Stage 5: Maintain - Duration: 15:54.

The community-based approach

does not end when construction finishes.

The last stage, maintaining a safer school, is ongoing.

Previous stages of safer school construction

included participation and training opportunities with the community.

Often, this community engagement

leads to the community changing its views on hazards

and committing to building safer schools.

Stage 5 is where this changing view on hazards and safety

spreads to other parts of school life and community.

When the community learns about hazards

and works together to remove unsafe conditions,

and when the community values safety

as a goal for their children and for themselves,

they begin to create a culture of safety.

With support from the program manager,

the community grows this culture of safety,

even after school construction ends.

They do this by maintaining the school,

applying a safety culture to other parts of their lives,

and passing on lessons learned to future generations.

If implemented well, Stage 5 has the biggest long-term impact.

There are three steps in the Maintenance stage:

Step 1: Develop a school use manual and maintenance plan.

Step 2: Celebrate completion and integrate safety.

Step 3. Promote broader responsibility.

These steps make sure safer school construction becomes the norm.

They ensure the community continues to learn from hazards

and reduce their risk.

Step 1: Develop school use manual and maintenance plan.

As construction finishes,

the program manager and school management committee

focus on the safe use and maintenance of the school.

They first work with the design team to write a user manual,

a document that lists how the school can, and cannot, be used safely.

Government policies may require particular safe uses of the school,

so government agencies may help write the manual.

Perhaps the school is designed

to be a temporary community shelter during disasters.

This is written down in the user manual.

If the school foundation is only strong enough to support two storeys,

this is also written down.

The school management committee needs to know

what changes they can safely make without seeking approval.

Changes such as painting, replacing windows,

or planting vegetation may all be acceptable.

But other changes, like adding doors or removing columns,

might weaken the school building.

These changes need approval from an engineer.

The school management committee needs to know this

before the school is handed over to the community.

All these permitted uses and changes, along with those that are not,

are included in the use manual.

The final design drawings are also included.

But that is not all. A safer school needs a maintenance plan.

The program manager helps school staff and the committee to understand

that maintenance keeps schools functional and safe.

A maintenance plan can include a number of helpful tools.

A maintenance schedule includes a timetable

of when jobs need to be done on the school building and grounds.

A maintenance checklist helps school staff remember what they need to do

and who is responsible for each task.

Part of a good maintenance plan is the budget:

working out how to pay for each task.

Generally, the government agency or organisation

in charge of managing the school

is responsible for funding this maintenance work,

but sometimes there is not enough money.

A school management committee can find creative ways

to boost limited funds.

Some schools have regular "safe school days".

These are when everyone - parents, students, staff –

donate time and skills to maintain the school.

World Disaster Risk Reduction Day on October 13

might be a good date to choose.

The community may also have regular community work days.

When funds are limited, the school management committee

may ask parents and older students to help raise money for maintenance.

Building a safer school takes a lot of hard work and time.

Proper care and use of the building

will ensure the next disaster does not destroy

what the community has created.

The next step of the Maintain stage is

Step 2: Celebrate completion and integrate safety.

Completing a safer school project is a big achievement for any community.

While the safer school building itself is significant,

so too is the community's new knowledge and skills

and its emerging culture of safety.

The community has become a partner in protecting their children.

It should be celebrated.

This celebration highlights how the community

made safety-conscious choices when selecting their site,

designing their school, and constructing it.

The celebration is also a public commitment

to maintain the school building

and integrate safety into all parts of their lives.

Once students begin classes,

it is important these lessons of safety

are immediately put to practice.

Staff and students need to manage their school

so everyone remains safe during disasters.

Even when a school building is safe,

its fittings and educational tools can be damaged

or even injure or kill students and staff during a disaster.

Everyone needs to think about the contents of their school,

what might be damaged, and what might cause damage.

In earthquakes,

heavy furniture can topple onto people or block exits.

These items should be attached to the walls.

It is important to also minimise fire risk.

Chemicals can spill and cause explosions,

so hazardous materials

should be stored in cabinets with latched doors.

Small edges or bars should be installed

to secure flammable materials on shelves

and keep them from falling off.

