The lymphatic system is part of the immune system where cleansing of blood, and the detoxification of our bodies takes place. A huge network of lymphatic vessels recycles blood plasma by removing fluid from the tissues, filtering it, and carrying it back into the bloodstream.
These are 10 foods to add into your diet to boost the lymphatic system:
* Water
May not be a food item, but essential to life. Drink plenty of clean, purified water. Water keeps the lymph fluid hydrated and flowing smoothly.
* Cranberry
Cranberry is an amazing emulsifier of fat which means it helps break down excess fat for the lymphatic vessels to carry away.
* Leafy greens
That green nutrient has powerful cleansing properties and beneficial effects on the blood and thus on lymph fluid as well.
* Nuts and seeds
The essential healthy fats found in seeds like chia, nuts, olive oil, coconut oil, and avocado, play a role in fighting inflammation. They also strengthen our inner organs walls.
* Adaptogenic herbs
Goldenseal, Echinacea, and Astragalus are three herbs that help alleviate inflammation and congestion of the lymph nodes and vessels.
* Garlic
Garlic boosts immune function and combats harmful microbes. It improves circulation and aids in the cleansing of toxins. It boosts the function of your lymphatic system and contains antibacterial qualities.
* Ginger / Turmeric
Both have beneficial effects on digestion and circulation; two systems that are tied directly to the processes of the lymphatic system. Also they help reduce inflammation, thin blood and improve circulation.
* Seaweed
Sea vegetables help the body detox and eliminate excess fluid that can build up in tissues and slow the lymphatic system down.
* Citrus
Citrus fruits aid hydration, carry powerful antioxidants and enzymes, and help cleanse and protect the lymphatic system.

This image was scanned from an item in the Williamson Collection of some 450 photographic glass slides and other items, which was acquired by the archives section of the Auchmuty Library. The collection was assembled by Archdeacon A. N. Williamson, who served for many years in the Diocese of Newcastle, as well as travelling extensively in the South Pacific area. The collection vividly portrays town and country life in Australia, particularly in Sydney and the Hunter Valley, soon after the turn of the century. The collection also illustrates life in Japan, Papua New Guinea, Nauru and Fiji, from the turn of the century until the mid-1930s.

Thomas James Rodoni was born in 1882 at Hotham East, Victoria, to
Swiss and Irish parents. While living in Sydney in August 1914 as a man of
31, Rodoni joined the first Australian Imperial Force that would engage in the
Great War: the Australian Naval & Military Expeditionary Force. A week after
enlisting, Rodoni’s company embarked on the HMAS Berrima and sailed
to German New Guinea among a fleet with orders to seize two wireless
stations and to disable the German colonies there.
Rodoni’s unofficial photographs – many of them “candid” shots, captured
in the moment – are a rare glimpse of this pivotal moment in Australia’s
history. He has documented the energetic atmosphere of prewar Sydney
and its surrounds, from civilian and military marches to battleships docked
in Sydney Harbour, with accompanying crowds of people brought together
for these special events. His camera voyaged with him on the expedition to
the Pacific region, taking images both from the ship’s deck and then again
on dry land after disembarking.
Rodoni was stationed in New Guinea for five months with the AN&MEF
after the successful capture of territory from the German forces. His striking
images are testament to his ease with the camera, and the ease of his fellow
servicemen around this avid amateur photographer. He used his camera to
record daily events and significant moments in the expedition, and made
several group portraits of the officers and soldiers in his company. Yet his
images also suggest a genuine curiosity for the foreign people and places
where he was stationed, and a love of the photographic medium in which
he practiced during this early period of the war.
After leaving New Guinea with the AN&MEF and returning home to Australia
in January 1915, Rodoni left the force to work in a Small Arms Factory
manufacturing munitions for the war. He soon married and settled in
Newcastle with his wife, Catherine Annie Wilson, and had four children:
Thomas, Mary, Jim and William (Bill). The wider collection of glass plate
negatives – over 600 in total and with many views of Newcastle and its surrounds is an incredible legacy to Thomas Rodoni and his family.
Rodoni died in 1956 as a result of a car accident in Waratah, Newcastle.
The original negatives are held in Cultural Collections at the Auchmuty Library, University of Newcastle (Australia).

SoNIA (Social Network Image Animator) is a java package for making animations of dynamic networks. Networks in SoNIA are not limited to the standard notion of a set of relations among a set of entities at a given point in time. Instead, consider the entities (or nodes and individuals) as a stream of events. Every event has a real-valued time coordinate indicating when it occurs. If the event is not instantaneous, it also has an ending coordinate to indicate its duration. A node-event, for example, can describe a company that comes into existence on Jan 1, 1990 and then dissolves on June 1, 1996. Alternatively, a node event might describe a single observation of a node, such as an individual in a friendship survey wave done in 1995. These images represent a movie of a classroom attention network built from a streaming record of interactions collected by Dan McFarland. The dataset consists of repeated observations of social interactions in over 150 high school classrooms during the 1996-97 school-year. In the network movie, the interaction was depicted from one of these class periods using 2.5 minute time slices (average tie value in each), a .5 minute delta, and multi-component Kamada-Kawai layout process. As such, there is a sliding window of 2.5 minutes of interaction always being shown. The authors selected this time-window because it is wide enough to capture enough of the interaction to represent fluid patterns or network forms, and narrow enough so as to not merge a variety of interaction routines together, thereby confounding meaningful configurations.

The author, second from right in the front row, visited an Amazon fulfillment center with her group of Training with Industry fellows, all from Army acquisition. After a year spent working at Amazon, the author suggests that an online marketplace, with thousands of vendors and multiple delivery options, seems a more efficient way to make recurring purchases of basic items that acquisition staff currently have to spend time contracting for.
