At the Fourth of July parade in Richmond, VT, a man on stilts walked with the floats. He wore long, glittery red, white, and blue pants and a matching coat. And a tall stars and stripes top hat that finally stopped, because of the stilts, a good eleven feet in the air. He walked by himself, carrying a hand-painted sign that said 'READ SARAH CLEGHORN'. The parade was slow, so I had a minute to wonder who the heck Sarah Cleghorn is before he passed and I was allowed to see the sign's back.
I saw a sickly cellar plant
Droop on its feeble stem, for want
Of sun and wind and rain and dew —
Of freedom! — Then a man came through
The cellar, and I heard him say,
'Poor, foolish plant, by all means stay
Contented here; for — know you not? —
This stagnant dampness, mold and rot
Are your incentive to grow tall
And reach that sunbeam on the wall.'
— Even as he spoke, the sun's one spark
Withdrew, and left the dust more dark.
That almost every day
The laboring children can look out
And see the men at play.

Kids seem to fall into food patterns quickly, establishing favorites and shunning what they don't like for a cornucopia of reasons –– and those preferences may last for years, if not lifetimes. That's why it's important to set the groundwork for basic eating habits early on, implementing dietary and nutrition standards that they may pass on to their own children.
Once your child has figured out that they don't like a certain food, however, it can be tricky to persuade them to give it another try. While being a picky eater may not be a permanent lifestyle for your children, it's important to have a strategy just in case they do not easily revert back to being an adventurous eater.
If you're struggling with healthy nutrition and snacks for your child, the Cary, NC medical team at Western Wake Pediatrics has put together a list of helpful tips to get your kid back into a balanced diet, full of veggies and fruit.
One bite rule. If your child boycotts almost everything on their plate, implement the one bite rule –– that is, tell them they only need to eat one bite of the offending food, be it beets, broccoli, asparagus or something else they find unfamiliar. While they probably won't finish the rest of their serving, you'll be building their tolerance and likeability toward that food item.
Let creativity reign with recipes and food choices. Your child is an independent person, and treating them that way may yield surprising results at the dinner table. By involving them in the meal planning process, you're encouraging and guiding them, and allowing them to select a healthy food choice that they already love.
Raw instead of cooked. Mushy food probably doesn't sound appealing to any of us -– and it won't to a child either. If texture is a reason your young one is shoving food around on their plate, consider serving it raw if it's safe to do so. Good raw food examples include zucchini sticks, carrots, peppers, cauliflower and broccoli.
If you're worried about your child's growth patterns, or if you'd like more nutrition tips for the pickiest of toddler eaters, Western Wake Pediatrics in Cary is here to help. Call our nutrition experts today at 919-859-9991 to request a health supervision visit with a doctor to discuss healthy eating habits, as well as exercise, education and development.

Who will replace Usain Bolt as 100m Olympic champion at Tokyo 2020?
By Richard Damerell
Last Updated: 23/08/16 12:02pm
After Usain Bolt powered to three gold medals in his final Olympic Games, we pick out which sprinters could replace the Jamaican as the 100m champion at Tokyo 2020.
The 30-year-old waved a triumphant farewell to the Olympics, claiming gold in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m in Rio ahead of his planned retirement next year.
But who will follow in the blazing footsteps of Bolt by winning the 100m in four years time? Here are five contenders that could be going for gold at the Games in Japan...
Andre De Grasse
The 21-year-old Canadian has lived up to his reputation as a future sprint star, winning the 100m bronze in Rio behind Bolt and silver medallist Justin Gatlin in a personal best time of 9.91 seconds.
Bolt himself has named De Grasse as the natural heir to his throne and the pair even shared a joke during the 200m heats, before he followed the Olympic great over the line to claim silver in the final.
A year earlier, De Grasse became the first Canadian since Bruny Surin to win a 100m medal at a major competition when he finished dead level with American Trayvon Bromell to take bronze at the World Championships.
Trayvon Bromell
Another red-hot young talent, Bromell also reached the 100m final, but trailed over the line in eighth place, in a time of 10.06 seconds.
Despite this disappointing finish, the 21-year-old has made big strides in recent years and recorded a blistering time of 9.84 seconds at last year's USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, the joint 10th fastest time in history.
Bromell was given the responsibility of running the last leg for USA in the 4x100m and fell over the line in third place, but the team were later disqualified for a late baton change earlier in the race.
Nigel Ellis
The 19-year-old has been singled out as Jamaica's future star and he underlined his potential by clocking a personal best time of 10.16 while winning an Under-20 race at a Caribbean competition.
Ellis still needs to work on his raw talent, as he was disqualified for a false start at recent trials in his home country.
He could receive competition from Jevaughn Minzie and Kemar Bailey-Cole, two other rising Jamaican sprinters, who featured in the early rounds of the 4x100m in Brazil.
Abdul Hakim Sani Brown
The 17-year-old Japanese athlete was named as the 2015 IAAF Rising Star of the Year after his 100m and 200m victories at the 2015 World Youth Championships.
Sani Brown recording a winning time of 20.34 in the 200m, breaking a record time which had been set by Bolt in 2003.
The exciting teenager was denied the chance to show off his searing speed at the Olympics due to a thigh injury, but could emerge as one of the hosts' heroes in Tokyo.
Zharnel Hughes
Britain's young hope was also cruelly denied a place at the Games through injury as he could not shake off a knee ligament problem that he suffered in a fall.
The Caribbean-born athlete still trains alongside Bolt at the Racers Track Club in Jamaica and at 6'3" tall, he holds a similar physical appearance.
Hughes has enjoyed success at 200m, finishing in fifth at the 2015 World Championship final, and the 21-year-old has also recorded a promising personal best time of 10.10 for the 100m this year.

