Should an ATOMIC BOMB explode in the vicinity: How to escape? Where to shelter?

OHMYGOSSIP – OHMYGOSSIP has compiled a synopsis for our readers – with the help of scientists and experts – about advisable action in the event of explosion of a nuclear bomb in the region. When you notice a sudden intense flash of light that can possibly blind your eyes, it is likely that an atomic bomb just exploded, this is in case its epicenter was within the range of 50 miles (80,5 km). Once you can look around again and unless you are feeling excessively calm, you may conclude that you are still alive.

Additional signs of explosion would be first to third degree burns, this is in case its epicenter was within the range of 16 kilometers. The trademark of the nuclear bomb is, as you may know, the mushroom-shaped cloud in the sky.

As soon as you have figured out what is going on, you should search for shelter to hide from radioactive dust. Try to find an edifice with thick walls, the thicker the walls the better.
For example: most suitable are buildings with thick concrete or brick walls and no windows, or underground shelters such as basements and cellars.

Hiding in that kind of places it is likely that the amount of received radiation is 0,5% or 1/200 from the radiation outside. The best option would be a bomb shelter, however that would not always be at hand.

Wooden constructions such as rack houses in modern residential areas do not guarantee significant protection from radiation. If you know a nearby building that would do and it will take you less than five minutes to make it there, it is worth the risk. Should it take already 15 minutes outside to reach the destination, then remain where you are for the next hour and then move to a better spot. This precaution is because the fall of radioactive dust will remarkably diminish by that time.

Once you are in a building with thick walls, make sure to keep away from doors and windows. If possible, take a shower or simply wipe the exposed skin with a wet towel, also uickly take off the contaminated clothes. Put the clothes in a plastic bag, close the bag and take it as far from where you yourself are as possible. While in a shower, use shampoo and soap, but do not rub or scratch the skin. Also, do not use conditioner, since it will glue the radioactive particles to your hair. When finished with the shower, also blow your nose and brush the eyebrows, eyelashes and ears, to remove as much of the remaining radioactive grime as possible.

Note that you should drink only bottled water and eat food from undisclosed containers, until the rescue team reaches you. As you wait there, you can listen to the radio in  order to learn about the relevant events and perspective of finding help.

Top 8 helpful home safety tips for kids

OHMYGOSSIP — Kids at home? Well, there is going to be a lot of jumping here and there, a lot of waste generated, a lot of falling down. Being a parent, there are some safety measures you should undertake so that your child least hurt. Don’t go to an extreme where you encase your child’s freedom.

Do you need a CHALLENGE? These are the most complicated places to access in the world + VIDEOS!

NordenBladet – Modern traveling opportunities are fast and powerful, letting us visit most of the places in the world during one day. But there still exist a few places which are very hard to get to. There are even a few places where a human has never stepped his foot. If you are looking for a traveling challenge, then Lonelyplanet has chosen three places for you.

Pitcairni island
Located in the Pacific Ocean and belonging to the Great Britain, only 49 people live there. The closes airport is 531 miles away on Mangareva island. But even from there heads just  one flight per week to Tahhiti. All the necessary stuff is brought from Mangareva to Pitcairni once each 3 month by boat, the journey takes 32 hours. The return ticket for this boat trip costs 5000 USD dollars. If you feel like you should move temporarily to Pitcairni, you’ll be given a free piece of land to build a house.

Kerguelen islands
The islands located in the middle of the Indian Ocean are also known as the Desolation islands. The distance from the nearest populated point to Madagascar  is 3300 km. There are constantly around 50-100 scientists on the island. The Kerguelen islands are visited once in three months by a ship which departs from the Reunion island, the trip takes 6 days. The highest points of the island is a peak of a mountain which has been conquered only by a few people. That’s why the island is considered to be one of the most isolated places in the world.

The volcano of Sidley
Sidley is Antarctica’s highest volcano (4284m) and is situated in the region’s most isolated place – on Marie Byrdi land, which doesn’t particularly belong to any country. It is already complicated to reach Antarctica as there is no regular transport system to there from any place in the world. In the course of history, only two expeditions have reached the peak of the volcano.

Helena-Reet: OHMYGOSSIP is already a massive brand

OHMYGOSSIP – OHMYGOSSIP is already a massive brand and a company, which is well known in Estonia, Finland, America and Brazil. I am actually quite proud to put up a brand like these apart from having children.

I have been chosen many times Scandinavian’s biggest social media influencer and OHMYGOSSIP webpages are being visited by 3 million readers per month. If you think it’s easy to achieve something like this, you’re wrong. It has been 10 years of hard work with an aim to secure my children’s future. In the next 5 years I’m aiming to grow the turnover of OHMYGOSSIP to 5-10 million euros and use the brand’s name on variety of products. Also I’d ike to think with Estella Elisheva what exactly to do with a youth-oriented brand OHMYGOSSIP Teen and how to develop the brand E&S (Elisheva & Shoshana) created about 8 years ago.

