However I can tell you that they are based on Chinese Astrology, and therefore they do work, by using the different types of radiation emitted by each planet in the solar system. In previous years many of my western students have tried the Chinese custom of inviting the Money God into the home to see if it would help.

Light skin mutation stems from one ancestor All instances of a gene mutation that contributes to light skin color in Europeans came from the same chromosome of one person who most likely lived at least 10,000 years ago, according to researchers. While the genetics of skin color is largely unclear, past research using zebrafish by Penn State’s Keith Cheng identified a key gene that contributes to lighter skin color in Europeans and differs from West Africans. In 2005, Cheng reported that one amino acid difference in the gene SLC24A5 is a key contributor to the skin color difference between Europeans and West Africans. “The mutation in SLC24A5 changes just one building block in the protein, and contributes about a third of the visually striking differences in skin tone between peoples of African and European ancestry,” says Cheng, professor of pathology. Lighter skin color may have provided an advantage for the better creation of vitamin D in the lesser sunlight characteristic of northern latitudes. Source: Penn State
Kitchen Medicine Cooking Medicine: Fasting in Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine Ayurveda on Fasting Ayurveda believes that light fasting can greatly benefit the way you feel. Light fasting healthfully stimulates the digestive fire (called Agni in Sanskrit), which in turn more efficiently burns your body's fuel, producing less toxic waste (called Ama in Sanskrit). Good sleep, good digestion, and good elimination equals good health. * Good sleep is essential for restoration and repair of tissues and the mind. * Good digestion is how we extract nutrients from food. * Good elimination is vital for both the immune system and for clearing the body of toxic waste. You could add to this good breathing and good thinking. People often ask me, "What kind of food fast should I do?" In fact, there appears to be no support for complete fasting at all in Chinese medicine. For a week, try having your protein at breakfast and lunch, and having a large plate of mixed steamed veggies for dinner. Ayurveda on Fasting: The Mono-diet Cleanse Fasting is part of Ayurveda. Good thinking.
» Top Tools & Directory C4LPT EmailShare 0EmailShare Learning Technologies Magazine, October 2010 This is a two-part article that looks at the emerging trends in learning tools and the implications for Learning & Development. In this part, Jane Hart, a Social Business Consultant from the Centre for Learning & Performance Technologies, looks at the trends emerging from her annual Top 100 Tools for Learning list. For the last 4 years I have been compiling a list of the Top 100 Tools for Learning generated from the Top 10 Tools contributions of learning professionals worldwide - both from education (teachers, academics, etc) as well as those involved in workplace learning (learning managers, instructional designers, trainers, consultants, analysts, etc). Although it is often pointed out to me that this is a self-selecting bunch of contributors – ones who are perhaps more web savvy than a large number of workplace learning professionals – it generates a huge amount of interest each year. 3- Social tools predominate
Culpeper | The Recipes Project Whilst perusing some seventeenth century recipes for medicines I stumbled across a few curious ingredients. Granted, many of the ingredients found in Johanna St. John’s recipe book – aside from now common herbs and spices like cinnamon or saffron – might look odd to the modern eye. Some of the ingredients that struck me were spermaceti (sperm whale fat); the sole of an old but clean shoe, burnt to ashes; a crab’s eyes, and the black tips of its claws. As I read I couldn’t help but assume that the addition of spices, or the use of wine, sugar, and brandy might have best served to make some of the recipes more palatable. In the mid-seventeenth century Nicholas Culpeper’s Pharmacopoeia Londinensis (1652) heavily criticized the Royal College of Physician’s required inventory for Culpeper and his fellow apothecaries. And he just loved manure, as you may have guessed by now. *Boyle’s manuscript reads: “Take Paracelsus’s Zebethum Occidentale (viz. Works Cited: Ball, Philip. Boyle, Robert.
