hi do you think you could do a miles edgeworth x reader where reader comforts edgeworth during or after an earthquake ? maybe angst/comfort :) tysm!

Hello Anon, I'm glad to be writing again! Apologies for the late response, but I hope you're still around to read this :')

(Requests are now open again :D)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Comforting Miles Edgeworth during an earthquake:

Ever since the death of his father, Miles has always tried to avoid places where earthquakes are known to occur;

But with his constant traveling, he sometimes can't avoid it;

So when he's most insecure, he likes to bring you along, knowing that your presence alone is soothing enough for his terror;

Even if he knows that he's scared and knows how he behaves, he still cannot avoid fleeing to the first spot he deems safe enough and stays there, paralyzed;

He hates being in that state, remembering all the times it blocked him even at work;

But the worst times are when earthquakes strike where he thinks they're rare, like his home;

However, he noticed that whenever you were around, everything was easier, he would calm down faster and his reactions were milder;

He'll probably never recover from the trauma, so finding you was the best thing that could happen to him.

Miles set the freshly brewed tea on the table as he waited for you to return from the kitchen, sat on the chair and adjusted his glasses before pouring the drink into each of your cups.

"Which one did you prepare? Darjeeling again? Or the usual Earl Grey?" as you finally emerged from the room next door, drying your hands with a dishcloth, Miles felt a little tug on his lips and moved a chair closer to his, instead of in front of it. "It's the one I brought you from India, it's a green tea mix of Sencha and Assam, so it's a little less intense than a black one" he gently guided you by hand to sit "So I'm not allowed to add any sugar?" "Nu-uh" he sipped his cup, as his muscles melted on the seat.

Miles loved this moment of the week; after a long, usual day of work, he could relax all the time wanted, knowing tomorrow was a full rest. He would usually read one of his books, or a file case -if in a better mood- and just wait to fall asleep. Luckily, now with your company, he could also have pleasant conversations with someone equally lovely.

The time flew by between a teapot-amount of tea, some discussions about work, hobbies and a very long parenthesis about Miles' recent new assistants in his investigations. You moved on the couch and searched for something to watch as Miles took the tea set and brought it to the kitchen.

However, everything paused when the lights suddenly went out "Miles? Stay where you are, I'll go take the torch" You carefully moved around the apartment, making your hands go first. All the other buildings outside were in total blackout, so the research for the torch was sped up, feeling something bad was arriving.

Feeling that was confirmed mere seconds later, sensing the earth under your feet and the furniture around starting to tremble, first imperceptible, but soon became a true quake. Your first thought went to Miles. Found the torch, as everything trembled, the sound of many pieces of porcelain crashing to the ground of the other room made your guts fall to the ground, and your body followed soon enough.

You had to stay still until the tremors weakened enough to stand up again and rush to the kitchen, making way with the light in hand. As soon as all the ceramics on the ground were spotted, you searched for Miles and undoubtedly found him huddled under the table, quivering and protecting his head with his arms.

Miles froze on the spot when the light blacked out, holding tight to the tray with the tea set, but as soon as the smallest tremor hit his feet, he started shaking and searched somewhere to hold on, but a horrific shake made him fall to the ground, crashing everything in hands and banging his head on some counter. The already black vision didn't help his attempts to not go back to that elevator, all he could do was hug himself as strongly as possible and reach the first wall to have some sort of support around. When a light was pointed at his face, he somewhat understood that he was not inside the elevator, but his head couldn't come out of there.

"Miles! Miles are you hurt?!" you kneeled beside him and tried to "unlock" his head from the protection he created "Miles, it's okay, we're safe, it's gone" you attempted to make him better see around, but he was elsewhere right now, shaking uncontrollably and barely breathing. Nothing comforting worked, between cuddles and gentle whispers, he went increasingly apnoea and tears started falling.

To avoid panicking, you forced his hands away from his face, making him look at you, softly shaking his shoulders to make him inhale air again "Miles please, breathe with me, everything is all right" You found his hand and almost instinctively he clasped his hand with all his strength around yours.

Luckily, lights started to come back to the buildings outside, and when the kitchen ones turned on again, you turned Miles' face towards yours, seeking for any potential injuries, which were more than visible on his temple "I have to get something for your head, you're bleeding" you applied soft pressure on it, but instantly understood that no one was moving soon

Miles remained rigid for some more minutes before slowly coming back to earth. He finally recognized his kitchen and your hand, which up until three seconds ago was the gun he had thrown all those years ago. His mouth wouldn't open, his eyes wouldn't stop leaking tears and his body wouldn't stop shaking; all he managed to do was climb on your legs, searching for a safe position and trying to stabilize his breathing.

You slowly dragged his body from under the table, moving with him until a wall could be used as a backrest, covering his body with your own to give comfort and warmth. Your free hand gently stroked his locks while the one Miles held, kindly caressed his fingers. "Everything is okay Miles, as long as I'm here you're safe, nothing will ever happen to you again" Your thumb cleared his eyes of tears and slipped along his cheeks, allowing Miles to finally relax against you, keeping his eyes open to not permit his mind to play tricks.