In high-wind areas, unprotected glass can shatter.

Window covers should be made to be ready to attach

before high winds arrive.

In floods, books and records can be ruined forever.

A high shelf can keep the most important ones above flood waters.

The school management committee and older students

identify these problems and find simple solutions.

One way to do this is to form a safety committee.

The second consideration should be disaster management:

how students and staff need to respond safely during disasters.

After construction, the school forms a disaster management committee

made up of school staff, emergency management specialists,

parents, and students.

This committee drafts school procedures

for emergencies and disasters.

They make sure emergency supplies are gathered and stored.

The procedures include important actions,

such as when and how to evacuate safely,

where to gather in an emergency,

and how to keep track of students and reunite them with their parents.

School staff and older students

also learn how to perform simple emergency tasks

like putting out small fires and providing first aid.

These procedures and skills can save lives and property.

They must be practised regularly,

so the school disaster management committee

must set up regular emergency drills.

Lastly, students, staff, parents, and the community

continue to learn about disasters and school safety.

Information about hazards, safer construction techniques,

and school safety procedures

all become part of the school culture,

and even the curriculum.

This can even be fun.

Classes can create plays on how to reduce disaster risk

to perform to their families and fellow students.

Parent meetings each year can explain emergency procedures

and also point out again the safety features of the school.

Learning about a culture of safety can even change the curriculum

or be used as supplementary material.

In science classes, students can learn about hazards in their region.

In history class, students may want to interview their elders

about historic disasters.

In social studies classes, students may play games

to learn ways their families and their communities

protect themselves from hazards like floods, high winds, earthquakes,

and now climate change.

The last step in the Maintain stage is:

Step 3. Promote broader responsibility.

This step is no longer about the community

where a safer school is built.

It is about broader changes to the way regions, countries,

ministries of education, and development organisations operate.

It is about all of us.

To promote broader responsibility for safer schools,

governments and humanitarian and development organisations

should make a public commitment that every school they build

is a safer school.

Budgetary constraints can never be an excuse

for putting children in schools that can hurt or kill them.

Where funding bodies resist the small increase in cost or effort

needed to build safer schools,

we need to advocate for children and educate those funding bodies.

Finally, we all need to learn from each other.

When safer school projects are successful,

when they result in safer school buildings

and more resilient communities,

the successes and challenges need to be shared.

This last stage of safer school construction,

Stage 5, Maintain,

starts when construction comes to an end.

In this stage, the program manager, design team

and school management committee

develop a use manual and maintenance plan.

They celebrate the completion of the school

and the school staff and students integrate safety

into their practices.

But their work continues long after the safer school is finished.

Everyone continues to promote broader responsibility,

for the safety of their school,

but also for all schools and all children.

Over this century alone, countless children have died

in the very buildings meant to educate and keep them safe.

Untold communities have lost their investments

when disasters destroyed their schools.

We have the knowledge and skills. Now we need to change the process.

Together, we can make sure every child has access

to not just a school, but a safe school.

And by taking a community-based approach,

safer school projects can help make sure

that when children leave their schools,

they return to resilient homes and communities.

Typhoid Fever Treatment ❤ Home Remedies for Typhoid Fever - Duration: 5:29.

Typhoid Fever Treatment ? Home Remedies for Typhoid Fever

Note: Do consult your doctor for proper diagnosis and treament of this condition.

Use home remedies just as an adjunct treatment.

Typhoid fever, also known as typhoid, is a bacterial infection of the intestinal tract

and bloodstream.

It is most commonly caused due to the Salmonella typhi (S. typhi) bacterium.

Once the bacteria enters the body through contaminated food, drinks or water, they multiply

and spread from the intestines into the bloodstream.

The bacteria travel through the blood to your lymph nodes, liver, spleen, gallbladder and

other parts of the body.

Typhoid fever is common in less-industrialized countries, mainly due to problems with unsafe

drinking water, inadequate sewage disposal and flooding.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 21.5 million people

in developing countries contract typhoid each year.

Early symptoms of typhoid are fever, weakness, headache and abdominal pain.

