made-up) example, my wife with random person:
WIFE: "Here! Hold a spider."
WIFE (tapping on arachnophobic person's face): SPIDER SPIDER SPIDER!
To be fair…I'm not sure that's exactly how that would go down. But I would probably enjoy watching that happen, before having to go downtown to bail my wife out of jail.
JUDGE: "But did you touch them in any way?"
WIFE: "…well I tapped them a few times, but I hardly see how that could count as assau-…
JUDGE: "It counts…NEXT!"
Moral of the story I guess is don't practice EFT on strangers. Or hand spiders to arachnophob's.
Or anyone for that matter.
Just don't touch or spider anyone and you should be fine.
One day we were at the park watching the kids play and dusk came upon us, and with dusk, the mosquitoes. My wife helpfully whips out her latest round of natural bug repellent sprays and begins heartily spraying my exposed legs.

Dragon Age: Inquisition's "tighter emphasis on story" and choices doesn't fit with a true open-world game
Dragon Age: Inquisition's world will be more open than previous titles, but don't go in expecting it to be a true, open world game because it just wouldn't fit right with the series, according to creative director Mike Laidlaw.
Speaking with Game Informer, Laidlaw said the following regarding a fully open world Dragon Age game: "I don't necessarily know that it would be the right challenge to tackle with Dragon Age. I think that when you make a series of games you need to find what works with that series of games, you need to cultivate fans that have stuck with you and are really passionate. You need to be consistent within.
"Is it something BioWare might look into? Maybe. That's a pretty long-term question."
Laidlaw said open world titles like The Elder Scrolls are "absolutely enthralling," but with the complexities of choice and the storyline in Dragon Age, it just wouldn't be feasible.
"You can lose yourself for 70, 80, 170 hours in an Elder Scrolls game. That's fabulous," he said. "But we have an expectation for Dragon Age which is that strong story, and a focus on those tough, gut-wrenching choices. Having a tighter emphasis on story helps us to maintain that. It's never off the books but for Dragon Age I'd like to stay true to what makes Dragon Age Dragon Age–having that party, working together, and having the story progress."
Dragon Age: Inquisition is coming to PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One in northern autumn 2014.
Thanks, Shack.

'The Motel Life' author speaking at Minden Library
Nevada Reads is a statewide book club that invites Nevadans to read selected works of literature and come together in their communities to share the ideas and perceptions inspired by the books they have read. Willy Vlautin, author of the 2019 Nevada Reads book "Don't Skip Out On Me," will discuss his book 5-6:30 p.m. Sept. 11 at the Minden Library.
Born and raised in Reno, Vlautin started playing guitar and writing songs as a teenager and quickly became immersed in music. It was a Paul Kelly song, based on Raymond Carver's "Too Much Water So Close to Home," that inspired him to start writing stories. He has published five novels: "The Motel Life" (2007), "Northline" (2008), "Lean on Pete" (2010), "The Free" (2014), and "Don't Skip Out On Me" (2018).
"The Motel Life" was made into a motion picture that was filmed in part in Carson Valley.
This year there are three Nevada Reads books. In addition to "Don't Skip Out On Me," they include "Educated" by Tara Westover and "Heavy: An American Memoir" by Kiese Laymon. All three titles are available for loan from the Minden and Zephyr Cove Branches.
Nevada Reads is a program of Nevada Humanities and is made possible with support from Nevada State Library, Archives, and Public Records; the Institute of Museum and Library Services; and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The Minden Library is located at 1625 Library Lane. Connect with the Douglas County Public Library on Facebook and Twitter, library.douglascountynv.gov, or call 775-782-9841.

Stogie News: Smoker Persecution in Great Britain
5 Jun 2007
If you don't think smokers are a persecuted class, then you haven't been paying attention.
Those who choose to smoke face a new smoking ban or exorbitant tax nearly every day, under the guise of "public health" – a rarely defined and limitless justification for restricting the choices that individuals are permitted to make about their own lives.