"I'm sorry, I hate being like this" he mumbled and tried to straighten his back, loosening the grip on your hand "Don't even start, you're doing so good and it's not your fault. When you're ready we can go to bed and try to forget all this" You shushed him when he tried to talk again, probably about the tea set or the "nuisance" he's causing you "I don't know… if I want to sleep" he softly sobbed, holding his head where it banged "Everything could be worse, and my head is hurting like crazy" he fell again against your body, hiding himself where nothing could see all the overbearing emotions on his features "We'll do whatever you want, just don't hide. The only thing I ask is that you let me aid that wound on your head" You sighed and watched yourself around, noticing that almost all the other cups in the cupboards were destroyed, but everything outside Miles was a tomorrow problem "It's ok, just… stay with me".

It took another two hours to pull Miles up that floor, dragging him to bed first and convincing him to get in his comfortable clothes after "You don't want to try and sleep?" his head was finally patched and massaged carefully to relieve some pain "Not now, if I get asleep, good, otherwise I prefer staying vigilant for any other earthquakes" Miles melted against you, trying his best to listen to your advice and get some sleep, trying to forget what happened and how the perfect evening was ruined in the worst way possible "You can ask for some days off if you want to re-do this stolen time; I'm sure Gumshoe would help your request" Your mind could read his thoughts, and caught the opportunity to let his head wander somewhere else "I hate to skip work for such futile motives; my weakness shouldn't obstruct my work" "Oooh yes, sorry Mr. Chief Prosecutor, the office will crumble on its own weight without you" Your hands kept cuddling him softly enough to stimulate his sleep.

Miles stayed still and silent, eyes closed, ignoring the pain in his head and everything else around, and inside his thoughts. He'll never recover, he knows that perfectly, but if the reserved treatment every time was like this, he could learn to handle better his trauma, and learn how to be properly thankful for what life is finally granting him, not just inflicting; you.

Tropical Goa is the smallest state in India but also the most laid back and the most popular with tourists, both from India and all over the world. Goa is famous for it’s amazing beaches and nightlife, but there’s so much more to explore here.

There really is something for everyone in Goa, from luxury hotels and world class fine dining restaurants to mellow yoga retreats, to adventure sports to wild all night beach parties, to cheap and cheerful beach huts and hippie flea markets.

Most tourists flock to Goa in the Winter months to enjoy sunny days, blissful beaches, yoga retreats, fresh seafood, spicy curries, vibrant markets, wild nightlife and much more all infused with the special and captivating blend of Indian and Portuguese cultures.

Monsoon brings a totally different side to Goa, with lush green fields and no crowds – there really is nowhere quite like Goa!

I want yall to consider vet/zoologist crutchie. I’ve always had this idea of him working with animals and the idea suddenly grew and expanded even further when i woke up this morning and decided to turn on nat geo wild. Let me explain.

Crutchie adores animals. The cute, the gross, the peculiar, the dangerous, the docile, you name it. He always had this dream lifestyle where he gets to work closely with animals, whether it’d be in an animal clinic or in a zoo or in conservation/perservation or research in general, and then come home every eveningn to his own place full of his pets.

His first job fresh out of vet school was in fact as a vet. He was hoping for a job in preservation/conservation or at a zoo but seeing that this was his first job, he’ll still take it. And being a vet actually allowed crutchie to handle a variety amount of cases. Most cases are just the regular hose pets or out of states farm, mostly bcs he’s still considered a junior there. But working as a vet was enough to see a lot of cases.

However he still wished to work in preservation. He wants to work with endangered species or rescued animals. And so he went out of his way to look for jobs out of the state in conservation centers. (Idk how that stuff works but you get the gist). Now i firmly stand with the whole crutchie, jack, and race are adopted brothers dynamic. Out of the three of them, crutchie is definitely the brother that would most likely move very far away. But this was out of state. Jack and race were a bit sad that he’s moving away but was supportive of his decision. dw the brothers and the rest of the friends always make time to do life updates through texts or calls.

Imagine their surprise when a couple months in Crutchie’s new job he announced that he was planning on moving to other countries? He’s fairly young when he starts off his conservation career to still be quite active but old enough with experience and knowledge a junior wouldn’t have. He gets recommended by his superiors to work in other conservation centers around the globe. Jack and Race was the most shocked and mostly bcs they’re his brothers. Despite the life updates they give, it’s quite hard to catch Crutchie at the right time to hv a proper catch up conversation. His way of staying connected with all his friends and brothers is by sending random life update texts in their big group chat (basically a big newsies gc) much like what the others have always been doing. Crutchie is too busy to call them himself, and most of the time he is content with not speaking with them for long periods of time. However he always does makes the smallest amount of time to facetime them, especially his brothers. And make time to go back to new york to visit them every once in awhile bearing gifts from where he’s living.

