"Safe." I sort of dislike that word. Because really, the definition of safe and safety has soooooo dang much wiggle room both in the actual definition and in its interpretation.
The safety of using a specific product depends on so many factors including the actual person using it. So really, defining something as safe is, in my opinion, a bit arbitrary and a bit reckless. What I might be able to use without horrid repercussions might not be the best product for you.
See where I am going here?
Yeah – that's right. I'm not answering the question "is coconut oil safe for babies and children?" Not directly anyway.
There is no way that I can say with 100% certainty if it is safe to give coconut oil to your baby or young child either internally or by applying it externally. But what I will share, is that typically, infants, babies and children of all ages really benefit from all the wonderful known benefits found in coconut oil.
Disclaimer time! I am not a licensed medical professional nor do I play one on this site so please do not take a single thing I write here to be bonafide medical advice. Whatever I share here is based on my personal experience, research, and possibly the experience of others. I am not making any medical claims. So take what I write and consult with your trusted practitioner before making any changes.
Is Coconut Oil Safe For Babies, Infants, and Children?
Can babies eat coconut oil? When someone asks me if it is "safe" to allow a baby to eat coconut oil off the spoon, my reply is "can your baby eat other foods off the spoon?" If the answer is yes, then most likely your baby can handle licking some coconut oil goodness off of a spoon. It has a very small choking hazard as it pretty much melts in your mouth. Although in cold climates when coconut oil is in a super solid-as-a-rock state, a mindful parent might want to offer it in very small amounts to lessen the risk of choking.
When I was a newly minted breastfeeding mother, I applied coconut oil liberally to my cracked nipples. My infant daughter, only a few days old, would obviously ingest some of the coconut oil that had not absorbed. She never had an issue and in fact, I credit all that early coconut oil with her oral health. Our dentist is really blown away by her teeth and gums (and trust me – it has NOTHING to do with my preconception or pregnancy diet. I wasn't eating a real food diet like I do now). Sure, she grew up on real food and stays away from all the things that typically cause tooth decay, but her oral health transcends that. It really does. But I digress…
Anyway – unless you have a true coconut allergy that runs in your family (there is a difference between allergy and die off that coconut oil can cause) then chances are slim that your baby is allergic to coconut oil. But always proceed with caution the first time your baby consumes coconut oil, whether that be a wee amount during breastfeeding or a heaping spoonful as a snack.
If you are stumped for ways to use coconut oil on your infant or young children, check out 20 Ways To Use Coconut Oil on Infants and Children. It covers all the basics and then some!
How long as Tiny been "on the coconut oil?" Well, like I mentioned before, she was getting small amounts from breastfeeding but since I was consuming it, she was also getting it in my breast milk.
However, when Tiny was a wee one of about a year, I got her hooked on coconut oil. For her, grabbing a jar of coconut oil and eating it like ice cream was better than, well, eating ice cream out of the carton! Her brand of choice was Barlean's and whenever she would see it in the store, she would hound me to make sure we had plenty at home! While she loves coconut oil in general, running out of the Barlean's brand would send her into a funk. Seriously.
I remember the first time she tried Barlean's brand of coconut oil. She was 2 ½ years old and they had sent me some jars to try and then review on this here blog! After Tiny took her first taste, she grab the other jars and hid them in the office "just in case" which was her way of declaring them HERS. Funny stuff. She was hooked on Barlean's ever since.
Ok – off topic, sort of. I just had to share that story.
Anyway, the brand of coconut oil you give your infant or baby is less important than making sure you are only using unrefined coconut oil. This is also known as Virgin coconut oil. Unrefined coconut oil is in its purest form, free of any adulteration. It offers premium supportive health benefits which of course is what you want for your child right? And just because Tiny loves Barlean's coconut oil, doesn't mean that other brands do not taste wonderful. There are several brands I use and love but they all have little nuances in the flavor. You might have to try a few out to find the one your child obsesses over. 😉
So in a nutshell, coconut oil is considered to be extremely beneficial for people of all ages, infants and children included. Use common sense and keep an eye out for any physical reactions or behavioral changes. Typically, coconut oil will only do wonders for your wee ones!
When did you first give coconut oil to your children? What was his or her reaction?

You've probably heard about all the benefits of apple cider vinegar in the beauty department - it can be used as a toner, a deodorant, and even a conditioning hair rinse. But did you know ACV can be used as a cleaning product? If you've been thinking of going non-toxic, replacing your current cleaners with apple cider vinegar is the affordable, easy way to do just that. Here are some of the household items you can replace and how to do so!
1. Fabric Softener
ACV is a great way to condition your laundry if you have sensitive skin. Just add 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar in place of your fabric softener and stop all the itching caused by harsh chemicals.
2. Household Cleaner
Apple cider vinegar has a great deal of antibacterial properties so it works extremely well as an every day household cleaner. Mix equal parts water and ACV in a spray bottle and you're ready to clean! While the vinegar smell will fade, you can add a few drops of citrus essential oil to leave a great smell once it dries.
3. Drain Cleaner
Instead of buying drain cleaner filled with dangerous chemicals, use safe items you probably already have! Mix 1/2 cup of salt and 1/2 cup of baking soda and pour that down your clogged drain. Then, pour 1/2 cup of apple cider vinegar. Let the products react for 1-2 hours and then rinse with warm water.
4. Window Cleaner
Using the same combination as the everyday household cleaner, mixing equal parts apple cider vinegar and water to create a smear-free window spray.
5. Stainless Steel Cleaner
Your typical stainless steel cleaner can get pricey. Instead, use apple cider vinegar straight out of the bottle to clean your stainless steel.
6. Sticker Remover
Sticker removal can be a giant pain. Soak the area where the sticker won't budge with apple cider vinegar for about 20 minutes, and then scrape it off!
7. Weed Killer
We've all read the warning labels on weed killer found at local hardware stores, so it isn't a surprise that we can be hesitant when it comes to using those products in the yard where our children or pets spend a great deal of time. Avoid those harsh chemicals and create an alternative, effective weed killer. Mix 1/2 gallon of ACV, 1/4 cup of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of dish soap in a large spray bottle. Be sure to spray on each set of weeds individually and avoid spraying any plants you want to keep.
8. Mildew Remover
If you're trying to get rid of mildew in your bathroom, use apple cider vinegar! For heavy mildew, use ACV on its own. For lighter stains, use equal parts ACV and water. You can add essential oils to this mix as well for a scent booster.

