The city is a sticky stuffy thing

Many of the thinkers who criticized the life of the city with its overcrowding and extreme hustle and bustle, including Dr. Mustafa Mahmoud, who criticized the life of the city by writing these lines.

A city is a sticky, claustrophobic thing

Narrow houses like shops.. People crowded in lines whispering suspiciously, exchanging fear, telling lies, taking sleeping pills and knowing no taste for sleep.. Shaved trees.. Faces covered with powders.. Nails covered with paint.. Lips that were hidden behind cold, traditional smiles that do not indicate. On something.. The language that has become... cheap, flimsy, and vulgar because of the abundance of hypocrisy, pretentiousness, and workmanship that has entered it.. The friendship that has become a craft.. The passion that has turned into a way to reach..

The opportunists who have spread everywhere are buzzing like flies... the innocence that has died.

A chronic disease that has a thousand and one names: ulcers, colon, salts, sugar, pressure, liver, angina, insomnia, anxiety, and it is one disease whose real name is the city.

These thoughts crossed my mind while I was at an altitude of ten thousand feet, flying to Tanganyika, to black Africa.

How white she seemed to me at that moment.. white of heart

I used to feel that I was sick with a chronic disease called "the city"... an incurable disease... an incurable addiction to fabricating everything... artificial speech... artificial behavior... artificial politeness...

My only hope for recovery was the forest. He speaks in his own way, as a jungle beast does when it howls in the morning, without searching for a preamble for its howl.

What a freedom

dreams

Every day we read about... robots... the automatic brain... the electronic mind... and we hear about the invention of a radar eye to guard safes... and the creation of a wireless ear to catch thieves... and an artificial lung for paralyzed people... and an artificial kidney for uremia patients... And a plastic heart for heart patients.

Does this mean that science can equate for us a human being who feels, feels, walks, and speaks like him, just like us.. by simply installing some electrical connections, bulbs, and transistor batteries?

When the man in the street reads this news, he laughs and says with his familiar naivety.

And it's not a naive remark.

This observation is the only profound difference between the machine and the human being.

Any invention, from the wristwatch to the atomic bomb to the moon rocket, is just a game with a zip.

A game that has no brain.. no soul.. and no will.. a game that cannot want for itself.. but rather depends on what you want for it when you turn its springs and control its hands.

The typewriter writes what you dictate to it, but it cannot compose anything for itself.

The calculator subtracts, adds, and divides.. but it cannot get tired, despair, scream, or protest against the absurdity of the numbers it adds and subtracts.

The artificial lung breathes, but it cannot gasp with fear or eagerness.

And the plastic heart beats.. but it cannot beat with love or desire.

And the thing that lacks these things we call the soul.. So what is the soul?

The plank of wood swims in the water.. and the fish of the sea also swims in the water.

But a plank of wood has no will.. All that it does is give itself over to the current, throwing it to the right and left, forward and backward.. It surrenders itself to the natural laws, which lift it up by virtue of its light density.. and it surrenders itself to factors Corruption and spoilage eat in it until it dissolves and crumbles into dust.

As for the sea fish, it moves according to its own mood... it swims against the current... and does not surrender itself to the natural law, but rather revolts against it and swims upwards against gravity... and swims downward against the law of density... and it does not surrender itself to the factors of corruption. Corruption only feeds, grows, multiplies, and attacks every enemy that thinks of killing it.

The sea fish has a soul..

A cotton worm.. and a stick of macaroni sticks.. both of them wriggle in your hand, and both are soft and wormy.. but they are separated except for this appearance.. and they are very different.

The stick of pasta is dried by the sun, melted by moisture, and eaten by ants..and it succumbs to all these factors helplessly..

As for the cotton worm, it resists all these factors with a stubborn will in it.. and it does more than this.. it eats toxaphene.. and gets used to it and gains immunity against it.. and overcomes this deadly poison and overcomes it.. because it has a soul. .

A grain of gravel.. and a grain of corn..they may look alike..and a sculptor can carve a seed out of stone that you cannot separate from a seed of corn..but if you plant the two, each of them will differ greatly from the other.

The grain of gravel will sink into the mud and be pulled by the Earth's gravity.

And from a grain of corn, an embryo will emerge from it that will grow upward like a projectile, rebelling against the earth’s gravity and ascending with its green leaves towards the sun.

A grain of corn has a soul.

What is the soul..

The spirit is a revolution against necessity and automatic laws.. It is freedom, subjectivity, entity, personality, and will

And we say that a person has a soul, because he cannot be controlled by a zombie... and nothing can control him except his mood, his mood, his freedom, and his whims.

And science will not be able to make a human being.. because it only makes dumbbells.. and it only innovates machines and machines in which it exploits the natural laws that it discovered.

It is always within the realm of machines and sensible objects

The soul is the first of its attributes to violate the laws, to be above them, to rise above them, above logic, and above reason, and that is why it is ever-renewable.

It is possible to predict the eclipse of the sun.. and the movement of the moon.. but it is impossible to predict the intentions hidden in a human soul.. because it is not subject to any law other than its own law.. and its whims and moods..

And in one word... it has a soul... it has a secret beyond the reach of any force...

