Recycled Coin Wrapper Flowers
Ever since I started this blog, one of my besties tells me she finds it difficult to throw things away. She said she thinks to herself, "Dinah could make something out of this." So, when I saw her the other day she handed me a baggie of coin wrappers. "Here, make something out of this." So starts my first recycled craft challenge. After asking some Facebook friends on my page for inspiration, I decided to make recycled coin wrapper flowers. Here are the wrappers I used.
Now, let me just say that not all of my projects turn out quite like I picture them in my head (you are about to see my first published CRAFT FAIL!!). My original intention was to make wall art out of these coin wrappers for my friend, but it didn't turn out quite like I had planned. With that said, I think these flowers would be cute for ornaments, card making, or gift wrapping embellishments. Here is how I made these cute little recycled coin wrapper paper flowers.
- Coin wrappers
- Glue
- Scissors
- Rhinestones, buttons, or beads (for the center)
First, cut your wrapper into strips at the desired thickness as shown. I found that the thinner the flower, the more dainty and pretty it was.
Next, bend each strip to form flower petals.
Arrange the flower petals as you wish and glue them together.
Add a rhinestone embellishment. I tried painting the petals and found it tedious. I also liked that you could tell that they were coin wrappers, so I decided not to paint them.
Now for my CRAFT FAIL!!!!!
I bought canvas and tried to arrange my flowers in a cute pattern. The plain white canvas was really boring… (BTW, the plastic is still on the canvas in this picture)
…so I painted them… the colors were not quite right…
I attempted to make an arrangement anyway… BLAH!!! I wasn't satisfied and DEFINITELY not good enough to give to someone and expect them to hang them in their home!
SOOOOO, I tried to layer them, but still didn't like it. I think I'll just use them for gift wrapping or card making! Oh well! I tried!

Revenge of a Damsel Rami92
So she's never been able to pinpoint when it started but she likes to think it started at the beginning.
Meant To Be ..Maitree..
Well,Almost everyone. For Riddhima Gupta,these fantasies don't exist. Angels,Love or Fairy Tales. She is too busy for friends. Too busy for life. She is a workaholic, one who doesn't like to talk much, or doesn't have much friends. She has a small house where she lives alone, and a business of her own, and a mother who she has to take care of. She has a boyfriend- who (she thinks) she loves. Riddhima has spent all her life living for others..But she has lost out on life..on the many essential elements of life.
A wrong number-thats all it took. For Him to enter her life. For him to make her smile, to bring out the real Riddhima hidden deep inside, who still finds happiness in little things in life. For him to teach her to live, to overcome her fears....for her to fall in Love.
He was the one who made her...Believe.
Lost & Found ..Maitree.. & Trisha
The clock went on running with the time.All say that time and tide wait for none.But when time,stops at that one moment - or can we say,it stops every moment for me? Anyways,at that moment,your breathing stops,you feel dizzy..Your world is coming to an end.That one moment,which you dread with every breath you take,when you wish to be dead,it nearly makes you feel that your heart is wrenched out of you. I have seen this moment..Felt it-for three whole years now. The pain is unbearble,the void hammering against my chest,I wish I could turn back the time.I still wonder,do people who are lost always found? Will I find the person I love,I admire,I remember and most importantly,miss in my life?
"Hey",I hear Rahul's soft voice behind me,"You okay?"
Same question..No answer.I felt I could cry out any moment.Even after three years,this one question..It doesn't fail to bring back all the memories. I turn around to let out a fake smile. All fake things are a part of me now - fake smile,fake jokes,fake jokes,fake laughs,fake LIFE. I wish I wouldn't be living..Because even my life has no meaning.
"Did you find..? ",his voice trailed off gently and tears stung my eyes,all over again.
I whisper to myself,letting the tears flow down my cheeks," I wish I could..I only wish.."
The Right Choice Accio_kajen
We always wanted to know what happened afterwards in Armaan and Riddhima life.This will take us through their journey of post-marriage life-living together,raising kids together and knowing each other better which ultimately happened because they made "The Right choice".

Her vision on life is:
So simple "live your life whatever it may give you just get it and smile in return."
His vision on life is:
So simple " who are you to me?why should I listen to you?its MY LIFE just get out of my way"
This is the story of a girl who wants to be loved immensely by her family and a guy who never cares about anyone though he have family who loves him.The one thing both the people have in common is love for their sibling.They would go beyond the world to bring happiness for their Siblings
They expectedly and unexpectedly come together.It was a big twist in their life and yet they love the twist that had happened to them.

The Irani's lived in a small town near the outskirts of Madhya Pradesh. Madhura, Sanaya and their dad, a small loving family held onto what was left after having lost the most precious person in their lives, Mrs Irani. The girls were very young back then having little or no memory of their mother, Mr Irani being a loving father soon filled the void of his wife's absence. The girls grew up to be best friends and each other's confidant. Life was normal until two men Abhinav Shukla and Barun Sobti visited the town.
1983 : Chaos.Panic.Hiatus. It was all around the city, People were screaming, writhing in agony, tearing things apart. They burned, they cried for help. And then he rose; ordering Calm and Peace among his Slaves, as he branded them.
Some refused, some obeyed and some went into hiding. The Good and Bad now stood against each other and It was declared War.
2012 : Among the shadows he played, as the Slaves one by one perished. They Gathered and learned. They planned and plotted while he devised his cunning plan. He wanted revenge, he wanted power, he wanted to Rule. And so it was a war not declared, a threat not announced, danger kept secret. Such was the Second War between the Slaves and him.
Prithvi kautilya04
"Prithvi" is the tale of an incredibly intense love that demands nothing less than unconditional surrender. A potent love that pulsates with light and darkness, joy and anguish, hope and despair, strength and vulnerability in equal measure.
But it has to manoeuvre its way through a labyrinth of long-buried secrets, vicious enemies, shattered blood ties, and most painfully, untamed inner demons. Everlasting happiness may be within reach, or perhaps, very far away.
Never before has the path of love been so dangerous'.so mysterious'..so beautiful'
..and then there was another life -Grace-
Two friends have come together, their children find their other halves, bonds of a lifetime and some sibling teasing.

