Mária Telkes, a visionary scientist, harnessed sunlight to transform the lives of women by making energy accessible, safe, and sustainable. In 1948, she collaborated with architect Eleanor Raymond to create the Dover Sun House in Massachusetts, a pioneering home heated entirely by solar energy using innovative salt-based phase-change materials that stored heat even on cloudy days. This wasn’t just a technological feat; it was a bold statement of independence, freeing women from the burdens of coal-dependent, smoke-filled kitchens and unreliable fuel supplies. Telkes’s inventions, including solar ovens for developing communities and solar-powered desalination systems, prioritized women’s safety and autonomy, replacing labor-intensive tasks with clean, reliable energy. Despite facing dismissal in a male-dominated field, she secured over 20 patents, driven by a relentless belief that every problem had a practical solution. Her work, from warm homes to sunlit stoves, offered women dignity and security, proving that solar energy could be more than light—it could be freedom. Dubbed “The Sun Queen,” Telkes’s legacy endures in her empathetic, revolutionary designs that continue to inspire sustainable innovation.

My family has used the amino acid L-Lysine for cold sores(Herpes simplex) for decades. It works best if taken on an empty stomach. It may also help with chicken pox, mononucleosis and Epstine-Barr. Some forms of L-Lysine come with B6 for better absorption The best form of B6 is Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate. A family member whose work requires repetitive wrist action uses it daily along with a multi vitamin or B-complex. B Vitamins work best in complex.Benfotiamine worked well for a friend of mine. It is a synthetic compound that is similar to vitamin B1 but is more bioavailable and easily absorbed by the body. When consumed, Benfotiamine is converted into thiamine, a nutrient that is essential for optimal metabolism, brain function, and nerve health. Unlike Vitamin B1, which has low bioavailability and is easily excreted, Benfotiamine has higher levels of bioactivity, and is retained in the cells for a more extended period.In Germany, doctors will prescribe Alpha Lipoic Acid for nerve problems like peripheral neuropathy. ...

RED ALERT: www.tinyurl.com/StopSection453 -- The snakes are in the House. The U.S. House of Representatives, that is. The U.S. House Appropriations Committee/Subcommittee on Interior and Environment is scheduled to vote Tuesday, July 15, at 10:00AM Eastern Time on a bill containing a deeply disturbing provision—Section 453—that would grant sweeping immunity to pesticide manufacturers when their products cause harm. U.S. Rep. Mike Simpson (R-ID-2), who is also the Subcommittee Chairman, is attempting to sneak this under America's nose. Even if you took action in the last few weeks, it’s critical that you speak up again today.This is the latest attempt by Monsanto et al to use bought and paid for politicians to avoid accountability when their products cause harm, and to prevent states from adding warnings to weak EPA-required pesticide labels.If Section 453 remains in the Appropriations Bill, pesticide manufacturers would effectively be given permission to poison people and planet without accountability. Deception and shortcuts would become standard practice throughout the pesticide industry. We The People, farmers and families, would suffer the consequences. Got Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma after using Roundup herbicide? Too bad. You can’t sue. Got Parkinson's disease from exposure to paraquat herbicide? Tough luck! There’s no accountability.This is absolute insanity and it must be stopped.There’s no time to lose. Click and send an email to your U.S. Representatives. Take a minute to edit if you can to make it your own.If your Representative is a member of the Subcommittee on Interior and Environment (see list and phone numbers below), take a minute to call them. You can keep it simple and say, “I oppose immunity for pesticide corporations. I demand that you remove Section 453 from the Appropriations Bill.”Then share with family and friends and ask them to do the same. It takes a village!The snakes in the House aren’t shedding their ties to the pesticide industry anytime soon. Let’s remind them who they really work for!Take action now: tinyurl.com/StopSection453U.S. House Subcommittee on Interior and EnvironmentRep.