Spirit is freedom

It is an absolute beginning over which no one has control.

Man has a soul.. because there is freedom in him.. and this freedom is what created science with all its inventions and innovations.. and it will create more science every day.. but science will never create it.

There is no illusion that feels as real as love

Love. This magical word that takes up a huge part of the discussion in all places and all arenas of discussion, as if the world is not permissible without it, as if it is the absolute truth that is not adjacent to a truth.

But what is shocking to you, dear reader, is that the issue of love takes more than it deserves in reality if love is compared to a reality like death..and this wonderful article by Dr. Mustafa Mahmoud refutes the matter completely and gives judgment and expressions about love and the truth of its value in life..

There is no reality that we deal with as if it were an illusion like death!! There is nothing more certain than death, and yet we never think that we will die, and if it happens and our thought does not exceed our thinking while they are passing through the breeze.

And vice versa in the case of love, although love is always something that is adorned by imagination, amplified by illusion, embodied by imagination, and desires blown into it, and although love ignites and extinguishes, heats up and cools down, and although its conditions and fluctuations testify that it is a great illusion, we deal with it. With awe, reverence, respect, and submission.. and we remain in this mixing and mixing until we wake up from the shock, so we wake up and regain our senses for days, months, or years, but we soon surrender to a new swoon.

And the reason for the confusion and mixing is always a mistake in the attribution.. We always attribute the beauty that we saw and the tenderness that we tasted to its owner even though she is neither his owner nor his owner.. And if a woman possessed her beauty, it would perpetuate her.. But the beauty did not last for anyone, because it A grant and a loan from God with a fixed term and time, and it is a loan that he takes back at the right time.. Its owner and owner is God, not any woman.

Likewise, everything we adore of tenderness, affection, compassion, dream, and generosity are all dislocations, grants, and borrowed descriptions from the kind, merciful, kind, and generous person.

But the eye that adores beauty misses its lineage and ownership, so it thinks it belongs to its owner, so it adores its owner and worships its owner.

And she remains in this illusion until she wakes up to the ugliness peeking out from under the powders and the cruelty appearing from behind the eyelashes, so she wakes up to the shock and suffers and suffers and regrets and considers and repents, then she returns and forgets and slips into a new illusion..

And that is the continuous heedlessness in which we all live.. We wake up from it for moments to return, and then we plunge into its slumber again. And no one is spared from this calamity except an infallible prophet or a knowing guardian whose Lord protects him and covers him with His protection.. So he does not see wherever he turns except for the face of God.

(Wherever you turn, then there is the face of God)

He is the beauty in all that is beautiful, and he is compassion, tenderness, generosity, dream and affection. his face.

Thus, this gnostic sees nothing but the face of God wherever he turns. He is always whispering, God, God, God, God, God. Everything.. does not exaggerate.. is related to meanings and not to utensils.

It is for this reason that it is not divided, dispersed, or lost in attention, but it is always attracted to God.

But the likes of this man are few and rare, like diamonds and uranium, and the likes of him do not exceed

Individuals and lonely among the thousands of millions of the unconscious crowd

And it is a general and prevailing negligence in which no knowledge, culture, doctorate, or master’s degree can be saved, for these are the doors of vanity that increase negligence. So his affliction becomes double and his back-breaking shock.

Life passes in a series of inattentiveness and fainting, the sum of which at the end is zero, or it is in fact a subtraction and not a plural. In the end, its totality is in the negative and not in the positive, as the life of its owner is decreasing day after day and year after year.. He goes from illusion to illusion and from deception to deception.. His condition is like that of a drinker of salty water, the more he drinks, the more thirsty he gets.. he does not get He is calm and does not attain tranquillity, but is constantly descending from anxiety to anxiety, from rupture to rupture, and from fragmentation to fragmentation, until his life ends without fruit, and his harvest ends in vain.

And that is the hedonistic mentality prevalent today in a pagan world, whose idols are pleasure, dominance and passion.. Everyone idolizes himself, his book is his opinion, and his constitution is his interest.

And the situation in the underdeveloped and developing nations is worse than it is in the developed nations.. And they are nations whose sum is sometimes ((the product of subtracting their members)) and not the sum of their sum, because they are disunited, divided, far apart like islands lost in the sea.. striking each other.. and their resolve is consumed. ...and their power is nothing..


They talk about loneliness.

And there is no unity except in the One.

He alone is the One, there is no god but Him. By which each one emerges from his fragments, nations emerge from their fragmentation, and the world emerges from its division.

The issue is primarily an issue of faith.

It's a vision issue.

How do we see the world..?

And how do we look around us?

And how do we love?

Can we be that gnostic who does not see in everything except the One.. and does not see except the face of his Lord in every beloved.

Can we verify the verse:

(Wherever they turn, there is the face of God).

And in this context we love and in this framework we hate.

That is hard jihad.and no choice..

And there is no other way.

And each one has his intention.

And each and every one..

And the lesson of every life at its conclusion.. Let us hasten to struggle and roll up our sleeves so that the yield of our life is not zero, and so that each day does not lead us to a decrease, and so that each of our days does not become subtracted from the one before it.

God created temptation to test the hearts and for the adults to know themselves and for the children to know themselves from the beginning.

