Plant sterols as found in almonds may interfere with the absorption of cholesterol and bile acid, and the high amount of unsaturated fat in almonds favors an improved lipid profile, especially when this food replaces other foods high in saturated fat and refined carbohydrate. Almonds also contain phytonutrients that support the growth of beneficial gut microbes. Controlled trials have shown that general nut intake can decrease inflammation, promote healthy blood vessels, and reduce insulin resistance. Interestingly, despite nuts being calorie-dense, research does not support a link with nut intake and weight gain. In fact, they have been associated with less weight gain and a lower risk of obesity, possibly because the fat and fiber content help to improve feelings of satisfaction and fullness. There is limited evidence examining the intake of almonds in large populations. Smaller controlled trials have looked specifically at almonds, but larger observational studies tend to examine nuts in general, because consumption of individual nuts is relatively low in the population. Observational studies looking at intakes of nuts have found a significantly lower risk of heart disease in those eating nuts at least four times a week. Meta-analyses have found that a higher nut intake is associated with reduced risk of total cardiovascular disease, total cancer, and deaths from all causes. These studies had conflicting results in showing a protective effect of nut intake from diabetes, respiratory disease, stroke, and infections. Because earlier scientific evidence suggested a heart disease benefit of eating nuts, in the U. Food and Drug Administration approved manufacturers to state on food labels that eating 1.

Almonds and Health Almonds have been suggested to reduce heart disease risk by lowering total and LDL cholesterol, and exerting anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. They may be purchased whole, sliced, chopped, or slivered. Though they are most often found plain or salted, they are available in honey-roasted, BBQ, chili, chocolate-covered, and other flavors, many of which can drive up the calories, sodium, and sugar. Raw almonds are nutritionally comparable to dry-roasted. It is best to store almonds in a cool, dark, dry location. Almond Milk. This dairy-free plant milk is free of cholesterol and lactose, which may appeal to those following a low- cholesterol diet or who are lactose-intolerant. It is made by finely grinding almonds with water, which is then strained to remove the almond pulp. The remaining liquid may then be fortified with nutrients like calcium, and vitamins A and D. While the best choice is unsweetened almond milk, many have added sweeteners, so be sure to check the nutrition panel. Almond Butter. Almond butter has a similar consistency to peanut butter, but can serve as an alternative for those with a peanut allergy. For a less expensive option, try a DIY almond butter. Grind 1 pound of dry-roasted almonds in a food processor or high-powered blender, starting at low speed and gradually increasing the speed. Pause to scrape the sides of the processor and break up any large pieces. It may take several minutes before the consistency will change to a paste. The longer you blend, the smoother the paste will become as the oils are released. You can also add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, or curry for unique flavors.

  • A Symbol Becomes the Culture: Reinventing Japanese Cherry Blossoms
    LUND UNIVERSITY • CENTRE FOR EAST AND SOUTH-EAST ASIAN STUDIES A symbol becomes the culture: Reinventing Japanese cherry blossoms Author: Hanyan Ye Supervisor: Annika Pissin Master’s Programme in Asian Studies Spring semester 2015 ABSTRACT A major concern of this thesis was the changing meanings of cherry blossoms in Japanese history, and the images of Japan created through the flower. With a peculiar emphasis on today’s international context, when cherry blossoms have become a unique culture of Japan, this research inquired into the process of symbol-making. The Zenith concept of nyoze and poststructural discussions on language-power relations functioned as critical theoretical tools in revealing the articulation of knowledge within meanings related to the symbol, which empowered certain “truths” at different historical stages. In addition, the thesis illustrated that aestheticization and commodification were the two prominent forces in reinventing meanings, making them appear natural or commonsensical. Meanwhile, supported by interview findings, the thesis investigated into the uniqueness and authenticity of cherry blossoms in Japan, and contended that they !reinforced the asserted cultural homogeneity of the country. Keywords: cherry blossoms, national symbols, nyoze, reinvention of traditions, aestheticization, !commodification, Nihonjinron ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Annika Pissin. Without your help and encouragement it could have been so much more difficult to finish this thesis. Also, I would like to thank Professor Paul Watt from Waseda University, your knowledge on Zen Buddhism guided me to find out a linkage between Zenith concepts and post-structural discussions on language and knowledge. ! In addition, many thanks go out to the interviewees who took part in my research, your insights in the topic greatly inspired me to look from an angel of cherry blossoms as a unique Japanese culture.

  • Vincent Van Gogh
    Vincent Van Gogh (1853 – 1890) 19th century Netherlands and France Post-Impressionist Painter Vincent Van Gogh (Vin-CENT Van-GOKT??? [see page 2]) Post-Impressionist Painter Post-Impressionism Period/Style of Art B: 30 March 1853, Zundert, Netherlands D 29 July, 1890. Auvers-sur-Oise, France Van Gogh was the oldest surviving son born into a family of preacher and art dealers. When Vincent was young, he went to school, but, unhappy with the quality of education he received, his parents hired a governess for all six of their children. Scotswoman Anna Birnie was the daughter of an artist and was likely Van Gogh’s first formal art tutor. Some of our earliest sketches of Van Gogh’s come from this time. After school, Vincent wanted to be a preacher, like his father and grandfather. He studied for seminary with an uncle, Reverend Stricker, but failed the entrance exam. Later, he also proposed marriage to Uncle Stricker’s daughter…she refused (“No, nay, never!”) Next, as a missionary, Van Gogh was sent to a mining community, where he was appalled at the desperate condition these families lived in. He gave away most of the things he owned (including food and most of his clothes) to help them. His bosses said he was “over-zealous” for doing this, and ultimately fired him because he was not eloquent enough when he preached! Then, he tried being an art dealer under another uncle, Uncle Vincent (known as “Cent” in the family.) Vincent worked in Uncle Cent’s dealership for four years, until he seemed to lose interest, and left.