Samsung unveils new vision
At this year's IFA conference in Berlin, Samsung showcased its European vision by demonstrating its latest Smart TV technology, home appliances and printers.
'"One of the secrets of our success is that we go to great lengths to understand how people use technology. These insights inform everything we create. That's how we come up with products and services that make life at home just so much more comfortable and happier,'" said Boo-Keun Yoon, President and CEO of Samsung Electronics.
'"Samsung is driven by three guiding principles,'" he added, '"people, innovation and society. During the past year, Samsung opened five Lifestyle Research Labs around the world that work to spot what customers need and want. These Labs are part of a research network that includes a further 33 R&D locations and six design centers. In all, over a quarter of Samsung's workforce is dedicated to product innovation.'"
Samsung has deep roots in Europe and plays a very active role in the region, working to train and inspire the next generation of technology leaders. In the Netherlands, Samsung trains teachers how to integrate technology in the digital classroom while in Poland, students are taught computer programming skills. These initiatives extend to France and the UK where Samsung works to support disadvantaged children. These are just a few examples of Samsung's drive to advance digital knowledge and help tackle youth unemployment.
Home Entertainment reaches new levels
Samsung has led the European TV market for the past nine years, achieved by pioneering LED and Plasma technology able to display the brightest colors, deepest blacks and sharpest pictures. Now, Samsung is driving a new era of TV innovation with bold approaches to Ultra High-Definition (UHD) and OLED technology designed to deliver the ultimate lean-back experience.
Last year, Samsung sold two TVs every second around the world, and in Europe the company has a 41% market share. To cement its leadership in Europe, Samsung surveyed over 18,000 Europeans in 18 countries to understand what they wanted from TV. The results show that extraordinary picture quality, bigger screens and a simpler, more intuitive user-experience are front-of-mind with consumers.
UHD F9000 Series TV
The Samsung UHD F9000 delivers on all three consumer desires with an unparalleled viewing experience born of pure innovation. With over eight million pixels and a resolution four times higher than Full HD, the UHD F9000 is a revolution in resolution as the most intricate of visual details are defined, clear and breathtakingly lifelike.
The unrivalled LED panel produces crisp detail, optimal color and contrast all complemented by Quadmatic Picture Engine, the powerful picture processing technology. No matter the source of the content SD, HD or Full HD the Quadmatic Picture Engine adapts the source image, eliminates visual noise, improves the detail and sharpness of the image before finally up-scaling the picture to be displayed in stunning UHD.
In addition to shaper images, the F9000 and all of Samsung's UHD TVs offer unrivaled brightness, superior contrast with the deepest blacks, and real UHD resolution using proprietary algorithms for superior images.
Designed to be a showpiece in the living room, the UHD F9000 incorporates a minimalist design with a narrow bezel, metal stand and metallic finish. The design deftly hides the built-in speakers and subwoofers for a powerful 70W sound experience and the One Connect Box removes cable clutters by aggregating all connectors from multimedia players. The innovative craftsmanship continues on the inside as the TV has ability to upgrade its software features over time to offer more services including future UHD standards through its inbuilt Evolution Kit.
The Samsung Smart Hub, a simple and intuitive five-panel layout that turns the start screen of the TV into an entertainment and social hub, has evolved to meet another customer insight Samsung discovered: live TV is no longer at the center of the television experience. S Recommendation suggests shows and films to watch dependent on the user's tastes and watch history. Coupled with a Twin Tuner, built-in camera, video chat capability and one-button content sharing with mobile devices, the F9000 delivers a true state of the art viewing experience.
Home Appliances for a Happier home
Samsung Digital Appliances' vision is to deliver a home-life well-lived, built on the foundation of deep local market insight, listening to want consumers want and true design excellence. Samsung knows its customers have many passions from fantastic food and great cooking to dazzling interior design. Every digital appliance created speaks to these passions, helping to create a happier home.
In 2013, Samsung's home appliance business grew by 14 percent, making it one of the fastest growing brands globally. In Europe, Samsung ranked number one in terms of market share for four consecutive years for refrigerators and microwave ovens and is on course to be number one in home appliances by 2015.
To reach this goal, Samsung is focusing on leveraging deep local insight, harnessing consumer passions and delivering design innovation. At IFA 2013, Samsung launched a range of initiatives and products tailored to enhance people's lives at home.
Club des Chefs
Samsung has partnered with award-winning chefs to develop the future of home cooking. The newly created ''Samsung Club des Chefs' includes Eric Trochon of Semilla in Paris: Michel Troisgros of Maison Troisgros in Roanne, France: Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli of Frankie Sputino in New York: and Christopher Kostow of The Meadowhead in Napa Valley, California. This elite group of professional chefs will suggest ways for people to discover new cooking techniques in their kitchens and provide invaluable expertise in the creation of future Samsung products.
Samsung Motion Sync Vacuum Cleaner
Building on consumer insights, Samsung developed the Motion Sync Vacuum Cleaner SC20F70 prioritizing design and easy-of-use. A revolutionary Motion Sync Design makes it one of the most agile canister vacuums on the market, reducing the amount of movement needed by the user while innovative CycloneForce Multi technology maintains powerful suction for maximum performance. Coupled with controls on the handle, sensors that detect areas to be cleaned and a bagless design, the Motion Sync Vacuum Cleaner combines exceptional performance with superior maneuverability.
Food Showcase FS9000 Refrigerator
Samsung conducted research into how families organize the food in their refrigerators and found that often there is little structure to the placement of items. The Food Showcase side-by-side refrigerator separates the interior into ShowCase and InnerCase sections. These sections give easy access to everyday items as well as those used less frequently, thereby delivering greater convenience for every member of the family on a daily basis.
The understated design conveys a sense of purity with a clean material finish. With a volume of 834 liters, the Food Showcase incorporates Space Max Technology that allows the walls to be thinner and insulate better in comparison to standard refrigerators. Food ShowCase will be available to European consumers from early 2014.
Printing Innovation for Home and Business Users
Samsung is developing its printing portfolio through a focus on mobility, the user-experience and design with an aim to become the number one A4 laser and Multifunction Printer (MFP) manufacturer by 2017. Advances in mobility, security and the dramatic growth of digital content are driving the need for modern devices that let users personally manage their work and home printing environments.
Samsung has been developing mobile focused printing applications since 2009 including a dedicated Mobile Print app, Wi-Fi Direct support, and a Native photo printing button and recently added Google Cloud Print and NFC functionality.
Changing the way people print in today's mobile era
In Berlin, Samsung showcased the world's first NFC multifunction printer, the Xpress C460. Evolved from the consumer desire for greater communication, collaboration and connectivity, users can now print photos and documents directly from smartphones with just a simple tap. Scanning and faxing documents is also made easy as users are able to sync the contacts on their smartphones with the printer.
Simplifying the user experience is central to how Samsung develops its products and the company recognized that the process of setting up wireless printers often involved multiple stages. With the Xpress C460 installation is three quick steps without even the need for a USB connection between the printer and computer.