A tragic secret causes Raina to leave her family, her
life behind. Five years on, she's now the strong headed business woman
living with an adopted aunt. She's got everything you could wish for:
money, power, and fame but why is she still not happy? What happens when
a figure from her past enters the present and make her life worth
living again? What happens when she comes face to face with her demons -
will she ever win and get the life and love that she deserves?

He who is satisfied with what he has, is a rich man". -Nabil N. Jamal
The secret of contentment is knowing how to enjoy what you have, and to be able to lose all desire for things beyond your reach.
It is right to be contented with what we have, but never with what we are.

It appears centre Danny Briere will not take the ice with when the Philadelphia Flyers open their season and he may not be on the team's 23-game roster when it is announced on Friday.
According to CSN Philly, the Flyers will likely list Briere as "non-roster/injured" due to a hairline wrist fracture.
The move would allow the Flyers to open up a roster spot for Tommy Sestito, while Briere works his way back from the injury.
Briere may also miss Sunday's game against the Buffalo Sabres.

Posts Tagged 'Georgianna Boehnke'
Last Sunday, I had the honor of participating in a panel discussion with Beyond Worlds. We discussed boundaries in the tarot business. If you missed that show, you can listen to the archive here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/beyondworlds/2012/02/06/boundaries-for-readers–special-panel-discussion
Let me introduce you to the panelists who participated for this special show, along with links to where you can find this great group of fellow tarot professionals:
- Donnaleigh – our host of the Beyond Worlds Tarot Tribe
- Georgianna Boehnke from The Tarot Room
- Diane Wilkes from Tarot Passages
- Theresa Reed, also known as The Tarot Lady
- James Wells
- Marcy Currier
- And of course myself, Sharon Brown – who most of you know by my nickname, Velvet Angel, from Tarot Wisdom Readings
The show is packed with lots of ideas regarding boundaries, so if you are a tarot reader who finds yourself struggling with establishing – and enforcing – boundaries, this show is for you!
Currently, we are discussing the possibility of doing an addition to this show, as there was so much more we could have talked about, but simply didn't have time. But so much was fantastically covered in the 90-minute presentation. Everyone had something of value to contribute.
Today's article stems from an enlightening 2-card boundary spread, which you can find on Donnaleigh's blog at: http://www.donnaleigh.com/apps/blog/show/12170332-boundaries-for-tarot-readers-2-card-boundary-spread
I wanted to share with you what I drew from this boundary spread, and if you are a reader, I encourage you to do this reading for yourself and find out what Tarot has to say to you about your boundaries and how you can establish them most effectively.
Draw 2 cards from your favorite tarot deck and ask:
1) Define boundary as it pertains to me.
2) How can I best establish my own personal boundaries?
I used the Crystal Visions Tarot deck for this reading.
Card 1: Define boundary as it pertains to me.
As boundaries pertains to me, the Queen of Cups shows me that because I have always been such a generous person with a soft heart, I very much need to have boundaries in place so that I am not manipulated and taken advantage of. I easily feel sorry for people, and I easily feel their pain – sometimes as if it is my own pain. In the past, that made it too easy to just drop the boundaries and give in to freely offer my help – even at my own detriment!
But this Queen shows me that boundaries are also about love – for others and for myself. And sometimes "tough love" must be a part of it, just like when it comes to dealing with children. Boundaries can specify love for the self, and also self-respect. Boundaries help me to detach emotionally – just enough to be objective and stand my ground, but not in the way of detaching so much that I have no compassion.
The Queen of Cups is indeed filled with great love and compassion. But to love and respect yourself, you must uphold boundaries. The maturity of the Queen suggests that I can help others with a compassionate and gentle touch, but it doesn't mean that, in the process, I should avoid the responsibility of those boundaries for myself. For that would not be self-love.
I think it was very difficult for me to establish solid boundaries for the longest time. And it's only within the past 2 to 3 years that I have done so more firmly. With the Queen of Cups, I can see the emotional side and the reason why it was harder for me to be tougher when needed. But fortunately, I now see that the Tarot shows me that boundaries can still be a loving expression to promote respect and goodness between myself and others. Boundaries are not mean or stingy . . . they are about promoting love for others and the self.
Card 2: How can I best establish my own personal boundaries?
Interestingly, the 7 of Wands is a card of boundaries, and it clearly shows me that I must take a stand and be firm or assertive as needed. I will be called upon to continually defend those boundaries. In fact, I had to do so today yet again. But I found a way to lovingly suggest an alternative even though I would not honor an expired free gift certificate.
This is about handling myself in a responsible way – and not letting others walk on me as I did at one point in my career. I must defend these boundaries, because this is about standing up for what I value and not settling for less than I want and deserve. I must have the courage of my convictions and the integrity to follow through. I cannot be wishy-washy about it. I must be firm.
Thus, the 7 of Wands shows me that I must continually be "on my own side" and do what is best for me and my business. I can't just take a backseat when it comes to boundaries. I have to get in front of the firing line and be firm and strong – even when the Queen of Cups emotion wants me to do something else. I am responsible for taking control through boundaries and defending those, and the 7 of Wands tells me that this will ensure I don't let myself get pushed around.
Not only must I have boundaries, but I must enforce them. For it does little good to "have" a boundary if that is not enforced and followed through. With the Queen of Cups card and the 7 of Wands, the Tarot asks me, "Do you love yourself enough to take a stand when needed?" And my answer is, "Yes, I do!"
Velvet Angel
(a.k.a. Sharon)
P.S. Many thanks to Donnaleigh for sharing this spread!
How do boundaries play a role in your general life and in your career or business life? Feel free to share or discuss your thoughts on boundaries.

