Spicy Aloo Tikki Recipe

 

Aloo tikki, or spiced potato fritters, are to northern Indian what fish and chips is to Britain and Australia. A near ubiquitious street food, best served hot, crispy, and satisfying salty. Substitute ketchup for chutney, and a banana leaf for a twist and it’s a perfect match. Though it must be admitted that aloo tikki is a bit more sophisticated.

Crispy Aloo Tikki is a popular street food chaat in India that can be made in a variety of ways.  Any way you prepare these tikkis, they are sure to turn out great!  They taste especially delicious with mint chutney, or cilantro chutney, tamarind chutney. One of our favorite toppings is minced jalepeno peppers or spiced chola (this recipe for crispy aloo tikki is with spicy chola topping).

Enjoy!

NASA’s Game Changing R5 Robot

As we move forward and as humanity moves outward into space, the preparation is huge for it is risky and will show extremely hazardous environments such as those missions to Mars and asteroids that will be encountered. Having fully-operational robotic help ready to assist in dangerous tasks could be crucial during long-duration missions beyond Earth. NASA is seriously considering this matter and it could usher in an age of new humanoid robots!

NASA is counting on robots to setup and care for deep space exploration facilities and equipment pre-deployed ahead of astronauts. Robots are also excellent precursors for conducting science missions ahead of human exploration.

Humanoid machines could easily undertake activities dangerous for future astronauts. That is why the agency is developing a six-foot-tall humanoid robot called R5 which was previously known as “Valkyrie”. It was initially designed for use during disaster-relief missions  but now creating more dexterous autonomous robots, designed to operate in extreme space environments and expeditions to Mars and beyond.

Extreme space environments are dangerous for humans. And, robots are ideal for dangerous tasks. NASA already has rovers on Mars. This is an effort to advance autonomy of humanoid robots. We will have a better understanding of when and how humanoid robots will help with future deep space exploration.

Law of Attraction Magnetic Power 

The Law of Attraction and its magnetic power reaches out into the Universe and attracts other thoughts that are vibrationally like it… and brings: Your attention to subjects, your activation of thoughts, and Law of Attraction’s response to those thoughts is responsible for every person, every event, and every circumstance that comes into your experience. All of these things are brought into experience through a powerful magnet as they are vibrational matches to your own thoughts.
You get the essence of what you are thinking about, whether it is something you want or something you do not want. It could be unsettling at first, but in time, it is expectation that you will come to appreciate the consistency, and the absoluteness of this powerful Law of Attraction. 
Once you understand this Law, and begin to focus & pay attention to what you are giving your attention to, you regain control of your own life experience. And with that control you will again remember that there is nothing that you desire that you cannot achieve, and nothing that you do not want that you cannot release from your experience.
When when we’re in that place of negativity, we’re only attracting more of the same. We’re unwittingly sending out the signal of struggle, disappointment and negativity to the universe – and, it matches up with more of the same.
Although it’s probably the last thing most would like to do in moments of setbacks, pain, disappointment – forgiveness can actually shift all that. It helps us let go of what’s keeping us attracting more and more negativity, so we can shift into a better future.

Recognizing Law of Attraction and the absolute correlation between what you have been thinking and feeling and what is manifesting in your life experience—causes you to be more aware of the stimulation of your own thoughts. You begin to notice that your own thoughts may be stimulated from something you read, or watch on television or hear or observe from someone else’s experience. And once you see the effect that the Law of Attraction has upon these thoughts that begin small and grow larger and more powerful with your attention to them, you will feel a desire within to begin to direct your thoughts to more of the things that you do want to experience.