How did the cells come together in the embryo of the plant to form a flower? And how it arose

The flower has feminine organs and male organs, then the bees came with an instinct that they do not realize to transfer pollen grains from the male organs to the female organs, thus creating a fertilized egg that then turns into a seed.

Then a cold wave comes, and the air becomes cloudy, and the clouds fall as rain.. and the water droplets creep into the cracks until they reach the roots, so they strive through their hairy channels until they reach the stems and branches, and climb until they reach the flower to water it again. With its colors, the music of pollination and procreation continues, fruits and seeds come out, and the harvest time comes, and hands stretch out to gather and pick, and the apple reaches your table, so you eat and be satisfied, forgetting this chain of unseen soldiers that have been working at your service since the rising of the sun, and you do not know.. and they are also the same.

You don't know? He is God behind all who commands the elements and manages everything.

Who planted you the plains and the slopes of the mountains? And who planted the forests for you that came out like satanic plants around the equator, and there are coconuts, pineapples, and everything your heart desires? And who froze the water at the poles so that it flows after that in the spring and summer to fill the sources of the rivers so that there will be greenery, legumes, fruits and a rich table of every kind..?!!

And who drives you whales and fish to your shore to hunt and eat these various meals rich in elements and vitamins?!

Have you seen how pomegranates and grape clusters lined up in their picks like agate coral earrings?!

It is clear that there was a pre-arrangement for all of this.. and that there was preparation for this generous and generous banquet.. and geologists.. say that the earth was at its beginning different from the earth.. and the atmosphere was different from the atmosphere.. and that iron came to the earth from particles ejected from stars Explosive in the far reaches of the galaxy in far space

And We sent down iron, in which there is great strength and benefits for people (25 Al-Hadid). Iron came to us from the sky with amazing heavenly mining and equipment.

And this strength would not have been completed and that hardness would not have arisen had it not been for those particles and their formative action in the iron atom to create the coherent iron that we know in its strength, strength and hardness.. and to establish countless arsenals and weapons industries

And the earth that split into flats, plates, continents, and oceans...and the heavens that extended into boundless spaces.

And the sky We built it with hands, and we are expanding (47 - Al-Dhariyat), a reference to the continuous expansion by hidden forces.

And the galaxies have already diverged since their inception.. and the stellar clusters are in continuous glorification and calculated divergence, and space is getting wider.. as if a balloon is expanding, widening, and about to explode.. it is a tremendous formative instrumental.. led by a great maestro like nothing else.. a creative creator

There are no limits to his abilities.. He is the Lord and maker of this universe.

This is his amazing.. wondrous world

So what about our world? What about our upbringing?

God created our father Adam and our mother Eve in a perfect world, then God brought us down from it because of disobedience and the seduction of Satan

And Adam disobeyed his Lord, so he deceive(121- Taha)

He said, "Go down from it, all of you, enemies to each other."(123- Taha)

Thus, our descent from the perfect world to the world of toil, trials, conflict, enemies and wars was our descent into the land of trial and suffering, and the final wisdom in this suffering was the test, examination, sorting and classification, where the ranks come in the end according to their merits. In our world we experience similar stages of sorting and classification in The stages of our education from primary to secondary to university to graduate studies..to the highest grades. Where you can invent and innovate, and you have rights and intellectual property that you sell to whoever you want at the price you want and become a Nobel Prize holder and a millionaire.

The useful conclusion is that this universe in which we live has a meaning.. and that the world is a hypothetical model for its end, which will come later to be perfect in its bliss, perfect in its punishment.. for those who pass this exam.. and for those who fail in it as well.

No injustice today

This is how the hymn of the heavens, including the creatures of the hour of the end, will be.. Because planning is great, justice is absolute, and construction is extremely precise.. No injustice today.. Splendor in everything

But you see all this from the beginning in the leaf of the tree.. in the wing of the butterfly.. in the web of the spider.. in the corn.. in the galaxy.. in the clamor of nightingales.. in the song of the birds.. in the quest of the snake to its hole.. and in the hum of the bee around live it

And you see this in the living cell, in the miracle of the gene, in the protein molecule, in the fingerprint

And you hear with your ears an echo of this amazing composition in a symphony by Beethoven, and in the song of Karawan in the middle of the night.. and in the voice of Fayrouz when it resonates in her Rahbani operas.. and in the voice of Sayyid Darwish when he shouts in his lofty voice.. I am the Egyptian.. the generous of the two races.. and all history erupts with The uprising of his voice.. as if all time stopped to listen.. and then he knew with certainty.. why did God mention Egypt by name in the Holy Qur’an in seven places.. and he did not mention Russia, America, England, or France.. because Egypt is the cradle of all worships.. and the mother of history

Our Lord has mentioned the two fingers in the Holy Qur’an and that He will restore the image of the fingerprint to its original on the Day of Resurrection as it was in this world with its owner

Indeed, we are able to straighten its fingertips and know now.. what is a fingerprint.. and what is the aspect of miraculousness in it.. and how two fingerprints are not alike from the beginning of creation until the Day of Resurrection.. it is a fleeting gesture.. but it makes the mind goosebumps

The speaker is great and knowledgeable in comprehensive encyclopedic knowledge. He speaks from the threshold of absolute sincerity, and we have nothing but listening and reverence.

