Advertising Free Credit Report Free Psychics Advertisement Venus - Aphrodite in Astrology Wars, Conflicts, and High Prices First Page Venus Love, Beauty, and Pleasure As marvelous and lovely as Venus is, don’t let her kid you. Unlike the Greeks, the ancient Mayans of South America identified this wandering star as a deity of war. This was likely because the Mayan astronomers found this wandering star to be so often associated with the beginnings of wars and conflicts. Heck! Despite what one might think, even for the Greeks it was no surprise that Aphrodite (Venus) enjoyed stirring things up. In her form as the ruler of Taurus, Venus is highly involved what she considers to be valuable. Most often this includes being interested in money, possessions, and/or other commodities that are considered to be valuable. How many wars have been fought over money and/or the control of natural resources? High Prices Back to those high prices that I mentioned earlier I’m reminded of the early Christian church desert monks who chose to cut themselves off (often literally) from Venus and all of her fleshly carnal desires of the world. The high price [other than the obvious one involved in physical castration] that these monks paid was that Venus then caught them up in a proverbial “Catch 22.” The further out into the desert that these holy men moved and the harder that they worked at exorcising and purifying themselves of any, and all, of their worldly and lustful desires for women – all the more that these holy men were then plagued and tempted with disgusting, impure, and polluted thoughts that they then attributed to attacks of the evil one.

Many would argue that only foods made historically in Mexico (made for at least the last 100 years) can qualify. However, the blending of cultures has brought many variations to authentic Mexican food. Historic Mexican The Mayans used to populate Southeast Mexico subsisting on wild game, fish, squash, beans and corn. Corn was of such importance that a corn god had to be worshipped for a good harvest. Along the coasts, tropical fruits played a more important role in food preparation as well - often showing up in seafood recipes. Mayan food is the basis of what is now considered "Authentic Mexican." Sample dishes include tamales barbacoa ceviche and atole.

Brazil still grows sapodillas for the commercial production of gum. The sap of the sapodilla as called chicle - hence the gum known as Chicklets. Sapodilla is most often eaten straight and chilled. It also makes a great addition to a salad with a fruit vinaigrette dressing or a fruit salad. Some squish sapodilla into homemade ice cream or sherbet. Smoothies can also benefit from the addition of this sweet fruit. Some culture will also serve it stewed of fried with ginger. The most common description of sapodilla flavor is a pear soaked in ice cream. Some believe the taste is closer to brown sugar or molasses.

I don't want to live in the past, but sometimes I wonder if we of the twentieth century don't think too highly of our modern technology. Sometimes I still use a few of those primitive counting digits known as fingers. Rather than glancing sideways to make sure no one sees, I should take pride in the illustrious heritage of such a technique. It accounts for why most number systems use base 10. Some areas (perhaps where barefeet was the norm), developed base twenty systems. The Babylonians, however, used a hexasegimal (base 60) system that was so functional that today, 4000 years later, we still use it every day whenever we tell time or refer to degrees of a circle.

Scriptures, especially Hebrew, are abundant with hidden references to them.

Advertising Free Credit Report Free Psychics Advertisement Is Chocolate healthier than green tea? "Chocolate contains up to four times the anti-oxidants found in tea." Sound too good to be true? In fact, that was the conclusion of a recent study by Holland's National Institute of Public Health and Environment. Researchers found that chocolate - specifically dark chocolate - contains 53.5 mg of catechins per 100 grams. (Catechins are the powerful anti-oxidants that help prevent against cancer and heart disease). By contrast, 100 ml of black tea contains a mere 13.9 mg of catechins. Eating chocolate to stay healthy? Well, why not? Scientists have established that there are important health benefits to be gained from drinking red wine, so why not chocolate as well? But I wouldn't trade my morning cup of tea for a box of truffles just yet. For one thing, as Karen Allen points out in a report for the BBC, the amount of cocoa powder in chocolates may be quite small. Chocolates often contain other ingredients, such as saturated fats, that more than outweigh the health benefits to be gained from cocoa's cancer-fighting chemicals. More importantly, the Dutch researchers were not comparing chocolate to green tea, which is rich in catechins. Furthermore, evidence is mounting that scientists have only begun to discover the numerous health benefits associated with drinking green tea. Still, a cup of green tea with a chocolate biscuit or a piece of dark chocolate sounds like a great way to begin the day!