Darts is a form of throwing sport in which small missiles are thrown at a circular dartboard fixed to a wall.[2] Though various boards and rules have been used in the past, the term "darts" usually now refers to a standardised game involving a specific board design and set of rules. As well as being a professional competitive sport, darts is a traditional pub game, commonly played in Britain and Ireland, across the Commonwealth, the Netherlands, Germany, the Scandinavian countries, the United States, and elsewhere.
Darts were historically used in warfare in ancient history; skirmishers used darts of varying sizes, similar to miniature javelins. It was the practice of this skill that developed into a game of skill. Before the First World War, pubs in the United Kingdom had dartboards made from solid blocks of wood, usually elm. They had to be soaked overnight to heal the holes made by the darts, and it was a messy business for the publican, although darts was a popular game. This changed when a company called Nodor, whose primary business was making modelling clay (which has no odour, hence the name Nodor), started producing clay dartboards in 1923. The clay dartboards never caught on, and Nodor switched to making the traditional elm dartboards that were popular at the time. Their model of dartboard was not a great success until someone came up with the idea of using the century plant to make a dartboard. Small bundles of sisal fibres of the same length were bundled together. The bundles were then compressed into a disk and bound with a metal ring. It was an instant success, as the darts did little or no damage to the board—they just parted the fibres when they entered the board; this type of board was more durable and required little maintenance.
Quality dartboards are made of sisal fibres; less expensive boards are sometimes made of cork or coiled paper. However, several types of sisal fibre are used in dartboards today, originating from East Africa, Brazil, or China. Despite widespread belief that some dartboards are constructed using pig bristles, camel hair, or horse hair, there is no evidence that boards have ever been produced commercially from these materials.
A regulation board is ?17 3?4 inches (451 mm) in diameter and is divided into 20 radial sections. Each section is separated with metal wire or a thin band of sheet metal. The best dartboards have the thinnest wire, so that the darts have less chance of hitting a wire and bouncing out. The numbers indicating the various scoring sections of the board are also normally made of wire, especially on tournament-quality boards. The wire ring on which the numbers are welded can be turned to facilitate even wear of the board. Boards of lesser quality often have the numbers printed directly on the board.
Recently, some companies have produced electronic dartboards. These dartboards have electronic scoring computers that are preprogrammed with a wide variety of game types. The board is made of plastic facings with small holes. The holes slant out, allowing the plastic-tipped darts to stick inside. When a dart strikes the board, the section makes contact with a metal plate, telling the computer where the player has thrown.
Illumination should be arranged to brightly illuminate the dartboard and minimize shadows of thrown darts. The main supply for the illumination should be protected against accidental piercing, or placed away from the board.

Check the western Canadapromoter Boodang's Facebook page and one phrase stands out: "In Boodang WeTrust." A search for the hashtags #INBOODANGWETRUST and #ILOVEBOODANG brings upposts from thousands of satisfied customers.
Since arriving on theCanadian dance music scene in early 1999, Boodang has built a loyal following,and we're not using the term loyal lightly. Boodang event attendees are almostalways return customers—many fans have been attending any and all Boodang-sponsoredevents for years. Boodang events sell, sell fast, and sell out—even in sparselypopulated areas of Canada. When the promoter organizes a show, fans arrive indroves. So how did a small group of Canadian musicphiles, who got their startorganizing underground dance parties, turn their passion into one of the mostsuccessful event production companies in the country?
Hard work is the firstand most obvious answer: fourteen-plus years of hard work. But beyond that,Boodang also embraced its community and held on tight. In early 2001, thepromoter gave up underground parties for something more lasting—Boodang workedwith the city of Edmonton to throw the first dance music event supported by anew city bylaw. By working with, rather than against, Edmonton's officials andpolicies, the promoters secured a lasting place in the city as a belovedcommunity enterprise.
Boodang has continuedworking with, and investing in, its community over the years. In 2007, Boodangbecame the first promoter to throw an event at Alberta's Shaw Conference Center(owned by the city of Edmonton). There, Tiesto strolled onstage to face asold-out crowd of 5,100 people. Three years later, Tiesto played to 7,900 atthe newly renovated Northlands Expo Centre—a show that Boodang sold out in fourdays. The walls reverberated with cheers. The rest, as they say, is history.
Boodang believes inbuilding unique brands and experiences at its events. Stellar lineups are agiven, but the company's main focus is building its event brands to sustain amuch longer-lasting future as DJ prices continue to soar. Boodang spares noexpense on production and décor, which has allowed the company to producerecord-breaking presales before artists and performers are released.
In 2012, Boodang producedthe most groundbreaking EDM festival in Western Canada—the Elements MusicFestival. EMF brought together more than twenty thousand music lovers over thecourse of two days at the Edmonton Expo Centre. Utilizing the entire buildingallowed Boodang to set up three different types of stages focusing on all thesub-genres of EDM. Elements Music Festival was nominated for an InternationalDance Music Award (IDMA) for best event in 2012. At the 2013 IDMA ceremony, EMFwas listed among such notable festivals as Coachella, EDC Las Vegas, ElectricZoo, Sensation White, Shambhala, Tomorrowland, and Ultra Music Festival.
Boodang's team-widepassion for dance music and attention to detail has made for a winningcombination. Its Canadian-based events compete with the best of American musicpromoters' lineups. Along with a stellar roster of Canadian-based DJs, the teamalso has a knack for convincing international artists and performers to makethe trip north when on tour to perform at its branded events or club nights. TheIDMA has placed the Boodang brand of Canadian events among the best in theworld.