We thank our Lord that we were born Arabs. We know our Arabic language smoothly and understand it with taste.

I do not like to deviate from the main meaning or from the essence of the context that I chose from the beginning of the article.. that there is a wise deliberate measure in everything.. and that there is no place for chance.. and there is no site for randomness.. and if randomness occurs, then it has a role in the general construction. And it will be necessary in the course of events.. and its time will not be random, but it will be an intentional measure

Everything that happened was planned, intended, and intended from the beginning.. There was a will behind everything that happened

And there was a Creator, Creator and Creator

And what happened had to happen

There is no superfluous member in your face

Distortion, if it occurs, a plastic surgeon appears to treat it

And every herb is an integrated pharmacy

The ant is a collection of poetry in the accuracy of its composition and the multiplicity of its talents

And in the house of the ants there is order, rule, a constitution, and a language. An ant said, “O ants, enter your dwellings, lest Solomon and his soldiers destroy you.” The ant knew Solomon by name.

How do.. ?!

Is it possible for the ant to know you by your name while climbing on the wall and realizing that you are sick and in a perverted mood and telling its family your story.. Will it testify against you in the afterlife and tell about your crime..? What the ant says in the Holy Qur’an indicates that it is a whole world, despite its small size and insignificant status. It indicates that we know about it less than a little.

What is said about the ant is said about any insect, just as it is said about the microbe, the virus, and the corn. The whole world is alive and speaking in its own way. .. It is the knowledge that God singles out for His angels and His messengers

In conclusion, we are ignorant of much more than we imagine.. and that we are blind, deaf, and dumb, despite what we imagine of our fluent tongues, our knowledge of languages, and our study of physics, chemistry, computers, and software.. What we know is a drop in the sea.. What we see is just an incomplete profile, and what we hear whispering.. What we see are ghosts.. What we perceive as frameworks, structures, and addresses, while Matters and facts are mysteries, letters are secrets, and true knowledge is the knowledge of hearts that only inspired individuals can reach

And it is knowledge that can only be with the permission of the Lord of hearts

It is only for the elite of the chosen elite

The door to this knowledge is complete prostration

It is not the prostration of the body alone, but rather the prostration of the heart, the prostration of the senses, the prostration of the mind, the prostration of awareness, and submission of all perceptions to God.

And note to us about this degree of detachment, and I do not think that it comes from diligence.

The weakest knowledge is what you take from a book and what you receive from a teacher

And the greatest of scholars are the chosen ones from their Lord, and they are the messengers and those in their rank

The first stage for acquiring this knowledge is politeness, modesty, not seeing oneself in anything, and seeing God in everything.

Are you from this elite.. and can you have privacy.. and can you have a chance of inspiration

Read the article from the beginning and look back at the life around you and try to understand how its vocabulary came together to compose this wonderful symphony.

And meditate on it prostrating, admiring, fascinated.. That is the beginning of knowledge. As for the end of knowledge, it is what falls in your heart of fear, in your actions of observation, in your conscience of vigilance, and in your behavior of piety.. as Moses said, and he hastened up the mountain in response to the call of his Lord.. and the Jews scurried after him. .

They are on my trail, and I hasten to you, Lord, to satisfy you

(84- Taha)

And just as the foolish do the opposite by hastening to satisfy their whims, and God is more deserving of them satisfying Him.. the condition of the pure and righteous believers is the opposite.. they are not preoccupied with anything but the satisfaction of their Lord alone.

Ask yourself who you are trying to please in your life.. This is the important question

Religion is morals first and foremost

It is behaviour.. etiquette.. and sophistication

It is for this reason that the world and its temptations were created, so that in the end one knows where the aspiration is directed and what the desire is related to

The ascent to Arafat, the circumambulation around the Kaaba, the stoning and the Talbiyah... and jogging between Safa and Marwah... are only symbols of this relentless pursuit... and ablution and prayer are nothing but purification and mobilization for this moment

Prostration itself is a symbol of subconscious reverence

Are you humbled?!

Are you really Sajid?!

So why do you steal, bribe, lie, cheat, and paint like a chameleon with whims and interests? You are therefore a liar.. and your fate in the end.. deportation.. fall.. and the abyss.. Religion is not a wheezing of the tongue, but rather a ascent of the mind, spirit, and conscience.

Religion is not political ambitions, and it is not a means to jump on chairs and manufacture coups.

So why do you steal, bribe, lie, cheat, and paint like a chameleon with whims and interests? You are therefore a liar.. and your fate in the end.. deportation.. fall.. and the abyss.. Religion is not a wheezing of the tongue, but rather a ascent of the mind, spirit, and conscience.

Religion is not political ambitions, and it is not a means to jump on chairs and manufacture coups.. What happens of this kind is worldly deception.

What happened all over the world

What happened all over the world

What happened throughout the world and their width, this rancor and grudge that souls overflow with in the era of abundance, electronics, walking on the moon, agricultural mechanization, and the rise in incomes among farmers and people of crafts and handicrafts? The natural secretion of a materialistic civilization that believes only in the moment, so everyone fights to win that moment with claws and fangs, and everyone competes to plunder, steal and deceive.

