Did you know ? November is Healthy Skin Month?

Your skin is the largest organ on your body, and says so much about your health. It reads in strength and vibrance. It shows weariness, tiredness, or lack of good nutrition. Your skin is what people see as your overall health and vitality.

So, how do we improve the health of our skin?

We start with the inside! Sally Kravich, Holistic Nutritionist and author of the book Vibrant Living, says ?Beauty begins from the inside out. Often, we look to external products to make us feel and look more beautiful. Natural products and regular skin care is beneficial, but beautiful skin begins with the food and liquids we eat and drink.
In Chinese medicine the skin is considered the third kidney. In order to keep the skin alive and healthy, you will want to open the skins pores by sweating and drink plenty of pure water.?

What does that mean?

Sweating through exercise cleans out the pores of the skin, and gives the skin a healthy glow. Drinking plenty of water keeps the skin looking dewy and young. Katherine Goldman, aesthetician and owner of Stript Wax Bar in Los Angeles says 120 ounces of water per day is optimal for skin health.

Internally, vitamins and minerals help with skin health and elasticity.

Nancy Reagan, ?First Lady of Skin Care?, pun intended, says that Vitamin A in the diet is important (available through red and orange-hued vegetables), and ?B vitamins are not stored in the tissues so they must be constantly replenished. Minerals are also being used to support the skin with hydration and immune support (Chloride, Zinc, Potassium). Healthy skin comes from within so not only are topical vitamins necessary, but internal vitamins are very important. With that being said, the nutritional support for healthy skin includes a diet void of chemicals, preservatives, and dairy.? A diet high in processed foods, like canned and boxed foods, brings chemicals into the body, which break down the skin cell structure over time. Natural, whole ingredients are easily used as fuel for the skin?s health, with easy accessibility to natural vitamins and minerals. So, hit the farmer?s market or organic fruit stand whenever possible.

On the external side of skin, a healthy regimen is also important.

Once or twice a week,? you can polish your skin by buffing it lightly, which takes off the dead skin cells that may be sitting at the top. The result is the younger skin underneath glowing through, and the apparent reduction of lines.?

Candice Betz, Director of W Austin?s AWAY Spa?in Austin, Texas, recommends a Pumpkin Facial Scrub to keep skin healthy:

? cup organic canned pumpkin

3 Tablespoons organic sugar

? teaspoon sweet almond oil

Mix and scrub. Put the remaining amount in the refrigerator until further use.

Donna Ryder from Newport, Co. Mayo, is a Sports Scholarship student at IT Sligo and is currently ranked the no 1 racquetball player in Europe. She was conferred with a Bachelor of Business in Recreation and Leisure at the 2012 IT Sligo Conferring.
Mayo graduates were among more than 1,800 graduates conferred at IT Sligo at its annual Conferring Ceremonies last week. President of IT Sligo, Professor Terri Scott, said encouraged the graduates to be entrepreneurial in their outlook.
She quoted the President of the USA Barak Obama who said that ?focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it?s only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realise your true potential.?

Large Hadron Collider may have produced a previously undetected form of matter

Teams at the Large Hadron Collider must be developing a knack for producing tangible evidence of theoretical particles. After orchestrating 2 million collisions between lead nuclei and protons, like the sort you see above, the collider's Compact Muon Solenoid group and researchers at MIT suspect that stray, linked pairs of gluon particles in the mix were signs of color-glass condensate, a currently theory-only form of matter that sees gluons travel in liquid-like, quantum-entangled waves. The clues aren't definitive, but they were also caught unexpectedly as part of a more routine collision run; the team is curious enough that it's looking for more evidence during weeks of similar tests in January. Any conclusive proof of the condensate would have an impact both on how we understand particle production in collisions as well as the ways gluons and quarks are arranged inside protons. If so, the CMS and MIT teams may well answer a raft of questions about subatomic physics while further justifying CERN's giant underground rings.

In the framework of his official visit to Lebanon, President Serzh Sargsyan met with President Michel Suleiman

?

Today, President Serzh Sargsyan has arrived to the Republic of Lebanon of the official visit

At the residence of the President of Lebanon, after the official ceremony of welcoming the President of Armenia, Presidents Serzh Sargsyan and Michel Suleiman conducted private negotiations which were followed by the negotiations in the extended format with the participation of the delegations of the two states.