Living like this made him really proud of himsef. Of how far he has come. He was first adopted bcs his biological parents didn’t want a disabled child. Imo in modern era crutchie has a limb reduction on his right leg. It barely formed from just above his knee as a newborn and so his bio parents abandoned him. He was taken in by a couple of foster families first and was only given crutches as they cldn’t afford a prosthetic limb. When Ms Medda adopted him, he was able to get one. He went through a lot of challenges with his prosthetic leg, and even thought he might not be able to get the lifestyle he wanted with it. But when the world turned its back on him, Crutchie gave it a middle finger and fought through. With a job he loves, and experiencing a lifestyle in different countries as he continues with his passion for saving animals. It started from Brazil, then South Africa, then India, then China, then Indonesia, and then Australia. He stayed in Australia the longest though because there were a lot of cool conservation projects he was being recruited on.

All throughout his adventures of being moved around, he acquired two loyal pets he brought along with him. A black labrador with a right front prosthetic leg named Hunter, found limping in the streets of Brazil, and a black blind stray cat named Noir, found in a cat adoption center in China after living there for almost a year (breed unidentifiable other than “black fluffy cat” and Crutchie doesn’t care to find out what her breed is).

He earned his reputation worldwide after being apart of countless of conservation projects in various countries. By around his late thirties early fourties, he moved back to the states. On the outskirts of the state of New York, he settles in a small town near his permanent workplace. A conservation scientists in a wildcat sanctuary where they rescue wild cats (from unethical breeding, bad roadside zoos, disabled by poachers in the wild, the black market, random ppl keeping them as pets, you get tne gist) and let them live freely in their sanctuary till the end of their lives as wild as they want without being put on display, unable to be released to the wild for one reason or another. Crutchie also sometimes comes in to work in a local animal clinic every now and then.

Anyways yeah food for thought on vet/zoologist!crutchie?? Yeah<3

Think of Goa, and think of a coastal retreat with sights of gleaming sands and azure waters with a shimmering sun in the backdrop. A lush green landscape edges the golden coastline, which overlooks the scintillating seas in the beach capital of India. Although the smallest state in the country, Goa is one of the nation’s biggest tourist destinations.

i wish i knew my area of history in the "can answer middle school essay questions about it accurately" way

i have read a lot of history! i've done some work in the field, though exclusively about written works so far. but i haven't, like, sat down and memorized a timeline. my grasp of geography is shaky and my grasp of empire and dynasty is worse

i remember in my first class on economics, we had to do a research paper re: the history of a US economic policy, and i picked our Iran deal, and as background i read the wiki pages on US military conflicts in the region and made a timeline and a spreadsheet with context and it was kind of basic background research, but. i dunno. i feel like i'm missing that stuff! i don't want to miss stuff!

probably i should just pick one book on the Achamenids, one on the Sasanians, one on pre-Islamic Arabia, on the life of the Prophet, on the Radishun, on the Umayyads, on the Abbasids, and then on ~the Mongol invasion~ since that would probably include notes on a lot of the smaller dynasties, plus a book on Mongol India, and the Mamluks, Ottomans, Safavids, and Qajars. possibly whoever ran Egypt after the Mamluks? and, like, i'm sure i can sketch a rough oil timeline but my knowledge of the Great Game is so bad and probably should get better. and then write a timeline and summary of the accounts of (counts on fingers) 13-15 books

i love that the smallest version of this my brain came up with is 13 fucking books. (i have read books on some of these topics before, even broad books! but i didn't take good notes.) "middle school understanding" my ass. i'm sure i could find a decent *basic* book for the broad overview i want to hammer down important facts

on the other hand pop history makes me want to scream and tear at my face

on the third hand i did already do a "quiz myself on basic topics and see how right i am" thing earlier this year and while i got many things right it didn't really scratch the "i am missing MAJOR AREAS (for my own definition of adequate knowledge)" gap

man i also really wanna reread that one book re: the Islamic conquest of Iran now that my brain is no longer on fire. at least in the way it was when i was that year

perhaps instead of making a giant reading list i could go just through my notes with my friend and mentor and READ ALL THE BOOKS HE'S TOLD ME TO READ. that would probably be helpful!!! be responsible learner move!

perhaps i should just read two whole encyclopedias. no, that would be inefficient and a poor introduction to scholarship since i would *see* good bibliographies but they might not have the same context as good books

ugh. i also have. like. other things to do. and have spent most of the last 2-3 days in a semi-conscious fiction devouring state, which is not bad per se but it also isn't my favorite way to live, especially when it feels like avoidance. which it has. (every day i ignore emails and do not send others i know i should.)

let's go to a coffeeshop tomorrow and conquer emails and mail and fucking. figure it out. take steps in the right direction. move!

Meracydia will be inspired by Africa and Australia both, just like Eorzea is inspired by Europe.

