  • Colours in Nature Colours
    Nature's Wonderful Colours Magdalena KonečnáMagdalena Sedláčková • Jana • Štěpánka Sekaninová Nature is teeming with incredible colours. But have you ever wondered how the colours green, yellow, pink or blue might taste or smell? What could they sound like? Or what would they feel like if you touched them? Nature’s colours are so wonderful ColoursIN NATURE and diverse they inspired people to use the names of plants, animals and minerals when labelling all the nuances. Join us on Magdalena Konečná • Jana Sedláčková • Štěpánka Sekaninová a journey to discover the twelve most well-known colours and their shades. You will learn that the colours and elements you find in nature are often closely connected. Will you be able to find all the links in each chapter? Last but not least, if you are an aspiring artist, take our course at the end of the book and you’ll be able to paint as exquisitely as nature itself does! COLOURS IN NATURE COLOURS albatrosmedia.eu b4u publishing Prelude Who painted the trees green? Well, Nature can do this and other magic. Nature abounds in colours of all shades. Long, long ago people began to name colours for plants, animals and minerals they saw them in, so as better to tell them apart. But as time passed, ever more plants, animals and minerals were discovered that reminded us of colours already named. So we started to use the names for shades we already knew to name these new natural elements. What are these names? Join us as we look at beautiful colour shades one by one – from snow white, through canary yellow, ruby red, forget-me-not blue and moss green to the blackest black, dark as the night sky.

  • Pain Management
    Calming Color Visualization To begin, make yourself comfortable. Adjust your clothing as needed and assume a comfortable position. First, before the calming color relaxation begins, notice how your body feels in this moment. Passively pay attention to the state of your body right now. Do not try to change anything, simply notice how your body and mind feel. Feel your body begin to relax slightly, as your shoulders drop a little lower.... your jaw loosens so your teeth are not touching.... and your eyelids start to feel heavy. Take a deep breath in.... hold it.... and slowly breathe out.... Now just notice your breathing. Your body knows how much air you need. Notice with interest how your breath goes in and out. Feel the pause after you inhale and before you exhale.... and the pause before drawing another breath. Allow your body to relax and your mind to focus on the calming color relaxation. Allow the relaxation to occur naturally.... allow and observe.... Create a picture in your mind of the color red. Imagine red of all shades....You might picture red objects, a red landscape, or just a solid color.....Imagine all of the different tones of red.... roses.... bricks.... apples....sunset....Enjoy the color red. Now allow the color you are imagining to change to orange. Picture the color orange.... infinite shades of orange.... flowers.... pumpkins .... carrots....Fill the entire visual field of your mind's eye with the color orange. Enjoy the color orange. Visualize the color yellow. See in your imagination all the various shades of yellow.

  • Eggplant (Solanum Melongena)
    UC Davis, Vegetable Research and Information Center Home Vegetable Gardening Eggplant (Solanum melongena) Recommended Varieties Disease Resistance Black Beauty Epic TMV Early Bird (very early producer) Dusky TMV Imperial TMV Oriental type lchaban Tycoon White Easter Egg The standard eggplant produces egg-shaped, glossy, purple-black fruit 7 to 10 inches long when fully mature. Only a few plants are needed to meet the average family's needs. The long, slender Japanese eggplant has a thinner skin and more delicate flavor. Both standard and miniature eggplants can be grown successfully in containers, but standard varieties yield a better crop. White, ornamental varieties are available and edible but are of poor eating quality. Plant and handle eggplant in the same way as tomatoes; eggplant is slightly more sensitive to cold than tomatoes. Warm to hot weather throughout the season is necessary for good production. Seeds germinate quickly at 700 to 900 F, and plants should be grown for 8 to 9 weeks before setting them out. Cold temperatures will stop plant and root growth, reducing plant vigor and yields. Using hot caps or row covers protects plants from cold conditions. Though eggplants do well in hot weather, they must have well-drained soil and do not thrive in very humid areas. Pick fruits when they are about 4 to 6 inches in diameter. Test for maturity by pressing with the thumb. If the flesh springs back, the fruit is green; if it does not and an indentation remains, the fruit is mature. Harvest when the fruit is about halfway between these stages.

A survey of the seed catalogs targeting commercial growers in New England shows 65 distinct eggplant varieties available for 2014. In 2013 we trialed 9 varieties at the Gardiner Crops Research farm at URI. Eggplant is native to tropical Asia and eastern Africa, and is a traditional crop in hot-summer areas from southern Europe through the Middle East to India, China, Japan, and Southeast Asia.