Vendors are NPCs who buy/sell items to/from players. Some vendors are capable of repairing items; typically these vendors will sell weapons and armor, or supplies for blacksmithing or engineering. Vendors representing a certain faction are known as quartermasters, and will only sell items to players who have achieved a certain reputation level. However, they will still buy items from players.
A vendor sells items for four times what they will buy them for; that is, if you bought an item for 20 silver, you could only resell it for 5 silver. Items which have no discernible purpose but to be sold to a vendor are called vendor trash. The act of selling something to an NPC is known as vendoring.
If you sell an item to a vendor by accident, it will appear for a short time on a second tab in the vendor window labeled "buyback." The most recent 12 items you have sold will appear there, including at the window for other merchants. You can retrieve an item from the vendor until you scroll it off the window or until you log out.
Vendoring is a term used for selling items to a vendor, as opposed to placing them on the auction house or saving them.

Sculling is one of the ways I hunt ducks. It's a spot a stalk system where the hunter is laying on his back in a low profile boat and attempts to sneak across the open water in order to get close enough to waterfowl to shoot them. The boat is powered by a single oar the hunter works in order to move the boat slowly from point A to point B. Below you will find an actual hunt trip of mine from 2013 told in story form. I hope you enjoy it.
Misty Morning Scull
Being retired often means getting to do pretty much what you want to do. One of the drawbacks is that usually, in order to achieve that goal you have to get older. For some that means forever waking up long before the rooster crows and not being able to get back to sleep. Such was the case every day for the old decoy carver. No matter, really: he had always been much better at getting up early than he was at staying up late. When 4:30 am rolled around he knew there was no sense tossing and turning in bed. All he would accomplish by doing that was to become agitated, or worse, wake up his soundly sleeping wife. He decided to take the high road and quietly slipped out of bed and readied himself for the day.
Entering the kitchen he was pleased to see that there was still some of yesterday's coffee left in the pot. Thankful it hadn't been emptied, he poured himself a cup and placed it in the microwave. Sometimes modern technology wasn't so bad. When the bell rang, announcing the arrival of another cup of hot liquid, he removed it from the microwave, took a long sip and headed up to the shop. The first thing on today's agenda was to get some paint on a few decoys. He had decided last night that he would work for a few hours, and then load his scull boat in the truck and go to the lake to see if any ducks were available to hunt.
While he was painting the white chest and neck lines of pintail drakes, he'd periodically glance out the window and search for the light of the dawn. Shoot time this morning was at 6:08, but since it was overcast he knew it would be later than that before there would be enough available light to see much. Somewhere near the stroke of 7 the old carver decided it was time to stop painting and start loading the gear. After cleaning up and loading the boat and equipment into the truck, he went back downstairs, slipped into his bedroom and gently kissed his wife. As her eyes opened, he told her where he was going, said that he loved her, and went upon his way. Over 32 years of marriage this was a scene that had played out many times.
After fueling the truck he drove to the lake, anticipating a great day. Instead of heading up the freeway he decided that today he'd make the run through the country. It was a little slower, but it didn't really matter. Besides, there was more to see and enjoy by going the back route. Well, usually there was more to see. Today, however, the valley was encased in a blanket of fog, which made seeing much of anything rather difficult. "No matter," he thought to himself, "there's never any fog on the water, so I'll be able to see just fine when I get there." Nature had other plans, and when he arrived at the lake it too was covered in fog. "Oh well," he thought, "it is what it is."
After scouting as best he could, the old carver picked a launch point and got the boat in the water. After parking the truck he walked back down to the boat. It was a good boat: a Nellist...one of the biggest and roomiest scull boats there was. It was exceedingly stable, and he never worried about an unintentional swim. As he was putting on his grey facemask, he noticed a flock of ducks winging their way into the launch cove. Stopping what he was doing, he quickly pick up his binoculars and glassed the birds. It was a group of approximately 15 ringnecks, but there, buried in the middle, was a drake redhead. There was no mistaking that stubby red head, fat body and bluish bill. When the birds landed in the far back corner of the cove, he decided that the redhead would be his first target. Settling into the scull and set out in pursuit.
He decided the best approach would be at an angle from the far shore, so he sculled across the cove, then turned and started toward the birds. It was easy enough to pick out the redhead among the ringnecks, and he kept a slow, steady pace in that bird's direction. Closer and closer he crawled. 50 yards, 40.....20 yards: time to shoot. He mounted the gun to his shoulder as he sat up and killed the red head as it started off the water. For good measure he added one of the ringnecks to the bag.
After retrieving the two downed birds, he oared the boat over to the shore, turned the bow to the open water, and just sat for awhile. There had been birds in the cove when he arrived that had flown off, and there was always the possibility they would return. He figure the chances were good given the fact that a few other birds had filtered in during his scull. After a wait of about 10 minutes and green winged teal came darting into the back of the cove, and made the mistake of coming to near the waiting gun. He retrieved that bird, and sat awhile longer to see what would happen, but nothing else came in, so he decided to ply his trade elsewhere.
Staying to the north side of the long cove on the way out, the old carver would periodically raise the binoculars and check ahead. "Hmm," he thought, "there's some mudhens, and a bufflehead, and say...there's a couple of wigeon!" Since a new target had been acquired, he settled in and started a more serious scull. 75 yards. 50 yards. The mudhens were moving out and the wigeon started swimming down the shoreline. Rats! He knew he couldn't outrun birds that didn't want to be caught, but these birds didn't really seem alarmed. They appeared to merely be searching for a new feeding area, so he followed them. The wigeon swam around a rocky point and into another cove, so the old carver reached across his chest, grabbed the oar with his right hand and started oaring more forcefully in order to gain some ground while the birds could not see the movement of the boat. Just before the boat arrived at the rocky point, the old carver eased off, got back under the oar with his left hand, and started to finesse his way along the shore. As the nose of the scull crept aound the point, he could make out not two, but three wigeon on the far side of the cove feeding within inches of the shoreline. At this point the birds were more concerned with their stomach than anything else...a costly mistake as it turned out. 75 yards. 50 yards. 30 yards. 20 yards...time for the shot. The old carver sat up and fired three times...and 2 wigeon lay motionless on the water.