Pictures taken from pexels.com Created by Diliara Kashapova for Skyteach, 2020 © Activity 3 Van Gogh’s biography Vincent van Gogh was one of the world’s greatest artists, with paintings such as ‘Starry Night’ and ‘Sunflowers,’ though he was unknown until after his death. Vincent van Gogh was a post-Impressionist painter whose work — notable for its beauty, emotion and color — highly influenced 20th-century art. He struggled with mental illness and remained poor and virtually unknown throughout his life. Van Gogh was born on March 30, 1853, in Groot-Zundert, Netherlands. Van Gogh’s father, Theodorus van Gogh, was an austere country minister, and his mother, Anna Cornelia Carbentus, was a moody artist whose love of nature, drawing and watercolors was transferred to her son. At age 15, van Gogh's family was struggling financially, and he was forced to leave school and go to work.

  • The Pennsylvania Plum Pox Eradication Program, 1999-2009
    Expelling a Plant Pest Invader: The Pennsylvania Plum Pox Eradication Program, A Case Study in Regulatory Cooperation by Ruth Welliver1, Karl Valley1,3, Nancy Richwine1,3, Gary Clement2,3 and Don Albright2,3 1Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Plant Industry. 2301 N. Cameron St. | Harrisburg, PA 17110 2 Eastern Region (Field Operations), Plant Protection and Quarantine, Animal Plant Health Inspection Service United States Department of Agriculture Raleigh, North Carolina 27606 3 Retired Abstract Plum Pox Virus (Sharka), the most serious viral disease of stone fruits globally, was first identified from North America during October 1999 from infected peaches in Adams County, Pennsylvania. A Plum Pox Virus survey, eradication and outreach program was conducted in Pennsylvania from 1999-2009 by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, US Department of Agriculture, Pennsylvania State University, and numerous cooperators and supporting agencies. This paper chronicles the project’s evolution from detection of the disease to declaration of eradication, including types of surveys conducted and lab tests used. To determine the distribution of the virus in Pennsylvania, State and Federal personnel sampled all commercial stone fruit trees in the state for a minimum of three years, eventually concentrating most of their activities in the four south central counties (Adams, Cumberland, Franklin, and York) where the virus was detected. Staff issued numerous treatment orders leading to the removal and destruction of nearly 1,800 commercial acres of stone fruit trees. In addition, 10 acres of abandoned stone fruit trees, 54 acres of stone fruit tree nursery stock, 1,174 stone fruit trees or shrubs on residential properties, and 1,420 ornamental stone fruit trees in landscape nurseries and garden centers were ordered removed and destroyed.

  • Teen Study Guide and Extension Activities
    “Well, then, what can I say: does what goes on inside, show on the outside?” -Vincent to Theo, June 1880 Vincent van Gogh is among the world’s most famous artists, known for his vibrating colors, thick, encrusted paint, exhilarating brushstrokes and very brief career. In a mere ten years he managed to create an astonishing 900 paintings and 1000 drawings! The art he suffered to create tried to answer the introspective question he put forth in a letter from 1880, “does what goes on inside, show on the outside?” Born in The Netherlands on March 30, 1853, he never knew fame for his art while he was alive. Neither did he know prosperity or much peace during his frenetic life. Vincent was known to be emotionally intense, highly intelligent and socially awkward from the time he was a young boy, and though he never married, he had a deep and driving desire to connect with others. Unfortunately, he was unable to maintain most of his relationships due to his argumentative, obsessive nature and bouts of depression. But it was a divided temperament Vincent possessed - disagreeable, melancholy and zealous on one hand; sensitive, observant and gifted on the other. His beloved brother Theo thought that he had “two different beings in him” and that Vincent often made his life “difficult not only for others, but also for himself.” This disconnect was obviously painful to Vincent, as he once compared himself to a hearth - as someone who “has a great fire in his soul and nobody ever comes to warm themselves at it, and passers-by see nothing but a little smoke at the top of the chimney and then go on their way.” It was this friction of selves that created a lonely lifetime of seeking - for home, family, truth, balance and acceptance, which he ultimately never found.

The purpose of the NPDRS is to insure that the tools, infrastructure, communication networks, and capacity required to mitigate the impact of high consequence plant disease outbreaks are such that a reasonable level of crop production is maintained. Each disease-specific plan is intended to provide a brief primer on the disease, assess the status of critical recovery components, and identify disease management research, extension and education needs. These documents are not intended to be stand-alone documents that address all of the many and varied aspects of plant disease outbreak and all of the decisions that must be made and actions taken to achieve effective response and recovery. They are, however, documents that will help USDA guide further efforts directed toward plant disease recovery.