Ant ranches have come to be a preferred accessory on most residences, but in order to make sure the health and wellness of it is passengers it is exceptionally important to remember that ants are living beings, not simply a quite looking gadget on the living room. Learning exactly how to maintain a non harsh ant ranch is vital to make certain a healthy and active colony. It is incredibly vital to remind everybody at home that an ant ranch is most absolutely not a plaything. Kids ought to not be enabled near the farm not being watched, as they often will certainly trigger mayhem while attempting to assist, or to see what the ants do. Ants require a steady atmosphere to flourish, with the right amounts of water and food, so having a 4 year old flooding the ranch to see if ants can swim, or providing added food and sticky sugary foods since ants like them can lead to the end of your ant colony.
Food that is as well sticky, as well wonderful or also soft will degeneration quicker than the ants can eat it, developing a huge sticky mess and requiring you to clean the ant ranch. Ants do not truly like when a huge human hand starts cleaning up about their anthills, as it will worry them out. In order to keep a satisfied ant ranch, make sure you just feed them crispy and fresh food, in little quantities. You can just provide a lot more food if you see that they take every little thing inside the swarm also fast. In order to maintain a non vicious ant ranch, ensure that your ants constantly have fresh food and give them the periodic reward in the form of a little bit of sugared water, avoiding jelly or honey that can be untidy and sticky.
Ants like peace and quiet, so select a place for the ant farm that is away from straight sunlight and resist the lure to move the farm, or your ant colony might simply get stressed and start dyeing. Avoid knocking on the ranch's walls, unexpected noises and vibrations, and try to keep the temperature level stable in order to supply a healthy and balanced and secure setting for your ants. Make certain to choose a secure place where the Ants canada is safe and does not take the chance of diminishing. This is especially essential if there are young children and pet dogs around, as you actually do not desire your farm being knocked over and your dining room loaded with baffled ants. There is a lot that can be comprehended and learned from tiny formicaries, on top of that is the entertainment element, which deserves providing pride of place in your house alone.

Spalletti: Roma's kitman is better than Pjanic
Roma head coach Luciano Spalletti rates his club's kitman as a better player than Miralem Pjanic as a result of the Bosnia-Herzegovina star's move to Juventus.
Pjanic spent five years at Roma after joining from Lyon and played around 185 games for the Italian club. He left to join the Serie A champions during the close season for a reported €32 million and has turned in some impressive displays, chalking up four goals in 13 appearances across all competitions.

The capital club are Juve's closest challengers for the Scudetto at this stage, although they sit seven points behind them following Sunday's loss at Atalanta.
Spalletti claims his loyalty to Roma must override any admiration he still retains for the stylish playmaker, though he insists he is not angry at him for making the switch to Turin.
"My whole team is better than Pjanic," he said, as quoted by Bosnian newspaper Oslobodjenje.
Kondogbia dismisses Inter exit talk
"At this moment, everyone is better than him, including our kitman.
"I am not angry at him, but I am Roma's coach and every player that is at Roma I find better than him.
"Pjanic is top player, a champion, but he is with a different team now and, for me, my players are the best in the world."
One of the players to draw rich praise from Spalletti was Pjanic's compatriot Edin Dzeko, who has put a difficult first season with Roma behind him to stand level with Inter's Mauro Icardi and Torino's Andrea Belotti as Serie A's top scorer with 10 in 13 matches this time around.
Bellerin to Barca won't happen for half a decade now
"If one coach could make prototype of a striker on computer, he would have made Edin," Spalletti added.
"He is prototype of a perfect striker, considering how tall he is, aggressive and with good technique.
"The only thing he needs to improve is he has to be more deadly in front of goal."

Live Blog
Here is your live blog for the day.
Good Wednesday morning.
Here is what's on the president's agenda today:
- The president and first lady attend the State funeral service of President George H.W. Bush
GHWB State funeral today
It's a national day of mourning today, so banks, the stock market, and the post office are closed. President Trump will attend the service at the National Cathedral along with the ex-presidents. The service is by invite only, so you can't just show up, in case you were thinking of popping by.
If you did not see the video of former senator and presidential candidate Bob Dole standing and saluting GHWB yesterday, you want to see that. Can you image our overly effeminate snowflake millennials doing something that that? I can't.
At the GHWB service, 41 will be honored by the military with a missing man flyover. I always get emotional when they do that.
Rest in peace, sir.
George H.W. Bush once shaved his head for a Secret Service agent's son with leukemia
Mueller is finished with Flynn, recommends no jail time
The moral of this story is: the process is the punishment.
Yesterday, witch-hunter Robert Mueller released a highly-redacted sentencing memo for former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn that recommended no jail time for the former Trump advisor. The "no jail time" recommendation comes because Flynn was cooperative with the witch-hunters. "Given the defendant's substantial assistance and other considerations set forth below, a sentence at the low end of the guideline range — including a sentence that does not impose a term of incarceration — is appropriate and warranted," the memo said.
Really, the objective of targeting Flynn has been met. There's no need to toss him in the clink because the deep state has severely damaged him. He's bankrupt, he lost his house, he's going to have a problem getting employed. I'm sure his security clearance has been permanently yanked so... what's he going to do to earn a living and take care of his wife and family? Remember, Flynn was the only person Obama told Trump not to bring on board in his administration. Obama and his administrative state thugs did not want Flynn coming in and undoing their globalist achievements.
Flynn sat for 19 interviews with the Special Counsel's office and other Department of Justice attorneys, according to the sentencing memorandum and a heavily redacted supplemental filing attached to the end of the primary memorandum.
Responding to the documents' release, Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani told Fox News that Mueller was "spitting on the sidewalk, with major repercussions for many."
He added that there was nothing in the sentencing memo to suggest collusion between the Trump team and Russia, and denounced the Mueller team as "overzealous media inspired prosecutors" and "sick puppies."
Yeah, there's nothing about colluding with RUSSIA in there, and we were assured that Flynn was up to no good with RUSSIAN Ambassador Kislyak back in December 2016 — that's why he "lied" about the call. The FBI agents who interviewed him did not think Flynn lied. Total ruination is the price of being in Trump's orbit. Buckle up, Mueller is still truckin'.

AHOY. Never go full NEVER TRUMP
The Weekly Standard is probably shutting down. A once reputable magazine, the publication went completely bonkers over President Trump and never looked back. Unfortunately, the magazine's readers stopped looking at the Standard. Since Trump has a pretty high approval rating among Republicans, I'm not sure from where the WS expected to get its readership. There's certainly demand for Never Trumpism, but the market's pretty saturated. It includes every print outlet, network TV station, two major cable news stations, and Hollywood — at least. The Standard became just one among many rabid Trump-bashing outlets, which are a dime dozen. If I'm a Trump-hating, p*ssy hat-wearing, #resistance member, I can read HuffPo, Daily Kos, The Atlantic, or The New Yorker; I'm not going to read the WS.
One of the people familiar with the matter told CNN that the Washington Examiner is expanding at the expense of The Weekly Standard.
The person's view was that "they're expanding the pro-Trump magazine that does what the owners want, while threatening closing of an independent magazine that has its own history and identity."
I wouldn't call the Examiner a "pro-Trump" magazine but whatever. It's always sad when people lose their jobs around Christmas. I hope it was worth it for whoever decided on the WS editorial policy. I guess the employees and the reputation of the company were nothing compared to that sweet, lush approval from the anti-Trump elitist cocktail party circuit.