As the disease gets worse, one can also have symptoms like severe diarrhea, vomiting, constipation,

loss of appetite, skin rashes, blood in the stools, chills, delirium, hallucinations,

fluctuating mood, enlarged liver, nosebleeds and lethargy.

Symptoms usually improve in 2 to 4 weeks with proper treatment.

Once diagnosed with typhoid, doctors prescribe antibiotics to kill the bacteria.

It is very important to complete the full course of antibiotics to prevent recurrence

of the infection.

In addition, use of clean water along with good hygiene and sanitation are important

to prevent spreading the illness to others.

There are also vaccines that can protect you from contracting typhoid.

Some home remedies can also provide relief from typhoid symptoms and promote quick recovery.

Here are the top 5 home remedies for typhoid fever.

1.

Cold Compresses

When you have a high fever, apply cold compresses to help your body temperature come down quickly.

Soak a washcloth in cool tap water, wring out the excess water and place it on your

forehead.

Change the washcloth frequently.

Follow this treatment until your temperature drops.

You can also use a cold damp washcloth to sponge areas like your armpits, feet, hands

and groin to reduce body temperature.

Do this at regular intervals to control a high fever.

Note: Do not use very cold or ice water as it can worsen the condition.

2.

Increase Fluid Intake

Due to high fever and diarrhea, you may become dehydrated.

To prevent this, increase your fluid intake.

It will keep your body hydrated and encourage elimination of waste material and toxins.

Drink about 8 to 10 glasses of bottled or purified water daily.

To be on the safe side, boil your drinking water if using tap water.

Along with water, increase your consumption of coconut water, herbal teas, fresh fruit

juices, soups and glucose water.

3.

Homemade ORS

Fluid replacement or fluid resuscitation is essential to replenish fluid lost through

diarrhea and prevent dehydration.

You can do this with oral rehydration solution (ORS).

ORS will reduce the intensity of typhoid symptoms and aid recovery.

You can use ORS approved by the World Health Organization (WHO) that you can easily buy

from any health store.

You can also make ORS at home.

Mix 1/2 small spoon of salt and 6 small spoons of sugar in 4 cups of clean drinking water.

Drink this homemade ORS several times a day until you recover completely.

4.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is energizing and a good remedy for typhoid fever.

Its acidic property helps draw heat out of the skin, which in turn reduces high body

temperature.

Moreover, the minerals in apple cider vinegar replenish minerals lost due to diarrhea.

Mix 1/2 teaspoon of raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar and a little honey in a glass

of water.

Drink it before eating your meals.

Follow this remedy for 5 to 7 days.

You can also prepare a mixture of one part apple cider vinegar and two parts cool water.

Soak a washcloth in it, wring out the excess water and place it on your forehead and abdomen.

Change the washcloth once it becomes warm.

Repeat as needed until your fever has dropped.

5.

Garlic

The antimicrobial properties of garlic help fight off bacteria that cause typhoid fever.

It will also boost your immune system.

Moreover, it helps eliminate harmful toxins from the body and speed up recovery.

Eat 2 garlic cloves on an empty stomach for a couple of weeks to help get rid of typhoid

fever symptoms.

You can also mix 1/2 teaspoon of crushed garlic, 1 cup of milk and 4 cups of water.

Boil the solution until it reduces to � of the original amount.

Drink it 3 times a day.

Note: Garlic is not recommended for pregnant women and small children.

Seeding the Cosmos for Life Violent and Explosive Star Birth Captured in the Orion Molecular Cloud - Duration: 8:11.

Seeding the Cosmos for Life Violent and Explosive Star Birth Captured in the Orion Molecular

Cloud

Star birth can be a violent and explosive event, as dramatically illustrated in new

ALMA images.Around 500 years ago, a pair of adolescent protostars had a perilously close

encounter that blasted their stellar nursery apart.

Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have examined the widely scattered

debris from this explosive event, gaining new insights into the sometimes-fierce relationship

among sibling stars.

Shortly after starting to form some 100,000 years ago, several protostars in the Orion

Molecular Cloud 1 (OMC-1), a dense and active star factory about 1,500 light-years from

Earth just behind the Orion Nebula, latched onto each other gravitationally and gradually

drew closer.