There is no accountability, monitoring, or punishment for those who escape and do not tamper after death, and the world has its treasures expropriated, and its bounties have no guardian or owner, so what about the thousands of minarets, thousands of churches, and thousands of mihrabs?

The circles of remembrance and the sounds of muttering and lamentations are words that do not cross the tongue and do not cross the throats, and many say what they do not do and do what they do not say.

Yes..material civilization invaded hearts and conquered souls and intentions fell silent and corrupted most of the people of religion so they are no longer people of religion but people of the world. Matter is behind this panting and gaining gains behind this crowd and rushing with shoulders and underestimating every custom and creation and racing for pleasures and forgetting everything except harvesting the moment behind this corruption that is almost uprooted Humanity from its roots. Moment by moment, the crazy rhythm runs, and the scenes of this descending series follow.. The World 1985.

. As we see it in news bulletins, as we read it on the front pages of newspapers, and as we see it on television.. Rather, the media contribute the largest share in creating this material hunger and this sensual lust among people, and they promote it through novels, serials, and advertising flyers..

And the video leads the panting procession, and everyone runs after nothing. Sometimes I wish this deluge of hubbub would stop and people would take a vacation from this panting, even if it was a sick leave that they would spend in their bed contemplating and holding their souls accountable, and looking from afar at the Street of Life. The filming is over..the decoration is destroyed..

And it is rebuilt for the next scene. Presidents, sultans and emperors take off their clothes and put on the clothes of servants.

The servants wear the robes of kings.. The priests take off their crowns of gold and put on masks of donkeys and pigs.

QUANTITY OF OUNCES IN A CUP

Do you need to quickly determine how many ounces are in a cup? To convert tablespoons to cups, go here. Do you understand the distinction between dry and liquid ounces? Here is the most comprehensive fast reference and measurement chart for handling recipes that are written in both metric and imperial units.

Working with multiple measurements might be complicated because there are so many different recipes available. Sadly, not every measurement is made equal.

Although the language and equipment for dry and liquid ingredients are identical, there is a different formulation for each. Dry measures are based on weight, whereas liquid measurements take the volume of the liquid into account.

Although there are many internet calculators available that can give you one or two answers, they aren't detailed or simple to use. Here, you can easily translate all of your favourite recipes from ounces to cups in both metric and imperial units.

What measurement tools will you need?

You need the following three items to measure the liquid and dry ingredients:

Measurement cups with granules

The dry ingredients are measured using these cups. Sieve the flour before adding it for measurement if you wish to use granulated measuring cups. For a measurement to be accurate, this is crucial.

Even though the majority of packaged flours have already been sieved, shipment frequently causes them to shake up and move about. It's always wise to sift again before measuring as a precaution.

Use the spoon and scrape technique for absolute accuracy. After adding the sieved flour to the cup, use a spoon to scrape off any extra flour. For baking recipes and pastries like cakes and muffins, this is crucial.

measuring cups for liquids

Liquid measuring cups are used when the ingredient is a fluid or liquid. These are used to measure cups, ounces, and millimetres and can be found in glass or plastic. This is excellent for dividing up soup or chilli.

How many ounces of liquid are in a cup?

The next time you measure out ounces for a cup, keep these measurements in mind:

• 8 fluid ounces or 16 tablespoons make up a cup.
• 34 cup equals 6 fluid ounces and 12 tablespoons.
• 4 fluid ounces, 8 tablespoons equal one-half cup.
• 14 cup equals 2 fluid ounces and 4 tablespoons.
• 4.5 dry weight ounces are in a cup. (It applies to dry substances like flour)

Please be aware that not all ingredient amounts are same. For instance, the measurement would be different whether you needed 4 ounces of coconut milk to make a smoothie or 4 ounces of chocolate chips to make chocolate chip cookies.

Since dry and liquid ounces are not equivalent, you should measure dry materials by weight. We measure components in fluid ounces if they are liquid.

Before preparing any dish, carefully verify the ingredients and precisely measure because there is a noticeable difference between fluid and dry ounces.
How many dry ounces are in a cup?

Unlike liquid ingredients, a cup of a dry ingredient will contain different ounces. The measurement with dry ingredients directly depends on the type of the ingredient. 

Here are some examples of common ingredients and how much they differ-

• 1 cup of fresh parsley = 1 ounce
• 1 cup of flour = 4 ¼ ounces
• Air popped popcorn = 3 ounces
• Chocolate chips = 6 ounces

Fluid or liquid volume (Liquid vs dry measuring cups)
Volume and liquid fluid are measured differently.