Not terribly woke, is it?
I really don't understand why GOP lawmakers in Ohio are pandering to the feminists whining about their right to feminine hygiene products.
Finally, some language policing I can get behind.
Trump is doing a lot right, but...
Seriously, he needs to consider deficits. If the nation goes insolvent after he is out of office, that will impact him, his family, and the millions of Americans he serves.
In other news, "The Simpsons" predicted the debt would increase under Trump's presidency. Then again, until the American political winds change 180 degrees, the debt is just going to continue to increase. Don't expect President Pocahontas to be any better...

|Buddhist Dictionary of Pali Proper Names by G P Malalasekera
|Gijjhakūta:One of the five hills encircling Rājagaha.It was evidently a favourite resort of those who followed the religious life.(It was so even in times gone by,see,e.g.,J.ii.55).
The Buddha seems to have been attracted by its solitude,and is mentioned as having visited it on several occasions,sometimes even in the dark,in drizzling rain,while Māra made unsuccessful attempts to frighten him (S.i.109).
It was on the slopes of Gijjhakūta,where the Buddha was wandering about,that Devadatta hurled at him a mighty stone to kill him,but only a splinter injured his foot (Vin.ii.193,etc.).
It was there also that Jīvaka Komāra-bhacca administered a purgative to the Buddha (AA.i.216).
Among those who visited the Buddha on Gijjhakūta are mentioned:
Sahampati (S.i.153), the youth Māgha (Sn.,p.86), the Yakkha Inda (S.i.206), Sakka (S.i.233; iv.102), the Paribbājaka Sajjha (A.iv.371), the Kassapagotta monk (A.i.237), Pañcasikha (S.iv.103; D.ii.220), Sutavā (A.iv.369), the four kings of the Cātummahārājika world and their followers (D.iii.195), Abhayarājakumāra (S.v.126), Upaka Mandikāputta (A.ii.181), Dhammika (A.iii.368),and Vassakāra (A.iv.18; D.ii.72).Several well-known suttas were preached on Gijjhakūta - e.g.,the Māgha,Dhammika and Chalabhijāti Suttas,the discourse on the seven Aparihānīyadhammā (A.iv.21f.),the Mahāsāropama and ātānātiya Suttas.(See also S.ii.155,185,190,241; iii.121; A.ii.73; iii.21; iv.160).
It is said (AA.i.412) that in due course a vihāra was erected on Gijjhakūta for the Buddha and his monks; here cells were erected for the use of monks who came from afar,but these cells were so difficult of access that monks arriving late at Rājagaha would ask Dabbamallaputta-Tissa to find accommodation for them in Gijjhakūta,in order to test his capabilities (Vin.ii.76; DhA.iii.321f).
Mention is made of several eminent monks who stayed at Gijjhakūta from time to time - e.g.,
Sāriputta (M.iii.263; A.iii.300; S.ii.155), Ananda (A.iii.383), Mahā Kassapa, Anuruddha, Punna Mantāniputta, Upāli and Devadatta (S.ii.155), Cunda and Channa (S.iv.55).Channa fell ill there,and ultimately committed suicide.(Another monk is mentioned as having thrown himself down from Gijjhakūta because he was discontented with his life,Vin.iii.82.According to one account,AA.i.146f,Vakkali,too,committed suicide by throwing himself from Gijjhakūta; but see Vakkali).
Moggallāna andLakkhana are reported to have stayed there,and to have seen many inhabitants of Rājagaha reborn in Gijjhakūta as petas (S.ii.254; Vin.iii.104; for Moggallāna see also A.iv.75).
The Mettiya-bhummajakas (Vin.iii.167) and the Chabbaggiyas (ibid.,82) were also in the habit of visiting the hill.
Several places are mentioned as having been visited by the Buddha during his sojourns on Gijjhakūta,and it may be inferred from accounts given of these visits that these places were within easy reach of the hill.Such,for example,are:
the Patibhānakūta (S.v.448), the Sītavana,where the Buddha went to visit Sona (A.iii.374), the river Sappinī,on the banks of which lived various Paribbājakas,including Sarabha (A.i.185; ii.29,176), the Paribbājakārama of Udumbarikā, the residence of Nigrodha,near the Moranivāpa on the bank of the lake Sumāgadhā (D.iii.39),and the park Maddakucchi,where the Buddha was removed after the injury to his foot (DhA.ii.164). The Sūkara-khatalena was on the slope of Gijjhakūta,and there the Buddha was once visited by Dīghanakha (S.v.233; M.i.497). Jīvaka's mango-grove lay between Gijjhakūta and the walls of Rājagaha (DA.i.150).
The Gijjhakūta was so called,either because its peak was like a vulture's beak,or because it was the resort of many vultures (SNA.ii.417; AA.i.412; MA.i.291,etc).
Cunningham (CAGI.534),on the authority of both Fa Hien and Hiouen Thsang,identifies Gijjhakūta with the modern Sailagiri,about two and a half miles to the north-east of the old town.It is also called Giriyek Hill.Gijjhakūta is sometimes referred to as Gijjhapabbata (J.ii.50; iii.255,484) and as Gijjha.J.vi.204,212.