McCabe out for three months
Wallabies inside centre Pat McCabe will be sidelined for at least three months after scans revealed he has a fractured neck.
According to AAP, McCabe's place in the squad will be taken by Melbourne Rebels centre Mitch Inman, who is on his way to join the Wallabies for the remaining two games of the European tour, against Italy and Wales.
Inman's Rebels team-mate Cadeyrn Neville is also joining the squad as cover for injured lock Kane Douglas, who is expected to be ruled out of the tour with knee ligament damage.
McCabe suffered the injury in Australia's tour-opening 33-6 loss to France and was withdrawn from the Saturday's Test against England.
Ben Tapuai, who played at ouside centre against les Bleus, will now be the starting number 12 at Twickenham.

Mojama tuna fillet, dry-cured in sea salt, is a rare delicacy from Andalucía. A particularly nice way to enjoy mojama is to slice it very thinly and marinate the slices in olive oil for about an hour. Serve with freshly toasted almonds and a light fruity wine.
Spaniards living along the Costa de la Luz, from Cádiz to Portugal prefer mojama just as it is: thinly sliced on crusty bread, sprinkled with a fine extra virgin olive oil. They choose not to garnish the tuna with mayonnaise or ali oli sauce, because they feel the sauce competes with the delicate flavor of the tuna.
Along the coast of Murcia and Alicante in the Mediterranean, people prefer to have their mojama served in small pieces as a garnish for a green salad – in the fashion of bacon bits. A cooking tip: Enrich the flavor of your sopa de marisco, seafood bouillabaisse, or the broth for your seafood paella by adding shavings of mojama.
Mojama originated centuries ago along the southwest coast of Spain in Huelva, and Cádiz. The climate along that area of the Costa de la Luz tends to be breezy and dry -- perfect for preserving the abundance of blue fin tuna caught in the Mediterranean Sea.
To cure the tuna, the fishermen pack fresh fillets in sea salt, rinse them, and then hang them in the sun to dry. The constant light winds in the region are key to assuring that the fillets are thoroughly dry.

You can tell who is swimming naked when the tide goes out. CEOs who have chosen to make their HR department purely tactical are swimming naked and getting crushed right now – they have only blunt instruments at their disposal – hiring freeze, pay freeze, layoff. (Freezing is not a smart way to survive a threat). A purely tactical HR department does a competent and efficient job with compliance and legal issues, they serve employees and companies with increasingly efficient HR services…and by and large, are uninvolved with major business decisions.
John Sullivan ranted that he "can't think of another time where human resources as a profession appeared to be floundering to the point where it's embarrassing itself." Where was the workforce plan? He sagely makes the point that business is cyclical, why not plan for that? But when I think of the small and midsize employer market, I have a hard time placing the blame squarely on HR. There is also a lack of vision on the part of the CEO.
CEOs who have demanded (and invested in) strategic HR support are getting far better results. They get worthy advice on major decisions. They can use a scalpel to cut low impact items and wisely reallocate scarce resources to the things that matter – the things that have leverage – gaining a multiplier effect. They avoid the idiocy of across the board freezes and instead focus on smart ACTIONS that drive business results. They are avoiding the predictable problems that come from guiding people through change, so productivity soars, and results come faster.
For a brilliant distinction between tactical vs strategic HR, read John Sumser's post today "Five Things HR Can Do." It's brief, practical, clear and concrete. I won't summarize or explain it, you deserve to read the original. (If you are an HR pro, please follow his instructions, he's exactly right).
There has been quite a dustup over the latest round of HR bashing – "Why the CFO Can't Trust HR" – this is counterproductive. It's not about who is competent and who is not, or who should trust whom. It's this:
If you run an organization, and you must make a hard decision that involves people, do you have a strategic advisor for that? If you don't, you are a fool. Go get one.
In the small and midsize employer market, I think many CEOs simply don't realize that a significant part of their problems are really HR problems and a competent HR strategist could help them every bit as much as a competent CFO can help.