Speech by Prime Minister Stefan Löfven at the memorial ceremony at Stockholm City Hall

NordenBladet — On Monday 10 April, the Prime Minister participated in the City of Stockholm’s official ceremony for the victims of 7 April. The ceremony took place at Stockholm City Hall at 12.00.

Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Excellencies, Swedes, people of Stockholm, friends,
Losing a loved one is the most terrible thing that can happen in a person’s life.
I have thought so much about those of you who on Friday lost someone you loved more than anything in the world.
You now carry with you the memories – of conversations, looks, laughs – alongside your unfathomable loss.
I just want to say this: you are not alone. Our thoughts are with you. Sweden is with you.
* * *
And so many people have done so much for their fellow human beings in the last few days.
Sweden’s brave police officers. Our highly skilled emergency services. Our fantastic medical professionals.
And all of you who discovered the hero within you, who offered help and consolation.
We cannot thank you enough.
Your actions make Sweden proud, and are a testament to people’s incredible capacity in times of adversity.
You put me in mind of the following lines by priest and author Anders Frostenson:
“Our own wounds are healed when we heal the wounds of others.Bowed down by burdens, we are carried.
From the solace I gave another, solace my own heart received.In going to one who needed me, I came home.”
So thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
You were put to the test. You stood firm. You have the gratitude of an entire country.
* * *
And I know that we will get through this as we in Sweden have always done: together.
The strength, the resolve, the steadfast values that Sweden has demonstrated in the last few days can never be taken from us by a murderer.
Our unity will always be stronger than the forces that seek to tear us apart.
Our way of life will never be suppressed.
Our democracy will triumph over fundamentalism.
* * *
Friends,
Sweden, Belgium and the United Kingdom stand together in mourning the citizens we have lost.
Our three countries have suffered horrendous acts of terrorism.But we have also seen the strength, determination and power of our democratic societies.
We will never surrender to terror. We will get through this, together.

The firewood, nice weather and gardening have arrived

OHMYGOSSIP – The winter is over and the weather just keeps getting better – it’s time to get started with gardening chores. I ordered 8 rooms of wood and now it’s time to pile them up. I order unpiled firewood each year and after piling them up think that next year I’ll buy them in a container, so I wouldn’t have to do all the work. But once the time has arrived I feel sorry for the money I’d lose and I still buy the unpiled ones. The price difference is quite huge – unpiled firewood costs 35 euros per square meter and in a container it costs up to 145 euros per square meter.

Before it gets all green out there, I’d like to fix my garden – rake the leaves which have been left there from autumn, cut the dried branches from the garden and put the firewood to the woodpile. Probably I need to order another 8 rooms of this, but even if we won’t use it up it’s good to have some set aside and the wood is dry enough before using them. Raw wood bought in spring is suitable to use it for autumn but it’s even better if it’s set aside until the next autumn.

In my eyes anything natural should be considered a luxury. I like the simple cottage house with its fresh air, big garden, privacy and eco lifestyle much more than the city life. No force could push me to move back to the polluted city. The simpler and more natural, the better! The less TV controls, wires, concrete and the noise of the city, the better! I like stove heating, fresh air and silence, I like to eat my garden’s outcome. I like to be the so called village girl nearby the city. Whoever lives at the countryside knows that time moves in another rhythm in the countryside. The course of events in the countryside is different – more peaceful and enjoyable. I like that I’m in no rush, that there is no nervous and hectic hustle nearby me, that I see elks or rabbits or cats from my window not trams, busses and cars in 7 lanes. Of course I’m not completely independent from the time, how could I if I have two children. Both go to school in the city and I can’t escape going to the city on daily basis, but the rest of the time flows in our rhythm and that is so nice! By the way, the birch juice is already running! Whoever has the chance, drink it! Birch juice cleans the body, carries the power and energy of the ground and gives you a new vibe! You can read more about the birch juice from HERE.

READ, why the birch water is good for your health, what does it contain and how could it help you

OHMYGOSSIP – Right now is the right time to collect the birch juice! Birch water is good for spring’s detox and helps to energise the body. The birch juice gets rid of the unnecessary toxins and at the same time contains essential vitamins and minerals which give you more power and energy.

What is the birch water about?
The birch water is water that the birch roots resorb from the ground, push along the caudex and where the nutrients set aside last summer combined into new nutrients reach the branches as buds. For the buds to turn into leaves. Tapping the birch water human directs one part aside. Different trees give a water of different sweetness.

The birch water contains: water, glucose, fructose, vitamins (C, PP, carotene), plant-based hormones, saponins, sugars, apple acid, protein, iron, phosphor, calcium, potassium, magnesium, zinc, aromas. The nutrients in birch water are easily absorbed by the human body, our body can use the nutrients effectively.