I THINK I was the only one who retreated to the seclusion of the bedroom this past holiday. Everybody else I know seemed to have gone to some place far. Friendship went to the Lone Star State. Harryboy took the bus then the plane to the Lion City. And a lot went either all the way north or all the way south of the country. Though nothing beats this one text message from Brother: "Now in vatican inside sistine chapel."
I realized this more when, going back to my desk from a marathon meeting that lasted all through lunch time, a pile of lusciously – and even coyly – sweet treats from major local destinations almost rendered my office space unrecognizable. I gravitate towards food so I didn't care at first if I was at the right place.
I went through each pack of local delicacy unforgivingly fast and unrelenting. And as I went over the fine print on the plastic bags and the paper boxes, I thought it would be fun to plot their places of origin on a map of the Philippines.
I couldn't help but wonder, does every province have a local delicacy they can truly brag about? As for those I've already plotted here, I concede that they have all the right to be given away as gifts. Though I'm not the type to turn down a free meal. Or even the simplest of edible treats.
To all of those who remembered me, thanks!
*Pasalubong doesn't really translate in Filipino, I think. I think it is the contraction of "pang" (for) and "salubong" (welcome or meeting up). So "pasalubong" is a gift or token souvenir that you give someone you meet again after a short while of being away. That's the best way I can put it!

Ready To Eat Meals
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
What are Eversafe MRE Meal Kits ?
Eversafe MRE Meal Kits are complete "Meals Ready to Eat" Kits Manufactured by The Wornick Company . All the contents are fully cooked and can be eaten hot or cold. Each MRE Meal Kit has an average of 1,000-1,250 calories, which replicates the calorie count of a complete meal. There is no need to add water to an MRE Meal Kit . Simply open the pouch and enjoy!
What are the benefit and its uses of MRE Meal Kits ?
Some of the benefits of the are:
- Good taste
- Calorie count – Each MRE Meal Kit has an average of 1,000-1,250 calories, which replicates the calorie count of a complete meal.
- Long Shelf life that can range between 5 to 10 years without refrigeration!
- Not Freeze Dried! Moisture, gravy and sauces are retained in their natural form.
- Ready to eat. These meals are ready to eat right from the pouch at room temperature.
- They can be heated in 5 minutes with boiling water or with our flameless heater pouches.
- Very portable and easy to carry
- Easy to open – As opposed to canned food you don't need a special tool or special skills to open it . You just tear open the pouch and you are ready to eat!
What are common uses of MRE Meal Kits ?
MRE Meal Kits " Meals Ready to Eat " were originally developed by the Department of Defense in response to a series of problems presented by previous field rations and used only in the military , but the truth is that MRE Meal Kits are perfect for any outdoor use and/or emergency situation. The special pouches they use provide a long shelf stable without refrigeration. Many private entities, law enforcement, hospitals, fire departments, FEMA, Red Cross and government agencies storage depend on MRE Meal Kits as a part of their emergency plan for food supplies.
We are also seeing more campers, hikers and other extreme outdoor sport and activity people use them. After all, they are a complete meal, ready to eat, portable, and light weight.
What is the Shelf Life of an Eversafe MRE Meal Kit ?
It is safe to say that Eversafe MRE Meal Kits will last three years from the date of pack as long as they are kept at the right temperature, which is 80 degrees Fahrenheit. MRE Meal Kits can last longer than three years, even at higher temperatures, but the contents tend lose their flavor and consistency, and eventually you probably won't want to eat them. There are a number of web sites that have a lot of information about shelf life.
Freezing an MRE Meal retort pouch will not destroy the food inside, but repeated freezing increases the chance that the pouch lamination will fail. MRE Meal pouches are designed to withstand 1,000 flexes, but repetitive freezing does increase the failure rate by a small fraction of a percent.
What is included in a typical Eversafe MRE Meal Kit ?
Each MRE Complete Meal Pouch Typically Includes:
|Variety of beef, chicken, pork, tuna, or vegetarian entrees
|Regular and/or vegetable cracker, or flour tortillas.
|Single or assortment fruit flavored drink mix or dairy shakes
|Variety of portion controlled, snacks and/or spreads
|1-Dining packet
|Spoon, coffee, creamer, sugar, salt, pepper , towel and napkin
|Heater pouch
|1- Waterproof outer bag
|Bag, EVSF Basic Pouch

Menu Components: Menus are Suggestions Only Final Menus , may vary depending of product availability and what Wornick Foods Is manufacturing
Can I pick my own components and Menus ?
We only sell EverSafe™ MRE Meal Kits manufactured by The Wornick Company "As is " in complete and sealed, fresh and Original Packs and Cases.
Components and Menus may vary depending of product availability and what Wornick Foods Is currently manufacturing.
How many MRE Meal Kits I need per day ?
Each Eversafe MRE Meal Kit provides between 1,000 to 1,250 average Calories which equals 1/3 of the recommended daily allowance of necessary nutrients( vitamins and minerals) of the Military . EVERSAFE MRES recommends the consumption of 2- 3 Eversafe MRE Meal Kits per person per day depending on the physical activity. This means that a complete case would provide a full 4 to 6 days supply of food for one person.
What do MRE Meal Kits s Taste Like?
That's a pretty subjective question and obviously depending on whom you speak with you will get a different answer. Just like canned goods, you either like them or you don't. Many people feel that MRE Meal Kits are just as good if not better than canned food. MRE Meal Kits are very convenient and there are people who enjoy them enough to eat them regularly when they need a quick meal for lunch or dinner. To be clear, these are not going to be as good as home cooked meals, but they are not designed to be. They are designed to last and that home cooked meal won't last more than a week, let alone 3 years, but they are surprisingly good.
Are Eversafe MRE Meal Kits Gluten Free , Nuts Free , Sugar Free?
Eversafe MRE Meal Kits are NOT guaranteed to be Gluten,Nuts or Sugar Free . Sugar, Wheat and Nut byproducts are generally found in some Meal Kit components. A Nutritional Insert with complete information is included in each Meal Kit for your information and your special needs.
Are MRE Meal Dehydrated or Freeze-Dried?
No. MRE Meals are totally different. Unlike dehydrated or freeze dried foods which both require water to reconstitute them, MRE Meals are precooked "in the pouch" and retain their full moisture like canned food items, just with a much longer shelf-life.
Can MRE Meals be Eaten Cold?
Yes. Each MRE Meal entree can be eaten cold, directly from the pouch. Most likely you will enjoy eating MRE Meals hot more than you will like eating them cold, but for certain if you find yourself in a situation where you cannot, for whatever reason, heat it up, they are perfectly safe to eat cold.
What's the Best Way to Warm/Heat Up an MRE Meal ?
U. S. soldiers and thousands of Emergency Relief workers around the world have been forced to eat MREs cold. They weren't intended to be eaten cold, but one of their great advantages is that they can be. MREs have served their purpose well with no reheating in personal emergencies, family emergencies, and city or state emergencies (earthquakes, toxic spills, hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, floods, etc.).
MRE chemical flameless heater pouches can be bought separately or they may come with each MRE Meal Kit . Placing the MRE Meal in the chemical heater pouch provides a high tech away to heat an MRE pouch with no fire or flame. Adding water will cause a harmless chemical reaction which produces heat and warms the food pouch within 5-10 minutes, safely and quietly. Simply follow the instructions on the pouch.
If you don't have a heater pouch, MRE pouches can be heated in a variety of different ways depending on the situation. Below you will find a few additional and common ways of heating them.
1) Boiling for 3-5 minutes – take the pouch from outer carton and place it in clean boiling water heated from available sources: fire, heating tabs, or stoves.
2) Placing next to a non-liquid heat source: radiator, engine block, or even the human body. Be careful of burning or melting the pouch if the heat source is too hot.
3) You can use the sun to warm the pouch by simply laying it in the sun. It's simple and it works.
4) Microwave 2-3 min. after removing it from the pouch. The pouch contains an aluminum, non-microwaveable layer which gives the pouch such a long shelf life.
No matter how you heat your MRE entree meal, although the foil pouch is very strong and durable, it can be damaged if too high a temperature is applied. NEVER apply direct flame to the pouch like from a BBQ or campfire. The outer and inner layers of plastic laminate will melt and contaminated the food.
Why should I store food?
We have all seen the recent shows on tv that showcase families and individuals storing years and years worth of food in case there is some kind of global catastrophe. More and more families and individuals are becoming better prepared all the time and we believe you should as well. The world is an uncertain place and as we watch the news and see the instability around the globe, it's easy to become concerned. For most people, however, this is not the reason why you should store food.
Depending on what part of the country you live in, the reasons are simple. If you live along the Southeast coast of the United States, hurricanes are a real threat. As we have seen in the recent past, a strong hurricane can knock out power for weeks or more. A supply of food, and especially water, is extremely important. Food within the refrigerator will spoil long before the power comes on after a strong storm. In an area like the West Coast, earthquakes can be a problem. Not only could you be left without power, you might also be trapped by roads that have either caved in or are covered with debris. Having a store of food and water on hand at all times is really a necessity that most people don't pay attention to. The U.S. government's HOMELAND DEFENSE DEPARTMENT recommends that all individuals and families should have an emergency food reserve, 72 hour emergency kits, etc. Having a backup food reserve could end up being one of the most important purchases you make for you and your family. This purchase can bring you peace of mind that if ANYTHING were to happen, whether an act of God or an act of terrorism, your family will have the supplies it needs until help arrives.

