Allium Sativum L (Pearl Garlic) mitosis (400x)

I'm TA-ing a first year genetics class and we were going through mitosis in the lab :) Stained with Orcein of course.

I've always liked this practical exercise (probably more than the students :P)

Herb names in Latin

I have a poster of common herbs in my kitchen. I just realised that a lot of the latin names would be pretty awesome for someone (and some might be a little out there). Obligatory sorry for formatting. Mobile user 🤷‍♀️.

Ocimum basilicum (basil).
Nasturtium officinale (water cress).
Melissa officinalis (lemon balm).
Anethum A. Graveolens (dill).
Artemisia dranunculus (terragon).
Coriandrum sativum (cilantro).
Anthriscus cerefolium (chervil).
Levisticum officinale (lovage).
Mentha spicata (Moroccan mint).
Origanum majarana (marjoram).
Petroselinum crispum (parsley).
Allium schoenoprasum (chive).
Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary).
Salvia officinalis (sage).
Tropaeolum majus (nasturtium).
Thymus vulgaris (thyme).
Rumex sanguineus (wood dock).
Oxalis vulcanicola (sorrel).
Pisum sativum (pea shoots).

I feel a lot of the names could easily be used, for instance Artemisia, Levisticum, Mentha, Majarana, Allium, Rosmarinus, Salvia, Thymus, Oxalis. I especially like Rosmarinus as a male counterpart to Rosemary.

My overall favourite of the bunch is Oxalis vulcanicola, although it would be a bit much for a baby. It just has an awesome rhythm.

Of the English names, I feel that Sorrel, Marjoram and Thyme might work, aside from the ones that are actually in use already.

Thoughts? Additions?

Genius idea: cook garlic just for the fragrance

While we've all been eating garlic, this one maverick comes along with an idea so brilliant that it may forever change how we view garlic: they heat up garlic and butter just for the fragrance. Their house must be replete with the glorious and intoxicating scent of the Allium Sativum.

Some antifungal herb supplements makes me itchy

So i was wondering whether or not to quit a supplement if it makes me more itchy. The weird part here is within the same day i consume these specific supplements, i get increase genital itch which is the most annoying symptom i know of and it hasn't been much of a problem for a good while since getting a hang of my protocol. However every time i take this specific supplement, it returns, and if i'm not careful it turns into full on genital thrush. Does anyone have experience with this or theories on whether it's a healthy die-off symptom, the candida trying to escape the digestive tract and finding peace other places in my body or something, or if it's just ruining my natural good microbiome? I highly value all your input on here!

The supplement is named BioCare Oregano Complex and has these ingredients:

Ingredients: tapioca starch, vegetable capsule (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), grape seed oil (Vitus vinifera, seeds), borago seed oil (Borago offi cinalis, seeds), oregano oil (Origanum vulgare, leaf), clove oil (Eugenia caryophylless, leaf), anti-caking agent (silica, magnesium salts of fatty acids), garlic extract (Allium sativum, clove), D-alpha-tocopheryl acetate, sunflower oil

Pequeno dicionário da crença e descrença

Agnóstico adj.
O cara que tem nojinho de se dizer ateu mas também não quer se juntar aos crentes desvairados. Se dizem ecléticos mas só ouvem sertanejo e funk. Transam mal. Você chama para o churrasco e eles levam Kaiser.

Ateu adj.
Aquele que não manifesta crença em divindades. Acorda tarde aos Domingos e fica com 100% do salário. Costumam ser bons de cama, por não sentir culpa por estarem sentindo uma sensação boa. Ouvem rock, blues e jazz. Sabem usar garfos.

Budista adj.
O que falar de uma religião que escolhe como nome algo que lembra "bunda"?

Católico adj.
A mesma coisa que o Crente (vide a seguir), mas com grife. Na verdade ele é o agnóstico com nojinho de ser agnóstico, já que não cumpre nem 10% do que o dogma ordena. Por isto ele se diz "católico não praticante" sem a cara corar de vergonha. No final da noite e você não pegou ninguém, católicos podem quebrar um galho, já que transam pelo menos para crescer e multiplicar (Por isto, você precisa levar a camisinha). Costumam beber vinho, mas não espere um Chianti. Vai ser Mioranza e ainda por cima, batizado.