At this point it was time to beach the boat, take a short break and get a drink of water. It was also time to shed the long john top. The old carver knew that this time of the year was tricky. It could be 20 degrees in the morning, and 65 during the afternoon. Dressing in layers was the key in this situation.
Once he was rested and back in the water, the old carver eased the scull around the next point and began slowly glassing the area. In front of him were many mudhens with their heads bobbing and their white bills flashing in the sun. Odd birds he thought, to bad they aren't better eating. It wasn't long before he spied a small flock of ringnecks in the back of the cove behind the furthest muudhens. With his head against the transom, eyes barely peeking over the top of the forward cockpit, he ever so slowly inched the scull boat forward. As he came close to the seemingly never ending line of mudhens, they would slowly move away from the boat. He knew the real trick here was to go slow enough as to not startle the mudhens so they wouldn't fly and ruin the sneak. As the mudhens moved away the ringnecks started to take notice of the boat and they moved a bit. The carver adjusted the boat and moved to his left. The ringnecks turned and swam further into the cove. When the ducks moved right, the carver moved left. When they moved left, he moved right. It was a chess match the carver and the birds had played out many, many times over the years. It was impossible to tell who would win until the final move. 80 yards. 70 yards. The cove was beginning to tighten. 50 yards. The birds were nervous now. 40 yards. At this point they could stand it no longer and took flight. Unfortunately nature had designed them to fly along the water before they could gain any altitude. The old carver knew that if he didn't sit up too soon the ringencks might possibly fly right at him instead of veering to the side too soon. He was correct. At 20 yards he sat up and shot twice, and killed the last 2 ducks of the day's limit.
The old carver sat there in the boat for awhile before heading back to the launch, reflecting on the day, and his mind turned to the past. He went back to the times he was in the gunner position while his mentor John Hayden worked the oar, always explaining every move. He thought back on how John constantly taught him what to do, and what not to do...and why. Without those times, and all that John had given him, he knew that days like this would never be possible. He was truly thankful for that each and every time he got under the oar.
Smiling, the old carver pulled the sculling oar into the cockpit, put the kayak paddle together, got up on his knees and started the journey back to the ramp. He whistled a little tune, and kept time by the sound of the oars against the water. This was Paradise....something he would never take for granted.

We've been running our annual prizegiving for a mighty three years now, an opportunity to give a pleasant pat on the back to some of the finest achievements in the shedworking world over the last 12 months. It's been another busy year and so without further ado let's move towards the first gold envelope...
Best design – It's been another great year for shedlike designs. Most recently, the Forest Pond House (one of the designs up for an award on the AJ Small Projects award) caught our eye, but over the last 12 months we've marvelled at tents which looked like sheds, caravans which looked like sheds, floating sheds, rotating sheds, and naturally sheds like hobbitholes. In the end, the winner is as much about concept as design. Custom Built Surrey run by Mark Burton, does produce some nicely built shedworking atmospheres but what Mark is really trying to do is raise awareness of the importance and advantages of tiny house living. In the USA the movement towards living small is really snowballing. In the UK, there are some meagre signs of its emergence, but if it takes off then it will be in no small part due to Mark. Nice work.
Best blog/web site – 2012 was the year that Pinterest really
made its mark on the world of sheds with boards popping up all over the
interwebs celebrating garden offices and other small design wonders. But in the
main while these were a delight to browse, they largely involved simply
scrapbooking other people's work. So it's 'traditional' blogs which have won
the day this time round. In joint second place are two blogs which detail the
design and build of garden offices, http://buildgardenoffice.blogspot.co.uk
and http://buildingastudio.wordpress.com/.
Which means that in first place is http://shoeboxdwelling.com
run by design journalist Natalia Repolovsky. While not specifically targeting
shedworkers, many of Natalia's posts are perfect for those in garden offices
since they feature transformer furniture, desks, shelving and storage in
general, all in a succinct yet illuminating style.
Best Tweeter –
At its worst, Twitter is a platform for dullness and selfpromotion. At
its best, it provides an insight into another world. The @plankbridge feed from shepherds' hut specialists
Plankbridge was exactly this, always interesting, friendly without being
imposing, frequently using photos and video to mix things up, and above all,
genuinely reactive rather than simply using it as a broadcasting medium.
I'm framing up a Writers Hut, the smaller version that we do. It's going to be a craft studio for a customer twitter.com/Plankbridge/st…
— Plankbridge (@Plankbridge) December 22, 2012
Best popularisation of shedworking – A former Shed of the
Year winner, it was not the smoothest of years for Songs from the Shed run by Jon Earl. But despite the challenge of
financing arguably the UK's leading music venue, Jon and his impressive list of
invited musicians have brought us some tremendous sessions in 2012 (as regular readers
will know since we often highlight some of our favourites on Shedworking), and
in so doing underlining that shedworking comes not only in all shapes and sizes
but also sounds. Help to keep them going by donating to the cause on their
Readers' Award – This year's RHS Chelsea Garden Show had many
sheds – and in fact a shepherd's hut too - on display. Indeed there was a whole separate
area devoted to them. But this year's runaway favourite as nominated by you the
readers (in second place was the appealing George Clarke's Amazing Spaces
television series, closely followed by Jane Field Lewis's excellent book My
Cool Shed) was Jo Thompson's Silver Gilt-winning show garden which
featured a garden office-ish caravan, at least partly inspired by the Shedworking blog. It was a
lovely garden, a marvellous caravan, and Jo is a smashing lady.
Lifetime achievement award – Lloyd Alter is not a shedworker
(though he does have a marvellous outhouse) but this has not stopped him from
promoting this blog almost from the very beginning, as well as being a critical
friend of what we are attempting to do with it. Many of you will know Lloyd
from his work on Treehugger.com where he shares his deep knowledge of the world
of architecture and passion for a sustainable lifestyle with a large
readership. He writes well, he's generous, and he has a fine sense of humour.
He is, in short, a big hitter and it's a privilege to have him on our side.