And it is that so-called "public health" justification that makes the newest form of smoker persecution all the more hypocritical and appalling. In Leicester, England health bureaucrats have launched a plan to deny smokers access to surgeries if they continue to choose to smoke:
Smokers could be denied routine operations on the NHS unless they quit a month before surgery…
The proposals, which have been drawn up by Leicester City West Primary Care Trust, could be extended to other areas.
The Leicester plans would involve smokers being given counselling and nicotine patches to help them stop. But the patients would have to give a blood sample to prove they had quit before being put on the waiting list and admitted for elective non-emergency surgery.
Doctors would decide whether to operate if the patient failed to give up.
The Leicester trust will launch a consultation on the proposals to coincide with the smoking ban that comes into force in England on July 1.
Now keep in mind that Britain has nationalized health care, and that the denial of care is by government doctors who are paid with taxpayer funds – particularly the billions collected in tobacco taxes. In Great Britain taxes have driven the cost of a pack of cigarettes up to £5.50, or nearly $11 U.S.
But later in the article the health Nazis reveal their real reason for this denial of medical treatment: "Its plans were welcomed yesterday by health charities but condemned by smoking groups which said they were part of a drive to save money and turn England's 10 million smokers into pariahs."
And if turning smokers into pariahs is the goal, then Britain is doing a good job.
The government recently announced that smokers would be liable for an £80 on-the-spot fine for stubbing out cigarettes in the street. And European Union officials are considering banning smokers from lighting up outside office doorways, at bus shelters, and on outdoor train platforms.

When buyers are going to purchase gas furnace unit, they focus on its features and price. Later after the unit is installed, they need to start worrying about repair cost. Even though heating unit is recently installed, it might be broken soon. Therefore, buyers are suggested to prepare themselves before hand.
Several gas furnace errors could be fixed with simple steps. As long as buyers don't need to replace any parts, usually DIY fixing steps could help. However, some other problems need professional hands. As expected, home owners should be prepared to pay gas furnace repair cost. It ranges from $60 to $900 per service depending on how broken the unit is.
Since repairing price could be either low or high, a lot of home owners try to learn about types of errors. Should they call contractors or repair them manually? Once they get contractor's help, how much they must pay?
Knowing When to Replace your Gas Furnace
There is one simple calculation to check whether you should replace gas furnace or not. Contractors call it the "5000" rules. The calculation is easy; times the repair cost and age of gas furnace. If the result exceeds 5000, then replace it. If the result is less than 5000, then repair it.
Replacing Unit When Calculation Is Less Than 5000
For some cases, it is recommended to replace unit even though the calculation is less than 5000. What are the conditions?
1. Gas furnace produces loud noise during operation. Despite of its AFUE rating, gas furnace still surprises you by the end of the month. Energy bill is still high. You might replace it when unit blows cold or hot air swings.
2. Gas furnace is way too old so you need to repair several parts at once. Even after these repairs, it still cannot work properly.
3. Gas furnace is not as "eco-friendly" as you wish. In this case, purchasing 95+ efficiency unit will be good choice.
Repairing Unit When Calculation Is More Than 5000
There are several conditions where units should be repaired first.
1. Gas furnace spare parts are available in many stores and you are in a tight budget. Replacing unit might not be wise thing to do.
2. Gas furnace is expected to work for one more year. This case often happens to family that will move soon. Purchasing new unit would be a waste of money. Therefore, they should repair gas furnace instead.
Common Gas Furnace Problems & Repair Costs
Service Call
Panicked home owners might immediately call brand's service center immediately after they find that gas furnace stops working. It will be either right or careless thing to do. Once repair man arrives, they will check your gas furnace. If they are fixing minor problems, then you have to pay for repair man's travel expense and time. Minimum cost per call is $75.
Several examples of minor problems are disconnected gas line caused by kitchen's reparation, dirty filter, clogged pipe and many more. More serious problem might happen as well. For this case, you will pay more; around $200 or less.