12 Ways To Rock Your Jingle This Christmas
We're talking mobile wallets, specifically, the free Isis Mobile Wallet app available from Verizon. I tried it, I love it, and I feel safe using it.
The Isis Mobile Wallet allows me to 'tap to pay' at a store checkout kiosk. There's no need to bring my handbag or take my credit card out of my wallet. For me, it brings a refreshing new way to shop.
I've always made personal safety a priority. I seldom carry my handbag while shopping during the holidays or when I travel regardless of the season. So now, instead of carrying my credit card in my pocket which is what I've done in the past, I only need to carry my phone that I always take with me anyway.
The Isis Mobile Wallet employs a tap and pay feature at a checkout with a NFC (Near Field Communication) kiosk. NFC is a technology that allows radio communication to transfer data between devices on contact or in close proximity of a few inches.
The Isis Mobile Wallet App is beautifully designed; its install seamless and included simple and concise tutorials.
Here's 12 Ways The Isis Mobile Wallet Will Rock Your Jingle This Christmas:
1. Safety, no need to carry your wallet or handbag
2. Secured by triple data encryption
3. Simple to use, pay quickly and efficiently
4. Earn 20% back on purchases*
5. Save money via deal alerts sent through the app
6. Less to carry, no handbag hanging on your shoulder
7. Payment choices, add multiple credit and debit cards
8. Extra money, get $10 bucks for signing up
9. Remote freeze, in case you lose your phone
10. Protective ID, special passcode protected SIM Card
11. Simplicity, add store membership cards instead of hanging them on your keychain
12. It's cool! Be one of the first to use a technology that's here to stay; become an early adopter
* Get up to a $200 credit when you tap to pay with an American Express Serve® Account in the Isis Mobile Wallet.

The animated adventures of a small, pencil-drawn man.
Rats on Cocaine
Possibly the most evil cartoon series on the planet.
Press Start
Oldschool gaming fanatics will love this series!
The building blaster is back in another physics-based blast fest! This time around life isn't so easy for our volatile friend as the buildings he has to take down are made up of different materials AND he needs to avoid taking out civilians. (Evil competitors on the other hand are fair game!) Also, he's got a few new tricks up his sleeve: C4, wrecking balls, acid balloons and air strikes just to name a few! Boom boom pow ... lets blast away!
Place bombs and tools to blast the buildings to clear the red zones. Use timing to your advantage and avoid civilians and try to get the enemy for bonus points. More instructions in the game.
dude im going to try finish the game
where they get the U.F.O ? in space ?? lol
Pretty playable
It was a little annoying how it got harder around three levels in. I still have to praise you for having good graphics and fairly fun gameplay. Blowing stuff up is always cool, and I am so glad you put in so many sticks of dynamite to blow it up. It was not anything fancy and I could remember the music as being in your other games. I would recommend it, as it does not really have any factors about it that are that negative. It was fairly playable even though I probably would need a walkthrough to finish all of it.
nice game
I gave it an 8/10 because after you get the antimatter bombs the game becomes repetetive and level 50 was no challenge It took me about 20 seconds to complete it using a strategy I used often
yoyoyo luvit
i always like this sorta blow shit up, collapse building typa game. and this is a good example.i like how in earlier levels u cant really breakanything but later levels and more explosive explosive matter give you more mega explosive explosions that really fuk shit up.
nice 10/10

Game two on Saturday night will feature Zack Greinke pitching for the Dodgers. The Cardinals have not announced their game two starter. With their aces pitching the first two games it's important the Dodgers jump out to a fast start in the short, five game series. With Hyun-Jin Ryu still returning from injury and not likely to start, the Dodgers will likely start Dan Haren in game three of the series in St. Louis on Monday night. The big question is whether or not skipper Don Mattingly will start Clayton Kershaw on three day's rest in game four in St. Louis. Mattingly's decision will likely hinge on how well the Dodgers do in the opening three games of the series. Kershaw started on three day's rest a year ago versus the Cardinals and didn't pitch well, giving up seven earned runs in just four innings pitched.
Barry's Ticket Office is located 3.7 Miles from Dodger Stadium

A "loved one" who comes over at 10pm, leaves at 7am... and doesn't bother you outside that time with things like dates, meeting their friends or chatty phone calls and texts.
Nah.. I don't have time for a boyfriend right now.. a 10-7 would be great though.
She's so dumb.. I couldn't date her for real.. but she does have 10-7 potential.

(one-oh-seven) Used to describe a miracle (from just unbelievable stuff to real miracles). It comes from the devine number 7. The one-oh in front of it is just used to make it easier to pronounce (unlike seven-seven-seven).

Vegan For $3.33 a Day is Back!!
The more things change, the more they stay the same. It's funny like that. I thought I was done with this blog, but life has other, more interesting plans.
I am no longer working full time as a chef. I am concentrating all of my energies on developing my Photography and Chef Business.
I am available for all types of photography, from food to weddings! You can check outmelodypolakow.com for more details.
Since I am creating my own business, I am on a strict personal budget, so I'm back to $3.33 a day! This time it may be more challenging because my youngest son is a very active athlete and has convinced himself that he needs to be eating meat. Obviously, I will not be cooking meat for him. He can eat that at his dads house, but I do need to make him large quantities of food that will satisfy him. Stay tuned for that!
One of the biggest questions/comments/complaints I have received from this blog is that I don't post recipes. The reason why I don't post them is because almost all of the time I cook, I don't use them and to stop and write them down would be a total pain in the you know what! I really want to give you guys METHODS of doing things. Think of this blog as a template! I will write down a recipe or two a week though , for those of you who really want one... but I encourage all of you to experiment with spices and flavors because that is what cooking is all about!
Sooo, onto cooking! The other day I cooked up a pound of lentils. I have used this in several ways so far; a filling for tacos, on top of a salad and a Middle Eastern spread similar to hummus. This morning, I needed a quick brunch type meal that will hold me over for quite a few hours, so I made a 20 minute soup. I added onion, garlic, sweet potato, balsamic vinegar, siracha, spices (cumin, coriander, chipotle) and some gluten free pasta ends. I brought it to a strong simmer and 20 minutes later, I had 6 cups of healthy and frugal soup. I stirred in a tiny bit of my Middle Eastern spread to round out the flavors before eating.