I’ve gotten tired of some things said by the FFXIV community, so I’ve decided to make this post. Let me tell you a fact that it seems some people on Twitter/Reddit/FFXIVForum do not understand - Meracydia will have African influence, not only Australian! I  am so tired that there are people who want to erase us. Do you want proof? Maybe go look and read some of the text about Meracydia that is already in the game…

For example, in the description of Hippo Calf (Minion) that we can get from Vanaspati we can read that Hippopotami are native to Meracydia and remember that Hippopotamus in the real world is a large semiaquatic mammal native to sub-Saharan Africa. I could keep adding more and more stuff like this, but this post would be too long…

The next fact that is very important to be stated is that Meracydia’s placement on the map is not the exact same spot of Australia’s on a real world map. 7.0 map showed us that Meracydia is placed under Thavnair and in real world Australia is not placed under India, but that place is like a halfway between Australia and Africa, so it even further shows that it will be influenced by both Africa and Australia.

I can wait as long as the devs want to see a place inspired by Africa in the game, because as we could see in the game before, that means that they will add gear/hairstyles etc. based on that culture. Examples? In the Myths of the Realm raids give you gear based on Greek culture…

So now my dear fellows, remember that if they add Meracydia, we will finally get our deserved customization!

Now it is time for the other and maybe even worse and a very bad misconception that I’ve seen people are discussing on Twitter, Forum and Reddit calling “Eorzea being irl Africa” “because of its shape and placement on the map”. Let me say it clearly: Eorzea is inspired by Europe, not by our Africa, which with Australia is an inspiration for Meracydia. I’ll try to tell you why that is wrong and why that statement for me is a very concerning one.

Let’s begin with pointing out that the Eorzea-Garlemald conflict was based on Greek-Persian conflict and it was stated in Eorzea Pre-Live Report that “situation in Eorzea similar to the months before the Persian Empire marched on Greece”. In the interview from Famitsu 3/2022 FFXIV devs stated that the Garlemald in Endwalker was inspired by Russia and the Roman Empire (Source) and we can clearly see on the map, that Garlemald is taking a similar spot to Russia (or even USSR) and Ilsabard is like a (part of) North, Central and Southern Asia (both Garlemald - inspired by Russia and Thavanir inspired by India are on that continent) and Othard is East Asian inspired.

The shape of the continent where we start our adventure and its placement is more likely based on Europe when we turn it to the side, not Africa. You just have to tear down Europe from the rest of Eurasia and turn it to the side. I’ll use a vector stock image to show you that.

This is a very similar to the shape of Eorzea, but squeeze it and add more water to some places (keep in mind that the shapes of continents are mostly changed by devs to not resemble the irl ones too much, see Thavanir being an island when India is a peninsula). Also it roughly matches the cultures there, even Ul’dah, since it would be a similar spot to Moorish Spain/Al-Andalus (if someone doesn’t know what that was, go check your history book or look here). Even Ala Mhigo roughly matches the place of Turkey and it was stated by the devs, that the main inspirations for Ala Mhigo map’s placement was Turkey (Source) and Ala Mhigo is “the nation located at the junction of two civilizations and is a geopolitical strategic point”.

Moreover, Africa is much larger than Eorzea, reaching much below the south of the equator, at the same time Europe could match the size of Eorzea, since it's is said to be a small continent (Europe is 2nd smallest continent, Africa is the 2nd largest).

People who claim that Eorzea is Africa give a very bad message in my opinion (especially for us, the African community), I will explain to you now, but we must state some facts, that were not stated above:

None of the races that we can play in the game are truly native for Eorzea, they came here from other parts of the world.

The first race who claim to be “the oldest of Eorzea's native sentient races” are Elezen. (Source)

That is their own claim, but not quite the truth, because in the naming convention post we can read that Elezen were first of those races to arrive in Eorzea, but they came from the north to Eorzea. (Source)

4. That north is definitely not Coerthas, because in the Encyclopedia Eorzea I on page 149 we can read that the Elezen came to the Coerthas for the first time after the Great Hyuran Migration.

5. The Elezen are highly European inspired, their architecture, their food, the fact that their language is highly based on French etc.

6. Once again - other races are also not from Eorzea, they migrated here from other parts of the world.

Now if you can sum up facts, it is painting a horrible picture and now you understand why I refuse that any person will claim that “Eorzea is Africa”, when it’s clearly not. If you still do not understand, let me sum this up for you: If you say “Eorzea is Africa” you give a message that a European based Elezen race (whose language is based on French) are coming from the north and claiming a lot of lands on the continent (Coerthas, the land near Gridania etc.) that in your opinion is supposed to be based on Africa. Can you see it now? Can you see what is that supporting? Also, I will not accept that if Elezen were first to arrive there from playable races with their culture based on European, and that they literally claimed a huge part of the continent, that would mean that we would be compared to the indigenous inhabitants of this lands, which are… the tribes that we deal with in ARR and later and that is unacceptable and I think that I do not have to tell you why…

The placement of the continent is also not matching Africa, since Eorzea seems to be higher as someone stated on FFXIV forum.