We\'ve all heard the saying "that\'s like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic", to describe someone paying too much attention to a trivial issue while avoiding the bigger one.
Well, we have a classic example today from the Washington Post: the "fact check" by Michelle Ye Hee Lee (no I am not making that name up), to see if former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was correct in saying that al sharpton was a guest 80 – 85 times in the Obama White House.
sharpton, as I hope you know, is a race hustling, anti-Semitic, Black supremacist, serial deadbeat/tax cheat, who has about as much business being invited to the White House – even once – as david duke does to the next Anti-Defamation League convention.
But Ms. Lee and the Washington Post, evidently, are less concerned with the impropriety of sharpton ever being there as they are with the exact number mentioned by Mr. Giuliani.
Could this "fact-check" possibly be more vacuous? I don\'t know how. But there it is anyway. A "key" excerpt:
Giulianisaid he took the high end of figures reported in Fox News, whichranged from 60 to 85 visits. The outlets reporting Sharpton\'svisits used the White House visitors\'logs, so we looked at those figures. At first glance, thereare 82 visits logged for Al Sharpton, Alfred Sharpton or Alfred C.Sharpton – all variations of Sharpton\'s name.
Ofthe 82 visits logged for Sharpton, there were 10 entries thateither appear to be duplicates, or are canceled appointments. Weidentified duplicates using the appointment start time; presumably,there was one Al Sharpton in a meeting starting at the exact samehour and time, in the same location, for the same purpose. Thedatabase even logged meetings that are canceled. That means therewere at least 72 instances since Obama took office where Sharptonvisited the White House for official business.
And it goes on from there.
Assuming you have an IQ above 37, I expect that you are now thinking something along the lines of "What difference does it make whether the actual number was 82 or 72 – or, for that matter, 62 or 52 or 42 or 12? Why in hell is this lowlife EVER in the White House?" And how would the difference between 82 and 72 visits bear on the point Rudy Giuliani was making, that the race-baiting, police-hating sharpton is a frequent visitor to the White House, which is seen in negative terms by police officers, both in New York and around the country?
Incredibly, however, the Washington Post, and Michelle Ye Hee Lee, make it clear that they are far more interested in determining the exact number of visits than any of that other trivial stuff.
There are many reasons that journalists, once trusted by a great many people in this country, are now among the least credible groups of them all – as low as just 6% seeing them as "very trustworthy" in a poll taken just last year.
Maybe, just maybe, this affords us a glimpse into why.

Ottawa airport to conduct emergency drill Thursday night Back to video
"Most of it will be sequestered away from the main passenger area, but people may see some of them walking around," said airport spokeswoman Krista Kealey.
Several emergency vehicles will also be parked outside, she said.
The airport has taken to social media to alert the public and announcements will be made over the airport's public address system.
The airport is required by Transport Canada to conduct the annual exercise to test its emergency response system and policies. Kealey would not reveal details of the drill.
"We never say what it is in advance. Even some people here at the airport don't know what it's going to be."

What can Surgiderm 30 be used for?
Surgiderm 30 Increase volume and reduce deep wrinkles in the eye, lips, mouth, chin and cheek area
Treating medium to deep skin depressions
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural substance found inside the human body. It's key properties are to keep the skin hydrated whilst adding plumpness. HA naturally breaks down in the body during metabolism and is then replaced. However as we get older and our metabolism slows down, replacement of HA is less often which results in less hydrated skin and less volume in the skin.
Medical professionals have been using HA in arthritis treatment and during eye surgery.
What's in the box?
2 x 0,8ml syringes
What are the associated side effects with Surgiderm 30?
Some swelling, bruising and redness may occur, as well as itchiness, pain and minor lumps at the area of injection. Other reported reactions include hypersensitivity to hyaluronic acid. Reversible colouring although rare has also been reported as one side effect too.
All side effects are usually resolved in a few days.
Who should not use Surgiderm 30?
Pregnant or lactating women should not use Surgiderm, as well as any individuals prone to develop skin scarring reactions.
Surgiderm should not be used alongside any other skin treatments such as laser or dermabrasion treatment, especially within the same session.