 Below is a useful comparison:

• US Standard = Metric for liquids (approximate)
• 1/8 teaspoon equals 0.5 mL, 1/4 teaspoon 1.2 mL, 1/2 teaspoon 2.5 mL, and 1/4 teaspoon 3.7 mL
• 1 teaspoon is equal to 1.3 tablespoons is equal to 5.0 mL.
• 1 tablespoon is equal to 3 teaspoons, which are equal to 15 mL and 15 cc.
• 6 teaspoons are equal to 30 mL, 14 cup is equal to 2 fluid ounces, which is equal to 4 tablespoons, which is equal to 59 mL.
• 34 cup equals 2 23 fluid ounces, 5 tablespoons, and 1 teaspoon, or 79 millilitres.
• 8 tablespoons = 118 mL; 8 fluid ounces = 1/2 cup
• 34 cup = 6 fluid ounces = 12 tablespoons = 177 mL 23 cup = 5 13 fluid ounces = 10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons
• 1 cup is 8 fluid ounces, a half-pint, 16 tablespoons, and 237 millilitres.
• 24 tablespoons = 24 fluid ounces = 1 12 cups = 355 millilitres
• 2 cups equals 16 ounces, 1 pint, 32 tablespoons, and 473 millilitres.
• 700 mL is equal to three cups.
• 4 cups equals 32 fluid ounces, 1 quart equals 946 ml, and 1 litre.
• 8 cups = 1/2 gallon = 2 litres
• 1 gallon equals 128 ounces of liquid, 8 pints, 4 quarts, 3785 ml, and 4 litres.

Chelsea vs. Man City result, highlights and analysis as Riyad Mahrez goal closes gap to Gunners

The most recent updates on injuries at Chelsea as Graham Potter gets ready for this weekend's FA Cup match against Manchester City

Prior to Chelsea's second matchup with Manchester City in a few days, Graham Potter had taken three significant hits. On Sunday, January 8, the Premier League champions will host the Blues at the Etihad Stadium as they compete for a spot in the FA Cup fourth round.

Prior to the Premier League match against Pep Guardiola's team on Thursday night, Mason Mount suffered an injury and was unable to play. Just minutes into the first half, injuries forced the west Londoners to replace injured players Raheem Sterling and Christian Pulisic.

The trio add their names to a growing list of ailing athletes at the Cobham practise facility, where Potter may be managing as many as ten absences.

In light of this, football.london has examined all recent injury-related news and anticipated return dates.

Pulisic, Christian

Halfway through the first half, Pulisic was replaced after getting hurt in a John Stones tackle. The American international lost the challenge twice, and his despair was obvious.

He was eventually replaced by Carney Chukwuemeka, who excelled as a substitute. After stepping into Pulisic's shoes against City, the 19-year-old gave Potter some food for thought.

Due to an injury, Mason Mount Mount was left off the starting lineup for the Blues' match against City. According to football.london, the 23-year-old was left out of Chelsea's squad due to a problem discovered during practise.

The west Londoners are hoping that the England international will soon be able to make a comeback after reportedly taking a minor knock. Chelsea has a busy schedule ahead of them, with four more games scheduled within the next two weeks.

Prior to the match against Pep Guardiola's team, Potter disclosed it was caused by a kick in training in an interview with Sky Sports. Blues' manager said: "No, yesterday in training he received a kick. It never rains, but when it does, it pours."

Sterling, Raheem

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang took Sterling's spot in the first few minutes of Chelsea's match against City. The 28-year-old winger collided with Stones and collapsed to the ground while grinning.

Since moving from the Etihad Stadium to Stamford Bridge in the summer, he has done well to avoid getting hurt. Sterling now joins an increasing number of absentees who are suffering with ailments, which is sad for him.

It is unclear how serious Sterling's injury is from playing against his former team. After being replaced, the winger was seen moving unsupported with the team's medical staff as the home crowd cheered him on. This is only encouraging news.

Emmanuel Mendy

The Senegalese goalkeeper didn't play against Bournemouth and didn't even get off the bench against Forest. He had previously returned from international duty in October with an injury but continued to play for his club despite Kepa Arrizabalaga taking over as the No. 1 goalkeeper.

Potter's words: "He has been exercising a bit more than before. He's not quite fit yet, but he should improve over the course of the upcoming week or two."

Accident: Shoulder

Date of anticipated return: Unknown

Charles James

James has experienced a setback in his recovery from the injury that prevented the defender from playing in the World Cup in Qatar, pulling up against the Cherries. With the caption "On the mend," James tweeted a photo of himself and N'Golo Kante healing. This lifted Chelsea supporters' spirits in the new year.

Potter's words: "We are worried since it is the same location. Really, it's too early to say. Over the following 24-48 hours, we'll have to wait and watch. He reported feeling something there; we'll have to investigate further and hope for the best."

Ailment: knee
Date of anticipated return: mid-February

Fofana, Wesley

Welsey Fofana, a former Leicester player, has been absent for the majority of the season, but his influence at the back has been noticeable nonetheless. Although Thiago Silva and Kalidou Koulibaly have played well, the Frenchman is eager to play again soon.

Wesley had a minor setback, which can occasionally occur at the very end of rehabilitation, so he will be out for a few of weeks, according to Potter.

Ailment: knee

Return is anticipated in early January.

Kante, N'Golo

2018 winners France stumbled at the last hurdle after also missing the World Cup, and some have suggested that N'Golo Kante's impact in midfield may have been missed.

He'll be [the] end of February [or] the beginning of March, Potter said. Since it's surgery, at least four months are required. My main goal is to aid in his swift return to fitness.

Damage: Thigh
Date of anticipated return: mid-February

Chilwell, Ben

Ben Chilwell, a fellow defender who has once again missed significant portions of the Blues' season, will be eager to get well and boost Chelsea's prospects of finishing in the top four this year.