Just look at the world from Mare Lamentorum and remember that Coerthas is so far north that you can see Aurora Borealis (I saw it during clear skies weather in Coerthas Western Highlands around 00:40/45 Eorzea time) and that's the thing that you won’t see in northern parts of Africa.

I think that now you understand why the theory of “Eorzea is Africa” is a harmful one for us. Eorzea is Europe, maybe turned to the side, but still Europe. I see no influence of indigenous African culture there. Because of the possible collision of flipped Europe with our continent, Africa got moved and smashed with Australia creating Meracydia, that’s why it’s on the FFXIV map that translated to being between real world Africa and Australia.

Once again I will say, you may yell as loud as you want, but it is already stated in the game that Meracydia has a lot of African influences and you will not erase it. Oh and remember that Australian influence on Meracydia will likely come from Australian indigenous culture, so I’m very happy that they will make a land based on indigenous cultures of both Africa and Australia together. Also, if you still want to erase our culture by saying the lie “Eorzea is Africa” or “Eorzea is in the shape and place of Africa so you don’t need anything more” go ahead and live in your delusion. We all know that devs most of the times use culture matching the region (like Ilsabard is Russia and part of Asia with India).

What is the difference between a crocodile and an alligator?

What is the difference between a crocodile and an alligator? There are many differences, including their color, size, snout shape, where they live, behavior, the strength of their bite, and many more.

Both crocodiles and alligators come from the family crocodilian. They appeared about 94 million years ago and have a thick scaly skin. They mostly live in water and are very good swimmers. However, they can move on land as well. They are generally slow, but they can sprint at 14 km/h for short bursts. They are not amphibians, but they can hold their breath underwater for between 15 minutes and two hours. They are related to birds, but they are cold-blooded. They are carnivores but have a very low metabolic rate, so they can survive on one large meal for months. An adult crocodile can survive for half a year without eating. The smallest species of crocodilian are about 1 meter long and the largest species, the saltwater crocodile, grow up to 6 meters long and weigh 1.5 tons. Alligators and crocodiles have a lot of similarities, but they also have several differences. They diverged as a species about 80 million years ago. Incidentally, both of their names mean “lizard”. “Crocodile” comes from the Ancient Greek, krokodilos, which meant “lizard”. And “alligator” comes from the Spanish el lagarto, which meant “the lizard”.

So, how are crocodiles and alligators different? The first difference is where they live. There are 18 different species of crocodile, and they are found in warm, tropical areas. They cannot handle the cold as well as alligators can. Crocodiles can be found in Central America (as far south as Colombia and as far north as southern Florida), central Africa, India, southern Asia, and all the way down to northern Australia. There are only two species of alligator, and they live in the southeastern United States and eastern China. If you are not in either of those two areas, then you are looking at a crocodile.

Alligators and crocodiles also have a different color. Alligators are black or dark olive-brown on top and have a cream-colored underside. Crocodiles are usually green, grey, black or brown. They usually have stripes or a mottled pattern. This coloration shows where they live and how they hunt. Crocodiles tend to live in open water or in water with a lot more algae. Their colors help them blend in. Alligators stay closer to the banks of rivers and lakes, and their colors help them blend into the mud and lakebed.

The two animals vary in size and aggression as well. Crocodiles are much larger than alligators. Crocodiles are also much more aggressive than alligators. This is probably because their size allows them to be. Both alligators and crocodiles are apex predators, but crocodiles are able to catch much larger prey. Alligators have been known to attack bears and panthers, but they are more likely to attack smaller and easier prey. Crocodiles will attack anything if it comes close enough to the water.

Crocodiles and alligators have a different snout shape. Alligators have a U-shaped snout, and their upper jaw is larger than their lower jaw, so you can only see their top teeth when their jaws are shut. Crocodiles have a pointed V-shaped snout, and their jaws are pretty much the same size, so you can see most of their teeth when their mouths are shut. They both have strong jaws, but crocodiles have a greater bite force. In fact, the Australian saltwater crocodile has the strongest bite of any animal. They have strong hard muscles on either side of their jaws that bring their jaws together with a force of 1,678 kg. However, all of their muscles are concentrated on bringing the jaws closed and they have very few muscles to open the jaw, which is why you can easily duct tape a crocodile’s mouth closed.

Alligators have webbed feet and crocodiles do not. This makes alligators faster swimmers than crocodiles. However, crocodiles have longer bones in their legs, so they are able to raise their bodies up when they run on land. Crocodiles can run on land with their bodies touching the ground, or they can lift their bodies up and run. Alligators can only run with their bodies close to the ground.

A final difference between alligators and crocodiles is that crocodiles tend to live longer. Alligators usually live between 30 and 50 years, but crocodiles can live up to 100 years. This is probably because of their size. In nature, larger animals tend to live longer than smaller animals. And this is what I learned today.