So... what happens when an Oklahoma reporter points out to HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius that that Obamacare is very unpoular in his state? Well, nothing happens. Sebelius sits there silent. The poor reporter thought they had lost the audio feed to Sebelius, until she points out she can hear him. Incredibly awkward.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Lawmakers will have a new proposal to consider for fixing the state's multibillion-dollar pension crisis when a group of lawmakers introduce new legislation Wednesday, but it likely won't be clear until next month whether the new approach can help break a yearslong stalemate on the issue.
The new legislation — to be proposed by Rep. Elaine Nekritz, a Democrat who chairs the House Pension Committee, and about a dozen colleagues — is aimed at reducing the state's unfunded $95 billion liability by raising employee contributions, introducing a tiered retirement age and phasing in a plan to share costs with school districts.
The proposal would have to overcome lingering partisan divisions over the issue in Springfield, and it was unclear if it would get the support of Gov. Pat Quinn and Democratic legislative leaders who hope to have a solution in the works for the Legislature's planned lame-duck session in January.
A spokeswoman for the governor, Brooke Anderson, would say only that the new plan is "a welcome contribution."
Illinois' pension crisis is among the worst in the nation, but lawmakers have been unable to agree on sweeping legislation needed to fix it. Negotiations broke down last spring over a proposal to make the state's school districts pick up their own employees' pensions costs, and no progress was made at a later special session called by Quinn.
Nekritz would not comment on the details of the new proposal, described in a news release from her office as offering "a balanced plan to simultaneously bring state pension costs under control for the long term and provide retirement security for hundreds of thousands of state workers and teachers."
But Rep. Mike Zalewski, another Democrat involved, said it would require employees to contribute 2 percent more to their own retirement funds. It also would create a tiered system for retirement age eligibility: Older workers would be able to retire at the same age at which they are currently eligible, while younger employees would have to work longer.
The proposal shifts some of the cost of teachers' retirement contributions to school districts, but the shift would be phased in over time.
"I asked myself (when considering the proposal) 'Is this something workers can live with?'" Zalewski said. "Ultimately, I'd say it is."
Republicans and a few Democrats have opposed that cost shift in the past, saying local districts would have to raise property taxes in order to take on the added financial burden.
The plan being negotiated last spring from Quinn and Democratic legislative leaders had called for reducing the state's annual pension costs by cutting pension benefits, despite union opposition. It also limited the 3 percent cost-of-living increase for retirees, compounded annually, to 3 percent or half the rate of inflation, whichever is lower. The increases would not be compounded.
Wednesday is the final day of the fall veto session, so any progress on pensions wasn't expected until the first week in January. That's when the current General Assembly will reconvene for its final days before a new group of lawmakers is sworn in Jan. 9, creating a short window in which several dozen lame-duck legislators can vote without worrying about re-election.
Quinn has said he wants to get a deal on a pension fix by that date, and his office has said repeatedly that pension reform is his top priority. A spokesman said last week Quinn and his staff have been meeting with lawmakers to try to secure support, and the governor's office recently unveiled a grassroots campaign to garner public support for reforms.

It's a popular stunt popping up on YouTube -- swallow a spoonful of cinnamon and get a laugh as you cough and hurry for a glass of water, but doctors say the so-called "cinnamon challenge" isn't a harmless dare.
Health officials say inhaling cinnamon can cause serious lung problems, even sending some to the hospital.
In ancient times, cinnamon was so valuable it was used as gifts for kings and deities. Doctors also used it to treat everything from sore throats to low libido. In small doses, the ground tree bark can be good for you, but not if you breathe it in.
"A little cinnamon sprinkled on your food is great, but trying to swallow the dry powder in teaspoon amounts is not a good idea," warned Dr. David Roberts.
The goal of the "cinnamon challenge" is to swallow a spoonful of ground cinnamon in 60 seconds without any water. Videos of people eating teaspoons to ladles full and then coughing up a cloud of "dragon's breath" while onlookers laugh in the background are being uploaded in droves.
Most people have cinnamon in their kitchen cabinets as it is used for spicing up everything from cereals, apple pie and even stir fry, but the newest food fad involving the powdered product could do much more than leave a bad taste in your mouth.
Roberts told FOX 9 News that cinnamon can burn your throat and gulping it down in large quantities can cause choking, breathing trouble and even a collapsed lung.
"What we're worried about is: People can inhale the powder into their lungs while they are trying to swallow it, gagging, choking on it," Roberts explained. "If they have asthma, it can cause wheezing, shortness of breath."
Roberts said the tiny granules can also cause scarring in the lungs, and could result in chronic lung disease.
According to Roberts, the Hennepin Regional Poison Control Hotline has taken seven calls since the beginning of last year regarding the cinnamon challenge, mostly from teenagers who found out the hard way they weren't up for it.
"Most people try it once," he said. "It's so unpleasant their friends are more likely to be entertained than they are -- not very pleasant to choke and gag."
At least 30 teenagers across the country have been hospitalized in the past year after taking up the challenge, and hundreds more called poison control centers for help.