Review for Cinder (Lunar Chronicles #1)
4 comments:
I'm a judge again for the 2012 YA Book Battle, and this year's theme is retold fairy tales! I thought of that when I read your discussion question. :) If you want to check it out, Sarah, HERE's the intro and HERE's the longlisted titles!ReplyDeleteReplies
Yeah, I saw the list the other day while browsing blogs, it looks amazing! I've only read about 5 or so on the list but I've heard of some of the others. Fun contest to judge, good luck! I'm going to have to add a lot of those books to my TBR =DDelete
I am always so reluctant to pick up fairy tale retellings, but this book got high ratings from all my friends, which forces me to reconsider. Despite your issue with predictability (fairy tales usually are predictable, so it's what I would expect), I think this sounds wonderful and fresh.ReplyDelete
I just finished reading a recap of an event that included Meyer and she seemed so cool and funny.
Great review, Sarah!

Only two bays wide, No. 49 East 68th Street is given interest and importance by a twin-arched loggia at street level. This is made possible by having the wall of the first floor set back about six feet from the building Iine. The arch on the right leads to the arched entrance doorway, while that on the left leads directly to the basement stairs protected by a low iron railing and gate. An arched window is set above the basement entrance door.

Uprightness! There's a wry thought
for the nesh lad, wet beyond his years,

I recently read that we all have a reflex to step back from high places; some people instinctivly misread this signal to mean that they have the urge to jump, and it can cause them extreme anxiety. Just knowing where the fear was coming from helped me a lot. A child therapist would be able to help her understand her fears better.
Pigrome, a redshirt sophomore who played in 11 games with one start in 2016, began last season as the first string quarterback. In the Terps' opener at Texas, he tore his right ACL after completing 9 of 12 passes for 175 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. He also notched a rushing touchdown before Hill had to enter the game in relief.
An all volunteer search and rescue team from Alameda County is picking through that ash. Among its members are dogs trained by handlers to nose out human remains. Sonoma County Sergeant Dave Thompson oversees this work.. That sort of thing happens a few times, but I think the example you thinking of is from Season 1 Episode 2 "Identity". Michael is posing as a former convict, Peter Jordan, who was cellmates with the mark old friend Paco. There a voiceover of Michael talking about how to separate a group, but how it hard if the group is paranoid about new people.

The stakeholders of a firm are those people that have some positive interest in the firm. These stakeholders include investors and employees but may include others such as suppliers and customers who have an interest in the firm's success. The goal is to set a plan to fully utilize the firm's capabilities and resources for the benefit of the firm as well as its stakeholders.
It fine if you want to keep your inner circle as mostly Asians, but at least interact and acknowledge the other members of society. I don know if they are just constantly on guard or what but they so tense all the time. In every workplace or public setting I ever been, it always the people who try to interact with new people and cracking jokes and not being offended all the time who are the most popular..
Another thing to make a note of is that if you are dancing with a sweaty guy who is holding you closely, you might end up with a sweat print on the front of your shirt, which I saw happen to a girl before. I was looking at her wondering how she got this huge dark sweaty spot on the front of her shirt, and she said it was because she danced closely with a sweaty guy. So if this happens to you, go to the ladies room, take off your shirt and blow dry it under the hand dryer.

Standard Battle Clauses
Scherox :: Pokemon :: Pokemon :: Tournaments
Page 1 of 1
Standard Battle Clauses
These are the clauses that are used during Pokemon battles on this site. They are standard among competitive forums and unless otherwise noted are used. If you would like to have battles that don't follow one of these rules that is fine but only when you and your opponent agree to them and you are not competing in a forum hosted event (ex. the Gym Challenge)
Evasion Clause
Moves that boost evasion (i.e. Double Team and Minimize) are not allowed. *Acupressure is allowed due to it being a random chance to increase evasion*
Sleep Clause
Only one Pokémon on a team can be asleep at any one time. Self-induce sleep via rest does not activate Sleep Clause.
OHKO Clause
One-Hit KO moves are not allowed. This is due to the ability to completely turn a match around by one lucky hit by a 30% accuracy.
Species Clause
You can only use one of any Pokémon on your team. (ex. having 2 Shuckle is illegal)
Self KO Clause
If both players have only one Pokémon left, moves which KO both the user and the opponent are not allowed (ex. Explosion, Destiny Bond). If recoil damage would cause a tie, Self KO Clause does not activate, and the player who last attacked is the winner.
New Item Clause
All Pokémon on a team must hold different items, except 2 leftovers can be used due to most teams having multiple tanks. If it only says Item clause then only 1 of any item can be used.
Uber Clause
Pokemon in the Uber tier are not to be used unless otherwise stated.

