Most of the data used in this research is published by Professor Drackley (founder of transition cow research in dairy cattle nutrition)
-Dry herd represents app. 40-70% of the total herd of a typical dairy farm, yet, the feeding practices and nutritional programs does not focus primarily on them. The current presentation presents some concepts related to transition cows and replacement heifer that can be potentially used in those systems where fodder cost are high or purchasing new cows is expensive.

Diabetes SA's Annual Food and Health Seminar 'Mediterranean Magic' was held on Saturday 21 February 2015 at the Adelaide Convention Centre in their brand new Panorama Rooms.
After the opening by General Manager, Fiona Benton, the 400 guests (approx.) were informed of all of the benefits of enjoying a Mediterranean eating pattern through including legumes and nuts every day by Dr Alison Coates, from the University of South Australia.
At morning tea time, guests were invited to enjoy tasting some of the Mediterranean foods through mini sweet potato, button mushroom and spinach frittatas, mini chicken, tabouleh and hummus wraps and diced fruit with vanilla bean yoghurt. Guests were also treated by the Australian Mushroom Growers Association with a very tasty mushroom, rice and quinoa salad, which everyone seemed to enjoy!
After morning tea, Glenn Cardwell, an Accredited Practising Dietitian from Perth, entertained the crowd and discussed the many benefits of consuming vegetables and most importantly, consuming mushrooms as part of your five serves of vegetables every day.
Then to show guests how easy it is to embed the Mediterranean style of eating into every day meals, Danielle (Health Promotions Officer) and Dayna (Dietitian) from Diabetes SA conducted a cooking demonstration where they made rice paper salad rolls and berry and yoghurt parfaits.
Feedback from the seminar was very positive and the venue was beautiful with stunning views of the river and Adelaide Oval.
Thank you to all who attended and organised the seminar, making it a great success.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