You'll also find plenty of waterfalls if you're looking for something more adventurous than just relaxing by the pool with your friends!

Maldives

Maldives is an island country in the Indian Ocean. It is situated between India and Sri Lanka, atolled by 1,192 coral islands (1,190 if you count the minor atolls). This tiny country has been known as “the land of water” since ancient times because of its vast amounts of water surrounding it.

Paris - Paris is one of the most famous cities in all of Europe. You can visit any one of the museums there and see amazing artworks from around the world! There’s also plenty more going on besides just sightseeing—you could check out some concerts or performances at Les Etoiles de la Rue (the Stars of La Rua), which offers theater performances throughout its three venues: Théâtre de la Bourse; Théâtre du Vieux-Colombier; and Studio Kino. Or if you have time left over after touring these places, why not take part in something like cycling through Montmartre? This hike will take about 2 hours roundtrip depending on how fast/slow paced you want your ride!

We should go traveling with my friends

Traveling with friends is a great way to have fun, relax and meet new people. It’s also an exciting experience that will make you feel like you are living life on your own terms.

Traveling by yourself can be very stressful if you don’t have anyone to share it with or take care of when things get tough. Traveling with other people who care about each other can help relieve some of this stress when traveling together as well as making sure everyone has what they need during their trip (food & water).

Conclusion

We hope this list of travel ideas has given you some inspiration for your next trip! We know that it can be hard to decide where to go and what to see, but these places offer something special for everyone. Whether it's the beautiful landscapes.

Ayurveda Ways to Lose Weight

A society that constantly overwhelms us using the next best diet, it can be difficult to remain focused and know what's actually beneficial and effective for healthy weight loss.

Stress is probably the most significant results of weight gain in our society, which means that final thing we need is to panic about that!

Is there a way to lose weight and keep it off-without losing your sanity and jumping from diet to diet, only to relapse and then start the cycle again? There is-and it has proven to road-tested for the last 5,000 years.

Ayurveda, an ancient system of medicine developed in India, is the sister science to yoga. It seeks to avoid disease and promote health, balance, and longevity through simple guidelines that follow the natural rhythms of nature, the seasons, time of day.

Here are 5 Ayurveda ideas that can naturally and gently guide you toward holistic and holistic and healthy weight loss, without using the chemicals, processed food, or extreme diets.

Drink a large glass of warm water with organic lemon first thing in the morning. This boosts the entire digestive system and gives you a fresh start to your day.

Exercising enough to break a sweat is suggested as a daily morning practice for healthy weight loss; 45 to 60 minutes is ideal, but even 30 will do. Find an activity you can do for your entire life, or at least for the foreseeable future.

Find five to 10-or more-minutes of peace and relaxation early morning. Mind/body practices like yoga and meditation, elicit a relaxation response in the body. This helps to alleviate stress, one of the main causes of weight gain. It also puts us in a more mindful and present state of mind, helping us be better decision-makers as our day proceeds.

Eat three meals each day, with no snacking. Food is a fast-burning fuel, and when the body receives a continuous fuel line, it forgets how to burn fat. Have breakfast, a medium-sized meal, between 7:30 and 9:00 am., your largest meal, between 11:00 am and 2:00 pm. Have dinner, your smallest meal, between 5:30 pm and 8:00 pm, when your digestion is weakest.

Experience all six tastes. In Ayurveda, we recognize six tastes: sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent. Be sure to incorporate all six tastes into your daily diet. Sweet, sour and salty tastes are anabolic, or building, in nature and need the pungent, bitter, and astringent tastes, which are catabolic, or burning in nature, to balance them out. Too many sweet, sour, and salty tastes, as seen in the quality American diet, may cause fast weight gain. Foods that are bitter, which can include leafy greens; pungent, which can include spicy chili peppers; and astringent, such as pomegranate seeds, offer healthy counterpoints to the building nature of the sweet, sour, and salty tastes.

These simple steps can acquire profound effects on your life. However, it's essential fulfill yourself where you are, in order to maintain sanity and not create more stress. Decide if this plan is something you will most likely take on full throttle, or if merely a piece or two could be incorporated into your routine at the present. It's okay to begin with small steps.

Laparoscopy Camera Suppliers in Jaipur: Ensuring Precision in Minimally Invasive Surgery

In the modern medical field, technology plays a critical role in improving surgical outcomes and enhancing patient care. Among the many advancements in surgical techniques, laparoscopy has emerged as a game-changer. A key component of this procedure is the laparoscopy camera, which allows surgeons to view the internal organs with precision and minimal invasion. If you’re looking for Laparoscopy Camera Suppliers in Jaipur, you’re in the right place. Jaipur is home to several reputable suppliers offering high-quality laparoscopy cameras designed for various medical procedures.

What is a Laparoscopy Camera?

A laparoscopy camera is an integral part of a laparoscopic surgery system, providing a magnified, high-resolution view of the internal organs during surgery. This enables surgeons to perform precise operations without making large incisions. Laparoscopy cameras are used in various medical procedures, including gynecology, urology, gastroenterology, and general surgery.