Eventually, two of these stars either grazed each other or collided, triggering a powerful

eruption that launched other nearby protostars and hundreds of giant streamers of dust and

gas into interstellar space at speeds greater than 150 kilometers per second.

This cataclysmic interaction released as much energy as our Sun emits over the course of

10 million years.

Today, the remains of this spectacular explosion are visible from Earth.

"What we see in this once calm stellar nursery is a cosmic version of a 4th of July fireworks

display, with giant streamers rocketing off in all directions," said John Bally with the

University of Colorado and lead author on a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal.

Groups of stars such as those in OMC-1 are born when a cloud of gas hundreds of times

more massive than our Sun begins to collapse under its own gravity.

In the densest regions, protostars form and begin to drift about randomly.

Over time, this random motion can dampen, which allows some of the stars to fall toward

a common center of gravity, usually dominated by a particularly large protostar.

If these stars draw too close to each other before they drift away into the galaxy, violent

interactions can occur.

According to the researchers, such explosions are expected to be relatively short lived,

with the remnants like those seen by ALMA lasting only centuries.

"Though fleeting, protostellar explosions may be relatively common," said Bally.

"By destroying their parent cloud, as we see in OMC-1, such explosions may also help to

regulate the pace of star formation in these giant molecular clouds."

Bally and his team observed this feature previously with the Gemini-South telescope in Chile.

These earlier images, taken in the near infrared, reveal the remarkable structure of the streamers,

which extend nearly a light-year from end to end.

Hints of the explosive nature of this outflow were first uncovered in 2009 with the Submillimeter

Array in Hawaii.

The new ALMA data, however, provide much greater clarity, unveiling important details about

the distribution and high-velocity motion of the carbon monoxide (CO) gas inside the

streamers.

This helps astronomers understand the underlying force of the blast and the impact such events

could have on star formation across the galaxy.

"People most often associate stellar explosions with ancient stars, like a nova eruption on

the surface of a decaying star or the even more spectacular supernova death of an extremely

massive star," Bally says.

"ALMA has given us new insights into explosions on the other end of the stellar life cycle,

star birth."

The Orion Nebula, also known as M42, is one of the brightest and most famous nebulae in

the sky.

The star forming region's glowing gas clouds and hot young stars are on the right in this

sharp and colorful two frame mosaic that includes the smaller nebula M43 near center and dusty,

bluish reflection nebulae NGC 1977 on the left.

Located at the edge of an otherwise invisible giant molecular cloud complex, astronomers

have also identified what appear to be numerous infant solar systems.

6a00d8341bf7f753ef0154356ce1c7970c-800wi

Orion is a cosmic zoo, with protoplanetary disks, brown dwarfs, intense and turbulent

motions of the gas, and the photo-ionizing effects of massive nearby stars as well as

supersonic "bullets" -- each ten times the diameter of Pluto's orbit and tipped with

iron atoms glowing bright blue, believed to have been formed one thousand years ago from

an unknown violent event.

Over 13 billion years ago at least one of the domains of life may have begun in nebular

clouds.

If restricted to the Milky Way, which is 13.6 billion years old, the first chemical combinations

would have had billions of years to become a self-replicating organism with a DNA genome

long before the existence of Earth.

Nebular clouds are thought to be most likely environment for synthesizing and promoting

the evolution of molecules needed for the origin of life.

Giant gas nebulae such as Orion are storehouses of sugars that form ribose -- the backbone

of RNA.

With a universe full of sugar, it's possible that early RNA worlds were generated and are

evolving in their own unique ways throughout the observable universe.

RNA coding is what gave primitive cell structures the catalyst they needed to become life.

The building blocks for DNA could have been generated or combined within interstellar

clouds and DNA would become part of the molecular-protein-amino acid complex.

Hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, calcium, sulfur, nitrogen and phosphorus for example are continually

irradiated by ions, which can generate small organic molecules which evolve into larger

complex organic molecules that result in the formation of amino acids and other compounds.

