And they're a great snack food — inexpensive, easy to store and easy to pack when you're on the go. One drawback to nuts is that they're high in calories, so it's important to limit portions.

EBOLA VIRUS

Ebola virus disease (EVD; also Ebola hemorrhagic fever, or EHF), or simply Ebola, is a disease of humans and other primates caused by Ebola viruses.

Ebola hemorrhagic fever is a disease caused by one of five different Ebola viruses. Four of the strains can cause severe illness in humans and animals. The fifth, Reston virus, has caused illness in some animals, but not in humans.

Signs and symptoms typically start between 2 days and 3 weeks after contracting the virus as a fever, sore throat, muscle pain, and headaches. The disease has a high risk of death, killing between 25 percent and 90 percent of those infected with the virus, averaging out at 50 percent. This is often due to low blood pressure from fluid loss, and typically follows 6 to 16 after symptoms appear.

The virus spreads by direct contact with blood or other body fluids of an infected human or other animal. Infection with the virus may also occur by direct contact with a recently contaminated item or surface. Spread of the disease through the air between primates, including humans, has not been documented in either laboratory or natural conditions. The virus may be spread by semen or breast milk for several weeks to months after recovery. Fruit bats are believed to be the normal carrier in nature, able to spread the virus without being affected by it. Humans become infected by contact with the bats or with a living or dead animal that has been infected by bats. After human infection occurs, the disease may also spread between people.

Deadly human Ebola outbreaks have been confirmed in the following countries: Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Gabon, South Sudan, Ivory Coast, Uganda, Republic of the Congo (ROC), Guinea and Liberia.

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION:

• Fever
• Intense weakness
• Severe Headache
• Sore Throat
• Joint and Muscle Pain
• Weakness
• Fatigue

FOLLOWED BY:

• Vomiting
• Stomach Pain
• Diarrhea
• Rash
• Impaired Kidney and Liver Function

IN SOME CASES:

• Both Internal and External Bleeding
• Sometimes Rash, Red Eyes and Hiccups

Ebola virus disease symptoms and signs may appear from about two to 21 days after exposure (average is eight to 10 days). It is unclear why some patients can survive and others die from this disease, but patients who die usually have a poor immune response to the virus.

PREVENTION TIPS:

• Avoid close contact with infected patients
• Avoid Consumption of the raw meat of possible infected animals like fruit bats, monkeys or apes
• Wear gloves and appropriate personal protective equipment when taking care of ill patients at home
• Wash hands after visiting sick relatives in the hospital and after care of ill patients at home
• Dispose of waste safely
• Dispose of needles and syringes safely
• Isolate the patient

Eat Fruits...Stay Healthy!!!

Eating fruit is important to our overall health and well being.

Fruit should be eaten alone or with other fruit on an empty stomach. The best time to eat fruit is either first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, or as a mid-morning snack – in between breakfast and lunch. It’s a good idea, to just eat more fruit at one time, whether it’s fruit salad, an apple or a fruit smoothie. (3-4 servings of fruit is a proper daily requirement, that’s 2 1/2 – 2 cups of fruit). Definitely avoid eating fruit close to bedtime as there’s plenty of sugar in fruit to spike up your energy and keep you up when you need your sleep. If you do eat fruit on an empty stomach, you will gain the proper nutrients that fruit – nature’s perfect gift – will offer to your health .

Super Moon to be sighted today !!!

Yes its true ......today an extra-Super Moon is raising this evening.

Meteorological Office reported, the moon will be seen bigger and brighter because it will be at the closest distance from the earth. When the moon comes close to the earth it appears 16% bigger and 30% brighter than the normal full moon. This is called the Super Moon.

The Super moon on November 14, 2016, will be the closest a Full Moon has been to Earth since January 26, 1948. The next time a Full Moon is even closer to Earth will be on November 25, 2034 (dates based on UTC time).

Best time to see??

The best time to see is at the Moon rise. The best time to enjoy a Super Full Moon is after moon rise when the Moon is just above the horizon, weather permitting. At this position, a Super Full Moon will look bigger and brighter than when it's higher up in the sky because you can compare the apparent size of the Moon with elements in the landscape like hills, foliage, and buildings. This effect is called the Moon Illusion. This will be the best occasion for the photography lovers.

 An extra-Super Moon is rising this evening, and please don’t miss it.

Amazing Ice Sculptures

Ice sculpture is a form of sculpture that uses ice as the raw material.

Sculptures from ice can be abstract or realistic and can be functional or purely decorative. Ice sculptures are generally associated with special or extravagant events because of their limited lifetime which is determined primarily by the temperature of its environment, thus a sculpture can last from mere minutes to possibly months. There are several ice festivals held around the world, hosting competitions of ice sculpture carving.

Below are some Amazing Ice Sculptures.