The camera is inserted into the body through a small incision, and it transmits real-time video footage to a monitor, allowing the surgeon to navigate and operate using specialized instruments. With advancements in imaging technology, modern laparoscopy cameras provide sharper images, better depth perception, and enhanced color reproduction, which significantly improve surgical accuracy.

Importance of High-Quality Laparoscopy Cameras

The success of laparoscopic surgeries largely depends on the quality of the laparoscopy camera used. High-resolution imaging helps in identifying even the smallest abnormalities, allowing surgeons to make accurate decisions during surgery. Low-quality or outdated cameras can result in poor visibility, leading to complications or extended surgery times.

Moreover, laparoscopy cameras with advanced features such as 4K resolution, auto white balance, and LED light sources are essential in ensuring the safety of both the patient and the medical team. Therefore, healthcare providers must procure their laparoscopy cameras from trusted suppliers who offer cutting-edge equipment.

Why Choose Jaipur for Laparoscopy Camera Suppliers?

Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan, is a growing hub for healthcare services and medical equipment supplies. The city has a large number of medical equipment providers who cater to the needs of hospitals, clinics, and healthcare centers not only in Rajasthan but across India. The availability of laparoscopy camera suppliers in Jaipur ensures that healthcare providers can access world-class equipment without the need for outsourcing or international shipping.

Suppliers in Jaipur offer a wide range of laparoscopy cameras, from basic models to advanced systems with high-definition or 4K imaging capabilities. These suppliers maintain partnerships with leading medical equipment manufacturers, ensuring that the products meet international standards for safety and efficacy.

Features of Laparoscopy Cameras Available in Jaipur

The laparoscopy cameras supplied in Jaipur come equipped with various features that enhance surgical precision:

High-Definition Imaging: Many suppliers offer cameras with HD or 4K resolution, providing superior image clarity.

Autofocus and Zoom: These features allow for better control during surgery, ensuring that even minute details are visible.

LED Light Source: Cameras equipped with LED lighting provide bright, clear visuals even in dark surgical fields.

Durability: Most laparoscopy cameras available in Jaipur are designed to withstand repeated sterilization and usage.

Compatibility: The cameras are compatible with a wide range of laparoscopic instruments and surgical systems.

Conclusion

Choosing the right laparoscopy camera is crucial for the success of minimally invasive surgeries. By opting for trusted Laparoscopy Camera Suppliers in Jaipur, healthcare professionals can ensure they are using state-of-the-art equipment that meets global standards. With top suppliers offering advanced laparoscopy cameras equipped with the latest features, Jaipur continues to support the medical community in delivering high-quality healthcare services.

Interior design is not just the placement of furniture or decision on the most suitable color to use. Basically it is a task of designing beautiful, utilitarian spaces that would properly meet and represent their client. At present, interior design has got a very big market in India due to changing face of homes, offices, and commercial establishments. For any student who is aspiring to be an interior designer or any professional who intends to upgrade their education, it is informative to know some of the elements of interior design profession. This blog throws light on the abilities possessed by the Indian interior designer and how education focusing on an interior design course or fashion design course in Unitedworld School of Creative Intelligence (USCI) can influence one’s career.

1. Creative Vision and Attention to Detail

This is perhaps one of the most important concepts that defines a great interior designer; the ability to create. The foreseeing skills of an interior designer have a lot to do with designing a space way before it is actually built. Such a vision helps to free designers from conventional standards and possibilities and introduces a number of options for spatial, illumination, and planning arrangements. Creativity is a good thing, but one needs to be precise in order to implement the designs in question. Colors to choose from and the size and shapes of furniture and accessories let even the smallest details give outstanding results.

How USCI Helps:

Along these projects, students of Unitedworld School of Creative Intelligence (USCI) are guided to think out of the box and think creatively in their design projects. Typically, the design programms in USCI that are offered alongside other courses such as fashion design courses offer a push for creativity, as well as sharpen focus on details in creating great designs.

2. Understanding of Space Planning and Layouts

For any interior designing to be effective, the designers have to appreciate space planning and layouts. This entails mastering how to utilize the space that is available and at the same time ensure that the client’s functional and even aesthetic requirements are met. In India especially when it comes to residential and commercial buildings or apartments there is always limited space to spare and hence optimization is a must. It is crucial that designers learn to approach design problems with more than just two-dimensional concepts but should imagine how various components will fit in the final design solution.

How USCI Helps:

As a member of the United States Institute for Theatre Technology, USCI curriculum covers practical as well as aesthetic aspects of space planning as well as other techniques, allowing the student to design functional, well-thought-out interiors.

3. Knowledge of Materials and Textures

When it comes to materials and textures they definitely can and do set the tone of a room. This can involve choosing and specifying the proper materials, for instance, wood, metal, glass, and textile, and how they relate with light, color, and all the other factors. In India, there are plenty of traditions of using local material, which is both economical and environment friendly. For architects and designers themselves must realize that each material has certain characteristics and versatility to be able to make an optimal choice that creates both the durability and attractiveness of space.