Phosphorus, for example, is rare in our solar system and may have been non-existent on the

early Earth; phosphorus is essential for the manufacture of DNA.

Polarized radiation in the nebula cloud leads to the formation of proteins, nucleobases

and then DNA.

The combination of hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, cyanide and several other elements,

could create adenine, which is a DNA base, whereas oxygen and phosphorus could ladder

DNA base pairs.

Glycine has also been identified in the interstellar clouds.

In 2009, the Herschel Space Observatory using the telescope's heterodyne instrument for

the far infrared revealed the chemical fingerprints of potentially life-enabling organic molecules

in the Orion nebula, one of the most prolific chemical factories in space, although the

full extent of its chemistry and the pathways for molecule formation

are not well understood.

However, this requires a continuous care, in terms of healthy, effective facial skin

products, as well as a healthy lifestyle.

Yet, numerous factors affect the skin on the face, and people often struggle with issues

like scars, acne, sun spots, wrinkles, fine lines, pimples, and age spots.

To restore the beauty and vitality of the skin, most people try expensive commercial

products, but unfortunately, most of them are simply ineffective and are loaded with

harmful chemicals.

Yet, the following simple, natural miracle will cleanse, rejuvenate, and refresh your

face in an inexpensive, and safe way!

The mask we are writing about today is completely natural, and its ingredients are all beneficial

for the skin.

It removes all impurities and leaves it healthy and smooth.

Its main ingredients are baking soda and apple cider vinegar, both of which are probably

already in your kitchen.

However, its effects will amaze you!

This is how to prepare it:

Ingredients:

sodium bicarbonate Apple vinegar

honey 1/2 lemon

Method of preparation:

Add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in half a glass of water.

Is This The Beginning Of The End For U S Empire? - poltics - Duration: 8:41.

Is This The Beginning Of The End For U.S. Empire?

Before I get into the meat of this post, I want to revisit something I wrote back in

January.

From the post, Very Powerful People in the U.S. Government Want War � This is Their

Sales Pitch:

We need to understand that those who want this war will be absolutely relentless. The

sales pitch will not end until they get exactly what they want. This is where all of us critical

thinkers need to play a key role. We must be prepared to diligently analyze all unsubstantiated

official claims, and push back against the war-mongers, because we know for certain the

oligarch-owned corporate media won�t. We must be prepared to inform our fellow citizens

about what�s happening so that we don�t fall victim to a cheap sales pitch with devastating

consequences. Unfortunately, we must also be prepared for a possible deep state false

flag if the current sales tactic falls on deaf ears.

America cannot win a global war of such a scale if it is based on false pretenses and

in the absence of exceedingly strong public support. This support does not exist. Will

this serve as a necessary restraint against the masters of war and their devious plans?

It�s too early to tell, but I do know that if we are unnecessarily pushed into a global

conflagration, it will not end well for us. If this is the road our twisted status quo

insists on taking us down, let us never forget who they are and the self-serving motivations

behind their actions.

Four months later, the deep state got exactly what it wanted. Trump�s weaknesses have

been identified and exploited, and he�s successfully been manipulated into neocon

foreign policy like George W. Bush and Barack Obama before him. I�ve spent much of the

past several months warning about exactly what happened last night, but the die is now

cast. There�s no turning back from the path we�re on.

And don�t give me this garbage about Trump playing �4D chess.� Trump�s a brilliant

salesman, and that�s about it. There�s nothing special or superior about Donald Trump

intellectually, and he�s one of the most unwise people to ever become President. There

was a hope he meant what he said about non-interventionism during the campaign, but that hope should

be entirely extinguished at this point. Trump is a very weak man desperately looking for

praise from those he claims to hate.

The purpose of today�s post is not to discuss what happened last night. All of you have

read the news by now. My intent today is to explain what I think this means for the years

ahead. I believe last night�s strike represents the beginning of the end for U.S. empire.

Although the U.S. has been declining domestically for this entire century, America has still

been calling all the shots on the international front. This makes sense in late-stage empire,

as the focus of the fat and happy �elite� becomes singularly obsessed with domination

and power, while the situation back home festers and rots.