About one-third of homes in the U.S. have some type of firearm. Access to firearms in the home raise the risk of unintentional firearm-related death and injury among children. Unintentional shootings cause a major portion of all firearm-related deaths among children ages 14 and younger.
Underestimating a child's ability to gain access to a firearm in the home and use it is a common problem. Even a 3-year-old child may have enough finger strength to pull the trigger of a handgun. Unlike adults, children can't tell the difference between a real gun and toy guns. Also, children are not able to make good judgments about how to safely handle a gun.
To keep your child safe from firearms, consider whether it is even worth the risk to keep a firearm in your home. If you choose to do so, safely store the firearm locked up, unloaded, and out of reach. Keep ammunition in a separate, locked place from the actual firearm. Also, talk with your child about the dangers of firearms. Teach your child to never touch or play with guns and to tell an adult if they find a gun.
Being aware of situations that can raise your child's risk for an unintentional firearm injury may help prevent one. High-risk situations include:
Accessible firearms in the home. Parents often underestimate their child's ability to gain access to the firearm in the house, or even the child's ability to pull the trigger.
Accessible firearms at another home. Even if your home does not have a firearm, your neighbor, friend, or relative may have an accessible firearm in the house.
Teen boys. Most children killed by accident with firearms are boys. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) considers homes with teen boys at a higher risk for accidental injury and death from firearms.
Ammunition and firearms stored together. When a firearm is locked away with ammunition, or left loaded, it greatly raises the risk of accidental injury and death from firearms. About one-third to one-half of all firearm owners keep their firearms loaded and ready for use at least some of the time.
Lack of supervision. Most accidental firearm shootings among children happen during times when children are not supervised, such as during the late afternoon, on weekends, and during summer months.
High-risk homes. According to the AAP, homes with a higher risk of accidental injury and death from firearms include those in which someone is abusing alcohol or illegal drugs.
The only sure way to keep your child safe from accidental injury and death from firearms in your home is to remove all firearms from the home. Yet, there are other ways to improve the safety of your child around firearms. These ways include:
Store the firearm correctly. Firearms should always be stored unloaded and uncocked in a locked container.
The gun should be stored separate from ammunition.
The firearm and ammunition should both be locked away, in a place known only to the parents, and out of reach of children.
For a revolver, put a padlock around the top strap of the weapon. This will prevent the cylinder from closing.
For a pistol, use a trigger lock. Never leave a gun unattended, even for a moment. This includes when you are cleaning it.
Educate your child. Teaching your child the dangers of guns may help prevent accidental injury and death from firearms. A parent should teach a child to do the following if they see a firearm:
Don't touch the firearm.
Leave the area.
Tell an adult right away.
Check with relatives, friends, and neighbors. Even if your own home is free of firearms, your child may visit another home where firearms are kept. Always check with neighbors, friends, and relatives to make sure they safely store their firearms, out of reach of children.
Use other safety devices. Safety devices, such as gun locks, lock boxes, and gun safes, should be used for every firearm in the house. Safety devices on firearms could prevent most accidental fatal shootings of children ages 5 and younger.

There is an increasingly urgent need to engage people in computing, not only to satisfy growing workforce demands, but also to empower people to create and control the devices we use in our day-to-day lives. In computing, broadening the participation of persons from underrepresented groups is a matter of equity. Globally, underrepresentation differs regionally and culturally by gender, race, ethnicity, socio-economic advantage, physical or mental impairment, and LGBT status.

A dental, also sometimes called a "prophy" or prophylaxis, is a cleaning and polishing of a dog's teeth. It is important to realize that dental disease does not reach a particular level and remain there. Dental disease continuously progresses. As dental disease progresses, the treatment becomes more involved, meaning longer and more elaborate (and more costly) dental procedures. This means that sooner is better than later when it comes to addressing your pet's dental disease with an appropriate treatment.
Diagnosis and Treatment Notes:
- Dental prophylaxis is generally suggested following a thorough history, oral examination. Prior to sedation, bloodwork may be recommended.
- Treatment depends on the severity of the disease, your individual pet, and your veterinarian. Pets undergoing dental prophylaxis may be treated with antibiotics prior to teeth cleaning. Sometimes, diseased teeth may need to be extracted during the procedure. Discuss treatment details when your pet is diagnosed with this condition.
What to Watch for*:
- Bad breath
- Difficultly chewing food
- Painful when chewing food or mouth is handled
- Excessive drooling
* Please notify us if you notice any of the above signs or if you have any questions!

