  • How to Sleep Warm Whether You're at Home Or out in the Wilds, a Good Night's Rest Is Important
    How to Sleep Warm Whether you're at home or out in the wilds, a good night's rest is important. Here are some tips to help you sleep snug as a bug in a rug! Each person needs to bring an insulated sleeping pad or cot or blow-up mattress, 2 blankets, preferably wool (polarfleece is ok too), their sleeping bag and pillow. Assemble sleeping gear in the following order: cot (or pad/mattress closest to ground), then warmest blanket, sleeping bag on top of blanket, and blanket #2 on top of all. Strip down to the buff before bedtime and put on all new clothing, including pajamas, sleeping socks, underwear, and sleeping hat. Do not layer clothing as this restricts the amount of warmth the sleeping bag can absorb from your body and prevents it from doing its job. It is okay to put a slumber bag or blanket inside the sleeping bag but slumber bags should not be used in lieu of a sleeping bag. Note: If your feet get cold at any time while camping try changing your socks. Feet get cold due to condensation build up from sweating, and changing socks ensures they are dry and will warm you right up. If a sleeping bag is inadequate or if you do not have extra blankets, the sleeping bag can be put inside a plastic trash bag. Be sure to remove this bag immediately in the morning or the bag will build up too much condensation and get damp. Do not unroll your bag until you are ready to get into it (unless it is down) and re-roll it as soon as you get up in the morning.

  • Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907)
    Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 BuYun Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen During the Tang dynasty, an increased capacity for change created a new value system predicated on the accumulation of wealth and the obsolescence of things that is best understood as fashion. Increased wealth among Tang elites was paralleled by a greater investment in clothes, which imbued clothes with new meaning. Intellectuals, who viewed heightened commercial activity and social mobility as symptomatic of an unstable society, found such profound changes in the vestimentary landscape unsettling. For them, a range of troubling developments, including crisis in the central government, deep suspicion of the newly empowered military and professional class, and anxiety about waste and obsolescence were all subsumed under the trope of fashionable dressing. The clamor of these intellectuals about the widespread desire to be “current” reveals the significant space fashion inhabited in the empire – a space that was repeatedly gendered female. This dissertation considers fashion as a system of social practices that is governed by material relations – a system that is also embroiled in the politics of the gendered self and the body. I demonstrate that this notion of fashion is the best way to understand the process through which competition for status and self-identification among elites gradually broke away from the imperial court and its system of official ranks.

They are available in wide varieties and their preferences may vary according to the regional demands. Easy access of global information and exposure of various bakery products has increased the demand for bakery ingredients. Baking ingredients offer several advantages such as reduced costs, volume enhancement, better texture, colour, and flavour enhancement. For example, ingredients such enzymes improve protein solubility and reduce bitterness in end products, making enzymes one of the most preferred ingredients in the baking industry. Every ingredient in a recipe has a specific purpose. It's also important to know how to mix or combine the ingredients properly, which is why baking is sometimes referred to as a science. There are reactions in baking that are critical to a recipe turning out correctly. Even some small amount of variation can dramatically change the result. Whether its breads or cake, each ingredient plays a part.

It has attempted to create a „new model‟ for Chinese traditional inside painting through the creation of contemporary glass artworks. This is timely because Chinese academic glass teaching is emerging in universities, and cast glass techniques dominate the curriculum. The research offers an example of how traditional methods might be revitalized by one artist to extend the options for Chinese University glass teaching. Potential recipients are glass artists and students as well as curators and collectors. This research mainly used studio-based art practices, inspired by traditional inside painting of Chinese snuff bottles, traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy, influenced by Taoism, together with Western glass painting, printing and calligraphy in order to reduce some of the existing limitations of traditional methods.