Trump won on an �America first� platform that promised to emphasize the well-being

of American citizens over geopolitical adventurism. We now know for certain he�s been manipulated

into the imperial mindset, and his recklessness will merely accelerate U.S. decline on the

world stage, and in turn, back home.

If anyone�s playing 4D chess it�s Russia. Russia is anti-fragile at this point, as has

been proved by Putin�s survival in the face of economic sanctions, a collapsing ruble

and a plunge in oil prices. Putin is still standing and arguably as powerful as ever.

Not to mention the fact that the USSR completely disintegrated and collapsed within the past

30 years. They�ve been through a lot as a people. Meanwhile, the U.S. is extraordinarily

fragile and weak by comparison, a distinction that will become quite obvious to us all in

the years ahead. I don�t say this with any hint of glee or schadenfreude, I�m just

stating the facts as I see them.

None of this implies that Russia�s leadership are a bunch of good people by any means. What

I am saying is that they are a thousand times more strategic and intelligent compared to

U.S. leadership.

To prove the point, this would be a good time to review a post I published back in 2014,

Tensions Between the U.S. and Russia Are Worse Than You Realize � Remarks by Foreign Minister

Sergey Lavrov. Here�s some of what I noted:

There are two reasons I think the following remarks by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey

Lavrov are so important.

First, as someone who spends much of his time analyzing and critiquing the many destructive

policy decisions made by American �leaders,� I was shocked to find how accurate his description

of the U.S. power structure�s mindset seems to be. He gets it, and he is more or less

trying to warn the world that America�s leaders are basically power-drunk children.

I concur.

Second, Lavrov also describes the negative impact that this behavior has had on the Russian

psyche generally. He expresses dismay that the U.S. status quo sees the world as unipolar,

and attempts to tackle every problem from the perspective that might is right. In no

uncertain terms, Lavrov makes it clear that Russia will not stand for this. I don�t

think the Russians are bluffing, so this is a very dangerous situation.

If there was actually someone in the U.S. State Department capable of such introspective

and clear thinking, we might actually defuse this situation. Don�t hold your breath.

You should really read the entire post to see Lavrov�s comments for yourself in order

to truly understand why I came to the above conclusions.

U.S. leadership is an absolute joke and will drive this entire country into a brick wall

in the years ahead. John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Chucky Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, are you kidding

me? They remind me of George Armstrong Custer, and we all know how that turned out.

The media is even worse. In what Glenn Greenwald accurately called �one of the sickest things

ever to appear on US television,� MSNBC�s Brian Williams gushed about the �beauty�

of U.S. cruise missiles.

This is not the sort of thing you see in a confident, brave, and civilized nation, it�s

the sort of stuff you�d expect to see toward the end. It�s the stuff of craven war-mongers,

of dishonest cowards, of a totally deranged and very dangerous media. The signs are everywhere;

imperial decline is set to accelerate rapidly in the coming years.

Fine, but how is all this going to play out? Obviously nobody really knows, but I do think

we�ve entered a new period in American history. I think it�s basically a crossing of the

Rubicon moment for the American empire. Personally, I don�t expect a strong and visible military

response from Russia in the near-term. I don�t think Putin wants to give the U.S. media and

newly minted neocon Donald Trump an excuse to do anything truly crazy, which they can

blame on Russia in the court of public opinion. I think Putin is too smart for that. Rather,

what I think he�ll do is make all sorts of moves behind the scenes to weaken America�s

economic power, while at the same time engaging in minor provocations to tempt the imbeciles

in charge of U.S. foreign policy to make further mistakes abroad, to which they�ll emphatically

oblige.

In other words, Russia will attempt to make the U.S. extend itself further in a region

where no real success is possible, at the same time that the American economy deteriorates

further. Recall that the current very weak economic �recovery� has been going on

for nearly a decade. This cycle is very long in the tooth, and all Russia really needs

to do is sit back, make some moves behind the scenes and allow the U.S. to collapse

upon itself in its hubris and stupidity. This is precisely what I think is going to happen.

Expect more of all the above as the U.S. empire enters its most devastating phase of collapse.

Think about what it might mean for you and your family and prepare accordingly.