September nights hold lots of wonderful treats for amateur astronomers to see with binoculars and telescopes. See some of our top September stargazing suggestions below:
A Planetary Bonanza in September - Early in the month, Venus shines bright in the western sky shortly after sunset. Important conjunction dates for Venus watchers are: September 8th, when the Moon will be close in the sky to both the bright star Spica and Venus; also on September 8th and 9th Venus and Saturn will be only about 3.5 degrees from each other.
Jupiter is rising sooner and sooner, dominating morning skies. On September 28, Jupiter and the Moon will appear close to each other in the sky.
Mars is also visible in the morning skies of September and will make a couple of really sweet pairings. On September 8th and 9th, Mars crosses in front of the Beehive Star Cluster in the constellation Cancer. On the 27th, Mars and Comet ISON make a close approach in space with Mars appearing just 2 degrees north of Comet ISON. You'll need a fairly large telescope to see Comet ISON this early in the year - it took an 11-inch telescope to photograph it in mid-August.
The Northern Milky Way - Early in the month, around 9 PM, the "Summer Triangle" of three bright stars (Vega, Deneb and Altair) is nearly overhead. In the northernmost portion of the Summer Triangle, you'll see the brightest portion of the northern Milky Way. Point a telescope there and you'll discover that the fuzzy outlines of the Milky Way will resolve into fields of glittering stars.
Planetary Nebulas in the Summer Triangle - Get a star chart and see how many of these you can find in September: the famous Ring Nebula (M57) in the constellation Lyra; the Dumbbell Nebula (M27) in Vulpecula; and the "Blinking Planetary," NGC 6826 in Cygnus. Not far outside the western boundary of the Summer Triangle is a small, but intensely colorful planetary nebula, NGC 6572. All these can be seen in a 6" or larger telescope. An Oxygen-III filter will help.
Neighbor Galaxy - In early September, lurking low in the northeast sky is another galaxy, separate from our Milky Way - the Great Andromeda Galaxy (M31). From a very dark, moonless sky, M31 is visible with the unaided eye as a slightly fuzzy spot. A pair of 7x50, 9x63 or larger binoculars will give you a much better view and telescopes will reveal some of the subtle dust lanes in the neighboring galaxy.
More Extra-Galactic Treats - If you haven't tracked down "The Whirlpool Galaxy," M51, just off the handle of the easily recognizable Big Dipper asterism, do it now while you still can! It will be too low for most to get a good view after September and you'll need to wait until late winter or next spring to catch a good view of this truly picturesque galaxy.
A Brilliant Open Star Cluster - Off the western end of the constellation Cassiopeia is the beautiful Open Star Cluster M52. You can find it with 50mm or larger binoculars from a dark sky site, but the view is definitely better in a telescope. With a larger scope, say 8" or larger, and with the aid of an Orion UltraBlock or Oxygen-III eyepiece filter, you may even be able to catch views of faint emission nebulas near M52.
Two More Brilliant Star Clusters - If you liked sparkling M52, you'll love the popular favorite "Double Cluster in Perseus." Lying between constellations Cassiopeia and Perseus is a bright, fuzzy spot in the Milky Way, and a binocular or telescope will reveal two, bright open star clusters close to one another. In early September the "Double Cluster" appears low in northeastern skies around 9 PM, but it becomes a real showpiece later in the evening as it climbs higher in the sky.
The Globular Star Clusters of September - Almost in a row, off the western side of the constellation Pegasus are three globular star clusters that line up almost north-south. These sparkling clusters are, starting with the most northern globular, M15 in Pegasus; M2 in Aquarius and M30 in Capricorn. From a dark sky site you can easily find all of them in binoculars!
The Challenging Veil - A challenge object for September is the Veil Nebula, a supernova remnant, in Cygnus which is almost overhead as soon as it gets dark. With a star chart, aim your telescope at the naked eye star 52 Cygni. One branch of the Veil crosses over this star and to the east are brighter segments of this roughly circular nebula. While the Veil can be seen in big binoculars by expert observers under very dark skies, you will likely need at least a 5" telescope and an Orion Oxygen-III eyepiece filter if you are near city lights.
All objects described above can easily be seen with the suggested equipment from a dark sky site, a viewing location some distance away from city lights where light pollution and when bright moonlight does not overpower the stars. All objects have been verified by actual observations by Orion Telescopes & Binoculars Staff at Fremont Peak State Park, and/or Deep Sky Ranch, 60 miles and 90 miles respectively from San Jose International Airport, San Jose, CA.

You will then be returned to a shell prompt with the following output, that's it!
a new user "firebird" is created on the target machine. With administrator access, set a password for this new user:
sudo passwd firebird
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
Now you can switch to the firebird user with the su command
If you try to stop the server from running with the init.d command an error message will appear.
sudo /etc/init.d/firebird2 stop
/etc/init.d/firebird2: 28: source: not found
Stopping Firebird server: Your user name and password are not
defined. Ask your database administrator to set up a Firebird
can not attach to server
The same will happen if you try and start the server.To stop the server use the following command
sudo su -c "fbmgr -shut -password SYSDBApassword" firebird
server shutdown completed
Where SYSDBApassword is the password you entered immediately after installation and the second password is the firebird user password. To start the server again
su -c "fbmgr -start" firebird
With the installation complete, you can now begin using Firebird on Ubuntu Linux. The base package does not include any example databases, so if you like, install some with
sudo apt-get install firebird2-examples
These will be installed in /usr/share/doc/firebird2-examples/. While you're at it, install the utilities package
sudo apt-get install firebird2-utils-super
This will give you an interactive shell, and backup and reporting tools among others. Now you can test your Firebird installation by connecting to an example database. Decompress the example "employee.fdb" database
gunzip /usr/share/doc/firebird2-examples/examples/employee.fdb.gz
Fire up the interactive shell.
At the SQL> prompt, connect to the database with:
SQL> connect "employee.fdb" user 'SYSDBA' password 'SYSDBApassword';
If you get an error message like "Statement failed, SQLCODE = -551 no permission for read-write access to database /usr/share/doc/firebird2-examples/examples/employee.fdb", then the server process doesn't have read or write access to the database file. Change the ownership of the database to the user firebird with
sudo chown firebird:firebird employee.fdb
When you manage to successfully connect to the database you will see the message:
Database: "employee.fdb", User: SYSDBA
Now, from the SQL> prompt, feel free to browse around the employee database:
SQL> show tables;
That' it this will complete the firebird database setup in Ubuntu