Breast Cancer Pub Crawl with CustomInk by Saving_Second_Base - about 5 years ago
"We were hosting a charity event to raise money for the Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk. We had a pub crawl and decided that beer koozies were a great gift for the participants. Our theme was "Save Second Base" and we had approximately 70 people participate in the pub crawl and raised $1100 in just a few hours. Everyone loved the koozies made by CustomInk and used them throughout the crawl."

From her cream white petals to her supple stem. The nectar that she carried was transposed into a hymn.
"I must use my moments wisely, for they shall soon pass away... And be lost to me forever... A mere memory of my yesterdays...
"Thus she sung
And thus she cried.
Her voice set to harp
And lyre. So true a call
So true a heart did Zeus himself see...
"Come now unto
Mt Olympus
Oh white Iris,
And our announcer be"...
She floated along
In such a curving grace...
Transposed she was
In time and space...
The blessed arched path
Which she did go,
Became the journey for
All our eternal rainbows.

text: I have a 2001 outback, 2.5l auto trans. my rear tires don't spin when I am in mud, on a steep hill, or in the rain when I floor it. I put my car on jack stands and put it in drive. The rears turn and when I set the e brake all 4 stop, but like i said if i pull on a steep slick hill I can sit watching out the window and am certian the fronts spin but the rears dont. I do have some chatter when turning sharp on cement. The trans fluid has been flushed. I am thinking worn clutches in awd tranfer case. Also the transmission is from a 2004 but I called the dealer and gave them the vin of my car, and the car the tranmission came out of and the gear rations were identical. So any help is great, I would love to not half to spend 1500 dollars at the dealer to get the clutch pack put in, but darn if I do. Thanks!

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - More than $4.3 million in federal emergency food and shelter assistance is headed to Ohio counties.
The total was recently announced by the State Set-Aside Committee, a panel of charitable organizations and state social services agencies. Awards were down 47% in 2011, and down another 3% this year.
Committee chairwoman Barbara Sykes called it unfortunate that the amount has fallen as the need for emergency food and shelter is on the increase.
Fifty counties are set to receive direct awards totaling nearly $3.8 million, with another $530,000 being split among 65 counties.
The amount represents about 82 cents for each Ohioan living under the poverty line, unemployed, receiving food-stamp assistance or qualifying as "food insecure."

LONDON (Reuters) - Richard Branson said he planned to keep control of Virgin Atlantic
"Rumors have been spread in the press that I am planning to give up control of Virgin Atlantic and, according to Willie Walsh ... that our brand will soon disappear. This is wishful thinking and totally misguided," Branson said on Monday.
Delta is in talks with Singapore Airlines
IAG chief executive Walsh told the Daily Telegraph newspaper that Delta's main interest in Virgin Atlantic was its lucrative slots at London's Heathrow airport and the U.S. carrier would not want to keep the Virgin brand.
Separately on Monday, a source familiar with Branson's thinking told Reuters that Virgin Atlantic would form a joint venture on transatlantic flights with Delta if the U.S. carrier bought Singapore Airlines' stake in the British carrier.
Delta and Virgin Atlantic's plan to set up a revenue-sharing deal on flights between Britain and the United States would involve code-sharing, allowing both to sell flights on the other airline and share revenues from ticket sales, the source said.
The joint venture could lead to the pair sharing costs and bringing prices and schedules into line, the source said.
The partnership would be similar to that operated by American Airlines
Delta has long hoped to break into capacity-constrained Heathrow. Virgin Atlantic is the second-largest carrier at the airport after BA.
A combination with Delta, the second-largest U.S. airline by revenue after United Continental
Delta and Singapore Airlines are close to striking a deal on a Virgin Atlantic stake the Asian carrier bought for 600 million pounds in 1999, the source said.
Earlier this month, sources said Delta was keen to see Air France-KLM
The European Union requires EU carriers to be under European control, meaning Delta would need an EU airline as a partner if it wanted majority control of Virgin Atlantic. If Air France-KLM were to buy a small part of Branson's stake, then Virgin Atlantic could continue to be European controlled.