Ben has returned from his solitary work in Dubai, and Potter stated that he is now collaborating more closely with the lads but has not yet begun team training.
Damage: Thigh
Date of anticipated return: February
Theodore Loftus-Cheek

The versatility that Loftus-Cheek undoubtedly gives to this Chelsea team will be missed by Potter, who has been used in a variety of places thus far this season.

What Potter said: "We're hopeful that Ruben can be engaged next week, but we'll see how he goes. He's doing some training in the gym."

Ailment: calf
Return is anticipated in early January.

Andres Broja

Armando Broja could be heard writhing in pain after pulling up badly in the team's mid-season friendly match against Aston Villa. His 22/23 season was more than definitely cut short by his knee injury. It was a terrible setback for the former Southampton loanee who had quite the impact under Potter.

It was just an unfortunate deed, Potter remarked. He was ensnared by the ground and their player. Currently, it doesn't appear promising, but it's too early to tell. Crossing fingers, although it's a strange one.

Ailment: knee
Date of anticipated return: late 2023

Why M3gan is already a budding camp horror icon

How we were forced to stan because of a stunning murder doll.

I'm a scaredy cat when it comes to scary movies. While I was watching The Strangers, I frequently checked the locks on my front door. In terms of camping, an activity I was previously dubious about, The Blair Witch Project was really just the final straw. Absolutely not a poltergeist. Things like that disregard boundaries.

Imagine my surprise, then, when I discovered that I was completely infatuated with the Blumhouse-James Wan film M3gan, which is about a beautiful doll who murders people. I've been dying to see this gorgeous mean-girl robotic cheerleader kill things, cause mayhem, and torture Allison Williams ever since the first trailer was released in October. And even though I love Chicago and am attracted to stunning women who can dance and kill (I love Chicago! ), I wasn't sure why I so strongly needed to see this movie.

Also, I wasn't by myself. There were videos of M3gan dancing all over the internet, and there were assertions that M3gan was after the crowns of Chucky and Annabelle, two other murder dolls, from people who hadn't even seen the film. A large portion of that support came from gay folks who had previously hailed M3gan as a queer symbol, just like we had done with Ma's Ma, the mother in Barbarian, the Babadook, Pearl from X, or Ghostface from Scream.

I chatted with Joe Vallese, an NYU professor and the editor of It Came From the Closet, a collection of critical essays examining the relationship between queerness and horror films, to better understand the obsession. We discussed M3gan's place in the long tradition of killer dollies on film, why LGBTQ people love the genre (hint: because it subverts actual life), and how horror can provide gay people with an escape that they would not find otherwise.

As an openly gay man, I don't entirely understand it, but I feel that this movie has activated some sort of synapses in gay brains. In the same way that we [gay people] must watch this movie with this murder doll. I simply want to know if you're experiencing the same thing because I worry that I might be hallucinating things since I'm in this homosexual bubble.

I believe that as soon as I saw the trailer and the dance, I knew exactly what was going to happen. I mean, it seemed quite obvious to me that it would instantly become some type of queer iconography.

She was destined to become a meme, regardless of the narrative content of the movie. She will, for example, dance on TikTok. For a trailer and dance to spark the kind of craze they have, there are several conditions that must be met.

Since being gay and queer are essentially acts of reclaiming and recontextualizing, it feels like we are providing context and significance to the image before we even know what it is. This is something gay and queer men of our generation have always done.

Is that one of the factors contributing to M3gan's appeal to queer people in general and gay guys in particular?

I believe it stems from what we are told is not right for us. Growing up, being feminine and engaging in girly activities certainly meant being a queer man. With dolls, that is unquestionably absolutely true. It is so understandable why gay or queer males would be drawn to this stunning killer doll who resembles Amanda Seyfried.

When we were children, we were told that you can't play with the Barbie but you can have the GI Joe. Hopefully, Gen Z is witnessing less of this occur inside their households. For instance, if the doll is harmful, you can play with it, but not if it is beautiful.

Some gay men might be responding to a subversion when they see anything like that because M3gan is both gorgeous and evil. This particular lens is being used to tell the tale of the doll. I'm not sure if the quality of the film will have much of an impact on how people will react.

Without a doubt, I sneaked into my sister's room and "borrowed" her Barbies. I had the impression that what I was doing was wrong. I suppose it's bad to sneak into someone's room. However, the notion that "playing with lovely dolls = evil" comes from what guys are "supposed" to enjoy and how they should act.

So … I suppose there's something cunning and alluring about a killer doll chopping people in half with a huge paper cutter blade.

The M3gan doll can also be seen in the teaser dropping to all fours and running toward someone like an animal. There isn't any subtext, in my opinion. I believe it is only text. It makes for a clear contrast.

I will admit that without Chucky walking, I don't believe M3gan could have crawled or run. Chucky is unquestionably a perversion of [the toy] My Buddy, mostly due to their similarity. My Buddy was a little male doll that boys could own because he wasn't very feminine. He wore overalls and was called Buddy. Then there is the Chucky doll, who, as you may know, is taken over by a nasty, foul-mouthed serial killer.

