Here are some more information for Lomo Action:

Beet was looked upon by the Romans as being good for cooling the blood. Beet root is also found to benefit against feverish conditions, especially in growing children. Later generations found that beet root was also beneficial for a very strong specific action to regulate the digestive system.

The Doctrine of Signatures, which suggests that every plant illustrates its medical purpose, supposed that beet, because of its redness, was good for the blood. In fact the iron content is not particularly high, although it is said to be present in a form that is easy to assimilate.

The whole beet family (remember sugar beet) is rich in easily digested carbohydrates, even so the calorie content is not high. The red beetroot tends to concentrate rather than lose its mineral content when boiled for two hours, but the vitamins are generally reduced. Therefore when used therapeutically beetroot is usually juiced raw. Beet root juice taste has a stimulating effect not only upon the nerves of the tongue but also on the nerves in the intestines.

In Germany there is widespread use of beet juice, which is available in pasteurized form in bottles, as a powerful restorative during convalescence. It follows that beets are also good for general weakness and debility of all sorts. In combination with other juices, especially carrot and cucumber, beet juice is not only a splendid blood builder but also one of the finest therapies for sexual weakness, kidney stones, gall bladder, kidney, liver and prostate troubles.

Beet juice still remains a potent force the secrets of which are far from being unlocked. It is, after carrot, one of the chief juices in the science of natural healing as practiced on earth. The chlorine present in beet juice acts to regulate digestion by controlling the peristalsis, or natural rhythmical contractions of the gut and, because of this, the assimilation of food during the time of recovery is much assisted.

Uncooked beets keep rather better than many vegetables. If you cook beets it is important to avoid damaging or cutting the skin. If this happens the red color will leach out into the cooking water leaving the cook with a very pale beet of unattractive appearance. If the skin is accidentally damaged the leakage of color will be very much reduced if you add a few drops of lemon juice or cider vinegar to the water.

The dark green beet tops should not be discarded because they are rich in carotene and in minerals. They may be juiced in small quantities as an addition to other juices, whilst steamed they make a good and cheap alternative to spinach.

Kevin Pederson has been managing a number of natural home remedies websites which have information on information on common cold as well as importance and value of beet juice.

How to Ride the Winds of Change

We humans can learn a lot from animals. Our frisky wild friends are smart. They are natural Change Riders. That’s why many species have been around this earth for millions of years. They go with the current, instead of against it. In fact, they’ve learned to anticipate life’s changes and prepare for the inevitable with grace and ease.

Why Wait?

Many species of animals exhibit pre-adaptive behavior—a very wise approach to life’s constant undulations. Animals don’t wait until life has them up against a wall forcing a shift. Sensing the new demands of life coming down the pike, animals take the initiative. For example, many mammals developed longer body hair generations before the coming of the last Ice Age. So when the freezing temperatures came, these species were ready to deal with the new cold climate.

Sensing the Future

Precognition, or the intuitive ability to see into the future, is common with most animals. Critters usually know when a disaster is about to occur. Animals will head for high ground above the flood plain of a river hours before the cresting waters head their way. And since the beginning of recorded history, virtually every culture in the world has reported observations of unusual animal behavior prior to earthquakes.

In 373 BC, historians recorded that creatures deserted the Greek city of Helice in droves just days before the town was devastated and fell into the sea. The Greek historian Diodorus Siculus wrote that snakes, weasels, rats, centipedes, worms and beetles headed inland in huge numbers before the disaster. Before a 1783 earthquake in Messina, Italy, the howling of dogs in the street was so loud that the authorities issued orders to kill them.

Animal Intuition Saves the Day

It was the Chinese who were the first to successfully forecast a major earthquake using observation of animal behavior. On February 4, 1975, the Chinese successfully evacuated the city of Haicheng, a city of one million people, only days before a 7.3 magnitude earthquake—based primarily on observations of unusual animal activity. 90% of the city's structures were destroyed in the quake, but since the entire city’s population had been evacuated before the quake struck, few were injured. An estimated 240,000 lives were saved.

