5 Step Guide to Growing Gorgeous Garlic | Do you know where your garlic comes from? One of the most important reasons to grow your own is to avoid toxic chemicals and irradiation (that inhibit sprouting and extend shelf life).* Garlic … how safe to eat is yours? A few years back I didn’t even think about the garlic I ate … but then I became interested in the story behind the food I was eating. The majority of the world’s garlic is grown in China and is sprayed with chemicals and bleached white with chlorine during importation quarantine processes, not to mention the thousands of food miles clocked up. But if you really want to gag on your garlic, according to the CEO of the Australian Garlic Industry Association, “some garlic growers over there (China) use raw human sewage to fertilise their crops, and I don’t believe the Australian quarantine regulations are strict enough in terms of bacteria testing on imported produce” … so you might want to think again before you reach for that perfect white bulb in your supermarket!

Self-driving vehicles offer potential benefits, policy challenges for lawmakers Self-driving vehicles offer the promise of significant benefits to society, but raise several policy challenges, including the need to update insurance liability regulations and privacy concerns such as who will control the data generated by this technology, according to a new RAND Corporation study. "Our research finds that the social benefits of autonomous vehicles—including decreased crashes, increased mobility and increases in fuel economy—will outweigh the likely disadvantages," said James Anderson, lead author of the study and a senior behavioral scientist at RAND, a nonprofit research organization. The study, intended as a guide for state and federal policymakers, explores communications, regulatory challenges and liability issues raised by autonomous vehicle technology. Several states (Nevada, Florida, California, Minnesota) as well as Washington, D.C., have created laws to regulate the use of autonomous vehicle technology. Other states also have proposed legislation.
Nigella sativa Nigella sativa (black-caraway,[2] also known as nigella or kalonji), often called black cumin,[3][4] is an annual flowering plant in the family Ranunculaceae, native to south and southwest Asia. Nigella sativa grows to 20–30 cm (7.9–11.8 in) tall, with finely divided, linear (but not thread-like) leaves. The flowers are delicate, and usually colored pale blue and white, with five to ten petals. Etymology[edit] The genus name Nigella is a diminutive of the Latin niger (black), referring to the seeds.[5] Common names[edit] In English, Nigella sativa and its seed are variously called black-caraway, black-cumin, fennel-flower, nigella, nutmeg-flower, Roman-coriander,[3] and kalonji (from Hindi).[6] Blackseed and black caraway may also refer to Bunium persicum.[7] Culinary uses[edit] The seeds of Nigella sativa are used as a spice in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines. The dry-roasted nigella seeds flavor curries, vegetables and pulses. History[edit] Chemistry[edit] Medicinal use[edit] Nigella sativa
Alternaturel – Les plantes sauvages comestibles Si l’on imagine le mode de vie de nos ancêtres avant le début de l’agriculture, on se représente le plus souvent l’image d’un chasseur/cueilleur. Arpentant alors son environnement qu’il connait à la perfection, à la recherche de gibier, et sachant utiliser également les différentes plantes qui l’entourent pour son alimentation, ou encore pour soigner différents maux. Aujourd’hui, si l’on se promène en pleine nature, que ce soit à la campagne, en montagne, au bord de la mer ou même en ville, on peut observer ici et là de nombreuses plantes qui sont le plus souvent méprisées ou ignorées et qui ont pourtant beaucoup à nous apporter. Précautions particulières: Si vous désirez vous lancer dans la cueillette de plantes sauvages, certaines précautions sont à prendre afin de vous éviter tout désagrément : La liste qui va suivre et non-exhaustive et concerne de nombreuses plantes connues et facilement identifiables.

Grow your own lemongrass! I love the smell of lemongrass: fresh, clean and zesty. My favourite way to use it up is in this lemongrass drink that I learned from one of my favorite local restaurants. Back then, lemongrass was a hard-to-find ingredient and since I’d never tried it in a drink, it was difficult for me to figure what the chef had added to a mundane sweet soda. The waiter was kind enough to share the recipe, and now I can make it myself at home. Now I’m even more thrilled because I can have my favourite drink whenever I want because I finally grow my own lemongrass! And you know the good news? Just keep changing the water every day or every second day at most. Have a look at these weekly progress photos in case, just like me, you didn’t believe that growing lemongrass could be this easy: Oh, and here’s an old post I had written back in 2007 about lemongrass.

Scoperta Russa sul DNA: le parole e le frequenze influenzano e riprogrammano il DNA | Salute e libertà si conquistano ogni giorno Nel tempo dell’inganno universale, dire la verità è un atto rivoluzionario – G. OrwellLa fantasia conta più della conoscenza – A. Einstein Il DNA umano è un Internet biologico, superiore, sotto molti aspetti, a quello artificiale. Solo il 10% del nostro DNA viene utilizzato per costruire le proteine. I linguisti russi hanno scoperto che il codice genetico, specialmente nell’apparentemente inutile 90%, segue le stesse regole di tutte le nostre lingue umane. Anche il biofisico e biologo molecolare russo Pjotr Garjajev e i suoi colleghi hanno esplorato il comportamento vibratorio del DNA. La sostanza del DNA vivente (in tessuto vivo, non in vitro), reagirà sempre ai raggi laser del linguaggio modulato e anche alle onde radio, se si utilizzano le frequenze appropriate. Per esempio il gruppo di ricercatori di Garjajeva ha avuto successo nel provare che con questo metodo si possono riparare i cromosomi danneggiati dai raggi X. Un esempio in Natura.

List of herbs with known adverse effects This is a partial list of herbs and herbal treatments with known or suspected adverse effects, either alone or in interaction with other herbs or drugs. Non-inclusion of an herb in this list does not imply that it is free of adverse effects. In general, the safety and effectiveness of alternative medicines have not been scientifically proven[1] and remain largely unknown.[2] Beyond adverse effects from the herb itself, "adulteration, inappropriate formulation, or lack of understanding of plant and drug interactions have led to adverse reactions that are sometimes life threatening or lethal. Most of the adverse effects stated in this list are associated with only a small percentage of cases; they should be understood as potential risks rather than as certainties.