Norwich, Vermont - October 8, 2010
The contraption he stands on may look a little crazy, but it's helping snowboarder Kevin Pearce get back on the slopes.
"Just to have a feel of some kind of board is fun for me because of how much I love being on boards," Pearce said.
Boarding was Pearce's life until an accident on a training run last year left him near death. It's difficult to believe looking at him, but Pearce started his recovery learning to swallow; walking came months later.
"I do remember I used to walk down the hall and I would look left or right and I'd fall over... and my balance was that bad at one point," Pearce said.
From world class athlete to re-learning how to balance on a board and ball. Pearce is passionate about getting better-- pushing himself-- his doctors say his dedication is why he can even walk.
"It feels really good. It definitely feels like it is balance work," Pearce said. "My legs are a bit tired... you can see they are shaking and they never used to shake... that's kind of weird."
The board-- called a Vew-do Balance Board-- was invented 25 years ago by Brew Moscarello.
"The idea came from snowboarding actually," Moscarello said. "I had been teaching Stratton Mountain in the early days of snowboarding and realizing there was a need to teach people balance before getting on snow."
It may look familiar to some-- it's inspired by the bongo boards from the 1950s, but given a modern twist so athletes can do tricks and move in different directions.
In addition to therapy it's used for training by athletes in the NFL and boxers. Pearce also used one for years before his accident and wanted to jump back on while he was still in the hospital and had trouble walking.
Kevin Pearce: So when these guys sent me the Vew-do board and I had the idea of getting on it because I was so excited to do something fun they were like... um.... I don't know about this it is a bit sketchy. But I did jump on it and I could do it right away.
Reporter Kristin Carlson: So you couldn't walk backward but you could balance on a board.
Peace: Exactly, because I had no muscle memory of walking backwards but I had been using these things for so long it wasn't a problem which was pretty interesting to me.
Pearce is used to being extreme and extremely talented. Once considered an Olympic hopeful, he knows he'll never get back to that level.
Carlson: So is that frustrating for you because you are remembering where you used to be or is the feeling of at least I'm on a board?
Pearce: It's the feeling of at least I'm on a board... Just being able to do that so quickly was exciting, so I knew I'd be able to get back to the point where I was.
Carlson: And as you told me earlier, you do plan to snowboard again?
Pearce: Totally so this is helping me get a feel on the board.
The Vew-do boards were originally made in Vermont, but founder Moscarello moved production to Asia. He was disappointed with quality and moved production to Maine. Now, after finding a manufacturing partner in Vermont who can make the boards, production in Rutland is set to start Monday.
"We take great pride in our state as well as our products and there is something to be said about a made in Vermont product," Moscarello said.
A board that is helping Vermonter Kevin Pearce recover. It's a painstaking process every day. But you can see joy when he's on the board. It beats the treadmill any day.
"I don't enjoy any other therapies on my own, but this is one that is fun for me," he said.
And while we were watching, Pearce he learned a new trick.
"It is amazing to see you progressing so quickly," Moscarello said to him.
"That is the coolest thing," Pearce said. "I'm going to have to do it all the time. I am going to get good at that."
Determination that's bringing results.
There are 11 different Vew-do balance boards... depending on how people want to use them. They range in cost from $70-$150. Click here for more information.

A Louisville landmark will be coming down with the hiring of a contractor to demolish 22 concrete silos that spell out University of Louisville.
The UofL Foundation said Friday it has hired a demolition firm to begin work to clear the site along Interstate 65.
The school says the winning bidder submitted the lowest proposed price of $687,800 for the project.
The firm will remove the silos and several smaller structures on the 15-acre site.
UofL's foundation purchased the property for $3.3 million from Solae Co., a DuPont subsidiary, last December.
The university hasn't disclosed its long-term plans for the property on the edge of campus. The school says that in the short term, the property will be used for parking for football games at nearby Papa John's Cardinal Stadium.

Another Sierra Nevada Classic, another title for Oakdale junior Nico Colunga.
Three games in three days made for a busy stretch of basketball for Oakdale's varsity boys but coach Jeremy Fields says the more games, the better.
Logan Eaton doubled up on 2012 title at the Morningstar Invitational; Trevor Williams pinned, pinned and majored Josh Bustamante 15-7 in the final, middleweights Tanner Reeves and Abel Garcia took home titles and along with a third place by Justin Jacobsen, Frankie Trent and Nico Colunga, the Oakdale Mustangs went on to finish second as a team at the Morningstar Invitational in Los Banos.
The week between Christmas and New Year is always busy on the basketball court for the Mustangs.
Oakdale's varsity Lady Mustangs girls' basketball team improved to 5-1 on the young season after defeating the Summerville Bears 47-26 at Summerville and topping Livingston by a 46-32 final.
The James Riddle Invitational took in 20 teams and stepped up a notch in competition in its 38th year, but Oakdale, led by two individual champions in junior Logan Eaton and freshman Abel Garcia, kept the title on the home turf.
Red faces, scorched lungs and live action anxiety was evident on all three mats during Oakdale's Friday night spirited home scrimmage against Pitman High.
Riverbank's court, Riverbank's sport and it showed in a contest against riverside neighbor Oakdale on Friday night.
2013 should be good, but 2014 could be great.
Pushed to Saturday afternoon for fan safety, it was the referees' calls that nearly started a riot at the second round playoff match-up between the Oakdale High Mustangs and the Sacramento High School Dragons on Saturday, Nov. 23. The 9-2 Dragons had not won a playoff game in over 40 years until last week when they beat Benicia 40-35 in a first round match-up.
Who wants to host these Mustangs now?
This one hurts.
What a way to celebrate Senior Night.
Two second half goals by Oakdale followed by two retaliation yellow cards by rival Sonora was the story of the regular season finale 2-0 win last week for the varsity soccer Mustangs.
With the preseason winding down, Oakdale's fall sports are gearing up for league play, with some already into their league schedule. The following is a quick glance at some of the Mustangs' week in review.
If you were anywhere in the city limits of Oakdale on Friday night, odds are you could probably hear the stomping of the feet from both Oakdale and Turlock fans hitting the bleachers, roars from both sides of the field, the hard hits or even the rich voice of Mustang announcer Pete Simoncini. However, if you didn't witness the Mustangs late fourth quarter heroics live from The Corral, you missed something special. The varsity Mustangs found themselves on the winning end of a 30-29 nail bitter against visiting Turlock in non-league play.
With a solid 3-2-3 record thus far, coach Alfredo Quiroga and the Oakdale High School boys soccer team are optimistic about the upcoming regular season.
Friday night football is back at The Corral as the Mustangs hosted longtime rivals, the Sonora Wildcats in the 2014 season opener. Even though Sonora is no longer in the Valley Oak League, the rivalry between the two schools went on for 91 years in league play and still holds up as a big rivalry in California.
The long awaited Oakdale High School football 2014 season is under way. After spring and summer workouts, two-a-days once practices could officially begin earlier this month, and team meetings, the Mustangs hosted a home scrimmage against the Tracy Bulldogs on Saturday, Aug. 23.
Thirty-two local sports legends – including an Oakdale icon – will be inducted into the 2014 Sac-Joaquin Section Hall of Fame later this month. Representing Oakdale High School is decorated basketball coach and athletic director Norm Antinetti.
With school starting up this week, the athletic programs don't waste any time, as many of the practices for the fall campaign will start on Monday, Aug. 11. Here is a brief rundown of the teams that will be hitting the playing fields and courts this fall.