Dirty Filters
Listening to heavy machine sound is not pleasing. You have tried to turn the machine off and on. Still, the disturbing noise doesn't stop. In this case, clogged filter might be the culprit. A lot of things could get stuck in furnace filters; fine hair, pet hair and debris. In addition to noisy machine, clogged filter also affects heat distribution to rooms.
You will have two choices to solve dirty filter problem; cleaning or changing it. Not all brands install washable filter. In this case, you have to buy new filter. One new filter costs $3 to $40. If you already call for help from repair man, then you also need to pay for his service.
Cleaning the Gas Valve and Burner
This trouble will happen to a house that put gas valve and burner in dusty place, cooking area or pet shelter. Otherwise, such problem could only be found in oil furnace only. This fact doesn't mean that no maintenance is needed for these two features.
Once in every two years, you have to clean them up. In addition to cleaning, tune up might be needed as well. It is better to call professional contractor to handle this job. When maintenance time comes, get ready to wait for one hour for cleaning time and around $150 to $400 for service costs.
Thermostat/Control Replacement
Another feature that might call for repairing soon is thermostat. So far, there are three different kind of thermostat; wire type, WiFi thermostat and programmable thermostat. Depending on these types, you might spend less or more on unit purchase, repair and installation.
Wire thermostat is the cheapest among all types. You could buy it for $15 per unit. If you could follow installation steps well, then there is no installation service fee needed. For wireless thermostat, it costs around $600 including installation. Last type, the programmable thermostat, is available at affordable cost; $185 to $450 including installation.
Ignitor and Flame Sensors
In order to be able to provide heat, gas furnace relies on ignition machine to light up fire. Once this feature is broken or not working properly, gas furnace will be stopped. You better prepare yourself, since this is most common trouble with heating furnace. If your machine is 10 years old already, ask contractor to replace the ignitor and flame sensor next time they come for regular visit.
It is better to replace them as repair man opens up the cabinet. Waiting until ignitor goes bad is also an option, but it will cost you more. For unit and installation, you will pay around $300 to $425.
Blower Motor
You might say that blower motor is the heart of gas furnace. When it breaks, you might need to consider buying a new furnace as well. It is also possible to find and install new part. Keep in mind that you might pay more for this part, since each brand has different sizes.
Complexity of its installation also contributes to high cost installation service. Some blower motors are using built-in computer module to start the function. Of course, installation price for this specific model will be high. Average cost to replace blower motor is $400 to $1400 and reparation time is about one to two hours.
Draft Inducer Motor
It is not surprising that not many buyers know about this feature. Draft inducer motor is small but functional part of gas furnace. It pulls combustion gas to go through heat exchanger. Then, draft inducer motor also directs this gas to flow out through exhaust chimney.
Replacing draft inducer motor in gas furnace is not for you. Even advanced DIY lovers should give the job to professional repair man. The entire replacement process takes about one to two hours. For the cost, you need to pay $500 to $700 per unit. Don't worry, it already includes installation costs.
Circuit Board Replacement
You know computer has motherboard. In gas furnace, circuit board plays motherboard role in computer. This board controls a lot of functions; sensors, gas valve, ignitor, and many more. It is also possible to follow installation direction. Beware though; this unit should be installed properly, wire to wire.
If you are not sure, then leave the job to professional HVAC repair man. Remember that circuit board is non refundable once it is installed. Time needed to connect wires on circuit board is about two hours. Be prepared to pay $250 to $600 for unit and installation service.
Heat Exchanger Replacement
Have you ever wonder why heat exchanger has longest warranty? It is because this feature is connected to most parts of gas furnace. In the other words, replacing heat exchanger is similar to split open the entire unit.
For this reason, replacement cost is very high and installation time takes longer than any other parts. When your heat exchanger is breaking, repair man needs two to four hours to replace it. Then, you also need to pay around $800 to $1400.