After the negotiations, there took place the ceremony of signing official documents. In particular, signed were Agreements on the ?Visa free regime for the holders of diplomatic and service passports? and ?Mutual recognition of the higher education and academic titles.?

After the ceremony of document signing, President Serzh Sargsyan planted a tree in the Presidential Garden as a token of the Armenian-Lebanese friendship.

At the Presidential residence, the President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan and the President of the Republic of Lebanon Michel Suleiman recapped the results of the negotiations at the joint press conference.

Statement by President Serzh Sargsyan at the joint press conference with the President of Lebanon Michel Suleiman

?

?Dear Mr. President,
Ladies and Gentlemen,

I once again express my thanks to President Suleiman for the invitation to visit the friendly Lebanon and warm welcome extended to the delegation of Armenia. Last year, at the 20th anniversary of Armenia?s independence, we had the honor to host the President of Lebanon in Armenia. This year, the President of the Republic of Armenia is conducting an official visit to Lebanon; the regularity of these visits speaks about the high-level dialogue established between our two countries, high-level relations of our two countries, and the desire to further deepen these relations.

Moments ago, we held productive negotiations with President Suleiman: we have discussed opportunities of engaging new areas in the Armenian-Lebanese cooperation, exchanged views on the international, particularly, Middle East and South Caucasus developments. We have also reiterated that our relations are based on good will, mutual trust and respect.

This year is special, since we mark the twentieth anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. We have noted with satisfaction that the interparliamentary, cultural, educational and scientific ties have been established, signed were over three dozens of documents, whose number will be augmented during this visit, or to be more precise, has already been augmented by two.

We have agreed to use every opportunity to boost our bilateral economic cooperation. We are glad that in the recent period presence of Lebanon in our economy has become more visible.

I have told President Suleiman about the importance we attach to the cooperation with Lebanon on the international arena. In forming its positions, Armenia takes into consideration pan-Arabic interests and interests of Lebanon in particular.

We are deeply concerned with the situation in Syria and with the fate of the Armenians living there. At the gravest time in our history, the people of Syria had heartily received hundred of thousands of the Armenians, and their pain is our pain.

Armenia has always expressed the viewpoint that the bloodshed must stop. We are against the use of force and violence, and not only in Syria. It is impossible to reach a durable resolution without cessation of all clashes from all sides or without a comprehensive political dialogue, which will take into consideration interests of all Syrians. Armenia welcomes the mission of the Special Envoy of the UN Secretary General and Arab League, Mr. Lakhdar Brahimi, aimed at the stabilization of the internal situation and establishment of peace.

Please be assured that if the mentioned above initiatives are called to life, there will be peace in Syria and in the nearest future it will be possible to implement democratic reforms which will reflect the collective will and aspirations of all segments of the Syrian people.

We have also spoken about the NK conflict resolution. We have reiterated that in the South Caucasus, Armenia continues to conduct a policy aimed at the establishment of peace and stability in the region. We rule out any possibility of the use of force and remain true to our commitment to solve the problem through the negotiations with the mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group. Unfortunately, the neighboring Azerbaijan rejects every proposal of the Minsk Group aimed at the confidence building and continues an unprecedented accumulation of weapons, preparing its people for a new war. It is gaudily proved by pardon extended to the murderer Safarov by the President of Azerbaijan and his glorification. It constitutes the continuation of the murder, conducted on ethnic grounds, and presents a telling example of xenophobia and racism.

The Armenians and Lebanese have always stood out for their love for peace. Today too, we have concurred with President Suleiman that changes which reflect the will of the people should be implemented through peaceful means, without use of force, without victims, without terrorism. We learned with great sorrow the news of a terrorist act in Beirut on October 19 and did not hesitate to condemn such a repulsive act which, we hope, will not shatter peace in Lebanon. Present situation in the Middle East is tightly linked to the security of Armenia. We are deeply interested in a speedy resolution of the existing problems and are ready to assist the process within the limits of our capabilities.

In conclusion, I wish that the historical procession of our brotherly nations will be incessant and upward. Let peace, justice and optimism be our constant companions.?