In folk medicine birch water is known as an effective kidney’s helper. Spring detox cures are recommended for rheumatism, podagra or muscle tension. In folk medicine birch water has aided for numerous health issues: fights fatigue and stress refreshing, fights the sense of hunger eases headaches excretes excessive salts and energises kidneys’ work alleviates podagra, rheumatism and edemas speeds up the metabolism and fights cellulite.

Pay attention if you have kidney or bladder stone:
Drinking the birch water should be started with small portions, not more than one glass at a time as birch water includes nutrients which dissolve stones developed from phosphate or carbon salts and the body might have a strong reaction to that.

Birch water is also a helpful cosmetic tool: Your skin gets softer and clearer when you wash your face with birch water, your hair (especially when you add a few drops of vinegar to the water) become silky.

Conservation:
It is important to conserve the juice in a dark and a cold place. With light the juice will quickly become foggy. In fridge the birch water will stay fresh up to a week. The birch can be tapped for water only for a few weeks but the water detox is recommended to do for a longer time. The birch water can be kept in a freezer.

Cozy meeting near Lake Peipsi

OHMYGOSSIP – Since I’m associated with many projects I often find myself surprised how I can fit to 24 hours blogging in 4 languages, brand development, social media marketing and of course home and my children. I have noticed that I’m the most effective if I am doing many things at the same time and if a new project is about to start. I am then like a rocket plan – that effective and fast that I can do the job of 20 people.

I have developed a timetable which I usually fulfil automatically and it works out well. But for this to work out I need occasional getaways and joint brainstorming. If generally I prefer to work alone and in silence then brainstormings should be done face to face and away from the everyday environment. Everybody needs a breath of fresh air and employees are very motivated by a short getaway!

Last week I did a 24-hour getaway to Lake Peipsi (Estonia) and the meeting was that effective and enthralling that we thought to start doing it regularly (at least once per month). The brain switches to another vibe and the spirit gets away from the routine – a work getaway is two in one – work and a holiday. And Peipsi  is always wonderful!

I am trying to take after Kris Jenner and be a mom manager for my daughters

OHMYGOSSIP – I have written about this before (in an interview I gave to the media in Finland) that one of my idols is Kardashian’s “gang” leader – Kris Jenner. She has kickstarted all the careers of her daughters and is still in charge to lead them higher in their careers. She has made a name for both her current husband’s and previous husband’s labels – in my eyes she is a very talented and powerful woman!

I always try to take after the talented and powerful ones and analyse how I could use their ideas for success for myself. I am sure that nothing moves if you don’t move them. I am sure that those kids whose parents support them have a bigger chance to succeed. Children interests, hobbies, talents and personality are developed at a very early age and based on them and discussing their future with them can lead to interesting solutions which enables you to take action immediately. As we all know it – youth sells! But the youngster doesn’t know how to sell herself.

My idea is that if you know already in kindergarten that your kid loves to perform, then you should do something about it. If you see a stronger interest towards something, you should do something about it. We all want our kids to do well, succeed. We all want a secure future for our children and support them. At least I o want and I take it very seriously.

Although I need to think a bit about myself, for the past 10 years kids are my priority nr 1 – daughters  Estella Elisheva (10) ja Ivanka Shoshana (8). If I wouldn’t want to secure their futures, I would probably enjoy an easy life as apparently it’s possible. I could start my morning with a workout and SPA, head to manicure and hair treatments then shopping, chill in cafés, go to the cinema, eat in a restaurant and spend the evening at different events (boutique openings, degustations, fashion shows etc) while my kids are at school. I have chosen an alternative path. I drive my kids from one hobby to another – I’m a daytime taxi driver, logistic and a psychologist who drives, coordinates, supports my kids and on free moments does business. Estella Elisheva is studying 3 languages (Russian, English, Hebrew), practises violin in a music school, goes to ballroom dancing with Kristina Tennokese and Baile Orb. Ivanka Shoshana goes after school twice per week to speaking therapy and in winter in violin classes. Estella Elisheva shows already master-class in violin classes and I’m thinking every day how I could build a career out of that for her.

And a lot of time is spent on OHMYGOSSIP. OHMYGOSSIP is already a massive brand and a company, which is well known in estonia, Finland, America and Brazil. I am actually quite proud to put up a brand like these apart from having children. I have been chosen many times Scandinavian’s biggest social media influencer and OHMYGOSSIP webpages are being visited by 3 million readers per month. If you think it’s easy to achieve something like this, you’re wrong. It has been 10 years of hard work with an aim to secure my children’s future.

Type 2 Diabetes overview: How it damages the body + The best diet for Type 2 Diabetes

OHMYGOSSIP — What Is Type 2 Diabetes? Type 2 diabetes strikes people of all ages, and early symptoms are subtle. In fact, about one out of three people with type 2 diabetes don’t know they have it. This chronic condition thwarts the body’s ability to use the carbohydrates in food for energy. The result is elevated blood sugar. Over time, this excess sugar raises the risk for heart disease, loss of vision, nerve and organ damage, and other serious conditions.