Hats off to President Ernest Koroma and the valiant Government and the people of Sierra Leone, and our international partners, for breaking the back of Ebola
By KABS KANU :
LEADERSHIP is all about character and as Warren Bennis and Burt Nanus tell us in their classic, LEADERS, character is a continuously evolving thing. Leadership is about strong determination , solid resolve, vision and a bias towards positive action that leads to momentous victory. In no one are these virtues epitomized than our quiet, circumspect but always working and productive Chief Executive and Commander-In-Chief ( C-I-C) , President Ernest Bai Koroma.
As we stand at the precipice of victory over the Ebola outbreak, we , the people of Sierra Leone feel indebted to and would love to thank our always-forward-looking President , His Excellency Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma ( Those closer to him love to call him SUPREMO ) , the government and our peerless kinsmen and women of Sierra Leone for successfully breaking the back of the Ebola virus and edging our nation closer to yet another huge victory as we did over the rebel war. We also thank the international organizations and our traditional partners-in-progress like the UK, U.S, UN, China , Germany, Korea, Cuba etc.etc for coming to our aid to help fight this deadly virus.
JUST A LITTLE MORE caution, adherence to all the protocols and precautions and avoidance of harmful and dangerous traditional practices like washing of dead bodies and we will completely break the chain of transmission and render our beloved country Ebola-free.
SOME OF US said it during the outbreak of this vicious disease when pessimism , negativity, waving-the-bloody-shirt , fear-mongering and despair reigned that SIERRA LEONEANS ARE A RESILIENT PEOPLE and we will triumph once again over this latest challenge to our survival AS WE DID OVER THE REBEL WAR.
We are not there yet. There is still very much to be done, but we can smell the luscious and delightful aroma of approaching VICTORY . The numbers of new transmissions are going down daily, never mind the fluctuation , and what the doomsayers predicted around July to December that by January we would have been overrun by Ebola seems to be beer garden talk after all.
Thank God for a President who is so calm, self-assured about his abilities to rule our nation successfully , confident and more disposed to action than idle banter. Those closer to President Koroma know that if you want to court his friendship you have to be positive , confident and more biased towards ACTION than idle talk , complaining and gossip. President Koroma runs a tight ship in which he loves to see action than fear-mongering and throwing of hands in the air in despair and defeat. His life is a catalogue of victories over setbacks and so he does not have time for "Crying Uncle" and pity-parties. His philosophy is POSITIVE ACTION. He believes that WHERE POSITIVE THINKING AND POSITIVE ACTION REIGN, THE FLAG OF SUCCESS WILL NEVER BE LOWERED. The President has demonstrated this character once again in the Ebola fight. Despite all the fear-mongering that reigned at the onset, President Koroma did not panic or resort to blame games. He put his shoulders to the wheel to trump in resources and international support. He used the country's resources to fight. He set his face forward like a flint . He toiled day and night with his ministers , health-care providers and the international community and today Sierra Leoneans have started seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
We thank God for able lieutenants around President Koroma, like the man himself, the orator and the action-man, ALPHA SAHID KANU, the Minister of Information and Commenications ,whose contribution was outstanding and other ministers and public officials we will name one by one in subsequent articles. The NERC Chief ,Majpr Palor Conteh deserves a lot of commendation . We will name all the heroes and the heroines later.
We thank God for all our doctors , medical care-givers and frontline workers including the burial teams. May God grant Heaven through his grace to the many who died in the call of duty.
We thank God also for the patriotic Sierra Leoneans and Sierra Leone-based organizations in the diaspora who rallied to the call of PATRIOTISM and NATIONALISM and helped to mobilize international support and resources.
We thank God for ambassadors, diplomats and other party and government officials abroad who have also been on their toes to make sure that help keeps flowing from the international community to Sierra Leone.
We thank God for the media for helping to bring the disaster to the attention of the international community.
We thank God for the religious leaders at home and abroad for their prayer vigils, all-nights and tears before God .
WE HAVE NOT REACHED OUR GOAL OF ZERO INFECTIONS YET, because Ebola is not an easy disease to conquer .We still have to remain vigilant and complacency must be out of our books. But we have broken Ebola's ugly back and we are moving on to victory and for this, all patriotic Sierra Leoneans should be proud.
