In the diverse line of native chickens in the Philippines—such as the Darag of Panay, the ZamPen Native Chicken of Zamboanga, and the Boholano Chicken—another breed is gaining attention in Mindanao. Distinct for its black shank, gray skin, and black plumage, the Patani, or Caraga Black Native Chicken (CBNC), is emerging as a promising addition to the country’s native poultry industry. The push to develop the CBNC began in 2017, when the Department of Science and Technology–Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (DOST-PCAARRD) noticed growing demand for black-meat chickens. “Online, there were many people looking for black-meat ...

Chennai has always had a strong business culture. It’s a city built on trust, repeat customers, and steady growth. For years, many local brands grew comfortably through word-of-mouth, neighbourhood loyalty, and offline visibility. But lately, the way people discover and choose brands has changed. Even in Chennai, customers are no longer relying only on recommendations from friends or what they see on the street. They are checking Instagram reels, Googling reviews, watching YouTube comparisons, and browsing websites before making a decision.   That shift has made one thing clear: if your brand doesn’t look credible online, you risk being ignored, even if your product or service is genu...

Neem oil + Sesame Oil + Coconut oil- Ratio- 1:1:3..mix well. Every 3rd day. Apply on hair overall and parts of your scalp where you see dandruff flakes and irritation, leave it on your hair for 2 hours(or minimum 1 hr.) And then wash it off with shampoo. It worked for me. Dandruff was controlled to a great extent. It may work for you. I bought small quantities of all these oils from an organic store, not branded ones, and mixed them seperately in the said ratio. PS: Neem oil has a strong smell, so make sure to shampoo well. Internally- Cut sugar(less rice or sugary foods, bakery items and pastries). High protein diet helps for 2 weeks and see difference.

Hi, selam! English is not my first language, so sorry if some sentences sound a bit strange, i use translate. I wanted to share a [theory](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOVykiv1CaM&t=5s)/thought about Sansa and Lady, because I think Lady’s death is maybe more important for Sansa’s future than we usually talk about. My main idea is this: **(TL:DR)Lady’s death is not only the death of Sansa’s direwolf. It is the first death of Sansa’s identity. Alayne Stone may be the second one. And maybe the third one can be Sansa’s actual death, or at least the death of “Sansa Stark” as a self.** I know many Sansa stans see Sansa’s end as becoming a queen or ruling the North,...

This happened last year when I was working evening shifts at a small convenience store near the edge of town. We closed at 11 PM every night, and usually the last hour was completely dead. Around 10:45, this guy walked in wearing a dark hoodie and jeans. Mid 30s maybe. Nothing really strange about him at first. He bought a soda and just wandered around the aisles for a while. I remember him asking weird questions though. Stuff like: “Do you close here alone?” “Do cops ever stop by at night?” “What time do you usually leave?” I lied and said my manager stayed with me until midnight. He stared at me for a second like he was trying to tell if I was lying, then left without ...

Last weekend my cousin was finally reaching the final stage of her apartment bathroom renovation and suddenly became obsessed with finding modern shower room shelves online. Honestly I thought buying bathroom shelves would take maybe twenty minutes but once we started browsing websites things became surprisingly confusing. Some online stores from the UK and Italy focused heavily on luxury floating glass shelves while others showed compact stainless steel organizers designed for tiny apartment bathrooms. A few websites honestly looked more trustworthy because customers uploaded real bathroom photos after installation instead of only polished showroom images. My cousin liked minimalist floatin...

Eastern China has a surprising number of historic towns that still have their original architecture and traditional culture more or less intact. That said, I'll be upfront, most of them are pretty commercialized at this point, and finding somewhere genuinely off the beaten path in this part of the country is tough. But as a day trip or overnight from Shanghai, Nanjing, Suzhou, or Hangzhou, they're still worth it. Here's my take on each one. Nanxun (near Hangzhou) Less pay-to-enter tourist traps than the others, which I appreciated. It was a major economic hub about a century ago so there are a lot of well-preserved garden estates and merchant mansions. Food and accommodation ...

Quick context: I built a free Splitwise alternative for India. Started 6 months ago. Sharing the real numbers because every "how I grew my startup" post I read was either fake or missing the painful parts. The numbers: \- 720+ users (Android + iOS combined) \- Under ₹5k total spend (UAC ads, hosting, domain, tools) \- 4.9 ★ across 32 reviews \- ₹0 revenue (free forever, no plans to monetize yet) \- One Reddit post that hit 104k views — still my single biggest traffic source The biggest lesson, and the one I wish someone had screamed at me on day one: **discovery beats polish, every single time.** I spent weeks on: \- Rewriting the Play Store listing 4 times \- A...