DANISH AMBASSADOR VISITS A different kind of capitalismBy Gayle Hanson
Staff Writer | May 20,2013Stefan Hard / Staff Photo
Danish ambassador Peter Taksoe-Jensen addresses a gathering Sunday at Montpelier High School. The ambassador has been on a speaking tour of Vermont with Sen. Bernard Sanders, I-Vt.MONTEPLIER Sen. Bernard Sanders has been introducing Denmarks U.S. Ambassador Peter Teksoe-Jensen around the state for the past few days at a series of town hall meetings designed to provoke a reset in thinking about the words welfare state.
Sure, says Sanders, the Danes pay the highest income taxes in the world, but they are also recognized as some of the happiest people on the globe. Sunday the senator and his guest challenged the packed audience at Montpelier High School to think beyond our national boundaries, and examine how one country has achieved the good life for the vast majority of its residents.
One of the things that we dont talk about as a nation is the degree to which our people are stressed out, said Sanders. The debate needs to take place. What kind of society do we want to live in.
If you listen to the ambassador extoll the virtues of the Danish social welfare state, it sounds almost Utopian. No one is allowed to be poor, said the ambassador,adding that one would actually have to struggle to avoid the safety net built into the Danish system.
There are two sides of the coin, he said. What is the cost of having a welfare state? We are the country in the world that has the highest taxes. We have an income tax of 40 percent but if you are wealthy it is 63 percent. We have a value added tax of 25 percent. We pay $8 at the pump for gas.
So what does that tax system buy the average Dane? According to Teksoe-Jensen, what they get for the tax dollar is a system in which no one goes hungry and there is free health care from cradle to grave. The country pays for assistance so elderly people can remain in their homes. There is no cost for education from kindergarten through university. Mothers can take a year off on paid maternity leave. Everyone enjoys five weeks vacation.
When I go back to Washington tomorrow, the debate is do we do what the House wants and cut $20 billion in food assistance, or do we do what the Senate wants and cuts $4 billion in assistance, Sanders said, adding that instead we should be looking for ways to end hunger once and for all.
Sanders is the one of the nations strongest advocates for progressive values. And the independent senators office fields calls from around the nation. I have lots of respect for the people answering those phones. They are hearing Ive lost my home. I cant feed my kids. My mother cant keep warm and she cant get heating assistance.
Those kinds of calls dont happen in Denmark, he said. And the health system in Denmark is a marvel.
Danes have absolutely free care. Do you know the anxiety that people feel when they are sick? asked Sanders.
We lose 45,000 people every year who dont get to the doctor when they should. What would it mean if the cost of health care was off your shoulders? But despite universal access to free care, Sanders says the actual cost of health care for Denmark is lower than that in the U.S. despite the benefits.
Denmark spends 9.5 percent of their gross domestic product on health care. We pay 17 or 18 percent, Sanders said.
And, he added, the health care in Denmark is as good as we get here. Teksoe-Jensen admitted that he had no concept of the notion of pre-existing conditions.
But while the Danish system seems generous beyond belief, Teksoe-Jensen said that Denmark was having to take a close look at trying to make sure that it had a working population that could pay the taxes so that the next generation could continue to enjoy the same generous benefits.
When asked about pay scales for teachers in his nation, the ambassador said he didnt know the exact amount of money but that it was a middle income job. He added that there had recently been a month-long nationwide teachers strike.
Sanders put in a plug for a progressive and simplified tax system after an audience member asked about a 6 percent flat income tax. The more you make the more you pay, he said. On the other hand what we have is an enormously complicated system. It is not complicated by accident but because powerful special interests can get language put in the tax code.
But if the Danish ambassador cast a spell over the assembled that will probably result in more than a view dreams of Copenhagen, the reality is that Denmark first set out on its system of social welfare back in the 18th century, when it instituted payments to the poor. There are 5.5 million residents in the country, compared to the U.S. population of 315 million. And it is governed as a constitutional monarchy, with a prime minister and parliament. Election seasons last all of three weeks. And any super-wealthy Dane with an eye towards achieving political power through the purchase of television ads wouldnt be taken seriously, according to Teksoe-Jensen.
It just wouldnt work, said the ambassador.
As one audience member pointed out, Our country started in the 17th century with everybody wearing guns.
Not surprisingly, the conversation eventually turned to a discussion of whether or not Denmark was a socialist welfare state. Teksoe-Jensen was firm in his assertion that Denmark was a capitalist economy, but with a different set of values. I am not arguing against capitalism, he said. We consider ourselves capitalist, but weve added a social dimension to our capitalist system.MORE IN Vermont NewsGoddard College is getting national attention for its choice in commencement speaker for the...