Benjamin Lim case: Doing right by two young lives
The mood in the chamber was sombre as Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam and Acting Education Minister (Schools) Ng Chee Meng delivered their ministerial statements on Benjamin Lim, a teenager who took his life on Jan 26 after being questioned by police.
Once the ministers were done with their speeches, though, the questions flew thick and fast as MPs rose eagerly to seek clarifications. They raised issues in two important areas.
First, whether enough safeguards are in place to protect the interests of young people under police investigation. Several MPs expressed concern that Benjamin, who was 14, was not accompanied by an adult - whether a parent or teacher or counsellor from his school - when he was taken to the police station for questioning.
Dr Intan Azura Mokhtar (Ang Mo Kio GRC) said that, as a mother of two teenagers, she wished to know if the police could have waited half an hour or one hour for Benjamin's parents to arrive before starting to question him. "He didn't have any prior record," she noted, "and as a 14-year-old, whom I still regard as a child, he must have felt quite frightened to be there, being interviewed by the police without a significant adult present".
Mr Desmond Choo (Tampines GRC) echoed her sentiments. He asked if the police believed Benjamin's offence was so grave and urgent that they could not interview him later, after his parents arrived. The offence in this case was molestation. An 11-year-old girl had made a police report against Benjamin and there was CCTV footage to show that he had followed her into a lift and touched a part of her body.
In his speech, Mr Shanmugam spoke of the wide range of youth crime that the police have to act against. Every year, some 1,300 young people on average are picked up for a range of offences.
"Young people get picked up for a wide range of offences, from rioting, sexual assault, physical assault to murder," Mr Shanmugam said. "Some could be involved in very serious matters. Police need to move quickly, arrest, investigate before the others (including other gang members) destroy evidence."
He also stressed that, with young offenders, the police sought where possible to avoid criminalising the conduct so as to give the young accused person a second chance.
They also have programmes to help rehabilitate these young offenders. Some 88 per cent of those who underwent the six-month guidance programme have gone on to lead crime-free lives.
Still, on police protocol which the Ministry of Home Affairs is reviewing, MPs signalled where they believed there was room for improvement. Ms Denise Phua (Jalan Besar GRC) sought an extension to the Appropriate Adults scheme, which assists suspects with mental and intellectual disabilities when they have to give statements to police. Ms Phua pointed out that in Britain, a similar scheme covered young persons aged under 18. "I'd like the minister to consider this," she said.
Non-Constituency MP Leon Perera asked if the Education Ministry had a regime to provide counselling and other support to students being investigated. Mr Ng said he would look into whether such a regime should be set up.
The second important area that MPs sought clarification on was the online media and its reporting of the case. Mr Shanmugam had taken aim at website The Online Citizen (TOC) for what he called a "planned, orchestrated campaign" of some 20 articles that used falsehoods "to tar the police unfairly".
Dr Tan Wu Meng (Jurong GRC) highlighted a TOC article that quoted Benjamin's father as saying that "without social media, especially TOC, the case would have died down a long time ago". Mr Shanmugam said the claim that the case would have died down without TOC was "ridiculous" as a coroner's inquiry is due to take place. That was made clear in a police statement issued on Feb 1.
Still, Ms Jessica Tan (East Coast GRC) said "we can't ignore the fact that the online media plays a very important part in communication". She put this question to Mr Shanmugam: "In situations where it's very emotive and very sensitive, while I totally understand your stance of handling the information very carefully... is there a way to share at least some information with online news sites?"
Mr Shanmugam had explained in his speech that he had decided early on to refrain from commenting too much or in detail out of respect for Benjamin's family, who needed time and space to grieve, and because the coroner's inquiry is the right forum to deal with the relevant facts. In response to Ms Tan, he said the law of contempt applied both online and offline. With a coroner's inquiry pending, the media should refrain from making allegations of fact which may be the subject of dispute during the inquiry.
Mr Shanmugam's carefully calibrated statement included a stout defence of the police officers involved in the case who, as he put it, "cannot defend themselves and are doing their job, every day, in difficult circumstances".
He also reminded the House that two young lives had been damaged by this "very sad case", a 14-year-old boy who died and an 11-year-old girl who has been traumatised. To calls from MPs who wanted the investigation processes involved in this case reviewed, the minister pledged to do so, saying: "We must do right by these two young lives."
Correction: An earlier version of the story gave the wrong date for when Benjamin Lim died. We are sorry for the error.

Three health projects in Liverpool have been selected by the Health Foundation, an independent health care charity, to be part of its £1.5 million innovation programme 'Innovating for Improvement'.
The sixth round of the Innovating for Improvement programme, announced today, will support 21 health care projects across the UK, including three in Liverpool, to help improve health care delivery and/or the way people manage their own health care in the UK.
The three local health organisations which were successfully awarded the funding include NHS Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group, Alder Hey Children's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.
The Innovating for Improvement programme will run for 15 months. Each of the three projects in Liverpool will receive up to £75,000 of funding to support delivery, as well as the evaluation of how the innovation improves the quality of health care.
The three Liverpool-based projects set to benefit from the funding will each focus on improving a different area of health care for patients with respiratory health needs in the city.
NHS Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) will use this funding to build on the success of Liverpool's Advice on Prescription in Primary Care project, which was set up in partnership with Liverpool's Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) to help alleviate poverty, hardship and other common social risk factors that negatively impact on a person's health. The project will identify new care pathways that would benefit from the scheme, and test it in respiratory services.
Dr Janet Bliss, Clinical Director for Community Services at NHS Liverpool CCG said:
"We are delighted with the news of these three Innovating for Improvement funding awards, each of which will be used to help develop cutting-edge health projects that will directly benefit local patients.
"The Advice on Prescription Project is a ground-breaking scheme which enables all Liverpool GP's to refer their patients to CAB advisors for help on a range of social issues such as housing, homelessness, job loss and debt.
"Being part of the programme will enable us to continue to build on the successful work already being undertaken through this scheme, with the aim of reducing many of the social risk factors that can negatively impact on people's health and wellbeing."
Caryn Matthews, Chief Executive at Citizens Advice South Liverpool, said:
"This new funding will mean we can build on our work tackling the root cause of people's health problems in Liverpool.
"Over the last 18 months, the Advice on Prescription project we run with the NHS Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group has supported thousands of people across Liverpool with problems they've had with debt, their housing or benefits. The project means that local GPs can refer patients who have non-medical problems to our service for practical help - this reduces repeat appointments for GPs and we've found that 80% of referred patients say their health and wellbeing improved.
"With the support of the Health Foundation we can now go further and use our data to help the CCG get a better understanding of the factors that cause problems in people's lives and negatively impact on their respiratory health."
The Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust will use funding from the Health Foundation to improve how heroin smokers access chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) community services across Liverpool and help reduce the time they need to spend in hospital.
A large number of heroin users in Merseyside are at risk of developing and dying from COPD, a lung disease associated with smoking that causes symptoms such as cough and breathlessness.
The innovative project, which is being led by consultant respiratory physician Dr Hassan Burhan, is engaging with patients by working in partnership with drug services, NHS Liverpool CCG, and 2Bio Ltd's Impact Science Team who provide innovation services to the Trust and have supported the development of this project.
Dr Hassan Burhan, Consultant Respiratory Physician, Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospital NHS Trust said:
"Heroin users often don't engage with community services, which can lead to late diagnosis of COPD and missed opportunities to slow how the disease progresses. Up to one in two heroin smokers have COPD, and one in eight admissions with exacerbations of COPD to our Trust are in patients with a history of heroin smoking.
"We are really pleased to have secured this award and look forward to implementing our ideas to improve COPD management and outcomes in this hard to reach group of patients."
Alder Hey Children's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust will use the funding to help evaluate the effectiveness of their SCORE programme, a new healthcare model that empowers children with asthma to understand their condition, self-manage it and participate in activities. The model involves an initial consultation to set goals and optimise treatments, a peer-group educational intervention, and two blocks of activity.
Dr Ian Sinha, Consultant Respiratory Paediatrician at Alder Hey Children's Hospital said:
"We are delighted to have received this funding award for this new approach to asthma treatment, which is centered around children and communities. We hope to demonstrate that it is both clinically effective and cost-effective through the programme, and to be able to share this learning more widely.
"More than ever we need to be thinking creatively about new ways of working in health, and each of these innovative projects highlights that Liverpool is a forward thinking city with regards to new models of care."
Sarah Henderson, Associate Director from the Health Foundation said:
"We are delighted to be supporting three fantastic projects in Liverpool to enhance care for patients in the local area, with a focus on improving respiratory services. We are keen to support innovation at the frontline across all sectors of health and care services, and I am pleased that we will be able to support these ambitious teams to develop and test their ideas over the next year.
"Our aim is to promote the effectiveness and impact of the teams' innovations and show how they have succeeded in improving the quality of health care, with the intention of these being widely adopted across the UK."