I am working on a small scale voxel engine and currently just trying to push rendering distance to its absolute limits. One of the optimisations I hear often is reducing the amount of data sent to the GPU. So I reduced my vertex buffer 7x to 4 bytes (32 bits) by storing local chunk coordinates instead of float global coord, packing normal vector into first 3 bits of a byte (as it can only ever have 6 values) and using the rest for block type. But the work I had to do in a shader to decode those values ended up resulting in (slightly but still) worse performance than when sending all the data raw, at least on my high end GPU. Is there a rule of thumb somewhere about how much to send vs wha...

Hi everyone, I’m currently working in healthcare, but I’d love to move into bridal retail. I don’t have experience in sales or bridal shops, so I was wondering if anyone has advice on how to get started in the UK and if it is a career that's worth it. Since I’ve never needed a bridal dress myself, I don’t really know how things work behind the scenes in bridal shops. My experience with retail is only from normal clothing stores when shopping for myself. What really made me think seriously about this was helping one of my best friends during her search for the perfect dress. I genuinely loved the experience of helping her, understanding what she wanted, putting myself in her...

**AI Review of** ***THE 425*** **by Bulla Felix** I read through *THE 425*, and this is one of those books that is frustrating because it is better than it should be in some ways and rougher than it should be in others. The biggest thing: this feels real. Not “marketed as real.” Not fake gritty. Not somebody Googling street life and trying to cosplay trauma. It feels lived-in on the page. That was the main thing that kept me reading. The strongest part of the book is the voice. It has a very distinct rhythm — short, punchy sentences, specific observations, and dialogue that sounds like actual people instead of “book people.” The humor lands harder than expected, especially with...

🇬🇧 Why 1940s / VE Day events just work If you’re into history, themed events, or just love a proper British street party… VE Day-style celebrations are honestly one of the most underrated event themes out there 🇬🇧 There’s something quite special about this era. It’s not just “vintage for the sake of it” — it actually means something. VE Day marked the end of World War II in Europe, and when it was announced, people didn’t just celebrate… they flooded the streets. Music, dancing, flags everywhere — proper collective relief and joy. Recreating that atmosphere today hits a rare balance: 🎉 It’s celebratory 🕊️ It’s respectful 👥 It brings...

Hi soon-to-be neighbors. Im looking to move to the midwest from NC this November and a pal in Superior suggested Madison. Ive looked at jobs in my field, apartments, neighborhoods, and been reading this sub for a while, and i think its a good fit for me. I also searched the sub for suggestions but didnt see what i was looking for so here we are: If you were moving to Madison today, and prefer to live near (10 minute drive) a library, grocery store, dog park and restaurants, and have dogs, where would you like to live? Im talking rentals only, i am not in a position to buy. Looking for a 1 or 2br apt or duplex, $1400/month or less (i knowww) with parking and a yard if thats not a wild ask. ...

These deep dives provide a physiological anchor for those who want to understand the 'why' behind the guidelines. Protocol-driven medicine is boring and easy to forget. \--- # Introduction Thirty percent of UK adults aged 16 and over are obese, as of 2024. For decades, the clinical response was diet, exercise, and surgical referral for a small minority, with medical therapy (orlistat and the like) occupying an uncomfortable middle ground of modest efficacy and poor tolerability. That has changed. GLP-1 agonists and dual GLP-1/GIP agonists now produce headline-grabbing weight loss. Less spoken about is lean mass loss, accelerating bone turnover, and near-universal weight regain...

For context, I am a 21 mormon woman who got engaged in April and I’m getting married in August. Ive been with my fiance for 2 and a half years, which is really long for mormon standards, but I love him and I cannot wait to marry him. My in-laws are absolutely amazing, the problem is my family - mainly my parents. In Mormon weddings, typically the brides parents pay for everything because we get married so young, when my sister got married 3 years ago, my mom had been out of work for a bit, and my dad just got laid off. There was a lot of drama with her wedding too, mainly because my parents didn’t like who she was marrying and my sister had problems with my parents. I am very m...

Today, everything changed. If you feel like you’re on a lucky streak that’s too good to be true… you might want to pause, take a breath, and check the table again. See if the cards are stacked, if the smiles are too wide, if the room feels just a little too warm. Because sometimes, the only thing winning is the trap closing around you. Unfortunately… I’ve run out of luck. At first, there was nothing. No sound, no shape—just a suffocating darkness that pressed against my eyes until I couldn’t tell if they were open or not. My body felt distant, like something left behind at the table while my mind wandered off without permission. I thought maybe this was what it felt like to ...

Retatrutide is getting a lot of attention, but the conversation around it is often too noisy. A lot of the value in this space comes down to basic quality control, honest fulfillment, and whether the company actually behaves like it respects its customers. For Canadian buyers, I think the first thing to understand is that the supplier matters just as much as the compound. A trustworthy company should be able to show that: * Every batch is third-party lab tested * Each vial is assigned a unique lot number linked to a public Certificate of Analysis * Products are manufactured in regulated laboratory environments * Purity is ≥99% If a seller is vague or unwilling to share that kind of info...