It seems like small knives get respect equivalent to their size, very little. Most people wouldn't look at a subcompact lightweight car and think "high-performance vehicle". That first estimation could change when it's revealed that clown car is disproportionately packing 350 horsepower and a high-speed racing package.
Another example of stature not accurately representing ability is a Spyderco Dragonfly. Its cutting ability is unequal to its diminutive package and innocuous name. It kicks off with premium components like VG-10 blade steel and a G-10 foliage green handle. The VG-10 is tooled into a full flat-grind 2-1/4" long blade with a spine cusp jutting out the top where the thumb naturally settles itself for control over the cutting edge. The G-10 handle is ergonomically blueprinted so when held and used the knife feels and performs like a larger tool. Even the positioning of the Spyderco Round Opening Hole in relation to the pivot is tweaked for smooth opening and hitting all the correct pressure points in the hand. Blade and handle geometry create a series of grip angles with a purposeful flat shelf at the base where the pinkie finger rides as a leverage point.
Wire clip carries right or left-handed tip-up or use it as a money clip.

NanoSight, One of the UK's Fastest Growing Biotechnology Companies, Wins a 2013 Queen's Award for Enterprise - Innovation
SALISBURY, England, April 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
NanoSight, leading manufacturers of unique nanoparticle characterization technology, are pleased to announce that the company has been selected to receive the Queen's Award for Enterprise - Innovation in 2013.
Following on from their 2012 Queen's Award for Enterprise for International Trade, NanoSight is pleased to announce further recognition for their market-leading nanoparticle characterization technology. NanoSight was founded in 2004 by Dr Bob Carr and John Knowles after Carr discovered a technology which allows particles, so small they were below the resolution limit of normal optical microscopes, to bevisualized, sized and counted in less than a minute for a fraction of the cost of an electron microscope.
Since 2005, NanoSight has grown sales by more than 60 per cent annually, year on year, and now employs 47 people worldwide. The firm sells its products all over the world, with around 90 per cent of its sales outside the UK. The most significant growth is in pharmaceuticals and life sciences, where budgets have remained largely unaffected by the global financial condition. There are now more than 600 NanoSight instruments in use worldwide and this number continues to grow as the firm's products are cited almost daily in fresh academic papers, a list which now totals well over 700.
Speaking about the importance of this award, Dr Carr said "Winning this award is further recognition of our Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) technique as an outstanding technology to meet the needs of the burgeoning nanomaterials sector. It is reward to our team at Salisbury who continue to innovate both hardware and software improvements to meet the challenging demands of our users."
Looking forward, the company sees sustained growth in the coming years. Their NTA technology has become increasingly important in the characterization of nanomaterials. With discussions continuing about a definition for nanomaterials in both Europe and the USA, it appears that many companies will be required to measure the number and size of the nano-scale particles in their products. Underscoring the importance of these activities, NanoSight CEO, Jeremy Warren, says "With NTA's ability to handle this challenge measuring particles in the 10nm to 1000nm range, NanoSight's future growth prospects are very positive."

What Is Tree Cabling?
Tree cabling (also known as bracing) is a specialized process that adds strength, durability, and damage resistance to a tree. By adding hardware, fasteners, and steel cables, cabling can provide much-needed support to weak areas of a tree, such as underneath heavy limbs.
A common cause for concern is what's called a "V crotch": where the trunk of the tree splits into two separate limbs to form a "V" shape. These are areas that are particularly susceptible to wind damage, so it's essential to secure it with adequate bracing.
The Advantages of Tree Cabling
Tree cabling has countless advantages and benefits. It can save you money on repairs. It can boost your curb appeal by improving a tree's appearance. It can do all that and more.

27 Years Ago: Tim McGraw's 'I Like It, I Love It' Hits No. 1
Twenty-seven years ago today, on Sept. 16, 1995, Tim McGraw shot straight to No. 1 with "I Like It, I Love it." The song was the debut single from his third studio album, All I Want, which was released three days after the song landed at the top of the charts (Sept. 19, 1995).
Written by Jeb Stuart Anderson, Steve Dukes and Mark Hall, the uptempo "I Like It, I Love It" -- with lines such as, "I like it, I love it, I want some more of it / I try so hard, I can't rise above it / Don't know what it is 'bout that little gal's lovin' / But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it" -- also became an unofficial sports anthem. It was often played during ABC's Monday Night Football broadcasts, and it is the goal celebration song for the NHL's Nashville Predators. Fortunately for McGraw, he didn't follow his initial reaction to the now-hit song.
"I didn't think much about recording it," he recalls to Huntsville radio station WDRM-FM. "I was kind of cold on it, and I listened to it again, and for some reason, it hit me a whole lot different the second time around. And then when we went in and cut the track, the track just turned out so fun and so cool that it really didn't matter how much I liked it anymore after we got to the track, because I loved it after that."
"I Like It, I Love It" stayed at the top of the charts for five weeks. It is included on McGraw's 2000 Greatest Hits album, his 2008 Greatest Hits: Limited Edition album and his 2010 Number One Hits album.