In 1989, Jim Berkland, a geologist in Santa Clara County, California, predicted the Lomo Prieta 7.1 magnitude earthquake by observing the number of advertisements for lost cats in local newspapers. Berkland reported that after a decade of observation, he noticed that cats tend to disappear shortly before earthquake activity.

In his book When the Snakes Awake, Helmut Tributsch lists a large number of recorded instances of extremely unusual animal behavior before an earthquake. These include seabirds flying inland, cattle reluctant to enter their stalls, fish jumping out of the water onto dry land, bees evacuating their hive in a panic, deep sea squid coming up to the ocean surface, and bears and snakes coming out of hibernation prematurely.

Rats Play Lifesaver

Another example of our lifesaving furry friends is the tendency of rats to desert a ship that is doomed to sink. Historically, sailors wouldn't board ships that the ship’s rats had evacuated. Seaman had learned that a ship without rats meant that there was something fatally wrong with the ship, or that the vessel was destined to encounter disaster of some kind.

The Snow’s A Comin’

And in less dramatic examples we take for granted, every wild animal senses and prepares for seasonal changes. Geese fly south way before the weather gets cooler. Squirrels stock up on nuts in the summer for the inevitable cold of winter.

Heed the Early Warning Signs

Humans could take a page or two from the animal survival guide. Life gives us signs, also, to direct us along life’s rambling road. If we pay attention, these messages can help us to flow better with the present, and thereby, the future. And—have you noticed? —if we don’t get the message, life gives us a lesson. If we don’t get the lesson, life gives us a problem. If we don’t handle the problem, life gives us a crisis. A wise person chooses to get the initial message!

Take Action

In the Lakota Indian language, the word for “to get the message” is the same word as their word for “my life has changed.” In other words, in the Lakota culture, if people don’t take action on life’s signs and make changes in their behavior, they didn’t really “get the message.” For the Lakota, receiving guidance and acting on it are one and the same. Unfortunately, in our modern society, we have the socially acceptable habit of saying we get the message—but then not taking the appropriate action on it. A very counterproductive cultural trait!

Like the animals, smart humans learn to successfully navigate through the myriad of life choices by acting on the precise guidance system that the outer world constantly presents. Not only do native peoples live this way, so did all ancient civilizations—right through the time of the Greeks up to the Middle Ages. Even Shakespeare’s plays are full of references to sensing omens and signs—and the human folly of not honoring their directives. It’s only in the last few hundred years—since the Industrial Revolution and human alienation from the land and nature—that we have lost touch with the art and wisdom of reading and following life’s outer signposts.

A Change Surfer opens the door to more magic, meaning and money in his or her world by heeding the wisdom of life’s signals. Practice makes perfect. As we master the skill of responding to the messages aligning us with our spirit’s unique path, we will prosper—and enjoy the journey!

Make Love Last Longer!

If we embrace change in our love life, we can extend the honeymoon and afterglow indefinitely! Partnerships in which each party encourages the other to explore and grow can deepen as they transform. Relationships that are allowed to naturally evolve can last years, even decades—even lifetimes!

Re-Spirit Your Life

The effectiveness of your own personal style of dealing with change defines the level of success that can be achieved. Create a change-friendly attitude and approach that is exciting and playful. Catch the joy of your own spirit! Develop passion in your heart. People who have a fire in their belly and a zest for life can overcome all of life’s surprises. A Change Rider stretches his or her consciousness to envision what's possible, not just what is. If you foster your natural strengths, you can respond successfully to all life’s challenges.

Review: Time seems to melt away while savoring the tapas at S. Dali
The menu's more than three dozen tapas (small plate) choices range in price from $3.50 to $7.50 '” less expensive than many other tapas restaurants in the Bay Area and, I would argue, more in the spirit of tapas. This is the kind of place where a couple can go, share half a dozen or so tapas, a couple of drinks and leave satisfied without paying a king's ransom.