How USCI Helps:

As in the degree programms, USCI’s design programms provide students with the necessary details of the substance and its use. This kind of knowledge prepares the students to engage in a number of experiments with materials and choose the best textures and finishes for spaces they create for functionality and beauty.

4. Client Communication and Interpersonal Skills

Interior designers interact with their clients, therefore, good communication is required in this profession. Before a design can be developed, there is a need to understand the client’s vision, his or her choice, and the amount of money he or she is willing to spend on the project. One has to give a professional outlook to the work on the one hand, and on the other hand, be open to criticism. Moreover, interpersonal skills enable the designers to deal with contractors, architects, and vendors in the course of project implementation to achieve the project objectives and promotion.

How USCI Helps:

USCI has prepared its students to not only work on the aspect of the design but also on the marketing aspect and the ability to communicate their ideas to the clients. Industry-based projects and clients are incorporated within the courses apart from enabling the students to interface and improve their communication and teamwork skills.

5. Project Management Skills

Designers often oversee multiple projects at once, managing everything from timelines to budgets. Strong project management skills are necessary to keep things on track, ensuring that the design is completed on time and within budget. This requires organizational skills, time management, and the ability to prioritize tasks effectively.

How USCI Helps:

USCI places emphasis on project management within its design programms, teaching students how to manage budgets, schedules, and resources efficiently. This prepares graduates to handle the demands of real-world projects with confidence and professionalism.

6. Technical Skills and Software Proficiency

Modern interior design heavily relies on technology. Designers must be proficient in various design software tools, such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, and 3D modeling software, to create detailed plans, layouts, and renderings. These tools help visualize the space before construction begins, allowing clients to see a virtual representation of the final design. Technical skills also involve understanding building codes, safety regulations, and how different structural elements affect the overall design.

How USCI Helps:

At Unitedworld School of Creative Intelligence, students are trained in the latest design software and technology, giving them the technical edge needed in today’s competitive industry. Whether working on fashion design courses or interior design projects, students are equipped with the skills needed to excel.

7. Sustainability Awareness

Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor in interior design. Indian interior designers are expected to incorporate eco-friendly practices, materials, and designs that minimize environmental impact. From energy-efficient lighting to sustainable furniture, designers need to create spaces that are both stylish and sustainable.

How USCI Helps:

USCI is committed to teaching students the importance of sustainable design. Through courses that emphasize eco-friendly practices and materials, students learn how to incorporate sustainability into their design projects, meeting the growing demand for green interiors.

Why Choose USCI for Your Interior Design Journey?

If you’re passionate about design and want to develop these essential skills, pursuing a design programm at Unitedworld School of Creative Intelligence (USCI) is an excellent choice. As one of the leading institutions in India for creative education, USCI offers a diverse range of programms that cater to students interested in interior design, fashion design, and more.

Cruising Over Goan Waves

Goa, India's smallest state, is synonymous with vibrant beaches, lively nightlife, and a rich blend of Portuguese and Indian cultures.

Here are the top five reasons why booking a yacht in Goa should be on every traveler’s bucket list.

Why Are Yacht Parties In Goa The Best? 

1. Luxurious Privacy

One of the primary reasons to book yacht parties in Goa is the luxurious privacy it offers.

Imagine lounging on the deck, surrounded by the vast Arabian Sea, with only the sound of the waves and the sea breeze for company. This level of privacy is hard to match in Goa’s bustling tourist hotspots.

2. Scenic Coastal Views

Goa’s coastline is breathtakingly beautiful, and the best way to appreciate its scenic beauty is from the sea. A Yacht in Goa offers panoramic views of the Goan coastline, revealing hidden coves, pristine beaches, and lush greenery that are often missed from the shore. The perspective from the water showcases Goa in a whole new light, highlighting its natural splendor and architectural marvels like old Portuguese forts and churches. Sunsets over the Arabian Sea are particularly spectacular, painting the sky in hues of orange, pink, and purple, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for an unforgettable evening.

3. Exclusive Water Activities

Fishing enthusiasts can try their luck at catching some of the local fish species, while thrill-seekers can enjoy the adrenaline rush of jet skiing. These activities are typically tailored to the guests’ preferences, ensuring a personalized and thrilling experience.

4. Customized Itineraries

One of the significant advantages of booking is yacht on rent in Goa price and the ability to customize the itinerary. Unlike fixed schedules of tourist boats, a yacht charter offers the flexibility to plan the day according to personal preferences.

This personalized approach allows travelers to explore Goa at their own pace, discovering hidden gems and enjoying unique experiences that are not accessible to the average tourist.

5. Gourmet Dining Experience

Gourmet dining on a yacht is an experience in itself. Most yachts come with a personal chef who can prepare a variety of cuisines to cater to the guests’ tastes.