We feel it is vital to keep you informed about the current tax reform, active in in both the House and Senate. CGP appreciates the work you have done to help minimize the potential impact to charitable giving, and there is still more work to do.
The memorandum issued last week by the Joint Commission on Taxation clearly outlined the anticipated changes in the number of tax payers filing itemized deductions and the amount of revenue anticipated to be raised by charitable giving that is no longer eligible for a deduction. The changes are significant and support several studies and estimates by a variety of organizations that all reflect a decline in charitable giving under the proposed legislation.
The Senate is beginning its markup sessions for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act now. Among the amendments already proposed are three amendments CGP and the sector should support immediately.
Please contact your senators and express the need for these amendments to be adopted into the bill that will go to the floor for a vote in the Senate as early as next week.
If one of your senators is on the Finance Committee it is especially important for you to contact them and ask them for their support of these amendments. Although the Committee is controlled by Republicans, all committee members have voice during the markup sessions. If both sides support the amendments, they may be adopted into the bill.
If your senators are not members of the Finance Committee, please contact their offices and ask that they reach out to the Finance Committee to express their support of the amendments. Establishing support is crucial during the markup period and for any potential floor vote in the Senate.
Thank you for your support and effort to help us to advocate for a healthy and strong charitable sector. Each and every individual effort matters. If you are able to forward this on to increase our impact, please do so. CGP will remain active and keep you informed as tax reform continues to move through legislature.

Red spider
Red Spider (Tetranychus) is a sucking mite and invisible or barely visible to the naked eye. Generally, its presence is recognized by large numbers of minute pin-point dots on leaf surfaces, and on the under-side of the leaf very fine grains of red may sometimes be seen. Although they are not true spiders (arachnids) they spin a fine web which is another diagnostic aid. These insects have an extremely rehabilitating effect on plants, and cause leaf drop and even the death of the entire plant. Prior to the general use of DDT this pest was virtually unknown and it is possible that the widespread use of DDT eradicated its natural enemies. Red spider mite is today one of the greatest threats to world agriculture. The treatment requires fortnightly sprays with organophosphate based insecticides during infestations. Predatory mites are also becoming commercially available for the control of mites and scale insects.
The true mites (Hemitarsonemus) show similar symptoms as red spiders, but also cause leaf distortion.
Treatment is with miticide sprays as for red spider.

Pramipexole 2mg per ML X 30ml
Pramipexole is a peptide that is also known as Miarpex, Mirapexin, and Sifrol. It has a molecular mass of 211.324, and its molecular formula is C10H17N3S.
Pramipexole at a Glance
According to scientific study based on animal test subjects, it has been determined that Pramipexole acts as an agonist at D2S, D2L, D3, and D4 receptors. Specifically, it has been determined that its ability to bind to D3 receptors is greater than its ability to bind with D2S, D2L, and D3 receptors. While the precise mechanism of the peptide is largely unknown, it is suggested that its relationship and affinity to these particular receptors works in conjunction with the regulation of assorted neurological processes.
Theoretical Benefits of Pramipexole
Despite the lack of precise knowledge concerning Pramipexole's mechanism of action, scientific study based on animal test subjects has determined that the peptide could be conceptually linked to the treatment of several neurological disorders. For example, it is thought that its ability to stimulate dopamine receptors in the striatum could possibly make it an effective aid in the battle against Parkinson's disease. Other neuropharmacological evidence brought about by studying animal test subjects suggests that the presence of the peptide could make it useful to treat Restless Leg Syndrome, or RLS. This is brought about by the notion that mild striatal presynaptic dopaminergic dysfunction may be linked to the pathogenesis of the condition. Further studies on animal test subjects derived the notion that the peptide could be instrumental an treating bipolar depression.
Strictly for Controlled Environments
It should be noted that any findings or observations that relate to Pramipexole should exclusively be done within a strictly controlled environment, such as a medical research facility or a laboratory. Any research that has been derived regarding Pramipexole is due to scientific tests conducted in a controlled environment only.

Matthew 27:45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
Amos 8:9 "And on that day," declares the Lord GOD, "I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight.
The sin of the entire world was being paid for during these three dark hours as Jesus the Christ hung on a tree. Past, present, and future sin of mankind was placed on the God-man, Jesus Christ. The sun that was created by Christ, for Christ, and through Christ now retreats as the sinless Creator pays the sin-debt for his creation. Matthew records that darkness covered the land from the sixth hour to the ninth hour (noon to three p.m.). Though it is uncertain if the darkness was over the entire earth or over the surrounding region, it is clear that the sin-cursed creation reflected its own de-creation and undoing in response to the Father's displeasure against man's sin.
Point to Ponder and for Prayer:
In Romans 8:19-21, Paul reminds us that creation itself waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God because then creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption to obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. Because of Jesus' death for sin and resurrection, a day is coming for a new creation with a new heavens and a new earth where night will be no more, where no light of lamp or sun will be needed because the Lord God will be the light for his servants (Rev. 22:5).