Additionally, Chucky's inventor is a gay man. I'm not sure whether you've seen the TV show...

I didn't! I have heard, though, that it is queer, that Jennifer Tilly is in it, and that Chucky is the father of a nonbinary child.

The primary character is, of course, gay. It makes sense that the sitcom is extremely queer because that is the only course it could have taken when Tiffany [voiced by Tilly], Chucky's bride, was introduced. They really leaned into this and have an androgynous child. They've basically gone down the route of having a queer killer doll family, which, you know, perhaps takes some of the spookiness out of the original.

I believe that when it comes to "taking out the spook," If you take a look at recent horror films like Barbarian, Malignant, Ma, Annabelle, and even The Babadook, you'll see that they have been branded as queer films and the monsters in them as queer symbols. And it becomes less frightening and perhaps even more delightful when these villains become LGBTQ icons.

The fact that LGBT people have a long history of being demonised and then gravitating toward these "monsters" is not, in my opinion, a coincidence.

Well, the final girl and the bad guy are the only character cliches that remain in horror films. The last female has been encased in a form of heteronormativity for such a long time, am I correct? She is quite modest, straight, cis, and wholesome. The antagonist is typically the exact opposite. Many of us assume that we can't be Nancy since we are Freddie when we see that. Since we can't be Laurie, we must be Michael. Being a Pinhead or a Cenobite could be challenging for a person.

We're moving over it now, but in a way, I believe the final girl/villain binary defined the role LGBT people were left with. The bad guys are also plain more interesting. You know, like, there wouldn't be franchises, several movies, all these efforts at backstories and reboots if villains weren't compelling. like as the Scream movies!

The Scream films do their best to challenge those dichotomies. I believe that the first movie features folks discussing how it is sexist to presume that the murderer is a man. If you read online discussion, you might think it's a joke when people claim that the murderer Ghostface is fundamentally gay.

Even if there is a person hiding behind that mask when it comes to Ghostface, they are always dressed in this incredibly voluminous, flowing robe. Ghostface is just gliding around and dancing, albeit they can be awkward. It's really, what do you call it?

Flamboyant?

Yeah. It is quite flashy. Although we don't give it much thought, it exists. Then, whoever is wearing it always appears to be enormous in the outfit. Like the Emma Roberts surprise in Scream 4 — it's hilarious because, in reality, she's probably a 5-foot killer, but it doesn't matter since whatever is hiding under the robe will always be enormous, terrifying, and gorgeous.

The whole point of Scream, though, is that anyone may be down there. That is inclusive and somewhat strange in its own peculiar manner.

And of course, in the first movie, the murders are these two fumbling, possibly gay for each other males.

No, like males that are exclusively gay for one another.

Wes Craven recognised that there was something queer and subversive about what horror did because he was a homosexual man and because, in my opinion, he was a really astute, inclusive person. This is because he developed the horror film Scream.

Regarding the notion that anyone can play the role of Ghostface, I believe that much of the enjoyment we derive from watching those films comes from our simultaneous consideration of our escape plans and our hypothetical actions as Ghostface. How would I approach my target?

What would my calls from Ghostface sound like? Am I going to be as sour as Ghostface?

Regarding the type of triangulation that we frequently discuss, I have a question for you. As if there were a link between camp, queerness, and terror. And a queer sensibility, in my opinion, is the dividing line between what makes horror horrifying or campy. I was wondering if you shared my thoughts.

In my opinion, horror requires you to surprise and violate expectations more than any other genre.

When horror veers towards camp, I believe it's frequently an honest attempt to shock viewers and provide them with a unique picture, which is really challenging to pull off. You see, I indicated at the outset that reclamation and recontextualization play a role in gay culture. But I also believe that there is a component of presenting us something we haven't seen. I believe that's a big reason why the border is so shaky and why it doesn't always work.

But more than any other genre, horror, in my opinion, has the capacity to be both extremely good and extremely horrible before looping back into the former.

Well, I mean, towards the conclusion of Barbarian, everyone is vehemently invested and rooting for the 8-foot underground woman to survive, which is definitely not what we had in mind when the film first started.

You know, the eight-foot woman that lives underground didn't ask to be what she is. She didn't ask to be born into this dysfunctional, incestuous life, is that right? It crumbles if you push too hard since none of it actually makes sense. But from a birds-eye perspective, that woman shouldn't have to die because she didn't ask for this life.

I believe that horror movie escapism may be liberating. If you're not queer, you might not understand what makes a monster or a villain thrilling, and it's possible that this is one of the things that isn't even entirely explicable. But because LGBT people have spent so much time trying to defend themselves, I believe this is one instance in which we don't need to.

You must admit that liking our little M3gan murder doll is not all that dissimilar from this. She didn't choose to enter this planet at birth. She didn't request to live this life.

When you see your M3gan murder doll, I'll be really interested to know if you do love it. Like, I worry if it's all just a big charade and if the movie will be terrible and completely forgettable.

But even if it does stink when I'm talking to you, it nearly doesn't matter. We will continue to interpret M3gan in our own ways, and whether ironically or not, we will continue to adore this piece.

She will still have said something noteworthy, for sure! There isn't enough doll horror out there, and I'm all for unusual and stranger entry into the horror genre.