Cético adj.
O sujeito que não aceita fatos porque você disse, porque está escrito num livro antigo ou porque se ele não acreditar, ele vai parar num lugar que ele também não acredita que exista. Eles ouviam Beatles, mas deixaram de acreditar no rock'n'roll. Você não acreditaria como eles são bons de cama. Bebem bourbon, porque não acredita que o scotch seja verdadeiro.

Cientologia s.m.
Cientologia ensina que as pessoas são seres imortais que se esqueceram de sua verdadeira natureza. Seu método de reabilitação psiquiátrica espiritual é um tipo de aconselhamento conhecido como Auditoria, no qual os praticantes visam reviver conscientemente os eventos dolorosos ou traumáticos de seu passado a fim de libertar-se dos seus efeitos limitantes.
(A coisa é uma piada tão pronta que basta copiar e colar o que está na Wikipedia)

Crente adj.
Um pé de dinheiro ambulante, pronto para ser ceifado. Transam mal, por já se sentirem culpados ao abrir um zíper. Não bebem cerveja ou café e a água precisa estar morna e abençoada. Só ouvem Pe. Marcelo e Diante do Trono.

Deísta adj.
Se o agnóstico tem nojinho de ser ateu, o deísta tem nojinho de ser crente. Quando a situação aperta, cai de joelho no chão e apela para qualquer entidade sobrenatural. Não se sabe se são bons de cama, porque ninguém nunca quis transar com um. E ninguém os chama par

Herb island hair growth lotion review
  • Name : Garlic Macadamia Hair Growth lotion
  • Review Type : Rant
  • Price : Rs.399 on website. I bought it for Rs.299 from amazon.
  • Ingredients : Allium Sativum (Garlic) Juice, Fermented Oryza Sativa (Rice) Water, Macadamia Integrifolia Oil ,Trigonella Foenum-graecum (Fenugreek) Extract, Pisum Sativum (Pea) Protien , Soya Protien,Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme) Ext., Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice ,Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Ext., Phyllanthus Emblica (Indian Gooseberry) Ext., Vitamin E, Veg. Glycerine,Behentrimonium Chloride ,Cetrimonium Chloride ,Sodium Gluconate,Ceterath 21, Lanette Wax,Potassium Sorbate,Sodium Benzoate.
  • Texture : Has the consistency of a soft lotion. Neither too runny nor thick.
  • Fragrance : Ugh! I hate the fragrance of this , though fragrance is at the end of the ingredient list it has a very strong fragrance like the men’s perfume kind, sensitive nose people stay away as we are supposed to leave this overnight or atleast for one or two hours. Gave me a head ache when I left it overnight.
  • My hair type : 2A I guess. Not pin straight and has few waves , thin hair.
  • Hair Concerns : Dry ends and an oily scalp. Been facing hairfall for quite sometime. No dandruff.
  • Review : I totally fell for the ingredients ☹. This was so not worth it.! The pump was not working at first so I sent them a mail and got no reply for few days then messaged them on Instagram and they said they’ll send me a replacement for the pump which arrived after a week or so and ukw.. that didn’t work too so I had to transfer the product to another glass jar. I have tried using this in 3 ways but nothing gave me any kind of results. Hairfall was still there didn’t notice change in texture of hair or anything as such except for the headache the fragrance gave me .

First tried leaving it overnight, so I applied the lotion on my scalp and slept with a bun covered with a shower cap and took bath the next afternoon. This gave me headache so never repeated this process .

Second I did the same steps except for leaving it overnight I let it stay on my scalp for 3 to 4 hours and then took bath. I did this every 4th day and repeated it for 3 weeks.

Third as I didn’t find any change in my hairfall and I hated the smell of this also I started missing my DIY hair masks so much as I felt like those made my hair look so much more healthier than this , I went back to using my DIY hair packs and mixed a spoon of this mask approximately into it and
